HEALTHWAYS REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS

NETWORK SOLUTIONS BUSINESS EARNS $0.54 PER DILUTED SHARE

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 9, 2016) – Healthways (NASDAQ: HWAY) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Second-Quarter 2016 Financial Highlights

·
Revenue growth from continuing operations (Network Solutions business) of 10.2% to $125.0 million from $113.4 million for the second quarter of 2015;
·
Net income from continuing operations of $20.0 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, compared with $10.8 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015. Net income for the second quarter of 2016 reflected an effective income tax rate of 0.0% as a result of tax benefits from the loss from discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2016, discussed below. For comparison, had the net income for the second quarter of 2016 been subject to a normalized tax rate of 40%, net income from continuing operations would have been $12.0 million or $0.32 per diluted share; and
·
Losses from discontinued operations, net of income tax expense, of $195.5 million, or $5.25 per diluted share, primarily due to the second-quarter operating loss incurred by the Total Population Health Services and Emerging Solutions businesses and the Company's estimate of the impairment loss resulting from the classification of the assets of these businesses as held for sale.

"We completed the sale of our Total Population Health Services (TPHS) business to Sharecare as expected on July 31st," said Donato Tramuto, Healthways Chief Executive Officer. "Our second-quarter operating results provide a much clearer picture of the strength of the Company's Network Solutions business.  Additionally, we have good visibility to consistent quarterly performance for the rest of this year and,

as previously stated, we expect the Company's financial profile by the end of 2016 to include annualized revenue greater than $500 million with EBITDA margins in excess of 20%."

Alfred Lumsdaine, Healthways Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, added, "As our financial results indicate, during the second quarter we incurred a loss of $195.5 million from discontinued operations primarily resulting from the estimate of an impairment loss associated with the classification of assets as held for sale to Sharecare, as well as the second-quarter operating loss incurred by those businesses. The final transaction costs resulting from the sale will be reflected in our third quarter financial statements.

"As it relates to our continuing operations, the second-quarter results included revenue of $125.0 million and EBITDA of $26.0 million (see page 9 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures) or a margin of 20.8%. We expect that the performance for our continuing operations over the next two quarters will be similar within a modest range to that of the first two quarters of 2016, with the exception of the costs to separate the businesses described below.  Depreciation and amortization and interest expense are expected to be relatively consistent as a percentage of revenue as we move through the balance of 2016.

"During the second half of 2016, particularly during the third quarter, we expect to incur additional costs related to the sale of the Population Health Services business.  We would expect $35 million to $45 million in additional charges related to discontinued operations, which includes the previously disclosed $25 million payment to Sharecare at the closing of the transaction.  In addition, we expect to incur certain costs, in a range of $4 million to $6 million, required to separate the businesses.  These costs relate primarily to the separation of IT and physical infrastructure as well as corporate rebranding expenses.

"We have previously discussed the need for the reorganization of our corporate support infrastructure. Beginning in 2017, we expect this reorganization to produce annualized cost savings of approximately $14 million to $16 million. We anticipate reinvesting some of these savings, perhaps as much as half, back into business initiatives that will help drive increased growth. We expect that the reorganization of our corporate support infrastructure will be complete by the end of 2016 and will result in restructuring costs in a range of $5 million to $7 million. We believe that the previously mentioned annualized savings, along with the completion of transaction and separation expenses, will drive our EBITDA margin in 2017 to be solidly in excess of 20%, consistent with where it has been for many years in the Network Solutions business."

On August 4, 2016, Healthways completed an amended and extended credit agreement with its lenders.  Under the amended and extended credit agreement terms, the EBITDA impact from the discontinued operations was removed from the Company's restrictive covenants. The Company's ratio of total debt to trailing 12 months EBITDA at June 30, 2016 as calculated under the credit facility then in place was approximately 3.2.  Based upon the amended and extended agreement, this ratio would have been approximately 2.0.  The Company expects that significantly improved EBITDA generation and cash flow will offset transaction related payments and costs over the balance of the year, and further projects to end 2016 with funded debt at approximately $230 million to $240 million.

Mr. Tramuto concluded, "Our Network Solutions business has an attractive financial profile and a long history of profitable growth, sustainable market leadership positions, and significant near and long-term growth opportunities.  With continued strong execution of our Network Solutions businesses, as well as anticipated investments, we are well positioned to return Healthways to a path of consistent, predictable, and sustainably profitable growth."

(1) EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results and guidance on the same basis as that used by management.  You should not consider EBITDA from continuing operations in isolation or as a substitute for net (loss) income including non-controlling interest determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
