Operating Results

“We continue to make progress on our objectives to recruit and develop talented leaders, be the provider of choice in each community we serve through quality care and operational excellence, and generate strong cash flow for our stakeholders,” said Brent Guerisoli, Pennant’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our third quarter results reflect another step forward operationally as we seek to unlock the significant latent potential in our existing business. In our home health business, we experienced strong admission volume, while our hospice average daily census grew sequentially. We saw continued momentum in our senior living segment recovery, with gains in occupancy and revenue per occupied room, reflecting ongoing healthy demand for our high quality services. We look forward to accelerating results across both segments as we head into 2023 and as our leaders drive revenue and contain costs despite an inflationary operating environment.”

During the quarter and since, the Company completed the acquisition of Ardent Hospice and Palliative Care with locations in southern and central California, and Kenosha Visiting Nurse Association in Kenosha, Wisconsin. “We are excited about the opportunity to add these quality home health and hospice agencies to the Pennant family and look forward to reporting more activity on this front in 2023. Our recently acquired agencies are developing strength within our portfolio and add significant opportunity for organic growth for years to come. As we continue to generate strong cash flow and improved operational momentum in both segments, we are well positioned to pursue significant acquisition opportunities consistent with our disciplined growth strategy,” commented John Gochnour, Pennant’s President and Chief Operating Officer.

Jennifer Freeman, Pennant's Chief Financial Officer, reported that the Company ended the third quarter with strong liquidity. Operating cash flow for the third quarter was $8.1 million, bringing year-to-date operating cash flow to $19.2 million, excluding $6.2 million in Medicare advance payments the Company repaid in the first half of the year. As of September 30, 2022, we had $3.0 million of cash on hand and $88.3 million of availability on its revolving line of credit. Ms. Freeman reported that the Company had a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.0x and a lease-adjusted net debt-to-adjusted EBITDAR ratio of 5.59x as of quarter-end. “Our cash flow continues to improve and reflect the earning power and resiliency of our business. Having completed repayment of the Medicare advance payments, our ability to generate cash should continue to improve and provide a greater war chest for opportunistic investments, accelerating our ability to grow strategically,” said Ms. Freeman.

A discussion of the company's use of non-GAAP financial measures is set forth below. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDA, as well as a reconciliation of GAAP earnings per share, net income to adjusted net earnings per share and adjusted net income, appear in the financial data portion of this release. More complete information is contained in the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which has been filed with the SEC today and can be viewed on the company’s website at www.pennantgroup.com.

2022 Guidance

Management anticipates 2022 annual guidance of total revenue between $458 million and $462 million, earnings per diluted share between $0.55 and $0.60, and adjusted EBITDA between $31.0 million and $33.5 million. The Company’s 2022 annual guidance is based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 30.3 million and a 25.6% effective tax rate. The guidance assumes, among other things, anticipated reimbursement rate adjustments, no unannounced acquisitions, and the lingering effects of COVID-19. It excludes the tax-effected costs at start-up operations, share-based compensation, acquisition-related costs, and loss on disposition of assets and impairments.

(a) Segment Adjusted EBITDAR from Operations is net income attributable to the Company's reportable segments excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, rent, and, in order to view the operations performance on a comparable basis from period to period, certain adjustments including: (1) costs at start-up operations, (2) share-based compensation, (3) acquisition related costs and credit allowances, (4) redundant and nonrecurring costs associated with the Transition Services Agreement, (5) the loss related to senior living operations transferred to Ensign, (6) unusual or non-recurring charges, and (7) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. General and administrative expenses are not allocated to the reportable segments, and are included as “All Other”, accordingly the segment earnings measure reported is before allocation of corporate general and administrative expenses.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA consists of net income before (a) interest expense, net, (b) (benefits) provisions for income taxes, and (c) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income attributable to the Company before (a) (benefits) provisions for income taxes, (b) depreciation and amortization, (c) costs incurred for start-up operations, including rent and excluding depreciation, interest and income taxes, (d) share-based compensation expense, (e) non-capitalizable acquisition related costs and credit allowances, (f) redundant or non-recurring transition services costs, (g) loss related to senior living operations transferred to Ensign, (h) usual or non-recurring charges and (i) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR is a valuation measure applicable to current periods only and consists of net income attributable to the Company before (a) interest expense, net, (b) (benefits) provisions for income taxes, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) rent-cost of services, (e) costs incurred for start-up operations, excluding rent, depreciation, interest and income taxes, (f) share-based compensation expense, (g) acquisition related costs and and credit allowances, (h) redundant or non-recurring transition services costs, (i) loss related to senior living operations transferred to Ensign, (j) usual or non-recurring charges and (j) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. The company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, consolidated adjusted EBITDAR, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share provides important supplemental information to management and investors to evaluate the company’s operating performance. The company believes disclosure of adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated adjusted EBITDAR has economic substance because the excluded revenues and expenses are infrequent in nature and are variable in nature, or do not represent current revenues or cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of these measures as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per share for other companies in the company's industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. For further information regarding why the company believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses this measure, and some of the limitations associated with the use of this measure, please refer to the company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The company’s periodic filings are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or under the "Financial Information" link of the Investor Relations section on Pennant’s website at http://www.pennantgroup.com.
