The company posted a diluted loss per share of $3.13, largely the result of a $5.7 billion goodwill impairment charge tied to its Healthcare Delivery unit. On an adjusted basis, earnings came in at $1.60 per share, up from $1.09 a year earlier, supported by stronger operating income in the Health Care Benefits segment.
