$CVSForm 10-QFiled Aug 5, 2026, 6:33 AM ET0000064803-26-000098Original filing

CVS Health reported Q2 2026 revenues of $106.1 billion, up 7.3% year over year, with net income attributable to CVS Health of $2.98 billion ($2.31 diluted EPS) versus $1.02 billion ($0.80) a year earlier. Operating income rose 97.5% to $4.7 billion, with revenue growth across all four operating segments. The improvement reflects stronger underlying performance — especially in the Aetna-based Health Care Benefits segment, where the medical benefit ratio fell 250 basis points to 87.4% — plus the absence of $833 million in legacy litigation charges recorded in Q2 2025.
