When does UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH) report earnings? Dates quarter by quarter

None of its last 12 announcements carries a time on the filing, so there is no way to say which session they fell in. Each one comes from the 8-K with item 2.02 that UnitedHealth filed with the SEC, paired with the 10-Q or 10-K for that same quarter: 68 quarters since Jul 21, 2009, and every row links to its filing.

Next date: UNH does not appear in the announced-earnings calendar this site covers (Oct 21, 2026 to Nov 24, 2026). When the company announces the day it will show up here; until then there is no date, and an estimate of ours would not be one.

The latest, still without a report

It is this company's most recent 8-K with item 2.02 and it does not yet have its 10-Q or 10-K behind it, so there is no way to say which quarter it belongs to: it does not enter the figures above or the table, and for the same reason it might not be an earnings announcement at all (some companies use this same item for production figures or monthly sales).

The last 20 quarters, one by one

"Lead": trading sessions between the announcement and the full quarterly report to the SEC (10-Q, or 10-K at fiscal year end). For UnitedHealth, a median of 16.5 sessions over the last 12 quarters.

Where each number comes from

From the 8-K with item 2.02 ("Results of Operations and Financial Condition") that UnitedHealth filed on EDGAR, the SEC's public database; only those with their 10-Q or 10-K behind them count, so other 8-Ks with the same item (production figures, monthly sales) stay out. No time is published for this company: its EDGAR acceptance stamp and the official header of its filings disagree, so there is no way to know whether the stamp is in New York time or UTC, and the two readings are four or five hours apart —enough to change session—. The dates are firm; the time and the session are deliberately left empty rather than filled in with a guess.

What this data does not know

  • The exact time of the press release: the 8-K reaches EDGAR minutes or hours later, so any 8-K time is an upper bound. The session says which one the news landed in, not what minute it was said.
  • Nothing before Jul 21, 2009: it is UnitedHealth's oldest quarter with announcement and report paired in the file.
  • What will happen. Every date on the page already happened.
  • UnitedHealth's identity is its SEC CIK (0000731766), not its symbol: symbols get recycled and renamed.
