eHealth: Wrestling With The Balance Sheet And Costs
Assisting people in finding a suitable Medicare plan is the core business of eHealth, but has been unprofitable due to high customer acquisition cost and uncertain customer lifetime values. The sector on the whole has failed to deliver value to shareholders over the last 12 months, with the three major firms losing roughly 90% of their respective market caps. eHealth's assets are dominated by long-term commissions receivable; this is not straight-forward to value in terms of the time value discount and the reliability of the receivables.
