CCA Announces 2010 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Financial Results

Fourth Quarter Diluted EPS Increased 8.3% to $0.39
Full Year Diluted EPS up 5.3% to $1.39
Full Year Adjusted Diluted EPS Up 10.2%

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — February 9, 2011 — CCA (NYSE: CXW) (the “Company” or “Corrections Corporation of America”), America’s leader in partnership corrections and the nation’s largest provider of corrections management services to government agencies, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2010.

Financial Review — Fourth Quarter 2010 Compared with Fourth Quarter 2009

	•		Diluted EPS up 8.3% to $0.39 from $0.36
	•		Operating income up 3.8% to $87.1 million from $83.9 million
	•		EBITDA increased 4.7% to $114.3 million from $109.2 million
	•		Adjusted Funds From Operations Per Diluted Share up 3.6% to $0.57 from $0.55

For the fourth quarter of 2010, CCA generated net income of $43.7 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared with net income of $42.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Total management revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010 increased 3.6% to $430.8 million from $415.8 million during the prior year period, primarily driven by a 4.3% increase in average daily inmate populations. Management revenue from our federal partners increased 6.6% to $181.8 million generated during the fourth quarter of 2010 compared with $170.7 million generated during the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in federal revenue primarily resulted from commencement of a new contract with the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) at our Nevada Southern Detention Center, as well as an increase in USMS populations at facilities generally located in the southwestern region of the country. These increases were partially offset by the September 30, 2010, expiration of the contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at our California City Correctional Center. Management revenue from our state partners increased 2.4% to $220.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2010 compared with $215.4 million during the same period in 2009. State revenue increased primarily as a result of higher inmate populations predominantly from the states of California, Georgia and Florida. The increases in populations were partially offset by reductions in inmate populations from the states of Arizona, Alaska, Colorado and Minnesota.

EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2010 increased 4.7% to $114.3 million from $109.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in EBITDA is primarily due to the overall increase in inmate populations. Funds From Operations decreased slightly to $81.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2010 from $82.0 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted Funds From Operations, which includes maintenance and technology capital expenditures, for the fourth quarter of 2010 decreased to $62.9

million compared with $64.0 million during the prior year period. Adjusted Funds From Operations per diluted share increased to $0.57 during the fourth quarter of 2010 from $0.55 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations both decreased due to an increase in income taxes paid over the prior year period primarily as a result of lower tax credits.

Our per share results were favorably impacted by the purchase of 7.1 million shares of our outstanding stock during 2010, at an aggregate cost of $145.7 million, pursuant to a share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors in February 2010. These shares were repurchased with cash on hand, cash provided by operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility.

Our total average daily compensated population increased 4.3% to 80,777 in the fourth quarter of 2010 from 77,426 in the fourth quarter of 2009. Our total portfolio occupancy decreased to 89.7% during the fourth quarter of 2010 from 91.7% during the fourth quarter of 2009. The decline in occupancy is due to a 6.6% increase in our average number of available beds to 90,037 during the fourth quarter of 2010 from 84,457 during the prior year quarter. The increase in average available beds was due to the completion of our Nevada Southern Detention Center in September 2010, which began receiving detainees in October 2010, and the completed expansions of our Coffee and Wheeler facilities located in Georgia in May 2010 combined with commencement of new managed only contracts at two facilities in Florida.

Commenting on the fourth quarter financial results, Chief Executive Officer, Damon Hininger, stated, “We are pleased with our fourth quarter financial results, as we generated meaningful year-over-year earnings per share growth, and continued to improve operating margins in the managed-only and owned and managed segments of our business. Additionally we are pleased our populations have remained strong, in excess of the 80,000 inmate milestone we surpassed late in 2010.”

Full-Year 2010 Compared with Full-Year 2009

	•		Diluted EPS up 5.3% to $1.39 from $1.32
	•		Adjusted Diluted EPS increased 10.2% to $1.41 from $1.28
	•		Adjusted Funds From Operations Per Diluted Share up 16.2% to $2.37 from $2.04
	•		Adjusted EBITDA up 4.8% to $427.1 million from $407.4 million

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, CCA generated net income of $157.2 million, or $1.39 per diluted share, compared with net income of $155.0 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009.

Adjusted net income during 2010 increased to $158.9 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, compared with $150.4 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, during 2009. Adjusted net income for 2010 excludes a non-cash charge of $1.7 million for the write-off of goodwill associated with the termination of the management contracts for the Gadsden and Hernando facilities located in Florida. Adjusted net income for 2009 excludes the reversal of reserves for uncertain tax positions and other income tax credits as well as expenses associated with debt refinancing transactions.

Operating income increased to $323.1 million during 2010 from $307.4 million during the prior year, an increase of 5.1%. The improvement in our financial results for 2010 resulted from a 3.2% increase in our average daily inmate populations, to 78,319 for 2010 from 75,911 during 2009, combined with the implementation of cost savings strategies resulting from a company-wide initiative to improve operating efficiencies. Operating expenses during 2010 included $4.1 million of bonuses paid to non-management

level staff in-lieu of wage increases. General and administrative expenses for 2009 included $4.2 million of consulting fees associated with the company-wide initiative to improve operating efficiencies.

In addition to our operational improvements, per share results for 2010 were favorably impacted by the aforementioned share repurchase program.

Adjusted net income, EBITDA, Funds From Operations, Adjusted Funds From Operations, and their corresponding per share amounts, are measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Please refer to the Supplemental Financial Information and related note following the financial statements herein for further discussion and reconciliations of these measures to GAAP measures.

Operations Highlights

For the quarters ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, key operating statistics for the continuing operations (i.e. excluding discontinued operations) of CCA were as follows:

		Quarter Ended December 31,
Metric		2010				2009				%Change
Average Available Beds			90,037				84,457				6.6	%
Average Compensated Occupancy			89.7	%			91.7	%			-2.2	%
Total Compensated Man-Days			7,431,466				7,123,206				4.3	%
Average Daily Compensated Population			80,777				77,426				4.3	%
Revenue per Compensated Man-Day		$	57.97			$	58.37				-0.7	%
Operating Expense per Compensated Man-Day:
Fixed			29.81				30.09				-0.9	%
Variable			9.41				9.75				-3.5	%
Total			39.22				39.84				-1.6	%
Operating Margin per Compensated Man-Day		$	18.75			$	18.53				1.2	%
Operating Margin			32.3	%			31.7	%			1.9	%

Revenue per compensated man-day in the fourth quarter of 2010 decreased 0.7% to $57.97 from $58.37 in the fourth quarter of 2009. However, operating expenses per compensated man-day decreased 1.6% to $39.22 from $39.84. A change in the mix of inmate populations and a change in mission at our T. Don Hutto facility from housing families to female detainees at the end of 2009 contributed to reductions in both revenue and expenses per compensated man-day.

As of February 1, 2011, we had approximately 11,600 unoccupied beds at facilities that had availability of 100 or more beds, and an additional 1,124 beds under development. This inventory of beds available is reduced to approximately 9,200 beds after taking into consideration the beds committed pursuant to management contracts and an Intent to Award from the state of California.

Partnership Development Update

In November 2010, we announced that the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) renewed its contract with us to manage up to 9,588 California inmates and also notified us of its Intent to Award an additional contract to manage up to 3,256 offenders (the Intent to Award). In January 2011, newly elected California Governor Jerry Brown proposed a state budget which calls for a

significant reallocation of responsibilities between the state government and local jurisdictions, including transferring some number of inmates from state custody to the custody of cities and counties. At this point in time it is too early to reasonably assess the opportunities or challenges that could develop as a result of this proposal. As it relates to the Intent to Award for the additional beds with the state of California, we do not believe we will execute a final agreement until the state finalizes its fiscal year 2012 budget.

Liquidity Update

In February 2010, we announced a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $250.0 million of our common stock through June 30, 2011. Through January 31, 2011, we have purchased 7.6 million shares at a total cost of $156.3 million. As of January 31, 2011, we had 109.3 million shares outstanding.

At December 31, 2010, our liquidity was provided by cash on hand of $25.5 million and $228.2 million available under our credit facility. We believe we have the ability to fund our capital expenditure requirements, stock repurchase program, working capital and debt service requirements with cash on hand, net cash provided by operations, and borrowings available under our revolving credit facility. None of our outstanding debt requires scheduled principal repayments, and we have no debt maturities until December 2012.

In November 2010 we disclosed that at September 30, 2010, we had accounts receivable outstanding from the state of California totaling $95.9 million, including past due amounts caused by delays in the passage of the state budget for fiscal year 2011. As of January 31, 2011, California had repaid all past due amounts.

Guidance

We expect EPS for the first quarter of 2011 to be in the range of $0.32 to $0.33 and full year 2011 EPS to be in the range of $1.37 to $1.45, with full year Adjusted Funds From Operations Per Diluted Share to be in the range of $2.27 to $2.41.

Although the economy has begun to show signs of improvement, our state partners continue to struggle with their challenging budget situations, which tend to lag the overall economy. Our earnings guidance incorporates our best estimate of the range of potential outcomes related to budget uncertainties and other variables, including the risk of population declines from our partners, and the potential for additional pricing pressure.

We believe the long-term growth opportunities of our business remain attractive as our partners seek cost effective corrections solutions and as insufficient bed development by our partners should result in a return to the supply and demand imbalance that has benefitted the partnership corrections industry.

During 2011, we expect to invest approximately $113.0 million to $128.0 million in capital expenditures, consisting of approximately $63.0 million to $73.0 million in on-going prison construction and expenditures related to potential land acquisitions and $50.0 million to $55.0 million in maintenance and information technology. We also expect an effective income tax rate of approximately 38.0%, with payments for income taxes expected to approximate $64.8 million to $68.6 million for the full year.

NOTE TO SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations, and their corresponding per share metrics are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and are used to review and assess operating performance of the Company and its correctional facilities and their management teams. The Company believes that it is useful to provide investors, lenders and security analysts disclosures of its results of operations on the same basis as that used by management.

Management and investors review both the Company’s overall performance using GAAP and non-GAAP measures including EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net income, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations, and their corresponding per share metrics, as well as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of the Company’s correctional facilities. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations are useful as supplemental measures of the performance of the Company’s correctional facilities because they do not take into account depreciation and amortization, or with respect to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, the impact of the Company’s tax provisions and financing strategies. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), this accounting presentation assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes at a level rate over time. Because of the unique structure, design and use of the Company’s correctional facilities, management believes that assessing performance of the Company’s correctional facilities without the impact of depreciation or amortization is useful. The calculation of Adjusted Funds From Operations substitutes capital expenditures incurred to maintain the functionality and condition of the Company’s correctional facilities in lieu of a provision for depreciation. Some of these capital expenditures contain a discretionary element with respect to when they are incurred, while others may be more urgent. Therefore, maintenance capital expenditures may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, depending on the nature of the expenditures required, seasonal factors such as weather, and budgetary conditions. The calculation of Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations also reflect the amount of income taxes paid. We continuously evaluate tax planning strategies to reduce the effective tax rate for financial reporting purposes as well as strategies to reduce the amount of taxes we pay. As a result, the amount of taxes we pay may fluctuate from period to period depending on the effectiveness of our strategies. The amount of taxes we pay may also result from many factors beyond our control, such as changes in tax law. Finally, income taxes paid fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter based on statutory methods of computing inter-period payment requirements and the date such taxes are due.

The Company may make adjustments to GAAP net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations from time to time for certain other income and expenses that it considers non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, even though such items may require cash settlement, because such items do not reflect a necessary component of the ongoing operations of the Company. Other companies may calculate Adjusted net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations differently than the Company does, or adjust for other items, and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations, and their corresponding per share measures are not measures of performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. This data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
