Our first quarter 2016 results demonstrate ARA’s continued growth and commitment to high quality patient care. Our differentiated physician partnership model is gaining momentum in the nephrology community, as evidenced by our industry-leading non-acquired growth rate. Our organization continues to build scale in a disciplined manner so that we can maintain a responsible pace of expansion.

“Additionally, we are gratified to have completed our initial public offering subsequent to the first quarter of 2016,” continued Carlucci. “We founded ARA 16 years ago with the belief that the physician partnership model and our operating philosophy – centered on our Core Values – would differentiate ARA from the rest of the industry.

We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI to track our performance. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income before income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for stock-based compensation, loss on early extinguishment of debt, transaction-related costs, income tax receivable agreement income and expense, and management fees. “Adjusted EBITDA-NCI” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI provide information useful for evaluating our business and understanding our operating performance in a manner similar to management. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because Adjusted EBITDA excludes the results of decisions that are outside the operational control of management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We believe Adjusted EBITDA-NCI is helpful in highlighting the amount of Adjusted EBITDA that is available to us after reflecting the interests of our joint venture partners. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI are not measures of operating performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operations, or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be indicative of historical operating results, and we do not mean for it to be predictive of future results of operations or cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these items in isolation, or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI

 

·

do not include stock-based compensation expense;

·

do not include transaction-related costs;

·

do not include depreciation and amortization—because construction and operation of our dialysis clinics requires significant capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization are a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits;

·

do not include interest expense—as we have borrowed money for general corporate purposes, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits and cash flows;

·

do not include income tax receivable agreement income and expense;

·

do not include certain income tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; and

·

do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs.

 

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not adjusted for the portion of earnings that we distribute to our joint venture partners.

 

You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI as alternatives to income from operations or net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of our operating performance, or as alternatives to cash provided by operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. This presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, since not all companies use identical calculations.

 

We use Adjusted cash provided by operating activities less distributions to NCI because it is a useful measure to evaluate the cash flow that is available to the Company for investment in property, plant and equipment, debt service, growth and other general corporate purposes. “Adjusted cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests” is defined as cash provided by operating activities plus transaction-related expenses less distributions to noncontrolling interests.

 

We use Adjusted owned net debt because it is a useful metric to evaluate the Company’s pro rata share of our interests in the cash on our balance sheet and the pro rata share of the debt guaranteed by the Company. “Adjusted owned net debt” is defined as Debt (other than clinic-level debt) plus Clinic-level debt guaranteed by American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. less Cash (other than clinic-level cash) less the Company’s pro rata interest in Clinic-level cash.  “Owned Net Leverage” is defined as the ratio of Owned Net Debt to our trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA less NCI.
