Information to be included in the report

Item 7.01.    Regulation FD Disclosure

On August 4, 2006, the Procurement Division of the Indiana Department of Administration notified our Indiana health plan, Molina Healthcare of Indiana, Inc., that it has not been selected for contract negotiations to provide services in 2007 to the Hoosier Healthwise Medicaid program as a managed care organization for the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration. As a result of its not being selected, our Indiana health plan's existing contract with the state will expire on December 31, 2006.

The enrollment of our Indiana plan as of June 30, 2006 was 37,000 members, representing 3.7% of our total membership. The premium revenue of our Indiana plan for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 was $16.7 million, represented 3.5% of our total revenue.

We do not expect the loss of our Indiana contract for 2007 to impact the fiscal year 2006 guidance given on August 1, 2006.

Note: The information furnished herewith pursuant to Item 7.01 of this current report shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
