Encompass Health reports results for first quarter 2018
and updates full-year 2018 guidance
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Encompass Health Corporation (NYSE: EHC), a national leader in post-acute care, 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 first quarter ended March 31, 2018.
“We're off to a good start in 2018 as both segments generated strong volume, revenue, and earnings growth. Based on the strength of these results, we made upward adjustments to our full-year 2018 guidance ranges,” said Mark Tarr, President and Chief Executive Officer of Encompass Health. “We also made solid progress on our strategic initiatives during the first quarter including portfolio growth in both segments, implementation of our rebranding and name change, increasing clinical collaboration between our two segments, and the development of enhanced patient navigation and post-acute network management tools through the Post-Acute Innovation Center. Initiatives such as these serve to enhance our position as the post-acute provider of choice with healthcare systems, physicians, patients, and payors.”
Consolidated results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2018 |  | Q1 2017 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
| (In Millions, Except per Share Data)
Net operating revenues | $ | 1,046.0 |  |  | $ | 957.1 |  |  | $ | 88.9 |  |  | 9.3 | %
Income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per diluted share | 0.85 |  |  | 0.70 |  |  | 0.15 |  |  | 21.4 | %
Adjusted earnings per share | 0.93 |  |  | 0.70 |  |  | 0.23 |  |  | 32.9 | %
Cash flows provided by operating activities | 216.3 |  |  | 180.8 |  |  | 35.5 |  |  | 19.6 | %
Adjusted EBITDA | 223.3 |  |  | 200.8 |  |  | 22.5 |  |  | 11.2 | %
Adjusted free cash flow | 170.2 |  |  | 147.5 |  |  | 22.7 |  |  | 15.4 | %

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.
The increase in income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per share and adjusted earnings per share resulted primarily from increased revenue and a lower effective tax rate resulting from income tax reform.

Inpatient rehabilitation segment results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2018 |  | Q1 2017 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
Net operating revenues: | (In Millions)
Inpatient | $ | 817.1 |  |  | $ | 752.7 |  |  | $ | 64.4 |  |  | 8.6 | %
Outpatient and other | 23.2 |  |  | 25.1 |  |  | (1.9 | ) |  | (7.6 | )%
Total segment revenue | $ | 840.3 |  |  | $ | 777.8 |  |  | $ | 62.5 |  |  | 8.0 | %
| (Actual Amounts)
Discharges | 45,108 |  |  | 42,259 |  |  | 2,849 |  |  | 6.7 | %
Same-store discharge growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | 4.8 | %
Net patient revenue per discharge | $ | 18,114 |  |  | $ | 17,812 |  |  | $ | 302 |  |  | 1.7 | %
| (In Millions)
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 223.8 |  |  | $ | 205.4 |  |  | $ | 18.4 |  |  | 9.0 | %

• | Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in net patient revenue per discharge. A heavy incidence of influenza at acute care hospitals and the timing of discharges around Easter and Passover contributed to discharge growth. Discharge growth from new stores resulted from the Company's joint ventures in Gulfport, Mississippi (April 2017), Westerville, Ohio (April 2017), and Jackson, Tennessee (July 2017), as well as a wholly owned hospital in Pearland, Texas (October 2017). Growth in net patient revenue per discharge primarily resulted from an increase in Medicare reimbursement rates and a year-over-year reduction in bad debt, which is now a component of revenue (see the “Other Information” section of this release).

The decrease in outpatient and other revenues primarily was due to the continued closures of hospital-based outpatient programs.

• | Adjusted EBITDA - The increase in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth. Expense ratios in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarter of 2017 benefited from a year-over-year reduction in bad debt, which is now a component of revenue (see the “Other Information” section of this release). Salaries and benefits as a percent of net operating revenues benefited from labor management and higher volumes. Other operating expenses as a percent of net operating revenues increased primarily due to increases in contract services.

Home health and hospice segment results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2018 |  | Q1 2017 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
Net operating revenues: | (In Millions)
Home health | $ | 185.2 |  |  | $ | 163.7 |  |  | $ | 21.5 |  |  | 13.1 | %
Hospice and other | 20.5 |  |  | 15.6 |  |  | 4.9 |  |  | 31.4 | %
Total segment revenue | $ | 205.7 |  |  | $ | 179.3 |  |  | $ | 26.4 |  |  | 14.7 | %
Home Health Metrics
(Actual Amounts)
Admissions | 33,855 |  |  | 30,810 |  |  | 3,045 |  |  | 9.9 | %
Same-store admissions growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | 7.4 | %
Episodes | 56,658 |  |  | 49,260 |  |  | 7,398 |  |  | 15.0 | %
Same-store episode growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | 12.7 | %
Revenue per episode | $ | 2,934 |  |  | $ | 2,978 |  |  | $ | (44 | ) |  | (1.5 | )%
| (In Millions)
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 33.5 |  |  | $ | 23.9 |  |  | $ | 9.6 |  |  | 40.2 | %

• | Revenue - Revenue growth was driven by volume growth. Revenue per episode was negatively impacted by an approximate $4 million reserve for a Zone Program Integrity Contractor, or ZPIC, audit. Excluding this reserve, revenue per episode would have increased by 0.7% as changes in patient mix offset the impact of Medicare reimbursement rate cuts.

Hospice and other revenue increased primarily due to same-store volume growth and acquisitions in 2017.

• | Adjusted EBITDA - Growth in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth and improvements in caregiver productivity and efficiency.

Corporate general and administrative expenses

| Q1 2018 |  | % of Consolidated Revenue |  | Q1 2017 |  | % of Consolidated Revenue
| (In Millions)
General and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation | $ | 34.0 |  |  | 3.3% |  | $ | 28.5 |  |  | 3.0%

• | General and administrative expenses increased as a percent of consolidated revenue due to expenses associated with the Company's rebranding and name change. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company invested $3.6 million in its rebranding and name change, all of which was included in general and administrative expenses. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company invested $0.5 million in its rebranding and name change.

Other information
The information in this press release is summarized and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 (the “March 2018 Form 10-Q”), when filed, as well as the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 26, 2018 (the “Q1 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 April 27, 2018 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 became a

|  | 4

component of net operating revenues. This had the effect of reducing net operating revenues but was neutral to 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 Q1 Earnings Form 8-K. Readers are encouraged to review the “Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in the Q1 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 2018 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 $147 million to $157 million

• | Amortization of debt-related items - approximately $7 million

The Q1 Earnings Form 8-K and, when filed, the March 2018 Form 10-Q can be found on the Company's website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com and the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
