"I believe that Evolent offers a differentiated product for payers seeking to deliver top-quality clinical outcomes and health care value to members living with complex health conditions. I'm excited for the opportunity to help drive shareholder value."

If elected, Mr. Guertin will be the sixth new independent director added to the Board in the past four years, reflecting the Board's emphasis on ensuring its corporate governance aligns with best-in-class practices.

"Shawn brings an impressive track record of driving growth and profitability in the health care industry, and we are excited about the opportunity to have him join the Board," said Evolent Board Chair Cheryl Scott.

Evolent Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Seth Blackley stated, "Shawn is a highly respected leader from some of America's best-known health care brands. We look forward to benefiting from his guidance and his passion for our mission."

Mr. Guertin would take the seat currently held by Diane Holder, who is not seeking re-election.

"I am incredibly grateful to Diane for her contributions to Evolent and the Board over the last 14 years. Diane has helped establish the company as a leader in value-based specialty care, and her legacy will always be linked to Evolent," said Mr. Blackley.
