Universal Health Services, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Earnings

10/26/2006

KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Universal Health Services, Inc. (NYSE: UHS) announced today that its reported net income was $113.9 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to $8.3 million, or $.15 per diluted share, during the comparable prior year quarter. Reported net income was $225.3 million, or $3.89 per diluted share, during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $228.6 million, or $3.73 per diluted share, during the comparable prior year nine-month period.

Reported income from continuing operations was $114.0 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to $9.5 million, or $.17 per diluted share, during the third quarter of 2005. Reported income from continuing operations was $225.4 million, or $3.89 per diluted share, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $100.8 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.

As indicated on the attached Schedules of Non-GAAP Supplemental Consolidated Statements of Income Information ("Supplemental Schedules"), our income from continuing operations and net income for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 include various items such as: (i) hurricane-related expenses, net of minority interests and income taxes; (ii) hurricane-related insurance recoveries, net of minority interests and income taxes; (iii) prior period effect of supplemental reimbursements from certain states and contractual settlements, net of income taxes; (iv) a previously disclosed charge incurred during the third quarter of 2006 to record the aggregate present value of the future funding of a portion of a gift from our Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President to The College of William & Mary ("W&M Funding"); (v) favorable income tax adjustment to reduce reserves due to the expiration of statute of limitations in a foreign jurisdiction, and; (vi) gains on divestitures, net of income taxes (included in net income for nine-month period ended September 30, 2005).

After adjusting for the items discussed above applicable to each period presented, as indicated on the attached Supplemental Schedules, our adjusted net income during the three-month period ended September 30, 2006 was $30.6 million, or $.54 per diluted share, as compared to $28.4 million, or $.52 per diluted share, during the third quarter of 2005. Our adjusted net income during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 was $119.4 million, or $2.10 per diluted share, as compared to $125.2 million, or $2.09 per diluted share, during the comparable prior year nine-month period.

Our adjusted income from continuing operations during the three-month period ended September 30, 2006 was $30.7 million, or $.54 per diluted share, as compared to $29.6 million, or $.54 per diluted share, during the three- month period ended September 30, 2005. Our adjusted income from continuing operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 was $119.5 million, or $2.10 per diluted share, as compared to $123.9 million, or $2.07 per diluted share, during the comparable prior year nine-month period.

Net revenues increased 7% to $1.04 billion during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to $971 million during the third quarter of 2005. Net revenues increased 5% to $3.13 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $2.97 billion during the prior year nine-month period. Impacting our net revenues during the 2006 periods was the loss of revenues generated at our acute care facilities in Louisiana which were damaged and closed since the third quarter of 2005 as a result of Hurricane Katrina. On a combined basis, these facilities generated net revenues of $40 million and $166 million during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Also, as previously disclosed, on January 1st of this year we implemented a formal company-wide uninsured discount policy which has had the effect of lowering both net revenues and the provision for doubtful accounts by approximately $17 million and $46 million during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, respectively. The implementation of this uninsured discount policy did not have a significant impact on our 2006 net income.

At our acute care hospitals owned during both periods, inpatient admissions increased 1.9% and patient days increased 4.8% during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to the comparable 2005 quarter. Inpatient admissions increased 1.5% and patient days increased 2.4% during the nine- month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the comparable prior year period. Since our acute care facilities located in Louisiana have been closed since the third quarter of 2005, the inpatient statistics for those facilities have been excluded from the three and nine-month periods of each year. At our behavioral health care facilities owned during both quarters, inpatient admissions increased 3.0% and patient days increased 1.2% during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to the comparable 2005 quarter. Inpatient admissions increased 3.5% and patient days increased 1.7% during the nine- month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the comparable prior year period.

Our consolidated operating margin, as calculated on the attached Supplemental Schedules, was 12.2% and 13.0% during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The operating margin at our acute care hospitals owned during both periods ("same facility basis") remained unchanged at 11.8% during each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. On a same facility basis, the operating margin at our behavioral health hospitals increased to 24.7% during the third quarter of 2006 from 22.7% during the comparable quarter of the prior year. Contributing to the decrease in consolidated operating margin during the third quarter of 2006, as compared to the comparable prior year quarter, were lower operating margins experienced at our behavioral health facilities acquired during the fourth quarter of 2005 and the $4.5 million charge incurred during the third quarter of 2006 in connection with the W&M Funding.

Our consolidated operating margin was 13.4% and 13.9% during the nine- month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. On a same facility basis, the operating margin at our acute care hospitals decreased to 13.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to 14.4% during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. On a same facility basis, the operating margin at our behavioral health hospitals increased to 25.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to 24.5% during the comparable prior year period.

Our provision for doubtful accounts as a percentage of net revenues was 9.4% and 10.6% during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 8.3% and 9.5% during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Exclusive of the impact of the uninsured discount implemented at the beginning of this year, as a percentage of net revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts would have been 10.8% and 9.6% during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006.

Effective July 1, 2006, the pharmacy services for our acute care facilities were brought in-house from an outsourced vendor and as a result of this change, during the third quarter of 2006, we experienced an increase in our supplies expense and salaries, wages and benefits expense and a decrease in our other operating expenses. The transition of our pharmacy services did not have a significant impact on our operating margin or net income during the third quarter of 2006.

As previously announced during the third quarter of 2006, we reached an agreement with our insurance carrier to settle all claims related to damage sustained at our facilities located in Louisiana as a result of Hurricane Katrina. Including amounts collected from our other insurance carriers in 2005 and 2006, we received total insurance proceeds of $264 million which represented approximately 95% of our insurance policy limits.

This press release contains forward-looking statements based on current management expectations. Numerous factors, including those disclosed herein, those related to healthcare industry trends and those detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as set forth in "Risk Factors" on pages 24 through 30 and in "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" on pages 39 and 40 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005), may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward- looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine our future results are beyond our capability to control or predict. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and therefore actual results may differ materially. Readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements which reflect management's view only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

We believe that operating income, operating margin, adjusted income from continuing operations, adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures ("GAAP" is Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America), are helpful to our investors as measures of our operating performance. In addition, we believe that comparing and discussing our financial results based on these measures, as calculated, is helpful to our investors since it neutralizes the effect in each year of items that are nonrecurring or non-operational in nature including items such as, but not limited to, gains on sales of assets and businesses, hurricane-related expenses and insurance recoveries, the W&M Funding, and other amounts reflected in the current or prior year financial statements that relate to prior periods. To obtain a complete understanding of our financial performance these measures should be examined in connection with net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in this Report or in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. Since the items included or excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance under GAAP, these measures should not be considered to be alternatives to net income as a measure of our operating performance or profitability. Since these measures, as presented, are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to use GAAP measures when evaluating our financial performance.
