Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

(As compared with the three months ended September 30, 2022)

GAAP net revenue of $318.8 million increased 2% from $313.9 million in the prior-year period. GAAP net revenue was driven by an increase in Performance Services segment revenue partially offset by a decline in direct sourcing products revenue. Refer to Supply Chain Services and Performance Services sections below for further discussion on the factors that impacted each segment during the quarter.

GAAP net income of $42.4 million decreased 1% from $43.0 million in the prior-year period primarily due to an increase in operating expenses and lower equity earnings in the current-year period offset by an increase in gross profit, primarily driven by lower logistics and products costs in the company’s direct sourcing products business, and a decrease in estimated effective income tax rate compared to the prior-year period.

GAAP diluted EPS of $0.37 increased 3% from $0.36 in the prior-year period due to a decrease in the portion of net income attributable to non-controlling interests as well as the aforementioned drivers affecting GAAP net income quarter-over-quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA of $105.7 million increased 5% from $101.1 million in the prior-year period primarily due to increases in each segment’s adjusted EBITDA. Refer to Supply Chain Services and Performance Services sections below for further discussion on the factors that impacted each segment during the quarter.

Adjusted net income of $64.9 million increased 15% from $56.2 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EPS of $0.54 increased 15% from $0.47 in the prior-year period primarily as a result of the same factors that impacted adjusted EBITDA as well as a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense and an increase in interest income partially offset by an increase in the non-GAAP estimated effective income tax rate from 26% to 27%.

Segment Results

(For the fiscal first quarter of 2024 as compared with the fiscal first quarter of 2023)

Supply Chain Services

Supply Chain Services segment net revenue of $210.8 million decreased 4% from $219.7 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting lower products revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, as described below.

Net administrative fees revenue of $149.0 million decreased 1% from $150.0 million in the prior-year period driven by a decline in the non-acute, or “Continuum of Care”, group purchasing organization (“GPO”) program due to lower than anticipated member purchasing in certain categories partially offset by a slight increase in purchasing in the acute GPO program. As the company anticipated, the overall group purchasing program was impacted by an increase in aggregate blended administrative fee share due to current market dynamics.

Products revenue of $50.6 million decreased 14% from $58.9 million in the prior-year period primarily due to continued excess market supply and members’ and other customers’ inventory levels which contributed to lower demand and pricing in the current year period.

Segment adjusted EBITDA of $115.0 million increased 2% from $113.2 million in the prior-year period primarily due to higher profit margin in the company’s direct sourcing business compared to the prior-year period driven by lower logistics and product costs partially offset by an increase in expenses in support of the GPO program and supply chain co-management business.

Performance Services

Performance Services segment net revenue of $108.0 million increased 15% from $94.2 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in revenue from enterprise license agreements in the current-year period compared with the prior-year period as well as growth in the company’s consulting services and certain of its adjacent markets businesses, including revenue contributions from the company’s acquisition of TRPN Direct Pay, Inc. and Devon Health, Inc. (collectively, “TRPN”) in October 2022.

Segment adjusted EBITDA of $21.8 million increased 14% from $19.1 million in the prior year period mainly due to the aforementioned increase in revenue partially offset by higher cost of sales for related revenues as well as an increase in expenses as the company continued to invest in certain of its adjacent markets businesses.

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Net cash provided by operating activities (“operating cash flow”) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $81.9 million increased from $74.8 million in the prior-year period primarily due to an increase in cash receipts as a result of higher revenue and collections in the current-year period and a decrease in payments for fiscal 2023 performance-related compensation compared to payments in the prior-year period. These increases were partially offset by a one-time dividend received from a minority investment in the prior-year period.

Net cash used in investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $21.3 million and $302.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $453.3 million compared with $89.8 million as of June 30, 2023, and the company’s five-year, $1.0 billion revolving credit facility had no outstanding balance. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to proceeds from the previously announced sale of the company’s non-healthcare GPO operations.

Free cash flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $35.9 million increased from $31.5 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to the same factors that impacted operating cash flow partially offset by an increase in purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to Premier’s Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Measures below and the supplemental financial information at the end of this release for information on the company’s use of non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation of reported GAAP results to non-GAAP results.

During the first three months of fiscal 2024, the company paid aggregate dividends of $25.8 million to holders of its Class A common stock.

Premier’s Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Measures

Premier uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash flow. These are non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We include these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate a comparison of the company’s operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide measures that, when viewed in combination with its results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we believe allow for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company’s business than GAAP measures alone. Management believes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA assist the company’s board of directors, management and investors in comparing the company’s operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period by removing the impact of the company’s asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of management (taxes), as well as other non-cash (impairment of intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments) and non-recurring items, from operating results. Adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA are supplemental financial measures used by the company and by external users of the company’s financial statements.

Management considers adjusted EBITDA an indicator of the operational strength and performance of the company’s business. Adjusted EBITDA allows management to assess performance without regard to financing methods and capital structure and without the impact of other matters that management does not consider indicative of the operating performance of the business. Segment adjusted EBITDA is the primary earnings measure used by management to evaluate the performance of the company’s business segments.

Management believes free cash flow is an important measure because it represents the cash that the company generates after payment of tax distributions to limited partners, payments to certain former limited partners that elected to execute a Unit Exchange and Tax Receivable Agreement (“Unit Exchange Agreement”) in connection with our August 2020 restructuring and purchases of property and equipment to maintain existing products and services and ongoing business operations, as well as development of new and upgraded products and services to support future growth. Free cash flow is important because it enables the company to seek enhancement of stockholder value through acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, investments in related or complimentary businesses and/or debt reduction.

Non-recurring items are items to be income or expenses and other items that have not been earned or incurred within the prior two years and are not expected to recur within the next two years. Such items include stock-based compensation, acquisition- and disposition-related expenses, strategic initiative- and financial restructuring-related expenses, remeasurement of TRA liabilities, loss on disposal of long-live assets, gain or loss on FFF put and call rights, income and expense that has been classified as discontinued operations and other expense.

Non-operating items include gains or losses on the disposal of assets and interest and investment income or expense.

EBITDA is defined as net income before income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, interest and investment income or expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization of purchased intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before merger and acquisition-related expenses and non-recurring, non-cash or non-operating items.

Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as the segment’s net revenue less cost of revenue and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of purchased intangible assets, merger and acquisition-related expenses and non-recurring or non-cash items. Operating expenses directly attributable to the segment include expenses associated with sales and marketing, general and administrative, and product development activities specific to the operation of each segment. General and administrative corporate expenses that are not specific to a particular segment are not included in the calculation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also excludes any income and expense that has been classified as discontinued operations.

Adjusted net income is defined as net income attributable to Premier (i) excluding income or loss from discontinued operations, net, (ii) excluding income tax expense, (iii) excluding the effect of non-recurring or non-cash items, including certain strategic initiative- and financial restructuring-related expenses, (iv) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on Non-GAAP net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for unusual or infrequent items and (v) excluding the equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates.

Adjusted earnings per share is Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average shares.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less distributions and Tax Receivable Agreement payments to limited partners, early termination payments to certain former limited partners that elected to execute a Unit Exchange Agreement in connection with our August 2020 restructuring and purchases of property and equipment. Free Cash Flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayments.

To properly and prudently evaluate our business, readers are urged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the other financial tables, included at the end of this release. Readers should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company’s business. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are susceptible to varying calculations and may differ from, and may therefore not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The Company has revised the definitions for Adjusted EBITDA, Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income from the definitions reported in the 2023 Annual Report. Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDA definitions were revised to exclude the impact of equity earnings in unconsolidated affiliates. The Adjusted Net Income definition was revised (1) remove the exclusion of the impact of adjustment of redeemable limited partners’ capital to redemption amount, (2) remove the impact of the exchange of all Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock for periods prior to our August 2020 Restructuring and the resulting elimination of non-controlling interest in Premier LP, and (3) add the exclusion of equity earnings in unconsolidated affiliates. For comparability purposes, prior year non-GAAP financial measures are presented based on the current definitions in the above section.

Further information on Premier’s use of non-GAAP financial measures is available in the “Our Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of Premier’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as may be updated in subsequent filings with the SEC.
