Does the company currently pay a cash dividend?
Tenet has not paid a cash dividend since 1993. Instead, the company reinvests its profits in its hospitals and services. We believe this is the best means to serve our shareholders over the long term.

I have old NME stock certificates. Do I need to exchange them for Tenet shares?
NME changed its name to Tenet in 1995, after completing the acquisition of AMI. Your NME certificates are still valid; you are not required to exchange them for Tenet stock certificates. However, we do recommend keeping records up to date. If you choose to exchange your NME certificates for Tenet certificates, you may do so through the Bank of New York.

I have old AMI stock certificates. Do I need to exchange them for Tenet shares?
Yes. On March 1, 1995 NME acquired American Medical Holdings ("AMI") and renamed the combined company Tenet Healthcare Corporation. As a result of the acquisition, each share of AMI stock was converted into the right to receive 0.42 of a share of Tenet stock and $19.00 in cash. There is no longer a market for AMI shares.
The cash and Tenet stock to which you are entitled is being held for you; we urge you to claim it. If you do not claim it, eventually it will be turned over to the appropriate state authorities under the abandoned property laws.
