CEO Remarks
Commenting on the results, Kelly Gill, Diversicare’s CEO, stated, “I take great pride in what we have accomplished as a team, not only in terms of our strong first quarter results, but also in our broader efforts in repositioning the company. Strong revenue growth in the quarter was coupled with our second consecutive quarter of solid adjusted EBITDA. These results came directly out of our efforts to upgrade our portfolio and drive efficiency, while continuing to focus on and improve our metrics.”
“Additionally, I want to highlight our G&A expense as a percentage of revenue has declined to 6.1% in the first quarter of 2014 compared to 7.9% for the same period in 2013,” Mr. Gill continued. “We continue to see other key financial metrics move in the right direction, including occupancy, skilled mix, and average daily reimbursement.”
Mr. Gill concluded, “I believe we are now realizing the benefits of our strategic plan. With a bulk of the strategic investments behind us, our management team in place, and greater financial flexibility, we remain focused on growing the portfolio, efficiently integrating new nursing centers and bringing their operations up to the Diversicare standards."

Patient Revenues
Patient revenues were $83.4 million in 2014 and $63.3 million in 2013. This increase is primarily attributable to the acquisition of new nursing centers during the period. The following table summarizes the revenue increases attributable to our portfolio growth (in thousands):
Period Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
2014 | 2013 | Change | |||||||||
Same-store revenue | $ | 64,708 | $ | 63,280 | $ | 1,428 | |||||
2013 acquisition revenue | 17,682 | — | 17,682 | ||||||||
2014 acquisition revenue | 974 | — | 974 | ||||||||
Total revenue | $ | 83,364 | $ | 63,280 | 20,084 | ||||||
The overall increase in revenue of $20.1 million is primarily attributable to revenue contributions from acquisition activity in 2013 of $17.7 million, as well as the contribution from the newly leased nursing center in Huntsville, Alabama. This nursing center contributed $1.0 million in revenues since the Company assumed operations on March 1, 2014.
The same-store revenues increased by $1.4 million in 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. Overall same-store Medicaid census increased 3.95% in 2014 resulting in same-store revenue increase of $1.3 million compared to 2013. Managed Care average daily census increased 5.35% resulting in a revenue increase at our same-store nursing centers of $0.2 million in revenue. The increases in revenue associated with our census increases were partially offset by a decrease in Medicare census resulting in a revenue decrease of $0.6 million in same-store nursing centers as compared to 2013.
The average Medicaid rate per patient day at same-store nursing centers for 2014 increased compared to 2013, resulting in an increase in revenue of $0.6 million. This average rate per day for Medicaid patients is the result of rate increases in certain states and increasing patient acuity levels. The average Medicare rate per patient day for same-store nursing centers decreased for 2014 compared to 2013, resulting in a decrease in revenue of $0.2 million.
Expenses
Operating expense increased in the first quarter of 2014 to $66.7 million as compared to $50.9 million in the first quarter of 2013, driven primarily by the $14.8 million increase in operating costs attributable to the nursing center operations acquired in 2013, as well as $0.6 million of operating expense associated with the nursing center operations assumed in the first quarter of 2014. The following table summarizes the expense increases attributable to our portfolio growth (in thousands):
Period Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
2014 | 2013 | Change | |||||||||
Same-store operating expense | $ | 51,249 | $ | 50,875 | $ | 374 | |||||
2013 acquisition expense | 14,837 | — | 14,837 | ||||||||
2014 acquisition expense | 641 | — | 641 | ||||||||
Total expense | $ | 66,727 | $ | 50,875 | $ | 15,852 | |||||
Operating expense decreased as a percentage of revenue at 80.0% for the first quarter of 2014 as compared to 80.4% for the first quarter of 2013. The largest component of operating expenses is wages. Considering the aforementioned addition of the new centers, we experienced an increase to $38.1 million in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to $31.0 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $7.1 million, or 23.0%. While wages increased overall, wages as a percentage of revenue decreased in the first quarter of 2014 to 45.7% as compared to 48.9% in the first quarter of 2013, a decrease of 3.2%.
Bad debt expense increased approximately $0.6 million in 2014 compared to 2013 driven significantly by the growth in Medicaid patients undergoing the initial qualification process.
Professional liability expense was $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2014 compared to $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.6 million. We were engaged in 61 professional liability lawsuits as of March 31, 2014, compared to 47 as of December 31, 2013. Our quarterly cash expenditures for professional liability costs of continuing operations were $1.1 million and $2.1 million for 2014 and 2013, respectively. Professional liability expense and cash expenditures fluctuate from year to year based respectively on the results of our third-party professional liability actuarial studies and on the costs incurred in defending and settling existing claims.
General and administrative expense was $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.1 million. As a percent of revenues, general and administrative expenses declined to 6.1% in 2014 as compared to 7.9% in 2013.
Interest expense was $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2014 and $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.4 million. The increase was primarily attributable to higher debt balances in 2014 as a result of the amended Mortgage Loan, which increased the balance of outstanding debt as a result of the acquisition of the Kansas centers, as well as the outstanding balance of the amended Revolver as a result of the on-going Medicare and Medicaid change in ownership certification process.
Receivables
Our net receivables balance increased $6.2 million to $41.3 million as of March 31, 2014, from $35.1 million as of December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to $10.3 million in unbilled receivables as of March 31, 2014, compared to $5.1 million at December 31, 2013. These receivables are associated with our newly acquired nursing centers that are currently undergoing the Medicare and Medicaid change in ownership certification process.
