The information contained herein is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8‑K, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” and Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, “Regulation FD Disclosure.” This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 6, 2025, Encompass Health Corporation (“Encompass Health” or the “Company”) issued a press release reporting the financial results of the Company for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024. A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The Company uses “same-store” comparisons to explain the changes in certain performance metrics within its financial statements. Same-store comparisons are calculated based on hospitals open throughout both the full current and prior periods presented. These comparisons include the financial results of market consolidation transactions and capacity expansions (including the addition of satellite and remote hospitals) in existing markets, as it is difficult to determine, with precision, the incremental impact of these transactions on the Company's results of operations.
ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
See Item 2.02, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” above.
In addition, a copy of the supplemental information which will be discussed during the Company’s earnings call at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, February 7, 2025 is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial data contained in the press release and supplemental information include non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s adjusted earnings per share, leverage ratio, Adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted free cash flow.
The Company is providing adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health (“adjusted earnings per share”). The Company believes the presentation of adjusted earnings per share provides useful additional information to investors because it provides better comparability of ongoing operating performance to prior periods given that it excludes the impact of government, class action, and related settlements; professional fees—accounting, tax, and legal; mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights; gains or losses related to hedging and equity instruments; loss on early extinguishment of debt; adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims); items related to corporate and facility restructurings; and certain other items the Company believes to be non-indicative of its ongoing operating performance. It is reasonable to expect that one or more of these excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly relate to the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Accordingly, they can complicate comparisons of the Company’s results of operations across periods and comparisons of the Company’s results to those of other healthcare companies. Adjusted earnings per share should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) as the items excluded from it are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted earnings per share is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable as presented to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company reconciles adjusted earnings per share to earnings per share in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the supplemental information attached as Exhibit 99.2.
The leverage ratio referenced therein is defined as the ratio of consolidated total debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. The Company believes its leverage ratio and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of its ability to service its debt and its ability to make capital expenditures. Additionally, the leverage ratio is a standard measurement used by investors to gauge the creditworthiness of an institution. The Company’s credit agreement also includes a maximum leverage ratio financial covenant which allows the Company to deduct cash on hand from consolidated total debt. In calculating the leverage ratio under our credit agreement, we are permitted to use pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, the calculation of which includes historical income statement items and pro forma adjustments, subject to certain limitations, resulting from (1) dispositions and repayments or incurrence of debt and (2) investments, acquisitions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and other operational changes to the extent such items or effects are not yet reflected in our trailing four-quarter financial statements. The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities and net income in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the supplemental information attached as Exhibit 99.2.



The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis as a liquidity measure. The Company believes this financial measure on a consolidated basis is important in analyzing its liquidity because it is the key component of certain material covenants contained within the Company’s credit agreement, which is discussed in more detail in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and Note 9, Long-term Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10‑K”), when filed. 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 the Company’s lenders requiring the Company to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If the Company anticipated a potential covenant violation, it would seek relief from its lenders, which would have some cost to the Company, and such relief might be on terms less favorable to those in the Company’s existing credit agreement. In addition, if the Company cannot satisfy these financial covenants, it would be prohibited under the credit agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, paying common stock dividends, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA is critical to the Company’s assessment of its liquidity.
In general terms, the credit agreement definition of Adjusted EBITDA, therein referred to as “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA,” allows the Company to add back to consolidated net income interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization and then add back to consolidated net income (1) all unusual or nonrecurring items reducing consolidated net income (of which only up to $10 million in a year may be cash expenditures), (2) any losses from discontinued operations, (3) non-ordinary course fees, costs and expenses incurred with respect to any litigation or settlement, (4) share-based compensation expense, (5) costs and expenses associated with changes in the fair value of marketable securities, (6) costs and expenses associated with the issuance or prepayment of debt and acquisitions, and (7) any restructuring charges and certain pro-forma cost savings and synergies related to transactions and initiatives, which in the aggregate are not in excess of 25% of Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA. The Company also subtracts from consolidated net income all unusual or nonrecurring items to the extent they increase consolidated net income.
The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under the credit agreement does not require us to deduct net income attributable to noncontrolling interests or gains on fair value adjustments of hedging and equity instruments, disposal of assets, and development activities. It also does not allow us to add back losses on fair value adjustments of hedging instruments or unusual or nonrecurring cash expenditures in excess of $10 million. These items and amounts, in addition to the items falling within the credit agreement’s “unusual or nonrecurring” classification, may occur in future periods, but can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly relate to, or be indicative of, the Company's ongoing liquidity or operating performance. Accordingly, the Adjusted EBITDA calculation presented here includes adjustments for them.
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 2024 Form 10‑K, when filed.
The Company also uses adjusted free cash flow as an analytical indicator to assess its performance. Management believes the presentation of adjusted free cash flow provides investors an efficient means by which they can evaluate the Company’s capacity to reduce debt, pursue development activities, and return capital to its common stockholders. The calculation of adjusted free cash flow and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow are included in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the supplemental information attached as Exhibit 99.2. This measure is not a defined measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. The Company's definition of adjusted free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations minus capital expenditures for maintenance, distributions to noncontrolling interests, and certain items deemed to be non-indicative of ongoing operating performance. Common stock dividends are not included in the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. The Company’s definition of adjusted free cash flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary spending. Because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. See the consolidated statements of cash flows included in the 2024 Form 10‑K, when filed, and in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 for the GAAP measures of cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.



Forward-Looking Statements
The information contained in the press release and supplemental information includes certain estimates, projections, and other forward-looking statements that involve known and unknown risks and relate to, among other things, future events, the business model, strategy, outlook and guidance, growth targets, labor cost trends, financial plans, dividend strategies or payments, effective income tax rates, plans to repurchase its debt or equity securities, future financial performance, projected business results, ability to return value to its shareholders, projected capital expenditures and development plans, leverage ratio, guidance considerations, and the impact of future legislation or regulation. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “targets,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These estimates, projections, and other forward-looking statements are based on assumptions the Company believes, as of the date hereof, are reasonable. Inevitably, there will be differences between such estimates and actual results, and those differences may be material.
There can be no assurance that any estimates, projections, or forward-looking statements will be realized.
All such estimates, projections, and forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update or revise that information.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the estimates, projections, and other forward-looking statements in this report, the press release, and supplemental information as they are based on current expectations and general assumptions and are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those set forth in the attached press release and in the 2024 Form 10‑K, when filed, and in other documents the Company previously filed with the SEC, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. These factors may cause actual results to differ materially from the views, beliefs, and estimates expressed herein.

Other information
The information in this press release is summarized and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), when filed, as well as the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 6, 2025 (the “Q4 Earnings Form 8-K”), to which this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1. In addition, the Company will post supplemental information today on its website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com for reference during its February 7, 2025 earnings call.
The financial data contained in the press release and supplemental information include non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s adjusted earnings per share, leverage ratio, Adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted free cash flow. Reconciliations to their most comparable GAAP measure, except with regard to non-GAAP guidance, are included below or in the Q4 Earnings Form 8-K. Readers are encouraged to review the “Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in the Q4 Earnings Form 8-K which provides further explanation and disclosure regarding the Company’s use of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Excluding net operating revenues, the Company does not provide guidance on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict, with reasonable certainty, the future impact of items that are deemed to be outside the control of the Company or otherwise not indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Such items include government, class action, and related settlements; professional fees—accounting, tax, and legal; mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights; gains or losses related to hedging instruments; loss on early extinguishment of debt; adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of income tax claims); items related to corporate and facility restructurings; and certain other items the Company believes to be not indicative of its ongoing operations. These items cannot be reasonably predicted and will depend on several factors, including industry and market conditions, and could be material to the Company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
However, the following reasonably estimable GAAP measures for 2025 would be included in a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA if the other reconciling GAAP measures could be reasonably predicted:
Interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees - approximately $125 million
Amortization of debt-related items - approximately $10 million
The Q4 Earnings Form 8-K and, when filed, the 2024 Form 10-K can be found on the Company’s website at http://investor.encompasshealth.com and the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Encompass Health 31 End notes Reconciliations to GAAP provided on pages 24-30. (1) Provider taxes are amounts paid by us to fund, in part, state Medicaid programs. We have historically used the term “provider tax revenues” to represent all amounts received in connection with state Medicaid programs that are not included in the specific Medicaid claim reimbursements we receive. These amounts include state directed and supplemental payment programs associated with Medicaid. We have used the term “net provider tax revenues” to represent the difference between provider taxes paid and the “provider tax revenues” received. (2) During Q4 2023, we recorded an additional reserve totaling approximately $22 million related to appeals pending before the Departmental Appeals Board (DAB) and several federal district courts. The increase in reserve was driven primarily by an increase in unfavorable adjudication outcomes experienced at the DAB during the second half of 2023 and largely offsets the remaining net carrying value of these claims. These appeals relate to claims denied primarily prior to 2018. This adjustment does not impact our reserve methodology for ongoing claims audit programs, including Targeted Probe and Educate (“TPE”) and Review Choice Demonstration (“RCD”) programs. We will continue to pursue ongoing appeals before the DAB and federal district courts where economically beneficial. The impact of the reserve on Q4 2023 Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $16 million, net of noncontrolling interest expense. (3) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s leverage ratio (total consolidated debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure and the leverage ratio as a liquidity measure on an ongoing basis. These measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, the reader should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth. (4) In May of 2023, the governor of South Carolina signed into law S.164, which repealed the requirement of certain healthcare providers to obtain and/or maintain a certificate of need (“CON”). As a result of this repeal, in Q2 2023 we accelerated amortization of approximately $6 million in remaining carrying value of our South Carolina CON assets, increasing depreciation and amortization expense by approximately $6 million and reducing noncontrolling interest in continuing operations by approximately $2 million (related to our joint venture partner’s share of income at one impacted location). The impact of these adjustments have been excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2023 given the non-recurring nature of the CON repeal (Florida is the only other state in recent history to repeal its CON law) is not indicative of ongoing operating performance. (5) In January 2024, we received notice that our joint venture partner, Hospital Sisters Health System, intended to close its acute-care hospital, Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire, WI, in which our joint venture inpatient rehabilitation hospital is located. We closed that joint venture hospital in February 2024 and incurred a one-time impairment charge of $10.4 million. The impact to net income attributable to Encompass Health during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 resulting from the impairment was $1.8 million after reductions for net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $7.3 million and the provision for income tax expense of $1.3 million. (6) In the third quarter of 2024, the Company redeemed $150 million of its 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025. The redemption was completed at 100% of par using cash on hand. As a result of the redemption, the Company recorded a $0.4 million loss on early extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2024. (7) In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company redeemed $100 million of its 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025. The redemption was completed at 100% of par using cash on hand. As a result of the redemption, the Company recorded a $0.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt in the fourth quarter of 2024.


 
Encompass Health 32 End notes (continued) (8) The Company is providing adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Encompass Health (“adjusted earnings per share”), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted earnings per share provides useful additional information to investors because it provides better comparability of ongoing operating performance to prior periods given that it excludes the impact of government, class action, and related settlements, professional fees - accounting, tax, and legal, mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights, gains or losses related to hedging and equity instruments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments, settlements of income tax claims and windfall tax benefits), items related to corporate and facility restructurings, and certain other items deemed to be non-indicative of ongoing operating performance. It is reasonable to expect that one or more of these excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly relate to the Company's ongoing operating performance. Accordingly, they can complicate comparisons of the Company's results of operations across periods and comparisons of the Company's results to those of other healthcare companies. Adjusted earnings per share should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States as the items excluded from it are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted earnings per share is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable as presented to other similarly titled measures of other companies. (9) Income tax adjustments for the fourth quarter and year ended 2024 relate primarily to removal of windfall tax benefits from GAAP earnings per share. Income tax adjustments for the fourth quarter and year ended 2023 relate primarily to state tax expense associated with the spin-off of Enhabit removed from GAAP earnings per share. (10) The definition of adjusted free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, is net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations minus capital expenditures for maintenance, distributions to noncontrolling interests, and certain items deemed to be non-indicative of ongoing operating performance. Common stock dividends are not included in the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. Because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. (11) Our inpatient rehabilitation hospitals (“IRFs”) may operate one or more satellite and/or remote locations. Satellite and remote locations are located proximate to one of our existing IRFs but do not have a separate Medicare provider number. As such, they are considered a bed addition, are included in same store results from the day of opening, and are not included in our count of total open hospitals. As of December 31, 2024, we operate 11 satellite and remote locations. (12) Cash used for net debt redemptions were $242.1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. (13) On October 28, 2013, the Company announced its board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $200 million of its common stock. On February 14, 2014, the Company's board approved an increase in this common stock repurchase authorization from $200 million to $250 million. As of June 30, 2018, the remaining repurchase authorization was approximately $58 million. On July 24, 2018, the Company's board approved resetting the aggregate common stock repurchase authorization to $250 million. As of June 30, 2024, the remaining repurchase authorization was approximately $181 million. On July 24, 2024, the Company’s board approved resetting the aggregate common stock repurchase authorization to $500 million. As of December 31, 2024, the remaining repurchase authorization was approximately $489 million. (14) Same-store comparisons are calculated based on hospitals open throughout both the full current periods and prior periods presented. These comparisons include the financial results of market consolidation transactions and capacity expansions (including the addition of satellite and remote hospitals) in existing markets. (15) Represents discharges from 166 consolidated hospitals in Q4 2024; 165 consolidated hospitals in Q3 2024; 163 consolidated hospitals in Q2 2024; 160 consolidated hospitals in Q1 2024; 161 consolidated hospitals in Q4 2023; 159 consolidated hospitals in Q3 2023; 158 consolidated hospitals in Q2 2023; and 156 consolidated hospitals in Q1 2023. (16) Total full-time equivalents included in the table represent Encompass Health employees who participate in or support the operations of our hospitals and include full-time equivalents related to contract labor. (17) Employees per occupied bed, or “EPOB,” is calculated by dividing the number of total full-time equivalents, including full-time equivalents from the utilization of contract labor, by the number of occupied beds during each period. Reconciliations to GAAP provided on pages 24-30.
