Footnotes
The company has included financial measures throughout this earnings release that are not in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that these measures, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provide a comprehensive perspective to more accurately compare and analyze the company’s core operating performance over time. Consequently, management uses these non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures as consistent and uniform indicators of the company’s core business operations from period to period, as well as for planning and decision-making purposes and in determination of incentive compensation. Non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. All financial measures in this earnings release are in accordance with GAAP unless otherwise indicated. Please refer to the footnotes for a detailed description of each item adjusted out of GAAP financial measures to arrive at non-GAAP (Adjusted) financial measures.

(a) For the periods covered in this earnings release, the following items are excluded from the non-GAAP financial
measures described above, as applicable:

Amortization associated with identifiable intangibles - Since amortization varies based on the size and timing of acquisition activity, management believes this exclusion provides a more consistent and uniform indicator of performance from period to period. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, and Insurance and CenterWell segments income from operations. The table below discloses respective period amortization expense for each segment:

4Q244Q23FY 2024FY 2023
Insurance segment$4$4$17$22
CenterWell segment$10$11$43$45

Put/call valuation adjustments associated with the company’s non-consolidating minority interest investments - These amounts are the result of fair value measurements associated with the company's Primary Care Organization strategic partnership and are unrelated to the company's core business operations. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results and (net loss per share) EPS.
Impact of exit of employer group commercial medical products business - These amounts relate to activity from the exit of the employer group commercial medical products business as announced by Humana on February 23, 2023. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, consolidated revenues, consolidated benefit ratio, consolidated operating cost ratio, Insurance segment revenues, Insurance segment benefit ratio, Insurance segment operating cost ratio, and Insurance segment income from operations.
Value creation initiatives - These charges relate to the company's ongoing initiative to drive additional value for the enterprise through cost saving, productivity initiatives, and value creation from previous investments, and primarily consist of asset impairment and severance charges. These charges were recorded at the corporate level and not allocated to the segments. For all periods shown within this earnings release, GAAP measures affected in this release include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, and the consolidated operating cost ratio.
Impairment charges - The company recognized non-cash impairment charges in 4Q24 and 4Q23 related to certain indefinite-lived intangible assets based on the company's estimate of future financial performance in certain state markets. Additionally, in 4Q23 the company recognized non-cash impairment charges related to minority ownership investments that were deemed to be unrecoverable based on investment performance. These charges were recorded at the corporate level and not allocated to the segments. For all periods, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, and the consolidated operating cost ratio. For 4Q23 and FY 20023, consolidated revenues (specifically investment income) were also affected.
Transaction and integration costs - The transaction and integration costs primarily related to the acquisition of Kindred at Home in 2021 and the subsequent divestiture of majority ownership of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice in 2022. For FY 2023, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, and the consolidated operating cost ratio.
Accrued charge related to certain anticipated litigation expenses - This charge related to certain anticipated expenses the company accrued in connection with a legal matter. For FY 2023, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, (net loss per share) EPS, the consolidated and Insurance segment operating cost ratios, and Insurance segment income from operations.
Change in fair market value of publicly-traded equity securities - These gains are a result of market and economic conditions that are unrelated to the company's core business operations. For FY 2023, GAAP measures affected include consolidated pretax results, EPS, and consolidated revenues (specifically investment income).
Cumulative net tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments - This adjustment represents the cumulative net impact of the corresponding tax benefit or expense related to the aforementioned items excluded from the applicable GAAP measures. For all periods presented in this earnings release, (net loss per share) EPS is the sole GAAP measure affected.

In addition to the reconciliations shown on page 2 of this release, the following are reconciliations of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) measures described above and disclosed within this earnings release:

Cautionary Statement
This news release includes forward-looking statements regarding Humana within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in investor presentations, press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of one of Humana’s executive officers, the words or phrases like “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “assumes,” “intends,” “likely will result,” “estimates,” “projects” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among other things, information set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the company’s SEC filings, a summary of which includes but is not limited to the following:
If Humana does not design and price its products properly and competitively, if the premiums Humana receives are insufficient to cover the cost of healthcare services delivered to its members, if the company is unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better healthcare experience for its members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of its members, or if its estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, Humana’s profitability could be materially adversely affected. Humana estimates the costs of its benefit expense payments, and designs and prices its products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. The company continually reviews estimates of future payments relating to benefit expenses for services incurred in the current and prior periods and makes necessary adjustments to its reserves, including premium deficiency reserves, where appropriate. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, Humana's reserves may be insufficient.
If Humana fails to effectively implement its operational and strategic initiatives, including its Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of the company's revenues in these products, state-based contract strategy, the growth of its CenterWell business, and its integrated care delivery model, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
6


The number of Humana’s Medicare Advantage plans rated 4-star or higher will significantly decline in 2025. Humana has filed a lawsuit seeking to set aside and vacate the 2025 Star Ratings of its Medicare Advantage plans, but there is no assurance that the company will prevail in this lawsuit. If the company is not successful, the decline in Star Ratings will negatively impact its 2026 quality bonus payments from CMS and may also significantly adversely affect the company’s revenues, operating results, and cash flows. In addition, there can be no assurances the company will be successful in maintaining or improving its Star Ratings in future years.
If Humana, or the third-party service providers on which it relies, fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, to strategically maintain existing or implement new information systems, to protect Humana’s proprietary rights to its systems, or to defend against cyber-security attacks, contain such attacks when they occur, or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt the company's operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
Humana is involved in various legal actions, or disputes that could lead to legal actions (such as, among other things, provider contract disputes and qui tam litigation brought by individuals on behalf of the government), governmental and internal investigations, and routine internal review of business processes any of which, if resolved unfavorably to the company, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in its business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could also increase the company’s cost of doing business.
As a government contractor, Humana is exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect its business or its willingness or ability to participate in government healthcare programs including, among other things, loss of material government contracts; governmental audits and investigations; potential inadequacy of government determined payment rates; potential restrictions on profitability, including by comparison of profitability of the company’s Medicare Advantage business to non-Medicare Advantage business; or other changes in the governmental programs in which Humana participates. Changes to the risk-adjustment model utilized by CMS to adjust premiums paid to Medicare Advantage plans or retrospective recovery by CMS of previously paid premiums as a result of the final rule related to the risk adjustment data validation audit methodology published by CMS on January 30, 2023 (Final RADV Rule), which Humana believes fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence and violates the Administrative Procedure Act due to its failure to include a "Fee for Service Adjuster" could have a material adverse effect on the company's operating results, financial position and cash flows.
Humana's business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase the company's cost of doing business and have a material adverse effect on Humana’s results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting the company’s ability to expand into new markets, increasing the company’s medical and operating costs by, among other things, requiring a minimum benefit ratio on insured products, lowering the company’s Medicare payment rates and increasing the company’s expenses associated with a non-deductible health insurance industry fee and other assessments); the company’s financial position (including the company’s ability to maintain the value of its goodwill); and the company’s cash flows.
Humana’s failure to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
If Humana fails to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to its members, the company’s business may be adversely affected.
Humana faces significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to the Company’s success, and its failure to do so could adversely affect the Company’s businesses, operating results and/or future performance.
Humana’s pharmacy business is highly competitive and subjects it to regulations and supply chain risks in addition to those the company faces with its core health benefits businesses.
Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect Humana’s financial performance.
7


Humana’s ability to obtain funds from certain of its licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.
Downgrades in Humana’s debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Volatility or disruption in the securities and credit markets may significantly and adversely affect the value of our investment portfolio and the investment income that we derive from this portfolio.

In making forward-looking statements, Humana is not undertaking to address or update them in future filings or communications regarding its business or results. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed herein may or may not occur. There also may be other risks that the company is unable to predict at this time. Any of these risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Humana advises investors to read the following documents as filed by the company with the SEC for further discussion both of the risks it faces and its historical performance:
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023;
Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2024; and
Form 8-Ks filed during 2024 and 2025.

Consolidated Revenues
The favorable year-over-year quarter and FY GAAP consolidated revenues comparisons were primarily driven by the following factors:
3


higher per member Medicare premiums, and
Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts membership growth.
These factors were partially offset by the continued decline in stand-alone PDP membership, as well as a decline in membership in the group commercial medical business as a result of the company's decision to exit the business.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated revenues for the respective periods.
Consolidated Benefit Ratio
The year-over-year quarterly and FY increases in the GAAP consolidated benefit ratio primarily reflected the following items:
continued impact of elevated Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts medical cost trends in 4Q24 and FY 2024, and
lower favorable prior period medical claims reserve development.
These factors were partially offset by the impact of the pricing and benefit design of the company's 2024 Medicare Advantage products, which included a reduction in benefits in response to the net impact of the 2024 final rate notice and the initial emergence of increased medical cost trends in 2023.
Furthermore, the year-over-year comparisons continue to reflect a shift in line of business mix, with growth in Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts and other membership, which can carry a higher benefit ratio.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated benefit ratios for the respective periods.

Consolidated Operating Cost Ratio
The year-over-year quarterly and FY decreases in the GAAP consolidated operating cost ratio from the respective 2023 periods primarily reflected the following:
scale efficiencies associated with growth in the company's Medicare Advantage membership,
administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the company's value creation initiatives,
a lesser impact from commission expense for brokers in 2024 compared to 2023 as a result of the significant individual Medicare Advantage membership growth in 2023, and
a lesser impact of value creation initiative charges in 4Q24 and FY 2024 compared to the prior year periods; these charges were recorded at the corporate level and not allocated to the segments.
4


The year-over-year FY comparison was further impacted by the accrued charge related to certain anticipated litigation expenses included in FY 2023 results.
These factors were partially offset by the following items:
impact of significantly reduced compensation accruals in 4Q23 and FY 2023 related to the annual incentive plan offered to employees across all levels of the company as the company's 2023 performance was negatively impacted by higher-than-anticipated Medicare Advantage utilization trends, and
higher impairment costs in 4Q24 and FY 2024.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted (non-GAAP) consolidated operating cost ratios for the respective periods.
Balance sheet
Days in claims payable (DCP) of 37.8 days at December 31, 2024 represented a decrease of 2.9 days from 40.7 days at September 30, 2024 and a decrease of 3.6 days from 41.4 days at December 31, 2023.
The 2.9 days sequential decrease was primarily driven by a 2.6-day impact related to a lesser processed claims inventory as of December 31, 2024 compared to September 30, 2024.
The 3.6 days year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by lower reserve requirements in provider-capitation accruals due to lower performance-based payment expectations and a lesser processed claims inventory.
Humana's debt-to-total capitalization at December 31, 2024 decreased 40 basis points to 41.9 percent from 42.3 percent at September 30, 2024 primarily driven by repayment of senior note and commercial paper debt, partially offset by the impact of the 4Q24 net loss.
Operating cash flows
The year-over-year decline in FY GAAP operating cash flows primarily reflected lower earnings in 2024, partially offset by the favorable impact of working capital items.
Humana’s Insurance Segment
This segment is comprised of insurance products serving Medicare and state-based contract beneficiaries, as well as individuals and employers. The segment also includes the company's Pharmacy Benefit Manager, or PBM, business.

January 2025 Ending Membership

January 2025 individual Medicare Advantage membership approximated 5,217,000, down approximately 444,800, or 8 percent, from December 31, 2024. The decrease reflects net membership losses during the recently completed 2025 Annual Election (AEP) period, inclusive of the company's decision to exit certain unprofitable plans and counties, which impacted approximately 560,000 members.

Included within the Individual Medicare Advantage membership are approximately 814,000 Dual Eligible Special Need Plans (D-SNP) members, a decrease of 123,100, or 13 percent, from December 31, 2024. The D-SNP membership decrease was driven in part by delayed redeterminations as a result of the Change Healthcare disruption in 2024.

January 2025 group Medicare Advantage membership approximated 576,000, up approximately 30,300, or 6 percent, from December 31, 2024, reflecting net membership additions during the 2025 selling season.

January 2025 stand-alone PDP membership approximated 2,465,000, up approximately 176,800, or 8 percent, from December 31, 2024, reflecting net membership additions during the recently completed 2025 AEP.
Humana’s CenterWell Segment
This segment includes pharmacy (excluding the PBM operations), primary care, and home solutions. The segment also includes the impact of non-consolidating minority interest investments related to the company's strategic partnerships with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS) to develop and operate senior-focused, payor-agnostic, primary care centers, as well as the Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs.

Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for further explanation of disclosures for Adjusted (non-GAAP) financial measures, as well as reconciliations.
CenterWell Segment Revenues
The favorable year-over-year quarter and FY CenterWell segment revenues comparisons were primarily impacted by the following factors:
greater intersegment revenues associated with the Home Solutions business in 2024 as compared to respective periods in 2023 as a result of the expansion of services to Humana members under value-based contracts,
an increase in Pharmacy Solutions revenues resulting from growth in the specialty pharmacy business, driven by increased penetration of Humana health plan members, as well as payor agnostic consumers, and
higher revenues associated with growth in the company's Primary Care business, partially offset by the impact of the v28 risk model revision.
CenterWell Segment Operating Cost Ratio
The year-over-year quarterly and FY increases in the segment's operating cost ratio primarily resulted from the following:
7


unfavorable impact of the v28 risk model revision to the company's Primary Care business, and
the impact of significantly reduced compensation accruals in 4Q23 and FY 2023.
This impact was partially offset by the following factors:
administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the company's value creation initiatives, and
positive prior period medical claims development within the Primary Care Organization.
See additional operational metrics for the CenterWell segment on pages S-13 through S-15 of the statistical supplement included in this earnings release.

The company has included financial measures throughout this earnings release that are not in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that these measures, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provide a comprehensive perspective to more accurately compare and analyze the company’s core operating performance over time.

Cautionary Statement
This news release includes forward-looking statements regarding Humana within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in investor presentations, press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of one of Humana’s executive officers, the words or phrases like “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “assumes,” “intends,” “likely will result,” “estimates,” “projects” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among other things, information set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the company’s SEC filings, a summary of which includes but is not limited to the following:
If Humana does not design and price its products properly and competitively, if the premiums Humana receives are insufficient to cover the cost of healthcare services delivered to its members, if the company is unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better healthcare experience for its members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of its members, or if its estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, Humana’s profitability could be materially adversely affected. Humana estimates the costs of its benefit expense payments, and designs and prices its products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. The company continually reviews estimates of future payments relating to benefit
11


expenses for services incurred in the current and prior periods and makes necessary adjustments to its reserves, including premium deficiency reserves, where appropriate. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, Humana's reserves may be insufficient.
If Humana fails to effectively implement its operational and strategic initiatives, including its Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of the company's revenues in these products, state-based contract strategy, the growth of its CenterWell business, and its integrated care delivery model, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
The number of Humana’s Medicare Advantage plans rated 4-star or higher will significantly decline in 2025. Humana has filed a lawsuit seeking to set aside and vacate the 2025 Star Ratings of its Medicare Advantage plans, but there is no assurance that the company will prevail in this lawsuit. If the company is not successful, the decline in Star Ratings will negatively impact its 2026 quality bonus payments from CMS and may also significantly adversely affect the company’s revenues, operating results, and cash flows. In addition, there can be no assurances the company will be successful in maintaining or improving its Star Ratings in future years.
If Humana, or the third-party service providers on which it relies, fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, to strategically maintain existing or implement new information systems, to protect Humana’s proprietary rights to its systems, or to defend against cyber-security attacks, contain such attacks when they occur, or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt the company's operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
Humana is involved in various legal actions, or disputes that could lead to legal actions (such as, among other things, provider contract disputes and qui tam litigation brought by individuals on behalf of the government), governmental and internal investigations, and routine internal review of business processes any of which, if resolved unfavorably to the company, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in its business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could also increase the company’s cost of doing business.
As a government contractor, Humana is exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect its business or its willingness or ability to participate in government healthcare programs including, among other things, loss of material government contracts; governmental audits and investigations; potential inadequacy of government determined payment rates; potential restrictions on profitability, including by comparison of profitability of the company’s Medicare Advantage business to non-Medicare Advantage business; or other changes in the governmental programs in which Humana participates. Changes to the risk-adjustment model utilized by CMS to adjust premiums paid to Medicare Advantage plans or retrospective recovery by CMS of previously paid premiums as a result of the final rule related to the risk adjustment data validation audit methodology published by CMS on January 30, 2023 (Final RADV Rule), which Humana believes fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence and violates the Administrative Procedure Act due to its failure to include a "Fee for Service Adjuster" could have a material adverse effect on the company's operating results, financial position and cash flows.
Humana's business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase the company's cost of doing business and have a material adverse effect on Humana’s results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting the company’s ability to expand into new markets, increasing the company’s medical and operating costs by, among other things, requiring a minimum benefit ratio on insured products, lowering the company’s Medicare payment rates and increasing the company’s expenses associated with a non-deductible health insurance industry fee and other assessments); the company’s financial position (including the company’s ability to maintain the value of its goodwill); and the company’s cash flows.
Humana’s failure to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

If Humana fails to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to its members, the company’s business may be adversely affected.
Humana faces significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to the Company’s success, and its failure to do so could adversely affect the Company’s businesses, operating results and/or future performance.
Humana’s pharmacy business is highly competitive and subjects it to regulations and supply chain risks in addition to those the company faces with its core health benefits businesses.
Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect Humana’s financial performance.
Humana’s ability to obtain funds from certain of its licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.
Downgrades in Humana’s debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Volatility or disruption in the securities and credit markets may significantly and adversely affect the value of our investment portfolio and the investment income that we derive from this portfolio.

A.Net losses associated with the company's non-consolidated minority interest investments.
B.Fully-insured dental membership as reported does not include Humana members that have a Medicare Advantage plan that includes an embedded dental benefit.
C.In certain circumstances, the company contracts with providers to accept financial risk for a defined set of Medicare Advantage membership. For these Downside Risk arrangements, the provider is measured against a medical expense ratio target and the company may share savings from reduction to the total cost of care of the defined membership. The result is a high level of engagement on the part of the provider. Under these arrangements, the company may contract with providers to accept partial, full, or global financial risk. In certain instances (capitated shared risk) of these arrangements, the company may choose to prepay these providers a monthly fixed-fee per member to coordinate substantially all of the medical care for their Medicare Advantage members assigned or attributed to their provider panel, including some health benefit administrative functions and claims processing.
D.A Path to Risk provider is one who has a high level of engagement and has contracted with the company to participate in an Upside Only/Shared Savings total cost of care arrangement and/or in one of Humana’s Quality Bonus programs (Model Practice), through which the company rewards the provider for achieving quality and utilization targets. Providers who are contracted in an Upside Only/Shared Savings arrangement may receive a portion of achieved surpluses when the actual cost of the medical services provided to patients assigned or attributed to their panel is less than the agreed upon medical expense targets. These contracts may also include a Downside Risk trigger (future date or membership threshold) which has not yet been met.
E.Per Member per Month (PMPM) shown reflects only Medicaid premiums and average Medicaid membership for the period; includes impact of dual eligible demonstration members.
F.Fully-insured commercial medical premiums also include stop-loss premiums associated with the commercial ASO product; for purposes of the PMPM metric, the commercial ASO stop-loss premiums have been excluded.
G.Specialty per member per month is computed based on reported specialty premiums and average fully-insured specialty membership for the period.
H.The amounts primarily reflect services revenues under the TRICARE East Region contract that generally are contracted on a per-member basis.
I.Computed based on average membership for the period (i.e. monthly ending membership during the period divided by the number of months in the period).

    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results
    Today, Humana reported fourth quarter Adjusted net loss per share of $2.16, consistent with expectations. Our results were underpinned by solid performance across the Insurance and CenterWell segments and are inclusive of additional investments in Stars to support long term value creation, as previously disclosed. The fourth quarter Insurance segment Adjusted benefit ratio of 91.9%, which includes a 20-basis point increase from incremental Stars investments, was consistent with expectations.
We are pleased to deliver full year 2024 Adjusted EPS and Insurance segment benefit ratio results in line with our initial guidance while also making incremental investments to position the company for long term success. In addition, we grew our individual MA membership over 250,000, or approximately 5%, while taking incremental pricing action to mitigate reimbursement pressure, and further expanded our Medicaid footprint which now covers 13 states. Finally, we advanced our integrated health strategy during 2024 with further expansion of our CenterWell platform, including the addition of 48 centers and nearly 100,000 patients in our Primary Care business representing growth of approximately 16% and 33%, respectively.
2025 Outlook
2025 represents a critical step on our margin expansion journey. Our 2025 MA pricing strategy was focused on resetting pricing and membership to more accurately reflect the funding and medical cost trend environment, improving underlying margins. We assessed the needs and benefit preferences of various consumer segments, the current and expected profitability of our offerings and greatest opportunities for attractive membership growth, making targeted plan and county exits if we did not see a path to sustainable profitability over a reasonable timeframe. Importantly, we remain confident in our expectation that our 2025 MA pricing will drive the intended underlying margin improvement contemplated in bids. From a membership perspective, we now anticipate full year Individual MA membership losses of approximately 550,000, inclusive of plan and county exits. See additional discussion of our 2025 MA membership expectations below.
The path to achieving compelling margins in individual MA is a multi-year process. We are investing in the near term to improve member outcomes and support operational excellence which, when combined with disciplined pricing, is expected to lead to high quality membership growth that will drive compelling returns for our shareholders over the long term. As previously discussed, we are planning to invest in 2025 to further strengthen our operating performance in areas including Stars, supporting clinical excellence and operating efficiencies, among others. These investments, while limiting margin expansion and earnings growth in the near term, position us for structural operational improvement, profitable growth and long-term value creation. Currently, we anticipate incremental investments of ‘a few hundred million’ dollars in these key drivers of the business in 2025. We will be disciplined and data driven in our investment decisions. As a result, the actual level of and timing of investments will be informed by early returns achieved and therefore may be adjusted throughout the year.

    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025
Accordingly, today we provided Adjusted EPS guidance for 2025 of ‘approximately $16.25’, inclusive of the investments described above, which is consistent with our previous commentary of ‘at least in line with 2024 results’. Our guidance assumes consolidated revenue in a range of $126 to $128 billion, reflecting approximately 8% year over year growth at the midpoint. Expected 2025 consolidated revenue growth is impacted by anticipated high single digit premium yield in our individual MA business, driven in large part by an increased direct subsidy due to the IRA, along with growth in Medicaid, Stand-Alone Part D (PDP), and agnostic activity in our CenterWell segment. These increases are partially offset by the expected reduction in individual MA membership, reimbursement headwinds in our Primary Care business, and a reduction in investment income.
With respect to medical costs, we anticipate a full year 2025 Insurance Segment benefit ratio in a range of 90.1% to 90.5% compared to the 2024 Adjusted ratio of 90.3%. Individual MA is expected to see an improving benefit ratio year over year, with plan exits, benefit changes, and favorable workday impacts more than offsetting the impact of IRA, our assumption of claims trend, the funding environment and incremental investments. In PDP, we expect the benefit ratio to increase several hundred basis points year over year driven by IRA changes. In addition, business mix puts upward pressure on the Insurance segment benefit ratio due to reductions in individual MA membership and growth in PDP and Medicaid. (see Appendix A) Finally, we anticipate our consolidated benefit ratio will be in line with the Insurance benefit ratio for the full year.
We anticipate the consolidated operating cost ratio to be in a range of 11.3% to 11.7% for 2025, an increase of 20 basis points at the mid-point from the Adjusted operating cost ratio of 11.3% in 2024. This increase is primarily driven by business mix changes, including within our CenterWell segment which runs a significantly higher operating cost ratio than our Insurance segment, along with the incremental investments described above, a portion of which is expected to impact operating expenses. These increases are partially offset by the impact of the IRA, as well as our ongoing focus on driving sustainable value creation from productivity and operating efficiencies. (see Appendix A)
Turning to earnings seasonality. As discussed above, the actual level of and timing of incremental investments will be informed by early returns achieved and therefore may be adjusted throughout the year. At this time, we expect first quarter earnings to be approximately 60% to 65% of expected full year 2025 Adjusted earnings and anticipate that the first quarter Insurance segment benefit ratio will be approximately 87.5%. The higher than historical earnings contribution expected in the first quarter is primarily driven by the impacts of the IRA, benefit changes (including the addition of deductibles), and favorable year over year workday seasonality.
Individual MA Membership
Turning to MA membership growth. We expect full-year individual MA membership losses of approximately 550,000 in 2025, compared to our previous commentary of ‘down a few hundred thousand members’. Membership losses are driven in part by our decision to exit certain unprofitable plans and counties, which impacted approximately 560,000 members. The greater than previously anticipated full year membership loss is expected to be largely driven by a slightly lower recapture rate for members affected by plan exits, along with higher than expected D-SNP attrition. Given the
4


    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025
change in special election period (SEP) rules for D-SNP members in 2025, there is more uncertainty in the rest of year membership activity than is typical. We believe we have been prudent in the assumptions utilized in our full year membership outlook and will monitor actual experience closely.
As we focus our efforts on driving high quality membership growth, we have been pleased to see strong year to date performance in markets with a concentration of our best performing value-based partners including Florida, Illinois and Texas (excluding plan exits). Further, we are seeing a higher than historical percentage of our non-DSNP sales coming from individuals switching from peer MA plans. This activity reflects the strength of Humana’s value proposition, which goes beyond benefit value and includes our best-in-class customer service and integrated health strategy oriented to driving better health outcomes.
Importantly, we remain confident in our pricing strategy as we prioritize serving membership which will drive sustainable, long-term value creation.
Group MA
We expect group MA membership to be relatively flat year over year as we maintain pricing discipline in a competitive market. Given the group MA pricing cycles, we anticipate continued margin pressure in 2025. We remain focused on improving Group MA margins through renewal cycles to reflect the current reimbursement levels and cost trends, with the opportunity to significantly improve performance through pricing action in 2026 and beyond.
Stand Alone Part D (PDP)
We were disciplined in the pricing and design of our PDP products for 2025 recognizing increased plan liability due to the IRA changes. Further, we are participating in the PDP Premium Stabilization Demonstration which limits the maximum amount of member premium increase, while narrowing the risk corridors and increasing the direct subsidy paid to plan sponsors.
We now expect net PDP membership growth of approximately 200,000 versus our previous expectation of largely flat membership. The improved expectations are largely driven by shifting competitive dynamics.
Turning to our PDP margin outlook, while we priced for positive margins in 2025, we are taking a conservative approach to guidance given the magnitude of IRA changes implemented this year. We will closely monitor PDP performance over the course of the year and adjust expectations as appropriate based on performance.
Finally, we are enhancing enterprise value from our PDP plans by driving increased mail order pharmacy usage and conversions to MA.
Medicaid
In our Medicaid business, we are successfully expanding our footprint organically, including our recent “intent to award” wins in Georgia and Texas (subject to clearing state protest process), which brought our total awarded footprint to 13 states. We look forward to begin serving members in Virginia later this year, bringing our total Medicaid active
5


    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025
footprint to 10 states, with the Michigan Fully Integrated Dual Eligible (FIDE) contract on track to be implemented in January of 2026 driving our total to 11 active states. While the Texas and Georgia awards remain under protest, we are optimistic that these programs will move forward in 2026. Further, we have a bid outstanding in Illinois and are investing in our business development capabilities. We are pursuing priority states and advancing our Medicaid capabilities and growth prospects – leaning into enterprise innovation, existing community presence, and best practices. For context, our recent organic growth is unprecedented within the Medicaid industry, where incumbent MCOs have historically had a strong advantage over new entrants. In the last two years, Humana has launched or been awarded Medicaid plans in eight new states.
From a membership perspective, we currently anticipate growth of 175,000 to 250,000 members in 2025, representing an increase of approximately 16% at the midpoint, largely driven by the expected implementation of the Virginia contract and an additional membership allocation in Kentucky.
While we are excited about our historical and prospective growth opportunities, we are also focused on ensuring both operational and financial discipline. Notably, six of our ten active states have been operating less than 3 years with this cohort comprising approximately 45% of our 2025 Medicaid revenue; typically, it takes a newly added state a few years to reach break-even and eventually industry-standard margins. Florida is our most mature contract and has margins consistent with industry standards. We expect margin progression to align with industry levels as our business mix matures. In addition, we are working closely with our state and industry partners to ensure 1) rates reflect the acuity level of members maintaining coverage, and 2) rates in newly implemented states are updated to reflect recent trend experience. States have been generally receptive and collaborative. All in, we anticipate modest improvement in our Medicaid margin in 2025.
Tricare
Humana Military successfully transitioned to the new T-5 contract, which went live on January 1st, 2025.  We are meeting or exceeding contract expectations in critical areas such as access to care, beneficiary service, enrollment, billing, and referrals.  We are pleased with our ongoing collaborative partnership with the Defense Health Agency and honored to be able to serve approximately 4.6 million active-duty military, families, and retirees in the TRICARE East Region in 2025.

CenterWell
    Primary Care
Our multi payer Primary Care platform is key to our integrated value-based care strategy, creating value for our members and patients, and is expected to meaningfully contribute to enterprise earnings over time. We intend to continue to scale our platform through a combination of new center adds, patient growth and expansion of our IPA business, as we look to strategically grow our IPA affiliate footprint in additional states where we already operate centers.
6


    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025
Our IPA business allows the Primary Care Organization (PCO) to support affiliate practices through a multi payer portfolio of senior value-based contracts, enabling these practices to succeed in value-based care by leveraging our data and analytics infrastructure, clinical programs, and engagement model. Further, the current regulatory and funding environment has created opportunities as certain smaller provider groups have challenges adapting to the dynamic environment. We have been opportunistic, focusing on high value transactions in 2024, as evidenced by our lease agreement with Walmart to take over certain Walmart Health locations, as well as the addition of 41 centers in the fourth quarter through multiple highly attractive acquisitions. We anticipate exploring similar opportunities in 2025. All in, we expect to add approximately 20 to 30 centers in 2025, with a focus on scaling our Primary Care portfolio in key geographies.
From a patient panel perspective, we expect 2025 net patient growth of 30,000 to 50,000, reflecting approximately 10% growth at the midpoint, driven by organic growth, M&A, and additional growth with Original Medicare as a part of our ACO Reach program. We are excited about the recent launch of a new patient onboarding experience where new PCO patients that are also Humana health plan members have a more simplified onboarding experience – both prior to and during their visit to a center, eliminating paperwork and friction for both the patient and the provider. This is one example of our broader efforts to create a simpler experience through our integrated health strategy, contributing to 120 basis point improvement in voluntary termination rate (VTR) for Humana health plan members who are seen by the PCO across all markets.
Year-over-year we anticipate largely flat margins in our PCO business.  The headwinds created by the continued phase in of v28 and addition of centers at various stages of maturation are expected to be offset by (1) advancement of our ongoing v28 mitigation activities, and (2) further maturation of our centers which are progressing through the J curve.   We still anticipate we will largely mitigate the ultimate impact of the risk model changes over the three-year phase in through a multi-pronged plan including numerous operational efficiencies such as centralizing and streamlining administrative functions, standardizing the clinic operating model, and improving clinician productivity to increase capacity.
Home
In the Home, we expect further expansion of our value-based home care models. During 2025, OneHome will continue to pursue novel value-based home health care with the expectation of growing members in some form of value-based home health model by greater than 15% through innovative payment models and additional expansion of our CenterWell partnerships. These arrangements align incentives between the health plan and the home health provider, driving better coordination, lower cost, and a better experience and health outcomes for the patient. As an example, through OneHome’s collaborative value-based model with CenterWell Primary Care in Florida and Texas in 2024, CenterWell Home Health successfully drove a relative reduction in length of stay of greater than 15% and an absolute decrease in recertification rates by greater than 10% versus baseline while maintaining consistent clinical outcomes performance, such as 60-day admission rates.
7


    Exhibit 99.3     
Humana Inc. Fourth Quarter 2024 Prepared Management Remarks 2/11/2025
Within our CenterWell Home Health fee for service business, we anticipate a ‘mid to high’ single digit increase in home health admissions year over year. Further, we continue our comprehensive initiative to drive productivity and efficiency within our home operating model to offset reimbursement pressure. Our efforts are aimed at reducing overhead both through simplifying our home health organizational structure and centralizing and streamlining key functions. Examples of this important work include consolidating branch locations to reduce operating expense while maintaining broad geographic coverage, introducing technology to simplify the referral process, and the launching of AI solutions to improve clinical documentation and reduce administrative tasks for our clinicians.
Pharmacy
Our CenterWell Pharmacy business expects to sustain industry leading mail order penetration for Humana health plan members in 2025. In addition, we are focused on expanding our agnostic client base and anticipate strong growth in our agnostic volume this year driven by new and existing client growth.
Within Humana Pharmacy Solutions, our Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) business, we remain focused on providing convenient and affordable access to medications for Humana health plan members. As a reminder, our PBM fees are not linked to drug prices. Further, our PBM activity is intercompany and is reported and eliminated within our Insurance segment.
Net Investment Income
In 2025, we anticipate a high single digit percentage reduction in investment income driven by the cumulative impact of rate cuts in 2024 and further rate reductions expected throughout this year. In addition, we expect interest expense to be largely consistent year over year. Collectively, net investment income is expected to be down approximately $100 million year over year.
Capital Deployment
We will remain prudent in our near-term capital deployment approach as we fully assess our Stars mitigation plans and until we have better visibility into the final 2026 MA funding environment and our MA pricing strategy. As a result, our current 2025 outlook does not contemplate share repurchase activity. We will re-evaluate our capital deployment plans throughout the year, taking a balanced approach to evaluating capital investments and returns.
Further, we are evaluating optimal timing to execute on the call option for the first cohort of 18 clinics built in 2020 as part of the WCAS joint venture. The call period begins June 30, 2025, and continues for one year.
Finally, we intend to maintain our dividend flat year over year on a per share basis throughout 2025.
Stars Program
As previously shared, we are focused on returning to an industry leading Stars position as quickly as possible and have initiatives underway to improve performance for measures that have not kept pace with the industry.  Areas of

focus include enhancing member and provider engagement strategies and incentive programs, improving customer experience, optimizing vendor relationships, and strengthening technology integrations to support operational excellence.
2026 Stars (payment year 2027) results will be released by CMS in October 2025, with calendar year 2024 as the measurement period for most measures.   As you know, our overall 2026 Star ratings will be determined by (1) our performance and (2) peer performance and the resulting industry cut points.  With respect to our performance, given the higher than anticipated industry cut points for 2025 Stars (payment year 2026), we invested in the final months of 2024 to accelerate our performance on impactable 2026 Star measures through year end and were pleased to see our efforts yield positive results. However, the industry cut points remain unknown and we had a limited timeframe to impact results post receipt of the 2025 Star results. As a result, risk remains regarding our overall 2026 Star results. 
Looking ahead to 2027 Stars (payment year 2028), the measurement period is calendar year 2025 for most measures.  We set our targets with the goal of having an appropriate buffer between our performance and the expected industry cut points to provide increased confidence in our ability to recover to an industry leading position. We are working to ensure we achieve the performance targets set for all 2027 Stars measures, and we have enhanced our internal governance and performance reporting to increase visibility across the enterprise.
Closing
We had a solid finish to 2024 in a dynamic environment and were pleased to provide initial 2025 Adjusted EPS guidance consistent with our previous commentary. Looking forward, we remain committed to returning to industry leading Stars performance and achieving individual MA pretax margin of ‘at least 3%’. 2025 represents a critical step on this margin expansion journey. We reset our MA pricing and membership to improve underlying margins and are investing to improve member outcomes and support operational excellence, positioning the company for long-term success. In addition, we are advancing our Medicaid and CenterWell strategies which are expected to drive increased earnings contribution over the mid and longer term as they mature through their respective J curves.
We have conviction that the strong core fundamentals and growth outlook for MA and value-based care remain intact and that Humana’s platform, unique focus on MA, and expanding CenterWell and Medicaid capabilities will allow us to compete effective, drive better outcomes for our members and patients, and deliver compelling shareholder value over the long term.
We appreciate your ongoing support and look forward to providing further updates in the coming months.

Celeste Mellet, Chief Financial Officer
