Commenting on the results, Dirk Allison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Addus continues to produce strong financial and operating results, and we were pleased with our ability to execute on our strategy in the current environment. Our overall revenue growth of 11.0% over the third quarter of the prior year reflects favorable trends in each of our operating segments. Personal care revenues, which accounted for 74.5% of overall revenue, were up 7.0% on a same-store basis. For our home health business, we achieved an 18.6% organic growth rate in new admissions and total volumes were up 15.1% on a same store basis. Total home health revenues increased 25.1% from the prior year and include the addition of the operations of Armada Home Health and Summit Home Health that were both acquired in 2021. We are excited about the growth opportunities in our home health operations as it complements our personal care services and supports our value-based care models. We also saw steady improvement in our hospice business, which accounted for 21.4% of revenues for the third quarter and included the acquired operations of JourneyCare, which were added as of February 1, 2022, and are now fully integrated. Total hospice revenues were up 31.4% over the third quarter of 2021, and our median length of stay increased from 23 days in the second quarter to 28 days in the third quarter.

“As we end the third quarter, we are proud of the excellent job our team has done to date during 2022 despite various challenges, including the impact of Omicron, which was especially acute during the first quarter, and industry-wide staffing headwinds throughout the year. While the clinical recruiting and retention dynamics remain challenging, we are seeing clinical hiring trends start to move in a positive direction. Our overall hiring and turnover trends in personal care have also continued to improve during the third quarter, and we continue to evaluate and invest in enhancing our recruiting and onboarding processes to best position Addus to meet current and expected demand for our services.

“We remain strategic in our efforts to grow our existing business organically while actively pursuing additional growth through acquisitions. On October 1, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Apple Home Healthcare, LTD (“Apple”), which serves an average daily census of approximately 450 home health patients in an 11-county area in and around Chicago, Illinois. This transaction aligns with our strategy of expanding clinical services in existing personal care markets so that we can provide all three levels of home care with geographic scale and density. Together with our recent acquisitions of Summit Home Health and JourneyCare Hospice in the greater Chicago area, we have extended our market coverage in both clinical care segments. We are excited to welcome the experienced Apple operations team and clinical staff to Addus, and we look forward to serving more patients in this important market.”

Cash and Liquidity

The Company has focused on maintaining a strong financial position in 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $105.6 million, with capacity and availability under its revolving credit facility of $375.5 million and $200.5 million, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities was $18.3 million for the third quarter of 2022.

Looking Ahead

Allison added, “We are pleased with the trends in our business and believe that we are well positioned to drive further growth. With the completion of the Apple transaction, we have added approximately $65 million in annualized revenues through acquisitions to date in 2022. Our experienced and capable development team has assembled a robust pipeline of acquisition opportunities, and we have the capital structure and liquidity to support our growth strategy and further strengthen our competitive market position.

“We remain especially proud of our team’s dedicated work, particularly our frontline caregivers, who provide outstanding care and support for our patients and their families. They continue to respond to the growing demand for our services, delivered in the safest and most cost-effective setting. We have a proven operating model across the care continuum that supports favorable outcomes and patient satisfaction. We believe we are well positioned to build on this model, and we look forward to the opportunities ahead for Addus,” said Allison.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The information provided in this release includes adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per diluted share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income before acquisition and de novo expenses, stock-based compensation expenses, restructure and other non-recurring costs, gain or loss on the sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, other non-operating income, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition and de novo expense, stock-based compensation expense, restructure and other non-recurring costs, gain or loss on the sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as earnings per share, adjusted for acquisition and de novo expenses, stock-based compensation expense, restructure and other non-recurring costs, gain or loss on the sale of assets, and retroactive rate increases from Illinois. The Company defined adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share to exclude net COVID expenses arising from the pandemic from the second quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021. The Company defines adjusted net service revenues as revenue adjusted for the closure of certain sites. The Company has provided, in the financial statement tables included in this press release, a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income, a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to earnings per share, and a reconciliation of adjusted net service revenues to net service revenues, in each case, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted net service revenues are useful to investors, management and others in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, to provide investors with insight and consistency in the Company’s financial reporting and to present a basis for comparison of the Company’s business operations among periods, and to facilitate comparison with the results of the Company’s peers.
