For the definitions of non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc. and adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc., further adjusted to exclude amortization, see the note titled “Note on non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Financial and operating highlights include:
Cash flow: For the rolling twelve months ended March 31, 2017, operating cash flow was $2.400 billion and free cash flow was $1.841 billion. For the quarter ended March 31, 2017, operating cash flow was $865 million and free cash flow was $734 million.
Operating income and adjusted operating income: Operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $888 million, and adjusted operating income for the quarter was $392 million.
Operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $365 million, and adjusted operating income for the quarter was $458 million.
Volume: Total U.S. dialysis treatments for the first quarter of 2017 were 6,804,384, or 88,369 treatments per day, representing a per day increase of 3.7% over the first quarter of 2016. Normalized non-acquired treatment growth in the first quarter of 2017 as compared to the first quarter of 2016 was 3.8%.
The number of member months for which DMG provided care during the first quarter of 2017 was approximately 2.2 million, of which approximately 0.9 million, 1.0 million and 0.3 million related to senior, commercial and Medicaid members, respectively. 
Goodwill and asset impairment charges: During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we recognized an additional goodwill impairment charge related to our vascular access business of $24 million, of which $7 million was attributed to noncontrolling interests. This additional charge resulted primarily from changes in our expectations as our partners and

1



operators evaluate reimbursement model alternatives as a result of recent changes in the Medicare reimbursement structure for these services.
We also recognized an asset impairment charge of $15 million related to the restructuring of our pharmacy business.
Gain on Changes in Ownership Interests: During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we recorded a $6 million adjustment to true up the non-cash gain related to the formation of the Asia Pacific Joint Venture (APAC JV).
Settlement: In the first quarter of 2017, we received a payment of $538 million related to the settlement with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Our consolidated entities recognized a net gain of $527 million on this settlement, of which $24 million was attributable to noncontrolling interests. Our nonconsolidated and managed entities recognized a gain of $9 million, of which our equity investment share was $3 million. The net effect was a net increase of $530 million to DaVita’s operating income, which was subject to income taxes of $197 million.
Effective tax rate: Our effective tax rate was 36.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. The effective tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. was 39.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
Our effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was impacted by an adjustment to true-up the gain on the formation of the APAC JV ownership changes and the amount of third-party owners’ income attributable to non-tax paying entities. 
The adjusted effective tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, excluding these items was 40.0%.
Center activity: As of March 31, 2017, we provided dialysis services to a total of approximately 205,900 patients at 2,544 outpatient dialysis centers, of which 2,382 centers were located in the United States and 162 centers were located in 11 countries outside of the United States. During the first quarter of 2017, we opened a total of 24 new dialysis centers and acquired 12 dialysis centers in the United States. We also opened five new dialysis centers and acquired three dialysis centers outside of the United States.
Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As used in this press release the term “adjusted” refers to non-GAAP measures as follows, each as reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure in the non-GAAP reconciliations in the notes to this press release: (i) for income measures, the term “adjusted” refers to operating performance measures that exclude certain items such as impairment charges, gains (losses) on ownership changes, and gains and charges associated with settlements; (ii) the term “adjusted net income excluding amortization” represents the Company’s net income excluding certain items as well as amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions; and (iii) the term “adjusted effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc.” represents the Company’s effective tax rate excluding certain non-GAAP items and noncontrolling owners’ income that primarily relates to non-tax paying entities. 
These non-GAAP or “adjusted” measures are presented because management believes these measures are useful adjuncts to GAAP results. Non-GAAP or “adjusted” measures should not be considered as an alternative to the corresponding measures determined under GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures 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 that these non-GAAP measures are 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. 
The Company’s adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc., adjusted diluted net income per share, adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc. excluding amortization, adjusted diluted net income per share excluding amortization, adjusted operating income, adjusted effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc., and free cash flow discussed in this press release are reconciled to their most comparable GAAP measures at Notes 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Outlook
The following forward-looking measures and the underlying assumptions involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those described below, and actual results may vary significantly from these current forward-looking measures. We do not provide guidance for consolidated operating income, Kidney Care operating income or effective tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. on a GAAP basis nor a reconciliation of those forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These non-GAAP financial measures do not include certain items, including the gain related to the VA settlement, goodwill and asset impairment charges, and the gain on the APAC JV ownership changes.
We still expect our adjusted consolidated operating income guidance for 2017 to be in the range of $1.635 billion to $1.775 billion.
We still expect our adjusted operating income guidance for Kidney Care for 2017 to be in the range of $1.525 billion to $1.625 billion.
We still expect our operating income guidance for DMG for 2017 to be in the range of $110 million to $150 million.
We still expect our consolidated operating cash flow for 2017 to be in the range of $1.750 billion to $1.950 billion, which includes the net benefit of the VA settlement.
We still expect our 2017 adjusted effective tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. to be approximately 39.5% to 40.5%.
We will be holding a conference call to discuss our results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 on May 2, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. To join the conference call, please dial (877) 918-6630 from the U.S. or (517) 308-9087 from outside the U.S. A replay of the conference call will be available on our website at investors.davita.com, for the following 30 days.

This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including without limitation statements related to our guidance and expectations for our 2017 consolidated operating income, our 2017 Kidney Care operating income, DMG’s 2017 operating income, our 2017 consolidated operating cash flows and our 2017 effective tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. Factors that could impact future results include the uncertainties associated with the risk factors set forth in our SEC filings, including our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, our subsequent quarterly and annual reports, and our current reports on Form 8-K. The forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these risks and uncertainties.
These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those risk factors in our SEC filings relating to:
the concentration of profits generated by higher-paying commercial payor plans for which there is continued downward pressure on average realized payment rates, and a reduction in the number of patients under such plans, which may result in the loss of revenues or patients, and the extent to which the ongoing implementation of healthcare exchanges or changes in regulations or enforcement of regulations, including among other things those regarding the exchanges, results in a reduction in reimbursement rates for our services from and/or the number of patients enrolled in higher-paying commercial plans,
a reduction in government payment rates under the Medicare End Stage Renal Disease program or other government-based programs,
the impact of the Medicare Advantage benchmark structure,
risks arising from potential federal and/or state legislation or regulation that could have an adverse effect on our operations and profitability,
the impact of the 2016 Congressional and Presidential elections on the current health care marketplace and on our business, including with respect to the future of the Affordable Care Act, the exchanges and many other core aspects of the current health care marketplace,
changes in pharmaceutical or anemia management practice patterns, payment policies, or pharmaceutical pricing,
legal compliance risks, including our continued compliance with complex government regulations and the provisions of our current corporate integrity agreement and current or potential investigations by various government entities and related government or private-party proceedings, and restrictions on our business and operations required by our corporate integrity agreement and other settlement terms, and the financial impact thereof,
continued increased competition from large- and medium-sized dialysis providers that compete directly with us,
our ability to maintain contracts with physician medical directors, changing affiliation models for physicians, and the emergence of new models of care introduced by the government or private sector, that may erode our patient base and reimbursement rates, such as accountable care organizations, independent practice associations and integrated delivery systems,
our ability to complete acquisitions, mergers or dispositions that we might be considering or announce, or to integrate and successfully operate any business we may acquire or have acquired, including DMG, or to expand our operations and services to markets outside the United States, or to businesses outside of dialysis and DMG’s business,
the variability of our cash flows,
the risk that we might invest material amounts of capital and incur significant costs in connection with the growth and development of our international operations, yet we might not be able to operate them profitably anytime soon, if at all,
risks arising from the use of accounting estimates, judgments and interpretations in our financial statements,
the risk that laws regulating the corporate practice of medicine could restrict the manner in which DMG conducts its business,
the risk that the cost of providing services under DMG’s agreements may exceed our compensation,
the risk that reductions in reimbursement rates, including Medicare Advantage rates, and future regulations may negatively impact DMG’s business, revenue and profitability,
the risk that DMG may not be able to successfully establish a presence in new geographic regions or successfully address competitive threats that could reduce its profitability,
the risk that a disruption in DMG’s healthcare provider networks could have an adverse effect on DMG’s business operations and profitability,

4



the risk that reductions in the quality ratings of health maintenance organization plan customers of DMG could have an adverse effect on DMG’s business, or
the risk that health plans that acquire health maintenance organizations may not be willing to contract with DMG or may be willing to contract only on less favorable terms.
We base our forward-looking statements on information currently available to us at the time of this release, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying factors, new information, future events or otherwise.

Consolidated percentages of revenues are comprised of the dialysis and related lab services business, DMG’s business and other ancillary services and strategic initiatives.

The Term Loan B is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. At March 31, 2017, the actual LIBOR-based variable component of our interest rate exceeded 0.75% on the Term Loan B, and was subject to LIBOR-based interest rate volatility on the LIBOR variable component of our interest rate on all of the Term Loan B. However, we are limited to a maximum rate of 3.50% on the outstanding principal debt on the Term Loan B as a result of interest rate cap agreements. Actual LIBOR, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was lower than the embedded LIBOR floor during such period and the interest rate on the Term Loan B was set at its floor during such period. The Term Loan A bears interest at LIBOR plus an interest margin of 2.00%. We are limited to a maximum rate of 3.50% on $96.3 million of the

Note 1: Calculation of the Leverage Ratio

Under the senior secured credit facilities (Credit Agreement), the leverage ratio is defined as all funded debt plus the face amount of all letters of credit issued, minus cash and cash equivalents, including short-term investments, divided by “Consolidated EBITDA”. The leverage ratio determines the interest rate margin payable by the Company for its Term Loan A and revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement by establishing the margin over the base interest rate (LIBOR) that is applicable. The following leverage ratio was calculated using “Consolidated EBITDA” as defined in the Credit Agreement. The calculation below is based on the last twelve months of “Consolidated EBITDA”, pro forma for routine acquisitions that occurred during the period. The Company’s management believes the presentation of “Consolidated EBITDA” is useful to users to enhance their understanding of the Company’s leverage ratio under its Credit Agreement. The leverage ratio calculated by the Company is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a substitute for debt to net income attributable to DaVita Inc., net income attributable to DaVita Inc. or total debt as determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company’s calculation of its leverage ratio might not be calculated in the same manner as, and thus might not be comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies.

In addition, we have excluded amortization of intangible assets associated with acquisitions from our adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc., net of tax, and from our adjusted diluted net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc. as we believe this presentation enhances a user’s understanding of our operating results for these periods by providing a different reflection of the Company’s operating performance since it excludes the amortization of intangible assets that relate to the fair value measurement of acquired intangible assets associated with our acquisitions, and accordingly is indicative of consistent adjusted net income excluding amortization of acquired intangibles, attributable to DaVita Inc. and diluted net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc.

Note 3:    Adjusted operating income.

Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income before certain items we do not believe are indicative of ordinary results, including a net settlement gain, a gain on the APAC JV ownership changes, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, an adjustment to reduce a receivable associated with the DMG acquisition escrow provision relating to an income tax item, and estimated accruals for certain legal matters.

We use adjusted operating income as a measure to assess operating and financial performance. We believe that this measure enhances a user’s understanding of the normal operating income and of our consolidated enterprise and of our individual reportable segments.

Adjusted operating income is not a measure of financial performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operations, or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. In addition, the calculation of adjusted operating income is susceptible to varying interpretations and calculations, and the amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted operating income may not be indicative of historical operating results, and we do not intend these calculations to be predictive of future results of operations or cash flows.

Note 4:    Effective income tax rates and adjusted effective income tax rates.

We believe that reporting the effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. as well as the adjusted effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc., excluding a net settlement gain, a gain on the APAC JV ownership changes, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, an adjustment to reduce a receivable associated with the DMG acquisition escrow provision relating to an income tax item, and estimated accruals for certain legal matters, net of tax, enhances a user’s understanding of DaVita Inc.’s effective income tax rate and DaVita Inc.’s adjusted effective income tax rate for the periods presented because it excludes noncontrolling owners’ income that primarily relates to non-tax paying entities and certain non-deductible charges which we do not believe are indicative of our ordinary results, and, therefore, these adjusted measures are meaningful to a user to fully understand the related income tax effects on DaVita Inc.’s operating results. These are not measures under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the effective income tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Effective income tax rate as compared to the effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. is as follows:

Note 5:    Free cash flow.

Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests and capital expenditures for routine maintenance and information technology. We believe free cash flow is a useful adjunct to cash flow from operating activities and other measurements under GAAP, since free cash flow is a meaningful measure of our ability to fund acquisitions and development activities and meet our debt service requirements. In addition, free cash flow excluding distributions to noncontrolling interests provides a user with an understanding of free cash flows that are attributable to DaVita Inc. Free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity.

Note 6:    Total care dollars under management.

In California, as a result of our managed care administrative services agreements with hospitals and health plans, DMG does not assume the direct financial risk for institutional (hospital) services in most cases, but is responsible for managing the care dollars associated with both the professional (physician) and institutional services being provided for the Per Member Per Month (PMPM) fee attributable to both professional and institutional services. In cases where DMG does not assume the direct financial risk, DMG recognizes the surplus of institutional revenue less institutional expense as DMG net revenue recorded as capitated revenues. In addition to revenues recognized for financial reporting purposes, DMG measures its total care dollars under management, which includes the PMPM fee payable to third parties for institutional services where DMG manages the care provided to its members by the hospitals and other institutions, which are not included in GAAP revenues. DMG uses total care dollars under management as a supplement to GAAP revenues as it allows DMG to measure profit margins on a comparable basis across both the global capitation model (where DMG assumes the full financial risk for all services, including institutional services) and the risk sharing models (where DMG operates under managed care administrative services agreements where DMG does not assume the full risk). DMG believes that presenting amounts in this manner is useful because it presents its operations on a unified basis without the complication caused by models that DMG has adopted in its California market as a result of various regulations related to the assumption of institutional risk. Total care dollars under management is not a measure of financial performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues calculated in accordance with GAAP. Total care dollars under management includes PMPM payments received from third parties that are recorded net of expenses in our accounting records. The following table reconciles total care dollars under management to medical revenues for the periods indicated.

Note 7:    EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
EBITDA is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income before certain charges, including a net settlement gain, estimated accruals for certain legal matters, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, and a gain on the APAC JV ownership changes, further adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization.
We use EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as measures to assess operating and financial performance. We believe that these measures enhance a user’s understanding of normal operating income excluding certain charges, depreciation and amortization.
Neither EBITDA nor adjusted EBITDA is a measure of financial performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operations, or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. In addition, the calculation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is susceptible to varying interpretations and calculations, and the amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of historical operating results, and we do not intend these measures to be predictive of future results of operations.
