HOUSTON, November 03, 2025 --( BUSINESS WIRE )-- Insperity, Inc. (NYSE: NSP), a leading provider of human resources and business performance solutions for America’s best businesses, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. Insperity will be hosting a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss these results, our updated 2025 outlook, and perspectives on expected 2026 key drivers of growth and profitability. We will be posting an accompanying presentation to our investor website at http://ir.insperity.com . Third Quarter Results "We are actively working to position Insperity for sustainable profitability at normal historical levels as we execute on our plan in response to unexpected, elevated healthcare cost trend. We are simultaneously taking assertive actions, including through the new contract with UnitedHealthcare, and will continue to focus on attracting and retaining the right clients at the right price and prudently managing expenses," said Paul J. Sarvadi, Insperity chairman and chief executive officer. "We are also pleased to announce the official rollout of HRScale, our strategic joint development offering with Workday. We believe this offering will position Insperity uniquely within the marketplace and serve as a catalyst for future growth. While we are making progress in the areas we can control, the macro pressures affecting our business remain significant and we recognize there is more work to do to deliver the results we know Insperity can produce." The average number of worksite employees ("WSEE") paid per month increased 1% from Q3 2024 to 312,842 WSEEs. Revenues in Q3 2025 increased 4% to $1.6 billion on a 3% increase in revenue per WSEE on higher pricing and the increase in paid WSEEs. Gross profit decreased 15% to $195 million in Q3 2025 from $229 million in Q3 2024 due primarily to higher-than-expected benefits costs. Higher Q3 2025 healthcare costs were driven by elevated inpatient, outpatient and pharmacy trends and frequency of large claim activity. "We are pleased to announce a multi-year contract extension with UnitedHealthcare which provides significant cost reductions and reduces our pooling level for large claims to $500,000 beginning on January 1, 2026. We expect these changes will provide outstanding value for plan participants and help address the challenging employee benefits cost trend environment," said James D. Allison, executive vice president of finance, chief financial officer and treasurer. "We believe the structure of the agreement improves our financial outlook substantially for 2026 and enhances strategic alignment for growth and profitability in subsequent years." Operating expenses decreased 4% to $220 million in Q3 2025 from $228 million in Q3 2024. Operating expenses included $11 million and $19 million for our Workday strategic partnership in Q3 2025 and Q3 2024, respectively. Reported net loss was $20 million and diluted EPS was $(0.53). Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS were $10 million and $(0.20), respectively. Year-to-Date Results The average number of WSEEs paid per month increased 1% from 2024 to 309,327 WSEEs. Revenues increased by 4% to $5.1 billion on a 3% increase in revenue per WSEE and the increase in paid WSEEs. Gross profit decreased 13% to $728 million primarily due to unfavorable results from our benefits costs program, offset in part by increased pricing and favorability in other direct cost areas. Operating expenses declined 1% to $692 million as compared to the 2024 period. Operating expenses included $38 million for our Workday strategic partnership in YTD 2025. Reported net income and diluted EPS were $26 million and $0.69, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS were $144 million and $1.63, respectively. Cash outlays in the first nine months of 2025 included the repurchase of approximately 225,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of $19 million, dividends totaling $68 million, and capital expenditures of $22 million. Adjusted cash at September 30, 2025 totaled $120 million and we had outstanding borrowings of $370 million under our $650 million credit facility. 2025 Guidance The company also announced its updated guidance for 2025, including the fourth quarter of 2025.
