AdCare Reports Third Quarter Results
Pending Acquisition of Florida Facility Expected for First Quarter 2016; Acquisition Pipeline Continues to Expand
ATLANTA, Nov. 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ADK) (NYSE MKT: ADK.PRA), a self-managed healthcare real estate investment company that invests primarily in real estate purposed for senior living and long-term healthcare, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Business Highlights
- The company signed a non-binding letter of intent to purchase a skilled nursing facility with 55 operational beds in Florida for approximately $4.8 million, net of reserves. The purchase is expected to close in the first quarter of 2016. The purchase of the facility is subject to, among other things, satisfactory due diligence, HUD approval and the negotiation and execution of a definitive purchase agreement containing customary representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions.
- On September 29, 2015, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of common stock. This quarterly dividend, if annualized, represents an annual dividend of $0.24 per share, or a dividend yield of 7.5% (based on the closing stock price on November 11, 2015 of $3.19 per share). The company expects that 2015 dividends will be considered a return of capital for federal income tax purposes.
- The company appointed Thomas W. Knaup and Allan J. Rimland to the Board of Directors.
- Of the 38 properties the company owns, operates or manages, 36 facilities have been transferred to third-party operators, or are under management agreements with indefinite terms. The transfer of operations of two Oklahoma facilities is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter.
"Expanding our portfolio of properties is a key aspect of our plan for growth," stated Bill McBride, AdCare's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We recently executed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire our first property post-transition. We believe that the pending acquisition, if completed, will increase our geographic diversification with the addition of a skilled nursing facility in the highly-attractive Florida market. By simultaneously leasing this Tampa-Bay area property to one of our existing, high-quality operators, we will deploy capital in a relatively low-risk manner to immediately increase cash flow. We continue to expect this transaction to close in the first quarter of 2016, while our efforts to identify additional acquisition opportunities also continue. We have developed and are carefully evaluating a strong and growing pipeline of attractive opportunities. Our goal is to pursue the acquisition of additional facilities that would be a strategic fit to our business and accretive to cash flow to enhance returns to our shareholders. We believe the opportunities are plentiful and afford us the luxury of being disciplined in our approach and selective in the properties we consider."
"At the same time, we remain on schedule to transition the two remaining Oklahoma facilities before year-end," continued McBride. "Our commitment to returning capital to our shareholders also continues with the Board declaring the third consecutive cash dividend on our common stock of $0.06 per share, which represents a 9.1% increase over the $0.055 per share amount declared at the end of the second quarter."
2015 Dividends
- On March 31, 2015, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock.
- On June 30, 2015, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.055 per share of common stock.
- On September 29, 2015, the Board of Directors again increased the dividend, declaring a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of common stock.
The most recent quarterly dividend, if annualized, would represent an annual dividend of $0.24 per share, or a dividend yield of 7.5% (based on the closing stock price on November 11, 2015 of $3.19 per share).
Based on the company's projected current and accumulated negative earnings and profits (E&P) tax position, the company expects cash dividends paid to common and preferred stockholders for 2015 (and until such time that the company may have positive current or accumulated E&P) should be treated as a return of capital to stockholders to the extent available for federal income tax purposes. Investors should consult their tax advisors.
Transition Summary
The company has entered into agreements for all 40 of the healthcare facilities it owned, operated or managed before the transition commenced.
- Thirty-six facilities have transferred operations to third-party operators or are under management contracts with an indefinite term.
- The company expects to transition operations of two facilities in Oklahoma to a third-party operator during the fourth quarter of 2015, subject to receipt of state regulatory approvals.
- One facility in Arkansas and one facility in Oklahoma have been sold.
The company's variable interest entity ("VIE") is subject to an asset purchase agreement that provides for the sale of an Alabama facility held by the VIE to a third party. The agreement provides for a closing on or before November 30, 2015. The sale is subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence, the receipt of required licenses and other state regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
Post-transition Financial Guidance
Once operations for the remaining two properties have been transitioned to third-party operators, the company expects:
- Annual revenue between $31.0 and $31.8 million;
- Annual rent expense of approximately $8.6 million;
- Annual general and administrative expense between $5.0 and $5.3 million, includes $1.3 of stock-based compensation;
- Annual net interest expense between $7.1 and $7.2 million;
- Annual preferred dividends of approximately $6.3 million; and
- Annual Adjusted FFO per share between $0.25 and $0.30.
This guidance assumes an outstanding diluted share count of approximately 19.9 million shares and excludes effects of any acquisitions, including the healthcare facility in Florida currently under a non-binding letter of intent.
(See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information" below for the definition of FFO and Adjusted FFO, both non-GAAP financial measures, as well as an important discussion about the use of these measures and their reconciliation to GAAP net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure).

Important Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal law. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as "believes," "expects," "plans," "intends," "anticipates" and variations of such words or similar expressions, but their absence does not mean that the statement is not forward-looking. Statements in this press release that are forward-looking include, among other things, statements regarding the company's transition to a healthcare facilities holding and leasing company, statements regarding the transfer of operations to third-party operators, statements regarding the acquisition of the skilled nursing facility in the Tampa Bay area, statements regarding the acquisition pipeline, statements regarding dividends and statements regarding the company's future financial condition or results of operations. Such forward-looking statements reflect management's beliefs and assumptions and are based upon information currently available to management and involve known and unknown risks, results, performance or achievements of AdCare, which may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Such factors are identified in the public filings made by AdCare with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including AdCare's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. There is no assurance that such factors or other factors will not affect the accuracy of such forward-looking statements. Except where required by law, AdCare undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
For purposes of the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulations, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the company, or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable financial measure so calculated and presented.
"Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations" is a measure of operating performance that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. The company defines "Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations" as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), loss on extinguishment of debt and other non-routine adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by, or used in, operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
The company believes Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is useful to investors in evaluating the company's performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons:
- It is helpful in identifying trends in the company's day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the company's day-to-day operations;
- It provides an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and
- It provides data that assists management to determine whether or not adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.
Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("Adjusted FFO") are also measures of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. The company calculates and reports FFO in accordance with the definition and interpretive guidelines issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), and consequently, FFO is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations attributed to common stockholders, adjusted for the effects of asset dispositions and certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization and impairments on real estate assets. Adjusted FFO is calculated as FFO adjusted for the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation and other non-routine adjustments. The company believes FFO and Adjusted FFO provide enhanced measures of the operating performance of the Company's core portfolio. The Company's computation of Adjusted FFO is not comparable to the NAREIT definition of FFO or to similar measures reported by many REITs, but the company believes that is appropriate measure for this company.
The company believes that FFO and Adjusted FFO are important supplemental measures of its operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The term FFO was designed by the real estate industry to address this issue. FFO described herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO of real estate investment trusts that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from the company.
The company uses FFO and Adjusted FFO among the criteria to measure the operating performance of its business. The company further believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments on real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO and Adjusted FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between the company and many REITs. The company offers these measures to assist the users of its financial statements in analyzing its operating performance and not as measures of liquidity or cash flow. FFO and Adjusted FFO are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as measures of liquidity, alternatives to net income or indicators of any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in the company's securities should not rely on this measure as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.
