“Broad based momentum across Elevance Health continued in the third quarter, driven by the focused execution of our strategy and the dedication of our over 100,000 associates,” said Gail K. Boudreaux, President and CEO. “We are united in our purpose to improve the health of humanity, and I am proud of the work our associates are doing to support their colleagues and communities so tragically impacted by the recent hurricanes in Florida and Puerto Rico. It’s in times such as these that our culture shines through.”

CONSOLIDATED HIGHLIGHTS
Earnings Per Share: GAAP net income was $6.68 per share in the third quarter, including net negative adjustment items of $0.85 per share. Adjusted net income was $7.53* per share, reflecting growth of 10.9% from $6.79 in the same period a year ago.
*Please refer to the GAAP reconciliation tables.
Membership: Medical membership totaled approximately 47.3 million as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 2.2 million, or 4.9 percent year-over-year. Commercial & Specialty Business membership increased by 1.2 million year-over-year driven by strong sales to fee-based employers. Government Business membership increased by 1.0 million compared to the prior year quarter, driven primarily by growth in the Medicaid business, the acquisitions of Paramount Advantage and Integra Managed Care, and organic growth in Medicare Advantage.
During the third quarter of 2022, medical membership increased by 232 thousand driven by organic growth in Medicaid, which we attribute primarily to the suspension of eligibility recertification, and organic growth in our commercial fee-based membership.
Operating Revenue: Operating revenue was $39.6 billion in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $4.1 billion, or 11.5 percent year-over-year. The increase was driven by higher premium revenue due to membership growth in Medicaid, including the acquisitions of Integra Managed Care and Paramount Advantage, growth in Medicare Advantage and commercial risk-based membership, as well as premium rate increases to cover overall cost trends. The increase in operating revenue was further attributable to the growth in pharmacy product revenue within IngenioRx related to growth in membership and higher utilization of prescription drugs.
Benefit Expense Ratio: The benefit expense ratio was 87.2 percent in the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of 50 basis points year-over-year. The decrease was primarily driven by the realignment of certain quality improvement costs to match recent regulatory clarifications. Excluding the realignment, our benefit expense ratio would have been approximately flat year-over-year.
Medical claims reserves established at December 31, 2021 developed in line with the Company’s expectations as of the third quarter of 2022.
Days in Claims Payable: Days in Claims Payable was 47.7 days as of September 30, 2022, a decrease of 0.1 days from June 30, 2022 and an increase of 0.9 days compared to September 30, 2021.
SG&A Expense Ratio: The SG&A expense ratio was 11.4 percent in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 30 basis points from 11.1 percent in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increased spend to support growth in operations and the realignment of certain quality improvement expenses out of benefit expense and into SG&A expense, partially offset by operating expense leverage associated with growth in operating revenue.
Operating Cash Flow: Operating cash flow was approximately $4.9 billion, or 3.1 times net income in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $2.4 billion as compared to the prior year quarter. The year-on-year increase was driven by the timing of CMS payments received in the current quarter, partially offset by the BCBSA litigation settlement payment that occurred in the third quarter of 2022.
Share Repurchase Program: During the third quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.2 million shares of its common stock for $579 million, at a weighted average price of $476.70. Year-to-date, as of the end of the third quarter, the Company repurchased 3.7 million shares of its common stock for $1.7 billion, at a weighted average price of $473.36. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $2.4 billion of Board-approved share repurchase authorization remaining.
Cash Dividend: During the third quarter of 2022, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.28 per share, representing a distribution of cash totaling $306 million.
On October 18, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors declared a fourth quarter 2022 dividend to shareholders of $1.28 per share. The fourth quarter dividend is payable on December 21, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 5, 2022.
Investment Portfolio & Capital Position: During the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net losses of $57 million. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company recorded net losses of $61 million. These amounts are excluded from adjusted earnings per share.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s net unrealized loss position in the investment portfolio was $2.8 billion, consisting primarily of fixed maturity securities. As of September 30, 2022, cash and investments at the parent company totaled approximately $1.0 billion.

- See “Basis of Presentation.”
Commercial & Specialty Business: Operating gain in the Commercial & Specialty Business segment totaled $785 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $165 million from $620 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by improved medical underwriting performance in our commercial risk-based business partially offset by an increase in operating expenses in support of growth.
Government Business: Operating gain in the Government Business segment was $868 million in the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $99 million from $967 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by higher operating costs in support of growth of our government health benefits business partially offset by increased gross profit in the period.
IngenioRx: Operating gain was $516 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $71 million from $445 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by out of period fee-based revenue and higher prescription volumes associated with growth in integrated medical and pharmacy members.
Other: The Company reported an operating gain of $101 million in the Other segment for the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $74 million from $27 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by growth in Carelon's affiliated and unaffiliated earnings.
Basis of Presentation
- 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 selling, general and administrative 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.
- Operating margin is defined as operating gain divided by operating revenue.

GAAP Reconciliation
(Unaudited)
Elevance Health, Inc. has referenced “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Net Income Per Share,” which are non-GAAP measures, in this document. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to be alternatives to any measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition to these non-GAAP measures, references are made to the measures “Operating Revenue” and “Operating Gain.” Each of these measures is provided to further aid investors in understanding and analyzing the company’s core operating results and comparing Elevance Health, Inc.’s financial results. A reconciliation of Operating Revenue to Total Revenue is set forth in the Consolidated Statements of Income herein. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, together with a reconciliation of reportable segments operating gain to income before income tax expense, is reported below. Prior amounts may be grouped differently to conform to current presentation.

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect our views about future events and financial performance and are generally not historical facts. Words such as “expect,” “feel,” “believe,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements include, but are not limited to: financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions; statements regarding plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations, products and services; and statements regarding future performance. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward- looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. You are also urged to carefully review and consider the various risks and other disclosures discussed in our reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors that affect our business. Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the impact of large scale medical emergencies, such as public health epidemics and pandemics, including COVID-19, and catastrophes; trends in healthcare costs and utilization rates; our ability to secure sufficient premium rates, including regulatory approval for and implementation of such rates; the impact of federal, state and international law and regulation, including changes in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, as amended; changes in economic and market conditions, as well as regulations that may negatively affect our liquidity and investment portfolios; our ability to contract with providers on cost-effective and competitive terms; competitive pressures and our ability to adapt to changes in the industry and develop and implement strategic growth opportunities; reduced enrollment; the impact of a cyber-attack or other cyber security breach resulting in unauthorized disclosure of member or employee sensitive or confidential information, including the impact and outcome of any investigations, inquiries, claims and litigation related thereto; risks and uncertainties regarding Medicare and Medicaid programs, including those related to non-compliance with the complex regulations imposed thereon; our ability to maintain and achieve improvement in Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Star ratings and other quality scores and funding risks with respect to revenue received from participation therein; a negative change in our healthcare product mix; costs and other liabilities associated with litigation, government investigations, audits or reviews; risks and uncertainties related to our pharmacy benefit management (“PBM”) business, including non-compliance by any party with the PBM services agreement between us and CaremarkPCS Health, L.L.C.; medical malpractice or professional liability claims or other risks related to healthcare and PBM services provided by our subsidiaries; general risks associated with mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic alliances; changes in tax laws; possible impairment of the value of our intangible assets if future results do not adequately support goodwill and other intangible assets; possible restrictions in the payment of dividends from our subsidiaries and increases in required minimum levels of capital; our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock and pay dividends on our common stock due to the adequacy of our cash flow and earnings and other considerations; the potential negative effect from our substantial amount of outstanding indebtedness; a downgrade in our financial strength ratings; the effects of any negative publicity related to the health benefits industry in general or us in particular; failure to effectively maintain and modernize our information systems; events that may negatively affect our licenses with the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association; intense competition to attract and retain employees; risks associated with our international operations; and various laws and provisions in our governing documents that may prevent or discourage takeovers and business combinations.
