August 6, 2024
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Surgery Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:SGRY) ("Surgery Partners" or the "Company"), a leading short-stay surgical facility owner and operator, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
-
Revenues increased 14.2% to $762.1 million compared to the prior year period
- Same-facility revenues increased 9.9%
- Same-facility cases increased 3.9%
-
Net loss attributable to Surgery Partners, Inc. was $15.5 million
- Adjusted EBITDA was $118.3 million, representing 18.1% growth compared to the prior year period
- Adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.5%, expanding 50 basis points from the prior year period
- Full year guidance raised to greater than $3.075 billion in revenue and greater than $508 million in Adjusted EBITDA
Wayne DeVeydt, Executive Chairman of the Board of Surgery Partners, noted, "We are proud to report strong growth in Adjusted EBITDA and revenue, both ahead of our expectations. We achieved these results by continuing to focus on exceptional clinical quality and value, operational execution and the strategic impact of physician recruiting and acquisitions. Our same-facility revenue growth of 10% on a year-to-date basis continues to demonstrate the durability and strength of the macro tailwinds associated with our long-term growth algorithm."
Eric Evans, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "In addition to the strength of operational results for the quarter, we continued executing on our acquisition strategy by deploying nearly $220 million on several transactions. Our year-to-date acquisitions and robust de novo pipeline, coupled with execution on all of our key growth levers gives us confidence in our continued growth including an updated outlook for the remainder of 2024."
Dave Doherty, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Over the last nine months, the Company has addressed its balance sheet exposure to refinancing and interest rates, having refinanced our term loan and unsecured bonds, increased the borrowing capacity of our revolver and lowered our overall interest rates. In the second quarter, we repriced the term loan to a more favorable rate and fully hedged those rates using interest rate caps. These actions position our balance sheet to fully support the Company's continued long-term growth."
Second Quarter 2024 Results
Revenues for the second quarter of 2024 increased 14.2% to $762.1 million from $667.6 million for the second quarter of 2023.

Cash flows from operating activities was $82.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $52.1 million in the prior year quarter.

(1) This amount includes transaction and integration costs of $19.3 million and $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $1.5 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
This amount includes transaction and integration costs of $36.7 million and $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This amount further includes start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities of $3.0 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(2) This amount includes a litigation settlement loss of $0.5 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This amount also includes other litigation costs of $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Additionally, the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $4.4 million related to the impact of recent changes in Florida law regarding the use of letters of protection.
(3) We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to assess operating performance, make business decisions and allocate resources. Non-controlling interests represent the interests of third parties, such as physicians, and in some cases, healthcare systems that own an interest in surgical facilities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. We believe that it is helpful to investors to present Adjusted EBITDA as defined above because it excludes the portion of net income attributable to these third-party interests and clarifies for investors our portion of Adjusted EBITDA generated by our surgical facilities and other operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and evaluating our financial performance. We believe such adjustments are appropriate, as the magnitude and frequency of such items can vary significantly and are not related to the assessment of normal operating performance. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The following table provides supplemental information for Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates:

Management fee revenues are included in Revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(2) Included as a component of income before income taxes in the Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table above.
(3) Start-up costs related to de novo surgical facilities are included in Transaction, integration and acquisition costs in the Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table above.
The following table reconciles Free Cash Flow to net cash provided by operating activities in the reported condensed consolidated financial information, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 | ||||||||||||

| Purchases of property and equipment | $ | (26.9 | ) | $ | (25.8 | ) | $ | (47.9 | ) | $ | (50.1 | ) |
(1) Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flow provided by operating activities, less distributions to non-controlling interest holders and less maintenance capital expenditures, which are capital expenditures primarily to maintain our existing facilities. We use the non-GAAP measure of Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity to determine amounts we can reinvest in our core businesses, such as amounts available to make acquisitions and invest in growth projects. Our calculation of Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
From time to time, the Company incurs certain non-recurring gains or losses that are normally non-operational in nature and management does not consider relevant in assessing its ongoing operating performance. When significant, Surgery Partners' management and the Company's Board of Directors typically exclude these gains or losses when evaluating the Company's operating performance and in certain instances when evaluating performance for incentive compensation purposes. Additionally, management believes that certain investors and equity analysts exclude these or similar items when evaluating the Company's current or future operating performance and in making informed investment decisions regarding the Company. Accordingly, the Company provides adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net income per share attributable to common stockholders as supplements to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net income per share attributable to common stockholders should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to the comparable GAAP measures as presented in the consolidated financial statements.
The following table reconciles net income as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations to adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders used to calculate adjusted net income per share attributable to common stockholders:
