CHARLOTTE, NC, Feb. 5, 2018 – Premier Inc. (NASDAQ: PINC) today reported financial results for the fiscal 2018 second quarter ended Dec. 31, 2017.

| • | | Net revenue increased 15% to $411.4 million from the same period last year; Supply Chain Services segment revenue rose 19% and Performance Services segment revenue increased 1% from the same period last year. |
| • | | Due almost entirely to aone-time remeasurement of deferred taxes resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which increased income tax expense to $231.5 million from $37.4 million a year ago, net income declined 92% to $19.8 million from the same period a year ago. Diluted net loss per share totaled $1.66 per share, compared with diluted net income of $1.50 per share in the prior year. |
| • | | Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA* of $133.5 million increased 9% from the same period last year. |
| • | | Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income* increased 7% to $70.0 million, representingnon-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share* of $0.50, an increase of 9% over $0.46 per share from a year ago. |
| • | | The guidance range for fiscal 2018non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is raised to $2.24 - $2.37 per share to reflect the expected increase from tax reform and the company’s stock repurchase program. |
* | Descriptions ofnon-GAAP financial measures are provided in “Use and Definition ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures,” and reconciliations are provided in the tables at the end of this release. |
“Premier delivered a successful fiscal 2018 second quarter,” said Susan DeVore, president and chief executive officer. “We met or exceeded management expectations for the overall business as well as for the segments. On a consolidated basis, year-over-year net revenue increased 15% andnon-GAAP adjusted EBITDA rose 9%. Supply Chain Services segment revenue increased 19% from a year ago, with legacy group purchasing delivering 5% growth in net administrative fees revenue. The products business produced double-digit revenue growth across both the integrated pharmacy and direct sourcing businesses. We continue to expect revenue growth in the Performance Services segment to increase sequentially in the second half of the fiscal year, specifically driven by expected sales of ambulatory quality solutions linked to regulatory reporting that will occur in the third quarter, and as we recognize revenue from performance-based advisory services engagements.
“We are continually looking for ways to improve the efficiency of our businesses and deliver value to our stockholders,” DeVore continued. “During the quarter, we announced and launched a $200 million

stock repurchase program. We expect this program, combined with the anticipated benefits from federal tax reform, to meaningfully impact full-yearnon-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share, and we are increasing this guidance range accordingly. We are affirming our other guidance ranges, based on theyear-to-date performance and our outlook for the remainder of fiscal 2018.
“To further optimize efficiencies, realize ongoing integration synergies, and realign resources for future growth areas, management is implementing certain personnel adjustments, including a modest reduction in force, that we expect to producepre-tax cost savings approximating $13 million to $14 million on an annualrun-rate basis,” DeVore continued.
“Looking forward, we believe Premier’s integrated supply chain, technology and analytics capabilities and wrap-around advisory services continue to uniquely differentiate our healthcare performance improvement company as we partner with providers and suppliers to manage total costs, improve quality and safety and navigate the continuing evolution to value-based care,” DeVore said. “We further believe that our comprehensive approach and multiple business drivers enable Premier to achieve successful growth through changing marketplace conditions, as we continue to deliver a compelling value proposition to our members and seek to build long-term value for our stockholders.”

Page 3 of 15
For the fiscal second-quarter ended Dec. 31, 2017, Premier generated net revenue of $411.4 million, an increase of 15%, from net revenue of $358.5 million for the same period a year ago.
Due almost entirely to aone-time remeasurement of deferred taxes resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, net income for the fiscal second-quarter was $19.8 million, compared with $246.2 million for the same period a year ago. In accordance with GAAP, fiscal 2018 and 2017 second-quarter net income attributable to stockholders includednon-cash adjustments of $317.9 million and $335.3 million, respectively, to reflect the change in the redemption value of limited partners’ Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. Thesenon-cash adjustments result primarily from changes in the number of Class B common shares outstanding and the company’s stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company’s business operations. After thesenon-cash adjustments, the company reported net income attributable to stockholders of $281.2 million, compared with $400.3 million for the same period a year ago. Second-quarter net loss per diluted share, which is based on net income adjusted in accordance with GAAP for the tax expense related to Premier Inc. retaining the portion of net income attributable to income fromnon-controlling interest in Premier LP, was $1.66 compared with diluted net income of $1.50 per share for the same period a year ago. Second-quarter net loss per share was also negatively impacted by the same factors that impacted net income.See “Calculation of GAAP Earnings per Share” in the income statement section of this press release.
Fiscal second-quarternon-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $133.5 million increased 9% from $122.0 million for the same period the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA growth was primarily driven by growth in net administrative fees revenue, including contributions related to the Innovatix and Essensa acquisition, net of the reduction in equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates due to acquiring the remaining 50% of Innovatix, along with an increase in product revenue. These results were partially offset by increased cost of products and selling, general and administrative expenses resulting from higher salaries and benefits expenses as a result of acquisitions and to support growth.
Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income for the fiscal second-quarter increased 7% to $70.0 million from $65.2 million for the same period a year ago. Adjusted fully distributed earnings per share increased to $0.50 from $0.46 for the same period a year ago. Adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is anon-GAAP financial measure that represents net income, adjusted fornon-recurring andnon-cash items, attributable to all stockholders as if all Class B stockholders exchanged their Class B common units and associated Class B common shares for Class A common shares.
Segment Results
Supply Chain Services
For the fiscal second-quarter ended Dec. 31, 2017, the Supply Chain Services segment generated net revenue of $324.9 million, an increase of 19% from $272.7 million a year ago. The revenue increase was driven by growth in the company’s group purchasing organization (GPO) and products businesses. GPO net administrative fees revenue of $159.3 million increased $30.3 million, or 23%, from a year ago, primarily driven by contributions from the Innovatix and Essensa businesses, which were acquired in December 2016. Legacy year-over-year net administrative fee revenue growth in the second quarter was 5%, resulting from a supplier revenue recovery settlement and contract penetration of existing members. Product revenues of $162.1 million increased 14% from $142.4 million a year ago, attributable to double-digit growth from both the integrated pharmacy and direct sourcing businesses.

Supply Chain Services segment adjusted EBITDA of $132.0 million for the fiscal 2018 second-quarter increased 11% from $119.0 million for the same period a year ago. The increase largely reflects growth in net administrative fees revenue. Growth was partially offset by incremental salaries and benefits associated with the prior-year acquisition of Innovatix and Essensa. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA from the prior year included a $5.6 million non-cash adjustment for cash collections not recognized as revenue on a GAAP basis due to a purchase accounting adjustment, and included $4.1 million in equity in net income of Innovatix, as it was historically accounted for as an unconsolidated affiliate through the date of acquisition.
Performance Services
For the fiscal second-quarter ended Dec. 31, 2017, the Performance Services segment generated net revenue of $86.5 million, a 1% increase from $85.9 million for the same quarter last year, primarily due to growth in the company’s informatics and technology services business primarily related to cost management solutions as well as growth in ambulatory quality solutions.
Performance Services segment adjusted EBITDA of $27.9 million for the fiscal 2018 second-quarter decreased 2% from $28.6 million for the same quarter last year. Growth was impacted by an increase in cost of sales, primarily related to an increase in staffing and costs to support growth and performance-based engagements and was impacted on a comparable basis due to higher revenue recognition from performance-based engagements in the prior year.
Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended Dec. 31, 2017
For the six months ended Dec. 31, 2017, Premier generated net revenue of $802.0 million, a 19% increase from net revenue of $671.8 million for the same period a year ago.
Due almost entirely to aone-time remeasurement of deferred taxes resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, net income for thesix-month period totaled $80.4 million, compared with $304.3 million for the same period a year ago. Fiscal 2018 and 2017six-month net income attributable to stockholders requirednon-cash adjustments of $638.3 million and $397.1 million, respectively, to reflect changes in redemption value of the limited partners Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. Thesenon-cash adjustments result primarily from changes in the number of Class B common shares outstanding and the company’s stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company’s business operations. After thesenon-cash adjustments, the company reported net income attributable to stockholders of $617.6 million, compared with $470.6 million a year ago. On a dilutedper-share basis, which is based on net income adjusted in accordance with GAAP for the tax expense related to Premier Inc. retaining the portion of net income attributable to income fromnon-controlling interest in Premier LP, the net loss was $1.30 compared with diluted net income of $1.75 for the same period a year ago. Net loss per share for the six months ended Dec. 31, 2017 was also negatively impacted by the same factors that impacted net income.See “Calculation of GAAP Earnings per Share” in the income statement section of this press release.
For the six months ended Dec. 31, 2017,non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $252.7 million increased 9% from $232.8 million for the same period last year.Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income for the six months rose 6% to $131.7 million from $124.2 million for the same period a year ago, while non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share increased to $0.94 from $0.87.

Supply Chain Services segment net revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2018 increased 25% to $630.7 million from $506.4 million a year earlier. Supply Chain Services segment adjusted EBITDA increased 9% to $257.7 million from $236.3 million for the prior year.
Performance Services segment net revenue for the six months of fiscal 2018 increased 4% to $171.3 million from $165.4 million a year earlier. Segment adjusted EBITDA decreased 3% to $49.2 million from $50.9 million.
Cash Flows and Liquidity
Cash provided by operating activities was $206.5 million for thesix-month period ended Dec. 31, 2017, compared with $138.4 million for the same period last year. The increase in cash flow from operations was primarily driven by an increase in net administrative fees as well as decreased outflows related to working capital needs. At Dec. 31, 2017, the company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $163.0 million, compared with $156.7 million at June 30, 2017. At Dec. 31, 2017, the company had an outstanding balance of $200.0 million on its five-year, $750 million revolving credit facility.
Through Dec. 31, 2017, the company repurchased approximately 2.6 million shares of Class A common stock for $74.7 million, using the trading date (approximately 2.5 million shares for $71.0 million using the settlement date). The repurchases took place under the company’s ongoing $200.0 million stock repurchase program announced Oct. 31, 2017, which authorizes shares to be repurchased through June 30, 2018. Assuming full completion of the program by the end of the fiscal year, the company expects fiscal 2018non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share to be positively impacted by approximately $0.03 to $0.05 per share.
Non-GAAP free cash flow for thesix-month period ended December 31, 2017 was $122.2 million, compared with $59.4 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in free cash flow results from the same factors driving the growth in cash flow from operations.(See free cash flow definition in “Use and Definition ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures,” and reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities is provided in the tables section of this press release).
Fiscal 2018 Outlook and Guidance
Based on results for the six months ended Dec. 31, 2017, management’s current expectations for the remainder of fiscal 2018 and the realization of previously disclosed underlying assumptions, the company reaffirms its full fiscal-year 2018 guidance range for consolidated net revenue, Supply Chain Services and Performance Services segment revenue, andnon-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Within Supply Chain Services, products revenue is expected to grow 14% to 18% for the full fiscal year, compared with the previous assumption of 9% to 13%. The guidance range fornon-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is being increased to reflect expectations of the beneficial impacts of the federal corporate income tax reform and the full implementation of the company’s previously announced $200 million stock repurchase program. Tax reform is expected to positively impact fiscal 2018non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed EPS by approximately $0.23, while the share repurchase is expected to add $0.03 to $0.05. As a result, the guidance range for fiscal 2018non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is being increased to $2.24 - $2.37.

(1) | The company does not meaningfully reconcile guidance fornon-GAAP adjusted EBITDA andnon-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share to net income attributable to stockholders or earnings per share attributable to stockholders because the company cannot provide guidance for more significant reconciling items between net income attributable to stockholders and adjusted EBITDA and between earnings per share attributable to stockholders andnon-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share without unreasonable effort. This is due to two primary reasons: |
| • | | Reasonable guidance cannot be provided for reconciling the adjustment of redeemable limited partners’ capital to redemption amount – historically the largest adjustment in the reconciliation fromnon-GAAP to GAAP amounts – due to the fact that the increase or decrease in this item is based on the change in the number of shares of Class B stock outstanding and change in stock price between quarters, which the company cannot predict, control or reasonably estimate. |
| • | | Reasonable guidance cannot be provided for earnings per share attributable to stockholders because the ongoing quarterly member-owner exchange of Class B common stock and corresponding Class B units into shares of Class A common stock impacts the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding each quarter, which the company cannot predict, control or reasonably estimate. Member owners have the right, but not the obligation, to exchange shares on a quarterly basis, and the company has the discretion to settle any exchanged shares for Class A common stock, cash, or a combination thereof, neither of which can be predicted, controlled or reasonably estimated at this time. |
Realignment of Resources
As part of the company’s ongoing integration synergies and efforts to realign resources for future growth areas, management is implementing certain personnel adjustments, including a modest workforce reduction, that are expected to producepre-tax cost savings approximating $13.0 million to $14.0 million on an annualrun-rate basis.Pre-tax cash restructuring charges of approximately $5.2 million related to the workforce reduction, which is expected to be substantially completed in February 2018, will be expensed in the current quarter ending March 31, 2018. These personnel adjustments impact approximately 75 positions, or 3% of total employees.

Use and Definition ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures
Premier uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA, adjusted fully distributed net income, adjusted fully distributed earnings per share, and free cash flow to facilitate a comparison of the company’s operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide measures that, when viewed in combination with its results prepared in accordance with GAAP, allow for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company’s business than GAAP measures alone. The company believes adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA assist its board of directors, management and investors in comparing the company’s operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period by removing the impact of the company’s asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of management (taxes), as well as othernon-cash (impairment of intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments) andnon-recurring items, from operating results.Non-recurring items are income or expenses or other items that have not been earned or incurred within the prior two years and are not expected to recur within the next two years. Such items include certain strategic and financial restructuring expenses.
In addition, adjusted fully distributed net income and adjusted fully distributed earnings per share eliminate the variability ofnon-controlling interest as a result of member owner exchanges of Class B common stock and corresponding Class B units into shares of Class A common stock (which exchanges are a member owner’s cumulative right, but not obligation, which began on October 31, 2014, and occur each quarter thereafter, and are limited toone-seventh of the member owner’s initial allocation of Class B common units per year) and other potentially dilutive equity transactions which are outside of management’s control. Adjusted fully distributed net income is defined as net income attributable to Premier (i) excluding income tax expense, (ii) excluding the impact of adjustment of redeemable limited partners’ capital to redemption amount, (iii) excluding the effect ofnon-recurring andnon-cash items, (iv) assuming the exchange of all the Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock, which results in the elimination ofnon-controlling interest in Premier LP, and (v) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense onnon-GAAP fully distributed net income before income taxes at the company’s estimated effective income tax rate. We define adjusted fully distributed earnings per share as adjusted fully distributed net income divided by diluted weighted average shares. These measures assist our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income and earnings per share on a consistent basis from period to period because these measures removenon-cash andnon-recurring items, and eliminate the variability ofnon-controlling interest that results from member owner exchanges of Class B common units into shares of Class A common stock.

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest and investment income, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization of purchased intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before merger and acquisition related expenses andnon-recurring,non-cash ornon-operating items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates.Non-recurring items include certain strategic and financial restructuring expenses.Non-operating items include gain or loss on the disposal of assets. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as the segment’s net revenue less cost of revenue and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment, excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of purchased intangible assets, merger and acquisition related expenses andnon-recurring ornon-cash items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates. Operating expenses directly attributable to the segment include expenses associated with sales and marketing, general and administrative and product development activities specific to the operation of each segment. General and administrative corporate expenses that are not specific to a particular segment are not included in the calculation of segment adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure used by the company and by external users of the company’s financial statements.
Management considers adjusted EBITDA an indicator of the operational strength and performance of the company’s business. Adjusted EBITDA allows management to assess performance without regard to financing methods and capital structure and without the impact of other matters that management does not consider indicative of the operating performance of the business. Segment adjusted EBITDA is the primary earnings measure used by management to evaluate the performance of the company’s business segments.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less distributions and tax receivable agreement payments to limited partners and purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayments. Management believes free cash flow is an important measure because it represents the cash that the company generates after payment of tax distributions to limited partners and capital investment to maintain existing products and services and ongoing business operations, as well as development of new and upgraded products and services to support future growth. Free cash flow is important because it allows the company to enhance stockholder value through acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, investments in related or complimentary businesses and/or debt reduction.
