Fourth Quarter 2017 Financial Results

AAC breaks down its revenues between client related revenue and non-client related revenue. Client related revenue includes: (1) residential treatment facility services and related professional services; (2) outpatient facility services, related professional services and sober living services; and (3) client related diagnostic services, which includes point of care drug testing and client related diagnostic laboratory services. Non-client related revenue includes marketing and diagnostic services provided to third parties. Prior period results have been conformed to the current period presentation.

Total revenue increased 19% to $86.1 million compared with $72.4 million in the same period in the prior year.

Residential treatment facility revenue increased 40% to $71.5 million compared with $51.2 million in the same period in the prior year. ADR increased 58% to $1,054 compared with $667 in the same period in the prior year.

Outpatient and sober living facility revenue increased 59% to $9.0 million compared with $5.7 million in the same period in the prior year. ARV increased 16% to $418 compared with $360 in the same period in the prior year.

Client related diagnostic services revenue was down 78% to $3.1 million compared with $14.2 million in the same period in the prior year. The decrease in client related diagnostic services is a result of previously anticipated lower reimbursements combined with a shift in the mix of client related diagnostic services from higher reimbursed tests to lower reimbursed tests.

Non-client related revenue increased 104% to $2.5 million compared with $1.2 million in the same period in the prior year.

Net loss available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders was $18.8 million, or ($0.80) per diluted common share, compared with net income available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders of $0.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted common share, in the prior-year period. Included in the net loss available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders is the accrued litigation liability of $23.3 million, or ($0.70) per diluted common share, related to the estimated settlement of the Tennessee class action litigation and the Nevada derivative litigation matters. Also included in the net loss available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders is a non-cash increase in the Company's provision for income taxes of $3.5 million, or ($0.15) per diluted common share, related to the estimated impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the net deferred tax assets. These estimates may be refined as further information becomes available.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 35% to $15.1 million compared with $11.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted net income available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders decreased to $2.4 million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, compared with $3.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share, for the same period in the prior year.

Client related diagnostic services revenue was down 50% to $32.5 million compared with $64.4 million in the prior year.

2018 Outlook

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," a replacement of Revenue Recognition Topic 605. The Company adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2018. Under ASC 606, the majority of the provision for doubtful accounts, which historically was reported as an operating expense, will now be reported as a direct reduction to revenue in 2018. This change in presentation will reduce revenues and operating expenses by the same amount and is not expected to have an effect on net income or earnings per share.

AAC introduces its guidance for the full year 2018 in the table below. Results for 2018 full year guidance have been provided inclusive of ASC 606, and for comparability only, 2018 full year guidance has also been provided excluding the impact of ASC 606 (dollars in millions, except share data):

    Adjusted EBITDA                                                                        $62 - $65                      $62 - $65

    Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Common Share                                         $0.70 - $0.75                  $0.70 - $0.75

The Company expects an annual effective tax rate of 24% to 26% and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding of approximately 24 million for the year.

This outlook above does not include the impact of any future acquisitions, including the pending acquisition of AdCare, transaction-related costs, litigation settlement or expenses related to legal defenses.

With respect to the "2018 Outlook" above, reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per diluted common share guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable efforts. This inability results from the inherent difficulty in forecasting generally and quantifying certain projected amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. In particular, sufficient information is not available to calculate certain adjustments required for such reconciliations, including de novo start-up and other expense and acquisition-related expenses. We expect these adjustments may have a potentially significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

    Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders and adjusted diluted earnings per common share (herein collectively referred to as "Non-GAAP Disclosures") are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined under the rules and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, each of which are defined below.
     Management believes the Non-GAAP Disclosures provide investors with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our underlying business performance and trends. We believe the Non-GAAP Disclosures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results.  The Non-GAAP Disclosures should not be
     considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The items excluded from the Non-GAAP Disclosures are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or other financial statement items presented in the condensed
     consolidated financial statements. Because the Non-GAAP Disclosures are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP, the Non-GAAP Disclosures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.


    Management defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) available to AAC Holdings, Inc. common stockholders adjusted for interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, income tax benefit, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest, stock-based compensation and related tax reimbursements, litigation settlement and California matter related expense,
     acquisition-related expense (which includes professional services for accounting, legal, valuation services and licensing expenses), de novo start-up and other expenses, employee severance expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on contingent consideration and facility closure operating losses and expense.
