Wayne DeVeydt, Chairman of the Board of Surgery Partners, noted, “The financial results we are reporting today reflect the strong execution that can be expected to continue into 2023. As the migration of high acuity surgical cases continues to our lower cost, high quality setting, we are poised to continue to capitalize on these broad industry trends and remain optimistic about achieving sustainable double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth.”
Eric Evans, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “With revenue growth of nearly 16% in the fourth quarter, we are reporting growth consistent with our expectations and reflecting the positive trajectory that we have experienced all year. Our teams remain focused on providing the highest clinical quality product to our patients and physicians as we continue to make investments in our core capabilities including physician recruitment, high-acuity service line development, and effectively managing the macro-economic environment with regards to inflationary pressure on labor and our supply chain while still achieving full year margin improvement. On a same-facility basis, net revenue grew nearly 11% in the quarter and 8% for the year, giving us significant momentum as we enter 2023. When coupled with our consistent and accretive deployment of capital, which totaled nearly $250 million in 2022, our growth trajectory is strong and gives us high confidence in in our 2023 guidance.”
Dave Doherty, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We are pleased to deliver these fourth quarter and full year results, which reflects our disciplined management approach and strong underlying business fundamentals. With the benefit of the November 2022 equity raise we have meaningfully lowered our debt leverage, improved free cash flow and decreased the risk associated with refinancing in this uncertain interest rate environment. As we entered 2023, our liquidity position is greater than $830 million, which enhances our confidence in our ability to navigate this current economic environment and continue to fund accretive M&A. With the momentum of these results, we are setting our initial guidance for 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to be greater than $425 million and revenue to be greater than $2.75 billion.”

Liquidity
Surgery Partners had cash and cash equivalents of $282.9 million and $342.0 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility at December 31, 2022.

Operating cash flows were $158.8 million for 2022, compared to $87.1 million for 2021. The increase in operating cash flows was driven primarily by the receipt of stockholder litigation proceeds of $32.8 million in 2022 and a DOJ settlement payment of $32.2 million made during 2021. Net operating cash inflows, defined as operating cash flows less distributions to non-controlling interests, was $12.0 million for the full year 2022.

(1) This amount includes transaction and integration costs of $19.7 million and $15.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, with no comparable costs for the three months ended December 31, 2021.
This amount includes transaction and integration costs of $47.5 million and $39.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $1.1 million and $6.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
(2) This amount includes litigation settlement costs of $3.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, with no comparable costs for the three months ended December 2021. This amount also includes other litigation income of $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and other litigation costs of $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021.
This amount includes gain on litigation settlement of $29.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, with no comparable gain in 2021. The amount also includes other litigation costs of $4.6 million and $5.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
(3) This amount includes the reclassification of $7.5 million of unrealized gains out of accumulated other comprehensive income into income related to the de-designation of a portion of one of the Company’s interest rate caps. This amount further includes fair value changes of undesignated derivatives.
(4) Reflects losses incurred, net of insurance proceeds received at certain surgical facilities that were closed following Hurricane Ian in September 2022 and Hurricane Ida in September 2021.
(5) We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to assess operating performance, make business decisions and allocate resources. Non-controlling interests represent the interests of third parties, such as physicians, and in some cases, healthcare systems that own an interest in surgical facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. We believe that it is helpful to investors to present Adjusted EBITDA as defined above because it excludes the portion of net income attributable to these third-party interests and clarifies for investors our portion of Adjusted EBITDA generated by our surgical facilities and other operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating our financial performance. We believe such adjustments are appropriate, as the magnitude and frequency of such items can vary significantly and are not related to the assessment of normal operating performance. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
(6) Represents the impact of grant funds recognized, net of amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.

(Unaudited)
From time to time, the Company incurs certain non-recurring gains or losses that are normally non-operational in nature and that it does not consider relevant in assessing its ongoing operating performance. When significant, Surgery Partners’ management and its Board of Directors typically exclude these gains or losses when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and in certain instances when evaluating performance for incentive compensation purposes. Additionally, management believes that certain investors and equity analysts exclude these or similar items when evaluating the Company’s current or future operating performance and in making informed investment decisions regarding the Company. Accordingly, the Company provides adjusted net gain (loss) attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net gain (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders as supplements to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net gain (loss) attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net gain (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to the comparable GAAP measures as presented in the consolidated financial statements.
The following table reconciles net income as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations to adjusted net gain (loss) attributable to common stockholders used to calculate adjusted net gain (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders:
