Addus HomeCare Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results
Strategic Alternatives for the Home Health Division
Third Quarter Financial Highlights
Palatine, IL, November 1, 2012 Addus HomeCare Corporation (Nasdaq: ADUS), a provider of home-based social and
medical services focused on the elderly dual eligible population, announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Third Quarter Review
Total net service revenues for the third quarter of 2012 were $71.0
million, a 2.3% increase compared to $69.4 million in the prior year quarter. Net income, before considering the effect of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in severance related costs for the Home Health division was $2.0 million, or $0.19
per diluted share. Net income for the third quarter of 2011, before considering the $16.0 million goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge was $1.8 million, or $0.17 per diluted share.
Mark Heaney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Addus HomeCare, stated, Our Home & Community segment continued to demonstrate positive growth during the third quarter and we continued
to focus on performance improvements in our Home Health segment.
Home & Community segment net service revenues for the third quarter of 2012 were $59.6 million, a
6.1% increase from the prior year quarter. Home & Community operating income, including depreciation and amortization but excluding corporate expenses, increased 10.7% to $7.5 million, or 12.6% of revenue, in the third quarter, compared to
$6.8 million, or 12.1% of revenue, in the prior year quarter. This improvement was primarily due to an increase in average census and related billable hours, lower bad debt expense as well as a continued focus on cost control.
Home Health segment net service revenues for the third quarter of 2012 were $11.4 million, a 13.6% decrease over the prior year quarter. Home Health had
operating income of $0.2 million, or 1.8% of revenues, before considering $0.3 million in severance related costs recorded in the third quarter and including depreciation and amortization but excluding corporate expenses, compared to operating
income of $0.2 million, or 1.4% of revenues, in the prior year quarter.
Total net service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $209.2 million, a 2.3% increase compared to $204.5 million in the same
prior year period. Net income, before considering the effect of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in severance related costs for the Home Health division was $4.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted share. Net income for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011, before considering the $16.0 million goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge was $4.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share.
Home & Community segment net service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $175.2 million, a 6.0% increase from the same prior year period. Home & Community
operating income, including depreciation and amortization but excluding corporate expenses, increased 15.9% to $21.0 million, or 12.0% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $18.1 million, or 11.0% of revenue, in
the same prior year period. This improvement was primarily due to an increase in average census and related billable hours, lower bad debt expense as well as a continued focus on cost control.
Home Health segment net service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $34.1 million, a 13.1% decrease over the same prior year
period. Home Health had an operating loss, including depreciation and amortization but excluding corporate expenses, of $1.3 million, or (3.9)% of revenues, compared to operating income of $1.7 million, or 4.4% of revenues, in the same prior year
period. Home Health segment net service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 included an adjustment recorded in the first quarter of 2012 to estimates of accrued Medicare revenues totaling $0.9 million, which reduced
profitability by $0.8 million.
Exploration of Strategic Alternatives
The Company has decided to explore strategic alternatives relative to its home health services business and has retained The Braff Group to assist in the process. There can be no assurance that this
review process will result in a transaction or strategic alternative of any kind or of the potential timing or terms of any such transaction or strategic alternative. The Company does not intend to disclose developments or provide updates on the
progress or status of this process unless it deems further disclosure is appropriate or required.
Chief Operating Officer to Leave
The Company announced today that Daniel Schwartz, Chief Operating Officer has accepted a senior position at another business not in
competition with Addus and thus, has submitted his resignation effective November 16, 2012.
Mr. Heaney stated, We appreciate
Daniel s contributions to Addus, especially with respect to his driving key operational and financial metrics. Daniel s leadership has been valuable in positioning the Company for the future, and we wish Daniel the best in his future
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information provided in this release includes Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company defines as earnings before goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge, revaluation
of contingent consideration, net interest (income) expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. The Company has provided, in the financial statement tables included in this press release, a reconciliation of
Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is 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 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.
