ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information contained herein is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” and Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, “Regulation FD Disclosure.” This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

On August 4, 2009, HealthSouth Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting the financial results of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, a copy of the supplemental slides which will be discussed during the Company’s earnings call at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday, August 5, 2009 is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

See Item 2.02, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” above.

Note Regarding Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement

On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 . As a result, we have reclassified our noncontrolling interests (formerly known as “minority interests”) as a component of equity and now report net income and comprehensive income attributable to our noncontrolling interests separately from net income and comprehensive income attributable to HealthSouth.

Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial data contained in the press release and supplemental slides includes non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s leverage ratio and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA. The Company’s leverage ratio is defined in its Credit Agreement as the ratio of consolidated total debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. The Company continues to believe both its leverage ratio and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA as defined in its Credit Agreement are measures of leverage capacity, its ability to service its debt, and its ability to make capital expenditures.

The Company uses Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA on a consolidated basis as a liquidity measure. The Company believes this financial measure on a consolidated basis is important in analyzing its liquidity because it is the key component of certain material covenants contained within the Company’s Credit Agreement, which is discussed in more detail in Note 8, Long-term Debt , to the consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “2008 Form 10-K”). These covenants are material terms of the Credit Agreement, and the Credit Agreement represents a substantial portion of the Company’s capitalization. Non-compliance with these financial covenants under the Credit Agreement – its interest coverage ratio and its leverage ratio – could result in the Company’s lenders requiring the Company to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If the Company anticipated a potential covenant violation, it would seek relief from its lenders, which would have some cost to the Company, and such relief might not be on terms as favorable to those in the Company’s existing Credit Agreement. In addition, if the Company cannot satisfy these financial covenants, it would be prohibited under the Credit Agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA is critical to the Company’s assessment of its liquidity.

In general terms, the definition of Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, per the Credit Agreement, allows the Company to add back to consolidated net income unusual non-cash or non-recurring items. These items include, but may not be limited to, (1) amounts associated with government, class action, and related settlements, (2) fees, costs, and expenses related to the Company’s recapitalization transactions, (3) any losses from discontinued operations and closed locations, (4) charges in respect of professional fees for reconstruction and restatement of financial

 


statements, including fees paid to outside professional firms for matters related to internal controls and legal fees for continued litigation defense and support matters discussed in Note 11, Settlements , and Note 12, Contingencies , to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2009, when filed, (5) compensation expense recorded in accordance with FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment , (6) investment and other income (including interest income), and (7) fees associated with the Company’s divestiture activities.

However, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and the items excluded from Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. The Company reconciles Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA to net income, which reconciliation is set forth in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1, and to net cash provided by operating activities, which reconciliation is set forth below. Because Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in the 2008 Form 10-K.

The Company also uses adjusted income from continuing operations and the related per share amounts as analytical indicators to assess its performance. Management believes the presentation of adjusted income from continuing operations and the related per share amounts provides useful information to management and investors about the Company’s operating business before taking into account certain items that are non-operational or infrequent in nature. These measures are not defined measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income and net (loss) income per share attributable to HealthSouth common shareholders. Because these measures are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. See the condensed consolidated statements of operations included in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 for the GAAP measures of net income, income from continuing operations, and basic and diluted (loss) earnings per common share. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted income from continuing operations, and the related per share amounts, is included in the earnings release attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the supplemental slides attached as Exhibit 99.2.

The Company also uses adjusted free cash flow as an analytical indicator to assess its performance. Management believes the presentation of adjusted free cash flow provides investors an efficient means by which they can evaluate the Company’s capacity to reduce debt and pursue development activities. The calculation of adjusted free cash flow is included in the supplemental slides attached as Exhibit 99.2. This measure is not a defined measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. Our definition of adjusted free cash flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary spending. Because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. See the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows included in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 for the GAAP measures of cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities. A reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow is presented below.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $229.2 million. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $183.1 million, as reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2009. The difference is the $46.1 million of net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

 

 


For the three months ended June 30, 2008, net cash provided by investing activities was $6.5 million and resulted primarily from a decrease in restricted cash offset by capital expenditures and net settlement payments related to an interest rate swap. Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $26.0 million and resulted primarily from net debt payments made during the period. Net cash used in financing activities during the second quarter of 2008 included $150.2 million of proceeds related to the issuance of common stock, virtually all of which was used to reduce debt.

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net cash used in investing activities was $77.8 million and resulted primarily from capital expenditures and net settlement payments related to an interest rate swap. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $133.8 million and resulted primarily from net debt payments made during the period.

HealthSouth Reports Results for Second Quarter 2009 and Increases 2009 Guidance

Strong Same Store Discharge Growth and Effective Expense Management

Continued Debt Reduction

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – HealthSouth Corporation (NYSE: HLS) today reported its results of operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009. The results showed consolidated net operating revenues of $483.7 million for the second quarter of 2009 compared to $456.6 million for the second quarter of 2008, or an increase of 5.9%. This increase was primarily driven by a 5.6% quarter-over-quarter increase in patient discharges. On a same store basis, discharges increased 4.7% quarter over quarter.

Reported net (loss) income per diluted share was ($0.14) per share for the second quarter of 2009 compared to $0.47 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008. The as reported per share amounts for the second quarter of 2009 included a non-cash charge of $48.7 million related to amounts recorded as government, class action, and related settlements, compared to an $8.6 million gain recorded for similar amounts during the second quarter of 2008. Similarly, during the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $3.8 million loss associated with interest rate swaps that are not designated as hedges, compared to a $28.5 million gain recorded for such swaps during the second quarter of 2008.

Substantially all of the amounts recorded as government, class action, and related settlements in each period resulted from changes in the fair value of our common stock and the associated common stock warrants underlying our securities litigation settlement. The price of our common stock increased significantly from March 31, 2009 to June 30, 2009 resulting in a $48.6 million non-cash charge included in government, class action, and related settlements for the second quarter of 2009.

On an adjusted basis, income from continuing operations was $0.39 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2009, which represents a 129.4%, or $0.22 per share, improvement over the $0.17 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily attributable to revenue growth, lower interest expense, and effective expense management. Adjusted income from continuing operations excludes amounts associated with government, class action, and related settlements, our loss or gain on interest rate swaps, and other non-recurring items, as outlined in the attached supplemental information.

“The second quarter of 2009 was another strong quarter for HealthSouth. We achieved solid results through both continued volume growth and disciplined expense management,” said Jay Grinney, President and Chief Executive Officer of HealthSouth. “We believe the high-quality care provided by our dedicated employees continues to be the primary reason we are seeing sustained increases in the number of patients admitted to our hospitals. As a result of the strong first half and our positive outlook for the remainder of the year, we are increasing our Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and adjusted diluted EPS guidance for 2009.”

The Company continued to deleverage its balance sheet during the second quarter of 2009. As of June 30, 2009, total debt outstanding approximated $1.7 billion, no amounts were drawn on the Company’s $400 million revolving credit facility, and total cash and cash equivalents approximated $49.8 million.

“Our debt reduction, coupled with increased Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, is improving our capital structure by reducing our leverage ratio on both a total and senior secured basis,” said John Workman, Executive Vice

 


President and Chief Financial Officer of HealthSouth. “We believe the improvement in our corporate credit rating by Moody’s and the change in outlook to positive by Standard & Poor’s are confirmation of our improved condition and the success of our strategic deleveraging initiatives.”

The Company continues to believe its higher Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA (see attached supplemental information), coupled with its strong cash flows from operating activities, will allow it to achieve a leverage ratio of 4.5x or below before its stated timeframe of year-end 2010. The Company also continues to believe its longer term leverage ratio goal of 3.5x to 4.0x by the end of 2012 is progressively more achievable.

2009 Guidance

 

As a result of its strong operating results for the first six months of 2009, the Company is increasing its previously provided guidance for 2009. Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA guidance for 2009 has been increased from a range of $342 million to $352 million to a range of $354 million to $362 million. Adjusted diluted earnings per share have been increased from a range of $0.85 to $0.90 per share to a range of $1.15 to $1.25 per share.

 

Other Information

The Company’s leverage ratio that is referenced in this release and elsewhere from time to time is defined in the Company’s Credit Agreement as the ratio of consolidated total debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. Reconciliations of net income to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA can be found in the following schedules.

On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 . As a result, we have reclassified our noncontrolling interests (formerly known as “minority interests”) as a component of equity and now report net income and comprehensive income attributable to our noncontrolling interests separately from net income and comprehensive income attributable to HealthSouth.

The information in this press release is summarized and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (the “June 2009 Form 10-Q”), when filed, as well as the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 4, 2009. In addition, the Company will post supplemental slides today on its website at http://investor.healthsouth.com for reference during its August 5, 2009 earnings call.

The Company expects to file its second quarter 2009 Form 10-Q this week. When filed, the report can be found on the Company’s website at http://investor.healthsouth.com and the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Notes to Reconciliations

 

 

(1) Adjusted income from continuing operations and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s leverage ratio (consolidated total debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is likewise a non-GAAP financial measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize adjusted income from continuing operations as a financial measure and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and the leverage ratio as liquidity measures on an ongoing basis. These measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. In evaluating these adjusted measures, the reader should be aware that in the future HealthSouth may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth above.

( 2) Per share amounts for each period presented are based on basic weighted average common shares outstanding for all amounts except adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share, which is based on diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. The diluted share counts contain approximately 13.1 million shares related to the potential dilution of the Company’s convertible perpetual preferred stock. Per share amounts do not include 5.0 million shares of common stock or warrants to purchase approximately 8.2 million shares of common stock not yet issued under the securities litigation settlement. The increase in the Company’s basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same periods of 2008 was primarily the result of its equity offering of 8.8 million shares that was completed on June 27, 2008.

(3) In the first quarter of 2008, and in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets , the Company accelerated the depreciation of its corporate campus so that the net book value of the campus equaled the estimated net proceeds the Company expected to receive on the sale transaction’s closing date. The year-over-year impact of this acceleration of depreciation approximated $10 million. No similar charges are expected in 2009.

(4) Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA are two components of the Company’s guidance.

(5) The Company’s Credit Agreement allows unusual non-cash or non-recurring items to be added to arrive at Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA. In addition, certain other deductions may be required. Such amounts have not been included in the above calculation as it would not be indicative of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for future periods.

(6) Interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 included the reversal of approximately $9.4 million of accrued interest related to the loan guarantee for which the Company received a release as part of the UBS Settlement.

CMS Fiscal Year 2010 IRF Rate Setting File Analysis (1)

Notes:

(1)   All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2010 IRF rate setting
proposed rule file found at
http://www.cms.hhs.gov/InpatientRehabFacPPS/07_DataFiles.asp#TopOfPage . The data presented was developed
entirely by CMS and is based on its definitions which are different in form and substance from the criteria HealthSouth uses for external reporting
purposes. Because CMS does not provide its detailed methodology, HealthSouth is not able to reconstruct the CMS projections or the calculation.

(2)   The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,205 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the proposed policy updates for the FY 2010
proposed IRF-PPS rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2007 period and does not reflect the same
HealthSouth hospitals in operation today. The data presented was separated into three categories: Freestanding, Units, and HealthSouth.
HealthSouth is a subset of Freestanding and the Total.

Operational and Labor Metrics

(1) Represents discharges from HealthSouth’s 90 consolidated hospitals.

(2) Excludes 388 and 399 full-time equivalents for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 392 and 422 full-time equivalents for the six
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, who are considered part of corporate overhead with their salaries and benefits included in general and
administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Full-time equivalents included in the above table represent
HealthSouth employees who participate in or support the operations of the Company’s hospitals.

(3) Employees per occupied bed, or “EPOB,” is calculated by dividing the number of full-time equivalents, including an estimate of full-time equivalents from the
utilization of contract labor, by the number of occupied beds during each period. The number of occupied beds is determined by multiplying the number of licensed
beds by the Company’s occupancy percentage.

Non-Operating Cash/Tax Position

Cash Refunds as of June 30, 2009

Federal tax recoveries virtually complete.

Approx. $42 million received.

State tax refunds in progress.

Approx. $11 million received.

Approx. $10.5 million net receivable on
the balance sheet.

Future Cash Tax Payments

Expect to pay about $5-7 million per year of
income tax.

State income tax.

Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).

With over $2.5 billion in NOLs and tax
deductions, we do not expect to pay significant
federal income taxes for approximately the next
10-12 years.

At this time, we do not believe the use of
NOLs will be limited before they expire,
however, no assurances can be provided.

HealthSouth is not currently subject to an
annual use limitation (AUL) under the Internal
Revenue Code section 382.

If we experienced a “change of ownership” as
defined by the Internal Revenue Code section
382, we would be subject to an AUL, which is
equal to the value of the company at the time of
the “change of ownership” multiplied by the
long-term tax exempt rate.

GAAP Considerations

HealthSouth’s balance sheet currently reflects
a valuation allowance for the potential value
of NOLs and future deductions. The valuation
allowance is approximately $1.0 billion.

GAAP tax rate will net to small amount for
foreseeable future as there will be a reduction
in the valuation allowance when NOLs are
utilized.

Each warrant has a term of ten years from the date of issuance and an exercise price of $32.50 per share. The warrants
were not assumed exercised for dilutive shares outstanding because they were antidilutive in the periods presented.

(3) Does not include approximately 5.0 million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase approximately 8.2 million
shares of common stock at a strike price of $41.40 to settle our class action securities litigation. This agreement received
final court approval in January 2007. As of June 30, 2009, these shares of common stock and warrants have not been
issued and are not included in our basic or diluted common shares outstanding. Absent a petition for certiorari, we expect
the shares to be distributed in September 2009.  

(4) The difference between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to our convertible perpetual preferred
stock.

Reconciliation Notes

1.

Adjusted income from continuing operations and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA are non-
GAAP financial measures. The Company’s leverage ratio (Total Consolidated Debt to
Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP
financial measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize
adjusted income from continuing operations as a financial measure and Adjusted
Consolidated EBITDA and leverage ratio as liquidity measures on an ongoing basis. These
measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an
alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. In evaluating these adjusted
measures, the reader should be aware that in the future HealthSouth may incur expenses
similar to the adjustments set forth above.

2.

Per share amounts for each period presented are based on basic weighted average common
shares outstanding for all amounts except adjusted income from continuing operations per
diluted share, which is based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The difference
in shares between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to our
convertible perpetual preferred stock. Per share amounts do not include 5.0 million shares not
yet issued under the securities litigation settlement.

3.

Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share and Adjusted Consolidated
EBITDA are two components of our guidance.

4.

The Company’s Credit Agreement allows certain other items to be added to arrive at  
Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, and there may be certain other deductions required.
