Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call presented a strong operational and financial performance in 2025 — double-digit EBITDA growth, margin expansion, robust USPI and hospital segment results, substantial free cash flow, and active balance sheet management including buybacks and a value-creating Conifer transaction. Offsetting these positives are meaningful near-term headwinds and uncertainty from the expiration of enhanced exchange premium tax credits (management estimates a ~$250 million EBITDA hit and assumes ~20% enrollment reduction), normalization of prior-year supplemental payments, and modest hospital admission volume growth guidance for 2026. Management provided a constructive 2026 outlook that, after normalizing items and excluding the exchange headwind, implies ~10% EBITDA growth at the midpoint, but acknowledged material uncertainty that widens the guidance range.
Company Guidance
Tenet guided 2026 consolidated net operating revenues of $21.5 billion to $22.3 billion and consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $4.485 billion to $4.785 billion, with USPI adjusted EBITDA of $2.13 billion to $2.23 billion and Hospital adjusted EBITDA of $2.355 billion to $2.555 billion; they expect same-facility USPI revenue growth of 3%–6% and same-hospital adjusted admissions growth of 1%–2% (adjusted admissions 1%–2%), and assume a 20% reduction in exchange enrollment that they estimate will create a ~$250 million EBITDA headwind (primarily hospitals). Management noted two normalizing items—$148 million of prior-year supplemental Medicaid payments in 2025 and a $40 million one-time favorable Conifer revenue adjustment in 2026—and said that, excluding the tax-credit headwind and normalizing items, 2026 adjusted EBITDA would grow about 10% at the midpoint; they expect Q1 to be ~24% of full-year consolidated EBITDA (USPI Q1 ~22% of its full-year). Tenet projects adjusted cash flow from operations of $3.2 billion–$3.6 billion, capex of $700 million–$800 million, adjusted free cash flow of $2.5 billion–$2.8 billion, and adjusted free cash flow after NCI of $1.6 billion–$1.83 billion (including ~$150 million of Conifer-related tax payments; excluding those taxes midpoint free cash flow less NCI = $1.865 billion), plans ~$250 million of USPI M&A in 2026, and will continue opportunistic share repurchases.
Full-Year Revenue and EBITDA Growth
2025 net operating revenues of $21.3 billion and consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $4.566–4.57 billion, representing ~14% YoY EBITDA growth. Full-year adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 21.4%, up ~200–210 basis points vs. prior year.
Fourth-Quarter Outperformance
Q4 2025 net operating revenues of $5.5 billion and consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $1.183 billion, a 13% YoY increase; Q4 adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.4%.
USPI Strong Performance and Growth
USPI adjusted EBITDA grew to ~$2.026 billion in 2025 (CEO) with Q4 adjusted EBITDA up 9% and margins at 40.5%. Same-facility system-wide revenues up ~7.2% (Q4), net revenue per case +5.5% (Q4), same-facility case volumes +1.6% (Q4). Double-digit same-store volume growth in total joint replacements in ASCs for the year. Invested nearly $350 million in 2025 and added 35 facilities; strong M&A/de novo pipeline and $250 million annual USPI M&A target for 2026.
Hospital Segment Momentum
Hospital adjusted EBITDA rose ~16% in 2025 to ~$2.54 billion. Same-hospital revenue per adjusted admission increased 5.3% (CEO) and revenue per adjusted admission grew 7.5% YoY (Q4). The company is increasing growth capital to support higher-acuity service lines.
Improved Cost Structure and Labor Metrics
Consolidated salary, wages, and benefits were 40.2% of net revenues in Q4, an improvement of ~110 basis points YoY. Contract labor expense is 2.1% of consolidated SW&B, reflecting progress on expense management.
Strong Free Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Generated $2.53 billion of free cash flow for 2025 and $367 million in Q4. Cash on hand of $2.88 billion as of 12/31/25, no borrowings on the line of credit, and no significant debt maturities until late 2027. Leverage ~2.25x EBITDA (2.85x EBITDA less NCI).
Capital Return and Share Repurchase Activity
Repurchased 8.8 million shares for $1.386 billion in 2025 (943k shares/$198 million in Q4). Since 2022, retired ~22% of outstanding shares for ~ $2.5 billion — management intends to continue opportunistic buybacks given current valuation multiples.
2026 Guidance and Normalized Growth Outlook
2026 consolidated adjusted EBITDA guidance of $4.485 billion to $4.785 billion and consolidated net operating revenues guidance of $21.5 billion to $22.3 billion. Management notes that after normalizing for a $148 million prior-year supplemental Medicaid payment (2025) and a $40 million one-time Conifer revenue adjustment (2026), and excluding exchange headwinds, 2026 adjusted EBITDA is expected to grow ~10% at the midpoint.
Conifer Transaction Value Creation
Completed Conifer-related transaction that retired ~$885 million of obligations, repurchased 23.8% of JV equity for $540 million, accelerated ~$1.9 billion cash flow timing over three years, and delivered an estimated after‑tax NPV benefit of roughly $1.0–$1.1 billion.
