WellCare Reports Annual and Fourth Quarter 2010 Results
Tampa, Florida (February 16, 2011) — WellCare Health Plans, Inc. (NYSE: WCG) today reported results for the year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2010. As determined under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $26.1 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared with $11.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2009. Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $30.4 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, compared with $20.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2009.
As determined under GAAP, the Company reported a net loss for the year 2010 of $53.4 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, compared with net income of $39.9 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, for the year 2009. Adjusted net income for the year 2010 was $114.2 million, or $2.67 per diluted share, compared with $126.6 million, or $3.00 per diluted share, for the year 2009.
“We are pleased with our accomplishments in 2010, which are the foundation for our optimism about continued strategic, operational, and financial progress in 2011,” said Alec Cunningham, WellCare’s chief executive officer. “We are confident that we will continue to strengthen our service and value to our members, government customers, and business partners in 2011 and beyond.”
WellCare made progress on its top priorities during 2010. With respect to improving health care quality and access, WellCare received full URAC health plan accreditation for its two Florida health plans, increased many of its Medicare Advantage plans’ and prescription drug plans’ (“PDPs’”) star scores, and increased a number of Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (“HEDIS®”) measures for its Medicaid plans. In addition, the Company’s administrative cost structure was a focus with the execution of a strategic and organizational restructuring and process improvements that have positioned WellCare for an anticipated 80 to 100 basis point reduction in its administrative expense ratio in 2011.
During 2010, WellCare also invested in delivering prudent, profitable growth in its three business segments. These investments are the drivers of expected premium revenue growth of 8% to 10% in 2011. Finally, the Company made progress in resolving complex legal and regulatory matters, including various previously disclosed government investigations and related litigation.

Basis of Presentation
WellCare has reassessed its reporting practices and, beginning this quarter, is reporting Medicaid premium tax expense separate from selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expense. Historically, the Company has reported premium tax expense within SG&A expense. In addition, the Company is excluding Medicaid premium taxes from premium revenue when calculating its medical benefits ratios (“MBRs”), administrative expense ratio, and other key measurements. The Company believes that reporting certain measurements excluding Medicaid premium taxes provides useful information for investors, as the impact of Medicaid premium taxes on the Company’s key ratios and measurements is not indicative of operating performance.
In addition to results determined under GAAP, net income and certain other operating results described in this news release are reported after adjustment for certain SG&A expenses related to previously disclosed government investigations and related litigation and associated resolution costs that management believes are not indicative of long-term business operations. Please refer to the schedules in this news release that provide supplemental information reconciling results determined under GAAP to adjusted results.
Highlights of Operations for the Fourth Quarter
Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was favorable in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2009 primarily due to decreases in the MBRs of all three of the Company’s segments, which were driven by lower medical benefits expense, as well as decreased SG&A expense. These improvements were offset in part by decreased gross margin from the December 31, 2009, withdrawal of the Company’s Medicare Advantage private fee-for-service (“PFFS”) plans and from reduced membership in the Company’s Medicare Advantage coordinated care plans (“CCPs”) due mainly to the impact of the previously disclosed 2009 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) marketing sanction.
Membership as of December 31, 2010, decreased to 2.2 million, compared with 2.3 million members as of December 31, 2009. Medicaid segment membership decreased by 9,000 year-over-year to 1.3 million as of December 31, 2010. Medicare Advantage membership decreased year-over-year by 109,000 members. The withdrawal from PFFS plans reduced membership by 95,000 year-over-year. Medicare Advantage CCP membership decreased 14,000. PDP membership increased 21,000 year-over-year, to end the year at 768,000 members, up from 747,000 members at December 31, 2009.
Premium revenue for the fourth quarter 2010 decreased 17% year-over-year to $1.3 billion. The decrease was attributable to the withdrawal of PFFS plans and to the impact of the 2009 CMS marketing sanction on Medicare Advantage segment revenue, offset in part by growth in revenue in the PDP and Medicaid segments.
Medical benefits expense was $1.1 billion, a decrease of 21% from the fourth quarter of 2009. The MBR was 82.5% in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with 86.0% in the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease was driven by the improved performance of the Company’s PDPs and Medicaid plans, as well as the withdrawal from PFFS plans.

SG&A expense as determined under GAAP was $194 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with $203 million for the same period in 2009. Adjusted SG&A was $179 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, a decrease of 6% from $191 million in the same period last year. The year-over-year decrease in adjusted SG&A expense resulted principally from gains in operating efficiency and the withdrawal from PFFS plans. The adjusted administrative expense ratio was 13.4% in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with 11.8% for the same period in 2009, due primarily to a lower revenue base in 2010 resulting from the withdrawal of the Company’s PFFS plans and the impact of the 2009 CMS marketing sanction.
Cash Flow and Financial Condition Highlights
Net cash provided by operating activities as determined under GAAP was $223 million and $58 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities, modified for the timing of receipts from, and payments to, the Company’s government clients, was $73 million and $93 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
As of December 31, 2010, unregulated cash and short-term investments were approximately $193 million. Unregulated cash and short-term investments were approximately $201 million as of September 30, 2010, and $120 million on December 31, 2009.
Days in claims payable were 62 days as of December 31, 2010, compared with 56 days as of September 30, 2010, and 53 days as of December 31, 2009.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Modified
for the Timing of Receipts from and Payments to Government Clients
(Dollars in thousands)
The Company reports cash provided by operating activities on a non-GAAP basis to exclude the changes in premium receivables, unearned premiums, and other receivables from, and payables to, government customers. The Company believes that cash flow excluding these changes is a useful measure for investors, as the excluded changes are a function of the timing of cash receipts from, and payments to, federal and state government agencies at the end of a period.

WELLCARE HEALTH PLANS, INC.
UNAUDITED SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
WellCare has reassessed its reporting practices and, beginning this quarter, is reporting Medicaid premium tax expense separate from SG&A expense. Historically, the Company has reported premium tax expense within SG&A expense. In addition, the Company is excluding Medicaid premium taxes from premium revenue when calculating its MBRs, administrative expense ratio, and other key measurements. The Company believes that reporting certain measurements excluding Medicaid premium taxes provides useful information for investors, as the impact of Medicaid premium taxes on the Company’s key ratios and measurements is not indicative of operating performance. The following table provides MBRs and adjusted administrative expense ratios computed using the new reporting practice for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2010, and the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010.
