Specialty and Care Services adjusted pre-tax income growth measures the year-over-year change in issuer-defined pre-tax adjusted income from operations for Evernorth's specialty and care operating segment.
Evernorth reported 22% growth in Specialty and Care Services pre-tax adjusted income from operations in the second quarter of 2026, to $1.054B from $863M.
Profit grew much faster than adjusted revenue
Adjusted revenue increased 4% in the same quarter.
Cigna attributed the stronger income growth primarily to specialty-business growth, higher generic and biosimilar adoption, and operating efficiencies.
The segment contains multiple care businesses
The measure combines specialty pharmacy with other care and service activities, so it should not be treated as a pure specialty-dispensing margin proxy.
