    Operator

    Good afternoon. My name is Sheryl, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Castlight Health Q4 Earnings Results Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] Thank you. I will now turn the call over to the Castlight Health management team.

    Gary Fuges

    Good afternoon, and welcome to the Castlight Health fourth quarter and full year 2019 conference call.

With that, I’ll turn the call over to Maeve O'Meara, CEO of Castlight. Maeve?

    Maeve O'Meara

    Thank you for joining us on today’s call. Q4 was another strong quarter of delivery against the top priorities I laid out in July after stepping into the CEO role

    solidify our Anthem relationship; execute on concrete initiatives to reinvigorate our direct-to-employer business; establish new growth vectors; and build out our executive team to lead the Company into our next chapter. The team’s achievements over the last two quarters have put the Company in a significantly stronger position than it was just six months ago. More importantly, I believe our work over the second half of 2019 sets the foundation for continued execution in 2020 that, ultimately, will allow us to put the Company back on the path to sustainable growth. In July, we shared our thesis on the need to leverage our technology more fully in the ecosystem. In the immediate term, the broader applicability of our technology is demonstrated in our clear two-part growth strategy. First, we are re-invigorating our direct-to-employer business, building on our position of strength as the market leader. Second, we are expanding our addressable market by building new and durable revenue streams across the broader ecosystem, starting with serving health plans. We believe this expanded strategy for platform monetization will benefit all of our stakeholders, and our work over the last two quarters positions us well for 2020. I’ll begin the call by reviewing our primary achievements in the fourth quarter and then share our 2020 priorities. Afterwards, I’ll turn the call over to Will, who will review our Q4 financial results and outlook for this year. We ended 2019 with annualized recurring revenue, or ARR, of $147 million, which exceeded the $140 million to $145 million target range we shared with you in October. ARR reflects the expansion of the Anthem agreement we signed in October, improved renewal activity in Q4 relative to plan. We are encouraged by the ARR results, and we’re also excited to share a number of other areas of tangible progress in Q4. First, we reached an important milestone by completing all customer migrations off of the legacy wellbeing technology and onto our single-stack Castlight platform. This is a key financial and operational milestone, as it one, reduces our costs as we will no longer need to support two tech stacks; two, enables us to re-accelerate our pace of innovation; and three, allows our employees to turn the page and move forward as a strong, unified team. Second, we successfully launched the first pilot of our high-touch offering, Castlight Care Guides, in November with a Fortune 500 manufacturing company and Castlight Complete customer. As a reminder, Castlight Care Guides is our high-touch offering that leverages our platform to provide personalized support to members who have complex needs or simply require more assistance in navigating barriers to care. To date, we’ve seen strong early results with demonstrable user impact, including multiple examples of our ability to support users in resolving billing errors. Care Guides leverages our deep data infrastructure and AI-enabled personalization to predict a user’s next best action and thus deliver hightouch navigation that’s targeted and cost-effective alongside Castlight’s engaging digital app experience. Because this offering is an extension of our existing platform, we are uniquely positioned to offer high-touch services while maintaining our long-term gross margin profile. Employer demand for navigation continues to rise with the National Business Group on Health’s latest report showing that employer use of these services is expected to grow from 39% in 2019 to 60% in 2020. We are on-track to make this new service generally available in Q3 and have enabled our field teams for this sales season. Third, we met our goal of hiring an experienced commercial leader by the end of the year. This was a critically important hire that we needed in place to lead our 2020 growth efforts, given the seasonality of our business. I’m excited to say we hired our leading candidate and in December we welcomed Keith Reynolds as our new chief commercial officer. He’s leading both our sales and customer success functions, which unifies the management of our two key ARR drivers - new business and customer retention under one executive. Keith brings 25 years of healthcare sales and customer success experience from leadership roles at CVS Health and Aetna, serving most recently as Vice President of Health Plans and Market Strategy at CVS. In addition to broad sales and account management responsibilities, he led the commercialization of many digitally focused plan solutions while at CVS, and also drove growth at a smaller company during Caremark’s early days. Keith is known in the industry as both an experienced and accomplished sales leader. Keith chose Castlight because of a belief in the market and his assessment that Castlight possesses both the strongest technology and team to attack this opportunity. Keith opened the 2020 selling season with our sales kick-off event in January where the team was trained and certified on new messaging, demos, and sales plays. Keith is partnering closely with our newly promoted SVP of Marketing, Tamar Rudnick, a six-year Castlight veteran who served most recently as our VP of Product Strategy and Analytics. Tamar is well positioned to leverage her deep knowledge of our buyer, our market, and our product to support Keith in returning the company to growth. Tamar was instrumental in both defining and bringing Complete to market; her experience leading analytics will be particularly valuable as we seek to leverage more proof points in our go-to-market motion. In addition to the Castlight Care Guides pilot and the significant enhancement of our commercial leadership, we continued our work on the necessary infrastructure to drive more value, improve operational excellence, and develop deeper relationships with our customers and users. During the quarter we continued the build out of our customer center of excellence in Salt Lake City and are on-track to open our permanent office space. This is a great example of the team’s ability to execute on a new initiative in a short time frame to reinvigorate our employer business. Fourth, we made further progress on our strategy to unlock new growth vectors, starting with health plans. There is a clear opportunity to leverage our technology to support health plans in improving health navigation for their members, and Anthem provides a powerful proof point of our ability to effectively partner with health plans. In our last call, I discussed our work to establish the team, the go-to-market plan and the pipeline. In Q4, we built on this foundation and have progressed from meetings to active proposals with multiple health plan prospects. The three areas where we are having the deepest discussions are the full navigation platform, transparency and personalization. Transparency has been particularly top-of-mind, including provider directory, provider quality scoring, and value-based networks. Our white-labeled navigation platform coupled with the ability to embed our functionality into a plan’s user experience allows us to meet the health plan where they are on their technology journey. As we kick off the new year, I am energized by how far we’ve come in two quarters. For 2020, our priorities are to build on these early successes. We are focused on four goals

    First, we will continue our work to revitalize our direct-to-employer business. The leadership of Keith and our extended team are critical to executing on the fundamentals to enable improved sales and retention. We have spoken about the need for operational excellence, credible value, continuous innovation, and strong relationships to support a healthy book of business. We are taking concrete actions against all of these levers, including a significant shift in executive engagement in both sales and retention. With Tamar stepping up to lead marketing and new leadership in our analytics team, we are well positioned to support Keith and his teams with refreshed messaging, collateral, and most importantly, clear demonstration of value. We are also entering the year in a stronger position with over half of our non-Anthem book of business now on Complete. Our second goal is to build on the early success of our Castlight Care Guides pilot and make the offering fully available in Q3 as we deliver the product and introduce it to prospects and customers. What we see and hear in the market supports the National Business Group on Health case study. We have seen significant interest in digital and high touch services, with some prospects viewing high-touch as an attractive add-on capability post launch. We believe we are uniquely positioned to address the hole in the market for a cost effective, digital plus high touch solution. Our third goal is to sign at least one new health plan customer deal in 2020. While sales cycles here are typically 12 to 18 months, we are moving concrete opportunities through the pipeline. We are in a much stronger position with our health plan go-to-market than we were this time last year, due to a dedicated team, developing pipeline, and proof point of our expanded Anthem relationship. We expect to continue partnering closely with Anthem to ensure we deliver value and innovate with our Engage customers, while also adding new membership to the platform. Our fourth goal is to maintain gross margin and improve our operating loss profile as compared to 2019. We are making investments in Castlight Care Guides, given the value of high tech plus high touch navigation in the employer market. That said, we expect to see cost savings from the completion of our Salt Lake City office and R&D efficiencies. We believe we can invest in growth while reducing our loss in 2020. We are excited to turn the page on 2019 and begin 2020 with optimism and urgency. Looking back, I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished since July. We delivered on our promise to expand and extend our Anthem relationship, jump-start a new health plan sales initiative, deliver real product innovation, and enhance our executive leadership. Looking forward, we will use this progress as the foundation for 2020. We have more work to do to fully change the trajectory of our business, but I believe we have the right team in place, the strongest product in the market, and a visible path to return the company to sustainable growth. I want to thank the entire Castlight team for rising to the challenge in 2019 and jumping into 2020 with pride and purpose. I’ll now turn the call over to Will, who will review our Q4 financial results and 2020 outlook. Will?

    Will Bondurant

    Thanks, Maeve. Good afternoon and thank you for joining us today. Our fourth quarter’s financial results reflect continued progress and investments associated with our second-half priorities. We drove sequential ARR growth and improved the stability of our customer book while making targeted and careful investments in the right leadership, technology and infrastructure to accomplish the strategy Maeve just outlined

    reinvigorate our direct-to-employer business and begin penetrating the health plan market. Annualized recurring revenue, or ARR, totaled $147 million at year-end, up $10 million sequentially from Q3. This increase was principally driven by the incremental ARR from the October Anthem enterprise license agreement and improved execution on renewals in Q4 relative to plan. As a reminder, Q4 is a seasonally light sales quarter and a heavy renewals quarter. While churn is a lagging indicator, we believe the improvement on renewals against our expectations was driven in-part by the strategy discussed in Q3

    delivering credible value, continued innovation, and deeper partnerships with our employer customers. As we made progress against these principles, we did sign a small number of customers to short-term extensions in Q4 that enable us to continue our renewal dialog with them into Q1. These renewal discussions are ongoing and their outcomes will be reflected in ARR at the end of Q1. We ended the year with net dollar retention, or NDR, of 94%, which includes the substantial impact of our Anthem renewal and expansion in October. Net of the Anthem impact, NDR would have been in the low 80% range and consistent with the level we saw at year-end 2018. Looking ahead to 2020 renewals, we are encouraged that 75% of ARR is associated with direct Castlight Complete or Anthem. As we said in July, we do believe our point solutions are still at-risk of elevated churn. However, they now account for only one-quarter of our book and we expect them to benefit from the investments we have discussed around retention. Revenue was $36.4 million in the fourth quarter and $143 million for full-year 2019, in-line with our annual revenue guidance range of $140 to $145 million. Subscription revenue accounted for 95% of total revenue and was in-line with our plan. Q4 revenue included approximately $0.9 million of nonrecurring revenue related to the end of customer contracts and performance guarantees. As you may recall, we had a similar dynamic in the fourth quarter of 2018 with $1.5 million of non-recurring revenue and in Q4 2017 with $0.5 million of non-recurring revenue. Professional Services and Other revenue exceeded our expectation due to higher levels of wellbeing users redeeming incentive points for gift cards in the fourth quarter using the Reward Center feature. While this activity is not our core product offering or business focus, user redemptions generate revenue for Castlight that’s net of the gift card cost and fulfillment. In Q4, we saw higher than expected revenue associated with these redemptions, which we believe was due in part to improved stability from re-platforming and Wellbeing customer migrations and by seasonality of the business with end of-year spend deadlines. Now, let’s turn to our fourth quarter non-GAAP financials. Fourth quarter non-GAAP gross margin declined to 58%, driven by a $1.9 million increase in cost of revenue. This increase was primarily driven by one-time factors

    first, the write-off of amortized professional services fees for terminated customers and, second, the investment in our Utah Customer Center of Excellence. In 2020, we expect to return to the gross margin levels we discussed on our prior call

    mid-70% subscription gross margin and low 60% total gross margin. Non-GAAP operating expenses totaled $29.2 million, which include a nonrecurring write-off of amortized commission expense in sales and marketing associated with 2019 terminations and an uptick in G&A due primarily to executive recruiting expenses as we have built-out our team. Based on these factors, fourth quarter non-GAAP operating loss was $8.1 million. We generated $4 million in cash from operations in Q4 and ended the year with approximately $60 million in cash and marketable securities, essentially in-line with our expectations. With that, I’ll now provide our outlook. As Maeve mentioned, 2020 will be a year of continued transformation for Castlight and we are focused on ensuring our resources are deployed efficiently to achieve our strategy and return Castlight to sustainable growth. In terms of our 2020 financials, we currently expect revenue in the range of $130 million to $135 million; non-GAAP operating loss between $17 million and $22 million; and non-GAAP loss per share between $0.12 and $0.15 based on 150 to 151 million shares. The revenue guidance reflects

    first, the impact of the new Anthem enterprise license agreement, which became effective with ratable revenue recognition on January 1st; second, 2019 terminations becoming effective in 2020; and, third, fewer 2019 direct-to-employer sales with 2020 launch dates. Given our new Anthem relationship does not tie revenue recognition to client launches and our 2019 sales were light, we do not expect to see the revenue growth sequentially in each quarter over the course of the year that we have seen historically. Given the investment in our Utah Customer Center of Excellence and the initial deployment of Castlight Care Guides, we expect total non-GAAP gross margin to be in the low 60% range with subscription gross margin remaining in the mid-70% range for the full year 2020. In terms of non-GAAP operating expenses, we currently expect sales and marketing to be within its long-term target range of 20 to 24% of revenue. While R&D will remain above our 20% to 24% target range, we expect to see a high single-digit percent reduction in R&D expense on a dollar basis year-over-year, partly driven by the elimination of the Jiff platform. We expect G&A to be up on a dollar basis versus 2019, reflecting continued costs of security, compliance, investments in operations and talent acquisition. We expect cash used from operations to be in the range of $12 to $17 million and expect to end 2020 with more than $40 million in cash. As with 2019, we expect to see net operating cash flow use highest in the first quarter. As Maeve mentioned, we are focused on aligning resources against key strategic priorities that will return Castlight to growth. We are proud of the efforts of the past six months and our team is hard at work to execute further in 2020 on behalf of our customers and shareholders. Operator, we will now be pleased to take questions.

    Operator

    [Operator Instructions] The first question comes from Jeff Garro of William Blair. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

    Jeff Garro

    Thanks for taking the questions. First I'll ask about retention, sounds like retention somewhat improved in the fourth quarter? And there has been some positive events over the last seven months. So maybe you could help us set expectations for retention in 2020. And describe what's different about the retention conversations versus say a year ago?

    Maeve O'Meara

    So, as Will mentioned, we're pleased to be sitting in a position where we have 75% of our customers on a health navigation solution versus last year we were in the mid 50s. All of that said, we've said it before churn is a lagging indicator. And with a 25% on point solutions, we want to be pragmatic so that we're continuing to assume elevated churn. That said, we are confident that we're taking the right steps and that our rate of attrition is going to decrease over time. And to your point, some of the things that we've put in place certainly contributed to Q4 and the extensions that we talked about. So, we've said our principles around having a healthy focused business include operational excellence, delivering credible value, continuous innovation and having relationships at every level of the organization. We've done really concrete things against those. So recently, we put out a press release on our complete results, which have been extremely well received by our customers in the market those from a methodology and results point of view. We also shared on the last call that we are going to include customers, on customer councils. And we are now close to 50% of our direct ARR participating. And we've really transformed the level of executive engagement. And a lot of that has been under Keith's leadership. So a lot of things look pretty different in these retention conversations. And we do think we're positioned to improve.

    Jeff Garro

    Maybe a follow up, just to clarify in the short-term extension, are those clients that have been on point solutions, or the clients that are on complete and are looking at the results and outcome and engagement of their clients? Any comment throughout among those that are signing short-term extensions?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes Jeff absolutely, it's a good question thanks for the question. As you think about those clients that signed short-term extensions, the small number of them at the end of the year - we were able to engage them with the strategy Maeve outlined, the vast majority of that ARR and the clients are on point solutions. And so we do think there is elevated risk of churn in that book even as we've been able to bring them forward in the conversation, because they are on point solutions.

    Jeff Garro

    Got it. And then I'll ask about the small number of deals you mentioned signed in Q4. I know it's a typically a seasonally light quarter but was wondering whether those deals were competitive or not, and maybe a little more color on why they chose Castlight? And what type of expectations or performance metrics that that you need to achieve with the new business that you've signed? I know you guys have been emphasizing more of a partnership relationship. So curious how that's evolved in those new customer wins.

    Will Bondurant

    Absolutely, I'll quickly answer the numbers and then I think Maeve probably has a lot more to add on the market. Q4 is a heavy renewals quarter, light sales quarter, as you mentioned. And so we were on plan with our direct sales, relatively small number of customers. But happy to be on plan and the majority of those were competitive situations, and so Maeve maybe you can kind of weigh on the broader market and what they're looking for.

    Maeve O'Meara

    Thanks, Jeff. So these were actually hyper competitive deals. And they were competing - we are competing with effectively everyone in the competitive ecosystem. And I think that what differentiated us was actually the complete offering and the willingness to partner. And I'm speaking to some of the larger deals, specifically, but I think the ability to cover the full care spectrum to do it in a personalized way. And frankly, the technology that we're developing from a high touch perspective played a big role in the dialogue as well. But very competitive deals and complete was really what got those across the finish line.

    Jeff Garro

    And one more for me just to hit on the guidance, we talked about retention which is historically been the biggest driver of any variants into your performance versus the guidance. But I want to give you the opportunity to call out anything that could lead to variance in your performance in 2020, versus the guidance that you just outlined?

    Will Bondurant

    Absolutely Jeff. First I'd say 2020 will be a year of transformation for the business you heard that in Maeve prepared remarks. And given that, we've taken a pragmatic approach towards setting expectations for the business, financial outcomes, we understand, kindly, we're in a position where we need to earn trust. As you think about the pieces that could cause this challenge or kind of, maybe we wouldn't hit the guidance but could go wrong. The real element that could and has gone wrong in the past is the in-period churn terminations where customers have given us notice in the course of the year. Looking into 2020, though, we benefit from the Anthem agreement and the ratable revenue recognition there that solidifies a tremendous portion of the revenue and we don't have a high number of in-period launches. So we really feel like, you know, in-period churn is, beyond our expectations, resource downside, but they were poised to execute against those expectations and has managed it in a pragmatic way.

    Jeff Garro

    And then I know, launches typically don't occur in year, but anything that could lead to the upside from the guidance?

    Will Bondurant

    There is always a small number of launch activities or changes that happened in our businesses, our clients made acquisitions or add membership and the like. And so there's some upside, incorporated there. But in general, we entered the year with a pretty clear view of the ARR conversion into revenue. And that's especially true this year given frankly, are relatively light 2019 sales that mean we have fewer in year launches than we might have had in years past.

    Operator

    Your next question comes from Charles Rhyee of Cowen. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

    Unidentified Analyst

    It’s James on for Charles. Can you give us some more color on the progress of the health plan strategy maybe perhaps, the feedback we're getting from health plans and what the pipeline looks like?

    Maeve O'Meara

    So love to talk about it. So this is one of the areas where we made the greatest progress in the second half of the year. So since July, we've put in place an experienced leader, a dedicated team, we've totally refreshed our go-to-market process, and as you mentioned, built the pipeline. One of the reasons we've been able to move quickly is because of the strength of the technology and product and the fact that that's been validated by our Anthem partnership. So what we've seen in the pipeline is a lot of momentum and interest and over the course of those six months, we've started moving deals down the pipe into active proposals, which is effectively why we're optimistic that we can achieve our goal of signing a health plan deal in 2020.

    Unidentified Analyst

    And you talked about subscription margins, being pressured going into 4Q given Care Guides, but looks like professional services cause for maybe a bit higher than we were expecting. Is that in any way related and how we should think about that going into 2020?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, it's not an all related professional services costs are typically high and have been higher in the fourth quarter, because 1/1 is a heavy launch cycle for us. And so as you think about 2020, we expect professional services costs to kind of return to where they've been or actually decreased. The place that we expect frankly, a little bit of margin degradation and the first quarter related to Utah and Care Guides is the subscription line cost of subscription. We do expect though, and we talked about in the prepared remarks the margins to end of the year in the low 60s on the total gross margin and mid 70s in the subscription side.

    Unidentified Analyst

    Okay, great. And what was the total number of customers in 4Q?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, we ended the year in lines with our plans on customer accounts. Given the new Anthem Enterprise license agreement which goes into effect on January 1, we really believe that ARR is the best forward measure of our business and plan to disclose and talk about ARR going forward. But you can know that we ended the year where we said we would in Q3 on customer account.

    Operator

    Your next question comes from Brian Hoffman of Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

    Brian Hoffman

    This is Brian on for Richard Close. Can you just remind us on the go-to-market strategy for Care Guides, will that be sold as a standalone product to new customers? Or will it be more of an upsell to existing customers or could it be a combination of both? And then, specifically, with respect to the Fortune 500 manufacturing customer you mentioned, is that a new or existing customer?

    Maeve O'Meara

    Hi, Brian thanks for the question. So to kind of take a step back for Care Guides, the overall strategy is that ultimately extending the technology to enable high touch is going to allow us to deliver more value to our users and buyers. And since announcing this, I think that's become even just more apparent that that piece is really playing out in the market just from what we're seeing from both interest and then in the pilot. So to answer your question directly, it's available to those new customers as well as existing customers. In the case of the pilot, it was an existing complete customer, and we're observing and learning as best. The thesis here was that the technology and the investments we've made there would allow us to really have head start in building the solution. Specifically our personalization engine and so far that's really kind of been borne out in the pilot.

    Brian Hoffman

    And then I know you're only giving guidance for 2020. But can you give us your thoughts around timing as to when you're expect to turn back to positive non-GAAP operating income. Is that something we could see in 2021 or is that more of a 2022 event?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, absolutely Brian, we're focused today on 2020. And Maeve has talked about the transformation underway in the last six months what we've accomplished then and what we're focused on doing this year. We are both committed, Maeve and I are very committed to returning the business to sustainable growth that's a core focus of ours. But we're really focused on 2020 laser focused on getting there today.

    Brian Hoffman

    And then last one from me. Can you quantify in terms of ARR the amount of the point solution contracts that signed the short extension in 4Q?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, absolutely I can give you some help there. So as you think about, the fourth quarter, we ended the year at 147 million. We had talked about a range of 140 million to 145 million as being our expectation. If you exclude those short-term extensions, we would have ended toward the high end of the range. So, you can think of that point solution based in that range.

    Operator

    Your next question comes from Steve Halper of Cantor Fitzgerald. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

    Steve Halper

    Yes, just to follow-up on the previous question. So what you're saying is that you're assuming a high rate of churn within that - the dollars that short - the clients that signed short-term extensions correct?

    Will Bondurant

    I think we'd say that we're very pleased to have engage these customers in the conversation made strategy around value returned innovation partnership is starting to pay off. But we do know that some of these customers will choose to renew with us some will churn or will renew, but at a degradaded price in the course of the first quarter.

    Steve Halper

    And is there an expectation for a year-end ARR at this point or would you prefer not to talk about that just yet?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, we only provide guidance on our reported financials ARR is a key metric, but there's no kind of forward view of that.

    Steve Halper

    And then the last question going forward, are you going to continue to disclose the number of customers or are we done with that?

    Will Bondurant

    Given the Anthem relationship is, you know 45% or so of our ARR and customer account is not relevant there. And we expect health plans to contribute in similar ways going forward. We don't believe that customer counts a material indicator for forward business and we would point you to ARR.

    Operator

    Your next question comes from Gene Mannheimer of Dougherty & Company. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

    Eugene Mannheimer

    Thanks for taking the questions. So Will two key drivers in delivering ARR above the top of your range this quarter, the Anthem agreement and the renewal activity. It sounds like from your prior comments that the greater contributor to the over attainment was the renewal activity. Is that or were they roughly balanced? How do we think about that?

    Will Bondurant

    Yes, stepping back there were kind of three pieces there, the Anthem Enterprise license agreement, kind of their on planned direct sales and then the improved performance relative to plan on renewals. What I would say is that, the range we provided was one when we knew the impact of Anthem Enterprise license agreement, we signed that in October. In fact, we signed it prior to our Q3 call and talked about it then. And so as you think about our performance relative to the range, it really is a function of renewals. But I want to be clear that the Anthem impact itself was a meaningful portion of the ARR in Q4 sequentially growing over Q3.

    Eugene Mannheimer

    Sure, make sense. And in terms of the 25% of the installed base that is still on point solutions, and I guess, exposed. How should we think about that going forward? I mean would - we take the middle ground and say, half will convert or a third will convert any color around that?

    Maeve O'Meara

    I mean our strategy on the point solutions in many cases is to get them on to the navigation solution. And as we talked about executing against those principles, a number of the reasons that those renewals extended is that they are considering navigation and broader solutions. So, I think that - with all of those were the strategy that we're implementing against those principles is having an effect. We still feel better if they were on the navigation solution today.
