Corporation Announces Estimate of Certain Financial Results
for its Year Ended December
31, 2021 and Date of Issuance of Actual Financial Results
MECHANICSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA
- January 17, 2022 - Select Medical Holdings Corporation ("Select Medical," "we," "us,"
or "our") (NYSE: SEM) today announced an estimate of certain results for its full year ended December 31, 2021 in advance
of the announcement of actual results. Select Medical will release its actual financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended
December 31, 2021 on Thursday, February 24, 2022 after the market closes.
Select Medical expects its
net operating revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 to be approximately $6,204 million. Select Medical expects earnings excluding
interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain (loss) on early retirement of debt, stock compensation expense, gain (loss)
on sale of businesses, and equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries, or Adjusted EBITDA, for the year ended December
31, 2021 to be approximately $947 million. Select Medical expects fully diluted earnings per common share for the year ended December
31, 2021 to be in the range of $2.90 to $2.92. When Select Medical issues its business outlook for the year ended December 31, 2022, it
will readdress its target compound annual growth rates for revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and earnings per common share.
The above expectations regarding
Select Medical's results for the year ended December 31, 2021 are management estimates and projections based on currently available
information, and are subject to change upon completion of Select Medical's financial statement closing process and audit.
A reconciliation of full
year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA expectations to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure is presented in table I of this release. Please
refer to Select Medical's most recent Form 10-Q filing for a discussion of Select Medical's use of Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating
financial performance and determining resource allocation. Each item presented in table I is an estimation of full year 2021 expectations
(dollars in millions).
Our business outlook
issued on November 4, 2021 reflected the best information available at the time and our best estimates about the financial forecast
of Select Medical for the year ending December 31, 2021. During the fourth quarter however, we experienced, predominantly in our
critical illness recovery hospital segment, a higher than expected use of agency clinical staff and higher than expected costs for
agency in our hospitals. This unexpected significant increase in our labor costs had a detrimental effect on our Adjusted EBITDA and
diluted earnings per common share for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.
The unpredictable effects
of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the duration and extent of disruption on Select Medical's operations and increases to our labor
costs, creates uncertainties about Select Medical's future operating results and financial condition. Please refer to our risk factors
previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for
Select Medical will host
