AMN HEALTHCARE ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2022 RESULTS

Quarterly revenue of $1.553 billion;

GAAP EPS of $3.09 and adjusted EPS of $3.49

 

DALLAS — AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. (NYSE: AMN), the leader and innovator in total talent solutions for healthcare organizations across the United States, today announced its first quarter 2022 financial results. Financial highlights are as follows:

 

Dollars in millions, except per share amounts.

   Q1 2022  % Change Q1 2021
Revenue  $1,552.5    75%
Gross profit  $496.2    72%
Net income  $146.0    107%
GAAP diluted EPS  $3.09    111%
Adjusted diluted EPS*  $3.49    105%
Adjusted EBITDA*  $257.6    83%

 

* See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of our use of non-GAAP items and the table entitled “Non-GAAP Reconciliation Tables” for a reconciliation of non-GAAP items.

 

Business Highlights

The AMN team placed a record number of healthcare professionals into temporary assignments and permanent jobs with clients.
All three business segments continue to experience demand for our services and candidate applications well above pre-pandemic levels.
The pipeline for healthcare organizations seeking MSP/VMS and other workforce solutions is exceptionally strong, and AMN was again named the No. 1 healthcare MSP provider by HRO Today.
Our positive outlook reflects our clients’ ongoing needs for an innovative and trusted total solutions partner as they navigate systemic, industry-wide long-term workforce shortages.
Operating cash flow was very strong at $200 million in the quarter, up $122 million from the prior quarter.

 

   

 

 

 

We spent $228 million to repurchase 2.3 million shares during the first quarter while still reducing our net leverage ratio to 1.0:1.

 

“The AMN team continues to play a vital role in delivering a quality patient experience and supporting caregivers across the country. Strong healthcare demand in the first quarter was met with the tightest labor market we have ever seen. Our healthcare professionals and AMN team members worked relentlessly to help address the needs of the healthcare community, reaching our highest placement volume in Company history,” said Susan R. Salka, Chief Executive Officer of AMN Healthcare. “We achieved record performance in our nursing, allied, locum tenens, interim leadership, search, language services, VMS, MSP and RPO businesses in the quarter.

 

“We set expectations last quarter for staffing demand, pay rates and corresponding pricing to trend down to more sustainable levels, and we are pleased to see that the market is moving in line with our expectations,” Ms. Salka said. “While the pressure of the pandemic has eased, healthcare organizations are still understaffed due to a severe labor shortage, high attrition, changing workforce preferences, and intense competition for professionals. These conditions are driving a greater need for our powerful portfolio of diversified solutions. The opportunities ahead for AMN are greater than ever before.”

 

First Quarter 2022 Results

Consolidated revenue for the quarter was $1.553 billion, a 75% increase over prior year and 14% above prior quarter. Excluding labor disruption revenue, consolidated revenue grew 22% sequentially. Net income was $146 million (9.4% of revenue), or $3.09 per diluted share, compared with $70 million (7.9% of revenue), or $1.47 per diluted share, in first quarter 2021. Adjusted diluted EPS in the first quarter was $3.49 compared with $1.70 in the same quarter of the prior year.

 

Revenue for the Nurse and Allied Solutions segment was $1.228 billion up 87% year over year and up 14% from the prior quarter. Travel nurse staffing revenue grew 95% year over year, with allied division revenue up 64%.

The Physician and Leadership Solutions segment reported revenue of $180 million, growing 28% year over year and 10% sequentially. Locum tenens revenue was $113 million, up 30% year over year and 13% sequentially. Interim leadership revenue grew by 14% year over year and by 2% sequentially. Our physician and leadership search businesses produced revenue growth of 46% year over year and 8% sequentially.

 

Technology and Workforce Solutions segment revenue was $145 million, an increase of 64% year over year and 23% sequentially. Language services revenue was $49 million in the quarter, 20% higher than the prior year. Vendor management systems revenue was $75 million growing 136% year over year. Outsourced solutions, workforce optimization, and other technology solutions achieved strong revenue growth in the quarter.

 

Consolidated gross margin was 32.0%, 60 basis points lower year over year and up 10 basis points sequentially. Gross margin was lower year over year due primarily to higher clinician pay packages and a revenue mix shift toward lower-margin staffing businesses, partly offset by favorable changes in workers’ compensation reserves.

 

Consolidated SG&A expenses were $258 million, or 16.6% of revenue, compared with $161 million, or 18.2% of revenue, in the same quarter last year. SG&A was $239 million, or 17.5% of revenue, in the previous quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increase in SG&A costs was driven primarily by higher employee and related expenses associated with business growth. SG&A margin improved year over year due to operating leverage on increased revenue.

 

Income from operations was $208 million with an operating margin of 13.4%, compared with $104 million and 11.8%, respectively, in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $258 million, a year-over-year increase of 83%. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.6%, representing an increase of 70 basis points year over year.

 

At March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled $113 million. Cash flow from operations was $200 million for the quarter, and capital expenditures were $14 million. The

 3 

 

Company ended the quarter with total debt outstanding of $850 million and a net leverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.

 

During the first quarter, the Company used $228 million of cash to repurchase 2.3 million shares of our stock. As of March 31, 2022, $250 million remained under our stock repurchase authorization.

Second Quarter 2022 Outlook

 

Metric   Guidance*

Gross margin   31.5% - 32.0%
SG&A as percentage of revenue   16.4% - 16.9%

Adjusted EBITDA margin   15.8% - 16.3%

*Note: Guidance percentage metrics are approximate. For a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA margin, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Guidance Operating Margin to Guidance Adjusted EBITDA Margin” below.

 

Revenue in the second quarter of 2022 is expected to be 56-61% higher than prior year. Revenue guidance includes $65-70 million from labor disruption activities. Excluding labor disruption, Nurse and Allied Solutions segment revenue is expected to grow 57-60% year over year. For the Physician and Leadership Solutions segment, revenue is expected to be approximately 20% higher than prior year. Technology and Workforce Solutions segment revenue is expected to grow by approximately 45% compared with the year-ago period.

 

Second quarter estimates for certain other financial items include depreciation of $12 million, non-cash amortization expense of $20 million, stock-based compensation expense of $9 million, interest expense of $9.5 million, integration and other expenses of $4 million, an adjusted tax rate of 27%, and approximately 45.5 million diluted shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP Measures

This earnings release and the non-GAAP reconciliation tables included with the earnings release contain certain non-GAAP financial information, which the Company provides as additional information, and not as an alternative, to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include (1) adjusted EBITDA, (2) adjusted EBITDA margin, (3) adjusted net income and (4) adjusted diluted EPS. The Company provides such non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that they are useful to both management and investors as a supplement, and not as a substitute, when evaluating the Company’s operating performance. Additionally, management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS serve as industry-wide financial measures. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA for making financial decisions, allocating resources and for determining certain incentive compensation objectives. The non-GAAP measures in this release are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures, or may be calculated differently than other similarly titled non-GAAP measures, reported by other companies. They should not be used in isolation to evaluate the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures identified in this release, along with further detail about the use and limitations of certain of these non-GAAP measures, may be found below in the table entitled “Non-GAAP Reconciliation Tables” under the caption entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Items” and the footnotes thereto or on the Company’s website at https://ir.amnhealthcare.com/financials/quarterly-results/default.aspx. Additionally, from time to time, additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures, including pro forma measures, may be made available on the Company’s website.

 

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements concerning

 7 

 

the intensity, impact and duration of and reasons behind the workforce shortages, demand and pipeline for our workforce solutions and other services, volume candidate applications, pricing of our services and labor pay rates, ability to attract new clients and future opportunities, opportunities ahead for AMN and the vital role it plays in healthcare delivery, second quarter 2022 financial projections for consolidated and segment revenue, revenue from labor disruption activities, consolidated gross margin, operating margin, SG&A as a percent of revenue, adjusted EBITDA margin, depreciation expense, non-cash amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, integration and other expenses, adjusted tax rate, and number of diluted shares outstanding. The Company bases these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, estimates and projections about future events and the industry in which it operates using information currently available to it. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are also identified by words such as “believe,” “project,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “may,” “estimates,” variations of such words and other similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.

The targets and expectations noted in this release depend upon, among other factors, (i) the magnitude and duration of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on demand and supply trends, our business, its financial condition and our results of operations, (ii) our ability to effectively address client demand by attracting and placing nurses and other clinicians, (iii) our ability to recruit and retain sufficient quality healthcare professionals at reasonable costs, (iv) our ability to anticipate and quickly respond to changing marketplace conditions, such as alternative modes of healthcare delivery, reimbursement, or client needs and requirements, including mandatory vaccination, (v) our ability to manage the pricing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and consolidation of healthcare delivery organizations may have on our business, (vi) the duration and extent to which hospitals and other healthcare entities adjust their utilization of temporary nurses and allied healthcare professionals, physicians, healthcare leaders and other healthcare professionals and workforce technology applications as a result of the labor market, economic conditions or COVID-19 pandemic, (vii) the effects of economic downturns, inflation or slow recoveries, which could result in less demand for our services, pricing pressures and negatively impact payments terms and collectability of accounts receivable, (viii) our ability to develop and evolve our current technology offerings and capabilities and implement new infrastructure and technology systems to optimize our operating results and manage our business effectively, (ix) our ability and the expense to comply with extensive and complex federal and state laws and regulations related to the conduct of our operations, costs and payment for services and payment for referrals as well as laws regarding employment practices, (x) our ability to consummate and effectively incorporate acquisitions into our business, (xi) the negative

 8 

 

effects that intermediary organizations may have on our ability to secure new and profitable contracts, (xii) the ability of our clients to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their staffing management and recruiting efforts, through predictive analytics, online recruiting, telemedicine or otherwise, (xiii) the extent to which a spike in the COVID-19 pandemic may disrupt our operations due to the unavailability of our employees or healthcare professionals due to illness, risk of illness, quarantines, travel restrictions, mandatory vaccination requirements, or other factors that limit our existing or potential workforce and pool of candidates, and (xiv) the severity and duration of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on the financial condition and cash flow of many hospitals and healthcare systems such that it impairs their ability to make payments to us, timely or otherwise, for services rendered.

For a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above that could cause actual results to differ from those implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release, please refer to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Be advised that developments subsequent to this press release are likely to cause these statements to become outdated and the Company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligation) to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

(1)Operating margin represents income from operations divided by revenue.
(2)Changes in the fair value of equity investments and instruments are recognized in interest expense, net, and other. Since the changes in fair value are unrelated to the Company’s operating performance, we exclude the impact from the calculation of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS.
(3)A portion of depreciation expense for AMN Language Services is included in cost of revenue. We exclude the impact of depreciation included in cost of revenue from the calculation of adjusted EBITDA.
(4)Acquisition, integration, and other costs include acquisition and integration costs, net changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities for recently acquired companies, certain legal expenses, restructuring expenses, and certain nonrecurring expenses, which we exclude from the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted EPS because we believe that these expenses are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, acquisition and integration costs were approximately $500,000 and expenses related to the closures of certain office leases were approximately $6,400,000. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, acquisition and integration costs were approximately $900,000, expenses related to the closures of certain office leases were approximately $8,700,000, and certain legal expenses were approximately $7,000,000. Additionally, acquisition, integration, and other costs for the three months ended December 31, 2021 included an adjustment of $2,264,000 to correct an immaterial out-of-period error identified in the fourth quarter related to the write-off of assets recognized in prior years from costs incurred to fulfill a contract with a customer.
(5)Adjusted EBITDA represents net income plus interest expense (net of interest income) and other, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, depreciation (included in cost of revenue), acquisition, integration, and other costs, restructuring expenses, certain legal expenses, and share-based compensation. Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides an effective measure of the Company’s results, as it excludes certain items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor has it been presented as an alternative to income from operations or net income as an indicator of operating performance. Although management believes that some of the items excluded from adjusted EBITDA are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance, these items do impact the statement of comprehensive income, and management therefore utilizes adjusted EBITDA as an operating performance measure in conjunction with GAAP measures such as net income.
(6)Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
(7)The Company records net tax expense (benefit) related to the income tax treatment of the fair value changes in the cash surrender value of its company owned life insurance. Since this change in fair value is unrelated to the Company’s operating performance, we excluded the impact on adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS.
(8)The consolidated effective tax rate is affected by the recording of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies relating to equity awards vested during the period. As a result of the adoption of a new accounting pronouncement on January 1, 2017, the Company no longer records excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to additional paid-in capital, but such excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are now recognized in income tax expense. The magnitude of the impact of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies generated in the future, which may be favorable or unfavorable, is dependent upon the Company’s future grants of share-based compensation and the Company’s future stock price on the date awards vest in relation to the fair value of the awards on the grant date. Since these excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are largely unrelated to our income before taxes and are unrepresentative of our normal effective tax rate, we excluded their impact in the calculation of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS.
(9)Adjusted net income represents GAAP net income excluding the impact of the (A) amortization of intangible assets, (B) acquisition, integration, and other costs, (C) certain legal expenses, (D) changes in fair value of equity investments and instruments, (E) deferred financing related costs, (F) tax effect, if any, of the foregoing adjustments, (G) excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies relating to equity awards vested and exercised since January 1, 2017, and (H) net tax expense (benefit) related to the income tax treatment of fair value changes in the cash surrender value of its company owned life insurance, and (I) restructuring tax benefits. Management included this non-GAAP measure to provide investors and prospective investors with an alternative method for assessing the Company’s operating results in a manner that is focused on its operating performance and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. However, investors and prospective investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgment by management (in particular, judgment as to what is classified as a special item to be excluded in the calculation of adjusted net income). Although management believes the items in the calculation of adjusted net income are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance, these items do impact the statement of comprehensive income, and management therefore utilizes adjusted net income as an operating performance measure in conjunction with GAAP measures such as GAAP net income.

(10)Adjusted diluted EPS represents adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Management included this non-GAAP measure to provide investors and prospective investors with an alternative method for assessing the Company’s operating results in a manner that is focused on its operating performance and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. However, investors and prospective investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgment by management (in particular, judgment as to what is classified as a special item to be excluded in the calculation of adjusted net income). Although management believes the items in the calculation of adjusted net income are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance, these items do impact the statement of comprehensive income, and management therefore utilizes adjusted diluted EPS as an operating performance measure in conjunction with GAAP measures such as GAAP diluted EPS.
(11)Segment operating income represents net income plus interest expense (net of interest income) and other, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, depreciation (included in cost of revenue), unallocated corporate overhead, acquisition, integration, and other costs, and share-based compensation.
(12)Unallocated corporate overhead (as presented in the tables above) consists of unallocated corporate overhead (as reflected in our quarterly and annual financial statements filed with the SEC) less acquisition, integration, and other costs.
(13)Average travelers on assignment represents the average number of nurse and allied healthcare professionals on assignment during the period presented.
(14)Days filled is calculated by dividing the locum tenens hours filled during the period by eight hours.
(15)Revenue per day filled represents revenue of the Company’s locum tenens business divided by days filled for the period presented.
(16)Leverage ratio represents the ratio of the Company’s debt outstanding (including the outstanding letters of credit collateralized by the senior credit facility) minus cash and cash equivalents at the end of the subject period to adjusted EBITDA for the twelve-month period ended at the end of the subject period.
(17)Guidance percentage metrics are approximate.
