Reflecting Continued Execution of Transformation Initiatives and Strong Demand for Physical Therapy

Improved Provider Productivity and Retention 

Provides 2023 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA¹ Guidance

BOLINGBROOK, Ill., Aug. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ATI Physical Therapy, Inc. (NYSE: ATIP) ("ATI" or the "Company"), a nationally recognized outpatient physical therapy provider in the United States, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

"We delivered sequential improvement in nearly every key performance metric in the second quarter, underscoring the solid execution of our transformation initiatives and strong demand for physical therapy services," said Sharon Vitti, Chief Executive Officer of ATI. "We provided outstanding care and service to the highest number of patients daily since the pandemic began. Moreover, payors are increasingly recognizing the value of high-quality physical therapy with reimbursement increases. Our progress reflects the ongoing commitment of our front-line teams, operations support, and leaders in driving operational excellence, creating exceptional experiences for patients, and delivering on our strategic vision."

Ms. Vitti added, "While the labor market in our industry continues to be constrained, we are experiencing improved retention. Under the leadership of our Chief People Officer, we have focused on the ATI Way and our unique culture, which prioritizes exceptional employee engagement and provides a compelling value proposition to our team members. We are excited for the significant value creation opportunities ahead for ATI and our stakeholders."

Joe Jordan, Chief Financial Officer of ATI, said, "Our initiatives to increase profitability and operational efficiency are generating solid progress in financial results. Based on our roadmap for the remainder of the year, we are guiding full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to be between $30 million and $36 million."

Second Quarter 2023 Results

Supplemental tables of key performance metrics for the first quarter of 2021 through the second quarter of 2023 are presented after the financial statements at the end of this press release. Commentary on performance results in the second quarter of 2023 is as follows:

• Net revenue was $172.3 million compared to $166.9 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $163.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 3.2% quarter-over-quarter and 5.5% year-over-year. The increases were primarily due to adept execution by the Company's clinicians to ensure access for patients, as well as strong demand for ATI's physical therapy ("PT") and adjacent services.
  
  
• Net patient revenue was $156.9 million compared to $150.8 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $148.5 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 4.1% quarter-over-quarter and 5.7% year-over-year. See below for discussion of drivers to net patient revenue (i.e., patient visits and Rate per Visit).
  
  
• Other revenue was $15.4 million compared to $16.2 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $14.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 4.8% quarter-over-quarter and an increase of 4.1% year-over-year. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily due to seasonality in the Sports Medicine business, and the year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher MSA revenue.
  
  
• Visits per Day ("VPD") were 23,412 compared to 22,701 in the first quarter of 2023 and 22,403 in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 3.1% quarter-over-quarter and 4.5% year-over-year.
  
  VPD per Clinic was 25.7 compared to 25.0 in the first quarter of 2023 and 24.2 in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 0.7 visits quarter-over-quarter and 1.5 visits year-over-year. These increases were primarily driven by the Company's continued focus on operational excellence across its clinics.
  
  
• Rate per Visit ("RPV") was $104.74 compared to $103.76 in the first quarter of 2023 and $103.57 in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 0.9% quarter-over-quarter and 1.1% year-over-year. The sequential improvement in RPV was primarily driven by favorable contracting in certain key markets, comprising mostly payor fee schedule increases as well as bonus payments for positive performance under a small number of value-based compensation arrangements.
  
  
• Salaries and related costs were $95.3 million compared to $90.7 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $89.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 5.1% quarter-over-quarter and 6.4% year-over-year. The increases were primarily due to higher support staff costs from added personnel to allow our clinicians to focus on access to care, bonuses and stock-based awards for our care providers, and wage inflation.
  
  PT salaries and related costs per visit were $54.81 compared to $52.98 in the first quarter of 2023 and $53.64 in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 3.5% quarter-over-quarter and 2.2% year-over-year. The increases were due to higher labor costs per clinical FTE and a reconfigured clinic support structure, partially offset by higher labor productivity of 9.5 VPD per clinical FTE compared to 9.4 in the first quarter of 2023 and 9.1 in the second quarter of 2022.
  
  
• Rent, clinic supplies, contract labor and other was $50.4 million compared to $52.9 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $50.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 4.6% quarter-over-quarter and flat year-over-year.
  
  PT rent, clinic supplies, contract labor and other per clinic was $53,866 compared to $56,388 in the first quarter of 2023 and $53,017 in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 4.4% quarter-over-quarter and an increase of 1.6% year-over-year. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily due to absence of spend with the annual National Leadership Event held in the first quarter, partially offset by higher contractor spend. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher contractor spend.
  
  
• Provision for doubtful accounts was $2.4 million compared to $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2022. PT provision as a percentage of net patient revenue was 1.5% compared to 2.4% in the second quarter of 2022, with the improvement driven by ongoing operational initiatives and deliberate efforts to increase collections.
  
  
• Selling, general and administrative expenses were $36.6 million compared to $30.6 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $31.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 19.5% quarter-over-quarter and 15.0% year-over-year. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to higher one-time transaction costs, higher employee incentive awards and absence of a CARES Act wage credit. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher one-time transaction costs and higher employee incentive awards, partially offset by lower legal settlement and severance costs.
  
  
• Interest expense during the quarter was $16.7 million, compared to $13.9 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2022. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to a lower interest rate hedge benefit, and the year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher interest rates and interest on revolver facility borrowings.
  
  
• Income tax expense (benefit) was $0.1 million, unchanged from the first quarter of 2023, and compared to $(13.0) million in the second quarter of 2022.
  
  
• Net loss was $21.7 million compared to $25.2 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $135.7 million in the second quarter of 2022.
  
  
• Fully diluted Class A common stock loss per share was $17.74 compared to $7.70 in the first quarter of 2023 and $34.49 in the second quarter of 2022, adjusted on a retrospective basis to reflect the reverse stock split completed in June 2023.
  
  
• Adjusted EBITDA² was $9.3 million compared to $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2022. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily driven by increased revenue due to a higher number of visits and a higher rate per visit, better AR collections resulting in a lower provision for doubtful accounts, and lower clinical events spend as the first quarter included spend for the annual National Leadership Event. The quarter-over-quarter improvement was partially offset by higher salaries and related costs. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher revenue and the impact of improved AR collections, partially offset by higher cost of services.
  
  Adjusted EBITDA¹ margin was 5.4% compared to 2.9% in the first quarter of 2023 and 3.3% in the second quarter of 2022.
  
  
• Net (decrease) increase in cash was $(45.5) million year-to-date compared to $31.1 million in the first six months of 2022.
  
  Operating cash use was $5.3 million year-to-date compared to $32.7 million in the first six months of 2022, reflecting the conclusion of the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program ("MAAPP") repayments in the third quarter of 2022 and other timing differences between accrual and cash basis, specifically lower investment in prepaid expenses and other current assets and an increase in operating lease liabilities. Cash repaid in connection with MAAPP under the CARES Act was zero year-to-date 2023 compared to $10.8 million in the first six months of 2022.
  
  Investing cash use was $10.1 million year-to-date, with ten new clinics opened, compared to $17.6 million in the first six months of 2022 and 22 new clinics opened.
  
  Financing cash use was $30.0 million year-to-date, which included revolver repayments of $24.8 million. Financing cash generated was $81.4 million in the first six months of 2022, which included refinancing the Company's first lien term loan with a new credit agreement and issuing Series A preferred stock with detachable warrants, resulting in approximately $77 million net proceeds to the balance sheet after payment of transaction fees.
  
  
• As of June 30, 2023, total liquidity was $57.7 million comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $37.7 million and available revolving credit facility of $20.0 million.
  
  
• With the transaction that closed on June 15, 2023, the Company may access an additional $25 million through issuance of new second lien PIK convertible notes plus Series B preferred stock subject to certain conditions as outlined in the second lien Note Purchase Agreement.

Additionally, ATI opened six clinics and closed four clinics during the quarter in connection with the Company's ongoing footprint optimization initiative. The Company had 911 clinics at end of the second quarter and continues to execute on optimizing its geographic footprint and clinic-level economics.

Transaction to Enhance Liquidity and Financial Flexibility Completed

As previously announced, ATI completed a transaction on June 15, 2023 (the "2023 Debt Restructuring"), to enhance the Company's liquidity, as previously described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2023, and as approved by the Company's stockholders at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held on June 13, 2023

With the 2023 Debt Restructuring, ATI obtained a $25 million delayed draw term loan in the form of new second lien PIK convertible notes plus Series B preferred stock, exchanged $100 million of first lien term loan into new second lien PIK convertible notes plus Series B preferred stock, and remained in compliance with the covenants under its first lien credit agreement, among other terms.

2023 Guidance

For full year 2023, ATI expects net revenue to be in the range of $680 million to $695 million, which represents approximately 7% to 9% year-over-year growth. The Company anticipates it will continue increasing patient visits steadily through the second half of 2023 as it executes on its people, operations and commercial strategies. ATI expects Adjusted EBITDA³ in 2023 to be in the range of $30 million to $36 million.

As ATI continues optimizing its geographic footprint in 2023, the Company expects to close underperforming clinics and consolidate locations in certain markets, while opening new clinics in markets where it sees incremental growth opportunities. This is expected to result in a net reduction of approximately 20 clinics for full year 2023.

Investors should also review those factors discussed in the Company' Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, under the heading "Risk Factors," and other documents filed, or to be filed, by ATI with the SEC. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can the Company assess the impact of all such risk factors on the business of the Company or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligations to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date they are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

In addition, statements of belief and similar statements reflect the beliefs and opinions of the Company on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to the Company, as applicable, as of the date of this communication, and while the Company believes such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and statements should not be read to indicate that the Company has conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and you are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and aid understanding of the Company's business performance, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, namely "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA margin." ATI believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (i.e., Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Revenue) assist investors and analysts in comparing the Company's operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of ATI's core operating performance.

Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which ATI operates and capital investments. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to establish discretionary annual incentive compensation and to compare ATI's performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management supplements GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or the ratio of net income (loss) to net revenue as a measure of financial performance, cash flows provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these measures are not intended to be a measure of cash available for management's discretionary use as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. The presentations of these measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.

Please see "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. We are unable to provide a reconciliation between forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to its comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort, due to the high difficulty and impracticability of predicting certain amounts required by GAAP with a reasonable degree of accuracy by the date of this release.
