Encompass Health reports results for second quarter 2018 and updates full-year 2018 guidance

Encompass Health Corp. reported its results of operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Encompass Health Corp. (NYSE: EHC), a national leader in post-acute care, offering facility-based and home-based patient care through its network of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, home health agencies and hospice agencies, today reported its results of operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

"The second quarter was another strong quarter for Encompass Health with solid operating and financial results in both business segments," said President and Chief Executive Officer of Encompass Health, Mark Tarr. "We are moving forward with our strategic initiatives positioning our Company to be the post-acute provider of choice with a proven record of delivering high-quality, cost-effective integrated care. We continue to see growth opportunities in both business segments as the demographic tailwind resulting from the aging of the population is driving increased demand for the services we provide."

Revenue growth was driven by volume and pricing growth in the inpatient rehabilitation segment and volume growth in the home health and hospice segment. See the "Other Information" section of this release for discussion of the Company's adoption of a new accounting standard for revenue recognition.

The increase in income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per share and adjusted earnings per share resulted primarily from increased revenue and a lower effective tax rate resulting from income tax reform and tax planning strategies.

Growth in cash flows provided by operating activities and adjusted free cash flow resulted primarily from revenue growth and favorable working capital changes.

  • Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in net patient revenue per discharge. Discharge growth from new stores resulted from the Company's joint ventures in Westerville, Ohio (April 2017) and Jackson, Tennessee (July 2017), as well as wholly owned hospitals in Pearland, Texas (October 2017) and Shelby County, Alabama (April 2018). Growth in net patient revenue per discharge primarily resulted from an increase in reimbursement rates, retroactive price adjustments, and a year-over-year reduction in bad debt, which is now a component of revenue (see the "Other Information" section of this release).
  • Adjusted EBITDA - The increase in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth. Expense ratios in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the second quarter of 2017 benefited from retroactive price adjustments included in revenue and a year-over-year reduction in bad debt, which is now a component of revenue (see the "Other Information" section of this release). Salaries and benefits as a percent of net operating revenues benefited from labor management and higher volumes, as well as a year-over-year decrease in expenses related to workers' compensation. Other operating expenses as a percent of net operating revenues increased primarily due to increases in contract services and increases in provider taxes.

  • Revenue - Revenue growth was driven by volume growth, including the impact of the Camellia Healthcare acquisition which closed on May 1, 2018. Revenue per episode decreased 0.2% as the impact of Medicare reimbursement rate cuts was partially offset by the favorable resolution of a prior period Zone Program Integrity Contractor, or ZPIC, audit.

    Hospice revenue increased primarily due to same-store admissions growth of 35.2% and acquisitions.
  • Adjusted EBITDA - Growth in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth and operating leverage of support and overhead costs.

  • General and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of consolidated revenue primarily due to operating leverage resulting from revenue growth.

    During the second quarter of 2018, the Company invested $2.8 million in its rebranding and name change, all of which was included in general and administrative expenses. During the second quarter of 2017, the Company invested $1.7 million in its rebranding and name change.

"Strong year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA together with the favorable impact on net working capital from improved collections of accounts receivable contributed to first half adjusted free cash flow of $281.4 million, an increase of 10.8% over the first half of 2017," said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Encompass Health, Doug Coltharp. "This strong free cash flow generation enabled us to lower our leverage ratio to 3.0x at the end of the second quarter, even after funding the purchase of the Home Health Holdings rollover shares and the acquisition of Camellia Healthcare."

Other information

The information in this press release is summarized and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 (the "June 2018 Form 10-Q"), when filed, as well as the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 25, 2018 (the "Q2 Earnings Form 8?K"), to which this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1. In addition, the Company will post supplemental information today on its website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com for reference during its July 26, 2018 earnings call.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted a new accounting standard (ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers) which clarifies the standards for recognizing revenue. The impact to the Company's financial reporting was that amounts previously presented as provision for doubtful accounts became a component of net operating revenues. This had the effect of reducing net operating revenues but had no effect on Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share. The Company retrospectively adopted the new standard during the first quarter of 2018, which means previously reported quarterly and full-year results for 2017 have been updated to reflect the requirements of the new standard. For additional information, see the supplemental information posted on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com.

The financial data contained in the press release and supplemental information include non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company's adjusted earnings per share, leverage ratio, Adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted free cash flow. Reconciliations to their most comparable GAAP measure, except with regard to non-GAAP guidance, are included below, in the supplemental information, or in the Q2 Earnings Form 8-K. Readers are encouraged to review the "Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included in the Q2 Earnings Form 8-K which provides further explanation and disclosure regarding the Company's use of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Excluding net operating revenues, the Company does not provide guidance on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict, with reasonable certainty, the future impact of items that are deemed to be outside the control of the Company or otherwise non-indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Such items include government, class action, and related settlements; professional fees--accounting, tax, and legal; mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights; gains or losses related to hedging instruments; loss on early extinguishment of debt; adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims); items related to corporate and facility restructurings; and certain other items the Company believes to be non-indicative of its ongoing operations. These items cannot be reasonably predicted and will depend on several factors, including industry and market conditions, and could be material to the Company's results computed in accordance with GAAP.

However, the following reasonably estimable GAAP measures for 2018 would be included in a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA if the other reconciling GAAP measures could be reasonably predicted:

  • Interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees - estimate of $147 million to $157 million
  • Amortization of debt-related items - approximately $7 million

The Q2 Earnings Form 8-K and, when filed, the June 2018 Form 10-Q can be found on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com and the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
