Gail K. Boudreaux
President and Chief Executive Officer

Operating revenue was $48.8 billion in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of $6.5 billion, or 15 percent compared to the prior year quarter. This was driven by higher premium yields in our Health Benefits segment, acquisitions completed in the past year, growth in our Medicare Advantage and Individual ACA membership, and CarelonRx product revenue, partially offset by membership attrition in our Medicaid business.

The benefit expense ratio was 86.4 percent, an increase of 80 basis points year over year, reflecting higher Medicaid medical cost trend, partially offset by out of period premium taxes. Days in Claims Payable stood at 44.0 days as of March 31, 2025, when adjusted for our acquisition of CareBridge. This represents an increase of 0.5 days sequentially on a comparable basis.

The operating expense ratio was 10.9 percent, an improvement of 70 basis points from the prior year. The adjusted operating expense ratio was 10.7 percent, an improvement of 60 basis points, primarily driven by expense leverage associated with growth in operating revenue and ongoing cost management, partially offset by out of period premium tax expense during the quarter.

Cash Flow & Balance Sheet

Operating cash flow was $1.0 billion in the quarter, a decrease of approximately $1.0 billion year over year, reflecting timing-related items that negatively impacted working capital. As of March 31, 2025, cash and investments at the parent company totaled approximately $1.4 billion.

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 2.2 million shares of its common stock for $880 million, at a weighted average price of $395.78, and paid a quarterly dividend of $1.71 per share, representing a distribution of cash totaling $386 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $8.4 billion of Board approved share repurchase authorization remaining.

Health Benefits is comprised of Individual, Employer Group risk-based, Employer Group fee-based, BlueCard^庐, Medicare, Medicaid, and Federal Employee Program businesses.

Health Benefits segment operating revenue was $41.4 billion in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of $4.2 billion, or 11 percent compared to the prior year quarter, driven primarily by higher premium yields and growth in our Medicare Advantage and Individual ACA plan membership.

Operating gain totaled $2.2 billion, impacted primarily by higher medical cost trend in our Medicaid business versus the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by premium rate increases and enhanced operating efficiencies.

Medical membership totaled approximately 45.8 million as of March 31, 2025, an increase of 99 thousand from year-end 2024, driven by growth in Medicare Advantage and Commercial risk-based members. This growth was partially offset by a decline in Commercial fee-based membership from a known customer transition.

Carelon is comprised of CarelonRx and Carelon Services.

Operating revenue for Carelon was $16.7 billion in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of $4.6 billion, or 38 percent compared to the prior year quarter. This was driven by recent acquisitions in home health and pharmacy services, growth in CarelonRx product revenue, and the scaling of innovative risk-based capabilities in Carelon Services.

Operating gain for Carelon totaled $1.1 billion, an increase of $0.3 billion, or 34 percent, primarily driven by improved Carelon Health performance and higher CarelonRx product revenue.

Quarterly Dividend

On April 16, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors declared a second quarter 2025 dividend to shareholders of $1.71 per share. The second quarter dividend is payable on June 25, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 10, 2025.

Basis of Presentation

1. Operating revenue and operating gain/loss are the key measures used by management to evaluate performance in each of its reporting segments, allocate resources, set incentive compensation targets and to forecast future operating performance. Operating gain/loss is calculated as total operating revenue less benefit expense, cost of products sold and operating expense. It does not include net investment income, net gains/losses on financial instruments, interest expense, amortization of other intangible assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt or income taxes, as these items are managed in a corporate shared service environment and are not the responsibility of operating segment management. Refer to the GAAP reconciliation tables.
   
2. Operating margin is defined as operating gain divided by operating revenue.
