( HealthTrust ) of a majority interest in CoreTrust Holdings, LLC ( CoreTrust ) completed during the fourth quarter of 2022.

(a)Both financial and statistical results include the operating results of divested or closed businesses for the periods prior to the consummation of the respective divestiture or closing. Same-store operating results and statistical information include operating results of businesses operated in the comparable current year and prior year periods and exclude businesses divested or closed in 2023. There were no discontinued operations reported for the periods presented.

(c)EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which consists of net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP financial measure, is EBITDA adjusted to add back net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and to exclude loss (gain) from early extinguishment of debt, impairment and (gain) loss on sale of businesses, expense from third-party consulting costs associated with significant process and systems redesign across multiple functions (the Business Transformation Costs ) as part of the Company's previously disclosed multi-year initiative to modernize and consolidate technology platforms and associated processes, expense related to government and other legal matters and related costs, expense related to employee termination benefits and other restructuring charges, the impact of a change in estimate to increase the professional liability claims accrual recorded during the fourth quarter of 2022 with respect to claims incurred in prior years related to divested locations and the gain on sale by HealthTrust of a majority interest in CoreTrust completed during the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company has from time to time sold noncontrolling interests in certain of its subsidiaries or acquired subsidiaries with existing noncontrolling interest ownership positions. The Company believes that it is useful to present Adjusted EBITDA because it adds back the portion of EBITDA attributable to these third-party interests. The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company's hospital operations and to make decisions on the allocation of resources. Adjusted EBITDA is also used to evaluate the performance of the Company's executive management team and is one of the primary metrics used in connection with determining short-term cash incentive compensation and the achievement of vesting criteria with respect to performance-based equity awards. In addition, management utilizes Adjusted EBITDA in assessing the Company's consolidated results of operations and operational performance and in comparing the Company's results of operations between periods.

Footnotes to Financial Highlights, Financial Statements and Selected Operating Data (Continued)
The Company believes it is useful to provide investors and other users of the Company's financial statements this performance measure to align with how management assesses the Company's results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA also is comparable to a similar metric called Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Company's asset-based loan facility (the ABL Facility ) and the Company's existing note indentures, which is a key component in the determination of the Company's compliance with certain covenants under the ABL Facility and such note indentures (including the Company's ability to service debt and incur capital expenditures), and is used to determine the interest rate and commitment fee payable under the ABL Facility (although Adjusted EBITDA does not include all of the adjustments described in the ABL Facility). Adjusted EBITDA includes the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to hospitals that were divested during the course of such year, but in each case solely to the extent relating to the period prior to the consummation of the applicable divestiture.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating financial performance. The Company believes such adjustments are appropriate as the magnitude and frequency of such items can vary significantly and are not related to the assessment of normal operating performance. Additionally, this calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.
The following table reflects the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, to net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders as derived directly from the condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions):

The Company generated a net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, so the effect of dilutive securities is not considered because their effect would be antidilutive. If the Company had generated net income, the effect of stock awards and options on the diluted shares calculation would have been an increase of 864,816 shares and 202,182 shares during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 654,307 shares and 335,188 shares during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(e)The following supplemental table reconciles net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders, as reported, on a per share (diluted) basis, to net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders per share (diluted) with the adjustments described herein (total per share amounts may not add due to rounding). The Company believes that the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders per share (diluted) presents useful information to investors by highlighting the impact on net loss attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. stockholders per share (diluted) of selected items used in calculating Adjusted EBITDA which may not reflect the Company's underlying operating performance and assisting in comparing the Company's results of operations between periods.

(f)Both income from operations and net income (loss) included a net non-cash impairment expense of $10 million and income of $13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and a net non-cash impairment expense of $27 million and income of $35 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The impairment expense for 2024 was primarily to reduce the carrying value of several assets that were idled, disposed of or held-for-sale. The income for 2023 was primarily from gains on the sale of certain businesses during the periods and also impairment charges to reduce the value of certain long-lived assets at businesses the Company identified for closure, sale or sold. These gains and impairment charges do not have an impact on the calculation of the Company's financial covenants under the ABL Facility.
(g)The maximum aggregate principal amount under the ABL Facility is $1.0 billion, subject to borrowing base capacity. At June 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $273 million and approximately $599 million of additional borrowing capacity (after taking into consideration $67 million of outstanding letters of credit) under the ABL Facility.
