IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

General

In this proxy statement, we refer to Astrana Health, Inc. as the “Company,” “Astrana,” “we,” “our,” and “us.” This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) of proxies to be voted at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the “2026 Annual Meeting”), which will be held at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 3rd Floor Conference Room, Alhambra, California 91801, or at adjournments or postponements thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The proxy materials, including this proxy statement, Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2026 Annual Report to Stockholders”), and form of proxy card, or the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”), are first being mailed or made available to stockholders on or about April 17, 2026. Stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically on an ongoing basis. A stockholder’s election to receive proxy materials by mail or electronically by email will remain in effect until the stockholder terminates such election. In addition, stockholders may obtain additional copies of our 2026 Annual Report to Stockholders and this proxy statement, without charge, by following the instructions on the Notice or by writing to us at our principal executive offices at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or from our website at https://ir.astranahealth.com/sec-filings/annual-meeting. Our 2026 Annual Report to Stockholders, which incorporates our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 12, 2026, without exhibits, is not to be regarded as proxy soliciting material or as a communication by means of which any solicitation of proxies is to be made.

Outstanding Securities and Quorum

The close of business on April 14, 2026 was the record date (the “Record Date”) for stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2026 Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, we had 55,713,532 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, issued and outstanding, according to the records maintained by our transfer agent. All of the shares of our common stock, issued and outstanding on the Record Date, are entitled to vote on each of the proposals to be voted upon at the 2026 Annual Meeting.

Our largest stockholder and a consolidated variable interest entity of the Company, Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation (“APC”), held 6,132,802 shares of our common stock as of the Record Date, or approximately 11.0% of our outstanding shares as of such date. Pursuant to a Voting and Registration Rights Agreement that APC and the Company entered into on September 11, 2019, in connection with the consummation of a series of interrelated transactions, APC is only permitted to vote up to 9.99% of the outstanding shares of our common stock at any time a vote is taken and will grant a proxy to the Company’s management to vote any excess shares in the same proportion as all other votes cast on any proposal coming before the Company’s stockholders.

The presence of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock, in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the 2026 Annual Meeting, including voting on each proposal to be voted on at the meeting. Broker non-votes and abstentions by stockholders from voting will be counted towards determining whether or not a quorum is present at the 2026 Annual Meeting.

Voting Procedures

Holders of shares of common stock will have one vote for each such share with regard to each matter to be voted upon. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors.

A broker non-vote occurs when shares held by a bank, broker, or other nominee are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker or nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote on the matter and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares. If your broker holds your shares in its name and you do not instruct your broker how to vote, your broker will only have discretion to vote your shares on “routine” matters. Where a proposal is not “routine,” a broker who has not received instructions from beneficial owners does not have discretion to vote uninstructed shares on that proposal. At the 2026 Annual Meeting, only the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2) is considered a routine matter. All other proposals are considered “non-routine,” and your broker will not have discretion to vote on these proposals.

For Proposal 1, you may vote for all the nominees to the Board, withhold your vote from all nominees, or vote for all nominees except any nominee(s) you specify. For Proposals 2 through 4 (as described below), you may vote for or against, or abstain from voting, on each proposal.

Proposal	Board Recommendation	Required Vote	Effect of Withhold Votes, Abstentions, and Broker Non-Votes
Proposal 1: Elect Our Directors	FOR all nominees	Plurality of the votes cast: the nine nominees that receive the most “For” votes will be elected.	Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.
Proposal 2: Ratify the Appointment of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm	FOR	The number of votes cast “For” this proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “Against” this proposal.	Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on this proposal. As this is a “routine” proposal, if you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, your broker generally will have discretion to vote your shares on this proposal.
Proposal 3: Approve, on an Advisory, Non-Binding Basis, Our Named Executive Officer Compensation	FOR	The number of votes cast “For” this proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “Against” this proposal.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.
Proposal 4: Approve the Amended and Restated 2024 Equity Incentive Plan	FOR	The number of votes cast “For” this proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “Against” this proposal.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the 2026 Annual Meeting. The inspector will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, withheld votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes, if any. Preliminary voting results will be announced at the 2026 Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we will file within four business days of the 2026 Annual Meeting.

Voting Methods

Voting by Record Holders

If you are a record holder, you can vote by attending the 2026 Annual Meeting and voting in person, or you can submit your vote by proxy in three ways:

●

By Internet: You may vote by submitting a proxy over the Internet, including by scanning the QR code provided on the proxy card or Notice with your mobile device. Please refer to the proxy card or Notice for instructions on how to vote by Internet. Your proxy must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 9, 2026, to be counted.

●

By Telephone: Stockholders located in the United States that receive proxy materials by mail may vote by submitting a proxy by telephone by calling the toll-free telephone number on the proxy card and following the instructions. Your proxy must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 9, 2026, to be counted.

●

By Mail: If you received proxy materials by mail, you can vote by submitting a proxy by mail by marking, dating, signing, and returning the accompanying proxy card. If you return your signed proxy card before the 2026 Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.

●

In Person at the 2026 Annual Meeting: If you attend the 2026 Annual Meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person, or you may vote by completing a ballot, which we will provide you with at the meeting.

You are encouraged to vote by telephone or Internet, or complete, date, sign, and return the proxy card provided or made available to you, prior to the 2026 Annual Meeting, regardless of whether or not you plan to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting.

Voting by Beneficial Holders

If, on the Record Date, your shares were held not in your name, but rather through a bank, broker, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the 2026 Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, broker, or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account and should follow the instructions contained in the Notice, proxy card, or voting instruction form to vote by Internet, telephone, or mail. If you want to vote your shares in person at the 2026 Annual Meeting, contact the bank, broker, or other nominee who holds your shares to obtain a legal proxy and bring it with you to the 2026 Annual Meeting. You will not be able to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting unless you have proof of ownership from your bank, broker, or other nominee. You should contact your bank, broker, or other nominee, or refer to the instructions provided by your bank, broker, or other nominee for further information.

Voting by Participants in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan

If you hold shares through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, you will receive a separate voting instruction form to instruct the custodian for the plan as to how to vote your shares. Your proxy must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 9, 2026, to be counted. Participants in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan may attend and participate in the 2026 Annual Meeting, but will not be able to vote shares held in the plan in person during the 2026 Annual Meeting. With respect to our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, we consider all shares of common stock for which the custodian has not received timely instructions not present for quorum purposes, and those shares will not be voted by the custodian.

Voting by Proxy and Changing or Revoking Your Vote

Shares of common stock represented by proxies submitted over the Internet or by telephone, or for which proxy cards are properly executed and returned to us, will be voted at the 2026 Annual Meeting in accordance with the stockholders’ instructions contained therein. In the absence of contrary instructions, shares represented by such proxies will be voted FOR the election of each of the director nominees named on Proposal 1, FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 on Proposal 2, FOR the approval, on an advisory, non-binding basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers on Proposal 3, and FOR the approval of the Amended and Restated 2024 Equity Incentive Plan on Proposal 4. Management does not know of any matters to be presented at the 2026 Annual Meeting other than those set forth in this proxy statement and the accompanying notice of the 2026 Annual Meeting. If other matters should properly come before the meeting, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Any stockholder of record has the right to revoke his, her, or its proxy at any time before it is voted at the 2026 Annual Meeting by submitting another properly completed proxy card with a later date; by submitting a new proxy by telephone or Internet; by giving timely written notice that such holder is revoking his, her or its proxy to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices that bears a later date than the date of the proxy such holder wants to revoke and is received prior to the 2026 Annual Meeting; or by appearing at the 2026 Annual Meeting and voting in person. Attending the 2026 Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy. If your shares are held by a bank, broker, or other nominee, and you provide voting instructions to that nominee on a form received from the nominee, you may revoke or change your voting instructions only by contacting the nominee who holds your shares. Beneficial holders may not vote in person at the 2026 Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from the bank, broker, or other nominee. In such event, your attendance at the 2026 Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke prior voting instructions. If you are an employee stockholder who holds shares through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, you should contact the custodian for instructions on how to revoke your proxy or change your vote.

Householding of Proxy Materials

Some banks, brokers, and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of our proxy statement and annual report to stockholders may have been sent to multiple stockholders in your household. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement in the future, or if you and other stockholders sharing your address are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials and you would like to receive only a single copy of such materials in the future, please notify your broker. You may also call (866) 540-7095 or write to: Householding Department, Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717, and include your name, the name of your broker or other nominee, and your account number(s). If you share an address with another stockholder and have received only one set of this year’s proxy materials and you wish to receive a separate copy, please notify us in writing at: Astrana Health, Inc., 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, Attention: Corporate Secretary, and we will deliver a separate copy to you promptly.

Internet Availability of Proxy Materials

We are furnishing proxy materials for the 2026 Annual Meeting to all of our stockholders via the Internet by mailing the Notice, instead of mailing or emailing copies of our proxy materials to our stockholders. However, we may still mail copies of such proxy materials to some stockholders. The Notice directs our stockholders to a website where they can access our proxy materials, including our proxy statement and our 2026 Annual Report to Stockholders, and view instructions on how to vote via the Internet, a mobile device, or by telephone. If you received such a Notice and would prefer to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice. If you have previously elected to receive our proxy materials via email, you will continue to receive access to those materials electronically unless you elect otherwise.

Attending the Annual Meeting

Only our stockholders as of the Record Date are entitled to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting. If you own our stock as a record holder, your name will be on a list of record holders, and you will be able to gain entry with government-issued photo identification, such as a driver’s license, state-issued identification card, or passport. If you beneficially own our stock held in street name, in order to gain entry, you must present a valid legal proxy from the record holder of our stock as of the Record Date and government-issued photo identification. You should contact your bank, broker, or other nominee to learn how to obtain a legal proxy. Participants in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan may attend and participate in the 2026 Annual Meeting, but will not be able to vote shares held in the plan during the 2026 Annual Meeting. Employee Stock Purchase Plan participants must vote in advance of the 2026 Annual Meeting using the method described above. All stockholders must register at the reception desk and sign the attendance sheet before entering the room for the 2026 Annual Meeting. In fairness to all attendees and in the interest of an orderly and constructive meeting, we ask that you abide by the rules of procedure for the 2026 Annual Meeting, which will be available to you when you register at the reception desk. Cameras, recording devices, and other electronic devices are prohibited at the meeting.

Stockholder List

A list of our stockholders of record as of the Record Date entitled to vote at the 2026 Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any such stockholder for any purpose germane to the 2026 Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at our corporate headquarters located at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, Alhambra, California 91801, for a period of 10 days ending on the day before the 2026 Annual Meeting. Please contact the Company’s Corporate Secretary at (626) 282-0288 or by email at investors@astranahealth.com if you wish to inspect the list of stockholders prior to the meeting.

Persons Making the Solicitation

We are required by law to convene annual meetings of stockholders at which our directors are elected. The Board is soliciting proxies from our stockholders for the 2026 Annual Meeting. The entire cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. These costs will include, among other items, the expense of preparing, assembling, printing, and mailing the proxy materials or Notice to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners. Our directors, officers, and employees may solicit proxies in person, by email or telephone, or by other means of communication, without receiving additional compensation. We will reimburse brokers, banks and other nominees who hold shares of common stock in their names for the expenses of furnishing proxy materials to beneficial owners of the shares. We may retain a proxy solicitor in conjunction with the 2026 Annual Meeting, and its employees may assist us in the solicitation. We will pay all costs of soliciting proxies, including, in the event we retain a proxy solicitor, their fee and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, if any.

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Stockholders will be asked at the 2026 Annual Meeting to elect nine directors who will constitute the full Board. Each elected director will hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders, and the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

The Board has nominated the following individuals for election to the Board: Kenneth Sim, M.D., Thomas S. Lam, M.D., M.P.H., John Chiang, Weili Dai, Linda Dong, J. Lorraine Estradas, R.N., B.S.N., M.P.H., Mitchell W. Kitayama, Matthew Mazdyasni, and David G. Schmidt. All of the nominees are incumbent directors. Additional information about these nominees is provided below.

Board Nomination and Election of Directors

Following a rigorous review process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended the nine incumbent directors for re-election at the 2026 Annual Meeting as they continue to contribute to the mix of experience, skills, and qualifications that we seek to be represented on the Board. Each nominee has been nominated by the Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

In the event that a nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a director at the time of the 2026 Annual Meeting, all proxies received by the proxy holders named on the accompanying proxy card will be voted FOR the election of such other person as the proxy holders may designate in such nominee’s place. In the event that additional persons are nominated for election as directors, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them for each of the nominees listed below, unless instructions are given to the contrary. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board is not aware of any nominee who is unable or unwilling to serve as a director. If elected at the 2026 Annual Meeting, a director will serve until the annual meeting of our stockholders to be held in 2027 and a successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR ALL” OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

BACKGROUND OF DIRECTORS

The following sets forth certain information concerning the nominees to the Board, all of whom are incumbent directors of the Company. The information presented below regarding each nominee’s specific experience, expertise, qualifications, attributes, and skills led the Board to conclude that such nominee should serve as a director.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Code of Ethics and Other Governance Documents

We maintain a corporate governance page on our website at https://ir.astranahealth.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents, which includes information regarding the Company’s corporate governance practices. Our Code of Ethics (which applies to all of our officers, directors and employees), Corporate Governance Guidelines, Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy, Audit Committee Policy Regarding Complaint Procedures for Accounting and Auditing Matters, Related Party Transaction Policy, charters of the three standing committees of the Board, Compensation Recovery Policy, Insider Trading Policy, Lead Independent Director Charter, and Stock Ownership Guidelines are each available on that page of our website, in addition to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K regarding an amendment to, or waiver from, a provision of our Code of Ethics by posting such information on our website at the web address specified above within four business days following the date of the amendment or waiver. In addition, we will provide a copy of any of these documents without charge to any stockholder upon written request made to: Astrana Health, Inc., 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Director Independence

The Board has determined that a majority of its current members meet the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment, and affiliations, including family relationships, the Board has affirmatively determined that each of John Chiang, Weili Dai, Mitchell W. Kitayama, Matthew Mazdyasni, and David G. Schmidt satisfies the independence criteria in the applicable Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules. The Board also has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board has determined that all such committee members are independent under applicable Nasdaq and SEC rules for committee memberships, and that each member of the Audit Committee also meets the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In making such determinations, the Board considered all relevant facts and circumstances, including commercial, industrial, banking, employment and consulting, legal, accounting, charitable, and familial relationships, not merely from the standpoint of a director or nominee, but also from that of persons or organizations affiliated with the director or nominee.

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. We value a Board that possesses a broad spectrum of experiences, characteristics, attributes, and skills. The Board seeks to comprise itself of members who possess a range of relevant skills, experience, and expertise that relate directly to our management and operations, and which enable them to effectively oversee the management of the business and drive strategy that creates long-term, sustainable stockholder value.

Board Meetings

The Board held 14 meetings and acted by written consent four times during 2025. Each of our incumbent directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and the committees on which such director served during 2025. While directors are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders, the Board has not adopted a formal policy with respect to such attendance. Six directors attended the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

Our independent directors and our non-management directors each meet periodically in executive session without management present to discuss our operations, policies, and practices, as well as other matters relating to us or the functioning of the Board.

Board Leadership Structure

The Company believes that independent board oversight is an essential component of strong corporate performance. We also believe that the decision as to whether the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separated, and whether an executive or an independent director should serve as the Chairman, should be based upon the circumstances facing the Company. Maintaining a flexible policy allows the Board to choose the leadership structure that best serves the interests of the Company and its stockholders at any particular time. The Board also believes its risk oversight framework would be effective under a variety of leadership structures.

The Board continues to believe that its current leadership structure, consisting of a non-independent Executive Chairman and Vice Chairman, both of whom previously served as a Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Company, counterbalanced by an independent Board led by a Lead Independent Director and independent directors chairing and serving on each of the standing Board committees, is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. In the Board’s view, separating the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Board chair allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the Executive Chairman to lead the Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to and oversight of management. Our Vice Chairman presides over Board meetings in the event that the Executive Chairman is not present and participates in the Board and committee agenda review process. Having former Co-Chief Executive Officers of the Company serve as Executive Chairman and Vice Chairman also enables us to leverage their in-depth knowledge of and experience with our business to provide advice to and oversight of management, as well as their ability to identify strategic priorities and lead the Board’s discussions and execution of strategy. At the same time, our Lead Independent Director, Mitchell Kitayama, works with the Executive Chairman to schedule and set the agenda for Board meetings, acts as a liaison between the non-management directors as a group and management, and exercises additional oversight on behalf of the independent directors. We recognize that our Board leadership structure is somewhat unique but we believe that it is the right structure for the Company at this time. The Board will continue to regularly review the appropriateness of this structure and consider stockholder feedback from our ongoing engagements.

Lead Independent Director

In selecting the Lead Independent Director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews potential candidates’ qualifications and attributes, before making a recommendation to the independent directors, who, after review, elect the Lead Independent Director. Mr. Kitayama was first elected as the Lead Independent Director in 2018. In electing the Lead Independent Director, the independent directors consider the following selection criteria:

	●	Qualifies as independent, in accordance with relevant SEC and Nasdaq guidelines.
	●	Able to commit the time and level of engagement required to fulfill the substantial responsibilities of the role.
	●	Effective communication skills to facilitate discussions among members of the Board, including between the independent directors and the Executive Chairman, and to engage with stockholders and key stakeholders.
	●	Possesses a strong rapport with other members of the Board.
	●	Demonstrates high personal integrity and ethical character.
	●	Skills and experience broadly in line with the Company’s corporate strategy.

The Lead Independent Director has the following responsibilities (and may also perform other functions at the Board’s or independent directors’ request), as detailed in the Lead Independent Director Charter:

	●	Board Leadership: provides leadership to the Board in any situation where the Executive Chairman’s and Vice Chairman’s roles may be perceived to be in conflict and chairs Board meetings in the absence of the Executive Chairman and Vice Chairman, including executive sessions of the independent directors.
	●	Board Agenda, Schedule, and Information: reviews and, when appropriate, makes changes to the Board meeting agendas and schedules and to other information sent to directors.
	●	Leadership of Independent Director Meetings: calls and leads independent director meetings without any management directors or Company employees present.
	●	Chairman-Independent Director Liaison: serves as the principal liaison between the Executive Chairman and the independent directors (although every director has direct access to the Executive Chairman).
	●	Stockholder Communications: is available for consultation and direct communication with the Company’s stockholders.
	●	Director Candidates: interviews, along with the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, all director candidates, and makes recommendations to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Risk Oversight Function of the Board

The Board takes an active role in overseeing the Company’s risk governance framework and corporate strategy and seeks to ensure the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders are being served. The Board believes that evaluating the executive team’s management of the risks confronting the Company is one of its most important areas of oversight. In carrying out this responsibility, the Board is assisted by its committees, each of which considers risks within its areas of primary responsibility and expertise and apprises the full Board of significant matters and management’s response. In performing the risk oversight function, the Board and each committee have full access to management, as well as the ability to engage advisors. The specific risk areas of focus for the Board and each of its committees are summarized below.

Board of Directors

Oversees the Company’s risk governance framework, general corporate strategy, including merger and acquisition activity, and other matters reserved to the full Board. Reviews and discusses with management significant risks affecting the Company, including matters escalated by its committees from within their respective areas of oversight. Oversees risks relating to mergers and acquisitions, integration, strategy, contracting, and operations.

Audit Committee

Oversees financial matters, including accounting and internal controls, business conduct and ethics, related party transactions, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence-related risks, tax, and legal and regulatory compliance.

Compensation Committee

Oversees the design and administration of executive compensation programs and policies, director compensation, and human capital management, including talent acquisition, development, and retention.

Nominating Committee

Oversees Board structure and independence, executive succession planning, corporate governance practices, political contributions, and sustainability policies, goals and programs.

Management

Led by our Chief Executive Officer and executive team, develops and executes our business strategy, manages operations, implements and supervises day-to-day risk management processes, and reports to the Board and its committees on significant matters.

Board Committees

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which is comprised solely of independent directors. Each committee operates under a written charter, which is available at https://ir.astranahealth.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents. The table below lists the current leadership and membership of each committee.

In addition to the Board committees described above, the Board has approved the formation of an advisory board, which is tasked with advising the Board and management on state and federal health regulations and trends in the corporate practice of medicine.

Evaluation and Nomination of Director Candidates

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has primary responsibility for developing recommendations to the Board as to the skills and qualifications required of directors and other criteria to be potentially considered in selecting candidates for director positions on the Board. This process includes a consideration of independence, skills, experience, industry backgrounds, talents, and qualifications in the context of the needs of the Board and the Company, as well as the ability of directors (and candidates for director) to devote sufficient time to performing their duties in an effective manner. Directors are expected to exemplify the highest standards of personal and professional integrity and to constructively challenge management through their active participation and questioning. To ensure that the Board continues to evolve and be refreshed in a manner that serves the changing business and strategic needs of the Company, before recommending for re-nomination a slate of incumbent directors for an additional term, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates whether incumbent directors possess the requisite skills and perspective, both individually and collectively.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also has responsibility for periodically identifying and recruiting new members to the Board. Through discussions with the Executive Chairman of the Board, Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer, and other Board members, specific skill sets, experience, and knowledge important for the new Board member to possess will be identified and prioritized. Potential candidates meeting these criteria will then be identified by professional recruiting agencies, reputation, or existing Board members or officers. Candidates will be interviewed by the Executive Chairman, Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer, and/or other members of the Board to ensure that candidates not only possess the requisite skills and characteristics but also the personality, ability, judgment, leadership traits, work ethic, and independence to effectively contribute as a member of the Board. After a successful candidate has been identified by the Board, the Board will either appoint the candidate as a member of the Board or nominate the candidate for election by the Company’s stockholders at the next annual meeting of stockholders.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recognizes that having a Board with a variety of viewpoints, backgrounds, and experiences provides a more comprehensive decision-making process. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a diversity policy (however that term may be defined). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee strives to achieve a balance of backgrounds and perspectives on the Board and its committees and will assess the skills and attributes of our Board as a whole and of each individual director when evaluating whether prospective candidates possess complementary and supplementary skills and attributes that would strengthen our Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers potential candidates properly recommended by stockholders, directors, officers, advisors, third-party search firms, or other appropriate sources. Persons recommended by stockholders are generally considered on the same basis as candidates from other sources. If a stockholder wishes to propose a director candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the stockholder must follow the procedures and comply with the requirements described in “Stockholder Proposals” at the end of this proxy statement.

In recommending to the Board the director nominees for election at the 2026 Annual Meeting, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered the factors described above, as well as each nominee’s previous service on the Board, which the committee believes provides a desirable level of continuity and institutional knowledge with respect to the Board’s deliberations. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considered the specific qualifications, attributes, and skills that each nominee possesses and contributes to the Board, as described in the respective nominee’s biography included above under “Background of Directors”.

Director Board Service and Resignation Policy

Pursuant to the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, unless prior authorization in writing has been obtained from the Board, an individual member of the Board should not sit on more than four public company boards (including service on the Company’s Board), or serve as an executive officer or an executive chair of any public company while serving on more than two public company boards (including the board or boards for the companies at which such person serves as an executive officer and/or executive chair). Directors should advise the Executive Chairman in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on another public company board. In addition, directors should offer to tender their resignation in the event of a change in the principal job responsibilities that they held at the time of their election to the Board or the principal job responsibilities taken subsequent to their election to the Board.

Board Self-Evaluation

The Board and each of its committees regularly undertake a self-evaluation process to help ensure continued effectiveness. This process is overseen by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and may vary each year in order to balance the benefits of different approaches.

Sustainability

We believe it is critical to maintain the highest ethical standards, and we have policies in place to ensure that our directors and employees operate ethically and with integrity, including our Code of Ethics. We also make a compliance hotline available to our employees. The hotline is serviced by a third-party provider that is available by phone or online 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to help ensure any compliance concerns can be reported and addressed in a timely and appropriate manner.

We believe that good corporate citizenship includes responsiveness to issues that materially impact our stakeholders and the communities in which we operate. We believe that culturally-competent care is essential for ensuring patient satisfaction and improving health outcomes. As an organization built by and for our community, we prioritize building teams that reflect the communities we serve. We understand the importance of strong community relationships in achieving our business goals, and we actively engage with local communities through volunteer programs, sponsorships, and educational initiatives.

Our Board provides overall oversight of our sustainability efforts, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews our sustainability policies and practices, including those relating to corporate social responsibility. In addition, the Compensation Committee regularly reviews the Company’s strategies related to human capital management, including talent acquisition, development and retention, and the Audit Committee reviews the Company’s sustainability disclosures and the adequacy and effectiveness of applicable internal controls related to such disclosures.

Human Capital

We are committed to supporting the professional development of our employees, providing competitive compensation and benefits and a safe and inclusive workplace that enables employees to achieve their full potential. We measure employee engagement on an ongoing basis to create a more innovative, productive, and profitable company. Results from engagement surveys are used to implement programs and processes designed to support employee retention and satisfaction. The Company believes a workplace that promotes fairness and opportunity fosters innovation and cultivates an environment filled with unique perspectives and growth. Respect for human rights is fundamental to the Company’s business and its commitment to ethical business conduct.

Our dedication to employee growth is reflected in the various learning and development programs offered at Astrana. We have internal learning and development programs as well as a professional development reimbursement program, to empower employees to enhance their skill sets and provide opportunities for advancement within the Company. Our learning and development programs include a comprehensive portfolio of enterprise programs designed to strengthen leadership capabilities, improve operational performance, and support organizational integration across the Company. We further expanded employee development by creating educational newsletters and enhancing compliance and system-training pathways. These efforts advanced workforce readiness, supported smoother transitions during organizational changes, and reinforced our commitment to developing talent that drives long-term growth.

We actively promote and support employees who seek to donate their time, talents, and resources to make a positive impact on their communities and charitable causes. In 2025, Astrana contributed to several charitable organizations, including Susan G. Komen and Eisner Health, and Astrana employees participated in volunteer efforts with the Los Angeles Dream Center and Los Angeles Mission.

Cybersecurity

Astrana operates in an increasingly interconnected and digitized world, where the protection of sensitive information and the resilience of our information technology systems are paramount to our mission of delivering exceptional healthcare services. Cybersecurity is a critical component of our enterprise risk management program, reflecting our commitment to safeguarding the privacy and security of the patients, employees, and others who entrust us with their data.

As a healthcare organization, we manage large quantities of protected health information (“PHI”), personally identifiable information (“PII”), and other sensitive data. Recognizing the heightened risks posed by cyber threats, we have implemented a cybersecurity framework that is designed to proactively identify, assess, and mitigate the risks associated with these threats. This includes protection against ransomware, phishing attacks, data breaches, and the evolving tactics of sophisticated cyber adversaries, as well as other types of cyber threats. Our cybersecurity program is built on industry-recognized standards, and we continuously adapt our program to defend against the changing threat landscape.

Cybersecurity Governance

Astrana’s governance framework reflects our commitment to managing cybersecurity risks with accountability and transparency. This framework is rooted in collaboration among executive leadership, employee operational teams, and the Board, resulting in comprehensive oversight at every level of the organization.

Board Oversight

The Board oversees cybersecurity as part of its enterprise risk management responsibilities. The Audit Committee reviews cybersecurity risks, including IT internal controls, the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”), business continuity plans, disaster recovery programs, and data protection initiatives. The Audit Committee also receives regular reports from management, including the CISO (as defined below), on key cybersecurity metrics, threat landscapes, risk mitigation strategies, and significant cybersecurity or data privacy incidents (if any). In addition, the Audit Committee receives regular reports from other operational committees of the Company, ensuring a holistic view of risk management.

Executive Leadership

Our cybersecurity program is led by the Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”), a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) with over 25 years of experience in technology, cybersecurity strategy, risk management, and regulatory compliance, including extensive industry experience. The CISO works closely with the Company’s executive leadership to implement and oversee the Company’s cybersecurity initiatives. The CISO is also responsible for broader IT governance and risk management, resulting in a cohesive approach to protecting our technology infrastructure and sensitive data.

AI Policy and Governance

Astrana recognizes the transformative potential of AI in healthcare and the corresponding responsibility to implement it ethically and securely. Our AI policy and governance framework emphasizes transparency, fairness, and accountability in the use of AI technologies across our operations. This includes data privacy safeguards, monitoring to mitigate algorithmic bias, and adherence to industry best practices and regulatory standards. An internal committee comprising experts in technology, legal, compliance, and healthcare operations ensures that AI deployments meet ethical and cybersecurity standards. Periodic audits and risk assessments are conducted to evaluate the performance, reliability, and security of AI systems in critical workflows. The Board oversees the ethical deployment of automated intelligence and machine learning, ensuring algorithmic accountability and the mitigation of security risks inherent in AI-driven clinical workflows.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Astrana utilizes a cross-functional governance structure that engages enterprise risk management, compliance, IT, legal, privacy, and data governance teams. Our risk management / cyber working group, which includes certain of our senior leaders, including operations, finance, internal audit, IT, cyber, legal, and communications, meets at least four times per year to discuss significant risks to the Company identified by our enterprise-wide risk management process, including cybersecurity risks identified by our cybersecurity risk management program. The group also discusses the steps management has taken to identify, monitor, assess, and control or avoid such exposures, reviews performance measures against the Company’s risk appetite and tolerance, and provides recommendations for corrective action where appropriate. This collaborative approach enables a holistic evaluation of cybersecurity risks and ensures that identified threats are promptly addressed.

Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801; or by email to: investors@astranahealth.com. The Company’s Corporate Secretary reviews and promptly forwards communications to the directors as appropriate. Communications involving substantive accounting or auditing matters are forwarded to the Audit Committee Chair.

Review, Approval, or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

The Board has adopted a written policy setting forth our procedures for reviewing, and approving or ratifying, transactions with an executive officer, director, or nominee for election as a director of the Company, a greater than 5% beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock, or an immediate family member of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Related Persons”). The policy covers transactions, arrangements, or relationships in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds, or is expected to exceed, $120,000 in any fiscal year of the Company, the Company or any of its controlled subsidiaries is a participant, and a Related Person had, has, or is expected to have a direct or indirect material interest (a “Covered Transaction”). The Audit Committee is responsible for ratifying or approving a Covered Transaction.

In reviewing a Covered Transaction, the Audit Committee considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including:

	●	the Related Person’s interest and involvement in the transaction;
	●	the nature of the Company’s participation in the transaction;
	●	the Related Person’s relationship to the Company;
	●	whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business of the Company;
	●	the availability of unrelated third parties as alternative counterparties to the proposed transaction;
	●	whether the transaction is proposed to be, or was, entered into on an arms-length basis or on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party under the same or similar circumstances;
	●	whether the transaction would impair the independence of a director or a nominee for election as a director of the Company under the Nasdaq listing rules;
	●	the purpose of, and the potential benefits and materiality to the Company of, the transaction;
	●	the risks and limitations that may arise as a result of or in connection with the proposed transaction, including any potential reputational risk; and
	●	any other information that would be material to our investors in light of the context of the particular transaction and the Related Person.

Certain Covered Transactions are deemed to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee under this policy, including:

	●	any compensation paid to an executive officer of the Company for his or her services to the Company if the compensation is, or would be required to be, reported in the Company’s proxy statements and the Compensation Committee has approved, or recommended that the Board approve, such compensation, or the transaction involves the recovery of erroneously awarded compensation, computed as provided in the Nasdaq listing rules and the Exchange Act, and is disclosed in the Company’s proxy statements;
	●	any compensation paid to a director of the Company for services to the Company as a director if the compensation is required to be reported in the Company’s proxy statements;
	●	any transaction where the Related Person’s interest arises solely from the ownership of the Company’s common stock and all holders of the Company’s common stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis;
	●	any transaction involving a Related Person where the rates or charges involved are determined by competitive bids;
	●	any transaction between the Company or its controlled subsidiary and an entity with an executive officer of the Company serving as a nominee stockholder (including where the officer as a licensed physician, rather than the Company, is required by corporate practice of medicine or similar law to serve as the stockholder of such entity on behalf of the Company or its subsidiary in order to achieve certain corporate, regulatory and/or accounting treatment) and where such officer derives no direct financial benefit from such status; and
	●	any transaction between the Company or its controlled subsidiary and an entity that has been reported in the Company’s statement of income for its last fiscal year on a consolidated basis (including any variable interest entity of the Company).

The Audit Committee may establish such other categories of transactions that shall be deemed pre-approved.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

In July 2024, the Board approved an updated compensation program for the non-employee members of the Board who are compensated for their service on the Board. In June 2025, with the assistance of Pearl Meyer, our compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s non-employee director compensation program, including benchmarking against the Company’s peers, and did not recommend to the Board any changes to the director compensation program. Accordingly, during 2025, the Company’s non-employee director compensation program consisted of the following:

●

An annual cash retainer of $80,000, paid in monthly installments, plus an additional annual cash retainer of $32,500 for any non-employee director serving as Lead Director or Board Chair;

●

An additional cash retainer, paid in monthly installments, for each non-employee director serving as chair of one of the following Board committees, in the following amounts: Audit Committee Chair – $25,000, Compensation Committee Chair – $20,000, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair – $15,000;

●

An additional cash retainer, paid in monthly installments, for each non-employee director serving as a member, but not as the chair, of one of the following Board committees, in the following amounts: Audit Committee member – $12,000, Compensation Committee member – $10,000, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee member – $10,000;

●

No additional compensation for service as a member or chair of the Strategy Committee; and

●

An annual award of restricted stock to each non-employee director with a grant date value equal to $170,000, which vests, subject to the non-employee director’s continued service, on the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company.

The following table reflects the compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to our directors for the year ended December 31, 2025. Dr. Sim is not included in the following table because he received no separate compensation for his service as a director of the Company, and all compensation earned by him during the year ended December 31, 2025 is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table below. Dr. Lam, who served as an employee of AHM during the year ended December 31, 2025, did not receive additional compensation for his service as a director. Ms. Estradas does not receive any compensation from the Company for her service as a director.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dr. Lam served both as Vice Chairman of the Board and as an employee of AHM. Dr. Lam was not separately compensated for his service on the Board during 2025. The amount shown in the table above reflects the base salary and benefits that Dr. Lam received as compensation for his service as an employee of AHM during 2025. Specifically, the “Other Compensation” reported for Dr. Lam includes $950,000 in base salary, a discretionary cash bonus for fiscal 2025 in the amount of $20,000, $15,218 for health, dental, and life insurance premiums, an estimated $7,000 of 401(k) matching contribution by the Company, and $312 for work-from-home and commuting reimbursement. Dr. Lam held an aggregate of 29,502 unexercised stock options to purchase and 104,167 shares of unvested restricted stock as of December 31, 2025, of which 26,667 shares were subject to performance-based vesting conditions.

In addition, as the Board believes that it is important to promote the alignment of the interests of non-employee directors with the interests of the Company’s stockholders, the Board has adopted formal stock ownership guidelines. Under the guidelines, each non-employee director is required to hold shares of the Company’s stock in an amount equal to three times the annual cash retainer. In addition, the Board has designed Dr. Lam as a key employee subject to the stock ownership guidelines; as such, he is required to hold shares of the Company’s stock in an amount equal to three times his annual base salary. Directors (including Dr. Lam) have five years from the date of implementation of the stock ownership guidelines (i.e., April 2029) or, if later, five years from their initial appointment as an executive or director to attain the applicable ownership threshold. Additional information regarding the stock ownership guidelines is described below under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Other Practices, Policies, and Guidelines—Stock Ownership Guidelines.”

For each of the directors listed below, the deadline to meet the applicable stock ownership guidelines is April 2029. The following table shows each non-employee director’s and Dr. Lam’s compliance status as of December 31, 2025:

Name	Total Shares Required (#)⁽¹⁾	Total Shares Held (#)⁽²⁾	Guidelines Exceeded Ratio⁽³⁾

PROPOSAL 2 – RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. EY has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since April 2020. In deciding to appoint EY, the Audit Committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with EY and concluded that EY has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence for the year ending December 31, 2026. The Board recommends that our stockholders ratify the appointment of EY as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. While we are not required to have our stockholders ratify the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm, we are doing so because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. If the stockholders do not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain EY. If the selection of EY is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may still direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders.

Representatives of EY are expected to be present at the 2026 Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Audit and Other Fees

The following table presents fees for professional audit services and other services rendered by EY for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

(2)

Represents financial due diligence services related to mergers and acquisitions.

(3)

Tax fees consist of various permissible tax compliance, tax planning, and advisory service fees by EY.

The Audit Committee has determined that all services performed by EY were, and are, compatible with maintaining the independence of EY. The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm, which may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services, and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval. For additional information concerning the Audit Committee and its activities with EY, please see “Audit Committee Report” below.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

PROPOSAL 3 – ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act require that we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote, on a non-binding advisory basis, on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. Accordingly, we are asking stockholders to approve an advisory resolution on the compensation of our named executive officers as reported in this proxy statement, commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay” vote. Although the say-on-pay vote is advisory and therefore non-binding on us, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review and consider the voting results when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation program. In accordance with the preference of our stockholders, as expressed in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation at our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and as accepted by the Board, we hold annual advisory votes on the compensation of the named executive officers. Stockholders are next expected to have the opportunity to vote on the frequency of future votes on named executive officer compensation at the 2028 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation. Instead, the vote relates to the overall compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. We encourage stockholders to read the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement, which provides an overview of our executive compensation policies and procedures. The Summary Compensation Table and other related compensation tables and narrative provide detailed information on the compensation of our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that the policies and procedures articulated in the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement are an important and effective means of encouraging our named executive officers to achieve the Company’s goals and that the compensation of the named executive officers reported in this proxy statement has contributed to our success.

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and as a matter of good corporate governance, we are asking stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution at the 2026 Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in the Executive Compensation section of this proxy statement and the Summary Compensation Table and the related compensation tables, notes, and narrative in this proxy statement.”

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on our Company, our Board, or our Compensation Committee. The outcome of this advisory vote does not overrule any decision by us or our Board (or any committee thereof), create or imply any change to the fiduciary duties of the Company or our Board (or any committee thereof), or create or imply any additional fiduciary duties for the Company or our Board (or any committee thereof). However, our Compensation Committee and Board value the opinions to be expressed by our stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY, NON-BINDING BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSAL 4 – APPROVAL OF THE ASTRANA HEALTH, INC.
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2024 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Introduction

The Astrana Health, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) was originally adopted by the Board on February 28, 2024 and approved by our stockholders at the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2024 Plan was amended and restated in its entirety effective as of March 26, 2025, and was most recently approved by the stockholders of the Company at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. On March 25, 2026, the Board approved the amendment and restatement of the 2024 Plan, in order to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan and to extend the term of the 2024 Plan, subject to the approval of the amended and restated 2024 Plan by our stockholders at the 2026 Annual Meeting. We are recommending that stockholders approve the amendment and restatement of the 2024 Plan because we believe that the 2024 Plan continues to be essential to our success, by allowing the Company to provide incentives to attract and retain non-employee directors, officers, key employees, and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries and to align their interests with those of our stockholders.

Stockholders are being asked to approve the amendment and restatement of the 2024 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2024 Plan by 1,000,000 shares (from 4,100,000 to 5,100,000 shares) and to extend the term of the 2024 Plan by approximately one year.

As of the Record Date, approximately 940,807 shares remained available for issuance under the 2024 Plan. Based on our historical equity grant practices, we believe that, if our stockholders approve the amendment and restatement of the 2024 Plan, the increased share reserve will be sufficient for us to continue granting equity awards for approximately two years. This estimate was determined based on a review of the Company’s anticipated equity compensation requirements and a range of future stock price scenarios. However, the actual duration of the share reserve under the 2024 Plan will depend on currently unknown factors, such as the Company’s future stock price, changes in participation, our hiring and promotion activity, future grant practices, award type mix and levels, competitive market practices, acquisitions and divestitures, and the rate of returned shares due to forfeitures. Absent stockholder approval of the amendment and restatement of the 2024 Plan, we may be required to increase the cash components of our compensation program, which may inhibit our ability to align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders.

The Board believes that an equity-based incentive program is an important factor in attracting and retaining highly qualified officers, employees, non-employee directors, and consultants, and that equity-based incentives help to align the interests of those persons with the interests of our stockholders. Further, the Board believes that the proposed increase in the share reserve under the 2024 Plan is necessary for the Company to continue to provide appropriate incentives for outstanding service and to assist in recruiting and retaining highly qualified individuals as employees, non-employee directors and consultants. In determining the number of additional shares requested for stockholder approval under the amended and restated 2024 Plan, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered the Company’s historical and expected usage of equity compensation, the potential dilution resulting from our equity compensation plans, and the importance of an effective equity compensation program to the Company’s success.

Certain key features of the 2024 Plan, as amended and restated, are described below:

Feature	Description
Reasonable Share Reserve	The total number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2024 Plan will be limited to 5,100,000 shares (representing an increase of 1,000,000 shares over the 4,100,000 shares originally approved under the 2024 Plan).
Responsible Share Counting Provisions	The 2024 Plan does not permit “liberal share recycling.” Only awards that are cancelled, forfeited, or paid only in cash can be added back to the 2024 Plan’s share reserve. Shares withheld to satisfy a tax withholding obligation or pay the exercise price of a stock option will not be added back to the 2024 Plan’s share reserve, and neither will any shares repurchased by the Company using stock option proceeds.
Minimum Vesting Periods	The 2024 Plan generally requires that awards be granted with a minimum vesting period of at least one year for full vesting of the award (or, for non-employee directors, a period of at least 50 weeks ending on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders). However, 5% of the total number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2024 Plan may be used without imposing this minimum vesting requirement.
Director Compensation Limit	The 2024 Plan includes an annual limit on compensation of our non-employee directors (other than our Chair and Vice Chair). Specifically, the aggregate grant date fair value of all awards granted to a non-employee director (other than a Chair or Vice Chair of the Board) under the 2024 Plan during any single fiscal year, together with any cash compensation earned by that non-employee director during the fiscal year, may not exceed $750,000.
No “Liberal” Change of Control Definition	The 2024 Plan does not include a “liberal” change of control definition, which means that a change of control must actually occur in order for the change of control provisions of the 2024 Plan to apply.
Double-Trigger Vesting	The 2024 Plan provides that, in the event of a change of control, awards generally will vest on a “double-trigger” basis. That is, if the awards are assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving company, they generally will continue to be subject to the original vesting schedule, except that vesting generally will accelerate as provided in the 2024 Plan in the event of a qualifying termination of employment within two years after the change of control. If awards are not assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving company, they generally will become vested upon the change of control as provided in the 2024 Plan.
No Repricing of Stock Options or SARs Without Stockholder Approval	The 2024 Plan does not permit the “repricing” of stock options or stock appreciation rights without stockholder approval. This includes repricing by exchange for cash or a new or different type of award.
Clawback Policy	Awards granted under the 2024 Plan are subject to recovery (or “clawback”) pursuant to our compensation recovery policy as in effect from time to time.
No Discounted Stock Options or SARs	The 2024 Plan does not permit the use of “discounted” stock options or stock appreciation rights, which means that such awards must be granted with an exercise price or base price at least equal to the fair market value of a share on the date of grant.
Administered by an Independent Committee	The 2024 Plan is generally administered by the Compensation Committee. However, the Board will approve awards to non-employee members of the Board. The Compensation Committee and the Board may also delegate authority under the 2024 Plan as permitted by applicable law.

Summary of the 2024 Plan

The following is a summary of the 2024 Plan, as amended and restated, which is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the amended and restated 2024 Plan attached to this proxy statement as Annex B.

Eligibility and Types of Awards

The 2024 Plan authorizes the grant of equity-based and cash-based compensation awards to those officers and employees of, and consultants to, the Company and its subsidiaries who are selected by the Compensation Committee, and the 2024 Plan also authorizes the Board to grant awards to the non-employee directors of the Company. Awards under the 2024 Plan may be granted in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights (or “SARs”), restricted shares, restricted share units, and other share-based awards. As of the Record Date, approximately eight non-employee directors, 800 employees and 50 consultants are eligible to be selected to receive awards under the 2024 Plan. Individuals selected to receive awards under the 2024 Plan are referred to as “participants.”

Administration

The Compensation Committee, which is comprised of non-employee directors, generally administers awards granted under the 2024 Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Compensation Committee or the Board may delegate its authority to one or more employees or directors of the Company. Further, the Board has reserved to itself the authority to grant awards to the non-employee members of the Board, and the Board may reserve to itself any of the Compensation Committee’s other authority and may act as the administrator of the 2024 Plan.

Shares Available

If our stockholders approve the amended and restated 2024 Plan, the total number of shares that may be delivered under the 2024 Plan (subject to adjustments as described below) will be increased by 1,000,000 shares (from 4,100,000 to 5,100,000 shares), all of which may be issued pursuant to awards of incentive stock options. Shares tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price of a stock option or to cover tax withholding will not be added back to the number of shares available under the 2024 Plan. Upon exercise of any stock appreciation right that may be settled in shares, the full number of shares subject to that award will be counted against the number of shares available under the 2024 Plan, regardless of the number of shares used to settle the stock appreciation right upon exercise. To the extent that any award under the 2024 Plan or any award granted under its predecessor, the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), is forfeited, or any option or stock appreciation right terminates, expires or lapses without being exercised, the shares subject to such awards granted but not delivered will be added to the number of shares available for awards under the 2024 Plan. Shares available for awards under the 2024 Plan may consist of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares (including shares purchased by the Company in the open market), or a combination of the foregoing.

Director Compensation Limit

The 2024 Plan provides that the aggregate grant date fair value of all awards granted to a non-employee director (other than a Chair or Vice Chair of the Board) under the 2024 Plan during any single fiscal year, together with any cash compensation earned by that non-employee director during the fiscal year, may not exceed $750,000.

Stock Options

Subject to the terms and provisions of the 2024 Plan, options to purchase shares may be granted to participants at any time and from time to time as determined by the Compensation Committee. Options may be granted as incentive stock options (to employees only) or as nonqualified stock options. The Compensation Committee will determine the number of options granted to each recipient. Each option grant will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies whether the options are intended to be incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options and such additional limitations, terms, and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine, consistent with the provisions of the 2024 Plan.

The exercise price for each stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant, and each stock option shall have a term no longer than 10 years. As of the Record Date, the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock was $29.07. Stock options granted under the 2024 Plan may be exercised by such methods and procedures as determined by the Compensation Committee from time to time.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may grant SARs to participants under the 2024 Plan. A SAR entitles the holder to receive from the Company, upon exercise, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the aggregate fair market value of a specified number of shares that are the subject of such SAR over the aggregate exercise price for the underlying shares. The exercise price for each SAR may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant, and each SAR shall have a term no longer than 10 years.

We may make payment in settlement of the exercise of a SAR by delivering shares, cash, or a combination of shares and cash as set forth in the applicable award agreement. Each SAR will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the date and terms of the award and such additional limitations, terms, and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine, consistent with the provisions of the 2024 Plan.

Restricted Shares

Under the 2024 Plan, the Compensation Committee may grant or sell restricted shares to participants (i.e., shares that are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture based on continued service to the Company and/or the achievement of performance objectives, and that are subject to restrictions on transferability). Except for these restrictions and any others imposed by the Compensation Committee, upon the grant of restricted shares, the recipient generally will have rights of a stockholder with respect to the restricted shares, including the right to vote the restricted shares and to receive dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect to the restricted shares. However, any dividends payable with respect to unvested restricted shares will be accumulated or reinvested in additional restricted shares on a contingent basis, subject to forfeiture until the vesting of the underlying award. During the applicable restriction period, the participant may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange, or otherwise encumber the restricted shares. Each award of restricted shares will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the terms of the award and such additional limitations, terms and conditions, which may include restrictions based upon the achievement of performance objectives, as the Compensation Committee may determine.

Restricted Share Units

The Compensation Committee may grant or sell restricted share units to participants under the 2024 Plan. Restricted share units constitute an agreement to deliver shares (or an equivalent value in cash) to the participant at the end of a specified restriction period and/or upon the achievement of specified performance objectives, subject to such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may specify, consistent with the provisions of the 2024 Plan. Restricted share units are not shares of common stock and do not entitle the participants to any of the rights of a stockholder. Restricted share units will be settled, in cash or shares, in an amount based on the fair market value per share on the settlement date. Each restricted share unit award will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the terms of the award and such additional limitations, terms, and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine, which may include restrictions based upon the achievement of performance objectives.

Other Share-Based Awards

The Compensation Committee may grant other share-based awards to participants under the 2024 Plan. Other share-based awards are awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to shares or are otherwise based on the value of our common stock, such as unrestricted shares or time-based or performance-based units that are settled in shares and/or cash. Each other share-based award will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the terms of the award and such additional limitations, terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine, consistent with the provisions of the 2024 Plan.

Dividend Equivalents

As determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion, awards (other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) may provide the participant with a deferred and contingent right to receive dividend equivalents, either in cash or in additional shares. Any such dividend equivalents will be accumulated or deemed reinvested on a contingent basis, subject to forfeiture until such time as the underlying award becomes vested (including, where applicable, vesting based on the achievement of performance objectives). No dividend equivalents may be granted with respect to shares underlying any stock option or SAR.

Performance Objectives

The Compensation Committee may establish performance objectives in connection with any award granted under the 2024 Plan. Any such performance objectives may relate to the performance of the Company or one or more of our subsidiaries, divisions, departments, units, functions, partnerships, joint ventures or minority investments, product lines or products, or the performance of an individual participant, and performance objectives may be made relative to the performance of a group or companies or a special index of companies. Any such performance objectives will be based on the achievement of one or more criteria selected by the Compensation Committee, which may include (but shall not be limited to) the following: (i) revenue; (ii)  earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, as adjusted (EBITDA as adjusted); (iii) income before income taxes and minority interests; (iv) operating income; (v)  pre- or after-tax income; (vi) average accounts receivable; (vii) cash flow; (viii) cash flow per share; (ix) net earnings; (x) basic or diluted earnings per share; (xi) return on equity; (xii) return on assets; (xiii) return on capital; (xiv) growth in assets; (xv) economic value added; (xvi) share price performance; (xvii) total stockholder return; (xviii) improvement or attainment of expense levels; (xix) market share or market penetration; (xx) business expansion, and/or acquisitions or divestitures; or (xxi) environmental, social, or governance metrics.

Minimum Vesting Period

The 2024 Plan generally provides for awards to be granted with a minimum vesting period of at least one year for full vesting of the award (or, for non-employee directors, a period of at least 50 weeks ending on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders). However, up to 5% of the total number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2024 Plan may be issued pursuant to awards that do not meet this minimum vesting requirement. Further, awards granted under the 2024 Plan may be scheduled to vest in installments during the applicable vesting period, and the Compensation Committee may provide for accelerated vesting of awards at any time. 

Change of Control

Awards granted under the 2024 Plan generally will be subject to “double-trigger” vesting in the event of a change of control. That is, awards that are assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving company in connection with a change of control generally will continue to be subject to the original vesting schedule, with performance-based awards generally being converted to time-based awards either at “target” or based on the greater of “target” or actual performance through the fiscal quarter ending on or before the change of control, as provided in the 2024 Plan. Vesting of awards that are assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving company will accelerate in the event of a qualifying termination of employment within two years after the change of control (by the Company without “cause” or, if the employee is a party to a written agreement with the Company that defines “good reason”, by the employee for good reason). On the other hand, awards that are not assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving company in connection with a change of control will become vested in full upon the change of control (with performance-based awards generally vesting either at “target” or based on the greater of “target” or actual performance through the fiscal quarter ending on or before the change of control, as provided in the 2024 Plan). The detailed definition of cause is contained in the 2024 Plan, which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B.

The 2024 Plan generally defines a change of control to include: (i) the acquisition of more than 50% of the Company’s voting securities, (ii) the replacement of a majority of the incumbent members of the Board in a 24-month period, (iii) a merger or consolidation, unless the Company’s stockholders own more than 50% of voting securities of the resulting corporation, or (iv) sale of all or substantially of the Company’s assets in a transaction requiring stockholder approval. The 2024 Plan, attached to this proxy statement as Annex B, contains the complete, detailed definition of change of control.

Adjustments

In the event of any equity restructuring, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend, the Compensation Committee will adjust the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the 2024 Plan, the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding awards and the exercise price or other price of shares subject to outstanding awards, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, such as a merger, consolidation, or liquidation, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, make such an equitable adjustment, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. However, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, we will always round down to a whole number of shares subject to any award. Moreover, in the event of any such transaction or event, the Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding awards such alternative consideration (including cash) as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the surrender of all awards so replaced.

The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, may also provide at any time for the exercisability of outstanding stock options and SARs, the lapse of time-based vesting restrictions, and the satisfaction of performance objectives applicable to outstanding awards, or the waiver of any other limitation or requirement under any awards.

Transferability

Except as the Compensation Committee otherwise determines, awards granted under the 2024 Plan will not be transferable by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Except as otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, stock options and SARs will be exercisable during a participant’s lifetime only by him or her or, in the event of the participant’s incapacity, by his or her guardian or legal representative. Any award made under the 2024 Plan may provide that any shares issued as a result of the award will be subject to further restrictions on transfer.

No Repricing of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights

Except in connection with an adjustment or change of control (both discussed above), the Compensation Committee may not authorize the amendment of any outstanding stock option or stock appreciation right to reduce its exercise price, and no outstanding stock option or stock appreciation right may be cancelled in exchange for cash or other awards, or cancelled in exchange for stock options or stock appreciation rights having a lower exercise price, or cancelled in exchange for cash, without the approval of our stockholders.

Compensation Recovery Policy

Awards granted under the 2024 Plan shall be subject to forfeiture or recoupment pursuant to the Company’s Compensation Recovery Policy as in effect from time to time, or any successor compensation recovery (or “clawback”) policy.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Awards granted under the 2024 Plan to directors and covered executives will be subject to any applicable stock ownership guidelines as in effect from time to time, including any stock retention requirements that may apply under those guidelines.

Term of the 2024 Plan; Amendment and Termination

If the amended and restated 2024 Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders, the term of the 2024 Plan will be extended by approximately one year, from March 25, 2035 until March 24, 2036, or until such earlier date as the Board may decide to terminate the 2024 Plan. The Board may, without stockholder approval, amend or terminate the 2024 Plan, except in any respect as to which stockholder approval is required by the 2024 Plan, by law, regulation, or the rules of an applicable stock exchange.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of awards made under the 2024 Plan, based upon the laws in effect on the date hereof. The discussion is general in nature and does not take into account a number of considerations that may apply in light of the circumstances of a particular participant under the 2024 Plan. The income tax consequences under applicable foreign, state and local tax laws may not be the same as under U.S. federal income tax laws.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a non-qualified stock option. A participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding for employees) upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares purchased over their exercise price.

Incentive Stock Options

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of an incentive stock option. A participant will not recognize taxable income (except for purposes of the alternative minimum tax) upon exercise of an incentive stock option. If the shares acquired by exercise of an incentive stock option are held for the longer of two years from the date the option was granted and more than one year from the date the shares were transferred, any gain or loss arising from a subsequent disposition of such shares will be taxed as long-term capital gain or loss. If, however, such shares are disposed of within either of such two- or one-year periods, then in the year of such disposition the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income equal to the excess of the lesser of the amount realized upon such disposition and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a SAR. Upon exercise, a participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding for employees) equal to the fair market value of any shares delivered and the amount of cash paid upon exercise of the SAR.

Restricted Shares

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of restricted shares, unless the participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed at such time. If such election is made, the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding for employees) at the time of the grant equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at such time over the amount, if any, paid for the restricted shares. If such election is not made, the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding for employees) at the time the restrictions lapse in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at such time over the amount, if any, paid for the restricted shares.

Restricted Share Units

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a restricted share unit award. A participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding for employees) at the time of settlement of the award equal to the fair market value of any shares delivered and the amount of cash paid upon settlement of the award.

Other Share-Based Awards

Generally, participants will recognize taxable income at the time of settlement of other share-based awards, with the amount of income recognized generally being equal to the amount of cash and the fair market value of any shares delivered under the award.

Tax Deductibility of Compensation Provided Under the 2024 Plan

When a participant recognizes ordinary compensation income as a result of an award granted under the 2024 Plan, the Company may be permitted to claim a federal income tax deduction for such compensation, subject to various limitations that may apply under applicable law. As a result of those limitations, there can be no assurance that any compensation awarded or paid under the 2024 Plan will be deductible, in whole or in part. For example, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows the deduction of compensation in excess of $1 million per year payable to certain “covered employees.” As a result, all or a portion of the compensation paid to one of our covered employees pursuant to the 2024 Plan may be non-deductible pursuant to Section 162(m).

Further, to the extent that compensation provided under the 2024 Plan may be deemed to be contingent upon a change of control, a portion of such compensation may be non-deductible by the Company under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and may be subject to a 20% excise tax imposed on the recipient of the compensation.

Section 409A

Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code imposes additional tax upon the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation unless certain requirements are met. We intend that awards granted under the 2024 Plan will be designed and administered in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A. However, the Company does not warrant the tax treatment of any award under Section 409A or otherwise.

This general discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences is intended for the information of stockholders considering how to vote with respect to this proposal and not as tax guidance to participants in the 2024 Plan. Different tax rules may apply to specific participants and transactions under the 2024 Plan.

Registration with the SEC

The Company intends to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the additional shares reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as soon as practicable after approval of the 2024 Plan by the Company’s stockholders.

Plan Benefits

It is not possible to determine specific amounts and types of awards that may be awarded in the future under the 2024 Plan because the grant of awards under the 2024 Plan is discretionary.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ASTRANA HEALTH, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2024 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN.

Executive Summary

We are a leading physician-centric, technology-powered, risk-bearing healthcare company. Leveraging our proprietary end-to-end technology solutions, we operate an integrated healthcare delivery platform that enables providers to successfully participate in value-based care arrangements, thus empowering them to deliver accessible, high-quality care to patients in a cost-effective manner. We, together with our affiliated physician groups and consolidated entities, provide coordinated outcome-based care, serving patients covered by private or public insurance provided through Medicare, Medicaid, and health maintenance organizations (HMOs), with a small portion of our revenue coming from non-insured patients. We provide care coordination services to each major constituent of the healthcare delivery system, including patients, families, primary care physicians, specialists, acute care hospitals, alternative sites of inpatient care, physician groups, and health plans. Our physician network consists of primary care physicians, specialist physicians, physician and specialist extenders, and hospitalists. Led by a leadership team with several decades of experience, we have built a company and culture focused on physicians providing high-quality medical care, population health management, and patient care coordination. Through our integrated health network of more than 20,000 contracted physicians, we were responsible for coordinating value-based care for approximately 1.6 million patients as of December 31, 2025. As a result, we believe we are well-positioned to capitalize on the shift in the U.S. healthcare industry toward value-based and results-oriented healthcare, with a focus on patient satisfaction, high-quality care, and cost efficiency.

2025 Business Overview

During the year ended December 31, 2025, our disciplined approach to risk, strong physician alignment, and technology-enabled clinical infrastructure drove consistent performance while creating measurable value for patients through improved outcomes, greater access, and lower total cost of care. In July 2025, we completed the acquisition of certain businesses and assets of Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc., significantly expanding our business. Our success is built on the consistent execution against our strategic roadmap, which consists of sustainably growing membership to bring better care to more Americans, increasing alignment with patient outcomes through responsible risk progression in value-based arrangements, achieving superior patient outcomes and care quality while managing costs, and driving operational excellence across our business through our proprietary Care Enablement suite. Key 2025 financial and operational highlights included:

Financial:

●

Total revenue of $3,181.8 million, up 56% from $2,034.5 million in 2024

●

Care Partners revenue of $3,022.6 million, up 55% from $1,949.0 million in 2024

●

Net income attributable to Astrana of $22.5 million

●

Earnings per share – diluted (“EPS - diluted”) of $0.46

●

Adjusted EBITDA* of $205.4 million, up 21% from $170.4 million in 2024

* Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that we calculate as earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring and non-cash transactions, and stock-based compensation. See Annex A of this proxy statement for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income.

Operational:

●

On July 1, 2025, we completed the acquisition of certain businesses and assets of Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc., including its California licensed health care service plan (Prospect Health Plan), medical groups in California, Texas, Arizona and Rhode Island (Prospect Medical Groups), management service organization (Prospect Medical Systems), pharmacy (RightRx), and Foothill Regional Medical Center.

●

We partnered with a provider group in Southern California and with Intermountain Health across southern Nevada with the collaboration goal to expand access to coordinated, high-quality care, enhance primary care access, improve patient outcomes, and advance the healthcare infrastructure through shared technology and care management programs.

2025 Say on Pay and Stockholder Engagement

We regularly meet with our stockholders to discuss business topics, seek feedback on our performance, and address other matters, such as executive compensation. We also receive feedback from our stockholders on our executive compensation program in the form of the results of the annual say-on-pay advisory vote.

At the 2025 annual meeting, our stockholders strongly supported the compensation program for our named executive officers, with approximately 91% of votes cast in favor of the say-on-pay proposal. The Compensation Committee and the Board view the results of the 2025 say-on-pay vote as compelling evidence that our executive compensation program is aligned with stockholder interests and expectations. The Compensation Committee and the Board plan to continue to consider the outcome of future say-on-pay votes and other feedback we may receive from our stockholders when making decisions about executive compensation.

Best Compensation Practices & Policies

We believe the following practices and policies promote sound compensation governance and are in the best interests of our stockholders and executives:

What We Do		What We Don’t Do
✓	Place significant emphasis on performance-based and variable compensation	🗶	No hedging or pledging (without prior written approval of the Compliance Officer under the Insider Trading Policy)

What Guides Our Program

Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy

The Compensation Committee oversees the design and administration of the compensation program for our executive officers. The Compensation Committee’s primary objectives in structuring and administering our executive officer compensation program are to:

●

Attract, motivate, and retain talented and dedicated executive officers; and

●

Reinforce business strategies and objectives for enhanced stockholder value.

To achieve these goals, the Compensation Committee evaluates individual executive performance with a goal of setting compensation at levels the Compensation Committee believes are comparable with those of executive officers at other public companies having a similar size and line of business, while taking into account our relative performance and our own strategic goals.

Principal Elements of Compensation

Our compensation philosophy is supported by the following principal elements of compensation:

Compensation Element	How It’s Paid	Purpose
Base Salary	Cash (Fixed)	Provide a competitive base salary rate relative to similar positions in the market and enable the Company to attract and retain critical executive talent.
Annual Incentives	Cash (Variable)	Reward executive officers for delivering on annual financial and operational objectives that contribute to the creation of stockholder value.
Long-Term Incentives	Equity (Variable)	Provide incentives for executive officers to execute on longer-term financial goals that drive the creation of stockholder value and support the Company’s retention strategy.

We view these components of compensation as related, but distinct. Although the Compensation Committee reviews total compensation, we do not believe that significant compensation derived from one component of overall compensation should negate or offset compensation from other components. We determine the appropriate level for each compensation component based in part on compensation paid to executive officers at comparable companies consistent with our recruiting and retention goals, our view of internal equity and consistency, the results of our most recent stockholder advisory vote, and other considerations we deem relevant, such as rewarding extraordinary performance.

The Decision-Making Process

The Role of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee oversees the executive compensation program for our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee is comprised of independent, non-employee members of the Board. The Compensation Committee works with its independent consultant and management to examine the effectiveness of the Company’s executive compensation program throughout the year. Details of the Compensation Committee’s authority and responsibilities are specified in its charter, which is available at https://ir.astranahealth.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents.

The Compensation Committee typically performs an annual strategic review of our executive officers’ compensation to determine whether such compensation provides adequate incentives and motivation to our executive officers and whether it adequately compensates our executive officers relative to comparable officers in other similarly situated companies. The Compensation Committee makes all final compensation and equity award decisions regarding our named executive officers.

The Role of Management. For compensation decisions relating to executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, the Compensation Committee considers recommendations from our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, as well as such factors as competitive industry salaries. When determining compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, the Compensation Committee considers such factors as competitive industry salaries, an assessment of the Chief Executive Officer’s and the Executive Chairman’s contributions made during the preceding year, and each of their respective industry expertise. The Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman do not participate in the deliberations of the Compensation Committee regarding their own compensation.

The Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant. For 2025, the Compensation Committee retained Pearl Meyer as its independent compensation consultant to provide analysis and recommendations that inform the Compensation Committee’s decisions with respect to executive officer compensation, including, among other things, analysis and input on compensation program structure and performance measures and goals. Pearl Meyer did not perform any other services for the Company in 2025. The Compensation Committee has reviewed the independence of Pearl Meyer under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules and believes that Pearl Meyer does not have any conflicts of interest in advising the committee.

The Role of the Peer Group. The Compensation Committee believes that it is important when making its compensation-related decisions to be informed as to the current practices of similarly situated companies. Historically, for purposes of setting compensation levels, the Compensation Committee reviewed broad-based third-party surveys and other information collected from public and private sources regarding the compensation for executive officers of comparably sized companies. However, ensuring that our compensation peer group is aligned with our business objectives and stockholder expectations is a priority—especially as we continue to evolve at a rapid pace. In February 2024, our independent compensation consultant conducted a comprehensive analysis to develop a formal compensation peer group that is aligned with our valuation and growth trajectory. In March 2025, the Compensation Committee, in consultation with Pearl Meyer, developed a new peer group for 2025 that consisted of relevant health care providers and services sector companies and health care technology industry companies that are similar to us in terms of revenue and market capitalization. The peer group was constructed to more closely align with our business practices and growth forecasts and was used to prepare a competitive market analysis of our executive compensation program. An analysis by Pearl Meyer of the compensation practices at the peer group was made available to the Compensation Committee to inform its decisions regarding 2025 compensation of our executive officers.

In evaluating and updating the companies comprising the compensation peer group for 2025, the Compensation Committee, in collaboration with Pearl Meyer, considered the following primary criteria:

●

Companies with a similar industry focus, including relevant health care providers and services sector companies and health care technology industry companies, as well other companies in other industry sectors that could broadly be categorized as health care (excluding companies with a primary focus on health care facilities);

●

Companies with similar revenues – within a range of approximately 0.5x to approximately 3.5x of our estimated revenues following the acquisition of Prospect Health; and

●

Companies with similar market capitalizations – within a range of approximately 0.3x to approximately 3.0x our estimated market capitalization following the acquisition of Prospect Health.

After a review of the peer group companies, the Compensation Committee elected to make the following changes to our compensation peer group for 2025, primarily due to changing revenue ranges:

●

Added: Oscar Health, Inc., BrightSpring Health Services, Inc., Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, Option Care Health, Inc., Amedisys, Inc., Hims & Hers Health, Inc., Clover Health Investments, Corp., LifeStance Health Group, Inc. and GoodRx Holdings, Inc.

●

Removed: Veradigm Inc., Premier, Inc., HealthEquity, Inc., NeueHealth, Inc., and Health Catalyst, Inc.

The companies comprising the 2025 compensation peer group were as follows:

agilon health, inc.	Evolent Health, Inc.	Privia Health Group, Inc.
Alignment Healthcare, Inc.	GoodRx Holdings, Inc.	Quest Diagnostics Incorporated,
Amedisys, Inc.⁽¹⁾	Hims & Hers Health, Inc.	RadNet, Inc.
BrightSpring Health Services, Inc.	LifeStance Health Group, Inc.	Teladoc Health, Inc.
Chemed Corporation	Option Care Health, Inc.
Clover Health Investments, Corp.	Oscar Health, Inc.

(1)

Amedisys, Inc. was subsequently removed from the peer group because it was acquired in August 2025.

The Compensation Committee believes that peer group comparisons are useful guides to measure the competitiveness of our executive compensation program and related policies and practices. The Compensation Committee reviews our compensation peer group annually and makes adjustments to its composition if warranted, taking into account changes in both our business and the businesses of the companies in the peer group.

It is important to note that this market data regarding peer group compensation is not the sole determinant in setting pay levels for the named executive officers. The Compensation Committee also considers Company and individual performance and the nature of an individual’s role within the Company, as well as his or her experience and contributions to his or her current role when making its compensation-related decisions.

The graphs below compare the stock performance of the Company and the members of our peer group for five years, three years, and one year, respectively. The annual changes shown in the graphs are based on the assumption that $100 was invested in each company’s common stock in the base year, and that all dividends were reinvested. The stock price performance included in the line graph below is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

2025 Executive Compensation Program

Base Salaries

We provide our named executive officers with base salaries that we believe enable us to hire and retain individuals in a competitive environment and to reward individual performance and contribution to our overall business goals, while taking into account the unique circumstances of the Company. We review base salaries for our named executive officers annually, and increases, if any, are based on our performance and individual performance, as well as relevant market data. After considering market compensation information and the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee approved an increase in Mr. Basho’s annual base salary to $700,000 for 2025. The adjustment for Mr. Basho reflects his operational leadership accountabilities and time commitment associated with overseeing both the Company’s financial and day-to-day operating functions. The base salaries of our other named executive officers remained unchanged from 2024. Annual base salaries as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:

Name	2024 Base Salary	2025 Base Salary	% Increase
Kenneth Sim, M.D.	$950,000	$950,000	—
Brandon K. Sim, M.S.	$850,000	$850,000	—
Chandan Basho, M.B.A.	$600,000	$700,000	16.67%
Dinesh Kumar, M.D.	$700,000	$700,000	—

Annual Cash Bonus Awards

For 2025, certain of our named executive officers (Mr. Sim, Mr. Basho, and Dr. Kumar) had an opportunity to earn an annual cash-based bonus award based on the Company’s performance with respect to specified performance metrics, subject to potential adjustment as described below. After considering market compensation information and the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee approved an increase in Mr. Basho’s target annual bonus opportunity for 2025 to 85% of his base salary (from 80% in 2024). This adjustment, together with the adjustment to his 2025 annual base salary described above, positioned Mr. Basho’s 2025 target total cash compensation at approximately the median of the competitive market. The target annual bonus opportunities of Mr. Sim and Dr. Kumar, as a percentage of base salary, were unchanged from 2024.

For 2025, annual cash bonus opportunities for Mr. Sim, Mr. Basho and Dr. Kumar were based on the level of achievement of predetermined performance goals based on the Company’s revenue (50% weighting), Adjusted EBITDA (25% weighting) and annual wellness visit percentage (25% weighting). In addition, the 2025 annual cash bonus program authorized the Compensation Committee to adjust payouts up or down by up to 15% after considering individual performance. Each participant in the executive annual cash bonus program was eligible to receive a bonus ranging from 50% of the executive’s target annual bonus opportunity, for achievement of the threshold level of performance, to 200% of the executive’s target annual bonus opportunity, for achievement at or above the maximum level of performance. No bonus would be earned for performance achievement below the threshold level of performance, and each of the three weighted performance goals was measured separately. Annual cash bonuses are intended to reward both incremental improvement and continued strong performance.

The table below shows the threshold, target and maximum Company performance goals, the actual level of performance achieved for each of the Company performance goals, and the corresponding weighted payout percentage for 2025:

Performance Metric	Weighting	Threshold	Target	Maximum	Actual Performance	Weighted Payout %
Revenue	50%	$2,400.0M	$2,600.0M	$2,800.0M	$3,200.0M	200%
Adjusted EBITDA	25%	$170.0M	$180.0M	$190.0M	$205.0M	200%
Annual Wellness Visit Percentage⁽¹⁾	25%	70%	74%	78%	77%	175%
*Preliminary Payout Percentage (Prior to any Discretionary Adjustment) (% of Target):*						193.8%

(1)

We calculate Annual Wellness Visit Percentage as the number of Astrana Care Partner Medicare members during the measurement year for which we received a claim for a comprehensive, preventative annual wellness visit out of the entire eligible Medicare population as of December 1st of the measurement year.

After reviewing the level of achievement of the Company performance goals and the preliminary payout percentage of 193.8% of target, as set out above, the Compensation Committee considered individual performance and approved final 2025 bonus payouts as follows: Mr. Sim – 100%, Mr. Basho – 85%, and Dr. Kumar – 100% (expressed as a percentage of the 193.8% preliminary payout percentage based on achievement of Company performance goals). The following table sets out the target annual cash bonus opportunity (as a percentage of base salary) and the annual cash bonus actually received by each participating named executive officer for fiscal 2025.

Name	Target Annual Bonus Opportunity (% of Base Salary)	2025 Annual Cash Bonus
Brandon K. Sim, M.S.	125%	$	2,059,125
Chandan Basho, M.B.A.	85%	$	979,891
Dinesh Kumar, M.D.	100%	$	1,356,250

As provided in his employment agreement with AHM, Dr. Sim is eligible to receive a discretionary annual cash bonus. For the 2025 fiscal year, the Board approved the payment of a discretionary cash bonus of $100,000 to Dr. Sim.

Equity Compensation Awards

Our Compensation Committee believes that in order to appropriately incentivize the named executive officers to create stockholder value, a significant portion of their compensation should be in the form of equity-based compensation. Our equity-based compensation program is designed to promote stock ownership by our executives and senior management, tie compensation realized to stock price performance, and encourage retention.

We do not schedule the grant of stock options or other equity awards in anticipation of the disclosure of material nonpublic information, and we do not schedule the disclosure of material nonpublic information based on the timing of grants of stock options or other equity awards. We have not adopted any formal policy that would require the Compensation Committee or the Board to grant, or to avoid granting, stock options or other equity awards to our named executive officers or other employees at certain times. The Compensation Committee and the Board have, in the past, granted stock options to executives and senior management as part of the executive compensation program and may do so again in the future. No stock options were granted during 2025.
