Adjusted EBITDA also is comparable to a similar metric called Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Company’s asset-based loan facility (the “ABL Facility”) and the Company’s existing note indentures, which is a key component in the determination of the Company’s compliance with certain covenants under the ABL Facility and such note indentures (including the Company’s ability to service debt and incur capital expenditures), and is used to determine the interest rate and commitment fee payable under the ABL Facility (although Adjusted EBITDA does not include all of the adjustments described in the ABL Facility). Adjusted EBITDA includes the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to hospitals that were divested during the course of such year, but in each case solely to the extent relating to the period prior to the consummation of the applicable divestiture.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under

The following assumptions were used in developing the 2024 guidance provided above:
- The Company’s projections exclude the following:
- Effect of debt refinancing activities, including gains and losses from early extinguishment of debt;
- Impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets;
- The impact of any potential future divestitures;
- Gains or losses from the sales of businesses;
- Employee termination benefits and restructuring costs;
- Resolution of government investigations or other significant legal settlements;
- Costs incurred in connection with divestitures;
- Expense for third-party consulting costs associated with significant process and systems redesign across multiple functions as part of the Company’s previously disclosed business transformation initiative; and
- Other significant gains or losses that neither relate to the ordinary course of business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business performance.
Other assumptions used in the above guidance:
- Expressed as a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation and amortization of approximately 3.7% to 3.8% for 2024. Additionally, this is a fixed cost and the percentages may vary based on changes in net operating revenues. Such amounts exclude the possible impact of any future hospital fixed asset impairments.
-
Interest expense is estimated to be between
$850 million and$860 million while cash paid for interest, which excludes the amortization of deferred financing costs, is expected to be$730 million to$740 million . Total fixed rate debt is expected to average approximately 97% of total debt during 2024. - Expressed as a percentage of net operating revenues, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of approximately 1.2% to 1.3% for 2024.
- Expressed as a percentage of net operating revenues, provision for income taxes of approximately 0.8% to 0.9% for 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risk and uncertainties. All statements in this press release other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding projections, expected operating results, and other events that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions or that include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “thinks,” and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and may be beyond the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company cannot give any assurance that its expectations will in fact occur and cautions that actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. A number of factors could affect the future results of the Company or the healthcare industry generally and could cause the Company’s expected results to differ materially from those expressed in this press release.
These factors include, among other things:
- general economic and business conditions, both nationally and in the regions in which we operate, including the impact of current negative macroeconomic conditions, inflationary conditions, the current high interest rate environment, and current geopolitical instability, as well as the potential impact on us of political, financial, credit and capital conditions;
- the impact of current or future federal and state health reform initiatives;
- the extent to and manner in which states adopt changes to Medicaid programs, implement health insurance exchanges or alter or reduce the provision of, or payment for, healthcare to state residents through legislation, regulation or otherwise;
- changes related to health insurance enrollment, including those affecting the beneficiary enrollment process and the stability of health insurance exchanges;
- risks associated with our substantial indebtedness, leverage and debt service obligations, including our ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms or to incur additional indebtedness, and our ability to remain in compliance with debt covenants;
- demographic changes;
- changes in, or the failure to comply with, federal, state or local laws or governmental regulations affecting our business;
-
judicial developments impacting the Company or the healthcare industry, including the potential impact of the recent decisions of the
U.S. Supreme Court regarding the actions of federal agencies; - potential adverse impact of known and unknown legal, regulatory and governmental proceedings and other loss contingencies, including governmental investigations and audits, and federal and state false claims act litigation;
- our ability, where appropriate, to enter into and maintain provider arrangements with payors and the terms of these arrangements, which may be further affected by the increasing consolidation of health insurers and managed care companies and vertical integration efforts involving payors and healthcare providers;
- changes in, or the failure to comply with, contract terms with payors and changes in reimbursement policies, methodologies or rates paid by federal or state healthcare programs or commercial payors;
- security breaches, cyber-attacks, loss of data, other cybersecurity threats or incidents, including those experienced with respect to our information systems or the information systems of third parties with whom we conduct business, and any actual or perceived failures to comply with legal requirements governing the privacy and security of health information or other regulated, sensitive or confidential information, or legal requirements regarding data privacy or data protection;
- the development, adoption and use of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning;
- any potential impairments in the carrying value of goodwill, other intangible assets, or other long-lived assets, or changes in the useful lives of other intangible assets;
- the effects related to the sequestration spending reductions pursuant to both the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 and the potential for future deficit reduction legislation;
- increases in the amount and risk of collectability of patient accounts receivable, including decreases in collectability which may result from, among other things, self-pay growth and difficulties in recovering payments for which patients are responsible, including co-pays and deductibles;
- the efforts of insurers, healthcare providers, large employer groups and others to contain healthcare costs, including the trend toward value-based purchasing;
- the impact of competitive labor market conditions, including in connection with our ability to hire and retain qualified nurses, physicians, other medical personnel and key management, and increased labor expenses arising from inflation and/or competition for such positions;
- the inability of third parties with whom we contract to provide hospital-based physicians and the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate such non-performance including through acquisitions of outsourced medical specialist businesses, engagement with new or replacement providers, employment of physicians and re-negotiation or assumption of existing contracts;
- any failure to obtain medical supplies or pharmaceuticals at favorable prices;
- liabilities and other claims asserted against us, including self-insured professional liability claims;
- competition;
- trends toward treatment of patients in less acute or specialty healthcare settings, including ambulatory surgery centers or specialty hospitals or via telehealth;
- changes in medical or other technology;
- any failure of our ongoing process of redesigning and consolidating key business functions, including through the implementation of a new core enterprise resource planning system, to proceed as expected or to be completed successfully;
-
changes in
U.S. GAAP; - the availability and terms of capital to fund any additional acquisitions or replacement facilities or other capital expenditures;
- our ability to successfully make acquisitions or complete divestitures, our ability to complete any such acquisitions or divestitures on desired terms or at all, the timing of the completion of any such acquisitions or divestitures, and our ability to realize the intended benefits from any such acquisitions or divestitures;
- the impact that changes in our relationships with joint venture or syndication partners could have on effectively operating our hospitals or ancillary services or in advancing strategic opportunities;
- our ability to successfully integrate any acquired hospitals and/or outpatient facilities, or to realize expected benefits from acquisitions such as increased growth in patient service revenues;
- the impact of severe weather conditions and climate change, as well as the timing and amount of insurance recoveries in relation to severe weather events;
- our ability to obtain adequate levels of insurance, including general liability, professional liability, cyber liability and directors and officers liability insurance;
- timeliness of reimbursement payments received under government programs;
- effects related to pandemics, epidemics, or outbreaks of infectious diseases on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows;
- any failure to comply with our obligations under license or technology agreements;
- challenging economic conditions in non-urban communities in which we operate;
- the concentration of our revenue in a small number of states;
- our ability to realize anticipated cost savings and other benefits from our current strategic and operational cost savings initiatives;
- any changes in or interpretations of income tax laws and regulations; and
-
