ORGANIZATION Amedisys, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Amedisys" or "the Company"), is a leading multi-state provider of home health care nursing services. The Company operates fifty home care nursing offices, one ambulatory surgery center, and one corporate office in the southern and southeastern United States. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at March 31, 2001, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the entire year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements and related notes in the Company's Form 10-K. 2. RESTATEMENT The Company has restated the Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 due to a net revenue overstatement for the first quarter of 2001. The Medicare reimbursement changes effective October 1, 2000 required substantial changes to the Company's software application, both from an operational and an accounting perspective, including the recording of revenue related to patients receiving therapy services. Under the changed reimbursement system, if a patient, upon initial assessment by the nurse, is expected to require ten or more therapy visits in an episode, the expected reimbursement for that episode is increased ("therapy add-on"). If, upon completion of the episode, the expected therapy utilization of ten or more visits was not met, the provider is not entitled to the therapy add-on. The Company's software did not detect differences between the initial nurse's assessment that called for ten or more visits and the therapist's subsequent evaluation which indicated that fewer than ten visits were necessary. The Company has modified its software and has changed certain processes to detect any discrepancies in assessed therapy need and to more closely monitor the patient's progress as it relates to scheduled therapy services. In addition to the revenue restatement, the Company has also reversed $900,000 in incentive compensation for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The following table presents the impact of the restatement (in 000's, except per share data):
Quarter ended March 31, 2001 ---------------------------- Amount Previously Reported* As Adjusted ---------- ----------- Statement of Operations: Service Revenue $ 26,171 $ 22,171 Gross Margin 16,405 12,405 Salaries and Benefits 7,543 6,643 Total general and administrative expenses 13,184 12,284 Operating income (loss) 36 (2,564) Net (loss) before income taxes, discontinued operations, and extraordinary item 2,691 (409) Income tax expense 267 -- Net Income 2,217 (616) Basic income (loss) per common share 0.40 (0.11) Balance Sheet: Accounts Receivable, net 9,754 3,154 Current Assets 23,888 17,288 Total Assets 48,063 41,463 Retained Earnings (Deficit) (13,781) (19,214) Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity 48,063 41,463
* As reported in the Company's financial statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q dated May 11, 2001. 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION Prior to the implementation of the Medicare Prospective Payment System ("PPS") on October 1, 2000 reimbursement for home health care services to patients covered by the Medicare program was based on reimbursement of allowable costs subject to certain limits. Final reimbursement was determined after submission of annual cost reports and audits thereof by the fiscal intermediaries. Under PPS, the Company is paid by Medicare based on episodes of care. An episode of care is defined as a length of care up to sixty days with multiple continuous episodes allowed. A standard episode payment has been established by the Medicare Program at $2,115 per episode, to be adjusted by a case mix adjuster consisting of eighty (80) home health resource groups ("HHRG") and the applicable geographic wage index. The standard episode payment may be subject to further individual adjustments due to low utilization, intervening events and other factors. The episode payment will be made to providers regardless of the cost to provide care. The services covered by the episode payment include all disciplines of care, in addition to medical supplies, within the scope of the home health benefit. Revenue is recognized for visits during the earnings period at the expected payment amount. 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stock by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is not presented as stock options, stock warrants and convertible securities outstanding (equivalent to 2,085,191 and 3,366,711 shares of common stock at March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively) during the periods presented were not dilutive. 5. MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT AND REFORM The Company derived approximately 89% of its revenues from continuing operations from the Medicare system for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 92% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. 6 7 As disclosed in Note 3, on June 28, 2000, HCFA issued the final rules for PPS, which were effective for all Medicare-certified home health agencies on October 1, 2000. The final regulations establish payments based on episodes of care. An episode is defined as a length of care up to sixty days with multiple continuous episodes allowed under the rule. A standard episode payment has been established at $2,115 per episode for federal fiscal year 2001, to be adjusted by a case mix adjuster consisting of eighty (80) home health resource groups ("HHRG") and the applicable geographic wage index. The standard episode payment may be subject to further individual adjustments due to low utilization, intervening events and other factors. Providers are allowed to make a request for anticipated payment at the start of care equal to 60% of the expected payment for the initial episode and 50% for each subsequent episode. The remaining balance due to the provider is paid following the submission of the final claim at the end of the episode. In contrast to the cost-based reimbursement system whereby providers' reimbursement was limited, among other things, to their actual costs, episode payments are made to providers regardless of the cost to provide care, except with regard to certain outlier provisions. As a result, home health agencies have the opportunity to be profitable under this system. In December 2000, Congress passed the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act ("BIPA"), which provides additional funding to healthcare providers. BIPA provided for the following: (i) a one-year delay in applying the budgeted 15% reduction on payment limits, (ii) the restoration of a full home health market basket update for episodes ended on or after April 1, 2001, and before October 1, 2001 resulting in an expected increase in revenues of 2.2%, (iii) a 10% increase, effective April 1, 2001 and extending for a period of twenty four months, for home health services provided in a rural area, and (iv) a one-time payment equal to two-months of periodic interim payments ("PIP"). 6. ACQUISITION Effective March 1, 2001, the Company acquired from Seton Health Corporation of North Alabama certain assets and liabilities of Seton Home Health Services, Inc. ("Seton") associated with their operations in Mobile and Fairhope, Alabama. The assets acquired consisted primarily of all furniture, fixtures, equipment (except computer equipment and printers) and leasehold improvements; supplies; inventory; lists of present and former patients and mailing lists; vendor lists; employee records; telephone numbers and listings; intangibles and other rights and privileges; leasehold interest in the locations; goodwill and going concern; rights under certain agreements; rights under all contracts including capital leases and non-competition agreements; licenses and permits relating to ownership, development and operations; and rights under Medicare Provider Agreements. The liabilities assumed consisted of accrued but unused vacation and obligations under capital and operating leases. In consideration for the acquired assets and liabilities, the Company paid $440,000 cash, which represents a purchase price of $475,000 less the value of accrued vacation obligations. 7. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS During 1999, the Company changed its strategy from providing a variety of alternate site provider health care services to becoming a leader in home health care nursing services. Pursuant to this strategy, the Company launched a restructuring plan to divest its non-home health care nursing divisions. The Company sold five of its six surgery centers and sold or closed its four infusion locations during 1999 and 2000. The Company has one remaining outpatient surgery center yet to sell. Generally, a plan to dispose of discontinued operations must be carried out over a period not to exceed one year in order to continue to qualify for discontinued operation accounting treatment. This remaining surgery center has been involved in litigation outside of the Company's control, which prevented the Company from completing a timely disposition. For this reason, the Company has continued to reflect the outpatient surgery division as discontinued operations. The Company expects that the remaining surgery center will be sold in 2001. 7 8 Summarized financial information for the discontinued operations is as follows (in 000's):
For the three months ended March 31 -------------------------- 2001 2000 ---------- ------------ Outpatient Surgery Division: Service Revenue $ 538 $ 847 Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations before Provision for Income Taxes (74) 394 Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations Net of Income Taxes (74) 394 Infusion Therapy Division: Service Revenue $ -- $ 2,030 (Loss) from Discontinued Operations before Provision for Income Taxes (133) (324) (Loss) from Discontinued Operations Net of Income Taxes (133) (324) Total Discontinued Operations: Service Revenue $ 538 $ 2,877 Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations before Provision for Income Taxes (207) 70 Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations Net of Income Taxes (207) 70
Included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 are the following assets and liabilities relating to the discontinued operations (in 000's):
March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ---------- ------------ Cash $ 220 $ 20 Accounts Receivable 461 510 Prepaid Expenses 11 13 Inventory and Other Current Assets 170 172 ---------- ------------ Current Assets Held for Sale $ 862 $ 715 ========== ============ Property $ 603 $ 681 Other Assets 8 8 ---------- ------------ Long-term Assets Held for Sale $ 611 $ 689 ========== ============

8. NOTES PAYABLE Notes payable as of March 31, 2001 consists primarily of an asset-based line of credit with availability, depending on collateral, of up to $25 million with National Century Financial Enterprises, Inc. ("NCFE") and borrowings under a revolving bank line of credit of up to $2.5 million. The $25 million asset-based line of credit, which expires December, 2003, is collateralized by eligible accounts receivable and as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, had an outstanding balance of $9,490,000 and $2,952,000, respectively. Eligible receivables are defined as receivables, exclusive of workers' compensation and self-pay, that are aged less than 181 days. The effective interest rate on this line of credit was 9.53% and 15.29% for the periods ended March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The revolving bank line of credit of $2.5 million bears interest at the Bank One Prime Floating Rate, which was 8.5% and 9.5% at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. At March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, there were no amounts drawn on the line of credit. 9. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consists primarily of a $9.7 million note payable to NPF Capital, a $1.1 million note payable to Merrill Lynch, $1 million in notes payable to individuals, a $900,000 note payable to CareSouth Home Health Services, Inc. ("CareSouth"), an $876,000 note payable to Winter Haven Hospital, and various other notes. The $9.7 million note to NPF Capital is payable over a three year term with interest only payments for a six month period ending June, 2001 and monthly payments of principal and interest of $387,000 for the remainder of the term. The Company makes monthly principal and interest payments of $25,000 on the $900,000 note to CareSouth, which is due July, 2003 and monthly principal and interest payments of $30,000 on the $876,000 note to Winter Haven Hospital. The notes payable to individuals of $1 million bear interest, payable monthly at 13%, with four equal monthly principal payments beginning in April, 2001. In connection with the issuance of the notes payable to the individuals, 20,000 warrants were also issued (exercise price of $4.00 per share). These warrants have not been recorded in the financial statements as the value has been deemed by management to be immaterial. The Company makes monthly principal and interest payments of $27,000 on the $1.1 million note to Merrill Lynch, which is secured by equipment located at one surgery center and is due in April, 2002. Due to the anticipated divestiture of the outpatient surgery division, this note is classified as Held for Sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 10. AMOUNTS DUE TO AND DUE FROM MEDICARE Prior to the implementation of PPS, the Company recorded Medicare revenues at the lower of actual costs, the per visit cost limit, or a per beneficiary cost limit on an individual provider basis in accordance with established guidelines. As of March 31, 2001, the Company estimates an aggregate payable to Medicare of $19 million resulting from interim cash receipts in excess of expected reimbursement. In the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2001, the amounts due to Medicare within one year of $15.4 million are netted against accounts receivable. The amount payable to Medicare in excess of one year of $3.6 million is shown as Long-term Medicare Liabilities. Of the $15.4 million netted against accounts receivable, $7.4 million is attributed to a provision in BIPA whereby a lump-sum 9 10 payment equal to two months of PIP was issued to providers. Upon completion of the annual cost reports, the Company will request extended repayment plans for these payments. There can be no assurances, however, that the extended repayment plans will be accepted. Also included in the $15.4 million is a $3.2 million overpayment relating to Alliance Home Health, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which filed for bankruptcy protection on September 29, 2000. 11. CAPITAL STOCK In accordance with the terms of conversion of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock as stated in the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Agreement, eight preferred shareholders converted a total of 360,000 preferred shares into 1,200,000 common shares during 2000. During the first quarter of 2001, two additional preferred shareholders converted a total of 20,000 preferred shares into 66,667 common shares. The conversion rate for the preferred shares was $3.33. 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Effective April 6, 2001, the Company acquired, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Amedisys Home Health, Inc. of Alabama, certain additional assets and liabilities of Seton Home Health Services, Inc. ("Seton") from Seton Health Corporation of North Alabama associated with their operations in Birmingham, Tuscaloosa, Anniston, Greensboro, and Reform, Alabama. The assets acquired consisted primarily of all furniture, fixtures, equipment (except computer equipment and printers) and leasehold improvements; supplies; inventory; lists of present and former patients and mailing lists; vendor lists; employee records; telephone numbers and listings; intangibles and other rights and privileges; leasehold interest in four of the five locations; goodwill and going concern; rights under certain agreements; rights under all contracts including capital leases and non-competition agreements; licenses and permits relating to ownership, development and operations; and rights under Medicare Provider Agreements. The liabilities assumed consisted of estimated accrued but unused vacation and obligations under capital and operating leases. In consideration for the acquired assets and liabilities, the Company paid $2,216,000 cash, which represents a purchase price of $2,325,000 less the estimated value of accrued vacation obligations. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto (the "Notes") appearing in Item 1 and the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2000, Notes, and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis as amended and restated in Form 10-K/A. 10 11 GENERAL Amedisys is a leading multi-regional provider of home health care nursing services. The Company operates fifty home care nursing offices, one ambulatory surgery center, and one corporate office in the southern and southeastern United States. During 1999, the Company changed its strategy from providing a variety of alternate site provider health care services to becoming a leader in home health care nursing services. Pursuant to this strategy, the Company launched a restructuring plan to divest its non-home health care nursing divisions. The Company sold five of its six surgery centers and sold or closed its four infusion locations during 1999 and 2000 and expects to divest the one remaining surgery center during 2001. The Company has systematically reduced its operating costs since 1998 in preparation for PPS. Significant cost reduction measures undertaken by the Company included the consolidation/closure of offices which overlapped service areas, converting its method of nurse pay to a variable or per visit rate rather than a fixed or salary system, utilizing economies of scale, and reducing corporate overhead when possible. Business functions that are not considered part of the core business have been outsourced and management levels have been streamlined. The Company has positioned its operations to be successful under PPS. The Company has implemented Disease State Management programs and clinical protocols as well as supporting technology to monitor and report outcome data, to standardize care, and to ensure quality outcomes. Using clinical managers to assess and track patient progress and highly skilled nurses to deliver care are also important components of the overall strategy. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company has restated the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2001 due to a net revenue overstatement for the first quarter of 2001 as discussed in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Revenues. Net revenues decreased $1,247,000 or 5% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. This decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease in patient visits of 111,251 or 35% from 319,484 for the first quarter of 2000 to 208,233 for the first quarter of 2001, offset by changes in the Medicare reimbursement system that were effective October 1, 2000. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues decreased 14% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. This decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease in patient visits of 111,251 or 35% from 319,484 for the first quarter of 2000 to 208,233 for the first quarter of 2001. Visits have decreased from the prior year period primarily due to the implementation of Disease State Management Programs ("DSM") during 2000. These DSM programs are diagnosis-specific treatment protocols implemented in every agency, which provide for standardized treatment plans for patients to reach a quality outcome in the most efficient manner possible. General and Administrative Expenses ("G&A"). G&A decreased $589,000 or 5% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. This decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease in incentive compensation expense of $623,000 and a decrease in corporate office salaries and benefits of $385,000, offset by a one-time write off of accounts receivable of $502,000. Other Income and Expenses. Other expenses, net decreased $16,000 or 3% from $546,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $530,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Discontinued Operations. Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, was $207,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to income of $70,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. As of March 31, 2001, the Company only has one remaining surgery center to divest whereas at March 31, 2000, the Company had three surgery centers and four infusion therapy locations reflected as discontinued operations. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company recorded operating losses and had negative cash flow for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the first three quarters of 2000, during which time its operations were primarily funded by the divestiture of certain non-core assets. The significant losses and negative cash flow from operations were largely attributable to the prior Medicare reimbursement system which was effective January 1, 1998 for the Company. In the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001, the Company reported positive cash flow and a decrease in operating losses, primarily as a result of the implementation of PPS on October 1, 2000. The Company expects positive cash flow from operations 11 12 will continue and the Company will be able to fund operations primarily from this source. For a description of Notes Payable and Long-term Debt, see Notes 8 and 9. For a discussion of Amounts Due Medicare, see Note 10. The Company's operating activities provided $2.1 million in cash during the three months ended March 31, 2001, whereas such activities provided $401,000 in cash during the three months ended March 31, 2000. Cash provided by operating activities in 2001 is primarily attributable to changes in assets and liabilities of $1.8 million, and net non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization of $924,000, offset by a net loss of ($616,000). Investing activities used $349,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, whereas such activities provided $131,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Cash used by investing activities in 2001 is primarily attributed to the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $379,000. Financing activities provided cash during 2001 of $3.5 million, whereas such activities used $690,000 during 2000. Cash provided by financing activities in 2001 is primarily attributed to borrowings on line of credit agreements of $6.5 million offset by payments on notes payable and capital leases of $218,000, cash used in purchase acquisitions of $440,000, and a decrease in long-term Medicare liabilities of $2.4 million. The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on its results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2001.
