Finally, our compensation practices, rooted in our pay-for-performance philosophy, promote fair and competitive pay through measures such as benchmarking compensation by role, eliminating inquiries regarding applicants’ compensation history from the hiring process, and monitoring for potential disparities. Our most recent pay equity analysis among our U.S. employees, conducted in 2025, illustrated that female employees of The Cigna Group earn more than 99 cents for every dollar earned by similarly situated male employees, and employees from underrepresented groups (which includes Black/African American, Hispanic or Latino/a, Pacific Islander, and American Indian/Alaskan employees) earn more than 99 cents for every dollar earned by similarly situated white employees. We also analyzed gender pay on a global basis and found that, across the entire Company, female employees at The Cigna Group earn more than 99 cents for every dollar earned by similarly situated male employees.

#### Community Programs
In 2024, we launched our new, multi-year philanthropic and community engagement initiative that places a sharper focus on achieving better health and vitality in key regions—building healthier communities. This approach not only aligns to our environmental, social, and governance vision of advancing better health for all, particularly the Healthy Society and Healthy Workforce pillars, but it also incorporates connection points to our enterprise strategy; our approach to fair opportunity and inclusion; and the enterprise health equity strategy. Collectively, community programs at The Cigna Group encompass The Cigna Group Foundation, corporate giving, and employee giving and volunteerism.
