2016 Guidance
Actua continues to expect (1) annual GAAP revenue in the range of between $155.0 million and $160.0 million, representing growth in the range of between 16% and 20% compared to 2015, (2) positive annual non-GAAP cash flows from operations in the range of between $3.0 million and $8.0 million, and (3) non-GAAP net loss per share in the range of between $(0.35) and $(0.40) per diluted share.  Actua now expects diluted shares outstanding of 37.0 million shares for full year 2016, after taking into account the impact of its recent share repurchases.

"Cash flows from operations was a use of $(13.2) million for the first quarter of 2016, compared to a use of $(4.4) million for the first quarter of 2015. This was in line with our expectations," said R. Kirk Morgan, CFO of Actua. "As the cycle of our cash collections activity has shifted to the fourth quarter, we expect significant positive cash flows for the last nine months of the year that will result in annual non-GAAP cash flows from operations within our guidance range."

"From a pipeline perspective, we continued to see opportunities built steadily. We entered Q1 with 14 deals in the pipeline, two of which closed and I just mentioned and we added two new, large multiyear deals for a total of 14. Our continued activity on the platform drove the number of users on the platform to increase from roughly 50,000 at the beginning of the year to almost 56,000 at quarter end.

Adding to that, we saw opportunities of qualified risk going through the platform climb to $2.5 million at the end of Q1 from $2 million at year end. This resulted in increased premiums of $1.42 billion at quarter end up from $1.3 billion at year end; all healthy growth. From a platform perspective we started the year with 4,900 carrier connections and added 5,160 Connections."

"Turning to Slide 9, VelocityEHS grew revenues 23% in Q1 2016 over the prior year period. Service revenue was lower than a year ago, as we push more customers towards preconfigured implementations which ultimately lowers cost and timeframe and expands Velocity’s SaaS recurring revenue.

The company grew recurring SaaS bookings 27% in the quarter compared to Q1 2015 and added almost 700 customers bringing the total customer count to approximately 12,000. Velocity continues to add features to its core products that enable it to sell more functionality to both new and existing customers. And as a result their pipeline growth continues to accelerate quarter after quarter with strong representation from both mid-market and large global 1000 organizations. Additionally, we are seeing early but strong interest in Velocity’s new ergonomics offerings."

"GovDelivery closed 40 deals in Q1 and most importantly comparison to a relatively slow start last year GovDelivery saw ACV or Annual Contract Value growth of 25% compared to Q1, 2015, the best first quarters bookings the company has ever recorded.

Even with these strong bookings we finished the quarter with our pipeline for recurring revenue up more than 25% from last year at this time and we expect to see overall growth accelerate through the year. Of the 40 new deals in the quarter, 25% came from new business within existing clients, continue to demonstrate the benefits of our expanded platform of solutions which now offers us the ability to sell multiple add-ons including extended text messaging and advanced marketing suite, learning solutions and sophisticated data management capabilities. New innovation and industry leadership continues at GovDelivery. The total number of subscribers to the GovDelivery platform, the number of citizens GovDelivery clients reach grew from a $120 million to $127 million during the quarter. "

Turn Your Leads into Bottom-Line Results

In today’s insurance industry, it’s all too easy for consumers to jump between carriers or to simply drop those that do not meet their immediate or long-term needs. This means that insurers cannot afford to come up short on their product offerings or in how they engage the consumer. Being positioned to close every prospect that visits their site or almost every lead procured is critical to an insurer’s success and growth.

The Value of Lead Exchanges

Lead exchanges can be a valuable tool for carriers in today’s competitive insurance market. While they are a relatively new concept, exchanges have a couple of distinct advantages. For buyers with limited marketing budgets, they provide options to generate highly-targeted leads, and for organizations with greater marketing pull, exchanges are a means to help online marketing departments recoup some of the campaign dollars spent by selling back leads that cannot be converted into new sales.

Banking on this sell-back feature, many insurers have even created lead exchange revenue channels for their operations. But what if insurers could turn almost every lead they generated into a new customer instead of realizing only a partial reimbursement of the lead cost? If positioned correctly, carriers can increase net premiums and revenue while driving greater marketing ROI, no matter what the customer’s insurance needs.
