Nutex Health is a physician-led, healthcare services and operations company with 27 hospital facilities in 12 states (hospital division), and a primary care-centric, risk-bearing physician network.

Financial highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2026:

• Net income attributable to Nutex Health increased to $65.8 million, or diluted EPS of $9.38, compared to a loss of $17.7 million, or diluted EPS of $(2.95), for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
• EBITDA attributable to Nutex Health was $94.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Nutex Health was $90.0 million, compared to $(0.5) million and $71.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
• Total visits at the Hospital Division increased 9.6% year over year to 49,962, while visits at same hospitals, which are hospitals that were opened by December 31, 2024, increased 6.3%.
• Net cash provided by operating activities was $34.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $27.3 million for the same period in 2025.

Financial highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2026:

• Net income attributable to Nutex Health increased to $112.6 million, or diluted EPS of $15.87, compared to $3.5 million, or diluted EPS of $0.55, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
• EBITDA attributable to Nutex Health was $162.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Nutex Health was $147.5 million, compared to $51.1 million and $144.4 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
• Total visits at the Hospital Division increased 6.2% year over year to 99,704, while visits at same hospitals increased 3.4%.
• Net cash provided by operating activities was $109.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $78.2 million for the same period in 2025; and as of June 30, 2026, the Company had long-term debt, net of $31.1 million, slightly up from $29.2 million as of December 31, 2025.

Note: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial metrics. A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP measures is included below in this earnings release.

Total revenue decreased 6.3% to $427.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $455.8 million for the same period in 2025, while revenue at same hospitals decreased 6.0%. Total revenue decreased 13.6% to $210.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $244.0 million for the same period in 2025, while revenue at same hospitals, decreased 12.1%. Most of the revenue decrease in 2026 compared to 2025 is due to the positive results from the early stage improvement in the IDR process that were realized in the first half of 2025.

The Company has submitted between 50–60% of its claims through IDR; when an award determination is made, Nutex Health currently prevails in over 85% of those determinations and collects, on average, over 80% of the award amounts.

Total arbitration-related costs decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, reflected as a $52.3 million reduction to contract services expense. The reduction was driven primarily by the favorable June 30, 2026 retroactive amendment to the Company's agreement with HaloMD and the reduction in the CMS administrative fee. The HaloMD amendment transitioned certain fees to a pay-on-collected basis retroactive to our original contract date of May 1, 2024 and revised service fee terms for federal and state net settlement amounts obtained on or after July 1, 2026. The CMS administrative fee for the federal IDR process was decreased from $115 to $15 per party per dispute effective June 11, 2026.  The cumulative impact from these two key changes directly reduced the contract services expenses for the second quarter and six months ended 2026 period by $52.3 million. Based on current expectations, we anticipate the impact of these favorable changes will lead to an approximate 25-30% reduction in our normalized historical contract services expenses prospectively. This impact is based on the current regulatory outlook and the Company's current expectations. Actual contract services expenses incurred in the future may differ significantly. One additional item within the HaloMD agreement is that the Company may perform dispute resolution services in-house or through the engagement of another third-party vendor or service provider with respect to certain future facilities.

Total stock-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was a gain of $1.0 million, compared to an expense of $106.4 million for the same period in 2025. Net income attributable to Nutex Health increased 3100% in the first six months of 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025, underscoring strong operating cash generation and execution of its planned growth strategy.

"2026 is continuing to be a solid financial year, including total revenue of $427.2 million, net income attributable to Nutex of $112.6 million, diluted EPS of $15.87 per share and $109.7 million of operating cash flow in the first six months of 2026. We also delivered meaningful operating income improvement, with operating income increasing to $203.0 million for the first six months of 2026 from $114.3 million in the same period of 2025, supported by lower total operating costs and expenses of $194.2 million compared to $212.5 million in the prior-year period. Our balance sheet remains strong with a cash balance of $205.2 million and  long-term debt of $31.1 million. We believe we are set up well for finishing the year strong as we continue to grow with the expected opening of three new hospital later this year," stated Jon Bates, Chief Financial Officer of Nutex Health.

"We are pleased with our progress through the first half of 2026, as our teams continue to execute on initiatives designed to strengthen internal processes and initiatives, expand patient access, and drive both patient volumes and inpatient admissions. Our operating performance, revenue cycle management execution, new hospital openings and disciplined expense management all contributed to improved profitability, including net income attributable to Nutex Health of $112.6 million and diluted EPS of $15.87 for the first six months of 2026," stated Tom Vo, M.D., MBA, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nutex Health.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as supplemental non-GAAP financial measures by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because these measures allow us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance.

We define EBITDA as net income attributable to Nutex Health Inc. plus interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Interest expense includes interest on lease liabilities, which is a component of total finance lease cost.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Nutex Health Inc. plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for stock-based compensation, finance lease payments related to leases under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842: Leases ("ASC 842"), certain defined items of expense and any acquisition-related costs and impairments. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is included below.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, we have updated our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA to separately disclose finance lease payments related to leases under ASC 842. We believe this update provides greater transparency into our operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to serve as alternatives to U.S. GAAP measures of performance and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA follow (in thousands):
