Acadia Healthcare Reports Fourth Quarter Adjusted EPS of $0.19

Revenue Increases 52% Including 10.9% Growth in Same Facility Revenue

Reports Full-year 2012 Adjusted EPS of $0.66

Establishes Earnings Guidance for 2013 in Range of $0.96 to $1.00

FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 20, 2013--Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2012. Revenue increased 51.6% for the fourth quarter of 2012 to $114.3 million from $75.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. Income from continuing operations was $4.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2012 compared with a loss from continuing operations of $14.8 million, or $0.67 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2011. Adjusted income from continuing operations increased 67.1% to $8.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 from $4.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. The adjusted results for the fourth quarter of 2012 exclude transaction related expenses of $6.0 million and for the fourth quarter of 2011 exclude transaction related expenses and sponsor management fees of $31.2 million. Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share decreased 13.6% to $0.19 for the fourth quarter of 2012 from $0.22 for the fourth quarter of 2011, which reflected a 97.5% increase in weighted average shares outstanding for the comparable quarters, primarily due to Acadia’s public equity offerings in December 2011, May 2012 and December 2012. A reconciliation of all GAAP and non-GAAP financial results in this release is on pages 8 and 9.

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $407.5 million, an 88.2% increase from $216.5 million for 2011. Income from continuing operations was $20.5 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for 2012, compared with a loss from continuing operations of $33.2 million, or $1.77 per diluted share, for 2011. Adjusted income from continuing operations for 2012 was $25.6 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, excluding transaction-related expenses totaling $8.1 million, compared with $5.0 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, excluding transaction-related expenses and sponsor management fees totaling $42.9 million, for 2011.

“Acadia produced strong growth in revenue and profit margins for the fourth quarter of 2012,” commented Joey Jacobs, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Acadia. “Our revenue growth was driven by the expansion of inpatient beds during the year through the addition of new facilities and through the addition of approximately 300 beds to existing facilities. We completed 2012 with 42 facilities and over 3,100 beds compared with approximately 2,000 beds in 29 facilities at the end of 2011. This growth included the acquisition of eight facilities with over 600 beds completed on December 31, 2012.


“Double-digit same facility revenue growth of 10.9% for the fourth quarter reflected the addition of beds to existing facilities and the impact of other programs we implement in each facility to generate revenue growth, which resulted in an 8.9% increase in patient days for the quarter. The growth in patient days, combined with a 1.8% rise in revenue per patient day, drove increased operating leverage for the quarter. This leverage, together with our focus on productivity and efficiency, produced a same facility EBITDA margin of 26.9% for the fourth quarter, a 690 basis point improvement over the fourth quarter of 2011. Adjusted consolidated EBITDA more than doubled for the comparable quarters to $24.3 million, or 21.3% of consolidated revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2012 from $11.4 million, or 15.1% of consolidated revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2011.

“Acadia completed 2012 well positioned to fund its growth strategies for 2013. Net cash flow from continuing operations was $10.6 million for the fourth quarter and $34.3 million for 2012, while capital expenditures for the year totaled $27.6 million. In addition, we completed 2012 with cash and cash equivalents of $49.4 million and availability under our revolving credit facility of approximately $100 million. The Company’s ratio of total debt to trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA at December 31, 2012 was 3.9.”

Acadia today established its guidance for 2013 earnings per diluted share in a range of $0.96 to $1.00 reflecting growth of 45% to 52% over 2012. In addition, Acadia’s guidance for earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2013 is $0.19 to $0.20. The Company’s guidance does not include the impact of any future acquisitions.

Acadia will hold a conference call to discuss its second quarter financial results at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, February 21, 2013. A live webcast of the conference call will be available at www.acadiahealthcare.com in the “Investors” section of the website or at www.earnings.com. The webcast of the conference call will be available through March 7, 2013.

This news 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 news 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) Acadia’s ability to complete acquisitions and successfully integrate the operations of the acquired 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 risk that Acadia may not generate sufficient cash from operations to service its debt and meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements; and (v) 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. These factors and others are more fully described in Acadia’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

Footnotes
 
We have included certain financial measures in this press release, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income (loss) 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 (loss) 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, transaction-related expenses, and sponsor management fees.
 
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income (loss) 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 (loss) 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 (loss) 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 (loss) 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 (loss) from continuing operations when reporting their results. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
