Acadia Healthcare Reports Second Quarter Adjusted EPS Increase of 23.1% to $0.32 on 20.5% Growth in Revenue

Same Facility Revenue Increases 11.5%

Affirms 2014 Adjusted Earnings Guidance in Range of $1.44 to $1.46 per Diluted Share

FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 29, 2014--Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014. For the quarter, revenue was $213.8 million, up 20.5% from $177.5 million for the second quarter of 2013. Income from continuing operations was $22.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014 compared with $12.3 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted income from continuing operations rose 26.8% to $16.6 million for the second quarter of 2014 from $13.1 million for the second quarter of 2013, while adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share increased 23.1% to $0.32 from $0.26. The adjusted results exclude a gain on foreign currency derivatives of $13.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 related to Acadia’s recent acquisition of Partnerships in Care (PiC), as well as transaction-related expenses of $3.0 million and $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively. A reconciliation of all GAAP and non-GAAP financial results in this release is on pages 8 and 9.

Revenue for the first six months of 2014 grew 22.6% to $415.2 million from $338.7 million for the comparable period in 2013. Income from continuing operations was $35.5 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the first half of 2014 compared with $16.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the first half of 2013. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $30.6 million for the first six months of 2014, up 29.3% from $23.7 million for the first six months of 2013, while adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share increased 27.7% to $0.60 from $0.47. The adjusted results exclude a gain on foreign currency derivatives of $13.7 million for the first six months of 2014, debt extinguishment costs of $9.4 million for the first six months of 2013 and transaction-related expenses of $4.6 million and $2.8 million for the first half of 2014 and 2013, respectively.

“We are pleased to report a continuation of strong operating and financial results for Acadia’s second quarter,” said Joey Jacobs, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Acadia. “Among the quarter’s highlights, we produced growth in revenue and adjusted income from continuing operations in excess of 20%, increased our margins and achieved a double-digit increase in same facility revenue. During the quarter, we also announced the acquisition of U.K.-based PiC, the country’s second-largest independent behavioral healthcare provider, which we completed on July 1, 2014. PiC adds 23 inpatient psychiatric facilities with over 1,200 licensed beds to Acadia’s operations and, for 2013, produced revenue of approximately $285 million and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $75 million. In addition to being substantially accretive to our operations, we expect this transaction to position us well in the U.K.’s independent behavioral health market, with meaningful opportunities for organic growth and further acquisitions.


“Acadia’s revenue growth for the second quarter was primarily due to the addition of approximately 675 licensed beds in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, with 259 added through acquisitions and 416 beds added to existing facilities and two de novo facilities. Our 11.5% growth in same facility revenue reflected the positive impact of the beds added to existing facilities, as well as our continuous efforts to generate additional revenues in each facility. These beds helped produce an increase in patient days of 10.6%. Our second quarter revenue per patient day rose 0.8%.

“The strong operating leverage created by double-digit same facility revenue growth, combined with increased operating efficiencies, produced a 150 basis point increase in our same facility EBITDA margin to 26.3%. The Company’s adjusted consolidated EBITDA increased 20.5% to $44.7 million for the second quarter of 2014.

“Acadia continues to evaluate potential acquisitions and develop new beds in existing facilities. We are well positioned to finance these growth strategies, with availability under our revolving credit facility of approximately $175 million subsequent to the completion of the PiC acquisition and with substantial net cash flows from continuing operations, which totaled approximately $22 million for the second quarter. Including the impact of the PiC transaction, our ratio of total net debt to trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA is approximately 4.2, compared with 4.2 at the end of the first quarter of 2014.”

Acadia today affirmed its guidance for 2014 adjusted earnings per diluted share in a range of $1.44 to $1.46, which was recently revised from the previous range of $1.26 to $1.29 to account for the accretive impact of the PiC transaction on the second half of 2014. The Company’s guidance does not include the impact of any future acquisitions or transaction-related expenses.

Acadia will hold a conference call to discuss its second quarter financial results at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday, July 30, 2014. 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 August 12, 2014.

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.
