• First quarter 2022 revenue grew over 3.5x year-over-year to $266 million
• Increasing 2022 guidance for revenue to $1.0 billion or greater and updating Adjusted EBITDA guidance
• Adjusted EBITDA Margin of (27)% for the quarter, ahead of previous full-year 2022 guidance of (30)%
• U.S. value-based care members grew by 63% from Q4 2021 to a total of more than 270,000 members

Babylon Holdings Limited (NYSE:BBLN) ("Babylon" or "the Company"), one of the world's fastest growing digital healthcare companies, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.

"Babylon has started 2022 with as much momentum as we finished 2021," said Ali Parsa, CEO and Founder of Babylon. "We have continued our extraordinary growth trajectory while simultaneously delivering the margin improvements that come with scale. The investments we have made in our technology platform are enabling us to deliver exceptional growth and margin improvements quarter after quarter, while maintaining 90%+ 4 and 5-star member ratings and high clinical quality outcomes. Companies don't deliver, people do. I am truly thankful to our team of Babylonians."

Charlie Steel, Chief Financial Officer added, "Babylon continued to deliver strong revenue growth during the first quarter of 2022, primarily because of our efforts establishing presence at scale in the United States during the latter part of 2021. We are excited to raise our revenue guidance to $1 billion or more of revenue in 2022, and have been making great strides towards achieving our margin goals for the year."

First Quarter Financial Results and Operating Metrics Summary

Comparison of the following financial and operating metrics for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021:

• Total revenue was $266.4 million compared to $71.3 million, a year-over-year increase of 274%. This was primarily driven by the growth in value-based care ("VBC") revenue, which increased by 805% year-over-year to $246.6 million in Q1 2022.
• Loss for the period totaled $91.4 million, or a (34)% Loss for the Period Margin, compared to Loss for the period of $10.8 million, or a (15)% Loss for the Period Margin, in the first quarter of 2021. Excluding one-off upfront revenue recognized of $24.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 in connection with a software licensing arrangement, Loss for the Period Margin improved this quarter by 57 percentage points from (91)% in Q1 2021.
• Clinical Care Delivery Expense increased year-over-year, from $11.8 million in Q1 2021 to $23.9 million in Q1 2022, but decreased significantly as a percentage of revenue from 17% to 9% demonstrating operational leverage across our network.
• Adjusted EBITDA totaled $(72.2) million, a (27)% Adjusted EBITDA Margin, compared to $(4.6) million Adjusted EBITDA, or (6)% Adjusted EBITDA Margin, in the first quarter of 2021. Excluding one-off upfront revenue recognized of $24.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 in connection with a software licensing arrangement, Adjusted EBITDA Margin improved this quarter by 50 percentage points from (77)% in Q1 2021.
• At the beginning of 2022, we added over 100,000 new U.S. VBC Members. The breakout of U.S. VBC Members by health insurance program type is shown below:

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non‐IFRS measures. An explanation of non‐IFRS measures, reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable IFRS measure, Loss for the period, and calculations of IFRS Loss for the Period Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have been provided at the end of this press release.

Recent Highlights

• Achieved year-over-year 3.5x growth in revenue and over 4x growth in U.S. VBC Members in the first quarter of 2022. Total revenue for the quarter exceeded $266 million.
• Ramped up to engage members significantly faster in two new U.S. VBC deals which launched in Q4 2021, with weekly high-risk sign up rates 4-5x faster in Georgia and 8-10x faster in Mississippi since launch than our first VBC contracts in Missouri and New York³.
• Added over 100,000 U.S. VBC Members in Q1 via three new VBC contract launches, growing to over 270,000 total U.S. VBC members as of March 31, 2022.
• Managed care for over 440,000 members globally² at the end of the quarter.
• Improved diversification of VBC membership through a more than 2.5x increase in our Medicare population from Q4 2021 driven by our partnership with a Direct Contracting Entity as part of the CMS Direct Contracting Model, where Babylon provides crucial care management services to Medicare beneficiaries in California in a value-based care arrangement.
• By leveraging our new Health Graph data platform, we can now automate the creation of B360 member eligibility profiles allowing us to effectively prioritize our population outreach efforts and inform deep member understanding and proactive care management.
• Closed increased debt funding for $100 million through a sustainability-linked investment from AlbaCore Capital Group which is focused on ESG investing. We received funds at the end of March 2022 giving a cash and cash equivalents balance of $275.0 million at March 31, 2022.

FY 2022 Financial Guidance

For the twelve months ending December 31, 2022, the Company is raising revenue guidance from the previous range of $900 million to $1 billion, to $1.0 billion or greater, based on higher than expected revenue attainment in Q1 2022. This represents a more than 3x increase over 2021 revenue driven predominantly by organic growth, fueled by state expansion in the U.S. with existing clients, as well as members from new clients.

The Company expects to see a continued improvement in Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and is updating guidance of Adjusted EBITDA loss for 2022 from (30)% of revenue to no greater than $(295) million for revenues totaling $1.0 billion. At $1.0 billion of revenue, this represents an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of (29.5)%, a significant improvement from (184)% and (54)% in 2020 and 2021, respectively, and marginally ahead of previous guidance. Babylon continues to evaluate timing to reach profitability on both a cash and Adjusted EBITDA basis, which we are targeting as no later than 2025, with management incentive plans aligned to this goal.

These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Please refer to the Forward-Looking Statements safe harbor below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. We are not able to reconcile either projected 2022 Adjusted EBITDA loss or 2022 Adjusted EBITDA Margin to its most directly comparable IFRS measure as we are not able to forecast IFRS Loss on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect IFRS Loss for the period, including, but not limited to, impairment expense, share-based compensation, foreign exchange gains or losses and gains and losses on sale of subsidiaries. Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict IFRS Loss as the difference between the two measures is variable and may be significant.

Reconciliation of IFRS Loss for the Period to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

and Calculations of IFRS Loss for the Period Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

(In USD thousands, unaudited)

EBITDA is defined as profit (loss) for the period, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, finance costs and income, and tax provision or benefit. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit (loss) for the period, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, finance costs and income, tax provision or benefit, share-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, gain on sale of subsidiary, and foreign exchange gains or losses. Loss for the period is the most directly comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Total revenue for the corresponding period. IFRS Loss for the Period Margin is the most directly comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful metrics for investors to understand and evaluate our operating results and ongoing profitability because it permits investors to evaluate our recurring profitability from our ongoing operating activities.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have certain limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under IFRS. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because some issuers calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin differently or not at all, limiting their usefulness as direct comparative measures.

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from the most directly comparable IFRS measure, Loss for the period, and the calculations of IFRS Loss for the Period Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:
