Adjusted EBITDA contribution from ACO REACH is now expected in a range of $30 million to $35 million for fiscal year 2023. Management’s previous outlook for Adjusted EBITDA contribution from ACO REACH was $5 million to $10 million for fiscal year 2023.

Membership reflects management’s outlook for end of period, unless otherwise stated. agilon’s partnered ACO REACH entities are not consolidated within its financial results. Management’s outlook for Geography Entry Costs represent the corresponding expense included in the low-end and high-end of management’s outlook for Adjusted EBITDA.

We have not reconciled guidance for Medical Margin to Gross Profit or Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most comparable GAAP measures, and have not provided forward-looking guidance for net income (loss) in each case because of the uncertainty around certain items that may impact Gross Profit or net income (loss), including non-cash stock-based compensation.

______________

Includes direct geography entry costs, including investments to develop and expand our platform and costs in geographies that are in implementation and are not yet generating revenue and investments to grow existing markets. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, (i) $7.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively, are included in other medical expenses and (ii) $11.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively, are included in general and administrative expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, (i) $10.0 million and $3.7 million, respectively, are included in other medical expenses and (ii) $20.6 million and $10.4 million, respectively, are included in general and administrative expenses.

(2)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, includes taxes and related costs on stock option exercises for departed executives of $0.2 million and $1.4 million.

(3)

Includes interest income, non-cash accruals for unasserted claims and contingent liabilities, and transaction-related costs.

In addition to providing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

We define medical margin as medical services revenue after medical services expense is deducted. Medical services expense represents costs incurred for medical services provided to our members. As our platform matures over time, we expect medical margin to increase in absolute dollars. However, medical margin per member per month (PMPM) may vary as the percentage of new members brought onto our platform fluctuates. New membership added to the platform is typically dilutive to medical margin PMPM. We believe this metric provides insight into the economics of our capitation arrangements as it includes all medical services expense directly associated with our members’ care.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude: (i) income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) income tax expense (benefit), (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation expense, (vi) severance and related costs, and (vii) certain other items that are not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We reflect our share of Adjusted EBITDA for equity method investments by applying our actual ownership percentage for the period to the applicable reconciling items on an entity-by-entity basis.

Gross profit is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to medical margin. Net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in our business and facilitate evaluation of period-to-period operating performance of our operations by eliminating items that are variable in nature and not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance, allowing comparison of our recurring core business operating results over multiple periods. We also believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics we use for financial and operational decision-making. We believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial performance. Other companies may calculate medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently from the way we calculate these metrics. As a result, our presentation of medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
