Quarter Highlights
“We are pleased with our third quarter and year-to-date performance. With the backdrop of a continuing pandemic, we executed well, delivered solid operating earnings, and continued to drive our growth strategy,” said Joseph Zubretsky, president and CEO of Molina Healthcare. “The Nevada contract award and the AgeWell acquisition reflect that the components of our growth engine are well established and working.”
New York Acquisitions On October 7, 2021, the Company announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the Medicaid Managed Long Term Care business of AgeWell New York. As of August 31, 2021, AgeWell served approximately 13,000 managed long-term services and supports members, with full-year 2020 premium revenue of approximately $700 million.
On October 25, 2021, the Company announced the closing of its acquisition of Affinity Health Plan.
Premium Revenue Premium revenue was approximately $6.8 billion for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of 43% compared to the third quarter of 2020. The higher premium revenue reflects increased organic membership in all lines of business, along with the impact of acquisitions.
Net Income Net income for the third quarter was $143 million, or $2.46 per diluted share, compared to $185 million, or $3.10 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted net income for the third quarter was $164 million, or $2.83 per diluted share, compared to $201 million, or $3.36 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2020.
The year-over-year comparison reflects the negative impact from the net effect of COVID in the third quarter of 2021. In contrast, the prior year third quarter was positively impacted by the net effect of COVID.
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $556 million, or $9.51 per diluted share, compared to $639 million, or $10.65 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Adjusted net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $623 million, or $10.66 per diluted share, compared to $670 million, or $11.15 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Medical Care Ratio The consolidated MCR for the third quarter was 88.9%, compared to 85.9% in the third quarter of 2020. The net effect of COVID increased the consolidated MCR by approximately 110 basis points and impacted all three lines of business. In the prior year, the net effect of COVID was negligible to slightly positive.
A year-over-year comparison is less meaningful than it would be in a typical year due to pandemic related effects. Due to those anomalous effects, a sequential comparison of MCR is more relevant.
On a sequential basis, the consolidated MCR for the third quarter was 88.9%, compared to 88.4% in the second quarter of 2021. The net effect of COVID increased the consolidated MCR by approximately 110 basis points in the second and third quarters of 2021 and was negligible in the first quarter of 2021.
General and Administrative Expense Ratio The G&A ratio for the third quarter was 7.5%, compared to 7.3% for the third quarter of 2020. The adjusted G&A ratio for the third quarter was 7.3% and was consistent with the third quarter of 2020 reflecting disciplined cost management, and growth investments.
Balance Sheet Cash and investments at the parent company amounted to $703 million as of September 30, 2021, compared to $644 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase was due to dividends received from the regulated health plan subsidiaries in the quarter.
In September 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $500 million and continuing through December 31, 2022. This program supersedes the stock repurchase program approved by our Board in September 2020. As of October 27, 2021, no shares have been purchased under this program.
Cash Flow Operating cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $1.5 billion, and was higher compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to growth in operations and the net impact of timing differences in governmental receivables and payables.
2021 Guidance The Company expects its full year 2021 total revenue to be no less than $27.5 billion, an increase of approximately 42% from its full year 2020.
Premium revenue for the full year 2021 is expected to be no less than $26.5 billion, an increase of approximately 45% from the full year 2020.
The Company reaffirmed its full year 2021 adjusted earnings per share guidance to be no less than $13.25 per share.
Guidance reflects:
The impact of the Cigna Texas membership acquisition is not included in guidance. The Cigna Texas membership acquisition is expected to close in January of 2022.

MOLINA HEALTHCARE, INC. CHANGE IN MEDICAL CLAIMS AND BENEFITS PAYABLE (Dollars in millions)
The Company’s claims liabilities include additional reserves to account for moderately adverse conditions based on historical experience and other factors including, but not limited to, variations in claims payment patterns, changes in utilization and cost trends, known outbreaks of disease, and large claims. The Company’s reserving methodology is consistently applied across all periods presented. The amounts displayed for “Components of medical care costs related to: Prior year” represent the amounts by which the original estimates of claims and benefits payable at the beginning of the year were more than the actual liabilities based on information (principally the payment of claims) developed since those liabilities were first reported. The following table presents the components of the change in medical claims and benefits payable for the periods indicated:

MOLINA HEALTHCARE, INC. RECONCILIATION OF UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (In millions, except per diluted share amounts)
The Company believes that certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures are useful supplemental measures to investors in comparing the Company’s performance to the performance of other public companies in the health care industry. The non-GAAP financial measures are also used internally to enable management to assess the Company’s performance consistently over time. These non-GAAP financial measures, presented below, should be considered as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or superior to, GAAP measures.
Adjustments represent additions and deductions to GAAP net income as indicated in the table below, which include the non-cash impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, and the impact of certain expenses and other items that management believes are not indicative of longer-term business trends and operations.
Adjusted G&A Ratio represents the GAAP G&A ratio, recognizing adjustments.
Adjusted net income represents GAAP net income recognizing the adjustments, net of tax. The Company believes that adjusted net income is helpful to investors in assessing the Company’s financial performance.
Adjusted net income per diluted share represents adjusted net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis.
Adjusted after-tax margin represents adjusted net income, divided by total revenue.
