Non-GAAP operating margins for Q1 2019 were 30% while non-GAAP operating income was $42.8 million in the quarter.

Operating Cash: Cash generated from operations rose $13.0 million or 51% in Q1 2019 to $38.5 million compared to $25.5 million in Q1 2018. Q1 2019 cash flows were strong in spite of cumulative cash payments

Exhibit 99.1

of $13.7 million for bank interest and income tax, including non-recurring advance Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) payments in India.

Net Income and EPS: Q1 2019 GAAP net income decreased 2% to $25.7 million compared to $26.2 million in Q1 2018, principally due to a $20.5 million Derivative Case Legal Settlement and other related legal fees, reported in non-operating expenses. Q1 2019 GAAP diluted earnings per share rose 1% to $0.84 from Q1 2018 of $0.83.

Non-GAAP net income increased 21% to $31.8 million after excluding certain items including the one-time earn-out reversal of $15.4 million, one-time legal expenses of $20.4 million and one-time acquisition related expenses of $3.4 million. The non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in Q1 2019 grew 25% to $1.04 as compared to Q1 2018.

Ebix’s weighted average diluted shares outstanding decreased to 30.6 million in Q1 2019 compared to 31.7 million in Q1 2018 and 31.2 million in Q4 2018, reflecting the benefit of share repurchase activity.

Share Repurchases: In Q1 2019, Ebix repurchased 250,000 shares of its outstanding common stock for aggregate cash consideration of $11.0 million. Included in these figures was the repurchase of 200,000 shares in December for a total of $8.8 million that were not settled until January 2019.

Q2 2019 Diluted Share Count: As of today, Ebix expects its diluted share count for Q2 2019 to be approximately 30.7 million.

Dividend: Ebix paid its regular quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share in Q1 2019 for a total cost of $2.3 million.

Ebix Chairman, President and CEO Robin Raina said, “With constant currency revenues of $148 million in the quarter, we are now getting close to an annual run rate of $600 million in revenues. In Q1 2019, we reported sequential revenue growth of 5% and year-over-year growth of 32%. We are pleased that we have done that in spite of year-over-year currency head winds of $5.1 million; our conscious decision of reducing revenues from our comparatively lower margin e-governance business in India from an average quarterly run rate of approximately $6.5 million to less than $100,000 in Q1 2019; and the traditional seasonal reductions in revenues of $4 million in the Health and CME areas, as compared to Q4 2018. We are especially pleased that we have shown this revenue growth while keeping our operating margins intact.”

Robin said, “We are excited to be reporting the highest operating cash flow quarter ever, of $38.5 million in Q1 2019. To be able to do that, while investing in growing our businesses and for example funding our business to handle $15 billion in gross merchandise value in India alone, is especially pleasing to us. In our viewpoint, it speaks to the fundamental strength of our businesses.

We are excited with the sales pipeline we are building in all our businesses - both in the area of insurance and financial exchanges. In recent times, we have won a number of key deals in the insurance and finance sectors internationally, that can move the needle substantially for us in terms of revenues. We remain focused on getting beyond $800 million in Quarterly Annualized revenues, by Q4 of 2019.”

Sean Donaghy, Ebix CFO said, “Ebix’s $38.5 million of Q1 2019 operating cash flow is a 145% improvement sequentially over Q4 2018, and a 51% improvement over Q1 2018. The Company continues to grow efficiently, consistently producing operating margins of 30% while continuing to show substantial year-over-year revenue growth. During Q1 2019, we spent $10.2 million on dividends, tax payments and principal Bank payments. Specifically, in Q1 2019 we paid taxes and principal bank payments of $7.9 million, invested $90.4 million on acquisitions, paid $4.9 million to reacquire the balance 10% stake in the MTSS business, repurchased Ebix stock worth $11 million, and returned $2.3 million in dividends to shareholders, while we drew only $13.5 million from our Bank credit facilities. In spite of that, Ebix ended the quarter with $96.4 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments.”
