Aetna Inc. Research Reports
On July 29, 2014, Aetna Inc. (Aetna) announced Q2 2014 operating revenue of $14.5 billion, up 25.3% YoY, largely driven by higher healthcare premiums from approximately one additional month of revenue in 2014 from the Coventry acquisition, membership growth in healthcare businesses and the effects of pricing actions designed to recover healthcare reform mandated fees and taxes. The Company posted Q2 2014 net income of $548.8 million, up 2.4% YoY. Mark T. Bertolini, Chairman, CEO and President, Aetna, said, "Aetna reported solid results across multiple business lines this quarter, achieving record results for medical membership of 23.1 million members and operating revenues of $14.5 billion.
