This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
This amount includes transaction and integration costs of $37.3 million and $27.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $1.5 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(2)This amount includes a litigation settlement loss of $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This amount also includes other litigation costs of $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
This amount includes a litigation settlement loss of $8.1 million and a gain of $32.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This amount also includes other litigation costs of $1.4 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Additionally, the nine months ended September 30, 2023, includes $4.4 million related to the impact of recent changes in Florida law regarding the use of letters of protection.
(3)This amount includes estimates for the net impact of the May 2023 cyber event for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This amount includes estimates for the net impact of a May 2023 cyber event as well as losses from a divested business for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Amounts presented for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 reflect losses incurred, net of insurance proceeds received, related to certain surgical facilities that were closed following Hurricane Ian.
(4)We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to assess operating performance, make business decisions and allocate resources. Non-controlling interests represent the interests of third parties, such as physicians, and in some cases, healthcare systems that own an interest in surgical facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. We believe that it is helpful to investors to present Adjusted EBITDA as defined above because it excludes the portion of net income attributable to these third-party interests and clarifies for investors our portion of Adjusted EBITDA generated by our surgical facilities and other operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating our financial performance. We believe such adjustments are appropriate, as the magnitude and frequency of such items can vary significantly and are not related to the assessment of normal operating performance. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
(5)Represents the impact of grant funds recognized, net of amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.

(1)Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flow provided by operating activities, less distributions to non-controlling interest holders and less maintenance capital expenditures, which are capital expenditures primarily to maintain our existing facilities. We use the non-GAAP measure of Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity to determine amounts we can reinvest in our core businesses, such as amounts available to make acquisitions and invest in growth projects. In order to provide a meaningful basis for comparison, we are providing information with respect to our Free Cash Flow for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities, which we believe to be the most directly comparable measure under GAAP. We are not presenting the comparative prior year period since we did not track capital expenditures in this manner prior to the current fiscal year. Our calculation of Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
From time to time, the Company incurs certain non-recurring gains or losses that are normally non-operational in nature and that it does not consider relevant in assessing its ongoing operating performance. When significant, Surgery Partners’ management and Board of Directors typically exclude these gains or losses when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and in certain instances when evaluating performance for incentive compensation purposes. Additionally, the Company believes that certain investors and equity analysts exclude these or similar items when evaluating the Company’s current or future operating performance and in making informed investment decisions regarding the Company. Accordingly, the Company provides adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders as supplements to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to the comparable GAAP financial measures as presented in the consolidated financial statements.
