U.S. Physical Therapy, Inc. ("USPH" or the “Company”) (NYSE: USPH), a national operator of outpatient physical therapy clinics and provider of industrial injury prevention services, today reported results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021 (“2021 Second Quarter” and “2021 Six Months”, respectively).
HIGHLIGHTS
SUMMARY OF 2021 SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS RESULTS
For the 2021 Second Quarter, USPH’s Operating Results was $12.4 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, an increase of 30.5% as compared to $9.5 million (inclusive of Relief Funds), or $0.74 per diluted share, for the 2020 Second Quarter. Operating Results per diluted share for the 2021 Second Quarter was also higher than the $0.81 per diluted share for the pre-pandemic 2019 Second Quarter by $0.15, or 18.5%. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 (“2021 Six Months”), USPH’s Operating Results was $20.6 million, or $1.60 per diluted share, an increase of 54.0%, as compared to $13.4 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (“2020 Six Months”). Operating Results per diluted share for the 2021 Six Months was also higher than the $1.47 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (“2019 Six Months) by $0.13, or 8.8%. Operating Results, a non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) measure, equals net income attributable to USPH diluted shareholders per the consolidated statements of income less gain on sale of partnership interests and clinics plus charges incurred for clinic closure costs and expenses related to CFO transition, all net of taxes. Also, Operating Results earnings per diluted share excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact. See tables on pages 15 and 16.
For the 2021 Second Quarter, USPH’s net income attributable to its diluted shareholders was $12.4 million, as compared to $10.2 million for the 2020 Second Quarter and $14.6 million for the 2019 Second Quarter, which includes a $5.8 million gain on the sale of the Company’s interest in a physical therapy partnership on June 30, 2019. For the 2021 Six Months, USPH’s net income attributable to its diluted shareholders was $20.6 million, as compared to $11.2 million for the 2020 Six Months and $23.0 million for the 2019 Six Months. Inclusive of the charge or credit for revaluation of non-controlling interest, net of taxes, used to compute diluted earnings per diluted share in accordance with GAAP, the amount is $10.5 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the 2021 Second Quarter as compared to $12.7 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, for the 2020 Second Quarter, and $0.85 per diluted share for the 2019 Second Quarter. Inclusive of the charge or credit for revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of taxes, used to compute diluted earnings per diluted share in accordance with GAAP, the amount is $13.3 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, for the 2021 Six Months as compared to $15.3 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, for the 2020 Six Months, and $15.8 million or $1.24 per diluted share for the 2019 Six Months. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of taxes, is not included in net income but charged directly to retained earnings; however, the charge or credit for this change is included in the earnings per basic and diluted share calculation. See the schedules on pages 15 and 16 for the computation of earnings per diluted share. In 2020, the valuation of redeemable non-controlling interests decreased due to the results associated with the pandemic, therefore resulting in a credit to retained earnings. In 2021 and 2019, the valuations increased therefore there was a charge to retained earnings.
As previously disclosed in a series of filings with the SEC and further described in detail in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of 2020 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s results were negatively impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the 2020. For 2021 periods as compared to 2020 periods, the increase in revenues and expenses are largely due to the Company returning to pre-pandemic volumes.

Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program (“MAAPP Funds”)
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government approved the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The CARES Act allowed for qualified healthcare providers to receive advanced payments under the MAAPP Funds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under this program, healthcare providers could choose to receive advanced payments for future Medicare services provided. The Company applied for and received approval from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) in April 2020. The Company recorded the $14.1 million in advance payments received as a liability. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company repaid the MAAPP Funds of $14.1 million rather than applying them to future services performed.
Relief Funds
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted. The CARES Act provided additional waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 pandemic, including $100.0 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund, also referred to as the Provider Relief Fund, to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the coronavirus, and for reimbursing eligible health care providers for lost revenues and health care related expenses that are attributable to COVID-19.
Through December 31, 2020, the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries received approximately $13.5 million of payments under the CARES Act (“Relief Funds”). Under the Company’s accounting policy, these payments were recorded as Other income – Relief Funds. These funds are not required to be repaid upon attestation and compliance with certain terms and conditions, which could change materially based on evolving grant compliance provisions and guidance provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Currently, the Company can attest and comply with the terms and conditions. The Company will continue to monitor the evolving guidelines and may record adjustments as additional information is released. There were no Relief Funds received in the 2021 Six Months.
Other Financial Measures
For the 2021 Second Quarter, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA was $21.8 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 14.5%, compared to $19.0 million for the 2020 Second Quarter, inclusive of Relief Funds and an increase of $2.7 million, or 14.1%, compared to $19.1 million for the 2019 Second Quarter. For the 2021 Six Months, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA was $37.4 million compared to $27.0 million for the 2020 Six Months inclusive of Relief Funds, and $34.7 million for the 2019 Six Months. See definition, explanation and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA in the schedule on pages 15 and 16.
Acquisition in Second Quarter 2021
As previously reported, the Company acquired a 65% interest in an eight-clinic physical therapy practice at the end of the 2021 Second Quarter with the practice founder retaining 35%. The purchase price was approximately $10.3 million, of which $9.0 million was paid in cash, $1.0 million is payable based on certain criteria and $0.3 million is in a note payable. The business generates $7.3 million in annual revenue and has approximately 65,000 annual patient visits. The Company’s strategy is to continue acquiring multi-clinic outpatient physical therapy practices, to develop outpatient physical therapy clinics as satellites in existing partnerships and to continue acquiring companies that provide industrial injury prevention services.
Quarterly Dividend
In response to the Company’s strong performance thus far in 2021 and confidence in its future performance, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the Company’s quarterly dividend on August 3, 2021, from $0.35 per share to $0.38 per share, an increase of 8.6%. The Board of Directors subsequently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share which will be paid on September 17, 2021 to shareholders of record as of August 20, 2021.
Management Revises 2021 Earnings Guidance
Management currently expects the Company’s Operating Results for 2021 to be in the range of $39.4 million to $40.6 million, or $3.05 to $3.15 per diluted share. The increase in the guidance range is attributable to the Company’s strong performance for the 2021 Second Quarter, the impact of the acquisition closed in the 2021 Second Quarter, and confidence in the sustainability of the Company’s performance through the remainder of 2021.
This earnings range is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 27.0%. Please note that the earnings guidance represents projected Operating Results from existing operations and excludes future acquisitions. The 2021 earnings guidance range excludes expenses associated with the previously-announced retirement and replacement of one of the Company’s co-Chief Operating Officers. The annual guidance figures will not be updated unless there is a material development that causes management to believe that Operating Results will be significantly outside the given range.
Management’s Comments
Chris Reading, Chief Executive Officer, said, “Throughout this last year and a half our partners, directors and clinical staff have done a truly exemplary job providing excellent care in a very challenging environment. As evidenced by our record visits per clinic per day numbers this quarter, our patients and referral sources continue to seek us out for care. I remain very grateful for our entire team’s efforts through this COVID-19 pandemic. It hasn’t been easy, but throughout our organization across our many partnerships and in every support department, our people have truly risen to the challenge.”
Carey Hendrickson, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Our balance sheet remains in a very solid position and our record-high volumes are resulting in outstanding cash generation. We are pleased with the excellent results generated by our team in the first half of 2021, and we are confident in the Company’s future performance as signaled by the raising of our full year 2021 guidance range for the second time this year and the interim increase in our quarterly dividend rate.”

U. S. PHYSICAL THERAPY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
OPERATING RESULTS AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
(unaudited)
The following tables provide detail of the diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes providing Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA to investors is useful information for comparing the Company's period-to-period results.
Operating Results, a non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) measure, equals net income attributable to USPH diluted shareholders per the consolidated statements of income less gain on sale of partnership interests and clinics plus charges incurred for clinic closure costs and expenses related to CFO transition, all net of taxes. The earnings per share from Operating Results also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of tax, is included in the earnings per basic and diluted share calculation, although it is not included in net income but charged directly to retained earnings.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity-based awards compensation expense and derecognition of goodwill related to clinic closures. Management believes reporting Adjusted EBITDA is useful information for investors in comparing the Company’s period-to-period results as well as comparing with similar businesses which report adjusted EBITDA as defined by their company.
Management uses Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA, which eliminates certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as one the principal measures to evaluate and monitor financial performance period over period. Management believes that Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA is useful information for investors to use in comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have different equity structures.
Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.
