Highlight of Business Operations:

Louisiana, Maine, New Jersey, and West Virginia, as well as a contract to provide drug rebate administration services for the Florida Medicaid program. We paid $131.3 million to acquire Molina Medicaid Solutions, subject to working capital adjustments which we expect to be insignificant. The acquisition was funded with available cash of $26 million and $105 million drawn under our credit facility.

Unlike the Health Plans segment, the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment is a service-based business that adds to our revenue stream without assuming additional medical cost risk. Although revenue for the Health Plans segment far exceeded that of the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment for the three months ended June 30, 2010, operating income as a percent of revenue for the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment far exceeded that of the Health Plans segment for that period. For example, the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment reported revenue of $21.1 million and an operating profit of $5 million for the two months of its operations that were included in our results for the three months ended June 30, 2010, representing an operating profit margin percentage of 24%. Over the course of three months of operations included in that same reporting period, our Health Plans segment reported revenue of $976.7 million and an operating profit of $16.2 million, representing an operating profit margin percentage of 2%. Although we expect the operating profit margin percentage of our Molina Medicaid Solutions segment to decline as our Idaho and Maine contracts commence full operations, we nevertheless believe that the operating profit margin percentage of that segment will remain significantly greater than that of the Health Plans segment, albeit on a much lower revenue base. Additionally, the capital requirements of the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment are except in the case of new contract start-ups considerably less than those of our Health Plans segment. Regulatory approval is not required for the Molina Medicaid Solutions segment to pay dividends to us.
