Consolidated Revenues
The favorable year-over-year consolidated revenues comparison was primarily driven by the following factors:
•higher per member Medicare premiums and
•individual and group Medicare Advantage membership growth.
These factors were partially offset by the continued decline in the company's group commercial medical and stand-alone PDP membership, as well as a decline in state-based contracts membership as a result of the end of the suspension of state eligibility redetermination efforts previously enacted as part of the Public Health Emergency.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated revenues for the respective periods.
Consolidated Benefit Ratio
The year-over-year increase in the GAAP consolidated ratio primarily reflected higher Medicare Advantage medical cost trends in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23. This was partially offset by the impact of pricing and benefit design of the company's 2024 Medicare Advantage products, which included a reduction in benefits in response to the net impact of the final rate notice and the initial emergence of increased medical cost trends.
Furthermore, the year-over-year comparison continues to reflect a shift in line of business mix, with growth in Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts and other membership, which can carry a higher benefit ratio.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated benefit ratio for the respective periods.
Prior Period Medical Claims Reserve Development (Prior Period Development) | | | | | | | | | | | |
Consolidated Favorable Prior Period Development $ in millions Basis points (bps) | First Quarter |

Decrease to GAAP benefit ratio | (190 bps) |
Prior Period Development from prior years recognized in 2023 (e) | $522 |
Decrease to GAAP benefit ratio | (200 bps) |
Consolidated Operating Cost Ratio
The year-over-year decrease in the GAAP consolidated operating cost ratio from the 2023 quarter primarily related to the following:
•scale efficiencies associated with growth in the company's individual Medicare Advantage membership,
•administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the company's value creation initiatives, and
•lower commission expense for brokers in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23 as a result of the significant individual Medicare Advantage membership growth in 2023.
These factors were partially offset by the impact from charges related to value creation initiatives in 1Q24. These charges were recorded at the corporate level and not allocated to the segments.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated operating cost ratio for the respective periods.
Balance sheet
•Days in claims payable (DCP) of 42.5 days at March 31, 2024 represented an increase of 1.1 days from 41.4 days at December 31, 2023, and an increase of 1.3 days from 41.2 days at March 31, 2023.
The 1.1 day sequential increase was primarily driven by a higher incurred but not reported (IBNR) balance as a result of the Change Healthcare disruption in February 2024, partially offset by seasonality related to net pharmacy expenses.
The 1.3 day year-over-year increase was primarily driven by a higher incurred but not reported (IBNR) balance as a result of the Change Healthcare disruption in February 2024, partially offset by lower reserve requirements in provider-capitation accruals due to lower performance-based payment expectations.
•Humana's debt-to-total capitalization at March 31, 2024 increased 330 basis points to 45.1 percent from 41.8 percent at December 31, 2023 primarily driven by the previously disclosed $2.25 billion issuance of senior notes in March 2024 and a decrease in total capitalization as a result of 1Q24 open market share repurchases, partially offset by 1Q24 net earnings and repayment of commercial paper balances.
Operating cash flows
The year-over-year decline in GAAP operating cash flows primarily reflected the significant impact of the early receipt of the $6.65 billion April 2023 premium payment from CMS in March 2023(b) and lower earnings in 1Q24.
Share repurchases
| | | | | |
| 1Q24 |
Total number of shares repurchased | 1,804,645 |

Effective February 16, 2024, the Board of Directors replaced the previous share authorization of up to $3 billion (of which approximately $824 million remained unused) with a new authorization for repurchases of up to $3 billion of Humana Inc. common shares exclusive of shares repurchased in connection with employee stock plans, expiring as of February 15, 2027.

Insurance Segment Revenues
The year-over-year increase in GAAP segment revenues from the 2023 quarter primarily reflects the following items:
•higher per member Medicare premiums and
•individual and group Medicare Advantage membership growth.
These factors were partially offset by the continued decline in the company's group commercial medical and stand-alone PDP membership, as well as a decline in state-based contracts membership as a result of the end of the suspension of state eligibility redetermination efforts previously enacted as part of the Public Health Emergency.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) Insurance segment revenues for the respective periods.
Insurance Segment Benefit Ratio
The year-over-year increase in the GAAP segment ratio primarily reflected higher Medicare Advantage medical cost trends in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23. This was partially offset by the impact of pricing and benefit design of the company's 2024 Medicare Advantage products, which included a reduction in benefits in response to the net impact of the final rate notice and the initial emergence of increased medical cost trends.
Furthermore, the year-over-year comparison continues to reflect a shift in line of business mix, with growth in Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts and other membership, which can carry a higher benefit ratio.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) Insurance segment benefit ratio for the respective periods.
Insurance Segment Operating Cost Ratio
The year-over-year decrease in the GAAP segment operating cost ratio from the 2023 quarter primarily related to the following:
•scale efficiencies associated with growth in the company's individual Medicare Advantage membership,
•administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the company's value creation initiatives, and
•lower commission expense for brokers in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23 as a result of the significant individual Medicare Advantage membership growth in 2023.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) Insurance segment operating cost ratio for the respective periods.
Humana’s CenterWell Segment
This segment includes pharmacy (excluding the PBM operations), primary care, and home solutions. The segment also includes the impact of non-consolidating minority interest investments related to the company's strategic partnerships with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS) to develop and operate senior-focused, payor-agnostic, primary care centers, as well as the Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs.

Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for further explanation on disclosures for Adjusted
(non-GAAP) financial measures, as well as reconciliation.
CenterWell Segment Revenues
CenterWell segment revenues increased in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23, which was impacted by the following factors:
•greater intersegment revenues associated with the Home Solutions business in 1Q24 as compared to 1Q23 as a result of the expansion of the value-based home care model and
•higher revenues associated with growth in the company's Primary Care business, partially offset by the impact of the v28 risk model revision.
CenterWell Segment Operating Cost Ratio
The year-over-year increase in the segment's operating cost ratio compared to the 2023 quarter primarily resulted from the unfavorable impact of the v28 risk model revision to the company's Primary Care business.
See additional operational metrics for the CenterWell segment on pages S-10 through S-12 of the statistical supplement included in this earnings release.

Footnotes
The company has included financial measures throughout this earnings release that are not in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that these measures, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provide a comprehensive perspective to more accurately compare and analyze the company’s core operating performance over time. Consequently, management uses these non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures as consistent and uniform indicators of the company’s core business operations from period to period, as well as for planning and decision-making purposes and in determination of incentive compensation. Non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. All financial measures in this earnings release are in accordance with GAAP unless otherwise indicated. Please refer to the footnotes for a detailed description of each item adjusted out of GAAP financial measures to arrive at non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures.
(a) For the periods covered in this earnings press release, the following items are excluded from the non-GAAP financial
measures described above, as applicable:
•Amortization associated with identifiable intangibles - Since amortization varies based on the size and timing of acquisition activity, management believes this exclusion provides a more consistent and uniform indicator of performance from period to period. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, EPS, and Insurance and CenterWell segments income from operations. The table below discloses respective period amortization expense for each segment.
| | | | | | | | |
| 1Q24 | 1Q23 |
Insurance segment | $4 | $6 |
CenterWell segment | $12 | $12 |
•Put/call valuation adjustments associated with company’s non-consolidating minority interest investments - These amounts are the result of fair value measurements associated with the company's Primary Care Organization strategic partnership and are unrelated to the company's core business operations. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results and EPS.
•Transaction and integration costs - The transaction and integration costs primarily relate to the acquisition of Kindred at Home in 2021 and the subsequent divestiture of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice in 2022. For 1Q23, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, EPS, and the consolidated operating cost ratio.
•Change in fair market value of publicly-traded equity securities - These gains and losses are a result of market and economic conditions that are unrelated to the company's core business operations. For 1Q23, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, EPS, and consolidated revenues (specifically investment income).
•Impact of exit of employer group commercial medical products business - Prior period segment financial information has been recast to exclude the impact of the exit of the employer group commercial medical products business as announced by Humana on February 23, 2023. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include
consolidated pretax results, EPS, consolidated revenues, consolidated benefit ratio, consolidated operating cost ratio, Insurance segment revenues, Insurance segment benefit ratio, Insurance segment operating cost ratio, and Insurance segment income from operations.
•Value creation initiatives - These charges relate to the company's ongoing initiative to drive additional value for the enterprise through cost saving, productivity initiatives, and value creation from previous investments, and primarily consist of asset impairment and severance charges. For 1Q24, GAAP measures affected in this release include consolidated pretax results, EPS, and the consolidated operating cost ratio.
•Cumulative net tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments - This adjustment represents the cumulative net impact of the corresponding tax benefit or expense related to the aforementioned items excluded from the applicable GAAP measures. For all periods presented in this earnings release, EPS is the sole GAAP measure affected.

(b) Generally, when the first day of a month falls on a weekend or holiday, with the exception of January 1 (New Year's Day), the
company receives its monthly Medicare premium payment from CMS on the last business day of the previous month. On a GAAP
basis, this can result in certain quarterly cash flows from operations including more or less than three monthly payments. Consequently, when this occurs, the company reports Adjusted cash flows from operations to reflect three payments in each quarter to match the related expenses.

Cautionary Statement
This news release includes forward-looking statements regarding Humana within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in investor presentations, press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of one of Humana’s executive officers, the words or phrases like “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “likely will result,” “estimates,” “projects” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among other things, information set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the company’s SEC filings, a summary of which includes but is not limited to the following:
•If Humana does not design and price its products properly and competitively, if the premiums Humana receives are insufficient to cover the cost of healthcare services delivered to its members, if the company is unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better healthcare experience for its members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of its members, or if its estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, Humana’s profitability could be materially adversely affected. Humana estimates the costs of its benefit expense payments, and designs and prices its products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. The company continually reviews estimates of future payments relating to benefit expenses for services incurred in the current and prior periods and makes necessary adjustments to its reserves, including premium deficiency reserves, where appropriate. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, Humana's reserves may be insufficient.
•If Humana fails to effectively implement its operational and strategic initiatives, including its Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of the company's revenues in these products, state-based contract strategy, the growth of its CenterWell business, and its integrated care delivery model, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected. In addition, there can be no assurances that the company will be successful in maintaining or improving its Star ratings in future years.
•If Humana, or the third-party service providers on which it relies, fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, to strategically maintain existing or implement new information systems, to protect Humana’s proprietary rights to its systems, or to defend against cyber-security attacks, contain such attacks when they occur, or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt the company's operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
•Humana is involved in various legal actions, or disputes that could lead to legal actions (such as, among other things, provider contract disputes and qui tam litigation brought by individuals on behalf of the government), governmental and internal investigations, and routine internal review of business processes any of which, if resolved unfavorably to the company, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in its business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could also increase the company’s cost of doing business.
•As a government contractor, Humana is exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect its business or its willingness or ability to participate in government healthcare programs including, among other things, loss of material government contracts; governmental audits and investigations; potential inadequacy of government determined payment rates; potential restrictions on profitability, including by comparison of profitability of the company’s Medicare Advantage business to non-Medicare Advantage business; or other changes in the governmental programs in which Humana participates. Changes to the risk-adjustment model utilized by CMS to adjust premiums paid to Medicare Advantage plans or retrospective recovery by CMS of previously paid premiums as a result of the final rule related to the risk adjustment data validation audit methodology published by CMS on January 30, 2023 (Final RADV Rule), which Humana believes fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence and violates the Administrative Procedure Act due to its failure to include a "Fee for Service Adjuster" could have a material adverse effect on the company's operating results, financial position and cash flows.
•Humana's business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase the company's cost of doing business and have a material adverse effect on Humana’s results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting the company’s ability to expand into new markets, increasing the company’s medical and operating costs by, among other things, requiring a minimum benefit ratio on insured products, lowering the company’s Medicare payment rates and increasing the company’s expenses associated with a non-deductible health insurance industry fee and other assessments); the company’s financial position (including the company’s ability to maintain the value of its goodwill); and the company’s cash flows.
•Humana’s failure to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
•If Humana fails to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to its members, the company’s business may be adversely affected.
•Humana faces significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to the Company’s success, and its failure to do so could adversely affect the Company’s businesses, operating results and/or future performance.
•Humana’s pharmacy business is highly competitive and subjects it to regulations and supply chain risks in addition to those the company faces with its core health benefits businesses.
•Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect Humana’s financial performance.
•Humana’s ability to obtain funds from certain of its licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.
•Downgrades in Humana’s debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
•Volatility or disruption in the securities and credit markets may significantly and adversely affect the value of our investment portfolio and the investment income that we derive from this portfolio.

Footnotes to Statistical Schedules and Supplementary Information
1Q24 Earnings Release
A.Net losses associated with the company's non-consolidated minority interest investments.
B.Fully-insured dental membership as reported does not include Humana members that have a Medicare Advantage plan that includes an embedded dental benefit.
C.In certain circumstances, the company contracts with providers to accept financial risk for a defined set of Medicare Advantage membership. For these Downside Risk arrangements, the provider is measured against a medical expense ratio target and the company may share savings from reduction to the total cost of care of the defined membership. The result is a high level of engagement on the part of the provider. Under these arrangements, the company may contract with providers to accept partial, full, or global financial risk. In certain instances (capitated shared risk) of these arrangements, the company may choose to prepay these providers a monthly fixed-fee per member to coordinate substantially all of the medical care for their Medicare Advantage members assigned or attributed to their provider panel, including some health benefit administrative functions and claims processing.
D.A Path to Risk provider is one who has a high level of engagement and has contracted with the company to participate in an Upside Only/Shared Savings total cost of care arrangement and/or in one of Humana’s Quality Bonus programs (Model Practice), through which the company rewards the provider for achieving quality and utilization targets. Providers who are contracted in an Upside Only/Shared Savings arrangement may receive a portion of achieved surpluses when the actual cost of the medical services provided to patients assigned or attributed to their panel is less than the agreed upon medical expense targets. These contracts may also include a Downside Risk trigger (future date or membership threshold) which has not yet been met.
E.Per Member per Month (PMPM) shown reflects only Medicaid premiums and average Medicaid membership for the period; includes impact of dual eligible demonstration members.
F.Fully-insured commercial medical premiums also include stop-loss premiums associated with the commercial ASO product; for purposes of the PMPM metric, the commercial ASO stop-loss premiums have been excluded.
G.Specialty per member per month is computed based on reported specialty premiums and average fully-insured specialty membership for the period.
H.The amounts primarily reflect services revenues under the TRICARE East Region contract that generally are contracted on a per-member basis.
I.Computed based on average membership for the period (i.e. monthly ending membership during the period divided by the number of months in the period).
J.De novo refers to all new centers opened or acquired since 2020 under a WCAS joint venture. Wholly-owned refers to all centers outside a WCAS joint venture.
K.Represents Medicare Advantage (MA) risk, MA path to risk, MA value-based, Direct Contracting Entity, and Accountable Care Organization patients.
L.Reflects patient admissions under the Patient Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) payment model.
M.Reflects all patient admissions regardless of reimbursement model. Same store is defined as care centers that have been owned and operated at least the last twelve months and startups that are an expansion of a same store care center.
