Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(1) General Information
AdaptHealth Corp. and subsidiaries ("AdaptHealth" or the "Company") is a national leader in providing patient-centered, healthcare-at-home solutions including home medical equipment ("HME"), medical supplies, and related services. AdaptHealth focuses primarily on providing (i) sleep therapy equipment, supplies and related services (including CPAP and bi PAP services) to individuals suffering from obstructive sleep apnea ("OSA"), (ii) medical devices and supplies to patients for the treatment of diabetes (including continuous glucose monitors ("CGM") and insulin pumps), (iii) home medical equipment to patients discharged from acute care and other facilities, (iv) oxygen and related chronic therapy services in the home, and (v) other HME devices and supplies on behalf of chronically ill patients with wound care, urological, incontinence, ostomy and nutritional supply needs. AdaptHealth services beneficiaries of Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurance payors.
The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the information set forth herein. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
There have been no material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
(a) Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial statements include all necessary adjustments for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.
(b) Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c) Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
(d) Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to revenue recognition and the valuation of accounts receivable (implicit price concession), income taxes and the tax receivable agreement, equity-based compensation, warrant liability, long-lived assets, including goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
(e) Valuation of Goodwill
The Company has a significant amount of goodwill on its balance sheet that resulted from the business acquisitions the Company has made. Goodwill is not amortized, rather, it is assessed for impairment annually and also upon the occurrence of a triggering event or change in circumstances indicating a possible impairment. Such triggering events potentially warranting an annual or interim goodwill impairment assessment include, among other factors, declines in historical or projected revenue, operating income or cash flows, and sustained decreases in the Company's stock price or market capitalization. Such changes in circumstance can include, among others, changes in the legal environment, reimbursement environment, operating performance, and/or future prospects. The Company performs its annual impairment assessment of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year. The impairment assessment can be performed on either a quantitative or qualitative basis. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. If determined necessary, the Company applies the quantitative impairment test to identify and measure the amount of impairment, if any. Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors, such as estimates of a reporting unit's fair value, including the revenue growth rates, discount rate, and control premium used to estimate the reporting unit's fair value, and judgment about impairment triggering events. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the annual or interim goodwill impairment test will prove to be accurate predictions of the future.
(f) Long-Lived Assets
The Company's long-lived assets, such as equipment and other fixed assets, operating lease right-of-use assets, finance lease right-of-use assets and definite-lived identifiable intangible assets, are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
Definite-lived identifiable intangible assets consist of tradenames, payor contracts, contractual rental agreements and developed technology. These assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be consumed. In addition to consideration of impairment upon the events or changes in circumstances described above, management regularly evaluates the remaining useful lives of its long-lived assets. The following table summarizes the useful lives of the Company's identifiable intangible assets:
| Tradenames |
5 to 10 years
|
| Payor contracts | 10 years |
| Developed technology | 5 years |
The Company did not recognize any impairment charges on long-lived assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
(g) Equity-based Compensation
The Company accounts for its equity-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, which establishes accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. Equity-based compensation expense related to these grants is included within general and administrative expenses and cost of net revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company measures and recognizes equity-based compensation expense for such awards based on their estimated fair values on the date of grant. For share-based awards with service only or service and performance conditions, the value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service period in the Company's consolidated financial statements. For share-based awards with only a service condition, equity-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For awards with performance conditions, equity-based compensation expense is recognized straight-line on a tranche-by-tranche basis over
10
Table of Contents
ADAPTHEALTH CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
the employees' requisite service period subject to management's estimation of the probability of vesting of such awards. If management determines that the performance conditions are no longer probable of achievement, the Company will reverse the previously recognized equity-based compensation expense in the period of determination. For awards with market conditions, the grant-date fair value is estimated using a monte-carlo simulation analysis, which is recognized straight-line on a tranche-by-tranche basis over the employees' requisite service period regardless of whether or the extent to which the awards ultimately vest. The Company does not estimate forfeitures in connection with its accounting for equity-based compensation, and instead accounts for forfeitures as they occur. See Note 10, Stockholders' Equity, for additional information regarding the Company's equity-based compensation expense.
(h) Business Segment
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company's CODM is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviewed the financial information for the periods covered in this report on a consolidated level for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance, and as such, as of September 30, 2024, the Company's operations constitute one operating segment and one reportable segment.
(i) Accounting for Leases
The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases("ASC 842"). ASC 842 requires the Company to recognize a lease liability, which represents the discounted obligation to make future minimum lease payments, and a corresponding right-of-use ("ROU") asset on its consolidated balance sheet for most leases, and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASC 842 applies to a number of arrangements to which the Company is a party.
Generally, upon the commencement of a lease, the Company will record a lease liability and a ROU asset. However, the Company has elected, for all underlying leases with initial terms of twelve months or less (known as short-term leases), to not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset. Lease liabilities are initially recorded at lease commencement as the present value of future lease payments. ROU assets are initially recorded at lease commencement as the initial amount of the lease liability, together with the following, if applicable: (i) initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and (ii) lease payments made to the lessor net of lease incentives received, prior to lease commencement.
Over the lease term, the Company generally increases its lease liabilities using the effective interest method and decreases its lease liabilities for lease payments made. For finance leases, amortization and interest expense are recognized separately in the consolidated statements of operations, with amortization expense generally recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term and interest expense recorded using the effective interest method. For operating leases, a single lease cost is generally recognized in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless an impairment has been recorded with respect to a leased asset. Lease costs for short-term leases not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease costs not initially included in the lease liability and ROU asset impairment charges are expensed as incurred. ROU assets are assessed for impairment, similar to other long-lived assets.
See Note 12, Leases,for additional information.
(j) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards update "ASU" No. 2024-02, Codification Improvements-Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements, which removes various references to concepts statements from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, and intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, Compensation-Stock Compensation ("Topic 718"), which provides illustrative guidance to help entities determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements within the scope of ASC 718. ASU 2024-01 is effective for annual periods beginning

after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes ("Topic 740"). This ASU improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities to disclose specific categories in the annual rate reconciliation as well as disclose income tax expense (or benefit) and the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting ("Topic 280"), which requires disclosure of incremental segment information, including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and to disclose how reported measures of segment profit or loss are used in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-05, Business Combinations-Joint Venture Formations ("Topic 805-60"), which requires that all entities that qualifies as either a joint venture or a corporate joint venture are required to apply a new basis of accounting. Specifically, the ASU provides that a joint venture or a corporate joint venture must initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date. ASU 2023-05 is effective for all joint ventures that are formed on or after January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rule, which requires registrants to provide climate-related disclosures in their annual reports and registration statements. The new disclosure requirements will be effective for the Company beginning with its annual report for the year ending December 31, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC stayed its final climate rule to allow for a judicial review of pending legal challenges. The Company is currently evaluating the impact these rules will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and will monitor the litigation progress relating to these rules for possible impacts on the disclosure requirements under the rules.
(2) Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenues for services and related products that the Company provides to patients for home medical equipment, related supplies, and other items. The Company's revenues are recognized in the period in which services and related products are provided to customers and are recorded either at a point in time for the sale of supplies and disposables, over the fixed monthly service period for equipment, or in the month in which eligible members are entitled to receive healthcare services in connection with at-risk capitation arrangements.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised good or service is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive from patients or under reimbursement arrangements with Medicare, Medicaid and third-party payors, in exchange for those goods and services.
The Company determines the transaction price based on contractually agreed-upon amounts or rates, referred to as explicit price concessions, adjusted for estimates of variable consideration, such as implicit price concessions, based on historical reimbursement experience. The Company utilizes the expected value method to determine the amount of variable consideration, including implicit and explicit price concessions, that should be included to arrive at the transaction price, using contractual agreements and historical reimbursement experience. The Company applies constraint to the transaction price, such that net revenue is recorded only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in the future. If actual amounts of consideration ultimately received differ from the Company's estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect net revenue in the period such adjustments become known.

Sales revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenues for the sale of sleep therapy equipment supplies (including CPAP resupply products), home medical equipment and related supplies (including wheelchairs, hospital beds and infusion pumps), diabetic medical devices and supplies (including CGM and insulin pumps), and other HME products and supplies are recognized when control of the promised good or service is transferred to customers, which is generally upon shipment for direct to consumer medical devices and supplies and upon delivery to the home for home medical equipment.
The Company provides certain equipment to patients which is reimbursed periodically in fixed monthly payments for as long as the patient is using the equipment and medical necessity continues (in certain cases, the fixed monthly payments are capped at a certain amount). The equipment provided to the patient is based upon medical necessity as documented by prescriptions and other documentation received from the patient's physician. The patient generally does not negotiate or select the manufacturer or model of the equipment prescribed by their physician and delivered by the Company. Once initial delivery of this equipment is made to the patient for initial setup, a monthly billing process is established based on the initial setup service date. The Company recognizes the fixed monthly revenue ratably over the service period as earned, less estimated adjustments, and defers revenue for the portion of the monthly bill that is unearned. No separate revenue is earned from the initial setup process. Included in fixed monthly revenue are unbilled amounts for which the revenue recognition criteria had been met as of period-end but were not yet billed to the payor. The estimate of net unbilled fixed monthly revenue recognized is based on historical trends and estimates of future collectability.
The Company receives a per member per month ("PMPM") fee under certain at-risk capitation arrangements, which refers to a model in which the Company receives a PMPM fee from the third-party payor, and is responsible for managing a range of healthcare services and associated costs of its members. In at-risk capitation arrangements, the Company is responsible for the cost of contracted healthcare services required by those members in accordance with the terms of each agreement. Capitated revenue contracts with payors are generally multi-year arrangements and have a single monthly stand ready performance obligation to provide all aspects of necessary medical care to members for the contracted period in accordance with the scope of the agreements. The Company recognizes revenue in the month in which eligible members are entitled to receive healthcare services during the contract term. The Company's revenue recognized under its capitation arrangements by core product line for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 is included in the table below. The Company's revenue recognized under its capitation arrangements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 is included in net sales revenue and net revenue from fixed monthly equipment reimbursements by core product line in the table below, which was immaterial for those periods.
The Company's billing system contains payor-specific price tables that reflect the fee schedule amounts in effect or contractually agreed upon by various government and commercial insurance payors for each item of equipment or supply provided to a customer. Revenues are recorded based on the applicable fee schedule. The Company has established a contractual allowance, referred to as an explicit price concession, to account for adjustments that result from differences between the payment amount received and the expected realizable amount. If the payment amount received differs from the net realizable amount, an adjustment is recorded to revenues in the period that these payment differences are determined. The Company reports revenues in its consolidated financial statements net of such adjustments.
The Company recognizes revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and contract assets on the consolidated balance sheets only when services have been provided. Since the Company has performed its obligation under the contract, it has unconditional rights to the consideration recorded as contract assets and therefore classifies those billed and unbilled contract assets as accounts receivable.
Fixed monthly payments that the Company receives from customers in advance of providing services represent contract liabilities. Such payments primarily relate to patients who are billed monthly in advance and are recognized over the period as earned.
The Company disaggregates net revenue from contracts with customers by payor type and by core product lines. The Company believes that disaggregation of net revenue into these categories depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The payment terms and conditions within the Company's revenue-generating contracts vary by payor type and payor source.

Accounts Receivable
Due to the continuing changes in the healthcare industry and third-party reimbursement environment, certain estimates are required to record accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. The complexity of third-party billing arrangements and laws and regulations governing Medicare and Medicaid may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded.
The Company performs a periodic analysis to review the valuation of accounts receivable and collectability of outstanding balances. Management's evaluation takes into consideration such factors as historical cash collections experience, business and economic conditions, trends in healthcare coverage, other collection indicators and information about specific receivables. The Company's evaluation also considers the age and composition of the outstanding amounts in determining their estimated net realizable value.
Receivables are considered past due when not collected by established due dates. Specific patient balances are written off after collection efforts have been followed and the account has been determined to be uncollectible. Revisions in receivable estimates are considered implicit price concession adjustments and are recognized as an adjustment to net revenue in the period of revision. The Company does not have any material bad debt expense.
Included in accounts receivable are earned but unbilled accounts receivables. Billing delays, ranging from several days to several weeks, can occur due to the Company's policy of compiling required payor specific documentation prior to billing for its services rendered. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company's unbilled accounts receivable was $29.9 million and $68.4 million, respectively.
(3) Acquisitions
The Company's acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method pursuant to the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, and are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since the respective acquisition date.
The Company did not complete any acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of three providers of home medical equipment ("HME") and acquired certain assets of the home medical equipment businesses of two providers of HME. The following table summarizes the consideration paid at closing for all acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands):

(5) Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets
Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. The change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2024was as follows (in thousands):
|
Gross carrying amount |
||
| Balance at December 31, 2023 | $ | 2,724,958 |
| Goodwill impairment | (13,078) | |
| Write off from sale of assets | (4,598) | |
| Balance at September 30, 2024 | $ | 2,707,282 |
Management is required to perform an assessment of the recoverability of goodwill on an annual basis and upon the identification of a triggering event. Triggering events potentially warranting an interim goodwill impairment assessment include, among other factors, declines in historical or projected revenue, operating results or cash flows, and sustained decreases in the Company's stock price or market capitalization. While management cannot predict if or when future goodwill impairments may occur, a non-cash goodwill impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results, net assets and the Company's cost of, or access to, capital. The Company did not identify any triggering events indicating a possible impairment of goodwill at September 30, 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company experienced a decline in its market capitalization as a result of a sustained decrease in the Company's stock price and also revised its financial projections. The Company considered these items to represent a triggering event and performed a goodwill impairment test as of September 30, 2023. Based on the results of the test performed as of that date, it was concluded that the estimated fair value of the Company's reporting unit was less than its carrying value, as such, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $511.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The non-cash goodwill impairment charges included in the table above, includes $6.6 million and $6.5 million recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, related to the disposition of certain immaterial custom rehab technology assets, which closed in the third quarter of 2024. The Company recognized an immaterial loss as a result of this transaction.
Identifiable intangible assets that are separable and have determinable useful lives are valued separately and amortized over the period which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be consumed. Identifiable intangible assets consisted of the following at September 30, 2024and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

(6) Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures("ASC 820"), creates a single definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities adjusted to fair value in the balance sheet are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Level inputs, as defined by ASC 820, are as follows:
| Level input | Input Definition |
| Level 1 | Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date. |
| Level 2 | Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. |
| Level 3 | Unobservable inputs that reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
The following table presents the valuation of the Company's financial assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value estimates presented herein are based on

Interest Rate Swaps
The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk by converting a portion of its variable rate borrowings to a fixed rate and recognizes these derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The valuation of these derivative instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash payments receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. To comply with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the Company's derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and the respective counterparties. The Company has determined that the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments made to its derivative contracts, which determination was based on the fair value of each individual contract, was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, all of the Company's derivatives held as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 7, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, for additional information regarding the Company's derivative instruments.

Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration
The Company estimates the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities by applying the income approach using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Level 3 instruments are valued based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company's own assumptions in measuring fair value. Each period, the Company evaluates the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration obligations and records any changes in the fair value of such liabilities in other income/loss in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. At December 31, 2023, contingent consideration liabilities of $6.9 million was included in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There were no contingent consideration liabilities as of September 30, 2024. A reconciliation of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities related to acquisitions for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows (in thousands):
| Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 | Beginning Balance | Payments | Change in Fair Value | Ending Balance | ||||
| Contingent consideration - Level 3 liabilities | $ | 6,850 | $ | (6,850) | $ | - | $ | - |
| Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 | ||||||||
| Contingent consideration - Level 3 liabilities | $ | 7,500 | $ | - | $ | 350 | $ | 7,850 |
Warrant Liability
The warrant liability represents the estimated fair value of the Company's outstanding private warrants. The fair value of the private warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. See Note 10, Stockholders' Equity, for additional discussion of the warrant liability and the material assumptions leveraged for the pricing model.
Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, other than the non-cash goodwill impairment charge discussed in Note 5, Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets, there were no fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis for the Company's non-financial assets.
(7) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company records all derivatives on its consolidated balance sheet at fair value. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding interest rate derivatives with third parties in which the Company pays a fixed interest rate and receives a rate equal to the one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR"). The notional amount associated with the Company's interest rate swap agreements that were outstanding as of September 30, 2024 was $250 million and have a maturity date in January 2026. The Company has designated its swaps as effective cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are recognized as acomponent of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders' equity and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivatives related to its interest rate swap agreements, which are designated as hedging instruments, as well as their classification in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2024and December 31, 2023(in thousands):
| September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||

In May 2022, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $200.0 million of the Company's Common Stock, which expired on December 31, 2023 (the "Share Repurchase Program"). The timing and actual number of shares repurchased depended upon market conditions and other factors. Shares of the Company's Common Stock were repurchased from time to time on the open market through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company purchased 631,953 shares of the Company's Common Stock for

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
$9.2 million under the Share Repurchase Program, which is reflected in Treasury Stock in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, as discussed in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, the Company issued 1 million shares from its Treasury Stock in connection with a litigation settlement.
Warrants
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 3,871,557 warrants outstanding, which have an expiration date of November 8, 2024. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for the issuance of Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. There were no warrants exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
The Company classifies its warrants as a liability in its consolidated balance sheets because of certain terms included in the corresponding warrant agreement. The estimated fair value of the warrants is recorded as a liability, with such fair value reclassified to stockholders' equity upon the exercise of such warrants. Prior to exercise, the change in the estimated fair value of such warrants each period is recognized as a non-cash charge or gain in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
A reconciliation of the changes in the warrant liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows (in thousands):
| Estimated fair value of warrant liability at December 31, 2023 | $ | 4,021 |
| Change in estimated fair value of the warrant liability | (1,800) | |
| Estimated fair value of warrant liability at September 30, 2024 | $ | 2,221 |
| Estimated fair value of warrant liability at December 31, 2022 | $ | 38,503 |
| Change in estimated fair value of the warrant liability | (31,886) | |
| Estimated fair value of warrant liability at September 30, 2023 | $ | 6,617 |
The warrant liability is classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets since the expiration date of the warrants is less than one year as of such dates.
Equity-based Compensation
In connection with the Company's 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"), the Company provides equity-based compensation to attract and retain employees while also aligning employees' interest with the interests of its stockholders. The 2019 Plan permits the grant of various equity-based awards to selected employees and non-employee directors. On June 20, 2024, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment and restatement of the 2019 Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company reserved under the 2019 Plan by 8,350,000 shares, to permit the grant of up to 18,350,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments and limitations. At September 30, 2024, 7,206,885 shares of the Company's Common Stock were available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.

Equity-Based Compensation Expense
The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $0.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, of which $0.4 million and $0.5 million is included in general and administrative expenses and cost of net revenue, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $4.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, of which $3.5 million and $1.0 million is included in general and administrative expenses and cost of net revenue, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $10.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, of which $8.4 million and $2.2 million is included in general and administrative expenses and cost of net revenue, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

At September 30, 2024, there was $31.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to equity-based compensation awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
As previously disclosed, by mutual agreement with the Company, the Company's former President resigned from all positions held with the Company on August 31, 2024 and the parties agreed that he will serve as a non-executive member of the board of directors until December 31, 2024. In connection with his termination of employment on August 31, 2024, 311,018 restricted stock units subject to time-based vesting conditions and 391,408 restricted stock units subject to performance-based vesting conditions that were unvested at the time of his resignation were forfeited. As a result of these forfeitures, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reversed $3.3 million of previously recognized equity-based compensation expense, which was recognized as a reduction to general and administration expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
As previously disclosed, by mutual agreement with the Company, effective June 30, 2023, Stephen Griggs resigned as Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

In connection with the accelerated vesting and modification, the Company recognized $4.0 million of equity-based compensation expense, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
(11) Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (Loss) Per Share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period on a basic and diluted basis. The Company computes diluted net income (loss) per share using the more dilutive of the treasury stock method and the two-class method after giving effect to all potential dilutive common stock.
The Company's potentially dilutive securities include potential common shares related to outstanding warrants, unvested restricted stock, outstanding stock options and outstanding preferred stock. See Note 10, Stockholders' Equity, for additional discussion of these potential dilutive securities.
Diluted net income (loss) per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except when the potential common shares have an antidilutive effect. The Company's outstanding preferred stock are considered participating securities, thus requiring the two-class method of computing diluted net income (loss) per share. Computation of diluted net income (loss) per share under the two-class method excludes from the numerator any dividends paid or owed on participating securities and any undistributed earnings considered to be attributable to participating securities. The related participating securities are similarly excluded from the denominator.
Computations of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share were as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

(2)For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the impact to earnings from the change in fair value of the Company's warrant liability is excluded from the numerator, and the corresponding security is included in the denominator, for purposes of computing diluted net loss per share. This adjustment is included as the effect of the numerator and denominator adjustment for this derivative instrument is dilutive as a result of the non-cash gain recognized for the change in fair value of this instrument during these periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, this adjustment is excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share under the treasury stock method since its inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

| Total | 19,833 | 17,883 | 20,100 | 17,883 |
(12) Leases
The Company leases its operating locations and office facilities under noncancelable lease agreements which expire at various dates through May 2038. Some of these lease agreements include an option to renew at the end of the term. The Company also leases certain office facilities on a month-to-month basis. In some instances, the Company is also required to pay its pro rata share of real estate taxes and utility costs in connection with the premises. Some of the leases contain fixed annual increases of minimum rent.
The Company's leases frequently allow for lease payments that could vary based on factors such as inflation and the incurrence of contractual charges such as those for common area maintenance or utilities.
Renewal and/or early termination options are common in the lease arrangements, particularly with respect to real estate leases. The Company's right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities generally include periods covered by renewal options and exclude periods covered by early termination options (based on the conclusion that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such renewal options and not exercise such early termination options).
The Company is also party to certain sublease arrangements related to real estate leases, where the Company acts as the lessee and intermediate lessor.
The Company leases certain of its vehicles through finance leases. The finance lease obligations represent the present value of minimum lease payments under the respective agreement, payable monthly at various interest rates.
The following table presents information about lease costs and expenses and sublease income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands). The amounts below, with the exception of interest on lease liabilities, are included in cost of net revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented. The interest on lease liabilities is included in interest expense, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented.

(13) Income Taxes
The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $8.1 million and an income tax benefit of $34.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $21.9 million and an income tax benefit of $30.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $1.0 million income tax benefit, and corresponding increase to net deferred tax assets, related to non-cash goodwill impairment charges totaling $13.1 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized a $39.9 million discrete income tax benefit, and corresponding increase to net deferred tax assets, related to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $511.9 million. See Note 5, Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets, for additional details.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had an unrecognized tax benefit of $3.2 million and $6.6 million, respectively.
Tax Receivable Agreement
AdaptHealth Corp. is party to a Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA") with certain current and former members of AdaptHealth Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("AdaptHealth Holdings"). The TRA provides for the payment by AdaptHealth Corp. of 85% of the tax savings, if any, that AdaptHealth Corp. realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) certain tax attributes of the corresponding sellers existing prior to the Business Combination; (ii) certain increases in tax basis resulting from exchanges of New AdaptHealth Units and shares of Class B Common Stock; (iii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of payments it makes under the TRA; and (iv) certain increases in tax basis resulting from payments the Company makes under the TRA. Under the TRA, the benefits deemed realized by the Company as a result of the increase in tax basis attributable to the AdaptHealth Holdings members generally will be computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes that the Company would have been required to pay had there been no such increase in tax basis.
At September 30, 2024, the Company's liability relating to the TRA was $290.2 million, of which $24.3 million and $265.9 million is included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2023, the Company's liability relating to the TRA was $291.6 million, of which $1.5 million and $290.1 million is included in other liabilities and other long-term liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
(14) Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business that cover a wide range of matters. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If there is no probable estimate within a range of reasonably possible outcomes, the Company's policy is to record at the low end of the range of such reasonably possible outcomes. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews its accruals at least

quarterly and adjusts accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. At this time, the Company has no material accruals related to lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, except as disclosed below. While there can be no assurance, based on the Company's evaluation of information currently available, the Company's management believes any liability that may ultimately result from resolution of such loss contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial conditions or results of operations. However, the Company's assessment may be affected by limited information. Accordingly, the Company's assessment may change in the future based upon availability of new information and further developments in the proceedings of such matters. The results of legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and material adverse outcomes are possible. Professional legal fees are expensed as they are incurred.
On July 29, 2021, Robert Charles Faille Jr., a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a purported class action complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for alleged violations of the federal securities laws arising from allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failures to disclose material information regarding changes made to the methodology used to calculate the Company's organic growth trajectory. On October 14, 2021, the court appointed Delaware County Employees Retirement System and the Bucks County Employees Retirement System as Lead Plaintiffs. On November 22, 2021, Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors on behalf of shareholders that purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's stock and options between November 8, 2019 and July 16, 2021 (as to the complaint, the "Consolidated Complaint"; as to the action, the "Consolidated Class Action"). The Consolidated Complaint generally alleged that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failing to disclose material information regarding changes made to the methodology used to calculate the Company's organic growth trajectory and the Company's former Co-CEO's alleged tax fraud arising from certain past private activity. The Consolidated Complaint sought unspecified damages. On January 20, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Complaint, which the court denied on June 9, 2022. On June 7, 2023, the court entered an order staying the Consolidated Class Action pending the outcome of a private mediation between the parties.
On February 26, 2024, the defendants entered into a stipulation and agreement of settlement with the Lead Plaintiffs (the "Securities Settlement"). On March 5, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. On July 10, 2024, the court entered a judgment approving the class action settlement. The judgment certified the putative class for settlement purpose, found that the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate in all respects, and subject to certain exclusions and limitations, released claims on behalf of the settlement class that were asserted or could have been asserted in the Consolidated Class Action against the defendants. The Company's portion of the settlement consists of (i) $32.2 million of cash from the Company's insurance carriers; (ii) $17.8 million of cash from the Company; (iii) 1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Settlement Shares"), which had a fair value of $7.3 million recognized at December 31, 2023; and (iv) the implementation of certain corporate governance reforms. All of the aforementioned cash consideration has been paid consistent with the Securities Settlement during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, prior to the court approval of the class action settlement on July 10, 2024, the Company recognized a pre-tax expense of $2.4 million for the change in fair value of the Settlement Shares, which is included in other loss, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. In July 2024, the Company issued the Settlement Shares from available Treasury Stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with AdaptHealth Corp.'s ("AdaptHealth" or the "Company") consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this report. All amounts presented are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), except as noted. In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from management's expectations. Factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors", in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024. Certain amounts that appear in this section may not sum due to rounding.
AdaptHealth Corp. Overview
AdaptHealth is a national leader in providing patient-centered, healthcare-at-home solutions including home medical equipment ("HME"), medical supplies, and related services. The Company focuses primarily on providing (i) sleep therapy equipment, supplies and related services (including CPAP and bi PAP services) to individuals suffering from obstructive sleep apnea ("OSA"), (ii) medical devices and supplies to patients for the treatment of diabetes (including continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps), (iii) home medical equipment to patients discharged from acute care and other facilities, (iv) oxygen and related chronic therapy services in the home, and (v) other HME devices and supplies on behalf of chronically ill patients with wound care, urological, incontinence, ostomy and nutritional supply needs. The Company services beneficiaries of Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurance payors. As of September 30, 2024, AdaptHealth serviced approximately 4.2 million patients annually in all 50 states through its network of approximately 670 locations in 47 states. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 220 West Germantown Pike, Suite 250, Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania 19462.
Impact of Inflation
The cost to manufacture and distribute the equipment and products that AdaptHealth provides to patients is influenced by the cost of materials, labor, and transportation, including fuel costs. Current and future inflationary effects may be driven by, among other things, general inflationary cost increases, supply chain disruptions and governmental stimulus or fiscal policies. Increases in inflation could impact the overall demand for AdaptHealth's products and services, availability of materials, its costs for labor, equipment and products, shipping, warehousing and other operational overhead and the margins it is able to realize on its products, all of which could have an adverse impact on AdaptHealth's business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Additionally, it is not certain whether AdaptHealth would be able to pass increased costs onto customers to offset inflationary pressures. AdaptHealth has experienced inflationary pressure and higher costs as a result of increased cost of materials, labor and transportation. The increase in the cost of equipment and products is due in part to higher cost of shipping and general inflationary cost increases. Although there have been increases in inflation, AdaptHealth cannot predict whether these trends will continue. AdaptHealth's mitigation efforts relating to these inflationary pressures include utilizing AdaptHealth's purchasing power in negotiations with vendors and the increased use of technology to drive operating efficiencies and control costs, such as AdaptHealth's digital platform for prescriptions, orders and delivery.
Key Components of Operating Results
Net Revenue. Net revenue is recognized for services and related products that AdaptHealth provides to patients for home healthcare equipment, medical supplies to the home and related services. AdaptHealth' s primary product lines are (i) sleep therapy equipment, supplies and related services (including CPAP and bi PAP services) to individuals suffering from OSA, (ii) medical devices and supplies to patients for the treatment of diabetes (including continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps), (iii) home medical equipment to patients discharged from acute care and other facilities, (iv) oxygen and related chronic therapy services in the home, and (v) other HME devices and supplies on behalf of chronically ill patients with wound care, urological, incontinence, ostomy and nutritional supply needs. Revenues are recognized either at a point in time for the sale of supplies and disposables, over the service period for equipment rental (including, but not limited to, CPAP machines, hospital beds, wheelchairs and other equipment), net of implicit price concessions for amounts estimated to be received from patients or under reimbursement arrangements with Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payors, including private insurers, or in the month in which eligible members are entitled to receive healthcare services in connection with at-risk capitation arrangements. Certain trends or uncertainties that may have a material impact on revenue growth and operating results include the Company's ability to obtain new patient starts and to generate referrals from patient referral sources and the ability to meet the increased demand considering inflationary pressures.

Cost of Net Revenue. Cost of net revenue primarily includes the cost of non-capitalized medical equipment and supplies, distribution expenses, labor costs, facilities and vehicle rental costs, revenue cycle management costs and depreciation for capitalized patient equipment. Distribution expenses represent the cost incurred to coordinate and deliver products and services to the patients. Included in distribution expenses are leasing, maintenance, licensing and fuel costs for the vehicle fleet; salaries, benefits and other costs related to drivers and dispatch personnel; and amounts paid to couriers.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of corporate support costs including information technology, human resources, finance, contracting, legal, compliance, equity-based compensation, and other administrative costs.
Depreciation and Amortization, Excluding Patient Equipment Depreciation. Depreciation expense includes depreciation charges for capital assets other than patient equipment (which is included as part of the cost of net revenue). Amortization expense includes amortization of identifiable intangible assets.
Factors Affecting AdaptHealth's Operating Results
AdaptHealth's operating results and financial performance are influenced by certain unique events during the periods discussed herein, including the following:
Goodwill Impairment
AdaptHealth has a significant amount of goodwill on its balance sheet that resulted from the business acquisitions AdaptHealth has made. Goodwill is not amortized, rather, it is assessed for impairment annually and upon the occurrence of a triggering event or change in circumstances indicating a possible impairment. Such triggering events potentially warranting an annual or interim goodwill impairment assessment include, among other factors, declines in historical or projected revenue, operating income or cash flows, and sustained decreases in AdaptHealth's stock price or market capitalization. Such changes in circumstance can include, among others, changes in the legal environment, reimbursement environment, operating performance, and/or future prospects. AdaptHealth performs its annual impairment assessment of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year. The impairment assessment can be performed on either a quantitative or qualitative basis. AdaptHealth first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. If determined necessary, AdaptHealth applies the quantitative impairment test to identify and measure the amount of impairment, if any. Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors, such as estimates of a reporting unit's fair value, including the revenue growth rates, discount rate, and control premium used to estimate the reporting unit's fair value, and judgment about impairment triggering events. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the annual or interim goodwill impairment test will prove to be accurate predictions of the future.
Seasonality
AdaptHealth's business experiences some seasonality. Its patients are generally responsible for a greater percentage of the cost of their treatment or therapy during the early months of the year due to co-insurance, co-payments and deductibles, and therefore may defer treatment and services of certain therapies until meeting their annual deductibles. In addition, changes to employer insurance coverage often go into effect at the beginning of each calendar year which may impact eligibility requirements and delay or defer treatment. Also, net revenue generated by the Company's diabetes product line is typically higher in the fourth quarter compared to the earlier part of the year due to the timing of when patients meet their annual deductibles and their associated reordering patterns. These factors may lead to lower net revenue and cash flow in the early part of the year versus the latter half of the year. Additionally, the increased incidence of respiratory infections during the winter season may result in initiation of additional respiratory services such as oxygen therapy for certain patient populations. AdaptHealth's quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future depending on these and other factors.
Key Business Metrics
AdaptHealth focuses on Net revenue, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as it reviews its performance. Refer to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow included in the Non-GAAP measures section below.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
AdaptHealth uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, to analyze its financial results and believes that they are useful to investors, as a supplement to U.S. GAAP measures. In addition, AdaptHealth's ability to incur additional indebtedness and make investments under its existing credit agreement is governed, in part, by its ability to satisfy tests based on a variation of Adjusted EBITDA.
44
Table of Contents
AdaptHealth defines EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to AdaptHealth Corp., plus net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, interest expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, including patient equipment depreciation.
AdaptHealth defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (as defined above), plus equity-based compensation expense, change in fair value of the warrant liability, goodwill impairment, loss on extinguishment of debt, litigation settlement expense, and certain other non-recurring items of expense or income.
AdaptHealth defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) as a percentage of net revenue.
AdaptHealth believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to investors in evaluating AdaptHealth's financial performance. AdaptHealth uses Adjusted EBITDA as the profitability measure in its incentive compensation plans that have a profitability component and to evaluate acquisition opportunities, where it is most often used for purposes of contingent consideration arrangements.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of AdaptHealth's liquidity.

Free Cash Flow
AdaptHealth uses free cash flow, which is a financial measure that is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP, in its operational and financial decision-making and believes free cash flow is useful to investors because similar measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, ratings agencies and other interested parties to evaluate AdaptHealth's competitors and to measure the ability of companies to service their debt. AdaptHealth's presentation of free cash flow should not be construed as a measure of liquidity or discretionary cash available to AdaptHealth to fund its cash needs, including investing in the growth of its business and meeting its obligations.
Free cash flow should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, this key business metric has limitations as an analytical tool. It should not be considered as an alternative to any performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of AdaptHealth's liquidity.
AdaptHealth defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for purchases of equipment and other fixed assets. For further discussion on free cash flow, including a reconciliation from cash flows provided by operating activities, see Liquidity and Capital Resources - Free Cash Flowbelow.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
AdaptHealth's principal sources of liquidity are its operating cash flows, borrowings under its credit agreements and other debt arrangements, and proceeds from equity issuances. AdaptHealth has used these funds to meet its capital requirements, which primarily consist of capital expenditures including patient equipment, product and supply costs, salaries, labor, benefits and other employee-related costs, third-party customer service, billing and collections and logistics costs, acquisitions and debt service, and to fund share repurchases. AdaptHealth's future capital expenditure requirements will depend on many factors, including its patient volume and revenue growth rates.
AdaptHealth's capital expenditures are made in advance of patients beginning service. Certain operating costs are incurred at the beginning of the equipment service period and during initial patient set up.
AdaptHealth believes that its expected operating cash flows, together with its existing cash and amounts available under its existing credit agreement, will continue to be sufficient to fund its operations and growth strategies for at least the next twelve months.

AdaptHealth may seek additional equity or debt financing in connection with the growth of its business, primarily for acquisitions. In addition, economic conditions may cause disruption in the capital markets, which could make financing more difficult and/or expensive. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, AdaptHealth may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all. If additional capital is unavailable when desired, AdaptHealth's business, results of operations, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
As of September 30, 2024, AdaptHealth had approximately $100.2 million of cash.
In September 2024, AdaptHealth entered into an amendment to its then existing credit agreement (as amended, the "2024 Credit Agreement"). As of September 30, 2024, AdaptHealth had $600.0 million outstanding under the 2024 Credit Agreement. The 2024 Credit Agreement includes a $650 million term loan (the "2024 Term Loan") and $300 million in revolving credit commitments with a $55.0 million letter of credit sublimit (the "2024 Revolver", and together with the 2024 Term Loan, the "2024 Credit Facility"). The 2024 Credit Facility matures in September 2029. However, if the 6.125% Senior Notes (as defined below) have not been refinanced (to extend the maturity date to a date that is later than December 13, 2029) or repaid in full, on or prior to December 31, 2027, then the 2024 Credit Facility will mature on May 1, 2028; and, if the 4.625% Senior Notes (as defined below) have not been refinanced (to extend the maturity date to a date that is later than December 13, 2029) or repaid in full, on or prior to December 31, 2028, then the 2024 Credit Facility will mature on May 1, 2029. As of September 30, 2024, the outstanding borrowing under the 2024 Term Loan requires quarterly principal repayments of $4.1 million through September 30, 2026, increasing to $8.1 million from December 31, 2026 through June 30, 2029, and the remaining unpaid principal balance is due in September 2029. In September 2024, AdaptHealth made a voluntary repayment on the 2024 Term Loan of $50.0 million. At September 30, 2024, there was $600.0 million outstanding under the 2024 Term Loan. Borrowings under the 2024 Revolver may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including for capital expenditures and acquisitions permitted under the 2024 Credit Agreement. AdaptHealth had no borrowings under the 2024 Revolver. At September 30, 2024, there was $22.4 million outstanding under letters of credit. As of the date of this filing, there were no outstanding borrowings under the 2024 Revolver. At September 30, 2024, based on the financial debt covenants under the 2024 Credit Agreement, the maximum amount AdaptHealth could borrow under the 2024 Revolver and remain in compliance with the financial debt covenants under the agreement was $277.6 million.
At the option of AdaptHealth, amounts borrowed under the 2024 Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates based upon either the Base Rate (as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement), payable quarterly, or Term SOFR (as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement), payable monthly or every three months depending on the interest period selected. Interest periods for Term SOFR loans are available for one, three, or six months at the option of AdaptHealth. Base Rate loans accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of (a) the Base Rate determined on each day (subject to a zero percent floor), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 2.25% per annum based on AdaptHealth's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement). Term SOFR loans accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of (a) Term SOFR for the applicable interest period (subject to a zero percent floor), plus (b) an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 3.25% per annum based on AdaptHealth's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio. The 2024 Revolver carries a commitment fee during the term of the 2024 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum of the actual daily undrawn portion of the 2024 Revolver depending upon AdaptHealth's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio.
Under the 2024 Credit Agreement, AdaptHealth is subject to a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things, impose operating and financial restrictions on AdaptHealth. Financial covenants include a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, both as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement. The 2024 Credit Agreement also contains certain customary events of default, including, among other things, failure to make payments when due thereunder, failure to observe or perform certain covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency-related events, and non-compliance with healthcare laws. AdaptHealth was in compliance with the applicable covenants in the 2024 Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2024.
Any borrowing under the 2024 Credit Agreement may be repaid, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs, and any amounts repaid under the 2024 Revolver may be reborrowed. Mandatory prepayments are required under the 2024 Revolver when borrowings and letter of credit usage exceed the total commitments for revolving credit loans. Mandatory prepayments are also required in connection with certain dispositions of assets and receipt of certain insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the extent proceeds thereof are not reinvested, and unpermitted debt transactions.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $391.4 million and $325.4 million, respectively, an increase of $66.0 million. The increase was the result of a $464.6 million increase in net income, a net decrease of $428.8 million in non-cash charges, primarily from goodwill impairment charges, depreciation and amortization, the change in the estimated fair value of the warrant liability, deferred income taxes, and the reduction in the carrying amount of operating and finance lease right-of-use assets, a payment of $1.9 million for contingent consideration in connection with an acquisition, and a net $32.1 million increase resulting from the change in operating assets and liabilities, primarily from the change in accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $223.4 million and $266.9 million, respectively. The use of funds in the 2024 period consisted of $228.7 million for equipment and other fixed asset purchases, partially offset by $5.3 million of proceeds from the sale of assets.

Free Cash Flow
The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||||||
| (in thousands) | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 | ||||
| (Unaudited) | ||||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 144,405 | $ | 98,833 | $ | 391,424 | $ | 325,400 |
| Purchases of equipment and other fixed assets | (59,556) | (77,086) | (228,719) | (248,816) | ||||
| Free cash flow | $ | 84,849 | $ | 21,747 | $ | 162,705 | $ | 76,584 |
Free cash flow was $84.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $21.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in free cash flow was due to higher net cash provided by operating activities, primarily due to a net increase in the source of cash from operating assets and liabilities. Free cash flow during the three months ended September 30, 2024 was positively impacted by cash collections of accounts receivable from certain pending claims related to the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident (see further discussion below). The increase in free cash flow was also, to a lesser extent, due to a decrease in, and timing of, purchases of patient medical equipment for operating requirements.
Free cash flow was $162.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $76.6 million for the ninemonths ended September 30, 2023. The increase in free cash flow was due to higher net cash provided by operating activities, primarily from funds received in connection with AdaptHealth's participation in the Optum Temporary Funding Assistance Program (see further discussion below). The increase in free cash flow was also, to a lesser extent, due to a decrease in, and timing of, purchases of patient medical equipment for operating requirements.
As previously disclosed, in February 2024, AdaptHealth learned that a cyber security threat actor had gained access to some of the information technology systems of Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, with which one of AdaptHealth's third-party software providers interfaces in connection with AdaptHealth's claims processing activity. UnitedHealth Group isolated the impacted systems upon learning of this threat and Change Healthcare suspended its claims processing activity with AdaptHealth's software provider. AdaptHealth has worked with its software provider to identify and implement alternative processes to help maintain its claims processing activity. This incident impacted the timing of collection of certain accounts receivable. Pending claims from this incident peaked shortly following the data breach, however, all pending claims have been processed and the impacted accounts receivable balances have been substantially collected by September 30, 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, AdaptHealth participated in the Optum Temporary Funding Assistance Program which was designed to provide short-term cash flow relief to providers impacted by the disruption in Change Healthcare's services. As of September 30, 2024, AdaptHealth received $40.7 million under this program which was repaid in October 2024. AdaptHealth has not incurred any fees, interest or other associated costs for participating in the program.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements requires its management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company's management bases its estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements which, in
51
Table of Contents
turn, could change the results from those reported. In addition, actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Critical estimates are those that the Company's management considers the most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations because they require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company's critical estimates in relation to its consolidated financial statements include those related to revenue recognition and valuation of goodwill. There have been no material changes in the Company's critical accounting policies and critical estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and critical estimates described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business that cover a wide range of matters. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If there is no probable estimate within a range of reasonably possible outcomes, the Company's policy is to record at the low end of the range of such reasonably possible outcomes. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews its accruals at least quarterly and adjusts accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. At this time, the Company has no material accruals related to lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, except as disclosed below. While there can be no assurance, based on the Company's evaluation of information currently available, the Company's management believes any liability that may ultimately result from resolution of such loss contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial conditions or results of operations. However, the Company's assessment may be affected by limited information. Accordingly, the Company's assessment may change in the future based upon availability of new information and further developments in the proceedings of such matters. The results of legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and material adverse outcomes are possible. Professional legal fees are expensed as they are incurred.
On July 29, 2021, Robert Charles Faille Jr., a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a purported class action complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for alleged violations of the federal securities laws arising from allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failures to disclose material information regarding changes made to the methodology used to calculate the Company's organic growth trajectory. On October 14, 2021, the court appointed Delaware County Employees Retirement System and the Bucks County Employees Retirement System as Lead Plaintiffs. On November 22, 2021, Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors on behalf of shareholders that purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's stock and options between November 8, 2019 and July 16, 2021 (as to the complaint, the "Consolidated Complaint"; as to the action, the "Consolidated Class Action"). The Consolidated Complaint generally alleged that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failing to disclose material information regarding changes made to the methodology used to calculate the Company's organic growth trajectory and the Company's former Co-CEO's alleged tax fraud arising from certain past private activity. The Consolidated Complaint sought unspecified damages. On January 20, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Complaint, which the court denied on June 9, 2022. On June 7, 2023, the court entered an order staying the Consolidated Class Action pending the outcome of a private mediation between the parties.
On February 26, 2024, the defendants entered into a stipulation and agreement of settlement with the Lead Plaintiffs (the "Securities Settlement"). On March 5, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. On July 10, 2024, the court entered a judgment approving the class action settlement. The judgment certified the putative class for settlement purpose, found that the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate in all respects, and subject to certain exclusions and limitations, released claims on behalf of the settlement class that were asserted or could have been asserted in the Consolidated Class Action against the defendants. The Company's portion of the settlement consists of (i) $32.2 million of cash from the Company's insurance carriers; (ii) $17.8 million of cash from the Company; (iii) 1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Settlement Shares"), which had a fair value of $7.3 million recognized at December 31, 2023; and (iv) the implementation of certain corporate governance reforms. All of the aforementioned cash consideration has been paid consistent with the Securities Settlement during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, prior to the court approval of the class action settlement on July 10, 2024, the Company recognized a pre-tax expense of $2.4 million for the change in fair value of the Settlement Shares, which is included in other loss, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. In July 2024, the Company issued the Settlement Shares from available Treasury Stock. In connection with the issuance, the Company eliminated the outstanding $9.7 million liability through a reduction to Treasury Stock and Additional paid-in capital of $17.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively.
On March 7, 2024, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with its directors and officers liability insurers to resolve a proceeding that the Company filed in Delaware Superior Court concerning coverage in connection with the Consolidated Class Action and the Derivative Action discussed immediately below. The insurance settlement exhausted $35.0 million in D&O coverage limits available to the Company for the policy period from November 8, 2020 to November 8, 2021.
On December 6, 2021, a putative shareholder of the Company, Carol Hessler (the "Derivative Plaintiff"), filed a shareholder derivative complaint against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (as to the complaint, the "Derivative Complaint"; as to the action, the "Derivative Action"). The Derivative Complaint generally alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Company by, among other things, allegedly causing or allowing misrepresentations and/or omissions regarding changes made to the methodology used to calculate the Company's organic growth and the Company's former Co-CEO's alleged criminal activity and engaging in insider trading. The Derivative Complaint also alleges claims for waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment. Finally, the Derivative Complaint alleges that certain of the individual defendants violated Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act by allegedly negligently issuing, causing to be issued, and participating in the issuance of materially misleading statements to stockholders in the Company's Proxy Statements on Schedule DEF 14A in connection with a Special Meeting of Stockholders, held on March 3, 2021, and the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, held on July 27, 2021. The Derivative Complaint seeks, among other things, an award of money damages.
On March 4, 2022, the parties to the Derivative Action stipulated to stay the Derivative Action pending final resolution of the Consolidated Class Action. On March 7, 2022, the court so-ordered the parties' stipulation.
On April 23, 2024, defendants entered into a stipulation and agreement of settlement with the Derivative Plaintiff. In exchange for full releases, the proposed settlement consists of (i) $0.9 million in attorneys' fees and expenses, which will be funded with cash from the Company; and (ii) the implementation of corporate governance reforms separate from those negotiated in Securities Settlement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a pre-tax expense of $0.9 million associated with the settlement, which is included in other loss, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a liability of $0.9 million relating to the settlement; such liability is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
On June 25, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement, and set the final approval hearing for November 13, 2024. Upon the effectiveness of the proposed settlement, the Company and its directors and officers as well as the other defendants named in the Derivative Complaint will be released from the claims that were asserted or could have been asserted in the Derivative Action, with certain limitations, by class members participating in the settlement. The Company has always maintained, and continues to believe, that it did not engage in any wrongdoing or otherwise commit any violation of federal or state securities laws or other laws. The settlement includes no admission of liability or wrongdoing and is subject to court approval. There can be no assurance that the settlement will be finalized and approved and, even if approved, whether the conditions to settlement will be satisfied, and the actual outcome of this matter may differ materially from the terms of the settlement described herein.
On May 2, 2022, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York issued a civil investigative demand to a subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. § 3733 ("FCA") surrounding whether the subsidiary submitted false claims in violation of the FCA related to its billing of, and reimbursements from, federal health care programs for ventilators provided to patients from January 1, 2015 to the present. The Company is fully cooperating with the investigation. Given the stage of the investigation, it is not possible to determine whether it will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our exposure to market risk relates to fluctuations in interest rates from borrowings under the 2024 Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2024, there was $600.0 million outstanding under the 2024 Term Loan, $22.4 millionoutstanding under letters of credit, and based on the financial debt covenants under the 2024 Credit Agreement, the maximum amount the Company could borrow under the 2024 Revolver and remain in compliance with the financial debt covenants under the agreement was $277.6 million.Amounts borrowed under the 2024 Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates determined in relation to the Base Rate (as defined) or Term SOFR (as defined), at our option. Due to the interest rates being variable, fluctuations in interest rates may impact our earnings. Based on our current level of debt, we estimate that a 100 basis point change in interest rates would have a $4.6 million annual impact on our net income (loss) before taxes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of September 30, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, during the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as further described below in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
As previously disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. The following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting were identified by the Company as of December 31, 2023:
•The Company uses a third-party service provider under a software as a service contract to initiate and process the majority of its revenue transactions. The service provider uses a subservice organization to consolidate and reformat transactional revenue data before it is recorded in the Company's general ledger. The Company obtains from the service provider a System and Organization Controls (SOC) 1 Type 2 report as part of the evidence used in its evaluation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Due to insufficient communication between the Company and the service provider regarding its expectations for controls over the activities of the subservice organization, the SOC 1 Type 2 report for the service provider did not provide evidence of design, implementation, and operating effectiveness of controls over the completeness and accuracy of the Company's transactional revenue data processed by the subservice organization. The Company also did not design and implement such controls on its own. Substantially all manual and automated controls within the revenue process rely on the integrity of the information processed by the third-party service provider and its subservice organization and, therefore, are also considered to be ineffective.
•The Company did not design and implement a three-way match control (comparing the purchase order, delivery receipt, and invoice) over its procurement of medical equipment inventory through a third-party distribution channel. Specifically, because these procurement transactions are initiated through technology that is not integrated with the technology utilized for vendor invoice payments, the Company was not able to reconcile the quantities of the equipment invoiced by its vendors to the quantities actually received which could affect the completeness, existence, and accuracy of the Company's cost of sales and the related accounts payable.
•The Company did not design and implement process-level controls over the determination of excess or obsolete medical equipment and other inventory balances. Specifically, the Company did not have a mechanism in place to track the movement and status of specific medical equipment and other inventory which could affect the valuation of its inventory.
Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, believes the interim consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financing Reporting
With respect to the material weaknesses that existed as of December 31, 2023, management continues to take steps to remediate such material weaknesses, including 1) working with the third-party service provider to ensure its SOC 1 Type 2 report includes evidence of implementation and testing of controls for all relevant sub-service providers impacting the revenue transactional data used by the Company, 2) completing the implementation of technology to bring the third-party distribution channel transaction information into one system to facilitate a three-way match of the purchase order, delivery

receipt and invoice, 3) expanding the implementation of a perpetual inventory system to a larger number of Company locations, and 4) using the information from the perpetual inventory system to support the determination of excess or obsolete medical equipment and other inventory. While management has completed a risk assessment to identify controls, the material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the enhanced controls have been fully implemented and determined to be operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except with respect to the changes in connection with the implementation of the initiatives to remediate the material weaknesses noted above, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
