Thank you for joining us today as we present Sharecare's fourth quarter and full year 2022 results. We reported revenues of $123.3 million and $442.4 million, respectively, and adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million and $15.8 million, respectively. In our core enterprise business, we contracted over 900,000 new eligible lives for Sharecare+, our new digital-first advocacy solution, and 1.8 million new members for CareLinx, our home health solution, and ended the year above our target KPI of eligible lives with 12 plus 4 million. In our provider channel, which recently received a best-in-class distinction, we significantly grew our records processed in 2022 to 5.8 million. In August of 2022, we announced our plan to conduct a strategic review of our business and have been working extensively with financial advisors to evaluate all potential options to maximize our shareholder value. The process is ongoing, and we have expanded it to include potential business combinations to complement our thriving enterprise channel, which is on track to grow covered lives from $12.4 million members in 2022 to $12.9 million in 2023. In 2022, we won many new enterprise clients, including large employers, leading health systems, several payers, and government contracts, as well as expanded our Medicare Advantage members, which yielded millions of new covered lives. Due to our investment in sales, we were able to increase the number of RFPs submitted in 2022 by 100%, resulting in an increase in our pipeline, which has grown 150% year-over-year. Our account management is delivering high client retention and renewal rates with existing clients, including one of our largest, CareFirst, the largest not-for-profit health plan in the Mid-Atlantic region, and expanding accounts with new capabilities which increase PMPMs and improve outcomes. One example is Lennar Corporation, one of the nation's leading home builders. It started as a wellness-only client and has strategically added our new product offerings, including digital therapeutics, digital-first advocacy, tech-enabled home care, and the Get Active VR program, creating meaningful results. Since its launch, Sharecare+ has been driving new client and PMPM growth, contracting for over 900,000 covered lives with Coke, Collier, and through our relationship with Carilion, which demonstrates the strength of our digital-first advocacy solution that integrates AI, benefits navigation, clinical engagement, virtual care, and chronic case management. Enhanced with our recently launched CDC-approved digital therapeutic for diabetes prevention, new virtual model of our intensive cardiac rehabilitation program, Ornish Lifestyle Medicine, as well as our Get Active VR program, Sharecare+ represents our innovative, outcomes-driven, mindfulness-based approach to comprehensive health management. On the home care front, CareLinx continued to exceed growth expectations by adding 1.8 million Medicare Advantage lives in fiscal 2022. We expanded our home care offering to deliver tailored care management programs and traditional care to high-risk populations, which result in improved experiences, member acquisition and retention, quality ratings, and cost savings. As we have seamlessly integrated CareLinx into our digital-first advocacy solution, our home care capabilities also are providing a valuable differentiator for Sharecare+. We've identified approximately $16 million in annualized cost savings within our enterprise channel that we believe we can realize through global outsourcing and streamlining our product investments. Contributing to our expectation of nearly doubling our adjusted EBITDA in 2023. These cost savings will be rolled out through Q2 and Q3 of this year, where we expect to realize approximately $12 million of these savings in 2023. These savings will include operating and capitalized expense reductions, which support both EBITDA expansion and our plan to become cash flow positive. Moreover, the strategic review confirmed that our Life Sciences channel, given its expertise in consumer-driven healthcare, is a core and valuable differentiator to our enterprise offering, contributing advanced member targeting capabilities, a 100 million person zero-party database, and an extensive library of award-winning content. In fact, Sharecare was honored with a record-breaking 20 awards in the Fall 2022 Digital Health Awards competition. In 2022, Life Sciences directly contributed $80 million in revenue and supported $258 million in our enterprise revenue. Lastly, the strategic review affirmed the value of our provider channel. The interest we received showed that on a standalone basis, provider attracts valuations equal to more than half of Sharecare's equity value based on our current trading price. Thus, we will continue to evaluate ways to unlock that value while increasing profitability through global outsourcing and growing and retaining clients. We believe that provider channel complements our other offerings, and the use of proceeds remains a key consideration for any potential transaction. The provider segment contributed $104 million in revenue in 2022, and through our previously discussed globalization efforts, we are tracking to deliver $14 million in annualized cost savings, which began in Q1 2023, and we expect to realize approximately $10 million of operating expense reductions within the year. This is in addition to the previously mentioned cost savings of $16 million in enterprise. This in-depth strategic review has affirmed that our unique combination of enterprise assets, life science capabilities, and provider solutions aligns well with the future of value-based care and data interoperability mandates. As we focus on growth, high margins, and maintaining a strong cash balance, we are well positioned as a leading digital health platform. This approach will enable us to deliver increased value for our shareholders while ensuring continued growth and success in the evolving healthcare landscape. While Justin will walk through the specifics of our guidance for Q1 in 2023, I want to emphasize that we have built our projections for the enterprise channel based solely on the business currently under contract. Model growth through the provider and life sciences channel in line with their 2022 growth rates. Our achievements in 2022 are a tribute to our passionate and talented team, and we look forward to building on this momentum in 2023 and beyond. Thank you for your ongoing support and confidence in Sharecare. I will now turn it over to Justin. Thanks, Jeff, and to everyone for joining this morning. As Jeff shared, we delivered strong results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022. I'll share the full year highlights, provide a look at the fourth quarter results, and then outline our outlook for the first quarter and full year 2023. Our full year revenue grew 7% to $442.4 million from $412.8 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA was $15.8 million versus $27 million a year ago. We also ended the year in a strong financial position with $182.5 million in cash on our balance sheet and over $233 million in available cash. Year-over-year growth was impacted by sunsetting Health Security, resulting in a revenue reduction of approximately $37 million and an adjusted EBITDA reduction of approximately $20 million over the prior year period. When normalizing for the previously announced sunsetting of Health Security, our overall year-over-year growth was 18% and adjusted EBITDA growth was over 100%. Our fourth quarter grew 4% to $123.3 million from $118.5 million a year ago. Growth in the quarter was driven by year-over-year increases in eligible lives on the platform and an increased number of records retrieved. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $4.6 million compared to $5.4 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA reflects investments in sales force expansion and infrastructure around our advocacy business. One area to highlight is the infrastructure we support to deliver our advocacy solution for certain large customers fully resides in our cost of sales, which is the reason behind the lower gross margin in the quarter. We believe these investments will drive long-term value to our shareholders and will reduce over time. Similar to our full year results, year-over-year growth for Q4 was also impacted by our decision to discontinue Health Security, which resulted in a revenue reduction of approximately $10 million and over $4 million in adjusted EBITDA over the prior year period. When normalizing for the discontinuation of that offering, our fourth quarter revenue growth was approximately 14% and adjusted EBITDA growth was over 100%. As mentioned in our last call, we will resume providing guidance with respect to our financial projections. We're establishing Q1 estimates for revenue of $111 million-$113 million, and an expected increase of approximately 11% over Q1 fiscal 2022 using the midpoint of the range, and adjusted EBITDA of $1 million-$2 million. As a reminder, this includes the seasonality in our life sciences business, whereby the first quarter is our lowest revenue quarter and ramps as we move through the year. Our full year 2023 revenue guidance is $450 million-$460 million, and adjusted EBITDA is $25 million-$30 million. To unpack that, we have added over 750,000 lives through our Carilion contract. Over the course of this year, we are working with Carilion to deliver Sharecare+ at a lower PMPM, reducing revenue, but providing a higher margin solution by leveraging Sharecare's digital capabilities. Relative to EBITDA guidance, similar to 2022, we expect 80% of our adjusted EBITDA to be generated in the second half of the year. This is a result of the optimization initiatives largely taking effect in Q3 and Q4, as well as seasonality in our life sciences and provider businesses, where we see higher growth in the second half of the year. As we continue to drive efficiency in our business throughout 2023, we expect significant improvement in our adjusted EBITDA margins compared to 2022. Our full year guidance assumptions reflects the following. Increase in eligible lives from 12.4 million to approximately 12.9 million by year-end fiscal 2023, a 4% increase over fiscal 2022. As a reminder, the $12.4 million includes growth in lives from Sharecare+, which we will receive the benefit of a full year of contract delivery in fiscal year 2023. Increase in records retrieved to 6.5 million records, a 12% increase over fiscal 2022. Capital expenditures of approximately $30 million. To close out my comments, we are confident that the 2022 investments in our sales organization and new product innovation will deliver top line growth in 2023 and beyond. At the same time, we will begin to realize the financial benefits of approximately $30 million in annualized cost savings as we progress throughout 2023. As Jeff said, we are grateful for your ongoing support and confidence in Sharecare. Thank you all for joining us today. We'll now open the call to your questions. We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then one on your touch tone phone. If you are using a speaker phone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw from the question queue, please press star then two. The first question is from David Larsen of BTIG. Please go ahead. Hi. Can you talk a little bit about like the 1Q revenue expectations? Why would there be a significant sequential decline from 4Q to 1Q? Can you also talk a little bit about the Carilion deal? Is the PMPM rate for those lives coming in the range that you had expected? Any color around that would be helpful. I guess the revenue guide for 2023 looks a little bit lower than what we were expecting. Can you maybe just talk about that on the enterprise side? Thank you. Yeah, thanks, David. It's Justin. The Q1, if you remember, Q4 is typically a dip in Q1 because in Q4 is our strongest quarter for life sciences. Typically, there's a $8 million-$9 million dip going from Q4 to Q1. That's normal. We've also factored in, as we talked about, none of this has been finalized, but we were fortunate to close the relationship with Carilion. Now what we're doing through the course of this year is working with them to tech enable that business, and, you know, there'll be trade-offs. Ultimately, we think there'll be less revenue, a lower PMPM, but a higher margin business as we go through the year. That's why we factored in a little bit of a dip in the enterprise revenue in Q1 as well. I would just add, I mean, it's a large contract with Carilion, and it's and there's it's the customer base is becoming broader and some customers have less high touch services, so it's less PMPM. As it relates to your question on revenue guidance for the year, we went, we made a decision to only guide to what's booked in enterprise, which is not what we've historically done. We have taken out any new logos that we might add during the year, any upsells, any cross sells and any upside. Yeah, maybe I'll just add one other thing, David, is that just when you look year-over-year, it's quite positive. You know, our guide is 11% higher than where we were in Q1 of 2022. Great. Can you talk about like growth by division, what your expectations are for 2023? I think what I heard was provider lives are expected to be up pretty nicely in 2023. Did I hear 20% or, provider records? Just any color on the growth rates by division would be helpful. Yeah, no, you heard around 12%. The provider, we think will grow similar to last year, which is approximately in the 10% range, 10%-12%. We're guiding, you know, if you remember, life science last year, all the industry had a difficult time. We're looking at the life sciences business as really flat, just a little bit of growth. As Jeff just said, we're guiding on enterprise to what's booked. That is new, you know. We're guiding around 4% growth on the enterprise side. That's taken a very conservative approach, you know. Through the year, as, you know, we've talked about in the past, we typically onboard new customers midyear. There's upsells through the year. Lots of things that happen in the enterprise business, but we're gonna take a conservative approach and only guide to where we're booked today. Okay. On the consumer side, I think the whole industry is facing a slowdown. Ad revenue is under pressure. There's the risk of a recession, belts are tightening across the board. Quite frankly, that's in line with what's going on in the market, and that makes sense to me. On the provider side, looks like very healthy growth. Provider records expected to increase 12% year-over-year in 2023 despite all the pressures that hospitals are under. On the enterprise side, it's what's booked right now, and maybe the PMPM rate on Carelon is coming in a little bit lower than expected for now. Can you talk a little bit about how many more lives there are that you could potentially sell into Elevance and Carelon? I mean, it's great you have 200,000 lives there, it's my understanding that this Yeah kinda just the beginning. Is that right? Yeah. Yeah. We have over 500,000 covered lives at the start. We're out of the gates, we think, really strong with a new offering, and that's across multiple clients. We, we do see growth, you know, coming from that partnership, and we're extremely focused on the execution of, you know, how do we improve the margin? How do we price the PMPMs the right way to the different clients, leaning with a more digital-first approach? You know, just to give you a little color on that, it's 500,000 plus, multiple clients, you know, with different approaches to each client based on the different services that we're offering. We believe that we're just getting started with that partnership. Okay. Then just, one more from me, and I'll hop back in the queue. I think you mentioned that the pipeline is up, did you say like 100% year-over-year, and the number of RFPs are up around 100% year-over-year. Any color on what impact sort of the volatility in the banking sector that we're seeing is having? You know, it seems like the labor market is still very strong but people are a bit worried about the risk of a slowdown. Is that having an impact on the sales process? Just any color there. Yeah Timing for deals? Well- Yep. Yep. I think when you kind of think about our enterprise sales is, you know, one part of our strategy is we have very large clients that we're always working with to expand with. I think Carelon's a great example of that. On the MA side, we have good examples there as well. The second piece of our strategy is we're investing in new salespeople. We have built an unbelievable sales team. They We had a big sales meeting last week. I was with all of them. They're out, you know, bringing the Cokes and the Colliers on, leading with a Sharecare+ pitch and building a big pipeline and giving real confidence to us that our core offering of the digital front door, the digital therapeutics, the advocacy, and the home care, is there's a big demand for that, and it's differentiated as having it all in one place. You complement what I just said there, and you look at our account management. They're doing an amazing job on client renewals. I mean, CareFirst is our second largest client. It's tens of millions of dollars. You know, we are successfully able to renew them for multiyear. Lastly, when I look at, like, a Lennar Homes, it's kind of like what our dream client looks like. It's a land and expand. You know, we started off, it's a huge company, one of the largest home builders. We sell them the digital front door, and we get more onboarding and engagement than they've got in the past. They buy digital therapeutics, then they buy Sharecare+, then they buy CareLinx. That's just a dream sale for us. We're teaching our salespeople how to approach all those deals in a similar way because some of them are complex and take a little bit more time, and some of them are straightforward that we can, you know, come in with a digital front door and land and expand over time. The talent's there, the capability is there, the pipeline's there, and they're converting. We expect a big Q1 this year for next year. We already have some big wins under the tent that we haven't, that, you know, we haven't mentioned on this call. Okay. Then what kind of lift could there potentially be on the enterprise side in terms of you booking deals now? Yeah In 2023 that would impact 2023 that isn't in the guide? Could you book another 200,000 lives, 5%, 10%? Don't you have midyear starts? Isn't that kind of normal? We do. That is all possible. You know, we're taking the approach that, you know, we would like to keep with our guide and that's potential upside, David. Yes, historically, we have brought on new customers like, for example, Carelon in the latter half of last year. We'd like to keep with our conservative guide and those could be upside. Yeah. What I would say the way we think about that internally is Yes, there's a potential for new logos. We've seen that historically in the past, not in the guide. Yes, there's always potential for more upsells within current clients. That's an active conversation account management has every day with our clients, that's not in the guide. You know, one of our strengths is big deals. What we learned last year on Carilion is that we had signed the SOW early in the year with an expected start date. It just took longer. You know, we're tracking on some other large opportunities, but we're being conservative and saying, "Let's think about that for 2024, but let's work on it to make it happen in 2023. Okay. Just one last question, and I'm sorry. From Elevance's point of view, every time I hear them speak, all I hear them talk about is digital first, expanding value-based care, expanding the number of lives in upside and downside risk. You gotta have- Yeah T echnology solutions to be able to deliver that. Has there been any change in that kind of dialogue or viewpoint from their perspective that you're aware of or not? No. No. I mean, I think Sharecare can play a an enablement role in all those types of ideas, and we're involved in many of those conversations and how we can help and participate. Jaffry, who's in the room with us on the call, leads that effort for us. You know, I don't know if you wanna add any color to that. Yeah. No, you said it right, Jeff and David. The opportunity exists on both side of the business from Elevance standpoint, the business for fully insured as well as for capitated risk business. To Jeff's point, we are engaged in some of the conversation on either side, and it does play a big part in what we are doing. Okay, great. I would imagine from Elevance's point of view, in order for them to retain their existing membership and win new enterprise clients, the Sharecare solution is certainly a key consideration that a lot of their prospective clients and existing clients have. All right, thanks very much. I'll hop back in the queue. Okay. Thank you. The next question is from Richard Close of Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead. Thanks for the questions. Justin, can you just clarify, I think you said enterprise is expected to be down from fourth quarter to first quarter. I guess I wanna understand why specifically it would be down. If you guys are generating revenue on a per member, per month basis, why would it go down? That is all around the Carilion discussion. We are taking a conservative approach. Nothing's been finalized, but as, you know, came out in our opening remarks, that's a fantastic partner for us. What we're working on with them is to tech enable that business. As part of that, the conversations include potentially less revenue, but a higher margin business. Nothing's finalized but, you know, in the theme of our guidance for this year, as we wanna be conservative, there's a chance that that PMPM could reduce, we have built that into our forecast. At the end of the day, the number of lives aren't gonna reduce. The momentum with that client hasn't reduced. We've actually added an additional health plan in Q1 with Carilion, and so we see that relationship only expanding. However, there's a large client inside of that relationship that we're working on to tech enable. Yeah. It'll have pressure on the PMPM, but ultimately we believe better gross margin. That's why there is a little bit of pressure in Q1. Just to explain what we mean by tech-enabled, is provide less services, physical services, high-touch services with more digital services. Mm-hmm W hich for that particular client would reduce the PMPM. Yeah. I still don't understand why sequentially your revenue would go down. Was there any one-time revenue in enterprise in the fourth quarter? I mean. It's the revenue- If you have more lives, you got more revenue, right? 'Cause we are taking a conservative approach on that particular client. It hasn't been discounted. It wasn't discounted in Q4, but we believe that, you know, that the likelihood of us, you know, moving in this direction with this particular client is why we're gonna guide that way. Yeah. If you have the same number of lives against a client and the PMPM is higher in Q4 than it is in Q1, that's why it reduced. You're having a price cut. Yeah Essentially. Okay. I just wanna go back- By the way, that, I think, specifically, that's not finalized. Okay Taking a conservative approach there. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. That's fine. you know, I think it was at a conference early in January, you guys talked about life sciences, the selling season, was pretty good. You felt pretty good on the 2023, you know, the selling season at the end of 2022. I'm just curious, you know, is it just being conservative to assume- Yeah Life sciences is flat for 2023? Because it seemed like you guys were pretty positive on the selling season. We are being conservative across all guidance. I think we might have had our largest day ever yesterday in life sciences with our bookings. As, you know, David mentioned, you know, the macro environment issues in life sciences, you know, is real. You know, I did a talk last week in New York at one of the big ad agencies and, you know, that was the topic of the day of kind of like, you know, what's the environment look like and when's the bounce back, you know, gonna occur? Is it this year or not? We have a great team. We're seeing some positive results, as like I mentioned yesterday. We typically have a really great Q4. We thought because we're, you know, we're taking a conservative approach, as we go through the strategic review and other things that this was the holding serve was the right way to think about it for now. Yeah. Just to reiterate some of those comments. When we, when we were coming back strong on those, the calls you're referring to, was it's really kind of first half, you know, that's when the selling season, primarily around the first half of the year. The reason why we wanna be conservative is, as you know, is that about 35% of this business is realized in the fourth quarter. Until we have really solid, view on what Q4 is gonna look like, we think the prudent approach is to be conservative until Q4. Have more visibility throughout the year. Yeah. We'll have more and more visibility on how Q4 is gonna come in. Okay. With respect to Elevance or the old Anthem, I think, you know, back, you know, when you guys originally de-SPAC'd, you talked about there was a 10 million lives opportunity with Elevance in terms of clients they had where, you know, there were multiple, you know, payers, I guess, insurers in those employers. Can you just talk to us a little bit about, like, that 10 million number and, you know, maybe where you guys are with, you know, upselling or cross or penetrating that base? Sure. Yeah. I think, you know, this is, this is an important relationship and it's multifaceted. One part of the relationship is we provide AI services to Anthem and that's going well. Jeffrey leads those efforts for us, but that's an important part of the relationship. Then the second important part of the relationship was, you know, they invested in Sharecare, and we had to show them that we could take those dollars, and we could build a better advocacy solution that's in the market. We think we've done that. Why we think we have done that is Carelon moved 500,000 plus members over to our platform. We're going through that execution right now and that's a ton of work, but we're building confidence, you know, I think with them and us and how we can work well together. The next piece was, you know, how could we bring on a big, important client like Koch Industries and that is one of their clients and be able to have flawless execution with a new product offering. We launched Sharecare+ to Koch in partnership with Anthem that would fall in that national accounts category that you're talking about, and have done really well rolling that out starting in January. That builds confidence. Then we're starting to get better muscle memory on how to include Sharecare into national account RFPs. We're getting better on how to think about things like Deal Desk, where we you know, how do we approach clients, you know, separately or together. We expect that more business is gonna come over. It already has through Carelon from, you know, where we started in Q4. We've already onboarded new big important clients. Justin mentioned one payer. There's others. We think, you know, we think that we're on a good path. Okay. My final question, I'll turn it over. Apologize for asking too many. On CareLinx, I just wanna, you know, better understand the 1.8 million new members that I guess you can target with CareLinx. How does that compare? I think when you bought it in 2021, August of 2021, you said you had about 1 million MA lives in the pool. Not sure, you know. Yeah I f it's apples or oranges, if you could just talk to us a little bit about. Did you generate the $35 million from CareLinx that you expected at the time of the acquisition for 2022? Yeah. No, we've seen explosive growth since we've owned this. I think it was at 80,000? Yeah, it was-. $80 thousand we bought it. Probably $300,000. Yeah, 300,000 MA lives when we bought it. It was 1.8 million ending last year. It'll be more for this year. Mm-hmm. It'll be around two, three. Yes, we exceeded that $35 million number. Okay. Essentially, you went from 300,000 MA lives to 1.8 million at the end of 2022? That's the number? Yeah. It'll be over $2 million this year. Okay. All right. I'll jump back in the queue. Thanks. Thanks. The next question is from Craig Hettenbach of Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead. Yes, thanks. Following up on the lower PMPM at Carelon, can you just talk about does this shape your view of the broader opportunity set? Do you think it's specific to them, or just how you're thinking- Yeah. Bigger picture on the enterprise side and opportunity? What we believe is special about Sharecare+ is it's a digital-first offering. What we mean by that is it's self-service. Anything that I could do with an advocate, I should be able to do directly within the platform myself. That doesn't cost as much, obviously, to execute that type of experience. There's certain clients that will gravitate to that for certain reasons. Maybe they've got the right demographic of the population or maybe there's cost constraints. We have an example within the Carilion partnership where there was some cost constraints, there was the desire to get to digital first. You know, so that particular client, we're moving down the path of the more digital offering with the less high-touch services, which is gonna reduce that particular client's PMPM, but it's also gonna make a higher margin. We also have a big mix of clients that have the combination of both. You get the advocate with the care consult, and you get the digital-first approach. We're taking both of those approaches to market. Sometimes the digital-first works really well, as I said, for people that might not have substantial budgets for these types of things. We like it because it's higher margin, and it's easy to turn on. I mean, I think I've shown it to you in the past. Literally, it's like turning Wi-Fi on, the little blue button shows up, and all the data's there. I see it as an advantage in that we as a go-to-market, that we've got both offerings. Depending on the client, you know, we tailor the offering to fit the need. Got it. Then as a follow-up, Justin, you mentioned just some infrastructure support for enterprise. Can you maybe touch on like an intermediate to longer term basis where you think ultimately gross margin will shake out and what the implications are for that? We're making significant investments, to support largely bringing on 900,000 lives. If you just put that in perspective, that's a massive lift, between Q4 and Q1. We over-invested to make sure that our delivery for those customers was flawless, and it has gone extremely well. We mentioned on the last call that we think that this business can be a mid-30s gross margin business long term. That's what we believe. That's ultimately how we'll model this out. In order to deliver, we had to use outsource partners, which is why it's showing up in the cost of sales line. Over the course of this year, we'll optimize, we'll start to bring more of those resources in-house. You'll see the gross margin begin to expand through the course of this year. Ultimately, our belief is that this is a, you know, 35% plus gross margin business for us as you look to 2024 and beyond. Jaffry, is there anything you'd like to add to that? No, you covered pretty much. Is that specific to enterprise or blended? That's enterprise? No, no. That's just I thought you were referring to the advocacy offering. That's just around the Sharecare+ like what we've been talking about here with Carilion. enterprise as a whole, we believe will be a, you know, back to where we were, which is in the 50%-55% long term. Yeah. Yeah, Justin, you covered all. One thing which I would add is the asset that we have, I mean, accumulated in terms of the analytics and precision on the clinical side that give us an ability on the pricing side of the equation to take more shared savings for our customers. As Jeff said about the example of Lennar, this is where we are going in with a preposition, matching the market, beating the competition, then adding more value to our customers who some of them are spending over $100 million in their employee benefits on the medical side. There are upsides on the shared saving as we bend the cost curve through containment of, I mean, emergency room visit, excessive visit for both chronic and episodic care. That's where the margin improvements will also come apart from what Justin said. Yeah. Just putting it straight, just remember last quarter we were 47%-48%, you know, gross margin. With this large customer and outsourcing, we book all of those resources that support those 900,000 new lives in the cost of sales line. As we bring those in-house, which we are planning throughout the course of this year and obviously into 2024, that will be split, right? It won't all show up in the cost of sales line. We see in the next 12 months returning back to, you know, our normalized enterprise gross margins, which have been running in the, you know, that 50% range. Mm-hmm. Got it. Thanks for that color. Last question for Jeff. You mentioned or alluded to potential business combinations in enterprise. Can you touch on just maybe be it the importance of scale or capabilities? Like, how do you take what some of the momentum you have in enterprise and what could even elevate it further through any potential combinations? Yeah. No, it's a good question. We've learned a lot through this strategic review. You know, if I had to quickly summarize it, I would say that, you know, enterprise is the core, and what makes up the core is the digital front door, the therapeutics, the advocacy, and the home care, similar to, say, what Lennar bought. It's really valuable, and we're building pipeline, and we've got great clients, and we're showing renewals, and we're growing our big accounts. We're excited about that. We're not just looking at the strategic review on what are assets that we could sell and what are those worth, but we're also looking at what could we buy and what would we use the proceeds for if we were to sell something, say, like provider. There's a lot of activity going on right now of business combinations centered around the core of enterprise. The theme I would say that we're focused on is two. one is how to create scale. You know, that's the big theme of Sharecare, is how do we get to scale and how do we contribute meaningful EBITDA? We're looking at potential business combinations that could get us there. The second is, you know, there's also opportunities for logo acquisitions where we think our superior platform could replace other platforms that would drive meaningful EBITDA. Those are, those are kind of two ends of the spectrum as it relates to enterprise that we've been spending a lot of time on and are excited about. The folks that we have conversations with, I think, really appreciate the capabilities that we have and the clients that are there. Then the theme of scale, 'cause I think digital health in general or health tech suffers from scale and sub-scale, and that's something that Sharecare really wants to try to lead the path on, is let's get digital health to scale. Likely through a combination. The next question is from Eric Percher of Nephron Research. Please go ahead. Thank you. Jeff, I also had a question relative to the review and maybe to focus on your comment on provider. It sounds like there was a comment around validating the strategic value, also a comment on the potential value of a sale. Can you remind us what your considerations are? I know there's an element of ongoing access that is key here. What are you looking for to be able to go forward with the sale? Well, one is we wanna maximize price. You know, how do we maximize price? That's one consideration. The second consideration is, you know, how do we maintain data rights? Potentially, if we were to sell it, are there partners to sell it to that could increase the amount of data that we could have access to and maybe potentially together create new products, data products? Then the third consideration is use of proceeds. If I lose that asset and I have that revenue and EBITDA, how do I replace it? Those are the three. We feel like we're getting good validation that we can get a good price. People value what we've built over the last several years, and we believe that there's partners out there that would get creative with us on data rights and data products. Then we're looking at things within enterprise that if we were to buy them, could we use the proceeds of provider to have less dilution or, you know, to make that acquisition happen. That's helpful. Maybe a follow-up there. Have you seen a significant shift in valuations? It does feel like we've seen quite a few digital health transactions announced over the last two months. Does it feel like. Yeah. Sellers are at market? Yeah. You know, I feel like there's definitely, you're starting to see both, you know, obviously first in the public markets, you know, a pullback, and I think now in the private markets. A lot of it depends on what their cash position is. If they're sitting on a good cash position, you know, they don't wanna come off valuations in the first conversation. If there's a need for cash, then that's a different conversation. I definitely think it's a buyer's market. The last question on consumer, I know that was always a business that you were thinking more 2023 or further into 2023. As the macro remains a challenge, what are your thoughts on timing for that asset? It's a really important asset, you know, for us because it, you know, like for example, when you register for Sharecare, the first thing you do is you take the RealAge Test. That's one of the ways we get so many people to onboard. Instead of doing a health risk assessment from your HR department, you come in and you learn your RealAge. We have this really great content that we then deliver you that helps you be better educated to lower your risk. We tie incentives to that, like taking your RealAge and lowering your risk. It's a important component, and it's also very tightly woven into Life Sciences. You know, we have a real unique asset in life sciences and, you know, with cookies going away, this idea of a zero-party database where I've got 100 million people or I know their email and they've filled out 100 questions on RealAge and they've given me permission to talk to them, is a huge asset. Whether we're helping our payer partners recruit members or our hospital partners recruit patients or us using that, their advanced targeting to get more members to enroll in our programs. Through this strategic review, we've had several conversations and know there's buyers of that business. We don't think now is the right time to sell it financially because of where the market's at. At the same time, we're also trying to understand it's not as simple as, say, provider, where just give us the data rights. There's a little bit more complexity here that still needs to be to be thought through. We're also hopeful that it's gonna bounce back. Is like, I mean, if you remember, what was it? 37% growth in 2021. Yeah. 2021, you know, if you remember, Eric, that asset grew 36% organically. The market changed last year and went to essentially flat. We have a great team. We have a great asset. We have great optionality. We got, yeah, great optionality. Hanging on to that asset a little bit longer, we believe, will only increase the value of that business. Would it be wrong to think that when you first announced this, there was a real focus on simplification and what you were just discussing around the core of enterprise? Today I'm hearing a little bit more that you wanna make sure you have ways to redeploy and focus on EBITDA. Is that a change in your view? Sure. I don't think it's a change. I think it's an improvement. You know, we're basically saying that we've done this strategic review and affirmed that, yes, enterprise is the core and we're doing really well there, and we need to double down there. We've affirmed that there's a market for provider and it's easier to detach from Sharecare, and we think we could maintain data rights, which is why we're in the business to start with. As, and then we're getting that more profitable too, because we've started this major, you know, globalization with Jeffrey coming on board and Harsha coming on board our Chief Technology Officer. On life sciences, we've gone down the track to say, yes, there's buyers for that too. It's a little bit more complex to untangle it, but it's not growing right now. We believe so much in the team and the asset, we know it's gonna grow in the future. I can't do everything at once. I have to sequence things. If I had to prioritize what the sequence, it would be get enterprise to scale, find, you know, trade the provider asset to the right partner that not only provides money, but strategic value. Then in life sciences, you know, be in a more of a position of strength by showing growth because we think that the team will achieve the growth. If we're not getting the growth right now, it's more macro issues than capability issue. Great color. Thank you. Sure. The next question is a follow-up from Richard Close of Canaccord. Please go ahead. Yeah, maybe just to follow up on that last set of questions. You know, Jeff, you know, in terms of the sequence that you just mentioned, or from a timeline perspective, you know, should we think about this being essentially a clean story as we roll into 2024? Just maybe some thoughts on the timing of, you know, finalizing. Yeah ... what you're trying to do here with the review. Yeah. -possible, offloading and whatnot. You know, that's a great question. Basically if you think about what our goal is from today is like we wanted to convey the confidence of the topics that we've been talking about of here's where enterprise is, here's where life sciences, here's where provider is. We wanted to convey with confidence that we've got financial advisors and we have active conversations and this is a daily thing that we're working on of figuring out how do we take these puzzle pieces and unlock value in the best way. While that's happening is, you know, there's a huge focus on profitability. We've made big investments in sales, we've made big investments in products, and now we have to realize that cost savings, so, you know, we can improve our EBITDA profile and others. That's happening. We've set a goal to say, "Hey, we're sitting here." You know, we've basically put guidance out that says we're booked. Yes, we believe that there are all kinds of good things are gonna happen throughout the year, like they always do, but this is what we're going with, is what we're booked, and that we're gonna conclude this strategic review as quickly as we can. We're not right now, if you said, "Well, where are you?" I'd say we're almost in the red zone. You know, like, you know, we're almost in the red zone. It will definitely conclude in 2023. We're working to finalize it so that we can give you complete clarity as we make progress throughout the year, but more importantly, into the future. Okay. Thank you. Sure. This concludes our question and answer session, as well as the conference. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
