Encompass Health reports results for first quarter 2020
and provides update on response to COVID-19 pandemic
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, 2020. The Company also provided an update on the measures it has implemented to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Through February, our operating performance was strong in both business segments,” said President and Chief Executive Officer of Encompass Health Mark Tarr. “Beginning in March, we experienced lower volumes and higher operating expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic. While we expect these lower volumes to continue in the near term, we view them as temporary and remain confident in the intermediate and long-term growth prospects for our Company based on the increasing demands for the services we provide to an aging population.”

Revenue growth was driven by volume and pricing growth in the inpatient rehabilitation segment and volume growth in the home health and hospice segment.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health per diluted share for the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019 reflected a decrease in earnings, as discussed in the segment results sections that follow.

 
 
1
Exhibit 99.1

Cash flows provided by operating activities and adjusted free cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2020 decreased primarily due to a decrease in earnings and an increase in working capital. The increase in working capital included higher accounts receivable in the Company's home health and hospice segment primarily due to the transition to the Patient Driven Groupings Model (“PDGM”), including a reduction in the Request for Anticipated Payment program for home health agencies. Cash flows provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2020 included payment of $101 million for stock appreciation rights exercised during the period.

•
Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth and an increase in net patient revenue per discharge. New-store discharge growth resulted from joint ventures in Lubbock, Texas (May 2019) and Boise, Idaho (July 2019), and wholly owned hospitals in Katy, Texas (September 2019) and Murrieta, California (February 2020). New-store growth also resulted from a joint venture hospital in Yuma, Arizona changing from the equity method of accounting to a consolidated entity effective July 1, 2019. Growth in net patient revenue per discharge primarily resulted from an increase in reimbursement rates offset by prior period cost report adjustments. Revenue reserves related to bad debt as a percent of revenue decreased 20 basis points to 1.2% primarily due to the continued favorable resolution of medical claims reviews.
The decrease in outpatient revenue resulted from the suspension of hospital-based outpatient services in mid-March 2020 and the closure of certain hospital-based outpatient programs in 2019.
•
Adjusted EBITDA - The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from higher salaries and benefits expense, as well as the increased purchase and use of medical supplies in March 2020 due to COVID-19. Salaries and benefits increased as a percent of revenue primarily due to the ramp up of new stores and overtime paid to employees as a result of increased volumes early in the first quarter. In addition, employee productivity decreased in March 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic related items. Other income within the segment decreased $4.4 million primarily due to the year-over-year change in the mark-to-market adjustment on the Company's non-qualified 401(k) liability, which is offset in general and administrative expenses.

•
Revenue - Revenue growth resulted from volume growth. New-store admissions growth was primarily due to the acquisition of Alacare on July 1, 2019. Revenue per episode decreased primarily due to implementation of PDGM on January 1, 2020, the effects of which were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the patient mix of the former Alacare locations. Revenue per episode in the first quarter of 2020 benefited from the reversal of a $1.6 million reserve for a Zone Program Integrity Contractor audit.
Hospice revenue increased 39.5%, with approximately 75% of the increase resulting from the acquisition of Alacare.
•
Adjusted EBITDA - The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from COVID-19 pandemic related impacts on patient volumes, staff productivity and medical supplies, lower reimbursement rates under PDGM, and increased salaries and wages per full-time equivalent. The segment's administrative costs also increased year over year due to the implementation of PDGM and the Review Choice Demonstration, as well as an increase in sale force full-time equivalents.

General and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of consolidated revenue primarily due to the $4.4 million year-over-year change in the mark-to-market adjustment on the Company's non-qualified 401(k) liability (an offset to the negative impact on the inpatient rehabilitation segment's operating results).

COVID-19 pandemic
The Company continues to take actions to enhance its operational and financial flexibility and ensure its long-term sustainability. Recently, the Company's executive team voluntarily reduced their base compensation for six months. In addition, the Company has:
•
secured secondary sources of PPE and other medical supplies;
•
aligned staffing with patient demand;
•
amended its senior credit facility to provide covenant relief;
•
developed plans for reducing capital expenditures; and
•
suspended its authorized share repurchase program.
After lengthy consideration, the Company has developed plans to manage labor costs in response to lower patient volumes via furloughs, changes to compensation structures and workforce reductions.
Shareholder and other distributions
In February 2020, the Company settled the final put of the Home Health Holdings rollover shares and exercise of stock appreciation rights for approximately $263 million of cash and approximately $46 million of Encompass Health common stock.
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased 80,304 shares of its common stock for $4.9 million. The Company suspended stock repurchases in mid-March 2020.
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per share on its common stock and declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per share that was paid in April 2020.
Balance sheet and liquidity
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As of March 31,2020, the Company had approximately $105 million in cash and approximately $613 million available to it under its $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. The Company does not face near-term refinancing risk, as the amounts outstanding under its credit agreement do not mature until 2024, and its bonds all mature in 2023 and beyond. The Company's leverage ratio at the end of the first quarter of 2020 was 3.5x.
To further enhance its liquidity and ensure availability under its credit agreement, in April 2020, the Company amended its credit agreement primarily to provide covenant relief due to business disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic. The amendment included, among other things, the carve-out of the COVID-19 pandemic from the definition of material adverse effect for 364 days and modifications to the interest coverage and leverage ratios under the agreement.
Guidance
Given the rapidly changing operating conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company cannot accurately estimate the effects it may have on its full-year 2020 financial results. As a result, the Company withdrew its 2020 guidance and five-year growth targets in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 16, 2020.
Earnings conference call and webcast
The Company will host an investor conference call at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday, April 29, 2020, to discuss its results for the first quarter of 2020. For reference during the call, the Company will post certain supplemental information at http://investor.encompasshealth.com.

In addition, Encompass Health, through its senior management, may from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning the matters described herein. All such estimates, projections, and forward-looking information speak only as of the date hereof, and Encompass Health undertakes no duty to publicly update or revise such forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates based upon current information, involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and relate to, among other things, future events, Encompass Health's plan to repurchase its debt or equity securities, dividend strategies, effective income tax rates, its business strategy, its financial plans, its future financial performance, its projected business results or model, its ability to return value to shareholders, its projected capital expenditures, its leverage ratio, its acquisition opportunities, and the impact of future legislation or regulation. Actual events or results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. While it is impossible to identify all such factors, factors which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those estimated by Encompass Health include, but are not limited to, the continued spread of COVID-19, including the speed, depth, geographic reach and duration of the spread, which could decrease our patient volumes and revenues and lead to staffing and supply shortages and associated cost increases; actions to be taken by the Company in response to the pandemic; the legal, regulatory and administrative developments that occur at the federal, state and local levels; the Company’s infectious disease prevention and control efforts; the demand for the Company’s services, including based on any downturns in the economy, consumer confidence, or the capital markets and unemployment among family members; the price of Encompass Health's common stock as it affects the Company's willingness and ability to repurchase shares and the financial and accounting effects of any repurchases; any adverse outcome of various lawsuits, claims, and legal or regulatory proceedings involving Encompass Health, including any matters related to yet undiscovered issues, if any, in acquired operations; Encompass Health's ability to attract and retain key management personnel; any adverse effects on Encompass Health's stock price resulting from the integration of acquired operations; potential disruptions, breaches, or other incidents affecting the proper operation, availability, or security of Encompass Health's or its vendors' information systems, including unauthorized access to or theft of patient, business associate, or other sensitive information or inability to provide patient care because of system unavailability as well as unforeseen issues, if any, related to integration of acquired systems; the ability to successfully integrate acquired operations, including realization of anticipated tax benefits, revenues, and cost savings, minimizing the negative impact on margins arising from the changes in staffing and other operating practices, and avoidance of unforeseen exposure to liabilities; Encompass Health's ability to successfully complete and integrate de novo developments, acquisitions, investments, and joint ventures consistent with its growth strategy; increases in Medicare audit activity, including increased use of sampling and extrapolation, resulting in additional unpaid reimbursement claims and an increase in the backlog of appealed claims denials; changes, delays in (including in connection with resolution of Medicare payment reviews or appeals), or suspension of reimbursement for Encompass Health's services by governmental or private payors; changes in the regulation of the healthcare industry at either or both of the federal and state levels, including as part of national healthcare reform and deficit reduction (such as the Patient-Driven Groupings Model for home health, the new patient assessment measures, referred to as “Section GG functional measures,” for inpatient rehabilitation, and other payment system reforms) and Encompass Health’s ability to adapt operations to those changes; competitive pressures in the healthcare industry and Encompass Health's response thereto; Encompass Health's ability to obtain and retain favorable arrangements with third-party payors; Encompass Health's ability to control costs, particularly labor and employee benefit costs, including group medical expenses; adverse effects resulting from coverage determinations made by Medicare Administrative Contractors regarding its Medicare reimbursement claims and lengthening delays in Encompass Health's ability to recover improperly denied claims through the administrative appeals process on a timely basis; Encompass Health's ability to adapt to changes in the healthcare delivery system, including value-based purchasing and involvement in coordinated care initiatives or programs that may arise with its referral sources; Encompass Health's
