First Quarter 2023 Financial Overview (all comparisons are made to the same period of the prior year unless otherwise noted):

Total revenue decreased 10% to $184.0 million compared to $203.3 million . Prescription transactions revenue (PTR) decreased 13% to $134.9 million compared to $155.5 million , driven primarily by a 5% decrease in Monthly Active Consumers and an ongoing shift in the volume of prescription transactions to certain retailers with lower pricing principally due to the sustained impact of the grocer issue. Pharma manufacturer solutions revenue decreased 13% to $20.4 million compared to $23.5 million , driven primarily by our increased focus on prioritizing recurring service arrangements with customers and a slight moderation in spending by our customers, partially offset by revenue contribution from vitaCare. Subscription revenue increased 26% to $24.1 million compared to $19.1 million , primarily driven by an increase in monthly subscription fees for GoodRx Gold in the first half of 2022, partially offset by a 16% decrease in subscription plans as of March 31, 2023 . Other revenue decreased 14% to $4.5 million compared to $5.2 million , driven by a decrease in the number of telehealth visits on the GoodRx Care platform.

Cost of revenues increased 36% to $16.7 million , or 9% of revenue, compared to $12.3 million , or 6% of revenue, driven primarily by an increase in outsourced and in-house personnel related to consumer support and overhead costs due to the vitaCare acquisition in April 2022 . Adjusted cost of revenues2 increased 35% to $16.5 million , or 9% of revenue, compared to $12.3 million , or 6% of revenue.

Product development and technology expenses decreased 6% to $32.9 million , or 18% of revenue, compared to $35.0 million , or 17% of revenue, driven by a decrease in payroll and related costs and higher capitalization of qualified costs related to software development. Adjusted product development and technology expenses2 decreased 10% to $23.9 million , or 13% of revenue, compared to $26.5 million , or 13% of revenue.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 16% to $78.5 million , or 43% of revenue, compared to $93.0 million , or 46% of revenue, driven by a decrease in advertising expenses, partially offset by an increase in promotional expenses, as we proactively managed our marketing spend in the current environment. Adjusted sales and marketing expenses2 decreased 15% to $74.0 million , or 40% of revenue, compared to $87.1 million , or 43% of revenue.

General and administrative expenses decreased 7% to $29.6 million , or 16% of revenue, compared to $31.9 million , or 16% of revenue, driven primarily by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense principally related to the non-recurring co-founders' awards made in connection with our IPO, partially offset by an increase in payroll and related expenses. Adjusted general and administrative expenses2 increased 12% to $14.5 million , or 8% of revenue, compared to $12.9 million , or 6% of revenue.

Net loss was $3.3 million compared to a net income of $12.3 million , due primarily to the grocer issue, partially offset by a decrease in sales and marketing expense. The change to net loss from net income was also driven by an increase in our provision for income taxes, which was a $6.9 million expense compared to a $1.7 million expense. Net loss margin was 1.8% compared to a net income margin of 6.0%. The acquisition of vitaCare also had a negative impact on net loss and net loss margin this quarter. Adjusted Net Income2 was $29.5 million compared to Adjusted Net Income of $41.3 million .

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $53.2 million compared to $64.7 million , largely driven by the grocer issue, which materially impacted revenue growth, as well as adjusted costs and operating expenses, as a percentage of revenue. The change in Adjusted EBITDA from the impact of the grocer issue was partially offset by a decrease in sales and marketing expense. Adjusted EBITDA Margin2 was 28.9% compared to 31.8%. The acquisition of vitaCare also had a negative impact on Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin this quarter.

Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter was $32.3 million compared to $30.1 million in the comparable period last year, largely driven by a change to net loss from net income, offset by a decrease in cash outflows from working capital changes. Working capital changes were primarily driven by the timing of income tax payments and refunds, as well as by the timing of payments of accounts payable and accrued expenses and collections of accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2023 , GoodRx had cash and cash equivalents of $761.1 million and total outstanding debt of $665.3 million .

GoodRx is focused on a disciplined approach to capital allocation, centered on furthering the Company’s mission and creating shareholder value. Our capital allocation priorities are investing for profitable growth, paying down debt, buying back shares, and M&A that aligns with our strategic priorities. These priorities support GoodRx’s long-term growth strategy while also providing flexibility to navigate near-term challenges.

Share Repurchases

During the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased $9.5 million of Class A common stock, representing approximately 1.6 million shares. As of March 31, 2023 , we had $138.8 million remaining of our $250 million share repurchase authorization approved by our board of directors during the first quarter 2022.

“Our ongoing focus on driving efficiency throughout our organization and strengthening our ecosystem and consumer engagement drove a quarter of solid revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin improvement,” said Karsten Voermann , Chief Financial Officer. “We exited the first quarter with a strong balance sheet and liquidity position, while generating robust operating cash flow. We believe our healthy cash balance provides significant flexibility to successfully navigate any environment. We will continue to prioritize cash conversion and deploying capital in a disciplined way to support our strategic priorities and accelerate value creation,” concluded Voermann.

5 Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure and is presented for supplemental informational purposes only. We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA Margin guidance to GAAP net loss or income margin, because we do not provide guidance for GAAP net loss or income margin due to the uncertainty and potential variability of stock-based compensation expense, acquired intangible assets and related amortization and income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA Margin and GAAP net loss or income margin. Because such items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure. However, such items could have a significant impact on our future GAAP net loss or income margin.

Key Operating Metrics

Monthly Active Consumers (MACs) refers to the number of unique consumers who have used a GoodRx code to purchase a prescription medication in a given calendar month and have saved money compared to the list price of the medication. A unique consumer who uses a GoodRx code more than once in a calendar month to purchase prescription medications is only counted as one Monthly Active Consumer in that month. A unique consumer who uses a GoodRx code in two or three calendar months within a quarter will be counted as a Monthly Active Consumer in each such month. Monthly Active Consumers do not include subscribers to our subscription offerings, consumers of our pharma manufacturer solutions offering, or consumers who use our telehealth offerings. When presented for a period longer than a month, Monthly Active Consumers are averaged over the number of calendar months in such period. Monthly Active Consumers from acquired companies are only included beginning in the first full quarter following the acquisition.

Subscription plans represent the ending subscription plan balance across both of our subscription offerings, GoodRx Gold and Kroger Savings Club . Each subscription plan may represent more than one subscriber since family subscription plans may include multiple members.

We exited the first quarter of 2023 with over 7.0 million prescription-related consumers that used GoodRx across our prescription transactions and subscription offerings. Our prescription-related consumers represent the sum of Monthly Active Consumers for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and subscribers to our subscription plans as of March 31, 2023 .

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. We also present each cost and operating expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations on an adjusted basis to arrive at adjusted operating income. Collectively, we refer to these non-GAAP financial measures as our “Non-GAAP Measures."

We define Adjusted EBITDA for a particular period as net income or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and as further adjusted for, as applicable for the periods presented, acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, financing related expenses, loss on operating lease assets, restructuring related expenses, legal settlement expenses, charitable stock donation, gain on sale of business, and other income or expense, net. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

We define Adjusted Net Income for a particular period as net income or loss adjusted for, as applicable for the periods presented, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, financing related expenses, loss on operating lease assets, restructuring related expenses, legal settlement expenses, charitable stock donation, gain on sale of business, other expense, and as further adjusted for estimated income tax on such adjusted items. Our adjusted taxes also excludes (i) the valuation allowance recorded against certain of our net deferred tax assets that was recognized in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all tax benefits/expenses resulting from excess tax benefits/deficiencies in connection with stock-based compensation. Adjusted Net Income Margin represents Adjusted Net Income as a percentage of revenue.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share is Adjusted Net Income attributable to common stockholders divided by weighted average number of shares. The weighted average shares we use in computing Adjusted Earnings Per Share – basic is equal to our GAAP weighted average shares – basic and the weighted average shares we use in computing Adjusted Earnings Per Share – diluted is equal to either GAAP weighted average shares – basic or GAAP weighted average shares – diluted, depending on whether we have adjusted net loss or adjusted net income, respectively.

We also assess our performance by evaluating each cost and operating expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations on a non-GAAP, or adjusted, basis to arrive at adjusted operating income. The adjustments to these cost and operating expense items include, as applicable for the periods presented, acquisition related expenses, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, financing related expenses, restructuring related expenses, legal settlement expenses, loss on operating lease assets, charitable stock donation, other expense, and gain on sale of business. Adjusted operating income is GAAP revenue less non-GAAP costs and operating expenses.

We believe our Non-GAAP Measures are helpful to investors, analysts and other interested parties because they assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical financial periods. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are also key measures we use to assess our financial performance and are also used for internal planning and forecasting purposes. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate and assess performance.

The Non-GAAP Measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered as alternatives or substitutes to financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA, and presents net (loss) income margin, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, with Adjusted EBITDA Margin:
