- UnitedHealth Group’s third quarter 2019 revenues grew $3.8 billion or 6.7 percent year-over-year to $60.4 billion, led by double-digit percentage revenue growth for Optum. Year-to-date revenues grew 8 percent or $13.4 billion to $181.3 billion year-over-year.
- Third quarter earnings from operations grew $424 million year-over-year or 9.2 percent to $5.0 billion led by double-digit growth rates across each of the Optum businesses. Adjusted net earnings of $3.88 per share increased 13.8 percent, bringing year-to-date adjusted net earnings per share to $11.22, a 16.9 percent growth rate year-over-year.
- Cash flows from operations were $3.2 billion in the quarter and $12.3 billion or 1.2x net income year-to-date.
- Third quarter medical cost trends remained in line with expectations, with the health insurance tax deferral driving the 140 basis point year-over-year increase in the medical care ratio to 82.4 percent. Favorable medical reserve development was $140 million in the quarter, with $80 million related to 2019 and $60 million related to prior periods. Days claims payable of 49.3 days compared to 48.6 in the second quarter 2019 and 50.5 in the third quarter 2018.
- The third quarter operating cost ratio improved 20 basis points from the same period last year to 14.8 percent, reflecting the deferral of the health insurance tax and continued effects of operating cost productivity improvements, net of the effect of business mix changes and continued investments in innovation, service and growth.
- Third quarter dividends of $1.08 per share increased 20 percent year-over-year to $1 billion. The Company repurchased 2.6 million shares for $600 million in the quarter, bringing year-to-date purchases to 20.8 million shares for $5.1 billion.
- Return on equity of 26.2 percent in the period continued to reflect the Company’s efficient capital base and strong earnings profile.

UnitedHealthcare grew to serve 415,000 more people with medical benefits over the past year driven by growth in commercial and Medicare Advantage membership, and with greater focus on serving people with higher acuity needs. This led to revenue growth of 4.7 percent, or $2.2 billion, to $48.1 billion in the quarter. Third quarter 2019 earnings from operations at UnitedHealthcare grew by 3.8 percent to $2.7 billion driven by revenue growth and strong cost disciplines, offset by an extra day in the quarter and the impact of the health insurance tax deferral. Year-to-date, earnings from operations grew 13 percent.
- Third quarter 2019 revenues at UnitedHealthcare Employer & Individual grew $557 million year-over-year to $14.3 billion, as UnitedHealthcare served just over 1 million more people with commercial benefits in the past year.

- Revenues at UnitedHealthcare Community & State decreased $384 million to $10.7 billion in third quarter 2019, as third quarter membership declined 665,000 people year-over-year due to proactive market withdrawals as well as states balancing carriers and managing eligibility.

The words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “should” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These statements may contain information about financial prospects, economic conditions and trends and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those that management expects, depending on the outcome of certain factors including: our ability to effectively estimate, price for and manage medical costs; new or changes in existing health care laws or regulations, or their enforcement or application; the DOJ’s legal action relating to the risk adjustment submission matter; our ability to maintain and achieve improvement in quality scores impacting revenue; reductions in revenue or delays to cash flows received under government programs; changes in Medicare, the CMS star ratings program or the application of risk adjustment data validation audits; cyber-attacks, other privacy/data security incidents, or our failure to comply with related regulations; risks and uncertainties associated with the pharmacy benefits management industry; competitive pressures; changes in or challenges to our public sector contract awards; our ability to contract on competitive terms with physicians, hospitals and other service providers; failure to achieve targeted operating cost productivity improvements; increases in costs and other liabilities associated with litigation, government investigations, audits or reviews; failure to manage successfully our strategic alliances or complete or receive anticipated benefits of strategic transactions; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; downgrades in our credit ratings; our investment portfolio performance; impairment of our goodwill and intangible assets; failure to maintain effective and efficient information systems or if our technology products do not operate as intended; and our ability to obtain sufficient funds from our regulated subsidiaries or from external financings to fund our obligations, maintain our debt to total capital ratio at targeted levels, maintain our quarterly dividend payment cycle, or continue repurchasing shares of our common stock. This above list is not exhaustive. We discuss these matters, and certain risks that may affect our business operations, financial condition and results of operations more fully in our filings with the SEC, including our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. By their nature, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or quantify. Actual results may vary materially from expectations expressed or implied in this document or any of our prior communications.
