NEW YORK, NY — February 28, 2023 — MultiPlan Corporation (“MultiPlan” or the “Company”) (NYSE: MPLN), a leading value-added provider of data analytics and technology-enabled end-to-end cost management, payment and revenue integrity solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.
“As we close 2022, I’m proud of the progress MultiPlan has made, even as we withstood a period of softness in the second half of the year,” said Dale White, CEO of MultiPlan. “We continued to deliver critical value to stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem by processing $155.2 billion in medical charges and identifying $22.3 billion in potential medical cost savings. And, we successfully navigated one of the most significant regulatory changes in the history of U.S. healthcare by helping our customers through the complexities of the new No Surprises Act.”
“Further, we have continued to take steps to strengthen our business,” added Mr. White. “We are pleased to announce that, since our last earnings call, we renewed a multi-year contract with another one of our larger customers. During the fourth quarter, we made progress on debt reduction, and with over $300 million of cash remaining on our balance sheet, we will continue to be opportunistic regarding capital allocation given market conditions. And importantly, we led our team through an extensive, forward-looking review of our service and product positioning, and enacted a concrete plan to reposition our business for growth in the coming years.”
Mr. White concluded, “The year 2023 will be a pivotal one for MultiPlan, as the steps we are taking to reposition the business will help us land on solid footing with greater visibility and resume growth in 2024 and beyond.”
Business and Financial Highlights
•Revenues of $241.1 million for Q4 2022, a decrease of 19.2% over Q4 2021 revenues of $298.3 million.
•Net loss of $650.1 million for Q4 2022, compared to net income of $24.9 million for Q4 2021. The net loss was principally due to an impairment charge of $662.2 million for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles recorded.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $161.5 million for Q4 2022, compared to $223.6 million for Q4 2021.
•Revenues of $1,079.7 million for full year 2022, a decrease of 3.4% over full year 2021 revenues of $1,117.6 million.
•Net loss for full year 2022 of $572.9 million compared to net income of $102.1 million for full year 2021. The net loss was principally due to an impairment charge of $662.2 million for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles recorded.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $768.7 million for full year 2022, compared to $838.3 million for full year 2021.
•Net cash provided by operating activities of $372.4 million for full year 2022, compared to $404.7 million for full year 2021.
•Free Cash Flow of $282.6 million for full year 2022, compared to $320.1 million for full year 2021.
•In the fourth quarter, the Company used $100 million of cash to repurchase $136 million face value of its 5.750% Senior Unsecured Notes. The Company ended the fourth quarter with $334 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet.
•The Company processed $39.0 billion in medical charges during the fourth quarter 2022, identifying potential medical cost savings of approximately $5.4 billion. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company processed approximately $155.2 billion in medical charges and identified approximately $22.3 billion in potential medical cost savings compared to $144.2 billion medical charges and approximately $22.1 billion in potential medical cost savings for the year ended December 31, 2021.
•Based on the results of the annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2022, the estimated fair values of our goodwill and indefinite-lived assets were less than their carrying values and as a result impairment charges of $657.9 million for our goodwill and $4.3 million for our indefinite-lived intangibles were recorded.
The full year 2022 results reflect an estimated COVID-related revenue impact of $12-20 million and an estimated COVID-related Adjusted EBITDA impact of $8-16 million, as compared to an estimated COVID-related revenue impact of $40-50 million and an estimated COVID-related Adjusted EBITDA impact of $32-40 million for full year 2021. Given the de minimis net COVID impact in 2022, particularly in the second half of the year, the Company will discontinue disclosure of the net COVID-related revenue and adjusted EBITDA impacts going forward.

1 We have not reconciled the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance included above to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs, the most significant of which are incentive compensation (including stock-based compensation), transaction-related expenses (including expenses relating to the business combination), certain fair value measurements and costs related to the uncertainties caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
2 Cash flow from operations guidance includes the impact of approximately $24 million in payments that MultiPlan anticipates making in connection with the settlement of our previously disclosed Delaware stockholder litigation. This amount is reflected as an accrued contingent liability on our balance sheet dated December 31, 2022.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release includes statements that express our and our subsidiaries’ opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements”. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “seeks,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this press release, including the discussion of 2023 outlook and guidance and the long-term prospects of the Company. Such forward-looking statements are based on available current market information and management’s expectations, beliefs and forecasts concerning future events impacting the business. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions at the time they are made, you should be aware that these forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include: the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its related effects on our results of operations, financial performance, liquidity or other financial metrics; loss of our customers, particularly our largest customers; trends in the U.S. healthcare system, including recent trends of unknown duration of reduction healthcare utilization and increased patient responsibility for services; inability to preserve or increase our existing market share or the size of our Preferred Provider Organization networks; effects of competition; effects of pricing pressure; the inability of our customers to pay for our services; decreases in discounts from providers; the loss of our existing relationships with providers; the loss of key members of our management team or inability to maintain sufficient qualified personnel; pressure to limit access to preferred provider networks; the ability to achieve the goals of our strategic plans and recognize the anticipated strategic, operational, growth and efficiency benefits when expected; our ability to enter new lines of business and broaden the scope of our services; our ability to identify, complete and successfully integrate acquisitions; our ability to obtain additional financing; changes in our industry and in industry standards and technology; interruptions or security breaches of our information technology systems and other cybersecurity attacks; our ability to protect proprietary information, processes and applications; our ability to maintain the licenses or right of use for the software we use; our inability to expand our network infrastructure; changes in accounting principles or the incurrence of impairment charges; our ability to remediate any material weaknesses or maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting; our ability to continue to attract, motivate and retain a large number of skilled employees, and adapt to the effects of inflationary pressure on wages; changes in our regulatory environment, including healthcare law and regulations; the expansion of privacy and security laws; heightened enforcement activity by government agencies; our ability to pay interest and principal on our notes and other indebtedness; lowering or withdrawal of our credit ratings; the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other political, economic, business, and/or competitive factors; adverse outcomes related to litigation or governmental proceedings; other factors disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings; and other factors beyond our control.
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on our business. There can be no assurance that future
developments affecting our business will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022; and other documents filed or to be filed with the SEC by us. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.
We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Unlevered Free Cash Flow and Adjusted cash conversion ratio. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial or operating performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Unlevered Free Cash Flow and Adjusted cash conversion ratio are supplemental measures of MultiPlan’s performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are not measurements of our financial or operating performance under GAAP, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net (loss) income, cash flows or any other measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA represents net (loss) income before interest expense, interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and non-income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA as further adjusted by certain items as described in the table below.
In addition, in evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The calculations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Based on our industry and debt financing experience, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are customarily used by investors, analysts and other interested parties to provide useful information regarding a company’s ability to service and/or incur indebtedness.
We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and analysts in assessing our operating performance during the periods these charges were incurred on a consistent basis with the periods during which these charges were not incurred. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider either in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations are:
•EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
•EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
•EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; and
•Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the tangible assets being depreciated will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
MultiPlan’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results and financial position will be unaffected by unusual items.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, all as disclosed in the Statements of Cash Flows. Unlevered Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, plus cash interest paid, all as disclosed in the Statements of Cash Flows. Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Free Cash Flow are measures of our operational performance used by management to evaluate our business after purchases of property and equipment and, in the case of Unlevered Free Cash Flow, prior to the impact of our capital structure. Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, consolidated net income as a measure of our performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, MultiPlan’s definitions of Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Free Cash Flow are limited, in that they do not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measures do not deduct the payments required for debt service, in the case of Unlevered Free Cash Flow, and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions.
Adjusted cash conversion ratio is defined as Unlevered Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. MultiPlan believes that the presentation of the Adjusted cash conversion ratio provides useful information to investors because it is an financial performance measure that shows how much of its Adjusted EBITDA MultiPlan converts into Unlevered Free Cash Flow.
