FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ELLIE MAE REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 RESULTS
PLEASANTON, Calif. - October 25, 2018 - Ellie Mae® (NYSE:ELLI), the leading cloud-based platform provider for the mortgage finance industry, today reported results1 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.
Third Quarter 2018 Highlights
Revenues of $123.0 million, up 15% from $107.0 million in 2017.
Net income of $12.4 million, down 14% from $14.5 million in 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA of $40.9 million, up 6% from $38.7 million in 2017.
699,000 loans closed on Encompass.2 
“In the third quarter we grew revenue by 15% and increased revenue per loan 14% year-over-year. We were also able to increase loan volume on our platform year-over-year despite industry mortgage volumes being down 9% on an absolute dollar basis and down approximately 13%3 on a unit basis. Rising rates, low housing inventory, and overall home affordability are serving as significant headwinds to the overall mortgage market. While we believe these headwinds are temporary, they are prompting us to reset our assumptions for the year,” said Jonathan Corr, President & CEO.
“We continue to see strong interest in Encompass as lenders turn to technology to tackle rising costs and to drive efficiency. In the third quarter, we announced a new major release of Encompass and made continued progress on the rollout of our Encompass Connect solutions. Over the long-term, we expect the mortgage industry to trend to a sustained purchase driven market and we believe we are well positioned to drive further market share gains and technology adoption across our large customer base,” concluded Mr. Corr.
Financial Results
Revenues for the third quarter of 2018 were $123.0 million, compared to $107.0 million for the third quarter of 2017. Net income for the third quarter of 2018 was $12.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to $14.5 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017. Net income for the third quarter of 2018 includes the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles related to the Velocify acquisition.
On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2018 was $24.2 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared to $19.9 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2018 was $40.9 million, compared to $38.7 million for the third quarter of 2017.

______________________________
1 On January 1, 2018, Ellie Mae adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method, which replaced the previous accounting standard ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. While the financial results for the third quarter of 2018 are presented under ASC 606, financial results for the third quarter of 2017 are presented under ASC 605. A reconciliation of the financial results for the third quarter of 2018 under ASC 606 and ASC 605, as well as a reconciliation of other non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, is presented in the “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” table included in this release.
2 Closed loans consist of loans originated (which excludes correspondent purchased loans or brokered loans) on the Encompass platform, which is calculated by adding the loans reported to us as originated by our Success Based Pricing lenders and estimating the number of loans originated by the small percentage of lenders that are purely on a subscription service.
3 Assumes annual home appreciation of 4% based on most recently reported Existing Home Sales data and from the change in average loan size on Encompass during the same period.


Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Financial Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2018, revenues are expected to be in the range of $113.0 million to $116.0 million. Net income is expected to be in the range of $0.0 million to $2.0 million, or $0.00 to $0.06 per diluted share. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income is expected to be in the range of $12.4 million to $14.2 million, or $0.34 to $0.39 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $28.8 million to $31.3 million. Per share guidance assumes a weighted average share count of approximately 36.0 million.
For the full year 2018, revenues are now expected to be in the range of $477.0 million to $480.0 million, a decrease from the prior range of $495.0 million to $505.0 million provided on July 26, 2018. Contracted revenues4 are now expected to be in the range of $347.0 million to $349.0 million, a decrease from the prior range of $353.0 million to $358.0 million previously provided. Net income is expected to be in the range of $22.0 million to $24.0 million, or $0.61 to $0.67 per diluted share, which is in line with the range of $19.0 million to $23.0 million, or $0.53 to $0.64 per diluted share previously provided. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income is expected to be in the range of $65.8 million to $67.6 million, or $1.84 to $1.88 per diluted share, a decrease from the range of $64.5 million to $69.5 million, or $1.79 to $1.92 per diluted share previously provided. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $125.3 million to $127.8 million, a decrease from the range of $129.5 million to $134.5 million previously provided. Per share guidance assumes a weighted average share count of approximately 36.0 million.
Additional information about the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their related GAAP financial measures, is set forth below under the section entitled, “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Modification of ASC 606 Adoption
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, which impacted the timing of revenue being recognized for certain success-based customer contracts due to the removal of the prior limitation on contingent revenue. In calculating the Company’s recognized revenue, ASC 606 requires the Company to estimate a portion of future Encompass closed loan fees, which is considered variable consideration under the standard. The standard requires that the Company constrain, or reduce, these estimates such that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. During the third quarter of 2018, the Company determined that it was necessary to apply additional constraints to these future estimates based on factors that should have been known at the time the Company adopted ASC 606 that had an impact on the timing and amount of revenue that the Company recognized in prior quarters. This resulted in a change to certain of the Company’s opening year balances on the Company’s balance sheet and a reduction to the Company’s revenue for the first half of 2018 by an estimated $1.7 million. For further information, please refer to Item 4.02 of the Company’s Current Report Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 25, 2018, which discloses the Company’s intention to amend its financial statements previously reported on Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the first and second quarters of 2018.






______________________________
4 Contracted revenues are those revenues that are fixed by the terms of a contract and are generally not affected by fluctuations in mortgage origination volume. These revenues consist of the base fee portion of success-based revenues, monthly per-user subscription revenues, professional services revenues, and subscription revenues paid for products other than Encompass.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Ellie Mae provides investors with the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, and free cash flow in addition to the traditional GAAP operating performance measure of net income as part of its overall assessment of its performance. In addition, Ellie Mae provides investors with the non-GAAP financial measures under ASC 605 to compare against the Company’s GAAP financial measures under ASC 606. Ellie Mae adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative effect of initially applying Topic 606 as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. The comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect in those prior periods. Adjusted net income consists of net income plus stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related costs, and non-GAAP income tax adjustments. EBITDA consists of net income plus depreciation and amortization, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and income tax provision, less other income, net. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related costs. Adjusted gross profit consists of gross profit plus stock-based compensation and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles that are included in cost of revenues. Free cash flow consists of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less acquisition of property and equipment and internal-use software. Ellie Mae uses adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross profit as measures of operating performance because they enable period to period comparisons by excluding potential differences caused by variations in the age and depreciable lives of fixed assets, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related costs, and changes in interest expense and interest income that are influenced by capital market conditions. Ellie Mae also believes it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation expense from adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross profit because the amount of non-cash expense associated with stock-based awards made at certain prices and points in time (a) do not necessarily reflect how Ellie Mae’s business is performing at any particular time and (b) can vary significantly between periods due to the timing of new stock-based awards. The non-GAAP income tax adjustments are calculated based on the annual non-GAAP effective tax rate, which quantifies the tax effects of the non-GAAP adjustments. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of Ellie Mae’s financial performance under GAAP and have limitations as analytical tools. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, net income, operating income, gross profit, operating cash flow, or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.



Ellie Mae cautions that other companies in Ellie Mae’s industry may calculate adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, and free cash flow differently than Ellie Mae does, further limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, gross profit to adjusted gross profit, and operating cash flow to free cash flow is included in the tables below.

(1) Amount represents the cost of revenues portion of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles.
(2) Prior period amounts have been adjusted to include the third-party transaction costs incurred for legal and other professional services in relation to an acquisition. These costs are non-recurring and are not related to the on-going operating results in the period.
(3) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the non-GAAP effective tax rates are 16.7% and 15.6%, respectively, under ASC 606. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the non-GAAP effective tax rates are 15.9% and 15.0%, respectively, under ASC 605. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 3017, the non-GAAP effective tax rates are 35.0% and 34.8%, respectively, under ASC 605. The non-GAAP income tax adjustments are calculated based on the annual non-GAAP effective tax rate, which quantifies the tax effects of the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and eliminates the effects of non-recurring items which can vary in size and frequency.
