(2) | SEC rules require certain adjustment be made to the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) totals to determine “Compensation Actually Paid” (“CAP”) as reported in the Pay Versus Performance Table. CAP does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable NEO without restriction, but rather is a value calculated under applicable SEC rules. In general, CAP is calculated as the total compensation from the SCT, adjusted to include, among other things, the fair market value of equity awards as of December 31 of the applicable year or, if earlier, the vesting date (rather than the grant date). No adjustment is made for dividends or other earnings, since dividends are factored into the fair value of the award.
The following tables detail these adjustments:
Fiscal Year |  | Executives |  | SCT (a) |  |  | Grant Date Value of New Awards (b) |  |  | Year End Value of New Awards (i) |  |  | Change in Value of Unvested Prior Awards (ii) |  |  | Change in Value of Vested Prior Awards (iii) |  |  | Change in Value of Awards that Failed to Meet Vesting Conditions (iv) |  |  | Total Equity CAP (c) = (i) + (ii) + (iii) + (iv) |  |  | CAP (d) = (a) - (b) + (c) |

(3) | Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) is determined based upon the value of an initial fixed investment of $100. The TSR peer group consists of the industry line peer group reflected in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K pursuant to Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K. The companies in the peer group are as follows: Arcadia Healthcare Company, Inc., Community Health Systems, Inc., HCA Healthcare, Inc., and Tenet Healthcare Corporation. Each year reflects the cumulative total return assuming $100 invested on December 31, 2019 in our common stock and in the our peer group, including subsequent reinvestment of dividends.
(4) | Adjusted earnings per share, diluted, was selected by the Company as the Company-Selected Measure (“CSM”). It is a non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) financial measure. A reconciliation of adjusted earnings per share, diluted, to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is included in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024.

Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote |
(2) | SEC rules require certain adjustment be made to the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) totals to determine “Compensation Actually Paid” (“CAP”) as reported in the Pay Versus Performance Table. CAP does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable NEO without restriction, but rather is a value calculated under applicable SEC rules. In general, CAP is calculated as the total compensation from the SCT, adjusted to include, among other things, the fair market value of equity awards as of December 31 of the applicable year or, if earlier, the vesting date (rather than the grant date). No adjustment is made for dividends or other earnings, since dividends are factored into the fair value of the award.
