Ted Wall, Chief Executive Officer Good morning everyone and welcome to HCSG's second quarter 2026 earnings call. With me today are Matt McKee, our Chief Communications Officer, and Vikas Singh, our Chief Financial Officer.

I'd like to now share our perspective on the general business environment.

Industry fundamentals continue to gain strength highlighted by the multi-decade demographic tailwind that is now beginning to work its way into the long-term and post-acute care system. In 2026 the first of the baby boomers are turning 80 years old and by the year 2030 all 70 million plus boomers will be over the age of 65 with the oldest being in their mid-80s, the primary age cohort for long-term and post-acute care utilization. We expect that the demand and opportunity for service providers in this space, especially for those with compelling value propositions, durable business models and market leading positions, to only increase in the months and years ahead.

The most recent industry operating trends remain positive as well, highlighted by steady occupancy, a growing industry workforce that has now recovered to its pre-pandemic baseline, and a stable reimbursement environment. We are also very encouraged by the Administration's ongoing efforts to rationalize regulations and policy, highlighted by recent announcements on deregulation, payment rules, and survey processes which better align with the changing and expanding needs of our nation's most vulnerable and the provider communities we service.

Beyond our core industry trends, we are closely monitoring the broader macro landscape including sustained volatility in global energy and supply markets resulting from the ongoing geopolitical conflicts. Our role as financial stewards for our clients remains a non-negotiable priority and serves as our North Star as we navigate this environment. To that end, our purchasing and procurement teams are actively monitoring the landscape and surveying our supply chain to stay ahead of any developing trends. Fundamental to these efforts is the depth of our long-standing vendor partnership
