• Constant currency Revenues of $123.3 million in Q2 2023 increased 7.2% Year-over-Year as compared to $114.9 million in Q2 2022

• Q2 2023 GAAP operating income of $29.1 million, a decrease of 3.3% over Q2 2022 operating income of $30.1 million, impacted adversely by certain debt related expenses

• Q2 2023 Non-GAAP operating income of $34.6 million, an increase of 1.8% over Q2 2022 Non-GAAP operating income of $34.0 million

• GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.01 in Q2 2023 vs. $0.63 in Q2 2022 on account of $18.0 million in higher non-operating costs in Q2 2023 (equivalent to $0.59 in diluted EPS) as compared to Q2 2022, with the increased costs primarily associated with our lending facilities.

Ebix delivered the following results for the second quarter of 2023:

(dollar amounts in thousands)
Channel Revenues	Q2 2023		Q2 2022		Change
Exchanges	$	98,078	$	95,087		+3.1	%
RCS		20,352		19,837		+2.6	%
Total Revenue	$	118,430	$	114,924		+3.1	%
Total Constant Currency Revenue	$	123,255	$	114,924		+7.2	%

Note - Q2 2022 Revenues are non-GAAP with all revenues normalized on a net basis, for comparative purposes.

Operating Income: GAAP operating income for Q2 2023 of $29.1 million decreased 3.3% year-over-year from $30.1 million in Q2 2022, primarily due to certain debt related costs. Non-GAAP operating income for Q2 2023 increased by 1.8% to $34.6 million as compared to $34.0 million in Q2 2022.

Earnings per Share and Net Income: Q2 2023 GAAP diluted earnings per share was at $0.01 compared to $0.63 in Q2 2022. The decrease was primarily due to increased year-over-year debt facility related costs of $16.2 million, and a foreign exchange differential loss of $4.1 million as compared to Q2 2022, a cumulative negative effect of $0.66 in diluted earnings per share, offset by lower year-over-year taxes of $2.3 million (translating to a positive effect of $0.07 in diluted earnings per share).

Q2 2023 GAAP net income decreased to $0.3 million compared to $19.3 million in Q2 2022, primarily on account of the above increased non-operating costs.

Q3 2023 Diluted Share Count: As of today, Ebix expects its diluted share count for Q3 2023 to be approximately 30.9 million.

Amit Kumar Garg, CFO added, “In Q2 2023, EBITDA plus noncash stock compensation added to $34.03 million, which translates to approximately 28.7% of our worldwide revenues. That speaks to the strength and fundamentals of our business worldwide. During the six month period ended June 30, 2023, we had the following major cash uses amongst other cash uses for operations: (i) $36.3 million of cash interest paid; (ii) $19.2 million for income-related taxes paid globally, (iii) $15 million paid for principal payments (iv) $7.9 million was used for capital expenditure and (v) $ 0.5 million was used for software development. We funded these initiatives from existing cash plus operating cash flows generated during the year. Despite these substantial payments adding to $79 million just for these items, the Company had strong liquidity on hand with cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and restricted cash of $ 88.3 million.”

Robin Raina, President & CEO, Ebix, Inc. said. “Our operating results in Q2 2023 are in line with our expectations. We are fully aware that non-operating costs like the cost of debt and the associated advisory costs associated with it, continue to hamper our overall financial results. We are accordingly still committed to the aspirational goal of a debt-free Ebix in the year 2023 itself.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Metrics

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP Revenues, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP operating income , non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share from operations exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, as well as certain non-recurring expenses that are not associated with our ongoing operating business activities.

Ebix believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Ebix’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures and other metrics to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics to investors.

Management of the Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Ebix urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including the financial tables at the end of this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

The reported figures have been summarized as compared to those presented thus for better understanding of the quantum of business undertaken in the United States and other countries. Further, the product/service channels, Ebixcash Exchange and Insurance Exchange have been merged as Exchange.

The Registrant’s subsidiary, EbixCash Limited has filed a draft red herring prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Board of India and is in the process of executing an initial public offering of its equity shares, subject to market conditions and regulatory approvals. The financial information of EbixCash Limited consolidated into our financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is summary, indicative and not final.
