Safe Harbor Statement (1 of 2)
Safe Harbor Statement Under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:
This document contains certain forward-looking information about us that is intended to be covered by the safe harbor
for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements are statements that are not generally historical facts. Words such as “expect(s),” “feel(s),” “believe(s),”
“will,” “may,” “anticipate(s),” “intend,” “estimate,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-
looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. These statements include, but are not limited to,
statements regarding our offer to acquire Cigna Corporation (“Cigna”), our financing of the proposed transaction, its
expected future performance (including expected results of operations and financial guidance), the combined
company’s future financial condition, operating results, strategy and plans, 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. Such statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control, that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking
information and statements. These risks and uncertainties include: those discussed and identified in our public filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC; those relating to our proposal to acquire Cigna, as detailed
from time to time in our and/or Cigna’s filings with the SEC; increased government participation in, or regulation or
taxation of health benefits and managed care operations, including, but not limited to, the impact of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, or Health Care
Reform; trends in health care costs and utilization rates; our ability to secure sufficient premium rates including
regulatory approval for and implementation of such rates; our participation in the federal and state health insurance
exchanges under Health Care Reform, which have experienced and continue to experience challenges due to
implementation of initial and phased-in provisions of Health Care Reform, and which entail uncertainties associated
with the mix and volume of business, particularly in our Individual and Small Group markets, that could negatively
impact the adequacy of our premium rates and which may not be sufficiently offset by the risk apportionment
provisions of Health Care Reform; our ability to contract with providers consistent with past practice; competitor
pricing below market trends of increasing costs; reduced enrollment, as well as a negative change in our health care
product mix; risks and uncertainties regarding Medicare and Medicaid programs, including those related to non-
compliance with the complex regulations imposed thereon and funding risks with respect to revenue received from
participation therein; a downgrade in our financial strength ratings; litigation and investigations targeted at our
industry and our ability to resolve litigation and investigations within estimates; medical malpractice or professional
liability claims or other risks related to health care services provided by our subsidiaries; our ability to …

Safe Harbor Statement (2 of 2)
Safe Harbor Statement Under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 Continued:
… repurchase shares of our common stock and pay dividends on our common stock due to the adequacy of our cash
flow and earnings and other considerations; non-compliance by any party with the Express Scripts, Inc. pharmacy
benefit management services agreement, which could result in financial penalties, our inability to meet customer
demands, and sanctions imposed by governmental entities, including the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services;
events that result in negative publicity for us or the health benefits industry; failure to effectively maintain and
modernize our information systems and e-business organization and to maintain good relationships with third party
vendors for information system resources; events that may negatively affect our licenses with the Blue Cross and Blue
Shield Association; possible impairment of the value of our intangible assets if future results do not adequately support
goodwill and other intangible assets; intense competition to attract and retain employees; unauthorized disclosure of
member or employee sensitive or confidential information, including the impact and outcome of investigations,
inquiries, claims and litigation related to the cyber attack we reported in February 2015; changes in the economic and
market conditions, as well as regulations that may negatively affect our investment portfolios and liquidity; possible
restrictions in the payment of dividends by our subsidiaries and increases in required minimum levels of capital and the
potential negative effect from our substantial amount of outstanding indebtedness; general risks associated with
mergers and acquisitions; various laws and provisions in our governing documents that may prevent or discourage
takeovers and business combinations; future public health epidemics and catastrophes; and general economic
downturns. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements
we make in this communication are set forth in other reports or documents that we may file from time to time with the
SEC, and include, but are not limited to: (i) the ultimate outcome of any possible transaction between us and Cigna,
including the possibilities that Cigna will reject a transaction with us, (ii) the ultimate outcome and results of
integrating the operations of us and Cigna if a transaction is consummated, (iii) the ability to obtain regulatory
approvals and meet other closing conditions to any possible transaction, including the necessary shareholder and
stockholder approvals, and (iv) the risks and uncertainties detailed by Cigna with respect to its business as described in
its reports and documents filed with the SEC. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on
our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. Except to the extent
otherwise required by federal securities law, we do not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures in our SEC reports.

GAAP Reconciliation

We have referenced "Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share" (or “Adjusted EPS”), a non-GAAP measure, in this document.  This non-
GAAP measure is intended to aid investors and analysts when comparing our financial results among periods. Management also uses
this measure as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, forecasting future operating periods and setting incentive
compensation targets.  A reconciliation of this measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP
is presented below.  For additional details, refer to our earnings results press releases and SEC filings, including but not limited to our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months
ended March 31, 2015, available at www.antheminc.com.
