Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
During 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic impactedAdaptHealth's business, as well as its patients, communities, and employees.AdaptHealth's priorities during the COVID-19 pandemic remain protecting the health and safety of its employees (including patient-facing employees providing respiratory and other services), maximizing the availability of its services and products to support patient health needs, and the operational and financial stability of its business. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the National Emergency Declaration, datedMarch 13, 2020 ,AdaptHealth activated certain business interruption protocols, including acquisition and distribution of personal protective equipment (PPE) to its patient-facing employees, accelerated capital expenditures of certain products and relocation of significant portions of its workforce to "work-from-home" status. Federal, state, and local authorities have taken several actions designed to assist healthcare providers in providing care to COVID-19 and other patients and to mitigate the adverse economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Legislative actions taken by the federal government include the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), which was signed into law onMarch 27, 2020 . Through the CARES Act, the federal government has authorized payments to be distributed to healthcare providers through thePublic Health and Social Services Emergency Fund ("Provider Relief Fund " or "PRF"). Additionally, the CARES Act revised the Medicare accelerated and advance payment program in an attempt to disburse payments to healthcare providers more quickly to mitigate the financial impact on healthcare providers.AdaptHealth increased its cash liquidity by, among other things, seeking recoupable advance payments of approximately$46 million made available by CMS under the CARES Act legislation, which was received inApril 2020 . The recoupment of such amount by CMS will begin inApril 2021 and will be applied to services provided and revenue recognized during the period in which the recoupment occurs. The total of the recoupable advance payments has been deferred as ofDecember 31, 2020 . In addition, inApril 2020 ,AdaptHealth received distributions of the CARES Act PRF of approximately$17 million which are targeted to offset lost revenue and expenditures incurred in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. The PRF payments are subject to certain restrictions and are subject to recoupment if not used for designated purposes. As a condition to receiving distributions, providers must agree to certain terms and conditions, including, among other things, that the funds are being used for lost revenues and unreimbursed COVID-19 related expenses as defined by theU.S. Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"). All recipients of PRF payments are required to comply with 47 Table of Contents the reporting requirements described in the terms and conditions and as determined by HHS.AdaptHealth recognizes grant payments as income when there is reasonable assurance that it has complied with the conditions associated with the grant. During the year endedDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth recognized grant income of$14.3 million related to the PRF payments received.AdaptHealth has deferred$2.7 million of the PRF payments as ofDecember 31, 2020 . As previously noted, HHS guidance related to PRF grant funds is still evolving and subject to change. During September andOctober 2020 , HHS issued updated reporting requirements significantly changing the previous guidance regarding utilization of the funds granted from the PRF under the CARES Act, and inJanuary 2021 HHS issued further guidance updating the reporting requirements relating to PRF grant funds. As a result of the updated guidance from HHS,AdaptHealth could be required to reverse the recognition of the grant income recorded and return a portion of the funds recognized, which could be material toAdaptHealth .AdaptHealth is continuing to monitor the reporting requirements as they evolve. HHS has indicated that the CARES Act PRF funds are subject to ongoing reporting and changes to the terms and conditions. To the extent that reporting requirements and terms and conditions are modified in the future, it may affectAdaptHealth's ability to comply and may require the return of funds. Furthermore, HHS has indicated that it will be closely monitoring and, along with theOffice of Inspector General (United States ) (OIG), auditing providers to ensure that recipients comply with the terms and conditions of relief programs and to prevent fraud and abuse. All providers will be subject to civil and criminal penalties for any deliberate omissions, misrepresentations or falsifications of any information given to HHS. While the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the National Emergency Declaration and the various state and local government imposed stay-at-home restrictions did not have a material impact onAdaptHealth's consolidated operating results for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth began to experience declines in net revenues in certain services associated with elective medical procedures (such as commencement of new CPAP services and medical equipment and orthopedic supply related to facility discharges) in the three months endedJune 30, 2020 , and such declines may continue during the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to these declines, as well as certain over staffing related to recent acquisitions,AdaptHealth conducted a workforce assessment and implemented a reduction in force inApril 2020 resulting in the elimination of approximately 6% of its workforce. In connection with the workforce reductions,AdaptHealth incurred a one-time charge for severance and related expenses of approximately$1.6 million . Offsetting these declines in net revenue,AdaptHealth is experiencing an increase in net revenue related to increased demand for certain respiratory products (such as oxygen), increased sales in its resupply businesses (primarily as a result of the increased ability to contact patients at home as a result of state and local government imposed stay-at-home orders) and the one-time sale of certain respiratory equipment (primarily ventilators, bi-level PAP devices and oxygen concentrators) to hospitals and local health agencies. Additionally, suspension of Medicare sequestration throughMarch 31, 2021 (resulting in a 2% increase in Medicare payments to all providers), and regulatory guidance from CMS expanding telemedicine and reducing documentation requirements during the emergency period, have resulted in increased net revenues for certain products and services. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic onAdaptHealth's business, results of operations, and financial condition is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments and numerous evolving factors that it may not be able to accurately predict, and could be material toAdaptHealth's consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
Key Components of Operating Results
Net Revenue. Net revenue is recorded for services thatAdaptHealth provides to patients for home healthcare equipment, medical supplies to the home and related services.AdaptHealth's primary service lines are (i) sleep therapy equipment, supplies and related services (including CPAP and bi PAP services) to individuals suffering from OSA, (ii) medical devices and supplies to patients for the treatment of diabetes (including continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps), (iii) home medical equipment to patients discharged from acute care and other facilities, (iv) oxygen and related chronic therapy services in the home, and (v) other HME medical devices and supplies on behalf of chronically ill patients with wound care, urological, incontinence, ostomy and nutritional supply needs.

Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, included in our consolidated financial statements for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 included in this report for additional information regardingAdaptHealth's acquisitions.
Debt and Recapitalization
InJuly 2020 ,AdaptHealth refinanced its debt borrowings and entered into a new credit agreement with a new bank group (the "2020 Credit Agreement"). The 2020 Credit Agreement consisted of a$250 million term loan (the "2020 Term Loan") and$200 million in commitments for revolving credit loans with a$15 million letter of credit sublimit, both with maturities inJuly 2025 . The amount borrowed under the 2020 Term Loan bore interest quarterly at variable rates based upon the sum of (a) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate (subject to a floor) equal to the LIBOR (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement) for the applicable interest period, plus (b) an applicable margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.75% per annum based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement). InJanuary 2021 , the Company refinanced its borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement in connection with the acquisition ofAeroCare Holdings, Inc. Refer to the section Liquidity and Capital Resources below for additional discussion regarding such refinancing. InJuly 2020 ,AdaptHealth LLC ("AdaptHealth LLC "), a wholly owned subsidiary ofAdaptHealth , issued$350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (the "6.125% Senior Notes"). 49
Table of Contents
The 6.125% Senior Notes will mature onAugust 1, 2028 . Interest on the 6.125% Senior Notes is payable onFebruary 1st andAugust 1st of each year, beginning onFebruary 1, 2021 . InMarch 2019 ,AdaptHealth restructured its then existing debt borrowings which consisted of$425 million in credit facilities, including a$300 million initial term loan,$50 million delayed draw term loan, and$75 million revolving credit facility. Outstanding amounts borrowed under such credit facility were repaid in full in connection with theJuly 2020 refinancing transaction discussed above. InMarch 2019 ,AdaptHealth entered into a promissory note agreement with an investor with a principal amount of$100 million (the "Promissory Note"). The transactions consummated with respect to theMarch 2019 debt restructuring discussed above and the Promissory Note are hereinafter referred to as the "2019 Recapitalization." InNovember 2019 , the Company repaid$50 million under the initial term loan. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the Promissory Note was replaced with a new amended and restated promissory note with a principal amount of$100.0 million , and the investor converted certain of its members' equity interests to a$43.5 million promissory note. The new$100.0 million promissory note, together with the$43.5 million promissory note, are collectively referred to herein as the "New Promissory Note". The outstanding principal balance under the New Promissory Note is due onNovember 8, 2029 , and bears interest at the following rates (a) for the period starting on the closing date and ending on the seventh anniversary, a rate of 12% per annum, and (b) for the period starting on the day after the seventh anniversary of the closing date and ending on the maturity date, a rate equal to the greater of (i) 15% per annum or (ii) the twelve-month LIBOR plus 12% per annum.
Seasonality
AdaptHealth's business experiences some seasonality. Its patients are generally responsible for a greater percentage of the cost of their treatment or therapy during the early months of the year due to co-insurance, co-payments and deductibles, and therefore may defer treatment and services of certain therapies until meeting their annual deductibles. In addition, changes to employer insurance coverage often go into effect at the beginning of each calendar year which may impact eligibility requirements and delay or defer treatment. These factors may lead to lower net revenue and cash flow in the early part of the year versus the latter half of the year. Additionally, the increased incidence of respiratory infections during the winter season may result in initiation of additional respiratory services such as oxygen therapy for certain patient populations.AdaptHealth's quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future depending on these and other factors.
Key Business Metrics
AdaptHealth focuses on net revenue, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex as it reviews its performance. Total net revenue is comprised of net sales revenue and net revenue from fixed monthly equipment reimbursements less implicit price concessions. Net sales revenue consists of revenue recognized at a point in time for the sale of supplies and disposables. Net revenue from fixed monthly equipment reimbursements consists of revenue recognized over the service period for equipment (including, but not limited to, CPAP machines, hospital beds, wheelchairs and other equipment). 50 Table of Contents Three Months Ended December 31, March 31, 2020 June 30, 2020 September 30, 2020 December 31, 2020 Net Revenue Revenue Revenue Revenue Revenue Revenue (dollars in thousands) Dollars Percentage Dollars Percentage Dollars Percentage Dollars Percentage

Net revenue for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 was$1.06 billion compared to$529.6 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 , an increase of$526.7 million or 99.5%. The increase in net revenue was driven primarily by (i) acquisitions completed during 2020, which contributed net revenue of$450.2 million during the year, (ii) organic growth resulting from stronger CPAP resupply sales and demographic growth in core markets, and (iii) net revenue of$36.5 million from referral partners and healthcare facilities in support of their urgent needs for ventilation and oxygen equipment for COVID-19 patients. These increases were partially offset by reduced demand for certain products that are related to elective medical services which is attributable to the coronavirus pandemic, such as CPAP new starts, orthotics, and certain other HME products, and this trend is expected to remain while the coronavirus crisis continues. However, the Company's CPAP resupply and other supplies business remains healthy, as most patients for that business are in their homes and can be easily contacted to refresh their supplies. Additionally, the coronavirus pandemic has led to an increased demand for respiratory equipment including ventilators and oxygen concentrators. For the year endedDecember 31, 2020 , net sales revenue (recognized at a point in time) comprised 72% of total net revenue, compared to 60% of total net revenue for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 . The increase in the proportion of net sales revenue compared to total net revenue was driven primarily by the PCS, Solara,ActivStyle and Pinnacle acquisitions, which are direct to consumer supplies businesses, as well as theSleepMed and Choice acquisitions, which are primarily CPAP resupply businesses. For the year endedDecember 31, 2020 , net revenue from fixed monthly equipment reimbursements comprised 28% of total net revenue, compared to 40% of total net revenue for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 . 52 Table of Contents

Costs of products and supplies increased by$285.5 million primarily as a result of acquisition growth, increased CPAP resupply sales, and expenses associated with the coronavirus pandemic, including increased personal protective equipment purchases. Salaries, labor and benefits increased by$104.7 million primarily related to acquisition growth and increased headcount, primarily from the PCS, Solara,ActivStyle and Pinnacle acquisitions. The increase in rent and occupancy and other operating expenses is related to acquisition growth, primarily from the aforementioned acquisitions. Cost of net revenue was 85.0% of net revenue for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 compared to 83.1% for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 . The cost of products and supplies was 41.8% of net revenue in 2020 compared to 29.5% in 2019, while patient equipment depreciation was 6.7% of net revenue in 2020 compared to 11.2% in 2019. These changes are the result of a change in product mix as sales revenue was higher in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily from the PCS, Solara,ActivStyle and Pinnacle acquisitions. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 were$89.3 million compared to$56.5 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 , an increase of$32.8 million or 58.2%. This increase is primarily due to (1) higher labor costs associated with increased headcount, (2) higher professional fees including legal, accounting and consulting, (3) increased transaction costs related to acquisition growth, (4) higher information technology related expenses, and (5) incremental costs associated with operating as a public company. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue was 8.5% in 2020, compared to 10.7% in 2019. General and administrative expenses in 2020 included$10.8 million in equity-based compensation expense,$25.4 million in transaction costs,$1.1 million in severance expense and$0.6 million in other non-recurring expenses. General and administrative expenses in 2019 included$11.1 million in equity-based compensation expense,$15.6 million in transaction costs,$1.4 million in severance expense and$0.5 million in other non-recurring expenses. Excluding the impact of these charges, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue was 4.9% and 5.3% in 2020 and 2019, respectively. Depreciation and amortization, excluding patient equipment depreciation. Depreciation and amortization, excluding patient equipment depreciation, for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 was$11.4 million compared to$3.1 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 , an increase of$8.3 million . The increase was
primarily related to 53 Table of Contents amortization expense of$6.0 million related to identifiable intangible assets recognized during 2020. There was no amortization expense of intangible assets recognized during 2019. Interest Expense. Interest expense for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 was$41.4 million compared to$39.3 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 . Interest expense related to long-term debt during 2020 increased by$13.5 million compared to 2019 as a result of higher long-term debt borrowings outstanding during that year. Interest expense during 2019 included non-cash interest expense of$11.4 million representing the change in fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreements; such amount would only be paid out if the interest rate swap agreements were terminated. OnAugust 22, 2019 ,AdaptHealth designated its swaps as effective cash flow hedges. Accordingly, subsequent toAugust 22, 2019 , changes in the fair value of its interest rate swaps are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) in equity rather than interest expense. As such, there was no non-cash interest expense related to changes in the fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreements during 2020. Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. Loss on extinguishment of debt for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 was$5.3 million which was a result of the write-off of deferred financing costs related toAdaptHealth refinancing its credit facility inJuly 2020 . Loss on extinguishment of debt for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 was$2.1 million which was a result of the write-off of deferred financing costs related to the 2019 Recapitalization. Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration Common Shares Liability. In connection with the Business Combination, certain former owners ofAdaptHealth Holdings are entitled to contingent consideration common shares. These shares are liability-classified, and the change in fair value of the contingent consideration common shares liability represents a non-cash charge for the change in the estimated fair value of such liability during the period. Other Income, net. Other income, net for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 consisted of$4.2 million of net reductions in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities related to acquisitions, a gain of$0.6 million related to the sale of an investment, offset by a$1.5 million expense related to the PCS Transition Services Agreement and$0.1 million of equity income related to equity method investments. Other income, net for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 consisted of$0.2 million of net reductions in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities related to acquisitions and$0.1 million of equity income related to an equity method investment. Income Tax (Benefit) Expense. Income tax benefit for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 was$12.0 million compared to income tax expense of$0.7 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 . The change in income tax benefit/expense was primarily related to decreased pre-tax income associated with the tax paying entities.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex
AdaptHealth uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex, which are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles inthe United States , orU.S. GAAP, to analyze its financial results and believes that they are useful to investors, as a supplement toU.S. GAAP measures. In addition,AdaptHealth's ability to incur additional indebtedness and make investments under its existing credit agreement is governed, in part, by its ability to satisfy tests based on a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex.
AdaptHealth defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (as defined above), plus loss on extinguishment of debt, equitybased compensation expense, transaction costs, severance, change in fair value of contingent consideration common shares liability, and non-recurring items of expense (income).AdaptHealth defines Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex as Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) less patient equipment acquired during the period without regard to whether the equipment was purchased or financed through lease transactions. 54 Table of Contents
AdaptHealth believes Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex is useful to investors in evaluatingAdaptHealth's financial performance.AdaptHealth's business requires significant investment in equipment purchases to maintain its patient equipment inventory. Some equipment title transfers to patients' ownership after a prescribed number of fixed monthly payments. Equipment that does not transfer wears out or oftentimes is not recovered after a patient's use of the equipment terminates.AdaptHealth uses this metric as the profitability measure in its incentive compensation plans that have a profitability component and to evaluate acquisition opportunities, where it is most often used for purposes of contingent consideration arrangements. In addition,AdaptHealth's debt agreements contain covenants that use a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. For purposes of this metric, patient equipment capital expenditure is measured as the value of the patient equipment received during the accounting period without regard to whether the equipment is purchased or financed through lease transactions. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex should not be considered as measures of financial performance underU.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance withU.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure ofAdaptHealth's liquidity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
AdaptHealth's principal sources of liquidity are its operating cash flows, borrowings under its credit agreements and other debt arrangements, and proceeds from equity issuances.AdaptHealth has used these funds to meet its capital requirements, which primarily consist of salaries, labor, benefits and other employee-related costs, product and supply costs, third-party customer service, billing and collections and logistics costs, capital expenditures including patient equipment, acquisitions and debt service.AdaptHealth's future capital expenditure requirements will depend on many factors, including its patient volume and revenue growth rates.AdaptHealth's capital expenditures are made in advance of patients beginning service. Certain operating costs are incurred at the beginning of the equipment service period and during initial patient set up.AdaptHealth believes that its expected operating cash flows, together with its existing cash, cash equivalents, and amounts available under its existing credit agreement, will continue to be sufficient to fund its operations and growth strategies for at least the next twelve months.AdaptHealth intends to seek additional equity or debt financing in connection with the growth of its business, primarily acquisitions. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruption in the capital markets, which could make financing more difficult and/or expensive. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources,AdaptHealth may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all. If additional capital is unavailable when desired,AdaptHealth's business, results of operations, and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. As ofDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth had approximately$100 million of cash and cash equivalents. To supplement its cash liquidity, inApril 2020 ,AdaptHealth received recoupable advance payments of approximately$46 million which were made available by CMS under the CARES Act. The recoupment of such amount by CMS will begin inApril 2021 and will be applied to services provided and revenue recognized during the period in which the recoupment occurs. The total of the recoupable advance payments has been deferred as ofDecember 31, 2020 . In addition, inApril 2020 ,AdaptHealth received distributions of the CARES Act provider relief funds of approximately$17 million which are targeted to offset lost revenue and expenditures incurred in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. The provider relief funds are subject to certain restrictions and are subject to recoupment if not used for designated purposes. As a condition to receiving distributions, providers must agree to certain terms and conditions, including, among other things, that the funds are being used for lost revenues and unreimbursed COVID-19 related expenses as defined by HHS. During the year endedDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth recognized grant income of$14.3 million related to the provider relief fund payments received.AdaptHealth has deferred$2.7 million of the provider relief fund payments as ofDecember 31, 2020 . As previously noted, HHS guidance related to provider relief funds is still evolving and subject to change. During September andOctober 2020 , HHS issued updated reporting requirements significantly changing the previous guidance regarding utilization of the funds granted from the provider relief funds under the CARES Act, and inJanuary 2021 HHS issued further guidance updating the reporting requirements relating to 56
Table of Contents
provider relief grant funds. As a result of the updated guidance from HHS,AdaptHealth could be required to reverse the recognition of the grant income recorded and return a portion of the funds recognized, which could be material toAdaptHealth .AdaptHealth is continuing to monitor the reporting requirements as they evolve. HHS has indicated that the CARES Act provider relief funds are subject to ongoing reporting and changes to the terms and conditions. To the extent that reporting requirements and terms and conditions are modified in the future, it may affectAdaptHealth's ability to comply and may require the return of funds. Furthermore, HHS has indicated that it will be closely monitoring and, along with theOffice of Inspector General (United States ) (OIG), auditing providers to ensure that recipients comply with the terms and conditions of relief programs and to prevent fraud and abuse. All providers will be subject to civil and criminal penalties for any deliberate omissions, misrepresentations or falsifications of any information given to HHS. In addition, in connection with certain acquisitions completed during the year endedDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth assumed liabilities of$3.7 million and$1.9 million relating to funds previously received by the acquired companies for CMS recoupable advance payments and the CARES Act provider relief funds, respectively, which are deferred atDecember 31, 2020 . InMarch 2020 ,AdaptHealth borrowed$20.0 million under its then existing credit facility as a precaution in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and such amount was repaid inApril 2020 . Also, as permitted under the CARES Act,AdaptHealth has elected to defer certain portions of employer-paid FICA taxes otherwise payable fromMarch 27, 2020 toJanuary 1, 2021 , which will be paid in two equal installments onDecember 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2022 . During the year endedDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth deferred a total of$8.6 million pursuant to this provision, of which$4.3 million is included in other current liabilities and$4.3 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as ofDecember 31, 2020 . OnJanuary 8, 2021 ,AdaptHealth issued 8.45 million shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of$33.00 per share pursuant to an underwritten public offering (the "2021 Stock Offering") for gross proceeds of$278.9 million . In connection with this transaction, the Company received proceeds of$265.6 million which is net of the underwriting discount. A portion of the proceeds from the 2021 Stock Offering were used to partially finance the cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisition ofAeroCare Holdings, Inc. onFebruary 1, 2021 , and to pay related fees and expenses. AtDecember 31, 2020 ,AdaptHealth had$303.4 million outstanding under its then existing credit facility. InJuly 2020 ,AdaptHealth refinanced its debt borrowings and entered into a new credit agreement with a new bank group (the "2020 Credit Agreement"). OnJanuary 20, 2021 ,AdaptHealth refinanced its debt borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement and entered into a new credit agreement (the "2021 Credit Agreement"). The 2021 Credit Agreement consists of a$700 million term loan (the 2021 Term Loan) and$250 million in commitments for revolving credit loans with a$55 million letter of credit sublimit (the "2021 Revolver"), both with maturities inJanuary 2026 . The borrowing under the 2021 Term Loan requires quarterly principal repayments of$4.375 million beginningJune 30, 2021 throughMarch 31, 2023 , increasing to$8.75 million beginningJune 30, 2023 throughDecember 31, 2025 , and the unpaid principal balance is due at maturity inJanuary 2026 . Borrowings under the 2021 Term Loan were used in part to partially finance the cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisition ofAeroCare Holdings, Inc. onFebruary 1, 2021 , to repay existing amounts outstanding under the 2020 Credit Agreement, and to pay related fees and expenses. No amounts were borrowed under the 2021 Revolver as ofDecember 31, 2020 . Borrowings under the 2021 Revolver may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including for capital expenditures and acquisitions permitted under the 2021 Credit Agreement. Amounts borrowed under the 2021 Credit Agreement bear interest quarterly at variable rates based upon the sum of (a) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate (subject to a floor) equal to the LIBOR (as defined) for the applicable interest period multiplied by the statutory reserve rate, plus (b) an applicable margin (as defined) ranging from 1.50% to 3.25% per annum based on the Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined). The 2021 Revolver carries a commitment fee during the term of the 2021 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum of the actual daily undrawn portion of the 2021 Revolver based on the Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio. Under the 2021 Credit Agreement,AdaptHealth is subject to a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things, impose operating and financial restrictions onAdaptHealth . Financial covenants include a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, both as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement. The 2021 Credit Agreement also contains certain customary events of default, including, among other things, failure to make payments when due thereunder, failure to observe or perform certain covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency-related events, and non-compliance with healthcare laws. Any borrowing under the 2021 Credit Agreement may be repaid, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty, other than customary 57
Table of Contents
breakage costs, and any amounts repaid under the 2021 Revolver may be reborrowed. Mandatory prepayments are required under the 2021 Revolver when borrowings and letter of credit usage exceed the total commitments for revolving credit loans. Mandatory prepayments are also required in connection with the disposition of assets to the extent not reinvested, unpermitted debt transactions, and excess cash flow, as defined, if certain leverage tests are not met.

InMarch 2019 ,AdaptHealth entered into a promissory note agreement with an investor with a principal amount of$100 million (the "Promissory Note"). InNovember 2019 , in connection with the transactions completed as part of the Business Combination, the Promissory Note was replaced with a new amended and restated promissory note with a principal amount of$100.0 million , and the investor converted certain of its members' equity interests to a$43.5 million promissory note.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates
The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance withU.S. GAAP. The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements requires its management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company's management bases its estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements which, in turn, could change the results from those reported. In addition, actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations. Critical accounting policies and significant estimates are those that the Company's management considers the most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations because they require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company's critical accounting policies and significant estimates in relation to its consolidated financial statements include those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, business combinations, and goodwill valuation. Revenue Recognition The Company generates revenues for services and related products that the Company provides to patients for home medical equipment, related supplies, and other items. The Company's revenues are recognized in the period in which services and related products are provided to customers and are recorded either at a point in time for the sale of supplies and disposables, or over the fixed monthly service period for equipment. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised good or service is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive from patients or under reimbursement arrangements with Medicare, Medicaid and third-party payors, in exchange for those goods
and services. 60 Table of Contents
Performance obligations are determined based on the nature of the services provided. The majority of the Company's services and related products represent a bundle of services that are not capable of being distinct and as such, are treated as a single performance obligation satisfied over time as services are rendered. The Company determines the transaction price based on contractually agreed-upon amounts or rates, adjusted for estimates of variable consideration, such as implicit price concessions. The Company utilizes the expected value method to determine the amount of variable consideration that should be included to arrive at the transaction price, using contractual agreements and historical reimbursement experience within each payor type. The Company applies constraint to the transaction price, such that net revenue is recorded only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in the future. If actual amounts of consideration ultimately received differ from the Company's estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect net revenue in the period such adjustments become known. Sales revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenues for the sale of durable medical equipment and related supplies, including oxygen equipment, ventilators, wheelchairs, hospital beds and infusion pumps, are recognized when control of the promised good or service is transferred to customers, which is generally upon shipment for direct to consumer supplies and upon delivery to the home for durable medical equipment. The Company provides certain equipment to patients which is reimbursed periodically in fixed monthly payments for as long as the patient is using the equipment and medical necessity continues (in certain cases, the fixed monthly payments are capped at a certain amount). The equipment provided to the patient is based upon medical necessity as documented by prescriptions and other documentation received from the patient's physician. The patient generally does not negotiate or have input with respect to the manufacturer or model of the equipment prescribed by their physician and delivered by the Company. Once initial delivery of this equipment is made to the patient for initial setup, a monthly billing process is established based on the initial setup service date. The Company recognizes the fixed monthly revenue ratably over the service period as earned, less estimated adjustments, and defers revenue for the portion of the monthly bill that is unearned. No separate revenue is earned from the initial setup process. Included in fixed monthly revenue are unbilled amounts for which the revenue recognition criteria had been met as of period-end but were not yet billed to the payor. The estimate of net unbilled fixed monthly revenue recognized is based on historical trends and estimates of future collectability. The Company's billing system contains payor-specific price tables that reflect the fee schedule amounts in effect or contractually agreed upon by various government and commercial payors for each item of equipment or supply provided to a customer. Revenues are recorded based on the applicable fee schedule. The Company has established a contractual allowance to account for adjustments that result from differences between the payment amount received and the expected realizable amount. If the payment amount received differs from the net realizable amount, an adjustment is recorded to revenues in the period that these payment differences are determined. The Company reports revenues in its consolidated financial statements net of such adjustments.
Accounts Receivable
Due to the continuing changes in the healthcare industry and third-party reimbursement environment, certain estimates are required to record accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. The complexity of third-party billing arrangements and laws and regulations governing Medicare and Medicaid may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. The Company performs a periodic analysis to review the valuation of accounts receivable and collectability of outstanding balances. Management's evaluation takes into consideration such factors as historical bad debt experience, business and economic conditions, trends in healthcare coverage, other collection indicators and information about specific receivables. The Company's evaluation also considers the age and composition of the outstanding amounts in determining their estimated net realizable value. 61

Receivables are considered past due when not collected by established due dates. Specific patient balances are written off after collection efforts have been followed and the account has been determined to be uncollectible. Revisions in reserve estimates are recorded as an adjustment to net revenue in the period of revision. Included in accounts receivable are earned but unbilled accounts receivables. Billing delays, ranging from several days to several weeks, can occur due to the Company's policy of compiling required payor specific documentation prior to billing for its services rendered. In the event that a third-party payor does not accept the claim, the customer is ultimately responsible for payment for the products or services. The Company recognizes revenue in the statements of operations and contract assets on the consolidated balance sheets only when services have been provided. Since the Company has performed its obligation under the contract, it has unconditional rights to the consideration recorded as contract assets and therefore classifies those billed and unbilled contract assets as accounts receivable.
Business Combinations
The Company applies the acquisition method of accounting for business acquisitions. The results of operations of the businesses acquired by the Company are included as of the respective acquisition date. The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred, including the fair value of any contingent consideration, is allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. To the extent the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, such excess is allocated to goodwill. Patient relationships, medical records and patient lists are not reported as separate intangible assets due to the regulatory requirements and lack of contractual agreements but are part of goodwill. Customer related relationships are not reported as separate intangible assets but are part of goodwill as authorizing physicians are under no obligation to refer the Company's services to their patients, who are free to change physicians and service providers at any time. The Company may adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation, as necessary, as it obtains more information regarding asset valuations and liabilities assumed that existed but were not available at the acquisition date, which is generally up to one year after the acquisition closing date. Acquisition related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.
Valuation of
The Company has a significant amount of goodwill on its balance sheet that resulted from the business acquisitions the Company has made in recent years.Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually and upon the occurrence of a triggering event or change in circumstances indicating a possible impairment. Such changes in circumstance can include, among others, changes in the legal environment, reimbursement environment, operating performance, and/or future prospects. The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year. The impairment testing can be performed on either a quantitative or qualitative basis. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform quantitative goodwill impairment testing. If determined necessary, the Company applies the quantitative impairment test to identify and measure the amount of impairment, if any. The Company's long-lived assets, such as equipment and other fixed assets and definite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Definite-lived intangible assets consist of payor contracts, developed technology and tradenames. These assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be consumed. These assets are tested for impairment consistent with the Company's long-lived assets. The following table summarizes the useful lives of the intangible assets acquired: 62 Table of Contents Payor contracts 10 years Developed technology 5 years Tradenames 5 to 10 years

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business that cover a wide range of matters. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company's management believes any liability that may ultimately result from its resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial conditions or results of operations.
Other contingencies arising in the normal course of business relate to acquisitions and the related contingent purchase prices and deferred payments.
