PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. Financial Statements

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholder

United Surgical Partners International, Inc.:

We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of United Surgical Partners International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2014, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of United Surgical Partners International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein; and in our report dated February 26, 2014, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

(1) Basis of Presentation

(a) Description of Business

United Surgical Partners International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and subsidiaries (USPI or the Company) was formed in February 1998 for the primary purpose of ownership and management of ambulatory surgery centers, surgical hospitals and related businesses. At June 30, 2014, the Company, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, operated 218 short-stay surgical facilities in the United States. Of these 218 facilities, the Company consolidates the results of 64 and accounts for 154 under the equity method. The majority of the Company’s facilities are jointly owned with local physicians and a health system partner that has other healthcare businesses in the region. At June 30, 2014, the Company had agreements with health system partner providing for joint ownership of 151 of the Company’s 218 facilities and also providing a framework for the planning and construction of additional facilities in the future. All but two of the Company’s facilities include physician owners.

The Company is subject to changes in government legislation that could impact Medicare, Medicaid, and other government reimbursement levels and is also subject to changes in payment systems that may impact the level and timing of payments for services rendered.

The Company maintains its books and records on the accrual basis of accounting, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2013 Form 10-K. It is management’s opinion that the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company operates in one reportable business segment, the ownership and operation of surgery related businesses in the United States.

 

(2) Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Business Combinations

The Company acquires interests in existing surgery centers and invests in new facilities that it develops in partnership with health system partners and local physicians. Some of these transactions result in the Company controlling the acquired entity and meet the GAAP definition of a business combination. The financial results of the acquired entities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisitions’ effective closing date. In February 2014, the Company paid cash of approximately $2.0 million and obtained control and the rights to manage a surgical facility located in Georgia. The adjustments to arrive at pro forma operating results for this acquisition are not material.

The Company controls 64 of its entities and therefore consolidates their results. However, the Company accounts for a majority (154 of its 218 facilities at June 30, 2014) as investments in unconsolidated affiliates, i.e., under the equity method, as the Company’s level of influence is significant but does not reach the threshold of controlling the entity. The majority of these investments are partnerships or limited liability companies, which

require the associated tax benefit or expense to be recorded by the partners or members.

The Company also regularly engages in the purchase and sale of equity interests with respect to its investments in unconsolidated affiliates that do not result in a change of control. These transactions are primarily the acquisitions and sales of equity interests in unconsolidated surgical facilities and the investment of additional cash in unconsolidated affiliates that need capital for acquisitions, new construction or other business growth opportunities. The cash flow impact of these transactions is classified within investing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, these transactions resulted in a cash outflow of approximately $58.5 million, which is summarized as follows:

(2) Acquisition of a noncontrolling interest in and the right to manage two surgical facilities in which the Company previously had no involvement. These facilities are jointly owned with a health system partner and local physicians.
(3) Represents the net payment related to various other purchases and sales of equity interests and contributions of cash to equity method investees.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received $22.0 million, which represents a return of capital, from one of its unconsolidated affiliates.

 

(3) Noncontrolling Interests

The Company controls and therefore consolidates the results of 64 of its 218 facilities. Similar to its investments in unconsolidated affiliates, the Company regularly engages in the purchase and sale of equity interests with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries that do not result in a change of control. These transactions are accounted for as equity transactions, as they are undertaken among the Company, its consolidated subsidiaries, and noncontrolling interests. Their cash flow effect is classified within financing activities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company purchased and sold redeemable equity interests in various consolidated subsidiaries in amounts totaling $3.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The basis difference between the Company’s carrying amount and the proceeds received or paid in each transaction is recorded as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital. The impact of these transactions is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Were certain fundamental regulatory changes to occur, the Company could be obligated, under the terms of its investees’ partnership and operating agreements, to purchase some or all of the noncontrolling interests related to the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. These repurchase requirements are limited to the portions of its facilities that are owned by physicians who perform surgery at the Company’s facilities and would be triggered by regulatory changes making the existing ownership structure illegal. While the Company is not aware of events that would make the occurrence of such a change probable, regulatory changes are outside the control of the Company. Accordingly, the noncontrolling interests subject to these repurchase provisions have been classified outside of equity and are carried as “noncontrolling interests — redeemable” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is summarized below (in thousands):

(4) Other Investments

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of USPI and subsidiaries the Company controls, usually indicated by majority ownership. The Company also determines if it is the primary beneficiary of (and therefore should consolidate) any entity whose operations it does not control with voting rights.

The Company has ownership in an entity that operates and manages ten surgical facilities in the Houston, Texas area. Despite not holding a majority voting interest, the Company is the primary beneficiary because the Company is able to make the decisions that are most significant to the operations of the entity and has provided all of the funding for the entity, which the entity has used to acquire surgical facilities. The Company is entitled to a majority of the entity’s earnings until the Company has received a specified return on the investment. The Company has no exposure for the entity’s losses beyond this investment. Accordingly, the Company did not provide any financial or other support to the entity that it was not previously contractually required to provide during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. At June 30, 2014 and 2013, the total assets of this entity were $122.8 million and $101.7 million, and the total liabilities owed to third parties were $23.3 million and $24.1 million, respectively. Such amounts are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

 

(5) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability. The Company uses fair value measurements based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities (Level 3), depending on the nature of the item being valued. The estimated fair values may not be representative of actual values that will be realized or settled in the future.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is determined by either (i) estimation of the discounted future cash flows of the debt at rates currently quoted or offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by its lenders, or (ii) quoted market prices at the reporting date for the traded debt securities. At both June 30, 2014 and 2013, both the aggregate carrying amount and the estimated fair value of long-term debt was approximately $1.5 billion. The fair value of debt is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

At June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had approximately $10.3 million and $10.8 million, respectively, of marketable securities, which are held by the Company’s wholly-owned insurance subsidiary. These investments are used in connection with its retained professional and general liability risks and are not available for general corporate purposes. The marketable securities consist of U.S. Treasury and corporate debt, are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, and are based on closing market prices of the investments when applicable, or alternatively, valuations utilizing market data and other observable inputs. Realized gains and losses on the sale of these securities are reclassified out of other comprehensive income and into “Other, net” on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

(6) Equity-based Compensation

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation, such as stock options and other stock-based awards to employees and directors, at fair value. The fair value of the compensation is measured at the date of grant and recognized as expense over the recipient’s requisite service period.

The Company’s equity-based compensation consists primarily of stock options and restricted stock granted by parent to certain employees and members of the board of directors. The fair value of stock options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes formula based on assumptions derived from historical experience.

(7) Related Party Transactions

Included in general and administrative expenses are management fees payable to an affiliate of Welsh Carson, which holds a controlling interest in the Company, in the amount of $0.5 million and $1.0 million in both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Such amounts accrue at an annual rate of $2.0 million. The Company pays $1.0 million in cash per year with the unpaid balance due and payable upon a change in control. At June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $7.5 million accrued related to such management fee, of which $0.2 million is included in other current liabilities and $7.2 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

(8) Commitments and Contingencies

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had issued guarantees of the indebtedness and other obligations of its investees to third parties, which could potentially require the Company to make maximum aggregate payments totaling approximately $60.8 million. Of the total, $10.0 million relates to the obligations of consolidated subsidiaries, whose obligations are included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and related disclosures, and $47.8 million of the remaining $50.8 million relates to the obligations of unconsolidated affiliated companies, whose obligations are not included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and related disclosures. The remaining $3.0 million represents guarantees of the obligations of two facilities which have been sold. The Company has full recourse to the buyers with respect to these amounts.

The Company has recorded long-term liabilities totaling approximately $0.6 million related to the guarantees the Company has issued to unconsolidated affiliates on or after January 1, 2003, and has not recorded any liabilities related to guarantees issued prior to that date. Generally, these arrangements (a) consist of guarantees of real estate and equipment financing, (b) are secured by the related property and equipment, (c) require payments by the Company, when the collateral is insufficient, in the event of a default by the investee primarily obligated under the financing, (d) expire as the underlying debt matures at various dates through 2030, and (e) provide no recourse for the Company to recover any amounts from third parties. The Company also has $1.6 million of letters of credit outstanding.

 

(9) Subsequent Events

In July 2014, the Company paid approximately $51.1 million in cash to acquire a noncontrolling interest in and right to manage a surgical hospital in South Dakota. The facility is jointly owned with a new health system partner and local physicians. Also, in July 2014, the Company paid approximately $27.0 million in cash to acquire a noncontrolling interest in and right to manage a surgical facility in New Jersey. The facility is jointly owned with local physicians. In addition, the Company has entered into letters of intent with various entities regarding possible acquisition, joint venture, development or other transactions. These possible acquisitions, joint ventures, developments of new facilities or other transactions are in various stages of negotiation.

During July 2014, the Company borrowed $47.0 million, and subsequently repaid $10.0 million, on its revolving line of credit to partially fund the acquisitions made in July 2014.

 

(10) Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

The following information is presented as required by regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). None of this information is routinely prepared for use by management. The operating and investing activities of the separate legal entities included in the consolidated financial statements are fully interdependent and integrated. Accordingly, the operating results of the separate legal entities are not representative of what the operating results would be on a stand-alone basis. Revenues and operating expenses of the separate legal entities include intercompany charges for management and other services.

The Company’s $440.0 million of 9.0% senior unsecured notes due in April 2020 (Notes) were issued in a private offering on April 3, 2012 and were subsequently registered as publicly traded securities through a Form S-4 declared effective by the SEC on September 5, 2012. The exchange offer was completed in October 2012. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company; however, the Notes are guaranteed by most of the Company’s direct and indirect 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries. USPI, which issued the Notes, does not have independent assets or operations. USPI’s investees in which USPI owns less than 100% are not guarantors of the obligation. The financial positions and results of operations (below, in thousands) of the respective guarantors are

(11) New Accounting Pronouncement

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The ASU permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that the ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

Overview

United Surgical Partners International is an experienced and trusted partner in some of the nation’s most successful surgical networks. We provide strategic solutions for physicians, physician networks, leading health systems and those paying for the cost of health care services, such as employers, insurance companies and government programs.

Our portfolio includes 218 short-stay surgical facilities in 26 states. In these facilities, which are licensed as ambulatory surgery centers or hospitals, we serve almost 10,000 physicians and almost one million patients each year. We maintain strategic joint venture relationships with approximately 4,000 physicians and over 50 prominent health systems. All but two of our facilities are co-owned with local physicians, and 151 are in strategic ventures with a health system. During the first six months of 2014, we acquired five facilities, consisting of one each in Georgia, Indiana, and New Jersey, and two in Texas. In addition, in July 2014 we acquired a noncontrolling interest in a hospital in South Dakota and an additional facility in New Jersey.

Our facilities specialize in non-emergency surgical cases. Due in part to advancements in medical technology, and additionally due to the lower cost structure and greater efficiency that are attainable in a specialized outpatient site, the volume and complexity of surgical cases performed in an outpatient setting has steadily increased over the past three decades. We believe recent national focus on controlling the cost of health

care will lead to further opportunities for high quality, low cost providers. Our strategy is to further enhance our value to our partners, employers, payors and patient populations in ways that build upon our historic experience and success, both in our existing facilities as well as additional facilities or other businesses.

Our facilities’ primary income source is a fee from patients, insurance companies or other payors in exchange for providing the facility and related services a surgeon requires in order to perform a surgical case. After providing for the related expenses of the case, including the nursing staff, supplies and property costs, each facility distributes its profit to us and the other owners. In addition, USPI earns a monthly fee from each facility we operate in exchange for managing its operations. How these income streams affect USPI’s financial statements depends on whether we consolidate each respective facility entity, which as described above generally includes other owners in addition to us. Because of this variation in ownership levels and governance, we do not consolidate 154 of the 218 facilities that we operate, instead accounting for our investments in them under the equity method. To help analyze our results of operations, we disclose an operating measure we refer to as systemwide revenue growth, which includes both consolidated and unconsolidated (i.e., equity method) facilities. While revenues of our unconsolidated facilities are not recorded as revenues by USPI, we believe the information is important in understanding our financial performance because these revenues are the basis for calculating our management services revenues and, together with the expenses of our unconsolidated facilities, are the basis for our equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. In addition, we disclose growth rates and operating margins (both consolidated and unconsolidated) for the facilities that were operational in both the current and prior year periods, a group we refer to as same store facilities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of consolidated financial statements under GAAP requires our management to make certain estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also impact the reported amount of net earnings during any period. Estimates are based on information available as of the date financial statements are prepared. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results and that require management’s most subjective judgments. Our critical accounting policies and estimates include our policies and estimates regarding consolidation, revenue recognition, income taxes and intangible assets.

Our determination of whether to consolidate an entity in which we hold an investment, account for it under the equity method, or carry it at cost has a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements because of the typical business model under which we operate, where the majority of the facilities we operate are partially owned by health system partners, physicians, and other parties. These quarterly consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same consolidation policy as that used in our latest audited consolidated financial statements.

We also consider our accounting policy regarding intangible assets to be a critical accounting policy given the significance of intangible assets as compared to the total assets of our company. There have been no significant changes in our application of GAAP to intangible assets since the preparation of our latest audited consolidated financial statements.

Our revenue recognition and accounts receivable policy and our method of accounting for income taxes involve significant judgments and estimates. There have been no significant changes in assumptions, estimates, and judgments in the preparation of these quarterly consolidated financial statements from the assumptions, estimates, and judgments used in the preparation of our latest audited consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions, Equity Investments and Development Projects

We acquire interests in existing surgery centers and invest in new facilities that we develop in partnership with health systems and local physicians. Some of these transactions result in our controlling the acquired entity and meet the GAAP definition of a business combination. The financial results of the acquired entities are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisitions’ effective closing date. In February 2014, we paid cash of approximately $2.0 million and obtained control of and the right to manage a surgical facility located in Georgia.

We control and therefore consolidate the results of 64 of our 218 facilities. Similar to our investments in unconsolidated affiliates, we regularly engage in the purchase and sale of equity interests in our consolidated subsidiaries that do not result in a change of control. These transactions are accounted for as equity transactions, as they are undertaken among us, our consolidated subsidiaries, and noncontrolling interests. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we purchased and sold equity interests in various consolidated subsidiaries in amounts totaling $3.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The difference between our carrying amount and the proceeds received or paid in each transaction is recorded as an adjustment to our additional paid-in capital. These transactions resulted in a $7.8 million decrease to our additional paid-in capital during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

We also regularly engage in the purchase and sale of equity interests with respect to our investments in unconsolidated affiliates that do not result in a change of control. These transactions are primarily the acquisitions and sales of equity interests in unconsolidated surgical facilities and the investment of additional cash in surgical facilities under development. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, these transactions results in a net cash outflow of approximately $58.5 million, which is summarized below:

Sources of Revenue

Revenues primarily include the following:

 

   

net patient service revenues of the facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, which are typically those facilities in which we have ownership interests of greater than 50% or otherwise maintain effective control or are the primary beneficiary;

 

   

management and contract service revenues, consisting of the fees that we earn from managing the facilities that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes and the fees we earn from providing certain consulting and contracted services to other healthcare providers. Our consolidated revenues and expenses do not include the management fees we earn from operating the facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes as those fees are charged to subsidiaries and thus eliminate in consolidation.

Executive Summary

Our strategy continues to include growing the profits of our existing facilities, developing new facilities with health system partners, and adding other facilities through acquisition. During the first half of 2014, we added five facilities, consisting of two in Texas and one each in Georgia, Indiana, and New Jersey. In addition, in July 2014 we added one facility in South Dakota and one facility in New Jersey.

Our revenues increased 4% and 2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, largely driven by increases in revenues per procedure and additionally by revenues of acquired facilities. Our same store facilities’ revenues grew 3% in the second quarter and 2% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. While we experienced a shift to more complex cases in both quarters, the second quarter represented a sequential improvement in case volumes compared to the first quarter, with same store cases improving to flat versus prior year after being down 3% in the first quarter. We believe many of the cases lost to severe weather in the first quarter were rescheduled. Overall, we believe our volumes continue to be adversely affected early in the year by changes in benefit design that result in patients bearing more of the cost of care, and we continue to focus on controlling costs. Same store facility operating margins were up 100 basis points for the second quarter. In addition, we invested more in general and administrative expenses in the first half of 2014 than in the first half of 2013, as we committed additional resources to deploying strategic initiatives that we believe will benefit our company long-term.

Our systemwide revenues include all facilities that we operate; our revenues only include consolidated facilities, which represent less than one-third of our facilities. Our net earnings from a facility, whether consolidated or equity method, are driven by the same factors: the facility’s underlying profits and revenues and our ownership percentage. Accordingly, to assess our overall operating results we often utilize systemwide measures, which include all facilities, as well as same store measures, which include all facilities that were operational in both the current and prior year periods. These measures were mixed during the first six months of 2014. During the first quarter of 2014, same store revenues and systemwide revenues were essentially flat. During the second quarter of 2014, our same store revenues increased 3%, while our systemwide revenues increased 5%. The increase in systemwide revenues is due to same-store growth and acquisitions that were made in 2013 and 2014.

Our Business and Key Measures

We operate surgical facilities in partnership with local physicians and, in the majority of facilities, a health system partner. We hold an ownership interest in each facility, each being operated through a separate legal entity owned by us, the health systems and physicians. We operate each facility on a day-to-day basis through a management services contract. Our sources of earnings from each facility consist of:

 

   

our share of each facility’s net income or loss, which is computed by multiplying the facility’s net income or loss times the percentage of each facility’s equity interests owned by us; and

 

   

management services revenues, computed as a percentage of each facility’s net revenues (often net of bad debt expense).

Our role as an owner and day-to-day manager provides us with significant influence over the operations of each facility. In a majority of our facilities (currently 154 of our 218 facilities), this influence does not represent control of the facility, so we account for our investment in the facility under the equity method, i.e., as an unconsolidated affiliate. We control the remaining 64 of our facilities and account for these investments as consolidated subsidiaries.

Our net earnings from a facility are the same under either method, but the classification of those earnings differs. For consolidated subsidiaries, our financial statements reflect 100% of the revenues and expenses of the subsidiaries, after the elimination of intercompany amounts. The net profit attributable to owners other than us is classified within “net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.”

For unconsolidated affiliates, our consolidated statements of income reflect our earnings in only two line items:

 

   

equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates: our share of the net income or loss of each facility, which is based on the facilities’ net income or loss and the percentage of the facility’s outstanding equity interests owned by us; and

 

   

management and administrative services revenues: income we earn in exchange for managing the day-to-day operations of each facility, usually quantified as a percentage of each facility’s net revenues less bad debt expense.

In summary, our operating income is driven by the performance of all facilities we operate and by our ownership interest in those facilities, but our individual revenue and expense line items only contain consolidated businesses, which represent less than one-third of our facilities. This translates to trends in operating income that often do not correspond with changes in revenues and expenses. The divergence in these relationships is particularly significant when our strategy is heavily weighted to unconsolidated affiliates, as it has been in recent years. Accordingly, we review several types of information in order to monitor and analyze our results of operations, including:

 

   

The results of operations of our unconsolidated affiliates

 

   

Our average ownership share in the facilities we operate; and

 

   

Facility operating indicators, such as systemwide revenue growth, same store revenue growth, and same store operating margins.

(1) Our weighted average percentage ownership in our unconsolidated affiliates is calculated as our equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates divided by the total net income or loss of unconsolidated affiliates for each respective period. This is a non-GAAP measure but management believes it provides further useful information about our involvement in equity method investments.
(2) Our weighted average percentage ownership in our unconsolidated affiliates is calculated as the total debt of each unconsolidated affiliate, multiplied by the percentage ownership we held in the affiliate as of the end of each respective period, divided by the total debt of all of the unconsolidated affiliates as of the end of each respective period. This is a non-GAAP measure but management believes it provides further useful information about our involvement in equity method investments.

As shown above, USPI’s net patient service revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $5.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The net patient service revenues of our unconsolidated affiliates increased $24.3 million and $24.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. These variances are analyzed more extensively below under “Revenues.”

Our Ownership Interests in the Facilities We Operate

Our earnings are predominantly driven by our investments in the facilities we operate, so we focus on the underlying businesses’ growth rates together with the percentage ownership interest we hold in them to help us understand our results of operations. Our average ownership interest in the surgical facilities we operate is as follows:

(2) Computed for consolidated facilities by dividing (a) the aggregate net income or loss of surgical facilities we operate less our total noncontrolling interests in income or loss of consolidated subsidiaries by (b) the aggregate net income or loss of our consolidated surgical facilities.
(3) Computed in total by dividing our share of the facilities’ net income or loss, defined as the sum of (a) in footnotes (1) and (2), by the aggregate net income or loss of our surgical facilities, defined as the sum of (b) in footnotes (1) and (2).

Table of Contents

Our average ownership interest for each group of facilities is determined by many factors, including the ownership levels we negotiate in our acquisition and development activities, the relative performance of facilities in which we own percentages higher or lower than average, and other factors. As described earlier, our increased focus on partnering our facilities with health system partners, in addition to physicians, generally leads to our accounting for more facilities under the equity method (unconsolidated). We generally have a lower ownership percentage in an equity method facility as compared to a consolidated facility.

Revenues

Our consolidated net revenues increased 4% and 2% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The table below quantifies several significant items impacting year over year growth.

Facility Growth

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, our systemwide revenue increased 5% and 3%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The increase in systemwide revenues is due to same-store growth and acquisitions that were made in 2013 and 2014. On a year-to-date basis, our same store case volumes were down 2% to prior year, but a shift to more complex cases has resulted in higher net revenue per case, driving 2% same store revenue growth for the first six months of 2014.

Second quarter same-store case volumes were essentially flat versus prior year, after being down 3% in the first quarter, due in part to some cases lost to severe weather in the first quarter being rescheduled. We believe a continuing shift to greater patient responsibility for health care costs, together with increased competition in some markets, adversely affected our case volume in both the first and second quarters.

Joint Ventures With Health System Partners

The addition of new facilities continues to be more heavily weighted to surgical facilities with a health system partner, both as we initiate joint venture agreements with new systems and as we add facilities to our existing arrangements. Facilities have been added to hospital joint ventures through construction of new facilities (de novos), acquisitions of facilities and through our contribution of our equity interests in existing facilities into a hospital joint venture structure, effectively creating three-way joint ventures by sharing our ownership in these facilities with a health system partner while leaving the existing physician ownership intact. We continue to explore affiliating more of our facilities with health system partners. Often these affiliations are initiated in markets where we already operate other facilities with a health system partner, but we also affiliate our facilities with new partners.

The following table summarizes the facilities we operated as of June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Facility Operating Margins

Same store facility operating margins increased 100 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and decreased 50 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2014. As described above, our same store revenues improved during the second quarter, and this together with cost control efforts led to higher overall margins. This relationship can change depending on the nature of cases performed and how it affects staffing, supplies and other direct costs of performing a case.

(1) Operating margin is calculated as operating income divided by total revenues. This table aggregates all of the same store facilities we operate using 100% of their results. This does not represent the overall margin for our operations because we have a variety of ownership levels in the facilities we operate, and facilities open for less than a year are excluded from same store calculations.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013

As more fully discussed in “Revenues,” our consolidated revenues increased by $6.4 million, or 4.1%, to $161.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $155.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in consolidated revenues was split evenly between acquisitions and increases in same store net revenues.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $4.7 million, or 19.9%, to $28.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $23.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in equity in earnings was driven by acquisitions ($1.5 million), increases from same store facilities ($1.9 million) and our share of the net gain on the sale of real estate ($1.3 million). The number of facilities we account for under the equity method increased by six from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014.

Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $0.6 million, or 0.5%, to $111.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $111.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase primarily resulted from our acquisition of facilities during late 2013 and 2014, and increased investment in general and administrative expenses related to deploying our strategic initiatives. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, our operating expenses were negatively affected by a $1.7 million loss on the consolidation of a hospital and a $3.2 million impairment of a management contract.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.7 million or 9.0%, to $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $7.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of revenues was 4.0% and 4.6% during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Operating income increased $11.1 million, or 18.3%, to $71.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $60.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, and increased as a percentage of revenues to 44.4% from 39.0%. This increase was driven by the increase in net revenues and equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates described above.

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $0.6 million, or 2.8% to $23.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $24.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease is due to lower overall debt balances at June 30, 2014 and due to fees we paid in April 2013 related to the refinancing we completed in April 2013.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred a loss on the early retirement of debt of $5.5 million as a result of the repricing we completed on April 4, 2013. The amount is comprised of finance and legal fees and the write-off of previously incurred debt issuance costs.

Table of Contents

Provision for income taxes was $9.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our effective tax rates (based on pretax earnings attributable to USPI’s stockholder) were 35% and 43% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Net income increased $13.0 million to $38.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $25.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Net income attributable to USPI’s common stockholder increased $11.1 million to $18.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase is attributable to the increases in net revenue and equity in earnings in unconsolidated affiliates as discussed above, and the loss on the early retirement of debt of $5.5 million that did not recur in 2014.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

As more fully discussed in “Revenues,” our consolidated revenues increased by $6.6 million, or 2.2%, to $306.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $300.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in consolidated revenues was due to acquisitions and consolidation of a facility of $10.1 million, which was offset by a decline in operations of approximately $2.7 million.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $3.2 million, or 7.6%, to $46.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in equity in earnings was driven by acquisitions ($1.9 million) and our share of the net gain on the sale of real estate ($1.3 million). The number of facilities we account for under the equity method increased by six from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014

Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $10.4 million, or 5.0%, to $220.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $210.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase primarily resulted from our acquisition of facilities during late 2013 and 2014, and increased investment in general and administrative expenses related to deploying our strategic initiatives. We also recorded an impairment charge of $0.7 million related to one of our management contracts in 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, our operating expenses were negatively affected by a $1.7 million loss on the consolidation of a hospital and a $3.2 million impairment of a management contract.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.1 million, or 7.6%, to $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of revenues, decreased slightly to 4.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 4.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Operating income increased $0.5 million to $119.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $118.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and decreased as a percentage of revenues to 38.9% from 39.6%, respectively. This increase was driven by the increase in net revenues and equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates described above, which was mostly offset by the increases in operating expense also discussed earlier.

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $6.1 million, or 11.7% to $46.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $52.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease is due to lower overall debt balances at June 30, 2014 and due to fees we paid in February and March 2013 related to the refinancing we completed in April 2013.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred a loss on the early retirement of debt of $5.5 million as a result of the repricing we completed on April 4, 2013. The amount is comprised of finance and legal fees and the write-off of previously incurred debt issuance costs.

Provision for income taxes was $13.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Our effective tax rates (based on pretax earnings attributable to USPI’s stockholder) were 36% and 41% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Total loss from discontinued operations was $0.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and relates to the final disposal of fixed assets related to a previously sold entity.

Net income increased $8.8 million, or 17.5%, to $59.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $50.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Net income attributable to USPI’s common stockholder increased $8.7 million to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we generated $105.9 million of cash flows from operating activities as compared to $77.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013. Cash flows from operating activities increased $28.5 million, or 36.8%, from the prior year period, primarily due to the timing of distributions from our unconsolidated affiliates and additionally as a result of our increased earnings.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, our net cash used in investing activities was $44.5 million, consisting of $60.6 million for net purchases of new businesses and equity interests, which was partially offset by a $22.0 million return of capital from an unconsolidated affiliate. We purchased $5.2 million of property and equipment, which excludes $3.7 million of property and equipment acquired under capital lease arrangements. Approximately $1.9 million of property and equipment purchases were related to investing in infrastructure of existing facilities and the remaining $7.0 million represented maintenance capital expenditures. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $71.9 million, which was driven primarily by distributions to noncontrolling interests of $36.8 million, a decrease in cash held on behalf of our noncontrolling interests of $23.4 million and net payments on long-term debt of $10.1 million.

Cash and cash equivalents were $68.3 million at June 30, 2014 as compared to $78.7 million at December 31, 2013, and the net working capital deficit was $95.5 million at June 30, 2014 as compared to $102.4 million at December 31, 2013. The overall negative working capital position at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 is primarily the result of $161.9 million and $185.0 million due to affiliates, respectively, associated with our practice of holding our unconsolidated facilities’ cash until these amounts are distributed to our partners, typically on a monthly or quarterly basis. As discussed below, we believe we have sufficient availability under our credit facility, together with our operating cash flows, to service our obligations.

Debt

We intend to fund our ongoing capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operations and borrowings under our $125.0 million revolving credit facility. We believe that funds generated by operations and funds available under the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements over at least the next 12 months. However, in the future, we may have to incur additional debt or issue additional debt or equity securities from time to time. We may be unable to obtain sufficient financing on satisfactory terms or at all.

In April 2012, we amended our credit facility. The amended credit facility provided borrowings consisting of $144.4 million in non-extended term loans which were to mature in April 2014; $312.4 million in extended term loans maturing in April 2017; $375.0 million in a new term loan maturing in April 2019; and $125.0 million

under a new revolving facility maturing in April 2017. The term loans require quarterly principal payments of 0.25% of the outstanding balance as of April 3, 2012 with the remaining balances due in 2017 for the extended term loan and in 2019 for the new term loan. No principal payments are required on the revolving credit facility until its maturity in 2017. In December 2012, we borrowed an additional $150.0 million in new term loans under the amended credit facility. This borrowing requires quarterly principal payments of 0.25% of the outstanding balance and also matures in April 2019. We pay 0.50% per annum on the daily-unused commitment of the new revolving credit facility. We also pay a quarterly participation fee of 2.13% per annum related to outstanding letters of credit.

In February 2013, we further amended our credit facility and committed to borrow $150.0 million, which was used to repay the non-extended term loan of $144.4 million and related fees and expenses. The transaction was completed on April 4, 2013. The new term loan matures in April 2019. The amendment also changed the interest rate charged on the term loans to LIBOR plus a margin of 3.50% to 3.75%.

At June 30, 2014, we had $967.5 million outstanding under the amended credit facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.6%. At June 30, 2014, we had $123.4 million available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility, representing the revolving facility’s $125.0 million capacity, net of $1.6 million of outstanding letters of credit. In July 2014, we borrowed $47.0 million under the revolver, along with cash on hand, to fund the acquisition of two surgical facilities in July 2014. In July 2014, we also repaid $10.0 million of outstanding balance on the revolver.

The amended credit facility is guaranteed by USPI Holdings, Inc. and its current and future directly and indirectly wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, and borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in all real and personal property of these subsidiaries, as well as a first priority pledge of our capital stock and the capital stock of each of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. Additionally, the credit facility contains various restrictive covenants, including financial covenants that limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to borrow money or guarantee other indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends, enter into sale-leaseback transactions or issue and sell capital stock. We believe we were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2014.

In April 2012, we issued $440.0 million of 9.0% senior unsecured notes due in April 2020. Interest on the outstanding notes is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and commenced on October 1, 2012. At June 30, 2014, we had $440.0 million of the senior unsecured notes outstanding. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of our company; however, the notes are guaranteed by most of our current and future direct and indirect 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries. Additionally, the notes contain various restrictive covenants, including financial covenants that limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to borrow money or guarantee other indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, sells assets, pay dividends, enter into sale-leaseback transactions or issue and sell capital stock. We believe we were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2014.

Debt at Operating Subsidiaries

Our operating subsidiaries, many of which have noncontrolling investors who share in the cash flow of these entities, have debt consisting primarily of capitalized lease obligations. This debt is generally non-recourse to USPI, the parent company, and is generally secured by the assets of those operating entities. The total amount of these obligations, which was approximately $60.0 million at June 30, 2014, is included in our consolidated balance sheet because the borrower or obligated entity meets the requirements for consolidated financial reporting. Our average percentage ownership, weighted based on the individual subsidiary’s amount of debt and capitalized lease obligations, of these consolidated subsidiaries was approximately 44% at June 30, 2014. Similar to our consolidated facilities, our unconsolidated facilities have debts, including capitalized lease obligations, that are generally non-recourse to USPI. With respect to our unconsolidated facilities, these debts are not included in our consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2014, the total debt on the balance sheets of our unconsolidated affiliates was approximately $369.7 million. Our average percentage ownership, weighted based on the individual affiliate’s amount of debt, of these unconsolidated affiliates was approximately 26% at June 30, 2014. USPI or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries had collectively guaranteed $43.1 million of the $369.7 million in total debt of our unconsolidated affiliates as of June 30, 2014. In addition, our unconsolidated affiliates have obligations under operating leases, of which USPI or a wholly owned subsidiary had guaranteed $7.7 million as of June 30, 2014. Of the total $50.8 million of guarantees related to unconsolidated affiliates, approximately $3.0 million represents guarantees of obligations of two facilities which have been sold. We have full recourse to the buyers with respect to the $3.0 million related to the sold facilities.

Related Party Transactions

Included in general and administrative expenses are management fees payable to an affiliate of Welsh Carson, which holds a controlling interest in our company, in the amount of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for both the three month and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Such amounts accrue at an annual rate of $2.0 million. We pay $1.0 million in cash per year with the unpaid balance due and payable upon a

change in control. At June 30, 2014, we had approximately $7.5 million accrued related to such management fee, of which $0.2 million is included in other current liabilities and $7.2 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

New Accounting Pronouncement

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for our company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The ASU permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

 

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in interest rates and other relevant market risks. Our primary market risk is a change in interest rates associated with variable-rate borrowings. Historically, we have not held or issued derivative financial instruments other than the use of variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps for portions of our borrowings under credit facilities with commercial lenders as required by credit agreements. Currently, we have no interest rate swaps in effect. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Our financing arrangements with many commercial lenders are based on the spread over Prime or LIBOR. At June 30, 2014, approximately $474.8 million of our outstanding debt was in fixed rate instruments and the remaining $967.5 million was in variable rate instruments. Accordingly, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in additional annual expense of approximately $9.7 million.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by applicable SEC rules) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in bringing to their attention on a timely basis material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined by applicable SEC rules) that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
