National Mentor Holdings, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2012 Results

BOSTON, Massachusetts, February 14, 2012– National Mentor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2011.

Revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $274.4 million, an increase of $10.0 million, or 3.8%, over revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. Revenue increased $5.2 million related to organic growth, including growth related to new programs and $4.8 million related to acquisitions that closed during and after the three months ended December 31, 2010. Modest organic growth was achieved despite the negative impact of rate reductions in some states, including Arizona, Florida and Minnesota.

Income from operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $12.5 million, an increase of $1.3 million as compared to income from operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. The operating margin was 4.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, an increase from 4.2% for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. In addition to the factors noted below with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, the Company’s operating margin was positively impacted as the three months ended December 31, 2010 included costs which the Company did not incur during the three months ended December 31, 2011, namely costs associated with the Company’s cost structure optimization efforts and consulting and legal costs related to a transaction which was not completed.

Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $5.1 million compared to net income of $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. In addition to the factors noted below with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, net loss was negatively impacted by an increase in interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $27.8 million, which was essentially unchanged from the quarter ended December 31, 2010. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by an increase in direct labor costs as the Company increased staffing in advance of growth opportunities and filled vacancies and an increase in occupancy and transportation expense. Adjusted EBITDA was positively impacted by a decrease in health insurance expense as a result of a change in plan design effective January 1, 2011 and a significant reduction in the number of large claims compared to prior period, which partially offset the increase in direct labor costs, occupancy and transportation expense.

From time to time, the Company may make forward-looking statements in its public disclosures. The forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions made by management of the Company and are believed to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. The forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from any such forward-looking statements, including the risks and uncertainties disclosed under the captions “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This press release includes presentations of Adjusted EBITDA because it is the primary measure used by management to assess financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest expense and interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain non-operating expenses. Reconciliations of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA are presented within the tables below. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flows from operations, as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. While Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of financial performance and the ability to meet debt service requirements, it is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation.
