On a same-store basis, admissions decreased 18.1 percent and adjusted admissions decreased 24.2 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period in 2019.

On a same-store basis, net operating revenues decreased 18.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period in 2019.

The change in tax valuation allowance (which was one of the aforementioned adjusting items) had a positive impact of $240 million, or $2.09 per share (diluted), on net income attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders, and arose from discrete tax benefits related to the release of federal and state valuation allowances on IRC Section 163(j) interest carryforwards as a result of an increase to the deductible interest expense allowed for 2019 and 2020 under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) that was enacted during the six months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, payments received by the Company through the PHSSEF, as more specifically described below, had a positive impact on net income attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders (both on a consolidated and adjusted basis) of approximately $333 million, or $2.90 on a per share (diluted) basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

COVID – 19 Pandemic:
The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 beginning in the second half of March 2020 as the result of decreases in net operating revenues driven by a decline in patient volumes and increases in expenses related to supply chain and other expenditures.
The Company previously announced in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 6, 2020 (the “April 6 Form 8-K”), that it was withdrawing its 2020 financial guidance issued in its earnings release dated February 19, 2020. Consistent with disclosures made by the Company in the April 6 Form 8-K and in the Company’s earnings release for the first quarter filed on April 28, 2020, the Company is not able to fully quantify the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its financial results during 2020, but expects developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the CARES Act and PPPHCE Act as further discussed below, to materially affect the Company’s financial performance in 2020. Moreover, as a result of the continuously changing and unpredictable environment related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is not providing guidance in this earnings release.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, federal and state governments have passed legislation, promulgated regulations, and taken other administrative actions intended to assist healthcare providers in providing care to COVID-19 and other patients during the public health emergency. Sources of relief include the CARES Act, which was enacted on March 27, 2020, and the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act (the “PPPHCE Act”), which was enacted on April 24, 2020. Together, the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act include $175 billion in funding to be distributed to eligible providers through the PHSSEF. In addition, the CARES Act provided for an expansion of the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program.
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company received approximately $564 million in payments through the PHSSEF in both general and targeted distributions, net of amounts received for previously divested entities that are required to be repaid to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”). PHSSEF payments are intended to compensate healthcare providers for lost revenues and incremental expenses incurred in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and are not required to be repaid provided that recipients attest to and comply with certain terms and conditions, including limitations on balance billing and not using funds received from the PHSSEF to reimburse expenses or losses that other sources are obligated to reimburse. Approximately $448 million of the PHSSEF payments qualified as income for reimbursement of lost revenues and incremental expenses and was recognized as a reduction in operating costs and expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Amounts not recognized as a reduction to operating costs and expenses or that have not been refunded to HHS as of June 30, 2020, are reflected within accrued liabilities-other in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and such unrecognized amounts may be recognized as a reduction in operating costs and expenses in future periods if the underlying conditions for recognition are met. Additionally, approximately $109 million in payments through the PHSSEF have been received in July 2020 which did not qualify for recognition during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Medicare accelerated payments of approximately $1.2 billion were received during the three months ended June 30, 2020, via the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program. These are advances that providers must repay. The Medicare accelerated payments are interest free for up to 12 months and the program currently requires that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) recoup the accelerated payments beginning 120 days after receipt by the provider, by withholding future Medicare fee-for-service payments for claims until such time as the full accelerated payment has been recouped. The program currently requires that any outstanding balance remaining after 12 months must be repaid by the provider or be subjected to a 10.25% annual interest rate. Recoupment of accelerated Medicare payments received by the Company is currently expected to begin in August 2020. As of June 30, 2020, Medicare accelerated payments are reflected within accrued liabilities-other in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Effective April 26, 2020, CMS is reevaluating pending and new applications for accelerated payments in light of significant other relief provided by the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to receive additional Medicare accelerated payments.

The PHSSEF payments received to date as noted above and which the Company may receive in the future under the CARES Act and the PPPHCE Act, have been and may continue to be beneficial in partially mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s results of operations and financial position. Additionally, the federal government may consider additional stimulus and relief efforts, but we are unable to predict whether additional stimulus measures will be enacted or their impact, if any. The Company is unable to assess the extent to which anticipated ongoing negative impacts on the Company arising from the COVID-19 pandemic will be offset by amounts which the Company may recognize or receive in the future under the CARES Act, the PPPHCE Act and any future stimulus measures.
The Company completed the divestiture of three hospitals on January 1, 2020 (in respect of which the Company received proceeds at a preliminary closing on December 31, 2019), two hospitals on May 1, 2020, and two hospitals on July 1, 2020 (in respect of which the Company received proceeds at a preliminary closing on June 30, 2020) for a total of seven hospitals. In addition, the Company has entered into definitive agreements to sell a total of five hospitals, for which the Company expects to receive aggregate proceeds of approximately $430 million. These divestitures, subject to definitive agreements, which are expected to be completed at various times during the third and fourth quarters of 2020, will mark the end of the Company’s formal portfolio rationalization strategy, which commenced in 2017. There can be no assurance that these potential divestitures subject to definitive agreements will be completed, or if they are completed, the ultimate timing of the completion of these divestitures. The Company continues to receive interest from potential acquirers for certain of its hospitals, and may, from time to time, consider selling additional hospitals following the completion of the Company’s formal portfolio rationalization strategy.
Financial and statistical data for 2019 and 2020 presented in this press release includes the operating results of divested hospitals through the effective closing date of each respective divestiture. Same-store operating results exclude the results of a hospital acquired in 2019 and the hospitals divested in 2019 and 2020.
Information About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release presents Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, which is EBITDA adjusted to add back net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and to exclude loss (gain) from early extinguishment of debt, impairment and loss on sale of businesses, expense related to government and other legal settlements and related costs, expense related to employee termination benefits and other restructuring charges, expense from settlement and fair value adjustments on the CVR agreement liability related to the Health Management Associates, Inc. (“HMA”) legal proceedings and related legal expenses, the impact of changes in estimate to increase the professional liability claims accrual recorded during the second quarter of 2019 (which estimate was further revised in the third quarter of 2019 based on updated actuarial analysis) with respect to claims incurred in 2016 and prior years and expense related to the valuation allowance recorded in the second quarter of 2019 to reserve the outstanding balance of a promissory note received from the buyer in connection with the sale of two of the Company’s hospitals in 2017, as well as income from a reduction of the valuation allowance on the outstanding balance of a promissory note from the buyer of another hospital. For information regarding why the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors, and for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders, see footnote (c) to the Financial Highlights, Financial Statements and Selected Operating Data below.
Additionally, this earnings release presents adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders per share (diluted), a non-GAAP financial measure, to reflect the impact on net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders per share (diluted) from the selected items used in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. For information regarding why the Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors, and for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders per share (diluted), see footnote (e) to the Financial Highlights, Financial Statements and Selected Operating Data below.

| (a) | Both financial and statistical results include the operating results of divested hospitals through the effective closing date of each respective divestiture.

There were no discontinued operations reported for 2019 and 2020. |

| (c) | EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which consists of net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP financial measure, is EBITDA adjusted to add back net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and to exclude loss (gain) from early extinguishment of debt, impairment and loss on sale of businesses, expense related to government and other legal settlements and related costs, expense related to employee termination benefits and other restructuring charges, expense from settlement and fair value adjustments on the CVR agreement liability related to the HMA legal proceedings and related legal expenses, the impact of changes in estimate to increase the professional liability claims accrual recorded during the second quarter of 2019 (which estimate was further revised in the third quarter of 2019 based on updated actuarial analysis) with respect to claims incurred in 2016 and prior years, and expense related to the valuation allowance recorded in the second quarter of 2019 to reserve the outstanding balance of a promissory note received from the buyer in connection with the sale of two of the Company’s hospitals in 2017, as well as income from a reduction of the valuation allowance on the outstanding balance of a promissory note from the buyer of another hospital. The Company has from time to time sold noncontrolling interests in certain of its subsidiaries or acquired subsidiaries with existing noncontrolling interest ownership positions. The Company believes that it is useful to present Adjusted EBITDA because it adds back the portion of EBITDA attributable to these third-party interests and clarifies for investors the Company’s portion of EBITDA generated by continuing operations. The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company’s hospital operations and to make decisions on the allocation of resources. Adjusted EBITDA is also used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s executive management team and is one of the primary metrics used in connection with determining short-term cash incentive compensation and the achievement of vesting criteria with respect to performance-based equity awards. In addition, management utilizes Adjusted EBITDA in assessing the Company’s consolidated results of operations and operational performance and in comparing the Company’s results of operations between periods. The Company believes it is useful to provide investors and other users of the Company’s financial statements this performance measure to align with how management assesses the Company’s results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA also is comparable to a similar metric called Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Company’s asset-based loan facility (the “ABL Facility”), which is a key component in the determination of the Company’s compliance with certain covenants under the ABL Facility (including the Company’s ability to service debt and incur capital expenditures), and is used to determine the interest rate and commitment fee payable under the ABL Facility (although Adjusted EBITDA does not include all of the adjustments described in the ABL Facility). |

Footnotes to Financial Highlights, Financial Statements and Selected Operating Data (Continued)
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating financial performance. The Company believes such adjustments are appropriate as the magnitude and frequency of such items can vary significantly and are not related to the assessment of normal operating performance. Additionally, this calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The following table reflects the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, to net income (loss) attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders as derived directly from the condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions):

The effect of restricted stock and stock option awards on the diluted shares calculation was an increase of 41,253 shares and 59,533 shares during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company generated a net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, so the effect of dilutive securities is not considered because their effect would be antidilutive. If the Company had generated net income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the effect of restricted stock and stock option awards on the diluted shares calculation would have been an increase in shares of 30,472 and 44,867, respectively.
