UnitedHealth Group acquired PacifiCare in December 2005 for total consideration of approximately $8.8 billion. The results of operations and financial condition of PacifiCare have been included in UnitedHealth Group’s consolidated financial statements since the respective acquisition date. On January 1, 2006, UnitedHealth Group began providing Medicare Part D prescription drug insurance coverage. The acquisition of PacifiCare and the new Medicare Part D product offering impacts the comparability of first quarter 2006 financial information to the prior year. We adopted FAS 123R as of January 1, 2006 using the modified retrospective transition method, under which all prior period financial statements are required to be restated to recognize compensation cost in the amounts historically disclosed in our consolidated financial statements under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (FAS 123).
