**PART I**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS** 

 **General**

Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, Humana Inc. and its subsidiaries, referred to throughout this document as "we," "us," "our," the "Company" or "Humana," is committed to putting health first – for our teammates, our customers, and our company. Through our Humana insurance services, and our CenterWell health care services, we make it easier for the millions of people we serve to achieve their best health – delivering the care and service they need, when they need it. These efforts are leading to a better quality of life for Medicare and Medicaid participants, families, individuals, military service personnel, and communities at large.

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 15 million members in our medical benefit plans, as well as approximately 4.7 million members in our specialty products. During 2025, 83% of our total premiums and services revenue were derived from contracts with the federal government, including 14% derived from our individual Medicare Advantage contracts in Florida with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, under which we provided health insurance coverage to approximately 1.0 million members as of December 31, 2025.

Humana Inc. was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1964. Our principal executive offices are located at 101 East Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky 40202, the telephone number at that address is (502) 580-1000, and our website address is www.humana.com. We have made available free of charge through the Investor Relations section of our web site our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements, and, if applicable, amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K, or 2025 Form 10-K, contains both historical and forward-looking information. See Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K for a description of a number of factors that may adversely affect our results or business.

**Business Segments**

Our two reportable segments, Insurance and CenterWell, are based on a combination of the type of health plan customer and adjacent businesses centered on well-being solutions for our health plans and other customers. Our Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Decision Maker, utilizes these segment groupings and results of each segment, measured by income (loss) from operations, to assess performance and allocate resources primarily during our annual budget process and periodic forecast updates. For additional information on our business segments and

------

segment financial information, refer to Note 18 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**

**Our Products**

Our medical and specialty insurance products allow members to access health care services primarily through our networks of health care providers with whom we have contracted. These products may vary in the degree to which members have coverage. Health maintenance organizations, or HMOs, include comprehensive managed care benefits generally through a participating network of physicians, hospitals, and other providers. Preferred provider organizations, or PPOs, provide members the freedom to choose any health care provider. However, PPOs generally require the member to pay a greater portion of the provider's fee in the event the member chooses not to use a provider participating in the PPO's network. Point of Service, or POS, plans combine the advantages of HMO plans with the flexibility of PPO plans. In general, POS plans allow members to choose, at the time medical services are needed, to seek care from a provider within the plan's network or outside the network. In addition, we offer services to our health plan members as well as to third parties that promote health and wellness, including pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions, as well as services and capabilities to advance population health. At the core of our strategy is our integrated care delivery model, which unites quality care, high member engagement, and sophisticated data analytics. Three core elements of the model are to improve the consumer experience by simplifying the interaction with us, engaging members in clinical programs, and offering assistance to providers in transitioning from a fee-for-service, or FFS, to a value-based arrangement. Our approach to primary, physician-directed care for our members aims to provide quality care that is consistent, integrated, cost-effective, and member-focused. The model is designed to improve health outcomes and affordability for individuals and for the health system as a whole, while offering our members a simple, seamless healthcare experience. The discussion that follows describes the products offered by each of our segments.

**Our Insurance Segment Products**

The Insurance segment is comprised of insurance products serving Medicare and state-based contract beneficiaries, as well as individuals and employers. The segment also includes our Pharmacy Benefit Manager, or PBM, business. These products are described in the discussion that follows.

The following table presents our premiums and services revenue for the Insurance segment by product for the year ended December 31, 2025:

***Medicare***

We have participated in the Medicare program for private health plans for over 30 years and have established a national presence, offering at least one type of Medicare plan in all 50 states. We have a geographically diverse membership base that we believe provides us with greater ability to expand our network of PPO and HMO providers. We employ strategies including health assessments and clinical guidance programs such as lifestyle and fitness programs for seniors to guide Medicare beneficiaries in making cost-effective decisions with respect to their health care. We believe these strategies result in cost savings that occur from making positive behavior changes.

Medicare is a federal program that provides persons age 65 and over and some disabled persons under the age of 65 certain hospital and medical insurance benefits. CMS, an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, administers the Medicare program. Hospitalization benefits are provided under Part A, without the payment of any premium, for up to 90 days per incident of illness plus a lifetime reserve aggregating 60 days. Eligible beneficiaries are required to pay an annually adjusted premium to the federal government to be eligible for physician care and other services under Part B. Beneficiaries eligible for Part A and Part B coverage under traditional fee-for-service Medicare are still required to pay out-of-pocket deductibles and coinsurance. Throughout this document this program is referred to as Medicare FFS. As an alternative to Medicare FFS, in geographic areas where a managed care organization has contracted with CMS pursuant to the Medicare Advantage program, Medicare beneficiaries may choose to receive benefits from a Medicare Advantage organization under Medicare Part C. Pursuant to Medicare Part C, Medicare Advantage organizations contract with CMS to offer Medicare Advantage plans to provide benefits at least comparable to those offered under Medicare FFS. Our Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans are discussed in the following sections. Prescription drug benefits are provided under Part D.

------

*Individual Medicare Advantage Products*

We contract with CMS under the Medicare Advantage program to provide a comprehensive array of health insurance benefits, including wellness programs, chronic care management, and care coordination, to Medicare eligible persons under HMO, PPO, Private Fee-For-Service, or PFFS, and Special Needs Plans, including Dual Eligible Special Needs, or D-SNP, plans in exchange for contractual payments received from CMS, usually a fixed payment per member per month. With each of these products, the beneficiary receives benefits in excess of Medicare FFS, typically including reduced cost sharing, enhanced prescription drug benefits, care coordination, data analysis techniques to help identify member needs, complex case management, tools to guide members in their health care decisions, care management programs, wellness and prevention programs and, in some instances, a reduced monthly Part B premium. Most Medicare Advantage plans offer the prescription drug benefit under Part D as part of the basic plan, subject to cost sharing and other limitations. Accordingly, all of the provisions of the Medicare Part D program described in connection with our stand-alone prescription drug plans in the following section also are applicable to most of our Medicare Advantage plans. Medicare Advantage plans may charge beneficiaries monthly premiums and other copayments for Medicare-covered services or for certain extra benefits. Generally, Medicare-eligible individuals enroll in one of our plan choices between October 15 and December 7 for coverage that begins on the following January 1.

Our Medicare HMO and PPO plans, which cover Medicare-eligible individuals residing in certain counties, may eliminate or reduce coinsurance or the level of deductibles on many other medical services while seeking care from participating in-network providers or in emergency situations. Except in emergency situations or as specified by the plan, most HMO plans provide no out-of-network benefits. PPO plans carry an out-of network benefit that is subject to higher member cost-sharing. In some cases, these beneficiaries are required to pay a monthly premium to the HMO or PPO plan in addition to the monthly Part B premium they are required to pay the Medicare program.

Most of our Medicare PFFS plans are network-based products with in and out of network benefits due to a requirement that Medicare Advantage organizations to establish adequate provider networks, except in geographic areas that CMS determines have fewer than two network-based Medicare Advantage plans. In these areas, we offer Medicare PFFS plans that have no preferred network. Individuals in these plans pay us a monthly premium to receive typical Medicare Advantage benefits along with the freedom to choose any health care provider that accepts individuals at rates equivalent to Medicare FFS payment rates.

CMS uses a risk-adjustment model that adjusts premiums paid to Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans according to health status of covered members. The risk-adjustment model, which CMS implemented pursuant to the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) and the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA), generally pays more where a plan's membership has higher expected costs. Under this model, rates paid to MA plans are based on actuarially determined bids, which include a process whereby our prospective payments are based on our estimated cost of providing standard Medicare-covered benefits to an enrollee with a "national average risk profile." That baseline payment amount is adjusted to account for certain demographic characteristics and health status of our enrolled members. Under the risk-adjustment methodology, all MA plans must collect from providers and submit the necessary diagnosis code information to CMS within prescribed deadlines. The CMS risk-adjustment model uses the diagnosis data, collected from providers, to calculate the health status-related risk-adjusted premium payment to MA plans, which CMS further adjusts for coding pattern differences between the health plans and the government fee-for-service (FFS) program. We generally rely on providers, including certain providers in our network who are our employees, to code their claim submissions with appropriate diagnoses, which we send to CMS as the basis for our health status-adjusted payment received from CMS under the actuarial risk-adjustment model. We also rely on these providers to document appropriately all medical data, including the diagnosis data submitted with claims. In addition, we conduct medical record reviews as part of our data and payment accuracy compliance efforts, to more accurately reflect diagnosis conditions under the risk adjustment model. For additional information, refer to Note 17 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

At December 31, 2025, we provided health insurance coverage under CMS contracts to approximately 5.2 million individual Medicare Advantage members, including approximately 1.0 million members in Florida. These

------

Florida contracts accounted for premiums revenue of approximately $17.8 billion, which represented approximately 20% of our individual Medicare Advantage premiums revenue, or 14% of our consolidated premiums and services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Our individual Medicare Advantage products covered under Medicare Advantage contracts with CMS are renewed generally for a calendar year term unless CMS notifies us of its decision not to renew by May 1 of the calendar year in which the contract would end, or we notify CMS of our decision not to renew by the first Monday in June of the calendar year in which the contract would end. All material contracts between Humana and CMS relating to our Medicare Advantage products have been renewed for 2026, and all of our product offerings filed with CMS and going to market for 2026 have been approved.

*Individual Medicare Stand-Alone Prescription Drug Products*

We offer stand-alone prescription drug plans, or PDPs, under Medicare Part D, including a PDP offering co-branded with Walmart Inc., or the Humana-Walmart plan. Generally, Medicare-eligible individuals enroll in one of our plan choices between October 15 and December 7 for coverage that begins on the following January 1. Our stand-alone PDP offerings consist of plans offering basic coverage with benefits mandated by Congress, as well as plans providing enhanced coverage with varying degrees of out-of-pocket costs for premiums, deductibles, and co-insurance. Our revenues from CMS and the beneficiary are determined from our PDP bids submitted annually to CMS. These revenues also reflect the health status of the beneficiary and risk sharing provisions as more fully described in Note 2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, titled "Receivables and Revenue Recognition." Our stand-alone PDP contracts with CMS are renewed generally for a calendar year term unless CMS notifies us of its decision not to renew by May 1 of the calendar year in which the contract would end, or we notify CMS of our decision not to renew by the first Monday in June of the calendar year in which the contract would end. All material contracts between Humana and CMS relating to our Medicare stand-alone PDP products have been renewed for 2026, and all of our product offerings filed with CMS and going to market for 2026 have been approved.

We have administered CMS's Limited Income Newly Eligible Transition, or LI-NET, prescription drug plan program since 2010. This program allows individuals who receive Medicare's low-income subsidy to also receive immediate prescription drug coverage at the point of sale if they are not already enrolled in a Medicare Part D plan. CMS temporarily enrolls newly identified individuals with both Medicare and Medicaid into the LI-NET prescription drug plan program, and subsequently transitions each member into a Medicare Part D plan that may or may not be a Humana Medicare plan.

*Group Medicare Advantage and Medicare Stand-Alone PDP*

We offer products that enable employers that provide post-retirement health care benefits to replace Medicare wrap or Medicare supplement products with Medicare Advantage or stand-alone PDPs from Humana. These products are primarily offered as PPO plans on the same Medicare platform as individual Medicare Advantage plans. These plans offer the same types of benefits and services available to members in our individual Medicare plans discussed previously, however, group Medicare Advantage plans typically have richer benefit offerings than individual Medicare Advantage plans, including prescription drug coverage in the gap, for instance, due to the desire of many customers to closely match their pre-retirement benefit structure.

*Medicare Supplement*

We also offer Medicare supplement products that help pay the medical expenses that Medicare FFS does not cover, such as copayments, coinsurance and deductibles.

------

***State-based Contracts***

Through our state-based contracts, we serve members enrolled in Medicaid, a program funded by both the federal and state governments and administered by states to care for their most vulnerable populations. Within federal guidelines, states determine whom to cover, but general categories for traditional Medicaid programs include children and parents; Aged, Blind, and Disabled (ABD) individuals; and Medicaid Expansion adults. Through Medicaid Managed Long-Term Support Services (MLTSS) programs, states offer programs to deliver support services to people who receive home and community or institution-based services for long-term care.

We have contracts in multiple states to serve Medicaid-eligible members, including Florida, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin.

We also serve members who qualify for both Medicaid and Medicare, referred to as "dual eligible", through our Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and stand-alone prescription drug plans. As the dual eligible population represents a disproportionate share of costs, Humana is participating in varied integration models designed to improve health outcomes and reduce avoidable costs.

As part of our individual Medicare Advantage products, we also offer Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plans (D-SNP). In connection with offering a D-SNP in a particular state, we are required to enter into a special coordinating contract with the applicable state Medicaid agency. To meet federal requirements that took effect in 2021, states have implemented new D-SNP requirements to strengthen Medicaid-Medicare integration requirements for D-SNPs. Some states are also moving to support the dual eligible population by linking D-SNP participation to enrollment in a plan that also participates in a state-based Medicaid program to coordinate and integrate both Medicare and Medicaid benefits.

***Specialty***

We sell specialty and ancillary insurance benefits consisting of dental, vision, life and disability to employer groups. In addition, we sell dental and vision specialty insurance benefits to individuals.

***Military Services***

Under our TRICARE contracts with the United States Department of Defense, or DoD, we provide administrative services to arrange health care services for active-duty and retired military personnel and their dependents. We have participated in the TRICARE program since 1996 under contracts with the DoD. Under our contracts, we provide administrative services while the federal government retains all of the risk of the cost of health benefits. Accordingly, we account for revenues under the current contract net of estimated health care costs similar to an administrative services fee only agreement.

We delivered services under the T2017 East Region contract from commencement on January 1, 2018 through expiration on December 31, 2024. The T2017 East Region contract comprised 32 states and approximately 6 million TRICARE beneficiaries. In December 2022, we were awarded the next generation of TRICARE Managed Care Support Contracts, or T-5, for the updated TRICARE East Region by the Defense Health Agency of the DoD. The T-5 East Region contract commenced on January 1, 2025 and comprises 24 states, and Washington D.C., and approximately 4.6 million beneficiaries. The transition period for the T-5 contract began in January 2024 and overlapped the final year of the T2017 contract. The length of the contract is one transition year followed by eight annual option periods, which, if all options are exercised, would result in a total contract length of nine years.

**Our CenterWell Segment Products**

The products offered by our CenterWell segment are key to our integrated care delivery model. This segment includes our pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions operations. The CenterWell segment also includes our strategic partnerships with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, or WCAS, to develop and operate senior-focused, payor-agnostic, primary care centers, as well as our minority ownership interest in hospice operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs. For

***Pharmacy Solutions***

Our pharmacy solutions business includes the operations of CenterWell Pharmacy (our mail-order pharmacy business), CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy, and other retail pharmacies located within CenterWell Primary Care clinics for brand, generic, specialty drugs, over the counter medications and supplies, as well as hospice pharmacy drugs.

***Primary Care***

We operate full-service, value-based senior focused primary care centers in a number of states, including Arizona, Georgia, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia staffed by primary care providers and medical specialists with a primary focus on the senior population under our primary care business. Our primary care business operates these clinics primarily under the Conviva Senior Primary Care and CenterWell Senior Primary Care brands. Our primary care subsidiaries operate our medical center business through both employed physicians and care providers, and through third-party management service organizations with whom we contract to arrange for and manage certain clinical services. Our primary care business currently operates 350 primary care clinics and employs approximately 1,300 primary care providers. Primary care serves approximately 491,100 patients, primarily under risk sharing arrangements with Humana Medicare Advantage health plans, third-party Medicare Advantage health plans and CMS administered risk sharing arrangements for Original Medicare.

Our primary care business also operates a management services organization, or MSO, through Conviva and CenterWell that coordinates medical care for Medicare Advantage beneficiaries across multiple states. This MSO provides resources in care coordination, financial risk management, clinical integration and patient engagement that help physicians improve the patient experience as well as care outcomes. Primary care's MSO collaborates with physicians, medical groups and integrated delivery systems to successfully transition to value-based care by engaging, partnering and offering practical services and solutions.

------

Our primary care business previously entered into a strategic partnership with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, or WCAS, to accelerate the expansion of our primary care model through the development of clinics. As of December 31, 2025, there were 146 primary care clinics operating under the partnership. For additional information, refer to Note 4 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

***Home Solutions***

*CenterWell Home Health*

We operate CenterWell Home Health, one of the nation's largest home health providers, through which we are actively involved in the care management of our customers with the greatest needs via in-home care. CenterWell Home Health has locations in 37 states, providing extensive geographic coverage with approximately 68% overlap with our individual Medicare Advantage membership. Our home solutions geographic scale and clinical breadth provides the opportunity to offer care beyond our health plan members. Through the integration of these home health operations, we are focused on accelerating clinical innovation and the development and roll out of a value-based operating model at scale, more closely aligning incentives to focus on improving patient outcomes and reducing the total cost of care. This is critical to deploying a value-based, advanced home health model at scale that makes it easier for patients and providers to benefit from our full continuum of home-based capabilities, leveraging the best channel to deliver the right care needed at the right time.

*OneHome*

OneHome serves as the convener for the value-based model meeting the needs of health plans by serving their members through a full-risk model for integrated home-based services. OneHome manages a full range of post-acute patient needs, integrating and coordinating with physicians, hospitals and health plans for the provision of home health and infusion services as well as the distribution of durable medical equipment, or DME, at patients' homes.

*Hospice*

We completed the sale of a 60% interest in Gentiva Hospice on August 11, 2022 and we account for our remaining minority ownership in Gentiva Hospice using the equity method of accounting. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, we owned approximately 35%. For additional information on our ownership interest of Gentiva Hospice, refer to Note 4 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

**Provider Arrangements**

We provide our members with access to health care services through our networks of health care providers whom we employ or with whom we have contracted, including hospitals and other independent facilities such as outpatient surgery centers, primary care providers, specialist physicians, dentists, and providers of ancillary health care services and facilities. These ancillary services and facilities include laboratories, ambulance services, medical equipment services, home health agencies, mental health providers, rehabilitation facilities, nursing homes, optical services, and pharmacies. Our membership base and the ability to influence where our members seek care generally enable us to obtain contractual discounts with providers.

We use a variety of techniques to provide access to effective and efficient use of health care services for our members. These techniques include the coordination of care for our members, product and benefit designs, hospital inpatient management systems, the use of sophisticated analytics, and enrolling members into various care management programs. The focal point for health care services in many of our HMO networks is the primary care provider who, under contract with us, provides services to our members, and may control utilization of appropriate services by directing or approving hospitalization and referrals to specialists and other providers. Some physicians may have arrangements under which they can earn bonuses when certain target goals relating to the provision of quality patient care are met. We have available care management programs related to complex chronic conditions such as congestive heart failure and coronary artery disease. We also have programs for prenatal and premature infant care, asthma related illness, end stage renal disease, diabetes, cancer, and certain other conditions.

------

We typically contract with hospitals on either (1) a per diem rate, which is an all-inclusive rate per day, (2) a case rate for diagnosis-related groups (DRG), which is an all-inclusive rate per admission, or (3) a discounted charge for inpatient hospital services. Outpatient hospital services generally are contracted at a flat rate by type of service, ambulatory payment classifications, or APCs, or at a discounted charge. APCs are similar to flat rates except multiple services and procedures may be aggregated into one fixed payment. These contracts are often multi-year agreements. Outpatient surgery centers and other ancillary providers typically are contracted at flat rates per service provided or are reimbursed based upon a nationally recognized fee schedule such as the Medicare allowable fee schedule.

Our contracts with physicians typically are renewed automatically each year, unless either party gives written notice, generally ranging from 90 to 120 days, to the other party of its intent to terminate the arrangement. Most of the physicians in our PPO networks and some of our physicians in our HMO networks are reimbursed based upon a fixed fee schedule, which typically provides for reimbursement based upon a percentage of the standard Medicare allowable fee schedule.

The terms of our contracts with hospitals and physicians may also vary between Medicare and Medicaid business. A significant portion of our Medicare network contracts, including those with both hospitals and physicians, are tied to Medicare reimbursement levels and methodologies.

**Capitation**

We offer providers a continuum of opportunities to increase the integration of care and offer assistance to providers in transitioning from a fee-for-service to a value-based arrangement. These include performance bonuses, shared savings and shared risk relationships. For some of our medical membership, we share risk with providers under capitation contracts where physicians and hospitals accept varying levels of financial risk for a defined set of membership. Under the typical capitation arrangement, we prepay these providers a monthly fixed-fee per member, known as a capitation (per capita) payment, to cover all or a defined portion of the benefits provided to the capitated member.

We believe these value-based arrangements represent a key element of our integrated care delivery model at the core of our strategy. Our health plan subsidiaries may enter into these value-based arrangements with third-party providers or our owned provider subsidiaries.

At December 31, 2025, approximately 2,260,900 members, or 15.1%, of our medical membership, were covered under shared risk value-based arrangements, which provide all member benefits, including 1,947,900 individual Medicare Advantage members, or 37.1%, of our total individual Medicare Advantage membership.

Physicians under capitation arrangements typically have stop loss coverage so that a physician's financial risk for any single member is limited to a maximum amount on an annual basis. We typically process all claims and measure the financial performance of our capitated providers and require guarantees in certain instances. However, we delegated claim processing functions under capitation arrangements covering approximately 299,900 members, including 299,100 individual Medicare Advantage members, or 15.4%, of the 1,947,900 individual Medicare Advantage members covered under shared risk value-based contracts at December 31, 2025, with the provider assuming substantially all the risk of coordinating the members' health care benefits. Capitation expense under delegated arrangements for which we have a limited view of the underlying claims experience was approximately $3.7 billion, or 3.3%, of total benefits expense, for the year ended December 31, 2025. We remain financially responsible for health care services to our members in the event our providers fail to provide such services.

**Accreditation Assessment**

Our accreditation assessment program consists of several internal programs, including those that credential providers and those designed to meet the audit standards of federal and state agencies as well as external accreditation standards. We also offer quality and outcome measurement and improvement programs such as the Health Care Effectiveness Data and Information Set, or HEDIS, which is used by employers, government purchasers

------

and the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) to evaluate health plans based on various criteria, including effectiveness of care and member satisfaction.

Providers participating in our networks must satisfy specific criteria, including licensing, patient access, office standards, after-hours coverage, and other factors. Most participating hospitals also meet accreditation criteria established by CMS and/or The Joint Commission.

Recredentialing of participating providers occurs every three years, unless otherwise required by state or federal regulations. Recredentialing of participating providers includes verification of their medical licenses, review of their malpractice liability claims histories, review of their board certifications, if applicable, and review of applicable quality information. A committee composed of a peer group of providers reviews the applications of providers being considered for credentialing and recredentialing.

We maintain accreditation for certain of our health plans and/or departments from NCQA, the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), and/or URAC.

NCQA reviews our compliance based on standards for quality improvement, population health management, credentialing, utilization management, network management, and member experience. We have achieved and maintained NCQA health plan accreditation in many of our Medicare and Medicaid markets. Humana's subsidiary, CenterWell Pharmacy, Inc., holds accreditations from URAC.

**Sales and Marketing**

We use various methods to market our products, including television, radio, the Internet, telemarketing, wholesale distributors (general agencies) and direct mailings.

At December 31, 2025, we employed approximately 1,000 sales representatives, as well as approximately 2,200 telemarketing representatives who assisted in the marketing of Medicare products, including Medicare Advantage and PDP, and specialty products in our Insurance segment, including making appointments for sales representatives with prospective members. We have a marketing arrangement with Walmart Inc., or Walmart, for our individual Medicare stand-alone PDP offering. We also sell group Medicare Advantage products through large employers. In addition, we market our Medicare and individual specialty products through licensed independent brokers and agents. For our Medicare products, commissions paid to employed sales representatives and independent brokers and agents are based on a per unit commission structure, regulated in structure and amount by CMS. For our individual specialty products, we generally pay brokers a commission based on premiums, with commissions varying by market and premium volume. In addition to a commission based directly on premium volume for sales to particular customers, we also have programs that pay brokers and agents based on other metrics. These include commission bonuses based on sales that attain certain levels or involve particular products. We also pay additional commissions based on aggregate volumes of sales involving multiple customers.

In our Insurance segment, we market our specialty products to individuals through their employers or other groups, which typically offer employees or members a selection of specialty products, pay for all or part of the premiums, and make payroll deductions for any premiums payable by the employees. We use licensed independent brokers, independent agents, digital insurance agencies, and employees to sell our specialty products. We pay brokers and agents using the same commission structure described above for our specialty products.

**Underwriting**

Since 2014, the Patient Protection and Affordability Care Act and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which we collectively refer to as the Health Care Reform Law, requires certain group health plans to guarantee issuance and renew coverage without pre-existing condition exclusions or health-status rating adjustments. Accordingly, certain group health plans are not subject to underwriting. Further, underwriting techniques are not employed in connection with our individual Medicare, military services, or Medicaid products because government regulations require us to accept all eligible applicants regardless of their health or medical history.

------

**Competition**

The health benefits industry is highly competitive. Our competitors vary by local market and include other managed care companies, national insurance companies, and other HMOs and PPOs. Many of our competitors have a larger membership base and/or greater financial resources than our health plans in the markets in which we compete. Our ability to sell our products and to retain customers may be influenced by such factors as those described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

**Government Regulation**

Diverse legislative and regulatory initiatives at both the federal and state levels continue to affect aspects of the nation's health care system, including the Health Care Reform Law at the federal level and laws in certain states limiting the entry of new providers or services though a certificate of need, or CON, process.

Our management works proactively to ensure compliance with all governmental laws and regulations affecting our business. We are unable to predict how existing federal or state laws and regulations may be changed or interpreted, what additional laws or regulations affecting our businesses may be enacted or proposed, when and which of the proposed laws will be adopted or what effect any such new laws and regulations will have on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

For a description of certain material current activities in the federal and state legislative areas, see Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

**Certain Other Services**

***Captive Insurance Company***

We bear general business risks associated with operating our Company such as professional and general liability, employee workers' compensation, cybersecurity, and officer and director errors and omissions risks. Professional and general liability risks may include, for example, medical malpractice claims and disputes with members regarding benefit coverage. We retain certain of these risks through our wholly-owned, captive insurance subsidiary. We reduce exposure to these risks by insuring levels of coverage for losses in excess of our retained limits with a number of third-party insurance companies. We remain liable in the event these insurance companies are unable to pay their portion of the losses.

***Centralized Intercompany Services***

We provide centralized intercompany services to each of our health plans and to our business segments from our headquarters and service centers. These services include management information systems, product development and administration, finance, human resources, accounting, law, public relations, marketing, insurance, purchasing, risk management, internal audit, actuarial, underwriting, claims processing, billing/enrollment, and customer service. Through intercompany service agreements approved, if required, by state regulatory authorities, Humana Inc., our parent company, charges a services fee for reimbursement of certain centralized services provided to its subsidiaries to the extent that Humana Inc. is the service provider.

**Human Capital Management** 

Our associates are essential to our success in delivering on our core strategy, and creating positive healthcare experiences for our members. We are committed to recruiting, developing, and retaining strong and diverse teams. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 67,060 associates.

***Our Culture, Engagement and Approach to Work***

We believe that our members' experience is linked to our associates' experience and that engaged, productive associates are the key to building a healthy company and caring environment where our associates go above and beyond for our members, driving innovation, and offering fulfilling experiences that incentivizes them to stay with

------

us over the long-term. We provide opportunities for our associates to add to their personal well-being experiences that go beyond health to enhance their individual need for purpose, belonging and security. With an average tenure of 7 years at our Company, our associates' loyalty reflects our culture and commitment to growth. We believe that voluntary turnover rate (VTR) is an important indicator of workforce satisfaction as we strive for our associates to choose us over other opportunities. During 2025, our VTR was 13.8%, representing a decrease from 14.4% in 2024.

We regularly measure our success and seek opportunities to advance engagement through an Annual Engagement Survey, or AES, and continuous listening campaigns. Continuous listening involves our proactive solicitation, analysis and response to associate feedback throughout the year by using pulse surveys. By regularly surveying samples of our workforce, we are able to continuously assess our effectiveness and act when needed, which in turn helps to strengthen our culture and support associate engagement. We aim to conduct our confidential, third-party administered AES on an annual basis and encourage all of our associates to participate. The AES is an in-depth survey covering a variety of dimensions that align to the Company's strategy and associate engagement. We aggregate survey results, provide them to our entire associate population and encourage leaders to use the information to create open, honest action plans with their teams to build upon our collective engagement.

***Pay and Benefits Philosophy, Compensation and Financial Security***

We believe a fair and transparent workplace is essential for associate trust and engagement. To that end, our Company advances pay transparency and equity to ensure compensation decisions are unbiased, competitive and aligned with our commitment to support every associate's success. Each year, we conduct a comprehensive pay equity/gap analysis to identify and address potential pay disparities between associates performing similar work in similar capacities. Our pay and benefits structure is designed to attract, motivate, incentivize, retain, and reward our associates, at all levels of the organization, for their skill development, demonstration of our values and performance fostering an engaged and talented team. Our Total Rewards program complements these efforts by providing competitive compensation, robust benefits and resources that support health, financial security and work-life balance. While our programs vary by location, associate type and business, they generally include:

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

**Risks Relating to Our Business**

***If we do not design and price our products properly and competitively, if the premiums we charge are insufficient to cover the cost of health care services delivered to our members, if we are unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better health care experience for our members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of our members, or if our estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, our profitability may be materially adversely affected. We estimate the costs of our benefits expense payments, and design and price our products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, our reserves may be insufficient.***

We use a substantial portion of our revenues to pay the costs of health care services delivered to our members, including claims payments, capitation payments to providers (predetermined amounts paid to cover services), estimates of future payments to hospitals and others for medical care provided to our members, and various other costs. Generally, premiums in the health care business are fixed for one-year periods. Accordingly, costs we incur in excess of our benefit cost projections generally are not recovered in the contract year through higher premiums. We estimate the costs of our future benefit claims and other expenses using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon claim payment patterns, medical inflation, historical developments, including claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns, and other relevant factors. We also record benefits payable for future payments. We continually review estimates of future payments relating to benefit claims costs for services incurred in the current and prior periods and make necessary adjustments to our reserves, including premium deficiency reserves where appropriate. However, these estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability that is sensitive to claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Many factors may and often do cause actual health care costs to exceed what was estimated and used to set our premiums. These factors may include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased use of medical facilities and services, and the increased cost of such services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased use or cost of prescription drugs, including specialty prescription drugs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the introduction of new or costly treatments, prescription drugs, or new technologies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our membership mix;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• variances in actual versus estimated levels of cost associated with new products, benefits or lines of business, product changes or benefit level changes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the demographic characteristics of an account or market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes or reductions of our utilization management functions such as preauthorization of services, concurrent review or requirements for physician referrals;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in our purchase discounts or rebates received from manufacturers and wholesalers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pharmacy volume rebates received from drug manufacturers, which in Medicare Part D are fully reported to CMS and factored into member premium pricing and CMS reimbursement to the plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• catastrophes, including acts of terrorism, public health emergencies, epidemics or pandemics (such as COVID-19), or natural disasters (such as hurricanes and earthquakes) which could occur more frequently or with more intense effects as a result of the impact of global climate change;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• medical cost inflation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• government mandated benefits, member eligibility criteria, or other legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Key to our operational strategy is the implementation of clinical initiatives that we believe provide a better health care experience for our members, lower the cost of healthcare services delivered to our members, and appropriately document the risk profile of our members. Our profitability and competitiveness depend in large part

------

on our ability to appropriately manage health care costs through, among other things, the application of medical management programs such as our chronic care management program.

While we proactively attempt to effectively manage our operating expenses, increases or decreases in staff-related expenses, any costs associated with exiting products, additional investment in new products (including our opportunities in the Medicare programs, state-based contracts, and expansion of clinical capabilities as part of our integrated care delivery model), investments in health and well-being product offerings, acquisitions, new taxes and assessments, inflation, and implementation of regulatory requirements may increase our operating expenses.

Failure to adequately price our products or estimate sufficient benefits payable or effectively manage our operating expenses, may result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

We are in a highly competitive industry. Some of our competitors are more established in the health care industry in terms of a larger market share and have greater financial resources than we do in some markets. In addition, other companies may enter our markets in the future, including emerging competitors in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or in the delivery of health care services. We believe that barriers to entry in our markets are not substantial, so the addition of new competitors can occur relatively easily, and customers enjoy significant flexibility in moving between competitors through the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period. While health plans compete on the basis of many factors, including service and the quality and depth of provider networks, we expect that price will continue to be a significant basis of competition. In addition to the challenge of controlling health care costs, we face intense competitive pressure to contain premium prices. Factors such as business consolidations, strategic alliances, legislative and regulatory reform, and marketing practices create pressure to contain premium price increases, despite being faced with increasing medical and administrative costs.

The policies and decisions of the federal and state governments regarding the Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug Plans, military services and Medicaid programs in which we participate have a substantial impact on our profitability. These governmental policies and decisions, which we cannot predict with certainty, directly shape the premiums or other revenues to us under the programs, the eligibility and enrollment of our members, the services we provide to our members, and our administrative, health care services, and other costs associated with these programs. Legislative or regulatory actions, such as changes to the programs in which we participate, those resulting in a reduction in premium payments to us, an increase in our cost of administrative and health care services, or additional fees, taxes or assessments, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

Premium increases, introduction of new product designs, and our relationships with our providers in various markets, among other issues, could also affect our membership levels. Other actions that could affect membership levels include our possible exit from or entrance into Medicare or commercial markets, or the termination of a large contract.

If we do not compete effectively in our markets, if we set rates too high or too low in highly competitive markets to keep or increase our market share, if membership does not increase as we expect, if membership declines, or if we lose membership with favorable medical cost experience while retaining or increasing membership with unfavorable medical cost experience, our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

***If we fail to effectively implement our operational and strategic initiatives, including our Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of our revenues in these products, our state-based contracts strategy, the growth of our CenterWell businesses, and our integrated care delivery model, our business may be materially adversely affected.***

------

solutions, primary care, and home solutions businesses, and the successful implementation of our integrated care delivery model.

We have made substantial investments in the Medicare program to enhance our ability to participate in these programs. The growth of our Medicare products is an important part of our business strategy, and the attendant concentration of revenues intensifies the risks to us inherent in Medicare products. Any failure to achieve this growth may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

***The number of our Medicare Advantage plans rated 4-star or higher significantly declined in 2025. We have filed a lawsuit seeking to set aside and vacate the 2025 Star Ratings of our Medicare Advantage plans, but there is no assurance that we will prevail in this lawsuit. If we are not successful, the decline in our Star Ratings will negatively impact our 2026 quality bonus payments from CMS and may also significantly adversely affect our revenues, operating results, and cash flows. In addition, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in maintaining or improving our Star Ratings in future years.***

The achievement of Star Ratings of 4-star or higher qualifies Medicare Advantage plans for premium bonuses. Our Medicare Advantage plans' operating results may be significantly affected by their star ratings. Uncertainties with respect to both ongoing changes to the Star Ratings system and CMS cut-points for establishing a plan's performance with respect to star rating measures, which are not determined until after the relevant measurement period, continue to make accurate prediction of each Medicare Advantage plan's Star Ratings more challenging. Despite our operational efforts to improve our Star Ratings, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in maintaining or improving our Star Ratings in future years. In addition, audits of our performance for past or future periods may result in downgrades to our star ratings. Accordingly, our plans may not be eligible for full level quality bonuses or may not match the performance of our competitors, each of which could materially and adversely affect the benefits such plans can offer, reduce membership and/or reduce profit margins, which may significantly adversely affect our revenues, operating results, and cash flows.

Based on 2025 Medicare Advantage Star Ratings released by CMS in October 2024, we have experienced a significant decline in the number of our Medicare Advantage members enrolled in plans rated 4-star or higher for 2025. We have filed a lawsuit that, among other things, seeks to set aside and vacate the 2025 Star Ratings for our Medicare Advantage plans, but there is no assurance that we will prevail in the lawsuit. If we are not successful, the decline in our Star Ratings performance for 2025 will negatively impact our 2026 quality bonus payments from CMS and may also significantly adversely affect our revenues, operating results, and cash flows. Please see "Legal Proceedings and Certain Regulatory Matters" in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K for a description of the lawsuit.

it harder for us to conduct our business using AI/ML, require us to retrain our AI/ML, delete data produced by our AI/ML, or prevent or limit our use of AI/ML. Our use of AI/ML technologies could also result in additional compliance costs, regulatory investigations, actions, fines or penalties, and consumer or other lawsuits.

We depend on independent third parties for significant portions of our systems-related support, equipment, facilities, and certain data, including data center operations, data network, voice communication services and pharmacy data processing. This dependence makes our operations vulnerable to such third parties' failure to perform adequately under the contract, due to internal or external factors. A change in service providers could result in a decline in service quality and effectiveness or less favorable contract terms which may adversely affect our operating results.

We rely on our agreements with customers and service providers, confidentiality agreements with employees, and our trade secrets and copyrights to protect our proprietary rights. These legal protections and precautions may not prevent misappropriation of our proprietary information. The misappropriation of our proprietary information could hinder our ability to market and sell products and services and may result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

***If we, and the third-party service providers on whom we rely, are unable to defend our information technology systems against cybersecurity attacks, contain such attacks when they occur, or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt our operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, we could be exposed to significant regulatory fines or penalties, liability or reputational damage, or experience a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.***

In the ordinary course of our business, we process, store and transmit large amounts of data, and rely on third-party service providers to do the same, including protected personal information subject to privacy, security or data breach notification laws, as well as proprietary or confidential information relating to our business or a third-party with which we do business. We have been, and will likely continue to be, regular targets of attempted cybersecurity attacks and other security threats and may be, and have been, subject to breaches of our information technology systems, including breaches of the information technology systems of third-party service providers. For example, in February 2024, Change Healthcare experienced a significant cybersecurity incident that disrupted its ability to provide services, impacting payers, providers and pharmacies nationwide, including us. Although the impact of such attacks has not been material to our operations or results of operations, financial position, or cash flow through December 31, 2025, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to detect, prevent, or contain the effects of such cybersecurity attacks or other information security risks or threats, or that such an attack will not be material to our business, in the future. Further, because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and are increasing in sophistication, in part due to use of evolving AI/ML technologies (including generative AI), and because our businesses are changing as well, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques and threats, detect data security incidents or implement adequate preventive measures. A cybersecurity attack may penetrate our layered security controls and lead to the misappropriation of or compromise of protected personal information or proprietary or confidential information, create system disruptions, cause shutdowns, or deploy viruses, ransomware, and other malicious software programs that attack our systems or those of our third-party service providers. A cybersecurity attack that bypasses our information technology systems,

------

or the security of our third-party service providers, could materially affect us due to the theft, destruction, loss, misappropriation or release of sensitive personal information, confidential information or proprietary information (including intellectual property), operational or business delays resulting from the disruption of our IT systems, extortion attempts, or negative publicity resulting in reputation or brand damage with our members, customers, providers, and other stakeholders.

The costs to detect, prevent, eliminate or address cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities before or after an incident could be substantial. Our remediation efforts may not be successful and could result in interruptions, delays, or cessation of service, and loss of existing or potential members. In addition, breaches of our security measures or the security measures of third-party service providers, and the unauthorized dissemination of protected personal information or proprietary or confidential information about us or our customers or other third parties, can expose our associates' or customers' private information and result in the risk of financial or medical identity theft, or expose us or other third parties to a risk of loss or misuse of this information, result in significant regulatory fines or penalties, litigation and potential liability for us, damage our brand and reputation, or otherwise harm our business.

***We are involved in various legal actions and governmental and internal investigations, any of which, if resolved unfavorably to us, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in our business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could increase our cost of doing business.***

We are or may become a party to a variety of legal actions that affect our business, including breach of contract actions, employment compensation and other labor and employment practice suits, employee benefit claims, stockholder suits and other securities laws claims, intellectual and other property claims, and tort claims.

In addition, because of the nature of the health care business, we are subject to a variety of legal actions relating to our business operations, including the design, management, and offering of products and services. These include and could include in the future: claims relating to the methodologies for calculating premiums; claims relating to the denial of health care benefit payments; claims relating to the denial or rescission of insurance coverage; challenges to the use of some software products used in administering claims; claims relating to our administration of our Medicare Part D offerings; medical malpractice actions brought against our employed providers or affiliated physician-owned professional groups, or against our health plans based on our medical necessity decisions or brought against us on the theory that we are liable for a third-party providers' alleged malpractice; claims arising from any adverse medical consequences resulting from our recommendations about the appropriateness of providers' proposed medical treatment plans for patients; allegations of anti-competitive and unfair business activities; provider disputes over compensation or non-acceptance or termination of provider contracts; false claims litigation, such as qui tam lawsuits, brought by individuals who seek to sue on behalf of the government, alleging that we, as a government contractor, submitted false claims to the government or retained overpayments from the government, among other allegations, resulting from coding and review practices under the Medicare risk-adjustment model; claims related to the failure to disclose some business practices; claims relating to customer audits and contract performance; claims relating to dispensing of drugs associated with our in-house dispensing pharmacies; and professional liability claims arising out of the delivery of healthcare and related services to the public.

In some cases, substantial non-economic or punitive damages as well as treble damages under the federal False Claims Act, Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and other statutes may be sought.

While we currently have insurance coverage for some of these potential liabilities, other potential liabilities may not be covered by insurance, insurers may dispute coverage, or the amount of our insurance may not be enough to cover the damages awarded. In addition, some types of damages, like punitive damages, may not be covered by insurance. In some jurisdictions, coverage of punitive damages is prohibited. Insurance coverage for all or some forms of liability may become unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the future.

The health benefits industry continues to receive significant negative publicity reflecting the public perception of the industry. This publicity and perception have been accompanied by increased litigation, including some large jury awards, legislative activity, regulation, and governmental review of industry practices. These factors may materially adversely affect our ability to market our products or services, may require us to change our products or

------

services or otherwise change our business practices, may increase the regulatory burdens under which we operate, and may require us to pay large judgments or fines. Any combination of these factors could further increase our cost of doing business and adversely affect our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

See "Legal Proceedings and Certain Regulatory Matters" in Note 17 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. We cannot predict the outcome of these matters with certainty.

***As a government contractor, we are exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect our business or our willingness or ability to participate in government health care programs.***

A significant portion of our revenues relates to federal and state government health care coverage programs, including the Medicare, military services, and Medicaid programs. These programs accounted for approximately 93% of our total premiums and services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. These programs involve various risks, as described further below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• At December 31, 2025, under our contracts with CMS we provided health insurance coverage to approximately 1.0 million individual Medicare Advantage members in Florida. These contracts accounted for approximately 14% of our total premiums and services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. The loss of these and other CMS contracts (which are generally renewed annually) or significant changes in the Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug Plan programs as a result of legislative or regulatory action, including changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design (such as the changes to plan sponsor liability across the different Part D coverage phases that began to apply in plan year 2025) or reductions in premium payments to us or increases in member benefits or changes to member eligibility criteria without corresponding increases in premium payments to us, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CMS uses a risk-adjustment model that adjusts premiums paid to Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans according to health status of covered members. The risk-adjustment model, which CMS implemented pursuant to the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) and the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA), generally pays more where a plan's membership has higher expected costs. Under this model, rates paid to MA plans are based on actuarially determined bids, which include a process whereby our prospective payments are based on our estimated cost of providing standard Medicare-covered benefits to an enrollee with a "national average risk profile." That baseline payment amount is adjusted to account for certain demographic characteristics and health status of our enrolled members. Under the risk-adjustment methodology, all MA plans must collect from providers and submit the necessary diagnosis code information to CMS within prescribed deadlines. The CMS risk-adjustment model uses the diagnosis data, collected from providers, to calculate the health status-related risk-adjusted premium payment to MA plans, which CMS further adjusts for coding pattern differences between the health plans and the government fee-for-service (FFS) program. We generally rely on providers, including certain providers in our network who are our employees, to code their claim submissions with appropriate diagnoses, which we send to CMS as the basis for our health status-adjusted payment received from CMS under the actuarial risk-adjustment model. We also rely on these providers to document appropriately all medical data, including the diagnosis data submitted with claims. In addition, we conduct medical record reviews as part of our data and payment accuracy compliance efforts, to more accurately reflect diagnosis conditions under the risk adjustment model.

CMS and the Office of the Inspector General of Health and Human Services, or HHS-OIG, perform audits of various companies' risk adjustment diagnosis data submissions. We refer to these audits as Risk-Adjustment Data Validation Audits, or RADV audits. RADV audits review medical records in an attempt to validate provider medical record documentation and coding practices that influence the calculation of health status-related premium payments to MA plans.

In 2012, CMS released an MA contract-level RADV methodology that would extrapolate the results of each CMS RADV audit sample to the audited MA contract's entire health status-related risk adjusted

------

premium amount for the year under audit. In doing so, CMS recognized "that the documentation standard used in RADV audits to determine a contract's payment error (medical records) is different from the documentation standard used to develop the Part C risk-adjustment model (FFS claims)." To correct for this difference, CMS stated that it would apply a "Fee-for-Service Adjuster (FFS Adjuster)" as "an offset to the preliminary recovery amount." This adjuster would be "calculated by CMS based on a RADV-like review of records submitted to support FFS claims data." CMS stated that this methodology would apply to audits beginning with payment year (PY) 2011. Humana relied on CMS's 2012 guidance in submitting MA bids to CMS. Humana also launched a "Self-Audits" program in 2013 that applied CMS's 2012 RADV audit methodology and included an estimated FFS Adjuster. Humana completed Self-Audits for PYs 2011-2016 and reported results to CMS.

In October 2018, however, CMS issued a proposed rule announcing possible changes to the RADV audit methodology, including elimination of the FFS Adjuster. CMS proposed (the "Proposed RADV Rule") applying its revised methodology, including extrapolated recoveries without application of a FFS Adjuster, to RADV audits dating back to PY 2011. On January 30, 2023, CMS published a final rule related to the RADV audit methodology (Final RADV Rule). The Final RADV Rule confirmed CMS's decision to eliminate the FFS Adjuster. The Final RADV Rule states CMS's intention to extrapolate results from CMS and HHS-OIG RADV audits beginning with PY 2018, rather than PY 2011 as proposed. However, CMS's Final RADV Rule does not adopt a specific sampling, extrapolation or audit methodology. CMS instead stated its general plan to rely on "any statistically valid method . . . that is determined to be well-suited to a particular audit."

We believe that the Final RADV Rule fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence and violates the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"). CMS failed to meet its legal obligations in the federal rulemaking process to give a reasoned justification for the rule or provide a meaningful opportunity for public comment. They also chose to apply the rule retroactively rather than prospectively, as required by law. Humana's actuarially certified bids through PY 2026 preserved Humana's position that CMS should apply an FFS Adjuster in any RADV audit that CMS intends to extrapolate. CMS confirmed its intent to apply the Final RADV Rule, including the first application of extrapolated audit results to determine audit settlements without the use of a FFS Adjuster, to CMS audits conducted for PY 2018 and subsequent years when it selected certain of Humana's MA contracts for PY 2018 RADV audits. Further, on May 21, 2025, CMS announced that it will conduct RADV audits for all eligible MA contracts for each payment year in all newly initiated audits and expedite the completion of RADV audits for PY 2018 through PY 2024 by early 2026. The Final RADV Rule, including the lack of a FFS Adjuster, and any related regulatory, industry or company reactions, the expansion of CMS's auditing efforts to include all eligible MA contracts, the acceleration of RADV audits for PY 2018 through PY 2024, other changes CMS may make to the RADV audit methodology for these years, and combination of these expanded auditing efforts with the application of the Final RADV Rule, could each have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

On September 1, 2023, Humana Inc. and Humana Benefit Plan of Texas, Inc. filed suit against the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and Xavier Becerra in his official capacity as Secretary, in the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division seeking a determination that the Final RADV Rule violates the APA and should be set aside. On September 25, 2025, the Court granted our motion for summary judgment and vacated the Final RADV Rule, finding that the Final RADV Rule was procedurally invalid under the APA because it was not a "logical outgrowth" of the Proposed RADV Rule. On November 21, 2025, the government notified the court of its appeal of that decision, which is now pending at the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and captioned Humana v Kennedy. There can be no assurances as to the final disposition of this lawsuit. We remain committed to working alongside CMS to promote the integrity of the MA program as well as affordability and cost certainty for our members. It is critical that MA plans are paid accurately and that payment model principles, including the application of a FFS Adjuster, are in accordance with

------

the requirements of the Social Security Act, which, if not implemented correctly could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In addition, as part of our internal compliance efforts, we routinely perform ordinary course reviews of our internal business processes related to, among other things, our risk coding and data submissions in connection with the risk adjustment model. These reviews may also result in the identification of errors and the submission of corrections to CMS that may, either individually or in the aggregate, be material. As such, the result of these reviews may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our CMS contracts which cover members' prescription drugs under Medicare Part D contain provisions for risk sharing and certain payments for prescription drug costs for which we are not at risk. These provisions, certain of which are described below, affect our ultimate payments from CMS.

The premiums from CMS are subject to risk corridor provisions which compare costs targeted in our annual bids to actual prescription drug costs, limited to actual costs that would have been incurred under the standard coverage as defined by CMS. Variances exceeding certain thresholds may result in CMS making additional payments to us or require us to refund to CMS a portion of the premiums we received (known as a "risk corridor"). We estimate and recognize an adjustment to premiums revenue related to the risk corridor payment settlement based upon pharmacy claims experience. The estimate of the settlement associated with these risk corridor provisions requires us to consider factors that may not be certain until CMS completes the applicable final payment year reconciliation, including member eligibility differences with CMS incurred allowable drug costs after rebates and other discounts, and low-income subsidy amounts.

Reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies represent payments from CMS in connection with the Medicare Part D program for which we assume no risk. Reinsurance subsidies represent payments for CMS's portion of claims costs which exceed the member's out-of-pocket threshold, or the catastrophic coverage level. Low-income cost subsidies represent payments from CMS for all or a portion of the deductible, the coinsurance and co-payment amounts above the out-of-pocket threshold for low-income beneficiaries. Monthly prospective payments from CMS for reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies are based on assumptions submitted with our annual bid. A reconciliation and settlement of CMS's prospective subsidies against actual prescription drug costs we paid is made after the end of the applicable year.

Settlement of the reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies as well as the risk corridor payment is based on a reconciliation made approximately 9 months after the close of each calendar year. This reconciliation process requires us to submit claims data necessary for CMS to administer the program. Our claims data may not pass CMS's claims edit processes due to various reasons, including discrepancies in eligibility or classification of low-income members. To the extent our data does not pass CMS's claim edit processes, we may bear the risk for all or a portion of the claim which otherwise may have been subject to the risk corridor provision or payment which we would have otherwise received as a low-income subsidy or reinsurance claim. In addition, in the event the settlement represents an amount CMS owes us, there is a negative impact on our cash flows and financial condition as a result of financing CMS's share of the risk. The opposite is true in the event the settlement represents an amount we owe CMS. Further, legislative or regulatory changes to how actual prescription drug costs are reported or calculated or other changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design may lower reinsurance or low-income cost subsidies paid by CMS and may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our primary care and home solutions businesses derive a substantial portion of their revenues from third-party payors and directly from the federal and state governments through participation in fee-for-service Medicare. This concentration of revenues subjects these businesses to reductions in Medicare

------

reimbursement rates or changes in the rules governing the Medicare program, including changes to CMS's risk adjustment model that may apply to our primary care business through its contracts with third-party payors. It is reasonably possible that such changes in reimbursement rates or changes to the Medicare programs in which our primary care and home health business participate may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to various other governmental audits and investigations. Under state laws, our HMOs and health insurance companies are audited by state departments of insurance for financial and contractual compliance. Our HMOs are audited for compliance with health services by state departments of health. Audits and investigations, including audits of risk adjustment data, are also conducted by state attorneys general, CMS, HHS-OIG, the Office of Personnel Management, the Department of Justice, the Department of Labor, and the Defense Contract Audit Agency. All of these activities could result in the loss of licensure or temporary or permanent exclusion from participating in various government health care programs (such as Medicare and Medicaid), including a limitation on our ability to market or sell products, the imposition of fines, penalties and other civil and criminal sanctions, or changes in our business practices. The outcome of any current or future governmental or internal investigations cannot be accurately predicted, nor can we predict any resulting penalties, fines or other sanctions that may be imposed at the discretion of federal or state regulatory authorities. Nevertheless, it is reasonably possible that any such outcome of litigation, penalties, fines or other sanctions could be substantial, and the outcome of these matters may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. Certain of these matters could also affect our reputation. In addition, disclosure of any adverse investigation or audit results or sanctions could negatively affect our industry or our reputation in various markets and make it more difficult for us to sell our products and services.

***Our business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase our cost of doing business and may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, or cash flows.***

*New Laws or Regulations, or Future Legislative, Judicial or Regulatory Changes*

We are and will continue to be regularly subject to new laws and regulations, changes to existing laws and regulations, and judicial determinations that impact the interpretation and applicability of those laws and regulations. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (which we collectively refer to as the Health Care Reform Law), the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (the "Families First Act"), the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "Inflation Reduction Act"), and related regulations, are examples of laws which have enacted significant reforms to various aspects of the U.S. health insurance industry, including among others, mandated coverage requirements, mandated benefits and guarantee issuance associated with commercial medical insurance, rebates to policyholders based on minimum benefit ratios, adjustments to Medicare Advantage premiums, the establishment of federally facilitated or state-based exchanges coupled with programs designed to spread risk among insurers, the introduction of plan designs based on set actuarial values, and changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design.

It is reasonably possible that these laws and regulations, as well as other current or future legislative, judicial or regulatory changes, including restrictions on our ability to manage our provider network, market and sell our products, or otherwise operate our business, or restrictions on profitability, increases in member benefits or changes to member eligibility criteria without corresponding increases in premium payments to us, further restrictions on service arrangements and fee payments between intercompany or vertically-integrated assets, increases in regulation of our prescription drug benefit businesses, or changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design (and uncertainty arising from the implementation of these changes) may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting our ability to expand into new markets, increasing our medical and operating costs, further lowering our

------

Medicare payment rates and increasing our expenses associated with assessments); our financial position (including our ability to maintain the value of our goodwill); and our cash flows.

Additionally, potential legislative changes or judicial determinations, including activities to repeal or replace these laws and regulations, including the Health Care Reform Law or declare all or certain portions of these laws and regulations unconstitutional or contrary to law, create uncertainty for our business, and we cannot predict when, or in what form, such legislative changes or judicial determinations may occur.

*Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH Act)*

The use of individually identifiable health data by our business is regulated at federal and state levels. These laws and rules are changed frequently by legislation or administrative interpretation. Various state laws address the use and maintenance of individually identifiable health data. Most are derived from the privacy provisions in the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA. HIPAA includes administrative provisions directed at simplifying electronic data interchange through standardizing transactions, establishing uniform health care provider, payer, and employer identifiers, and seeking protections for the confidentiality and security of patient data. The rules do not provide for complete federal preemption of state laws, but rather preempt all inconsistent state laws unless the state law is more stringent. These regulations set standards for the security of electronic health information, including requirements that insurers provide customers with notice regarding how their non-public personal information is used, including an opportunity to "opt out" of certain disclosures.

The HITECH Act, one part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, significantly broadened and strengthened the scope of the privacy and security regulations of HIPAA and imposes additional limits on the use and disclosure of protected health information, or PHI. Among other requirements, the HITECH Act and HIPAA requires us and other covered entities to report any unauthorized release or use of or access to PHI to any impacted individuals and to HHS in those instances where the unauthorized activity poses a significant risk of financial, reputational or other harm to the individuals, and to notify the media in any states where 500 or more people are impacted by any unauthorized release or use of or access to PHI, requires business associates to comply with certain provisions of the HIPAA privacy and security rule, and grants enforcement authority to state attorneys general in addition to the HHS Office of Civil Rights.

In addition, there are numerous federal and state laws and regulations addressing patient and consumer privacy concerns, including unauthorized access or theft of personal information. State statutes and regulations vary from state to state and could impose additional penalties. Violations of HIPAA or applicable federal or state laws or regulations could subject us to significant criminal or civil penalties, including significant monetary penalties. Compliance with HIPAA and other privacy regulations requires significant systems enhancements, training and administrative effort. HIPAA can also expose us to additional liability for violations by our business associates (e.g., entities that provide services to health plans and providers).

*Corporate Practice of Medicine and Other Laws* 

As a corporate entity, Humana Inc. is not licensed to practice medicine. Many states in which we operate through our subsidiaries limit the practice of medicine to licensed individuals or professional organizations comprised of licensed individuals, and business corporations generally may not exercise control over the medical decisions of physicians. Statutes and regulations relating to the practice of medicine, fee-splitting between physicians and referral sources, and similar issues vary widely from state to state. Under management agreements between certain of our subsidiaries and affiliated physician-owned professional groups, these groups retain sole responsibility for all medical decisions, as well as for hiring and managing physicians and other licensed healthcare providers, developing operating policies and procedures, implementing professional standards and controls, and maintaining malpractice insurance. We believe that our health services operations comply with applicable state statutes regarding corporate practice of medicine, fee-splitting, and similar issues. However, any enforcement actions by governmental officials alleging non-compliance with these statutes, which could subject us to penalties or

------

restructuring or reorganization of our business, may result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

*Anti-Kickback, Physician Self-Referral, and Other Fraud and Abuse Laws* 

We are subject to various federal and state healthcare fraud and abuse laws including the federal False Claims Act (the "False Claims Act"), the federal anti-kickback statute (the "Anti-Kickback Statute"), the federal "Stark Law," and related state laws. Potential sanctions for violating these laws include recoupment or reduction of government reimbursement amounts, civil penalties, treble damages, and exclusion from participating in the Medicare and Medicaid programs or other government healthcare programs. The False Claims Act prohibits knowingly submitting, conspiring to submit, or causing to be submitted, false claims, records, or statements to the federal government, or intentionally failing to return overpayments, in connection with reimbursement by federal government programs. The Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits the offer, payment, solicitation, or receipt of any form of remuneration to induce, or in return for, the referral of business under Medicare or other governmental health program. The Stark Law prohibits physicians from referring Medicare or Medicaid beneficiaries for certain services to any entity with which the physician, or an immediate family member of the physician, has a financial relationship, unless the financial relationship fits within a permissible exception.

Many states also have enacted laws similar in scope and purpose to the Anti-Kickback Statute and, in more limited instances, the Stark Law, that are not limited to services for which Medicare or Medicaid payment is made. In addition, most states have statutes, regulations, or professional codes that restrict a physician from accepting various kinds of remuneration in exchange for making referrals. These laws vary from state to state and have seldom been interpreted by the courts or regulatory agencies. In states that have enacted these statutes, we believe that regulatory authorities and state courts interpreting these statutes may regard federal law under the Anti-Kickback Statute and the Stark Law as persuasive.

We believe that our operations comply with the Anti-Kickback Statute, the Stark Law, and similar federal or state laws addressing fraud and abuse. These laws are subject to modification and changes in interpretation, and are enforced by authorities vested with broad discretion. We continually monitor developments in this area. If these laws are interpreted in a manner contrary to our interpretation or are reinterpreted or amended, or if new legislation is enacted with respect to healthcare fraud and abuse, illegal remuneration, or similar issues, we may be required to restructure our affected operations to maintain compliance with applicable law. There can be no assurances that any such restructuring will be possible or, if possible, would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

*State Regulation of our Products and Services*

Laws in each of the states in which we operate our HMOs, PPOs and other health insurance-related services regulate our operations including: capital adequacy and other licensing requirements, policy language describing benefits, mandated benefits and processes, entry, withdrawal or re-entry into a state or market, rate increases, delivery systems, utilization review procedures, quality assurance, complaint systems, enrollment requirements, claim payments, marketing, and advertising. The HMO, PPO, and other health insurance-related products we offer are sold under licenses issued by the applicable insurance regulators.

Our licensed insurance subsidiaries are also subject to regulation under state insurance holding company and Puerto Rico regulations. These regulations generally require, among other things, prior approval and/or notice of new products, rates, benefit changes, and certain material transactions, including dividend payments, purchases or sales of assets, intercompany agreements, and the filing of various financial and operational reports.

Certain of our healthcare services businesses require a Certificate of Need, or CON, to operate in certain states. These states restrict the entry of new providers or services and the expansion of existing providers or services in their state through a CON process, which is periodically evaluated and updated as required by applicable state law. To the extent that we require a CON or other similar approvals to expand our operations, our expansion could be adversely affected by our inability to obtain the necessary approval. To the extent laws in these CON states change,

------

including the elimination of the CON requirement, the intangible value associated with these CONs may be impaired.

***Any failure by us to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.***

As part of our business strategy, we frequently engage in discussions with third parties regarding possible investments, acquisitions, divestitures, strategic alliances, joint ventures, and outsourcing transactions and often enter into agreements relating to such transactions in order to further our business objectives. In order to pursue our acquisition strategy successfully, we must identify suitable candidates for and successfully complete transactions, some of which may be large and complex, and manage post-closing issues such as the integration of acquired companies or employees. Integration and other risks can be more pronounced for larger and more complicated transactions, transactions outside of our core business space, or if multiple transactions are pursued simultaneously. The failure to successfully integrate acquired entities and businesses or failure to produce results consistent with the financial model used in the analysis of our transactions may cause asset write-offs, restructuring costs or other expenses and may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. If we fail to identify and complete successfully transactions that further our strategic objectives, we may be required to expend resources to develop products and technology internally. In addition, from time to time, we evaluate alternatives for our businesses that do not meet our strategic, growth or profitability objectives, and we may divest or wind down such businesses. There can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any such divestiture on terms favorable to us, and the divestiture of certain businesses could result, individually or in the aggregate, in the recognition of material losses and a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

***If we fail to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to our members, our business may be adversely affected.***

We employ or contract with physicians, hospitals and other providers to deliver health care to our members. Our products encourage or require our customers to use these contracted providers. A key component of our integrated care delivery strategy is to increase the number of providers who share medical cost risk with us or have financial incentives to deliver quality medical services in a cost-effective manner.

In any particular market, providers could refuse to contract with us, demand higher payments, or take other actions that could result in higher health care costs for us, less desirable products for customers and members or difficulty meeting regulatory or accreditation requirements. In some markets, some providers, particularly hospitals, physician specialty groups, physician/hospital organizations, or multi-specialty physician groups, may have significant market positions and negotiating power. In addition, physician or practice management companies, which aggregate physician practices for administrative efficiency and marketing leverage, may compete directly with us. If these providers refuse to contract with us, use their market position to negotiate unfavorable contracts with us or place us at a competitive disadvantage, or do not enter into contracts with us that encourage the delivery of quality medical services in a cost-effective manner, our ability to market products or to be profitable in those areas may be adversely affected.

In some situations, we have contracts with individual or groups of primary care providers for an actuarially determined, fixed fee per month to provide a basket of required medical services to our members. This type of contract is referred to as a "capitation" contract. The inability of providers to properly manage costs under these capitation arrangements can result in the financial instability of these providers and the termination of their relationship with us. In addition, payment or other disputes between a primary care provider and specialists with whom the primary care provider contracts can result in a disruption in the provision of services to our members or a reduction in the services available to our members. The financial instability or failure of a primary care provider to pay other providers for services rendered could lead those other providers to demand payment from us even though we have made our regular fixed payments to the primary provider. There can be no assurance that providers with whom we contract will properly manage the costs of services, maintain financial solvency or avoid disputes with other providers. Any of these events may have a material adverse effect on the provision of services to our members and our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

------

The success of our healthcare services businesses depends on our ability, and the ability of our affiliated physician-owned professional groups and management services organizations, to recruit, hire, acquire, contract with, and retain physicians, nurses and other medical professionals who are experienced in providing care services to older adults. The market to acquire or manage physician practices, and to employ or contract with individual physicians, nurses and other medical professionals is, and is expected to remain, highly competitive, and the performance of our healthcare services businesses may be adversely impacted if we, and our affiliated physician-owned professional groups and management services organizations, are unable to attract, maintain satisfactory relationships with, and retain physicians, nurses and other medical professionals, or if these businesses are unable to retain patients following the departure of a physician, nurses or other medical professional. In addition, our healthcare services businesses contract with competitors of our health benefits businesses, and these businesses could be materially impacted if they are unable to maintain relationships with these companies, or fail to adequately negotiate the terms of their contracts with these third-party payers, including the price and other terms of fixed fee (or capitated) agreements under which our primary care business assumes the risk that the actual cost of a basket of services provided to a patient exceeds the reimbursement provided by the health plan third-party payers.

***We face significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to our success, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our businesses, operating results and/or future performance.***

Our success depends on our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified employees and executives, including those with diverse backgrounds, experiences and skill sets, to operate and expand our business. We face intense competition for qualified employees, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain such employees or that such competition among potential employers will not result in increasing salaries. In addition, while we have development and succession plans in place for our key employees and executives, these plans do not guarantee the services of our key employees and executives will continue to be available to us. If we are unable to attract, develop, retain and effectively manage the development and succession plans for key employees and executives, our business, results of operations and future performance could be adversely affected.

***Our pharmacy solutions business is highly competitive and subjects us to regulations and distribution and supply chain risks in addition to those we face with our core health benefits businesses.***

Our in-house dispensing pharmacy business competes with locally owned drugstores, retail drugstore chains, supermarkets, discount retailers, membership clubs, internet companies and other mail-order and long-term care pharmacies.

Our pharmacy solutions business also subjects us to extensive federal, state, and local regulation. The practice of pharmacy is generally regulated at the state level by state boards of pharmacy. Many of the states where we deliver pharmaceuticals, including controlled substances, have laws and regulations that require out-of-state mail-order pharmacies to register with that state's board of pharmacy. Federal agencies further regulate our pharmacy operations, requiring registration with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and individual state controlled substance authorities in order to dispense controlled substances. In addition, the FDA inspects facilities in connection with procedures to effect recalls of prescription drugs. The Federal Trade Commission also has requirements for mail-order sellers of goods. The U.S. Postal Service, or USPS, has statutory authority to restrict the transmission of drugs and medicines through the mail to a degree that may have an adverse effect on our mail-order operations. The USPS historically has exercised this statutory authority only with respect to controlled substances. If the USPS restricts our ability to deliver drugs through the mail, alternative means of delivery could be significantly more expensive. The U.S. Department of Transportation has regulatory authority to impose restrictions on drugs inserted in the stream of commerce. These regulations generally do not apply to the USPS and its operations. In addition, we are subject to CMS rules regarding the administration of our PDP plans and intercompany pricing between our PDP plans and our pharmacy business.

We are also subject to risks inherent in the packaging and distribution of pharmaceuticals and other health care products, including the application of state laws and regulations related to the operation of internet and mail-order pharmacies, violations of which could expose us to civil and criminal penalties, and manufacturing, distribution or

------

other supply chain disruptions (including disruptions that occur as a result of catastrophes, including acts of terrorism, public health emergencies, epidemics or pandemics (such as COVID-19), or natural disasters (such as hurricanes and earthquakes) which could occur more frequently or with more intense effects as a result of the impacts of global climate change), each of which could impact the availability or cost of supplying of such products.

***Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect our financial performance.*** 

Contracts in the prescription drug industry generally use certain published benchmarks to establish pricing for prescription drugs. These benchmarks include average wholesale price, which is referred to as "AWP," average selling price, which is referred to as "ASP," and wholesale acquisition cost. It is uncertain whether payors, pharmacy providers, pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, and others in the prescription drug industry will continue to utilize AWP as it has previously been calculated, or whether other pricing benchmarks will be adopted for establishing prices within the industry. Legislation may lead to changes in the pricing for Medicare and Medicaid programs. Regulators have conducted investigations into the use of AWP for federal program payment, and whether the use of AWP has inflated drug expenditures by the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Federal and state proposals have sought to change the basis for calculating payment of certain drugs by the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Adoption of ASP in lieu of AWP as the measure for determining payment by Medicare or Medicaid programs for the drugs sold in our in-house dispensing pharmacy business may reduce the revenues and gross margins of this business which may result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

***Our ability to obtain funds from certain of our licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.***

Because we operate as a holding company, we are dependent upon dividends and administrative expense reimbursements from our subsidiaries to fund the obligations of Humana Inc., our parent company. Certain of our insurance subsidiaries operate in states that regulate the payment of dividends, loans, administrative expense reimbursements or other cash transfers to Humana Inc., and require minimum levels of equity as well as limit investments to approved securities. The amount of dividends that may be paid to Humana Inc. by these insurance subsidiaries, without prior approval by state regulatory authorities, or ordinary dividends, is limited based on the entity's level of statutory income and statutory capital and surplus. In most states, prior notification is provided before paying a dividend even if approval is not required. Actual dividends paid may vary due to consideration of excess statutory capital and surplus and expected future surplus requirements related to, for example, premium volume and product mix. Dividends from our non-insurance companies such as in our CenterWell segment are generally not restricted by Departments of Insurance. In the event that we are unable to provide sufficient capital to fund the obligations of Humana Inc., our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

***Downgrades in our debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.***

Claims paying ability, financial strength, and debt ratings by recognized rating organizations are an increasingly important factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance companies. Ratings information is broadly disseminated and generally used throughout the industry. Historically, rating agencies take action to lower ratings due to, among other things, perceived concerns about liquidity or solvency, the competitive environment in the insurance industry, the inherent uncertainty in determining reserves for future claims, the outcome of pending litigation and regulatory investigations, and possible changes in the methodology or criteria applied by the rating agencies. Each of the rating agencies reviews its ratings periodically and there can be no assurance that current ratings will be maintained in the future. Our ratings reflect each rating agency's opinion of our financial strength, operating performance, and ability to meet our debt obligations or obligations to policyholders, but are not evaluations directed toward the protection of investors in our common stock and should not be relied upon as such.

We believe that certain of our customers place importance on our claims paying ability, financial strength, and debt ratings, and we may lose customers and compete less successfully if our ratings were to be downgraded. In

------

addition, our credit ratings impact our ability to obtain future borrowings and investment capital on favorable terms. If our credit ratings were to be lowered, our cost of borrowing likely would increase, our sales and earnings could decrease, and our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

***Volatility or disruption in the securities and credit markets, including changes in interest rates, may significantly and adversely affect the value of our investment portfolio and the investment income that we derive from this portfolio.***

Ongoing volatility or disruption in the securities and credit markets, including changes in interest rates, may significantly and adversely affect the value of our significant investment portfolio and the investment income that we derive from this portfolio. We evaluate our investment securities for impairment on a quarterly basis. This review is subjective and requires a high degree of judgment. For the purpose of determining gross realized gains and losses, the cost of investment securities sold is based upon specific identification. For debt securities held, we recognize an impairment loss in income when the fair value of the debt security is less than the carrying value and we have the intent to sell the debt security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of our amortized cost basis, or if a credit loss has occurred. When we do not intend to sell or are not required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position, potential credit related impairments are considered using a variety of factors, including the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, adverse conditions specifically related to the industry, geographic area or financial condition of the issuer or underlying collateral of a security; payment structure of the security; changes in credit rating of the security by the rating agencies; the volatility of the fair value changes; and changes in fair value of the security after the balance sheet date. For debt securities, we take into account expectations of relevant market and economic data. We continuously review our investment portfolios and there is a continuing risk that declines in fair value may occur and additional material realized losses from sales or credit related impairments may be recorded in future periods.

We believe our cash balances, investment securities, operating cash flows, and funds available under our credit agreement or from other public or private financing sources, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating and regulatory requirements, acquisitions, future expansion opportunities, and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months, as well as to refinance or repay debt, and repurchase shares. However, continuing adverse securities and credit market conditions may significantly affect the availability of credit. While there is no assurance in the current economic environment, we have no reason to believe the lenders participating in our credit agreement will not be willing and able to provide financing in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Our access to additional credit will depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, the general availability of credit, both to the overall market and our industry, our credit ratings and debt capacity, as well as the possibility that customers or lenders could develop a negative perception of our long or short-term financial prospects. Similarly, our access to funds could be limited if regulatory authorities or rating agencies were to take negative actions against us. If a combination of these factors were to occur, we may not be able to successfully obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

*Risk Management and Strategy*

In the ordinary course of our business, we process, store and transmit large amounts of data, and rely on third-party service providers to do the same, including sensitive personal information as well as proprietary or confidential information relating to our business or a third-party with which we do business. The protection of information and business processes is a key component of our overall risk management program, and reflected in our Code of Ethics, security standards, and privacy policies. We employ a comprehensive set of controls and defensive measures

------

designed to safeguard information and protect our customers' data, including by deploying both proactive and defensive practices against the evolving cyber threat landscape. Examples of these processes include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.Employing a qualified Chief Information Security Officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.Maintaining tools to identify malicious cyber activity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.Monitoring risks posed by threat actors, including through partnerships with industry groups and government agencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d.Providing annual cybersecurity training to our associates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e.Testing our associates' knowledge through internal phishing simulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f.Engaging an independent third-party audit firm to perform an Annual Service Organizational Controls (SOC) 2 audit of enterprise claims platforms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;g.Reporting data breaches, as required by law, to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office for Civil Rights (OCR), and various state agencies; our reports are publicly available, free of charge, and can be obtained through the OCR Portal at https://ocrportal.hhs.gov/ocr/breach.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;h.Maintaining a program to identify cybersecurity risks associated with certain third-party vendors, which is one component of an overall vendor risk management program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.Maintaining a 24/7 Cybersecurity Operations Center to monitor, detect and respond to cyber events and incidents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;j.Maintaining a program of identity and access management.

We also enhance our information technology infrastructure and security protocols to assess, identify, protect against, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats following a risk-based approach. In addition, we conduct cybersecurity risk assessments at least annually, test our preparedness through periodic audits, tabletop exercises, vulnerability scanning and penetration testing and periodically engage an independent auditor or other external assessors to aid in pro-active risk identification, prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation. Our efforts to manage against cybersecurity threats are further guided by Federal and state laws, as well as contractual commitments with third parties, which regulate our collection, use and disclosure of confidential information such as protected health information and personally identifiable information.

Although we have been subject to breaches of our information technology systems, including breaches of the information technology systems of third-party service providers, the impact of such attacks has not been material to our business strategy, operations or results of operations, financial position, or cash flows through December 31, 2025. We do not believe that cybersecurity threats resulting from any previous cybersecurity incidents of which we are aware are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company. For additional information on the risks we face from cybersecurity threats, please refer to Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

*Governance*

As part of its overall responsibility for oversight of our enterprise risk management, our Board of Directors reviews material risks to our Company, including risks from cybersecurity threats. The Board has designated our Audit Committee and Technology Committee with joint oversight over our information technology internal controls, cybersecurity, business continuity and disaster recovery programs, and emerging technology such as artificial and augmented intelligence.

Management is responsible for designing and implementing our governance framework and controls for managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats, under the oversight of our Board of Directors. Our Chief Information Security Officer is responsible for assessing and managing identified cybersecurity risks, evaluating and remediating cybersecurity incidents. Our Chief Information Security Officer reports to our Chief Information Officer, who is in turn responsible for the management of Humana's data and information technology risks more generally. Our Chief Information Officer and Chief Information Security Officer are each senior executives with more than two decades of experience leading technology teams in large, regulated industries. Our Enterprise Leadership Team, and our Chief Information Security Officer, regularly report to the Audit Committee, Technology

------

Committee, and full Board of Directors regarding our cybersecurity program, including reporting cybersecurity incidents as appropriate.

Among our cybersecurity and risk teams, we utilize established governance mechanisms to enable a transparent and holistic approach to cybersecurity risk management, and the evaluation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. These processes enable cross-functional engagement from our enterprise information protection, enterprise risk management, enterprise compliance, information technology, legal, privacy, and data governance teams.

**ITEM 2. PROPERTIES**

Our principal executive office is located in the Humana Building, 101 East Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky 40202. In addition to the headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky, we maintain other principal operating facilities used for customer service, enrollment, and/or claims processing and certain other corporate functions. Our key administrative functions are located in Louisville, Kentucky; Arlington, Virginia; and Green Bay, Wisconsin. We also have regional administrative support offices in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, New York, Tennessee and Texas.

**Executive Overview**

***General***

Humana Inc., headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, is committed to putting health first – for our teammates, our customers, and our company. Through our Humana insurance services, and our CenterWell health care services, we make it easier for the millions of people we serve to achieve their best health – delivering the care and service they need, when they need it. These efforts are leading to a better quality of life for Medicare and Medicaid participants, families, individuals, military service personnel, and communities at large.

Our industry relies on two key statistics to measure performance. The benefit ratio, which is computed by taking total benefits expense as a percentage of premiums revenue, represents a statistic used to measure underwriting profitability. The operating cost ratio, which is computed by taking total operating costs, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of total revenue less investment income, represents a statistic used to measure administrative spending efficiency.

***Employer Group Commercial Medical Products Business Exit***

During 2025, we finalized our exit from the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business, which included all fully insured, self-funded and Federal Employee Health Benefit medical plans, as well as associated wellness and rewards programs. No other Humana health plan offerings were materially affected. Following a strategic review, we determined the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business was no longer positioned to sustainably meet the needs of commercial members over the long term or support our long-term strategic plans.

***Value Creation Initiatives and Impairment Charges***

In order to create capacity to fund growth in our businesses, we committed to drive additional value for the enterprise through cost saving and productivity initiatives. In addition, in response to sustained macroeconomic, regulatory and competitive pressures impacting the industry, we initiated a substantial multi-year transformation program designed to re-align our cost structure, operating model and technology footprint with evolving market conditions.

As a result of these initiatives, we recorded charges of $449 million, $281 million and $436 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, primarily within operating costs in the consolidated statements of income. We expect to incur additional charges over the course of the program.

The value creation initiative charges primarily relate to $329 million, $25 million and $199 million in severance and other employee related charges in connection with workforce optimization in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as well as $40 million, $256 million and $237 million in asset impairments in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The remainder of the 2025 charges primarily relate to external consulting spend.

In addition, we recorded impairment charges of $253 million, $200 million and $91 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The impairment charges included impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets for $128 million, $200 million and $55 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, included within operating costs in our consolidated statements of income. The remaining impairment charges were included within investment income in our consolidated statements of income.

------

In addition to the value creation initiatives, we also recorded severance charges of $70 million in 2023 within operating costs in our consolidated statement of income as a result of our exit from the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business.

***Business Segments***

Our two reportable segments, Insurance and CenterWell, are based on a combination of the type of health plan customer and adjacent businesses centered on well-being solutions for our health plans and other customers, as described below. Our Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Decision Maker, utilizes these segment groupings and results of each segment, measured by income (loss) from operations, to assess performance and allocate resources primarily during our annual budget process and periodic forecast updates. For segment financial information, refer to Note 18 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

The Insurance segment consists of Medicare benefits, marketed to individuals or directly via group Medicare accounts, as well as our contract with CMS to administer the Limited Income Newly Eligible Transition, or LI-NET, prescription drug plan program and contracts with various states to provide Medicaid, dual eligible demonstration, and Long-Term Support Services benefits, which we refer to collectively as our state-based contracts. This segment also includes products consisting of specialty health insurance benefits marketed to individuals and employer groups, including dental, vision, and other supplemental health benefits. In addition, our Insurance segment includes our Military services business, primarily our T-5 East Region contract, as well as the operations of our PBM business.

The CenterWell segment includes our pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs.

Transactions between reportable segments primarily consist of sales of products and services rendered by our CenterWell segment, primarily pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions, to our Insurance segment customers. Intersegment sales and expenses are recorded primarily at fair value and eliminated in consolidation. Members served by our segments often use the same provider networks, enabling us in some instances to obtain more favorable contract terms with providers. Our segments also share indirect costs and assets. As a result, the profitability of each segment is interdependent. We allocate most operating expenses to our segments. Assets and certain corporate income and expenses are not allocated to the segments, including the portion of investment income not supporting segment operations, interest expense on corporate debt, and certain other corporate expenses. These items are managed at a corporate level. These corporate amounts are reported separately from our reportable segments and are included with intersegment eliminations.

***Seasonality***

Our Medicare benefit costs rise as members pay their contractual portion of claims responsibility, progress through their annual deductible and maximum out-of-pocket expenses, as well as incurring higher episodic cost of care resulting in a higher benefit ratio throughout the year.

Our quarterly Insurance segment earnings and operating cash flows are impacted by the Medicare Part D benefit design and changes in the composition of our stand-alone prescription drug plan, or PDP, membership. The Medicare Part D benefit design results in coverage that varies as a member's cumulative out-of-pocket costs pass through successive stages of a member's plan period, which begins annually on January 1 for renewals. Effective January 1, 2025, the Medicare Part D coverage gap was eliminated as mandated by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or IRA. The benefit design changes reduced out-of-pocket costs for beneficiaries, resulting in greater cost sharing and a leveling of net prescription costs throughout the year as compared to the historical seasonal decline prior to the IRA. In addition, the number of low income senior members as well as year-over-year changes in the mix of membership in our stand-alone PDP products affects the quarterly benefit ratio pattern.

------

The Insurance segment also experiences seasonality in the operating cost ratio as a result of costs incurred in the second half of the year associated with the Medicare marketing season.

***Highlights***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Our strategy is to offer our members affordable health care combined with a positive consumer experience in growing markets. At the core of this strategy is our integrated care delivery model, which unites quality care, high member engagement, and sophisticated data analytics. Our approach to primary, physician-directed care for our members aims to provide quality care that is consistent, integrated, cost-effective, and member-focused, provided by both employed physicians and physicians with network contract arrangements. The model is designed to improve health outcomes and affordability for individuals and for the health system as a whole, while offering our members a simple, seamless healthcare experience. We believe this strategy is positioning us for long-term growth in both membership and earnings. We offer providers a continuum of opportunities to increase the integration of care and offer assistance to providers in transitioning from a fee-for-service to a value-based arrangement. These include performance bonuses, shared savings and shared risk relationships. At December 31, 2025, approximately 3,586,100 members, or 68%, of our individual Medicare Advantage members were in value-based relationships under our integrated care delivery model, as compared to 3,994,300 members, or 71%, at December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Net income attributable to Humana was $1.2 billion, or $9.84 per diluted common share, and $1.2 billion, or $9.98 per diluted common share, in 2025 and 2024, respectively. This comparison was significantly impacted by put/call valuation adjustments associated with non-consolidating minority interest investments, charges associated with value creation initiatives, impairment charges, loss on sale of business and settlement of certain litigation expenses. The impact of these adjustments to our consolidated income before income taxes and equity in net earnings and diluted earnings per common share was as follows for the 2025 and 2024 periods:

***Regulatory Environment***

We are and will continue to be regularly subject to new laws and regulations, changes to existing laws and regulations, and judicial determinations that impact the interpretation and applicability of those laws and regulations. The Health Care Reform Law, the Families First Act, the CARES Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act, and related regulations, are examples of laws which have enacted significant reforms to various aspects of the U.S. health insurance industry, including, among others, mandated coverage requirements, mandated benefits and guarantee issuance associated with insurance products, rebates to policyholders based on minimum benefit ratios, adjustments to Medicare Advantage premiums, the establishment of federally facilitated or state-based exchanges coupled with programs designed to spread risk among insurers, and the introduction of plan designs based on set actuarial values, and changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design.

It is reasonably possible that these laws and regulations, as well as other current or future legislative, judicial or regulatory changes including restrictions on our ability to manage our provider network, manage and sell our products, or otherwise operate our business, or restrictions on profitability, including reviews by regulatory bodies that may compare our Medicare Advantage profitability to our non-Medicare Advantage business profitability, or compare the profitability of various products within our Medicare Advantage business, and require that they remain within certain ranges of each other, increases in member benefits or changes to member eligibility criteria without corresponding increases in premium payments to us, further restrictions on service arrangements and fee payments between intercompany or vertically-integrated assets, increases in regulation of our prescription drug benefit businesses, reductions in reimbursement rates, or changes to the Part D prescription drug benefit design (and uncertainty arising from the implementation of these changes) in the aggregate may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting our ability to expand into new markets, increasing our medical and operating costs, further lowering our Medicare payment rates and increasing our expenses associated with assessments); our financial position (including our ability to maintain the value of our goodwill); and our cash flows.

We intend for the discussion of our financial condition and results of operations that follows to assist in the understanding of our financial statements and related changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, including the primary factors that accounted for those changes. Transactions between reportable segments primarily consist of sales of products and services rendered by our CenterWell segment, primarily pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions, to our Insurance segment customers and are described in Note 18 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

(a)Represents total benefits expense as a percentage of premiums revenue.

(b)Represents total operating costs, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of total revenues less investment income.

*Premiums Revenue*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Consolidated premiums revenue increased $10.7 billion, or 9.6%, from $112.1 billion in the 2024 period to $122.8 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to higher per member Medicare premiums, largely driven by an increased direct subsidy due to the IRA, and higher per member state-based contracts premiums, as well as membership growth in the state-based contracts and stand-alone PDP businesses. These factors were partially offset by the membership decline within the individual Medicare Advantage business, inclusive of the decision to exit certain unprofitable plans and counties in 2025.

------

*Services Revenue*

Consolidated services revenue increased $1.4 billion, or 31.6%, from $4.4 billion in the 2024 period to $5.8 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to higher revenues associated with external growth in the primary care and pharmacy solutions businesses, partially offset by the impact of the v28 risk model revision impacting the primary care business.

*Investment Income*

Investment income decreased $0.2 billion, or 17.9%, from $1.2 billion in the 2024 period to $1.0 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to lower interest income on our debt securities, as well as non-cash impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2025 related to our minority ownership interest in a joint-venture investment, deemed unrecoverable based on recent market activity.

*Benefits Expense*

Consolidated benefits expense increased $10.1 billion, or 10.1%, from $100.7 billion in the 2024 period to $110.8 billion in the 2025 period. The consolidated benefit ratio increased 40 basis points from 89.8% in the 2024 period to 90.2% in the 2025 period primarily due to a shift in line of business mix resulting from growth in the state-based contracts and stand-alone PDP businesses that carry a higher benefit ratio, combined with a reduction in individual Medicare Advantage membership, incremental investments to improve member and patient outcomes and support operational excellence, and the year-over-year increase in the Medicare stand-alone PDP benefit ratio driven by the impact of the IRA. These factors were partially offset by individual Medicare Advantage pricing inclusive of plan exits and benefit design changes that more than offset claims trend and the funding environment, as well as the anticipated higher favorable prior-period medical claims development in the 2025 period.

Consolidated benefits expense included $1.0 billion of favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development in the 2025 period and $701 million of favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development in the 2024 period. Prior-period medical claims reserve development decreased the consolidated benefit ratio by approximately 80 basis points in the 2025 period and decreased the consolidated benefit ratio by approximately 60 basis points in the 2024 period. Prior-period medical claims reserve development excludes the effects of provider risk-sharing arrangements, which are accounted for separately based on contractual settlement terms.

*Operating Costs*

Our segments incur both direct and shared indirect operating costs. We allocate the indirect costs shared by the segments primarily as a function of revenues. As a result, the profitability of each segment is interdependent.

Consolidated operating costs increased $1.8 billion, or 12.8%, from $13.7 billion in the 2024 period to $15.5 billion in the 2025 period. The consolidated operating cost ratio increased 20 basis points from 11.8% in the 2024 period to 12.0% in the 2025 period primarily due to business mix changes, including within the CenterWell segment that runs a significantly higher operating cost ratio than the Insurance segment, the operating leverage impact associated with the loss of individual Medicare Advantage membership, as well as higher charges associated with the value creation plan. These factors were partially offset by administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the value creation initiatives, operating leverage associated with increased revenues from the impact of the IRA, and a lesser operating cost impact from impairment costs in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period.

*Depreciation and Amortization*

Depreciation and amortization decreased $141 million, or 16.8%, from $839 million in the 2024 period to $698 million in the 2025 period primarily due to decreased capital spending.

*Interest Expense*

Interest expense decreased $29 million, or 4.4%, from $660 million in the 2024 period to $631 million in the 2025 period primarily due to decrease in interest rates and average debt balances.

------

*Income Taxes*

Our effective tax rate was 17.4% and 25.5% for the 2025 period and 2024 period, respectively. The 2025 period effective income tax rate reflects the impact of a tax loss on sale of business, which exceeded the book loss. The related tax benefit is realizable via capital loss carryback. For a complete reconciliation of the federal statutory rate to the effective tax rate, refer to Note 12 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

*Income from operations*

Insurance segment income from operations increased $0.4 billion, or 29.1%, from $1.3 billion in the 2024 period to $1.7 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to the same factors impacting the Insurance segment's benefit and operating cost ratios as more fully described below.

------

*Enrollment*

Individual Medicare Advantage membership decreased 412,500 members, or 7.3%, from 5,661,800 members as of December 31, 2024 to 5,249,300 members as of December 31, 2025 inclusive of the decision to exit certain unprofitable plans and counties in 2025. Individual Medicare Advantage membership includes 760,500 D-SNP members as of December 31, 2025, a net decrease of 176,600 D-SNP members, or 18.8%, from 937,100 members as of December 31, 2024. For the full year 2026, we anticipate net membership growth in our individual Medicare Advantage offerings of approximately 25%.

Group Medicare Advantage membership increased 22,700 members, or 4.2%, from 545,700 members as of December 31, 2024 to 568,400 members as of December 31, 2025 consistent with expectations as we maintain pricing discipline in a competitive market. For the full year 2026, we anticipate net membership growth in our group Medicare Advantage offerings of approximately 150,000 members.

Medicare stand-alone PDP membership increased 174,400 members, or 7.6%, from 2,288,200 members as of December 31, 2024 to 2,462,600 members as of December 31, 2025 reflecting shifting competitive dynamics. For the full year 2026, we anticipate net membership growth in our Medicare stand-alone PDP offerings of approximately 1,000,000 members.

State-based contracts and other membership increased 155,700 members, or 10.7%, from 1,459,900 members as of December 31, 2024 to 1,615,600 members as of December 31, 2025 primarily due to the Virginia contract implemented in 2025 and the allocation of additional membership in Kentucky. For the full year 2026, we anticipate net membership growth in our state-based contracts of in a range of 25,000 to 100,000 members.

Specialty membership increased 180,600 members, or 4.0%, from 4,562,000 members as of December 31, 2024 to 4,742,600 members as of December 31, 2025 primarily reflecting growth in group dental and vision products.

*Premiums revenue*

Insurance segment premiums revenue increased $10.7 billion, or 9.6%, from $112.1 billion in the 2024 period to $122.8 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to higher per member Medicare premiums, largely driven by an increased direct subsidy due to the IRA, and higher per member state-based contracts premiums, as well as membership growth in the state-based contracts and stand-alone PDP businesses. These factors were partially offset by the membership decline within the individual Medicare Advantage business, inclusive of the decision to exit certain unprofitable plans and counties in 2025.

*Services revenue*

Insurance segment services revenue increased $0.1 billion, or 5.3%, from $966 million in the 2024 period to $1 billion in the 2025 period.

*Benefits expense*

The Insurance segment benefit ratio was unchanged at 90.4% in the 2024 and 2025 periods primarily due to a shift in line of business mix resulting from growth in the state-based contracts and stand-alone PDP businesses that carry a higher benefit ratio, combined with a reduction in individual Medicare Advantage membership, incremental investments to improve member and patient outcomes and support operational excellence, and the year-over-year increase in the Medicare stand-alone PDP benefit ratio driven by the impact of the IRA. These factors were offset by individual Medicare Advantage pricing inclusive of plan exits and benefit design changes that more than offset claims trend and the funding environment, as well as the anticipated higher favorable prior-period medical claims development in the 2025 period.

The Insurance segment benefits expense included $1.0 billion of favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development in the 2025 period and $701 million of favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development in the 2024 period. Prior-period medical claims reserve development decreased the Insurance segment benefit ratio by approximately 80 basis points in the 2025 period and decreased the Insurance segment benefit ratio by

------

approximately 60 basis points in the 2024 period. Prior-period medical claims reserve development excludes the effects of provider risk-sharing arrangements, which are accounted for separately based on contractual settlement terms.

*Operating costs*

The Insurance segment operating cost ratio decreased 10 basis points from 9.2% in the 2024 period to 9.1% in the 2025 period primarily due to administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the value creation initiatives and operating leverage associated with increased revenues from the impact of the IRA. These factors were partially offset by the operating leverage impact associated with the loss of individual Medicare Advantage membership.

*Income from operations*

CenterWell income from operations was relatively unchanged at $1.3 billion in the 2024 and 2025 periods, reflecting the same factors impacting the CenterWell segment's revenue and operating cost ratio as more fully described below.

*Services revenue*

CenterWell services revenue increased $1.4 billion, or 39.0%, from $3.5 billion in the 2024 period to $4.8 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to higher revenues associated with growth in the primary care and pharmacy solutions businesses, partially offset by the impact of the v28 risk model revision impacting the primary care business.

*Intersegment revenues*

CenterWell intersegment revenues increased $1.2 billion, or 7.2%, from $16.5 billion in the 2024 period to $17.7 billion in the 2025 period primarily due to higher revenues associated with growth in the pharmacy solutions business.

*Operating costs*

The CenterWell segment operating cost ratio increased 90 basis points from 92.2% in the 2024 period to 93.1% in the 2025 period primarily resulting from the continued phase-in of the v28 risk model revision within the primary care business, as well as the uptick of volume within CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy that carries a higher operating cost ratio than the traditional pharmacy business. These factors were partially offset by continued maturation of the v28 mitigation activities within the primary are business and administrative cost efficiencies resulting from the value creation initiatives.

**Liquidity**

Historically, our primary sources of cash have included receipts of premiums, services revenue, and investment and other income, as well as proceeds from the sale or maturity of our investment securities, and borrowings. Our primary uses of cash historically have included disbursements for claims payments, operating costs, interest on

------

borrowings, taxes, purchases of investment securities, acquisitions, capital expenditures, repayments on borrowings, dividends, and share repurchases. As premiums generally are collected in advance of claim payments by a period of up to several months, our business normally should produce positive cash flows during periods of increasing premiums and enrollment. Conversely, cash flows would be negatively impacted during periods of decreasing premiums and enrollment. From period to period, our cash flows may also be affected by the timing of working capital items including premiums receivable, benefits payable, and other receivables and payables. Our cash flows are impacted by the timing of payments to and receipts from CMS associated with Medicare Part D subsidies for which we do not assume risk. The use of cash flows may be limited by regulatory requirements of state departments of insurance (or comparable state regulators) which require, among other items, that our regulated subsidiaries maintain minimum levels of capital and seek approval before paying dividends from the subsidiaries to the parent. Our use of cash flows derived from our non-insurance subsidiaries, such as in our CenterWell segment, is generally not restricted by state departments of insurance (or comparable state regulators).

For additional information on our liquidity risk, please refer to Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $4.2 billion at December 31, 2025 from $2.2 billion at December 31, 2024. The change in cash and cash equivalents for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 is summarized as follows:

***Cash Flow from Operating Activities***

Cash flows provided by operations of $0.9 billion in the 2025 period decreased $2.0 billion from cash flows provided by operations of $3.0 billion in the 2024. The decrease in our operating cash flows primarily reflected timing impacts, including the year-over-year increase in receivables due to the IRA and the unfavorable impact of working capital items.

The most significant drivers of changes in our working capital are typically the timing of payments of benefits expense and receipts for premiums. Benefits expense includes claim payments, capitation payments, pharmacy costs net of rebates, allocations of certain centralized expenses and various other costs incurred to provide health insurance coverage to members, as well as estimates of future payments to hospitals and others for medical care and other supplemental benefits provided on or prior to the balance sheet date. For additional information regarding our benefits payable and benefits expense recognition, refer to Note 2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

The detail of total net receivables (exclusive of Part D IRA impacts) was as follows at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

---

The changes in Medicare receivables for the 2025 period reflects higher per member Medicare premiums, partially offset by lower individual Medicare Advantage membership. The change in Medicare receivables for the 2024 period reflects individual Medicare Advantage membership growth. In addition, both periods further reflect the typical pattern caused by the timing of accruals and related collections associated with the CMS risk-adjustment model. Significant collections occur with the mid-year and final settlements with CMS in the second and third quarter.

***Cash Flow from Investing Activities***

During the 2025, 2024 and 2023 periods, we acquired various businesses for approximately $81 million, $89 million and $233 million, respectively, net of cash and cash equivalents received. Net proceeds from the sale of business were $115 million in the 2025 period.

Our ongoing capital expenditures primarily relate to our information technology initiatives, support of services in our primary care operations including medical and administrative facility improvements necessary for activities such as the provision of care to members, claims processing, billing and collections, wellness solutions, care coordination, regulatory compliance and customer service. Total net capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, were $523 million, $568 million and $794 million in the 2025, 2024 and 2023 periods, respectively.

Net proceeds of investment securities were $2.8 billion in the 2025 period. Net purchases of investment securities were $2.2 billion and $2.5 billion in the 2024 and 2023 periods, respectively.

------

***Cash Flow from Financing Activities***

Our financing cash flows are significantly impacted by the timing of claims payments and the related receipts from CMS associated with Medicare Part D claim subsidies for which we do not assume risk. Monthly prospective payments from CMS for reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies are based on assumptions submitted with our annual bid. Settlement of the reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies is based on a reconciliation made approximately 9 months after the close of each calendar year. Claim payments were higher than receipts from CMS associated with Medicare Part D claim subsidies for which we do not assume risk by $1 billion and $1.8 billion in the 2025 and 2024 periods, respectively, and receipts from CMS associated with Medicare Part D claim subsidies for which we do not assume risk were higher than claim payments by $0.8 billion in the 2023 period. Our net receivable from CMS for subsidies and brand name prescription drug discounts was $1.5 billion at December 31, 2025 compared to a net receivable of $530 million at December 31, 2024.

Under our administrative services only TRICARE contract, health care costs payments for which we do not assume risk exceeded reimbursements from the federal government by $74 million and $92 million in the 2025 and 2024 periods, respectively, and reimbursements from the federal government exceeded health care costs payments for which we do not assume risk by $57 million in the 2023 period.

In March 2025, we issued $750 million of 5.550% unsecured senior notes due May 1, 2035, $500 million of 6.000% unsecured senior notes due May 1, 2055, and an additional $250 million of our existing 5.375% unsecured senior notes due April 15, 2031.

We repaid the remaining $559 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.850% senior notes on their maturity date of October 1, 2024.

We participate in a securities lending program where we loan certain investment securities for short periods of time in exchange for collateral. Net proceeds from the securities lending program were $220 million and $418 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. We have previously entered into an uncommitted receivables purchase facility under which certain pharmaceutical rebate receivables may be sold on a non-recourse basis to a financial institution. Net repayments from the uncommitted receivables purchase facility were $123 million in 2025. Net proceeds provided by the uncommitted receivables purchase facility were $123 million in 2024.

For a detailed discussion of stock repurchases, please refer to Note 16 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

***Debt***

For a detailed discussion of our debt, including our senior notes, term loans, revolving credit agreements, commercial paper program and other short-term borrowings, please refer to Note 13 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

------

***Acquisitions & Divestitures***

For a detailed discussion regarding acquisitions and divestitures, refer to Note 3 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

***Liquidity Requirements***

We believe our cash balances, investment securities, operating cash flows, and funds available under our credit agreement and our commercial paper program or from other public or private financing sources, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating and regulatory requirements, acquisitions, future expansion opportunities, and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months, as well as to refinance or repay debt, and repurchase shares.

Adverse changes in our credit rating may increase the rate of interest we pay and may impact the amount of credit available to us in the future. Our investment-grade credit rating at December 31, 2025 was BBB according to Standard & Poor's Rating Services, or S&P, and Baa2 according to Moody's Investors Services, Inc., or Moody's. A downgrade by S&P to BB+ or by Moody's to Ba1 triggers an interest rate increase of 25 basis points with respect to $250 million of our senior notes. Successive one notch downgrades increase the interest rate an additional 25 basis points, or annual interest expense by approximately $1 million, up to a maximum 100 basis points, or annual interest expense by approximately $3 million.

In addition, we operate as a holding company in a highly regulated industry. Humana Inc., our parent company, is dependent upon dividends and administrative expense reimbursements from our subsidiaries, most of which are subject to regulatory restrictions. We continue to maintain significant levels of aggregate excess statutory capital and surplus in our state-regulated operating subsidiaries. Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments at the parent company were $1.5 billion at December 31, 2025 compared to $0.6 billion at December 31, 2024. This increase primarily reflects working capital changes, net proceeds from the issuance of senior notes, and proceeds from sale of business, partially offset by repayments of senior notes, capital contributions to certain subsidiaries, cash dividends to shareholders, capital expenditures, and common stock repurchases. Our use of operating cash derived from our non-insurance subsidiaries, such as our CenterWell segment, is generally not restricted by departments of insurance (or comparable state regulators). Our regulated insurance subsidiaries paid dividends to our parent company of $1.1 billion in 2025, $1.5 billion in 2024, and $1.8 billion in 2023. Subsidiary capital requirements from significant premium growth may impact the amount of regulated subsidiary dividends. Refer to our parent company financial statements and accompanying notes in Schedule I - Parent Company Financial Information. The amount of ordinary dividends that may be paid to our parent company in 2026 is approximately $1.1 billion, in the aggregate. Actual dividends paid may vary due to consideration of excess statutory capital and surplus and expected future surplus requirements related to, for example, premium volume and product mix.

On February 13, 2026, we completed the acquisition of a primary care business for consideration of approximately $941 million.

***Regulatory Requirements***

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements and accompanying notes requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We continuously evaluate our estimates and those critical accounting policies primarily related to benefits expense and revenue recognition as well as accounting for impairments related to our investment securities, goodwill, indefinite-lived and long-lived assets. These estimates are based on knowledge of current events and anticipated future events and, accordingly, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

***Benefits Expense Recognition***

Benefits expense is recognized in the period in which services are provided and includes an estimate of the cost of services which have been incurred but not yet reported, or IBNR. Our reserving practice is to consistently recognize the actuarial best point estimate within a level of confidence required by actuarial standards. For further discussion of our reserving methodology, including our use of completion and claims per member per month trend factors to estimate IBNR, refer to Note 2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

The completion and claims per member per month trend factors are the most significant factors impacting the IBNR estimate. The portion of IBNR estimated using completion factors for claims incurred prior to the most recent two months is generally less variable than the portion of IBNR estimated using trend factors. The following table illustrates the sensitivity of these factors, experience and the estimated potential impact on our operating results caused by reasonably likely changes in these factors based on December 31, 2025 data:

The following table summarizes the changes in estimate for incurred claims related to prior years attributable to our key assumptions. As previously described, our key assumptions consist of trend and completion factors. The amounts below represent the difference between our original estimates and the actual benefits expense ultimately incurred as determined from subsequent claim payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The factor change indicated represents the percentage point change.

As previously discussed, our reserving practice is to consistently recognize the actuarial best estimate of our ultimate liability for claims, which generally results in favorable reserve development, or reserves that are considered redundant. We experienced favorable medical claims reserve development related to prior fiscal years of $1.0 billion in 2025, $701 million in 2024, and $872 million in 2023.

The favorable medical claims reserve development for 2025, 2024, and 2023 primarily reflects the consistent application of trend and completion factors.

------

Our favorable development for each of the years presented above is discussed further in Note 11 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

We continually adjust our historical trend and completion factor experience with our knowledge of recent events that may impact current trends and completion factors when establishing our reserves. Because our reserving practice is to consistently recognize the actuarial best point estimate as required by actuarial standards, there is a reasonable possibility that variances between actual trend and completion factors and those assumed in our December 31, 2025 estimates would fall within the ranges previously presented in our sensitivity table.

***Revenue Recognition***

Our Medicare contracts with CMS renew annually. We generally establish one-year specialty membership contracts, subject to cancellation on a 30-day written notice. Our military services contracts with the federal government and certain contracts with various state Medicaid programs generally are multi-year contracts subject to annual renewal provisions.

We receive monthly premiums from the federal government and various states according to government specified payment rates and various contractual terms. We bill and collect member premiums on a monthly basis. Changes in Medicare premium revenues resulting from the periodic changes in risk-adjustment scores derived from medical diagnoses for our membership are estimated by projecting the ultimate annual premium and recognized ratably during the year with adjustments each period to reflect changes in the ultimate premium.

Premiums revenue is estimated by multiplying the membership covered under the various contracts by the contractual rates. Premiums revenue is recognized as income in the period members are entitled to receive services, and is net of estimated uncollectible amounts, retroactive membership adjustments, and adjustments to recognize rebates under the minimum benefit ratios required under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which we collectively refer to as the Health Care Reform Law. Medicare Advantage and Medicaid products are subject to minimum benefit ratio requirements. Estimated calendar year rebates recognized ratably during the year are revised each period to reflect current experience. Retroactive membership adjustments result from enrollment changes not yet processed, or not yet reported by the federal government and various states. We routinely monitor the collectability of specific accounts, the aging of receivables, historical retroactivity trends, estimated rebates, as well as prevailing and anticipated economic conditions, and reflect any required adjustments in current operations. Premiums received prior to the service period are recorded as unearned revenues.

------

*Medicare Risk-Adjustment Provisions* 

CMS uses a risk-adjustment model that adjusts premiums paid to Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans according to health status of covered members. The risk-adjustment model, which CMS implemented pursuant to the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) and the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA), generally pays more where a plan's membership has higher expected costs. Under this model, rates paid to MA plans are based on actuarially determined bids, which include a process whereby our prospective payments are based on our estimated cost of providing standard Medicare-covered benefits to an enrollee with a "national average risk profile." That baseline payment amount is adjusted to account for certain demographic characteristics and health status of our enrolled members. Under the risk-adjustment methodology, all MA plans must collect from providers and submit the necessary diagnosis code information to CMS within prescribed deadlines. The CMS risk-adjustment model uses the diagnosis data, collected from providers, to calculate the health status-related risk-adjusted premium payment to MA plans, which CMS further adjusts for coding pattern differences between the health plans and the government fee-for-service (FFS) program. We generally rely on providers, including certain providers in our network who are our employees, to code their claim submissions with appropriate diagnoses, which we send to CMS as the basis for our health status-adjusted payment received from CMS under the actuarial risk-adjustment model. We also rely on these providers to document appropriately all medical data, including the diagnosis data submitted with claims. In addition, we conduct medical record reviews as part of our data and payment accuracy compliance efforts, to more accurately reflect diagnosis conditions under the risk adjustment model. For additional information, refer to Note 17 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

***Investment Securities***

Investment securities totaled $16.2 billion, or 33% of total assets at December 31, 2025, and $18.6 billion, or 40% of total assets at December 31, 2024. The investment portfolio was primarily comprised of debt securities, detailed below, at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The fair value of investment securities were as follows at December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Approximately 97% of our debt securities were investment-grade quality, with a weighted average credit rating of AA- by S&P at December 31, 2025. Most of the debt securities that were below investment-grade were rated B. Tax-exempt municipal securities were diversified among general obligation bonds of states and local municipalities in the United States as well as special revenue bonds issued by municipalities to finance specific public works projects such as utilities, water and sewer, transportation, or education. Our general obligation bonds are diversified across the United States with no individual state exceeding approximately 1% of our total debt securities. Our investment policy limits investments in a single issuer and requires diversification among various asset types.

Under the current expected credit losses model, or CECL, credit losses on available for sale debt securities are recognized through an allowance for credit losses rather than as reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. For debt securities whose fair value is less than their amortized cost which we do not intend to sell or are not required to sell, we evaluate the expected cash flows to be received as compared to amortized cost and determine if an expected credit loss has occurred. In the event of an expected credit loss, only the amount of the impairment associated with the expected credit loss is recognized in income with the remainder, if any, of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income. To the extent we have the intent to sell the debt security or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of our amortized cost basis, we recognize an impairment loss in income in an amount equal to the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

Potential expected credit loss impairment is considered using a variety of factors, including the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost; adverse conditions specifically related to the industry, geographic area or financial condition of the issuer or underlying collateral of a debt security; changes in the quality of the debt security's credit enhancement; payment structure of the debt security; changes in credit rating of the debt security by the rating agencies; failure of the issuer to make scheduled principal or interest payments on the debt security and changes in prepayment speeds. For debt securities, we take into account expectations of relevant market and economic data. For example, with respect to mortgage and asset-backed securities, such data includes underlying loan level data and structural features such as seniority and other forms of credit enhancements. We estimate the amount of the expected credit loss component of a debt security as the difference between the amortized cost and the present value of the expected cash flows of the security. The present value is determined using the best estimate of future cash flows discounted at the implicit interest rate at the date of purchase. The expected credit loss cannot exceed the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

We participate in a securities lending program to optimize investment income. We loan certain investment securities for short periods of time in exchange for collateral initially equal to at least 102% of the fair value of the investment securities on loan. The fair value of the loaned investment securities is monitored on a daily basis, with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the fair value of the loaned investment securities fluctuates. The collateral, which may be in the form of cash or U.S. Government securities, is deposited by the borrower with an independent lending agent. Any cash collateral, which is reinvested by the lending agent primarily in short-term, highly liquid investments, is recorded as a securities lending collateral asset within other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. We record a corresponding liability to reflect our

------

obligation to return the collateral within trade accounts payable and accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. Collateral received in the form of securities is not recorded in our consolidated balance sheets because, absent default by the borrower, we do not have the right to sell, pledge or otherwise reinvest securities collateral. Loaned securities continue to be carried as investment securities on the consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. Earnings on the invested cash collateral, net of expense, associated with the securities lending payable are recorded as investment income.

The risks inherent in assessing the impairment of an investment include the risk that market factors may differ from our expectations, facts and circumstances factored into our assessment may change with the passage of time, or we may decide to subsequently sell the investment. The determination of whether a decline in the value of an investment is related to a credit event requires us to exercise significant diligence and judgment. The discovery of new information and the passage of time can significantly change these judgments. The status of the general economic environment and significant changes in the national securities markets influence the determination of fair value and the assessment of investment impairment. There is a continuing risk that declines in fair value may occur and additional material realized losses from sales or expected credit loss impairments may be recorded in future periods.

All issuers of debt securities we own that were trading at an unrealized loss at December 31, 2025 remain current on all contractual payments. After taking into account these and other factors previously described, we believe these unrealized losses primarily were caused by an increase in market interest rates in the current markets since the time these debt securities were purchased. At December 31, 2025, we did not intend to sell any debt securities with an unrealized loss position in accumulated other comprehensive income, and it is not likely that we will be required to sell these debt securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. Additionally, we did not record any material credit allowances for debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2025, 2024 or 2023.

***Goodwill, Indefinite-lived and Long-lived Assets***

At December 31, 2025, goodwill, indefinite-lived and other long-lived assets represented 27% of total assets and 74% of total stockholders' equity, compared to 29% and 83%, respectively, at December 31, 2024. The decrease in goodwill, indefinite-lived and other long-lived assets as a percentage of total assets is primarily attributable to the increase in cash and cash equivalents and other assets, partially offset by the decrease in investment securities. The decrease in goodwill, indefinite-lived and other long-lived assets as a percentage of total stockholders' equity is primarily attributable to the increase in retained earnings and the decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

For goodwill, we are required to test at least annually for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as the reporting unit, and more frequently if adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. A reporting unit either is our operating segments or one level below the operating segments, referred to as a component, which comprise our reportable segments. A component is considered a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by management. We are required to aggregate the components of an operating segment into one reporting unit if they have similar economic characteristics. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit that is expected to benefit from a specific acquisition.

We perform a quantitative assessment to review goodwill for impairment to determine both the existence and amount of goodwill impairment, if any. Our strategy, long-range business plan, and annual planning process support our goodwill impairment tests. These tests are performed, at a minimum, annually in the fourth quarter, and are based on an evaluation of future discounted cash flows. We rely on this discounted cash flow analysis to determine fair value. However, outcomes from the discounted cash flow analysis are compared to other market approach valuation methodologies for reasonableness. We use discount rates that correspond to a market-based weighted-average cost of capital and terminal growth rates that correspond to long-term growth prospects, consistent with the long-term inflation rate. Key assumptions in our cash flow projections, including changes in membership, premium yields, medical and operating cost trends, and certain government contract extensions, are consistent with those utilized in our long-range business plan and annual planning process. If these assumptions differ from actual, including the impact of the Health Care Reform Law or changes in government reimbursement rates, the estimates

------

underlying our goodwill impairment tests could be adversely affected. The fair value of our reporting units with significant goodwill exceeded carrying amounts by a substantial margin. However, unfavorable changes in key assumptions or combinations of assumptions including a significant increase in the discount rate, decrease in the long-term growth rate or substantial reduction in our underlying cash flow assumptions, including revenue expectations and growth rates, operating cost trends, and projected operating income could have a significant negative impact on the estimated fair value of our home solutions reporting unit, which accounted for $4.4 billion of goodwill. Impairment tests completed for 2025, 2024, and 2023 did not result in an impairment loss.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets relate to Certificate of Needs (CON) and Medicare licenses acquired in connection with our CenterWell Home Health (formerly Kindred at Home) acquisition with a carrying value of $1.1 billion at December 31, 2025. Like goodwill, we are required to test at least annually for impairment and more frequently if adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. These tests are performed, at a minimum, annually in the fourth quarter. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are determined based on the income approach. For our CON intangible assets, unfavorable changes in key assumptions or combinations of assumptions, including a significant increase in the discount rate, decrease in the long-term growth rate or substantial reduction in the underlying cash flow assumptions, including revenue growth rates, operating cost trends, and projected operating income could have a significant negative impact on the estimated fair value of our CON intangible assets, which account for $790 million of our intangible assets. Impairment tests completed on our indefinite-lived intangible assets for 2025, 2024 and 2023 resulted in impairment charges of $128 million, $200 million and $55 million, respectively. These charges reflect the amount by which the carrying value exceeded its estimated fair value. The fair values of the assets were measured using Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues and operating cash flows.

Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment and other definite-lived intangible assets. These assets are depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful life, and are subject to impairment reviews. We periodically review long-lived assets whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In assessing recoverability, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine if an impairment loss may exist, and, if so, estimate fair value. We also must estimate and make assumptions regarding the useful life we assign to our long-lived assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment losses or change the useful life, including accelerating depreciation or amortization for these assets. Other than the impairment charges as described in Footnote 2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K, there were no other impairment losses in the last three years.

**ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

Our earnings and financial position are exposed to financial market risk, including those resulting from changes in interest rates.

The level of our pretax earnings is subject to market risk due to changes in interest rates and the resulting impact on investment income and interest expense. We have entered into interest-rate swap agreements with major financial institutions to convert our interest-rate exposure on some of our senior notes payable from fixed rates to variable rates, based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), to align interest costs more closely with floating interest rates received on our cash equivalents and investment securities Under the revolving credit agreements, at our option, we can borrow on either a competitive advance basis or a revolving credit basis. The revolving credit portion bears interest at either Term SOFR or the base rate plus a spread. The competitive advance portion of any borrowings will bear interest at market rates prevailing at the time of borrowing on either a fixed rate or a floating rate based on Term SOFR, at our option. There were no borrowings outstanding under our credit agreements at December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Interest rate risk also represents a market risk factor affecting our consolidated financial position due to our significant investment portfolio, consisting primarily of fixed maturity securities of investment-grade quality with a weighted average S&P credit rating of AA- at December 31, 2025. Our net unrealized loss position decreased $562

------

million from a net unrealized loss position of $1.4 billion at December 31, 2024 to a net unrealized loss position of $0.8 billion at December 31, 2025. At December 31, 2025, we had gross unrealized losses of $0.9 billion on our investment portfolio primarily due to an increase in market interest rates since the time the securities were purchased. We did not record any material credit allowances for debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position during 2025 and 2024. While we believe that these impairments will be recovered and we currently do not have the intent to sell such securities, given the current market conditions and the significant judgments involved, there is a continuing risk that future declines in fair value may occur and material realized losses from sales or credit loss impairments may be recorded in future periods.

Duration is the time-weighted average of the present value of the bond portfolio's cash flow. Duration is indicative of the relationship between changes in fair value and changes in interest rates, providing a general indication of the sensitivity of the fair values of our fixed maturity securities to changes in interest rates. However, actual fair values may differ significantly from estimates based on duration. The average duration of our investment portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents, was approximately 3.6 years as of December 31, 2025 and 3.8 years as of December 31, 2024. Based on the duration including cash equivalents, a 1% increase in interest rates would generally decrease the December 31, 2025 fair value of our securities by approximately $723 million.

We have also evaluated the impact on our investment income and interest expense resulting from a hypothetical change in interest rates of 100, 200, and 300 basis points over the next twelve-month period, as reflected in the following table. The evaluation was based on our investment portfolio, outstanding indebtedness, and outstanding swap contract portfolio at December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our investment portfolio consists of cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities. The modeling technique used to calculate the pro forma net change in pretax earnings considered the cash flows related to fixed income investments and debt, which are subject to interest rate changes during a prospective twelve-month period. This evaluation measures parallel shifts in interest rates and may not account for certain unpredictable events that may affect interest income, including unexpected changes of cash flows into and out of the portfolio, changes in the asset allocation, including shifts between taxable and tax-exempt securities, spread changes specific to various investment categories and the mix of short-term versus long-term debt. In the past ten years, changes in 10 year US treasury rates during the year have not exceeded 300 basis points, have changed between 200 and 300 basis points one time, have changed between 100 and 200 basis points five times, and have changed by less than 100 basis points four times.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1. REPORTING ENTITY**

***Nature of Operations***

Humana Inc., headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, is committed to putting health first – for our teammates, our customers, and our company. Through our Humana insurance services, and our CenterWell health care services, we make it easier for the millions of people we serve to achieve their best health – delivering the care and service they need, when they need it. These efforts are leading to a better quality of life for Medicare and Medicaid participants, families, individuals, military service personnel, and communities at large. References throughout these notes to consolidated financial statements to "we," "us," "our," "Company," and "Humana," mean Humana Inc. and its subsidiaries. We derived approximately 83% of our total premiums and services revenue from contracts with the federal government in 2025, including 14% related to our federal government contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, to provide health insurance coverage for individual Medicare Advantage members in Florida. CMS is the federal government's agency responsible for administering the Medicare program.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Presentation***

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Humana Inc. and subsidiaries that the Company controls, including variable interest entities associated with medical practices for which we are the primary beneficiary. We do not own many of our medical practices but instead enter into exclusive management agreements with the affiliated Professional Associations, or P.A.s, that operate these medical practices. Based upon the provisions of these agreements, these affiliated P.A.s are variable interest entities and we are the primary beneficiary, and accordingly we consolidate the affiliated P.A.s. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The areas involving the most significant use of estimates are the estimation of benefits payable, the impact of risk adjustment provisions related to our Medicare contracts, the valuation and related impairment recognition of investment securities, and the valuation and related impairment recognition of long-lived assets, including goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. These estimates are based on knowledge of current events and anticipated future events, and accordingly, actual results may ultimately differ materially from those estimates.

***Employer Group Commercial Medical Products Business Exit***

During 2025, we finalized our exit from the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business, which included all fully insured, self-funded and Federal Employee Health Benefit medical plans, as well as associated wellness and rewards programs. No other Humana health plan offerings were materially affected. Following a strategic review, we determined the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business was no longer positioned to sustainably meet the needs of commercial members over the long term or support our long-term strategic plans.

***Value Creation Initiatives and Impairment Charges***

In order to create capacity to fund growth in our businesses, we committed to drive additional value for the enterprise through cost saving and productivity initiatives. In addition, in response to sustained macroeconomic, regulatory and competitive pressures impacting the industry, we initiated a substantial multi-year transformation program designed to re-align our cost structure, operating model and technology footprint with evolving market conditions.

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

As a result of these initiatives, we recorded charges of $449 million, $281 million and $436 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, primarily within operating costs in the consolidated statements of income. We expect to incur additional charges over the course of the program.

The value creation initiative charges primarily relate to $329 million, $25 million and $199 million in severance and other employee related charges in connection with workforce optimization in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as well as $40 million, $256 million and $237 million in asset impairments in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The remainder of the 2025 charges primarily relate to external consulting spend.

In addition, we recorded impairment charges of $253 million, $200 million and $91 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The impairment charges included impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets for $128 million, $200 million and $55 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, included within operating costs in our consolidated statements of income. The remaining impairment charges were included within investment income in our consolidated statements of income.

In addition to the value creation initiatives, we also recorded severance charges of $70 million in 2023 within operating costs in our consolidated statement of income as a result of our exit from the Employer Group Commercial Medical Products business.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, time deposits, money market funds, commercial paper, other money market instruments, and certain U.S. Government securities with an original maturity of three months or less. Carrying value approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of the investments.

***Investment Securities***

Investment securities, which consist of debt securities, are stated at fair value. Our debt securities have been categorized as available for sale. Debt securities available for current operations, as well as our equity securities, are classified as current assets, and debt securities available to fund our professional and other self-insurance liability requirements, as well as restricted statutory deposits, are classified as long-term assets. For the purpose of determining realized gross gains and losses for debt securities sold, that are included as a component of investment income in the consolidated statements of income, the cost of investment securities sold is based upon specific identification. Unrealized holding gains and losses for debt securities, net of applicable deferred taxes, are included in other comprehensive income or loss as a component of stockholders' equity until realized from a sale or an expected credit loss is recognized. For the purpose of determining gross gains and losses for equity securities, changes in fair value at the reporting date are included as a component of investment income in the consolidated statements of income.

Under the current expected credit losses model, or CECL, credit losses on available for sale debt securities are recognized through an allowance for credit losses rather than as reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. For debt securities whose fair value is less than their amortized cost which we do not intend to sell or are not required to sell, we evaluate the expected cash flows to be received as compared to amortized cost and determine if an expected credit loss has occurred. In the event of an expected credit loss, only the amount of the impairment associated with the expected credit loss is recognized in income with the remainder, if any, of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income. To the extent we have the intent to sell the debt security or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of our amortized cost basis, we recognize an impairment loss in income in an amount equal to the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

Potential expected credit loss impairment is considered using a variety of factors, including the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost; adverse conditions specifically related to the industry, geographic area or financial condition of the issuer or underlying collateral of a debt security; changes in the quality of the debt security's credit enhancement; payment structure of the debt security; changes in credit rating of the debt security by the rating agencies; failure of the issuer to make scheduled principal or interest payments on the debt security and changes in prepayment speeds. For debt securities, we take into account expectations of relevant market and

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

economic data. For example, with respect to mortgage and asset-backed securities, such data includes underlying loan level data and structural features such as seniority and other forms of credit enhancements. We estimate the amount of the expected credit loss component of a debt security as the difference between the amortized cost and the present value of the expected cash flows of the security. The present value is determined using the best estimate of future cash flows discounted at the implicit interest rate at the date of purchase. The expected credit loss cannot exceed the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

We participate in a securities lending program to optimize investment income. We loan certain investment securities for short periods of time in exchange for collateral initially equal to at least 102% of the fair value of the investment securities on loan. The fair value of the loaned investment securities is monitored on a daily basis, with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the fair value of the loaned investment securities fluctuates. The collateral, which may be in the form of cash or U.S. Government securities, is deposited by the borrower with an independent lending agent. Any cash collateral, which is reinvested by the lending agent primarily in short-term, highly liquid investments, is recorded as a securities lending collateral asset within other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. We record a corresponding liability to reflect our obligation to return the collateral within trade accounts payable and accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. Collateral received in the form of securities is not recorded in our consolidated balance sheets because, absent default by the borrower, we do not have the right to sell, pledge or otherwise reinvest securities collateral. Loaned securities continue to be carried as investment securities on the consolidated balance sheet at the end of the reporting period. Earnings on the invested cash collateral, net of expense, associated with the securities lending payable are recorded as investment income.

***Receivables and Revenue Recognition***

Our Medicare contracts with CMS renew annually. We generally establish one-year specialty membership contracts, subject to cancellation on a 30-day written notice. Our military services contracts with the federal government and certain contracts with various state Medicaid programs generally are multi-year contracts subject to annual renewal provisions.

*Premiums Revenue*

We receive monthly premiums from the federal government and various states according to government specified payment rates and various contractual terms. We bill and collect member premiums on a monthly basis. Changes in Medicare premium revenues resulting from the periodic changes in risk-adjustment scores derived from medical diagnoses for our membership are estimated by projecting the ultimate annual premium and recognized ratably during the year with adjustments each period to reflect changes in the ultimate premium. Receivables or payables are classified as current or long-term in our consolidated balance sheet based on the timing of the expected settlement.

Premiums revenue is estimated by multiplying the membership covered under the various contracts by the contractual rates. Premiums revenue is recognized as income in the period members are entitled to receive services, and is net of estimated uncollectible amounts, retroactive membership adjustments, and adjustments to recognize rebates under the minimum benefit ratios required under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which we collectively refer to as the Health Care Reform Law. Medicare Advantage and Medicaid products are subject to minimum benefit ratio requirements. Estimated calendar year rebates recognized ratably during the year are revised each period to reflect current experience. Retroactive membership adjustments result from enrollment changes not yet processed, or not yet reported by the federal government and various states. We routinely monitor the collectability of specific accounts, the aging of receivables, historical retroactivity trends, estimated rebates, as well as prevailing and anticipated economic conditions, and reflect any required adjustments in current operations. Premiums received prior to the service period are recorded as unearned revenues.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

*Medicare Part D*

We cover prescription drug benefits in accordance with Medicare Part D under multiple contracts with CMS. The payments we receive monthly from CMS and members, which are determined from our annual bid, represent amounts for providing prescription drug insurance coverage. We recognize premiums revenue for providing this insurance coverage ratably over the term of our annual contract. Our CMS payment is subject to risk sharing through the Medicare Part D risk corridor provisions. Receipts for reinsurance, low-income cost subsidies, and manufacturer discounts on certain prescription drugs represent payments for prescription drug costs for which we are not at risk.

The risk corridor provisions compare costs targeted in our bids to actual prescription drug costs, limited to actual costs that would have been incurred under the standard coverage as defined by CMS. Variances exceeding certain thresholds may result in CMS making additional payments to us or require us to refund to CMS a portion of the premiums we received. As risk corridor provisions are considered in our overall annual bid process, we estimate and recognize an adjustment to premiums revenue related to these provisions based upon pharmacy claims experience. We record a receivable or payable at the contract level and classify the amount as current or long-term in our consolidated balance sheets based on the timing of expected settlement.

Reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies represent funding from CMS in connection with the Medicare Part D program for which we assume no risk. Reinsurance subsidies represent funding from CMS for its portion of prescription drug costs which exceed the member's out-of-pocket threshold, or the catastrophic coverage level. Low-income cost subsidies represent funding from CMS for all or a portion of the deductible, the coinsurance and co-payment amounts above the out-of-pocket threshold for low-income beneficiaries. Monthly prospective payments from CMS for reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies are based on assumptions submitted with our annual bid. A reconciliation and related settlement of CMS's prospective subsidies against actual prescription drug costs we paid is made after the end of the year. The Health Care Reform Law mandated consumer discounts of 75% on brand name and generic prescription drugs for Part D plan participants in the coverage gap prior to January 1, 2025. These discounts were funded by CMS and pharmaceutical manufacturers while we administered the application of these funds. Effective January 1, 2025, the Medicare Part D coverage gap was eliminated as mandated by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The standard Part D benefit now comprises three phases: the deductible phase, the initial coverage phase and the catastrophic coverage phase. Beneficiaries' out-of-pocket expenses for covered prescription drugs are capped at $2,000, after which they incur no additional cost sharing for the remainder of the year. In addition, the Coverage Gap Discount Program was replaced by the Manufacturer Discount Program, requiring pharmaceutical manufacturers to provide discounts on brand name drugs during both the initial coverage and catastrophic phases.

We account for the funding of subsidies and discounts for which we assume no risk as a deposit in our consolidated balance sheets and as a financing activity under receipts (payments) from contract deposits, net in our consolidated statements of cash flows.

We do not recognize premiums revenue or benefit expenses for these subsidies or discounts. Receipt and payment activity is accumulated at the contract level and recorded in our consolidated balance sheets in other current assets or trade accounts payable and accrued expenses depending on the contract balance at the end of the reporting period.

Settlement of the reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies as well as the risk corridor payment is based on a reconciliation made approximately 9 months after the close of each calendar year. Settlement with CMS for brand name prescription drug discounts is based on a reconciliation made approximately 14 to 18 months after the close of

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

each calendar year. We continue to revise our estimates with respect to the risk corridor provisions based on subsequent period pharmacy claims data. For additional information regarding amounts recorded to our consolidated balance sheets related to the risk corridor settlement and subsidies from CMS with respect to the Medicare Part D program, refer to Note 7.

*Patient services revenue* 

Patient services include services related to pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions and other services and capabilities to promote wellness and advance population health.

For our pharmacy solutions business, external pharmacy revenues include the cost of pharmaceuticals (net of rebates), a negotiated dispensing fee and customer co-payments for drugs dispensed through our CenterWell Pharmacy (our mail-order pharmacy business), CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy, and retail pharmacies jointly located within CenterWell Senior primary care clinics. Pharmacy products are billed to customers based on the number of transactions occurring during the billing period. Services revenues related to product revenues from dispensing prescriptions are recorded when the prescription or product is shipped.

Our primary care business recognizes revenues for certain value-based arrangements. Under these value-based arrangements, we enter into agreements with health plans to stand ready to deliver, integrate, direct and control the administration and management of certain health care services for our patients. In exchange, we receive a premium that is typically paid on a per member per month basis. These value-based arrangements represent a single performance obligation where revenues are recognized in the period in which we are obligated to provide integrated health care services to our patients. Fee-for-service revenue is recognized at agreed upon rates, net of contractual allowances, as the performance obligation is completed on the date of service.

For our home solutions business, revenues include net patient services revenue recorded based upon established billing rates, net of contractual allowances, discounts, or other implicit price concessions, and are recognized as performance obligations are satisfied, which is in the period services are rendered.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods (for example, due to changes in transaction price), was not material. Further, revenue expected to be recognized in any future year related to remaining performance obligations is not material.

*Other services revenue* 

Services revenue includes the processing of claims, offering access to our provider networks and clinical programs, and responding to customer service inquiries from members of self-funded groups. Services revenue is recognized in the period services are performed and are net of estimated uncollectible amounts. We routinely monitor the collectability of specific accounts, the aging of receivables, as well as prevailing and anticipated economic conditions, and reflect any required adjustments in current operations. Services revenue received prior to the service period is recorded as unearned revenue.

Under our TRICARE contracts with the Department of Defense (DoD) we provide administrative services, including offering access to our provider networks and clinical programs, claim processing, customer service, enrollment, and other services, while the federal government retains all of the risk of the cost of health benefits. We account for revenues under our contracts net of estimated health care costs similar to an administrative services fee only agreement. Our contracts include fixed administrative services fees and incentive fees and penalties. Administrative services fees are recognized as services are performed.

Our TRICARE members are served by both in-network and out-of-network providers in accordance with our contracts. We pay health care costs related to these services to the providers and are subsequently reimbursed by the DoD for such payments. We account for the payments of the federal government's claims and the related reimbursements under deposit accounting in our consolidated balance sheets and as a financing activity under receipts (payments) from contract deposits, net in our consolidated statements of cash flows.

***Receivables***

Receivables, including premium receivables, patient services revenue receivables, and other services revenue receivables, are shown net of allowances for estimated uncollectible accounts, retroactive membership adjustments, and contractual allowances.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, accounts receivable related to services were $367 million and $360 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we had no material bad-debt expense and there were no material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***Other Current Assets***

Other current assets include amounts associated with Medicare Part D, rebates due from pharmaceutical manufacturers and other amounts due within one year. We accrue pharmaceutical rebates as they are earned based on contractual terms and usage of the product. The balance of pharmaceutical rebates receivable was $1.9 billion and $1.7 billion at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In October 2024, we entered an uncommitted receivables purchase facility, or the Facility, under which certain pharmaceutical rebate receivables may be sold on a non-recourse basis to a financial institution. Although the sale is made without recourse, we provide collection services related to the transferred assets without compensation. The Facility's initial total capacity was $1.19 billion with a one year term, unless terminated early or extended. In October 2025, we extended the Facility for an additional one year term and updated its capacity to $1.09 billion. As control of, and risk related to, the receivables are transferred to the financial institution, the transactions under the Facility are accounted for as a true sale. The derecognition of our receivables transferred to a financial institution reduce our net pharmaceutical rebate receivable balance included in "Other current assets" on our accompanying consolidated balance sheets and generate a loss on discounted receivables included in "Operating costs" on our accompanying consolidated statements of income. As servicer of the purchased receivables, we establish a payable to the financial institution included in "Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses" on our accompanying consolidated balance sheets for rebates collected from manufacturers not yet remitted to the financial institution. Cash proceeds from the sale of receivables to the financial institution are classified as an operating activity included in "Changes in other assets" and rebates collected from manufacturers not yet remitted to the financial institution are classified as a financing activity included in "Changes in rebate factor payable" on our accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold $1.5 billion of pharmaceutical rebate receivables under the Facility and the loss on discounted receivables was not material. During 2025, we collected $1.0 billion, of the $1.5 billion sold, from manufacturers and remitted back to the financial institution. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we sold $639 million of pharmaceutical rebate receivables under the Facility and the loss on discounted receivables was not material. As of December 31, 2024, we collected $168 million from manufacturers, $123 million of which had not been remitted to the financial institution. During 2025, the $123 million was remitted back to the financial institution and the remaining $471 million receivables sold were collected from the manufacturers and remitted back to the financial institution.

***Policy Acquisition Costs***

Policy acquisition costs are those costs that relate directly to the successful acquisition of new and renewal insurance policies. Such costs include commissions, costs of policy issuance and underwriting, and other costs we incur to acquire new business or renew existing business. We expensed policy acquisition costs related to our

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

Medicare Advantage prepaid health services policies as incurred. These short-duration Medicare Advantage prepaid health services policies typically have a 1-year term and may be canceled upon 30 days notice.

***Long-Lived Assets***

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Gains and losses on sales or disposals of property and equipment are included in operating costs in our consolidated income statements. Certain costs related to the development or purchase of internal-use software are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years for equipment, 3 to 5 years for computer software, and 10 to 20 years for buildings. Improvements to leased facilities are depreciated over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the anticipated life of the improvement.

We periodically review long-lived assets, including property and equipment and other definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Losses are recognized for a long-lived asset to be held and used in our operations when the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying value. We recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset. A long-lived asset held for sale is reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation expense is not recognized on assets held for sale. Losses are recognized for a long-lived asset to be abandoned when the asset ceases to be used. In addition, we periodically review the estimated lives of all long-lived assets for reasonableness.

***Equity Method Investments***

We use the equity method of accounting for equity investments in companies where we are able to exercise significant influence, but not control, over operating and financial policies of the investee. Judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investment includes considering key factors such as our ownership interest, representation on the board of directors, organizational structure, participation in policy-making decisions and material intra-entity transactions.

Generally, under the equity method, original investments in these entities are recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted by our share of equity in income or losses after the date of acquisition as well as capital contributions to and distributions from these companies. Our proportionate share of the net income or loss of these companies is included in consolidated net income. Investment amounts in excess of our share of an investee's net assets are amortized over the life of the related asset creating the excess. Excess goodwill is not amortized.

We evaluate equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable. Factors considered by us when reviewing an equity method investment for impairment include the length of time (duration) and the extent (severity) to which the fair value of the equity method investment has been less than carrying value, the investee's financial condition and near-term prospects and the intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery. An impairment that is other-than-temporary is recognized in the period identified.

For additional information regarding our equity method investments, refer to Note 4.

***Goodwill and Intangible Assets***

Goodwill represents the unamortized excess of cost over the fair value of the net tangible and other intangible assets acquired. We are required to test at least annually for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as the reporting unit, and more frequently if adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. A reporting unit either is our operating segments or one level below the operating segments, referred to as a component, which comprise our reportable segments. A component is considered a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by management. We aggregate the components of an operating segment into one reporting unit if they have similar

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

economic characteristics. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting units that are expected to benefit from the specific synergies of the business combination.

We perform a quantitative assessment to review goodwill for impairment to determine both the existence and amount of goodwill impairment, if any. Impairment tests are performed, at a minimum, in the fourth quarter of each year supported by our long-range business plan and annual planning process. We rely on an evaluation of future discounted cash flows to determine fair value of our reporting units. The fair value of our reporting units with significant goodwill exceeded carrying amounts. However, unfavorable changes in key assumptions or combinations of assumptions including a significant increase in the discount rate, decrease in the long-term growth rate or substantial reduction in our underlying cash flow assumptions, including revenue expectations and growth rates, operating cost trends, and projected operating income could have a significant negative impact on the estimated fair value of our home solutions reporting unit, which accounted for $4.4 billion of goodwill. Impairment tests completed for 2025, 2024, and 2023 did not result in an impairment loss.

Intangible assets with indefinite lives relate to Certificate of Needs (CON) and Medicare licenses acquired as part of our acquisition of CenterWell Home Health (formerly Kindred at Home) are included within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We are required to annually compare the fair values of other indefinite-lived intangible assets to their carrying amounts. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are determined based on the income approach. For our CON intangible assets, unfavorable changes in key assumptions or combinations of assumptions, including a significant increase in the discount rate, decrease in the long-term growth rate or substantial reduction in the underlying cash flow assumptions, including revenue growth rates, operating cost trends, and projected operating income could have a significant negative impact on the estimated fair value of our CON intangible assets, which account for $790 million of our intangible assets. Impairment tests completed on our indefinite-lived intangible assets for 2025, 2024 and 2023 resulted in impairment charges of $128 million, $200 million and $55 million, respectively. These charges reflect the amount by which the carrying value exceeded its estimated fair value. The fair values of the assets were measured using Level 3 inputs, such as projected revenues and operating cash flows.

Definite-lived intangible assets primarily relate to acquired customer contracts/relationships and are included with other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the useful life generally using the straight-line method. We review definite-lived intangible assets for impairment under our long-lived asset policy.

***Benefits Payable and Benefits Expense Recognition***

Benefits expense includes claim payments, capitation payments, pharmacy costs net of rebates, allocations of certain centralized expenses and various other costs incurred to provide health insurance coverage to members, as well as estimates of future payments to hospitals and others for medical care and other supplemental benefits provided on or prior to the balance sheet date. Capitation payments represent monthly contractual fees disbursed to primary care and other providers who are responsible for providing medical care to members. Pharmacy costs represent payments for members' prescription drug benefits, net of rebates from drug manufacturers. Receivables for such pharmacy rebates are included in other current assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Other supplemental benefits include dental, vision, and other supplemental health products.

We estimate the costs of our benefits expense payments using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns, and other relevant factors, and record benefit reserves for future payments. We continually review estimates of future payments relating to claims costs for services incurred in the current and prior periods and make necessary adjustments to our reserves.

Benefits expense is recognized in the period in which services are provided and includes an estimate of the cost of services which have been incurred but not yet reported, or IBNR. Our reserving practice is to consistently recognize the actuarial best point estimate within a level of confidence required by actuarial standards. Actuarial standards of practice generally require a level of confidence such that the liabilities established for IBNR have a

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

greater probability of being adequate versus being insufficient. Therefore, in many situations, the claim amounts ultimately settled will be less than the estimate that satisfies the actuarial standards of practice.

We develop our estimate for IBNR using actuarial methodologies and assumptions, primarily based upon historical claim experience. Depending on the period for which incurred claims are estimated, we apply a different method in determining our estimate. For periods prior to the most recent two months, a completion factor method uses historical paid claims patterns to estimate the percentage of claims incurred during a given period that have historically been adjudicated as of the reporting period. Changes in claim inventory levels and known changes in claim payment processes are taken into account in these estimates. For the most recent two months, the incurred claims are estimated primarily from a trend analysis based upon per member per month claims trends developed from our historical experience in the preceding months, adjusted for known changes in estimates of hospital admissions, recent hospital and drug utilization data, provider contracting changes, changes in benefit levels, changes in member cost sharing, changes in medical management processes, product mix, and workday seasonality.

The completion factor method is used for the months of incurred claims prior to the most recent two months because the historical percentage of claims processed for those months is at a level sufficient to produce a consistently reliable result. Conversely, for the most recent two months of incurred claims, the volume of claims processed historically is not at a level sufficient to produce a reliable result, which therefore requires us to examine historical trend patterns as the primary method of evaluation. Changes in claim processes, including recoveries of overpayments, receipt cycle times, claim inventory levels, outsourcing, system conversions, and processing disruptions due to weather or other events affect views regarding the reasonable choice of completion factors. Claim payments to providers for services rendered are often net of overpayment recoveries for claims paid previously, as contractually allowed. Claim overpayment recoveries can result from many different factors, including retroactive enrollment activity, audits of provider billings, and/or payment errors. Changes in patterns of claim overpayment recoveries can be unpredictable and result in completion factor volatility, as they often impact older dates of service. The receipt cycle time measures the average length of time between when a medical claim was initially incurred and when the claim form was received. Increases in electronic claim submissions from providers decrease the receipt cycle time. If claims are submitted or processed on a faster (slower) pace than prior periods, the actual claim may be more (less) complete than originally estimated using our completion factors, which may result in reserves that are higher (lower) than required.

Medical cost trends potentially are more volatile than other segments of the economy. The drivers of medical cost trends include increases in the utilization of hospital facilities, physician services, new higher priced technologies and medical procedures, and new prescription drugs and therapies, as well as the inflationary effect on the cost per unit of each of these expense components. Other external factors such as government-mandated benefits or other regulatory changes, the tort liability system, increases in medical services capacity, direct to consumer advertising for prescription drugs and medical services, an aging population, lifestyle changes including diet and smoking, catastrophes, public health emergencies, epidemics and pandemics (such as COVID-19) also may impact medical cost trends. Internal factors such as system conversions, claims processing cycle times, changes in medical management practices and changes in provider contracts also may impact our ability to accurately predict estimates of historical completion factors or medical cost trends. All of these factors are considered in estimating IBNR and in estimating the per member per month claims trend for purposes of determining the reserve for the most recent two months. Additionally, we continually prepare and review follow-up studies to assess the reasonableness of the estimates generated by our process and methods over time. The results of these studies are also considered in determining the reserve for the most recent two months. Each of these factors requires significant judgment by management.

We reassess the profitability of our contracts for providing insurance coverage to our members when current operating results or forecasts indicate probable future losses. We establish a premium deficiency reserve in current operations to the extent that the sum of expected future costs, claim adjustment expenses, and maintenance costs exceeds related future premiums under contracts. For purposes of determining premium deficiencies, contracts are grouped in a manner consistent with our method of acquiring, servicing, and measuring the profitability of such contracts. Losses recognized as a premium deficiency result in a beneficial effect in subsequent periods as operating losses under these contracts are charged to the liability previously established. Because the majority of our member

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

contracts renew annually, we would not record a material premium deficiency reserve, except when unanticipated adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate otherwise.

We believe our benefits payable are adequate to cover future claims payments required. However, such estimates are based on knowledge of current events and anticipated future events. Therefore, the actual liability could differ materially from the amounts provided.

***Future policy benefits payable***

Future policy benefits payable includes liabilities for long-duration insurance policies primarily related to certain blocks of insurance assumed in acquisitions, primarily life and annuities in run-off status, and are included in our consolidated balance sheet within other long-term liabilities. Most of these policies are subject to reinsurance. For additional information regarding reinsurance, refer to Note 19.

***Book Overdraft***

Under our cash management system, checks issued but not yet presented to banks that would result in negative bank balances when presented are classified as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in book overdrafts from period to period are reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows as a financing activity.

***Income Taxes***

We recognize an asset or liability for the deferred tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. These temporary differences will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amounts of the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. We also recognize the future tax benefits such as net operating and capital loss carryforwards as deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is provided against these deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Future years' tax expense may be increased or decreased by adjustments to the valuation allowance or to the estimated accrual for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are further adjusted for changes in the enacted tax rates.

We record tax benefits when it is more likely than not that the tax return position taken with respect to a particular transaction will be sustained. A liability, if recorded, is not considered resolved until the statute of limitations for the relevant taxing authority to examine and challenge the tax position has expired, or the tax position is ultimately settled through examination, negotiation, or litigation. We classify interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions in our provision for income taxes.

***Noncontrolling Interests***

The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of less than 100% owned affiliates that we control. Accordingly, we record noncontrolling interests in the earnings and equity of such entities. We record adjustments to noncontrolling interests for the allocable portion of income or loss to which the noncontrolling interest holders are entitled based upon their portion of the subsidiaries they own. Distributions to holders of noncontrolling interests are adjusted to the respective noncontrolling interest holders' balances. Noncontrolling interests, which relate to the minority ownership held by third-party investors in certain of our businesses within our Insurance and CenterWell segments, are reported below net income under the heading "Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests" in the consolidated statements of income and presented as a component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets.

***Stock-Based Compensation***

We generally recognize stock-based compensation expense, as determined on the date of grant at fair value, on a straight-line basis over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). In addition, for awards with both time and performance-based conditions, we generally recognize compensation expense on a straight line basis over the vesting period when it is probable that the

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

performance condition will be achieved. We estimate expected forfeitures and recognize compensation expense only for those awards which are expected to vest. We estimate the grant-date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

For additional information regarding our stock-based compensation plans, refer to Note 14.

***Earnings Per Common Share***

We compute basic earnings per common share on the basis of the weighted-average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding employee stock options and restricted shares, or units, using the treasury stock method.

For additional information regarding our earnings per share, refer to Note 15.

***Fair Value***

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized into a fair value hierarchy based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use. The fair value hierarchy includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as described below.

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include securities that are traded in an active exchange market.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments as well as debt securities whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 includes assets and liabilities whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques reflecting our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use as well as those requiring significant management judgment.

Fair value of actively traded debt and equity securities are based on quoted market prices. Fair value of other debt securities are based on quoted market prices of identical or similar securities or based on observable inputs like interest rates generally using a market valuation approach, or, less frequently, an income valuation approach and are generally classified as Level 2. Fair value of privately held investment grade debt securities are estimated using a variety of valuation methodologies, including both market and income approaches, where an observable quoted market does not exist and are generally classified as Level 3. For privately-held investment grade debt securities, such methodologies include reviewing the value ascribed to the most recent financing, comparing the security with securities of publicly-traded companies in similar lines of business with similar credit characteristics, and reviewing the underlying financial performance including estimating discounted cash flows.

We obtain at least one price for each security from a third-party pricing service. These prices are generally derived from recently reported trades for identical or similar securities, including adjustments through the reporting date based upon observable market information. When quoted prices are not available, the third-party pricing service may use quoted market prices of comparable securities or discounted cash flow analysis, incorporating inputs that are currently observable in the markets for similar securities. Inputs that are often used in the valuation methodologies include benchmark yields, reported trades, credit spreads, broker quotes, default rates, and

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

prepayment speeds. We are responsible for the determination of fair value and as such we perform analysis on the prices received from the third-party pricing service to determine whether the prices are reasonable estimates of fair value. Our analysis includes a review of monthly price fluctuations as well as a quarterly comparison of the prices received from the pricing service to prices reported by our third-party investment adviser. In addition, on a quarterly basis we examine the underlying inputs and assumptions for a sample of individual securities across asset classes, credit rating levels, and various durations.

***Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements***

*Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements*

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09 — Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, effective for annual 2025 year-end financial statements. The updated guidance requires additional disclosure and disaggregated information in the income tax rate reconciliation along with qualitative explanation of individually significant reconciling items. The updated guidance also requires disclosure of the income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by jurisdiction. Our income tax footnote was updated to reflect the adoption of the standard, which did not have a material impact on our disclosures.

*Accounting Pronouncements Effective in Future Periods*

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03 — Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new guidance requires significant additional disclosures disaggregating certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The new guidance requires prospective application (with retrospective application permitted). The new guidance will be effective for us beginning with our annual 2027 year-end financial statements, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact on our disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-06 — Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The new guidance modernizes consideration of different methods of software development, updating the requirements for capitalization of software costs. The new guidance requires prospective application (with retrospective application permitted). The new guidance will be effective for us beginning with our interim 2028 financial statements, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

There are no other recently issued accounting standards that apply to us or that are expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

**3. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***

During 2025, 2024, and 2023, we acquired various health and wellness related businesses, and divested of a business during 2025, that individually or in the aggregate, have not had a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. The results of operations and financial condition of these businesses acquired have been included in our consolidated statements of income and consolidated balance sheets from the respective acquisition dates. Acquisition and divestiture related costs recognized in 2025, 2024 and 2023 were not material to our results of operations. For asset acquisitions, the goodwill acquired is partially amortizable as deductible expenses for tax purposes. The pro forma financial information assuming the acquisitions had occurred as of the beginning of the calendar year prior to the year of acquisition, as well as the revenues and earnings generated during the year of acquisition, was not material for disclosure purposes.

On February 13, 2026, we completed the acquisition of a primary care business for consideration of approximately $941 million.

**4. EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS**

We completed the sale of a 60% interest in Gentiva Hospice on August 11, 2022 and we account for our remaining minority ownership in Gentiva Hospice using the equity method of accounting. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, we owned approximately 35%. This investment was reflected in equity method investments in our December 31, 2025 and 2024 consolidated balance sheets, with our share of loss reported as equity in net losses in our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

The summarized balance sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024 and statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 of Gentiva Hospice were as follows:

Our primary care business previously entered into a strategic partnership with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, or WCAS, to accelerate the expansion of our primary care model through the development of clinics. As of December 31, 2025, there were 146 primary care clinics operating under the partnership. In addition, the agreements include a series of put and call options through which WCAS may require us to purchase their interest in the entity, and through which we may acquire WCAS's interest, over the next 1 to 9 years. We have the option to purchase the first two cohorts of clinics in 2026 for approximately $1.0 billion to $1.5 billion based on current projections. All existing cohorts can be called by us from 2026 to 2033 or put to us by WCAS from 2027 to 2034 and could require $3.0 billion to $5.0 billion to purchase based on current projections. These estimates are dependent on multiple factors including the actual timing of when the put or call options are exercised, expected revenue growth at each center within the respective cohort and future capital contributions, among other factors. For additional information on inputs relevant to these put and call options, refer to Note 6.

*Other equity method investments*

We have several other individually immaterial equity method investments included within equity method investments in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 with our share of income or loss reported as equity in net losses in our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

We own certain corporate debt securities of Gentiva Hospice. The book value and fair value are $381 million and $383 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The book value and fair value were $381 million and $396 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024.

We participate in a securities lending program where we loan certain investment securities for short periods of time in exchange for collateral, consisting of cash or U.S. Government securities, initially equal to at least 102% of the fair value of the investment securities on loan. Collateral with a fair value of $638 million was held at December 31, 2025. At December 31, 2025, collateral from lending our investment securities was reinvested in short-term, highly liquid assets. In addition, we participated in non-cash securities lending with a fair value of $193 million at December 31, 2025.

Gross unrealized losses and fair values aggregated by investment category and length of time of individual debt securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for which no allowances for credit loss has been recorded were as follows at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively:

Approximately 97% of our debt securities were investment-grade quality, with a weighted average credit rating of AA- by Standard & Poor's Rating Service, or S&P at December 31, 2025. Our remaining debt securities below investment grade were primarily rated B. Tax-exempt municipal securities were diversified among general

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

obligation bonds of states and local municipalities in the United States as well as special revenue bonds issued by municipalities to finance specific public works projects such as utilities, water and sewer, transportation, or education. Our general obligation bonds are diversified across the United States with no individual state exceeding approximately 1% of our total debt securities. Our investment policy limits investments in a single issuer and requires diversification among various asset types. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Our unrealized losses from all debt securities were generated from approximately 1,150 positions out of a total of approximately 2,110 positions at December 31, 2025. All issuers of debt securities we own that were trading at an unrealized loss at December 31, 2025 remain current on all contractual payments. After taking into account these and other factors previously described, we believe these unrealized losses primarily were caused by an increase in market interest rates in the current markets since the time these debt securities were purchased. At December 31, 2025, we did not intend to sell any debt securities with an unrealized loss position in accumulated other comprehensive income, and it is not likely that we will be required to sell these debt securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. Additionally, we did not record any material credit allowances for debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2025, 2024 or 2023.

The detail of (losses) gains related to investment securities and included within investment income was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023:

***Interest Rate Swaps***

We have entered into interest-rate swap agreements with major financial institutions to convert our interest-rate exposure on some of our senior notes payable from fixed rates to variable rates, based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), to align interest costs more closely with floating interest rates received on our cash equivalents and investment securities. These swap agreements were qualified and designated as a fair value hedge. Our interest rate swaps are recognized in other assets or other liabilities, as appropriate, in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value as of the reporting date. Our interest rate swaps are highly effective at reflecting the fair value of our hedged fixed rate senior notes payable. We utilize market-based financing rates, forward yield curves and discount rates in determining fair value of these swaps at each reporting date, a Level 2 measure within the fair value hierarchy. The cumulative, aggregate increase to the carrying value of the senior notes was approximately $6 million at December 31, 2025. Our swap positions at December 31, 2025 included swap assets of $57 million included within other long-term assets on our consolidated balance sheet, and swap liabilities of $51 million included within other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. The cumulative, aggregate adjustment to the carrying value of the senior notes was a decrease of approximately $129 million at December 31, 2024. Our swap positions at December 31, 2024 included swap liabilities of $129 million, included within other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. We include the gain or loss on the swap agreements in interest expense on our consolidated income statement, the same line item as the offsetting loss or gain on the related senior notes. The gain or loss due to hedge ineffectiveness was not material for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

***Financial Liabilities***

Our debt is recorded at carrying value in our consolidated balance sheets. The carrying value of our senior notes debt outstanding, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $12.4 billion at December 31, 2025 and $11.7 billion at December 31, 2024. The fair value of our senior note debt was $12.2 billion at December 31, 2025 and $11.2 billion at December 31, 2024. The fair value of our senior note debt is determined based on Level 2 inputs, including quoted market prices for the same or similar debt, or if no quoted market prices are available, on the current prices estimated to be available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Carrying value approximates fair value for our term loans and commercial paper borrowings. We had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

***Put and Call Options Measured at Fair Value***

The put and call options fair values associated with our primary care strategic partnership with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, or WCAS, which are exercisable at a fixed revenue exit multiple and provide a minimum return on WCAS' investment if exercised, are measured at fair value each reporting period using a Monte Carlo simulation. The put and call options fair values, derived from the Monte Carlo simulation, were $1,400 million and $13 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The put and call options fair values, derived from the Monte Carlo simulation, were $883 million and $10 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024. The put liability and call asset are included within other long-term liabilities and other long-term assets, respectively, within our consolidated balance sheets. Fair value changes to the put and call options are included within Other expense, net within our consolidated income statement.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

The significant unobservable inputs utilized in these Level 3 fair value measurements (and selected values) include the enterprise value, annualized volatility and credit spread. Enterprise value was derived from a discounted cash flow model, which utilized significant unobservable inputs for long-term revenue, to measure underlying cash flows, weighted average cost of capital and long term growth rate. The table below presents the assumptions used for December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **December 31, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Annualized volatility | 18.8% - 19.9% | 17.5% to 18.9% |
| Credit spread | 1.1% - 1.6% | 0.9% to 1.5% |
| Revenue exit multiple | 1.5x - 2.5x  | 1.5x - 2.5x |
| Weighted average cost of capital | 10.5% - 14.5% | 11.0% to 14.5% |
| Long term growth rate | 3.0% | 3.0% |

---

The assumptions used for annualized volatility, credit spread and weighted average cost of capital reflect the lowest and highest values where they differ significantly across the series of put and call options due to their expected exercise dates.

***Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis***

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis subject to fair value adjustment only in certain circumstances.

As disclosed in Note 3, we acquired various health and wellness related businesses during 2025, 2024, and 2023. The values of net tangible assets acquired and the resulting goodwill and other intangible assets were recorded at fair value primarily using Level 3 inputs. The majority of the related tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their carrying value as of the respective dates of acquisition, as their carrying values approximated their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair values of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in these acquisitions were internally estimated primarily based on the income approach. The income approach estimates fair value based on the present value of the cash flows that the assets are expected to generate in the future. We developed internal estimates for expected cash flows and discount rates in the present value calculations. There were no material asset or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during 2025, 2024, or 2023 other than the assets and liabilities assumed in these acquisitions and any subsequent impairments. We recorded impairment charges of $128 million and $200 million relating to indefinite-lived intangible assets in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**7. MEDICARE PART D**

We cover prescription drug benefits in accordance with Medicare Part D under multiple contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets include the following amounts associated with Medicare Part D as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. CMS subsidies/discounts include the reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies funded by CMS for which we assume no risk as well as brand name prescription drug discounts for Part D plan participants funded by CMS and pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Effective January 1, 2025, the Medicare Part D coverage gap was eliminated as mandated by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The standard Part D benefit now comprises three phases: the deductible phase, the initial coverage phase and the catastrophic coverage phase. Beneficiaries' out-of-pocket expenses for covered prescription drugs are capped at $2,000, after which they incur no additional cost sharing for the remainder of the year. In addition, the Coverage Gap Discount Program was replaced by the Manufacturer Discount Program, requiring pharmaceutical manufacturers to provide discounts on brand name drugs during both the initial coverage and catastrophic phases. These changes are anticipated to reduce out-of-pocket costs for beneficiaries and impact plan liabilities accordingly.

The accompanying consolidated balance sheets include $1.5 billion of net assets and $530 million of net assets associated with subsidy programs at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

**10. LEASES**

We determine if a contract contains a lease by evaluating the nature and substance of the agreement. We lease facilities, computer hardware, and other furniture and equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For new lease agreements, we combine lease and nonlease components for all of our asset classes.

When portions of the lease payments are not fixed or depend on an index or rate, we consider those payments to be variable in nature. Our variable lease payments include, but are not limited to, common area maintenance, taxes and insurance which are not dependent upon an index or rate. Variable lease payments are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. Most leases include options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Right-of-use assets included within other long-term assets in our consolidated balance sheets were $485 million and $445 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Operating lease liabilities included

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

within trade accounts payable and accrued expenses in our consolidated balance sheets were $126 million and $130 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Additionally, operating lease liabilities included within other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets were $418 million and $392 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The classification of our operating lease liabilities is based on the remaining lease term.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, total fixed operating lease costs, excluding short-term lease costs, were $128 million, $121 million and $145 million, respectively, and are included within operating costs in our consolidated statements of income. Short-term lease costs were not material for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, total variable operating lease costs were $114 million, $127 million and $120 million, respectively, and are included within operating costs in our consolidated statements of income.

We sublease facilities or partial facilities to third-party tenants for space not used in our operations. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, sublease rental income was $47 million, $50 million and $66 million, respectively, and is included within operating costs in our consolidated statements of income.

The weighted average remaining lease term is 6.2 years and 5.1 years at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The weighted average discount rate is 5.1% and 4.6% at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities included within our operating cash flows was $140 million, $143 million and $166 million, respectively.

| Balances at December 31 | $9967 | $10440 | $10241 |

---

The total estimate of benefits payable for claims incurred but not reported, or IBNR, is included within the net

incurred claims amounts. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, benefits payable included IBNR of approximately $6.6 billion and $7.3 billion, primarily associated with claims incurred in each respective year. The cumulative number of reported claims as of December 31, 2025 was approximately 229.1 million for claims incurred in 2025, 223.7 million for claims incurred in 2024, and 218.8 million for claims incurred in 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amounts incurred related to prior periods vary from previously estimated liabilities as the claims ultimately are settled. Negative amounts reported for incurred related to prior years result from claims being ultimately settled for amounts less than originally estimated (favorable development).

Our reserving practice is to consistently recognize the actuarial best estimate of our ultimate liability for claims, which generally results in favorable reserve development, or reserves that are considered redundant. We experienced favorable medical claims reserve development related to prior fiscal years of $1.0 billion in 2025, $701 million in 2024, and $872 million in 2023.

The medical claims reserve development for 2025, 2024, and 2023 primarily reflects the consistent application of trend and completion factors. The favorable development recognized in 2025 resulted primarily from trend factors and completion factors developing more favorably than originally expected. The favorable development recognized in 2024 and 2023 primarily resulted from trend factors developing more favorably than originally expected.

***Incurred and Paid Claims Development***

The following discussion provides information about incurred and paid claims development as of December 31, 2025, net of reinsurance, as well as cumulative claim frequency and the total of IBNR included within the net incurred claims amounts. The information about incurred and paid claims development for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 is presented as supplementary information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Claims frequency is measured as medical fee-for-service claims for each service encounter with a unique provider identification number. Our claims frequency measure includes claims covered by deductibles as well as claims under capitated arrangements. Claim counts may vary based on product mix and the percentage of delegated capitation arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following tables provide information about incurred and paid claims development as of December 31, 2025, net of reinsurance.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

Deferred income tax balances reflect the impact of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements, and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the reported amounts are actually recovered or settled.

Principal components of our net deferred tax balances at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Assets (Liabilities)** | **Assets (Liabilities)** |
| | **2025** | **2024** |
| | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** |

| Compensation and other accrued expense | 172 | 171 |
| Net operating loss carryforward | 148 | 93 |
| Deferred acquisition costs | 35 | 39 |
| Other | 26 | 6 |
| Unearned revenues | 35 | 6 |
| Investment securities | 544 | 510 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total deferred income tax assets | 1134 | 1042 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Valuation allowance | (139) | (85) |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total net deferred income tax assets (liabilities) | $84 | $260 |
| Amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other long-term assets | $84 | $260 |

---

All deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent in our consolidated balance sheets as other long-term assets and liabilities at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Valuation allowances are provided when it is considered more likely than not deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowances primarily relate to future tax benefits on certain federal, state and non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards. At December 31, 2025, we had approximately $0.5 million of federal net operating losses, $2.0 billion of pre-tax state net operating losses, and approximately $141 million of Puerto Rico net operating losses to carry forward. A portion of these loss carryforwards, if not used to offset future taxable income, will expire from 2026 through 2042. The remaining balance of the net operating loss carryforwards has no expiration date. Due to limitations and uncertainty regarding our ability to use some of the loss carryforwards and certain other deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance of $139 million was established. For the remainder of the net operating loss carryforwards and other cumulative temporary differences, based on our historical record of producing taxable income and profitability, we have concluded that future operating income will be sufficient to recover these deferred tax assets.

We file income tax returns in the United States and Puerto Rico. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, has completed its examinations of our consolidated income tax returns for 2022 and prior years. Our 2023 tax return is in the post-filing review period under the Compliance Assurance Process, or CAP, as we received a "no-change" letter in April of 2025. For our 2024 tax return, we received a full acceptance letter under the CAP, indicating that we have completed the advance (pre-filing) review stage. With a few exceptions, which are immaterial in the aggregate, we are no longer subject to state, local and foreign tax examinations for years before 2021. We are not aware of any material adjustments that may be proposed as a result of any ongoing or future examinations.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

***Senior Notes***

Our senior notes, which are unsecured, may be redeemed at our option at any time at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest and a specified make-whole amount. The 8.150% senior notes are subject to an interest rate adjustment if the debt ratings assigned to the notes are downgraded (or subsequently upgraded). In addition, our senior notes contain a change of control provision that may require us to purchase the notes under certain circumstances.

In March 2025, we issued $750 million of 5.550% unsecured senior notes due May 1, 2035, $500 million of 6.000% unsecured senior notes due May 1, 2055, and an additional $250 million of our existing 5.375% unsecured senior notes due April 15, 2031. Our net proceeds, reduced for the underwriters' discounts and commissions paid, were $1.481 billion. We used the net proceeds of these offerings to repay the remaining $577 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.500% unsecured senior notes on their maturity date of April 1, 2025. The remaining net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of our existing indebtedness, including borrowings under our commercial paper program.

In May 2025, we entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Repurchase Plan to repurchase a portion of our $750 million aggregate principal amount of 1.350% senior notes maturing in February 2027 and a portion of our $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.950% senior notes maturing in March 2027 during the period beginning on May 1, 2025 and ending on August 29, 2025. For the period ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased $200 million principal amount of these senior notes for approximately $194 million cash.

In October 2025, we entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Repurchase Plan to repurchase a portion of our $750 million aggregate principal amount of 2.150% senior notes maturing in February 2032, a portion of our $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes maturing in August 2029 and a portion of our $750 million aggregate principal amount of 3.700% senior notes maturing in March 2029 during the period beginning on October 3, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2025. For the period ended December 31, 2025, we repurchased $200 million principal amount of these senior notes for approximately $177 million cash.

We have entered into interest-rate swap agreements with major financial institutions to convert our interest-rate exposure on some of our senior notes payable from fixed rates to variable rates, based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), to align interest costs more closely with floating interest rates received on our cash equivalents and investment securities, as further described in Note 6. As a result, the carrying value of these senior notes has been adjusted to reflect changes in value caused by an increase or decrease in interest rates. The cumulative, aggregate increase to the carrying value of the senior notes was approximately $6 million at December 31, 2025.

***Revolving Credit Agreements***

In May 2025, we entered into an amended and restated 5-year, $5.0 billion unsecured revolving credit agreement. The May 2025 revolving credit agreement (i) increases the amount of the commitments under our June 2023 revolving credit agreement from $2.642 billion to $5.0 billion and (ii) replaces our existing May 2024 364-day $2.1 billion unsecured revolving credit agreement, which expired in accordance with its terms.

Under the revolving credit agreement, at our option, we can borrow on either a competitive advance basis or a revolving credit basis. The revolving credit portion bears interest at Term SOFR or the base rate plus a spread. The competitive advance portion of any borrowings will bear interest at market rates prevailing at the time of borrowing on either a fixed rate or a floating rate based Term SOFR, at our option.

The SOFR spread varies depending on our credit ratings ranging from 79.5 to 130.0 basis points. As of December 31, 2025, our SOFR spread was 101.5 basis points. We also pay an annual facility fee regardless of utilization. This facility fee varies depending on our credit ratings ranging from 8.0 to 20.0 basis points. As of December 31, 2025, our facility fee was 11.0 basis points.

The terms of our revolving credit agreements include standard provisions related to conditions of borrowing which could limit our ability to borrow additional funds. In addition, our credit agreements contain customary restrictive covenants and a financial covenant regarding maximum debt to capitalization of 60%, as well as

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

customary events of default. We are in compliance with this financial covenant, with actual debt to capitalization of 41.1% as measured in accordance with the revolving credit agreements as of December 31, 2025. Upon our agreement with one or more financial institutions, we may expand the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit agreement by up to $1.0 billion, to a maximum of $6.0 billion.

At December 31, 2025, we had no borrowings and approximately $10 million of letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit agreement. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, we had $4.990 billion of remaining borrowing capacity under the credit agreement (which excludes the uncommitted $1.0 billion of incremental loan facilities), none of which would be restricted by our financial covenant compliance requirement.

We have other customary relationships, including financial advisory and banking, with some parties to the revolving credit agreements.

***Commercial Paper***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under our commercial paper program we may issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes privately placed on a discount basis through certain broker dealers at any time. Amounts available under the program may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time to time. The net proceeds of issuances have been and are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. The maximum principal amount outstanding at any one time during the year ended December 31, 2025 was $1.2 billion, with no outstanding amount at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

***Other Short-Term Borrowings***

We are a member, through one subsidiary, of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, or FHLB. As a member we have the ability to obtain short-term cash advances, subject to certain minimum collateral requirements. At December 31, 2025 we had no outstanding short-term FHLB borrowings.

**14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS**

***Employee Savings Plan***

We have defined contribution retirement savings plans covering eligible associates which include matching contributions based on the amount of our associates' contributions to the plans. The cost of these plans amounted to approximately $304 million in 2025, $293 million in 2024, and $278 million in 2023. The Company's cash match is invested pursuant to the participant's contribution direction. Based on the closing price of our common stock of $256.13 on December 31, 2025, approximately 3% of the retirement and savings plan's assets were invested in our common stock, or approximately 1.0 million shares, representing approximately 0.9% of the shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025. At December 31, 2025, approximately 5.1 million shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance under our defined contribution retirement savings plans.

***Stock-Based Compensation***

We have plans under which options to purchase our common stock and restricted stock units have been granted to executive officers, directors and key associates. Awards generally require both a change in control and termination of employment within 2 years of the date of the change in control to accelerate the vesting, including those granted to retirement-eligible participants.

The terms and vesting schedules for stock-based awards vary by type of grant. Generally, the awards vest upon time-based conditions. We have also granted awards to certain associates that vest upon a combination of time and performance-based conditions. The stock awards of retirement-eligible participants are generally earned ratably over the service period for each tranche. Accordingly, upon retirement the earned portion of the current tranche will continue to vest on the originally scheduled vest date and any remaining unearned portion of the award will be forfeited. Our equity award program includes a retirement provision that generally treats associates with a combination of age and years of services with the Company totaling 65 or greater, with a minimum required age of

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

55 and a minimum requirement of 5 years of service, as retirement-eligible. Upon exercise, stock-based compensation awards are settled with authorized but unissued company stock or treasury stock.

The compensation expense that has been charged against income for these plans was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **2025** | **2024** | **2023** |
| | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** |
| Stock-based compensation expense by type: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restricted stock | $233 | $198 | $168 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock options | 8 | 9 | 7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total stock-based compensation expense | 241 | 207 | 175 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax benefit recognized | (44) | (29) | (28) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax | $197 | $178 | $147 |

---

The tax benefit recognized in our consolidated financial statements is based on the amount of compensation expense recorded for book purposes, subject to limitations on the deductibility of annual employee compensation as mandated by regulation. The actual tax benefit realized in our tax return is based on the intrinsic value, or the excess of the market value over the exercise or purchase price, of stock options exercised and restricted stock vested during the period, subject to limitations on the deductibility of annual employee compensation as mandated by regulation. The actual tax benefit realized for the deductions taken on our tax returns from option exercises and restricted stock vesting totaled $27 million in 2025, $21 million in 2024, and $30 million in 2023. There was no capitalized stock-based compensation expense during these years.

At December 31, 2025, there were approximately 13.7 million shares reserved for stock award plans under the Humana Inc. Amended & Restated Plan, or 2019 Plan. These reserved shares included giving effect to, under the Amended & Restated Plan, 4.4 million shares of common stock available for future grants assuming all stock options were granted or 1.3 million shares available for future grants assuming all restricted stock were granted. Shares may only be issued from the Amended & Restated Plan, as any shares remaining in all other historical equity plans are not available for issuance.

*Restricted Stock*

Restricted stock is granted with a fair value equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and generally vests in equal annual tranches over a three year period from the date of grant. Certain of our restricted stock grants also include performance-based conditions generally associated with strategic measures aligned with our growth objectives. Restricted stock units have forfeitable dividend equivalent rights equal to the dividend paid on common stock. The weighted-average grant date fair value of our restricted stock was $257.55 in 2025, $364.59 in 2024, and $508.23 in 2023. Activity for our restricted stock was as follows for the year ended December 31, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Shares** | **Weighted-<br>Average<br>Grant-Date<br>Fair Value** |
| | **(shares in thousands)** | **(shares in thousands)** |
| Nonvested restricted stock at December 31, 2024 | 868 | $426.40 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Granted | 1049 | 257.55 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Vested | (578) | 354.60 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forfeited | (108) | 318.50 |
| Nonvested restricted stock at December 31, 2025 | 1231 | $319.91 |

---

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

Approximately 31% of the nonvested restricted stock at December 31, 2025 included performance-based conditions.

The fair value of shares vested was $152 million during 2025, $157 million during 2024, and $236 million during 2023. Total compensation expense not yet recognized related to nonvested restricted stock was $237 million at December 31, 2025. We expect to recognize this compensation expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.7 years. There are no other contractual terms covering restricted stock once vested.

*Stock Options*

Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Our stock plans, as approved by the Board of Directors and stockholders, define fair market value as the average of the highest and lowest stock prices reported on the composite tape by the New York Stock Exchange on a given date. Exercise provisions vary, but most options vest in whole or in part 1 to 3 years after grant and expire 7 years after grant.

In 2025, no stock options were granted. The weighted-average fair value of each option granted during 2024 and 2023 is provided below. The fair value was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the weighted-average assumptions indicated below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **2024** | **2023** |
| Weighted-average fair value at grant date | $96.42 | $130.74 |
| Expected option life (years) | 3.5 years | 3.0 years |
| Expected volatility | 28.8% | 31.6% |
| Risk-free interest rate at grant date | 4.3% | 4.5% |
| Dividend yield | 0.9% | 0.7% |

---

We calculate the expected term for our employee stock options based on historical employee exercise behavior and base the risk-free interest rate on a traded zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a term substantially equal to the option's expected term.

The volatility used to value employee stock options is based on historical volatility. We calculate historical volatility using a simple-average calculation methodology based on daily price intervals as measured over the expected term of the option.

Activity for our option plans was as follows for the year ended December 31, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Shares Under<br>Option** | **Weighted-Average<br>Exercise Price** |
| | **(shares in thousands)** | **(shares in thousands)** |
| Options outstanding at December 31, 2024 | 375 | $404.61 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forfeited | (21) | 375.21 |
| Options outstanding at December 31, 2025 | 354 | $406.35 |
| Options exercisable at December 31, 2025 | 235 | $406.54 |

---

As of December 31, 2025, outstanding stock options, substantially all of which are expected to vest, had no intrinsic value, and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 3.8 years. As of December 31, 2025, exercisable stock options had no intrinsic value, and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 3.1 years. There was no intrinsic value of stock options exercised during 2025, compared with $0.1 million during 2024 and $3 million during 2023. No cash was received from stock option exercises in 2025. Cash received from stock option exercises totaled $0.3 million in 2024 and $9 million in 2023.

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

Total compensation expense not yet recognized related to nonvested options was $6 million at December 31, 2025. We expect to recognize this compensation expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 1 year.

***Stock Repurchases***

Our Board of Directors may authorize the purchase of our common shares. Under our share repurchase authorization, shares may have been purchased from time to time at prevailing prices in the open market, by block purchases, through plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or in privately-negotiated transactions (including pursuant to accelerated share repurchase agreements with investment banks), subject to certain regulatory restrictions on volume, pricing, and timing.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

Effective February 16, 2024, the Board of Directors replaced the February 2023 repurchase authorization (of which approximately $824 million remained unused) with a new share repurchase authorization for repurchases of up to $3 billion of our common shares exclusive of shares repurchased in connection with employee stock plans, expiring as of February 15, 2027, which we refer to as the 2024 repurchase authorization. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we repurchased 0.4 million shares in open market transactions for $100 million. These shares were repurchased at an average price of $233.73 under the February 2024 share repurchase authorization. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we repurchased 1.9 million shares in open market transactions for $750 million. These shares were repurchased at an average price of $384.65 under the February 2023 and 2024 share repurchase authorizations.

Our remaining repurchase authorization was $2.7 billion as of February 18, 2026.

Excluding shares acquired in connection with employee stock plans, share repurchases were as follows during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

In connection with employee stock plans, we acquired 0.2 million common shares for $51 million in 2025, 0.2 million common shares for $46 million in 2024, and 0.2 million common shares for $73 million in 2023.

***Regulatory Requirements***

Certain of our subsidiaries operate in states that regulate the payment of dividends, loans, or other cash transfers to Humana Inc., our parent company, and require minimum levels of equity as well as limit investments to approved securities. The amount of dividends that may be paid to Humana Inc. by these subsidiaries, without prior approval by state regulatory authorities, or ordinary dividends, is limited based on the entity's level of statutory income and statutory capital and surplus. If the dividend, together with other dividends paid within the preceding twelve months, exceeds a specified statutory limit or is paid from sources other than earned surplus, it is generally considered an extraordinary dividend requiring prior regulatory approval. In most states, prior notification is provided before paying a dividend even if approval is not required.

Although minimum required levels of equity are largely based on premium volume, product mix, and the quality of assets held, minimum requirements vary significantly at the state level. Our state regulated insurance subsidiaries had aggregate statutory capital and surplus of approximately $14.1 billion and $13.2 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which exceeded aggregate minimum regulatory requirements of $6.9 billion and $11.4 billion, respectively. The amount of ordinary dividends that may be paid to our parent company in 2026 is approximately $1.1 billion in the aggregate. The amount, timing and mix of ordinary and extraordinary dividend payments will vary due to state regulatory requirements, the level of excess statutory capital and surplus and expected future surplus requirements related to, for example, premium volume and product mix. Actual dividends that were paid to our parent company were approximately $1.1 billion in 2025, $1.5 billion in 2024, and $1.8 billion in 2023.

**17. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Purchase Obligations***

We have agreements to purchase services, primarily information technology related services, or to make improvements to real estate, in each case that are enforceable and legally binding on us and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum levels of service to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the appropriate timing of the transaction. We have purchase obligation commitments of $1.2 billion in 2026, $953 million in 2027, $595 million in 2028, $298 million in 2029, and $273 million in 2030. Purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty.

***Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements***

As part of our ongoing business, we do not participate or knowingly seek to participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, or SPEs, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of December 31, 2025, we were not involved in any SPE transactions.

***Guarantees and Indemnifications***

Through indemnity agreements approved by the state regulatory authorities, certain of our regulated subsidiaries generally are guaranteed by Humana Inc., our parent company, in the event of insolvency for (1) member coverage for which premium payment has been made prior to insolvency; (2) benefits for members then hospitalized until discharged; and (3) payment to providers for services rendered prior to insolvency. Our parent also has guaranteed the obligations of certain of our non-regulated subsidiaries and funding to maintain required statutory capital levels of certain regulated subsidiaries.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into contractual arrangements under which we may agree to indemnify a third-party to such arrangement from any losses incurred relating to the services they perform on behalf of us, or for losses arising from certain events as defined within the particular contract, which may include, for example, litigation or claims relating to past performance. Such indemnification obligations may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, payments made related to these indemnifications have been immaterial.

***Government Contracts***

Our Medicare products, which accounted for approximately 83% of our total premiums and services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily consisted of products covered under the Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan contracts with the federal government. These contracts are renewed generally for a calendar year term unless CMS notifies us of its decision not to renew by May 1 of the calendar year in which the contract would end, or we notify CMS of our decision not to renew by the first Monday in June of the calendar year in which the contract would end. All material contracts between Humana and CMS relating to our Medicare products have been renewed for 2026, and all of our product offerings filed with CMS and going to market for 2026 have been approved.

CMS uses a risk-adjustment model that adjusts premiums paid to Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans according to health status of covered members. The risk-adjustment model, which CMS implemented pursuant to the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) and the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA), generally pays more where a plan's membership has higher expected costs. Under this model, rates paid to MA plans are based on actuarially determined bids, which include a process whereby our prospective payments are based on our estimated cost of providing standard Medicare-covered benefits to an enrollee with a "national average risk profile." That baseline payment amount is adjusted to account for certain demographic characteristics and health status of our enrolled members. Under the risk-adjustment methodology, all MA plans must collect from providers and submit the necessary diagnosis code information to CMS within prescribed deadlines. The CMS risk-adjustment model uses the diagnosis data, collected from providers, to calculate the health status-related risk-adjusted premium payment to

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

MA plans, which CMS further adjusts for coding pattern differences between the health plans and the government fee-for-service (FFS) program. We generally rely on providers, including certain providers in our network who are our employees, to code their claim submissions with appropriate diagnoses, which we send to CMS as the basis for our health status-adjusted payment received from CMS under the actuarial risk-adjustment model. We also rely on these providers to document appropriately all medical data, including the diagnosis data submitted with claims. In addition, we conduct medical record reviews as part of our data and payment accuracy compliance efforts, to more accurately reflect diagnosis conditions under the risk adjustment model.

CMS and the Office of the Inspector General of Health and Human Services, or HHS-OIG, perform audits of various companies' risk adjustment diagnosis data submissions. We refer to these audits as Risk-Adjustment Data Validation Audits, or RADV audits. RADV audits review medical records in an attempt to validate provider medical record documentation and coding practices that influence the calculation of health status-related premium payments to MA plans.

In 2012, CMS released an MA contract-level RADV methodology that would extrapolate the results of each CMS RADV audit sample to the audited MA contract's entire health status-related risk adjusted premium amount for the year under audit. In doing so, CMS recognized "that the documentation standard used in RADV audits to determine a contract's payment error (medical records) is different from the documentation standard used to develop the Part C risk-adjustment model (FFS claims)." To correct for this difference, CMS stated that it would apply a "Fee-for-Service Adjuster (FFS Adjuster)" as "an offset to the preliminary recovery amount." This adjuster would be "calculated by CMS based on a RADV-like review of records submitted to support FFS claims data." CMS stated that this methodology would apply to audits beginning with payment year (PY) 2011. Humana relied on CMS's 2012 guidance in submitting MA bids to CMS. Humana also launched a "Self-Audits" program in 2013 that applied CMS's 2012 RADV audit methodology and included an estimated FFS Adjuster. Humana completed Self-Audits for PYs 2011-2016 and reported results to CMS.

In October 2018, however, CMS issued a proposed rule announcing possible changes to the RADV audit methodology, including elimination of the FFS Adjuster. CMS proposed (the "Proposed RADV Rule") applying its revised methodology, including extrapolated recoveries without application of a FFS Adjuster, to RADV audits dating back to PY 2011. On January 30, 2023, CMS published a final rule related to the RADV audit methodology (Final RADV Rule). The Final RADV Rule confirmed CMS's decision to eliminate the FFS Adjuster. The Final RADV Rule states CMS's intention to extrapolate results from CMS and HHS-OIG RADV audits beginning with PY 2018, rather than PY 2011 as proposed. However, CMS's Final RADV Rule does not adopt a specific sampling, extrapolation or audit methodology. CMS instead stated its general plan to rely on "any statistically valid method . . . that is determined to be well-suited to a particular audit."

We believe that the Final RADV Rule fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence and violates the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"). CMS failed to meet its legal obligations in the federal rulemaking process to give a reasoned justification for the rule or provide a meaningful opportunity for public comment. They also chose to apply the rule retroactively rather than prospectively, as required by law. Humana's actuarially certified bids through PY 2026 preserved Humana's position that CMS should apply an FFS Adjuster in any RADV audit that CMS intends to extrapolate. CMS confirmed its intent to apply the Final RADV Rule, including the first application of extrapolated audit results to determine audit settlements without the use of a FFS Adjuster, to CMS audits conducted for PY 2018 and subsequent years when it selected certain of Humana's MA contracts for PY 2018 RADV audits. Further, on May 21, 2025, CMS announced that it will conduct RADV audits for all eligible MA contracts for each payment year in all newly initiated audits and expedite the completion of RADV audits for PY 2018 through PY 2024 by early 2026. The Final RADV Rule, including the lack of a FFS Adjuster, and any related regulatory, industry or company reactions, the expansion of CMS's auditing efforts to include all eligible MA contracts, the acceleration of RADV audits for PY 2018 through PY 2024, other changes CMS may make to the RADV audit methodology for these years, and combination of these expanded auditing efforts with the application of the Final RADV Rule, could each have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

On September 1, 2023, Humana Inc. and Humana Benefit Plan of Texas, Inc. filed suit against the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and Xavier Becerra in his official capacity as Secretary, in the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division seeking a determination that the Final RADV Rule violates the APA and should be set aside. On September 25, 2025, the Court granted our motion for summary judgment and vacated the Final RADV Rule, finding that the Final RADV Rule was procedurally invalid under the APA because it was not a "logical outgrowth" of the Proposed RADV Rule. On November 21, 2025, the government notified the court of its appeal of that decision, which is now pending at the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and captioned Humana v Kennedy. There can be no assurances as to the final disposition of this lawsuit. We remain committed to working alongside CMS to promote the integrity of the MA program as well as affordability and cost certainty for our members. It is critical that MA plans are paid accurately and that payment model principles, including the application of a FFS Adjuster, are in accordance with the requirements of the Social Security Act, which, if not implemented correctly could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In addition, as part of our internal compliance efforts, we routinely perform ordinary course reviews of our internal business processes related to, among other things, our risk coding and data submissions in connection with the risk adjustment model. These reviews may also result in the identification of errors and the submission of corrections to CMS that may, either individually or in the aggregate, be material. As such, the result of these reviews may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Our state-based Medicaid business, which accounted for approximately 10% of our total premiums and services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily served members enrolled in Medicaid, and in certain circumstances members who qualify for both Medicaid and Medicare, under contracts with various states.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The loss of any of the contracts above or significant changes in these programs as a result of legislative or regulatory action, including reductions in premium payments to us, regulatory restrictions on profitability, or increases in member benefits or member eligibility criteria without corresponding increases in premium payments to us, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

***Legal Proceedings and Certain Regulatory Matters***

From time to time, the Civil Division of the United States Department of Justice has provided us with information requests, concerning our Medicare Part C risk adjustment practices. These requests relate to our oversight and submission of risk adjustment data generated by providers, as well as to our business and compliance practices related to risk adjustment data generated by our providers and by our Medicare Advantage Organizations. We continue to cooperate with the Department of Justice on these requests.

On September 1, 2023, Humana Inc. and Humana Benefit Plan of Texas, Inc. filed suit against the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and Xavier Becerra in his official capacity as Secretary, in the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division seeking a determination that the Final RADV Rule violates the APA and should be set aside. September 25, 2025, the Court granted our motion for summary judgment and vacated the Final RADV Rule, finding that the Final RADV Rule was procedurally invalid under the APA because it was not a "logical outgrowth" of the Proposed RADV Rule. On November 21, 2025, the government notified the court of its appeal of that decision, which is now pending at the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and captioned Humana v Kennedy. There can be no assurances as to the final disposition of this lawsuit. See "Government Contracts" in this Note 17 for additional information regarding this matter.

In June 2024, a putative stockholder class action was filed against Humana Inc. and certain of our current and former executive officers under the federal securities laws in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The case, now captioned In re Humana Inc. Securities Litigation, alleges that between July 2022 and October 2024, Humana made false or misleading statements in its periodic SEC filings and statements to the financial markets about our financial performance and the medical costs, Star Ratings and certain distribution relationships with respect to our Medicare Advantage business. The action seeks, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages and attorneys' fees. Between July 2024 and March 2025, parallel stockholder derivative

actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky, now consolidated and captioned In re Humana Shareholder Derivative Action, and Nicolaou v. Broussard, was filed in Commonwealth of Kentucky, Jefferson Circuit Court, alleging that the same claimed acts and omissions underlying the federal securities law case, as well as certain Medicare Advantage distribution relationships, also constitute a breach of fiduciary duty by certain of our current and former directors and executive officers. The actions seek, among other things, reforms to the Company's corporate governance and internal procedures, unspecified damages and attorneys' fees. We will vigorously defend against the allegations in all cases.

On October 18, 2024, Humana Inc., along with co-plaintiff Americans for Beneficiary Choice, filed suit against the United States Department of Health and Human Services and its Secretary, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and its Administrator, in the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, seeking a determination that they violated the Administrative Procedure Act in administering the Medicare Advantage and Part D Star Ratings program. On October 14, 2025, the Court issued a decision rejecting our challenge to the 2025 Star Ratings. On November 25, 2025, we notified the court of our appeal, which is now pending at the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. There is no assurance that we will ultimately prevail in the lawsuit. For additional information on this matter, refer to Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-K.

On May 1, 2025, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a complaint in partial intervention related to a qui tam lawsuit filed by an individual formerly employed by eHealth, Inc., in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The intervened lawsuit is captioned United States of America ex. rel. Andrew Shea v. eHealth, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:21-cv-11777-DJC. The complaint alleges certain civil violations in connection with non-commission payments Humana made to three call center broker partners. The complaint also includes allegations relating to Humana's marketing of Medicare Advantage plans to Medicare-eligible beneficiaries under the age of 65. The action seeks damages and penalties on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The court ordered the qui tam action unsealed following the filing of DOJ's complaint in partial intervention on May 1, 2025. We take seriously our obligations to comply with applicable regulatory requirements and laws, and will vigorously defend against these allegations.

On December 30, 2025, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit denied Humana's petition for permission to appeal a district court order certifying a class in the action of *David Elliott v Humana Inc*., alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA"), 47 U.S.C. §227. The class action will proceed in the United States District Court, Western District of Kentucky. We take seriously our obligations to comply with TCPA and other consumer privacy requirements, and we will vigorously defend against these allegations.

*Other Lawsuits and Regulatory Matters*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our current and past business practices are subject to review or other investigations by various state insurance and health care regulatory authorities and other state and federal regulatory authorities. These authorities regularly scrutinize the business practices of health insurance, health care delivery and benefits companies. These reviews focus on numerous facets of our business, including claims payment practices, statutory capital requirements, provider and vendor contracting and oversight, risk adjustment, competitive practices, commission payments, marketing payments, privacy issues, utilization management practices, pharmacy benefits, access to care, sales practices, and provision of care by our healthcare services businesses, among others. Some of these reviews have historically resulted in fines imposed on us and some have required changes to some of our practices. We continue to be subject to these reviews, which could result in additional fines or other sanctions being imposed on us or additional changes in some of our practices.

We also are involved in various other lawsuits that arise, for the most part, in the ordinary course of our business operations, certain of which may be styled as class-action lawsuits. Among other matters, this litigation may include employment matters, claims of medical malpractice, bad faith, personal injury, nonacceptance or termination of providers, anticompetitive practices, improper rate setting, provider contract rate and payment disputes, including disputes over reimbursement rates required by statute, disputes arising from competitive procurement process, general contractual matters, intellectual property matters, and challenges to subrogation

practices. Under state guaranty assessment laws, including those related to state cooperative failures in the industry, we may be assessed (up to prescribed limits) for certain obligations to the policyholders and claimants of insolvent insurance companies that write the same line or lines of business as we do.

As a government contractor, we may also be subject to false claims litigation, such as qui tam lawsuits brought by individuals who seek to sue on behalf of the government, alleging that the government contractor submitted false claims to the government or related overpayments from the government, including, among other allegations, those resulting from coding and review practices under the Medicare risk adjustment model. Qui tam litigation is filed under seal to allow the government an opportunity to investigate and to decide if it wishes to intervene and assume control of the litigation. If the government does not intervene, the individual may continue to prosecute the action on his or her own, on behalf of the government. We also are subject to other allegations of nonperformance of contractual obligations to providers, members, and others, including failure to properly pay claims, improper policy terminations, challenges to our implementation of the Medicare Part D prescription drug program and other litigation.

A limited number of the claims asserted against us are subject to insurance coverage. Personal injury claims, claims for extra contractual damages, care delivery malpractice, and claims arising from medical benefit denials are covered by insurance from our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary and excess carriers, except to the extent that claimants seek punitive damages, which may not be covered by insurance in certain states in which insurance coverage for punitive damages is not permitted. In addition, insurance coverage for all or certain forms of liability has become increasingly costly and may become unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the future.

We record accruals for the contingencies discussed in the sections above to the extent that we conclude it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. No estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, can be made at this time regarding the matters specifically described above because of the inherently unpredictable nature of legal proceedings, which also may be exacerbated by various factors, including: (i) the damages sought in the proceedings are unsubstantiated or indeterminate; (ii) discovery is not complete; (iii) the proceeding is in its early stages; (iv) the matters present legal uncertainties; (v) there are significant facts in dispute; (vi) there are a large number of parties (including where it is uncertain how liability, if any, will be shared among multiple defendants); or (vii) there is a wide range of potential outcomes.

The outcome of any current or future litigation or governmental or internal investigations, including the matters described above, cannot be accurately predicted, nor can we predict any resulting judgments, penalties, fines or other sanctions that may be imposed at the discretion of federal or state regulatory authorities or as a result of actions by third parties. Nevertheless, it is reasonably possible that any such outcome of litigation, judgments, penalties, fines or other sanctions could be substantial, and the outcome of these matters may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows, and may also affect our reputation.

**18. SEGMENT INFORMATION**

Our two reportable segments, Insurance and CenterWell, are based on a combination of the type of health plan customer and adjacent businesses centered on well-being solutions for our health plans and other customers, as described below. Our Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Decision Maker, utilizes these segment groupings and results of each segment, measured by income (loss) from operations, to assess performance and allocate resources primarily during our annual budget process and periodic forecast updates.

The Insurance segment consists of Medicare benefits, marketed to individuals or directly via group Medicare accounts, as well as our contract with CMS to administer the Limited Income Newly Eligible Transition, or LI-NET, prescription drug plan program and contracts with various states to provide Medicaid, dual eligible demonstration, and Long-Term Support Services benefits, which we refer to collectively as our state-based contracts. This segment also includes products consisting of specialty health insurance benefits marketed to individuals and employer groups, including dental, vision, and other supplemental health benefits. In addition, our Insurance segment includes our Military services business, primarily our T-5 East Region contract, as well as the operations of our PBM business.

------

**Humana Inc.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

The CenterWell segment includes our pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs. Our CenterWell intersegment revenues includes the operations of CenterWell Pharmacy (our mail-order pharmacy business), CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy, and retail pharmacies jointly located within CenterWell Senior primary care clinics. In addition, our CenterWell intersegment revenues include revenues earned by certain owned providers and our home solutions business, including fee-for-service and certain value-based arrangements with our health plans.

We present our consolidated results of operations from the perspective of the health plans. As a result, the cost of providing benefits to our members, whether provided via a third-party provider or internally through a stand-alone subsidiary, is classified as benefits expense and excludes the portion of the cost for which the health plans do not bear responsibility, including member co-share amounts and government subsidies of $14.1 billion in 2025, $20.3 billion in 2024, and $20.7 billion in 2023. In addition, depreciation and amortization expense associated with certain businesses delivering benefits to our members, primarily associated with our primary care and pharmacy solutions operations, are included with benefits expense. The amount of this expense was $125 million in 2025, $129 million in 2024, and $138 million in 2023.

Other than those described previously, the accounting policies of each segment are the same and are described in Note 2. Transactions between reportable segments primarily consist of sales of products and services rendered by our CenterWell segment, primarily pharmacy solutions, primary care, and home solutions, to our Insurance segment customers. Intersegment sales and expenses are recorded primarily at fair value and eliminated in consolidation. Members served by our segments often use the same provider networks, enabling us in some instances to obtain more favorable contract terms with providers. Our segments also share indirect costs and assets. As a result, the profitability of each segment is interdependent. We allocate most operating expenses to our segments. Assets and certain corporate income and expenses are not allocated to the segments, including the portion of investment income not supporting segment operations, interest expense on corporate debt, and certain other corporate expenses. These items are managed at a corporate level. These corporate amounts are reported separately from our reportable segments and are included with intersegment eliminations in the tables presenting segment results below. Premium and services revenues derived from our contracts with the federal government, as a percentage of our total premium and services revenues, were approximately 83% for 2025, 85% for 2024 and 84% for 2023.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

**19. REINSURANCE** 

Certain blocks of insurance assumed in acquisitions, primarily life and annuities in run-off status are subject to reinsurance where some or all of the underwriting risk related to these policies has been ceded to a third-party. In addition, a large portion of our reinsurance takes the form of 100% coinsurance agreements where, in addition to all of the underwriting risk, all administrative responsibilities, including premium collections and claim payment, have also been ceded to a third-party. We acquired these policies and related reinsurance agreements with the purchase of stock of companies in which the policies were originally written. We acquired these companies for business reasons unrelated to these particular policies, including the companies' other products and licenses necessary to fulfill strategic plans.

A reinsurance agreement between two entities transfers the underwriting risk of policyholder liabilities to a reinsurer while the primary insurer retains the contractual relationship with the ultimate insured. As such, these reinsurance agreements do not completely relieve us of our potential liability to the ultimate insured. However, given the transfer of underwriting risk, our potential liability is limited to the credit exposure which exists should the reinsurer be unable to meet its obligations assumed under these reinsurance agreements.

Reinsurance recoverables represent the portion of future policy benefits payable and benefits payable that are covered by reinsurance. Reinsurance recoverables, included in other long-term assets, were $159 million at December 31, 2025 and $167 million at December 31, 2024. The amount of these reinsurance recoverables resulting from 100% coinsurance agreements was approximately $159 million at December 31, 2025 and approximately $167 million at December 31, 2024. Premiums ceded were $7 million in 2025, $5 million in 2024 and $1 million in 2023. Benefits ceded were $3 million in 2025, $4 million in 2024, and $3 million in 2023.

We evaluate the financial condition of our reinsurers on a regular basis. Protective Life Insurance Company, with $146 million in reinsurance recoverables, is well-known and well-established with a AM Best rating of A+ at December 31, 2025. The remaining reinsurance recoverables of $13 million are divided between 7 other reinsurers, with none subject to funds withheld accounts or other financial guarantees supporting the repayment of these amounts.

During 2025, we entered an agreement with an unrelated insurer that does not qualify for reinsurance accounting under GAAP, and is accounted for using deposit accounting accordingly. We entered into this contract to minimize the risk of catastrophic loss, reducing capital and surplus requirements. Total deposit assets and liabilities related to the reinsurance agreement that does not qualify for reinsurance accounting under GAAP was not material as of December 31, 2025.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Humana Inc.

***Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Humana Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of stockholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the COSO.

***Basis for Opinions***

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

***Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance

------

with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

***Critical Audit Matters***

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

*Valuation of Incurred but not yet Reported Benefits Payable*

As described in Notes 2 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's incurred but not yet reported benefits payable (IBNR) was $6.6 billion as of December 31, 2025. Management develops its estimate for IBNR using actuarial methodologies and assumptions, primarily based upon historical claim experience. Actuarial standards of practice generally require a level of confidence such that the liabilities established for IBNR have a greater probability of being adequate versus being insufficient. For periods prior to the most recent two months, a completion factor method uses historical paid claims patterns to estimate the percentage of claims incurred during a given period that have historically been adjudicated as of the reporting period. Changes in claim inventory levels and known changes in claim payment processes are taken into account in these estimates. For the most recent two months, the incurred claims are estimated primarily from a trend analysis based upon per member per month claims trends developed from historical experience in the preceding months, adjusted for known changes in estimates of hospital admissions, recent hospital and drug utilization data, provider contracting changes, changes in benefit levels, changes in member cost sharing, changes in medical management processes, product mix and workday seasonality.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of IBNR is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimate of IBNR; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the actuarial methodologies and management's significant assumptions related to completion factors and per member per month claims trends; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of IBNR, including controls over the actuarial methodologies and development of significant assumptions related to completion factors and per member per month claims trends. These procedures also included, among others, the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in developing an independent estimate of IBNR. This independent estimate includes a range of reasonable outcomes which are compared to management's estimate of IBNR. Developing the independent estimate involved developing independent completion factors and per member per month claims trends assumptions using management's data, testing the completeness and accuracy of data provided by management, and evaluating the reasonableness of management's assumptions.

*Impairment Assessments – Home Solutions Reporting Unit Goodwill and Certificates of Need Intangible Assets*

As described in Notes 2 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's goodwill balance was $9.7 billion as of December 31, 2025, of which $4.4 billion relates to the Home Solutions reporting unit. The Company's

------

other intangible assets balance was $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2025, of which $0.8 billion relates to the Certificates of Need intangible assets. Impairment tests are performed, at a minimum, in the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently if adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Management uses future discounted cash flows analyses to determine fair value. Key assumptions in management's future discounted cash flow analyses include revenue growth rates, long-term growth rates, operating cost trends, projected operating income, and discount rates. The annual impairment assessment of the Certificates of Need intangible assets resulted in an impairment charge of $0.1 billion in the year ended December 31, 2025.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessments of the Home Solutions reporting unit goodwill and the Certificates of Need intangible assets is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimates of the Home Solutions reporting unit goodwill and the Certificates of Need intangible assets; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management's significant assumptions related to revenue growth rates, long-term growth rates, projected operating income, including operating cost trends, and discount rates; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management's impairment assessments, including controls over the significant assumptions used in the valuation of the Home Solutions reporting unit goodwill and the Certificates of Need intangible assets. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management's processes for developing the fair value estimates of the Home Solutions reporting unit goodwill and the Certificates of Need intangible assets; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flows analyses; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the analyses; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to revenue growth rates, long-term growth rates, projected operating income, including operating cost trends, and discount rates. Evaluating management's assumptions related to revenue growth rates, long-term growth rates and projected operating income, including operating cost trends involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering the past performance of the Home Solutions reporting unit and the Certificates of Need intangible assets and whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the appropriateness of the Company's discounted cash flows analyses and the reasonableness of the significant assumptions related to the long-term growth rates and discount rates.

Not applicable.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Management's Responsibility for Financial Statements and Other Information**

We are responsible for the preparation and integrity of the consolidated financial statements appearing in our Annual Report. The consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and include amounts based on our estimates and judgments. All other financial information in this report has been presented on a basis consistent with the information included in the financial statements.

Our control environment is the foundation for our system of internal control over financial reporting and is embodied in our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, which we currently refer to as the Humana Inc. Ethics Every Day. It sets the tone of our organization and includes factors such as integrity and ethical values. Our internal control over financial reporting is supported by formal policies and procedures which are reviewed, modified and improved as changes occur in business conditions and operations.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is composed solely of independent outside directors, meets periodically with members of management, the internal auditors and our independent registered public accounting firm to review and discuss internal controls over financial reporting and accounting and financial reporting matters. Our independent registered public accounting firm and internal auditors report to the Audit Committee and accordingly have full and free access to the Audit Committee at any time.

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to members of senior management and the Board of Directors.

Based on our evaluation as of December 31, 2025, we as the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer and the principal accounting officer of the Company have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

**Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

------

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in *Internal Control – Integrated Framework* (2013). Based on our assessment, we determined that, as of December 31, 2025, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, who also audited the Company's consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as stated in their report which appears on pages 113-115.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) None.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) During the three months ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

**Humana Inc.**

**SCHEDULE I—PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL INFORMATION**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

Parent company financial information has been derived from our consolidated financial statements and excludes the accounts of all operating subsidiaries. This information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K for a summary of significant accounting policies.

 **2. TRANSACTIONS WITH SUBSIDIARIES**

***Services Fee***

Through intercompany service agreements approved, if required, by state regulatory authorities, Humana Inc., our parent company, charges a services fee for reimbursement of certain centralized services provided to its subsidiaries including information systems, disbursement, investment and cash administration, marketing, legal, finance, and medical and executive management oversight.

***Dividends***

Cash dividends received from subsidiaries and included as a component of net cash provided by operating activities were $1.1 billion in 2025, $1.5 billion in 2024, and $1.8 billion in 2023.

***Guarantee***

Through indemnity agreements approved by state regulatory authorities, certain of our regulated subsidiaries generally are guaranteed by our parent company in the event of insolvency for: (1) member coverage for which premium payment has been made prior to insolvency; (2) benefits for members then hospitalized until discharged; and (3) payment to providers for services rendered prior to insolvency. Our parent has also guaranteed the obligations of our military services subsidiaries and funding to maintain required statutory capital levels of certain other regulated subsidiaries.

***Intercompany Note***

In December 2025, we entered into a $665 million note payable in relation to self-insured arrangements with Managed Care Indemnity, Inc., our wholly-owned captive subsidiary. The note matures in one year due December 2026, bearing interest at Term SOFR or the base rate plus a spread. The SOFR spread varies depending on our credit ratings ranging from 79.5 to 130.0 basis points. As of December 31, 2025, our SOFR spread was 101.5 basis points.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS**

Certain of our subsidiaries operate in states that regulate the payment of dividends, loans, or other cash transfers to Humana Inc., our parent company, and require minimum levels of equity as well as limit investments to approved securities. The amount of dividends that may be paid to Humana Inc. by these subsidiaries, without prior approval by state regulatory authorities, or ordinary dividends, is limited based on the entity's level of statutory income and statutory capital and surplus. If the dividend, together with other dividends paid within the preceding twelve months, exceeds a specified statutory limit or is paid from sources other than earned surplus, it is generally considered an extraordinary dividend requiring prior regulatory approval. In most states, prior notification is provided before paying a dividend even if approval is not required.

Although minimum required levels of equity are largely based on premium volume, product mix, and the quality of assets held, minimum requirements vary significantly at the state level. Our state regulated insurance subsidiaries had aggregate statutory capital and surplus of approximately $14.1 billion and $13.2 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which exceeded aggregate minimum regulatory requirements of $6.9

**NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)**

billion and $11.4 billion, respectively. The amount of ordinary dividends that may be paid to our parent company in 2026 is approximately $1.1 billion in the aggregate. The amount, timing and mix of ordinary and extraordinary dividend payments will vary due to state regulatory requirements, the level of excess statutory capital and surplus and expected future surplus requirements related to, for example, premium volume and product mix. Actual dividends that were paid to our parent company were approximately $1.1 billion in 2025, $1.5 billion in 2024, and $1.8 billion in 2023.

Our use of operating cash flows derived from our non-insurance subsidiaries, such as in our Healthcare Services segment, is generally not restricted by state departments of insurance (or comparable state regulators).

**<u>HUMANA INC.</u> EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE POLICY**

This Humana Inc. Executive Severance Policy has been adopted by the Organization & Compensation Committee (the "<u>Committee</u>") of the Board of Directors of the Company to apply to selected executive employees of the Company. Executives will be eligible for coverage under the Policy for the payment of severance benefits upon termination of employment under certain circumstances, subject to the conditions set forth below. This Policy shall be effective as of the Effective Date as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Definitions</u>. For purposes of this Policy, the following terms shall have the following meaning:

"*Annual Base Salary*" shall mean an Executive's stated annual compensation without regard to any bonus, perquisite or other benefits.

"*Annual Bonus*" means the annual bonus or incentive compensation payable to Executive under the Company's annual bonus or incentive compensation program in which Executive participates from time to time.

"*Cause*" means (i) a felony conviction of Executive, (ii) the failure of Executive to contest prosecution for a felony, or (iii) Executive's willful misconduct or dishonesty, any of which is determined by the Compensation Committee to be directly and materially harmful to the business or reputation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

"*CEO*" shall mean the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.

*"CEO Direct Reports"* shall mean Executive Officers of the Company who are direct reports to the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.

"*Date of Termination*" means the effective date of the relevant Executive's termination of employment with the Company.

"*Effective Date*" means March 1, 2023, or such later date as determined by the Compensation Committee with respect to an Executive.

"*Executive*" means Executive Officers of the Company (including the CEO) and such other individuals as identified by the Compensation Committee, in each case employed by the Company or an affiliate of the Company on a full-time or part-time basis. Individuals will continue to be deemed an "Executive" eligible for the rights and benefits under this Policy for a

1 \| P a g e

------

period of twelve (12) months following a change in role or title at the Company that would otherwise have caused the individual to cease to be an eligible Executive Officer or other individual identified by the Compensation Committee as eligible.

"*Executive Officer*" shall include those executive officers designated by the Board under Rule 16a-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

"*Policy*" means this Humana Inc. Executive Severance Policy.

*"Separation from Service"* means a termination of the employment relationship of the Executive with the Company or an affiliate within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(h) or any successor thereto.

"*Severance Period*" means (i) for the CEO, twenty-four (24) months following the Date of Termination, (ii) for CEO Direct Reports, eighteen (18) months following the Date of Termination and (iii) for all other Executives, six (6) months plus two (2) weeks per year of completed service.

"*Severance Rate"* means (i) for the CEO and Executive Officers of the Company who are direct reports to the CEO, such Executive's then current Annual Base Salary plus the target annual bonus or incentive compensation which could have been earned by such Executive, calculated as if all relevant goals had been met during the Company's then-current fiscal year pursuant to the terms of the incentive compensation plan in which the CEO participates, and (ii) for all of Executives, such Executive's then current Annual Base Salary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.<u>Term of Policy</u>. The term of this Policy shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until modified or terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 13 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.<u>Termination</u>. The Company may terminate the employment of Executive for any reason and at any time. In the event that the Company terminates the employment of Executive without Cause, Executive shall be entitled to the following rights and benefits under this Section 3:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1<u>Severance Benefits</u>. Subject to Executive's compliance with all terms of this Policy, including, without limitation, Sections 5 and 6 hereof:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)<u>Salary Continuation Payments</u>. The Company will pay Executive salary continuation through the Severance Period at an annual rate equal to such Executive's Severance Rate; <u>provided</u> that any payments that would otherwise be paid during the Severance Period that remain outstanding as of March 15 of the year following the year during which the Date of Termination occurred shall be paid in a lump sum on such date. Salary continuation under this Section 3.1 shall be paid on a bi-weekly basis in accordance with the Company's customary payroll practices with the first payment to be made in accordance with Section 5 hereof, subject to the accelerated payment of the remaining amounts in accordance with the prior sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)Pro-Rata <u>Bonus</u>. The Company will pay Executive an amount equal to the product of (A) the Annual Bonus, if any, that Executive would have earned for the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs, based on achievement of the applicable

2 \| P a g e

------

performance goals for each such calendar year, as uniformly applied to other Executives who remain employed through the end of the applicable performance period and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days Executive was employed by the Company during the calendar year of termination, and the denominator of which is the number of days in such calendar year. This amount shall be paid on the date that Annual Bonuses are normally paid, but in no event later than March 15th of the year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)<u>Continued Health Benefit Coverage</u>. The Company will provide to each Executive and Executive's eligible dependents, through the end of the (i) applicable Severance Period for such Executive, or (ii) the effective date of Executive's coverage under equivalent benefits from a new employer (provided that no such equivalent benefits shall be considered effective unless and until all pre-existing condition limitations and waiting period restrictions have been waived or have otherwise lapsed), at the Compensation Committee's option, either (A) continued medical and dental coverage under the Company's health care plan at the same level of coverage to which such Executive was entitled on the Date of Termination, subject to eligibility requirements and other conditions contained in the plan, including the requirement that Executive continue to pay the "employee portion" of the cost thereof, or (B) equivalent benefits (or equivalent cash value, payable on an after-tax basis), as determined in the sole reasonable discretion of the Compensation Committee. The coverage provided pursuant to this Section 3.1(iii) shall be in satisfaction of the Company's obligation to provide coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)<u>Outplacement Services; Financial Planning</u>. The Company will provide an Executive who is the CEO or a CEO Direct Report or otherwise designated by the Committee (i) with financial planning services during the one year period immediately following the Date of Termination on the same terms as the financial planning services were provided to such Executive immediately prior to the Date of Termination, and (ii) with outplacement services through an outplacement firm of the Company's choosing at a level of services to be determined by the Company, with such services to extend until the earlier of (A) one year following the Date of Termination or (B) the date Executive secures full time employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2<u>Accrued Rights</u>. Within fifteen (15) business days following the Date of Termination, the Company will pay or provide Executive with (i) all accrued but unpaid base salary through the Date of Termination, (ii) vacation pay accrued but not used in accordance with the Company's vacation pay policy, (iii) any previously awarded but unpaid Annual Bonus for a completed calendar year prior to the Date of Termination, (iv) any unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable under the Company's business expense policy, and (v) all rights and benefits under the employee benefit plans of the Company in which Executive is then participating, (collectively, the "<u>Accrued Rights</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3<u>No Additional Rights</u>. Except as provided in this Section 3, Executive's participation under any benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement sponsored or maintained by the Company shall be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive's eligibility for and active participation in any of the retirement plans maintained by the Company will end on the Date of Termination and Executive will earn no additional benefits, including, without limitation, any additional service

3 \| P a g e

------

credit, under those plans after that date. Executive shall be treated as a terminated employee for purposes of all such benefit plans and programs effective as of the Date of Termination, and shall receive all payments and benefits due under such plans and programs in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.<u>Other Terminations</u>. The Company may terminate the employment of Executive for any reason and at any time. In the event that the Company terminates the employment of Executive during the term of the Policy, other than a termination of employment by the Company for Cause, the Company will pay or provide Executive with all Accrued Rights. Executive may terminate his or her employment for any reason and at any time and shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits under this Policy by reason of such termination of employment from the Company. This Policy shall have no effect on the rights and benefits to which an Executive is entitled upon retirement under (without limitation) any retirement or savings plan of the Company, which shall be governed exclusively by the terms of such plans and agreements, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Release</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1As a condition precedent to receiving the payments and benefits as provided herein, Executive will execute (and not revoke) a general release of claims (the "<u>Release</u>"), in a form provided by the Company. If Executive fails to execute and deliver the Release, or revokes the Release, Executive agrees that he shall not be entitled to receive the payments and benefits described herein. For purposes of this Policy, the Release shall be considered to have been executed by Executive if it is signed by Executive's legal representative in the case of legal incompetence or on behalf of Executive's estate in the case of Executive's death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2Except as otherwise specified or agreed to by Executive and the Company, payment of any amounts described hereunder that are subject to the Release will begin on the 60th day following the Date of Termination, with the first such payment to include any amounts attributable to payroll intervals occurring prior to such date, provided, however, that, to the extent that the payments are exempt from Section 409A of the Code, such exempt payments shall be made beginning with the first payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.<u>Restrictive Covenants</u>. In consideration of Executive's employment by, position with and access to confidential information and trade secrets of the Company and the rights and benefits provided by this Policy, the sufficiency of which Executive acknowledges, Executive hereby agrees and acknowledges by his/her signature on the Executive Severance Policy Acknowledgment that the covenants attached as <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto are effective as of the Effective Date hereof (the "<u>Restrictive Covenants Effective Date</u>"), with the restricted period for such non- competition and non-solicitation covenants to be the applicable Severance Period for the Executive, commencing upon the Date of Termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.<u>Section 409A</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1<u>Compliance</u>. It is intended that this Policy be exempt from the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and this Policy shall be construed, administered, and governed in a

4 \| P a g e

------

manner consistent with this intent. If and to the extent that any payment or benefit under this Policy is determined by the Company to constitute "non-qualified deferred compensation" subject to Section 409A of the Code and is payable to Executive by reason of Executive's termination of employment, then such payment or benefit shall be made or provided to Executive only upon a Separation from Service as defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Each severance payment under this Policy will be considered a "separate payment" and not one of a series of payments for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any benefits to be provided to Executive pursuant to this Policy are considered nonqualified deferred compensation and are reimbursements subject to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv), then (i) the reimbursement of eligible expenses related to such benefits shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive's taxable year following the Executive's taxable year in which the expense was incurred and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Policy or any plan providing for such benefits, the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any taxable year of the Executive shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Nothing in this Policy will provide a basis for any person to take action against the Company or its affiliates based on matters covered by Section 409A of the Code and in no event will the Company or its affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Executive under Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2<u>Six Month Delay for Specified Executives</u>. To the extent that any amount payable or benefit to be provided under this Policy constitutes a nonexempt "nonqualified deferred compensation plan" (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) upon a Separation from Service, and to the extent an Executive is deemed to be a "specified employee" (as that term is defined in Section 409A of the Code and pursuant to procedures established by the Company) on the Date of Termination, notwithstanding any other provision in this Policy to the contrary, such payment or benefit provision will not be made to the Executive during the six month period immediately following the Date of Termination. Instead, on the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination, all amounts that otherwise would have been paid or provided to the Executive during the six month period, but were not paid or provided because of this Section 7.2, will be paid or provided to the Executive at such time without interest. This six month delay will cease to be applicable if the Executive incurs a Separation from Service due to death or if the Executive dies before the six month period has expired.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Withholding Taxes</u>. All compensation payable pursuant to this Policy shall be subject to reduction by all applicable withholding, social security and other federal, state and local taxes and deductions, and the Company shall be authorized to make all such withholdings to the extent it determines necessary under applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.<u>Acknowledgment</u>. Executive acknowledges that this Policy does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain Executive as an employee and that this Policy does not prevent Executive from terminating employment at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.<u>Non-Duplication of Benefits; CIC Policy</u>. The severance benefit under this Policy is not intended to duplicate any other benefits provided by the Company in connection with the termination of an employee's employment, such as wage replacement benefits, pay-in-lieu-of-

5 \| P a g e

------

notice, severance pay, or similar benefits under any other benefit plans, severance programs, employment contracts, or applicable federal or state laws, such as the WARN Acts. Should such other benefits be payable, the severance benefit under this Policy will be reduced accordingly or, alternatively, severance benefits previously paid under this Policy will be treated as having been paid to satisfy such other benefit obligations. In either case, the Company will determine how to apply this provision and may override other provisions in this Policy in doing so. In addition, and notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent Executive is entitled to severance payments and benefits upon termination of employment pursuant to the Company's Change in Control Policy or any other change in control arrangements, this Policy will cease to apply and Executive's entitlement to severance benefits shall be governed solely by the Change in Control Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.<u>Administration</u>. The Compensation Committee is responsible for the administration of this Policy and shall have all powers and duties necessary to fulfill its responsibilities. The Compensation Committee shall determine any and all questions of fact, resolve all questions of interpretation of the Policy which may arise, and exercise all other powers and discretion necessary to be exercised under the terms of the Policy which it is herein given or for which no contrary provision is made. The Compensation Committee shall have full power and discretion to interpret the Policy and related documents, to resolve ambiguities, inconsistencies and omissions, to determine any question of fact, and to determine the rights and benefits, if any, of any Executive or other employee, in accordance with the provisions of the Policy. The Compensation Committee's decision with respect to any matter shall be final and binding on all parties concerned. The validity of any such interpretation, construction, decision, or finding of fact shall not be given de novo review if challenged in court, by arbitration, or in any other forum, and shall be upheld unless clearly arbitrary or capricious. The Compensation Committee may, from time to time, by action of its appropriate officers, delegate to designated persons or entities the right to exercise any of its powers or the obligation to carry out its duties under the Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.<u>Amendment and Termination</u>. The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate this Policy at any time and in any manner, without consent or advance notice to Executives or other employees. No amendment or termination of the Policy shall affect the rights of an Executive whose Date of Termination has occurred prior to the date of such amendment or termination of the Policy and who remains entitled to severance payments or benefits under this Policy.

Adopted by the Board of Directors on February 15, 2023, amended on February 18, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)Frozen Benefits.** The following benefits were frozen as of the dates indicated, and no additional benefits may be earned under this subsection.

No Retirement Benefit will accrue after the date the annual retirement contribution for the plan year beginning January 1, 2010, is made to the applicable Qualified Plan.

A Participant's accruals may be allocated in one percent increments among one or more of the Investment Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)<u>OTRP Rollover</u>.** Amounts allocated to a Participant's OTRP Account shall initially be deemed to be invested in the applicable age appropriate target retirement fund Investment Option.

on or after such date, but in no event later than the last day of the Plan Year that contains such date or, if later, by the 15<sup>th</sup> day of the third month following such date and the Participant is not permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the taxable year of the payment; provided, however, that this Section 5.2 shall not apply if the Participant's Separation from Service occurs by reason of his or her death. If this Section 5.2 applies and the method of distribution of the Participant's Benefits is not a lump sum, the first payment to the Participant will include all amounts that would have been paid during the six-month period but for this Section 5.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.3<u>Standard Form of Distribution.</u>** If a Participant does not elect an alternative form of distribution in accordance with Section 5.4, the Participant's distribution will be made in the form of a single lump-sum payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.4<u>Alternative Forms of Distribution</u>.** Before the date that is 30 days after a Participant's Participation Date, a Participant may elect one of the following alternative forms of distribution:

Effective January 1, 2026, if a Participant's benefit payments are in the form of installments, the Participant's Accounts will be deemed to remain invested according to the Participant's investment elections as provided in Section 4.3; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**An annuity in any form permitted from the Retirement Savings Plan at the time of a Participant's election; provided, however, that an annuity form of distribution will only be available if (i) the Participant's balance in the account from which the annuity payment would be made exceeds $100,000, or such lesser amount, if any, permitted under Section 409A, and (ii) the election (including any change described in Section 5.5) was made before January 1, 2011.

A Participant's initial election pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall become irrevocable on the 30<sup>th</sup> day after the Participant's Participation Date. Except for changes made to the form of distribution in accordance with Section 5.5, the Participant's initial election will be the sole form of distribution of all Benefits that accrue to that Participant under this Plan, except that a Participant's Initial Year Contribution will be paid at the time and in the manner provided for in Sections 5.1 and 5.3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.5<u>Changes to Form of Distribution.</u>** At any time after the date that is 30 days after a Participant's Participation Date, a Participant may change that form of distribution to one of the alternative forms of distribution provided in Sections 5.3 or 5.4(a), provided that any change to the form of distribution (i) will not be effective for 12 months after the date on which such election is made, (ii) must be made not less than 12 months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment of the Participant's Account balance, and (iii) will result in a Payment Commencement Date that is at least five years after the previously scheduled Payment Commencement Date. A Participant may not change any Change in Control election (or non-election) the Participant has made under Section 5.6.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.6<u>Change in Control Election.</u>** Prior to the date that is 30 days after a Participant's Participation Date, a Participant may make a separate election that in the event of a Change in Control which also constitutes a "change in ownership or effective control" of the Company or a "change in ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of" the Company, in each case within the meaning of Section 409A, his or her Account balance shall be distributed in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)**A lump sum to be paid at the effective time of the Change in Control; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**A lump sum to be paid following the Participant's Separation from Service within two years following the Change in Control.

If the Participant does not make a separate Change in Control election, his or her Account balance will be paid at the time and in the manner provided for in Sections 5.1, 5.2 or, except for the Participant's Initial Year Contribution, pursuant to the Participant's alternative election made in accordance with Section 5.3or 5.4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.7<u>Rabbi Trust.</u>** Upon the effective date of a Change in Control, the Sponsoring Employer shall create a "Rabbi Trust" (i.e., a grantor trust described in IRS Revenue Procedure 92-64 designed to hold funds to be used to pay benefits under a deferred compensation arrangement without such funds becoming taxable to the Participants entitled to such benefits until paid to such Participants) in the form similar to that set forth on Appendix B with a major financial institution selected by the Sponsoring Employer to which the Sponsoring Employer shall transfer funds in an amount equal to the aggregate balance of all Participants' Accounts as of the date of the Change in Control, but excluding amounts to be paid in a lump sum immediately following the Change in Control. The Sponsoring Employer shall continue to transfer funds to the Rabbi Trust following the Change in Control, no less frequently than annually, so that the assets of the Rabbi Trust remain equal to the aggregate balance of all Participants' Benefits payable pursuant to the terms of the Plan as of the Change in Control plus any benefits that accrue under the Plan following the Change in Control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.8<u>Source of Funding.</u>** The Accounts established under this Plan shall not be funded but shall constitute liabilities of the Sponsoring Employer, payable when due from the general assets of the Employer or, if a Rabbi Trust has been established pursuant to Section 5.7, such Rabbi Trust. No Participant or other person shall have any right or claim to the payment of any Account which in any manner whatsoever is superior to or different from the right or claim of a general and unsecured creditor of the Sponsoring Employer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.9<u>Distributions to Beneficiaries.</u>** If at the time of a Participant's death a distribution is still outstanding, the remaining Account balance shall be paid to the Participant's Beneficiary in a single lump sum as soon as practicable following the death of the Participant and the determination of the Beneficiary but in no event later than 90 days after the Participant's death. If a Participant's death occurs while any amount remains in the Participant's Accounts and the Participant's Beneficiary does not survive the Participant, the remaining Account balance shall be paid to the Participant's Secondary Beneficiary. If a deceased Participant is not survived by either a Beneficiary or Secondary Beneficiary (or if no Beneficiary was effectively named), the remaining Account balance shall be paid in a single sum to the estate of the Participant and the Plan Administrator shall be fully protected in paying the Account balance to the deceased

Participant's personal representative, irrespective of whether payments are actually made to a person or persons who in fact are not the personal representative of the deceased Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.10<u>Accelerated Distribution Upon Loss of Tax Deferral.</u>** In the event that this Plan fails to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A and as a consequence a Participant becomes subject to federal income tax on all or any portion of his or her Account Balance for which such Participant is not then scheduled to receive a distribution under the Plan, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or distribution election made by such Participant, the Plan Administrator shall accelerate the payment of that portion of the Participant's Accounts which the Plan Administrator reasonably determines to be subject to such taxation in a lump sum payable on a date determined by the Plan Administrator.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.11<u>Payment to Persons of Diminished Legal Capacity.</u>** In making any payment to or for the benefit of any minor or incompetent Beneficiary, or incompetent Participant, the Plan Administrator, in its sole, absolute and uncontrolled discretion, may, but need not, make such payment to a legal or natural guardian or other relative of such minor or court appointed committee of such incompetent, or to any adult with whom such minor or incompetent temporarily or permanently resides, and any such guardian, committee, relative or other person shall have full authority and discretion to expend such distribution for the use and benefit of such minor or incompetent, and the receipt by such guardian, committee, relative or other person shall be a complete discharge to the Employer, without any responsibility on its part to see to the application thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.**Company has incurred or expects to incur liability under the terms of such Plan with respect to the individuals participating in such Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.**Company wishes to establish a trust (hereinafter called "Trust") and to contribute to the Trust assets that shall be held therein, subject to the claims of Company's creditors in the event of Company's Insolvency (as herein defined), until paid to Plan participants and their beneficiaries in such manner and at such times as specified in the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.**It is the intention of the parties that this Trust shall constitute an unfunded arrangement and shall not affect the status of the Plan as an unfunded plan maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.**It is the intention of Company to make contributions to the Trust to provide itself with a source of funds to assist it in the meeting of its liabilities under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(b)***The Trust hereby established is revocable by Company; it shall become irrevocable upon a "Change in Control" as that term is defined in the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(c)***The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which Company is the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J, chapter 1, subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed accordingly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(d)***The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from other funds of Company and shall be used exclusively for the uses and purposes of Plan participants and general creditors as herein set forth. Plan participants and their beneficiaries shall have no preferred claim on, or

Any rights created under the Plan and this Trust Agreement shall be mere unsecured contractual rights of Plan participants and their beneficiaries against Company. Any assets held by the Trust will be subject to the claims of Company's general creditors under federal and state law in the event of Insolvency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(e)***Company, in its sole discretion, may at any time, or from time to time, make additional deposits of cash or other property in trust with Trustee to augment the principal to be held, administered and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust Agreement. Neither Trustee nor any Plan participant or beneficiary shall have any right to compel such additional deposits.

Except as otherwise provided herein, Trustee shall make payments to the Plan participants and their beneficiaries in accordance with such Payment Schedule. The Trustee shall make provision for the reporting and withholding of any federal, state or local taxes that may be required to be withheld with respect to the payment of benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plan and shall pay amounts withheld to the appropriate taxing authorities or determine that such amounts have been reported, withheld and paid by Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(b)***The entitlement of a Plan participant or his or her beneficiaries to benefits under the Plan shall be determined by Company or such party as it shall designate under the Plan, and any claim for such benefits shall be considered and reviewed under the procedures set out in the Plan.

Trustee shall notify Company where principal and earnings are not sufficient.

Trustee may in all events rely on such evidence concerning Company's solvency as may be furnished to Trustee and that provides Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a determination concerning Company's solvency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(c)***Provided that there are sufficient assets, if Trustee discontinues the payment of benefits from the Trust pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof and subsequently resumes such payments, the first payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount of all payments due to Plan participants or their beneficiaries under the terms of the Plan for the period of such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any payments made to Plan participants or their beneficiaries by Company in lieu of the payments provided for hereunder during any such period of discontinuance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.PAYMENTS TO COMPANY**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(c)***All amounts paid to Trustee by Company shall be held and administered by Trustee as a single trust and Trustee shall not be required to segregate and invest separately any part of the Trust representing interests of individual Plan participants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***(d)***Neither any Plan participant nor their beneficiaries shall have any authority or control whatsoever over the investments of the Trust.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.*Entire Agreement*: This Agreement, the Executive Severance Policy (as modified herein), the Retirement Equalization Plan and the Stock Agreements reflect the entire understanding between Humana and you with respect to compensation and benefits available during your service in the Interim Role and VSP Role, and no statements, promises or inducements, whether written or oral, made by either party that are not contained in this Agreement, the Executive Severance Policy (as modified herein), the Retirement Equalization Plan or the Stock Agreements shall be valid or binding upon the parties to this Agreement.

Humana agrees to negotiate in good faith with you to make amendments to the Agreement, as both parties mutually agree are necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A. If an amount to be paid under this Agreement is payable in two or more installments, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits subject to the requirements of Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A, and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a "termination," "termination of employment," or like terms shall mean a "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following your separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following your separation from service. Neither Humana nor you will have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A. The Company shall indemnify and hold you harmless if you incur additional tax under Section 409A as a result of a violation of Section 409A under this Agreement (an "Indemnified Section 409A Violation") that

------

In the event of an Indemnified Section 409A Violation, the Company shall reimburse you for (1) the 20% additional income tax described in Section 409A(a)(1)(B)(i)(II) of the Code (to the extent that you incur the 20% additional income tax as a result of the Indemnified Section 409A Violation), and (2) any interest or penalty that is assessed with respect to your failure to make a timely payment of the 20% additional income tax described in clause (1), provided that you pay the 20% additional income tax promptly upon being notified that the tax is due.

**FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS** 

Amendment 2025-1

Article 8 of the Humana Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the "Plan") allows Humana Inc. (the "Company"), by action of the Board, to amend the Plan at any time. Accordingly, the Plan is hereby amended, effective as of January 1, 2026 ("Effective Date") with respect to Investment Options (as defined in the Plan document) offered to participants in the plan and the default investment option determined by the Plan Administrator (as defined in the Plan document).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.Section 2.17 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

"**Investment Option**" shall mean the investment vehicles in which a Director's Cash Account shall be deemed invested pursuant to Article 5. The Plan Administrator will determine Investment Options. The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall be permitted to add or remove Investment Options from the Plan menu from time to time, provided that any such additions or removals of investment options shall not be effective with respect to any period prior to the effective date of such change

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.Section 4.2(b)(i) is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

"in the case of a cash dividend, or a dividend of stock of the Company (other than Common Stock) or other property, in each case paid on or after November 1, 2012, additional cash credits will be made to a Director's Cash Account equal to the cash amount of such dividend per share (or the fair market value, on the date of payment, of dividends per share paid in such stock or other property), multiplied by the aggregate number of Stock Units credited to such Director's Stock Unit Account, if applicable, and such credits will be initially allocated to the default Investment Option as determined by the Plan Administrator under Section 5.1."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.Section 5.1 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

**Investment Options.** Each Director shall elect the Investment Options in which Deferral Amounts credited to the Director's Cash Account shall be deemed to be allocated. A Director's cash Deferral Amounts may be allocated in one percent increments among one or more of the Investment Options. If the Director allocates less than 100% of his cash Deferral Amounts pursuant to this Section 5.1, unallocated cash Deferral Amounts shall be deemed to be allocated to the default Investment Option as determined by the Plan Administrator. A Director may change the allocation for subsequent Deferral Amounts to his or her Cash Account at any time in such manner as the Plan Administrator may prescribe.
