BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Encompass Health Corporation (NYSE: EHC), a national leader in integrated healthcare services, offering facility-based and home-based patient care through its network of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, home health agencies and hospice agencies, today reported its results of operations for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018.
"We ended 2018 with another quarter of strong operating and financial results," said Mark Tarr, President and Chief Executive Officer of Encompass Health. "Through the course of 2018, we met or exceeded our objectives for growth and quality, and we made substantial gains on initiatives such as clinical collaboration, enhanced data analytics, and the development of post-acute solutions. The investments we are making in our business position us well to meet the growing demand for the services we provide."

Adjusted free cash flow | 538.1 | 468.7 | 69.4 | 14.8 | % | |||||||||
Revenue growth was driven by volume and pricing growth in the inpatient rehabilitation segment and volume growth in the home health and hospice segment. See the "Other Information" section of this release for discussion of the Company's adoption of a new accounting standard for revenue recognition in 2018.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per diluted share decreased due to the accrual of loss contingencies of $52 million, or $0.52 per share, included in the line item government, class action, and related settlements, $48 million, or $0.48 per share, of which relates to on-going discussions with the United States Department of Justice, as discussed below.
The increase in adjusted earnings per share resulted primarily from increased revenue and a lower effective tax rate resulting from income tax reform.
Growth in cash flows provided by operating activities and adjusted free cash flow resulted primarily from revenue growth and favorable working capital changes.
See attached supplemental information for calculations of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to their most comparable GAAP measure.
"The strength and consistency of our free cash flow generation was again evident in the fourth quarter," said Doug Coltharp, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Encompass Health. "For 2018, adjusted free cash flow of approximately $538 million was sufficient to fund capacity expansions in both business segments and shareholder distributions, while still reducing funded debt."

Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 211.7 | $ | 207.1 | $ | 4.6 | 2.2 | % | ||||||
- Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in net patient revenue per discharge. Same-store discharge growth was negatively impacted by approximately 50 basis points due to the ongoing effects of Hurricane Michael on operations in Panama City, Florida. Discharge growth from new stores resulted from the Company's joint ventures in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina (September 2018) and Winston-Salem, North Carolina (October 2018), as well as wholly owned hospitals in Pearland, Texas (October 2017), Shelby County, Alabama (April 2018), and Bluffton, South Carolina (June 2018). Growth in net patient revenue per discharge primarily resulted from an increase in reimbursement rates from all payors and improvements in discharge destination.
Outpatient and other revenue decreased due primarily to continued closures of hospital-based outpatient programs.
Revenue reserves (formerly bad debt expense) as a percent of revenue increased 50 basis points to 1.5% in the fourth quarter of 2018 primarily due to new pre-payment claims denials (net of recoveries) and post-payment reserves for new Medicare Advantage contractual claims reviews with one managed care organization.
- Adjusted EBITDA - The increase in Adjusted EBITDA for the inpatient rehabilitation segment resulted primarily from revenue growth. Salaries and benefits as a percent of revenue increased as labor management and productivity gains were offset by benefit cost increases and the ramping up of new stores. Other operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2018 included repairs and maintenance costs at the Company's hospital in Panama City, Florida that was impacted by Hurricane Michael.

- Revenue - Revenue growth was driven by volume growth, including the impact of the Camellia Healthcare acquisition which closed on May 1, 2018. Same-store admission growth was negatively impacted by approximately 50 basis points due to the ongoing effects of Hurricane Michael on operations in Panama City, Florida. Revenue per episode decreased 0.1% as the impact of Medicare reimbursement rate cuts was partially offset by changes in patient mix.
Hospice revenue increased primarily due to acquisitions and same-store admission growth of 8.6%.
- Adjusted EBITDA - Growth in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth, staffing productivity gains and operating leverage of support and overhead costs.

Reserve for potential government settlement
Based on recent discussions with DOJ, the Company established a reserve of $48 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 for the potential settlement of the investigation initially disclosed in March 2013. As previously disclosed, since 2013, the Company has been cooperating with an investigation of alleged improper or fraudulent Medicare and Medicaid claims. The investigation, under the direction of DOJ, has been pending six years. The Company is aware of no evidence of fraud, falsity or wrongdoing. However, based on recent discussions with DOJ and having considered the burdens and distractions associated with continuing the investigation and the likely costs of future litigation, the Company now estimates a settlement value of $48 million. Discussions are ongoing, and until they are concluded, there can be no certainty about the nature, timing or likelihood of a settlement. No tax benefit related to the loss contingency reserve has been recorded as it is not possible to determine tax deductibility.
2019 guidance
In a current report on Form 8-K dated January 7, 2019, the Company provided its preliminary guidance ranges for 2019. The Company is confirming the following guidance ranges.
Full-year 2019 guidance ranges | |
(in millions, except per share data) | |
Net operating revenues | $4,500 to $4,600 |
Adjusted EBITDA | $925 to $945 |
Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations | $3.71 to $3.85 |
For additional considerations regarding the Company's 2019 guidance ranges, see the supplemental information posted on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com. See also the "Other Information" section below for an explanation of why the Company does not provide guidance for comparable GAAP measures for Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share.

Other information
The information in this press release is summarized and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K"), when filed, as well as the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 7, 2019 (the "Q4 Earnings Form 8-K"), to which this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1. In addition, the Company will post supplemental information today on its website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com for reference during its February 8, 2019 earnings call.
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted a new accounting standard (ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers) which clarifies the standards for recognizing revenue. The impact to the Company's financial reporting was that amounts previously presented as provision for doubtful accounts became a component of net operating revenues. This had the effect of reducing net operating revenues but had no effect on Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share. The Company retrospectively adopted the new standard during the first quarter of 2018, which means previously reported quarterly and full-year results for 2017 have been updated to reflect the requirements of the new standard. For additional information, see the supplemental information posted on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com.
The financial data contained in the press release and supplemental information include non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company's adjusted earnings per share, leverage ratio, Adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted free cash flow. Reconciliations to their most comparable GAAP measure, except with regard to non-GAAP guidance, are included below or in the Q4 Earnings Form 8-K. Readers are encouraged to review the "Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included in the Q4 Earnings Form 8-K which provides further explanation and disclosure regarding the Company's use of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Excluding net operating revenues, the Company does not provide guidance on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict, with reasonable certainty, the future impact of items that are deemed to be outside the control of the Company or otherwise non-indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Such items include government, class action, and related settlements; professional fees—accounting, tax, and legal; mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights; gains or losses related to hedging instruments; loss on early extinguishment of debt; adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims); items related to corporate and facility restructurings; and certain other items the Company believes to be non-indicative of its ongoing operations. These items cannot be reasonably predicted and will depend on several factors, including industry and market conditions, and could be material to the Company's results computed in accordance with GAAP.
However, the following reasonably estimable GAAP measures for 2019 would be included in a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA if the other reconciling GAAP measures could be reasonably predicted:
- Interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees - estimate of $150 million to $160 million
- Amortization of debt-related items - approximately $4 million
The Q4 Earnings Form 8-K and, when filed, the 2018 Form 10-K can be found on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com and the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

(1) | The application of the lower income tax rate that resulted from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to the Company's net deferred tax assets resulted in a net $1.2 million increase in tax expense in Q4 2017. Application of the new tax rate to the Company's joint venture entities' deferred tax liabilities resulted in a net reduction in tax expense in Q4 2017. The Company's joint venture partners' share of this net tax benefit was $4.6 million, which resulted in an increase in noncontrolling interest expense in Q4 2017. |
