Management Commentary
Steve Griggs, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are very
pleased with our operating and financial performance for the quarter, which reflected the outstanding efforts of our team members. We
continue to drive organic growth in the face of challenging external circumstances (including the ongoing impact of the Philips recall),
as well as further expanding our presence through strategic acquisitions in key markets. During the third quarter, we completed six acquisitions
and today we are announcing another four deals in the HME and diabetes product lines."
Mr. Griggs continued, "Having already achieved many of the targets
we set for the AeroCare merger, we are focused as a combined company on a strong finish to the year and continuing to execute on our core
strategies of organic growth, improving operations, and closing accretive acquisitions."
Josh Parnes, President, commented, "We continue to leverage technology
to drive operational improvements, such as our patient-facing technology. The Company continues to progress in evolving our business toward
chronic disease management, with an overall goal to drive improvements in patient outcomes and reductions in the cost of care, while at
the same time continuing to deliver strong organic growth from our existing businesses."

Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as "believe," "may," "will,"
"estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "should,"
"would," "plan," "predict," "potential," "seem," "seek," "future,"

matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projections, estimates and forecasts of
revenue and other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity and expectations and the Company's acquisition
pipeline. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of AdaptHealth management and are not predictions
of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as,
and must not be relied on, by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability.
Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances
are beyond the control of the Company.
These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, including the outcome of judicial and administrative proceedings to which the Company may become a party or governmental
investigations to which the Company may become subject that could interrupt or limit the Company's operations, result in adverse
judgments, settlements or fines and create negative publicity; changes in the Company's clients' preferences, prospects and
the competitive conditions prevailing in the healthcare sector; and the impact of the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the Company's
response to it. A further description of such risks and uncertainties can be found in the Company's filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and Financial Guidance
This release contains non-GAAP financial guidance, which is adjusted
to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that are evaluated on an individual basis. These non-GAAP
items are adjusted after considering their quantitative and qualitative aspects and typically have one or more of the following characteristics,
such as being highly variable, difficult to project, unusual in nature, significant to the results of a particular period or not indicative
of future operating results. Similar charges or gains were recognized in prior periods and will likely reoccur in future periods.
The Company uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient
Equipment Capex, which are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States, or U.S. GAAP, to analyze its financial results and believes that they are useful to investors, as a supplement to U.S.
GAAP measures. In addition, the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness and make investments under its existing credit
agreement is governed, in part, by its ability to satisfy tests based on a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex.
The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex is
useful to investors in evaluating the Company's financial performance. The Company's business requires significant investment
in equipment purchases to maintain its patient equipment inventory. Some equipment title transfers to patients' ownership after
a prescribed number of fixed monthly payments. Equipment that does not transfer wears out or often times is not recovered after a patient's
use of the equipment terminates. The Company uses this metric as the profitability measure in its incentive compensation plans that have
a profitability component and to evaluate acquisition opportunities, where it is most often used for purposes of contingent consideration
arrangements. In addition, the Company's debt agreements contain covenants that use a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient
Equipment Capex for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. For purposes of this metric, patient equipment capital expenditure
is measured as the value of the patient equipment received during the accounting period without regard to whether the equipment is purchased
or financed through lease transactions.
