Free Cash Flow

The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Free cash flow was $66.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $84.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in free cash flow was due to an increase in, and timing of, purchases of patient medical equipment for operating requirements, partially offset by higher net cash provided by operating activities, primarily due to a net increase in the cash provided from operating assets and liabilities related to accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable and accrued expenses. Free cash flow during the three months ended September 30, 2024 was positively impacted by cash collections of accounts receivable from certain pending claims related to the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident (as previously disclosed).

Free cash flow was $140.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $162.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in free cash flow was due to an increase in, and timing of, purchases of patient medical equipment for operating requirements, partially offset by higher net cash provided by operating activities, primarily due to a net increase in the cash provided from operating assets and liabilities related to accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable and accrued expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, free cash flow was positively impacted by AdaptHealth's participation in the Optum Temporary Funding Assistance Program (as previously disclosed).

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires its management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s management bases its estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements which, in turn, could change the results from those reported. In addition, actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Critical estimates are those that the Company’s management considers the most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because they require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s critical estimates in relation to its consolidated financial statements include those related to revenue recognition and valuation of goodwill. There have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies and critical estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and critical estimates described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time and in the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, arising from legal proceedings, claims, and governmental and other investigations under or with respect to various governmental programs and state and federal laws relating to its business, including as a result of or following acquisitions and other business activities, that cover a wide range of matters. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If there is no probable estimate within a range of reasonably possible outcomes, the Company’s policy is to record at the low end of the range of such reasonably possible outcomes. Judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews its accruals at least quarterly and adjusts accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. At this time, the Company has no material accruals related to lawsuits, claims, investigations or proceedings, except as disclosed. While there can be no assurance, based on the Company’s evaluation of information currently available, the Company’s management believes any liability that may ultimately result from resolution of such loss contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. However, the Company’s assessment may change in the future based upon availability of new information and further developments in the proceedings of such matters. The results of legal proceedings, claims and investigations are inherently uncertain, and material adverse outcomes are possible. Professional legal fees associated with any such legal proceedings, claims and investigations are expensed as they are incurred.

On May 2, 2022, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York ("SDNY") issued a civil investigative demand to a subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. § 3733 ("FCA") regarding whether the subsidiary submitted false claims in violation of the FCA related to its billing of, and reimbursements from, federal health care programs for ventilators provided to patients from January 1, 2015 to the present. The Company has fully cooperated with the investigation. In August 2025, U.S. Attorney's Office for the SDNY informed the Company that, based on available information, they do not presently intend to pursue FCA claims against the Company.

On October 24, 2023, Allegheny County Employees’ Retirement System, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a purported class action complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers, and certain underwriters in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. On January 23, 2024, the court entered an order appointing Allegheny County Employees' Retirement System, International Union of Operating Engineers, Local No. 793, Members Pension Benefit Trust of Ontario, and City of Tallahassee Pension Plan as Lead Plaintiffs (the "Allegheny Lead Plaintiffs"). On May 14, 2024, Allegheny Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors, and certain underwriters, on behalf of shareholders that purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s stock between August 4, 2020 and November 7, 2023 (as to the complaint the “Allegheny County Consolidated Complaint”; as to the action, the “Allegheny County Consolidated Class Action”). The Allegheny County Consolidated Complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failing to disclose material information regarding (i) the Company’s billing practices with respect to its diabetes product category, and (ii) the Company’s compliance programs and integration with respect to acquired companies. The Allegheny County Consolidated Complaint seeks unspecified damages. On July 23, 2024, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Allegheny County Consolidated Complaint. The Allegheny Lead Plaintiffs filed their opposition brief on October 1, 2024, and defendants filed their reply brief on November 15, 2024. On May 28, 2025, the parties jointly filed a letter requesting that the Court hold the motion to dismiss in abeyance pending the outcome of a private mediation between the parties. On October 8, 2025, the parties attended a private mediation. On October 24, 2025, after subsequent settlement discussions, the parties jointly filed a letter informing the Court that the parties had reached an agreement in principle to settle the litigation and requesting until November 24, 2025 to negotiate the formal settlement agreement and file a preliminary approval motion.

The settlement is expected to consist of a cash payment by the Company which will primarily be funded by the Company’s insurance carriers, and is subject to preliminary and final Court approval and other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the settlement will be finalized and approved and, even if approved, whether the conditions to closing will be satisfied, and the actual outcome of this matter may differ materially from the terms of the settlement described herein.

On March 20, 2024, a putative shareholder of the Company, Weiding Wu, filed a shareholder derivative complaint related to the allegations in the Allegheny County Complaint, and against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (as to the complaint, the “Wu Derivative Complaint”; as to the action, the “Wu Derivative Action”). The Wu Derivative Complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and violated federal securities laws by making allegedly false and misleading statements and/or failing to disclose material information regarding (i) the Company’s billing practices with respect to its diabetes product category, and (ii) the Company’s compliance programs and integration with respect to acquired companies. The Wu Derivative Complaint also alleges claims for unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, abuse of control, and gross mismanagement. The Wu Derivative Complaint seeks, among other things, an award of money damages.

On July 25, 2024, the parties to the Wu Derivative Action stipulated to stay the Wu Derivative Action pending final resolution of the Allegheny County Consolidated Class Action. On July 26, 2024, the court so-ordered the parties’ stipulation.

The Company intends to vigorously defend against the allegations contained in the Wu Derivative Complaint, but there can be no assurance that the defense will be successful.

On June 24, 2025, a putative shareholder of the Company, Blake T. Myers, filed against the Company a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware seeking to compel an inspection of books and records under 8 Del. C.§ 220 (“Section 220”) (as to the complaint, the “Myers Section 220 Complaint”; as to the action, the “Myers Section 220 Action”). The Myers Section 220 Complaint asserts the putative shareholder’s right to inspect certain corporate books and records relevant to the issues in the Allegheny County Consolidated Class Action for the purported purposes of (i) investigating potential wrongdoing by the current and/or former members of the Board and the Company’s current and/or former executive officers, (ii) supporting appropriate action in the event current and/or former directors or executive officers did not properly discharge their fiduciary duties, and (iii) evaluating whether members of the current Board have a conflict of interest such that making a demand upon the Board to bring a derivative action on behalf of the Company would be futile.

On July 1, 2025, the parties to the Myers Section 220 Action met and conferred regarding a mutually agreeable resolution to obviate the need for litigation and agreed that a thirty-day window to continue negotiations was appropriate. On July 2, 2025, putative shareholder Myers filed a letter to the Court requesting upcoming deadlines to be extended through August 1, 2025. The Court granted the requested extension on July 8, 2025. On July 31, 2025, Myers filed a letter to the Court requesting upcoming deadlines be extended through August 31, 2025, which the Court granted on August 5, 2025. On September 3, 2025, Myers filed a letter to the Court requesting upcoming deadlines be extended through October 3, 2025. On September 26, 2025, the Company completed its production to Myers. On October 3, 2025, Myers filed a letter to the Court requesting additional time for the parties to confer about the Company’s production and offering to provide a subsequent update to the Court on November 3, 2025. On October 6, 2025, the Court stayed the action pending any further requests of the parties. On November 3, 2025, Myers filed a letter informing the Court that the parties are continuing to confer and offering to provide a subsequent update to the Court on December 3, 2025.

Should the Court lift the stay, the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action, and there can be no assurance that the defense will be successful.
