HealthEquity Reports Year-End Sales Metrics
Custodial Assets top $5 billion, up 37% year-over-year, HSA Members up 28%
Draper, Utah – February 6, 2017 – HealthEquity, Inc. (NASDAQ: HQY) ("HealthEquity" or the "Company"), one of the nation's largest HSA custodians, today announced HSA Member, Custodial Assets and Network Partner growth as of its fiscal year ended January 31, 2017.
The total number of HSAs for which it serves as a non-bank custodian ("HSA Members") as of January 31, 2017 was 2.7 million, an increase of 28%, from 2.1 million as of January 31, 2016. Total Custodial Assets as of January 31, 2017 was $5.0 billion, an increase of 37% from $3.7 billion a year earlier.
Jon Kessler, President and CEO of HealthEquity, commented, “HealthEquity closed fiscal 2017 strongly, experiencing record sales, as measured by both new account openings and Custodial Asset growth. As a result, HSA members grew 28% and Custodial Assets 37% year-over-year, once again outpacing market growth. HealthEquity's success is a direct result of our unique competitive assets: an industry-leading footprint of network partners, proprietary platform, unique healthcare ecosystem and cultural commitment to deliver remarkable 'purple' service to HSA members every hour of every day.”
Mr. Kessler continued, "A record number of HSA members also became investors, responding to HealthEquity's expanded member education, full rollout of its cost-conscious investment lineup, and first-of-its-kind HSA Advisor service. Investing HSA members grew 48% year-over-year. Their efforts to build health savings were rewarded, as Custodial Investments grew an even larger 62%."
HealthEquity also significantly expanded its health plan and large employer network partnerships during fiscal 2017. It had 671 Network Partners as of January 31, 2017, up from 513 a year earlier. "Growth in the number of our network partnerships continues to show our ability to grow and diversify our customer base, as well as the potential for future growth prospects," said Kessler.
Dr. Steve Neeleman, Vice Chairman and Founder of HealthEquity, added, "As Congress and the new Trump Administration contemplate ways to build on the success of HSAs, HealthEquity is well positioned to help millions more working Americans efficiently spend and save for lifetime healthcare."
