HCSG Reports Q3 2023 Results; Raises Cash Flow Expectations

  • Revenue of $411.4 million; adjusted revenue(1) of $424.0 million, in line with expectations.
  • Net income and diluted EPS of ($5.5) million and ($0.07); adjusted net income(1) and adjusted diluted EPS(1) of $12.5 million and $0.17, a 13.7% and 13.3% increase, respectively, over Q3 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $23.2 million, a 10.2% increase over Q3 2022.
  • Cash flow from operations of $2.9 million; adjusted cash flow from operations(1) of $18.0 million, a 208.9% increase over Q3 2022.
  • Raises expectations for second half of 2023 cash flow from operations from a range of $20.0 million to $30.0 million, to $35.0 million to $45.0 million.

Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HCSG) today reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Ted Wahl, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We entered the second half of the year with three clear priorities and made substantial progress on all three during the quarter. The first was continuing to manage adjusted costs of services at 86%, which we did. The second was collecting what we bill, building on the strong momentum that we gained in May and June. In Q3 we delivered our strongest cash collections of the year, collecting over 98% of what we billed, with the modest shortfall primarily related to the timing of new business adds during the quarter. The third priority was executing on our organic growth strategy. Adjusted revenue for the quarter was up sequentially, our sales pipeline is growing, and our recruiting and management development efforts are ramping up as we ready ourselves for growth. We look forward to ending the year on a strong note and expect these positive operating, cash collection, and new business trends to continue into 2024.”

Mr. Wahl continued, “We also had two long-term clients initiate restructurings during the quarter. And while the resulting non-cash charges created some noise in Q3 revenue and earnings, I believe that, longer term, these restructuring actions will result in stronger, healthier clients with significant opportunities for future growth. The other positive takeaway is that with the impact of these two legacy issues behind us and the operating landscape continuing to improve, our visibility to deliver consistent results only increases.”

Mr. Wahl concluded, “As we look toward 2024, industry fundamentals continue to improve, and a stabilizing labor market and select state-based reimbursement increases have contributed to the gradual but steady occupancy recovery. On the regulatory front, there remains uncertainty as to what a final minimum staffing rule may look like. We remain hopeful that CMS will fully consider the impact on operators before finalizing a rule, and if one is ultimately implemented, have confidence in our customers’ ability to manage any such rule.”

Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude the impact of certain items. See the tables within "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for more information.

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 and 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 nine months ended September 30, 2023; credit and collection risks associated with the healthcare industry; the impact of bank failures; 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; and the risk factors described in Part I of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 under “Government Regulation of Customers,” “Service Agreements and Collections,” and “Competition” and under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in such Form 10-K.

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) cannot 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.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To supplement HCSG’s consolidated financial information, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating operating performance and comparing such performance to other companies.

The Company is presenting adjusted revenues, adjusted segment revenues, adjusted segment margins, adjusted costs of services provided, adjusted selling, general and administrative expense, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted cash flows provided by (used in) operations, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), and EBITDA excluding items impacting comparability ("Adjusted EBITDA"). We cannot provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Client restructurings include changes to contracts with existing customers for which the Company has either recorded a reduction to revenue or an increase to bad debt expense due to clients entering bankruptcy, receivership, or out-of-court workouts.

(2)

The bad debt expense adjustment reflects the difference between GAAP bad debt expense (CECL) and historical write-offs as a percentage of adjusted revenues, both of which are based on the same seven year look-back period.

(3)

Represents the changes in fair market value on deferred compensation investments. The impact of offsetting investment portfolio gains are included in the “Other (expense) income, net” caption on the Consolidated Statements on Income (Loss).
