Biggest changeRisks that we deem material are described under “Risk Factors” below and include, but are not limited to, the following: Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Risks We are and in the future could become the subject of governmental investigations, regulatory actions, whistleblower lawsuits and other legal proceedings. We are and in the future may become involved in legal proceedings based on negligence or breach of a contractual or statutory duty from service users or their family members or from employees or former employees.

For example, it could: increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; make it more difficult for us to satisfy our other financial obligations; restrict us from making strategic acquisitions or cause us to make non-strategic divestitures; require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt (including scheduled repayments on our outstanding term loan borrowings under the Credit Facility), thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; expose us to interest rate fluctuations because the interest on the Credit Facility is imposed at variable rates; make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations to our lenders, resulting in possible defaults on and acceleration of such debt; limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; limit our ability to borrow additional funds; and limit our ability to pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions.

Operational Risks An incident involving one or more of our patients or the failure by one or more of our facilities to provide appropriate care could result in increased regulatory burdens, governmental investigations, litigation, negative publicity and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Joint ventures may use significant resources, may be unsuccessful and could expose us to unforeseen liabilities. Our business growth and acquisition strategies expose us to a variety of operational and financial risks. We care for a large number of vulnerable individuals with complex needs and any care quality deficiencies could adversely impact our brand, reputation and ability to market our services effectively. Our business could be disrupted if our information systems fail or if our databases are destroyed or damaged. A cybersecurity incident could have a material adverse impact on us, including substantial sanctions, fines, and damages and civil and criminal penalties under federal and state privacy laws, in addition to reputational harm and increased costs. Although we have facilities in 39 states and Puerto Rico, we have substantial operations in Pennsylvania, California and Tennessee, which makes us especially sensitive to regulatory, economic, environmental and competitive conditions and changes in those states. Our business and operations are subject to risks related to natural disasters and climate change. If we fail to cultivate new or maintain established relationships with referral sources, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. We operate in a highly competitive industry, and competition may lead to declines in patient volumes.

Our ability to generate sufficient cash to service our debt depends on many factors beyond our control. We are subject to a number of restrictive covenants, which may restrict our business and financing activities.

If we default on our obligations to pay our debt, we may not be able to make payments on our financing arrangements. 11 We are subject to volatility in the global capital and credit markets as well as significant developments in macroeconomic and political conditions that are out of our control. Increased inflationary pressure and rising interest rates may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. The industry trend on value-based purchasing may negatively impact our revenue. The trend by insurance companies and managed care organizations to enter into sole-source contracts may limit our ability to obtain patients.

Upon operational commencement of a de novo or joint venture facility, we typically expect that it will take 10 to 12 months, on average, to reach break-even results.
Added
General Risk Factors • Our stock price has been, and may continue to be, volatile.
Added
In addition, our commercial insurance coverage for the period commencing in September 2025 contains less favorable terms than previous years, including coverage exclusions for incidents involving sexual molestation or abuse, higher premiums and potentially lower aggregate limitations.
Added
Activist investors and their actions threatened or commenced against us could cause us to incur substantial costs, divert management’s attention and resources, cause uncertainty about the strategic direction of our business and adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.
Added
Activist investors have sought and may from time to time seek to effect changes and assert influence on our board of directors and management, including by threatening or commencing a proxy contest or “vote no” campaign, engaging in proxy solicitations or advancing stockholder proposals.
Added
These actions could have a material adverse effect on us for the following reasons: • Activist investors may attempt to effect changes in how we are governed and our strategic direction, or to acquire control over the Company.
Added
In particular, activist investors may suggest changes to our strategy, operations, board of directors and management that conflict with our strategic direction and could cause uncertainty amongst employees, patients and our investors about the strategic direction of our business. • Responding to these actions is costly and time-consuming, and could disrupt our operations and divert the attention of our board of directors, management and employees away from their regular duties and the pursuit of business strategies.
Added
In addition, we may choose to initiate, or may become subject to, litigation as a result of a proxy contest or matters arising from a proxy contest or other activist investor actions, which may serve as a distraction to our board of directors, management and employees and could require us to incur significant additional costs. • Any perceived uncertainties as to our future direction as a result of potential changes to management or the composition of the board of directors may lead to the perception of a change in the direction of the business, instability or lack of continuity, which may be exploited by our competitors, may cause concern to our current or potential patients and employees, may result in the loss of potential business opportunities and may make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel and business partners. • Such actions could cause significant fluctuations in our stock price based on temporary or speculative market perceptions or other factors that do not necessarily reflect the underlying fundamentals and prospects of our business.
Added
A recent example of legislative changes impacting government program funding is the OBBBA, passed by Congress on July 4, 2025, which contains provisions that may impact our financial performance. The OBBBA includes provisions that have varying effective dates, and we cannot predict how future legislation, rulemaking, or judicial action will impact its implementation.
Added
The OBBBA reduces federal Medicaid expenditures and tightens beneficiary eligibility requirements, including imposing work requirements for adults in Medicaid expansion states and requiring states to conduct eligibility redeterminations at least every six months by December 31, 2026.
Added
These changes increase the likelihood of patients losing coverage mid-year, which may disrupt treatment continuity, complicate coverage verification, and result in higher levels of uncompensated care and uncollected patient balances.
Added
Pursuant to the OBBBA, the HHS has also revised regulations governing state directed payment programs to cap total payment rates for certain services at Medicare payment rates and implemented policy changes that have decreased enrollment in ACA marketplace plans, including ending automatic renewals by requiring pre-enrollment verification requirements.
Added
In addition to the federal healthcare program changes under the OBBBA, the enhanced premium tax credits, originally enacted under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, expired on December 31, 2025. Consequently, marketplace premiums have increased substantially, and enrollment for the 2026 plan year declined significantly.
