Tenet's weak FCF limits the company's ability to repay debt; about $1 billion in cash proceeds from recent asset sales provide a debt reduction opportunity, but we believe some of this cash will be used to fund other capital deployment priorities, including purchase of the remaining equity interest in the USPI JV. Tenet's limited financial flexibility, most particularly its negative FCF (CFO less capital expenditures, cash distributions to minority interests and certain non-recurring items) generation, has been the major issue constraining the company's ratings over the past several years.

Software, even cutting edge machine learning, can only handle a minimal level of variation before it breaks down and becomes more hassle (and cost) than it's worth… Some firms have opted to lean very heavily on the fast automation and standardization side, and accept the rigidity that it inevitably introduces into their workflows… We've consciously gone a different direction… Our clients tend to think that constraining the advice startups get by boxing it into inflexible software (and pricing) is not only a penny-wise, pound-foolish confusion of priorities; it's also exactly the kind of approach that benefits investors at the expense of one-shot common stockholders.
