EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A ("Amendment No. 1") is being filed in order to reflect the adjustments set forth below to adjust Premier, Inc.'s ("Premier" or the "Company") income tax accounting for the December 2, 2016 acquisition of the remaining 50% ownership interest of Innovatix, LLC not previously owned by the Company. This Amendment No. 1 amends and restates in their entirety the following items of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 10, 2017 (the "Original Form 10-Q"):
•
Part I. Financial Information:
◦
Item 1. Financial Statements;
◦
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; and
◦
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
•
Part II. Other Information - Item 6. Exhibits.
The Company has also updated the signature page, the certifications of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, and the financial statements formatted in Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) in Exhibits 101.
No other sections were changed, but for the convenience of the reader, this Amendment No. 1 restates in its entirety, as amended, the Company's Original Form 10-Q. This Amendment No. 1 is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-Q and does not modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement described below. Readers should refer to the documents the Company has filed with or furnished to the SEC subsequent to the date of the Company's Original Form 10-Q for updated information.
Prior to December 2, 2016, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiary, Premier Supply Chain Improvement, Inc., held a 50% ownership interest in Innovatix, LLC, which was accounted for under the equity method and classified as a partnership for tax purposes. On December 2, 2016, the Company acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest of Innovatix, LLC. In connection with the acquisition, the Company’s historical 50% investment was remeasured under business combination accounting rules to fair value, resulting in a one-time gain of $204.8 million. At the time of the acquisition, a deferred tax liability of $95.8 million and a corresponding net deferred income tax expense of $95.8 million associated with the one-time gain were recorded by the Company. The Company has determined that a portion of the deferred tax liability and a portion of the deferred tax expense associated with the $204.8 million gain should not have been recorded.
Accordingly, the Company determined it necessary to adjust the Original Form 10-Q to remove the incorrectly recorded deferred tax liability and instead record deferred tax liabilities associated with the book and tax bases differences of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Based on the Company’s determination, the net effect of this adjustment increased goodwill by $42.9 million, decreased deferred tax liabilities by $34.3 million, decreased deferred tax assets by $10.5 million and increased income tax expense by $0.8 million and decreased income tax expense by $66.7 million as of and for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017, respectively. Correspondingly, net income has been adjusted lower by $0.8 million and has been adjusted higher by $66.7 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017, respectively.

PREMIER, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
Premier, Inc. ("Premier" or the "Company") is a publicly-held, for-profit Delaware corporation primarily owned by hospitals, health systems and other healthcare organizations (such owners of Premier are referred to herein as "member owners") located in the United States and by public stockholders. The Company, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, is a leading healthcare performance improvement company that unites hospitals, health systems, physicians and other healthcare providers to improve and innovate in the clinical, financial and operational areas of their businesses to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving healthcare industry.
The Company's business model and solutions are designed to provide its members access to scale efficiencies, spread the cost of their development, provide actionable intelligence derived from anonymized data in the Company's data warehouse, mitigate the risk of innovation and disseminate best practices that will help the Company's member organizations succeed in their transformation to higher quality and more cost-effective healthcare.
The Company, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, delivers its integrated platform of solutions through two business segments: supply chain services and performance services. See Note 16 - Segments for further information related to the Company's reportable business segments. The supply chain services segment includes one of the largest healthcare group purchasing organizations ("GPOs") in the United States and integrated pharmacy and direct sourcing activities. The performance services segment includes one of the largest informatics and advisory services businesses in the United States focused on healthcare providers. The Company's software as a service ("SaaS") informatics products utilize its comprehensive data set to provide actionable intelligence to its members, enabling them to benchmark, analyze and identify areas of improvement across the three main categories of cost management, quality and safety, and population health management. The performance services segment also includes the Company's technology-enabled performance improvement collaboratives, advisory services, government services and insurance management services.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Services, LLC ("Premier GP"), held an approximate 36% and 32% general partner interest in Premier Healthcare Alliance, L.P. ("Premier LP") at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. Premier LP's limited partners held an approximate 64% and 68% ownership interest at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. The limited partners' interest is reflected as redeemable limited partners' capital in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the limited partners' proportionate share of income in Premier LP is reflected within net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Premier LP in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and within comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interest in Premier LP in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
At March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the member owners owned approximately 64% and 68%, respectively, of the Company's combined Class A and Class B common stock (the "common stock") through their ownership of Class B common stock. During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the member owners exchanged 3.9 million Class B common units and associated Class B common shares for an equal number of Class A common shares, and exchanged 3.8 million Class B common units and associated Class B common shares for cash as part of their quarterly exchange rights under an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") entered into by the member owners in connection with the completion of a series of transactions (the "Reorganization") concurrent with the consummation of the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO," and together with the Reorganization, the "Reorganization and IPO") on October 1, 2013 (see Note 11 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share). During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, approximately 3.8 million Class B common units were retired in connection with the member owner exchange for cash and approximately 3.9 million Class B common units were contributed to Premier LP and converted to Class A common units which remain outstanding. Correspondingly, approximately 7.7 million Class B common shares were retired during the same period.
Refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 (the "2016 Annual Report") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on August 25, 2016 for further discussion of the Exchange Agreement and Reorganization and IPO. At March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the public investors, which may include member owners that have received shares of Class A common stock in connection with previous exchanges of their Class B common units and associated

13


Class B common shares for an equal number of Class A common shares, owned approximately 36% and 32%, respectively, of the Company's outstanding common stock through their ownership of Class A common stock.
Variable Interest Entities
Premier LP is a variable interest entity ("VIE") as the limited partners do not have the ability to exercise a substantive removal right with respect to the general partner. The Company does not hold a majority interest but, through Premier GP, has the exclusive power and authority to manage the business and affairs of Premier LP, to make all decisions with respect to driving the economic performance of Premier LP, and has both an obligation to absorb losses and a right to receive benefits. As such, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the operations of Premier LP under the Variable Interest Model. See Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies for further discussion of recently adopted accounting standards related to VIEs.
The assets and liabilities of Premier LP at March 31, 2017 (restated) and June 30, 2016 consisted of the following (in thousands):

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring

14


adjustments. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained in the 2016 Annual Report.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis, including estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and equipment, stock-based compensation, payables under tax receivable agreements, values of investments not publicly traded, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, uncertain income taxes, deferred revenue, future cash flows associated with asset impairments, values of put and call rights and the allocation of purchase prices. These estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Restatement of Previously Reported Financial Information
Prior to December 2, 2016, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiary, Premier Supply Chain Improvement, Inc. ("PSCI"), held a 50% ownership interest in Innovatix, LLC ("Innovatix"), which was accounted for under the equity method and classified as a partnership for tax purposes. On December 2, 2016, the Company acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest of Innovatix. In connection with the acquisition, the Company’s historical 50% investment was remeasured under business combination accounting rules to fair value, resulting in a one-time gain of $204.8 million. At the time of the acquisition, a deferred tax liability of $95.8 million and a corresponding deferred income tax expense of $95.8 million associated with the one-time gain were recorded by the Company and are reflected in the previously issued financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 10, 2017 (the "Original Form 10-Q").
Subsequent to the issuance of the financial statements included in the Company's Original Form 10-Q, the Company adjusted its income tax accounting for this acquisition. The Company determined that a portion of the deferred tax liability and a portion of the deferred tax expense associated with the $204.8 million gain that were reflected in the previously issued financial statements should not have been recorded. Accordingly, the Company determined it necessary to adjust the Original Form 10-Q to restate the previously recorded deferred tax liability and deferred income tax expense, and record deferred tax liabilities associated with the book and tax bases differences of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The impact of these changes on selected financial amounts within the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements is summarized below:

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies as described in the 2016 Annual Report.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which is intended to simplify the accounting for employee share-based payments. The amendments in this updated guidance include changes to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of such share-based awards as either equity or liabilities and classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company early-adopted the standard effective July 1, 2016, using the prospective approach. Pursuant to the guidance, the Company recognized gross excess tax benefits of approximately $9.1 million ($3.6 million tax effected) during the three months ended September 30, 2016, which were fully offset by a valuation allowance at PHSI, the Company's consolidated subsidiary. No adjustments were made to prior periods, and the impact on prior periods would have been immaterial. All excess tax benefits related to share-based awards are reported as operating activities within the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, the Company calculated diluted earnings per share without consideration of any tax benefits in determining dilutive shares.
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements, which clarifies the SEC staff's position in ASU 2015-03 on presenting and measuring debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line-of-credit arrangements given the lack of guidance on this topic in ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-15 states that the SEC staff would "not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement." The Company adopted the standard effective July 1, 2016 using the retrospective approach. The guidance had no impact on the Company's accounting for debt issuance costs associated with its line of credit.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which effectively eliminated the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, modified the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, and affected the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs (particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships). The Company adopted the standard effective July 1, 2016 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not impact the Company's conclusions regarding consolidation or the consolidated financial statements other than providing additional disclosures around Premier's consolidation of Premier LP. As a result of ASU 2015-02, the Company no longer consolidates Premier LP under the presumption that the general partner controls a limited partnership but rather consolidates Premier LP under the Variable Interest Model. Premier LP meets the definition of a VIE as the limited partners do not have the ability to exercise a substantive removal right with respect to the general partner, Premier GP. Additionally, the Company, through

17


Premier GP, has the exclusive power and authority to manage the business and affairs of Premier LP, to make all decisions with respect thereto driving the economic performance of Premier LP, and has both an obligation to absorb losses and a right to receive benefits.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The guidance requires an entity to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. In addition, the guidance eliminates the requirement for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which removes the prohibition in ASC 740 against the immediate recognition of the current and deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. The guidance is intended to reduce the complexity of GAAP and diversity in practice related to the tax consequences of certain types of intra-entity asset transfers, particularly those involving intellectual property. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends the guidance in ASC 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of the ASU is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles on this topic. The ASU amendments add or clarify guidance on eight cash flow issues. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations of accounting for leasing arrangements. This guidance establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Entities will be required to recognize and measure leases as of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which is intended to provide users of financial statements with more useful information on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for certain amendments. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. This guidance will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2017. Upon transition, entities must disclose the nature of and reason for the accounting change. We do not expect the adoption of the new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance. The new standard requires revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services

18


are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The new standard allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption.
The FASB subsequently issued an amendment in ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, in August 2015 to defer the effective date of the new standard for all entities by one year. The new standard, as amended, will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption as of the original effective date for public entities will be permitted.
The FASB issued another amendment in ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, in March 2016 related to a third party providing goods or services to a customer. When another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, an entity is required to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide the specified good or service itself or to arrange for the good or service to be provided by a third party. If the entity provides the specific good or service itself, the entity acts as a principal. If an entity arranges for the good or service to be provided by a third party, the entity acts as an agent. The standard requires the principal to recognize revenue for the gross amount and the agent to recognize revenue for the amount of any fee or commission for which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the specified good or service to be provided. The new standard will be effective with ASU 2014-09.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which amends specific aspects of ASU 2014-09, including how to identify performance obligations and guidance related to licensing implementation. This amendment provides guidance on determining whether an entity's promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity's intellectual property or a right to access the entity's intellectual property. The amendment will be effective with ASU 2014-09.
In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which clarifies specific aspects of ASU 2014-09, clarifying how to identify performance obligations and guidance related to its promise in granting a license of intellectual property. This new standard provides guidance to allow entities to disregard items that are immaterial in the context of the contract, clarify when a promised good or service is separately identifiable and allow an entity to elect to account for the cost of shipping and handling performed after control of a good has been transferred to the customer as a fulfillment cost. The new standard also clarifies how an entity should evaluate the nature of its promise in granting a license of intellectual property to help determine whether it recognizes revenue over time or at a point in time and addresses how entities should consider license renewals and restrictions. The new standard will be effective with ASU 2014-09.
In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which clarifies specific aspects of ASU 2014-09, including allowing entities not to make quantitative disclosures about remaining performance obligations in certain cases and requiring entities that use any of the new or previously existing optional exemptions to expand their qualitative disclosures. The new standard also makes twelve other technical corrections and modifications to ASU 2014-09. The new standard will be effective with ASU 2014-09.
The new revenue recognition standards discussed above, as amended, will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the transition method that will be elected as well as the impact of the adoption of the new standards on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Additionally, we are evaluating the potential impacts on our revenue contracts and identifying appropriate changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support revenue recognition and disclosure requirements under the new standard.
(3) BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
Acquisition of Innovatix, LLC and Essensa Ventures, LLC
Prior to December 2, 2016, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiary, PSCI, held 50% of the membership interests in Innovatix, LLC ("Innovatix") (see Note 4 - Investments). On December 2, 2016, the Company, through PSCI, acquired from GNYHA Holdings, LLC (see Note 14 - Related Party Transactions) the remaining 50% ownership interest of Innovatix and 100% of the ownership interest in Essensa Ventures, LLC ("Essensa") for $325.0 million, of which $227.5 million in cash was paid at closing and $97.5 million in cash was paid on January 10, 2017.
The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on Innovatix's and Essensa's (i) cash on hand and cash equivalents, (ii) outstanding indebtedness and (iii) net working capital at closing. With regard to Innovatix, the purchase price adjustments set forth in (i), (ii)

19


and (iii) above are limited to 50% of the actual amount due to PSCI’s 50% ownership interest prior to the acquisition. Innovatix and Essensa are GPOs focused on serving nonacute and alternate site health care providers and other organizations throughout the United States.
In connection with the acquisition, the Company utilized its credit facility dated June 24, 2014, as amended on June 4, 2015 (the "Credit Facility") to fund the $325.0 million purchase price (see Note 8 - Debt), which is reflected within current portion of long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2017.
The Company incurred $0.4 million and $5.1 million of transaction costs related to this acquisition during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017, respectively. These transaction costs were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
The Company has accounted for the Innovatix and Essensa acquisition as a business combination whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired (see Note 6 - Intangible Assets, Net) and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary fair values. The purchase price allocation for the Innovatix and Essensa acquisition is preliminary and subject to changes in the fair value of working capital and valuation of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The acquisition resulted in the recognition of approximately $334.6 million of goodwill (see Note 7 - Goodwill) attributable to the anticipated profitability of Innovatix and Essensa. The acquisition was considered an asset acquisition for tax purposes, and accordingly, the Company expects a portion of the goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.
The preliminary fair values assigned to the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date were as follows (in thousands):

The acquisition provides the selling members an earn-out opportunity of up to $43.0 million based on Innovatix's and Essensa's Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the purchase agreement) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. In accordance with GAAP, the contingent consideration is recorded at fair value based on a probability-weighted approach including multiple earnings scenarios. This value is not indicative of a known amount to be paid. As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of the earn-out liability was $18.5 million (see Note 5 - Fair Value Measurements).
Certain executive officers of Innovatix and Essensa executed employment agreements that became effective upon the closing of the acquisition. The purchase agreement provides that in the event that Innovatix's and Essensa's Adjusted EBITDA exceeds agreed upon amounts, certain of those executive officers are entitled to receive a retention bonus payment of up to $3.0 million in the aggregate for which the Company will be reimbursed by GNYHA Holdings, LLC.
The Company's 50% ownership interest in Innovatix prior to the acquisition was accounted for under the equity method and had a carrying value of $13.2 million (see Note 4 - Investments). In connection with the acquisition, the Company's investment was remeasured under business combination accounting rules to a fair value of $218.0 million, resulting in a one-time gain of $204.8 million which was recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income as other income.
Pro forma results of operations for the acquisition have not been presented because the effects on revenue and net income were not material to our historic consolidated financial statements. The Company reports Innovatix and Essensa as part of its supply chain services segment.
Acquisition of Acro Pharmaceutical Services LLC and Community Pharmacy Services, LLC
On August 23, 2016, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiary, NS3 Health, LLC, acquired 100% of the membership interests of Acro Pharmaceutical Services LLC and Community Pharmacy Services, LLC (collectively, "Acro Pharmaceuticals") for $75.0 million in cash, subject to adjustment based on Acro Pharmaceuticals' (i) cash on hand, (ii) outstanding indebtedness and (iii) net working capital at closing. Acro Pharmaceuticals is a specialty pharmacy business that provides customized healthcare management solutions to clients. The acquisition was funded with available cash on hand.
The Company has accounted for the Acro Pharmaceuticals acquisition as a business combination whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary fair values. The purchase price allocation for the Acro Pharmaceuticals acquisition is preliminary and subject to changes in fair value of working capital and valuation of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The Acro Pharmaceuticals acquisition resulted in the recognition of approximately $35.7 million of goodwill (see Note 7 - Goodwill) attributable to the anticipated profitability of Acro Pharmaceuticals. The Acro Pharmaceuticals acquisition is considered an asset acquisition for tax purposes and accordingly, the Company expects the goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.
Pro forma results of operations for the acquisition have not been presented because the effects on revenue and net income were not material to our historic consolidated financial statements. The Company reports Acro Pharmaceuticals as part of its supply chain services segment.

The fair value of the Company's corporate debt securities and asset-backed securities, classified as Level 2, were valued using quoted prices for similar securities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar securities in markets that are not active.
Deferred compensation plan assets consisted of highly liquid mutual fund investments, which were classified as Level 1. The current portion of deferred compensation plan assets was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets ($5.5 million and $2.0 million at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Earn-out liabilities
Earn-out liabilities were incurred in connection with acquisitions of Inflow Health, LLC on October 1, 2015, Healthcare Insights, LLC ("HCI") on July 31, 2015 and Innovatix and Essensa on December 2, 2016 (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions). At March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the earn-out liabilities were classified as Level 3. The fair values of the earn-out liabilities were determined based on estimated future earnings and the probability of achieving them. The current portion of the earn-out liabilities was $18.5 million and $0.5 million at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, and was included in other liabilities, current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The long-term portion of the earn-out liabilities was $0.3 million and $3.7 million at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, and was included in other liabilities, noncurrent in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair values of the earn-out liabilities were recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
FFF put and call rights
Pursuant to a shareholders' agreement entered into in connection with the Company's equity investment in FFF on July 26, 2016 (see Note 4 - Investments), the majority shareholder of FFF obtained a put right ("FFF put right") that provides such shareholder

23

the right to sell all or any portion of its interest in FFF to the Company, which is exercisable beginning on the fourth anniversary of the investment closing date at a per share price equal to FFF's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") over the twelve calendar months prior to the purchase date multiplied by a market adjusted multiple, adjusted for any outstanding debt and cash and cash equivalents ("Equity Value per Share"). In addition, the shareholders' agreement provided the Company with a call right ("FFF call right") to purchase the remaining interest in FFF from the majority shareholder, which is exercisable at any time within 180 calendar days after the date of a Key Man Event (generally defined in the shareholders' agreement as the resignation, termination for cause, death or disability of the majority shareholder). In the event that the FFF put or call rights are exercised, the purchase price for the additional interest in FFF will be at a per share price equal to the Equity Value per Share.
The fair value of the FFF put and call rights were determined based on the Equity Value per Share calculation using unobservable inputs, which included the estimated FFF put and call rights' expiration dates, the forecast of FFF's EBITDA over the option period, forecasted movements in the overall market and the likelihood of a Key Man Event. Significant changes to the Equity Value per Share resulting from changes in the unobservable inputs could have a significant impact on the fair values of the FFF put and call rights.
The Company recorded the FFF put and call rights within long term other liabilities and long term other assets, respectively, within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Net changes in the fair value of the FFF put and call rights were recorded within other expense, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements
During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, no non-recurring fair value measurements were required related to the testing of goodwill and intangible assets for impairment. However, purchase price allocations required significant non-recurring Level 3 inputs. The preliminary fair values of the acquired intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of Acro Pharmaceuticals and Innovatix and Essensa were determined using the income approach (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions). 

24

The Company recognized a one-time gain of $204.8 million related to the remeasurement of the Company's 50% equity method investment in Innovatix to fair value upon acquisition of the remaining interest in Innovatix (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions). The fair value of the investment was calculated using a discounted cash flow model.
Financial Instruments For Which Fair Value Only is Disclosed
The fair values of non-interest bearing notes payable, classified as Level 2, were less than their carrying values by approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, based on assumed market interest rates of 2.6% and 2.1%, respectively.
Other Financial Instruments
The fair value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated carrying value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Credit Facility
Premier LP, along with its consolidated subsidiaries, PSCI and PHSI, as Co-Borrowers, Premier GP and certain domestic subsidiaries of Premier GP, as guarantors, entered into an unsecured Credit Facility, dated as of June 24, 2014 and amended on June 4, 2015. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of June 24, 2019. The Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $750.0 million with (i) a $25.0 million sub-facility for standby letters of credit and (ii) a $75.0 million sub-facility for swingline loans. The Credit Facility may be increased from time to time at the Company's request up to an aggregate additional amount of $250.0 million, subject to lender approval. The Credit Facility includes an unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of all obligations under the Credit Facility by Premier GP, certain domestic subsidiaries of Premier GP and future guarantors, if any. Premier, Inc. is not a guarantor under the Credit Facility.
At the Company's option, committed loans may be in the form of eurodollar rate loans ("Eurodollar Loans") or base rate loans ("Base Rate Loans"). Eurodollar Loans bear interest at the eurodollar rate (defined as the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus the Applicable Rate (defined as a margin based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility))). Base Rate Loans bear interest at the Base Rate (defined as the highest of the prime rate announced by the administrative agent, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or the one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%) plus the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate ranges from 1.125% to 1.750% for Eurodollar Loans and 0.125% to 0.750% for Base Rate Loans. At March 31, 2017, the interest rate for three-month Eurodollar Loans was 2.275% and the interest rate for the Base Rate Loans was 4.125%. The Co-Borrowers are required to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.250% per annum on the actual daily unused amount of commitments under the Credit Facility. At March 31, 2017, the commitment fee was 0.125%.
The Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on liens, indebtedness, fundamental changes, dispositions, restricted payments and investments, of which certain covenant calculations use EBITDA, a Non-GAAP financial measure. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, Premier GP is not permitted to allow its consolidated total leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) to exceed 3.00 to 1.00 for any period of four consecutive quarters. In addition, Premier GP must maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) of 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of every fiscal quarter. Premier GP was in compliance with all such covenants at March 31, 2017.
The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default including, among others, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults of any indebtedness or guarantees in excess of $30.0 million, bankruptcy and other insolvency events, judgment defaults in excess of $30.0 million, and the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the Credit Facility). If any event of default occurs and is continuing, the administrative agent under the Credit Facility may, with the consent, or shall, at the request, of the required lenders, terminate the commitments and declare all of the amounts owed under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable. The Company may prepay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility without premium or penalty provided that Co-Borrowers compensate the lenders for losses and expenses incurred as a result of the prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan, as defined in the Credit Facility.
Proceeds from borrowings under the Credit Facility may generally be used to finance ongoing working capital requirements, including permitted acquisitions, settlements of Class B unit exchanges under the Exchange Agreement (to the extent settled in cash) and other general corporate activities. During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company utilized $425.0 million of the Credit Facility, including $325.0 million to fund the acquisition price of Innovatix and Essensa (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions), approximately $50.0 million to fund the cash settlement portion of the October 31, 2016 Class B common unit exchange under the Exchange agreement (see Note 9 - Redeemable Limited Partners' Capital), and the remainder to fund general corporate activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company repaid $57.5 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility. These borrowings were classified as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as they were

26


due within one year of the balance sheet date. They may be renewed or extended at the option of the Company through the maturity date of the Credit Facility.
On April 10, 2017, the Company repaid $97.5 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Notes Payable
At March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the Company had $16.1 million and $19.3 million, respectively, in notes payable consisting primarily of non-interest bearing notes payable outstanding to departed member owners, of which $9.2 million and $5.5 million, respectively, were included in current portion of long-term debt and $6.9 million and $13.9 million, respectively, are included in long-term debt, less current portion, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Notes payable generally have stated maturities of five years from their date of issuance.
(9) REDEEMABLE LIMITED PARTNERS' CAPITAL
Pursuant to the terms of its limited partnership agreement in effect prior to the Reorganization and IPO, Premier LP was required to repurchase a limited partner's interest in Premier LP upon the sale of such limited partner's shares of PHSI common stock, such limited partner's withdrawal from Premier LP, or such limited partner's failure to comply with the applicable purchase commitments under the historical limited partnership agreement of Premier LP. Redeemable limited partners' capital is classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the withdrawal is at the option of each limited partner and the conditions of the repurchase are not solely within the Company's control.
Upon the consummation of the Reorganization and IPO, each limited partner's shares of PHSI were contributed for Class B common units of Premier LP. Commencing on October 31, 2014, and during each year thereafter, each limited partner has the cumulative right to exchange up to one-seventh of its initial allocation of Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock, cash or a combination of both, the form of consideration to be at the discretion of the Company's independent audit and compliance committee of the board of directors.
Redeemable limited partners' capital represents the member owners' 64% ownership of Premier LP through their ownership of Class B common units at March 31, 2017. The limited partners hold the majority of the votes of the board of directors and any redemption or transfer or choice of consideration cannot be assumed to be within the control of the Company. Therefore, redeemable limited partners' capital is recorded at the greater of the book value or redemption amount per the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Premier LP (as amended, the "LP Agreement"), and is calculated as the fair value of all Class B common units as if immediately exchangeable into Class A common shares. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded decreases to fair value for the redemption amount to redeemable limited partners' capital of $296.6 million (restated) and $685.6 million, respectively.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded total reductions of $247.1 million to redeemable limited partners' capital to reflect the exchange of Class B common units and surrender of associated shares of Class B common stock by member owners for a like number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock and the exchange of Class B common units and surrender of associated shares of Class B common stock by member owners for cash all pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement (see Note 11 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share).

Receivables from limited partners represent amounts due from limited partners for their required capital in Premier LP. These receivables are either interest bearing notes that were issued to new limited partners or non-interest bearing loans (contribution loans) provided to existing limited partners. These receivables are reflected as a reduction to redeemable limited partners' capital so that amounts due from limited partners for capital are not reflected as redeemable limited partnership capital until paid. No interest bearing notes receivable were executed by limited partners of Premier LP during the nine months ended March 31, 2017.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, one limited partner withdrew from Premier LP. The limited partnership agreement provides for the redemption of the former limited partner's Class B common units that are not eligible for exchange in the form of a five-year, unsecured, non-interest bearing term promissory note, a cash payment equal to the present value of the redemption amount, or other mutually agreed upon terms. Partnership interest obligations to the former limited partners are reflected in notes payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Under the Exchange Agreement, Class B common units that are eligible for exchange by the withdrawing limited partner must be exchanged in the next following exchange process.
Since the Reorganization and IPO, Premier LP's distribution policy has required cash distributions as long as taxable income is generated and cash is available to distribute, on a quarterly basis prior to the 60th day after the end of each calendar quarter. The Company makes quarterly distributions to its limited partners in the form of a legal partnership income distribution governed by the terms of the LP Agreement. These partner distributions are based on the limited partner's ownership in Premier LP and relative participation across Premier service offerings. While these distributions are based on relative participation across Premier service offerings, it is not based directly on revenue generated from an individual partner's participation as the distributions are based on the net income or loss of the partnership which encompass the operating expenses of the partnership as well as participation by non-owner members in Premier's service offerings. To the extent Premier LP incurred a net loss, the partners would not receive a quarterly distribution. As provided in the LP Agreement, the amount of actual cash distributed may be reduced by the amount of such distributions used by limited partners to offset contribution loans or other amounts payable to the Company.
Actual and expected quarterly distributions made to limited partners during the current fiscal year are as follows (in thousands):

(a)
Distributions are equal to Premier LP’s total taxable income from the preceding fiscal quarter-to-date period for each respective distribution date multiplied by the Company's standalone effective combined federal, state and local income tax rate.

28


(b)
Premier LP expects to make a quarterly distribution on or before May 29, 2017. The distribution is reflected in limited partners’ distribution payable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2017.
(10) STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
As of March 31, 2017, there were 50,706,518 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 88,407,103 shares of the Company's Class B common stock, par value $0.000001 per share, outstanding.
Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to (i) one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, (ii) receive dividends, when and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and subject to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding preferred stock or any class of series of stock having a preference over or the right to participate with the Class A common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or other distributions and (iii) receive pro rata, based on the number of shares of Class A common stock held, the remaining assets available for distribution upon the dissolution or liquidation of Premier, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of preferred stock having liquidation preferences, if any.
Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and not entitled to receive dividends or to receive a distribution upon the dissolution or a liquidation of Premier, other than dividends payable in shares of Premier's common stock. Pursuant to the terms of a voting trust agreement, the trustee will vote all of the Class B common stock as a block in the manner determined by the plurality of the votes received by the trustee from the member owners for the election of directors to serve on the board of directors, and by a majority of the votes received by the trustee from the member owners for all other matters. Class B common stock will not be listed on any stock exchange and, except in connection with any permitted sale or transfer of Class B common units, cannot be sold or transferred.
(11) EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share of Premier is computed by dividing net income attributable to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Net income (loss) attributable to stockholders includes the adjustment recorded in the period to reflect redeemable limited partners' capital at the redemption amount, as a result of the exchange benefit obtained by limited partners through the ownership of Class B common units. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation, which is calculated using the treasury stock method, includes the impact of shares that could be issued under the outstanding stock options, non-vested restricted stock units and awards, shares of non-vested performance share awards and the effect of the assumed redemption of Class B common units through the issuance of Class A common shares.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the effect of 2.8 million stock options, restricted stock units and performance share awards and 88.9 million Class B common units exchangeable for Class A common shares were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding due to the net loss attributable to shareholders sustained for the quarter and as including them would have been anti-dilutive for the period. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the effect of 1.8 million stock options were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding as they had an anti-dilutive effect, and the effect of 0.5 million performance shares were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding as they had not satisfied the applicable performance criteria at the end of the period.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, the effect of 1.4 million stock options were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding as they had an anti-dilutive effect.

Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, on a quarterly basis, Premier has the option to settle the exchange of Class B common units of Premier LP by member owners for cash, an equal number of Class A common shares of Premier, Inc. or a combination of cash and shares of Class A common stock. In connection with the exchange of Class B common units by member owners, regardless of the consideration used to settle the exchange, an equal number of shares of Premier's Class B common stock are surrendered by member owners and retired (see Note 9 - Redeemable Limited Partners' Capital). The following table presents certain information regarding the exchange of Class B common units and associated Class B common stock for Premier's Class A common stock and/or cash in connection with the quarterly exchanges pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, including activity related to the Class A and Class B common units and Class A and Class B common stock through the date of the applicable quarterly exchange:

(c)
As the quarterly exchange occurred on May 1, 2017, the impact of the exchange is not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
(12) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which generally equals the stated vesting period. Pre-tax stock-based compensation expense was $7.1 million and $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, with a resulting deferred tax benefit of $2.7 million and $4.5 million, respectively. Pre-tax stock-based compensation expense was $19.1 million and $36.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, with a resulting tax benefit of $7.3 million and $14.0 million, respectively. The deferred tax benefit was calculated at a rate of 38%, which represents the expected effective income tax rate at the time of the compensation expense deduction primarily at PHSI, and differs from the Company's current effective income tax rate which includes the impact of partnership income not subject to federal and state income taxes.
Premier 2013 Equity Incentive Plan
The Premier 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (and including any further amendments thereto, the "2013 Equity Incentive Plan"), provides for grants of up to 11.3 million shares of Class A common stock, all of which are eligible to be issued as non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units or performance awards. As of March 31, 2017, there were 4.6 million shares available for grant under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan.

Performance share awards issued and outstanding generally vest over three years if performance targets are met. Stock options have a term of ten years from the date of grant. Vested stock options will expire either after twelve months of an employee's termination with Premier or immediately upon an employee's termination with Premier, depending on the termination circumstances. Stock options generally vest in equal annual installments over three years.

The Company estimated the fair value of each stock option on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, applying the following assumptions, and amortized expense over each option's vesting period using the straight-line attribution approach:

Nine Months Ended March 31,
 
2017
2016
Expected life (a)
6 years
6 years
Expected dividend (b)
—
—
Expected volatility (c)
32.01% - 33.00%
32.70% - 33.50%
Risk-free interest rate (d)
1.31% - 2.13%
1.37% - 1.82%
Weighted average option grant date fair value
$10.48 - $11.28
$11.19 - $12.40
(a)
The six-year expected life (estimated period of time outstanding) of stock options granted was estimated using the "Simplified Method" which utilizes the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. This method was utilized for the stock options due to the lack of historical exercise behavior of Premier's employees.
(b)
No dividends are expected to be paid over the contractual term of the stock options granted, resulting in the use of a zero expected dividend rate.
(c)
The expected volatility rate is based on the observed historical volatilities of comparable companies.
(d)
The risk-free interest rate was interpolated from the five-year and seven-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate published by the United States Treasury as of the date of the grant.
(13) INCOME TAXES
The Company's income tax expense is attributable to the activities of the Company, PHSI and PSCI, all of which are subchapter C corporations subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. In contrast, Premier LP is not subject to federal and state income taxes as its income is taxable to its partners.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded tax expense of $7.3 million (restated) and $9.5 million, respectively, which equates to effective tax rates of 9% and 12%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to a deferred tax benefit recognized in connection with an increase in income apportioned to California. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded tax expense of $68.1 million (restated) and $41.3 million, respectively, which equates to effective tax rates of 15% and 18%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to the one-time gain recognized from the remeasurement of the 50% equity method investment in Innovatix to fair value upon acquisition of Innovatix and Essensa (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions). The Company's effective tax rate differs from income taxes recorded at the statutory rate primarily due to partnership income not subject to federal, state and local income taxes and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets at PHSI.
The Company had net deferred tax assets of $422.6 million (restated) and $422.8 million as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. The current period balance was comprised of $468.8 million (restated) in deferred tax assets at Premier, Inc. offset by $46.1 million (restated) in deferred tax liabilities at PHSI and PSCI. During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded a $27.4 million deferred tax liability associated with equity earnings from PSCI attributable to the one-time gain recognized from the remeasurement of the 50% equity method investment in Innovatix to fair value upon acquisition of Innovatix and Essensa and corresponding partnership income and basis differences in Premier LP at the Company (see Note 3 - Business Acquisitions), a $42.9 million deferred tax liability recorded upon acquisition of Innovatix primarily attributable to the excess of the financial reporting basis in the identifiable intangible assets over the tax basis, and an $18.8 million valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets primarily at PHSI. These decreases were partially offset by $94.6 million of deferred tax assets recorded in connection with the exchanges of Class B common units pursuant to the Exchange Agreement that occurred during the nine months ended March 31, 2017.
The Company had TRA liabilities of $347.4 million and $279.7 million at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, representing 85% of the tax savings payable to limited partners that the Company expects to receive in connection with the Section 754 election. The election results in adjustments to the tax bases of the assets of Premier LP upon member owner exchanges of Class B common units of Premier LP for Class A common stock of Premier, Inc. or cash. The $67.7 million increase was primarily attributable to $70.8 million of liabilities incurred in connection with quarterly member owner exchanges that occurred during the nine months ended March 31, 2017.
