Management Commentary
Steve Griggs, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are very
pleased with our financial results this quarter which were driven by the outstanding efforts of our combined team. Our results were largely
driven by a full quarter of AeroCare and realization of integration synergies. Our business continues to grow organically as well as
through strategic acquisitions in key markets which complement our national platform. In the second quarter we acquired several excellent
businesses including Spiro Health Services, a provider of home medical equipment and supplies, and Healthy Living Medical Supplies, a
provider of continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps which strategically expands our diabetes footprint in the Midwest."
Mr. Griggs continued, "It has been six months since the acquisition
of AeroCare, and we have already achieved many of the ambitious goals we set out to accomplish including improving patient access, patient
experience, and clinical outcomes. With these goals in mind, we continue to execute on our strategy of organic growth, improving operations,
and closing accretive acquisitions."
Josh Parnes, President, commented, "We
have made great progress towards our strategic roadmap within operational technologies and chronic disease management to enhance our overall
business. As an example, we are very pleased with the results of our e-prescribe technology in diabetes which has improved patient and
provider satisfaction through reduced cycle time. While we are very excited in the results we've already seen, we're even
more optimistic about our continued transformation journey towards improving patient outcomes and reducing the overall cost of care."
Management will host a conference at 8:30 am ET
today to discuss the results and business activities. Interested parties may participate in the call by dialing:

facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation
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
implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently knows or that the Company currently
believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition,
forward-looking statements reflect the Company's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this

any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company's assessments as
of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
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.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment
Capex should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Accordingly,
these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any
other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure
of the Company's liquidity.
There is no reliable or reasonably estimable comparable GAAP measure
for the Company's non-GAAP financial guidance because the Company is not able to reliably predict the impact of certain items, including
