We delivered a 15% adjusted EBITDA margin, we narrowed our guidance range for the full year, and we ended the third quarter well-positioned to generate sustainable and profitable growth going forward," said Brandon Sim , Co-Chief Executive Officer of ApolloMed. "Today, we also announced our intent to acquire assets relating to Community Family Care Medical Group , which currently manages total cost of care for over 200,000 members, diversifying our membership mix and providing us a pathway to expand our value-based Care Partners business. Additionally, we announced two other provider group partnerships this quarter, which bring a combined membership of approximately 30,000, and our total number of provider group partnerships signed this year so far to five," continued Mr. Sim . Mr. Sim concluded, "During the third quarter, we continued to make strong progress against our key operational goals, successfully managing our value-based care population, and delivering high-quality care. Our platform's momentum is accelerating as we work towards our mission of ensuring that everyone across the country has access to high-quality and high-value healthcare, and I am very excited about our opportunities ahead."

This increases the Company's facility to $700.0 million with our existing $400.0 million revolver. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, among other changes, ApolloMed (i) increased the maximum levels of certain forms of permitted indebtedness, (ii) increased the maximum levels of certain forms of restricted payments, including the ability to pursue certain specified share repurchases (up to $300 million ) subject to certain conditions and (iii) increased the maximum levels for certain permitted investments. On November 6, 2023 , the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with Allied Physicians of California , a Professional Medical Corporation ("APC"), to repurchase approximately $100.0 million of the Company's common stock from APC. The Company intends to finance the share repurchase with borrowings under its Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. On November 7, 2023 , the Company announced that it and its affiliated professional entity have entered into an agreement to acquire assets relating to Community Family Care Medical Group IPA, Inc. ("CFC"), including the CFC independent physician association, the CFC Health Plan and CFC's management services organization entities. CFC manages the healthcare of over 200,000 members in the Los Angeles, California area, serving patients across Medicare, Medicaid, and Commercial payers and has a Restricted Knox Keene ("RKK") license for Medicaid members. The Company intends to finance the acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings under its Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The CFC acquisition remains subject to customary closing conditions. On November 7, 2023 , the Company announced a partnership with Associated Hispanic Physicians, a group of over 150 primary care providers and over 450 specialists in Los Angeles with around 25,000 Medicaid, Medicare, and Commercial members in value-based care arrangements, in order to support their group with our Care Enablement offering. We expect Associated Hispanic Physicians' providers will be onboarded onto our Care Enablement platform by March of 2024. On November 7, 2023 , the Company announced its expanded relationship with Advantage Health Network, a group of approximately 15 primary care providers and several hundred specialists in Los Angeles which supports around 4,500 Medicaid, Medicare, and Commercial members in value-based care arrangements. As part of the partnership, Advantage's providers are slated to join our Care Partners business. We also acquired five primary care clinics in the Advantage Health Network, which will be integrated into our Care Delivery business. On November 7, 2023 , the Company announced its strategic partnership with Wider Circle , a peer-based community health organization working with payers and providers to connect neighbors for better health. Under this partnership, the two organizations will provide comprehensive patient-centered care and Enhanced Care Management for Medicaid members with complex needs, an integral component of the California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal, or CalAIM, initiative.

Note About Consolidated Entities The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent third party equity ownership interests in the Company's consolidated entities (including certain VIEs). The amount of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the Company's consolidated statements of income. Note About Stockholders ' Equity, Certain Treasury Stock and Earnings Per Share As of the date of this press release, 41,048 holdback shares have not been issued to certain former shareholders of the Company's subsidiary, Network Medical Management, Inc. ("NMM"), who were NMM shareholders at the time of closing of the merger, as they have yet to submit properly completed letters of transmittal to ApolloMed in order to receive their pro rata portion of ApolloMed's common stock and warrants as contemplated under that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 21, 2016 , among ApolloMed, NMM, Apollo Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Subsidiary") and Kenneth Sim , M.D., as amended, pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary merged with and into NMM, with NMM as the surviving corporation. Pending such receipt, such former NMM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the merger. The Company's consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and ApolloMed is legally obligated to issue these shares in connection with the merger. Shares of ApolloMed's common stock owned by Allied Physicians of California , a Professional Medical Corporation d.b.a. Allied Pacific of California ("APC"), a VIE of the Company, are legally issued and outstanding but excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company's consolidated financial statements, as such shares are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate the Company's earnings per share. About Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. ApolloMed is a leading physician-centric, technology-powered, risk-bearing healthcare company. Leveraging its proprietary end-to-end technology solutions, ApolloMed operates an integrated healthcare delivery platform that enables providers to successfully participate in value-based care arrangements, thus empowering them to deliver outcomes-based medical care to patients in a cost-effective manner.

Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, such as statements about the Company's guidance for the year ending December 31, 2023 , ability to meet operational goals, ability to meet expectations in deployment of care coordination and management capabilities, ability to decrease cost of care while improving quality and outcomes, ability to deliver sustainable revenue and EBITDA growth as well as long-term value, ability to respond to the changing environment, and successful implementation of strategic growth plans, acquisition strategy, and merger integration efforts. Forward-looking statements reflect current views with respect to future events and financial performance and therefore cannot be guaranteed. Such statements are based on the current expectations and certain assumptions of the Company's management, and some or all of such expectations and assumptions may not materialize or may vary significantly from actual results. Actual results may also vary materially from forward-looking statements due to risks, uncertainties and other factors, known and unknown, including the risk factors described from time to time in the Company's reports to the SEC , including, without limitation, the risk factors discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 , and any subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws. Restatement In connection with a review of the Company's income tax filing structure, the Company identified unintentional errors in its accounting for the income tax effects of certain intercompany dividends and certain net operating losses, which resulted in an understatement of income tax expense in prior periods and also had an impact on purchase accounting (goodwill) as a portion of the net operating losses affected by the errors pertained to acquisitions in prior periods. As a result of the errors, the Company has restated the December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated statement of operations for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 .

These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to GAAP, and may be different from other non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure of our operations, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, stock-based compensation, and APC excluded assets costs. Beginning in the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 , the Company has revised the calculation for Adjusted EBITDA to exclude provider bonus payments and losses from recently acquired IPAs, which it believes to be more reflective of its business. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with relevant and useful information, as it allows investors to evaluate the operating performance of the business activities without having to account for differences recognized because of non-core or non-recurring financial information. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources, and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes. To the extent this release contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. The reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided above.
