EMERITUS ANNOUNCES OPERATING RESULTS FOR
THIRD QUARTER 2011


SEATTLE, WA, November 3, 2011 - Emeritus Corporation (NYSE: ESC), a national provider of senior living services, today announced its third quarter 2011 results.  
 
Operating Summary for Third Quarter 2011 Compared to Third Quarter 2010
 
·  
Total revenues increased $73.3 million, or 29.3%, to $323.2 million
·  
Adjusted EBITDAR increased $20.5 million, or 29.4%, to $90.4 million
·  
CFFO, as adjusted, increased $4.2 million, or 34.6%, to $16.4 million
·  
Same community average monthly revenue per occupied unit improved by 0.6% to $3,833
·  
Same community average occupancy increased 20 basis points to 87.9%
·  
Same community operating margin for Q3 2011 was 34.3% compared to 34.4%

Granger Cobb, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “Our results for the third quarter reflect steady demand as we posted a 50 basis point sequential quarter improvement in same community occupancy and a 20 basis point improvement from the third quarter of last year.  As we move forward we will strive to achieve the optimal balance between rate and occupancy growth while maintaining our commitment to aligning operating cost increases with rate growth.”


2011 Third Quarter Consolidated Results

Total revenue in the third quarter of 2011 increased 29.3% to $323.2 million.  The $73.3 million revenue increase consisted primarily of $1.7 million in the Company’s same community portfolio of 266 communities operated during both periods, $70.7 million from the acquisition of communities (net of dispositions), and $1.1 million in management fees primarily from the August 2010 acquisition of communities through a joint venture structure.

Total average monthly revenue per occupied unit for the consolidated portfolio increased 6.2% to $4,065 in the third quarter of 2011 from $3,827 in the third quarter of 2010.  This increase in rate was primarily due to the consolidated communities added in the fourth quarter of 2010 that had higher average rates.

In the third quarter of 2011, total average occupancy for the consolidated portfolio was 86.5% compared to 87.1% in the third quarter of 2010, primarily from the acquisition of communities with lower occupancy rates.

Community operating expenses increased $59.1 million to $223.4 million in the third quarter of 2011.  Approximately $48.9 million of the increase resulted from the acquisition of communities (net of dispositions), $1.2 million from same community operating expenses, and the remaining increase primarily from an adjustment to professional liability self-insurance reserves of approximately $8.5 million.

Community operating income increased $13.1 million, or 16.1%, to $94.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to $81.7 million in the third quarter of 2010.

Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses as a percent of total operated community revenue, which includes revenues of managed communities, decreased to 4.6% in the third quarter of 2011 from 5.2% in the prior year quarter.  General and administrative expenses increased $3.2 million to $21.7 million in the third quarter of 2011, with the increase resulting primarily from additional staffing to support the communities added to the Company’s operated portfolio since the third quarter of 2010, as well as an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expenses.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and rents (“Adjusted EBITDAR”) increased $20.5 million, or 29.4%, to $90.4 million, with the increase primarily driven by the $13.1 million improvement in community operating income.  For the same period, adjusted cash from facility operations increased $4.2 million, or 34.6%, to $16.4 million.


2011 Third Quarter Same Community Results

As of September 30, 2011, the consolidated Emeritus portfolio consisted of 333 communities, of which 266 communities are included in our definition of same communities.  Total same community revenue increased $1.7 million to $235.6 million in the third quarter of 2011, with $1.4 million coming from rate increases and the balance from occupancy improvements.    Average monthly revenue per occupied unit increased 0.6% to $3,833 in the third quarter of 2011 from $3,811 in the corresponding period in 2010.  Average occupancy increased 20 basis points to 87.9% in the third quarter of 2011 from 87.7% in the comparative period last year.

The Company’s same community operating expenses increased $1.2 million to $154.7 million in the third quarter of 2011.  Operating expenses reflected a $0.6 million, or 0.9%, increase in salary and wages as well as increases in food, repairs and maintenance, and utilities, offset by reductions in property taxes and bad debts.  On a per resident day basis, same community salaries and wages increased by 0.2%.

Same community operating income (community revenues less community operating expenses) increased $0.5 million to $80.8 million with a 34.3% operating margin in the third quarter of 2011.


Significant Third Quarter 2011 Transactions

Acquisitions, Dispositions and Financings

In July 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of two communities consisting of 135 assisted living units located in Texas for a total purchase price of $19.7 million.  These acquisitions were financed with mortgage debt of approximately $14.7 million and cash of $5.0 million.  The 10-year mortgage debt is due in August 2021 and bears interest at an annual fixed rate of 6.02%.

In July 2011, the Company purchased a 101-unit assisted living, independent living, and memory care community located in Vermont for $20.9 million.  The purchase was financed with mortgage debt of $15.8 million and cash of $5.1 million.  The 10-year mortgage debt is due in August 2021 and bears interest at an annual fixed rate of 6.06%.

In August 2011, the Company sold a 170-unit assisted living community located in Texas for $5.8 million.  The proceeds were used primarily to pay off the related mortgage debt.

Debt Refinancings

In September 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement to borrow up to $29.6 million, secured by four communities.  At closing, the Company received $25.0 million in loan proceeds, of which $22.0 million was used to repay existing debt.  The remaining $4.6 million available under the loan agreement is available to expand and update the communities.  The loans bear interest at a rate equal to the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.75%, with a LIBOR floor of 2.0% (5.75% at closing) with a maturity date of October 2014.

In August 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement to borrow $28.8 million, secured by three communities.  The loan proceeds were used to repay existing debt of $24.4 million on these communities.  The new loans are due in September 2021 and bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.29%.

Impairment Charges

During the third quarter of 2010, five communities were designated as held for sale and the property and equipment of these communities are classified as property held for sale on our balance sheet as of September 30, 2011.  A non-cash impairment charge related to these communities in the aggregate amount of $17.5 million was recorded in the current quarter and was included in discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Subsequent Events

In October 2011, we entered into a loan agreement with KeyBank in the amount of $112.0 million to refinance the existing mortgage debt on 16 of our communities.  The loan agreement has a three-year term and interest accrues at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus a margin, which ranges from 4.75% to 6.75%, depending upon the loan-to-value ratio of the communities each month.  We are required to make monthly principal payments of $500,000 beginning December 1, 2011, decreasing to $250,000 per month beginning December 1, 2012.  Additionally, we are required to reduce the overall principal balance to specified levels during the term of the loan agreement.


2011 Guidance Update

The Company provides annual guidance in certain key categories.  The guidance pertains to the Company’s existing portfolio and excludes future acquisitions.

The Company has updated its guidance for 2011 as follows:
·  
Consolidated revenue in the range of $1.23 billion to $1.28 billion.
·  
Routine capital expenditures in the range of $18.0 million to $19.0 million, which equates to about $600 to $650 per consolidated unit.
·  
General and administrative expenses as a percent of total operated revenue to be approximately 4.8%, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAR and Cash From Facility Operations (CFFO) are financial measures of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful in identifying trends in our day-to-day performance because they exclude items that are of little or no significance to operations and provide indicators to management of progress in achieving optimal operating performance.  In addition, these measures are used by many research analysts and investors to evaluate the performance and the value of companies in our industry.  We strongly urge you to review the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAR, and the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to CFFO, provided below, along with our consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and cash flows.  We define Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAR and CFFO and provide other information about these non-GAAP measures in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
