NOTE A—General

Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Magellan Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Magellan"), include the accounts of Magellan, its majority owned subsidiaries, and all variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which Magellan is the primary beneficiary (together with Magellan, the "Company"). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

        The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements filed on this Form 10-Q. Other than as described in Note G—"Subsequent Events", the Company did not have any material recognizable events during the period.

        These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the notes thereto, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014.

Business Overview

        The Company is engaged in the healthcare management business, and is focused on meeting needs in areas of healthcare that are fast growing, highly complex and high cost, with an emphasis on special population management. The Company provides services to health plans, managed care organizations ("MCOs"), insurance companies, employers, labor unions, various military and governmental agencies, third party administrators, consultants and brokers. The Company's business is divided into the following five segments, based on the services it provides and/or the customers that it serves, as described below.

Managed Healthcare

        Two of the Company's segments are in the managed healthcare business. This line of business reflects the Company's: (i) management of behavioral healthcare services, and (ii) the integrated management of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical healthcare for special populations, delivered through Magellan Complete Care ("MCC"). The Company's coordination and management of physical and behavioral healthcare includes services provided through its comprehensive network of medical and behavioral health professionals, clinics, hospitals and ancillary service providers. This network of credentialed and privileged providers is integrated with clinical and quality improvement programs to enhance the healthcare experience for individuals in need of care, while at the same time managing the cost of these services for our customers. The treatment services provided through the Company's provider network include outpatient programs, intermediate care programs, inpatient treatment and

crisis intervention services. The Company generally does not directly provide or own any provider of treatment services, although it does employ licensed behavioral health counselors to deliver non-medical counseling under certain government contracts.

        The Company's integrated management of physical and behavioral healthcare includes its full service health plans which provide for the holistic management of special populations. These special populations include individuals with serious mental illness, dual eligibles, those eligible for long term care and other populations with unique and often complex healthcare needs.

        The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee, (ii) administrative services only ("ASO") products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services, and (iii) employee assistance programs ("EAPs") where the Company provides short-term outpatient behavioral counseling services.

        The managed healthcare business is managed based on the services provided and/or the customers served, through the following two segments:

        Commercial.    The Managed Healthcare Commercial segment ("Commercial") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP services provided under contracts with health plans, insurance companies and MCOs for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers, including corporations, governmental agencies, military and labor unions. Commercial's contracts encompass risk-based, ASO and EAP arrangements.

        Public Sector.    The Managed Healthcare Public Sector segment ("Public Sector") generally reflects: (i) the management of behavioral health services provided to recipients under Medicaid and other state sponsored programs under contracts with state and local governmental agencies, and (ii) the integrated management of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical care for special populations covered under Medicaid and other government sponsored programs. Public Sector contracts encompass either risk-based or ASO arrangements.

Specialty Solutions

        The Specialty Solutions segment ("Specialty Solutions") generally reflects the management of the delivery of diagnostic imaging (radiology benefits management or "RBM") and a variety of other specialty areas such as radiation oncology, obstetrical ultrasound, cardiology and musculoskeletal management to ensure that such services are clinically appropriate and cost effective. The Company's Specialty Solutions services are currently provided under contracts with health plans and insurance companies for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members. The Company also contracts with state and local governmental agencies for the provision of such services to Medicaid recipients. The Company offers its Specialty Solutions services through risk-based contracts, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing services, and through ASO contracts, where the Company provides services such as utilization review and claims administration, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the services.

Pharmacy Management

        The Pharmacy Management segment ("Pharmacy Management") comprises products and solutions that provide clinical and financial management of drugs paid under medical and pharmacy benefit programs. Pharmacy Management's services include (i) traditional pharmacy benefit management ("PBM") services; (ii) pharmacy benefit administration ("PBA") for state Medicaid and other government sponsored programs; (iii) specialty pharmaceutical dispensing operations, contracting and formulary optimization programs; (iv) medical pharmacy management programs; and (v) programs for the integrated management of drugs that treat complex conditions, regardless of site of service, method of delivery, or benefit reimbursement. In addition, the Company had a subcontract arrangement to provide PBM services on a risk basis for one of Public Sector's customers, which terminated on March 31, 2014.

        The Company's Pharmacy Management programs are provided under contracts with health plans, employers, Medicaid MCOs, state Medicaid programs, and other government agencies, and encompass risk-based and fee-for-service ("FFS") arrangements.

Corporate

        This segment of the Company is comprised primarily of operational support functions such as sales and marketing and information technology, as well as corporate support functions such as executive, finance, human resources and legal.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In July 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-06, "Other Expenses (Topic 720): Fees Paid to the Federal Government by Health Insurers (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)" ("ASU 2011-06"), which addresses how fees mandated by the Patient Protection and the Affordable Care Act ("ACA"), as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the "Health Reform Law"), should be recognized and classified in the income statements of health insurers. The Health Reform Law imposes a mandatory annual fee on health insurers for each calendar year beginning on or after January 1, 2014. ASU 2011-06 stipulates that the liability incurred for that fee be amortized to expense over the calendar year in which it is payable. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 31, 2013, when the fee initially becomes effective. The Company is currently pursuing rate adjustments to cover the direct costs of these fees and the impact from non-deductibility of such fees for federal and state income tax purposes. To the extent the Company has a state public sector customer that does not renew, there may be some impact due to taxes paid where the timing and amount of recoupment of these additional costs is uncertain. In the event the Company is unable to obtain rate adjustments to cover the financial impact of the annual fee, the fee may have a material impact on the Company. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has obtained signed commitments from four of its customers to recover the economic impact of the ACA fees. For 2014, the projected ACA fee is currently estimated to be $21.3 million and is included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Of this amount $5.6 million and $10.7 million was expensed in the

three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, which is included in direct service costs and other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income. The Company has recorded revenues of $10.9 million and $14.1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, associated with the accrual for the reimbursement of the economic impact of the ACA fees from its customers. Of the revenues recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2014, $4.8 million are associated with the three months ended March 31, 2014, due to signed commitments obtained in the three months ended June 30, 2014.

        In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Carryforward Exists" ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and were adopted by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The effect of the guidance is immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

        In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASU 2014-09), which is a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operation, financial position, and cash flows.

        In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period" ("ASU 2014-12), which revises the accounting treatment for stock compensation tied to performance targets. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance is not expected to materially impact the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Use of Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates of the Company include, among other things, accounts receivable realization, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, medical claims payable, other medical liabilities, contingent consideration, stock compensation assumptions, tax contingencies and legal liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE A—General (Continued)

Managed Care and Other Revenue

        Managed Care Revenue.    Managed care revenue, inclusive of revenue from the Company's risk, EAP and ASO contracts, is recognized over the applicable coverage period on a per member basis for covered members. The Company is paid a per member fee for all enrolled members, and this fee is recorded as revenue in the month in which members are entitled to service. The Company adjusts its revenue for retroactive membership terminations, additions and other changes, when such adjustments are identified, with the exception of retroactivity that can be reasonably estimated. The impact of retroactive rate amendments is generally recorded in the accounting period that terms to the amendment are finalized, and that the amendment is executed. Any fees paid prior to the month of service are recorded as deferred revenue. Managed care revenues approximated $654.6 million and $1,284.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $595.1 million and $1,323.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

        Fee-For-Service and Cost-Plus Contracts.    The Company has certain fee-for-service contracts, including cost-plus contracts, with customers under which the Company recognizes revenue as services are performed and as costs are incurred. This includes revenues received in relation to ACA fees billed on a cost reimbursement basis. Revenues from these contracts approximated $51.0 million and $100.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $73.0 million and $132.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

        Block Grant Revenues.    The Maricopa Contract (as defined below) was partially funded by federal, state and county block grant money, which represents annual appropriations. The Company recognizes revenue from block grant activity ratably over the period to which the block grant funding applies. Block grant revenues were approximately $31.4 million and $64.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $0.0 million and $33.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

        Performance-Based Revenue.    The Company has the ability to earn performance-based revenue under certain risk and non-risk contracts. Performance-based revenue generally is based on either the ability of the Company to manage care for its clients below specified targets, or on other operating metrics. For each such contract, the Company estimates and records performance-based revenue after considering the relevant contractual terms and the data available for the performance-based revenue calculation. Pro-rata performance-based revenue may be recognized on an interim basis pursuant to the rights and obligations of each party upon termination of the contracts. Performance-based revenues were $1.5 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $2.4 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

        Rebate Revenue.    The Company administers a rebate program for certain clients through which the Company coordinates the achievement, calculation and collection of rebates and administrative fees from pharmaceutical manufacturers on behalf of clients. Each period, the Company estimates the total rebates earned based on actual volumes of pharmaceutical purchases by the Company's clients, as well as historical and/or anticipated sharing percentages. The Company earns fees based upon the volume of rebates generated for its clients. The Company does not record as rebate revenue any rebates that are passed through to its clients. Total rebate revenues were $8.1 million and $16.8 million for the three

and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $9.2 million and $13.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

        In relation to the Company's PBM business, the Company administers rebate programs through which it receives rebates from pharmaceutical manufacturers that are shared with its customers. The Company recognizes rebates when the Company is entitled to them and when the amounts of the rebates are determinable. The amount recorded for rebates earned by the Company from the pharmaceutical manufacturers are recorded as a reduction of cost of goods sold.

PBM and Dispensing Revenue

        Pharmacy Benefit Management Revenue.    The Company recognizes PBM revenue, which consists of a negotiated prescription price (ingredient cost plus dispensing fee), co-payments collected by the pharmacy and any associated administrative fees, when claims are adjudicated. The Company recognizes PBM revenue on a gross basis (i.e. including drug costs and co-payments) as it is acting as the principal in the arrangement and is contractually obligated to its clients and network pharmacies, which is a primary indicator of gross reporting. In addition, the Company is solely responsible for the claims adjudication process, negotiating the prescription price for the pharmacy, collection of payments from the client for drugs dispensed by the pharmacy, and managing the total prescription drug relationship with the client's members. If the Company enters into a contract where it is only an administrator, and does not assume any of the risks previously noted, revenue will be recognized on a net basis. PBM revenues were $5.5 million and $10.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $146.3 million and $227.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The increase mainly relates to the October 1, 2013 acquisition of Partners Rx Management, LLC ("Partners Rx").

        Dispensing Revenue.    The Company recognizes dispensing revenue, which includes the co-payments received from members of the health plans the Company serves, when the specialty pharmaceutical drugs are shipped. At the time of shipment, the earnings process is complete; the obligation of the Company's customer to pay for the specialty pharmaceutical drugs is fixed, and, due to the nature of the product, the member may neither return the specialty pharmaceutical drugs nor receive a refund. Revenues from the dispensing of specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans were $90.6 million and $184.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $59.4 million and $115.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Significant Customers

Consolidated Company

        Through March 31, 2014, the Company provided behavioral healthcare management and other related services to approximately 680,000 members in Maricopa County, Arizona as the Regional Behavioral Health Authority ("RBHA") for GSA6 ("Maricopa County") pursuant to a contract with the State of Arizona (the "Maricopa Contract"). The Maricopa Contract was for the management of the publicly funded behavioral health system that delivered mental health, substance abuse and crisis services for adults, youth, and children. The Maricopa Contract terminated on March 31, 2014. The

Concentration of Business

        The Company also has a significant concentration of business with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program. Net revenues from the Pennsylvania Counties in the aggregate totaled $178.0 million and $179.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.

        In addition, the Company has a significant concentration of business with the State of Florida. The Company currently has behavioral healthcare contracts with various areas in the State of Florida (the "Florida Areas") which are part of the Florida Medicaid program. The State of Florida is implementing a new system of mandated managed care through which Medicaid enrollees will receive integrated healthcare services, and by July 31, 2014 it will phase out the behavioral healthcare programs under which the Florida Areas' contracts operate. The Company has a contract with the State of Florida to provide integrated healthcare services under the new program. Net revenues from the State of Florida in the aggregate totaled $66.3 million and $56.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.

        The Company's contracts with customers typically have terms of one to three years, and in certain cases contain renewal provisions (at the customer's option) for successive terms of between one and two years (unless terminated earlier). Substantially all of these contracts may be immediately terminated with cause and many of the Company's contracts are terminable without cause by the customer or the Company either upon the giving of requisite notice and the passage of a specified period of time (typically between 60 and 180 days) or upon the occurrence of other specified events. In addition, the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies generally are conditioned on legislative appropriations. These contracts generally can be terminated or modified by the customer if such appropriations are not made.

Fair Value Measurements

        The Company has certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy, which are as follows:

        Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

        Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

        Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including the Company's data.

        In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014 (in thousands):

NOTE A—General (Continued)

        For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company has not transferred any assets between fair value measurement levels.

        All of the Company's investments are classified as "available-for-sale" and are carried at fair value.

        The contingent consideration liability reflects the fair values of potential future payments related to the CDMI, LLC ("CDMI") acquisition. The CDMI purchase agreement provides for potential contingent payments up to a maximum aggregate amount of $165.0 million. The potential future payments are contingent upon CDMI meeting certain client retention, client conversion, and gross profit milestones through December 31, 2016. The fair value of contingent consideration is determined based on probabilities of payment, projected payment dates, discount rates, and projected revenues, gross profits, and client base. The projected revenues, gross profits, and client base are derived from the Company's latest internal operational forecasts. The Company used a probability weighted discounted cash flow method to arrive at the fair value of the contingent consideration. Changes in the operational forecasts, probabilities of payment, discount rates, or projected payment dates may result in a change in the fair value measurement. Any changes in the fair value measurement are reflected as income or expense in the consolidated statements of income. As the fair value measurement for the contingent consideration is based on inputs not observed in the market, these measurements are classified as Level 3 measurements as defined by fair value measurement guidance.

        The following unobservable inputs were used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration: (i) discount rate of 14.5 percent; (ii) probabilities of payment of 0.2 percent to 75.9 percent; and (iii) projected payment dates of 2015 to 2017. As of the acquisition date, the Company estimated undiscounted future contingent payments of $61.7 million. As of June 30, 2014 the fair value of the contingent consideration was $47.0 million and is included in accrued liabilities and contingent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The change in the present value of the contingent consideration was $1.2 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 and was recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

        The following table summarizes the Company's liability for contingent consideration:

        If a debt security is in an unrealized loss position and the Company has the intent to sell the debt security, or it is more likely than not that the Company will have to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary and is recorded to other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized in income in the consolidated statements of income. For impaired debt securities that the Company does not intend to sell or it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell such securities, but the Company expects

that it will not fully recover the amortized cost basis, the credit component of the other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized in income in the consolidated statements of income and the non-credit component of the other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in other comprehensive income.

        As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014, there were no unrealized losses that the Company believed to be other-than-temporary. No realized gains or losses were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized a $0.1 million loss on the sale of investments. The following is a summary of short-term and long-term investments at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014 (in thousands):

Income Taxes

        The Company's effective income tax rates were 40.6 percent and 52.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. These rates differ from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes, permanent differences between book and tax income, and changes to recorded tax contingencies. The Company also accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is lower than the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 mainly due to the non-deductible ACA fees and valuations allowances for certain deferred tax assets.

        The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return for the Company and its eighty percent or more owned subsidiaries, and the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in various states and local jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax assessments by tax authorities for years ended prior to 2010.

        At December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014, the Company had equity-based employee incentive plans, which are described more fully in Note 6 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $4.6 million and $10.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $9.5 million and $14.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Stock compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014 has been reduced for forfeitures, estimated at four percent for both periods.

        The weighted average grant date fair value of all stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $13.61 as estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, which also assumed an expected volatility of 26.20 percent based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price.

        The benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized stock compensation expense are reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow. In the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, $0.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively, of benefits of such tax deductions related to stock compensation expense were realized and as such were reported as financing cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the net change to additional paid in capital related to tax benefits (deficiencies) was $(0.1) million, which includes $(0.6) million of excess tax deficiencies offset by the $0.5 million of excess tax benefits. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the net change to additional paid in capital related to tax benefits (deficiencies) was $2.1 million, which includes the $2.4 million of excess tax benefits offset by $(0.3) million of excess tax deficiencies.

Long Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations

        On December 9, 2011, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Credit Agreement with Citibank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A., and U.S. Bank, N.A. that provides for up to $230.0 million of revolving loans with a sublimit of up to $70.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company (the "2011 Credit Facility"). Citibank, N.A., has assigned a portion of its interest in the 2011 Credit Facility to Bank of Tokyo. The 2011 Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the non-regulated subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors. The 2011 Credit Facility will mature on December 9, 2014.

        Under the 2011 Credit Facility, the annual interest rate on revolving loan borrowings is equal to (i) in the case of U.S. dollar denominated loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 0.75 percent plus the higher of the prime rate, one-half of one percent in excess of the overnight "federal funds" rate, or the Eurodollar rate for one month plus 1.00 percent, or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar denominated loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 1.75 percent plus the Eurodollar rate for the selected interest period. The Company has the option to borrow in U.S. dollar denominated loans or Eurodollar denominated loans at its discretion. Letters of credit issued under the Revolving Loan Commitment bear interest at the rate of 1.875 percent. The commitment commission on the 2011 Credit Facility is 0.375 percent of the unused Revolving Loan Commitment.

        On July 23, 2014, the Company entered into a $500.0 million Credit Agreement with various lenders that provides for Magellan Rx Management, Inc. to borrow up to $250.0 million of revolving loans, with a sublimit of up to $70.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company, and a term loan in an original aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million (the "2014 Credit Facility").

Intangible Assets

        The following is a summary of intangible assets at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014, and the estimated useful lives for such assets (in thousands):

 

        Amortization expense was $2.3 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $5.7 million and $9.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company estimates amortization expense will be $22.8 million, $25.0 million, $20.7 million, $16.9 million and $15.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

        On December 31, 2013, the Company acquired a 65% equity interest in AlphaCare Holdings, Inc. ("AlphaCare Holdings"). The other shareholders of AlphaCare Holdings have the right to exercise put options, requiring the Company to purchase up to 50 percent of the remaining shares prior to January 1, 2017 provided certain membership levels are attained. After December 31, 2016 the other shareholders of AlphaCare Holdings have the right to exercise put options requiring the Company to purchase all or any portion of the remaining shares. In addition, after December 31, 2016 the Company has the right to purchase all remaining shares. Non-controlling interests with redemption features, such as put options, that are not solely within the Company's control are considered redeemable non-controlling interest. Redeemable non-controlling interest is considered to be temporary and is therefore reported in a mezzanine level between liabilities and stockholders' equity on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the non-controlling interest's share of net income or loss or its redemption value. The Company recorded $10.6 million of redeemable non-controlling interest in relation to the acquisition. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest as of June 30, 2014 was $8.6 million. The $2.0 million reduction in carrying

value for the six months ended June 30, 2014 is a result of operating losses. The Company recognizes changes in the redemption value on a quarterly basis and adjusts the carrying amount of the non-controlling interest to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Under this method, this is viewed at the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the non-controlling interest. The Company will reflect redemption value adjustments in the earnings per share calculation if redemption value is in excess of the carrying value of the non-controlling interest. As of June 30, 2014 the carrying value of the non-controlling interest exceeded the redemption value and therefore no adjustment to the carrying value was required.

        The Company had additional potential dilutive securities outstanding representing 1.2 million and 1.9 million options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and 0.7 million and 0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, that were not included in the computation of dilutive securities because they were anti-dilutive for the period. Had these shares not been anti-dilutive, all of these shares would not have been included in the net income attributable to common shareholder per common share calculation as the Company uses the treasury stock method of calculating diluted shares.

NOTE C—Business Segment Information

        The accounting policies of the Company's segments are the same as those described in Note A—"General." The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on segment profit attributable to Magellan shareholders, which is defined as income before taxes, excluding stock compensation expense, non-controlling interest segment profit (loss), depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, gain on sale of assets, and special charges or benefits ("Segment Profit"). Management uses Segment Profit information for internal reporting and control purposes and considers it important in making decisions regarding the allocation of capital and other resources, risk assessment and employee compensation, among other matters. Public Sector subcontracts with Pharmacy Management to provide pharmacy benefits management services for certain of Public Sector's customers. In addition, Pharmacy Management provides pharmacy benefits management for the Company's employees covered under its medical plan. As such, revenue, cost of care, cost of goods sold and direct service costs and other related to these arrangements are eliminated. The Company's segments are defined above.

        The following tables summarize, for the periods indicated, operating results by business segment (in thousands):

NOTE D—Non-GAAP Measures

        The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP, however the Company's management also assesses business performance and makes business decisions regarding the Company's operations using certain non-GAAP measures. In addition to Segment Profit, as defined in Note C—"Business Segment Information", the Company also uses adjusted net income attributable to Magellan Health, Inc. ("Adjusted Net Income") and adjusted net income per common share attributable to Magellan Health, Inc. on a diluted basis ("Adjusted EPS"). Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS reflect certain adjustments made for acquisitions completed after January 1, 2013 to exclude non-cash stock compensation expense resulting from restricted stock purchases by sellers as well as amortization of identified acquisition intangibles. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide a more useful comparison of the Company's underlying business performance from period to period and is more representative of the earnings capacity of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures we disclose, such as Segment Profit, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS, should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP.

NOTE E—Commitments and Contingencies

Legal

        The Company's operating activities entail significant risks of liability. From time to time, the Company is subject to various actions and claims arising from the acts or omissions of its employees, network providers or other parties. In the normal course of business, the Company receives reports relating to deaths and other serious incidents involving patients whose care is being managed by the Company. Such incidents occasionally give rise to malpractice, professional negligence and other related actions and claims against the Company or its network providers. Many of these actions and claims received by the Company seek substantial damages and therefore require the Company to incur significant fees and costs related to their defense.

        The Company is also subject to or party to certain class actions and other litigation and claims relating to its operations or business practices. In the opinion of management, the Company has recorded reserves that are adequate to cover litigation, claims or assessments that have been or may be

asserted against the Company, and for which the outcome is probable and reasonably estimable. Management believes that the resolution of such litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations; however, there can be no assurance in this regard.

Stock Repurchases

        On October 25, 2011 the Company's board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan which authorized the Company to purchase up to $200 million of its outstanding common stock through October 25, 2013. On July 24, 2013 the Company's board of directors approved an increase and extension of the stock repurchase plan which authorizes the Company to purchase up to $300 million of its outstanding stock through October 25, 2015.

        Stock repurchases under the program may be purchased from time to time in open market transactions (including blocks) or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors including the market price of the Company's shares, general market and economic conditions, and other corporate considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow the Company to purchase its shares during periods when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from working capital and anticipated cash from operations. The repurchase authorization does not require the purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by the Company's board of directors at any time.

        Pursuant to this program, the Company made open market purchases as follows (aggregate cost excludes broker commissions and is reflected in millions):

        During the period from July 1, 2014 through July 21, 2014, the Company made additional open market purchases of 223,821 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate cost of $14.0 million (excluding broker commissions).

Restructuring Activities

        As a result of restructuring activities initiated in 2013, the Company recorded liabilities for employee termination costs. The restructuring activities initiated in 2013 were related to contract terminations and organizational changes made in an effort to improve the Company's ability to execute

its strategy. The Company anticipates additional restructuring costs in 2014 associated with lease termination and exit costs of $1.0 million. The additional projected restructuring costs are associated with the Commercial segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company incurred $1.1 million of employee termination costs and $1.2 million of lease termination and exit costs. The restructuring costs incurred by segment were Public Sector $1.5 million, Commercial $0.7 million and Corporate $0.1 million. As of June 30, 2014, the Company incurred cumulative restructuring costs of $17.6 million related to 2013 initiatives. As of June 30, 2014, the cumulative restructuring costs incurred by segment were Public Sector $8.3 million, Commercial $5.4 million, and Corporate $3.9 million. Restructuring costs are included in direct service costs and other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

        The following table summarizes the activity related to the restructuring liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, by reportable segment (in thousands):

NOTE F—Acquisitions

Acquisition of Partners Rx Management, LLC

        Pursuant to the September 6, 2013 agreement and plan of merger (the "Partners Agreement") with Partners Rx Management, LLC ("Partners Rx"), on October 1, 2013 the Company acquired all of the outstanding ownership interests of Partners Rx. Partners Rx is a full-service commercial PBM with a strong focus on health plans and self-funded employers primarily through sales through third party administrators, consultants and brokers. As consideration for the transaction, the Company paid $100 million in cash, subject to working capital adjustments. The Company funded the acquisition with cash on hand.

        During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company made a measurement period adjustment of $0.3 million to decrease the deferred tax liability related to the Partners Rx acquisition.

        As of June 30, 2014, settlement of the working capital and certain contractual liabilities remain open and therefore are subject to further estimation. In addition, the amount recognized for deferred tax assets may be impacted by the determination of these items. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to the completion of the measurement period as required.

Acquisition of AlphaCare Holdings, Inc.

        Pursuant to the August 13, 2013 stock purchase agreement (the "AlphaCare Agreement"), on December 31, 2013 the Company acquired a 65% equity interest in AlphaCare Holdings, Inc. ("AlphaCare Holdings"), the holding company for AlphaCare New York, Inc.

        Based on the Company's 65% equity and voting interest in AlphaCare Holdings, the Company has included the results of operations in its consolidated financial statements. The Company reports the results of operations of AlphaCare Holdings within the Public Sector segment.

        During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company made net retrospective adjustments to provisional amounts related to the AlphaCare Holdings acquisition that were recognized at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement amounts recognized as of that date.

        The Company reports the results of operations of CDMI within its Pharmacy Management segment. The consolidated statements of income include total revenues and Segment Profit from CDMI of $6.9 million and $5.8 million for the two months subsequent to the acquisition.

        The purchase price has been allocated based upon the estimated fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. A portion of the excess purchase price over tangible net assets acquired has been allocated to identified intangible assets totaling $84.3 million, consisting of customer contracts in the amount of $82.7 million, which is being amortized over 8 years, non-compete agreements in the amount of $1.2 million, which is being amortized over 6.5 years and tradename in the amount of $0.4 million, which is being amortized over 20 months. The entire excess purchase price over tangible net assets acquired is amortizable for tax purposes, although the Company's effective rate will not be impacted by the tax amortization.

        The estimated fair values of CDMI assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition are summarized as follows (in thousands):

        As of June 30, 2013 the Company established a working capital receivable of $4.4 million that was reflected as a reduction to goodwill.

        The fair value of contingent consideration is determined based on probabilities of payment, projected payment dates, discount rates, and projected revenues, gross profits, and client base. The projected revenues, gross profits, and client base are derived from the Company's latest internal operational forecasts. The Company used a probability weighted discounted cash flow method to arrive at the fair value of the contingent consideration. Changes in the operational forecasts, probabilities of payment, discount rates, or projected payment dates may result in change in the fair value measurement. Any changes in the fair value measurement are reflected as income or expense in the consolidated statements of income. As of the acquisition date, the Company estimated undiscounted future contingent payments of $61.7 million. As of June 30, 2014 the fair value of the contingent consideration was $47.0 million and is included in accrued liabilities and contingent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The change in the present value of the contingent consideration was

        The Company's estimated fair values of CDMI assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition are determined based on certain valuations and analyses that have yet to be finalized, and accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as detailed below, are subject to adjustment once the analyses are completed. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to the completion of the measurement period as required.

        In connection with the CDMI acquisition, the Company incurred $1.2 million of acquisition related costs that were expensed during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Business Overview

        The Company is engaged in the healthcare management business, and is focused on meeting needs in areas of healthcare that are fast growing, highly complex and high cost, with an emphasis on special population management. The Company provides services to health plans, MCOs, insurance companies, employers, labor unions, various military and governmental agencies, third party administrators, consultants and brokers. The Company's business is divided into the following five segments, based on the services it provides and/or the customers that it serves, as described below.

Managed Healthcare

        Two of the Company's segments are in the managed healthcare business. This line of business reflects the Company's: (i) management of behavioral healthcare services, and (ii) the integrated management of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical healthcare for special populations, delivered through MCC. The Company's coordination and management of physical and behavioral healthcare includes services provided through its comprehensive network of medical and behavioral health professionals, clinics, hospitals and ancillary service providers. This network of credentialed and

privileged providers is integrated with clinical and quality improvement programs to enhance the healthcare experience for individuals in need of care, while at the same time managing the cost of these services for our customers. The treatment services provided through the Company's provider network include outpatient programs, intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient treatment and crisis intervention services. The Company generally does not directly provide or own any provider of treatment services, although it does employ licensed behavioral health counselors to deliver non-medical counseling under certain government contracts.

        The Company's integrated management of physical and behavioral healthcare includes its full service health plans which provide for the holistic management of special populations. These special populations include individuals with serious mental illness, dual eligibles, those eligible for long term care and other populations with unique and often complex healthcare needs.

        The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee, (ii) ASO products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services, and (iii) EAPs where the Company provides short-term outpatient behavioral counseling services.

        The managed healthcare business is managed based on the services provided and/or the customers served, through the following two segments:

        Commercial.    Commercial generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP services provided under contracts with health plans, insurance companies and MCOs for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers, including corporations, governmental agencies, military and labor unions. Commercial's contracts encompass risk-based, ASO and EAP arrangements. As of June 30, 2014, Commercial's covered lives were 4.1 million, 15.7 million and 13.0 million for risk-based, ASO and EAP products, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Commercial's revenue was $235.0 million, $65.0 million and $86.9 million for risk-based, ASO and EAP products, respectively.

        Public Sector.    Public Sector generally reflects: (i) the management of behavioral health services provided to recipients under Medicaid and other state sponsored programs under contracts with state and local governmental agencies, and (ii) the integrated management of physical, behavioral and pharmaceutical care for special populations covered under Medicaid and other government sponsored programs. Public Sector contracts encompass either risk-based or ASO arrangements. As of June 30, 2014, Public Sector's covered lives were 1.5 million and 1.8 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Public Sector's revenue was $789.9 million and $28.0 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.

Specialty Solutions

        Specialty Solutions generally reflects the management of the delivery of diagnostic imaging (radiology benefits management or "RBM") and a variety of other specialty areas such as radiation oncology, obstetrical ultrasound, cardiology and musculoskeletal management to ensure that such services are clinically appropriate and cost effective. The Company's Specialty Solutions services are currently provided under contracts with health plans and insurance companies for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members. The Company also contracts with state and local governmental agencies for the provision of such services to Medicaid recipients. The Company offers its Specialty Solutions services through risk-based contracts, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing services, and through ASO contracts, where the Company provides services such as utilization review and claims administration, but does not

assume responsibility for the cost of the services. As of June 30, 2014, covered lives for Specialty Solutions were 6.8 million and 13.5 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenue for Specialty Solutions was $203.1 million and $21.7 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.

Pharmacy Management

        Pharmacy Management comprises products and solutions that provide clinical and financial management of drugs paid under medical and pharmacy benefit programs. Pharmacy Management's services include (i) traditional PBM services; (ii) PBA for state Medicaid and other government sponsored programs; (iii) specialty pharmaceutical dispensing operations, contracting and formulary optimization programs; (iv) medical pharmacy management programs; and (v) programs for the integrated management of drugs that treat complex conditions, regardless of site of service, method of delivery, or benefit reimbursement. In addition, the Company had a subcontract arrangement to provide PBM services on a risk basis for one of Public Sector's customers, which terminated on March 31, 2014.

        The Company's Pharmacy Management programs are provided under contracts with health plans, employers, Medicaid MCOs, state Medicaid programs, and other government agencies, and encompass risk-based and FFS arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Pharmacy Management paid 3.6 million adjusted commercial network claims in the Company's PBM business. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had a generic dispensing rate of 83.6 percent within its commercial PBM business. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company paid 36.2 million adjusted PBA claims and 47.6 thousand specialty dispensing claims.

By Segment

        In addition to the Maricopa Contract previously discussed, the following customers generated in excess of ten percent of net revenues for the respective segment for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014 (in thousands):

Concentration of Business

        The Company also has a significant concentration of business with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program. Net revenues from the Pennsylvania Counties in the aggregate totaled $178.0 million and $179.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.

        In addition, the Company has a significant concentration of business with the State of Florida. The Company currently has behavioral healthcare contracts with various areas in the State of Florida (the "Florida Areas") which are part of the Florida Medicaid program. The State of Florida is

implementing a new system of mandated managed care through which Medicaid enrollees will receive integrated healthcare services, and it will phase out the behavioral healthcare programs under which the Florida Areas' contracts operate by July 31, 2014. The Company has a contract with the State of Florida to provide integrated healthcare services under the new program. Net revenues from the State of Florida in the aggregate totaled $66.3 million and $56.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.

        The Company's contracts with customers typically have terms of one to three years, and in certain cases contain renewal provisions (at the customer's option) for successive terms of between one and two years (unless terminated earlier). Substantially all of these contracts may be immediately terminated with cause and many of the Company's contracts are terminable without cause by the customer or the Company either upon the giving of requisite notice and the passage of a specified period of time (typically between 60 and 180 days) or upon the occurrence of other specified events. In addition, the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies generally are conditioned on legislative appropriations. These contracts generally can be terminated or modified by the customer if such appropriations are not made.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates of the Company include, among other things, accounts receivable realization, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, medical claims payable, other medical liabilities, stock compensation assumptions, tax contingencies and legal liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Except as noted below, the Company's critical accounting policies are summarized in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014.

Income Taxes

        The Company's effective income tax rates were 40.6 percent and 52.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. These rates differ from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes, permanent differences between book and tax income, and changes to recorded tax contingencies. The Company also accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is lower than the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 mainly due to the non-deductible ACA fees and valuations allowances for certain deferred tax assets.

        The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return for the Company and its eighty percent or more owned subsidiaries, and the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in various states and local jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax assessments by tax authorities for years ended prior to 2010.

Results of Operations

        The accounting policies of the Company's segments are the same as those described in Note A—"General." The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on Segment Profit. Management uses Segment Profit information for internal reporting and control purposes and considers it important in making decisions regarding the allocation of capital and other resources, risk assessment and employee compensation, among other matters. Public Sector subcontracts with Pharmacy Management to provide pharmacy benefits management services for certain of Public Sector's customers. In addition, Pharmacy Management provides pharmacy benefits management for the Company's employees covered under its medical plan. As such, revenue, cost of care, cost of goods sold and direct service costs and other related to these arrangements are eliminated. The Company's segments are defined above.

This increase is primarily due to revenue of $166.9 million for Partners Rx which was acquired on October 1, 2013, new contracts of $58.6 million and net increased dispensing activity from existing customers of $2.5 million. These increases were partially offset by terminated distribution contracts of $72.5 million and other net decreases of $1.8 million.

Cost of Care

        Cost of care decreased by 41.9 percent or $11.7 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period. This decrease is primarily due to a terminated contract of $14.6 million. Cost of care increased as a percentage of risk revenue from 89.1 percent in the Prior Year Period to 90.1 percent in the Current Year Period mainly due to unfavorable care trends.

Cost of Goods Sold

        Cost of goods sold increased by 76.4 percent or $140.4 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period. This increase is primarily due to cost of goods sold for Partners Rx of $151.0 million, new contracts implemented after the Prior Year Period of $57.3 million and increased dispensing activity from existing customers of $1.6 million. These increases were partially offset by terminated contracts of $68.1 million and other net deceases of $1.4 million. As a percentage of the portion of net revenue that relates to PBM and dispensing activity, cost of goods sold decreased from 94.1 percent in the Prior Year Period to 92.9 percent in the Current Year Period, mainly due to business mix.

Direct Service Costs

        Direct service costs increased by 26.6 percent or $16.2 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period. This increase mainly relates to the Partners Rx acquisition, implementation costs and ongoing costs to support new business. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 20.0 percent in the Prior Year Period to 17.2 percent in the Current Year Period, mainly due to business mix.

Corporate and Other

Other Operating Expenses

        Other operating expenses related to the Corporate and Other segment increased by 6.5 percent or $3.8 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period. The increase relates primarily to legal fees of $1.3 million, severance cost of $0.9 million, discretionary benefits of $0.7 million and other net unfavorable one time items in the Current Year Period of $0.9 million. As a percentage of total net

48

revenue, other operating expenses decreased from 3.5 percent for the Prior Year Period to 3.4 percent for the Current Year Period business mix.

Depreciation and Amortization

        Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 29.0 percent or $9.6 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period, primarily due to asset additions after the Prior Year Period and acquisition activity.

Interest Expense

        Interest expense increased by 102.6 percent or $1.4 million from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period, mainly due to the change in the present value of the contingent consideration liability related to CDMI acquisition.

Interest Income

        Interest income was consistent with Prior Year.

Income Taxes

        The Company's effective income tax rates were 40.6 percent and 52.6 percent for the Prior Year Period and Current Year Period, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the Current Year Period differs from the Prior Year Period effective rate mainly due to the non-deductible ACA fees and valuation allowances for certain deferred tax assets.

Outlook—Results of Operations

        The Company's Segment Profit and net income are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period. These fluctuations may result from a variety of factors such as those set forth under Item 1A—"Risk Factors" as well as a variety of other factors including: (i) changes in utilization levels by enrolled members of the Company's risk-based contracts, including seasonal utilization patterns; (ii) contractual adjustments and settlements; (iii) retrospective membership adjustments; (iv) timing of implementation of new contracts, enrollment changes and contract terminations; (v) pricing adjustments upon contract renewals (and price competition in general); (vi) the timing of acquisitions; and (vii) changes in estimates regarding medical costs and IBNR.

        A portion of the Company's business is subject to rising care costs due to an increase in the number and frequency of covered members seeking behavioral healthcare or radiology services, and higher costs per inpatient day or outpatient visit for behavioral services, and higher costs per scan for radiology services. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's control. Future results of operations will be heavily dependent on management's ability to obtain customer rate increases that are consistent with care cost increases and/or to reduce operating expenses.

        In relation to the managed behavioral healthcare business, the Company is a market leader in a mature market with many viable competitors. The Company is continuing its attempts to grow its business in the managed behavioral healthcare industry through aggressive marketing and development of new products; however, due to the maturity of the market, the Company believes that the ability to grow its current business lines may be limited. In addition, as previously discussed, substantially all of the Company's Commercial segment revenues are derived from Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans and other managed care companies, health insurers and health plans. In the past, certain of the managed care customers of the Company have decided not to renew all or part of their contracts with the Company, and to instead manage the behavioral healthcare services directly for their subscribers.

        Care Trends.    The Company expects that same-store normalized cost of care trend for the 12-month forward outlook to be 6 to 8 percent for Commercial, 0 to 2 percent for Public Sector and 3 to 5 percent for Specialty Solutions.

        Interest Rate Risk.    Changes in interest rates affect interest income earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments, as well as interest expense on variable interest rate borrowings under the Company's 2014 Credit Facility. Based on the amount of cash equivalents and investments and the borrowing levels under the 2014 Credit Facility as of June 30, 2014, a hypothetical 10 percent increase or decrease in the interest rate associated with these instruments, with all other variables held constant, would not materially affect the Company's future earnings and cash outflows.

Historical—Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Operating Activities.    The Company reported net cash provided by operating activities of $86.9 million and $137.1 million for the Prior Year Period and Current Year Period, respectively. The $50.2 million increase in operating cash flows from the Prior Year Period to the Current Year Period is attributable to net favorable working capital changes between periods and lower tax payments, partially offset by the decrease in Segment Profit between periods and the impact of the net shift of restricted funds between cash and investments that results in an operating cash flow change that is directly offset by an investing cash flow change.

        The net favorable impact of working capital changes between periods totaled $90.6 million. Operating cash flows for the Prior Year Period were impacted by net unfavorable working capital changes of $47.1 million, which were largely attributable to management incentive payments, an increase in accounts receivable, as well as a net increase in restricted cash requirements associated with the Company's regulated entities, partially offset by accruals associated with the management incentive plan. For the Current Year Period, operating cash flows were impacted by net favorable working capital changes of $43.5 million, largely attributable to a net decrease in restricted cash requirements associated with the Company's regulated entities, an increase in medical claims payable, and accruals associated with the management incentive plan, partially offset by management incentive payments. Tax payments for the Current Year Period totaled $40.3 million, which represents a decrease of $1.3 million from the Prior Year Period.

        Segment Profit for the Current Year Period decreased $22.7 million from the Prior Year Period. Restricted cash of $31.3 million and $12.3 million for the Prior Year Period and Current Year Period, respectively, were shifted to restricted investments that increased operating cash flows. The net impact of the shift in restricted funds between periods is a decrease in operating cash flows of $19.0 million.

        During the Current Year Period, the Company's restricted cash decreased $69.4 million. The change in restricted cash is attributable to decreases in restricted cash of $52.2 million associated with the Company's regulated entities, the net shift of restricted cash of $12.3 million to restricted investments, and other net decreases of $4.9 million. The net change in restricted cash for the Company's regulated entities is attributable to a net decrease in restricted cash requirements of $35.1 million that resulted in an operating cash flow source and net decreases of $17.1 million that are offset by changes in other assets and liabilities, primarily accounts receivable, accrued liabilities, medical claims payable and other medical liabilities, thus having no impact on operating cash flows.

        Investing Activities.    The Company utilized $27.0 million and $32.0 million during the Prior Year Period and Current Year Period, respectively, for capital expenditures. The additions related to hard assets (equipment, furniture, leaseholds) and capitalized software for the Prior Year Period were $7.9 million and $19.1 million, respectively, as compared to additions for the Current Year Period related to hard assets and capitalized software of $10.9 million and $21.1 million, respectively. During the Prior Year Period the Company used net cash of $26.3 million for the net purchase of "available-for-sale" securities, with the Company receiving net cash of $34.4 million during the Current

Year Period from the net maturity of "available-for-sale" securities. In addition, during the Prior Year Period the Company executed a note receivable in the amount of $5.9 million and purchased preferred stock of $2.0 million from AlphaCare, with the Company acquiring CDMI during the Current Year Period for $125.0 million.

        Financing Activities.    During the Prior Year Period, the Company paid $49.5 million for the repurchase of treasury stock under the Company's share repurchase program, paid $1.8 million on capital lease obligations, and had other net unfavorable items of $0.7 million. In addition, the Company received $16.1 million from the exercise of stock options.

        During the Current Year Period, the Company paid $65.3 million for the repurchase of treasury stock under the Company's share repurchase program and paid $2.1 million on capital lease obligations. In addition, the Company received $34.2 million from the exercise of stock options and had other net favorable items of $1.2 million.

Outlook—Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Liquidity.    During the remainder of 2014, the Company expects to fund its estimated capital expenditures of $24.0 million to $34.0 million with cash from operations. The Company does not anticipate that it will need to draw on amounts available under the 2014 Credit Facility for cash flow needs related to its operations, capital needs or debt service in 2014. The Company also currently expects to have adequate liquidity to satisfy its existing financial commitments over the periods in which they will become due. The Company may draw on the 2014 Credit Facility to fund a portion of cash required for its acquisition activities. The Company plans to maintain its current investment strategy of investing in a diversified, high quality, liquid portfolio of investments and continues to closely monitor the situation in the financial markets. The Company estimates that it has no risk of any material permanent loss on its investment portfolio; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience any such losses in the future.

        Stock Repurchases.    On October 25, 2011 the Company's board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan which authorized the Company to purchase up to $200 million of its outstanding common stock through October 25, 2013. On July 24, 2013 the Company's board of directors approved an increase and extension of the stock repurchase plan which authorizes the Company to purchase up to $300 million of its outstanding stock through October 25, 2015.

        Stock repurchases under the program may be purchased from time to time in open market transactions (including blocks) or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors including the market price of the Company's shares, general market and economic conditions, and other corporate considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow the Company to purchase its shares during periods when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from working capital and anticipated cash from operations. The repurchase authorization does not require the purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by the Company's board of directors at any time. The $250.0 million term loan under the 2014 Credit Facility may be drawn at any time, but no later

than September 30, 2014. Pursuant to this program, the Company made open market purchases as follows (aggregate cost excludes broker commissions and is reflected in millions):

        During the period from July 1, 2014 through July 21, 2014, the Company made additional open market purchases of 223,821 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate cost of $14.0 million (excluding broker commissions).

        Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.    As of June 30, 2014, the Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

        2011 Credit Facility.    On December 9, 2011, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Credit Agreement with Citibank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A., and U.S. Bank, N.A. that provides for up to $230.0 million of revolving loans with a sublimit of up to $70.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company (the "2011 Credit Facility"). Citibank, N.A., has assigned a portion of its interest in the 2011 Credit Facility to Bank of Tokyo. The 2011 Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the non-regulated subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors. The 2011 Credit Facility will mature on December 9, 2014.

        Under the 2011 Credit Facility, the annual interest rate on revolving loan borrowings is equal to (i) in the case of U.S. dollar denominated loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 0.75 percent plus the higher of the prime rate, one-half of one percent in excess of the overnight "federal funds" rate, or the Eurodollar rate for one month plus 1.00 percent, or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar denominated loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 1.75 percent plus the Eurodollar rate for the selected interest period. The Company has the option to borrow in U.S. dollar denominated loans or Eurodollar denominated loans at its discretion. Letters of credit issued under the Revolving Loan Commitment bear interest at the rate of 1.875 percent. The commitment commission on the 2011 Credit Facility is 0.375 percent of the unused Revolving Loan Commitment.

        On July 23, 2014, the Company entered into a $500.0 million Credit Agreement with various lenders that provides for Magellan Rx Management, Inc. to borrow up to $250.0 million of revolving loans, with a sublimit of up to $70.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company, and a term loan in an original aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million (the "2014 Credit Facility"). At such point, the 2011 Credit Facility was terminated. The 2014 Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the non-regulated subsidiaries of the Company and will mature on July 23, 2019, but the Company holds an option to extend the 2014 Credit Facility for an additional one year period. The term loan is also subject to certain quarterly amortization payments.

        Under the 2014 Credit Facility, the annual interest rate on revolving and term loan borrowings is equal to (i) in the case of base rate loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 0.50 percent plus the higher of the prime rate, one-half of one percent in excess of the overnight "federal funds" rate, or the Eurodollar rate for one month plus 1.00 percent, or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar rate loans, the sum of a borrowing margin of 1.50 percent plus the Eurodollar rate for the selected interest period, which rates shall be adjusted from time to time based on the Company's total leverage ratio. The Company

52

Table of Contents

has the option to borrow in base rate loans or Eurodollar rate loans at its discretion. Letters of credit issued bear interest at the rate of 1.625 percent. The commitment commission on the 2014 Credit Facility is 0.20 percent of the unused Revolving Loan Commitment, which rate shall be adjusted from time to time based on the Company's total leverage ratio.

        Restrictive Covenants in Debt Agreements.    The 2014 Credit Facility contains covenants that limit management's discretion in operating the Company's business by restricting or limiting the Company's ability, among other things, to:

•

incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred or redeemable stock;



•

pay dividends and make other distributions;



•

repurchase equity interests;



•

make certain advances, investments and loans;



•

enter into sale and leaseback transactions;



•

create liens;



•

sell and otherwise dispose of assets;



•

acquire or merge or consolidate with another company; and



•

enter into some types of transactions with affiliates.

        These restrictions could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance future operations or capital needs or engage in other business activities that may be in the Company's interest.

        The 2014 Credit Facility also requires the Company to comply with specified financial ratios and tests. Failure to do so, unless waived by the lenders under the 2014 Credit Facility pursuant to its terms, would result in an event of default under the 2014 Credit Facility.

        Net Operating Loss Carryforwards.    The Company has federal NOLs as of December 31, 2013 of $3.6 million available to reduce future federal taxable income. These NOLs, if not used, will expire in 2017 through 2019 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service. Utilization of these NOLs is also subject to certain timing limitations, although the Company does not believe these limitations will restrict its ability to use any federal NOLs before they expire. The Company has state NOLs as of December 31, 2013 of $152.3 million available to reduce future state taxable income at certain subsidiaries. Most of these NOLs, if not used, will expire in 2017 through 2022 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the respective state tax authorities.

        Deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014 are shown net of valuation allowances of $3.1 million and $6.8 million, respectively. These valuation allowances mostly relate to uncertainties regarding the eventual realization of certain NOLs. Determination of the amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable requires significant judgment and estimation regarding the forecasts of future taxable income which are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses. Future changes in the estimated realizable portion of deferred tax assets could materially affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In July 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-06, "Other Expenses (Topic 720): Fees Paid to the Federal Government by Health Insurers (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)" ("ASU 2011-06"), which addresses how fees mandated by the Patient Protection and the Affordable Care Act ("ACA"), as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the "Health

Reform Law"), should be recognized and classified in the income statements of health insurers. The Health Reform Law imposes a mandatory annual fee on health insurers for each calendar year beginning on or after January 1, 2014. ASU 2011-06 stipulates that the liability incurred for that fee be amortized to expense over the calendar year in which it is payable. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 31, 2013, when the fee initially becomes effective. The Company is currently pursuing rate adjustments to cover the direct costs of these fees and the impact from non-deductibility of such fees for federal and state income tax purposes. To the extent the Company has a state public sector customer that does not renew, there may be some impact due to taxes paid where the timing and amount of recoupment of these additional costs is uncertain. In the event the Company is unable to obtain rate adjustments to cover the financial impact of the annual fee, the fee may have a material impact on the Company. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has obtained signed commitments from four of its customers to recover the economic impact of the ACA fees. For 2014, the projected ACA fee is currently estimated to be $21.3 million and is included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Of this amount $5.6 million and $10.7 million was expensed in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, which is included in direct service costs and other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income. The Company has recorded revenues of $10.9 million and $14.1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, associated with the accrual for the reimbursement of the economic impact of the ACA fees from its customers. Of the revenues recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2014, $4.8 million are associated with the three months ended March 31, 2014, due to signed commitments obtained in the three months ended June 30, 2014.

        In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Carryforward Exists" ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and were adopted by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The effect of the guidance is immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

        In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09), which is a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated results of operation, financial position, and cash flows.

        In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period" ("ASU 2014-12), which revises the accounting treatment for stock compensation tied to performance targets. This ASU is effective for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance is not expected to materially impact the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

        Changes in interest rates affect interest income earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments, as well as interest expense on variable interest rate borrowings under the Company's 2014 Credit Facility. Based on the amount of cash equivalents and investments and the borrowing levels

Table of Contents

under the 2014 Credit Facility as of June 30, 2014, a hypothetical 10 percent increase or decrease in the interest rate associated with these instruments, with all other variables held constant, would not materially affect the Company's future earnings and cash outflows.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

        a)    The Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2014. Based on their evaluation, the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014.

        b)    Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers, the Company has determined that there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company's quarter ended June 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.

        The Company's operating activities entail significant risks of liability. From time to time, the Company is subject to various actions and claims arising from the acts or omissions of its employees, network providers or other parties. In the normal course of business, the Company receives reports relating to deaths and other serious incidents involving patients whose care is being managed by the Company. Such incidents occasionally give rise to malpractice, professional negligence and other related actions and claims against the Company or its network providers. Many of these actions and claims received by the Company seek substantial damages and therefore require the Company to incur significant fees and costs related to their defense.

        The Company is also subject to or party to certain class actions and other litigation and claims relating to its operations or business practices. In the opinion of management, the Company has recorded reserves that are adequate to cover litigation, claims or assessments that have been or may be asserted against the Company, and for which the outcome is probable and reasonably estimable. Management believes that the resolution of such litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations; however, there can be no assurance in this regard.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

        There has been no material change in our risk factors as disclosed in Part I—Item 1A—"Risk Factors" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 which was filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

        The Company's board of directors has previously authorized a series of stock repurchase plans. Stock repurchases for each such plan could be executed through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases or other means. The board of directors authorized management to execute stock repurchase transactions from time to time and in such amounts and via such methods as management deemed appropriate. Each stock repurchase program could be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice.

        On October 25, 2011 the Company's board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan which authorized the Company to purchase up to $200 million of its outstanding common stock through October 25, 2013. On July 24, 2013 the Company's board of directors approved an increase and extension of the stock repurchase plan which authorizes the Company to purchase up to $300 million of its outstanding stock through October 25, 2015.

        Stock repurchases under the program may be purchased from time to time in open market transactions (including blocks) or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors including the market price of the Company's shares, general market and economic conditions, and other corporate considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow the Company to purchase its shares during periods when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from working capital and anticipated cash from operations. The repurchase authorization does not require the purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by the Company's board of directors at any time.
