Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 19, 2012, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its second quarter 2012 results. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The press release contains second quarter 2012 adjusted cash flows from operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, which includes a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) premium payment for April 2012 that the Company received in March 2012, and excludes a CMS premium payment for July 2012 that the Company received in June 2012. The press release also includes a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of the disposition of OptumInsight's clinical trials services business in the calculation of OptumInsight's year-over-year increase in second quarter revenues.
The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to these non-GAAP measures are:
• | Second quarter 2012 cash flows from operating activities of $2.2 billion; and |
• | Second quarter 2012 year-over-year increase in OptumInsight revenues of $13 million or 2.0%. |
Adjusted cash flows from operating activities and adjusted increase in OptumInsight revenues should not be considered substitutes for or superior to financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that the use of non-GAAP financial measures improves the comparability of the Company's results between periods. These financial measures provide investors and the Company's management with useful information to measure and forecast the Company's results of operations, to compare on a consistent basis the Company's results of operations for the current period to that of prior periods, and to compare the Company's results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the health care industry.
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the special items associated with the operations of the Company's business as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, one should not consider these measures in isolation. The Company compensates for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as non-GAAP basis, disclosing these GAAP financial measures, and providing a reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
The information in this Item 2.02 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
