NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1)

Basis of Presentation

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Healthways, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries reflect all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation. We have reclassified certain items in prior periods to conform to current classifications.

We have omitted certain financial information that is normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP but that is not required for interim reporting purposes. You should read the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

(2)

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”, an amendment to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. These amendments provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that fair value measurements and disclosure requirements are consistent between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU No. 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows, or notes to the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires an entity to present net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU No. 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We have not yet determined which presentation of comprehensive income we will elect but do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, statement of financial position, or cash flows.

(3)

Share-Based Compensation

We have several shareholder-approved stock incentive plans for employees and directors. We currently have three types of share-based awards outstanding under these plans: stock options, restricted stock units, and restricted stock. We believe that such awards align the interests of our employees and directors with those of our stockholders.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized share-based compensation costs of $2.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized share-based compensation costs of $2.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively.

A summary of our stock options as of June 30, 2011 and changes during the six months then ended is presented below:

					Weighted-
					Average
			Weighted-		Remaining	Aggregate
	Shares		Average		Contractual	Intrinsic
Options	(000s)		Exercise Price		Term (years)	Value ($000s)
Outstanding at January 1, 2011	6,208		$	17.12
Granted	368			14.70
Exercised	(332	)		11.06
Forfeited or expired	(172	)		14.93
Outstanding at June 30, 2011	6,072			17.37	5.30	$ 14,598
Exercisable at June 30, 2011	3,576			19.64	3.14	$ 7,407

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $9.03 and $8.32, respectively.

The following table shows a summary of our restricted stock and restricted stock units (“nonvested shares”) as of June 30, 2011 as well as activity during the six months then ended:

			Weighted-
			Average
	Shares		Grant Date
Nonvested Shares	(000s)		Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1, 2011	1,153		$	15.29
Granted	183			14.71
Vested	(180	)		16.44
Forfeited	(62	)		12.83
Nonvested at June 30, 2011	1,094		$	15.18

(4)

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate increased to 43.7% and 43.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 37.8% and 39.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to the favorable impact on the 2010 effective tax rate of an earn-out adjustment recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, as well an increase during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 in the level of certain expenses related to international operations for which we currently are not able to recognize a tax benefit.

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax years remaining subject to examination in these jurisdictions include 2008 to present.

(5)

Derivative Investments and Hedging Activities

We use derivative instruments to manage risks related to interest rates and foreign currencies. We record all derivatives at estimated fair value as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and recognize the unrealized gains and losses in either the balance sheet or statement of operations, depending on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument. As permitted under our master netting arrangements, the fair value amounts of our derivative instruments are presented on a net basis by counterparty in the consolidated balance sheets.

Interest Rate

In order to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on our floating rate debt commitments, we maintain interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $335.0 million ($145.0 million of which will become effective in January 2012 and $30.0 million of which will become effective in January 2013) and termination dates ranging from December 30, 2011 to December 31, 2013. These interest rate swap agreements effectively modify our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our floating rate debt to fixed obligations with interest rates ranging from 0.580% to 3.855%, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Under these agreements, we receive a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR, and we pay a fixed rate of interest. We have designated these interest rate swap agreements as qualifying cash flow hedges. We currently meet the hedge accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP in accounting for these interest rate swap agreements.

Foreign Currency

We enter into foreign currency options and/or forward contracts in order to minimize our earnings exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our foreign currency exchange contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. We routinely monitor our foreign currency exposures to maximize the overall effectiveness of our foreign currency hedge positions. We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading or other purposes.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The estimated gross fair values of derivative instruments at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, excluding the impact of netting derivative assets and liabilities when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists, were as follows:

	June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
(In $000s)	Foreign currency exchange contracts	Interest rate swap agreements	Foreign currency exchange contracts	Interest rate swap agreements
Assets:

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Other current assets	$98	$—	$136	$—
Total assets	$98	$—	$136	$—

Liabilities:
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Accrued liabilities	$263	$—	$245	$—

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Accrued liabilities	—	2,253	—	4,465
Other long-term liabilities	—	3,746	—	2,593
Total liabilities	$263	$5,999	$245	$7,058

See also Note 6.

Cash Flow Hedges

Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded at estimated fair value in the balance sheet, with the effective portion of the gains and losses being reported in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (“accumulated OCI”). Cash flow hedges for all periods presented consist solely of interest rate swap agreements. Gains and losses on these interest rate swap agreements are reclassified to interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings or the period in which all or a portion of the hedge becomes ineffective. As of June 30, 2011, we expect to reclassify $3.9 million of net losses on interest rate swap agreements from accumulated OCI to interest expense within the next 12 months due to the scheduled payment of interest associated with our debt.

Gains and losses representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. The following table shows the effect of our cash flow hedges on the consolidated balance sheet during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010:

$(1,319)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, there were no gains or losses on cash flow hedges recognized in income resulting from hedge ineffectiveness.

Derivative Instruments Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Our foreign currency exchange contracts require current period mark-to-market accounting, with any change in fair value being recorded each period in the consolidated statement of operations in selling, general and administrative expenses. At June 30, 2011, we had forward contracts with notional amounts of $9.7 million to exchange foreign currencies, primarily the Australian dollar and Euro, that were entered into to hedge forecasted foreign net income (loss) and intercompany debt.

These forward contracts did not have a material effect on our consolidated statements of operations during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

(6)

Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, assuming the transaction occurs in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of

these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

	Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
	Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-based valuation techniques in which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
	Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

(In $000s) June 30, 2011		Level 2		Gross Fair Value		Netting (1)			Net Fair Value
Assets:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	$	98	$	98	$	(45	)	$	53
Liabilities:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	$	263	$	263	$	(45	)	$	218
Interest rate swap agreements		5,999		5,999		—			5,999

(In $000s) December 31, 2010		Level 2		Gross Fair Value		Netting (1)			Net Fair Value
Assets:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	$	136	$	136	$	(116	)	$	20
Liabilities:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	$	245	$	245	$	(116	)	$	129
Interest rate swap agreements		7,058		7,058		—			7,058

(1) This column reflects the impact of netting derivative assets and liabilities by counterparty when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists.

The fair values of forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued using broker quotations of similar assets or liabilities in active markets. The fair values of interest rate swap agreements are primarily determined based on the present value of future cash flows using internal models and third-party pricing services with observable inputs, including interest rates, yield curves and applicable credit spreads.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

In addition to foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements, the estimated fair values of which are disclosed above, the estimated fair value of each class of financial instruments at June 30, 2011 was as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents – The carrying amount of $1.0 million approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments (less than three months).

Long-term debt –The estimated fair value of outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement is based on the average of the prices set by the issuing bank given current market conditions and is not necessarily indicative of the amount we could realize in a current market exchange. The estimated fair value and carrying amount of outstanding borrowings under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement (see Note 7) at June 30, 2011 are $214.8 million and $222.6 million, respectively.

(7)

Long-Term Debt

On March 30, 2010, we entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Fourth Amended Credit Agreement”). The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement provides us with a $55.0 million revolving credit facility from March 30, 2010 to December 1, 2011 (the “2011 Revolving Credit Facility”) and a $345.0 million revolving credit facility from March 30, 2010 to December 1, 2013 (the “2013 Revolving Credit Facility”), including a swingline sub facility of $20.0 million and a $75.0 million sub facility for letters of credit. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement also provides a continuation of the term loan facility provided pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, of which $191.0 million remained outstanding on June 30, 2011, and an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $200.0 million. As of June 30, 2011, availability under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility totaled $245.1 million as calculated under the most restrictive covenant.

Revolving advances under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement are drawn first under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility, with any advances in excess of $345.0 million being drawn under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility. Revolving advances under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 1.875% to 2.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.375% to 1.250%. Revolving advances under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 0.875% to 1.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.000% to 0.250%. Term loan borrowings bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus 1.50% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate. See Note 5 for a description of our interest rate swap agreements. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement also provides for a fee ranging between 0.150% and 0.300% of the unused commitments under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility and 0.275% and 0.425% of the unused commitments under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement is secured by guarantees from most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company’s and such subsidiaries’ assets.

We are required to repay outstanding revolving loans on the applicable commitment termination date, which is December 1, 2011 for the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility and December 1, 2013 for the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility. We are required to repay term loans in quarterly principal installments aggregating $0.5 million each, which commenced on March 31, 2007. The entire unpaid principal balance of the term loans is due and payable at maturity on December 1, 2013.

The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants, which require us to maintain, as defined, ratios or levels of 1) total funded debt to EBITDA, 2) fixed charge coverage, and 3) net worth. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement also restricts the payment of dividends and limits the amount of repurchases of the Company’s common stock. As of June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all of the covenant requirements of the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.

As described in Note 5 above, as of June 30, 2011, we are a party to interest rate swap agreements for which we receive a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR and for which we pay a fixed rate of interest.

Restructuring and Related Charges

In November 2010, we began a restructuring of the Company primarily focused on aligning resources with current and emerging markets and consolidating operating capacity, which was largely completed by the end of fiscal 2010. We do not expect to incur significant additional costs or adjustments related to this restructuring. The change in accrued restructuring and related charges during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was as follows:

(In 000s)

Accrued restructuring and related charges at January 1, 2011	$	7,607
Additions		—
Payments		(4,448	)
Adjustments (1)		(734	)
Accrued restructuring and related charges at June 30, 2011	$	2,425

(1) Adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2011 resulted primarily from a favorable adjustment to lease termination costs due to a sublease of certain unused office space.

Commitments and Contingencies

Shareholder Derivative Lawsuits

On June 27, 2008 and July 24, 2008, respectively, two shareholders filed putative derivative actions purportedly on behalf of the Company in the Chancery Court for the State of Tennessee, Twentieth Judicial District, Davidson County, against certain directors and officers of the Company, seeking damages and equitable and/or injunctive relief. These actions are based on allegations of individual violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and allegations that misleading statements were made and material information omitted from public communications regarding (i) the purported loss or restructuring of certain contracts with customers, (ii) the Company’s participation in the Medicare Health Support (“MHS”) pilot program for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and (iii) the Company’s guidance for fiscal year 2008. These lawsuits were consolidated and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on May 9, 2009. On June 19, 2009, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint. The Court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss on October 14, 2009. The plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal on November 12, 2009. The Tennessee Court of Appeals heard argument on the appeal on October 13, 2010 and affirmed the trial court’s dismissal on March 14, 2011.

ERISA Lawsuits

On July 31, 2008, a purported class action alleging violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, Nashville Division against the Company and certain of its directors and officers alleging breaches of fiduciary duties to participants in the Company’s 401(k) plan. An amended complaint was filed on September 29, 2008, naming as defendants the Company, the Board of Directors, certain officers, and members of the Investment Committee charged with administering the 401(k) plan, alleging that the defendants violated ERISA by failing to remove the Company stock fund from the 401(k) plan when it allegedly became an imprudent investment by (i) failing to disclose adequately the risks and results of the MHS pilot program to 401(k) plan participants, (ii) failing to seek independent advice as to whether to continue to permit the 401(k) plan to hold Company stock, and (iii) failing to closely monitor the Investment Committee and other 401(k) plan fiduciaries. On August 6, 2009, the parties filed a stipulation of dismissal. On February 1, 2010, a new named plaintiff filed another putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, Nashville Division, alleging ERISA violations in the administration of the Company’s 401(k) plan. The new complaint was identical to the original complaint, including the allegations and the requests for relief. Defendants’ answer to this complaint was filed on March 22, 2010. On June 23, 2010, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle this matter for $1.3 million. The District Court gave preliminary approval of the settlement on December 1, 2010, and granted final approval following a fairness hearing held April 25, 2011. Due to the Company’s fiduciary liabilities insurance coverage, this settlement did not result in any charge to the Company.

Contract Dispute

We currently are involved in a contractual dispute with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota regarding fees paid to us as part of a former contractual relationship. In 2010, we received a notice of arbitration under the terms of our agreement alleging a violation of certain contract provisions. We believe we performed our services in compliance with the terms of our agreement and that the assertions made in the arbitration notice are without merit. On August 3, 2011, we asserted numerous counterclaims against Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota. We are not able to reasonably estimate a range of potential losses, if any.

Outlook

We are also subject to other contractual disputes, claims and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While we are unable to estimate a range of potential losses, we do not believe that any of the legal proceedings pending against us as of the date of this report will have a material adverse effect on our liquidity or financial condition. As these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, our view of these matters may change in the future.

Contractual Commitment

In May 2011, we entered into a ten-year applications and technology services outsourcing agreement with HP Enterprise Services, LLC (“HP”) that contains minimum fee requirements. Total payments over the ten-year term must equal or exceed a minimum level of approximately $185 million; however, based on initial required service and equipment level assumptions, we estimate that the total payments will be approximately $380 million, $18.0 million of which will occur during the remainder of 2011, $100.9 million of which will occur during 2012 and 2013, $80.8 million of which will occur during 2014 and 2015, and the remaining $180.3 million of which will occur thereafter. The agreement allows us to terminate all or a portion of the services after two years provided we pay certain termination fees which could be material to the Company.

Sale of Investment

In January 2009, a private company in which we held preferred stock was acquired by a third party. As part of this sale, we received two payments totaling $11.6 million in January and February 2009 and recorded a gain of $2.6 million during the first quarter of 2009. During the second quarter of 2010, we recognized a gain of $1.2 million related to the receipt of a final escrow payment.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Founded in 1981, Healthways, Inc. provides specialized, comprehensive solutions to help people improve physical, emotional and social well-being, thereby reducing both direct healthcare costs and associated costs from the loss of employee productivity.

We provide highly specific and personalized interventions for each individual in a population, irrespective of health status, age or payor. Our evidence-based health, prevention and well-being services are made available to consumers via phone, mobile devices, direct mail, the Internet, face-to-face consultations and venue-based interactions.

In North America, our customers include health plans, governments, employers, pharmacy benefit managers, and hospitals in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. We also provide health improvement programs and services in Brazil, Australia and France. We operate domestic and international care enhancement and coaching centers staffed with licensed health professionals. Our fitness center network encompasses approximately 14,000 U.S. locations. We also maintain an extensive network of over 88,000 complementary and alternative medicine and chiropractic practitioners, which offers convenient access to the significant number of individuals who seek health services outside of the traditional healthcare system.

Our guiding philosophy and approach to market is predicated on the fundamental belief that healthier people cost less and are more productive. As described more fully below, our programs are designed to improve well-being by helping people to adopt or maintain healthy behaviors, reduce health-related risk factors, and optimize care for identified health conditions.

First, our programs are designed to help people adopt or maintain healthy behaviors by:

fostering wellness and disease prevention through total population screening, well-being assessments and supportive interventions; and

providing access to health improvement programs, such as fitness solutions, weight management, and complementary and alternative medicine.

Our prevention programs focus on education, physical fitness, health coaching, and behavior change techniques and support. We believe this approach improves the well-being status of member populations and reduces the short- and long-term direct healthcare costs for participants, including associated costs from the loss of employee productivity.

Second, our programs are designed to help people reduce health-related risk factors by:

promoting the change and improvement of the lifestyle behaviors that lead to poor health or chronic conditions; and

providing educational materials and personal interactions with highly trained nurses and other healthcare professionals to create and sustain healthier behaviors for those individuals at-risk or in the early stages of chronic conditions.

We enable our customers to engage everyone in their covered populations through specific interventions that are sensitive to each individual’s health risks and needs. Our programs are designed to motivate people to make positive lifestyle changes and accomplish individual goals, such as increasing physical activity for seniors through the Healthways SilverSneakers® fitness solution or overcoming nicotine addiction through the QuitNet® on-line smoking cessation community.

Finally, our programs are designed to help people optimize care for identified health conditions by:

incorporating the latest, evidence-based clinical guidelines into interventions to optimize patient health outcomes;

developing care support plans and motivating members to set attainable goals for themselves;

providing local market resources to address acute episodic interventions;

coordinating members’ care with their healthcare providers;

providing software licensing and management consulting in support of well-being improvement services; and

providing high-risk care management for members at risk for hospitalization due to complex conditions.

Our approach is to use proprietary, analytic models to identify individuals who are likely to incur future high costs, including those who have specific gaps in care, and through evidence-based interventions drive adherence to proven standards of care, medication regimens and physicians’ plans of care to reduce disease progression and related medical spending.

We recognize that each individual plays a variety of roles in his or her pursuit of health, often simultaneously. By providing the full spectrum of services to meet each individual’s needs, we believe our interventions can be delivered at scale and in a manner that reflects those unique needs over time. We believe creating real and sustainable behavior change generates measurable, long-term cost savings and improved individual and business performance.

the ability of our customers to maintain the number of covered lives enrolled in the plans during the terms of our agreements;

the impact of legal proceedings involving us and/or our subsidiaries;

the impact of future state, federal, and international legislation and regulations applicable to our business, including PPACA, on our ability to deliver our services and on the financial health of our customers and their willingness to purchase our services;

current geopolitical turmoil, the continuing threat of domestic or international terrorism, and the potential emergence of a health pandemic; and

other risks detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We undertake no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements.

Customer Contracts

Contract Terms

We generally determine our contract fees by multiplying a contractually negotiated rate per member per month (“PMPM”) by the number of members covered by our services during the month. We typically set the PMPM rates during contract negotiations with customers based on the value we expect our programs to create and a sharing of that value between the customer and the Company. In addition, some of our services, such as the Healthways SilverSneakers fitness solution, include fees that are based upon member participation.

Our contracts with health plans generally range from three to five years with provisions for subsequent renewal; contracts with self-insured employers, either directly or through their health plans or pharmacy benefit manager, typically have one to three-year terms. Some of our contracts allow the customer to terminate early.

Some of our contracts provide that a portion of our fees may be refundable to the customer (“performance-based”) if our programs do not achieve, when compared to a baseline year, a targeted percentage reduction in the customer’s healthcare costs and selected clinical and/or other criteria that focus on improving the health of the members. Approximately 3% of revenues recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were performance-based and were subject to final reconciliation as of June 30, 2011. We anticipate that this percentage will fluctuate due to the level of performance-based fees in new contracts and the timing and amount of revenue recognition associated with performance-based fees. Some contracts also provide for additional fees for incentive bonuses in excess of the contractual PMPM rate if we meet or exceed contractual performance targets.

Contract Revenues

Our contract revenues depend on the contractual terms we establish and maintain with customers to provide our services to their members. Restructurings of contracts and possible terminations at, or prior to, renewal could have a material negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Approximately 17% and 18% of our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, were derived from one customer. No other customer accounted for 10% or more of our revenues during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011.

Technology

Our solutions require sophisticated analytical, data management, Internet and computer-telephony solutions based on state-of-the-art technology. These solutions help us deliver our services to large populations within our customer base. Our predictive modeling capabilities allow us to identify and stratify those participants who are most at risk for an adverse health event. We incorporate behavior-change science with consumer-friendly interactions such as face-to-face, telephonic, print materials and web portals to facilitate consumer preferences for engagement and convenience. We use sophisticated data analytical and reporting solutions to validate the impact of our programs on clinical and financial outcomes. We continue to invest heavily in technology, as evidenced by our long-term applications and technology services outsourcing agreement with HP, and are continually expanding and

improving our proprietary clinical, data management, and reporting systems to continue to meet the information management requirements of our services. The behavior change techniques and predictive modeling incorporated in our technology identify an individual’s readiness to change and provide personalized support through appropriate messaging using any method desired, including venue-based face-to-face; print; phone; mobile and remote devices; on-line; emerging modalities; and any combination thereof to motivate and sustain healthy behaviors.

Business Strategy

The World Health Organization defines health as “…not only the absence of infirmity and disease, but also a state of physical, mental, and social well-being.”

Our business strategy reflects our passion to enhance health and well-being, and as a result, reduce overall healthcare costs and improve workforce engagement, yielding better business performance for our customers. Our programs are designed to improve well-being by helping people to:

adopt or maintain healthy behaviors;

reduce health-related risk factors; and

optimize care for identified health conditions.

Through our solutions, we work to optimize the health and well-being of entire populations, one person at a time, domestically and internationally, thereby creating value by reducing overall healthcare costs and improving productivity and performance for individuals, families, health plans, governments, employers and communities.

We believe it is critical to impact an entire population’s underlying health status and well-being in a long-term, cost effective way. Believing that what gets measured gets acted upon, in 2008, we entered into an exclusive, 25-year relationship with Gallup to provide a national, daily pulse of individual and collective well-being. The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being IndexTM is the result of a unique partnership in well-being measurement and research that is based upon surveys of 1,000 Americans every day, with more than 1.2 million surveys completed to date. Under the agreement, Gallup evaluates and reports on the well-being of individuals of countries, states and communities; Healthways provides similar services for companies, families and individuals. This relationship was recently expanded with the launch of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index in the United Kingdom and Germany, which we believe indicates the growing global interest in gaining clear insights for government and business leaders charged with shaping the policy responses necessary to improve health, increase individual and organizational performance, lower healthcare costs and achieve sustained economic growth.

To enhance health and well-being within their respective populations, our current and prospective customers require solutions that focus on the underlying drivers of healthcare demand, address worsening health status, reverse or slow unsustainable cost trends, foster healthy behaviors, mitigate health risk factors, and manage chronic conditions. Our strategy is to deliver programs that engage individuals and help them enhance their health status and well-being regardless of their starting point. We believe we can achieve health and well-being improvements in a population and generate significant cost savings and increases in productivity by providing effective programs that support the individual throughout his or her health journey.

We are adding and enhancing solutions to extend our reach and effectiveness and to meet increasing demand for integrated solutions. The flexibility of our programs allows customers to provide a range of services they deem appropriate for their organizations. Customers may select from certain single program options up to a total-population approach, in which all members of a customer’s population are eligible to receive our services. Recently signed contracts have expanded both the level of integration and breadth of services provided

to major health plans as they develop and implement a number of patient-centered medical home models. Our services extend beyond chronic care and wellness programs to include care management and pharmacy benefit management, as well as health promotion, prevention and quality improvement solutions.

Our strategy includes as a priority the ongoing expansion of our value proposition through the introduction of our total population management solution. This solution, in addition to improving individuals’ health and reducing direct healthcare costs, targets a much larger improvement in employer profitability by reducing the impact of lost productivity for health-related reasons. With the success of our total population management solution, we expect to gain an even greater competitive advantage in responding to employers’ needs for a healthier, higher-performing and less costly workforce.

Our strategy also includes the further enhancement and deployment of our proprietary next generation technology platform known as Embrace. This platform, which is essential to our total population management solution, enables us to integrate data from the healthcare organizations and other entities interacting with an individual. Embrace provides for the delivery of our integrated solutions and ongoing communications between the individual and his or her medical and health experts, using any method desired, including venue-based face-to-face; print; phone; mobile and remote devices; on-line; emerging modalities; and any combination thereof.

We plan to increase our competitive advantage in delivering our services by leveraging our scalable, state-of-the-art call centers, medical information content, behavior change processes and techniques, strategic relationships, health provider networks, fitness center relationships, and proprietary technologies and techniques. We may add new capabilities and technologies through internal development, strategic alliances with other entities, and/or selective acquisitions or investments.

We anticipate continuing to enhance, expand and integrate additional capabilities with health plans and to pursue opportunities with domestic government entities and communities as well as the public and private sectors of healthcare in international markets. In addition, the significant changes in government regulation of healthcare may afford us expanded opportunities to provide services to health plans and employers as well as collaborate with and/or directly provide solutions to integrated medical systems and provider groups in the post healthcare reform marketplace.

Critical Accounting Policies

We describe our accounting policies in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. We prepare the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

We believe the following accounting policies are the most critical in understanding the estimates and judgments that are involved in preparing our financial statements and the uncertainties that could impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Revenue Recognition

We generally determine our contract fees by multiplying a contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members covered by our services during the month. We typically set the PMPM rates during contract negotiations with customers based on the value we expect our programs to create and a sharing of that value between the customer and the Company. In addition, some of our services, such as the Healthways SilverSneakers fitness solution, include fees that are based upon member participation.

We generally bill our customers each month for the entire amount of the fees contractually due for the prior month’s enrollment, which typically includes the amount, if any, that is performance-based and may be subject to refund should we not meet performance targets. Deferred revenues arise from contracts which permit upfront billing and collection of fees covering the entire contractual service period, generally 12 months. We typically bill for any incentive bonus after the contract is settled. Fees for service are typically billed in the month after the services are provided.

We recognize revenue as follows: 1) we recognize the fixed portion of PMPM fees and fees for service as revenue during the period we perform our services; 2) we recognize the performance-based portion of the monthly fees based on the most recent assessment of our performance, which represents the amount that the customer would legally be obligated to pay if the contract were terminated as of the latest balance sheet date; and 3) we recognize additional incentive bonuses based on the most recent assessment of our performance, to the extent we consider such amounts collectible.

We assess our level of performance for our contracts based on medical claims and other data that the customer is contractually required to supply. A minimum of four to six months’ data is typically required for us to measure performance. In assessing our performance, we may include estimates such as medical claims incurred but not reported and a medical cost trend compared to a baseline year. In addition, we may also provide contractual allowances for billing adjustments (such as data reconciliation differences) as appropriate.

If data is insufficient or incomplete to measure performance, or interim performance measures indicate that we are not meeting performance targets, we do not recognize performance-based fees subject to refund as revenues but instead record them in a current liability account entitled “contract billings in excess of earned revenue.” Only in the event we do not meet performance levels by the end of the measurement period, typically one year, are we contractually obligated to refund some or all of the performance-based fees. We would only reverse revenues that we had already recognized if performance to date in the measurement period, previously above targeted levels, subsequently dropped below targeted levels. Historically, any such adjustments have been immaterial to our financial condition and results of operations.

During the settlement process under a contract, which generally occurs six to eight months after the end of a contract year, we settle any performance-based fees and reconcile healthcare claims and clinical data. As of June 30, 2011, performance-based fees that have not yet been settled with our customers but that have been recognized as revenue in the current and prior years totaled approximately $33.6 million, all of which was based on actual data received from our customers. Data reconciliation differences, for which we provide contractual allowances until we reach agreement with respect to identified issues, can arise between the customer and us due to customer data deficiencies, omissions, and/or data discrepancies.

Performance-related adjustments (including any amounts recorded as revenue that were ultimately refunded), changes in estimates, data reconciliation differences, or adjustments to incentive bonuses may cause us to recognize or reverse revenue in a current fiscal year that pertains to services provided during a prior fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized a net increase in revenue of $1.4 million that related to services provided prior to 2011.

Impairment of Intangible Assets and Goodwill

We review goodwill for impairment on an annual basis (during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year) or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

We estimate the fair value of each reporting unit using a discounted cash flow model and reconcile the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our consolidated market capitalization. The discounted cash flow model requires significant judgments, including management’s estimate of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term growth rate for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value and goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

If we determined that the carrying value of goodwill was impaired based upon an impairment review, we would calculate any impairment using a fair-value-based goodwill impairment test as required by U.S. GAAP. The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Except for a certain trade name which has an indefinite life and is not subject to amortization, we amortize identifiable intangible assets, such as acquired technologies and customer contracts, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. We assess the potential impairment of intangible assets subject to amortization whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. If we determine that the carrying value of other identifiable intangible assets may not be recoverable, we calculate any impairment using an estimate of the asset’s fair value based on the estimated price that would be received to sell the asset in an orderly transaction between market participants.

We review intangible assets not subject to amortization on an annual basis or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. We estimate the fair value of any trade names using a present value technique, which requires management’s estimate of future revenues attributable to these trade names, estimation of the long-term growth rate for these revenues, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value for the trade names.

Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that goodwill and/or other intangible assets associated with our acquired businesses are impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Income Taxes

The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Accounting for income taxes

requires significant judgment in determining income tax provisions, including determination of deferred tax assets, deferred tax liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets, and in evaluating tax positions.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. U.S. GAAP also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Share-Based Compensation

We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards based on estimated fair values at the date of grant. Determining the fair value of stock options at the grant date requires judgment in developing assumptions, which involve a number of variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and expected stock option exercise behavior. In addition, we also use judgment in estimating the number of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited.

Revenues

Revenues decreased $5.9 million and $22.0 million, or 3.4% and 6.2%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily due to contract and program terminations with certain customers, somewhat offset by increases in revenues due to the following:

·	new and expanded contracts; and

·	an increase in participation in our fitness center programs as well as in the number of members eligible to participate in such programs.

Cost of Services

Cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues increased to 74.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 69.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to the following:

·	costs associated with implementing certain significant new and innovative contracts;

·	an increase in implementation expenses primarily related to our Embrace platform;

·	an increased portion of our revenue generated by fitness solutions, which typically have a higher cost of services as a percentage of revenue than our other programs;

·	costs associated with an initiative to promote member participation in certain of our programs; and

·	certain costs that cannot be reduced in the same proportion and/or timeframe as the decrease in revenues discussed above.

These increases were somewhat offset by the following decreases in cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues:

·	a decrease in the level of short-term incentive compensation based on the Company’s year-to-date financial performance against established internal targets for these periods;

·	a decrease in salaries and benefits expense, primarily due to a restructuring of the Company, which was completed during the fourth quarter of 2010;

·	cost savings related to certain operational efficiencies; and

·	a decrease in health insurance costs related to a decrease in claims for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues increased to 74.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 70.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to the following:

·	costs associated with securing and implementing certain significant new and innovative contracts;

·	an increase in implementation expenses primarily related to our Embrace platform;

·	an increased portion of our revenue generated by fitness solutions, which typically have a higher cost of services as a percentage of revenue than our other programs;

·	changes in the contract structure of certain incentive-based wellness programs from a utilization model to a PMPM model as well as an increase in the number of members eligible for these programs and their utilization of such programs;

·	costs associated with an initiative to promote member participation in certain of our programs; and

·	certain costs that cannot be reduced in the same proportion and/or timeframe as the decrease in revenues discussed above.

These increases were somewhat offset by the following decreases in cost of services (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues:

·	a decrease in the level of short-term incentive compensation based on the Company’s year-to-date financial performance against established internal targets for these periods;

·	a decrease in salaries and benefits expense, primarily due to a restructuring of the Company, which was completed during the fourth quarter of 2010; and

·	cost savings related to certain operational efficiencies.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.0 million and $0.4 million, or 5.3% and 1.1%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily due to the following:

·	a decrease in the level of short-term incentive compensation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 based on the Company’s year-to-date financial performance against established internal targets for these periods; and

·	cost savings realized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from a restructuring of the Company that was largely completed during the fourth quarter of 2010.

These decreases were somewhat offset by increased costs involved in pursuing business in evolving markets such as domestic government, community, and certain international markets.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $0.9 million and $2.0 million, or 6.7% and 7.5%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily related to certain computer software that has become fully depreciated since June 30, 2010.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased 12.2% and 6.3%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily as a result of a decrease in the average interest rate paid on outstanding borrowings due to a decline in LIBOR rates and a lower average level of outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate increased to 43.7% and 43.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to 37.8% and 39.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to the favorable impact on the 2010 effective tax rate of an earn-out adjustment recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, as well as an increase during the three and six months ended June

30, 2011 in the level of certain expenses related to international operations for which we currently are not able to recognize a tax benefit.

Outlook

We anticipate that quarterly revenues and earnings will increase for the remainder of 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to the following:

·	the recognition of performance-based revenues and other revenues based on achieving certain targets and deliverables with respect to certain of our contracts;

·	a decrease in costs associated with securing and implementing certain significant new and innovative contracts;

·	ramping member enrollment on certain contracts throughout the year; and

·	a decrease in incentive costs related to member utilization of certain incentive-based wellness programs, which tends to be higher earlier in the year.

As discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below, a significant portion of our long-term debt is subject to fixed interest rate swap agreements; however, we cannot predict the potential for changes in interest rates, which would impact our variable rate debt. We anticipate that our effective tax rate for the remainder of 2011 will decrease slightly as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011; however, we will continue to monitor and adjust the rate based upon changes in the geographic mix of our earnings, changes in our ability to recognize a tax benefit on certain expenses related to international operations, adjustments to uncertain tax positions, and consideration of other tax issues affecting the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 provided cash of $49.0 million compared to $27.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in operating cash flow is primarily due to a lower short-term incentive compensation payment during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. These amounts are generally paid following the year in which they are earned.

Investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 used $24.8 million in cash, which primarily consisted of capital expenditures associated with our Embrace platform.

Financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 used $24.8 million in cash, primarily due to net repayments on borrowings under our credit agreement and repurchases of our common stock.

Credit Facility. Revolving advances under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 1.875% to 2.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.375% to 1.250%. Revolving advances under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 0.875% to 1.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.000% to 0.250%. Term loan borrowings bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus 1.50% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate. See below for a description of our interest rate swap agreements. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement also provides for a fee ranging between 0.150% and 0.300% of the unused commitments under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility and 0.275% and 0.425% of the unused commitments under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility. The Fourth Amended Credit Agreement is secured by guarantees from most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company’s and such subsidiaries’ assets.

We currently meet the hedge accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP in accounting for these interest rate swap agreements.

In October 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program which allows for the repurchase over a two-year period of up to $60 million of our common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. As of June 30, 2011, $46.0 million of our common stock is still subject to repurchase under this program.

We believe that cash flows from operating activities, our available cash, and our expected available credit under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement will continue to enable us to meet our contractual obligations, to effect the share repurchase program, and to fund our current operations for the foreseeable future. However, if our operations require significant additional financing resources, such as capital expenditures for technology improvements or additional call centers, or if we are required to refund performance-based fees pursuant to contract terms, we may need to raise additional capital by expanding our existing credit facility and/or issuing debt or equity. If we face a limited ability to arrange such financing, it may restrict our ability to effectively operate our business. We cannot assure you that we would always be able to secure additional financing if needed and, if such funds were available, whether the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us.

If contract development accelerates or acquisition opportunities arise, we may need to issue additional debt or equity to provide the funding for these increased growth opportunities. We may also issue equity in connection with future strategic alliances. We cannot assure you that we would be able to issue additional debt or equity on terms that would be acceptable to us.

Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in our contractual obligations from those reported at December 31, 2010 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for a new ten-year applications and technology services outsourcing agreement with HP that contains minimum fee requirements. Total payments over the ten-year term must equal or exceed a minimum level of approximately $185 million; however, based on initial required service and equipment level assumptions, we estimate that the total payments will be approximately $380 million, $18.0 million of which will occur during the remainder of 2011, $100.9 million of which will occur during 2012 and 2013, $80.8 million of which will occur during 2014 and 2015, and the remaining $180.3 million of which will occur thereafter. The agreement allows us to terminate all or a portion of the services after two years provided we pay certain termination fees which could be material to the Company.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to market risk related to interest rate changes, primarily as a result of the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, which bears interest based on floating rates. Revolving advances under the 2013 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 1.875% to 2.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.375% to 1.250%. Revolving advances under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility generally bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus a spread of 0.875% to 1.750% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate, plus a spread of 0.000% to 0.250%. Term loan borrowings bear interest, at our option, at 1) LIBOR plus 1.50% or 2) the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the prime rate.

In order to manage our interest rate exposure under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements effectively converting our floating rate debt to fixed obligations with interest rates ranging from 0.580% to 3.855%.

A one-point interest rate change would have resulted in a change in interest expense of approximately $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

As a result of our investment in international initiatives, we are also exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risks. Because a significant portion of these risks is economically hedged with currency options and forwards contracts and because our international initiatives are not yet material to our consolidated results of operations, a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have had a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011. We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
