Management Commentary
"2025 was a tremendous year of transition in which we made significant strides toward building a stronger operational and financial foundation," said Suzanne Foster, Chief Executive Officer. "We transformed our operating model to position the company for sustained growth. We closed the largest capitated contract in the industry's history. And we strengthened our balance sheet by paying down debt while generating cash flow that exceeded expectations. In the fourth quarter, we continued that momentum with strong patient growth across our portfolio, setting new census records in
Sleep Health, Respiratory Health, and Wellness at Home. This progress positions us well for strong financial performance in 2026 and beyond."
Guidance for Fiscal Year 2026
While fourth quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA was impacted by a legal settlement expense of $14.5 million and over $10 million of strategic investments to accelerate onboarding the new capitated contract, the underlying earnings power of the business remains intact. As a result, the Company is providing its financial guidance for fiscal year 2026, as follows:
- Net revenue of $3.44 billion to $3.51 billion
- Adjusted EBITDA of $680 million to $730 million
- Free cash flow of $175 million to $225 million

Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projections, estimates and forecasts of revenue and other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity and expectations and the Company’s acquisition pipeline. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of AdaptHealth management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on, by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company.
Forward-looking statements notice
These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the outcome of judicial and administrative proceedings to which the Company may become a party or governmental investigations to which the Company may become subject that could interrupt or limit the Company’s operations, result in adverse judgments, settlements or fines and create negative publicity; changes in the Company’s customers’ preferences, prospects and the competitive conditions prevailing in the healthcare sector. A further description of such risks and uncertainties can be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently knows or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and Financial Guidance
The Company uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, free cash flow and organic revenue, 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, the Company’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.
The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s financial performance. The Company 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 the Company’s liquidity.
The Company 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 the Company's competitors and to measure the ability of companies to service their debt. The Company's presentation of free cash flow should not be construed as a measure of liquidity or discretionary cash available to the Company 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 the Company’s liquidity.
The Company uses organic revenue, which is a financial measure that is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, to analyze its financial results and believes that it is useful to investors, as a supplement to U.S. GAAP measures. The change in net revenue from organic revenue is reported as organic revenue as a percentage of prior period total reported net revenue. Management believes organic revenue is meaningful to investors as it provides appropriate visibility into how the Company changes organically - that is, within its existing operations using its own resources.
Organic revenue is defined as all changes in reported net revenues from the comparable period presented, excluding: (1) increases in net revenue in the current period from acquisitions attributable to businesses and/or assets the Company has owned for less than one year based on the month of acquisition, excluding the acquisition of equipment from previous providers to facilitate the transition of patients related to newly awarded at-risk capitated contracts, since the revenue related to these agreements is earned organically; and (2) decreases in net revenue from dispositions existing in the prior period from divested product lines, services, and/or businesses for which there is no revenue recognized in the current period.
This release contains non-GAAP financial guidance. There is no reliable or reasonably estimable comparable GAAP measure for the Company’s non-GAAP financial guidance because the Company is not able to reliably predict the impact of certain items that typically have one or more of the following characteristics, such as being highly variable, difficult to project, unusual in nature, significant to the results of a particular period or not indicative of future operating results. Similar charges or gains were recognized in prior periods and will likely reoccur in future periods. As a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. The variability of the specified items may have a significant and unpredictable impact on the Company’s future GAAP results.
In addition, the Company’s financial guidance in this release excludes the impact of any potential additional future strategic acquisitions and any items that have not yet been identified and quantified. The financial guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties applicable to all forward-looking statements as described elsewhere in this press release.
