ADDUS HOMECARE ANNOUNCES
FIRST-QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenue Increases 7.9% to $205.3 million
Net Income Increases to $8.9 Million, or $0.55 per Diluted Share,
and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share of $0.74
Adjusted EBITDA Increases 8.9% to $19.3 Million
Frisco, Texas (May 3, 2021) Addus HomeCare Corporation (NASDAQ: ADUS), a provider of home care services, today announced financial results for
the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Net service revenues were $205.3 million for the first quarter of 2021, a 7.9% increase compared with
$190.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. Net income was $8.9 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared with $8.7 million for the first quarter last year, while net income per diluted share was $0.55 compared with $0.54 for
the first quarter of 2020. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.74 for the first quarter of 2021 compared with $0.77 for the first quarter of 2020.
Adjusted net income per diluted share for the first quarter of 2021 excludes acquisition and de novo expenses of $0.08, restructuring and other costs of
$0.02, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.12, offset by the exclusion of a positive impact of net COVID-19 expenses of $0.03. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $19.3 million for the first quarter of
2021 from $17.7 million in the first quarter of 2020, an 8.9% increase. (See page 8 for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP and GAAP financial measures in this news release.)
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $125.5 million and bank debt of $196.3 million, while availability under its revolving credit
facility was $112.8 million. Net cash used in operating activities was $18.4 million for the first quarter of 2021, inclusive of the return of $10.8 million in CARES Act funding received as part of the Queen City acquisition.
Dirk Allison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Addus HomeCare, commented, We are particularly pleased to report first quarter financial and
operating results that compare favorably to the first quarter of 2020, our best ever first quarter and the last quarter not to be significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. First quarter 2021 results
reflect an improving public health environment, and we anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to steadily decrease in severity over the next several quarters. While we were impacted by both the
pandemic and the historic winter storm that interrupted business throughout many of our significant markets, we nevertheless saw overall revenue growth across each of our operating segments, including our acquired businesses, generating solid
comparisons to our record 2020 first quarter and providing a strong start to 2021.
We continue to see improving organic growth trends ahead of pre-pandemic levels in both personal care and home health. With the accelerating growth in vaccinations across the country and increasing facility access, we expect that we will begin to see a return to higher
volume trends in our hospice business. Ultimately, we believe Addus is well positioned to meet expected demand in all our operating segments as overall conditions improve and more restrictions are lifted.
Addus Homecare Announces First Quarter 2021 Financial Results
We also expect to benefit from the statewide Illinois rate increase that became effective April 1,
2021 and will help offset the most recent increase in the Chicago minimum wage. Illinois is an important market for Addus, and we were pleased to see the implementation of this rate increase following a previous delay.
Mr. Allison added, Despite COVID-19 challenges, we were able to complete three acquisitions in the second
half of last year, including our acquisition of Queen City Hospice on December 1, 2020.Integration of these transactions is largely complete, and our average daily census at Queen City has seen positive growth since acquisition. We continue to
have a solid pipeline of potential acquisitions that we will aggressively pursue, primarily focused on transactions that allow us to operate each of our hospice, home health and personal care segments in strategic markets. We have the financial
strength necessary to complete acquisitions that meet our objectives and we are confident that we can continue our record of delivering value from acquired operations.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information provided in this release includes adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per diluted share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income before the net COVID-19 expenses, acquisition and de novo expenses, stock-based compensation
expense, restructure expenses, and other costs. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, net COVID-19 expenses, acquisition and de novo
expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure expenses, and other costs. The Company defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as earnings per share, adjusted for net COVID-19 expenses, acquisition
and de novo expenses, stock compensation expense, restructure expenses, and other costs. The Company defines adjusted net service revenues as revenue adjusted for the closure of certain sites. The Company has provided, in the financial statement
tables included in this press release, a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income, a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to earnings per share, and a reconciliation of
adjusted net service revenues to net service revenues, in each case, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted net service revenues are
useful to investors, management and others in evaluating the Company s operating performance, to provide investors with insight and consistency in the Company s financial reporting and to present a basis for comparison of the
Company s business operations among periods, and to facilitate comparison with the results of the Company s peers. With respect to net COVID-19 expenses, the Company views these expenses as unrelated
to the Company s long-term performance, since they are directly related to the sudden onset COVID-19 pandemic.
