Certain statements contained herein that are not descriptions of historical facts are “forward-looking” statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), including statements related to anticipated refinancing transactions, first quarter and full year 2011 business outlook. Because such statements include risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements due to factors including the following:
• |
additional changes in government reimbursement
for our services, including changes that will result from the expiration of the
moratorium for long term acute care hospitals established by the SCHIP
Extension Act of 2007, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act may result in a reduction in net operating
revenues, an increase in costs and a reduction in profitability;
|
• |
the failure of our specialty hospitals to
maintain their Medicare certifications as such may cause our net operating
revenues and profitability to decline;
|
• |
the failure of our facilities operated as
“hospitals within hospitals” or HIHs, to qualify as hospitals
separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and
profitability to decline;
|
• |
a government investigation or assertion that
Select has violated applicable regulations may result in sanctions or
reputational harm and increased costs;
|
• |
acquisitions or joint ventures may prove
difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources or expose us to unforeseen
liabilities;
|
• |
private third-party payors for our services
may undertake future cost containment initiatives that limit our future net
operating revenues and profitability;
|
• |
the failure to maintain established
relationships with the physicians in the areas Select serves could reduce our
net operating revenues and profitability;
|
• |
shortages in qualified nurses or therapists
could increase our operating costs significantly;
|
• |
competition may limit our ability to grow and
result in a decrease in our net operating revenues and profitability;
|
• |
the loss of key members of our management team
could significantly disrupt our operations;
|
• |
the effect of claims asserted against us could
subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities; and in the future Select may
not be able to obtain insurance at a reasonable price; and
|
• |
other factors discussed from time to time in
our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including factors
under the heading “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K.
