Envision Healthcare Reports 2017 Second Quarter Financial Results

Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations of $0.42, or Adjusted EPS of $0.85

Updates 2017 Financial Outlook to Reflect Recent Healthcare Trends

NASHVILLE, Tenn. & GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo.--()--Envision Healthcare Corporation (“Envision”) (NYSE: EVHC) today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, which were consistent with the financial outlook previously provided by Envision. Second quarter results include strong cash flow from operations.

Highlights for the second quarter of 2017 include:

  • Net revenue from continuing operations of $1.95 billion;
  • Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders of $50.2 million or $0.42 per diluted share;
  • Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations of $103.7 million or $0.85 per diluted share;
  • Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $253.8 million; and
  • Net cash flow from operations, less distributions to non-controlling interests and excluding transaction costs, of $236.6 million.

A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial results to the comparable GAAP measure is provided on page 6 of this press release.

“Envision produced solid financial results from continuing operations for the second quarter that were in line with expectations,” said Christopher A. Holden, President and Chief Executive Officer of Envision. “Our operating and financial performance confirms our strategic rationale for the transformational merger that we completed eight months ago. We are on track to capture the expected financial synergies, continue to generate interest among health systems for our solutions, and have expanded our platform with the acquisition of nine physician group practices and four ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) during the first half of 2017. At the same time, we are successfully streamlining our operations and focusing on our core physician-centric activities.”

Envision reports two operating segments as continuing operations: Physician Services, which includes facility-based and post-acute services; and Ambulatory Services. This follows the decision earlier this year to market and divest American Medical Response, Envision’s Medical Transportation business. As a result of the movement of this business to discontinued operations, and as required by accounting guidelines, Envision re-allocated certain corporate expenses associated with its shared services model to continuing operations. This re-allocation impacts segment Adjusted EBITDA by $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The re-allocation results in a reduction of Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of $6.5 million for Physician Services and $2.0 million for Ambulatory Services, with a corresponding Adjusted EBITDA increase of $8.5 million for discontinued operations. Upon the planned divestiture of the Medical Transportation business, a portion of these shared services are likely to remain with that business.

Physician Services

In order to enhance the comparability of results following the merger of AMSURG Corp. (“AMSURG”) and Envision Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (“EHH”), which was completed on December 1, 2016, the following discussion presents Envision Physician Services’ results for the prior-year period as if the two separate Physician Services’ segments of AMSURG and EHH, based on historically reported results, had been combined effective January 1, 2016.

Net revenues for Physician Services were $1.63 billion for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 9.3% from $1.49 billion during the prior-year period. Revenue growth was driven by contributions from acquisitions of 10.6% and 2.5% from same contracts. New contracts contributed revenue growth of 5.6%, offset by terminations of 7.1%, resulting in a net decline of 1.5% from new contracts, an anticipated improvement from the first quarter of 2017. New contracts were also impacted by a 2.3% decline due to the previously announced population health contract termination.

Same-contract revenue growth was 3.2% in the second quarter of 2017 when compared to the prior-year period. Same-contract patient care volume grew by 1.1% and same-contract net revenue related to revenue per patient encounter grew by 2.1%, compared to the prior-year period.

Same-contract patient volume was driven by strong growth in anesthesia and hospitalist medicine, offset by volume declines in emergency medicine. Same-contract rate improved in emergency medicine and declined in anesthesia.

For the second quarter of 2017, Adjusted EBITDA was $193.3 million, or $199.8 million when excluding the corporate expense re-allocation of $6.5 million. This compares with $190.5 million for the prior-year period.

Ambulatory Services

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were $318.5 million, which compares to $319.8 million for the prior-year period. Same-center revenue increased by 0.6% for the second quarter of 2017, which was comprised of a 0.5% increase in net revenue per procedure and an increase of 0.1% in procedure volume. Deconsolidated centers contributed incremental revenues of $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2016.

For the second quarter of 2017, Adjusted EBITDA was $60.5 million, or $62.5 million when excluding the corporate expense re-allocation of $2.0 million. This compares with $61.7 million for the prior-year period.

Ambulatory Services operated 263 ASCs and one surgical hospital at June 30, 2017. Ambulatory Services acquired two centers and disposed of three centers during the quarter.

Liquidity

Envision had cash and cash equivalents of $464.6 million at June 30, 2017, which includes $23.3 million of cash attributable to its Medical Transportation business. Availability under its asset-based lending facility was $619.7 million as of June 30, 2017. During 2017 through today, Envision has invested more than $600 million in acquisitions.

Net cash flows from operations, less distributions to noncontrolling interests and excluding transaction costs, were $236.6 million for the second quarter of 2017. The Company’s ratio of total net debt at June 30, 2017, to trailing 12 months EBITDA as calculated under the Company’s credit agreement was 4.5 times. Interest expense reflects a re-allocation of $21.8 million to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Discontinued Operations

Envision’s Medical Transportation business is reported as a component of discontinued operations following a decision made earlier this year to market and divest American Medical Response.

Net revenues from discontinued operations were $588.8 million for the second quarter of 2017, and declined by 0.3% compared to the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $68.2 million, or $59.7 million when excluding the favorable impact of $8.5 million from the re-allocation of corporate expenses.

Guidance

Envision is revising its 2017 guidance to reflect lower emergency medicine volumes and their impact on Envision’s financial performance. Envision now anticipates that it will generate net revenues of $7.75 billion to $8.00 billion for 2017. Guidance is unchanged for same-contract revenue growth of 3% to 4% for Physician Services, and same-center revenue growth of 0% to 1% for ASCs.

Envision expects Adjusted EBITDA of $1.02 billion to $1.04 billion. The top end of Envision’s most recent Adjusted EBITDA guidance is being reduced by $26 million, or approximately 2%, principally due to lower anticipated emergency medicine volumes than had been previously forecast. Adjusted EPS for the year is expected to be $3.35 to $3.45.

For the third quarter of 2017, Envision expects to generate Adjusted EBITDA of $266 million to $278 million, and Adjusted EPS of $0.87 to $0.93.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year and third quarter of 2017 excludes interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation, impairment charges, debt extinguishment costs, transaction and integration costs, changes in contingent purchase price consideration, gain or loss on deconsolidations and discontinued operations, net of non-controlling interests. Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS guidance for the full year and third quarter of 2017 excludes acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, acquisition-related amortization expense, gains and losses on future deconsolidation transactions, share-based compensation, impairment charges and debt extinguishment costs, net of tax impact. Envision is not providing a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS guidance because the exact amount of individual adjustments for these items are not currently determinable, including variability and timing associated with acquisitions, disposals, deconsolidations and impairment charges. These amounts may be significant and may vary significantly from period to period (see page 6 for a reconciliation of all historical GAAP and non-GAAP financial results).

Conference Call Information

Envision will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time Tuesday, August 8, 2017, to discuss its financial results. The live broadcast of Envision’s quarterly conference call will be available on-line by going to www.evhc.net and clicking on the link to Investors. The on-line replay will follow shortly after the call and continue for 30 days.

Footnotes to Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP Measures

 
(1) We believe the calculation of adjusted net earnings from continuing operations per diluted share attributable to Envision Healthcare Corporation common shareholders provides a better measure of our ongoing performance and provides better comparability to prior periods because it excludes discontinued operations, the gains or loss from deconsolidations, net of noncontrolling interests, which are non-cash in nature, impairment charges, transaction and integration costs, including associated debt extinguishment costs and deferred financing write-off, and acquisition-related amortization expense, changes in contingent purchase price consideration, purchase accounting adjustments related to mergers and acquisitions and share-based compensation expense. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations per diluted share attributable to Envision Healthcare Corporation common shareholders should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and the items excluded from it is a significant component in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted net earnings from continuing operations per diluted share attributable to Envision Healthcare Corporation common shareholders is not a measurement determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable as presented to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For purposes of calculating adjusted earnings per share, we utilize the if-converted method to determine the number of diluted shares outstanding. In periods where utilizing the if-converted method is anti-dilutive, the mandatory convertible preferred stock will not be included in the calculation of diluted shares outstanding.
 
(2) We define Adjusted EBITDA of Envision Healthcare Corporation as earnings before interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, transaction and integration costs, share-based compensation, impairment charges, debt extinguishment costs, gain or loss on deconsolidations, net of noncontrolling interests, changes in contingent purchase price consideration, purchase accounting adjustments related to mergers and acquisitions and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is an analytical indicator used by management and the health care industry to evaluate company performance, allocate resources and measure leverage and debt service capacity. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance or liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Envision Healthcare Corporation common shareholders is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that is most comparable to Adjusted EBITDA as defined.
