Humana Inc., the 10-K for 2025

Humana was organised as a Delaware corporation in 1964 and is run from Louisville, Kentucky. It sells health insurance and, through CenterWell, delivers health care itself. At the end of 2025 it had about 15 million members in its medical benefit plans and about 4.7 million in specialty products.

The single most important fact about this business

In 2025, 83 percent of Humana's total premiums and services revenue came from contracts with the federal government. Within that, 14 percent came from individual Medicare Advantage contracts in Florida alone, held with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, under which Humana covered about 1.0 million members at the end of the year.

Those two figures together describe a business whose income comes very largely from federal contracts, with a further concentration inside that in one state and one product.

Two segments

Insurance and CenterWell. The filing states that the split is based on a combination of the type of health plan customer and the adjacent businesses built around well-being solutions, sold to its own health plans and to others. The filing states that the chief executive, acting as the chief operating decision maker, uses these groupings and each segment's income from operations to judge performance and allocate resources, mainly through the annual budget and periodic forecast updates.

The products

Medical and specialty insurance products that let members reach health care services mainly through networks of providers Humana has contracted with.

Who it serves

The filing names Medicare and Medicaid participants, families, individuals, military service personnel and communities. Read alongside the federal contract figure, that list is a description of a business built around government health programmes rather than around employers.

How the company describes itself

Humana states that through its insurance services and its CenterWell health care services it makes it easier for the people it serves to achieve their best health, delivering care and service when it is needed.

Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines.
