SURGERY PARTNERS, INC. ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2017 RESULTS
Transaction with National Surgical Healthcare Progressing as Planned with Third Quarter Close Date
NASHVILLE, Tenn., August 8, 2017 - Surgery Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:SGRY) ("Surgery Partners" or the "Company"), a leading provider of surgical services, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.
| |
• | Revenues decreased 0.5% compared to second quarter 2016 to $288.4 million |
| |
• | Same facility revenue increased 2.0% over second quarter 2016 to $296.5 million |
| |
• | Net loss attributable to Surgery Partners was $4.5 million, compared to net income of $2.1 million in the second quarter 2016 |
| |
• | Adjusted EBITDA was $37.1 million, compared to $46.0 million in the second quarter 2016 |
| |
• | Diluted EPS of $(0.09) per share compared to $0.04 per share in the second quarter 2016 |
“We believe that the shift to high quality, outpatient care remains a secular growth driver for Surgery Partners, and our model of partnering with physicians offers an attractive solution for patients and payors,” said Mike Doyle, Chief Executive Officer. “However, like many of our peers, Surgery Partners experienced slower than normal utilization and adverse payor mix during the second quarter of 2017.”
“While we were disappointed with our overall results for the quarter, we were able to continue our record of same facility revenue growth and expansion of higher acuity cases. Unfortunately, the broader industry trend of slower volumes and a shift to less favorable payors created challenges to achieving our financial goals this period. Our performance was hindered by three factors: the slowing of patient volumes, an adverse payor mix and slow improvement of our integrated physician practice acquisition. We believe we will see sequential improvement of these factors through the remainder of the year.”
“In addition, as discussed on previous calls, total revenue reflects the anticipated lapse of a break-even anesthesia contract to an unaffiliated provider. The contract was neutral to EBITDA, but dilutive to revenue by approximately $8.8 million in the second quarter.”
“We remain excited about the prospects for our business and are pleased that the previously announced acquisition of National Surgical Healthcare is progressing as planned. We have secured regulatory approval, finalized financing and expect to close on the transaction during the third quarter. As we continue to build out our network of services, I would like to thank our physicians and employees for their continued dedication to delivering high quality health care.”
As of June 30, 2017, the Company owned or operated 103 surgical facilities primarily in partnership with physicians and, on a select basis, physicians and health systems, in addition to a network of 59 physician practices.
Second Quarter 2017 Results
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2017 decreased 0.5% to $288.4 million from $289.7 million for the second quarter of 2016, which included approximately $8.8 million of revenue from the anesthesia contract. Excluding this contract from both periods, we would have achieved revenue growth of 2.7%. Same facility revenues for the second quarter of 2017 increased 2.0% to $296.5 million from $290.7 million in the same period last year. Same facility revenue per case increased 1.5% and same facility cases increased 0.4%.
For the second quarter of 2017, the Company’s net loss attributable to Surgery Partners was $4.5 million compared to net income of $2.1 million for the same period last year. For the second quarter of 2017, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA was $37.1 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $46.0 million for the same period last year.
Year to Date 2017 Results
Total revenues year to date 2017 increased 3.2% to $574.5 million from $556.8 million for the same period last year, which included approximately $17.8 million of revenue from the anesthesia contract. Excluding this contract from both periods, we would have achieved revenue growth of 6.6%. Same facility revenues for year to date 2017 increased 5.0% to $581.4 million
from $553.7 million in the same period last year. Results were driven by increased same facility revenue per case of 3.7% and same facility case growth of 1.3%.
For year to date 2017, the Company’s net loss attributable to Surgery Partners was $7.2 million compared to a net loss of $5.1 million for the same period last year. For year to date 2017, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA was $77.2 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $84.5 million for the same period last year.
Liquidity
Surgery Partners had cash and cash equivalents of $57.0 million at June 30, 2017 and availability of $55.9 million under its revolving credit facility. Net operating cash flow, including operating cash flow less distributions to non-controlling interests, was $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2017, which reflects approximately $35.0 million of cash interest payments which were not reflected in the prior quarter, along with $2.9 million of merger transaction and integration related costs. The Company’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA at the end of the second quarter of 2017, as calculated under the Company’s credit agreement, was 6.9x.
Full Year 2017 Guidance
For 2017, the Company is modifying the guidance provided on our conference call in March of this year to reflect the recent softness in healthcare utilization and payor mix shift experienced during the quarter. On a standalone basis, the Company now anticipates revenue in the range of $1.18 billion to $1.20 billion and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $174.0 million to $181.0 million for the full year 2017. Including the partial year impact of NSH, revenue would be in the range of $1.34 billion to $1.36 billion and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $199.0 million to $207.0 million. This new guidance does not incorporate any smaller, one-off acquisitions this year and assumes that we experience a return to higher demand in the second half of the year, but not to the extent that we forecast previously.

(4) The above table reconciles adjusted EBITDA by segment to net income as reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
When we use the term “Adjusted EBITDA,” it is referring to net income minus (a) net income attributable to non-controlling interests plus (b) depreciation and amortization, (c) interest expense, net, (d) income tax expense, (e) non-cash stock compensation expense, (f) contingent acquisition compensation expense, (g) merger transaction, integration and practice acquisition costs, (h) gain on litigation, (i) loss on disposal or impairment of long-lived assets and (j) loss on debt refinancing. Non-controlling interests represent the interests of third parties, such as physicians, and in some cases, healthcare systems that own an interest in surgical facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. Our operating strategy is to apply a market-based approach in structuring its partnerships with individual market dynamics driving the structure. We believe that it is helpful to investors to present Adjusted EBITDA as defined above because it excludes the portion of net income attributable to these third-party interests and clarifies for investors our portion of Adjusted EBITDA generated by our surgical facilities and other operations.
We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of liquidity. It is included because we believe that it provides investors with additional information about its ability to incur and service debt and make capital expenditures.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, or any other measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating financial performance and liquidity. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
(5) This amount includes merger transaction and integration costs of $2.9 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and practice acquisition costs of $1.2 million and $867,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
This amount includes merger transaction and integration costs of $3.2 million and $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and practice acquisition costs of $1.5 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
SURGERY PARTNERS, INC.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited, Amounts in thousands)
From time to time, the Company incurs certain non-recurring gains or losses that are normally nonoperational in nature and that it does not consider relevant in assessing its ongoing operating performance. When significant, Surgery Partners’ management and Board of Directors typically exclude these gains or losses when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and in certain instances when evaluating performance for incentive compensation purposes. Additionally, the Company believes that certain investors and equity analysts exclude these or similar items when evaluating the Company’s current or future operating performance and in making informed investment decisions regarding the Company. Accordingly, the Company provides adjusted net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders as a supplement to its comparable GAAP measure of net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. Adjusted net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from adjusted net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders as presented in the consolidated financial statements.
The following table reconciles net income as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations to adjusted net income used to calculate adjusted net income per share attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. stockholders:
