SELECT MEDICAL HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SELECT MEDICAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.Basis of Presentation

1.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, Select Medical Corporation (“Select”). Holdings conducts substantially all of its business through Select and its subsidiaries. Holdings and Select and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016March 31, 2019 and 2017,2020, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by GAAP, which are normally included in the notes to consolidated financial statements, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for such periods. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 20162019, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 23, 2017.

2.Accounting Policies

20, 2020.

2.Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including disclosure of contingencies, at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In

Financial Instruments
On January 2017,1, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issuedCompany adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, Business Combinations2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business326), which clarifiesreplaced the definitionincurred loss approach for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments with an expected loss approach. The expected loss approach is subject to management judgments using assessments of a business with the objectiveincurred credit losses, assessments of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 states that if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the transaction should be accounted for as an asset acquisition. In addition, the ASU clarifies the requirements for a set of activitiescurrent conditions, and forecasts using reasonable and supportable assumptions. The standard was required to be considered a business and narrowsapplied using the definition of an output. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. ASU 2017-01 will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The ASU requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company plans to adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2018. Adoption of the guidance will be applied on a modified retrospective approach throughwith a cumulative effectcumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, asif any, upon adoption.

The Company’s primary financial instrument subject to the standard is its accounts receivable derived from contracts with patients. Historically, the Company has experienced infrequent, immaterial credit losses related to its accounts receivable and, based on its experience, believes the risk of the effective date.material defaults is low. The Company is currently evaluatingexperienced credit losses of $1.1 million for the standard to determineyear ended December 31, 2017, credit loss recoveries of $0.1 million for the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016,year ended December 31, 2018, and credit losses of $3.0 million for the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This ASU includes a lessee accounting model that recognizes two types of leases; finance and operating. This ASU requires that a lessee recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms of more than twelve months. Lessees will need to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained the dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. For short-term leases of twelve months or less, lessees are permitted to make an accounting election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. If the alternative is elected, lease expense would be recognized generally on the straight-line basis over the respective lease term.

The amendments in ASU 2016-02 will take effect for public companies for fiscal years beginning afteryear ended December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. A modified retrospective approach is required for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements.

Upon adoption, the Company will recognize significant assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as a result of the operating lease obligations of the Company. Operating lease expense will still be recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company will implement the new standard beginning January 1,31, 2019. The Company’s implementation effortshistorical credit losses have been infrequent and immaterial largely because the Company’s accounts receivable are focusedtypically paid for by highly-solvent, creditworthy payors such as Medicare, other governmental programs, and highly-regulated commercial insurers, on designing accounting processes, disclosure processes, and internal controls in order to account for its leases under the new standard.

In May 2014, March 2016, April 2016, and December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Principal versus Agent Considerations, ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, and ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (collectively “the standards”), respectively, which supersede mostbehalf of the current revenue recognition requirements.patient. The core principleCompany believes it has moderate credit risk related to defaults on self-pay amounts in accounts receivable; however, these amounts represented less than 1.0% of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. New disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers are also required. The standards require the selection of a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method.

The Company will implement the new standard beginningCompany’s accounts receivable at January 1, 2018 using2020.

In estimating the retrospective transition method.  Adoption of the new standard will result in material changes to the presentation of net operating revenues and bad debt expense in the consolidated statements of operations, but the presentation of the amount of income from operations and net income is notCompany’s expected to materially change upon adoption of the new standards. The principal change is how the new standard requires healthcare providers to estimate the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price up to an amount which is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The most common form of variable considerationcredit losses under Topic 326, the Company experiences are amountsconsiders its incurred loss experience and adjusts for services provided that are ultimately not realizable from a customer. Under the current standards, the Company’s estimate for unrealizable amounts was recorded to bad debt expense. Under the new standards, the Company’s estimate for unrealizable amounts will be recognized as a constraint to revenueknown and will be reflected as an allowance. Substantially all of the bad debt expense as of September 30, 2016expected events and September 30, 2017 will be reclassified as an allowance when the Company retrospectively applies the guidance in the standards on January 1, 2018.

The Company’s remaining implementation efforts are focused principally on refining the accounting processes, disclosure processes, and internal controls.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which changed the presentation of deferred income taxes. The standard changed the presentation of deferred income taxes through the requirement that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2017. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been retrospectively adjusted. Adoption of the new standard impacted the Company’s previously reported results as follows:

3.  Acquisitions

Physiotherapy Acquisition

On March 4, 2016, Select acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Physiotherapy Associates Holdings, Inc. (“Physiotherapy”) for $406.3 million, net of $12.3 million of cash acquired.

For the Physiotherapy acquisition, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company finalized the purchase price allocation.

The following table reconciles the allocation of the consideration given for identifiable net assets and goodwill acquired to the net cash paid for the acquired business (in thousands):

Goodwill of $343.2 million has been recognized in the business combination, representing the excess of the consideration given over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. The value of goodwill is derived from Physiotherapy’s future earnings potential and its assembled workforce. Goodwill has been assigned to the outpatient rehabilitation reporting unit and is not deductible for tax purposes. However, prior to its acquisitionother circumstances, identified using periodic assessments implemented by the Company, Physiotherapy completed certain acquisitions that resultedwhich management believes are relevant in tax deductible goodwill with an estimated valueassessing the collectability of $8.8 million, whichits accounts receivable. Because of the infrequent and insignificant nature of the Company’s historical credit losses, forecasts of expected credit losses are generally unnecessary. Expected credit losses are recognized by the Company will deduct through 2030.

Due to the integrationan allowance for credit losses and related credit loss expense.


As of Physiotherapy into our outpatient rehabilitation operations, it is not practicable to separately identify net revenue and earnings of Physiotherapy on a stand-alone basis.

The following pro forma unaudited results of operations have been prepared assuming the acquisition of Physiotherapy occurred on January 1, 2015. These results are not necessarily indicative of results of future operations nor of2020, the results that would have actually occurred had the acquisition been consummated on the aforementioned date.Company completed its expected credit loss assessment for its financial instruments subject to Topic 326. The Company’s resultsestimate of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 include Physiotherapy for the entire period. There were no pro forma adjustments during these periods; therefore, no pro forma information is presented.

3.Credit Risk Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash balances and accounts receivables. The Company’s excess cash is held with large financial institutions. The Company grants unsecured credit to its patients, most of whom reside in the service area of the Company’s facilities and are insured under third-party payor agreements. The Company’s general policy is to verify insurance coverage prior to the date of admission for patients admitted to its critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals. Within the Company’s outpatient rehabilitation clinics, insurance coverage is verified prior to the patient’s visit. Within the Company’s Concentra centers, insurance coverage is verified or an authorization is received from the patient’s employer prior to the patient’s visit.
Because of the diversity in the Company’s non-governmental third-party payor base, as well as their geographic dispersion, patient accounts receivable which are due from the Medicare program represent the Company’s only significant concentration of credit risk. Approximately 15% and 18% of the Company’s accounts receivable is from Medicare at December 31, 2019, and March 31, 2020, respectively.
4.Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
The ownership interests held by outside parties in subsidiaries, limited liability companies, and limited partnerships controlled by the Company are classified as non-controlling interests. Some of the Company’s non-controlling ownership interests consist of outside parties that have certain redemption rights that, if exercised, require the Company to purchase the parties’ ownership interests. These interests are classified and reported as redeemable non-controlling interests and have been adjusted to excludetheir approximate redemption values.
On January 1, 2020, Select acquired approximately $3.2 million17.2% of Physiotherapy acquisition costs.

Other Acquisitions

the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis from Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe XII, L.P. (“WCAS”), Dignity Health Holding Corporation (“DHHC”), and certain other sellers in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $338.4 million. On February 1, 2020, Select acquired an additional 1.4% of the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis from WCAS, DHHC, and certain other sellers in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $27.8 million. These purchases were in lieu of, and are considered to be, the exercise of the first put right provided to certain equity holders under the terms of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Concentra Group Holdings Parent, dated as of February 1, 2018, as amended (the “Concentra LLC Agreement”).

Following these purchases, Select owns approximately 66.6% of the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis and approximately 68.8% of the outstanding Class A membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent.

5.Variable Interest Entities
Concentra does not own many of its medical practices, as certain states prohibit the “corporate practice of medicine,” which restricts business corporations from practicing medicine through the direct employment of physicians or from exercising control over medical decisions by physicians. In these states, Concentra typically enters into long-term management agreements with professional corporations or associations that are owned by licensed physicians, which, in turn, employ or contract with physicians who provide professional medical services in Concentra’s occupational health centers.
The management agreements have terms that provide for Concentra to conduct, supervise, and manage the day-to-day non-medical operations of the occupational health centers and provide all management and administrative services. Concentra segments duringreceives a management fee for these services, which is based, in part, on the nine months ended September 30, 2017. performance of the professional corporation or association. Additionally, the outstanding voting equity interests of the professional corporations or associations are typically owned by licensed physicians appointed at Concentra’s discretion. Concentra has the ability to direct the transfer of ownership of the professional corporation or association to a new licensed physician at any time.
The Company provided total considerationassets of $21.7 million, consisting principally of $19.4 million of cash and the issuance of non-controlling interests. The assets received in these acquisitions consistedConcentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts receivable, property and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, and goodwill, of which $0.8 million, $1.8were $178.4 million and $14.5$173.7 million at December 31, 2019, and March 31, 2020, respectively. The total liabilities of goodwill was recognized in our specialty hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation,Concentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and Concentra reporting units,obligations payable for services received under the aforementioned management agreements, were $176.7 million and $172.1 million at December 31, 2019, and March 31, 2020, respectively.

Select Credit Facilities

On March 6, 2017, Select entered into a new senior secured credit agreement (the “Select credit agreement”) that provides for $1.6 billion in senior secured credit facilities comprising a $1.15 billion, seven-year term loan (the “Select term loan”) and a $450.0 million, five-year revolving credit facility (the “Select revolving facility” and together with the Select term loan, the “Select credit facilities”), including a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit.

Select used borrowings under the Select credit facilities to: (i) repay in full the series E tranche B term loans due June 1, 2018, the series F tranche B term loans due March 31, 2021, and the revolving facility maturing March 1, 2018 under its then existing credit facilities; and (ii) pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing, which resulted in $6.5 million of debt extinguishment losses and $13.2 million of debt modification losses during the first quarter of 2017.

Borrowings under the Select credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal to: (i) in the case of the Select term loan, Adjusted LIBO (as defined in the Select credit agreement) plus 3.50% (subject to an Adjusted LIBO floor of 1.00%), or Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Select credit agreement) plus 2.50% (subject to an Alternate Base Rate floor of 2.00%); and (ii) in the case of the Select revolving facility, Adjusted LIBO plus a percentage ranging from 3.00% to 3.25% or Alternate Base Rate plus a percentage ranging from 2.00% to 2.25%, in each case based on Select’s leverage ratio.

The Select term loan amortizes in equal quarterly installments in amounts equal to 0.25% of the aggregate original principal amount of the Select term loan commencing on June 30, 2017.  The balance of the Select term loan will be payable on March 8, 2024; however, if the Select 6.375% senior notes, which are due June 1, 2021, are outstanding on March 1, 2021, the maturity date for the Select term loan will become March 1, 2021. The Select revolving facility will be payable on March 8, 2022; however, if the Select 6.375% senior notes are outstanding on February 1, 2021, the maturity date for the Select revolving facility will become February 1, 2021.

Select will be required to prepay borrowings under the Select credit facilities with (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds received from non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions, or as a result of a casualty or condemnation, subject to reinvestment provisions and other customary carveouts and, to the extent required, the payment of certain indebtedness secured by liens having priority over the debt under the Select credit facilities or subject to a first lien intercreditor agreement, (ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds received from the issuance of debt obligations other than certain permitted debt obligations, and (iii) 50% of excess cash flow (as defined in the Select credit agreement) if Select’s leverage ratio is greater than 4.50 to 1.00 and 25% of excess cash flow if Select’s leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00 and greater than 4.00 to 1.00, in each case, reduced by the aggregate amount of term loans, revolving loans and certain other debt optionally prepaid during the applicable fiscal year.  Select will not be required to prepay borrowings with excess cash flow if Select’s leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00.

The Select revolving facility requires Select to maintain a leverage ratio (as defined in the Select credit agreement), which is tested quarterly, not to exceed 6.25 to 1.00. After March 31, 2019, the leverage ratio must not exceed 6.00 to 1.00.  Failure to comply with this covenant would result in an event of default under the Select revolving facility and, absent a waiver or an amendment from the revolving lenders, preclude Select from making further borrowings under the Select revolving facility and permit the revolving lenders to accelerate all outstanding borrowings under the Select revolving facility. The termination of the Select revolving facility commitments and the acceleration of amounts outstanding thereunder would constitute an event of default with respect to the Select term loan. As of September 30, 2017, Select’s leverage ratio was 5.82 to 1.00.

The Select credit facilities also contain a number of other affirmative and restrictive covenants, including limitations on mergers, consolidations and dissolutions; sales of assets; investments and acquisitions; indebtedness; liens; affiliate transactions; and dividends and restricted payments. The Select credit facilities contain events of default for non-payment of principal and interest when due (subject, as to interest, to a grace period), cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions and an event of default that would be triggered by a change of control.

Borrowings under the Select credit facilities are guaranteed by Holdings and substantially all of Select’s current domestic subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by substantially all of Select’s future domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of Select’s existing and future property and assets and by a pledge of Select’s capital stock, the capital stock of Select’s domestic subsidiaries and up to 65% of the capital stock of Select’s foreign subsidiaries held directly by Select or a domestic subsidiary.

(1)Prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the financial results of employee leasing services provided to non-consolidating subsidiaries were included with the Company’s reportable segments. These results are now reported as part of the Company’s other activities. Net operating revenues have been conformed to the current presentation for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

10.Earnings per Share
The Company’s capital structure includes common stock and unvested restricted stock awards. To compute earnings per share (“EPS”), the retrospective adoption of ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. Total assets as of September 30, 2016 were retrospectively conformed to reflect the adoption of the standard, resulting in a reduction to total assets of $28.1 million.

7.  Income per Common Share

HoldingsCompany applies the two-class method for calculating and presenting income perbecause the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards are participating securities which are entitled to participate equally with the Company’s common share. Thestock in undistributed earnings. Application of the Company’s two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of stock participation rights in undistributed earnings.

as follows:

(i)Net income attributable to the Company is reduced by the amount of dividends declared and by the contractual amount of dividends that must be paid for the current period for each class of stock. There were 0 dividends declared or contractual dividends paid for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020.
(ii)The remaining undistributed net income of the Company is then equally allocated to its common stock and unvested restricted stock awards, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. The total net income allocated to each security is determined by adding both distributed and undistributed net income for the period.
(iii)The net income allocated to each security is then divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period to determine the EPS for each security considered in the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the calculation ofnet income per share in Holdings’ condensed consolidated statements of operations andattributable to the differences between basic weighted averageCompany, its common shares outstanding, and dilutedits participating securities outstanding.

11.Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation

The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.

To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance subjectcoverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programs that are designed to respond to the risks of $2.0the specific joint venture. The annual aggregate limit under these programs ranges from $6.0 million per medical incident for professional liability claimsto $20.0 million. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and $2.0 million per occurrence for general liability claims.may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.

Evansville Litigation

On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff-relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital—Evansville, LLC (“SSH-Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff-relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff-relators are the former CEO and two former case managers at SSH-Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH-Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH-Evansville. The plaintiff-relators allege that SSH-Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up-coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long-term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.

In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff-relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff-relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non-retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However, the District Court ruled that the plaintiff-relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present, which the defendants have opposed. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Knoxville Litigation

On July 13, 2015, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee unsealed a qui tam Complaint in Armes v. Garman, et al, No. 3:14-cv-00172-TAV-CCS, which named as defendants Select, Select Specialty Hospital—Knoxville, Inc. (“SSH-Knoxville”), Select Specialty Hospital—North Knoxville, Inc. and ten current or former employees of these facilities. The Complaint was unsealed after the United States and the State of Tennessee notified the court on July 13, 2015 that each had decided not to intervene in the case. The Complaint is a civil action that was filed under seal on April 29, 2014 by a respiratory therapist formerly employed at SSH-Knoxville. The Complaint alleges violations of the federal False Claims Act and the Tennessee Medicaid False Claims Act based on extending patient stays to increase reimbursement and to increase average length of stay; artificially prolonging the lives of patients to increase Medicare reimbursements and decrease inspections; admitting patients who do not require medically necessary care; performing unnecessary procedures and services; and delaying performance of procedures to increase billing. The Complaint was served on some of the defendants during October 2015.

In November 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint on multiple grounds. The defendants first argued that False Claims Act’s first-to-file bar required dismissal of plaintiff-relator’s claims. Under the first-to-file bar, if a qui tam case is pending, no person may bring a related action based on the facts underlying the first action. The defendants asserted that the plaintiff-relator’s claims were based on the same underlying facts as were asserted in the Evansville litigation, discussed above. The defendants also argued that the plaintiff-relator’s claims must be dismissed under the public disclosure bar, and because the plaintiff-relator did not plead his claims with sufficient particularity.

In June 2016, the District Court granted the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and dismissed with prejudice the plaintiff-relator’s lawsuit in its entirety. The District Court ruled that the first-to-file bar precludes all but one of the plaintiff-relator’s claims, and that the remaining claim must also be dismissed because the plaintiff-relator failed to plead it with sufficient particularity. In July 2016, the plaintiff-relator filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Then, on October 11, 2016, the plaintiff-relator filed a Motion to Remand the case to the District Court for further proceedings, arguing that the September 30, 2016 decision in the Evansville litigation, discussed above, undermines the basis for the District Court’s dismissal. After the Court of Appeals denied the Motion to Remand, the plaintiff-relator then sought an indicative ruling from the District Court that it would vacate its prior dismissal ruling and allow plaintiff-relator to supplement his Complaint, which the defendants have opposed. The case has been fully briefed and argued in the Court of Appeals. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Wilmington Litigation

Litigation.On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital—Wilmington,Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH-Wilmington”SSH‑Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16-347-LPS.16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal onin May 12, 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH-WilmingtonSSH‑Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention onin January 13, 2017. The corporate defendants were served onin March 6, 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff-relatorplaintiff‑relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH-Wilmington,SSH‑Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH-Wilmington.SSH‑Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, onin May 17, 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint which is now pending, based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim.

On In March 24,2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.




In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH-Wilmington,SSH‑Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  The motion is currently pending.

In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.

The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Contract Therapy Subpoena

Subpoena. On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producinghas produced documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Northern District

12.Income Taxes
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act includes changes to certain tax law related to net operating losses and the deductibility of Alabama Investigation

interest expense and depreciation. ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. This legislation had the effect of increasing the Company’s deferred income taxes and decreasing its current income taxes payable by approximately $15.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

13.Subsequent Events
Title VIII in Division B of the CARES Act established the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund, also referred to as the Cares Act Provider Relief Fund, which set aside $100.0 billion to be administered through grants and other mechanisms to hospitals, public entities, not-for-profit entities, and Medicare- and Medicaid-enrolled suppliers and institutional providers. The purpose of these funds is to reimburse providers for lost revenue attributable to the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic, such as forgone revenues from canceled procedures, and to provide support for related healthcare expenses, such as constructing temporary structures or emergency operation centers, retrofitting facilities, purchasing medical supplies and equipment including personal protective equipment and testing supplies, and increasing workforce. Further, these relief funds ensure uninsured patients are receiving testing and treatment for COVID-19. On October 30, 2017,April 10, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services began making payments to healthcare providers from the $100.0 billion appropriation. These are payments, rather than loans, to healthcare providers, and will not need to be repaid. The Company received approximately $93.7 million of payments as part of the Cares Act Provider Relief Fund. The Company concluded that the receipt of these payments would be accounted for in periods subsequent to March 31, 2020, as the Company was contactednot able to determine eligibility for the assistance or the amounts that would be distributed until April 2020.
Additionally, the CARES Act allows for qualified healthcare providers to receive advanced payments under the existing Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments Program during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under this program, healthcare providers may receive advanced payments for future Medicare services provided. The Company applied for and received approval from CMS in April 2020 to receive advanced payments and, through April 30, 2020, the Company has received $316.1 million under this program. Because these payments are made on behalf of patients before services are provided, the Company will record these payments as a contract liability until all performance obligations have been met. These advanced payments will be recouped by CMS through future Medicare claims billed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Alabama to request cooperation in connection with an investigation that may involve Medicare billing compliance at certainCompany, beginning 121 days after receipt of the Company’s Physiotherapy outpatient rehabilitation clinics.advanced payment. After 120 days, any new Medicare claim billed by the Company will reduce the liability owed to CMS. The Company intendsis required to cooperate with this investigation.  At this time,repay any advanced payments not recouped by CMS within 210 days from the date the Company originally received the payment. Failure to repay the advanced payments when due will result in interest charges on the outstanding balance owed.

In April 2020, the Company began deferring payment on its share of payroll taxes owed, as allowed by the CARES Act through December 31, 2020. The Company is unableable to predict the timing and outcomedefer half of this matter.

9.  Subsequent Event

On October 23, 2017, Select announced that Concentra Group Holdings entered into an Equity Purchase and Contribution Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated October 22, 2017 with Concentra, Concentra Group Holdings Parent, LLC (“Group Holdings Parent”), U.S. HealthWorks, Inc. (“U.S. HealthWorks”), and Dignity Health Holdings Company (“DHHC”).  Pursuant to the termsits share of the Purchase Agreement, Concentra will acquire the issued and outstanding shares of stock of U.S. HealthWorks, an occupational medicine and urgent care service provider.

In connectionpayroll taxes owed until December 31, 2021, with the closing of the transaction, it is expected that Concentra Group Holdings will redeem certain of its outstanding equity interests from existing minority equity holders and subsequently, Concentra Group Holdings and a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Holdings Parent will merge, with Concentra Group Holdings surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Holdings Parent. As a result of the merger, the equity interests of Concentra Group Holdings outstanding after the redemption described above will be exchanged for membership interests in Group Holdings Parent.

The transaction values U.S. HealthWorks at $753.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments for working capital, cash, debt, transaction expenses and other items in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. DHHC, a subsidiary of Dignity Health, will be issued a 20% equity interest in Group Holdings Parent, which is valued at $238.0 million. The remainder of the purchase price will be paid in cash.  Select will retain a majority voting interest in Group Holdings Parent following the closing of the transaction.

Concentra expects to finance the transaction and related expenses using a proposed $555.0 million senior secured incremental term facility under its existing credit facility and a proposed $240.0 million second lien term facility, for which JP Morgan Chase, N.A. has provided Concentra with a debt commitment letter.

The transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018, is subject to a number of closing conditions, including clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

10.  Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

Select’s 6.375% senior notes are fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed, except for customary limitations,remaining half due on a senior basis by all of Select’s wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Subsidiary Guarantors are defined as subsidiaries where Select, or a subsidiary of Select, holds all of the outstanding ownership interests. Certain of Select’s subsidiaries did not guarantee the 6.375% senior notes (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries” and Concentra Group Holdings and its subsidiaries, the “Non-Guarantor Concentra”).

Select conducts a significant portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for Select, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, and Non-Guarantor Concentra at December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2017 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2017.

The equity method has been used by Select with respect to investments in subsidiaries. The equity method has been used by Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to investments in Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Separate financial statements for Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior reported amounts in order to conform to the current year guarantor structure.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read this discussion together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “target,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on those financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement our strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets, working capital needs, and sources of liquidity.

Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding our services, the expansion of our services, competitive conditions, and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

·

developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, additional measures taken by government authorities and the private sector to limit the spread of COVID-19, and further legislative and regulatory actions which impact healthcare providers, including actions that may impact the Medicare program;
changes in government reimbursement for our services due to the implementation of healthcare reform legislation, deficit reduction measures, and/or new payment policies (including, for example, the expiration of the moratorium limiting the full application of the 25 Percent Rule that would reduce our Medicare payments for those patients admitted to a long term acute care hospital from a referring hospital in excess of an applicable percentage admissions threshold) may result in a reduction in net operating revenues, an increase in costs, and a reduction in profitability;

·                  the impact of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (the “BBA of 2013”), which established payment limits for Medicare patients who do not meet specified criteria, may result in a reduction in net operating revenues and profitability of our long term acute care hospitals (“LTCHs”);

·

the failure of our specialtyMedicare-certified long term care hospitals or inpatient rehabilitation facilities to maintain their Medicare certifications may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;

·                  the failure of our facilities operated as “hospitals within hospitals” to qualify as hospitals separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;

·

the failure of our Medicare-certified long term care hospitals and inpatient rehabilitation facilitiesoperated as “hospitals within hospitals” to qualify as hospitals separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
a government investigation or assertion that we have violated applicable regulations may result in sanctions or reputational harm and increased costs;

·

acquisitions or joint ventures may prove difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources, or expose us to unforeseen liabilities;

·

our plans and expectations related to the pending acquisition of U.S. HealthWorksour acquisitions and our ability to realize anticipated synergies;

·

private third-party payors for our services may adopt payment policies that could limit our future net operating revenues and profitability;

·

the failure to maintain established relationships with the physicians in the areas we serve could reduce our net operating revenues and profitability;

·

shortages in qualified nurses, therapists, physicians, or other licensed providers, or the inability to attract or retain healthcare professionals due to the heightened risk of infection related to the COVID-19 pandemic, could increase our operating costs significantly or limit our ability to staff our facilities;

·

competition may limit our ability to grow and result in a decrease in our net operating revenues and profitability;

·

the loss of key members of our management team could significantly disrupt our operations;

·

the effect of claims asserted against us could subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities;
a security breach of our or our third-party vendors’ information technology systems may subject us to potential legal and

· reputational harm and may result in a violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 or the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act; and


other factors discussed from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2019, as such risk factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC.

SEC, including the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors on this Form 10-Q.

Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we are under no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of any new information, future events, or otherwise. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results or performance.

Investors should also be aware that while we do, from time to time, communicate with securities analysts, it is against our policy to disclose to securities analysts any material non-public information or other confidential commercial information. Accordingly, stockholders should not assume that we agree with any statement or report issued by any securities analyst irrespective of the content of the statement or report. Thus, to the extent that reports issued by securities analysts contain any projections, forecasts or opinions, such reports are not the responsibility of the Company.

Overview

We began operations in 1997 and, based on number of facilities, are one of the largest operators of specialtycritical illness recovery hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation clinics, and occupational medicinehealth centers in the United States. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, we had operations in 4647 states and the District of Columbia. As of September 30, 2017, weWe operated 123 specialty101 critical illness recovery hospitals in 28 states, 29 rehabilitation hospitals in 12 states, and 1,6041,753 outpatient rehabilitation clinics in 37 states and the District of Columbia. Concentra, which is operated through a joint venture subsidiary, operated 312 medical523 occupational health centers in 3841 states as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. Concentra also provides contract services at employer worksites and Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinics or “CBOCs.”

We manage our Company through three business segments: specialty hospitals,(“CBOCs”).

Our reportable segments include the critical illness recovery hospital segment, the rehabilitation hospital segment, the outpatient rehabilitation segment, and Concentra.the Concentra segment. We had net operating revenues of $3,329.2$1,414.6 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. Of this total, we earned approximately 54%35% of our net operating revenues from our specialty hospitalscritical illness recovery hospital segment, approximately 23%13% from our rehabilitation hospital segment, approximately 18% from our outpatient rehabilitation segment, and approximately 23%28% from our Concentra segment. Our critical illness recovery hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve the needs of patients recovering from critical illnesses, often with complex medical needs, and our rehabilitation hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve patients that require intensive physical rehabilitation care. Patients are typically admitted to our specialtycritical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals from general acute care hospitals. These patients have specialized needs, with serious and often complex medical conditions. Our outpatient rehabilitation segment consists of clinics that provide physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation services. Our Concentra segment consists of medicaloccupational health centers that provide workers’ compensation injury care, physical therapy, and contractconsumer health services providedas well as onsite clinics located at employer worksites andthat deliver occupational medicine services. Additionally, our Concentra segment delivers veteran’s healthcare through its Department of Veterans Affairs CBOCs that deliver occupational medicine, physical therapy, veteran’s healthcare,CBOCs.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we began reporting the net operating revenues and consumer health services.

expenses associated with employee leasing services provided to our non-consolidating subsidiaries as part of our other activities. Previously, these services were reflected in the financial results of our reportable segments. Under these employee leasing arrangements, actual labor costs are passed through to our non-consolidating subsidiaries, resulting in our recognition of net operating revenues equal to the actual labor costs incurred. Prior year results presented herein have been changed to conform to the current presentation.


Non-GAAP Measure

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, is important to investors because Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as an analytical indicator of performance by investors within the healthcare industry. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate financial performance and determine resource allocation for each of our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).GAAP. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income, income from operations, cash flows generated by 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 GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations,definitions, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain (loss) on early retirement of debt, stock compensation expense, Physiotherapy acquisition costs, non-operating gain (loss), on sale of businesses, and equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries. We will refer to Adjusted EBITDA throughout the remainder of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The table below reconciles net income and income from operations to Adjusted EBITDA and should be referenced when we discuss Adjusted EBITDA.

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Results of Operations
The broader implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations and overall financial performance remain uncertain. We are a healthcare service provider that provides patient care services in both inpatient and outpatient settings. We have provided certain additional performance metrics to assist readers in understanding how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted each of our segments during the one month ended March 31, 2020, including our (i) net operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the two months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, (ii) net operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the one month ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, (iii) net operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and (iv) certain operating statistics for each of the aforementioned periods. Please refer to our risk factors discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q and as previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for further discussion.
Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment. Our critical illness recovery hospitals are a key part of the inpatient hospital continuum of care. Both CMS and Congress acted to temporarily suspend certain regulations concerning length of stay requirements, which impact our critical illness recovery hospitals, in order to facilitate the transfer of patients from general acute care hospitals (see “Regulatory Changes” for further discussion of the temporary suspension of regulations). This was done in order to expand hospital bed capacity to care for COVID-19 patients. As COVID-19 has spread in the general acute care hospitals in many markets where we operate, we have admitted patients with COVID-19 and have faced the challenging task of treating them while attempting to protect our patients and staff members who do not have COVID-19. We have followed CDC guidelines, directives and recommendations with regard to the use of personal protective equipment and the isolation and treatment of patients with COVID-19. The pandemic has caused, and will continue to cause, disruptions in our critical illness recovery hospitals, which include, in some cases, the addition or reduction of beds, the creation of isolated units and spaces, temporary increases or restrictions on admissions, the incurrence of additional costs, staff illnesses, and the increased use of contract clinical labor.

Rehabilitation Hospital Segment. Our rehabilitation hospitals receive most of their admissions from general acute care hospitals. Both CMS and Congress acted to temporarily suspend certain regulations that govern admissions into our rehabilitation hospitals to facilitate the transfer of patients from general acute care hospitals and critical illness recovery hospitals (see “Regulatory Changes” for further discussion of the temporary suspension of regulations). This was done in order to expand hospital bed capacity to care for COVID-19 patients. As COVID-19 has spread in the general acute care hospitals in many markets where we operate, we have admitted patients with COVID-19 and have faced the challenging task of treating them while attempting to protect our patients and staff members who do not have COVID-19. We have followed CDC guidelines, directives and recommendations with regard to the use of personal protective equipment and the isolation and treatment of patients with COVID-19. The pandemic has caused, and will continue to cause, disruptions in our rehabilitation hospitals, which include, in some cases, the addition or reduction of beds, the creation of isolated units and spaces, temporary restrictions on admissions, the incurrence of additional costs, staff illnesses, and the increased use of contract clinical labor. Additionally, elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities have been suspended which is reducing the need for inpatient rehabilitation services.
Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment. Beginning in mid-March, hospitals and other facilities began to suspend elective surgeries. Additionally, state governments in the areas experiencing the most significant growth of COVID-19 infections began implementing mandatory closures of non-essential or non-life sustaining businesses, restrictions on individual activities outside of the home, restrictions on travel, and closures of schools. These actions continued to expand throughout March and by the end of March, most states implemented significant restrictions on businesses and individuals. The suspension of elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities and the reduction of physician office visits combined with recommendations of social distancing and the other items noted above have had significant effects on our patient visit volumes. As a result, we have temporarily consolidated the operations of some of our clinics by transferring staff and patients.
Concentra Segment. Beginning in mid-March, state governments in the areas experiencing the most significant growth of COVID-19 infections began implementing mandatory closures of non-essential or non-life sustaining businesses. These actions continued to expand throughout March. By the end of March, most states implemented significant restrictions on businesses. These actions have had significant effects on our patient visit volumes as employers have furloughed workforces and temporarily ceased operations or have significantly reduced their operations. As a result, we have temporarily consolidated the operations of some of our centers by transferring staff and patients.
We provided below certain performance measures and operating statistics used by management to help illustrate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we defined the pre-COVID-19 outbreak period as the two months ended February 29, 2020, and the post-COVID-19 outbreak period as the one month ended March 31, 2020. We provided prior year comparative data for the pre-COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 outbreak periods presented. The following performance measures and operating statistics should be considered in conjunction with the operating results for the full quarter ended March 31, 2020. The performance measures and operating statistics presented for the two months ended February 29, 2020 and the one month ended March 31, 2020 are, when combined, equal to the performance measures and operating statistics presented for the full quarter ended March 31, 2020. The same is true for the prior year comparative data.

Implementation of Patient Criteria

As discussed below under “Regulatory Changes — Medicare Reimbursement of LTCH Services — Patient Criteria,” our LTCHs transitioned to new Medicare regulations, which established payment limits for Medicare patients discharged from an LTCH who do not meet specified patient criteria, beginning October 1, 2015. Since completing our transition to the new LTCH Medicare patient criteria regulations during the third quarter of 2016, we have experienced an increase in admissions of patients eligible for the full LTCH-PPS standard reimbursement rate.

The table below illustrates the trends of our case mix index and occupancy percentages during the periods in which our LTCHs became subject to the new patient criteria requirements.

(1)                                     Case mix index, which is calculated as the sum of all diagnostic-related group weights for the period divided by the sum of discharges for the same period, is reflective of the level of patient-acuity in our LTCHs.

From 2015 to 2017, our case mix index has increased, which is reflective of the higher-acuity patients we are now admitting under patient criteria. This has resulted in increases in our net revenue per patient day due to higher reimbursement rates for these cases. Our LTCH occupancy percentage reached its lowest level during the third quarter of 2016, which is the first quarter in which all of our LTCHs operated under the new Medicare payment rules.

Significant Events

Refinancing

On March 6, 2017, Select entered into a new senior secured credit agreement that provides for $1.6 billion in senior secured credit facilities comprising a $1.15 billion, seven-year term loan and a $450.0 million, five-year revolving credit facility, including a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit. Select used borrowings under the new Select credit facilities to: (i) repay the series E tranche B term loans due June 1, 2018, the series F tranche B term loans due March 31, 2021, and the revolving facility maturing March 1, 2018 under Select’s 2011 senior secured credit facility; and (ii) pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing.

Pending Acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks

On October 23, 2017, Select announced that Concentra Group Holdings entered into a Purchase Agreement dated October 22, 2017 with Concentra, Group Holdings Parent, U.S. HealthWorks, and DHHC.  Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Concentra will acquire the issued and outstanding shares of stock of U.S. HealthWorks, an occupational medicine and urgent care service provider.

In connection with the closing of the transaction, it is expected that Concentra Group Holdings will redeem certain of its outstanding equity interests from existing minority equity holders and subsequently, Concentra Group Holdings and a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Holdings Parent will merge, with Concentra Group Holdings surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Holdings Parent. As a result of the merger, the equity interests of Concentra Group Holdings outstanding after the redemption described above will be exchanged for membership interests in Group Holdings Parent.

The transaction values U.S. HealthWorks at $753.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments for working capital, cash, debt, transaction expenses and other items in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. DHHC, a subsidiary of Dignity Health, will be issued a 20% equity interest in Group Holdings Parent, which is valued at $238.0 million. The remainder of the purchase price will be paid in cash.  Select will retain a majority voting interest in Group Holdings Parent following the closing of the transaction.

Concentra expects to finance the transaction and related expenses using a proposed $555.0 million senior secured incremental term facility under its existing credit facility and a proposed $240.0 million second lien term facility, for which JP Morgan Chase, N.A. has provided Concentra with a debt commitment letter.

The transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018, is subject to a number of closing conditions, including clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

Regulatory Changes

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2019, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2017,20, 2020, contains a detailed discussion of the regulations that affect our business in Part I — Business — Government Regulations. The following is a discussion of some of the more significant healthcare regulatory changes that have affected our financial performance in the periods covered by this report or are likely to affect our financial performance and financial condition in the future. The information below should be read in conjunction with the more detailed discussion of regulations contained in our Form 10-K.

Medicare Reimbursement

The Medicare program reimburses healthcare providers for services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries, which are generally persons age 65 and older, those who are chronically disabled, and those suffering from end stage renal disease. The program is governed by the Social Security Act of 1965 and is administered primarily by the Department of Health and Human Services and CMS. Net operating revenues generated directly from the Medicare program represented approximately 30%26% of our net operating revenues for both the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2020, and 26% of our net operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2016.

2019.

Federal Health Care Program Changes in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
On January 31, 2020, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) declared a public health emergency under section 319 of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. § 247d, in response to the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States. On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared a national emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the HHS Secretary authorized the waiver or modification of certain requirements under the Medicare, Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (“CHIP”) pursuant to section 1135 of the Social Security Act. Under this authority, CMS issued a number of blanket waivers that excuse health care providers or suppliers from specific program requirements. The following blanket waivers, while in effect, may impact our results of operations:
i.Inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”), IRF units, and hospitals and units applying to be classified as IRFs, can exclude patients admitted solely to respond to the emergency from the calculation of the “60 percent rule” thresholds to receive payment as an IRF.
ii.Long-term care hospitals (“LTCHs”), and hospitals seeking LTCH classification, can exclude patient stays from the greater-than-25-day average length of stay requirement where the patient was admitted or discharged to meet the demands of the emergency.
iii.Medicare will not require out-of-state physician and non-physician practitioners to be licensed in the state where they are providing services when they are licensed in another state, subject to state or local licensure requirements.
iv.Many requirements under the hospital conditions of participation (“CoPs”) are waived during the emergency period to give hospitals more flexibility in treating COVID-19 patients.
v.Hospitals can operate temporary expansion locations without meeting the provider-based entity requirements or the hospital CoPs that continue to apply during the emergency. This waiver also allows hospitals to change the status of their current provider-based department locations to meet patient needs as part of the state or local pandemic plan.
vi.IRFs, LTCHs and certain other providers do not need to submit quality data to Medicare for October 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 to comply with the quality reporting programs.
vii.
The HHS Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) waived sanctions under the physician self-referral law (i.e., Stark law) for patient referrals and claims related to the emergency. The OIG will also exercise enforcement discretion to not impose administrative sanctions under the federal anti-kickback statute for many payments covered by the Stark law waivers.
CMS also approved 53 state Medicaid program emergency waivers, 39 state plan amendments, 16 COVID-19 pandemic related Medicaid Disaster Amendments and one CHIP Disaster Amendment. CMS will consider specific waiver requests from providers and suppliers. We have submitted one or more specific waiver requests to make it easier for our operators or referral partners to treat COVID-19 patients, and we may submit others in the future.

Pursuant to the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, Public Law 116-123, CMS has waived Medicare telehealth payment requirements during the emergency so that beneficiaries in all areas of the country (not just rural areas) can receive telehealth services, including in their homes, beginning on March 6, 2020. CMS issued additional waivers to permit more than 80 additional services to be furnished by telehealth, allow physicians to monitor patient services remotely, and fulfill face-to-face requirements in IRFs.
In addition to these agency actions, the CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020. It provides additional waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 public health emergency. Some of the CARES Act provisions that may impact our operations include:
i.$100 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the coronavirus, and for reimbursing “eligible health care providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues that are attributable to coronavirus.” Half of the fund is allocated for general distribution to Medicare providers. The first $30 billion was distributed to health care providers that received Medicare fee-for-service payments in 2019. The remaining $20 billion is being distributed to Medicare providers in a manner that makes the entire $50 billion general distribution proportional to providers’ share of 2018 net patient revenue. The other half of the fund is for targeted allocations to providers in high impact COVID-19 areas ($10 billion), rural providers ($10 billion), Indian Health Service ($400 million), and unspecified allocations for treatment of uninsured COVID-19 patients and providers who need additional funding such as skilled nursing facilities, dentists, and providers that only treat Medicaid patients.
ii.Expansion of the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program to advance three months of payments to Medicare providers as loans to be repaid after 120 days.
iii.Temporary suspension of the 2% cut to Medicare payments due to sequestration so that, for the period of May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, the Medicare program will be exempt from any sequestration order.
iv.Two waivers of Medicare statutory requirements regarding site neutral payment to LTCHs. The first waives the LTCH discharge payment percentage requirement (i.e., 50% rule) for the cost reporting period(s) that include the emergency period. The second waives application of the site neutral payment rate so that all LTCH cases admitted during the emergency period will be paid the LTCH-PPS standard federal rate.
v.Waiver of the IRF 3-hour rule so that IRF services provided during the public health emergency period do not need to meet the coverage requirement that patients receive at least 3 hours of therapy a day or 15 hours of therapy per week.
The CARES Act also provides for a 20% increase in the payment weight for Medicare payments to hospitals paid under the inpatient hospital prospective payment system (“IPPS”) for treating COVID-19 patients. We are monitoring developments related to this provision, in case CMS provides a similar payment add-on for LTCHs and IRFs.

The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $26,537,$26,552, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 20172019 fiscal year of $23,573.

Patient Criteria

The BBA of 2013, enacted December 26, 2013, establishes a dual-rate LTCH-PPS for Medicare patients discharged from an LTCH. Specifically, for Medicare patients discharged$25,743. For LTCH discharges occurring in cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015, LTCHs will be reimbursed at the LTCH-PPS standard federalin FY 2020, site neutral payment rate only if, immediately preceding the patient’s LTCH admission, the patient was discharged from a “subsection (d) hospital” (generally, a short-term acute care hospital paid under the inpatient prospective payment system, or “IPPS”) and either the patient’s stay included at least three days in an intensive care unit (ICU) or coronary care unit (CCU) at the subsection (d) hospital, or the patient was assigned to Medicare severity diagnosis-related group (“MS-LTC-DRG”) for LTCHs for cases receiving at least 96 hours of ventilator services in the LTCH. In addition,will begin to be paid atfully on the LTCH-PPS standard federalsite neutral payment rate, rather than the patient’s discharge fromtransitional blended rate. However, the LTCH may not include a principal diagnosis relating to psychiatric or rehabilitation services. For any Medicare patient who does not meet these criteria,CARES Act waives the LTCH will be paid a lower “site neutral” payment rate, which will be the lower of: (i) IPPS comparable per diem payment rate capped at the Medicare severity diagnosis-related group (“MS-DRG”) payment rate plus any outlier payments; or (ii) 100 percent of the estimated costs for services.

The BBA of 2013 provides for a transition to the site-neutralsite neutral payment rate for those patients not paid at the LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate. During the transitionadmitted during such coronavirus emergency period (applicable to hospital cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015 and on or before September 30, 2017), a blended rate will be paid for Medicare patients not meeting the new criteria that is equal to 50% of the site-neutral payment rate amount and 50% of the standard federal payment rate amount. For discharges in cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017, only the site-neutral payment rate will apply for Medicare patients not meeting the new criteria.

In addition, for cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2019, qualifying discharges from an LTCH will continue to be paid at the LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate, unless the number of discharges for which payment is made under the site-neutral payment rate is greater than 50% of the total number of discharges from the LTCH for that period. If the number of discharges for which payment is made under the site-neutral payment rate is greater than 50%, then beginning in the next cost reporting period all discharges from the LTCH will be reimbursed at the site-neutral payment rate. The BBA of 2013 requires CMS to establish a process for an LTCH subject to only the site-neutral payment rate to be reinstated for payment under the dual-rate LTCH-PPS.

Payment adjustments, including the interrupted stay policy and the 25 Percent Rule (discussed below), apply to LTCH discharges regardless of whether the case is paid at the standard federal payment rate or the site-neutral payment rate. However, short stay outlier payment adjustments do not apply to cases paid at the site-neutral payment rate. CMS calculates the annual recalibration of the MS-LTC-DRG relative payment weighting factors using only data from LTCH discharges that meet the criteria for exclusion from the site-neutral payment rate. In addition, CMS applies the IPPS fixed-loss amount for high cost outliers to site-neutral cases, rather than the LTCH-PPS fixed-loss amount. CMS calculates the LTCH-PPS fixed-loss amount using only data from cases paid at the LTCH-PPS payment rate, excluding cases paid at the site-neutral rate.

Medicare Market Basket Adjustments

The ACA instituted a market basket payment adjustment to LTCHs. In fiscal years 2018 and 2019, the market basket update will be reduced by 0.75%. The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 sets the annual update for fiscal year 2018 at 1% after taking into account the market basket payment reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. The ACA specifically allows these market basket reductions to result in less than a 0% payment update and payment rates that are less than the prior year.

25 Percent Rule

The “25 Percent Rule” is a downward payment adjustment that applies if the percentage of Medicare patients discharged from LTCHs who were admitted from a referring hospital (regardless of whether the LTCH or LTCH satellite is co-located with the referring hospital) exceeds the applicable percentage admissions threshold during a particular cost reporting period. For Medicare patients above the applicable percentage admissions threshold, the LTCH is reimbursed at a rate equivalent to that under general acute care hospital IPPS, which is generally lower than LTCH-PPS rates. Cases that reach outlier status in the referring hospital do not count toward the admissions threshold and are paid under LTCH-PPS.

Current law, as amended by the 21st Century Cures Act, precludes CMS from applying the 25 Percent Rule for freestanding LTCHs to cost reporting years beginning before July 1, 2016 and for discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2016 and before October 1, 2017. In addition, current law applies higher percentage admissions thresholds under the 25 Percent Rule for most hospitals within hospitals (“HIHs”) for cost reporting years beginning before July 1, 2016 and effective for discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2016 and before October 1, 2017. For freestanding LTCHs the percentage admissions threshold is suspended during the relief periods. For HIHs the percentage admissions threshold is raised from 25% to 50% during the relief periods. In the special case of rural LTCHs, LTCHs co-located with an urban single hospital, or LTCHs co-located with a Metropolitan Statistical Area (“MSA”) dominant hospital the referral percentage was raised from 50% to 75%. Grandfathered HIHs are exempt from the 25 Percent Rule regulations.

For fiscal year 2018, CMS adopted a regulatory moratorium on the implementation of the 25 Percent Rule. As a result, the 25 Percent Rule applies to discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2018. After the expiration of the regulatory moratorium, our LTCHs (whether freestanding, HIH or satellite) will be subject to a downward payment adjustment for any Medicare patients who were admitted from a co-located or a non-co-located hospital and that exceed the applicable percentage admissions threshold of all Medicare patients discharged from the LTCH during the cost reporting period. These regulatory changes will have an adverse financial impact on the net operating revenues and profitability of many of these hospitals for discharges on or after October 1, 2018.

Short Stay Outlier Policy

CMS established a different payment methodology for Medicare patients with a length of stay less than or equal to five-sixths of the geometric average length of stay for that particular MS-LTC-DRG, referred to as a short stay outlier, or “SSO.” SSO cases are paid based on the lesser of (i) 100% of the average cost of the case, (ii) 120% of the MS-LTC-DRG specific per diem amount multiplied by the patient’s length of stay, (iii) the full MS-LTC-DRG payment, or (iv) a per diem rate derived from blending 120% of the MS-LTC-DRG specific per diem amount with a per diem rate based on the general acute care hospital IPPS.

For fiscal year 2018, CMS adopted changesresponse to the SSO policy such that all SSO cases discharged on or after October 1, 2017 are paid based on a per diem rate derived from blending 120% of the MS-LTC-DRG specific per diem amount with a per diem rate based on the general acute care hospital IPPS. Under this policy,public health emergency, as the length of stay of a SSO case increases, the percentage of the per diem payment amounts based on the full MS-LTCH-DRG standard federal payment rate increases and the percentage of the payment based on the IPPS comparable amount decreases.

Moratorium on New LTCHs, LTCH Satellite Facilities and LTCH beds

Current law imposes a moratorium on the establishment and classification of new LTCHs or LTCH satellite facilities, and on the increase of LTCH beds in existing LTCHs or satellite facilities through September 30, 2017. There are three exceptions to the moratorium for projects that were under development when the moratorium began on April 1, 2014. Only one exception needs to exist for the moratorium not to apply.

Medicare payments to our IRFsrehabilitation hospitals are made in accordance with the inpatient rehabilitation facility prospective payment system (“IRF-PPS”).

Fiscal Year 20162019. On August 6, 2015,2018, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 20162019 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 20152018 through September 30, 2016)2019). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 20162019 was set at $15,478,$16,021, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 20152018 of $15,198.$15,838. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 20162019 included a market basket increase of 2.4%2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.5%0.8%, and less a reduction of 0.2%0.75% mandated by the ACA. CMS decreasedincreased the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 20162019 to $8,658$9,402 from $8,848$8,679 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2015.

2018.

Fiscal Year 2017.2020. On August 5, 2016,8, 2019, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 20172020 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 20162019 through September 30, 2017)2020). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 20172020 was set at $15,708,$16,489, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 20162019 of $15,478.$16,021. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 20172020 included a market basket increase of 2.7%2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.3%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA.0.4%. CMS decreased the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 20172020 to $7,984$9,300 from $8,658$9,402 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2016.

2019.

Fiscal Year 2018.2021. On August 3, 2017,April 16, 2020, CMS publishedreleased an advanced copy of the final rule updatingproposed policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 20182021 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 20172020 through September 30, 2018)2021). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 2018 was2021 would be set at $15,838,$16,847, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 20172020 of $15,708.$16,489. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2018 included2021, if adopted, would include a market basket increase of 2.6%2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.6%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. As noted below, the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2018 is impacted further by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which limits the update for fiscal year 2018 to 1.0%0.4%. CMS increasedproposed to decrease the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 20182021 to $8,679$8,102 from $7,984$9,300 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2017.

Medicare Market Basket Adjustments

The ACA instituted a market basket payment adjustment for IRFs. In fiscal years 2018 and 2019, the market basket update will be reduced by 0.75%. The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 sets the annual update for fiscal year 2018 at 1% after taking into account the market basket payment reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. The ACA specifically allows these market basket reductions to result in less than a 0% payment update and payment rates that are less than the prior year.

Patient Classification Criteria

In order to qualify as an IRF a hospital must demonstrate that during its most recent twelve month cost reporting period it served an inpatient population of whom at least 60% required intensive rehabilitation services for one or more of 13 conditions specified by regulation. Compliance with the 60% rule is demonstrated through either medical review or the “presumptive” method, in which a patient’s diagnosis codes are compared to a “presumptive compliance” list.  For fiscal year 2018, CMS revised the 60% rule’s presumptive methodology by (i) including certain International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (“ICD-10-CM”) diagnosis codes for patients with traumatic brain injury and hip fracture conditions; and (ii) revising the presumptive methodology list for major multiple trauma by counting IRF cases that contain two or more of the ICD-10-CM codes from three major multiple trauma lists in the specified combinations.

2020.

Medicare Reimbursement of Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic Services

Outpatient rehabilitation providers enroll in Medicare as a rehabilitation agency, a clinic, or a public health agency. The Medicare program reimburses outpatient rehabilitation providers based on the Medicare physician fee schedule. For services provided in 2017 through 2019, a 0.5% update will bewas applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to an adjustment beginning in 2019 under the Merit-BasedMerit‑Based Incentive Payment System (“MIPS”). In 2019, CMS added physical and occupational therapists to the list of MIPS eligible clinicians. For these therapists in private practice, payments under the fee schedule are subject to adjustment in a later year based on their performance in MIPS according to established performance standards. Calendar year 2021 is the first year that payments are adjusted, based upon the therapist’s performance under MIPS in 2019. Providers in facility-based outpatient therapy settings are excluded from MIPS eligibility and therefore not subject to this payment adjustment. For services provided in 2020 through 2025, a 0.0% percent update will be applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to adjustments under MIPS and the alternative payment models (“APMs”). In 2026 and subsequent years, eligible professionals participating in APMs thatwho meet certain criteria would receive annual updates of 0.75%, while all other professionals would receive annual updates of 0.25%.

Beginning in 2019, payments under the fee schedule are subject to adjustment based on performance in MIPS, which measures performance based on certain quality metrics, resource use, and meaningful use of electronic health records. Under the MIPS requirements a provider’s performance is assessed according to established performance standards and used to determine an adjustment factor that is then applied to the professional’s payment for a year.



Each year from 2019 through 2024 professionalseligible clinicians who receive a significant share of their revenues through an advanced APM (such as accountable care organizations or bundled payment arrangements) that involves risk of financial losses and a quality measurement component will receive a 5% bonus. The bonus payment for APM participation is intended to encourage participation and testing of new APMs and to promote the alignment of incentives across payors. The specifics
In the final 2020 Medicare physician fee schedule, CMS revised coding, documentation guidelines, and valuation for evaluation and management (“E/M”) office visit codes. Because the Medicare physician fee schedule is budget-neutral, any revaluation of E/M services that will increase spending by more than $20 million will require a budget neutrality adjustment. To increase values for the E/M codes while maintaining budget neutrality under the fee schedule, CMS proposed cuts to other codes to make up the difference, beginning in 2021. Under the proposal, physical and occupational therapy services could see code reductions that may result in an estimated 8% decrease in payment. However, many providers have opposed the proposed cuts, and CMS has not yet determined the actual cuts to each code.
Modifiers to Identify Services of Physical Therapy Assistants or Occupational Therapy Assistants
In the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule final rule for calendar year 2019, CMS established two new modifiers (CQ and CO) to identify services furnished in whole or in part by physical therapy assistants (“PTAs”) or occupational therapy assistants (“OTAs”). These modifiers were mandated by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which requires that claims for outpatient therapy services furnished in whole or part by therapy assistants on or after January 1, 2020 include the appropriate modifier. CMS intends to use these modifiers to implement a payment differential that would reimburse services provided by PTAs and OTAs at 85% of the MIPSfee schedule rate beginning on January 1, 2022. In the final 2020 Medicare physician fee schedule rule, CMS clarified that when the physical therapist is involved for the entire duration of the service and APM adjustments beginning in 2019the PTA provides skilled therapy alongside the physical therapist, the CQ modifier is not required. Also, when the same service (code) is furnished separately by the physical therapist and 2020, respectively,PTA, CMS will be subjectapply the de minimis standard to future noticeeach 15-minute unit of codes, not on the total physical therapist and comment rule-making.

PTA time of the service, allowing the separate reporting, on two different claim lines, of the number of units to which the new modifiers apply and the number of units to which the modifiers do not apply.

further discussion regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Net Operating Revenues

Our net operating revenues increased 4.1%6.8% to $1,097.2$1,414.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $1,053.8$1,324.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Specialty HospitalsMarch 31, 2019.

Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 7.5%9.4% to $585.3$500.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $544.5$457.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for our specialty hospitals segment. The increase in net operating revenues is principally due to several new inpatient rehabilitation facilities which commenced operations during 2016 and 2017 and an increase in patient volumes at our LTCHs. Our patient days increased 6.7% to 316,170 days for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 296,202 days for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The average net revenue per patient day for our specialty hospitals increased 2.1% to $1,676 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $1,642 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.  Net operating revenues were $250.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $250.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for our outpatient rehabilitation segment. The decrease in net operating revenues was principally due to a decline in visits within areas affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which caused an estimated $2.9 million decrease in net operating revenues. Additionally, we experienced a decline in visits at Physiotherapy clinics within some of our markets. We had 1,986,213 visits in our clinics for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 2,052,678 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decline in net operating revenues attributable to lower patient volumes was offset in part by an increase in net revenue per visit. Net revenue per visit increased 2.0% to $104 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $102 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Concentra Segment.  Net operating revenues increased 1.1% to $261.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $258.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for our Concentra segment.March 31, 2019. The increase in net operating revenues was due to increases in both patient volume and net revenue per patient day. Our patient days increased 4.8% to 270,458 days for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 258,129 days for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in patient days was primarily attributable to the acquisition of three hospitals in April 2019 and one hospital in October 2019. Net revenue per patient day increased 4.5% to $1,839 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $1,759 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. We experienced increases in both our Medicare and non-Medicare net revenue per patient day.

Rehabilitation Hospital Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 17.8% to $182.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $154.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in net operating revenues resulted from increases in both patient volume and net revenue per patient day during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Our patient days increased 14.2% to 94,568 days for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 82,816 days for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in patient days was principally driven by our rehabilitation hospitals which commenced operations during 2019. We also experienced a 5.7% increase in patient days in our remaining hospitals. Of the 11,752 day increase experienced during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, 11,048 of those days occurred in January and February 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, certain of our rehabilitation hospitals, particularly those operating in areas more significantly impacted by the spread of COVID-19, such as New Jersey, experienced lower patient volume. Further, our rehabilitation hospitals experienced overall lower patient volume during March 2020 due to the suspension of elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities, which consequently reduced the demand for inpatient rehabilitation services. Our net revenue per patient day increased 6.1% to $1,732 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $1,633 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. We experienced increases in both our Medicare and non-Medicare net revenue per patient day.
Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 3.4% to $255.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $246.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in net operating revenues was primarily attributable to an increase in visits, from newly acquired and developed medical centers, offset in part by a decline in visits within areas affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which caused an estimated $1.2 million decrease in net operating revenues. Visits in our centers increased 3.8%3.3% to 1,979,4812,122,665 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 2,054,483 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019. We experienced an increase of 150,615 visits during January and February 2020, as compared to 1,906,242the same period in 2019. During March 2020, our outpatient rehabilitation clinics experienced a decrease of 82,433 visits, as compared to March 2019. The decline in volume during March 2020, which became more significant by mid-month, resulted from the actions taken by governmental authorities and those in the private sector to limit the spread of COVID-19, combined with recommendations to practice social distancing. Our outpatient rehabilitation clinics experienced less demand for services due to a decline in patient referrals from physicians, a reduction in workers’ compensation injury visits due to the temporary closure of non-essential and non-life sustaining businesses, the suspension of elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities, which has resulted in less demand for outpatient rehabilitation services, as well as mandated social distancing measures. By the end of March 2020, we have temporarily closed 131 clinics. In many instances, we were able to transfer patients and our staff to other nearby outpatient rehabilitation clinics which remained open. Our net revenue per visit was $104 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $103 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Concentra Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 0.6% to $398.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $396.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Visits in our centers were 2,877,395 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 2,911,607 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The growth in visits primarily related toMarch 31, 2019. We experienced an increase of 93,147 visits during January and February 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. During March 2020, our Concentra centers experienced a decrease of 127,359 visits, as compared to March 2019. In March 2020, employers began to furlough their workforces and temporarily cease or significantly reduce their operations as a result of the actions of governmental authorities and those in the private sector to limit the spread of COVID-19. Consequently, our centers experienced a reduction in workers’ compensation and employer services visits. By the end of March 2020, we have temporarily closed 19 centers and reduced the operating hours of 159 centers. In many instances where we temporarily closed centers, we were able to transfer patients and our staff to other nearby centers which remained open. Net revenue per visit was $116$123 for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $119$124 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2019. The decrease in net revenue per visit iswas principally due to an increased proportion of employer servicea decrease in workers’ compensation visits, which yield lowerhigher per visit rates.

rates, and a decrease in our employer services per visit rate during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Operating Expenses

Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA increased 43.9%21.3% to $69.5$88.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $48.3$73.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for our specialty hospitals segment.March 31, 2019. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the specialty hospitalscritical illness recovery hospital segment was 11.9%17.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to 8.9%16.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2019. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for our specialty hospitalscritical illness recovery hospital segment were primarily driven by increases in our net revenue per patient day and the improved operating performanceacquisition of our LTCHs and reductions infour hospitals during 2019, as discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.”
Rehabilitation Hospital Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA losses in our start-up specialty hospitals. Adjusted EBITDA losses in our start-up specialty hospitals were $1.5increased 49.5% to $38.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $9.0$25.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

March 31, 2019. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the rehabilitation hospital segment was 21.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 16.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increases in our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin primarily occurred as a result of our operating performance in January and February 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. Adjusted EBITDA increased 72.5% to $27.4 million for January and February 2020, compared to $15.9 million for the same period in 2019. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 22.4% for January and February 2020, compared to 16.1% for the same period in 2019. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are primarily attributable to increases in patient volume and net revenue per patient day at many of our existing hospitals. Additionally, we experienced an increase in Adjusted EBITDA from our hospitals which commenced operations during 2019. Though we experienced increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in March 2020, as compared to the prior year, these increases were offset, in part, by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, as discussed above. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Adjusted EBITDA results for the rehabilitation hospital segment include start-up losses of approximately $2.8 million.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA was $29.3$27.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $32.0$29.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for our outpatient rehabilitation segment.March 31, 2019. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the outpatient rehabilitation segment was 10.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 11.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 12.8% forMarch 31, 2019. For the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decreaseMarch 31, 2020, the decline in Adjusted EBITDA was principally dueand Adjusted EBITDA margin were primarily caused by an 11.6% decrease in visits during March 2020, as compared to athe same period in 2019. The decline in visits resulted from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as described above. In response to the decline in patient volume and in an effort to reduce operating expenses, we temporarily consolidated, where possible, the operations of clinics which operate within areasclose proximity to one another and took other steps to reduce labor costs. Prior to our outpatient rehabilitation clinics becoming affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, as discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.” Additionally, we experienced a decline in visits at Physiotherapy clinics within some of our markets. The decline inthe COVID-19 pandemic, our Adjusted EBITDA had increased 33.6% to $23.1 million for January and February 2020, compared to $17.3 million for the same period in 2019. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 12.9% for our outpatient rehabilitation segment wasJanuary and February 2020, compared to 10.7% for the result of higher labor expenses relative to our net operating revenues within markets which have experienced a declinesame period in patient volumes.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the decline in Adjusted EBITDA was principally dueand Adjusted EBITDA margin were primarily caused by a 12.6% decrease in visits during March 2020, as compared to athe same period in 2019. The decline in visits resulted from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as described above. In response to the decline in patient volume and in an effort to reduce operating expenses, we temporarily consolidated, where possible, the operations of centers which operate within areasclose proximity to one another, reduced the operating hours of certain centers, and took other steps to reduce labor costs. Prior to our centers becoming affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, as discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.”

Other.  Thethe COVID-19 pandemic, Adjusted EBITDA losshad increased 11.7% to $45.5 million for January and February 2020, compared to $40.8 million for the same period in 2019. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 16.6% for January and February 2020, compared to 15.7% for the same period in 2019.

Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $22.9$51.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $23.1$52.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $38.8March 31, 2019.

Income from Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had income from operations of $128.7 million, compared to $111.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $37.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was principally due to new inpatient rehabilitation facilities operating in our specialty hospitals segment.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had income from operations of $72.1 million, compared to $56.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2019. The increase in income from operations resulted principally from the improved operating performance ofoccurred within our specialty hospitals segment.

Loss on Early Retirement of Debt

On September 26, 2016, Concentra prepaid the second lien term loan under the Concentra credit facilities, resulting in a loss on early retirement of debt of approximately $10.9 million. The loss on early retirement of debt consisted of a prepayment premium, unamortized debt issuance costs,rehabilitation hospital and unamortized original issue discounts.

critical illness recovery hospital segments.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

Our equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries relates to rehabilitation businesses and other healthcare-related businesses in which we are a minority owner. For the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, we had equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries of $4.4$2.6 million, compared to $5.3$4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2019. The decrease in our equity in earnings was principally caused by a decline in performance of unconsolidated subsidiaries resulted principally from losses incurred by start-up companiesthe healthcare-related businesses in which we own a minority interest.

Gain on Sale of Businesses
We recognized gains of $7.2 million and $6.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These gains were attributable to the sales of outpatient rehabilitation businesses.
Interest Expense

Interest expense was $37.7$46.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to $44.5$50.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2019.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $14.0$21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, which represented an effective tax rate of 36.1%23.7%. We recorded income tax expense of $1.1$18.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016,March 31, 2019, which represented an effective tax rate of 21.2%25.7%. Our quarterlyFor the three months ended March 31, 2020, the lower effective income tax rate is derivedresulted primarily from the discrete tax benefits realized from the exercise of certain equity options in connection with the purchase of additional membership interests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent, as described under “Other Significant Events.” The impact of these tax benefits were offset, in part, by the sale of an outpatient rehabilitation business. The selling price for this business exceeded our full year estimated effective income tax rate and can be impacted bybasis, resulting in a taxable gain.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests was $6.4$17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, compared to net losses attributable to non-controlling interests of $2.5$12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is principally due to increases in net income of our joint venture subsidiary, Concentra, and the improved operating performance of joint venture inpatient rehabilitation facilities operating within our specialty hospitals segment.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016

In the following, we discuss our results of operations related to net operating revenues, operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, depreciation and amortization, income from operations, loss on early retirement of debt, equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries, non-operating gain, interest expense, income taxes, and net income attributable to non-controlling interests, which, in each case, are the same for Holdings and Select.

Net Operating Revenues

Our net operating revenues increased 2.8% to $3,329.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $3,239.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Specialty Hospitals Segment.  Net operating revenues increased 3.2% to $1,785.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $1,729.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our specialty hospitals segment. The increase in net operating revenues is principally due to several new inpatient rehabilitation facilities which commenced operations during 2016 and 2017. The average net revenue per patient day for our specialty hospitals increased 3.4% to $1,707 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $1,651 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had 950,419 patient days, compared to 951,292 days for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in patient days is principally due to closed specialty hospitals.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.  Net operating revenues increased 2.5% to $764.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $745.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our outpatient rehabilitation segment. The increase in net operating revenues was principally due to the acquisition of Physiotherapy on March 4, 2016, which contributed to the overall growth in our visits. Additionally, we experienced an increase in our net revenue per visit. Visits increased 7.3% to 6,168,763 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 5,751,562 visits for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net revenue per visit increased 1.0% to $103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $102 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in net operating revenues was offset in part by the sale of our contract therapy businesses on March 31, 2016.

Concentra Segment.  Net operating revenues increased 1.9% to $779.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $764.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our Concentra segment.  The increase in net operating revenues was principally due to an increase in visits from newly acquired and developed medical centers. Visits in our centers increased 3.7% to 5,848,551 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 5,642,305 visits for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The growth in visits principally related to an increase in employer services visits. Net revenue per visit was $117 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $118 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in net revenue per visit is principally due to an increased proportion of employer service visits, which yield lower per visit rates.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses include our cost of services, general and administrative expense, and bad debt expense. Our operating expenses were $2,930.0 million, or 88.0% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $2,887.8 million, or 89.1% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our cost of services, a major component of which is labor expense, was $2,787.5 million, or 83.7% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $2,755.0 million, or 85.0% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in our operating expenses relative to our net operating revenues is principally due to the improved operating performance of our acquired and start-up specialty hospitals, specialty hospitals closures, and cost reductions achieved by Concentra.  Facility rent expense, a component of cost of services, was $171.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $167.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. General and administrative expenses were $83.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $81.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which included $3.2 million of Physiotherapy acquisition costs. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net operating revenues were 2.5% for both the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Our bad debt expense was $59.1 million, or 1.8% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $51.6 million, or 1.6% of net operating revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was principally the result of increases in bad debt expense in our specialty hospitals and Concentra segments.

Adjusted EBITDA

Specialty Hospitals Segment.  Adjusted EBITDA increased 17.7% to $256.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $217.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our specialty hospitals segment. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the segment was 14.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 12.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for our specialty hospitals segment were primarily driven by the improved operating performance of our LTCHs, reductions in Adjusted EBITDA losses in our start-up specialty hospitals, and the closure of specialty hospitals which had generated Adjusted EBITDA losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Adjusted EBITDA losses in our start-up specialty hospitals were $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $19.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.  Adjusted EBITDA increased 3.6% to $102.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $99.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our outpatient rehabilitation segment. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was principally due to growth in visits and an increase in net revenue per visit, as discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.” Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the outpatient rehabilitation segment was 13.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 13.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA margin was principally due to the sale of our contract therapy businesses on March 31, 2016, which operated at lower Adjusted EBITDA margins than our outpatient rehabilitation clinics.

Concentra Segment.  Adjusted EBITDA increased 6.4% to $125.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $118.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 for our Concentra segment. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the Concentra segment was 16.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 15.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margins for our Concentra segment were principally the result of cost reductions we have achieved.

Other.  The Adjusted EBITDA loss was $71.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $66.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in our Adjusted EBITDA loss was due to an increase in general and administrative costs, which encompass our corporate shared service activities.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $119.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $107.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.2019. The increase was principally due to new inpatient rehabilitation facilities operating in our specialty hospitals segment.

Income from Operations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had income from operations of $279.5 million, compared to $244.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in income from operations resulted principally from the improved operating performance of our specialty hospitals and Concentra segments.

Loss on Early Retirement of Debt

On March 6, 2017, we refinanced Select’s senior secured credit facilities which resulted in losses on early retirement of debt of $19.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

On March 4, 2016, we refinanced a portion of our term loans under Select’s 2011 senior secured credit facility which resulted in a loss on early retirement of debt of $0.8 million. On September 26, 2016, Concentra prepaid the second lien term loan under the Concentra credit facilities, resulting in a loss on early retirement of debt of approximately $10.9 million.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries of $15.6 million, compared to $14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in our equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries resulted principally from improved performance of the inpatient rehabilitation businesses in which we have a minority interest.

Non-Operating Gain

We recognized a non-operating gain of $37.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The non-operating gain was principally due to the sale of our contract therapy businesses on March 31, 2016, as well as the sale of nine outpatient rehabilitation clinics to a non-consolidating subsidiary and the sale of five specialty hospitals in an exchange transaction during the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $116.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $127.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in interest expense was principally the result of decreases in our interest rates associated with the refinancing of the Select credit facilities during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and the Concentra credit facilities during the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $59.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which represented an effective tax rate of 37.4% We recorded income tax expense of $51.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which represented an effective tax rate of 33.0%.

Our effective income tax rate is derived from our full year estimated effective income tax rate and can be impacted by discrete items specific to a particular quarter and quarterly changes in our full year tax provision estimate. On March 31, 2016, we sold our contract therapy businesses. Our tax basis in our contract therapy businesses exceeded our selling price; as a result, we had no tax expense from the sale. During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, we exchanged five specialty hospitals. Our tax basis in the five specialty hospitals was less than our book basis, resulting in a tax gain exceeding our book gain. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 resulted from the net effects of the two discrete tax events discussed above.

Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests was $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is principally due to increases in net incomeseveral of our joint venture subsidiary, Concentra, and the improved operating performance of joint venture inpatient rehabilitation facilities operating within our specialty hospitals segment.

Select credit facilities.  On March 6, 2017, Select entered into a new senior secured credit agreement that provides for $1.6 billion in senior secured credit facilities comprising a $1.15 billion, seven-year term loancash and a $450.0 million, five-year revolving credit facility, including a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit.  Select used borrowings under the Select credit facilities to: (i) repay the series E tranche B term loans due June 1, 2018, the series F tranche B term loans due March 31, 2021, and the revolving facility maturing March 1, 2018 under its then existing credit facilities; and (ii) pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing.

Borrowings under the Select credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal to: (i) in the case of the Select term loan, Adjusted LIBO (as defined in the Select credit agreement) plus 3.50% (subject to an Adjusted LIBO floor of 1.00%), or Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Select credit agreement) plus 2.50% (subject to an Alternate Base Rate floor of 2.00%); and (ii) in the case of the Select revolving facility, Adjusted LIBO plus a percentage ranging from 3.00% to 3.25% or Alternate Base Rate plus a percentage ranging from 2.00% to 2.25%, in each case based on Select’s leverage ratio.

The Select term loan amortizes in equal quarterly installments in amounts equal to 0.25% of the aggregate original principal amount of the Select term loan commencing on June 30, 2017. The balance of the Select term loan will be payable on March 8, 2024; however, if the Select 6.375% senior notes, which are due June 1, 2021, are outstanding on March 1, 2021, the maturity date for the Select term loan will become March 1, 2021. The Select revolving facility will be payable on March 8, 2022; however, if the Select 6.375% senior notes are outstanding on February 1, 2021, the maturity date for the Select revolving facility will become February 1, 2021.

Select will be required to prepay borrowings under the Select credit facilities with (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds received from non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions, orequivalents as a result of a casualty or condemnation, subject to reinvestment provisions and other customary carveouts and, to the extent required,purchase of additional membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent during the payment of certain indebtedness secured by liens having priority over the debtthree months ended March 31, 2020, as discussed above under the Other Significant Events.”

Select credit facilities or subject to a first lien intercreditor agreement, (ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds received from the issuance of debt obligations other than certain permitted debt obligations, and (iii) 50% of excess cash flow (as defined in thefacilities.
In February 2020, Select credit agreement) if Select’s leverage ratio is greater than 4.50 to 1.00 and 25% of excess cash flow if Select’s leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00 and greater than 4.00 to 1.00, in each case, reduced by the aggregate amount of term loans, revolving loans and certain other debt optionally prepaid during the applicable fiscal year. Select will not be required to prepay borrowings with excess cash flow if Select’s leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00.

The Select revolving facility requires Select to maintain a leverage ratio (as defined in the Select credit agreement), which is tested quarterly, not to exceed 6.25 to 1.00. After March 31, 2019, the leverage ratio must not exceed 6.00 to 1.00.  Failure to comply with this covenant would result in an event of default under the Select revolving facility and, absent a waiver or an amendment from the revolving lenders, preclude Select from making further borrowings under the Select revolving facility and permit the revolving lenders to accelerate all outstanding borrowings under the Select revolving facility. The termination of the Select revolving facility commitments and the acceleration of amounts outstanding thereunder would constitute an event of default with respect to the Select term loan. As of September 30, 2017, Select’s leverage ratio was 5.82 to 1.00.

The Select credit facilities also contain a number of other affirmative and restrictive covenants, including limitations on mergers, consolidations and dissolutions; sales of assets; investments and acquisitions; indebtedness; liens; affiliate transactions; and dividends and restricted payments. The Select credit facilities contain events of default for non-payment of principal and interest when due (subject, as to interest, to a grace period), cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions and an event of default that would be triggered by a change of control.

Borrowings under the Select credit facilities are guaranteed by Holdings and substantially all of Select’s current domestic subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by substantially all of Select’s future domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of Select’s existing and future property and assets and by a pledge of Select’s capital stock, the capital stock of Select’s domestic subsidiaries and up to 65% of the capital stock of Select’s foreign subsidiaries held directly by Select or a domestic subsidiary.

At September 30, 2017, Select had outstanding borrowings under the Select credit facilities consisting of a $1,144.3 million Select term loan (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $26.0 million) and borrowings of $320.0 million (excluding letters of credit) under the Select revolving facility. At September 30, 2017, Select had $91.4 million of availability under the Select revolving facility after giving effect to $38.6 million of outstanding letters of credit.

Concentra credit facilities.  Select and Holdings are not parties to the Concentra credit facilities and are not obligors with respect to Concentra’s debt under such agreements. While this debt is non-recourse to Select, it is included in Select’s consolidated financial statements.

On March 1, 2017, Concentra made a principal prepayment of $23.1approximately $39.8 million associated with its first lien term loans in accordance with the provision in the ConcentraSelect credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the ConcentraSelect credit facilities.

Stock Repurchase Program.  Holdings’ board of directors has authorized a common stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $500.0 million worth of shares of its common stock. The program has been extended until December 31, 2018,2020, and will remain in effect until then, unless further extended or earlier terminated by the board of directors. Stock repurchases under this program may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, and at times and in such amounts as Holdings deems appropriate. Holdings funds this program with cash on hand and borrowings under the Select revolving facility. Holdings did not repurchase shares duringDuring the three months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020, Holdings repurchased 491,559 shares at a cost of approximately $8.7 million, an average cost per share of $17.68, which includes transaction costs. Since the inception of the program through September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, Holdings has repurchased 35,924,12838,580,908 shares at a cost of approximately $314.7$356.6 million, or $8.76$9.24 per share, which includes transaction costs.

Liquidity.  We  The COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our operations during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The duration and extent of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and liquidity depends on future developments that cannot be accurately predicted at this time; however, we believe our internally generated cash flows, and borrowing capacity under the Select and ConcentraConcentra-JPM credit facilities, and other measures to enhance our liquidity position that we have taken, as described below, will be sufficientallow us to finance our operations over the next twelve months. As of March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $73.2 million, availability of $245.7 million under the Select revolving facility after giving effect to $39.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, and availability of $85.7 million under the Concentra-JPM revolving facility after giving effect to $14.3 million of outstanding letters of credit.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act, which is described further under “Regulatory Changes,” was enacted on March 27, 2020. As part of the CARES Act, $100.0 billion was authorized in relief funds to hospitals and other healthcare providers to prevent, prepare, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. These funds are used to reimburse providers for lost revenue attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide support for related healthcare expenses. Further, these relief funds ensure uninsured patients are receiving testing and treatment for COVID-19. We received approximately $93.7 million of payments as part of this relief in April 2020. These are payments, rather than loans, and will not need to be repaid. Additionally, the CARES Act allows for qualified healthcare providers to receive advanced payments under the existing Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments Program during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under this program, healthcare providers may receive advanced payments for future Medicare services provided. In order to improve our liquidity position, we applied for and received approval from CMS in April 2020 to receive advanced payments and, through April 30, 2020, we have received $316.1 million in payments. These advanced payments will be recouped by CMS from future Medicare claims billed by us, beginning 121 days after receipt of the advanced payment. After 120 days, any new Medicare claim we bill will reduce the amount owed to CMS. We are required to repay any advanced payments not recouped by CMS within 210 days from the date we originally received the payment.



In addition to applying for and receiving payments under the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments Program to enhance our liquidity in the short term, we have taken preemptive measures to reduce operating costs and expenses. Beginning in March and continuing into April 2020, we began reducing labor costs through employee furloughs, salary and wage reductions for certain employees, reducing the hours worked by part time employees, and limiting discretionary spending on capital expenditures. In April 2020, we began deferring payment on our share of payroll taxes owed, as allowed by the CARES Act through December 31, 2020, and negotiating with our landlords to receive temporary rent deferrals on certain of our facilities which have temporarily closed.
Additionally, the CARES Act included a technical correction to allow for bonus depreciation on certain types of qualified property for tax years beginning January 1, 2018, and provided for an increase in the amounts allowed for interest expense deductions for tax years beginning January 1, 2019. As a result of these provisions, we expect to reduce our estimated tax payments during 2020 by approximately $20.0 million.
At March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with each of our financial covenants. As of March 31, 2020, Select’s leverage ratio (its ratio of total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters), which is required to be maintained at less than 7.00 to 1.00 under the terms of the Select revolving facility, was 4.76 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2020, we do not anticipate events or circumstances which would preclude us from complying with our financial covenants in the future or prevent us from making interest and principal payments when due. Select is not required to make further principal payments on the Select term loan until September 30, 2023 and its senior notes are due August 15, 2026. Concentra is not required to make further principal payments on its intercompany term loan with Select until its maturity on June 1, 2022. The Select and Concentra-JPM revolving credit facilities mature on March 6, 2024 and March 1, 2022, respectively. Our ability to comply with our financial covenants and obligations outlined within our debt agreements can be affected by various risks and uncertainties. Please refer to our risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Form 10-Q and as previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for further discussion.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, may be funded from operating cash flows or other sources and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Use of Capital Resources.  We may from time to time pursue opportunities to develop new joint venture relationships with significant health systems and other healthcare providers, and from time to time we may also develop new inpatient rehabilitation hospitals and occupational medicine centers.providers. We also intend to open new outpatient rehabilitation clinics and occupational health centers in local areas that we currently serve where we can benefit from existing referral relationships and brand awareness to produce incremental growth. In addition to our development activities, we may grow through opportunistic acquisitions such as the pending acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance

Refer to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 states that if substantially allNote 2 – Accounting Policies of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the transaction should be accounted for as an asset acquisition. In addition, the ASU clarifies the requirements for a set of activitiesnotes to be considered a business and narrows the definition of an output. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. ASU 2017-01 will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The ASU requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company plans to adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2018. Adoption of the guidance will be applied on a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact it will have on itsour condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This ASU includes a lesseestatements included herein for information regarding recent accounting model that recognizes two types of leases; finance and operating. This ASU requires that a lessee recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms of more than twelve months. Lessees will need to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained the dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. For short-term leases of twelve months or less, lessees are permitted to make an accounting election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. If the alternative is elected, lease expense would be recognized generally on the straight-line basis over the respective lease term.

The amendments in ASU 2016-02 will take effect for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. A modified retrospective approach is required for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements.

Upon adoption, the Company will recognize significant assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as a result of the operating lease obligations of the Company. Operating lease expense will still be recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company will implement the new standard beginning January 1, 2019. The Company’s implementation efforts are focused on designing accounting processes, disclosure processes, and internal controls in order to account for its leases under the new standard.

In May 2014, March 2016, April 2016, and December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Principal versus Agent Considerations, ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, and ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (collectively “the standards”), respectively, which supersede most of the current revenue recognition requirements. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. New disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers are also required. The standards require the selection of a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method.

The Company will implement the new standard beginning January 1, 2018 using the retrospective transition method.  Adoption of the new standard will result in material changes to the presentation of net operating revenues and bad debt expense in the consolidated statements of operations, but the presentation of the amount of income from operations and net income is not expected to materially change upon adoption of the new standards. The principal change is how the new standard requires healthcare providers to estimate the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price up to an amount which is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The most common form of variable consideration the Company experiences are amounts for services provided that are ultimately not realizable from a customer. Under the current standards, the Company’s estimate for unrealizable amounts was recorded to bad debt expense. Under the new standards, the Company’s estimate for unrealizable amounts will be recognized as a constraint to revenue and will be reflected as an allowance. Substantially all of the bad debt expense as of September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2017 will be reclassified as an allowance when the Company retrospectively applies the guidance in the standards on January 1, 2018.

The Company’s remaining implementation efforts are focused principally on refining the accounting processes, disclosure processes, and internal controls.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which changed the presentation of deferred income taxes. The standard changed the presentation of deferred income taxes through the requirement that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2017. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been retrospectively adjusted. Adoption of the new standard impacted the Company’s previously reported results as follows:

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our variable rate long-term indebtedness. Our principal interest rate exposure relates to the loans outstanding under the Select credit facilities and Concentra credit facilities.

As of September 30, 2017,Concentra-JPM revolving facility.

At March 31, 2020, Select had a $1,144.3outstanding borrowings under the Select credit facilities consisting of the $2,103.4 million Select term loan outstanding (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $26.0$20.7 million) and $320.0borrowings of $165.0 million in revolving borrowings outstanding(excluding letters of credit) under the Select credit facilities,revolving facility, which bear interest at variable rates.

As of September 30, 2017,

At March 31, 2020, Concentra had $619.2 million of first lien term loans outstanding (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $13.7 million) under the Concentra credit facilities, which bear interest at variable rates. ConcentraInc. did not have any outstandingborrowings under the Concentra-JPM revolving borrowings at September 30, 2017.

At September 30, 2017, the 3-month LIBOR rate was 1.33%. Consequently,facility.

As of March 31, 2020, each 0.25% increase in market interest rates will impact the interest expense on Select’s and Concentra’sour variable rate debt by $5.2$5.7 million per annum.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based on this evaluation, as of March 31, 2020, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including the accumulation and communication of disclosure to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure, are effective as of September 30, 2017 to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the relevant SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the thirdfirst quarter ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.


PART IIII: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, CMS, or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.

To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance subjectcoverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programs that are designed to respond to the risks of $2.0the specific joint venture. The annual aggregate limit under these programs ranges from $6.0 million per medical incident for professional liability claimsto $20.0 million. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and $2.0 million per occurrence for general liability claims.may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.

Evansville Litigation

On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff-relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital—Evansville, LLC (“SSH-Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff-relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff-relators are the former CEO and two former case managers at SSH-Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH-Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH-Evansville. The plaintiff-relators allege that SSH-Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up-coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long-term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.

In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff-relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff-relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non-retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However,

the District Court ruled that the plaintiff-relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present, which the defendants have opposed. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Knoxville Litigation

On July 13, 2015, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee unsealed a qui tam Complaint in Armes v. Garman, et al, No. 3:14-cv-00172-TAV-CCS, which named as defendants Select, Select Specialty Hospital—Knoxville, Inc. (“SSH-Knoxville”), Select Specialty Hospital—North Knoxville, Inc. and ten current or former employees of these facilities. The Complaint was unsealed after the United States and the State of Tennessee notified the court on July 13, 2015 that each had decided not to intervene in the case. The Complaint is a civil action that was filed under seal on April 29, 2014 by a respiratory therapist formerly employed at SSH-Knoxville. The Complaint alleges violations of the federal False Claims Act and the Tennessee Medicaid False Claims Act based on extending patient stays to increase reimbursement and to increase average length of stay; artificially prolonging the lives of patients to increase Medicare reimbursements and decrease inspections; admitting patients who do not require medically necessary care; performing unnecessary procedures and services; and delaying performance of procedures to increase billing. The Complaint was served on some of the defendants during October 2015.

In November 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint on multiple grounds. The defendants first argued that False Claims Act’s first-to-file bar required dismissal of plaintiff-relator’s claims. Under the first-to-file bar, if a qui tam case is pending, no person may bring a related action based on the facts underlying the first action. The defendants asserted that the plaintiff-relator’s claims were based on the same underlying facts as were asserted in the Evansville litigation, discussed above. The defendants also argued that the plaintiff-relator’s claims must be dismissed under the public disclosure bar, and because the plaintiff-relator did not plead his claims with sufficient particularity.

In June 2016, the District Court granted the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and dismissed with prejudice the plaintiff-relator’s lawsuit in its entirety. The District Court ruled that the first-to-file bar precludes all but one of the plaintiff-relator’s claims, and that the remaining claim must also be dismissed because the plaintiff-relator failed to plead it with sufficient particularity. In July 2016, the plaintiff-relator filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Then, on October 11, 2016, the plaintiff-relator filed a Motion to Remand the case to the District Court for further proceedings, arguing that the September 30, 2016 decision in the Evansville litigation, discussed above, undermines the basis for the District Court’s dismissal. After the Court of Appeals denied the Motion to Remand, the plaintiff-relator then sought an indicative ruling from the District Court that it would vacate its prior dismissal ruling and allow plaintiff-relator to supplement his Complaint, which the defendants have opposed. The case has been fully briefed and argued in the Court of Appeals. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Wilmington Litigation

Litigation.On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital—Wilmington,Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH-Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16-347-LPS.16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal onin May 12, 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH-WilmingtonSSH‑Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention onin January 13, 2017. The corporate defendants were served onin March 6, 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff-relatorplaintiff‑relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH-Wilmington,SSH‑Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH-Wilmington.SSH‑Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, onin May 17, 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint which is now pending, based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim.

On In March 24,2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.





In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH-Wilmington,SSH‑Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  The motion is currently pending.

In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.

The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Contract Therapy Subpoena

Subpoena.On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producinghas produced documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Northern District of Alabama Investigation

On October 30, 2017, the Company was contacted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Alabama to request cooperation in connection with an investigation that may involve Medicare billing compliance at certain of the Company’s Physiotherapy outpatient rehabilitation clinics.  The Company intends to cooperate with this investigation.  At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

The informationrisk factors set forth in this report update, and should be read in conjunctiontogether with, the risk factors set forth below and the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

2019.

Risks Related to Our Business
The closingunpredictable effects of the acquisitionCOVID-19 pandemic, including the duration and extent of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra is subjectdisruption on our operations, creates significant uncertainties about our future operating results and financial condition.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic disrupts our business and results of operations, financial position, and cash flows will depend on a number of evolving factors and future developments that we are not able to predict, including, but not limited to, the satisfaction of certain conditions, and we cannot predict whether the necessary conditions will be satisfied or waived.

The closingduration of the acquisitionoutbreak; further actions by governmental authorities and the private sector to limit the spread of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra is subjectCOVID-19; continued encouragement to regulatory approvalssocial distance; and customary conditions,the economic impact on our patients and the communities we serve as a result of containment efforts. The adverse impacts of COVID-19 on our business may also exacerbate other risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Our hospitals may experience declines in their occupancy in future months in order protect both our patients and staff members and to prevent the spread of COVID-19 within our hospitals. Our critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals may experience constrained staffing levels and increased operating costs resulting from increased usage of contract clinical labor due to the overwhelming need for healthcare professionals during the pandemic. Our hospitals may also experience increased operating costs resulting from shortages of medical supplies, including without limitation:

·                  the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended;

·                  the accuracy of the representationspersonal protective equipment, and warranties in the Purchase Agreement and compliance with the respective covenants of the parties, subject to certain qualifiers;

·                  the absence of any law or injunction that prohibits the consummation of the acquisition;

·                  the absence of certain governmental actions; and

·                  the absence of a material adverse effect on U.S. HealthWorks or Concentra.

The acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks may not close in the anticipated time frame, if at all.  The Company has no control over certain conditions in the Purchase Agreement, and cannot predict whether such conditions will be satisfied or waived.

The acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra and future acquisitions may use significant resources, may be unsuccessful and could expose us to unforeseen liabilities.

As part ofsupply chain disruptions.

In our growth strategy, we may pursue acquisitions of specialty hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation clinics and Concentra centers, we may continue to experience declines in demand for our services as a result of actions taken by governmental authorities, which in some instances has led to the closure of non-essential and non-life sustaining businesses, as well as mandated social distancing measures. Our outpatient rehabilitation clinics have already experienced a reduction in patient volume due to hospitals and other related healthcarefacilities temporarily suspending elective surgeries which typically would result in a patient seeking outpatient services, a decline in patient referrals from physicians, and a reduction in workers’ compensation injury visits due to the temporary closure of businesses, as mentioned above. Our Concentra centers have also experienced a reduction in workers’ compensation and employer services visits due to furloughed workforces and temporarily ceased and reduced operations. As a result of reduced demand in some of our markets, we have adopted a strategy to temporarily consolidate the operations of certain clinics and centers which operate within close proximity to one another.

Our future results of operations and financial condition depend upon, among other things, the operating costs we face and the demand for our services. To the extent that we face increased operating costs and declines in demand for our services as a result of the adverse impacts of COVID-19, our ability to comply with financial covenants and obligations under the Select credit facilities, the Concentra-JPM credit facilities and services. These acquisitions, including the acquisitionindenture governing our senior notes in future periods, as well as our ability to pay amounts due to WCAS and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent or DHHC in connection with their Put Right (as defined below), if exercised, may be adversely affected. Risks related to our capital structure are described further herein and within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Adverse economic conditions in the U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra, may involve significant cash expenditures, debt incurrence, additional operating lossesor globally could adversely affect us.
We are subject to the risks arising from adverse conditions in the general economy. A U.S. or global recession or prolonged economic downturn could negatively impact our current and prospective patients, adversely affect the financial ability of health insurers to pay claims, adversely impact our ability to pay our expenses, and compliance riskslimit our ability to obtain financing for our operations. Healthcare spending in the U.S. could be negatively affected in the event of a downturn in economic conditions. For example, U.S. patients who have lost their jobs or healthcare coverage may no longer be covered by an employer-sponsored health insurance plan, and patients reducing their overall spending may elect to decrease the frequency of visits to our facilities or forgo elective treatments or procedures, thereby reducing demand for our services.
We could experience significant increases to our operating costs due to shortages of healthcare professionals or union activity.
Our critical illness recovery hospitals and our rehabilitation hospitals are highly dependent on nurses, our outpatient rehabilitation division is highly dependent on therapists for patient care, and Concentra is highly dependent upon the ability of its affiliated professional groups to recruit and retain qualified physicians and other licensed providers. The market for qualified healthcare professionals is highly competitive. We have sometimes experienced difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified healthcare personnel. We cannot assure you we will be able to attract and retain qualified healthcare professionals in the future. Additionally, the cost of attracting and retaining qualified healthcare personnel may be higher than we anticipate, and as a result, our profitability could decline. Furthermore, as a result of the heightened risk of infection related to the COVID-19 outbreak, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified healthcare personnel and may face staffing challenges resulting from infections among our personnel, which may result in an increase in labor and other costs.
In addition, United States healthcare providers are continuing to see an increase in the amount of union activity. Though we cannot predict the degree to which we will be affected by future union activity, there may be continuing legislative proposals that could result in increased union activity. We could experience an increase in labor and other costs from such union activity.
If the frequency of workplace injuries and illnesses continues to decline, Concentra’s results may be negatively affected.
Approximately 58% of Concentra’s revenue in 2019 was generated from the treatment of workers’ compensation claims. In the past decade, the number of workers’ compensation claims has decreased, which Concentra primarily attributes to improvements in workplace safety, improved risk management by employers, and changes in the type and composition of jobs. During the economic downturn between the years of 2007-2009, the number of employees with workers’ compensation insurance substantially decreased. A recession or prolonged economic contraction as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could similarly cause the number of covered employees to decline, which may cause further declines in workers’ compensation claims. In addition, because of the greater access to health insurance and the fact that the United States economy has continued to shift from a manufacturing-based to a service-based economy along with general improvements in workplace safety, workers are generally healthier and less prone to work injuries. Increases in employer-sponsored wellness and health promotion programs, spurred in part by the ACA, have led to fitter and healthier employees who may be less likely to injure themselves on the job. Concentra’s business model is based, in part, on its ability to expand its relative share of the market for the treatment of claims for workplace injuries and illnesses. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in a significant increase in unemployment in the United States, which may continue even after the pandemic. If workplace injuries and illnesses decline at a greater rate than the increase in total employment, or if total employment declines at a greater rate than the increase in incident rates, the number of claims in the workers’ compensation market will decrease and may adversely affect Concentra’s business.
If Concentra loses several significant employer customers or payor contracts, its results may be adversely affected.
Concentra’s results may decline if it loses several significant employer customers or payor contracts. One or more of Concentra’s significant employer customers could be acquired. Additionally, Concentra could lose significant employer customers or payor contracts due to competitive pricing pressures or other reasons. Our Concentra centers have also experienced a reduction in employer services visits due to furloughed workforces and temporarily ceased and reduced operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. The loss of several significant employer customers or payor contracts could cause a material decline in Concentra’s profitability and operating performance.

Risks Related to Our Capital Structure
If WCAS and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent or DHHC exercise their Put Right, it may have an adverse effect on our liquidity. Additionally, we may not have adequate funds to pay amounts due in connection with the Put Right, if exercised, in which case we would be required to issue Holdings’ common stock to purchase interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent and our stockholders’ ownership interest will be diluted.
Pursuant to the Concentra LLC Agreement, WCAS and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent and DHHC have separate put rights (each, a “Put Right”) with respect to their equity interests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent. If a Put Right is exercised by WCAS or DHHC, Select will be obligated to purchase up to 33 1/3% of the equity interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent that WCAS or DHHC, respectively, owned as of February 1, 2018, at a purchase price based on a valuation of Concentra Group Holdings Parent performed by an investment bank to be agreed between Select and one of WCAS or DHHC, which valuation will be based on certain precedent transactions using multiples of EBITDA (as defined in the Concentra LLC Agreement) and capped at an agreed upon multiple of EBITDA. Select has the right to elect to pay the purchase price in cash or in shares of Holdings’ common stock.
On January 1, 2020, Select, WCAS and DHHC agreed to a transaction in lieu of, and deemed to constitute, the exercise of WCAS’ and DHHC’s first Put Right (the “January Interest Purchase”), pursuant to which Select acquired an aggregate amount of approximately 17.2% of the outstanding membership interests, on a fully diluted basis, of Concentra Group Holdings Parent from WCAS, DHHC and the other equity holders of Concentra Group Holdings Parent, in exchange for an aggregate payment of approximately $338.4 million. On February 1, 2020, Select, WCAS and DHHC agreed to a transaction pursuant to which Select acquired an additional amount of approximately 1.4% of the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis from WCAS, DHHC, and other equity holders of Concentra Group Holdings Parent for approximately $27.8 million (the “February Interest Purchase”). The February Interest Purchase was deemed to constitute an additional exercise of WCAS’ and DHHC’s first Put Right. Upon consummation of the January Interest Purchase and the February Interest Purchase, Select owns in the aggregate approximately 66.6% of the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis and approximately 68.8% of the outstanding voting membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent.
WCAS and DHHC may exercise their remaining respective Put Rights to sell up to an additional 33 1/3% of the equity interests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent that each, respectively, owned as of February 1, 2018, on an annual basis beginning in 2021 during the sixty-day period following the delivery of the audited financial conditionstatements for the immediately preceding fiscal year. If WCAS exercises future Put Rights, the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent, other than DHHC, may elect to sell to Select, on the same terms as WCAS, a percentage of their equity interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent that such member owned as of the date of the Amended and Restated LLC Agreement, up to but not exceeding the percentage of equity interests owned by WCAS as of the date of the Amended and Restated LLC Agreement that WCAS has determined to sell to Select in the exercise of its Put Right.
Furthermore, WCAS, DHHC, and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent have a put right with respect to their equity interest in Concentra Group Holdings Parent that may only be exercised in the event Holdings or Select experiences a change of control that has not been previously approved by WCAS and DHHC, and which results in change in the senior management of operations.

Select (an “SEM COC Put Right”). If an SEM COC Put Right is exercised by WCAS, Select will be obligated to purchase all (but not less than all) of the equity interests of WCAS and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent (other than DHHC) offered by such members at a purchase price based on a valuation of Concentra Group Holdings Parent performed by an investment bank to be agreed between Select and one of WCAS or DHHC, which valuation will be based on certain precedent transactions using multiples of EBITDA and capped at an agreed upon multiple of EBITDA. Similarly, if an SEM COC Put Right is exercised by DHHC, Select will be obligated to purchase all (but not less than all) of the equity interests of DHHC at a purchase price based on a valuation of Concentra Group Holdings Parent performed by an investment bank to be agreed between Select and one of WCAS or DHHC, which valuation will be based on certain precedent transactions using multiples of EBITDA and capped at an agreed upon multiple of EBITDA.


We may not be able to successfully integrate U.S. HealthWorkshave sufficient funds, borrowing capacity, or other acquired businesses into ours,capital resources available to pay for the interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent in cash if WCAS, DHHC, and thereforethe other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent exercise the Put Right or the SEM COC Put Right, or may be prohibited from doing so under the terms of our debt agreements. To the extent that we face increased operating costs and declines in demand for our services as a result of the adverse impacts of COVID-19, our ability to pay amounts due to WCAS and the other members of Concentra Group Holdings Parent or DHHC in connection with their Put Right, if exercised, may be affected. Such lack of available funds upon the exercising of the Put Right or the SEM COC Put Right would force us to issue stock at a time we might not otherwise desire to do so in order to purchase the interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent. To the extent that the interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent are purchased by issuing shares of our common stock, the increase in the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding may depress the price of our common stock and our stockholders will experience dilution in their respective percentage ownership in us. In addition, shares issued to purchase the interests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent will be valued at the twenty-one trading day volume-weighted average sales price of such shares for the period beginning ten trading days immediately preceding the first public announcement of the Put Right or the SEM COC Put Right being exercised and ending ten trading days immediately following such announcement. Because the value of the common stock issued to purchase the interests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent is, in part, determined by the sales price of our common stock following the announcement that the Put Right or the SEM COC Put Right is being exercised, which may cause the sales price of our common stock to decline, the amount of common stock we may not be ablehave to realizeissue to purchase the intended benefits from an acquisition. If we failinterests in Concentra Group Holdings Parent may increase, resulting in further dilution to successfully integrate U.S. HealthWorks or other acquisitions, our financial condition and resultsexisting stockholders.
Effects of operationsthe COVID-19 pandemic may be materially adversely affected. The acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra and other acquisitions could result in difficulties integrating acquired operations, technologies and personnel into our business. Such difficulties may divert significant financial, operational and managerial resources from our existing operations and make it more difficult to achieve our operating and strategic objectives. We may fail to retain employees or patients acquired through the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra or other acquisitions, which may negatively impact the integration efforts. The acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra or other acquisitions could also have a negative impact on our results of operations if it is subsequently determined that goodwill or other acquired intangible assets are impaired, thus resulting in an impairment charge in a future period.

In addition, the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra and other acquisitions involve risks that the acquired businesses will not perform in accordance with expectations; that we may become liable for unforeseen financial or business liabilities of the acquired businesses, including liabilities for failure to comply with healthcare regulations; that the expected synergies associated with acquisitions will not be achieved; and that business judgments concerningfinancial covenant under the value, strengths and weaknessesSelect revolving facility.

The Select revolving facility requires Select to maintain a leverage ratio (based upon the ratio of businesses acquired will prove incorrect, which could have an material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our substantial indebtedness may limit the amount of cash flow available to investconsolidated EBITDA as defined in the ongoing needsSelect credit facilities), which is tested quarterly. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may result in increased operating costs and reduced demand for our business.

services, and to the extent such events were to occur, such events may result in our failure to comply with this covenant, which would result in an event of default under the Select revolving facility and, absent a waiver or an amendment from the revolving lenders, preclude Select from making further borrowings under the Select revolving facility and permit the revolving lenders to terminate their commitments and accelerate all outstanding revolving borrowings under the Select revolving facility. If the revolving lenders terminate their commitments and accelerate the revolving loans, a cross-default to the Select term loan would then occur. Such events may require us to pursue alternative financing. We have a substantial amountno assurance that any such alternative financing, if required, could be obtained on terms acceptable to us, or at all, particularly given the disruption of indebtedness. As of September 30, 2017, Select had approximately $2,177.3 million of total indebtedness, and Concentra had approximately $613.0 million of total indebtedness, which is nonrecourseglobal financial markets due to Select. As of September 30, 2017, our total indebtedness was $2,790.3 million.  In connection with the closing of the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks, Concentra’s indebtedness is expected to substantially increase with the addition of a proposed $555.0 million senior secured incremental term facility under its existing credit facility and a proposed $240.0 million second lien term facility. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For example, it:

·                  requires us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, development activity, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes;

·                  increases our vulnerability to adverse general economic or industry conditions;

·                  limits our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business or the industries in which we operate;

·                  makes us more vulnerable to increases in interest rates, as borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities are at variable rates;

·                  limits our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital or other purposes; and

·                  places us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less indebtedness.

Any of these consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, and ability to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness. In addition, there would be a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows if we were unable to service our indebtedness or obtain additional financing, as needed.
