Acadia Healthcare Reports Fourth Quarter 2020 Results

Company Provides Full Year and First Quarter 2021 Guidance

Expects to Complete Debt Refinancing in March 2021

FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 25, 2021--Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.

On January 19, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of Acadia’s business operations in the United Kingdom, operating under the name of The Priory Group, to Waterland Private Equity. The U.K. business and its results have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods in this release. Supplemental information for discontinued operations has been included on pages 11 and 12.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Results

The Company reported revenue from continuing operations of $541.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $501.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Net loss attributable to Acadia stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $783.7 million, or $8.78 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $11.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2019. The results for the fourth quarter of 2020 include a loss from discontinued operations of $828.7 million, net of income taxes, primarily related to the loss on sale of the U.K. business of $867.3 million.

Including discontinued operations, combined revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $843.3 million and combined adjusted EBITDA was $207.5 million. Adjusted income attributable to Acadia stockholders per diluted share was $1.13 for the fourth quarter of 2020, which includes discontinued operations. Adjustments to income include transaction-related expenses, debt extinguishment costs, loss on impairment, loss on sale and the income tax effect of adjustments to income. Financial results for continuing operations combined with discontinued operations are presented, along with a reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial results in this press release, beginning on page 9.

Results for the fourth quarter of 2020 include other income of $32.8 million related to the Provider Relief Fund (“PRF”) established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The Company’s recognition of this income was based on revised guidance in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 enacted in December 2020. The Company’s lost revenues and additional expenses incurred in the year ended December 31, 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic exceeded the grant income recognized in 2020.


For the fourth quarter, Acadia’s U.S. same facility revenue increased 7.6% compared with the fourth quarter of 2019, including a 3.6% increase in patient days and a 3.8% increase in revenue per patient day.

Debbie Osteen, Chief Executive Officer of Acadia Healthcare Company, remarked, “We are very pleased with our financial and operating results for the fourth quarter of 2020, capping off an extraordinary and challenging year for Acadia. As the global COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect communities across the nation, we are mindful of our critical role as a leading provider of behavioral healthcare services. The ongoing uncertainties and economic and societal concerns have resulted in continued strong demand for our services, especially for those already struggling with behavioral health and addiction issues. As always, our primary mission is to support our patients and the communities that we serve, and we commend Acadia’s employees and clinicians for their dedication and heroic efforts to provide the highest quality care in a safe and accessible manner, especially during these challenging times. We are fortunate to have an experienced team across our operations and a proven operating model that supports our ability to execute our strategy in a dynamic environment.

“At the end of 2020, we reached an agreement to sell our U.K. operations to Waterland Private Equity, which closed in January. This transaction is a significant milestone for Acadia, and we believe the sale will maximize long-term value for our stockholders. We are excited about the opportunities in the U.S. to extend our market reach and enhance our service offerings. Our U.S. operations showed very favorable results with improvement across all key metrics for the fourth quarter of 2020, driven by solid volumes and strong cost management.

“During the fourth quarter of 2020, we added 34 beds to our existing U.S. operations, and, for the full year, we added 240 beds to existing facilities and 220 beds through the opening of two joint venture facilities, as well as the opening of six comprehensive treatment centers (“CTC”) in the U.S. In December, we opened Ascension St. Thomas Behavioral Health Hospital, a new 76-bed facility, through our joint venture with Ascension St. Thomas in Nashville, Tennessee. Also, in December, we announced a joint venture partnership with Henry Ford Health System for a 192-bed inpatient facility, which will serve the Detroit metro area when it opens in late 2022. We continue to execute on part of our strategy by partnering with health systems and hospitals across the country.

Debt Refinancing, Cash and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $378.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, which excludes cash held by the U.K. operations. The Company voluntarily paid down $105 million of Term Loan B facility under its amended and restated credit agreement in January 2021 prior to completion of the U.K transaction. From the sale of the U.K. operations, the Company received $1,525 million of gross proceeds before deducting the settlement of foreign currency hedging liabilities of $85 million, cash retained by the buyer of approximately $75 million and transaction costs of $16 million. The Company initially used the sale proceeds of approximately $1,425 million (or $1,350 million, net of cash retained by the buyer) to repay all of its outstanding Term Loan A facility of $312 million and Term Loan B of $768 million and added $345 million of cash to the balance sheet.

On January 29, 2021, the Company sent conditional notices of full redemption for $650 million of 5.265% Senior Notes due 2023 and $390 million of 6.500% Senior Notes due 2024 to the holders of such notes. The redemption of this $1,040 million of additional debt, along with breakage costs of $6 million and estimated transaction costs of $9 million, is expected to be completed in early March and to be funded with cash from the balance sheet of $430 million and proceeds from a new senior secured credit facility of $625 million. The Company expects to enter a new term loan and revolver as part of a five-year senior secured credit facility.


Upon completion of these transactions, Acadia’s debt structure is expected to include $1,025 million of a new term loan and revolving credit facility, $450 million of 5.500% Senior Notes due 2028, and $475 million of 5.000% Senior Notes due 2029, and the Company’s net leverage ratio is expected to be below 3.0x.

“As intended, we used the proceeds from the U.K. transaction to pay down our outstanding debt,” added Osteen. “We are pleased to refinance our other outstanding debt and improve our leverage profile. In addition, we continue to realize the cost savings from the steps we have taken in 2019 and 2020 related to our expense and cash management strategies. As a result, Acadia’s balance sheet is very strong with ample liquidity and capital to invest in and grow our business.”

Financial Guidance

Acadia today established financial guidance for 2021, as follows:

  • Revenue in a range of $2.23 billion to $2.28 billion;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $490 million to $520 million;
  • Adjusted earnings per diluted share in a range of $2.20 to $2.45;
  • Interest expense of approximately $80 to $85 million of which $11 million of annualized interest expense is expected to be eliminated after the first quarter;
  • A tax rate of approximately 26.5%;
  • Depreciation and amortization expense in a range of $105 million to $110 million;
  • Stock compensation expense of approximately $28 million;
  • Operating cash flows in a range of $250 million to $285 million, which includes repayment in 2021 of $53 million of the $84 million of total Medicare Accelerated and Advanced Payment Program and employer payroll tax deferrals from the CARES Act; and
  • Total capital expenditures in a range of $285 million to $325 million, including approximately $45 million for maintenance capital expenditures.

Acadia also established financial guidance for the first quarter of 2021, as follows:

  • Revenue in a range of $540 million to $550 million;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $110 million to $115 million; and
  • Adjusted earnings per diluted share in a range of $0.40 to $0.45.

The Company’s guidance does not include discontinued operations or the impact of any future acquisitions, divestitures or transaction-related expenses.

Looking Ahead

Osteen added, “Looking ahead to 2021, we expect to add approximately 300 beds to existing facilities and 170 beds through the opening of one wholly owned facility and one joint venture facility. Additionally, due to the strong demand for treatment of patients with opioid use disorder, we expect to open 11 CTCs in 2021. Our strategic investments and strong pipeline of bed expansions, de novo facilities and joint ventures will provide additional growth opportunities for Acadia to reach more patients in new and existing markets.

“With our singular strategic focus on our U.S. operations and a strong financial position to support our growth initiatives, Acadia is well-positioned to meet the expected demand for mental health and addiction treatment. Across our operations, we will strive to deliver the highest quality of patient care, extend our market reach, and advance our market leadership as a behavioral healthcare facilities operator.”

Acadia will hold a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter financial results at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, February 26, 2021. A live webcast of the conference call will be available at www.acadiahealthcare.com in the “Investors” section of the website. The webcast of the conference call will be available through March 12, 2021.

Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains forward-looking statements. Generally, words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “continue,” and “believe” or the negative of or other variation on these and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this press release. We do not undertake to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. 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) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including, without limitation, disruption to the U.S. economy and financial markets; reduced admissions and patient volumes; increased costs relating to labor, supply chain and other expenditures; and difficulty in collecting patient accounts receivable due to increases in the unemployment rate and the number of underinsured and uninsured patients; (ii) the risk that Acadia does not complete its debt refinancing transactions on terms and conditions acceptable to Acadia; (iii) potential difficulties in successfully integrating the operations of acquired facilities or realizing the expected benefits and synergies of our acquisitions, joint ventures and de novo transactions; (iv) Acadia’s ability to add beds, expand services, enhance marketing programs and improve efficiencies at its facilities; (v) potential reductions in payments received by Acadia from government and third-party payors; (vi) the occurrence of patient incidents, governmental investigations, litigation and adverse regulatory actions, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock and result in substantial payments and incremental regulatory burdens; (vii) 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 (viii) potential operating difficulties, labor costs, client preferences, changes in competition and general economic or industry conditions that may prevent Acadia from realizing the expected benefits of its business strategies. These factors and others are more fully described in Acadia’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

We define Continuing Operations Adjusted income before income taxes as net (loss) income adjusted for net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, loss (income) from discontinued operations, net of taxes, transaction-related expenses, debt extinguishment costs, loss on impairment and provision for income taxes.
 
We define Discontinued Operations EBITDA as loss (income) from discontinued operations, net of taxes, provision for income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein 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”). The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein 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 these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We have included information concerning the non-GAAP financial measures 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 similar non-GAAP financial measures when reporting their results. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures 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 transaction-related expenses incurred by Acadia primarily related to termination, restructuring, strategic review, management transition and other similar costs.
 
(c) Represents debt extinguishment costs recorded in connection with the redemption of the 6.125% Senior Notes and 5.125% Senior Notes in June 2020, issuance of the 5.000% Senior Notes in October 2020 and the Fourth Repricing Facilities Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility in November 2020.
 
(d) Represents non-cash long-lived asset impairment charges related to certain facility closures.
 
(e) Represents the income tax effect of adjustments to income based on tax rates of 13.7% and 18.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 15.3% and 17.2% for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
 
(f) For the three months ended December 31, 2019, approximately 0.3 million of the outstanding restricted stock and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock option awards have been included in the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding-diluted. These shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the condensed consolidated statement of operations because the net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2019 causes such securities to be anti-dilutive.
 
(g) Represents the loss on sale, including a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $356.2 million, recorded in connection with the U.K. sale.
