believe our strong second quarter results and entry into new states reflect the progress, scale, and momentum we continue to build at
Astrana as we drive towards our mission to empower entrepreneurial providers and deliver great healthcare to local communities across
the country. Strong revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth in the quarter were driven by continued organic growth in our Care Partners segment,
the successful integration of the Community Family Care acquisition, and continued success in managing total cost of care for our one
million members in value-based, risk-bearing arrangements. Our entry into Arizona and Hawai'i, partnerships with Anthem Blue Cross and
Elation Health, and our agreement to acquire Collaborative Health Systems are anticipated to continue driving strong, sustainable, and
profitable growth for the Astrana platform. We are excited to continue proving that value-based care can be done successfully in communities
across the country," said President and CEO of Astrana Health, Brandon K. Sim.

Note About Consolidated Entities
The Company consolidates entities in which it
has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of
the voting rights, and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling
interests represent third party equity ownership interests in the Company's consolidated entities (including certain VIEs). The
amount of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the Company's consolidated statements of income.
About Stockholders' Equity, Certain Treasury Stock and Earnings Per Share
As of the date of this press release, 41,048 holdback
shares have not been issued to certain former shareholders of the Company's subsidiary, Astrana Health Management, Inc. ("AHM"),
formerly known as Network Medical Management, Inc., who were AHM shareholders at the time of closing of the merger, as they have
yet to submit properly completed letters of transmittal to Astrana in order to receive their pro rata portion of Astrana's common
stock as contemplated under that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 21, 2016, among Astrana, AHM, Apollo Acquisition
Corp. ("Merger Subsidiary") and Kenneth Sim, M.D., as amended, pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary merged with and into AHM,
with AHM as the surviving corporation. 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 merger. The Company's consolidated
financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered
perfunctory and Astrana is legally obligated to issue these shares in connection with the merger.
Shares of Astrana's common stock owned by
Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation ("APC"), a VIE of the Company, are legally issued and
outstanding but excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company's consolidated financial statements, as such shares
are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock
outstanding used to calculate the Company's earnings per share.
