Surgery Partners,Inc. (NASDAQ:SGRY) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial ConditionItem 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October11, 2018, Surgery Partners,Inc. (“Surgery Partners” or the “Company”) announced that it intends to raise $115 million of Incremental Term Loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) to fund an existing pipeline of potential transactions and to replenish proceeds spent in the first half of 2018.

While the Company is still in the process of closing its third quarter ended September30, 2018, in connection with the Incremental Term Loans, the Company is providing investors with the following preliminary unaudited estimates for the quarter:

· Surgical case volumes are projected to be in the range of 126,000 to 128,000 cases

· Same store revenues are projected to be up in the range of 9% to 11%, with modestly positive case volume growth and strong net revenue per case growth

· Revenues are expected to be in the range of $435 to $445 million

· Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $57 to $60 million

· Credit Agreement EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $259 to $262 million

Preliminary Unaudited Selected Financial Data

These preliminary expectations regarding surgical case volumes, same store and total revenues and Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA for the quarter ended September30, 2018 are the responsibility of management and are subject to quarter end and year-end adjustments in connection with the completion of our customary financial closing procedures, including management’s review and finalization and to accounting review procedures by our independent registered public accounting firm, which have not yet been performed. Consequently, the results should not be viewed as a substitute for our earnings release and Quarterly Report on Form10-Q, which are expected to be released no later than November9, 2018. Actual results may differ materially from our preliminary expectations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA are financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the Company’s definition and computation of these non-GAAP financial measures may vary from those used by other companies. These measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute or alternative to net income or loss, operating income or loss, cash flows from operating activities, total indebtedness or any other measures of operating performance, liquidity or indebtedness derived in accordance with GAAP.

The Company defines the term “Adjusted EBITDA” as income before income taxes adjusted for net income attributable to non-controlling interests, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, equity-based compensation expense, contingent acquisition compensation expense, transaction, integration and acquisition costs, reserve adjustments, loss on disposals and de-consolidations, net, gain on litigation settlements and certain other items that we do not believe are representative of our ongoing operations. Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA refers to Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted for the impact of hurricanes, synergies and certain other adjustments. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA to net income/loss for the period presented because management cannot reasonably predict with sufficient reliability all of the necessary components of net income/loss for the periods presented. The Company has excluded the items reflected in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA above from its projected Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA for the period presented and is likely to exclude these

items from Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement EBITDA in the future and may also exclude other similar items, the effect of which is uncertain but may be significant in amount. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts.
