| And we're also feeling good about Sacramento growth |
| We continue to see strong results across our people, service, and quality pillars, and we'll continue to invest in the people and resources necessary to further strengthen quality and compliance in each of our centers |
| It further demonstrates incremental progress in our broader transformation plan to accelerate responsible growth while restoring operating margin lost during the regulatory sanction period |
| We remain focused on the actions that are unlocking both near-term and long-term value, and believe it will translate into both enhanced competitive differentiation in the marketplace, as well as improved financial performance |
| While it is still early in our margin improvement initiatives, we continue to track to our internal targets and are pleased with the progress we have made so far this fiscal year |
| As a percentage of revenue, center level contribution margin increased to 17.8% compared to 15.3% in the first quarter, reflecting an improvement in the quality of our earnings in our centers |
| Participant net enrolment growth for the quarter was solid at 195, which continues to strengthen our confidence in the value proposition we are delivering |
| One new area of focus in the last quarter is ensuring we have the highest performing supportive housing network from a quality, compliance and cost perspective |
| We're improving the business every quarter |
| With half our fiscal year behind us, we're pleased with our progress and remain laser-focused on exiting fiscal '24 with solid earnings momentum |
| We've also observed meaningful improvement this quarter in areas such as reduced end-of-life costs and contract transportation costs |
| As I mentioned last quarter, we have a great team, confidence in our plan and it continues to come down to consistent execution |
| At the same time, it's an example of a market where, the demand is probably a bit larger than what's getting processed through the funnel and we are working closely on that issue, but still it's leading to responsible growth in Colorado and we're feeling really good about it |
| In the aggregate, we're trending ahead of internal targets on most initiatives fiscal year to date with strong progress in areas such as inpatient admissions and skilled short-stay utilization |
| Separately, we continue to see improvements in reducing external provider costs as our portfolio of clinical value initiatives mature |
| We are excited for the opportunity to serve more seniors in more geographies over the next several months while also increasing our overall portfolio capacity by approximately 30% once all of these centers are open, which we believe will be a meaningful driver of growth in the near term and represent significant uplift in embedded earnings long-term |
| In summary, we believe we are improving the business every quarter, and I again want to thank my 2,100 InnovAge colleagues nationally who are working tirelessly to make this wonderful program a reality for participants every single day |
| We have seen the benefits of the foundational changes we've made in every center over the last two years to provide high quality care |
| We work closely with our regulators on their audits and conduct our own audits in each center every month, and we've consistently seen a clear positive trend line |
| And more times than not, we're certainly able to achieve that and keep that individual in the funnel and get them access to the services that they need |
| Taken together, we believe these new centers, along with our pending de novo center in Downing, demonstrate our ability to augment existing center growth with cost-effective expansions |
| So in many ways, Sacramento is a new market as we think about the ramp and we're really pleased with how the team is doing there |
| There's a lot of opportunity and we feel pretty good about our offering and we've got a great team on the ground and we've got a grand opening scheduled I think on March 03rd, 04th, excuse me and so we've got a great opportunity just to introduce that product to the community and we're feeling really good about it |
| In closing, I want to reiterate Patrick's comments, as we believe we are continuing to make improvements to the business every quarter |
| We also remain confident with regard to our expansion plans |
| We continue to see strong demand for our integrated solution that allows seniors to stay in their homes and communities and out of nursing homes |
| This demand is most evident in the sequential increase in total sales qualified leads, which is up approximately 11% from the prior quarter |
| We just chose not to break out individual ones, but that gave us a good boost going into the back half of the year |
| We're really excited about it |
| To state the positive, we're finding more eligible participants interested in joining InnovAge than were currently enrolling today |

| For the second quarter, we recorded negative cash flow from operations of $9.3 million, and we had $1.6 million in capital expenditures, excluding the purchase price of Concerto PACE |
| While we are seeing aggregate enrolment consistent with our expectations, we continue to observe challenges in select markets which have resulted in enrolment processing delays, in part due to Medicaid redetermination |
| I think what Ben pointed out is in California, we came in below what we had targeted |
| Of note, we anticipate these centers will add modest operating losses to our fully consolidated EBITDA near term as we work through the maturity curve |
| However, lengthy delays can result in prospects evaluating other options and can translate into missed enrolment opportunities |
| There's still a lot of noise, if you will, in the rate setting process that I think is a little bit of the lingering impacts of the data set related to COVID |
| And then I wanted to follow up and I think the theme of some administrative delays kind of at the state level, that's maybe creating a little bit of a headwind for enrolment trends |
| DHCS notified us two weeks ago that it had identified deficiencies |
| It looks like there's a $25 million headwind on deferred revenue year to date |
| Another factor that came into play here was a reduction in rates in California, which we're going to see in the back half of the year |
| De novo losses for the second quarter were $2.2 million, and related to our acquisition of Concerto PACE, which occurred on December 01, in our centers in Florida |
| So, it's having an unexpected impact in the back half of this fiscal year |
| Cost of care, excluding depreciation and amortization of $54.3 million decreased 1.7% compared to the first quarter |
| At the same time, we're dealing with a very vulnerable population and most of the individuals that are looking to access PACE are in need of rather immediate services and so delays with the processing of applications at the state can and do result in people making alternative choices |
| And then I'll just tell me, I may come in on the other component, right? The proposed 2025 rate would suggest another sort of kind of tough year on that front |
| This compares to $1.6 million of de novo losses in the first quarter |
| This quarter, we saw a sequential decrease in G&A of approximately $3.6 million |
| We recorded a net loss per share of $0.03 on both a basic and diluted basis, and our weighted average share count was approximately 135.9 million shares for the quarter on both a basic and fully diluted basis |
| We probably under clubbed the implementation complexity to get that rolled out on the timeline that we thought, it as a result that CDI impact is delayed later in the year and I think that's the kind of thing that Ben's hitting on by suggesting we're going to sort of stick with our guidance because there's a lot of puts and takes |
| Net loss was $3.8 million, compared to net loss of $11 million in the first quarter |
