CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The statements contained in this prospectus supplement or in our other documents that are incorporated by reference herein that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, the economy, future plans and strategies, and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “envision,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,” “contemplate” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. For example, all statements we make relating to: our ability to grow our business, expand access to our patients and our payors and invest in our platform; our plan to partner with additional hospital systems, large primary care groups and other specialist groups; our expectation that we will continue to open de novo centers and acquire new centers; our growth rates and financial results; our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives and strategies; and our expected market opportunity are forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include:

S-v

For the reasons described above, we caution you against placing undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which should also be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are incorporated by reference herein. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this prospectus supplement speaks only as of the date on which we make it. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves risks. You should carefully review the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and any similar caption in the documents that we subsequently file with the SEC that are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and in any free writing prospectus that we provide you in connection with this offering. The risks and uncertainties discussed in the documents referred to above, as well as other matters discussed in this prospectus supplement and in those documents, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects and the market price of the common stock. Moreover, the risks and uncertainties discussed in the foregoing documents are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face, and our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects and the market price of the common stock could be materially adversely affected by other matters that are not known to us or that we currently do not consider to be material risks to our business.

Risks Related to this Offering

Future sales of our common stock in the public market or the issuance of securities senior to our common stock could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings.

Sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public markets following this offering, or the perception that these sales might occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or could impair our ability to raise capital through a future sale of, or pay for acquisitions using, our equity securities. In addition, the selling stockholders and certain other stockholders have certain registration rights that require us to register the sale of common stock held by them, including in connection with underwritten offerings.

We may issue common stock or equity securities senior to our common stock in the future for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy, to adjust our ratio of debt-to-equity, as consideration in acquisitions or for other reasons. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales or issuances of shares of our common stock or other equity securities, or the availability of shares of our common stock or any other equity securities for future sale or issuance, will have on the trading price of our common stock.

The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, which could negatively affect us and holders of our common stock.

The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. For instance, if our financial results are below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the market price of our common stock could decrease, perhaps significantly. Other factors that may affect the market price of our common stock include announcements relating to significant corporate transactions; fluctuations in our quarterly and annual financial results; operating and stock price performance of companies that investors deem comparable to us; future sales by us or our subsidiaries of equity, equity-related or debt securities; the amount, if any, of dividends that we pay on our common stock; anticipated or pending investigations, proceedings or litigation that involve or affect us; changes in regional, national or global financial markets and economies and general market conditions, such as interest or foreign exchange rates, stock, commodity, credit or asset valuations or volatility; and changes in government regulation or proposals relating to us. In addition, the U.S. and global securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated to the operating performance of companies in these markets. Market fluctuations and broad market, economic and industry factors may negatively affect the price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. You may not be able to sell your shares of our common stock at or above the public offering price, or at all. Any volatility of or a significant decrease in the market price of our common stock could also negatively affect our ability to make acquisitions using our common stock.

S-3

USE OF PROCEEDS

All shares of our common stock sold in this offering will be sold by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. We have agreed to pay certain expenses related to this offering, other than underwriting discounts and commissions that will be borne by the selling stockholders.

S-4

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The following tables show information as of May 1, 2024 regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by the selling stockholders. The percentages of shares outstanding provided in the table are based on a total of 382,287,766 shares of common stock outstanding on May 1, 2024.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, which generally includes any shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting and/or investment power. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security within 60 days. Except as otherwise indicated by the footnotes, the entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock held by the respective entity.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock as of the date hereof. Except where noted, this summary deals only with common stock that is held as a capital asset by a non-U.S. holder (as defined below).

A “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock (other than an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, any of the following:

This summary is based upon provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. Those authorities may be changed, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences different from those summarized below. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income and estate taxes and does not deal with non-U.S., state, local or other tax considerations that may be relevant to non-U.S. holders in light of their particular circumstances. In addition, it does not represent a detailed description of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws (including if you are a U.S. expatriate, foreign pension fund, “controlled foreign corporation,” “passive foreign investment company” or a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes). We cannot assure you that a change in law will not alter significantly the tax considerations that we describe in this summary.

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds shares of our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common stock, you should consult your tax advisors.

You should consult your own tax advisors concerning the particular U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences to you of the ownership and disposition of our common stock, as well as the consequences to you arising under other U.S. federal tax laws and the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

Dividends

In the event that we make a distribution of cash or other property (other than certain pro rata distributions of our common stock) in respect of shares of our common stock, the distribution generally will be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent it is paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Any portion of a distribution that exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted tax basis of a non-U.S. holder’s common stock, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in shares of our common stock, the excess will be treated as gain from the disposition of shares of our common stock (the tax treatment of which is discussed below under “—Gain on Disposition of Common Stock”).

S-7

Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, subject to the discussion of FATCA (as defined herein) below under “—Additional Withholding Requirements.” However, dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base) are not subject to the withholding tax, provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied. Instead, such dividends are subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a U.S. person as defined under the Code. Any such effectively connected dividends received by a foreign corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

A non-U.S. holder who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate and avoid backup withholding, as discussed below, for dividends will be required (a) to provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying under penalty of perjury that such holder is not a U.S. person as defined under the Code and is eligible for treaty benefits or (b) if our common stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries, to satisfy the relevant certification requirements of applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. Special certification and other requirements apply to certain non-U.S. holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals.

A non-U.S. holder eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Gain on Disposition of Common Stock

Subject to the discussion of backup withholding and FATCA (as defined herein), any gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of our common stock generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

In a situation in the first bullet point or the third bullet point immediately above, a non-U.S. holder will be subject to tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a U.S. person as defined under the Code. In addition, if any non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above is a foreign corporation, the gain realized by such non-U.S. holder may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. An individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition, which gain may be offset by U.S. source capital losses realized in the same year even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States.

S-8

Generally, a corporation is a “U.S. real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). We believe we are not and do not anticipate becoming a “U.S. real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Distributions paid to a non-U.S. holder and the amount of any tax withheld with respect to such distributions generally will be reported to the IRS. Copies of the information returns reporting such distributions and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

A non-U.S. holder will not be subject to backup withholding on dividends received if such holder certifies under penalty of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such holder is a U.S. person as defined under the Code), or such holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

Information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding will apply to the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of our common stock made within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries, unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalty of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a U.S. person as defined under the Code), or such owner otherwise establishes an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Requirements

Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as “FATCA”), a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax may apply to any dividends paid on our common stock to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA or (y) its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA (which may alternatively be in the form of compliance with an intergovernmental agreement with the United States) in a manner which avoids withholding, or (ii) a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA or (y) adequate information regarding certain substantial U.S. beneficial owners of such entity (if any). Under proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department on December 13, 2018, which state that taxpayers may rely on the proposed Treasury regulations until final Treasury regulations are issued, this withholding tax will not apply to the gross proceeds from the sale or disposition of our common stock. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above under “—Dividends,” the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to your ownership and disposition of our common stock.

S-9

UNDERWRITERS (CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC are acting as representatives of the underwriters (the “Representatives”) in this offering. We and the selling stockholders have entered into an underwriting agreement with the underwriters. Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, the selling stockholders have agreed to sell to the underwriters, and each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, the number of shares of common stock listed next to its name in the following table:

The underwriters are committed to purchase all the shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholders if they purchase any shares. The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults, the purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may also be increased or the offering may be terminated.

The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. After the initial offering of the shares to the public, if all of the shares of common stock are not sold at the public offering price, the underwriters may change the offering price and the other selling terms. Sales of any shares made outside of the United States may be made by affiliates of the underwriters. The offering of the shares by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.

The underwriters have an option to buy up to 3,000,000 additional shares of common stock from the selling stockholders, to cover sales of shares by the underwriters which exceed the number of shares specified in the table above. The underwriters have 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement to exercise this option to purchase additional shares from the selling stockholders. If any additional shares of common stock are purchased, the underwriters will offer the additional shares on the same terms as those on which the shares are being offered.

We estimate that the total expenses of this offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding the underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $900,000. We have agreed to reimburse the underwriters for expenses relating to the clearance of this offering with the FINRA up to $15,000.

S-10

A prospectus supplement in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the underwriters. The underwriters may agree to allocate a number of shares to underwriters and selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the underwriters to underwriters and selling group members that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.

We, all of our directors and officers, the selling stockholders, and certain holders identified in the registration rights agreement that we entered into with such stockholders in connection with our initial public offering have agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives on behalf of the underwriters, we and they will not, and will not publicly disclose an intention to, during the period ending 90 days after the date of this prospectus supplement (the “Restricted Period”):

whether any such transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. In addition, we and each such person agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives on behalf of the underwriters, we or such other person will not, during the Restricted Period, make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Restricted Securities; provided that, to the extent such person has existing demand and/or piggyback registration rights described in the registration statement on Form S-3 or the prospectus related to this offering (including in filings with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein), the foregoing shall not prohibit such person from notifying us privately that it is or will be exercising its demand and/or piggyback registration rights following the expiration of the Restricted Period and undertaking any preparations related thereto so long as no public announcement of such demand or exercise of rights and no publicly available registration statement, prospectus supplement or other document or filing shall be made by us or the lock-up party during the Restricted Period.

The restrictions described in the immediately preceding paragraph (the “Lock-Up Restrictions”) do not apply to:

S-11

S-12

provided that in the case of any gift, transfer, distribution or pledge pursuant to clause (b), (c), (d), (e) or (k), each donee, transferee, distributee or pledgee, as applicable, shall sign and deliver a lock-up agreement substantially in the form thereof attached to the underwriting agreement and provided, further, that in the case of any gift, transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c)(i)-(ii), (d) or (k), no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Restricted Securities, shall be voluntarily made and if such a filing is required, such filing must disclose that such transfer was made pursuant to a valid exemption from the lock-up agreement.

The Lock-Up Restrictions also do not apply to us with respect to certain transactions, including (A) the issuance by us of common stock upon the exercise of an option or warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding on the date of this prospectus supplement, (B) facilitating the establishment of a trading plan on behalf of a shareholder, officer or director of our Company pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of common stock, provided that (i) such plan does not provide for the transfer of common stock during the Restricted Period and (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by us regarding the establishment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of common stock may be made under such plan during the Restricted Period, (C) the grant by us of awards under equity incentive plans (including employee stock purchase plans) or other similar arrangements (D) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8 (or the equivalent form) with the SEC in connection with an employee stock compensation plan or agreement of our Company and (E) the issuance of shares of common stock or other securities (including securities convertible into shares of common stock) in connection with the acquisition by us or any of our subsidiaries of the securities, businesses, joint ventures, products or technologies, properties or other assets of another person or entity or pursuant to any equity incentive plan or arrangement, or any employee benefit plan, assumed by us in connection with any such transaction (or any equity incentive plan or arrangement, or any employee benefit plan, to the extent used to issue awards, substitute awards or securities related to any such transaction); provided that the aggregate amount of Restricted Securities (on an as converted, as exercised or as exchanged basis) that we may sell or issue or agree to sell or issue pursuant to clause (D) shall not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of the transactions contemplated by the underwriting agreement determined on a fully diluted basis.

The Representatives, in their sole discretion, may release the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time.

If, prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the representatives consent at their discretion, on behalf of the underwriters, to release any Restricted Securities held by any Sponsor Investor (as such term is defined in that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 9, 2021, by and among us and each of the other persons from time to time party thereto) from the restrictions of any lock-up arrangement substantially identical to that set forth in the lock-up agreements described above and entered into in connection with this offering (any such release being a “Triggering Release” and such party receiving such release being a “Triggering Release

S-13

Party”), then a number of the locked-up party’s Restricted Securities subject to a lock-up agreement shall also be released from the Lock-Up Restrictions on a pro rata basis, such number of Restricted Securities being the total number of Restricted Securities held by the locked-up party on the date of the Triggering Release that are subject to a lock-up agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Restricted Securities released pursuant to the Triggering Release and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Restricted Securities held by the Triggering Release Party on such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Triggering Release shall not be applied (a) if the aggregate number of shares of common stock affected by such discretionary release, waiver, or termination, in whole or in part, is less than or equal to 1.0% of our fully-diluted capitalization as measured immediately prior to the consummation of this offering; or (b) in the event of any primary or secondary public offering or sale of our Company’s securities that is underwritten (the “Underwritten Sale”) during the Restricted Period, in a transaction that complies with the terms of the underwriting agreement; provided that if the locked-up party has a contractual right to demand or require the registration of locked-up party’s Restricted Securities or otherwise “piggyback” on a registration statement filed by us for the offer and sale of our securities, the locked-up party is offered the opportunity to participate on a pro rata basis in the Underwritten Sale consistent with such contractual rights and the locked-up party is released from its lockup restrictions set forth herein to the extent of the locked-up party’s participation in such Underwritten Sale or such contractual rights are waived pursuant to the terms thereof. In the event of a Triggering Release, we shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the locked-up party within five business days of the occurrence of such Triggering Release, which notification obligation may be satisfied by the issuance of a press release through a major news service, or on a Form 8-K, announcing such Triggering Release; provided that the failure by us to give such notice shall not give rise to any claim or liability against us or the Representatives, except, in respect of us, in the case of bad faith on the part of us.

Our common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LFST.”

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, which involves making bids for, purchasing and selling shares of common stock in the open market for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock while this offering is in progress. These stabilizing transactions may include making short sales of common stock, which involves the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common stock than they are required to purchase in this offering, and purchasing shares of common stock on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales may be “covered” shorts, which are short positions in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares referred to above, or may be “naked” shorts, which are short positions in excess of that amount. The underwriters may close out any covered short position either by exercising their option to purchase additional shares, in whole or in part, or by purchasing shares in the open market. In making this determination, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market compared to the price at which the underwriters may purchase shares through the option to purchase additional shares. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. To the extent that the underwriters create a naked short position, they will purchase shares in the open market to cover the position.

The underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M of the Securities Act, they may also engage in other activities that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common stock, including the imposition of penalty bids. This means that if the underwriters purchase common stock in the open market in stabilizing transactions or to cover short sales, the underwriters that sold those shares as part of this offering may be required to repay the underwriting discount received by them. These activities may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock, and as a result, the price of the common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise

S-14

might exist in the open market. If the underwriters commence these activities, they may discontinue them at any time. The underwriters may carry out these transactions on Nasdaq, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

Other than in the United States, no action has been taken by us, the selling stockholders or the underwriters that would permit a public offering of the securities offered by this prospectus supplement in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The securities offered by this prospectus supplement may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this prospectus supplement or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such securities be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction.

The underwriters and their affiliates have provided in the past to us and our affiliates and may provide from time to time in the future certain commercial banking, financial advisory, investment banking and other services for us and such affiliates in the ordinary course of their business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions. In addition, from time to time, the underwriters and their affiliates may effect transactions for their own account or the account of customers, and hold on behalf of themselves or their customers, long or short positions in our debt or equity securities or loans, and may do so in the future. The underwriters and their affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and nonfinancial activities and services. The underwriters and their affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, a variety of these services to the us and to persons and entities with relationships with us, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

Conflicts of Interest

An affiliate of TPG Capital BD, LLC beneficially owns in excess of 10% of our issued and outstanding common stock and is expected to receive more than 5% of the net proceeds in this offering. As a result of the foregoing relationship, TPG Capital BD, LLC, an affiliate of TPG Global, LLC and an underwriter in this offering, is deemed to have a “conflict of interest” under Rule 5121 of FINRA. Accordingly, this offering is being made in compliance with the applicable provisions of Rule 5121. Pursuant to that rule, the appointment of a “qualified independent underwriter” is not required in connection with this offering as the securities offered have a bona fide public market. TPG Capital BD, LLC will not confirm sales of securities to any account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior written approval of the customer.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of an automatic shelf registration statement that we filed with the SEC as a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under this automatic shelf registration statement, the selling stockholders, who will be named in a prospectus supplement, may offer, at any time and from time to time, in one or more offerings, together or separately, shares of common stock described in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement in amounts, at prices and on other terms to be determined at the time of the applicable offering.

This prospectus relates solely to the common stock that the selling stockholders may offer from time to time.

This prospectus is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before making an investment in our common stock described in this prospectus. This prospectus provides you with a general description of our common stock the selling stockholders may offer.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The statements contained in this prospectus or in our other documents that are incorporated by reference herein that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, the economy, future plans and strategies, and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “envision,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,” “contemplate” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. For example, all statements we make relating to: our ability to grow our business, expand access to our patients and our payors and invest in our platform; our plan to partner with additional hospital systems, large primary care groups and other specialist groups; our expectation that we will continue to open de novo centers and acquire new centers; our growth rates and financial results; our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives and strategies; and our expected market opportunity are forward-looking statements.

Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include:

vi

For the reasons described above, we caution you against placing undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which should also be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are incorporated by reference herein. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this prospectus speaks only as of the date on which we make it. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves risks. You should carefully review the risk factors and other cautionary statements, including those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents we file with the SEC, which have been or will be incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and the risk factors and other information contained in the applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus. The risks and uncertainties in the documents referred to above, as well as other matters discussed in those documents, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects and the market price of our common stock. Moreover, the risks and uncertainties discussed in the foregoing documents are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face, and our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects and the market price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected by other matters that are not known to us or that we currently do not consider to be material risks to our business.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common stock by any selling stockholders. All of the shares of our common stock offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the selling stockholders. We have agreed to pay certain expenses in connection with the registration of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

Information regarding the identities of any selling stockholders, any material relationships the selling stockholders have had within the past three years with the Company, the beneficial ownership of our common stock by the selling stockholders, the number of shares to be offered by the selling stockholders and the percentage to be owned by the selling stockholders after completion of the applicable offering will be set forth in a prospectus supplement, in a post-effective amendment, or in filings we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description summarizes important terms of our capital stock. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by (i) the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our second amended and restated bylaws (our “bylaws”), each of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and (ii) certain provisions of Delaware law. For more information on how you can obtain our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, see “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.”

Our authorized capital stock consists of 800,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 per share. As of May 1, 2024, 382,287,766 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock are outstanding.

Common Stock

Dividend rights. Subject to preferences that may apply to shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at the times and in the amounts as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time.

Voting rights. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of shares of our common stock have no cumulative voting rights.

Preemptive rights. Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive or other similar subscription rights to purchase any of our securities.

Conversion or redemption rights. Our common stock is neither convertible nor redeemable.

Liquidation rights. Upon our liquidation, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our assets that are legally available for distribution, after payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any holders of preferred stock then outstanding.

Preferred Stock

Our Board of Directors may, without further action by our stockholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of shares of preferred stock in series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the designations, powers, preferences, privileges and relative participating, optional or special rights, as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of outstanding shares of preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of dividends on shares of our common stock. Holders of shares of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of our liquidation before any payment is made to the holders of shares of our common stock. Under certain circumstances, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may render more difficult or tend to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our securities or the removal of incumbent management. Upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of directors then in office, our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, may issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the holders of shares of our common stock and the market value of our common stock. Upon consummation of this offering, there will be no shares of preferred stock outstanding, and we have no present intention to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Stockholders Agreement

In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into a stockholders agreement with certain of our stockholders, including investment entities affiliated with TPG Global, LLC (“TPG”), Summit Partners

5

(“Summit”) and Silversmith Capital Partners (“Silversmith” and, together with TPG and Summit, the “Principal Stockholders”), pursuant to which such parties have specified board representation rights, governance rights and other rights.

Registration Rights

Certain of our stockholders, including investment entities affiliated with our Principal Stockholders and certain of our executive officers, are entitled to rights with respect to the registration of shares of common stock under the Securities Act. These registration rights are contained in a registration rights agreement that we entered into with such stockholders in connection with our initial public offering.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Delaware Law and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our bylaws contain provisions that may delay, defer or discourage another party from acquiring control of us. We expect that these provisions will discourage coercive takeover practices or inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with the Board of Directors, which we believe may result in an improvement of the terms of any such acquisition in favor of our stockholders. However, they may also discourage acquisitions that some stockholders may favor.

These provisions include:

6

Exclusive Forum

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, subject to limited exceptions, the state or federal courts within the State of Delaware will be exclusive forums for (1) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (2) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or our stockholders, (3) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our bylaws, (4) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our bylaws or (5) any other action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided that, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or to any claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation also provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the U.S. federal district courts shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any claims arising under the Securities Act. Although we believe these provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware and certain federal securities law, these provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.

Section 203 of the DGCL

We have elected in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation not to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”), an antitakeover law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder, unless (with certain exceptions):

7

While we will not be subject to any anti-takeover effects of Section 203, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that have the same effect as Section 203, except that they provide that investment funds affiliated with our Principal Stockholders will not be deemed to be an “interested stockholder,” regardless of the percentage of our voting stock owned by investment funds affiliated with our Principal Stockholders, and accordingly we will not be subject to such restrictions.

Corporate Opportunities

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that we renounce any interest or expectancy in the business opportunities of our Principal Stockholders and each of their respective partners, principals, directors, officers, members, managers and/or employees, including any of the foregoing who serve as officers or directors of the Company, and each such party shall not have any obligation to offer us those opportunities unless presented to one of our directors or officers in his or her capacity as a director or officer.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and requires that we will provide them with customary indemnification. We have also entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of our directors that provide them, in general, with customary indemnification in connection with their service to us or on our behalf. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable. We also maintain officers’ and directors’ liability insurance that insures against liabilities that our officers and directors may incur in such capacities.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Equiniti Trust Company, LLC.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LFST.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

This prospectus relates to the possible resale, from time to time, by the selling stockholders to be identified in a prospectus supplement of our common stock.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of the common stock offered hereby directly to one or more purchasers or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, or through a combination of any of these methods of sale. The selling stockholders will be responsible for any underwriting discounts or agent’s commissions attributable to the resale of the shares of our common stock. Shares of our common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These prices will be determined by the selling stockholders or by agreement between such selling stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent who receives fees or commissions in connection with a sale. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act rather than under this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement.

In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers which may engage in short sales of shares of our common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver the shares of our common stock to close out such short position. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that require the delivery by such broker-dealers of the shares of our common stock, which shares may be resold thereafter pursuant to this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement.

9

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders, or commissions from purchasers of the shares of our common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be less than or in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved).

With respect to a particular offering of shares of common stock held by the selling stockholders, to the extent required, an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, will be prepared and will set forth the following information:

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

Underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be entitled to indemnification by us and the selling stockholders against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof.

The selling stockholders will be subject to the Exchange Act, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our common stock by the selling stockholders and their affiliates, as applicable.

There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the shares of our common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement forms a part.
