AMSURG CORP. ANNOUNCES PROPOSED PUBLIC OFFERINGS OF

COMMON STOCK AND MANDATORY CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK,

SERIES A-1

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – (June 23, 2014) – AMSURG Corp. (NASDAQ: AMSG) today announced that it is concurrently offering 8,500,000 shares of its common stock and 1,250,000 shares of its Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1, each in a separate registered public offering, subject to market and other conditions. The common stock and mandatory convertible preferred stock offerings are separate public offerings made by separate prospectus supplements. Neither offering is contingent upon the other offering or upon the consummation of the recently announced transaction between AMSURG and Sheridan Healthcare Inc. (the “Sheridan Transaction”).

AMSURG’s Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1, has an offering price of $100 per share and will automatically convert into shares of AMSURG common stock on July 1, 2017. The dividend rate and the conversion terms of the mandatory convertible preferred stock will be determined by negotiations between AMSURG and the underwriters.

AMSURG intends to use the net proceeds from these offerings, together with shares of its common stock to be issued in the Sheridan Transaction, additional debt financing and cash on hand, to finance the consideration to be paid to consummate the Sheridan Transaction, as well as repay borrowings under AMSURG’s existing credit facility, repay the outstanding balance of its senior secured notes due 2020 and pay fees and expenses related to the Sheridan Transaction. If for any reason the Sheridan Transaction does not close or closes for reduced consideration, then AMSURG expects to use any remaining net proceeds from these offerings to repay outstanding indebtedness and for general corporate purposes. AMSURG intends to grant the underwriters in each respective offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,275,000 shares of its common stock and up to an additional 187,500 shares of its Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1.

Morgan and Raymond James are the joint book-running managers for the common stock and Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1, offerings, and BMO Capital Markets, Piper Jaffray & Co. and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. are the co-managers for the common stock and Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-1, offerings.
