Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011, increased 15.2% or $3.7 billion, to $28.3 billion, up from $24.6 billion in the three months ended December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2011, total revenue increased 11.8% or $11.3 billion, to $107.1 billion, compared to $95.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Revenues in the Pharmacy Services segment increased 32.4% to $15.9 billion in the three months ended December 31, 2011. This increase was primarily associated with the addition of a previously-announced, long-term contract with Aetna, Inc., as well as new activity resulting from our acquisition of the Medicare prescription drug business of Universal American Corp. ("UAM Medicare Part D Business") in the second quarter of 2011. Pharmacy network claims processed during the three months ended December 31, 2011 increased 46.0% to 193.0 million, compared to 132.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in pharmacy network claims was primarily due to the Company's recent acquisition of the UAM Medicare Part D Business, the addition of the Aetna contract, and an increase in covered lives in our existing Medicare Part D Business. Mail choice claims processed during the three months ended December 31, 2011 increased approximately 8.1% to 17.8 million compared to 16.5 million in the prior year period. The increase in the mail choice claim volume was primarily driven by the addition of the Aetna contract. For the year ended December 31, 2011, total revenue in the Pharmacy Services segment increased 24.9% to $58.9 billion, compared to $47.1 billion in the year ended December 31, 2010.
Revenues in the Retail Pharmacy segment increased 4.0% to $15.5 billion in the three months ended December 31, 2011. Same store sales increased 2.5% over the prior year period. Pharmacy same store sales rose 3.6% on a standard calendar basis. Calendar day shifts in the fourth quarter of 2011, which had one additional Saturday and one fewer Friday compared with the same period in 2010, negatively impacted pharmacy same store sales by 50 basis points. Additionally, pharmacy same store prescription volumes rose 2.1% when 90-day scripts are counted as one script. When converting 90-day scripts into 3 scripts, our same store prescription volumes increased 4.4% in the quarter. Pharmacy same store sales include a positive impact from Maintenance Choice® of approximately 160 basis points on a net basis (i.e., a positive impact of approximately 190 basis points on a gross basis, net of approximately 30 basis points from the conversion of 30-day prescriptions at retail to 90-day prescriptions under the Maintenance Choice program). Pharmacy same store sales were negatively impacted by approximately 235 basis points due to recent generic introductions. Front store same store sales increased 0.1% in the three months ended December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2011, total revenue in the Retail Pharmacy segment increased 3.9% to $59.6 billion, compared to $57.3 billion in the year ended December 31, 2010. Same store sales increased 2.3% for the year ended December 31, 2011 over the prior year.
For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the generic dispensing rate increased approximately 220 basis points to 75.0% in our Pharmacy Services segment and 210 basis points to 75.9% in our Retail Pharmacy segment, compared to the prior year period.
Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to CVS Caremark
Income from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the three months ended December 31, 2011, increased $79.0 million to $1.1 billion, compared with $1.0 billion during the three months ended December 31, 2010. The increase in income from continuing operations was primarily driven by improved operating profit in both our Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark ("Adjusted EPS") for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $0.89 and $0.79, respectively. Excluding the $0.03 per share tax benefit recognized in the fourth quarter of 2010, Adjusted EPS rose 16.2% in the fourth quarter of 2011. Adjusted EPS excludes $114 million and $108 million of intangible asset amortization related to acquisition activity in the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. GAAP earnings per diluted share from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $0.84 and $0.74, respectively.
Income from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased $66 million, or 1.9%, to $3.5 billion, compared to $3.4 billion in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark, which excludes $452 million and $427 million of intangible asset amortization related to acquisition activity for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, was $2.80 and $2.68, respectively. Excluding the $0.03 per share tax benefit recognized in the fourth quarter of 2010, Adjusted EPS rose 5.9% for the year ended December 31, 2011. GAAP earnings per diluted share from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $2.59, compared to $2.49 in the prior year.
President and Chief Executive Officer, Larry Merlo, said, "2011 was a year of great accomplishment for CVS Caremark. We executed successfully on a number of key initiatives across the Company and reported solid financial results, delivering on our promises. Our retail business continued to post strong top- and bottom-line results, and our PBM enjoyed strong revenue growth, another very successful selling season, and great progress on several important initiatives. These include the development of a number of unique, new integrated offerings as well as the streamlining initiative, which is expected to produce cumulative savings from 2011 through 2015 of more than $1 billion. We generated $4.6 billion in free cash for the year, exceeding our goal, and returned more than $3.5 billion to our shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases."
Mr. Merlo continued, "As we close the chapter on 2011, we are optimistic that we can deliver even better results in 2012. We have the right people, the right assets, and the right plans in place to continue to reinvent pharmacy and benefit from the changing health care landscape. Our retail business continues to execute successfully, while our PBM is poised to return to healthy operating profit growth in 2012. Our substantial cash generation capabilities should enable us to continue to drive shareholder value now and in the years ahead."
Discontinued Operations
On November 1, 2011, the Company completed the sale of its TheraCom, L.L.C. ("TheraCom") subsidiary to AmerisourceBergen Corporation for $250 million, subject to a working capital adjustment. TheraCom is a provider of commercialization support services to the biotech and pharmaceutical industry. The TheraCom business has historically been part of the Company's Pharmacy Services segment. The results of the TheraCom business are presented as discontinued operations and have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. The Company recognized a $53 million pre-tax gain and a $37 million after tax loss on the sale of TheraCom. The after tax loss was caused by the income tax treatment of TheraCom's nondeductible goodwill.
In connection with certain business dispositions completed between 1991 and 1997, the Company retained guarantees on store lease obligations for a number of former subsidiaries, including Linens 'n Things which filed for bankruptcy in 2008. The Company's income (loss) from discontinued operations includes lease-related costs which the Company believes it will likely be required to satisfy pursuant to its Linens 'n Things lease guarantees.
Real Estate Program
During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company opened 24 new retail drugstores and closed one retail drugstore. In addition, the Company relocated five retail drugstores. As of December 31, 2011, the Company operated 7,404 locations, included in which were 7,327 retail drugstores, 30 onsite pharmacies, 31 retail specialty pharmacy stores, 12 specialty mail order pharmacies and four mail order pharmacies in 44 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
Guidance
The Company raised its earnings guidance for the first quarter and full year 2012 to reflect the anticipated benefit to first quarter results of approximately $0.03 per share from the impasse between Walgreens and Express Scripts. The guidance adjustment only reflects the potential estimated benefit if the stalemate continues through the end of the first quarter, and does not contemplate any potential benefit beyond the first quarter. The Company currently expects to deliver Adjusted EPS of $3.18 to $3.28 and GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $2.96 to $3.06 per share in 2012. The Company now expects the Retail Pharmacy segment's operating profit to increase between 8.5% and 10.5%, up from a range of 7% to 9%, while the Pharmacy Services segment's operating profit growth is still expected to increase between 11% and 15%. In light of the Company's expectation for additional working capital improvements, the Company also raised its 2012 free cash flow guidance by $300 million, to a range of $4.6 billion to $4.9 billion. Further, the Company now expects to generate cash flow from operations in 2012 in the range of $6.2 billion to $6.4 billion. These 2012 guidance estimates assume the completion of $3 billion in share repurchases, the amount remaining in the share repurchase program authorized in 2011 by CVS Caremark's board of directors.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share |
|
(Unaudited) |
|
For internal comparisons, management finds it useful to assess year-to-year performance by adjusting diluted earnings per share for amortization, which primarily relates to acquisition activities. |
|
The Company defines adjusted earnings per share as income before income tax provision plus amortization, less adjusted income tax provision, plus net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. |
|

(1) Net revenues of the Pharmacy Services segment include approximately $1.9 billion and $1.6 billion of retail co-payments for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as well as $7.9 billion and $6.6 billion of retail co-payments for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |
|
(2) Intersegment eliminations relate to two types of transactions: (i) Intersegment revenues that occur when Pharmacy Services segment customers use Retail Pharmacy segment stores to purchase covered products. When this occurs, both the Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments record the revenue on a standalone basis, and (ii) Intersegment revenues, gross profit and operating profit that occur when Pharmacy Services segment customers, through the Company's intersegment activities (such as the Maintenance Choice™ program), elect to pick-up their maintenance prescriptions at Retail Pharmacy segment stores instead of receiving them through the mail. When this occurs, both the Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments record the revenue, gross profit and operating profit on a standalone basis. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Maintenance Choice eliminations reflect all discounts available for the purchase of mail order prescription drugs. The following amounts are eliminated in consolidation in connection with the item (ii) intersegment activity: net revenues of $0.7 billion and $0.5 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $2.6 billion and $1.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively; gross profit and operating profit of $69 million and $43 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $186 million and $135 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |

(3) The results of the Pharmacy Services segment for the three months and year ended December 31, 2010 have been revised to reflect the results of TheraCom as discontinued operations. |

EBITDA and EBITDA per Adjusted Claim |
|
(Unaudited) |
|
The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define EBITDA per adjusted claim as EBITDA divided by adjusted pharmacy claims. Adjusted pharmacy claims normalize the claims volume statistic for the difference in average days' supply for mail and retail claims. Adjusted pharmacy claims are calculated by multiplying 90-day claims (the majority of total mail claims) by 3 and adding the 30-day claims. EBITDA can be reconciled to operating profit, which we believe to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. |

Adjusted Earnings Per Share Guidance |
|
(Unaudited) |
|
The following reconciliation of estimated income before income tax provision to estimated adjusted earnings per share contains forward-looking information that is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. The Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company strongly recommends that you become familiar with the specific risks and uncertainties outlined under the Risk Factors section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and under the section entitled "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" in our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For internal comparisons, management finds it useful to assess year-to-year performance by adjusting diluted earnings per share for amortization, which primarily relates to acquisition activities. |

The Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company strongly recommends that you become familiar with the specific risks and uncertainties outlined under the Risk Factors section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and under the section entitled "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" in our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For internal comparisons, management finds it useful to assess year-to-year cash flow performance by adjusting cash provided by operating activities, by capital expenditures and proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions. |
