(NASDAQ: LPNT) First Quarter Highlights: - Continuing strong financial performance - Quarterly EPS of $0.24 (excluding non-recurring gain) compared with $0.13 in the prior year - EBITDA margin increased to 22.0%, a 400bp increase over prior year - Increase in admissions of 9.9% - Increase in equivalent admissions of 8.4% - Recruited 202 physicians since Company's formation - Completed secondary equity offering of common stock LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPNT) today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001. For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, net revenues were $154.3 million, up 13.4% from $136.0 million a year ago. Net earnings for the quarter totaled $8.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share on 34.1 million average shares outstanding, versus $4.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share on 32.0 million average shares outstanding in the prior-year period, representing increases of 114.1% and 92.3%, respectively. The first quarter results include a $0.5 million pre-tax gain ($0.01 per diluted share) related to cash received from a previously impaired asset. Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, ESOP expense and minority interest (EBITDA) increased 38.9% to $34.0 million from $24.5 million in the same period last year. On March 22, 2001, LifePoint successfully completed a public offering of 3,680,000 shares of common stock at a price of $29 per share. The net proceeds of approximately $100 million, along with existing cash, will be used to fully repay the Company's outstanding bank indebtedness. The offering helps deleverage the Company, strengthen its balance sheet, and better position LifePoint to execute its strategy in the future. In commenting on the first quarter results, James M. Fleetwood, Jr., LifePoint's chairman and chief executive officer, said, "The momentum that we achieved during calendar year 2000 continued in the first quarter of 2001, resulting in record results and performance. We are pleased that, through the execution of our strategic plan, we have been able to provide benefits to our patients and communities, while adding to the Company's bottom line. We continue to believe there is additional value to be achieved through our continued focus on recruiting physicians, expanding services, controlling costs, and selective acquisitions." 2 A listen-only simulcast and replay of LifePoint Hospitals' first quarter conference call will be available on-line at www.lifepointhospitals.com and www.streetevents.com on April 24, 2001, beginning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

Numerous factors exist which may cause results to differ from these expectations. Many of the factors that will determine the Company's future results are beyond the ability of the Company to control or predict. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties relating to the Company, including without limitation, (i) possible changes in reimbursement to healthcare providers and insurers that may reduce payments; (ii) its ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel, including physicians; (iii) the geographic concentration of the Company's operations; (iv) risks associated with the Company's acquisition and disposition strategies; (v) the regulated nature of the healthcare industry; (vi) the highly competitive nature of the healthcare business; (vii) the potential adverse impact of government investigations and litigation involving the business practices of HCA (to the extent relating to periods prior to the Company's formation); and (viii) those risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
