Clover Health Provides Business Update and Issues Partial Guidance for Full-Year 2023

FRANKLIN, Tenn., Jan. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Clover Health Investments, Corp. (NASDAQ: CLOV) (“Clover,” “Clover Health” or the “Company”), a physician enablement company committed to bringing access to great healthcare to everyone on Medicare, today provides a business update and announces partial guidance for full-year 2023.

“2023 will be a pivotal year for Clover Health and I believe we will prove out the strength of our approach to managing care for Medicare beneficiaries. It’s an exciting time for me to transition into the role of Chief Executive Officer, working with our team to deliver results for our members, our physician network partners, and our shareholders”, said Andrew Toy, Chief Executive Officer of Clover Health.

“We expect to build upon our positive momentum from 2022 to deliver continued improvement in our financial performance across both our Insurance and Non-Insurance lines. During the most recent Medicare Advantage Annual Enrollment Period, we intentionally priced our Insurance plans with profitability in mind as opposed to growth. Due to this strategic shift, we expect to start 2023 with Insurance membership approximately in line with our Insurance membership as of January 1, 2022, and we expect favorability in 2023 MCR and growth in 2023 Insurance top-line revenue. On our Non-Insurance business, we are continuing with our previously disclosed strategic shift to reduce the number of participant providers we accept into the program in connection with an increased prioritization of profitability”, said Mr. Toy.

“The resulting improvement in the returning member mix for both lines of business is expected to further improve our financial profile. We intend to issue additional guidance for full-year 2023 at a later date. However, the partial guidance for full-year 2023 we are issuing today highlights the anticipated favorable impact of our ongoing strategy to prioritize profitability”, said Mr. Toy.

“We continue to prioritize operating efficiencies to reduce adjusted SG&A and optimize liquidity. We also continue to feel comfortable with the Company’s current liquidity position, which helps to insulate us against a challenging market environment”, said Scott Leffler, Chief Financial Officer of Clover Health.

For full-year 2023, Clover Health issues its partial guidance as follows:

Insurance Segment:

• Insurance revenues are expected to be in the range of $1.15 billion to $1.20 billion in 2023, as compared to our most recently issued 2022 guidance range⁽¹⁾ of $1.0 billion to $1.1 billion.
• Insurance MCR is expected to be in the range of 89% – 91% in 2023.

Non-Insurance Segment:

• Non-Insurance revenues are expected to be in the range of $0.75 billion to $0.80 billion in 2023.
• Non-Insurance MCR is expected to be in the range of 98% – 100% in 2023.

⁽¹⁾ For comparison purposes, we have included the 2022 projected financial metrics based on guidance provided in the Company’s November 7, 2022 press release, which has not been updated since issued.
