Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On August 2, 2011, AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

 

The information provided pursuant to this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, is “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, and shall not be incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filings.

 

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Specifically, the Company presents “Adjusted EBITDAR” and “Adjusted EBITDA.”  The Company defines: (i) Adjusted EBITDAR as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), acquisition costs (net of gains), loss on extinguishment of debt, derivative loss, other income from recovery of receivable, retirement and salary continuation costs, and rent cost; and (ii) Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), acquisition costs (net of gains), loss on extinguishment of debt, derivative loss, other income from recovery of receivable, and retirement and salary continuation costs.

 

Adjusted EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by or used in operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP.  Adjusted EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDA are used by the Company’s management to focus on operating performance and management without mixing in items of income and expense that relate to the financing and capitalization of the business, fixed rent or lease payments of facilities, derivative loss and certain gains on acquisitions.  The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons:

 

·                                          they are helpful in identifying trends in the Company’s day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the Company’s day-to-day operations;

 

·                                          they provide an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions, which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and

 

·                                          they are an indication to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

 

The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful and consistent comparison of the Company’s underlying business between periods by eliminating certain items required by GAAP, which have little or no significance in the Company’s day-to-day operations.

 

Reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures are included in press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

 

Item 9.01.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.
