Acadia Healthcare Reports Third Quarter Adjusted Earnings Increase to

$0.46 per Diluted Share on Revenue of $294.5 million

 

 

Announces Definitive Agreement for $1.175 Billion Acquisition of CRC Health Group

 

 

Raises 2014 Guidance for Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share to Range of

$1.52 to $1.53 from Previous Range of $1.44 to $1.46

FRANKLIN, Tenn. October 29, 2014 – Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. For the quarter, revenue increased 59.4% to $294.5 million from $184.7 million for the third quarter of 2013. Income from continuing operations was $25.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014 compared with $14.5 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted income from continuing operations rose 79.5% to $27.3 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $15.2 million for the third quarter of 2013, while adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share increased 53.3% to $0.46 from $0.30. For the third quarter of 2014, the adjusted results exclude transaction-related expenses of $6.2 million and a gain on foreign currency derivatives of $1.5 million that was related to Acadia’s recent acquisition of Partnerships in Care (PiC). For the third quarter of 2013, the adjusted results exclude transaction-related expenses of $1.0 million. Weighted average shares outstanding increased 18.0% for the third quarter of 2014 from the third quarter of 2013 primarily due to the Company’s public equity offering in June, 2014. A reconciliation of all GAAP and non-GAAP financial results in this release is on pages 8 and 9.

Revenue for the first nine months of 2014 was $709.7 million, a 35.6% increase from $523.4 million for the first nine months of 2013. Income from continuing operations was $60.9 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2014 compared with $30.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the same period in 2013. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $57.9 million for the first nine months of 2014, up 48.0% from $39.1 million for the first nine months of 2013, while adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share increased 37.2% to $1.07 from $0.78. The adjusted results exclude a gain on foreign currency derivatives of $15.3 million for the first nine months of 2014, debt extinguishment costs of $9.4 million for the first nine months of 2013 and transaction-related expenses of $10.8 million and $3.8 million for the first nine months of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding increased 7.4% for the first nine months of 2014 from the same period in 2013.

“Acadia achieved very strong profitable growth for the third quarter of 2014, as both our organic and acquisition growth strategies produced strong results,” said Joey Jacobs, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Acadia. “We were pleased to complete the acquisition of PiC during the third quarter, which is the U.K.’s second-largest independent behavioral healthcare provider. The PiC transaction added 23 inpatient psychiatric facilities with over 1,200 licensed beds to Acadia’s operations and was meaningfully accretive to our third quarter results. In addition, during the third quarter we acquired McCallum Place, an eating disorder treatment facility with 85 beds offering residential, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient treatment programs located in St. Louis, Missouri, and Austin, Texas.

“Today, we are also announcing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of CRC Health Group Inc., the nation’s largest specialized behavioral healthcare provider. CRC, headquartered in Cupertino, California, provides substance abuse treatment and other specialty programs through 36 residential facilities and 84 comprehensive treatment facilities that currently treat approximately 40,000 patients daily. These facilities are expected to produce aggregate revenues for 2014 of approximately $450 million and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $115 million. Consideration for the acquisition of privately held CRC is $1.175 billion, consisting of up to approximately 6.3 million shares of Acadia’s common stock and the assumption of CRC’s debt. We expect to complete this accretive transaction, which is subject to normal closing conditions, in the first quarter of 2015.

“Including the PiC and McCallum Place transactions in the third quarter, Acadia completed five acquisitions in the 12 months ended September 30, 2014, that brought 27 facilities and more than 1,500 licensed beds to the Company. During this 12 month period, we also added approximately 410 new beds to existing facilities and through the opening of two de novo facilities and one facility that was under construction when acquired in the second quarter last year. We added 40 of these new beds during the third quarter of 2014, including seven new beds within PiC.

“The new beds added to existing U.S. facilities in our same facility base since the end of the third quarter last year significantly contributed to same facility revenue growth of 9.9% in our operations for the third quarter of 2014. We also continuously work to drive same-facility revenue growth through facility specific initiatives to generate additional revenue growth in every facility. The growth in same-facility revenue for the third quarter reflected an 11.2% increase in patient days for the quarter and 1.2% lower revenue per patient day.

“The substantial increase in same facility revenue growth for the third quarter, combined with increased operating efficiencies, produced a 130 basis point increase in our same facility EBITDA margin to 25.8%. The Company’s adjusted consolidated EBITDA increased 69.1% to $65.1 million for the third quarter of 2014, which is 22.1% of revenue compared with 20.8% for the third quarter last year.

“We continue to evaluate potential acquisitions in the highly fragmented behavioral healthcare markets in the U.S. and the U.K., as well as to add new beds in existing facilities. We are well positioned to finance these growth strategies, with availability under our revolving credit facility of approximately $136 million at September 30, 2014 and with substantial net cash flows from continuing operations, which totaled approximately $40 million for the third quarter and $69 million for the first nine months of 2014. Our ratio of total net debt to trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA was approximately 4.0 at the end of the third quarter compared with 4.2 at the end of the second quarter of 2014.”

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties and our future results could differ significantly from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation, (i) Acadia’s ability to complete acquisitions, including the acquisition of CRC, and successfully integrate the operations of acquired facilities, including the PiC facilities; (ii) Acadia’s ability to add beds, expand services, enhance marketing programs and improve efficiencies at its facilities; (iii) potential reductions in payments received by Acadia from the government and third-party payors; (iv) the occurrence of patient incidents, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock and result in incremental regulatory burdens and governmental investigations; (v) the risk that Acadia may not generate sufficient cash from operations to service its debt and meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements; and (vi) potential operating difficulties, client preferences, changes in competition and general economic or industry conditions that may prevent Acadia from realizing the expected benefits of its business strategy.

Footnotes

We have included certain financial measures in this press release, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations, which are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. We define EBITDA as net income adjusted for loss (income) from discontinued operations, net interest expense, income tax provision and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for equity-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment costs, gain on foreign currency derivatives and transaction-related expenses.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations are supplemental measures of our performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations are not measures of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as measures of our liquidity. Our measurements of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We have included information concerning EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations in this press release because we believe that such information is used by certain investors as measures of a company’s historical performance. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers of equity securities, many of which present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations when reporting their results. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

(a) Represents the equity-based compensation expense of Acadia.

(b) Represents debt extinguishment costs related to the repayment of $52.5 million of the Company’s 12.875% Senior Notes due 2018 on March 12, 2013, including a prepayment premium of $6.8 million and the write-off of $2.6 million of deferred financing costs.

(c) Represents the change in fair value of foreign currency derivatives purchased by Acadia related to its acquisition of Partnerships in Care on July 1, 2014.

(d) Represents transaction-related expenses incurred by Acadia related to acquisitions.

(e) Represents the income tax provision adjusted to reflect the tax effect of the adjustments to income from continuing operations based on tax rates of 28.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 33.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
