“The principal story of our second quarter is one of improved operating earnings performance in our two mature divisions,” said John H. Short, Ph.D., RehabCare President and Chief Executive Officer. “In addition to the third consecutive quarter of increased revenue, the Contract Therapy (CT) division experienced a 1.0 percentage point gain in operating earnings margin, when excluding the positive effect of a non-compete settlement. And, equally significant, the CT division achieved a net gain of 15 operating units, the first net gain in the two years since we acquired Symphony.
“Our combined business development and client retention strategies are translating into greater stability in our Hospital Rehabilitation Services (HRS) division, where our unit count increased in the second quarter, after three years of decline. A healthy pipeline of new contracts should lead to a modest increase in units over the course of 2008. The HRS division also realized an operating earnings margin of 13.2%, a 1.7 percentage point improvement over first quarter and solidly within our expected range of 12 to 15% for the year.”
Dr. Short continued, “In our Hospital division, operating earnings were again negatively impacted due to continued planned investment in infrastructure development, expected start-up losses for our new long-term acute care hospital (LTACH) in Kansas City, Missouri, and a $1.5 million sequential decline in same store revenue. We also completed our joint venture with Floyd Healthcare Resources to acquire 80% ownership of their 24-bed LTACH in Rome, Georgia. Another of our investments was the appointment in July of Kevin Gross to oversee our Hospital division. We’re enthusiastic about the impact that Kevin’s experience will have on this division.”
Financial Overview of Second Quarter
Operating revenues for the second quarter of 2008 were $185.5 million compared to $184.1 million in the first quarter of 2008, an increase of $1.4 million, or 0.8%.
Consolidated net earnings were $4.5 million and earnings per share on a fully diluted basis were $0.25 in both the first and second quarters.
The Contract Therapy division’s operating revenues for the second quarter of 2008 increased 1.9% to $106.3 million, compared to $104.3 million in the first quarter of 2008. Same store revenue grew by 2.0% and the average number of locations operated in the current quarter increased by 0.6%. The number of locations increased from 1,038 to 1,053 during the quarter. The Company signed contracts for 46 new client locations in the second quarter and anticipates modest net increases in the number of locations for the remainder of 2008.
REHABCARE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2008 RESULTS Page 3
The division’s operating earnings were $5.6 million, or 5.3% of revenue, compared to $3.8 million, or 3.7% of revenue, in the first quarter of 2008. The increase includes higher revenues and margins, lower bad debt and health insurance expenses and a $0.6 million favorable non-compete settlement, net of related legal costs. When excluding the positive impact of the settlement, the CT division’s operating earnings margin increased 1.0 percentage point sequentially to 4.7%. The Hospital Rehabilitation Services division’s second quarter operating revenues remained unchanged at $40.2 million compared to the first quarter of 2008. At June 30, 2008, HRS operated 154 programs compared to 153 programs at March 31, 2008. The increase was a subacute unit; the number of inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) and outpatient units remained steady. The division had three IRF signings in the second quarter and two openings. At June 30, 2008, the pipeline of signed but unopened IRF contracts stood at six, four of which are expected to open in 2008.
Sequentially, inpatient operating revenues improved 0.4%. Same store acute discharges decreased 0.7%, primarily due to lower census in host hospitals, 40% of the Company’s units ending their 60% qualifying periods and a shortage of nurses in certain client hospitals. During the second quarter, 65.9% of admissions were qualifying patients compared to 63.2% in the first quarter. Outpatient operating revenues declined 0.7% sequentially.
Operating earnings increased by $0.7 million to $5.3 million, or 13.2% of revenue, in the second quarter of 2008 compared to $4.6 million, or 11.5% of revenue, in the first quarter of 2008. The increase includes lower bad debt and health insurance expenses recognized in the second quarter.
Net revenues in the Hospital division for the second quarter of 2008 decreased 1.4% to $28.8 million, compared to $29.2 million in the previous quarter. The division operated a total of eleven hospitals at June 30, 2008, six of which were rehabilitation hospitals and five long-term acute care hospitals. Sequentially, same store revenue decreased $1.5 million, or 5.1% on lower average daily census. This decline was partially offset by an increase in revenue related to the acquisition of The Specialty Hospital in Rome, Georgia effective June 1, 2008, and a full quarter of operations following ramp-up for Central Texas Rehabilitation Hospital in Austin, Texas. There were no ramp-up or start up losses for the Rome facility.
The hospital segment also opened Northland LTAC Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri in April 2008. Northland is currently in its length-of-stay demonstration period which means it will be reimbursed at Medicare’s lower inpatient prospective payment system rates for the six months ending early November 2008.

The division managed its rehab hospitals to an average 60% Rule compliance level of 58.5% at the end of the quarter.
The division incurred an operating loss of $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2008 compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million in the previous quarter. The $3.4 million sequential decline in earnings primarily resulted from a combination of $1.5 million lower same store revenue which resulted in $1.2 million lower earnings in mature hospitals, $0.8 million higher start-up and ramp-up losses, a $0.4 million increase in bad debt expense and an increase of $0.6 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, reflecting the continued investment in back office infrastructure to support the expected growth in the division in 2008 and 2009. The Company expects same store revenue to return to first quarter levels by the fourth quarter.
Balance Sheet
At June 30, 2008, the Company had approximately $14.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $71.0 million in outstanding debt. Days sales outstanding increased sequentially from 69.4 days at March 31, 2008 to 69.6 days at June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company generated cash from operations of $18.6 million and expended approximately $7.5 million for capital expenditures, including $5.7 million in the Company’s Hospital division, primarily on developing joint ventures. The remaining $1.8 million of capital expenditures was principally related to information systems. In addition to the $5.7 million in Hospital division capital expenditures, the Company invested $7.0 million, net of cash acquired, for an 80% interest in The Specialty Hospital in Rome, Georgia.
Legislative Update
On July 15, 2008, Congress successfully overrode a Presidential veto to secure passage of HR 6331, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008. The law provides an extension of both the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule increase of 0.5% and the Medicare Part B Therapy Caps exceptions process through December 31, 2009.
Final rules for IRFs and skilled nursing facilities for 2009 are expected soon from CMS. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact on its HRS or Hospital businesses, but is less certain about the effect on its CT division.
REHABCARE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2008 RESULTS Page 5
Outlook
The Company will not be providing revenue and earnings per share guidance for 2008, but provides the following:
| The Company expects strong consolidated net earnings growth for full year 2008, but expects its quarterly consolidated operating earnings to be uneven with all quarters impacted by hospital start-up/ramp-up losses. |
· | During July, the Contract Therapy division was negatively impacted by the legislative delay of the extension of the therapy caps exceptions process. This will likely result in a sequential decline in the third quarter’s operating earnings margin from the second quarter performance of 4.7%, net of the non-compete settlement. However, the division continues to expect a modest net increase in the number of units and a return to operating earnings margins of 4.5 to 5.5% during the fourth quarter, driven by same store revenue growth and improved operating efficiencies. |
· | The Hospital Rehabilitation Services division expects to experience a modest increase in units during 2008 and to maintain operating earnings margins of 12 to 15%. Same store discharges are expected to increase 3 to 5% year-over-year as the division returns to a more stable operating environment following the freeze of the 75% Rule at a 60% threshold. |
· | The Hospital division expects EBITDA to be negatively impacted by start-up and ramp-up losses associated with its majority-owned joint venture hospitals planned for 2008 and 2009. Hospitals under development or in operation for less than one year are expected to generate an EBITDA drag of $1.4 to $1.9 million during the second half of 2008. The impact of this drag on earnings per share will be partially offset by the respective minority partners’ shares of these costs. The eight hospitals that have been in operation for more than one year are expected to return to 13 to 15% EBITDA margins before corporate overhead in the fourth quarter of 2008. |
· | The Company expects capital expenditures in the second half of 2008 of approximately $13.5 million, of which $9.5 million relates to hospital strategic and maintenance capital and $4 million relates principally to information systems investments. The Company is expecting to receive approximately $1.7 million from minority partners to fund their respective shares of each joint venture hospital’s capital expenditure and working capital requirements. |
· | The Company expects its effective tax rate to approximate 39% for 2008. |
Conclusion
Dr. Short concluded, “While the margin pressure from the therapy caps has been lifted for at least another 18 months, the disruption caused in the first two weeks of July will likely impede CT operating performance in the third quarter. Couple a reprieve from therapy caps with the traction of our initiatives over the past two years, and the division is in a good position to return to our targeted range of 4.5 to 5.5% operating earnings margin in the fourth quarter.
“The HRS division is operating soundly within the range of 12 to 15% operating earnings margin, and we continue to believe we will realize our 3 to 5% same store discharge increase over last year.
“We continuously work to strengthen our Hospital division and are excited to welcome Kevin Gross, and his 25 years experience in hospital management, to lead our efforts. I remain confident this division holds much promise.
“I’m pleased with our overall progress in a struggling economy, and I thank our colleagues for their hard work and dedication to our mission of helping people regain their lives.”
