Excluding these costs, which totaled $0.14 per diluted share due to rounding, the Company’s core commercial business produced earnings of $0.34 per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2006, up 42% compared with net income per diluted share of $0.24 for the second quarter of fiscal 2005.

“We delivered the high end of our established earnings guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2006, primarily due to strong momentum in our core commercial business, the earnings from which increased 42% for the second quarter,” said Leedle. “As a result of this momentum, we achieved two significant growth milestones, as quarterly revenues exceeded $100 million and lives under management rose above two million for the first time. This momentum also substantially drove the increase in our guidance for fiscal 2006 earnings per diluted share to a range of $1.16 to $1.19 from the previous range of $1.10 to $1.14.
“In addition, we continued to progress, as anticipated, in our other initiatives to diversify our revenue streams and expand our addressable market. These initiatives include our participation in two MHS pilots and our early-stage development of international opportunities. We are also gaining momentum in expanding beyond disease management to multi-channel distribution of fully integrated health and care support solutions that address the needs of whole populations.”
Additional highlights of the Company’s performance since the start of the second quarter of fiscal 2006 include:
oStrong Growth Produced in Comparable and Sequential-Quarter Actual Lives Under Management – Healthways completed the second quarter of fiscal 2006 with 2,027,000 actual lives under management, representing growth of 36% from 1,487,000 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and 12% from 1,814,000 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. |
oHigh Employer Demand Continues to Drive Self-Insured Employer Lives Under Management –Self-insured employer lives under management continued to expand significantly, reflecting strong employer demand for health and care support programs to address the increasing costs of healthcare. At the end of the second quarter, self-insured lives under management had increased 66% to 811,000 from 488,000 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and 22% from 666,000 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Healthways had contracts on behalf of its health plan customers with 463 specifically identifiable employers at the end of the second quarter, compared with 320 and 437 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and the first quarter of fiscal 2006, respectively. |
oNew, Expanded or Extended Contracts Support Continuing Momentum of Core Commercial Business – In addition to these new self-insured employer lives, eight new, expanded or extended contracts with health plans since the start of the second quarter support the Company’s growth. Two of these contracts were discussed in the Company’s first-quarter news release: the new three-year disease management agreement with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota to provide heart failure (HF) services for the Medicare Advantage plans offered across Region 19 by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Northern Plains Alliance; and the Company’s expansion of its long-term relationship with CIGNA through the initiation of a program for high risk obesity. |
The six additional contracts illustrate strong and emerging trends that the Company expects will continue to drive the growth of its core commercial business: |
o | Intensified Employer Demand for Health and Care Support –Complementing the strong employer demand evident in the growth in self-insured employer lives under management, Healthways expanded and extended its contract with HealthPlus of Michigan to bring the Company’s Impact Conditions program to approximately 1,800 HealthPlus members through |

a pilot program at General Motors, HealthPlus’ largest corporate customer. The original HealthPlus contract in 2003 for diabetes and HF disease management services and the first contract expansion in 2005 for coronary artery disease (CAD) were implemented in direct response to requests from General Motors. |
o | Health Plans Adopt Outcomes Driven Wellness Solution – Healthways recently announced its first two contracts with health plans, Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Iowa and Mutual of Omaha, to offer myHealthIQTM, a uniquely designed program providing consumer-directed health support services. Reaching beyond traditional disease management and care enhancement programs, myHealthIQ is designed to enable health plans and employers to reach and engage everyone in their covered populations. myHealthIQ interventions are sensitive and specific to each individual’s health risks and needs, motivate behavior change and lead to measurable cost savings. |
o | Two New Health Plan Customers; Medicare Advantage Business Expands –Healthways also recently announced new contracts with two health plans to provide services for both their commercial and Medicare Advantage lines of business. The contracts provide further evidence of the growing interest among health plans in providing proven health and care support programs and solutions to members of all ages irrespective of plan or benefit design. Healthways signed a three-year contract with GlobalHealth, Inc. to deliver asthma and diabetes Care SupportSM solutions to both commercial and Medicare Advantage members. Healthways also signed a five-year contract with Cariten Healthcare to deliver care support programs to its commercial and Medicare Advantage members with diabetes, HF and CAD. The Company’s ability to penetrate the Medicare Advantage market is also illustrated by Healthways’ selection by long-term customer Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, as discussed above, to provide HF services to the Medicare Advantage plans offered by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Northern Plains Alliance. |
o | New Collaboration to Fully Leverage Health and Care Support Opportunity –The Company today announced an expanded and extended contract with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (BCBSMA) that redefines the depth, breadth and scope of collaboration with this health plan customer. Under this five-year strategic relationship, the number of members receiving full services for chronic diseases and impact conditions will be expanded to more than 275,000. Healthways and BCBSMA also will develop and pilot a customized depression disease management program. The entire operations will be supported by a new dedicated care enhancement center. |
oContracting Momentum Rebuilds Backlog of Annualized Revenues –As anticipated, actual lives under management during the second quarter increased significantly as contracts previously reported in backlog were implemented. As a result, the backlog stood at $5.2 million as of February 28, 2006. Contracts signed since the end of the second quarter have added approximately $30 million to the current backlog. |
oEngagement in Maryland/DC MHS Pilot Increases to 81% – The Company exceeded its expectations for 70% engagement of targeted Medicare beneficiaries for diabetes and HF services under its MHS pilot serving approximately 20,000 people in Maryland and the District of Columbia. Validating the Company’s previous experience with, and processes for engaging, over 100,000 Medicare Advantage beneficiaries, Healthways’ engagement success is also attributable to the planning, preparation and support of the MHS pilots by staff at the Centers for |

Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The opt-out and decrement rates continue to be lower than anticipated. The Company’s progress in operating the pilot remains ahead of its plan. |
Although Healthways does not provide detailed information regarding its role as a subcontractor to CIGNA for its MHS pilot serving approximately 20,000 Medicare beneficiaries in Georgia that launched in September, the Company has continued to leverage its experience from the Maryland/DC MHS pilot to enhance its performance in the Georgia MHS pilot as well. |
omyHealthIQ Direct-to-Employer Contracting Expands – In addition to the previously announced myHealthIQ contracts with health plans, the Company continues to expand the number of direct-to-employer myHealthIQ contracts. Since the Company acquired Health IQ Diagnostics, LLC in June 2005, the number of myHealthIQ contracts has increased 143% to over 50. The market’s early reception of myHealthIQ is representative of the potential of Healthways’ ongoing innovative initiatives to develop and implement health and care support programs that go beyond disease management to meaningfully engage whole populations. |
oSignificant Cash Flow from Operations Strengthens Financial Position – The Company’s cash balance of $102 million reflects the strong cash flow from operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 of $27.4 million and cash flow from financing activities of $11.1 million. This cash balance combined with the Company’s untapped credit facility of $250 million supports Healthways’ ability to implement its growth strategies. |
Financial Guidance
Based on the Company’s results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2006, and its outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year, Healthways today raised its established guidance for fiscal 2006. The Company increased its guidance for revenues for fiscal 2006 to a range of $415 million to $435 million from the previous range of $412 million to $432 million, as a result of a $3 million increase in revenues expected to be produced by the MHS pilots. Because of the higher than anticipated participation rates in the MHS pilots, the Company expects fiscal 2006 revenues from these pilots to be in a range of $25 million to $28 million. The Company’s guidance for revenues from its core commercial business remains unchanged at $390 million to $407 million. The Company’s guidance does not include any revenues from international sources for fiscal 2006.
The Company’s guidance for net income per diluted share for fiscal 2006 has been increased to a range of $1.16 to $1.19 from a range of $1.10 to $1.14, which includes the expected impact of the Company’s LTI compensation program of $0.25 per diluted share. Excluding these costs, the Company’s guidance for net income per diluted share for fiscal 2006 has been increased to a range of $1.41 to $1.44 from $1.34 to $1.38.
The Company continues to expect the MHS pilots to be accretive to its earnings per share for fiscal 2006, both for the 12 months comprising fiscal 2006 and cumulatively, including the expenses recorded in the second half of fiscal 2005 associated with preparation and initial operation of the pilots. The Company has increased the accretive impact of the MHS pilots in its guidance for fiscal 2006 earnings per diluted share to a range of $0.11 to $0.12 from the previous range of $0.10 to $0.11, primarily due to the anticipated revenue impact from exceeding the engagement targets for the MHS pilots. In addition, the Company’s earnings guidance for fiscal 2006 includes the expenses of anticipated international initiatives totaling $0.06 per diluted share. The Company has increased the expected contribution to net income per diluted share for fiscal 2006 from its core commercial

business, excluding LTI compensation program costs, to a range of $1.36 to $1.38 for fiscal 2006, up from a range of $1.29 to $1.33.
The Company also today established its guidance for net income per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 in a range of $0.20 to $0.21, including the anticipated impact of $0.06 from the Company’s LTI compensation program. Excluding the LTI costs, the Company’s guidance for third-quarter net income per diluted share is in a range of $0.26 to $0.27. The Company’s third-quarter earnings guidance also includes (i) a $0.07 net cost impact of the MHS pilots; and (ii) a $0.02 expense related to on-going international initiatives. The Company’s core commercial business, excluding long-term incentive program costs, is expected to produce net income per diluted share in a range of $0.35 to $0.36 for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with $0.26 for the third quarter of fiscal 2005. See pages 10-11 for a reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results.

(1) Core commercial EPS excluding long-term incentive compensation program costs is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company excludes EPS attributable to MHS pilots, international initiatives, and long-term incentive compensation program costs from this measure and relies on core commercial EPS excluding long-term incentive compensation program costs because of its comparability to the Company’s historical operations and financial statements. The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operations on the same basis as that used by management. You should not consider core commercial EPS excluding long-term incentive compensation program costs in isolation or as a substitute for EPS determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
(2) EPS attributable to long-term incentive compensation program costs includes costs of equity-based awards expensed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), net of tax, of $2,011,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and cash-based awards, net of tax, of $206,000 issued in lieu of equity-based awards that were historically granted to certain levels of management. These cash-based awards are a result of changes in the design of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program in preparation for adopting SFAS No. 123(R) on September 1, 2005.
(3) Core commercial EPS including long-term incentive compensation program costs is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company excludes EPS attributable to MHS pilots and international initiatives from this measure and relies on core commercial EPS including long-term incentive compensation program costs because of its comparability to the Company’s historical operations. The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results on the same basis as that used by management. You should not consider core commercial EPS including long-term incentive compensation program costs in isolation or as a substitute for EPS determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
(4) EPS attributable to MHS pilots includes revenues and costs associated with the operation of the MHS pilots in Maryland and the District of Columbia and in Georgia.
(5) EPS attributable to international initiatives includes costs to implement the Company’s strategy of establishing a presence in international markets.

(7) Pro forma EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company includes the net pro forma effect of equity-based compensation in this measure and provides pro forma EPS because of its comparability to the Company’s fiscal 2006 operating results and EPS guidance. The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results and guidance on the same basis as that used by management. You should not consider pro forma EPS in isolation or as a substitute for EPS determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
(8) EPS attributable to net pro forma impact of equity-based compensation includes the net effect on earnings per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to equity-based employee compensation during fiscal 2005.
