Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $205.7 million and $389.0 million, or $0.95 and $1.80 per share, respectively, excluding debt refinancing charges.

Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $197.4 million and $394.3 million, or $0.92 and $1.84 per share, respectively, excluding a contingent earn-out obligation adjustment. In addition, adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2013 excluded a loss contingency reserve. Income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 including these items was $254.4 million and $271.3 million, or $1.18 and $1.26 per share, respectively.

Financial and operating highlights include:

  • Cash Flow: For the rolling twelve months ended June 30, 2014, operating cash flow was $1.769 billion and free cash flow was $1.350 billion. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, operating cash flow was $262 million and free cash flow was $165 million. For a definition of free cash flow see Note 4 to the reconciliations of non-GAAP measures.

  • Operating / Adjusted Operating Income: Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $484 million and $926 million, respectively. Adjusted operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $465 million and $932 million, respectively, excluding a contingent earn-out obligation. In addition, adjusted operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 excluded a pre-tax loss contingency reserve. Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 including these items was $522 million and $689 million, respectively.

HCP's operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2014, benefited from the recognition of net deferred revenues of approximately $26 million related to the maintenance of existing physician networks, of which $6 million was related to the first quarter of 2014 and the remaining $20 million was primarily related to 2013.

  • Adjusted Diluted Income from Continuing Operations Per Share: Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, excluding the amortization of intangible assets associated with acquisitions and debt refinancing charges, which net of tax impacts was $231 million and $439 million, respectively, and adjusted diluted income from continuing operations was $1.06 and $2.03 per share, respectively.

Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for the three months ended June 30, 2013, excluding the amortization of intangible assets associated with acquisitions, and a contingent earn-out obligation adjustment, which net of tax impacts was $222 million, and adjusted diluted income from continuing operations was $1.03 per share. In addition, adjusted income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as further adjusted to exclude a loss contingency reserve, which net of tax impacts was $443 million, and adjusted diluted income from continuing operations was $2.06 per share.

  • Volume: Total U.S. dialysis treatments for the second quarter of 2014 were 6,196,394, or 79,441 treatments per day, representing a per day increase of 5.6% over the second quarter of 2013. Non-acquired treatment growth and normalized non-acquired treatment growth in the quarter increased 5.0% over the second quarter of 2013.

The number of member months for which HCP provided capitated care during the second quarter of 2014 was approximately 2.5 million representing an increase of 11% as compared to the second quarter of 2013, inclusive of growth contributed from acquisitions.

  • Effective Tax Rate: Our effective tax rate was 35.7% and 36.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. This effective tax rate is impacted by the amount of third party owners' income attributable to non-tax paying entities. The effective tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. was 40.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

We still expect our 2014 effective tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. to be in the range of 40.0% to 41.0%.

  • Debt Transactions: As previously announced in June 2014, we entered into $5.5 billion of New Senior Secured Credit Facilities consisting of a $1.0 billion revolving line of credit, a $1.0 billion New Term Loan A and a $3.5 billion New Term Loan B. In addition, we issued $1.75 billion 5 1/8% Senior Notes due 2024. As a result, we received total proceeds of $6.25 billion and used a portion of the proceeds to pay-off all outstanding principal balances under our then existing Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to purchase or redeem all of our $775 million 6 3/8% Senior Notes due 2018 (6 3/8% Senior Notes), to pay fees and other expenses related to the refinancing, as well as for general corporate purposes.

As a result of these transactions, we recorded debt refinancing charges of $97.5 million that consist of the cash tender premiums, a redemption premium, the write-off of existing deferred financing costs, the write-off of certain new refinancing costs, other professional fees and $3.1 million of losses associated with the termination of several of our interest rate swap agreements.

  • Center Activity: As of June 30, 2014, we provided dialysis services to a total of approximately 174,000 patients at 2,203 outpatient dialysis centers, of which 2,119 centers are located in the United States and 84 centers are located in ten countries outside of the United States. During the second quarter of 2014, we opened a total of 22 new dialysis centers in the United States. We also acquired three dialysis centers and opened six new dialysis centers outside of the United States.

Outlook

  • We are updating our consolidated operating income guidance for 2014 to now be in the range of $1.755 billion to $1.840 billion. Our previous consolidated operating income guidance for 2014 was in the range of $1.725 billion to $1.840 billion.

  • We are also updating our operating income guidance for our dialysis services and related ancillary businesses including our corporate level expenses, which we refer to as Kidney Care, for 2014 to now be in the range of $1.550 billion to $1.600 billion. Our previous operating income guidance for Kidney Care for 2014 was in the range of $1.520 billion to $1.580 billion.

  • We are lowering the high end of our operating income guidance for HCP for 2014 to now be in the range of $205 million to $240 million. Our previous operating income guidance for HCP for 2014 was in the range of $205 million to $260 million.

  • We still expect our consolidated operating cash flow for 2014 to be in the range of $1.450 billion to $1.550 billion.

These projections and the underlying assumptions involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those described below, and actual results may vary significantly from these current projections. Our consolidated operating cash flow amounts for 2014 exclude any potential payment relating to the 2010 and 2011 U.S. Attorney Physician Relationship Investigations.

We will be holding a conference call to discuss our results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 on July 31, 2014 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The dial in number for the U.S. is (888) 950-9401 and for international is (517) 308-9354. A replay of the conference call will be available on DaVita's official web page, www.davitahealthcarepartners.com, for the following 30 days.

This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements related to our guidance and expectations for our 2014 consolidated operating income, our 2014 Kidney Care operating income, HCP's 2014 operating income, our 2014 consolidated operating cash flows and our 2014 effective tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. Factors that could impact future results include the uncertainties associated with the risk factors set forth in our SEC filings, including our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, our subsequent quarterly and annual reports and our current reports on Form 8-K. The forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these risks and uncertainties.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those risk factors in our SEC filings relating to:

  • the concentration of profits generated by higher-paying commercial payor plans for which there is continued downward pressure on average realized payment rates, and a reduction in the number of patients under such plans, which may result in the loss of revenues or patients,
  • a reduction in government payment rates under the Medicare End Stage Renal Disease program or other government-based programs,
  • the impact of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) 2014 Medicare Advantage benchmark structure,
  • risks arising from potential federal and/or state legislation that could have an adverse effect on our operations and profitability,
  • changes in pharmaceutical or anemia management practice patterns, payment policies, or pharmaceutical pricing,
  • legal compliance risks, including our continued compliance with complex government regulations and current or potential investigations by various government entities and related government or private-party proceedings, including risks relating to the resolution of the 2010 and 2011 U.S. Attorney Physician Relationship Investigations, such as restrictions on our business and operations required by a corporate integrity agreement and other settlement terms, and the financial impact thereof,
  • our ability to maintain contracts with physician medical directors, changing affiliation models for physicians, and the emergence of new models of care introduced by the government or private sector, that may erode our patient base and reimbursement rates,
  • our ability to complete acquisitions, mergers or dispositions that we might be considering or announce, or to integrate and successfully operate any business we may acquire or have acquired, including HCP, or to expand our operations and services to markets outside the United States,
  • the risk that we might invest material amounts of capital and incur significant costs in connection with the growth and development of our international operations, yet we might not be able to operate them profitably anytime soon, if at all,
  • risks arising from the use of accounting estimates, judgments and interpretations in our financial statements,
  • the risk that the cost of providing services under HCP's agreements may exceed our compensation,
  • the risk that reductions in reimbursement rates, including Medicare Advantage rates, and future regulations may negatively impact HCP's business, revenue and profitability,
  • the risk that HCP may not be able to successfully establish a presence in new geographic regions or successfully address competitive threats that could reduce its profitability,
  • the risk that a disruption in HCP's healthcare provider networks could have an adverse effect on HCP's business operations and profitability,
  • the risk that reductions in the quality ratings of health maintenance organization plan customers of HCP could have an adverse effect on HCP's business, or
  • the risk that health plans that acquire health maintenance organizations may not be willing to contract with HCP or may be willing to contract only on less favorable terms.

We base our forward-looking statements on information currently available to us at the time of this release, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying factors, new information, future events or otherwise.

This release contains non-GAAP financial measures. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the attached reconciliation schedules. For the reasons stated in the reconciliation schedules, we believe our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information for investors.

(1) These are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see attached reconciliation schedules.

(2) Consolidated percentages of revenues are comprised of the dialysis and related lab services business, HCP's business and other ancillary services and strategic initiatives. General and administrative expenses also includes other certain corporate support and related long-term incentive compensation.

(3) The reported balance sheet amount at June 30, 2014, excludes $17.5 million of debt discount associated with our New Term Loan B. In addition, the reported balance sheet amounts at March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2013, exclude $16.7 million and $19.6 million, respectively, of debt discounts associated with our then existing Term Loan B and Term Loan B-2.

(4) The Term Loan B is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Because actual LIBOR, for all periods presented above, was lower than this embedded LIBOR floor, the interest rate on the Term Loan B is set at its respective floor. At such time as the actual LIBOR-based variable component of our interest rate exceeds 0.75% on the Term Loan, we will then be subject to LIBOR-based interest rate volatility on the LIBOR variable component of our interest rate on all of the Term Loan B. However, we are limited to a maximum rate of 2.50% on $2.75 billion of outstanding principal debt on the Term Loan B as a result of interest rate cap agreements. The remaining $765 million outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan B is subject to LIBOR-based interest rate volatility above a floor of 0.75%.

Note 1: Calculation of the Leverage Ratio


Under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (Credit Agreement), the leverage ratio is defined as all funded debt plus the face amount of all letters of credit issued, minus cash and cash equivalents, divided by "Consolidated EBITDA". The leverage ratio determines the interest rate margin payable by the Company for its Term Loan A and revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement by establishing the margin over the base interest rate (LIBOR) that is applicable. The following leverage ratio was calculated using "Consolidated EBITDA" as defined in the Credit Agreement. The calculation below is based on the last twelve months of "Consolidated EBITDA", pro forma for routine acquisitions that occurred during the period. The Company's management believes the presentation of "Consolidated EBITDA" is useful to investors to enhance their understanding of the Company's leverage ratio under its Credit Agreement.

1. Income from continuing operations and diluted income from continuing operations per share attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. excluding debt refinancing charges, a contingent earn-out obligation adjustment and a loss contingency reserve, net of related tax.


We believe that income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. excluding debt refinancing charges, a contingent earn-out obligation adjustment and a loss contingency reserve, net of related tax, enhances a user's understanding of our normal income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. and diluted income from continuing operations per share attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. for these periods by providing a measure that is meaningful because it excludes unusual amounts related to the debt refinancing charges that resulted from the refinancing of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the redemption of the $775 million 6 3/8% Senior Notes, as well as the termination of certain interest rate swap agreements, an adjustment to HCP's contingent earn-out obligation and a loss contingency reserve related to the 2010 and 2011 U.S. Attorney Physician Relationship Investigations and accordingly, is comparable to prior periods and indicative of consistent income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. and diluted income from continuing operations per share attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc.

In addition, we have excluded amortization of intangible assets associated with acquisitions from our adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. and from our adjusted diluted income from continuing operations per share attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. as we believe this presentation enhances a user's understanding of our operating results for these periods by providing a different reflection of the Company's operating performance since it excludes the amortization of intangible assets that relate to the remeasurement of acquired intangible assets associated with our acquisitions to fair value, and accordingly is indicative of consistent income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. and diluted income from continuing operations per share attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc.

3. Effective Income Tax Rates


We believe that reporting the effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. as well as the adjusted effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc., excluding a contingent earn-out obligation adjustment, enhances an investor's understanding of DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc.'s effective income tax rate and DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc.'s adjusted effective income tax rate for the periods presented because it excludes noncontrolling owners' income that primarily relates to non-tax paying entities, and an unusual amount related to an adjustment to HCP's contingent earn-out obligation adjustment, and is meaningful to an investor to fully understand the related income tax effects on DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc.'s operating results. These are not measures under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the effective income tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP.


Effective income tax rate as compared to the effective income tax rate attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. is as follows:

4. Free cash flow


Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests and capital expenditures for routine maintenance and information technology. We believe free cash flow is a useful adjunct to cash flow from operating activities and other measurements under GAAP, since free cash flow is a meaningful measure of our ability to fund acquisition and development activities and meet our debt service requirements. In addition, free cash flow excluding distributions to noncontrolling interests provides an investor with an understanding of free cash flows that are attributable to DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. Free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity.

5. Total care dollars under management


In California, as a result of our managed care administrative services agreements with hospitals, HCP does not assume the direct financial risk for institutional (hospital) services in most cases, but is responsible for managing the care dollars associated with both the professional (physician) and institutional services being provided for the Per Member Per Month (PMPM) fee attributable to both professional and institutional services. In cases where HCP does not assume the direct financial risk, HCP recognizes the surplus of institutional revenue less institutional expense as HCP net revenue. In addition to revenues recognized for financial reporting purposes, HCP measures its total care dollars under management, which includes the PMPM fee payable to third parties for institutional (hospital) services where HCP manages the care provided to its members by the hospitals and other institutions, which are not included in GAAP revenues. HCP uses total care dollars under management as a supplement to GAAP revenues as it allows HCP to measure profit margins on a comparable basis across both the global capitation model (where HCP assumes the full financial risk for all services, including institutional services) and the risk sharing models (where HCP operates under managed care administrative services agreements where HCP does not assume the full risk). HCP believes that presenting amounts in this manner is useful because it presents its operations on a unified basis without the complication caused by models that HCP has adopted in its California market as a result of various regulations related to the assumption of institutional risk. Total care dollars under management is not a measure of financial performance computed in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues calculated in accordance with GAAP. Total care dollars under management includes PMPM payments received from third parties that are recorded net of expenses in our accounting records. The following table reconciles total care dollars under management to medical revenues to the periods indicated.
