NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Reporting Entity

On November 17, 2006, HCA Inc. was acquired by a private investor group, including affiliates of, or funds sponsored by Bain Capital Partners, LLC, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., BAML Capital Partners and HCA founder, Dr. Thomas F. Frist Jr. (collectively, the “Investors”) and by members of management and certain other investors. The transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization in our financial statements, with no adjustments to the historical basis of our assets and liabilities.

On November 22, 2010, HCA Inc. reorganized by creating a new holding company structure (the “Corporate Reorganization”). HCA Holdings, Inc. became the new parent company, and HCA Inc. became HCA Holdings, Inc.’s wholly-owned direct subsidiary. As part of the Corporate Reorganization, HCA Inc.’s outstanding shares of common stock were automatically converted, on a share for share basis, into identical shares of HCA Holdings, Inc.’s common stock. As a result of the Corporate Reorganization, HCA Holdings, Inc. was deemed the successor registrant to HCA Inc. under the Exchange Act.

During March 2011, we completed the initial public offering of 87,719,300 shares of our common stock at a price of $30.00 per share (before deducting underwriter discounts, commissions and other related offering expenses). Certain of our stockholders also sold 57,410,700 shares of our common stock in this offering. We did not receive any proceeds from the shares sold by the selling stockholders. Our common stock is now traded on the New York Stock Exchange (symbol “HCA”).

The Investors provided management and advisory services to the Company pursuant to a management agreement among HCA Inc. and the Investors executed in connection with the Investors’ acquisition of HCA Inc. in November 2006. The management agreement was terminated pursuant to its terms upon completion of the initial public offering of our common stock, and the Company paid the Investors a final fee of $181 million.

HCA Holdings, Inc. is a holding company whose affiliates own and operate hospitals and related health care entities. The term “affiliates” includes direct and indirect subsidiaries of HCA Holdings, Inc. and partnerships and joint ventures in which such subsidiaries are partners. At March 31, 2012, these affiliates owned and operated 164 hospitals, 109 freestanding surgery centers and provided extensive outpatient and ancillary services. HCA Holdings, Inc.’s facilities are located in 20 states and England. The terms “Company,” “HCA,” “we,” “our” or “us,” as used herein and unless otherwise stated or indicated by context, refer to HCA Inc. and its affiliates prior to the Corporate Reorganization and to HCA Holdings, Inc. and its affiliates after the Corporate Reorganization. The terms “facilities” or “hospitals” refer to entities owned and operated by affiliates of HCA and the term “employees” refers to employees of affiliates of HCA.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature.

The majority of our expenses are “cost of revenue” items. Costs that could be classified as general and administrative would include our corporate office costs, which were $53 million and $54 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 are not

necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In 2011, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-07, Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities (“ASU 2011-07”). ASU 2011-07 requires health care entities to change the presentation of the statement of operations by reclassifying the provision for doubtful accounts from an operating expense to a deduction from patient service revenues. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 have been reclassified in accordance with ASU 2011-07.

Revenues are recorded during the period the health care services are provided, based upon the estimated amounts due from the patients and third-party payers. Third-party payers include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare, Medicaid and other programs), managed care health plans, commercial insurance companies and employers. Estimates of contractual allowances under managed care health plans are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. Revenues related to uninsured patients and copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage may have discounts applied (uninsured discounts and contractual discounts). We also record a provision for doubtful accounts related to uninsured accounts to record the net self pay accounts receivable at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. Our revenues from our third-party payers, the uninsured and other revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are summarized in the following tables (dollars in millions):

2012 Ratio 2011 Ratio

Medicare

Revenues

$ 8,405 100.0 % $ 7,406 100.0 %

The increase in revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011 includes two adjustments (Rural Floor Provision Settlement and Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”) ratios) related to Medicare revenues for prior periods. The net effect of the Medicare adjustments was an increase of $188 million to revenues. The Rural Floor Provision Settlement was signed on April 5, 2012. As a result of the agreement, we expect to receive additional Medicare payments of approximately $271 million by June 30, 2012. This amount was recorded as an increase to Medicare revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. During March 2012, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) issued new SSI ratios used for calculating Medicare Disproportionate Share Hospital (“DSH”) reimbursement for federal fiscal years ending September 30,

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

NOTE 1 — INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Basis of Presentation (continued)

2006 through September 30, 2009. As a result, we recalculated our DSH reimbursement for all applicable periods. The cumulative impact of this retroactive adjustment was a reduction in Medicare revenues of approximately $83 million. This adjustment was recorded as a reduction to Medicare revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2012. These adjustments (and related expenses) added $170 million to income before income taxes, or $0.22 per diluted share.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 — INCOME TAXES

At March 31, 2012, we were contesting certain claimed deficiencies and adjustments proposed by the IRS Examination Division in connection with its audit of HCA Inc.’s 2005 and 2006 federal income tax returns. The disputed items include the timing of recognition of certain patient service revenues, the deductibility of certain debt retirement costs and our method for calculating the tax allowance for doubtful accounts. The IRS Examination Division began an audit of HCA Inc.’s 2007, 2008 and 2009 federal income tax returns in 2010.

Our liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $513 million, including accrued interest of $60 million, as of March 31, 2012 ($494 million and $62 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2011). Unrecognized tax benefits of $169 million ($173 million as of December 31, 2011) would affect the effective rate, if recognized. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits does not reflect deferred tax assets of $44 million ($45 million as of December 31, 2011) related to deductible interest and state income taxes or a refundable deposit of $19 million ($19 million as of December 31, 2011), which is recorded in noncurrent assets. The provision for income taxes reflects $3 million and $24 million ($2 million and $15 million, net of tax) in reductions in interest expense related to taxing authority examinations for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Depending on the resolution of the IRS disputes, the completion of examinations by federal, state or international taxing authorities, or the expiration of statutes of limitation for specific taxing jurisdictions, we believe it is reasonably possible our liability for unrecognized tax benefits may significantly increase or decline within the next 12 months. However, we are currently unable to estimate the range of any possible change.

NOTE 3 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted share units, computed using the treasury stock method.

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENTS OF INSURANCE SUBSIDIARIES (continued)

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the investments of our insurance subsidiaries were classified as “available-for-sale.” Changes in temporary unrealized gains and losses are recorded as adjustments to other comprehensive income. At both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $19 million of our investments were subject to restrictions included in insurance bond collateralization and assumed reinsurance contracts.

Scheduled maturities of investments in debt securities at March 31, 2012 were as follows (dollars in millions):

Amortized
Cost
Fair
Value

Due in one year or less

$ 125 $ 126

$ 586 $ 602

The average expected maturity of the investments in debt securities at March 31, 2012 was 4.2 years, compared to the average scheduled maturity of 9.4 years. Expected and scheduled maturities may differ because the issuers of certain securities have the right to call, prepay or otherwise redeem such obligations prior to the scheduled maturity date. The average expected maturities for our auction rate and asset-backed securities were derived from valuation models of expected cash flows and involved management’s judgment. At March 31, 2012, the average expected maturities for our auction rate and asset-backed securities were 4.8 years and 4.5 years, respectively, compared to average scheduled maturities of 25.1 years and 24.5 years, respectively.

During September 2011, we refinanced our $2.000 billion asset-based revolving credit facility maturing on November 16, 2012 to increase the total capacity to $2.500 billion and extend the maturity to 2016.

During August 2011, we issued $5.000 billion aggregate principal amount of notes, comprised of $3.000 billion of 6.50% senior secured first lien notes due 2020 and $2.000 billion of 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2022. We used the net proceeds from these debt issuances to redeem all of our outstanding $1.578 billion 9 5 / 8 %/10 3 / 8 % second lien toggle notes due 2016, at a redemption price of 106.783% of the principal amount, and all of our outstanding $3.200 billion 9 1 / 4 % second lien notes due 2016, at a redemption price of 106.513% of the principal amount. The pretax loss on retirement of debt related to these redemptions was $406 million.

During June 2011, we redeemed all $1.000 billion aggregate principal amount of our 9 1 / 8 % senior secured notes due 2014, at a redemption price of 104.563% of the principal amount, and $108 million aggregate principal amount of our 9 7 / 8 % senior secured notes due 2017, at a redemption price of 109.875% of the principal amount. The pretax loss on retirement of debt related to these redemptions was $75 million.

During May 2011, we completed amendments to our senior secured credit agreement and senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement, as well as extensions of certain of our term loans. The amendments extend $594 million of our term loan A facility with a final maturity of November 2012 to a final maturity of May 2016 and $2.373 billion of our term loan A and term loan B-1 facilities with final maturities of November 2012 and November 2013, respectively, to a final maturity of May 2018.

NOTE 6 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

We have entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties based on common notional principal amounts and maturity dates. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps effectively convert LIBOR indexed variable rate obligations to fixed interest rate obligations. The interest payments under these agreements are settled on a net basis. The net interest payments, based on the notional amounts in these agreements, generally match the timing of the related liabilities, for the interest rate swap agreements which have been designated as cash flow hedges. The notional amounts of the swap agreements represent amounts used to calculate the exchange of cash flows and are not our assets or liabilities. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions.

Cross Currency Swaps

The Company and certain subsidiaries have incurred obligations and entered into various intercompany transactions where such obligations are denominated in currencies, other than the functional currencies of the parties executing the trade. In order to mitigate the currency exposure risks and better match the cash flows of our obligations and intercompany transactions with cash flows from operations, we enter into various cross currency swaps. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions.

Our cross currency swap is not designated as a hedge, and changes in fair value are recognized in results of operations. The following table sets forth our cross currency swap agreement at March 31, 2012 (amounts in millions):

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

We have agreements with each of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision where we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of March 31, 2012, we have not been required to post any collateral related to these agreements. If we had breached these provisions at March 31, 2012, we would have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their aggregate, estimated termination value of $424 million.

NOTE 7 — ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements.

ASC 820 emphasizes fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value 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 significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Cash Traded Investments

Our cash traded investments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Certain types of cash traded instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency. Such instruments include auction rate securities (“ARS”) and limited partnership investments. The transaction price is initially used as the best estimate of fair value.

Our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries had investments in tax-exempt ARS, which are backed by student loans substantially guaranteed by the federal government, of $95 million ($98 million par value) at March 31, 2012. We do not currently intend to attempt to sell the ARS as the liquidity needs of our insurance subsidiaries

are expected to be met by other investments in their investment portfolios. During 2011 and the quarter ended March 31, 2012, certain issuers and their broker/dealers redeemed or repurchased $112 million and $41 million, respectively, of our ARS at par value. The valuation of these securities involved management’s judgment, after consideration of market factors and the absence of market transparency, market liquidity and observable inputs. Our valuation models derived a fair market value compared to tax-equivalent yields of other student loan backed variable rate securities of similar credit worthiness and similar effective maturities.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We have entered into interest rate and cross currency swap agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency risks. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates and implied volatilities. To comply with the provisions of ASC 820 and ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”), we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. We have made the accounting policy election to use the exception under ASU 2011-04 (commonly referred to as the “portfolio exception”) with respect to measuring counterparty credit risk for derivative instruments.

Although we determined the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. We assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions, and at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we determined the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.

NOTE 8 — CONTINGENCIES

We operate in a highly regulated and litigious industry. As a result, various lawsuits, claims and legal and regulatory proceedings have been and can be expected to be instituted or asserted against us. The resolution of any such lawsuits, claims or legal and regulatory proceedings could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Health care companies are subject to numerous investigations by various governmental agencies. Under the federal false claims act (“FCA”) private parties have the right to bring qui tam , or “whistleblower,” suits against companies that submit false claims for payments to, or improperly retain overpayments from, the government. Some states have adopted similar state whistleblower and false claims provisions. Certain of our individual facilities have received government inquiries from federal and state agencies and our facilities may receive such inquiries in future periods. Depending on whether the underlying conduct in these or future inquiries or investigations could be considered systemic, their resolution could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

We are subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims for personal injuries or wrongful restriction of, or interference with, physicians’ staff privileges. In certain of these actions the claimants may seek punitive damages against us which may not be covered by insurance. It is management’s opinion that the ultimate resolution of these pending claims and legal proceedings will not have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

The Civil Division of the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) has contacted the Company in connection with its nationwide review of whether, in certain cases, hospital charges to the federal government relating to implantable cardio-defibrillators (“ICDs”) met the CMS criteria. In connection with this nationwide review, the DOJ has indicated that it will be reviewing certain ICD billing and medical records at 95 HCA hospitals; the review covers the period from October 2003 to the present. The review could potentially give rise to claims against the Company under the federal FCA or other statutes, regulations or laws. At this time, we cannot predict what effect, if any, this review or any resulting claims could have on the Company.

On October 28, 2011, a shareholder action was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee. The case seeks to include as a class all persons who acquired the Company’s stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the March 9, 2011 initial public offering. The lawsuit asserts a claim under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the Company, certain members of the board of directors, and certain underwriters in the offering. It further asserts a claim under Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the same members of the board of directors. The action alleges deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement relating to: (1) accounting for its 2006 recapitalization and 2010 reorganization; (2) the Company’s failure to maintain effective internal controls relating to its accounting for such transactions; and (3) the Company’s revenue growth rate. Subsequently, two additional class action complaints setting forth substantially similar claims were filed in the same federal court. All three of the cases have been consolidated.

NOTE 10 — SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION (continued)

Adjusted segment EBITDA is defined as income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, losses on sales of facilities, termination of management agreement, income taxes and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. We use adjusted segment EBITDA as an analytical indicator for purposes of allocating resources to geographic areas and assessing their performance. Adjusted segment EBITDA is commonly used as an analytical indicator within the health care industry, and also serves as a measure of leverage capacity and debt service ability. Adjusted segment EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, and the items excluded from adjusted segment EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted segment EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, adjusted segment EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The geographic distributions of our revenues, equity in earnings of affiliates, adjusted segment EBITDA and depreciation and amortization for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are summarized in the following table (dollars in millions):

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes certain disclosures which contain “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can be identified by the use of words like “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “initiative” or “continue.” These forward-looking statements are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, many of which are beyond our control, which could significantly affect current plans and expectations and our future financial position and results of operations. These factors include, but are not limited to, (1) the impact of our substantial indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms, (2) the effects related to the enactment and implementation of the Budget Control Act of 2011 (“BCA”) and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively, the “Health Reform Law”), the possible enactment of additional federal or state health care reforms and possible changes to the Health Reform Law and other federal, state or local laws or regulations affecting the health care industry, (3) increases in the amount and risk of collectibility of uninsured accounts and deductibles and copayment amounts for insured accounts, (4) the ability to achieve operating and financial targets, and attain expected levels of patient volumes and control the costs of providing services, (5) possible changes in the Medicare, Medicaid and other state programs, including Medicaid upper payment limit programs or waiver programs, that may impact reimbursements to health care providers and insurers, (6) the highly competitive nature of the health care business, (7) changes in service mix, revenue mix and surgical volumes, including potential declines in the population covered under managed care agreements and the ability to enter into and renew managed care provider agreements on acceptable terms and the impact of consumer driven health plans and physician utilization trends and practices, (8) the efforts of insurers, health care providers and others to contain health care costs, (9) the outcome of our continuing efforts to monitor, maintain and comply with appropriate laws, regulations, policies and procedures, (10) increases in wages and the ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel, including affiliated physicians, nurses and medical and technical support personnel, (11) the availability and terms of capital to fund the expansion of our business and improvements to our existing facilities, (12) changes in accounting practices, (13) changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in our markets, (14) future divestitures which may result in charges and possible impairments of long-lived assets, (15) changes in business strategy or development plans, (16) delays in receiving payments for services provided, (17) the outcome of pending and any future tax audits, appeals and litigation associated with our tax positions, (18) potential adverse impact of known and unknown government investigations, litigation and other claims that may be made against us, (19) our ongoing ability to demonstrate meaningful use of certified electronic health record technology and recognize income for the related Medicare or Medicaid incentive payments, and (20) other risk factors described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future financial position and results of operations may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of HCA. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in this report, which forward-looking statements reflect management’s views only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Health Care Reform

As enacted, the Health Reform Law will change how health care services are covered, delivered and reimbursed through expanded coverage of uninsured individuals, reduced growth in Medicare program spending, reductions in Medicare and Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (“DSH”) payments, and the establishment of programs in which reimbursement is tied to quality and integration. In addition, the Health Reform Law reforms certain aspects of health insurance, expands existing efforts to tie Medicare and Medicaid payments to performance and quality, and contains provisions intended to strengthen fraud and abuse enforcement. Numerous

lawsuits have challenged the constitutionality of the Health Reform Law. Some federal courts have upheld the constitutionality of the Health Reform Law or dismissed cases on procedural grounds. Others have held unconstitutional the requirement that individuals maintain health insurance or pay a penalty and have either found the Health Reform Law void in its entirety or left the remainder of the law intact. The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to decide the constitutionality of the Health Reform Law in 2012. Based on the outcome of the U.S. Supreme Court’s review, the Health Reform Law, or individual components of it, may be upheld, invalidated or modified. In addition, repeal of the Health Reform Law has become a theme in political campaigns during this election year.

First Quarter 2012 Operations Summary

Net income attributable to HCA Holdings, Inc. totaled $540 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to $240 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Revenues increased to $8.405 billion in the first quarter of 2012 from $7.406 billion in the first quarter of 2011. First quarter 2012 results include two Medicare revenue adjustments (and related expenses) that added $170 million to income before income taxes, or $0.22 per diluted share. First quarter 2011 results include a charge of $181 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, related to the termination of the management agreement between HCA and the Investors upon completion of our initial public offering. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 458.3 million shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 and 462.0 million shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Revenues increased 13.5% on a consolidated basis and increased 5.1% on a same facility basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The increase in consolidated revenues can be attributed primarily to the combined impact of a 1.9% increase in revenue per equivalent admission and a 11.4% increase in equivalent admissions. The same facility revenues increase resulted primarily from the combined impact of a 0.3% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 4.8% increase in same facility equivalent admissions. The increase in consolidated revenues (and consolidated volume metrics) for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 is related primarily to the impact of the financial consolidation of the HCA-HealthONE LLC venture for periods subsequent to our acquisition of controlling interests during October 2011. The HealthONE venture’s operating results and volume metrics are not included in our same facility amounts. There were two adjustments (Rural Floor Provision and Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”) ratios) related to Medicare revenues for prior periods that impacted both consolidated and same facility revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The net effect of the Medicare adjustments was increases of $188 million to consolidated revenues and $174 million to same facility revenues.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, consolidated admissions and same facility admissions increased 9.0% and 3.2%, respectively, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Inpatient surgeries increased 7.1% on a consolidated basis and 1.5% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Outpatient surgeries increased 12.7% on a consolidated basis and 2.7% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Emergency department visits increased 10.5% on a consolidated basis and 5.3% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the provision for doubtful accounts increased $145 million, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $163 million and $366 million, respectively, during the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. The sum of the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, as a percentage of the sum of revenues, provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, was

First Quarter 2012 Operations Summary (continued)

27.8% for the first quarter of 2012, compared to 25.7% for the first quarter of 2011. Same facility uninsured admissions increased 11.6% and same facility uninsured emergency room visits increased 6.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Interest expense declined $91 million to $442 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $533 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The decline in interest expense was primarily due to a decline in the average effective interest rate.

Cash flows from operating activities declined $121 million from $918 million for the first quarter of 2011 to $797 million for the first quarter of 2012. The decline is primarily related to the net impact of the decline from changes in working capital items of $465 million and the increase in net income of $305 million.

Results of Operations

Revenue/Volume Trends

Our revenues depend upon inpatient occupancy levels, the ancillary services and therapy programs ordered by physicians and provided to patients, the volume of outpatient procedures and the charge and negotiated payment rates for such services. Gross charges typically do not reflect what our facilities are actually paid. Our facilities have entered into agreements with third-party payers, including government programs and managed care health plans, under which the facilities are paid based upon the cost of providing services, predetermined rates per diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts from gross charges. We do not pursue collection of amounts related to patients who meet our guidelines to qualify for charity care; therefore, they are not reported in revenues. We provide discounts to uninsured patients who do not qualify for Medicaid or charity care. These discounts are similar to those provided to many local managed care plans. After the discounts are applied, we are still unable to collect a significant portion of uninsured patients’ accounts, and we record significant provisions for doubtful accounts (based upon our historical collection experience) related to uninsured patients in the period the services are provided.

We adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-07, Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities (“ASU 2011-07”), during 2011. ASU 2011-07 requires health care entities to change the presentation of the statement of operations by reclassifying the provision for doubtful accounts from an operating expense to a deduction from patient service revenues. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 have been reclassified in accordance with ASU 2011-07.

Revenue/Volume Trends (continued)

Revenues increased 13.5% from $7.406 billion in the first quarter of 2011 to $8.405 billion in the first quarter of 2012. Revenues are recorded during the period the health care services are provided, based upon the estimated amounts due from the patients and third-party payers. Third-party payers include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare, Medicaid and other programs), managed care health plans, commercial insurance companies and employers. Estimates of contractual allowances under managed care health plans are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. Revenues related to uninsured patients and copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage may have discounts applied (uninsured discounts and contractual discounts). We also record a provision for doubtful accounts related to uninsured accounts to record the net self pay accounts receivable at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. Our revenues from our third-party payers, the uninsured and other revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are summarized in the following tables (dollars in millions):

The increase in revenues for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 includes two adjustments (Rural Floor Provision Settlement and SSI ratios) related to Medicare revenues for prior periods. The net effect of the Medicare adjustments was an increase of $188 million to revenues. The Rural Floor Provision Settlement was signed on April 5, 2012. As a result of the agreement, we expect to receive additional Medicare payments of approximately $271 million by June 30, 2012. This amount was recorded as an increase to Medicare revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. During March 2012, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) issued new SSI ratios used for calculating Medicare DSH reimbursement for federal fiscal years ending September 30, 2006 through September 30, 2009. As a result, we recalculated our DSH reimbursement for all applicable periods. The cumulative impact of this retroactive adjustment was a reduction in Medicare revenues of approximately $83 million. This adjustment was recorded as a reduction to Medicare revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Consolidated and same facility revenue per equivalent admission increased 1.9% and 0.3%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Excluding the net effect of the two Medicare adjustments, consolidated and same facility revenue per equivalent admission declined 0.4% and 2.0%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility equivalent admissions increased 11.4% and 4.8%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility admissions increased 9.0% and 3.2%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgeries

increased 12.7% and 2.7%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries increased 7.1% and 1.5%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 10.5% and 5.3%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011.

To quantify the total impact of and trends related to uninsured accounts, we believe it is beneficial to view the direct uninsured revenue deductions and provision for doubtful accounts in combination, rather than each separately. At March 31, 2012, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 92% of the $4.517 billion total patient due accounts receivable balance. The patient due accounts receivable balance represents the estimated uninsured portion of our accounts receivable. A summary of these amounts for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 follows (dollars in millions):

Same facility uninsured admissions increased by 3,074 admissions, or 11.6%, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Same facility uninsured admissions in 2011, compared to 2010, increased by 5.2% in the fourth quarter of 2011, 8.8% in the third quarter of 2011, 10.6% in the second quarter of 2011 and 4.7% in the first quarter of 2011.

The approximate percentages of our admissions related to Medicare, managed Medicare, Medicaid, managed Medicaid, managed care and other insurers and the uninsured for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are set forth in the following table.

At March 31, 2012, we had 75 hospitals in the states of Texas and Florida. During the first quarter of 2012, 55% of our admissions and 47% of our revenues were generated by these hospitals. Uninsured admissions in Texas and Florida represented 60% of our uninsured admissions during the first quarter of 2012.

We receive a significant portion of our revenues from government health programs, principally Medicare and Medicaid, which are highly regulated and subject to frequent and substantial changes. We provide indigent care services in several communities in the state of Texas, in affiliation with other hospitals. The state of Texas has been involved in efforts to increase the indigent care provided by private hospitals. As a result of additional indigent care being provided by private hospitals, public hospital districts or counties in Texas have available funds that were previously devoted to indigent care. The public hospital districts or counties are under no contractual or legal obligation to provide such indigent care. The public hospital districts or counties have elected to transfer some portion of these available funds to the state’s Medicaid program. Such action is at the sole discretion of the public hospital districts or counties. It is anticipated that these contributions to the state will be matched with federal Medicaid funds. The state then may make supplemental payments to hospitals in the state for Medicaid services rendered. Hospitals receiving Medicaid supplemental payments may include those that are providing additional indigent care services. Our Texas Medicaid revenues included $128 million and $167 million during the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively, of Medicaid supplemental payments. In addition, we receive supplemental payments in several other states. We are aware these supplemental payment programs are currently being reviewed by certain state agencies and some states have made waiver requests to CMS to replace their existing supplemental payment programs. It is possible these reviews and waiver requests will result in the restructuring of such supplemental payment programs and could result in the payment programs being reduced or eliminated. In 2011, CMS approved a Medicaid waiver that allows Texas to continue receiving supplemental Medicaid reimbursement while expanding its Medicaid managed care program, thus Texas is operating pursuant to a waiver program. However, we cannot predict whether the Texas private supplemental Medicaid reimbursement program will continue or guarantee that revenues recognized for the program will not decline. Because deliberations about these programs are ongoing, we are unable to estimate the financial impact the program structure modifications, if any, may have on our results of operations.

Electronic Health Record Incentive Payments

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 provides for Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments beginning in 2011 for eligible hospitals and professionals that adopt and meaningfully use certified

electronic health record (“EHR”) technology. We recognize income related to Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments using a gain contingency model that is based upon when our eligible hospitals have demonstrated meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period and the cost report information for the full cost report year that will determine the final calculation of the incentive payment is available.

Medicaid EHR incentive calculations and related payment amounts are based upon prior period cost report information available at the time our eligible hospitals adopt, implement or demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period, and are not subject to revision for cost report data filed for a subsequent period. Thus, incentive income recognition occurs at the point our eligible hospitals adopt, implement or demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period, as the cost report information for the full cost report year that will determine the final calculation of the incentive payment is known at that time.

Medicare EHR incentive calculations and related initial payment amounts are based upon the most current filed cost report information available at the time our eligible hospitals demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period. However, unlike Medicaid, this initial payment amount will be adjusted based upon an updated calculation using the annual cost report information for the cost report period that began during the applicable payment year. Thus, incentive income recognition occurs at the point our eligible hospitals demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period and the cost report information for the full cost report year that will determine the final calculation of the incentive payment is available.

We recognized $55 million of electronic health record incentive income related to Medicaid ($3 million) and Medicare ($52 million) incentive programs during the first quarter of 2012. At March 31, 2012, we have $102 million of deferred EHR incentive income, which represents initial incentive payments received for which EHR incentive income has not been recognized. We have incurred and will continue to incur both capital costs and operating expenses in order to implement our certified EHR technology and meet meaningful use requirements. These expenses are ongoing and are projected to continue over all stages of implementation of meaningful use. The timing of recognition of the expenses may not correlate with the receipt of the incentive payments and the recognition of income. For the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, we incurred $17 million and $20 million, respectively, of operating expenses to implement our certified EHR technology and meet meaningful use.

For 2012, we estimate EHR incentive income will be recognized in the range of $325 million to $350 million and that related EHR operating expenses will be in the range of $125 million to $150 million. Actual EHR incentive income and EHR operating expenses could vary from these estimates due to certain factors, including the availability of federal funding for both Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments, timing of the approval of state Medicaid incentive payment plans by CMS and our ability to continue to demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology. The failure of any of these factors to occur could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results of Operations (continued)

Quarters Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Net income attributable to HCA Holdings, Inc. totaled $540 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012 compared to $240 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011. First quarter 2012 results include two Medicare adjustments (and related expenses) that added $170 million to income before income taxes, or $0.22 per diluted share. First quarter 2011 results include a charge of $181 million (pretax), or $0.32 per diluted share, related to the termination of the management agreement between HCA and the Investors upon completion of our initial public offering. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 458.3 million shares and 462.0 million shares for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

For the first quarter of 2012, consolidated and same facility admissions increased 9.0% and 3.2%, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgical volumes increased 12.7% and 2.7%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries increased 7.1% and 1.5%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 10.5% and 5.3%, respectively, during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Revenues before provision for doubtful accounts increased 14.2% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Provision for doubtful accounts increased $145 million from $649 million in the first quarter of 2011 to $794 million in the first quarter of 2012. The provision for doubtful accounts relates primarily to uninsured amounts due directly from patients, including copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $163 million and $366 million, respectively, during the first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of 2011. The sum of the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, as a percentage of the sum of revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, was 27.8% for the first quarter of 2012, compared to 25.7% for the first quarter of 2011. At March 31, 2012, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 92% of the $4.517 billion total patient due accounts receivable balance, including accounts, net of estimated contractual discounts, related to patients for which eligibility for Medicaid coverage or uninsured discounts was being evaluated.

Revenues increased 13.5% primarily due to the combined impact of revenue per equivalent admission growth of 1.9% and an increase of 11.4% in equivalent admissions for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Same facility revenues increased 5.1% due to the combined impact of a 0.3% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 4.8% increase in same facility equivalent admissions for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. The increase in revenues for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 is related primarily to the combined impact of the financial consolidation of our 2011 acquisition of our partner’s interest in the HCA-HealthONE LLC venture for periods subsequent to our acquisition of controlling interests during October 2011 (HealthONE revenues are not included in same facility amounts) and two adjustments (Rural Floor Provision Settlement and SSI ratios) related to Medicare revenues for prior periods. The net effect of the Medicare adjustments was an increase of $188 million to revenues.

Salaries and benefits, as a percentage of revenues, were 44.5% in the first quarters of both 2012 and 2011. Salaries and benefits per equivalent admission increased 1.8% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Same facility labor rate increases averaged 1.8% for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Results of Operations (continued)

Quarters Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 (continued)

Supplies, as a percentage of revenues, were 16.9% in the first quarter of 2012 and 17.2% in the first quarter of 2011. Supply cost per equivalent admission declined 0.2% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 0.4% for medical devices and declined 1.7% for pharmacy supplies, 1.4% for general medical and surgical items and 5.0% for blood products in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Other operating expenses, as a percentage of revenues, declined to 17.6% in the first quarter of 2012 from 17.8% in the first quarter of 2011. Other operating expenses is primarily comprised of contract services, professional fees, repairs and maintenance, rents and leases, utilities, insurance (including professional liability insurance) and nonincome taxes. Other operating expenses include $80 million and $91 million of indigent care costs in certain Texas markets during the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Provisions for losses related to professional liability risks were $94 million and $61 million for the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

We recognized $55 million of electronic health record incentive income related to Medicaid ($3 million) and Medicare ($52 million) incentive programs during the first quarter of 2012. We recognize income related to Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments using a gain contingency model that is based upon when our eligible hospitals have demonstrated meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable period and the cost report information for the full cost report year that will determine the final calculation of the incentive payment is available.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $11 million and $76 million in the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Equity in earnings of affiliates for the first quarter of 2011 relates primarily to our Denver, Colorado market (HealthONE) joint venture, which effective November 1, 2011, we began consolidating due to our acquisition of our partner’s approximate 40% ownership interest.

Depreciation and amortization increased $59 million, from $358 million in the first quarter of 2011 to $417 million in the first quarter of 2012. The increase was primarily related to the consolidation of HealthONE.

Interest expense declined from $533 million in the first quarter of 2011 to $442 million in the first quarter of 2012 due primarily to a decline in the average effective interest rate. Our average debt balance was $27.537 billion for the first quarter of 2012 compared to $27.357 billion for the first quarter of 2011. The average effective interest rate for our long term debt declined from 7.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 to 6.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

During each of the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, we recorded net losses on sales of facilities of $1 million.

Our Investors provided management and advisory services to the Company, pursuant to a management agreement among HCA and the Investors executed in connection with the Investors’ acquisition of HCA in November 2006. In March 2011, the management agreement was terminated pursuant to its terms upon completion of the initial public offering of our common stock, and the Investors were paid a final fee of $181 million.

The effective tax rates were 37.4% and 43.3% for the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The effective tax rate computations exclude net income attributable to noncontrolling interests as it relates to consolidated partnerships. Our provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2011 increased by $29 million

related to adjustments to our liability for unrecognized tax benefits. Excluding the effect of these adjustments, the effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2011 would have been 36.4%.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $94 million for the first quarter of 2011 to $99 million for the first quarter of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $797 million in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $918 million in the first quarter of 2011. The $121 million decline in cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 related primarily to the net effect of the negative impact from changes in working capital items of $465 million and the increase in net income of $305 million. The combined interest payments and net tax refunds in the first quarters of 2012 and 2011 were $492 million and $241 million, respectively. Working capital totaled $1.667 billion at March 31, 2012 and $1.679 billion at December 31, 2011.

Cash used in investing activities was $437 million in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $273 million in the first quarter of 2011. Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures were $335 million in the first quarter of 2012 and $329 million in the first quarter of 2011. We expended $58 million for the acquisition of a hospital facility during the first quarter of 2012. We also expended $54 million and $22 million to acquire nonhospital health care facilities during the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Capital expenditures are expected to approximate $1.85 billion in 2012. At March 31, 2012, there were projects under construction which had estimated additional costs to complete and equip over the next five years of approximately $1.61 billion. We expect to finance capital expenditures with internally generated and borrowed funds. We received $55 million from sales of hospitals and health care entities during the first quarter of 2011. We received net cash flows from our investments of $6 million and $20 million in the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Cash used in financing activities totaled $262 million during the first quarter of 2012 compared to $503 million during the first quarter of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, net cash flows used in financing activities included increases in net borrowings of $787 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $93 million, distributions to stockholders of $982 million, payments of debt issuance costs of $16 million and receipts of $49 million of income tax benefits for certain items (primarily distributions to holders of our stock options). During the first quarter of 2011, cash flows used in financing activities included reductions in net borrowings of $2.900 billion, net proceeds of $2.506 billion related to the issuance of common stock in conjunction with our initial public offering, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $95 million, distributions to stockholders of $30 million and receipts of $22 million of income tax benefits for certain items (primarily distributions to holders of our stock options).

We are a highly leveraged company with significant debt service requirements. Our debt totaled $27.902 billion at March 31, 2012. Our interest expense was $442 million for the first quarter of 2012 and $533 million for the first quarter of 2011. The decline in interest expense was primarily related to a decline in the average effective interest rate.

In addition to cash flows from operations, available sources of capital include amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities ($2.750 billion and $2.860 billion available as of March 31, 2012 and April 30, 2012, respectively) and anticipated access to public and private debt markets.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

During February 2012, our Board of Directors declared a distribution to the Company’s stockholders and holders of vested stock awards. The distribution declared was $2.00 per share and vested stock award, or approximately $971 million in the aggregate.

During February 2012, we issued $1.350 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior secured notes due 2022. After the payment of related fees and expenses, we used the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

During October 2011, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00% senior unsecured notes due 2018. After the payment of related fees and expenses, we used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which included funding a portion of the acquisition of the Colorado Health Foundation’s approximate 40% remaining ownership interest in the HCA-HealthONE LLC joint venture, which was purchased during October 2011 for $1.450 billion.

During September 2011, we repurchased 80,771,143 shares of our common stock beneficially owned by affiliates of Bank of America Corporation at a purchase price of $18.61 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on September 14, 2011. The repurchase was financed using a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under available credit facilities.

During September 2011, we refinanced our $2.000 billion asset-based revolving credit facility maturing on November 16, 2012 to increase the total capacity to $2.500 billion and extend the maturity to 2016.

During August 2011, we issued $5.000 billion aggregate principal amount of notes, comprised of $3.000 billion of 6.50% senior secured first lien notes due 2020 and $2.000 billion of 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2022. We used the net proceeds from these debt issuances to redeem all of our outstanding $1.578 billion 9 5 / 8 %/10 3 / 8 % second lien toggle notes due 2016, at a redemption price of 106.783% of the principal amount, and all of our outstanding $3.200 billion 9 1 / 4 % second lien notes due 2016, at a redemption price of 106.513% of the principal amount. The pretax debt retirement charge related to these redemptions was $406 million.

During June 2011, we redeemed all $1.000 billion aggregate principal amount of our 9 1 / 8 % senior secured notes due 2014, at a redemption price of 104.563% of the principal amount, and $108 million aggregate principal amount of our 9 7 / 8 % senior secured notes due 2017, at a redemption price of 109.875% of the principal amount. The pretax loss on retirement of debt related to these redemptions was $75 million.

During May 2011, we completed amendments to our senior secured credit agreement and senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement, as well as extensions of certain of our term loans. The amendments extend $594 million of our term loan A facility with a final maturity of November 2012 to a final maturity of May 2016 and $2.373 billion of our term loan A and term loan B-1 facilities with final maturities of November 2012 and November 2013, respectively, to a final maturity of May 2018.

Investments of our insurance subsidiaries, to maintain statutory equity and pay claims, totaled $610 million and $628 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. An insurance subsidiary maintained net reserves for professional liability risks of $353 million and $410 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Our facilities are insured by a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary for losses up to $50 million per occurrence; however, this coverage is subject to a $5 million per occurrence self-insured retention. Net reserves for the self-insured professional liability risks retained were $926 million and $842 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Claims payments, net of reinsurance recoveries, during the next 12 months are expected to approximate $289 million. We estimate that approximately $215 million of the expected net claim payments during the next 12 months will relate to claims subject to the self-insured retention.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

Management believes that cash flows from operations, amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities and our anticipated access to public and private debt markets will be sufficient to meet expected liquidity needs during the next 12 months.

Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in market values of securities. The investments in debt and equity securities of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries were $602 million and $8 million, respectively, at March 31, 2012. These investments are carried at fair value, with changes in unrealized gains and losses being recorded as adjustments to other comprehensive income. At March 31, 2012, we had a net unrealized gain of $16 million on the insurance subsidiaries’ investment securities.

We are exposed to market risk related to market illiquidity. Investments in debt and equity securities of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries could be impaired by the inability to access the capital markets. Should the wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries require significant amounts of cash in excess of normal cash requirements to pay claims and other expenses on short notice, we may have difficulty selling these investments in a timely manner or be forced to sell them at a price less than what we might otherwise have been able to in a normal market environment. At March 31, 2012, our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries had invested $95 million ($98 million par value) in tax-exempt student loan auction rate securities that continue to experience market illiquidity. It is uncertain if auction-related market liquidity will resume for these securities. We may be required to recognize other-than-temporary impairments on these long-term investments in future periods should issuers default on interest payments or should the fair market valuations of the securities deteriorate due to ratings downgrades or other issue specific factors.

We are also exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, and we periodically enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to these fluctuations. Our interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties, based on common notional principal amounts and maturity dates. The notional amounts of the swap agreements represent balances used to calculate the exchange of cash flows and are not our assets or liabilities. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions. The interest payments under these agreements are settled on a net basis. These derivatives have been recognized in the financial statements at their respective fair values. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives, which are designated as cash flow hedges, are included in other comprehensive income, and changes in the fair value of derivatives which have not been designated as hedges are recorded in operations.

With respect to our interest-bearing liabilities, approximately $4.544 billion of long-term debt at March 31, 2012 was subject to variable rates of interest, while the remaining balance in long-term debt of $23.358 billion at March 31, 2012 was subject to fixed rates of interest. Both the general level of interest rates and, for the senior secured credit facilities, our leverage affect our variable interest rates. Our variable debt is comprised primarily of amounts outstanding under the senior secured credit facilities. Borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (2) the prime rate of Bank of America or (b) a LIBOR rate for the currency of such borrowing for the relevant interest period. The applicable margin for borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities may fluctuate according to a leverage ratio. The average effective interest rate for our long-term debt declined from 7.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 to 6.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Market Risk (continued)

The estimated fair value of our total long-term debt was $28.821 billion at March 31, 2012. The estimates of fair value are based upon the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues of long-term debt with the same maturities. Based on a hypothetical 1% increase in interest rates, the potential annualized reduction to future pretax earnings would be approximately $45 million. To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in interest rates, we generally target a portion of our debt portfolio to be maintained at fixed rates.

Our international operations and foreign currency denominated loans expose us to market risks associated with foreign currencies. In order to mitigate the currency exposure related to foreign currency denominated debt service obligations, we have entered into cross currency swap agreements. A cross currency swap is an agreement between two parties to exchange a stream of principal and interest payments in one currency for a stream of principal and interest payments in another currency over a specified period. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions.

Pending IRS Disputes

We are contesting certain claimed deficiencies and adjustments proposed by the IRS Examination Division in connection with its audit of HCA Inc.’s 2005 and 2006 federal income tax returns. The disputed items include the timing of recognition of certain patient service revenues, the deductibility of certain debt retirement costs and our method for calculating the tax allowance for doubtful accounts. The IRS Examination Division began an audit of HCA Inc.’s 2007, 2008 and 2009 federal income tax returns in 2010.

Management believes HCA Holdings, Inc., its predecessors and affiliates properly reported taxable income and paid taxes in accordance with applicable laws and agreements established with the IRS and final resolution of these disputes will not have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, if payments due upon final resolution of these issues exceed our recorded estimates, such resolutions could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

(a) Licensed beds are those beds for which a facility has been granted approval to operate from the applicable state licensing agency.
(b) Represents the average number of licensed beds, weighted based on periods owned.
(c) Represents the average number of patients in our hospital beds each day.
(d) Represents the total number of patients admitted to our hospitals and is used by management and certain investors as a general measure of inpatient volume.
(e) Equivalent admissions are used by management and certain investors as a general measure of combined inpatient and outpatient volume. Equivalent admissions are computed by multiplying admissions (inpatient volume) by the sum of gross inpatient revenues and gross outpatient revenues and then dividing the resulting amount by gross inpatient revenues. The equivalent admissions computation “equates” outpatient revenues to the volume measure (admissions) used to measure inpatient volume resulting in a general measure of combined inpatient and outpatient volume.
(f) Represents the average number of days admitted patients stay in our hospitals.
(g) Represents the number of patients treated in our emergency rooms.
(h) Represents the number of surgeries performed on patients who were not admitted to our hospitals. Pain management and endoscopy procedures are not included in outpatient surgeries.
(i) Represents the number of surgeries performed on patients who have been admitted to our hospitals. Pain management and endoscopy procedures are not included in inpatient surgeries.
(j) Revenues per day is calculated by dividing the revenues for the period by the days in the period. Days revenues in accounts receivable is then calculated as accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, at the end of the period divided by the revenues per day. With our adoption of ASU 2011-07 during 2011, “revenues” used in this computation are net of the provision for doubtful accounts.
(k) Gross patient revenues are based upon our standard charge listing. Gross charges/revenues typically do not reflect what our hospital facilities are paid. Gross charges/revenues are reduced by contractual adjustments, discounts and charity care to determine reported revenues.
(l) Represents the percentage of patient revenues related to patients who are not admitted to our hospitals.
(m) Accounts receivable aging data is based upon consolidated gross accounts receivable of $9.034 billion (each 1% is equivalent to approximately $90 million of gross accounts receivable).

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The information called for by this item is provided under the caption “Market Risk” under Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

HCA’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of HCA’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded HCA’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We operate in a highly regulated and litigious industry. As a result, various lawsuits, claims and legal and regulatory proceedings have been and can be expected to be instituted or asserted against us. The resolution of any such lawsuits, claims or legal and regulatory proceedings could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial position in a given period.

Government Investigations, Claims and Litigation

Health care companies are subject to numerous investigations by various governmental agencies. Further, under the federal FCA, private parties have the right to bring qui tam , or “whistleblower,” suits against companies that submit false claims for payments to, or improperly retain overpayments from, the government. Some states have adopted similar state whistleblower and false claims provisions. Certain of our individual facilities have received, and from time to time, other facilities may receive, government inquiries from, and may be subject to investigation by, federal and state agencies. Depending on whether the underlying conduct in these or future inquiries or investigations could be considered systemic, their resolution could have a material, adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

The DOJ has contacted the Company in connection with its nationwide review of whether, in certain cases, hospital charges to the federal government relating to implantable cardio-defibrillators (“ICDs”) met the CMS criteria. In connection with this nationwide review, the DOJ has indicated that it will be reviewing certain ICD billing and medical records at 95 HCA hospitals; the review covers the period from October 2003 to the present. The review could potentially give rise to claims against the Company under the federal FCA or other statutes, regulations or laws. At this time, we cannot predict what effect, if any, this review or any resulting claims could have on the Company.

New Hampshire Hospital Litigation

In 2006, the Foundation for Seacoast Health (the “Foundation”) filed suit against HCA in state court in New Hampshire. The Foundation alleged that both the 2006 recapitalization transaction and a prior 1999 intra-corporate transaction violated a 1983 agreement that placed certain restrictions on transfers of the Portsmouth

Table of Contents

Regional Hospital. In May 2007, the trial court ruled against the Foundation on all its claims. On appeal, the New Hampshire Supreme Court affirmed the ruling on the 2006 recapitalization, but remanded to the trial court the claims based on the 1999 intra-corporate transaction. The trial court ruled in December 2009 that the 1999 intra-corporate transaction breached the transfer restriction provisions of the 1983 agreement. In September of 2011, the trial court issued its remedies phase decision and held that the only remedy to which the Foundation was entitled was rescission of the intra-corporate transfer that breached the transfer restriction (the Company has complied with the Court’s order, and it is not expected that such compliance will have any material effect on our operations or financial position). The Court awarded the Foundation, under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, a “fraction” of its attorney fees. The Foundation appealed the remedy phase ruling, and the Company cross-appealed the liability determination. On October 31, 2011, the New Hampshire Supreme Court, on its own, raised the question whether the appeal needed to await the trial court’s further ruling on attorney fees. On November 21, 2011, after the parties briefed the issue, the New Hampshire Supreme Court dismissed the appeal as premature and remanded the case to the trial court. In February 2012, the trial court certified the case for a possible interlocutory appeal without addressing the attorney fees issue. The New Hampshire Supreme Court rejected the request for an interlocutory appeal. The parties subsequently reached a stipulation regarding the attorney fees. An appeal is expected to go forward following entry of judgment by the trial court.

Securities Class Action Litigation

On October 28, 2011, a shareholder action, Schuh v. HCA Holdings, Inc. et al., was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee seeking monetary relief. The case seeks to include as a class all persons who acquired the Company’s stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the March 9, 2011 initial public offering. The lawsuit asserts a claim under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the Company, certain members of the board of directors, and certain underwriters in the offering. It further asserts a claim under Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the same members of the board of directors. The action alleges deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement relating to: (1) accounting for its 2006 recapitalization and 2010 reorganization; (2) the Company’s failure to maintain effective internal controls relating to its accounting for such transactions; and (3) the Company’s revenue growth rate. Subsequently, two additional class action complaints, Kishtah v. HCA Holdings, Inc. et al. and Daniels v. HCA Holdings, Inc. et al., setting forth substantially similar claims against substantially the same defendants in addition to Ernst & Young, LLP were filed in the same federal court on November 16, 2011 and December 12, 2011, respectively. All three of the cases have been consolidated, and the parties have agreed to initial scheduling matters.

In addition to the above described shareholder class actions, on December 8, 2011, a federal shareholder derivative action, Sutton v. Bracken, et al., putatively initiated in the name of the Company, was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee against certain officers and present and former directors of the Company seeking monetary relief. The action alleges breaches of fiduciary duties by the named officers and directors in connection with the accounting and earnings claims set forth in the shareholder class actions. Setting forth substantially similar claims against substantially the same defendants, an additional federal derivative action, Schroeder v. Bracken, et al., was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on December 16, 2011, and a state derivative action, Bagot v. Bracken, et al., was filed in Tennessee state court in the Davidson County Circuit Court on December 20, 2011. The federal derivative actions have been consolidated in the Middle District of Tennessee and the parties have agreed that those cases shall be stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions. The state derivative action has also been stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions.

General Liability and Other Claims

We are subject to claims for additional income taxes and related interest by the IRS Examination Division. For a description of those proceedings, see Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Pending IRS Disputes” and Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We are also subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims for personal injuries or for wrongful restriction of, or interference with, physicians’ staff privileges. In certain of these actions the claimants have asked for punitive damages against us, which may not be covered by insurance. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these pending claims and legal proceedings will not have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.
