Information, Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors and Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Universal Health Services,
Inc. ( UHS ) is one of the nation s largest hospital companies operating, through its subsidiaries, acute care hospitals, behavioral healthcare facilities and ambulatory centers located throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.
UHS acts as the advisor to Universal Health Realty Income Trust, a real estate investment trust (NYSE:UHT). For additional information on the Company, visit our web site: http://www.uhsinc.com.
This press release contains forward-looking statements based on current management
expectations. Numerous factors, including those disclosed herein, those related to healthcare industry trends and those detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as set forth in Item 1A-Risk Factors and
in Item 7-Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and in Item 2-Forward Looking Statements and Risk Factors in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended
March 31, 2010), may cause the results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine our future results are beyond our capability to control or predict. These statements
are subject to risks and uncertainties and therefore actual results may differ materially. Readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements which reflect management s view only as of the date hereof. We undertake no
obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
We believe that operating income, operating margin, adjusted net income attributable to UHS, adjusted net income attributable to UHS per
diluted share and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ( EBITDA ), which are non-GAAP financial measures ( GAAP is Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America), are helpful
to our investors as measures of our operating performance. In addition, we believe that, when applicable, comparing and discussing our financial results based on these measures, as calculated, is helpful to our investors since it neutralizes the
effect in each year of items that are nonrecurring or non-operational in nature including items such as, but not limited to, gains on sales of assets and businesses, reserves for settlements, legal judgments and lawsuits and other amounts that may
be reflected in the current or prior year financial statements that relate to prior periods. To obtain a complete understanding of our financial performance these measures should be examined in connection with net income, determined in accordance
with GAAP, as presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in this report or in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2009 and Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010. Since the items included or excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance under GAAP, these measures
should not be considered to be alternatives to net income as a measure of our operating performance or profitability. Since these measures, as presented, are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations,
they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to use GAAP measures when evaluating our financial performance.
