Humana lowered its earnings per-share outlook for fiscal 2023 as
higher than anticipated medical costs continued to increase through
the end of the fourth quarter.
The health insurance services company expects earnings per-share
of about $20 and adjusted earnings-per share around $26.09,
according to a regulatory filing. It forecast earnings per-share of
at least $26.91 and adjusted earnings per-share of at least $28.25
in September.
Humana previously disclosed that it expected the higher level of
medical utilization during the third quarter in its Medicare
Advantage business to continue for the remainder of the year.
Though it worked to offset the elevated medical costs, the company
said it was unable to offset it entirely.
