We relentlessly challenge ourselves to partner and innovate solutions for better health. The Cigna Group includes products and services marketed under Evernorth Health Services, Cigna Healthcare, or its subsidiaries. The Cigna Group maintains sales capabilities in more than 30 markets and jurisdictions, and has over 185 million customer relationships around the world. Learn more at thecignagroup.com.Notes:1. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is a principal financial measure of profitability used by The Cigna Group's management because it presents the underlying results of operations of the Company's businesses and facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue, expenses and shareholders' net income. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is defined as shareholders' net income (or income before income taxes less pre-tax income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the segment metric) excluding net investment gains/losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and special items. The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting are also excluded. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of normal, recurring operations due to their nature or size. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is measured on an after-tax basis for consolidated results and on a pre-tax basis for segment results. Consolidated adjusted income (loss) from operations is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, shareholders' net income. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income. 
2. Management is not able to provide a reconciliation of adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income, on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict, without unreasonable effort, certain components thereof including (i) future net investment results and (ii) future special items. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond The Cigna Group's control. As such, any associated estimate and its impact on shareholders' net income and total revenues could vary materially. 
The Company's outlook excludes the potential effects of any other business combinations that may occur after the date of this earnings release. The Company's outlook includes the potential effects of expected future share repurchases and anticipated 2026 dividends.
The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternate uses of capital. The share repurchase program may be effected through open market purchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, or privately negotiated transactions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
3. Adjusted revenues is used by The Cigna Group's management because it facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue. The Company defines adjusted revenues as total revenues excluding the following adjustments: special items and The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of normal, recurring operations due to their nature or size. We exclude these items from this measure because management believes they are not indicative of past or future underlying performance of the business. Adjusted revenues is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, total revenues. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted revenues to total revenues. 
4. On March 19, 2025, the company completed the sale (the "HCSC transaction") of its Medicare Advantage, Medicare Individual Stand-Alone Prescription Drug Plans, Medicare and Other Supplemental Benefits, and CareAllies businesses to Health Care Services Corporation ("HCSC").
5. Operating ratios are defined as follows:The Cigna Healthcare medical care ratio ("MCR") represents medical costs as a percentage of premiums for all Cigna Healthcare risk products provided through guaranteed cost or experience-rated funding arrangements. Changes in percentages may be expressed in basis points ("bps").SG&A expense ratio on a GAAP basis for the first quarter 2026 represents enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,722 million as a percentage of total revenue of $68.5 billion at a consolidated level. SG&A expense ratio on a GAAP basis for the first quarter 2025 represents enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $4,213 million as a percentage of total revenue of $65.5 billion at a consolidated level.Adjusted SG&A expense ratio for the first quarter 2026 represents enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,321 million excluding special items of $401 million as a percentage of adjusted revenue at a consolidated level. Adjusted SG&A expense ratio for the first quarter 2025 represents enterprise selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,799 million excluding special items of $414 million as a percentage of adjusted revenue at a consolidated level.6. Customer relationships are defined as follows:Total medical customers includes individuals who meet any one of the following criteria: (i) are covered under a medical insurance policy, managed care arrangement, or administrative services agreement issued by Cigna Healthcare; (ii) have access to Cigna Healthcare's provider network for covered services under their medical plan; or (iii) have medical claims that are administered by Cigna Healthcare.7. Margin, pre-tax, is calculated by dividing adjusted income (loss) from operations, pre-tax by adjusted revenues for each segment.8. The Cigna Group owns noncontrolling interests in certain operating joint ventures. As such, the adjusted revenues for the Cigna Healthcare segment only include the Company's share of the joint ventures' earnings reported in Fees and Other Revenues using the equity method of accounting under GAAP. Set forth below is a table that presents the impact of the HCSC transaction on Cigna Healthcare Adjusted Revenues for the periods presented. Management believes that the presentation of this measure is useful to investors because it permits a comparison of the Company's go-forward business across periods.Financial Results (dollars in millions):

BLOOMFIELD, Conn., April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Cigna Group (NYSE:CI), a global health company, today joined leading health plans in a commitment to standardize electronic prior authorization submission requirements for commonly reviewed medical services, a step that will accelerate patients' access to care and simplify administrative work for providers and their teams.







By the end of this year, the company expects that this standard approach will apply to medical services representing more than 70% of prior authorization volume, and additional services will be added on a rolling basis."We want patients to get the care they need when they need it, and we want doctors and teams to be able to focus on patients—not paperwork," said Dr. Amy Flaster, Chief Medical Officer, The Cigna Group. "We are leading much-needed improvements to make prior authorization clearer and more consistent. While this is important progress, we know there's more to do as we continue our journey to deliver a simpler, more personalized health care experience to all those we serve."This advances the company's commitments to make care simpler and easier to navigate for patients and providers. The Cigna Group has already reduced the overall volume of medical prior authorizations by approximately 15 percent, making it easier for patients to access care and reducing paperwork for providers.The initiative also represents the latest milestone in the health plan industry's voluntary, multi-year commitments made in partnership with HHS and CMS to streamline and simplify the prior authorization process, and will help support the acceleration of real-time electronic approvals.  About The Cigna GroupThe Cigna Group (NYSE:CI) is a global health company committed to creating a better future built on the vitality of every individual and every community.

The Cigna Group Foundation Invites Memphis-Area Nonprofits to Apply for $250,000 Grants to Improve Health Care AccessApril 16, 2026 2:47 PM
PR Newswire (US)

Nonprofits can apply through May 15 for two-year grants supporting community–led solutions to reduce barriers to healthLEARN MORE AND APPLY HEREMEMPHIS, Tenn., April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Building on years of community investment and employee volunteerism across Tennessee, The Cigna Group Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI), today announced the expansion of its Impact Fund to Memphis. The expansion reflects the Foundation's continued focus on advancing population health by complementing prior investments in youth and veteran mental health and addressing additional barriers that shape long–term health and well–being. 







"We're proud to support communities across Tennessee, home to thousands of our employees and their families," said Ellie Polack, president of The Cigna Group Foundation. "Through our philanthropy, local partnerships, and employee volunteerism, we've helped make a meaningful impact statewide. Now, we're building on that commitment by deepening partnerships in Memphis to reduce barriers to health, and we look forward to continuing our work to improve health access for individuals and families across Tennessee."How Memphis Organizations Can Get Involved
The deadline to apply is May 15, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. ET. Selected nonprofits will be notified about the next steps in the process.  Grant terms begin Dec. 1, 2026, and run through Dec. 1, 2028. Eligible nonprofits may apply for $250,000 in funding over two years to support projects focused on adults in one or more of the following areas:Increase access to affordable primary care services.Increase access to healthy foods, nutrition education, and healthy lifestyle activities.Interested organizations can review eligibility requirements and submit an interest form online.In addition to receiving grant funding, nonprofits will be invited to participate in an annual convening with Foundation representatives and health experts to collaborate, share insights, and strengthen collective impact. Progress achieved through the Fund will be reported externally, with impact measured across outcomes related to utilization of primary care services and access to healthy foods, nutrition education and healthy lifestyle activities.About the Fund
The Fund supports community-based organizations working to address the social drivers of health and improve health outcomes. Since 2024, The Foundation has invested more than $6 million in 29 nonprofit organizations in Connecticut, Missouri, and Texas through the newly established Fund.By launching the Fund in Memphis, The Foundation aims to partner locally to help strengthen access to care, improve well-being, and support communities that have historically faced barriers to good health.Research indicates that many Memphis residents experience higher rates of chronic conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease, and face barriers to accessing affordable primary care. These challenges are often compounded by a shortage of primary care providers, transportation barriers to medical visits, and limited access to healthy, affordable food — factors that can delay care and contribute to poorer long–term health outcomes.Building on a Strong Commitment to Tennessee CommunitiesThe Cigna Group Foundation and related charitable efforts directed nearly $1.8 million in support across Tennessee in 2025. In the same period, more than 4,800 Tennessee–based employees volunteered over 6,700 hours with local organizations across the state, including Girls on the Run Memphis, Le Bonheur Children's Hospital, Mid–South Food Bank, and the YMCA of Memphis & the Mid–South.Through Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Health Services, The Cigna Group supports hundreds of thousands of Tennesseans through a combination of health benefits, pharmacy services, and care support. Evernorth pharmacies help individuals across the state manage complex and chronic conditions through medication support, convenient home delivery, and efforts to reduce avoidable disruptions that can lead to poorer health outcomes.Evernorth's Accredo Specialty Pharmacy supports patients living with complex and chronic conditions, such as endocrine disorders, hepatitis C, HIV, bleeding disorders, rare diseases and more. In Memphis specifically, Accredo has a team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, patient care advocates, and more, who are all focused on helping individuals live healthier lives.About The Cigna GroupThe Cigna Group (NYSE:CI) is a global health company committed to creating a better future built on the vitality of every individual and every community.

Housing instability can compound stress, disrupt access to care, and make it harder to manage mental health challenges. With more than $3 million invested across 10 states, The Cigna Group Foundation grantees helped deliver 12 new homes and 116 housing modifications for veterans with disabilities — and achieved positive outcomes for nearly all veterans receiving housing assistance or securing permanent or transitional housing."Our role is to partner with trusted local organizations that understand the realities on the ground," said Ellie Polack, president, The Cigna Group Foundation.

AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of The Cigna Group and Its SubsidiariesMarch 4, 2026 5:40 PM
Business Wire
AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings (Long-Term ICR) of “a+” (Excellent) of the key U.S. life/health subsidiaries and Europe-based insurance companies of The Cigna Group (Cigna) (headquartered in Bloomfield, CT) [NYSE: CI]. The majority of Cigna’s core U.S. health insurance entities are collectively referred to as Cigna Life & Health Group.


In addition, AM Best has affirmed the Long-Term ICR of “bbb+” (Good) and the Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings (Long-Term IR) of Cigna. AM Best also has affirmed the Short-Term Issue Credit Rating (Short-Term IR) of Cigna. The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable. (Please see below for a detailed listing of the companies and ratings.)


The ratings reflect Cigna Life & Health Group’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strong, as well as its strong operating performance, favorable business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM).


Cigna Life & Health Group’s ratings continue to recognize its strongest level of risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR). The group’s balance sheet remains a core strength, characterized by strong liquidity and financial flexibility. Cigna Life & Health Group’s invested assets are held predominantly in investment grade fixed income securities and cash/cash equivalents, while maintaining moderate exposure to commercial mortgage-backed securities, private issues and below investment grade securities.


AM Best notes that Cigna Life & Health Group’s balance sheet strength assessment continues to be impacted by Cigna’s elevated financial leverage of just over 43%, as measured by AM Best, as well as its very high level of goodwill and intangible assets. Cigna’s debt service is supported by its strong earnings and dividends from the group’s insurance entities, as well as solid non-regulated earnings from its Evernorth Health Services segment. Cigna’s earnings before interest and taxes interest coverage remains good at over six times for 2025. Nevertheless, goodwill and intangibles assets remain high at approximately 176% of shareholder equity. The high goodwill/intangibles are predominantly related to non-insurance operations, Evernorth Health Services, contributes material non- regulated cash flow, stable earnings and substantial business diversification for Cigna. Cigna has reported strong operating cash flows through 2025. Cigna has excellent financial flexibility supported by parent company cash, insurance subsidiary dividend capacity, non-regulated cash flow, a commercial paper program and a $6.5 billion revolving credit agreement.


Cigna Life & Health Group has reported a solid level of revenue and operating earnings in its business segments over the last several years, driven by a high membership base and premium rate increases. The group’s revenues are geographically diversified across the United States, which supports the organization's operational strength. The sale of Cigna Group’s Medicare and CareAllies businesses in 2025 is expected to drive a decrease in overall revenues. Cigna Life & Health Group has consistently reported high levels of earnings and solid levels of return-on-equity measures among its peers. AM Best also notes that Cigna Life & Health Group continues to operate under a lower risk model as a majority of its business is commercial group health business with a high portion operated under self-funded/administrative services only employer group contracts. Earnings from the insurance operations have been driven largely by the group’s core commercial segment. AM Best expects Cigna Life & Health Group’s operating performance to remain favorable with possible improvement from the sale of its Medicare business, which had been a drag on earnings.


The organization continues to maintain a strong market presence in its core commercial employer health products in the United States. Through its affiliated noninsurance service entities, Cigna provides pharmacy benefit management services, as well as a comprehensive suite of solutions for complex and chronic conditions to drive down the cost of care. Furthermore, Cigna has expanded its customer base through cross-selling opportunities via the Evernorth Health Services arm, with further opportunity for premium, revenue and earnings growth for the overall organization.


The organization has a comprehensive ERM program with mature governance. The program is integrated into day-to-day operations and strategic business planning. Each business unit has its own heat map, which rolls up to an enterprise-level heat map. The organization also employs a formal risk appetite statement that includes key principles and key tolerances and limits. Cigna utilizes economic capital modeling and stress testing.


The ratings reflect CIGNA Life Insurance Company of Europe S.A.-N.V.’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile, appropriate ERM and support from Cigna.


The ratings reflect CIGNA Global Insurance Company Limited’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile, appropriate ERM and support from Cigna.

He strategically expanded and shaped the portfolio – from a traditional insurer, serving 46 million customers and generating $18 billion of annual revenue to a global health company, serving 180 million customer relationships and growing annual revenue to $275 billion. As a result of this transformation, the company's total shareholder return increased by more than 750%. We are pleased that The Cigna Group will continue to benefit from David's insights and experience as Executive Chair."Cordani and Evanko will work closely during the transition period through July 1, 2026, when Evanko will assume the role of CEO and Cordani will become Executive Chair of the Board.Cordani concluded, "Leading The Cigna Group has been the privilege of a lifetime. I am especially proud of how our team has worked to build a stronger future—not just for today, but for the next generation. By focusing on the customer, delivering value, and driving positive change, we are making a difference, one person at a time."Reaffirmed Financial OutlookThe Company is reaffirming projected full year 2026 consolidated adjusted income from operations of at least $30.25 per share. The Company is also reaffirming 2026 Evernorth pre-tax adjusted income from operations of at least $6.9 billion, and Cigna Healthcare pre-tax adjusted income from operations of at least $4.5 billion.DisclosuresAdjusted income (loss) from operations is a principal financial measure of profitability used by The Cigna Group's management because it presents the underlying results of operations of The Cigna Group's businesses and facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue, expenses and shareholders' net income (loss). Adjusted income (loss) from operations is defined as shareholders' net income (loss) (or income (loss) before income taxes less pre-tax income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the segment metric) excluding net investment gains/losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and special items. The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting are also excluded. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of operations due to their nature or size. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is measured on an after-tax basis for consolidated results and on a pre-tax basis for segment results. Consolidated adjusted income (loss) from operations is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, shareholders' net income (loss).Management is not able to provide a reconciliation of adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income (loss) (including on a per share basis) on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict, without unreasonable effort, certain components thereof including (i) future net investment results and (ii) future special items. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond The Cigna Group's control. As such, any associated estimate and its impact on shareholders' net income and total revenues could vary materially.CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTSThis press release and oral statements made with respect to information contained in this press release, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Cigna Tops Q4 Profit Estimates as Revenue Growth Beats ExpectationsFebruary 5, 2026 6:22 AM
IH Market News
Cigna (NYSE:CI) reported stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter results, with adjusted operating earnings reaching $8.08 per share, surpassing Bloomberg consensus forecasts of $7.88 per share.The health insurer posted adjusted revenue of $72.50 billion for the quarter, representing a 10% increase compared with the same period a year earlier and exceeding analyst expectations of $69.53 billion.Cigna’s medical care ratio — which reflects the portion of insurance premiums spent on healthcare services — stood at 88% for the quarter. This compares with 87.9% in the prior year and was slightly above market expectations of 87.4%. A higher ratio generally indicates that a greater share of premium income is being directed toward medical costs rather than administrative expenses or profit.Looking ahead, Cigna forecast adjusted operating earnings of at least $30.25 per share for fiscal 2026, alongside projected adjusted revenue of approximately $280 billion. The company expects its full-year medical care ratio to fall within a range of 83.0% to 84.7%.Cigna shares edged slightly higher in premarket U.S. trading on Thursday following the earnings release.Cigna Group stock price

Adjusted income (loss) from operations is a principal financial measure of profitability used by The Cigna Group's management because it presents the underlying results of operations of the Company's businesses and facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue, expenses and shareholders' net income. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is defined as shareholders' net income (or income before income taxes less pre-tax income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the segment metric) excluding net investment gains/losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and special items. The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting are also excluded. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of operations due to their nature or size. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is measured on an after-tax basis for consolidated results and on a pre-tax basis for segment results. Consolidated adjusted income (loss) from operations is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, shareholders' net income. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income. 2. Management is not able to provide a reconciliation of adjusted income from operations to shareholders' net income, on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict, without unreasonable effort, certain components thereof including (i) future net investment results and (ii) future special items. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond The Cigna Group's control. As such, any associated estimate and its impact on shareholders' net income and total revenues could vary materially.  The Company's outlook excludes the potential effects of any other business combinations that may occur after the date of this earnings release. The Company's outlook includes the potential effects of expected future share repurchases and anticipated 2026 dividends.The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternate uses of capital. The share repurchase program may be effected through open market purchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, or privately negotiated transactions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.3. Adjusted revenues is used by The Cigna Group's management because it facilitates analysis of trends in underlying revenue. The Company defines adjusted revenues as total revenues excluding the following adjustments: special items and The Cigna Group's share of certain investment results of its joint ventures reported in the Cigna Healthcare segment using the equity method of accounting. Special items are matters that management believes are not representative of the underlying results of operations due to their nature or size. We exclude these items from this measure because management believes they are not indicative of past or future underlying performance of the business. Adjusted revenues is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, total revenues.

VINCENT COUNTRY SAFE ZONE ACTIVITY DAY PRESENTED BY CIGNA HEALTHCARE DELIVERS SUPER BOWL WEEK FUN, NFL FLAG FOOTBALL, AND WELLNESS TO OAKLAND STUDENTSFebruary 3, 2026 8:17 PM
PR Newswire (US)

Corporate, Nonprofit, and Philanthropic Partners Collaborated to Provide Transformative Experiences and Lasting Resources at Burckhalter Elementary SchoolOAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare, a flagship initiative of Love Thy Neighbor CDC co-founded by NFL Executive and Legend Troy Vincent, Sr. and his wife, author and chef Tommi A. Vincent, took place Tuesday, February 3, at Burckhalter Elementary School in Oakland, CA. The ninth annual event, themed Dreams Grow Here, delivered a full day of fun, food, wellness, and engaging sports activities, including NFL FLAG, for more than 200 Pre-K through fifth-grade students.







The day opened with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting celebrating a collective investment in the future of Burckhalter Elementary School and the unveiling of permanent campus enhancements, including a new soccer turf field, an adaptive agility mat, a fully stocked on-site food pantry, and a community mural. Joined by NFL Legends, current players, and corporate and philanthropic partners, the Vincent family continued to drive meaningful, school-centered impact in Super Bowl host communities. Since its inception, Safe Zone Activity Day has positively impacted more than 4,800 students and 640 educators, contributing nearly $745,000 in funding and critical wish-list resources to participating schools. "For nine years, Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare has been about more than a single moment, it has been about showing students and educators what is possible when a community truly invests in their dreams," said Tommi A. Vincent, co-founder of Love Thy Neighbor CDC. "By supporting the whole child – physically, emotionally, academically, and creatively – and celebrating the educators who guide them every day, we helped create an environment where children felt seen, supported, and inspired.""Our work has always been rooted in the belief that when children feel supported and inspired, their confidence grows, their potential expands, and their dreams begin to take shape," said Troy Vincent, Sr., NFL Executive and co-founder of Love Thy Neighbor CDC. "Bringing together NFL Legends, current players, and committed corporate and philanthropic partners during Super Bowl week allowed us to deliver meaningful, lasting impact for students and schools in this community."Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare brought together an extraordinary coalition of corporate, nonprofit, and philanthropic partners to deliver a full-spectrum experience supporting student wellness, education, and long-term opportunity. Cigna Healthcare activities included game stations for the kids; free health screenings and skin cancer checks in their Wellness In Motion mobile clinic for parents, faculty and the community; free eye exams and glasses for the children courtesy of Cigna Healthcare Vision; and mind-body wellness activations for students and staff led by the company's Evernorth Behavioral Health team."Since day one, we have proudly teamed up with Vincent Country on their Safe Zone Activity Day, united by our shared goal of improving the health and vitality of children, educators, and local communities," said Eric Sodergren, Senior Vice President of National Accounts at Cigna Healthcare. "From preventive health and vision screenings to mental wellness, we are offering access to care and early intervention essential to helping young people reach their full potential. We are honored to continue investing in communities alongside the Vincent family and partners who share our commitment."New partner, the Playing for Keeps Association made a transformational investment in Burckhalter Elementary School by supporting the installation of its first-ever full-size turf soccer field - creating the only dedicated green space on campus - and by providing an agility mat designed to support inclusive movement and physical development. Together, these improvements will give students a safe place to play, run, and be active, while ensuring that students in the special needs community have access to adaptive resources that support coordination, confidence, and joyful participation in physical activity."Every child deserves a safe place to move, play, and simply be a kid," said Dr. Mimi Nartey, President of the Playing for Keeps Association. "By bringing the first-ever full-size turf soccer field to Burckhalter Elementary School – and by providing a play-based agility mat designed to support inclusive movement – we are investing in an environmentally and economically sustainable play space that serves the full diversity of this campus. These play spaces will provide consistent, high-quality access to daily movement, confidence-building, and joy – while reducing long-term maintenance demands and maximizing the impact of limited school resources. We're proud to partner with Troy and Tommi Vincent and the Safe Zone Activity Day community to help create a space where energy, imagination and opportunity can thrive."Zebra Technologies, an early and long-standing Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day partner, continues to support student learning and creative expression through meaningful investments that leave a lasting presence at the school, including a permanent mural created by a local artist which was showcased at the start of the day."As one of Safe Zone Activity Day's longest partners, Zebra Technologies is thrilled to join Troy and Tommi Vincent in their commitment to support student learning and strengthen school communities," said Bill Burns, CEO of Zebra Technologies. "By providing books for student backpacks and partnering with a local muralist to create a permanent work of art unveiled at the start of the day, we aim to leave behind a meaningful expression of creativity, inspiration, and pride that will resonate with students and educators for years to come. Giving back and making a positive impact in local communities is core to Zebra's culture and values, and we are honored to be part of the incredible legacy of Safe Zone Activity Day."Stand Together, a philanthropic community that helps America's boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country's biggest issues, is in its second year of partnership with Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare. This year, Stand Together provided support through connections with groups in the community that help students and families overcome challenges, on-the-ground volunteering, and by producing content that shares the stories of how programs like these help people, to inspire others to get engaged."When kids are seen, supported, and encouraged, entire communities are strengthened," said Brian Hooks, Chairman and CEO of Stand Together. "We are grateful to partner with Troy and Tommi Vincent to show what's possible when you believe in people."Stand Together and Cigna Healthcare supported the participation of the Kevin Love Fund who provided mental health resources focused on equity, education, and reducing stigma around mental wellness for the teachers.With a focus on working together to end community hunger, Chick-fil-A, Inc., a second-year partner of Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare, teamed with local Owner-Operator Jon Hooper to provide boxed meals for students, faculty, staff, and volunteers, while also donating a fully stocked on-site food pantry accessible to the Burckhalter Elementary School community. Ongoing support for the pantry will be sustained through a partnership with the San Francisco 49ers and Safeway, extending the impact beyond the event day and helping address both immediate nourishment and long-term food security needs."At Chick-fil-A, caring for communities is rooted in our purpose, and we're honored to be a part of Safe Zone Activity Day by serving students, educators, and volunteers with Love Thy Neighbor CDC," said Brent Fielder, Vice President of Global Impact at Chick-fil-A, Inc. "In providing meals and supporting the donation of an on-site food pantry, we hope to meet both immediate needs and create a lasting resource for families to strengthen this school community."Infinite Athlete, a long-standing partner of Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare continued its support this year with a financial contribution designed to meet the evolving needs of the Burckhalter Elementary School community. Having previously donated playground and recreational equipment, Infinite Athlete's investment this year provides the school with flexible resources to allocate where they are needed most, reinforcing the program's commitment to meaningful, school-centered impact in Super Bowl host communities. "Our partnership with Vincent Country is rooted in shared values around equity, access, and long-term community investment," said Annie Gerhart-Ramsay, Co-founder and COO, Infinite Athlete. "By providing flexible support this year, we're helping ensure Burckhalter Elementary has the resources it needs to serve students in meaningful and lasting ways, today at Safe Zone Activity Day and beyond."Google joined as a new partner this year and engaged students throughout the day with hands-on STEM learning experiences designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving skills, while also offering students a future field trip to its local headquarters to further explore technology and innovation. "At Google, we believe early exposure to STEM helps students build confidence, curiosity, and critical problem-solving skills," said Yolanda Washington, Lead Senior Program Manager, Talent Resilience & Community Engagement at Google. "We're excited to join Safe Zone Activity Day by engaging students in hands-on STEM experiences that introduce them to technology in creative and accessible ways. By extending this experience beyond the classroom through a future visit to our headquarters, we hope to inspire students to imagine new possibilities for their learning and their futures."First year partner Under Amour provided gear for volunteers and staff, as well as backpacks and gear for all Burckhalter Elementary School students. "We are honored to partner with Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day to continue to show our support for students in Oakland," said Flynn Burch, Under Armour Director of Global Community Impact & UA Next. "With our on-going engagement in Oakland Unified Schools and Oakland Athletic League – this opportunity reaffirms our commitment to these students to ensure they feel supported, garner confidence and reach their greatest potential on the field, in the classroom, and in the community."Students at Burckhalter Elementary School participated in team-building activities through a fun, competitive, and inclusive NFL FLAG experience played on the school's newly installed soccer turf field. Led by NFL Global Flag Football Ambassador Bobby Taylor — an NFL Legend and 10-year veteran of the Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks — the activation reflected the league's continued investment in youth participation and access to the game. The new turf field serves as a permanent campus enhancement designed to support year-round student recreation and wellness. During Super Bowl week, NFL FLAG programming at Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare underscored flag football as a cornerstone of the sport's future, expanding access for thousands of schools, communities, and families nationwide."We are truly honored and grateful that Vincent Country selected Burckhalter Elementary School as this year's Safe Zone Activity Day school," said Carin Geathers, Principal of Burckhalter Elementary School. "The generosity of Troy and Tommi Vincent, along with the many partners who came together, has transformed our campus and provided our students and educators with critical resources that will have a lasting impact. From health and wellness support to learning materials and creative spaces that inspire pride and possibility, this day represents what is possible when a community rallies around its children and invests in their future."NFL Legend and Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day coach Eddie Mason once again facilitated the exercise challenges and was joined again by famed choreographer and producer Markus Shields who led the dance fitness fun, along with Troy Vincent, Sr., Takeo Spikes, and a host of volunteers including NFL staff, RISE, and a host of HBCU undergraduate and graduate students from around the country.Following Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare and school dismissal, educators, faculty, and staff at Burckhalter Elementary School gathered on campus for a dedicated Faculty and Staff Empowerment Session designed to support leadership, well-being, and professional growth. Sponsored by Chase, the session featured an empowerment speaker and leadership coach who engaged educators in reflection, inspiration, and practical tools to support both personal and professional resilience. Participants enjoyed a catered luncheon by San Francisco-based Old Skool Cafe, creating space for connection, appreciation, and restoration at the close of the day."Educators are the foundation of every school community, and supporting them is essential to student success," said Oscar Lopez, Chase's Senior Business Consultant in Oakland. "At Chase, we recognize that strong schools and dedicated educators are key to thriving communities and long-term growth. We're proud to sponsor the Faculty and Staff Empowerment Session to invest in the well-being and leadership of those who shape our future—and our economy."Later in the week, the Vincent's will host their signature luncheon Stay A While: Breaking Bread with the Vincents. Tommi Vincent, also known as Chef Tommi V., will collaborate with Oakland chef and entrepreneur – Chef Christina "Lala" Harrison. Together they will showcase their culinary talents while celebrating school leadership and thanking corporate sponsors.Continuing this year is the virtual fundraising component that accompanies Vincent Country Safe Zone Activity Day Presented by Cigna Healthcare where additional funds and "wish list" items are raised to further benefit Burckhalter Elementary School.

The Cigna Group Foundation Opens 2026 Youth Mental Health Grant Program To Support Youth, Families and CommunitiesFebruary 3, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)

With youth mental health challenges at an all-time high, The Cigna Group Foundation's multiyear grant program addresses a critical need for community-based solutions to support kids and teensBLOOMFIELD, Conn., Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Cigna Group Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI), has opened its 2026 Improving Youth Mental Health grant program.  Nonprofit organizations are invited to apply now through March 12 at 5:00 pm ET. With youth mental health challenges rising nationwide, The Cigna Group Foundation seeks to partner with community-based organizations that can deliver meaningful, evidence-informed support to young people (ages 5–18) and the adults who care for them, such as parents, caregivers, teachers and coaches.







"Young people across the country continue to face mental health challenges at levels we've never experienced before, and we view this as a moment to respond with urgency and compassion," said Ellie Polack, President, The Cigna Group Foundation. "By investing in community organizations that specialize in social-emotional learning, trauma-informed care, and family–school partnerships, we can help ensure more kids get the support they need, when they need it."Focused funding for programs that make a differenceThis year, all grant requests must total $150,000, reflecting the Foundation's commitment to deeper, more concentrated impact. The Foundation is especially interested in applications that strengthen:Social-emotional learning (SEL) programs in schools and afterschool settingsTrauma-informed services, ensuring kids receive support tailored to their life experiencesFamily–school partnerships that help adults and children work together toward healthier outcomesEligible organizations must provide services in at least one of the Foundation's ten priority states: Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Texas.Building on a multiyear commitmentThe grant program is part of The Cigna Group Foundation's $9 million, three-year commitment to improve youth mental health.  This program has already committed more than $7 million to 53 nonprofit organizations across two grant cycles. In the first grant term alone, nonprofits reported reaching over 34,000 youth, families, and professionals in underserved communities with the additional support from The Cigna Group.According to an analysis by The Cigna Group's Evernorth Research Institute, the number of young people with mental health conditions has increased 28% since 2018, and the number of youth with at least two mental health diagnoses has risen 48% over the same period. More than two out of three young people will experience trauma by age 16, and inadequate levels of social and emotional functioning are increasingly recognized as central to many public health problems. How to applyOrganizations serving youth in diverse communities are especially encouraged to apply. Interested nonprofits can visit The Cigna Group Foundation's website to review program requirements and the application.About The Cigna Group Foundation: The Cigna Group Foundation is a private foundation funded by contributions from The Cigna Group (NYSE:CI) and its subsidiaries.

$CI ANTHEM AND MEDICARE HAVE PRODUCED A DARK CLOUD ABOVE CIGNA

From a fundamental perspective, this entire sector will be used as a pawn within the political parties to gain favor with the electorate until after the 2020 election, that is quite a while to wait for a safe entry point or maybe not. Cigna is also embroiled in a long suffering court case with NYSE:ANTM claiming THAT ANTM should pay compensation of $16 billion for the botched takeover in 2015. IF CI was to win the case it would be extraordinary but most likely they will be awarded the break up of fee of $1.84 billion.
From a technical point of view the chart is becoming quite interesting and suggesting a entry point may be on the way. Please consult the chart for analysis but a break and possible retest of the trend-line(blue) would be a good buy signal.

Analysts have high price target even if they do screw their customers. Like 230 on average for Cigna Holdings which us currently below 160 due to that plummet down from 200 earlier this year. I guess screwing the customers is how some companies make money lol. One of my stock brokerages just stole $500.00 out of my account. I tried FINRA, no help. I tried a courthouse, no help. I will next try a second courthouse or a lawyer. But man, they better put the money back.

They are screwing over 165 million customers or something like that

I'm wondering, is it mostly just a net income issue - their CEO just gave a great presentation for First Quarter 2019 and for projections. They are serving over 165 million customers or something like that and they have like 800,000 serviced or something, and nice earnings growth and projected. So why did the stock drop almost 3%, is it just profits?

Watch This Trade Level For This Leading Heath Insurance Stock $CI

Today, many of the leading health insurance providers are coming under sharp selling pressure. The catalyst for the decline in the industry group seems to be related to a proposal from Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) who wants Medicare for all. Leading heath insurance stocks such as Cigna Corp (NYSE:CI), UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:UNH), Humana Inc (NYSE:HUM), WellCare Health Plans Inc (WCG:NYSE) and others are trading deeply in negative territory this afternoon.

Over the next week or so I will be watching Cigna Corp (NYSE:CI) closely. The stock is currently testing a key daily chart support level around the $180.00 area. A break of this important support level could lead to further downside in the stock. Traders should watch for major chart support around the $170.00 area. This is where the stock was defended in July 2018 after forming a bearish basing pattern. Often, when stocks rally from a negative pattern that is a sign of institutional sponsorship. I will be keeping this swing trade level on my radar in the near term.

Cigna Says New York, California OK Express Scripts Deal (12/13/18)
On December 13, 2018, the State of New York determined that a previously noticed hearing in that State was not required and issued its approval of the transaction. Also on December 13, 2018, the State of California issued its approval of the transaction. We continue to work with regulators in New Jersey, the one outstanding state where approval is required, and continue to expect that the transaction will close by the end of 2018, subject to the satisfaction of all closing conditions.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/701221/000095015918000529/cigna8k.htm

The Express Scripts/Cigna deal is in the final stages.

ESRX shareholders will receive $48.75 in cash and .2424 shares of CI per share.

Cigna and Express Scripts have extended the Termination Date from 12/06/18 to 6/08/19.

Both firms continue to anticipate that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will close in 2018, subject to the satisfaction of all closing conditions.

Yep just may well have missed the boat, no matter. Back to other things. GLA

May have missed this boat already, we'll see.

This thing is starting to feel good for an entry what is the consensus, was thinking about trying to get closer to $145-150 but its looking like this is wanting to stop the downward momentum so maybe like $160'sh it hasn't totally turned yet but I think it just may test $160 and then it goes up and stays up or do you think $163 was the bounce point, whats the opinion here? I feel it is still gonna test $160 or below, we shall see.

Call Option Trade On CIGNA Corporation $CI

Shares of CIGNA Corporation (NYSE:CI) are falling sharply today after they announced a buyout of Express Scripts Holding Company (NASDAQ:ESRX). Investors are taking the buyout as a sharp negative for shares, likely a signal big money thinks they overpaid. Whatever the case, the stock is falling over 11%, but gives investors waiting for an entry a buying opportunity. There is a pivot to $170.00. I will look to pick up some calls here.

The Bezos, Buffett & Dimon Announcement Crushes Health Care Stocks

This morning, almost every leading health care stock is coming under major selling pressure. The weakness in the health care stocks comes after an announcement was made by Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) boss Jeff Bezos, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.a) boss Warren Buffett and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) Chairman Jamie Dimon announced Tuesday morning that they are "partnering on ways to address healthcare for their U.S. employees, with the aim of improving employee satisfaction and reducing costs." Leading health care stocks such as UnitedHealth (NYSE:UNH), Aetna (NYSE:AET), Cigna Corp (NYSE:CI), Humana Inc (NYSE:HUM), Express Scripts Holdings Co (NASDAQ:ESRX), CVS Health (NYSECVS), and others are tumbling on the announcement.

As a trader we must look at this decline in the health care stocks as a trading opportunity. Cignal Corp (CI) is an equity that is now on my radar. The daily chart is showing very good support around the $205.00 level. This is where the stock formed a solid chart base in late December before breaking out to new highs. Often, a retest of this area will lead to a solid bounce for the stock. I will be finding more levels for other health care stocks in the coming days, but Cigna Corp (CI) is one stock that has caught my eye right now.
