Aveanna Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAH), a leading,
diversified home care platform focused on providing care to
medically complex, high-cost patient populations, today announced
financial results for the three-month period ended April 1, 2023.
Jeff Shaner, Chief Executive Officer, commented
“Our first quarter results reflect the Aveanna team’s remarkable
ability to adapt and transform our businesses as we execute on our
strategic initiatives. Enhanced payor partnerships allow us to
further invest in our caregivers and broaden our care to more
patients in need. We are delivering high-quality care to our
patients at an exceptional value to our government and payor
partners. The Aveanna team’s efforts produced solid results, and we
are pleased with our early 2023 performance. We remain confident in
our outlook for the remainder of 2023.”
Three-Month Periods Ended April 1, 2023 and
April 2, 2022
Revenue was $466.4 million for the three-month
period ended April 1, 2023, as compared to $450.5 million for the
three-month period ended April 2, 2022, an increase of $15.9
million, or 3.5%. The overall increase in revenue was attributable
to a $22.8 million increase in Private Duty Services (“PDS”)
segment revenue and a $3.6 million increase in Medical Solutions
("MS") segment revenue, partially offset by a $10.5 million
decrease in Home Health & Hospice (“HHH”) segment revenue over
the comparable quarter.
Gross margin was $144.5 million, or 31.0% of
revenue, for the three months ended April 1, 2023, as compared to
$144.8 million, or 32.1% of revenue, for the three months ended
April 2, 2022, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 0.2%.
Net loss was $32.0 million for the first quarter
of 2023, as compared to net income of $25.3 million for the first
quarter of 2022, primarily attributable to a $56.8 million decrease
in non-cash valuation gains associated with interest rate
derivatives driven by changes in market expectations for future
interest rates. Net loss per diluted share was $0.17 for the first
quarter of 2023, as compared to net income per diluted share of
$0.14 for the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted net loss per diluted
share was $0.05 for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to
adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.04 for the first
quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA was $28.5 million, or 6.1% of
revenue, for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to $38.0
million, or 8.4% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2022.
Liquidity, Cash Flow, and
Debt
- As of April 1, 2023, we had cash of
$34.4 million and incremental borrowing capacity of $20.0 million
under our securitization facility. Our revolver was undrawn, with
approximately $162.0 million of borrowing capacity and
approximately $38.0 million of outstanding letters of credit.
- First quarter 2023
net cash provided by operating activities was $7.5 million. Free
cash flow was $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2023. See
“Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Free cash flow” below.
- As of April 1, 2023
we had bank debt of $1,476.7 million. Our interest rate exposure
under our credit facilities is currently hedged with the following
instruments:
- $520.0 million
notional amount of interest rate swaps that convert variable rate
debt to a fixed rate, and
- $880.0 million
notional amount of interest rate caps that cap our exposure to
LIBOR at 3.0%.
The leverage maintenance covenants in our
revolving credit facility do not become operative unless more than
30% of the total commitment under the revolving credit facility has
been utilized, subject to a $15.0 million carve-out for letters of
credit. Should the leverage maintenance covenant become operative,
maximum allowable first lien leverage would be 7.6x.
David Afshar, Chief Financial Officer, commented
“We are pleased with the first quarter results delivered by our
dedicated Aveanna teams as we continue to focus on improving the
quality of our earnings as well as cash flow growth. We believe we
have the necessary liquidity to fund our operations, and our hedged
positions on our credit facilities provide us with continued
protection against interest rate increases. Our interest rate swaps
extend through June 2026, and our interest rate caps extend through
February 2027.”
Full Year 2023 Guidance
- Revenue of at least $1,840 million
Consistent with prior practice, we are not
providing guidance on net income at this time due to the volatility
of certain required inputs that are not available without
unreasonable efforts, including future fair value adjustments
associated with our interest rate swaps and caps.
- Adjusted EBITDA of at least $130
million
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results of operations
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (“GAAP”), we also evaluate our financial performance
using EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Field contribution, Field
contribution margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per
diluted share, and Free cash flow. Given our determination of
adjustments in arriving at our computations, these non-GAAP
measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be
considered in isolation or as substitutes or alternatives to net
income or loss, revenue, operating income or loss, cash flows from
operating activities, total indebtedness or any other financial
measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP
financial measures and are not intended to replace financial
performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP, such as
net (loss) income. Rather, we present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as
supplemental measures of our performance. We define EBITDA as net
(loss) income before interest expense, net; income tax (expense)
benefit; and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted
EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted for the impact of certain other items
that are either non-recurring, infrequent, non-cash, unusual, or
items deemed by management to not be indicative of the performance
of our core operations, including impairments of goodwill,
intangible assets, and other long-lived assets; non-cash,
share-based compensation; loss on extinguishment of debt; fees
related to debt modifications; the effect of interest rate
derivatives; acquisition-related and integration costs; legal costs
and settlements associated with acquisition matters; COVID-19
related costs; restructuring costs; other legal matters; and other
system transition costs, professional fees and other costs. As
non-GAAP financial measures, our computations of EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA may vary from similarly termed non-GAAP financial
measures used by other companies, making comparisons with other
companies on the basis of this measure impracticable.
We believe our computations of EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are helpful in highlighting trends in our core
operating performance. In determining which adjustments are made to
arrive at EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we consider both (1) certain
non-recurring, infrequent, non-cash or unusual items, which can
vary significantly from year to year, as well as (2) certain other
items that may be recurring, frequent, or settled in cash but which
we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance
and make business decisions.
We have incurred substantial acquisition-related
costs and integration costs. The underlying acquisition activities
take place over a defined timeframe, have distinct project
timelines and are incremental to activities and costs that arise in
the ordinary course of our business. Therefore, we believe it is
important to exclude these costs from our Adjusted EBITDA because
it provides us a normalized view of our core, ongoing operations
after integrating our acquired companies, which we believe is an
important measure in assessing our performance.
Field contribution and Field contribution
margin
Field contribution and Field contribution margin
are non-GAAP financial measures and are not intended to replace
financial performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP,
such as gross margin and gross margin percentage. Rather, we
present Field contribution and Field contribution margin as
supplemental measures of our performance. We define Field
contribution as gross margin less branch and regional
administrative expenses. Field contribution margin is Field
contribution as a percentage of revenue. As non-GAAP financial
measures, our computations of Field contribution and Field
contribution margin may vary from similarly termed non-GAAP
financial measures used by other companies, making comparisons with
other companies on the basis of these measures impracticable.
Field contribution and Field contribution margin
have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered
in isolation or as substitutes or alternatives to gross margin,
gross margin percentage, net income or loss, revenue, operating
income or loss, cash flows from operating activities, total
indebtedness or any other financial measures calculated in
accordance with GAAP.
Management believes Field contribution and Field
contribution margin are helpful in highlighting trends in our core
operating performance and evaluating trends in our branch and
regional results, which can vary from year to year. We use Field
contribution and Field contribution margin to make business
decisions and assess the operating performance and results
delivered by our core field operations, prior to corporate and
other costs not directly related to our field operations. These
metrics are also important because they guide us in determining
whether or not our branch and regional administrative expenses are
appropriately sized to support our caregivers and direct patient
care operations. Additionally, Field contribution and Field
contribution margin determine how effective we are in managing our
field supervisory and administrative costs associated with
supporting our provision of services and sale of products.
Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per
diluted share
Adjusted net income represents net income (loss)
as adjusted for the impact of GAAP income tax, goodwill, intangible
and other long-lived asset impairment charges, non-cash share-based
compensation expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, interest rate
derivatives, acquisition-related costs, integration costs, legal
costs, COVID-related costs net of reimbursement, restructuring
costs, other legal matters, other system transition costs,
professional fees and certain other miscellaneous items on a
pre-tax basis. Adjusted net income includes a provision for income
taxes derived utilizing a combined statutory tax rate. The combined
statutory tax rate is our estimate of our long-term tax rate. The
most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss).
Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share
represents adjusted net income (loss) on a per diluted share basis
using the weighted-average number of diluted shares outstanding for
the period. The most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss)
per share, diluted.
Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per
diluted share are important to us because they allow us to assess
financial results, exclusive of the items mentioned above that are
not operational in nature or comparable to those of our
competitors.
Free cash flow
Free cash flow is a liquidity measure that
represents operating cash flow, adjusted for the impact of
purchases of property, equipment and software, principal payments
on term loans, notes payable and financing leases, and settlements
with derivative counterparties. The most comparable GAAP measure is
cash flow from operations.
We believe free cash flow is helpful in
highlighting the cash generated or used by the Company, after
taking into consideration mandatory payments on term loans, notes
payable and financing leases, as well cash needed for
non-acquisition related capital expenditures, and cash paid to or
received from derivative counterparties.
