00:00 / 00:00

There are 11 speakers on the call.

Operator

Good day. Thank you for standing by. Welcome to Omada Health Second Quarter twenty twenty five Earnings Conference Call. At this time, all participants are in a listen only mode. After the speakers' presentation, there will be a question and answer session.

Operator

Please note that this conference may be recorded. I will now hand the conference over to your speaker host, Alan Kelth, Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Speaker 1

Thank you. Good afternoon. Welcome to Amada Health's second quarter twenty twenty five earnings call. Joining me today are Sean Duffy, our cofounder and CEO Weili Shao, our president, and Steve Cook, our CFO. Before we begin, I want to note that we will be discussing non GAAP financial measures that we consider helpful in evaluating Omada Health's performance.

Speaker 1

You can find details on how these relate to our GAAP measures, along with reconciliations, in the press release that is available on our website. We'll also be making forward looking statements based on our current expectations and assumptions, which are subject to risk and uncertainties, including factors listed in our press release and in the risk factors found in our filings with the SEC. Actual results could differ materially, and we assume no obligation to update these forward looking statements. With that, I'll turn the call over to Sean.

Speaker 2

Thank you, Alan. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us for Omada Health's first earnings call as a public company. More than a decade ago, we set out to deliver between visit care, a model of health care delivery that we believe is fit for purpose in helping to address today's cost and quality challenges in chronic disease. Our results this quarter reflect continued and steady progress towards our long term mission of bending the curve of chronic diseases. In the second quarter, total members increased 52% year over year to 752,000.

Speaker 2

Revenue rose 49% year over year to $61,000,000. The operating leverage in our business model continued to shine with a 66% q two twenty five GAAP gross margin and a 68% non GAAP gross margin, both improving significantly year over year. We narrowed our GAAP net loss to $5,000,000 compared to $11,000,000 in Q2 twenty four. Finally, we are very pleased to share that our Q2 twenty five adjusted EBITDA loss was $200,000 compared to a $7,000,000 loss in Q2 twenty four. Weili and Steve will soon characterize the details and the drivers of these results, but I wanted to take this opportunity on our first call to do two things.

Speaker 2

First, I want to share a member quote as these inspire our teams, and my hope is that it will inspire you, whether you're a current or prospective shareholder. As one member told us, Omada has changed my life. Diagnosed as pre diabetic a year ago, I began taking a GLP-one and quickly lost weight. A few months later, I'm offered a free scale and an app from Omada, so I signed up. True game changer.

Speaker 2

I am 49 years old and have not weighed this low since I was a freshman in high school and I feel great. I've lost more weight with Omada than without. But it's not just the weight loss, it's the fact that I am truly healthier and happier. The second thing I'd like to do is to provide a brief overview of Omada. Recognize that many of you on this call may be new to our story.

Speaker 2

Omada Health is a between visit care provider. We support patients, we call them members, with prediabetes, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and musculoskeletal disease. When I was in medical school, I saw a problem right in front of me on a daily basis. It's that too much of the care delivered in The US occurs in those one or two visits a year you might have with your doctor. That's not enough, and that's not the right kind of care, especially for the approximately one hundred and fifty six million Americans suffering from chronic disease.

Speaker 2

And I believe that's one reason why America is getting sicker. So what can we do to change that? When my cofounders and I started Omada Health, we first sat in the homes of people struggling with chronic conditions. We heard many stories that highlighted a glaring gap in The US health care system, the lack of proactive day to day support. Too often, people with chronic disease were left with little more than a pamphlet and some well intended advice from their health care providers.

Speaker 2

Meanwhile, the cost to the country are a crisis. Diabetes and cardiovascular disease alone have been responsible for approximately 526,000,000,000 in US health care spend per year. This realization fueled our vision to bring a different care model to the market. We call it between visit care and deliver it through a combination of technology and people that we call compassionate intelligence. At Omada Health, we bring together different types of health care professionals, an array of third party connected devices, and a personalized software experience that blends both people and artificial intelligence to deliver multi condition, contextually relevant care to our members between their doctor's visits.

Speaker 2

The Omada member journey starts with their care teams, which are composed of skilled professionals like health coaches, certified diabetes care and education specialists, and licensed physical therapists with support from licensed clinical social workers. Our care teams get to know Omada members personally, help them develop detailed, actionable care plans, encouraging and advising them when they struggle, and keeping an eye out for health heading in the wrong direction. We also equip our members with seamlessly connected third party hardware, such as digital scales, blood pressure cuffs, and continuous glucose monitors. We then tie the experience together with software that can leverage data science advances, artificial intelligence, and machine learning technology. As we built Omada, we also recognized that we needed to build trust within the clinical community through rigorous research and accreditation efforts.

Speaker 2

We spent a decade funding and publishing peer reviewed research, and we're proud to have 29 publications showcasing our clinical and our economic impact. Our efforts have yielded results we're deeply proud of. Since our inception, we've enrolled over 1,000,000 members in Omada's care programs. We forge partnerships with over 2,000 employers, health plans, and pharmacy benefits managers, achieving high levels of customer satisfaction and retention. These customers increasingly trust Omada to do more for them.

Speaker 2

Over time, we've expanded in new care areas, and we're proud that as the end of last year, approximately 31% of our customers are covering programs with Omada across multiple conditions, signaling the growing demand for comprehensive integrated care solutions. Equally, we feel we're at the very beginning of our journey, though we're proud of our success. As of the end of last 2024, we'd only penetrated approximately fourteen percent of the self insured lives in The US, nine percent of fully insured, and one percent of Medicare Advantage. We estimate our total addressable market to be more than 135,000,000,000, and we believe there is ample white space ahead. We're proud to be offering our new enhanced GLP-one CareTrack in the midst of a broader GLP-one revolution.

Speaker 2

Our clients have asked us decisively to support their members on GLP ones, reflecting the reality that an injection doesn't get to know you, and a medication alone does not support behavior change. We believe that the answer to the dynamic GLP one landscape are services alongside the medicines, and we work with two of the three major PBMs providing just that. Lastly, the world is experiencing a revolution in artificial intelligence, and AI technology stands to benefit our members and customers alike. We're in the first chapter of leveraging these incredible innovations to support our member success and to add personalization and efficiency for our care teams. I'm also proud that we're part of an emerging category of next generation digital health companies that seek to differentiate based on greater convenience, better clinical outcomes, and lower cost care models that include both telehealth and AI enabled care designed to deliver meaningful returns on investment.

Speaker 2

At our company town halls, I always tell our teams that our hope is that one day, tomorrow's epidemiologists will notice a bend in disease curves, wonders what might be happening, and conclude that part of that impact has been Omada. That's our explicit mission at Omada, to bend the curve of disease. And we look forward to pursuing it alongside our new and our prospective shareholders. With that, I'll turn the call over to Wei Li.

Speaker 3

Thanks, Sean. Hello, everyone. To start, I'd like to echo what Sean started with. I'm extremely proud of our teams and how they've executed against our strategy and how they've delivered strong results. It's an exciting time to be in Omoden, and I consider it a privilege to discuss progress against our strategy and our second quarter performance.

Speaker 3

Some highlights include, we ended the quarter with 752,000 active members, which is up 52% compared to q two twenty twenty four. This includes us adding 73,000 net new members during the second quarter and 180,000 year to date. This is 71% more members than we added in the 2024. This member growth reflects continued multi condition adoption, strong sales of our GLP-one offerings, and strong execution by our teams. I believe our strong top line results and member growth are the result of a go to market strategy that has long been anchored on three pillars.

Speaker 3

We believe that these three pillars in combination with our market scale have driven our strong performance in q two and our reasons to believe in Omada's continued success. Let me take a moment to reinforce the underpinnings of our strategy. Our first pillar is innovation, which we deliver by investing in program features and experiences to strengthen our differentiation, support our growth, and help members achieve outcomes across conditions that our buyers care about. Our GLP one CareTrack and our recent released Omada Spark AI agent are great examples of this, and I will share more about both in just a moment. Second, we strive to create programs that work.

Speaker 3

Omada's programs are rooted in clinical best practices, and our persistent empathetic support from our care teams fosters trust and accountability to promote sustained engagement and meaningful clinical results. Our programs are focused on some of the conditions that our buyers care about most and their employees and members often suffer from the most, which can drive the most cost. These conditions are obesity and weight health, diabetes, hypertension, and MSK. These diseases are highly prevalent, and the combined TAM is substantial. Third, our multi condition platform versus point solution approach has become a key differentiator in our sales process.

Speaker 3

Many customers and channel partners experience point solution fatigue and recognize that their members suffer from multiple conditions. They see value in having a single, reliable, scaled partner because it simplifies contracting, account management, implementation, member outreach, and most importantly, the member experience. It's helped us both win new business and expand relationships with existing customers. These three strategic pillars have resonated with buyers and members, which has allowed us to achieve our current scale. Combined with our disciplined focus, our scaled go to market model gives us confidence that we are well positioned to achieve durable growth.

Speaker 3

Now when we talk about scale, we're referring to the following. The population of covered lives we reach through our channel relationships, the selling and marketing efficiencies gained by partnering with large payers and PBMs to offer our programs broadly to employers, and our data driven marketing initiatives, which included nearly 100,000,000 targeted emails across 5,000 campaigns in 2024, driving enrollment while supporting continuous optimization through AB testing. While our estimated total addressable market of over 135,000,000,000 across all of the conditions we serve represents significant opportunity over the long term, we think it's useful to look at the more near term opportunity we have through already established channel relationships. At the 2024, our existing health plan partners provided health insurance for a 156,000,000 lives across their networks. That population combined with our other current customers represented an estimated 20 plus million individuals with benefit coverage for one or more Omada programs.

Speaker 3

Just within these 20 plus million estimated covered lives we have today, we have significant growth opportunities, and we are focused on generating additional revenues from these existing covered lives through efforts to increase enrollment rates, enhance member engagement and outcomes, drive higher multi condition solution adoption, and capitalize on our opportunities to provide GLP one companion support. In addition, we have relationships with two of the nation's largest PBMs that, as of March 2024, collectively offered pharmacy benefits to over 200,000,000 individuals, which represents a significant opportunity for us to increase the number of covered lives we serve. While we are proud of our progress, our work is far from finished. Our ongoing momentum has continued to attract new customers, including a relationship we recently established with a leading health navigation platform. Through this partnership, we replaced an incumbent diabetes vendor to become this partner's preferred provider of diabetes care.

Speaker 3

Within a matter of months, we together closed and launched a new health plan client. We view this competitive win as a clear example of sophisticated buyers turning to Omada to deliver scalable evidence based care. This level of scale, which we are focused on continuing to expand, works with three strategic pillars I mentioned before. With that in mind, let me take a few moments to update you on our progress with each of these pillars. With regard to innovation, we recently launched Omada Spark, a member facing AI agent that works directly with our members and alongside our human care teams.

Speaker 3

Our members asked for food imaging, and we delivered. But I think we delivered in an incredible way that can wow our members. With just a single image of your meal, our AI powered tracker identifies the ingredients and estimates macronutrient information, including protein, fiber, added sugars, and saturated fats. These are the nutrients that we believe are most important to consider when improving health outcomes, especially for members who have taken GLP-1s or have diabetes, hypertension, and or obesity. Now we've trained Omada Spark on over 3,000,000 foods from more than 150 countries to support members in tracking even the most culturally specific dishes.

Speaker 3

Additionally, members can talk or text with Omada Spark to get real time nutrition information. Omada Spark can recommend alternative foods and answer questions regarding nutrition education in the moment. Because your AI agent is informed by key member demographics, it provides responses with members like you in mind. Omada Spark has the ability to help you focus on your goals. In this context, its job is to have conversations with you to help you understand your motivations and help you create a plan to navigate motivational challenges that work for you.

Speaker 3

This is the power of motivational interviewing, an empathetic technique that can strengthen your intrinsic motivation for change. Omada Spark can help you articulate why and how you want to adopt healthier habits and help you make changes along with help from our care team. Our goal is to leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning to support our scale, enhance the experience of our members, and amplify the impact of our programs. Now we take a human led AI empowered approach using AI insights to support our care team by providing instant context and synthesizing member data points to enable more efficient and productive interactions with our members. We also continuously strive to deliver programs of work, the second of our three strategic pillars.

Speaker 3

Our GLP-one support strategy aims to enable the success of our members before, during, and after GLP-one therapy, and we have demonstrated that members can achieve significant results by coupling behavior change alongside the medication. Now these capabilities have contributed to our GLP-one companion program being available through two of the largest PBMs, and in both relationships, our full cardiometabolic suite is also available. We believe some of the key drivers of our success in GLP-one companion support are our member engagement and clinical outcomes results. Notably, members on our enhanced GLP-one care track, included in a retrospective analysis, experienced 28% greater weight loss on average after the first four months compared to members on GLP-1s that enrolled in Omada programs without the enhanced GLP-one CareTrack. In a separate retrospective analysis, members who discontinued their GLP-1s and opted into the Care Track embedded in our cardiometabolic programs maintained their weight loss on average at four months post discontinuation, represented by an average weight change of minus 0.1%.

Speaker 3

This compares to estimated average weight gain of approximately 6% to 7% at four months in two third party randomized control trials. In addition, we recently released new data demonstrating that Omada's enhanced GLP-one care track significantly improved persistent rates for GLP-one medications. Members in the analysis of our enhanced GLP-one care track achieved ninety four percent persistence through twelve weeks and eighty four percent through twenty four weeks, with those staying on medication for twenty four weeks experiencing an average weight loss of 12.1%, which closely aligns with clinical trial results. This is important because in the real world, factors like non persistent medication mean that many of those who use GLP-1s for weight management may not see the results reflected in clinical trials. This highlights our program's effectiveness in helping members to overcome real world barriers and achieve weight loss comparable to what's seen in clinical trials, which helps with cardiometabolic disease reduction.

Speaker 3

These results demonstrate the benefits of Omada's clinically rigorous approach to behavior change. In sponsoring and publishing research, we seek to demonstrate our outcomes, bolster credibility, and strengthen our position in the market. We believe our clinical leadership differentiates us amidst a crowded market of digital health solutions. Our focus on innovation and programs that work also support our multi condition platform versus point solution strategy, which is our third strategic pillar. Because of our broad evidence based multi condition platform, we've had success at growing the percent of clients that offer multiple Omada programs.

Speaker 3

We ended 2024 with approximately 31% of our existing clients having multiple products installed, up from 26% in 2023. We are encouraged by our progress in the 2026 and are optimistic as we head into the second half of the year, which has historically been our key closing season where many buyers make benefits decisions. At the root of this multi condition success is the realization that most Americans with a chronic condition have not just one, but two or more comorbidities. For example, approximately fifty eight percent of people with diabetes also have an MSK condition, and Omada is the only digital provider among our largest competitors to have solutions for both conditions. To close, I'd like to reiterate how pleased I am with our results, which I believe were a direct result of both our result to execute our strategy and our go to market scale.

Speaker 3

With that, I'll turn the call over to Steve.

Speaker 4

Thank you, Wheely. Hello, everyone. Today, I'm gonna walk through our results, margin progress, and our outlook for 2025. As Sean and Wheely mentioned, our members grew 52% to end q two at 752,000. Revenue in q two was $61,400,000, up 49% year over year.

Speaker 4

The primary factors driving our member and revenue growth include increased penetration of multi condition customers, strong adoption of our GLP one programs, and increased effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Moving to gross profit. Our q two GAAP gross profit was $40,000,000, up 62% compared to q two twenty four, and our GAAP gross margin was 66% compared to 60% in q two twenty four. Q two adjusted gross profit was $42,000,000 representing 61% growth year over year. Adjusted gross margin was 68%, an improvement of approximately 500 basis points year over year and 700 basis points sequentially.

Speaker 4

For those new to Omada, I'd like to note that historically, our gross margins have typically been lower in the first quarter than the rest of the year due to elevated enrollments in q one. Our enrollments feature front loaded costs related to device shipment and early program care, driving lower initial gross margins that typically have increased over the lifetime of the member's program life. As such, historically, we typically observed higher gross margins after q one, which is consistent in q two this year with a significant sequential improvement. More broadly, our gross margin expansion has been driven by natural leverage in our business that historically has occurred as the revenue from our expanding member base has grown faster than the cost to support the members. We've also gained efficiencies through our self built care team platform, which we continue to enhance by adding capabilities such as an AI care team tool that helps synthesize member data points to support more efficient and productive interactions with our members.

Speaker 4

Moving to operating expenses. Our GAAP operating expenses were 28% year over year to $45,000,000 in q two and included $22,000,000 of sales and marketing, $10,000,000 of r and d, and $13,000,000 of g and a. Our adjusted operating expenses were $42,000,000 in q two, also up 28% year over year. The breakdown of our our adjusted operating expenses included sales and marketing of $21,000,000, up 48% year over year, primarily reflecting higher administrative fees that we pay channel partners for services they provide in support of member enrollments. Historically, it has been typical for these fees to increase when we have strong member growth.

Speaker 4

I'd also like to note that year over year growth rate in q two was higher because the prior period in q two twenty four included a onetime reversal of administrative fees that reduced sales and marketing expense in that period, resulting in an atypically lower prior year comparable. This is a onetime occurrence that did not repeat in Q3 or 2024, and so those prior year quarters should not cause the same increase in year over year comparisons of sales and marketing expense later this year. Moving to r and d, which was $10,000,000, up 11% year over year. G and a of $11,000,000 was up 12% year over year with the increase primarily driven by public company costs. In summary, 28% growth in total GAAP and non GAAP operating expenses supported 49% revenue growth, reflecting strong operational leverage.

Speaker 4

This progress has been driven by leverage created by offering multiple conditions on one platform that can be sold by a single Salesforce, scale created by our relationship with channel partners in our b to b to c go to market approach, and spending discipline as we focus on making progress toward profitability. Moving to our progress toward profitability. Our GAAP net loss in q two was $5,000,000 compared to an $11,000,000 loss in q two twenty four, representing net loss margins of negative nine and negative 26%, respectively. Our GAAP loss per share in q two was 24¢ compared to a loss of $1.40 in q two twenty four. Adjusted EBITDA in q two was a loss of $200,000, which compares to a loss of $7,000,000 in q two twenty four.

Speaker 4

Our q two adjusted EBITDA margin was negative point 3% compared to negative 16% in q two twenty four. We're very pleased with our progress through q two towards reaching profitability, which has been achieved through a lot of focus by our team on building a scalable business in a disciplined manner. Moving to our balance sheet. We ended q two with cash and equivalents of $223,000,000 compared to $59,000,000 in q one twenty five, with the increase being driven by our net IPO proceeds. Our total debt at the end of q two was $31,000,000.

Speaker 4

Note that subsequent to the end of the second quarter, we paid off our debt, which we believe was a prudent use of IPO proceeds given the interest rate on our debt. Moving to guidance. We expect 2025 revenue in the range of $235,000,000 to $241,000,000. This range represents 38 to 42% growth over 2024. We expect full year adjusted EBITDA in the range of negative $9,000,000 to negative $5,000,000 The midpoint of this range reflects an improvement of approximately $22,000,000 compared to 2024.

Speaker 4

Summary, we are pleased with our strong Q2 performance and outlook, which reflect our business momentum and scalability of our business model. With that, we'll now open the call for questions.

Operator

Thank you. And our first question coming from the line of Craig Hennepath with Morgan Stanley. Your line is now open.

Speaker 5

Yes, thank you and appreciate all the details in the prepared remarks. Just building on the topic of kind of AI and tech, can you just expand on just how you're leveraging technology to scale the platform? Any anecdotes in terms of care team efficiencies and the ability to continue to do that moving forward?

Speaker 2

Yeah, absolutely. Craig, this is Sean. Great to hear your voice. So though we, of course, talk a lot about GLPs, I will say we're equally excited about GPTs. So it really is the year of the Gs here at Amada.

Speaker 2

And I'll just kinda there's so much internal enthusiasm on how these technologies can benefit three aspects of what we do. Number one, how they benefit our members. Number one, how they benefit our care teams for not just more leverage but more personalization and impact. And number three, how they benefit the business. So we have an innovation showcase that we call Horizon Day here at Omada that happened in May in Wei Li's prepared remarks.

Speaker 2

He talked about Omada Spark, and so that consists of AI capabilities for our members, an enhanced food tracking capability that enables AI enabled photo recognition. It identifies the ingredients and estimates macronutrient information like protein, fiber, added sugars. It really has a wow factor for our members as well as reducing that barrier to inputting food. We launched a nutrition education agent which surfaces real time nutrition information which helps with food decisions. And importantly, this was fine tuned on over 3,000,000 foods from more than a 150 countries.

Speaker 2

And Omada Spark also has a version that's a motivational interviewing agent that supports guided conversation to help members identify their own barriers. So really exciting. We're we're liking what we see in the data thus far. And then per your comment on the care teams, this is a moment to remind those newer to Omada that we chose in the early Omada days to build our entire proprietary platform for our care teams ourselves. And so, this has enabled us to speedily embed AI technologies natively into a number of feature sets.

Speaker 2

One that we're particularly excited about allows our care teams to get quicker context on member behavior, messages, data trends. And in 2024, we launched this tool. The pilots indicate some great data. The coaches were able to spend 23% less time during the first week of a member joining while seeing a seven percentage point increase in the rate of substantive member replies. So, really, this represents quality at higher efficiency, which is in essence the holy grail of these technologies.

Speaker 2

So we're excited about them. As you might imagine, even internally, we're leveraging them for business operations. Our engineering and product teams are having a blast coding with AI assistance tools. And we love our datasets, which we feel blessed about because we have tens of millions of free text messages that give us the latitude to experiment in the context where the most valuable data for an LLM could be argued to be free text message as well as biometric, you know, data points. So, Nat, we're excited by it.

Speaker 2

We think we're at early innings, but we like promise in the horizon's ahead.

Speaker 4

Hey, Craig. I would just add, you know, from a from an upside perspective, we've been very judicious in terms of how we're up up underwriting the upside from AI. So while we're still in the early innings of AI, we're not really attributing a ton of upside from a gross margin perspective and that in our current long term target gross margin of 70%. So to the extent we start to see some early wins here and either higher member engagement or coach efficiencies, we'll continue to underwrite that here towards the end of the year and going forward into our long term targets.

Speaker 5

That's helpful. And then just as a follow-up, maybe I'll do a twofer on the Gs. The GLP-1s, I think on the Care Track, you've had like around 50,000 members. Any update in terms of how that's trending and just kind of traction you're seeing in terms of growth for that program?

Speaker 3

Yes. Hi, Craig. This is Wei Li. Thanks for the question regarding GLP-one traction. We continue to be pleased with the momentum of our GLP-one CareTrack as we've seen significant total overall number growth quarter to quarter, H1 to H1 previous to last year.

Speaker 3

And a significant driver or contributor to that has been our GLP-one business. So we're really pleased to see that. It is important to note that the GLP-one CareTrack, as it relates to total revenue as well as total numbers, still is a minority of the volume of new members that are coming into our business. And so GLP-1s, we're pleased with the progress. We're seeing momentum.

Speaker 3

But the broader part of our growth still is coming from our core cardiometabolic platform across diabetes prevention, weight health, diabetes itself management, well as hypertension and MSK.

Speaker 5

Got it. Thanks, Lily.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question coming from the line of David Roman with Goldman Sachs. Your line is now open.

Speaker 6

Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone. I want just to start on the member growth side and maybe you could help us with two things. One is maybe just deconstruct a little bit the strength that you're seeing continue here in the second quarter. And I think that brings four quarters of very strong growth in membership into play here.

Speaker 6

And then secondly, just remind us the way you think about members. Think in the case of Omada, membership is actually a good proxy for utilization based on how you define it. And then I had one P and L follow-up.

Speaker 3

Yeah, thanks a lot for the question regarding member growth. As just mentioned, as well as in the prepared remarks, a nice driver of member growth year over year has been our GLP-one CareTrack, but still represents a minority of our total membership. We continue to see broader growth in our total membership across our cardiometabolic suite, and so we'd like to see that. In terms of what's driving the actual growth is not only our continued success in upselling and bringing on new clients with our multi condition strategy, we continue to see success there. But I would add on to that, you know, last year in 2024, we managed to improve member outreach productivity and effectiveness by over 60% year over year.

Speaker 3

So a lot of that improvement that we saw last year is converting and bringing and carrying over into this year. And, also, we continue to optimize our outreach not only across email but multichannels, and we're seeing continued improvement on the productivity front there too as well. So it's really a combination of continued closed more deals, upselling more deals, bringing new covered lives into the funnel. And then once we have those covered lives in the funnel, continuously improving on the productivity of our outreach. That's really kind of the underpinning of what we're seeing on the robust growth that we're reporting out.

Speaker 4

Yeah. And then, David, just on the second part of your question with regard to DEF and L, actually, members are someone who we are actively billing on. That's someone that we've billed on at least once in the prior twelve months. And then you had a little bit of a question there around utilization. So historically speaking, we've demonstrated to keep 55% of our members engaged at the end of year one.

Speaker 4

And then we see a very slight drop up, but not much of a drop up by the time we get to twenty four months where we still have 50% of that same population continuing to stay engaged in the program. That's a weighted average across all of our programs. Obviously, folks who are diabetic and hypertensive tend to stay in a little bit longer, whereas the folks on the prevention weight health side tend to stay little bit less.

Speaker 6

Very helpful. Then maybe on the P and L, appreciate the progress on profitability that you showed here in the second quarter. As you look forward, how are you thinking about the balance between reinvesting for future growth subsequent to the proceeds coming in from the IPO and achieving a fairly rapid path to profitability? And where are some of the incremental areas of investment you might deploy those resources?

Speaker 4

Yeah, thank you for the question. We're extremely happy with the quarterly performance here, again, growing 49%, and we saw a large portion of that drop directly to the bottom line, again, really related to the comments that Wheely just mentioned. As we think about the back half of this year, we really want to continue to making some very strategic and targeted investments. We're feeling a tremendous amount of market opportunity within the GLP-one landscape. We've motioned some investments in the front half of this year.

Speaker 4

We'll continue to make more investments in the back half of the year as well. We talked about AI, obviously a very dynamic moment in the market. We're going to continue to invest in AI in the back half of the year as well to really set us up for 2026. And then on the IPO side and the public company side of the equation, we are carrying some more additional costs in the back half of the year in G and A associated with increased costs for D and O insurance, well as we made some investments in the accounting team to make sure that we can operate as a public company. But we're right now about to enter the back half of the year where we enter our annual planning process, and we're really attempting to balance growth and profitability.

Speaker 4

We're going be really adjudicating over the next couple of months, making sure we make targeted and strategic investments to continue to grow the top line while also having a lens to continue to run the business profitably. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question coming from the line of Saket Kalia with Barclays. Your line is now open.

Speaker 7

Great. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my questions here and congrats on your first quarter as a public company.

Speaker 4

Thank you. Thank you. Sure.

Speaker 7

Sean or Wei Lee, maybe for both of you, I was wondering if you could talk about the competitive landscape a little bit. You know, there's great secular adoption within your existing customer base, but I'm curious what you're seeing competitively with new customers.

Speaker 3

Yeah. Thanks a lot for the question. Obviously, as we approach the closing season, which really is in H2, we're really, really focused on the competitive dynamics. What we're continuing to see really can be characterized into two buckets. The first one, of course, as mentioned in prepared remarks and earlier answers to some questions, is continued momentum around the GLP-one care track.

Speaker 3

We like what we see there, especially as it relates to the high levels of engagement we're seeing in the program, as well as the clinical outcomes we're posting, not only while on a GLP-one, but also after a number of discontinues at GLP-one, continued efficacy in terms of when it comes to maintaining weight loss. And that is a big differentiator in the marketplace right now as it relates to any competitive situation where we're trying to sell through our GLP-one CareTrack. The other category of competitiveness that I would talk about in Dynamics is related to really the rest of our portfolio regarding our cardiometabolic business as well as MSK. And it really comes back to kind of the strategy we've just been methodically executing on, and I feel like the team's been super disciplined on over the last several years around the dimensions of competitiveness that continue to resonate with our buyers, not only against existing customers that have been in the marketplace for a while, but also maybe even newer competitors that are trying to gain some traction in the marketplace. And as a reminder, they're pretty straightforward, and that's what you know Omada for, but they are the following.

Speaker 3

The first one is a human led proactive care approach. Of course, enabled by technology and the latest generative AI features, for instance, Omada Spark AI agent that we launched. And then secondly, our commitment to clinical evidence and demonstrating healthy return on investment. That continues to be important. And then also on top of that, of course, is our multi condition platform and strategy approach.

Speaker 3

There are other factors like post sale experience, which is really important to get that additional second, third, fourth product upsell, But we find that still to continue to resonate in the marketplace very, very competitively. You know, in our particular marketplace, there are no really reliable or there are no real market share reports. And so, you know, one of the questions oftentimes is, well, how do you know and can you give us a sense for how that is resonating and translating into sales performance? And we think that maybe a decent surrogate is looking at global app downloads. There's a company called Sensor Tower that provides global app load down data.

Speaker 3

And we've been tracking that for quite some time. And for sequential quarters and months, we find that a pretty big gap between total global app downloads for Omada versus any number of competitors within our sector, and that continues to be true even with the latest updated data. So we feel like there's a good translation of not only our GLP one CareTrack and what we've done there, but also kind of just the strategy around competitive positioning that we've been executing for years continuing to resonate in the marketplace with our buyers.

Speaker 2

And second, this is Sean. The only build I'd offer on top is the vast majority of deals we close do consist in the white space. I shared in my remarks that Omada has penetrated 14% of self insured, 9% of fully insured, 1% of Medicare Advantage. So, it's quite common that we meet clients that don't have anything. Equally, in Weili's prepared remarks, we talked about the takeover of an incumbent diabetes vendor.

Speaker 2

That's equally something that we're seeing with increased frequency and watching for opportunities to progress more of that as we enter closing season.

Speaker 7

Understood. Very helpful. Maybe for the follow-up for you, Steve. Great to hear about more GLP-one CareTrack adoption. Can you just remind us how pricing there looks versus the other modules?

Speaker 7

Just as we maybe think about blended ARPU over time as presumably GLP CareTrack becomes a bigger and bigger portion of the mix.

Speaker 4

Yes. No, great question, Saket. And just a reminder, GLPs are still currently in the minority of our total enrollees. So their ability to move our weighted average ARPU is going to take some time. As you know, we still have a lot of our total enrollees in the core cardiometabolic offerings.

Speaker 4

In terms of where it sits within our pricing structures, it's priced at a premium to our prevention and weight health products, but still below hypertension and below diabetes. So it's really the relative growth rate that we'll see in GLP-1s. To the extent it overperforms and outpaces prevention of weight health, it does have the ability to lift blended ARPU over time, so do diabetes and so do hypertension as well. That's why we're extremely focused on those condition areas.

Speaker 7

Very helpful. Thanks, guys.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question coming from the line of Elizabeth Anderson with Evercore ISI. Your line is now open.

Speaker 8

Hi, guys. Congrats on your first quarter out in the market. It's great to see the results here. I had just a question about the selling season. Obviously, you signed CVS, which gives you sort of access to some of a bunch of their members.

Speaker 8

Is there anything you could specifically call out that resonating with that client book and just any progress on the early selling results there? And then maybe as a follow-up, obviously, Steve was just talking about the sort of industry leading retention results in terms of, users still on the platform one to two years later. How do you think about how the evolution of that, as we move through the next couple of years? That number has obviously been high and coming up over time, but how do we think about sort of incremental nudges or the use case of AI that you guys mentioning on the food side, maybe as an example?

Speaker 3

Yeah. Hi, Elizabeth. This is Wei Lee. Great to hear from you. Thanks for your question.

Speaker 3

Regarding selling season, you also mentioned CVS. Yes, we went to markets and have a relationship with CVS. Of our products, including our GLP-one CareTrack are listed on their platform. We went to markets through CVS earlier this year, and we're kind of pleased with the early signs. Obviously, in 2025, you know, because of the enterprise motion usually takes, you know, twelve, eighteen months to kind of gain any traction.

Speaker 3

We don't expect any material contribution in total membership growth in 2025, but we do look for growth in our pipe as it relates to closing new deals. As it relates to CVS as well as across our portfolio, our pipe is building nicely. But as we all know, we're just entering the selling and closing season literally just right now. And so we're gonna be excited and anxiously awaiting to kind of see how those deals convert in a closed one towards the end of the of the year. So nothing to share right now in terms of total progress on closed won deals or our pipe, but we do like what we're seeing.

Speaker 3

And again, we'll be tracking it very, very closely over here at the back half of this particular year. As far as other traction in engagement of our membership, we continue to see continued engagement in our membership. We're going to be tracking very, very closely. Obviously, the GLP-one CareTrack members are newer to our business, just over the last maybe eighteen, twenty four months. And so we're going to continue to track how that engagement goes.

Speaker 3

But we, again, like what we see there, and we're gaining momentum. And, Elizabeth, this is one thing

Speaker 2

we love about our pricing model. I mean, as as you know and for those who, you know, perhaps don't, we charge when people sign up, and we continue to build such that they're engaged. So the better our product experience becomes, the more, you know, engagement ideally we can get, the more revenue we'll capture, and ultimately, it's about the outcomes and bending the curve. So, you know, advances like AI are just one one additional, you know, error in the quiver to to just build experiences that members absolutely love, that feel personalized to them, that feel that they're that let them feel that they're getting just incredible support for Omada, you know, optimally, that'll be reflected engagement progress over time, which will be one of the levers of growth for Omada.

Speaker 8

Great. That's super helpful. And I'm interested personally in this food scanner thing too, so let me know.

Speaker 2

We'll let you try it. It's pretty fun. Thank

Operator

you. Our next question coming from the line of Richard Close with Canaccord. Your line is now open.

Speaker 4

Yes, thanks for the questions. Congratulations on a very strong start. Maybe a question for Steve here. Just curious if you could talk a little bit about the gross margin progression through the rest of the year. Obviously, outperformed us by a significant amount here in the second quarter.

Speaker 4

And just curious if we should assume sort of that typical continued stair step in the back half that you have done in the past. I'll start there. Richard, yes, thank you so much for the question. Obviously, I'm extremely proud of what we did in Q2 ending at 68% gross margin. Maybe just to reorient everyone, we do observe gross margin seasonality in our business.

Speaker 4

Q1 historically has been our lowest gross margin quarter for net new enrollment volume associated with the annual benefit cycle. So what you have happened there is we have increased care team costs because our care teams are ramping up our new members, and then we're also shipping a higher amount of hardware in the first quarter to make sure that folks are set up on the program. What we've typically observed historically is that you then see a tick up from Q2 and then the rest of the year. If you look back to 2024, we started the year at 52% gross margin. We exited the year at 69% gross margin.

Speaker 4

So we really like the setup that we currently have for the back half of the year, going from 60% in Q1 and then increasing to 68% in Q2. We really like how that's currently being set up, but we're not commenting on how that's going to build for the back half. Thank you. Okay. And then my follow-up is to maybe better understand the member progression through the year.

Speaker 4

You sell during the year, that's the benefit year launches, you get a lot of members signing up in that first quarter. Obviously, in the second quarter, you significantly outperformed. And I'm just curious, are the dynamics changing a little bit now that you have the GLP-one CareTrack? And how should we think about membership in the back half in terms of new members coming on?

Speaker 3

Yes. Hi, Richard. Let me comment on that regarding member progression. I think there's a couple of things to note. I think the first one is that as we continue to study our member outreach and optimize and do all the AB testing that we've been doing for several years now, you know, that could influence changes in number volume that may look a little bit different compared to last year.

Speaker 3

So better enrollment rate or member outreach effectiveness obviously won't it will influence quarter to quarter sequentially and may show up with some differences there. And as mentioned a little bit earlier, we continue to optimize there, and we continue to see some improvement year over year as we did in '24 compared to 2023. The second thing to think about that you brought up in terms of GLP-1s, you know, this space is still relatively new to everybody. It's dynamic, it's unsettled, and we need to continue to monitor exactly what the annual flow will be for GLP-one numbers. But one of the things that we do need to watch carefully is that the GLP-one prescription volume continues to grow across the weight health category as physicians continue to prescribe.

Speaker 3

And so, as physicians continue to prescribe and as our utilization and support for our GLP-one companion program continues to grow, we're going to have to watch how that changes number of volumes sequentially from quarter to quarter.

Speaker 1

All right. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question coming from the line of Ryan MacDonald with Needham and Company. Your line is now open.

Speaker 9

Hi. Thanks for taking my questions. Congrats on a great first quarter out. I understand you're obviously not quantifying sort of GLP-one CareTrack success, but maybe qualitatively, if you look at sort of the buckets or sources of where you might be getting the member ads from, can you talk about what you're seeing in terms of the magnitude of success with EncircleRx program versus sort of the broader GLP-one CareTrack adoption in terms of member ads? Thanks.

Speaker 3

Yeah. Hi, Ryan. Whaley here. Yeah, sir. Sure.

Speaker 3

I mean, of course, we're proud to be a partner for the EncircleRx program, which is part of the ESI EverNorth business there. We work very, very closely with them. They work closely with us, and we have a pretty good large scale go to market there. And certainly that is a part of the increasing growth attribution of GLP-one CareTrack numbers to our total overall membership growth. In terms types of business, we continue to sell through our GLP-one CareTrack.

Speaker 3

Most recently, of course, we launched, you know, with CVS, the largest PBM in the entire marketplace here in The United States, not only our GLP-one Track, but also our other programs. And we continue to closely partner with their sales teams to build pipe. We don't anticipate significant volume this year from that relationship because the enterprise motion takes a little bit while, but we do anticipate contribution across the portfolio, including GLP-1s, more so to hit next year. So that's what I would say in terms of GLP-one CareTrack membership progression. You know, it is also important to note that, you know, even clients that don't have the GLP-one CareTrack doesn't preclude members who decide to come into our program, either with diabetes or hypertension or with weight health that might be on a GLP-one.

Speaker 3

And so we certainly support those members in kind, although not with the enhanced GLP-one care services that are associated with CareTrack.

Speaker 2

And Ryan, building upon Weidli, just a couple of observations on the end market for GLP. So, we find that there are really two customer types. There is an employer who covers GLP-1s for their population. They may have interest in Omada's GLP-one CareTrack. Equally, our contracts with both CVS Caremark and Evernorth allow them to deploy our broader solution.

Speaker 2

So, it's quite often that they look at the CareTrack and think, know what, it makes a lot of sense to just deploy Omada's prevention and weight health more broadly or other solutions, given that they know that a minority of their population that has cardiometabolic challenges and wants to lose weight may be on a GLP-one. So, that's customer type A. It really lifts all boats. Equally, there's customer type B, which are employers who just are not in a financial position to be able to cover GLP-1s for obesity. That's also a conversation we can have because those HR leaders are getting emails from their employees saying, How come GLP-1s are not on our benefits design?

Speaker 2

And it's a nice thing for them

Speaker 3

to be able to say, look. Look.

Speaker 2

At this point, we can't afford GLP ones, but

Speaker 3

we'd

Speaker 2

like you to to meet Omada. So there's really two buyer personas there. In many ways GLP-one has become a tailwind for the broader business writ large, is just a dynamic I wanted to make sure to punctuate.

Speaker 9

Yeah. Super helpful color there and appreciate all of that. And as we think about the selling season, we're still obviously early in that. But we hear a bit of crosswinds in terms of, obviously heavy demand at looking at potential GLP-one companion solutions because of the heavy costs and how that's driving up healthcare costs, but then also a lot of uncertainty around decision making because of the tariff situation, the macro. How is that playing out or shaking out in terms of the conversations that you're having?

Speaker 9

Are you seeing any signs at all in terms of delayed decision making or is it too early to tell? Thanks.

Speaker 3

Year to date, we're not seeing really any influence or material difference in pipe development, pipe movements. As you've noted, we're clearly early in the season. And just like every year as we approach the closing and selling season, we'll watch things very, very closely in terms of how things accelerate through the pipeline. But here to date, we've not seen any particular influence in terms of customers churning or slowing down their decision making or being interested in a portfolio of programs that we have. Again, we'll be watching, of course, this very, very closely over the second half of the year.

Speaker 2

Yeah, and I mean chronic disease is very topical right now. I mean, you've got obviously the administration's focus on chronic disease. You've got GLP-1s. It's creating a nice spotlight on just metabolic care generally, and I think that's reflected in what we see in the pipeline.

Speaker 9

Appreciate the color. Congrats again.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question coming from the line of Gene Van Heimer with Freedom Capital Markets. Your line is now open.

Speaker 10

Thanks. Good afternoon and congrats on the IPO and the great results. I just want to really two part question just building on the last Understanding that you're seeing nice growth in the GLP-one track, how would you intend to kind of maintain your edge there in weight management, given that competitors that do offer GLP-one treatments are beginning to integrate GLP-one support in their programs? And then the second question is really more on narrowing losses, which have been impressive, even as you incur public company costs and you scale your investments. What level of revenue you think the company can achieve positive operating margins?

Speaker 10

Thanks.

Speaker 3

Yeah, hi, Jean. Thank you. This is Weili. Appreciate the question. I'll tackle the one regarding GLP, then Steve, I'll hand it over to you to talk about the second question.

Speaker 3

It's a good question. We've often said and even have said on this call that the GLP-one marketplace is dynamic. It's unsettled. It has not reached a steady state, and that would be certainly the case for enterprise buyers looking for solutions. We think the antidote for that is continued innovation.

Speaker 3

And as Steve had indicated earlier in some of his other comments that we have the investments or continuing investments in our GLP-one space even slated for the back half of this year. One of the things that I think is important to note and think is important to reinforce is that one of the key aspects we believe that our purchasers, our buyers, our clients care about is around results. Do people engage in your program and the Omada GLP-one CareTrack? I think our results would show and indicate that they do. At various points in time, several months out, eighty to ninety percent of people are still persistent on their GLP-one compared to probably 30 percentage points less than that in the wild.

Speaker 3

And we attribute that potentially to the support that they receive from their coach, the dynamic and engaging nature of our application, and ongoing support that they get across the entire journey from the point that they start on their GLP-one and to the point that potentially if a member decides to stop their GLP-one, at that point and then well beyond. The second part of it, of course, are the outcomes. As we all know, buyers are trying to make decisions about whether or not they cover and reimburse GLP-1s because of the cost. And for those that have decided, they're still worried about the cost. And, you know, certainly the price tag is something that they're worried about, the total impact of that price tag times the number of potential people they're worried about that impact, but they're increasingly concerned about potential waste.

Speaker 3

And so what do I mean by that? And so what I mean by that is that, you know, as many as one third to two thirds of people by at the end of the year that aren't GLP ones will decide to come off their GLP one. They don't wanna be on it for a lifetime. And we know from the data that the overwhelming majority of people gain two thirds, maybe even more than two thirds of their weight back once they stop their GLP-one. And so they're really looking for not only a companion program while you're on a GLP-one, but one after a program after your GLP-one that reduces weight gain.

Speaker 3

And we've shown compelling data to suggest at sixteen weeks that you actually don't experience any weight regain on average, and in fact, a minus 0.1% decrease in actual weight. And so that becomes an important dialogue. We are going to continue to follow members beyond the sixteen weeks. We're going to go out six months, nine months, twelve months, and we look forward to sharing that data when it becomes available. So that's an important part of doubling down on the data to make sure that everybody understands the effectiveness of our programs.

Speaker 3

As far as other investments, nothing to share today, but when the time comes, we'd be more than happy to do that.

Speaker 4

Gene, regarding the second part of your question, obviously we're very happy with the quarterly progression here, growing 49%. A large majority of that top line performance dropped directly to the bottom line. And we continue to see operating leverage in three main areas. The first and probably most important is our care delivery platform. This is the tooling and the platform that our care teams use every day to serve our members.

Speaker 4

We've been investing in the care delivery platform for the better part of our decade, tens of millions of dollars. And as we've needed to add new features and new product features, we haven't needed to deploy a ton of incremental investment to spin those up. We launched our GLP One CareTrack on our existing tech stack in just a couple of months. The next part is we're feeling a tremendous amount of operating leverage across our sales force. Prior to 2019, we were in market with our prevention and weight health product.

Speaker 4

Now we're in market with diabetes, with hypertension, with MSK, and now with our GLP-one product offering. So our sales force has become more efficient because they can now sell across a suite of products. And then lastly is our marketing outreach. Last year, we sent just over 100,000,000 emails across 5,000 different campaigns across our 2,000 customers. That's the primary medium that we get folks in the doors through email marketing, and it's a very cost effective channel for us.

Speaker 4

As we think about continuing to grow, we're not gonna need to invest disproportionately in that team to scale with the demand that we're seeing on the other end of it. I don't wanna cite a specific level of revenue at this time as to when we're gonna be breakeven exactly. We're going to continue to look at the back half of this year and determine where we can make strategic investments to continue to grow. But we do think Q2 was a great barometer, narrowing our adjusted EBITDA loss to just $200,000 on a 61,000,000 quarter. Thank you.

Speaker 10

Great color. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. And I'm showing there are no further questions in the Q and A queue at this time. Ladies and gentlemen, that does conclude our conference for today. Thank you all for your participation and you may now disconnect.
