Scott Flanders, eHealth’s CEO said: “Our third-quarter results reflect strong momentum in our Medicare online enrollments, significant growth in Medicare carrier advertising revenue and an investment in our telesales capacity and technology initiatives ahead of the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period or AEP.
“We entered the AEP on October 15 from a position of strength and are expecting to generate significant Medicare enrollment growth while reducing our per member acquisition costs – a powerful combination.”

However, despite Flanders’ positivity, the market hasn’t reacted well to the earnings report with eHealth’s share price falling in after-hours trading on Thursday and premarket on Friday.
Its share price has plummeted 9.79% to $73.99 after closing Thursday’s regular session at $82.02.
eHealth reaffirmed its full-year guidance for 2020, expecting revenue to be between $630 and $670 million and GAAP earnings per diluted share to be between $2.91 and $3.47.
