Current report

In June 2026, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a proposed rule to update the Medicare ESRD Prospective Payment System (PPS) rate and policies for calendar year 2027. CMS estimates that the overall impact of the proposed rule will increase ESRD freestanding facilities’ average reimbursement by 1.1% in 2027 which includes a proposed increase to account for the incorporation of phosphate binders into the ESRD PPS base rate.

Current report

Charges impacting operating income - Cybersecurity incident-related charges. During the second quarter of 2025, we experienced a cybersecurity incident that impacted certain elements of our network and resulted in a temporary disruption of our operations. As a result of our efforts to remediate the incident and restore systems with the assistance of third-party cybersecurity professionals, we incurred significant costs, including, but not limited to patient care charges of approximately $1.0 million and general and administrative expenses of approximately $12.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. These costs did not include the impact related to business interruption on our results.

Current report

Patient care costs. U.S. dialysis patient care costs per treatment for the second quarter of 2026 decreased from the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to decreased labor costs, stemming from a seasonal decrease in payroll taxes and increased productivity levels at our dialysis centers, as well as decreased pharmaceutical costs, including phosphate binders. Additionally, our fixed other direct operating expenses positively impacted patient care costs per treatment due to increased treatments in the

Current report

second quarter of 2026. These decreases were partially offset by increases in health benefits expense.

Current report

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, U.S. dialysis operating income and adjusted operating income both increased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, due to the factors discussed above. Operating income was impacted by the cybersecurity incident-related charges in the second quarter of 2025, as described above.

Current report

International operating income for the second quarter of 2026 decreased compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by a loss on sale of divested centers. International operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to favorable changes in the fair value of contingent consideration associated with a prior acquisition recognized in the second quarter of 2025 and increased compensation expense.

Current report

The effective income tax rate and the effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to the recognition of the write down of a 2014 tax refund claim in the second quarter of 2025.

Current report

There were no non-GAAP adjustments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 or the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Current report

(1)Represents charges recognized to remediate a cybersecurity incident and restore systems during the second quarter of 2025. We have excluded these charges from our non-GAAP metrics as we do not believe they are indicative of our ordinary results of operations. See additional discussion above under the heading "Cybersecurity incident-related charges" within "U.S. dialysis results of operations".
Removed paragraphs (7)

Previous report

Patient care costs. U.S. dialysis patient care costs per treatment for the first quarter of 2026 increased from the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily due to increased compensation expense, including increased wage rates, as well as increased insurance costs. These increases were partially offset by decreases in health benefits expense and pharmaceutical costs.

Previous report

Accruals for legal matters. During the fourth quarter of 2025, we recorded a charge of $25 million for a legal matter within our international line of business.

Previous report

International operating results for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 were impacted by a legal accrual in 2025, as described above. International operating results and adjusted operating results were impacted by charges in the fourth quarter of 2025 for balances deemed uncollectible and average reimbursement rate increases in the first quarter of 2026 in certain countries. International operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was relatively flat compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to acquired treatment growth, offset by increased compensation expenses.

Previous report

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations and the effective income tax rate from continuing operations attributable to DaVita Inc. decreased for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily due to a reduction in the impact of valuation allowances and nondeductible executive comp, partially offset by larger discrete benefits recognized in the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily related to the release of reserves that expired under the statute of limitations. Additionally, our effective income tax rate from continuing operations was also impacted by the portion of earnings attributable to our non-controlling interests.

Previous report

(1)Represents an accrual for potential third-party judgment costs for certain legal matters. We have excluded this charge from our non-GAAP metrics because, among other things, we do not believe it is indicative of our ordinary results of operations because the charge is significant and may obscure analysis of underlying trends and financial performance of our current business.

Previous report

As of March 31, 2026, we have outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of approximately $207 million under a bilateral secured letter of credit facility separate from our senior secured credit facilities.

Previous wording

We assess our revenue and operating performance for our U.S. dialysis business based upon several principal metrics including, among others, treatment volume, revenue per treatment and patient care costs. Each of these metrics may be impacted by a number of factors that change from period to period and over time. For example, treatment volumes may be impacted by, among other things, mortality levels, missed treatment rates and admission rates. Revenue per treatment may be impacted by, among other things, rate changes, mix of patients with commercial plans and government programs as primary payor, timing of collections and seasonal factors such as patients meeting health plan co-insurance and deductibles. Patient care costs may be impacted by, among other things, labor market conditions and cost trends in pharmaceuticals and other medical supplies. We have set forth a discussion of such factors below, and we believe that information related to changes in these metrics from period to period allows investors to assess the performance of the business.

Previous wording

We continue to be impacted by external conditions, including, but not limited to, those related to general economic, political and global health conditions and changing population or demographic trends. These conditions can impact our business in a variety of ways, including, among other things, by affecting our patient census, treatment volumes, revenues, results of operations and operating and other costs. Certain of these impacts could be further intensified by global events such as the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine that have continued to drive sociopolitical, geopolitical and economic uncertainty; severe weather events and other natural disasters; the impact of healthcare, immigration, trade and other policies implemented by the U.S. administration; and the impact of federal government shutdowns. These conditions are generally outside of our control, cannot reasonably be predicted and are interrelated or have interdependent complex consequences. As a result, the ultimate impact of these conditions on our business over time will depend on a myriad of future developments and is highly uncertain and difficult to predict. For additional discussion of general economic, marketplace and global health conditions that could impact our business, see Part I Item 1. "Business" and Part I Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our 2025 10-K.

Previous wording

In the first quarter of 2026, treatment per day volumes were flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. Total treatment volumes in the first quarter were ahead of expectations due to, among other things, better than expected patient census that was primarily driven by lower than expected mortality and higher patient transfers partially offset by lower than expected new admissions. Mortality levels over time may be influenced by a number of factors, among other things, the impact of infectious diseases on our patient population and the availability and use of vaccines, treatments and therapies. Changes in these mortality rates, particularly in the ESKD and CKD populations, may in turn impact admission rates, treatment volumes, future revenues and non-acquired growth, among other things, and the magnitude of these cumulative impacts could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. For additional detail on these risks, see the discussion in Part I Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our 2025 10-K.

Current wording

In the second quarter of 2026, treatment per day volumes increased compared to the second quarter of 2025. Total treatment volumes in the second quarter were slightly ahead of expectations due to, among other things, better than expected patient census that was primarily driven by lower than expected mortality partially offset by lower than expected incoming patient transfers and higher than expected missed treatments. Mortality levels over time may be influenced by a number of factors, among other things, the impact of infectious diseases on our patient population and the availability and use of vaccines, treatments and therapies. For example, emerging treatments in the United States that clear middle molecules from the blood may, among other things, reduce mortality as compared to standard dialysis treatments. Two current treatment pathways that provide middle molecule clearance are expanded hemodialysis (“expanded HD”) and hemodiafiltration (“HDF”). We will work to expand patient access to these therapies, as may be prescribed by their physician. We expect to begin offering expanded HD broadly across our network in the coming quarters.

Previous wording

Global economic conditions and political and regulatory developments, including, among other things, ongoing inflationary pressures and U.S. administration policies have increased, and may continue to increase, our expenses. For example, staffing and labor costs have increased during the year, due to, among other factors, the continuation of inflationary conditions. While the cumulative impact of any increased staffing, labor, and supply costs and other expenses could be material, we have seen lower than expected labor-related costs due to, among other things, productivity improvements and we expect these efficiencies to continue throughout the year. Our industry has also experienced increased union organizing activities. For example, union petitions have been filed at a number of our clinics in California. While we have won some elections, we are in different stages of the voting process and have been subject to legal challenges. For additional details on the risks related to rising labor costs and union organizing activities, see the discussion in Part I Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our 2025 10-K under the headings, "Our business is labor intensive..." and "Global health conditions, changing population or demographic trends, severe weather events or natural disasters and general economic and political conditions..."

Current wording

Global economic conditions and political and regulatory developments, including, among other things, ongoing inflationary pressures and U.S., state and local administration policies and actions have increased, and may continue to increase, our expenses and may have an impact on our revenue per treatment. For example, the decision to let enhanced premium tax credits expire at the end of 2025 has had an adverse impact on enrollment in the Affordable Care Act exchanges and our commercial mix, which in turn adversely impacts our revenue per treatment, among other things. These global economic conditions and political and regulatory developments also continue to exert pressure on our staffing and labor costs, which have increased year over year due to, among other factors, the continuation of inflationary conditions. While the cumulative impact of any increased staffing, labor, and supply costs and other expenses could be material, we have experienced productivity improvements and we expect these efficiencies to continue throughout the year. Our industry has also experienced increased union organizing activities. For example, union petitions have been filed at a number of our clinics in California. We have had different results with elections and are in different stages with elections and legal challenges.

Previous wording

Our U.S. dialysis operating revenues and expenses are directly driven by treatment volume. The decrease in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the first quarter of 2026 from the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by a decrease in treatment days, partially offset by increased patient count. The decrease in our U.S. dialysis treatments for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by a decline in average treatments per day due to mix of treatments days.

Previous wording

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense is directly impacted by the number of our dialysis centers and the information technology that we develop and acquire. U.S. dialysis depreciation and amortization expenses in the first quarter of 2026 decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily due to higher depreciation expense in the fourth quarter for certain leasehold improvements.

Current wording
