Summary · why it matters

In the first quarter of 2026, USPI generated $484 million in adjusted EBITDA, up 6.1% year over year, with same-facility revenues rising 5.3% and double-digit growth in outpatient joint replacements. Tenet invested $125 million during the quarter to acquire seven ambulatory surgery centers and open three de novo centers, completing nearly half of its planned annual investment. The company reaffirmed its full-year guidance, reflecting confidence in USPI's long-term trajectory. Peers Surgery Partners and HCA Healthcare are also expanding their outpatient surgery networks to meet rising demand.
