PART I
Item 1.    BUSINESS
Who We Are
InnovAge is the leading healthcare delivery platform by number of participants focused on providing all-inclusive, capitated care to high-cost, seniors, many of whom are dual-eligible. Our programs are designed to address two of the most pressing challenges facing the U.S. healthcare industry: rising costs and poor outcomes. Our participant-centered care delivery approach is designed to improve the quality of care our participants receive, while keeping them in their homes for as long as safely possible and reducing over-utilization of high-cost care settings such as hospitals and nursing homes. Through our Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (“PACE”) program, we fulfill a broad range of medical and ancillary services for seniors, including in-home care services (skilled, unskilled and personal care), in-center services such as primary care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, dental services, mental health and psychiatric services, meals, and activities; transportation to and from the PACE center and third-party medical appointments; and care management. We directly contract with government payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and do not rely on third-party administrative organizations or health plans. We believe our model aligns with how healthcare is evolving, namely (i) the shift toward value-based care, in which coordinated, outcomes-driven, quality care is delivered while reducing unnecessary spend, (ii) eliminating excessive administrative costs by contracting directly with the government, (iii) focusing on the patient experience, and (iv) addressing social determinants of health.
InnovAge Holding Corp. (formerly, TCO Group Holdings, Inc.) and certain wholly owned subsidiaries were formed as for-profit corporations effective May 13, 2016, for the purpose of purchasing all the outstanding common stock of Total Community Options, Inc. d/b/a InnovAge, which was formed in May 2007. In connection with this purchase, Total Community Options, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries converted from not-for-profit organizations to for-profit corporations. In connection with our initial public offering (“IPO”), which occurred in March 2021, we changed the name of our company from TCO Group Holdings, Inc. to InnovAge Holding Corp. (“InnovAge”). In this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the terms “we”, “our”, “our company” and “us” may refer, as the context requires, to InnovAge or collectively to InnovAge and its subsidiaries.
InnovAge is headquartered in Denver, Colorado. The Company manages its business as one reportable segment, PACE.
PACE
As of June 30, 2023, the Company served approximately 6,400 PACE participants, making it the largest PACE provider in the United States of America (the “U.S.”) based on participants served, and operated 17 PACE centers across Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
PACE is a fully-capitated managed care program, which serves the frail elderly, and predominantly dual-eligible, population in a community-based service model. We define dual-eligible seniors as individuals who are 55+ and qualify for benefits under both Medicare and Medicaid. InnovAge provides all needed healthcare services through an all-inclusive, coordinated model of care, and the Company is at risk for 100% of healthcare costs incurred with respect to the care of its participants. PACE programs receive capitation payments directly from Medicare Parts C and D, Medicaid, Veterans Administration (“VA”), and private pay sources. Additionally, under the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) share part of the risk for providing prescription medication to the Company’s participants. We deliver our participant-centered care through the InnovAge Platform (as defined herein), which is designed to bring high-touch, comprehensive, value-based care.
We believe the traditional fee-for-service reimbursement model in healthcare does not adequately incentivize providers to efficiently manage this complex population. Dual-eligible seniors must navigate a disjointed, separately administered set of Medicare and Medicaid benefits, which often results in uncoordinated care delivered in silos. Our vertically integrated care model and full-risk contracts incentivize us to coordinate and manage all aspects of a participant’s health. Costs under the PACE program are estimated to be 15% lower on average than for a comparable dual-eligible population aged 65 and older under Medicaid, based on an analysis of most recently available data by the National PACE Association in July 2023. Importantly, we believe we can deliver better health outcomes. Our care model reduces unnecessary or avoidable medical spend. Based on an analysis performed using the data most recently available to us from 2018, we estimate that across our mature markets, our participants on average have 16% fewer hospital admissions and 73% fewer low- to medium-severity emergency room visits relative to a comparable Medicare fee-for-service population with similar risk scores for which data is available. In addition, as of June 30, 2023, our participants had a 12% lower 30-day hospital readmission rate compared

to a frail, dual-eligible or disabled waiver population. In addition to reducing spend, we also focus on ensuring our participants are satisfied and receive the necessary care. Our participant satisfaction, based on our most recent survey of participants administered by an independent third party as of March 1, 2023, is 78%.
We believe our value proposition to each constituency translates into a predictable economic model. We directly contract with Medicare and Medicaid on a per member, per month (“PMPM”) basis, which creates recurring revenue streams and provides significant visibility into our revenue trajectory. We receive 100% of the pooled capitated payment to directly provide or manage the healthcare needs of our participants.
Industry Challenges
Unsustainable and rising healthcare costs. According to data from the Office of the Actuary of CMS, healthcare spending in the United States grew at approximately 5% per year from 2016 to 2021, and in 2021 represented $4.3 trillion of annual spend, or 18.3% of U.S. GDP. The overall growth rate of healthcare spending is expected to accelerate due to the aging population.
Government healthcare spend is disproportionally concentrated on the dual-eligible population, who typically suffer from multiple chronic conditions and require long-term services and supports. Medicare and Medicaid spend on average three times more per capita on a dual-eligible senior than a Medicare-only senior. Improved care management of dual-eligible seniors is critical to reducing the rapid growth in government healthcare spending in the United States.
Highly fragmented, uncoordinated healthcare system. The U.S. healthcare system is complex and highly fragmented, resulting in piecemeal care delivery across different providers who each lack a complete picture of the patient. Furthermore, this dynamic often makes the healthcare system difficult for patients to navigate. Primary, acute, behavioral and long-term care providers need to work together to effectively manage a patient’s care, yet, today, they often work in silos. This lack of care coordination can result in missed or inaccurate diagnoses, gaps in care, unnecessary spend and ultimately sub-optimal patient outcomes.
High-cost, dual-eligible seniors are at high risk of falling through the cracks of the U.S. healthcare system. Few government-sponsored programs other than PACE bring together the Medicare and Medicaid benefit for these individuals, creating further barriers to delivering coordinated care. Dual-eligible beneficiaries are among the most medically complex, high-frequency users of healthcare services. Based on InnovAge data as of June 30, 2023, the typical InnovAge participant had, on average, eleven chronic conditions and, based on the data most recently available to us from a 2021 modified health outcomes survey, required, on average, assistance with two or more activities of daily living (“ADLs”). A lack of coordination across providers can have severe consequences given the high occurrence of chronic illnesses and other underlying health issues in this population.
Prevalence of wasteful spending and sub-optimal outcomes. A 2019 study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, estimated that approximately 25% of all annual healthcare spending is for unnecessary services, excessive administrative costs, fraud and other inefficiencies creating waste.
Proper management of chronic conditions and targeted interventions to mitigate challenges presented by social determinants of health can significantly reduce the incidence of acute episodes, which are the main driver of emergency room visits and hospitalization among the dual-eligible senior population. Healthcare spending on nursing care facilities and continuing care retirement communities was expected to reach approximately $201.4 billion in 2023, based on the latest projections made by the Office of the Actuary of CMS, which is a 1.9% increase compared to the 2023 projection from the prior year. Similar to spend on hospitals and other high-acuity care settings, we believe many of these dollars can ultimately be saved by providing proactive treatment and investing in proper medical and social supports to enable frail seniors to live in their homes and communities.
Despite high levels of spending, the U.S. healthcare system struggles to produce better health outcomes and delivers low levels of patient and provider satisfaction.
Payment structures are evolving to address healthcare issues. Policymakers and healthcare experts generally acknowledge that the fee-for-service model is not designed to deliver on the “triple aim” of providing low-cost, high-quality care while improving the patient experience. Historically, healthcare delivery was oriented around reactive care for acute events, which resulted in the development of a fee-for-service payment model. By linking payments to the volume of encounters and pricing for higher complexity interventions, the fee-for-service model does not incentivize providers to practice preventative medicine or manage patients in lower cost settings. Rather, many policymakers and healthcare experts

believe it unintentionally creates the opposite result—acute, episodic care delivered in high-cost settings that unnecessarily drive up the total cost of healthcare.
High-cost, dual-eligible seniors often require proactive, coordinated care plans to address their medical acuity, need for long term support and risks related to social determinants of health. Without personalized, patient-centered care that removes barriers to preventative or other early treatment, high-cost, dual-eligible seniors would continue to likely over-utilize healthcare in higher-cost settings, such as emergency rooms and nursing homes.
Government payors have responded by incentivizing a transition to value-based reimbursement models for dual-eligible seniors. A recent example of this has been the growth of the PACE program.
PACE is a government-sponsored, provider-led managed care program focused on enabling frail, dual-eligible seniors who have skilled nursing needs to age independently in their homes. PACE providers receive a monthly risk-adjusted payment for each participant (PMPM) directly from Medicare and Medicaid to oversee the totality of medical care an enrolled participant needs. Fully capitated models, such as PACE, incentivize organizations to better manage chronic conditions to avoid high-cost acute episodes and to invest in services that fall outside the scope of a fee-for-service model. These services, such as care coordination and ancillary support to remove barriers created by social determinants of health, can have a significant impact on a participant’s overall health.
InnovAge participants are, on average, more complex and medically fragile than other Medicare-eligible patients, including those in average Medicare Advantage (“MA”) programs. As a result, we receive larger payments for our participants compared to MA participants. This is driven by two factors: (i) we provide care for a higher acuity population, with an average Medicare Risk Adjustment Factor (“RAF”) score of 2.46 based on InnovAge data as of June 30, 2023, compared to an average RAF score of 1.08 for Medicare fee-for-service non-dual enrollees, as calculated in an analysis by Avalere Health in June 2020 of a cohort of individuals enrolled in Medicare Fee-for-Service in 2019, and (ii) we have Medicaid spend in addition to Medicare. Our comprehensive care model and globally capitated payments are designed to cover participants from enrollment until the end of life, including coverage for participants requiring hospice and palliative care.
The successful clinical approaches of PACE helped inform certain aspects of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation’s Global and Professional Direct Contracting (“GPDC”) Model which began in 2021. The GPDC Model is an alternative Accountable Care Organization (“ACO”) model that aims to create value-based payment arrangements directly with provider groups for their current Medicare fee-for-service patients. By transitioning from fee-for-service arrangements to value-based payments, CMS expects healthcare providers will be financially incentivized to simultaneously improve quality while lowering the cost of care and focusing on patient experience, as is done in PACE today.
Legacy healthcare delivery infrastructure has been slow to transition from fee-for-service to value-based care models. In order for the shift to value-based payment models to drive meaningful results, we believe there must be a corresponding shift in care delivery models. While there has been significant investment by providers, payors and technology companies in developing solutions to enable higher-quality and lower-cost care, the healthcare industry is still heavily reliant on fee-for-service reimbursement models.
The COVID-19 pandemic amplified several flaws in the current legacy healthcare delivery system. Traditional healthcare providers faced dwindling fee-for-service visits during the stay-at-home orders, government restrictions and general patient fear of medical settings. This not only reduced revenues for traditional providers, but also strained their ability to provide necessary care for their patients. Patients in long-term care facilities, such as nursing homes, also saw a disproportionately high infection rate as a result of the pandemic. The highly contagious nature of the virus that causes COVID-19 combined with the higher mortality rate in frail seniors created devastating conditions that led to many avoidable deaths.
Providers that operate comprehensive value-based models, like us, were better positioned to quickly pivot their care delivery approach to safely treat patients in virtual and home-based settings without losing any revenue. PACE participants had one-third the COVID-19 cases and deaths compared to the rates of nursing home residents as of June 30, 2021, according to an analysis performed by The New York Times. We believe the COVID-19 pandemic further highlighted the need for integrated, multimodal value-based care delivery models.
Our Market Opportunity
We are one of the largest healthcare platforms focused on frail, dual-eligible seniors, serving participants primarily through our PACE program. We have built the largest PACE-focused operation in the country based on number of

Table of Contents
participants; we are 16% larger than the size of our closest PACE-focused competitor, more than 30 times larger than the typical PACE operator and the only for-profit PACE operator with a footprint in three or more states. Given our scale across geographies, we believe we are positioned to capitalize on a significant market opportunity to provide care to frail, high-cost, dual-eligible seniors.
Our care model targets the most complex, frail subset of the dual-eligible senior population. We estimated our target population at approximately 2.2 million in 2022 based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau from 2018, representing seniors who we believe are dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid and meet the nursing home eligibility criteria for PACE. We expect to prioritize growth in high-density urban and suburban areas, where there are sizable numbers of frail dual-eligible seniors who would benefit most from our program. We leverage the InnovAge Platform (as defined herein) which is designed to provide comprehensive, coordinated healthcare to enable our frail, eligible for skilled nursing seniors to live independently in their homes and communities. We believe people want to stay in their home for as long as possible, and the InnovAge Platform is designed to empower seniors to age independently in their own homes, on their own terms, for as long as possible.
Based on historical results for the year ended June 30, 2023 and our experience and industry knowledge, we estimate an average annual revenue opportunity of $107,000 per participant (or $8,900 PMPM) and a total addressable market opportunity of $235 billion, based on our estimated market of approximately 2.2 million PACE eligible in the United States in 2022, as described above. Of these estimated PACE eligible participants, only approximately 70,000 are enrolled in a PACE program, based on a July 2023 report from the National PACE Association, and over the next five years, the National PACE Association is targeting a PACE enrollment increase at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of approximately 21%. As a result, we believe that, subject to our ability to effectively execute our growth strategy, we have a substantial opportunity to bring our comprehensive value-based model of care to more frail, dual-eligible seniors across the country.
The InnovAge Platform
Our participant-centered approach is tailored to address the complex medical and social needs of our frail dual-eligible senior population. We leverage the InnovAge Platform to deliver comprehensive, coordinated healthcare to our participants. The InnovAge Platform consists of (1) our Interdisciplinary Care Teams (“IDTs”) and (2) our community-based care delivery model. The key attributes of the InnovAge Platform include:
Our participant focus. Our model is focused on caring for frail, high-cost, dual-eligible seniors. Our target participant population is the frail, nursing home-eligible subset of dual-eligible seniors to whom we refer as “high-cost, dual-eligibles” given their high healthcare acuity and the associated high level of spend. Our participants are among the most frail and medically complex individuals in the U.S. healthcare system. Based on InnovAge data as of June 30, 2023, the typical InnovAge participant had, on average, eleven chronic conditions and, based on the data most recently available to us from a 2021 modified health outcomes survey, required, on average, assistance with two or more ADLs. As a result, the average InnovAge participant has a Medicare RAF of 2.46 based on InnovAge data as of June 30, 2023, compared to an average RAF score of 1.08 for Medicare fee-for-service non-dual enrollees, as calculated in an analysis by Avalere Health in June 2020 of a cohort of individuals enrolled in Medicare Fee-for-Service in 2019. A higher RAF score indicates poorer health and higher predicted healthcare costs. Our platform is designed to enable participants to exercise their preference to age independently in their homes and stay active in their communities for as long as safely possible. All of our participants are certified as nursing home-eligible. As of June 30, 2023, 90% of our participants are able to live safely in their homes and communities.
Our interdisciplinary care teams. The IDT structure is core to our clinical model. Our IDTs oversee all aspects of each participant’s unique care plan and function as the core group of care providers to our participants. Our IDT structure is designed to enhance access to care for our participants and eliminate information silos and gaps in care that frequently occur in a fee-for-service model. We are responsible for all of our participants’ medical care, and we direct care delivery across multiple settings. We deliver individualized care for each participant that addresses both his or her specific medical conditions and social determinants of health. We deliver or manage primary and specialist care, in-home care, hospital visits, nutrition, transportation to and from our care centers and to other medical appointments, pharmacy and behavioral health. We leverage a technology suite, which we believe is powered by industry-leading clinical and operational information technology solutions to collect and analyze data, streamline IDT workflows and empower our teams with timely participant insights that improve outcomes.
Each IDT convenes, at a minimum, experts across at least 11 disciplines to collectively manage the complex care needs of each participant. IDTs are typically comprised of a primary care provider, registered nurse, master’s level social worker, physical therapist, occupational therapist, recreational therapist or activity coordinator, dietician, center manager, home care coordinator, personal care attendant and driver. The IDTs meet multiple times per week to discuss each

participant’s care plan and closely monitor key clinical metrics to ensure each participant receives optimal treatment based on his or her current conditions.
Our community-based care delivery model. Our high-touch model delivers care across a continuum of community-based settings. Our multimodal approach leverages (1) the care center, (2) the home and (3) virtual care capabilities to deliver comprehensive care to our participants. Our capitated payment model gives us the flexibility to invest in care coordination, transportation and other services to mitigate challenges presented by participants’ social determinants of health, regardless of what is traditionally covered by insurance. As a result, our capabilities are not limited to what we are able to offer inside of our centers.
Our community-based care centers. Our purpose-built community-based care centers are designed for the specific needs of our target population and serve as a medical and social hub for our participants. Our participants often spend the full day in these centers receiving medical treatment, meals and physical therapy and socializing with peers. Our care centers are larger than those of most other comparable care organizations and include dedicated spaces for medical care, physical therapy, behavioral health and dentistry, in addition to day-rooms and dining spaces for socialization among our participants. We incorporate population-specific design elements, such as grab bars and rounded hallways, to accommodate the frailty and the prevalence of dementia among our participant population. The size and design of our centers enable us to deliver a significant portion of our participants’ care in one location, simplifying the healthcare experience for participants and their families.
Our in-home care capabilities. Our in-home care capabilities are designed to enable our participants to live safely in their homes and avoid nursing homes to the extent safely possible. We directly deliver or manage all skilled and unskilled care a participant may require to live independently at home. Additionally, we have dedicated strategic partnerships with “hospital-at-home” providers to deliver acute care in-home when appropriate. In addition, we manage transportation not only to and from our centers, but also to all third-party medical appointments. Our capitated payment model gives us the flexibility to invest in home modifications, such as ramps, grab bars and shower chairs, to reduce falls and make the home safer for our seniors. We believe our presence in our participants’ homes gives us real-time insight into our participants’ health and enables us to positively influence many environmentally-driven social determinants of health.
Our virtual care capabilities. Our virtual care capabilities give us the flexibility to deliver medical care and social services virtually when appropriate. Our physicians are equipped with several telehealth platforms to provide virtual care and utilize the option best suited for each individual participant’s preferences and needs. We offer telehealth visits when clinically indicated, allowed per regulations and more convenient for the participant. Our aim is to make virtual care access simple and convenient for our participants.
Addressing social determinants of health. Our care delivery model is designed to provide services that mitigate challenges presented by participants’ social determinants of health, such as:
Economic stability
Transportation
Physical environment
Community and social context
Food and nutrition
Health literacy
Fitness
Our technology suite. Our fully capitated care model is operationally complex; it requires coordination among dozens of different providers per participant, real-time integration of clinical data from disparate sources and predictive analytics to enable effective interventions. We license a suite of third-party clinical technologies that we use to create a comprehensive view of our participants’ health, empowering our IDTs to make optimal care decisions. We leverage what we believe to be industry-leading reporting and predictive analytics solutions to collect and analyze data, stratify our population and uncover actionable participant insights.
Recent Audit Processes and Remediation Efforts
We are regularly subject to, and will continue to be subject to, various routine and non-routine governmental inspections, reviews and audits. Starting in 2021, we underwent federal and state audits in our centers in Sacramento, California, Colorado and New Mexico. Based on deficiencies detected in the audits related to participant provision of services, which can be categorized as care delivery and management, care coordination and documentation of care, CMS and regulatory authorities in the states of California and Colorado suspended new enrollments at our Sacramento center in

California and our centers in Colorado. We were fully released from those sanctions in Colorado in January 2023 and in California in May 2023. The Company’s priority continues to be to remediate the deficiencies raised in audit processes and to implement post-sanction corrective actions as required, as well as maintain high quality of regulatory compliance in all its centers. Through the audit processes, we worked on mission-critical people, process, and technology gaps identified as causes of the audit deficiencies and strengthened our center operations throughout our portfolio. Although the Company continues post-sanction monitoring, the Company is currently able to enroll new participants at its 17 centers and also expects to responsibly pursue growth opportunities through opening de novo centers and/or pursuing tuck-in acquisitions and partnerships.
Our Value Proposition
We believe that our healthcare model is one where all constituencies involved, including participants, their families, providers and government payors, have the ability to “Win.”
Our participants “Win” by enjoying a better participant experience, improved health outcomes and remaining in their homes and communities for longer. We leverage our differentiated care delivery model to improve the health of our participants and help them avoid unnecessary hospitalizations and nursing home care. We enable our participants to remain in their homes as long as possible and age independently. As a result, as of June 30, 2023, approximately 90% of our participants lived in their preferred setting: their home or community. We believe our care model also delivers better clinical outcomes: our participants have fewer hospital admissions, fewer low- to medium-severity emergency room visits and lower 30-day hospital readmission rates. Our care model is not “one size fits all,” it is customized to the unique needs of each participant, which benefits participant health and increases participant satisfaction with our program.
Families “Win” as we reduce their caregiving burden and provide “peace of mind”. We significantly reduce the caregiving burden on the families of our participants. Our model handles all transportation to and from medical appointments and center visits, helps participants with ADLs, and creates social outlets for participants to reduce isolation. Most importantly, we believe we offer “peace of mind” to our participants’ families who know their loved one’s complex needs are cared for. “Friends and family” of participants remain one of our largest referral sources for recruiting new participants.
Our providers “Win” as they are able to focus on improving the lives of their participants. We enable our providers to focus on taking care of participants by providing them with meaningful clinical and administrative support. We remove the pressure of trying to optimize visit volume by rewarding quality, not quantity, of care. We estimate that our providers (1) have a smaller number of participants to care for and spend more time with each participant than providers in similar care organizations, and (2) benefit from the support of a multidisciplinary team.
Government payors “Win” through fiscal certainty and lower costs. We believe we provide fiscal certainty through our capitated payment arrangements and reduce the cost of both medical and long-term support and services for high-cost, dual-eligible seniors. Costs under the PACE program were estimated to be 15% lower on average than for a comparable dual-eligible population aged 65 and older under Medicaid, based on an analysis of available data by the National PACE Association in July 2023.
Our Growth Strategy
Increase participant enrollment and capacity within existing centers
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, our participant census was approximately 6,400 across our 17 centers in five states. We are now able to enroll participants at all of our centers and are gradually increasing enrollments in our Sacramento, California center and in our centers in Colorado. We also intend to increase the utilization of capacity at our existing centers.
Build de novo centers
We believe de novo centers generate compelling long-term unit economics and the potential for robust internal rates of return.
We have operated our platform across different geographies and we expect to prioritize a list of target markets that we believe are optimal environments to launch the InnovAge Platform. We are currently pursuing the licensure required to open two de novo centers in Tampa and Orlando in Florida and another one in Downey, California.
Our approach to de novo developments includes building centers to our experience-based specifications, with flexibility for future center expansion factored into the blueprints where possible.

Execute tuck-in acquisitions and partnerships
From fiscal year 2019 through fiscal year 2021, we have acquired and integrated three PACE organizations, expanding into one new state and four new markets through those acquisitions. By bringing acquired organizations under the InnovAge Platform, we hope to further realize revenue growth and improve operational efficiency and care delivery post-integration.
We believe there is a robust landscape of potential tuck-in acquisitions to supplement our organic growth. Since the Company was released from sanctions, we have recommenced our efforts to pursue tuck-in acquisitions. We remain disciplined in our approach to acquisitions, including with respect to the types of organizations we seek. We are focused on seeking organizations with experienced personnel, demonstrated quality service and compliance scores, compelling financial results and growth expectations.
We also intend to pursue relationships with key stakeholders, existing organizations and other care providers in order to form partnerships in target geographies.
Reinvest in the InnovAge Platform to optimize performance
We believe that our ongoing investment in the InnovAge Platform drives greater efficiency across our business, creating a virtuous cycle that allows us to continue providing necessary care to our participants. Our platform is the largest among PACE providers based on participants served and one of the most geographically diverse.
We plan to continually invest in technology improvements and seek to unlock new insights through enhanced data analytics capabilities that will advance our care model.
We have begun to invest in building capabilities to increase our sophistication as a payor to drive clinical value, improve outcomes, and manage cost trends.
We believe our investments will ultimately result in better health outcomes and lower medical costs for participants. In the long-term, we intend to reduce medical costs in order to generate savings for reinvestment to support continuous improvement of the InnovAge Platform.
Regulation
Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local governmental laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require us to meet various standards relating to, among other things, arrangement and provision of covered healthcare services to our participants, operation and management of PACE centers, dispensing of pharmaceuticals, personnel qualifications, maintenance of proper records, and quality assurance programs. If any of our operations are found to violate applicable laws or regulations, we could suffer severe consequences that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, reputation and stock price, including:
suspension, termination or exclusion of our participation in government payor programs;
loss of our licenses required to operate healthcare facilities or administer prescription drugs in the states in which we operate;
criminal or civil liability, fines, damages or monetary penalties for violations of healthcare fraud and abuse laws, including the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, Civil Monetary Penalties Law, the False Claims Act (“FCA”) and/or state analogs to these federal enforcement authorities, or other regulatory requirements;
enforcement actions by governmental agencies and/or state law claims for monetary damages by patients or employees relating to breach of, impermissible use or disclosure of, or other incident relating to protected health information (“PHI”) and other types of personal data or personally identifiable information (collectively, “PII” and, together with PHI, “PHI/PII”) that we collect, use, and disclose, in violation of federal or state health privacy laws, including, for example and without limitation, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended by HIPAA, the CCPA as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”), other state data privacy and security laws, and the Privacy Act of 1974;
mandated changes to our practices or procedures that significantly increase operating expenses or decrease our revenue;
imposition of and compliance with corporate integrity agreements that could subject us to ongoing audits and reporting requirements as well as increased scrutiny of our business practices which could lead to potential fines, among other things;
termination of various relationships and/or contracts related to our business, including joint venture arrangements, contracts with government payors, and real estate leases or contracts with clinical providers;
changes in and reinterpretation of rules and laws by a regulatory agency board, or court, such as state corporate practice of medicine laws, that could affect the structure and management of our business;
7

Table of Contents
changes in payor reimbursement, including negative adjustments to government payment models including, but not limited to, Medicare Parts C and D and Medicaid; and
harm to our reputation, which could negatively impact our business relationships, the terms of government payor contracts, our ability to attract and retain participants, physicians, and other clinicians, our ability to obtain financing and our access to new business opportunities, among other things.
We expect that our industry will continue to be subject to substantial regulation, the scope and effect of which are difficult to predict. Our activities have been and could continue to be subject to investigations, audits and inquiries by various government and regulatory agencies with whom we contract at any time in the future. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Regulation.”
Federal and State Regulation of PACE Providers
We are subject to a complex array of federal and state laws, regulations, and guidance, including legal requirements directly applicable to PACE providers as well as Medicare and Medicaid laws and regulations. These laws and guidance relate to our organizational structure, governance, fiscal soundness, marketing activities, participant enrollment and disenrollment, charges to participants, provision of healthcare and other services to participants, care planning activities, service delivery settings and maintenance of centers, participant rights, employment and contractual arrangements with healthcare providers and other staff, quality assessment and performance improvement activities, participant grievances and appeals, medical records documentation, compliance program activities, and other aspects of our operations and financing. As a PACE provider that provides qualified prescription drug coverage, we are also subject to Medicare laws, regulations, and requirements applicable to Medicare Part D plan sponsors.
The regulations and contractual requirements applicable to PACE providers are complex and subject to change, making it necessary for us to invest significant resources in complying with these requirements. Scrutiny through federal and state government audits, oversight and enforcement and the highly technical regulatory scheme in which we operate require us to allocate significant resources to our compliance efforts. In addition, new centers that we may acquire in the future may have less developed compliance and quality infrastructures, which may require us to allocate additional resources to making any required enhancements.
CMS and state regulatory authorities regularly audit our performance to determine our compliance with CMS’s regulations and our contracts with CMS and state authorities, and to assess the quality of the services we provide to our participants. Such audits have in the past, and may in the future, result in the identification of deficiencies in connection with our compliance with regulatory requirements, participant quality of care, care plan development and implementation, grievance and appeal processes, clinicians acting outside of their scope of practice, and other issues. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Regulation” for a description of recent audits in the States of California, Colorado, and New Mexico. We expect these audits to continue in the future.
Whether identified through such audits or other avenues, our failure to comply with the federal and state laws applicable to our business has and may continue to result in significant or material retroactive adjustments to and/or withholding of capitation payments, fines, criminal liability, civil monetary penalties, requirements to make significant changes to our operations, corrective action plans, CMS imposed sanctions (including suspension or exclusion from participation in government programs), loss of contracts, or cessation of our services.
Licensing Laws
We, our healthcare professionals, and our centers are subject to various state and local licensure and certification requirements in connection with our provision of healthcare and other services. Specifically, in some of the states in which we operate, we are required to maintain licensure or certification as an adult day health center, home health or home care provider, diagnostic and treatment center, pharmacy provider, clinical laboratory and/or other type of facility, and our affiliated physicians and other clinicians also must be licensed or certified, as applicable, in the states in which they are providing services. We, our healthcare professionals and our centers are also subject to a variety of other state laws and regulations, relating to, among other things, the quality of medical care, equipment, privacy of health information, physician relationships, and qualifications of our personnel, and our operations. In addition to state requirements, we, our centers, and our healthcare professionals are in some cases subject to federal licensing and certification requirements, such as certification or waiver under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 for performing laboratory services and Drug Enforcement Administration registrations for prescribing, storing, and dispensing controlled substances. In addition, certain of the states where we currently operate regulate the operations and financial condition of risk bearing providers and impose capital requirements, licensing or certification, governance controls, and other obligations. While the states in which we operate do not currently impose these regulations on entities solely bearing risk under the PACE
8

Table of Contents
program, these states may seek to license or otherwise regulate our operations and financial solvency in the future; further, states in which we expand in the future may impose similar requirements on our operations.
Failure to comply with federal, state and local licensing and certification laws, regulations and standards could result in a variety of consequences, including cessation of our services, loss of our contracts, prior payments by payors being subject to recoupment, requirements to make significant changes to our operations, or civil or criminal penalties. We routinely take the steps we believe are necessary to retain or obtain all requisite licensure and operating authorities. While we endeavor to comply with federal, state and local licensing and certification laws and regulations and standards as we interpret them, the laws and regulations in these areas are complex, changing and often subject to varying interpretations. Any failure to satisfy applicable laws and regulations could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and reputation.
Corporate Practice of Medicine
The laws and regulations relating to our operations vary from state to state, and some states in which we operate prohibit general business corporations, such as us, from practicing medicine, directly employing physicians, controlling physicians’ or other clinicians’ medical decisions, or engaging in some practices such as splitting professional fees with physicians or other clinicians. In certain states, we contract with physicians to provide healthcare services that are required to be provided by licensed physicians to comply with such requirements. While we believe that we are in substantial compliance with state laws prohibiting the corporate practice of medicine, regulatory agencies and other parties may assert that we could be engaged in the corporate practice of medicine. Further, many such state laws are often vague or have otherwise only been infrequently interpreted by courts or regulatory agencies and are subject to change. The consequences associated with violating corporate practice of medicine laws vary by state and may result in physicians or other clinicians being subject to disciplinary action, as well as forfeiture of revenues from government payors for services rendered. However, if allegations are successfully asserted before the appropriate judicial or administrative forums, we could be subject to adverse judicial or administrative penalties, certain of our contracts could be determined to be unenforceable, and we may be required to restructure our organization or our contractual arrangements. Any allegations or findings that we have violated these laws could have a material adverse impact on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.
See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business—Laws regulating the corporate practice of medicine could restrict the manner in which we are permitted to conduct our business, and the failure to comply with such laws could subject us to penalties or require a restructuring of our business.”
Federal Anti-Kickback Statute
The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting, or receiving remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or kind, to induce or reward either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any good or service, for which payment may be made under federal and state healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Court decisions have held that the statute may be violated even if only one purpose of remuneration is to induce referrals. In addition, the Affordable Care Act (the “ACA”) amended the federal Anti-Kickback Statute to clarify that a defendant need not have actual knowledge of, or the specific intent to violate, the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in order to have the requisite intent to support an Anti-Kickback Statute violation.
Federal criminal penalties for the violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute include imprisonment, fines and exclusion of the provider from future participation in federal healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute are punishable by imprisonment for up to ten years, fines of up to $100,000 per kickback or both. Larger fines can be imposed upon corporations under the provisions of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and the Alternate Fines Statute. Individuals and entities convicted of a criminal violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute are subject to mandatory exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal healthcare programs for a minimum of five years. Civil penalties for violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute include up to $112,131 in monetary penalties per violation, fines, or penalties of up to three times the total payments between the parties to the arrangement and potential exclusion from participation in Medicare and Medicaid. In addition, the ACA amended the federal Anti-Kickback Statute to provide that any claims for items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute are considered false or fraudulent for purposes of the FCA, which is further discussed below.
The federal Anti-Kickback Statute includes statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors that protect certain arrangements. These exceptions and safe harbors are voluntary. To receive safe harbor protection, business transactions and arrangements must meet all the requirements of a safe harbor. However, transactions and arrangements that do not satisfy
9

Table of Contents
all elements of a relevant safe harbor do not necessarily render the arrangement per se illegal. When an arrangement does not satisfy a safe harbor, the arrangement must be evaluated upon all facts and circumstances, on a case-by-case basis in light of among other things, the parties’ intent, and the arrangement’s potential for abuse. Arrangements that do not satisfy a safe harbor may be subject to greater scrutiny by enforcement agencies.
Additionally, some states have enacted statutes and regulations similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which may be applicable regardless of the payor source for the patient. These state laws may contain exceptions and safe harbors that are different from and/or more limited than those of federal law and that may vary from state to state.
We have entered, and may continue to enter, into several arrangements that may not fit squarely within enumerated safe harbors and could potentially implicate the Anti-Kickback Statute if the requisite intent were present, such as:
Joint Ventures. We operate one of our centers, our Sacramento, California center, under a joint venture with a not-for-profit healthcare provider and may enter other joint ventures with providers and payors in the future. The Office of Inspector General (the “OIG”) of the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) has warned healthcare entities in the past that certain joint venture relationships have a potential for abuse. We have endeavored to structure our joint venture to satisfy as many elements of the applicable safe harbor for investments in small entities as we believe are commercially reasonable. For example, we believe that these investments are offered and made by us on a fair market value basis and provide returns to the investors in proportion to their actual investment in the venture.
Discounts. Our centers sometimes acquire certain items and services at a discount that may be reimbursed by a federal healthcare program. We endeavor to structure our vendor contracts that include discount or rebate provisions to comply with the federal Anti-Kickback Statute safe harbor for discounts.
Sales Force and Participant Recruitment. We employ our own sales force and attempt to meet the Anti-Kickback safe harbor for bona fide employment.
As noted in the examples above, we have endeavored to structure our business arrangements to fit within applicable federal Anti-Kickback Statute safe harbors and to otherwise operate in material compliance with the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and state analogs. Many of our arrangements are structured to provide for compensation that is fair market value for services actually rendered and in a manner that does not reflect the volume or value of referrals generated between the parties. In structuring our relationships with providers, including our physician partners, and other healthcare entities, we endeavor to comply with the regulatory requirements of such safe harbors and exceptions.
If any of our business transactions or arrangements, including those described above, were found to violate the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, we could face, among other things, criminal, civil or administrative sanctions, including possible exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other state and federal healthcare programs and FCA liability. Any findings that we have violated these laws could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, reputation and stock price.
As part of HHS’s Regulatory Sprint to Coordinated Care, OIG issued a request for information in August 2018 seeking input on regulatory provisions that may act as barriers to coordinated care or value-based care, and issued final rules effective January 19, 2021, that amend the Anti-Kickback Statute by adding new safe harbors and modifying existing safe harbors that protect certain payment practices and business arrangements from sanctions under the Anti-Kickback Statute in order to remove potential barriers to more effective coordination and management of patient care and delivery of value-based care. Among other changes, the new regulations contain safe harbors for value-based arrangements centering around value-based enterprises, which are enterprises, such as ours, composed of participants collaborating to achieve one or more value-based purposes, including coordinating, and managing the care of a target patient population and coordinating and managing the care of a target population. These modifications may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Federal Self-Referral Prohibition
The federal Ethics in Patient Referral Act (“Stark Law”) generally prohibits a physician who has (or whose immediate family member has) a financial relationship with certain types of entities from making referrals to that such entities for “designated health services” if payment for the services may be made under Medicare or Medicaid. “Designated health services” include clinical laboratory services, inpatient and outpatient hospital services, physical and occupational therapy services, outpatient speech-language pathology services, certain radiology services, radiation therapy services and supplies, durable medical equipment and supplies, parenteral and enteral nutrients equipment and supplies, prosthetics, orthotics and prosthetic devices and supplies, home health services, and outpatient prescription drugs. To the extent we fall within the
10

Table of Contents
types of entities to which the Stark Law applies, then we need to ensure that any financial relationships that we have with a referring provider would satisfy a statutory or regulatory exception to the Stark Law prohibition.
Providers are prohibited from billing Medicare and Medicaid for services related to a prohibited referral and a provider that has billed for prohibited services is obligated to notify and refund the amounts collected from the Medicare program or to make a self-disclosure to CMS under its Self-Referral Disclosure Protocol. Penalties for violation of the Stark Law include denial of payment, recoupment, refunds of amounts paid in violation of the law, exclusion from the Medicare or Medicaid programs, and substantial civil monetary penalties ($27,750 per prohibited item or service and $185,009 if there is a circumvention scheme; penalty amounts reflect current 2022 levels and are adjusted for inflation from time to time). Claims filed in violation of the Stark Law may be deemed false claims under the FCA. In addition to the Stark Law, various states in which we operate have adopted their own self-referral prohibition statutes.
As part of the Regulatory Sprint, CMS also issued a sweeping set of regulations that introduce significant new value-based terminology and exceptions to the Stark Law. CMS has implemented new exceptions for certain remuneration exchanged between or among eligible participants in value-based arrangements. These exceptions and their various requirements apply based on the level of risk assumed by the arrangement’s participants. These new regulations purport to ease the compliance burden for healthcare providers across the industry while maintaining strong safeguards to protect patients and programs from fraud and abuse. It is not yet clear what impact these new rules will have on our business.
The False Claims Act
Among other things, the FCA authorizes the imposition of up to three times the government’s damages and significant per claim civil penalties on any “person” (including an individual, organization or company) who, among other acts:
knowingly presents or causes to be presented to the federal government a false or fraudulent claim for payment or approval;
knowingly makes, uses or causes to be made or used a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent claim;
knowingly makes, uses or causes to be made or used a false record, report or statement material to an obligation to pay the government, or knowingly conceals or knowingly and improperly avoids or decreases an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the federal government; or
conspires to commit the above acts.
The federal government has used the FCA to prosecute a wide variety of alleged false claims and fraud allegedly perpetrated against Medicare and state healthcare programs, including but not limited to coding errors, billing for services not rendered, the submission of false cost or other reports, billing for services at a higher payment rate than appropriate, billing under a comprehensive code as well as under one or more component codes included in the comprehensive code, billing for care that is not considered medically necessary and false reporting of risk-adjusted diagnostic codes, encounter data or other information used to determine capitated payments. As noted above, the ACA provides that claims for payment that are tainted by a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute (which could include, for example, illegal incentives or remuneration in exchange for enrollment or referrals) are false for purposes of the FCA. In addition, amendments to the FCA and Social Security Act impose severe penalties for the knowing and improper retention of overpayments from government payors. This could be relevant to our business the extent we receive payments on account of RAF determinations that are based on improper or erroneous records or reports. Failure to return overpayments could subject us to liability under the FCA, exclusion from government healthcare programs and penalties under the federal Civil Monetary Penalty Statute.
The penalties for a violation of the FCA may include per claim penalties, plus up to three times the amount of damages caused by each false claim, which can be as much as the amounts received directly or indirectly from the government for each such false claim. As of January 30, 2023, the minimum False Claims Act penalty increased from $12,537 to $13,508 per claim. The maximum penalty has increased from $25,076 to $27,018 per claim.
In addition to civil enforcement under the FCA, the federal government can use several criminal statutes to prosecute persons who are alleged to have submitted false or fraudulent claims for payment to the federal government. Private parties initiate qui tam whistleblower lawsuits against any person or entity under the FCA in the name of the federal government, as well as under the false claims’ laws of several states, and may share in the proceeds of a successful suit. Generally, federal and state governments have made investigating and prosecuting healthcare fraud and abuse a priority. Any allegations or findings that we have violated the FCA could have a material adverse impact on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.
11

Table of Contents
In addition to the FCA, the various states in which we operate have adopted their own analogs of the FCA. States are becoming increasingly active in using their false claims laws to police the same activities listed above, particularly with regard to capitated government-sponsored healthcare programs, such as Medicaid managed care and PACE. Under Section 6031 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, as amended, if a state enacts a false claims act that is at least as stringent as the federal statute and that also meets certain other requirements, the state will be eligible to receive a greater share of any monetary recovery obtained pursuant to certain actions brought under the state’s false claims act. As a result, more states are expected to enact laws that are similar to the federal FCA in the future along with a corresponding increase in state false claims enforcement efforts.
For additional information regarding allegations against us under Federal and State FCA statutes, see Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business—We are subject to legal proceedings, enforcement actions and litigation, malpractice and privacy disputes, which are costly to defend and could materially harm our business and results of operations.”
Civil Monetary Penalties Statute
The Civil Monetary Penalties Statute, 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7a, authorizes the imposition of civil monetary penalties, assessments and exclusion against an individual or entity based on a variety of prohibited conduct, including, but not limited to:
presenting, or causing to be presented, claims, reports or records relating to payment by Medicare, Medicaid or other government payors that the individual or entity knows or should know are for an item or service that was not provided as reported, is false or fraudulent or was presented for a physician’s service by a person who knows or should know that the individual providing the service is not a licensed physician, obtained licensure through misrepresentation or represented certification in a medical specialty without in fact possessing such certification;
offering remuneration to a federal healthcare program beneficiary that the individual or entity knows or should know is likely to influence the beneficiary to order or receive healthcare items or services from a particular provider, unless an exception applies;
arranging contracts with or making payments to an entity or individual excluded from participation in the federal healthcare programs or included on CMS’s preclusion list;
violating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute;
making, using or causing to be made or used a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent claim for payment for items and services furnished under a federal healthcare program;
making, using or causing to be made any false statement, omission or misrepresentation of a material fact in any application, bid or contract to participate or enroll as a provider of services or a supplier under a federal healthcare program; and
failing to report and return an overpayment owed to the federal government.
We could be exposed to a wide range of allegations to which the federal Civil Monetary Penalty Statute would apply. We perform monthly checks on our employees and certain affiliates and vendors using government databases to confirm that these individuals have not been excluded from federal programs or otherwise ineligible for payment. We have also implemented processes to ensure that we do not make payments to contracted or noncontracted providers listed on CMS’s preclusion list nor make payments for drugs prescribed by individuals on the preclusion list. However, should an individual or entity be excluded, on the preclusion list, or otherwise ineligible for payment and we fail to detect it, a federal agency could require us to refund amounts attributable to all claims or services performed or sufficiently linked to such individual or entity. Due to this area of risk and the possibility of other allegations being brought against us, we cannot foreclose the possibility that we could face allegations of noncompliance with the Civil Monetary Penalty Statute that have the potential for a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Privacy and Security
HIPAA requires covered entities, and the business associates with whom such covered entities contract for services involving the use or disclosure of protected health information to provide certain protections to our participants and their health information. Through our various service offerings, the Company acts primarily as a covered entity under HIPAA, but may also act as a business associate of other covered entities. The HIPAA privacy and security regulations extensively regulate the use and disclosure of PHI and require covered entities and their business associates, to develop and maintain policies and maintain policies and procedures with respect to PHI that is used to disclosed and implement and maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the security of such information. Additional security
12

Table of Contents
requirements apply to electronic PHI. These regulations also provide our participants with substantive rights with respect to their health information.
The HIPAA privacy and security regulations also require covered entities to enter into written agreements with their business associates. Covered entities may be subject to fines, penalties for, among other activities, failing to enter into a business associate agreement where required by law or as a result of a business associate violating HIPAA, if the business associate is found to be an agent of the covered entity and acting within the scope of the agency. Business associates are also directly subject to liability under certain HIPAA privacy and security regulations. In instances where we act as a business associate to a covered entity, there is the potential for additional liability beyond our status as a covered entity.
Covered entities must notify affected individuals of breaches of unsecured PHI without unreasonable delay but no later than 60 days after discovery of the breach by a covered entity or its agents. Reporting must also be made to the HHS Office for Civil Rights (“OCR”) and, for breaches of unsecured PHI involving more than 500 residents of a state or jurisdiction, to the media in accordance with HIPAA requirements. All impermissible uses or disclosures of unsecured PHI are presumed to be breaches unless an exception to the definition of breach applies or the covered entity or business associate establishes that there is a low probability the PHI has been compromised. Additionally, on December 1, 2022, OCR issued guidance on the use of tracking technologies on websites and mobile applications by covered entities and business associates, indicating that certain information collected by tracking technology vendors from websites and applications may cause a breach under HIPAA.
Violations of HIPAA by covered entities and business associates, including, but not limited to, failing to implement appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards, have resulted in enforcement actions and in some cases triggered settlement payments or civil monetary penalties. Penalties for impermissible use or disclosure of PHI were increased by the HITECH Act by imposing tiered penalties of more than $50,000 (not adjusted for inflation) per violation and up to approximately $1.9 million (not adjusted for inflation) per year for identical violations. In addition, HIPAA provides for criminal penalties of up to $250,000 and ten years in prison, with the severest penalties for obtaining and disclosing PHI with the intent to sell, transfer or use such information for commercial advantage, personal gain or malicious harm. Further, state attorneys general may bring civil actions seeking either injunction or damages in response to violations of the HIPAA privacy and security regulations that threaten the privacy of state residents. There can be no assurance that we will not be the subject of an investigation (arising out of a reportable breach incident, audit or otherwise) alleging non-compliance with HIPAA regulations in our maintenance of PHI.
We may also be subject to other laws governing the privacy and security of data, such as the CCPA and data breach notification laws. Additionally, many states also enacted laws that protect the privacy and security of confidential, personal and health information, which may be even more stringent than HIPAA and may add additional compliance costs and legal risks to our operations. Some state privacy and security laws overlap with federal law, some of which are preempted, in part by federal laws, whereas others are not. States have also passed privacy and security laws and regulations that apply across sectors and go beyond federal law, such as data security laws, secure destruction, Social Security number privacy, online privacy biometric information privacy, and data breach notification laws. Some of these state laws impose fines and penalties on violators and afford private rights of action to individuals who believe their personal information has been misused. Various state laws and regulations also require us to notify affected individuals in the event of a data breach involving personal information without regard to the probability of the information being compromised.
Looking ahead, it is possible that the American Data Privacy and Protection Act (“ADPPA”), a landmark federal privacy bill with significant bipartisan support, may gain traction. Although ADPPA would not apply to health data covered by HIPAA, it would apply to other health data, such as health data controlled by certain entities in the digital health space.
Various other federal and state laws restrict the use and protect the privacy and security of individually identifiable information, as well as employee personal information, including certain state laws modeled to some extent on the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation. Federal and state consumer protection laws, including laws that do not on their face specifically address data privacy or security, have been applied to data privacy and security matters by a range of government agencies and courts.
Healthcare Reform Efforts
The U.S. federal and state governments continue to enact and seriously consider many broad-based legislative and regulatory proposals that have had a material impact on or could materially impact various aspects of the healthcare system and our business, operating results and/or cash flows. In addition, state and federal budgetary shortfalls and constraints pose potential risks for our revenue streams. We cannot predict how government payors or healthcare consumers might

Table of Contents
react to federal and state healthcare legislation and regulation, whether already enacted or enacted in the future, nor can we predict what form such legislation or regulations will take. Some examples of legislative and regulatory changes impacting our business include:
In March 2010, broad healthcare reform legislation was enacted in the United States through the ACA. There have since been numerous political and legal efforts to repeal, replace or modify the ACA, some of which have been successful, in part, in modifying the law. Although some provisions of the ACA have been and may be modified, the reforms, particularly those relating to Medicare and Medicaid programs, could continue to have an impact on our business. These and other provisions of the ACA remain subject to ongoing uncertainty due to developing regulations as well as continuing political and legal challenges at both the federal and state levels.
There have in recent years been congressional efforts to move Medicaid from an open-ended program with coverage and benefits set by the federal government to one in which states receive a fixed amount of federal funds, either through block grants or per capita caps, and have more flexibility to determine benefits, eligibility or provider payments. If these types of changes are implemented in the future, we cannot predict whether the amount of fixed federal funding to the states will be based on current payment amounts, or if it will be based on lower payment amounts, which would negatively impact those states that expanded their Medicaid programs in response to the ACA.
Legislation enacted in 2011 requires CMS to sequester or reduce all Medicare payments, including payments to PACE organizations, by two percent per year for a period of years.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 includes a few provisions intended to lower the costs of some drugs covered under Medicare Part D and to limit Medicare beneficiaries’ out-of-pocket spending under the Medicare Part D benefit. It is not yet clear what effect, if any, these legislative changes and any subsequent implementing regulations and guidance will have on our business.
The “Medicare Program; Contract Year 2024 Policy and Technical Changes to the Medicare Advantage Program, Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit Program, Medicare Cost Plan Program, and Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly” final rule (“PACE Final Rule”) set out a number of changes for PACE organizations, including (i) clarifying that CMS has enforcement discretion to impose civil monetary penalties or an intermediate sanction in the event CMS has made a determination that could lead to the termination of a PACE program; and (ii) reinstating the requirement that PACE organizations to enter into written contracts with each outside organization, agency, or individual that furnishes administrative or care-related services not furnished directly by the PACE organization, including 25 medical specialties enumerated by the PACE Final Rule.
While there may be significant changes to the healthcare environment in the future, the specific changes and their timing are not yet apparent. Specifically, changes in Medicare and Medicaid could lower PACE rates or increase our expenses. Proposed December 27, 2022, the PACE Final Rule proposed rule included many changes to the current PACE regulations, including consideration of past performance when evaluating PACE organizations’ applications to offer a new PACE program or expand an existing PACE program. While such changes were not implemented for 2024, we anticipate many such provisions affecting PACE organizations may be addressed for fiscal year 2025 by CMS. Any failure to successfully implement strategic initiatives that respond to future legislative, regulatory, and executive changes could have a material adverse effect on government-sponsored PACE programs, our business, results of operations and financial condition.
CMS and state Medicaid agencies also routinely adjust the RAF which is central to payment under PACE and Managed Medicaid programs in which we participate. The monetary “coefficient” values associated with diseases that we manage in our population are subject to change by CMS and state agencies. Such changes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business — Our records and submissions to government payors may contain inaccurate or unsupportable information regarding risk adjustment scores of participants, which could cause us to overstate or understate our revenue and subject us to payment obligations or penalties.”
Other Regulations
Our operations are subject to various state hazardous waste and non-hazardous medical waste disposal laws. These laws do not classify as hazardous most of the waste produced from medical services. Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations require employers to provide workers who are occupationally subject to blood or other potentially infectious materials with prescribed protections. These regulatory requirements apply to all healthcare facilities, including our community centers, and require employers to make a determination as to which employees may be exposed to blood or other potentially infectious materials and to have in effect a written exposure control plan. In addition, employers are required to provide or employ hepatitis B vaccinations, personal protective equipment and other safety
14

Table of Contents
devices, infection control training, post-exposure evaluation and follow-up, waste disposal techniques and procedures and work practice controls. Employers are also required to comply with various record-keeping requirements.
Federal and state law also governs the purchase, handling, and dispensing of controlled substances by physicians and other clinicians. If we are unable to maintain our registrations this could limit or affect our ability to purchase, handle, or dispense controlled substances and other violations of these laws could subject us to criminal or other sanctions. In addition, certain laws may apply to activities of our affiliated physicians and clinicians. For example, the Prescription Drug Marketing Act governs the provision of drug samples to physicians and other clinicians, and physicians and other clinicians are required to report relationships they have with the manufacturers of drugs, medical devices and biologics through the Open Payments Program database.
Clinical laboratories may be subject to oversight by CMS and state regulators, including the Eliminating Kickbacks in Recovery Act of 2018. If our laboratories or laboratories that we partner with are not in compliance with the applicable CMS or state laws or regulations, they could be subject to enforcement action, which could negatively affect our business.
We have in the past and continue to intend to grow our business through acquisitions in the states in which we currently operate or in new states that we seek to enter. Several states, including California, have adopted laws focused on competition, quality, access, and cost that authorize state agencies to review and approve healthcare transactions, and many other states, including Pennsylvania, are considering similar legislation. Such laws may negatively affect our ability to grow our business.
Any allegations or findings that we or our providers have violated any of these laws or regulations could have a material adverse impact on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition. Certain states in which we do business or may desire to do business in the future have certificate of need programs regulating the establishment or expansion of healthcare facilities, including our community centers. These regulations can be complex and time-consuming to ensure compliance with. Any failure to comply with such regulatory requirements could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Trademarks and Intellectual Property
Although we own trademarks and service marks such as “InnovAge,” which are protected under applicable intellectual property laws and are the property of us or our subsidiaries, we do not currently believe our intellectual property is material to our business.
Competition
The U.S. healthcare industry is highly competitive. We compete directly with national, regional and local providers of healthcare for participants and clinical providers. We also compete with payors and other alternate managed care programs for participants. Of these providers, there are many other companies and individuals currently providing healthcare services, many of which have been in business longer and/or have substantially more resources. Given the regulatory environment, there may be high barriers to entry for PACE providers; however, since there are relatively modest capital expenditures required for providing healthcare services, there are less substantial financial barriers to entry in the healthcare industry generally. Other companies could enter the healthcare industry in the future and divert some or all of our business. Our principal competitors for dual-eligible seniors vary considerably in type and identity by market. Our growth strategy and our business could be adversely affected if we are not able to compete efficiently, including penetrating existing markets or new markets, recruit qualified physicians or if we experience significant participant attrition to our competitors. See Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—The healthcare industry is highly competitive and, if we are not able to compete effectively, our business could be harmed.”
We believe the principal competitive factors for serving adults dually-eligible for Medicare and Medicaid and who meet nursing home eligibility criteria include: participant experience, quality of care, health outcomes, total cost of care, brand identity and trust in that brand.
Seasonality
Our business experiences some variability depending upon the time of year. Medical costs will vary seasonally depending on a number of factors, but most significantly the weather. Certain illnesses, such as the influenza virus and COVID-19, are far more prevalent during colder months of the year, which results in an increase in medical expenses during these time periods. We therefore see higher levels of per-participant medical costs in our second and third fiscal quarters. Medical costs also depend upon the number of business days in a period, and shorter periods will have lower
15

Table of Contents
medical costs. Business days can also create year-over-year comparability issues if a period in one year has a different number of business days compared to the same period in another.
In addition, the retrospective capitation payments we receive for each participant are determined by a participant’s RAF score, which is calculated twice per year and is based on the evolving acuity and chronic conditions of a participant. We estimate and accrue for the expected true-up payments of our participants. Though no assurances can be made in the future, we have historically used our best estimate for accruing for this payment, and we received net positive true-up payments during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Historically, these true-up payments typically occur between May and August, but the timing of these payments is determined by CMS, and we have neither visibility nor control over the timing of such payments.
Human Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately 2,100 employees, including 1,200 clinical professionals (excluding contract labor). We consider our relationship with our employees to be good. None of our employees are unionized or party to a collective bargaining agreement.
Our people are our product at InnovAge, and their commitment to our participants propels our mission of enabling seniors to age at home, with dignity, for as long as is safely possible. We believe that our employees are drawn to this mission and our values, which is why our voluntary retention rate was 64.7% over fiscal year 2023. Additionally, in our most recent employee engagement survey conducted in April 2022, 73% of our employees indicated that they feel engaged by their work at InnovAge.
Attracting and retaining top talent is critical to the success of InnovAge's mission and one of the highest priorities to leadership. To keep leadership informed of the health of our employee base, we report weekly on key hiring and retention metrics. We launched employee engagement surveys in fiscal year 2022, and we are implementing action plans with all staff groups based on survey findings and opportunities uncovered. We intend to monitor progress by releasing multiple engagement surveys at least annually.
We continue to evaluate talent needs at the senior management level, aiming to hire ahead of the curve as the business evolves and to assess and respond to any gaps in our capabilities.
Diversity
At InnovAge, we strive to be a reflection of the diverse communities that we serve. We are steadfastly dedicated to fostering an atmosphere that champions diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout all sectors of InnovAge. Our commitment remains in building a culture where individual distinctions are not just acknowledged but deeply valued.
In our previous engagement survey from April 2022, 79.2% of employees indicated that they feel that they can be their authentic selves at work. As part of our continuous journey to engage and understand our teams better, we plan to conduct our annual engagement survey during September 2023. We look forward to our employees’ invaluable feedback, as it plays a pivotal role in shaping our collective future.
As of June 30, 2023, our employed workforce was comprised of individuals who identified as women – 77%, and minorities – 49%. Five of nine members of our executive leadership team identify as women as of June 30, 2023.
Training and Development
We aim to provide our employees opportunities to grow and advance in their careers at InnovAge with learning and development programs. Each year we conduct soft skills training for managers and supervisors, the content of which is informed by gap assessment surveys. A quarterly training series for front-line leaders enables them to develop their management skills. Our clinical leaders also conduct separate physician leadership trainings quarterly, with a new topic for each installment (e.g., email / phone etiquette).
We also conduct a periodic training needs assessment surveys to hear directly from employees and managers where they think they could use more support and learning content in the coming year. These assessment surveys, allow the Company to develop trainings tailored to the most prevalent needs identified by our employees.

Implications of being an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) June 30, 2026, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. Additionally, we qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” and even after we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company,” we may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company” based on the aggregate worldwide market value of common equity securities held by non-affiliates assessed on an annual basis and measured as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.
As an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company, we may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:
not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);
a requirement to present only two years of audited financial statements, plus unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim period and related discussion in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and
exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under the JOBS Act until we are no longer an emerging growth company. Our election to use the phase-in periods permitted by this election may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the longer phase-in periods permitted under the JOBS Act and who will comply with new or revised financial accounting standards. If we were to subsequently elect instead to comply with public company effective dates, such election would be irrevocable pursuant to the JOBS Act.
As a result, the information that we provide to our shareholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
Our business, results of operations, and financial condition are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. You should carefully consider the following risk factors before making a decision to invest in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that affect us. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. You should read these risk factors in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 7 and our consolidated financial statements and related notes in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Summary of Risk Factors
There are a number of risks related to our business, regulation, our indebtedness and our common stock that you should consider. Some of the principal risks related to our business include the following:
Our growth strategy may not prove viable. Our ability to grow depends upon a number of factors, including future audits, investigations and remediation efforts, recruiting new participants, finding suitable geographies that have aging populations and viable rate structures, entering into government payor arrangements in new jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements, identifying appropriate locations or existing centers, purchasing centers or obtaining leases, completing build-outs of new centers within proposed timelines and budgets and hiring members of our IDTs and other employees. Additionally, our growth strategy is dependent upon our ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions.
We face inspections, reviews, audits and investigations under federal and state government programs and contracts. As a result of PACE contracts with CMS and state government agencies, state licenses and participation in Medicaid, we are regularly subject to various routine and non-routine governmental inspections, reviews, audits, requests for information and investigations to verify our compliance with applicable laws and regulations, assess the quality of our services provided to our participants and evaluate the accuracy of the risk adjustment data we submit. During fiscal years 2022 and 2023, we were subject to sanctions precluding the enrollment of new participants at our centers in Sacramento, California and Colorado due to deficiencies found in such audits. Even though the deficiencies have been remediated and the sanctions have been lifted, we continue post-sanction corrective work. We may be subject to future audits and sanctions and are unable to guarantee the outcomes of any such audits.
We are subject to legal proceedings, enforcement actions and litigation, malpractice and privacy disputes, which are costly and could materially harm our business. We are party to lawsuits and legal proceedings from employees, participants and their estates and various third parties in the normal course of business. These matters are often expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. We are currently subject to civil investigative demands and stockholder lawsuits, among other matters. There can be no assurance that these matters are resolved in our favor or without significant cash settlements. The time and resources necessary to litigate the claims could harm our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and market price of our common stock.
We have and expect to continue experiencing increased costs and expenditures in the future. In fiscal year 2023, we launched and conducted several initiatives intended to lower certain of our costs. However, we expect to continue to have increased costs in the foreseeable future. We may not succeed in increasing our revenue sufficiently to improve our profit margins and if we are not able to execute or realize the benefits of our clinical value initiatives, our profitability could continue to decline.
Under our PACE contracts, we assume all of the risk that the cost of providing services will exceed our compensation. Approximately 99.8% and 99.7% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, was derived from capitation agreements with government payors in which we receive fixed PMPM fees. To the extent that our participants require more care than is anticipated and/or the cost of care increases, aggregate fixed capitation payments may be insufficient to cover the costs associated with treatment. If, in aggregate, our expenses exceed the underlying capitation payment received, we will not be able to fund operations and pursue growth.
Our revenues and operations are dependent upon a limited number of government payors, particularly Medicare and Medicaid. When aggregating the revenue associated with Medicare and Medicaid by state, Colorado, California and Virginia accounted for a total of approximately 83.0% and 83.3% of our capitation
18

Table of Contents
revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We expect a majority of our revenues will continue to be derived from a limited number of key government payors, which may terminate their contracts with us upon the occurrence of certain events. The sudden loss of any of our government contracts or the renegotiation of any of our contracts could adversely affect our operating results and limit our ability to expand into new markets.
Reductions in PACE reimbursement rates or changes in the rules governing PACE programs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We receive a substantial portion of our revenue through the PACE program, which accounted for 99.8% and 99.8% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As a result, our operations are dependent on government funding levels for PACE programs. Any changes that limit or reduce general PACE rates could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our records and submissions to government payors may contain inaccurate or unsupportable information regarding risk adjustment scores of participants, which could cause us to overstate or understate our revenue and subject us to payment obligations or penalties. The submission of erroneous data could result in inaccurate revenue and risk adjustment payments, which may be subject to correction or retroactive adjustment in later periods. CMS may audit PACE organizations’ risk adjustment data submissions. We could be required to refund a portion of the revenue that we received, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Renegotiation, non-renewal or termination of capitation agreements with government payors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. If we enter into capitation contracts with unfavorable economic terms, or a capitation contract is adjusted to include unfavorable terms, we could suffer losses with respect to such contract. In addition, some states in which we operate undergo periodic reconciliations with respect to enrollments that present a risk to our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Allegations of failure and failure to adhere to complex government laws and regulations that apply to our business, have had and could in the future have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, reputation and stock price. Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local government laws and regulations. Allegations of violation, or actual violations of the legal requirements implicated by our business may have material adverse consequences on our business.
Ignite Aggregator LP (an investment vehicle owned by certain funds advised by Apax Partners LLP) and funds affiliated with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (together, our “Principal Shareholders”) control us, and their interests may conflict with ours or yours in the future. Our Principal Shareholders beneficially own approximately 86% of our common stock, which means that together they control the vote of all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and all other corporate decisions. For such period of time as our Principal Shareholders beneficially own a majority of the voting power, they will have significant influence with respect to our business.
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict and could cause such results to fall below any guidance we provide. If the guidance we provide falls short or we are unable to meet the expectations of analysts or investors, the trading price of our common stock could decline substantially.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our growth strategy may not prove viable, and we may not realize expected results therefrom.
Starting in May 2021, we underwent federal and state audits in our centers in California, Colorado and New Mexico. The audits in our centers in Sacramento, California and in Colorado led to sanctions precluding the enrollment of new participants. In addition, as a result of these audits, we were unable to continue, or voluntarily suspended, de novo projects in various states as well as the execution of tuck-in acquisitions. Having resolved the deficiencies identified in the audits and following the release of the sanctions, our priority, after post-sanction corrective work and maintaining high quality service across all our centers, is to return to growth in the mid- to long-term. We are seeking growth opportunities both
19

Table of Contents
organically by increasing utilization of capacity at our centers or building de novo centers, and through acquisitions and partnerships, the availability and success of which may be impacted by factors outside of our control.
Our ability to grow depends upon a number of factors, including future audits, investigations and ongoing or new remediation efforts, recruiting new participants, finding suitable geographies that have aging populations and viable rate structures, entering into government payor arrangements in new jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements, identifying appropriate locations or existing centers, purchasing centers or obtaining leases, completing build-outs of new centers within proposed timelines and budgets and hiring members of our IDTs and other employees. If we are unable to increase participant enrollment, increase utilization of capacity at our centers, build de novo centers, manage our external provider costs, expand into new geographies, or find, evaluate and execute on new business opportunities, we may be unable to grow and our business and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.
Our growth strategy involves a number of risks and uncertainties, including that:
we may be subject to sanctions as a result of other audits and other regulatory processes and proceedings that could include temporary or permanent suspension of enrollments (such as the recent audits to our centers in Sacramento, California and Colorado), debarment or exclusion from participation in federal health care programs, and the revocation of a center’s license, which may in turn result in participant attrition and preclude us from opening de novo centers and conducting tuck-in acquisitions;
we may not be able to successfully enter into contracts with government payors and/or other healthcare providers on terms favorable to us or at all. In addition, we compete for government payor relationships with other potential players, some of whom may have greater resources than we do. This competition may intensify due to the ongoing consolidation in the healthcare industry, which may increase our costs to pursue such opportunities;
we may not be able to recruit or retain a sufficient number of new participants to execute our growth strategy or offset costs relating to recruiting new participants;
we may not be able to hire sufficient numbers of physicians and other clinical staff, particularly if there is a heightened demand for healthcare personnel or labor shortage, including as a result of macroeconomic conditions or an epidemic, pandemic or other health emergency, such as the COVID-19 pandemic;
when expanding our business into new states, we may be required to comply with laws and regulations that may differ from states in which we currently operate;
we may face larger than expected costs and legal, community or other obstacles in the construction and opening of de novo centers or expanding capacity in existing centers; and
we may have difficulty identifying appropriate acquisition targets, be precluded from acquiring targets as a result of the recent sanctions or due to other legal restrictions (e.g. federal or state antitrust laws), may fail to satisfy closing conditions or make investments in acquisitions that we are unable to effectively integrate, involve associated risks or liabilities that we are unable to uncover in advance, or that require greater resources than anticipated and that could include deficient quality of service.
In addition, as we grow our business and open or acquire new centers, we expect to continue to increase our headcount and to hire or contract with more physicians, nurses and other specialized medical personnel. We will need to continue to hire, train and manage additional qualified information technology, operations and marketing staff, and improve and maintain our technology and information systems to properly manage our growth. If our new hires perform poorly, if we are unsuccessful in hiring, training, managing and integrating these new employees, if we are not successful in retaining our existing employees, or if we are unable to provide the care and services that our participants require in compliance with regulatory requirements, our business may be adversely affected.
Additional risks include, but are not limited to, our ability to effectively manage growth, process, store, protect and use personal data in compliance with governmental regulations and contractual obligations and manage our obligations as a provider of healthcare services under Medicare, Medicaid and PACE.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully capitalize on growth opportunities, which will negatively impact our business, revenues, results of operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents
Our growth strategy is partially dependent upon our ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions.
A significant element of our growth strategy is to identify, pursue and successfully complete and integrate tuck-in acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic partnerships to expand our operations. From fiscal year 2019 through fiscal year 2021, we acquired and integrated three PACE organizations, expanding into one new state and four new markets through those acquisitions. Since the Company was released from sanctions, we have recommenced our efforts to pursue tuck-in acquisitions. We remain disciplined in our approach to acquisitions, including with respect to the types of organizations we seek. We are focused on seeking organizations with experienced personnel, demonstrated quality service and compliance scores, compelling financial results and growth expectations We also intend to pursue relationships with key stakeholders, existing organizations and other care providers in order to form partnerships in target geographies.
However, acquisitions and other strategic transactions, such as joint ventures, involve numerous risks, including failure to consummate negotiated transactions, difficulties in successfully integrating the operations and personnel, navigating the necessary regulatory approval requirements, distraction of management from overseeing, and disruption of, our existing operations, difficulties in entering new markets in which we have no or limited direct prior experience, and difficulties in achieving the synergies we anticipated. In addition, we incur costs associated with potential acquisitions that we pursue or fail to close, including as a result of litigation related to a failed transaction. We also may need to expend resources to ensure target and acquired centers are operating in compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements, as well as any corrective action plans. Any failure to select suitable opportunities at fair prices, conduct appropriate due diligence, acquire and successfully integrate the acquired center, including particularly when acquired centers operate in new geographic markets, could materially and adversely impact our growth strategies, financial condition and results of operations.
These transactions may also cause us to significantly increase our interest expense, leverage and debt service requirements if we incur additional debt to pay for an acquisition or investment, issue common stock that would dilute our current stockholders’ percentage ownership or incur asset write-offs and restructuring costs and other related expenses that could have a material adverse impact on our operating results. Acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic investments also involve numerous other risks, including potential exposure to assumed litigation, as well as undetected internal control, regulatory or other issues, or additional costs not anticipated at the time the transaction was completed.
If we are unable to attract new participants and retain existing participants, our revenue growth will be adversely affected.
To increase our revenue, our business strategy is to expand the number of centers and participants in our network. In order to support such growth, we must recruit and retain a sufficient number of new participants. Our ability to do so was affected in fiscal years 2022 and 2023 as a result of the enrollment sanctions we were subject to in the states of California and Colorado. Going forward, we are gradually increasing enrollments in our Sacramento, California center and in our centers in Colorado, which we expect may continue to impact our revenue growth in the near-term. We also expect to increase our sales and marketing efforts, which are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations that impact marketing. As a result of the sanctions and deficiencies identified during recent audits of our centers, our reputation has been harmed, which has impacted and could in the future continue to impact our ability to retain and attract new participants. We are focused on frail, dual-eligible senior population and face competition from other healthcare providers and payors in the recruitment of potential participants. Therefore, we must demonstrate that our services provide a viable solution for potential participants. If we are unable to convince the frail, dual-eligible senior population of the benefits of the InnovAge Platform or if potential or existing participants prefer the healthcare provider model of one of our competitors, we may not be able to effectively implement our growth strategy, which depends on our ability to attract new participants. Participant enrollment for PACE is ongoing each month and requires states to verify eligibility, a process which can result in delays in enrollment. Our inability to identify and recruit new eligible participants and retain existing participants has and could continue to harm our ability to execute our growth strategy and has and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business operations and financial position.
We face inspections, reviews, audits and investigations under federal and state government programs and contracts. These audits require corrective actions and have resulted in adverse findings that have negatively affected and continue to affect our business, including our results of operations, liquidity, financial condition and reputation.
As a result of our PACE contracts with CMS and state government agencies, state licenses, and participation in Medicaid, we are regularly subject to, and will continue to be subject to, various routine and non-routine governmental inspections, reviews, audits, requests for information and investigations to verify our compliance with requirements of these programs and applicable laws and regulations, assess the quality of the services we are providing to our participants, and evaluate the accuracy of the risk adjustment data we have submitted to the government.

Starting in 2021, we underwent federal and state audits in our centers in California, Colorado and New Mexico. Based on deficiencies detected in the audits related to participant provision of services, which can be categorized as care delivery and management, care coordination and documentation of care, CMS and regulatory authorities in the states of California and Colorado suspended new enrollments at our Sacramento center in California and our centers in Colorado. In addition, as a result of the enrollment sanctions, the States of California, Kentucky and Indiana took actions to suspend our ability to open de novo centers in those states, and we committed to regulatory agencies in the State of Florida, that we would proactively pause remaining steps with respect to planned de novo centers in that state. Largely as a result of these sanctions and actions, our census decreased from approximately 6,850 participants as of June 30, 2021 to 6,400 as of June 30, 2023. We were fully released from the enrollment sanctions in Colorado in January 2023 and in California in May 2023, and have resumed enrollments in those States. In Florida and California, we are moving forward with pursuit of licensure required to open a PACE center in each of Tampa and Orlando, and in Downey. Since the Company was released from sanctions, in Florida, we have received our Adult Day Care Center (“ADCC”) licenses from the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (“AHCA”) in both Tampa and Orlando. We have completed our onsite State Readiness Review (“SRR”) inspection in Tampa and are working with AHCA to schedule the onsite SRR inspection for Orlando. In California, we have worked with the California Department of Health Care Services (“DHCS”) to resume our application in Downey, California. In Kentucky and Indiana, there continues to be uncertainty as to whether we will be able to pursue those opportunities. In addition, we continue post-sanction monitoring work required by the states of Colorado, and the time, effort and expenses related to the post-sanction monitoring continue to be significant. Audits have and may continue to increase our regulatory compliance costs and have required and may require further change to our business practices, which could negatively impact our participant and revenue growth. Managing audits, even if we achieve favorable outcomes, is costly, time-consuming and diverts management’s attention from our business.
Our centers will continue to be subject to federal and state audits, including our centers that underwent the recent audits described above, as well as the centers that did not and centers we open or acquire in the future. Even though we are applying, and expect to apply, best practices learned from our recent audits to all our centers, including those centers we acquire, there is no guarantee that future audits will not find deficiencies similar to, or different from, the ones found in connection with the our recent audits.
In general, inspections, reviews, audits, requests for information or investigations with adverse findings, and in particular the audits described above, have resulted in and may further result in:
temporary or permanent enrollment sanctions in the affected center(s), as was the case with our Sacramento, California center and our centers in the State of Colorado;
refunding amounts we have been paid by the government;
state or federal agencies imposing corrective action plans, fines, penalties, training, policies and procedures, monitoring, and other requirements;
temporary suspension of payments;
debarment or exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs;
self-disclosure of violations to applicable regulatory authorities;
damage to our reputation;
the revocation of a center’s license; and
loss of certain rights under, or termination of, our contracts with government payors.
Any of the results noted above could have further material adverse effects on our business and operating results. Furthermore, the legal, document production and other costs associated with complying with these inspections, reviews, audits, requests for information or investigations is significant. If we are unable to effectively remediate the deficiencies raised by any audits, implement corrective action plans, or otherwise satisfy the regulators’ concerns, we could be subject to new sanctions, and our business, financial results and operations could be adversely impacted.

We are subject to legal proceedings, enforcement actions and litigation, malpractice and privacy disputes, which are costly to defend and could materially harm our business and results of operations.
We are party to lawsuits and legal proceedings in the normal course of business from participants, employees, or other third parties for various actions. These matters are often expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. We face or may face allegations, lawsuits, including class actions, and regulatory inquiries, requests for information, audits and investigations regarding care and services provided to participants, the FCA, data privacy, security, labor and employment, consumer protection or intellectual property. We also face or may face allegations or litigation related to our potential and completed acquisitions, securities issuances or business practices, including public disclosures about our business. On October 14, 2021, and subsequently amended on June 21, 2022, the Company was named as a defendant in a putative class action complaint filed in the District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of individuals who purchased or acquired shares of the Company’s common stock during a specified period. In addition, on April 20, 2022, the Board of Directors received a books and records demand pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, from a purported stockholder of the Company and on May 15, 2023, the stockholder filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery asserting derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty against certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors generally relating to alleged failures by the defendants to take remedial actions to address the matters that resulted in sanctions by CMS and alleged misstatements in the Company’s public filings relating to those matters. On June 28, 2023, upon stipulation of the parties, the court entered an order staying this litigation pending the resolution of the motion to dismiss in the October 14, 2021 proceedings, or upon fifteen days’ notice by any party to the litigation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of these matters. See Part I, Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” for more information.
Litigation and regulatory proceedings are protracted and expensive, and the results are difficult to predict. Certain of these matters include claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages and may include claims for injunctive relief. Additionally, our litigation costs are and will continue to be significant. Adverse outcomes with respect to any of the legal proceedings described above or other litigation may result in significant settlement costs or judgments, penalties, fines and sanctions. In the third fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company agreed to settle a wage and hour class action lawsuit in the State of California for a cash payment of $1.2 million. The agreement is subject to court approval. Managing legal proceedings, regulatory inquiries, litigation and audits, even if we achieve favorable outcomes, is costly, time-consuming and diverts management’s attention from our business.
The results of regulatory proceedings, investigations, inquiries, litigation, claims, and audits cannot be predicted with certainty, and determining reserves for pending litigation and other legal, regulatory and audit matters requires significant judgment and assumptions. There can be no assurance that our expectations will prove correct, and even if these matters are resolved in our favor or without significant cash settlements, these matters, and the time and resources necessary to litigate or resolve them, cause harm to our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common stock.
We are also subject to lawsuits under the FCA and comparable state laws for submitting allegedly fraudulent, inadequately supported or otherwise inappropriate bills for services to the Medicare and Medicaid programs. These lawsuits, which may be initiated by government authorities as well as private party relators, can involve significant monetary damages, fines, attorney fees and the award of bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring these suits, as well as to the government programs. In recent years, government oversight and law enforcement have become increasingly active and aggressive in investigating and taking legal action against potential fraud and abuse.
In July 2021, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Attorney General for the State of Colorado under the Colorado Medicaid False Claims Act. The demand requests information and documents regarding Medicaid billing, patient services and referrals in connection with the Company’s PACE program in Colorado. We continue to fully cooperate with the Attorney General and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.
In February 2022, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) under the Federal False Claims Act on similar subject matter. The demand requests information and documents regarding audits, billing, orders tracking, and quality and timeliness of patient services in connection with the Company’s PACE programs in the states where the Company operates (California, Colorado, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Virginia). In December 2022, the Company received a supplemental civil investigative demand from the DOJ requesting supplemental information on the same matters. We continue to fully cooperate with the DOJ and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.

Furthermore, our business exposes us to potential medical malpractice, professional negligence or other related actions or claims that are inherent in the provision of healthcare services. These claims, whether or not they have merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs, and could place a significant strain on our financial resources, divert the attention of management from our core business, harm our reputation and adversely affect our ability to attract and retain participants, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Although we maintain third-party professional liability insurance coverage, it is possible that claims against us may exceed the coverage limits of our insurance policies. Even if any professional liability loss is covered by an insurance policy, these policies typically have substantial deductibles for which we are responsible. Professional liability claims in excess of applicable insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any professional liability claim brought against us, whether or not they have merit, could result in an increase of our professional liability insurance premiums. Insurance coverage varies in cost and can be difficult to obtain, and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain insurance coverage in the future on terms acceptable to us or at all. If our costs of insurance and claims increase, then our earnings could decline.
Under our PACE contracts, we assume all of the risk that the cost of providing services will exceed our compensation.
Approximately 99.8% and 99.7% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, was derived from capitation agreements with government payors in which we receive fixed PMPM fees. While there are variations specific to each agreement, we generally contract with government payors to receive a fixed PMPM fee to provide or manage all healthcare services a participant may require while assuming financial responsibility for the totality of our participants’ healthcare expenses. This type of contract is often referred to as an “at-risk” or a “capitation” contract.
To the extent that our participants require more care than is anticipated and/or the cost of care increases, aggregate fixed capitation payments may be insufficient to cover the costs associated with treatment. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the risk pool of our population became more acute as we were not able to replenish our population mix with newer, lower-acuity participants as a result of enrollment sanctions, and as a result, our external provider costs and cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, represented approximately 85% of our revenue in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. If medical costs and expenses exceed the underlying capitation payment received, we will not be able to correspondingly increase our capitated payment and we could suffer losses with respect to such agreements.
Changes in our anticipated ratio of medical expense to revenue can significantly impact our financial results. Accordingly, the failure to adequately predict and control medical costs and expenses, execute or realize the benefits of our clinical value initiatives, and to make reasonable estimates and maintain adequate accruals for incurred but not reported claims, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Additionally, the Medicare and Medicaid expenses of our participants may be outside of our control in the event that participants take certain actions that increase such expenses, such as emergency room visits or preventable hospital admissions.
Historically, our medical costs and expenses as a percentage of revenue have fluctuated. Factors that may cause medical expenses to exceed estimates include:
the health status of participants requiring higher levels of care, such as nursing home care or higher incidents of hospitalization;
higher than expected utilization of new or existing healthcare services;
more frequent catastrophic medical cases (e.g. transplants);
an increase in the cost of healthcare services and supplies, whether as a result of inflation, wage increases, purchases of vaccines and PPE as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, other health emergencies, or otherwise;
emergence of new high-cost medications to treat conditions that are common in our population, such as lecanemab for Alzeimer’s Dementia;
changes to mandated benefits or other changes in healthcare laws, regulations and practices;
increased costs attributable to specialist physicians, hospitals and ancillary providers;
changes in the demographics of our participants and medical trends;

contractual or claims disputes with providers, hospitals or other service providers;
the occurrence of catastrophes, health emergencies, including epidemics or pandemics or acts of terrorism; and
the reduction of government payor payments.
We have and expect to continue experiencing increased costs and expenditures in the future.
The federal and state audits and sanctions we were subject in our centers in California and, Colorado and the federal and state audits in New Mexico, not only impacted our revenue and growth opportunities, but also our level of costs and expenditures. In fiscal year 2023, we launched and conducted several initiatives intended to lower certain of our costs, including limiting corporate staffing, effecting a reduction in workforce, and optimizing working capital. However, we have and expect to continue making significant investments in growing our business and increasing our participant base, building capabilities to increase our sophistication as a payor to drive clinical value, improve outcomes, and manage cost trends, expanding our operations, hiring additional employees for growing or new centers, introducing or improving technology, and operating as a public company. As a result of these increased expenditures, we may not succeed in increasing our revenue sufficiently to improve our profit margins. To date, we have financed our operations principally from revenue from our participant services, the incurrence of indebtedness, and the sale of our equity in the IPO. We may not continue to generate positive cash flow from operations or have access to sufficient capital, and our limited operating history as a for-profit company may make it difficult for you to rely on our historical results as indicative of future performance. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing and highly regulated industries, including increasing expenses as we continue to grow our business.
Our operating expenses have and we expect them to continue to increase over the next several years as we continue to hire additional personnel, expand our operations and infrastructure, and continue to provide services to an increasing number of participants. If we are not able to execute or realize the benefits of our clinical value initiatives, our profitability could continue to decline. In addition to the expected costs to grow our business, we also expect to continue to incur compliance costs, as a result of sanctions and maintaining high quality of care across our centers, as well as additional legal, accounting and other expenses as we continue to establish the Company as a public company. These investments may be more costly than we expect, and if we do not achieve the benefits anticipated from these investments, or if the realization of these benefits is delayed, our profitability could continue to decline. If our growth rate were to decline significantly or become negative, it could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. If we are not able to maintain positive cash flow in the long term, we may require additional financing, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all and/or which would be dilutive to our stockholders. If we are unable to successfully address these risks and challenges as we encounter them, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. Accordingly, we may not be able to be profitable or improve our income in the future, which could negatively impact the value of our common stock.

Our overall business results have been and may continue to be impacted by ongoing macroeconomic and COVID-19-related challenges, including labor shortages and inflation.
Macroeconomic challenges, including labor shortages and high inflation, have impacted and may continue to impact our business operations and our overall business results. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated difficulties to hire healthcare professionals, and in fiscal year 2022, we experienced workforce and labor shortages within all of our centers. Even though this labor pressure eased slightly in fiscal year 2023, we continue to be affected by the increased competition in the labor market and market adjustments to increase retention and improve our ability to hire. These market adjustments contributed, in part, to an increase in cost of care and operating expenses for fiscal year 2023, further impacted by additional staffing related to compliance and remediation efforts. Continued workforce and labor shortages or increased wages, may continue to adversely affect our financial results. Further, if labor market conditions continue to disrupt our ability to recruit healthcare professionals , we may not be able to execute our growth plan and grow capacity in our existing centers or open de novo centers or we may have to do so at costs higher than originally budgeted, which, in turn, could increase our capital needs during a time of rising interest rates and when conditions in the credit and capital markets are volatile.
During periods of high unemployment, governmental entities often experience budget deficits as a result of increased costs and lower than expected tax collections. These budget deficits at federal, state and local government entities have decreased, and may continue to decrease, spending for health and human service programs, including Medicare, Medicaid,

PACE and similar programs, which represent nearly all of the payor sources for our centers and which may have a material effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our revenues and operations are dependent upon a limited number of government payors, particularly Medicare and Medicaid.
Our operations are dependent on a limited number of government payors, particularly Medicare and Medicaid, with whom we directly contract to provide services to participants. We generally manage our contracts on a state-by-state basis, entering into a separate contract in each state. When aggregating the revenue associated with Medicare and Medicaid by state, Colorado, California and Virginia accounted for a total of approximately 83.0% and 83.3% of our capitation revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We believe that majority of our revenues will continue to be derived from a limited number of key government payors, which may terminate their contracts with us upon the occurrence of certain events, including as a result of inspections, reviews, audits, requests for information or investigations with adverse findings. The sudden loss of any of our government contracts or the renegotiation of any of such contracts could adversely affect our operating results. In the ordinary course of business, we engage in active discussions and renegotiations with government payors in respect of the services we provide and the terms of our agreements. As the states respond to market dynamics and financial pressures, and as government payors make strategic budgetary decisions in respect of the programs in which they participate, certain government payors may seek to renegotiate or terminate their agreements with us. Any reduction in the budgetary appropriations for our services, whether as a result of fiscal constraints due to recession, or economic downturn, emergency situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in policy or otherwise, could result in a reduction in our capitated fee payments, changes to the scope of services and possibly loss of contracts and could negatively impact our revenues, business and prospects. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business—A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the United States or worldwide has and in the future could adversely affect our business” and “Risks Related to Our Business—We conduct a significant percentage of our operations in the State of Colorado and, as a result, we are particularly susceptible to any reduction in budget appropriations for our services or any other adverse developments in that state.”
Because we rely on a limited number of government-funded agencies, namely CMS and state Medicaid agencies, for a significant portion of our revenues, we depend on federal funding, as well as the financial condition of the states in which we operate, and each state’s commitment to its participation in the PACE program. Government-funded healthcare programs in the states in which we operate face a number of risks, including higher than expected healthcare costs and lack of predictability of tax basis and budget needs. If the financial condition of the states in which we operate declines, our credit risk could increase.
Reductions in PACE reimbursement rates or changes in the rules governing PACE programs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We receive a substantial portion of our revenue through the PACE program, which accounted for 99.8% and 99.8% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As a result, our operations are dependent on government funding levels for PACE programs. Any changes that limit or reduce general PACE funding, such as reductions in or limitations of reimbursement amounts or rates under programs, reductions in funding of programs, expansion of benefits, services or treatments under programs without adequate funding, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The PACE programs and their respective reimbursement rates, payment structures and rules are subject to frequent change. These include statutory and regulatory changes, rate adjustments (including retroactive adjustments), administrative or executive orders and government funding restrictions, all of which may materially adversely affect the PACE rates at which we are compensated for our services. Budget pressures can lead federal and state governments to reduce or place limits on reimbursement rates and payment structures under PACE. Implementation of these and other types of measures has in the past and could in the future result in substantial reductions in our revenue and operating margins. Legislation enacted in 2011 requires CMS to sequester or reduce all Medicare payments, including payments to PACE organizations, by 2% per year for a period of years. Subsequent legislation extended these cuts through 2030, which cuts negatively impact our revenue. We cannot predict what other deficit reduction, other payment reduction or budget enforcement initiatives may be proposed by Congress, which could impact our business, including whether Congress will attempt to increase, restructure or suspend sequestration.
Each year, CMS establishes the Medicare PACE benchmark payment rates by county for the following calendar year. Because a substantial portion of our revenue is through the PACE program, any negative changes to the PACE benchmark
26

Table of Contents
payment rates could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, our PACE revenues may become volatile in the future, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Reductions in reimbursement rates could have a material, adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations or even result in rates that are insufficient to cover our operating expenses. For example, our external provider costs are driven by rates set by Medicare and Medicaid, which are outside of our control and may be negotiated in a manner unfavorable to us. Additionally, any delay or default by state governments in funding our capitated payments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Recent legislative, judicial and executive efforts to enact further healthcare reform legislation have caused the future state of reforms under the ACA and many core aspects of the current U.S. healthcare system to be unclear. While specific changes and their timing are not yet apparent, enacted reforms and future legislative, regulatory, judicial, or executive changes, particularly any changes to the PACE program, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our records and submissions to government payors may contain inaccurate or unsupportable information regarding risk adjustment scores of participants, which could cause us to overstate or understate our revenue and subject us to repayment obligations or penalties.
The claims and encounter records that we submit to government payors involve data that support the RAF scores attributable to participants. These RAF scores determine the payment we are entitled for the provision of medical care to such participants. The data submitted to CMS is based on diagnosis codes and medical charts that our employed, contracted, and noncontracted providers identify, record and prepare. Any issues with recording and documenting identified medical conditions could adversely impact Medicare RAF scores and our resulting revenue for future periods. CMS periodically audits PACE organizations’ risk adjustment submissions. The submission of inaccurate, incomplete or erroneous data could result in inaccurate revenue and risk adjustment payments, which may be subject to correction or retroactive adjustment in later periods. This corrected or adjusted information may be reflected in financial statements for periods subsequent to the period in which the revenue was recorded. We could be required to refund a portion of the revenue that we received, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Historically, these true-up payments typically occur between May and August, but the timing of these payments is determined by CMS, and we have neither visibility nor control over the timing of such payments. From time to time, we may experience reconciliation issues as government payors modify or adopt new systems which may be reflected as provision for bad debt in our financial statements.
If CMS seeks repayment from us for payment adjustments as a result of its audits, we could also be subject to liability for penalties for inaccurate or unsupportable RAF scores provided by us or our providers. In addition, we could be liable for penalties to the federal government under the FCA, which may include per claim penalties, plus up to three times the amount of damages caused by each false claim, which can be as much as the amounts received directly or indirectly from the government for each such false claim. As of January 30, 2023, the minimum False Claims Act penalty increased from $12,537 to $13,508 per claim. The maximum penalty has increased from $25,076 to $27,018 per claim. There is a high potential for substantial penalties in connection with any alleged FCA violations.
Elements of the risk adjustment mechanism continue to be challenged, reevaluated, and revised by the U.S. Department of Justice, the OIG, and CMS. On February 1, 2023, CMS published the Medicare Advantage RADV Program Final Rule, which took effect on April 3, 2023. The final rule includes major updates to the Risk Adjustment Data Validation (“RADV”) audit methodology used by CMS to address overpayments to MA plans based on the submission of unsupported risk-adjusting diagnosis codes, which are used to determine payments under MA. Most notably, the final rule allows CMS to extrapolate RADV audit findings beginning with payment year 2018. CMS intends to initiate audits with the new methodology in calendar year 2025 beginning with payment year 2018. If CMS recovers overpayments from MA plans, those plans may seek to recover payments from us that the plans believe are attributable to risk adjustment data.
There can be no assurance that a PACE organization will not be randomly selected or targeted for review by CMS or that the outcome of such a review will not result in a material adjustment in our revenue and profitability, even if the information we submitted to CMS is accurate and supportable. Substantial changes in the risk adjustment mechanism, including changes that result from enforcement or audit actions, could materially affect our capitated reimbursement.

Renegotiation, non-renewal or termination of capitation agreements with government payors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Under most of our capitation agreements with government payors, the state is generally permitted to adjust certain terms of the agreements from time to time. If a government payor exercises its right to adjust certain terms of the agreements, we are generally allowed a period of time to object to such adjustment. If we enter into capitation contracts with unfavorable economic terms, or a capitation contract is adjusted to include unfavorable terms, we could suffer losses with respect to such contract. In addition, some states in which we operate undergo periodic reconciliations with respect to enrollments that present a risk to our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our contracts with government payors may be terminated to the extent that state or federal funds are not appropriated at sufficient levels to fund our contracts or PACE programs in general. Certain of our contracts are terminable immediately upon the occurrence of certain events. Government payors may terminate, suspend or cancel our contracts, in whole or in part, for cause in the event of our noncompliance with the terms, conditions or responsibilities under the contracts, or if we are debarred or suspended from providing services by state or federal government authorities. CMS may also impose sanctions for noncompliance with regulatory or contractual requirements, including the suspension of enrollment of participants, the occurrence of which would adversely affect our operating results and our ability to pursue our growth strategies. If any of our contracts with government payors are terminated or if the government payors seek to renegotiate their contract rates with us, we may suffer a significant loss of revenue, which may adversely affect our operating results.
State and federal efforts to reduce healthcare spending could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Most of our participants are dually-eligible, meaning they are qualified for coverage under both Medicare and Medicaid when enrolled in our PACE program, and nearly all our revenue is derived from government payors. Medicaid is a joint federal and state funded program for healthcare services for low income as well as certain higher-income individuals who qualify for nursing home level of care. Under broad federal criteria, states establish rules for eligibility, services and payment. PACE programs are administered at the state level and are financed by both state and federal funds. Medicaid spending has increased rapidly in recent years, becoming a significant component of state budgets. This increase, combined with slower state revenue growth, has led both the federal government and many states to institute measures aimed at controlling the growth of Medicaid spending, and in some instances reducing aggregate Medicaid spending. Due to budget constraints, including resulting from a potential economic downturn or recession, we may experience negative Medicaid capitated rate payment pressure from certain states where we operate, such as Colorado, where we conduct a significant percentage of our operations.
In addition, as part of past attempts to repeal, replace or modify the ACA and as a means to reduce the federal budget deficit, there have in recent years been congressional efforts to move Medicaid from an open-ended program with coverage and benefits set by the federal government to one in which states receive a fixed amount of federal funds, either through block grants or per capita caps, and have more flexibility to determine benefits, eligibility or provider payments. If those changes are implemented, we cannot predict whether the amount of fixed federal funding to the states will be based on current payment amounts, or if it will be based on lower payment amounts, which would negatively impact those states that expanded their Medicaid programs in response to the ACA. We expect state and federal efforts to reduce healthcare spending to continue for the foreseeable future.
A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the United States or worldwide, such as COVID-19, has and could in the future adversely affect our business.
We face a wide variety of risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks, especially of infectious diseases, including COVID-19 and its variants. While the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have largely eased, the pandemic dramatically impacted global health. The virus has and continues to disproportionately impact older adults, especially those with chronic illnesses, which describes our participants. On May 11, 2023, the national emergency and public health emergency declarations related to the COVID-19 pandemic expired. The declarations had been in place since early 2020, and in addition to various Congress enacted legislation, allowed the federal government flexibility to waive or modify certain requirements in a range of areas, including Medicare and Medicaid. While we do not believe that the expiration of these emergency declarations will have a material impact to our financial results, we continue to evaluate how the expiration of these emergency declarations may affect our business outlook, and such impact may be material.
Any future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease may adversely affect our business if one of the geographies we serve is affected by such outbreak, particularly at the onset of any such outbreak before response protocols have been developed. Specifically, if our participants fall ill due to an outbreak, we may experience a high level of
28

unexpected deaths, increased costs, and other effects, including a loss of revenue, negative publicity, litigation and inquiries from government regulators.
Medicare pays capitation using a “risk adjustment model,” which compensates providers based on the health status (acuity) of each individual participant. Participants with higher RAF scores necessitate larger capitated payments, and those with lower RAF scores necessitate smaller capitated payments. Medicare requires that a participant’s health issues be documented annually regardless of the permanence of the underlying causes. Any issues with documenting such conditions, such as those that could be presented during a pandemic or epidemic, could adversely impact our ability to accurately record Medicare RAF scores and may result in adjustments to revenues. See Item 1A. Risk Factors “—Risks Related to Our Business—Our records and submissions to government payors may contain inaccurate or unsupportable information regarding risk adjustment scores of participants, which could cause us to overstate or understate our revenue and subject us to repayment obligations or penalties.”
The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated difficulties to hire additional healthcare professionals, causing certain of our centers to be understaffed or staffed with personnel that required training. The reduction in healthcare personnel, and specifically, trained personnel, impacted our ability to adhere to the complex government laws and regulations that apply to our business. PACE regulators require that new participants be assessed within a period of 30 days from enrollment to our programs and for us to provide them a personalized care plan. In the third quarter of 2021, we became aware that a certain number of our centers had failed to timely complete a portion of these participant assessments and care plans. We implemented improvement plans and worked diligently to remediate this issue. Failure to conduct assessments or produce care plans within the required period of time may further subject us to suspension of new enrollment or restrict enrollment at the affected centers and other centers in the affected state. These or future violations of these requirements or other government laws or regulations could result in significant consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
We depend on our senior management team and other key employees, and the loss of one or more of these employees or an inability to attract and retain other highly skilled employees could harm our business.
Our future success depends largely upon the services of our senior management team and other key employees. We rely on our leadership team in the areas of operations, provision of medical services, information technology and security, marketing, and general and administrative functions. Since we became a public company, there have been changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives, including in fiscal 2023, the appointments of a new Chief Medical Officer, a new Chief Operations Officer and, most recently in July 2023, a new Chief Financial Officer. Changes to our business strategy resulting from senior executive officer transitions could have a disruptive impact on our ability to implement our business strategy and could have a material adverse effect on our business.
In addition, our employment agreements with our executive officers and other key personnel do not require them to continue to work for us for any specified period and, therefore, they could terminate their employment with us at any time. The loss, whether as a result of voluntary termination or illness, of one or more of the members of our senior management team, or other key employees, could harm our business. Changes in our executive management team may also cause disruptions in, and harm to, our business.
If certain of our suppliers do not meet our needs, if we are not reimbursed or adequately reimbursed for medical products we purchase or if we are unable to effectively access new technology or medical products, it could negatively impact our ability to effectively provide the services we offer and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
We have significant suppliers that may be the sole or primary source of products critical to the services we provide, or to which we have committed obligations to make purchases, sometimes at particular prices. If any of these suppliers do not meet our needs for the products they supply, including as a result of price increases, a product recall, product shortage or other supply chain issues, or a dispute, and we are not able to find adequate alternative sources, it could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, the technology related to the products critical to the services we provide is subject to new developments which may result in the availability of superior products. If we are not able to access superior products or new medical products, including biopharmaceuticals or medical devices, on a cost-effective basis or if suppliers are not able to fulfill our requirements for such products, we could face attrition with respect to our participants or health care providers and other personnel and other negative consequences which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

We conduct a significant percentage of our operations in the State of Colorado and, as a result, we are particularly susceptible to regulatory issues and reduction in budget appropriations for our services or any other adverse developments in that state.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 23.6% and 25.8% of our total revenues were derived from contracts with government agencies in the State of Colorado. Accordingly, any regulatory issues and developments in the State, such as the enrollment sanctions we were subject to in fiscal years 2022 and 2023, a reduction in Colorado’s budgetary appropriations for our services, whether as a result of fiscal constraints due to recession, emergency situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in policy or otherwise, have and could in the future result in a reduction in our capitated fee payments and possibly the loss of contracts, and materially adversely impact our results.
If we fail to manage our operations effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan, maintain effective levels of service and participant satisfaction or adequately address competitive challenges.
We have experienced, and may continue to experience, organizational change and growth, which has placed, and may continue to place, significant demands on our management and our operational and financial resources. For example, we completed our conversion from a not-for-profit to a for-profit organization in 2016 and completed our IPO in 2021. Additionally, our organizational structure continues to become more complex as we expand our operational, financial and management controls, as well as our reporting systems and procedures as a public company. We may require significant capital expenditures and the allocation of valuable management resources to grow and evolve our operational and financial operations and grow. We must ensure our personnel have the necessary licenses and competencies and continue to effectively train and manage our employees. We will be unable to manage our business effectively if we are unable to alleviate the strain on resources caused by growth in a timely and efficient manner. As our participant base grows following the lifting of sanctions in the states of California and Colorado, we will need to maintain the best practices we developed during our recent audits. If we fail to effectively manage our potential growth and change or fail to ensure that the level of care and services provided by our employees complies with regulatory and contractual requirements, and levels of patient service and satisfaction, our brand and reputation, could suffer, adversely affecting our ability to attract and retain participants and employees and lead to the need for corrective actions.
The healthcare Industry is highly competitive and, if we are not able to compete effectively, our business could be harmed.
We compete directly with national, regional and local providers of healthcare for participants and clinical providers. We also compete directly with payors and other alternate managed care programs for participants. There are many other companies and individuals currently providing healthcare services, many of which have been in business longer and/or have substantially more resources. Given the regulatory environment, there may be high barriers to entry for PACE providers; however, since there are relatively modest capital expenditures required for providing healthcare services, there are less substantial financial barriers to entry in the healthcare industry generally. Other companies could enter the healthcare industry in the future and divert some or all of our business. Our ability to compete successfully varies from location to location and depends on a number of factors, including the number of payors who run competitive programs in the local market, our local reputation for quality participant care, the commitment and expertise of our medical staff or contracted healthcare providers, our local service offerings and community programs, the cost of care in each locality, and the physical appearance, location and condition of our centers. If we are unable to attract participants to our centers our revenue and profitability will be adversely affected. Some of our competitors may have greater brand recognition and be more established in their respective communities than we are, and may have greater financial and other resources than we have. Further, our current or potential competitors may be acquired by third parties with greater available resources. Competing providers may also offer different programs or services than we do, which, combined with the foregoing factors, may result in our competitors being more attractive to our current participants, potential participants and referral sources. Furthermore, while we budget for routine capital expenditures at our centers to keep them competitive in their respective markets, to the extent that competitive forces cause those expenditures to increase in the future, our financial condition may be negatively affected. In addition, our contracts with government payors are not exclusive for PACE programs in California, and competitors in California could seek to establish contracts with the state Medicaid agency and CMS to serve PACE eligible participants in our service areas. For example, the service area for our Sacramento, California center, opened July 1, 2020, overlaps with an existing PACE program in the region. Additionally, as we expand into new geographies, we may encounter competitors with stronger local community relationships or brand recognition, which could give those competitors an advantage in attracting new participants. Individual physicians, physician groups and companies in other healthcare industry segments, some of which have greater financial, marketing and staffing resources, may become competitors in providing healthcare services, and this competition may have a material adverse effect on our business operations and financial position.

Our presence is currently limited to Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and we may not be able to successfully establish a presence in new geographic markets.
We currently operate in Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia and are moving forward with pursuit of licensure required to open two de novo centers in Florida and one de novo center in California. For the year ended June 30, 2023, approximately half of our revenue was driven by our businesses in Colorado. As a result, our exposure to many of the risks described in these risk factors are not mitigated by a diversification of geographic focus. To continue to expand our operations to other regions of the United States, we will have to devote resources to identifying and exploring such perceived opportunities. Thereafter, we will have to, among other things, recruit and retain qualified personnel, develop new centers and establish new relationships or contracts with physicians and other healthcare and services providers. In addition, we will be required to comply with laws and regulations of states that may differ from the ones in which we currently operate, and could face competitors with greater knowledge of such local markets. We anticipate that further geographic expansion will require us to make a substantial investment of management time, capital and/or other resources. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to expand our operations in any new geographic markets.
Competition for physicians and other clinical personnel or other factors could increase our labor costs and adversely affect our revenue, profitability and cash flows.
Our operations are dependent on the efforts, abilities and experience of our physicians and clinical personnel. We compete with other healthcare providers, primarily hospitals and other centers, in attracting physicians, nurses and medical staff to support our centers, and recruiting and retaining qualified management and support personnel responsible for the daily operations of each of our centers. In some markets, the lack of availability of clinical personnel, such as nurses and mental health professionals, has become a significant operating issue facing all healthcare providers. This shortage has required us to enhance wages and benefits to recruit and retain qualified personnel or to contract for more expensive temporary personnel. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our total center-level employee costs represented 18.8% and 18.5%, respectively, of our revenue. We also depend on the available labor pool of semi-skilled and unskilled workers in each of the markets in which we operate.
Our labor costs have increased due to higher wage rates associated with the increased competitive labor market. Because the vast majority of our revenue consists of prospective monthly capitated, or fixed, payments per participant, our ability to pass along increased labor costs is limited. In particular, if labor costs rise at an annual rate greater than our net annual consumer price index basket update from Medicare, our results of operations and cash flows will likely be adversely affected. Any union activity at our centers that may occur in the future could contribute to increased labor costs. Certain proposed changes in federal labor laws and the National Labor Relations Board’s modification of its election procedures to allow for faster elections and absentee ballots could increase the likelihood of employee unionization attempts. Although none of our employees are currently represented by a collective bargaining agreement, to the extent a significant portion of our employee base unionizes, it is possible our labor costs could increase materially. Our failure to recruit and retain or contract with qualified management and medical personnel, or to control our labor costs, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
Security breaches, loss of data and other disruptions have in the past and could in the future compromise sensitive information related to our business or our participants, or prevent us from accessing critical information and expose us to liability, and could adversely affect our business and our reputation.
In the ordinary course of our business, we create, receive, maintain, transmit, collect, store, use, disclose, share and process (collectively, “Process”) sensitive data, including protected health information (“PHI”) and other types of personal data or personally identifiable information (collectively, “PII” and, together with PHI, “PHI/PII”) relating to our employees, participants and others. We also Process and contract with third-party service providers to Process sensitive information, including PHI/PII, confidential information and other proprietary business information. We manage and maintain PHI/PII and other sensitive data and information using our on premise systems, and we plan to implement cloud-based computing center systems in the future. Third-party service providers that serve our participants may Process PHI/PII data either in their own on-site systems, at managed or co-located data centers, or in the cloud.
We are highly dependent on information technology networks and systems, including the internet, to securely Process PHI/PII and other sensitive data and information. Security breaches of this infrastructure, whether ours or of our third-party service providers, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, ransomware, attacks by hackers and similar breaches, and employee or contractor error, negligence or malfeasance, have occurred in the past, and have in the past and could in the future, create system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized access, acquisition, use, disclosure or
31

Table of Contents
modifications of such data or information, and could cause PHI/PII to be accessed, acquired, used, disclosed or modified without authorization, to be made publicly available, or to be further accessed, acquired, used or disclosed.
We use third-party service providers for important aspects of the Processing of employee and participant PHI/PII and other confidential and sensitive data and information, and therefore rely on third parties to manage functions that have material cybersecurity risks. Because of the sensitivity of the PHI/PII and other sensitive data and information that we and our service providers Process, the security of our technology platform and other aspects of our services, including those provided or facilitated by our third-party service providers, are important to our operations and business strategy. We have implemented certain administrative, physical and technological safeguards to address these risks; however, such policies and procedures may not address certain HIPAA requirements or address situations that could lead to increased privacy or security risks, and agreements with contractors and other third-party service providers who handle this PHI/PII and other sensitive data and information for us. However, some PACE organizations that we have acquired in the past or may acquire in the future may not have implemented such agreements with their third-party service providers, which may expose us to legal claims or proceedings, liability, and penalties. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches, to safeguard the privacy, security, and confidentiality of PHI/PII and other sensitive data and information, to investigate, contain, remediate, and mitigate actual or potential security breaches, and/or to report security breaches to participants, employees, regulators, media, credit bureaus, and other third parties in accordance with applicable law and to offer complimentary credit monitoring, identity theft protection, and similar services to participants and/or employees where required by law or otherwise appropriate. Cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated, and frequent, and we or our third-party service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate protective measures against them or to prevent future attacks. The remote work environment has increased these risks. We exercise limited control over our third-party service providers and, in the case of some third-party service providers, may not have evaluated the adequacy of their security measures, which increases our vulnerability to problems with services they provide.
A security breach, security incident, or privacy violation that leads to unauthorized use, disclosure, access, acquisition, loss or modification of, or that prevents access to or otherwise impacts the confidentiality, security, or integrity of, participant or employee information, including PHI/PII that we or our third-party service providers process, could harm our reputation and business, compel us to comply with breach notification laws, cause us to incur significant costs for investigation, containment, remediation, mitigation, fines, penalties, settlements, notification to individuals, regulators, media, credit bureaus, and other third parties, complimentary credit monitoring, identity theft protection, training and similar services to participants and/or employees where required by law or otherwise appropriate, for measures intended to repair or replace systems or technology and to prevent future occurrences. We may also be subject to potential increases in insurance premiums, resulting in increased costs or loss of revenue.
In February 2021, we became aware that a former third-party service provider of acquired organizations was the victim of a ransomware attack that occurred in December 2020. We understand that this attack resulted in the unauthorized access and exfiltration of the PHI/PII of over 2,000 of our current and former participants. We confirmed that this former third-party service provider had removed the PHI/PII of our participants from its servers, and the service provider advised that all vulnerabilities in its environment and lack of security controls had been resolved. In attacks such as this, including to third-party service-providers, we remain responsible under HIPAA for our participant’s PHI/PII, and any failure on our part to comply with HIPAA in connection with such data could subject us to civil penalties, resolution agreements, monitoring or similar agreements or other enforcement action.
If we or our third-party service providers are unable to prevent or mitigate security breaches, security incidents or privacy violations in the future, or if we or our third-party service providers are unable to implement satisfactory remedial measures with respect to known or future security incidents, or if it is perceived that we have been unable to do so, our operations could be disrupted, we may be unable to provide access to our systems, and we could suffer a loss of participants, loss of reputation, adverse impacts on participant and investor confidence, financial loss, governmental investigations or other actions, regulatory or contractual penalties, and other claims and liability. In addition, security breaches and incidents and other compromise or inappropriate access to, or acquisition or processing of, PHI/PII or other sensitive data or information can be difficult to detect, and any delay in identifying such breaches or incidents or in providing timely notification of such incidents may lead to increased harm and increased penalties.
While we maintain insurance covering certain security and privacy damages and claim expenses, we may not carry insurance or maintain coverage sufficient to compensate for all liability and in any event, insurance coverage would not address the reputational damage that could result from a security incident.

Our business depends on our ability to effectively invest in, implement improvements to and properly maintain the uninterrupted operation and data integrity of our information technology and other business systems.
Our business is highly dependent on maintaining effective information systems as well as the integrity and timeliness of the data we use to serve our participants, support our care teams and operate our business. Because of the large amount of data that we collect and manage, it is possible that hardware or software failures or errors in our systems could result in data loss or corruption or cause the information that we collect to be incomplete or contain significant inaccuracies. In fiscal year 2022, we began upgrading our electronic medical records system in our centers. We expect adoption and integration of the new system to continue into fiscal year 2024. Even though we expect to realize benefits from the adoption of this new system, any expected benefits will be gradual and there could be inefficiencies as operators learn the new system. In addition, the introduction of a new system can lead to errors and loss of data. If our data were found to be inaccurate or unreliable due to error or fraud, or if we, or any of the third-party service providers we engage, were to fail to maintain information systems, including our new electronic medical records system, and data integrity effectively, we could experience operational disruptions that may impact our participants and providers and hinder our ability to provide services, retain and attract participants, manage our participant risk profiles, establish reserves, report financial results timely and accurately and maintain regulatory compliance, among other things.
Our information technology strategy and execution are critical to our continued success. We must continue to invest in long-term solutions that will enable us to anticipate participant needs and expectations, enhance the participant experience, act as a differentiator in the market and protect against cybersecurity risks and threats. Our success is dependent, in large part, on maintaining the effectiveness of existing technology systems and continuing to deliver technology systems that support our business processes in a cost-efficient and resource-efficient manner, including through maintaining relationships with third-party providers of technology. Increasing regulatory and legislative changes will place additional demands on our information technology infrastructure that could have a direct impact on resources available for other projects tied to our strategic initiatives. In addition, recent trends toward greater participant engagement in healthcare require new and enhanced technologies, including more sophisticated applications for mobile devices. Connectivity among technologies is becoming increasingly important. Our failure to effectively invest in and properly maintain the uninterrupted operation and data integrity of our information technology and other business systems could adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flow.
A failure to accurately estimate incurred but not reported medical expenses or the risk scores of our participants could adversely affect our results of operations.
External provider costs include estimates of future medical claims that have been incurred by the participant but for which the provider has not yet billed. These claim estimates are made utilizing actuarial methods and are continually evaluated and adjusted by management, based upon our historical claims experience and other factors, including an independent assessment by a nationally recognized actuarial firm. Positive or negative adjustments, if necessary, are made when the assumptions used to determine our claims liability change and when actual claim costs are ultimately determined.
Due to uncertainties associated with the factors used in these estimates and changes in the patterns and rates of medical utilization, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements for a particular period under different conditions or using different, but still reasonable, assumptions. It is possible that our estimates of this type of claim may be excessive or inadequate in the future and we may be obligated to repay certain amounts to CMS. In such event, our results of operations could be adversely impacted. Further, the inability to estimate these claims accurately may also affect our ability to take timely corrective actions, further exacerbating the extent of any adverse effect on our results of operations.
In addition, our operational and financial results will experience some variability depending upon the time of year in which they are measured. For example, medical costs vary seasonally depending primarily on the weather because certain illnesses, such as the influenza virus, are far more prevalent during colder months of the year. Historically, we have seen higher levels of per-participant medical costs in the second and third quarters of our fiscal year.
Our use of “open source” software could adversely affect our ability to offer our services and subject us to possible litigation.
We may use open source software in connection with our services. Companies that incorporate open source software into their technologies have, from time to time, faced claims challenging the use of open source software and/or compliance with open source license terms. As a result, we could be subject to suits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open source software or claiming noncompliance with open source licensing terms. Such litigation could be costly and time consuming, divert the attention of management, and the outcomes may not be favorable. While the use of open source software may reduce development costs and speed up the development process, it may also present certain
33

Table of Contents
risks that may be greater than those associated with the use of third-party commercial software. For example, open source software is generally provided without any warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement or the quality of the code, including the existence of security vulnerabilities.
We lease approximately half of our centers and may experience risks relating to lease termination, lease expense escalators, lease extensions and special charges.
We currently lease seven of our 17 centers. Our leases typically have terms of nine years, and generally provide for renewal or extension options for an average total potential term of approximately 25 years. Each of our lease agreements provides that the lessor may terminate the lease, subject to applicable cure provisions, for a number of reasons, including the defaults in any payment of rent, taxes or other payment obligations or the breach of any other covenant or agreement in the lease. If a lease agreement is terminated, there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into a new lease agreement on similar or better terms or at all.
Our lease obligations often include annual fixed rent escalators ranging between 2% and 3%. These escalators could impact our ability to satisfy certain obligations and financial covenants. If the results of our operations do not increase at or above the escalator rates, it would place an additional burden on our results of operations, liquidity and financial position.
If we continue to expand, we may have leases with different start dates, and it is likely that some number of our leases will expire each year. Our lease agreements often provide for renewal or extension options. There can be no assurance that these rights will be exercised in the future or that we will be able to satisfy the conditions precedent to exercising any such renewal or extension. In addition, if we are unable to renew or extend any of our leases, we may lose the center subject to that lease agreement. If we are not able to renew or extend our leases at or prior to the end of the existing lease terms, or if the terms of such options are unfavorable or unacceptable to us, our business, financial condition and results of operation could be adversely affected.
Leasing centers pursuant to binding lease agreements may limit our ability to exit markets. For instance, if one center under a lease has a delayed opening or becomes unprofitable, we have been and may be required to continue making payments under such lease agreement or continue operating such center. We could incur special charges relating to the closing operations of such facility, including lease termination costs, impairment charges and other special charges that would reduce our profits and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our failure to pay the rent or otherwise comply with the provisions of any of our lease agreements could result in an “event of default” under such lease agreement and also could result in a cross default under other lease agreements and agreements for our indebtedness. Upon an event of default, remedies available to our landlords generally include, without limitation, terminating such lease agreement, repossessing and reletting the leased properties and requiring us to remain liable for all obligations under such lease agreement, including the difference between the rent under such lease agreement and the rent payable as a result of reletting the leased properties, or requiring us to pay the net present value of the rent due for the balance of the term of such lease agreement. The exercise of such remedies could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and liquidity.
We began operating as a for-profit company in 2016 and have limited operating history as a for-profit company. Accordingly, our historical and recent financial and business results may not be representative of what they may be in the future.
We were originally formed in 2007 as a not-for-profit company and converted to a for-profit company in 2016. Due to our relatively limited operating history as a for-profit company, our historical and recent financial and business results may not be representative of what they may be in the future. We have encountered and will continue to encounter significant risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by new companies in rapidly changing and highly regulated industries, such as determining appropriate investments for our limited resources, competition from other providers, acquiring and retaining participants, hiring, integrating, training and retaining skilled personnel, unforeseen expenses and challenges in forecasting accuracy. Although we have expanded our footprint outside of Colorado into other geographies, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to expand into new geographies or that any new centers we open or acquire, or new geographies we enter will be successful. If our assumptions regarding risks and uncertainties that we use to plan our business are incorrect or change as we gain more experience operating a for-profit business or due to changes in our industry, or if we do not address these challenges successfully, our operating and financial results could differ materially from our expectations and our reputation and business could suffer materially.

Our centers have been and may be negatively impacted by public health emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, weather and other factors beyond our control.
Our results of operations have been and may in the future be negatively impacted by adverse conditions affecting our centers, including severe weather events such as tornadoes, hurricanes and widespread winter storms, earthquakes, public health concerns such as contagious disease outbreaks, epidemics and pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, violence or threats of violence or other factors beyond our control that cause disruption in provision of participant services, displacement of our participants, employees and care teams, or force certain of our centers to close temporarily. Our insurance coverage may not compensate us for losses that may occur in the event of an earthquake or other significant natural disaster. In certain geographic areas, we have a large concentration of centers that may be simultaneously affected by health emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, adverse weather conditions or other events. Our future operating results may be adversely affected by these and other factors that disrupt the operation of our centers.
Risks Related to Regulation
Allegations of failure and failure to adhere to all the complex government laws and regulations that apply to our business have had and could in the future have material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, reputation and stock price.
Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local government laws and regulations, such as:
Federal Medicare, federal and state Medicaid, and federal and state PACE statutes and regulations, which are continuously changing and evolving;
federal and state anti-kickback and self-referral laws, which prohibit, among other things, the knowing and willful offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any bribe, kickback or remuneration, whether in cash or in kind, for referring an individual, in return for ordering, leasing, purchasing or recommending or arranging for or to induce the referral of an individual or the ordering, purchasing or leasing of items or services covered, in whole or in part, by federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, or by any payor;
the federal civil false claims laws, including the FCA and associated regulations, which impose civil penalties through governmental, whistleblower or qui tam actions, on individuals or entities for, among other things, knowingly submitting false or fraudulent claims for payment to the government or knowingly making, or causing to be made, a false statement in order to have a claim paid. When an entity is determined to have violated the FCA, the government may impose civil fines and penalties ranging from $13,508 to $27,018 for each false claim, plus treble damages, and exclude the entity from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs;
the federal false claims laws, which impose criminal penalties on individuals who make or present a false, fictitious, or fraudulent claim to the government that the individual knew was false, fictitious, or fraudulent, and was made with the specific intent to violate the law or with a consciousness of wrongdoing;
state false claims laws, which generally follow the FCA and apply to claims submitted to state healthcare programs, and state health insurance fraud laws that impose penalties for the submission of false or fraudulent claims by providers to commercial insurers or other payors of healthcare services;
the federal Civil Monetary Penalties Statute and associated regulations, which impose civil fines for, among other things, the offering or transfer of remuneration to a Medicare or state healthcare program beneficiary if the person knows or should know such remuneration is likely to influence the beneficiary’s selection of a particular provider or supplier of services reimbursable by Medicare or a state healthcare program, unless an exception applies, and which authorize assessments and program exclusion for various forms of fraud and abuse involving the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
the federal healthcare fraud statute and its implementing regulations, which created federal criminal laws that prohibit, among other things, executing or attempting to execute a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program or making false statements relating to healthcare matters;
federal and state laws regarding the collection, use disclosure and, protection of personal identifiable information or PII and protected health information or PHI (e.g., HIPAA, CCPA) and the storage, handling,
35

Table of Contents
shipment, disposal and/or dispensing of pharmaceuticals and blood products and other biological materials, and many other applicable state and federal laws and requirements;
state and federal statutes and regulations that govern workplace health and safety;
federal and state laws and policies that require healthcare providers to maintain licensure, certification or accreditation to provide services to patients or to enroll and participate in the Medicaid programs, to report certain changes in their operations to the agencies that administer these programs and, in some cases, to re-enroll in these programs when changes in direct or indirect ownership occur;
federal and state scope of practice and other laws pertaining to the provision of services by qualified healthcare providers, including those pertaining to the provision of services by nurse practitioners and physician assistants in certain settings and requirements for physician supervision of those services;
state laws restricting the corporate practice of medicine; and
federal or state consumer protection laws that regulate various trade practices (e.g. consumer communications or consumer-facing activities).
In addition to the above, PACE contracts also impose complex and extensive requirements upon our operations.
Federal and state manuals, policies, and other guidance may also affect our operations.
The various laws, regulations, and agency guidance that apply or relate to our operations are often subject to varying interpretations, and additional laws and regulations potentially affecting healthcare organizations continue to be promulgated and issued. A violation or departure from any of the legal requirements applicable to our business may result in, among other things, government audits, decreased payment rates, significant fines and penalties, the potential loss of licensure or certification, recoupment efforts or retractions of reimbursement previously paid, voluntary repayments, exclusion from governmental healthcare programs, written warnings, corrective action plans, monitoring, reputational harm, suspension of new enrollment or the restriction of current enrollment, the withholding of payments under the PACE program agreement, and termination of the PACE program agreement. These legal requirements may be civil or administrative in nature. We are subject to federal and state regulations that require PACE organizations to maintain fiscally sound operations, as defined by CMS and applicable state agencies. We submit regular financial reports to governmental authorities and are subject to routine financial reviews and audits by both CMS and state agencies. For example, federal and state governments evaluate our assets and liabilities, cash flows, and net operating surpluses against specific regulatory requirements. From time to time, federal and state authorities may identify aspects of the finances of our PACE organizations that do not comply with federal or state requirements and may require us to submit clarifications and/or take action to adjust the capitalization or other financial status of such entities. As state agencies promulgate additional regulations applicable to PACE and issue sub-regulatory guidance, we will have to allocate sufficient resources to ensure compliance with both federal and state regulations.
We endeavor to comply with all legal requirements. We further endeavor to structure all of our relationships with physicians, providers, and other third parties to comply with state and federal anti-kickback laws and other applicable healthcare laws. We utilize considerable resources to monitor laws and regulations and implement necessary changes. However, the laws and regulations in these areas are complex, changing and often subject to varying interpretations, and any failure to satisfy applicable laws and regulations could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and reputation. We may face penalties, including penalties under the FCA, if we fail to report and return government overpayments within 60 days of when the overpayment is identified and quantified. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business—We are subject to legal proceedings, enforcement actions and litigation, malpractice and privacy disputes, which are costly to defend and could materially harm our business and results of operations.” Additionally, the federal government has used the FCA to prosecute a wide variety of alleged false claims and fraud allegedly perpetrated against Medicare, Medicaid, and other federally funded healthcare programs. Moreover, amendments to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in the ACA make claims tainted by Anti-Kickback Statute violations subject to liability under the FCA, including qui tam or whistleblower suits. In recent years, the number of suits brought in the medical industry by private individuals has increased dramatically. Given the high volume of claims processed by our various operating units, the potential is high for substantial penalties in connection with any alleged FCA violations.
In addition to the provisions of the FCA, the federal government can use several criminal statutes to prosecute persons who are alleged to have submitted false or fraudulent claims for payment to the federal government.

If any of our operations are found to violate these or other government laws or regulations, we could suffer severe consequences that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, reputation and stock price, including:
suspension, termination or exclusion of our participation in government payment programs;
refunds of amounts received in violation of law or applicable payment program requirements dating back to the applicable statute of limitation periods;
loss of our licenses required to operate healthcare centers, complete certain limited lab testing or administer prescription drugs in the states in which we operate;
criminal or civil liability, fines, damages or monetary penalties for violations of healthcare fraud and abuse laws, including the Anti-Kickback Statute, Civil Monetary Penalties Statute and FCA, or other failures to meet regulatory requirements;
enforcement actions by governmental agencies or state attorneys general and/or state law claims for monetary damages by patients or employees who believe their PHI/PII has been impermissibly used or disclosed or not properly safeguarded, or their rights with respect to PHI/PII have been protected, in violation of federal or state health privacy laws, including, for example and without limitation, HIPAA, CCPA as amended by the CPRA, and the Privacy Act of 1974;
mandated changes to our practices or procedures that significantly increase operating expenses;
imposition of and compliance with corporate integrity agreements, monitoring agreements or corrective action plans that could subject us to ongoing audits and reporting requirements as well as increased scrutiny of our billing and business practices which could lead to potential fines, among other things;
termination of various relationships and/or contracts related to our business, including joint venture arrangements, real estate leases and consulting agreements; and
harm to our reputation, which could negatively impact our business relationships, affect our ability to attract and retain participants and healthcare professionals, affect our ability to obtain financing and decrease access to new business opportunities, among other things.
We are, from time to time, and may in the future continue to be, a party to various lawsuits, demands, claims, governmental investigations, audits (including investigations or other actions resulting from our obligation to self-report suspected violations of law), and other legal matters. Responding to subpoenas, requests for information, investigations and other lawsuits, claims, and legal proceedings as well as defending ourselves in such matters has required management’s attention and caused us to incur significant legal expense. Negative findings or terms and conditions that we might agree to accept as part of a negotiated resolution of such matters could result in, among other things, substantial financial penalties or awards against us, substantial payments made by us, harm to our reputation, required changes to our business practices, exclusion from future participation in the Medicare, Medicaid and other healthcare programs and, in certain cases, criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. It is possible that criminal proceedings may be initiated against us and/or individuals in our business in connection with investigations by the federal government. The results of such lawsuits cannot be predicted. Qui tam actions are filed under seal and impose a mandatory duty on the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate such allegations, and because qui tam suits are filed under seal, we could be subject to suits of which we are not aware or have been ordered by the presiding court not to discuss or disclose.
We, our healthcare professionals, and the centers in which we operate, are subject to various federal, state and local licensing, certification and other laws and regulations, relating to, among other things, the quality of medical care, equipment, privacy of health information, physician relationships, telehealth, personnel and operating policies and procedures. Failure to comply with these licensing and certification laws, regulations and standards could result in cessation of our services, prior payments by government payors being subject to recoupment, corrective action plans, the suspension of participant enrollment or requirements to make significant changes to our operations and can give rise to civil or, in extreme cases, criminal penalties. We routinely take the steps we believe are necessary to retain or obtain all requisite licensure and operating authorities. While we endeavor to comply with federal, state and local licensing and certification laws and regulations and standards as we interpret them, the laws and regulations in these areas are complex, changing and often subject to varying interpretations. Any failure to satisfy applicable laws and regulations could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and reputation.

If we are unable to effectively adapt to changes in the healthcare industry, including changes to laws and regulations regarding or affecting U.S. healthcare reform, our business may be harmed.
Due to the importance of the healthcare industry in the lives of all Americans, federal, state, and local legislative bodies frequently pass legislation and administrative agencies promulgate regulations relating to healthcare reform or that affect the healthcare industry. As has been the trend in recent years, it is reasonable to assume that there will continue to be increased government oversight and regulation of the healthcare industry in the future. We cannot assure our stockholders as to the ultimate content, timing or effect of any new healthcare legislation or regulations, nor is it possible at this time to estimate the impact of potential new legislation or regulations on our business.
Since nearly all of our revenue is derived from government payors, we are always subject to regulatory changes. Federal and state legislators routinely introduce and consider proposed legislation that would impact Medicare, Medicaid, and PACE funding and operations, and state and federal agencies also consider and implement regulations and guidance that impact our business. We cannot predict with certainty what impact any federal and state healthcare legislation or regulation will have on us, but such changes could impose new and/or more stringent regulatory requirements on our activities or result in reduced capitated payments, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
It is possible that future legislation enacted by Congress or state legislatures, or regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities at the federal or state level, could adversely affect our business or could change the operating environment of our community centers. It is possible that the changes to Medicare, Medicaid or other governmental healthcare program reimbursement policies may serve as precedent to possible changes in other government payors’ programs in a manner that adversely impacts the capitation payment arrangements with us. Similarly, changes in private payor reimbursement policies could lead to adverse changes in Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental healthcare programs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
While we believe that we have structured our agreements and operations in material compliance with applicable healthcare laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that regulators will agree with our approach or that we will be able to successfully address changes in the current legislative and regulatory environment. We believe that our business operations materially comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations. However, some of the healthcare laws and regulations applicable to us are subject to limited or evolving interpretations, and a review of our business or operations by a court, law enforcement or a regulatory authority might result in a determination that could have a material adverse effect on us. Furthermore, the healthcare laws and regulations applicable to us may be amended or interpreted in a manner that could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
Laws regulating the corporate practice of medicine could restrict the manner in which we are permitted to conduct our business, and the failure to comply with such laws could subject us to penalties or require a restructuring of our business.
Some of the states in which we currently operate have laws that prohibit business entities, such as us, from practicing medicine, employing physicians or other clinicians to practice medicine, exercising control over medical decisions by physicians or other clinicians or engaging in certain arrangements, such as fee-splitting, with physicians or other clinicians (such activities generally referred to as the “corporate practice of medicine”). In some states, these prohibitions are expressly stated in a statute or regulation, while in other states the prohibition is a matter of judicial or regulatory interpretation. For example, in Pennsylvania, the statutes that pertain to the employment of healthcare practitioners by healthcare centers do not explicitly include a PACE organization in the list of healthcare centers by which a healthcare practitioner may be employed. Other states in which we may operate in the future may also generally prohibit the corporate practice of medicine. While we endeavor to comply with state corporate practice of medicine laws and regulations as we interpret them, the laws and regulations in these areas are complex, changing, and often subject to varying interpretations. The interpretation and enforcement of these laws vary significantly from state to state.
Penalties for violations of the corporate practice of medicine vary by state and may result in physicians being subject to disciplinary action, as well as forfeiture of revenues from payors for services rendered. For business entities, such as us, violations may also bring both civil and, in more extreme cases, criminal liability for engaging in medical practice without a license.
Some of the relevant laws, regulations, and agency interpretations in states with corporate practice of medicine restrictions have been subject to limited judicial and regulatory interpretation. State laws or regulations prohibiting the corporate practice of medicine may contemplate the employment of physicians by certain types of entities but may not provide a specific exemption for PACE organizations. State laws and regulations are subject to change. Regulatory
38

Table of Contents
authorities and other parties may assert that our employment of physicians in some states means that we are engaged in the prohibited corporate practice of medicine. If this were to occur, we could be subject to civil and/or criminal penalties, our agreements with physicians could be found legally invalid and unenforceable (in whole or in part) or we could be required to restructure our arrangements with respect to the physicians that care for our participants, in each case in one or more of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Any of these outcomes may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and reputation.
Our use, disclosure, and other processing of PHI/PII is subject to HIPAA, CCPA as amended by the CPRA and other federal and state privacy and security regulations, and our failure to comply with those laws and regulations or to adequately secure the information we hold could result in significant liability or reputational harm and, in turn, a material adverse effect on our participant base and revenue.
Numerous state and federal laws and regulations govern the collection, dissemination, use, disclosure, destruction, retention, privacy, confidentiality, security, availability, integrity and other processing of PHI/PII. These laws and regulations include HIPAA. HIPAA establishes a set of national privacy and security standards for the protection of PHI by health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and certain healthcare providers, referred to as covered entities, and the business associates with whom such covered entities contract for services. A business associate is any person or entity (other than members of a covered entity’s workforce) that performs a service for or on behalf of a covered entity involving the use or disclosure of protected health information.
HIPAA requires covered entities, such as ourselves, and their business associates to develop and maintain policies and procedures with respect to PHI that is used or disclosed, including the adoption of administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect such information. HIPAA also implemented the use of standard transaction code sets and standard identifiers that covered entities must use when submitting or receiving certain electronic healthcare transactions, including activities associated with the billing and collection of healthcare claims.
HIPAA imposes mandatory penalties for certain violations. Under a notice of enforcement discretion issued by HHS in 2019, penalties for violations of HIPAA and its implementing regulations start at $100 (not adjusted for inflation) per violation and are not to exceed approximately $63,000 (not adjusted for inflation) per violation, subject to a cap of approximately $1.9 million (not adjusted for inflation) for violations of the same standard in a single calendar year. However, a single breach incident can result in violations of multiple standards. In addition, HIPAA provides for criminal penalties of up to $250,000 and ten years in prison, with the severest penalties for obtaining and disclosing PHI with the intent to sell, transfer or use such information for commercial advantage, personal gain or malicious harm. HIPAA also authorizes state attorneys general to file suit on behalf of their residents. Courts may award damages, costs and attorneys’ fees related to violations of HIPAA in such cases. While HIPAA does not create a private right of action allowing individuals to sue us in civil court for violations of HIPAA, its standards have been used as the basis for duty of care in state civil suits such as those for negligence or recklessness in the misuse or breach of PHI.
In addition, HIPAA mandates that the Secretary of HHS conduct periodic compliance audits of HIPAA covered entities and business associates for compliance with the HIPAA Privacy and Security Standards. It also tasks HHS with establishing a methodology whereby harmed individuals who were the victims of breaches of unsecured PHI may receive a percentage of the civil monetary penalty fine paid by the violator.
HIPAA further requires that individuals be notified of any unauthorized acquisition, access, use or disclosure of their unsecured PHI that compromises the privacy or security of such information, with certain exceptions related to unintentional or inadvertent use or disclosure by employees or authorized individuals. HIPAA specifies that such notifications must be made “without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery of the breach.” If a breach affects 500 individuals or more, it must be reported to HHS without unreasonable delay, and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery, and HHS will automatically investigate the breach and post the name of the entity on its public breach portal. If a breach involves fewer than 500 people, the covered entity must record it in a log and notify HHS at least annually. Breaches affecting more than 500 residents in the same state or jurisdiction must also be reported to the local media. Looking ahead, it is possible that the ADPPA, a landmark federal privacy bill with significant bipartisan support, may gain traction. Although ADPPA would not apply to health data covered by HIPAA, it would apply to other health data, such as health data controlled by certain entities in the digital health space.
In addition to HIPAA, numerous other federal and state laws and regulations protect the confidentiality, privacy, availability, integrity and security of individually identifiable information. State statutes and regulations vary from state to state, and these laws and regulations in many cases are more restrictive than, and may not be preempted by, HIPAA and its implementing rules. These laws and regulations are often uncertain, contradictory, and subject to changing or differing
39

Table of Contents
interpretations, and we expect new laws, rules and regulations regarding privacy, data protection, and information security to be proposed and enacted in the future. For example, the CCPA provides certain exceptions for PHI, but is still applicable to certain PII we process in the ordinary course of our business. The effects of the CCPA are wide-ranging and afford consumers certain rights with respect to PII, including a private right of action for data breaches involving certain personal information of California residents. In addition, the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, or CPRA, which went into effect January 1, 2023, expands the CCPA’s requirements, including by adding a new right for individuals to correct their personal information and establishing a new regulatory agency to implement and enforce the law. Other states, including Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia, have enacted similar privacy laws that impose new obligations or limitations in areas affecting our business and we continue to assess the impact of this state legislation on our business as additional information and guidance becomes available. Efforts at the federal level to enact similar laws have been ongoing. As new data security laws are implemented, we may not be able to timely comply with such requirements, or such requirements may not be compatible with our current processes. Changing our processes could be time consuming and expensive, and failure to implement required changes in a timely manner could subject us to liability for non-compliance. Consumers may also be afforded a private right of action for certain violations of privacy laws. This complex, dynamic legal landscape regarding privacy, data protection, and information security creates significant compliance issues for us and potentially restricts our ability to process data and may expose us to additional expense, adverse publicity, and liability. While we believe we have implemented data privacy and security measures in an effort to comply with applicable laws and regulations, and we have implemented measures to require our third-party service providers to maintain reasonable data privacy and security measures, we cannot guarantee that these efforts will be adequate, and we may be subject to cybersecurity, ransomware or other security incidents. Further, it is possible that laws, rules and regulations relating to privacy, data protection, or information security may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our practices or those of our third-party service providers. If we or these third parties are found to have violated such laws, rules or regulations, it could result in regulatory investigations, litigation awards or settlements, government-imposed fines, orders requiring that we or these third parties change our or their practices, or criminal charges, which could adversely affect our business. Complying with these various laws and regulations could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices, systems and compliance procedures in a manner adverse to our business.
We also publish statements to our participants that describe how we handle and protect PHI. If federal or state regulatory authorities, such as the FTC, or private litigants consider any portion of these statements to be untrue, we may be subject to claims of deceptive practices, which could lead to significant liabilities and consequences, including, without limitation, costs of responding to investigations, defending against litigation, settling claims, and complying with regulatory or court orders. The FTC sets expectations for failing to take appropriate steps to keep consumers’ personal information secure, or failing to provide a level of security commensurate to promises made to individual about the security of their personal information (such as in a privacy notice) may constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in violation of Section 5(a) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC Act”). The FTC expects a company’s data security measures to be reasonable and appropriate in light of the sensitivity and volume of consumer information it holds, the size and complexity of its business, and the cost of available tools to improve security and reduce vulnerabilities. Individually identifiable health information is considered sensitive data that merits stronger safeguards. With respect to privacy, the FTC also sets expectations that companies honor the privacy promises made to individuals about how the company handles consumers’ personal information; any failure to honor promises, such as the statements made in a privacy policy or on a website, may also constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in violation of the FTC Act. While we do not intend to engage in unfair or deceptive acts or practices, the FTC has the power to enforce promises as it interprets them, and events that we cannot fully control, such as data breaches, may be result in FTC enforcement. Enforcement by the FTC under the FTC Act can result in civil penalties or enforcement actions. Any of the foregoing consequences could seriously harm our business and our financial results.
Risks Related to Our Indebtedness
Our existing indebtedness could adversely affect our business and growth prospects.
As of June 30, 2023, we had total outstanding debt of (i) $67.5 million principal amount under the Term Loan Facility (as defined in Note 7, “Long-term Debt” to the consolidated financial statements), and (ii) $2.3 million principal amount under the convertible term loan. Our indebtedness, or any additional indebtedness we may incur, could require us to divert funds identified for other purposes for debt service, impairing our liquidity position. If we cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service our debt, we may need to refinance our debt, dispose of assets or issue equity to obtain necessary funds. We do not know whether we will be able to take any of these actions on a timely basis, or on terms satisfactory to us or at all.
40

Table of Contents
Our indebtedness and the cash flow needed to satisfy our debt have important consequences, including:
limiting funds otherwise available for financing our capital expenditures and pursuing our growth strategies by requiring us to dedicate a portion of our cash flows from operations to the repayment of debt and the interest on this debt;
making us more vulnerable to rising interest rates; and
making us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business.
Our level of indebtedness may place us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors that are not as highly leveraged. Fluctuations in interest rates can increase borrowing costs. Increases in interest rates may directly impact the amount of interest we are required to pay and reduce earnings accordingly. In addition, developments in tax policy, such as the disallowance of tax deductions for interest paid on outstanding indebtedness, could have an adverse effect on our liquidity and our business, financial conditions and results of operations.
We expect to use cash flow from operations to meet current and future financial obligations, including funding our operations, debt service requirements and capital expenditures necessary to grow and maintain our businesses. The ability to make these payments depends on our financial and operating performance, which is subject to prevailing economic, industry and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, economic and other factors beyond our control.
The terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement restrict our current and future operations, particularly our ability to respond to changes or to take certain actions.
The 2021 Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7, “Long-term Debt” to the consolidated financial statements) contains a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us and may limit our ability to engage in acts that may be in our long-term best interests, including restrictions on our ability to:
incur additional indebtedness or other contingent obligations;
create liens;
make investments, acquisitions, loans, guarantees and advances;
consolidate, merge, liquidate or dissolve;
sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of our assets;
pay dividends on our equity interests or make other payments in respect of capital stock; and
materially alter the business we conduct.
The restrictive covenants in the 2021 Credit Agreement require us to satisfy certain financial condition tests. Our ability to satisfy those tests can be affected by events beyond our control.
A breach of the covenants or restrictions under the 2021 Credit Agreement could result in an event of default under such document. Such a default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt and terminate all commitments to extend credit thereunder and may result in the acceleration of any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies. In the event the holders of our indebtedness accelerate the repayment, we may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness or be able to borrow sufficient funds to refinance it. Even if we are able to obtain new financing, it may not be on commercially reasonable terms or on terms acceptable to us. As a result of these restrictions, we may be:
limited in how we conduct our business;
unable to raise additional debt or equity financing to operate during general economic or business downturns; or
unable to compete effectively or to take advantage of new business opportunities.
These restrictions, along with restrictions that may be contained in agreements evidencing or governing other future indebtedness, may affect our ability to grow in accordance with our growth strategy.
41

Table of Contents
Our failure to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in participant services in the future could reduce our ability to compete successfully and harm our results of operations.
We may need to raise additional funds, and we may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on favorable terms or at all. If we raise additional equity financing, our security holders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests. If we engage in additional debt financing, we may be required to accept terms that restrict our operational flexibility and our ability to incur additional indebtedness, force us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios or restrict our ability to pay dividends or make acquisitions. In addition, the covenants in our 2021 Credit Agreement may limit our ability to obtain additional debt, and any failure to adhere to these covenants could result in penalties or defaults that could further restrict our liquidity or limit our ability to obtain financing. If we need additional capital and cannot raise it on acceptable terms, or at all, we may not be able to, among other things:
develop and enhance our participant services;
continue to expand our business either by increasing enrollment or building de novo centers;
hire, train and retain employees;
respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated working capital requirements; or
pursue acquisition opportunities.
In addition, if we issue additional equity to raise capital, your interest in the Company will be diluted.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Our Principal Shareholders control us, and their interests may conflict with ours or yours in the future.
Our Principal Shareholders own approximately 86% of our common stock, which means that, based on their combined percentage voting power held, the Principal Shareholders together control the vote of all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders, which enables them to control the election of the members of the Board and all other corporate decisions. This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent acts that would be favored by our other shareholders. The interests of the Principal Shareholders may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of our other shareholders. Even when the Principal Shareholders cease to own shares of our stock representing a majority of the total voting power, for so long as the Principal Shareholders continue to own a significant percentage of our stock, the Principal Shareholders will still be able to significantly influence the composition of our Board and the approval of actions requiring shareholder approval. Accordingly, for such period of time, the Principal Shareholders will have significant influence with respect to our management, business plans and policies, including the appointment and removal of our officers, decisions on whether to raise future capital and amending our charter and bylaws, which govern the rights attached to our common stock. In particular, for so long as the Principal Shareholders continue to own a significant percentage of our stock, the Principal Shareholders will be able to cause or prevent a change of control of us or a change in the composition of our Board and could preclude any unsolicited acquisition of us. The concentration of ownership could deprive you of an opportunity to receive a premium for your shares of common stock as part of a sale of us and ultimately might affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, this concentration of ownership may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock because investors may perceive disadvantages in owning shares in a company with significant stockholders.
In addition, we are party to a Director Nomination Agreement (defined herein) with the Principal Shareholders that provides the Principal Shareholders the right to designate: (i) all of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as the Principal Shareholders collectively beneficially own at least 40% of the Original Amount (as defined therein); (ii) 40% of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as the Principal Shareholders collectively beneficially own less than 40% but at least 30% of the Original Amount; (iii) 30% of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as the Principal Shareholders collectively beneficially own less than 30% but at least 20% of the Original Amount; (iv) 20% of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as the Principal Shareholders collectively beneficially own less than 20% but at least 10% of the Original Amount; and (v) one of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as the Principal Shareholders collectively beneficially own at least 5% of the Original Amount. If TCO Group Holdings, L.P., the investment vehicle through which the Principal Shareholders hold their investment is dissolved, then each of the Principal Shareholders will be permitted to nominate (i) up to three directors so long as it owns at least 25% of the Original Amount, (ii) up to two directors so long as it owns at least 15% of the Original Amount and (iii) one director so long as it owns at least 5% of the Original Amount. The Principal Shareholders may also assign such right to their affiliates. The Director Nomination Agreement also provides for certain consent rights for each of the Principal Shareholders so long as such
42

Table of Contents
shareholder owns at least 5% of the Original Amount, including for any increase to the size of our Board. Additionally, the Director Nomination Agreement prohibits us from increasing or decreasing the size of our Board without the prior written consent of the Principal Shareholders for so long as either of our Principal Shareholders holds at least 5% of the total outstanding voting power.
The Principal Shareholders and their affiliates engage in a broad spectrum of activities, including investments in the healthcare industry generally. In the ordinary course of their business activities, the Principal Shareholders and their affiliates may engage in activities where their interests conflict with our interests or those of our other shareholders, such as investing in or advising businesses that directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business or are suppliers or customers of ours. Our certificate of incorporation provides that neither the Principal Shareholders, any of their affiliates or any director who is not employed by us (including any non-employee director who serves as one of our officers in both her or his director and officer capacities) or its affiliates have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities or similar business activities or lines of business in which we operate. The Principal Shareholders also may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. In addition, the Principal Shareholders may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to you.
We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of Nasdaq and, as a result, we qualify for, and intend to continue relying on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. Therefore, you do not have the same protections as those afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such governance requirements.
The Principal Shareholders control a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”). Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including:
the requirement that a majority of our Board consist of independent directors;
the requirement that nominees to our Board are to be selected, or recommended for the Board’s selection, either by independent directors constituting a majority of the Board’s independent directors or by a nominations committee that is composed entirely of independent directors;
the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; and
the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the Board and its committees.
We currently utilize and intend to continue utilizing certain of these exemptions as long as they are available to us, and in the future, we could utilize additional exemptions. Accordingly, you do not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” and we have elected to comply with reduced public company reporting requirements, which could make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act and a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the Exchange Act. For as long as we continue to qualify as an emerging growth company, we are eligible for certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements. These exemptions include, but are not limited to, (i) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements, (iii) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved, and (iv) an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. Additionally, as long as we qualify as a smaller reporting company, we are required to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K.
We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years after the first sale of our common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which first occurred in March 2021. However, if certain events occur prior to the end of such five-year period, including if we become a “large
43

Table of Contents
accelerated filer,” our annual gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period, we would cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such five-year period. Additionally, even after we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company,” we may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company” if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is below $250 million (or $700 million if our annual revenue is less than $100 million) as of December 31 in any given year, which would allow us to continue taking advantage of these exemptions.
Our proxy statement for fiscal year 2023 will include reduced disclosure regarding executive compensation. In addition, we have chosen to take advantage of the extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. As a result, the information that we provide to holders of our common stock may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of reliance on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of any choice we make to reduce disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the market price for our common stock may be more volatile.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and distract our management, which could make it difficult to manage our business, particularly after we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” or a “smaller reporting company.”
As a newer public company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not previously incur. We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Compliance with these rules and regulations has increased our legal and financial compliance costs, made some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” or “smaller reporting company.” The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business, financial condition and results of operations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we establish and maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. Furthermore, the need to continue establishing the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may divert our management’s attention from implementing our business strategy, which could prevent us from improving our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have made, and will continue to make, changes to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and accounting systems to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. However, the measures we take may not be sufficient to satisfy our obligations as a public company. These additional obligations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We invest in resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of our management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and there could be a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As a result of becoming a public company, we are obligated to develop and maintain proper and effective internal controls over financial reporting in order to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may not complete our analysis of our internal controls over financial reporting in a timely manner, or these internal controls may not be determined to be effective, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us and, as a result, the value of our common stock. In addition, because of our status as an emerging growth company, you will not be able to depend on any attestation from our independent registered public accountants as to our internal controls over financial reporting for the foreseeable future.
As a public company, we are required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting in our annual reports. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by management in our internal controls over financial reporting. We are also required to disclose changes made in our internal controls and procedures on a quarterly basis. To comply with these requirements, we have and may further need to undertake various costly and time-consuming actions,
44

Table of Contents
such as implementing new controls and procedures and hiring additional accounting or internal audit staff. The process of designing and implementing internal controls over financial reporting required to comply with this requirement is time-consuming, costly and complicated. If during the evaluation and testing process we identify one or more other material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, our management will be unable to assert that our internal controls over financial reporting is effective. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Even if our management concludes that our internal controls over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed. However, our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest formally to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act or a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the Exchange Act. Accordingly, you will not be able to depend on any attestation concerning our internal controls over financial reporting from our independent registered public accountants for the foreseeable future.
The existence of any material weaknesses or significant deficiency in internal controls over financial reporting would require management to devote significant time and incur significant expenses to remediate any such issue and management may not be able to remediate the issue in a timely manner. The existence of any material weaknesses or significant deficiency could cause us to reissue our financial statements, fail to meet reporting deadlines or undermine shareholders’ confidence in our reported financial statements, all of which could materially and adversely impact our stock price.
We cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and any remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations. If we are not able to implement the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue an adverse opinion due to ineffective internal controls over financial reporting, and we may be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC. As a result, there could be a negative reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. In addition, we may be required to incur costs in improving our internal control system and the hiring of additional personnel. Any such action could negatively affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Our executive management team does not have extensive experience managing a public company.
Our executive management team does not have extensive experience managing a publicly-traded company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Our management team may not successfully or efficiently manage us as a public company that is subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These obligations and constituents require significant attention from our senior management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Provisions of our corporate governance documents could make an acquisition of us more difficult and may prevent attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management, even if beneficial to our shareholders.
In addition to the Principal Shareholders’ beneficial ownership of a combined 86% of our common stock, our Director Nomination Agreement, certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us without the consent of our Board or the Principal Shareholders, even if doing so might be beneficial to our shareholders. Among other things, these provisions:
allow us to authorize the issuance of undesignated preferred stock, the terms of which may be established and the shares of which may be issued without shareholder approval, and which may include supermajority voting, special approval, dividend, or other rights or preferences superior to the rights of shareholders;
provide for a classified board of directors with staggered three-year terms;
prohibit shareholder action by written consent from and after the date on which the Principal Shareholders beneficially own, in the aggregate, less than 35% of our common stock then outstanding;
45

Table of Contents
provide that, from and after the date on which the Principal Shareholders beneficially own less than 50% of our common stock then outstanding, any amendment, alteration, rescission or repeal of our bylaws by our shareholders will require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 6623% in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of our stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class; and
establish advance notice requirements for nominations for elections to our Board or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by shareholders at shareholder meetings, provided, however, that at any time when a Principal Shareholder beneficially owns at least 5% of our common stock then outstanding, such advance notice procedure will not apply to such Principal Shareholder.
Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision that provides us with protections similar to Section 203 of the DGCL, and prevents us from engaging in a business combination with a person (excluding the Principal Shareholders and any of their direct or indirect transferees and any group as to which such persons are a party) who acquires at least 85% of our common stock for a period of three years from the date such person acquired such common stock, unless Board or shareholder approval is obtained prior to the acquisition. These provisions could discourage, delay or prevent a transaction involving a change in control of our Company. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors of your choosing and cause us to take other corporate actions you desire, including actions that you may deem advantageous, or negatively affect the trading price of our common stock. In addition, because our Board is responsible for appointing the members of our management team, these provisions could in turn affect any attempt by our shareholders to replace current members of our management team.
These and other provisions in our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law could make it more difficult for shareholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our Board or initiate actions that are opposed by our then-current Board, including delay or impede a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving our Company. The existence of these provisions could negatively affect the price of our common stock and limit opportunities for you to realize value in a corporate transaction.
Our certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by our shareholders and the federal district courts of the United States as the exclusive forum for litigation arising under the Securities Act, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.
Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by, or other wrongdoing by, any our directors, officers, employees or agents to us or our stockholders, creditors or other constituents, or a claim of aiding and abetting any such breach of fiduciary duty, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the us or any of our directors or officers or other employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our certificate of incorporation or our Bylaws (as either may be amended, restated, modified, supplemented or waived from time to time), (iv) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws, (v) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors or officers or other employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine or (vi) any action asserting an “internal corporate claim” as that term is defined in Section 115 of the DGCL. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. However, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder; accordingly, we cannot be certain that a court would enforce such provision. Our certificate of incorporation further provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock is deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation described above; however, our shareholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. The forum selection provisions in our certificate of incorporation may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against us or our directors and officers and may limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us. If the enforceability of our forum selection provision were to be challenged, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such a challenge. While we currently have no basis to expect any such challenge would be successful, if a court were to find our forum selection provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable, we may incur additional costs associated with having to litigate in other jurisdictions, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our employees, management and Board.

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict and could cause such results to fall below any guidance we provide.
Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes it difficult for us to predict our future operating results. These fluctuations may be driven by a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including, but not limited to:
•    our ability to execute our growth strategy, including our ability to identify and successfully complete acquisition and expand via de novo centers within existing and new markets;
•    our inability to control expenses and increases to the cost of care, including as a result of the composition of our participant pool, macroeconomic factors such as such as labor shortages, high inflation, and COVID-19;
•    the results of current and future, routine and non-routine inspections, reviews, audits and investigations under federal and state government programs and contracts, and any resulting sanctions or remediation efforts as a result of such government actions; and
•    legal proceedings, enforcement actions and litigation, malpractice and privacy disputes to which we are currently and may in the future be party to.

The impact of any one of the factors discussed above or any other factors discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, or the cumulative effects of a combination of such factors, could result in significant fluctuations and unpredictability in our quarterly and annual operating results. As a result of such variability and unpredictability, we may also fail to meet the expectations of industry or financial analysts or investors for any period. If our revenue or operating results could fall short of our expectations or any guidance we provide. We may also fail to meet the expectations of industry or financial analysts or investors for any period. If the guidance we provide falls short or we are unable to meet the expectations of analysts or investors, the trading price of our common stock could decline substantially.
Our operating results and stock price are volatile.
The price of our common stock has significantly fluctuated since our IPO ranging from a high of $26.04 in March 2021 to a low of $3.5 in September 2022. In addition, securities markets worldwide have experienced, and are likely to continue to experience, significant price and volume fluctuations. This market volatility, as well as general economic, market or political conditions, could continue to subject the market price of our shares to wide price fluctuations regardless of our operating performance. In addition, our operating results and the trading price of our shares may fluctuate in response to various factors, including:
developments and results of audits, sanctions, investigations and litigation;
market conditions in our industry or the broader stock market;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial and operating results;
introduction of new solutions or services by us or our competitors;
issuance of new or changed securities analysts’ reports or recommendations;
sales, or anticipated sales, of large blocks of our stock;
additions or departures of key personnel;
regulatory or political developments;
litigation and governmental investigations;
changing economic conditions;
investors’ perception of us and our prospects;

events beyond our control such as inflationary pressures, increased interest rates, weather, public health events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and war, including uncertainties surrounding the Russia and Ukraine war; and
any default on our indebtedness.
These and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause our operating results and the market price and demand for our shares to fluctuate substantially. Fluctuations in our quarterly operating results could limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares and may otherwise negatively affect the market price and liquidity of our shares. In addition, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock sometimes institute securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. Such lawsuits have been filed against the Company. The outcome of these proceedings is unknown. See Part I, Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” for more information. We incur substantial costs defending against these lawsuits. Such lawsuits also divert the time and attention of our management from our business, which could significantly harm our profitability and reputation.
A significant portion of our total outstanding shares may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock. As of June 30, 2023, we had 135,639,845 outstanding shares of common stock. All of the shares of common stock sold in our IPO are available for sale in the public market. In addition, we have registered shares of common stock that we may issue under our equity compensation plans. Such shares can be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to vesting, and Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The market price of our common stock could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.
Additionally, we are party to a registration rights agreement with TCO Group Holdings, L.P., the investment vehicle through which the Principal Shareholders hold their investment, which requires us to effect the registration of the Principal Shareholders’ shares in certain circumstances. The Principal Shareholders are also entitled to participate in certain of our registered offerings, subject to the restrictions in the registration rights agreement. These registration rights would facilitate the resale of such securities into the public market, and any such resale would increase the number of shares of our common stock available for public trading.
In the future, we may also issue our securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The number of shares issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding common stock.
Because we have no plans to pay regular cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.
We do not anticipate paying any regular cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors that our Board may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends is, and may be, limited by covenants of existing and any future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. Therefore, any return on investment in our common stock is solely dependent upon the appreciation of the price of our common stock on the open market, which may not occur.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our shares or if our results of operations do not meet their expectations, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our shares is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. Moreover, analysts have in the past downgraded, and may in the future downgrade our stock, or if our results of operations do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.

Table of Contents
We may issue shares of preferred stock in the future, which could make it difficult for another company to acquire us or could otherwise adversely affect holders of our common stock, which could depress the price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue one or more series of preferred stock. Our Board has the authority to determine the preferences, limitations and relative rights of the shares of preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series, without any further vote or action by our shareholders. Our preferred stock could be issued with voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to the rights of our common stock. The potential issuance of preferred stock may delay or prevent a change in control of us, discouraging bids for our common stock at a premium to the market price, and materially adversely affect the market price and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock.
Future offerings of debt or equity securities by us may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
In the future, we may attempt to obtain financing or to further increase our capital resources by issuing additional shares of our common stock or offering debt or other equity securities, including senior or subordinated notes, debt securities convertible into equity or shares of preferred stock. In addition, we may seek to expand operations in the future to other markets which we would expect to finance through a combination of additional issuances of equity, corporate indebtedness and/or cash from operations.
Issuing additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities or securities convertible into equity may dilute the economic and voting rights of our existing stockholders or reduce the market price of our common stock or both. Upon liquidation, holders of such debt securities and preferred shares, if issued, and lenders with respect to other borrowings would receive a distribution of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Debt securities convertible into equity could be subject to adjustments in the conversion ratio pursuant to which certain events may increase the number of equity securities issuable upon conversion. Preferred shares, if issued, could have a preference with respect to liquidating distributions or a preference with respect to dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to the holders of our common stock. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, which may adversely affect the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, holders of our common stock bear the risk that our future offerings may reduce the market price of our common stock and dilute their stockholdings in us.
General Risk Factors
If we are not able to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand recognition, our business and results of operations will be harmed.
We believe that maintaining and enhancing the InnovAge reputation and its brand recognition is critical to our relationships with our stakeholders and to our ability to attract new participants. The promotion of our brand may require us to make substantial investments, and we anticipate that, as our market becomes increasingly competitive, these marketing initiatives may become increasingly difficult and expensive. Our marketing activities may not be successful or yield increased revenue, and to the extent that these activities yield increased revenue, the increased revenue may not offset the expenses we incur and our results of operations could be harmed. We have made efforts to protect our brand through trademark registration, but we cannot guarantee that these efforts will prevent third parties from infringing our trademarks or using trademarks confusingly similar to ours, nor can we guarantee we will be successful in obtaining or maintaining trademark registrations that we believe are important to our business. If we cannot stop third parties from using trademarks confusingly similar to ours, patients and others could be confused and our reputation could be harmed.
In addition, factors such as failing to meet the expectations of or provide quality medical care for our participants, adverse cyber or data security events, adverse publicity or litigation involving or surrounding us, one of our centers or our management, such as news articles and market rumors with respect to audits, litigation and other processes described in these risk factors, have diminished and may in the future diminish our reputation or that of our management and have harmed and may in the future harm our brand, making it substantially more difficult for us to attract new participants. Similarly, because our existing participants and their families often act as references for us with prospective new participants, any existing participant or family member of a participant that questions the quality of our care could impair our ability to secure additional new participants. In addition, negative publicity resulting from any adverse government payor audit could further injure our brand and reputation. If we do not successfully enhance our reputation and brand recognition, our business may not grow and we could lose our relationships with participants, which would harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Disruptions in our disaster recovery systems or business continuity planning could limit our ability to operate our business effectively.
Our information technology systems facilitate our ability to conduct our business. While we have disaster recovery systems and business continuity plans in place, any disruptions in our disaster recovery systems or the failure of these systems to operate as expected could, depending on the magnitude of the problem, adversely affect our operating results by limiting our capacity to effectively monitor and control our operations. Despite our implementation of a variety of security measures, our information technology systems could be subject to physical or electronic break-ins, ransomware and other cybersecurity incidents and similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering or any weather-related disruptions in Denver, Colorado, where our headquarters is located. In addition, in the event that a significant number of our management personnel were unavailable in the event of a disaster, our ability to effectively conduct business could be adversely affected.
Negative publicity regarding the managed healthcare industry generally could adversely affect our results of operations or business.
Negative publicity regarding the managed healthcare industry generally, or the PACE program in particular, may result in increased regulation and legislative review of industry practices that further increase our costs of doing business and adversely affect our results of operations or business by:
requiring us to change our integrated healthcare services model;
increasing the regulatory, including compliance, burdens under which we operate, which, in turn, may negatively impact the manner in which we provide services and increase our costs of providing services;
adversely affecting our ability to market our products or services through the imposition of further regulatory restrictions or guidelines regarding the manner in which plans and providers market to PACE enrollees; or
adversely affecting our ability to attract and retain participants.
Item 1B.    UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Not Applicable.
Item 2.    PROPERTIES
As of June 30, 2023, we operated an aggregate of 17 centers, of which 10 were owned and seven were leased, representing approximately 410,000 and 140,000 gross square feet, respectively. Our centers are located in 11 markets and five states.
Our principal executive offices are located in Denver, Colorado, where we own facilities totaling approximately 290,000 square feet across the state. We occupy a 69,000 square foot facility for administration, sales and marketing, technology and development and professional services in Denver, Colorado. We also own and lease properties for operational PACE centers in Denver, Colorado; Pueblo, Colorado; Loveland, Colorado; Albuquerque, New Mexico; San Bernardino, California; Sacramento, California; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Roanoke, Virginia; Richmond, Virginia; Newport News, Virginia; and Charlottesville, Virginia. We do not have any PACE centers or properties located outside of the United States.
Our leases typically have terms of nine years, and generally provide for renewal or extension options for an average total potential term of approximately 25 years. Our lease obligations often include annual fixed rent escalators ranging between 2.0% and 3.0%. Generally, our leases are “modified gross” leases, which require us to pay the cost of insurance, taxes, maintenance and utilities, but not for costs related to the structure of the building. We generally cannot cancel these leases at our option.
We believe that our facilities and centers are adequate to meet our needs for the immediate future, and that, should it be needed, suitable additional space will be available to accommodate any such expansion of our operations.
Item 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may be involved in various legal proceedings and subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.

Civil Investigative Demands
In July 2021, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Attorney General for the State of Colorado under the Colorado Medicaid False Claims Act. The demand requests information and documents regarding Medicaid billing, patient services and referrals in connection with the Company’s PACE program in Colorado. The Company continues to fully cooperate with the Attorney General and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.
In February 2022, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) under the Federal False Claims Act on similar subject matter. The demand requests information and documents regarding audits, billing, orders tracking, and quality and timeliness of patient services in connection with the Company’s PACE programs in the states where the Company operates (California, Colorado, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Virginia). In December 2022, the Company received a supplemental civil investigative demand requesting supplemental information on the same matters. The Company continues to fully cooperate with the DOJ and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.
Stockholder Lawsuits
On October 14, 2021, and subsequently amended on June 21, 2022, the Company was named as a defendant in a putative class action complaint filed in the District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of individuals who purchased or acquired shares of the Company’s common stock during a specified period (the “Securities Action”). Through the complaint, plaintiffs are asserting claims against the Company, certain of the Company’s officers and directors, Apax Partners, L.P., Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, and the underwriters in the Company’s IPO, alleging violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for making allegedly inaccurate and misleading statements and omissions in connection with the Company’s IPO and subsequent earnings calls and public filings, and seeking compensatory damages, among other things. On September 13, 2022, the Company and the officer and director defendants and Apax Partners, L.P. and Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
On April 20, 2022, the Board of Directors received a books and records demand pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, from a purported stockholder of the Company, Brian Hall, in connection with the stockholder’s investigation of, among other matters, potential breaches of fiduciary duty, mismanagement, self-dealing, corporate waste or other violations of law by the Company’s Board with respect to these matters. On May 15, 2023, Mr. Hall filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery asserting derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty against certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors generally relating to alleged failures by the defendants to take remedial actions to address the matters that resulted in sanctions by CMS at certain of the Company’s centers, and alleged misstatements in the Company’s public filings relating to those matters. On June 28, 2023, upon stipulation of the parties, the court entered an order staying the litigation pending the resolution of the motion to dismiss in the Securities Action or upon fifteen days’ notice by any party to the litigation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of these matters.
Other Matters
In the third fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company agreed to settle a wage and hour class action lawsuit in the State of California for a cash payment of $1.2 million. The agreement is subject to court approval.
Because the results of legal proceedings and claims are inherently unpredictable and uncertain, we are currently unable to predict whether the legal proceedings we are involved in will, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or cash flows. The outcomes of legal proceedings and claims could be material to the Company’s operating results for any particular period, depending in part, upon the operating results of such period. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has the potential to have an adverse impact on us due to any related defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

Securities Market Information
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “INNV.”
Holders of Record
As of September 11, 2023, there were approximately seven stockholders of record for our common stock. The actual number of stockholders is greater than this number of record holders, and includes stockholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held in street name by economic banks, brokers and other financial institutions. This number of holders of record also does not include stockholders whose shares may be held in trust by other entities.
Dividend Policy
We have not paid cash dividends since our initial public offering and currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business and to repay indebtedness and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Additionally, because we are a holding company, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make distributions to us. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board, subject to compliance with covenants in current and future agreements governing our and our subsidiaries’ indebtedness, and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that our Board may deem relevant.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the year ended June 30, 2023, except as previously reported.

Item 7.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis summarizes the significant factors affecting the consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of our company as of and for the periods presented below. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur in the future and actual results could differ materially from those discussed in or implied by forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
General
InnovAge Holding Corp. (“InnovAge”), formerly TCO Group Holdings, Inc., became a public company in March 2021. The Company served approximately 6,400 PACE participants as of June 30, 2023, making it the largest PACE provider in the U.S. based upon participants served, and operates 17 PACE centers across Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia. During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company consolidated its Germantown LIFE center with its Allegheny and Henry Avenue LIFE centers in Pennsylvania.
Operations
InnovAge’s programs are designed to allow frail seniors to live life on their terms by aging in place, in their own homes and communities, for as long as safely possible. Through our Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (“PACE”) program, we fulfill a broad range of medical and ancillary services for seniors, including in-home care services (skilled, unskilled and personal care), center services such as primary care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, dental services, mental health and psychiatric services, meals, and activities; transportation to and from the PACE center and third-party medical appointments; and care management. The Company manages its business as one reportable segment, PACE.
We are the leading healthcare delivery platform by number of participants focused on providing all-inclusive, capitated care to high-cost, dual-eligible seniors. Our programs are designed to directly address two of the most pressing challenges facing the U.S. healthcare industry: rising costs and poor outcomes. Our participant-centered care delivery approach is designed to improve the quality of care our participants receive, while keeping them in their homes for as long as safely possible and reducing over-utilization of high-cost care settings such as hospitals and nursing homes. Our participant-centered approach is led by our Interdisciplinary Care Teams (“IDTs”), who design, manage and coordinate each participant’s personalized care plan. We directly manage and are responsible for all healthcare needs and associated costs for our participants, including housing costs, where applicable. We directly contract with government payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and do not rely on third-party administrative organizations or health plans. We believe our model aligns with how healthcare is evolving, namely (i) the shift toward value-based care, in which coordinated, outcomes-driven, quality care is delivered while reducing unnecessary spend, (ii) eliminating excessive administrative costs by contracting directly with the government, (iii) focusing on the participant experience and (iv) addressing social determinants of health.
Trends and Uncertainties Affecting the Company
During fiscal year 2023, the U.S. and global economies experienced adverse macroeconomic effects in part resulting from the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as discussed in more detail below. In fiscal year 2022 and 2023, in response to high levels of inflation, we implemented various mitigation strategies to reduce costs of operation, including consolidating services and price negotiations with providers and vendors. While inflationary pressures eased significantly during the second half of fiscal year 2023, high inflation is expected to continue through the remainder of the calendar year. The effects of inflation, after accounting for these mitigation strategies, were immaterial to our financial results for fiscal year 2023. Although we expect to continue mitigation efforts in fiscal year 2024, there can be no assurance that our strategies will be sufficient.
53

Table of Contents
In fiscal year 2023, operating expenses increased $34.4 million, or 4.9%, compared to 2022 due to the increased cost of care and related cost per participant as a result of increased salaries, wages and benefits associated with increased headcount and higher wage rates resulting from inflation, third party audit and compliance support, and increased fleet and contract transportation due to an increase in average daily attendance, external appointments, and higher fuel costs. In fiscal year 2023, we launched and conducted several initiatives intended to lower certain of our costs, including limiting corporate staffing, effecting a reduction in workforce in December 2022, and optimizing working capital. We expect to continue to experience elevated operating expenses during fiscal year 2024 for similar reasons. We continue to evaluate increased costs and methods to mitigate or offset such costs.
Impact of Macroeconomic Conditions and COVID-19
Census and capitation revenue. On May 11, 2023 the President allowed the national emergency and public health emergency declarations related to the COVID-19 pandemic to expire. The declarations had been in place since early 2020, and in addition to various Congress enacted legislation allowed the federal government flexibility to waive or modify certain requirements in a range of areas, including Medicare and Medicaid. At this time, we do not believe material census attrition will occur as a result of the expiration of the public health emergency declarations and the resumption of Medicaid’s redetermination of beneficiary eligibility. The frailty level of PACE participants coupled with the complexity of Medicaid services needed, results in a comprehensive financial qualifications review compared to the more traditional Medicaid-only population. Throughout the public health emergency, the Company continued to complete annual Medicaid redeterminations. This process enables the Company to monitor eligibility, assist with the redetermination process, address potential issues with eligibility in real time, and track future renewal dates. While we do not believe that the expiration of these emergency declarations will have a material impact to our financial results, we continue to evaluate how the expiration of these emergency declarations may affect our business outlook.
Expenses. During the COVID-19 pandemic, global logistics network challenges resulted in higher prices for medical supplies we require. However, supply chain disruptions improved to almost pre-pandemic level during the course of fiscal year 2023. As a result, prices for most medical supplies have normalized.
Labor market. The COVID-19 pandemic and high inflation exacerbated difficulties to hire additional healthcare professionals, causing certain of our centers to be understaffed or staffed with personnel that required training. Labor pressure mostly eased during fiscal year 2023; however, the Company continues to be affected by the increased competition in the labor market and market adjustments to increase retention and improve our ability to hire. These market adjustments contributed, in part, to an increase in cost of care for fiscal year 2023, further impacted by additional staffing related to compliance and remediation efforts. These increases resulted in increased cost of care for fiscal year 2023 compared to fiscal year 2022 as discussed in “Results of Operations” below. We continue to assess key roles and benchmarks to market while monitoring trends in the labor market.
Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
Our historical financial performance has been, and we expect our financial performance in the future to be, driven by the following factors:
Our ability to effectively implement post-sanction remediation efforts in our centers as a result of our recent audits and maintain high quality of regulatory compliance. The Company’s priority is to continue to remediate the deficiencies raised in audit processes and to implement post-sanction corrective actions as required, as well as maintain high quality of regulatory compliance in all its centers. As part of its actions to do so, the Company has worked with the appropriate regulators to make the necessary changes within the Company to improve care coordination and care documentation among our centers, including working to fill critical personnel gaps at our centers, standardizing the process of our IDTs, strengthening our home care network and reliability, improving timelines of scheduling and coordinating care with providers outside our centers, among others.
Our participants. We focus on providing all-inclusive care to frail, high-cost, dual-eligible seniors. We directly contract with government payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, through PACE and receive a capitated risk-adjusted payment to manage the totality of a participant’s medical care across all settings. InnovAge manages participants that are, on average, more complex and medically fragile than other Medicare-eligible patients, including those in Medicare Advantage (“MA”) programs. As a result, we receive larger payments for our participants compared to MA participants. This is driven by two factors: (i) we manage a higher acuity population, with an average RAF score of 2.46 based on InnovAge data as of June 30,
54

Table of Contents
2023, compared to an average RAF score of 1.08 for Medicare fee-for-service non-dual enrollees, as calculated in an analysis by Avalere Health in June 2020 of a cohort of individuals enrolled in Medicare Fee-for-Service in 2020; and (ii) we manage Medicaid spend in addition to Medicare. Our participants are managed on a capitated, or at-risk, basis, where InnovAge is financially responsible for all of participant medical costs. Our comprehensive care model and globally capitated payments are designed to cover participants from enrollment until the end of life, including coverage for participants requiring hospice and palliative care. For dual-eligible participants, we receive PMPM payments directly from Medicare and Medicaid, which provides recurring revenue streams and significant visibility into our revenue. The Medicare portion of our capitated payment is risk-based on the underlying medical conditions and frailty of each participant. In fiscal year 2023, we began working on expanding payer capabilities so that our revenue more accurately reflects the acuity of the populations we serve.
Our ability to grow enrollment and capacity within existing centers. We believe all seniors should have access to the type of all-inclusive care offered by the PACE model. Several factors can affect our ability to grow enrollment and capacity within existing centers, including sanctions issued by regulators. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Related to Our Business—We face inspections, reviews, audits and investigations under federal and state government programs and contracts. These audits require corrective actions and have resulted in adverse findings that have negatively affected and may continue to affect our business, including our results of operations, liquidity, financial condition and reputation.”
Our ability to maintain high participant satisfaction and retention. Our comprehensive individualized care model and frequency of interaction with participants generates high levels of participant satisfaction. We achieved a 78% participant satisfaction rating as of March 1, 2023 and average participant tenure was 3.7 years as of June 30, 2023, measured as tenure from enrollment to disenrollment, among our centers that have been operated by us for at least five years. Furthermore, we experience low levels of voluntary disenrollment, averaging 5.9% annually over the last three fiscal years. Approximately 71% of our historical disenrollments have been involuntary, due primarily to participant death or otherwise due to participants moving out of our service areas.
Effectively managing the cost of care for our participants. We receive capitated payments to manage the totality of a participant’s medical care across all settings. Our participants are among the most frail and medically complex individuals in the U.S. healthcare system and average acuity rises with the passage of time. The risk pool of our population became more acute in fiscal year 2023 as we were not able to replenish our population mix with newer, lower-acuity participants as a result of State sanctions, and as a result, our external provider costs and cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, represented approximately 85% of our revenue in the year ended June 30, 2023. In addition, while we are liable for potentially large medical claims, our care model focuses on delivering high-quality medical care in cost efficient, community-based settings as a means of avoiding costly inpatient and outpatient services. However, our participants retain the freedom to seek care at sites of their choice, including hospitals and emergency rooms; we do not restrict participant access to care.
Center-level Contribution Margin. The enrollment sanctions in Sacramento, California and Colorado limited our ability to grow our participant census and impacted Center-level Contribution Margin in fiscal year 2022 and the first half of fiscal year 2023. As we serve more participants in existing centers, we expect to leverage our fixed cost base at those centers and increase the value of a center to our business increases over time.
Our ability to expand via de novo centers within existing and new markets. Several factors can affect our ability to open de novo centers, including sanctions issued by regulators as the ones we were subject to in our Sacramento, California and Colorado centers. As a result of such sanctions, we were precluded from, or voluntarily suspended efforts to, open de novo centers in Florida, Kentucky and Indiana. Since the Company was released from sanctions, in Florida, we have recommenced our efforts to obtain the licensure required to open a PACE center in each of Tampa and Orlando. We are also pursuing the licensure required to open another PACE center in Downey, California.
Execute tuck-in acquisitions. From fiscal year 2019 through fiscal year 2021, we acquired and integrated three PACE organizations, expanding our InnovAge Platform to one new state and four new markets through those acquisitions. Since the Company was released from sanctions, we have recommenced our efforts to pursue tuck-in acquisitions. We remain disciplined in our approach to acquisitions and in the past have executed multiple types of transactions, including turnarounds and non-profit conversions. Historically, when
55

Table of Contents
integrating acquired programs, we worked closely with key constituencies, including local governments, health systems and senior housing providers, to enable continuity of high-quality care for participants.
Contracting with government payors. Our economic model relies on our capitated arrangements with government payors, namely Medicare and Medicaid. We view the government not only as a payor but also as a key partner in our efforts to expand into new geographies and access more participants in our existing markets. Maintaining, supporting and growing these relationships, in existing markets as well as new geographies, is critical to our long-term success.
Investing to support growth. We intend to continue investing in our centers, value-based care model, and sales and marketing organization to support long-term growth. We expect our expenses to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future to support our growth and due to additional costs we are incurring in connection with current and future audits to our centers, remediation plans and current and potential legal and regulatory proceedings. We plan to invest in future growth judiciously and maintain focus on managing our results of operations. We have begun to invest in building capabilities to increase our sophistication as a payor to drive clinical value, improve outcomes, and manage cost trends. Accordingly, in the short term we expect the activities noted above to increase our expenses as a percentage of revenue, but in the longer term, we anticipate that these investments will positively impact our business and results of operations.
Seasonality to our business. Our operational and financial results, including medical costs and per-participant revenue true-ups, will experience some variability depending upon the time of year in which they are measured. Medical costs vary most significantly as a result of (i) the weather, with certain illnesses, such as the influenza and COVID-19 viruses, being more prevalent during colder months of the year, which generally increases per-participant costs and (ii) the number of business days in a period, with shorter periods generally having lower medical costs all else equal. Per-participant revenue true-ups represent the difference between our estimate of per-participant capitation revenue to be received and actual revenue received by CMS, which is based on CMS’s determination of a participant’s RAF score as measured twice per year and is based on the evolving acuity of a participant. Based on the difference between our estimate and the final determination from CMS, we may receive incremental true up revenue or be required to repay certain amounts. Historically, these true-up payments typically occur between May and August, but the timing of these payments is determined by CMS, and we have neither visibility into nor control over the timing of such payments.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Capitation Revenue. In order to provide comprehensive services to manage the totality of a participant’s medical care across all settings, we receive fixed or capitated fees per participant that are paid monthly by Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Affairs (“VA”) and private pay sources. The concentration of capitation revenue from our various payors was:
20232022
Medicaid54 %54 %
Medicare46 %46 %
Private pay and other*%*%
Total100 %100 %
*denotes less than 1%
Medicaid and Medicare capitation revenues are based on PMPM capitation rates under the PACE program. The PACE state contracts between us and the respective state Medicaid administering agency are amended annually each June 30 in all states other than California and Pennsylvania, which contract on a calendar-year basis. We are currently operating in good standing under each of our PACE state contracts. For a discussion of our revenue recognition policies, please see Critical Accounting Estimates below and Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Other Service Revenue. Other service revenue primarily consists of revenues derived from fee-for-service arrangements, state food grants, rent revenues and management fees. Prior to June 30, 2022, we generated fee-for-service revenue from providing home-care services to non-PACE patients in their homes, for which we bill the patient or their insurance plan on a fee-for-service basis. We no longer offer in-home care services to non-PACE patients. For a discussion

of our revenue recognition policies, please see Critical Accounting Estimates below and Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Operating Expenses
External Provider Costs. External provider costs consist primarily of the costs for medical care provided by non-InnovAge providers. We separate external provider costs into four categories: inpatient (e.g., hospital), housing (e.g., assisted living and skilled nursing facility), outpatient and pharmacy. In aggregate, external provider costs represent the largest portion of our expenses.
Cost of Care, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization. Cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, includes the costs we incur to operate our care delivery model. This includes costs related to salaries, wages and benefits for IDT and other center-level staff, participant transportation, medical supplies, occupancy, insurance and other operating costs. IDT employees include medical doctors, registered nurses, social workers, physical, occupational, and speech therapists, nursing assistants, and transportation workers. Other center-level employees include clinic managers, dieticians, activity assistants and certified nursing assistants. Cost of care excludes any expenses associated with sales and marketing activities incurred at a local level as well as any allocation of our corporate, general and administrative expenses. A portion of our cost of care, including our employee-related costs, is directly related to the number of participants cared for in a center. The remainder of our cost of care is fixed relative to the number of participants we serve, such as occupancy and insurance expenses. As a result, as revenue increases due to census growth, cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, moderately decreases as a percentage of revenue. As we open new centers, we expect cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, to increase in absolute dollars due to higher census and facility related costs.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist of employee-related expenses, including salaries, commissions, and employee benefits costs, for all employees engaged in marketing, sales, community outreach and sales support. These employee-related expenses capture all costs for both our field-based and corporate sales and marketing teams. Sales and marketing expenses also include local and centralized advertising costs, as well as the infrastructure required to support our marketing efforts. We expect these costs to increase in absolute dollars over time as we continue to grow our participant census. We evaluate our sales and marketing expenses relative to our participant growth and will invest more heavily in sales and marketing from time-to-time to the extent we believe such investment can accelerate our growth without negatively affecting profitability.
Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses. Corporate, general and administrative expenses include employee-related expenses, including salaries and related costs. In addition, general and administrative expenses include all corporate technology and occupancy costs associated with our corporate office. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars due to the additional legal, accounting, insurance, investor relations and other costs that we incur as a public company, as well as other costs associated with compliance and continuing to grow our business. However, we anticipate general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue over the long term, although such expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of revenue from period to period due to the timing and amount of these expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are primarily attributable to our buildings and leasehold improvements and our equipment and vehicles. Depreciation and amortization are recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of estimated useful life or lease terms, to the extent the assets are being leased.

Total revenues$688,087$698,640$(10,553)(1.5)%
Capitation revenue. Capitation revenue was $686.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $10.2 million, or 1.5%, compared to $697.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was driven by a 6.6% decrease in member months (as defined below under “Key Business Metrics and non-GAAP Measures – Total member months”) partially offset by a 5.5% increase in capitation rates. The decrease in member months is primarily due to disenrollments and our inability to enroll new participants at our Sacramento, California center for the majority of the year ended June 30, 2023 as a result of sanctions, minimally offset by the ramp up of enrollments at our Colorado centers as we resumed the enrollment process in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in capitation rates was primarily driven by an annual increase in both Medicaid capitation rates as determined by the States and Medicare capitation rates as a result of increased risk score and county rates partially offset by the reinstatement of sequestration.

External provider costs. External provider costs were $374.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $8.5 million, or 2.2%, compared to $383.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by (i) a decrease of $25.2 million, or 6.6% in member months partially offset by an increase of $16.7 million, or 4.7%, in cost per participant. The increase in cost per participant is primarily driven by a $13.7 million increase associated with increased assisted living and nursing facility utilization and unit cost partially offset by a $3.2 million reduction in inpatient cost per admit associated with fewer COVID admissions.
Cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization. Cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization expense was $212.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $32.0 million, or 17.8%, compared to $180.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase of $43.9 million, or 26.1%, in cost per participant partially offset by a decrease of $11.9 million, or 6.6%, in member months. The increase in cost per participant was driven by (i) a $21.6 million increase in salaries, wages and benefits associated with increased headcount and higher wage rates due to the ongoing competitive labor market, (ii) $2.5 million in third party audit and compliance support, (iii) $3.9 million in increased fleet expense and contract transportation as a result of higher average daily attendance, an increase in external appointments, and higher fuel costs, (iv) $1.9 million in increased building maintenance and security, (v) $1.3 million in supplies, travel and mileage, and (vi) $1.0 million in de novo rent expense.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses were $19.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 18.9%, compared to $24.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to (i) a $1.7 million reduction in marketing spend and $2.0 million reduction in costs associated with fewer headcount within the sales department, both as a result of sanctions in our Colorado and Sacramento, California centers and (ii) a $0.9 million reduction in sales commissions expense due to the deferral of commissions.
Corporate, general and administrative expenses. Corporate, general and administrative expenses were $115.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $14.0 million, or 13.8% compared to $101.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to (i) a $11.0 million increase in employee compensation and benefits as the result of an increase in headcount to support compliance and bolster organizational capabilities, (ii) $3.8 million in third party costs associated with implementing our core provider initiatives, assessing our risk-bearing payer capabilities, and strengthening organizational capabilities including the transition to a new electronic medical record ("EMR"), (iii) $4.5 million in legal spend, and (iv) $4.9 million in software license and maintenance expense, inclusive of Epic license fees. These increases in cost were partially offset by (i) a $2.8 million reduction in bad debt expense, (ii) $1.2 million reduction in insurance expense, and (iii) $4.1 million in executive severance and recruiting recognized during the year ended June 30, 2022.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $15.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $1.5 million, or 10.7%, compared to $13.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. The increase in depreciation expense was a result of capital additions in the normal course of business.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, consists primarily of interest payments on our outstanding borrowings, net of interest income earned on our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Interest expense, net was $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 39.7%, compared to $2.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to interest income of $3.4 million from money market funds offsetting interest expense of $4.9 million during the year ended June 30, 2023. Interest income during the year ended June 30, 2022 was negligible.
Provision for Income Taxes.
The Company and its subsidiaries calculate federal and state income taxes currently payable and for deferred income taxes arising from temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured pursuant to enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment. The members of InnovAge Senior Housing Thornton, LLC (“SH1”) and InnovAge Sacramento have elected to be taxed as partnerships, and no provision for income taxes for SH1 or InnovAge Sacramento is included in these consolidated financial statements
A valuation allowance is provided to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax benefits from uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalty expense associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of provision for income taxes.
During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we reported provision for income taxes of $(7.2) million and $0.7 million, respectively. The decrease of $7.9 million is primarily due to (i) pretax book loss recognized during the year ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the pretax book loss recognized during the year ended June 30, 2022 and (ii) the change in our valuation allowance.
Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests.
InnovAge Senior Housing Thornton, LLC is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company is the primary beneficiary of SH1 and consolidates SH1. The Company is the primary beneficiary of SH1 because it has the power to direct the activities that are most significant to SH1 and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from SH1. The most significant activity of SH1 is the operation of the housing facility. The Company has provided a subordinated loan to SH1 and has provided a guarantee for the convertible term loan held by SH1. The SH1 interest is reflected within equity as noncontrolling interests. Our share of earnings is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.
Net Income (Loss)
During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we reported net loss of $43.6 million and $8.0 million, respectively, consisting of (i) loss from operations of $49.4 million and $4.4 million, respectively, (ii) other expense of $1.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively, and (iii) provision for income taxes of $7.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, each as described above.

Key Business Metrics and Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to our GAAP financial information, we review a number of operating and financial metrics, including the following key metrics and non-GAAP measures, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. We believe these metrics provide additional perspective and insights when analyzing our core operating performance from period to period and evaluating trends in historical operating results. These key business metrics and non-GAAP measures should not be considered superior to, or a substitute for, and should be read in conjunction with, the GAAP financial information presented herein. These measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled performance indicators used by other companies.

(c)Center-level Contribution Margin, Center-level Contribution Margin as a percentage of revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. For a definition and reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most closely comparable GAAP measures for the period indicated, see below.
Centers
We define our centers as those centers open for business and attending to participants at the end of a particular period.
Census
Our census is comprised of our capitated participants for whom we are financially responsible for their total healthcare costs.
Total member months
We define Total Member Months as the total number of participants as of period end multiplied by the number of months within a year in which each participant was enrolled in our program. We believe this is a useful metric as it more precisely tracks the number of participants we serve throughout the year.
Center-level Contribution Margin
The Company’s management uses Center-level Contribution Margin as the measure for assessing performance of its segments. We define Center-level Contribution Margin as total revenues less external provider costs and cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization, which includes all medical and pharmacy costs. For purposes of evaluating Center-level Contribution Margin on a center-by-center basis, we do not allocate our sales and marketing expense or corporate, general and administrative expenses across our centers. Center-level Contribution Margin was $101.3 million and $135.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in Center-level Contribution

Table of Contents
Margin for fiscal year 2023 was primarily due to a year-over-year increase in cost of care of 17.8% and a 1.5% decrease in total revenue during the same period. For more information relating to Center-level Contribution Margin, see Note 13 “Segment Reporting” to our consolidated financial statements.

(1)Center-level Contribution Margin from segments below the quantitative thresholds are attributable to two operating segments of the Company. Those segments consist of Homecare and Senior Housing. Neither of those segments has ever met any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments.
(2)Overhead consists of the Sales and marketing and Corporate, general and administrative financial statement line items.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and provision (benefit) for income tax as well as addbacks for non-recurring expenses or exceptional items, including relating to management equity compensation, executive severance and recruitment, litigation costs and settlement, M&A and de novo center development, business optimization, and electronic medical record (“EMR”) implementation. Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of our total revenue.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our net loss was $43.6 million and $8.0 million, respectively, representing a year-over-year decline of 445%, and Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.3) million and $34.3 million, respectively, representing a year-over-year decline of 104%.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of our total revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2023, our net loss margin was 6.3%, as compared to our net loss margin of 1.1% for the year ended June 30, 2022. For the year ended June 30, 2023, our Adjusted EBITDA margin was (0.2%), as compared to our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the year ended June 30, 2022 of 4.9%.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are supplemental measures of operating performance monitored by management that are not defined under GAAP and that do not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net income (loss) and net income (loss) margin, respectively, as determined by GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are appropriate measures of operating performance because the metrics eliminate the impact of revenue and expenses that do not relate to our ongoing business performance and certain noncash expenses, allowing us to more effectively evaluate our core operating performance and trends from period to period. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin help investors and analysts in comparing our results across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the analysis of other GAAP financial measures, including net income (loss) and net income (loss) margin. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply

that our future results will be unaffected by the types of items excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Our use of the term Adjusted EBITDA varies from others in our industry.
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods is as follows:

Liquidity and capital resources
General
To date, we have financed our operations principally through cash flows from operations and through borrowings under our credit facilities, from the sale of common stock in our IPO that occurred in March 2021. As of the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $127.2 million and $184.4 million, respectively, a decrease of $57.2 million primarily due to purchases of property and equipment and short-term investments, consisting primarily of managed income funds invested in investment grade short-term fixed and floating rate debt securities aimed at creating income while maintaining low volatility on principal. Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of highly liquid investments in demand deposit accounts and cash.

Table of Contents
Our capital resources are generally used to fund (i) debt service requirements, the majority of which relate to the quarterly principal payments of the Term Loan Facility (as defined in Note 7 “Long-term Debt” to the audited consolidated financial statements) due 2026, (ii) finance and operating lease obligations, which are generally paid on a monthly basis and include maturities through 2028 and 2032, respectively, (iii) the operations of our business, including special projects such as our transition to a new EMR vendor, with respect to which we incurred non-recurring implementation costs over the last 12 months, and expect to incur ongoing costs through 2024 and beyond, and third party support to address remediation efforts, (iv) income tax payments, which are generally due on a quarterly and annual basis, and (v) capital additions, which included costs relating to the development of de novo centers, including those in Florida and California. We also will continue investing in the effective implementation of post-sanction corrective remediation plans (CAPs) and other corrective initiatives as a result of deficiencies found during our recent audits, and our ability to continually provide necessary and quality services to our participants. Collectively, these obligations are expected to represent a significant liquidity requirement of our Company on both a short-term (next 12 months) and long-term (beyond 12 months) basis. For additional information regarding our lease obligations, debt and commitments, see Notes 6 “Leases,” 7 “Long-term Debt,” and 9 “Commitments and Contingencies,” respectively, to our audited consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents and our cash flows from operations, available funds and access to financing sources, including our 2021 Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7, “Long-term Debt”) and Revolving Credit Facility (as discussed and defined below), will be sufficient to fund our operating and capital needs for the next 12 months and beyond. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our actual results could vary because of, and our future capital requirements will depend on, many factors, including our growth rate, our ability to retain and grow the number of PACE participants, and the expansion of sales and marketing activities and other costs of operating the business. We may in the future enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, services and technologies. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or if we cannot expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities because we lack sufficient capital, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
The 2021 Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”) of $75.0 million principal amount and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) of $100.0 million maximum borrowing capacity. The borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject (i) any issued amounts under our letters of credit and (ii) applicable covenant compliance restrictions and any other conditions precedent to borrowing. Principal on the Term Loan Facility is paid each calendar quarter in an amount equal to 1.25% of the initial term loan on closing date.
Outstanding principal amounts under the 2021 Credit Agreement accrue interest at a variable interest rate. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was 6.95% and 3.83%, respectively. Under the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Facility fee accrues at 0.25% of the average daily unused amount and is paid quarterly. As of June 30, 2023, we had no borrowings outstanding, $2.8 million of letters of credit issued, and $97.2 million of remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023, we also had $2.3 million principal amount outstanding under our convertible term loan. Monthly principal and interest payments are approximately $0.02 million, and the loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6.68%. The remaining principal balance is due upon maturity, which is August 20, 2030.
For more information about our debt, see Note 7 “Long-term Debt” to our audited consolidated financial statements.
Our material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations primarily relate to long-term debt and lease obligations. Expected timing of those payments are as follows:

We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business and to repay indebtedness and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
Our consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are summarized as follows:
Year Ended June 30,$ Change
20232022
in thousands
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities$20,236 $27,302 $(7,066)
Net cash used in investing activities(69,521)(40,238)(29,283)
Net cash used in financing activities(7,896)(6,318)(1,578)
Net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash$(57,181)$(19,254)$(37,927)
Operating Activities. The change in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was primarily due to the net effect of (i) a net loss of $43.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared to a net loss of $8.0 million during the prior year, as described further above, (ii) an increase of $28.1 million in deferred revenue during fiscal year 2023 due to timing of payments received, (iii) a decrease of $17.7 million in accounts receivable, net of allowance primarily due to timing for the receipt of payments in 2023, and (iv) a net decrease in working capital primarily attributable to payments for operating leases and reported and estimated claims.
Investing Activities. Investing activities were made up of approximately $23.4 million in purchases of property and equipment and $46.2 million for purchases of short-term investments, consisting primarily of managed income funds invested in investment grade short-term fixed and floating rate debt securities aimed at creating income while maintaining low volatility on principal. Our investment in managed income funds regularly pay dividends which are reinvested into the funds.
Financing activities. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to an increase in principal payments on finance leases.
Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act and a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the Exchange Act. For as long as we are an “emerging growth company” or a “smaller reporting company,” we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” or “smaller reporting companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, only being required to present two years of audited financial statements, plus unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for applicable interim periods and the related discussion in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements, exemptions from the requirements of holding non-binding advisory “say-on-pay” votes on executive compensation and shareholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation.
In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under the JOBS Act until we are no longer an emerging growth company. Our election to use the phase-in periods permitted by this election may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the longer phase-in periods permitted under the JOBS Act and who will comply with new or revised financial accounting standards. If we were to subsequently elect instead to comply with public company effective dates, such election would be irrevocable pursuant to the JOBS Act.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, impacting our reported results of operations and financial condition.
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses. We consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements, we believe the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to our financial condition and results of operations and require management to make subjective and complex judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”). Our PACE operating unit provides comprehensive healthcare services to participants on the basis of estimated PMPM amounts we expect to be entitled to receive from the capitated fees per participant that are paid monthly by Medicare, Medicaid, the VA, and private pay sources. We recognize capitation revenues based on the estimated PMPM transaction price to transfer the service for a distinct increment of the series (i.e. month). We recognize revenue in the month in which participants are entitled to receive comprehensive care benefits during the contract term. Medicaid and Medicare capitation revenues are based on PMPM capitation rates under the PACE program, and Medicare rates can fluctuate throughout the contract based on the acuity of each individual participant. In certain contracts, PMPM rates also include “risk adjustments” based on various factors.
For certain capitation payments, the Company is subject to retroactive premium risk adjustments based on various factors. The Company estimates the amount of the adjustment based on participant medical status and historical experience. Such estimates are then recorded monthly on a straight-line basis. We review our assumptions and adjust these estimates accordingly on a quarterly basis. Our consolidated financial statements could be materially impacted if actual risk scores are different from the estimated risk scores. If our accrual estimates for risk scores at June 30, 2023 were to differ by 5%, the impact on revenues would be approximately $0.5 million.
Certain third-party payor contracts include a Medicare Part D payment related to pharmacy claims, which is subject to risk sharing through accepted risk corridor provisions. Under certain agreements the fund risk allocation is established whereby we, as the contracted provider, receive only a portion of the risk and the associated surplus or deficit. We estimate and recognize an adjustment monthly to Part D capitation revenues related to these risk corridor provisions based upon pharmacy claims experience to date, as if the annual risk contract were to terminate at the end of the reporting period.
Goodwill and other intangible assets
Intangible assets consist of customer relationships acquired through business acquisitions. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired through business acquisitions. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually.
We test goodwill for impairment annually on April 1 or more frequently if triggering events occur or other impairment indicators arise which might impair recoverability. These events or circumstances would include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, sale, disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. Impairment of goodwill is evaluated at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment (i.e. before aggregation or combination), or one level below an operating segment (i.e. a component). For purposes of the annual goodwill impairment assessment, the Company has identified three reporting units. There were no indicators of impairment identified and no goodwill impairments recorded during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. In determining the fair value of our reporting units, we estimate a number of factors including anticipated future cash
66

Table of Contents
flows and discount rates. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimates.
Additionally, the customer relationships represent the estimated values of customer relationships of acquired businesses and have definite lives. We amortize these intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their ten-year estimated useful life. ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”), provides guidance for impairment related to definite life assets including, customer relationships, for which we reviewed for impairment in conjunction with long-lived assets. We test for recoverability of the customer relationships whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on the determination of the fair value. Judgment is also required in determining the intangible asset’s useful life.
Reported and estimated claims
Reported and estimated claims expenses are costs for third-party healthcare service providers that provide medical care to our participants for which we are contractually obligated to pay (through our full-risk capitation arrangements). The estimated reserve for unpaid claims liability is included in the liability for reported and estimated claims in the consolidated balance sheets and requires estimates including actual member utilization of healthcare services, unit cost trends, participant acuity, changes in net census, known outbreaks of disease, including COVID-19 or increased incidence of illness such as influenza and other factors. We periodically assess our estimates with an independent actuarial expert to ensure our estimates represent the best, most reasonable estimate given the data available to us at the time the estimates are made.
We have included incurred but not reported claims of approximately $43.0 million and $38.5 million on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our recorded medical claims expense estimate is approximately within +/- 5-10% of actual medical claims expense incurred, or less than 1% of our total operating expense.
The following tables provide information about incurred and paid claims reporting and development as of June 30, 2023 (except as otherwise noted). The expenses recorded table reflects the amount of claims reported in our consolidated statements of operations as of the end of the applicable fiscal year based on our best and most reasonable estimates and actuarial assessment at the time of such determination. The cumulative actual incurred claims table represents the actual amount of claims incurred by the Company with the benefit of the passage of time. The cumulative actual paid claims table represents the actual amount of claims paid by the Company during the period. The variance between the expense recorded and the cumulative actual incurred claims ranges between approximately 1% and 3% of actual total incurred claims over the periods presented, and such variance may vary based on the factors described above in this section.

Item 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of exposure due to potential changes in inflation or interest rates. We do not hold financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest rate risk
As of June 30, 2023, we had total outstanding borrowings of (i) $67.5 million principal amount under the Term Loan Facility (as defined in Note 7 to the audited consolidated financial statements) and (ii) $2.3 million principal amount under the convertible term loan. As of June 30, 2022, we had total outstanding debt of $71.3 million in principal amount under the Term Loan Facility and $2.3 under the Convertible Term Loan. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was 6.95% and 3.83%, respectively.
We are exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of our variable-rate borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement. Generally, the Company may designate specific borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement as either base rate borrowings or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) borrowings. We amended our 2021 Credit Agreement during the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2023 to replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) reference rate with SOFR prior to the discontinuance of LIBOR. As of June 30, 2023, based on our secured net leverage ratio, the margins of our borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7 to the audited consolidated financial statements) were (a) 0.75% for alternate base rate borrowings and (b) 1.75% for Term SOFR borrowings.
Our cash and cash equivalents and interest payments in respect of our debt are subject to market risk due to changes in interest rates. We had cash and cash equivalents of $127.2 million as of June 30, 2023, which are deposited with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in demand deposit accounts. We do not believe that an increase or decrease
68

Table of Contents
in interest rates of 100 basis points would have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We had short-term investments $46.2 and $— as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are primarily invested in managed income funds managed by major financial institutions. The funds mainly invest in investment grade, U.S. denominated short-term fixed and floating rate debt securities. Securities are subject to market risk and sensitive to changes in interest rates. While the instruments held by the funds are generally less sensitive to interest rate changes than instruments with longer maturities due to their short-term nature, the funds may face a heightened level of interest rate risk due to changes in monetary policy. During periods when interest rates are low or negative, the funds yields, and total returns may also be low, or the funds may be unable to maintain positive returns. We do not believe that an increase or decrease in interest rates of 100 basis points would have a material effect on these short-term investments.
Inflation risk
Based on our analysis of the periods presented, we believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our operating results. See more information under Item 7. Management’s Discussion of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Trends and Uncertainties Affecting the Company.” There can be no assurance that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of InnovAge Holding Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of InnovAge Holding Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of a Matter
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases, and related amendments (Topic 842) on July 1, 2022.

Note 1:    Business
InnovAge Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), are headquartered in Denver, Colorado. The Company fulfills a broad range of medical and ancillary services for seniors in need of care and support to safely live independently in their communities, including in-center services such as primary care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, dental services, mental health and psychiatric services, meals, and activities; transportation to the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (“PACE”) center and third-party medical appointments; and care management. The Company manages its business as one reportable segment, PACE.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company served approximately 6,400 PACE participants, making it the largest PACE provider in the United States of America (the U.S.) based upon participants served, and operates 17 PACE centers across Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia. During the third quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company consolidated its Germantown LIFE center with its Allegheny and Henry Avenue LIFE centers in Pennsylvania.
PACE is a fully-capitated managed care program, which serves the frail elderly, and predominantly dual-eligible, population in a community-based service model. InnovAge is obligated to provide, and participants receive, all needed healthcare services through an all-inclusive, coordinated model of care, and the Company is at risk for 100% of healthcare costs incurred with respect to the care of its participants. PACE programs receive capitation payments directly from Medicare Parts C and D, Medicaid, Veterans Administration (“VA”), and private pay sources. Additionally, under the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) share part of the risk for providing prescription medication to the Company’s participants.
The Company’s common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) under the ticker symbol “INNV”.
Note 2:    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and variable interest entities (VIEs) for which it is the primary beneficiary and entities for which it is the controlling general partner. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, the allowance for uncollectible accounts; useful lives of property and equipment and the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets; risk-score adjustments to participant revenues; reported and estimated claims; accruals; the determination of assumptions for stock-based compensation costs; deferred taxes, including the determination of a need for a valuation allowance; legal contingencies, including medical malpractice claims; the determination of fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination; and other fair value measurements. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and financial instruments issued by major financial institutions that have an original maturity of less than three months. Amounts are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are deposited with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in demand deposit accounts. The FDIC insurance coverage is $250,000 on the aggregate of interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts.
75

Table of Contents
Investments
Cost method investments do not have a readily determinable fair value and are carried at cost, less impairment plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer.
The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in entities that it does not control, but in which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. The Company’s investments in these nonconsolidated entities is reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets under the equity method, and the Company’s proportionate net income (loss), if any, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as equity income (loss).
The Company evaluates its investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in value has occurred that is other than temporary. Evidence considered in this evaluation includes, but would not necessarily be limited to, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, recent operating trends and forecasted performance of the investee, market conditions in the geographic area or industry in which the investee operates and the Company’s strategic plans for holding the investment in relation to the period of time expected for an anticipated recovery of its carrying value. If the investment is determined to have a decline in value deemed to be other than temporary it is written down to estimated fair value. There were no write-downs in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 or 2022. See Note 4 “Cost and Equity Method Investments” for more information.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments consist of investments in managed income fund securities managed by major financial institutions. These securities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The estimated fair value of the short-term investments is valued using quoted market prices in active markets and classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Dividend income is reported within other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. Dividends received are reinvested in fund securities. We may sell these securities at any time for use in current operations. As a result, we classify our short-term investments as current assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes cash held for participants who have established a personal-needs account to pay for nonmedical personal expenses, payment of which only occurs upon participant authorization, in the amount of approximately $0.02 million as of both June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company records a related deposit liability for any participant contributions to these personal-needs accounts in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.
Accounts Receivable
The Company provides comprehensive healthcare services to participants on the basis of capitated or fixed fees per participant that are paid monthly by Medicare, Medicaid, the VA, and private pay sources. The Company records accounts receivable at net realizable value, which includes an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses considering eligibility, historical experience, and existing economic conditions. Accounts are written off as bad debts when they are deemed uncollectible based upon individual credit evaluations and specific circumstances underlying the accounts. See additional information in Note 3 “Revenue Recognition”.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of estimated useful lives or lease terms, if the assets are being leased.

Depreciation of $14.8 million and $13.3 million was recorded during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Land is not depreciated, and construction in progress is not depreciated until ready for service. Costs of enhancements or modifications that substantially extend the capacity or useful life of an asset are capitalized and depreciated accordingly. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
The costs of acquiring or developing internal-use software, including directly related payroll costs for internal resources, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed in the period incurred.
Interest is capitalized on construction projects, including internal-use software development projects, while in progress. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company capitalized interest of approximately $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated balance sheets, and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. No impairment charges were recorded in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of customer relationships acquired through business acquisitions. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired through business acquisitions. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually.
The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually on April 1st or more frequently if triggering events occur or other impairment indicators arise which might impair recoverability. These events or circumstances would include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, sale, disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. Impairment of goodwill is evaluated at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment (i.e. before aggregation or combination), or one level below an operating segment (i.e. a component). A component of an operating segment is a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company has three reporting units for evaluating goodwill impairment.
ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), allows entities to first use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. When the reporting units where the Company performs the quantitative goodwill impairment are tested, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit, which the Company primarily determines using an income approach based on the present value of discounted cash flows, to the respective carrying value, which includes goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, the goodwill is not considered impaired. If the carrying value is higher than the fair value, the difference would be recognized as an impairment loss. There were no goodwill impairments recorded during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Customer relationships represent the estimated values of customer relationships of acquired businesses and have definite lives. The Company amortizes these intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their ten-year estimated useful life. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in conjunction with long-lived assets. There were no intangible asset impairments recorded during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Table of Contents
Reported and Estimated Claims
Reported and estimated claims consist of unpaid claims reported as of the balance sheet date and estimates of claims incurred on or before June 30 that have not been reported by that date (IBNR). Such estimates are developed using actuarial methods and are based on many variables, including the utilization of healthcare services, historical payment patterns, cost trends, and other factors. These complex estimation methods and the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and updated, and any adjustments deemed necessary to contemplate new or updated information are reflected in current operations.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs are those costs that have been incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt and are offset against long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets. Such costs are being amortized over the term of the underlying debt using the straight-line method, as the difference between that and the effective interest method are immaterial.
Revenue Recognition
Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performed the following five steps: (i) Identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) Determine the transaction price; (iv) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) Recognize revenue as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Medicaid and Medicare capitation revenues are based on a per member, per month (“PMPM”) capitation rates under the PACE program. For a discussion of our revenue recognition policies, please see Note 3 “Revenue Recognition”.
Professional Liability Claims
The Company records a liability for medical malpractice claims based on estimated probable losses and costs associated with settling these claims and a receivable to reflect the estimated insurance recoveries, if any. See Note 9 “Commitments and Contingencies”.
Advertising Costs
The Company’s purchased services and contracts expenses include media advertising, tactical advertising, and promotion costs. The creative portion of these activities is expensed as incurred. Production costs of advertising and promotional materials are expensed when the advertising is first run, unless such costs support direct-response advertising campaigns. In that case, these costs are capitalized and amortized over the period estimated to benefit from the campaign. Total advertising expenses were $5.6 million and $6.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company and its principal shareholder have long-term equity incentive plans that provide for stock-based compensation, including the granting of stock options, profits interest units and restricted stock units to employees, directors, consultants, or advisers, as determined by each of the respective plans.
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options on the date of grant. This model derives the fair value of the options based on certain assumptions related to expected stock price volatility, expected option life, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. The Company uses the Monte Carlo option model to determine the fair value of the granted profits interests units.
For service-vesting awards, we recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award, on a straight-line basis. If the award was, in substance, multiple awards, we recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the awards. For performance-vesting awards, we recognize stock-based compensation expense when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We analyze if a performance condition is probable for each reporting period through the settlement date for awards subject to performance vesting. Stock-based compensation is included in corporate, general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.
78

Table of Contents
Shares issued pursuant to our equity incentive plans are issued from authorized but unissued shares or from shares, if any, held by the Company as treasury stock. See Note 10 “Stock-based Compensation”.
Income Taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries calculate federal and state income taxes currently payable and for deferred income taxes arising from temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured pursuant to enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment. The members of SH1 and InnovAge Sacramento have elected to be taxed as partnerships, and no provision for income taxes for SH1 or InnovAge Sacramento is included in these consolidated financial statements.
A valuation allowance is provided to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax benefits from uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalty expense associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of provision for income taxes.
Variable Interest Entities (VIE)
A VIE is defined as a legal entity whose equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk or whose equity owners lack certain decision-making and economic rights. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE. InnovAge Senior Housing Thornton, LLC (“SH1”) and Pinewood Lodge, LLC (“PWD”) are considered to be VIEs. The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of PWD but is considered the primary beneficiary of SH1.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that the Company (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the Company's consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which was intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability, measured on a discounted basis, at the commencement date for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. Additionally, this guidance requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users to better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05 Revenue from contracts with customers (Topic 606) and leases (Topic 842) – Effective dates for certain entities which deferred the new lease standard effective date for the Company to interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted.
We adopted the new standard on July 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective transition approach as permitted in ASU 2018-11. In accordance with this approach, the effective date of Topic 842 is also the application date of the new requirements, with prior comparative periods presented in the financial statements with the legacy requirements of ASC Topic 840, Leases. We elected the package of practical expedients which permits us not to reassess under the new lease standard our prior conclusions for lease identification and lease classification on expired or existing contracts and whether
79

Table of Contents
initial direct costs previously capitalized would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard. We also elected to adopt the optional transition method which allows an entity to recognize, if necessary, a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company did not elect the practical expedient to use hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment conclusions on the ROU assets. Comparative periods presented in the financial statements continue to be presented in accordance with GAAP related to leases prior to transitioning to the new lease standard. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in the recognition of operating lease liabilities and ROU assets of $25.1 million and $23.6 million, respectively, while our accounting for capital leases (now referred to as finance leases) remained substantially unchanged. The impact of adopting Topic 842 was not material to our Statements of Operations and Statements of Cash Flows. See Note 6, “Leases.”
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Financial Instruments
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which requires entities to use a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to measure impairment for most financial assets that are not recorded at fair value through net income. Under the CECL model, an entity will estimate lifetime expected credit losses considering available relevant information about historical events, current conditions and supportable forecasts. The CECL model does not apply to available-for-sale debt securities. This guidance also expands the required credit loss disclosures and will be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The ASU is effective for private companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt this guidance for the annual and interim reporting periods beginning July 1, 2023. The Company has not determined the effect of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.
We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 3:    Revenue Recognition
Capitation Revenue and Accounts Receivable
Our capitation revenue relates to contracts with participants in which our performance obligation is to provide healthcare services to the participants. Revenues are recorded during the period our obligations to provide healthcare services are satisfied as noted below within each service type. The Company contracts directly with Medicare and Medicaid on a PMPM basis. We receive 100% of the pooled capitated payment to directly provide or manage the healthcare needs of our participants.
Fees are recorded gross in revenues because the Company is acting as a principal in providing for or overseeing comprehensive care provided to the participants. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates is a registered insurance company because state law in the states in which it operates does not require such registration for risk-bearing providers.
In general, a participant enrolls in the PACE program and is considered a customer of InnovAge. The Company considers all contracts with participants as a single performance obligation to provide comprehensive medical, health, and social services that integrate acute and long-term care. The Company identified that contracts with customers in the PACE program have similar performance obligations and therefore groups them into one portfolio. This performance obligation is satisfied as the Company provides comprehensive care to its participants.
Our revenues are based on the estimated PMPM amounts we expect to be entitled to receive from the capitated fees per participant that are paid monthly by Medicaid, Medicare, the VA, and private pay sources. Medicaid and Medicare capitation revenues are based on PMPM capitation rates under the PACE program. VA is included in “Private Pay and other” and is also capitated. Private pay includes direct payments from participants who do not qualify for the full capitated rate and have to pay all or a portion of the capitated rate.

20232022
Medicaid54 %54 %
Medicare46 %46 %
Private pay and other*%*%
Total100 %100 %
*Less than 1%
The Company determined that the transaction price for these contracts is the amount we expect to be entitled to, which is the most likely amount. For certain capitation payments, the Company is subject to retroactive premium risk adjustments based on various factors. The Company estimates the amount of the adjustment and records it monthly on a straight-line basis. These adjustments are not expected to be material.
The capitation revenues are recognized based on the estimated PMPM transaction price to transfer the service for a distinct increment of the series (i.e. month). We recognize revenue in the month in which participants are entitled to receive comprehensive care benefits during the contract term. As the period between the time of service and time of payment is typically one year or less, the Company elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 and did not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component.
The Company also provides prescription drug benefits in accordance with Medicare Part D. Monthly payments received from CMS and the participants represent the bid amount for providing prescription drug coverage. The portion received from CMS is subject to risk sharing through Medicare Part D risk-sharing corridor provisions. These risk-sharing corridor provisions compare costs targeted in the Company’s bid to actual prescription drug costs. The Company estimates and records a monthly adjustment to Medicare Part D revenues associated with these risk-sharing corridor provisions. Medicare Part D comprised (i) 13% and 12% of capitation revenues for each of the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and (ii) 23% and 23% of external provider costs for the year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The Company provides comprehensive healthcare services to participants on the basis of capitated or fixed fees per participant that are paid monthly by Medicare, Medicaid, the VA, and private pay sources. The concentration of net receivables from participants and third-party payers as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 was as follows:

Medicaid61 %70 %
Medicare29 %22 %
Private pay and other10 %%
Total100 %100 %
The Company records accounts receivable at net realizable value, which includes an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses considering eligibility, historical experience, and existing economic conditions. The balance of the allowance for uncollectible accounts was $4.2 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $3.4 million as of June 30, 2022. Accounts are written off as bad debts when they are deemed uncollectible based upon individual credit evaluations and specific circumstances underlying the accounts.
Other Service Revenue and Accounts Receivable
Other service revenue is comprised of rents earned related to Senior Housing and other fee for service revenue. Accounts receivable related to other service revenue were not significant as of both June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to change, as well as government review. Failure to comply with these laws can expose the entity to significant regulatory action, including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. See Note 9, “Commitments and Contingencies”.

Cost Method Investments
The Company maintains two investments that are accounted for using the cost method. The investments do not have a readily determinable fair value and the Company has elected to record the investments at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no observable price changes or impairments recorded.
JetDoc
In August 2021, the Company acquired a minority interest equal to 806,481 shares of the outstanding common stock of Jetdoc, Inc. (“Jetdoc”), a telehealth and virtual urgent care app dedicated to effectively connecting users with medical professionals, for cash consideration of $2.0 million. The balance of the Company’s investment in Jetdoc is $2.0 million which represents the maximum exposure to loss.
Dispatch Health
On June 14, 2019, the Company invested $1.5 million in DispatchHealth Holdings, Inc., ("DispatchHealth") through the purchase of a portion of its outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. On April 2, 2020, the Company invested an additional $1.1 million through the purchase of a portion of its outstanding Series C Preferred Stock. The balance of the Company’s investment is $2.6 million which represents the maximum exposure to loss. The investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and the Company has elected to record the investment at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. During the period ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no observable price changes or impairments.
Equity Method Investments
Pinewood Lodge
Pinewood Lodge, LLP is a VIE, but the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of PWD. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate PWD. PWD is accounted for using the equity method of accounting and is included in equity method investments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The equity earnings of PWD are insignificant. As of June 30, 2023, the balance of the Company’s investment in PWD was $0.8 million, which represents the maximum exposure to loss.
Consolidated Entities
Noncontrolling Interest
Senior Housing
InnovAge Senior Housing Thornton, LLC is a VIE. The Company is the primary beneficiary of SH1 and consolidates SH1. The Company is the primary beneficiary of SH1 because it has the power to direct the activities that are most significant to SH1 and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from SH1. The most significant activity of SH1 is the operation of the housing facility. The Company has provided a subordinated loan to SH1 and has provided a guarantee for the convertible term loan held by SH1.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
InnovAge Sacramento
InnovAge Sacramento is a joint venture with Adventist Health System/West (“Adventist”) and Eskaton Properties, Incorporated (“Eskaton”). On March 18, 2019, in connection with the formation of InnovAge Sacramento, the Company contributed $9.0 million in cash and land valued at $4.2 million for a 59.9% membership interest in the joint venture. Adventist contributed $5.8 million in cash and Eskaton contributed $3.0 million in cash for membership interests of 26.4% and 13.7%, respectively. In fiscal year 2021, the Company made an additional contribution of $52,000 and obtained an additional 0.1% membership interest in the joint venture, which resulted in the Company obtaining control and consolidating InnovAge Sacramento as of January 1, 2021.
The InnovAge California PACE-Sacramento LLC Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) includes numerous provisions whereby, if certain conditions are met, the joint venture may be required to purchase, at fair market value, certain members’ interests or certain members’ may be required to purchase, at fair market value, the interests of certain other members. The Company’s investment in InnovAge Sacramento includes a put right for the noncontrolling interest holders to require the Company to repurchase the interest of the noncontrolling interest holders at fair value, after the initial term of the management services agreement in 2028. At the time the Company became a publicly traded company these put rights held by the noncontrolling interests of the joint venture were required to be presented as temporary equity. As of June 30, 2023, none of the conditions specified in the JV Agreement had been met. These put rights held by the noncontrolling interests of the joint venture are required to be presented as temporary equity. The redeemable noncontrolling interest of $12.7 million was recorded at carrying value as of June 30, 2023.
Note 5:    Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill amounted to $124.2 million at each of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. The Company did not have any acquisitions resulting in goodwill during the year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Goodwill is not amortized.
Pursuant to ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other,” we review the recoverability of goodwill annually as of April 1 or whenever significant events or changes occur which might impair the recovery of recorded amounts. For purposes of the annual goodwill impairment assessment, the Company has identified three reporting units. There were no goodwill impairments recorded during the year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

There were no intangible asset impairments recorded during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Note 6:    Leases
Leasing Arrangements as Lessee
The Company leases certain property and equipment under various third-party operating and finance lease agreements. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at the lease inception date by evaluating whether the arrangement conveys the right to use an identified asset and whether the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from and has the ability to direct the use of the asset. The leases are noncancelable and expire on various terms from 2023 through 2032. We determine if an arrangement is a lease upon commencement of the contract. If an arrangement is determined to be a long-term lease (greater than 12 months), we recognize an ROU asset and lease liability based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Our lease terms may also include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
We have elected to apply the short-term lease exception for contracts that have a lease term of twelve months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset. Therefore, we do not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability for such contracts. We recognize short-term lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are recognized as expense. Certain leases include escalations based on inflation indexes and fair market value adjustments. Operating lease liabilities are calculated using the prevailing index or rate at lease commencement for such leases.
On March 20, 2023, we consolidated our Germantown center in Pennsylvania with two of our existing centers. Upon consolidation, we terminated our Germantown center lease and recognized lease termination costs of $0.6 million. Lease termination costs are included in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations.

2021 Credit Agreement
On March 8, 2021, concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) that replaced its prior credit agreement. The 2021 Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”) of $75.0 million principal amount and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) of $100.0 million maximum borrowing capacity. As of June 30, 2023, we had no borrowings outstanding under the facility. The remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2023 was $97.2 million, subject to (i) any issued amounts under our letters of credit, which as of June 30, 2023 was $2.8 million, and (ii) applicable covenant compliance restrictions and any other conditions precedent to borrowing. The maturity date of each of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility is March 8, 2026. Loans under the 2021 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Principal on the Term Loan Facility is paid each calendar quarter beginning September 2021 in an amount equal to 1.25% of the initial term loan on closing date. Proceeds of the Term Loan Facility, together with proceeds from the IPO, were used to repay amounts outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement.
Outstanding principal amounts under the 2021 Credit Agreement accrue interest at a variable interest rate. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was 6.95% and 3.83%, respectively. Under the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Facility fee accrues at 0.25% of the average daily unused amount and is paid quarterly. U.S.-dollar LIBOR ceased to be published on June 30, 2023. As such, during fiscal year 2023, the Company prospectively adjusted the effective interest rate for debt and now utilizes SOFR as the effective interest rate.
The 2021 Credit Agreement requires the Company to meet certain operational and reporting requirements, including, but not limited to, a secured net leverage ratio. Additionally, annual capital expenditures and permitted investments, including acquisitions, are limited to amounts specified in the 2021 Credit Agreement. The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides certain restrictions on dividend payments and other equity transactions and requires the Company to make prepayments under specified circumstances. The Company was in compliance with the covenants of the 2021 Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The deferred financing costs related to the Term Loan of $2.0 million are amortized over the term of the underlying debt and unamortized amounts have been offset against long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets. Total amortization of deferred financing costs was $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Convertible Term Loan
On June 29, 2015, SH1 entered into a convertible term loan. Monthly principal and interest payments of $0.02 million commenced on September 1, 2015, and the loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6.68%. The remaining principal balance is due upon maturity, which is August 20, 2030. The loan is secured by a deed of trust to Public Trustee, assignment of leases and rents, security agreements, and SH1’s fixture filing.

Note 8:    Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market

Table of Contents
participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources outside the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions based on market data and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The sensitivity to changes in inputs and their impact on fair value measurements can be significant.
The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are:
Level 1    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date
Level 2    Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3    Unobservable inputs to the valuation techniques that are significant to the fair value measurements of the assets or liabilities

Note 9:    Commitments and Contingencies
Professional Liability
The Company pays fixed premiums for annual professional liability insurance coverage under a claims-made policy. Under such policy, only claims made and reported to the insurer are covered during the policy term, regardless of when the incident giving rise to the claim occurred. The Company records claim liabilities and expected recoveries, if any, at gross amounts. The Company is not currently aware of any unasserted claims or unreported incidents that are expected to exceed medical malpractice insurance coverage limits.
Litigation
From time to time in the normal course of business, the Company is involved in or subject to legal proceedings related to its business. The Company regularly evaluates the status of claims and legal proceedings in which it is involved in order to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred, and to determine if accruals are appropriate. The Company expenses legal costs as such costs are incurred.
Civil Investigative Demands
In July 2021, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Attorney General for the State of Colorado under the Colorado Medicaid False Claims Act. The demand requests information and documents regarding Medicaid billing, patient services and referrals in connection with the Company’s PACE program in Colorado. We continue to fully cooperate with the Attorney General and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.
88

Table of Contents
In February 2022, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) under the Federal False Claims Act on similar subject matter. The demand requests information and documents regarding audits, billing, orders tracking, and quality and timeliness of patient services in connection with the Company’s PACE programs in the states where the Company operates (California, Colorado, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Virginia). In December 2022, the Company received a supplemental civil investigative demand requesting supplemental information on the same matters. The Company continues to fully cooperate with the DOJ and produce the requested information and documentation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this investigation.
Stockholder Lawsuits
On October 14, 2021, and subsequently amended on June 21, 2022, the Company was named as a defendant in a putative class action complaint filed in the District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of individuals who purchased or acquired shares of the Company’s common stock during a specified period (the "Securities Action"). Through the complaint, plaintiffs are asserting claims against the Company, certain of the Company’s officers and directors, Apax Partners, L.P., Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe and the underwriters in the Company’s IPO, alleging violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for making allegedly inaccurate and misleading statements and omissions in connection with the Company’s IPO and subsequent earnings calls and public filings, and seeking compensatory damages, among other things. On September 13, 2022, the Company and the officer and director defendants and Apax Partners, L.P. and Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
On April 20, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company received a books and records demand pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, from a purported stockholder of the Company, Brian Hall, in connection with the stockholder’s investigation of, among other matters, potential breaches of fiduciary duty, mismanagement, self-dealing, corporate waste or other violations of law by the Company’s Board with respect to these matters. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this matter. On May 15, 2023, Mr. Hall filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery asserting derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty against certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors generally relating to alleged failures by the defendants to take remedial actions to address the matters that resulted in sanctions by CMS at certain of the Company’s centers, and alleged misstatements in the Company’s public filings relating to those matters. On June 28, 2023, upon stipulation of the parties, the court entered an order staying the litigation pending the resolution of the motion to dismiss in the Securities Action or upon fifteen days’ notice by any party to the litigation. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this matters.
Other Matters
In the third fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company agreed to settle a wage and hour class action lawsuit in the State of California for a cash payment of $1.2 million. The agreement is subject to court approval.
Because the results of legal proceedings and claims are inherently unpredictable and uncertain, we are currently unable to predict whether the legal proceedings we are involved in will, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or cash flows. The outcomes of legal proceedings and claims could be material to the Company’s operating results for any particular period, depending in part, upon the operating results of such period. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has the potential to have an adverse impact on us due to any related defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

2020 Equity Incentive Plan
Profits Interests
TCO Group Holdings, L.P. (the “LP”), the Company’s largest shareholder and prior to the IPO, the Company’s parent, maintains the TCO Group Holdings, L.P. Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Equity Incentive Plan”) pursuant to which interests in the LP in the form of Class B Units (profits interests) may be granted to employees, directors, consultants, advisers, and other services providers (including partners) of the LP or any of its affiliates, including the Company. A maximum number of 16,162,177 Class B Units are authorized for grant under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. Both performance-based and time-based units were issued under the plan. As of June 30, 2023, a total of 13,009,137 profits interests units have been granted under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan.
These profits interests represent profits interest ownership in the LP tied solely to the accretion, if any, in the value of the LP following the date of issuance of such profits interests. Profits interests participate in any increase of LP value after a hurdle rate is achieved and, for performance-based units, the LP profits interests receive the agreed-upon return on their invested capital and internal rate of return, as applicable. The hurdle rate per unit is $5.49 for both the performance-based and time-based units outstanding as of June 30, 2023.
Each award of profits interests is subject to the following material terms:
(i)The profits interests receive distributions (other than tax distributions) only upon a liquidity event, as defined, that exceeds a threshold equivalent to the fair value of the LP, as determined by the LP’s Board of Directors, at the grant date.
(ii)A portion of the units vest over a period of continuous employment or service (time-based units) while the other portion of the units only vest based on the level of aggregate multiple of invested capital and, with respect to certain grants of profits interests, internal rate of return achieved by Ignite Aggregator LP, one of the limited partners of the LP, upon a change of control of the Company (performance-based units).
The performance-based units are subject to a market condition, which the Company incorporates as part of its determination of the grant date fair value of the units.
The Company uses the Monte Carlo option model to determine the fair value of the granted profits interests units at the time of the grant. As the awards outstanding as of June 30, 2023, were granted prior to our IPO, the stock price was based on prices realized in equity transactions prior to being publicly traded. Expected stock price volatility was based on consideration of indications observed from several publicly traded peer companies. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the unit. The dividend yield percentage is zero because the Company neither currently pays dividends nor intends to do so during the expected term. The expected term of the units represents the time the units are expected to be outstanding. The assumptions under the Monte Carlo model related to the profits interests units, presented on a weighted-average basis, are provided below:

2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan
In March 2021, the Board of Directors approved the InnovAge Holding Corp. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan”), pursuant to which various stock-based awards may be granted to employees, directors, consultants, and advisers. The total number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan is 14,700,000. The Company has issued time-based restricted stock units under this plan to its employees which generally vest or vested (i) on March 4, 2023, the second anniversary of the grant date, (ii) over a three-year period with one-third vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant, or (iii) at other dates. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. Certain awards under this plan vest upon achieving specific share price performance criteria and are determined to have performance-based vesting conditions.

Carryforwards
The Company had state net operating loss carryforwards of $117.9 million and $73.1 million at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which will begin to expire in 2037 if not utilized. Included in this is a city net operating loss which will begin to expire in 2025 if not utilized. Additionally, the Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards of $81.7 million and $14.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively which do not expire.
Valuation Allowance
The Company has provided $8.3 million and $4.1 million at June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, as a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets for federal and state net operating losses and state 163(j) interest expense limitations where there is not sufficient positive evidence to substantiate that these deferred tax assets will be realized at a more-likely-than-not level of assurance.
Other
The Company had no uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The Company files income tax returns as a consolidated group, excluding SH1 and InnovAge Sacramento, in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and is subject to examination by taxing authorities in all of those jurisdictions. From time to time, the Company’s tax returns are reviewed or audited by U.S. federal and various U.S. state-taxing authorities.
The Company believes that adjustments, if any, resulting from these reviews or audits would not be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by U.S. federal and state jurisdictions for the period ended June 30, 2020 and forward. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by California, Colorado and New Mexico state jurisdictions for the period ended June 30, 2019 and forward.
Note 12:    Related Parties
PWD VIE. Pursuant to the PWD Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, Continental Community Housing, the general partner of PWD and our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “General Partner”), helped fund operating deficits and shortfalls of PWD in the form of a loan (the “PWD Loan”). The PWD Loan does not accrue interest. Additionally, the General Partner is paid an administration fee of $35,000 per year. At each of June 30, 2023 and 2022, $0.7 million was recorded in Deposits and other.
Note 13:    Segment Reporting
The Company applies ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” which establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about operations, major customers and the geographies in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. An operating segment is defined as a component that engages in business activities whose operating results are reviewed by the Company’s chief executive officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company has determined that it has five operating segments, three of which are related to the Company’s PACE offering. The PACE-related operating segments are based on three geographic divisions, which are West, Central, and East. Due to the similar economic characteristics, nature of services, and customers, we have aggregated our West, Central, and East operating segments into one reportable segment for PACE. The Company’s remaining two operating segments relate to Homecare and Senior Housing, which are immaterial operating segments, and are shown below as “Other” along with certain corporate unallocated expenses.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company served approximately 6,400 PACE participants, making it the largest PACE provider in the U.S. based upon participants served, and operated 17 PACE centers across Colorado, California, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia. PACE, an alternative to nursing homes, is a managed care, capitated program, which serves the frail elderly in a community-based service model. Participants receive all medical services through a comprehensive, consolidated model of care. Capitation payments are received from Medicare parts C and D; Medicaid; VA, and private pay sources. The Company is at risk for all health and allied care costs incurred with respect to the care of its participants, although it does negotiate discounted rates with its provider network consisting of hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and medical specialists. Additionally, under the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, CMS shares part of the risk for providing prescription medication to the Company’s participants.

Table of Contents
The Company evaluates performance and allocates capital resources to each segment based on an operating model that is designed to maximize the quality of care provided and profitability. The Company does not review assets by segment and therefore assets by segment are not disclosed below. For the periods presented, all of the Company’s long-lived assets were located in the U.S. and all revenue was earned in the U.S.
The Company’s management uses Center-level Contribution Margin as the measure for assessing performance of its segments. Center-level Contribution Margin is defined as total segment revenues less external provider costs and cost of care (excluding depreciation and amortization). The Company allocates corporate level expenses to its segments with a majority of the allocation going to the PACE segment.

Note 14:    Earnings per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding options and other equity awards, using the treasury stock method and the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the applicable period. When a loss from continuing operations exists, all dilutive securities and potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. When net income from continuing operations exists, performance-based units, are omitted from the calculation of diluted EPS until it is determined that the performance criteria has been met at the end of the reporting period. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 1,035,066 performance-based awards excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Item 9A.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Based on our assessment under the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the COSO, management has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023.
This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report on internal controls over financial reporting of the Company's registered public accounting firm. Additionally, our auditors will not be required to formally opine on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 until we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act.
Changes to our Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Control
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, in designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.
