Addus HomeCare Reports First Quarter 2014 Results
First Quarter Financial Highlights
Palatine, IL, May 1, 2014 Addus HomeCare
Corporation (Nasdaq: ADUS), a comprehensive provider of home and community based services which are primarily social in nature and are provided in the home, focused on the dual eligible population, announced today its financial results for the first
quarter ended March 31, 2014.
First Quarter Review
Total net service revenues from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2014 were $71.7 million, a 13.8 percent increase compared to $63.0 million in
the prior year quarter. Same store sales accounted for 5.6 percent of the increase with 8.2 percent generated by recently completed acquisitions. Net income from continuing operations was $2.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to $0.25
per diluted share in 2013, with $0.04 of the decrease attributable to an increase in income tax expense.
Mark Heaney, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Addus HomeCare, stated: We are pleased with our performance for the quarter. Despite a very challenging winter across most of our service area, our direct care staff still managed to provide essential services to our at-risk
population. We realized some revenue loss attributable to weather, but still achieved same store revenue growth of 5.6 percent, reflecting strong service delivery levels and continuing census growth which we attribute to the sales programs we
initiated last year.
Mr. Heaney also commented that: During the quarter we made further progress, developing relationships
and implementing technology, in preparation for the transformation to managed care. Our pilot programs with Aetna and Centene are progressing well. While some states are delaying implementation dates for dual pilot programs, we are confident of
their eventual transition to managed care providers as planned. We continue to invest in technology and infrastructure, preparing our company to meet the higher standards expected by managed care.
Same store revenues grew by 5.6 percent based in large part to an 8.0 percent increase in average same store census while acquired census added an additional
6.3 percent for total census growth of 14.3 percent when compared to the prior year quarter. Billable hours per business day increased 16.0 percent, offset by a slight decline in average revenues per billable hour.
Net income from continuing operations before taxes increased despite lost service days / hours due to inclement weather in many of our markets. Net income was
also reduced by increased investment spending on information technology and a new care system, as well as higher costs related to the Company s Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 compliance program.
The Company ended the quarter with nearly $17 million in cash and $43 million available under its revolving line of credit, with $4.2 million of free cash
flow generated from operations in the quarter, before considering working capital needs and investments in the new Support Center.
The information provided in this release includes Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company defines as earnings before
discontinued operations, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, M&A expense 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 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.
