Review of Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2016
Revenue increased 43% to $112.4 million for the third quarter of 2016
from $78.8 million for the third quarter of 2015. The increase in
revenue was driven primarily by $29.2 million of revenue for the third
quarter of 2016 related to acquisitions. Professional management revenue
increased 46% to $102.6 million for the third quarter of 2016 from $70.2
million for the third quarter of 2015, driven primarily by $27.2 million
of professional management revenue related to acquisitions.
Costs and expenses increased 56% to $100.9 million for the third quarter
of 2016 from $64.7 million for the third quarter of 2015. This was due
primarily to employee-related costs, including wages, cash incentive
compensation expense and non-cash stock-based compensation expense due
primarily to the addition of approximately 330 new employees gained
through acquisitions. In addition, we incurred a $4.1 million loss on
reacquired franchisee rights. Advisor center variable incentive cash
compensation expense increased, related to ongoing asset management at
acquired advisor centers and fees paid to plan providers for data
connectivity increased. Intangibles amortization and facilities expenses
increased related primarily to acquisitions and marketing programs
expense increased due primarily to radio and digital advertising. As a
percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 45% for the third quarter of
2016 compared to 42% for the third quarter of 2015.
Income from operations was $11.6 million for the third quarter of 2016,
which included a $4.1 million loss on reacquired franchisee rights, $3.5
million of integration expenses attributable to acquisitions, and $2.7
million of additional amortization of intangible assets, compared to
income from operations of $14.1 million for the third quarter of 2015.
As a percentage of revenue, income from operations was 10% for the third
quarter of 2016 compared to 18% for the third quarter of 2015.
Net income was $7.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the third
quarter of 2016 compared to net income of $8.5 million, or $0.16 per
diluted share, for the third quarter of 2015. On a non-GAAP basis,
adjusted net incomeii was $19.4 million and adjusted earnings
per shareii were $0.31 for the third quarter of 2016 compared
to adjusted net income of $12.5 million and adjusted earnings per share
of $0.24 for the third quarter of 2015.
“Our Q3 results show continued balanced growth across our key financial
and operating metrics,” said Ray Sims, chief financial officer of
Financial Engines. “Looking ahead, we believe we will effectively
deliver new offerings that will bring meaningful value to plan sponsors
and their participants and contribute to our sustained long term growth.”
Assets Under Contract and Assets Under Management
AUC increased by 9% year-over-year to $1.04 trillion as of September 30,
2016 from $954 billion as of September 30, 2015, due primarily to
contributions, market performance, and new employers making our services
available, partially offset by cancellations. AUC for plans in which the
Income+ service has been made available was $440 billion as of September
30, 2016, which increased 61% from $273 billion as of September 30, 2015.
AUM increased by 24% year-over-year to $134.4 billion as of September
30, 2016, from $108.0 billion as of September 30, 2015. The increase in
AUM was driven primarily by new assets from new and existing clients,
new AUM of $9.8 billion acquired through acquisition and market
performance, partially offset by cancellations.

Quarterly Dividend
On October 25, 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 January 6, 2017 to
stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 14, 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 October 31, 2016 levels, the
Company estimates that 2016 revenue will be in the range of $421 million
to $423 million, 2016 GAAP net income will be approximately $29 million
and 2016 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA will be approximately $134 million
plus or minus $1 million.
Under typical financial market conditions, Financial Engines estimates
that 2017 revenue will be in the range of $468 million to $475 million,
2017 GAAP net income will be in the range of $49 million to $52 million
and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA will be in the range of $153 million to
$157 million. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA outlook
to our GAAP net income outlook is contained in the accompanying
financial tables.
We are currently estimating the remaining acquisition-related expenses
in the fourth quarter of 2016 to be approximately $5 million, excluding
non-cash stock-based compensation expense, in addition to $14.0 million
of acquisition-related expenses and a $4.1 million loss of reacquired
franchisee rights incurred in the first three quarters of 2016. We also
expect approximately $5 million of acquisition-related expenses to be
incurred in the first quarter of 2017. These expenses will be added back
to net income in the calculation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and
non-GAAP adjusted net income. The related tax effect adjustment will be
calculated using an estimated statutory tax rate of 38.2%.
Please refer to the tables included in this release that reconcile our
GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted net
income and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share.

2016 financial results as well as its 2016 outlook on Thursday, November

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and its attachments include certain non-GAAP
supplemental performance measures. The presentation of this financial
information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP
adjusted net income, and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share. Adjusted
EBITDA represents net income before net interest expense (income),
income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization of intangible
assets, including internal use software, amortization and impairment of
direct response advertising, amortization of deferred sales commissions,
non-cash stock-based compensation expense and expenses related to the
closing and integration of acquisitions, if applicable for the period.
Adjusted net income represents net income before non-cash stock-based
compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets related to
assets acquired, including customer relationships, trade names and
trademarks, expenses related to the closing and integration of
acquisitions and certain other items such as the income tax benefit from
the release of valuation allowances, if applicable for the period,
partially offset by the related tax impact of these items. Adjusted
earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income divided by the
weighted average of dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.
Further information regarding the non-GAAP performance measures included
in this press release, including a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, is contained in
the financial tables and will be contained in the Company’s Form 10-Q to
be filed for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented
on a GAAP basis, management believes that these non-GAAP measures
provide our Board of Directors, management and investors with additional
information and greater transparency with respect to our performance and
decision-making. We feel these performance measures provide investors
and others with a better understanding and ability to evaluate our
operating results and future prospects and provides the same performance
measurement information as utilized by management. These adjustments to
the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both
management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company’s
underlying operational results, trends and performance.
Our management uses non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and
adjusted earnings per share as measures of operating performance, for
planning purposes, including the preparation of annual budgets, to
allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business,
to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and in
communications with our Board of Directors concerning our financial
performance. In addition, management currently uses non-GAAP measures in
determining cash incentive compensation.

The estimated items are provided solely for the purpose of
reconciling our 2016 outlook for GAAP net income to our 2016 outlook
for non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and are not intended and should not be
construed as part of the Company’s outlook for 2016, which outlook
is limited to revenue, net income and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA.
These items are subject to a number of variables which make them
inherently difficult to estimate accurately. In addition, actual
amounts for such items have historically varied and may continue to
vary significantly from period to period. Any variances in these
estimates may in turn have a significant impact on our 2016 outlook
and future GAAP results.
