Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 12, 2019 The Pennant Group, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release reporting the financial results of the Company for its third quarter ended September 30, 2019. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1.
The press release includes “non-GAAP financial measures.” Specifically, the press release refers to Combined EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDAR, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Combined EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDAR, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. Regulation G, Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, and other provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, define and prescribe the conditions for use of certain non-GAAP financial information. Combined EBITDA consists of net income, adjusted for net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, before (a) interest expense, (b) provision for income taxes, and (c) depreciation and amortization. Combined Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income, adjusted for net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, before (a) interest expense, (b) provision for income taxes, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) costs incurred for operations currently in start-up phase, excluding depreciation, interest and income taxes, (e) share-based compensation expense, (f) acquisition-related costs, and (g) spin-off related transaction costs. Combined Adjusted EBITDAR consists of net income, adjusted for net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, before (a) interest expense, (b) provisions for income taxes, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) rent-cost of services, (e) costs incurred for facilities currently in start-up phase, excluding rent, depreciation, interest and income taxes, (f) share-based compensation expense, (g) acquisition-related costs and (h) spin-off related transaction costs. Segment Adjusted EBITDA consists of Segment Adjusted EBITDAR adjusted to include rent-cost of services. The company believes that the presentation of Combined EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDAR, Segment Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share provides important supplemental information to management and investors to evaluate the company’s operating performance. The company believes disclosure of adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, Combined EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDA, Combined Adjusted EBITDAR, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA has economic substance because the excluded revenues and expenses are infrequent in nature and are variable in nature, or do not represent current revenues or cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of these measures as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per share for other companies in the company's industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. For further information regarding why the company believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses this measure, and some of the limitations associated with the use of this measure, please refer to the company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The company’s periodic filings are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or under the "Financial Information" link of the Investor Relations section on Pennant’s website at http://www.pennantgroup.com.
