Net loss of $40.9 million
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $35.2 million, an increase of 53% year-over year
Raised 2021 and 2022 guidance for total membership, total revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA

"Our third quarter results once again demonstrate the successful execution of our operating model and growth strategy. We have the privilege of serving more members than ever before, because we have continued to produce better outcomes for our patients at lower costs. Our strategy to build, buy, and manage medical centers is driving scale and density in key markets, which is fueling our profitable growth. I am pleased that we have already met our full year goal of being operational in eight states plus Puerto Rico. As a result of our continued momentum, we are raising our guidance for 2021 and 2022," said Dr. Marlow Hernandez, Co-Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Cano Health.

Third Quarter Financial Results:

Total revenue of $526.8 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $263.1 million for the third quarter of 2020
Net loss of $40.9 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $11.1 million for the third quarter of 2020
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $35.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $23.0 million for the third quarter of 2020

The Company had 171.6 million shares of Class A common stock and 305.7 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding at September 30, 2021. Our total share count for the purposes of calculating our market capitalization was 480.0 million as of November 5, 2021.

⁽¹⁾ Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA table included in this press release. An explanation of this measure and how it is calculated is also included under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

COVID-19 Update

For Cano Health members, as of October 31, we have observed a seven-day daily average of 1.4 cases compared to a seven-day daily average of 24.0 cases at Cano Health's pandemic peak in January 2021, and 1.2 COVID-19 average monthly hospital admissions per 1,000 in October as compared to Cano Health's pandemic peak of 21.2 in July 2020. Our COVID-19 mortality rate continues to be at least 50% lower than the senior population in Florida. Additional detail is provided in our Third Quarter 2021 Financial Supplement found on the Investor Relations section of our website, canohealth.com/investors.

The medical claims expense ratio for the third quarter 2021 was 75.6%, compared to 77.0% in the second quarter for 2021. The sequential decline was primarily driven by the continued effectiveness of our care and utilization management programs.

For the first nine months of 2021, the medical claims expense ratio was 75.4%. For the full year of 2021, we continue to project a medical claims expense ratio of approximately 75.0%, reflecting an anticipated medical claims expense ratio of approximately 74.0% in the fourth quarter.

Acquisition and Market Update

Completed acquisition of Doctor's Medical Center on July 2 for $300 million, adding approximately 52,000 members and 18 medical centers in Florida
In July 2021, acquired a behavioral health specialty group in South Florida to better serve the mental health needs of Cano Health members and others in the communities we serve
Also, in July 2021, acquired two medical centers in Las Vegas, Nevada, adjacent to our four existing medical centers
In August 2021, deployed approximately $170 million ($140 million in cash and $30 million in equity) to acquire medical practices and infrastructure managing affiliates in four states: Florida, New York, New Jersey, and New Mexico
Launched Healthy Heart by Dr. Juan, a program targeting cardiovascular disease prevention, led by Dr. Juan Rivera, a nationally recognized cardiologist, and Chief Medical Correspondent for the Univision television network
Increased density in southeast Texas by opening four de novo medical centers in the Rio Grande Valley and Corpus Christi, bringing our total medical centers in the region to ten
Expanded into Los Angeles and Chicago, while increasing our presence in Albuquerque, through the addition of seven de novo medical centers
Including de novo medical centers in Florida and Nevada we have thus far opened 16 de novo medical centers in 2021
Total medical center footprint is currently 126

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of September 30, 2021, Cano Health had approximately $209 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $952 million of debt
On September 30, 2021, Cano Health issued senior unsecured notes in the principal amount of $300 million, proceeds of which were used to repay in full its $250 million bridge loan; the company also added an incremental $100 million to its existing term loan
In the third quarter, the Company deployed net cash of approximately $450 million in connection with acquisitions as described above in "Acquisition and Market Update"
Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $91 million

Guidance

The Company is updating its previous guidance from August 12, 2021. Consistent with that guidance, the guidance below does not include the impact of any additional acquisitions.

The updated outlook for 2021 is expected to be as follows:

Membership: Approximately 218,000, an increase from the prior guidance of approximately 215,000
Total revenue of approximately $1.7 billion, an increase from the prior guidance of $1.6 billion
Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $118 million, reflecting an increase from the prior guidance of approximately $115 million
The Company expects to open approximately 20 de novo medical centers and operate approximately 130 owned medical centers by the end of 2021

The updated outlook for 2022 is expected to be as follows:

Membership in the range of 280,000 to 285,000; an increase from the prior guidance of 275,000 to 280,000
Total revenue in the range of $2.6 billion to $2.7 billion; an increase from the prior guidance of $2.5 billion to $2.6 billion
Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $170 million to $175 million; an increase from the prior guidance of $165 million to $170 million
The Company continues to expect to open 54 to 59 de novo medical centers, and expects to operate 184 to 189 owned medical centers in 2022

We have not reconciled our expectations as to non-GAAP measures in future periods to their most directly comparable GAAP measure because certain costs and expenses are outside of our control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements relate to future events and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements. Such forward-looking statement include, without limitation, our anticipated results of operations, including our financial guidance for the 2021 and 2022 fiscal years, our business strategies, the expected amount of investments and capital expenditures, the anticipated impact of the recent transactions on our business and future financial and operating results, the expected amount and timing of synergies from the recent transactions, our projected costs, prospects and plans, and other aspects of our operations or operating results. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by phrases such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "foresees," "forecasts," "estimates" or other words or phrases of similar import. It is uncertain whether any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition. Important risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements include, among others, changes in market or industry conditions, regulatory environment, competitive conditions, and receptivity to our services; our ability to realize expected results with respect to patient membership, total revenue and earnings; our ability to enter into new markets and continue our growth; our ability to integrate our acquisitions and achieve desired synergies; changes in laws and regulations applicable to our business; our ability to maintain our relationships with health plans and other key payors; the impact of COVID-19 on our business and results of operation; our future capital requirements and sources and uses of cash, including funds to satisfy our liquidity needs; and our ability to recruit and retain qualified team members and independent physicians. For a detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the risk factors identified in the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021 and incorporated by reference into our Super 8-K filed on June 9, 2021 and in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. All information provided in this press release is as of the date hereof, and we undertake no duty to update or revise this information unless required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC rules. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, adjusted to add back the effect of certain expenses, such as stock-based compensation expense, de novo losses (consisting of losses incurred in the twelve months after the opening of a new facility), acquisition transaction costs (consisting of transaction costs, fair value adjustments in contingent consideration, management fees and corporate development payroll costs), restructuring and other charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, changes in fair value of an embedded derivative, and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in and in comparing our financial measures with other similar companies. We do not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense, income and other items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation of those measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures is available under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures."

______________________________

(1) De novo losses include those costs associated with the ramp up of new facilities and that are not expected to be incurred past the first 12 months after opening. These costs collectively are higher than comparable expenses incurred once such a facility has been open and generating revenue and would not have been incurred unless a new facility was being opened.

(2) Acquisition transaction costs included $1.3 million and $0.1 million of corporate development payroll costs for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $3.0 million and $0.3 million of corporate development payroll costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Corporate development payroll costs include those expenses directly related to the additional staff needed to support our increased acquisition activity.
