(Nasdaq:DVCR), a premier provider of long-term care services, today announced its results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014. The Company's revenue grew to $93.7 million, an increase of 23.9% year-over-year.
On February 27, 2015, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.055 per share per common share payable to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2015, to be paid on April 14, 2015.
Fourth Quarter 2014 Highlights
-
Net Revenue increased 23.9% to $93.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 from $75.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, primarily due to the eight buildings acquired during 2014, as well as the incremental increase in the ten buildings acquired during 2013. Same-store centers experienced an increase of $4.2 million on favorable census and rate results.
-
General and administrative costs continued to decline as a percentage of net revenue at 6.5% of revenue as compared to 6.8% the same period a year ago.
-
Operating income increased to $1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to a loss of $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.
-
EPS from continuing operations improved to income of $0.11 in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to a loss of $0.18 in the fourth quarter of 2013.
-
EBITDA was $3.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. On an annual basis, EBITDA was $13.1 million in 2014 compared to $(1.5) million in 2013.
- As previously announced, the Company purchased a 94-bed skilled nursing facility in Glasgow, Kentucky, and assumed operations of an 85-bed skilled nursing facility in Hutchinson, Kansas, effective February 1, 2015. These facilities are expected to contribute in excess of $9 million in annual revenues.
CEO Remarks
Commenting on the results, Kelly Gill, Diversicare's CEO, stated, "The results of the fourth quarter, and 2014 as a whole, reflect the transformation and development we have worked diligently to accomplish over the past several years. We have successfully developed a scalable operating platform to support our growth and quality of care initiatives, which has been the foundation for the improvements in our financial results.
"During the year, we completed several portfolio transactions, including eight facility acquisitions and the disposition of our West Virginia portfolio. Our improved financial results for the year include the contribution of all of these transactions. We have now added twenty-three facilities through our acquisition activities since we began our efforts to grow and scale the Company." Mr. Gill continued. "The experience of our management team and the demonstrated capabilities of our operating platform have allowed us to accomplish several important goals. These overarching goals include growth in our portfolio, improved financial performance of both new acquisitions and same store operations, reduced G&A as a percent of revenue, and most importantly, improved clinical outcomes. Accordingly, we believe we have demonstrated our ability to perform on multiple dimensions which are the key drivers of our business.
"Our year-over-year revenue growth of 24% is reflective not only of our acquisition activities, but also includes a revenue increase of more than 7% in our same-store nursing centers. Additionally, we have leveraged our G&A expenses as this number has declined as a percent of revenue. This is notable given the extensive amount of activities undertaken for new facility integration."
Mr. Gill concluded, "We look forward to sustaining the momentum we have built over the last couple of years. We are pleased to have recently closed two new acquisitions already for the year and we believe we are positioned to continue the growth and evolution of the business."

| Medicaid | $ 163.49 | $ 158.51 |
| Managed Care | $ 391.77 | $ 375.18 |
Patient Revenues
Patient revenues were $93.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and $75.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to the contribution of newly leased and newly acquired centers. The following table summarizes the revenue increases attributable to our portfolio growth (in thousands):
| Three Months Ended | |||
| December 31, | |||
| 2014 | 2013 | Change | |
| Same-store revenue | $ 62,765 | $ 58,522 | $ 4,243 |
| 2013 acquisition revenue | 19,141 | 17,141 | 2,000 |
| 2014 acquisition revenue | 11,843 | — | 11,843 |
| Total revenue | $ 93,749 | $ 75,663 | $ 18,086 |
The overall increase in revenue of $18.1 million is primarily attributable to revenue contributions from acquisition activity in 2014 of $11.8 million, as well as an incremental increase in revenues from 2013 acquisitions of $2.0 million, as a result of having a full year of maturation under the Company's operating platform during 2014. The balance of the increase in revenues year-over-year is attributable to increases in same-store revenue of $4.2 million which is explained in more detail below.
The average Medicaid rate per patient day for same-store nursing centers in 2014 increased 2.6% compared to 2013, resulting in an increase in revenue of $0.8 million. This average rate per day for Medicaid patients is the result of rate increases in certain states and increasing patient acuity levels. The average Medicare rate per patient day for same-store nursing centers in 2014 increased 3.2% compared to 2013, resulting in an increase in revenue of $0.5 million also related to our ability to attract and provide care for patients with increased acuity levels.
Our total average daily census increased by approximately 15.3% compared to 2013 on a consolidated basis, but was primarily attributable to the aforementioned acquisition activity. On a same-store basis, our Medicare and Managed Care average daily census for 2014 increased compared to 2013, resulting in an increase in revenue of $1.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The Medicaid average daily census decreased in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to the fourth quarter of 2013 offsetting the increases above by $0.9 million.
Expenses
Operating expense increased in the fourth quarter of 2014 to $75.1 million compared to $61.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, driven primarily by the $9.9 million increase in operating costs attributable to the nursing centers acquired in 2014. Operating expense remained relatively flat as a percentage of revenue at 80.1% for the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to 80.7% in the fourth quarter of 2013, demonstrating our ability to control costs at newly added nursing centers.
| Three Months Ended | |||
| December 31, | |||
| 2014 | 2013 | Change | |
| Same-store operating expenses | $ 49,528 | $ 46,727 | $ 2,801 |
| 2013 acquisition operating expenses | 15,673 | 14,322 | 1,351 |
| 2014 acquisition operating expenses | 9,887 | — | 9,887 |
| Total revenue | $ 75,088 | $ 61,049 | $ 14,039 |
The largest component of operating expenses is wages. Considering the aforementioned addition of the new centers, we experienced an increase to $43.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to $35.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $7.9 million, or 22.2%. While wages increased overall, wages as a percentage of revenue decreased in the fourth quarter of 2014 to 46.6% as compared to 47.1% in the fourth quarter of 2013, while continuing to improve upon our high standards of quality care.
Professional liability expense was $1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.4 million. The increase is primarily attributable to insurance premiums paid for commercial insurance policies utilized for new acquisitions. We were engaged in 51 professional liability lawsuits as of December 31, 2014, compared to 54 as of December 31, 2013. Our quarterly cash expenditures for professional liability costs of continuing operations were $1.1 million and $1.5 million for 2014 and 2013, respectively. Professional liability expense and cash expenditures fluctuate from year to year based respectively on the results of our third-party professional liability actuarial studies, insurance premiums for commercial policies, and on the costs incurred in defending and settling existing claims.
General and administrative expense was $6.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to $5.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.9 million. As a percent of revenues, general and administrative expenses declined to 6.5% in 2014 as compared to 6.8% in 2013.
We incurred certain restructuring charges in connection with the termination of our existing lease for 11 Arkansas nursing centers totaling $0.5 million in 2013. These costs included items such as records management, severance, and legal expenses associated with the Arkansas disposition, but not related to the operations of the facilities. As these expenses were incurred in 2013, the $0.5 million in restructuring expense represents an decrease as compared to the same period in 2014.
Receivables
Our net receivables balance increased $8.6 million to $41.3 million as of December 31, 2014 from $32.7 million as of December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to $5.5 million in receivables associated with our newly acquired facilities that are currently undergoing the Medicare and Medicaid change in ownership certification process.
