Revenues for the quarter were $4.19 billion, up 7% compared to the third quarter of 2023. Revenues grew year-over-year due to increased demand across all customer segments, especially for managed health services.
With a net income margin of 8.6%, net income for the third quarter was $362 million, or $2.68 per diluted share. Comparisons to the year ago period are not meaningful as the result of the $699 million pre-tax, non-cash impairment and restructuring charge primarily associated with the Security Enterprise Solutions (SES) reporting unit recorded in the third quarter of 2023.
