CONSOLIDATED HIGHLIGHTS
Earnings Per Share: GAAP net income was $7.39 per share in the first quarter, including net negative adjustment items of $0.86 per share. Adjusted net income was $8.25* per share, up 17.7% from $7.01 in the same period a year ago.
| * | Please refer to the GAAP reconciliation tables on page 13. |
Membership: Medical enrollment totaled approximately 46.8 million members as of March 31, 2022, an increase of 3.3 million, or 7.5 percent from the prior year quarter. Government Business enrollment increased by 2.1 million lives compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by organic growth in the Medicaid business, aided by the suspension of eligibility recertification efforts in our markets, the acquisitions of MMM and Paramount Advantage, the launch of HealthyBlue in North Carolina, and organic growth in Medicare Advantage. Commercial & Specialty Business enrollment increased by 1.1 million year over year primarily driven by strong sales in both fee-based and risk-based businesses.
During the first quarter of 2022, medical enrollment increased by 1.4 million lives driven by organic growth in our Commercial fee-based business, the acquisition of Paramount Advantage’s Medicaid members in Ohio, and growth in Individual Medicare Advantage enrollment.
Operating Revenue: Operating revenue was $37.9 billion in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $5.8 billion, or 18.0 percent, from the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by higher premium revenue due to membership growth in Medicaid, the acquisitions of MMM and Paramount, growth in Medicare Advantage and Commercial risk-based membership, and premium rate increases to cover overall cost trends. The increase was further attributable to growth in pharmacy product revenue within IngenioRx.
Benefit Expense Ratio: The benefit expense ratio was 86.1 percent in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 50 basis points versus the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by the continued shift in mix of business, as Anthem has grown Government Business, which has a higher benefit expense ratio, faster than the Commercial & Specialty risk business.
Medical claims reserves established at December 31, 2021, developed in line with the Company’s expectations as of the first quarter of 2022.
Days in Claims Payable: Days in Claims Payable was 46.9 days as of March 31, 2022, an increase of 1.7 days from December 31, 2021 and unchanged compared to March 31, 2021.
SG&A Expense Ratio: The SG&A expense ratio was 11.5 percent in the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of 70 basis points from 12.2 percent in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by operating expense leverage associated with growth in operating revenue, partially offset by increased spend to support growth.
Operating Cash Flow: Operating cash flow was approximately $2.5 billion, or 1.4 times net income in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $36 million as compared to the prior year quarter. The year-on-year increase was driven by an increase in net income, partially offset by the impact of working capital changes.
Share Repurchase Program: During the first quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.2 million shares of its common stock for $545 million, at a weighted average price of $453.32. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $3.6 billion of Board-approved share repurchase authorization remaining.
2
Cash Dividend: During the first quarter of 2022, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.28 per share, representing a distribution of cash totaling $309 million.
On April 19, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors declared a second quarter 2022 dividend to shareholders of $1.28 per share. The second quarter dividend is payable on June 24, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 10, 2022.
Investment Portfolio & Capital Position: During the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net losses of $151 million. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded net losses of $4 million. These amounts are excluded from adjusted earnings per share.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s net unrealized loss position in the investment portfolio was $755 million, consisting primarily of fixed maturity securities. As of March 31, 2022 cash and investments at the parent company totaled approximately $1.4 billion.

Commercial & Specialty Business: Operating gain in the Commercial & Specialty Business segment totaled $1,082 million in the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of $186 million from $1,268 million in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the net unfavorable effect of COVID and increased spend to support growth and innovation. These impacts were partially offset by the positive contribution from growth in risk-based and fee-based membership.
Government Business: Operating gain in the Government Business segment was $789 million in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $311 million from $478 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of MMM, membership growth in Medicaid, improved risk revenue in Medicare, and out-of-period items in Medicaid. These impacts were partially offset by increased spend in support of growth.
IngenioRx: Operating gain was $398 million in the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of $9 million from $407 million in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the non-recurrence of a favorable out-of-period adjustment in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by the impact of higher prescription volume resulting from growth in integrated medical and pharmacy members.
4
Other: The Company reported an operating gain of $178 million in the Other segment for the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $170 million from $8 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by improved performance in the Diversified Business Group’s Affiliated and Unaffiliated earnings and the acquisition of myNEXUS in April 2021. This increase in operating gain was further driven by changes in unallocated corporate costs year-over-year.
5
Basis of Presentation
| 1. | Operating revenue and operating gain/loss are the key measures used by management to evaluate performance in each of its reporting segments, allocate resources, set incentive compensation targets and to forecast future operating performance. Operating gain/loss is calculated as total operating revenue less benefit expense, cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expense. It does not include net investment income, net gains/losses on financial instruments, interest expense, amortization of other intangible assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt or income taxes, as these items are managed in a corporate shared service environment and are not the responsibility of operating segment management. Refer to page 13 for the GAAP reconciliation tables. |
| 2. | Operating margin is defined as operating gain divided by operating revenue. |

A reconciliation of Operating Revenue to Total Revenue is set forth in the Consolidated Statements of Income herein. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, together with a reconciliation of reportable segments operating gain to income before income tax expense, is reported below.

Words such as “expect,” “feel,” “believe,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements include, but are not limited to: financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions; statements regarding plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations, products and services; and statements regarding future performance.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward- looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. You are also urged to carefully review and consider the various risks and other disclosures discussed in our reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors that affect our business. Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.
