“Our second quarter results were highlighted by strong top-line growth and margin expansion, driven by executing on our strategic priorities and continuing to build our consumer-first healthcare delivery model that optimizes access and provides care over the course of a patient’s healthcare journey,” stated Marty Bonick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ardent Health. “Looking ahead, we are well-positioned for continued growth with a strengthened balance sheet and capital structure from the successful completion of our IPO in July. We believe our dedication to improving healthcare in the communities we serve and our balanced growth strategy position us to deliver long-term value for both our patients and shareholders.”
“Fundamentally, we continue to see broad-based demand for healthcare across both inpatient and outpatient settings, while systemic labor cost pressures continue to abate and normalize. This stability enables us to sharpen our strategic focus on growth and improving access to healthcare within our markets.”
“On the operational front, our team continued to successfully execute on its operational excellence initiatives, resulting in continued supply cost efficiencies and lower contract labor costs relative to last year,” continued Bonick. “Service line optimization drove an expected reduction in outpatient surgery volumes, and, in turn, contributed to a higher level of net patient service revenue per adjusted admission and improved margins, relative to the second quarter of last year.”
“We currently expect that continued volume growth in our markets, when combined with our strategic execution, should enable us to deliver sustained profitable growth through the end of the year,” said Bonick. “To that end, we have introduced our full year 2024 guidance, which reflects year-over-year growth in total revenue of approximately

2.2% when compared to the same prior year period. The decrease in surgeries reflected a0.9% decrease in inpatient surgeries and a2.8% decrease in outpatient surgeries, relative to the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in surgeries was primarily driven by the Company’s strategic service line optimization efforts, which resulted in a decrease in outpatient dental, otolaryngology and ophthalmology cases.

-
Net patient service revenue per adjusted admission for the second quarter of 2024 increased
4.1% when compared to the same prior year period.

Strategic Update
Ardent Health is committed to delivering long-term value creation through a multi-faceted strategy focused on targeted market share growth, operational excellence, and disciplined capital allocation. The Company's growth strategy and overall value proposition are driven by its culture of care and commitment to improving healthcare in the markets it serves.
-
Targeted market share growth: The Company intends to enhance its leading positions within the markets it serves by investing in acute care and ambulatory services and creating additional access points through which patients can receive care. The Company has identified a robust pipeline of ambulatory opportunities that it intends to pursue, including urgent care centers, ambulatory surgery centers, freestanding emergency rooms and physician clinics. Through the end of the second quarter, the Company has grown its ambulatory network through the addition of eight urgent care centers and is evaluating additional expansion opportunities for the second half of the year. In addition, the Company intends to improve access and retention by growing its network of employed providers. As of June 30, 2024, the Company's affiliated provider network included 1,785 providers, an increase of
6.5% compared to June 30, 2023.
-
Operational excellence: Since 2022, the Company has undertaken substantial efforts to centralize and standardize key functions of the organization to reduce costs and improve profitability. As a result of these efforts, the Company has created a standardized and scaled platform connecting the facilities in each of its markets. Going forward, the Company is focused on improving its margin and operating leverage through the further implementation of standardized practices across the Company, enterprise-wide implementation of technology solutions to drive efficiencies, service line optimization, and continued implementation of uniform clinical practices. During the second quarter, the Company executed on a variety of supply cost reduction initiatives focusing on improved inventory management, standardized surgical supply procurement and strategic sourcing. In addition, the Company’s service line optimization efforts resulted in an approximate
1.9% decrease in surgery cases during the first six months of 2024, particularly within lower margin services lines, such as dental, otolaryngology and ophthalmology. These service line optimization efforts consequently benefited the Company’s profitability through improved margins and higher net patient service revenue per adjusted admission.
- Disciplined capital allocation: Ardent Health is focused on a balanced approach to capital deployment with the goal of pursuing opportunistic acquisitions into new markets while limiting financial leverage. The Company is targeting expansion into similar sized, growing, urban markets with significant unmet healthcare needs. The Company is actively evaluating a pipeline of potential acquisition targets that match its target criteria.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information
We have included certain financial measures in this press release that have not been prepared in a manner that complies with
-
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus (i) provision for income taxes, (ii) interest expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization expense (or EBITDA), as adjusted to deduct net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, and excludes the effects of other non-operating losses (gains), restructuring, exit and acquisition-related costs, expenses incurred in connection with the implementation of Epic Systems ("Epic"), our integrated health information technology system, non-cash unit-based compensation expense, and operations.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure used by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, analysts, lenders, rating agencies and other interested parties, to evaluate companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that is not defined under GAAP and is presented in this report because our management considers it an important analytical indicator that is commonly used within the healthcare industry to evaluate financial performance and allocate resources. Further, our management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain material non-cash items and unusual or non-recurring items that we do not expect to continue in the future and certain other adjustments we believe are not reflective of our ongoing operations and our performance.
Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of the non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
While we believe this is a useful supplemental performance measure for investors and other users of our financial information, you should not consider the non-GAAP measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income or any other items calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has inherent material limitations as a performance measure, because it adds back certain expenses to net income, resulting in those expenses not being taken into account in the performance measure. We have borrowed money, so interest expense is a necessary element of our costs. Because we have material capital and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization expense are necessary elements of our costs. Likewise, the payment of taxes is a necessary element of our operations. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes these and other items, it has material limitations as a measure of our performance.
-
Adjusted EBITDAR. Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted to add back rent expense payable to REITs, which consists of rent expense pursuant to the Ventas Master Lease, lease agreements associated with the MOB Transactions (defined below) and a lease arrangement with MPT for the Hackensack Meridian Mountainside Medical Center.
Adjusted EBITDAR is a commonly used non-GAAP financial measure used by our management, research analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate and compare the enterprise value of different companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDAR excludes: (1) certain material noncash items and unusual or non-recurring items that we do not expect to continue in the future; (2) certain other adjustments that do not impact our enterprise value; and (3) rent expense payable to our REITs. We operate 30 acute care hospitals, 12 of which we leased from two REITs, Ventas and MPT, pursuant to long-term lease agreements. Additionally, during 2022 we completed the sale of 18 medical office buildings to Ventas in exchange for$204.0 million
Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
While we believe these are useful supplemental financial measures for investors and other users of our financial information, you should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for net income or any other items calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAR has inherent material limitations as a valuation measure, because it adds back certain expenses to net income, resulting in those expenses not being taken into account in the valuation measure. The payment of taxes and rent is a necessary element of our valuation. Because Adjusted EBITDAR exclude these and other items, it has material limitations as a measure of our valuation.

(20) decreased demand for our services provided due to factors beyond our control, such as seasonal fluctuations in the severity of critical illnesses, pandemic, epidemic or widespread health crisis; (21) inability to accurately estimate market opportunity and forecasts of market growth; (22) general economic and business conditions, both nationally and in the regions in which we operate; (23) the impact of seasonal or severe weather conditions and climate change; (24) inability to demonstrate meaningful use of Electronic Health Record technology; (25) inability to continually enhance our hospitals with the most recent technological advances in diagnostic and surgical equipment; (26) effects of current and future health reform initiatives, including the Affordable Care Act, and the potential for changes to the Affordable Care Act, its implementation or its interpretation (including through executive orders and court challenges); (27) legal and regulatory restrictions on certain of our hospitals that have physician owners; (28) risks related to the Ventas Master Lease and its restrictions and limitations on our business; (29) the impact of our significant indebtedness, including our ability to comply with certain debt covenants and other significant operating and financial restrictions imposed on us by the agreements governing our indebtedness, and the effects that variable interest rates, and general economic factors could have on our operations, including our potential inability to service our indebtedness; (30) conflicts of interest with the existing stockholders; (31) effects of changes in federal tax laws; (32) increased costs as a result of operating as a public company; (33) risks related to maintaining an effective system of internal controls;

Hospitals operated (at period end). This metric represents the total number of hospitals operated by us at the end of the applicable period, irrespective of whether the hospital real estate is (i) owned by us, (ii) leased by us or (iii) held through a controlling interest in a JV. This metric includes the managed clinical operations of the hospital at UT Health North Campus in |

Licensed beds (at period end). This metric represents the total number of beds for which the appropriate state agency licenses a facility, regardless of whether the beds are actually available for patient use. |
||||||||||||
(3) |
Utilization of licensed beds. This metric represents a measure of the actual utilization of our inpatient facilities, computed by (i) dividing patient days by the number of days in each period, and (ii) further dividing that number by average licensed beds, which is calculated by dividing total licensed beds (at period end) by the number of days in the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period the licensed beds were in existence. |

(4) |
Admissions. This metric represents the number of patients admitted for inpatient treatment during the applicable period. |
||||||||||||
(5) |
Adjusted admissions. This metric is used by management as a general measure of combined inpatient and outpatient volume. Adjusted admissions provides management with a key performance indicator that considers both inpatient and outpatient volumes by applying an inpatient volume measure (admissions) to a ratio of gross inpatient and outpatient revenue to gross inpatient revenue. Gross inpatient and outpatient revenue reflect gross inpatient and outpatient charges prior to estimated contractual adjustments, uninsured discounts, implicit price concessions, and other discounts. The calculation of adjusted admissions is summarized as follows: |

|
Adjusted Admissions = Admissions x (Gross Inpatient Revenue + Gross Outpatient Revenue) |

Inpatient surgeries. This metric represents the number of surgeries performed on patients who have been admitted to our hospitals. Pain management, c-sections, and certain diagnostic procedures are excluded from inpatient surgeries. |
