--Company Reduces Full-Year 2012 Guidance
--Western Region Operations and Government Contracts Segments Produce Combined Net Earnings of $0.19 Per Diluted Share
Health Net, Inc. (HNT) today announced 2012 second quarter GAAP
net income of $124.6 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, compared with
$58.3 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the second quarter of
2011.
The 2011 and 2012 financial results included in this release and the
attached financial tables reflect the treatment of the company’s
Medicare stand-alone Part D (Medicare PDP) business as discontinued
operations.
The 2012 second quarter GAAP results include:
--
a $119.4 million net gain from the sale of discontinued operations,
representing the company’s Medicare PDP business that was sold to an
affiliate of CVS Caremark Corporation on April 1, 2012;
--
a $6.5 million pretax loss related to the company’s divested
operations and services; and
--
$10.8 million in expenses related to the company’s general and
administrative (G&A) cost reduction efforts.
For the second quarter of 2012, the company’s Western Region Operations
(Western Region) and Government Contracts segments produced combined net
earnings of $15.9 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared with
$71.0 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, for the second quarter of
2011.
Two key factors impacting the performance in the second quarter of 2012
were:
--
higher than expected commercial health care costs primarily arising
from a select number of large group accounts with membership in
full-network products; and
--
higher than expected Medicaid health care costs primarily arising from
the senior and persons with disabilities (SPDs) membership.
The $61.0 million in adverse prior period development in the second
quarter of 2012 includes $48.9 million of adverse prior development
related to the first quarter of 2012. The majority of this adverse prior
period development is attributable to the commercial business.
"We believe that we have identified and are on the path to resolving the
issues in the commercial and Medicaid businesses that impacted our
second quarter performance," said Jay Gellert, Health Net’s chief
executive officer. "We identified specific commercial large group
accounts that contributed to increased health care costs early enough
this year. We are adjusting rates, modifying network configurations, and
taking other actions to achieve substantial commercial improvement in
2013.
"We currently are actively engaged in what we believe are productive
discussions with the state of California’s Department of Health Care
Services (DHCS) on a wide range of issues, including rates for Medi-Cal
and the SPDs," Gellert continued. "Based on our experience to date,
current SPD rates are inadequate. We are hopeful that these discussions
with DHCS will result in a process intended to ensure adequate rates
going forward.
"We are revising our full-year 2012 earnings guidance for the combined
Western Region and Government Contracts segments to a range of $1.00 to
$1.10 per diluted share due to the commercial large group and Medicaid
issues," Gellert added. "This guidance also reflects $20 million to $25
million in incremental G&A costs associated with the implementation of
the dual-eligible demonstration pilots in California."
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Health Net’s total revenues increased 7.1 percent in the second quarter
of 2012 to $2.8 billion from $2.7 billion in the second quarter of 2011.
Health plan services premium revenues increased by approximately 7.2
percent to $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2012 compared with $2.4
billion in the second quarter of 2011.
Health plan services expenses increased 11.1 percent to $2.4 billion in
the second quarter of 2012 compared with $2.1 billion in the second
quarter of 2011.
WESTERN REGION OPERATIONS SEGMENT
Health Plan Membership
Total enrollment in the Western Region at June 30, 2012 was
approximately 2.6 million members, or essentially flat compared with
enrollment at June 30, 2011. Total enrollment in the company’s
California health plans at June 30, 2012 was also flat compared with
enrollment at June 30, 2011.
Western Region commercial enrollment at June 30, 2012 declined 7.4
percent to approximately 1.3 million members from enrollment at June 30,
2011.
"Overall commercial enrollment declined primarily due to competitive
markets," said Jim Woys, Health Net’s chief operating officer. "However,
we are very pleased that membership in our tailored network products
grew by 6.5 percent to more than 450,000 members since June 30, 2011. We
believe these products will continue to perform well and membership will
continue to grow as they provide comprehensive benefits at affordable
prices, positioning them well for the exchanges."
As of June 30, 2012, tailored network products accounted for 35.2
percent of the company’s Western Region commercial enrollment compared
with 30.5 percent at June 30, 2011.
Medicaid enrollment in California at June 30, 2012 was approximately 1.1
million members, an increase of 97,000 members, or 10.1 percent, from
June 30, 2011.
Enrollment in the company’s Medicare Advantage (MA) plans in the Western
Region at June 30, 2012 was 228,000 members, an increase of 11.2 percent
compared with June 30, 2011.
Revenues
Total revenues in the Western Region in the second quarter of 2012 were
approximately $2.7 billion compared with $2.5 billion in the second
quarter of 2011.
Net investment income in the Western Region was $24.7 million in the
second quarter of 2012 compared with $25.1 million in the second quarter
of 2011 and $22.3 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Health Plan Services Expenses
Health plan services expenses in the Western Region were $2.4 billion in
the second quarter of 2012 compared with approximately $2.1 billion in
the second quarter of 2011.
Commercial Premium Yields and Health Care Cost
Trends
In the Western Region, commercial premiums per member per month (PMPM)
increased by 4.6 percent to $373 in the second quarter of 2012 compared
with $357 in the second quarter of 2011.
Commercial health care costs PMPM in the Western Region increased by 8.2
percent to approximately $331 in the second quarter of 2012 compared
with $306 in the second quarter of 2011.
"The 360 basis point negative spread between commercial premium yields
and health care costs PMPM was primarily due to the adverse prior period
development in the second quarter and margin pressure due to emerging
adverse risk selection in the company’s largest commercial accounts,"
Woys said. "We are revising our full-year 2012 guidance on the
commercial spread to negative 350 to 400 basis points due to the adverse
prior period development."
Medical Care Ratios (MCR)
The health plan services MCR in the Western Region was 90.1 percent in
the second quarter of 2012 compared with 86.9 percent in the second
quarter of 2011. The Western Region commercial MCR was 88.7 percent in
the second quarter of 2012 compared with 85.7 percent in the second
quarter of 2011.
The MA MCR in the Western Region was 92.0 percent in the second quarter
of 2012 compared with 90.9 percent in the second quarter of 2011
primarily due to $14.4 million of adverse prior period development in
the second quarter of 2012 related to the first quarter of 2012.
"The MA MCR for the first half of 2012 was 89.9 percent compared with
90.0 percent in the first half of 2011. These results are consistent
with our goal to reduce the MA MCR in 2012 compared with 2011," said
Woys.
The Medicaid MCR was 91.3 percent in the second quarter of 2012 compared
with 85.2 percent in the second quarter of 2011. The increase was due to
higher claims experience in the company’s SPD membership.
G&A Expenses
G&A expense in the Western Region was approximately $218.7 million in
the second quarter of 2012 compared with $197.4 million in the second
quarter of 2011. The G&A expense ratio was 8.3 percent in the second
quarter of 2012 compared with 8.1 percent in the second quarter of 2011.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS SEGMENT
Government Contracts revenues were $176.2 million in the second quarter
of 2012 compared with $171.0 million in the second quarter of 2011.
Government Contracts expenses were $152.7 million in the second quarter
of 2012 compared with $130.8 million in the second quarter of 2011.
Pretax income from the Government Contracts segment declined by $16.7
million in the second quarter of 2012 compared with the second quarter
of 2011. The decline in pretax income was primarily due to legacy
benefits from the company’s previous TRICARE contract that positively
impacted pretax income in the second quarter of 2011.
BALANCE SHEET
Cash and investments as of June 30, 2012 were $2.1 billion compared with
$1.7 billion as of June 30, 2011.
Reserves for claims and other settlements as of June 30, 2012 were $1.0
billion compared with $900.7 million as of June 30, 2011 and $958.1
million as of March 31, 2012.
Days claims payable (DCP) for the second quarter of 2012 was 39.0 days
compared with 38.6 days in the second quarter of 2011 and 37.2 days in
the first quarter of 2012.
On an adjusted(1) basis, DCP in the second quarter of 2012 was
54.3 days compared with 52.0 days in the second quarter of 2011 and 53.0
days in the first quarter of 2012.
The company’s debt-to-total capital ratio was 24.1 percent as of June
30, 2012 compared with 26.4 percent as of March 31, 2012 and 28.2
percent as of June 30, 2011.
CASH FLOW FROM OPERATIONS
Operating cash flow was $119.8 million in the second quarter of 2012.
The company received an extra monthly Medicaid payment of approximately
$102.0 million from the state of California during the second quarter.
"We expect operating cash flow of approximately $10 million for the
full-year 2012. This reflects the loss from discontinued operations.
However, the cash benefit from the gain on sale associated with the sold
Medicare PDP business is reflected in Cash Flow from Investing
Activities," said Joseph Capezza, Health Net’s chief financial officer.
SHARE REPURCHASE
From April 1 through August 1, 2012, Health Net repurchased
approximately 1.8 million shares of its common stock for $44.6 million
at an average price of $24.77 per share. At August 1, 2012,
approximately $355.4 million of authorization under the company’s
existing $400 million share repurchase program remained.
DIVESTED OPERATIONS AND SERVICES SEGMENT
The company’s Divested Operations and Services segment includes items
related to the run-out of the Northeast business and transition-related
revenues and expenses related to the Medicare PDP business that was sold
on April 1, 2012. Health Net continues to administer run-out claims and
provide certain administrative services for the Northeast business
pursuant to claims servicing agreements in place with UnitedHealthcare
and its affiliates.
2012 GUIDANCE
Health Net is reducing its 2012 full-year guidance for GAAP earnings per
diluted share to a range of $1.45 to $1.55, or $1.00 to $1.10 for the
combined Western Region and Government Contracts segments.

Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information
($ in millions)
Set forth below is a reconciliation of adjusted days claims payable
(DCP), a non-GAAP financial measure, to the comparable GAAP
financial measure, DCP. DCP is calculated by dividing the amount of
reserve for claims and other settlements (claims reserve) by health
plan services cost (health plan costs) during the quarter and
multiplying that amount by the number of days in the quarter. In
this press release, management presents an adjusted DCP metric which
subtracts capitation, provider and other claims settlements and
Medicare Advantage-Prescription Drug (MAPD) payables/costs from the
claims reserve and health plan costs. For the second quarter of
2011, adjusted DCP also subtracts reserve for claims and other
settlements related to discontinued operations from the claims
reserve.
Management believes that adjusted DCP provides useful information to
investors because the adjusted DCP calculation excludes from both
claims reserve and health plan costs amounts related to health care
costs for which no or minimal reserves are maintained. In addition,
solely with respect to the second quarter of 2011, adjusted DCP
excludes from claims reserve the reserves relating to discontinued
operations. Therefore, management believes that adjusted DCP may
present a more accurate reflection of DCP than does GAAP DCP, which
includes such amounts. This non-GAAP financial information should be
considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial
information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we
consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating
the adjusted amounts, you should be aware that we have incurred
expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments
in the current presentation and we may incur them again in the
future.
Our presentation of the adjusted amounts should not be construed as
an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual
or nonrecurring items.

(a) Consists of incurred but not reported claims and received but
unprocessed claims and reserves for loss adjustment expenses.
(b) Includes medical claims only. Capitation, pharmacy and other
payments including provider settlements are not included.
(c) This line represents the change in reserves attributable to the
difference between the original estimate of incurred claims for
prior years and the revised estimate. In developing the revised
estimate, there have been no changes in the approach used to
determine the key actuarial assumptions, which are the completion
factor and medical cost trend. Claims liabilities are estimated
under actuarial standards of practice and generally accepted
accounting principles. The majority of the reserve balance held at
each period-end is associated with the most recent months’ incurred
services because these are the services for which the fewest claims
have been paid. The majority of the adjustments to reserves relate
to variables and uncertainties associated with actuarial
assumptions. The degree of uncertainty in the estimates of incurred
claims is greater for the most recent months’ incurred services.
Revised estimates for prior years are determined in each quarter
based on the most recent updates of paid claims for prior years.
(d) Includes amount accrued for litigation and regulatory-related
expenses.
(e) Includes accrued capitation, shared risk settlements, provider
incentives and other reserve items.
