Premier, Inc. (NASDAQ:PINC), a leading technology-driven healthcare improvement company, today reported financial results for the fiscal-year 2026 first quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Fiscal-year 2026 first quarter total net revenue of $240.0 million decreased 3% from the prior-year period. Net income from continuing operations of $15.3 million, or $0.21 per share, in the fiscal-year 2026 first quarter compared to $72.9 million, or $0.72 per share, in the prior-year period, which included a non-operating gain from a derivative lawsuit settlement of $57.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA* of $55.0 million in the fiscal-year 2026 first quarter decreased 12% from the prior-year period. Adjusted EPS* of $0.30 in the fiscal-year 2026 first quarter decreased 12% from the prior-year period.

On October 1, 2024, the company announced that it had divested the S2S Global direct sourcing business. As such, and unless stated otherwise, all results presented in the following release reflect those of continuing operations. In addition, as the company's efforts to wind down the remaining components of the Contigo Health business remain ongoing, results presented in this release continue to include contributions from that business. However, because of the expected wind-down, the company is providing certain financial measures that exclude contributions from this business, and tables are included at the end of this release that reconcile the impact of the Contigo Health business on certain financial measures in the periods presented.

Fiscal-Year 2026 Guidance

The company previously announced the signing of a definitive agreement to be acquired by an affiliate of Patient Square Capital, LP ("Patient Square Capital"). As a result of the pending acquisition, Premier is withdrawing previously issued, and is no longer providing, fiscal-year 2026 guidance.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025

(As compared with the three months ended September 30, 2024)

GAAP net revenue of $240.0 million decreased 3% from $248.1 million in the prior-year period. Refer to the "Supply Chain Services" and "Performance Services" sections below for discussion on the factors that impacted the net revenue during the quarter.

GAAP net income from continuing operations of $15.3 million decreased by $57.7 million from $72.9 million in the prior-year period primarily due to the prior-year non-operating gain from a derivative lawsuit settlement of $57.0 million.

GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.21 decreased by $0.51 from $0.72 in the prior-year period due to the aforementioned drivers affecting GAAP net income from continuing operations, partially offset by a decrease in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding as a result of share repurchases under the company's $1 billion share repurchase authorization announced in February 2024 ("Share Repurchase Authorization"), further discussed below under "Return of Capital to Stockholders".

Adjusted EBITDA of $55.0 million decreased 12% from $62.4 million in the prior-year period. Refer to the "Supply Chain Services" and "Performance Services" sections below for discussion on the factors that impacted the Adjusted EBITDA during the quarter.

Adjusted net income of $25.1 million decreased 28% from $34.7 million in the prior-year period primarily as a result of the same factors that impacted adjusted EBITDA and an increase in interest expense due to higher borrowings on the company's five-year, $1.0 billion revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility"). Adjusted EPS of $0.30 decreased 12% from $0.34 in the prior-year period.

Segment Results

(For the fiscal first quarter of 2026 as compared with the fiscal first quarter of 2025)

Supply Chain Services

Supply Chain Services segment net revenue of $152.1 million was roughly flat compared to $151.4 million in the prior-year period.

Net administrative fees revenue of $132.4 million was roughly flat compared to $132.6 million in the prior-year period as the expected increase in the aggregate blended member fee share was offset by continued growth in member purchasing as a result of increased utilization of contracts with existing members and from the recruitment and onboarding of new members.

Software licenses, other services and support revenue of $19.7 million increased 5% from $18.8 million in the prior-year period mainly driven by continued growth from new engagements in the supply chain co-management business and further expansion of the company's digital supply chain solutions to providers and suppliers.

Segment adjusted EBITDA of $76.2 million decreased 2% from $77.5 million in the prior-year period largely due investments in the supply chain co-management business to support ongoing growth.

Performance Services

Performance Services segment net revenue of $87.9 million decreased 9% from $96.8 million in the prior-year period primarily due to lower license revenue partially offset by growth in the consulting business and contributions from the IllumiCare acquisition.

Segment adjusted EBITDA of $10.6 million decreased 29% from $14.9 million in the prior-year period mainly due to the decrease in revenue partially offset by lower cost of revenue and operating expenses.

Liquidity and Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents were $43.4 million compared with $83.7 million as of June 30, 2025, and the company's Credit Facility had an outstanding balance of $280.0 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations ("operating cash flow") for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $15.9 million decreased from $80.0 million in the prior-year period mainly due to a decrease in cash receipts due to lower collections during the current-year period as well as cash received in the prior-year period from a derivative lawsuit settlement. These decreases to cash were partially offset by lower performance-related compensation in the current-year period.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $19.5 million increased from $17.7 million in the prior-year period due to an increase in purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $36.7 million decreased from $88.1 million in the prior-year period due to share repurchases under the Share Repurchase Authorization in the prior-year period, completion of the early termination payments to certain former limited partners in connection with the August 2020 restructuring, and a decrease in payments on the liability related to the sale of future revenues. These changes were offset by the final cash payment received in the prior-year period from the sale of the non-healthcare GPO operations.

Non-GAAP free cash flow for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $(14.0) million compared with $16.2 million in the prior-year period. In addition to some of the factors that affected operating cash flow, the decrease was partially offset by the completion of the early termination payments to certain former limited partners and a decrease in cash payments to OMNIA related to the company's non-healthcare channel partnership agreement. Non-GAAP free cash flow is typically lowest in the first quarter as the company's fiscal year ends in June and payment of certain expenses, including annual performance-related compensation, occurs in the first quarter. Refer to "Premier's Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures" below and the supplemental financial information at the end of this release for information on the company's use of this and other non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of reported GAAP results to non-GAAP results.

Return of Capital to Stockholders

In February 2024, the company announced that its Board of Directors approved the Share Repurchase Authorization. Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Authorization, which expired on June 30, 2025, the company has repurchased an aggregate of $800.0 million of its common stock, which includes the August 2025 completion of the $200.0 million accelerated share repurchase program announced in February 2025.

During the fiscal-year 2026 first quarter, the company paid aggregate dividends of $18.6 million to holders of its Class A common stock. As a result of the company's pending acquisition by Patient Square Capital, Premier has suspended the declaration and distribution of common stock dividends in future quarters.

Conference Call and Webcast

As a result of the company's pending acquisition by Patient Square Capital, Premier will not host a conference call and webcast to discuss its financial results.

Premier's Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Premier uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash flow. These are non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We include these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate a comparison of the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide measures that, when viewed in combination with its results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we believe allow for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company's business than GAAP measures alone.

Management believes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA assist the company's board of directors, management and investors in comparing the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period by removing the impact of the company's earnings elements attributable to the company's asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), certain items outside the control of management, e.g., taxes, other non-cash items (such as impairment of intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments and stock-based compensation), non-recurring items (such as strategic initiative and restructuring-related expenses) and income and expense that have been classified as discontinued operations from operating results.

Management believes adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share assist the company's board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income and earnings per share on a consistent basis from period to period because these measures remove non-cash items (such as impairment of intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments and stock-based compensation) and non-recurring items (such as strategic initiative and restructuring-related expenses) and eliminate the variability of non-controlling interest and equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates.

Management believes free cash flow is an important measure because it represents the cash that the company generates after payments to certain former limited partners that elected to execute a Unit Exchange and Tax Receivable Agreement ("Unit Exchange Agreement") in connection with our August 2020 restructuring, capital investment to maintain existing products and services and ongoing business operations, as well as development of new and upgraded products and services to support future growth and cash payments to OMNIA for the sale of future revenues and tax payments on proceeds received from the sale of future revenues. Free cash flow is important because it enables the company to seek enhancement of stockholder value through acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, investments in related or complementary businesses and/or debt reduction.

Also, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are supplemental financial measures used by the company and by external users of our financial statements and are considered to be indicators of the operational strength and performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow measures allow us to assess our performance without regard to financing methods and capital structure and without the impact of other matters that we do not consider indicative of the operating performance of our business. More specifically, segment adjusted EBITDA is the primary earnings measure we use to evaluate the performance of our business segments.

Non-recurring items are income or expenses and other items that have not been earned or incurred within the prior two years and are not expected to recur within the next two years. Such items include acquisition- and disposition-related expenses, strategic initiative- and restructuring-related expenses, loss on disposal of long-lived assets, income and expense that has been classified as discontinued operations and other reconciling items.

Non-cash items include stock-based compensation expense and asset impairments.

Non-operating items include gains or losses on the disposal of assets, interest and investment income or expense, equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates and operating income from revenues sold to OMNIA in connection with the sale of non-healthcare GPO member contracts, less royalty payments retained.

EBITDA is defined as net income before income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, interest and investment income or expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization of purchased intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before merger and acquisition-related expenses and non-recurring, non-cash or non-operating items.

Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as the segment's net revenue less cost of revenue and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of purchased intangible assets, merger and acquisition-related expenses and non-recurring or non-cash items. Operating expenses directly attributable to the segment include expenses associated with sales and marketing, general and administrative, and product development activities specific to the operation of each segment. General and administrative corporate expenses that are not specific to a particular segment are not included in the calculation of segment adjusted EBITDA. Segment adjusted EBITDA also excludes any income and expense that has been classified as discontinued operations and operating income from revenues sold to OMNIA in connection with the sale of non-healthcare GPO member contracts, less royalty payments retained.

Adjusted net income is defined as net income attributable to Premier (i) excluding income or loss from discontinued operations, net, (ii) excluding income tax expense, (iii) excluding the effect of non-recurring or non-cash items, including certain strategic initiative- and restructuring-related expenses, (iv) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on Non-GAAP net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for unusual or infrequent items, (v) excluding the equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates and (vi) excluding operating income from revenues sold to OMNIA in connection with the sale of non-healthcare GPO member contracts, less royalty fees retained, imputed interest expense and associated income tax expense.

Adjusted earnings per share is adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less (i) early termination payments to certain former limited partners that elected to execute a Unit Exchange Agreement in connection with our August 2020 restructuring, (ii) purchases of property and equipment and (iii) cash payments to OMNIA for the sale of future revenues and tax payments on proceeds received from the sale of future revenues. Free cash flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayments.

To properly and prudently evaluate our business, readers are urged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the other financial tables, included at the end of this release. Readers should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company's business. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are susceptible to varying calculations and may differ from, and may therefore not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

In addition to the foregoing, this release and the reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures included at the end of this release include the presentation of additional fiscal-year 2025 non-GAAP financial measures including net revenue excluding Contigo Health, adjusted EBITDA excluding Contigo Health and adjusted earnings per share excluding Contigo Health. As the company continues to own and operate certain components of the Contigo Health business, GAAP financial results presented in this release include contributions from these remaining components. The company expects that the remainder of Contigo Health will be substantially wound down by December 31, 2025. Accordingly, we believe that providing supplemental non-GAAP financial measures excluding Contigo Health allows for a better understanding of our operating performance.

Further information on Premier's use of non-GAAP financial measures is available in the "Our Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of Premier's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, expected to be filed with the SEC shortly after this release, and which will also be made available on Premier's website at investors.premierinc.com.
