Molina Healthcare Reports First Quarter 2019 Financial Results and Raises Full Year 2019 Earnings Guidance

  • Net income per diluted share was $2.99 in the first quarter of 2019
    compared with $1.64 in the first quarter of 2018, which included a net
    benefit of $0.38 per diluted share for non-run-rate items
  • After-tax margin improved to 4.8% in the first quarter of 2019
    compared with 2.3% in the first quarter of 2018
  • Medical care ratio was 85.3% in the first quarter, an improvement from
    87.7% in the first quarter of 2018, excluding non-run-rate items in
    the first quarter of 2018
  • Premium revenue was $4.0 billion in the first quarter of 2019, a 9%
    decrease compared with the first quarter of 2018, which was in line
    with the Company’s expectations
  • The Company raised full year 2019 earnings guidance to $10.50 – $11.00
    from $9.25 – $9.75, which does not include any future prior-period
    reserve development

LONG BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Molina Healthcare, Inc. (NYSE: MOH) today reported financial results for
the first quarter of 2019 and raised full year 2019 guidance.

“These results are a testament to the achievability of the second phase
of our strategy, which is to sustain the attractive margin position we
had built in 2018,” said Joe Zubretsky, president and CEO. “While
certainly not conclusive, our first quarter results validate our
position that durable financial and operational improvement can and
should allow us to sustain these margins, all while we begin to grow the
top line again.”

Consolidated Results

First Quarter of 2019 Compared with First Quarter of 2018

Net income increased to $198 million from $107 million in the first
quarter of 2018. Net income per diluted share increased to $2.99 from
$1.64 in the first quarter of 2018.

Premium revenue decreased $371 million, or 9%, in the first quarter of
2019 compared with the first quarter of 2018, as expected. The decrease
was primarily due to the previously announced loss of the Company’s New
Mexico Medicaid contract along with the resizing of the Company’s
Florida Medicaid contract and the related transition out of all but two
regions.

The medical care ratio (MCR) was 85.3% in the first quarter of 2019, an
improvement compared with 86.1% in the first quarter of 2018. Excluding
the $70 million benefit of the 2017 Marketplace cost-sharing reduction
(CSR) reimbursement recognized in first quarter of 2018, the MCR would
have been 87.7% in the first quarter of 2018. The change in the overall
MCR was due to:

  • The Medicaid MCR was 88.5% in the first quarter of 2019, an
    improvement compared with 90.8% in the first quarter of 2018. This was
    mainly due to improvements in the Temporary Assistance for Needy
    Families and Aged, Blind or Disabled programs, partially offset by an
    increased MCR in the Medicaid Expansion program, primarily in
    California and Ohio.
  • The Marketplace MCR was 62.2% in the first quarter of 2019, compared
    with 50.6% in the first quarter of 2018. The prior year MCR was
    positively impacted by the benefit of the CSR, without which the
    Marketplace MCR would have been 66.8% in the first quarter of 2018.
    The year-over-year improvement primarily reflected increased premium
    revenue related to rate increases and risk scores that are more
    commensurate with the acuity of the Company’s Marketplace population.

The general and administrative (G&A) expense ratio was 7.3% in the first
quarter of 2019, an improvement compared with 7.6% in the first quarter
of 2018 primarily due to lower expenses and the timing of certain
expenditures, which were partially offset by the impact associated with
lower premium revenue.

Capital Plan Progress

In the first quarter of 2019, the Company repaid $46 million aggregate
principal amount of its 1.125% Convertible Notes and entered into
privately negotiated termination agreements to terminate the respective
portion of the related 1.125% Call Option and 1.125% Warrants.

In April 2019, the Company repaid an additional $128 million aggregate
principal amount of its 1.125% Convertible Notes and entered into
privately negotiated termination agreements to terminate the respective
portion of the related 1.125% Call Option and 1.125% Warrants. Following
these transactions, the remaining principal amount outstanding of the
Company’s 1.125% Convertible Notes is $78 million. In addition, the
Company has received a conversion notice for $7 million principal amount
that will be settled in August 2019.
