LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kindred Healthcare, Inc. (“Kindred” or the “Company”) (NYSE: KND) today announced its operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.

Benjamin A. Breier, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We are pleased to report a solid second quarter that represents our first full quarter of combined operations since completing the Gentiva Health Services, Inc. (“Gentiva”) and Centerre Healthcare Corporation (“Centerre”) acquisitions earlier this year. We made substantial progress on our integration and synergy initiatives for Gentiva and Centerre and expect to continue that positive momentum into the third quarter. The operating and financial performance of both of these businesses has exceeded our expectations and further strengthened our ability to deliver outstanding patient care across the Company.”

All financial and statistical information included in this press release reflects the continuing operations of the Company’s businesses for all periods presented unless otherwise indicated. The acquisitions of Gentiva and Centerre have been included in the operating results presented since the date of acquisition.

Second Quarter Consolidated Highlights(1):

  • Consolidated revenues increased 45.4% to $1.83 billion and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and certain charges (“core EBITDAR”) increased 48.9% to $262 million, each as compared to the same period last year
  • Core diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.39 and adjusted core diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.51 based upon 86.4 million weighted average diluted shares, an improvement as compared to core diluted EPS of $0.35 and adjusted core diluted EPS of $0.50 for the same period a year ago based upon 53.8 million weighted average diluted shares
  • The Company generated significant core operating cash flows of $98 million compared to $1 million for the same period a year ago; core free cash flows were $73 million compared to a core free cash flow deficit of $23 million in the second quarter of 2014
  • The Kindred Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share on the Company’s common stock payable on September 4, 2015

Second Quarter Segment Highlights(1):

Kindred’s Hospital Division (“HD”) revenues increased 2.4% over the prior year to $627 million in the second quarter of 2015 driven primarily by growth in revenue per admission of 5.5%. Admissions in the quarter declined 2.6% on a same-hospital basis over the prior year. HD’s core EBITDAR contribution remained unchanged at $132 million, due to effective cost controls that kept cost per patient day growth under 1.0%. HD continues to make solid progress in its preparations for the implementation of the new long-term acute care hospital criteria, which has an initial effective date for the Company of September 1, 2016.

Kindred at Home (“KAH”) revenues and core EBITDAR grew to $606 million and $101 million, respectively, for the quarter. The home health operations achieved solid growth during the second quarter of 2015, with episodic admissions increasing 6.5% and revenues increasing 7.6% to $360 million, both over the prior year on a combined basis. The hospice segment generated $178 million of revenues, continuing its growth trajectory with a 2% sequential growth in average daily census.

Kindred Rehabilitation Services (“KRS”) revenues grew 11.7% to $389 million and core EBITDAR contribution grew 29.8% to $59 million. The hospital-based rehabilitation services segment, which includes Kindred’s freestanding inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRF”), experienced strong revenue growth of $58 million or 60.6% over the prior year, due to the successful Centerre acquisition, and achieved core EBITDAR margin improvement from 27.1% to 29.2%. The skilled nursing rehabilitation services segment (“RHB”) experienced a 6.7% revenue reduction from the prior year primarily due to contract losses in the first quarter. RHB had additional contract losses in the second quarter, but these moderated compared to the levels in the first quarter of 2015.

Kindred’s Nursing Center Division (“NCD”) had an outstanding quarter, reporting revenue and admissions growth of 3.6% and 2.2%, respectively, over the prior year. NCD core EBITDAR increased 4.8% over the prior year to $41 million based upon improved revenue, rates and admissions compared to the prior year.

Mr. Breier commented, “While we are pleased with the operational and clinical performance of each of our business segments, we are even more encouraged by how these businesses are coming together to deliver a coordinated continuum of care that enables population-based delivery models in a value-based reimbursement system. With the integrated markets we serve, and the diversity of services we deploy today, we are able to deliver quality care in the right setting, at the right time and at the right cost. We believe that this network is one that will be increasingly valued by payors and patients alike.”

2015 Outlook

Kindred today reaffirmed its previously provided estimates for 2015 financial results and raised its core earnings per share guidance for 2015. (2) Kindred now expects:

  • 2015 annual revenues of approximately $7.2 billion
  • Core EBITDAR of approximately $1.0 billion to $1.05 billion (3)
  • Adjusted core earnings of $1.70 to $1.90 per diluted share(4)(5)
  • Kindred raised its core earnings expectations to $1.25 to $1.45 per diluted share (4) compared to its prior expectations of $1.20 to $1.40 per diluted share.

For the third quarter of 2015, the Company expects core diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to approximate $0.18 to $0.28 and adjusted core diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to approximate $0.30 to $0.40.

_____________

(1) See reconciliation of core results to GAAP results beginning on page 11.
(2) Guidance includes Gentiva for eleven months and Centerre for the full year.
(3) Includes $35 million from Gentiva synergies expected to be realized in 2015.
(4) The earnings per share estimate is based upon an estimated weighted average annual diluted share count for 2015 of 86 million shares. The estimated annual diluted share count for 2015 includes approximately 3.5 million shares of common stock issued in February and May to holders of 80,621 tangible equity units that elected early conversion settlements.
(5) Adjusted core earnings per diluted share is calculated by excluding non-cash expenses, net of the income tax benefit, related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and deferred financing costs, from core income from continuing operations. The estimated non-cash expenses for 2015 total approximately $66 million ($40 million net of income taxes) or approximately $0.45 per diluted share.
 

Stephen D. Farber, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We have significantly progressed our Gentiva and Centerre integration efforts over the quarter. We are on track both operationally and financially for the year, including our goal to realize $35 million of synergy contribution in 2015. Our cash flow performance in the quarter was markedly improved over the prior year, and we continue to make progress with our leverage profile while investing in our businesses and returning significant capital to shareholders through our quarterly cash dividends.”

The guidance excludes transaction costs, pre-closing financing costs and post-closing integration costs associated with the acquisitions of Gentiva and Centerre, the effect of reimbursement changes, debt refinancing costs, severance, retirement, retention and restructuring costs, litigation and related contingency expense (including the $95 million loss contingency reserve accrued during the first quarter of 2015 related to the previously disclosed investigation into a therapy services company acquired by Kindred in 2011), other transaction costs, any further acquisitions or divestitures, any impairment charges, any further issuances of common stock or any repurchases of common stock.

Quarterly Cash Dividend

The Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved the payment of the regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock to be paid on September 4, 2015 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 19, 2015.

Forward-Looking Statements
 

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s acquisitions of Gentiva and Centerre (including the benefits, results and effects of such acquisitions), all statements regarding the Company’s expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, dividends, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management, and statements containing the words such as “anticipate,” “approximate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “will,” “intend,” “may,” “potential,” “upside,” and other similar expressions. Statements in this press release concerning the Company’s business outlook or future economic performance, anticipated profitability, revenues, expenses, dividends or other financial items, and product or services line growth, together with other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates reflecting the best judgment of the Company based upon currently available information.

 
Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and stockholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from the Company’s expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which the Company is unable to predict or control, that may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or plans to differ materially from any future results, performance or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed below and detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s acquisitions of Gentiva and Centerre include, but are not limited to, uncertainties as to whether the acquisitions will have the accretive effect on the Company’s earnings or cash flows that it expects, the inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, cost savings and synergies from the acquisitions, costs and difficulties related to the integration of Gentiva’s and Centerre’s businesses and operations with the Company’s businesses and operations, unexpected costs, liabilities, charges or expenses resulting from the acquisitions, adverse effects on the Company’s stock price resulting from the acquisitions, the inability to retain key personnel, and potential adverse reactions, changes to business relationships or competitive responses resulting from the acquisitions.
 
In addition to the factors set forth above, other factors that may affect the Company’s plans, results or stock price are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
 
Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control. The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by the Company are not guarantees of future performance. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to announce publicly the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.
 
 
Non-GAAP Measurements
 

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided information in this release to compute certain non-GAAP measurements for the two quarters in 2015, four quarters in 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 before certain charges or on a core and adjusted core basis. The use of these non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the presentation of core operating results provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison between periods by excluding certain charges that are not representative of its ongoing operations due to the materiality and nature of the charges. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted core operating results, which excludes non-cash expenses related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and deferred financing costs from core operating results, is a useful performance measure used by some investors, equity analysts and others to make informed investment decisions and for comparability to other companies that use similar measures. The Company’s earnings release also includes financial measures referred to as operating income, or EBITDAR or core EBITDAR, and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). The Company’s management uses core EBITDAR or core EBITDA as meaningful measures of operational performance in addition to other measures. The Company uses core EBITDAR or core EBITDA to assess the relative performance of its operating divisions as well as the employees that operate these businesses. In addition, the Company believes these measurements are important because securities analysts and investors use these measurements to compare the Company’s performance to other companies in the healthcare industry. The Company believes that income (loss) from continuing operations is the most comparable GAAP measure. Readers of the Company’s financial information should consider income (loss) from continuing operations as an important measure of the Company’s financial performance because it provides the most complete measure of its performance. Operating results presented on a core and adjusted core basis and core EBITDAR or core EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures based upon GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measurements to the GAAP measurements are included in the following pages of this press release.

 
Also in this press release, the Company provides the financial measures of operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items, which the Company refers to as core operating cash flows and core free cash flows. The Company recognizes that operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items are non-GAAP measurements and are not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s cash flows in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measurements provide important information to investors for comparability to other companies that use similar measures. In addition, management uses operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items in making decisions related to acquisitions, development capital expenditures, dividends, long-term debt repayments and other uses. The Company believes net cash flows provided by operating activities is the most comparable GAAP measure. Readers of the Company’s financial information should consider net cash flows provided by operating activities as an important measure of the Company’s financial performance because it provides the most complete measure of its performance. Operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures based upon GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. Reconciliations of net cash flows provided by operating activities to operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items are included in this press release.
 
               
KINDRED HEALTHCARE, INC.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share amounts and statistics)
 
In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided information in this release to compute certain non-GAAP measurements for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 before certain charges or on a core basis. The charges that were excluded from core operating results are denoted in the tables below.
 
The income tax benefit associated with the excluded charges was calculated using an effective income tax rate of 9.9% and 37.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 21.9% and 37.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The difference in the effective income tax rate for both periods compared to the same prior year periods is attributable to the composition of charges that are non-deductible or the deductibility is uncertain for income tax purposes, including the litigation contingency expense.
 

The use of these non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the presentation of core operating results provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison between periods by excluding certain charges for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 that are not representative of its ongoing operations due to the materiality and the nature of the charges. The Company's core operating results also represent a key performance measure for the purpose of evaluating performance internally. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted core operating results, which excludes non-cash expenses related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and deferred financing costs from core operating results, is a performance measure used by some investors, equity analysts and others to make informed investment decisions and for comparability to other companies that use similar measures.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results (Continued)
(Unaudited)
(In thousands)
 
The Company recognizes that operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items, which the Company refers to as core operating cash flows and core free cash flows, are non-GAAP measurements and are not intended to replace the presentation of the Company's cash flows in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measurements provide important information to investors related to the amount of discretionary cash flows that are available for other investing and financing activities. In addition, management uses operating cash flows and free cash flows excluding certain items in making decisions related to acquisitions, development capital expenditures, dividends, long-term debt repayments and other uses.
