Cash Flow Analysis
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2017 totaled $50.2 million, compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $78.7 million in the prior year. The decline in operating cash flows for the first six months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the same prior year period, is due to the timing of funds related to certain Medicaid supplemental reimbursement programs and an increase in operating expenses associated with the Company’s conversion to a new clinical and revenue cycle system. Additionally, the prior year six months ended March 31, 2016, was positively impacted by the receipt of income tax refunds. Cash flows used in investing activities for the first six months of fiscal 2017 totaled $58.7 million, compared to $69.7 million in the prior year period.
Information Systems Conversion
The Company is currently in the process of converting to new integrated clinical and revenue cycle systems, a project in which the Company expects to make significant investments through the 2019 fiscal year. During the first six months of fiscal 2017, the Company spent $32.1 million in cash associated with its conversion efforts, $8.5 million of which is included in cash flows provided by operating activities, $18.6 million is included in cash flows used in investing activities and $5.0 million is included in cash flows used in financing activities. During the same six months period in the prior year, the Company spent $13.3 million in cash associated with its conversion efforts, $3.3 million of which is included in cash flows provided by operating activities, $8.2 million of which is included in cash flows used in investing activities and $1.8 million of which is included in cash flows used in financing activities.

Some of the statements we make in this press release are forward-looking within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical statements of fact and those regarding the Company’s intent, belief or expectations including, but not limited to, future financial and operating results, the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results in future periods to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. These risk factors and uncertainties are more fully described in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this press release are reasonable, any of these assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this press release will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, you should not regard the inclusion of such information as a representation by the Company or any other person that the Company’s objectives and plans will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events and circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Adjusted EBITDA and normalized adjusted EBITDA are each non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA represents net earnings (loss) from continuing operations before net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, gain on disposal of assets, and management fees. Management fees represent monitoring and advisory fees paid to management companies affiliated with TPG and JLL. Normalized adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted EBITDA before losses associated with the Company’s Arizona health insurance marketplace exchange plan, IT conversion related costs, EHR settlements related to prior years, initial public offering, advisory and other legal and regulatory cost and costs associated with systems improvement efforts at the Company’s Houston operations. Management routinely calculates and communicates adjusted EBITDA and believes that it is useful to investors because it is commonly used as an analytical indicator within the healthcare industry to evaluate performance, allocate resources and measure leverage capacity and debt service ability. In addition, the Company uses adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial and operating performance for its business segments and on a consolidated basis and for incentive compensation purposes. In addition, management believes that the presentation of normalized adjusted EBITDA assists investors in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operational performance by excluding the impact of certain items that the Company believes may not be reflective of underlying business performance. Neither adjusted EBITDA nor normalized adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, and the items excluded from such measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Neither adjusted EBITDA nor normalized adjusted EBITDA should be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net earnings, cash flows generated by operating, investing, or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and normalized adjusted EBITDA, as presented, differ from “adjusted EBITDA” as defined under the Company’s senior secured credit agreements and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. A table describing adjusted EBITDA and normalized adjusted EBITDA and reconciling net earnings (loss) from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA and normalized adjusted EBITDA is included later in this press release in the attached Supplemental Consolidated Statements of Operations Information.
