Certain metrics, including those expressed on an adjusted basis, are Non-GAAP financial measures (See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation tables further below).
Second Quarter 2018 Highlights (all percentage changes compare Q2 2018 to Q2 2017 unless noted):
• | Net patient service operating revenues increased 16.8% to $217.2 million; |
• | Net loss attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. was $18.0 million as compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in Q2 2017; |
• | Adjusted EBITDA less noncontrolling interests (“Adjusted EBITDA-NCI”) was $31.5 million as compared to $27.4 million in Q2 2017; |
• | Adjusted net income attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. was $6.9 million, or $0.20 per share, for Q2 2018; |
• | Total dialysis treatments increased 5.6%, of which 4.5% was non-acquired growth. Normalized total treatment growth was 6.3% and normalized non-acquired growth was 5.3%; and |
• | As of June 30, 2018, the Company operated 233 outpatient dialysis clinics serving approximately 16,000 patients. |
Joseph (Joe) Carlucci, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are very pleased with the Company’s second quarter 2018 performance. We executed well with our business development program by opening five de novo clinics and signing three additional new deals during the second quarter of 2018. Our opening schedule continues to be weighted to the second half of 2018, and we continue to have strong visibility into these future openings due to our signed pipeline of 26 clinics as of June 30, 2018. Our normalized treatment growth was 6.3% during the second quarter of 2018, and this rate of growth was essentially in-line with our expectations. As a result of our second half 2018 openings, we continue to expect normalized treatment growth to improve in subsequent quarters of 2018. Our second quarter 2018 revenue growth was favorably impacted by the new CMS coverage policy for Calcimimetics, as well as broader adoption of coverage policies by other payors for these pharmaceuticals. Importantly, on a volume basis, our commercial payor mix remained stable with that of the first quarter of 2018.”
“During the second quarter of 2018, we were able to sustain the more efficient cost structure that was established through our 2017 operating initiatives, while building on that success sequentially from the first quarter of 2018 due to greater progress with the lower-cost erythropoietin stimulating agent (ESA), Mircera, which we introduced as a new alternative for prescribing physicians last year. As we look forward, we continue to believe that our success will be driven by our differentiated physician partnership model, which remains underpinned by our Core Values
1
and validated through strong quality metrics, outstanding patient satisfaction rates and industry-leading physician satisfaction rates,” continued Carlucci.
Financial and operating highlights include:
Revenue: Patient service operating revenues for the second quarter of 2018 were $217.2 million, an increase of 16.8% as compared to $186.0 million for the prior-year period, primarily due to treatment growth and reimbursement of certain pharmaceuticals under the Medicare ESRD PPS Transitional Drug Add-on Payment Adjustment, which became effective on January 1, 2018.
Treatment Volume: Total dialysis treatments for the second quarter of 2018 were 572,929, representing an increase of 5.6% over the second quarter of 2017. Non-acquired treatment growth was 4.5%, and acquired treatment growth was 1.1% for the second quarter of 2018. Normalized for clinic sales, Q2 2018 total treatment growth was 6.3% and non-acquired treatment growth was 5.3% as compared to Q2 2017.
Clinic Activity: As of June 30, 2018, the Company provided services at 233 outpatient dialysis clinics serving 16,018 patients. During the second quarter of 2018, we opened five de novo clinics. As of June 30, 2018, we had 26 signed clinics scheduled to open in the future.

General and administrative expenses include $9.5 million of Modification Expense and $0.8 million in severance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Certain Legal Matters: On August 1, 2018, we executed a Settlement Agreement with affiliates of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (“United”) to resolve all outstanding litigation between the companies. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will make total settlement payments of $32.0 million in five annual installments. A first installment in the amount of $10.0 million was made on August 1, 2018. In connection with the $32.0 million settlement, the Company recognized the $29.6 million present value of the settlement during the second quarter of 2018, which was included as an expense in Certain legal matters on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Company also recognized an additional $2.9 million of expense within Certain legal matters during the second quarter of 2018 primarily related to the United matter.
Cash Flow: Cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter of 2018 was $37.5 million as compared to $35.8 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the second quarter of 2018 was $20.0 million as compared to $17.1 million in the prior-year period. Total capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2018 were $8.6 million as compared to $7.6 million in the prior-year period. Capital expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2018 included $1.9 million for maintenance and $6.6 million for expansions and new clinic development.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $58.5 million as compared to $52.4 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $25.1 million as compared to $14.5 million in the prior-year period. Total capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $18.4 million as compared to $14.1 million in the prior-year period. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included $4.9 million for maintenance and $13.5 million for expansions and new clinic development.
Balance Sheet: At June 30, 2018, the Company’s balance sheet included consolidated cash of $69.4 million and consolidated debt of $556.6 million, including the current portion of long-term debt. Excluding clinic-level debt not guaranteed by the Company and clinic-level cash not owned by the Company, Adjusted owned net debt (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) was $459.6 million at June 30, 2018, as compared to $459.5 million at December 31, 2017. Adjusted owned net debt to last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA-NCI leverage ratio was 4.1x at June 30, 2018, an improvement of 0.3x from December 31, 2017. As of June 30, 2018, net patient accounts receivable was $91.5 million, and days sales outstanding (“DSO”) for the period was 38 days as compared to 40 days as of March 31, 2018.
2018 Outlook for Adjusted EBITDA-NCI:
The Company is reiterating its guidance for 2018 Adjusted EBITDA-NCI to be in a range of $105 million to $111 million.
3
The expense recognized by the Company during the second quarter of 2018 representing the present value of the settlement with United described above does not affect the Company's expected 2018 Adjusted EBITDA-NCI guidance because the expenses relating to the United litigation are added back in calculating Adjusted EBITDA-NCI.
The Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of our Non-GAAP outlook to the corresponding GAAP information because the GAAP measures that we exclude from our Non-GAAP outlook are not available without unreasonable effort on a forward-looking basis due to their unpredictability, high variability, complexity and low visibility. These excluded GAAP measures include noncontrolling interests, interest expense, income taxes, and other charges. We expect the variability of these charges to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
Please see the “Forward-Looking Statements” section of this release for a discussion of certain risks to our outlook.

American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
(dollars in thousands)
We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI to track our performance. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income before income taxes and other non-income based tax, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for stock-based compensation and associated payroll taxes, loss on early extinguishment of debt, transaction-related costs, certain legal matters costs, executive and management severance costs, income tax receivable agreement income and expense, and gain on sale of assets. “Adjusted EBITDA-NCI” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI provide information useful for evaluating our business and a further understanding of the Company's results of operations from management's perspective. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because Adjusted EBITDA excludes the results of actions that are outside the operational control of management, but can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We believe Adjusted EBITDA-NCI is helpful in highlighting the amount of Adjusted EBITDA that is available to us after reflecting the interests of our joint venture partners. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI are not measures of operating performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operations, or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be indicative of historical operating results, and we do not mean for these items to be predictive of future results of operations or cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these items in isolation, or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI:
• | do not include stock-based compensation expense, and beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2017, do not include associated payroll taxes; |
• | do not include transaction-related costs; |
• | do not include depreciation and amortization—because construction and operation of our dialysis clinics requires significant capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization are a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits; |
• | do not include interest expense—as we have borrowed money for general corporate purposes, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits and cash flows; |
• | do not include income tax receivable agreement income and expense; |
• | do not include loss on early extinguishment of debt; |
• | do not include costs related to certain legal matters; |
• | do not include executive and management severance costs; |
• | do not include income tax expense or benefit and other non-income based taxes; and |
• | do not reflect gain on sale of assets. |
In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not adjusted for the portion of earnings that we distribute to our joint venture partners.
You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI as alternatives to income from operations or net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of our operating performance, or as alternatives to cash provided by operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. This presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA-NCI may not be
12
directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, since not all companies use identical calculations.
We use Adjusted net income attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. because it is a useful measure to evaluate our performance by excluding the impact of certain items that we believe are not related to our normal business operations and/or are a result of changes in our liabilities from period to period. See the notes to the tables below for further explanation of the exclusion of certain items. By excluding these items, we believe Adjusted net income allows us and investors to evaluate our net income on a more consistent basis. “Adjusted net income attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc.” is defined as Net income (loss) attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. plus or minus, as applicable, stock-based compensation due to option modifications and other transactions at the time of the Company’s initial public offering, certain legal matter costs, transaction-related costs, income tax receivable agreement income/expense, tax valuation allowance and other tax adjustments, and accounting changes in fair value of non-controlling interest puts, net of taxes. We use the Adjusted weighted average number of diluted shares to calculate Adjusted net income attributable to American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. per share. For the first and second quarter of 2017, the Adjusted weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding is calculated using the treasury method as if certain unvested in-the-money options subject to a contingency are treated as being vested to provide investors with a calculation of the fully-diluted number of shares assuming certain pre-IPO options vested prior to their actual vesting on April 21, 2017.
We use Adjusted cash provided (used) by operating activities less distributions to NCI because it is a useful measure to evaluate the cash flow that is available to the Company for investment in property, plant and equipment, debt service, growth and other general corporate purposes. “Adjusted cash provided (used) by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests” is defined as cash provided by operating activities plus transaction-related expenses less distributions to noncontrolling interests.
We use Adjusted owned net debt because it is a useful metric to evaluate the Company’s share of interests in the cash on our consolidated balance sheet and the debt of the Company. “Adjusted owned net debt” is defined as debt (other than clinic-level debt) plus clinic-level debt guaranteed by our wholly owned subsidiaries of American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. less cash (other than clinic-level cash) less the Company’s pro rata interest in clinic-level cash. “Owned net leverage” is defined as the ratio of Owned net debt to our trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA-NCI.
