Quarter Highlights

  • As of June 30, 2024, the Company served approximately 5.6 million members, an increase of 8% compared to June 30, 2023.
  • Premium revenue was approximately $9.4 billion for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 17% year over year.
  • GAAP net income was $5.17 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 3% year over year.
  • Adjusted net income was $5.86 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 4% year over year.
  • The Company reaffirmed its full year 2024 guidance with expected premium revenue of approximately $38 billion and adjusted earnings of at least $23.50 per diluted share.

“We are pleased with our performance in the quarter as our flagship Medicaid business continues to perform well along with strong contributions from both our Medicare and Marketplace businesses,” said Joseph Zubretsky, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We have successfully navigated the unprecedented redetermination process, and these highly attractive businesses provide the foundation for near and long-term sustainable profitable growth.”

Premium Revenue

Premium revenue was approximately $9.4 billion for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 17% year over year. The higher premium revenue reflects new contract wins, acquisitions, and growth in our current footprint, partially offset by the impact of Medicaid redeterminations.

Net Income

GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.17 per diluted share, a decrease of 3% year over year. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.86 per diluted share, an increase of 4% year over year.

Medical Care Ratio (MCR)

  • The consolidated MCR for the second quarter of 2024 was 88.6% and reflects continued focus on managing medical costs.
  • The Medicaid MCR for the second quarter of 2024 was 90.8%. Within that result, approximately 70 basis points were due to a one-time, retroactive premium adjustment related to the prior year. “New store�� Medicaid plans increased the reported MCR by approximately 80 basis points. Excluding the one-time item and new stores, the Medicaid MCR was approximately 89.3% and modestly higher than the Company’s long-term expectations due to redetermination-related acuity shifts.
  • The Medicare MCR for the second quarter of 2024 was 84.9%, better than the Company’s expectations, and reflects favorable risk adjustment results, and benefit adjustments implemented for 2024.
  • The Marketplace MCR for the second quarter of 2024 was 71.6%, better than the Company’s expectations, and reflects the Company’s favorable risk adjustment results.

General and Administrative Expense Ratio

The G&A ratio and the adjusted G&A ratio for the second quarter of 2024 were 7.0% and 6.9%, respectively.

Balance Sheet

Cash and investments at the parent company were $235 million as of June 30, 2024 compared to $742 million as of December 31, 2023.

Days in claims payable at June 30, 2024 was 50.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was a use of $5 million, compared to $1,403 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in cash flow for the period year-over-year was driven mainly by the net impact of timing differences in government receivables and payables, including Medicare and Medicaid prepayments, risk corridor settlement activity, and timing differences in receipts and payments of provider payables.

2024 Guidance

Premium revenue for the full year is expected to be approximately $38 billion, an increase of approximately 17% from the full year 2023.

The Company reaffirms its full year adjusted earnings per diluted share in 2024 to be at least $23.50, representing approximately 13% growth over the full year 2023. The Medicaid pressure experienced in the second quarter of 2024 is expected to be offset by higher net investment income and the extension of Virginia and Florida contracts in the second half of the year. The Company’s known rate adjustments in the second half of the year are expected to largely offset higher expected trend in the second half of the year.

CHANGE IN MEDICAL CLAIMS AND BENEFITS PAYABLE

(Dollars in millions)

 

The Company’s claims liabilities include additional reserves to account for moderately adverse conditions based on historical experience and other factors including, but not limited to, variations in claims payment patterns, changes in utilization and cost trends, known outbreaks of disease, and large claims. The Company’s reserving methodology is consistently applied across all periods presented. The amounts displayed for “Components of medical care costs related to: Prior year” represent the amounts by which the original estimates of claims and benefits payable at the beginning of the year were more than the actual liabilities based on information (principally the payment of claims) developed since those liabilities were first reported. The following table presents the components of the change in medical claims and benefits payable for the periods indicated:

MOLINA HEALTHCARE, INC.

RECONCILIATION OF UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(In millions, except per diluted share amounts)

 

The Company believes that certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures are useful supplemental measures to investors in comparing the Company’s performance to the performance of other public companies in the health care industry. The non-GAAP financial measures are also used internally to enable management to assess the Company’s performance consistently over time. These non-GAAP financial measures, presented below, should be considered as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or superior to, GAAP measures.

 

Adjustments represent additions and deductions to GAAP net income as indicated in the table below, which include the non-cash impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, and the impact of certain expenses and other items that management believes are not indicative of longer-term business trends and operations.

 

Adjusted G&A Ratio represents the GAAP G&A ratio, recognizing adjustments.

 

Adjusted net income represents GAAP net income recognizing the adjustments, net of tax. The Company believes that adjusted net income is helpful to investors in assessing the Company’s financial performance.

 

Adjusted net income per diluted share represents adjusted net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

 

Adjusted after-tax margin represents adjusted net income, divided by total revenue.
