SELECT MEDICAL HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SELECT MEDICAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.             
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, Select Medical Corporation (“Select”). Holdings conducts substantially all of its business through Select and its subsidiaries. Holdings and Select and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2019, and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2019, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by GAAP, which are normally included in the notes to consolidated financial statements, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for such periods. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019.
2.
Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including disclosure of contingencies, at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Credit Risk Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash balances and trade receivables. The Company’s excess cash is held with large financial institutions. The Company grants unsecured credit to its patients, most of whom reside in the service area of the Company’s facilities and are insured under third-party payor agreements. The Company’s general policy is to verify insurance coverage prior to the date of admission for patients admitted to the Company’s critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals. Within the Company’s outpatient rehabilitation clinics, the Company verifies insurance coverage prior to the patient’s visit.  Within the Company’s Concentra centers, the Company verifies insurance coverage or receives authorization from the patient’s employer prior to the patient’s visit.
Because of the geographic diversity of the Company’s facilities and non-governmental third-party payors, Medicare represents the Company’s only significant concentration of credit risk. Approximately 16% and 18% of the Company’s accounts receivable are from Medicare at December 31, 2018, and March 31, 2019, respectively.
Leases
The Company evaluates whether a contract is or contains a lease at the inception of the contract. Upon lease commencement, the date on which a lessor makes the underlying asset available to the Company for use, the Company classifies the lease as either an operating or finance lease. Most of the Company’s facility and equipment leases are classified as operating leases.
Balance Sheet
For both operating and finance leases, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability at lease commencement. A right-of-use asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while the lease liability represents an obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease which are measured on a discounted basis. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for its equipment leases; accordingly, equipment leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining, fixed lease payments at lease commencement. The Company primarily uses its incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at lease commencement, in determining the present value of its remaining lease payments. The Company’s leases may also specify extension or termination clauses. These options are factored into the measurement of the lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the initial lease liability, plus any prepaid lease payments (less any incentives received, such as reimbursement for leasehold improvements) and initial direct costs, at the lease commencement date.
The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, as a single lease component for its facility leases. As a result, the fixed payments that would otherwise be allocated to the non-lease components will be accounted for as lease payments and are included in the measurement of the Company’s right-of-use asset and lease liability.
Statement of Operations
For the Company’s operating leases, rent expense, a component of cost of services and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The straight-line rent expense is reflective of the interest expense on the lease liability using the effective interest method and the amortization of the right-of-use asset.
For the Company’s finance leases, interest expense on the lease liability is recognized using the effective interest method. Amortization expense related to the right-of-use asset is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.
The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for its equipment leases. For these leases, the Company recognizes lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments are expensed as incurred. These expenses are included as components of cost of services on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company makes payments related to changes in indexes or rates after the lease commencement date. Additionally, the Company makes payments, which are not fixed at lease commencement, for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance related to its facility leases. These variable lease payments, which are expensed as incurred, are included as a component of cost of services and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.
Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
The ownership interests held by outside parties in subsidiaries, limited liability companies, and limited partnerships controlled by the Company are classified as non-controlling interests. Some of the Company’s non-controlling ownership interests consist of outside parties that have certain redemption rights that, if exercised, require the Company to purchase the parties’ ownership interests. These interests are classified and reported as redeemable non-controlling interests and have been adjusted to their approximate redemption values after the attribution of net income or loss.
The changes in redeemable non-controlling interests, which are the same for Holdings and Select, are as follows (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The current standard delays the recognition of a credit loss on a financial asset until the loss is probable of occurring. The new standard removes the requirement that a credit loss be probable of occurring for it to be recognized and requires entities to use historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate their future expected credit losses. The Company’s accounts receivable derived from contracts with customers will be subject to ASU 2016-13.

The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance must be applied using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. Given the very high rate of collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable derived from contracts with customers, the Company believes that the impact of ASU 2016-13 is unlikely to be material.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases using a modified retrospective approach as of January 1, 2019, for leases which existed on that date. Prior comparative periods were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 840, Leases.
The Company elected the package of practical expedients, which permitted the Company not to reassess under ASC Topic 842 the Company’s prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements; the latter not being applicable to the Company.
The adoption of the standard resulted in the recognition of operating lease right-of-use assets of $1,015.0 million and operating lease liabilities of $1,057.0 million at January 1, 2019. The difference between the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities resulted from the reclassification of prepaid rent, deferred rent, unamortized lease incentives, and acquired favorable and unfavorable leasehold interests upon adoption. The Company did not recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption.

Acquisitions
U.S. HealthWorks Acquisition
On February 1, 2018, Concentra Inc. (“Concentra”) acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of U.S. HealthWorks, Inc. (“U.S. HealthWorks”), an occupational medicine and urgent care service provider, from Dignity Health Holding Corporation (“DHHC”).
Concentra acquired U.S. HealthWorks for $753.6 million. DHHC, a subsidiary of Dignity Health, was issued a 20.0% equity interest in Concentra Group Holdings Parent, LLC (“Concentra Group Holdings Parent”) which was valued at $238.0 million. The remainder of the purchase price was paid in cash. Select retained a majority voting interest in Concentra Group Holdings Parent following the closing of the transaction.
For the U.S. HealthWorks acquisition, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company finalized the purchase accounting related to this acquisition.
The following table reconciles the fair values of identifiable net assets and goodwill to the consideration given for the acquired business (in thousands):

$

For the period February 1, 2018 through March 31, 2018, U.S. HealthWorks contributed net operating revenues of $89.9 million which is reflected in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Due to the integrated nature of the Company’s operations, the Company believes that it is not practicable to separately identify earnings of U.S. HealthWorks on a stand-alone basis.
Pro Forma Results
The following pro forma unaudited results of operations have been prepared assuming the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks occurred on January 1, 2017. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results of future operations nor of the results that would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated on the aforementioned date. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s results of operations include U.S. HealthWorks for the entire period and no pro forma adjustments were made.

The Company’s pro forma results were adjusted to recognize U.S. HealthWorks acquisition costs as of January 1, 2017. Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, pro forma results were adjusted to exclude $2.9 million of U.S. HealthWorks acquisition costs.
4.
Sale of Businesses
The Company recognized a non-operating gain of $6.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, which resulted from the sale of 22 wholly-owned outpatient rehabilitation clinics to a non-consolidating subsidiary.

Table of Contents

5.
Variable Interest Entities
Concentra does not own many of its medical practices, as certain states prohibit the “corporate practice of medicine,” which restricts business corporations from practicing medicine through the direct employment of physicians or from exercising control over medical decisions by physicians. In states which prohibit the corporate practice of medicine, Concentra typically enters into long-term management agreements with professional corporations or associations that are owned by licensed physicians, which, in turn, employ or contract with physicians who provide professional medical services in its occupational health centers.
The management agreements have terms that provide for Concentra to conduct, supervise, and manage the day-to-day non-medical operations of the occupational health centers and provide all management and administrative services. Concentra receives a management fee for these services, which is based, in part, on the performance of the professional corporation or association. Additionally, the outstanding voting equity interests of the professional corporations or associations are typically owned by licensed physicians appointed at Concentra’s discretion. Concentra has the ability to direct the transfer of ownership of the professional corporation or association to a new licensed physician at any time.
Based on the provisions of these agreements, Concentra has the ability to direct the activities which most significantly impact the performance of these professional corporations and associations and has an obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the professional corporations and associations. Accordingly, the professional corporations and associations are variable interest entities for which Concentra is the primary beneficiary.
The total assets of Concentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts receivable, were $166.2 million and $177.6 million at December 31, 2018, and March 31, 2019, respectively. The total liabilities of Concentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and obligations payable for services received under the aforementioned management agreements, were $164.4 million and $175.8 million at December 31, 2018, and March 31, 2019, respectively.
6.
Leases
The Company has operating and finance leases for its facilities and certain equipment. The Company leases its corporate office space from related parties.
The Company’s critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals generally have lease terms of 10 years with two, five year renewal options. These renewal options vary for hospitals which operate as a hospital within a hospital, or “HIH.” The Company’s outpatient rehabilitation clinics generally have lease terms of five years with two, three to five year renewal options. The Company’s Concentra centers generally have lease terms of 10 years with two, five year renewal options.

Excess Cash Flow Payment
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Select made a principal prepayment of approximately $98.8 million associated with its term loans in accordance with the provision in the Select credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Select credit facilities. The principal prepayment was applied against future payments sequentially; as a result, no further loan amortization payments will be required on the Select term loan until maturity on March 6, 2025.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Concentra made a principal prepayment of approximately $33.9 million associated with its term loans in accordance with the provision in the Concentra credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Concentra credit facilities. The principal prepayment was applied against future payments sequentially; as a result, no further loan amortization payments will be required on the terms loans outstanding under the Concentra first lien credit agreement until maturity on June 1, 2022.
Fair Value
The Company considers the inputs in the valuation process to be Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy for Select’s 6.375% senior notes and for its credit facilities. Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy is defined as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, which includes quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
The fair values of the Select credit facilities and the Concentra credit facilities were based on quoted market prices for this debt in the syndicated loan market. The fair value of Select’s 6.375% senior notes was based on quoted market prices. The carrying amount of other debt, principally short-term notes payable, approximates fair value.

Earnings per Share
The Company’s capital structure includes common stock and unvested restricted stock awards. To compute earnings per share (“EPS”), the Company applies the two-class method because the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards are participating securities which are entitled to participate equally with the Company’s common stock in undistributed earnings. Application of the Company’s two-class method is as follows:
(i)
Net income attributable to the Company is reduced by the amount of dividends declared and by the contractual amount of dividends that must be paid for the current period for each class of stock. There were no dividends declared or contractual dividends paid for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2019.
(ii)
The remaining undistributed net income of the Company is then equally allocated to its common stock and unvested restricted stock awards, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. The total net income allocated to each security is determined by adding both distributed and undistributed net income for the period.
(i)
The net income allocated to each security is then divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period to determine the EPS for each security considered in the two-class method.
The following table sets forth the net income attributable to the Company, its common shares outstanding, and its participating securities outstanding.

Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance coverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programs that are designed to respond to the risks of the specific joint venture. The annual aggregate limit under these programs ranges from $5.0 million to $20.0 million. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.

Evansville Litigation.    On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff‑relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital-Evansville, LLC (“SSH‑Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff‑relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff‑relators are the former CEO and two former case managers at SSH‑Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH‑Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH‑Evansville. The plaintiff‑relators allege that SSH‑Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up‑coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long‑term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.
In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff‑relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non‑retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However, the District Court ruled that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present and allowing discovery that would facilitate the use of statistical sampling to prove liability, which the defendants opposed. In April 2018, a U.S. magistrate judge ruled that plaintiff‑relators’ discovery will be limited to only SSH-Evansville for the period from March 23, 2010 through September 30, 2016, and that the plaintiff‑relators will be required to prove the fraud that they allege on a claim-by-claim basis, rather than using statistical sampling. The plaintiff-relators appealed this decision to the district judge who, in March 2019, affirmed the decision of the magistrate judge regarding the geographic and temporal scope of the case, but ruled that the question of statistical sampling is not ripe for review.
The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Wilmington Litigation.    On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH‑Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal in May 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH‑Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in January 2017. The corporate defendants were served in March 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff‑relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH‑Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH‑Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, in May 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim. In March 2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.
In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH‑Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Contract Therapy Subpoena. On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producing documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read this discussion together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “target,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement our strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets, working capital needs, and sources of liquidity.
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding our services, the expansion of our services, competitive conditions, and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
changes in government reimbursement for our services and/or new payment policies may result in a reduction in net operating revenues, an increase in costs, and a reduction in profitability;
the failure of our Medicare-certified long term care hospitals or inpatient rehabilitation facilities to maintain their Medicare certifications may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
the failure of our Medicare-certified long term care hospitals and inpatient rehabilitation facilities operated as “hospitals within hospitals” to qualify as hospitals separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
a government investigation or assertion that we have violated applicable regulations may result in sanctions or reputational harm and increased costs;
acquisitions or joint ventures may prove difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources, or expose us to unforeseen liabilities;
our plans and expectations related to our acquisitions, including the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra, and our ability to realize anticipated synergies;
private third-party payors for our services may adopt payment policies that could limit our future net operating revenues and profitability;
the failure to maintain established relationships with the physicians in the areas we serve could reduce our net operating revenues and profitability;
shortages in qualified nurses, therapists, physicians, or other licensed providers could increase our operating costs significantly or limit our ability to staff our facilities;
competition may limit our ability to grow and result in a decrease in our net operating revenues and profitability;
the loss of key members of our management team could significantly disrupt our operations;
the effect of claims asserted against us could subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities;

Overview
 We began operations in 1997 and, based on number of facilities, are one of the largest operators of critical illness recovery hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation clinics and occupational health centers in the United States. As of March 31, 2019, we had operations in 47 states and the District of Columbia. We operated 97 critical illness recovery hospitals in 28 states, 27 rehabilitation hospitals in 11 states, and 1,684 outpatient rehabilitation clinics in 37 states and the District of Columbia. Concentra, a joint venture subsidiary, operated 525 occupational health centers in 41 states as of March 31, 2019. Concentra also provides contract services at employer worksites and Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinics (“CBOCs”).
Our reportable segments include the critical illness recovery hospital segment, the rehabilitation hospital segment, the outpatient rehabilitation segment, and the Concentra segment. We had net operating revenues of $1,324.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Of this total, we earned approximately 35% of our net operating revenues from our critical illness recovery hospital segment, approximately 14% from our rehabilitation hospital segment, approximately 21% from our outpatient rehabilitation segment, and approximately 30% from our Concentra segment. Our critical illness recovery hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve the needs of patients recovering from critical illnesses, often with complex medical needs, and our rehabilitation hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve patients that require intensive physical rehabilitation care. Patients are typically admitted to our critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals from general acute care hospitals. Our outpatient rehabilitation segment consists of clinics that provide physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation services. Our Concentra segment consists of occupational health centers that provide workers’ compensation injury care, physical therapy, and consumer health services as well as onsite clinics located at employer worksites that deliver occupational medicine services. Additionally, our Concentra segment delivers veteran’s healthcare through its Department of Veterans Affairs CBOCs.

Non-GAAP Measure
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, is important to investors because Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as an analytical indicator of performance by investors within the healthcare industry. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate financial performance and determine resource allocation for each of our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income, income from operations, cash flows generated by operations, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance or liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying definitions, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain (loss) on early retirement of debt, stock compensation expense, acquisition costs associated with U.S. HealthWorks, non-operating gain (loss), and equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries. We will refer to Adjusted EBITDA throughout the remainder of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Regulatory Changes
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019, contains a detailed discussion of the regulations that affect our business in Part I — Business — Government Regulations. The following is a discussion of some of the more significant healthcare regulatory changes that have affected our financial performance in the periods covered by this report or are likely to affect our financial performance and financial condition in the future. The information below should be read in conjunction with the more detailed discussion of regulations contained in our Form 10-K.
Medicare Reimbursement
The Medicare program reimburses healthcare providers for services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries, which are generally persons age 65 and older, those who are chronically disabled, and those suffering from end stage renal disease. The program is governed by the Social Security Act of 1965 and is administered primarily by the Department of Health and Human Services and CMS. Net operating revenues generated directly from the Medicare program represented approximately 27% of our net operating revenues for both the three months ended March 31, 2019, and for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Medicare Reimbursement of LTCH Services
There have been significant regulatory changes affecting our critical illness recovery hospitals, which are certified by Medicare as long term care hospitals (“LTCHs”), that have affected our net operating revenues and, in some cases, caused us to change our operating models and strategies. We have been subject to regulatory changes that occur through the rulemaking procedures of CMS. All Medicare payments to our critical illness recovery hospitals are made in accordance with the long term care hospital prospective payment system (“LTCH-PPS”).
The following is a summary of significant changes to LTCH-PPS which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations.
Fiscal Year 2018. On August 14, 2017, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2018 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2018). Certain errors in the final rule published on August 14, 2017 were corrected in a final rule published October 4, 2017. The standard federal rate was set at $41,415, a decrease from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2017 of $42,476. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2018 included a market basket increase of 2.7%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.6%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”). The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2018 was further impacted by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which limits the update for fiscal year 2018 to 1.0%. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $27,381, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2017 fiscal year of $21,943. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $26,537, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2017 fiscal year of $23,573.
Fiscal Year 2019. On August 17, 2018, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2019 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019). Certain errors in the final rule were corrected in a final rule published October 3, 2018. The standard federal rate was set at $41,559, an increase from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2018 of $41,415. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2019 included a market basket increase of 2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.8%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. The standard federal rate also included an area wage budget neutrality factor of 0.999215 and a temporary, one-time budget neutrality adjustment of 0.990878 in connection with the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule (discussed herein). The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $27,121, a decrease from the fixed-loss amount in the 2018 fiscal year of $27,381. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $25,743, a decrease from the fixed-loss amount in the 2018 fiscal year of $26,537.
Fiscal Year 2020. On April 23, 2019, CMS released an advanced copy of the proposed policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2020 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020). The standard federal rate would be set at $42,951, an increase from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2019 of $41,559. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2020, if adopted, includes a market basket increase of 3.2%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.5%. The standard federal rate also includes an area wage budget neutrality factor of 1.0064747 and a temporary, one-time budget neutrality adjustment of 0.999856 in connection with the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule (discussed herein). The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS, if adopted, would be set at $29,997, which is an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2019 fiscal year of $27,121. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate, if adopted, would be set at $26,994, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2019 fiscal year of $25,743. For LTCH discharges occurring in cost reporting periods beginning in FY 2020, site neutral payment rate cases will begin to be paid fully on the site neutral payment rate, rather than the transitional blended rate.

Table of Contents

25 Percent Rule
The “25 Percent Rule” was a downward payment adjustment that applied if the percentage of Medicare patients discharged from LTCHs who were admitted from a referring hospital (regardless of whether the LTCH or LTCH satellite is co-located with the referring hospital) exceeded the applicable percentage admissions threshold during a particular cost reporting period.
For fiscal year 2018, CMS adopted a regulatory moratorium on the implementation of the 25 Percent Rule.
For fiscal year 2019 and thereafter, CMS eliminated the 25 Percent Rule entirely. The elimination of the 25 Percent Rule is being implemented in a budget neutral manner by adjusting the standard federal payment rates down such that the projection of aggregate LTCH payments would equal the projection of aggregate LTCH payments that would have been paid if the moratorium ended and the 25 Percent Rule went into effect on October 1, 2018. As a result, the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule includes a temporary, one-time adjustment to the fiscal year 2019 LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate, a temporary, one-time adjustment to the fiscal year 2020 LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate, and a permanent, one-time adjustment to the LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate in fiscal years 2021 and subsequent years.
Medicare Reimbursement of IRF Services
The following is a summary of significant regulatory changes affecting our rehabilitation hospitals, which are certified by Medicare as inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”), as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations. Medicare payments to our rehabilitation hospitals are made in accordance with the inpatient rehabilitation facility prospective payment system (“IRF-PPS”).
The following is a summary of significant changes to IRF-PPS which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations.
Fiscal Year 2018. On August 3, 2017, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2018 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2018). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 2018 was set at $15,838, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 2017 of $15,708. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2018 included a market basket increase of 2.6%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.6%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. The standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2018 was further impacted by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which limited the update for fiscal year 2018 to 1.0%. CMS increased the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 2018 to $8,679 from $7,984 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2017.
Fiscal Year 2019. On August 6, 2018, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2019 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 2019 was set at $16,021, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 2018 of $15,838. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2019 included a market basket increase of 2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.8%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. CMS increased the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 2019 to $9,402 from $8,679 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2018.
Fiscal Year 2020. On April 17, 2019, CMS released an advanced copy of the proposed policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2020 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 2020 would be set at $16,573, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 2019 of $16,021. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2020, if adopted, would include a market basket increase of 3.0%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.5%. CMS proposed to increase the outlier threshold amount for fiscal year 2020 to $9,935 from $9,402 established in the final rule for fiscal year 2019.
Medicare Reimbursement of Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic Services
The Medicare program reimburses outpatient rehabilitation providers based on the Medicare physician fee schedule. For services provided in 2017 through 2019, a 0.5% update was applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to an adjustment beginning in 2019 under the Merit‑Based Incentive Payment System (“MIPS”). For services provided in 2020 through 2025, a 0.0% percent update will be applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to adjustments under MIPS and the alternative payment models (“APMs”). In 2026 and subsequent years, eligible professionals participating in APMs who meet certain criteria would receive annual updates of 0.75%, while all other professionals would receive annual updates of 0.25%.


34

Table of Contents

Beginning in 2019, payments under the fee schedule are subject to adjustment based on performance in MIPS, which measures performance based on certain quality metrics, resource use, and meaningful use of electronic health records. Under the MIPS requirements an eligible clinician’s performance is assessed according to established performance standards and used to determine an adjustment factor that is then applied to the clinician’s payment for a year. Each year from 2019 through 2024 eligible clinicians who receive a significant share of their revenues through an APM (such as accountable care organizations or bundled payment arrangements) that involves risk of financial losses and a quality measurement component will receive a 5% bonus. The bonus payment for APM participation is intended to encourage participation and testing of new APMs and to promote the alignment of incentives across payors.
Modifiers to Identify Services of Physical Therapy Assistants or Occupational Therapy Assistants
In the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule final rule for calendar year 2019, CMS established two new modifiers to identify services furnished in whole or in part by physical therapy assistants (“PTAs”) or occupational therapy assistants (“OTAs”). These modifiers were mandated by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which requires that claims for outpatient therapy services furnished in whole or part by therapy assistants on or after January 1, 2020 include the appropriate modifier. CMS intends to use these modifiers to implement a payment differential that would reimburse services provided by PTAs and OTAs at 85% of the fee schedule rate beginning on January 1, 2022.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2019, Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
In the following, we discuss our results of operations related to net operating revenues, operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, depreciation and amortization, income from operations, loss on early retirement of debt, equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries, non-operating gain, interest expense, income taxes, and net income attributable to non-controlling interests, which, in each case, are the same for Holdings and Select.
Net Operating Revenues
Our net operating revenues increased 5.7% to $1,324.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,253.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment.    Net operating revenues were $462.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $464.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our patient days were 258,129 days for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 265,840 days for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decline in patient days, which was the primary cause of the decrease in net operating revenues, was principally attributable to three hospitals that have closed since March 31, 2018, as well as the temporary closure of our hospital located in Panama City, Florida as a result of damage sustained from Hurricane Michael in October 2018. This decrease in net operating revenues from these closures was offset in part by an increase in net revenue per patient day. Net revenue per patient day increased 1.7% to $1,759 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,730 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We also experienced an increase in net operating revenues related to contracted labor services provided to an entity in which we have made an equity investment during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Rehabilitation Hospital Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 8.1% to $189.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $174.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net operating revenues resulted primarily from an increase in patient volumes during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our patient days increased 7.7% to 82,816 days for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 76,890 days for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in patient days occurred within our two new rehabilitation hospitals, which commenced operations after March 31, 2018, and within our existing hospitals. Our net revenue per patient day increased 0.6% to $1,633 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,623 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we also experienced an increase in net operating revenues related to contracted labor services provided to entities in which we have made equity investments.
Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 7.7% to $277.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $257.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net operating revenues was principally attributable to an increase in contracted labor services provided to entities in which we have made equity investments and an increase in management fee revenues. Our net revenue per visit was $103 for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Our visits were 2,054,483 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 2,067,465 visits for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in visits was principally due to the sales of outpatient rehabilitation clinics to non-consolidating subsidiaries since March 31, 2018. These clinics contributed 99,766 visits during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Concentra Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 11.3% to $396.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $356.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Visits in our centers increased 12.2% to 2,911,607 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 2,596,059 visits for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increases in net operating revenues and visits were principally due to U.S. HealthWorks, which we acquired on February 1, 2018. Net revenue per visit was $124 for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist principally of cost of services and general and administrative expenses. Our operating expenses were $1,160.8 million, or 87.7% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,097.6 million, or 87.6% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our cost of services, a major component of which is labor expense, was $1,132.1 million, or 85.5% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,065.8 million, or 85.1% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our operating expenses, relative to our net operating revenues, were impacted by an increase in expenses incurred by our start-up rehabilitation hospitals and the recognition of approximately $1.5 million of bad debt expense, which is included in cost of services, by our rehabilitation hospital segment during the three months ended March 31, 2019. General and administrative expenses were $28.7 million, or 2.2% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. General and administrative expenses were $31.8 million, or 2.5% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. General and administrative expenses included $2.9 million of U.S. HealthWorks acquisition costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA
Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA was $73.0 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the critical illness recovery hospital segment was 15.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 15.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our critical illness recovery hospital segment experienced a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a result of the temporary closure of our hospital located in Panama City, Florida. The temporary closure resulted from damage sustained from Hurricane Michael in October 2018.
Rehabilitation Hospital Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA was $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $26.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the rehabilitation hospital segment was 13.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 15.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decreases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for our rehabilitation hospital segment were primarily driven by an increase in Adjusted EBITDA losses in our start-up hospitals and the write-off of uncollectible accounts in one of our joint venture subsidiaries during the three months ended March 31, 2019, as described above under “Operating Expenses.” Adjusted EBITDA start-up losses were $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA was $29.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $30.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the outpatient rehabilitation segment was 10.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 11.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were impacted by increases in employee costs relative to our net operating revenues. We also experienced a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin as a result of an increase in our contracted labor services, which we provide at cost.
Concentra Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA increased 14.6% to $66.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $57.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which included the operating results of U.S. HealthWorks beginning February 1, 2018. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin for the Concentra segment was 16.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 16.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2018.The increase in Adjusted EBITDA margin resulted from achieving lower relative operating costs across our combined Concentra and U.S. HealthWorks businesses.
Other.    The Adjusted EBITDA loss was $23.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $24.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $52.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $46.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase principally occurred within our Concentra segment due to the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks, which we acquired on February 1, 2018.
Income from Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we had income from operations of $111.7 million, compared to $108.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in income from operations resulted principally from our Concentra segment.

Table of Contents

Loss on Early Retirement of Debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we amended both Select’s senior secured credit facilities and Concentra’s first lien credit agreement which resulted in losses on early retirement of debt of $10.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries
Our equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries relates to businesses in which we are a minority owner. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we had equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries of $4.4 million, compared to $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Non-Operating Gain
We recognized a non-operating gain of $6.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The non-operating gain was attributable to the sale of outpatient rehabilitation clinics to a non-consolidating subsidiary.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $50.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $47.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in interest expense was principally due to an increase in our indebtedness as a result of the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks on February 1, 2018.
Income Taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $18.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which represented an effective tax rate of 25.7%. We recorded income tax expense of $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which represented an effective tax rate of 21.8%. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the lower effective tax rate resulted principally from the discrete tax benefits realized from certain equity interests redeemed at our Concentra subsidiary and completed in connection with the closing of the U.S. HealthWorks acquisition.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests was $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $10.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was principally due to the improved operating performance of our Concentra segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, Concentra incurred costs associated with the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks and the amendment of Concentra’s first lien credit agreement.

Operating activities provided $41.8 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $50.7 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in operating cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, was principally driven by the change in our accounts receivable. We experienced an increase in days sales outstanding to 53 days at March 31, 2019, compared to 51 days at December 31, 2018. We experienced a decline in days sales outstanding to 56 days at March 31, 2018, compared to 58 days at December 31, 2017. Our days sales outstanding will fluctuate based upon variability in our collection cycles. Our days sales outstanding fell within our expected range at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Investing activities used $82.8 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The principal uses of cash were $49.1 million for purchases of property and equipment and $33.7 million for investments in and acquisitions of businesses. Investing activities used $556.0 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The principal uses of cash were $515.0 million related to the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks and $39.6 million for purchases of property and equipment.
Financing activities provided $13.7 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The principal source of cash was net borrowings of $140.0 million on the Select revolving facility. This was offset in party by $98.8 million and $33.9 million for mandatory prepayments of term loans under the Select credit facilities and Concentra credit facilities, respectively.
Financing activities provided $502.4 million of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The principal sources of cash were from the issuance of term loans under the Concentra credit facilities which resulted in net proceeds of $779.9 million and $15.0 million of net borrowings under the Select revolving facility. This was offset in part by $286.6 million of distributions to non-controlling interests, of which $285.4 million related to the redemption and reorganization transactions executed in connection with the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks.

Table of Contents

Capital Resources
Working capital.  We had net working capital of $167.9 million at March 31, 2019, compared to $287.3 million at December 31, 2018. The decrease in net working capital was principally due to the recognition of current operating lease liabilities upon the adoption of ASC Topic 842, Leases, on January 1, 2019.
Select credit facilities. 
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Select made a principal prepayment of $98.8 million associated with its term loans in accordance with the provision in the Select credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Select credit facilities.
At March 31, 2019, Select had outstanding borrowings under the Select credit facilities consisting of $1,031.1 million in Select term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $18.1 million) and borrowings of $160.0 million (excluding letters of credit) under the Select revolving facility. At March 31, 2019, Select had $251.6 million of availability under the Select revolving facility after giving effect to $38.4 million of outstanding letters of credit.
Concentra credit facilities.  Select and Holdings are not parties to the Concentra credit facilities and are not obligors with respect to Concentra’s debt under such agreements. While this debt is non-recourse to Select, it is included in Select’s consolidated financial statements.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Concentra made a principal prepayment of $33.9 million associated with its term loans in accordance with the provision in the Concentra credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Concentra credit facilities.
At March 31, 2019, Concentra had outstanding borrowings under the Concentra credit facilities consisting of $1,380.3 million of Concentra term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $19.4 million). Concentra did not have any borrowings under the Concentra revolving facility. At March 31, 2019, Concentra had $62.3 million of availability under its revolving facility after giving effect to $12.7 million of outstanding letters of credit.
On April 8, 2019, Concentra entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Concentra first lien credit agreement. Amendment No. 5 extends the maturity date of the Concentra revolving credit facility from June 1, 2020 to June 1, 2021 and increases the aggregate commitments available under the Concentra revolving credit facility from $75.0 million to $100.0 million.
Stock Repurchase Program.  Holdings’ board of directors has authorized a common stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $500.0 million worth of shares of its common stock. The program has been extended until December 31, 2019, and will remain in effect until then, unless further extended or earlier terminated by the board of directors. Stock repurchases under this program may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, and at times and in such amounts as Holdings deems appropriate. Holdings funds this program with cash on hand and borrowings under the Select revolving facility. Holdings did not repurchase shares during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Since the inception of the program through March 31, 2019, Holdings has repurchased 35,924,128 shares at a cost of approximately $314.7 million, or $8.76 per share, which includes transaction costs.
Liquidity.  We believe our internally generated cash flows and borrowing capacity under the Select and Concentra credit facilities will be sufficient to finance operations over the next twelve months. We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, may be funded from operating cash flows or other sources and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Use of Capital Resources.  We may from time to time pursue opportunities to develop new joint venture relationships with significant health systems and other healthcare providers. We also intend to open new outpatient rehabilitation clinics and occupational health centers in local areas that we currently serve where we can benefit from existing referral relationships and brand awareness to produce incremental growth. In addition to our development activities, we may grow through opportunistic acquisitions.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our variable rate long-term indebtedness. Our principal interest rate exposure relates to the loans outstanding under the Select credit facilities and Concentra credit facilities.
At March 31, 2019, Select had outstanding borrowings under the Select credit facilities consisting of $1,031.1 million in Select term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $18.1 million) and borrowings of $160.0 million (excluding letters of credit) under the Select revolving facility, which bear interest at variable rates.
At March 31, 2019, Concentra had outstanding borrowings under the Concentra credit facilities consisting of $1,380.3 million of Concentra term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $19.4 million), which bear interest at variable rates. Concentra did not have any borrowings under the Concentra revolving facility.
As of March 31, 2019, each 0.25% increase in market interest rates will impact the interest expense on Select’s and Concentra’s variable rate debt by $6.4 million per annum.
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based on this evaluation, as of March 31, 2019, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including the accumulation and communication of disclosure to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the relevant SEC rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the first quarter ended March 31, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance coverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programs that are designed to respond to the risks of the specific joint venture. The annual aggregate limit under these programs ranges from $5.0 million to $20.0 million. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.
 Evansville Litigation.    On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff‑relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital-Evansville, LLC (“SSH‑Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff‑relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff‑relators are the former CEO and two former case managers at SSH‑Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH‑Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH‑Evansville. The plaintiff‑relators allege that SSH‑Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up‑coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long‑term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.
In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff‑relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non‑retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However, the District Court ruled that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present and allowing discovery that would facilitate the use of statistical sampling to prove liability, which the defendants opposed. In April 2018, a U.S. magistrate judge ruled that plaintiff‑relators’ discovery will be limited to only SSH-Evansville for the period from March 23, 2010 through September 30, 2016, and that the plaintiff‑relators will be required to prove the fraud that they allege on a claim-by-claim basis, rather than using statistical sampling. The plaintiff-relators appealed this decision to the district judge who, in March 2019, affirmed the decision of the magistrate judge regarding the geographic and temporal scope of the case, but ruled that the question of statistical sampling is not ripe for review.
The Company intends to vigorously defend this action, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Wilmington Litigation.    On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH‑Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal in May 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH‑Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in January 2017. The corporate defendants were served in March 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff‑relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH‑Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH‑Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, in May 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim. In March 2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.
In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH‑Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Contract Therapy Subpoena. On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producing documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
