Strong Q4. The company delivered impressive Q4 results driven by strong market dynamics during the Medicare Advantage Annual Enrollment Period (AEP). Quarterly revenue of $389.1 million was 16% stronger than our estimate of $336.0 million, and adj. EBITDA of $117.8 million exceeded our estimate of $80.4 million by 47%.
Improved efficiency. Average agent handle time was down roughly 9% from the prior year period and direct operating cost per policy submission was down 27% to $501. We believe these improvements are attributable to the company’s agent training and technology tool enhancements. Moreover, we believe the company’s focus on increasing productivity per agent could drive additional margin improvement over time.
