Slide 8

Revised fiscal 2023 guidance Based on financial results for six months ended December 31, 2022; current visibility into macro environment; and expectations for remainder of this fiscal year, Premier is revising its fiscal 2023 guidance ranges as follows: Lowering Supply Chain Services net revenue guidance to range of $930 million to $980 million, reflecting lower direct sourcing products revenue as result of excess market supply and member inventory levels and slower ramp in new domestic manufacturing capabilities than initially planned due to manufacturing factory delays; lower net administrative fees revenue as overall healthcare utilization has not yet returned to level company originally anticipated in original guidance. Raising Performance Services net revenue guidance to range of $450 million to $470 million, primarily reflecting second quarter performance and contributions from acquisition of TRPN assets in October 2022 partially offset by lower than anticipated revenue contributions from Remitra. Total net revenue remains unchanged from original guidance. Total adjusted EBITDA guidance* remains unchanged from original guidance. Lowering adjusted earnings per share guidance* to a range of $2.53 to $2.65, reflecting the following items: higher depreciation expense than company originally contemplated in initial guidance; and an increase in interest expense due to rising interest rates and increased utilization of company's revolving credit facility to fund acquisition of TRPN assets. These items are expected to be partially offset by tax benefit as company currently expects effective tax rate to be at low end of 26%-to-27% guidance range. * Premier does not provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP forward-looking guidance as certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated.

Appendix


Slide 12

Use of Forward-looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures The company does not believe it can meaningfully reconcile guidance for non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share to net income attributable to stockholders or earnings per share attributable to stockholders because the company cannot provide guidance for the more significant reconciling items between net income attributable to stockholders and adjusted EBITDA and between earnings per share attributable to stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share without unreasonable effort. This is due to the fact that future period non-GAAP guidance includes adjustments for items not indicative of our core operations, which may include, without limitation, items included in the supplemental financial information for reconciliation of reported GAAP results to non-GAAP results. Such items may, from time to time, include merger- and acquisition-related expenses for professional fees; mark to market adjustments for put options and contingent liabilities; gains and losses on stock-based performance shares; adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims); items such as strategic initiative and financial restructuring-related expenses; and certain other items the company believes to be non-indicative of its ongoing operations. Such adjustments may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions, judgements, as well as nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains/losses or other items that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. The exact amount of these adjustments are not currently determinable but may be significant.
