WELLCARE REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2012 RESULTS
Tampa, Florida (May 2, 2012) – WellCare Health Plans, Inc. (NYSE: WCG) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012. As determined under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $51.2 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, compared with $21.3 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011. Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $57.3 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, compared with $28.2 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011.
“Growth this quarter reflects the strength of our long-term focus on Medicaid and Medicare, as well as those dually eligible for both programs,” said Alec Cunningham, WellCare’s chief executive officer. “We continue to have many important opportunities for growth in providing quality, cost-effective health care solutions to our members and government customers.”
WellCare’s first quarter results are highlighted by 22% premium revenue growth and sustained discipline in the management of medical and administrative expenses. The Company also continued to devote significant resources to expansion opportunities serving government health care programs. For example, during the first quarter, membership in special needs plans for those dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid grew more than 60% year over year. In January, Hawaii selected WellCare’s ‘Ohana Health Plan to serve individuals, families and children through the QUEST Medicaid program. ‘Ohana also recently was awarded New Health Plan Accreditation from the National Committee for Quality Assurance. WellCare’s health care quality initiatives continued to focus on care management, including strengthening resources devoted to resolving Medicaid members’ care gaps. In addition, the Company recently has broadly deployed an enhanced case management model that integrates field-based and telephonic multi-disciplinary care teams to better address the clinical, behavioral, and socioeconomic needs of its most medically complex members.
Reclassification of Quality Improvement Costs
The Company has reassessed its reporting practices and, beginning this quarter, has reclassified to medical benefits expense certain costs related to quality improvement activities that were formerly reported as part of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense. These quality improvement costs include preventive health and wellness and care management, case and disease management, health plan accreditation costs, provider education and incentives for closing care gaps, health risk assessments and member outreach, and information technology costs related to the above activities.

For the first quarter of 2012, this reclassification resulted in an increase to the Company medical benefits ratio (“MBR”) of approximately 160 basis points. With respect to segment performance, the reclassification had the effect of increasing the Medicaid MBR by 160 basis points. The Medicare Advantage segment MBR increased by 190 basis points, and the Prescription Drug Plan (“PDP”) MBR increased 40 basis points. WellCare’s adjusted administrative expense ratio, as well as the administrative expense ratio as reported under GAAP, both decreased by 150 basis points as a result of the reclassification.
Throughout this news release, prior year data has been reclassified to conform to the current method of presentation. Please refer to the schedule in this news release that provides supplemental information reconciling results determined under the new reporting classification to those reported in prior periods.
Highlights of Operations for the First Quarter
Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2012 increased compared with the first quarter of 2011, primarily due to higher premium revenue in all segments, and lower MBRs in the Medicare Advantage and PDP segments. The decrease in our adjusted administrative expense ratio also contributed to the increase in adjusted net income.
Membership as of March 31, 2012, increased 6% year over year to 2.5 million, compared with 2.4 million members as of March 31, 2011. Medicaid segment membership increased by 157,000, or 12%, year over year to 1.5 million members as of March 31, 2012. Medicare Advantage membership increased year over year by 31,000, or 26%. PDP segment membership decreased 38,000 year over year, or 4%.
Premium revenue for the first quarter of 2012 increased 22% year over year to $1.8 billion. The increase was driven by 26% growth in Medicaid segment premium revenue, 24% growth in Medicare Advantage segment revenue, and 5% growth in PDP segment revenue.
Medical benefits expense for the first quarter of 2012 was $1.5 billion, an increase of 20% from the first quarter of 2011. The Company MBR was 86.1% in the first quarter of 2012, compared with 86.9% in the first quarter of 2011. The Medicaid segment MBR increased year over year, while the Medicare Advantage and PDP segment MBRs decreased. The Company recorded net favorable development of prior years' medical benefits payable in both the first quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2011. In both years, nearly all of the favorable development was attributable to the Medicaid and Medicare Advantage segments.
SG&A expense as determined under GAAP was $162 million in the first quarter of 2012, compared with $151 million for the same period in 2011. Adjusted SG&A was $149 million in the first quarter of 2012, an increase from $140 million in the same period last year. The increase was attributable primarily to membership growth. The adjusted administrative expense ratio was 8.4% in the first quarter of 2012, compared with 9.6% in the same period in 2011.

Modified for the timing of receipts from, and payments to, WellCare’s government customers, net cash provided by operating activities was $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared with net cash used in operating activities of $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Financial Outlook
WellCare is updating its financial outlook for the year ended December 31, 2012, as follows:
|
·
|
Adjusted net income per diluted share is expected to be between approximately $5.20 and $5.40, an increase from the previous guidance of $4.40 and $4.60. The increase is driven primarily by the net favorable development of medical benefits payable recorded in the first quarter of 2012.
|
|
·
|
Premium revenue is expected to be between approximately $7.0 and $7.1 billion, an increase from the previous guidance of $6.95 and $7.05 billion.
|
|
·
|
The 2012 Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and PDP segments' MBRs each are anticipated to increase relative to the respective 2011 segment MBRs. This has not changed from the prior guidance.
|
|
·
|
The adjusted administrative expense ratio is expected to be in the range of 8.7% to 8.9%. This is essentially unchanged from the previous guidance of 10.4% to 10.6% after giving effect to the reclassification of quality improvement costs, as described above.
|
All elements of the Company’s outlook exclude the impact of Medicaid premium taxes.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Cash Provided by or Used in Operating Activities
to Net Cash Provided by or Used in Operating Activities,
Modified for the Timing of Receipts from, and Payments to, Government Customers
(Unaudited; dollars in thousands)
The Company reports cash provided by or used in 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 provided by or used in operating activities 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.

(Unaudited; dollars in thousands)
Effective January 1, 2012, the Company reclassified to medical benefits expense certain costs related to quality improvement activities that were formerly reported as SG&A expense.

The following table reflects the impact of the Company’s reclassification of quality improvement costs for the three month periods ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2011, and for the year ended December 31, 2011.
