Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Results ...

MENOMONEE FALLS, WI -- (Marketwire) -- 11/02/12 -- Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. ("ALC") (NYSE: ALC) reported a net loss of $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2012 as compared to net income of $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2011.

During the third quarters of both 2012 and 2011, ALC recorded One-Time Items described below. Excluding the One-Time Items, net loss in the third quarter of 2012 would have been $0.9 million as compared to net income of $5.6 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Revenues in the third quarter of 2012 were $55.6 million as compared to revenues of $58.6 million in the third quarter of 2011. Occupancy declined from 5,628 units in the third quarter of 2011 to 5,251 units in the third quarter of 2012.

"I am pleased to report significant progress in the regulatory arena," commented Dr. Charles "Chip" Roadman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The Company has rehired a number of key former and experienced new employees which has resulted in enhanced services to our residents positioning the Company for future operating growth. These operating changes at the residence levels have resulted in a positive upward trend in occupancy levels starting in mid-September."

The Company announced today that as part of an operational review of certain of its residences and taking into account the recommendation of its Facility Review Committee, it will be commencing a process to divest its seven owned residences in New Jersey. If the New Jersey residences are divested, it is intended that the proceeds will be used primarily to pay down debt. The Board of Directors expects the process to be completed in the first quarter of 2013. The Board of Directors anticipates such a transaction will be accretive to earnings. In the first three quarters of 2012, the owned New Jersey residences had revenues of $2.7 million and a pre-tax loss of $1.1 million. Although the Company has received expressions of interest in respect of the New Jersey residences and will be conducting a divesture process, no assurance can be given that such a divestiture will be completed, the timing or the amount of proceeds from the divestiture of such residences. In addition, the Board is considering divestiture of certain closed and other underperforming residences.

The Company also announced today that a Special Committee of the Board would continue its strategic review process to explore corporate alternatives with a view to enhancing shareholder value. No assurance can be given that the process will result in a transaction or, if a transaction is undertaken, the timing or the terms of any such transaction.

For the first nine months of 2012, ALC reported a net loss of $23.5 million as compared to net income of $17.1 million in the first nine months of 2011.

Excluding the One-Time Items described below, net income in the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 would have been $11.0 million and $15.9 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2012, ALC operated 211 senior living residences comprising 9,325 units.

The following discussions include the impact of the One-Time Items.

Quarters ended September 30, 2012, September 30, 2011, June 30, 2012

Revenues of $55.6 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2012 decreased $3.0 million or 5.1 % as compared to $58.6 million in the third quarter of 2011 and decreased $1.3 million or 2.3% from $56.9 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Adjusted EBITDAR for the third quarter of 2012 was $8.2 million or 14.8% of revenues and

  • decreased $13.1 million or 61.5% from $21.3 million and 36.4% of revenues in the third quarter of 2011; and
  • decreased $8.8 million or 51.6% from $17.0 million and 29.8% of revenues in the second quarter of 2012.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2012 was $5.4 million or 9.7% of revenues and

  • decreased $11.5 million or 68.1% from $16.9 million and 28.9% of revenues in the third quarter of 2011; and
  • decreased $8.3 million or 60.6% from $13.7 million and 24.0% of revenues in the second quarter of 2012.

Third quarter 2012 compared to third quarter 2011

Revenues in the third quarter of 2012 decreased by $3.0 million from the third quarter of 2011 primarily due to a decrease in private pay occupancy ($3.3 million), and the planned reduction in the number of units occupied by Medicaid residents ($0.4 million), partially offset by rate increases ($0.7 million). Average private pay rates increased in the third quarter of 2012 by 1.2% from average private pay rates for the third quarter of 2011. Average overall rates, including the impact of improved payer mix, increased in the third quarter of 2012 by 1.7% from comparable rates for the third quarter of 2011.

Both Adjusted EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDA decreased in the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to an increase in residence operations expenses ($8.1 million) (this excludes the gain on disposal of fixed assets), an increase in general and administrative expenses ($2.0 million) (this excludes non-cash equity based compensation) and a decrease in revenue ($3.0 million) partially offset, for Adjusted EBITDA only, a decrease in residence lease expense ($1.6 million) resulting from the June 15, 2012, purchase of twelve previously leased properties. Residence operations expenses increased primarily from an increases in labor expenses ($4.9 million), maintenance expense ($1.0 million), legal and consulting fees ($1.0 million), bad debt expense ($0.3 million), travel and conference fees ($0.2 million), food expense ($0.2 million) and other expenses ($0.5 million). General and administrative expenses increased as a result of an internal investigation, litigation and expenses incurred in connection with public relations and quality improvement initiatives.

Third quarter 2012 compared to the second quarter 2012

Revenues in the third quarter of 2012 declined by $1.3 million from the second quarter of 2012 primarily due to lower occupancy ($1.2 million) and lower average daily revenue as a result of promotional discounts ($0.7 million), partially offset by one additional day in the third quarter ($0.6 million). Average private pay rates declined in the third quarter of 2012 by 1.2% from average private pay rates for the second quarter of 2012.

Decreased Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR in the third quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2012 resulted primarily from an increase in residence operations expenses ($7.5 million) (this excludes the gain on disposal of fixed assets), a decrease in revenue discussed above ($1.3 million), and an increase in general and administrative expenses ($0.1 million) (this excludes non-cash equity-based compensation) partially offset for Adjusted EBITDA only, a decrease in residence lease expense ($0.5 million) resulting from the June 15, 2012, purchase of twelve previously leased properties. Residence operations expenses increased primarily from an increase in labor expenses ($4.7 million), utilities expense ($0.8 million), maintenance expense ($0.7 million), legal and consulting fees ($0.7 million, travel and conference fees ($0.4 million), and food expense ($0.2 million). General and administrative expenses increased as a result of an increase in payroll expense ($0.4 million) partially offset by a reduction in legal and consulting expenses ($0.5 million.).

Nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

Revenues of $171.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $4.2 million or 2.4% from $175.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Adjusted EBITDAR for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $46.4 million, or 27.1% of revenues and

  • decreased $16.3 million or 26.0% from $62.8 million and 35.7% of revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $35.7 million, or 20.9% of revenues and

  • decreased $13.8 million or 27.8% from $49.5 million and 28.2% of revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2011

Revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $4.2 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily due to a decrease in private pay occupancy ($5.2 million), and the planned reduction in the number of units occupied by Medicaid residents ($1.3 million), partially offset by higher average daily revenue from rate increases ($1.7 million) and one additional day in the 2012 period due to leap year ($0.6 million). Average rates increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 by 1.6% over average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR decreased in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily from an increase in residence operations expenses ($8.6 million) (this excludes the gain on disposal of fixed assets and write-off of construction costs), a decrease in revenues discussed above ($4.2 million) and an increase in general and administrative expenses ($3.5 million) (this excludes non-cash equity based compensation) and, for Adjusted EBITDA only, a decrease in residence lease expense ($2.5 million). Residence operations expenses increased primarily from an increase in bad debts. General and administrative expenses increased as a result of an internal investigation, an all-company conference, litigation and expenses incurred in connection with public relations and quality improvement initiatives. Residence operations expenses increased as a result of increased salaries and wages associated with quality restoration efforts initiated in June 2012 and an increase in professional fees from litigation and regulatory issues primarily in the southeast.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss/income from continuing operations before income taxes, interest expense net of interest income, depreciation and amortization, equity based compensation expense, transaction costs and certain non-cash, gains and losses, including disposal of assets, impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, impairment of investments, impairment of intangibles and non-recurring lease termination and settlement fees. Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as Adjusted EBITDA before rent expenses incurred for leased assisted living properties. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR as key performance indicators and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR expressed as a percentage of total revenues as a measurement of margin.

We understand that EBITDA and EBITDAR, or derivatives thereof, are customarily used by lenders, financial and credit analysts, and many investors as a performance measure in evaluating a company's ability to service debt and meet other payment obligations or as a common valuation measurement in the long-term care industry. Moreover, ALC's revolving credit facility contains covenants in which a form of EBITDA is used as a measure of compliance, and we anticipate EBITDA will be used in covenants in any new financing arrangements that we may establish. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our core results because these measures exclude the effects of non-operating factors related to our capital assets, such as the historical cost of the assets.

We report specific line items separately, and exclude them from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR because such items are transitional in nature and would otherwise distort historical trends. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR to assess our operating performance and in making financing decisions. In particular, we use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR in analyzing potential acquisitions and internal expansion possibilities. Adjusted EBITDAR performance is also used in determining compensation levels for our senior executives. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities, and other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR on a consistent basis from period to period, thereby allowing for comparability of operating performance.
