Gain Share Contracts 7 • Gain share contracts offer payors an alternative to full capitation, with incentives for TOI to drive reductions in cost of care and improvements in quality of care • Typically structured with an upside-only share of savings generated on patients seen by TOI relative to a benchmark • Creative solution for risk-bearing primary care groups that aren’t delegated for contracting • Can include quality incentives for TOI to further improve patient care and lower overall cost • Acts as a stepping stone to a broader capitation relationship as TOI demonstrates the value of its model of care TOI Earns % of Savings x Eligible Members TOI Can Earn Additional Incentives by Achieving Quality Measures Gain Share Contracts Offer TOI an Entry Point with Payors in New Markets Illustrative Gain Share Contract Structure Benchmark Spend Savings Relative to Benchmark Spend on TOI Eligible Members Quality Incentive

Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation Footnotes 21 (1) During the year ended December 31, 2021, non-cash addbacks were primarily comprised of a $4,957 gain on debt extinguishment and bad debt recoveries, net of $417 partially offset by deferred rent of $109 other miscellaneous charges of $149. During the year ended December 31, 2020, non-cash addbacks were primarily comprised of a $7,500 impairment of notes receivable (as described further below), $4,233 of bad debts write-offs, and $239 of other miscellaneous charges. (2) Practice acquisition-related costs were comprised of consulting and legal fees incurred to perform due diligence, execute, and integrate acquisitions of various oncology practices. (3) Consulting and legal fees were comprised of a subset of the Company’s total consulting and legal fees during the years and quarters ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and related to certain advisory projects, software implementations, and legal fees for debt financing and predecessor litigation matters. (4) Other, net is comprised of severance expenses resulting from cost rationalization programs of $127 and $278, as well as temporary labor of $1,182 and $1,862 recruiting expenses to build out corporate infrastructure of $1,275 and 1,289 and other miscellaneous charges of $130 and $0 during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 such expenses were partially offset by $1,023 and $978, respectively, of stimulus funds received under the CARES Act. (5) Adjusted EBITDA was impacted by $1,800,000 revenue reduction during the fourth quarter of 2021 related to a payor not paying according to their contract. Note: Costs related to directors and officers insurance, de novo clinics and new providers have not been added back to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA.


 
Strong Unit Economics Drives Increasing Profitability 22 Embedded Gross Margin Expansion Potential as TOI Scales Margin Expansion Drivers TOI Pod(2) Gross Margin vs. % Value-Based Visits Value-Based Volume Mix: As our mix of value-based revenue increases our margins will improve; pods today with highest mix of value-based contract achieve 30%+ margins Provider Utilization: Margins expected to improve as 1) Provider productivity increases in maturing clinics 2) The ratio of APPs(1) to MDs increases Market Dynamics: Certain expansion markets have higher-cost fee-for-service oncology, therefore TOI can deliver better value and savings to our customers and capture higher margins 1 2 33 Note: (1) Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) include Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners; (2) Each pod is an operational unit consisting of 2-5 clinics, grouped together based on geographic proximity and visit volume.

Forward Looking Statements 23 This presentation includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “preliminary,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “potential,” “guidance,” “approximately,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projections, estimates and forecasts of revenue and other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity and expectations. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of The Oncology Institute, Inc. (“TOI”) and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of TOI. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the outcome of judicial and administrative proceedings to which TOI may become a party or governmental investigations to which TOI may become subject that could interrupt or limit TOI’s operations, result in adverse judgments, settlements or fines and create negative publicity; changes in TOI’s clients’ preferences, prospects and the competitive conditions prevailing in the healthcare sector; the risk that any required regulatory approvals could adversely affect TOI; failure to continue to meet stock exchange listing standards; the impact of COVID-19 on the TOI’s business; those factors discussed in the documents of TOI filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that TOI does not presently know or that TOI currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect TOI’s, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. TOI anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause TOI’s assessments to change. TOI does not undertake any obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing TOI’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Financial Information; Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Some of the financial information and data contained in this presentation, such as Adjusted EBITDA, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). TOI believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool to assess operational performance and trends in, and in comparing our financial measures with, other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. TOI’s non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. Because of the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures, you should consider the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this presentation in conjunction with TOI’s financial statements and the related notes thereto.
