The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable. Concurrently, AM Best has withdrawn these ratings as the company has requested to no longer participate in AM Best\u2019s interactive rating process.<\/p><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260625827649\/en\/828829\/5\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260625827649\/en\/828829\/22\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260625827649\/en\/828829\/5\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260625827649\/en\/828829\/21\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><p>The ratings reflect CalCPA Health\u2019s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong as well as its marginal operating performance, very limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM).<\/p><p>CalCPA Health\u2019s balance sheet strength metrics weakened due to a material deterioration in its equity position resulting from operating losses through the end of 2025. CalCPA Health has taken steps to mitigate the unfavorable operating results trends through strategic rate initiatives for 2026, and operating results have shown improvement through the first quarter of 2026 with a reported positive operating gain.<\/p><p>The stable outlooks reflect AM Best\u2019s expectation that CalCPA Health will continue to maintain its very strong balance sheet strength supported by risk-adjusted capitalization at the very strong level, as measured by Best\u2019s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR).<\/p><p>CalCPA Health\u2019s business profile remains very limited due to its strategy of marketing to a specific professional organization. The company sells to firms that are members of the California Society of Certified Public Accountants, which creates geographic and business concentration risks. CalCPA Health provides core employee benefit services, including medical, dental, vision care and pharmacy. AM Best assesses CalCPA Health\u2019s ERM as appropriate, supported by a comprehensive risk management framework.<\/p><p><b>This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best\u2019s website.
