1.General Information and Basis of Accounting

General Information

We are a leading provider of data-driven cost management solutions that deliver transparency and promote fairness, quality and affordability to the U.S. healthcare industry. Through our proprietary data and technology platform, we provide out-of-network cost management, payment and revenue integrity, data and decision science, business-to-business healthcare payments and other services to the payors of healthcare, which are primarily health insurers and their administrative-services-only platforms, self-insured employers, federal and state government-sponsored health plans and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.

On February 17, 2025, the Company changed its name from "MultiPlan Corporation" to "Claritev Corporation". The Company's Class A common stock ceased trading under the ticker symbol “MPLN” and began trading under its new ticker symbol, “CTEV”, on the New York Stock Exchange, effective on February 28, 2025.

Throughout the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, "we," "us," "our," "Claritev," and the "Company" and similar terms refer to Claritev and its subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Claritev Corporation have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements are not included herein. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Claritev Corporation and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 have been included.

Reverse Stock Split

On September 20, 2024, the Company effected a one-for-forty (1-for-40) reverse stock split of its Class A common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split").

References to common stock, warrants to purchase common stock, options to purchase common stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units, share data, per share data and conversion rates with respect to convertible notes and related information contained in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from the Company's estimates and assumptions. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill, valuation of stock-based compensation awards and income taxes.

Revenue Recognition

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents revenues disaggregated by services and contract types:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2025			2024
Revenues
Network-Based Services	$	46,890		$	46,155
PSAV	28,882			31,222
PEPM	12,448			13,053
Other	5,560			1,880
Analytics-Based Services	153,430			160,092
PSAV	138,744			147,645
PEPM	10,731			9,400
Other	3,955			3,047
Payment and Revenue Integrity Services	31,010			28,261
PSAV	30,889			28,152
PEPM	121			109
Total Revenues	$	231,330		$	234,508
Percent of PSAV revenues	85.8		%	88.3		%
Percent of PEPM revenues	10.1		%	9.6		%
Percent of other revenues	4.1		%	2.1		%

Due to the nature of our arrangements, certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. For our percentage of savings contracts, portions of revenue that are recognized and collected in a reporting period may be returned or credited in subsequent periods. These credits are the result of payors not utilizing the discounts that were initially calculated, or differences between the Company’s estimates of savings achieved for a customer and the amounts self-reported in the following month by that same customer. Significant judgment is used in constraining estimates of variable consideration and is based upon both customer-specific and aggregated factors that include historical billing and adjustment data, customer contractual terms, and performance guarantees. We update our estimates at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available. There have not been any material changes to estimates of variable consideration for performance obligations satisfied prior to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The timing of payments from customers from time to time generates contract assets or contract liabilities, however these amounts are immaterial in all periods presented.

Derivatives

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its floating-rate debt. In September 2023, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively convert some of its floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis. The Company entered into these agreements to reduce the variability of the cash flows in interest payments associated with the Company’s floating-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest payment cash flows.

The Company elected to apply the hedge accounting rules in accordance with authoritative guidance for the agreements entered into during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity and are subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects "Earnings."

Table of Contents

Stock-Based Compensation

In 2025, the Company began granting a new type of award via the Claritev Corporation 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan"), in the form of cash settled Restricted Stock Units ("cRSUs"). The Company granted 565.6 thousand shares with a fair value at grant date of $8.2 million. The cRSUs vest in two tranches, one-half on the first anniversary of the date of the grant, and the remaining one-half of the awarded units on the second anniversary of the date of the grant.

Each tranche of cRSUs is entitled to receive a cash payment equivalent to the fair market value of common stock on the vesting date, subject to a cap of 4.0x the fair market value of common stock on the grant date.

The fair value assigned to cRSUs is determined using the market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date minus a call option valued using the Black-Sholes formula to derive a closed-form solution for the payoff. Expected volatility in the model was estimated based on the volatility of historical stock prices over a period matching the expected term of the award. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yield constant maturities for a term matching the expected term of the award.

The Company classifies the cRSUs as a liability on its consolidated balance sheets as the vesting results in payment of cash by the Company. The cRSUs are adjusted to fair value at each reporting date.

Stock-based compensation is recognized as compensation expense, net of forfeitures, over the applicable requisite service period of the stock award using the straight-line method for the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). This standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively for all prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this disclosure.

ASU 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,2 which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (PBEs). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. The standard is effective for all PBEs for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this disclosure.

The carrying value of goodwill was $2,403.1 million and $2,403.1 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. No impairment was recorded in the three month ended March 31, 2025

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we concluded that the significant declines in our stock price and market capitalization during the month of March 2024 represented a triggering event and therefore performed an impairment assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of March 31, 2024.

The estimated fair value of our indefinite-lived trade names was less than their carrying value and as a result a loss on impairment of $2.7 million was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The quantitative assessment of our goodwill as of March 31, 2024 indicated that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value, and as a result a loss on impairment of $516.4 million was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The loss on impairment of goodwill and intangible assets was primarily due to the use of a higher discount rate in response to significant declines in the stock price, and lower EBITDA multiples. There were no material changes in the forecasted revenues and expenses utilized in the analysis compared to November 1, 2023.

Impairment losses are included in Loss on impairment of goodwill and intangible assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

3. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to interest risk on its floating rate debt. On September 12, 2023, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $800 million to effectively convert a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed-rate basis. The interest rate swap agreements are effective August 31, 2023 and mature on August 31, 2026. The

Table of Contents

Company entered into these agreements to reduce the volatility of the cash flows in interest payments associated with the Company's floating rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest payment cash flows. The Company's interest rate swaps are highly effective at offsetting the changes in cash outflows and therefore designated as cash flow hedging instruments.

The Company records derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, as described in Note 6 Fair Value Measurements. The gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

The following table represents the activity of cash flow hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the periods presented:

The Company recognized a loss related to the cash flow derivatives of $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and a gain of $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The gains and losses are recognized within interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

On January 30, 2025, the Company, MPH and certain other of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries completed the Refinancing Transaction. As used herein, references to the “Refinancing Transaction” are to the below transactions, which were consummated on January 30, 2025:

•separate offers to exchange (i) 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028 issued by MPH ("5.50% Notes") for a portion of (a) new “first-out” first lien term loans maturing on December 31, 2030 under that certain Super Senior Credit Agreement, dated as of January 30, 2025 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the "New First Lien Credit Agreement"), by and among MPH, as borrower, MPH Acquisition, the parent guarantors from time to time party thereto, the co-obligors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender, and a letter of credit issuer (such loans, the “New First-Out First Lien Term Loans”), (b) new “second-out” 6.50% cash & 5.00% PIK first lien notes due 2030 issued by MPH (the “New Second-Out First Lien A Notes”) and (c) new “second-out” 5.75% first lien notes due 2030 issued by MPH (the “New Second-Out First Lien B Notes” and, together with the New Second-Out First Lien A Notes, the “New Second-Out First Lien Notes”); (ii) 5.750% Senior Notes due 2028 issued by MPH ("5.750% Notes") for a portion of (a) New Second-Out First Lien A Notes, (b) New Second-Out First Lien B Notes and (c) new “third-out” 6.00% cash & 0.75% PIK first lien notes due 2031 issued by MPH (the “New Third-Out First Lien A Notes”); (iii) the 6.00% / 7.00% Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2027 ("Senior Convertible PIK Notes") for a portion of (a) New Second-Out First Lien A Notes, (b) New Second-Out First Lien B Notes and (c) new “third-out” 6.00% cash & 0.75% PIK first lien notes due 2031 issued by Claritev (the “New Third-Out First Lien B Notes” and, together with the New Third-Out First Lien A Notes, the “New Third-Out First Lien Notes”); and (iv) MPH’s existing term loans maturing on September 1, 2028 (such loans, the “Existing Term Loans”) under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of August 24, 2021 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing First Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among MPH, as borrower, MPH Acquisition, the co-obligors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and a letter of credit issuer for a portion of (a) New First-Out First Lien Term Loans and (b) new “second-out” first lien term loans maturing on December 31, 2030 under the New First Lien Credit Agreement (the “New Second-Out First Lien Term Loans”) (collectively, the “Exchange Offers”);

•the related consent solicitations (the “Consent Solicitations”) to (i) holders of the 5.50% Notes, the 5.750% Notes and the Senior Convertible PIK Notes to remove substantially all of the covenants, certain events of default and certain other provisions contained in the indentures governing the 5.50% Notes, the 5.750% Notes and the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, and to release all of the collateral securing the 5.50% Notes and (ii) to holders of Existing Term Loans and Existing Revolving Credit Commitments to eliminate substantially all covenants, certain default provisions, and substantially all representations and warranties in the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement, as well as release certain of the collateral and guarantors thereunder, which had the effect of releasing (i) the same guarantors under the indentures governing the 5.50% Notes and the 5.750% Notes and (ii) the same collateral securing the 5.50% Notes; and

Table of Contents

•the amendment to the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) to (i) explicitly permit the Refinancing Transaction, (ii) eliminate substantially all affirmative covenants, negative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default set forth in the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement and (iii) release the Released Guarantors from their guarantee obligations and release any and all security interests or liens on the assets of such Released Guarantors.

As used herein, references to “Released Guarantors” are to (i) Benefits Science LLC, (ii) BST Acquisition Corp., (iii) American Lifecare Holdings, Inc., (iv) American Lifecare, Inc., (v) Statewide Independent PPO Inc., (vi) Private Healthcare Systems, Inc., (vii) HST, (viii) HST Acquisition Corp., (ix) Launchpoint Ventures, LLC, (x) DHP Acquisition Corp. and (xi) Data & Decision Science LLC.

Interest on the revolving loans (borrowed pursuant to MPH's $350 million senior secured revolving credit facility maturing on December 31, 2029 under the New First Lien Credit Agreement (the "2025 revolving credit facility")) is calculated, at MPH’s option, as (a) Term SOFR (or 0.00%, if higher) plus 3.75% or (b) (x) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (3) Term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% and (4) 1.00% plus (y) 2.75%. We are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of our 2025 revolving credit facility. The fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on our consolidated first out first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the New First Lien Credit Agreement.

As part of the Refinancing Transactions, we have incurred transaction expenses of approximately $76.6 million, of which $63.9 million and $7.8 million have been expensed as incurred for the year ended December 31, 2024 and quarter ended March 31, 2025, respectively, and are included in Transaction Costs - Refinancing Transaction in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Debt issuance costs of $4.9 million associated with the 2025 revolving credit facility are included in other assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. Transaction costs were paid in conjunction with the transaction and the revolver was drawn, in the amount of $130.0 million, to fund the Refinancing Transaction. The 2025 revolving credit facility had $80 million and $0 outstanding at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Exchange Offers were treated as debt modifications, and all unamortized debt issue costs and discounts associated with the pre-existing notes were ratably applied to the new notes issued, and will be amortized over the new term.

The Refinancing Transactions will increase the Company’s taxable income for the year. Additional income tax due, estimated between $55 million and $75 million, will be paid in the ordinary course of business throughout the remainder of 2025.

The financial covenant under the 2025 revolving credit facility is such that, if, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of MPH (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2025), the aggregate amount of loans under the 2025 revolving credit facility, letters of credit issued under the 2025 revolving credit facility (to the extent not cash collateralized or backstopped or, in the aggregate, in excess of $15.0 million) and swingline loans are outstanding and/or issued in an aggregate amount greater than 40.0% of the total commitments in respect of the 2025 revolving credit facility at such time, the 2025 revolving credit facility will require MPH to maintain a consolidated first out first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio not to exceed 2.50 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2025, we had $264.8 million of loan availability under the revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of the debt covenants. See our discussion of Debt Covenants and Events of Default provided in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

5. Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares

Warrants were issued to Churchill Sponsor III, LLC ("Sponsor") (the "Private Placement Warrants") in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering by Churchill Capital Corporation III ("Churchill") which closed on February 19, 2020, which include the warrants to purchase Churchill's Class A common stock ("Working Capital Warrants") issued pursuant to the terms of an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor, and which are on terms identical to the terms of the Private Placement Warrants. On July 12, 2020, Churchill entered into the Merger Agreement (the "Merger Agreement") by and among Music Merger Sub I, Inc., Music Merger Sub II, LLC, Holdings, and Polaris Parent Corp. In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Churchill and Michael Klein, Jay Taragin, Jeremy Paul Abson, Glenn R. August, Mark Klein, Malcolm S. McDermid, and Karen G. Mills entered into a Sponsor Agreement (as amended, the "Sponsor Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, 310,102 of the founder shares ("Unvested Founder Shares") and 120,000 Private Placement Warrants were unvested as of October 8, 2020 and will re-vest at such time as, during

Table of Contents

the period starting on October 8, 2021 and ending on October 8, 2025, the closing price of our Class A common stock exceeds $500.00 per share for any forty (40) trading days in a sixty (60) consecutive day period. Such founder shares and Private Placement Warrants that do not re-vest on or before October 8, 2025 will be forfeited and cancelled.

The 120,000 Private Placement Warrants that unvested are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor and other permitted transferees, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until they re-vest.

The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares were initially recorded at fair value on the date of consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the related agreements (the "Transactions") and are subsequently adjusted to fair value at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares and unvested Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Monte Carlo model and the fair value of the remaining Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Black Scholes model, together referenced as the "option pricing" model. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the founder shares until the earlier of the re-vesting or forfeiture of these instruments. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the Private Placement Warrants until the warrant is equity classified.

There are 476,717 Private Placement Warrants and 310,102 Unvested Founder Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Private Placement Warrants and the Unvested Founder Shares had no value.

6. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are based on the premise that fair value represents an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the following three-tier fair value hierarchy has been used in determining the inputs used in measuring fair value:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the reporting date.

•Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the entity to develop its own assumptions.

Financial instruments

Certain financial instruments which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists primarily of accounts receivable.

Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025 included money market funds of 10.0 million, which were valued based on Level 1 measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 did not include money market funds.

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's carrying amount and fair value of long-term debt consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2025				December 31, 2024

Total Long-term Debt	$	4,555,150	$	3,408,531	$	4,544,252	$	3,346,746

We estimate the fair value of long-term debt using Level 2 inputs as they are not registered securities nor listed on any securities exchange but may be traded by qualified institutional buyers.

Recurring fair value measurements

The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of these instruments was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market which would represent a level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses an option pricing simulation to estimate the fair value of these instruments.

The Company records derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, which represents the estimated amounts it would receive or pay upon termination of the derivative prior to the scheduled expiration date. The fair value is derived from model-driven information based on observable Level 2 inputs, such as SOFR forward rates.

Non-recurring fair value measurements

We also measure certain non-financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, primarily goodwill and long-lived tangible and intangible assets, in connection with periodic evaluations for potential impairment. We estimate the fair value of these assets using primarily unobservable inputs and, as such, these are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. There were no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and impairment charges of $519.1 million for goodwill and long-lived intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Our non-marketable equity securities using the measurement alternative are adjusted to fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments are made when observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer occur, or due to impairment. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the value based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date. At March 31, 2025, the carrying amount of these alternative investments, recorded under Other assets, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $15.0 million. There were no write-ups due to observable price changes or write-downs due to impairment in the current period.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company has certain irrevocable letters of credit used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for four of our offices in lieu of security deposits in the amount of $3.2 million outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company also has an irrevocable letter of credit to satisfy the obligations of a captive insurance subsidiary in the amount of $2.0 million outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and $6.1 million as of December 31, 2024.

Claims and Litigation

We are a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters which have arisen in the ordinary course of business as well as regulatory investigations, all which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe they will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

On July 11, 2024, we settled litigation filed in 2014 in which a dialysis company alleged that an entity we acquired in 2011 was liable for certain payments owed to the dialysis provider. As a result of this settlement, we received $9.8 million of recoveries from insurers in the three months ended September 30, 2024, and on October 7, 2024, we completed the settlement payment.

For example, and relating to litigation on the basis of alleged violation of antitrust laws, we have been named in numerous federal lawsuits, including putative class action lawsuits, asserting that, among other things, the Company is conspiring with commercial health insurance payors to suppress out-of-network reimbursements in violation of applicable antitrust law. These lawsuits were initially filed in various venues, including the Southern District of New York, the Northern District of Illinois, and the Northern District of California, naming the Company and, in certain cases, certain payors, as defendants. The lawsuits have now been centralized in the Northern District of Illinois (the "Court") pursuant to a transfer order issued by the federal Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation and assigned to the Honorable Matthew F. Kennelly. Consolidated complaints were filed on November 18, 2024 and the defendants filed joint motions to dismiss the consolidated complaints on January 16, 2025. Oppositions to the joint motions to dismiss were filed on March 3, 2025, and defendants filed their replies on April 2, 2025. Oral argument on the motions to dismiss was held on May 2, 2025 and the Court took the motions under advisement. We believe these lawsuits are without merit and intend to vigorously defend the Company.

We accrue for costs associated with certain contingencies, including, but not limited to, settlement of legal proceedings, regulatory compliance matters and self-insurance exposures when such costs are probable and reasonably estimable. Such accruals are included in other accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we accrue for legal fees incurred in defense of asserted litigation and regulatory matters as such legal fees are incurred. To the extent it is probable under our existing insurance coverage that we are able to recover losses and legal fees related to contingencies, we record such recoveries concurrently with the accrual of the related loss or legal fees. Significant management judgment is required to estimate the amounts of such contingent liabilities and the related insurance recoveries. In our determination of the probability and ability to estimate contingent liabilities and related insurance recoveries we consider the following: litigation exposure based on currently available information, consultations with external legal counsel, adequacy and applicability of existing insurance coverage and other pertinent facts and circumstances regarding the contingency. Liabilities established to provide for contingencies are adjusted as further information develops, circumstances change, or contingencies are resolved; and such changes are recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss during the period of the change and appropriately reflected in other accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

8. Segment Information

ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making decisions. The Company's singular focus is being a leading value-added provider of data analytics and technology-enabled end-to-end cost management, payment and revenue integrity solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry.

The CODM assesses performance for our reporting segment and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net income (loss). The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The CODM uses net income (loss) to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into our segment or into other parts of the entity, such as for acquisitions or debt and equity repurchases. Additionally, we have identified personnel costs, stock based compensation ("SBC"), and access and bill review fees as significant expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included in net income (loss). Personnel costs are defined as salaries and corresponding benefits (excluding SBC), severance costs, indirect costs such as recruitment fees, contract labor, and are presented net of capitalized costs. Stock based compensation includes expense under the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan and ESPP. Access and bill review fees include fees for accessing non-owned third-party provider networks, expenses associated with vendor fees for database access and systems technology used to reprice claims, and outsourced services. Third-party network expenses are fees paid to non-owned provider networks used to supplement our owned network assets to provide more network claim savings to our clients.

In addition, all of the Company's revenues and long-lived assets are attributable to operations in the United States for all periods presented.

9. Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The following table sets for the weighted average number of shares outstanding and the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share, retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Sock Split for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except number of shares and per share data)	2025		2024
Numerator for earnings per share calculation
Net loss	$	(71,319)	$	(539,689)
Denominator for earnings per share calculation
Weighted average number of shares outstanding – basic	16,273,439		16,158,356

Weighted average number of shares outstanding – diluted	16,273,439		16,158,356
(Loss) Income per share – basic and diluted:
Net loss per share – basic	$	(4.38)	$	(33.40)
Net loss per share – diluted	$	(4.38)	$	(33.40)

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, we have excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share the instruments whose effect would have been antidilutive, including (i) 1,462,500 warrants outstanding, (ii) 808 shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, and (iii) 310,102 Unvested Founder Shares. Additionally, we have excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share stock-based compensation awards whose effect would have been anti-dilutive of 1,882,534. Therefore, the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share is the same.

10. Related Party Transactions

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss include related party expenses of $19 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $36 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024. These expenses are associated with a software license from Abacus Insights, Inc., as well as customer service software and captive management services from companies controlled by Hellman & Friedman LLC.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets include prepaid expenses of $35 thousand and $37 thousand from related parties as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Company Overview

Claritev is a leading provider of data-driven cost management solutions that deliver transparency and promote fairness, quality and affordability to the U.S. healthcare industry. Through our proprietary data and technology platform, we provide out-of-network cost management, payment and revenue integrity, data and decision science, business-to-business healthcare payments and other services to the payors of healthcare, which are primarily health insurers and their administrative-services-only platforms, self-insured employers, federal and state government-sponsored health plans and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.

Although the end beneficiary of our services are employers and other plan sponsors and their health plan members, our direct customers are typically payors, including payors providing administrative services only, third-party administrators ("TPAs"), who go to market with our services to those end customers. We offer these payors a single interface to our services, which are used in combination or individually to reduce the medical cost burden on their health plan customers, by lowering the per-unit cost of medical services incurred, managing the utilization of medical services, and increasing the likelihood that the services are reimbursed without error and accepted by the provider. We are a technology-enabled service provider and transaction processor and do not deliver health-care services, provide or manage healthcare services, provide care or care management, or adjudicate or pay claims.

The Company, primarily through its operating subsidiary, Claritev, Inc., offers its solutions nationally through a range of service lines, which include:

•Analytics-Based Services reduce medical cost through data-driven algorithms and insights that detect claims over-charges and either negotiate or recommend fair reimbursement for out-of-network medical costs using a variety of data sources and pricing algorithms. Our Analytics-Based Services claim pricing services are generally priced based on a percentage of savings achieved. Also included in this category are services that enable lower cost health plans that feature reference-based pricing either in conjunction with or in place of a provider network. These services are generally priced at a bundled per-employee-per-moth ("PEPM") rate;

•Network-Based Services reduce medical cost by providing access to contracted discounts with healthcare providers with whom payors do not have a contractual relationship, through our expansive network of over 1.4 million healthcare providers, which forms one of the largest independent preferred provider organizations in the United States. Our Network-Based Services are priced based on either a percentage of savings achieved or at a per employee/member per month fee. This service category also includes customized network development and management services for payors seeking to expand their network footprint using outsourced services. These services are generally priced on a per provider contract or other project-based price;

•Payment and Revenue Integrity Services reduce medical cost through data, technology, and clinical expertise deployed to identify and remove improper and unnecessary charges before or after claims are paid, or to identify and help restore premium dollars underpaid by CMS for government health plans caused by discrepancies with enrollment-related data. Payment and Revenue Integrity Services are generally priced based on a percentage of savings achieved; and

•Data and Decision Science Services reduce medical costs through a next generation suite of solutions that apply modern methods of data science to produce descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics that enable customers to optimize decision-making about plan design and network configurations and to support decision-making to improve clinical outcomes, plan performance, and competitive positioning. We formed this new service category in the second quarter of 2023 and accelerated its development through the acquisition of BST. Data and Decisions Science Services are generally priced based on a subscription, licensing, or per-member-per month basis.

Additionally, in 2023 the Company entered into a partnership agreement with ECHO Health, Inc., which through a joint marketing and services agreement adds payment processing of healthcare provider claims as well as payments made to other service providers.

We believe our solutions provide a strong value proposition to payors, their health plan customers and healthcare consumers, as well as to providers. Overall, our service offerings aim to reduce healthcare costs in a manner that is orderly, efficient, and fair to all parties. In addition, because in most instances the fee for our services is linked to the savings we identify, our revenue model is aligned with the interests of our customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2024, our comprehensive services identified approximately $6.2 billion, $5.7 billion, and $24.7 billion in potential medical cost savings, respectively.

Reverse Stock Split

On September 20, 2024, the Company effected a one-for-forty (1-for-40) reverse stock split of its Class A common stock.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Medical Cost Savings

Our business and revenues are driven by the ability to lower medical costs through claim savings for our customers. The volume of medical charges associated with those claims is a primary driver of our ability to generate claim savings.

The following table presents the medical charges processed and the potential savings identified across our products and revenue streams, including PEPM and percentage of savings ("PSAV"), for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended March 31,						Change
(in millions)	2025			2024			%
Commercial Health Plans
Medical charges processed	$	20,877		$	18,305		14.1%
Potential medical cost savings	$	5,835		$	5,400		8.1%
Potential savings as a % of charges	27.9		%	29.5		%
Payment & Revenue Integrity, Property & Casualty, and Other
Medical charges processed	$	22,003		$	23,215		(5.2)%
Potential medical cost savings	$	393		$	336		17.0%
Potential savings as a % of charges	1.8		%	1.4		%
Total
Medical charges processed	$	42,880		$	41,520		3.3%
Potential medical cost savings	$	6,228		$	5,736		8.6%
Potential savings as a % of charges	14.5		%	13.8		%

Medical charges processed represent the aggregate dollar amount of claims processed by our cost management and payment and revenue integrity solutions in the period presented. The dollar amount of the claim for the purposes of this calculation is the dollar amount of the claim prior to any reductions that may be made as a result of the claim being processed by our solutions.

Potential medical cost savings represent the aggregate amount of potential savings in dollars identified by our cost management and payment and revenue integrity solutions in the period presented. Since certain of our fees are based on the amount of savings achieved by our customers, and our customers are the final adjudicator of the claims and may choose not to reduce claims or reduce claims by only a portion of the potential savings identified, potential medical cost savings may not directly correlate with the amount of fees earned in connection with the processing of such claims.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenues

We generate revenues from several sources including: (i) Network-Based Services that process claims at a discount compared to billed fee-for-service rates and by using an extensive network, (ii) Analytics-Based Services that use our leading and proprietary information technology platform to offer customers solutions to reduce medical costs, and (iii) Payment and Revenue Integrity Services that use data, technology, and clinical expertise to identify improper, unnecessary and excessive charges. Payors typically compensate us through either a PSAV achieved or a PEPM rate. Approximately 88% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was based on a PSAV achieved rate.

Costs of Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets)

Costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets) consist of all costs specifically associated with claims processing activities for clients, sales and marketing, and the development and maintenance of our networks, analytics-based services, and payment and revenue integrity services. Two of the largest components in costs of services are personnel expenses and access and bill review fees. Access and bill review fees include fees for accessing non-owned third-party provider networks, expenses associated with vendor fees for database access and systems technology used to reprice claims, and outsourced services. Third-party network expenses are fees paid to non-owned provider networks used to supplement our owned network assets to provide more network claim savings to our clients.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include corporate management and governance functions composed of general management, legal, treasury, tax, real estate, financial reporting, auditing, benefits and human resource administration, communications, public relations, billing and information management. In addition, general and administrative expenses include taxes, insurance, advertising, transaction costs, and other general expenses.

Depreciation Expense

Depreciation expense consists of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment related to our investments in leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, computer hardware and software, and internally generated capitalized software development costs. We provide for depreciation and amortization on property and equipment using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets includes amortization of the value of our customer relationships, provider network, technology, and trademarks which were identified in valuing the intangible assets in connection with the June 6, 2016 acquisition by Hellman & Friedman Capital Partners VIII, L.P. and its affiliates, as well as the subsequent acquisitions of BST, HST and DHP by the Company.

Loss on Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

A loss on impairment can be recorded in connection with the quantitative impairment testing of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles and is performed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, and their fair value is less than their carrying value.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of accrued interest and related interest payments on our outstanding long-term debt and amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts.

Interest Income

Interest income consists primarily of bank interest.

Transaction Costs - Refinancing Transaction

Costs incurred with third parties directly related to an exchange or modification that is not to be accounted for in the same manner as a debt extinguishment, are expensed as incurred.

Loss (Gain) on Extinguishment of Debt

The Company recognizes a loss or (gain) on extinguishment of debt for the difference between the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt immediately before the refinancing and the fair value of the new debt instruments, and fees associated with the issuance of the new debt under the refinancing.

Gain (Loss) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares

The Company re-measures, at each reporting period, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares. The changes in fair value are primarily due to the change in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock and the passage of time over that period.

Income Tax Benefit

Income tax benefit consists of federal, state, and local income taxes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") to evaluate our financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are financial measures that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in

assessing our financial condition and results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our financial operating results of our core business.

These measurements of financial performance have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Some of these limitations are:

•such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•such measures do not reflect the significant interest expense, or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

•such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for any future replacement of depreciated assets;

•such measures do not reflect the impact of stock-based compensation upon our results of operations;

•such measures do not reflect our income tax (benefit) expense or the cash requirements to pay our income taxes;

•such measures do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and

•other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from how we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in the presentation.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are widely used measures of corporate profitability eliminating the effects of financing and capital expenditures from the operating results. We define EBITDA as net loss adjusted for interest expense, interest income, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and non-income taxes. Non-income taxes includes personal property taxes, real estate taxes, sales and use taxes and franchise taxes which are included in cost of services and general and administrative expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core business, including other expenses, net, gain on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, transaction related expenses, (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, (gain) loss on investments, loss on impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and stock-based compensation. See our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding these adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is used in our agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness for debt covenant compliance purposes. Our Adjusted EBITDA calculation is consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA used in our debt instruments.

Adjusted EPS is used in reporting to our Board and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is the profitability measure we use to evaluate earnings performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. Adjusted EPS is defined as net loss adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, transaction related expenses, (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, (gain) loss on investments, other expense, gain on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, loss on impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and tax effect of adjustments to arrive at Adjusted net income divided by our basic weighted average number of shares outstanding.

____________________

Material differences between Claritev Corporation and MPH for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 include differences in interest expense, income taxes, gain on extinguishment of debt, and stock-based compensation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, interest expense for Claritev Corporation was higher than MPH by $18.8 million and $20.4 million, respectively, due to interest expense incurred by Claritev Corporation on the Senior Convertible PIK Notes and the New Third-Out First Lien B Notes.

The change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, gain on extinguishment of debt, and stock-based compensation (excluding the employee stock purchase plan) are recorded in the parent company Claritev Corporation and not in the MPH operating company and therefore represent differences between Claritev Corporation and MPH.

In the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, EBITDA expenses for Claritev Corporation were lower than MPH by $2.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, primarily due to insurance premiums paid to our captive insurance company, net of related captive insurance company costs, which are eliminated in the consolidated financial reporting of Claritev Corporation.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations

As a result of a number of factors, our historical results of operations may not be comparable to our results of operations in future periods and may not be directly comparable from period to period. Set forth below is a brief discussion of the key factors impacting the comparability of our results of operations.

Refinancing Transaction

As part of the Refinancing Transactions, we have incurred transaction expenses of approximately $76.6 million, of which $7.8 million have been expensed as incurred for three months ended March 31, 2025, and are included in Transaction Costs - Refinancing Transaction in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

Debt Repurchase and Cancellation

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased and cancelled $21.1 million of the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $5.9 million, representing the difference between the purchase price including associated fees and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt.

Revenues

Revenues decreased by $3.2 million, or 1.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease in revenues was due to the decrease in Analytics-Based Services revenues of $6.7 million, partially offset by the increase in Payment and Revenue Integrity Services Revenues of $2.7 million during this time period.

Network-Based Services revenues increased by $0.7 million, or 1.6%, in the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in Workers Comp product line of $1.7 million partially offset by a decrease in Primary PEPM product line.

Analytics-Based Services revenues decreased by $6.7 million, or 4.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease in revenue was primarily due to a decrease in Analytics-Based Services PSAV of $8.9 million primarily related to customer and program attrition.

Payment and Revenue Integrity Services revenues increased by $2.7 million, or 9.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to increases in our Clinical Review and Payment Accuracy product lines of $4.5 million offset by decreases in our Negotiations and Revenue Integrity product lines of $1.9 million. The increase in Payment and Revenue Integrity Services was primarily within our PSAV revenues.

General and Administrative Expenses


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
(in thousands)	2025		2024		$		%
Personnel expenses excluding stock-based compensation	$	16,768	$	14,938	$	1,830	12.3	%

Total general and administrative expenses	$	50,635	$	34,857	$	15,778	45.3	%

The increase in general and administrative expenses of $15.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to $7.7 million of transformation costs and $3.7 million of losses on disposal of assets.

Depreciation Expense

The increases in depreciation expenses of $3.6 million, or 16.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, were due to purchases of property and equipment, including internally generated capitalized software, partially offset by assets that were written-off or became fully depreciated in the period.

Loss on Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, in connection with quantitative impairment testing performed on our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, we recorded a loss on impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles of $516.4 million and $2.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, no such loss was recorded.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense of $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due the PIK interest recognized on the New Notes of $10.4 million.

Our annualized weighted average cash interest rate increased by 0.13% across our total debt in the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 6.96% and 6.82%, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, our total debt had a weighted average cash interest rate of 6.68%.

Interest Income

The decreases in interest income of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 were primarily due to less interest earned on interest bearing bank accounts resulting from lower average invested cash and cash equivalents balances.

Loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, in connection with the Refinancing Transactions, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million for unamortized deferred costs relating to the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased and cancelled $21.1 million of the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, resulting in the recognition of a gain on debt extinguishment of $5.9 million, representing the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt.

Benefit for income taxes

Net loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $89.9 million generated a benefit for income taxes of $18.5 million. Net loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $561.7 million generated a benefit for income taxes of $22.0 million.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to stock compensation expense, limitations on executive compensation, and state taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to stock compensation expense, limitations on executive compensation, non-deductible goodwill impairment, and state taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $33.9 million, which includes restricted cash of $10.8 million. As of March 31, 2025, we had $264.8 million of loan availability under the revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2025, we had five letters of credit totaling $5.2 million of utilization against the revolving credit facility. Four letters of credit are used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for four of our offices in lieu of security deposits in the amount of $3.2 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company also has an irrevocable letter of credit to satisfy the obligations of a subsidiary in the amount of $2.0 million as of March 31, 2025 and $6.1 million as of December 31, 2024.

Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds combined with our borrowing capacity under our 2025 revolving credit facility. We believe these sources will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our working capital, and capital expenditure and other cash requirements for the next twelve months. We may from time to time at our sole discretion purchase, redeem or retire our long-term debt, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions or otherwise. We plan to finance our capital expenditures with cash from operations. Furthermore, our future liquidity and future ability to fund capital expenditures, working capital, and debt requirements are also dependent upon our future financial performance, which is subject to many economic, commercial, financial and other factors that are beyond our control, including the ability of financial institutions to meet their lending obligations to us. If those factors significantly change, our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or future borrowings may not be available to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that to the extent we require additional liquidity as a result of these factors or in order to execute our strategy, it would be financed either by borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, by other indebtedness, additional equity financings, or a combination of the foregoing. We may be unable to obtain any such additional financing on reasonable terms or at all.

Prior to January 30, 2025, our senior secured credit facilities consisted of (a) initial aggregate principal of $1,325.0 million ($1,281.9 million at December 31, 2024) term loan facility maturing on September 1, 2028 and (b) MPH's $450.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility maturing on August 24, 2026, and after January 30, 2025, consist of MPH's senior secured credit facilities which consist of (a) $325.0 million of New First-Out First Lien Term Loans, (b) $1,143.9 million of New Second-Out First Lien Term Loans, and (c) the 2025 revolving credit facility (the "senior secured credit facilities").

Cash Flow Summary

The following table is derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2025		2024
Net cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	(30,056)	$	49,716
Investing activities	$	(38,866)	$	(30,544)
Financing activities	$	73,150	$	(31,488)

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $79.8 million, primarily due to lower earnings once adjusted for non-cash items, and unfavorable changes in working capital. Changes in our working capital requirements reflect primarily the payment of the transaction costs related to the Refinancing Transaction.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased $8.3 million, or 27.2%, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to investments in technologies to support our transformation initiatives.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities increased $104.6 million as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due the net borrowing of $80.0 million on our 2025 revolving credit facility to fund the transaction costs related to the Refinancing Transaction versus the repurchase of PIK Notes of $14.9 million and treasury stock of $10.4 million in the prior period.

Term Loans and Revolvers

In connection with the Refinancing Transaction, on January 30, 2025, MPH issued senior secured credit facilities composed of $325.0 million of New First-Out First Lien Term Loans and $1,143.9 million of New Second-Out First Lien Term Loans and entered into a $350.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility.

Interest on the New First-Out First Lien Term Loans is calculated, at MPH’s option, as (a) Term SOFR (or 0.50%, if higher) plus 3.75% or (b)(x) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (3) Term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, and (4) 1.50% plus (y) 2.75%. Interest on the New Second-Out First Lien Term Loans is calculated, at MPH's option, as (a) Term SOFR (or 0.50%, if higher) plus the applicable SOFR adjustment plus 4.60% or (b)(x) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (3) Term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus the applicable SOFR adjustment plus 1.00%, and (4) 1.50% plus (y) 3.60%. Interest on the 2025 Revolving Credit Loans is calculated, at MPH’s option, as (a) Term SOFR (or 0.00%, if higher) plus 3.75% or (b)(x) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (3) Term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% and (4) 1.00% plus (y) 2.75%.

The New First Lien Term Loans mature on December 31, 2030 and the 2025 revolving credit facility matures on December 31, 2029.

We are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of our 2025 revolving credit facility. The fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on our consolidated first out first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the New First Lien Credit Agreement.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its floating rate debt. On September 12, 2023, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $800 million to effectively convert a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed-rate basis of 4.59% as a weighted-average across the three swaps. The interest rate swap agreements are effective August 31, 2023 and mature on August 31, 2026. The principal objective of these contracts is to reduce the volatility of the cash flows in interest payments associated with the Company's floating rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest payment cash flows. The Company's interest rate swaps are highly effective at offsetting the changes in cash outflows and therefore designated as cash flow hedging instruments. The Refinancing Transaction did not have an impact on these interest swap agreements.

On October 8, 2020, the Company issued $1,300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Convertible PIK Notes. The Senior Convertible PIK Notes were issued with a 2.5% discount with a maturity date of October 15, 2027.

Debt Covenants and Events of Default

We are subject to certain affirmative and negative debt covenants under the debt agreements governing our indebtedness that limit our and/or certain of our subsidiaries' ability to engage in specific types of transactions. These covenants limit our and/or certain of our subsidiaries' ability to, among other things:

•incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified or preferred stock;

•pay certain dividends or make certain distributions on capital stock or repurchase or redeem capital stock;

•make certain loans, investments or other restricted payments;

•transfer or sell certain assets;

•incur certain liens;

•place restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to us;

•guarantee indebtedness or incur other contingent obligations;

•prepay junior debt and make certain investments;

•consummate any merger, consolidation or amalgamation, or liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution), or dispose of all or substantially all of its business units, assets or other properties; and

•engage in transactions with our affiliates.

Term Loan B, 5.50% Notes, 5.750% Notes, New First-Out First Lien Term Loans, New Second-Out First Lien Term Loans, and the New Notes have speculative grade ratings. The Senior Convertible PIK Notes are unrated.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 we were in compliance with all of the debt covenants.

The debt agreements governing our senior secured indebtedness contain customary events of default, subject to grace periods and exceptions, which include, among others, payment defaults, cross-defaults to certain material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, material judgments, failure of a guarantee on the liens on material collateral to remain in effect, in the case of the debt agreements governing the senior secured credit facilities, any change of control. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under such debt agreements, the lenders and holders of such debt will be permitted to accelerate the loans and terminate the commitments, as applicable, thereunder and exercise other specified remedies available to the lenders and holders thereunder.

As a result of the Refinancing Transaction, (i) the Company and MPH entered into the amendment to the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement Amendment") and supplemental indentures with respect to the 5.50% Notes, the 5.750% Notes and the Senior Convertible PIK Notes, which had the effect of eliminating substantially all of the covenants and events of defaults in the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement and in the indentures governing such notes.

See the footnotes to the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table provided above under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for material differences between the financial information of Claritev and MPH.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In preparing our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates, which we believe are reasonable and prudent based on the available facts and circumstances. These judgments, assumptions and estimates affect certain of our revenues and expenses and their related balance sheet accounts and disclosure of our contingent liabilities. We base our assumptions and estimates primarily on historical experience and consider known and projected trends. On an ongoing basis, we re-evaluate our selection of assumptions and the method of calculating our estimates. Actual results, however, may materially differ from our calculated estimates, and this difference would be reported in our current operations.

For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 in our 2024 Annual Report. For a detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2024 Annual Report.

Customer Concentration

Two clients individually accounted for 28% and 16% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024. The loss of the business of one or more of our larger customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. For further discussion on our customer concentration, please refer to Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2024 Annual Report.

Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

For further information on the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting see Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Reference is made to our 2024 Annual Report and in particular Item 7A.“Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” therein. As of March 31, 2025, there were no material changes in the market risks described in our 2024 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers have concluded that, as of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Management recognizes that a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, have been detected.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe they will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2025 to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We operate in a litigious environment which may adversely affect our financial results.

We may, and in the past have, become involved in legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including litigation regarding employment matters, breach of contract, violations of laws and regulations, and other commercial matters. Further, we are the subject of government investigations from time to time. Due to the inherent uncertainty in the litigation process, the resolution of any particular legal proceeding could result in changes to our products and business practices and could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Healthcare providers have become more resistant to the use of cost management techniques and are engaging in litigation to avoid application of cost management practices. Litigation brought by healthcare providers as well as client members has challenged insurers' claims adjudication and reimbursement decisions, and healthcare cost management providers, such as Claritev, are sometimes made party to such suits or involved in related litigation. Further, Claritev may be, and has been in the past, made party to such lawsuits or litigation may be brought independently against Claritev under various legal bases, including, breach of contract, misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, antitrust, or violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, and may be made under other legal bases or theories in the future. Such litigation is increasingly brought involving multiple parties, multiple claims or on a class-wide basis. We and our subsidiaries have and may, in the future, become involved in such litigation.

Because we operate in an industry that is highly-regulated and where such regulations are continuously evolving, we cannot assure you that new federal and state laws and regulations or other changes that adversely impact healthcare providers or insurers will not lead to increased litigation risk to us and other cost management providers and insurers. Exacerbating this risk is that many healthcare providers and insurers have greater financial resources than us and other healthcare cost management providers have and may be more willing to engage in, and devote resources to, litigation as a result. In addition, certain of the agreements we enter into include indemnification provisions that may subject us to costs and damages in the event of a claim against an indemnified party.

We maintain insurance coverage for certain types of claims; however, such insurance coverage may not apply or may be insufficient to cover all losses or all types of claims that may arise. Further, even if we were to prevail in any particular dispute, litigation could be costly and time-consuming and divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations.

Lawsuits of the types set out above could materially adversely affect our result, especially if they proliferate. In addition, such lawsuits may affect our customers' use of our products and services, especially our cost management products and services.

Item 5. Other Information

(a) During the three months ended March 31, 2025, none of our officers or directors adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement."
