Net earnings attributable to Team Health Holdings, Inc. ("Net earnings") were $27.6 million; $43.2 million after adjustments
Diluted net earnings per share of $0.38; Adjusted EPS of $0.60

Projected growth in net revenue for full year 2014 increased to between 16.0% and 17.0%; Adjusted EBITDA margin to be approximately 11.5%

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - November 4, 2014 - Team Health Holdings, Inc. ("TeamHealth" or the "Company") (NYSE: TMH), one of the largest providers of outsourced physician staffing solutions for hospitals in the United States, today announced results for its third quarter of 2014.
"We are pleased with our financial results for the third quarter of 2014. We achieved another quarter of double digit revenue and Adjusted EPS growth and expanded our Adjusted EBITDA margin over the prior year. TeamHealth continues to be an attractive solution for hospitals and physician groups that want to enhance their services in a rapidly changing healthcare environment," said TeamHealth President and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Snow.
"All three of our primary drivers contributed to revenue growth. Our strategy has always been to take a balanced and integrated approach to growth and this continues to be the case going forward. Over the


1


quarter, we believe that an improving economic environment and the support of healthcare reform led to the strengthening of volume, year over year improvements in payor mix, and an increase in estimated collections per visit. We continue to be very active on the acquisition front and, since September, we have grown through the addition of eight high quality organizations.”  
“We believe that we remain well positioned to achieve revenue and earnings growth through the remainder of 2014 and have great momentum going into next year. As a result of our financial performance through the first three quarters of 2014 and our current expectations about operating trends and contributions from recent acquisitions over the remainder of the year, we have increased our estimate for net revenue growth for fiscal year 2014. Our revised net revenue range is now between $2.77 billion and $2.79 billion, reflecting an annual growth rate of between 16.0% and 17.0%, which is an increase from the prior guidance of 13.0% to 14.0%. We typically experience a seasonal reduction in operating margins in the fourth quarter and we also anticipate some transitional costs on our recently completed acquisitions. As a result of these expectations, we project Adjusted EBITDA margin for the full year of 2014 to be approximately 11.5%.  We have continued to see growth in Medicaid parity revenue and now anticipate parity revenue will be in the range of $34.0 million to $36.0 million for 2014. We are engaged in advocacy efforts towards an extension of the Medicaid parity program in its current form into 2015, but at this time, the federal program is scheduled to expire at the end of 2014. There are a limited number of states that have indicated an intent to continue with a Medicaid parity program into 2015, but we do not believe these state initiatives will be a significant benefit to us," concluded Mr. Snow.
2014 Third Quarter Results
Net revenue increased 17.5% to $712.2 million from $606.1 million in the third quarter of 2013. Acquisitions contributed 10.1%, same contract revenue contributed 7.1%, and net sales growth contributed 0.3% of the increase in quarter-over-quarter growth in net revenue. Within the acquisitions category, new hospital contacting opportunities that were initially developed by our sales and marketing process contributed 2.9% of overall net revenue growth between quarters.
Same contract revenue increased $43.2 million, or 7.9%, to $589.7 million from $546.5 million in the third quarter of 2013. An increase of 5.3% in estimated collections on fee for service visits provided a 4.3% increase in same contract revenue growth between quarters while a 5.6% increase in same contract volumes contributed 3.9% to the growth. Contract and other revenue constrained same contract revenue growth between quarters by 0.3%. Acquisitions contributed $61.1 million of revenue growth and net new contract revenue increased by $1.8 million between quarters. The benefit from Medicaid parity revenue recognized in the third quarter of 2014 was $10.4 million, of which $8.5 million is same contract revenue. Because of the deferred recognition of parity revenue in 2013, the third quarter of 2013 reflects a year to date cumulative estimate of Medicaid parity revenue of $12.9 million, of which $12.2 million is same


2


contract. The decline in total parity revenue between periods of $2.6 million constrained consolidated revenue growth by 0.4% while the decline in same contract Medicaid parity revenue of $3.7 million constrained same contract revenue growth by 0.7% between quarters.
The components of net revenue include revenue from contracts that have been in effect for prior periods (same contracts) and from net, new and acquired contracts during the periods, as set forth in the table below:

Reported net earnings for the quarter were $27.6 million, or $0.38 diluted net earnings per share, compared to net earnings of $29.4 million, or $0.41 diluted net earnings per share, in the third quarter of 2013. The financial results for the third quarter of 2014 included $3.1 million of contingent purchase and other acquisition compensation expense ($2.4 million after-tax), non-cash amortization expense of $13.0 million ($8.8 million after tax), and a $7.1 million increase in prior year professional liability loss reserves ($4.4 million million after tax). Excluding these items, net earnings for the third quarter of 2014 would


3


have been $43.2 million and Adjusted EPS would have been $0.60 per share. Financial results for the third quarter of 2013 included a credit of $1.6 million of contingent purchase and other acquisition compensation expense ($0.7 million after-tax), and non-cash amortization expense of $8.7 million ($5.8 million after-tax). Excluding these items, net earnings for the third quarter of 2013 would have been $34.6 million and Adjusted EPS would have been $0.49 per share.
The $7.1 million increase in prior year professional liability loss reserves recorded in the third quarter of 2014 is a result of the settlement of an excess medical malpractice verdict, a decline in the discount factor applied to professional liability reserves due to the lower interest rate environment, and an increase in revised loss estimates for certain older years as reflected in the most recent biannual actuarial report.
As a result of the recent increased pace of acquisition closings, the Company also incurred an elevated level of transaction costs in the third quarter of 2014 in the amount of $3.1 million, which constrained Adjusted Earnings Per Share by approximately $0.04 per share. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliations” and “Adjusted Earnings Per Share” below for the definition of Adjusted EPS and its reconciliation to net earnings and diluted earnings per share attributable to Team Health Holdings, Inc.
The following table set forth a reconciliation of diluted earnings per share to Adjusted EPS (note that some totals may not add due to rounding).

The outstanding debt as of September 30, 2014 includes borrowings under its revolving credit facility in the amount of $227.4 million incurred to fund the Company's recently completed acquisitions. In September, the Company expanded its revolving credit facility by $100.0 million to $350.0 million and as of September 30, 2014 had $122.6 million of available borrowings under its revolving credit facilities (without giving effect to $6.7 million of undrawn letters of credit).
On October 2, 2014, the Company amended and restated its existing credit facility. The First Amendment and Restatement Agreement, among other things, (1) replaced and upsized the existing $275 million Tranche A Term Facility, (2) replaced and upsized the existing $250 million Revolving Credit Facility, (3) extended the maturities of the Tranche A Term Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility from


5


November 1, 2017 to October 2, 2019 and (4) terminated the existing $100 million Interim Revolving Credit Facility. The Company used proceeds from borrowings under the Tranche A Term Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility to repay in full the existing $250 million Tranche B Term Facility , and pay customary fees and expenses associated with the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, with remaining proceeds retained for other future general corporate purposes. After giving effect to the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the Tranche A Term Facility was increased to $600 million and the Revolving Credit Facility was increased to $650 million.
2014 First Nine Months Results

Contract and other revenue constrained same contract revenue growth 0.5% between periods. Acquisitions contributed $156.7 million of growth between periods and net new contract revenue increased by $24.2 million. The benefit from Medicaid parity revenue recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $27.7 million, of which $22.8 million is same contract revenue compared to $12.9 million in 2013, of which $11.8 million was same contract revenue.

Forward Looking Statements
Statements and information contained herein that are not historical facts and that reflect the current view of the Company about future events and financial performance are hereby identified as “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Some of these statements can be identified by terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “continue,” “could,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “predict” and similar expressions. The Company cautions that such “forward looking statements,” including without limitation, those relating to the Company's future business prospects, revenue, working capital, professional liability expense, liquidity, capital needs, interest costs and income, wherever they occur in this or in other statements attributable to the Company, are necessarily estimates reflecting the judgment of the Company's senior management and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the “forward looking statements.” Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include but are not limited to current or future government regulation of the healthcare industry, exposure to professional liability lawsuits and governmental agency investigations, the adequacy of insurance coverage and insurance reserves, as well as those factors detailed under the caption “Risk Factors” and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and the most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company's “forward looking statements” speak only as of the date hereof and the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update “forward looking statements” herein to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events, or changes to future operating results over time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliations
In this release we refer to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Earnings per Share ("Adjusted EPS") which are financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to Team Health Holdings, Inc. before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude the non-cash items and the other adjustments shown in the table under “Adjusted EBITDA” in the release. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share attributable to Team Health Holdings, Inc. excluding non-cash and other adjustments, including the impact of contingent purchase and other acquisition compensation expense and amortization expense relating to purchase accounting for historical acquisitions and the other adjustments shown in the table under “Adjusted Earnings Per Share” in the release. For a reconciliation of each of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to the most directly

comparable GAAP measure, we refer you to the tables under “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted Earnings Per Share,” respectively, contained in the release.

Adjusted EBITDA
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles. In evaluating our performance as measured by Adjusted EBITDA, management recognizes and considers the limitations of this measure. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make, and although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do or may not calculate it at all, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, operating income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, or any other measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share
We present Adjusted earnings per share attributable to Team Health Holdings, Inc. (“Adjusted EPS”) as a supplemental measure of our performance. We present Adjusted EPS because we believe that it assists investors in understanding the impact of acquisition-related costs on our earnings per share and comparing our performance across operating periods on a consistent basis and provides additional insight into our core earnings performance. Adjusted EPS is not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles. In evaluating our performance as measured by Adjusted EPS, management recognizes and considers the limitations of this measure. Adjusted EPS does not reflect certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make, and although contingent purchase and other acquisition compensation expense and amortization expense are non-cash charges in the period reported, such charges reflect historical or future cash payments in conjunction with our acquisition transactions. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EPS differently than we do or may not calculate it at all, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EPS should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, operating income, basic and diluted earnings per share, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, or any other measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
