EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

With a price target of $85 through DCF valuation, we have a hold rating for CVS. Though loss of Prime Therapeutics, Tricare, and FEP businesses will result in a decline of more than 40M prescriptions in the near term, we estimate that CVS should leverage its in-house PBM and pharmacy network, and its relationship with Aetna to its advantage.

CVS is strongly entrenched in the pharmacy business and offers clinical/add-on services in addition to its retail business, a business model that will guard CVS against significant loss of revenue in case of Amazon’s entry. So CVS is conveniently positioned to defend its market share and grow as well through innovation and more comprehensive care services.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

CVS Health is a pharmaceutical company headquartered in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. The company has 9986 stores1 across 49 states (only Infusion and Enteral services in Wyoming) in the US and in Brazil as of December 31, 2016.

The company reports under two major segments namely Retail Pharmacy and Pharmacy Services. Under Retail Pharmacy, 75% of the revenue is from the sale of Prescription Drugs and 25% is from the other three sub-segments namely General Merchandise & Other, OTC and Personal Care and Beauty/Cosmetics. Overall, the retail segment contributes 46% of the total revenues with 55% coming from Pharmacy Services or PBM as shows in the chart below.

Pharmacy Services The offerings in this segment are more related to the Pharmacy Benefits Manager CVS Caremark. The following

are a brief description of the major services that CVS offers under this segment. Plan Design Offerings Through the above service, CVS helps clients in designing drug plans that satisfy the requirements of the employees’ drug requirements. Formulary Management Formulary is the list of drugs authorized for a client’s employees/members. Inclusion of a drug in the formulary is done with the help of an independent panel of doctors, pharmacists and other medical experts. There are several templates of the formularies comprising of a proper mix of generic and branded drugs. The client chooses one of these templates for its employees1. Medicare Part D Services CVS offers its PBM services in Medicare program under Part D of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (“MMA”). Through this service, CVS provides PBM services the plan members qualified for Medicare Part D prescription drug plans (“PDP”) or Medicare Advantage prescription drug plan (“MA-PD”). SilverScript, a PDP under CVS contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”)1. Mail Order Pharmacy Under this service, CVS provides its plan members with mail order pharmacy services where the members can get their monthly medications over mail. CVS also offers Maintenance Choice, a program in which plan members in most states can elect to fill their maintenance prescriptions at CVS Pharmacy retail stores for the same price as mail order. Maintenance Choice also offers its clients the benefit of filling 90-day prescriptions to avoid frequent ordering1. Specialty Pharmacy Specialty pharmacy segment serves individuals who require complex and expensive drug therapies. These are used to provide assistance to members with chronic or genetic diseases and disorders. These stores operate under the CarePlus CVS Pharmacy and Navarro Health Services, and Coram LLC brands. Specialty Connect product is a combination of specialty pharmacy mail and retail capabilities providing members with disease-state specific counseling and sale of medicines through CVS Pharmacy network. Additionally, with the acquisition of

Omnicare in 2015, CVS expanded its footprint in specialty pharmacy and Long Term Care1. Retail Pharmacy Network Management To service its PBM clients, CVS has contracts with a national network of more than 68,000 retail pharmacies which includes 41,000 chain pharmacies and 27,000 stand-alone pharmacies. This includes services such as verifying clinical appropriateness of the drug for the member taking into account the member’s specific list of drug intake and disease state. Furthermore, the PBM ensures that the dispensed drug is included in the authorized formulary in order for hassle-free payment to the pharmacy-1. Clinical Services CVS also offers clinical programs and services to help its clients manage overall pharmacy and health care costs. The programs are designed to promote good health outcomes by targeting inappropriate utilization and non-adherence to medications1. Medical Pharmacy Management CVS NovoLogix is an online preauthorization tool that helps in cost savings opportunities for specialty drugs and also aids in appropriate drug usage1. The basis of revenue for the PBM business is from two components. The first component is the spread between the rates that PBM charges the employer/member and the price that the PBM pays the pharmacy. The key relationships that need to be considered in this segment of business are that between the Health Insurer/employer and the PBM, and the one between pharmacies and the PBM. In the past and present, CVS has had contracts with major insurance providers such as Anthem, United Health, Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, etc4. Through a bidding process, the insurance providers select those PBMs which are favorable in terms of the pricing structure. In certain scenarios, there are strategic partnerships between PBMs and the health insurers or the health insurer may have a captive PBM under its own parent organization. With regards to pharmacies, CVS has its own network of pharmacy consisting of 9700 retail stores (including the ones inside Target). Caremark also has contracts with a much wider network of around 68,000 pharmacies that include rivals like Walmart, Walgreens, etc. Hence the allocation of contracts to the PBMs happens through a bidding process in which price and strategic relationships are two main factors of consideration.

The second component is the rebate that the CVS gets from drug manufacturers for including the drug in its formulary. Though the PBMs pass-on the benefits from rebate to the insurance provider or plan sponsor, the retention of these rebates also serves as one component of revenue for the PBM4.

Above graph shows the historical and predicted revenue for the Pharmacy Services segment excluding intersegment eliminations. In 2016, this segment had a revenue of $119.6B (including intersegment eliminations) occupying 68% of the total revenue. If intersegment eliminations are excluded, the revenue sums to $96.4B and occupies a share of 55% in total revenue1. From now onwards, all the calculations exclude the intersegment eliminations.

(Source: Company’s 10K, Bloomberg and model projections)

This segment had a 19% growth in 2016 from a revenue of $81.3B in 2015. The Pharmacy Services segment had a gross profit of $5.1B with a gross profit margin of 5.31%. Since 2007, the average gross profit margin is 7% with a consistent decline from 6% in 2013 to 5.3% in 20162. Going ahead, we believe the margin will increase gradually from 5.3% in 2017 to a continuing value of 7% in 2024.

The revenue of this segment is directly proportional to the number of claims processed for its members (shown in the above graph) and average revenue per claim. Caremark processed 1.2B1 claims for around 90M network members3 with an average of 13 claims per member. Since most of the claims are on a monthly basis, this brings us to an understanding that the members who fill their prescriptions in CVS have year-long medications with an average refill of one every month. The total number of claims processed growth is sporadic with a jump in times of new contracts with major health insurers. Otherwise, the growth is mainly driven by the contracts that Caremark makes with individual employers. This business is generally of higher margins and lower volume when compared to the health plan business1. However, the employer-based business has better reliability of revenues as employers usually sign contract with a single PBM at a time whereas the insurance providers employ more than one PBM at a given point of time. Since 2011, the claims processed growth has a geometric mean of around 13% as CVS was successful in forming contracts with major health insurers such as Express Scripts, Prime Therapeutics, Anthem, Aetna (11% of total PBM revenue in 2016). In 2016, claims processed grew at 21.6%. As the claims processed is a direct function of members covered, we have modeled the claims processed growth at 4% in the short-term and have gradually increased it to a continuing value of 6% per year.

(Source: Company’s 10K, Bloomberg and model projections)

Revenue per claim averages to $71 since 2010 with a value of $78 in 201614. The revenue per claim is largely driven by the formulary (list of authorized drugs) that the PBM provides the employer. For generic drugs, the PBMs price the drugs to the employer and the pharmacy based on the Maximum Allowable Cost (MAC) list. The MAC list is generated by the PBM and the PBM reserves rights to change the prices it pays to the pharmacies from time to time17. Moreover, the price that PBMs charge the employers usually differ from the prices mentioned in the MAC list. Since the PBM has complete discretion over the pricing of these generic drugs, it is common for the PBMs to have higher margins (in percentage) for generic drugs compared to brand-name drugs. Branded drugs have a better pricing structure that involves Average Wholesale Price (AWP). AWP is more transparent and uniform across the entire pharmaceutical market18. Hence there is lesser discretion of the PBM involved in determining the prices of brand-name drugs thereby earning a lesser margin on these drugs. Hence revenue per claim is high for brand-name drugs whereas PBMs encourage generic drugs in their formularies. These are the mechanics that impact the overall revenue from all the claims processed. Due to the increasing prevalence of generic drugs, we expect the revenue per claim to decrease by 2% in 2017, stay constant in 2018 and grow by 2% from 2019 onwards.

Retail / LTC Segment

The retail pharmacy segment includes 9,709 retail stores that encompass 7,980 stand-alone pharmacy stores and 1,674 stores within Target that CVS acquired in 2015. As shown in the following diagram, 75% of the products that the store sells is prescription drugs with 11%, 10% and 4%

from General Merchandise, OTC/Personal Care and Beauty/Cosmetics respectively.

(Source: Company’s 10K) Prescription Drugs: The revenue from this sub-segment is mainly driven by the number of prescriptions that a store fills and revenue per prescription filled. Furthermore, the overall revenue is also dependent on the number of stores in existence as a constant number of prescriptions per store with an increasing number of stores still contributes to an overall increase in revenue.

(Source: Company’s 10K, Bloomberg and model projections)

The above chart shows the number of prescriptions filled per store. In 2016, each store filled 126,000 prescriptions which resulted in an overall number of prescriptions of 1,223,5001 across all the stores. As we can see from the graph above, the variability is within a range of ~25,000 prescriptions per store. The number of prescriptions filled is in direct positive correlation with the number of contracts that CVS pharmacy has with the PBMs. Exclusive

contracts with a PBM have a higher inflow of new prescriptions compared to having non-exclusive ones such as the contract that CVS and Walgreens have with OptumRx6. Concentration of stores in places where the PBM’s clients are located also serves as an advantage to the stores. As a result, CVS is in the process of closing down some of its stores in the Mid-West after the loss of Prime Therapeutics contract and focusing more in the southern states. Hence we expect the number of prescriptions per store to decline to 120K in 2017, and increase to 125K by 2019 and stay constant.

(Source: Company’s 10K, Bloomberg and model projections)

The graph above shows the revenue per prescription filled in a CVS store. As it is evident, the revenue per prescription has declined from $54 in 2010 to $50 in 20161. The trend is predominantly attributed to a shift towards generics compared to brand-name drugs. We believe that due to this shift, the revenue per prescription will stay constant till 2018 and gradually increase to a growth rate of 2% by 2024.

Together, these are categorized as front-store revenue. A key component of the strategy is the ExtraCare card program which is being used to build a loyal customer base through targeted marketing and other benefits including the ExtraBucks rewards. CVS attempts to draw more customers through exclusive brand offerings available only in CVS stores. CVS currently carries 7,000 CVS Pharmacy and proprietary brand products, which accounted for 23% of the front store revenue during 20163. Revenue per store of General Merchandise was 0.90M in 2016 and grew at a rate of 3.06%. Going ahead, we have modeled an increase of 3-4% per year and settle at a long term growth rate of 2% by 2024. OTC and personal care had a revenue per store of $0.84M in 2016. In the short term, we expect the revenue per store of this category to grow at 2.5% and settle at a long-term growth rate of 2%. The Beauty/Cosmetics category had a revenue per store of $0.35M with a growth of 4.21%. Going ahead, we expect this category to grow at 3%, reach a peak of 4% in 2019 and settle at a long term growth rate of 2% in 2024.

MinuteClinic As of December 31, 2016, CVS operated 1,139 MinuteClinic locations that includes seven new clinics opened during 2016. The clinics are staffed by nurse practitioners and physician assistants who utilize nationally established guidelines to diagnose and treat minor health conditions, perform health screenings, monitor chronic conditions, provide wellness services and deliver vaccinations. These clinics are a strategic fit to the business model of CVS as it expands the array of offerings that CVS has for the PBMs including its own CVS Caremark. The clinics specialize in providing cost-effective care

thereby eliminating the need to visit expensive care centers such as hospitals for less-serious medical conditions or regular screenings. As a result, visits paid for by employers, health insurers or other third parties accounted for approximately 91% of MinuteClinic’s total revenues in 2016. MinuteClinic is now affiliated with more than 70 major health systems and continues to build a platform that supports primary care. Long-term Care CVS acquired Omnicare in 2015, a network of 143 hub and spoke pharmacies specializing in Long-term Care. Omnicare provides distribution of pharmaceuticals, related pharmacy consulting and other ancillary services to chronic care facilities and other care settings. LTC’s customers consist of skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, independent living communities, hospitals, correctional facilities, and other health care service providers.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Loss of Tricare and Prime Therapeutics

Prime Therapeutics is a confederation of 17 Blue Cross Blue Shield plans with 20M members19. In 2016, Prime Therapeutics, announced a partnership with Walgreens which will result in a loss of 20M members for CVS. Apart from a loss of prescription drugs, CVS also loses the front-store sales that these customers brought along. Tricare is the health insurer for the uniformed service members and is being managed by the Defense Health Agency. Express Scripts is the PBM for Tricare. ESRX announced in October 2016 that it is replacing CVS with Walgreens as the pharmacy network for their members. This meant a loss of 9.4M members that Tricare services. As a result of these two losses, CVS is expected to lose 40M prescriptions3, which we have accounted for in our model. When compared to 1.2B prescriptions, this loss accounts for around 3% of the total prescription drug revenue.

OptumRx Deal

OptumRx is the PBM owned by United Health20. Recently, CVS signed a deal with OptumRx to provide 90-day prescription refills to OptumRx’s members through its Maintenance Choice program. The fact that United Health is the largest US health insurer and a deal with its PBM sounds convincing, the deal is not exclusive and Walgreens

is in a contract as well. Hence this boils down to cost and network penetration of the pharmacy stores instead of a confirmed rise in prescriptions filled.

Cigna Collaboration

Similar to the OptumRx deal, CVS announced a collaboration with Cigna that offers 90-day refills at CVS pharmacy, CVS discount cards and discounts in CVS MinuteClinics for members of Cigna. As Cigna has previously been exclusive with Walmart and Kroger, the deal is clearly beneficial for CVS. We have accounted this effect in our model through the rise of prescription volume.

Partnership with Aetna

The relationship between Aetna and CVS looked a bit strained when Aetna announced its acquisition of Humana. The deal was expected to give Aetna its own PBM. Since the failure of this deal, the relationship between Aetna and CVS has been growing stronger as CVS provides the vertical integration of PBM and pharmacy network to Aetna, a health insurer.

Overlap of CVS and Aetna Presence

(Source: Needham report – CVS3)

The above map shows the overlap between Aetna and CVS. The presence of Aetna is indicated by the highlighted states. It can be seen that CVS has a considerable number of stores in those states where Aetna is present (except Arkansas and a few north-eastern states). We have taken into account this effect while determining the number of prescriptions.

Renewal of Anthem Contract

Anthem is the second largest insurer in the US and a part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield confederation21. Anthem has close to 40M members with revenue of $89B22. Express Scripts has been the PBM for Anthem and the contract ends in December 2019. Hence the new contract begins from 2020 and the complete benefits of the contract, estimated to be $1B in EBITDA should be realized in FY 2020. Since Express Scripts is out of the game, the other two major PBMs involved in the race are OptumRx and CVS Caremark. It is logical to assume that Anthem will not be convenient in letting its largest rival United Health’s PBM OptumRx handle the pharmacy benefit management part of Anthem. So the logical conclusion may have been CVS Caremark. However, with the latest announcement of Walgreens and Prime Therapeutics JV, there is a significant chance for the new collaboration to win the deal. Since Prime Therapeutics is also a part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield family, even the loss of an exclusivity in the contract can be detrimental to CVS. The following graph shows the overlap of Anthem and CVS. The predicted outcome has not been accounted for in the model.

Loss of Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan

Earlier in 2016, the government awarded the Federal Employee Health Benefit plan specialty pharmacy contract to Walgreens/Prime Therapeutics from CVS. This resulted in a loss of 5.4M members and $2.4B in annual revenues7. This jeopardized the more profitable mail order and pharmacy business of FEP. CVS was successful in extending

Page 8

this contract for one more year through 20191. Though there is no imminent threat of loss of this contract, it is important for CVS to make-up for this loss of members and claims by the beginning of 2020.

Second Quarter Earnings

CVS reported its second quarter earnings on August 08, 2017. Revenues increased by 4.5% on a year-on-year basis and free cash flows were $1.6B during the quarter and $4.6B year-to-date. EPS guidance for the fiscal year was narrowed to $5.83-$5.93 from $5.77-$5.93. The company also announced that it successfully completed 70% of client renewals and the retention rate was 97%.

INDUSTRY TRENDS

Acquisitions and Vertical Integration

There are three components to the pharmaceutical industry on the management and retail side. The first component is the health insurer who provides a comprehensive health insurance package to the employer. The insurer then employs a PBM, the second component, to manage the prescription drug part of the business. The role of the PBM is to minimize the cost of drugs for the employer/plan sponsor and the insurer with economies of scale. Due to the significant number of members that a PBM can divert towards a pharmacy, the third component, the PBMs exert significant influence on the choice of drugs consumed by its members. With this unique leverage, PBMs are able to successfully negotiate with the drug manufacturers as well as pharmacies in order to pocket the benefits obtained from reduction in prices. Due to the huge money and significant influence involved, the margins are significantly high thereby attracting other participants of the market to replicate the PBM model and take a share of the profit pie. As a result, almost all the big players in this market have been eyeing at acquisitions to either expand or integrate vertically. The deal between Walgreens and Prime Therapeutics is one such example of vertical integration of a PBM and pharmacy network. United Health and OptumRx is an example of integration of a health insurer and a PBM. Companies such as CVS have their own PBM. Walgreens is in talks to acquire Rite Aid network of pharmacies which also includes its PBM called EnvisionRx16. Hence we expect CVS to acquire a health insurer of the size of Humana with debt, which will certainly increase the leverage of CVS given the fact that CVS has $3.4B cash currently. Though we have not

modeled it now, we believe this is a catalyst for growth and a path towards creating captive members. However, the cost of debt and stability in cash flows created by the acquisition will dictate the intrinsic value of CVS in such a scenario.

Suspected Entry of Amazon

The speculation of Amazon’s entry into the pharma space gained traction as the market saw high level recruitment to manage the company’s pharmacy operations. Then came the hiring of Mark Lyons, an industry expert with ~15 years of experience in Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield23. With Amazon’s acquisition of WholeFoods, Amazon’s retail presence in the brick-and-mortar segment is noteworthy. However, when compared to the number of stores in the network of CVS (around 9,000) and Walgreens (around 12,000), Amazon’s influence may not be significant. However, Amazon may win over the other two companies in the mail order segment. But the fact remains that mail order pharmacy is just 15% of CVS’s total revenue. The impact of Amazon can be judged only after its entry in the pharmaceutical space and the rate of adaptation of people to mail order pharmacy.

With the acquisition of Rite Aid by Walgreens in trouble, Amazon could target the acquisition of Rite Aid’s pharmacy network that consists of around 2,000 stores. If this happens, then Amazon will turn into a considerable threat to CVS and Walgreens.

Health Transformation Alliance

Health Transformation Alliance is a group of 38 large employers / US based corporations that negotiate collectively with the PBMs. They have announced to direct their members’ PBM businesses to CVS Caremark and United Health’s OptumRx. Participation in the HTA is voluntary and is being done to enhance the power of collective bargaining and ensure transparency in the pricing structure. We believe the pricing pressure may have a negative impact on revenue per claim in PBM space.

Rise of Blink Health and GoodRx

With decreasing transparency in pricing of drugs by the PBMs, new companies are on the rise which leverage the imbalanced pricing structure to reduce the drug prices and still earn a profit. Blink Health is one such online drug

Page 9

retailer which enables people to pay for the drugs online and collect them from a nearby pharmacy. Blink Health is accepted in around 68,000 pharmacies24. Blink Health is useful for those members who have a high copay or high deductible so that the reduction in the price of drug significantly reduces the out-of-pocket expenses for the member. For example, Lipitor, a generic drug that is priced around $167 in a regular pharmacy has a price tag of under $1025 in Blink Health. For a member with a deductible of $1000, going to Blink Health makes sense. However, there is one problem associated with Blink Health for those people in the donut hole. The donut hole denotes that range of expenditure in a person’s health insurance in which the charges are not covered by the insurer. The coverage resumes only when the person crosses the maximum payable and moves out of the donut hole. However, as the purchases in Blink Health do not involve the health insurer’s plan, all the expenses made by the person in Blink Health while in the donut hole does not help the person to get out of the hole soon. As a result, the person gets to stay in the donut hole though he/she may have crossed it had the payments been made through the insurer instead of the direct purchase from Blink Health.

Diabetes Rate in US

(Source: Statista Dossier – Diseases13)

Diabetes is one of the most important diseases under consideration as it has the potential to create customers for an entire lifetime. Due to its non-curable nature and with more awareness about effective management of diabetes, it serves as an important factor of revenue. As shown in the previous graph, the number of people diagnosed with diabetes has almost doubled from 12M in 2000 to 23M in 201527.

Total Cases of Diabetes in US

(Source: American Diabetes Association27)

Moreover, according to the graph above which shows the total number of cases diagnosed with diabetes in different age groups from 1994-2010, a trend towards early onset of diabetes is evident. In addition to it, the total number of cases too has been on a constant increase with time. Hence this is a positive for CVS. This shows a general trend and we haven’t accounted for this effect specifically in our model.

MARKETS AND COMPETITION

As we discussed in the previous sections of this report, there are three major types of players in the pharmaceutical market namely health insurers, pharmacy benefit managers and pharmacy stores/networks. The major health insurers in the US market in terms of premiums paid are United Health, Anthem, Humana, Healthcare Service Corp and Aetna.

These health insurers control 83%26 of the total market. With the number of insured in the US reaching 292mln in 2016, the count of members with these five large insurers is 242mln. With an average revenue of ~$50 per prescription and an average of 12 prescriptions per year, these account for a total of $145bln of the prescription drug revenue. Hence these insurers yield significant influence on the Pharmacy Benefit Managers, who form the next layer in the pharmacy supply chain.

The graph below shows the market share of the top Pharmacy Benefit Managers in the US. Express Scripts has a share of 26% followed by CVS with 25% and OptumRx’s 22%. The other two PBMs are far behind the top three with Humana having 10% and Prime Therapeutics having 8% of the market share.

(Source: Statista Dossier – US Prescription Market11)

It is important to take into consideration the vertical integration of these players. Express Scripts is a pureplay PBM whereas CVS Caremark is an integration of pharmacy and a PBM. OptumRx belongs to United Healthcare which shows a combination of a health insurer and a PBM. Prime Therapeutics has a joint venture with Walgreens named AllianceRx Walgreens Prime16.

The final type of player in the supply chain is the drug store/pharmacy. The following graph shows the market share of the various drug store chains in the US in terms of their prescription drug revenue.

(Source: Statista Dossier – Drug Store/Pharmacy Market in the US)

As shown in the above graph, Walgreens and CVS are close to each other having a 25% market share in the prescription drug business. Rite Aid and Walmart follow CVS as third and fourth largest respectively in terms of market share. It is worth considering the number of drug stores under the top three players. Walgreens has 8,175 stores and has signed an asset purchase agreement to buy 2,186 stores of Rite Aid. This takes the total count of Walgreens stores to 10,361. CVS has 9,700 stores (stand-alone and within Target). Hence the Rite Aid acquisition further concentrates the market share between the top two players thereby giving significant bargaining power to Walgreens and CVS. With the second largest PBM too under its control, CVS as a single entity certainly has a significant bargaining power while dealing with the health insurers, other PBMs and pharmacy networks.

Peer Comparisons

In terms of competition, we consider Walgreens, Rite Aid, United Health, Express Scripts Humana and Walgreens. We have included Rite Aid and Walgreens mainly for their pharmacy network. Humana, Express Scripts and United Health (OptumRx) compete in the PBM space. The following tables compare the above listed companies in terms of various metrics.

The above table shows that United Health has the highest EBIT Margin and Express Scripts scores the best in terms of EBITDA Margin, Reinvestment Rate and Return on Equity. CVS ranks second in EBIT Margin, EBITDA Margin and better than Walgreens in RoE. So CVS has room to improve its margins, a proposal undertaken by CVS as a cost-cutting measure to save around 2bln through reorganization of its stores in areas with greater demand.

(Source: FACTSET)

The above table shows the debt side of the companies. CVS has a high long term debt/equity ratio, next to Express Scripts and Rite Aid. This is a result of the acquisition of Omnicare and the pharmacies within the Target stores. However, CVS is best positioned to service its interest from its annual earnings.

(Source: FACTSET)

The above table deals with the working capital turnover ratios with an emphasis on the liquidity of the companies. While CVS has the shortest inventory turnover cycle of 34 days among the pharmacy networks, it has the second longest Days of Payables next to Walgreens. Overall, CVS falls behind Walgreens in terms of Cash Conversion Cycle and is ahead of Rite Aid. Since these ratios are more related to the sale of goods, service oriented companies such as United Health, Humana and Express Scripts cannot be compared to the pharmacy network companies.

(Source: FACTSET)

The above table focuses on the liquidity ratios. Walgreens is better in terms of cash and quick ratio whereas Rite Aid is the best in current ratio. When compared to 2015, the long term debt and cash of Walgreens rose $5-$6bln in 2016. This liquid cash of around $9bln may be one of the reasons for the superior performance of Walgreens in terms of liquidity.

(Source: FACTSET)

According to the above graph, Express Scripts performs well in terms of Price/Book and Price/Earnings. However, CVS is undervalued when compared to the other two pharmacy networks namely Walgreens and Rite Aid. Furthermore, if the relationship between CVS and Aetna works out well, CVS may demand a higher multiple for having an insurer, PBM and pharmacy network in one package.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

The chart below shows the Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index.

Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index

(Source: Investing.com10)

As it can be seen above, the consumer confidence is close to the highest since January 2015 at around 120. Hence we can expect robust demand driving the prices northwards thereby giving a reason for the Federal Reserve to raise its interest rate at least by the beginning of next year if not in 2017. Inflation is an important factor of consideration in our model as the long-term growth values of revenue/prescription, revenue/claim processed, and revenue/year growth of front-store sales are anchored at 2%.

Unemployment Rate

The graph below shows the unemployment rate in the US since January 2015. Since then, the rate has been on an almost constant decline and reached 4.4% in August 2017. Though unemployment rate has not been directly accounted for in our model, this is an important factor of consideration for CVS in terms of its front-store sales on the retail side, and for Caremark in terms of the number of members/employers in its network.

Unemployment Rate in US

The graph below shows the average hourly earnings rise (month-on-month) since January 2013.

Average Hourly Earnings in US

(Source: Investing.com – Average Hourly Earnings in US)

The decline in unemployment rate along with an increase of average hourly wages from $23.74 in Jan 2013 to $26.55 in Aug 2016 serves as a good sign for CVS in terms of demand for goods. However, it may pressurize CVS from the point of wage expenses. We have accounted for this growth in wages by assuming Selling, General and Administrative expenses as 10.5%-11% of sales.

Page 13

Pharmacy/Drug Store Sales in US

The following graph shows the overall drug store sales in the US.

(Source: Statista Dossier – Drug Store/Pharmacy Market in US12)

Since 2006, the overall sales has risen by around 37% with a CAGR of 4%. Being a non-discretionary good, drug sales have been consistent even during times of recession. This factor makes the market all the more appealing for investment. We have accounted for this effect in our model through corresponding assumption values for prescription per store volume growth.

CATALYSTS FOR GROWTH

• The changing landscape of the pharmaceutical industry with PBMs enjoying significant pricing power may not last long. In the event of redistribution of power in the supply chain, vertically integrated business models tend to gain

• With more focus on generics and step-therapy where the treatment of patients starts with generics and moves towards brand-name drugs/specialty medicines, the average revenue per prescription is declining. Hence profit margins play a key role to keep the bottom-line intact.

• With Walgreens being the only major competitor in the pharmacy store space, emphasis on loyalty programs and additional services like MinuteClinics by CVS can have inflated benefits.

INVESTMENT POSITIVES

• With Aetna’s desire to acquire Humana and have an in-house PBM falling apart, it has built a strong relationship with CVS to make-up for the loss.

• CVS stands second in PBM market share and pharmacy stores market share. Walgreens and Express Scripts, companies ahead of CVS in pharmacy and PBM space respectively, are not as vertically integrated as CVS.

• CVS has a fair probability of winning Anthem contract which is expected to add around $1B to EBITDA.

• CVS announced in its first quarter earnings that it won 50% of all the contracts that were up for bidding in early 2017.

INVESTMENT NEGATIVES

• Loss of Prime Therapeutics and Tricare contracts will cost CVS a decline of around 40mln prescriptions on an annual basis.

• Amazon’s entry will disrupt the market. With Walgreens in talks to purchase half of Rite Aid’s stores, almost 2000 stores will be open for acquisition.

• Loss of Federal Employee Plan (specialty pharmacy) has increased the chances of losing the FEP mail order business as well which has a revenue of around $5.4B.

VALUATION

We evaluated the intrinsic value of CVS with three models namely Discounted Cash Flow, Dividend Discount and Relative P/E. In DCF model, our intrinsic value is $87.16, $78.72 in Relative P/E and $160.01 in DDM. Since our peer group in Relative P/E involves health insurers, PBMs and pharmacy networks, and as CVS cannot be considered a pure-play in any of the above segments, Relative P/E cannot be an accurate measure. CVS repurchased 45mln shares in 2016 and has an aggressive plan to buy-back shares worth $5B in 2017. This may hamper the dividend discount model if CVS decides to stay constant at the current dividend payout ratio. Hence we find DCF as the closes model to reality that factors in almost all the expectations we have.

Revenue Decomposition:

We have arrived at the consolidated revenue based on projections for individual segments. In the Pharmacy Services segment, the revenue is a direct proportion of total claims processed and revenue per claim. Total claims processed growth has been highly fluctuating from 32.48% in 2011 to 3%-9% in 2013-2015 and 21.55% in 2016. This is

a direct function of the number of relationships with health insurers, the number of clients in their networks, exclusivity of the contract and relationship of CVS with individual employers. Currently, it is estimated that there are more than 100 small-scale PBMs operating within their limited networks winning regional businesses. Hence going forward, we have not modeled such high growth in any of the subsequent years. We estimate 4% growth in 2017-2018, gradually increasing to 6% continuing value growth. Revenue per claim is expected to decrease by 2% in 2017, stay at 0% in 2018 and grow at 2% then onwards. The decline and zero growth should take into account the shift towards generics from brand-name drugs which reduces the overall revenue. This trend will have a reduced impact beyond 2018 with inflation growing beyond 2%. Hence we predict the net effect of the revenue decline due to generics and revenue increase due to inflation lead to an overall rise in revenue of 2%.

The Retail/LTC segment revenue is a factor of the number of stores. Currently, we consider the stand-alone retail stores and the ones within Target. With further segmentation of revenue, we take a look at the prescriptions filled per store. It has risen from 100,000 per store in 2010 to around 126,000 per store in 2016. Going forward, we expect this number to gradually rise from 120,000 in 2017 to 125,000 in 2019 and stay constant going forward. Revenue per prescription is expected to not change in 2017 and 2018, and grow 1% in 2019 due to the effects mentioned in the previous section. In the subsequent years, it is estimated to grow at 2% on a year-on-year basis.

The other three segments of Retail/LTC namely General Merchandise and Other, OTC & Personal Care and Beauty/Cosmetics are expected to grow at a slightly higher rate from 2018-2022 when compared to their historical growth rates due to the expectation of new stores in the southern states, probability of winning the Anthem contract in 2019 and further traffic from Cigna and OptumRx deals.

In terms of gross profit margins, we predict the value to be 30% for Retail/LTC and 5.3%-7.0% for Pharmacy Services. The gross profits in retail segment will be primarily driven by the additional services such as MinuteClinic and more products from CVS-owned brands. The gross profit of the Pharmacy Services segment has been at around 7% on average since 2008 and we expect this to be the continuing value GPM.

In terms of the number of stores, we expect CVS to open 80, 90 stores in 2017 and 2018 respectively. In the subsequent years, CVS is expected to open 100 stores every year taking into consideration a historical average of 350 new stores per year from 2007-2016.

Operating Expenses:

Operating expenses are expected to rise to 11.0% of sales in 2019-2021 from 10.5% in 2017-2018 due to more number of stores being opened. Going forward, it is expected to settle down at 10.5%.

Other important Assumptions:

We expect LT Debt/NC Assets to be at 44%, ST Investments/Current Liabilities at 0.3%, Gross Accounts Receivables/Sales at 7%, Inventory/ Cost of Sales at 10%, and Net PPE growth to vary between 8%-9% from 2017-2024.

WACC:

We use variable WACC in our model. Risk-free rate of 2.8%, beta of 0.6, and a risk premium of 4,8% give us a cost of equity of 5.68%. Cost of debt is 4.55%. Market value of equity and debt are $85.3B and $50.7B respectively. With the above inputs, we get a WACC of 5.26% in 2016, WACC gradually rises to 6.74% in 2024 due to the changing capital structure of CVS.

Share Buybacks, ESOPs and Dividends:

Net share repurchase of CVS in 2016 was 45mln. The company has an aggressive target of $5B share repurchase in 2017. Hence we assume that the repurchases gradually decrease from 35M shares in 2017 to no repurchases in 2024 as this is more sustainable in the long-run. The total value of Options outstanding as of December 31, 2016 was $456mln. With an average strike price of $22.76, these ESOPs are expected to fetch a revenue of $143.6mln from 2017-2019 and $99mln in 2020.

The dividend in 2016 was $1.70 per share. Dividend growth rate has had a historical average of 25.3% since 2008 with a record of 42.86% growth in 2011. Going forward, we expect the dividend growth rate to be a constant 15%. This is a conservative estimate.

Page 15

KEYS TO MONITOR

• Anthem contract up for renewal in 4Q 2017 with the service beginning from Jan 2019 is important for CVS.

• Amazon’s strategy in the pharmacy space will be important to assess the shift in market share.

• More than $20bln revenue worth of contracts are up for renewal in 2017. CVS’s success rate in winning them back should be watched.
