ADDUS HOMECARE ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Frisco, Texas (November 4, 2024) Addus HomeCare Corporation (NASDAQ: ADUS), a provider of home care services, today announced its financial
results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 Highlights:
Net service revenues were $289.8 million
for the third quarter of 2024, a 7.0% increase compared with $270.7 million for the third quarter of 2023. Net income was $20.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $15.4 million for the third quarter of 2023, while
net income per diluted share was $1.10 compared with $0.95 for the same period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.1% to $34.3 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $30.9 million for the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income
was $23.8 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared with $18.8 million for the prior-year period, while adjusted net income per diluted share was $1.30 compared with $1.15 for the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income per diluted
share for the third quarter of 2024 excludes acquisition expenses of $0.08 and stock-based compensation expense of $0.12. The weighted average number of shares outstanding increased to approximately 18.3 million from approximately
16.5 million in the second quarter primarily as a result of the completed public offering of 1,725,000 shares on June 28, 2024 (See the end of press release for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP and
GAAP financial measures.)
For the first nine months of 2024, net service revenues increased 9.6% to $857.5 million from $782.3 million for the
prior-year period. Net income was $54.1 million for the first nine months of 2024 compared with $42.9 million for the same period in 2023, and net income per diluted share was $3.17 compared with $2.63 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA
increased 19.4% to $102.0 million for the first nine months of 2024 from $85.4 million for the first nine months of 2023. Adjusted net income was $65.9 million for the first nine months of 2024 compared with $52.1 million for the
first nine months of 2023, while adjusted net income per diluted share was $3.86 compared with $3.20 for the prior-year period.
results, Dirk Allison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, Addus delivered another strong financial and operating performance for the third quarter of 2024, highlighted by 7.0% top line growth and 11.1% growth in Adjusted EBITDA
compared to the third quarter of 2023. These results reflect the consistent favorable growth trends we have delivered to date in 2024, driven by solid organic growth and the contribution from recent acquisitions. Demand for our services continues to
fuel our growth, reflecting a greater awareness of the value of home-based care as the preferred and most cost-effective option for many individuals. With our expanding scale and market coverage, Addus is well positioned to meet this demand with our
ability to offer home-based services across the care continuum.
ADUS Announces Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Our personal care business continued to perform well, accounting for 74.3% of our overall revenues for
the third quarter of 2024, with higher patient volumes supported by favorable hiring trends. Personal care has been the key growth driver for Addus this year with consistent year-over-year improvement. For the third quarter of 2024, we delivered
6.8% organic growth in revenue on a same-store basis over the corresponding period last year, reflecting robust demand and favorable reimbursement support across the markets where we operate.
On the clinical side, our results included the operations of Tennessee Quality Care, a provider of home health, hospice, and private duty nursing
services, acquired by Addus on August 1, 2023. We continued to see steady improvement in our hospice business with revenues up 3.5% on a same-store basis and a modest increase in average daily census compared with the third quarter last year.
Our home health business, which is our smallest segment, accounted for 5.9% of total revenue for the third quarter of 2024, said Allison.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $222.9 million with capacity and availability under its revolving credit
facility of $511.5 million and $503.5 million, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities was $48.5 million for the third quarter of 2024, inclusive of a one-time working capital
benefit of $9.7 million expected to revert in the fourth quarter. As previously disclosed, subsequent to the end of the quarter, Addus entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to increase the Company s revolving credit
facility from $600 million to $650 million and extend the maturity date through July 2028.
Allison added, We will continue to maintain a conservative balance sheet and pursue a capital allocation strategy that brings additional value to our
shareholders. Acquisitions represent a significant use of capital for Addus, and we will continue to target operations that are aligned with our overall growth strategy to add clinical services where we have a strong personal care presence. We will
also seek opportunities to add operations in select personal care markets where we can enter at scale. In line with this strategy, during the second quarter, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire the personal care operations of Gentiva.
These operations deliver personal care services to over 16,000 patients per day in a seven-state service area, including Texas and Missouri, which are new states for Addus. We are excited about the opportunity to expand our market reach, especially
in Texas where we will become the largest provider of personal care services. Having broader market coverage supports our ability to hire and retain caregivers and also provides Addus with an advantage in developing value-based contract
arrangements. We expect to close the Gentiva acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2024, and our team has been diligently working on transition planning to integrate these operations.
As we continue to expand our operations, we are proud of the leadership role we are playing in meeting the critical need for home-based care. We commend
the work of our dedicated caregivers across our operations who make this possible for more patients and their families. We are excited about the opportunities ahead to build on our momentum, and we look forward to another successful year for Addus
in 2024, added Allison.
