PR Newswire

FRISCO, Texas, Nov. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Addus HomeCare Corporation (NASDAQ: ADUS), a provider of home care services, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Net service revenues increased 14.8% for the third quarter to $194.0 million from $169.0 million for the third quarter of 2019. Net income increased 85.6% to $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2020 from $4.9 million for the third quarter last year, while net income from continuing operations per diluted share was $0.57 compared with $0.39 for the same period a year ago. Adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share was $0.76 for the third quarter of 2020 compared with $0.75 for the third quarter of 2019.

Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2020 excludes COVID-19 adjustment of $0.02, M&A expenses of $0.02, restructure and other costs of $0.08, which consisted primarily of the impairment of right of use assets from the Company's former corporate office space, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.07. Adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share for the third quarter of 2019 excludes interest income from the State of Illinois of $0.02, the impact of a retroactive Illinois rate increase of $0.12, M&A expenses of $0.10, restructure and other costs of $0.08, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.08. Adjusted EBITDA increased 12.2% to $19.5 million for the third quarter of 2020 from $17.4 million for the third quarter of 2019. (See page 8 for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP and GAAP financial measures in this news release.)

For the first nine months of 2020, net service revenues increased 24.6% to $568.8 million from $456.4 million for the first nine months of 2019. Net income increased 70.2% to $24.7 million for the first nine months of 2020 from $14.5 million for the first nine months of last year, while net income from continuing operations per diluted share increased to $1.55 from $1.10. Adjusted net income from continuing operations per diluted share grew 28.4% to $2.26 for the first nine months of 2020 from $1.76 for the same period in 2019.

Commenting on the results, Dirk Allison, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased with our consistent profitable growth as reflected in our third quarter financial and operating performance. This is in spite of the effects of the ongoing pandemic, as well as the short-term negative impact of the July 1, 2020, minimum wage increase in our Chicago market, which is scheduled to be funded by a reimbursement rate increase on January 1, 2021. We experienced improving volumes during the third quarter as some COVID–19 restrictions were lifted, although our census has not fully returned to pre-pandemic levels. With the number of COVID-19 cases currently spiking across the country, we may see an ongoing impact to our volumes, but we believe Addus is well positioned to meet expected demand as conditions evolve and more customers return to us for safe and cost-effective care. Across our operations and service areas, we are proud of the dedicated efforts of our employees and caregivers and all healthcare workers who have continued to provide the essential home care services that are especially vital as the COVID-19 pandemic persists." 

At September 30, 2020, the Company had cash of $170.3 million and bank debt of $61.7 million, with availability under its revolving credit facility of $219.0 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $22.4 million for the third quarter of 2020.

Mr. Allison added, "Acquisitions have continued to be an important part of our growth strategy, and we have the capital structure to allow us to pursue acquisition opportunities as they occur. We have continued to identify new growth opportunities in all segments of our business and on November 1, 2020, we completed the acquisition of County HomeMakers, Inc., a personal care operator in Pennsylvania, with 800 employees in 22 locations serving over 1,000 clients. County HomeMakers had annual revenues of $14.8 million in 2019, and we expect this acquisition will be immediately accretive to our 2020 financial results. Importantly, this acquisition aligns with our strategy to expand coverage in existing states where we already have a presence, especially markets like Pennsylvania with managed Medicaid. We welcome the professional team associated with County HomeMakers to the Addus family, and we look forward to a smooth operational integration.

"Looking ahead, while we continue to face the ongoing challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are mindful of our critical role in providing home care services that allow individuals to avoid the risks found in settings outside of their homes. Our top priority is to protect the health and safety of the patients and customers we serve and our caregivers and other employees, and we remain steadfast in our mission. Our results to date in 2020 reflect our ability to execute our strategy through a very challenging period, and we remain confident Addus will have continued success as a leading provider of comprehensive home care services. We look forward to the opportunities ahead to provide quality care to more individuals while delivering value to our shareholders," Mr. Allison concluded.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The information provided in this release includes adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net service revenues, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income before the net-of-tax amounts of interest income from the State of Illinois, COVID-19 adjustments for temporary rate increases and expenses, M&A expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure charges, severance and other costs and loss on the sale of assets associated with Hospice Partners of Kansas. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, interest income, other non-operating income, COVID-19 adjustments for temporary rate increases and expenses, taxes, depreciation, amortization, interest income from the State of Illinois, M&A expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure charges, severance and other costs and loss on the sale of assets associated with Hospice Partners of Kansas. The Company defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as earnings per share adjusted for interest income from the State of Illinois, COVID–19 expenses, M&A expenses, stock compensation expense and restructure expense, severance and other costs and loss on the sale of assets associated with Hospice Partners of Kansas.  The Company has provided, in the financial statement tables included in this press release, a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income, a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income and a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to earnings per share, in each case, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share are 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. With respect to COVID–19 expenses, the Company views these expenses as unrelated to the Company's long-term performance, since they are directly related to the sudden onset COVID-19 pandemic. With respect to COVID-19 temporary rate increases, the Company similarly views these as unrelated to the Company's long-term performance and has adjusted for those increases, net of the amount required to be passed through to caregivers as a condition of the increase.
