Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On April 14, 2005, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release discussing first quarter 2005 results. A copy of the press release is
furnished herewith as Exhibit 99 and incorporated in this Item 2.02 by reference. The press release contains forward−looking statements regarding the Company.

To supplement our consolidated financial results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the press release also discloses the
following non−GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors:

Certain account balances and financial measures have been presented in this earnings release excluding our AARP business. Management believes these
disclosures are meaningful since underwriting gains or losses related to the AARP business are recorded as an increase or decrease to a rate stabilization fund
(RSF) and the effects of changes in balance sheet amounts associated with the AARP program accrue to the overall benefit of the AARP policyholders through
the RSF balance. Although the Company is at risk for underwriting losses to the extent cumulative net losses exceed the balance in the RSF, the Company has
not been required to fund any underwriting deficits to date and management believes the RSF balance is sufficient to cover potential future underwriting or other
risks associated with the contract.

Adjusted operating cash flows is presented in the earnings release to facilitate the comparison of cash flows from operating activities for quarterly periods in
which the Company does not receive three monthly premium payments from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). CMS is contractually
obligated to pay their monthly premium on the first calendar day of the applicable month. If the first calendar day of the month falls on a weekend or a holiday,
CMS pays the Company on the last business day of the preceding calendar month. As such, GAAP operating cash flows may vary depending upon the number of
payments received by the Company from CMS during a particular quarter. Adjusted operating cash flows presents operating cash flows assuming that each
monthly CMS premium payment was received on the first calendar day of the month.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT
OF 1995

UnitedHealth Group and its representatives may from time to time make written and oral forward−looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PSLRA), including statements in this report, in presentations, press releases (including the earnings release attached as
Exhibit 99 to this report and the earnings conference call described in such earnings release), filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to
shareholders and in meetings with analysts and investors. Generally the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and
similar expressions identify forward−looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. These statements may contain information about financial
prospects, economic conditions, trends and unknown certainties. We caution that actual results could differ materially from those that management expects,
depending on the outcome of certain factors. These forward−looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ
materially from the results discussed in the forward−looking statements. Some factors that could cause results to differ materially from the forward−looking
statements include:


      •      increases in health care costs that are higher than we anticipated in establishing our premium rates, including increased consumption of or costs of
             medical services;



      •      heightened competition as a result of new entrants into our market, and consolidation of health care companies and suppliers;



      •      events that may negatively affect our contract with AARP;



      •      increased competition and other uncertainties resulting from changes in Medicare laws;



      •      increases in costs and other liabilities associated with increased litigation, legislative activity and government regulation and review of our industry;



      •      our ability to execute contracts on competitive terms with physicians, hospitals and other service providers;



      •      failure to maintain effective and efficient information systems, which could result in the loss of existing customers, difficulties in attracting new
             customers, difficulties in determining medical costs estimates and appropriate pricing, customer and physician and health care provider disputes,
             regulatory violations, increases in operating costs, or other adverse consequences;



      •      possible impairment of the value of our intangible assets if future results do not adequately support goodwill and intangible assets recorded for
             businesses that we acquire;



      •      costs associated with compliance with restrictions on patient privacy, including system changes, development of new administrative processes, and
             potential noncompliance by our business associates;



      •      misappropriation of our proprietary technology; and
•      potential effects of terrorism, including increased use of health care services, disruption of information and payment systems, and increased health
             care costs.

This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. A further list and description of some of these risks and uncertainties can be found in our reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including our annual reports on Form 10−K and quarterly reports on Form 10−Q. Any or
all forward−looking statements we make may turn out to be wrong. You should not place undue reliance on forward−looking statements, which speak only as of
the date they are made. Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward−looking
statements.

UnitedHealth Group Highlights


     •       First quarter earnings per share of $1.16 increased 32 percent from $0.88 in the first quarter of 2004, and improved 7 cents or 6 percent from the
             fourth quarter of 2004.



     •       First quarter consolidated net earnings increased to $779 million, up $225 million or 41 percent year−over−year and $40 million or 5 percent from
             the fourth quarter of 2004.



     •       Consolidated revenues of $10.9 billion increased $2.7 billion or 34 percent year−over−year, and $376 million or 4 percent from the fourth quarter of
             2004.



     •       Organic customer growth strengthened for UnitedHealth Group businesses in the first quarter. Gains include approximately 600,000 people at
             Uniprise and nearly 100,000 at UnitedHealthcare; more than 1.8 million new individuals served through Specialized Care Services; 45,000 more
             people purchasing Medicare supplement products from Ovations, and growth of 15,000 seniors in its Medicare Advantage programs.



     •       Operating costs declined to 14.9 percent of revenues in the first quarter, representing an improvement of 130 basis points from the first quarter of
             2004 and 20 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2004.



     •       Earnings from operations increased to $1.26 billion in the first quarter, up $380 million or 43 percent over the prior year, and up $68 million or 6

     •       Consolidated first quarter operating margin improved to 11.5 percent from 10.8 percent in the first quarter of 2004 and from 11.3 percent in the
             fourth quarter of 2004, reflecting diversified growth coupled with effective management of medical and operating expenses.
UnitedHealth Group Highlights – Continued


      •     The consolidated medical care ratio, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, decreased 30 basis points sequentially and 60 basis points
            year−over−year to 78.9 percent in the first quarter of 2005.



      •     Medical costs payable, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, increased more than $1.1 billion or 30 percent year−over−year and $264 million
            or 6 percent since December 31, 2004, standing at $4.9 billion at March 31, 2005. Medical costs days payable was 64 days for the quarter, consistent
            with its level at 2004 year end.



      •     During the first quarter, the Company realized prior year favorable development of $190 million in its estimates of medical costs incurred in 2004,
            consistent with the significant growth in the size of the medical cost base and related medical payables, as well as reflecting continuing success in
            managing medical cost trends and facilitating appropriate medical care.



      •     Accounts receivable, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, were $499 million at March 31, 2005, declining $2 million year−over−year and $18
            million from the fourth quarter of 2004 and representing fewer than 5 days sales outstanding.



      •     Cash flows from operations were $1.2 billion for the first quarter, up 33 percent year−over−year. Adjusted to reflect the January 2005 Medicare
            payment that was actually received from CMS in 2004, first quarter cash flows would have been $1.48 billion, up 36 percent year−over−year on a
            comparable basis.



      •     The Company repurchased 13.2 million shares during the first quarter of 2005, representing 2 percent of the shares outstanding at December 31,
            2004.



      •     First quarter 2005 annualized return on equity was 29.3 percent.


Closing Comment

“Our focus on the imperatives of affordability, access, quality and usability — applied broadly within the heath care system — has positioned us for sustained
future performance,” Dr. McGuire stated. “We are confident that our on−going investments in technology, tools for data analysis, and the organization of health
care resources, coupled with evolving partnerships with large employers, health plans and intermediaries will improve the value of services we deliver and help
us expand our market share.

“Looking specifically to 2005 financial performance,” Dr. McGuire concluded, “our strong first quarter results and improving business momentum are cause for
a strengthened forward outlook. We anticipate a year−over−year advance of more than $1.1 billion in full year 2005 earnings from operations, and now foresee
growth in earnings per share of 23 percent to 24 percent in 2005, with earnings in the range of $4.85 to $4.90 per share.”

Key Developments


      •       Ingenix revenues increased $26 million, or 19 percent year−over−year, to $166 million in the first quarter of 2005. This gain reflects strong growth
              performance and provides the most meaningful measure of Ingenix results, due to the markedly seasonal sales characteristics of some key product
              lines.



      •       A diversified group of U.S., European and Japanese life sciences companies executed clinical research service agreements in the first quarter,
              including 12 contracts with total values of at least $1 million each.



      •       Ingenix secured significant orders in the first quarter from a broad variety of payers and providers for software and database products related to
              claims data, editing and management.



      •       The Ingenix revenue backlog grew 17 percent on a year−over−year basis and currently represents approximately 80 percent of its 2005 revenue
              expectation.



      •       Ingenix first quarter operating earnings increased $5 million or 26 percent year−over−year to $24 million, and the operating margin increased to
              14.5 percent, up 90 basis points from first quarter 2004. The results reflect the combination of strong contribution margins on software system sales
              and focused operating efficiencies across its business lines.

  • 4. Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition On April 14, 2005, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release discussing first quarter 2005 results. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99 and incorporated in this Item 2.02 by reference. The press release contains forward−looking statements regarding the Company. To supplement our consolidated financial results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the press release also discloses the following non−GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors: Certain account balances and financial measures have been presented in this earnings release excluding our AARP business. Management believes these disclosures are meaningful since underwriting gains or losses related to the AARP business are recorded as an increase or decrease to a rate stabilization fund (RSF) and the effects of changes in balance sheet amounts associated with the AARP program accrue to the overall benefit of the AARP policyholders through the RSF balance. Although the Company is at risk for underwriting losses to the extent cumulative net losses exceed the balance in the RSF, the Company has not been required to fund any underwriting deficits to date and management believes the RSF balance is sufficient to cover potential future underwriting or other risks associated with the contract. Adjusted operating cash flows is presented in the earnings release to facilitate the comparison of cash flows from operating activities for quarterly periods in which the Company does not receive three monthly premium payments from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). CMS is contractually obligated to pay their monthly premium on the first calendar day of the applicable month. If the first calendar day of the month falls on a weekend or a holiday, CMS pays the Company on the last business day of the preceding calendar month. As such, GAAP operating cash flows may vary depending upon the number of payments received by the Company from CMS during a particular quarter. Adjusted operating cash flows presents operating cash flows assuming that each monthly CMS premium payment was received on the first calendar day of the month. UNITEDHEALTH GROUP RECONCILIATION OF NON−GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (in millions) (unaudited) ADJUSTED CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 2004 GAAP Cash Flows From Operating Activities $ 1,206 $ 910 January CMS Premium Payment Received in December 275 175 Adjusted Cash Flows From Operating Activities $ 1,481 $ 1,085
  • 5. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 UnitedHealth Group and its representatives may from time to time make written and oral forward−looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PSLRA), including statements in this report, in presentations, press releases (including the earnings release attached as Exhibit 99 to this report and the earnings conference call described in such earnings release), filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to shareholders and in meetings with analysts and investors. Generally the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward−looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. These statements may contain information about financial prospects, economic conditions, trends and unknown certainties. We caution that actual results could differ materially from those that management expects, depending on the outcome of certain factors. These forward−looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward−looking statements. Some factors that could cause results to differ materially from the forward−looking statements include: • increases in health care costs that are higher than we anticipated in establishing our premium rates, including increased consumption of or costs of medical services; • heightened competition as a result of new entrants into our market, and consolidation of health care companies and suppliers; • events that may negatively affect our contract with AARP; • increased competition and other uncertainties resulting from changes in Medicare laws; • increases in costs and other liabilities associated with increased litigation, legislative activity and government regulation and review of our industry; • our ability to execute contracts on competitive terms with physicians, hospitals and other service providers; • failure to maintain effective and efficient information systems, which could result in the loss of existing customers, difficulties in attracting new customers, difficulties in determining medical costs estimates and appropriate pricing, customer and physician and health care provider disputes, regulatory violations, increases in operating costs, or other adverse consequences; • possible impairment of the value of our intangible assets if future results do not adequately support goodwill and intangible assets recorded for businesses that we acquire; • costs associated with compliance with restrictions on patient privacy, including system changes, development of new administrative processes, and potential noncompliance by our business associates; • misappropriation of our proprietary technology; and
  • 6. potential effects of terrorism, including increased use of health care services, disruption of information and payment systems, and increased health care costs. This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. A further list and description of some of these risks and uncertainties can be found in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including our annual reports on Form 10−K and quarterly reports on Form 10−Q. Any or all forward−looking statements we make may turn out to be wrong. You should not place undue reliance on forward−looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward−looking statements.
  • 7. Signatures Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

  • 8. EXHIBITS Number Description 99 Press Release, dated April 14, 2005, issued by UnitedHealth Group
  • 9. Exhibit 99 NEWS RELEASE Contacts: John S. Penshorn Senior Vice President 952−936−7214 Patrick J. Erlandson Chief Financial Officer 952−936−5901 (For Immediate Release) UNITEDHEALTH GROUP REPORTS RECORD FIRST QUARTER NET EARNINGS OF $1.16 PER SHARE • Revenues for First Quarter up 34% to $10.9 Billion • Strong Growth Achieved Across Multiple Businesses • Operating Margin Expanded to 11.5% • Operating Cash Flows of $1.2 Billion, Up 33% • Earnings Per Share Increased 32% MINNEAPOLIS (April 14, 2005) – UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) achieved record results in the first quarter of 2005, reported Chairman and CEO William W. McGuire, M.D. First quarter results were driven by strong and diverse growth and consistent operating performance across the spectrum of UnitedHealth Group businesses, with every reporting segment producing both year−over−year gains in earnings from operations and expanded operating margins.
  • 10. Quarterly Financial Performance Three Months Ended December 31, March 31, March 31, 2004 2004 2005 Revenues $10.89 billion $10.51 billion $8.14 billion Earnings From Operations $ 1.26 billion $ 1.19 billion $876 million Operating Margin 11.5% 11.3% 10.8% UnitedHealth Group Highlights • First quarter earnings per share of $1.16 increased 32 percent from $0.88 in the first quarter of 2004, and improved 7 cents or 6 percent from the fourth quarter of 2004. • First quarter consolidated net earnings increased to $779 million, up $225 million or 41 percent year−over−year and $40 million or 5 percent from the fourth quarter of 2004. • Consolidated revenues of $10.9 billion increased $2.7 billion or 34 percent year−over−year, and $376 million or 4 percent from the fourth quarter of 2004. • Organic customer growth strengthened for UnitedHealth Group businesses in the first quarter. Gains include approximately 600,000 people at Uniprise and nearly 100,000 at UnitedHealthcare; more than 1.8 million new individuals served through Specialized Care Services; 45,000 more people purchasing Medicare supplement products from Ovations, and growth of 15,000 seniors in its Medicare Advantage programs. • Operating costs declined to 14.9 percent of revenues in the first quarter, representing an improvement of 130 basis points from the first quarter of 2004 and 20 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2004. • Earnings from operations increased to $1.26 billion in the first quarter, up $380 million or 43 percent over the prior year, and up $68 million or 6 percent sequentially. • Consolidated first quarter operating margin improved to 11.5 percent from 10.8 percent in the first quarter of 2004 and from 11.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2004, reflecting diversified growth coupled with effective management of medical and operating expenses.
  • 11. UnitedHealth Group Highlights – Continued • The consolidated medical care ratio, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, decreased 30 basis points sequentially and 60 basis points year−over−year to 78.9 percent in the first quarter of 2005. • Medical costs payable, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, increased more than $1.1 billion or 30 percent year−over−year and $264 million or 6 percent since December 31, 2004, standing at $4.9 billion at March 31, 2005. Medical costs days payable was 64 days for the quarter, consistent with its level at 2004 year end. • During the first quarter, the Company realized prior year favorable development of $190 million in its estimates of medical costs incurred in 2004, consistent with the significant growth in the size of the medical cost base and related medical payables, as well as reflecting continuing success in managing medical cost trends and facilitating appropriate medical care. • Accounts receivable, excluding the AARP division of Ovations, were $499 million at March 31, 2005, declining $2 million year−over−year and $18 million from the fourth quarter of 2004 and representing fewer than 5 days sales outstanding. • Cash flows from operations were $1.2 billion for the first quarter, up 33 percent year−over−year. Adjusted to reflect the January 2005 Medicare payment that was actually received from CMS in 2004, first quarter cash flows would have been $1.48 billion, up 36 percent year−over−year on a comparable basis. • The Company repurchased 13.2 million shares during the first quarter of 2005, representing 2 percent of the shares outstanding at December 31, 2004. • First quarter 2005 annualized return on equity was 29.3 percent. Closing Comment “Our focus on the imperatives of affordability, access, quality and usability — applied broadly within the heath care system — has positioned us for sustained future performance,” Dr. McGuire stated. “We are confident that our on−going investments in technology, tools for data analysis, and the organization of health care resources, coupled with evolving partnerships with large employers, health plans and intermediaries will improve the value of services we deliver and help us expand our market share. “Looking specifically to 2005 financial performance,” Dr. McGuire concluded, “our strong first quarter results and improving business momentum are cause for a strengthened forward outlook. We anticipate a year−over−year advance of more than $1.1 billion in full year 2005 earnings from operations, and now foresee growth in earnings per share of 23 percent to 24 percent in 2005, with earnings in the range of $4.85 to $4.90 per share.”
  • 12. Business Description – Health Care Services The Health Care Services segment consists of the UnitedHealthcare, AmeriChoice and Ovations business units. UnitedHealthcare coordinates network−based health and well−being services on behalf of multistate mid−sized and local employers and for consumers. AmeriChoice facilitates and manages health care services for state−sponsored Medicaid programs and their beneficiaries. Ovations delivers health and well−being services to Americans over the age of 50. Quarterly Financial Performance Three Months Ended March 31, December 31, March 31, 2005 2004 2004 Revenues $9.63 billion $9.32 billion $7.05 billion Earnings From Operations $910 million $834 million $577 million Operating Margin 9.5% 8.9% 8.2% Key Developments for Health Care Services • Revenues for Health Care Services grew $2.6 billion or 37 percent year−over−year and $305 million or 3 percent sequentially to $9.6 billion in the first quarter of 2005. • First quarter Health Care Services operating earnings of $910 million increased $333 million or 58 percent year−over−year and $76 million or 9 percent sequentially. • First quarter operating margin of 9.5 percent expanded 130 basis points year−over−year and 60 basis points sequentially.
  • 13.

These employers will offer UnitedHealth Group products to their non−insured workers, including part−time, contract and other special status employees. The HRPA estimates these employers represent 3 million people who will be eligible for the new benefit programs. • Uniprise operating earnings of $189 million grew $22 million or 13 percent year−over−year and $20 million or 12 percent over the fourth quarter of 2004.
