Dr. Jianyu Yang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Concord Medical, commented, "Changes in the policies regarding the hospital partners have further led to the closure of our centers, which put pressure on our operating income in the first half of 2018 and presented us with challenges. Nevertheless, our network business still has new demands. Within the past six months, we developed new centers with reliable partners in suitable locations, including the co-established cooperative radiotherapy center at PKU Healthcare Zibo Hospital and the comprehensive management cooperative center for the departments of radiotherapy and nuclear medicine at PKU International Hospital. Based on our extensive experiences in radiotherapy and imaging diagnosis over years, we believe our network business would continue to provide Chinese cancer patients with high-quality diagnosis and treatment services."
"Although the revenue from the network business shrinks, our self-operating independent cancer hospital business is steadily growing and developing. The revenue from the hospital business in the first half of 2018 had a year-on-year increase of 160%, while its percentage of the Company's total revenue increased from 5% last year to 25% this year."
"The cumulative number of patient visits within the first half of 2018 at our independent cancer center in Shanghai had a good increase, compared with the number of the first half of 2017. Shanghai Concord Cancer Center is an outpatient department that integrates imaging diagnosis, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy. At present this center has started to develop joint consultation with MD Anderson Cancer Center in the United States and our Concord International Hospital in Singapore, offering international diagnosis and treatment plans for patients with certain demands."
"The revenue of the Concord International Hospital in Singapore in the first half of 2018 had a dramatical increase of 118%, compared with that of the same period in the last year, while the net loss had also decreased by 41%, compared with that in last year. As for operational data, the number of patients visits in surgery, radiotherapy, and internal medicine has been improved in Concord International Hospital in Singapore. Among them, the number of surgical patient visits was 359 in the first half of 2018, a 122% increase from 162 in the first half of 2017."
"In general, 2018 is the start of a full upgrade of the Company's business. Our new business mode that is focusing on self-established and operating cancer hospitals is steadily growing and developing, which relieves the influence of adverse impacts on one hand, and lays a solid foundation for our future development on the other. We have high hopes and firmly believe that we can provide good-quality and efficient medical services for more cancer patients in the future."

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), Concord Medical uses certain non-GAAP measures. The Company presents certain of its financial information that is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense. The Company believes excluding share-based compensation expense from its GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors to assess and analyze the Company's core operating results, as such expense is not directly attributable to the underlying performance of the Company's business operations and do not impact its current cash earnings. Concord Medical also believes these non-GAAP measures excluding share-based compensation expense are important in helping investors to understand the Company's current financial performance and future prospects and to compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis. In addition, Concord Medical also presents the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined in this announcement as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation expenses and other adjustments. Other adjustments include foreign exchange gain, gain from disposal of property, plant and equipment and other income. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the impact of items that the Company does not consider to be indicative of the performance of the network business and hospital business. The Company believes investors will similarly use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the key metrics to evaluate its financial performance and to compare its current operating results with corresponding historical periods and with other companies in the healthcare services industry. The presentation of these additional measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies. The non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to GAAP measures in the attached financial information.
