&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•*Q1 Third-Party Revenue grew 42% year-over-year to $47 million*

**Austin, TX — May 6, 2026** — Ethos (Nasdaq: LIFE), a leading life insurance technology company on a mission to democratize access to life insurance, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

"Q1 is our seasonally strongest quarter, and this was an exceptional one," said Peter Colis, CEO and Co-Founder of Ethos. "Our results reflect both the velocity of our growth and the discipline of our execution. We are committed to protecting families at scale, and in Q1 we protected more than 88,000 additional families."

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Revenue:** Grew 104% year-over-year to $193.1 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Direct Channel Revenue:** Grew 136% year-over-year to $146.0 million with similar year-over-year unit economics

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Third-Party Channel Revenue:** Grew 42% year-over-year to $47.1 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Net Loss:** $(166.4) million, representing a (86)% margin

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Non-GAAP Net Income:** $29.1 million, representing a 15% margin

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Adjusted EBITDA:** $33.6 million, representing a 17% margin

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Gross Profit:** $189.9 million, representing a 98% gross profit margin

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Contribution Profit:** $58.6 million, a 30% contribution profit margin

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Net Loss per Share:** basic and diluted, was $(3.57) per share

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Non-GAAP Net Income per Share:** diluted was $0.38 per share

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Cash Flow:** $31.2 million net cash provided by operations

**First Quarter 2026 Business Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Families Protected:** Activated 88,373 new policies in Q1, representing 84% year-over-year growth

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Reported Average Revenue per Unit:** $2,185, representing 11% year-over-year growth

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Product Innovation:** Launched two new Whole Life products with Banner Life

**Agent Payments Update**

During Q1, Ethos updated its third-party agent compensation and persistency estimates to reflect both maturing cohort experience and the impact of recent operational improvements. As these cohorts matured and additional observed experience accumulated, Ethos identified that early-stage policy persistency was better than originally projected. Together with the impact of recent operational improvements, these factors resulted in lower agent

------

compensation clawbacks and, therefore, higher agent compensation expense than originally projected for policies activated through the company's Third-Party channel in the second half of 2024 and throughout 2025.

The resulting change in estimate resulted in a one-time, non-cash charge of $16.5 million in Q1.

**Financial Outlook** 

For the second quarter of 2026, Ethos expects the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Total Revenue:** Between **$114.0 million and $118.0 million**, representing a **31% increase** year-over-year at the midpoint

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Adjusted EBITDA:** Between **$20.0 million and $22.0 million**

For the full fiscal year 2026, Ethos expects the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Total Revenue:** Between **$561.0 million and $565.0 million,** representing a **45% increase** year-over-year at the midpoint

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Adjusted EBITDA:** Between **$103.0 million and $107.0 million**

Ethos' financial outlook for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2026 are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially as a result of many factors. Refer to the Forward-Looking Statements safe harbor below for information on the factors that could cause the company's actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA on a forward-looking basis to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is not available without unreasonable efforts due to high variability and complexity and low visibility with respect to certain charges excluded from this non-GAAP measure, including interest expense and interest income and income tax expenses. Ethos expects the variability of these items could have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on its future GAAP financial results.<br>**Conference Call Information**

Ethos will host a conference call for analysts and investors to discuss its earnings results for the first quarter 2026 and outlook for its second fiscal quarter and fiscal year 2026 today at 1:30 p.m. Pacific time (4:30 p.m. Eastern time). A live webcast and accompanying presentation can be accessed through the events section of the Ethos investor relations website at investors.ethos.com. A recorded webcast of the event will also be available on the Ethos Investor Relations website.

**Non-GAAP Financial Information**

Ethos has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). We believe that non-GAAP financial measures, among others, provide important supplemental information to management and investors, help evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our performance, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. For further information regarding these non-GAAP measures, including the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please refer to the financial tables below.

------

***Adjusted EBITDA -*** Ethos defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense and related taxes as set forth in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by revenue for the same period. Ethos uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to assess performance, to inform the preparation of its annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, and to assist its board of directors in monitoring its business and financial performance. Ethos believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors about its business and financial performance, enhance their overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, including by providing consistency and comparability with its past financial performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to measures used by its management in investors' financial and operational decision making. In addition, Ethos believes Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors, securities analysts, and other parties in evaluating companies in its industry as a measure of operational performance.

***Contribution Profit -*** Ethos defines Contribution Profit as gross profit less sales and marketing expense, which includes agent payments and underwriting costs for non-activated policies, plus stock-based compensation and related taxes related to its employees and overhead costs allocated to sales and marketing expenses. Gross profit is defined as revenue less cost of revenue. Cost of revenue primarily consists of underwriting costs associated with activated policies. Overhead costs allocated to sales and marketing expenses include professional fees, technology expenses, and other related costs. Contribution Margin is calculated by dividing Contribution Profit for a period by revenue for the same period.

***Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share, Basic and Diluted*** *-* Ethos defines non-GAAP net income as net income, adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation and related taxes, in order to provide investors and management with greater visibility to the underlying performance of its recurring core business operations. Ethos defines non-GAAP net income per share, basic, as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average shares outstanding. Ethos defines non-GAAP net income per share, diluted, as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average shares outstanding, which includes the dilutive effect of potentially diluted common stock equivalents outstanding during the period, if any.
