Humana Q1 revenue rises to $39.6 billion; GAAP EPS falls to $9.83, GAAP outlook cut
Humana reported first-quarter 2026 revenue of $39.6 billion, up from $32.1 billion a year earlier, but GAAP earnings per share fell to $9.83 from $10.30. The company cut its full-year 2026 GAAP EPS guidance to at least $8.36 from at least $8.89 while affirming its adjusted EPS guidance of at least $9.00, so shareholders face lower reported profit expectations even as sales grew.
