First Quarter 2021 Highlights and Other Recent Developments:

● Net revenue increased 3.5% percent over the first quarter of 2020 to $1.16 billion.

● Net income increased by $29.6 million over the first quarter of 2020 to $28.5 million.

● Segment profit increased 80.6% percent over the first quarter of 2020 to $75.1 million.

● Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share were $35.5 million and $1.33 as compared to the prior year period of $6.0 million and $0.25, respectively.

● On March 18, 2021, Magellan announced that it had been selected to, once again, serve as a contractor for the Military and Family Life Counseling program, which provides counseling for adults and children in the military community.

● On March 31, 2021, Magellan’s shareholders adopted the plan of merger with Centene Corporation (“Centene”). The Merger Agreement provides for the acquisition by Centene at a price of $95 per share of Magellan common stock in cash. The Company continues to expect the transaction to close during the second half of 2021.

“I am pleased with our first quarter 2021 results, which reflect the progress of the collective efforts of our associates to transform, innovate and grow our businesses. Our pipeline of potential new business opportunities continues to build as customers recognize the growing value of our solutions in the market,” said Kenneth Fasola, chief executive officer, Magellan Health.

“We are also making significant progress in our integration planning efforts with Centene, and we remain enthusiastic about the transaction,” continued Fasola. “We look forward to a new chapter of growth and innovation as a payer services business operating independently under Centene’s Health Care Enterprises division.”

Net Revenue

Net revenue from continuing operations was $1.16 billion for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 3.5% compared to first quarter of 2020 primarily due to growth in the Healthcare segment, partially offset by a modest decline in the Pharmacy Management segment created by the decision to exit Medicare Part D as a plan sponsor.

Segment Profit

Segment profit from continuing operations was $75.1 million for first quarter of 2021, compared to $41.6 million in the first quarter of 2020.

● Healthcare segment profit was $41.3 million, representing an increase of $5.7 million from 2020. This year-over-year increase was primarily driven by net business growth partially off-set by an increase in corporate allocations.

● Pharmacy Management segment profit was $43.7 million, representing an increase of $22.8 million from 2020. This year-over-year increase was primarily driven by revenue growth across specialty, government and commercial PBM, improved gross margin, proceeds from the settlement of a legal matter, and the exit from Medicare Part D. These gains were partially off-set by an increase in corporate allocations and start-up costs associated with a new contract implementation.

● Corporate segment costs inclusive of eliminations, but excluding stock compensation expense, totaled $9.9 million, as compared to $14.9 million in 2020. This decrease was primarily driven by the reduction of stranded corporate overhead expenses associated with discontinued operations in the prior year quarter.

Other Items

The Company recorded a special charge of $1.2 million during the first quarter of 2021 primarily associated with non-cash lease termination and abandonment costs for planned reductions to the Company’s real estate footprint and severance related to the transformation operational initiatives.

The loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the first quarter of 2021 was $0.7 million, as compared to income from discontinued operations of $19.3 million during the first quarter of 2020. This decrease is due to the sale of Magellan Complete Care business (“MCC Business”) to Molina Healthcare, Inc. (“Molina”) effective December 31, 2020. Ongoing discontinued operations post the closing of this transaction reflect transaction related costs as well as changes to accounting estimates associated with this divestiture.

Cash Flow & Balance Sheet

Cash flow used in operating activities from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021, was $77.9 million, as compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This year over year change is largely due to unfavorable changes in working capital and increased tax payments.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s unrestricted cash and investments totaled $934.4 million, as compared to $1,148.8 million at December 31, 2020. This decrease is largely due to voluntary term loan repayments of $100 million in March and unfavorable changes in working capital. Approximately $50.0 million of the unrestricted cash and investments at March 31, 2021 is related to excess capital and undistributed earnings held at regulated entities of continuing operations.

Earnings Conference Call

Due to the pending transaction with Centene, the Company is not hosting a conference call in conjunction with its first quarter 2021 earnings release and does not expect to do so in future quarters. Please direct any questions regarding this earnings release to Magellan’s Investor Relations or Media contacts.

Basis of Presentation

In addition to results determined under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), Magellan provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful in assessing the Company’s performance. Following is a description of these important non-GAAP measures.

Segment profit is equal to net revenue less the sum of cost of care, cost of goods sold, direct service costs and other operating expenses, and includes income from unconsolidated subsidiaries and the settlement of a legal matter, but excludes segment profit or loss from non-controlling interests held by other parties, stock compensation expense, special charges or benefits, as well as changes in the fair value of contingent consideration recorded in relation to acquisitions.

Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share reflect certain adjustments made for acquisitions to exclude non-cash stock compensation expense resulting from restricted stock purchases by sellers, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, amortization of identified acquisition intangibles, as well as impairment of identified acquisition intangibles, special charges, and any impact related to the sale of MCC.

Included in the tables issued with this press release are the reconciliations from GAAP measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures.

MCC Business Reflected as Discontinued Operations

Due to the sale of the MCC Business to Molina, the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented reflect the MCC Business as discontinued operations.
