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. 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 100% 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

During March 2011, we completed the initial public offering of 87,719,300 shares of our common stock. Upon the completion of a secondary offering in February 2013, we no longer qualify as a “controlled company” under the applicable New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards and will be required to appoint a board of directors comprised of a majority of independent members within one year of such date. Our common stock is traded on the NYSE (symbol “HCA”).

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 September 30, 2013, these affiliates owned and operated 162 hospitals, 114 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 “costs of revenues” items. Costs that could be classified as general and administrative would include our corporate office costs, which were $76 million and $62 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $207 million and $174 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Operating results for the quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. 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, 2012.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 1 — INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Basis of Presentation (continued)

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 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 revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. Our revenues from third-party payers and the uninsured for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are summarized in the following table (dollars in millions):

million and the implementation of revised Supplemental Security Income ratios which reduced revenues by approximately $83 million). The net effect of these Medicare adjustments was an increase of $188 million to revenues. The net effect of these adjustments (and related expenses) added $170 million to income before income taxes, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

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

NOTE 2 — ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we paid $278 million and recorded goodwill and identifiable intangible assets of $180 million and $113 million, respectively, related to the acquisition of The Outsource Group, which was acquired by our Parallon Business Solutions affiliate and is included in the Corporate and other Group. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we also paid $39 million to acquire nonhospital health care entities and $146 million related to the acquisition of three hospitals which became effective October 1, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we paid $58 million, assumed liabilities of $33 million and recorded goodwill of $53 million related to the acquisition of a hospital facility in the American Group, and we paid $109 million to acquire nonhospital health care entities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we received proceeds of $31 million and recognized a net pretax loss of $13 million related to the sale of a hospital facility and other real estate investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we received proceeds of $17 million and recognized a net pretax gain of $4 million related to sales of real estate investments.

NOTE 3 — INCOME TAXES

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we finalized settlements with the IRS resolving all outstanding issues for HCA Inc.’s 2007, 2008 and 2009 tax years. We expect the IRS Examination Division will begin an audit of HCA Holdings, Inc.’s 2011 federal income tax return in 2014.

Our liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $417 million, including accrued interest of $26 million, as of September 30, 2013 ($426 million and $14 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2012). Unrecognized tax benefits of $151 million ($125 million as of December 31, 2012) would affect the effective rate, if recognized. The provision for income taxes reflects $7 million and $1 million ($4 million and none, respectively, net of tax) of interest expense related to taxing authority examinations for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $8 million and $20 million ($5 million and $13 million, respectively, net of tax) of reductions in interest expense related to taxing authority examinations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Depending on the completion of examinations by federal, state or international taxing authorities, the resolution of any tax disputes, 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.

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1 million and $9 million, respectively, of our money market fund investments were subject to restrictions included in insurance bond collateralization and assumed reinsurance contracts.

The average expected maturity of the investments in debt securities at September 30, 2013 was 4.0 years, compared to the average scheduled maturity of 7.1 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 September 30, 2013, the average expected maturities for our auction rate and asset-backed securities were 1.4 years and 3.9 years, respectively, compared to average scheduled maturities of 22.1 years and 22.7 years, respectively.

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. 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.

The following table sets forth our interest rate swap agreements, which have been designated as cash flow hedges, at September 30, 2013 (dollars in millions):

During the next 12 months, we estimate $127 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (“OCI”) to interest expense.

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 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 September 30, 2013 (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 September 30, 2013, we have not been required to post any collateral related to these agreements. If we had breached these provisions at September 30, 2013, we would have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their aggregate, estimated termination value of $341 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

12

HCA HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 7 — ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE (continued)

Cash Traded Investments (continued)

Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency. The valuation of these securities involves management’s judgment, after consideration of market factors and the absence of market transparency, market liquidity and observable inputs. Our valuation models derived fair market values compared to tax-equivalent yields of other 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. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

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 September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we determined the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.

NOTE 9 — CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL CLAIM COSTS

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. We are also 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. 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.

Government Investigations, Claims and Litigation

Health care companies are subject to numerous investigations by various governmental agencies. Further, 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, 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.

As initially disclosed in 2010, 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. In August 2012, HCA, along with non-HCA hospitals across the country subject to the DOJ’s review, received from the DOJ a proposed framework for resolving the DOJ’s review of ICDs. The Company is cooperating in the review. 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.

In July 2012, the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami requested information on reviews assessing the medical necessity of interventional cardiology services provided at any Company facility (other than peer reviews). The Company is cooperating with the government’s request and is currently producing medical records associated with particular reviews at eight hospitals, located primarily in Florida. At this time, we cannot predict what effect, if any, the request or any resulting claims, including any potential claims under the federal FCA, other statutes, regulations or laws, could have on the Company.

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 sought to include as a class all persons who acquired the Company’s stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s Registration Statement issued in connection with the March 9, 2011 initial public offering. The lawsuit asserted 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 asserted a claim under Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the same members of the board of directors. The action alleged various deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement. 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 were filed in the same federal court on November 16, 2011 and December 12, 2011, respectively. All three of the cases were consolidated. On May 3, 2012, the court appointed New England Teamsters & Trucking Industry Pension Fund as Lead Plaintiff for the consolidated action. On July 13, 2012, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint asserting claims under Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) 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 and Hercules Holdings II, LLC, a majority shareholder of the Company at the time of the initial public offering. The consolidated complaint alleges deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement and Prospectus relating to: (1) the accounting for the Company’s 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 Medicare and Medicaid revenue growth rates. The Company and other defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint on September 11, 2012. The Court granted the motion in part on May 28, 2013. The action is proceeding to discovery on the remaining claims.

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 were consolidated in the Middle District of Tennessee and stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions. The state derivative action had also been stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions, but that stay has expired. The plaintiff in the state derivative action subsequently filed an amended complaint on September 9, 2013 that added additional allegations made in the shareholder class actions. The Company has filed a motion to again stay the state derivative action pending developments in the class action, but the Court has not yet acted on that motion. On September 24, 2013, an additional state derivative action, Steinberg v. Bracken, et al., was filed in Tennessee state court in the Davidson County Circuit Court. This action against our board of directors is substantially similar to the earlier filed state derivative action and the Company is attempting to consolidate the two state actions.

Health Midwest Litigation

In October 2009, the Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City, a nonprofit health foundation, filed suit against HCA Inc. in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri and alleged that HCA did not fund the level of capital expenditures and uncompensated care agreed to in connection with HCA’s purchase of hospitals from Health Midwest in 2003. The central issue in the case was whether HCA’s construction of new hospitals counted towards its $450 million five-year capital commitments. In addition, the plaintiff alleged that HCA did not make its required capital expenditures in a timely fashion. On January 24, 2013, the Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and awarded at least $162 million. The Court also ordered a court-supervised accounting of HCA’s capital expenditures, as well as of expenditures on charity and uncompensated care during the ten years following the purchase. Should the accounting fail to satisfy the Court concerning HCA’s compliance with its capital and charity care commitments, the amount of the judgment award could substantially increase. The Court also indicated it would award plaintiff attorneys fees, which the parties have stipulated are about $12 million. HCA recorded $175 million of legal claim costs in the fourth quarter of 2012 related to this ruling. The accounting for HCA’s capital expenditures and charity and uncompensated care is ongoing and will likely not be concluded before the end of 2013. HCA plans to appeal the trial court’s ruling on the breach of contract claim and order for the accounting once the trial court rules on the accounting and enters final judgment.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION (continued)

Adjusted segment EBITDA is defined as income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, losses (gains) on sales of facilities, loss on retirement of debt, 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 and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are summarized in the following table (dollars in millions):

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes certain disclosures which contain “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include statements regarding estimated electronic health record (“EHR”) incentive income and related EHR operating expenses, expected capital expenditures, expected net claim payments and all other 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 implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively, the “Health Reform Law”), the possible delays in or complications related to implementation of 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) the effects related to the continued implementation of the sequestration spending reductions required under the Budget Control Act of 2011 (the “BCA”) and the potential for future deficit reduction legislation that may alter BCA-mandated spending reductions, which include cuts to Medicare payments, or create additional spending reductions, (4) increases in the amount and risk of collectibility of uninsured accounts and deductibles and copayment amounts for insured accounts, (5) the ability to achieve operating and financial targets, and attain expected levels of patient volumes and control the costs of providing services, (6) possible changes in the Medicare, Medicaid and other state programs, including Medicaid upper payment limit (“UPL”) programs or Waiver Programs, that may impact reimbursements to health care providers and insurers, (7) the highly competitive nature of the health care business, (8) changes in service mix, revenue mix and surgical volumes, including potential declines in the population covered under managed care agreements, 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, (9) the efforts of insurers, health care providers and others to contain health care costs, (10) the outcome of our continuing efforts to monitor, maintain and comply with appropriate laws, regulations, policies and procedures, (11) increases in wages and the ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel, including affiliated physicians, nurses and medical and technical support personnel, (12) the availability and terms of capital to fund the expansion of our business and improvements to our existing facilities, (13) changes in accounting practices, (14) changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in our markets, (15) future divestitures which may result in charges and possible impairments of long-lived assets, (16) changes in business strategy or development plans, (17) delays in receiving payments for services provided, (18) the outcome of pending and any future tax audits, appeals and litigation associated with our tax positions, (19) potential adverse impact of known and unknown government investigations, litigation and other claims that may be made against us, (20) our ongoing ability to demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology and recognize income for the related Medicare or Medicaid incentive payments, and (21) other risk factors described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 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

The Health Reform Law changes how health care services are covered, delivered and reimbursed through expanded coverage of uninsured individuals, reduced growth in Medicare program spending, reductions

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Health Care Reform (continued)

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. The provisions of the Health Reform Law that seek to decrease the number of uninsured individuals mostly will become effective January 1, 2014. However, the federal online insurance marketplace has experienced significant technical issues that have negatively impacted the ability of individuals to enroll in Medicaid and to purchase health insurance. These technical issues, especially if not corrected in a timely manner, could lead to delays in the individual mandate tax penalties past the current March 31, 2014 deadline, delays in uninsured individuals obtaining health insurance and a reduction in the number of individuals choosing to purchase health insurance rather than paying the individual mandate tax penalties. The employer mandate, which requires firms with 50 or more full-time employees to offer health insurance or pay fines, has been delayed until January 1, 2015. In addition, a number of states have announced their intent to opt out of the Medicaid expansion, but these states could choose to implement the expansion at a later date. It is unclear how many states will ultimately decline to implement the Medicaid expansion provisions of the law. We are unable to predict with any reasonable certainty the likely impact of the Health Reform Law on our business model, financial condition or result of operations due to the law’s complexity, lack of implementing regulations or interpretive guidance, gradual and partially delayed implementation, court challenges and possible amendment, repeal or further implementation delays, as well as our inability to foresee how individuals, states and businesses will respond to the choices afforded them by the law.

Third Quarter 2013 Operations Summary

Revenues increased to $8.456 billion in the third quarter of 2013 from $8.062 billion in the third quarter of 2012. Net income attributable to HCA Holdings, Inc. totaled $365 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $360 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 463.6 million shares for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 and 459.5 million shares for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Revenues increased 4.9% on a consolidated basis and increased 4.5% on a same facility basis for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The increase in consolidated revenues can be attributed to the combined impact of a 3.9% increase in revenue per equivalent admission and a 0.9% increase in equivalent admissions. The same facility revenues increase resulted from the combined impact of a 3.4% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 1.1% increase in same facility equivalent admissions.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, consolidated admissions and same facility admissions increased 0.5% and 0.7%, respectively, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Inpatient surgeries increased 3.4% on a consolidated basis and 2.9% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Outpatient surgeries increased 1.5% on a consolidated basis and 0.4% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Emergency department visits increased 0.8% on a consolidated basis and 0.9% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the provision for doubtful accounts increased $124 million, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $67 million and $185 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. 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 31.7% for the third quarter of 2013, compared to 30.5% for the third quarter of 2012. Same facility uninsured admissions increased 10.1% and same facility uninsured emergency room visits increased 2.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Electronic health record incentive income declined $56 million, from $131 million in the third quarter of 2012 to $75 million in the third quarter of 2013. Interest expense increased $12 million to $458 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 from $446 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in the average debt balance.

Cash flows from operating activities increased $245 million from $655 million for the third quarter of 2012 to $900 million for the third quarter of 2013. The increase is primarily related to the combined impact of favorable changes in working capital items of $136 million and a decline of $51 million in income taxes.

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.

Revenue/Volume Trends (continued)

Revenues increased 4.9% from $8.062 billion in the third quarter of 2012 to $8.456 billion in the third quarter of 2013. 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 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 revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. Our revenues from our third-party payers, the uninsured and other revenues for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are summarized in the following tables (dollars in millions):

Revenue/Volume Trends (continued)

Medicare revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were impacted by two adjustments to Medicare revenues (the Rural Floor Provision Settlement which increased revenues by approximately $271 million and the implementation of revised Supplemental Security Income ratios which reduced revenues by approximately $83 million). The net effect of these Medicare adjustments was an increase of $188 million to revenues. The net effect of these adjustments (and related expenses) added $170 million to income before income taxes, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Consolidated and same facility revenue per equivalent admission increased 3.9% and 3.4%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility equivalent admissions increased 0.9% and 1.1%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility admissions increased 0.5% and 0.7%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgeries increased 1.5% and 0.4%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries increased 3.4% and 2.9%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 0.8% and 0.9%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012.

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 September 30, 2013, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 92% of the $5.525 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 adjustments to revenues amounts, related to uninsured accounts, for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 follows (dollars in millions):

At September 30, 2013, we had 75 hospitals in the states of Texas and Florida. During the third quarter of 2013, 55% of our admissions and 46% of our revenues were generated by these hospitals. Uninsured admissions in Texas and Florida represented 63% of our uninsured admissions during the third quarter of 2013.

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. In 2011, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“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. The Texas Waiver Program includes two primary components: the continuation of an indigent care component and the establishment of a Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (“DSRIP”) component. Initiatives under the DSRIP program are designed to provide incentive payments to hospitals and other providers for their investments in delivery system reforms that increase access to health care, improve the quality of care and enhance the health of patients and families they serve. 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.

Revenue/Volume Trends (continued)

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 $124 million ($38 million DSRIP related and $86 million indigent care related) and $110 million (all indigent care related) during the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $275 million ($50 million DSRIP related and $225 million indigent care related) and $350 million (all indigent care related) during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, 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. 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 for eligible hospitals and professionals that adopt and meaningfully use certified 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.

We recognized $75 million ($48 million Medicare and $27 million Medicaid) and $131 million ($52 million Medicare and $79 million Medicaid) of electronic health record incentive income during the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively. We recognized $166 million ($139 million Medicare and $27 million Medicaid) and $256 million ($174 million Medicare and $82 million Medicaid) of electronic health record incentive income during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

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 recognizing the expenses may not correlate with the receipt of the incentive payments and the recognition of revenues. We incurred $26 million and $24 million during the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $85 million and $61 million during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, of operating expenses to implement our certified EHR technology and meet meaningful use.

For 2013, we estimate EHR incentive income will be recognized in the range of $200 million to $225 million and that related EHR operating expenses will be in the range of $120 million to $140 million. Actual incentive payments and EHR operating expenses could vary from these estimates due to certain factors such as availability of federal funding for both Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments and our ability to continue to demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology. The failure of our ability to continue to demonstrate meaningful use of EHR technology could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations.

Results of Operations (continued)

Quarters Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Net income attributable to HCA Holdings, Inc. totaled $365 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013 compared to $360 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012. Third quarter 2012 results include net gains on sales of facilities of $7 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 463.6 million shares and 459.5 million shares for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

For the third quarter of 2013, consolidated and same facility admissions increased 0.5% and 0.7%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgical volumes increased 1.5% and 0.4%, respectively, during the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries increased 3.4% and 2.9%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 0.8% and 0.9%, respectively, during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Revenues before provision for doubtful accounts increased 5.8% for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012. Provision for doubtful accounts increased $124 million from $831 million in the third quarter of 2012 to $955 million in the third quarter of 2013. 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 $67 million and $185 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012. 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 31.7% for the third quarter of 2013, compared to 30.5% for the third quarter of 2012. At September 30, 2013, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 92% of the $5.525 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 4.9% primarily due to the combined impact of revenue per equivalent admission growth of 3.9% and a 0.9% increase in equivalent admissions for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012. Same facility revenues increased 4.5% due to the combined impact of a 3.4% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 1.1% increase in same facility equivalent admissions for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012.

Salaries and benefits, as a percentage of revenues, were 46.3% in the third quarter of 2013 and 46.9% in the third quarter of 2012. Salaries and benefits per equivalent admission increased 2.6% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012. Same facility labor rate increases averaged 2.0% for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012.

Supplies, as a percentage of revenues, were 17.2% in the third quarter of 2013 and 17.1% in the third quarter of 2012. Supply cost per equivalent admission increased 4.9% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 8.0% for medical devices, 0.6% for pharmacy supplies and 5.5% for general medical and surgical items in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012.

Other operating expenses, as a percentage of revenues, declined to 18.5% in the third quarter of 2013 from 18.7% in the third quarter of 2012. 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. Provisions for losses related to professional liability risks were $78 million and $59 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

We recognized $75 million ($48 million Medicare and $27 million Medicaid) and $131 million ($52 million Medicare and $79 million Medicaid) of electronic health record incentive income primarily related to Medicare incentives during the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $9 million and $6 million in the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization increased $26 million, from $417 million in the third quarter of 2012 to $443 million in the third quarter of 2013. The increase was related primarily to several construction projects being completed during the second and third quarters of 2013.

Interest expense increased from $446 million in the third quarter of 2012 to $458 million in the third quarter of 2013. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in the average debt balance. Our average debt balance was $28.177 billion for the third quarter of 2013 compared to $26.685 billion for the third quarter of 2012. The average effective interest rate for our long term debt declined from 6.6% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 to 6.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

During the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, we recorded net losses on sales of facilities of $1 million and net gains on sales of facilities of $7 million, respectively.

The effective tax rates were 39.1% and 38.2% for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The effective tax rate computations exclude net income attributable to noncontrolling interests as it relates to consolidated partnerships.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $95 million for the third quarter of 2012 to $102 million for the third quarter of 2013. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests related primarily to growth in operating results of hospital joint ventures in two Texas markets.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Net income attributable to HCA Holdings, Inc. totaled $1.132 billion, or $2.44 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $1.291 billion, or $2.81 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The first nine months of 2013 results include net losses on sales of facilities of $13 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and a loss on retirement of debt of $17 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. The first nine months of 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. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 463.1 million shares and 458.8 million shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

For the first nine months of 2013, consolidated and same facility admissions increased 0.6% and 0.7%, respectively, compared to the first nine months of 2012. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgical volumes declined 0.1% and 1.3%, respectively, during the first nine months of 2013, compared to the first nine

months of 2012. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries each increased 0.1% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the first nine months of 2012. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 1.7% and 1.8%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Revenues before provision for doubtful accounts increased 3.1% for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012. Provision for doubtful accounts increased $66 million from $2.666 billion in the first nine months of 2012 to $2.732 billion in the first nine months of 2013. 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 $238 million and $894 million, respectively, during the first nine months of 2013, compared to the first nine months of 2012. 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 31.0% for the first nine months of 2013, compared to 29.3% for the first nine months of 2012. At September 30, 2013, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 92% of the $5.525 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 3.1% due to the combined impact of revenue per equivalent admission growth of 2.6% and an increase of 0.5% in equivalent admissions for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012. Same facility revenues increased 2.9% due to the combined impact of a 2.3% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 0.5% increase in same facility equivalent admissions for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012.

Salaries and benefits, as a percentage of revenues, were 46.1% in the first nine months of 2013 and 45.7% in the first nine months of 2012. Salaries and benefits per equivalent admission increased 3.5% in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012. Same facility labor rate increases averaged 1.9% for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012.

Supplies, as a percentage of revenues, were 17.4% in the first nine months of 2013 and 17.2% in the first nine months of 2012. Supply cost per equivalent admission increased 4.0% in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 5.8% for medical devices and 5.4% for general medical and surgical items and declined 0.8% for pharmacy supplies in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012.

Other operating expenses, as a percentage of revenues, declined to 18.1% in the first nine months of 2013 from 18.2% in the first nine months of 2012. 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. Provisions for losses related to professional liability risks were $237 million and $230 million for the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

We recognized $166 million ($139 million Medicare and $27 million Medicaid) and $256 million ($174 million Medicare and $82 million Medicaid) of electronic health record incentive income primarily related to Medicare incentives during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $29 million and $26 million in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Results of Operations (continued)

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 (continued)

Depreciation and amortization increased $38 million, from $1.254 billion in the first nine months of 2012 to $1.292 billion in the first nine months of 2013.

Interest expense increased from $1.336 billion in the first nine months of 2012 to $1.392 billion in the first nine months of 2013 due to an increase in the average debt balance. Our average debt balance was $28.385 billion for the first nine months of 2013 compared to $27.211 billion for the first nine months of 2012. The average effective interest rate for our long term debt was 6.6% for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

During the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, we recorded net losses on sales of facilities of $13 million and net gains on sales of facilities of $4 million, respectively.

During March 2013, we redeemed all $201 million aggregate principal amount of our 9 7 / 8 % senior secured second lien notes due 2017, at a redemption price of 104.938% of the principal amount. The pretax loss on retirement of debt related to this redemption was $17 million.

The effective tax rates were 38.3% and 37.1% for the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The effective tax rate computations exclude net income attributable to noncontrolling interests as it relates to consolidated partnerships.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $288 million for the first nine months of 2012 to $310 million for the first nine months of 2013. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests related primarily to growth in operating results of hospital joint ventures in two Texas markets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.454 billion in the first nine months of 2013 compared to $2.912 billion in the first nine months of 2012. The $458 million decline in cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012 related primarily to a decline in net income of $137 million and a negative impact from changes in working capital items of $330 million. The combined interest payments and net tax payments in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012 were $1.940 billion and $1.832 billion, respectively. Working capital totaled $2.352 billion at September 30, 2013 and $1.591 billion at December 31, 2012.

Cash used in investing activities was $1.674 billion in the first nine months of 2013 compared to $1.340 billion in the first nine months of 2012. Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures were $1.347 billion in the first nine months of 2013 and $1.268 billion in the first nine months of 2012. During the first nine months of 2013, we expended $278 million for the acquisition of The Outsource Group and $146 million for three hospitals that became effective October 1, 2013. We also expended $39 million to acquire nonhospital health care facilities during the first nine months of 2013. We expended $58 million for the acquisition of a hospital facility and $109 million to acquire nonhospital health care facilities during the first nine months of 2012. Capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, are expected to approximate $2.0 billion in 2013. At September 30, 2013, there were projects under construction which had estimated additional costs to complete and equip over the next five years of approximately $1.60 billion. We expect to finance capital expenditures with internally generated and borrowed funds. We received $31 million and $17 million from sales of health care entities during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. We received net cash flows from our investments of $97 million and $73 million in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

Cash used in financing activities totaled $1.001 billion during the first nine months of 2013 compared to $1.473 billion during the first nine months of 2012. During the first nine months of 2013, net cash flows used in financing activities included net debt repayments of $670 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $308 million, distributions to stockholders of $13 million and receipts of $70 million of income tax benefits for certain items (primarily related to employee exercises of stock options). During the first nine months of 2012, net cash flows used in financing activities included net debt repayments of $214 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $303 million, distributions to stockholders of $983 million and receipts of $82 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 $28.377 billion at September 30, 2013. Our interest expense was $1.392 billion for the first nine months of 2013 and $1.336 billion for the first nine months of 2012. The increase in interest expense was due to the increase in the average debt balance.

In addition to cash flows from operations, available sources of capital include amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities ($2.334 billion and $2.594 billion available as of September 30, 2013 and October 31, 2013, respectively) and anticipated access to public and private debt markets.

During March 2013, we redeemed all $201 million aggregate principal amount of our 9 7 / 8 % senior secured second lien notes due 2017, at a redemption price of 104.938% of the principal amount. The pretax loss on retirement of debt related to this redemption was $17 million.

Investments of our professional liability insurance subsidiaries, to maintain statutory equity and pay claims, totaled $465 million and $570 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. An insurance subsidiary maintained net reserves for professional liability risks of $313 million and $352 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Our facilities are insured by a 100% 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 $949 million and $896 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Claims payments, net of reinsurance recoveries, during the next 12 months are expected to approximate $321 million. We estimate that approximately $258 million of the expected net claim payments during the next 12 months will relate to claims subject to the self-insured retention.

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 100% owned insurance subsidiaries were $462 million and $3 million, respectively, at September 30, 2013. These investments are carried at fair value, with changes in unrealized gains and losses being recorded as adjustments to other comprehensive income. At September 30, 2013, we had a net unrealized gain of $11 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 100% owned insurance subsidiaries could be impaired by the inability to access the capital markets. Should the 100% owned insurance subsidiaries require significant amounts of cash in excess of normal cash requirements to

43

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. We may be required to recognize other-than-temporary impairments on our investment securities 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 $3.545 billion of long-term debt at September 30, 2013 was subject to variable rates of interest, while the remaining balance in long-term debt of $24.832 billion at September 30, 2013 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 was 6.6% for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

The estimated fair value of our total long-term debt was $29.492 billion at September 30, 2013. 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 $35 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 the European term loan expose us to market risks associated with foreign currencies. In order to mitigate the currency exposure related to debt service obligations under the European term loan, we have entered into a cross currency swap agreement. 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 this agreement is considered low because the swap agreement is with a creditworthy financial institution.

IRS Examinations

We expect the IRS Examination Division will begin an audit of HCA Holdings, Inc.’s 2011 federal income tax return in 2014.

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

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 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, 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.

As initially disclosed in 2010, 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. In August 2012, HCA, along with non-HCA hospitals across the country subject to the DOJ’s review, received from the DOJ a proposed framework for resolving the DOJ’s review of ICDs. The Company is cooperating in the review. 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.

In July 2012, the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami requested information on reviews assessing the medical necessity of interventional cardiology services provided at any Company facility (other than peer reviews). The Company is cooperating with the government’s request and is currently producing

49

medical records associated with particular reviews at eight hospitals, located primarily in Florida. At this time, we cannot predict what effect, if any, the request or any resulting claims, including any potential claims under the federal FCA, other statutes, regulations or laws, could have on the Company.

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 sought to include as a class all persons who acquired the Company’s stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s Registration Statement issued in connection with the March 9, 2011 initial public offering. The lawsuit asserted 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 asserted a claim under Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 against the same members of the board of directors. The action alleged various deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement. 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 were filed in the same federal court on November 16, 2011 and December 12, 2011, respectively. All three of the cases were consolidated. On May 3, 2012, the court appointed New England Teamsters & Trucking Industry Pension Fund as Lead Plaintiff for the consolidated action. On July 13, 2012, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint asserting claims under Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) 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 and Hercules Holdings II, LLC, a majority shareholder of the Company at the time of the initial public offering. The consolidated complaint alleges deficiencies in the Company’s disclosures in the Registration Statement and Prospectus relating to: (1) the accounting for the Company’s 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 Medicare and Medicaid revenue growth rates. The Company and other defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint on September 11, 2012. The Court granted the motion in part on May 28, 2013. The action is proceeding to discovery on the remaining claims.

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 were consolidated in the Middle District of Tennessee and stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions. The state derivative action had also been stayed pending developments in the shareholder class actions, but that stay has expired. The plaintiff in the state derivative action subsequently filed an amended complaint on September 9, 2013 that added additional allegations made in the shareholder class actions. The Company has filed a motion to again stay the state derivative action pending developments in the class action but the Court has not yet acted on that motion. On September 24, 2013, an additional state derivative action, Steinberg v. Bracken, et al., was filed in Tennessee state court in the Davidson County Circuit Court. This action against our board of directors is substantially similar to the earlier filed state derivative action and the Company is attempting to consolidate the two state actions.

Health Midwest Litigation

In October 2009, the Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City, a nonprofit health foundation, filed suit against HCA Inc. in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri and alleged that HCA did not fund the level of capital expenditures and uncompensated care agreed to in connection with HCA’s purchase of hospitals

from Health Midwest in 2003. The central issue in the case was whether HCA’s construction of new hospitals counted towards its $450 million five-year capital commitments. In addition, the plaintiff alleged that HCA did not make its required capital expenditures in a timely fashion. On January 24, 2013, the Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and awarded at least $162 million. The Court also ordered a court-supervised accounting of HCA’s capital expenditures, as well as of expenditures on charity and uncompensated care during the ten years following the purchase. Should the accounting fail to satisfy the Court concerning HCA’s compliance with its capital and charity care commitments, the amount of the judgment award could substantially increase. The Court also indicated it would award plaintiff attorneys fees, which the parties have stipulated are about $12 million. HCA recorded $175 million of legal claim costs in the fourth quarter of 2012 related to this ruling. The accounting for HCA’s capital expenditures and charity and uncompensated care is ongoing and will likely not be concluded before the end of 2013. HCA plans to appeal the trial court’s ruling on the breach of contract claim and order for the accounting once the trial court rules on the accounting and enters final judgment.
