Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements relate to future events and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by phrases such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "foresees," "forecasts," "estimates" or other words or phrases of similar import, including, without limitation, (i) our plans to improve our cost structure, improve operating cash flow, and simplify and optimize our business model and our expectations that as we continue to execute on our action plan, our earnings trajectory will improve and accelerate, particularly in the second half of the year, and to continue our disciplined growth trajectory throughout 2023, and remain squarely focused on near-term execution to achieve sustainable profitability and build long-term value; (ii) based on the historic performance of our more established medical centers, our plans to unlock substantial embedded profitability as our medical centers continue to mature; (iii) our belief that with a track record of industry-leading clinical outcomes and patient engagement, we are uniquely positioned to capture additional share of a compelling market opportunity and help patients live longer and healthier lives; (iv) our plans to improve Adjusted EBITDA and accelerate our path to positive free cash flow to reduce long-term debt and leverage ratios, as part of our long-term capital management strategy; (v) our plans to pursue the divestiture of certain non-core assets to strengthen our focus on our high-performing Medicare Advantage business; (vi) our expectation that our MCR will moderate throughout the year, particularly in the second half; and (vii) our financial guidance for 2023. These forward-looking statements are based on information available to us at the time of this release and our current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based on many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known or unknown factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. It is uncertain whether any of the events anticipated by our forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition. Important risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements include, among others, changes in market or industry conditions, changes in the regulatory environment, competitive conditions, and/or consumer receptivity to our services; changes in our strategy, future operations, prospects and plans; developments and uncertainties related to the Direct Contracting Entity program; our ability to realize expected financial results, including with respect to patient membership, total revenue and earnings; our ability to predict and control our medical cost ratio; our ability to grow market share in existing markets and continue our growth; our ability to integrate our acquisitions and achieve desired synergies; our ability to maintain our relationships with health plans and other key payors; our future capital requirements and sources and uses of cash, including funds to satisfy our liquidity needs; our ability to attract and retain members of management and our Board of Directors; and/or our ability to recruit and retain qualified team members and independent physicians.
Actual results may also differ materially from such forward-looking statements for a number of other reasons, including those set forth in our filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, the risk factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2023, as amended by our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, filed with the SEC on April 7, 2023 (the "2022 Form 10-K"), as well as our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K that we have filed or will file with the SEC during 2023 (which may be viewed on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov or on our website at http://www.investors.canohealth.com/ir-home), as well as reasons including, without limitation, delays or difficulties in, and/or unexpected or less than anticipated results from our efforts to: (i) improve our cost structure, improve our operating cash flow, and simplify and optimize our business model, as well as improve and accelerate our earnings trajectory, achieve sustainable profitability, and/or accelerate our path to positive free cash flow, such as due to higher interest rates, higher than expected costs and/or greater than anticipated competitive factors; (ii) unlock substantial embedded profitability from our medical centers, such as due to lower than expected patient utilization rates and/or higher than expected operating costs; (iii) capture additional market share, such as due to higher than expected competition for our patients services; (iv) improve our Adjusted EBITDA, achieve free cash flow and/or reduce our long-term debt and leverage ratios, whether due to unexpected demands on our cash resources and/or lower than expected revenues; (v) evaluate and/or consummate any asset dispositions, such as due to tightness in the credit markets and/or M&A markets; (vi) unexpected changes to our MCR throughout 2023, such as due to unexpected developments with respect to our revenue PMPM, seasonal trends in medical costs, and recoveries from stop loss and pharmacy rebates; and/or (vii) achieve our financial guidance for 2023, such as due to a broad recessionary economic environment, less than anticipated utilization of our medical centers and/or access to less than anticipated sources of liquidity. For a detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, please refer to our risk factor disclosure included in our filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, our 2022 Form 10-K. Investors should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this release in the context of these risks and uncertainties. Factors other than those listed above could also cause our results to differ materially from expected results. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation or duty to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether to reflect actual results of operations; changes in financial condition; changes in general
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC rules. Adjusted EBITDA has not been prepared in accordance with
The Company's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for their respective most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income/loss, operating income/loss, diluted earnings/loss per share or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expense, income and other items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, other companies may define such non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and related footnotes filed with the SEC.
A reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures is available under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures."
The Company has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, because the Company cannot predict with a reasonable degree of certainty and without unreasonable efforts certain reconciling items, such as certain costs and expenses that are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control. For these reasons, management is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the computation of forward-looking GAAP net loss.

1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures". A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA table included in this press release. |
2 Medical Cost Ratio ("MCR") is calculated as third-party medical expense divided by capitated revenue. |
3 The Company is significantly reducing its investments in de novo medical centers in 2023; therefore, at the beginning of 2023, the Company revised its definition of Adjusted EBITDA to no longer add back losses related to these de novo medical centers, which include those costs associated with the ramp up of new medical centers and losses incurred up to 12 months after the opening of a new facility. |
