SUMMARY OF 2021 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2021 RESULTS

For the 2021 Year, USPH’s net income attributable to its shareholders, a GAAP measure, was $40.8 million as compared to $35.2 million for the 2020 Year and $40.0 million for the 2019 Year. The 2021 Year and the 2020 Year include Relief Funds, net of non-controlling interest and taxes, of $2.9 million and $7.8 million, respectively, and the 2019 Year includes a gain on sale of partnerships and clinics of $4.1 million, net of taxes.

In accordance with current accounting guidance, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of taxes, is not included in net income but charged directly to retained earnings; however, the charge for this change is included in the earnings per basic and diluted share calculation. Including the charge for revaluation of non-controlling interest, net of taxes, the amount is $31.1 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.41, for the 2021 Year, $31.8 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.48, for the 2020 Year, and $31.3 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.45, for the 2019 Year. See the schedule on page 17 for the computation of earnings per diluted share.

For the 2021 Fourth Quarter, USPH’s net income attributable to its shareholders was $10.2 million as compared to $13.0 million for the 2020 Fourth Quarter and $7.9 million for the 2019 Fourth Quarter. Inclusive of the charge or credit for revaluation of non-controlling interest, net of taxes, used to compute earnings per diluted share in accordance with GAAP, the amount is $9.4 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, for the 2021 Fourth Quarter, $8.7 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, for the 2020 Fourth Quarter, and $7.1 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the 2019 Fourth Quarter.

For the 2021Year, USPH’s Operating Results, inclusive of Relief Funds, was $43.8 million, or $3.39 per diluted share, an increase of 13.8%, as compared to $38.4 million, or $2.99 per diluted share, for the 2020 Year. For the 2021Year, USPH’s Operating Results, excluding Relief Funds, was $40.9 million, or $3.17 per diluted share, an increase of 33.5%, as compared to $30.6 million, or $2.39 per diluted share, for the 2020 Year. Operating Results, excluding Relief Funds, for the 2021 Year was also 13.6% higher than the $36.0 million, or $2.82 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2019 (“2019 Year”). Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH diluted shareholders per the consolidated statements of income less gain on sale of partnership interests and clinics plus charges incurred for clinic closure costs and expenses related to executive officer transitions and settlement of a legal matter, all net of taxes. Operating Results per diluted share also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact. See tables on pages 16 and 17.

For the 2021 Fourth Quarter, USPH’s Operating Results, inclusive of Relief Funds, was $12.2 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, a decrease of 12.4%, as compared to $13.9 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, for the 2020 Year.

As previously disclosed in a series of filings with the SEC and further described in detail in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of 2020 and our 2020 Annual Report, the Company’s results were negatively impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. For 2021 Year as compared to 2020 Year, the increase in revenues and expenses are largely due to the Company returning to and now exceeding pre-pandemic patient volumes.

Relief Funds

On March 27, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government approved the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The CARES Act provided waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 pandemic, including $100.0 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund, also referred to as the Provider Relief Fund, to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the Coronavirus, and for reimbursing eligible health care providers for lost revenues and health care related expenses that are attributable to COVID-19.

For the 2021 Year and 2020 Year, the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries recorded income of approximately $4.6 million and $13.5 million, respectively, of payments under the CARES Act (“Relief Funds”). Under the Company’s accounting policy, these payments were recorded as Other income – Relief Funds. These funds are not required to be repaid upon attestation and compliance with certain terms and conditions, which could change materially based on evolving grant compliance provisions and guidance provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Currently, the Company can attest and comply with the terms and conditions. The Company will continue to monitor the evolving guidelines and may record adjustments as additional information is released.

Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program (“MAAPP Funds”)

The CARES Act also allowed also for qualified healthcare providers to receive advanced payments under the MAAPP Funds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under this program, healthcare providers could choose to receive advanced payments for future Medicare services provided. The Company applied for and received approval from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) in April 2020. The Company recorded the $14.1 million in advance payments received as a liability. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company repaid the MAAPP Funds of $14.1 million rather than applying them to future services performed.

For the 2021 Year, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Relief Funds, a non-GAAP measure, was $74.3 million, and for the 2020 Year was $56.5 million, and $72.8 million for the pre-pandemic 2019 Year.

This business generates approximately $27.0 million in annual revenue at a margin of approximately 20%. As part of the transaction, USPH also agreed to the future purchase of a separate company under the same ownership that provides physical therapy and rehabilitation services to hospitals and other ancillary providers in a distinct market area. The current owners have the right to put this transaction to USPH in approximately five years, with such right having a $3.5 million fair value at December 31, 2021, as reflected on the Company’s balance sheet in Other long-term liabilities. The fair value of this right will be adjusted in future periods, as appropriate, with any change in fair value reflected in the Company’s income statement.

On December 31, 2021, the Company acquired a 75% interest in a three-clinic physical therapy practice in South Carolina, with the practice’s founder and owner retaining 25%. The purchase price for the 75% equity interest was approximately $3.7 million. The business generates more than $2.7 million in annual revenue and has approximately 31,000 patient visits per year.

The Company’s strategy is to continue acquiring multi-clinic outpatient physical therapy practices, to develop outpatient physical therapy clinics as satellites in existing partnerships and to continue acquiring companies that provide industrial injury prevention services.

Quarterly Dividend

In response to the Company’s strong performance in 2021 and confidence in its future performance, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the Company’s quarterly dividend on February 22, 2022, from $0.38 per share to $0.41 per share, an increase of 7.9%. The Board of Directors subsequently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.41 per share payable on April 8, 2022 to shareholders of record on March 14, 2022.

Management’s Comments

Chris Reading, Chief Executive Officer, said, “I have said this a lot over the past couple of years, but it is worth repeating... I am supremely proud of our entire workforce, across our many partnerships, for the way they have responded to challenge after challenge these past 24 months. This year was no different and yet we were able to navigate through these challenges to create a meaningfully forward year in revenue and profitability and a record year in terms of volumes across our clinic network. It is my distinct privilege to work with so many good people day in and day out. The resolve that has allowed us to excel this past year will be firmly applied to our forward opportunities. Surrounding ourselves with great people who care deeply about all that they do continues to be the secret to our success.”

Carey Hendrickson, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Our team delivered much stronger operating results in 2021 than initially expected coming into the year, a true testament to the quality and resiliency of our team. We are pleased to raise our quarterly dividend rate once again in the first quarter of 2022, which we have raised each year since the inception of our dividend in 2011.”

Management Provides 2022 Earnings Guidance

Management currently expects the Company’s Operating Results for 2022 to be in the range of $42.2 million to $43.5 million, or $3.25 to $3.35 per diluted share, which considers the following:

•	The previously-announced Medicare rate reduction for the full year of 2022 of approximately 0.75%, which is expected to reduce the Company’s 2022 revenue by approximately $1.1 million, or $0.06 per share after non-controlling interest and taxes

•

The previously announced phase-out of sequestration relief which results in a 1% reduction in the rate applied to all Medicare payments for the second quarter of 2022 and a 2% reduction in the rate applied to all Medicare payments in the third and fourth quarters of 2022; this is expected to reduce the Company's 2022 revenue by approximately $1.9 million, or $0.09 per share after non-controlling interest and taxes

•	The previously-announced 15% decrease in rate for care provided to a Medicare patient by a physical therapy assistant effective January 1, 2022, which is expected to reduce the Company’s 2022 revenue by approximately $1.2 million, or $0.06 per share after non-controlling interest and taxes

This earnings range is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 27.1%. Please note that the earnings guidance represents projected Operating Results from existing operations and excludes future acquisitions. The annual guidance figures will not be updated unless there is a material development that causes management to believe that Operating Results will be significantly outside the given range.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that are considered to be forward-looking within the meaning under Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements contain forward-looking information relating to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our Company. These statements (often using words such as “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “appear”, “should” and similar words) involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those we expect. Included among such statements may be those relating to new clinics, availability of personnel and the reimbursement environment. The forward-looking statements are based on our current views and assumptions and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks, uncertainties, and factors, which include, but are not limited to:

•	the multiple effects of the impact of public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, such as the novel strain of COVID-19 and its variants, for which the total financial magnitude cannot be currently estimated;

•	changes in Medicare rules and guidelines and reimbursement or failure of our clinics to maintain their Medicare certification and/or enrollment status;

•	revenue we receive from Medicare and Medicaid being subject to potential retroactive reduction;

•	changes in reimbursement rates or payment methods from third party payors including government agencies, and changes in the deductibles and co-pays owed by patients;

•	compliance with federal and state laws and regulations relating to the privacy of individually identifiable patient information, and associated fines and penalties for failure to comply;

•	competitive, economic or reimbursement conditions in our markets which may require us to reorganize or close certain clinics and thereby incur losses and/or closure costs including the possible write-down or write-off of goodwill and other intangible assets;

•	the impact of COVID-19 related vaccination and/or testing mandates at the federal, state and/or local level, which could have an adverse impact on staffing, revenue, costs and the results of operations:

•	changes as the result of government enacted national healthcare reform;

•	business and regulatory conditions including federal and state regulations;

•	governmental and other third party payor inspections, reviews, investigations and audits, which may result in sanctions or reputational harm and increased costs;

•	revenue and earnings expectations;

•	legal actions, which could subject us to increased operating costs and uninsured liabilities;

•	general economic conditions;

•	availability and cost of qualified physical therapists;

•	personnel productivity and retaining key personnel;

•	competitive environment in the industrial injury prevention services business, which could result in the termination or non-renewal of contractual service arrangements and other adverse financial consequences for that service line;

•	acquisitions, and the successful integration of the operations of the acquired businesses;

•	impact on the business and cash reserves resulting from retirement or resignation of key partners and resulting purchase of their non-controlling interest (minority interests);

•	maintaining our information technology systems with adequate safeguards to protect against cyber-attacks;

•

a security breach of our or our third party vendors’ information technology systems may subject us to potential legal action and reputational harm and may result in a violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act;

•	maintaining clients for which we perform management and other services, as a breach or termination of those contractual arrangements by such clients could cause operating results to be less than expected;

•	maintaining adequate internal controls;

•	maintaining necessary insurance coverage;

•	availability, terms, and use of capital; and

•	weather and other seasonal factors.

See Risk Factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Many factors are beyond our control. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)

(unaudited)

The following tables provide detail of the diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes providing Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA to investors is useful information for comparing the Company's period-to-period results.

Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH diluted shareholders per the consolidated statements of income less gain on sale of partnership interests and clinics plus charges incurred for clinic closure costs and expenses related to executive officer transitions and settlement of a legal matter, all net of taxes and non-controlling interest, if applicable. Operating Results per diluted share, also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest, net of tax, is included in the earnings per basic and diluted share calculation, although it is not included in net income but charged directly to retained earnings.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity-based awards compensation expense, settlement of a legal matter and derecognition of goodwill related to clinic closures. Management believes reporting Adjusted EBITDA is useful information for investors in comparing the Company’s period-to-period results as well as comparing with similar businesses which report adjusted EBITDA as defined by their company.

Management uses Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA (with and without Relief Funds), which eliminates certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as one the principal measures to evaluate and monitor financial performance period over period. Management believes that Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA is useful information for investors to use in comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have different equity structures.

Operating Results and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.

In this earnings release, Management purposefully defined Gross profit excluding closure costs (a non-GAAP measure) and Operating cost excluding closure costs (a non-GAAP measure) as a metric to see the business through the eyes of Management excluding the variability of closure costs. Although closure costs are a recurring cost of our business, due to the business environment in 2020 (primarily the COVID-19 pandemic), Management determined that a number of clinics needed to be closed resulting in unusually high closure costs. Presenting Gross profit excluding closure costs and Operating cost excluding closure costs allows the reader to evaluate our revenue generation performance relative to direct costs of revenue. A reconciliation between the Gross Profit in accordance with GAAP to Gross profit excluding closure costs and Operating cost in accordance with GAAP to Operating cost excluding closure costs has been included in the body of the release.
