SELECTQUOTE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business—SelectQuote, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “SelectQuote”) contracts with insurance carriers to sell senior health, life, and auto and home insurance policies by telephone to individuals throughout the United States through the use of multi-channel marketing and advertising campaigns. The Company obtains leads from, among other sources, InsideResponse, a wholly-owned subsidiary that provides sales leads to the consumer insurance industry. The Company also coordinates various healthcare-related services through its Population Health platform, which includes SelectRx, a closed-door, long-term care pharmacy that offers pharmacy services, including essential prescription medications, OTC medications, customized medication packaging, medication therapy management, and other consultative services under the Patient Centered Pharmacy Home (PCPH) model. SelectQuote’s Senior division sells Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, Medicare Part D, and other ancillary senior health insurance related products, and along with Population Health and InsideResponse, is referred to as “Senior”. SelectQuote’s Life division (“Life”) sells term life, final expense, and other ancillary products, and SelectQuote’s Auto & Home division (“Auto & Home”) primarily sells non-commercial auto and home property and casualty insurance products. SelectQuote’s licensed insurance agents provide comparative rates from a variety of insurance carriers relying on our technology distribution channel with a combination of proprietary and commercially available software to perform its quote service and sell insurance policies on behalf of the insurance carriers. The Company primarily earns revenue in the form of commission payments from the insurance carriers. Commission payments are received both when the initial policy is sold (“first year”) and when the underlying policyholder renews their policy in subsequent years (“renewal”). The Company also receives certain volume-based bonuses from some carriers on first-year policies sold based on attaining various predetermined target sales levels or other agreed upon objectives. These bonuses are referred to as “production bonuses” or “marketing development funds.” Additionally, the Company earns revenue from its Population Health platform, mail-order prescription revenue from SelectRx, and lead generation revenue from InsideResponse.
Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SelectQuote, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries: SelectQuote Insurance Services, SelectQuote Auto & Home Insurance Services, LLC (“SQAH”), ChoiceMark Insurance Services, Inc., Tiburon Insurance Services, InsideResponse, LLC, and SelectQuote Ventures, Inc. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with those rules and regulations and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021, as amended by the Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on February 14, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”) and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position for the periods presented. Our results for the periods presented in our financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period, including for the year ending June 30, 2022, and therefore should not be relied upon as an indicator of future results. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2021. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform with current year presentation.
Use of Estimates—The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company regularly assesses these estimates; however, actual amounts could differ from those estimates. The most significant items involving management’s estimates include estimates of revenue recognition, accounts receivable, commissions receivable, the provision for income taxes, share-based
7
compensation, and valuation of intangible assets and goodwill. The impact of changes in estimates is recorded in the period in which they become known.
Going Concern—The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company is required to maintain a certain asset coverage ratio, as discussed further in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2022, the Company is in compliance with all of its debt covenants; however, our financial projections indicate that, based on our current business plan, we will not maintain the required asset coverage ratio within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Failure to maintain the required ratio would constitute a violation of our obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and would permit our lenders to declare us in default. In the event of a default, our lenders could accelerate all amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay such indebtedness. We have commenced discussions of a covenant waiver or modification with our lenders; however, the Company cannot provide any assurances that it will be successful in obtaining such a waiver or modification on acceptable terms, or at all. As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Seasonality—Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage for the following year during the Medicare annual enrollment period (“AEP”), which runs from October through December each year, and are allowed to switch plans from an existing plan during the open enrollment period (“OEP”), which runs from January through March each year. As a result, commission revenue for our Senior segment is highest in the second quarter and to a lesser extent, the third quarter during OEP. Most policies sold during AEP are effective as of and renew annually on January 1.
Significant Accounting Policies—There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in our 2021 Annual Report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted—In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. Prior to this ASU, an acquirer generally recognizes contract assets acquired and contract liabilities assumed that arose from contracts with customers at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is to be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendment (or if adopted early as of an interim period, as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application). The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance, which will depend on the contract assets and liabilities acquired in future business combinations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted—In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies and changes the accounting for certain income tax transactions, among other minor improvements. This standard was effective for the Company on July 1, 2021, and did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Immaterial Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements—Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021 and as previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company discovered that the provision for first
8
year commission revenue for certain final expense policies offered by one of its insurance carrier partners should have been accrued based on a higher lapse rate. The error in the lapse rate resulted in commission revenue being misstated by $6.1 million and $2.0 million, for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Accounts receivable was misstated by $8.1 million and $2.0 million as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The impact of the error on net income for the year ended June 30, 2021, was a decrease of $4.8 million. Management evaluated this misstatement and concluded it was not material to prior periods, individually or in aggregate. However, correcting the cumulative effect of the error in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, would have had a significant effect on the results of operations. Therefore, the Company elected to correct the relevant prior period condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for this error for comparative purposes.
The following tables reflect the effects of the correction on all affected line items of the Company’s previously reported condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q:

2.ACQUISITIONS
In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, the Company allocates the purchase price of its acquisitions to the tangible assets, liabilities, and intangible assets acquired based on fair values. Any excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The fair value assigned to intangible assets acquired is supported by valuations using estimates and assumptions provided by management. Based on the valuation inputs, the Company has recorded assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities | ||||
Level 2 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | ||||
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability |
Lead distribution company—On February 1, 2021, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of a lead distribution company for an aggregate purchase price of up to $33.5 million (subject to customary adjustments), as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated February 1, 2021 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). The purchase price is comprised of $30.0 million, of which $24.0 million was paid in cash at the closing of the transaction, with an additional $6.0 million of holdback for indemnification claims, net working capital adjustments, and underperformance. Additionally, the purchase price includes an earnout of up to $3.5 million. The primary purpose of the acquisition was to secure and incorporate the exclusive publisher relationships into the lead generation business of InsideResponse. The Company recorded $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs in general and administrative operating costs and expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
During calendar year 2021, the lead distribution company did not achieve the minimum earnout target as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. However, the remaining holdback was earned in full, as the lead distribution company did not fall below the underperformance thresholds as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company settled the remaining holdback of $5.5 million, with interest, after the net working capital true-up of $0.5 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the total consideration for the acquisition consisted of the following as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
Base purchase price | $ | 30,000 | |||
Net working capital true-up | (499) | ||||
Total Purchase Consideration | $ | 29,501 |
At the date of acquisition, the fair value of net tangible assets acquired approximated their carrying value. The non-compete agreements were valued using the income approach, and the customer relationships were valued
11
using the multiple period excess earnings method. As such, all aforementioned intangible assets were valued using Level 3 inputs.
Goodwill resulting from the transaction constitutes the excess of the consideration paid over the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and primarily represents the benefits of leveraging the exclusive publisher relationships in the business. This acquired goodwill is allocated to Senior (which is also the reporting unit), and $1.6 million will be deductible for tax purposes after adding back acquisition costs and having settled the remaining holdback.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
Description | Estimated Life | Amount | ||||||
Accounts receivable | $ | 1,301 | ||||||
Total tangible assets acquired | 1,301 | |||||||
Non-compete agreements | 5 years | 1,000 | ||||||
Vendor relationships | 9 years | 23,700 | ||||||
Goodwill | Indefinite | 3,500 | ||||||
Total intangible assets acquired | 28,200 | |||||||
Net Assets Acquired | $ | 29,501 |
The Company will amortize the intangible assets acquired on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lives, ranging from to nine years.
Express Med Pharmaceuticals—On April 30, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Express Med Pharmaceuticals, Inc., now SelectRx, a closed-door, long term care pharmacy provider, for an aggregate purchase price of up to $24.0 million (subject to customary adjustments), as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement dated April 30, 2021 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). The aggregate purchase price of up to $24.0 million is comprised of $17.5 million in cash paid at the closing of the transaction, an additional $2.5 million of holdback for indemnification claims, if any, and an earnout of up to $4.0 million, if any. The primary purpose of the acquisition was to take advantage of the Company's technology and customer base to facilitate better patient care through coordination of strategic, value-based care partnerships. The Company recorded $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs in general and administrative operating costs and expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. In addition, as a result of the acquisition, the Company has entered into an operating lease with the former President and Chief Executive Officer of Express Med Pharmaceuticals, now our Executive Vice President of SelectRx. Refer to Note 6 in the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.
The earnout of up to $4.0 million is comprised of two separate provisions. The first provision provides for an earnout of up to $3.0 million and is contingent upon achievement of the following within the first 20 months following the acquisition: facility updates that would allow for processing a minimum of 75,000 active patients, the issuance of pharmacy licenses in all 50 states, and active patients of 15,000 or more. The second provision provides for an earnout of up to $1.0 million and is contingent upon achievement of the following within 36 months following the acquisition: construction of a new facility to accommodate the servicing of additional active patients or 75,000 or more active patients as of the last day of any month prior to the end of the second earnout provision period or as of the end of the second earnout provision period. As the earnout payment is contingent upon continued employment of certain individuals, the Company will recognize the earnout as compensation expense in general and administrative operating costs and expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income in the period in which it is earned. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has not accrued an earnout payment based on performance to date. The $2.5 million of holdback will be due upon the 15-month anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition.

Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, total consideration in the acquisition consisted of the following as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
Base purchase price | $ | 20,000 | |||
Net working capital true-up | (483) | ||||
Closing cash | 20 | ||||
Total purchase consideration | $ | 19,537 |
At the date of acquisition, the fair value of net tangible assets acquired, excluding property and equipment, approximated their carrying value. The property and equipment was valued primarily using the cost and sales comparison approach to value. For the proprietary software acquired, the replacement cost method under the cost approach was used, estimating the cost to rebuild the software. The non-compete agreement was valued using the income approach, and the customer relationships were valued using the multiple period excess earnings method. As such, all aforementioned intangible assets were valued using Level 3 inputs.
Goodwill resulting from the transaction constitutes the excess of the consideration paid over the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and primarily represents the additional value of the synergies of combining the SelectRx business with the Company's technology and existing customer base. This acquired goodwill is allocated to Senior (which is also the reporting unit), and the Company expects approximately $16.3 million to be deductible for tax purposes after adding back acquisition costs and excluding the holdback not yet paid.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
Description | Estimated Life | Amount | ||||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 20 | ||||||
Accounts receivable | 613 | |||||||

The Company will amortize the intangible assets acquired on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lives, ranging from to five years.
Simple Meds—On August 31, 2021, SelectRx acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Simple Meds, a full-service pharmaceutical distributor, for an aggregate purchase price of $7.0 million (subject to
13
customary adjustments), as set forth in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated August 31, 2021. The aggregate purchase price of $7.0 million was paid in cash at the closing of the transaction. The primary purpose of the acquisition was to accelerate the expansion of the prescription drug management business by combining the operations and existing infrastructure of Simple Meds into SelectRx.
Under the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, total consideration in the acquisition consisted of the following as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
Base purchase price | $ | 7,000 | |||
Net working capital true-up | 347 | ||||
Closing cash | 61 | ||||
Total purchase consideration | $ | 7,408 |
At the date of acquisition, the fair value of net tangible assets acquired approximated their carrying value. The customer relationships were valued using the multiple period excess earnings method, and as such, were valued using Level 3 inputs.
Goodwill resulting from the transaction constitutes the excess of the consideration paid over the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and primarily represents the additional value of the synergies of combining the Simple Meds business with the Company's technology and existing customer base. This acquired goodwill is allocated to Senior (which is also the reporting unit), and the Company expects approximately $5.6 million to be deductible for tax purposes after adding back acquisition costs.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):

5.INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL
Intangible assets—The Company's intangible assets include those acquired as part of the acquisitions listed in the table below (refer to Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details). The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Based on the Company’s third quarter analysis, no impairment was recorded on the Company’s long-lived assets.
Goodwill—The Company recorded as goodwill the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as part of the acquisitions listed in the table below (refer to Note
15
2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details). The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment assessment as of April 1, or more frequently if it believes that indicators of impairment exist. During each of the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no such indicators.
Goodwill is assigned to reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination as of the acquisition date and becomes identified with that reporting unit in its entirety. As such, the reporting unit as a whole supports the recovery of its goodwill. For the following acquisitions, the reporting units to which goodwill has been assigned and the associated reportable segments are as follows:

6.LEASES
The majority of the Company’s leases are operating leases related to office space for which the Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company leases office facilities in the United States in San Diego, California; Centennial, Colorado; Jacksonville, Florida; Overland Park, Kansas; Des Moines, Iowa; Oakland, California; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Monaca, Pennsylvania (note that SelectRx leases the Monaca facility from an Executive Vice President of SelectRx. The Company expects to incur $3.6 million in total rental payments over the initial ten-year term plus an additional five-year extension option that it is reasonably certain to exercise). The Company's operating leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year up to fourteen years.
On February 7, 2022 and April 6, 2022, the Company executed noncancelable subleases for a portion of its office facilities in Overland Park, Kansas. The former commenced March 23, 2022, while the latter commences September 2, 2022. These subleases run through the remaining term of their primary leases, which terminate July 31, 2029, and are expected to generate $11.9 million in sublease income, which will be recorded as a reduction of lease expense in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The Company may consider entering into additional sublease arrangements in the future.
In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company exercised an early termination option for the Des Moines, Iowa office lease, with a new termination date of September 30, 2022, resulting in an early termination penalty of $0.3 million, which was recorded as part of the remeasurement of the operating lease liability and will result in accelerated amortization of the right-of-use asset over the shortened remaining term of the lease.

On November 5, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement with UMB Bank N.A. (“UMB”) as a lender and revolving agent and Morgan Stanley Capital Administrators, Inc. as a lender and the administrative agent for a syndicate of lenders party to the agreement (replaced by Wilmington Trust as administrative agent effective February 24, 2022). On February 24, 2021, November 2, 2021, and December 23, 2021, the Company entered into amendments to the credit agreement (individually, the “First Amendment”, “Second Amendment”, and “Third Amendment”, together with the original credit agreement and any subsequent amendments, the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”) with certain of its existing lenders and new lenders. The First Amendment provided for an additional $231.0 million in term loans (together with the initial $425.0 million, the “Term Loans”) and added a $145.0 million senior secured delayed draw term loan facility (the "DDTL Facility"). The Second Amendment provided for additional commitments of $25.0 million, in addition to the initial $75.0 million, for the secured
18
revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and an additional $200.0 million under the DDTL Facility. The Third Amendment provided for additional commitments of $35.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. After giving effect to the amendments, in aggregate, the Senior Secured Credit Facility provides for (1) an aggregate principal amount of up to $135.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility (2) Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $656.0 million, of which $470.7 million is outstanding as of March 31, 2022, and (3) a $345.0 million DDTL Facility, of which $244.4 million is outstanding as of March 31, 2022. As of May 5, 2022, the available borrowing capacities under the Revolving Credit Facility and DDTL Facility were $135.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively.
In accordance with ASC 470-50-40 “Debt Modification and Extinguishments”, the Second and Third Amendments were accounted for as debt modifications, and the $3.0 million original issue discount paid to the two lenders of the DDTL Facility was capitalized and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the agreement through interest expense. Additionally, the Company paid $1.2 million in costs as part of the transaction that were included in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. As a result of the Third Amendment, the Company incurred $0.3 million of costs related to the new commitments, which costs were capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the agreement through interest expense.
The Revolving Credit Facility accrues interest on amounts drawn at a rate per annum equal to either (a) LIBOR plus 4.0% or (b) a base rate plus 3.0%, at the Company’s option, and the Company pays an unused commitment fee of 0.15% in respect of the unutilized commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Term Loans and the DDTL Facility bear interest on the outstanding principal amounts thereof at a rate per annum equal to either (a) LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.75%) plus 5.00% or (b) a base rate plus 4.00%, at the Company’s option, and the Company pays a ticking fee based on the average daily balance of the unused amount of the aggregate DDTL Facility commitments during the preceding fiscal quarter, multiplied by 1% per annum. The Senior Secured Credit Facility has a maturity date of November 5, 2024, with the Term Loans becoming mandatorily repayable as of March 31, 2022, in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans, with the remaining balance payable on the maturity date. The DDTL Facility also became mandatorily repayable beginning March 31, 2022, in equal quarterly installments equal to 0.25% of all DDTL Facility loans that have been outstanding for a full fiscal quarter prior to each such repayment date, with the remaining balance payable on the maturity date. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has made principal payments of $1.2 million and $0.6 million on the Term Loans and DDTL Facility, respectively. The remaining $100.0 million of the DDTL Facility may be drawn from time to time, subject to certain conditions, until January 15, 2023.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default and a financial covenant requiring the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to maintain a minimum asset coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of the required covenants. The obligations of the Company are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and secured by a security interest in all assets of the Company, subject to certain exceptions.
The Company has incurred a total of $27.1 million in debt issuance costs and debt discounts related to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, of which $22.9 million was capitalized and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the Senior Secured Credit Facility. Total amortization was $1.2 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $4.2 million and $2.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was included in interest expense, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge against its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates associated with the Term Loans. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had an outstanding receive-variable, pay-fixed interest rate swap on the notional amount of $325.0 million of the Company’s total outstanding Term Loans balance with a fixed rate of 5.00% plus 1.03% (the “Amended Interest Rate Swap”), which terminates on November 5, 2024. As of March 31, 2022, the Amended Interest Rate Swap had a fair value of $12.3 million and was recorded in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company classifies its Amended Interest Rate Swap as a Level 2 on the fair value hierarchy as the majority of the inputs used to value it primarily includes other than
19
quoted prices that are observable and it uses standard calculations and models that use readily observable market data as their basis. As of March 31, 2022, the Company estimates that $2.7 million will be reclassified into interest expense during the next twelve months.
8.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lease Obligations—Refer to Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for commitments related to our operating leases.
Legal Contingencies and Obligations—From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. Such matters may include insurance regulatory claims; commercial, tax, employment, or intellectual property disputes; matters relating to competition and sales practices; and claims for damages arising out of the use of the Company’s services. The Company may also become subject to lawsuits related to past or future acquisitions, divestitures, or other transactions, including matters related to representations and warranties, indemnities, and assumed or retained liabilities. The Company is not currently aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results, or cash flows; however, in the event of unexpected developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of certain ongoing matters, if unfavorable, could be materially adverse to our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operation, cash flows, or capital levels.
Securities Class Actions
As previously disclosed, the Company and certain of its executive officers and current and former directors have been named as defendants in two putative securities class actions lawsuits filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on August 17 and October 7, 2021, respectively. There have been no material developments in either of these matters since their disclosure in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Stockholder Derivative Suit
On March 25, 2022, a stockholder derivative action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by an alleged stockholder of the Company, purportedly on the Company’s behalf. The lawsuit was brought against certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers (together, the “Defendants”), and against the Company, as nominal defendant. The complaint, captioned Jadlow v. Danker, et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-00391-RGA, alleges that certain of the Defendants violated Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by making materially false and misleading statements and failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. The complaint also asserts claims against all Defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets based on the same general underlying conduct. The complaint also seeks contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act and Section 11(f) of the Securities Act from the individual defendants named in the Securities Class Actions. The complaint seeks unspecified damages for the Company, restitution, reformation and improvement of its corporate governance and internal procedures regarding compliance with laws, and reimbursement of costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company does not currently believe this matter will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity; however, this matter could be costly to defend and could divert the attention of management and other resources from operations.
9.SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Common Stock—As of March 31, 2022, the Company has reserved the following authorized, but unissued, shares of common stock:
20
Employee Stock Purchase Plan | 877,092 | |||||||
Stock awards outstanding under 2020 Plan | 4,752,141 | |||||||
Stock awards available for grant under 2020 Plan | 9,571,645 | |||||||
Options outstanding under 2003 Plan | 1,701,424 | |||||||
Total | 16,902,302 |
Share-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has awards outstanding from two share-based compensation plans: the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2003 Stock Plan”) and the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Stock Plan” and, collectively with the 2003 Stock Plan, the “Stock Plans”). However, no further awards will be made under the 2003 Stock Plan. The 2020 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (“ISO's”), nonstatutory stock options (“NSO's”), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards (“RSU's”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSU's”), and other forms of equity compensation (collectively, “stock awards”). All awards (other than ISOs, which may be granted only to current employees of the Company) may be granted to employees, non-employee directors, and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates.
The number of shares of common stock available for issuance as of March 31, 2022, pursuant to future awards under the Company's 2020 Stock Plan is 9,571,645. The number of shares of the Company's common stock reserved under the 2020 Stock Plan is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning on July 1, 2021, equal to 3% of the total outstanding shares of common stock as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of ISO's will be 4,000,000. The shares of common stock covered by any award (including any award granted pursuant to the 2003 Stock Plan) that is forfeited, terminated, expired, or lapsed without being exercised or settled for cash will again become available for issuance under the 2020 Stock Plan. With respect to any award, if the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligations are satisfied by delivering shares to the Company (by actual delivery or attestation), or if the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligations are satisfied by withholding shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the award, the share reserve shall nonetheless be reduced by the gross number of shares subject to the award.
The Company accounts for its share-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) which requires all share-based compensation to be recognized in the income statement based on fair value and applies to all awards granted, modified, canceled, or repurchased after the effective date.
Total share-based compensation for stock awards included in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income was as follows for the periods presented:

Total | $ | 2,029 | $ | 1,289 | $ | 5,820 | $ | 3,389 |
Stock Options—The stock options outstanding under the 2003 Stock Plan vest as to one-third after the vesting commencement date and as to 1/24 of the remaining shares subject to the stock option monthly thereafter, subject to the award recipient’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. Upon a termination of employment for any reason other than for “Cause” (as defined in the 2003 Stock Plan), any unvested and
21
outstanding stock options would generally be forfeited for no consideration, and any vested and outstanding stock options would remain exercisable for 90 days following the date of termination (and, in the case of a termination of employment due to death or disability, for 12 months following the date of termination). Stock options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The terms for ISO's and NSO's awarded in the 2020 Stock Plan are the same as in the 2003 Stock Plan with the exception that the options generally shall vest and become exercisable in four equal installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the award recipient’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. Stock options are granted with an exercise price that is no less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of the grant.
The fair value of each option (for purposes of calculation of share-based compensation expense) is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that uses assumptions determined as of the date of the grant. Use of this option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them (“expected term”), the estimated volatility of the Company's common stock price over the expected term (“volatility”), the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (“assumed forfeitures”), the risk-free interest rate that reflects the interest rate at grant date on zero-coupon United States governmental bonds that have a remaining life similar to the expected term (“risk-free interest rate”), and the dividend yield assumption which is based on the Company's dividend payment history and management's expectations of future dividend payments (“dividend yield”). Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimate of the fair value of share-based compensation and, consequently, the related amount recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The Company used the following weighted-average assumptions for the stock options granted during the periods presented below:

As of March 31, 2022, there was $1.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested performance stock units granted, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.07 years.
ESPP—The purpose of the Company’s employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) is to provide eligible employees an opportunity to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a discounted price through accumulated payroll deductions. Pursuant to the terms of the ESPP, which was amended and restated effective as of April 1, 2022, participants may purchase shares on the exercise date at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock as of either the exercise date or the first day of the relevant offering period, whichever is lesser. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company issued 466,468 shares to its
23
employees, and as of March 31, 2022, there are 877,092 shares reserved for future issuance under the plan. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense related to the ESPP of $0.1 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Contract Balances—After a policy is sold, the Company has no material additional or recurring obligations to the policyholder or the insurance carrier. As such, there are no contract liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the nine months ended March 31, 2021, there was no activity in the
24
contract asset balances other than the movement over time between long-term and short-term commissions receivable and accounts receivable as the policy is renewed, as shown on the balance sheet. A roll forward of commissions receivable (current and long term) is shown below for the nine months ended March 31, 2022:

The $157.4 million adjustment from change in estimate includes adjustments from the Company’s reassessment of each of its cohorts’ transaction prices. $145.0 million of the total adjustment was due to the increase in actual lapse rates for Senior MA policies during calendar year 2021 and overall lower persistency from early data received for the January 2022 renewals and was recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2021. Approximately 62%, 28%, and 8% of the adjustment from the change in estimate were from approved policies sold in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. In addition, there was a $6.1 million adjustment during the three months ended March 31, 2022, for renewal year lapses for calendar year 2022 for Senior MA policies.
Production Bonuses and Other—During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company received advance payments of marketing development funds, which are amortized over the course of the appropriate fiscal year based on policies sold. As of March 31, 2022, there was an unamortized balance remaining of $0.4 million of fiscal year 2022 and 2023 marketing development funds recorded in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
11.INCOME TAXES
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized income tax benefit of $2.6 million and income tax expense of $6.9 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 29.1% and 16.3%, respectively. The differences from our federal statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022, were primarily related to state income taxes. The differences from our federal statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021, were primarily related to state income taxes, partially offset by state tax credits such as the Kansas High Performance Incentive Program (“HPIP”) and discrete items for the period related to the exercise of non-qualified stock options.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized income tax benefit of $65.2 million and income tax expense of $31.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 25.5% and 20.3%, respectively. The differences from our federal statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, were primarily related to state income taxes. The differences from our federal statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2021, were primarily related to state income taxes, partially offset by state tax credits such as HPIP and discrete items for the period related to the exercise of non-qualified stock options.
Assessing the realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon several factors, including the likelihood and amount, if any, of future taxable income in relevant jurisdictions during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company forecasts taxable income by considering all available positive and negative evidence, including historical data and future plans and estimates. These assumptions require significant judgment about future taxable income. As a result, the amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable is subject to adjustment in future periods if estimates of future taxable income change. The Company continues to recognize its deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2022, as it believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company recognizes a significant deferred tax liability due to the difference in the timing of revenue recognition for financial statement and tax purposes. For financial statement
25
purposes, revenue is recognized when a policy is sold, while revenue recognition for tax purposes occurs when future renewal commission payments are received. This deferred tax liability is a source of income that can be used to support the realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets. As such, the Company does not believe a valuation allowance is necessary as of March 31, 2022, and will continue to evaluate in the future as circumstances may change.
12.NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as defined by ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic net income (loss) per share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common stock outstanding during the respective period. Diluted net income (loss) per share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common and common equivalent shareholders by the total of the weighted-average common stock outstanding and common equivalent shares outstanding during the respective period. For the purpose of calculating the Company’s Diluted EPS, common equivalent shares outstanding include common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding employee stock options, unvested RSU's, PSU’s assuming the performance conditions are satisfied as of the end of the reporting period, and common shares issuable upon the conclusion of each ESPP offering period. The number of common equivalent shares outstanding has been determined in accordance with the treasury stock method for employee stock options, RSU's, PSU’s, and common stock issuable pursuant to the ESPP to the extent they are dilutive. Under the treasury stock method, the exercise price paid by the option holder and future share-based compensation expense that the Company has not yet recognized are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.
The following table sets forth the computation of net income (loss) per share for the periods presented:

13.SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s reportable segments have been determined in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). The Company currently has three reportable segments: i) Senior, ii) Life, and iii) Auto & Home. Senior primarily sells senior Medicare-related health insurance products and also includes Population Health and InsideResponse. Life primarily sells term life and final expense products, and Auto & Home primarily sells individual automobile and homeowners’ insurance. In addition, the Company accounts for non-operating activity, share-based compensation expense, certain intersegment eliminations, and the costs of providing corporate and other administrative services in its administrative division, Corporate & Eliminations. These services are not directly identifiable with the Company’s reportable segments and are shown in the tables below to reconcile the reportable segments to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has not aggregated any operating segments together to represent a reportable segment.
The Company reports segment information based on how its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews its operating results, allocates resources, and makes decisions regarding business operations. The performance measures of the segments include total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA because management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the respective segments relative to other entities that operate in the same industries.
Costs of revenue, marketing and advertising, and technical development operating expenses that are directly attributable to a segment are reported within the applicable segment. Indirect costs of revenue, marketing and advertising, and technical development operating expenses are allocated to each segment based on varying metrics such as headcount. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as total revenue for the applicable segment less direct and allocated costs of revenue, marketing and advertising, technical development, and general and administrative operating costs and expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization expense; gain or loss on disposal of property, equipment, and software; share-based compensation expense; restructuring expenses; and non-recurring expenses such as severance payments and transaction costs. Our CODM does not separately evaluate assets by segment; therefore, assets by segment are not presented.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and result of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. The forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about our industry, business and future financial results. Please refer to a discussion of the Company’s forward-looking statements and associated risks in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in our 2021 Annual Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report and in Part II, Item 1A hereof.
Correction of Previously Issued Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company determined that first year provision for certain final expense policies offered by one of its insurance carrier partners should have been accrued based on a higher lapse rate. See Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to the correction, including descriptions of the misstatements and the impacts to our condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, we have corrected certain previously reported financial information for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, in this Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Company Overview
COVID-19. While the ongoing pandemic has caused disruptions to the economy both domestically and globally, including limitations on various businesses and activities that could have an indirect effect on our business, travel restrictions, and the extended shutdown of certain industries in various countries, due to the nature of our products and technology-enabled business model, these disruptions have not had a material adverse impact on our business on a consolidated basis. We will continue to evaluate the potential impacts and closely monitor developments as they arise.
Our Business. We are a leading technology-enabled, direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) distribution platform that provides consumers with a transparent and convenient venue to shop for complex senior health, life, and auto & home insurance policies from a curated panel of the nation’s leading insurance carriers. As an insurance distributor, we do not insure the consumer, but rather identify consumers looking to acquire insurance products and place these consumers with insurance carrier partners that provide these products and, in return, earn commissions from our insurance carrier partners for the policies we sell on their behalf. Because we are not the issuer of the insurance policy to the consumer, we bear no underwriting risks. Our proprietary technology allows us to take a broad funnel approach to marketing by analyzing and identifying high quality consumer leads sourced from a wide variety of online and offline marketing channels. Our primary sources of leads include search engine marketing, radio, television, and third-party marketing partners. We monitor our acquisition costs to dynamically allocate our marketing spend to the most attractive channel, benefiting from over thirty years of data accumulated through our proprietary, purpose-built technologies. Our advanced workflow processing system scores each acquired lead in real-time, matching it with an agent whom we determine is best suited to meet the consumer’s need. Our platform
30
then captures and utilizes our experience to further build upon the millions of data points that feed our marketing algorithms, which further enhances our ability to deploy subsequent marketing dollars efficiently and target more high-quality consumer leads. We have built our business model to maximize commissions collected over the life of an approved policy less the cost of acquiring the business, a metric we refer to as policyholder lifetime value and which is a key component to our overall profitability. Recently through acquisitions, we've begun expanding into lead generation sales, closed-door, long-term care prescription pharmacies, and overall health services through our Population Health platform.
We evaluate our business using the following three segments:
Senior, our fastest growing and largest segment, was launched in 2010 and provides unbiased comparison shopping for Medicare Advantage (“MA”) and Medicare Supplement (“MS”) insurance plans as well as prescription drug and dental, vision, and hearing (“DVH”) plans, and critical illness products. We represent approximately 20 leading, nationally-recognized insurance carrier partners, including UnitedHealthcare, Wellcare, and Humana. MA and MS plans accounted for 83% and 77% of our approved Senior policies for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 83% and 80% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with other ancillary type policies accounting for the remainder. Additionally, InsideResponse and Population Health (which includes SelectRx) are included in Senior for segment reporting purposes.
Life is one of the country’s largest and most established DTC insurance distributors for term life insurance, having sold over 2.0 million policies nationwide since our founding in 1985. Our platform provides unbiased comparison shopping for life insurance products such as term life, final expense, and other ancillary products like critical illness, accidental death, and juvenile insurance. We represent approximately 20 leading, nationally-recognized insurance carrier partners, with many of these relationships exceeding 15 years. Term life policies accounted for 34% and 43% of new premium within Life for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with final expense policies accounting for 66% and 57% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, term life policies accounted for 35% and 50% of new premium within Life, respectively, with final expense policies accounting for 65% and 50%, respectively.
Auto & Home was founded in 2011 as an unbiased comparison shopping platform for auto, home, and specialty insurance lines. Our platform provides unbiased comparison shopping for insurance products such as homeowners, auto, dwelling fire, and other ancillary insurance products underwritten by approximately 30 leading, nationally-recognized insurance carrier partners. Homeowners and 12-month auto products accounted for 74% and 80% of new premium within Auto & Home for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 76% and 79% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with six-month auto, dwelling fire, and other products accounting for a majority of the remainder.
The three and nine months ended March 31 referenced throughout the commentary below refers to the third quarter and fiscal year-to-date performance of our fiscal years ending on June 30, 2022 and 2021. Note that certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform with current year presentation.
Key Business and Operating Metrics by Segment
In addition to traditional financial metrics, we rely upon certain business and operating metrics to estimate and recognize commission revenue, evaluate our business performance and facilitate our operations. In Senior, our primary product, Medicare Advantage, pays us flat commission rates based on the number of policies we sell on behalf of our insurance carrier partners. Therefore, we have determined that units and unit metrics are the most appropriate measures to evaluate the performance of Senior. In Life and Auto & Home, we are typically paid a commission that is a percent of the premium that we generate for our insurance carrier partners. Therefore, we have determined that premium-based metrics are the most relevant measures to evaluate the performance of these segments. Below are the most relevant business and operating metrics for each segment:
31
Senior
Submitted Policies
Submitted policies are counted when an individual completes an application with our licensed agent and provides authorization to them to submit it to the insurance carrier partner. The applicant may have additional actions to take before the application will be reviewed by the insurance carrier.
The following table shows the number of submitted policies for the periods presented:
Three Months Ended March 31, | Nine Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Medicare Advantage | 242,721 | 160,233 | 678,827 | 454,772 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Medicare Supplement | 1,389 | 3,738 | 6,318 | 24,287 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Dental, Vision, and Hearing | 40,178 | 38,757 | 122,214 | 101,819 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Prescription Drug Plan | 1,079 | 1,568 | 6,193 | 10,243 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Total | 290,274 | 211,077 | 824,988 | 603,724 |
Total submitted policies increased by 38% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was driven primarily by a 51% increase in MA submitted policies and a 4% increase in DVH submitted policies, partially offset by a 63% decrease in MS submitted policies. The overall increase in submitted policies for Senior products was primarily due to increases in the number of agents we employ and overall close rates, which was partially driven by increased training for flex agents. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we increased the number of average productive agents by 72%.
Total submitted policies increased by 37% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was driven primarily by a 49% increase in MA submitted policies and a 20% increase in DVH submitted policies, partially offset by a 74% decrease in MS submitted policies. The overall increase in submitted policies for Senior products was primarily due to increases in the number of agents we employ, partially offset by lower agent productivity. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we increased the number of average productive agents by 100% and average productivity per agent declined by 29%.
Approved Policies
Approved policies represents the number of submitted policies that were approved by our insurance carrier partners for the identified product during the indicated period. Not all approved policies will go in force.
The following table shows the number of approved policies for the periods presented:
Three Months Ended March 31, | Nine Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Medicare Advantage | 196,377 | 132,950 | 546,031 | 384,137 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Medicare Supplement | 1,159 | 3,073 | 4,654 | 19,849 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Dental, Vision and Hearing | 34,486 | 34,517 | 101,251 | 84,370 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Prescription Drug Plan | 1,095 | 2,109 | 5,315 | 9,556 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Total | 236,953 | 177,778 | 666,450 | 508,121 |
32
In general, the relationship between submitted policies and approved policies has been steady over time. Therefore, factors impacting the number of submitted policies also impact the number of approved policies.
Total approved policies increased by 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was driven primarily by a 48% increase in MA approved policies, partially offset by a 62% decrease in MS approved policies. Total approved policies increased by 31% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was driven primarily by a 42% increase in MA approved policies and a 20% increase in DVH approved policies, partially offset by a 77% decrease in MS approved policies. Fluctuations in approved policies are normally in direct correlation to submitted policies; however, this year we experienced a 2% and 5% decrease in MA submitted-to-approved conversion rates for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, driven by higher consumer switching behavior. This resulted in MA approved policies growing at a slower rate than MA submitted policies.
Lifetime Value of Commissions per Approved Policy
The lifetime value of commissions (the “LTV”) per approved policy represents commissions estimated to be collected over the estimated life of an approved policy based on multiple factors, including but not limited to, contracted commission rates, carrier mix and expected policy persistency with applied constraints. The LTV per approved policy is equal to the sum of the commission revenue due upon the initial sale of a policy, and when applicable, an estimate of future renewal commissions. The estimate of the future renewal commissions is determined using contracted renewal commission rates constrained by a persistency-adjusted 10-year renewal period based on a combination of our historical experience and available insurance carrier historical experience to estimate renewal revenue only to the extent probable that a material reversal in revenue would not be expected to occur. These factors may result in varying values from period to period. The LTV per approved policy represents commissions only from policies sold during the period. That figure excludes renewals during the period from policies originally sold in a prior period with insurance carrier partners whose contracts preclude us from recognizing variable consideration for estimated renewal commissions and updated estimates of prior period variable consideration based on actual policy renewals in the current period.
The following table shows the LTV per approved policy for the periods presented:

The LTV per MA approved policy decreased 31% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The MA LTV was negatively impacted by lower MA persistency rates, increase in constraint, the switch to policy level persistency, carrier mix, and higher provision for first year and renewal year lapse rates, somewhat offset by higher commission rates. The LTV per MS approved policy decreased 29% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The MS LTV was negatively impacted by an increase in provision for intra-year lapses and a shift in carrier mix towards carriers that pay us more upfront but less over time.
The LTV per MA approved policy decreased 28% while the LTV per MS approved policy increased 1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The MA LTV was negatively impacted by lower MA persistency rates, increase in constraint, the switch to policy level persistency,

carrier mix, and higher provision for first year and renewal year lapse rates, somewhat offset by higher commission rates.
Per Unit Economics
Per unit economics represents total MA and MS commissions, other product commissions, other revenues, and costs associated with Senior, each shown per number of approved MA and MS approved policies over a given time period. Management assesses the business on a per-unit basis to help ensure that the revenue opportunity associated with a successful policy sale is attractive relative to the marketing acquisition cost. Because not all acquired leads result in a successful policy sale, all per-policy metrics are based on approved policies, which is the measure that triggers revenue recognition.
The MA and MS commission per MA/MS policy represents the LTV for policies sold in the period. Other commission per MA/MS policy represents the LTV for other products sold in the period, including DVH prescription drug plan, and other products, which management views as additional commission revenue on our agents’ core function of MA/MS policy sales. Other per MA/MS policy represents the production bonuses, marketing development funds, lead sales revenue from InsideResponse, revenue generated through the Population Health platform, and updated estimates of prior period variable consideration based on actual policy renewals in the current period. Total operating expenses per MA/MS policy represents all of the operating expenses within Senior. The Revenue to customer acquisition cost (“CAC”) multiple represents total revenue per MA/MS policy as a multiple of total marketing acquisition cost, which represents the direct costs of acquiring leads. These costs are included in marketing and advertising expense within the total operating expenses per MA/MS policy.
The following table shows per unit economics for the periods presented. Based on the seasonality of Senior and the fluctuations between quarters, we believe that the most relevant view of per unit economics is on a rolling 12-month basis. All per MA/MS policy metrics below are based on the sum of approved MA/MS policies, as both products have similar commission profiles. These metrics are the basis on which management assesses the business.

Total revenue per policy decreased 34% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2021. Approximately 50% of the decrease was due to the lower LTV of MA policies. Approximately 40% of the decrease was due to the $145.0 million adjustment from a change in estimate of primarily Senior MA cohort transaction prices, discussed further below in “Key Components of our Results of Operations”, and the remainder was due to a decrease in overall MS revenue somewhat offset by higher marketing development funds received per approved MA/MS policy and the addition of revenue from SelectRx. Total cost per
34
policy increased 24% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, due to higher fulfillment costs associated with scaling Population Health and SelectRx, higher sales expenses driven by a reduction in agent productivity during AEP, and an increase in our marketing and advertising expense driven by lower close rates during AEP.
Life
Life premium represents the total premium value for all policies that were approved by the relevant insurance carrier partner and for which the policy document was sent to the policyholder and payment information was received by the relevant insurance carrier partner during the indicated period. Because our commissions are earned based on a percentage of total premium, total premium volume for a given period is the key driver of revenue for Life.

Total term premiums decreased 22% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The number of policies sold declined 30% driven by lower agent headcount, which was somewhat offset by a 12% increase in the average premium per policy sold. Final expense premiums increased 15% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to an increase in the number of agents selling final expense policies.
Total term premiums decreased 19% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The number of policies sold declined 28% driven by lower agent headcount, which was somewhat offset by a 12% increase in the average premium per policy sold. Final expense premiums increased 49% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2021, due to an increase in the number of agents selling final expense policies.
Auto & Home
Auto & Home premium represents the total premium value of all new policies that were approved by our insurance carrier partners during the indicated period. Because our commissions are earned based on a percentage of total premium, total premium volume for a given period is the key driver of revenue for Auto & Home.
The following table shows premiums for the periods presented:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP and to provide investors with additional information regarding our GAAP financial results, we have presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, and certain add-backs for non-cash or non-recurring expenses, including restructuring and share-based compensation expenses. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). We monitor and have presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance, to establish budgets, and to develop operational goals for managing our business. In particular, we believe that excluding the impact of these expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance.
We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses that we exclude in the calculations of this non-GAAP financial measure. Accordingly, we believe that this financial measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects.
Adjusted EBITDA is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of this non-GAAP financial measure rather than net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These limitations include the fact that Adjusted EBITDA excludes interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, income tax expense (benefit), and other non-recurring expenses that are one-time in nature. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA and net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, for the periods presented:

Revenue
Our primary source of revenue are the commissions earned for the sale of first year and renewal policies from our insurance carrier partners, which are presented in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income as commission revenue. Additionally, we earn certain volume-based bonuses from some carriers on first-year policies sold, which we refer to as production bonuses and marketing development funds, based on attaining various predetermined target sales levels or other agreed upon objectives, as presented in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as production bonus and other revenue (“other revenue”). Furthermore, the production bonus and other revenue also includes the lead generation revenue from InsideResponse and the revenue generated through the Population Health platform.
Our commission contracts with our insurance carrier partners contain a single performance obligation satisfied at the point in time to which we allocate the total transaction price. The transaction price is identified as the first year commission due upon the initial sale of a policy as well as an estimate of future renewal commissions and other revenue when applicable. After a policy is sold, we have no material additional or recurring obligations to the policyholder or the insurance carrier partner. Therefore, we do not incur any additional expense related to our receipt of future renewal commissions or other revenue. All of the costs associated with the sale of an individual policy are incurred prior to or at the time of the initial sale of an individual policy. Commission and other revenue are recognized at different milestones for each segment based on the contractual enforceable rights, our historical experience, and established customer business practices. InsideResponse's lead sales revenue is recognized when the generated lead is accepted by our customers, which is the point of sale, and we have no performance obligation after the delivery. Revenues generated from SelectRx are recognized upon shipment. At the time of shipment, we have performed substantially all of our performance obligations and do not experience a significant level of returns or re-shipments. There are no future revenue streams associated as patients have the option to cancel their service at any time with no further payments due.
The following table presents our commission revenue, production bonus and other revenue, and total revenue for the periods presented and the percentage changes from the prior year:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Commission revenue decreased $12.7 million, or 5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and included decreases in Senior and Life of $6.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in Auto & Home of $0.6 million. For Senior, despite a 33% increase in approved policies, the reduction in revenue was driven by a 31% reduction in LTV’s of approved MA policies, as discussed above. Life’s revenue decline was primarily driven by a $4.0 million decrease in term life revenue. The $22.4 million increase in production bonus and other revenue was primarily driven by $18.4 million of new pharmacy prescription revenue from SelectRx and a $6.1 million increase in marketing development funds received for Senior, partially offset by a reduction of $4.5 million in external lead generation revenue from InsideResponse, as more of their leads were consumed within the Senior division than in the prior year.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Commission revenue decreased $165.1 million, or 25%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, which included decreases in Senior, Life, and Auto & Home of $155.7 million, $2.7 million, and $1.8 million, respectively. For Senior, the revenue decline was driven by the 28% reduction in LTV’s of approved MA policies and the $145.0 million downward adjustment from a change in estimate of Senior MA cohort transaction prices made during the three months ended December 31, 2021. Life’s revenue decline was driven by an $11.4 million decrease in term life revenue, partially offset by an $8.7 million
39
increase in final expense revenue, which was a result of the investment we have made in agents to grow sales of these policies. The revenue decline for Auto & Home was driven by our strategy to reduce the growth in that division. The $47.1 million increase in production bonus and other revenue was primarily driven by $31.6 million of new pharmacy prescription revenue from SelectRx and a $21.7 million increase in marketing development funds received for Senior, partially offset by a reduction of $13.1 million in external lead generation revenue from InsideResponse, as more of their leads were consumed within Senior than in the prior year.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue represents the direct costs associated with fulfilling our obligations to our insurance carrier partners for the sale of insurance policies. Such costs primarily consist of compensation and related benefit costs for agents, fulfillment specialists and others directly engaged in servicing policy holders. It also includes licensing costs for our agents and allocations for facilities, telecommunications and software maintenance costs, which are all based on headcount. Facilities costs include rent and utilities expenses and other costs to maintain our office locations. Telecommunications and software maintenance costs includes costs related to the internal phone systems and various software applications that our agents use to make sales. These costs directly correlate to the number of agents we have as we are primarily charged based on per person usage for the phone systems and software applications. For SelectRx, cost of revenue represents the direct costs associated with inventory used to fulfill prescriptions for senior medication management.
The following table presents our cost of revenue for the periods presented and the percentage changes from the prior year:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Cost of revenue increased $48.0 million, or 67%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $29.2 million increase in compensation costs driven by the growth in the number of employees within Senior. The increase in headcount also drove increases in the allocations of $2.8 million for facilities, telecommunications, and software maintenance costs and $0.7 million for licensing costs. Additionally, there was $13.6 million of new medication costs in cost of revenue for SelectRx.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Cost of revenue increased $153.1 million, or 74%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $104.3 million increase in compensation costs driven by the growth in the number of employees within Senior. The increase in headcount also drove increases in the allocations of $13.1 million for facilities, telecommunications, and software maintenance costs and $7.8 million for licensing costs. Additionally, there was $23.8 million of new medication costs in cost of revenue for SelectRx.
Marketing and Advertising
Marketing and advertising expenses consist primarily of the direct costs associated with marketing and advertising of our services, such as television and radio commercials and online advertising. These direct costs generally represent the vast majority of our marketing and advertising expenses. Other costs consist of compensation and other expenses related to marketing, business development, partner management, public relations, carrier relations personnel who support our offerings, and allocations for facilities, telecommunications, and software maintenance costs. Our marketing and advertising costs increase during AEP and OEP to generate more leads during these high-volume periods.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Marketing and advertising expenses increased $8.4 million, or 7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $6.9 million increase in lead costs associated with generating more leads for our larger agent base to consume and a $0.5 million increase in compensation costs, as we increased the number of employees supporting our marketing organization to produce more leads. Additionally, there was a $0.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to additional fixed assets and software in service.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Marketing and advertising expenses increased $110.3 million, or 37%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $101.0 million increase in lead costs associated with generating more leads for our larger agent base to consume and lower overall close rates which impacted our marketing efficiency and a $6.8 million increase in compensation costs, as we increased the number of employees supporting our marketing organization to produce more leads. Additionally, there was a $1.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to additional fixed assets and software in service.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include compensation and benefits costs for staff working in our executive, finance, accounting, recruiting, human resources, administrative, business intelligence and data science departments. These expenses also include fees paid for outside professional services, including audit, tax and legal fees and allocations for facilities, telecommunications and software maintenance costs.

General and administrative | $ | 21,031 | $ | 19,251 | 9% | $ | 64,570 | $ | 44,496 | 45% |
Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–General and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million, or 9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $3.5 million increase in compensation costs due to additional headcount to support the growth in the business, offset by a $4.5 million decrease in corporate development costs primarily related to one-time costs which were incurred in the prior year for the First Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–General and administrative expenses increased $20.1 million, or 45%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to increases of $13.9 million in compensation costs due to additional headcount to support the growth in the business, $3.5 million in depreciation and amortization expenses due to additional fixed assets and software in service, and $3.2 million in professional services fees due to increases in recruiting, accounting and legal, and insurance costs. The increase was partially offset by a $2.8 million decrease in corporate development costs primarily related to one-time costs which were incurred in the prior year for the First Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

Technical Development
Technical development expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits costs for internal and external personnel associated with developing, maintaining and enhancing our applications, infrastructure and other IT-related functions as well as allocations for facilities, telecommunications and software maintenance costs.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Technical development expenses increased $1.6 million, or 32%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in compensation costs related to our technology personnel as we increased the number of people in our desktop support and development efforts to support the increase in total headcount. The increase in headcount also drove increases in the allocations of $0.5 million for facilities, telecommunications, and software maintenance costs.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Technical development expenses increased $5.2 million, or 39%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in compensation costs related to our technology personnel noted above.

Segment Information
We currently have three reportable segments: 1) Senior 2) Life, and 3) Auto & Home. InsideResponse and Population Health are also included in Senior. The performance measures of the segments include total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA because management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the respective segments relative to other entities that operate in the same industries.
In addition, we account for non-operating activity, share-based compensation expense, certain intersegment eliminations and the costs of providing corporate and other administrative services in our administrative division, Corporate & Eliminations. These services are not directly identifiable with our reportable segments and are shown in the tables below to reconcile the reportable segments to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Costs of revenue, marketing and advertising and technical development operating costs and expenses that are directly attributable to a segment are reported within the applicable segment. Indirect costs of revenue, marketing and advertising and technical development operating costs and expenses are allocated to each segment based on varying metrics such as headcount. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as total revenue for the applicable segment less direct and allocated costs of revenue, marketing and advertising, technical development and general and administrative operating costs and expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization expense; loss on disposal of property, equipment, and software; share-based compensation expense; restructuring expenses; and non-recurring expenses such as severance payments and transaction costs. Our CODM does not separately evaluate assets by segment; therefore, assets by segment are not presented.

Revenue by Segment
Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Revenue from Senior was $233.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $17.6 million, or 8%, increase compared to revenue of $215.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was due to $18.4 million of new pharmacy prescription revenue from SelectRx and a $6.1 million increase in marketing development funds received, partially offset by a reduction of
46
$4.5 million of external lead generation revenue from InsideResponse and a $4.4 million, or 2%, decrease in MA commission revenue.
Revenue from Life was $39.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $5.4 million, or 12%, decrease compared to revenue of $44.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Revenue from Senior was $497.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $106.9 million, or 18%, decrease compared to revenue of $604.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was due to a $137.8 million, or 28%, decrease in MA commission revenue primarily from the $145.0 million adjustment from the change in estimate of cohort transaction prices discussed above, a $18.9 million decrease in MS commission revenue, and a reduction of $13.1 million in external lead generation revenue from InsideResponse, partially offset by $31.6 million of new pharmacy prescription revenue from SelectRx and a $21.7 million increase in marketing development funds received.
Revenue from Life was $119.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $2.3 million, or 2%, decrease compared to revenue of $121.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to an $11.4 million decrease in term life revenue, partially offset by an $8.7 million increase in final expense revenue.
Revenue from Auto & Home was $20.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $3.0 million, or 13%, decrease compared to revenue of $23.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to our strategy to reduce the growth in Auto & Home.
Adjusted EBITDA by Segment
Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Adjusted EBITDA from Senior was $32.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $43.3 million decrease compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $75.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was due to a $60.9 million increase in operating costs and expenses primarily from a $18.2 million increase in personnel costs associated with additional headcount, $14.3 million higher fulfillment costs associated with scaling Population Health and SelectRx, $13.6 million in pharmaceutical costs for SelectRx, and $11.2 million increase in variable marketing expenses as discussed above. The increase in operating costs and expenses was partially offset by a $17.6 million increase in revenue as discussed above.
Adjusted EBITDA from Life was $(1.9) million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $3.5 million decrease compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the $5.4 million decrease in revenue discussed above, partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in operating costs and expenses primarily attributable to lower headcount and marketing costs.
Adjusted EBITDA from Auto & Home was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $0.1 million, or 5%, increase compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the $0.2 million increase in revenue discussed above and a reduction in operating costs and expenses due to lower headcount.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021–Adjusted EBITDA from Senior was $(149.4) million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $368.4 million decrease compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $218.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a $261.5 million increase in operating costs and expenses primarily from a $102.7 million increase in variable marketing
47
expenses as discussed above, an $81.1 million increase in personnel costs associated with additional headcount, $40.5 million higher fulfillment costs associated with scaling Population Health and SelectRx, and $23.8 million in pharmaceutical costs for SelectRx. In addition, there was a $106.9 million decrease in revenue primarily as a result of the $145.0 million adjustment from a change in estimate of cohort transaction prices discussed above.
Adjusted EBITDA from Life was $2.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $14.1 million, or 86%, decrease compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $16.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a $11.8 million increase in operating costs and expenses primarily attributable to an increase in variable marketing expenses related to final expense.
Adjusted EBITDA from Auto & Home was $4.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a $2.9 million, or 42%, decrease compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $6.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a $3.0 million decrease in revenue.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity needs primarily include working capital and debt service requirements. We believe that the cash available under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our projected operating and debt service requirements for at least the next 12 months. To the extent that our current liquidity is insufficient to fund future activities, we may need to raise additional funds. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the ownership of our existing stockholders will be diluted. The incurrence of additional debt financing would result in debt service obligations, and any future instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that could restrict our operations.
To date, systemic economic disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic have not had a substantial effect on our financial standing; however, given the unpredictable nature of the virus and its effects on the global economy, we will continue to evaluate our financial position and liquidity needs in light of the ongoing pandemic as developments arise.
Risks and Uncertainties Regarding Liquidity and Compliance with our Senior Secured Credit Facility Covenant
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a certain asset coverage ratio, as discussed further in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2022, we are in compliance with all of our debt covenants; however, our financial projections indicate that, based on our current business plan, we will not maintain the required asset coverage ratio within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Failure to maintain the required ratio would constitute a violation of our obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and would permit our lenders to declare us in default. In the event of a default, our lenders could accelerate all amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay such indebtedness. We have commenced discussions of a covenant waiver or modification with our lenders; however, we cannot provide any assurances that we will be successful in obtaining such a waiver or modification on acceptable terms, or at all. As a result, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Cash Flows
As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $199.4 million and $286.5 million, respectively. Additionally, the following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the periods presented below:

Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities primarily consists of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items including depreciation; amortization of intangible assets and internally developed software; deferred income taxes; share-based compensation expense and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
Collection of commissions receivable depends upon the timing of our receipt of commission payments and associated commission statements from our insurance carrier partners. If we were to experience a delay in receiving a commission payment from an insurance carrier partner within a quarter, our operating cash flows for that quarter could be adversely impacted.
A significant portion of our marketing and advertising expenses is driven by the number of leads required to generate the insurance applications we submit to our insurance carrier partners. Our marketing and advertising costs are expensed and generally paid as incurred and since commission revenue is recognized upon approval of a policy but commission payments are paid to us over time there are working capital requirements to fund the upfront cost of acquiring new policies. During AEP, we experience an increase in the number of submitted Senior insurance applications and marketing and advertising expenses compared to periods outside of AEP. The timing of AEP affects the positive or negative impacts of our cash flows during each quarter.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022—Cash used in operating activities was $284.4 million, consisting of net loss of $190.6 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $33.4 million, and cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $60.4 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $65.6 million in deferred income taxes, offset by $18.0 million of depreciation and amortization related to additional fixed assets purchases to accommodate our growth in headcount, internally developed software in service, and SelectRx infrastructure, $6.3 million of share-based compensation expense, $4.2 million of amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount as a result of amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, and $3.1 million of non-cash lease expense. The cash decrease resulting from changes in net operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of increases of $62.8 million in accounts receivable and $8.3 million in other assets related to an increase in inventory for SelectRx and an increase in prepaid expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $7.6 million in commissions receivable and increases of $8.1 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses, all driven by the increased marketing and personnel costs for AEP and OEP.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2021—Cash used in operating activities was $60.9 million, consisting of net income of $124.8 million and adjustments for non-cash items of $56.3 million, offset by cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $242.1 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $31.7 million in deferred income taxes as the Company defers revenue related to certain commissions receivable into following years until it is collected, $11.3 million of depreciation and amortization related to additional fixed assets purchases to accommodate our growth in headcount and internally developed software in service, $3.7 million of share-based compensation expense, and $2.9 million of non-cash lease expense. The cash decrease resulting from changes in net operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of increases of $251.2 million in commissions receivable and $49.2 million in accounts receivable related to the increase in approved policies partially offset by increases of $26.2 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses and $30.4 million in other liabilities, which consists primarily of commission advances and accrued compensation and benefits, all driven by the increased marketing and personnel costs required to produce our increased revenue.
Investing Activities
49

Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022—Net cash used in investing activities of $40.0 million was due to $24.5 million of purchases of property and equipment primarily to support AEP and OEP and the growth of SelectRx infrastructure, $7.6 million in purchases of software and capitalized internal-use software, $6.9 million of net cash paid to acquire Simple Meds, and a $1.0 million non-controlling interest equity investment.

Additionally, we used $24.0 million of cash related to the acquisition of a lead distribution company.
Financing Activities
Our financing activities primarily consist of proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity and proceeds and payments related to stock-based compensation.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022—Net cash provided by financing activities of $237.3 million was primarily due to $242.0 million in net proceeds from the DDTL Facility and $3.2 million in proceeds from common stock options exercised and the employee stock purchase plan, partially offset by a holdback settlement of $5.5 million for acquisition of a lead distribution company, principal payments of $1.2 million and $0.6 million on the Term Loans and DDTL Facility, respectively, and $0.3 million in debt issuance costs related to the Second Amendment and Third Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2021—Net cash provided by financing activities of $97.3 million was primarily due to $228.8 million in net proceeds from the Term Loans as a result of the First Amendment, partially offset by payments of $84.1 million related to the partial extinguishment of the Term Loans, $32.3 million of earnout for the InsideResponse acquisition, and $10.0 million for withholding taxes related to net share settlements of employee stock option awards.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
We entered into the Senior Secured Credit Facility to provide access to cash, in a variety of methods, when necessary to fund the operations of the business. There were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, there was $470.7 million outstanding under the Term Loans and $244.4 million outstanding under the DDTL Facility. Refer to Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.
Our risk management strategy includes entering into interest rate swap agreements to protect against unfavorable interest rate changes relating to forecasted debt transactions. The Company's Amended Interest Rate Swap is designated as a cash flow hedge of the interest payments on $325.0 million in principal of the Term Loans. Refer to Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
We are primarily exposed to the market risk associated with unfavorable movements in interest rates. The risk inherent in our market risk-sensitive instruments and positions is the potential loss or increased expense arising from adverse changes in those factors. There have been no material changes to our market risk policies or our market risk-sensitive instruments and positions as described in our annual report on our 2021 Annual Report.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Our Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), carried out by our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer (principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (principal financial and accounting officer). Based upon our management's evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, because of a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Specifically, an error was identified during the three months ended December 31, 2021, relative to the Life first year commission revenue provision for certain final expense policies. As a result of the error, management concluded that our controls addressing the completeness and accuracy of carrier and policy information utilized to determine the first year provision were not designed effectively. This material weakness resulted in the correction of an error in the Company’s interim financial statements for the quarters ended December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2021, for which we have concluded such errors are not material to those previously reported financial statements.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only a reasonable level of assurance of achieving their desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Management’s Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness
As a result of this material weakness identified, we have made significant progress on implementing remediation measures including, but not limited to, obtaining complete and accurate carrier information feeds to support first year provision for final expense policies, reviewing policies as applicable to ensure additional risk mitigation, and enhancing procedures to assess the ongoing completeness and accuracy of carrier information utilized in supporting provisioning control activities. The initiatives we are implementing to remediate the material weakness are subject to continued management review supported by confirmation and testing, as well as audit committee oversight. However, we cannot be certain that the measures we have taken or may take in the future will ensure that we will establish and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future.
51
Notwithstanding the material weakness, our management has concluded that the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. The material weakness will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that the Company’s controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the material weakness noted above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
A discussion of legal proceedings to which the Company is a party is included in Part I, Item 1 hereof under “Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies – Legal Contingencies and Obligations,” which is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Except as discussed below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report. Realization of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business financial condition or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we deem to be immaterial could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain a waiver or modification of certain of our debt covenants from our lenders.
Pursuant to the terms of our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a certain asset coverage ratio. Our financial projections indicate that, based on our current business plan, our asset coverage ratio will fall below the required level within one year of the date of issuance of our financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022. If we are unable to maintain the required asset coverage ratio, our lenders could declare us in default of our obligations and accelerate all amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. We do not expect we would have sufficient liquidity to repay such indebtedness. As a result, we would not be able to continue as a going concern if we cannot obtain a waiver or modification of the covenant concerning our asset coverage ratio from our lenders. While we have commenced discussions with our lenders regarding such a waiver or modification, we cannot assure you we will be successful in obtaining such a waiver or modification on acceptable terms, or at all.
