• Adjusted diluted EPS grows 15.4% year over year to $0.30; Diluted EPS grows 16.0% to $0.29

Downers Grove, Illinois (August 3, 2015) – Addus HomeCare Corporation (NASDAQ: ADUS), a comprehensive provider of home and community-based services that are primarily personal in nature, provided in the home and focused on the dual eligible population, today announced its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015.

For the second quarter, net service revenues increased 11.5% to $85.8 million from $77.0 million for the second quarter of 2014. Net income was $3.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015 compared with $2.7 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share increased 15.4% to $0.30 for the second quarter of 2015 from $0.26 for the second quarter of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA increased 16.1% to $6.9 million for the second quarter of 2015 from $5.9 million for the second quarter of 2014. (See page 7 for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP and GAAP financial measures.)

For the first six months of 2015, net service revenues rose 12.8% to $167.7 million from $148.6 million for the first six months of 2014. Net income increased to $5.4 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the first half of 2015 from $5.1 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2014. Adjusted earnings per diluted share increased 8.2% to $0.53 for the first half of 2015 from $0.49 for the first half of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA increased 18.4% to $12.3 million for the first six months of 2015 from $10.4 million for the first six months of 2014.

“Our team produced another good quarter of quality care, growth and financial performance,” commented Mark Heaney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Addus HomeCare. “We generated 11.5% growth in revenues and expanded margins despite the still slower than normal - but improved - pace of referrals in Illinois related to the state’s ongoing transition to managed care. Our sequential-quarter same-store census for Illinois increased 1.6% for the second quarter compared to a 0.2% sequential-quarter decline in the first quarter. We expect referrals in Illinois, and other states transitioning care to MCOs, to continue to be uneven, but we remain confident the overall transition of care to MCOs by the states represents a substantial long-term growth opportunity for Addus.

“We experienced higher costs during the second quarter related to the ongoing installation of our new human resources and payroll information system. These costs were primarily related to expanding the functionality of the system and increased training. The additional costs in the quarter totaled $0.02 per diluted share.”

The Company’s revenue growth for the second quarter reflected 8.8% growth in average billable census compared to the second quarter of 2014. Average billable hours per census per month increased 1.6% to 50.3 for the latest quarter, while revenues per billable hour increased 0.9% to $17.12. Gross margin

increased to 27.6% for the latest quarter from 26.7% for the second quarter last year, primarily due to the margin profiles of our acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 8.0% for the second quarter of 2015 compared with 7.7% for the same quarter in 2014.

Addus had $42.0 million in cash at the end of the second quarter of 2015, no bank debt and $40 million of availability under its revolving credit facility. Net cash provided by operating activities was $35.9 million for the second quarter of 2015 compared with $12.3 million for the second quarter last year.

Heaney concluded, “For the second half of 2015, we are focused on driving organic growth, improving the performance of our acquired businesses and cost management. We have exited certain underperforming locations that we expect will reduce second-half revenue by approximately $4.5 to $5.5 million, while having a positive EPS impact. We also continue to evaluate additional accretive acquisitions and work toward the closing of our previously announced definitive agreement to acquire South Shore Home Health Services, Inc., a New York state-licensed home care services agency with 2014 revenues of approximately $47 million.

“We believe Addus is the personal care company best positioned to partner with MCOs, due to our consistently good care, our continuing investment in technology, our scale and broad geographic footprint, and our acquisition strategy focused on states transitioning, or likely to transition, care to MCOs in the nearer term. The demographics of our industry, combined with the opportunity for improved health outcomes and value-based reimbursement are compelling for Addus. We believe that, combined, they expand our potential for long-term growth and increased stockholder value.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The information provided in this release includes adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as diluted earnings per share, adjusted for M&A expenses, incremental SOX 404 compliance expense and tax benefit from worker opportunity tax credits. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, M&A expense and stock-based compensation expense. The Company has provided, in the financial statement tables included in this press release, a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share to diluted earnings per share and a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, in each case, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors, management and others in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, to provide investors with insight and consistency in the Company’s financial reporting and to present a basis for comparison of the Company’s business operations among periods, and to facilitate comparison with the results of the Company’s peers.
