Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

| Net margin | 5.1% | 0.9% | 89 | 10 |
| Operating margin | 11.1% | -0.8% | 100 | 10 |

| Liabilities / equity | 0.91 | 0.67 | 78 | 10 |
| Current ratio | 1.01 | 1.95 | 0 | 10 |

Percentile = share of the N covered peers reporting that ratio whose value is lower (ties counted half); computed among grepcent-covered companies in SIC industry 8000 Services-Health Services, not the whole market. A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis of U.S. Physical Therapy, Inc. and its subsidiaries (herein referred to as “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) should be read in
conjunction with (i) our historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; and (ii) our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2026 (“2025 Annual Report”).

This discussion includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risk and uncertainties. Actual results may differ substantially from the statements we make in this
section due to a number of factors that are discussed below.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We make statements in this report that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning given such term under Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements contain forward-looking information relating to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our Company. These statements (often using words such
as “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “appear”, “should” and similar words) involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those we project. Included among such statements, but not limited to, are
those relating to opening clinics, availability of personnel and the insurance reimbursement environment. The forward-looking statements are based on our current views and assumptions, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated
in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks, uncertainties, and factors, which include, but are not limited to:

On July 1, 2026, we acquired a 67% equity interest in a twelve-clinic practice with the practice owners retaining a 33% equity interest.

Our strategy is to continue acquiring multi-clinic outpatient physical therapy practices and home-care physical and speech therapy practices, to develop outpatient physical therapy clinics as
satellites in existing partnerships, and to continue acquiring companies that provide IIP.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Company operates its business through two reportable business segments. Our physical therapy operations consist of physical therapy, speech therapy and occupational therapy clinics
and home-care physical and speech therapy practices that provide pre- and post-operative care and treatment for a variety of orthopedic-related disorders, sports-related injuries, and rehabilitation of injured workers. Services provided by
the industrial injury prevention services (“IIP”) segment include onsite services for clients’ employees including injury prevention and rehabilitation, performance optimization, post-offer employment testing, functional capacity
evaluations and ergonomic assessments. The majority of IIP is contracted with and paid for directly by employers, including a number of Fortune 500 companies. IIP is performed through industrial sports medicine professionals with
specialized training related to the musculoskeletal system.

During the last three years, we completed the following acquisitions of outpatient physical therapy practices, companies that manage and/or provide administrative services to outpatient
physical therapy practices, and IIP businesses detailed below:

Recent Developments

On January 2, 2026, we acquired a 50% interest in a physical practice with eight-clinic locations. The prior owner retained a 50% ownership interest.

On January 31, 2026, we acquired an industrial injury prevention business. The prior owner retained a 30% ownership interest.

On February 24, 2026, our Board of Directors raised our quarterly dividend rate from $0.45 per share to $0.46 per share, effective immediately, and declared a quarterly dividend for the first quarter of 2026
at the higher rate. The dividend will be payable on April 10, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 13, 2026.

We repurchased 81,322 of our own shares for total consideration of $5.6 million from the open market during the three months ended December 31, 2025, which demonstrates our focus on enhancing shareholder
value as well as our confidence in the long-term prospects of the Company.

Strategic Hospital Alliances

On February 2, 2026, we announced a 10-year strategic alliance between our subsidiary partner, Metro, and a prominent New York hospital system, whereby 60 of Metro’s existing outpatient physical therapy
clinics in New York will become part of the hospital system’s clinical services network. The alliance is expected to begin operations with an initial group of clinics in mid-2026, with all 60 clinics anticipated to be operational by year-end
2026.

On February 25, 2026, we announced a 10-year strategic alliance between another of our subsidiary partners and a local hospital system whereby our subsidiary partner’s existing 10 outpatient physical therapy
clinics will become part of the hospital system’s clinical services network.

These arrangements will be accretive to our revenue, operating income and margins.

Medicare Reimbursement

The Medicare program reimburses outpatient rehabilitation providers based on the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (“MPFS”). Outpatient rehabilitation providers may enroll in Medicare as
institutional outpatient rehabilitation facilities (i.e., rehab agencies) or individual physical or occupational therapists in private practice. The majority of our clinicians are enrolled as individual physical or occupational therapists
in private practice while the remaining balance of providers are reimbursed through enrolled rehab agencies.

For calendar years 2021, 2022 and 2023, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) expected decreases in Medicare reimbursement were partially offset by one-time increases in
payments as a result of other legislation passed by Congress, resulting in decreases of approximately 3.5%, 0.75% and 2.0% in each of these years, respectively.  For January 1 through March 8 of 2024, CMS’s final rule resulted in an
approximate 3.5% decrease in Medicare payments for the therapy specialty. However, effective as of March 9, 2024, pursuant to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024, Congress minimized the reduction in Medicare payments for therapy
services for the balance of 2024, resulting in an approximate 1.8% reduction in Medicare payments for therapy services (rather than the 3.5% decrease). The MPFS for 2025 decreased Medicare reimbursement for therapy services by approximately
2.9% as compared to the reimbursement rates in effect for most of 2024. For 2026, the proposed MPFS is expected to increase Medicare reimbursement for therapy services by approximately 1.75% as compared to the reimbursement rates for 2025.

In the final 2020 MPFS rule, CMS clarified that when the physical therapist is involved for the entire duration of the service and the physical therapist assistant (“PTA”) provides
skilled therapy alongside the physical therapist, an identification of the PTA’s participation (as denoted by a “CQ modifier”) is not required. Also, when the same service (code) is furnished separately by the physical therapist and PTA,
CMS applies the de minimis standard to each 15-minute unit of codes, not on the total physical therapist and PTA time of the service. For dates of service on and after January 1, 2022, CMS pays for physical therapy and occupational therapy
services provided by PTAs and occupational therapist assistants (“OTAs”) at 85% of the otherwise applicable Part B payment amount. CMS allows a timed service to be billed without a CQ (for PTA’s) or CO (for OTA’s) modifier when a PTA or OTA
participates in providing care, but the physical therapist or occupational therapist meets the Medicare billing requirements without including the PTA’s or OTA’s minutes. This occurs when the physical therapist or occupational therapist
provides more minutes than the 15-minute midpoint.
