Five Star Quality Care, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2015 Results

Quarterly Adjusted EBITDAR Increases 14% Year Over Year

Fourteen Management Contracts Added May 1, 2015

NEWTON, Mass.--()--Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (NYSE: FVE) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Five Star’s President and CEO, Bruce J. Mackey Jr., made the following statement:

Five Star’s financial performance improved in the first quarter as adjusted EBITDAR (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent) increased 14% year over year to $59.3 million. This increase was the result of a 2.0% increase in average monthly rates at our owned and leased communities since last year and of the EBITDAR we realized from one senior living community we acquired and two senior living communities we began to manage since March 31, 2014. Also, our continued focus on expense controls helped to more than offset a modest decline in occupancy.”

First Quarter 2015 Financial Results:

  • Total revenues for the first quarter of 2015 increased 1.7% to $334.0 million from $328.4 million for the same period in 2014. Growth in revenues was the result of increases in average monthly rates to residents who pay privately for services.
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for the first quarter of 2015 were $4.7 million compared to $0.0 million for the same period in 2014. EBITDA, excluding certain items described below that Five Star believes may be non-recurring, was $9.6 million and $2.7 million for the first quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent excluding those items, or Adjusted EBITDAR, were $59.3 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $51.8 million for the same period in 2014.
  • Loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2015 was $4.8 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, compared to loss from continuing operations of $5.9 million, or $0.12 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2014.
  • Net loss for the first quarter of 2015 was $5.3 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2014. Net loss for the first quarter of 2015 included a loss from discontinued operations of $0.5 million; net loss for the first quarter of 2014 included a loss from discontinued operations of $0.9 million.
  • EBITDA, EBITDAR, loss from continuing operations and net loss in the first quarter of 2015 included $4.9 million of items that Five Star believes may not be recurring and which included a revenue reserve of $2.4 million and compliance and professional costs of $2.5 million, primarily resulting from Medicare records billing deficiencies which Five Star discovered and self-reported as previously disclosed and as described below. EBITDA, EBITDAR, loss from continuing operations and net loss in the first quarter of 2014 included $3.0 million of accounting costs incurred in connection with the restatement of certain previously issued financial statements and the delayed completion of Five Star’s 2013 third quarter financial reporting which Five Star believes may not be recurring.
  • A reconciliation of loss from continuing operations determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to EBITDA, EBITDA excluding certain items and Adjusted EBITDAR for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 appears later in this press release.

First Quarter 2015 Operating Results (continuing operations):

  • Occupancy at owned and leased senior living communities for the first quarter of 2015 decreased by 40 basis points (“bps”) to 85.5% from 85.9% for the same period in 2014.
  • The average monthly rate at owned and leased senior living communities for the first quarter of 2015 increased by 2.0% to $4,623 from $4,534 for the same period in 2014.
  • The percentage of revenues derived from residents’ private resources at owned and leased senior living communities for the first quarter of 2015 increased by 60 bps to 77.3% from 76.7% for the same period in 2014.
  • Management fee revenues increased 4.0% for the first quarter of 2015 to $2.5 million from $2.4 million for the same period last year.

Expansion and Disposition Activities:

Since January 1, 2015, Five Star has agreed to acquire two senior living communities with a combined 152 living units and began, or expects to begin, managing 15 senior living communities for Senior Housing Properties Trust, or SNH:

  • In March 2015, Five Star entered into an agreement to acquire two 100% private pay independent living communities with 68 and 84 living units, respectively, located in Tennessee for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $26.0 million, including the assumption of approximately $17.0 million of mortgage debt. Five Star currently expects this transaction to close during 2015.
  • In April 2015, SNH agreed to acquire a senior living community with 40 private pay independent living units located in Cumming, GA. Five Star expects to enter into a management agreement with SNH to manage this community. This community is adjacent to another community that Five Star manages for SNH. This acquisition is expected to close when the development of this new community is completed in 2015.
  • In May 2015, Five Star began managing 14 primarily private pay assisted living communities in four states with a combined 881 living units which were acquired by SNH.

In February 2015, Five Star and SNH sold a vacant senior living community that was previously disclosed as held for sale for $250,000. As a result of this sale, Five Star’s annual minimum rent payable to SNH decreased by approximately $22,500 in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease.

As of the date of this press release, Five Star is continuing to market for sale one community it owns with 32 living units and Five Star and SNH are continuing to jointly market for sale three senior living communities with a combined total of 167 living units, all of which are reported as held for sale and discontinued operations in Five Star’s financial statements.

Financing Activities:

In April 2015, Five Star extended the maturity date of its $150.0 million revolving credit facility by one year to April 13, 2016.

Compliance Update:

As previously disclosed, as a result of Five Star’s compliance program to review medical records related to its Medicare billing practices, during 2014 Five Star discovered potentially inadequate documentation and other issues at one of its leased SNFs. This compliance review was not initiated in response to any specific complaint or allegation, but was a review of the type that Five Star periodically undertakes to test its own compliance with applicable Medicare billing rules. As a result of these discoveries, Five Star made a voluntary disclosure of deficiencies to the United States Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General, or the OIG, pursuant to the OIG’s Provider Self-Disclosure Protocol. Five Star recently completed its investigation and assessment of these matters and expects to submit a final supplemental disclosure to the OIG in May 2015. In the first quarter of 2015, Five Star accrued a revenue reserve of $2.4 million to account for historical Medicare payments which are expected to be repaid (the total revenue reserve recorded at December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015 was $4.3 million and $6.7 million, respectively). In addition, Five Star recorded expense for additional costs incurred or costs Five Star expects to incur, including OIG imposed penalties, as a result of this matter totaling $3.6 million and $2.3 million for the year ending December 31, 2014 and the quarter ending March 31, 2015, respectively, of which $5.1 million remains accrued and not paid at March 31, 2015. Pursuant to the OIG’s Self-Disclosure Protocol, Five Star expects that the OIG will review and evaluate Five Star’s investigation and assessment of these deficiencies and that review could result in a requirement for further investigation and a possible increase in Five Star’s liabilities.

Five Star considers these Non-GAAP financial measures to be meaningful disclosures because it believes that the presentation of these Non-GAAP financial measures may help investors to gain a better understanding of changes in its operating results, and may also help investors who wish to make comparisons between Five Star and other companies on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. These Non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to evaluate Five Star’s financial performance and for comparing Five Star’s performance over time and to the performance of its competitors. These Non-GAAP financial measures as presented may not, however, be comparable to amounts calculated by other companies. This information should not be considered as an alternative to income (loss) from continuing operations, net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities or any other financial operating or performance or liquidity measure established by GAAP. The following table includes the reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures to loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in Five Star’s condensed consolidated financial statements, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
