Triad Reports First Quarter Results
PLANO, TX (April 25, 2005) – Triad Hospitals, Inc. (the “Company” or “Triad”) (NYSE: TRI) announced consolidated financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2005. For the three months, the Company reported revenues of $1.2 billion; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other items (“adjusted EBITDA”) of $191.5 million; income from continuing operations of $65.2 million; net income of $66.2 million; diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations of $0.82; and diluted EPS of $0.83.
On a same-facility basis compared to the prior year three-month period, inpatient admissions increased 2.5%, adjusted admissions increased 2.1%, and inpatient surgeries decreased 0.2%. Patient revenue per adjusted admission increased 5.7%, patient revenues increased 7.9%, and revenues increased 7.9%. Same-facility results included facilities owned for the full first quarter of both years, including six hospitals that were acquired in December 2003. Revenue growth rates reflected the impact of the Company’s self-pay discount policy implemented October 2004, which was discussed in the Company’s fourth quarter earnings release; without the self-pay discounts (which reduced net revenue relative to what it would have been without the discounts), the Company estimates that patient revenue per adjusted admission would have increased 7.6%, patient revenues would have increased 9.9%, and revenues would have increased 9.8%.
For the three months, the Company reported a provision for doubtful accounts of $113.0 million, or 9.3% of revenue. Without the self-pay discounts (which reduced both provision for doubtful accounts as a percent of net revenue and net revenue relative to what they would have been without the discounts), the Company estimates that the provision for doubtful accounts would have been 10.8% of revenue. The Company continued to include in the allowance for doubtful accounts on its balance sheet approximately $15 million beyond what the Company’s historical experience would require, in order to reflect the potential for further deterioration in the collectibility of receivables from uninsured patients.
For the three months, cash flow from operating activities was $126.4 million, or $136.3 million excluding cash interest payments of $6.9 million and cash tax payments of $3.0 million. Cash flow from operations was impacted by two annually recurring uses of cash: a retirement plan contribution of $26 million and incentive compensation payments of $24 million (both for expenses accrued in 2004). The Company spent $100.3 million on capital expenditures, largely for expansion and construction of new facilities, and paid debt principal of $20.9 million.
On April 1, 2005, the Company acquired an 80% interest in Deaconess Hospital, a 313-bed facility in Oklahoma City, for $119 million (including $16 million of working capital), and on April 9, the Company opened its newest hospital, Presbyterian Hospital of Denton, a venture with Texas Health Resources that is 80% owned by Triad. On April 8, the Company acquired for $27.5 million HCA’s 28.5% interest in Vicksburg Health System, a venture majority-owned and managed by Triad in Vicksburg, MS; the Company now owns 99.5% of the facility.
At March 31, cash and cash equivalents were $125.4 million, and the Company had $378 million available under its $400 million revolving credit facility, which was reduced by $22 million of outstanding letters of credit. The Company funded the Deaconess and Vicksburg transactions with cash on hand. As of April 22, the Company had approximately $20 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility, excluding the $22 million of letters of credit. Long-term debt outstanding was $1.6 billion, and stockholders’ equity totaled $2.5 billion.
The Company updated its guidance for 2005 diluted EPS from continuing operations to approximately $2.73-2.83 from approximately $2.69-2.79. This guidance continues to incorporate an expected provision for doubtful accounts of approximately 9.0-9.5% of revenue in 2005. This range reflects the expected impact of the Company’s self-pay discount policy, including an additional component that was implemented April 1, which is expected to reduce both revenue and the provision as a percent of net revenue in 2005 relative to what they would have been without the discounts.
Without the self-pay discount policy, the Company would have expected the provision for doubtful accounts to be approximately 10.2-10.7% of revenue in 2005. Triad believes that the provision will likely fluctuate from quarter to quarter during 2005, even possibly outside of this range. Triad also believes that the annual range itself will be subject to change, possibly positive or negative, based on evolving business conditions and the effectiveness of Company actions in response, and this may impact 2005 EPS. The Company’s current EPS guidance excludes any impact from reversing any or all of the $15 million that it continues to include in the allowance for doubtful accounts on its balance sheet.
Beyond 2005, Triad expects to achieve annual EPS growth in at least the mid-teens percent range (excluding the impact of expensing stock options, which the Company expects to commence January 1, 2006, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123(R)). The Company also expects to achieve further gradual improvement over time, with occasional fluctuation, in its overall return on invested capital.
Triad will conduct a conference call at 9:00 am Eastern Time (8:00 am Central Time) tomorrow, Tuesday, April 26, to discuss these results. To listen to the call, please call 800-810-0924, confirmation code 9081234. This conference call will be simulcast on the Internet via the Triad website atwww.triadhospitals.com. A recorded replay of the call will be available for 14 days at (719) 457-0820 or (888) 203-1112, confirmation code 9081234.
Triad, through its affiliates, owns and manages hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers in small cities and selected larger urban markets. The Company currently operates 53 hospitals and 16 ambulatory surgery centers in 15 states with approximately 8,690 licensed beds. In addition, through its QHR subsidiary, the Company provides hospital management, consulting and advisory services to more than 200 independent community hospitals and health systems throughout the United States.

(1) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, ESOP expense, (gain) loss on sales of assets, minority interests, and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used by lenders and investors to assess leverage capacity, debt service ability and liquidity. Many of Triad’s debt covenants use adjusted EBITDA, or a modification of adjusted EBITDA, in financial covenant calculations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate financial performance and resource allocation for each facility and for Triad as a whole. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, and 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 net income, cash flows generated by operating, investing, or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Because adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. |
