Fourth Quarter Results
“We accomplished the key objective of our year-end transition with a step up in gross profit margin, which we believe positions the company for a significant recovery in profitability this year,” said Paul J. Sarvadi, Insperity chairman and chief executive officer. “As we enter 2026, we plan to continue emphasizing margin and profit recovery while regaining our growth momentum, which we expect will be achieved through HR360 sales and retention initiatives and the roll out of HRScale.”
The average number of worksite employees (“WSEE”) paid per month increased 1% from Q4 2024 to 312,377 WSEEs. Revenues in Q4 2025 increased 3% to $1.7 billion on a 2% increase in revenue per WSEE on higher pricing and the increase in paid WSEEs.
Gross profit decreased 21% to $172 million in Q4 2025 from $218 million in Q4 2024 due primarily to continued elevated benefits costs, partially offset by increased pricing. The elevated benefits costs were driven by inpatient, outpatient, and pharmacy trends, as well as frequency of large claim activity.
Operating expenses decreased 6% to $218 million in Q4 2025 from $233 million in Q4 2024. Operating expenses included $10 million in Q4 2025 and $19 million in Q4 2024 related to our Workday strategic partnership. In addition, we incurred $3 million in Q4 2025 related to accelerated lease costs associated with the consolidation of sales offices.
Reported net loss was $33 million and diluted EPS was $(0.88). Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS were $(13) million and $(0.60), respectively.
“We confronted the profitability challenges in 2025 and have taken significant steps designed to produce margin recovery through pricing and client selection, our new contract and plan design changes with UnitedHealthcare, and operating expense efficiencies,” said James D. Allison, executive vice president of finance, chief financial officer and treasurer. “We plan to continue executing our strategy throughout 2026, furthering our efforts to drive a meaningful increase in adjusted EBITDA.”
Full Year Results
The average number of WSEEs paid per month increased 1% from 2024 to 310,089 WSEEs. Revenues increased by 4% to $6.8 billion on a 3% increase in revenue per WSEE and the increase in paid WSEEs.
Gross profit decreased 14% to $900 million primarily due to unfavorable results in our benefits program, partially offset by increased pricing.


Operating expenses declined 3% to $910 million as compared to 2024. Operating expenses included $48 million for our Workday strategic partnership in 2025.
Reported net loss and diluted EPS were $7 million and $(0.19), respectively. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS were $131 million and $1.03, respectively.
Cash outlays in 2025 included the repurchase of approximately 232,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of $19 million, dividends totaling $90 million, and capital expenditures of $31 million. Adjusted cash at December 31, 2025 totaled $57 million and we had outstanding borrowings of $370 million under our $750 million credit facility.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Insperity, Inc.
Non-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables below.
Non-GAAP MeasureDefinitionBenefit of Non-GAAP Measure
Non-bonus payroll costNon-bonus payroll cost is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of bonus payrolls paid to our WSEEs.Our management refers to non-bonus payroll cost in analyzing, reporting and forecasting our workers’ compensation costs.

Bonus payroll cost varies from period to period, but has no direct impact to our ultimate workers’ compensation costs under the current program.

We include these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to the costs incurred under our current workers’ compensation program.
Adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securitiesExcludes funds associated with:
•  federal and state income tax withholdings,
•  employment taxes,
•  other payroll deductions, and
•  client prepayments.		We believe that the exclusion of the identified items helps us reflect the fundamentals of our underlying business model and analyze results against our expectations, against prior periods, and to plan for future periods by focusing on our underlying operations. We believe that the adjusted results provide relevant and useful information for investors because they allow investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management and improves their ability to understand and assess our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our lenders to assess our leverage and ability to make interest payments.
EBITDARepresents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus:
•  interest expense,
•  income tax expense,
•  depreciation and amortization expense, and
•  amortization of SaaS implementation costs.
Adjusted EBITDARepresents EBITDA plus:
•  non-cash stock-based compensation, and
•  restructuring charge.
Adjusted net incomeRepresents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding:
•  non-cash stock-based compensation, and
•  restructuring charge.
Adjusted EPSRepresents diluted net income per share computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding:
•  non-cash stock-based compensation, and
•  restructuring charge.
