In response to Tenet’s September 12, 2000 news release concerning its first quarter results, a spokesman for the Tenet Shareholder Committee, nominee Michael Gallagher, stated:

“This claim of a projected miraculous performance after 5 years of abysmal results, strikes us as no coincidence coming on the eve of a shareholder vote to replace four incumbent directors. You can’t keep selling assets in order to pay down non-investment grade debt. Sooner or later you need to generate sustainable cash flow from operations after capital expenditures. Those concerns have only intensified after today’s news. We await the company’s full and complete disclosure of the numbers on October 3rd so that shareholders can make an informed decision.”
