Full Year 2022 Outlook:
The Company expects full year 2022 revenue between
While the Company expects the impact of COVID-19 on our future results to be transitory, P3 expects to incur additional COVID-19 related costs in full year 2022 given the volume of positive cases and “breakthrough” cases (positive cases in vaccinated patients) present in the Company’s markets. COVID-19 disproportionately impacts older adults, especially those with chronic illnesses, which describes many of P3’s patients. The full extent to which COVID-19 will directly or indirectly impact P3’s full year 2022 results of operations and financial condition will depend on multiple factors, including, but not limited to new and emerging information from the impact of new variants of the virus. Because of these factors, management may not be able to fully estimate the length or severity of the impact of the pandemic on P3’s business and results of operations.
Dr. Abdou added, “In 2022, we will continue to focus on operational excellence, delivering improved patient outcomes and executing on our disciplined, purposeful growth strategy. We believe P3 is now in an excellent position to achieve our vision to lead the transformation of healthcare with our proven, capital-efficient, scalable model.”
The Company currently anticipates filing a Form 12b-25, Notification of Late Filing, no later than April 1, 2022, which will provide the Company with a 15-calendar day extension to file its Form 10-K. The Company expects to report fourth quarter and audited full year 2021 financial results on or before April 15, 2022, the expiration date of the extension period. The Company began publicly trading on the Nasdaq on December 3, 2021, and the Company and its independent auditor, BDO LLP, anticipate needing additional time to finalize the Company’s initial Form 10-K filing. The Company does not expect future delays in subsequent regulatory filings.

Business Combination and Presentation of Financial Results
As a result of the business combination consummated on December 3, 2021, the Company was deemed to be the acquirer and successor for accounting purposes, and P3 Health Group Holdings, LLC, which is the business conducted prior to the closing of the business combination, was deemed to be the acquiree and accounting predecessor. The Company’s financial results are distinguished between two distinct periods, the period prior to the business combination closing date (the “Predecessor” period) and the period after the closing date (the “Successor” period), which reflects a new basis of accounting that is based on the fair value of net assets acquired. The preliminary financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, presented in this release combine these two periods.
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 United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss) before (i) interest expense, (ii) income taxes and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, further adjusted to add back the effect of certain expenses, such as (iv) mark-to-market warrant expense, (v) premium deficiency reserves, (vi) stock-based compensation and (vii) transaction expenses. Adjusted EBITDA PMPM is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the number of at-risk Medicare Advantage members each month divided by the number of months in the period. We believe these non‐GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other similar companies. We do not consider these non‐GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non‐GAAP financial measures. In addition, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial 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 following tables present a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA PMPM to net income (loss) PMPM, which are the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP:

(1) As of the date of this release, the Company has not finalized its 2021 income tax provision.
We are not able to provide a reconciliation of guidance for Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA PMPM to net income (loss) or net income (loss) PMPM, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, respectively, and have not provided forward-looking guidance for net income (loss) or net income (loss) PMPM, because of the variability around select items that may impact net income (loss), including stock-based compensation and mark-to-market warrant expense, that are not within our control or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort.
Key Performance Metrics
In addition to our GAAP and non-GAAP financial information, the Company also monitors “at risk members” to help us evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. At-risk membership represents the approximate number of Medicare Advantage members for whom we receive a fixed per member per month fee under capitation arrangements as of the end of a particular period.
