Encompass Health reports results for first quarter 2019
and reiterates full-year 2019 guidance
Full-year 2019 guidance now includes the impact of the proposed rule for inpatient rehabilitation hospitals on the fourth quarter of 2019
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Encompass Health Corp. (NYSE: EHC), a national leader in integrated healthcare, 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, 2019.
“The strength of our business model was demonstrated again in the first quarter of 2019 as we made continued progress on our operational and strategic initiatives and generated strong financial results,” said President and Chief Executive Officer of Encompass Health Mark Tarr.
Consolidated results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2019 |  | Q1 2018 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
| (In Millions, Except per Share Data)
Net operating revenues | $ | 1,124.0 |  |  | $ | 1,046.0 |  |  | $ | 78.0 |  |  | 7.5 | %
Income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per diluted share | 1.04 |  |  | 0.85 |  |  | 0.19 |  |  | 22.4 | %
Adjusted earnings per share | 1.04 |  |  | 0.93 |  |  | 0.11 |  |  | 11.8 | %
Cash flows provided by operating activities | 159.9 |  |  | 216.3 |  |  | (56.4 | ) |  | (26.1 | )%
Adjusted EBITDA | 242.9 |  |  | 223.3 |  |  | 19.6 |  |  | 8.8 | %
Adjusted free cash flow | 127.8 |  |  | 170.2 |  |  | (42.4 | ) |  | (24.9 | )%

Revenue growth was driven by volume and pricing growth in both of the Company's operating segments.
The increase in income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per diluted share and adjusted earnings per share resulted primarily from increased revenue.
The decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities and adjusted free cash flow resulted primarily from increased working capital.

Inpatient rehabilitation segment results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2019 |  | Q1 2018 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
Net operating revenues: | (In Millions)
Inpatient | $ | 847.6 |  |  | $ | 817.1 |  |  | $ | 30.5 |  |  | 3.7 | %
Outpatient and other | 22.5 |  |  | 23.2 |  |  | (0.7 | ) |  | (3.0 | )%
Total segment revenue | $ | 870.1 |  |  | $ | 840.3 |  |  | $ | 29.8 |  |  | 3.5 | %
| (Actual Amounts)
Discharges | 45,609 |  |  | 45,108 |  |  | 501 |  |  | 1.1 | %
Same-store discharge growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | (0.2 | )%
Net patient revenue per discharge | $ | 18,584 |  |  | $ | 18,114 |  |  | $ | 470 |  |  | 2.6 | %
| (In Millions)
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 230.0 |  |  | $ | 223.8 |  |  | $ | 6.2 |  |  | 2.8 | %

• | Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in net patient revenue per discharge. 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 Shelby County, Alabama (April 2018) and Bluffton, South Carolina (June 2018). Same-store discharge growth in the first quarter of 2019 was negatively impacted by approximately 20 basis points due to the ongoing effects of Hurricane Michael on operations in Panama City, Florida. Same-store discharge growth was 4.8% in the first quarter of 2018, with a severe influenza season (approximately 100 to 200 basis points) and the timing of discharges around Easter and Passover (approximately 50 basis points) contributing to that growth. Growth in net patient revenue per discharge primarily resulted from an increase in reimbursement rates from all payors and improvements in discharge destination.

Revenue reserves as a percent of revenue increased 30 basis points to 1.4%. Revenue reserves as a percent of revenue were lower in the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to the recoupment of previously denied claims.

• | Adjusted EBITDA - The increase in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth. The increase in salaries and benefits as a percent of revenue was lower than the expected range.

Home health and hospice segment results

|  |  |  |  | Growth
| Q1 2019 |  | Q1 2018 |  | Dollars |  | Percent
Net operating revenues: | (In Millions)
Home health | $ | 219.5 |  |  | $ | 185.3 |  |  | $ | 34.2 |  |  | 18.5 | %
Hospice | 34.4 |  |  | 20.4 |  |  | 14.0 |  |  | 68.6 | %
Total segment revenue | $ | 253.9 |  |  | $ | 205.7 |  |  | $ | 48.2 |  |  | 23.4 | %
Home Health Metrics
(Actual Amounts)
Admissions | 37,944 |  |  | 33,855 |  |  | 4,089 |  |  | 12.1 | %
Same-store admissions growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | 6.4 | %
Episodes | 63,626 |  |  | 56,658 |  |  | 6,968 |  |  | 12.3 | %
Same-store episode growth |  |  |  |  |  |  | 5.4 | %
Revenue per episode | $ | 3,057 |  |  | $ | 2,934 |  |  | $ | 123 |  |  | 4.2 | %
| (In Millions)
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 46.3 |  |  | $ | 33.5 |  |  | $ | 12.8 |  |  | 38.2 | %

• | Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in revenue per episode. Volume growth included the impact of the Camellia Healthcare acquisition which closed on May 1, 2018. The increase in revenue per episode primarily resulted from a Medicare reimbursement rate increase, receipt of an approximate $1 million Bundled Payments for Care Improvement reconciliation payment in the first quarter of 2019, and changes in patient mix. Revenue per episode in the first quarter of 2018 was negatively impacted by an approximate $4 million reserve for a Zone Program Integrity Contractor audit.

Hospice revenue increased primarily due to acquisitions and same-store admissions growth of 13.7%.

• | Adjusted EBITDA - Growth in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue growth and improvements in caregiver optimization and productivity in home health and increased scale and efficiencies in hospice.

General and administrative expenses

| Q1 2019 |  | % of Consolidated Revenue |  | Q1 2018 |  | % of Consolidated Revenue
| (In Millions)
General and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation | $ | 33.4 |  |  | 3.0% |  | $ | 34.0 |  |  | 3.3%

• | General and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of consolidated revenue primarily due to expenses associated with the Company's rebranding and name change in Q1 2018 and operating leverage resulting from revenue growth. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company invested $0.8 million in its rebranding and name change, all of which was included in general and administrative expenses. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company invested $3.6 million in its rebranding and name change.

Repurchases of common stock
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 219,708 shares of its common stock for approximately $13 million. As of March 31,2019, the Company had approximately $237 million remaining under its existing stock repurchase authorization.
“Our leverage ratio at the end of the first quarter remained at 2.8x,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Encompass Health Doug Coltharp. “The strength of our balance sheet and cash flow generation position us with substantial flexibility to deploy capital.”
2019 guidance
On April 17, 2019, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released its notice of proposed rule making for fiscal year 2020 under the inpatient rehabilitation facility prospective payment system (the “2020 Proposed IRF Rule”). Based on its analysis of the adjustments included in the proposed rule and other factors, including the acuity of the Company's patients over the three-month period prior to the release of the proposed rule, the Company currently estimates its Medicare payment rates for its inpatient rehabilitation segment will be flat to down 0.25% in fiscal year 2020 (effective October 1, 2019).
Based on its results for the first quarter of 2019 and its current expectations for the remainder of 2019, including the impact of the 2020 Proposed IRF Rule discussed above on the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company is reiterating its full-year guidance for 2019.

| Full-Year 2019 Guidance
| (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 attributable to Encompass Health | $3.71 to $3.85

This guidance does not include the Company's pending acquisition of Alacare Home Health and Hospice which is expected to close in June 2019.

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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 (the “March 2019 Form 10‑Q”), when filed, as well as the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 25, 2019 (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 26, 2019 earnings call.
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, in the supplemental information, 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 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 Q1 Earnings Form 8-K and, when filed, the March 2019 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.
