[Q&A Highlights]
Question 1: Can you talk a little bit about the dispensing gross margin? Are there any specific drugs driving this?
Answer: Dispensary margin improved due to better drug procurement and incremental rebates. The focus is on Part D medications, primarily oral specialty or self-injectables.

Question 2: Any thoughts on the potential impact of drug pricing reform, the Inflation Reduction Act, and most favored nation comments?
Answer: The Oncology Institute expects a net positive impact from drug pricing reform, benefiting capitated margins and potentially providing rebates for fee-for-service practices.

Question 3: Are there any specific drugs that might impact your business significantly in the back half of the year or into 2026?
Answer: No significant risks from specific drugs are foreseen. The Oncology Institute's diverse drug portfolio mitigates such risks.

Question 4: Can you talk more about the pressure on the gross patient service margin and the timeline for improvement?
Answer: The pressure is primarily related to new capitation contracts. Margins are expected to improve as patients transition to The Oncology Institute's care model over the next three months.

Question 5: What was your observation on oncology spend in Q2 2025, and can you manage costs at a relatively low level in the second half of 2025?
Answer: The Oncology Institute saw stable MLR due to narrow networks and value-based therapeutic decision-making, despite overall increases in drug costs.

Question 6: Can you comment on the timeline for recognizing revenue from the Elevance contract in Florida?
Answer: Revenue recognition for the Elevance contract is expected to start in Q4 2025.

Question 7: Have you noticed any impact from PBMs shifting infusion drugs from clinic to their own pharmacy benefit coverage?
Answer: Shifting drugs from Part B to Part D would be net positive for The Oncology Institute, reducing risk costs.

Question 8: Can you provide details on the new patients from contracts announced in the first half and those coming online in the second half?
Answer: Growth is primarily outside California, with higher utilization rates and PMPMs. Florida is expected to have around 100,000 Medicare Advantage lives by year-end.

Question 9: Can you explain the fully delegated risk arrangements?
Answer: Fully delegated risk arrangements involve The Oncology Institute taking risk for Part B oncology spend and managing utilization, network design, and claims adjudication for broader populations.
