Paul B. Kusserow, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “I am very proud of our third quarter results which have bested both our internal and external expectations and have allowed us to increase our full year 2020 guidance ranges. Home health and hospice have shown strong recoveries and returned to growth this quarter which is no small feat given the continued impact of COIVD-19. We are well underway with our integration of Aseracare, have paid down a large portion of our already low debt and continue to drive prodigious amounts of cash flow. Most importantly, we have done all of this while delivering the highest quality care and continuing our relentless focus on clinical quality. The importance of caring for people in their homes, wherever they call home, has never been more evident, and as such, we are well positioned for continued success. A special thank you to all of our clinician staff for continuing to do what you do best. It is because of your compassion, bravery and tireless efforts that we are able to deliver another great quarter.”

  • Net service revenue is anticipated to be in the range of $2.067 billion to $2.072 billion.

  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share is anticipated to be in the range of $6.02 to $6.08 (inclusive of $0.72 income tax benefit related to executive stock option exercise) based on an estimated 33.4 million shares outstanding.

This guidance excludes the effects of any future acquisitions, if any are made.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes reconciliations of the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules are as follows: (1) adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc. before provision for income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization, excluding certain items; (2) adjusted net service revenue, defined as net service revenue excluding certain items; (3) adjusted other operating income, defined as other operating income excluding certain items; (4) adjusted net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc., defined as net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc. excluding certain items; and (5) adjusted net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc. per diluted share, defined as net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc. common stockholders per diluted share excluding certain items. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, are useful gauges of our current performance and are also included in internal management reporting. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not more meaningful than or as an alternative to the GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release and the company’s financial statements. Non-GAAP measures as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures consistently.
