ADDUS HOMECARE ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Frisco, Texas (May 2, 2022) Addus HomeCare Corporation (NASDAQ: ADUS), a provider of home care services, today announced its financial results
for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.
First Quarter 2022 Highlights:
Net service revenues were $226.6 million
for the first quarter of 2022, a 10.4% increase compared with $205.3 million for the first quarter of 2021. Net income was $8.5 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared with $8.9 million for the first quarter of 2021, while net
income per diluted share was $0.53 compared with $0.55 for the same period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA increased 16.1% to $22.4 million for the first quarter of 2022 from $19.3 million for the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income per
diluted share was $0.77 for the first quarter of 2022 compared with $0.74 for the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income per diluted share for the first quarter of 2022 excludes acquisition and de novo expenses of $0.13 and stock-based
compensation expense of $0.11. (See the end of press release for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP and GAAP financial measures.)
Commenting on the results, Dirk Allison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, Addus delivered a strong financial and operating performance for
the first quarter of 2022, despite some early challenges related to the surge of the Omicron variant of COVID-19. We had a significant number of caregivers in quarantine in January, which primarily affected
our personal care volumes and revenues, which are reimbursed on an hourly rate basis. We were pleased, however, to see a marked decline in caregiver quarantine rates starting in February and continuing through March, resulting in personal care
volumes returning to pre-Omicron levels. We are fortunate to have a team of dedicated caregivers who continue to provide outstanding care and support to our patients and their families in a safe and preferred
home environment. Like most health care providers, we are facing a tight labor market, and we continue to focus on implementing effective hiring and retention strategies to attract and retain caregivers.
Despite these challenges, we had positive trends across each of our operating segments, reflecting favorable demand for home-based care. Addus is well
positioned to meet this demand, having made the critical investments necessary to provide safe and cost-effective care in the home. For the first quarter, revenues for our personal care segment, which accounted for 74.8% of total revenue, were up
0.9% on a same-store basis. This trend primarily reflects recent rate increases in Illinois that were effective November 1, 2021, offset by the Omicron-related impact on volumes in January and February. Without the impact of Omicron on volumes,
our personal care segment would have been within our target range of 3-5% organic revenue growth. Our home health segment revenue more than doubled over the first quarter last year, reflecting the addition of
the acquired operations of Armada Home Health and Summit Home Health that were both completed in 2021. We continued to see improvement in our hospice segment, with same store revenues up 4.4% over the prior year and sequential growth in admissions.
The results for our hospice business included two months of contribution from the acquired operations of JourneyCare, which closed on February 1, 2022.
ADUS Announces First-Quarter 2022 Financial Results
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $124.8 million and bank debt of $259.9 million, with capacity and availability under its revolving
credit facility of $377.6 million and $109.6 million, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.0 million for the first quarter of 2022.
Allison added, We are excited about
the opportunities ahead for Addus in 2022. We have a proven operating model across the care continuum and are encouraged by the favorable demand trends for our services. Without question, the pandemic has demonstrated the value and safety of
home-based care. As such, we believe we have significant prospects for continued organic growth in our current markets as well as by entering new markets through selective acquisitions. We will continue to look at opportunities in each of our
operating segments with a focus on acquiring clinical services capabilities in markets where we already have strong personal care coverage, advancing our strategy to expand to more states with coverage of all three levels of home care. Under the
leadership of Cliff Blessing, our new Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer, we plan to use our financial strength to pursue our pipeline of potential acquisitions in support of our ongoing growth strategy.
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 acquisition and de novo expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure expenses and other costs, gain or loss on the
sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition and de novo expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure
expenses and other costs, loss on the sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as earnings per share, adjusted for acquisition and de novo expenses, stock compensation
expense, restructure expenses and other costs, gain or loss on the sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defined adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share to exclude net COVID
expenses arising from the pandemic from the second quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021. 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.
