On a per share basis, Operating Results was$0.73 in the 2024 Second Quarter compared to$0.76 in the 2023 Second Quarter, with the decrease attributable to the increase in shares outstanding associated with the Company’s secondary offering completed inMay 2023 . -

$7.5 million for the 2024 Second Quarter. In accordance with GAAP, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of taxes, is not included in net income but is charged directly to retained earnings; however, this change is included in the computation of earnings per share.

CONFERENCE CALL INFORMATION
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains statements that are considered to be forward-looking within the meaning under Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements contain forward-looking information relating to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our Company. These statements (often using words such as “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “appear”, “should” and similar words) involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those we expect. Included among such statements may be those relating to new clinics, availability of personnel and the reimbursement environment. The forward-looking statements are based on ourcurrent views and assumptions and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks, uncertainties, and factors, which include, but are not limited to:
- changes in Medicare rules and guidelines and reimbursement or failure of our clinics to maintain their Medicare certification and/or enrollment status;
- the impact of future public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, such as was the case with the novel strain of COVID-19 and its variants;
- revenue we receive from Medicare and Medicaid being subject to potential retroactive reduction;
- changes in reimbursement rates or payment methods from third party payors including government agencies, and changes in the deductibles and co-pays owed by patients;
- compliance with federal and state laws and regulations relating to the privacy of individually identifiable patient information, and associated fines and penalties for failure to comply;
- competitive, economic or reimbursement conditions in our markets which may require us to reorganize or close certain clinics and thereby incur losses and/or closure costs including the possible write-down or write-off of goodwill and other intangible assets;
- one of our acquisition agreements contains a put right related to a future purchase of a majority interest in a separate company;
- the impact of future vaccinations and/or testing mandates at the federal, state and/or local level, which could have an adverse impact on staffing, revenue, costs and the results of operations;
- our debt and financial obligations could adversely affect our financial condition, our ability to obtain future financing and our ability to operate our business;
- changes as the result of government enacted national healthcare reform;
- business and regulatory conditions including federal and state regulations;
- governmental and other third party payor inspections, reviews, investigations and audits, which may result in sanctions or reputational harm and increased costs;
- revenue and earnings expectations;
- some of our acquisition agreements contain contingent consideration, the value of which may impact future financial results;
- legal actions, which could subject us to increased operating costs and uninsured liabilities;
- general economic conditions, including but not limited to inflationary and recessionary periods;
-
actual or perceived events involving banking volatility or limited liability, defaults or other adverse developments that affect the
U.S. or international financial systems, may result in market wide liquidity problems which could have a material and adverse impact on our available cash and results of operations; - our business depends on hiring, training, and retaining qualified employees;
- availability and cost of qualified physical therapists;
- competitive environment in the industrial injury prevention services business, which could result in the termination or non-renewal of contractual service arrangements and other adverse financial consequences for that service line;
- our ability to identify and complete acquisitions, and the successful integration of the operations of the acquired businesses;
- impact on the business and cash reserves resulting from retirement or resignation of key partners and resulting purchase of their non-controlling interest (minority interests);
- maintaining our information technology systems with adequate safeguards to protect against cyber-attacks;
- a security breach of our or our third-party vendors’ information technology systems may subject us to potential legal action and reputational harm and may result in a violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or may interfere with our ability to file and process claims for payment which could interfere with our collection of revenues from third party payors;
- enforcing our noncompetition covenants;
- maintaining clients for which we perform management, industrial injury prevention related services, and other services, as a breach or termination of those contractual arrangements by such clients could cause operating results to be less than expected;
- maintaining adequate internal controls;
- maintaining necessary insurance coverage;
- availability, terms, and use of capital; and
- weather and other seasonal factors.
Many factors are beyond our control. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. For additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in our forward-looking statements, please refer to “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended

ADJUSTED EBITDA AND OPERATING RESULTS
The following tables provide details of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results (non-GAAP measures). Management believes providing Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results to investors is useful information for comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have different equity structures. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results, which eliminate certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as the principal measures to evaluate and monitor financial performance period over period.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, Relief Funds, changes in revaluation of put-right liability, equity-based awards compensation expense, clinic closure costs, other income and related portions for non-controlling interests.
Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH shareholders less, changes in revaluation of a put-right liability, Relief Funds, clinic closure costs, changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, and any allocations to non-controlling interests, all net of taxes. Operating Results per share also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact.
Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.
