Important Additional Information and Where to Find It
On December 23, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the 'Merger Agreement') with NH Holdings 2025, Inc.

Parent is indirectly controlled by private investment funds affiliated with New Enterprise Associates, Inc. ('NEA').
In connection with the Transaction, the Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the 'Proxy Statement'), the definitive version of which has been sent or provided to Company stockholders. The Company, affiliates of the Company and affiliates of NEA have jointly filed a transaction statement on Schedule 13E-3 (the 'Schedule 13E-3') with the SEC. The Company has also filed or may also file other documents with the SEC regarding the transaction. This release is not a substitute for the Proxy Statement, the Schedule 13E-3 or any other document which the Company has filed or may file with the SEC. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT, THE SCHEDULE 13E-3 AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT ARE FILED OR WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THESE DOCUMENTS, CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING OR INVESTMENT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPANY OR THE TRANSACTION BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS CONTAIN OR WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRANSACTION AND RELATED MATTERS.

The Transaction will be implemented solely pursuant to the Merger Agreement, which contains the full terms and conditions of the transaction.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company and certain of its directors, executive officers and employees may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders of the Company in connection with the proposed transaction. Information regarding the Company's directors and executive officers is available in the definitive proxy statement for the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, which was filed by the Company with the SEC on April 30, 2025 (the 'Annual Meeting Proxy Statement').

Other information regarding the participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, may be contained in other relevant materials to be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed Transaction when they become available.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Cost Ratio. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net Loss excluding loss from discontinued operations, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, transaction costs, share-based and other long-term compensation expense, impact of troubled debt restructuring, restructuring and contract termination costs, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, losses related to the bankruptcy of one of our ACO REACH partners, impact of classifying certain of our operations as held-for-sale, and changes in the fair value of derivatives. We define Adjusted Operating Cost Ratio as Operating Cost Ratio excluding share-based compensation expense. These non-GAAP measures have been presented in this quarterly Earnings Release or in the earnings conference call and related materials as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP because we believe they assist management and investors in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding and including items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management believes these measures are useful to investors in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Cost Ratio to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to establish discretionary annual incentive compensation and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management supplements GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net Income (Loss) as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for management's discretionary use as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.
Adjusted Operating Cost Ratio is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Operating Cost Ratio as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of Adjusted Operating Cost Ratio has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:
(a) Transaction related costs include accounting, tax, valuation, consulting, legal and investment banking fees directly relating to financing initiatives and acquisitions or dispositions. These costs can vary from period to period and impact comparability, and we do not believe such transaction costs reflect the ongoing performance of our business.
(b) Represents non-cash compensation expense related to stock option and restricted stock unit award grants, which can vary from period to period based on several factors, including the timing, quantity and grant date fair value of the awards. Also includes $0.1 million of compensation expense that was recognized for the cancellation of P-Unit Awards in relation to our purchase of the minority interest in Centrum for the three months ended March 31, 2025. There was no equivalent compensation expense included within for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
(c) Represents the non-cash change in the fair value of the warrant liability established for warrants included in our financing arrangements, which are remeasured at fair value each reporting period.
(d) Restructuring and contract termination costs represent severance costs as part of a workforce reduction, amounts paid for early termination of leases, and impairment of certain long-lived assets primarily relating to our decision to exit the Commercial business for the 2023 plan year.
(e) Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of our operations classified as held-for-sale that were subsequently sold in November 2024; the comparable 2024 period has been recast to exclude these impacts.
(f) Represents the costs expected to be incurred as a result of one of our ACO REACH care partners filing for bankruptcy; includes the full allowance established for the outstanding receivable and ongoing costs incurred to manage and provide service to members attributed to the care partner that would have otherwise been reimbursed prior to the care partner's bankruptcy.
(g) Adjustment has been updated to remove the impact of our held-for-sale operations that are adjusted for in their entirety as described in (e).
