There are significant uncertainties associated with estimating revenue, many of which generally take several years to resolve. These estimates are subject to ongoing insurance coverage changes, geographic coverage differences, differing interpretations of contract coverage and other payor issues, as well as patient issues, including determination of applicable primary and secondary coverage, changes in patient insurance coverage and coordination of benefits. As these estimates are refined over time, both positive and negative adjustments to revenue are recognized in the current period.
Dialysis patient service revenues. Revenues are recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Dialysis patient service revenues are recognized in the period services are provided based on these estimates. Revenues consist primarily of payments from government and commercial health plans for dialysis services provided to patients. The Company maintains a usual and customary fee schedule for its dialysis treatments and related lab services; however, actual collectible revenue is normally recognized at a discount from the fee schedule.

However, the ultimate impact of this COVID-19 pandemic on the Company will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including among others the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic; further spread or resurgence of the virus, including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus such as the Omicron variant and its subvariants; COVID-19's impact on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient population and the Company's patient population, including on the mortality of these patients; the availability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, treatments, and therapies; the pandemic's continuing impact on the Company's revenue and non-acquired growth due to lower treatment volumes, the U.S. and global economies, labor market conditions, interest rates, inflation and monetary policies, as well as the Company's ability to successfully implement cost savings initiatives in response; the potential negative impact on the Company's commercial mix or the number of patients covered by commercial insurance plans; continued increased COVID-19-related costs; supply chain challenges and disruptions; the responses of the Company's competitors to the pandemic and related changes in the marketplace; the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local government responses to the pandemic; and any potential changes to the extensive set of federal, state and local laws, regulations and requirements that govern the Company's business. While the Company does not currently expect a material adverse impact to its business as a result of this public health crisis,the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurance that the magnitude of the cumulative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including certain conditions and developments in the U.S. and global economies, labor market conditions, inflation and monetary policies that may have been intensified by the pandemic, will not have a material adverse impact on one or more of the Company's businesses.
Developments, events, changes in operating performance and other changes in key circumstances since the dates of the Company’s last annual goodwill impairment assessments have not caused management to believe it is more likely than not that the fair values of any of the Company's reporting units would be less than their respective carrying amounts as of June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. Except for the Company's Germany kidney care reporting unit as described further in Note 10 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 20212022 10-K, none of the Company's various other reporting units were considered at risk of significant goodwill impairment as of June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.

7.    Commitments and contingencies
The majority of the Company’s revenues are from government programs and may be subject to adjustment as a result of: (i) examination by government agencies or contractors, for which the resolution of any matters raised may take extended periods of time to finalize; (ii) differing interpretations of government regulations by different Medicare contractors or regulatory authorities; (iii) differing opinions regarding a patient’s medical diagnosis or the medical necessity of services provided; and (iv) retroactive applications or interpretations of governmental requirements. In addition, the Company’s revenues from commercial payors may be subject to adjustment as a result of potential claims for refunds, as a result of government actions or as a result of other claims by commercial payors.
The Company operates in a highly regulated industry and is a party to various lawsuits, demands, claims, qui tam suits, governmental investigations (which frequently arise from qui tam suits) and audits (including, without limitation, investigations or other actions resulting from its obligation to self-report suspected violations of law) and other legal proceedings, including, without limitation, those described below. The Company records accruals for certain legal proceedings and regulatory matters to the extent that the Company determines an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company’s total recorded accruals with respect to legal proceedings and regulatory matters, net of anticipated third party recoveries, were immaterial. While these accruals reflect the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss for those matters as of the dates of those accruals, the recorded amounts may differ materially from the actual amount of the losses for those matters, and any anticipated third party recoveries for any such losses may not ultimately be recoverable. Additionally, in some cases, no estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, can be made because of the inherently unpredictable nature of legal proceedings and regulatory matters, which also may be impacted by various factors, including, without limitation, that they may involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages or may involve fines, penalties or non-monetary remedies; present novel legal theories or legal uncertainties; involve disputed facts; represent a shift in regulatory policy; are in the early stages of the proceedings; or may result in a change of business practices. Further, there may be various levels of judicial review available to the Company in connection with any such proceeding.
The following is a description of certain lawsuits, claims, governmental investigations and audits and other legal proceedings to which the Company is subject.

Other than as may be described above, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcomes of the various legal proceedings and regulatory matters to which the Company is or may be subject from time to time, including those described in this Note 7, or the timing of their resolution or the ultimate losses or impact of developments in those matters, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, earnings and cash flows.

10.    Acquisitions and divestitures
Routine acquisitions
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company acquired dialysis businesses consisting of 5 dialysis centers located outside the U.S. for total net cash of $9,491, contingent earn-out obligations of $523 and deferred purchase price and liabilities assumed of $5,784. The assets and liabilities for these acquisitions were recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates of the acquisitions and are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, as are their operating results, from the designated effective dates of the acquisitions.
The initial purchase price allocations have been recorded at estimated fair values based on information available to management and will be finalized when certain information arranged to be obtained has been received. In particular, certain income tax amounts are pending final evaluation and quantification of any pre-acquisition tax contingencies. In addition, valuation of intangibles, leases and certain other working capital items relating to these acquisitions are pending final quantification.
The amount of goodwill recognized or adjusted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 that is deductible for tax purposes was $(1,145).

Contingent earn-out obligations
The Company has several contingent earn-out obligations associated with acquisitions that could result in the Company paying the former owners of acquired businesses a total of up to approximately $64,846 if certain performance targets or quality margins are met over the next one year to five years.
Contingent earn-out obligations are remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingencies are resolved with changes in the liability due to the remeasurement recognized in earnings. As of June 30, 2022, the Company estimated the fair value of these contingent earn-out obligations to be $29,299, of which $10,047 is included in other current liabilities and the remaining $19,252 is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

11.    Fair values of financial instruments
The Company measures the fair value of certain assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions (redeemable equity interests classified as temporary equity) based upon certain valuation techniques that include observable or unobservable inputs and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing these assets, liabilities, temporary equity and commitments. The Company has also classified assets, liabilities and temporary equities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the appropriate fair value hierarchy levels as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).

Investments in equity securities represent investments in various open-ended registered investment companies (mutual funds) and common stocks and are recorded at fair value estimated based on reported market prices or redemption prices, as applicable. See Note 4 for further discussion.
Interest rate cap agreements are recorded at fair value estimated from valuation models utilizing the income approach and commonly accepted valuation techniques that use inputs from closing prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other relevant observable market inputs at quoted intervals such as current interest rates, forward yield curves, implied volatility and credit default swap pricing. The Company does not believe the ultimate amount that could be realized upon settlement of these interest rate cap agreements would be materially different from the fair value estimates currently reported. See Note 6 for further discussion.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had contingent earn-out obligations associated with acquisitions that could result in the Company paying the former owners of acquired businesses a total of up to approximately $59,351 if certain performance targets or quality margins are met over the next one year to five years. The estimated fair value measurements of contingent earn-out obligations are primarily based on unobservable inputs, including projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), revenue and certain operating metrics.key performance indicators. The estimated fair values of these contingent earn-out obligations are remeasured as of each reporting date and could fluctuate based upon any significant changes in key assumptions, such as changes in the Company's credit risk adjusted rate that is used to discount obligations to present value. See Note 10 for further discussion.
The estimated fair value of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions is based principally on the higher of either estimated liquidation value of net assets or a multiple of earnings for each subject dialysis partnership, based on historical earnings, revenue mix, and other performance indicators that can affect future results. The multiples used for these valuations are derived from observed ownership transactions for dialysis businesses between unrelated parties in the U.S. in recent years, and the specific valuation multiple applied to each dialysis partnership is principally determined by its recent and expected revenue mix and contribution margin. As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, an increase or decrease in the weighted average multiple used in these valuations of one times EBITDA would change the estimated fair value of these noncontrolling interests by approximately $175,000. See Notes 17 and 24 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 20212022 10-K for further discussion of the Company’s methodology for estimating the fair value of noncontrolling interests subject to put obligations.

DaVita undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changed circumstances, new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Actual future events and results could differ materially from any forward-looking statements due to numerous factors that involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things:
the continuing impact of the dynamic and evolving COVID-19 pandemic, including, without limitation,current macroeconomic and marketplace conditions, and global events, many of which are interrelated and which relate to, among other things, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our patients, teammates, physician partners, suppliers, business, operations, reputation, financial condition and results of operations; the government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including, among other things, federal, state and local vaccine mandates or surveillance testing requirements andongoing pandemic; the extent to which they may ultimately be applicable to us; the pandemic's continuing impact on the U.S. and global economies, unemployment and other labor market conditions, interest rates, inflation and evolving monetary policies; the availability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, treatments and therapies; further spread or resurgence of the virus, including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus, such as the Omicron variant and its subvariants;virus; the continuing impact of the pandemic on our revenuerevenues and non-acquired growth due to lower treatment volumes; COVID-19's impact on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) population and our patient population including on the mortality of these patients; any potential negative impact on our commercial mix or the number of our patients covered by commercial insurance plans; continued increased COVID-19-related costs; our ability to successfully implement planned cost savings initiatives in response to COVID-19-related impacts on us;initiatives; supply chain challenges and disruptions, including with respect to our clinical supplies;disruptions; and elevated teammate turnover and training costs and higher salary and wage expenseexpense. including, among other things, increased contract wages, driven in part by persisting labor market conditions and a high demand for our clinical personnel, any of which may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks and uncertainties discussed below, and in many cases, the impact of the pandemic and the aforementioned global economic conditions on our business may persist even after the pandemic subsides;
the extent to which the ongoing implementation of healthcare reform, or changes in or new legislation, regulations or guidance, enforcement thereof or related litigation result in a reduction in coverage or reimbursement rates for our services, a reduction in the number of patients enrolled in or that select higher-paying commercial plans, including for example Medicare Advantage ("MA") plans; or other material impacts to our business or operations; or our making incorrect assumptions about how our patients will respond to any such developments;

Company Overview
Our principal business is to provide dialysis and related lab services to patients in the United States, which we refer to as our U.S. dialysis business. We also operate our U.S. integrated kidney care (IKC) business, our U.S. other U.S. ancillary services, and our international operations, which we collectively refer to as our ancillary services, as well as our corporate administrative support. Our U.S. dialysis business is a leading provider of kidney dialysis services in the U.S. for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, also known as end stage renal disease (ESRD) or end stage kidney disease (ESKD).
COVID-19, General Economic and Marketplace Conditions
Developments in general economic and Legalmarket conditions could have a material adverse impact on our patients, teammates, physician partners, suppliers, business, operations, reputation, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or liquidity. Many of these external factors and Regulatory Developments
Theconditions are interrelated, including, among other things, the continuing impact of COVID-19 pandemic continues to impacton the mortality rates of our businesspatients and operations. In addition, we continue to be impacted by generalother ESRD or CKD patients, supply chain challenges, inflation, rising interest rates, labor market conditions in the global economy, including challenges with respect to supply chains, inflation and wage pressure, among other things.pressure. Certain of these impacts could be further intensified by concurrent global events such as COVID-19 lockdowns in portions of China or the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the latter of which has resulted in increasing levels ofcontinued to drive sociopolitical and economic uncertainty and volatility in Europe and across the globe. In addition, we are monitoring the situation around the recent spread of the monkeypox virus and have worked with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to develop related protocols.Legal and regulatory developments may also impact our business and operations, such as the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling related to the Medicare Secondary Payer Act (MSPA), as well as the commencement of price transparency regulation enforcement.
Operational and Financial Impacts
As partIn the first quarter of our continued focus2023, we saw an increase in treatment volume compared to the prior quarter due primarily to a higher patient census. However, we continue to experience a negative impact on revenue and treatment volume on a full year over full year basis due to the cumulative negative impact of COVID-19 on the health, safety and well-beingmortality rates of our patients, teammates and physician partners,which has in turn had an adverse impact on our patient census over time. As the pandemic continues to subside, we have continued to dedicate substantial resources in response toexpect that the impact of COVID-19 including the implementation of additional protocols and initiatives to help safely maintain continuity of care for our patients and help protect our caregivers. Cases resulting from the Omicron variant and subvariants required us towill likely continue to implement dedicated care shiftsnegatively impact our revenue and non-acquired growth for patients with confirmed or suspecteda period of time due to the compounding impact of mortalities, among other things. New admission rates, future revenues and non-acquired growth could also continue to be negatively impacted over time to the extent that the CKD population experiences elevated mortality levels due to the pandemic. There remains significant uncertainty as to the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our treatment volumes, in part due to, among other things, the indeterminate severity and other enhanced clinical practices, including procuring additional equipmentduration of the pandemic and clinical supplies, such as personal protective equipment (PPE).
During the second quartercomplexity of 2022, these ongoing clinical measures have continued to strain staffing in an already challenging labor market. Additionally, as a resultfactors that may drive new admissions and missed treatment rates over time. Depending on the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic, the magnitude of these ongoing COVID-19-related clinical measures, in combination withcumulative impacts could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Ongoing global economic conditions, such as general labor, supply chain and inflationary pressures, combined with the impact of COVID-19, have also increased, and will continue to increase, our expenses, including, among others, staffing and labor costs. While we continued to experience elevated levels of compensation and training expenses during the first quarter, we have incurred higher incentive pay, increasedexperienced improvement in labor costs, primarily due to decreased utilization of contract labor and inefficient productivity. In addition, during 2022, we have experienced andin the first quarter. We expect certain of these increased costs to continue, to experience increased labor costs. Theand the cumulative impact of the foregoing will continue to put additional pressure on our cost structure, some of which is expected to abate with the decline of the impact of COVID-19. Potentialthese costs could be material. In addition, potential staffing shortages or disruptions, if material, could ultimately lead to the unplanned closures of certain centers or adversely impact clinical operations, and may otherwise have a material adverse impact on our ability to provide dialysis services or the cost of providing those services, among other things. ProlongedIn the first quarter, we also saw a continued elevated level of effort and cost needed to procure certain of our equipment and clinical supplies, including dialysis supplies.
The staffing and labor cost inflation described above, in addition to higher equipment and clinical supply costs, have put pressure on our existing cost structure, and as noted above, we expect that certain of those increased costs will persist as global supply chains continue to experience volatility uncertainty, labor supply shortages and otherdisruptions and as inflationary pressures and challenging labor market conditions including, among other things, duecontinue. During the first quarter, we continued to inflationary pressures or evolving monetary policies that may be independent of the COVID-19 pandemic, could also have an adverse impact on our growth and ability to execute on our other strategic initiatives and a material adverse impact on our labor costs.
These inflationary pressures and evolving monetary policies, as well as ongoing global supply chain challenges, also have more broadly impacted our supply and other costs, and may continue to drive certain increased expenses, including, among other things, with respect to other medical and other supplies and interest expense. We continue to identify and implement cost savings opportunities to help mitigate these pressures, including potentialcost and volume pressures. These include, among other things, anticipated cost savings related to G&Acertain general and administrative cost efficiencies, such as ongoing initiatives that increase our use of third party service providers to perform certain activities, including, among others, finance and accounting functions as well as related information technology functions; initiatives relating to clinic optimization and initiatives for capacity utilization improvementimprovement; and procurement includingopportunities. We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, charges in connection with the continued implementation of certain pharmaceutical supplies. However,of these initiatives, and there iscan be no assurance that we will be able to successfully execute these initiatives or that they will achieve expectations or otherwise be successful, or succeed in helping offset the impact of these challenging conditions, whichconditions. Any failure on our part to adjust our business and operations in this manner, to adjust to other marketplace developments or dynamics or to appropriately implement these initiatives in accordance with applicable legal, regulatory or compliance requirements could adversely impact our ability to provide dialysis services or the cost of providing those services, among other things, and ultimately could have a material adverse impacteffect on our business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Our COVID-19 response has reduced certain expenses, such as those related to teammate travel, though it remains uncertain how much of these reductions, if any, will persist as our teammates return to their respective office locations.
In the second quarter, treatment volumes continued to reflect the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on mortality rates and missed treatments for dialysis patients which has had a negative impact on our patient census. While the mortality rates associated with the latest Omicron and subvariants surge preliminarily appear to be lower than in prior surges, the magnitude of the case increases has resulted in an increased level of excess patient mortalities through the course of this surge. We expect that the impact of COVID-19 is likely to continue to negatively impact our revenue and non-acquired growth for a period of time even as the pandemic subsides due to the compounding impact of mortalities, among other things. Depending on the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic, the magnitude of these cumulative impacts could have a material adverse

impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In light of the cumulative impact of these excess mortalities and these other marketplace dynamics and economic conditions that have, in some cases, been intensified by the pandemic, we are seeking to identify and implement cost savings opportunities as noted above, and any failure on our part to appropriately adjust our business and operations in this manner could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows and could materially harm our reputation.
Federal, State and Local Government COVID-19 Response
Federal COVID-19 relief legislation suspended the 2% Medicare sequestration from May 1, 2020 through December 31, 2021. The Protecting Medicare and American Farmers from Sequester Cuts Act, signed into law on December 10, 2021, extended the suspension of the 2% Medicare sequestration from December 31, 2021 through March 31, 2022, with 1% Medicare sequestration in effect from April 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022 and 2% Medicare sequestration in effect beginning July 1, 2022. While in effect, the suspension of sequestration significantly increased our revenues.
We believe the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 public health crisispandemic and the aforementioned general economic and marketplace conditions on the Company over time will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including among others the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic; further spread or resurgence of the virus, including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus, such as the Omicron variant and its subvariants; COVID-19'spredict. We expect that these conditions will continue to impact on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient population and our patient population, including on the mortality of these patients; the availability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, treatments and therapies; the pandemic’s continuing impact on our revenue and non-acquired growth due to lower treatment volumes, the U.S. and global economies, labor market conditions, interest rates, inflation and monetary policies, as well as our ability to successfully implement cost-savings initiatives in response; the potential negative impact on our commercial mix or the number of patients covered by commercial insurance plans; continued increased COVID-19-related costs; supply chain challenges and disruptions; the responses of our competitors to the pandemic and related changes in the marketplace; the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local government responses to the continuing pandemic; and any potential changes to the extensive set of federal, state and local laws, regulations and requirements that govern our business. In many cases, the impact of the pandemic and the aforementioned global economic and marketplace conditions on our business may persist after the pandemic subsidies.in 2023.

Our U.S. dialysis treatment volume is directly correlated with our operating revenues and expenses. The decrease in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the first quarter of 2023 from the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by two fewer treatment days, partially offset by increased average treatments per day due to increased admits due to growth in our patient population.
The increase in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily driven by increased average treatments per day due to decreased mortality in our patient population.

Our U.S. dialysis treatment volume is directly correlated with our operating revenues and expenses. The increase in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the second quarter of 2022 from the first quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by one additional treatment day and fewer missed treatments.
The decrease in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by the impact of increased mortality over recent periods on our patient population, slightly offset by acquisition-related growth. We believe the increased mortality is largely attributable to the impact of COVID-19 on our patient population.

Charges impacting operating income
(1)Closure costs.General During the third quarter of 2022, we began a strategic review of our outpatient clinic capacity requirements and utilization, which have been impacted both by declines in our patient census in some markets due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as by our initiatives toward, and advances in, increasing the proportion of our home dialysis patients. This review has resulted in higher than normal charges for center capacity closures.
During the first quarter of 2023, we incurred charges for U.S. dialysis center closures of approximately $22.2 million, which increased our patient care costs by $12.6 million, our general and administrative expenses forby $4.8 million and our depreciation and amortization expense by $4.8 million. By comparison, during the six months ended June 30,fourth quarter of 2022, includes advocacyU.S. dialysis center closures were approximately $35.3 million, which increased our patient care costs by $6.0 million, our general and administrative expenses by $5.3 million and our depreciation and amortization expense by $24.0 million. During the first quarter of 2022, U.S. dialysis center closures were approximately $23$4.5 million, which increased our patient care costs by $2.9 million, our general and administrative expenses by $1.4 million and our depreciation and amortization expense by $0.2 million. These capacity closures costs included net losses on assets retired, lease costs, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation and amortization.
We will continue to counter union policy efforts, includingoptimize our U.S. dialysis center footprint through center mergers and/or closures and expect our center closure rates to remain at elevated levels over the next several quarters.
Severance costs. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we committed to a California ballot initiative.plan to increase efficiencies and cost savings in certain general and administrative support functions. As a result of this plan, we recognized expenses related to termination and other benefit commitments in our U.S. dialysis business of $16.9 million and $17.0 million during first quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively.
Patient care costs. U.S. dialysis patient care costs per treatment for the secondfirst quarter of 20222023 decreased from the firstfourth quarter of 2022 primarily due to decreased other direct operating expenses associated with our dialysis centers, including decreased utilities expense due to seasonality and our virtual power purchase arrangements. In addition, our fixed other direct operating expenses positively impacted patient care costs per treatment due to increased treatments in the second quarter of 2022. Other drivers of this change include declines in compensation expenses primarily related to seasonal decreases in payroll taxes, as well as decreases inpharmaceutical costs, health benefit expenses, professional fees, pharmaceutical unit costscontract wages and medical suppliesinsurance expense. These decreases were partially offset by increased insurance expense.increases in compensation expenses and fixed other direct operating expenses in our dialysis centers due to fewer number of treatments in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, our patient costs per treatment were negatively impacted by increases in center closure costs, as described above, and costs related to management meetings.

U.S. dialysis depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased primarily related to increased depreciation and amortization for hardware associated with our new clinical system and other corporate technology projects, as well as the development of new centers, partially offset by a decline in accelerated depreciation for expected center closures. Beginning in the third quarter of 2022 we expect depreciation and amortization expenses to increase as a result of recognizing a full quarter of depreciation for our new clinical system.operating fewer centers.
Equity investment income. U.S. dialysis equity investment income wasdecreased for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 due to a decline in profitability at certain nonconsolidated dialysis partnerships.

Other—Ancillary services
Our other operations include ancillary services that are primarily aligned with our core business of providing dialysis services to our network of patients. As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, these consisted principally of our U.S. integrated kidney care (IKC)IKC business, certain U.S. other ancillary businesses (including our clinical research programs, transplant software business, and venture investment group), and our international operations.
These ancillary services generated revenues of approximately $283 million and $548$284 million in the secondfirst quarter of 2022 and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively,2023, representing approximately 10% of our consolidated revenues in both periods.revenues.
As part of our growth strategy, we have invested, and expect to continue to invest, significant resources in the further development of ourMarch 31, 2023, DaVita IKC provided integrated care business and value-baseddisease management services to approximately 67,000 patients in risk-based integrated care initiatives. There can be no assurances that we will be ablearrangements and to successfully implement our strategies with respect to value-basedan additional 15,000 patients in other integrated care and integrated kidney care in the desired time frame and in a complex, dynamic and highly regulated environment, and we face risks including, among other things, those related to maintaining our existing business, recovering our investments, entering into agreements with payors, physicians, third party vendors and others on terms that are competitive, and as appropriate, that prove actuarially sound; structuring these agreements and arrangements to comply with evolving rules and regulations, including, among other things, rules and regulations related to the use of protected health information; and further developing our operational, IT and other capabilities to enable us to provide competitive programs at scale. If our value-based care and integrated kidney care programs are unsuccessful, it could result in a loss of our investments and have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, and could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Furthermore, if any of our other ancillary services, such as our international operations, are unsuccessful, this could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and we may determine to exit that line of business, which could result in significant termination costs or loss of investment. In addition, we have in the past and may in the future incur material restructuring, write-off or impairment charges on our investment in one or more of these ancillary services, including goodwill.

While these opportunitiesadditional strategic initiatives in the future as circumstances warrant, which could include, among other things, healthcare services not related to dialysis, we have focuseddialysis.

Charges impacting operating income - severance and other costs
During the fourth quarter of 2022, similar to U.S. dialysis, we committed to a plan to increase efficiencies and cost savings in certain general and administrative support functions and other overhead costs. As a result of this plan, we recognized expenses related to termination and other benefit commitments in our IKC business of $0.4 million and $0.5 million during the first quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively. We recognized these expenses and other charges in our international operations of $7.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2022.

See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for components of our long-term debt and their interest rates.rates, as well as Note 14 concerning amendments to our senior secured credit facilities entered into subsequent to March 31, 2023. We may from time to time seek to obtain funds or refinance existing debt through additional debt financings or other capital alternatives.
The COVID-19 pandemic efforts to prevent its spread, and other government actions intended to support those effortscertain economic and marketplace conditions, including inflationary and labor pressures, have dramatically impacted global economic activity and driven increased volatility in the financial markets. We have maintained business process continuity during the COVID-19 pandemic by enabling most back office teammates to work remotely, and aspressure on our cash flows. As of the date of this report, we have not experienced a material deterioration in our liquidity position as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.or those global economic and market conditions. The ultimate impact of the pandemic and those economic and market conditions will depend on future developments that remainare highly uncertain and difficult to predict.
We believe that our cash flow from operations and other sources of liquidity, including from amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities and our access to the capital markets, will be sufficient to fund our scheduled debt service under the terms of our debt agreements and other obligations for the foreseeable future, including the next 12 months. Our primary recurrent sources of liquidity are cash from operations and cash from borrowings, which are subject to general, economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control, as described in Item 1A Risk Factors of our 20212022 10-K.
Reconciliations of non-GAAPNon-GAAP measures
The following tables provide reconciliations of adjusted operating income (loss) to operating income (loss) as presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis for our U.S. dialysis reportable segment as well as for our U.S. IKC business, our U.S. other ancillary services, our international business, and for our total ancillary services which combines them and is disclosed as our other segments category, in addition to our corporate administrative support. These non-GAAP or “adjusted” measures are presented because management believes these measures are useful adjuncts to, but not alternatives for, our GAAP results. Note that the non-GAAP measures presented for prior periods below have been conformed to the method or calculation of non-GAAP measures presented for the current period.
32


Specifically, management uses adjusted operating income (loss) to compare and evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to establish operational budgets and forecasts and for incentive compensation purposes. We believe this non-GAAP measure is also useful to investors and analysts in evaluating our performance over time and relative to competitors, as well as in analyzing the underlying trends in our business. We also believe this presentation enhances a user's understanding of our normal operating income by excluding certain items which we do not believe are indicative of our ordinary results of operations.
In addition, our effective income tax rate on income attributable to DaVita Inc. excludingexcludes noncontrolling owners' income, which primarily relates to non-tax paying entities. We believe this adjusted effective income tax rate is useful to management, investors and analysts in evaluating our performance and establishing expectations for income taxes incurred on our ordinary results attributable to DaVita Inc.
In addition,Finally, our free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests and all capital expenditures (including development capital expenditures, routine maintenance and information technology), plus contributions from noncontrolling interests and proceeds from the sale of self-developed properties. Management uses this measure to assess our ability to fund acquisitions and meet our debt service obligations and we believe this measure is equally useful to investors and analysts as an adjunct to cash flows from operating activities and other measures under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).GAAP.
It is important to bear in mind that these non-GAAP “adjusted” measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, nor as substitutes for, their most comparable GAAP measures.

Off-balance sheet arrangements and aggregate contractual obligations
In addition to the debt obligations and operating lease liabilities reflected on our balance sheet, we have commitments associated with letters of credit, as well as certain working capital funding obligations associated with our equity investments in nonconsolidated dialysis ventures that we manage and some that we manage which are wholly-owned by third parties. For additional information see Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
We also have potential obligations to purchase the noncontrolling interests held by third parties in many of our majority-owned dialysis partnerships and other nonconsolidated entities. These obligations are in the form of put provisions that are exercisable at the third-party owners’ discretion within specified periods as outlined in each specific put provision. For additional information on these obligations and how we measure and report them, see Note 1211 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report and Notes 17 and 24 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 20212022 10-K.
For information on the maturities and other terms of our long term debt, see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we have outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of approximately $108$151 million under a bilateral secured letter of credit facility separate from our senior secured credit facilities.
In addition to the commitments listed above, in 2017 we entered into a sourcing and supply agreement with Amgen USA Inc. (Amgen) that expires on December 31, 2022. Under the terms of this agreement, we will purchase EPO from Amgen in amounts necessary to meet no less than 90% of our requirements for erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) through the expiration of the contract. The actual amount of EPO that we will purchase will depend upon the amount of EPO administered during dialysis as prescribed by physicians and the overall number of patients that we serve.
As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we have outstanding purchase agreements with various suppliers to purchase set amounts of dialysis equipment, parts, pharmaceuticals, and supplies. If we fail to meet the minimum purchase commitments under these contracts during any year, we are required to pay the difference to the supplier, as described further in Note 17 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 20212022 10-K.

In addition, we have approximately $43 million of existing income tax liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, penalties and other long-term tax liabilities. Income tax liabilities were reduced from $88 million as of December 31, 2021 to $43 million as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to a partial settlement reached with federal tax authorities for years 2014-2015.
Finally, on May 25, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Medtronic, Inc. and one of its subsidiaries (collectively, Medtronic) to form a new, independent kidney care-focused medical device company (NewCo)(Mozarc Medical). The transaction is expected to close in 2023, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. At close, DaVita will make a cash payment to Medtronic of approximately $75 million, subject to certain customary adjustments prior to the closing, and will contribute certain other non-cash assets to NewCo valued at approximately $25 million. Additionally, at close, each of DaVita and Medtronic will contribute approximately $200 million in cash to launch NewCo. DaVita also agreed to pay Medtronicclosed effective April 1, 2023. For additional consideration of up to $300 million if certain regulatory and commercial milestones are achieved between 2024 and 2028.information see Note 14.

The scheduled principal payments for all debt that bears a variable rate by its terms, including all of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan A, have been included on the variable rate line of the schedule of expected maturities above. Additionally, the principal amounts of Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan A have been included in the calculation of the average variable interest rate presented.
However, principal amounts of $2,624 million for Term Loan B-1 and $876 million of Term Loan A (the capped debt) are subject to LIBOR caps of 2.00% through June 30, 2024. As of March 31, 2023, applicable LIBOR rates were above this 2.00%, making the interest rates on this capped debt “economically fixed", unless or until applicable LIBOR rates were to fall back below 2.00% during the remaining term of the caps. As a result, as of March 31, 2023, total fixed and economically fixed debt was $8,089 million, with an average interest rate of 4.28%, while total variable rate debt not subject to caps was $612 million with an average rate of 7.74%.

OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
The information required by this Part II, Item 1 is incorporated herein by reference to the information set forth under the caption “Commitments and contingencies” in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In additionThere have been no material changes to the following risk factor and the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussedpreviously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (2021(2022 10-K) for the year ended December 31, 2021 and any subsequent filings2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which could materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or future results. TheCommission. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties discussed below,included in our 20212022 10-K, and in any subsequent filings with the SEC are not the only ones facing our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial condition and/or results of operations. The risk factor below updates, and should be read together with all the risk factors disclosedother information in Part I, Item 1A of our 2021 10-K. Please also readthis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the cautionary notice regarding forward-looking statements in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
If the number or percentage of patients with higher-paying commercial insurance declines, if the average rates that commercial payors pay us decline, if commercial plans subject patients to restriction in plan designs, or if we are unable to maintain contracts with payors with competitive terms, including, without limitation, reimbursement rates, scope and duration of coverage and in-network benefits, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
A substantial portion of our U.S. dialysis net patient services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was generated from patients who have commercial payors as their primary payor. The majority of these patients have insurance policies that pay us on terms and at rates that are generally significantly higher than Medicare rates. As such our revenue and net income levels are sensitive to the number of our patients with higher-paying commercial insurance coverage and the percentage of our patients under higher paying commercial plans relative to government-based programs. The payments we receive from commercial payors generate nearly all of our profit and all of our nonacute dialysis profits come from commercial payors.
When traditional or original Medicare ("Medicare") becomes the primary payor for a patient, the payment rate we receive for that patient decreases from the commercial plan rate to the lower Medicare payment rate. If the number of our patients who have Medicare or another government-based program as their primary payor increases, it could negatively impact the percentage of our patients covered under commercial insurance plans. There are a number of factors that could drive a decline in the number or percentage of our patients covered under commercial insurance plans, including, among others, a continued decline in the rate of growth of the ESRD patient population, improved mortality, changes in the patient's or a family member's employment status, reduced availability of commercial health plans or reduced coverage by such plans through the ACA exchanges or otherwise due to changes to the laws, marketplace, healthcare regulatory system or otherwise. Commercial payors could also cease paying in the primary position after providing 30 months of coverage resulting in potentially material reductions in payment as the patient moves to Medicare primary. Declining macroeconomic conditions could also negatively impact the percentage of our patients covered under commercial insurance plans. To the extent there are job losses in the U.S., we could experience a decrease in the number of patients covered under commercial plans and/or an increase in uninsured and underinsured patients independent of whether general economic conditions improve. If we experience higher numbers of uninsured or underinsured patients, it also would result in an increase in uncollectible accounts.
Our arrangements and negotiations with payors also impact the number or percentage of patients with higher-paying commercial insurance. We continuously are in the process of negotiating existing and potential new agreements with commercial payors who aggressively negotiate terms with us, and we can make no assurances about the ultimate results of these negotiations or the timing of any potential rate changes resulting from these negotiations. Sometimes many significant agreements are being renegotiated at the same time. We believe payor consolidations have significantly increased the negotiating leverage of commercial payors, and ongoing consolidations may continue to increase this leverage in the future. In addition, our agreements and rates with commercial payors may be impacted by new business activities of these commercial payors as well as steps that these commercial payors have taken and may continue to take to control the cost of and/or the eligibility for access to the services that we provide, including, without limitation, relative to products on and off the healthcare
39


exchanges. These efforts could impact the number of our patients who are eligible to enroll in commercial insurance plans, and remain on the plans, including plans offered through healthcare exchanges. We continue to experience downward pressure on some of our rates with commercial payors as a result of these and other general conditions in the market, including, among other things, as employers seek to shift to less expensive options for medical services or as commercial payors dedicate increased focus on dialysis services.
Our negotiations with commercial payors may relate to commercial fee-for-service contracts, value-based care (VBC) contracts in which we share risk with commercial payors, as well as contracts to provide dialysis services to Medicare Part C MA patients. If we fail to maintain contracts with payors and other healthcare providers with competitive or favorable terms, either with respect to commercial plans, commercial VBC contracts, MA plans or otherwise, including, without limitation, with respect to reimbursement rates, scope and duration of coverage and in-network benefits, contract term or termination rights, or if we fail to accurately estimate the price for and manage our medical costs in an effective manner, whether due to inflationary pressures or otherwise, such that the profitability of our commercial or other value-based products is negatively impacted, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The ultimate result of our negotiations with payors cannot be predicted as they occur in a highly competitive environment and are influenced by marketplace dynamics such as those previously discussed. Among other things, these negotiations may result in termination or non-renewals of existing agreements, decreases in contracted rates, and reduction in the number of our patients that are covered by commercial plans, and we may not be able to enter into new agreements on competitive terms or at all. In the event that our ongoing negotiations with commercial payors result in overall rates reductions in excess of overall rate increases, the cumulative effect could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, to the extent that these negotiations result in a reduction in the number of our patients covered by plans with commercial payors, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. A material portion of both our commercial revenue and MA revenue is concentrated with a limited number of commercial payors, and any changes impacting our highest paying commercial payors or our relationships with these payors will have a disproportionate impact on us.
Certain payors have been attempting to design and implement plans that restrict access to ESRD coverage both in the commercial and individual market. Among other things, these restrictive plan designs seek to limit the duration and/or the breadth of ESRD benefits, limit the number of in-network providers, set arbitrary provider reimbursement rates, or otherwise restrict access to care, all of which may result in a decrease in the number of patients covered by commercial insurance or the reimbursement rate for ESRD services, among other things. Payors have also disputed the scope and duration of ESRD benefit coverage under their plans, and, among other things, have required patients to seek Medicare coverage for ESRD treatments. On June 21, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision in the matter of Marietta Memorial Hospital Employee Health Benefit Plan, et al. v. DaVita Inc. et al., a case evaluating the scope of the Medicare Secondary Payor Act (MSPA), deciding that a group health plan that provides limited benefits for outpatient dialysis, but does so uniformly for all plan participants, does not violate the terms of the MSPA because the plan treats all patients uniformly, regardless of whether a participant has ESRD and regardless of whether the participant is eligible for Medicare. For additional information, see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report. We cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision at this time, as there is significant uncertainty as to, among other things, whether and to what extent payors may seek to design and implement plans to restrict access to ESRD in light of the decision; whether and how regulators and legislators will respond to the decision, including whether they will issue regulatory guidance or adopt new legislation; how courts will interpret other anti-discriminatory provisions that may apply; whether there could be other potential negative impacts of the decision and any resultant plan behavior on our commercial or government mix or the number of our patients covered by commercial insurance; and the timing of each of these items. Irrespective of any legislative or regulatory action in response to the decision, if more plans seek to implement plan designs that discourage or prevent ESRD patients from retaining their commercial coverage, it may lead to a decrease in the number of patients with commercial plans, the duration of benefits for patients under commercial plans and/or a decrease in the payment rates we receive, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In addition, some commercial payors are pursuing or have incorporated policies into their provider manuals limiting or refusing to accept charitable premium assistance from non-profit organizations, such as the American Kidney Fund, which may impact the number of patients who are able to afford commercial plans. Paying for coverage is a significant financial burden for many patients, and ESRD disproportionately affects the low-income population. Charitable premium assistance supports continuity of coverage and access to care for patients, many of whom are unable to continue working full-time as a result of their severe health condition. Many patients with commercial and government insurance also rely on financial assistance from charitable organizations, such as the American Kidney Fund. Certain payors have challenged our patients' and other providers' patients' ability to utilize assistance from charitable organizations for the payment of premiums, including, without limitation, through litigation and other legal proceedings. The use of charitable premium assistance for ESRD patients has also faced challenges and inquiries from legislators, regulators and other governmental authorities, and this may continue. In addition,
40


CMS or another regulatory agency or legislative authority may issue a new rule or guidance that challenges or restricts charitable premium assistance. If any of these challenges to kidney patients' use of premium assistance is successful or restrictions are imposed on the use of financial assistance from such charitable organizations or if organizations providing such assistance are no longer available such that kidney patients are unable to obtain, or continue to receive or receive for a limited duration, such financial assistance, it may restrict the ability of dialysis patients to obtain and maintain optimal insurance coverage and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, if our assumptions about how kidney patients will respond to any change in financial assistance from charitable organizations are incorrect, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our negotiations and relationships with payors may also be impacted by legislative or regulatory developments and associated legal rulings. For example, the final rules for the 21st Century Cures Act, which are described in detail in Part I, Item 1. Business of the 2021 10-K under the heading "Government Regulation—21st Century Cures Act,"broadened ESRD patient access to certain enhanced benefits offered by MA plans. While these rules increased our MA plan enrollment for ESRD benefits in their first year, the potential ultimate impact of this change in benefit eligibility remains subject to change as market participants continue to adjust to this new regulatory environment. As an example, the removal of objective time and distance standards relating to network adequacy for outpatient dialysis centers for MA plans that was included in the final rules may adversely impact the number of ESRD patients that select MA plans and also may result in the Company not being an in-network provider for significant MA plans in the event MA plans attempt to use this revision to the rules to limit or restrict their networks. If kidney patients choose not to enroll in MA plans or choose to leave MA plans, whether due to network adequacy standards or otherwise, or if we fail to provide education to kidney patients in the manner specified by CMS, we could be subject to certain clinical, operational, financial and legal risks, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, recent price transparency regulations require most group health plans and health insurance issuers in the group and individual markets to make certain pricing and patient responsibility information publicly available. For further detail on these regulations, see the discussion in Part I, Item 1. Business of the 2021 10-K under the heading "Government Regulation—Price Transparency Rules." On July 1, 2022, enforcement began of the requirement that plans publish machine readable files that include negotiated rates for all covered items and services with all providers and out-of-network allowed amounts. To comply with these requirements, plans have begun to publish these files and make them available to the public. The information that has been made available to date is highly diverse and complex. While the ultimate impact of these requirements remains uncertain, any changes by group health plans, health insurance issuers in the group and individual markets, or consumer choices resulting from these requirements could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition, and our reputation could be materially harmed. We could also experience a further decrease in the payments we receive for services if changes to the marketplace or the healthcare regulatory system result in fewer patients covered under commercial plans or an increase of patients covered under more restrictive commercial plans, or plans with lower reimbursement rates, among other things. For additional details regarding potential legislative or regulatory changes, the specific risks we face in connection with any decrease in payments we receive for services due to, for example, fewer patients being covered under commercial plans or an increase of patients covered under more restrictive commercial plans, or plans with lower reimbursement rates, please see Part I, Item 1. Business of the 2021 10-K under the heading "Government Regulation" and the discussion in the risk factor included in Part I, Item 1A. of the 2021 10-K under the heading "Changes in federal and state healthcare legislation or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows."
As noted, the foregoing dynamics of our arrangements and negotiations with commercial payors each may have an impact on, among other things, our ability to enter into and maintain contracts with payors with competitive terms, including, without limitation, reimbursement rates, scope and duration of coverage and in-network benefits as well as the number or percentage of our patients with higher-paying commercial insurance. If, as a result of these or other dynamics, we experience a decline in the average rates that commercial payors pay us or a reduction in the number of patients with ESRD coverage under higher-paying commercial plans either in total or relative to the number of patients under government-based programs that pay at lower rates or an increase in the number of patients that are uninsured or underinsured, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
