Review of Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2015

Revenue increased 7% to $78.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 from $73.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in revenue was driven primarily by the growth in professional management revenue, which increased 9% to $70.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 from $64.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Costs and expenses increased 19% to $67.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 from $57.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. This was due primarily to increases in wages driven by increased headcount and higher compensation, cash incentive compensation expenses, fees paid to plan providers for connectivity to plan and plan participant data, non-cash stock-based compensation expense and professional services expenses related to acquisition activity.

As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue (exclusive of amortization of internal use software) was 43% for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to 40% for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Income from operations was $10.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $16.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations was 14% for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to 22% for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Net income was $6.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to net income of $10.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2014.

On a non-GAAP basis, Adjusted Net Incomeii was $12.6 million and Adjusted Earnings Per Shareii were $0.24 for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to Adjusted Net Income of $12.9 million and Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.24 for the fourth quarter of 2014.

As the Company advised in late 2014, there are a few factors which affected Adjusted EBITDA between 2014 and 2015.

• Variable cash incentive compensation expense increased due to higher cash incentive plan percentage achievement in 2015, resulting in approximately $7 million more expense in 2015.
• Printed enrollment material expenses increased by approximately $2 million in 2015 because the refreshed campaign designs and content did not qualify for capitalization as direct-response advertising. While cash spending for printed enrollment material was consistent with historical trends, more of these costs were expensed and less was capitalized than previously had been the case.
• In 2015, the Company had additional expenses related to the investment in people, technology and infrastructure to enable our growth.

“We anticipate acceleration to our growth with the integration of The Mutual Fund Store’s core strengths,” said Ray Sims, chief financial officer of Financial Engines. “Post-closing, we remain debt free and expect to generate significant cash flow that will enable us to continue to invest in the business and drive our growth.”

Assets Under Contract and Assets Under Management

AUC was $987 billion as of December 31, 2015, an increase of 10% from $895 billion as of December 31, 2014, due primarily to new employers making our services available and contributions, offset by market performance. AUC for plans in which the Income+ service has been made available was $325 billion as of December 31, 2015, which increased 43% from $227 billion as of December 31, 2014.

AUM increased by 9% year over year to $113.4 billion as of December 31, 2015, from $104.4 billion as of December 31, 2014. The increase in AUM was driven primarily by contributions and net new enrollment into the Professional Management service, offset by market performance.

Total						100	%

Quarterly Dividend

On February 11, 2016, Financial Engines’ Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share of the Company’s common stock. The cash dividend will be paid on April 5, 2016 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 22, 2016.

Subsequent Event

On February 1, 2016, the Company announced the closing of the acquisition of The Mutual Fund Store for approximately 9.9 million shares of newly-issued Financial Engines common stock and approximately $250 million in cash, subject to certain closing and post-closing adjustments. Following closing, Warburg Pincus became one of Financial Engines’ largest stockholders with a beneficial ownership of approximately 13%. Michael Martin, managing director of Warburg Pincus, joined the Financial Engines’ Board of Directors, effective February 1, 2016.

Outlook

Financial Engines’ growth strategy includes focusing on increasing penetration within existing Professional Management plan sponsors, enhancing and extending services to individuals entering and in retirement, and expanding the number of plan sponsors.

Based on financial markets remaining at February 12, 2016 levels, the Company estimates that its 2016 revenue will be in the range of $383 million and $390 million and 2016 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA will be in the range of $109 million to $114 million.

With the acquisition of The Mutual Fund Store, the Company is currently estimating non-recurring integration related expenses in 2016 to be approximately $15-$20 million, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, with a substantial amount of those costs incurred in Q1 related to the closing.

Integration costs were, in Q4, and will be in 2016, treated as an adjustment to GAAP in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share and shown in the table which reconciles GAAP to Non-GAAP operating results.
