财报
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. (NYSE: MD), the nation’s leading provider of highly specialized health care for women, children and babies, today reported earnings from continuing operations of $0.17 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023. On a non-GAAP basis, Pediatrix reported Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.23.
'Our first quarter operating results were in line with our expectations and reflected modest improvements in revenue cycle management operations'
For the 2023 first quarter, Pediatrix reported the following results from continuing operations:
Net revenue of $491 million;
Income from continuing operations of $14 million; and
Adjusted EBITDA of $40 million.
“Our first quarter operating results were in line with our expectations and reflected modest improvements in revenue cycle management operations,” said James D. Swift, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Pediatrix Medical Group. “We believe the combination of our continued focus on improved service to our affiliated physicians, our hospital and health system relationships, and our financial strength will position Pediatrix to drive strong results for all of our stakeholders.”
Operating Results from Continuing Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
Pediatrix’s net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $491.0 million, compared to $482.2 million for the prior-year period. Pediatrix’s overall same-unit revenue increased by 2.0 percent, slightly offset by the impact of net acquisition activity.
Same-unit revenue attributable to patient volume increased by 1.6 percent for the 2023 first quarter as compared to the prior-year period. Shown below are year-over-year percentage changes in certain same-unit volume statistics for the three months ended March 31, 2023. (Note: figures in the below table reflect contributions only to net patient service revenue and exclude other contributions to total same-unit revenue, including contract and administrative fees.)

Same-unit revenue from net reimbursement-related factors increased by 0.4 percent for the 2023 first quarter as compared to the prior-year period. This primarily reflects improved collections related to revenue cycle management activities, partially offset by a decrease in Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act relief recorded and a decrease in the percentage of our patients being enrolled in commercial insurance programs.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company recorded no miscellaneous revenue from funds received under the CARES Act, compared to $10.4 million in the prior year period, which decreased the Company’s same-unit revenue from net reimbursement-related factors by 2.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The percentage of services reimbursed by commercial and other non-government payors declined by approximately 70 basis points compared to the prior-year period.
For the 2023 first quarter, practice salaries and benefits expense was $362.2 million, compared to $343.2 million for the prior-year period. This increase primarily reflects same-unit clinical compensation increases and salary increases related to acquisitions completed over the past year, partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation.
For the 2023 first quarter, general and administrative expenses were $59.1 million, as compared to $61.3 million for the prior-year period. This net decrease is primarily related to cost reductions from net staffing reductions completed over the past year.
For the first quarter of 2023, the Company recorded no transformational and restructuring related expenses, compared to $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, which is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and transformational and restructuring related expenses, was $40.1 million for the 2023 first quarter, compared to $50.7 million for the prior-year period. Funds received from the provider relief fund established by the CARES Act favorably impacted Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $6.2 million for the first quarter of 2022.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $9.0 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $8.8 million for the first quarter of 2022.
Investment and other income was $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $0.9 million for the first quarter of 2022.
Interest expense was $10.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $11.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. This decrease primarily reflects lower total debt from the Company’s previously-disclosed refinancing transactions completed during the first quarter of 2022.
Pediatrix generated net income from continuing operations of $14.2 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the 2023 first quarter, based on a weighted average 82.3 million shares outstanding. This compares with a net loss from continuing operations of $21.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the 2022 first quarter, based on a weighted average 85.4 million shares outstanding. The decrease in weighted average shares outstanding is related to share repurchases completed during 2022.
For the first quarter of 2023, Pediatrix reported Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.23, compared to $0.33 for the first quarter of 2022. For these periods, Adjusted EPS from continuing operations is defined as diluted income from continuing operations per common and common equivalent share excluding non-cash amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, transformational and restructuring related expenses, and discrete tax events. For the first quarter of 2022, Adjusted EPS also excludes loss on early extinguishment of debt. Funds received from the provider relief fund established by the CARES Act favorably impacted Adjusted EPS by $0.07 for the first quarter of 2022.
Financial Position and Cash Flow – Continuing Operations
Pediatrix had cash and cash equivalents of $6.1 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $9.8 million on December 31, 2022, and net accounts receivable was $278.7 million.
For the first quarter of 2023, Pediatrix used cash of $100.6 million to fund continuing operations, compared to a use of $89.9 million during the first quarter of 2022. Pediatrix typically uses cash during the first quarter of each year as it pays incentive compensation, primarily to its affiliated physicians, and employee benefit plan matching contributions that were accrued during the prior year. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2023, the Company used $7.0 million to fund capital expenditures.
At March 31, 2023, Pediatrix had total debt outstanding of $752 million, consisting of its $400 million in 5.375% Senior Notes due 2030; $238 million in borrowings under its Term A Loan; and $114 million in borrowings under its revolving line of credit.
2023 Outlook
As previously disclosed, Pediatrix anticipates that its 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, will be in a range of $235 million to $245 million.
