Consolidated Operations Results
GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2017 was $74.1 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $90.8 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year decrease was primarily the result of the $26.1 million, pretax, or $0.37 per diluted share, loss on extinguishment of debt related to the company's early redemption, on April 7, 2017, of its 5.75% $900.0 million of senior notes otherwise due 2020 ("2020 notes"), and one-time transaction and integration costs of $25.6 million, pretax, or $0.36 per diluted share, related to the acquisition of Universal American, partially offset by continued operational execution.
Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2017 was $113.4 million, or $2.52 per diluted share, compared with adjusted net income of $99.5 million, or $2.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increase in adjusted net income was primarily the result of premium revenue growth in the company's Medicaid Health Plans and Medicare Health Plans segments and continued operational execution.
GAAP net income margin for the second quarter of 2017 was 1.7 percent compared with 2.5 percent for the second quarter of 2016. Adjusted net income margin for the second quarter of 2017 was 2.7 percent compared with 2.8 percent for the second quarter of 2016.
GAAP and adjusted total premium revenue of $4.3 billion for the second quarter of 2017 increased 19.6 percent and 21.6 percent, respectively, compared with the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increases in GAAP and adjusted total premium revenue were primarily the result of the company's acquisitions of Universal American and Care1st Arizona and organic growth across all three lines of business.
GAAP SG&A expense was $365.5 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared with $278.0 million for the second quarter of 2016. The GAAP SG&A expense ratio was 8.5 percent for the second quarter of 2017 compared with 7.7 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increases were primarily the result of the company's acquisitions of Universal American, including one-time transaction and integration costs, and Care1st Arizona as well as staffing and infrastructure costs to support organic growth.
Adjusted SG&A expense was $336.7 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared with $270.0 million for the second quarter of 2016. The adjusted SG&A expense ratio was 7.9 percent for the second quarter of 2017 compared with 7.7 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increases were primarily the result of the company's acquisitions of Universal American and Care1st Arizona as well as staffing and infrastructure costs to support organic growth.
Medicaid Health Plans Segment Results
The company's Medicaid Health Plans segment produced strong growth in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The launch of the company's expanded Missouri Medicaid business, two acquisitions in Arizona and new Nebraska Medicaid business were the primary drivers in the year-over-year increases in Medicaid Health Plans membership as well as GAAP and adjusted premium revenue as described below:
- Medicaid Health Plans membership was 2.8 million members at June 30, 2017, and increased by 402,000 members, or 16.6 percent, compared with June 30, 2016. Medicaid Health Plans membership increased sequentially by 205,000 members, or 7.8 percent, from March 31, 2017.
- GAAP and adjusted Medicaid Health Plans premium revenue of $2.8 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively, for the second quarter of 2017 increased 15.7 percent and 18.7 percent, respectively, compared with the second quarter of 2016.
The GAAP Medicaid Health Plans MBR was 86.8 percent for the second quarter of 2017 compared with 83.6 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the effect of the ACA industry fee moratorium and, as a result, the elimination of associated Medicaid reimbursement revenue, the addition of new Medicaid businesses in Arizona and Nebraska, and new members from the statewide expansion of the Missouri Medicaid program.
The adjusted Medicaid Health Plans MBR was 87.7 percent for the second quarter of 2017 compared with 86.7 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the addition of new Medicaid businesses in Arizona and Nebraska and new members from the statewide expansion of the Missouri Medicaid program.
Medicare Health Plans Segment Results
Medicare Health Plans membership was 484,000 members as of June 30, 2017, and increased by 153,000 members, or 46.2 percent, compared with June 30, 2016, primarily as a result of the company's acquisition of Universal American, 2017 bid positioning and continued execution on sales and retention initiatives. Sequentially, Medicare Health Plans membership increased by 128,000 members, or 36.0 percent, from March 31, 2017, primarily as a result of the company's acquisition of Universal American.
Medicare Health Plans premium revenue of $1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2017 increased 33.3 percent compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase was primarily due to the company's acquisition of Universal American and year-over-year organic membership growth.
The Medicare Health Plans MBR for the second quarter of 2017 was 86.4 percent compared with 84.2 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The 220 basis point increase is primarily the result of the company's acquisition of Universal American and increased investments in quality initiatives.
Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (PDP) Segment Results
Medicare PDP membership was 1.1 million as of June 30, 2017, and increased by 104,000 members, or 10.3 percent, compared with June 30, 2016, primarily as a result of the company's 2017 bid positioning. Sequentially, Medicare PDP membership increased by 17,000 members, or 1.5 percent, from March 31, 2017.
Medicare PDP premium revenue of $225.6 million for the second quarter of 2017 was essentially flat compared with the second quarter of 2016.
The Medicare PDP segment MBR for the second quarter of 2017 was 86.5 percent compared with 75.1 percent for the second quarter of 2016. The year-over-year increase was primarily the result of the company's 2017 bid strategy.
Operating Cash Flow and Financial Condition
Net cash used by operating activities was $59.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $51.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
As of June 30, 2017, unregulated cash and investments were approximately $298.6 million compared with $833.3 million as of June 30, 2016 and $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2017. The year-over-year decrease was primarily the result of the early redemption in full of the 2020 notes and funding the acquisitions of Universal American, Care1st Arizona and PHP assets, offset by the issuance of 5.25% senior notes due 2025 in aggregate principal amount of $1.2 billion. The sequential decrease was due to the early redemption of the 2020 notes and the funding of the Universal American and PHP assets acquisitions.
Days in claims payable (DCP) was 47.8 days as of June 30, 2017 compared with 46.2 days as of March 31, 2017 and 49.3 days as of June 30, 2016.

Basis of Presentation
Discontinued Operations
In 2016, Universal American completed the sale of its life insurance business while retaining ownership of the life insurance subsidiary. Universal American entered into a 100% quota-share reinsurance treaty with the buyer which, among others, results in the reinsurance of all of the life insurance policies underwritten by the retained subsidiary. Accordingly, the discontinued business did not materially affect WellCare's results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. For additional information, refer to Note 13–Discontinued Operations within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in the company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2017, which will be filed within 40 days following the last day of the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results determined under GAAP, WellCare provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful in assessing the company's performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The company has provided a reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Earnings per share, net income and, as noted below, other specific operating and financial measures have been adjusted for the effect of certain expenses, and as appropriate, the related tax effect, related to previously disclosed government investigations and related litigation and resolution costs ("investigation costs"); amortization expense associated with acquisitions ("acquisition-related amortization expenses"); certain one-time transaction costs related to the acquisition of Universal American ("Universal American-related transaction costs"); certain one-time costs associated with the integration of Universal American's operations expected to be incurred through 2019 ("Universal American-related integration costs"); and the costs associated with the redemption of the company's 2020 notes, including the early redemption premium, write-off of associated deferred financing costs and write-off of associated premiums paid on the 2020 notes ("loss on extinguishment of debt"). In addition, in 2016, these financial measures have been adjusted for the effect of transitory costs related to the company's decision to change its pharmacy benefit manager as of January 1, 2016 ("PBM transitory costs"); certain nonrecurring incurred Iowa-related SG&A expenses relating to readiness costs, certain wind-down costs of WellCare's Iowa operations and certain legal costs ("Iowa SG&A costs"); and costs related to the 2015 divestiture of Sterling Life Insurance Company ("Sterling divestiture costs").
Although the excluded items may recur, WellCare believes that by providing non-GAAP measures exclusive of these items, it facilitates period-over-period comparisons and provides additional clarity about events and trends affecting its core operating performance, as well as providing comparability to competitor results. The investigation costs are related to a discrete incident which management does not expect to reoccur. WellCare has adjusted for acquisition-related amortization expenses as these transactions do not directly relate to the servicing of products for our customers and are not directly related to the core performance of its business operations. The other costs mentioned above are related to specific 2016 and 2017 events, which do not reflect the underlying ongoing performance of the business.
In addition, because reimbursements for Medicaid premium tax and the ACA industry fee are both included in the premium rates or reimbursement established in certain Medicaid contracts and also recognized separately as a component of expense, the company excludes these reimbursements from premium revenue when calculating key ratios as the company believes that these components are not indicative of operating performance.
The company is not able to project at the time of this news release the amount of expenses associated with investigation costs and Universal American-related integration costs to be to be incurred during the remainder of 2017, and, therefore, cannot reconcile projected non-GAAP measures affected by these items to projected GAAP measures.
Following is a description of the adjustments made to GAAP measures used to calculate the non-GAAP measures used in this news release.
Adjusted premium revenue (non-GAAP) = Total premium revenue (GAAP) less Medicaid premium taxes revenue and Medicaid reimbursements of the ACA industry fee. The company's adjusted Medicaid Health Plans segment premium revenue uses this non-GAAP definition of adjusted premium revenue.
MBR (GAAP) = medical benefits expense divided by total premium revenue (GAAP).
Adjusted MBR (non-GAAP) = medical benefits expense divided by adjusted premium revenue. The company's adjusted Medicaid Health Plans segment MBR uses this non-GAAP definition of adjusted MBR.
SG&A expense ratio (GAAP) = SG&A expense (GAAP) divided by total premium revenue (GAAP).
Adjusted SG&A expense (non-GAAP) = SG&A expense (GAAP) less investigation costs, Universal American-related transaction and integration costs, PBM transitory costs, Sterling divestiture costs and Iowa SG&A costs.
Adjusted SG&A ratio (non-GAAP) = adjusted SG&A expense divided by adjusted premium revenue.
Adjusted depreciation & amortization (non-GAAP) = depreciation & amortization expense (GAAP) less acquisition-related amortization expenses.
Adjusted income before taxes (non-GAAP) = income before income taxes (GAAP) less investigation costs, acquisition-related amortization expenses, Universal American-related transaction and integration costs, PBM transitory costs, Sterling divestiture costs, loss on extinguishment of debt and Iowa SG&A costs.
Adjusted income tax expense (non-GAAP) = income tax associated with the applicable adjusted income before taxes, based on the applicable effective income tax rate.
Adjusted effective income tax rate (non-GAAP) = adjusted income tax expense divided by adjusted income before taxes.
Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) = adjusted income before taxes less adjusted income tax expense.
Net income margin (GAAP) = net income (GAAP) divided by total premium revenue (GAAP).
Adjusted net income margin (non-GAAP) = adjusted net income divided by adjusted premium revenue.
Adjusted earnings per diluted share (non-GAAP) = Adjusted net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

(5) Excludes a one-time loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $26.1 million pre-tax, or $0.37 per diluted share, primarily related to the early redemption premium, write-off of associated deferred financing costs and write-off of associated premiums paid on the 2020 notes recorded in the second quarter of 2017. | |
(6)The company estimates adjusted earnings per diluted share guidance by adjusting net income for the estimated net-of-tax effect of investigation costs, acquisition-related amortization expense, Universal American-related transaction and integration costs and loss on extinguishment of debt. | |
(7)WellCare is not able to estimate amounts associated with the investigation costs, and Universal American-related integration costs expected to be incurred in 2017 and, therefore, cannot reconcile these metrics to total projected GAAP metrics. WellCare estimates that $25 million to $30 million of Universal American-related integration costs will be incurred through 2019. | |
