Balance Sheet, Liquidity, and Cash Flow

Full-Year 2026 Outlook

First quarter results were consistent with our expectations, and we are maintaining our fiscal 2026 outlook range. Our outlook excludes the impact of any future practice affiliations or acquisitions that have not yet closed. As a result, actual results may differ materially depending on the timing and number of future affiliations, de novo practice openings, or acquisitions completed during the year.

Our outlook includes 3.5% to 5.0% same practice revenue growth and approximately $2 million recurring public company costs we expect to incur in 2026. The outlook assumes continued patient demand across general and specialty services, stable reimbursement trends across commercial and government payors, ongoing recruitment and retention initiatives, and contributions from recently acquired and affiliated practices and de novos. We continue to monitor patient demand and labor market trends that could impact our outlook.
