U.S. Physical Therapy Reports First Quarter 2024 Results
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Adjusted EBITDA (1), a non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") measure, was $16.7 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 ("2024 First Quarter") compared to $18.5 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 ("2023 First Quarter"), with the variance due to the Medicare rate reductions that took effect at the beginning of 2024 and the impact of significant adverse weather events in January 2024. The Medicare rate reductions decreased Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $1.7 million while the adverse weather resulted in a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $1.3 million. Operating Results (1), a non-GAAP measure, was $7.7 million in each of the 2024 First Quarter and 2023 First Quarter. On a per share basis, Operating Results was $0.51 in the 2024 First Quarter compared to $0.59 in the 2023 First Quarter, with the decrease attributable to the increase in shares outstanding associated with the Company's secondary offering completed in May 2023. The impact of the Medicare rate reduction and weather on 2024 First Quarter Operating Results was approximately $2.2 million, or $0.15 per share. Net income attributable to USPH's shareholders ("USPH net income"), a GAAP measure, was $8.0 million for the 2024 First Quarter compared to $7.4 million for the 2023 First Quarter. In accordance with GAAP, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of taxes, is not included in net income but is charged directly to retained earnings; however, this change is included in the computation of earnings per share. Earnings per share for the 2024 First Quarter was $0.46 compared to $0.58 for the 2023 First Quarter. Total revenue from physical therapy operations for the 2024 First Quarter increased $5.3 million, or 4.1%, to $134.4 million. Net rate per patient visit for the 2024 First Quarter increased to $103.37 from $103.12 for the 2023 First Quarter despite the 3.5% Medicare rate reduction in effect for most of the 2024 First Quarter. The increase in net rate per patient visit reflects the Company's strategic priority of increasing reimbursement rates through contract negotiations with commercial and other payors as well as growth in workers compensation as percent of the Company's overall mix of business. Average daily visits per clinic was 29.5 for the 2024 First Quarter compared to 29.8 in the comparable prior year quarter. Total patient visits were 1,268,002 in the 2024 First Quarter, a 3.3% increase from 2023 First Quarter. Average daily visits per clinic in January 2024 of 27.4 were lower than the prior year of 28.9, while average daily visits per clinic in February and March of 2024 were higher than the prior year, the highest volumes for those two months in the Company's history. Industrial injury prevention ("IIP") services revenue was $21.3 million for the 2024 First Quarter, an increase of 9.8% as compared to the 2023 First Quarter, with an increase in gross profit of 15.1%. During the 2024 First Quarter, the Company added 14 new clinics, including the acquisition described below, and closed six clinics bringing its total clinic count to 679 as of March 31, 2024, as compared to 647 clinics as of March 31, 2023. On March 29, 2024, the Company acquired a 50% equity interest in a nine-clinic practice for a purchase price of $16.4 million, with the original practice owners retaining a 50% equity interest. The acquired business currently generates approximately $11.4 million in annual revenues and approximately 65,000 annual visits. On April 30, 2024, one of the Company's primary IIP businesses, Briotix Health Limited Partnership, acquired 100% of an IIP services business for a purchase price of $24.0 million. The acquired business currently generates approximately $11.0 million in annual revenues. The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.44 per share payable on June 14, 2024, to shareholders of record on May 23, 2024. Management increased full-year guidance and now expects Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 to be in the range of $82.5 million to $87.5 million. See "Management Updates 2024 Guidance" below for more information.

MANAGEMENT'S COMMENTS
Chris Reading, Chief Executive Officer, said, "After a relatively slow January, visits have rebounded nicely and we are ahead of plan thus far for the year, which has been reflected in our guidance update. Demand remains strong for our life-improving physical therapy services, and we are excited about the newest additions to our PT and IIP family of companies. Also importantly, we are seeing our contract renegotiations and focus on workers comp bear some nice fruit. We remain focused on growing our most profitable markets, deploying capital for additional acquisitions, continuing our work on pricing and, most importantly, serving those well who are entrusted to our care."
Carey Hendrickson, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our revenue and EBITDA in the first quarter of 2024 were higher than our internal expectations due to strong volumes in February and March and continued progress in our net rate, giving us confidence to raise the range of our full year EBITDA expectations by more than the approximate $2.0 million positive EBITDA impact of the previously reported Medicare rate adjustment effective March 9."

Net revenue from physical therapy operations increased $5.3 million, or 4.1%, to $134.4 million for the 2024 First Quarter from $129.2 million for the 2023 First Quarter. This increase was primarily due to the increase in visits from the 32 net new clinics added since the comparable prior year period partially offset by an approximate $3.6 million adverse impact of weather in January 2024. Additionally, net rate per patient visit increased to $103.37 for the 2024 First Quarter from $103.12 for the 2023 First Quarter. This increase was mainly driven by higher reimbursement rates from commercial and other payors as a result of contract negotiations and an increase in workers compensation as a percent of the Company's total net patient revenues, partially offset by the Medicare rate reductions that took effect at the beginning of the year which decreased net patient revenues by approximately $1.9 million for the 2024 First Quarter. The Medicare rate reductions will be less impactful in future quarters as the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024 adjusted the Medicare rate reduction to approximately 1.8% from approximately 3.5%, effective on March 9, 2024. Other revenues increased $0.8 million, or 29.9%, to $3.4 million for the 2024 First Quarter from $2.6 million for the 2023 First Quarter due to the increase in the number of management contracts since the comparable prior year period.
Operating costs from physical therapy operations increased $8.3 million, or 8.1%, to $110.4 million in the 2024 First Quarter from $102.1 million in the 2023 First Quarter primarily driven by costs associated with the 32 net new clinics added since the comparable prior year period. Salaries and related costs per visit increased to $61.42 in the 2024 First Quarter from $59.14 in the 2023 First Quarter while total operating costs per visit increased to $85.50 from $81.97 over the same periods, respectively.
Gross profit from physical therapy operations in the 2024 First Quarter decreased $3.0 million, or 11.2%, to $24.1 million from $27.1 million in the 2023 First Quarter. The gross profit margin from physical therapy operations was 17.9% in the 2024 First Quarter.

The gross profit margin from IIP operations increased to 20.4% in the 2024 First Quarter from 19.5% in the 2023 First Quarter.
Corporate Office and Other Expenses
Corporate costs increased $0.2 million, or 1.6%, to $14.1 million in the 2024 First Quarter from $13.9 million in 2023 First Quarter due to an increase in support costs related to the larger number of clinics and the timing of certain expenses.
Operating income was $14.3 million for the 2024 First Quarter compared to $17.0 million for the 2023 First Quarter.
Total other income (expense), net, was $0.4 million in the 2024 First Quarter compared to ($2.6) million in the 2023 First Quarter.
Interest expense decreased $0.6 million to $2.0 million (net of $0.9 million savings from the Company's interest rate swap arrangement) for the 2024 First Quarter compared to $2.6 million (net of $0.6 million savings from the interest rate swap agreement) in the 2023 First Quarter due to a lower outstanding balance on our revolver, which we paid down in May 2023. The interest rate on the Company's term loan was 4.7% for the 2024 First Quarter and 4.9% for the 2023 First Quarter, with an all-in effective interest rate, including all associated costs, of 5.3% and 5.5% over the same periods, respectively. Interest income from investing excess cash (primarily proceeds from the secondary offering sale of the Company's stock completed in May 2023) in a high-yield savings account was $1.5 million during the 2024 First Quarter. The Company revalued contingent and put-right liabilities related to certain acquisitions and recognized a net gain of $0.5 million (a decrease in the related liabilities) in the 2024 First Quarter compared to a net expense of $0.8 million (an increase in the related liabilities) in the 2023 First Quarter.
The provision for income taxes was $3.1 million in the 2024 First Quarter compared to $3.0 million during the 2023 First Quarter while the effective tax rates were 28.1% and 28.6% over the same periods, respectively.
USPH Net Income and Non-GAAP Measures
Net income attributable to non-controlling interest (temporary and permanent) was $3.6 million in the 2024 First Quarter compared to $4.0 million in the 2023 First Quarter.
USPH net income was $8.0 million for the 2024 First Quarter as compared to $7.4 million for the 2023 First Quarter. In accordance with GAAP, the revaluation of non-controlling interest, net of taxes, is not included in net income but is charged directly to retained earnings; however, this change is included in the computation of earnings per share. Earnings per share for 2024 First Quarter was $0.46 compared to $0.58 for 2023 First Quarter.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was $16.7 million for the 2024 First Quarter compared to $18.5 million for the 2023 First Quarter due to the Medicare rate reduction and adverse impact of weather events in January previously discussed. Non-GAAP Operating Results was $7.7 million, or $0.51 per share, in the 2024 First Quarter as compared to $7.7 million, or $0.59 per share, in the 2023 First Quarter, with the decrease attributable to the increase in shares outstanding associated with the Company's secondary offering completed in May 2023, as well as the Medicare rate reduction and adverse impact of weather events in January.
See pages 11 and 12 of this release for the definition and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW
Total cash and cash equivalents were $132.3 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $32.6 million at March 31, 2023.

QUARTERLY DIVIDEND
The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.44 per share payable on June 14, 2024, to shareholders of record on May 23, 2024.
MANAGEMENT RAISES 2024 EARNINGS GUIDANCE
Management currently expects Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 to be in the range of $82.5 million to $87.5 million. The $2.5 million increase in guidance is attributable to the change in the Medicare rate reduction from 3.5%, which was effective from January 1 through March 8, to 1.8% effective March 9, as adjusted by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024, as well as the Company's strong performance in the 2024 First Quarter relative to management's expectations. Consistent with the previously-provided guidance, the updated guidance includes the expected EBITDA contribution from acquisitions that either have closed or are expected to close in or shortly after the first half of 2024.
The annual guidance figures will not be updated unless there is a material development that causes management to believe that Adjusted EBITDA will be significantly outside the given range.

U. S. PHYSICAL THERAPY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES ADJUSTED EBITDA AND OPERATING RESULTS
The following tables provide details of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results (non-GAAP measures). Management believes providing Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results to investors is useful information for comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have different equity structures. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results, which eliminate certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as the principal measures to evaluate and monitor financial performance period over period.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, Relief Funds, changes in revaluation of put-right liability, equity-based awards compensation expense, other income and related portions for non-controlling interests.
Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH shareholders less, changes in revaluation of a put-right liability, Relief Funds, changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, and any allocations to non-controlling interests, all net of taxes. Operating Results per share also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact.
Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.
