Fourth quarter GAAP diluted EPS of $2.30 increased from $1.30 in the prior year. Adjusted EPS of $1.09 decreased from $1.19 in the prior year, primarily due to a decline in adjusted operating income in the Health Care Benefits segment, reflecting changes in the seasonality of the Medicare Part D program due to the impact of the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”).

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year:
•Total revenues increased 8.2% in the three months ended December 31, 2025 and increased 7.8% in the year ended December 31, 2025 driven by growth across all operating segments.
•Operating income decreased 10.8% in the three months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to a decrease in adjusted operating income and a decline in net realized capital gains compared to the prior year.
•Operating income decreased 45.3% for the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to a $5.7 billion goodwill impairment charge related to the Health Care Delivery reporting unit and approximately $1.2 billion of legacy litigation charges, both recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in adjusted operating income and the absence of approximately $1.2 billion of restructuring charges recorded in the prior year.
•Adjusted operating income decreased 4.8% in the three months ended December 31, 2025 and increased 20.6% in the year ended December 31, 2025. See pages 3 through 5 for a discussion of the adjusted operating income performance of the Company’s segments.
•Interest expense increased $29 million, or 3.8%, and $161 million, or 5.4%, respectively, primarily as a result of long-term debt issuances in December 2024 and August 2025.
•The Company recorded an income tax benefit at an effective income tax rate of (115.9)% in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to income tax expense at an effective income tax rate of 23.7% in the prior year. The change was due to a worthless stock deduction associated with a subsidiary that filed for bankruptcy in 2025.
•The effective income tax rate for the full year decreased to 19.1% compared to 25.4% in the prior year due to the worthless stock deduction described above, partially offset by the impact of the goodwill impairment charge and the legacy litigation charges recorded during 2025, both of which were not deductible for income tax purposes.

•Total revenues increased 10.1% and 9.7% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year primarily driven by increases in the Government business, largely due to the impact of the IRA on the Medicare Part D program.
•Adjusted operating loss increased $237 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily driven by changes in the seasonality of the Medicare Part D program due to the impact of the IRA and the unfavorable year-over-year impact of premium deficiency reserves, partially offset by improved underlying performance in the Government business.
•Adjusted operating income increased $2.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily driven by improved underlying performance in the Government business and higher favorable prior year development.
•The MBR of 94.8% in the three months ended December 31, 2025 remained consistent with the prior year as improved underlying performance in the Government business was offset by changes in the seasonality of the Medicare Part D program due to the impact of the IRA.
•The MBR decreased to 91.2% in the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 92.5% in the prior year primarily driven by improved underlying performance in the Government business and higher favorable prior year development.
•Medical membership as of December 31, 2025 of 26.6 million decreased 112,000 members compared with September 30, 2025 reflecting declines in the individual exchange product line, partially offset by an increase in Commercial ASC membership. Medical membership as of December 31, 2025 decreased 504,000 members compared with December 31, 2024, reflecting declines in the individual exchange and Government product lines, partially offset by an increase in Commercial ASC membership.
•Prior years’ health care costs payable estimates developed favorably by $2.0 billion during the year ended December 31, 2025. This development is reported on a basis consistent with the prior years’ development reported in the health care costs payable table in the Company’s annual audited financial statements and does not directly correspond to an increase in 2025 operating results.
•Days claims payable were 38.9 days as of December 31, 2025, a decrease of 3.6 days compared to September 30, 2025.

•Total revenues increased 9.0% and 9.7% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year primarily driven by pharmacy drug mix and brand inflation, partially offset by continued pharmacy client price improvements.
•Adjusted operating income increased 9.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily driven by improved purchasing economics, partially offset by continued pharmacy client price improvements.
•Adjusted operating income decreased 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily driven by continued pharmacy client price improvements and the impact of a higher medical benefit ratio in the Company’s health care delivery business, partially offset by improved purchasing economics and pharmacy drug mix.
•Pharmacy claims processed decreased 1.5% and 0.9% on a 30-day equivalent basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year.
See the supplemental information on page 19 for additional information regarding the performance of the Health Services segment.

•Adjusted operating income increased 8.7% and 4.6% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year primarily driven by increased prescription volume, including incremental volume resulting from the Company’s Rite Aid prescription file acquisitions, as well as favorable drug mix, partially offset by continued pharmacy reimbursement pressure and increased investments in the segment’s colleagues and capabilities.
•Prescriptions filled increased 6.3% and 5.4% on a 30-day equivalent basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year primarily driven by increased utilization and incremental volume resulting from the Company’s Rite Aid prescription file acquisitions.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to analyze underlying business performance and trends. The Company believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the Company’s and investors’ ability to compare the Company’s past financial performance with its current and expected future performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release and which may be referred to on the conference call discussing the Company’s fourth quarter and full-year 2025 financial results, are provided as supplemental information to the financial measures presented in this press release and discussed on the conference call that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s definitions of its non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Non-GAAP financial measures such as consolidated adjusted operating income, adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”) and adjusted income attributable to CVS Health exclude from the relevant GAAP metrics, as applicable: amortization of intangible assets, net realized capital gains or losses and other items, if any, that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance.
For the periods covered in this press release, the following items are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures described above, as applicable, because the Company believes they neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance:
•The Company’s acquisition activities have resulted in the recognition of intangible assets as required under the acquisition method of accounting which consist primarily of trademarks, customer contracts/relationships, covenants not to compete, technology, provider networks and value of business acquired. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are tested for impairment when events indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The amortization of intangible assets is reflected in operating expenses within each segment. Although intangible assets contribute to the Company’s revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the underwriting of the Company’s insurance products, the services performed for the Company’s customers or the sale of the Company’s products or services. Additionally, intangible asset amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of the Company’s acquisition activity. Accordingly, the Company believes excluding the amortization of intangible assets enhances the Company’s and investors’ ability to compare the Company’s past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. Intangible asset amortization excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure represents the entire amount recorded within the Company’s GAAP financial statements, and the revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure. Intangible asset amortization is excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure because the amortization, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised.
•The Company’s net realized capital gains and losses arise from various types of transactions, primarily in the course of managing a portfolio of assets that support the payment of insurance liabilities. Net realized capital gains and losses are reflected in net investment income (loss) within each segment. These capital gains and losses are the result of investment decisions, market conditions and other economic developments that are unrelated to the performance of the Company’s business, and the amount and timing of these capital gains and losses do not directly relate to the underwriting of the Company’s insurance products, the services performed for the Company’s customers or the sale of the Company’s products or services. Accordingly, the Company believes excluding net realized capital gains and losses enhances the Company’s and investors’ ability to compare the Company’s past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends.
•During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the acquisition-related integration costs relate to the acquisitions of Signify Health, Inc. and Oak Street Health, Inc. The acquisition-related integration costs are reflected in operating expenses within the Corporate/Other segment.
11
•During the year ended December 31, 2025, the goodwill impairment charge relates to the Health Care Delivery reporting unit within the Health Services segment.
•During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Health Care Delivery clinic closure charge primarily relates to the write down of long-lived assets in connection with the planned closure of certain existing Oak Street Health clinics in 2026, as well as associated severance and employee-related costs expected to be incurred. The Health Care Delivery clinic closure charge is reflected in operating expenses within the Health Services segment.
•During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the opioid litigation charges relate to changes in the Company’s accrual related to ongoing opioid litigation matters.
•During the year ended December 31, 2025 and the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, the office real estate optimization charges primarily relate to the abandonment of leased real estate and the related right-of-use assets and property and equipment in connection with the Company’s evaluation of corporate office real estate space in response to its ongoing flexible work arrangement. The office real estate optimization charges are reflected in operating expenses within each segment.
•During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded legacy litigation charges related to two court decisions associated with its past business practices.
In April 2025, a jury found Omnicare, LLC (“Omnicare”) and CVS Health Corporation liable in connection with alleged violations of the federal False Claims Act related to dispensing practices by Omnicare from 2010, prior to its acquisition by the Company in 2015, through 2018. Damages were found only with respect to Omnicare. Accordingly, the Company recorded a litigation charge of $387 million during the first quarter of 2025. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a charge of $542 million, reflecting penalties assessed under the False Claims Act. These litigation charges are reflected in operating expenses within the Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segment.
In June 2025, a court found certain subsidiaries of CVS Health Corporation liable for damages in connection with a complaint filed in February 2014, in which the government declined to intervene, related to PBM direct and indirect remuneration reporting practices for two clients from 2010 through 2016, which the Company has since modified. In connection with this court decision, the Company recorded a litigation charge of $291 million during the second quarter of 2025. This litigation charge is reflected in operating expenses within the Health Services segment.
•During the year ended December 31, 2025, the loss on the wind down and sale of Accountable Care assets represents the pre-tax loss on the divestiture of the Company’s Medicare Shared Savings Program (“MSSP”) operations, which the Company sold in March 2025, as well as costs incurred in connection with the process of winding down the Company’s Accountable Care Organization Realizing Equity, Access and Community Health (“ACO REACH”) operations. The loss on Accountable Care assets is reflected in operating expenses within the Health Services segment.
•During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the restructuring charges are primarily comprised of a stock-based compensation charge. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the restructuring charges also include a store impairment charge, corporate workforce optimization costs, including severance and employee-related costs, and other asset impairment and related charges associated with the discontinuation of certain non-core assets. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company finalized an enterprise-wide restructuring plan intended to streamline and simplify the organization, improve efficiency and reduce costs. In connection with this restructuring plan, the Company completed a strategic review of its retail business and determined that it planned to close additional retail stores in 2025, and, accordingly, it recorded a store impairment charge to write down the associated lease right-of-use assets and property and equipment. In addition, during the third quarter of 2024, the Company also conducted a review of its various strategic assets and determined that it would discontinue the use of certain non-core assets, at which time impairment losses were recorded to write down the carrying value of these assets to the Company’s best estimate of their fair value. The restructuring charges associated with the store impairments are reflected within the Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segment, other asset impairments and related charges are reflected within the Corporate/Other and Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segments and corporate workforce optimization costs, including severance and employee-related costs, as well as the stock-based compensation charge, are reflected within the Corporate/Other segment.
12
•During the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, the gain on early extinguishment of debt relates to the Company’s repayment of approximately $2.6 billion of its outstanding senior notes in December 2024, pursuant to its tender offer for such senior notes.
•During the year ended December 31, 2025, the gain on deconsolidation of subsidiary relates to Omnicare, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of CVS Health Corporation, and certain of its subsidiary entities (collectively, the “Omnicare Entities”). In September 2025, the Omnicare Entities voluntarily initiated Chapter 11 proceedings under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, at which time the Company determined that it no longer retained control of the Omnicare Entities and deconsolidated the subsidiaries.
•Following the voluntarily initiation of Chapter 11 proceedings described above, it was determined that the Company’s investment in a subsidiary became worthless in 2025. Consequently, the Company recognized a related net tax benefit of approximately $1.9 billion in the aggregate during the three months and year ended December 31, 2025.
•The corresponding tax benefit or expense related to the items excluded from adjusted income attributable to CVS Health and Adjusted EPS above. The nature of each non-GAAP adjustment is evaluated to determine whether a discrete adjustment should be made to the adjusted income tax provision.

Supplemental Information
(Unaudited)
The Company’s segments maintain separate financial information, and the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) evaluates the segments’ operating results on a regular basis in deciding how to allocate resources among the segments and in assessing segment performance. The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments based on adjusted operating income. Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income (loss) (GAAP measure) excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets, net realized capital gains or losses and other items, if any, that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance as further described in endnote (1). The CODM uses adjusted operating income as its principal measure of segment performance as it enhances the CODM’s ability to compare past financial performance with current performance and analyze underlying business performance and trends.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share Guidance
(Unaudited)
The following reconciliations of projected net income attributable to CVS Health to projected adjusted income attributable to CVS Health and calculations of projected GAAP diluted EPS and projected Adjusted EPS contain forward-looking information. All forward-looking information involves risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking information for a number of reasons as described in our SEC filings, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section and under the heading “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” earlier in this press release and endnote (2) later in this press release for more information on how we calculate Adjusted EPS.

(1) The Company defines adjusted operating income as operating income (GAAP measure) excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets, net realized capital gains or losses and other items, if any, that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance, such as acquisition-related integration costs, goodwill impairment charges, Health Care Delivery clinic closure charges, opioid litigation charges, office real estate optimization charges, certain legacy litigation charges, losses on Accountable Care assets and restructuring charges. The CODM uses adjusted operating income as its principal measure of segment performance as it enhances the CODM’s ability to compare past financial performance with current performance and analyze underlying business performance and trends. The consolidated measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, consolidated operating income. See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” earlier in this press release for additional information regarding the items excluded from consolidated operating income in determining consolidated adjusted operating income.
(2) GAAP diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EPS, respectively, are calculated by dividing net income attributable to CVS Health and adjusted income attributable to CVS Health by the Company’s weighted average diluted shares outstanding. The Company defines adjusted income attributable to CVS Health as net income attributable to CVS Health (GAAP measure) excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets, net realized capital gains or losses and other items, if any, that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance, such as acquisition-related integration costs, goodwill impairment charges, Health Care Delivery clinic closure charges, opioid litigation charges, office real estate optimization charges, certain legacy litigation charges, losses on Accountable Care assets, restructuring charges, gains on early extinguishment of debt, the gain on deconsolidation of subsidiary, the tax benefit from a worthless stock deduction, as well as the corresponding income tax benefit or expense related to the items excluded from adjusted income attributable to CVS Health. See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” earlier in this press release for additional information regarding the items excluded from net income attributable to CVS Health in determining adjusted income attributable to CVS Health.
(3) Medical benefit ratio is calculated by dividing the Health Care Benefits segment’s health care costs by premium revenues and represents the percentage of premium revenues spent on medical benefits for the segment’s insured members. Management uses MBR to assess the underlying business performance and underwriting of its insurance products, understand variances between actual results and expected results and identify trends in period-over-period results. MBR provides management and investors with information useful in assessing the operating results of the Health Care Benefits segment’s insured products.
(4) Medical membership represents the number of members covered by the Health Care Benefits segment’s insured and ASC medical products and related services at a specified point in time. Management uses this metric to understand variances between actual medical membership and expected amounts as well as trends in period-over-period results. This metric provides management and investors with information useful in understanding the impact of medical membership on the Health Care Benefits segment’s total revenues and operating results.
(5) Pharmacy claims processed represents the number of prescription claims processed through the Company’s pharmacy benefits manager and dispensed by either its retail network pharmacies or the Company’s mail and specialty pharmacies. Prescriptions filled represents the number of prescriptions dispensed through the Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segment’s retail pharmacies and infusion services operations, as well as through the Omnicare long-term care pharmacies prior to their deconsolidation in September 2025. Management uses these metrics to understand variances between actual claims processed and prescriptions dispensed, respectively, and expected amounts as well as trends in period-over-period results. These metrics provide management and investors with information useful in understanding the impact of pharmacy claim volume and prescription volume, respectively, on segment total revenues and operating results.
(6) Includes an adjustment to convert 90-day prescriptions to the equivalent of three 30-day prescriptions. This adjustment reflects the fact that these prescriptions include approximately three times the amount of product days supplied compared to a normal prescription.
24
(7) Days claims payable is calculated by dividing the Health Care Benefits segment’s health care costs payable at the end of each quarter by its average health care costs per day during such quarter. Management and investors use this metric as an indicator of the adequacy of the Health Care Benefits segment’s health care costs payable liability at the end of each quarter and as an indicator of changes in such adequacy over time.
(8) Gross profit is calculated as the segment’s total revenues less its cost of products sold, and, for the Health Services segment, health care costs. Gross margin is calculated by dividing the segment’s gross profit by its total revenues and represents the percentage of total revenues that remains after incurring direct costs associated with the segment’s products sold and services provided. Gross margin provides investors with information that may be useful in assessing the operating results of the Company’s Health Services and Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segments.
(9) Health Services pharmacy network revenues relate to claims filled at retail and specialty retail pharmacies, including pharmacies owned by the Company, as well as activity associated with Maintenance Choice®, which permits eligible client plan members to fill their maintenance prescriptions through mail order delivery or at a CVS pharmacy retail store for the same price as mail order.
(10) Health Services mail and specialty revenues relate to specialty mail claims inclusive of Specialty Connect® claims picked up at a retail pharmacy, as well as mail order and specialty claims fulfilled by the Pharmacy & Consumer Wellness segment.
(11) Same store sales and prescription volume represent the change in revenues and prescriptions filled in the Company’s retail pharmacy stores that have been operating for greater than one year and digital sales initiated online or through mobile applications and fulfilled through the Company’s distribution centers, expressed as a percentage that indicates the increase or decrease relative to the comparable prior period. Same store metrics exclude revenues and prescriptions from infusion services operations and long-term care pharmacies. Management uses these metrics to evaluate the performance of existing stores on a comparable basis and to inform future decisions regarding existing stores and new locations. Same-store metrics provide management and investors with information useful in understanding the portion of current revenues and prescriptions resulting from organic growth in existing locations versus the portion resulting from opening new stores.
