Five Star Quality Care, Inc. Reports Certain Third Quarter 2013 Financial Data

Newton, MA (November 12, 2013).  Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (NYSE: FVE) today announced certain preliminary financial data and information for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

As described below, at this time we are not reporting income from continuing operations, income (loss) from discontinued operations, or net income because we recently discovered non-cash errors in our historical accounting accruals for income taxes in certain periods.

Third Quarter 2013 Financial Highlights:

·Total revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 increased 9.3% to $324.7 million from $297.1 million for the same period in 2012.  Our senior living revenues and management fee revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 increased 1.1% to $272.7 million from $269.9 million for the same period in 2012.

·Earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA from continuing operations, for the third quarter of 2013 was $9.3 million compared to $12.1 million for the same period in 2012.  EBITDA from continuing operations excluding certain items was $10.0 million and $12.1 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively. A reconciliation of income from continuing operations before income taxes determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to EBITDA from continuing operations and EBITDA from continuing operations excluding certain items for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 appears later in this press release.

·Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the third quarter of 2013 was $1.6 million, compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 2012.  Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the third quarter of 2013 included a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $599,000.

Third Quarter 2013 Operating Highlights (continuing operations):

·Occupancy at our owned and leased senior living communities for the third quarter of 2013 was 85.9% compared to 86.2% for the same period in 2012.

·The percentage of revenues derived from residents’ private resources at our owned and leased senior living communities for the third quarter of 2013 increased 50 basis points to 77.1% from 76.6% for the same period in 2012.

Year to Date Financial Highlights:

·Total revenues from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased 9.9% to $972.0 million from $884.8 million for the same period in 2012.  Our senior living revenues and management fee revenues from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased 1.0% to $815.8 million from $808.0 million for the same period in 2012.

·Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $7.2 million compared to $15.6 million for the same period in 2012.  Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $599,000.  Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 included a gain on settlement of litigation of $3.4 million.

Accounting for Income Taxes:

In connection with the preparation of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, our management identified errors relating to our accounting for income taxes in prior periods that resulted primarily from the accounting for our deferred income taxes.  These items are non-cash and the net effect of correcting the errors is expected to increase our net deferred tax assets and to increase our benefit for income taxes.  Our management is currently evaluating our accounting for these items, and is working with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, to determine what changes, if any, to our historical or future accounting may be appropriate.  We do not expect to file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 when due; instead, we intend to file a notification of late filing on Form 12b-25, which form and related rule provide for a five day extension to file.  We can provide no assurances that we will file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q by the expiration of that five day extension period.  We have not concluded if we will be required to restate any previously issued financial statements or whether any such financial statements should no longer be relied upon nor have we made a determination as to the effect of these matters on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting.  For these reasons, at this time we are not reporting our income from continuing operations, income (loss) from discontinued operations, or net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Other Highlights:

In August 2013, we began managing a senior living community in Georgia with 93 living units.  Also in October 2013, we began managing two senior living communities in Georgia with a combined total of 153 living units and a senior living community in Tennessee with 60 living units.  In November 2013, we began managing a senior living community in Wisconsin with 68 living units.  These five communities are owned by Senior Housing Properties Trust, or SNH, in a taxable subsidiary.

In June 2013, we agreed to offer for sale 11 senior living communities with 753 living units. Seven of these communities with 578 living units are skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs, and four of these communities with 175 living units are assisted living communities.  Ten of these communities are owned by and leased from SNH and one community is owned by us.  In August 2013, SNH completed the sale of one of these communities, a SNF with 112 living units.  As a result of this sale, our annual minimum rent payable to SNH decreased by $255,000 in accordance with the terms of our applicable lease with SNH.  The remaining 10 communities identified in June 2013 are currently being offered for sale.  Also, one additional assisted living community with 102 living units which is leased by us from SNH that we agreed to offer for sale prior to June 2013 continues to be offered for sale.  As of September 30, 2013, the results of operations for all these communities which either are currently being offered for sale (11 communities) or have been recently sold (one community) are classified as discontinued operations, and, in aggregate, the

2

majority of revenues generated from these communities came from government funded programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid.

In August 2013, we and SNH entered into an agreement with certain unrelated third parties, pursuant to which SNH agreed to sell two rehabilitation hospitals that we lease and where the majority of revenues are paid by Medicare.  In connection with this sale, we agreed to transfer the operations of these hospitals and several leased in-patient and out-patient clinics that are affiliated with these hospitals.  Upon completion of the sale and transfer of operations, our annual rent payable to SNH and others will decrease by approximately $11.5 million and we currently expect to realize cash proceeds of between $6.5 and $7.5 million by retaining our working capital investment in these hospitals.  The transfer of the operations of these hospitals and related operations is subject to various closing conditions, including the new operator’s obtaining appropriate licenses and regulatory approvals.  We currently expect that this transaction may be completed by mid-2014.  During the third quarter of 2013, we classified our rehabilitation hospital business as discontinued operations.

In July 2013, we redeemed all $24.9 million principal amount of our 3.75% convertible senior notes outstanding at a redemption price equal to the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.  We funded this redemption with cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.  In connection with this redemption, in the third quarter of 2013 we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $599,000, net, for unamortized issuance costs.

Conference Call:

Earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA from continuing operations, and EBITDA from continuing operations excluding certain items, or collectively, Non-GAAP Financial Measures, are not financial measures determined according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.  We consider these Non-GAAP Financial Measures to be meaningful disclosures because we believe that the presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures may help investors to gain a better understanding of changes in our operating results, and may also help investors who wish to make comparisons between us and other companies on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are used by management to evaluate our financial performance and for comparing our performance over time and to the performance of our 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 from continuing operations, net income, 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 income from continuing operations before income taxes, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  As further noted above, we are reporting income from continuing operations before income taxes, rather than income from continuing operations, and reconciling EBITDA from continuing operations and EBITDA from continuing operations excluding certain items to income from continuing operations before income taxes.
