WageWorks, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: WAGE), a leader in administering Consumer-Directed Benefits (CDBs), which empower employees to save money on taxes while also providing corporate tax savings for employers, today announced the Company's financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
“Both our fourth quarter and record annual results reflect the strength of our position in a growing market. In addition to improving our enrollment rates, we had an excellent new sales year and client renewal period, evidencing the success of our strategic investments in expanding our sales force and broker network, further developing channel partnerships, continuing portfolio purchases and increasing overall awareness of the value CDBs provide. Moreover, we are taking advantage of the opportunities presented by the rise in employer adoption of private exchanges and are excited about the potential impact of the Department of Treasury’s introduction of the carryover provision for Healthcare Flexible Spending Accounts late last year,” said Joe Jackson, Chief Executive Officer of WageWorks.
For the fourth quarter, WageWorks reported total revenue of $55.0 million, compared to $46.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of 18 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company provides non-GAAP financial measure of net income, operating income, adjusted EBITDA and diluted earnings per share. By providing information about both the overall GAAP financial performance and the non-GAAP measures that focus on what management believes to be its ongoing business operations, the Company believes that the additional information enhances investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s business. The Company’s management believes it is useful for itself and investors to review, as applicable, both GAAP information that includes the impact of accretion of redemption premium expense, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangibles, gains from revaluation of warrants, contingent consideration gain and expense and the related tax impact of all of these items on the provision for income taxes, and the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information in order to assess the performance of the Company’s business for planning and forecasting in subsequent periods. The Company’s management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Whenever the Company uses such a non-GAAP financial measure, it provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as detailed above. Investors are also encouraged to review the Company’s GAAP financial statements as reported in its SEC filings.
