Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2014, increased 9.7%, or approximately $3.1 billion, to $35.0 billion compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Revenues in the Pharmacy Services Segment increased 15.7%, or $3.1 billion, to $22.5 billion in the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was driven by growth in specialty pharmacy including the acquisition of Coram and the impact of Specialty Connect®, as well as increased volume in pharmacy network claims. Pharmacy network claims processed during the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased 4.3% to 209.6 million compared to 200.9 million in the prior year. The increase in the pharmacy network claim volume was primarily due to net new business and growth in Managed Medicaid, partially offset by a decrease in Medicare Part D claims. Mail choice claims processed during the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased 1.3% to 20.7 million, compared to 21.0 million in the prior year. The decrease in mail choice claims was driven by a decline in traditional mail volumes, which was partially offset by growth in our Maintenance Choice® program.
Revenues in the Retail Pharmacy Segment increased 3.1%, or $501 million, to $16.7 billion in the three months ended September 30, 2014. Same store sales increased 2.0% versus the third quarter of last year, with pharmacy same store sales up 4.8% and front store same store sales down 4.5%. Front store same store sales would have been approximately 480 basis points higher if tobacco and the estimated associated basket sales were excluded from the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. Front store same store sales were negatively impacted by softer customer traffic, partially offset by an increase in basket size. Pharmacy same store prescription volumes rose 5.1% on a 30-day equivalent basis. Pharmacy same store sales were negatively impacted by approximately 190 basis points from recent generic drug introductions and by approximately 190 basis points from the implementation of Specialty Connect. Specialty Connect transitioned all specialty prescriptions to the Pharmacy Services Segment, as they are being processed through the Company's specialty mail order pharmacies. The implementation of Specialty Connect had a greater effect on revenues than prescription volumes due to the higher dollar value of specialty products.
For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the generic dispensing rate increased approximately 180 basis points in both the Pharmacy Services Segment and Retail Pharmacy Segment, to 82.5% and 83.3%, respectively, compared to the prior year.
Operating Profit and Net Income
Operating profit for the Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments for the three months ended September 30, 2014, increased 7.3% and 4.3%, respectively. Both segments benefited from the impact of increased generic drugs dispensed, which improved operating margins. The Pharmacy Services Segment was also positively impacted by growth in specialty pharmacy and favorable purchasing economics, partially offset by price compression. The Retail Pharmacy Segment was also positively impacted by growth of prescription volumes combined with an improved pharmacy margin rate, partially offset by the loss of sales from tobacco and the associated basket as well as incremental store operating costs associated with operating more stores.
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2014, decreased 24.1%, or approximately $301 million, to approximately $0.9 billion, primarily due to a $521 million pre-tax loss ($0.27 per share) on the early extinguishment of debt. Excluding the loss on early extinguishment of debt and a $72 million pre-tax gain ($0.04 per share) from a legal settlement in 2013, net income increased 5.0%(1). Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, was $0.88 and $1.09, respectively. Excluding the 2014 loss on early extinguishment of debt and the 2013 gain from the legal settlement, Adjusted EPS increased 9.0% to $1.15. Adjusted EPS in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, excludes $126 million and $124 million, respectively, of intangible asset amortization related to acquisition activity. GAAP earnings per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, was $0.81 and $1.02, respectively.
President and Chief Executive Officer Larry Merlo stated, "I'm very pleased with our strong results in the third quarter, which reflect better-than-expected revenue growth across the enterprise and expanding retail gross margins. The 2015 PBM selling season continued to be highly successful with a significant number of new business wins across all lines of business. We also continued to deliver substantial free cash flow, enabling us to return more than $3.7 billion to our shareholders year to date. We are well on track to return more than $5 billion to our shareholders through dividends and share repurchases for the full year 2014."
Guidance
The Company narrowed its earnings guidance range for the full year 2014. The Company now expects to deliver Adjusted EPS of $4.47 to $4.50, from $4.43 to $4.51, excluding the $0.27 per share loss on early extinguishment of debt. GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations is expected to be $3.93 to $3.96, including the loss on the early extinguishment of debt. The Company raised its 2014 free cash flow guidance range to $5.7 billion to $6.0 billion, from $5.5 billion to $5.8 billion, and raised the 2014 cash flow from operations range to $7.4 billion to $7.7 billion, from $7.2 billion to $7.5 billion. The Company expects to deliver Adjusted EPS of $1.18 to $1.21 and GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations of $1.12 to $1.15 in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Real Estate Program
During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company opened 45 new and acquired 33 retail drugstores, and closed four retail drugstores. In addition, the Company relocated 13 retail drugstores. As of September 30, 2014, the Company operated 7,935 locations in 47 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Brazil.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share
(Unaudited)
For internal comparisons, management finds it useful to assess year-over-year performance by adjusting diluted earnings per share for amortization, which primarily relates to acquisition activities.
The Company defines adjusted earnings per share as income before income tax provision plus amortization, less adjusted income tax provision and other, which is comprised of earnings allocated to participating securities, divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
The following is a reconciliation of income before income tax provision to adjusted earnings per share:

(1) Net revenues of the Pharmacy Services Segment include approximately $1.9 billion of retail co-payments for both the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, as well as $6.1 billion of retail co-payments for both the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. |
||||||||||||||||||||

(2) Intersegment eliminations relate to two types of transaction: (i) Intersegment revenues that occur when Pharmacy Services Segment customers use Retail Pharmacy Segment stores to purchase covered products. When this occurs, both the Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments record the revenue on a stand-alone basis, and (ii) Intersegment revenues, gross profit and operating profit that occur when Pharmacy Services Segment customers, through the Company's intersegment activities (such as the Maintenance Choice® program), elect to pick up their maintenance prescriptions at Retail Pharmacy Segment stores instead of receiving them through the mail. When this occurs, both the Pharmacy Services and Retail Pharmacy segments record the revenue, gross profit and operating profit on a standalone basis. The following amounts are eliminated in consolidation in connection with the intersegment activity described in item (ii) above: net revenues of $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $3.6 billion and $3.1 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively; and gross profit and operating profit of $172 million and $143 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $518 million and $409 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||||
|
(3) Consolidated operating profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 includes a $72 million gain on a legal settlement, of which, $11 million is included in the Pharmacy Services Segment and $61 million is included in the Retail Pharmacy Segment. |

(1) Pharmacy network net revenues, claims processed and generic dispensing rates do not include Maintenance Choice, which are included within the mail choice category. | ||||||||||||||||
|
(2) Mail choice is defined as claims filled at a Pharmacy Services mail facility, which include specialty mail claims, as well as 90-day claims filled at retail under the Maintenance Choice program. | ||||||||||||||||
|
(3) Pharmacy network is defined as claims filled at retail pharmacies, including our retail drugstores, but excluding Maintenance Choice activity. | ||||||||||||||||
|
(4) In May 2014, the Company implemented Specialty Connect, which integrates the Company's mail and retail capabilities, providing members with the choice to bring their specialty prescriptions to any CVS/pharmacy location. Whether submitted through our mail order pharmacy or at CVS/pharmacy, all prescriptions are filled through the Company's specialty mail order pharmacies, so all revenue from this specialty prescription services program is recorded within the Pharmacy Services Segment. Members then can choose to pick up their medication at their local CVS/pharmacy or have it sent to their home through the mail. | ||||||||||||||||
|
(5) Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 includes a $11 million gain on a legal settlement. | ||||||||||||||||

Adjusted Earnings Per Share Guidance
(Unaudited)
The following reconciliation of estimated income before income tax provision to estimated adjusted earnings per share contains forward-looking information. All forward-looking information involves risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking information for a number of reasons as described in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and under the section entitled "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" in our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For internal comparisons, management finds it useful to assess year-over-year performance by adjusting diluted earnings per share for amortization, which primarily relates to acquisition activities.
