Revenues

Revenues are recorded during the period the health care services are provided, based upon the estimated amounts due from the patients and third-party payers. Third-party payers include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare and Medicaid programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies (including plans offered through the health insurance exchanges), and employers. Estimates of contractual allowances under managed care health plans are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. Revenues related to uninsured patients and uninsured copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage may have discounts applied (uninsured discounts and contractual discounts). We also record a provision for doubtful accounts (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record net self-pay revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. Our revenues from third-party payers, the uninsured and other for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are summarized in the following table (dollars in millions):

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Recent Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the International Accounting Standards Board issued a final, converged, principles-based standard on revenue recognition. Companies across all industries will use a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The new standard, which replaces nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, will require significant management judgments and change the way many companies recognize revenue in their financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB decided to defer the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for public entities and permit entities to adopt one year earlier if they choose. The FASB decided, based on its outreach to various stakeholders and continuing amendments to the new revenue standard, that a deferral was necessary to provide adequate time to effectively implement the new standard. We are continuing to evaluate the effects the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements and financial disclosures. We believe the most significant impact will be to the presentation of our income statement where the provision for doubtful accounts will be recorded as a direct reduction to revenues and will not be presented as a separate line item. We expect to adopt the new standard using the full retrospective application, and we do not currently believe the adoption will have a significant impact on our recognition of net revenues or related disclosures for any period.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for most leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2016-02’s transition provisions will be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2016-02 to determine how our financial statements will be affected, and we believe the primary effect of adopting the new standard will be to record right-of-use assets and obligations for our leases currently classified as operating leases.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 — ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we paid $189 million to acquire three hospital facilities (two of the hospital facilities have effective acquisition dates of July 1, 2017) and $106 million to acquire other nonhospital health care entities. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we paid $343 million to acquire three hospital facilities and $87 million to acquire other nonhospital health care entities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we received proceeds of $14 million and recognized a net pretax gain of $3 million related to sales of real estate and other investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we received proceeds of $14 million and recognized a net pretax gain of $5 million related to sales of real estate and other investments.

NOTE 3 — INCOME TAXES

Our liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $420 million, including accrued interest of $46 million, as of June 30, 2017 ($418 million and $45 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2016). Unrecognized tax benefits of $141 million ($137 million as of December 31, 2016) would affect the effective rate, if recognized.

Our provision for income taxes for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, included tax benefits of $9 million and $44 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, included tax benefits of $76 million and $118 million, respectively, related to the settlement of employee equity awards. Our provision for income taxes for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017 also included $10 million and $12 million, respectively, of reductions in interest expense (net of tax) related to taxing authority examinations.

We are subject to examination by federal, state and foreign taxing authorities. Depending on the resolution of any federal, state and foreign tax disputes, the completion of examinations by federal, state or foreign taxing authorities, or the expiration of statutes of limitation for specific taxing jurisdictions, we believe it is reasonably possible that our liability for unrecognized tax benefits may significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. However, we are currently unable to estimate the range of any possible change.

NOTE 4 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding equity awards and potential shares, computed using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (dollars and shares in millions, except per share amounts):

NOTE 6 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

We have entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties based on common notional principal amounts and maturity dates. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps effectively convert LIBOR indexed variable rate obligations to fixed interest rate obligations. The interest payments under these agreements are settled on a net basis. The net interest payments, based on the notional amounts in these agreements, generally match the timing of the related liabilities for the interest rate swap agreements which have been designated as cash flow hedges. The notional amounts of the swap agreements represent amounts used to calculate the exchange of cash flows and are not our assets or liabilities. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions.

The following table sets forth our interest rate swap agreements, which have been designated as cash flow hedges, at June 30, 2017 (dollars in millions):

 

     Notional

NOTE 7 — ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) emphasizes fair value is a market-based measurement, and fair value measurements should be determined based on the assumptions market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities. ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

 

11


Table of Contents

HCA HEALTHCARE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 7 — ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE (continued)

 

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment.

Cash Traded Investments

Our cash traded investments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Certain types of cash traded instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency. The valuation of these securities involves the consideration of market factors and management’s judgment.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We have entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements of these instruments.

Although we determined the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. We assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions, and at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we determined the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.

NOTE 9 — CONTINGENCIES

We operate in a highly regulated and litigious industry. As a result, various lawsuits, claims and legal and regulatory proceedings have been and can be expected to be instituted or asserted against us. We are also subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims for personal injuries or wrongful restriction of, or interference with, physicians’ staff privileges. In certain of these actions the claimants may seek punitive damages against us which may not be covered by insurance. We are also subject to claims by various taxing authorities for additional taxes and related interest and penalties. The resolution of any such lawsuits, claims or legal and regulatory proceedings could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Health care companies are subject to numerous investigations by various governmental agencies. Under the federal False Claims Act, private parties have the right to bring qui tam, or “whistleblower,” suits against companies that submit false claims for payments to, or improperly retain overpayments from, the government. Some states have adopted similar state whistleblower and false claims provisions. Certain of our individual facilities have received, and from time to time, other facilities may receive, government inquiries from, and may be subject to investigation by, federal and state agencies. Depending on whether the underlying conduct in these or future inquiries or investigations could be considered systemic, their resolution could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

We operate in one line of business, which is operating hospitals and related health care entities. We operate in two geographically organized groups: the National and American Groups. The National Group includes 86 hospitals located in Alaska, California, Florida, southern Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, northern Kentucky, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Utah and Virginia, and the American Group includes 80 hospitals located in Colorado, northern Georgia, Kansas, southern Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas. We also operate six hospitals in England, and these facilities are included in the Corporate and other group.

Adjusted segment EBITDA is defined as income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, gains on sales of facilities, legal claim costs, income taxes and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. We use adjusted segment EBITDA as an analytical indicator for purposes of allocating resources to geographic areas and assessing their performance. Adjusted segment EBITDA is commonly used as an analytical indicator within the health care industry, and also serves as a measure of leverage capacity and debt service ability.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes certain disclosures which contain “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include statements regarding expected share-based compensation expense, expected capital expenditures and expected net claim payments and all other statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can be identified by the use of words like “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “initiative” or “continue.” These forward-looking statements are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, many of which are beyond our control, which could significantly affect current plans and expectations and our future financial position and results of operations. These factors include, but are not limited to, (1) the impact of our substantial indebtedness and the ability to refinance such indebtedness on acceptable terms, (2) the impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Health Reform Law”), including the effects of any repeal of, or changes to, the Health Reform Law, the possible enactment of additional federal or state health care reforms and possible changes to other federal, state or local laws or regulations affecting the health care industry, (3) the effects related to the continued implementation of the sequestration spending reductions required under the Budget Control Act of 2011, and related legislation extending these reductions, and the potential for future deficit reduction legislation that may alter these spending reductions, which include cuts to Medicare payments, or create additional spending reductions, (4) increases in the amount and risk of collectability of uninsured accounts and deductibles and copayment amounts for insured accounts, (5) the ability to achieve operating and financial targets, and attain expected levels of patient volumes and control the costs of providing services, (6) possible changes in Medicare, Medicaid and other state programs, including Medicaid upper payment limit programs or Waiver Programs, that may impact reimbursements to health care providers and insurers, (7) the highly competitive nature of the health care business, (8) changes in service mix, revenue mix and surgical volumes, including potential declines in the population covered under managed care agreements, the ability to enter into and renew managed care provider agreements on acceptable terms and the impact of consumer-driven health plans and physician utilization trends and practices, (9) the efforts of insurers, health care providers and others to contain health care costs, (10) the outcome of our continuing efforts to monitor, maintain and comply with appropriate laws, regulations, policies and procedures, (11) increases in wages and the ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel, including affiliated physicians, nurses and medical and technical support personnel, (12) the availability and terms of capital to fund the expansion of our business and improvements to our existing facilities, (13) changes in accounting practices, (14) changes in general economic conditions nationally and regionally in our markets, (15) the emergence and effects related to infectious diseases, (16) future divestitures which may result in charges and possible impairments of long-lived assets, (17) changes in business strategy or development plans, (18) delays in receiving payments for services provided, (19) the outcome of pending and any future tax audits, disputes and litigation associated with our tax positions, (20) potential adverse impact of known and unknown government investigations, litigation and other claims that may be made against us, (21) the impact of potential cybersecurity incidents or security breaches, (22) our ongoing ability to demonstrate meaningful use of certified electronic health record (“EHR”) technology, and (23) other risk factors described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future financial position and results of operations may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of HCA. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in this report, which forward-looking statements reflect management’s views only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

Second Quarter 2017 Operations Summary

Revenues increased to $10.733 billion in the second quarter of 2017 from $10.319 billion in the second quarter of 2016. Net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc. totaled $657 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to $658 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Second quarter 2017 results include net gains on sales of facilities of $2 million. Second quarter 2016 results include legal claim costs of $10 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and net gains on sales of facilities of $6 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. Our provisions for income taxes for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016 included tax benefits of $9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and $44 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, respectively, related to excess tax benefits from employee equity award settlements. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 375.338 million shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and 398.659 million shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. During 2016 and the first six months of 2017, we repurchased 36.325 million shares and 11.525 million shares of our common stock, respectively.

Revenues increased 4.0% on a consolidated basis and increased 3.4% on a same facility basis for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The increase in consolidated revenues can be attributed to the combined impact of a 1.9% increase in revenue per equivalent admission and a 2.1% increase in equivalent admissions. The same facility revenues increase resulted from the combined impact of a 2.0% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 1.3% increase in same facility equivalent admissions.

During the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, consolidated admissions and same facility admissions increased 1.3% and 0.8%, respectively. Surgeries were flat on a consolidated basis and declined 0.9% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Emergency department visits increased 1.1% on a consolidated basis and increased 0.4% on a same facility basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the provision for doubtful accounts increased $311 million, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $74 million and $360 million, respectively, during the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. The sum of the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, as a percentage of the sum of revenues, provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, was 34.8% for the second quarter of 2017, compared to 32.5% for the second quarter of 2016. Same facility uninsured admissions increased 4.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Cash flows from operating activities increased $55 million from $1.349 billion for the second quarter of 2016 to $1.404 billion for the second quarter of 2017. The increase relates primarily to the net impact of net negative changes in working capital items of $241 million and $268 million of favorable changes in income taxes.

Results of Operations

Revenue/Volume Trends

Our revenues depend upon inpatient occupancy levels, the ancillary services and therapy programs ordered by physicians and provided to patients, the volume of outpatient procedures and the charge and negotiated payment rates for such services. Gross charges typically do not reflect what our facilities are actually paid. Our facilities have entered into agreements with third-party payers, including government programs and managed care health plans, under which the facilities are paid based upon the cost of providing services, predetermined rates per diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts from gross charges. We do not pursue collection of amounts

related to patients who meet our guidelines to qualify for charity care; therefore, they are not reported in revenues. We provide discounts to uninsured patients who do not qualify for Medicaid or charity care. After the discounts are applied, we are still unable to collect a significant portion of uninsured patients’ accounts, and we record provisions for doubtful accounts (based upon our historical collection experience) related to uninsured patients in the period the services are provided to record the net self-pay revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect.

Revenues increased 4.0% from $10.319 billion in the second quarter of 2016 to $10.733 billion in the second quarter of 2017. Our international revenues declined 17.4% from $324 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $269 million in the second quarter of 2017. Declines in admissions related to patients from certain Middle-Eastern countries seeking health care services in England, admissions related to private medical insurance patients and in the currency translation rates have contributed to the decline in international revenues.

Revenues are recorded during the period the health care services are provided, based upon the estimated amounts due from the patients and third-party payers. Third-party payers include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare and Medicaid programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies (including plans offered through the health insurance exchanges), and employers. Estimates of contractual allowances under managed care health plans are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. Revenues related to uninsured patients and uninsured copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage may have discounts applied (uninsured discounts and contractual discounts). Our revenues from our third-party payers, the uninsured and other payers for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are summarized in the following table (dollars in millions):

Consolidated and same facility revenue per equivalent admission increased 1.9% and 2.0%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated and same facility equivalent admissions increased 2.1% and 1.3%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgeries declined 0.2% and 1.2%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated inpatient surgeries increased 0.4% and same facility inpatient surgeries were flat in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 1.1% and 0.4%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016.

To quantify the total impact of and trends related to uninsured accounts, we believe it is beneficial to view the direct uninsured revenue deductions (charity care and uninsured discounts) and provision for doubtful accounts in combination, rather than each separately. At June 30, 2017, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented 99.3% of the $5.086 billion total patient due accounts receivable balance. The patient due accounts receivable balance represents the estimated uninsured portion of our accounts receivable. A summary of these adjustments to revenues amounts, related to uninsured accounts, for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 follows (dollars in millions):

At June 30, 2017, we had 84 hospitals in the states of Texas and Florida. During the second quarter of 2017, 55% of our admissions and 47% of our revenues were generated by these hospitals. Uninsured admissions in Texas and Florida represented 69% of our uninsured admissions during the second quarter of 2017.

We receive a significant portion of our revenues from government health programs, principally Medicare and Medicaid, which are highly regulated and subject to frequent and substantial changes. In 2011, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) approved a Medicaid waiver that allows Texas to continue receiving supplemental Medicaid reimbursement while expanding its Medicaid managed care program. Texas currently operates its Medicaid Waiver Program pursuant to this waiver, which CMS has agreed to extend through December 2017. We cannot predict whether the Texas Medicaid Waiver Program will be further extended, be revised or that revenues recognized from the program will not decline.

The Texas Medicaid Waiver Program includes two primary components: an indigent care component and a Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (“DSRIP”) component. Initiatives under the DSRIP program are designed to provide incentive payments to hospitals and other providers for their investments in delivery system reforms that increase access to health care, improve the quality of care and enhance the health of patients and families they serve. We provide indigent care services in several communities in the state of Texas, in affiliation with other hospitals. The state of Texas has been involved in efforts to increase the indigent care provided by private hospitals. As a result of additional indigent care being provided by private hospitals, public hospital

districts or counties in Texas have available funds that were previously devoted to indigent care. The public hospital districts or counties are under no contractual or legal obligation to provide such indigent care. The public hospital districts or counties have elected to transfer some portion of these available funds to the state’s Medicaid program. Such action is at the sole discretion of the public hospital districts or counties. It is anticipated that these contributions to the state will be matched with federal Medicaid funds. The state then may make supplemental payments to hospitals in the state for Medicaid services rendered. Hospitals receiving Medicaid supplemental payments may include those that are providing additional indigent care services. Our Texas Medicaid revenues included Medicaid supplemental payments of $95 million ($26 million DSRIP related and $69 million indigent care related) and $82 million ($25 million DSRIP related and $57 million indigent care related) during the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $201 million ($56 million DSRIP related and $145 million indigent care related) and $184 million ($53 million DSRIP related and $131 million indigent care related) during the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In addition, we receive supplemental payments in several other states. We are aware these supplemental payment programs are currently being reviewed by certain state agencies and CMS, and some states have made waiver requests to CMS to replace their existing supplemental payment programs. It is possible these reviews and waiver requests will result in the restructuring of such supplemental payment programs and could result in the payment programs being reduced or eliminated. Because deliberations about these programs are ongoing, we are unable to estimate the financial impact the program structure modifications, if any, may have on our results of operations.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results of Operations (continued)

 

Quarters Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

Net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc. totaled $657 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2017, compared to $658 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2016. Second quarter 2017 results include net gains on sales of facilities of $2 million. Second quarter 2016 results include legal claim costs of $10 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and net gains on sales of facilities of $6 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 375.338 million shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and 398.659 million shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. During 2016 and the first six months of 2017, we repurchased 36.325 million and 11.525 million shares of our common stock, respectively.

Revenues before provision for doubtful accounts increased 6.5% for the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $311 million, from $762 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $1.073 billion in the second quarter of 2017. The provision for doubtful accounts relates primarily to uninsured amounts due directly from patients, including copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $74 million and $360 million, respectively, during the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. The sum of the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, as a percentage of the sum of revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, was 34.8% for the second quarter of 2017, compared to 32.5% for the second quarter of 2016. At June 30, 2017, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented 99.3% of the $5.086 billion total patient due accounts receivable balance, including accounts, net of estimated contractual discounts, related to patients for which eligibility for Medicaid coverage or uninsured discounts was being evaluated.

Revenues increased 4.0% due to the combined impact of revenue per equivalent admission growth of 1.9% and a 2.1% increase in equivalent admissions for the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016. Same facility revenues increased 3.4% due to the combined impact of a 2.0% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 1.3% increase in same facility equivalent admissions for the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016.

Salaries and benefits, as a percentage of revenues, were 45.6% in the second quarter of 2017 and 45.5% in the second quarter of 2016. Salaries and benefits per equivalent admission increased 2.2% in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016. Same facility labor rate increases averaged 2.6% for the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016.

Supplies, as a percentage of revenues, were 16.7% in each of the second quarters of 2017 and 2016. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 2.3% in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 5.0% for medical devices, 1.0% for pharmacy supplies and 0.9% for general medical and surgical items in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016.

Other operating expenses, as a percentage of revenues, were 18.3% in the second quarter of 2017 and 18.0% in the second quarter of 2016. Other operating expenses is primarily comprised of contract services, professional fees, repairs and maintenance, rents and leases, utilities, insurance (including professional liability insurance) and nonincome taxes. Provisions for losses related to professional liability risks were $118 million and $111 million for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $13 million and $10 million in the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Results of Operations (continued)

Quarters Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (continued)

 

Depreciation and amortization increased $32 million, from $489 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $521 million in the second quarter of 2017. The increase in depreciation relates primarily to increased routine capital expenditures.

Interest expense was $411 million in the second quarter of 2017 and $427 million in the second quarter of 2016. Our average debt balance was $31.685 billion for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $31.117 billion for the second quarter of 2016. The average effective interest rate for our long-term debt declined to 5.2% from 5.5% for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

During the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, we recorded net gains on sales of facilities of $2 million and $6 million, respectively.

We recorded $10 million of legal claim costs during the second quarter of 2016 related to the Health Midwest litigation.

The effective tax rates were 35.8% and 34.1% for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate computations exclude net income attributable to noncontrolling interests as it relates to consolidated partnerships. Our provisions for income taxes for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016 included tax benefits of $9 million and $44 million, respectively, related to excess tax benefits from employee equity award settlements. Our provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2017 also included $10 million of reductions in interest expense (net of tax) related to taxing authority examinations. Excluding the effect of these adjustments, the effective tax rate for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016 would have been 37.8% and 38.5%, respectively.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $133 million for the second quarter of 2016 to $138 million for the second quarter of 2017. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests related primarily to our health care group purchasing organization.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

Net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc. totaled $1.316 billion, or $3.48 per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $1.352 billion, or $3.34 per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2016. The first six months of 2017 results include net gains on sales of facilities of $3 million. The first six months of 2016 results include legal claim costs of $22 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, and net gains on sales of facilities of $5 million. All “per diluted share” disclosures are based upon amounts net of the applicable income taxes. Shares used for diluted earnings per share were 377.647 million shares and 404.617 million shares for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. During 2016 and the first six months of 2017, we repurchased 36.325 million and 11.525 million shares of our common stock, respectively.

For the first six months of 2017, consolidated and same facility admissions increased 1.3% and 1.0%, respectively, compared to the first six months of 2016. Consolidated and same facility outpatient surgical volumes declined 0.2% and 0.9%, respectively, during the first six months of 2017, compared to the first six months of 2016. Consolidated and same facility inpatient surgeries increased 0.7% and 0.4%, respectively, in the first six months of 2017, compared to the first six months of 2016. Consolidated and same facility emergency department visits increased 1.3% and 0.8%, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Revenues before provision for doubtful accounts increased 4.8% for the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016. Provision for doubtful accounts increased $281 million from $1.552 billion in the

first six months of 2016 to $1.833 billion in the first six months of 2017. The provision for doubtful accounts relates primarily to uninsured amounts due directly from patients, including copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage. The self-pay revenue deductions for charity care and uninsured discounts increased $205 million and $744 million, respectively, during the first six months of 2017, compared to the first six months of 2016. The sum of the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, as a percentage of the sum of revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts, uninsured discounts and charity care, was 34.1% for the first six months of 2017, compared to 32.3% for the first six months of 2016. At June 30, 2017, our allowance for doubtful accounts represented approximately 99.3% of the $5.086 billion total patient due accounts receivable balance, including accounts, net of estimated contractual discounts, related to patients for which eligibility for Medicaid coverage or uninsured discounts was being evaluated.

Revenues increased 3.8% primarily due to the combined impact of revenue per equivalent admission growth of 1.8% and an increase of 1.9% in equivalent admissions for the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016. Same facility revenues increased 3.3% due to the combined impact of a 1.8% increase in same facility revenue per equivalent admission and a 1.5% increase in same facility equivalent admissions for the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016.

Salaries and benefits, as a percentage of revenues, were 45.9% in the first six months of 2017 and 45.6% in the first six months of 2016. Salaries and benefits per equivalent admission increased 2.3% in the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016. Same facility labor rate increases averaged 2.5% for the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016.

Supplies, as a percentage of revenues, were 16.8% in the first six months of 2017 and 16.7% in the first six months of 2016. Supply cost per equivalent admission increased 2.6% in the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016. Supply costs per equivalent admission increased 6.1% for medical devices and 1.5% for general medical and surgical items and declined 0.3% for pharmacy supplies in the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016.

Other operating expenses, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 18.2% in the first six months of 2017 from 18.1% in the first six months of 2016. Other operating expenses is primarily comprised of contract services, professional fees, repairs and maintenance, rents and leases, utilities, insurance (including professional liability insurance) and nonincome taxes. Provisions for losses related to professional liability risks were $237 million and $223 million for the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $23 million and $22 million in the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization increased $74 million, from $968 million in the first six months of 2016 to $1.042 billion in the first six months of 2017. The increase in depreciation relates primarily to increased routine capital expenditures.

Interest expense was $843 million for the first six months of 2016 and $830 million for the first six months of 2017. Our average debt balance was $31.539 billion for the first six months of 2017 compared to $30.863 billion for the first six months of 2016. The average effective interest rate for our long-term debt declined from 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to 5.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, we recorded net gains on sales of facilities of $3 million and $5 million, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results of Operations (continued)

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (continued)

 

We recorded $22 million of legal claim costs during the first six months of 2016 related to the Health Midwest litigation.

The effective tax rates were 33.2% and 31.6% for the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate computations exclude net income attributable to noncontrolling interests as it relates to consolidated partnerships. Our provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2017 and 2016 included tax benefits of $76 million and $118 million, respectively, related to excess tax benefits from employee equity award settlements. Our provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2017 also included $12 million of reductions in interest expense (net of tax) related to taxing authority examinations. Excluding the effect of these adjustments, the effective tax rate for the first six months of 2017 and 2016 would have been 37.7% and 37.6%, respectively.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $250 million for the first six months of 2016 to $256 million for the first six months of 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.684 billion in the first six months of 2017 compared to $2.748 billion in the first six months of 2016. The $64 million decline in cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016 related primarily to the net impact of net negative changes in working capital items of $305 million and $200 million of favorable changes in income taxes. The combined interest payments and net tax payments in the first six months of 2017 and 2016 were $1.221 billion and $1.325 billion, respectively. Working capital totaled $3.566 billion at June 30, 2017 and $3.252 billion at December 31, 2016.

Cash used in investing activities was $1.591 billion in the first six months of 2017 compared to $1.555 billion in the first six months of 2016. Acquisitions of hospitals and health care entities declined from $430 million in the first six months of 2016 to $295 million in the first six months of 2017. Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures were $1.304 billion in the first six months of 2017 and $1.172 billion in the first six months of 2016. Capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, are expected to approximate $2.9 billion in 2017. At June 30, 2017, there were projects under construction which had estimated additional costs to complete and equip over the next five years of approximately $3.3 billion. We expect to finance capital expenditures with internally generated and borrowed funds.

Cash used in financing activities totaled $1.034 billion in the first six months of 2017 compared to $1.243 billion in the first six months of 2016. During the first six months of 2017, net cash flows used in financing activities included a net increase of $247 million in our indebtedness, repurchases of common stock of $966 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $248 million and payments of debt issuance costs of $25 million. During the first six months of 2016, net cash flows used in financing activities included a net increase of $935 million in our indebtedness, repurchases of common stock of $1.858 billion, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $205 million and payments of debt issuance costs of $24 million.

We are a highly leveraged company with significant debt service requirements. Our debt totaled $31.661 billion at June 30, 2017. Our interest expense was $830 million for the first six months of 2017 and $843 million for the first six months of 2016.

In addition to cash flows from operations, available sources of capital include amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities ($3.798 billion and $2.567 billion available as of June 30, 2017 and July 31, 2017, respectively) and anticipated access to public and private debt markets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

 

During June 2017, we issued $1.500 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.500% senior secured notes due 2047. We will use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include funding all or a portion of the purchase price of certain previously announced hospital acquisitions, and the redemption, during the third quarter of 2017, of all $500 million aggregate principal amount of our existing 8.000% senior notes maturing in October 2018.

During June 2017, we amended our senior secured revolving credit facilities by (i) increasing the commitments under the senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility to $3.750 billion, (ii) extending the maturity date of the revolving credit commitments to June 28, 2022, (iii) amending the incremental facility provisions to permit the incurrence of additional incremental credit facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion and (iv) providing that the commitment fee for unutilized commitments under the senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility shall be 0.250% per annum.

During August 2016, we issued $1.200 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.500% senior secured notes due 2027. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes and to retire a portion of one of our senior secured term loans. We also entered into a joinder agreement to retire the remaining portion of this senior secured term loan using proceeds from a new $1.200 billion senior secured term loan facility maturing in February 2024.

During March 2016, we issued $1.500 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior secured notes due 2026. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes and to retire a portion of one of our senior secured term loans. We also entered into a joinder agreement to retire the remaining portion of this senior secured term loan using proceeds from a new $1.500 billion senior secured term loan facility maturing in March 2023.

Investments of our professional liability insurance subsidiaries, to maintain statutory equity and pay claims, totaled $401 million and $385 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. An insurance subsidiary maintained net reserves for professional liability risks of $210 million and $215 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Our facilities are insured by a 100% owned insurance subsidiary for losses up to $50 million per occurrence; however, this coverage is subject to a $15 million per occurrence self-insured retention. Net reserves for the self-insured professional liability risks retained were $1.333 billion and $1.279 billion at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Claims payments, net of reinsurance recoveries, during the next 12 months are expected to approximate $415 million. We estimate that approximately $366 million of the expected net claim payments during the next 12 months will relate to claims subject to the self-insured retention.

Management believes that cash flows from operations, amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities and our anticipated access to public and private debt markets will be sufficient to meet expected liquidity needs during the next 12 months.

Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in market values of securities. The investments in debt and equity securities of our 100% owned insurance subsidiaries were $398 million and $3 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017. These investments are carried at fair value, with changes in unrealized gains and losses being recorded as adjustments to other comprehensive income. At June 30, 2017, we had a net unrealized gain of $16 million on the insurance subsidiaries’ investment securities.

Market Risk (continued)

 

We are exposed to market risk related to market illiquidity. Investments in debt and equity securities of our 100% owned insurance subsidiaries could be impaired by the inability to access the capital markets. Should the 100% owned insurance subsidiaries require significant amounts of cash in excess of normal cash requirements to pay claims and other expenses on short notice, we may have difficulty selling these investments in a timely manner or be forced to sell them at a price less than what we might otherwise have been able to in a normal market environment. We may be required to recognize other-than-temporary impairments on our investment securities in future periods should issuers default on interest payments or should the fair market valuations of the securities deteriorate due to ratings downgrades or other issue-specific factors.

We are also exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, and we periodically enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to these fluctuations. Our interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties, based on common notional principal amounts and maturity dates. The notional amounts of the swap agreements represent balances used to calculate the exchange of cash flows and are not our assets or liabilities. Our credit risk related to these agreements is considered low because the swap agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions. The interest payments under these agreements are settled on a net basis. These derivatives have been recognized in the financial statements at their respective fair values. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives, which are designated as cash flow hedges, are included in other comprehensive income, and changes in the fair value of derivatives which have not been designated as hedges are recorded in operations.

With respect to our interest-bearing liabilities, approximately $2.700 billion of long-term debt at June 30, 2017 was subject to variable rates of interest, while the remaining balance in long-term debt of $28.961 billion at June 30, 2017 was subject to fixed rates of interest. Both the general level of interest rates and, for the senior secured credit facilities, our leverage affect our variable interest rates. Our variable debt is comprised primarily of amounts outstanding under the senior secured credit facilities. Borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (2) the prime rate of Bank of America or (b) a LIBOR rate for the currency of such borrowing for the relevant interest period. The applicable margin for borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities may fluctuate according to a leverage ratio. The average effective interest rate for our long-term debt declined from 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to 5.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The estimated fair value of our total long-term debt was $33.802 billion at June 30, 2017. The estimates of fair value are based upon the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues of long-term debt with the same maturities. Based on a hypothetical 1% increase in interest rates, the potential annualized reduction to future pretax earnings would be approximately $27 million. To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in interest rates, we generally target a portion of our debt portfolio to be maintained at fixed rates.

We are exposed to currency translation risk related to our foreign operations. Our international operations represented 2.5% of our consolidated revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017. The United Kingdom’s vote to exit the European Union in June 2016 contributed to a 16.8% decline in the Great British pound (GBP) to US dollar (USD) translation ratio during 2016. However, the GBP/USD translation ratio has stabilized (2.5% increase) during the first six months of 2017. We currently do not consider the market risk related to GBP/USD translation to be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Tax Examinations

We are subject to examination by federal, state and foreign taxing authorities. Management believes HCA Healthcare, Inc. and its predecessors, subsidiaries and affiliates properly reported taxable income and paid taxes in accordance with applicable laws and agreements established with IRS, state and foreign taxing authorities and final resolution of any disputes will not have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, if payments due upon final resolution of any issues exceed our recorded estimates, such resolutions could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We operate in a highly regulated and litigious industry. As a result, various lawsuits, claims and legal and regulatory proceedings have been and can be expected to be instituted or asserted against us. We are also subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims for personal injuries or wrongful restriction of, or interference with, physicians’ staff privileges. In certain of these actions the claimants may seek punitive damages against us which may not be covered by insurance. We are also subject to claims by various taxing authorities for additional taxes and related interest and penalties. The resolution of any such lawsuits, claims or legal and regulatory proceedings could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Health care companies are subject to numerous investigations by various governmental agencies. Further, under the federal False Claims Act, private parties have the right to bring qui tam, or “whistleblower,” suits against companies that submit false claims for payments to, or improperly retain overpayments from, the government. Some states have adopted similar state whistleblower and false claims provisions. Certain of our individual facilities have received, and from time to time, other facilities may receive, government inquiries from, and may be subject to investigation by, federal and state agencies. Depending on whether the underlying conduct in these or future inquiries or investigations could be considered systemic, their resolution could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.
