Tenet Healthcare Corporation (NYSE:THC) reported Adjusted EBITDA of $529 million for the first quarter of 2015, an increase of $142 million, or 37 percent, compared to $387 million in the first quarter of 2014.

“This was a very good quarter for Tenet, characterized by a continuation of the strong volume trends from the second half of 2014, exceptional results at Conifer, and EBITDA that exceeded our expectations,” said Trevor Fetter, president and chief executive officer. “We also made a number of important steps in the quarter to improve Tenet’s strategic position. We expect these actions to enable us to generate faster growth, improve margins and increase free cash flow. This includes our recently announced joint venture with United Surgical Partners International and Welsh Carson to form the nation’s largest network of ambulatory surgery centers and leading provider of ambulatory solutions to not-for-profit health systems.”

Discussion of Results (Percentage changes in operating metrics compare Q1’15 to Q1’14 on a same-hospital basis unless otherwise noted.)

Tenet generated same-hospital growth in admissions and adjusted admissions of 4.9 percent and 5.9 percent, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2014. Paying admissions increased an even stronger 6.2 percent, reflecting growth in the number of newly insured patients. Surgeries increased 7.1 percent and emergency department visits increased 7.2 percent. The company estimates that approximately two-thirds of its volume growth in the quarter is related to investments in service line development and targeted capital investment.

Tenet increased outpatient visits by 7.6 percent. Approximately 90 percent of this growth was organic. At the end of the quarter, Tenet operated 215 outpatient facilities, an increase of 26 facilities over the prior year; these metrics include 44 ambulatory surgery centers and 20 imaging centers that are being contributed into the joint venture with United Surgical Partners.

The company continues to benefit from declines in uninsured and charity volumes. In the six states that expanded Medicaid, same-hospital uninsured plus charity admissions declined by 1,593 admissions, or 49.8 percent, and Medicaid admissions increased by 2,645 admissions, or 9.6 percent. Uninsured plus charity outpatient visits decreased by 7,280 visits, or 13.2 percent, and Medicaid outpatient visits grew by 61,979 visits, or 19.5 percent. The six states are comprised of five states that expanded Medicaid in 2014, including Arizona, California, Illinois, Massachusetts and Michigan, and Pennsylvania, which expanded Medicaid in 2015.

Including non-expansion states, same-hospital uninsured plus charity admissions decreased by 1,743 admissions, or 13.9 percent, and Medicaid admissions increased by 4,180 admissions, or 8.0 percent. There was a decline in same-hospital charity and uninsured outpatient visits of 8,760 visits, or 5.3 percent, and an increase in Medicaid outpatient visits of 78,862 visits, or 15.8 percent.

Tenet’s same-hospital exchange volumes were 4,432 admissions and 35,737 outpatient visits in the first quarter. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2014, the company drove increases in exchange admissions and exchange outpatient visits of 17.6 percent and 11.2 percent, respectively.

Net operating revenues, after provision for doubtful accounts, grew by $502 million, or 12.8 percent, to $4.428 billion, compared to net operating revenues of $3.926 billion in the first quarter of 2014. The majority of the company’s revenue growth was driven by a 5.9 percent increase in same-hospital adjusted patient admissions, a 2.7 percent increase in same-hospital net patient revenue per adjusted patient admission, and a $37 million increase in revenue at Conifer from non-Tenet hospitals, representing a growth rate of 25.5 percent. The year-over-year comparison also benefitted from outpatient development activity, the acquisition of two hospitals and opening of one newly constructed hospital.

Selected operating expenses, defined as the sum of salaries, wages and benefits, supplies and other operating expenses, increased by 1.5 percent per adjusted admission in the quarter.

Tenet recorded $6 million in electronic health records incentives in the first quarter of 2015, a $3 million decrease compared to $9 million in the first quarter of 2014. Electronic health record incentive payments are recorded based on the timing of when the company’s hospitals achieve meaningful use criteria.

The company’s bad debt expense ratio was 7.6 percent of revenues before bad debt, a decrease of 120 basis points compared to 8.8 percent in the first quarter of 2014. This improvement reflects the growth in newly insured patients. Including $174 million and $221 million of charity care write-offs in the first quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively, Tenet’s uncompensated care expense was $537 million and $601 million, respectively, in these periods. As a percentage of adjusted revenue, uncompensated care expense represented 10.8 percent of adjusted revenue in the first quarter of 2015, down from 13.3 percent in the first quarter of 2014.

Conifer generated $82 million of Adjusted EBITDA, representing a 71 percent increase compared to $48 million in the first quarter of 2014. Including revenue from Tenet, Conifer’s revenue increased by $57 million, or 20 percent, to $342 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared to revenues of $285 million in the first quarter of 2014.

Tenet generated adjusted net income from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2015 of $67 million, or $0.67 per diluted share. This excludes $21 million, or $0.21 per share in after-tax impairments, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, litigation and investigation costs. The company reported a net loss from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2014 of $12 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, excluding the comparable items that totaled $15 million after-tax, or $0.16 per share.

Including the results of both continuing and discontinued operations, Tenet reported consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders of $47 million after-tax, or $0.47 per share in the first quarter of 2015, compared to a net loss of $32 million after-tax, or $0.33 per share, in the first quarter of 2014.

Cash and cash equivalents were $185 million at March 31, 2015, compared to $193 million at December 31, 2014. Tenet’s outstanding borrowings on its credit line were $350 million as of March 31, 2015. Accounts receivable days outstanding were 50.1 days at March 31, 2015 compared to 49.5 days at December 31, 2014.

Outlook for 2015

The company confirmed its existing Outlook for 2015, including revenue of $17.4 billion to $17.7 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $2.05 billion to $2.15 billion and earnings per share of $1.32 to $2.40 per share. For the second quarter ending June 30, 2015, the company expects to deliver Adjusted EBITDA of $500 million to $550 million and earnings per share of $0.15 to $0.64. The outlook for the second quarter includes $35 million of electronic health record incentives.

The company’s outlook for 2015 excludes the anticipated impact of the proposed joint venture with United Surgical Partners International, the acquisition of Aspen Healthcare, the joint venture with Baylor Scott & White, and other potential acquisition and development initiatives. The company intends to update its outlook for these items as part of its quarterly earnings releases following the finalization of each of these transactions.

(1) Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, is defined by the Company as net income (loss) attributable to Tenet Healthcare Corporation common shareholders before (1) the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principle, net of tax; (2) net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests; (3) preferred stock dividends; (4) income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax; (5) income tax benefit (expense); (6) investment earnings (loss); (7) gain (loss) from early extinguishment of debt; (8) net gain (loss) on sales of investments; (9) interest expense; (10) litigation and investigation benefit (costs), net of insurance recoveries; (11) hurricane insurance recoveries, net of costs; (12) impairment and restructuring charges and acquisition-related costs; and (13) depreciation and amortization. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA reported by other companies.

The Company provides this information as a supplement to GAAP information to assist itself and investors in understanding the impact of various items on its financial statements, some of which are recurring or involve cash payments. The Company uses this information in its analysis of the performance of its business excluding items that it does not consider as relevant in the performance of its hospitals in continuing operations. In addition, from time to time we use this measure to define certain performance targets under our compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity, but is a measure of operating performance that management uses in its business as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to Tenet Healthcare Corporation common shareholders. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes many items that are included in our financial statements, it does not provide a complete measure of our operating performance. Accordingly, investors are encouraged to use GAAP measures when evaluating the Company’s financial performance.

The reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to Tenet Healthcare Corporation common shareholders, the most comparable GAAP term, to Adjusted EBITDA, is set forth in the first table below for the three ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
