First Quarter Results

Continuing Operations

Consolidated revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011 rose 9% to $1.2 billion compared to $1.1 billion in the first quarter last year. Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2011 totaled $22.3 million or $0.55 per diluted share compared to $15.2 million or $0.38 per diluted share in the first quarter last year.

First quarter 2011 operating results included certain pretax charges of $6.2 million primarily related to the pending acquisition of RehabCare Group, Inc. (“RehabCare”) (NYSE:RHB), the effect of which reduced income from continuing operations by $4.0 million or $0.10 per diluted share.

First quarter 2010 operating results included certain charges that reduced income from continuing operations by $2.3 million or $0.06 per diluted share.

Discontinued Operations

During the past few years, the Company has entered into transactions related to the divestiture of unprofitable businesses. For accounting purposes, the historical operating results of these businesses and losses associated with these operations have been classified as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for all historical periods.

Management Commentary

Paul J. Diaz, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, remarked, “We are pleased to report a good start to the year. Each of our three operating divisions reported continued improvements in their quality and clinical outcome measures which helped drive solid volume and revenue growth. The operating results of recently acquired businesses were in line with our expectations and contributed to our earnings growth as well. Our top-line growth was complemented by improved operating efficiencies across the organization, resulting in significant earnings per share growth compared to the first quarter last year.”

Commenting on the Company’s financial position, Mr. Diaz noted, “In addition to our strong earnings growth in the quarter, we reported a significant increase in operating cash flows. As in the past, these funds will be used to finance our routine and cluster market development capital spending and pay down our debt.”

Commenting on the pending RehabCare acquisition, Mr. Diaz noted, “We are looking forward to the completion of the RehabCare acquisition. The level of support and excitement about this strategic opportunity among employees, customers, hospitals and physician partners is growing and we are making progress on our integration and team-building plans. Our first quarter operating results are particularly impressive in light of all the work being done to complete this transaction and reflect the team’s continued focus on our core operations and the quality of our services.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes 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. All statements regarding the Company’s expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management and statements containing the words such as “anticipate,” “approximate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “intend,” “may” and other similar expressions, are forward-looking statements.

Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and stockholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from the Company’s expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which the Company is unable to predict or control, that may cause the Company’s actual results or performance to differ materially from any future results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed below and detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

In addition to the factors set forth above, other factors that may affect the Company’s plans or results include, without limitation, (a) the Company’s ability to integrate the operations of the acquired hospitals and rehabilitation services operations and realize the anticipated revenues, economies of scale, cost synergies and productivity gains in connection with the RehabCare acquisition and any other acquisitions that may be undertaken during 2011, as and when planned, including the potential for unanticipated issues, expenses and liabilities associated with those acquisitions and the risk that RehabCare fails to meet its expected financial and operating targets, (b) the receipt of all required licensure and regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the RehabCare acquisition, including approval of the pending transaction by the stockholders of the respective companies, and the Company’s ability to complete the required financing as contemplated by the commitment letter, (c) the potential for diversion of management time and resources in seeking to

complete the RehabCare acquisition and integrate its operations, (d) the potential failure to retain key employees of RehabCare, (e) the impact of the Company’s significantly increased levels of indebtedness as a result of the RehabCare acquisition on the Company’s funding costs, operating flexibility and ability to fund ongoing operations, development capital expenditures or other strategic acquisitions with additional borrowings, particularly in light of ongoing volatility in the credit and capital markets, (f) the potential for dilution to the Company’s stockholders as a result of the RehabCare acquisition, (g) the impact of pending or future litigation relating to the RehabCare acquisition, (h) the impact of healthcare reform, which will initiate significant reforms to the United States healthcare system, including potential material changes to the delivery of healthcare services and the reimbursement paid for such services by the government or other third party payors. Healthcare reform will impact each of the Company’s businesses in some manner. Due to the substantial regulatory changes that will need to be implemented by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and others, and the numerous processes required to implement these reforms, the Company cannot predict which healthcare initiatives will be implemented at the federal or state level, the timing of any such reforms, or the effect such reforms or any other future legislation or regulation will have on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations and liquidity, (i) changes in the reimbursement rates or the methods or timing of payment from third party payors, including commercial payors and the Medicare and Medicaid programs, changes arising from and related to the Medicare prospective payment system for long-term acute care (“LTAC”) hospitals, including potential changes in the Medicare payment rules, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003, and changes in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements for nursing centers, and the expiration of the Medicare Part B therapy cap exception process, (j) the effects of additional legislative changes and government regulations, interpretation of regulations and changes in the nature and enforcement of regulations governing the healthcare industry, (k) the Company’s ability to successfully pursue its development activities, including through acquisitions, and successfully integrate new operations, including the realization of anticipated revenues, economies of scale, cost savings and productivity gains associated with such operations, (l) the impact of the Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007 (the “SCHIP Extension Act”), including the ability of the Company’s hospitals to adjust to potential LTAC certification, medical necessity reviews and the moratorium on future hospital development, (m) the impact of the expiration of several moratoriums under the SCHIP Extension Act which could impact the short stay rules, the budget neutrality adjustment as well as implement the policy known as the “25 Percent Rule,” which would limit certain patient admissions, (n) failure of the Company’s facilities to meet applicable licensure and certification requirements, (o) the further consolidation and cost containment efforts of managed care organizations and other third party payors, (p) the Company’s ability to meet its rental and debt service obligations, (q) the Company’s ability to operate pursuant to the terms of its debt obligations, including the Company’s obligations under financings undertaken to complete the RehabCare acquisition, and the Company’s ability to operate pursuant to its master lease agreements with Ventas, Inc. (NYSE:VTR), (r) the condition of the financial markets, including volatility and weakness in the equity, capital and credit markets, which could limit the availability and terms of debt and equity financing sources to fund the requirements of the Company’s businesses, or which could negatively impact the Company’s investment portfolio, (s) national and regional economic, financial, business and political conditions, including their effect on the availability and cost of labor, credit, materials and other services, (t) the Company’s ability to control costs, particularly labor and employee benefit costs, (u) increased operating costs due to shortages in qualified nurses, therapists and other healthcare personnel, (v) the Company’s ability to attract and retain key executives and other healthcare personnel, (w) the increase in the costs of defending and insuring against alleged professional liability and other claims and the ability to predict the estimated costs related to such claims, including the impact of differences in actuarial assumptions and estimates compared to eventual outcomes, (x) the Company’s ability to successfully reduce (by divestiture of operations or otherwise) its exposure to professional liability and other claims, (y) the Company’s ability to successfully dispose of unprofitable facilities, (z) events or circumstances which could result in the impairment of an asset or other charges, (aa) changes in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or practices, and changes in tax accounting or tax laws (or authoritative interpretations relating

to any of these matters), and (ab) the Company’s ability to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control. The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by the Company are not guarantees of future performance. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to announce publicly the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided a non-GAAP measurement which presents operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 before certain charges or on a core basis. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measurement to the GAAP operating results is included in this press release.

As noted above, the Company’s earnings release includes a financial measure referred to as operating income, or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent. The Company’s management uses operating income as a meaningful measure of operational performance in addition to other measures. The Company uses operating income to assess the relative performance of its operating divisions as well as the employees that operate these businesses. In addition, the Company believes this measurement is important because securities analysts and investors use this measurement to compare the Company’s performance to other companies in the healthcare industry. The Company believes that income from continuing operations is the most comparable GAAP measure. Readers of the Company’s financial information should consider income from continuing operations as an important measure of the Company’s financial performance because it provides the most complete measure of its performance. Operating income should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures based upon GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. A reconciliation of operating income to income from continuing operations provided in the Condensed Business Segment Data is included in this press release.

As noted in this earnings release, the Company presents the financial measure of free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses. The Company recognizes that free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses is a non-GAAP measurement and is not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s cash flows in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measurement provides important information to investors related to the amount of discretionary cash flows that are available for other investing and other financing activities. In addition, management uses free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses in making decisions related to acquisitions, development capital expenditures, long-term debt repayments and other uses.

Routine capital expenditures represent expenditures necessary to maintain existing facilities that generally do not increase capacity or add services. As disclosed in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company also expends discretionary capital for the development of new facilities or the expansion of services at existing facilities. Due to the discretionary nature of these capital expenditures, they are excluded from the computation of free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses.

The Company recognizes that free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses is a non-GAAP measurement and is not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s cash flows in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measurement provides important information to investors related to the amount of discretionary cash flows that are available for other investing and other financing activities. In addition, management uses free cash flows available for investment and other capital uses in making decisions related to acquisitions, development capital expenditures, long-term debt repayments and other uses.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share amounts and statistics)

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided a non-GAAP measurement which presents operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 before certain charges or on a core basis. The charges that were excluded from core operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 relate to transaction and financing costs. The charges that were excluded from core operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 relate to transaction, severance and retirement costs.

This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the presentation of core operating results provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison between periods by excluding certain charges for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 that the Company believes are not representative of its ongoing operations due to the materiality and nature of the charges. The Company’s core operating results also represent a key performance measure for the purposes of evaluating performance internally.
