COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Community Health Systems, Inc. (the Parent or Parent Company) and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018 (2017 Form 10-K).
Noncontrolling interests in less-than-wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries of the Parent are presented as a component of total equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets to distinguish between the interests of the Parent Company and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. Noncontrolling interests that are redeemable or may become redeemable at a fixed or determinable price at the option of the holder or upon the occurrence of an event outside of the control of the Company are presented in mezzanine equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Throughout these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, Community Health Systems, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries are referred to on a collective basis as the Company. This drafting style is not meant to indicate that the publicly traded Parent or any particular subsidiary of the Parent owns or operates any asset, business, or property. The hospitals, operations and businesses described in this filing are owned and operated by distinct and indirect subsidiaries of Community Health Systems, Inc.
Revenue Recognition. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue recognition accounting standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and codified in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) as topic 606 (ASC 606). The revenue recognition standard in ASC 606 outlines a single comprehensive model for recognizing revenue as performance obligations, defined in a contract with a customer as goods or services transferred to the customer in exchange for consideration, are satisfied. The standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding the Companys revenue recognition policies and significant judgments employed in the determination of revenue.
The Company applied the modified retrospective approach to all contracts when adopting ASC 606. As a result, at the adoption of ASC 606 the majority of what was previously classified as the provision for bad debts in the statement of operations is now reflected as implicit price concessions (as defined in ASC 606) and therefore included as a reduction to net operating revenues in 2018. For changes in credit issues not assessed at the date of service, the Company will prospectively recognize those amounts in other operating expenses on the statement of operations. For periods prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the provision for bad debts has been presented consistent with the previous revenue recognition standards that required it to be presented separately as a component of net operating revenues. Additionally, upon adoption of Topic 606 the allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $3.9 billion as of January 1, 2018 was reclassified as a component of net patient accounts receivable. Other than these changes in presentation on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and condensed consolidated balance sheet, the adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, and the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations for the remainder of 2018 and on a prospective basis.
As part of the adoption of ASC 606, the Company elected two of the available practical expedients provided for in the standard. First, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for any financing components as those were deemed to be insignificant. Additionally, the Company expenses all incremental customer contract acquisition costs as incurred as such costs are not material and would be amortized over a period less than one year.

COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
Net Operating Revenues
Upon the adoption of ASC 606, net operating revenues are recorded at the transaction price estimated by the Company to reflect the total consideration due from patients and third-party payors in exchange for providing goods and services in patient care. These services are considered to be a single performance obligation and have a duration of less than one year. Revenues are recorded as these goods and services are provided. The transaction price, which involves significant estimates, is determined based on the Companys standard charges for the goods and services provided, with a reduction recorded for price concessions related to third party contractual arrangements as well as patient discounts and other patient price concessions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the impact of changes to the inputs used to determine the transaction price was considered immaterial to the current period.
Currently, several states utilize supplemental reimbursement programs for the purpose of providing reimbursement to providers to offset a portion of the cost of providing care to Medicaid and indigent patients. These programs are designed with input from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and are funded with a combination of state and federal resources, including, in certain instances, fees or taxes levied on the providers. Under these supplemental programs, the Company recognizes revenue and related expenses in the period in which amounts are estimable and collection is reasonably assured. Reimbursement under these programs is reflected in net operating revenues and fees, taxes or other program-related costs are reflected in other operating expenses.
The Companys net operating revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 have been presented in the table based on an allocation of the estimated transaction price with the patient between the primary patient classification of insurance coverage (in millions):

Patient Accounts Receivable
Patient accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value based on certain assumptions determined by each payor. For third-party payors including Medicare, Medicaid, and Managed Care, the net realizable value is based on the estimated contractual reimbursement percentage, which is based on current contract prices or historical paid claims data by payor. For self-pay accounts receivable, which includes patients who are uninsured and the patient responsibility portion for patients with insurance, the net realizable value is determined using estimates of historical collection experience without regard to aging category. These estimates are adjusted for estimated conversions of patient responsibility portions, expected recoveries and any anticipated changes in trends.
Patient accounts receivable can be impacted by the effectiveness of the Companys collection efforts. Additionally, significant changes in payor mix, business office operations, economic conditions or trends in federal and state governmental healthcare coverage could affect the net realizable value of accounts receivable. The Company also continually reviews the net realizable value of accounts receivable by monitoring historical cash collections as a percentage of trailing net operating revenues, as well as by analyzing current period net revenue and admissions by payor classification, aged accounts receivable by payor, days revenue outstanding, the composition of self-pay receivables between pure self-pay patients and the patient responsibility portion of third-party insured receivables and the impact of recent acquisitions and dispositions.
Final settlements for some payors and programs are subject to adjustment based on administrative review and audit by third parties. As a result of these final settlements, the Company has recorded amounts due to third-party payors of $140 million and $156 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and these amounts are included in accrued liabilities-other in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts due from third-party payors were $150 million and $153 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and are included in other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Substantially all Medicare and Medicaid cost reports are final settled through 2014.

Charity Care
In the ordinary course of business, the Company renders services to patients who are financially unable to pay for hospital care. The Companys policy is to not pursue collections for such amounts; therefore, the related charges for those patients who are financially unable to pay and that otherwise do not qualify for reimbursement from a governmental program are not reported in net operating revenues, and are thus classified as charity care. The Company determines amounts that qualify for charity care primarily based on the patients household income relative to the federal poverty level guidelines, as established by the federal government.
These charity care services are estimated to be $121 million and $116 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $350 million and $358 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing the value (at the Companys standard charges) of these charity care services that are excluded from net operating revenues. The estimated cost incurred by the Company to provide these charity care services to patients who are unable to pay was approximately $15 million for both of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and $43 million and $45 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The estimated cost of these charity care services was determined using a ratio of cost to gross charges and applying that ratio to the gross charges associated with providing care to charity patients for the period.
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded a total combined impairment charge and loss on disposal of approximately $314 million, of which (i) approximately $225 million was recorded to reduce the carrying value of certain hospitals that have been sold or deemed held for sale based on the difference between the carrying value of the hospital disposal groups compared to estimated fair value less costs to sell, (ii) approximately $29 million was recorded to write-off the value of a promissory note received as consideration for the sale of three hospitals in 2017 where the buyer recently entered into bankruptcy proceedings, and (iii) approximately $60 million was recorded primarily to adjust the carrying value of other long-lived assets at several underperforming hospitals that have ceased operations or where the Company is in discussions with potential buyers for divestiture at a sales price that indicates a fair value below carrying value. Included in the carrying value of the hospital disposal groups at September 30, 2018 is a net allocation of approximately $113 million of goodwill allocated from the hospital operations reporting unit goodwill based on a calculation of the disposal groups relative fair value compared to the total reporting unit. The Company will continue to evaluate the potential for further impairment of the long-lived assets of underperforming hospitals as well as evaluating offers for potential sales. Based on such analysis, additional impairment charges may be recorded in the future.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a total impairment charge of approximately $363 million to reduce the carrying value of certain hospitals that were deemed held for sale based on the difference between the carrying value of the hospital disposal groups compared to estimated fair value less costs to sell. Included in the carrying value of the hospital disposal groups is a net allocation of approximately $229 million of goodwill allocated from the hospital operations reporting unit goodwill based on a calculation of the disposal groups relative fair value compared to the total reporting unit.
New Accounting Pronouncements. In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for equity investments, other than those accounted for under the equity method or that require consolidation of the investee. The ASU eliminates the classification of equity investments as available-for-sale with any changes in fair value of such investments recognized in other comprehensive income, and requires entities to measure equity investments at fair value, with any changes in fair value recognized in net income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. To adopt this ASU, companies must record a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings at the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a reclassification of $6 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss as a decrease to accumulated deficit.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which amends the accounting for leases, requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet with a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating leases, which will impact the expense recognition of such leases over the lease term. The ASU also modifies the lease classification criteria for lessors and eliminates some of the real estate leasing guidance previously applied for certain leasing transactions. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2019. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which provides entities relief from the transition requirements in ASU 2016-02 by allowing them to elect not to recast prior comparative periods. The Company plans to elect this method of transition upon adoption of this ASU. Because of the number of leases the Company utilizes to support its operations,
8
COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
the adoption of this ASU is expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company has organized an implementation group of cross-functional departmental management to ensure the completeness of its lease information, analyze the appropriate classification of current leases under the new standard, and develop new processes to execute, approve and classify leases on an ongoing basis. The Company has also engaged outside experts to assist in the development and execution of this plan, as well as the identification and selection of software tools and processes to maintain lease information critical to applying the new standard. Management is currently evaluating the extent of this anticipated impact on the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations, and the quantitative and qualitative factors that will impact the Company as part of the adoption of this ASU, as well as any changes to its leasing strategy that may occur because of the changes to the accounting and recognition of leases. As part of the Companys final implementation efforts during the fourth quarter of 2018, management intends to finalize the quantitative inputs that will determine the impact on the consolidated financial statements from adopting the new standard, including the schedule of future rent payments and the appropriate discount rate used to determine the lease liability and right of use asset for outstanding leases at the date of adoption.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, which changes the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost for sponsors of defined benefit plans for pensions. Under the changes in this ASU, the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost is reported in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services during the reporting period. The other components of net periodic benefit cost are presented separately in a line item outside of operating income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, which amends hedge accounting recognition and disclosure requirements to improve transparency and simplify the application of hedge accounting for certain hedging instruments. The amendments in this ASU that will have an impact on the Company include simplification of the periodic hedge effectiveness assessment, elimination of the benchmark interest rate concept for interest rate swaps, and enhancement of the ability to use the critical-terms match method for its cash flow hedges of forecasted interest payments. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from the enactment of the comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) and corresponding accounting treatment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in this ASU is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company early adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018, and the Company has elected to reclassify $6 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to a decrease to accumulated deficit for these stranded tax effects. The stranded tax effects included in this adjustment relate solely to the reduction of the federal corporate tax rate as a result of the Tax Act. The Companys accounting policy on releasing the income tax effects of amounts from Accumulated other comprehensive loss has been to apply such amounts on a portfolio basis.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 to provide guidance on the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is accounted for as a service contract. This ASU requires entities to account for such costs consistent with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
2. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation awards have been granted under the Community Health Systems, Inc. Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan, amended and restated as of March 20, 2013 (the 2000 Plan), and the Community Health Systems, Inc. Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Option and Award Plan, which was amended and restated as of March 14, 2018 and approved by the Companys stockholders at the annual meeting of stockholders held on May 15, 2018 (the 2009 Plan).

COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
The 2000 Plan allowed for the grant of incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the IRC), as well as stock options which do not so qualify, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based shares or units and other share awards. Prior to being amended in 2009, the 2000 Plan also allowed for the grant of phantom stock. Persons eligible to receive grants under the 2000 Plan include the Companys directors, officers, employees and consultants. All options granted under the 2000 Plan have been nonqualified stock options for tax purposes. Generally, vesting of these granted options occurs in one-third increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the award date. Options granted prior to 2005 have a 10-year contractual term, options granted in 2005 through 2007 have an eight-year contractual term and options granted in 2008 through 2011 have a 10-year contractual term. The Company has not granted stock option awards under the 2000 Plan since 2011. Pursuant to the amendment and restatement of the 2000 Plan dated March 20, 2013, no further grants will be awarded under the 2000 Plan.
The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the IRC and for the grant of stock options which do not so qualify, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based shares or units and other share awards. Persons eligible to receive grants under the 2009 Plan include the Companys directors, officers, employees and consultants. To date, all options granted under the 2009 Plan have been nonqualified stock options for tax purposes. Generally, vesting of these granted options occurs in one-third increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the award date. Options granted in 2011 or later have a 10-year contractual term. As of September 30, 2018, 8,680,357 shares of unissued common stock were reserved for future grants under the 2009 Plan.
The exercise price of all options granted under the 2000 Plan and the 2009 Plan has been equal to the fair value of the Companys common stock on the option grant date.

No stock options were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The aggregate intrinsic value (calculated as the number of in-the-money stock options multiplied by the difference between the Companys closing stock price on the last trading day of the reporting period ($3.46) and the exercise price of the respective stock options) in the table above represents the amount that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on September 30, 2018. This amount changes based on the market value of the Companys common stock. There were no options exercised during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The aggregate intrinsic value of options vested and expected to vest approximates that of the outstanding options.
The Company has also awarded restricted stock under the 2000 Plan and the 2009 Plan to employees of certain subsidiaries. The restrictions on these shares generally lapse in one-third increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the award date. Certain of the restricted stock awards granted to the Companys senior executives contain a performance objective that must be met in addition to any time-based vesting requirements. If the applicable performance objective is not attained, the awards will be forfeited in their entirety. For such performance-based awards granted prior to 2017, once the target performance objective was attained, restrictions lapse in one-third increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the award date. For performance-based awards granted beginning in March 2017, the performance objectives are measured cumulatively over a three-year period. With respect to these performance-based awards granted beginning in March 2017, if the applicable target performance objective is met at the end of three years, then the portion of the restricted stock award subject to such performance objective will vest in full. Additionally, for these awards, based on the level of achievement for the applicable performance objective within the parameters specified in the award, the number of shares to be issued in connection with the vesting of the award will be adjusted to decrease or increase the number of shares specified in the original award. Notwithstanding the above-mentioned performance objectives and vesting requirements, the restrictions with respect to restricted stock granted under the 2000 Plan and the 2009 Plan will lapse earlier in the event of death, disability or termination of employment by the Company for any reason other than for cause of the holder of the restricted stock, or change in control of the Company. Restricted stock awards subject to performance standards that have not yet been satisfied are not considered outstanding for purposes of determining earnings per share until the performance objectives have been satisfied.

3. COST OF REVENUE
Substantially all of the Companys operating costs and expenses are cost of revenue items. Operating costs that could be classified as general and administrative by the Company would include the Companys corporate office costs at its Franklin, Tennessee office, which were $46 million and $42 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $141 million and $135 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Included in these corporate office costs is stock-based compensation of $3 million and $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $10 million and $20 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
4. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
5. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
Acquisitions
The Company accounts for all transactions that represent business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, where the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entity are recognized and measured at their fair values on the date the Company obtains control in the acquiree. Such fair values that are not finalized for reporting periods following the acquisition date are estimated and recorded as provisional amounts. Adjustments to these provisional amounts during the measurement period (defined as the date through which all information required to identify and measure the consideration transferred, the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests has been obtained, limited to one year from the acquisition date) are recorded when identified. Goodwill is determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration conveyed in the acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, one or more subsidiaries of the Company paid approximately $21 million to acquire the operating assets and related businesses of certain physician practices, clinics and other ancillary businesses that operate within the communities served by the Companys affiliated hospitals. In connection with these acquisitions, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company allocated less than $1 million of the consideration paid to property and equipment and net working capital and the remainder, approximately $21 million consisting of intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, to goodwill. No hospitals were acquired in 2017 or during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Acquisition and integration expenses related to prospective and closed acquisitions included in other operating expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of loss were less than $1 million during both of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and approximately $2 million and approximately $1 million during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
A discontinued operation in U.S. GAAP is a disposal that represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entitys operations and financial results. Additional disclosures are required for significant components of the entity that are disposed of or are held for sale but do not qualify as discontinued operations. The divestitures above do not meet the criteria for reporting as discontinued operations and are included in continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.
On May 1, 2017, one or more subsidiaries of the Company sold AllianceHealth Pryor (52 licensed beds) in Pryor, Oklahoma, and its associated assets to Ardent Health Services Inc. for approximately $1 million in cash. This hospital has been reported in the condensed consolidated statements of loss in discontinued operations.
Net operating revenues and loss from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are as follows (in millions):

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company completed the planned closure of Twin Rivers Regional Medical Center in Kennett, Missouri. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018, to adjust the fair value of the supplies, inventory and long-lived assets of this hospital, including property and equipment and capitalized software costs, based on their estimated fair value and future utilization.
6. INCOME TAXES
The total amount of unrecognized benefit that would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized, was approximately $7 million as of September 30, 2018. A total of approximately $4 million of interest and penalties is included in the amount of the liability for uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2018. It is the Companys policy to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized benefits in its condensed consolidated statements of loss as income tax expense.
It is possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit could change in the next 12 months as a result of a lapse of the statute of limitations and settlements with taxing authorities; however, the Company does not anticipate the change will have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations or condensed consolidated financial position.
The Companys federal income tax returns for the 2009 and 2010 tax years have been settled with the Internal Revenue Service. The results of these examinations were not material to the Companys consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. The Companys federal income tax returns for the 2014 and 2015 tax years remain under examination by the Internal
15

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
Revenue Service. The Company believes the results of these examinations will not be material to its consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. The Company has extended the federal statute of limitations through June 30, 2019 for Community Health Systems, Inc. for the tax periods ended December 31, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, and through December 31, 2019 for the tax periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2015.
The Companys effective tax rates were (51.0)% and 40.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and (16.7)% and 16.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The difference in the Companys effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2018, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, was primarily due to the non-deductible portion of the amounts payable by the Company pursuant to the global resolution and settlement agreements related to certain HMA matters entered into with the U.S. Department of Justice as announced on September 25, 2018, the U.S. Federal limitation on deductibility of interest expense and non-deductible goodwill written off as part of the net impairment and (gain) loss on sale of businesses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017. The difference in the Companys effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was primarily due to the items noted above, as well as a disproportionate decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes when compared to the decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest for those same periods, which is not tax affected in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds received, resulted in a net refund of $8 million and less than $1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and a net refund of $17 million and net cash paid of $5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted the Tax Act, which made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including a permanent reduction in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% (Rate Reduction).
The Tax Act also made other changes to the U.S. tax code, which changes included, but were not limited to (1) creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; (2) changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards; and (3) modifying the rules governing the deductibility of certain executive compensation.
In December 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB 118), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Acts enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a companys accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but the company is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act.
The Company has not completed the accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Act. At December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a discrete net tax expense of $32 million primarily related to provisional amounts under SAB 118 for the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities due to Rate Reduction. No changes were recorded to this provisional estimate during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. However, this estimate may differ from the final accounting as supplemental legislation, regulatory guidance or evolving technical interpretations become available.
At September 30, 2018, the Company was not able to reasonably estimate and, therefore, has not recorded a provisional amount for the Tax Acts impact on certain state valuation allowances. The Company will complete its accounting for the Tax Act in the fourth quarter of 2018 in accordance with the prescribed measurement period under SAB 118.

Goodwill is allocated to each identified reporting unit, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment (referred to as a component of the entity). Management has determined that the Companys operating segments meet the criteria to be classified as reporting units. At September 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $4.6 billion of goodwill recorded.
Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and when an event occurs or circumstances change that, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. During 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2017-04, which allows a company to record a goodwill impairment when the reporting units carrying value exceeds the fair value determined in step one. In 2017, consistent with prior years, the Company performed its annual goodwill evaluation during the fourth quarter as of September 30, 2017, and then an updated evaluation as of November 30, 2017 due to the identification of certain impairment indicators. With the elimination of the time-intensive step two calculation to determine the implied value of goodwill, the Company has considered the additional benefits of performing the annual goodwill evaluation later in the fourth quarter to coincide with the timing of the next fiscal years budgeting and financial projection process. Based on these considerations, the Company has elected to change the annual goodwill impairment measurement date to October 31. The next annual goodwill evaluation will be performed during the fourth quarter of 2018 with an October 31, 2018 measurement date, or sooner if the Company identifies certain indicators of impairment.
The Company estimates the fair value of the related reporting units using both a discounted cash flow model as well as a market multiple model. The cash flow forecasts are adjusted by an appropriate discount rate based on the Companys estimate of a market participants weighted-average cost of capital. These models are both based on the Companys best estimate of future revenues and operating costs and are reconciled to the Companys consolidated market capitalization, with consideration of the amount a potential acquirer would be required to pay, in the form of a control premium, in order to gain sufficient ownership to set policies, direct operations and control management decisions.
As noted above, during the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company identified certain indicators of impairment occurring following its annual goodwill evaluation that required an interim goodwill impairment evaluation, which was performed as of November 30, 2017. Those indicators were primarily a further decline in the Companys market capitalization and fair value of the Companys long-term debt during November 2017. The Company performed an estimated calculation of fair value in step one of the impairment test at November 30, 2017, which indicated that the carrying value of the hospital operations reporting unit exceeded its fair value. As a result of this evaluation and the early adoption of ASU 2017-04, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1.419 billion to goodwill during the three months ended December 31, 2017.
The reduction in the Companys fair value and the resulting goodwill impairment charge recorded during 2017 reduced the carrying value of the Companys hospital operations reporting unit to an amount equal to its estimated fair value. This increases the risk that future declines in fair value could result in goodwill impairment. The determination of fair value in the Companys goodwill impairment analysis is based on an estimate of fair value for each reporting unit utilizing known and estimated inputs at the evaluation date. Some of those inputs include, but are not limited to, the most recent price of the Companys common stock or fair value of long-term debt, estimates of future revenue and expense growth, estimated market multiples, expected capital expenditures, income tax rates, and costs of invested capital. Future estimates of fair value could be adversely affected if the actual outcome of one or more of
17
COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
these assumptions changes materially in the future, including further decline in the Companys stock price or fair value of long-term debt, lower than expected hospital volumes, higher market interest rates or increased operating costs. Such changes impacting the calculation of fair value could result in a material impairment charge in the future.
The determination of fair value of the Companys hospital operations reporting unit as part of its goodwill impairment measurement represents a Level 3 fair value measurement in the fair value hierarchy due to its use of internal projections and unobservable measurement inputs.
These impairment charges do not have an impact on the calculation of the Companys financial covenants under the Companys Credit Facility.
Intangible Assets
No intangible assets other than goodwill were acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The gross carrying amount of the Companys other intangible assets subject to amortization was $8 million and $18 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and the net carrying amount was less than $1 million and $10 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The carrying amount of the Companys other intangible assets not subject to amortization was $72 million and $79 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Other intangible assets are included in other assets, net on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets. Substantially all of the Companys intangible assets are contract-based intangible assets related to operating licenses, management contracts, tradenames, or non-compete agreements entered into in connection with prior acquisitions.
The weighted-average remaining amortization period for the intangible assets subject to amortization is approximately two years. There are no expected residual values related to these intangible assets. Amortization expense on these intangible assets was $1 million for both of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and $2 million and $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization expense on intangible assets is estimated to be less than $1 million for the remainder of 2018 and in 2019 through 2021.
The gross carrying amount of capitalized software for internal use was approximately $1.2 billion at both September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and the net carrying amount was approximately $350 million and $416 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The estimated amortization period for capitalized internal-use software is generally three years, except for capitalized costs related to significant system conversions, which is generally eight to ten years. There is no expected residual value for capitalized internal-use software. At September 30, 2018, there was approximately $40 million of capitalized costs for internal-use software that is currently in the development stage and will begin amortization once the software project is complete and ready for its intended use. Amortization expense on capitalized internal-use software was $35 million and $46 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $105 million and $141 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization expense on capitalized internal-use software is estimated to be $32 million for the remainder of 2018, $113 million in 2019, $78 million in 2020, $58 million in 2021, $35 million in 2022, $21 million in 2023 and $13 million thereafter.

The Company generated a loss from continuing operations attributable to Community Health Systems, Inc. common stockholders for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, so the effect of dilutive securities is not considered because their effect would be antidilutive. If the Company had generated income from continuing operations, the effect of restricted stock awards on the diluted shares calculation would have been an increase of 4,001 shares and 148,768 shares during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and 41,705 shares and 147,618 shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

9. STOCKHOLDERS DEFICIT
Authorized capital shares of the Company include 400,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 300,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Each of the aforementioned classes of capital stock has a par value of $0.01 per share. Shares of preferred stock, none of which were outstanding as of September 30, 2018, may be issued in one or more series having such rights, preferences and other provisions as determined by the Board of Directors without approval by the holders of common stock.
On November 6, 2015, the Company adopted an open market repurchase program for up to 10,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock, not to exceed $300 million in repurchases. The repurchase program will expire on the earlier of November 5, 2018, when the maximum number of shares has been repurchased, or when the maximum dollar amount has been expended. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company repurchased and retired 532,188 shares at a weighted-average price of $27.31 per share, which is the cumulative number of shares repurchased and retired under this program. No shares were repurchased under this program during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017. In addition, no shares were repurchased under this program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The Company is a holding company which operates through its subsidiaries. The Companys Credit Facility and the indentures governing each series of our outstanding notes contain various covenants under which the assets of the subsidiaries of the Company are subject to certain restrictions relating to, among other matters, dividends and distributions, as referenced in the paragraph below.
With the exception of a special cash dividend of $0.25 per share paid by the Company in December 2012, historically, the Company has not paid any cash dividends. Subject to certain exceptions, the Companys Credit Facility limits the ability of the Companys subsidiaries to pay dividends and make distributions to the Company, and limits the Companys ability to pay dividends and/or repurchase stock, to an amount not to exceed $200 million in the aggregate plus an additional $25 million in any particular year plus the aggregate amount of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, subject to certain restrictions. The indentures governing each series of our outstanding notes also restrict the Companys subsidiaries from, among other matters, paying dividends and making distributions to the Company, which thereby limits the Companys ability to pay dividends and/or repurchase stock. As of September 30, 2018, under the most restrictive test in these agreements (and subject to certain exceptions), the Company has approximately $200 million available with which to pay permitted dividends and/or repurchase shares of stock or make other restricted payments.

Credit Facility
The Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, CHS/Community Health Systems, Inc. (CHS), has senior secured financing under a credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions led by Credit Suisse, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the Credit Facility), which at December 31, 2017 included (i) a revolving credit facility with commitments through January 27, 2019 of approximately $929 million, of which a $739 million portion represented extended commitments maturing January 27, 2021 (the Revolving Facility), (ii) a Term G facility due 2019 (the Term G Facility), and (iii) a Term H facility due 2021 (the Term H Facility). The Revolving Facility includes a subfacility for letters of credit.
The loans under the Credit Facility bear interest on the outstanding unpaid principal amount at a rate equal to an applicable percentage plus, at CHS option, either (a) an Alternate Base Rate (as defined) determined by reference to the greater of (1) the Prime Rate (as defined) announced by Credit Suisse or (2) the NYFRB Rate (as defined) plus 0.50% or (3) the adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) on such day for a three-month interest period commencing on the second business day after such day plus 1% or (b) LIBOR. In addition, the margin in respect of the Revolving Facility will be subject to adjustment determined by reference to a leverage-based pricing grid. Based on our current leverage, loans in respect of the Revolving Facility currently accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.75%, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, and Alternate Base Rate plus 1.75%, in the case of Alternate Base Rate borrowings. Prior to the Credit Facility amendment discussed below, the Term G Loan and Term H Loan accrued interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.75% and 3.00%, respectively, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, and Alternate Base Rate plus 1.75% and 2.00%, respectively, in the case of Alternate Base Rate borrowings. The Term G Loan and the Term H Loan are subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor and a 2.00% Alternate Base Rate floor.
Under the Term H Facility, CHS is required to make amortization payments in aggregate amounts equal to 1% of the original principal amount of the Term H Facility each year. After December 31, 2016, no additional amortization payments were required to be made under the Term G Facility.

COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
The term loan facility must be prepaid in an amount equal to (1) 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales and dispositions by the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and reinvestment rights (as further described below), (2) 100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of certain debt obligations or receivables-based financing by the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, and (3) 75%, subject to reduction to a lower percentage based on the Companys first lien net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility generally as the ratio of first lien net debt on the date of determination to the Companys consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the four quarters most recently ended prior to such date), of excess cash flow (as defined) for any year, subject to certain exceptions. Voluntary prepayments and commitment reductions are permitted in whole or in part, without any premium or penalty, subject to minimum prepayment or reduction requirements.
The borrower under the Credit Facility is CHS. All of the obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of its existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries. All obligations under the Credit Facility and the related guarantees are secured by a perfected first priority lien or security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company, CHS and each subsidiary guarantor, including equity interests held by the Company, CHS or any subsidiary guarantor, but excluding, among others, the equity interests of non-significant subsidiaries, syndication subsidiaries, securitization subsidiaries and joint venture subsidiaries, and subject to the ABL Facility as described in Note 15. Such assets constitute substantially the same assets, subject to certain exceptions, that secure (i) on a first lien basis CHS obligations under the 2021 Senior Secured Notes and the 61⁄4% Senior Secured Notes and the 85⁄8% Senior Secured Notes (in each case, as defined below) and (ii) on a junior-priority basis the 2023 Junior-Priority Notes (as defined below) and the 2024 Junior-Priority Notes (in each case, as defined below).
CHS has agreed to pay letter of credit fees equal to the applicable percentage then in effect with respect to LIBOR borrowings under the Revolving Facility times the maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under all letters of credit outstanding under the subfacility for letters of credit. The issuer of any letter of credit issued under the subfacility for letters of credit will also receive a customary fronting fee and other customary processing charges. CHS is obligated to pay commitment fees of 0.50% per annum (subject to adjustment based upon the Companys leverage ratio) on the unused portion of the Revolving Facility.
The Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, subject to limitations and exceptions, and customary covenants restricting the Companys and its subsidiaries ability, subject to certain exceptions, to, among other things (1) declare dividends, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock, (2) prepay, redeem or repurchase other debt, (3) incur liens or grant negative pledges, (4) make loans and investments and enter into acquisitions and joint ventures, (5) incur additional indebtedness or provide certain guarantees, (6) make capital expenditures, (7) engage in mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, (8) conduct transactions with affiliates, (9) alter the nature of the Companys businesses, (10) grant certain guarantees with respect to physician practices, (11) engage in sale and leaseback transactions or (12) change the Companys fiscal year. The Company is also required to comply with specified financial covenants (consisting of a first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA leverage ratio) and various affirmative covenants. Under the Credit Facility, the first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio is calculated as the ratio of total first lien debt, less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, to consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Facility. The calculation of consolidated EBITDA as defined in the Credit Facility is a trailing 12-month calculation that begins with net income attributable to the Company, with certain pro forma adjustments to consider the impact of material acquisitions or divestitures, and adjustments for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, stock compensation expense, restructuring costs, and the financial impact of other non-cash or non-recurring items recorded during any such 12-month period. For the 12-month period ended September 30, 2018, the first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio financial covenant under the Credit Facility limited the ratio of first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined, to less than or equal to 5.0 to 1.0. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2018, with a first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of approximately 4.6 to 1.0.
Events of default under the Credit Facility include, but are not limited to, (1) CHS failure to pay principal, interest, fees or other amounts under the credit agreement when due (taking into account any applicable grace period), (2) any representation or warranty proving to have been materially incorrect when made, (3) covenant defaults subject, with respect to certain covenants, to an available cure, (4) bankruptcy and insolvency events, (5) a cross default to certain other debt, (6) certain undischarged judgments (not paid within an applicable grace period), (7) a change of control (as defined), (8) certain ERISA-related defaults and (9) the invalidity or impairment of specified security interests, guarantees or subordination provisions in favor of the administrative agent or lenders under the Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2018, the availability for additional borrowings under the Credit Facility, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the Credit Facility, was approximately $425 million pursuant to the Revolving Facility, of which $86 million is in the form of outstanding letters of credit. CHS has the ability to amend the Credit Facility to provide for one or more tranches of term loans or increases in the Revolving Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500 million. As of September 30, 2018, the weighted-average interest rate under the Credit Facility, excluding swaps, was 6.5%.
2018 Financing Activity
On February 26, 2018, the Credit Facility was amended, with requisite revolving lender approval, to remove the consolidated EBITDA to interest expense ratio financial covenant, to replace the senior secured net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio financial covenant with a first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio financial covenant, and to reduce the extended revolving credit commitments to $650 million (for a total of $840 million in revolving credit commitments when combined with the non-extended portion of the revolving credit facility). The new financial covenant provides for a maximum first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of 5.25 to 1.0, reducing to 5.0 to 1.0 on July 1, 2018, 4.75 to 1.0 on January 1, 2019, 4.5 to 1.0 on January 1, 2020 and 4.25 to 1.0 on July 1, 2020. In addition, the Company agreed pursuant to the amendment to modify its ability to retain asset sale proceeds, and instead to apply them to prepayments of term loans based on pro forma first lien leverage. To the extent the pro forma ratio of first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA is greater than or equal to 4.5 to 1.0, 100% of net cash proceeds of asset sales will be applied to prepay term loans; to the extent the pro forma first lien leverage ratio is less than 4.5 to 1.0 but greater than or equal to 4.0 to 1.0, 50% of such proceeds will be applied to prepay term loans; and to the extent the first lien leverage ratio is less than 4.0 to 1.0, there will be no requirement to prepay term loans with such proceeds. These ratios will be determined on a pro forma basis giving appropriate effect to the relevant asset sales and corresponding prepayments of term loans.
On March 23, 2018, the Company and CHS entered into the Fourth Amendment and Restatement Agreement to the Credit Facility (the Agreement). In addition to including the changes described in the paragraph above, the Company further modified its ability to retain asset sale proceeds, and instead to apply them to prepayments of term loans based on pro forma first lien leverage. To the extent the pro forma ratio of first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA is greater than or equal to 4.25 to 1.0, 100% of net cash proceeds of asset sales will be applied to prepay term loans; to the extent the pro forma first lien leverage ratio is less than 4.25 to 1.0 but greater than or equal to 3.75 to 1.0, 50% of such proceeds will be applied to prepay term loans; and to the extent the first lien leverage ratio is less than 3.75 to 1.0, there will be no requirement to prepay term loans with such proceeds. The Agreement also amended the Credit Facility to permit CHS to incur debt under either an asset-based loan (ABL) facility in an amount up to $1.0 billion or maintain its Asset-Backed Securitization program. The Revolving Facility would be reduced to $425 million upon the effectiveness of the contemplated ABL facility. The Agreement also reduced the availability for incremental tranches of term loans or increases in the Revolving Facility to $500 million and removed the secured net leverage incurrence test with respect to junior secured debt. Term G Loans will accrue interest at a rate per annum initially equal to LIBOR plus 3.00%, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, and Alternate Base Rate plus 2.00%, in the case of Alternate Base Rate borrowing. Term H Loans will accrue interest at a rate per annum initially equal to LIBOR plus 3.25%, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, and Alternate Base Rate plus 2.25%, in the case of Alternate Base Rate borrowing.
On April 3, 2018, the Company and CHS entered into an asset-based loan (ABL) credit agreement (the ABL Credit Agreement) (as further described below), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders and other agents party thereto. Pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement, the lenders have extended to CHS a revolving asset-based loan facility (the ABL Facility) in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion, subject to borrowing base capacity. The ABL facility includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit of $50 million. CHS and all domestic subsidiaries of CHS that guarantee CHS other outstanding senior and senior secured indebtedness guarantee the obligations of CHS under the ABL Facility. In conjunction with the closing of the ABL Facility, the wholly-owned special-purpose entity that owned the Receivables pledged under the previous Receivables Facility became a subsidiary guarantor under the Credit Facility and CHS outstanding notes. Subject to certain exceptions, all obligations under the ABL Facility and the related guarantees are secured by a perfected first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Receivables, deposit, collection and other accounts and contract rights, books, records and other instruments related to the foregoing of the Company, CHS and the guarantors as well as a perfected junior-priority security interest in substantially all of the other assets of the Company, CHS and the guarantors, subject to customary exceptions and intercreditor arrangements. The revolving credit commitments under the Credit Facility were reduced to $425 million upon the effectiveness of the ABL Facility. In connection with entering into the ABL Credit Agreement and the ABL Facility, the Company repaid in full and terminated its Receivables Facility. The outstanding borrowings pursuant to the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 totaled $538 million on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable percentage, plus, at the Borrowers option, either (a) an Alternative base rate or (b) a LIBOR rate. From and after December 31, 2018, the applicable percentage under the ABL Facility will be determined based on excess availability as a percentage of the maximum commitment amount under the ABL facility at a rate per annum of 1.25%, 1.50% and 1.75% for loans based on the Alternative base rate and 2.25%, 2.50% and 2.75% for loans based on the LIBOR rate. From and after September 30, 2018, the applicable commitment fee rate under the ABL Facility is determined based on average utilization as a percentage of the maximum commitment amount under the ABL Facility at a rate per annum of either 0.50% or 0.625% times the unused portion of the ABL facility.
Principal amounts outstanding under the ABL Facility will be due and payable in full on April 3, 2023. The ABL Facility includes a 91-day springing maturity applicable if more than $250 million in the aggregate principal amount of the Borrowers 8% Senior Notes due 2019, Term G loans due 2019, 7.125% Senior Notes due 2020, Term H loans due 2021, 5.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2021, 6.875% Senior Notes due 2022 or 6.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2023 or refinancings thereof are scheduled to mature or similarly become due on a date prior to April 3, 2023.

Receivables Facility
Prior to the effectiveness of the ABL Facility described above, CHS, through certain of its subsidiaries, participated in an accounts receivable loan agreement (the Receivables Facility) with a group of lenders and banks, Credit Agricolé Corporate and Investment Bank, as a managing agent and as the administrative agent. Patient-related accounts receivable (the Receivables) for certain affiliated hospitals served as collateral for the outstanding borrowings under the Receivables Facility. The interest rate on the borrowings was based on the commercial paper rate plus an applicable interest rate spread. The Receivables Facility was repaid in full and terminated upon the effectiveness of the ABL Facility on April 3, 2018.
Loss (Gain) from Early Extinguishment of Debt
The financing and repayment transactions discussed above resulted in a loss from early extinguishment of debt of $27 million and $4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and an after-tax loss of $21 million and after-tax loss of $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Gain from early extinguishment of debt was $32 million and a loss from early extinguishment of debt of $35 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and an after-tax gain of $25 million and an after-tax loss of $22 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Other Debt
As of September 30, 2018, other debt consisted primarily of other obligations maturing in various installments through 2028.
To limit the effect of changes in interest rates on a portion of the Companys long-term borrowings, the Company is a party to six separate interest swap agreements in effect at September 30, 2018, with an aggregate notional amount for currently effective swaps of $1.5 billion. On each of these swaps, the Company receives a variable rate of interest based on the three-month LIBOR in exchange for the payment of a fixed rate of interest. See Note 11 for additional information regarding these swaps.
The Company paid interest of $151 million and $221 million on borrowings during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $637 million and $630 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The carrying value of the Companys long-term debt in the above table is presented net of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs. The estimated fair value is determined using the methodologies discussed below in accordance with accounting standards related to the determination of fair value based on the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as discussed in Note 12. The estimated fair value for financial instruments with a fair value that does not equal its carrying value is considered a Level 1 valuation. The Company utilizes the market approach and obtains indicative pricing from the administrative agent to the Credit Facility to determine fair values or through publicly available subscription services such as Bloomberg where relevant.
Cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments (less than three months).
Investments in equity securities. Estimated fair value is based on closing price as quoted in public markets.
Available-for-sale securities. Estimated fair value is based on closing price as quoted in public markets or other various valuation techniques.
Trading securities. Estimated fair value is based on closing price as quoted in public markets.
Contingent Value Right. Estimated fair value is based on the closing price as quoted on the public market where the CVR is traded.
Credit Facility. Estimated fair value is based on publicly available trading activity and supported with information from the Companys bankers regarding relevant pricing for trading activity among the Companys lending institutions.
8% Senior Notes due 2019. Estimated fair value is based on the closing market price for these notes.
71⁄8% Senior Notes due 2020. Estimated fair value is based on the closing market price for these notes.
51⁄8% Senior Secured Notes due 2021. Estimated fair value is based on the closing market price for these notes.

Junior-Priority Secured Notes due 2024. Estimated fair value is based on the closing market price for these notes.
8 5⁄8% Secured Notes due 2024. Estimated fair value is based on the closing market price for these notes.
ABL Facility and other debt. The carrying amount of the ABL Facility and all other debt (which, at December 31, 2017 includes the Receivables Facility) approximates fair value due to the nature of these obligations.
Interest rate swaps. The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is the amount at which they could be settled, based on estimates calculated by the Company using a discounted cash flow analysis based on observable market inputs and validated by comparison to estimates obtained from the counterparty. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments (CVAs) to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance or credit risk and the respective counterpartys nonperformance or credit risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its interest rate swap agreements for the effect of nonperformance or credit risk, the Company has considered the impact of any netting features included in the agreements.
The Company assesses the effectiveness of its hedge instruments on a quarterly basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company completed an assessment of the cash flow hedge instruments and determined the hedges to be highly effective. The Company has also determined that the ineffective portion of the hedges do not have a material effect on the Companys condensed consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows. The counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements expose the Company to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by such counterparties. However, at September 30, 2018, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The risk managed by using derivative instruments is interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate fluctuation risk associated with the term loans in the Credit Facility. Companies are required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position. The Company designates its interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
Assuming no change in interest rates in effect as of September 30, 2018, approximately $1 million of interest expense resulting from the spread between the fixed and floating rates defined in each interest rate swap agreement will be recognized during the next 12 months. If interest rate swaps do not remain highly effective as a cash flow hedge, the derivatives gains or losses resulting from the change in fair value reported through OCI will be reclassified into earnings.
The following tabular disclosure provides the amount of pre-tax gain (loss) recognized as a component of OCI during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

12. FAIR VALUE
Fair Value Hierarchy
Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the Company utilizes the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entitys own assumption about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: | Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
Level 2: | Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 includes values determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques reflecting the Companys own assumptions. |
In instances where the determination of the fair value hierarchy measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Companys assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment of factors specific to the asset or liability. Transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy are recognized by the Company on the date of the change in circumstances that requires such transfer. There were no transfers between levels during the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2018 or September 30, 2017.

Investments in Equity Securities, Available-for-sale Securities and Trading Securities
Investments in equity securities and trading securities classified as Level 1 are measured using quoted market prices. Level 2 available-for-sale securities primarily consisted of bonds and notes issued by the United States government and its agencies and domestic and foreign corporations. The estimated fair values of these securities are determined using various valuation techniques, including a multi-dimensional relational model that incorporates standard observable inputs and assumptions such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids/offers and other pertinent reference data.
Contingent Value Right (CVR)
The CVR represents the estimate of the fair value for the contingent consideration paid to HMA shareholders as part of the HMA merger. The CVR is listed on the Nasdaq and the valuation at September 30, 2018 is based on the quoted trading price for the CVR on the last day of the period. Changes in the estimated fair value of the CVR are recorded through the condensed consolidated statements of loss.

CVR-related Liability
The CVR-related legal liability (prior to being reclassified as a current liability on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheet as noted below) represented the Companys estimate of fair value of the liability associated with the legal matters assumed in the HMA merger, which at December 31, 2017 was included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. This liability did not include those matters previously accrued by HMA as a probable contingency, which were settled and paid during the year ended December 31, 2015. To develop the estimate of fair value, the Company engaged an independent third-party valuation firm to measure the liability. The valuation was made utilizing the Companys estimates of future outcomes for each legal case and simulating future outcomes based on the timing, probability and distribution of several scenarios using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Other inputs were then utilized for discounting the liability to the measurement date. The HMA legal matters underlying this fair value estimate were evaluated by management to determine the likelihood and impact of each of the potential outcomes. Using that information, as well as the potential correlation and variability associated with each case, a fair value was determined for the estimated future cash outflows to conclude or settle the HMA legal matters included in the analysis, excluding legal fees (which are expensed as incurred). Because of the unobservable nature of the majority of the inputs used to value the liability, the Company classified the fair value measurement as a Level 3 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of the CVR related legal liability were recorded in future periods through the condensed consolidated statements of loss.
At September 30, 2018, the Company recorded the CVR-related legal liability at the amount agreed to in the final global resolution and settlement of the HMA legal matters and reclassified the balance to current other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, as further discussed below in Note 14.
Fair Value of Interest Rate Swap Agreements
The valuation of the Companys interest rate swap agreements is determined using market valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each agreement. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the agreement, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including forward interest rate curves. The fair value of interest rate swap agreements are determined by netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on the expectation of future interest rates based on observable market forward interest rate curves and the notional amount being hedged.
The Company incorporates CVAs to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance or credit risk and the respective counterpartys nonperformance or credit risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its interest rate swap agreements for the effect of nonperformance or credit risk, the Company has considered the impact of any netting features included in the agreements. The CVA on the Companys interest rate swap agreements had an immaterial effect on the fair value of the related asset or liability at September 30, 2018. The CVA on the Companys interest rate swap agreements resulted in a decrease in the fair value of the related liability of $1 million and an after-tax adjustment of less than $1 million to OCI at December 31, 2017.
The majority of the inputs used to value the Companys interest rate swap agreements, including the forward interest rate curves and market perceptions of the Companys credit risk used in the CVAs, are observable inputs available to a market participant. As a result, the Company has determined that the interest rate swap valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company provides an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for certain members of its executive management. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for the benefit obligations and a January 1 measurement date for its net periodic costs for the SERP. Variances from actuarially assumed rates will result in increases or decreases in benefit obligations and net periodic cost in future periods. Benefits expense under the SERP was $2 million and $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $6 million and $10 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The accrued benefit liability for the SERP totaled $73 million and $83 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and is included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The weighted-average assumptions used in determining net periodic cost for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was a discount rate of 3.4% and annual salary increase of 2.0%. The Company had equity investment securities in a rabbi trust generally designated to pay benefits of the SERP in the amounts of $85 million and $99 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These amounts are included in other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
During 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, certain members of executive management of the Company that were participants in the SERP retired and met the requirements for payout of their SERP retirement benefit. The SERP payout provisions require payment to the participant in an actuarially determined lump sum amount nine months after the participant retires from the Company. Such amounts were paid out of the rabbi trust. As required by the pension accounting rules in U.S. GAAP, the Company recognized a non-cash settlement loss of $1 million and approximately $2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and will recognize a non-cash settlement loss of less than $1 million during the three months ending December 31, 2018, which represents a pro-rata portion of the accumulated unrecognized actuarial loss out of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
14. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is a party to various legal, regulatory and governmental proceedings incidental to its business. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters, including the matters described herein, will have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in pending legal, regulatory and governmental matters, some of which are beyond the Companys control, and the very large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Companys results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
With respect to all legal, regulatory and governmental proceedings, the Company considers the likelihood of a negative outcome. If the Company determines the likelihood of a negative outcome with respect to any such matter is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records an accrual for the estimated loss for the expected outcome of the matter. If the likelihood of a negative outcome with respect to material matters is reasonably possible and the Company is able to determine an estimate of the possible loss or a range of loss, whether in excess of a related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, the Company discloses the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. However, the Company is unable to estimate a possible loss or range of loss in some instances based on the significant uncertainties involved in, and/or the preliminary nature of, certain legal, regulatory and governmental matters.
In connection with the spin-off of Quorum Health Corporation (QHC), the Company agreed to indemnify QHC for certain liabilities relating to outcomes or events occurring prior to April 29, 2016, the closing date of the spin-off, including (i) certain claims and proceedings that were known to be outstanding at or prior to the consummation of the spin-off and involved multiple facilities and (ii) certain claims, proceedings and investigations by governmental authorities or private plaintiffs related to activities occurring at or related to QHCs healthcare facilities prior to the closing date of the spin-off, but only to the extent, in the case of clause (ii), that such claims are covered by insurance policies maintained by the Company, including professional liability and employer practices. In this regard, the Company continues to be responsible for HMA Legal Matters (as defined below) covered by the CVR agreement that relate to QHCs business, and any amounts payable by the Company in connection therewith will continue to reduce the amount payable by the Company in respect of the CVRs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is not required to indemnify QHC in respect of any claims or proceedings arising out of or related to the business operations of Quorum Health Resources, LLC at any time or QHCs compliance with the corporate integrity agreement. Subsequent to the spin-off of QHC, the Office of the Inspector General provided the Company with written assurance that it would look solely at QHC for compliance for its facilities under the Companys
37

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
Corporate Integrity Agreement; however, the Office of the Inspector General declined to enter into a separate corporate integrity agreement with QHC. In addition, on August 4, 2017, the Company initiated an arbitration against QHC for unpaid amounts due from QHC related to a Computer Data Processing Transition Services Agreement and a Shared Services Transition Services Agreement (TSAs) entered into between QHC and the Company in connection with the spin-off. QHC filed a counterclaim, claiming breach of contract and tortious interference, among others. The Company believes QHCs counterclaims are without merit. The arbitration began on June 18, 2018 and continued through June 27, 2018. It reconvened on October 1, 2018 and concluded on October 8, 2018. On June 25, 2018, the arbitration panel issued a partial order that the TSAs were enforceable contracts that would continue by their terms until their expiration in April 2021. QHC had attempted to challenge the legal enforceability of both of those agreements. The Company expects a ruling on all remaining issues by January 15, 2019.
HMA Legal Matters and Related CVR Agreement
The CVR agreement entitles the holder to receive a one-time cash payment of up to $1.00 per CVR, subject to downward adjustment based on the final resolution of certain litigation, investigations (whether formal or informal, including subpoenas), or other actions or proceedings related to HMA or its affiliates existing on or prior to July 29, 2013 (the date of the Companys merger agreement with HMA) as more specifically provided in the CVR agreement (all such matters are referred to as the HMA Legal Matters), which include, but are not limited to, investigation and litigation matters as previously disclosed by HMA in public filings with the SEC and/or as described in more detail below. The adjustment reducing the ultimate amount paid to holders of the CVR is determined based on the amount of losses incurred by the Company in connection with the HMA Legal Matters as more specifically provided in the CVR agreement, which generally includes the amount paid for damages, costs, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and expenses), and all fines, penalties, settlement amounts, indemnification obligations and other liabilities (all such losses are referred to as HMA Losses). If the aggregate amount of HMA Losses exceeds a deductible of $18 million, then the amount payable in respect of each CVR shall be reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing: (a) the product of (i) all losses in excess of the deductible and (ii) 90%; by (b) the number of CVRs outstanding on the date on which final resolution of the existing litigation occurs. There are 264,544,053 CVRs outstanding as of the date hereof. If total HMA Losses (including HMA Losses that have occurred to date as noted in the table below) exceed approximately $312 million, then the holders of the CVRs will not be entitled to any payment in respect of the CVRs.
The CVRs do not have a finite payment date. Any payments the Company makes under the CVR agreement will be payable within 60 days after the final resolution of the HMA Legal Matters. The CVRs are unsecured obligations of CHS and all payments under the CVRs will be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of the Companys senior obligations (as defined in the CVR agreement), which include outstanding indebtedness of the Company (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the CVR agreement) and the HMA Losses. The CVR agreement permits the Company to acquire all or some of the CVRs, whether in open market transactions, private transactions or otherwise. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had acquired no CVRs.
Underlying the CVR agreement are a number of claims included in the HMA Legal Matters asserted against HMA. On September 25, 2018, the Company announced a global resolution and settlement agreements ending the U.S. Department of Justice investigation and settling qui tam lawsuits that were initiated and pending, and known to the Company, before the Companys acquisition of HMA. The Company previously recorded an estimated liability at fair value of the remaining underlying claims that are covered by the CVR agreement in connection with those claims as part of the acquired assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition pursuant to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 Business Combinations. As further discussed below, this liability has been adjusted as of September 30, 2018, to take into account the settlement amount contemplated by the global settlement agreements, including interest, of $266 million and has been reclassified as a current liability in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2018. This settlement amount will be paid by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2018. In addition, although future legal fees (which are expensed as incurred) and any attorney fees claimed for reimbursement by the relators associated with the HMA Legal Matters (including the global settlement noted above) have not been accrued or included in the table below, such legal fees and attorney fees are to be taken into account in determining the total amount of reductions applied to the amounts owed to CVR holders. The Company is currently in the process of reviewing the final payment amount required for the CVR as defined in the CVR agreement. However, based on the total costs incurred and settlements paid (including with respect to the global settlement) as summarized below, the Company anticipates that no payment will be due to the CVR holders.

Medicare/Medicaid Billing Lawsuits
Beginning during the week of December 16, 2013, eleven qui tam lawsuits filed by private individuals against HMA were unsealed in various United States district courts. The United States has elected to intervene in all or part of eight of these matters; namely U.S. ex rel. Craig Brummer v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Middle District Georgia) (Brummer); U.S. ex rel. Ralph D. Williams v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Middle District Georgia) (Williams); U.S. ex rel. Scott H. Plantz, M.D. et al. v. Health Management Associates, Inc., et al. (Northern District Illinois) (Plantz); U.S. ex rel. Thomas L. Mason, M.D. et al. v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Western District North Carolina) (Mason); U.S. ex rel. Jacqueline Meyer, et al. v. Health Management Associates, Inc., Gary Newsome et al. (Jacqueline Meyer) (District of South Carolina); U.S. ex rel. George Miller, et al. v. Health Management Associates, Inc. (Eastern District of Pennsylvania) (Miller); U.S. ex rel. Bradley Nurkin v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Middle District of Florida) (Nurkin); and U.S. ex rel. Paul Meyer v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Southern District Florida) (Paul Meyer). The United States has elected to intervene with respect to allegations in these cases that certain HMA hospitals inappropriately admitted patients and then submitted reimbursement claims for treating those individuals to federal healthcare programs in violation of the False Claims Act or that certain HMA hospitals had inappropriate financial relationships with physicians which violated the Stark law, the Anti-Kickback Statute, and the False Claims Act. Certain of these complaints also allege the same actions violated various state laws which prohibit false claims. The United States has declined to intervene in three of the eleven matters, namely U.S. ex rel. Anita France, et al. v. Health Management Associates, Inc. (Middle District Florida) (France) which involved allegations of wrongful billing and was settled; U.S. ex rel. Sandra Simmons v. Health Management Associates, Inc. et al. (Eastern District Oklahoma) (Simmons) which alleges unnecessary surgery by an employed physician and which was settled as to all allegations except alleged wrongful termination; and U.S. ex rel. David Napoliello, M.D. v. Health Management Associates, Inc. (Middle District Florida) (Napoliello) which alleges inappropriate admissions. On September 25, 2018, the Company announced a global resolution and settlement agreements ending the U.S. Department of Justice investigation and settling these qui tam lawsuits. The global settlement includes a total payment, including interest, of $266 million, which will be paid by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, under the terms of the global settlement, the Companys existing corporate integrity agreement (CIA) has been amended and extended. The extension began immediately and effectively adds two years to the existing CIA, with the amended CIA now running through 2021.
Other Probable Contingencies
Becker v. Community Health Systems, Inc. d/b/a Community Health Systems Professional Services Corporation d/b/a Community Health Systems d/b/a Community Health Systems PSC, Inc. d/b/a Rockwood Clinic P.S. and Rockwood Clinic, P.S. (Superior Court, Spokane, Washington). This suit was filed on February 29, 2012, by a former chief financial officer at Rockwood Clinic in Spokane, Washington. Becker claims he was wrongfully terminated for allegedly refusing to certify a budget for Rockwood Clinic in 2012. On February 29, 2012, he also filed an administrative complaint with the Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration alleging that he is a whistleblower under Sarbanes-Oxley, which was dismissed by the agency and was appealed to an administrative law judge for a hearing that occurred on January 19-26, 2016. In a decision dated November 9, 2016, the law judge awarded Becker approximately $1.9 million for front pay, back pay and emotional damages with attorney fees to be later determined.

The Company has appealed the award to the Administrative Review Board and is awaiting its decision. At a hearing on July 27, 2012, the trial court dismissed Community Health Systems, Inc. from the state case and subsequently certified the state case for an interlocutory appeal of the denial to dismiss his employer and the management company. The appellate court accepted the interlocutory appeal, and it was argued on April 30, 2014. On August 14, 2014, the court denied the Companys appeal. On October 20, 2014, the Company filed a petition to review the denial with the Washington Supreme Court. The appeal was accepted and oral argument was heard on June 9, 2015. On September 15, 2015, the court denied the Companys appeal and remanded to the trial court; a previous trial setting of September 12, 2016 has been vacated and not reset. The Company continues to vigorously defend these actions.
Summary of Recorded Amounts
The table below presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending liability balances (in millions) during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, with respect to the Companys determination of the final settlement value for the liability recorded in connection with HMA Legal Matters that were not previously accrued by HMA, and the remaining contingencies of the Company in respect of which an accrual has been recorded. In addition, future legal fees (which are expensed as incurred) and costs related to possible indemnification and criminal investigation matters associated with the HMA Legal Matters have not been accrued or included in the table below. Furthermore, although not accrued, such costs, if incurred, will be taken into account in determining the total amount of reductions applied to the amounts owed to CVR holders.

With respect to the Other Probable Contingencies referenced in the chart above, in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes a liability for litigation, regulatory and governmental matters for which, based on information currently available, the Company believes that a negative outcome is known or is probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. For all such matters (whether or not discussed in this contingencies footnote), such amounts have been recorded in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and are included in the table above in the Other Probable Contingencies column. Due to the uncertainties and difficulty in predicting the ultimate resolution of these contingencies, the actual amount could differ from the estimated amount reflected as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet.
In the aggregate, attorneys fees and other costs incurred but not included in the table above related to probable contingencies, and CVR-related contingencies accounted for at fair value, totaled less than $1 million and $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $2 million for both of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and are included in other operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of loss.
Matters for which an Outcome Cannot be Assessed
For the following legal matter, due to the uncertainties surrounding the ultimate outcome of the case, the Company cannot at this time assess what the outcome may be and is further unable to determine any estimate of loss or range of loss.
Class Action Shareholder Federal Securities Cases. Three purported class action cases have been filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee; namely, Norfolk County Retirement System v. Community Health Systems, Inc., et al., filed May 9, 2011; De Zheng v. Community Health Systems, Inc., et al., filed May 12, 2011; and Minneapolis Firefighters Relief Association v. Community Health Systems, Inc., et al., filed June 21, 2011. All three seek class certification on behalf of purchasers of the Companys common stock between July 27, 2006 and April 11, 2011 and allege that misleading statements resulted in artificially inflated prices for the Companys common stock. In December 2011, the cases were consolidated for pretrial purposes and NYC Funds and its counsel were selected as lead plaintiffs/lead plaintiffs counsel. In lieu of ruling on the Companys motion to dismiss, the court permitted the plaintiffs to file a first amended consolidated class action complaint, which was filed on October 5, 2015. The Companys motion to dismiss was filed on November 4, 2015 and oral argument was held on April 11, 2016. The Companys motion
40
COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
to dismiss was granted on June 16, 2016 and on June 27, 2016, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. The matter was heard on May 3, 2017. On December 13, 2017, the Sixth Circuit reversed the trial courts dismissal of the case and remanded it to the District Court. The Company filed a renewed partial motion to dismiss on February 9, 2018, which was denied by the District Court on September 24, 2018. The Company also filed a petition for a writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court on April 18, 2018 seeking review of the Sixth Circuits decision. The United States Supreme Court denied the petition for a writ of certiorari on October 1, 2018. Plaintiffs motion for class certification is pending. The Company believes this consolidated matter is without merit and will vigorously defend this case.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October, 1, 2018, one or more subsidiaries of the Company sold AllianceHealth Deaconess (238 licensed beds) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and its associated assets to a subsidiary of INTEGRIS Health for approximately $7 million in cash pursuant to the terms of a definitive agreement which had been entered into on June 26, 2018.
On October 11, 2018, one or more subsidiaries of the Company signed a definitive agreement for the sale of Mary Black Health System Spartanburg (207 licensed beds) in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and Mary Black Health System Gaffney (125 licensed beds) in Gaffney, South Carolina and their associated assets to Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
On October 25, 2018, one or more subsidiaries of the Company announced the planned closure on December 28, 2018 of Physicians Regional Medical Center (401 licensed beds) in Knoxville, Tennessee and Lakeway Regional Hospital (135 licensed beds) in Morristown, Tennessee.
16. SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Senior Notes due 2019, 2020 and 2022, which are senior unsecured obligations of CHS, the 5 1⁄8% Senior Secured Notes due 2021, and the 6 1⁄4% Senior Secured Notes due 2023 (collectively, the Notes) are registered securities and are guaranteed on a senior basis by the Company and by certain of its existing and subsequently acquired or organized 100% owned domestic subsidiaries. In addition, equity interests in non-guarantors have been pledged as collateral except for three hospitals owned jointly with non-profit, health organizations. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis, with exceptions considered customary for such guarantees, limited to the release of the guarantee when a subsidiary guarantors capital stock is sold, or a sale of all of the subsidiary guarantors assets used in operations. The following condensed consolidating financial statements present Community Health Systems, Inc. (as parent guarantor), CHS (as the issuer), the subsidiary guarantors, the subsidiary non-guarantors and eliminations. These condensed consolidating financial statements have been prepared and presented in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Rule 3-10 Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered.
The accounting policies used in the preparation of this financial information are consistent with those elsewhere in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company, except as noted below:
| Intercompany receivables and payables are presented gross in the supplemental condensed consolidating balance sheets. |
| Cash flows from intercompany transactions are presented in cash flows from financing activities, as changes in intercompany balances with affiliates, net. |
| Income tax expense is allocated from the parent guarantor to the income producing operations (other guarantors and non-guarantors) and the issuer through stockholders deficit. As this approach represents an allocation, the income tax expense allocation is considered non-cash for statement of cash flow purposes. |
| Interest expense, net has been presented to reflect net interest expense and interest income from outstanding long-term debt and intercompany balances. |

COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
The Companys intercompany activity consists primarily of daily cash transfers for purposes of cash management, the allocation of certain expenses and expenditures paid for by the Parent on behalf of its subsidiaries, and the push down of investment in its subsidiaries. This activity also includes the intercompany transactions between consolidated entities as part of the ABL Facility and Receivables Facility that are further discussed in Note 10. The Companys subsidiaries generally do not purchase services from one another; thus, the intercompany transactions do not represent revenue generating transactions. All intercompany transactions eliminate in consolidation.
From time to time, subsidiaries of the Company sell and/or repurchase noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries, which may change subsidiaries between guarantors and non-guarantors. Amounts for prior periods have been revised to reflect the status of guarantors and non-guarantors as of September 30, 2018.
