TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 1, 2006, NewQuest, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (NewQuest),
and a wholly owned subsidiary of HealthSpring, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), signed
a letter agreement mutually terminating a Stock Purchase Agreement dated May 30, 2006, with
Americas Health Choice Medical Plans, Inc., a Florida corporation (AHC) and Dr. Walter Janke and
Lalita Janke. The parties agreed to terminate the Stock Purchase
Agreement, relating to the acquisition of AHC stock by NewQuest, after failing to reach
agreement concerning resolution of certain issues arising from NewQuests due diligence
investigation of the operations of AHC and its medical clinic
affiliates. A copy of the letter mutually terminating the Stock Purchase Agreement is
attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
A Management Agreement, dated May 30, 2006, by and between AHC and NewQuest Management of
Florida, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (NMF), and a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, continues in effect. The Management Agreement may be terminated by AHC upon thirty (30)
days prior written notice to NMF or by NMF upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to AHC.
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 2, 2006, the Company issued a press release announcing its earnings
results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006. A copy of the press
release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
The attached press release includes a presentation of certain financial measures not computed
in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The Company
believes that the non-GAAP measures used in the release, when presented in conjunction with
comparable GAAP measures, are useful to both management and investors in analyzing the Companys
ongoing business and operating performance. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in
addition to, but not as a substitute for, items prepared in accordance with GAAP that are presented
in the release. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable
GAAP financial measure has been provided in the release.
