Indicate by check mark if disclosure of delinquent filers pursuant to Item 405 of Regulation S-K is not contained herein, and will not be contained, to the best of registrant’s knowledge, in definitive proxy or information statements incorporated by reference in Part III of this Form 10-K or any amendment to this Form 10-K. [ ]. Not Applicable
At March 30, 2002, the registrant had 7,896,499 shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Certain statements in this Form 10-K, including information set forth under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, constitute “Forward-Looking Statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”). The Company desires to take advantage of certain “safe harbor” provisions of the Reform Act and is including this special note to enable the Company to do so. Forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K, or hereafter included in other publicly available documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to the Company’s stockholders and other publicly available statements issued or released by the Company involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause the Company’s actual results, performance (financial or operating) or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance (financial or operating) or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The Company believes the following important factors could cause such a material difference to occur:
1. The occurrence of changes in the mix of payment sources utilized by the
Company's patients to pay for the Company's services.
2. The adoption of cost containment measures by private pay sources such as
commercial insurers and managed care organizations, as well as efforts by
governmental reimbursement sources to impose cost containment measures.
3. Changes in the United States healthcare system, including changes in
reimbursement levels and the method of reimbursement, under Medicaid and
Medicare, and other changes in applicable government regulations that might
affect the profitability of the Company.
4. The Company’s continued ability to operate in a heavily regulated
environment and to satisfy regulatory authorities, thereby avoiding a
number of potentially adverse consequences, such as the imposition of
fines, temporary suspension of admission of patients, restrictions on the
ability to acquire new facilities, suspension or decertification from
Medicaid or Medicare programs, and in extreme cases, revocation of a
facility’s license or the closure of a facility, including as a result
of unauthorized activities by employees.
5. The Company’s ability to secure the capital and the related cost of
such capital necessary to fund its future growth through acquisition and
development, as well as internal growth.
6. Changes in certificate of need laws that might increase competition in the
Company’s industry, including, particularly, in the states in which
the Company currently operates or anticipates operating in the future.
7. The Company’s ability to staff its facilities appropriately with
qualified healthcare personnel, including in times of shortages of such
personnel and to maintain a satisfactory relationship with labor unions.
8. The level of competition in the Company’s industry, including without
limitation, increased competition from acute care hospitals, providers of
assisted and independent living and providers of home healthcare and
changes in the regulatory system in the state in which the Company operates
that facilitate such competition.
9. The continued availability of insurance for the inherent risks of liability
in the healthcare industry.
10. Price increases in pharmaceuticals, durable medical equipment and other
items.
11. The Company’s reputation for delivering high-quality care and its
ability to attract and retain patients, including patients with relatively
high acuity levels.
12. Changes in general economic conditions, including changes that pressure
governmental reimbursement sources to reduce the amount and scope of
healthcare coverage.
The foregoing review of significant factors should not be construed as
exhaustive or as an admission regarding the adequacy of disclosures previously
made by the Company.

GENERAL OVERVIEW
Harborside Healthcare Corporation, through its subsidiaries provides high quality long-term care, subacute care and other specialty medical services in four principal geographic regions: the Southeast (Florida), the Midwest (Ohio and Indiana), New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island), and the Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey and Maryland). Within these regions, as of December 31, 2001, Harborside Healthcare Corporation (on a consolidated basis, “Harborside” or the “Company”) operated 51 licensed long-term care facilities (18 owned, 32 leased and one managed) with a total of 6,274 licensed beds.
The Company provides traditional skilled nursing care, a wide range of subacute care programs (such as orthopedic, CVA/stroke, cardiac, pulmonary and wound care), as well as programs for the provision of care to Alzheimer’s and hospice patients. As part of its subacute services, the Company provides physical, occupational and speech rehabilitation therapy services at Company-operated facilities. Through September 1999, the Company also provided rehabilitation therapy services under contracts with non-affiliated long-term care facilities through a wholly-owned subsidiary. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company terminated its contracts with non-affiliated facilities and ceased providing therapy services to non-affiliated facilities.
Harborside was created in March 1996, in anticipation of an initial public offering (the “IPO”), in order to combine under its control the operations of various long-term care facilities and ancillary businesses (the “Predecessor Entities”) which had operated since 1988. The Company completed the IPO on June 14, 1996 and issued 3,600,000 shares of common stock at $11.75 per share. Immediately prior to the IPO the owners of the Predecessor Entities contributed their interests in such Predecessor Entities to the Company and received 4,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Reorganization”).
On April 15, 1998, Harborside entered into a Merger Agreement with HH Acquisition Corp. (“MergerCo”), an entity organized for the sole purpose of effecting a merger on behalf of Investcorp S.A., certain of its affiliates and certain other international investors (the “New Investors”). On August 11, 1998, MergerCo merged with and into Harborside, with Harborside as the surviving corporation. In the merger, each share not retained by existing shareholders was converted into $25 in cash, representing in the aggregate, cash payments of approximately $184 million. Holders of outstanding stock options of the Company converted the majority of their options into cash at $25 per underlying share (less applicable exercise price and withholding taxes) with aggregate payments of approximately $8 million. In connection with the transaction and prior to the merger, the New Investors made cash common equity contributions of $158.5 million, net of issuance costs, to MergerCo, and MergerCo obtained gross proceeds of $99.5 million through the issuance of 11% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (“Discount Notes”) due 2008 and $40 million through the issuance of 13.5% Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) mandatorily redeemable in 2010. In the third quarter of 1998, Harborside recorded a charge to income from operations of $37 million ($29 million after taxes) for direct and other costs related to the merger transaction. In connection with the merger and the related refinancings, the Company exercised purchase options for seven facilities which had been financed through synthetic leases. As a result of the transaction, and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the New Investors acquired approximately 91% of the post-merger common stock of Harborside. The remaining 9% of the common stock was retained by existing shareholders, including management. As a result of the merger, Harborside shares were de-listed from the New York Stock Exchange.
In March 2001, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Restructuring Agreement") with Investcorp S.A. and the holders of more than a majority in interest of the Company's Discount Notes and Preferred Stock for purposes of implementing a restructuring of the Discount Notes and Preferred Stock. The Restructuring Agreement contemplated that the Company would offer to exchange for each $1,000 amount at maturity of outstanding Discount Notes a combination of the following: (1)0.5899118 of a new 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Note due 2007 (the "New Notes") each having a principal amount at maturity equal to $1,000 and an original issue price of $685.67 (assuming that the New Notes were issued on May 4, 2001), (2) $88.2353 in cash and (3) common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.9 shares of its Class A Common Stock. The Company would also offer to exchange common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.7 shares of its Class A Common Stock for each $1,000 liquidation preference of Preferred Stock (based on the aggregate liquidation preference to be outstanding on May 1, 2001) plus any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock after May 1, 2001. In conjunction with the restructuring proposal, the Company would solicit consents from holders of outstanding Discount Notes and Preferred Stock to amendments to the Indenture governing the Discount Notes and to the Certificate of Designation governing the Preferred Stock that would eliminate or modify certain restrictive covenants and other provisions contained in the Indenture and the Certificate of Designation and would substantially eliminate the preferences of the Preferred Stock, including the reduction of the liquidation preference from $1,000 to $0.01 per share and the elimination of the right of holders to be paid dividends on shares of Preferred Stock. Also, the Company would issue to Investcorp S.A. (or one or more of its affiliates or designees) up to 15,000 shares of a new series of 13% convertible exchangeable preferred stock (the "New Preferred Stock") and 1,854,422 common stock purchase warrants for a total purchase price of up to $15,000,000.
On April 6, 2001 the Company initiated the exchange offer and consent solicitation contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement. On May 10, 2001, the Company completed the exchange offer and consent solicitation, thereby implementing each of the elements of the Restructuring Agreement. All of the outstanding Discount Notes and 99.96% of the shares of Preferred Stock were tendered and exchanged in the exchange offer. As a result of the exchange, (1) the Company has an aggregate principal amount at maturity of $100,276,000 of New Notes outstanding and an aggregate liquidation preference of $15,000,000 (as of May 10, 2001) of New Preferred Stock outstanding, (2) warrants were issued to holders of Discount Notes, to holders of Preferred Stock, and to Investcorp S.A. representing the right to purchase an aggregate of approximately 15%, 5% and 15%, respectively, of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion
of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which will initially be convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (3) the Company paid $15,000,000 in cash as partial consideration for the tendered Discount Notes.
The reduction in the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock was completed on May 10, 2001, as contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $57,595,000 to $576 and the amount of the reduction, net of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Preferred Stock (approximately $1,011,000 at May 10, 2001), was directly transferred to the Company's Accumulated Deficit account. With the exchange of the New Notes for the Discount Notes (the "Note Exchange"), the carrying value of the accreted principal of the Discount Notes was reduced to $68,890,000, and the amount of the reduction, net of the aggregate cash payment of $15,000,000, was directly transferred to the Company's Long-term Accrued Interest account. Subsequent to their issuance, the carrying amount of the New Notes increases as the result of accretion and results in a corresponding decrease in the carrying amount of Long-term Accrued Interest. Interest expense on the New Notes is recognized such that a constant effective interest rate is applied to the aggregate carrying amount of the New Notes and Long-term Accrued Interest for all periods between the issuance date and the maturity date of the New Notes.
In connection with an amendment to the Company's revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") and the implementation of the Restructuring Agreement, the Company incurred a non-recurring charge of $9,045,000. The charge resulted from the write-off of approximately $1,500,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained, the write-off of approximately $3,400,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Discount Notes, and the recognition of various investment advisory, legal and other fees associated with these events of $4,145,000.
The New Notes were issued at a discount and interest on the New Notes accretes until August 1, 2004. Cash interest payments will be paid semi-annually in arrears beginning on February 1, 2005 based on the fully accreted value of the New Notes and a 12% cash interest payment rate. The New Notes mature on August 1, 2007. The New Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008. The holders of the New Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends quarterly in arrears beginning August 1, 2001 and payable in additional shares of New Preferred Stock. Warrants to purchase a total of 4,326,641 shares of common stock at $0.01 per share were issued on May 10, 2001.
PATIENT SERVICES
Basic Patient Services
Basic patient services are those traditionally provided to elderly patients in long-term care facilities to assist with the activities of daily living and to provide general medical care. The Company provides 24-hour skilled nursing care by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nursing aides in most of its facilities. Each facility is managed by an on-site licensed administrator who is responsible for the overall operation of the facility, including the quality of care provided. The medical needs of patients at the Company’s licensed skilled nursing facilities are supervised by a medical director, who is a licensed physician. Although treatment of patients is the responsibility of their own attending physicians, who are not employed by the Company, the medical director monitors all aspects of delivery of care. The Company also provides support services, including dietary services, therapeutic recreational activities, social services, housekeeping and laundry services, pharmaceutical and medical supplies and routine rehabilitation therapy.
Each facility offers a number of individualized therapeutic activities designed to enhance the quality of life of its patients. These activities include entertainment events, musical productions, trips, arts and crafts and volunteer and other programs that encourage community interaction.
Specialty Medical Services
Specialty medical services are those provided to patients with medically complex needs, who generally require more extensive treatment and a higher level of skilled nursing care. These services typically generate higher net patient service revenues per patient day than basic patient services as a result of increased levels of care and the provision of ancillary services.
Subacute Care. Subacute care is goal-oriented, comprehensive care designed for an individual who has had an acute illness, injury, or exacerbation of a disease process. Subacute care is typically rendered immediately after, or instead of, acute hospitalization in order to treat one or more specific, active, complex medical conditions or in order to administer one or more technically complex treatments. The Company provides subacute care services at substantially all of its existing facilities in such areas as complex medical, cardiac recovery, digestive, immuno-suppressed disease, post-surgical, wound, CVA/stroke care, hemodialysis, infusion therapy, and diabetes and pain management.
In facilities that have shown strong demand for subacute services, the Company has developed subacute units. Each unit contains 20 to 60 beds and is specially staffed and equipped for the delivery of subacute care. Patients in these units typically range in age from late teens to the elderly, and typically require high levels of nursing care and the services of physicians, therapists, dietitians, clinical pharmacists or psycho/social counselors. Certain patients may also require life support or monitoring equipment. Because patient goals are generally rehabilitation-oriented, lengths of stay in distinct subacute units are generally not expected to substantially exceed 30 days.
Alzheimer’s Care. The Company has also developed units that provide care for patients with Alzheimer’s disease. As of December 31, 2001, the Company operated dedicated Alzheimer’s units at nine facilities.
OPERATIONS
Facilities. Each of the Company’s facilities is supervised by a licensed facility administrator who is responsible for all aspects of the facility’s operations. The facility administrator oversees (i) a director of nursing who supervises a staff of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nursing aides, (ii) a director of admissions who is responsible for developing local marketing strategies and programs and (iii) various other departmental supervisors. The Company also contracts with one or more licensed physicians at each facility to serve as medical directors for the purpose of supervising the medical management of patients. Facilities with subacute or specialty medical units or programs may also contract with physician specialists to serve as rehabilitation or specialty program medical directors in areas such as physiatry (physical medicine), neurology or gero-psychology. Facilities may also employ or contract for additional clinical staff such as nurse liaisons, case managers, therapists and program directors. Department supervisors at each of the Company’s facilities oversee personnel who provide dietary, maintenance, laundry, housekeeping, therapy and social services. In addition, a business office staff at each facility routinely performs administrative functions, including billing, payroll and accounts payable processing. The Company’s corporate and regional staff provide support services such as quality assurance, management training, clinical consultation and support, management information systems, risk management, human resource policies and procedures, operational support, accounting and reimbursement expertise.
Regions. The Company seeks to cluster its long-term care facilities in selected geographic regions to establish a strong competitive position as well as to position the Company as a healthcare provider of choice to managed care and private payors in these markets. The Company’s facilities currently serve four principal geographic regions: the Southeast (Florida), the Midwest (Ohio and Indiana), New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island), and the Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey and Maryland). The Company maintains regional operating offices in Palm Harbor, Florida; Beachwood, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; Topsfield, Massachusetts; West Hartford, Connecticut; and Sharon, New Hampshire. Each region is supervised by a regional director of operations who directs the efforts of a team of professional support staff in the areas of clinical services, marketing, bookkeeping, human resources and engineering. Other Company staff, who are principally based in the regions, provide support and assistance to all of the Company’s facilities in the areas of subacute services, managed care contracting, reimbursement services, risk management, data processing and training. Financial control is maintained through financial and accounting policies established at the corporate level for use at each facility. The Company has standardized operating policies and procedures and continually monitors operating performance to assure consistency and quality of operations.
Continuous Quality Improvement Program. The Company has developed a continuous quality improvement program which is designed to monitor, evaluate and improve the delivery of patient care. The program is supervised by the Company’s Senior Vice President of Clinical Services and the Vice President of Quality Assurance and Improvement and consists of the standardization of policies and procedures, routine site visits and assessments and a quality control system for patient care and physical plant compliance. Pursuant to its quality control system, the Company routinely collects information from patients, family members, referral sources, employees and state survey agencies which is then compiled, analyzed and distributed throughout the Company in order to monitor the quality of care and services provided.
The Company’s continuous quality improvement program is modeled after guidelines for long-term care and subacute facilities promulgated by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (“JCAHO”), a nationally recognized accreditation agency for hospitals and other healthcare organizations. The Company believes that JCAHO accreditation is an important factor in gaining provider contracts from managed care and commercial insurance companies. Accordingly, in late 1995 the Company began a program to seek accreditation from JCAHO for the Company’s facilities. As of December 31, 2001, 33 of the Company’s facilities had received accreditation.
MARKETING
The Company’s marketing program is designed to attract patients who will have a favorable impact on the Company’s profits and quality mix of revenues. The Company establishes monthly occupancy and revenue goals for each of its facilities and maintains marketing objectives to be met by each facility. The Company’s Vice President of Marketing and Managed Care is principally responsible for the development and implementation of the Company’s marketing program. Regional marketing directors provide routine support to the facility-based admissions directors through the development of facility-based marketing strategies, competitive assessments and routine visits.
The Company uses a decentralized marketing approach in order to capitalize on each facility’s strengths and reputation in the community it serves. Admissions staff at each facility are primarily responsible for marketing basic medical services and developing semi-annual marketing plans in consultation with the Company’s regional marketing and operations staff. Basic medical services are marketed to area physicians, hospital discharge planning personnel, individual patients and their families and community referral sources. Facility personnel also market the Company’s specialty medical services to these sources. Corporate and regional personnel who specialize in subacute care, managed care and reimbursement also assist in the marketing of specialty medical services.
The Company believes its marketing program has demonstrated its effectiveness. The Company’s average annual occupancy rates for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 were 90.9%, 90.1% and 88.9% respectively. In comparison, a study of approximately 17,000 nursing facilities conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services found that in 1997 nursing facilities operated at approximately 88% of capacity.
SOURCES OF REVENUES
The Company derives its revenues primarily from private pay sources, the Federal Medicare program for certain elderly and disabled patients and state Medicaid programs for indigent patients. The Company’s revenues are influenced by a number of factors, including (i) the licensed bed capacity of its facilities, (ii) the occupancy rates of its facilities, (iii) the payor mix of its facilities and the rates of reimbursement among payor categories (private and other, Medicare and Medicaid) and (iv) the extent to which subacute and other specialty medical and ancillary services are utilized by the patients and paid for by the respective payment sources. The Company employs specialists to monitor reimbursement rules, policies and related developments in order to comply with all reporting requirements and to assist the Company in receiving reimbursements. Although Medicare and higher acuity patients generally produce the highest revenue per patient day, costs associated with the higher acuity needs of these patients also tend to be higher. The Company believes that Medicaid patients generally produce the lowest profit margins.
The following table identifies the Company's percentage of net revenues
attributable to each of its payor sources for the periods indicated:

(1) Total net revenues exclude net revenues of the Larkin Chase Center which is owned by the Bowie Center Limited Partnership (“Bowie L.P.”). The Company owns a 75% partnership interest in Bowie L.P. but records its investment in Bowie L.P. using the equity method of accounting. See Note A to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing.
Private and Other. Private and other net revenues include payments from individuals who pay directly for services without governmental assistance and payments from commercial insurers, HMOs, PPOs, Blue Cross organizations, workers’ compensation programs, hospice programs and other similar payment sources. The Company’s rates for private pay patients are typically higher than rates for patients eligible for assistance under state Medicaid programs. The Company’s private pay rates vary from facility to facility and are influenced primarily by the rates charged by other providers in the local market and by the Company’s ability to distinguish its services from those provided by its competitors. Although private pay rates are generally established on a facility-specific fee schedule, rates charged for individual cases may vary widely because, in the case of managed care, they are either negotiated on a case-by-case basis with the payor or are fixed by contract. Rates charged to private pay patients are not subject to regulatory control in any of the states in which the Company operates.
Medicare. Substantially all of the Company’s facilities are certified Medicare providers. Medicare is a federally funded and administered health insurance program primarily designed for individuals who are age 65 or over and are entitled to receive Social Security benefits. The Medicare program consists of two parts. The first part, Part A, covers inpatient hospital services and certain services furnished by other institutional healthcare providers, such as skilled nursing facilities. The Medicare Part A program provides reimbursement for skilled nursing services provided to Medicare beneficiaries who are admitted to skilled nursing care facilities following a minimum three-day stay in an acute care hospital. Part A covered services include skilled nursing care, rehabilitative therapy treatment, social services, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies in addition to other services. Part A coverage for services delivered in a skilled nursing facility requires a three-day stay in an acute care hospital and is limited to a specified term (generally 100 days per “spell of illness”), requires beneficiaries to share some of the cost of covered services through the payment of a deductible and a co-insurance payment and requires beneficiaries to meet certain qualifying criteria. The second part of the Medicare program, Part B, covers the services of doctors, suppliers of medical items and services and various types of outpatient services. Part B services include physical, speech and occupational therapy and durable medical equipment and other ancillary services of the type provided by long-term care or acute care facilities. Part B services generally require beneficiaries to share the cost of covered services through a co-insurance payment. Prior to December 31, 1998 there were no limits on duration of coverage for Part B services.
Through December 31, 1998, the Medicare Part A program reimbursed the Company for covered services under a cost-based reimbursement system for its allowable direct and indirect costs. In August of 1997, the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 ( the “BBA”) was enacted. The BBA provided a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for skilled nursing facilities to be implemented for cost reporting years beginning on or after July 1, 1998. The Company’s facilities began to be reimbursed in accordance with the BBA beginning January 1, 1999. During the first three years of PPS, the Part A Medicare per diem rates were based on a blend of facility-specific rates and federal rates. Beginning on January 1, 2002, the per diem rates will be based solely on federal rates. As a result of the implementation of PPS, the Company’s Medicare Part A per diem rate declined from $397 in 1998 to $290 in 1999. Various Federal actions during the past two years have restored some of the funding eliminated through enactment of the BBA. However, despite these actions, the Company’s Part A Medicare per diem rate remains substantially lower than the rate received prior to the enactment of the BBA. The Company’s Part A Medicare per diem rate increased to $322 in 2000 and $340 in 2001. See “Government Regulation ” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The BBA also implemented a prospective payment system for Part B services. Prior to January 1, 1999, the Company was reimbursed for Part B services on a cost reimbursement basis. Beginning January 1, 1999, Medicare Part B services began being reimbursed on a fee screen basis. These fee screens are revised by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) on an annual basis.
The BBA also imposed an annual limitation on Part B therapy charges of $1,500 per beneficiary.
Medicaid. Substantially all of the Company’s facilities participate in the Medicaid program of the states in which they are located. Medicaid is a state-administered reimbursement program for indigent patients financed by state funds (and in certain states, county funds) and matching federal funds. Although administered under Federal regulations, states have substantial flexibility to design programs and determine reimbursement rates, and as a result, individuals programs and reimbursement rates vary significantly from state to state. The Federal government retains the right to approve or disapprove individual state plans.
Until the enactment of the BBA, a Federal Medicaid statute, generally referred to as the “Boren Amendment,” required Medicaid programs to provide reimbursement rates that were reasonable and adequate to cover the costs that would be incurred by efficiently and economically operated facilities while providing services in conformity with state and federal laws, regulations and quality and safety standards. The BBA repealed the Boren Amendment effective October 1, 1997 and allowed the states to develop their own standards for determining Medicaid payment rates. In the past, several states’ healthcare provider organizations and providers have initiated litigation challenging the Medicaid reimbursement methodologies employed in such states, asserting that reimbursement payments are not adequate to reimburse an efficiently operated facility for the costs of providing Medicaid covered services. The repeal of the Boren Amendment provides states with greater flexibility to amend individual state programs and potentially reduce state Medicaid payments to skilled nursing facilities. Medicaid covered services vary by state, but generally include nursing care, room and board, and social services. Additionally, some states provide reimbursement for pharmaceuticals, rehabilitative therapy treatment and other services.
The Company has been in the past and could be in the future, adversely affected by the continuing efforts of governmental third-party payors to control health care expenditures.
MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS
The Company’s information systems strategy is to provide its facilities with extensive and timely information, which will allow them to operate efficiently under prospective payment reimbursement systems. A cornerstone of this strategy is to avoid the high costs and risks associated with the internal development of significant transaction processing systems. Whenever possible, the Company’s buys well-tested software and avoids the costs and risks inherent in customizing these systems. The Company also places high importance on the interconnection of transactional and clinical data through its extensive data warehouse capabilities.
All of the Company’s facilities are supported by a centralized, integrated financial reporting system which processes financial transactions and which enables Company personnel to monitor and respond on a timely basis to key operating and financial data and budget variances. Using its data warehouse, the Company monitors its occupancy levels, payor mix and overall staffing and temporary labor utilization on a daily basis. The Company utilizes a payroll processing service company to process payroll transactions and maintain human resources files for employees at all of its facilities. During 1999, the Company installed new clinical and accounts receivable systems at all of its facilities. The Company’s clinical system captures the data necessary to obtain proper reimbursement from the Federal Part A Medicare program as well as certain state Medicaid programs. The Company’s clinical system also provides data essential to the Company’s clinical services, continuous quality improvement program.
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
The Federal government and all states in which the Company operates regulate various aspects of the Company’s business. In addition to the regulation of payment rates by governmental payor sources, the development and operation of long-term care facilities and the provision of long-term care services are subject to Federal, state and local licensure and certification laws which regulate with respect to a facility, among other matters, the number of beds, the services provided, the distribution of pharmaceuticals, equipment, staffing requirements, patients’ rights, operating policies and procedures, fire prevention measures, environmental matters and compliance with building and safety codes. There can be no assurance that Federal, state or local governmental regulations will not change or be subjected to new interpretations that impose additional restrictions which might adversely affect the Company’s business.
All of the skilled nursing facilities operated by the Company are licensed under applicable state laws and possess the required Certificates of Need (“CON”) from responsible state authorities.
Substantially all of the Company’s facilities are certified or approved as providers under the Medicaid and Medicare programs. Both the initial and continuing qualification of a long-term care facility to participate in such programs depend upon many factors, including accommodations, equipment, services, non-discrimination policies against indigent patients, patient care, quality of life, patients’ rights, safety, personnel, physical environment and adequacy of policies, procedures and controls. Licensing, certification and other applicable standards vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and are revised periodically. State agencies survey or inspect all long-term care facilities on a regular basis to determine whether such facilities are in compliance with the requirements for participation in government-sponsored third-party payor programs. In some cases, or upon repeat violations, the reviewing agency has the authority to take various adverse actions against a facility, including the imposition of fines, temporary suspension of admission of new patients to the facility, suspension or decertification from participation in the state Medicaid program or the Medicare program, offset of amounts due against future billings to the Medicare or Medicaid programs, denial of payments under the state Medicaid program for new admissions, reduction of payments, restrictions on the ability to acquire new facilities and, in extreme circumstances, revocation of a facility’s license or closure of a facility.
The Company believes that its facilities are in substantial compliance with all statutes, regulations, standards and requirements applicable to its business, including applicable Medicaid and Medicare regulatory requirements. However, in the ordinary course of its business, the Company from time to time receives notices of deficiencies for failure to comply with various regulatory requirements. In most cases, the Company and the reviewing agency will agree upon corrective measures to be taken to bring the facility into compliance. Although the Company has been subject to some fines, statements of deficiency and other corrective actions have not had a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company believes that the regulatory environment surrounding the long-term care industry has intensified, particularly for multi-facility for-profit operators. The Federal government has imposed intensive enforcement policies resulting in a significant increase in the number of inspections, citations of regulatory deficiencies, and other regulatory sanctions including terminations from the Medicare and Medicaid programs, bars on Medicare and Medicaid payments for new admissions and civil monetary penalties. There can be no assurance that future agency inspections and the actions taken by the reviewing agency based upon such inspections will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or its financial position.
Certificates of Need. All but one of the states in which the Company operates have adopted CON or similar laws that generally require that a state agency determine that a need exists prior to the construction of new facilities, the addition or reduction of licensed beds or services, the implementation of other changes, the incurrence of certain capital expenditures, and, in certain states, the approval of certain acquisitions and changes in ownership or the closure of a facility. Indiana’s CON program expired as of June 30, 1998. State CON approval is generally issued for a specific project or number of beds, specifies a maximum expenditure, is sometimes subject to an inflation adjustment, and requires implementation of the proposal within a specified period of time. Failure to obtain the necessary state approval can result in the inability of the facility to provide the service, operate the facility or complete the acquisition, addition or other change and can also result in adverse reimbursement action or the imposition of sanctions or other adverse action on the facility’s license.
Medicare. A substantial portion of the Company’s revenues are derived from the Medicare program. See “Sources of Revenues.” All of the Company’s skilled nursing facilities are certified Medicare providers. Medicare is a federally funded and administered health insurance program primarily designed for individuals who are age 65 or over and are entitled to receive Social Security benefits. The Medicare program consists of two parts. The first part, Part A, covers inpatient hospital services and certain services furnished by other institutional healthcare providers, such as skilled nursing facilities. The Medicare Part A program provides reimbursement for skilled nursing services provided to Medicare beneficiaries who are admitted to skilled nursing facilities following a minimum three-day stay in an acute care hospital. Part A covered services include skilled nursing care, rehabilitative therapy treatment, social services, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies in addition to other services. Part A coverage for services delivered in a skilled nursing care facility requires a three-day stay in an acute care hospital, is limited to a specified term (generally 100 days per “spell of illness”), requires beneficiaries to share some of the cost of covered services through the payment of a deductible and a co-insurance payment and requires beneficiaries to meet certain qualifying criteria. The second part of the Medicare program, Part B, covers the services of doctors, suppliers of medical items and services and various types of outpatient services. Part B services include physical, speech and occupational therapy and durable medical equipment and other ancillary services of the type provided by skilled nursing or acute care facilities. Part B services generally require beneficiaries to share the cost of covered services through a co-insurance payment. Prior to December 31, 1998 there were no limits on duration of coverage for Part B services.
Over the past several years, the Federal government has enacted three significant laws that dramatically affected the payment methodology through which skilled nursing facilities are reimbursed by the Medicare program. The first, the BBA, was enacted in August 1997 and significantly amended the reimbursement methodology of the Medicare program. In addition to offering new Medicare health plan options and increasing the penalties related to healthcare fraud and abuse, the BBA provided for a prospective payment system for skilled nursing facilities to be implemented for cost report periods beginning on or after July 1, 1998. Through December 31, 1998, the Medicare Part A program reimbursed the Company for covered services under a cost-based reimbursement system for its allowable direct and indirect costs.
Medicare PPS is being phased in over a period of four years, beginning with skilled nursing facility cost reporting periods ending on or after July 1, 1998. “New facilities,” which first received Medicare payment on or after October 1, 1995, moved to the federal per diem rate effective with the cost report periods beginning on or before July 1, 1998 and do not have a transitional period. All other facilities are being “phased-in” by a formula effective with the cost report period beginning on or after July 1, 1998 and through which Medicare PPS will blend together facility-specific rates and federal industry per diems according to the following schedule: Year One -- 75% facility-specific, 25% federal per diem; Year Two -- 50% each; Year Three -- 25% facility-specific, 75% federal per diem; Year Four -- 100% federal per diem. As a result of Medicare PPS being effective for cost reports beginning on or after July 1, 1998, Medicare PPS did not directly impact the Company’s Medicare reimbursement until the fiscal year beginning January 1, 1999. When fully implemented, Medicare PPS will result in each skilled nursing facility being reimbursed on a per diem rate (the “Federal per diem rate”) basis with acuity-based per diem rates being established as applicable to all Medicare Part A beneficiaries who are residents of the skilled nursing facility. The acuity-based per diem rates are determined by classifying each patient into one of forty-four resource utilization groups (“RUG’) using the data captured by completing the minimum data assessment (“MDS”) required by CMS. Each RUG classification is assigned its own Federal per diem rate by CMS. The Federal per diem rates will be all-inclusive rates through which the skilled nursing facility is reimbursed for its routine, ancillary and capital costs. During the transition period, the per diem rates for each facility consist of a blending of facility-specific costs and Federal per diem rates. The unadjusted Federal per diem rates to be applied to days of covered skilled nursing facility services furnished during the first year, the case mix classification system to be applied with respect to such services, and the factors to be applied in making area wage adjustments with respect to such services, are included in the Medicare PPS regulations. The Federal Medicare PPS rates were developed by CMS based on a blend of allowable costs from hospital-based and freestanding skilled nursing facility cost reports for reporting periods beginning in Federal Fiscal Year 1995 (i.e., October 1, 1994 -- September 30, 1995). The data used in developing the Federal rates incorporate an estimate of the amounts payable under Part B for covered skilled nursing facility services furnished during Federal Fiscal Year 1995 to
individuals who were residents of a facility and receiving Part A covered services. CMS updated costs to the first year of Medicare PPS using a skilled nursing facility market basket index standardized for facility differences in case-mix and for geographic variations in wages. Providers that received “new provider” exemptions from the routine cost limits were excluded from the database used to compute the federal payment rates. In addition, costs related to payments for exceptions to the routine cost limits are excluded from the database used to compute the federal payment rates. The facility-specific portion is based on each facility’s Medicare cost report for cost reporting periods beginning in Federal Fiscal Year 1995, including routine cost limit exception and exemption payments up to 150% of the routine cost limit, the allowable costs to be updated under Medicare PPS for the skilled nursing facility market basket minus 1% through 1999 and the full skilled nursing facility market basket after 1999. A variety of other adjustments are made in developing the Medicare PPS rates pursuant to the BBA and the regulations. As noted, except in the case of “new facilities,” in the first year of the transition to Medicare PPS, the per diem rates consisted of a blend of 25% federal per diem rates and 75% facility-specific costs. Thereafter, the facility-specific cost portion will decrease by 25% per year until in the fourth year, beginning January 1, 2002, the rate will be 100% Federal per diem rates. “New facilities” are on 100% Federal per diem rates for cost reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 1998.
The BBA also required skilled nursing facilities to institute “consolidated billing” for a variety of services and supplies. Under consolidated billing, the skilled nursing facility must submit all Medicare claims for all the Part A services and supplies that its residents receive, with the exception of certain services, including those provided by physicians. Payments for these services and supplies billed on a consolidated basis are made directly to the skilled nursing facility, whether or not the services were provided directly by the skilled nursing facility or by others under a contractual arrangement. The skilled nursing facility is responsible for paying the provider of the services or the supplier.
The BBA also implemented a prospective payment system for Part B services. Prior to January 1, 1999, the Company was reimbursed for Part B services on a cost reimbursement basis. Beginning January 1, 1999, Medicare Part B services began being reimbursed on a fee screen basis. These fee screens are revised by the CMS on an annual basis. The BBA also imposed an annual limitation on Part B therapy charges of $1,500 per beneficiary and imposed a future requirement to implement consolidated billing for Part B services.
On November 29, 1999, the second major law, the “Balanced Budget Refinement Act” of 1999 (the “BBRA”) was signed into law. The BBRA was designed to mitigate some of the effects of the BBA. The BBRA allowed skilled nursing facilities to elect transition to the full Federal per diem rate at the beginning of their cost reporting periods for cost periods beginning on or after January 1, 2000. Using the election allowed by the BBRA, the Company chose to move fourteen facilities to the full Federal per diem rate effective January 1, 2000. As a result, as of December 31, 2000, the Company used the full Federal per diem rate to calculate Medicare revenue at twenty-three of its skilled nursing facilities. Additionally, the BBRA increased the Federal per diem rates by 20% for fifteen RUG categories (three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories, twelve non-rehabilitative therapy RUG categories) beginning on April 1, 2000. These increased rates were to stay in effect until the later of (a) October 1, 2000 or (b) the date CMS implements a revised PPS system that more accurately reimburses the costs of caring for medically complex patients. The BBRA also provided for a four percent temporary increase in the Federal per diem rates for all RUG categories for a two-year period beginning October 1, 2000. The BBRA also excluded costs for certain supplies and services that were formerly required to be reimbursed by a skilled nursing facility’s PPS rate. The BBRA also eliminated the annual provider limitations on Part B therapy charges per beneficiary for calendar year 2000 and 2001.
In December 2000, the third major law, the Medicare, Medicaid, and State Child Health Insurance Program Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (“BIPA”) was enacted. BIPA temporarily increased the existing nursing rate component of the Federal per diem rate, for each RUG category, by 16.66% from April 1, 2001 through September 30, 2002. In addition, BIPA eliminated the 20% add-ons (provided by BBRA) for the three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories and substituted 6.7% add-ons for all fourteen rehabilitative therapy RUG categories. The 6.7% add-ons are scheduled to stay in effect until CMS implements a revised PPS system as contemplated by the BBRA. BIPA also extended the moratorium on the annual limitation on Part B therapy charges of $1,500 per beneficiary through calendar year 2002 and repealed the BBA requirement to implement consolidated billing for Part B services.
Certain of the increases in Medicare reimbursement for skilled nursing facilities provided for under the BBRA and BIPA are scheduled to expire on October 1, 2002. Unless Congress enacts new legislation, the loss of revenues associated with this occurrence could have a material adverse effect on the Company. If new legislation is not enacted, the Company estimates that its revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 would be reduced by approximately $37 per Medicare Part A patient day. The Company cannot provide assurances that Congress will act to renew the existing legislation; however, the Company does anticipate that it would take actions to reduce costs to offset a portion of this revenue reduction. At this time, the Company cannot predict the course of action likely to be selected by Congress or the impact of this issue on the Company’s net income for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Medicaid. Substantially all of the Company’s facilities participate in the Medicaid program of the states in which they are located. Medicaid is a state-administered reimbursement program for indigent patients financed by state funds (and in certain states, county funds) and matching federal funds. Although administered under Federal regulations, states have substantial flexibility to design programs and determine reimbursement rates, and as a result, individuals programs and reimbursement rates vary significantly from state to state. The Federal government retains the right to approve or disapprove individual state plans.
Until the enactment of the BBA, a Federal Medicaid statute, generally referred to as the “Boren Amendment,” required Medicaid programs to provide reimbursement rates that were reasonable and adequate to cover the costs that would be incurred by efficiently and economically operated facilities while providing services in conformity with state and federal laws, regulations and quality and safety standards. The BBA repealed the Boren Amendment effective October 1, 1997 and allowed the states to develop their own standards for determining Medicaid payment rates. In the past, several states’ healthcare provider organizations and providers have initiated litigation challenging the Medicaid reimbursement methodologies employed in such states, asserting that reimbursement payments are not adequate to reimburse an
efficiently operated facility for the costs of providing Medicaid covered services. The repeal of the Boren Amendment provides states with greater flexibility to amend individual state programs and potentially reduce state Medicaid payments to skilled nursing facilities. Medicaid covered services vary by state, but generally includes nursing care, room and board, and social services. Additionally, some states provide reimbursement for pharmaceuticals, rehabilitative therapy treatment and other services.
The Medicaid programs in the states in which the Company operates pay a per diem rate for providing services to Medicaid patients based on the facility’s reasonable allowable costs incurred in providing services, subject to cost ceilings applicable to patient care, other operating costs and capital costs. Some state Medicaid programs in which the Company currently operates currently include incentive allowances for providers whose costs are less than certain ceilings.
There are generally two types of Medicaid reimbursement rates: retrospective and prospective, although many states have adopted plans that have both retrospective and prospective features. A retrospective rate is determined after completion of a cost report by the service provider and is designed to reimburse expenses. Typically, an interim rate, based upon historical cost factors and inflation is paid by the state during the cost reporting period and a cost settlement is made following an audit of the filed cost report. Such adjustments may result in additional payments being made to the Company or in recoupments from the Company, depending on actual performance and the limitations within an individual state plan.
The more prevalent type of Medicaid reimbursement rate is the prospective rate. Under a prospective plan, the state sets its rate of payment for the period before services are rendered. Actual costs incurred by operators during a period are used by the state to establish the prospective rate for subsequent periods. The provider must accept the prospective rate as payment in full for all services rendered. Subsequent audits may provide a basis for the state program to retroactively recoup monies.
To date, adjustments from Medicaid audits have not had a material adverse effect on the Company. Although there can be no assurance that future adjustments will not have a material adverse effect on the Company, the Company believes that it has properly applied the various payment formulas and that it is not likely that audit adjustments would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Potential Healthcare Reform. In addition to extensive existing governmental healthcare regulation, there are numerous legislative and executive initiatives at the federal and state levels for comprehensive reforms affecting the payment for and availability of healthcare services. It is not clear at this time what proposals, if any, will be adopted or, if adopted, what effect such proposals would have on the Company’s business. Aspects of certain of these proposals, such as reductions in funding of Medicaid programs, or changes in the administration of Medicaid at the state level, could materially adversely affect the Company. Additionally, the BBA repealed the Boren Amendment effective October 1, 1997 and allows the states to develop their own standards for determining Medicaid payment rates. The BBA provides certain procedural restrictions on the states’ ability to amend state Medicaid programs by requiring that the states use a public process to establish payment methodologies including a public comment and review process. The repeal of the Boren Amendment provides states with greater flexibility to amend individual state programs and potentially reduce state Medicaid payments to skilled nursing facilities. There can be no assurance that currently proposed or future healthcare legislation or other changes in the administration or interpretation of governmental healthcare programs will not have an adverse effect on the Company.
Fee Splitting and Referrals. The Company is also subject to federal and state laws that govern financial and other arrangements between healthcare providers. Federal laws, as well as the laws of certain states, prohibit direct or indirect payments or fee splitting arrangements between healthcare providers that are designed to induce or encourage the referral of patients to, or the recommendation of, a particular provider for medical products and services. These laws include the federal “anti-kickback law” which prohibits, among other things, the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration in return for the referral of Medicare and Medicaid patients. A wide array of relationships and arrangements, including ownership interests in a company by persons in a position to refer patients and personal service agreements have, under certain circumstances, been alleged to violate these provisions. Certain discount arrangements may also violate these laws. Because of the broad reach of these laws, the federal government has published certain “safe harbors,” which set forth the requirements under which certain relationships will not be considered to violate such laws. A violation of the federal anti-kickback law could result in the loss of eligibility to participate in Medicare or Medicaid, or in criminal penalties. Violation of state anti-kickback laws could lead to loss of licensure, significant fines and other penalties.
Various federal and state laws regulate the relationship between healthcare providers and physicians, including employment or service contracts and investment relationships. These laws include the broadly worded fraud and abuse provisions of the Medicaid and Medicare statutes, which prohibit various transactions involving Medicaid or Medicare covered patients or services. In particular, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (“OBRA 93”) contains provisions which greatly expand the federal prohibition on physician referrals to entities with which they have a financial relationship. Effective January 1, 1995, OBRA 93 prohibits any physician with a financial relationship (defined as a direct or indirect ownership or investment interest or compensation arrangement) with an entity from making a referral for “designated health services” to that entity and prohibits that entity from billing for such services. “Designated health services” do not include skilled nursing services but do include many services which long-term care facilities provide to their patients, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, infusion therapy and enteral and parenteral nutrition. Various exceptions to the application of this law exist, including one which protects the payment of fair market compensation for the provision of personal services, so long as various requirements are met. Violations of these provisions may result in civil or criminal penalties for individuals or entities and/or exclusion from participation in the Medicaid and Medicare programs. Various state laws contain analogous provisions, exceptions and penalties. The Company believes that in the past it has been, and in the future it will be, able to arrange its business relationships so as to comply with these provisions.
Each of the Company’s long-term care facilities has at least one medical director that is a licensed physician. The medical directors may from time to time refer their patients to the Company’s facilities in their independent professional judgment. The physician anti-referral restrictions and prohibitions could, among other things, require the Company to modify its contractual arrangements with its medical directors or prohibit its medical directors from referring patients to the Company. From time to time, the Company has sought guidance as to the interpretation of these laws. However, there can be no assurance that such laws will ultimately be interpreted in a manner consistent with the practices of the Company.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) broadened the scope of fraud and abuse laws to include all health plans, whether or not they are reimbursed under Federal programs. HIPAA also mandated the adoption of federal regulations designed to (a) standardize transaction formats and billing codes for documenting health care services, determining eligibility and processing claims for payment; and (b) protect the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information. Final HIPAA regulations that standardize transactions and code sets were issued during the third quarter of 2000. The ultimate compliance date was subsequently modified by legislation to require health care providers and health plans to either comply with the HIPAA transaction code set standards beginning in October of 2002 or submit a written plan to the federal government by October of 2002 describing specific plans for compliance by October of 2003. The regulations do not require healthcare providers to submit claims electronically, but do require standard formatting for those that do so. The Company currently submits most claims electronically and expects to continue to do so. The Company is currently evaluating its plans for compliance by October of 2002 or submitting the required plan describing its plans for compliance by October of 2003.
Final HIPAA privacy regulations were published during the fourth quarter of 2000. However, on March 21, 2002, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released a proposed rule which if finally adopted would modify the regulations published during 2000. In general, the regulations apply to “protected health information”, which is defined as individually identifiable health information transmitted or maintained in any form or medium, excluding certain education records and student medical records. The privacy regulations seek to limit the use and disclosure of most paper and oral communications, as well as those in electronic form, regarding an individual’s past, present or future physical or mental health or condition, or relating to the provision of health care to the individual or payment of that health care. The regulations further impose requirements on health care providers to contractually obligate certain of their subcontractors who may receive protected health care information during the course of rendering services on behalf of such health care provider to abide by certain privacy requirements as well. In addition, the current HIPAA regulations provide that certain state privacy laws may not be preempted by HIPAA. Accordingly, the Company, in certain instances, will remain subject to various state privacy laws in jurisdictions in which it currently operates facilities. HIPAA provides for the imposition of civil and criminal penalties if protected health information is improperly disclosed. The Company must comply with the privacy regulations by April of 2003. Given the issuance of the recent proposed rulemaking, it is uncertain the extent to which the regulations that were published in 2000 will change. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the privacy regulations on its operations.
HIPAA’s security regulations have not been finalized. The proposed security regulations specify administrative procedures, physical safeguards, and technical services and mechanisms designed to ensure that protected health information remains secure. The proposed security rules contemplate a compliance date of 24 months after the effective date of the final rule published in the Federal Register, although it is possible that such compliance date will differ and could align with the compliance date for the privacy regulations depending on when the security regulations are ultimately finalized.
The Company is currently working in conjunction with its software vendors to evaluate the impact of HIPAA regulations on the Company’s systems and operating procedures. The Company has not yet completed its analysis or its estimate of the expected costs of compliance with the HIPAA regulations. There can be no assurances that compliance with HIPAA regulations will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or its financial position.
COMPETITION
The long-term care industry is highly competitive. The Company competes with other providers of long-term care on the basis of the scope and quality of services offered, the rate of positive medical outcomes, cost-effectiveness and the reputation and appearance of its long-term care facilities. The Company also competes in recruiting qualified healthcare personnel, in acquiring and developing additional facilities and in obtaining CONs. The Company’s current and potential competitors include national, regional and local long-term care providers, some of whom have substantially greater financial and other resources and may be more established in their communities than the Company. The Company also s competition from assisted living facility operators as well as providers of home healthcare. In addition, certain competitors are operated by not-for-profit organizations and similar businesses which can finance capital expenditures and acquisitions on a tax-exempt basis or receive charitable contributions unavailable to the Company.
In general, consolidation in the long-term care industry has resulted in the Company being d with larger competitors, many of whom have significant financial and other resources. The Company expects that this continuing consolidation may increase the competition for the acquisition of long-term care facilities.
The Company believes that state regulations which require a CON before a new long-term care facility can be constructed or additional licensed beds can be added to existing facilities reduce the possibility of overbuilding and promote higher utilization of existing facilities. CON legislation is currently in place in all states in which the Company operates or expects to operate with the exception of Indiana where the CON program expired as of June 30, 1998. Several of the states in which the Company operates have imposed moratoriums on the issuance of CONs for new skilled nursing facility beds. A relaxation of CON requirements could lead to an increase in competition.
In addition, as cost containment measures have reduced occupancy rates at acute care hospitals, a number of these hospitals have converted portions of their facilities into subacute units. In the states in which the Company currently operates, these conversions are subject to state CON regulations. The Company believes that the application of the new Medicare PPS rules have made such conversions less desirable.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 2001, the Company employed approximately 8,000 facility-based personnel on a full- and part-time basis. The Company’s corporate and regional staff consisted of 159 persons as of such date. Approximately 730 employees at nine of the Company’s facilities are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Although the Company believes that it maintains good relationships with its employees and the unions that represent certain of its employees, it cannot predict the impact of continued or increased union representation or organizational activities on its future operations.
The Company believes that the attraction and retention of dedicated, skilled and experienced nursing and other professional staff has been and will continue to be a critical factor in the successful growth of the Company. The Company believes that its wage rates and benefit packages for nursing and other professional staff are commensurate with market rates and practices.
The Company competes with other healthcare providers in attracting and retaining qualified or skilled personnel. The long-term care industry has, at times, experienced shortages of qualified personnel. A continued shortage of nurses or other trained personnel or general economic inflationary pressures may require the Company to enhance its wage and benefits package in order to compete with other employers. There can be no assurance that the Company’s labor costs will not increase or, if they do, that they can be matched by corresponding increases in private-payor revenues or governmental reimbursement. Failure by the Company to attract and retain qualified employees, to control its labor costs or to match increases in its labor expenses with corresponding increases in revenues could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
INSURANCE
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company implemented a general and professional liability insurance program that, for the period from September 1, 1998 to August 31, 2001, limited the Company’s self-retention risk for this program to a maximum of $25,000 per year. The long-term care industry has seen the cost of maintaining traditional professional liability insurance increase significantly over the past two years, especially in the State of Florida. Most insurance companies are unwilling to underwrite new professional liability policies in the State of Florida. In May 2001, tort reform legislation was enacted in Florida. This legislation provided caps on punitive damages, limits to add-on legal fees, stricter rules of evidence and a shorter statute of limitations period. Given the tremendous increase in professional liability premiums and the tort reform legislation that was enacted in the State of Florida in May 2001, the Company concluded that it would be more cost effective to assume a higher level of retained risk for professional liability claims. As a result, the Company implemented a new general and professional liability program, effective September 1, 2001, which resulted in the Company maintaining an unaggregated self-insured retention of $2,000,000 per occurrence for locations outside of Florida and completely retaining risk at the Florida facilities. The Company maintains an accrual for incurred but not reported claims. The amount of the accrual is determined through an estimation process that uses information from both the Company’s records as well as industry data. The Company uses an independent actuary to help estimate the required general and professional liability accrual. Factors reviewed include the frequency of expected claims, the average cost per claim, emerging industry trends, changes in regulatory environment (such as the recently enacted Florida tort reform legislation) and the expected effect of various operational and risk management initiatives. At this time, the Company estimates that, effective September 1, 2001, its annual cost for professional and general liability insurance for existing facilities will increase from approximately $2,500,000 under the prior program to $6,500,000 under the new program. The Company will continue to evaluate its insurance accrual requirements on a quarterly basis. Required adjustments to the Company’s general and professional liability accrual will be recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs. There can be no assurances that the recent Florida tort reform legislation will have a positive impact on claims activity, that the coverage limits of the Company’s insurance program will be adequate or that insurance will continue to be available to the Company in the future. (See Note M to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)

The Company has never declared or paid any dividends on its common stock since its formation in 1996. The Company does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its Common Stock for the foreseeable future and intends to retain all of its earnings for reinvestment in the operations and activities of the Company. Any future decision as to the payment of dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company’s ability to pay dividends is also limited by the terms of current (and possibly future) lease and financing arrangements that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to distribute funds to the Company.

ITEM 7.
Harborside Healthcare Corporation, through its subsidiaries, is a leading provider of high-quality long-term care and specialty medical services in the eastern United States. Harborside Healthcare Corporation (on a consolidated basis, “Harborside” or the “Company”) has focused on establishing strong local market positions with high-quality facilities in four principal geographic regions: the Southeast (Florida), the Midwest (Ohio and Indiana), New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island) and the Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey and Maryland). As of December 31, 2001, the Company operated 51 facilities (18 owned, 32 leased and one managed) with a total of 6,274 licensed beds. As described in Note A to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included elsewhere in this filing, the Company accounts for its investment in one of its owned facilities using the equity method of accounting. The Company provides a broad continuum of medical services including: (i) traditional skilled nursing care and (ii) specialty medical services, including a variety of subacute care programs such as orthopedic rehabilitation, CVA/stroke care, cardiac recovery, pulmonary rehabilitation and wound care, as well as distinct programs for the provision of care to Alzheimer’s and hospice patients. As part of its subacute services, the Company provides physical, occupational and speech rehabilitation therapy services at Company-operated facilities. Through September 1999, the Company also provided rehabilitation therapy services under contracts with non-affiliated long-term care facilities through a wholly-owned subsidiary. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company terminated its contracts with non-affiliated facilities and ceased providing therapy services to non-affiliated facilities. (See Note P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
The Company was created in March 1996, in anticipation of an initial public offering (the “IPO”), in order to combine under its control the operations of various long-term care facilities and ancillary businesses (the “Predecessor Entities”) which had operated since 1988. The Company completed the IPO on June 14, 1996 and issued 3,600,000 shares of common stock at $11.75 per share. The owners of the Predecessor Entities contributed their interests in such Predecessor Entities to the Company and received 4,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
On April 15, 1998, Harborside entered into a Merger Agreement with HH Acquisition Corp. (“MergerCo”), an entity organized for the sole purpose of effecting a merger on behalf of Investcorp S.A., certain of its affiliates and certain other international investors (the “New Investors”). On August 11, 1998, MergerCo merged with and into Harborside, with Harborside Healthcare Corporation as the surviving corporation. As a result of the transaction, and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the New Investors acquired approximately 91% of the post-merger common stock of Harborside. The remaining 9% of the common stock was retained by existing shareholders, including management. As a result of the merger, Harborside shares were de-listed from the New York Stock Exchange.
The merger was approved by a majority of the Company’s shareholders at a special meeting held on August 11, 1998. Each share not retained by existing shareholders was converted into $25 in cash, representing in the aggregate, cash payments of approximately $184 million. Holders of outstanding stock options of the Company converted the majority of their options into cash at $25 per underlying share (less applicable exercise price and withholding taxes) with aggregate payments of approximately $8 million.
In connection with the transaction and prior to the merger, the New Investors made cash common equity contributions of $158.5 million, net of issuance costs, to MergerCo, and MergerCo obtained gross proceeds of $99.5 million through the issuance of 11% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (“Discount Notes”) due 2008 and $40 million through the issuance of 13.5% Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) mandatorily redeemable in 2010. In connection with the merger, Harborside also entered into a new $250 million collateralized credit facility. In the third quarter of 1998, Harborside recorded a charge to income from operations of approximately $37 million (approximately $29 million after taxes) for direct and other costs related to the Merger transaction. In connection with the merger and the related refinancings, the Company exercised purchase options for seven facilities which had been financed through synthetic leases.
In March 2001, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Restructuring Agreement") with Investcorp S.A. and the holders of more than a majority in interest of the Company's Discount Notes and Preferred Stock for purposes of implementing a restructuring of the Discount Notes and Preferred Stock. The Restructuring Agreement contemplated that the Company would offer to exchange for each $1,000 amount at maturity of outstanding Discount Notes a combination of the following: (1)0.5899118 of a new 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Note due 2007 (the "New Notes") each having a principal amount at maturity equal to $1,000 and an original issue price of $685.67 (assuming that the New Notes were issued on May 4, 2001), (2) $88.2353 in cash and (3) common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.9 shares of its Class A Common Stock. The Company would also offer to exchange common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.7 shares of its Class A Common Stock for each $1,000 liquidation preference of Preferred Stock (based on the aggregate liquidation preference to be outstanding on May 1, 2001) plus any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock after May 1, 2001. In conjunction with the restructuring proposal, the Company would solicit consents from holders of outstanding Discount Notes and Preferred Stock to amendments to the Indenture governing the Discount Notes and to the Certificate of Designation governing the Preferred Stock that would eliminate or modify certain restrictive covenants and other provisions contained in the Indenture and the Certificate of Designation and would substantially eliminate the preferences of the Preferred Stock, including the reduction of the liquidation preference from $1,000 to $0.01 per share and the elimination of the right of holders to be paid dividends on shares of Preferred Stock. Also, the Company would issue to Investcorp S.A. (or one or
more of its affiliates or designees) up to 15,000 shares of a new series of 13% convertible exchangeable preferred stock (the "New Preferred Stock") and 1,854,422 common stock purchase warrants for a total purchase price of up to $15,000,000.
On April 6, 2001 the Company initiated the exchange offer and consent solicitation contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement. On May 10, 2001, the Company completed the exchange offer and consent solicitation, thereby implementing each of the elements of the Restructuring Agreement. All of the outstanding Discount Notes and 99.96% of the shares of Preferred Stock were tendered and exchanged in the exchange offer. As a result of the exchange, (1) the Company has an aggregate principal amount at maturity of $100,276,000 of New Notes outstanding and an aggregate liquidation preference of $15,000,000 (as of May 10, 2001) of New Preferred Stock outstanding, (2) warrants were issued to holders of Discount Notes, to holders of Preferred Stock, and to Investcorp S.A. representing the right to purchase an aggregate of approximately 15%, 5% and 15%, respectively, of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which will initially be convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (3) the Company paid $15,000,000 in cash as partial consideration for the tendered Discount Notes.
The reduction in the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock was completed on May 10, 2001, as contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $57,595,000 to $576 and the amount of the reduction, net of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Preferred Stock (approximately $1,011,000 at May 10, 2001), was directly transferred to the Company's Accumulated Deficit account. With the exchange of the New Notes for the Discount Notes (the "Note Exchange"), the carrying value of the accreted principal of the Discount Notes was reduced to $68,890,000, and the amount of the reduction, net of the aggregate cash payment of $15,000,000, was directly transferred to the Company's Long-term Accrued Interest account. Subsequent to their issuance, the carrying amount of the New Notes increases as the result of accretion and results in a corresponding decrease in the carrying amount of Long-term Accrued Interest. Interest expense on the New Notes is recognized such that a constant effective interest rate is applied to the aggregate carrying amount of the New Notes and Long-term Accrued Interest for all periods between the issuance date and the maturity date of the New Notes.
In connection with an amendment to the Company's revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") and the implementation of the Restructuring Agreement, the Company incurred a non-recurring charge of $9,045,000. The charge resulted from the write-off of approximately $1,500,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained, the write-off of approximately $3,400,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Discount Notes, and the recognition of various investment advisory, legal and other fees associated with these events of $4,145,000.
The New Notes were issued at a discount and interest on the New Notes accretes until August 1, 2004. Cash interest payments will be paid semi-annually in arrears beginning on February 1, 2005 based on the fully accreted value of the New Notes and a 12% cash interest payment rate. The New Notes mature on August 1, 2007. The New Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008. The holders of the New Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends quarterly in arrears beginning August 1, 2001 and payable in additional shares of New Preferred Stock. Warrants to purchase a total of 4,326,641 shares of common stock at $0.01 per share were issued on May 10, 2001.
REVENUES
The Company’s total net revenues include net patient service revenues, and beginning in 1995, rehabilitation therapy service revenues from contracts with non-affiliated long-term care facilities until the third quarter of 1999 when these contracts were terminated. (See Note P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report). The Company derives its net patient service revenues primarily from private pay sources, the federal Medicare program for certain elderly and disabled patients and state Medicaid programs for indigent patients. The Company’s total net revenues are influenced by a number of factors, including: (i) the licensed bed capacity of its facilities; (ii) the occupancy rates of its facilities; (iii) the payor mix of its facilities and the rates of reimbursement among payor categories (private and other, Medicare and Medicaid); and (iv) the extent to which subacute and other specialty medical and ancillary services are utilized by the patients and paid for by the respective payment sources. Private net patient service revenues are recorded at established per diem billing rates. Net patient service revenues to be reimbursed under contracts with third-party payors, primarily the Medicare and Medicaid programs, are recorded at amounts estimated to be realized under these contractual arrangements. The Company employs specialists to monitor reimbursement rules, policies and related developments in order to comply with all reporting requirements and to assist the Company in receiving reimbursements.
The table set forth below identifies the percentage of the Company’s total net revenues attributable to each of its payor sources for each of the periods indicated. The increase in Medicare revenues as a percentage of total revenues during fiscal 2000 and fiscal 2001 is primarily the result of increases in the Company’s average Medicare Part A per diem rate in those years resulting from changes to the Medicare payment system. The Federal government implemented the Medicare Prospective Payment System (“PPS”) effective January 1, 1999. Implementation of PPS was effective for all of the Company’s facilities beginning January 1, 1999 and caused the Company’s average Medicare Part A per diem rate to decrease from $397 per day in 1998 to $290 per day in 1999. On November 29, 1999, the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 (the “BBRA”) was enacted. The BBRA allowed skilled nursing facilities to elect transition to the full Federal per diem rate at the beginning of their cost reporting periods for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2000. Using this election the Company chose to move fourteen facilities to the full Federal per diem rate effective January 1, 2000. Additionally, the BBRA increased the Federal per diem rates by 20% for fifteen RUG categories (three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories, twelve non-rehabilitative therapy RUG categories) beginning April 1, 2000. The BBRA also provided a temporary four percent increase in the Federal per diem rates for all RUG categories for a two-year period beginning October 1, 2000. In December 2000, the Medicare, Medicaid, and State Child Health Insurance Program Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (“BIPA”) was enacted. BIPA temporarily increased the existing nursing rate component of the Federal per diem rate, for each RUG category, by 16.66% effective April 1, 2001. In
addition, BIPA eliminated the 20% add-ons (provided by the BBRA) for the three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories and substituted 6.7% add-ons for all fourteen rehabilitative therapy RUG categories. The 6.7% add-ons are scheduled to stay in effect until CMS implements a revised PPS system as contemplated by the BBRA. Primarily as the result of the effects of the BBRA, the Company’s average Medicare Part A payment rate increased from $290 per Medicare patient day during 1999 to $322 per Medicare patient day during 2000. Primarily as the result of the effects of BIPA, the Company’s average Medicare Part A payment rate increased from $322 per Medicare patient day during 2000 to $340 per Medicare patient day during 2001.

(1) Total net revenues exclude net revenues of the Larkin Chase Center which is owned by Bowie Center Limited Partnership (“Bowie L.P.”). The Company owns a 75% partnership interest in Bowie L.P. but records its investment in Bowie L.P. using the equity method of accounting. See Note A to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing.
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Company’s facility operating expenses consist primarily of payroll and employee benefits related to nursing, rehabilitation therapy services, housekeeping and dietary services provided to patients, as well as maintenance and administration of the facilities. Other significant facility operating expenses include the cost of medical and pharmacy supplies, food, utilities, insurance and taxes. The Company’s general and administrative expenses include all costs associated with its regional and corporate operations.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company are based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere within this report, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies. We rely on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Net patient service revenues to be reimbursed by contracts with third-party payors, primarily the Medicare and Medicaid programs, are recorded at the amount estimated to be realized under these contractual arrangements. The Company separately estimates revenues due from each third-party with which it has a contractual arrangement and records anticipated settlements with these parties in the contractual period during which services were rendered. The amounts actually reimbursable under Medicare and Medicaid are determined by filing cost reports, which are then audited and generally retroactively adjusted by the payor. Legislative changes to state or Federal reimbursement systems may also retroactively affect recorded revenues. Changes in estimated revenues due in connection with Medicare and Medicaid may be recorded by the Company subsequent to the year of origination and prior to final settlement based on improved estimates. Such adjustments and final settlements with third-party payors, which could materially and adversely affect the Company, are reflected in operations at the time of the adjustment or settlement.
PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from third party payors (the Medicare and Medicaid programs, other governmental programs, managed care companies and commercial insurance companies) as well as amounts due from private individuals. Estimated provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded to the extent that it is probable that a portion or all of a particular account receivable will not be collected. We estimate the provision for doubtful accounts based on a number of factors including payor type, historical collection patterns and the age of the receivable. Changes in estimates for particular accounts receivable are recorded in the period in which the change occurs.
IMPAIRMENT OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment and intangible assets on a quarterly basis. The Company’s review is undertaken to determine if current facts and circumstances suggest that the assets have been impaired or that the life of the asset needs to be changed. As part of its review, the Company considers a number of factors including local market developments, changes in the regulatory environment, historical financial performance, recent operating results and projected future cash flows. Any impairment would be recognized in operating results if a diminution in value considered to be other than temporary were to occur. The Company recognized an adjustment to the carrying value of its goodwill during the year ended December 31, 1999 as a result of the termination of its contract
therapy business. (See Note P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.) During the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, the Company recognized adjustments to the carrying value of its deferred financing costs in connection with amendments to the Company’s Credit Facility and the early termination of a capital lease. (See Notes H and I to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
INSURANCE RESERVES
The Company retains a significant amount of self-insurance risk for its employee health benefits and workers compensation programs, and beginning on September 1, 2001, its general liability and professional liability risks. The Company maintains stop-loss insurance such that the Company’s liability for health insurance and workers’ compensation losses is limited. At the end of each accounting period, the Company records an accrued expense for (a) estimated health benefit claims incurred but not reported and (b) estimated workers’ compensation claims incurred but not reported. The Company estimates these accruals based on a number of factors including historical experience, industry trends, recent claims history, programs implemented to control claims, and actuarial reports. These accruals are by necessity based on estimates and are subject to ongoing revision as conditions change and as new data presents itself. Adjustments to estimated liabilities are recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs.
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company implemented a general and professional liability insurance program which, for the period from September 1, 1998 to August 31, 2001, limited the Company’s self-retention risk for this program to a maximum of $25,000 per year. The long-term care industry has seen the cost of maintaining traditional professional liability insurance increase significantly over the past two years, especially in the State of Florida. Most insurance companies are unwilling to underwrite new professional liability policies in the State of Florida. In May 2001, tort reform legislation was enacted in Florida. This legislation provides caps on punitive damages, limits to add-on legal fees, stricter rules of evidence and a shorter statute of limitations period. Given this tremendous increase in professional liability premiums and the tort reform legislation that was enacted in the State of Florida in May 2001, the Company concluded that it would be more cost effective to assume a higher level of retained risk for professional liability claims. As a result, the Company implemented a new general and professional liability program, effective September 1, 2001, which resulted in the Company maintaining an unaggregated self-insured retention of $2,000,000 per occurrence for locations outside of Florida and completely retaining risk at the Florida facilities. The Company maintains an accrual for incurred but not reported claims. The amount of the accrual is determined through an estimation process that uses information from both the Company’s records as well as industry data. The Company uses an independent actuary to help estimate the required general and professional liability accrual. Factors reviewed include the frequency of expected claims, the average cost per claim, emerging industry trends, changes in regulatory environment (such as the recently enacted Florida tort reform legislation) and the expected effect of various operational and risk management initiatives. The Company will continue to evaluate its insurance accrual requirements on a quarterly basis. Required adjustments to the Company’s general and professional liability accrual will be recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs. (See Note M to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 141, Business Combinations. SFAS 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 141 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is effective January 1, 2002. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill. SFAS 142 also requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. As of December 31, 2001, the Company’s intangible assets included no assets that will be classified as goodwill effective January 1, 2002.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 143 in their fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS 143 requires that obligations associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset be recorded as a liability when these obligations are incurred, with the amount of the liability initially measured at fair value. Upon recognizing a liability, an entity must capitalize the cost by recognizing an increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset, accrete the liability over time to its present value each period, and depreciate the capitalized cost over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, the obligation is either settled for its recorded amount or a gain or loss is recognized.
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 144 in their fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale, revises the rules regarding reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business and requires expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in discontinued operations in the periods in which the losses were incurred. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 144 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2000
Total Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased by $24,066,000 or 7.5%, from $322,672,000 in 2000 to $346,738,000 in 2001. The Company began operating a leased facility in Marietta, Ohio on November 1, 2001. This facility generated approximately $1,250,000 of revenues during the year ended December 31, 2001. Most of the remaining increase in total revenues was the result of higher average revenues per patient day. The average occupancy rate at all of the Company’s facilities decreased from 90.1% for the year ended December 31, 2000 to 88.9% for the year ended December 31, 2001. Average net patient service revenues (including ancillary services) per patient day at the Company’s facilities increased from $164 for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $179 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The Company’s average Medicare Part A per diem rate increased from $322 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $340 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2001, while the Company’s average per diem Medicaid rate increased from $127 for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $134 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 (“BBRA”) temporarily increased the Federal per diem Medicare Part A rates by 20% for fifteen RUG categories (three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories, twelve non-rehabilitative RUG categories) beginning on April 1, 2000. These increased rates will stay in effect until the date on which the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”), previously known as the Health Care Financing Administration, implements a revised PPS system that more accurately reimburses the costs of caring for medically complex patients. The Company believes that it is unlikely that a new PPS system will be implemented prior to October 1, 2002. The BBRA also provided for a four percent temporary increase in the Federal per diem Medicare Part A rates for all RUG categories for a two-year period beginning October 1, 2000. In December 2000, the Medicare, Medicaid, and State Child Health Insurance Program Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (“BIPA”) was enacted. BIPA temporarily increased the existing nursing rate component of the Federal per diem Medicare Part A rate, for each RUG category, by 16.66% effective April 1, 2001 through September 30, 2002. In addition, BIPA eliminated the 20% add-ons (provided by the BBRA) for the three rehabilitative therapy RUG categories and substituted 6.7% add-ons for all fourteen rehabilitative therapy RUG categories.
Primarily as the result of the Medicare rate increases implemented on April 1, 2000 and 2001, the Company’s average Medicare Part A payment rate increased from $322 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $340 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2001. The Company’s quality mix of private, Medicare and insurance revenues was 50.8% for the year ended December 31, 2000 as compared to 53.3% for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased by $22,414,000, or 8.6%, from $259,780,000 in 2000 to $282,194,000 in 2001. Approximately $1,000,000 of this expense increase resulted from the operation of the Company’s Marietta, Ohio facility commencing on November 1, 2001. Most of the remaining increase in operating expenses in 2001 was the result of higher expenditures for employee benefit costs and temporary nursing personnel. The increase in employee benefits costs are driven primarily by higher costs associated with maintaining the Company’s health insurance plan. The Company’s health insurance plan expense increased by $2,060,000 from 2000 to 2001. Consistent with other long-term care providers, the Company continues to find it difficult to recruit and retain employees, most notably nursing personnel. As a result of these difficulties, the Company has been forced to rely more heavily on temporary nursing personnel. The expense associated with temporary nursing personnel increased by $3,108,000, or 29.6%, from 2000 to 2001.
General and Administrative; Service Charges Paid to Former Affiliate. General and administrative expenses increased by $1,050,000 or 5.8%, from $17,993,000 in 2000 to $19,043,000 in 2001. The Company reimburses a former affiliate for data processing services provided to the Company. During 2000, such reimbursements totaled $1,083,000 compared to $979,000 in 2001.
Amortization of Prepaid Management Fees. Amortization of prepaid management fees was $1,200,000 in 2000 and 2001. (See Note O to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased from $10,210,000 in 2000 to $9,355,000 in 2001. Depreciation expense decreased primarily as the result of the refinancing of the Company’s four Cleveland-area facilities. On September 27, 2000, the Company terminated its capital leases for these properties and entered into new operating leases for each of the Cleveland facilities. (See Note I to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.) As a result of this transaction, the Company’s annual depreciation and interest expense decreased by approximately $1,400,000 and $4,100,000, respectively, while the Company’s annual rent expense increased by approximately $5,900,000. The Company’s amortization expense decreased in 2001 primarily as a result of the write-off of deferred financing costs in September 2000 and the first half of 2001. The write-off of deferred financing costs in the first half of 2001 were made in connection with amendments to the Company’s bank credit facility and the financial restructuring completed in the second quarter of 2001.
Facility Rent. Facility rent expense increased by $4,614,000 from $24,275,000 in 2000 to $28,889,000 in 2001. Most of the increase in rent expense occurred as a result of the Company terminating capital leases for four facilities in the Cleveland area in September 2000 and entering into four new operating leases for these facilities.
Financial Restructuring Costs.In connection with an amendment to the Company’s bank credit facility and the financial restructuring completed during the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded non-recurring charges totaling $9,045,000. The charges resulted from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to obtaining the Company’s bank credit facility and issuing its Discount Notes, and the
recognition of various investment advisory, legal and other fees associated with completing the amendment to the bank credit facility and the financial restructuring. (See Note H to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Facility Reorganization Costs. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company incurred a non-recurring charge of $1,080,000 in connection with its decision to revise the marketing approach for facilities operated through subsidiaries in Florida. The Company determined that a local community-based marketing approach would better serve the needs of these facilities. The marketing approach stresses ties to the local community and required renaming these facilities in order to emphasize this approach. In connection with this effort, the Company also restructured certain of its subsidiaries effective October 1, 2001. In order to implement this strategy, the Company incurred non-recurring marketing, legal and other expenses.
Interest Expense, net. Interest expense, net, decreased from $21,675,000 in 2000 to $11,945,000 in 2001. This decrease is the result of the refinancing of the Cleveland-area facilities in September 2000 and the restructuring of the Company’s Discount Notes completed in May 2001. The termination of the Cleveland-area capital leases reduced the Company’s interest expense by approximately $4,100,000 on an annual basis. The restructuring of the Discount Notes reduced both the carrying amount of the debt and its effective interest rate. (See Note H to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Income Tax Expense. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company’s deferred income tax assets were eliminated (through an adjustment to the related valuation allowance) due to uncertainty regarding future realization of these assets, resulting in income tax expense of $14,322,000 for that year. For the year ended December 31, 2001, income tax expense (all related to state income taxes) was $225,000. (See Note K to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Net Loss. The Company's net loss decreased from $36,706,000 in 2000 to $16,902,000 in 2001.
Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1999
Total Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased by $22,057,000 or 7.3%, from $300,615,000 in 1999 to $322,672,000 in 2000. The increase in total revenues from 1999 to 2000 was primarily the result of higher average revenues per patient day. The average occupancy rate at all of the Company’s facilities decreased from 90.9% for the year ended December 31, 1999 to 90.1% for the year ended December 31, 2000. Average net patient service revenues per patient day at the Company’s facilities increased from $152 for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $164 for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company’s average Medicare Part A per diem rate increased from $290 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $322 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2000, while the Company’s average per diem Medicaid rate increased from $120 for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $127 for the year ended December 31, 2000. In accordance with provisions of the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999, the Company elected to have fourteen of its facilities waive their remaining transition period available under Medicare’s current prospective payment reimbursement system. Effective January 1, 2000, these fourteen facilities began to be reimbursed at the Federal per diem payment rate for paid Medicare days. Additionally, the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 temporarily increased the Federal per diem rates by 20% for fifteen RUG categories beginning on April 1, 2000. These increased rates will stay in effect until the date on which the CMS implements a revised PPS system that more accurately reimburses the costs of caring for medically complex patients. Primarily as the result of electing to move fourteen facilities to the Federal per diem rate and the temporary Medicare rate increases implemented on April 1, 2000, the Company’s average Medicare Part A payment rate increased from $290 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $322 per Medicare patient day for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company’s quality mix of private, Medicare and insurance revenues was 50.7% for the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to 50.8% for the year ended December 31, 2000.
Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased by $10,985,000, or 4.4%, from $248,795,000 in 1999 to $259,780,000 in 2000. The overall increase in operating expenses in 2000 was primarily the result of higher expenditures for employee benefit costs and temporary nursing personnel. The increase in employee benefits costs are driven primarily by higher costs associated with maintaining the Company’s health insurance plan. The Company’s health insurance plan expense increased by $3,700,000 from 1999 to 2000. Consistent with other long-term care providers, the Company continues to find it difficult to recruit and retain employees, most notably nursing personnel. As a result of these difficulties, the Company has been forced to rely more heavily on temporary nursing personnel. The expense associated with temporary nursing personnel increased by $2,156,000, or 25.8% from the year ended December 31, 1999 to the year ended December 31, 2000.
Facility operating expenses for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2000 include a non-recurring charge in the amount of $575,000. The charge was incurred in connection with the Company’s participation in a shared collateral arrangement designed to decrease the Company’s required letter of credit commitments for it’s high deductible workers compensation insurance policy. The Company posted a letter of credit equal to approximately 15% of the estimated workers compensation claim requirements as collateral for a bond in favor of the insurance company that underwrote the high deductible policy. The program to purchase the bonds as a substitute for the letters of credit was created for a select number of companies who agreed to jointly and severally share the potential risk of loss. During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company was notified that one of the participants in the shared collateral pool caused a default under the shared collateral agreement in connection with a bankruptcy filing. The insurance carrier responded by drawing on all of the pledged letters of credit. The Company has terminated its participation in the shared collateral program in connection with its workers compensation policy, and accordingly, the Company will incur no additional charges in connection with that program.
General and Administrative; Service Charges Paid to Affiliate. General and administrative expenses increased by $185,000 or 1.0%, from $17,808,000 in 1999 to $17,993,000 in 2000. The Company reimburses a former affiliate for data processing services provided to the Company. During 1999, such reimbursements totaled $1,173,000 compared to $1,083,000 in 2000.
Amortization of Prepaid Management Fees. Amortization of prepaid management fees (paid in connection with the Merger) was $1,200,000 in 1999 and 2000. (See Note O to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased slightly from $10,249,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $10,210,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. The effect of an increase in depreciation expense was entirely offset by a decrease in amortization expense. The increase in depreciation expense was the result of assets placed in service during late 1999 and 2000. The decrease in amortization expense was the result of deferred financing costs written-off in connection with a reduction in funds committed through the Company’s bank credit facility in 2000 and goodwill written off in connection with the Company’s restructuring of its therapy services business during 1999. (See Notes H and Q to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Facility Rent. Facility rent expense increased by $1,881,000 from $22,394,000 in 1999 to $24,275,000 in 2000. Most of the increase in rent expense ($1,500,000) occurred as a result of the Company terminating capital leases for four facilities in the Cleveland area in September 2000 and entering into four new operating leases for these facilities. (See Note I to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Restructuring Costs. In connection with restructuring the Company’s therapy services business, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $5,745,000 during the third quarter of 1999. (See Note P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Loss on the termination of capital lease. In connection with the termination of a capital lease during the third quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $8,900,000. The principal components of this charge included the write-off of capital leased assets in excess of the related capital lease obligation ($5,700,000) and the write-off of deferred financing costs ($1,800,000) related to the Company’s bank credit facility. (See Note I to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Interest Expense, net. Interest expense, net, increased from $20,895,000 in 1999 to $21,675,000 in 2000. This increase was the result of higher outstanding balances in 2000 with respect to the Company’s 11% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (the “Discount Notes”).
Income Tax Expense (Benefit). As a result of the loss incurred in 1999, income tax benefit of $10,304,000 was recognized in that year. In 2000, deferred taxes were eliminated, due to uncertainty regarding future realization of these assets, resulting in income tax expense of $14,322,000.
Net Loss. Net loss was $17,601,000 in 1999 as compared to a loss of $36,706,000 in 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s primary cash needs are for acquisitions, capital expenditures, working capital, debt service and general corporate purposes. The Company has historically financed these requirements primarily through a combination of internally generated cash flow, mortgage financing and operating leases, in addition to funds borrowed under a credit facility. The Company’s existing leased facilities are leased from either the owner of the facilities, from a real estate investment trust which has purchased the facilities from the owner, or through synthetic lease borrowings. The Company’s existing facility leases generally require it to make monthly lease payments and pay all property operating costs. The Company generally negotiates leases which provide for extensions beyond the initial lease term and an option to purchase the leased facility. In some cases, the option to purchase the leased facility is at a price based on the fair market value of the facility at the time the option is exercised. In other cases, the lease for the facility sets forth a fixed purchase option price which the Company believes is equal to the fair market value of the facility at the inception date of such lease, thus allowing the Company to realize the value appreciation of the facility while maintaining financial flexibility.
In connection with the leveraged recapitalization completed on August 11, 1998, the Company obtained gross proceeds of $99.5 million through the issuance of 11% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (the “Discount Notes”) due 2008 and $40 million through the issuance of 13.5% Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) mandatorily redeemable in 2010. Interest on the Discount Notes accreted at 11% per annum until August 1, 2003 and then was to become payable in cash, semi-annually in arrears, beginning on February 1, 2004. Dividends on the Preferred Stock were payable, at the option of the Company, in additional shares of the Preferred Stock until August 1, 2003. After that date dividends may only be paid in cash. In August 1998, the Company also entered into a $250 million collateralized credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The terms of the Credit Facility originally provided up to $75 million on a revolving credit basis plus an additional $175 million initially funded on a revolving basis that would convert to a term loan on an annual basis on each anniversary of the closing. During the first four years of the Credit Facility, any or all of the full $250 million of availability under the Credit Facility could be used for synthetic lease financings. Proceeds of loans under the facility may be used for acquisitions, working capital purposes, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. Interest is based on either LIBOR or prime rates of interest (plus applicable margins) at the election of the Company. The Credit Facility contains various financial and other restrictive covenants and limits aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility to a predetermined multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”).
During the first quarter of 1999, the Company determined that its anticipated financial results for that quarter would cause the Company to be out of compliance with certain financial covenants of the Credit Facility. The Company’s reduced level of EBITDA during the first quarter of 1999 was attributable to transitional difficulties associated with the implementation of the new Medicare prospective payment system which became effective at all of the Company’s facilities on January 1, 1999. Such transitional difficulties resulted in lower than expected revenues, primarily due to fewer than expected Medicare patient days, lower Medicare Part A rates, reduced revenues from therapy services provided to non-affiliated long-term care centers and a reduction in revenues from the provision of Medicare Part B services at the Company’s own facilities. In response, during the first quarter of 1999, the Company initiated additional facility-based training directed towards the documentation requirements of the revised Medicare reimbursement system. The Company also continued to refine its admission and assessment protocols in order to increase patient admissions and introduced a series of targeted initiatives to lower operating expenses. Such initiatives included wage and staffing reductions (primarily related to the delivery of rehabilitative therapy services and indirect nursing support), renegotiation of vendor contracts and ongoing efforts to reduce the Company’s reliance on outside nurse agency personnel. All of the staffing reductions were implemented, on or prior to, April 1, 1999. Effective March 30, 1999, the Company obtained an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Facility which limited borrowings under the Credit Facility to an aggregate of $58,500,000 (exclusive of undrawn letters of credit outstanding as of March 30, 1999) and which modified certain financial covenants. The First Amendment required minimum amounts of EBITDA, measured quarterly, but calculated on a rolling twelve-month basis, through December 31, 2000. As long as the Company met or exceeded the required minimum cumulative amounts of EBITDA, the Company could access the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, subject to the reduced amount of availability.
Until September 27, 2000, the Company, through a wholly owned limited partnership, leased and operated four facilities in Ohio (the “Cleveland Facilities”) which it acquired in 1996 through capital leases. Each of the four leases contained an option to purchase the facility beginning July 1, 2001 and each lease was guaranteed by the Company. The guaranty provided that failure by the Company to have a specified minimum consolidated net worth at the end of any two consecutive quarters would be an event of default under the guaranty, which in turn would be an event of default under each lease. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company recorded a $5.7 million restructuring charge to terminate its contracts to provide rehabilitation therapy services to non-affiliated long-term care facilities. (See Note P to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.) As a result of this restructuring charge, the Company’s consolidated net worth as of September 30, 1999 (as calculated for purposes of this requirement) had fallen below the required level. The Company anticipated that its net worth would continue to be below the required level at December 31, 1999, which would have resulted in an event of default under each of these leases with the Company potentially facing the loss of these operations. Such default could also have triggered cross-defaults under the Company’s other lease and debt obligations. In December 1999, the Company paid $5 million to its landlord and obtained an option (the “New Option”) to acquire the Cleveland Facilities. The Company borrowed $5 million from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. to fund this payment. The New Option allowed the Company to exercise its right to purchase the Cleveland Facilities beginning as of the date of the New Option, required the Company to complete the acquisition prior to December 31, 2000 and provided a waiver of the net worth covenant through that date. The Company exercised the New Option on June 30, 2000 and on September 27, 2000, the Company terminated the Cleveland Facilities capital leases and assigned its purchase rights for these facilities to an investment entity organized by Investcorp S.A. for $5.0 million, which acquired the Cleveland Facilities on September 27, 2000. On that date, the Company entered into new operating leases for each of the Cleveland Facilities with combined annual rent expense of approximately $5.9 million. The Company also repaid the $5.0 million loan from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. As a result of the capital lease termination, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $8.9 million. (See Note I to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.) The principal components of this charge included the write-off of capital leased assets in excess of the related capital lease obligation ($5.7 million) and the write-off of deferred financing costs ($1.8 million) originally incurred in obtaining the Company’s Credit Facility. In order to complete the Cleveland Facility leasing transaction, the Company was required to obtain the release of certain collateral held by the bank group that provides the Credit Facility. The Company obtained the release of the collateral as part of an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Credit Facility, which also resulted in a permanent reduction of the Company’s maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility from $250 million to $150 million and an increase in the Company’s borrowing rate. As a result of the permanent reduction in funds available through the Credit Facility, the Company was required to write off a proportionate amount of the deferred financing costs incurred when the credit facility was originally obtained.
On March 28, 2001, the Company obtained an additional amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Credit Facility in order to be able to complete the financial restructuring of the Company’s Discount Notes and Preferred Stock discussed below. The Third Amendment resulted in a permanent reduction of the Company’s maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility from $150 million to $60 million, revised certain financial covenants, changed the maturity date of the Credit Facility to March 31, 2004 and increased the Company’s borrowing rate. The Third Amendment also requires the Company to repay, on an annual basis, the greater of $5.0 million or 50% of the Company’s excess cash flow (as defined). As a result of the permanent reduction in funds available through the Credit Facility, the Company was required to write off approximately $2.6 million of deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained. (See Note H to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
In March 2001, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) with Investcorp S.A. and the holders of more than a majority in interest of the Company’s Discount Notes and Preferred Stock for purposes of implementing a restructuring of the Discount Notes and Preferred Stock. The Restructuring Agreement contemplated that the Company would offer to exchange for each $1,000 amount at maturity of outstanding Discount Notes a combination of the following: (1) 0.5899118 of a new 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Note due 2007 (the “New Notes”) each having a principal amount at maturity equal to $1,000 and an original issue price of $685.67 (assuming that the New Notes were issued on May 4, 2001), (2) $88.2353 in cash and (3) common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.9 shares of its Class A Common Stock. The Company would also offer to exchange common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.7 shares of its Class A Common Stock for each $1,000 liquidation preference of Preferred Stock (based on the aggregate liquidation preference to be outstanding on May 1, 2001) plus any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock after May 1, 2001. In conjunction with the restructuring proposal, the Company would solicit consents from holders of outstanding Discount Notes and Preferred Stock to
amendments to the Indenture governing the Discount Notes and to the Certificate of Designation governing the Preferred Stock that would eliminate or modify certain restrictive covenants and other provisions contained in the Indenture and the Certificate of Designation and would substantially eliminate the preferences of the Preferred Stock, including the reduction of the liquidation preference from $1,000 to $0.01 per share and the elimination of the right of holders to be paid dividends on shares of Preferred Stock. Also, the Company would issue to Investcorp S.A. (or one or more of its affiliates or designees) up to 15,000 shares of a new series of 13% convertible exchangeable preferred stock (the “New Preferred Stock”) and 1,854,422 common stock purchase warrants for a total purchase price of up to $15,000,000.
On April 6, 2001 the Company initiated the exchange offer and consent solicitation contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement. On May 10, 2001, the Company completed the exchange offer and consent solicitation, thereby implementing each of the elements of the Restructuring Agreement. All of the outstanding Discount Notes and 99.96% of the shares of Preferred Stock were tendered and exchanged in the exchange offer. As a result of the exchange, (1) the Company has an aggregate principal amount at maturity of $100,276,000 of New Notes outstanding and an aggregate liquidation preference of $15,000,000 (as of May 10, 2001) of New Preferred Stock outstanding, (2) warrants were issued to holders of Discount Notes, to holders of Preferred Stock, and to Investcorp S.A. representing the right to purchase an aggregate of approximately 15%, 5% and 15%, respectively, of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which will initially be convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (3) the Company paid $15,000,000 in cash as partial consideration for the tendered Discount Notes.
The reduction in the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock was completed on May 10, 2001, as contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $57,595,000 to $576 and the amount of the reduction, net of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Preferred Stock (approximately $1,011,000 at May 10, 2001), was directly transferred to the Company’s Accumulated Deficit account. With the exchange of the New Notes for the Discount Notes (the “Note Exchange”), the carrying value of the accreted principal of the Discount Notes was reduced to $68,890,000, and the amount of the reduction, net of the aggregate cash payment of $15,000,000, was directly transferred to the Company’s Long-term Accrued Interest account. Subsequent to their issuance, the carrying amount of the New Notes increases as the result of accretion and results in a corresponding decrease in the carrying amount of Long-term Accrued Interest. Interest expense on the New Notes is recognized such that a constant effective interest rate is applied to the aggregate carrying amount of the New Notes and Long-term Accrued Interest for all periods between the issuance date and the maturity date of the New Notes.
In connection with the Third Amendment to the Credit Facility and the implementation of the Restructuring Agreement, the Company incurred a non-recurring charge of $9,045,000. The charge resulted from the write-off of approximately $1,500,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained, the write-off of approximately $3,400,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Discount Notes, and the recognition of various investment advisory, legal and other fees associated with these events of $4,145,000.
The New Notes were issued at a discount and interest on the New Notes accretes until August 1, 2004. Cash interest payments will be paid semi-annually in arrears beginning on February 1, 2005 based on the fully accreted value of the New Notes and a 12% cash interest payment rate. The New Notes mature on August 1, 2007. The New Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008. The holders of the New Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends quarterly in arrears beginning August 1, 2001 and payable in additional shares of New Preferred Stock. Warrants to purchase a total of 4,326,641 shares of common stock at $0.01 per share were issued on May 10, 2001.
As of December 31, 2001, total obligations under the Credit Facility were $54,930,000 and consisted of $25,250,000 of revolver loans, $13,700,000 of synthetic lease obligations and $15,980,000 of undrawn letters of credit. Approximately 40% of the letters of credit were issued in connection with the Company's leasing of long-term facilities under operating leases. The remaining letters of credit were issued to third party insurers and relate to recorded insurance liabilities. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $70,000 of availability under the Credit Facility (as amended by the Third Amendment) and was not in default of the financial covenants of the Credit Facility.
The Company’s operating activities in 2000 provided net cash of $26,366,000 as compared to providing net cash of $19,235,000 in 2001. Cash flows from operations in 2001 decreased primarily as the result of non-recurring cash charges incurred in connection with the completion of the Third amendment, the Financial Restructuring and the Facility Reorganization.
Net cash used by investing activities was $8,702,000 during 2000 as compared to $13,061,000 used in 2001. The primary use of cash for investing purposes during 2000 and 2001 was to fund additions to property and equipment associated with the maintenance of the Company’s existing facilities.
Net cash used by financing activities was $8,326,000 in 2000 as compared to $7,649,000 used in 2001. During 2001, the Company repaid $7,500,000 on its revolving credit facility.
In addition to the Discount Notes, as of December 31, 2001, the Company had two mortgage loans outstanding totaling $17,179,000 and $25,250,000 in revolving loans on its Credit Facility. One mortgage loan had an outstanding principal balance of $15,676,000 of which $15,140,000 is due at maturity in 2004. This loan bears interest at an annual rate of 10.65% plus additional interest equal to 0.3% of the difference between the annual operating revenues of the four mortgaged facilities and actual revenues during the twelve-month base period. The Company’s other mortgage loan, which encumbers a single facility, had an outstanding principal balance of $1,503,000 at December 31, 2001, of which $1,338,000 is due in 2010.
The Company owns a 75% interest in a partnership that owns one facility. The Company accounts for its investment in this partnership using the equity method. The Company has guaranteed a loan of approximately $5,600,000 made to this partnership to refinance a loan that funded the construction of the facility and provided working capital. The loan is also collateralized by additional collateral pledged by the non-affiliated partner. The loan matures on May 1, 2002 and the Company expects to refinance the loan on comparable terms prior to the maturity date. The partnership agreement states that each partner will contribute an amount in respect of any liability incurred by a partner in connection with a guarantee of the partnership's debt, so that partners each bear their proportionate share of any liability based on their percentage ownership of the partnership.
Harborside expects that its capital expenditures for 2002, excluding acquisitions of new long-term care facilities, will aggregate approximately $7,000,000. Harborside’s expected capital expenditures will relate to maintenance capital expenditures, systems enhancements, special construction projects and other capital improvements. Harborside expects that its future facility acquisitions will be financed primarily through operating leases or assumed debt. Harborside may be required to obtain additional equity financing to finance any significant acquisitions in the future, to refinance the New Notes when they mature on August 1, 2007 or to refinance the New Preferred Stock when it becomes mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008.
The Company is highly leveraged, which makes it vulnerable to changes in general economic conditions. The Company's ability to repay or refinance its debt will depend on, among other things, financial, business, market, competitive and other conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The Company believes that, taken together, its current cash balances, internally generated cash flow and availability under its credit facilities should result in the Company having adequate cash resources to meet its debt service and other financial obligations for at least the next twelve months.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The following table provides information about the Company's contractual obligations as of December 31, 2001, excluding current liabilities except for the current portion of long-term debt.

cash obligations $ 331,064,000 $ 31,087,000 $ 94,501,000 $ 45,578,000 $ 159,898,000
============== ============== ============== ============= ==============
(1) The operating lease obligation amounts include the annual facility rent payments for two long-term care facilities whose acquisitions were financed by the Company through the synthetic leasing capability of its Credit Facility. The Company's annual rent obligations under these synthetic leases reflect payment of interest only on the lessor's $13,700,000 of underlying debt obligations. At the maturity of the leases, the Company is obligated to either purchase the facilities and refinance the $13,700,000 of underlying debt or assist the lessor in remarketing the facilities and reimburse the lessor if the fair market value of the facilities at that time is less than the amount of the underlying debt obligation.
The Company issued $15,000,000 of New Preferred Stock on May 10, 2001. As long as the Company's New Notes remain outstanding, the New Preferred Stock is entitled to dividends at rate of 13% per annum compounded quarterly and payable in additional shares of New Preferred Stock. The New Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008.
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company implemented a general and professional liability insurance program that, for the period from September 1, 1998 to August 31, 2001, limited the Company’s self-retention risk for this program to a maximum of $25,000 per year. The long-term care industry has seen the cost of maintaining traditional professional liability insurance increase significantly over the past two years, especially in the State of Florida. Most insurance companies are unwilling to underwrite new professional liability policies in the State of Florida. In May 2001, tort reform legislation was enacted in Florida. This legislation provides caps on punitive damages, limits to add-on legal fees, stricter rules of evidence and a shorter statute of limitations period. Given the tremendous increase in professional liability premiums and the tort reform legislation that was enacted in the State of Florida in May 2001, the Company concluded that it would be more cost effective to assume a higher level of retained risk for professional liability claims. As a result, the Company implemented a new general and professional liability program, effective September 1, 2001, which resulted in the Company maintaining an unaggregated self-insured retention of $2,000,000 per occurrence for locations outside of Florida and completely retaining risk at the Florida facilities. As of December 31, 2001, the Company maintains a Claims Reserve in the amount of $1,467,000 for incurred but not reported claims. The amount of the reserve was determined through an estimation process that used information from both the Company’s records as well as industry data. The Company uses an independent actuary to help estimate the required general and professional liability reserve. Factors reviewed include the frequency of expected claims, the average cost per claim, emerging industry trends, changes in regulatory environment (such as the recently enacted Florida tort reform legislation) and the expected effect of various operational and risk management initiatives. At this time, the Company estimates that, effective September 1, 2001, its annual cost for professional and general liability insurance for existing facilities will increase from approximately $2,500,000 under the prior program to $6,500,000 under the new program. The Company will continue to evaluate its insurance reserve requirements on a quarterly basis. Required adjustments to the Company’s general and professional liability reserve will be recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs. There can be no assurances the recent Florida tort reform
legislation will have a positive impact on claims activity, that the coverage limits of the Company’s insurance program will be adequate or that insurance will continue to be available to the Company in the future. (See Note M to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.)
Certain of the increases in Medicare reimbursement for skilled nursing facilities provided for under the BBRA and BIPA are scheduled to expire on October 1, 2002. Unless Congress enacts new legislation, the loss of revenues associated with this occurrence could have a material adverse effect on the
Company. If new legislation is not enacted, the Company estimates that its revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 would be reduced by approximately $37 per Medicare Part A patient day. The Company cannot provide assurances that Congress will act to renew the existing legislation; however, the Company does anticipate that it would take actions to reduce costs to offset a portion of this revenue reduction. At this time, the Company cannot predict the course of action likely to be selected by Congress or the impact of this issue on the Company's net income for the year ended December 31, 2002.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) broadened the scope of fraud and abuse laws to include all health plans, whether or not they are reimbursed under Federal programs. HIPAA also mandated the adoption of federal regulations designed to (a) standardize transaction formats and billing codes for documenting health care services, determining eligibility and processing claims for payment; and (b) protect the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information. Final HIPAA regulations that standardize transactions and code sets were issued during the third quarter of 2000. The ultimate compliance date was subsequently modified by legislation to require health care providers and health plans to either comply with the HIPAA transaction code set standards beginning in October of 2002 or submit a written plan to the federal government by October of 2002 describing specific plans for compliance by October of 2003. The regulations do not require healthcare providers to submit claims electronically, but do require standard formatting for those that do so. The Company currently submits most claims electronically and expects to continue to do so. The Company is currently evaluating its plans for compliance by October of 2002 or submitting the required plan describing its plans for compliance by October of 2003.
Final HIPAA privacy regulations were published during the fourth quarter of 2000. However, on March 21, 2002, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released a proposed rule which if finally adopted would modify the regulations published during 2000. In general, the regulations apply to “protected health information”, which is defined as individually identifiable health information transmitted or maintained in any form or medium, excluding certain education records and student medical records. The privacy regulations seek to limit the use and disclosure of most paper and oral communications, as well as those in electronic form, regarding an individual’s past, present or future physical or mental health or condition, or relating to the provision of health care to the individual or payment of that health care. The regulations further impose requirements on health care providers to contractually obligate certain of their subcontractors who may receive protected health care information during the course of rendering services on behalf of such health care provider to abide by certain privacy requirements as well. In addition, the current HIPAA regulations provide that certain state privacy laws may not be preempted by HIPAA. Accordingly, the Company, in certain instances, will remain subject to various state privacy laws in jurisdictions in which it currently operates facilities. HIPAA provides for the imposition of civil and criminal penalties if protected health information is improperly disclosed. The Company must comply with the privacy regulations by April of 2003. Given the issuance of the recent proposed rulemaking, it is uncertain the extent to which the regulations that were published in 2000 will change. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the privacy regulations on its operations.
HIPAA’s security regulations have not been finalized. The proposed security regulations specify administrative procedures, physical safeguards, and technical services and mechanisms designed to ensure that protected health information remains secure. The proposed security rules contemplate a compliance date of 24 months after the effective date of the final rule published in the Federal Register, although it is possible that such compliance date will differ and could align with the compliance date for the privacy regulations depending on when the security regulations are ultimately finalized.
The Company is currently working in conjunction with its software vendors to evaluate the impact of HIPAA regulations on the Company’s systems and operating procedures. The Company has not yet completed its analysis or its estimate of the expected costs of compliance with the HIPAA regulations. There can be no assurances that compliance with HIPAA regulations will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or its financial position.
SEASONALITY
Harborside’s earnings generally fluctuate from quarter to quarter. This seasonality is related to a combination of factors which include, among other things, the timing of Medicaid and Medicare rate increases, seasonal census cycles and the number of calendar days in a given quarter.
INFLATION
The healthcare industry is labor intensive. Wages and other labor related costs are especially sensitive to inflation. Shortages in the labor market or general inflationary pressure could have a significant effect on the Company. In addition, suppliers attempt to pass along rising costs to the Company in the form of higher prices. When d with increases in operating costs, the Company has generally increased its charges for services. The Company’s operations could be adversely affected if it is unable to recover future cost increases or if it experiences significant delays in Medicare and Medicaid revenue sources increasing their rates of reimbursement.
ITEM 7A.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Most of the Company’s debt obligations bear interest at fixed rates and are not affected by changes in market interest rates; however, borrowings under the Company’s New Credit Facility are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Under the New Credit Facility, interest is based on either LIBOR or prime rates of interest (plus applicable margins), at the Company’s election. As the prime and LIBOR rates of interest increase, interest expense associated with the Company’s borrowings under the New Credit Facility would also increase. An increase of 1% in the applicable rate would have increased the Company’s annual interest cost by approximately $318,000.
The Company did not experience significant changes in interest rates during the year ended December 31, 2001. As part of the Company’s risk management program, the Company continuously reviews its overall exposure to interest rate risk and evaluates the benefits of interest rate hedging through the use of derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps. By entering into an interest rate swap, the Company can effectively transform variable rate debt into fixed rate debt. The Company did not have any interest rate swap arrangements outstanding during the years ending December 31, 2000 or December 31, 2001.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Harborside Healthcare Corporation
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity
(deficit), and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Harborside Healthcare Corporation and its subsidiaries
(the “Company”) at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the three years then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Harborside Healthcare Corporation, through its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Harborside”), operates long-term care facilities and, until September 1999, provided rehabilitation therapy services to non-affiliated long-term care facilities (See Note P). As of December 31, 2001, the Company owned eighteen facilities, operated thirty-two additional facilities under various leases and managed one facility. The Company accounts for its investment in one 75% owned facility using the equity method of accounting.
B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company was incorporated in Delaware on March 19, 1996 and was formed as a holding company in anticipation of an initial public offering (the “IPO”), to combine under the control of a single corporation the operations of various business entities which were all under the majority control of several related stockholders.
On April 15, 1998, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) with HH Acquisition Corp. (“MergerCo”), an entity organized for the sole purpose of effecting a merger on behalf of Investcorp S.A., certain of its affiliates and certain other international investors (the “New Investors”). The New Investors made common equity cash contributions totaling $165 million ($158.5 million, net of issuance costs). On August 11, 1998, MergerCo merged with and into the Company, with Harborside Healthcare Corporation as the surviving corporation. As a result of the transaction, and pursuant to the Merger, the New Investors acquired approximately 91% of the post-merger common stock of the Company. The remaining 9% of the common stock was retained by existing shareholders, including management. As a result of the Merger, the Company’s shares were de-listed from the New York Stock Exchange.
The Merger was approved by a majority of the Company’s shareholders at a special meeting held on August 11, 1998. Each share not retained by existing shareholders was converted into $25 in cash, representing in the aggregate, cash payments of approximately $184 million. The converted shares (7,349,832 shares) were recorded at cost as treasury stock and represent a deduction from the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Holders of outstanding stock options of the Company converted the majority of their options into cash at $25 per underlying share (less applicable exercise price and withholding taxes) with aggregate payments of approximately $8 million.
In connection with the transaction and prior to the Merger, the New Investors made cash common equity contributions of $158.5 million, net of issuance costs, to MergerCo, and MergerCo obtained gross proceeds of $99.5 million through the issuance of 11% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (“Discount Notes”) due 2008 and $40 million through the issuance of 13.5% Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) mandatorily redeemable in 2010. In the third quarter of 1998, Harborside recorded a charge to income from operations of $37 million ($29 million after taxes) for direct and other costs related to the Merger transaction. In connection with the Merger and the related refinancings, the Company exercised purchase options for seven facilities which had been previously financed through synthetic leases.
C. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company uses the following accounting policies for financial reporting purposes:
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Total Net Revenues
Total net revenues include net patient service revenues, management fees from managed facilities and the facility accounted for using the equity method, and, through September 1999, rehabilitation therapy service revenues from contracts to provide rehabilitation therapy services to non-affiliated long-term care facilities.
Net patient service revenues payable by patients at the Company’s facilities are recorded at established billing rates. Net patient service revenues to be reimbursed by contracts with third-party payors, primarily the Medicare and Medicaid programs, are recorded at the amount estimated to be realized under these contractual arrangements. Revenues from Medicare and Medicaid are generally based on reimbursement of the reasonable direct and indirect costs of providing services to program participants or a prospective payment system. The Company separately estimates revenues due from each third-party with which it has a contractual arrangement and records anticipated settlements with these parties in the contractual period during which services were rendered. The amounts actually reimbursable under Medicare and Medicaid are determined by filing cost reports which are then audited and generally retroactively adjusted by the payor. Legislative changes to state or Federal reimbursement systems may also retroactively affect recorded revenues. Changes in estimated revenues due in connection with Medicare and Medicaid may be recorded by the Company subsequent to the year of origination and prior to final settlement based on improved estimates. Such adjustments and final settlements with third-party payors, which could materially and adversely affect the Company, are reflected in operations at the time of the adjustment or settlement. Accounts receivable, net, at
December 31, 2000 and 2001, include $11,451,000 and $8,467,000, respectively, of estimated settlements due from third-party payors and $2,268,000 and $2,401,000, respectively, of estimated settlements due to third-party payors.
Concentrations
A significant portion of the Company’s revenues are derived from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. There have been, and the Company expects that there will continue to be, a number of proposals to limit reimbursement allowable to long-term care facilities under these programs. Approximately 71%, 74%, and 77% of the Company’s net revenues in the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively, are from the Company’s participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. As of December 31, 2000 and 2001, $25,601,000 and $25,862,000, respectively, of net accounts receivable were due from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
Facility Operating Expenses
Facility operating expenses include expenses associated with the normal operations of a long-term care facility. The majority of these costs consist of payroll and employee benefits related to nursing, rehabilitation therapy services, housekeeping and dietary services provided to patients, as well as maintenance and administration of the facilities. Other significant facility operating expenses include: the cost of medical and pharmacy supplies, food and utilities. Through September 1999, facility operating expenses included expenses associated with rehabilitation therapy services rendered by the Company under contracts to provide rehabilitation therapy services to non-affiliated long-term care facilities. (See Note P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report).
Provision for Doubtful Accounts
Provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable of $1,655,000, $3,610,000 and $3,998,000 are included in facility operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Individual patient accounts deemed to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for the collectibility of receivables, depreciation and amortization, health benefit, workers’ compensation and general and professional liability claims, taxes and contingencies.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures that extend the lives of affected assets are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon the retirement or sale of an asset, the cost of the asset and any related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet, and any resulting gain or loss is included in net income (loss).
Depreciation expense is estimated using the straight-line method. These estimates are calculated using the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and improvements 31.5 to 40 years or the life of the leased facility
Furniture and equipment 3 to 10 years
Land improvements 8 to 40 years
Deferred Financing and Other Non-Current Assets
Deferred financing costs consist of costs incurred in obtaining financing (primarily loans and facility leases). These costs are amortized using the straight-line method (which approximates the interest method) over the term of the related financial obligation (See Notes E and H).
In connection with each of its acquisitions, the Company reviewed the assets of the acquired facilities and assessed their relative fair value in comparison to the purchase price. Covenants not-to-compete are being amortized using the straight-line method over the period during which competition is restricted. Goodwill resulted from the acquisition of certain assets for which the negotiated purchase prices exceeded the allocations of the fair market value of identifiable assets. The Company’s policy is to evaluate each acquisition separately and identify an appropriate amortization period for goodwill based on the acquired property’s characteristics. Through December 31, 2001, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method over a 15 to 40 year period (See discussion of New Accounting Pronouncements below).
Assessment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews, on a quarterly basis, the carrying value of its long-lived assets (primarily property and equipment and deferred financing and other non-current assets) to assess the recoverability of these assets; any impairments would be recognized in operating results if a diminution in value considered to be other than temporary were to occur. As part of this assessment, the Company reviews the expected future net operating cash flows from its facilities, as well as the values included in appraisals of its facilities, which have periodically been obtained in
connection with various financial arrangements. (See Notes H, I and P to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report).
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of their acquisition by the Company.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of cash set aside in escrow accounts as required by several of the Company’s leases and other financing arrangements.
Income Taxes
The Company determines deferred taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted marginal tax rates. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the assets or liabilities from period to period. A valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be recognized (See Note K).
Reclassification of Prior Period Amounts
Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 141, Business Combinations. SFAS 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 141 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is effective January 1, 2002. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill. SFAS 142 also requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. As of December 31, 2001, the Company’s intangible assets included no assets that will be classified as goodwill effective January 1, 2002.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 143 in their fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS 143 requires that obligations associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset be recorded as a liability when these obligations are incurred, with the amount of the liability initially measured at fair value. Upon recognizing a liability, an entity must capitalize the cost by recognizing an increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset, accrete the liability over time to its present value each period, and depreciate the capitalized cost over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, the obligation is either settled for its recorded amount or a gain or loss is recognized.
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 144 in their fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale, revises the rules regarding reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business and requires expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in discontinued operations in the periods in which the losses were incurred. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 144 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

=========== ===========
F. NOTE RECEIVABLE
On December 1, 1997, the Company acquired five long-term care facilities in Connecticut. The Company financed this acquisition through an operating lease with the seller. In connection with this acquisition, the Company received a note receivable from the owners in the amount of $7,487,000. Interest is earned at the rate of 9% per annum, and payments are due monthly, in arrears, commencing January 1, 1998 and continuing until November 30, 2010, at which time the entire principal balance is due. The proceeds of the note were used by the owner to repay certain indebtedness. The note is collateralized by various mortgage interests and other collateral.
G. OPERATING LEASES
The Company leases certain long-term care facilities and equipment under operating leases. The Company’s existing leased facilities are leased either from the owner of the facilities, from a real estate investment trust or other real estate entity that has purchased the facilities from the owner or through synthetic lease borrowings. The Company’s existing facility leases generally require it to make monthly lease payments and pay all property operating costs. The Company generally negotiates leases that provide for extensions beyond the initial lease term and an option to purchase the leased facility. In some cases, the option to purchase the leased facility is at a price based on the fair market value of the facility at the time the option is to be exercised. In other cases, the lease sets forth a fixed purchase option price. The Company leases two facilities through the synthetic leasing capability afforded by its credit facility (See Note H). In connection with these synthetic leases the Company has guaranteed approximately $12,000,000 of residual property value.
Future minimum rent commitments under the Company’s non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2001 are as follows:

============ ========= ============
H. LONG-TERM DEBT
The Company has a mortgage payable (the “Mortgage”) in the amount of $15,676,000 at December 31, 2001. The Mortgage is cross-collateralized by the assets of four of the Company’s facilities (the “Four Facilities”). The Mortgage bears interest at the annual rate of 10.65%. Additional interest payments are also required in an amount equal to 0.3% of the difference between the operating revenues of the Four Facilities in each applicable year and the operating revenues of the Four Facilities during a twelve-month base period which commenced October 1, 1995. The Mortgage places certain restrictions on the Four Facilities; among them, the agreement restricts their ability to incur additional debt or to make significant dispositions of assets. The Four Facilities are also required to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 (as defined in the loan agreement) and a current ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0. The Mortgage contains a prepayment penalty calculated in accordance with a formula.
A subsidiary of the Company assumed a first mortgage note (the “Note”) with a remaining balance of $1,503,000 as part of the acquisition of a long-term care facility in 1988. The Note requires the annual retirement of principal in the amount of $20,000. The Company pays interest monthly at the rate of 14% per annum on the outstanding principal amount until maturity in October 2010, when the remaining unpaid principal balance of $1,338,000 is due. The Note is collateralized by the property and equipment of the facility.
On August 11, 1998, in connection with the Merger, the Company entered into a six-year $250,000,000 collateralized credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). During the first four years of the Credit Facility, up to $250,000,000 could be used in connection with synthetic lease financing. Proceeds of the loans could be used for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s patient accounts receivable, certain real estate and a first or second priority interest in the capital stock of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. Interest is based on either LIBOR or prime rates of interest (plus applicable margins), at the election of the Company. The Credit Facility requires that the Company maintain an interest/rent coverage ratio which varies by year, and limits aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility to a predetermined multiple of EBITDA. The Credit Facility contains a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, prohibit the disposition of certain assets, limit the Company’s ability to make capital expenditures in excess of pre-determined levels and limits the ability of the Company to declare and pay certain dividends.
During the first quarter of 1999, the Company determined that its anticipated financial results for that quarter would cause the Company to be out of compliance with certain financial covenants of the Credit Facility. Accordingly, the Company obtained an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Facility effective March 30, 1999 which temporarily limited borrowings under the Credit Facility to an aggregate of $58,500,000 (exclusive of undrawn letters of credit outstanding as of March 30, 1999) and which modified certain financial covenants. In order to complete the Cleveland Facility leasing transaction (See Note I), the Company was required to obtain the release of certain collateral held by the bank group which provides the Credit Facility. The Company obtained the release of the collateral as part of an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Credit Facility, which also resulted in a permanent reduction of the Company’s maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility from $250 million to $150 million and an increase in the Company’s borrowing rate. As a result of the permanent reduction in funds available through the Credit Facility, the Company was required to write off a proportionate amount of the deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained.
On March 28, 2001, the Company obtained an additional amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Credit Facility in order to be able to implement the financial restructuring of the Company’s Discount Notes and Preferred Stock discussed below. The Third Amendment resulted in a permanent reduction of the Company’s maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility from $150 million to $60 million, revised certain financial covenants, changed the maturity date of the Credit Facility to March 31, 2004 and increased the Company’s borrowing rate. The Third Amendment also requires the Company to repay, on an annual basis, the greater of $5,000,000 or 50% of the Company’s excess cash flow (as defined). As a result of the permanent reduction in funds available through the Credit Facility, the Company was required to write off a proportionate amount of the deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained.
As of December 31, 2001, total obligations under the Credit Facility were $54,930,000 and consisted of $25,250,000 of revolver loans, $13,700,000 of synthetic lease obligations and $15,980,000 of undrawn letters of credit. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $70,000 of remaining availability under the Credit Facility (as amended by the Third Amendment) and was not in default of the financial covenants of the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2001, interest on revolver loans outstanding under the Credit Facility ranged from 5.9% to 6.43%.
In connection with the Merger on August 11, 1998, the Company issued $170,000,000 principal amount at maturity (approximately $99,500,000 gross proceeds) of Discount Notes. Each Discount Note was issued with a principal amount at maturity of $1,000 and an original issue price of $585.25. Interest on the Discount Notes accreted in accordance with a predetermined formula on a semi-annual basis on February 1, and August 1, of each year. Cash interest was not to accrue on the Discount Notes until August 1, 2003. In March 2001, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) with Investcorp S.A. and the holders of more than a majority in interest of the Company’s Discount Notes and Preferred Stock for purposes of implementing a restructuring of the Discount Notes and Preferred Stock. The Restructuring Agreement contemplated that the Company would offer to exchange for each $1,000 amount at maturity of outstanding Discount Notes a combination of the following: (1) 0.5899118 of a new 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Note due 2007 (the “New Notes”) each having a principal amount at maturity equal to $1,000 and an original issue price of $685.67 (assuming that the New Notes were issued on May 4, 2001), (2) $88.2353 in cash and (3) common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.9 shares of its Class A Common Stock. The Company would also offer to exchange common stock purchase warrants for approximately 10.7 shares of its Class A Common Stock for each $1,000 liquidation preference of Preferred Stock (based on the aggregate liquidation preference to be outstanding on May 1, 2001) plus any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock after May 1, 2001. In conjunction with the restructuring proposal, the Company would solicit consents from holders of outstanding Discount Notes and Preferred Stock to
amendments to the Indenture governing the Discount Notes and to the Certificate of Designation governing the Preferred Stock that would eliminate or modify certain restrictive covenants and other provisions contained in the Indenture and the Certificate of Designation and would substantially eliminate the preferences of the Preferred Stock, including the reduction of the liquidation preference from $1,000 to $0.01 per share and the elimination of the right of holders to be paid dividends on shares of Preferred Stock. Also, the Company would issue to Investcorp S.A. (or one or more of its affiliates or designees) up to 15,000 shares of a new series of 13% convertible exchangeable preferred stock (the “New Preferred Stock”) and 1,854,422 common stock purchase warrants for a total purchase price of up to $15,000,000.
On April 6, 2001, the Company initiated the exchange offer and consent solicitation contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement. On May 10, 2001, the Company completed the exchange offer and consent solicitation, thereby implementing each of the elements of the Restructuring Agreement. All of the outstanding Discount Notes and 99.96% of the Preferred Stock shares were tendered and exchanged in the exchange offer. As a result of the exchange, (1) the Company has an aggregate principal amount at maturity of $100,276,000 of New Notes outstanding and an aggregate liquidation preference of $15,000,000 (as of May 10, 2001) of New Preferred Stock outstanding, (2) warrants were issued to holders of Discount Notes, to holders of Preferred Stock, and to Investcorp S.A. representing the right to purchase an aggregate of approximately 15%, 5% and 15%, respectively, of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which are initially convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (3) the Company paid $15,000,000 in cash as partial consideration for the tendered Discount Notes.
The reduction in the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock was completed on May 10, 2001, as contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $57,595,000 to $576 and the amount of the reduction, net of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Preferred Stock (approximately $1,011,000 at May 10, 2001), was directly transferred to the Company’s Accumulated Deficit account. With the exchange of the New Notes for the Discount Notes, the carrying value of the accreted principal of the Discount Notes was reduced to $68,890,000, and the amount of the reduction, net of the aggregate cash payment of $15,000,000, was directly transferred to the Company’s Long-term Accrued Interest account. Subsequent to their issuance, the carrying amount of the New Notes increases as the result of accretion and results in a corresponding decrease in the carrying amount of Long-term Accrued Interest. Interest expense on the New Notes is recognized such that a constant effective interest rate is applied to the aggregate carrying amount of the New Notes and Long-term Accrued Interest for all periods between the issuance date and the maturity date of the New Notes.
In connection with the Third Amendment to the Credit Facility and the implementation of the Restructuring Agreement, the Company incurred a non-recurring charge of $9,045,000. This charge resulted from the write off of approximately $1,500,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was obtained, the write-off of approximately $3,400,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Discount Notes, and the recognition of various investment advisory, legal and other fees associated with these events of $4,145,000.
The New Notes were issued at a discount and interest on the New Notes accretes until August 1, 2004. Cash interest payments will be paid semi-annually in arrears beginning on February 1, 2005 based on the fully accreted value of the New Notes and a 12% cash interest payment rate. The New Notes mature on August 1, 2007.
At any time on or prior to August 1, 2003, the New Notes may be redeemed, in whole but not in part, at the option of the Company upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control” (as defined) in accordance with the prescribed procedures and the payment of any applicable premium (as defined). Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, unless all New Notes have been called for redemption, each holder of the New Notes will have the right to require, in accordance with the prescribed procedures, the Company to repurchase all or any part of the New Notes at a price equal to 101% of the accreted value of the New Notes. The New Notes must be redeemed in whole on August 1, 2007.
Upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Company, holders of the New Notes will be entitled to be paid in full 100% of principal and accrued interest out of the assets available for distribution after holders of senior debt have been paid in full. The New Notes are unsecured, subordinate to existing and future senior debt of the Company, but senior in right with all existing and future subordinated debt of the Company. Certain of the subsidiaries of the Company have jointly and severally guaranteed the Company’s payment obligations (subject to maximum amounts per subsidiary) under the New Notes (see Note R). Each New Note guaranteed by such subsidiary is subordinated to any senior debt of such guarantor. The Company derives substantially all of its income from operations through its subsidiaries and consequently, the New Notes are effectively subordinated to the potential claims of creditors of all of the subsidiaries of the Company irrespective of subsidiary guarantees. The New Notes also contain certain restrictive covenants which limit the ability of the Company to incur debt, issue preferred stock, merge or dispose of substantially all of its assets.
Interest expense charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 was $21,678,000, $23,007,000 and $13,270,000, respectively.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are subject to liens under long-term debt or operating lease agreements.
I. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION
Until September 27, 2000, the Company, through a wholly owned limited partnership, leased and operated four facilities in Ohio (the “Cleveland Facilities”) which it acquired in 1996 through capital leases. Each of the four leases contained an option to purchase the facility beginning July 1, 2001 and each lease was guaranteed by the Company. The guaranty provided that failure by the Company to have a specified minimum consolidated net worth at the end of any two consecutive quarters would be an event of default under the guaranty, which in turn would be an event of default under each lease. As a result of a restructuring charge (See Note P), the Company’s consolidated net worth as of September 30, 1999 (as calculated for purposes of this requirement) had fallen below the required level. The Company anticipated that its net worth would continue to be below the required level at December 31, 1999, which would have resulted in an event of default under each of these leases with the Company potentially facing the loss of these operations. Such default could also have triggered cross-defaults under the Company’s other lease and debt obligations. In December 1999, the Company paid $5 million to its landlord and obtained an option (the “New Option”) to acquire the Cleveland Facilities. The Company borrowed $5 million from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. to fund this payment. The New Option allowed the Company to exercise its right to purchase the Cleveland Facilities beginning as of the date of the New Option, required the Company to complete the acquisition prior to December 31, 2000 and provided a waiver of the net worth covenant through that date. The Company exercised the New Option on June 30, 2000.
On September 27, 2000, the Company terminated the Cleveland Facilities capital leases and assigned its purchase rights for these facilities to an investment entity organized by Investcorp, for $5.0 million, which simultaneously acquired the Cleveland Facilities. On that date, the Company entered into new operating leases for each of the Cleveland Facilities with combined annual rent expense of approximately $5.9 million. The Company used the proceeds of the purchase rights assignment to repay the $5.0 million note payable from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. As a result of the capital lease termination, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $8.9 million. The principal components of this charge included the write-off of capital leased assets in excess of related capital lease obligation ($5.7 million) and the write-off of deferred financing costs ($1.8 million) related to the Company’s Credit Facility. In order to complete the Cleveland Facility leasing transaction, the Company was required to obtain the release of certain collateral held by the bank group which provides the Credit Facility. The Company obtained the release of the collateral as part of an amendment to the Company’s Credit Facility, which also resulted in a permanent reduction of the Company’s maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility from $250 million to $150 million and an increase in the Company’s borrowing rate. As a result of the permanent reduction in funds available through the Credit Facility, the Company was required to write off a proportionate amount of the deferred financing costs incurred when the Credit Facility was originally obtained.
On December 21, 2001, the Cleveland Facilities were sold to an unaffiliated real estate investment trust and the Company entered into new operating leases with that entity.
J. RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company maintains an employee 401(k) defined contribution plan. All employees who have worked at least one thousand hours and have completed one year (nine months effective January 1, 2002) of continuous service are eligible to participate in the plan. The plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Employee contributions to this plan may be matched at the discretion of the Company. The Company contributed $298,000 and $385,000 to the plan in 2000 and 2001. There were no contributions made to the plan in 1999.
In September 1995, the Company established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) to provide benefits to key employees. Participants may defer up to 25% of their compensation which is matched by the Company at a rate of 50% (up to 10% of base salary). Vesting in the matching portion occurs in January of the second year following the plan year in which contributions were made.
K. INCOME TAXES
As required by SFAS 109, the Company annually evaluates the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets. The Company has considered the recent and historical results of operations and concluded; in accordance with the applicable accounting methods that it is more likely than not that a certain portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realizable. To the extent that an asset will not be realizable, a valuation allowance is established. The tax effects of temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 are as follows:

L. CAPITAL STOCK
Common Stock
On August 11, 1998, as a result of the Merger, the Company authorized the issuance of 500,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $.01 per share and 19,000,000 shares (comprised of five classes) of common stock, each with a par value of $.01 per share, consisting of Harborside Class A Common Stock, Harborside Class B Common Stock, Harborside Class C Common Stock, Harborside Class D Common Stock and Common Stock (collectively “Harborside Common Stock”). Effective April 4, 2001, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was amended to (a) increase the authorized number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock from 1,200,000 shares to 11,700,000 shares and (b) increase the authorized number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock from 9,500,000 shares to 20,000,000 shares. On November 19, 2001, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was again amended to increase the authorized number of shares of the Company’s Class C Common Stock from 1,580,000 shares to 2,280,000 shares.
The numbers of shares of Harborside Common Stock authorized and outstanding as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 are as follows:

========== ========= =========== =========
Holders of shares of Harborside Class A Common Stock and Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters as to which stockholders may be entitled to vote pursuant to Delaware General Corporate Law (“the DGCL”). Holders of shares of Harborside Class D Common Stock are entitled to 330 votes per share on all matters as to which stockholders may be entitled to vote pursuant to the DGCL. This number of votes per share results in holders of Harborside Class D Common Stock, as of December 31, 2001, being entitled in the aggregate to a number of votes equal to the total number of outstanding shares of Harborside Class B Common Stock, Harborside Class C Common Stock and Harborside Class D Common Stock as of December 31, 2001. Holders of Harborside Class B Common Stock or Harborside Class C Common Stock will not have any voting rights, except that the holders of the Harborside Class B Common Stock and Harborside Class C Common Stock will have the right to vote as a class to the extent required under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Upon the occurrence of a sale of 100% of the outstanding equity securities or substantially all of the assets of the Company, a merger as a result of which the ownership of the Harborside Common Stock is changed to the extent of 100%, or a public offering of any equity securities of the Company, each share of Harborside Class A Common Stock, Harborside Class B Common Stock, Harborside Class C Common Stock and Harborside Class D Common Stock will convert into one share of Common Stock of the Company.
Restricted Stock
On September 29, 2000, the Company issued 664,500 shares of restricted Class C common stock (the “Restricted Shares”) to employees of the Company. As part of this restricted stock issuance, 507,705 options granted on August 11, 1998 to purchase shares of the Company’s Class C common stock at $25.00 per share were cancelled. The purpose of the restricted stock issuance was to better enable the Company to retain and motivate key employees. The Restricted Shares generally vest over varying periods of time through December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 2001, 280,000 Restricted Shares were vested. Unvested shares are restricted as to disposition and subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances. The value of the Restricted Shares on the date of grant was approximately $7,000.
Preferred StockIn connection with the Merger on August 11, 1998, the Company issued 40,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock were entitled to receive quarterly dividend payments in arrears beginning November 1, 1998. Dividends were payable in cash or in additional shares of Preferred Stock, at the option of the Company, until August 1, 2003. After August 1, 2003, dividends were to be paid only in cash. During the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, all dividends except for fractional shares amounting to $20,000, $18,000 and $6,000, respectively, were paid in additional shares.
In March 2001, the Company entered into the Restructuring Agreement with Investcorp S.A. and the holders of more than a majority in interest of the Company’s Discount Notes and Preferred Stock for purposes of implementing a restructuring of the Discount Notes and the Preferred Stock (See Note H). On May 10, 2001, the Company completed an exchange offer and consent solicitation, thereby implementing each of the elements of the Restructuring Agreement. As part of the exchange offer, 99.96% of the Preferred Stock shares were tendered and warrants were issued to holders of the Preferred Stock representing the right to purchase (at an exercise price of $0.01 per share) an aggregate of approximately 5% of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which are initially convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock). As contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, on May 10, 2001, the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $1,000 to $0.01 per share and the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was reduced from $57,595,000 to $576. The amount of this reduction, net of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the Preferred Stock (approximately $1,011,000 at May 10, 2001), was directly transferred to the Company’s Accumulated Deficit account.
In connection with the financial restructuring, the Company issued 15,000 shares of New Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $15,000,000. The New Preferred Stock had an initial liquidation preference of $15,000,000 and is entitled to dividends at the greater of: (a) a rate of 13% per annum compounded quarterly and payable in additional shares of New Preferred Stock, or at any time while no New Notes are outstanding, in cash and (b) an amount equal to the dividends payable on outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, payable quarterly in the same form as such dividends are payable. The New Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on February 1, 2008. Shares of the New Preferred Stock will generally not be redeemable by the Company until August 1, 2004 and thereafter will be redeemable at a premium, which will decline ratably to par by August 1, 2007. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined), the Company may redeem the New Preferred Stock as a whole, but not in part, at a price equal to 100% of the applicable liquidation preference including accrued but unpaid dividends and a “make whole premium” until August 1, 2004. If the Company does not redeem the New Preferred Stock in the event of a Change
in Control, the holders of the New Preferred Stock may require the Company to make an offer to purchase the outstanding shares of New Preferred Stock at a price equal to 101% of the applicable liquidation preference. Each share of the New Preferred stock is convertible: (a) into 150 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at any time at the option of the holder; (b) and subject to compliance with certain financial covenants, will also be exchangeable into the New Notes of the Company due 2008, at the option of the Company on any dividend payment date, subject to certain requirements and procedures. The exchange debentures would rank surbordinate to the New Notes.
Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Company, holders of the New Preferred Stock will be entitled to be paid out of the assets available for distribution, the liquidation preference per share plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid dividends, before any distribution is made to the holders of Harborside Common Stock. Holders of the New Preferred Stock have no voting rights except as provided by law and in the Certificate of Designation. In the event that dividends are not paid for any six quarterly periods, or upon certain other events, the number of directors constituting the Company’s Board of Directors would be adjusted to permit the holders of the majority of the then outstanding New Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, to elect two directors.
The Certificate of Designation also contains certain restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s restricted subsidiaries from making certain payments or investments and which limit the Company’s ability to incur debt, issue preferred stock, merge or dispose of substantially all of its assets.
As of December 31, 2001, preferred stock dividends accrete based on the following schedule:
2002 $ 2,222,000
2003 2,526,000
2004 2,871,000
2005 3,262,000

============
As part of the financial restructuring (See Note H), the Company issued Common Stock Warrants (the “Warrants”) to holders of the Discount Notes, to holders of the Preferred Stock, and to Investcorp S.A. representing the right to purchase an aggregate of approximately 15%, 5% and 15%, respectively, of the total number of shares of all classes of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis (excluding shares issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock, each share of which are initially convertible into 150 shares of Class A Common Stock). Warrants to purchase an aggregate total of 4,326,641 shares were issued on May 10, 2001. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Warrants will be exercisable at the earliest to occur of (a) a Change of Control, (b) an initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock, (c) the full redemption of all of the New Notes at the Company’s option and (d) August 1, 2009.
Earnings (Loss) per Common Share Computation
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) less preferred stock dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common shares outstanding exclude nonvested Restricted shares in the amounts of 171,000 and 578,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is similar to that of basic earnings (loss) per share except that the number of common shares is increased to reflect the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares for the Company consist of shares issuable upon exercise of the Company’s stock options.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001:

Stock Option Plans
During 1996, the Company established two stock option plans, the 1996 Stock Option Plan for Non-employee Directors (the “Director Plan”) and the 1996 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Plan”). Directors of the Company who were not employees, or affiliates of the Company, were eligible to participate in the Director Plan. On the date of the IPO, each of the four non-employee directors was granted options to acquire 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the IPO price. On January 1 of each year, each non-employee director received an additional grant for 3,500 shares at the fair market value on the date of grant. Options issued under the Director Plan became exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant and terminated upon the earlier of ten years from date of grant or one year from date of termination as a director. Through the Directors Retainer Fee Plan, non-employee directors of the Company could also elect to receive all or a portion of their director fees in shares of the Company’s common stock. The Stock Plan was administered by the Stock Plan Committee of the Board of Directors which was composed of outside directors who were not eligible to participate in this plan. The Stock Plan authorized the issuance of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based awards. Options granted during the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, were granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the stock plan during 1996 and 1997 vested over a three-year period and had a maximum term of ten years. A maximum of 800,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance in connection with these plans.
In connection with the Merger, all holders of options issued through the Director Plan and the Stock Plan had the right to retain their options or to have their options converted into cash at $25.00 per underlying share less the applicable exercise price (and taxes required to be withheld by the Company). Holders of options representing options to purchase 109,994 shares of stock retained their options while the remainder (representing 648,923 options) exercised their right to convert their options into cash.
In connection with the Merger, the Company adopted the Harborside Healthcare Corporation Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board of Directors designates which employees of the Company will be eligible to receive awards under the Stock Option Plan, and the amount, timing, and other terms and conditions applicable to such awards. Options will expire on the date determined by the Board of Directors, which will not be later than 30 days after the seventh anniversary of the grant date. Optionees will have certain rights to put to the Company, and the Company will have certain rights to call from the optionee, vested stock options upon termination of the optionee’s employment with the Company prior to an initial public offering. All options granted under the Stock Option Plan during 1998 were granted with an exercise price equal to $25.00, equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan during 1998 were to vest at the end of a seven year period or earlier if certain financial performance criteria were met. All options granted under the Stock Option Plan during 1998 and still outstanding as of September 29, 2000 were cancelled on that date in connection with the issuance of the Restricted Shares. A maximum of 1,600,000 shares have been reserved for issuance in connection with the Stock Option Plan.
On November 19, 2001, the Company granted options, with an exercise price of $1.25 per share, to purchase 905,000 shares of the Company's Class C common stock.
Information with respect to options granted under the Director Plan, the Stock Plan and the Stock Option Plan is as follows:

As of December 31, 1999 and 2000, there were 109,994 exercisable options at a weighted-average exercise price of $13.07. As of December 31, 2001, there were 336,244 exercisable options at a weighted-average exercise price of $5.12.
In 1996, the Company adopted SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS 123 requires that companies either recognize compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options, and other equity instruments based on fair value, or provide pro forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share in the notes to the financial statements. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, and has applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting
for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates as calculated in accordance with SFAS 123, the Company’s unaudited pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 would have been reduced to the amounts indicated below:

The weighted average fair value of options granted was $0 in 2001. The fair value for each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: an expected life of five years, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate of 4.75% in 2001. Expected volatility of 0% (except for 109,994 in options held by senior management; such options have an assumed volatility of 40%) was assumed for the year ended December 31, 2001.
M. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in legal actions and claims in the ordinary course of its business. It is the opinion of management, based on the advice of legal counsel, that such litigation and claims will be resolved without material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
The Company self-insures for health benefits provided to a majority of its employees. The Company maintains stop-loss insurance such that the Company’s liability for losses is limited. The Company recognizes an expense for estimated health benefit claims incurred but not reported at the end of each year.
The Company self-insures for most workers’ compensation claims. The Company maintains stop-loss insurance such that the Company’s liability for losses is limited. The Company accrues for estimated workers’ compensation claims incurred but not reported at the end of each year.
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company implemented a general and professional liability insurance program which, for the period from September 1, 1998 to August 31, 2001, limited the Company’s self-retention risk for this program to a maximum of $25,000 per year. The Company implemented a new general and professional liability program effective, September 1, 2001, which resulted in the Company maintaining an unaggregated self-insured retention of $2,000,000 per occurrence for locations outside of Florida and completely retaining risk at the Florida facilities. As of December 31, 2001, the Company maintains a Claims Reserve in the amount of $1,467,000 for incurred but not reported claims. The liabilities for incurred but not reported claims not covered by third-party insurance are discounted at 8% to obtain their present value based on estimated claim payments as determined by an independent actuary. The amount of the reserve was determined through an estimation process that used information from both the Company’s records as well as industry data. The Company uses an independent actuary to help estimate the required general and professional liability reserve. Factors reviewed include the frequency of expected claims, the average cost per claim, emerging industry trends, changes in regulatory environment and the expected effect of various operational and risk management initiatives. The Company will continue to evaluate its insurance reserve requirements on a quarterly basis. Required adjustments to the Company’s general and professional liability reserve will be recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs.
The Company owns a 75% interest in a partnership which owns one facility. The Company accounts for its investment in this partnership using the equity method. The Company has guaranteed a loan of approximately $5,600,000 made to this partnership to refinance a loan which funded the construction of the facility and provided working capital. The loan is also collateralized by additional collateral pledged by the non-affiliated partner. The loan matures on May 1, 2002 and the Company expects to refinance the loan on comparable terms prior to the maturity date. The partnership agreement states that each partner will contribute an amount in respect of any liability incurred by a partner in connection with a guarantee of the partnership’s debt, so that partners each bear their proportionate share of any liability based on their percentage ownership of the partnership.
N. DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments, for those instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value, and the estimated fair values of the financial instruments are as follows:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short effective maturity of these instruments.
Note Receivable
The carrying value of the note receivable approximates its fair value at December 31, 2000 and 2001, based on the yield of the note and the present value of expected cash flows.
Long-term Debt
The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate long-term debt is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. At December 31, 2001, the fair market value of the Company’s New Notes was approximately $53,146,000. The book value of the Company’s New Notes was $74,225,000. The Company estimates that the fair value of its remaining fixed rate debt approximates its carrying amount.
O. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
A former affiliate of the Company provides data processing services to the Company in return for a monthly fee. Total service charges under this arrangement were $1,173,000, $1,083,000 and $979,000, for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively.
At the time of the Merger, Investcorp International Inc. received a $6,000,000 management advisory and consulting service fee which is being expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the related five year agreement. The expense recognized by the Company in connection with this management agreement during the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 was $1,200,000, $1,200,000 and $1,200,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2001, $1,200,000 of the unamortized fee is classified in “Prepaid and other expenses” while $700,000 is classified as “Other assets, net”.
In December 1999, an affiliate of Investcorp S.A., provided the Company with $5,000,000 in financing under a credit agreement. The funds were provided for purposes of making an acquisition deposit on certain facilities currently financed through a capital lease (See Note I). The loan was repaid during the third quarter of 2000.
As of December 31, 2000 the net receivable due from Bowie, L.P. was approximately $0.2 million. As of December 31, 2001 the net payable due to Bowie, L.P. was approximately $0.4 million.
P. RESTRUCTURING COSTS
During the third quarter of 1999, the Company terminated its contracts to provide rehabilitation therapy services to non-affiliated long-term care facilities. The Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, had provided physical, speech and occupational services to non-affiliated skilled nursing facilities since 1995. Significant changes in the contract therapy business, primarily related to reductions in Medicare reimbursement for therapy services caused by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 led to this decision. The Company continues to provide rehabilitation therapy services to nursing facilities which it owns.
The Company’s therapy services restructuring plan required the termination of approximately sixty rehabilitation therapy services employees and the closure of two regional offices. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company recorded restructuring charges of approximately $5.7 million under this plan, most of which were non-cash in nature. The restructuring charge consisted of approximately $2.5 million of uncollectible accounts receivable, $1.5 million of unamortized goodwill, $0.7 million of employee costs and $1.0 million due to the write-off of other assets. As of December 31, 2000, the Company’s restructuring reserve was fully utilized.
Q. FACILITY REORGANIZATION COSTS
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $1,080,000 in connection with its decision to revise the marketing approach for facilities operated through subsidiaries in Florida. The Company determined that a local community-based marketing approach would better serve the needs of these facilities. The marketing approach stresses ties to the local community and required renaming these facilities in order to emphasize this approach. In connection with this effort, the Company also restructured certain of its subsidiaries effective October 1, 2001. In order to implement this strategy, the Company recognized certain non-recurring marketing, legal and other expenses.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”). Under the terms of the Employment Agreements, Mr. Guillard serves as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Dell’Anno serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, Mr. Stephan serves as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Mr. Beardsley serves as Senior Vice President of Acquisitions of the Company and Mr. Raso serves as Senior Vice President of Operations of the Company. Through March 31, 1999, Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso received minimum annual base salaries of $345,000, $225,000, $190,000, $200,000 and $140,000, respectively. The salaries of Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso were to be increased to $375,000, $240,000, $200,000, $215,000 and $150,000, respectively, effective April 1, 1999. Through December 31, 1999, Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso elected to forgo the scheduled compensation adjustments. In January 2000, the amounts of compensation due to these individuals as a result of these elective deferrals were paid by the Company, and as of January 1, 2000, the salaries of Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley, and Raso were increased to $375,000, $270,000, $200,000, $215,000 and $170,000, respectively. On March 1, 2000, Mr. Stephan’s salary was increased to $225,000. On August 11, 2001, the salaries of Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso were increased to $500,000, $350,000, $300,000, $275,000 and $200,000, respectively. Under the terms of these Employment Agreements, the salaries of each officer will be subject to further adjustment at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
The Employment Agreements also provide (i) for an annual bonus to be paid to Messrs. Guillard, Dell’Anno, Stephan, Beardsley and Raso, part of which will be based upon achievement of specific performance targets and part of which will be discretionary, in maximum amounts of 120% of base salary in the case of Mr. Guillard, 96% of base salary in the case of Mr. Dell’Anno and 78% of base salary in the cases of Messrs. Stephan, Beardsley and Raso, and (ii) that upon termination of employment prior to an initial public offering, the Company will have certain rights to call from such officers shares of Harborside Common Stock owned by such officers (including shares underlying then-exercisable stock options), and such officers will have certain rights to put such shares to an affiliate of Investcorp (subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Company).
Each officer has the right to terminate his Employment Agreement on 30 days notice. The Company has the right to terminate an Employment Agreement without obligation for severance only for Good Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreements). The Employment Agreements provide for severance benefits to be paid in the event an officer’s employment is terminated if such termination is, in the case of termination by the Company, without Good Cause, or, in the case of termination by an officer, for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreements). If the Company terminates the employment of an officer without Good Cause or the officer terminates his employment for Good Reason, the officer will be entitled to receive severance benefits which will include (i) the vesting of the pro rata portion of stock options subject to vesting in the then current year attributable to the part of the year that the officer was employed, (ii) the ability to exercise vested stock options for the period ending on the earlier of the date that is 180 days from the date his employment is terminated or the specific expiration date stated in the options, and (iii) in the case of Mr. Guillard, for the period ending 30 months after termination, in the case of Mr. Dell’Anno, for the period ending 24 months after termination, and in the cases of Messrs. Stephan, Beardsley and Raso, for the period ending 18 months after termination, payment of the officer’s compensation at the rate most recently in effect; subject to such officer’s compliance with noncompetition and nonsolicitation covenants for such 18, 24 or 30 month period, as applicable.
SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
Effective September 15, 1995, Harborside established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) to provide benefits for key employees of Harborside. Participants may defer up to 25% of their salary and bonus compensation by making contributions to the SERP. Amounts deferred by the participant are credited to his or her account and are always fully vested. Harborside matches 50% of amounts contributed until 10% of base salary has been contributed. Matching contributions made by Harborside become vested as of January 1 of the second year following the end of the plan year for which contributions were credited, provided the employee is still employed with Harborside on that date. In addition, participants will be fully vested in such matching contribution amounts in the case of death or permanent disability or at the discretion of Harborside. Participants are eligible to receive benefits distributions upon retirement or in certain pre-designated years. Participants may not receive distributions prior to a pre-designated year, except in the case of termination, death or disability or demonstrated financial hardship. Only amounts contributed by the employee may be distributed because of financial hardship. Although amounts deferred and Company matching contributions are deposited in a “rabbi trust,” they are subject to risk of loss. If Harborside becomes insolvent, the rights of participants in the SERP would be those of an unsecured general creditor of Harborside.
STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
Immediately following the Merger, the Company adopted the Harborside Healthcare Corporation Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). Initially, 806,815 shares were made available to be awarded under the Stock Option Plan, representing approximately 10% of the shares of common stock of Harborside outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, determined after giving effect to the exercise of the options issued or issuable under the Stock Option Plan. Options to purchase approximately 7.7% of such shares (determined on such basis) were granted to members of the Company’s management upon consummation of the Merger. Options for the remaining approximately 2.3% of the shares of capital stock of the Company (determined on such basis) were reserved for grant to current or future officers and employees of the Company.
The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board designates which employees of the Company are eligible to receive awards under the Stock Option Plan, and the amount, timing and other terms and conditions applicable to such awards. Future options will be exercisable in accordance with the terms established by the Board and will expire on the date determined by the Board, which will not be
later than 30 days after the seventh anniversary of the grant date. An optionee will have certain rights to put to the Company, and the Company will have certain rights to call from the optionee, vested stock options issued to the optionee under the Stock Option Plan upon termination of the optionee’s employment with the Company prior to an initial public offering.

Harborside Class A Common Stock, Harborside Class D Common Stock and Common Stock are the only classes of the Company’s common stock that have the power to vote. Holders of Harborside Class B Common Stock and Harborside Class C Common Stock do not have any voting rights, except that the holders of Harborside Class B Common Stock and Harborside Class C Common Stock have the right to vote as a class to the extent required under the laws of the State of Delaware.
As of March 1, 2002, there were 661,332 shares of Harborside Class A Common Stock, 20,000 shares of Harborside Class D Common Stock and no shares of Common Stock outstanding.

Holders of Harborside Class D Common Stock are entitled to 330 votes per share on all matters as to which stockholders may be entitled to vote pursuant to the DGCL.
As a result of the consummation of the Merger, the New Investors beneficially own all of the outstanding Harborside Class D Common Stock, constituting approximately 91% of the outstanding voting power of the Company, and pre-Merger stockholders, including certain members of management, beneficially own all of the outstanding Harborside Class A Common Stock, constituting approximately 9% of the outstanding voting power of the Company. In addition, the New Investors own 5,940,000 shares of Harborside Class B Common Stock and 640,000 shares of Harborside Class C Common Stock.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of the voting stock of the Company as of March 1, 2002.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
In December of 1999, the Company borrowed $5 million from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. to fund a payment of $5 million to the landlord of four facilities in Ohio. In return for the payment, the Company received an option to acquire the four facilities. Interest on this loan was payable quarterly in arrears and was based on a ninety-day LIBOR rate plus 275 basis points. The Company exercised its option to acquire the four facilities on June 30, 2000. On September 27, 2000, the Company assigned its purchase rights for the four facilities to an investment entity organized by Investcorp, for $5.0 million, which simultaneously acquired the four facilities. Also on that date, the Company entered into new operating leases for each of the four facilities with combined annual rent of approximately $5.9 million. The Company used the proceeds of the purchase rights assignment to repay the $5.0 million note payable from an affiliate of Investcorp S.A. On December 21, 2001, the four facilities were sold to an unaffiliated real estate investment trust and the Company entered into new operating leases with that entity.
