Tenet Healthcare reported Q1 2026 net operating revenues of $5.4B (+2.8% YoY), with operating income of $1.3B (+37% YoY), driven by $413M contract termination revenue from the Conifer-CHI settlement.
Biggest Revenue Drivers
Total revenue: $5.4B+2.8% YoY
Higher patient volumes partially offset by less favorable payer mix; includes $413M revenue from contract termination.
Driven by 2025 and 2026 acquisitions, de novo development, and negotiated commercial rate increases; same-facility revenue growth of 5.3%.
Largest Expense Items
Annual merit increases and higher employee benefits costs, partially offset by lower incentive compensation and contract labor costs.
Higher patient volumes, partially offset by cost-efficiency measures including product standardization and contract management.
Increased medical fees and professional consulting costs, partially offset by lower malpractice expense.

Margins: Operating income margin expanded to 24.1% in Q1 2026 from 18.1% in Q1 2025, primarily due to $413M contract termination revenue and strong operational performance.
