Universal Health Services, Inc. Revises Upward the Gain on Sale of French Assets, No Effect on Income From Continuing Operations
08/01/2005
KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Aug. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Universal Health Services, Inc. (NYSE: UHS) announced today that its previously released Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 included an after-tax gain on the sale of our 81.5% ownership interest in Medi-Partenaires which was understated by $12.4 million or $.19 per diluted share. The actual after-tax gain on the sale amounts to $120.7 million or $1.89 per diluted share which is included in income from discontinued operations, net of income tax expense. This revision has no effect on the previously released balance sheet. It reflects the cumulative translation adjustment, previously included in stockholders' equity on the balance sheet, reclassified through the income statement upon the sale of the French assets.
As a result of this revision, reported net income increases to $158.8 million or $2.53 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and $220.3 million or $3.51 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005. This revision had no impact in either period on our income from continuing operations and income from continuing operations per diluted share or our adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share (as calculated on the attached Schedules of Non-GAAP Supplemental Consolidated Statements of Income Information).
Income from continuing operations and income from continuing operations per diluted share remain unchanged as previously reported at $36.6 million or $.61 per diluted share during the three months ended June 30, 2005 and $91.3 million or $1.50 per diluted share during the six months ended June 30, 2005. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share also remain unchanged as previously reported at $38.2 million or $.64 per diluted share during the three months ended June 30, 2005 and $95.8 million or $1.57 per diluted share during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

This press release contains forward-looking statements based on current management expectations. Numerous factors, including those related to healthcare industry trends and those detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as set forth in "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" on pages 17 and 18 of our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 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 such as property write-downs, gains on sales of assets and businesses or 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, 2004. 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. Below are Schedules of Non-GAAP Supplemental Consolidated Income Statement Information which reconcile these measures to net income for the periods presented.
