“We made considerable progress in our transformation to become a lifetime, trusted health partner in 2022,” said Gail K. Boudreaux, President and CEO. “Through strategic advancements we are making to optimize our health benefits businesses, invest in high growth opportunities, and accelerate capabilities and services, we are delivering on our commitments to our communities and all of our stakeholders. Additionally, we look forward to welcoming Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana to Elevance Health to further this commitment within a 15th Blue state. Last year marked the fifth consecutive year in which we met or exceeded our long-term adjusted earnings per share growth target, and we are well-positioned to do it again in 2023.”
The Company expects GAAP net income to be greater than $29.80 per share in 2023, and adjusted net income to be greater than $32.60 per share.

CONSOLIDATED HIGHLIGHTS
Earnings Per Share: GAAP net income was $3.93 per share in the fourth quarter, including net negative adjustment items of $1.30 per share. Adjusted net income was $5.23* per share. Full year GAAP net income was $24.81 per share, including net negative adjustment items of $4.26 per share. Adjusted net income was $29.07* per share.
*Please refer to the GAAP reconciliation tables.
Membership: Medical membership totaled approximately 47.5 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 2.2 million, or 4.8 percent year-over-year. Government Business membership increased by 1.1 million year-over-year driven primarily by growth in the Medicaid business and organic growth in Medicare Advantage. Commercial & Specialty Business membership increased by 1.1 million year-over-year, driven primarily by strong sales to fee-based employers.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, medical membership increased by 248 thousand driven by organic growth in Medicaid, which we attribute primarily to the suspension of eligibility recertification, as well as the acquisition of Vivida Health, which added 29 thousand Medicaid members.
Operating Revenue: Operating revenue was $39.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $3.6 billion, or 10.1 percent year-over-year. Operating revenue was $155.7 billion for the full year, representing 13.7 percent growth over 2021. The increase in both the quarter and the full year was driven by higher premium revenue due to membership growth in Medicaid, growth in Medicare Advantage, as well as premium rate increases to cover overall cost trends. The increase in operating revenue was further attributable to growth in pharmacy product revenue within CarelonRx driven by growth in consumers served and higher utilization of prescription drugs.
Benefit Expense Ratio: The benefit expense ratio was 89.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of 10 basis points year-over-year. The decrease was driven by the realignment of certain quality improvement costs to match recent regulatory clarifications. Excluding the realignment, our benefit expense ratio would have increased, driven by the non-recurrence of favorable out of period adjustment items in Medicaid in the prior year quarter, partially offset by improved medical underwriting performance in our Commercial & Specialty business. The benefit expense ratio was 87.4 percent for the full year of 2022, a decrease of 10 basis points year-over-year. The decrease was primarily driven by the realignment of certain quality improvement costs. Excluding the realignment, the full year benefit expense ratio would have increased, driven by a shift in business mix toward Medicaid, which carries a higher benefit expense ratio than our commercial and Medicare health plans.
Medical claims reserves established at December 31, 2021 developed in line with the Company’s expectations as of the fourth quarter of 2022.
Days in Claims Payable: Days in Claims Payable was 47.7 days as of December 31, 2022, unchanged from September 30, 2022 and an increase of 2.5 days compared to December 31, 2021.
SG&A Expense Ratio: The SG&A expense ratio was 11.5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of 20 basis points from 11.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021. For the full year of 2022, the SG&A expense ratio was 11.4 percent, a decrease of 20 basis points from 11.6 percent in 2021. The decrease for both the quarter and the full year was primarily driven by operating expense leverage associated with growth in operating revenue and lower business optimization charges taken in 2022 as compared to 2021, partially offset by increased spend to support growth in operations and the realignment of certain quality improvement expenses previously reported in benefit expense in the prior year periods.
Operating Cash Flow: Operating cash flow was a use of $1.5 billion, or (1.6) times net income in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $3.2 billion as compared to the prior year quarter. The year-on-year decrease was driven by the early receipt of premium payments from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid in third quarter of 2022, which were received during the fourth quarter in 2021. For the full year 2022, operating cash flow was $8.4 billion, or 1.4 times net income.
Share Repurchase Program: During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.1 million shares of its common stock for $567 million, at a weighted average price of $497.24. For the full year of 2022, the Company repurchased 4.8 million shares of its common stock for $2.3 billion, at a weighted average price of $478.99. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $1.9 billion of Board-approved share repurchase authorization remaining.
On January 24, 2023, our Audit Committee, pursuant to authorization granted by the Board of Directors, authorized a $5.0 billion increase to the common stock repurchase program. The Company intends to utilize this authorization over a multi-year period, subject to market and industry conditions.
Cash Dividend: During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.28 per share, representing a distribution of cash totaling $305 million.
On January 24, 2023, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors declared a first quarter 2023 dividend to shareholders of $1.48 per share, an increase of 16 percent from the quarterly dividend payment in the fourth quarter. On an annualized basis, the new quarterly dividend equates to $5.92 per share. The first quarter dividend is payable on March 24, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 10, 2023.
Investment Portfolio & Capital Position: During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net losses of $111 million. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded net gains of $211 million. These amounts are excluded from adjusted earnings per share.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s net unrealized loss position in the investment portfolio was $2.3 billion, consisting primarily of fixed maturity securities. As of December 31, 2022, cash and investments at the parent company totaled approximately $1.2 billion.

2. | Operating gain for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 included $39 of charges related to business optimization plans; including $20 for Commercial & Specialty Business; $16 for the Government Business; and $3 for the Other segment. Operating gain for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 included $187 of charges related to business optimization plans; including $106 for Commercial & Specialty Business; $47 for the Government Business; $2 for CarelonRx; and $32 for the Other segment. |
Commercial & Specialty Business: Operating gain in the Commercial & Specialty Business segment totaled $260 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $186 million from $74 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by improved medical underwriting performance in our commercial risk-based business and lower business optimization expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.
Government Business: Operating gain in the Government Business segment was $644 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $104 million from $748 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the non-recurrence of certain favorable out of period rate actions in Medicaid in the prior year quarter partially offset by increased gross profit in our Medicare health plans and lower business optimization expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.
CarelonRx: Operating gain was $475 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $48 million from $427 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by higher prescription volumes associated with growth in integrated medical and standalone pharmacy customers.
Other: The Company reported an operating loss of $11 million in the Other segment for the fourth quarter of 2022, an improvement of $50 million from an operating loss of $61 million in the prior year quarter, driven by growth in Carelon's affiliated and unaffiliated earnings.

GAAP Reconciliation
(Unaudited)
Elevance Health, Inc. has referenced “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Net Income Per Share,” which are non-GAAP measures, in this document. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to be alternatives to any measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition to these non-GAAP measures, references are made to the measures “Operating Revenue” and “Operating Gain.” Each of these measures is provided to further aid investors in understanding and analyzing the company’s core operating results and comparing Elevance Health, Inc.’s financial results. A reconciliation of Operating Revenue to Total Revenue is set forth in the Consolidated Statements of Income herein. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, together with a reconciliation of reportable segments operating gain to income before income tax expense, is reported below. Prior amounts may be grouped differently to conform to current presentation.
