    Report of Independent Auditors

    The Board of DirectorsDaughters of Charity Health System

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Daughters of CharityHealth System, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and 2013,and the related consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets and cash flowsfor the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

    Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements

    Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statementsin conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design,implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fairpresentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraudor error.

    Auditors Responsibility

    Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. Wedid not audit the financial statements of Marillac Insurance Company, Ltd (Marillac), a wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total assets constituting 6.68% as of June 30, 2014and 6.82% as of June 30, 2013 and total revenues constituting .85% in 2014 and .87% in 2013 ofthe related consolidated totals. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report hasbeen furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Marillac, isbased solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance withauditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we planand perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements arefree of material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidenceabout the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend onthe auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of thefinancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditorconsiders internal control relevant to the entitys preparation and fair presentation of the financialstatements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but notfor the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control.Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriatenessof accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made bymanagement, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

    We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide abasis for our audit opinion.

    Opinion

    In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, the financial statementsreferred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position ofDaughters of Charity Health System at June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results ofits operations and changes in net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformitywith U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

    Daughters of Charity Health Systems Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming thatDaughters of Charity Health System will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 tothe consolidated financial statements, Daughters of Charity Health System has recurring lossesfrom operations and deteriorating liquidity that raise substantial doubt about its ability tocontinue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described inNote 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might resultfrom the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

    1. Organization (continued)

    DCHS established an Obligated Group (see listing of entities included in the Obligated Groupabove) to access the capital markets. Obligated Group members are jointly and severally liablefor the long-term debt outstanding under the Bond Master Indenture.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

    In recent years, DCHS has experienced recurring operating losses that have been fundedprimarily from cash reserves. For the year ended June 30, 2014, DCHS recorded a net operatingloss of $28,378,000 and a decline in cash, cash equivalents and long-term investments of$83,117,000, inclusive of a one-time $130,000,000 contribution from the Daughters of CharityFoundation that was restricted for the purpose of defeasing the Series 2008 Bonds. Refer toNote 9 for further details on the defeased Series 2008 Bonds. DCHS anticipates that it willcontinue to incur operating losses and intends to continue to fund its losses from operations. Inorder to provide liquidity support, subsequent to June 30, 2014, DCHS borrowed $125,000,000in short-term debt from the California Statewide Development Corporation. Refer to Note 12 forfurther details

    On October 10, 2014, DCHS Parent and Daughters of Charity Ministry Services Corporationexecuted an agreement to transfer control of DCHS Parent and the other entities comprisingDCHS to Prime Healthcare Services, Inc.

The agreement stipulates that, upon Transaction close, DCHS shall use cashproceeds from Prime to refund all outstanding tax-exempt bonds, Prime shall assume all pensionliabilities, and the transferred entities shall remain subject to substantially all DCHS liabilitiesnot repaid in cash at the time of closing. The Transaction is subject to regulatory approval andthere can be no guarantee of Transaction closure. Refer to Note 12 for further details on the

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    The uncertainties surrounding future cash flows and liquidity position raise substantial doubtregarding DCHS ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidatedfinancial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accountingprinciples applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and thesettlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeablefuture. Such financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability ofthe carrying amounts of recorded assets or the amount of liabilities that might result from the

    outcome of the uncertainties described above.

    Consolidation

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DCHS afterelimination of intercompany transactions.

    Use of Estimates

    The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States (U.S.)generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and

    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosure of contingentassets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amountsof revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from thoseestimates.

    Cash and Cash Equivalents

    Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and highly liquid marketable securities withoriginal maturities, at the time of purchase, of three months or less.

    Patient Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, and Net Patient Service

    Revenue

    Patient accounts receivable and net patient service revenue are reported at the estimated netrealizable amounts from patients, third-party payers, and others for services rendered, includingestimated settlements under reimbursement agreements with third-party payers. Settlements withthird-party payers are accrued on an estimated basis in the period in which the related servicesare rendered and are adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    Patient service revenues less provision for bad debts are reported net of the provision for baddebts on the consolidated statement of operations and changes in net assets. DCHSs self-payprovision was $43,282,000 and $40,354,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,respectively.

    DCHS manages the receivables by regularly reviewing its patient accounts and contracts and byproviding appropriate allowances for uncollectible amounts. These allowances are estimated

    based upon an evaluation of historical payments, negotiated contracts and governmentalreimbursements. Adjustments and changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which theyare determined.

    Patient services revenues, net of contractual allowances and discounts, are as follows(in thousands):

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    Inpatient acute care services, outpatient services, and skilled nursing services rendered toMedicare program beneficiaries are paid at prospectively determined rates per discharge. Theserates vary according to a patient classification system that is based on clinical, diagnostic, andother factors. Certain inpatient nonacute services and defined capital and medical education costsrelated to Medicare beneficiaries are paid using a cost reimbursement methodology.

    Health care services are provided free of charge or at a significant discount based on a sliding

    scale to individuals who meet certain financial criteria. DCHS makes every effort to determine ifa patient qualifies for charity care upon admission. If a patient is determined to qualify forcharity care, services are rendered to the patient free of cost. The costs of providing theseservices are included in unsponsored community benefit expense (see Note 3).

    After satisfaction of amounts due from insurance and the application of financial discounts topatients balances, and after exhausting all reasonable efforts to collect from the patients, asignificant portion of the DCHSs uninsured and self-pay patient accounts are referred to thethird-party agencies based on DCHSs established guidelines for further collection activities. Asa result, DCHSs records a significant provision for doubtful accounts related to these uninsuredpatients in the period the services are rendered.

    Gross patient revenue is recorded based on usual and customary charges. Gross patient revenuewas $6,067,992,000 and $5,919,043,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,respectively. The percentage of inpatient and outpatient services is as follows:

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    DCHS derives significant portions of its revenues from Medicare, Medicaid (Medi-Cal), andother third-party payer programs. As a result, DCHS is exposed to certain credit risks. Theestimated percentage of gross patient revenues by major payer group is as follows:

    June 302014 2013

    Medicare 44.8% 46.9%Medicare capitated 1.5 1.4Medi-Cal 24.3 23.5Medi-Cal capitated 1.3 1.0Contracted-rate payers 19.5 19.9Commercial capitated 0.2 0.1Commercial insurance self-pay and other payers 8.4 7.2

    100.0% 100.0%

    Medi-Cal and contracted-rate payers are paid on a per diem, per discharge, modified cost, orcapitated basis or a combination of these.

    Adjustments for the finalization of prior year cost reports from both Medicare and Medi-Calresulted in an increase to patient service revenues of $9,291,000 and $12,214,000, for the yearsended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

    DCHSs St. Francis Medical Center qualified for and received Medi-Cal funding as adisproportionate-share hospital from the state of California under Senate Bill (SB) 855. Relatedrevenues were $27,381,000 and $31,299,000, for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,respectively, and are included in net patient service revenue. Amounts to be received in futureyears, if any, are subject to annual determination.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    The St. Francis Medical Center also received funding for Medi-Cal disproportionate-sharehospitals under Senate Bill 1255 (SB 1255).

    Reserves for charity care and uncollectible amounts have been established and are netted againstpatient accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets.

    Industry Concentration

    The receipt of future revenues by DCHS is subject to, among other factors, federal and statepolicies affecting the health care industry. There are future revenue uncertainties that mayrequire that costs be controlled, which will be subject to the capability of management; futureeconomic conditions, which may include an inability to control expenses in periods of inflation;increased competition; and other conditions, which are impossible to predict.

    Inventories

    Inventories consist of supplies and are stated at the lower of cost or market value, which isdetermined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are reviewed for obsolescence on aperiodic basis. Amounts are included in other current assets.

    Assets Limited as to Use

    Assets limited as to use represent assets designated by the board of directors for future capitalimprovements, other specific purposes for Marillac over which the board of directors retainscontrol, assets held by trustees under bond indenture agreements, and investments restricted bydonors. The board of directors has the full ability to utilize those Marillac assets limited as to useto satisfy the needs of on-going operations as necessary. Excluding the assets held as part of the

    pooled investment fund, described below, these assets include investments in cash, equitysecurities domestic and foreign, U.S. federal and corporate obligations, to-be-announced(TBA) mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and fixed-income securities, whichare stated at fair value. The composition and fair value of the long-term interest in the pooledinvestment fund also are limited as to use and are as shown below.

    Investment income or loss is included in deficit of revenues over expenses, unless the income orloss is restricted by donor or law. The assets are reflected in the assets limited as to use line itemin the consolidated balance sheet.

    Interest in Pooled Investment Fund

    DCHS has been participating in a pooled investment fund administered by Ascension Health.This pooled investment fund is referred to as the Health System Depository (HSD). DCHSrecognizes its rights to the assets held in the HSD as a beneficial interest in the pooledinvestment fund. Beginning April 1, 2012, Ascension Health has decided to operate itsinvestment management activities through its subsidiary, Catholic Healthcare InvestmentManagement Company (CHIMCO), an investment advisor registered with the Securities andExchange Commission. Consequently, DCHSs HSD accounts were closed, and the remainingbalance was then invested into the newly created CHIMCO Alpha Fund, LLC (the Fund).CHIMCO serves as a manager and the principal advisor of the Fund.

    The fair value of DCHS beneficial interest in the HSD fund is determined using DCHSsownership percentage of the Fund based on the net asset value (NAV) of the pool. The fair valueof DCHSs investment in the Fund decreased by $147,558,000 and $66,946,000 as of June 30,2014 and 2013, respectively. DCHSs total investment in the Fund, reflected at fair value, was$27,802,000 and $175,360,000 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The total investmentin the Fund is comprised of cash, equity securities domestic and foreign, U.S. federal andcorporate obligations, TBA mortgaged-backed securities, asset-backed securities, andfixed-income securities, which are stated at fair value.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, investment balances of approximately $921,000 and $62,478,000,respectively, in the Fund represented cash invested in a short-term pooled investment account,which is a centralized cash management arrangement that allows DCHS to access the Fund ondemand using the Funds short-term investments accounts.

    Investments

    Investments received through gifts are recorded at estimated fair value at the date of donation.Gains and losses that result from market fluctuations are recognized in the period that suchfluctuations occur. Realized gains or losses resulting from sales or maturities are calculated on anadjusted-cost basis. Adjusted-cost is the original cost of the security adjusted for any purchasesor sales during the year. Dividend and interest income are accrued when earned.

    Investment income includes the following (in thousands):

    Year Ended June 302014 2013

    Interest and dividends $ 1,559 $ 3,238Investment fees (246) (288)Unrealized gain on investments net 8,871 5,856Net realized gain on sales of securities 6,450 8,025

    Derivative Financial Instruments

    DCHS entered into forward contracts related to the purchase and sale of TBA mortgage-backedsecurities under a dollar-roll strategy. The contracts represent a commitment to purchase or sellthe security at a fixed price on a specified future date and include net settlement provisions,therefore, meeting the definition of a derivative under Financial Accounting Standards Board(FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815,Derivatives and Hedging. The Companyhas recorded the gross amounts of benefits and obligations as assets and liabilities, respectively,as the contracts are not settled daily. As of June 30, 2014, there were no open TBAs; therefore,

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    there are no associated assets, liabilities or unrealized gains. As of June 30, 2013, the value of thebenefits and the value of the obligations under the outstanding contracts both approximate$3,200,000. These amounts represent pending unsettled benefits and obligations, and have beenincluded in the other current assets and the accrued liabilities line items within the consolidatedbalance sheets. The amount of net realized gain (loss) included in investment income within theconsolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets and unrealized gains wereimmaterial for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to the consolidated

    financial statements.

    DCHS enters into TBA transactions to generate short-term investment income; the aggregatenotional amounts transacted during the year were approximately $21 million and $46 million forthe fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. DCHS transacts all of its TBAtransactions with its custodian and does not expect any significant occurrences of counterpartydefault. All TBA securities are exchange-traded and subject to the credit risk associated with theunderlying pool of mortgages. However, management believes that such risk associated withtrading these securities is insignificant to its overall investment strategy.

    Property and Equipment

    Property and equipment are stated at cost, if purchased, and at fair market value, if donated.Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using a half-year convention and thestraight-line method for financial statement purposes. Estimated useful lives by classification areas follows:

    Long-Lived Asset Impairment

    DCHS evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets for impairment periodically orwhenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset, orrelated group of assets, may not be recoverable from estimated future undiscounted cash flowsgenerated by the underlying tangible assets. When carrying value of an asset exceeds therecoverability, an asset impairment charge is recognized. When an asset is not operating at full

    capacity, it is also deemed impaired. The remaining net book value is recognized as animpairment charge in the consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets. For theyears ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, losses from the disposal of assets were immaterial.

    Goodwill and Intangible Assets

    Goodwill is measured as of the effective date of a business acquisition as the excess of theaggregate of the fair value of consideration transferred over the fair value of the tangible andintangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

    The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows (in thousands):

    Year Ended June 302014 2013

    Beginning balance $ 10,421 $ 6,779Addition from acquisition 2,955 3,642Impairment (13,376)

    Ending balance $ $ 10,421

    DCHS, through the DCHS Medical Foundation, acquired intangible assets and goodwill valuedat $3,251,000 and $3,884,000 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as a result of variousphysician practice acquisitions during fiscal years 2014 and 2013.

    The goodwill impairment tests are based on financial projections prepared by management thatincorporate anticipated results from programs and initiatives being implemented. If theseprojections are not met or if negative trends occur that impact outlook, the value of goodwill isimpaired. During the year ended June 30, 2014, management determined that all goodwill wasimpaired.

In May 2013, De Paul Ventures San Jose Dialysis, LLC entered into anagreement to acquire a 10% interest in Priday Dialysis, LLC, a Delaware limited liabilitycompany. The latter is an ambulatory health care center specializing in end-stage renal diseasetreatment. De Paul Ventures San Jose Dialysis, LLCs net investment in Priday Dialysis, LLCwas valued at $51,000 and $215,000 in DCHSs consolidated financial statements as of June 30,

    2014 and 2013, respectively.

    Guarantees

    In the normal course of its business, DCHS enters into various types of guarantees withcounterparties in connection with certain derivative, underwriting, asset sale, and othertransactions. DCHS also provides indemnifications against potential losses to certain partiesinvolved in their bond financing. The indemnifications are ordinarily documented in standardcontract terms. Generally, there are no stated or notional amounts included in theseindemnifications, and the events or contingences triggering the obligations to indemnify aregenerally not expected to occur. There have been no claims, and none are expected to occur;

    therefore, it is not possible to develop an estimate of the maximum payout and fair value underthese guarantees and indemnifications. DCHS has not recorded any liabilities in the consolidatedfinancial statements as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, related to any guarantees or indemnificationarrangements.

    Self Insurance

    DCHS is self-insured for hospital professional and general liabilities by a wholly ownedself-insured captive insurance company. The provisions for estimated hospital professional andgeneral liability claims include estimates of the ultimate costs for both uninsured reported claimsand claims incurred-but-not-reported (IBNR), in accordance with actuarial projections or paid

    claims lag models based on past experience. Such claim reserves are based on the best dataavailable to DCHS; however, these estimates are subject to a significant degree of inherentvariability. There is at least a reasonable possibility that a material change to the estimatedreserves will occur in the near term. Such estimates are continually monitored and reviewed, andas reserves are adjusted, the differences are reflected in current operations. Management is of theopinion that the associated liabilities recognized in the accompanying consolidated financialstatements are adequate to cover such claims.

    DCHS has entered into reinsurance, stop loss, and excess policy agreements with independentinsurance companies to limit its losses on hospital professional and general liability claims.

    Hospital professional and general liabilities were $6,022,000 and $14,909,000 discounted at arate of 3% and 3% as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Management is not aware of anypotential hospital professional and general liability claims whose settlement would have amaterial adverse effect on the DCHSs consolidated financial position.

    Workers Compensation Insurance

    DCHS is insured for workers compensation claims with major independent insurancecompanies, subject to certain deductibles of $500,000 per occurrence as of June 30, 2014 and2013. Based on actuarially determined estimates, provisions have been made in the consolidatedfinancial statements, with the current portion included within accrued liabilities and thenoncurrent portion within workers compensation and hospital professional and generalliabilities, for all known claims and incurred but not reported claims as of June 30, 2014 and2013. Workers compensation liabilities were $26,115,000 and $22,891,000 discounted using arate of 3% and 3%, as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Estimation differences between

    actual payments and amounts recorded in previous years are recognized as expense in the yearsuch amounts become determinable.

    Temporarily and Permanently Restricted Net Assets

    Temporarily restricted net assets are those for which use by DCHS has been limited by donors toa specific time period or purpose. Permanently restricted net assets have been restricted bydonors to be maintained by DCHS in perpetuity.

    California Hospital Fee Program

    California legislation established a program in 2009 that imposes a Quality Assurance Fee (QAFee) on certain general acute-care hospitals in order to make supplemental and grant paymentsand increased capitation payments (Supplemental Payments) to hospitals up to the aggregateupper payment limit for various periods. There have been four such programs (Programs) sinceinception.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    The Programs are designed to make supplemental inpatient and outpatient Medi-Cal payments toprivate hospitals, including additional payments for certain facilities that provide high-acuitycare and trauma services to the Medi-Cal population. This hospital QA Fee program provides amechanism for increasing payments to hospitals that serve Medi-Cal patients, with no impact onthe states General Fund. Payments are made directly by the state or Medi-Cal managed careplans, which will receive increased capitation rates from the state in amounts equal to theSupplemental Payments. Outside of the legislation, the California Hospital Association has

    created a private program, operated by the California Health Foundation and Trust (CHFT),which was established to alleviate disparities potentially resulting from the implementation of thePrograms.

    The Programs require full federal approval (i.e., by the Centers for Medicare and MedicaidServices (CMS)) in order for them to be fully enacted. If final federal approval was notultimately obtained, provisions in the underlying legislation allowed for the QA Fee, previouslyassessed, and Supplemental Payments, previously received, to be returned and recouped,respectively. As such, revenue and expense recognition was not allowed until full CMS approvalwas obtained. Full CMS approvals for the first two programs were obtained in December 2010and December 2011, respectively.

    In June 2012, the legislation governing the third program (30-Month Program) with coveringperiod from July 2011 to December 2013 was amended to allow for the fee-for-service portion tobe administered separately from the managed care portion. The fee-for-service portion of the30-Month Program was approved in June 2012, while the managed-care portion covering theperiod from July 2011 to June 2013 was approved by CMS in June 2013. Final CMS approval onthe managed-care portion for the remaining six months of the 30-Month Program did not occurprior to June 30, 2014.

    DCHS recognized payments to the California Department of Health Care Services for the QA feein the amount of $33,411,000 and $97,609,000 and pledge payments to CHFT of approximately

    $1,577,000 and $4,938,000 within purchased services and other expenses for the years endedJune 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. DCHS also recognized Supplemental Payment revenue inthe amount of $49,606,000 and $169,454,000 pertaining to the 30-Month Program within the netpatient service revenues for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

    In October 2013, the fourth program (36-Month Program) covering the period from January2014 to December 2016 was signed into law by the Governor of California. Management expectspartial CMS approval of the 36-Month Program by December 2014.

    Meaningful Use Incentives

    The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 established payments under theMedicare and Medi-Cal programs for certain professionals and hospitals that meaningfully usecertified electronic health record (EHR) technology. The Medicare incentive payments are paidout to qualifying hospitals over four consecutive years on a transitional schedule. To qualify forMedi-Cal incentives, hospitals and physicians must annually meet EHR meaningful use

    criteria that become more stringent over three stages as determined by CMS. For the years endedJune 30, 2014 and 2013, DCHS has recorded meaningful use incentive payments of $10,104,000and $6,492,000, respectively. These incentive payments have been recorded as other operatingrevenue in the DCHS consolidated financial statements.

    Premium Revenue

    Certain entities of DCHS have at-risk agreements with various payers to provide medicalservices to enrollees. Under these agreements, DCHS receives monthly payments based on thenumber of enrollees, regardless of services actually performed by DCHS. DCHS accrues costswhen services are rendered under these contracts, including estimates of IBNR claims and

    amounts receivable/payable under risk-sharing arrangements.

    The IBNR accrual includes an estimate of the costs of services for which DCHS is responsible,including out-of-network services.

    Other Operating Revenue

    Included in other operating revenue are amounts from investments in health-related activities,rental income, cafeteria, and other nonpatient care revenue.

    Contributions

    Unconditional promises to give cash and other assets to DCHS are reported at fair value at thedate the promise is received. The gifts are reported as either temporarily or permanentlyrestricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donatedassets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends orpurpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified asunrestricted net assets. Net assets released from restrictions used for operations are also includedin other operating revenue as contribution revenue to the Hospitals.

    2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

    Certain Obligated Group members have a policy whereby assets are periodically transferred ascharitable distributions to subsidiaries of DCHS that are not members of the Obligated Group.These transfers are accounted for as direct charges to the Obligated Group members unrestrictednet assets. It is anticipated that Obligated Group members will continue to make asset transfers tothe subsidiaries. These transfers are eliminated upon consolidation.

    Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs)

    AROs are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. These liabilitiesare initially recorded at fair value, and the related asset retirement costs are capitalized byincreasing the carrying amount of the related assets by the same amount as the liability. Assetretirement costs are subsequently depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets.Subsequent to initial recognition, DCHS records period-to-period changes in the ARO liabilityresulting from the passage of time. DCHSs ARO liabilities recorded in the consolidatedfinancial statements at June 30, 2014 and 2013, were $3,227,000 and $3,043,000, respectively.

    Revenue Guarantees

    DCHS has agreements with physicians whereby minimum revenues are guaranteed by DCHS forstipulated dollar amounts over specified periods, as defined in the contracts. DCHS records aliability for the amount of the guaranteed revenue at the time the contract is entered into andadjusts the liability as it is expended. DCHS has recorded liabilities of $1,396,000 and$1,014,000 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

    Recent Accounting Pronouncements

    In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting StandardsUpdate (ASU) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (ASU 2014-15), which requires the entitys management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events,

    considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entitys ability to continue as agoing concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or withinone year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable).The amendments in this update are effective for DCHS beginning July 1, 2015. DCHS iscurrently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 on the consolidatedfinancial statements.

The guidance outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accountingfor revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes the revenue recognitionrequirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. The coreprinciple of the guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promisedgood or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entityexpects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is

    effective for DCHS beginning July 1, 2017. DCHS is currently evaluating the impact of theadoption of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.

    In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations andDisclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity(ASU 2014-08), which changes the criteriafor reporting discontinued operation and requires entities to disclose additional information aboutdisposal transactions that do not meet the discontinued operations criteria. The adoption of ASU2014-08 is effective for DCHS beginning July 1, 2015. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-08 is notexpected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of DCHS.

    In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-06, Not-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958), Services

    Received from Personnel of an Affiliate (ASU 2013-06), which requires that a recipient non-for-profit entity recognize all services from personnel of an affiliate that directly benefit the recipientnot-for-profit entity, and for which the affiliate does not charge the recipient not-for-profit entity.The adoption of ASU 2013-06 is effective for DCHS beginning July 1, 2015. The adoption ofASU 2013-06 is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statementsof DCHS.

    4. Fair Value Measurements

    DCHS accounts for certain assets at fair value or on a basis that approximates fair value. A fairvalue hierarchy for valuation inputs prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent towhich inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair valuemeasurement is reported in one of the three levels and is determined by the lowest-level inputthat is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are as follows:

    Level 1 Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets as of the

    measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities in Level 1 include listed equities andmoney markets balances.

    Level 2 Pricing inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in activemarkets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active,and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions areobservable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data forsubstantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial assets in this categorygenerally include asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, andcommingled investment funds.

    Level 3 Pricing inputs are generally unobservable for the assets and include situationswhere there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs used indetermination of fair value require managements judgment or estimation of assumptionsthat market participants would use in pricing the assets. Therefore, the fair values aredetermined using discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. There were noLevel 3 investments at June 30, 2014 and 2013.

    4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

    There were no transfers to or from Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the years presented. The Level 2financial assets listed in fair value hierarchy tables above use the following valuation techniquesand inputs:

    As described in Note 2, DCHS participates in Ascension Healths pooled CHIMCO fund,which is carried at fair value based on quoted market prices, quoted market prices for similarinstruments, and observable and unobservable inputs. The pooled fund is composed of cash,

    equity securities domestic and foreign, U.S. federal and corporate obligations, TBAmortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and fixed-income securities and isdesignated as Level 2.

    For marketable securities, such as foreign corporation and U.S. government debt securities,government and commercial mortgage-backed securities, TBA mortgaged-backed securities,corporate U.S. debt securities, index funds, and beneficial interest held in trust accounts,wherein identical quoted market prices are not readily available, the fair value of suchinvestments is determined based on market participant pricing or other available market datafor comparable instruments and transactions at the measurement date in establishing thevaluation. DCHS, therefore, incorporates industry-standard valuation techniques as inputs to

    fair valuation of its investments designated as Level 2.

    DCHSs rationale for the assignment of levels is based on types or classes of financial assetsrather than an analysis of each individual asset. Key consideration in the assignment of levelswas given to the determination of a securitys fair valuation measurement if obtained from anactive market, and then further consideration was given for the types of inputs used toevaluate the fair value price. This approach has been supported by managements analysis ofthe methodology, the evaluated pricing models, and inputs used by its pricing vendors. It isalso consistent with industry practice.

    Where quoted prices are available in an active market (exchange-traded), the securities are

    classified as Level 1. It is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency andvolume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If quoted market prices are notreadily available for a specific financial asset, then value is determined using quoted prices ofassets with similar characteristics and is classified as Level 2. Examples of these categoriesare DCHSs investment in high-yield debt securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, andfixed-income prices provided by a broker-dealer. In cases where there is limited activity andless transparency associated with inputs to the valuation, DCHS will designate theinvestments as Level 3.

    (2)

    This category includes investments in forward contracts (derivative instruments) related to the purchase and sale of TBAmortgage-backed securities within a dollar roll. The contracts represent a commitment to purchase and sell the securities at afixed price on a specified future date and include net settlement provisions. The primary objective of these funds is to seekattractive short-term risk-adjusted absolute returns. There is no redemption limitation imposed on these investments;therefore, the liquidity is not limited to beyond one to three business days.

    (3)

    This category includes investments in equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, cash, and short-terminvestments. This includes investments in donor-restricted trust funds managed by select brokerage firms. There are no

    provisions for redemptions until donor restrictions are released. Distributions from some of these trust funds are receivedperiodically; however, redemption of the fair value of the trusts (corpus) may remain restricted during the life of these fundsor may be liquidated at a future date.

    8. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

    DCHS maintains two different defined benefit retirement plans that cover substantially alleligible employees of DCHS. Benefits are generally based on age, years of service, andemployee compensation. DCHS also offers postretirement health care benefits to a limitednumber of its employees. The postretirement health care benefits are determined based on ageand years of service.

    The first retirement plan is a multiemployer defined benefit pension plan called Retirement Plan

    for Hospital Employees (RPHE). The entities that participate in the RPHE are Seton MedicalCenter, Seton Medical Center Coastside, OConnor Hospital, Saint Louise Regional Hospital,and Caritas Business Services. Benefits are generally based on years of service and theemployees compensation. Contributions to the plan are based on actuarially determined amountssufficient to meet the benefits to be paid to plan participants. DCHS contributed cash of$14,788,000 and $15,873,000 to the RPHE during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and2013, respectively.

    The second retirement plan is a single-employer defined benefit pension plan (the DCHSRetirement Plan). DCHS associates at St. Francis Medical Center, St. Vincent Medical Center,and the system office are eligible to participate in this plan. DCHS contributed $19,333,000 and

    $13,018,000 to the DCHS Retirement Plan during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,respectively.

    The third retirement plan is a retiree health insurance program (the Postretirement HealthcarePlan). DCHS employees at OConnor Hospital, St. Louise Regional Hospital, Seton MedicalCenter, and Seton Medical Center Coastside are eligible to participate in this plan. ThePostretirement Healthcare Plan is an unfunded plan. DCHS contributed $114,000 and $200,000to the Postretirement Healthcare Plan during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,respectively.

    Defined Contribution Pension Plans

    In addition to the above pension plans, DCHS maintains three different defined contributionpension plans for its employees. Two of these contribution plans require employer participationbased on a percentage of the employees contributions. A third plan was adopted by DCHSsboard of directors for all its new and existing nonunion employees in September 2010. This planwas further expanded to cover the nurses union (United Nurses Associations of California or

    UNAC) of St. Francis Medical Center, effective January 1, 2012, and to the Service EmployeesInternational Union (SEIU) on January 1, 2013. The third plan is a fully employer-paid definedcontribution pension plan. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the employerscontribution for these three defined contribution plans was $24,935,000 and $21,568,000,respectively.

    Pension Plan Amendments

    In April 2012, DCHSs largest union, SEIU, had ratified freezing the defined benefit pensionplan belonging to all its members in DCHSs six hospitals effective January 1, 2013. Uponfreezing the defined benefit pension plan, DCHS had introduced an employer-paid definedcontribution plan (IRC 401(a)) for its SEIU members beginning January 1, 2013.

    Discount rate 4.70% 4.40% 5.20% 4.89%Rate of compensation increase 3.50 N/A 3.50 N/A

    Weighted-average assumptions used todetermine net periodic benefit costs:

    Discount rate 5.20% 4.89% 4.62% 4.46%Expected return on plan assets 7.25 N/A 7.25 N/ARate of compensation increase 3.50 N/A 3.50 N/A

    Expected Return on Plan Assets

    The DCHS Retirement Plans estimated long-term rate of return on pension assets is drivenprimarily by historical asset-class returns, an assessment of expected future performance, advicefrom external actuarial firms, and the incorporation of specific asset-class risk factors. Assetallocations are periodically updated using pension plan asset/liabilities studies, and DCHSsestimated long-term rates of return are consistent with these studies. The DCHS Retirement Planportfolio return assumption is 7.25%, at June 30, 2014 and 2013.

    Discount Rate

    The discount rate assumptions used to determine the postretirement benefit plan obligations andexpenses reflect the prevailing rate available on high-quality, fixed-income debt instruments. Therate was based on cash flow analysis that matched estimated future benefit payments to thenoncollateralized bond discount yield curve as of June 30, 2014 and 2013.
