Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | (1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Organization Premier, Inc. ("Premier" or the "Company") is a publicly-held, for-profit Delaware corporation primarily owned by hospitals, health systems and other healthcare organizations (such owners of Premier are referred to herein as "member owners") located in the United States and by public stockholders. The Company, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, is a leading healthcare performance improvement company that unites hospitals, health systems, physicians and other healthcare providers to improve and innovate in the clinical, financial and operational areas of their businesses to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving healthcare industry. The Company's business model and solutions are designed to provide its members access to scale efficiencies, spread the cost of their development, provide actionable intelligence derived from anonymized data in the Company's data warehouse, mitigate the risk of innovation and disseminate best practices that will help the Company's member organizations succeed in their transformation to higher quality and more cost-effective healthcare. The Company, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, delivers its integrated platform of solutions through two business segments: supply chain services and performance services. See Note 17 - Segments for further information related to the Company's reportable business segments. The supply chain services segment includes one of the largest healthcare group purchasing organizations ("GPOs") in the United States and specialty pharmacy and direct sourcing activities. The performance services segment includes one of the largest informatics and advisory services businesses in the United States focused on healthcare providers. The Company's software as a service ("SaaS") informatics products utilize its comprehensive data set to provide actionable intelligence to its members, enabling them to benchmark, analyze and identify areas of improvement across the three main categories of cost management, quality and safety, and population health management. The performance services segment also includes the Company's technology-enabled performance improvement collaboratives, advisory services, government services and insurance management services. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation Basis of Presentation The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Services, LLC ("Premier GP"), holds an approximate 34% general partner interest in Premier Healthcare Alliance, L.P. ("Premier LP"), a variable interest entity ("VIE") in which the limited partners do not have the ability to exercise a substantive removal right with respect to the general partner. The Company, through Premier GP, has the exclusive power and authority to manage the business and affairs of Premier LP and to make all decisions with respect to driving the economic performance of Premier LP, and has both an obligation to absorb losses and a right to receive benefits. Therefore, under the Variable Interest Model, the Company consolidates the operations of Premier LP. The limited partners' approximate 66% ownership of Premier LP is reflected as redeemable limited partners' capital in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the limited partners' proportionate share of income in Premier LP is reflected within net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Premier LP in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and within comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The member owners owned approximately 66% and 68% of the Company's combined Class A and Class B common stock (the "common stock") through their ownership of Class B common stock, and the public investors, which may include member owners that have received shares of Class A common stock in connection with previous exchanges, owned approximately 34% and 32% of the Company's outstanding common stock through their ownership of Class A common stock at September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the member owners exchanged 1,323,654 of their Class B common units and associated Class B common stock for an equal number of Class A common stock as part of their quarterly exchange rights under an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") entered into by the member owners in connection with the completion of a series of transactions (the "Reorganization") concurrent with the consummation of the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO," and collectively with the Reorganization, the "Reorganization and IPO") on October 1, 2013 (see Note 12 - Earnings Per Share). The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily consist of the assets and liabilities of Premier LP, which were $1,696.4 million and $379.3 million, respectively, at September 30, 2016, and $1,694.0 million and $386.8 million, respectively, at June 30, 2016. Assets and liabilities held by Premier, Inc. at September 30, 2016 primarily included $52.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, $422.4 million in deferred tax assets, $284.2 million in tax receivable agreement ("TRA") liabilities and $3.5 million in long term other liabilities. Assets and liabilities held by Premier, Inc. at June 30, 2016 primarily included $38.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $418.8 million in deferred tax assets, $279.7 million in TRA liabilities and $3.1 million in long term other liabilities. In addition, Premier, Inc. had $254.0 million and $267.7 million in payables to Premier LP at September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively that are eliminated upon consolidation. Of the Company's total net income attributable to stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, $73.9 million and $65.0 million, respectively, was attributable to Premier LP. Premier LP's net decrease in cash for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $106.1 million, including cash inflows from operating activities of $12.9 million, cash outflows from investing activities of $96.8 million and cash outflows from financing activities of $22.2 million. Premier LP's net decrease in cash for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $44.7 million, including cash inflows from operating activities of $14.4 million, cash outflows from investing activities of $186.6 million and cash inflows from financing activities of $127.6 million. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring adjustments. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 (the "2016 Annual Report") filed with the SEC on August 25, 2016. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates including estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and equipment, stock-based compensation, payables under tax receivable agreements, values of investments not publicly traded, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, uncertain income taxes, deferred revenue, future cash flows associated with asset impairments, and the allocation of purchase price are evaluated on an ongoing basis. These estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
