    --  First quarter 2025 adjusted revenues(4,8) increased 9% relative to first

    --  The Cigna Healthcare MCR(5) was 82.2% for first quarter 2025 compared to
        79.9% for first quarter 2024. The increase for the first quarter was

Adjusted income (loss) from operations is a principal financial measure of profitability used by The Cigna Group's management because it presents the underlying results of operations of the Company's businesses and facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue, expenses and shareholders' net income (loss). Adjusted income (loss) from operations is defined as shareholders' net income (loss) (or income (loss) before income taxes less pre-tax income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the segment metric) excluding net investment gains/losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and special items. The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting are also excluded. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of operations due to their nature or size. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is measured on an after-tax basis for consolidated results and on a pre-tax basis for segment results. Consolidated adjusted income (loss) from operations is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, shareholders' net income (loss). See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income (loss).

2. Management is not able to provide a reconciliation of adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income (loss), on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict, without unreasonable effort, certain components thereof including (i) future net investment results and (ii) future special items. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond The Cigna Group's control. As such, any associated estimate and its impact on shareholders' net income and total revenues could vary materially.

The Company's outlook excludes the potential effects of any other business combinations that may occur after the date of this earnings release. The Company's outlook includes the potential effects of expected future share repurchases and anticipated 2025 dividends.

The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternate uses of capital. The share repurchase program may be effected through open market purchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, or privately negotiated transactions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

3. On March 19, 2025, the company completed the sale (the "HCSC transaction") of its Medicare Advantage, Medicare Individual Stand-Alone Prescription Drug Plans, Medicare and Other Supplemental Benefits, and CareAllies businesses to Health Care Services Corporation ("HCSC").

4. Adjusted revenues is used by The Cigna Group's management because it facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue. The Company defines adjusted revenues as total revenues excluding the following adjustments: special items and The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of operations due to their nature or size. We exclude these items from this measure because management believes they are not indicative of past or future underlying performance of the business. Adjusted revenues is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, total revenues. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted revenues to total revenues.

5. Operating ratios are defined as follows:

    --  The Cigna Healthcare medical care ratio ("MCR") represents medical costs
        as a percentage of premiums for all Cigna Healthcare risk products
        provided through guaranteed cost or experience-rated funding
        arrangements. Changes in percentages may be expressed in basis points
        ("bps").
    --  SG&A expense ratio on a GAAP basis for the first quarter 2025 represents
        enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $4,213
        million as a percentage of total revenue of $65.5 billion at a
        consolidated level. SG&A expense ratio on a GAAP basis for the first
        quarter 2024 represents enterprise selling, general and administrative
        expenses of $3,705 million as a percentage of total revenue of $57.3
        billion at a consolidated level.
    --  Adjusted SG&A expense ratio for the first quarter 2025 represents
        enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,799
        million excluding special items of $414 million as a percentage of
        adjusted revenue at a consolidated level. Adjusted SG&A expense ratio
        for the first quarter 2024 represents enterprise selling, general and
        administrative expenses of $3,668 million excluding special items of $37
        million as a percentage of adjusted revenue at a consolidated level.

6. Customer relationships are defined as follows:

    --  Total medical customers includes individuals who meet any one of the
        following criteria: are covered under a medical insurance policy,
        managed care arrangement, or administrative services agreement issued by
        Cigna Healthcare; have access to Cigna Healthcare's provider network for
        covered services under their medical plan; or have medical claims that
        are administered by Cigna Healthcare.
    --  Total customer relationships and total medical customers as of December
        31, 2024, excluding the impact of the HCSC transaction(3), were 179,712
        thousand and 18,055 thousand, respectively.

7. Margin, pre-tax, is calculated by dividing adjusted income (loss) from operations, pre-tax by adjusted revenues for each segment.

8. The Cigna Group owns noncontrolling interests in certain operating joint ventures. As such, the adjusted revenues for the Cigna Healthcare segment only include the Company's share of the joint ventures' earnings reported in Fees and Other Revenues using the equity method of accounting under GAAP.

9. Medical costs payable within the Cigna Healthcare segment are presented net of reinsurance and other recoverables. The gross medical costs payable balance was $4.51 billion as of March 31, 2025, $5.02 billion as of December 31, 2024, and $5.86 billion as of March 31, 2024.

        (1)  Adjusted revenues is defined as total revenues excluding the following adjustments: special items and The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting. These items are excluded because they are not
         indicative of past or future underlying performance of our businesses.



     
     (2) The calculation of weighted average shares includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities for the calculation of Adjusted income from operations per share.


        (3) Includes Net investment gains/losses as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Income, as well as the Company's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting, which are presented within Fees and other revenues in
         our Consolidated Statements of Income.


        (4) Adjusted income (loss) from operations is defined as shareholders' net income (loss) (or income (loss) before income taxes less pre-tax income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the segment metric) excluding the following adjustments: net investment gains/losses, amortization of acquired
         intangible assets and special items. The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting are also excluded.


        (5) For the three months ended March 31, 2024, due to the anti-dilutive effect resulting from the Shareholders' net loss for the period, the impact of potentially dilutive securities has been excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares for the calculation of diluted Shareholders' net loss per share.
         Weighted average shares used to calculate diluted Shareholders' net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were 286,465 thousand. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the calculation of weighted average shares includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities for
         the calculation of diluted Shareholders net income per share.
