BUSINESS AND LEGISLATIVE OVERVIEW

• There is a fundamental shift underway that is rapidly transforming and prioritizing the delivery of high-quality care to the home. This acceleration in demand is providing a resounding case for long-term growth and optimism and should drive our organic growth as well as the future contributions from acquisitions and partnerships for many years to come.

OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW

KEY METRICS

• Higher labor costs and capacity constraints caused by the lingering impact of clinicians on quarantine caused significant headwinds for Q4.

▪ The percentage of clinicians on quarantine increased to 3.5% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 3.0% at the end of the third quarter. The elevated percentage resulted in an estimated unfavorable impact to census of approximately 2,500, revenue of $13.8 million and EBITDA of $4.1 million.

FOURTH QUARTER 2021 AND FIRST QUARTER 2022 TRENDS

• The headwinds we faced in late Q4 2021 and early Q1 2022 were primarily related to reduced capacity to service demand due to COVID variants and labor availability

o After declining throughout November and into early December, our percentage of clinicians spiked until mid-January 2022 to the highest levels we have experienced during the pandemic

• In Home Health, our clinicians on quarantine reached a high of 6.5% on January 17, 2022 and declined to 0.6% the week of February 19, 2022 which is the lowest quarantine level since July 2021.

• In Hospice, our clinicians on quarantine reached a high of 5.5% the week of January 10, 2022, and declined to 1.7% on February 19, 2022 which is the lowest quarantine level since July 2021.

• Labor costs and availability remain a challenge for LHC Group and for the industry

o Labor supply remains tight, but we have been able to decrease the use of nursing contract labor for contract visits sequentially in home health compared to Q3 2021

▪ 3.8% of home health total nursing visits in Q4 2021

▪ 2.4% of home health total nursing visits in Q4 2020

▪ 4.0% of home health total nursing visits in Q3 2021

o Labor costs have stabilized and were slightly down sequentially from Q3 2021 to Q4 2021

RECRUITING AND RETENTION

• Recruiting and retention are top priorities, and we continue to experience net positive hiring across all service lines

o We have had four consecutive quarters of hiring a record number of employees

o Voluntary turnover continues to be well below industry averages

▪ 17.0% voluntary turnover for the year ended December 31, 2021 for FTE’s company wide

▪ 18.7% voluntary turnover for the year ended December 31, 2021, for full time home health and Hospice clinical staff

o Q4 2021 produced the most hires compared to any other Q4 in company history

o 2021 total year hiring produced over 20% more new hires compared to any other year

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

Q4 RECAP

• Q4 2021 adjusted results were within our guide range as communicated on November 4, 2021, as part of the 3Q ’21 earnings call.

• Net Service Revenue of $583.4 million was up 9.6% year-over-year and up 3.2% sequentially

o Home Health, Hospice and Hospital segments were all firmly up on both a year-over-year and sequential quarter basis

4

o Q4 revenues in all three segments benefitted from recent acquisitions, including a full quarter of Heart of Hospice and two months of HCA/Brookdale

o Sequential growth despite $11.7 million seasonal MSSP benefit in 3Q ’21.  Excluding MSSP, sequential quarter revenues were up +$29.6M

• Adjusted EBITDA of $61.6 million was down ($6.8M) year-over-year.

o Year-over-year EBITDA reduction driven largely by ongoing labor cost pressures, owing to the persisting shortage of nursing talent, which not only creates wage pressures, but also creates a greater reliance on contract labor

▪ On a positive note, contract labor utilization and rates moderated in the Home Health segment sequentially compared to Q3 2021

▪ In both the Home Health and Hospice segment, cost trends were flat to slightly down sequentially compared to Q3 2021

▪ LHC has made significant strides to leverage indirect costs, integrate newly acquired businesses, and adjust COVID pay policies, all of which has tempered the impact of higher direct wages, positioning the company for stronger cost management going forward

o Sequential Quarter EBITDA reduction driven largely by the seasonal benefit of MSSP ($11.7 million) recognized in 3Q ’21.  Excluding MSSP, sequential quarter EBITDA was up +$4.5M on $29.6M of higher revenue.  

• Adjusted EPS of $1.26 was down ($0.14) year-over-year, driven by the labor dynamics highlighted above, but also due to:

o Higher year-over-year interest expense of +$2.7 million or -$.06 EPS, owing to the M&A capital deployed in 2021, coupled with approximately $83M of stock repurchases executed in December 2021.

o Sequential Quarter EPS reduction driven largely by the seasonal benefit of MSSP ($0.27 per diluted share) recognized in 3Q ’21.  Excluding MSSP, sequential quarter EPS was up $0.08 per diluted share.  

HOME HEALTH SEGMENT

• Net Service Revenue of $394.5M, up 3.1% versus 4Q 2020, driven by non-Medicare admission and census growth and HCA/Brookdale acquired volume

• EBITDA Margin of 11.7% down from 14.3% in 4Q 2020, due largely to higher cost of service, coupled with higher G&A related to sales investments and immature G&A related to the HCA/Brookdale acquisition

• Home Health employed visiting staff base wage cost per visit increased +5.5% versus 4Q 2020 and was flat sequentially compared to Q3 2021

o Contract Labor Cost per Visit +13.0% year-over-year, but down (30) bps sequentially compared to Q3 2021

▪ Contract nursing utilization = 3.8% of nursing visits in 4Q ’21 versus 2.4% in 4Q ’20 and 4.0% in 3Q ‘21

▪ Contract nursing CPV +12.8% versus 4Q ’20, but down (4.9%) versus 3Q ‘21

5

o Direct Cost per Visit was up 6.8% year-over-year, but down (1.0%) sequentially compared to Q3 2021

o Indirect costs, benefitting from operating leverage, were down nearly 9% on both a year-over-year and sequential quarter basis, helping temper the direct cost pressures

o When considered on a pro forma basis, forward leading labor initiatives, COVID policy changes, and non-recurring acquisition related expenses, further helped to offset the direct cost pressures highlighted above.  These actions position the service line for improved cost performance going forward

HOSPICE SEGMENT

• Net Service Revenue of $102.0M, up 63.5% versus 4Q 2020, driven by the acquisitions of Heart of Hospice, which closed on 9/1/21, and HCA/Brookdale, which closed on 11/1/21, resulting in census growth year-over-year of +62.6%.  Revenue per patient day increased +2.7%, but was largely offset by a higher Implicit Price Concession reserve

• Hospice EBITDA Margins decreased 250 bps year-over-year and 80 bps sequentially, largely driven by higher cost of service, coupled with higher G&A related to sales investments and immature acquired G&A

• Hospice employed visiting staff base wage cost per day increased +1.2% versus last year’s 4Q and was up a more modest 50 bps sequentially compared to Q3 2021

o Contract Labor utilization and rates at unprecedented levels for Hospice

▪ Contract nursing utilization at 2.2% of visits, up from 0.3% in 4Q ’20 and up from 1.7% in 3Q ‘21

▪ Contract nursing CPV +122% year-over-year and up +7.9% sequentially

o Direct Cost per Day was up 1.1% year-over-year, but flat sequentially

PERSONAL CARE BUSINESS SEGMENT

• Personal Care business continues to deal with labor supply headwinds, but at a moderating rate, with Billable hours down 5.6% year-over-year and down 2.1% sequentially

o Q4 2021 = 1,779,058

o Q4 2020 = 1,884,411

o Q3 2021 = 1,817,711

• Adjusted Free Cash Flow in 4Q of $56.0M and $160.5M YTD

• Net debt to Adjusted TTM EBITDA at 2.45x as of December 31, 2021

• Medicare Advance Payment recoveries were $69.8M in 4Q and $211.5M Year-to-Date

• DSO up 2.9 days versus last year and up modestly sequentially, driven by acquired A/R

o Q4 2021 = 55.0 days

o Q3 2021 = 54.2 days
