Unless the context dictates otherwise, references in these notes to the financial statements to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words are references to Astrana Health, Inc. (“Astrana”), formerly known as Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated entities, as appropriate, including its consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”).

Headquartered in Alhambra, California, Astrana is a leading provider-centric, technology-powered, risk-bearing healthcare company. Leveraging its proprietary end-to-end technology solutions, Astrana operates an integrated healthcare delivery platform that enables providers to successfully participate in value-based care arrangements, thus empowering them to deliver accessible, high-quality care to patients in a cost-effective manner. Together with Astrana’s affiliated physician groups and consolidated subsidiaries and VIEs, the Company provides value-based care enablement services and care delivery with its consolidated care partners to serve patients in California, Nevada, and Texas, the majority of whom are covered by private or public insurance provided through Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial, with some portion of revenue from self-pay patients. The Company provides value based care services to each major constituent of the healthcare delivery system, including patients, families, primary care physicians, specialists, acute care hospitals, alternative sites of inpatient care, ancillary providers, and health plans. The Company’s physician network consists of primary care physicians, specialist physicians, physician and specialist extenders, and hospitalists.

Segments

The Company’sthree reportable segments are Care Partners, Care Delivery and Care Enablement, which are described as follows:

Care Partners

The Care Partners segment is focused on building and managing high-quality and high-performance provider networks by partnering with, empowering, and investing in strong provider partners aligned on a shared vision for coordinated care delivery. By leveraging the Company’s unique care enablement platform and ability to recruit, empower, and incentivize physicians to effectively manage total cost of care, the Company is able to organize partnered providers into successful multi-payer risk-bearing organizations that take on varying levels of risk based on total cost of care across membership in all lines of business, including, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, Commercial, Exchange, and Medicare fee for service ("FFS"). The Company's healthcare delivery entities, through a network of risk-bearing organizations ("RBOs") that encompass independent practice associations ("IPAs"), accountable care organizations ("ACOs"), and state-specific entities such as Restricted Knox-Keene licensed health plans in California. These entities are tasked with the coordination and provision of high-quality care to patients within Astrana's ecosystem. This helps provide a seamless continuity of care among patients in different age groups, stages of life, and life circumstances. Beginning in 2024, in addition to participating in the ACO REACH Model, the Company began participating in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (“MSSP”). The MSSP was created to promote accountability and improve coordination of care for Medicare beneficiaries.

Care Delivery

The Company’s Care Delivery segment is a patient-centric, data-driven care delivery organization focused on delivering high-quality and accessible care to all patients. The Company’s care delivery organization includes primary care, multi-specialty care, and ancillary care services. This segment includes the following:

•

Primary care clinics, including post-acute care services;

•

Specialty care clinics and inpatient services, including cardiac care, endocrinology, and ophthalmology as well as hospitalist and intensivist services; and

•

Ancillary service providers, such as urgent care centers, outpatient imaging centers, ambulatory surgery centers, and full-service labs.

Care Enablement

The Company’s Care Enablement segment represents a comprehensive platform that integrates clinical, operational, financial, and administrative information, all powered by the Company’s proprietary technology suite. This platform enhances the delivery of high-quality, value-based care to patients and helps lead to superior clinical and financial outcomes. The Company provides solutions to payers and providers, including independent physicians, provider and medical groups, and ACOs. The Company’s platform meets providers and payers wherever they are on the spectrum of total cost of care, offering solutions for fee-for-service entities to providers opening to taking upside and downside risk on professional and institutional spend, and across all patient types, including Medicare, Medicaid, Commercial, and Exchange patients. This segment includes the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries that operate as management services organizations (“MSOs”), which enter into long-term management and/or administrative services agreements with RBOs and other providers. By leveraging the Company’s care enablement platform, providers and payers can improve their ability to deliver high-quality care to their patients and achieve better patient outcomes.

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all annual disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments as well as intercompany accounts and transactions, which have been eliminated) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading, as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any future periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, include Astrana’s wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that users of the interim financial data have either read or have access to our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

Thepreparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include collectability of receivables, recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets, business combination and goodwill valuation and impairment assessment, accrual of medical liabilities (incurred but not reported claims), determination of hospital shared-risk and health plan shared-risk revenue and receivables (including constraints and completion factors), income tax-valuation allowance, share-based compensation, and right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.

Business Combinations

The Company uses the acquisition method of accounting for all business combinations, which requires assets and liabilities of the acquiree to be recorded at fair value, to measure the fair value of the consideration transferred, including contingent consideration, to be determined on the acquisition date, and to account for acquisition-related costs separately from the business combination.

Reportable Segments

As of June 30, 2024, the Company operates inthree reportable segments:

•

Care Partners;

•

Care Delivery; and

•

Care Enablement.

Refer to Note 1 — “Description of Business” and Note 18 — “Segments” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for information on the Company’s segments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit. The Company considers all highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible into known amounts of cash and mature within ninety days from their date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

The Company maintains its cash in deposit accounts with several banks, which at times may exceed the insured limits of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s deposit accounts with banks exceeded the FDIC’s insured limit by approximately$345.6 million and$318.9 million, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses to date and performs ongoing evaluations of these financial institutions to limit the Company’s concentration of risk exposure.

Receivables, Receivables – Related Parties, Other Receivables and Loan Receivables

The Company’s receivables are comprised of accounts receivable, capitation and fee for service receivable, risk pool settlements, incentive receivables, management fee income, and other receivables. Accounts receivable are recorded and stated at the amount expected to be collected.

The Company’s receivables – related parties are comprised of risk pool settlements, management fee income, and other receivables. Receivables – related parties are recorded and stated at the amount expected to be collected.

The Company’s loan receivables consist of promissory notes that accrue interest per annum. As of June 30, 2024, promissory notes are expected to be collected by their maturity dates.

Capitation receivables relate to each health plan’s capitation and are received by the Company in the month following the month of service. Capitation receivable also includes receivables from CMS related to our participation in the ACO REACH model. Risk pool settlements and incentive receivables mainly consist of the Company’s hospital shared-risk pool receivable, which is recorded quarterly based on reports received from the Company’s hospital partners and management’s estimate of the Company’s portion of the estimated risk pool surplus for open performance years. Settlement of risk pool surplus or deficits occurs approximately 18 months after the risk pool performance year is completed. Other receivables consist of receivables from fee-for-service (“FFS”) reimbursement for patient care, certain expense reimbursements, transportation reimbursements from the hospitals, and stop-loss insurance premium reimbursements.

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on the receivables. Management reviews the composition of the Company’s receivables and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. The Company also regularly analyzes the ultimate collectability of accounts receivable after certain stages of the collection cycle using a look-back analysis to determine the amount of receivables subsequently collected, and adjustments are recorded when necessary. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.

Receivables are recorded when the Company is able to determine amounts receivable under applicable contracts and agreements based on information provided and collection is reasonably likely to occur. Regarding the credit loss standard, the Company continuously monitors its collections of receivables. Our expectation is that the historical credit loss experienced across our receivable portfolio is materially similar to any current expected credit losses that would be estimated under the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model.

Concentrations of Credit Risks

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts by service type and payer type. This level of detail provides useful information pertaining to how the Company generates revenue by significant revenue stream and by type of direct contracts. The condensed consolidated statements of income present disaggregated revenue by service type. The following table presents disaggregated revenue generated by payer type for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

The Company had major payers that contributed the following percentages of net revenue for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

*Less than 10% of total net revenues

The Company had major payers that contributed to the following percentages of receivables and receivables – related parties:

Revenue Recognition

The Company receives payments from the following sources for services rendered:

•

Commercial insurers;

•

Federal government under the Medicare program administered by CMS;

•

State governments under Medicaid and other programs;

•

Other third-party payers (e.g., hospitals and IPAs); and

•

Individual patients and clients.

Revenue primarily consists of the following:

•

Capitation revenue;

•

Risk pool settlements and incentives;

•

Management fee revenue; and

•

FFS revenue.

Revenue is recorded in the period in which services are rendered or the period in which the Company is obligated to provide services. The form of billing and related risk of collection for such services may vary by type of revenue and the customer.

Risk Pool Settlements and Incentives

Medicare Shared Savings Program Revenue

Beginning in 2024, Astrana participates in MSSP. The MSSP has multiple risk tracks, and Astrana is currently participating in the ENHANCED risk track. Under the MSSP Model, Astrana recruits a group of Participant and Preferred (in-network) Providers. Based on the Participant Providers that join our ACO, CMS grants us a pool of Traditional Medicare patients (beneficiaries) to manage (the “MSSP Aligned Beneficiaries”). The Company’s MSSP Aligned Beneficiaries will receive services from physicians and other medical service providers that are both in-network and out-of-network. CMS continues to pay participants and preferred providers on a fee-for-service basis for Medicare-covered services provided to MSSP Aligned Beneficiaries. The Company continues to bear risk on all Medicare expenditures (both in-network and out-of-network), excluding drug expenditures covered by Medicare Part D, based on a budgetary benchmark established with CMS. Astrana’s shared savings or losses in managing the Company’s beneficiaries are generally determined on an annual basis after reconciliation with CMS. Pursuant to Astrana’s risk-share agreement with CMS, the Company is eligible to receive the surplus (“shared savings”) or is liable for the deficit (“shared losses”) according to the budgetary benchmark established by CMS based on Astrana’s efficiency, or lack thereof, in managing the expenditures associated with the Company’s MSSP Aligned Beneficiaries. The Company estimates the shared service revenue by analyzing the activities during the relevant time period in contemplation of the agreed-upon benchmarks, metrics, performance criteria, and attribution criteria based on those and any other contractually defined factors. Revenue is not recorded and is constrained until the shared service revenue can be reasonably estimated by the Company and to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur once any uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)

Contract liabilities are recorded when cash payments are received in advance of the Company's performance. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company's contract liability balance was $2.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Approximately $0.6 million of the Company's contract liability accrued as of December 31, 2023 has been recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Contract liability is presented within accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

Federal and state income taxes are computed at currently enacted tax rates less tax credits using the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are adjusted for both items that do not have tax consequences and for the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities. Tax provisions include amounts that are currently payable, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise because of temporary differences between the timing of when items of income and expense are recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes, changes in recognition of tax positions and any changes in the valuation allowance caused by a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized.

The Company uses a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not and a measurement attribute on all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return in order to be recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Once the recognition threshold is met, the tax position is measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 "Income Taxes (Topics 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.

Refer to Note 19 - “Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments” for additional information on contingent considerations.

Advanced Diagnostic and Surgical Center, Inc. (“ADSC”)

On January 1, 2024, the Company acquired 95% of the equity interest of ADSC. ADSC is a diagnostic and surgical center that also provides ambulatory surgery services. The total consideration consisted of cash funded upon close of the transaction and contingent considerations fair valued at $3.6 million on January 1, 2024 (“ADSC contingent considerations”) and is subject to change based on working capital adjustments. Refer to Note 19 - “Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments” for additional information on contingent considerations.

The Company is still in the process of finalizing the purchase price allocation for these acquisitions, and therefore, the balances are subject to change as a result of any working capital or fair value adjustments. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to each acquisition at the acquisition date (in thousands):

• Others consist of estimated fair values of the assets acquired, net of cash acquired, related to ADSC and PCCCV.

Following the acquisition dates, the operating results have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements. For the period from the acquisition dates through June 30, 2024, the total revenue and net income of CFC, AHMS, ADSC and PCCCV, in aggregate, were $132.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

The pro forma financial information in the table below presents the combined results of the Company and CFC, AHMS, ADSC and PCCCV as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2023. The pro forma information presented is shown for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of future results of operations of the Company or results of operations of the Company that would have actually occurred had the transactions been in effect for the periods presented.

The acquisitions were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the consideration for the acquired companies was allocated to acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based upon their fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. Factors leading to goodwill being recognized are the Company’s expectation of synergies from combining operations of entities acquired and the Company, as well as the value of intangible assets that are not separately recognized, such as assembled workforce. The determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired requires the Company to make estimates and use valuation techniques when market value is not readily available. Transaction costs associated with business acquisitions are expensed as they are incurred.

At the time of acquisition, the Company estimates the amount of the identifiable intangible assets based on a valuation and the facts and circumstances available at the time. The Company determines the final value of the identifiable intangible assets as soon as information is available, but not more than one year from the date of acquisition.

Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The Companyhadno impair ment of its goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

The change in the carrying value of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was as follows (in thousands):

APC’s shares were not redeemable, and it was not probable that the shares would become redeemable as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Stockholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2024,41,048 holdback shares have not been issued to certain former AHM shareholders who were AHM shareholders at the time of closing of the 2017 merger of Astrana with AHM, as they have yet to submit properly completed letters of transmittal to Astrana in order to receive their pro rata portion of Astrana common stock as contemplated under the 2017 merger agreement. Pending such receipt, such former AHM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the 2017 merger. The condensed consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and the Company is legally obligated to issue these shares in connection with the 2017 merger.

Preferred Stock – Series A and Series B

In October 2015, AHM purchased from Astrana, in a private offering of securities,1,111,111 units, each unit consisting ofone share of Astrana’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and a common stock warrant to purchaseone share of Astrana’s common stock at an exercise price of $9.00 per share, which expired in October 2020.

Commitments and Contingencies

Regulatory Matters

Laws and regulations governing the Medicare program and healthcare generally are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes it complies with all applicable laws and regulations and is unaware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing. While no regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as significant regulatory action, including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medi-Cal programs.

As a risk-bearing organization, the Company is required to follow regulations of the Department of Managed Health Care (“DMHC”). The Company must comply with a minimum working capital requirement, tangible net equity (“TNE”) requirement, cash-to-claims ratio, and claims payment requirements prescribed by the DMHC. TNE is defined as net assets less intangibles, less non-allowable assets (which include amounts due from affiliates), plus subordinated obligations.

Many of the Company’s payer and provider contracts are complex in nature and may be subject to differing interpretations regarding amounts due for the provision of medical services. Such differing interpretations may not come to light until a substantial period of time has passed following contract implementation. Liabilities for claims disputes are recorded when the loss is probable and can be estimated. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in current operations.

Standby Letters of Credit

The Company established irrevocable standby letters of credit with Truist Bank for a total of$31.8 million for the benefit of CMS and certain health plans as of June 30, 2024 (see Note 9 — “Credit Facility, Bank Loans, and Lines of Credit — Standby Letters of Credit”).

Certain IPAs consolidated by the Company established irrevocable standby letters of credit with Preferred Bank for a total of$3.9 million for the benefit of certain health plans as of June 30, 2024 (see Note 9 — “Credit Facility, Bank Loans, and Lines of Credit — Standby Letters of Credit”).

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and other matters arising in the normal course of its business. The resolution of any claim or litigation is subject to inherent uncertainty and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations.

Liability Insurance

The Company believes that its insurance coverage is appropriate based upon the Company’s claims experience and the nature and risks of the Company’s business. In addition to the known incidents that have resulted in the assertion of claims, the Company cannot be certain that its insurance coverage will be adequate to cover liabilities arising out of claims asserted against the Company, the Company’s affiliated professional organizations or the Company’s affiliated hospitalists in the future where the outcomes of such claims are unfavorable. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of all pending claims, including liabilities in excess of the Company’s insurance coverage, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows; however, there can be no assurance that future claims will not have such a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. Contracted physicians are required to obtain their own insurance coverage.

Although the Company currently maintains liability insurance policies on a claims-made basis which are intended to cover malpractice liability and certain other claims, the coverage must be renewed annually, and may not continue to be available to the Company in future years at acceptable costs and on favorable terms.

For equity method investments, see Note 5 — “Investment in Other Entities — Equity Method”.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740 Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates.

On an interim basis, the Company estimates what its anticipated annual effective tax rate will be and records a quarterly income tax provision in accordance with the estimated annual rate, plus the tax effect of certain discrete items that arise during the quarter. As the fiscal year progresses, the Company refines its estimates based on actual events and financial results during the quarter. This process can result in significant changes to the Company’s estimated effective tax rate. When this occurs, the income tax provision is adjusted during the quarter in which the estimates are refined so that the year-to-date provision reflects the estimated annual effective tax rate. These changes, along with adjustments to the Company’s deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, may create fluctuations in the overall effective tax rate from quarter to quarter.

The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, was 30.7% and 41.1%, respectively. The tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and income from flow-through entities.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. The Company will recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in California. The Company and its subsidiaries’ state and federal income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2023, and for the years ended December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2023, respectively.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during a certain period and is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Astrana by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, using the as-if converted method for secured convertible notes and preferred stock, and the treasury stock method for options and common stock warrants.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, APC held 7,132,698 shares of Astrana’s common stock, which are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes and not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate earnings per share.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, restricted stock of 54,280 and 238,096, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because the assumed proceeds, as calculated under the treasury stock method, resulted in these awards being antidilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, restricted stock of 156,277 and 246,431, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because the assumed proceeds, as calculated under the treasury stock method, resulted in these awards being antidilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024,943,385 of contingently issuable shares were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because these conditions were not achieved as of June 30, 2024. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023,838,628 of contingently issuable shares were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because these conditions were not achieved as of June 30, 2023.

Below is a summary of the earnings per share computations:

Below is a summary of the shares included in the diluted earnings per share computations:

Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs. A VIE is defined as a legal entity whose equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk, or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any of the following three characteristics: decision-making rights, the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Certain state laws prohibit a professional corporation that has more than one shareholder from being a shareholder in another professional corporation. As a result, the Company cannot directly own shares in other professional corporations. However, an exception to this regulation permits a professional corporation that has only one shareholder to own shares in another professional corporation. In reliance on this exception, the Company designated certain key personnel as the nominee shareholders of professional corporations that hold controlling and non-controlling ownership interests in several medical corporations. Via a Physician Shareholder Agreement with the nominee shareholder, the Company has the ability to designate another person to be the equity holder of the professional corporation. In addition, these entities are managed by the Company’s wholly owned MSOs via MSA. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the professional corporations and their consolidated medical corporations are consolidated by the Company in the accompanying condensed financial statements.

Due to corporate practice of medicine laws, the Company operates by maintaining long-term MSAs with its affiliated IPAs and medical groups, each of which is owned and operated by physicians only, and employs or contracts with additional physicians to provide medical services. AHM is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and has entered into MSAs with several affiliated IPAs, including APC. APC arranges for the delivery of healthcare services by contracting with physicians or professional medical corporations for primary care and specialty care services. The physicians in the IPA are exclusively in control of, and responsible for, all aspects of the practice of medicine for enrolled patients. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, APC has been determined to be a VIE of AHM, as AHM is its primary beneficiary with the ability, through majority representation on the APC Joint Planning Board and otherwise, to direct the activities (excluding clinical decisions) that most significantly affect APC’s economic performance. Therefore, APC and its wholly owned subsidiaries and VIEs are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements.

Astrana Medical and Astrana Care Partners Medical were formed in May 2019 and July 2021, respectively, as designated shareholder professional corporations. The Company’s Vice Chairman is the sole shareholder of Astrana Medical and Astrana Care Partners Medical. Via a Physician Shareholder Agreement, Astrana makes all the decisions on behalf of Astrana Medical and Astrana Care Partners Medical. Astrana has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, Astrana Medical and Astrana Care Partners Medical. Therefore, Astrana Medical and Astrana Care Partners Medical are controlled by and consolidated by Astrana as the primary beneficiary of the VIEs.

On January 1, 2024, a 25% equity interest of Eleanor Leung M.D. was re-acquired by the Company. As a result, Astrana Care Partners Medical now owns 100% of Eleanor Leung M.D.

The following table includes assets that can only be used to settle the liabilities of the Company’s VIEs, and to which the creditors of Astrana have no recourse, and liabilities to which the creditors of the Company’s VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of Astrana, as the primary beneficiary of the VIEs. These assets and liabilities, with the exception of investments in affiliates and amounts due to, or from, affiliates, which are eliminated upon consolida tion, are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

*Investment in affiliates includes the Company’s VIEs’ investment in Astrana, which is reflected as treasury shares and eliminated upon consolidation. Amounts due to, or from, affiliates are receivables with Astrana’s subsidiaries. As a result, these balances are eliminated upon consolidation and are not reflected on Astrana’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

Leases
