Management Commentary
Steve Griggs, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are very pleased with our financial results this quarter which were driven by the outstanding efforts of our combined team. Our results were largely driven by a full quarter of AeroCare and realization of integration synergies. Our business continues to grow organically as well as through strategic acquisitions in key markets which complement our national platform. In the second quarter we acquired several excellent businesses including Spiro Health Services, a provider of home medical equipment and supplies, and Healthy Living Medical Supplies, a provider of continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps which strategically expands our diabetes footprint in the Midwest.”
Mr. Griggs continued, “It has been six months since the acquisition of AeroCare, and we have already achieved many of the ambitious goals we set out to accomplish including improving patient access, patient experience, and clinical outcomes. With these goals in mind, we continue to execute on our strategy of organic growth, improving operations, and closing accretive acquisitions.”
Josh Parnes, President, commented, “We have made great progress towards our strategic roadmap within operational technologies and chronic disease management to enhance our overall business. As an example, we are very pleased with the results of our e-prescribe technology in diabetes which has improved patient and provider satisfaction through reduced cycle time. While we are very excited in the results we’ve already seen, we’re even more optimistic about our continued transformation journey towards improving patient outcomes and reducing the overall cost of care.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projections, estimates and forecasts of revenue and other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity and expectations and the Company’s acquisition pipeline. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of AdaptHealth management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on, by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company.
These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the outcome of judicial and administrative proceedings to which the Company may become a party or governmental investigations to which the Company may become subject that could interrupt or limit the Company’s operations, result in adverse judgments, settlements or fines and create negative publicity; changes in the Company’s clients’ preferences, prospects and the competitive conditions prevailing in the healthcare sector; and the impact of the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the Company’s response to it. A further description of such risks and uncertainties can be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently knows or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and Financial Guidance
This release contains non-GAAP financial guidance, which is adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that are evaluated on an individual basis. These non-GAAP items are adjusted after considering their quantitative and qualitative aspects and typically have one or more of the following characteristics, such as being highly variable, difficult to project, unusual in nature, significant to the results of a particular period or not indicative of future operating results. Similar charges or gains were recognized in prior periods and will likely reoccur in future periods.
The Company uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex, which are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, to analyze its financial results and believes that they are useful to investors, as a supplement to U.S. GAAP measures. In addition, the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and make investments under its existing credit agreement is governed, in part, by its ability to satisfy tests based on a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex.
The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s financial performance. The Company’s business requires significant investment in equipment purchases to maintain its patient equipment inventory. Some equipment title transfers to patients’ ownership after a prescribed number of fixed monthly payments. Equipment that does not transfer wears out or often times is not recovered after a patient’s use of the equipment terminates. The Company uses this metric as the profitability measure in its incentive compensation plans that have a profitability component and to evaluate acquisition opportunities, where it is most often used for purposes of contingent consideration arrangements. In addition, the Company’s debt agreements contain covenants that use a variation of Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. For purposes of this metric, patient equipment capital expenditure is measured as the value of the patient equipment received during the accounting period without regard to whether the equipment is purchased or financed through lease transactions.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Patient Equipment Capex are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity.
There is no reliable or reasonably estimable comparable GAAP measure for the Company’s non-GAAP financial guidance because the Company is not able to reliably predict the impact of certain items, including equity-based compensation expense, transaction costs, changes in fair value of both the contingent consideration common shares liability and the warrant liability, and other non-recurring (income) expense in full year 2021. As a result, reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. The variability of the specified items may have a significant and unpredictable impact on the Company’s future GAAP results.
In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP financial guidance in this release excludes the impact of any potential additional future strategic acquisitions and any specified items that have not yet been identified and quantified. The guidance also excludes macro-economic effects due to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not yet quantifiable. The financial guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties applicable to all forward-looking statements as described elsewhere in this press release.

(b) Represents equity-based compensation expense for awards granted to employees and non-employee directors. The higher expense in the 2021 period is due to overall increased equity compensation grant activity in that period, as well as expense resulting from accelerated vesting of certain awards in that period, including accelerated vesting of certain awards in connection with the separation of the Company’s former Co-CEO.
(c) Represents transaction costs related to acquisitions.
(d) Represents severance costs related to acquisition integration and internal AdaptHealth restructuring and workforce reduction activities.
(e) Represents a non-cash charge or gain for the change in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration common shares liability.
(f) Represents a non-cash charge or gain for the change in the estimated fair value of the warrant liability.
(g) The 2021 year-to-date period includes $1.5 million of expenses related to legal and other costs associated with the separation of the Company’s former Co-CEO, $0.9 million of expenses associated with legal settlements for employee and other matters, $1.0 million of expenses associated with lease terminations, a $0.3 million charge for the increase in the fair value of a contingent consideration liability related to an acquisition, and $0.2 million of other non-recurring charges, offset by a gain of $0.5 million for the receipt of earnout proceeds in connection with the sale of an investment. The 2020 year-to-date period includes $2.9 million of reductions in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities related to acquisitions, a $0.6 million gain related to the sale of an investment, offset by a $1.5 million expense related to a transition services agreement executed in connection with an acquisition completed in 2020.
(h) Represents the value of the patient equipment obtained during the respective period without regard to whether the equipment is purchased or financed through lease transactions.
