Item 7.01.  Regulation FD Disclosure.

Note: The information furnished herewith pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed by Molina Healthcare, Inc. (the “Company”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.  The furnishing of this report is not intended to constitute a determination by the Company that the information is material or that dissemination of the information is required by Regulation FD.

Uses and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial data provided to potential investors in connection with the Offering (as defined in Item 8.01 of this report) includes non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”). The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are supplemental measures of the Company’s performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”).  The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures are useful supplemental measures to investors in comparing its performance to the performance of other public companies in the health care industry.
 
The Company defines EBITDA as net income adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, transaction costs and other non-cash or non-recurring charges.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:
•
exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to the Company;
•
do not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
•
do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;
•
do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service interest or principal payments on the Company’s debt;
•
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
•
may be calculated differently than other companies in the Company’s industry, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

-2-
In addition to the foregoing, Adjusted EBITDA adjusts for certain exceptional items that reflect cash payments that were made or received, or will be made or received, in the future.
 
Because of these limitations, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of the Company’s business. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using the Non-GAAP Financial Measures only on a supplemental basis.

Molina Healthcare Announces Proposed Offering of $750 Million of Senior Notes Due 2032

LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 1, 2021--Molina Healthcare, Inc. (NYSE: MOH) (the “Company”) today announced that it intends to privately offer, subject to market and other conditions, $750 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2032 (the “Notes”). The Company will make the offering pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The initial purchasers will offer the Notes only to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain persons outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”).

The Notes will not be guaranteed by any of the Company’s subsidiaries at the time of issuance. The interest rate, offering price and other terms of the Notes will be determined by negotiations between the Company and the representative of the initial purchasers. The issuance of the Notes will be subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company intends to use approximately $725 million of the net proceeds from this offering to redeem the entire $700 million outstanding principal amount of its 5.375% senior notes due 2022. The Company intends to use the remaining net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of indebtedness, share repurchases, funding for acquisitions, capital expenditures, additions to working capital and capital contributions to the Company’s health plan subsidiaries to meet statutory requirements in new or existing states.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the benefit of, a U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S) except in transactions exempt from, or not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Notes and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction where such offer, solicitation or sale is prohibited.
