TOI continues to grow in existing and new markets throughout California, Florida, Nevada, and Arizona and plans to enter Texas in 2022. TOI has also added a new service line with the addition of its first Radiation Oncology practice in the fourth quarter of 2021. The large and growing populations of Medicare Advantage members and value-based primary care groups, paired with TOI’s deep experience partnering with risk-bearing entities, position TOI for significant future growth. Notably, TOI is now projecting to manage a population of 1.75 million to 2.0 million value-based lives by year-end 2022, representing approximately
As TOI builds its presence in new markets, many of its new contracts will feature gain sharing contracts rather than capitation. These new contracts enable TOI to work with payors and risk-bearing providers as they continue their shift to value-based care models. Gain sharing contracts are likely to produce lower revenue in the initial period as compared to full capitation; however, gain sharing contracts generally do not expose TOI to downside risk in the same way capitation contracts do. TOI believes these contracts will shift to capitation once payors and risk-bearing providers in these new markets become comfortable with TOI’s ability to generate savings and better outcomes. TOI also expects higher public company costs than previously forecast, largely due to elevated directors and officers insurance costs. TOI continues to invest in its corporate infrastructure and related G&A expenses to execute on its growth plan.

Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of TOI. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the accuracy of the assumptions underlying the 2022 outlook discuss herein, the outcome of judicial and administrative proceedings to which TOI may become a party or governmental investigations to which TOI may become subject that could interrupt or limit TOI’s operations, result in adverse judgments, settlements or fines and create negative publicity; changes in TOI’s clients’ preferences, prospects and the competitive conditions prevailing in the healthcare sector; failure to continue to meet stock exchange listing standards; the impact of COVID-19 on the TOI’s business; those factors discussed in the documents of TOI filed, or to be filed, with the SEC.

In addition, forward-looking statements reflect TOI’s, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release.

Financial Information; Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Some of the financial information and data contained in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). TOI believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool to assess operational performance and trends in, and in comparing our financial measures with, other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. TOI’s non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in TOI's financial statements. Because of the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures, you should consider the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release in conjunction with TOI’s financial statements and the related notes thereto.
TOI defines Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income plus depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes, non-cash items, share-based comp and other adjustments to add-back the following: board fees, consulting and legal fees related to acquisitions, one-time consulting and legal fees related to certain advisory projects, software implementations and debt or equity financings, severance expense and temp labor and recruiting charges to build out our corporate infrastructure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most comparable GAAP metric, is set forth below.
