With five more months remaining in 2026, the Company expects to continue expanding its Pipeline Revenue through new product launches and new system enhancement.   Supported by its growing base of Contracted Revenue, increasing forward revenue visibility, and continued pipeline development, the Company is reaffirming its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $45 million to $50 million.

CEO Commentary

Tim Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Health In Tech, commented, “We continued to execute against our long-term growth strategy during the quarter by investing in sales, marketing, and key talent, supported in part by the capital raised through our recent PIPE financing. These investments are designed to expand our distribution network, accelerate product innovation, and strengthen our execution capabilities. Our contracted book of business continued to grow, providing greater visibility into future revenue. We believe Contracted Revenue and Pipeline Revenue are meaningful operating metrics that complement our GAAP financial results by illustrating the strength of our sales pipeline, the pace of customer conversion, and our expected revenue trajectory.”

Mr. Johnson continued, “We also made meaningful progress on several strategic initiatives that we believe position the Company for its next phase of growth. During the quarter, we contractually secured our first employer group for the Three-Year Rate Stabilization Program, a differentiated solution designed to provide employers with greater predictability in stop-loss pricing over a multi-year period. This represents an important milestone as we advance toward the program’s anticipated launch in the capital markets. In parallel, we are engaged with several high-profile governmental organizations that are evaluating participation in the program, and we expect to provide additional updates in the coming months.

As we execute on our strategic roadmap, we remain on track to launch HitRix, our next-generation marketplace platform, in the second half of 2026. While our current eDIYBS platform has transformed AI-enabled underwriting through bindable stop-loss quoting and customized plan design, HitRix expands the application of AI across the entire self-funded stop-loss insurance ecosystem. The platform leverages advanced AI-powered document intelligence to automate data extraction across multiple document types, enable intelligent plan comparisons, and facilitate an integrated competitive bidding process within a unified digital marketplace. By connecting a broad network of brokers, carriers, TPAs, and employer groups, HitRix is designed to increase market transparency, expand access to competitive stop-loss solutions, streamline the placement process, and deliver better outcomes for all participants across the self-funded insurance value chain.”

End Notes

1. Contracted Revenue represents the total revenue expected to be generated over the contractual term of self-funded health plan policies placed through the Company’s platform. Standard self-funded plan policies generally have a contractual term of 12 months, while the Company’s Three-Year Rate Stabilization Program is designed with a 36-month contractual term. Revenue is recognized under U.S. GAAP on a straight-line basis over the policy term, beginning on the policy’s effective date. Accordingly, Contracted Revenue represents revenue that has been contractually secured but has not yet been fully recognized under U.S. GAAP, providing an indication of future revenue expected from existing contracts.
2. Pipeline Revenue represents revenue from self-funded plan policies that are being quoted, are in binding status, or have been contracted subsequent to the end of the reporting period. This metric reflects the entire contractual term of the underlying policies, some of which may not ultimately convert to revenue.
3. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Additional information and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the “Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Common Stockholders to Adjusted EBITDA” section of this release.
4. Platform Placed Plan Value (“PPPV”) represents the aggregate contractual value of self-funded health plans with stop-loss insurance (self-funded stop-loss plans) placed through the Company’s platform during the fiscal year through the applicable fiscal quarter end, measured over each plan’s full contractual term of typically 12 or 36 months from the plan’s effective date. PPPV reflects the total economic value flowing through the platform, including premium, claim funding, and administrative fees, and is a measure of platform transaction volume rather than an indication of the Company’s own revenue or take rate.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global K-beauty derma skincare brand COSRX is bringing Peptide science to life at Olive Young Festa LA 2026 through the COSRX Peptide Signal Station, an interactive skincare experience taking place August 14–16 at the Los Angeles Convention Center’s South Hall.

Olive Young Festa LA 2026 marks the first U.S. edition of Olive Young’s signature experiential beauty festival. Held within the KCON LA 2026 Festival Grounds under the theme “The K-Beauty Playground Festival,” the event will transform approximately 50,000 square feet of the Los Angeles Convention Center into an immersive K-beauty destination inspired by four of Seoul’s most recognizable neighborhoods: Myeongdong, Hongdae, Gangnam and Seongsu.

Approximately 30,000 visitors are expected to attend the three-day festival and explore products, skincare services and interactive content from 55 participating K-beauty and lifestyle brands.

Located within the Festa’s ‘Seongsu’ Zone, the COSRX Peptide Signal Station will invite visitors to explore how Peptides function as signaling ingredients in skincare through personalized skin analysis, an interactive game and hands-on missions. Known for making ingredient-led derma skincare approachable, COSRX will give visitors a hands-on way to explore Peptide science and see how Peptide products can fit into an everyday skincare routine.

Enter the COSRX Peptide Signal Station

Presented in a glowing pink environment inspired by COSRX’s TikTok-viral The Peptide Collagen Hydrogel Eye Patch, The 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum and The Peptide Collagen Lifting Glow Hydrogel Mask, the COSRX booth will turn Peptide science into an immersive experience through visual storytelling, interactive play and hands-on discovery.

At the heart of the experience is a simple question: What do Peptides actually do in skincare? Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the fundamental components that make up proteins such as collagen and elastin in the skin. While Peptides have become one of skincare’s most talked-about ingredients, different types of Peptides can serve different roles. Some function as signaling molecules, communicating with skin cells and supporting processes associated with maintaining the skin’s appearance and condition. COSRX makes this complex science easier to understand by connecting Peptide signaling with familiar skincare needs.

Visitors can explore the concept through two hands-on activities:

• Check Your Skin Signal: A skin analyzer measures oil and moisture levels to provide a snapshot of each visitor’s current skin condition.
• Play the Peptide Signal Game: An interactive game demonstrates how Peptide signaling relates to different skincare concerns.

Visitors who complete the experience can receive The Peptide Collagen Hydrogel Eye Patch and The Peptide Collagen Lifting Glow Hydrogel Mask, while daily supplies last.

According to a COSRX spokesperson “COSRX is incredibly excited to be joining this event and sharing our ‘Friendly Derma’ philosophy with consumers. We believe that skincare science should be approachable and easy to understand. While Peptides may sound complex, the COSRX Peptide Signal Station transforms the ingredient into an interactive and enjoyable experience, helping visitors discover skincare science in a more accessible way.”

COSRX will also be featured in the festival’s limited-edition goodie bag. Visitors who collect stamps from at least seven participating booths can receive approximately $110 worth of full-size K-beauty products, including COSRX’s The 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum, while daily supplies last.

Meet the COSRX Peptide Lineup

At the center of the experience is a three-product lineup showing how Peptides can be incorporated across different steps of a skincare routine.

• The 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum is a lightweight, toner-like booster formulated with six Peptides to prepare the skin for the next steps of a routine. Designed as a multi-concern first-step serum, it supports hydration and helps improve the appearance of radiance, skin texture, visible pores and elasticity without adding heaviness.
• The Peptide Collagen Hydrogel Eye Patch combines four Peptides and collagen with caffeine, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. The pink hydrogel patches provide targeted care for the appearance of under-eye puffiness, fine lines and dullness in as little as 10 minutes.
• The Peptide Collagen Lifting Glow Hydrogel Mask is formulated with six Peptides and low-molecular-weight collagen. As the hydrogel mask adheres to the skin, it gradually becomes transparent, helping leave the complexion looking firmer, smoother and more radiant.

All three featured products are also available through the Olive Young Global online and offline stores, allowing consumers to recreate the featured COSRX Peptide routine beyond the festival.
