Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HCSG) (the “Company”)
reported for the three months ended June 30, 2022 revenue of $424.9
million and net income of $6.8 million, or $0.09 per basic and
diluted common share. The Company’s Board of Directors declared a
quarterly cash dividend of $0.21375 per common share, the 76th
consecutive increase since the initiation of dividend payments in
2003.
Ted Wahl, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We have now either
completed or are in the final stages of negotiation with our
clients in modifying our service agreements, a goal we very
aggressively pursued throughout the second quarter.”
Mr. Wahl continued, “As we continue to engage with our clients
to capture recent and future inflation on a more real-time basis,
several components of the partnership may be considered in the
negotiations. Among those are restructuring our notes receivable
with certain clients, altering the timing of collections with
others, and even exercising our termination rights when we are
unable to reach agreement.”
Mr. Wahl concluded, “While we recognize that some of these
decisions have a temporary impact on our reported results, we
remain confident that these service agreement modifications will
further strengthen our client partnerships and position us to exit
the year with cost of services in line with our historical target
of 86%.”
Second Quarter Results
Revenue for the quarter was $424.9 million, with housekeeping
& laundry and dining & nutrition segment revenues of $199.1
million and $225.8 million, respectively.
Direct cost of services was reported at $379.4 million, or
89.3%. Cost of services was impacted by a $7.0 million increase in
AR reserves related to a client group placed into receivership. The
Company remains on track to meet its goal of exiting the year with
cost of services in line with its historical target of 86%.
Housekeeping & laundry and dining & nutrition segment
margins were 9.0% and 4.5%, respectively.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) was reported at
$29.3 million; after adjusting for the $6.4 million decrease in
deferred compensation, actual SG&A was $35.7 million, or 8.4%.
The Company expects 2022 SG&A to approximate 8.5% to 9.5%.
The Company reported an effective tax rate of 17.3% and expects
a 2022 tax rate of 24% to 26%.
Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $9.0 million and
was impacted by a $31.6 million increase in accounts receivable,
primarily related to the timing of cash collections, offset, in
part, by a $19.4 million increase in accrued payroll. DSO for the
quarter was 71 days.
Dividend
The Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.21375 per common share, payable on September 23,
2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August
19, 2022. This represents the 77th consecutive quarterly cash
dividend payment, as well as the 76th consecutive increase since
the initiation of quarterly cash dividend payments in 2003.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This release and any schedules incorporated by reference into it
may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
federal securities laws, which are not historical facts but rather
are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about
our business and industry, and our beliefs and assumptions. Words
such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “estimates,”
“will,” “goal,” and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. The inclusion of forward-looking
statements should not be regarded as a representation by us that
any of our plans will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Such
forward-looking information is also subject to various risks and
uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, risks arising from our providing services to the
healthcare industry, primarily providers of long-term care; the
impact of and future effects of the COVID-19 pandemic or other
potential pandemics; having a significant portion of our
consolidated revenues contributed by one customer during the six
months ended June 30, 2022; credit and collection risks associated
with the healthcare industry; our claims experience related to
workers’ compensation and general liability insurance (including
any litigation claims, enforcement actions, regulatory actions and
investigations arising from personal injury and loss of life
related to COVID-19); the effects of changes in, or interpretations
of laws and regulations governing the healthcare industry, our
workforce and services provided, including state and local
regulations pertaining to the taxability of our services and other
labor-related matters such as minimum wage increases; the Company's
expectations with respect to selling, general, and administrative
expense; the impact of the concluded Securities and Exchange
Commission investigation and related class action lawsuit;
heightened volatility of commodity food prices partially due to
constrained global production as a result of the Russia-Ukraine
conflict and the risk factors described in Part I of our Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 under “Government
Regulation of Customers,” “Service Agreements and Collections,” and
“Competition” and under Item IA. “Risk Factors" in such Form 10K,
and in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended March 31, 2022.
These factors, in addition to delays in payments from customers
and/or customers in bankruptcy, have resulted in, and could
continue to result in, significant additional bad debts in the near
future. Additionally, our operating results would be adversely
affected by continued inflation particularly if increases in the
costs of labor and labor-related costs, materials, supplies and
equipment used in performing services (including the impact of
potential tariffs and COVID-19) could not be passed on to our
customers.
In addition, we believe that to improve our financial
performance we must continue to obtain service agreements with new
customers, retain and provide new services to existing customers,
achieve modest price increases on current service agreements with
existing customers and/or maintain internal cost reduction
strategies at our various operational levels. Furthermore, we
believe that our ability to sustain the internal development of
managerial personnel is an important factor impacting future
operating results and the successful execution of our projected
growth strategies. There can be no assurance that we will be
successful in that regard.
Healthcare Services Group, Inc. is the largest national provider
of professional housekeeping, laundry and dietary services to
long-term care and related health care facilities.
