NerdWallet, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRDS), which provides trustworthy financial guidance to consumers and small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

“Though headwinds outweighed tailwinds in our business in 2023, we made critical structural improvements to increase our efficiency and relentlessly improve our operations, setting us up for margin leverage as growth returns,” said Tim Chen, Co-Founder and CEO of NerdWallet. “With 2024 well underway, we will continue to prioritize relentless self-improvement, our long-term orientation, and our commitment to consumers to drive results as we make progress towards our vision of building a trusted financial ecosystem.”

“Although we did not meet our revenue or adjusted EBITDA outlook for Q4, we finished 2023 with $599 million in revenue—an 11% increase over the previous year,” said Lauren StClair, CFO of NerdWallet. “While we are at a tough moment in this credit cycle, particularly in interest rate-sensitive areas, we are cautiously optimistic that the beginning of recovery is in sight, and are excited to continue helping consumers navigate their financial questions in the year ahead.”

FOURTH QUARTER 2023 HIGHLIGHTS

Credit cards revenue of $43.2 million decreased 18% year-over-year, primarily due to reduced marketing spending by our financial services partners amidst a combination of increasingly cautious underwriting and heightened balance sheet conservatism following the regional banking crisis.
Loans revenue of $23.6 million was up 5% year-over-year, primarily due to growth in personal loans, partially offset by a decrease in mortgages reflecting higher interest rates and continuing macroeconomic headwinds.
SMB products revenue, previously included in Other verticals, of $27.6 million was up 6% year-over-year, which—despite macroeconomic headwinds for the loans industry broadly—was more than offset by our ability to drive revenue growth in the other scaling areas of SMB products such as business credit cards.
Emerging verticals revenue, previously named Other verticals, of $39.3 million was down 3% year-over-year, as a decrease in insurance products was partially offset by growth in banking products.
We had 24 million average Monthly Unique Users (MUUs), which was up 24% year-over-year. We saw strong engagement in areas such as travel products, personal loans and insurance.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We use non-GAAP operating income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with our Board of Directors concerning our financial performance.

Non-GAAP operating income (loss): We define non-GAAP operating income (loss) as income (loss) from operations adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, and further exclude (1) impairment of right-of-use asset, (2) losses (gains) on disposals of assets, (3) change in fair value of contingent consideration related to earnouts, (4) deferred compensation related to earnouts, and (5) acquisition-related costs. We also reduce income from operations, or increase loss from operations, for capitalized internally developed software costs.

Adjusted EBITDA: We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, interest income (expense), net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, and further exclude (1) impairment of right-of-use asset, (2) losses (gains) on disposals of assets, (3) change in fair value of contingent consideration related to earnouts, (4) deferred compensation related to earnouts, (5) stock-based compensation, and (6) acquisition-related costs.

The above items are excluded from our non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA measures because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amounts are not driven by core operating results and renders comparisons with prior periods less meaningful. We deduct capitalized internally developed software costs in our non-GAAP operating income (loss) measure to reflect the cash impact of personnel costs incurred within the time period.

We believe that non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and in comparing operating results across periods. Moreover, non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA are key measurements used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to analyzing operating expenses, evaluating performance, and performing strategic planning and annual budgeting. However, the use of these non-GAAP measures have certain limitations because they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as financial measures, should be considered as supplemental in nature, and are not meant as substitutes for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These limitations include the following:

Non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain recurring, non-cash charges, such as amortization of software, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, impairment of right-of-use asset, and (losses) gains on disposals of assets. Although these are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect all cash requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
Non-GAAP operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA exclude acquisition-related costs, including acquisition-related retention compensation under compensatory retention agreements with certain key employees, acquisition-related transaction expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustments related to earnouts, and deferred compensation related to earnouts;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation, including for acquisition-related inducement awards, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; and
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest income (expense) and other gains (losses), net, which include unrealized and realized gains and losses on foreign currency exchange, as well as certain nonrecurring gains (losses).

Free cash flow: We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capitalized software development costs and purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow is a key measurement used by our management internally to evaluate our business performance and overall liquidity. We believe that free cash flow provides useful information for investors and others for determining the amount of cash available for investment in our business, strategic opportunities, repurchasing stock, strengthening our financial position and other purposes, as well as evaluating our historical and prospective liquidity. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance and liquidity is that free cash flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period.

In addition, non-GAAP operating income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as we define them may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Because of these limitations, you should consider non-GAAP operating income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow alongside other financial performance measures, including income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, and our other GAAP results.

We compensate for these limitations by reconciling non-GAAP operating income (loss) to income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable respective GAAP financial measures, as follows:

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

We are providing guidance for the first quarter of 2024:

Revenue is expected in the range of $155-$160 million, (7%) year-over-year at the midpoint
GAAP operating income is expected in the range of $0-$3 million
Non-GAAP operating income is expected in the range of $5-$8 million
Adjusted EBITDA is expected in the range of $21-$24 million

We expect a 2024 annual GAAP operating income margin in the range of 3-4.5% and non-GAAP operating income margin in the range of 6.5-8%. We also expect a 2024 annual adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 18-19.5%.

NerdWallet has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted GAAP net income (loss) to forecasted adjusted EBITDA within this communication because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to, income taxes which are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of the Company’s capital stock. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net income (loss), are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are outside of NerdWallet’s control.

A reconciliation of forecasted operating income margin to forecasted non-GAAP operating income margin, and forecasted operating income to forecasted non-GAAP operating income is as follows:

	Forecasted Full Year 2024	Forecasted First Quarter 2024
(in millions)	Operating Income Margin¹	Operating Income
GAAP	3-4.5%	$0-$3
Estimated adjustments for:
Depreciation and amortization	7-7.5%	11.5
Acquisition-related retention	1%	1
Capitalized internally developed software costs	(4.5)-(5%)	(7.5)
Non-GAAP	6.5-8%	$5-$8

______________
(1)		Operating income margin represents forecasted operating income as a percentage of forecasted revenue. Non-GAAP operating income margin represents forecasted non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of forecasted revenue.
