CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains historical information, as well as forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that involve known and unknown risks and relate to, among other things, future events, projections, financial guidance, legislative or regulatory developments, strategy or growth opportunities, our future financial performance, our projected business results, or our projected capital expenditures. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. In some cases, the reader can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “targets,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this report, and the Company undertakes no duty to publicly update or revise such forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates based upon current information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Actual events or results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. While it is impossible to identify all such factors, factors which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those estimated by the Company include, but are not limited to, our ability to execute on our strategic plans, regulatory and other developments impacting the markets for our services, changes in reimbursement rates, general economic conditions, our ability to attract and retain key management personnel and healthcare professionals, potential disruptions or breaches of our or our vendors’ information systems, the outcome of litigation, our ability to successfully complete and integrate de novo developments, acquisitions, investments, and joint ventures, and our ability to control costs, particularly labor and employee benefit costs. Our Form 10 Registration Statement dated June 14, 2022 and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, each of which can be found on the Company’s website at http://investors.ehab.com, discuss other risks and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement in this report.

1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Organization and Description of Business—
Enhabit, Inc. (“Enhabit,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company”), incorporated in Delaware in 2014, provides a comprehensive range of Medicare-certified skilled home health and hospice services in 34 states, with a concentration in the southern half of the United States. We manage our operations and disclose financial information using two reportable segments: (1) home health and (2) hospice. See Note 9, Segment Reporting. Prior to July 1, 2022, the Company operated as a reporting segment of Encompass Health Corporation (“Encompass”).
On December 9, 2020, Encompass announced a formal process to explore strategic alternatives for its home health and hospice business. On January 19, 2022, Encompass announced its home health and hospice business would be rebranded and operate under the name Enhabit Home Health & Hospice. In March 2022, we changed our name from Encompass Health Home Health Holdings, Inc. to Enhabit, Inc.
Separation from Encompass—
On July 1, 2022, Encompass completed the previously announced separation of the Company through the distribution of all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Enhabit to the stockholders of record of Encompass (the “Distribution”) as of the close of business on June 24, 2022 (the “Record Date”). The Distribution was effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on July 1, 2022. The Distribution was structured as a pro rata distribution of one share of Enhabit common stock for every two shares of Encompass common stock held of record as of the Record Date. No fractional shares were distributed. A cash payment was made in lieu of any fractional shares. As a result of the Distribution, Enhabit is now an independent public company and its common stock is listed under the symbol “EHAB” on the New York Stock Exchange (the “Separation”).
The Separation was completed pursuant to a separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”) and other agreements with Encompass related to the Separation, including, but not limited to, a tax matters agreement (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), an employee matters agreement (the “Employee Matters Agreement”), and a transition services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement” or “TSA”). Following the Separation, certain functions continue to be provided by Encompass under the TSA or are being performed using the Company’s own resources or third-party providers. The Company incurred certain costs in its establishment as an independent, publicly-traded company and expects to incur ongoing additional costs associated with operating as an independent, publicly-traded company.
In anticipation of the Distribution, we transferred the “Encompass” trade name with a book value of $135.2 million and the related deferred tax liabilities with a book value of $31.0 million to Encompass as they will continue to operate under the Encompass brand.
All share and earnings per share information has been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to reflect the Distribution.
See also Note 5, Long-term Debt.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation—
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 (the “Form 10”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 25, 2022, as amended June 9, 2022 and June 14, 2022. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim financial information. Certain information and note disclosures included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted in these interim statements, as allowed by such SEC rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from audited financial statements, but it does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. However, we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The unaudited results of operations for the interim periods shown in these financial statements are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements recognize all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for each interim period presented.
Prior to July 1, 2022, we existed and functioned as part of the consolidated business of Encompass. The results related to the periods prior to July 1, 2022 that are included within the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Encompass as if the Company had operated on a stand-alone basis during the periods presented and were prepared utilizing the legal entity approach, in accordance with GAAP, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Prior to July 1, 2022, the Company was reported as a single reportable segment within Encompass’s reportable segments and did not operate as a stand-alone company. Accordingly, Encompass historically reported the financial position and the related results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company as a component of Encompass’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include an allocation of expenses related to certain Encompass corporate functions as discussed in Note 10, Related Party Transactions for periods prior to July 1, 2022. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements also include revenues and expenses directly attributable to the Company and assets and liabilities specifically attributable to the Company. Encompass’s third-party debt and related interest expense have not been attributed to the Company because the Company is not the primary legal obligor of the debt and the borrowings are not specifically identifiable to the Company. However, subsequent to April 23, 2020, the Company was a guarantor for Encompass’s credit agreement and senior debt. In connection with the Distribution, the Company was released from its guarantee of Encompass’s indebtedness. The Company maintains its own cash management system and does not participate in a centralized cash management arrangement with Encompass.
The income tax amounts in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been calculated based on a separate return methodology and are presented as if our income gave rise to separate federal and state consolidated income tax return filing obligations in the respective jurisdictions in which we operate. In addition to various separate state and local income tax filings, we joined with Encompass in various U.S. federal, state and local consolidated income tax filings prior to the Separation. See Note 7, Income Taxes, for information related to our Tax Sharing Agreement with Encompass. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of all wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries over which we exercise control, and, when applicable, entities in which we have a controlling financial interest.
We use the equity method to account for our investments in entities we do not control, but for which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. Consolidated Net income attributable to Enhabit, Inc. includes our share of the net earnings of these entities.
We eliminate all intercompany accounts and transactions within the Company from our financial results. Transactions between the Company and Encompass have been included in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The transfers with Encompass that are not expected to be settled in cash, are reflected in stockholders’ equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and within Capital in Excess of Par Value on the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. Within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, these transfers are treated as an operating, financing or noncash activity determined by the nature of the transaction. Transactions between the Company and Encompass are considered related party transactions. Refer to Note 10, Related Party Transactions, for more information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements —
We do not believe any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards will have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
2.Business Combinations:
On January 1, 2022, we acquired a 50% equity interest from Frontier Home Health and Hospice, LLC in a joint venture with Saint Alphonsus Health System (“Saint Alphonsus”) which operates home health and hospice locations in Boise, Idaho. The total purchase price was $15.9 million and was funded on December 31, 2021. This acquisition was made to expand our footprint in this geographic area. This transaction was not material to our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
We accounted for this transaction under the acquisition method of accounting and reported the results of operations of the acquired locations from the date of acquisition. Assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and noncontrolling interests were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Estimated fair values were based on various valuation methodologies including: an income approach using primarily discounted cash flow techniques for the noncompete and license intangible assets; and an income approach utilizing the relief-from-royalty method for the trade name intangible asset. The aforementioned income methods utilize management’s estimates of future operating results and cash flows discounted using a weighted average cost of capital that reflects market participant assumptions. For all other assets and liabilities, the fair value was assumed to represent carrying value due to their short maturities. The excess of the fair value of the consideration conveyed over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. All goodwill recorded reflects our expectations of favorable growth opportunities in the home health and hospice markets based on positive demographic trends. At least $14.4 million of the goodwill recorded as a result of this transaction is deductible for federal income tax purposes.
The fair values recorded were based upon a preliminary valuation. Estimates and assumptions used in such valuation are subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). We expect to continue to obtain information to assist us in determining the fair value of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period.
The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date were as follows (in millions):

For information regarding acquisitions completed in 2021, see Note 2, Business Combinations, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
We acquired four Caring Hearts Hospice locations in Texas on October 1, 2022, and we acquired one Unity Hospice location in Arizona on November 1, 2022. The aggregate total purchase price of these acquisitions was approximately $18 million. The initial accounting for these acquisitions is not yet complete.
3.Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”):
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we consolidated two limited partnership-like entities that are VIEs and of which we are the primary beneficiary. Our ownership percentages in these entities are 60% and 90% as of September 30, 2022. Through partnership and management agreements with or governing these entities, we manage these entities and handle all day-to-day operating decisions. Accordingly, we have the decision making power over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs and an obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. These decisions and significant activities include, but are not limited to, marketing efforts, oversight of patient admissions, medical training, nurse and therapist scheduling, provision of healthcare services, billing, collections and creation and maintenance of medical records. The terms of the agreements governing the VIEs prohibit us from using the assets of the VIEs to satisfy the obligations of other entities.

4.Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:
We are required to test our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as least annually, absent any triggering events that would accelerate an impairment assessment. Absent any triggering events, we perform this testing as of October 1st of each year.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we identified potential impairment triggering events, including the impact of ongoing reimbursement and labor pressures, the Federal Reserve further increasing the risk-free interest rate and a decline in our stock price, and determined a quantitative analysis of our two reporting units should be performed. We estimated the fair value of our reporting units using the income approach and market approach. Based on the results of the quantitative analysis, no adjustments to the carrying value of goodwill for each of the reporting units were necessary during the three months ended September 30, 2022.
As of September 30, 2022, the fair value of our home health reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by less than 5%. The home health reporting unit has an allocated goodwill balance of $0.9 billion.The assumptions used in the quantitative analysis incorporate a number of significant estimates and judgments, including the discount rate, revenue and gross margin forecast, timing of acquisitions and de novo openings and long-term growth rate. While management believes the assumptions used are reasonable and commensurate with the views of a market participant, there is also uncertainty in general economic and market conditions. The result of the analysis is sensitive to changes in key assumptions, such as assumed future reimbursement rates, rising interest rates and labor costs and delays in our ability to complete acquisitions and de novo openings, which could negatively impact our forecasted cash flows and result in an impairment charge in future periods.

In June 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that consists of a $400 million term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) and a $350 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Term Loan A Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities mature five years from the closing date thereof. Interest on the loans under the Credit Facilities is calculated by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable interest rate margin. Enhabit may voluntarily prepay outstanding loans under the Credit Facilities at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to SOFR loans. The Term Loan A Facility contains customary mandatory prepayments, including with respect to proceeds from asset sales and from certain incurrences of indebtedness.
The Term Loan A Facility amortizes by an amount per annum equal to 5.0% of the outstanding principal amount thereon as of the closing date, payable in equal quarterly installments, with the balance being payable on the date that is five years after the closing of the Term Loan A Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility provides us with the ability to borrow and obtain letters of credit, which will be subject to a $75 million sublimit in amounts available to be drawn at any time prior to the date that is five years after the closing of the Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations under the Credit Facilities will be guaranteed by our existing and future wholly-owned domestic material subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities will be secured by first priority liens on substantially all the assets of Enhabit and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for secured financings of this type, including limitations with respect to liens, fundamental changes, indebtedness, restricted payments, investments and affiliate transactions, in each case, subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. In addition, the Credit Facilities

will obligate us to maintain certain maximum total net leverage ratios and a minimum interest coverage ratio. As of September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Facilities.
On June 30, 2022, we drew the full $400 million of the Term Loan A Facility and $170 million on the Revolving Credit Facility. The net proceeds of $566.6 million were distributed to Encompass prior to the completion of the Distribution. As of September 30, 2022, amounts drawn under the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility had an interest rate of 4.9%. For additional information on the Separation, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
On October 20, 2022, we entered into an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap has a $200.0 million notional value and a maturity date of October 20, 2025. Beginning in October 2022, we receive the one-month SOFR and pay a fixed rate of interest of 4.3%.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values for our long-term debt are presented in the following table (in millions):

Fair values for our long-term debt and financial commitments are determined using inputs, including quoted prices in nonactive markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly, or Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, “Fair Value Measurements” to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
6.Stock-Based Payments:
Prior to July 1, 2022, the Company’s employees and board of directors participated in Encompass’s various stock-based plans, which are described in the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10. On July 1, 2022, all unvested Encompass restricted stock awards (“RSA”), performance units and stock options to purchase shares issued to our employees were canceled and replaced with restricted stock and options to purchase shares issued under the Enhabit 2022 Omnibus Performance Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”). This represented a modification (the “Modification”) of outstanding stock-based compensation awards. See further discussion of the 2022 Plan in the Form 10.
Prior to the Separation, Encompass issued a total of 128,000 RSAs to members of our management team. Approximately 47,000 of these awards contain only a service condition, while the remainder contain both a service and a performance condition. Additionally, Encompass granted approximately 22,000 stock options to a member of our management team. The fair value of these awards and options was determined using the policies described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 10, Stock-Based Payments, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
As a result of the Modification, all outstanding stock-based compensation of Encompass stock awarded to Enhabit employees were converted to Enhabit stock using a conversion rate that retained the fair value of the awards immediately prior to the Modification.
All performance based RSAs were measured immediately prior to the Modification and the number of shares to be issued upon vesting was determined and these awards were converted to restricted stock awards of Enhabit that vest based upon a service condition. All service based RSAs were converted to restricted stock awards of Enhabit that vest based upon a service condition. The outstanding options to purchase shares of Encompass stock were converted to options to purchase shares of Enhabit stock. There was no additional compensation cost as a result of the Modification.

(Unaudited)
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, Enhabit issued a total of 273,000 RSAs to members of our management team. All of these awards contain only a service condition. Additionally, Enhabit issued a total of 110,000 restricted stock units (“RSU”) to members of our board of directors. The fair value of these awards was determined using the policies described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 10, Stock-Based Payments, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
Included in the allocation of expenses related to certain Encompass functions are stock compensation expenses resulting from RSAs, RSUs and stock options totaling $0.0 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $1.1 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Total unrecognized compensation cost for unvested stock-based compensation is $15.1 million and the weighted average remaining vesting period is 2.4 years as of September 30, 2022.
7.Income Taxes:
Our Income tax expense of $2.8 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily resulted from the application of our estimated effective blended federal and state income tax rate. Our Income tax expense of $17.9 million and $26.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily resulted from the application of our estimated effective blended federal and state income tax rate.
On March 27, 2020, former President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the ‘‘CARES Act’’), which includes provisions relating to net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property and deferral of employer payroll taxes. The CARES Act did not materially impact our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, although it has impacted the timing of cash payments for taxes. Deferred payments of social security taxes totaled $14.9 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of which is included in Accrued payroll in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Prior to July 1, 2022, the Company joined Encompass in the filing of various consolidated federal, state and local income tax returns and was a party to an income tax allocation agreement (the “Tax Sharing Agreement”). Under the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Company paid to or received from Encompass the amount, if any, by which the Encompass’s income tax liability was affected by virtue of inclusion of the Company in the consolidated income tax returns of Encompass. Effectively, that arrangement resulted in the Company’s annual income tax provision being computed, with adjustments, as if the Company filed separate consolidated income tax returns.
At the Distribution, the Company entered into the Tax Matters Agreement with Encompass, which terminated the existing Tax Sharing Agreement. The Tax Matters Agreement governs the Company’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes (including responsibility for taxes arising in the ordinary course of business and taxes, if any, incurred as a result of any failure of the Distribution to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes), entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes, preparation of tax returns, control of tax contests and other matters.
In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement imposes certain restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries until the second anniversary of the Distribution (including restrictions on share issuances, business combinations, sales of assets and similar transactions) that are designed to preserve the tax-free status of the Distribution and certain related transactions. The Tax Matters Agreement provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities in the event the Distribution or certain related transactions are not tax-free. In general, under the Tax Matters Agreement, each party is responsible for any taxes imposed on Encompass or the Company that arise from the failure of the Distribution or certain related transactions to qualify as a transaction that is generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 355 of the Code, to the extent that the failure to so qualify is attributable to actions, events or transactions relating to such party’s respective stock, assets or business, or a breach of the relevant covenants made by that party in the Tax Matters Agreement.

8.Contingencies and Other Commitments:
We operate in a highly regulated industry in which healthcare providers are routinely subject to litigation. As a result, various lawsuits, claims, and legal and regulatory proceedings have been and can be expected to be instituted or asserted against us. The resolution of any such lawsuits, claims, or legal and regulatory proceedings could materially and adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in a given period.
We recorded $8.0 million for claims made against the Company that are probable of loss and reasonably estimable as liabilities within Other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022. We also recorded $8.0 million related to such claims that are recoverable based on the Company’s insurance policies within Other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022.
9.Segment Reporting:
Our internal financial reporting and management structure is focused on the major types of services provided by the Company. We manage our operations using two operating segments that are also our reportable segments: (1) home health and (2) hospice. These reportable operating segments are consistent with information used by our chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker, to assess performance and allocate resources.The following is a brief description of our reportable segments:
•Home Health - Our home health operations represent the nation’s fourth largest provider of Medicare-certified skilled home health services in terms of Medicare revenues. We operate home health agencies in 34 states, with a concentration in the southern half of the United States. As of September 30, 2022, the Company operates 250 home health agencies. We are the sole owner of 239 of these locations. We retain 50.0% to 81.0% ownership in the remaining 11 jointly owned locations. Our home health services include a comprehensive range of Medicare-certified home nursing services to adult patients in need of care. These services include, among others, skilled nursing, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, medical social work, and home health aide services.
•Hospice - Our hospice operations represent the nation’s twelfth largest provider of Medicare-certified hospice services in terms of Medicare revenues. We operate hospice agencies in 22 states, with a concentration in the southern half of the United States. As of September 30, 2022, the Company operates 100 hospice agencies. We are the sole owner of 96 of these locations. We retain 50.0% to 90.0% ownership in the remaining four jointly owned locations. Our hospice services include in-home services to terminally ill patients and their families to address patients’ physical needs, including pain control and symptom management, and to provide emotional and spiritual support.

The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10. All revenues for our services are generated through external customers. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, “Net Service Revenue,” for the disaggregation of our revenues. No corporate overhead is allocated to either of our reportable segments. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance of our segments and allocates resources to them based on adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Segment Adjusted EBITDA”). Segment assets are not reviewed by our chief operating decision maker and therefore are not disclosed below.

10.Related Party Transactions:
In connection with the Separation, we entered into several agreements with Encompass that govern the relationship of the parties following the Distribution, including a Separation and Distribution Agreement, a Transition Services Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement and an Employee Matters Agreement. The Separation and Distribution Agreement contains provisions that, among other things, relate to (i) assets, liabilities, and contracts to be transferred, assumed, and assigned to each of Enhabit and Encompass as part of the Separation, (ii) cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of the Enhabit business with Enhabit and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of Encompass’s remaining business with Encompass, (iii) procedures with respect to claims subject to indemnification and related matters, (iv) the allocation between Enhabit and Encompass of rights and obligations under existing insurance policies with respect to occurrences prior to completion of the Distribution, as well as the right to proceeds and the obligation to incur certain deductibles under certain insurance policies, and (v) procedures governing Enhabit’s and Encompass’s obligations and allocations of liabilities with respect to ongoing litigation matters that may implicate each of Enhabit’s business and Encompass’s business.
Allocation of Corporate Expenses
Encompass provided the Company with certain services, including, but not limited to, executive oversight, treasury, legal, accounting, human resources, tax, internal audit, financial reporting, information technology and investor relations. Some of these services continue to be provided by Encompass to the Company on a temporary basis under the Transition Services Agreement. Our condensed consolidated financial statements through September 30, 2022 include an allocation of these costs for the period prior to July 1, 2022. When specific identification is not practicable, a proportional cost method is used, primarily based on revenue and headcount. These cost allocations reasonably reflect these services and the benefits derived for the periods presented. These allocations may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been

Software Services
The Company is party to a client service and license agreement (the “HCHB Agreement”) with Homecare Homebase, LLC (“HCHB”) for a home health and hospice care management software product that includes multiple modules for collecting, storing, retrieving and disseminating patient health and health-related information by and on behalf of home health and hospice agencies, point of care staff, physicians, patients and patient family members via hand-held mobile computing devices and desktop computers linked with a website hosted by HCHB. The Company’s former chief executive officer along with others created this software product and eventually sold it to HCHB. This individual serves as HCHB’s executive chairman. As of June 19, 2021, this individual no longer serves as our chief executive officer or in any other role in the Company.
Pursuant to the HCHB Agreement, we pay fees to HCHB based on, among other things, the software modules in use, the training programs, and the number of licensed users. Total HCHB expenses of $1.5 million and $4.5 million are included in General and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
Data Analytics Investment
During 2019, we made a $2.0 million investment in Medalogix, LLC, a healthcare predictive data and analytics company (“Medalogix”); this investment is accounted for under the measurement alternative for investments. In April 2021, Medalogix entered in an agreement whereby TVG Logic Holdings, LLC (“TVG”) acquired a majority of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Medalogix for cash. The transaction closed in May 2021. As a result of the transaction, the Company received $2.0 million of cash and a minority equity investment in TVG and recorded a $1.6 million gain as part of Other income during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we incurred costs of approximately $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we incurred costs of approximately $3.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in connection with the usage of Medalogix’s analytics platforms. These costs are included in Cost of service (excluding depreciation and amortization) and General and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included under Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements (Unaudited), of this report. Among other things, those historical financial statements include more detailed information regarding the basis of presentation for the financial data included in the following discussion. This discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and industry that involve risks and uncertainties, as described under the section titled “—Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”
Overview
We are a leading national home health and hospice provider working to expand what’s possible for patient care in the home. Our team of clinicians supports patients and their families where they are most comfortable, with a nationwide footprint spanning 250 home health locations and 100 hospice locations across 34 states. Our operations are principally managed on a services basis and include two operating segments for financial reporting purposes: (1) home health and (2) hospice. For additional information about our business and reportable segments, see the sections titled “Business” and “Risk Factors” in the Form 10 and Note 9, Segment Reporting, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, and “—Segment Results of Operations” section of this item.

See “—Segment Results of Operations” section of this item for additional information.
Separation from Encompass
Prior to July 1, 2022, the Company operated as a reporting segment of Encompass Health Corporation (“Encompass”). On July 1, 2022, Encompass completed the previously announced separation of the Company through the distribution of all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Enhabit to the stockholders of record of Encompass (the “Distribution”) as of the close of business on June 24, 2022 (the “Record Date”). The Distribution was effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on July 1, 2022. The Distribution was structured as a pro rata distribution of one share of Enhabit common stock for every two shares of Encompass common stock held of record as of the Record Date. No fractional shares were distributed. A cash payment was made in lieu of any fractional shares. As a result of the
19
Distribution, Enhabit is now an independent public company, and its common stock is listed under the symbol “EHAB” on the New York Stock Exchange (the “Separation”).
In connection with the Separation, we entered into several agreements with Encompass that govern the relationship of the parties following the Distribution, including a Separation and Distribution Agreement, a Transition Services Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement, and an Employee Matters Agreement. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional information.
Acquisition and Expansion Activities
On January 1, 2022, we acquired a 50% equity interest from Frontier Home Health and Hospice, LLC in a joint venture with Saint Alphonsus Health System which operates home health and hospice locations in Boise, Idaho. The total purchase price of this acquisition was $15.9 million and was funded on December 31, 2021.
We acquired four Caring Hearts Hospice locations in Texas on October 1, 2022, and we acquired one Unity Hospice location in Arizona on November 1, 2022. The aggregate total purchase price of these acquisitions was approximately $18 million.
We have also continued our expansion efforts in 2022 by opening de novo hospice locations in Williamsburg, Virginia (January 2022), Marble Falls, Texas (March 2022), and Temple, Texas (May 2022).
For additional information about our acquisition-related activities, see Note 2, Business Combinations, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and Note 2, Business Combinations, to the consolidated financial statements in our Form 10.
Factors Affecting Our Performance
There are a number of factors that have impacted, and we believe will continue to impact, our results of operations and growth. These factors include:
Pricing. Generally, the pricing we receive for our services is based on reimbursement rates from payors. Because we derive a substantial portion of our Net service revenue from the Medicare program, our results of operations are heavily impacted by changes in Medicare reimbursement rates, if any. We are also impacted by changes in reimbursement rates by other payors, in particular Medicare Advantage plans. See “Results of Operations” section of this item for a table identifying the sources and relative payor mix of our revenues.
On October 31, 2022, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) released its notice of final rulemaking for calendar year 2023 for home health agencies under the home health prospective payment system (the “2023 HH Rule”). The 2023 HH Rule will, among other changes, implement a net 4.0% market basket increase (market basket update of 4.1% reduced by 0.1% for a productivity adjustment) and a 5% cap on wage index decreases, update the case-mix weights and fixed-dollar loss ratio for outlier payments, and update the low utilization payment adjustment thresholds. The 2023 HH Rule will also implement a permanent negative behavioral adjustment of 7.85% to the calendar year 2023 base payment rate, which is being phased in at 3.925% for 2023. Based on our preliminary analysis, which utilizes our year-to-date patient mix as of November 4, 2022, we believe the net aggregate impact of the 2023 HH Rule will result in a net increase to our Medicare payment rates of 0.8% effective for claim dates on or after January 1, 2023.
A group of lawmakers have introduced a bill, The Preserving Access to Home Health Act, that if enacted would immediately prevent CMS from implementing the proposed permanent and temporary adjustments to the home health base payment rate prior to 2026. This would allow more time for the industry to work with CMS to refine its proposed approach to determining budget neutrality in home health.
On July 27, 2022, CMS released its notice of final rulemaking for calendar year 2023 for hospice agencies under the hospice prospective payment system (the “2023 Hospice Rule”). In addition to other changes, the 2023 Hospice Rule implements a net 3.8% market basket increase (market basket update of 4.1% reduced by 0.3% for a productivity adjustment). The 2023 Hospice Rule also implements a permanent, budget neutral approach to smooth year-to-year changes in the hospice wage index. Based on our preliminary analysis, which utilizes, among other things, our patient mix annualized over a six-month period ended June 30, 2022, our specific geographic coverage area, and other factors, we believe the 2023 Hospice Rule will result in a net increase to our Medicare payment rates of approximately 3.9% effective for services provided beginning October 1, 2022.
20
In response to the public health emergency associated with the pandemic, Congress and CMS adopted several statutory and regulatory measures intended to provide relief to healthcare providers in order to ensure patients would continue to have adequate access to care. On March 27, 2020, former President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”), which suspended sequestration, an automatic 2% reduction of Medicare program payments for all healthcare providers, for the period of May 1 through December 31, 2020. The sequestration suspension was extended a number of times. Sequestration resumed as of April 1, 2022, but was only a 1% payment reduction through June 30, 2022. On July 1, 2022, the full 2% Medicare payment reduction resumed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the sequestration suspension provided additional revenues of approximately $7 million.
Volume. In addition to pricing, the volume of services we provide has a significant impact on our Net service revenue. Various factors, including competition, the ongoing impact of the pandemic, our ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in a highly competitive labor market and increasing regulatory and administrative burdens, may impact our ability to maintain and grow our home health and hospice volumes. In any particular market, we may encounter competition from local or national entities with longer operating histories or other competitive advantages. Aggressive payment review practices by Medicare contractors, aggressive enforcement of regulatory policies by government agencies, and restrictive or burdensome rules, regulations, or statutes governing admissions practices may lead us to not accept patients who would be appropriate for and would benefit from the services we provide. In addition, from time to time, we must obtain regulatory approval to expand our services and locations in states with certificate of need laws. This approval may be withheld or take longer than expected. In the case of new-store volume growth, the addition of home health agencies and hospice agencies to our portfolio also may be difficult and take longer than expected.
We expect the United States’ aging population will continue to increase long-term demand for the services we provide, which we believe will help us grow our home health and hospice volumes. While we treat patients of all ages, most of our patients are 65 and older, and, due to the increasingly aging United States population, the number of Medicare eligibles is expected to continue to grow approximately 3% per year. More specifically, the average age of our home health patients is approximately 77, and the population group ranging in ages from 75 to 79 is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5% through 2026. We believe the demand for the services we provide will continue to increase as the U.S. population ages. We believe these factors align with our strengths in, and focus on, home-based services. In addition, we believe the growing percentage of seniors experiencing chronic conditions will result in higher utilization of home health services in the future as patients require more care to support these conditions.
Efficiency. Cost and operating efficiencies impact the profitability of the patient care services we provide. We use a number of strategies to drive cost and operating efficiencies within our business. We target markets for expansion and growth that allow us to leverage our existing operations to create operating efficiencies through scale and density. We also leverage technology to create operating and supply chain efficiencies throughout our organization. See “Business—Our Competitive Strengths” in the Form 10 for further discussion of the ways we seek to reduce costs while improving patient outcomes.
Recruiting and Retaining High-Quality Personnel.. See “Risk Factors” in the Form 10 for a discussion of competition for staffing, shortages of qualified personnel, and other factors that may increase our labor costs. Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel, including management, for our home health and hospice agencies remain a high priority for us. We attempt to maintain a comprehensive compensation and benefits package that allows us to remain competitive in this challenging staffing environment while remaining consistent with our goal of being a high-quality, cost-effective provider of home health and hospice services. Additionally, our operations have been affected and may in the future be affected by staffing shortages, due to shortages of qualified personnel and where employees must self-quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19 or where employees are unavailable due to a lack of childcare or care for elderly family.
Our Separation from Encompass. As a result of our separation from Encompass, certain items may impact the comparability of the historical results presented below with our future performance. Specifically, we will incur additional expenses as a result of being an independent, publicly-traded company including public reporting obligations, proxy statements, stockholder meetings, stock exchange fees, transfer agent fees, and SEC and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority filing fees and offering expenses.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. We are required to test our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as least annually, absent any triggering events that would accelerate an impairment assessment. Absent any triggering events, we perform this testing as of October 1st of each year.
21
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we identified potential impairment triggering events, including the impact of ongoing reimbursement and labor pressures, the Federal Reserve further increasing the risk-free interest rate and a decline in our stock price, and determined a quantitative analysis of our two reporting units should be performed. We estimated the fair value of our reporting units using the income approach and market approach. Based on the results of the quantitative analysis, no adjustments to the carrying value of goodwill for each of the reporting units were necessary during the three months ended September 30, 2022.
As of September 30, 2022, the fair value of our home health reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by less than 5%. The home health reporting unit has an allocated goodwill balance of $0.9 billion.The assumptions used in the quantitative analysis incorporate a number of significant estimates and judgments, including the discount rate, revenue and gross margin forecast, timing of acquisitions and de novo openings and long-term growth rate. While management believes the assumptions used are reasonable and commensurate with the views of a market participant, there is also uncertainty in general economic and market conditions. The result of the analysis is sensitive to changes in key assumptions, such as assumed future reimbursement rates, rising interest rates and labor costs and delays in our ability to complete acquisitions and de novo openings, which could negatively impact our forecasted cash flows and result in an impairment charge in future periods.

Total | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % |
The decline in Medicare reimbursements as a percentage of our Net service revenue and corresponding increase in Medicare Advantage reimbursements was primarily driven by continued national enrollment increases in Medicare Advantage Plans by Medicare beneficiaries in our home health segment. We expect these trends in enrollment in Medicare Advantage Plans to continue and result in further decreases in Medicare revenue as a percentage of our Net service revenue in future periods. For additional discussion of our payor mix by segment, see “—Segment Results of Operations”.

Net Service Revenue
Our Net service revenue decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 due to the resumption of sequestration, the continued shift to more non-episodic patients in home health and lower volumes in hospice. See additional discussion in the section titled “—Segment Results of Operations”.
Cost of Service (Excluding Depreciation and Amortization)
Cost of service increased in terms of dollars and as a percentage of Net service revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to higher costs related to labor, and fleet and mileage reimbursement. See additional discussion in “—Segment Results of Operations”.
23
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to incremental costs associated with being a stand-alone company. As a percentage of revenue, our General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to the decrease in revenue discussed above. Our General and administrative expenses are expected to increase in the future as an independent, publicly-traded company.
Other Income
Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a $1.6 million gain related to our investment in a healthcare predictive data and analytics company. See Note 10, Related Party Transactions, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount and Fees
Interest expense and amortization of debt discount and fees increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to interest expense related to borrowings under our new Credit Facilities. See additional discussion in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources”.
Income Tax Expense
Our Income tax expense decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 primarily due to lower Income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests. We currently estimate our cash payments for income taxes to be approximately $11 million to $13 million, net of refunds, for 2022. These payments are expected to primarily result from federal and state income tax expenses based on estimates of taxable income for 2022. See also Note 7, Income Taxes, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Relationships and Transactions with Related Parties
We are party to a client service and license agreement with a third party for which our former chief executive officer serves as executive chairman. For a description of these transactions as well as a description of our relationships and transactions with Encompass following the Separation, see Note 10, Related Party Transactions, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Segment Results of Operations
Our internal financial reporting and management structure is focused on the major types of services we provide. We manage our business using two operating segments which are also our reportable segments: (1) home health and (2) hospice. For additional information regarding our business segments, including a detailed description of the services we provide, financial data for each segment, and a reconciliation of total Segment Adjusted EBITDA to Income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, see Note 9, Segment Reporting, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and Note 14, Segment Reporting, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.

Net Service Revenue
The decrease in home health Net service revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 was primarily due to the resumption of sequestration and the continued shift to more non-episodic patients. Total admissions increased during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 primarily due to growth in non-episodic admissions. Revenue per episode increased during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to an increase in Medicare reimbursement rates, the timing of completed episodes and patient mix under the Patient Driven Groupings Model offset by the resumption of sequestration. Revenue per episode increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to an increase in Medicare reimbursement rates and patient mix under the Patient Driven Groupings Model offset by the resumption of sequestration.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA
The decrease in home health Segment Adjusted EBITDA during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021primarily resulted from lower revenue as discussed above and higher Cost of service. Cost of service increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to higher costs related to labor,fleet and mileage reimbursement and workers’ compensation.

Net Service Revenue
The decrease in hospice Net service revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 was primarily due to lower volumes and the resumption of sequestration. Admissions decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 primarily due to capacity constraints and staffing challenges leading to a decline in referrals early in the year.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA
The decrease in hospice Segment Adjusted EBITDA during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 was primarily due to lower revenue and higher cost of service related to labor (including increased use of contract labor), fleet, and mileage reimbursement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our ability to fund our operations and capital needs depends upon our ability to generate operating cash flow and to access the capital markets. Our principal uses of cash are to fund our operations, working capital needs, repayment of borrowings, strategic business development transactions, and capital expenditures.
In June 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that consists of a $400 million term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) and a $350 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Term Loan A Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities mature five years from the closing date thereof. Interest on the loans under the Credit Facilities is calculated by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable interest rate margin. Enhabit may voluntarily prepay outstanding loans under the Credit Facilities at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to SOFR loans. The Term Loan A Facility contains customary mandatory prepayments, including with respect to proceeds from asset sales and from certain incurrences of indebtedness.
The Term Loan A Facility amortizes by an amount per annum equal to 5.0% of the outstanding principal amount thereon as of the closing date, payable in equal quarterly installments, with the balance being payable on the date that is five years after the closing of the Term Loan A Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility provides the ability to borrow and obtain letters of credit, which will be subject to a $75 million sublimit in amounts available to be drawn at any time prior to the date that is five years after the closing of the Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations under the Credit Facilities will be guaranteed by our existing and future wholly-owned domestic material subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities will be secured by first priority liens on substantially all the assets of Enhabit and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for secured financings of this type, including limitations with respect to liens, fundamental changes, indebtedness, restricted payments, investments and affiliate transactions, in each case, subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. In addition, the Credit Facilities will obligate us to maintain certain total maximum total net leverage ratios and a minimum interest coverage ratio.
On June 30, 2022, we drew the full $400 million of the Term Loan A Facility and $170 million on the Revolving Credit Facility. The net proceeds of $566.6 million were distributed to Encompass prior to the completion of the Distribution. As of September 30, 2022, amounts drawn under the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility
27
had an interest rate of 4.9%. For additional information on the Separation, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
For additional information regarding our debt and interest rate swap, see Note 5, Long-term Debt, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Current Liquidity
Our liquidity needs include working capital requirements, funding capital expenditures, including acquisitions, and servicing our debt.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $44.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, in Cash and cash equivalents. These amounts exclude $3.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively, in Restricted cash. Our Restricted cash pertains primarily to a joint venture in which we participate where our external partner requested, and we agreed, that the joint venture’s cash not be commingled with other corporate cash accounts. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
In addition to Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $180 million available to us under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Agreement governs our senior secured borrowing capacity and contains a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio as financial covenants. Our leverage ratio is defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of consolidated total debt (less up to $200 million of cash on hand) to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. In calculating the leverage ratio under the Credit Agreement, we are permitted to use pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, the calculation of which includes historical income statement items and pro forma adjustments resulting from (1) the dispositions and repayments or incurrence of debt and (2) the investments, acquisitions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and operational changes from acquisitions to the extent such items or effects are not yet reflected in our trailing four-quarter financial statements. Our interest coverage ratio is defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to cash interest paid or required to be paid for the trailing four quarters.
Sources and Uses of Cash

Net cash used in financing activities | (32.0) | (9.1) | |||||||||
Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | 39.9 | $ | (8.6) |
Operating activities. The decrease in Net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 primarily resulted from a decrease in Net income and payroll taxes deferred under the CARES Act in 2021 partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable resulting from the phase-out of the Request for Anticipated Payments in 2021.
Investing activities. The decrease in Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 primarily resulted from the Frontier acquisition in June 2021 as described in Note 2, Business Combinations, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
Financing activities. The increase in Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 primarily resulted from the debt distribution to Encompass offset by debt borrowings and lower contributions from Encompass. For additional information, see Note 5, Long-term Debt, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

(a)Included in long-term debt are amounts owed on other notes payable. These borrowings are further explained in Note 5, Long-term Debt, accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements.
(b)Interest expense on our variable rate debt is estimated using the rate in effect as of September 30, 2022. Interest related to finance lease obligations is excluded from this line. Amounts exclude amortization of debt discounts, amortization of loan fees that would be included in interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
(c)We lease automobiles for our clinicians under finance leases. Amounts include interest portion of future minimum finance lease payments.
(d)Our home health and hospice segments lease: (1) relatively small office spaces in the localities they serve, (2) space for their corporate office, and (3) equipment in the normal course of business. Amounts include interest portion of future minimum operating lease payments. For more information, see Note 6, Leases, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10.
(e)Purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancelable without penalty. Our purchase obligations primarily relate to software licensing and support. Purchase obligations are not recognized in our consolidated balance sheet.
Our capital expenditures include costs associated with capital projects, technology initiatives, and equipment upgrades and purchases. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we made capital expenditures of $5.8 million for property and equipment and capitalized software. During 2022, we expect to spend approximately $5 million to $8 million for capital expenditures and $50 million to $100 million for acquisitions. Actual amounts spent will be dependent upon the timing of projects and acquisition opportunities.
Adjusted EBITDA
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, as defined in the Credit Agreement is a measure of our ability to service our debt and our ability to make capital expenditures. We reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to Net income and to Net cash provided by operating activities.
We use Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis as a liquidity measure. We believe this financial measure on a consolidated basis is important in analyzing our liquidity because it is the key component of certain material covenants contained within the Credit Agreement, which is discussed in more detail in Note 5, Long-term Debt, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. These covenants are material terms of the Credit Agreement. Noncompliance with these financial covenants under the Credit Agreement—its interest coverage ratio and its leverage ratio—could result in our lenders requiring us to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If we anticipated a potential covenant violation, we would seek relief from our lenders, which would have some cost to us, and such relief might be on terms less favorable to those in our existing Credit Agreement. In addition, if we cannot satisfy these financial covenants, we would be prohibited under the Credit Agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, paying common
29
stock dividends, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA is critical to our assessment of our liquidity.
In general terms, the Credit Agreement definition of Adjusted EBITDA, therein referred to as “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA,” allows us to add back to consolidated net income interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization and then add back to consolidated net income (1) share-based compensation expense and (2) any “run rate” cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies related to any acquisitions, dispositions and other specified transactions, restructurings, cost savings initiatives and other initiatives that are reasonably quantifiable not in excess of 25% of Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA. We also subtract from consolidated net income all unusual or nonrecurring items to the extent they increase consolidated net income.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the Form 10.

For information regarding recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our primary exposure to market risk is to changes in interest rates on our variable rate long-term debt. We use sensitivity analysis models to evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our variable rate debt. As of September 30, 2022, our primary variable rate debt outstanding related to $170.0 million in advances under our Revolving Credit Facility and $395.0 million under our Term Loan A Facility. Assuming outstanding balances were to remain the same, a 1% increase in interest rates would result in an incremental negative cash flow of $5.7 million over the next 12 months, while a 1% decrease in interest rates would result in an incremental positive cash flow of $5.7 million over the next 12 months.
On October 20, 2022, we entered into an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap has a $200.0 million notional value and a maturity date of October 20, 2025. Beginning in October 2022, we receive the one-month SOFR and pay a fixed rate of interest of 4.3%.
See Note 5, Long-term Debt, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our long-term debt.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out by our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our Internal Control over Financial Reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We provide services in the highly regulated healthcare industry. In the ordinary course of our business, we are a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims as well as regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject us to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. Some of these matters have been material to us in the past, and others in the future may, either individually or in the aggregate, be material and adverse to our business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity. We do not believe any of our pending legal proceedings are material to us, but there can be no assurance our assessment will not change based on future developments.
Additionally, the False Claims Act (the “FCA”) allows private citizens, called ‘‘relators,’’ to institute civil proceedings on behalf of the United States alleging violations of the FCA. These lawsuits, also known as ‘‘qui tam’’ actions, are common in the healthcare industry and can involve significant monetary damages, fines, attorneys’ fees and the award of bounties to the relators who successfully prosecute or bring these suits to the government. It is possible that qui tam lawsuits have been filed against us, which suits remain under seal, or that we are unaware of such filings or precluded by existing law or court order from discussing or disclosing the filing of such suits. Therefore, from time to time, we may be party to one or more undisclosed qui tam cases brought pursuant to the FCA.
On January 13, 2022, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) issued a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) to Encompass Health Corporation in connection with an investigation into unfair methods of competition by companies providing home health aide or personal care aide services. Following responses to the CID by Encompass Health Corporation and Enhabit, Inc. as successor to Encompass Health Corporation’s home health and hospice business, on October 6, 2022, the FTC informed Encompass Health Corporation that no further response to the CID would be required.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except for the updates, set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the Form 10.
Reductions or changes in reimbursement from government or third-party payors could adversely affect our
Net service revenue and other operating results.
On October 31, 2022, CMS released its final rulemaking for calendar year 2023 for home health agencies under the home health prospective payment system (the “2023 HH Rule”). The long-term implications of the 2023 HH Rule and CMS’s approach to rate adjustments remain a challenge to home health businesses like the Company. If CMS continues to implement its current methodology for determining prospective reimbursement rates in 2023 and beyond, or if CMS pursues more aggressive adjustments in reimbursement rates, it could have a material adverse effect on our Net service revenue and other operating results.
