AMERIGROUP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1.    The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of AMERIGROUP Corporation and subsidiaries have been prepared without audit. In our opinion, they include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, we believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2002. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
 
On June 30, 2000, our Board of Directors and our stockholders approved a one-for-two reverse stock split of our common stock which was effected on November 9, 2001 in connection with the closing of the initial public offering. All agreements concerning stock options and warrants to purchase common stock provide for adjustments in the number of options or warrants and the related exercise price in the event of the declaration of a reverse stock split. All references to number of shares, except shares authorized, to common stock per share information, except par value per share, and to stock options and warrants to purchase common stock in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis.
 
On November 9, 2001, we completed our initial public offering of 4,985,000 shares of common stock including an over-allotment issuance of 585,000 shares at a price per share of $17.00. We received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $77.2 million. In conjunction with the offering, all Series A, B, C and D preferred stock in the aggregate was converted into 12,607,880 shares of common stock. We used proceeds from the offering to repay the balance of our long-term debt facility of approximately $4.4 million and to redeem the Series E mandatorily redeemable preferred stock for approximately $13.3 million. In addition, 1,123,823 shares of common stock were issued upon the exercise of all outstanding Series E warrants.

2.    Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders plus the accretion of convertible preferred stock dividends by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus other potentially dilutive securities. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

3.    On August 21, 2002, we entered into an agreement to acquire PHP Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary, Physicians Healthcare Plans, Inc. (together, PHP) for approximately $121 million. It is anticipated that approximately $60 million of the purchase price will be financed through AMERIGROUP’s existing credit facility with the balance funded through available unrestricted cash. The transaction is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions to closing. Subject to meeting all of these conditions, the transaction is expected to become effective in the first quarter of 2003. Under the agreement, AMERIGROUP will serve all of PHP’s Medicaid and SCHIP members and operate under the name AMERIGROUP Florida, Inc. PHP currently operates in 12 counties in central and south Florida, including the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa metropolitan areas. As of August 1, 2002, PHP had a Medicaid and SCHIP enrollment of approximately 184,000 members.

4.    In July 2002, we expanded the Credit and Guaranty Agreement entered into in November 2001 to include a fourth bank and to increase the revolving credit facility to $75 million from $60 million. The facility, which is currently undrawn, is collateralized by the assets of AMERIGROUP Corporation and by the common stock of its wholly owned subsidiaries.
 
5.    Effective July 1, 2002, we purchased Capital Community Health Plan’s (CCHP) Washington, D.C. Medicaid line of business. The assets purchased consisted of CCHP’s rights to provide managed care services to its Medicaid members, as well as certain provider agreements. In June 2002, approximately $6.8 million was placed in escrow for the acquisition.
 
6.    Effective January 1, 2002, we purchased MethodistCare, Inc.’s (MethodistCare) Houston, Texas Medicaid line of business for approximately $1.6 million. The assets purchased consisted of MethodistCare’s rights to provide managed care services to its Medicaid members, as well as certain provider agreements.
 
7.    In July 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142), was issued which requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested annually for impairment. We have adopted SFAS No. 142 and have determined that our goodwill and other intangible assets are not impaired.

Forward-looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other information we provide from time to time, contains certain “forward-looking” statements as that term is defined by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements regarding our expected future financial position, membership, results of operations or cash flows, our continued performance improvements, our ability to service our debt obligations, our ability to finance growth opportunities, our ability to respond to changes in government regulations, progress made and amounts to be spent on integrating our pending acquisition in Florida of PHP, the timing and expectation of the closure of the PHP acquisition, the expected accretion of such acquisitions and similar statements including, without limitation, those containing words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” and other similar expressions are forward-looking statements.
 
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from those projected or contemplated in the forward-looking statements as a result of, but not limited to, the following factors:
 
 
•
 
national, state and local economic conditions, including their effect on the rate setting process, timing of payments, as well as their effect on the availability and cost of labor, utilities and materials;
 
 
•
 
the effect of government regulations and changes in regulations governing the health care industry, including our compliance with such regulations and their effect on certain of our unit costs and our ability to manage our medical costs;
 
 
•
 
changes in Medicaid payment levels and methodologies and the application of such methodologies by the government;
 
 
•
 
liabilities and other claims asserted against the company;
 
 
•
 
our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
 
 
•
 
our ability to maintain compliance with all minimum capital requirements;
 
 
•
 
the availability and terms of capital to fund acquisitions and capital improvements;
 
 
•
 
the competitive environment in which we operate;
 
 
•
 
our ability to maintain and increase membership levels; and
 
 
•
 
demographic changes.
 
Investors should also refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2002 for a discussion of risk factors. Given these risks and uncertainties, we can give no assurances that any forward-looking statements will, in fact, transpire and therefore caution investors not to place undue reliance on them.
 
Overview
 
We are a multi-state managed health care company focused on serving people who receive health care benefits through state-sponsored programs, including Medicaid, State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) and FamilyCare. We were founded in December 1994 with the objective to become the leading managed care organization in the United States focused on serving people who receive these types of benefits. Our revenue is generated primarily from premiums received from the states in which we operate for providing health care benefits to members. We also generate revenues from investments. We generally receive a fixed premium per member per month to provide health care benefits to our members pursuant to contracts with four states and the District of Columbia. Our premiums are generally received in advance of providing services and we recognize premium revenue during the period in which we are obligated to provide services.

Three and Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2001
 
Revenues
 
Premium revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased $60.4 million, or 25.5%, to $297.0 million from $236.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Year-to-date premium revenue increased $213.2 million, or 33.8%, to $844.7 million from $631.5 million in 2001. The increase was principally due to internal growth in overall membership, premium rate increases and the acquisition of the Medicaid contracts and related assets of Humana’s Houston, Texas business in August 2001 (15,000 members), MethodistCare, Inc.’s Houston, Texas Medicaid contracts and related assets in January 2002 (11,000 members) and Capital Community Health Plan’s Medicaid line of business in July 2002 (23,000 members). Total membership increased 25.7% to 572,000 as of September 30, 2002 from 455,000 as of September 30, 2001.
 
Investment income decreased $0.4 million to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and decreased $2.5 million to $6.1 million year-to-date. The decrease in investment income was primarily due to the continued decline in market interest rates and increased levels of investments in tax-advantaged securities partially offset by an increase in overall levels of cash and investments. Levels of cash and investments have primarily increased due to proceeds from our initial public offering, profitability and increases in the amount of premiums received versus the timing of the payment of the related health benefits.
 
Health benefits
 
Expenses relating to health benefits for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased $47.9 million, or 24.9%, to $240.4 million from $192.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Year-to-date, expenses related to health benefits increased $178.0 million, or 35.1%, to $684.9 million in 2002 from $506.9 million in 2001. The overall increase in health benefits expense was primarily due to the increase in membership. The health benefits ratio, as a percentage of premium revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased to 80.9% from 81.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Year-to-date, the health benefits ratio increased to 81.1% from 80.3% in 2001. The change in the health benefits ratio as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, was primarily due to variations in levels of seasonality from 2001 to 2002 and changes in the mix of members by product.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the third quarter of 2002 increased $6.5 million, or 23.7%, to $33.9 million from $27.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Year-to-date, SG&A increased $16.5 million, or 20.7%, to $96.2 million in 2002 from $79.7 million in 2001. The increase in SG&A was primarily due to an increase in wages and related expenses for additional staff and other expenses to support our increased membership, our expenses related to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as well as expenses related to market development activities. Our SG&A ratio to total revenue was 11.3% and 11.5% for the third quarter of 2002 and 2001, respectively. The decrease in the ratio was primarily a result of certain fixed costs being spread over a larger membership base and its related revenue.
 
Interest expense
 
Interest expense was $0.2 million and $0.6 million for each of the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.
 
Provision for income taxes
 
Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2002 was $8.7 million with an effective tax rate of 41.0% as compared to $6.9 million in the third quarter of 2001 with an effective tax rate of 42.0%. Year-to-date, income tax expense was $24.5 million with an effective tax rate of 41.0% compared to $19.4 million with an effective tax rate of 42.0% in 2001. Our effective tax rates decreased in 2002 due to increased levels of investments in tax-advantaged securities.

Net income
 
Net income for the third quarter of 2002 rose $2.9 million, or 30.2%, to $12.5 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to $9.6 million, or $0.58 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2001. Year-to-date net income rose $8.5 million, or 31.7%, to $35.3 million, or $1.65 per diluted share in 2002 compared to $26.8 million, or $1.61 per diluted share in 2001. Diluted earnings per share remained unchanged due to the increase in net income offset by an increase of 4,985,000 common shares outstanding from our November 2001 initial public offering.
 
Liquidity and capital resources
 
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term investments, cash flow from operations and borrowings under our credit facility. As of September 30, 2002, we had cash and cash equivalents of $255.9 million, short and long-term investments of $109.3 million and restricted investments on deposit for licensure of $29.6 million. Total cash and investments as of September 30, 2002 was $394.8 million, a portion of which is restricted by state regulatory requirements. Unrestricted cash as of September 30, 2002 was approximately $131.4 million. As of September 30, 2002, there were no amounts outstanding under our credit facility.
 
On November 9, 2001, we completed our initial public offering of 4,985,000 shares of common stock including an over-allotment issuance of 585,000 shares at a price per share of $17.00. We received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $77.2 million. In conjunction with the offering, all Series A, B, C and D preferred stock in the aggregate was converted into 12,607,880 shares of common stock. We used proceeds from the offering to repay the balance of our long-term debt facility of approximately $4.4 million and to redeem the Series E mandatorily redeemable preferred stock for approximately $13.3 million. In addition, 1,123,823 shares of common stock were issued upon the exercise of all outstanding Series E warrants.
 
Cash from operations was $60.1 million and $91.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $29.2 million and $55.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in cash from operations was primarily due to an increase in net income and the receipt of unearned premium payments of $25.7 million in September 2002. As of September 30, 2002, we had working capital and long-term investments of $141.3 million as compared to $122.5 million at December 31, 2001.
 
Cash provided by investing activities was $32.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and cash used in investing activities was $19.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, cash used in investing activities was $20.3 million and $51.3 million. Cash provided by investing activities consists primarily of redemptions of held-to-maturity securities of $66.4 million, partially offset by purchases of held-to-maturity securities of $29.1 million. Other investing activities include the purchase of software and property and equipment. We anticipate total capital expenditures, including capitalized leases for both software and property and equipment, to be approximately $20 million to $25 million in 2002.
 
Our investment policies are designed to provide liquidity, preserve capital and maximize total return on invested assets. As of September 30, 2002, our investment portfolio consisted primarily of fixed-income securities. The average maturity is less than eleven months. We utilize investment vehicles such as municipal bonds, commercial paper, securities of U.S. government backed agencies, and U.S. Treasury instruments. The states in which we operate prescribe the types of instruments in which our subsidiaries may invest their cash. The average portfolio yield as of September 30, 2002 was approximately 2.13% compared to 3.74% as of September 30, 2001.
 
Effective January 1, 2002, we purchased certain assets of MethodistCare, Inc.’s (MethodistCare) Houston, Texas Medicaid line of business for approximately $1.6 million. The assets purchased consisted of MethodistCare’s rights to provide managed care services to its Medicaid members, and certain provider agreements.
 
Effective July 1, 2002, we purchased certain assets of Capital Community Health Plan’s (CCHP) Washington, D.C. Medicaid line of business. The assets purchased consist of CCHP’s rights to provide managed

care services to its Medicaid members and certain provider agreements. In June 2002, approximately $6.8 million was placed in escrow for the acquisition.
 
On August 21, 2002, we entered into an agreement to acquire PHP Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary, Physicians Healthcare Plans, Inc. (together, PHP) for approximately $121 million. It is anticipated that approximately $60 million of the purchase price will be financed through AMERIGROUP’s existing credit facility with the balance funded through available unrestricted cash. The transaction is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions to closing. Subject to meeting all of these conditions, the transaction is expected to become effective in the first quarter of 2003. The acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings by approximately $0.25 to $0.30 per share in 2003 and add nearly $300 million of annualized revenues. We expect to incur approximately $4 million of SG&A in the fourth quarter to help ensure a smooth transition of the PHP acquisition. Under the agreement, AMERIGROUP will serve all of PHP’s Medicaid and SCHIP members and operate under the name AMERIGROUP Florida, Inc. PHP currently operates in 12 counties in central and south Florida, including the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa metropolitan areas. As of August 1, 2002, PHP had a Medicaid and SCHIP enrollment of approximately 184,000 members.
 
Cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to cash used in financing activities of $0.6 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001. Cash provided by financing activities consisted primarily of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and changes in bank overdrafts, partially offset by payments on capital leases.
 
In July 2002, we expanded the Credit and Guaranty Agreement entered into in November 2001 to include a fourth bank and to increase the revolving credit facility to $75 million from $60 million. The facility is collateralized by the assets of AMERIGROUP Corporation and by the common stock of its wholly owned subsidiaries.
 
Our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum statutory capital requirements prescribed by various jurisdictions, including the departments of insurance in each of the states in which we operate. As of September 30, 2002, our subsidiaries were in compliance with all minimum statutory capital requirements. We believe that we will continue to be in compliance with these requirements at least through the end of this year.
 
We believe that internally generated funds, the remaining proceeds from our initial public offering and amounts available under our Credit and Guaranty Agreement will be sufficient to support continuing operations, capital expenditures and our growth strategy for at least the next 12 months.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142), was issued which requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested annually for impairment. We have adopted SFAS No. 142 and have determined that our goodwill and other intangible assets are not impaired.
 
In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which addresses the financial accounting and reporting of costs associated with an exit activity (including restructuring) or with a disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 146 is effective prospectively after December 31, 2002. Our management does not believe the implementation of this standard will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
 
Regulatory Capital and Dividend Restrictions
 
Our operations are conducted through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include Health Maintenance Organizations, or HMOs, and one managed care organization, or MCO. HMOs and MCOs are subject to state regulations that, among other things, may require the maintenance of minimum levels of statutory capital, as defined by each state, and restrict the timing, payment and amount of dividends and other distributions that may be paid to their stockholders.

Table of Contents
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has adopted rules which, to the extent that they are implemented by the states, will set new minimum capitalization requirements for insurance companies, HMOs and other entities bearing risk for health care coverage. The requirements take the form of risk-based capital rules. The change in rules for insurance companies became effective as of December 31, 1998. The new HMO rules, which may vary from state to state, are currently being considered for adoption. Illinois and Texas adopted various forms of the rules as of December 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Maryland adopted risk-based capital rules for MCOs as of December 31, 2001. However, Maryland exempted all MCOs from the rules for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002. New Jersey has not yet adopted risk-based capital. The NAIC’s risk-based capital rules, if adopted by other states in their proposed form, may increase the minimum capital required for our subsidiaries.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
As of September 30, 2002, we had short-term investments of $44.1 million, long-term investments of $65.2 million and investments on deposit for licensure of $29.6 million. These investments consist of highly liquid investments with maturities between three and twenty-four months. These investments are subject to interest rate risk and will decrease in value if market rates increase. We have the ability and intent to hold these investments to maturity, and as a result, we would not expect the value of these investments to decline significantly as a result of a sudden change in market interest rates. Declines in interest rates over time may reduce our investment income.
 
Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
 
 
(a)
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
 
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to AMERIGROUP (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
 
(b)
 
Changes in Internal Controls.
 
Since the Evaluation Date, there have not been any significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls.

We subsequently used proceeds from the offering to purchase certain assets of MethodistCare, Inc.’s Houston, Texas Medicaid line of business for approximately $1.6 million. In June 2002, we placed approximately $6.8 million into an escrow account for the acquisition of Capital Community Health Plan’s Medicaid line of business in Washington, D.C. The balance of approximately $51.1 million will be used for a portion of the acquisition cost of PHP Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary, Physicians Healthcare Plans, Inc.
