AMERIGROUP Reports Q2 Net Income of $49.6 Million or $0.94 per Diluted Share, Including $0.43 per Diluted Share Positive Impact from Tax Adjustment

Posted on: Friday, 31 July 2009, 05:00 CDT

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., July 31, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AMERIGROUP Corporation (NYSE: AGP) today announced that net income for the second quarter of 2009 was $49.6 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, versus a loss of $164.0 million, or $3.10 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2008.

Second quarter 2009 results were positively impacted by a tax adjustment of $0.43 per diluted share related to litigation settled in 2008, partially offset by elevated health benefits expenses. Excluding the tax adjustment, second quarter 2009 net income would have been $27.2 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, versus second quarter 2008 net income of $35.2 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, excluding the impact of the litigation settlement recorded in that period.

The Company is updating its guidance for the full-year 2009 to $2.90 to $3.05 per diluted share from the previously announced range of $2.70 to $2.85. The revision to guidance includes the tax adjustment, as well as the impact of elevated outpatient medical costs.

Second Quarter Highlights include:

• Membership increased 66,000 members, or 4.0%, to approximately 1.7 million at the end of the quarter from the first quarter of 2009. Risk membership increased 10.0% or 156,000 from the second quarter of 2008.
• Total revenues were $1.3 billion, a 5.0% increase over the first quarter of 2009 and a 15.6% increase over the second quarter of 2008.
• Health benefits expenses were 85.9% of premium revenues.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses were 7.5% of total revenues.
• The second quarter income tax expense reflects the impact of the tax adjustment of $0.43 per diluted share.
• Cash used in operations was $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
• Unregulated cash and investments were $253.8 million, as of June 30, 2009.
• Medical claims payable, as of June 30, 2009, totaled $563.0 million compared to $570.4 million, as of March 31, 2009.
• The Company is updating its 2009 annual guidance to $2.90 to $3.05 per diluted share.
• The Company repaid approximately $26.2 million of debt during the quarter and the debt to total capital ratio decreased to 20.8%, as of June 30, 2009, from 23.0%, as of March 31, 2009.
• The Company repurchased approximately 745,000 shares of its common stock during the second quarter for approximately $22.2 million.
  

"In the quarter, we experienced membership gains in most markets, a continuation of a trend that we saw in the first quarter. Significant increases in the states' Medicaid enrollment are being driven by macroeconomic conditions," said James G. Carlson, AMERIGROUP Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We also experienced higher medical costs, which we believe started in the latter part of the first quarter of 2009 and continued into the second quarter.

"While we believe that new members are contributing to this increase, our most recent information indicates that costs have risen for both new and existing members, notably in outpatient services. In response, we are adapting initiatives to address the specific drivers of these costs," Carlson continued. "I am confident in the ability of our management team to respond appropriately to this challenge, as we have done successfully in the past."

Premium Revenues

Premium revenues for the second quarter of 2009 increased 17.0% to $1.3 billion compared to $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2008. Sequentially, premium revenues increased $67.4 million, or 5.5%, compared with the first quarter of 2009. The sequential increase primarily reflected membership gains in the TANF population across all markets.

Investment Income and Other Revenues

Second quarter investment income and other revenues were $6.5 million versus $18.5 million in the second quarter of 2008 and compared to $12.3 million in the first quarter of 2009. Investment income in the quarter declined slightly on a sequential basis. Other income declined sequentially as the first quarter of 2009 included a $5.8 million gain from the sale of the Company's South Carolina health plan assets.

Health Benefits

Health benefits expenses, as a percent of premium revenues, were 85.9% for the second quarter of 2009 versus 83.0% in the second quarter of 2008, and compared to 83.7% in the first quarter of 2009. The sequential increase in the health benefits ratio was primarily due to elevated outpatient costs.

As noted in the Company's Form 8-K filing on June 23, 2009, the Company believes that the substantial increase in membership during the last two quarters contributed to an increase in outpatient costs since experience indicates that the Company's new members generally utilize more services during the first two quarters of enrollment. In addition to this impact, further analysis of the most recent paid claims information indicates that outpatient costs are elevated across the existing membership base as well and this factor represents the larger impact on the health benefits ratio in the quarter.

The primary drivers of the outpatient cost increase were emergency room services, ambulatory surgery and physician services. In contrast, inpatient hospital costs remained stable and within the Company's expected range.

The Company has raised its estimates for incurred medical costs related to the first quarter of 2009 in recognition of higher outpatient costs and recorded estimates for the second quarter at an elevated level. The Company's previous medical cost estimates for the periods prior to 2009 have developed favorably. In total, the Company recorded approximately $1 million in favorable prior period reserve development in the second quarter. This was comprised of favorable reserve development of approximately $21 million for all periods prior to 2009, offset by unfavorable reserve development of approximately $20 million for the first quarter of 2009.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were 7.5% of total revenues for the second quarter of 2009, versus 10.1% in the second quarter of 2008, and compared to 9.0% for the first quarter of 2009. The selling, general and administrative expense ratio decreased sequentially because the Company served increased membership with limited increases in administrative costs and variable compensation accruals were reduced in concert with lower projected operating results for the full year.

Premium Taxes

Second quarter premium taxes were $34.6 million versus $22.1 million for the second quarter of 2008, and compared to $28.1 million in the first quarter of 2009. The sequential increase in premium taxes was primarily due to growth in premium revenues in states where premium tax is levied and the implementation of a premium tax in New York retroactive to the beginning of 2009.

Income Tax Expense

During the second quarter, the Company reached an agreement in principle with the Internal Revenue Service on the tax deductible portion of the previous litigation settlement in 2008. The increased deduction resulted in a $22.4 million tax benefit in the quarter or $0.43 per diluted share. Excluding the non-recurring tax adjustment, the second quarter tax rate was 37.4% versus 37.9% in the first quarter of 2009. This rate decrease was primarily attributable to the elimination of New York's state income tax that was part of the retroactive implementation of a premium tax.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Cash and investments at June 30, 2009 totaled $1.4 billion of which $253.8 million was unregulated. Unregulated cash declined sequentially due to the repurchase of approximately 745,000 shares of common stock for approximately $22.2 million under the Company's ongoing stock repurchase program, and repayment of $26.2 million of the Company's outstanding debt. The debt to total capital ratio decreased to 20.8%, as of June 30, 2009, from 23.0%, as of March 31, 2009.

Medical claims payable as of June 30, 2009 totaled $563.0 million compared to $570.4 million as of March 31, 2009. Days in claims payable represented 46 days of health benefits expense, which is within the expected range of 45 to 55 days, compared to 50 days in the previous quarter. The predominant factor that drove the decline in days in claims payable was an increase in claims processing speed. Production during the quarter increased almost 10%. On a per member basis, claims inventory on hand declined by approximately one-third from the first quarter to the second quarter and claims processing throughput speed increased by more than 10%.

Included on page 11 is a table presenting the components of the change in medical claims payable for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2008.

Cash flow provided by operations totaled $34.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and cash used in operations for the three months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2.1 million. Cash flow in the quarter was impacted most significantly by the timing of estimated tax payments. As of June 30, 2009, prepaid income taxes were $19.5 million compared to income taxes payable of $22.1 million at March 31, 2009, which negatively impacted cash flow in the quarter by $41.6 million.

Premium receivables also increased $17.8 million due to the timing of premium receipts in several states. A decline in the medical claims payable liability and a reduction of variable compensation accruals also suppressed cash flow in the quarter.

2009 Outlook

AMERIGROUP is updating its 2009 annual earnings guidance range to $2.90 to $3.05 per diluted share from the previously announced range of $2.70 to $2.85. The revision to guidance includes the $0.43 impact of the tax adjustment related to previous litigation as well as the impact of elevated outpatient medical costs.

"The elevated outpatient costs observed in the first half of the year have led to a revision in our outlook for the health benefits ratio," said James W. Truess, AMERIGROUP Chief Financial Officer. "While we are performing well in our management of administrative costs and expect the benefits of selling, general and administrative expense leverage to continue in the third and fourth quarters, our guidance assumes that outpatient costs will remain elevated for the remainder of the year."

AMERIGROUP's 2009 earnings guidance is predicated on the following assumptions among others:

• Total revenues are expected to be approximately $5.15 billion, versus the previous estimate of approximately $5.0 - $5.1 billion, which reflects the expectation that premium revenues will be higher due to higher membership;
• Investment income and other revenue is expected to be approximately $32.0 million, versus the previous estimate of approximately $33.0 million, which reflects slightly moderated investment income assumptions based on current market rates;
• Health benefits ratio in the range of 84.9% - 85.5% of premium revenues for the full year, versus the previous estimate of 84.1% - 84.5%, which reflects elevated outpatient medical costs relative to previous guidance;
• Selling, general and administrative expenses in the 7.5% - 7.8% range, versus the previous estimate of 8.1% - 8.5%, which reflects further administrative efficiencies leveraged on a higher membership base; and
• Fully diluted shares outstanding of approximately 52.7 million, versus the previous estimate of approximately 54 million, reflecting year-to-date and anticipated share buyback activity during the remainder of the year.
  

2009 Guidance -------------- Earnings per diluted share $2.90 - $3.05 Total revenues Approximately $5.15 billion Investment income and other Approximately $32.0 million Health benefits ratio 84.9% - 85.5% Selling, general & administrative ratio 7.5% - 7.8% Fully diluted shares outstanding Approximately 52.7 million

The following table sets forth the approximate number of members the Company served in each state as of June 30, 2009 and 2008.

Health benefits expenses incurred during both periods were reduced for amounts related to prior years.
