Encompass Health 15 Independent Research Concludes IRFs are a Better Rehabilitation Option for Stroke Patients than SNFs “If the hospital suggests sending your loved one to a skilled nursing facility after a stroke, advocate for the patient to go to an inpatient rehabilitation facility instead…”* “Whenever possible, the American Stroke Association strongly recommends that stroke patients be treated at an inpatient rehabilitation facility rather than a skilled nursing facility. While in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, a patient participates in at least three hours of rehabilitation a day from physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists. Nurses are continuously available and doctors typically visit daily.”* * ** AHA/ASA press release, “Inpatient rehab recommended over nursing homes for stroke rehab,” issued May 4, 2016 (newsroom.heart.org) “Guidelines for Adult Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery,” issued May 2016 (stroke.ahajournals.org) “The studies that have compared outcomes in hospitalized stroke patients first discharged to an IRF, a SNF, or a nursing home have generally shown that IRF patients have higher rates of return to community living and greater functional recovery, whereas patients discharged to a SNF or a nursing home have higher rehospitalization rates and substantially poorer survival.”** 103 of the Company’s IRFs hold The Joint Commission’s Disease-Specific Care Certification in Stroke Rehabilitation.

Encompass Health 17 Investment Thesis and Strategy Encompass Health’s ability to adapt to changes, build strategic relationships, and consistently provide high-quality, cost-effective care positions the Company for success in the evolving healthcare industry.


 
Encompass Health 18 Investment Thesis Encompass Health is positioned to become the nation's leading provider of integrated post-acute services. The healthcare industry is evolving toward integrated delivery models and value-based care. Providers must be able to adapt to changes, build strategic relationships across the healthcare continuum, and consistently provide high-quality, cost-effective care to be successful. Change Agility Demonstrated ability to adapt across economic cycles and in the face of numerousand significant regulatory and legislative changes Strategic Relationships Joint ventures with acute-care partners comprise one-third of IRF portfolio. Formed Post-Acute Innovation Center in collaboration with Cerner Corporation to develop enhanced tools to manage patients across the continuum of care Partnered with the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association to jointly work to elevate national and local awareness that stroke is treatable and beatable through rehabilitation and community support Quality of Patient Outcomes Outcomes in both operating segments exceed national industry standards. Cost Effectiveness Treatment of more medically complex patients at lower average costs than other post-acute providers through superior clinical protocols, economies of scale, and technology-enabled business processes Growth Both of the Company's segments benefit from favorable demographic trends and thenondiscretionary nature of many conditions treated.


 
Encompass Health 19 Elements of Strategy Strategy The Company’s strategy is to expand its network of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals and home health and hospice agencies, further strengthen its relationships with healthcare systems, provider networks, and payors in order to connect patient care across the healthcare continuum, and to deliver superior outcomes. Clinical Expertise and High-Quality Outcomes Financial Resources Advanced Technology Sustained Growth Post-Acute Innovation

Encompass Health 21 Home-Based Post-Acute Services • More care in the home (lowest cost setting) • Ability to care for high-acuity patients with multiple chronic conditions Future Post-Acute Providers Inpatient Rehabilitation Hospitals • Full range: low acuity à high acuity • 24/7 nursing coverage • Eliminates payment silos • Integrated Delivery Payment Models • Value-Based Payments • Site Neutrality Current Post-Acute Providers Facility-Based Post Acute Services Skilled Nursing Facilities Home Health Long-Term Acute Care Hospitals • Medicare payments/regulations are site specific (e.g., 60% Rule, 3-Hour Rule, “preponderance” of one-to-one therapy). ▪ The Company believes the healthcare industry is moving toward integrated delivery payment models, value-based purchasing, and site neutrality. ▪ To succeed, providers must be able to adapt to changes in the regulatory and operating environments, build strategic relationships across the healthcare continuum, and consistently provide high-quality care at a cost-effective price. The Healthcare Landscape is Changing. • Medicare payments/regulations will be outcome focused. • Many existing regulations will become unnecessary.

Higher acuity patients will transition from post-acute inpatient hospitals to home health. Lower acuity patients will go directly to home health.Post-Acute Inpatient Spectrum Higher Acuity Lower Acuity Progression to Site Neutrality Post-Acute Inpatient Hospitals Presen t Futur e The Company’s IRFs have the physical construct, clinical staffing, and operating expertise to “pivot from the center” to address the full spectrum of inpatient post-acute needs in a site neutral environment.


 
Encompass Health 23 The Company Continues to Improve the Patient Experience Through Integrated Care Delivery Inpatient Rehabilitation–Home Health Clinical Collaboration (All Payors) Overlap Markets* Q4 2016 Q4 2017 10,074 10,660 3,963 4,939 28.2% Collaboration Rate 31.7% Collaboration Rateu As of December 31, 2017, ~60% of Encompass Health’s inpatient rehabilitation hospitals were located within overlap markets.* u The clinical collaboration rate with Encompass Health’s inpatient rehabilitation hospitals increased by 350 basis points in Q4 2017 compared to Q4 2016. u The Company’s clinical collaboration rate objective for overlap markets is 35% to 40% within the next two years. u TeamWorks clinical collaboration is a process to identify and standardize best practices for integrated patient care. Ÿ Initiative launched in February 2017 Ÿ Began piloting redesigned clinical collaboration process in July 2017 Ÿ Implementation completed in December 2017 Encompass Health IRF Discharges to: Encompass Health Home Health Non-Encompass Health Home Health * Overlap markets have an Encompass Health IRF and an Encompass Health home health location within a 30-mile radius, excluding markets that have home health licensure barriers. Home health locations in overlap markets are open for 12 months before inclusion in the clinical collaboration rate.


 
Encompass Health 24 Solution: Utilize extensive proprietary database of IRF patients to engage in predictive modeling to identify patients at risk for acute care transfer and implement intervention strategies as part of the plan of care. Solution: Standardize and improve infection control practices across the company in order to reduce the risk of infection to patients and apply evidenced- based decision making in the Company’s IRFs. Solution: Develop clinical protocols and coordinated discharge planning between IRFs and home health agencies; implement TeamWorks initiative to standardize best practices across all overlap markets; and integrate Care Transition Coordinators to implement patient-centered transition plans that promote quality, safety and patient choice. Problem: Acute care transfers can negatively influence patient outcomes and result in unnecessary healthcare expenditures and penalties. Problem: Infections are a threat to patient safety and add to growing healthcare costs. Problem: Poor coordination of the discharge process between healthcare providers can result in challenges with the transition of care, unnecessary duplication of services, and avoidable medical errors.

Encompass Health 38 IRF-PPS Fiscal Year 2018 Final Rule: Key Provisions Company Observations Pricing: • Net pricing impact to the Company expected to be an increase of approx. 0.8% for FY 2018 (see page 36) • Because of its efficient cost structure, the Company receives very few outlier payments despite treating higher acuity patients (see page 87). Quality: • The Company will supplement existing quality reporting systems to meet the new requirements. Source: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/08/03/2017-16291/medicare-program-inpatient- rehabilitation-facility-prospective-payment-system-for-federal-fiscal CMS: • Removed All-Cause Unplanned Readmission Measure for 30 Days Post- Discharge from IRF; • Removed and replaced the Percent of Residents or Patients with Pressure Ulcers That Are New or Worsened (Short Stay) (NQF #0678) measure with a modified version entitled Changes in Skin Integrity Post-Acute Care: Pressure Ulcer/Injury beginning with the FY 2020 IRF QRP; • Added six quality measures to those publicly reported on IRF Compare; and • Finalized the data elements currently reported on the IRF-PAI that meet the definition of standardized patient assessment data for the IMPACT Act. New Quality Reporting Update to Payment Rates The final rule: • Implemented a net 1.0% market basket increase as established by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) of 2015; • Updated Case-Mix Group Relative Weights and Average Length of Stay Values; • Updated the outlier threshold; and • Updated wage index values. 60% Rule - Update to Presumptive Methodology Code List • CMS finalized certain changes to the list of codes it uses to presumptively test compliance with the 60% Rule. – The final rule adds ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes for traumatic brain injury, hip fracture, and major multiple trauma (effective beginning on or after October 1, 2017). – The final rule does not include the originally proposed removal of certain ICD-10-CM codes.


 
Encompass Health 39 The final rule: • Implemented a net 1.0% market basket increase as established by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) of 2015 and • Implemented year three of a three-year nominal case-mix coding intensity reduction adjustment of (0.9%). The final rule would have implemented the expiration of the rural add-on (0.5%), but Congress elected to extend the adjustment through 2022(15), albeit declining in amount along the way. New Quality Reporting Measures Final Rule Update to 2018 Payment Rates Company Observations CMS adopted, for the CY 2020 payment determination, three measures to meet the requirements of the IMPACT Act: • Changes in skin integrity post-acute care pressure ulcer/injury; • Application of % of residents experiencing one or more falls with major injury; and • Application of % of long-term care hospital patients with an admit and discharge functional assessment and care plan that addresses function. These finalized measures will be calculated from OASIS data.

These changes were known as the Home Health Groupings Model (“HHGM”). Payment System(15): • The Company will continue to engage with CMS, Congress, and other stakeholders to ensure any change to the underlying payment system maintains access to needed home health services. Pricing: • Net pricing impact to the Company expected to be a decrease of approx. 0.5% for CY 2018 (see page 36) Quality: • The Company will supplement existing processes and systems to meet the new requirements. HH-PPS Calendar Year 2018 Final Rule: Key Provisions


 
Encompass Health 40 Company observations and considerations with respect to the IMPACT Act: ▪ It was developed on a bi-partisan basis by the House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committees and incorporated feedback from healthcare providers and provider organizations that responded to the Committees’ solicitation of post-acute payment reform ideas and proposals. ▪ It directs the United States Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), in consultation with healthcare stakeholders, to implement standardized data collection processes for post-acute quality and resource use measures. ▪ Although the IMPACT Act does not specifically call for the implementation of a new post-acute payment system, the Company believes this act will lay the foundation for possible future post-acute payment policies that would be based on patients’ medical conditions and other clinical factors rather than the setting where the care is provided. ▪ It will create additional data reporting requirements for the Company’s IRFs(17) and home health agencies. The precise details of these new reporting requirements, including timing and content, will be developed and implemented by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services through the regulatory process the Company expects will take place over the next several years. ▪ While the Company cannot quantify the potential financial effect of the IMPACT Act on Encompass Health, the Company believes any post-acute payment system that is data driven and focuses on the needs and underlying medical conditions of post-acute patients will be positive for providers who offer high-quality, cost-effective care. Encompass Health believes it is doing just that and expects this act will be positive for the Company. ▪ However, it will likely take years for the quality data to be gathered, standardized patient assessment data to be assembled and disseminated, and potential payment policies to be developed, tested and promulgated. As the nation’s largest owner and operator of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, the Company looks forward to working with HHS, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission and other healthcare stakeholders on these initiatives.

Encompass Health 55 Bundled Payments Model 1 All acute patients (all DRGs) – Concluded December 31, 2016 – The Bundled Payments for Care Improvement (BPCI) initiative currently tests four types of bundles (i.e. “Models”): Model 2* Hospital plus post-acute period (selected DRGs) Model 3* Post acute only (selected DRGs) Model 4* Hospital plus readmissions (selected DRGs) How the Retrospective Models Work Ÿ The BPCI “convener” is responsible for bringing providers together to provide a continuum of services throughout an episode of care. The BPCI “awardee” is the entity that bears the financial risk and receives the shared savings from CMS. Ÿ Each participating provider in the care sequence continues to receive its traditional reimbursement from Medicare. Ÿ The sum of all payments made to each provider for selected DRGs is then retroactively reconciled to a target payment determined by CMS. Payment reconciliations are performed quarterly, typically with a 9- to 12-month lag. Ÿ Payment reconciliations: If actual spending exceeds the target, the awardee is responsible for paying a portion of the difference to CMS. If actual spending is less than the target, the awardee keeps a portion of the savings. Ÿ The convener can choose to partner with other providers in shared savings agreements and allocate the savings across the providers who participated in providing the continuum of care. Ÿ Shared savings agreements must be reviewed and approved by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation. Models 2 & 3 have the most impact on post-acute providers. Notes: Models 1, 2, and 3 are retrospective models; model 4 is a prospective model. The convener and awardee can be, but may not be, the same entity. * BPCI Models 2, 3, and 4 will end on September 30, 2018 and be replaced by the BPCI Advanced model which begins on October 1, 2018 and runs through December 31, 2023. BPCI Advanced is a new voluntary episode payment model that will test a new iteration of bundled payments for 29 inpatient clinical episodes and 3 outpatient clinical episodes. For more information regarding BPCI Advanced, see https://innovation.cms.gov/initiatives/bpci-advanced.

Encompass Health 57* These comorbidities are specific to acute care hospitals and are defined differently than IRFs’ comorbidities.Source: https://innovation.cms.gov/initiatives/cjr Acute care hospital patients are categorized by Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Groups (“MS-DRGs”); the CJR model covers two MS-DRGs: MS-DRG 469 Major joint replacement or reattachment of lower extremity with major complications or comorbidities* MS-DRG 470 Major joint replacement or reattachment of lower extremity without major complications or comorbidities* IRF patients are categorized by Rehabilitation Impairment Categories (“RICs”); CJR model patients are a subset of two RICs: RIC 07 Lower extremity fractures (~30% are MS-DRGs 469 and 470) RIC 08 Lower extremity joint replacements (~75% are MS-DRGs 469 and 470) Since the implementation of the 60% Rule in 2007, the relative number of RIC 07 and RIC 08 patients treated in the Company’s IRFs has declined significantly.

The CJR model was a mandatory five-year model that began April 1, 2016 in 67 geographic areas. On November 30, 2017, CMS issued a Final Rule which reduced the number of geographic areas that were required to participate; 33 of the 67 geographic areas were moved to “voluntary” status. The Final Rule also canceled the Episode Payment Models and the Cardiac Rehabilitation Incentive Payment Model that were scheduled to begin on January 1, 2018. u~380 acute care hospitals are included in the 34 geographic areas that are required to participate in CJR. uEncompass Health has 25 IRFs located in these 34 mandatory markets (12 overlap with Encompass Health home health locations). uIn 2016, mandatory CJR patients in Encompass Health markets would have represented ~0.7% of total Encompass Health IRF discharges.

Encompass Health 64 Options Holder – The right (but not the obligation) to sell for cash up to 1/3 of the Rollover Shares to the parent after 1/1/18*; 2/3 after 1/1/19; and all outstanding Rollover Shares after 1/1/20 Company – The right (but not the obligation) to purchase for cash all or any portion of the Rollover Shares after 1/1/20 upon 20 days prior written notice Valuation Fair value of the Rollover Shares is determined using the product of Home Health Holdings’ EBITDA for the trailing 12-month period and a median market price multiple based on a basket of public home health companies and recent transactions, less the current balance of the intracompany note(s) to the parent. As of December 31, 2017, the value of the Rollover Shares was ~$192 million. In connection with the 2014 acquisition of Encompass Home Health and Hospice: • Certain members of that management team rolled a portion of their pre- acquisition equity into the post-acquisition entity (“Home Health Holdings”) resulting in a 16.7% ownership interest (the “Rollover Shares”). • Home Health Holdings was capitalized with a promissory note to the parent company totaling ~$385 million (equal to 5.5x the segment’s 2014 EBITDA). This was done to provide the opportunity for leveraged returns on the equity, thereby mimicking a private equity transaction structure. • To the extent Home Health Holdings needs cash (e.g., acquisitions, capex, etc.), such amounts may be added to the principal amount of the note or via the creation of new notes. Cash generated from the operations of Home Health Holdings may be used to pay interest and principal on the note(s). Overview of Rollover Shares Held by Members of the Home Health and Hospice Management Team Background Home Health Holdings Rollover Shares 16.7% * In February 2018, each management investor exercised the right to sell 1/3 of his or her Rollover Shares to EHC, representing ~5.6% of the outstanding common shares of Holdings. EHC settled the acquisition of those shares upon payment of ~$65 million in cash.

Encompass Health 70 •Salaries and Benefits includes group medical costs and is impacted by staffing levels based on patient volumes. •IRF-related Expenses includes other operating expenses (excluding loss on disposal or impairment of assets), supplies, and occupancy costs. •Provision for Doubtful Accounts is impacted by reserve activity related to the level of pre-payment denials by Medicare Administrative Contractors. (see page 71) •Employees per Occupied Bed (“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.

On claims it takes to an administrative law judge (“ALJ”), Encompass Health historically has experienced an approximate 70% success rate. – MACs identify medical documentation issues as a leading basis for denials. – Encompass Health’s investment in clinical information systems and its medical services department has further improved its documentation and reduced technical denials. – However, MACs and other HHS contractors continue to issue denials without regulatory basis. • By statute, ALJ decisions are due within 90 days of a request for hearing, but appeals are taking years. HHS has implemented rule changes to address the backlog of appeals, but their effect is uncertain. • In 2016, a federal court ordered HHS to eliminate the backlog by the end of CY 2020. HHS continues to object that it cannot clear the backlog in the timeframe established by the court. Although HHS remains bound by the order, the courts are considering how HHS will comply. • All Medicare providers continue to experience delays. The backlog is growing because the ALJs receive one year’s worth of appeals every four to six weeks, according to HHS. – Currently, ALJs are hearing Encompass Health appeals from claims denied up to eight years ago. • In summer 2017, CMS announced the Targeted Probe and Educate (“TPE”) initiative. For more information regarding TPE, see https://www.cms.gov/ Research-Statistics-Data-and-Systems/Monitoring-Programs/Medicare-FFS- Compliance-Programs/Medical-Review/Targeted-Probe-and- EducateTPE.html • Effective February 2018, Palmetto GBA assumed responsibilities for Cahaba’s MAC jurisdiction.

No similar requirement; Nursing homes are regulated as nursing homes only All patients must be admitted by a rehab physician. No similar requirement Rehab physicians must re-confirm each admission w/n 24 hours. No similar requirement All patients, regardless of diagnoses/condition, must demonstrate need and receive at least three hours of daily intensive therapy. No similar requirement All patients must see a rehabilitation physician “in person” at least three times weekly. No similar requirement; some SNF patients may go a week or longer without seeing a physician, and often a non- rehabilitation physician. IRFs are required to provide 24 hour, 7 days per week nursing care; many nurses are RNs and rehab nurses. No similar requirement IRFs are required to use a coordinated interdisciplinary team approach led by a rehab physician; includes a rehab nurse, a case manager, and a licensed therapist from each therapy discipline who must meet weekly to evaluate/discuss each patient’s case. No similar requirement; Nursing homes are not required to provide care on a interdisciplinary basis and are not required to hold regular meetings for each patient. IRFs are required to follow stringent admission/coverage policies and must carefully document justification for each admission; further restricted in number/type of patients (60% Rule). Nursing homes have comparatively few policies governing the number or types of patients they treat. Source: MedPAC, Medicare Payment Policy, March 2017 - pages 208, 216, 217, 271, and 275

Encompass Health 107 (1) Under this program, Joint Commission accredited organizations, like the Company’s IRFs, may seek certification for chronic diseases or conditions such as brain injury or stroke rehabilitation by complying with Joint Commission standards, effectively using evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to manage and optimize patient care, and using an organized approach to performance measurement and evaluation of clinical outcomes. Obtaining such certifications demonstrates the Company’s commitment to excellence in providing disease-specific care. (2) Data compares Encompass Health IRFs to IRFs comprising the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (“UDSMR”), a division of UB Foundation Activities, Inc., a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry which represents approximately 70% of the industry, including Encompass Health sites. Data is adjusted by applying Encompass Health IRF case-mix to non-Encompass Health UDS IRFs. (3) Source: https://data.medicare.gov/data/home-health-compare. Data on this page was published in January 2018 and reflects OASIS and HHCAHPS Survey data collected from July 2016 through June 2017 and claims-based data collected from April 2016 through March 2017. (4) The 123 for Encompass Health excludes the inpatient rehabilitation hospitals at HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Modesto (opened October 2016); HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Gulfport (opened April 2017); Mount Carmel Rehabilitation Hospital, in partnership with HealthSouth (opened April 2017); Spire Rehabilitation Hospital, in partnership with HealthSouth (opened July 2017); HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Pearland (opened October 2017); and HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Beaumont (sold June 2016). The 123 does include HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Austin, which was closed August 2016. (5) In 2016, the Company averaged 1,386 total Medicare and non-Medicare discharges per IRF in its then 118 consolidated IRFs that were open the full year. (6) Case Mix Index (CMI) from the rate-setting file is adjusted for short-stay transfer cases. The Company’s unadjusted CMI for 2016 was 1.36 versus 1.33 for the industry as measured by UDSMR. (7) Source: FY 2018 CMS Final Rule Rate Setting File and the last publicly available Medicare cost reports (FYE 2015/2016) or in the case of new IRFs, the June 2017 CMS Provider of Service File. a.All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2018 IRF Final Rule Rate Setting File found at https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/InpatientRehabFacPPS/Downloads/FY2018_datafiles_final.zip. The data presented was developed entirely by CMS and is based on its definitions which are different in form and substance from the criteria Encompass Health uses for external reporting purposes. Because CMS does not provide its detailed methodology, Encompass Health is not able to reconstruct the CMS projections or the calculation. b.The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,140 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2018 IRF-PPS Final Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2016 period and may or may not reflect the same Encompass Health IRFs in operation today. The data presented was separated into three categories: Freestanding, Units, and Encompass Health. Encompass Health is a subset of Freestanding and the Total. (8) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by H.R. 8). The reduction was made from whatever level of payment would otherwise have been provided under Medicare law and regulation. (9) The Company acquired an additional 30% equity interest in Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital in Worcester, MA from its joint venture partner. This transaction increased the Company’s ownership interest from 50% to 80% and resulted in a change in accounting for the hospital from the equity method to a consolidated entity effective June 1, 2014. (10) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s leverage ratio (total consolidated debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure and the leverage ratio as a liquidity measure 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 Adjusted EBITDA, the reader should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth. Further explanation and disclosure relating to Adjusted EBITDA are included in the Company’s Form 8-K, dated March 13, 2018, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1. End Notes


 
Encompass Health 108 (11) The Company is providing adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health (“adjusted earnings per share”), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted earnings per share provides useful additional information to investors because it provides better comparability of ongoing operating performance to prior periods given that it excludes the impact of government, class action, and related settlements, professional fees - accounting, tax, and legal, mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights, gains or losses related to hedging instruments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims), items related to corporate and facility restructurings, and certain other items deemed to be non- indicative of ongoing operating performance. It is reasonable to expect that one or more of these excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly relate to the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Accordingly, they can complicate comparisons of the Company’s results of operations across periods and comparisons of the Company’s results to those of other healthcare companies. Adjusted earnings per share should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States as the items excluded from it are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted earnings per share is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable as presented to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Further explanation and disclosure relating to adjusted EPS are included in the Company’s Form 8-K, dated March 13, 2018, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1. (12) Definition of adjusted free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, is net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations minus capital expenditures for maintenance, dividends paid on preferred stock, distributions to noncontrolling interests, and certain other items deemed to be non- indicative of ongoing operating performance. Common stock dividends are not included in the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. 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. Further explanation and disclosure relating to adjusted free cash flow are included in the Company’s Form 8-K, dated March 13, 2018, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1. Note: Adjusted free cash flow for prior periods has been recast to conform to the new guidance in ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share- Based Payment Accounting.” The Company’s stock-based compensation plans permit shares to be withheld to pay the employee’s tax withholding obligations incurred in connection with the vesting of a stock award. The Company then remits the value of those withheld shares in cash to the applicable tax authority on the employee’s behalf. Under the new guidance, all cash payments made to taxing authorities on employees’ behalf for shares withheld should be presented as a financing activity in the statement of cash flows. Historically, the Company presented such payments as an operating activity. Adjusted Free Cash Flow As Previously Reported Payroll Taxes Paid Reclassified to Financing Activities As Currently Reported Q1 2016 $ 129.5 $ 9.9 $ 139.4 Q2 2016 115.3 — 115.3 Q3 2016 139.8 — 139.8 Q4 2016 78.3 1.7 80.0 FY 2016 $ 462.9 $ 11.6 $ 474.5 (13) On July 21, 2016, the board of directors approved a $0.01 per share, or 4.3%, increase to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s common stock, bringing the quarterly cash dividend to $0.24 per common share. On July 20, 2017, the board of directors approved a $0.01 per share, or 4.2%, increase to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s common stock, bringing the quarterly cash dividend to $0.25 per common share. (14) The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 mandated a market basket update of +1.0% in 2018 for post-acute providers including inpatient rehabilitation hospitals as well as home health and hospice agencies. End Notes, con't.


 
Encompass Health 109 (15) The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, signed into law on February 9, 2018, provides for a home health market basket update of 1.5% for CY 2020 and the elimination of any productivity adjustment to the market basket for that year. It also provides for the extension of the rural add-on adjustment through 2022, albeit declining in amount along the way. Additionally, it requires that a new case mix payment model be introduced in 2020 that would be based on a 30-day unit of service, not include therapy thresholds as a component of the system, and be implemented in a budget neutral manner. (16) The Company estimates the expected impact of each rule utilizing, among other things, the acuity of its patients over the 8-month (home health segment) to 12-month (inpatient rehabilitation segment) period prior to each rule’s release and incorporates other adjustments included in each rule. These estimates are prior to the impact of sequestration. (17) Quality reporting requirements and potential penalties were enabled for IRFs as part of the Healthcare Reform Bill (PPACA). The IMPACT Act of 2014 requires additional quality and clinical data reporting for IRFs to be subject to the original 2% penalty. (18) Pre-opening expenses include expenses for training new employees on the clinical information system, which vary based on the timing of the first admission. (19) The leverage ratio is based on trailing four quarters of Adjusted EBITDA of $823.1 million from Q1 2017 to Q4 2017. (20) Represents discharges from 126 consolidated IRFs in Q4 2017; 125 consolidated IRFs in Q3 2017; 124 consolidated IRFs in Q2 2017; 122 consolidated IRFs in Q1 2017 and Q4 2016; 121 consolidated IRFs in Q3 2016; 120 consolidated IRFs in Q2 2016; and 121 consolidated IRFs in Q1 2016. (21) Full-time equivalents included in the table represent Encompass Health employees who participate in or support the operations of our hospitals and include an estimate of full-time equivalents related to contract labor. (22) 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. (23) Represents home health admissions from 198 consolidated locations in Q4 2017; 196 consolidated locations in Q3 2017; 191 consolidated locations in Q2 2017 and Q1 2017; 186 consolidated locations in Q4 2016; 188 consolidated locations in Q3 2016; 187 consolidated locations in Q2 2016; and 184 consolidated locations in Q1 2016 (24) Represents hospice admissions from 37 locations in Q4 2017, Q3 2017 and Q2 2017; 35 locations in Q1 2017 and Q4 2016; 33 locations in Q3 2016; 29 locations in Q2 2016; and 27 locations in Q1 2016 (25) The application of the lower income tax rate that resulted from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to the Company’s net deferred tax assets resulted in a net $1.2 million increase in tax expense in Q4 2017. Application of the new tax rate to the Company’s joint venture entities’ deferred tax liabilities resulted in a net reduction in tax expense in Q4 2017. The Company’s joint venture partners’ share of this net tax benefit was $4.6 million, which resulted in an increase in noncontrolling interest expense in Q4 2017. (26) In connection with the acquisition of Encompass Home Health & Hospice, the Company granted stock appreciation rights based on the fair value of the common stock of HealthSouth Home Health Holdings, Inc. to certain members of Encompass Home Health & Hospice management. The fair value of Holdings’ common stock is the amount by which the product of the trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA for Holdings and the median market EBITDA multiple based on a basket of public home health companies and certain public home health acquisition transactions exceeds the initial fair value assigned to the Holdings’ stock. The fair value also takes into consideration the balance of the intercompany note in place and the net debt of Holdings. The fair value of these SARs will vary from period to period primarily based on the performance of the Company’s home health and hospice segment and the change in the median market multiple. Half of the SARs vest of January 1, 2019, and the other half vest on January 1, 2020. Once vested, they are exercisable until they expire on December 31, 2024 or in connection with termination of employment. (27) New guidance in ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” requires entities to record all of the tax effects related to share-based payment at settlement (or expiration) through the income statement. Historically, the Company recorded such tax effects to equity. End Notes, con't.


 
Encompass Health 110 (28) The interest and amortization and the loss on early extinguishment of debt related to the convertible senior subordinated notes must be added to income from continuing operations when calculating diluted earnings per share because the debt was assumed to have been converted at the beginning of the period, and the applicable shares were included in the diluted share count. (29) In November 2013, the Company closed separate, privately negotiated exchanges in which it issued $320 million of 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2043 in exchange for 257,110 shares of its 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Company recorded ~$249 million as debt and ~$71 million as equity. In May 2017, the Company provided notice of its intent to redeem all $320 million of outstanding convertible notes. In lieu of receiving the redemption price, the holders had the right to convert their notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 27.2221 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which rate was increased by a make-whole premium. In the aggregate, holders of $319.4 million in principal elected to convert, which resulted in the Company issuing 8,895,483 shares of common stock (approximately 8.6 million shares were previously included in the diluted share count). The remaining $0.6 million of principal was redeemed by cash payment. (30) The agreement to settle the Company’s class action securities litigation received final court approval in January 2007. The 5.0 million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase ~8.2 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $41.40 (expired January 17, 2017) related to this settlement were issued on September 30, 2009. The 5.0 million common shares are included in the basic outstanding shares. The warrants were not included in the diluted share count prior to 2015 because the strike price had historically been above the market price. In full-year 2016, zero shares related to the warrants were included in the diluted share count due to antidilution based on the stock price. End Notes, con't.
