FINANCIAL RESULTS AND UPDATE

February 9, 2015

Exhibit 99.3

Forward-looking statements and Non-GAAP financial measures

PREMIER, INC.

Forward-looking statements—Certain statements included in this presentation,

including, but not limited to, those related to our financial and business outlook, strategy and

growth drivers, member retention rates and revenue visibility, cross and upsell opportunities,

acquisition activities and pipeline, revenue available under contract, and 2015 financial guidance

and related assumptions, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal

securities laws. Forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks,

uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results of Premier to be materially

different from historical results or from any future results or projections expressed or implied by

such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on any

forward looking statements. Readers are urged to consider statements in the conditional or

future tenses or that include terms such as “believes,” “belief,” “expects,” “estimates,” “intends

“anticipates” or “plans” to be uncertain and forward-looking. Forward-looking statements may

include comments as to Premier’s beliefs and expectations as to future events and trends

affecting its business and are necessarily subject to uncertainties, many of which are outside

Premier’s control. More information on potential risks and other factors that could affect

Premier’s financial results is included, and updated, from time to time, in Premier’s periodic and

current filings with the SEC, including Premier’s most recent Form 10-K for the year ended June

30, 2014. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Premier

undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP financial measures—This presentation includes certain “non-GAAP

financial measures” as defined in Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Schedules are attached that reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures included in this

presentation to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in

accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States. Our Form 10-Q

for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, to be filed shortly hereafter, provides further

explanation and disclosure regarding our use of non-GAAP financial measures and should be

read in conjunction with this presentation.

Guidance is based on comparisons with prior-year non-GAAP pro forma results, which have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the company’s

reorganization and IPO. The Company does not reconcile guidance for adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income per-share to net

income (loss) or GAAP earnings per share because the Company does not provide guidance for reconciling items between net income (loss) and adjusted

EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items since certain items

that impact net income (loss) are outside of the Company’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation to net income (loss) or GAAP

earnings per share is not available without unreasonable effort.
