I. Recent Historical Trends and Outlook for Fiscal Year 2017:

The Health Systems financial performance for the fiscal years 2012 through 2016 is
summarized in Table 1 below. For FY 2016, the Health System had a $47.0 million increase in
total revenue, increased non-capital expenses of $32.7 million and increased capital expenses of
$0.7 million. A large reason for the increase in revenues and expenses year over year is that
MBHS acquired two critical access hospitals, Baptist Medical Center-Yazoo (BMC-Yazoo) and
Baptist Medical Center-Attala (BMC-Attala) during FY 2015 and there was a full year of activity
during FY2016 versus a partial year during the acquisition year of FY 2015. Additionally,
MBHS had significant growth in its primary care network through the acquisition of Premier
Medical Group in October 2015. The remaining increase in operating revenues can be attributed
to inpatient and outpatient volume growth, decrease in average length of stay and assets released
from restriction of $5.0 million during FY 2016.

Included for comparison is the FY 2017 budget. In FY 2017, the Health System budget
reflects a $15.3 million increase in total revenue principally resulting from increased outpatient
and inpatient volume, payor rate increases and revenue enhancement strategies. These increases
are offset by the lease of Restorative Care Hospital, MBHSs long-term acute care hospital, and
BMC-Leakes extended care facility, together comprising over $12 million in revenues during
FY 2016. Non-capital expenses are budgeted to increase $13.0 million or 2.8%, also net of the
impact of the decrease in expenses associated with the leased facilities. For FY 2017, budgeted
operating EBIDA is $41.1 million, as compared to $38.8 million for FY 2016, while budgeted
operating income is breakeven as compared to an operating loss of $3.3 million for FY 2016.
Overall, the budgeted revenue in excess of expenses is $5.6 million, a 4.3 million increase from
FY 2016 to FY 2017. Table 1

III. Review of Consolidated Results for the six months ended February 28, 2017:
The Health Systems financial performance for the six months ended February 28,
2017 is summarized in Table 3 below. This table shows year-to-date operating loss of
$6.7 million and operating EBIDA of $13.4 million. Net operating revenue decreased
1.7% over prior year, and under budgeted growth by $10.9 million. Actual inpatient
volume as compared to budgeted volume for the Medical Center was ahead of budget by
264 admissions and ahead of prior year by 402 admissions. Outpatient volume was above
budget expectations and above prior year. Actual non-capital operating expenses are
below both budgeted expectations and prior year. Actual capital related expenses are
below prior year and budgeted amounts. This resulted in an operating loss of $6.7
million for the February 2017 year-to-date financial performance as compared to a
budgeted loss of $1.2 million. The non-operating gain is $17.2 million versus the
budgeted gain of $5.3 million and the $12.0 million loss in the prior year. Included in
this line item are year-to-date realized investment gains totaling $1.3 million, unrealized
investment gains of $6.9 million, and a $9.7 million positive change in valuation of the
fixed payer swap transaction entered into in March 2007.

In September 2016, MBHS entered into a Letter of Intent with Baptist Memorial
Health Care Corporation with the intent of merging the two institutions which is
discussed under Section XI of the report.

IV. System Operating EBIDA for the Second Quarter:

As can be seen in Table 4 below, the System generated an operating EBIDA of $8.9
million for the second quarter. This performance is lower than our budget of $11.4
million, and more than the prior year income of $6.6 million. Admissions in the second
quarter were above budget expectations and above prior year totals. Total revenue in the
second quarter was under budgeted expectations by $7.2 million and $4.3 million less
than the same time period last fiscal year. Non-capital expenses were under budget and
under prior year.

V. Utilization Statistics and Payor Mix:

As discussed in the operating EBIDA results summary, the Medical Centers


inpatient volumes (admissions) for fiscal 2017 are above budgeted levels and above prior
year. For fiscal 2017, the Medical Centers patient day volume is 1.9% below budget.
Overall average length of stay was favorable to budget and remains to be a key focus area
for FY 2017. Key ancillary areas remained consistent over prior year. Outpatient hospital
volumes are ahead of budget and above prior year, mainly due to the addition of 5
provider based clinics in the beginning of FY 2017. Hospital payor mix as of the first
half of the fiscal year reflected a shift from commercial payors to governmental payors.

* Total outpatient cases changed from prior year reports due to the new system Paragon and how it calculates the outpatient hospital

Because of this change, 2011 to 2014 numbers have been restated to be consistent with the new reporting.

VI. Combined Balance Sheet as of February 28, 2017:

The combined Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2017, and prior years for Baptist
Health Systems and its subsidiaries are shown below in Table 6. Total assets of $688.3
million as of February 28, 2017, decreased $4.9 million from August 31, 2016 year-end
balance. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is primarily the result of the transfer
of cash to the Health Systems investment portfolio, which is a driver for the increase in
assets limited to use. The change in inventory and prepaid expenses is mainly due to the
timing of payments made for maintenance contracts and insurance coverage.

VIII. Days Cash on Hand:

As shown in Table 8, Baptists DCOH increased over the prior fiscal year end.
The primary reason for the increase is the change in unrestricted cash and investments
primarily driven by the decrease of $10.1 million in the collateral posting requirements
under the swap agreement, as discussed in Interest Rate Derivatives, and increased
investment returns. This is offset slightly by the increase in average daily cash operating
expenses.

IX. Interest Rate Derivatives:

On March 1, 2007 Mississippi Baptist Health Systems entered into a 67% of one-
month LIBOR fixed payor swap with USBAG. The swap had a notational amount of $80
million (Series 2007B bonds) and is fixed at 3.759% for a term of thirty years.

As a result of the 2010 Fitch downgrade to BBB+ by Fitch Ratings, earlier in


2013, UBS requested that Baptist post collateral on the value of the swap agreement, in
accordance with our swap agreement executed with the Series 2007 debt issuance. On
April 29, 2013, Baptist entered into a swap novation agreement with Deutsche Bank. The
agreement calls for Deutsche Bank to post $5M of collateral at the BBB rating level, by
Fitch ratings with a net interest cost of 6.25 bps on the $80M swap. As of February 28,
2017, the Health System has posted collateral of approximately $17 million, a decrease of
$10.1 million from August 31, 2016.

As of February 28, 2017 the valuation of the swap was a $21.4 million liability, a
decrease of $9.7 million from August 31, 2016. This is reported on the balance sheet in
other long-term liabilities.

X. MBHS Debt Structure:

2007A Bond Issue - $121 million fixed rate issue, part of a $201 million issued
sold through the Mississippi Hospital Equipment and Facilities Authority (MHEFA) in
March 2007. Five percent fixed rate interest is paid semiannually in February and
August with annual principal payments also paid in August. The principal balance as of
February 28, 2017 is $81,605,000.

2009 Bond Issue $80 million variable rate demand bonds issued through
Regions Bank in May 2009. This issue was used to close an $80 million line of credit
