We are again raising our Adjusted EBITDA Outlook to reflect strong year-to-date performance and what we believe to be a positive trajectory for the remainder of the year."

"We outperformed in the third quarter and demonstrated our operating flexibility to manage returning volumes in the ER and perform high acuity, multi-specialty procedures on both an emergent and elective basis," said Saum Sutaria, M.D., Chief Executive Officer. "Even with COVID spikes in many of our markets, our approach has been very effective in navigating these impacts efficiently across our portfolio. As part of our efforts to remain ahead of service demands, we are enhancing capacity and increasing access to critical services and technology in our hospital markets while expanding our ambulatory business through organic growth and compelling additions to our platform. Our results demonstrate that we are building upon the momentum of prior quarters and cementing the progress of our multi-year journey."

COVID-19 Pandemic (COVID)

As previously disclosed, the Company has been experiencing operational and financial challenges associated with COVID.Tenet continues to manage COVID and its impact on operations.

Tenet remains committed to the highest standards of safety, with protocols focused on the protection of its patients, physicians and employees, including the distribution of COVID vaccines to its caregivers and the public at large.Operational teams monitor real-time data to ensure sufficient staffing, intensive care unit bed capacity and personal protective equipment (PPE).Outpatient facilities are also safely performing elective procedures, and the

Company's hospitals and ambulatory platform continue to follow all state and local guidelines concerning elective care.

The Company's dedicated focus on strategic cost reduction measures and corporate efficiencies continue to partially mitigate the impact of COVID, including the impact of lost revenues and higher costs related to the pandemic.

Revenues and Volumes

•Net operating revenues (which exclude grant income) in the Hospital segment were $4.030 billion in Q3'21, growth of 6.0 percent from $3.803 billion in Q3'20. The increase in revenues was primarily due to significantly higher volumes than in Q3'20, as well as higher patient acuity, favorable payer mix and pricing yield, partially offset by lower revenues given the sale of the Company's Miami-area hospitals on August 1, 2021.

•Same-hospital net patient service revenues were $3.599 billion in Q3'21, growth of 10.9 percent from $3.246 billion in Q3'20.

•Same-hospital net patient service revenue per adjusted admission increased 6.2percent year-over-year for Q3'21 primarily reflecting higher patient acuity, favorable payer mix and pricing yield.

The Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding grant income was 12.3 percent in Q3'21 compared to 7.8 percent in Q3'20.

(c) Same-facility system-wide revenues and statistical information include the results of the facilities in which the Ambulatory segment has an investment that are not consolidated by Tenet (of the 342 facilities at September 30, 2021, the results of 110 were accounted for under the equity method for unconsolidated affiliates).

Prior-period amounts for acquired facilities are included in analyses of same-facility system-wide growth rates.

(d) Includes volume changes for SurgCenter Development (SCD) facilities acquired in December 2020.

Revenues and Volumes

•The Ambulatory segment produced net operating revenues of $666 million in Q3'21, an increase of 17.9 percent compared to $565 million in Q3'20. This increase primarily related to higher volumes than in Q3'20, higher patient acuity, new service line growth and additional revenues associated with the SurgCenter Development portfolio acquisition completed in December 2020, partially offset by the sale of the urgent care centers and the realignment of the imaging centers under the Company's Hospital segment in the second quarter of 2021.

•Surgical business same-facility system-wide net operating revenues increased 4.2 percent in Q3'21 compared to Q3'20, with cases up 6.8 percent and revenue per case down 2.5 percent. The revenue per case decline, which was consistent with the Company's expectations, is attributable to the growth in lower acuity cases since the 2020 period.

Adjusted EBITDA

•Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $274 million in Q3'21 ($272 million excluding $2 million of grant income) compared to $215 million in Q3'20($228 million excluding the $13 million Q3'20 reversal of grant income).

•Adjusted EBITDA less facility-level noncontrolling interest (NCI) in Q3'21 was $178 million (both including and excluding grant income) compared to $138 million in Q3'20 ($146 million excluding the reversal of grant income).

Conifer Segment Results

Tenet's Conifer business segment provides comprehensive end-to-end and focused-point business process services, including hospital and physician revenue cycle management, patient communications and engagement support and value-based care solutions to hospitals, healthcare systems, physician practices, employers and other clients.

The Company continues to work on spinning off its Conifer segment. This transaction is expected to both enhance shareholder value and reduce the level of Tenet's debt through a tax-free debt-for-debt exchange.

Conifer segment results ($ in millions)	Q3'21	Q3'20	YTD Q3'21	YTD Q3'20
Net operating revenues	$314	$325	$943	$962
Adjusted EBITDA	$85	$96	$261	$256

Revenues

Conifer segment revenues in Q3'21 were $314 million compared to $325 million in Q3'20, a decline of 3.4 percent, primarily due to the previously disclosed Tenet contract changes, partially offset by volume recovery by its clients.

Adjusted EBITDA

Conifer generated $85 million of Adjusted EBITDA in Q3'21 compared to $96 million in Q3'20 primarily due to the Tenet contract changes. Conifer's Adjusted EBITDA margin was 27.1 percent in Q3'21.

•Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as net income available (loss attributable) to Tenet common shareholders before (1) the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, (2) net loss attributable (income available) to noncontrolling interests, (3) income (loss) from discontinued operations, (4) income tax (expense) benefit, (5) gain (loss) from early extinguishment of debt, (6) other non-operating income (expense), net, (7) interest expense, (8) litigation and investigation (costs) benefits, net of reinsurance recoveries, (9) net gains (losses) on sales, consolidation and deconsolidation of facilities, (10) impairment and restructuring charges and acquisition-related costs, (11) depreciation and amortization and (12) income (loss) from divested and closed businesses (i.e., health plan businesses). Litigation and investigation costs excluded do not include ordinary course of business malpractice and other litigation and related expenses.

•Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as Adjusted net income available (loss attributable) from continuing operations to Tenet common shareholders, divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding in the reporting period.

•Adjusted net income available (loss attributable) from continuing operations to Tenet common shareholders, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as net income available (loss attributable) to Tenet common shareholders before (1) income (loss) from discontinued operations, (2) gain (loss) from early extinguishment of debt, (3) litigation and investigation (costs) benefits, net of reinsurance recoveries, (4) net gains (losses) on sales, consolidation and deconsolidation of facilities, (5) impairment and restructuring charges and acquisition-related costs, (6) income (loss) from divested and closed businesses (i.e., health plan businesses) and (7) the associated impact of these items on taxes and noncontrolling interests. Litigation and investigation costs excluded do not include ordinary course of business malpractice and other litigation and related expenses.

•Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as (1) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less (2) purchases of property and equipment for continuing operations.

•Adjusted Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as (1) Adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing operations, less (2) purchases of property and equipment from continuing operations.

•Adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as cash provided by (used in) operating activities prior to (1) payments for restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs and litigation costs and settlements, and (2) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from discontinued operations.

The Company believes the foregoing non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and analysts because they present additional information on the Company's financial performance. Investors, analysts, Company management and the Company's Board of Directors utilize these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP measures, to track the Company's financial and operating performance and compare the Company's performance to its peer companies, which use similar non-GAAP financial measures in their presentations and earnings releases. The Human Resources Committee of the Company's Board of Directors also uses certain of these measures to evaluate management's performance for the purpose of determining incentive compensation. Additional information regarding the purpose and utility of specific non-GAAP measures used in this release is set forth below.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure, in part, because certain investors and analysts use both historical and projected Adjusted EBITDA, in addition to other GAAP and non-GAAP measures, as factors in determining the estimated fair value of shares of the Company's common stock. Company management also regularly reviews the Adjusted EBITDA performance for each operating segment. The Company does not use Adjusted EBITDA to measure liquidity, but instead to measure operating performance.

The Company uses, and believes investors use, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow as supplemental non-GAAP measures to analyze cash flows generated from the Company's operations. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors in evaluating its ability to fund distributions paid to noncontrolling interests or for acquisitions, purchasing equity interests in joint ventures or repaying debt.

These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Because these measures exclude many items that are included in the Company's financial statements, they do not provide a complete measure of the Company's operating performance. For example, the Company's definitions of Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow do not include other important uses of cash including (1) cash used to purchase businesses or joint venture interests, or (2) any items that are classified as Cash Flows From Financing Activities on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, including items such as (i) cash used to repay borrowings, (ii) distributions paid to noncontrolling interests, or (iii) payments under the Put/Call Agreement for USPI redeemable noncontrolling interest, which are recorded on the Statement of Cash Flows as the purchase of noncontrolling interest. Accordingly, investors are encouraged to use GAAP measures when evaluating the Company's financial performance.
