FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pediatrix Medical Group Reports First Quarter Results

Raises Full Year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA Outlook Range

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., May 6, 2025 - Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. (NYSE: MD), a leading provider of physician services, today reported earnings of $0.24 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025. On a non-GAAP basis, Pediatrix reported Adjusted EPS of $0.33.

For the 2025 first quarter, Pediatrix reported the following results:

•
Net revenue of $458 million;
•
Net income of $21 million; and
•
Adjusted EBITDA of $49 million.

“Our strong first quarter results reflect same-unit top-line outperformance versus our expectations, continued steady cost management and the successful results of the portfolio restructuring we completed last year. As a result of our strong first quarter performance, we are raising our full year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA outlook from a range of $215 million to $235 million to a range of $220 million to $240 million, demonstrating our commitment to delivering value for our stakeholders,” said Mark S. Ordan, Chief Executive Officer of Pediatrix Medical Group. “While we are raising our guidance, we remain mindful of the uncertainty that we face in the healthcare industry and the broad economic turbulence that is challenging virtually all companies.”

Operating Results– Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

Pediatrix’s net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $458.4 million, compared to $495.1 million for the prior-year period. This decrease reflects the impact of non-same unit activity, primarily practice dispositions, partially offset by growth in same-unit net revenue of 6.2 percent.

Same-unit revenue from net reimbursement-related factors increased by 4.6 percent for the 2025 first quarter as compared to the prior-year period. This increase primarily reflects improved payor mix and modest improvements in hospital contract administrative fees. The percentage of services reimbursed by commercial and other non-government payors increased by approximately 120 basis points compared to the prior year period.

Same-unit revenue attributable to patient volume increased by 1.6 percent for the 2025 first quarter as compared to the prior-year period. Shown below are year-over-year percentage changes in certain same-unit volume statistics for the three months ended March 31, 2025. (Note: figures in the below table reflect contributions only to net patient service revenue and exclude other contributions to total same-unit revenue, including contract and administrative fees.)

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Hospital-based patient services |  | 1.7%
Office-based patient services |  | 2.6%
Neonatology services (within hospital-based services): |  |
Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) days |  | 2.0%

For the 2025 first quarter, practice salaries and benefits expense was $337.0 million, compared to $369.1 million for the prior-year period. This comparison primarily reflects the impact of practice disposition activity, partially offset by increases in same-unit clinical compensation costs, including incentive compensation based on practice results.

For the 2025 first quarter, general and administrative expenses were $58.6 million, as compared to $60.2 million for the prior-year period. This decrease primarily reflects net staffing reductions, partially offset by increases in certain professional services and information technology expenses.

For 2025 first quarter, transformational and restructuring related expenses were $6.6 million, compared to $8.5 million for the prior-year period. The expenses in both periods were primarily related to position eliminations and revenue cycle management transition activities.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and transformational and restructuring related expenses, was $49.2 million for the 2025 first quarter, compared to $37.2 million for the prior-year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the net favorable impacts from same-unit results and practice disposition activity completed during 2024.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $5.3 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $10.3 million for same period in 2024. This comparison was primarily related to a

decrease in depreciation expense related to non-same unit activity, primarily practice dispositions.

Interest expense was $9.2 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $10.6 million for the first quarter of 2024.

Investment and other income was $4.7 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $2.0 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily related to interest income earned on cash balances.

Pediatrix generated net income of $20.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the 2025 first quarter, based on a weighted average 85.4 million shares outstanding. This compares with net income of $4.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the 2024 first quarter, based on a weighted average 83.3 million shares outstanding.

For the first quarter of 2025, Pediatrix reported Adjusted EPS of $0.33, compared to $0.20 for the first quarter of 2024. For these periods, Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted income per common and common equivalent share excluding non-cash amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, transformational and restructuring related expenses, and discrete tax events.

Financial Position and Cash Flow – Continuing Operations

Pediatrix had cash and cash equivalents of $99.0 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $229.9 million at December 31, 2024, and net accounts receivable at March 31, 2025 were $242.5 million.

For the first quarter of 2025, Pediatrix used cash of $116.1 million to fund continuing operations, compared to a use of $122.6 million during the first quarter of 2024. Pediatrix typically uses cash during the first quarter of each year as it pays incentive compensation, primarily to its affiliated physicians, and makes employee benefit plan matching contributions that were accrued during the prior year. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2025, the Company used $3.3 million to fund capital expenditures.

At March 31, 2025, Pediatrix had total debt outstanding of $611 million, consisting of its $400 million in 5.375% Senior Notes due 2030 and $211 million in borrowings under its Term A Loan. At March 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its $450 million revolving line of credit.

Updated 2025 Outlook

As a result of the strong first quarter 2025 performance, Pediatrix is raising its full year 2025 outlook for Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, and now anticipates Adjusted EBITDA will be in a range of $220 million to $240 million.
