NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any statements about our business, financial condition, operating results, plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions; any projections of earnings, revenue, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”) - diluted, free cash flow, or other financial items, such as our projected capitation from CMS, our forward-looking guidance, and our future liquidity; any statements of any plans, strategies, and objectives of management for future operations, such as the material opportunities that we believe exist for our Company; any statements concerning proposed services, developments, mergers, acquisitions, or dispositions; any statements relating to our completed Prospect acquisition; any statements with respect to dividends or stock repurchases and timing, methods, and payment of same; any statements regarding the outlook of the ACO REACH Model, the ACO LEAD Model, the MSSP, or strategic transactions; any statements relating to delayed payments under, or potential cuts to, Medicaid and/or Medicaid programs and/or changes in federal or state funding policies; any statements regarding management’s view of future expectations and prospects for us; any statements about prospective adoption of new accounting standards or effects of changes in accounting standards; any statements regarding our ability to remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; any statements regarding potential changes to our tax structure; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements relating to the potential impact of cybersecurity breaches or disruptions to our management information systems or widespread outages, interruptions, or other failures of operational, communication, and other systems; any statements of belief; any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing; and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terms, such as “anticipate,” “could,” “can,” “may,” “might,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “believe,” “think,” “plan,” “envision,” “intend,” “continue,” “target,” “seek,” “contemplate,” “budgeted,” “will,” or “would,” and the negative of such terms, other variations on such terms or other similar or comparable words, phrases, or terminology. These forward-looking statements present our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are subject to change.
4
Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict, are outside of our control, and are based on the current beliefs, expectations, and certain assumptions of management. Some or all of such beliefs, expectations, and assumptions may not materialize or may vary significantly from actual results. Such statements are qualified by important economic, competitive, governmental, and technological factors that could cause our business, strategy, or actual results or events to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026, including the risk factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A thereof. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change. Significant risks and uncertainties could cause actual conditions, outcomes, and results to differ materially from those indicated by such statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date it is made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws.

ASTRANA HEALTH, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Overview
Unless the context dictates otherwise, references in these notes to the financial statements to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words are references to Astrana Health, Inc. (“Astrana” or “Astrana Health”) and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated entities, as appropriate, including its consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”).
Headquartered in Alhambra, California, Astrana is a physician-centric, technology-enabled, healthcare management company. Leveraging its proprietary end-to-end technology solutions, Astrana operates an integrated healthcare delivery platform that enables providers to participate in value-based care arrangements, empowering them to deliver accessible, high-quality care to patients in a cost-effective manner. Together with Astrana’s affiliated physician groups and consolidated subsidiaries and VIEs, the Company delivers value-based care to patients, of whom the majority are covered by private or public insurance provided through Medicare, Medicaid, and health maintenance organizations (“HMOs”), with a small portion of its revenue coming from non-insured patients. The Company provides care coordination services to each major constituent of the healthcare delivery system, including patients, families, primary care physicians, specialists, acute care hospitals, alternative sites of inpatient care, physician groups, and health plans. The Company’s physician network consists of primary care physicians, specialist physicians, physician and specialist extenders, and hospitalists.
Segments
The Company’s
Care Partners
The Company’s Care Partners segment is focused on building and managing high-quality and high-performance provider networks by partnering with, empowering, and investing in strong provider partners aligned on a shared vision for coordinated care delivery. By leveraging the Company’s unique Care Enablement platform and ability to recruit, empower, and incentivize physicians to manage total cost of care effectively, the Company is able to organize partnered providers into successful multi-payer, risk-bearing organizations (“RBOs”) that take on varying levels of risk based on total cost of care across membership in all lines of business, including Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, Commercial, Exchange, and Medicare fee for service (“FFS”). The Company’s healthcare delivery entities in this segment consist of a network of RBOs that encompass independent practice associations (“IPAs”), accountable care organizations (“ACOs”), and state-specific entities such as Restricted Knox-Keene licensed health plans in California. These entities are tasked with coordinating and arranging high-quality care for patients within Astrana’s ecosystem. This helps ensure seamless continuity of care among patients in different age groups, stages of life, and life circumstances.
Care Delivery
The Company’s Care Delivery segment is a group of patient-centric, data-driven organizations focused on delivering high-quality, accessible care to all patients. This segment includes the following:
10
Care Enablement
The Company’s Care Enablement segment represents a comprehensive platform that integrates clinical, operational, financial, and administrative information, all powered by the Company’s proprietary technology suite. These tools are leveraged across the Company’s lines of business as well as third-party providers outside of Astrana’s ecosystem. The Company provides solutions to payers and providers, including independent physicians, provider and medical groups, and ACOs. The Company’s platform meets providers and payers wherever they are on the spectrum of total cost of care, offering solutions for FFS entities and providers open to taking upside and downside risks on professional and institutional spending and across all patient types, including Medicare, Medicaid, Commercial, and Exchange-insured patients. This segment includes the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries that operate as management services organizations (“MSOs”), which enter into long-term management and/or administrative services agreements (“MSAs”) with RBOs and other providers. By leveraging the Company’s Care Enablement platform, providers and payers can improve their ability to deliver high-quality patient care and achieve better patient, clinical, and financial outcomes.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all annual disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026, and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments as well as intercompany accounts and transactions, which have been eliminated) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading, as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026, or any future periods.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, and the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, include Astrana’s wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that users of the interim financial data have either read, or have access to, the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts disclosed in prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications were made to reclass investments in privately held entities within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025. These reclassifications were also made to reclass loss on debt extinguishment, unrealized loss on investments, and loss from equity method investments to other within net cash provided by operating activities; proceeds from repayment of promissory notes, including those with related parties, purchase of marketable securities, and distribution from investment – equity method to other within net cash used in investing activities; and payment of
11
finance lease obligations, proceeds from ESPP purchases, repurchase of subsidiary’s shares, and purchase of non-controlling interests to other within net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, earnings per share, retained earnings, cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, or financing activities, or total assets.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include collectability of receivables, recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets, business combinations and goodwill valuation and impairment assessment, accrual of medical liabilities (incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims), determination of hospital shared-risk and health plan shared-risk revenue and receivables (including estimations of affiliated hospitals’ claims costs which involves assumptions for IBNR, such as utilization of healthcare services, historical payment patterns, cost trends, seasonality, changes in membership, and other factors), income tax-valuation allowance, share-based compensation, and right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.
Business Combinations
The Company uses the acquisition method of accounting for all business combinations, which requires assets and liabilities of the acquiree to be recorded at fair value, to measure the fair value of the consideration transferred, including contingent consideration, to be determined on the acquisition date, and to account for acquisition-related costs separately from the business combination, which are expensed as incurred.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit. The Company considers all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and have original maturities of 90 days or less from their date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains its cash in deposit accounts with several banks, which at times may exceed the insured limits of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company’s deposit accounts with banks exceeded the FDIC’s insured limit by approximately $
Restricted cash consists of cash held as collateral in the event of default as required by certain health plan contracts. Restricted cash is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Receivables, Other Receivables, and Loans Receivable
The Company’s receivables are comprised of capitation receivables, ACO receivables, FFS receivables, risk pool settlements, incentive receivables, management fee income, and receivables from related parties. The Company’s receivables are recorded and stated at the amount expected to be collected.
Capitation receivables relate to each health plan’s capitation revenue and are usually received by the Company in the same month or the month following the month of service. ACO receivables are from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) related to the Company’s participation in the ACO REACH Model and Medicare Shared Savings Program (“MSSP”). Settlements for the current performance year are settled within the following fiscal year. FFS receivables involve the hospital and clinics. Both the hospital and clinics receive amounts from third-party payers and patients for patient care services, while the clinics additionally receive amounts from hospitals. Risk pool settlements and incentive receivables mainly consist of the Company’s hospital shared-risk pool receivable, which is recorded based on reports received from the Company’s hospital partners and management’s estimate of the Company’s portion of the estimated risk pool surplus for open performance years. Final settlement of risk pool surplus or deficits occurs within
The Company’s receivables from related parties are comprised of hospital-shared risk pool settlements with AHMC Healthcare Inc. (“AHMC”), for which one of the Company’s directors is an officer, and management fee income from equity method investments. Hospital-shared risk pool settlement receivables from related parties are recorded quarterly based on reports received from the Company’s hospital partners and management’s estimate of the Company’s portion of the estimated risk pool surplus for open performance years. Final settlement of risk pool surplus or deficits occurs within

The Company’s loans receivable consists of promissory notes that accrue interest per annum and are recorded and stated at amortized cost plus accrued interest. Interest income is accrued based on the outstanding principal amounts. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the balance of the Company’s aggregate loans receivable was $
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on the receivables. Management reviews the composition of the Company’s receivables and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. The Company also regularly analyzes the ultimate collectability of accounts receivable after certain stages of the collection cycle using a look-back analysis to determine the amount of receivables subsequently collected, and adjustments are recorded when necessary. Reserves are recorded based on historical trends. Any change in such an estimate of reserves is recorded in the period when such change is identified.
Receivables are recorded when the Company is able to determine amounts receivable under applicable contracts and agreements based on information provided, and collection is reasonably likely to occur. The Company continuously monitors its receivable collections and expects that the historical credit loss experienced across its receivables portfolio is materially similar to any current expected credit losses that would be estimated under the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model.
The Company assesses outstanding loans receivable under the CECL model by evaluating the party’s ability to pay, which involves reviewing quarterly interest payment history, annually reviewing financial history, assessing the value of any collateral, and reassessing any identified insolvency risk. As of March 31, 2026, the promissory notes are expected to be collected without default.
Concentrations of Credit Risks
The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts by service type and payer type. This level of detail provides useful information on how the Company generates revenue by significant revenue streams and by type of direct contracts, as used by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income present disaggregated revenue by service type.

Revenue Recognition
The Company receives payments from the following sources for services rendered:
Revenue primarily consists of the following:
15
Revenue is recorded in the period in which services are rendered, or the period, generally on a monthly basis, in which the Company is obligated to provide services. The form of billing and related collection risk for such services may vary by revenue type and customer.
Income Taxes
Federal and state income taxes are computed at currently enacted tax rates, less tax credits, using the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are adjusted for both items that do not have tax consequences and for the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities. Tax provisions include amounts that are currently payable, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise because of temporary differences between the timing of when items of income and expense are recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes, changes in recognition of tax positions, and any changes in the valuation allowance caused by a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized.
The Company uses a recognition threshold of “more-likely-than-not” and a measurement attribute on all tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return in order to be recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Once the recognition threshold is met, the tax position is measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, “Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40),” to provide disaggregated information about certain income statement costs and expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statement disclosures.
On May 12, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810) — Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity,” to revise the guidance in ASC 805 on identifying the accounting acquirer in a business combination in which the legal acquiree is a VIE. The ASU is intended to improve comparability between business combinations that involve VIEs and those that do not. ASU 2025-03 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” which clarifies and modernizes the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 remove all references to project stages and clarify the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statement disclosures.
Other than the new standards discussed above, there have been no other recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted that are expected to have significance, or potential significance, to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Certain Businesses and Assets of Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. (“Prospect”)
On July 1, 2025, the Company, and its affiliates, acquired substantially all the assets of certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of PHP Holdings, LLC, such as Prospect Medical Group and Prospect Medical Systems, and all of the outstanding equity interests
16
of Prospect Health Plan, Inc., and Foothill Regional Medical Center, pursuant to the Asset and Equity Purchase Agreement, dated November 8, 2024 (such assets and equity collectively, “Prospect”). The acquisition significantly expanded the Company’s provider network and enhanced its ability to offer increased access, quality, and value to its members. The purchase price for the acquisition was $
The Company is currently finalizing its valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities. Preliminary amounts have been recorded and are subject to change, primarily for accounts that include the use of estimates, such as medical liabilities, collectability of receivables, accrued expenses, and tax liabilities. The final purchase price allocation may result in adjustments to the amounts presented. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments with corresponding changes to goodwill. These adjustments reflect additional information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, primarily related to a $

Goodwill
The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the consideration for the acquired company was allocated to acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is primarily attributable to the scale, skill sets, operations, and synergies from the acquisition, which can be leveraged to expand the Company’s network and enhance the value and quality of care the Company provides to its members.
At the time of acquisition, the Company estimates the amount of assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities based on a valuation and the facts and circumstances available at the time. The Company determines the final value of assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities as soon as information is available, but no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

The Company records its investments in certain non-consolidated VIEs within investments in other entities – equity method in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. These entities were determined to be VIEs but are not consolidated. Despite providing financial support to these entities, the Company lacks a controlling financial interest and is not the primary beneficiary. Thus, these VIEs are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss was $

Credit Facility
Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On February 26, 2025, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,” and the credit facility thereunder, the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) with Truist Bank, in its capacities as administrative agent for the lenders, issuing bank, swingline lender and a lender, and the banks and other financial institutions from time to time party thereto, to, among other things, amend and restate that certain amended credit agreement, dated June 16, 2021, by and among the Company, Truist Bank, and certain lenders thereto, in its entirety. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for (a) a

Amounts borrowed under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement bear interest at an annual rate equal to either, at the Company’s option, (a) the rate for term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) published by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited two days prior to the first day of the applicable interest period, plus a spread of
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires the Company to pay a commitment fee of
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires the Company and its subsidiaries to comply with, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to the extent permitted by law to cause certain material associated practices of the Company to comply with, restrictions on liens, indebtedness, and investments (including restrictions on acquisitions by the Company), subject to specified exceptions. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains certain negative covenants binding the Company and its subsidiaries, including restrictions on fundamental changes, dividends and distributions, dispositions, sales and leasebacks, transactions with affiliates, restrictive agreements, use of proceeds, amendments of organizational documents, accounting changes and prepayments, and modifications of subordinated debt.
The Company and its subsidiary Astrana Health Management, Inc. (“AHM”) have granted the lenders a security interest in all of their assets, including stock and other equity issued by their subsidiaries, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Guaranty and Security Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2025, by and among the Company, as borrower, and AHM, as guarantor, in favor of Truist Bank, which amends and restates that certain guaranty and security agreement dated as of September 11, 2019, in its entirety. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default. If any event of default occurs and continues under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the lenders may terminate their commitments and may require the Company and its guarantors to repay outstanding debt and/or provide a cash deposit as additional security for outstanding letters of credit. In addition, the agent, on behalf of the lenders, may pursue other remedies, including, without limitation, transferring pledged securities of the Company’s subsidiaries in the name of the agent and exercising all rights with respect thereto (including the right to vote and to receive dividends), collect on pledged accounts, instruments and other receivables, and other rights provided by law.

Regulatory Matters
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare program and healthcare generally are complex and subject to interpretation. While the Company believes it complies with applicable laws and regulations, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as significant regulatory action. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in fines, penalties, and/or exclusion from the Medicare and Medi-Cal programs.
The Company’s affiliated risk-bearing organizations are required to follow the regulations of the Department of Managed Health Care (“DMHC”). They must comply with a minimum working capital requirement, a tangible net equity (“TNE”) requirement, a cash-to-claims ratio, and claims payment requirements prescribed by the DMHC. TNE is defined as total assets minus total liabilities, reduced by the value of intangible assets and unsecured obligations of officers, directors, owners, or affiliates outside of the normal course of business, plus subordinated obligations.
Many of the Company’s payer and provider contracts are complex in nature and may be subject to differing interpretations regarding amounts due for the provision of medical services. Such differing interpretations may not come to light until a substantial period of time has passed following contract implementation. Liabilities for claims disputes are recorded when the loss is probable and can be estimated. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in current operations.
Standby Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
The Company established irrevocable standby letters of credit with Truist Bank under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for a total of $
Certain affiliated IPAs consolidated by the Company established irrevocable standby letters of credit for a total of $
25
The Company currently has several surety bonds as required by CMS and other agencies. The bonds total approximately $
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and other matters arising in the normal course of its business. The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. These legal accruals may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable, or the amount of the loss is not estimable, the Company does not record an accrual, consistent with applicable accounting guidance. In the opinion of management, while the outcome of such claims and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s ultimate liability in connection with these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows, and, except for the matter set forth below, the amounts accrued for any individual matter are not material. However, legal proceedings are inherently uncertain. As a result, the outcome of a particular matter or a combination of matters may be material to the Company’s results of operations for a particular period, depending upon the size of the loss or the Company’s income for that particular period.
CFC Health Plan, Inc. – Arbitration Proceeding
Prior to the acquisition of Advanced Health Management Systems, L.P. (“AHMS”) in 2024, CFC Health Plan, Inc. (“CFC HP”), now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was engaged in arbitration with a provider associated with CFC HP (“CFC HP Provider”). Specifically, on or about October 23, 2023, the CFC HP Provider initiated arbitration proceedings by filing a Demand for Arbitration, alleging breach of contract and fraud related to CFC HP’s purported failure to pay for services in accordance with the terms of a hospital services agreement (the “CFC HP Arbitration”). On or about August 8, 2025, the CFC HP Provider filed a First Amended Demand for Arbitration, further alleging that CFC HP never intended to comply with the payment terms of the contract. The action was resolved by settlement and dismissed in February 2026. As of December 31, 2025, per the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid $
Given that the CFC HP Provider had already commenced the CFC HP Arbitration at the time of the acquisition of AHMS, as part of the acquisition, the Company and the sellers of CFC HP entered into a side letter to the purchase agreement that required $
Liability Insurance
The Company believes that its insurance coverage is appropriate based upon the Company’s claims experience and the nature and risks of the Company’s business. In addition to the known incidents that have resulted in the assertion of claims, the Company cannot be certain that its insurance coverage will be adequate to cover liabilities arising out of claims asserted against the Company, the Company’s affiliated professional organizations, or the Company’s affiliated hospitalists in the future, where the outcomes of such claims are unfavorable. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of all pending claims — including potential liabilities in excess of the Company’s insurance coverage — will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows; however, there can be no assurance that future claims will not have such a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. Contracted physicians are required to obtain their own insurance coverage.
Although the Company currently maintains liability insurance policies on a claims-made basis, intended to cover malpractice liability and certain other claims, the coverage must be renewed annually and may not continue to be available to the Company in future years at acceptable costs and on favorable terms.

The Company has an agreement with AHMC for services provided to the Company, involving payment for hospital and other inpatient related services, at rates similar to other hospitals which the Company contracts with.
The Company and AHMC also have a risk-sharing agreement with certain AHMC hospitals to share the surplus and deficits of each of the hospital pools. Under this agreement, during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had recognized risk pool revenues of $
Revenue with AHMC consists of capitation, risk pool, and miscellaneous fees. Expenses with AHMC primarily include claims expenses. One of the Company’s directors is an officer of AHMC.

Intercompany Transactions
Because of corporate practice of medicine laws, the Company uses designated shareholder professional corporations, of which the sole shareholder is a member of the Company’s key personnel, to engage in certain transactions and make intercompany loans from time to time. These corporations are reported on a consolidated basis, together with the Company’s subsidiaries, and therefore, the Company does not separately disclose transactions between such affiliates and the Company’s subsidiaries as related-party transactions.
27
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates.
On an interim basis, the Company estimates what its anticipated annual effective tax rate will be, and records a quarterly income tax provision in accordance with the estimated annual rate, plus the tax effect of certain discrete items that arise during the quarter. As the fiscal year progresses, the Company refines its estimates based on actual events and financial results during the quarter. This process can result in significant changes to the Company’s estimated effective tax rate. When this occurs, the income tax provision is adjusted during the quarter in which the estimates are refined, so that the year-to-date provision reflects the estimated annual effective tax rate. These changes, along with adjustments to the Company’s deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, may create fluctuations in the overall effective tax rate from quarter to quarter.
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, was
If recognized, $
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as state income tax in certain U.S. states. The Company and its subsidiaries’ state and federal income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2021 through December 31, 2024, and for the years ended December 31, 2022 through December 31, 2024, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026,
Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during a certain period and are calculated by dividing net income attributable to Astrana by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, the as-if converted method for secured convertible notes and preferred stock, and the treasury stock method for options and common stock warrants. The non-controlling interest in APC is allocated its share of Astrana’s income from APC’s ownership of Astrana common stock, and this amount is included in the net loss attributable to non-controlling interests in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Therefore, none of the shares of Astrana held by APC are considered outstanding for the purpose of basic or diluted earnings per share computation.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, total treasury stock, including the Company’s stock held by APC, was
The following potentially dilutive outstanding securities were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because the assumed proceeds, as calculated under the treasury stock method, resulted in these awards being antidilutive or the conditions to issue such shares were not achieved as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively:

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs. A VIE is defined as a legal entity whose equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk, or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any of the following three characteristics: decision-making rights, the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
Some states have laws that prohibit business entities with non-physician owners — such as Astrana and its subsidiaries — from practicing medicine, employing physicians to practice medicine, or exercising control over medical decisions by physicians. These laws are generally referred to as corporate practice of medicine laws. States with corporate practice of medicine laws permit only physicians to practice medicine, exercise control over medical decisions, or engage in certain arrangements with physicians, such as fee-splitting.
Due to these laws, the Company operates by maintaining long-term MSAs with its affiliated IPAs and medical groups, each of which is owned and operated by physicians only, and employs or contracts with additional physicians to provide medical services. AHM, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has entered into MSAs with several affiliated IPAs, including APC. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, APC has been determined to be a VIE of AHM, as AHM is its primary beneficiary with the ability, through majority representation on the APC Joint Planning Board and otherwise, to direct the activities (excluding
29
clinical decisions) that most significantly affect APC’s economic performance. Therefore, APC and its wholly owned subsidiaries and VIEs are consolidated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Certain state laws prohibit a professional corporation that has more than one shareholder from being a shareholder in another professional corporation. As a result, the Company cannot directly own shares in another professional corporation. However, an exception to this regulation permits a professional corporation that has only one shareholder to own shares in another professional corporation. In reliance on this exception, the Company designated certain key personnel as the nominee shareholder of professional corporations that hold controlling and non-controlling ownership interests in several medical corporations. Via a Physician Shareholder Agreement with the nominee shareholder, the Company has the ability to designate another person to be the equity holder of the professional corporation. In addition, these entities are managed by the Company’s wholly owned MSOs via MSAs. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the professional corporations and their consolidated medical corporations are consolidated by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following table includes assets that can only be used to settle the liabilities of the Company’s VIEs, and to which the creditors of Astrana have no recourse, and liabilities to which the creditors of the Company’s VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Astrana, as the primary beneficiary of the VIEs. These assets and liabilities of the Company’s VIEs, with the exception of investments in affiliates and amounts due to, or from, affiliates, which are eliminated upon consolidation, are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

The Company currently has
In the normal course of business, the Company’s reportable segments enter into transactions with each other. While intersegment transactions are treated like third-party transactions to determine segment performance, the revenues recognized by a segment and expenses incurred by the counterparty are eliminated in consolidation and do not affect consolidated results.
Corporate costs are unallocated and primarily include corporate initiatives, corporate infrastructure costs, and corporate shared costs such as finance, human resources, legal, and executive management.
Certain amounts disclosed in prior periods have been recast to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, depreciation and amortization expense is disclosed separately from general and administrative expenses in the accompanying segment table for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1, “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, reference is made to our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026.
In this section, “we,” “our,” “ours,” and “us” refer to Astrana Health, Inc. (“Astrana”) and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated entities, as appropriate, including its consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”).
Overview
Astrana is a leading physician-centric, AI-powered, risk-bearing healthcare management company. Leveraging its proprietary population health management and healthcare delivery platform, Astrana operates an integrated, value-based healthcare model, that aims to empower the providers in its network to deliver the highest quality of care to its patients in a cost-effective manner. Together with our affiliated physician groups and consolidated entities, we cost-effectively provide coordinated outcomes-based medical care.
Through our risk-bearing organizations with more than 20,000 contracted physicians, we were responsible for coordinating the care for approximately 1.55 million patients as of March 31, 2026. These covered patients are managed care members whose health coverage is provided either through their employers, directly from a health plan, or as a result of their eligibility for Medicaid or Medicare benefits. Our managed patients benefit from an integrated approach that places physicians at the center of patient care and utilizes sophisticated risk management techniques and clinical protocols to deliver high-quality, cost-effective care.
Regulatory and Industry Trends
On April 6, 2026, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) issued its final 2027 Medicare Advantage and Part D payment rates (“2027 CMS Rates”). The final notice saw a modest increase in the ratebook in addition to continuing to use the 2024 Medicare Advantage risk adjustment model for 2027, rather than implementing a proposed updated model. CMS retained two risk adjustment modifications which Astrana estimates will not have material effect on our financials. Astrana believes the higher rates along with the commitment to risk adjustment stability in 2027 will benefit Astrana, and we believe Astrana is well-positioned in the 2027 Medicare Advantage marketplace.
Key Financial Measures and Indicators
Operating Revenues
Our revenue, which is recorded in the period during which services are rendered and earned, generally on a monthly basis, primarily consists of capitation revenue, risk pool settlements and incentives, management fee income, fee-for-service (“FFS”) revenue, and other revenue primarily consisting of revenues earned from maternity care. The form of billing and related collection risk for such services may vary by revenue type and customer.
Operating Expenses
Our largest expenses consist of the cost of (a) patient care paid to contracted providers and (b) staff to provide management and administrative support services to our affiliated physician groups, as further described in the following sections. These services include claims processing, utilization management, contracting, accounting, credentialing, and administrative oversight.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are supplemental performance measures of our operations for financial and operational decision-making, and are used as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, and stock-based compensation. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA over total revenue.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Astrana and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) - Diluted
Our adjusted EPS - diluted is a supplemental performance measure of our operations for financial and operational decision-making and is used as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. We define adjusted EPS - diluted as adjusted net income attributable to Astrana over weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - diluted. Adjusted net income attributable to Astrana is calculated as net income, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, certain tax adjustments, and amounts related to net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests.
Free Cash Flow
Our free cash flow is a supplemental performance measure of our operations for financial and operational decision-making and is used as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis and reflects the cash flow trends in our business. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities minus cash used in purchases of property and equipment.

Risk-Bearing Organizations and Patients
As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we managed a total of 29 and 20 independent risk-bearing organizations, respectively, including both affiliated and non-affiliated. The total number of patients for whom we managed the delivery of healthcare services was approximately 1.55 million and 1.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Revenue
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $965.1 million, as compared to $620.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $344.7 million, or 56%. The increase in revenue was partially attributable to the Prospect acquisition, which contributed $300.2 million of revenue from the acquisition date. In addition, capitation revenue increased by $46.4 million primarily as a result of enrollees transitioning to full risk through our Restricted Knox-Keene plans.
Cost of Services, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization
Expenses related to cost of services, excluding depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were $859.4 million, as compared to $549.1 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $310.3 million or 57%. The overall increase was primarily due to increased participation in a value-based Medicare FFS model and medical costs associated with both professional and institutional risk of our Restricted Knox-Keene licensed health plans as a result of our recent acquisitions, of which Prospect contributed approximately $259.3 million from the date of acquisition.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $61.7 million, as compared to $43.9 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $17.8 million or 41%. The increase was primarily due to $16.4 million from the inclusion of Prospect’s results of operations from the date of acquisition as well as other general and administrative expenses to support operational growth.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were $15.5 million, as compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $8.6 million or 126%, driven by $9.3 million due to the Prospect acquisition, primarily from the acquisition of its intangible assets. This amount includes depreciation of property and equipment and the amortization of intangible assets.
Income from Equity Method Investments
Income from equity method investments for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $1.7 million, as compared to a loss of $0.9 million for the same period in 2025. This amount includes our portion of the equity method investment’s net earnings and losses. This exhibited an increase to income primarily due to Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation’s (“APC”) equity method investment in LaSalle Medical Associates and more favorable performance by our other equity method investments.
40
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $16.1 million, as compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $8.8 million or 120%. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the increased borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility to finance the Prospect acquisition, partially offset by a decrease in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. Our outstanding borrowings, as of March 31, 2026, increased to $1,040.3 million on the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility from $412.0 million borrowed under the facility as of March 31, 2025. The interest rates on the Term Loans and $100.0 million of the Revolver Loan were 5.67%, and the interest rate on $22.0 million of the Revolver Loan was 5.68% as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2025, the interest rates for the Term Loan and the Revolver Loan were 5.82%.
Interest Income
Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $3.8 million, as compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $1.5 million or 65%. Interest income reflects interest earned on cash held in bank accounts, money market and certificate of deposit accounts, and the interest from our loans receivable. The change in interest income was primarily due to an increase in our cash held in interest bearing bank accounts, including $0.5 million of interest income related to cash accounts from the Prospect acquisition.
Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments
Unrealized gain on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, increased $1.1 million primarily due to change in fair value of our interest rate swap.
Other Income (Loss)
Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $0.7 million, as compared to other loss of $5.1 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $5.7 million or 113%. The increase in other income was primarily due to debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility in 2025. No similar transaction occurred for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Provision for Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes was $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $3.2 million primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income.
Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $1.3 million, as compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $0.8 million. The increase was primarily driven by losses in APC.
Net Income Attributable to Astrana Health, Inc.
Our net income attributable to Astrana Health, Inc., for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $14.4 million, as compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $7.7 million.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $66.3 million, as compared to $36.4 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $29.9 million, and was primarily due to the Prospect acquisition.
See “Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin” below for additional information.

Segment Financial Performance
We currently have three reportable segments consisting of Care Partners, Care Delivery, and Care Enablement. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on segment revenue growth as well as operating income. Management uses revenue growth and total segment operating income as a measure of the performance of operating businesses, separate from non-operating factors. For more information about our segments, see Note 17 — “Segments” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
The following table sets forth our revenue and operating income (loss) by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

Care Partners Segment
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $909.7 million, as compared to $601.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $308.8 million. Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $39.5 million, as compared to $44.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease in operating income of $4.8 million. The increase in revenue was primarily due to recent acquisitions within our Care Partners segment, including $266.5 million in revenue from the Prospect acquisition, and members transitioning to full risk through our Restricted Knox-Keene plans. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to slightly higher growth in our cost of services expense compared to corresponding revenue related to our increased participation in value-based care and medical costs associated with both professional and institutional risk of our Restricted Knox-Keene licensed health plans.
Care Delivery Segment
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $85.1 million, as compared to $33.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $51.7 million. Operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $3.0 million, as compared to loss of $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase in operating income of $0.1 million. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by $49.9 million of revenue from the inclusion of Prospect, as well as an increased volume in patient visits and continued investments at our primary, multi-specialty, and ancillary Care Delivery entities.
42
Care Enablement Segment
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $87.7 million, as compared to $39.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $48.2 million. Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $20.2 million, as compared to operating income of $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $16.6 million. The increase in revenue and operating income was primarily due to managing more IPAs in our Care Partners segment and through new external contracts, including those acquired through Prospect, including $40.8 million in revenue and $13.6 million in operating income contributed by the Prospect acquisition. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the total number of affiliated physician groups we managed were 29 and 20 groups, respectively.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income attributable to Astrana, and adjusted EPS - diluted, of which the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) is net income. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q also contains the non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow, of which the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP is net cash provided by operating activities. These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to, GAAP, and may be calculated differently from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted EPS - diluted, and free cash flow as supplemental performance measures of our operations, for financial and operational decision-making, and as supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis and, for free cash flow, to reflect the cash flow trends in our business. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, and stock-based compensation. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA over total revenue. Adjusted net income attributable to Astrana is calculated as net income, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets attributable to acquisitions, certain tax adjustments, and amounts related to net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests. We define adjusted EPS - diluted as adjusted net income attributable to Astrana over weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - diluted. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities minus cash used in purchases of property and equipment.
We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with relevant and useful information, as it allows investors to evaluate the operating performance of the business activities without having to account for differences recognized because of non-core or non-recurring financial information. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of our ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators we use as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources, and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income attributable to Astrana, adjusted EPS - diluted, and free cash flow differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes. To the extent this Form 10-Q contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, we have provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. The reconciliations between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures are provided above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2026, totaled $478.4 million, as compared to $429.5 million at December 31, 2025. Working capital totaled $258.7 million at March 31, 2026, as compared to $248.0 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $10.7 million.
We have historically financed our operations primarily through internally generated funds and borrowings on long-term debt. We generate cash primarily from capitation contracts, risk pool settlements and incentives, fees for medical management services provided to our affiliated physician groups, FFS reimbursements, and other revenues. We generally invest cash in money market accounts, which are classified as cash and cash equivalents. In February 2025, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended and restated that certain amended credit agreement and provides for a five-year revolving credit facility of $300.0 million, a term loan of $250.0 million, and a delayed-draw term loan that was drawn for $707.3 million in July 2025, which we primarily used to refinance certain existing indebtedness and to fund the costs associated with the Prospect acquisition. We had $138.0 million remaining available under the revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2026. In addition, we have a current shelf registration statement filed with the SEC under which we may issue common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, and other securities that may be offered in one or more offerings on terms to be determined at the time of the offering. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations through at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $68.1 million, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $16.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by favorable changes in working capital relative to the three months ended March 31, 2025 and higher adjusted net income. The change in working capital for the 2026 and 2025 periods included timing of claims payments related to our medical liabilities, timing of payments for provider incentives, and a decrease in cash paid for income taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net income, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt issuance cost, share-based compensation, non-cash lease expense, deferred tax, change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, and other was $41.6 million, as compared to $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $2.8 million, primarily due to purchases of property and equipment for $4.0 million. Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $2.4 million primarily due to purchases of property and equipment of $3.1 million.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $16.0 million, primarily due to repayments of debt of $12.0 million, repurchase of treasury shares of $2.9 million, tax payments from net share settlement of restricted stock awards and units of $1.2 million, and dividend payments of $0.1 million. Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $44.2 million, primarily due to repayments of debt of $428.2 million, payments of deferred financing costs of $17.2 million, dividends paid of $5.5 million, and taxes paid from net share settlement of restricted stock of $4.1 million, partially offset by borrowings on debt of $412.0 million.

See Note 8 — “Credit Facility and Bank Loans” to our condensed consolidated financial statements under Item 1 in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information on our debt obligations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts of revenue, expenses, income, assets, and liabilities reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results and the timing of recognition of such amounts could differ from those judgments, assumptions, and estimates. In addition, judgments, assumptions, and estimates routinely require adjustment based on changing circumstances and the receipt of new or better information. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which management uses judgment, assumptions, and estimates in applying these policies is therefore integral to understanding our financial statements. Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that reflect significant judgments and uncertainties, potentially resulting in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We summarize our most significant accounting policies in relation to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in Note 2 — “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” thereto. Please also refer to the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that are, or have been, reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
Borrowings under the Term Loans and Revolver Loan provided for under our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as of March 31, 2026, were $918.3 million and $122.0 million, respectively. The loans under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement bear interest at an annual rate equal to either, at our option, (a) the rate for term SOFR published by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited two days prior to the first day of the applicable interest period, plus a spread of 1.25% to 2.50%, as determined on a quarterly basis based on the Company’s leverage ratio, or (b) a base rate, plus a spread of 0.25% to 1.50%, as determined on a quarterly basis based on the Company’s leverage ratio. We have entered into an interest swap agreement to effectively convert our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis with a termination date of August 31, 2029, provided that the bank has the right to change the swap to a two-year term. The interest swap agreement sets a fixed rate of 3.179% for the first $200.0 million of our aggregate debt balance. The principal objective of the swap agreement is to eliminate or reduce the variability of cash flows associated with our floating-rate debt, thereby reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest payment cash flows. Based on our current outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2026, a hypothetical 1% change in our interest rates would increase or decrease our interest expense, on an annual basis, by $8.4 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and well-operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
As of March 31, 2026, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Operating Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. As previously disclosed in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting associated with the accounting for business combinations. Because this material weakness had not been remediated as of March 31, 2026, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026. Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Following the identification of the material weakness described in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, management is continuing to make progress in its design and implementation of remediation activities to address the material weakness, and therefore these remediation activities are not reflected as changes in internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. We excluded the operations of Prospect as we continue to evaluate its internal control over financial reporting. This exclusion is in accordance with the general guidance issued by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of a recent business combination may be omitted from management's report on internal control over financial reporting in the first year of consolidation.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are, from time to time, party to lawsuits, threatened lawsuits, disputes, and other claims arising in the normal course of business. We assess our liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that we will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements. These legal accruals may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable, or the amount of the loss is not estimable, we do not record an accrual, in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In the opinion of management, while the outcome of such claims and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, our ultimate liability in connection with these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows, and except as described under “Litigation” in Note 11 — “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the amounts accrued for any individual matter are not material. However, legal proceedings are inherently uncertain. As a result, the outcome of a particular matter or a combination of matters may be material to our results of operations for a particular period, depending upon the size of the loss or our income for that particular period.
Certain of the pending or threatened legal proceedings or claims in which we are involved are discussed under Note 11 — “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which disclosure is incorporated by reference herein.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Our business, financial condition, and operating results are affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including risks specific to us or the healthcare industry, as well as risks that affect businesses in general. In addition to the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026. The risks disclosed in such Annual Report could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations, and thus our stock price. These disclosures reflect our beliefs and opinions as to factors that could materially and adversely affect the Company and its securities in the future. References to past events are provided by way of example only and are not intended to be a complete listing or a representation as to whether or not such factors have occurred in the past or their likelihood of occurring in the future. We believe there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in the Annual Report. However, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known or which we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Because of such risk factors, as well as other factors affecting our financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. In addition, the disclosure of any risk factor should not be interpreted to imply that the risk has not already materialized.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In December 2022, Astrana’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its shares of common stock. In February 2026, the Board of Directors increased the total authorization under the share repurchase program to $100.0 million of its shares of common stock, including the $35.9 million that remained available under the previously announced stock repurchase program. Repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which could include open market purchases, accelerated share repurchase transactions, negotiated block transactions, 10b5-1 plans, other transactions that may be structured through investment banking institutions or privately negotiated, or a combination of the foregoing. This share repurchase program has no expiration date. The Board may suspend, modify, or discontinue the repurchase program at any time. This repurchase program does not obligate the Company to make additional repurchases at any specific time or in any specific situation. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 124,747 shares were repurchased under the Company’s share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2026, $83.1 million remained available under the repurchase program.
The following table provides information about purchases made by the Company of shares of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
