This company is the largest dialysis services provider in the United States focused exclusively on joint venture partnerships with physicians. American Renal provides high-quality patient care and clinical outcomes to patients suffering from the most advanced stage of chronic kidney disease, known as end-stage renal disease.

The company’s core values create a culture of clinical autonomy and operational accountability for its physician partners and staff members.

As of June 30, 2015, we owned and operated 181 dialysis clinics in partnership with 320 nephrologist partners treating over 12,000 patients in 23 states and the District of Columbia. From 2012 to 2014, our total number of treatments grew at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 14.8%, driven primarily by increases in non-acquired treatments, which grew at a CAGR of 10.1%. During the same period, our revenues, Adjusted EBITDA-NCI and net income attributable to us has grown at a CAGR of 15.3%, 12.8% and 34.5%, respectively.
