Acadia Healthcare Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results

Company Provides Fourth Quarter 2020 Guidance

FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 29, 2020--Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and provided guidance for the fourth quarter of 2020.

The Company reported revenue of $833.3 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared with $777.3 million for the third quarter of 2019. Net income attributable to Acadia stockholders for the third quarter of 2020 was $37.0 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to net income of $42.6 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the same period in 2019.

Results for the third quarter of 2020 include a reversal of $18.1 million in other income recorded in the second quarter of 2020 related to the Provider Relief Fund (“PRF”) established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The Company’s decision to reverse this income was based on additional guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”). The Company received $12.8 million of additional general distributions from the PRF in the third quarter of 2020 and has received cumulative total distributions of approximately $32.5 million, which are recorded in other accrued liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2020, pending the Company’s final review of HHS guidance.

Debbie Osteen, Chief Executive Officer of Acadia, remarked, “We are pleased with our financial and operating performance for the third quarter, reflecting strong demand for our behavioral health services. The ongoing challenges and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 global pandemic have had a profound impact on everyone’s lives, especially for the more vulnerable populations served by Acadia. We commend the work of our dedicated employees across our operations, who have worked hard to meet this demand and provide quality care in a safe environment. Acadia is well positioned to address the needs of those seeking treatment for mental health and substance use issues. We expect demand for our services will continue to increase as the mental and emotional toll caused by economic and societal concerns persists and more individuals across our markets look to Acadia for the highest quality of patient care.”

Acadia’s consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2020 was $159.4 million, compared to $146.6 million for the third quarter of 2019. Excluding the reversal of the CARES Act income, consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $177.5 million. Adjusted income attributable to Acadia stockholders per diluted share was $0.68 for the third quarter of 2020.

Adjusted results for the third quarter of 2020 exclude loss on impairment of $20.2 million, transaction-related expenses of $8.5 million and the income tax effect of adjustments to income of $(5.4) million. Adjusted results for the third quarter of 2019 exclude transaction-related expenses of $5.8 million and the income tax effect of adjustments to income of $(2.4) million. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial results in this press release appears beginning on page 8.


U.S. same facility revenue increased 7.5% with a 4.2% increase in patient days and a 3.1% increase in revenue per patient day, compared to the third quarter last year. U.S. same facility EBITDA margin increased 50 basis points to 25.7%.

For the U.K. operations, same facility revenue increased 2.7% from the third quarter last year, reflecting a 2.8% increase in revenue per patient day, offset by a 0.1% decrease in patient days. Same facility patient days recovered to pre-COVID levels in the beginning of the third quarter and continued to increase throughout the quarter. U.K. same facility EBITDA margin increased 50 basis points to 17.2%.

Osteen continued, “During the third quarter, we continued to make meaningful improvement in almost every facet of our business. Our financial results for the third quarter reflect the cost management initiatives we have implemented in 2019 and 2020. We remain focused on managing our operations efficiently, while following strict protocol measures to ensure a safe environment for our employees, patients and their families. At the same time, we have continued to make the necessary investments in our facilities to support further growth opportunities through additional service offerings and bed expansions. During the quarter, we added 100 beds to our U.S. operations, bringing our total to 206 new bed additions in 2020. We announced the opening of our new 144-bed behavioral health facility, Tower Behavioral Health, in Pennsylvania with our joint venture partner, Tower Health. In the U.K., we continued to drive operational improvements and make investments in the retooling of beds.

“As previously announced, we recently relaunched the formal process regarding the potential sale of our U.K. business. Our objective continues to be maximizing value for our stockholders. As we continue to work with our financial and legal advisors, we will update the market on the sales process when and as we determine it is appropriate,” added Osteen.

Cash and Liquidity

Acadia’s balance sheet remains strong with ample liquidity and capital to invest in and grow its business. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $339 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company also has full availability under its $500 million revolving credit facility.

Financial Guidance

Acadia today established its financial guidance for the fourth quarter of 2020, as follows:

  • Revenue in a range of $810 million to $835 million;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $160 million to $165 million; and
  • Adjusted earnings per diluted share in a range of $0.68 to $0.72.

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

“We are optimistic about the opportunities ahead for Acadia, as we focus on our primary objective to support our patients with safe and quality care. Our performance reflects solid execution of our growth strategy amidst a challenging environment. We will continue to pursue our strategy to further enhance our position as a leading provider of behavioral healthcare services,” concluded Osteen.


Acadia will hold a conference call to discuss its third quarter financial results at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, October 30, 2020. 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 November 13, 2020.

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. and U.K. economies 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) potential difficulties operating our business in light of political and economic instability in the U.K. and globally relating to the U.K.’s departure from the European Union; (iii) the impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, including the devaluation of the British Pound Sterling (GBP) relative to the U.S. Dollar (USD); (iv) Acadia’s efforts to sell its U.K. operations may not result in any definitive transaction or enhance stockholder value; (v) 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; (vi) Acadia’s ability to add beds, expand services, enhance marketing programs and improve efficiencies at its facilities; (vii) potential reductions in payments received by Acadia from government and third-party payors; (viii) the occurrence of patient incidents, governmental investigations and adverse regulatory actions, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock and result in substantial payments and incremental regulatory burdens; (ix) 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 (x) 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and subsequent periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

Footnotes
We have included certain financial measures in this press release, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted income, which are<br> “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. We define EBITDA as net income adjusted for net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, provision for income taxes, net interest<br> expense and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for equity-based compensation expense, transaction-related expenses, debt extinguishment costs and loss on impairment. We define Adjusted EBITDA<br> margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We define Adjusted income as net income adjusted for transaction-related expenses, debt extinguishment costs, loss on impairment and income tax effect of adjustments to income.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted income are supplemental measures of our performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance<br> with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted income are not measures of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as<br> 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, Adjusted<br> EBITDA margin and Adjusted income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We have included information concerning EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted income in this press release<br> 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<br> evaluation of issuers of equity securities, many of which present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted income when reporting their results. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and<br> Adjusted income should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
