Jul 26, 2017Elevance Health, Inc. (formerly Anthem, Inc.) reported solid financial performance for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Total operating revenue increased by 7.1% year-over-year to $44.5 billion, driven by higher premium revenues across both Government and Commercial & Specialty segments. Net income saw a significant jump of 25.7% to $1.9 billion, largely attributed to lower income tax expenses, notably the suspension of the Health Insurance Provider Fee (HIP Fee) and favorable tax benefits from prior acquisition costs. Diluted EPS also grew by 24.4% to $6.89. The company experienced growth in its medical membership by 1.6%, reaching over 40.3 million members, with notable increases in Medicaid and Local Group segments. However, operating gain for the segments saw a decline, particularly in the Government Business (down 21.1%) and Commercial & Specialty Business (down 4.1%), driven by factors such as the HIP Fee suspension and increased incentive compensation. Despite these segment-level pressures, the overall financial health appears robust, supported by strong operating cash flow of $3.1 billion. Investors should monitor the ongoing legal proceedings, particularly the litigation with Cigna and the ongoing pharmacy benefit management dispute with Express Scripts, which represent significant contingent liabilities and potential financial risks.

(formerly Anthem, Inc.) reported strong financial performance for the first quarter of 2017, with operating revenue increasing by 9.9% year-over-year to $22.3 billion and net income rising by 43.7% to $1.01 billion.

Despite robust revenue and net income growth, investors should note the ongoing significant legal and regulatory challenges.

Additionally, Anthem is facing other substantial legal actions, including a major antitrust lawsuit involving Blue Cross Blue Shield licensees and a significant lawsuit against its pharmacy benefit manager, Express Scripts, over pricing disputes.
