Advocat Announces 2012 Fourth Quarter and Year End Results
Portfolio Expansion Activity Accelerates

BRENTWOOD, TN, (March 7, 2013) – Advocat Inc. (NASDAQ: AVCA) a premier provider of long term care services primarily in the Southeast and Southwest, today announced its results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012. The Company reported a loss of $0.9 million or $0.16 per diluted common share excluding separation costs and start-up losses, compared to a loss of $0.7 million or $0.13 per diluted share in the year-ago period on the same basis. On February 28, 2013, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of 5.5 cents per common share. The dividend will be paid April 12, 2013, to shareholders of record on March 31, 2013.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Highlights

Adjusted EBITDA declined to $0.9 million compared to $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, primarily due to a $2.5 million addition to professional liability expenses during the fourth quarter of 2012 related to open and settled cases from current and prior periods. Adjusted EBITDA excludes losses from the startup of recently opened skilled nursing centers and separation expenses in both 2012 and 2011 and non-recurring Electronic Medical Record implementation costs in 2011.

Operating income improved to a loss of $0.9 million compared to an operating loss of $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Operating income in the fourth quarter of 2012 includes the additional professional liability expenses recorded during the quarter.
Medicaid rates have continued to increase as we saw a 0.5% increase from the third quarter of 2012 and a 2.3% increase compared to last year's fourth quarter. We have experienced increased patient acuity levels and benefited from rate increases in certain states.
Managed Care census increased 20.3% compared to the fourth quarter 2011.
As previously reported, during the first quarter of 2013, the Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire five skilled nursing facilities in Kansas. We anticipate closing this transaction early in the second quarter of 2013.
CEO Remarks

Commenting on the results, Kelly Gill, Advocat's CEO, stated, “The fourth quarter of 2012 represents the first operating quarter with an apples-to-apples comparison related to our Medicare rates following the implementation of the CMS Final Rule in October of 2011. While our Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter was negatively impacted by professional liability expense, revenue increased and our operating expenses declined as a percentage of revenue. Additionally, these results represent our ability to adapt to reimbursement challenges by streamlining our corporate costs, as evidenced by an absolute reduction in general and administrative expenses. I am very pleased with our operational improvements throughout 2012 and believe they position the Company well to generate additional growth in 2013.

“To that end, I am also pleased to have announced earlier this week our definitive agreement to acquire five facilities in Kansas,” Mr. Gill continued. “This transaction will represent our largest since embarking on a portfolio-expansion strategy in 2011 and





represents more than a 50% increase in our owned facilities. I believe our ability not only to integrate newly-acquired facilities successfully, but also to do so with limited incremental corporate costs, has been proven through our acquisition activity in 2012. We anticipate closing this transaction early in the second quarter of 2013 and that these new facilities will be accretive to our earnings this year. It is also important to note that this transaction entails our taking full ownership of these facilities, demonstrating our flexibility as relates to acquisition structures as we continue to focus our efforts on growing our portfolio.”

Mr. Gill concluded, “As we look forward into 2013, we will continue to seek opportunities both to deepen and to expand our operating footprint through the addition of new facilities, while at the same time generating organic growth through improvements in clinical capabilities and reinvestment in our centers.”

Skilled nursing occupancy excludes our recently opened and leased West Virginia and Kentucky nursing centers. Two of the newly opened nursing centers are licensed to operate and are in the process of growing their occupancy as a percentage of licensed beds. The Kentucky center we leased effective September 24, 2012 is also excluded from skilled nursing occupancy.
Patient Revenues
Patient revenues were $79.1 million in 2012 and $76.4 million in 2011. The increase is primarily a result of new facilities added in 2012 – one in West Virginia and two in Kentucky. These facilities contributed $4.3 million of revenue in the quarter. The West Virginia facility has completed the Medicaid and Medicare certification process and is growing census. The 154 bed leased facility in Louisville, Kentucky, was fully operational at the time the lease commenced.

The average Medicaid rate per patient day for 2012 increased 2.3% compared to 2011, resulting in an increase in revenue of $0.9 million. This average rate per day for Medicaid patients is the result of rate increases in certain states and increasing patient acuity levels. The average Medicare rate per patient day for 2012 increased 2.2% compared to 2011, resulting in a net increase in revenue of $0.5 million.
Expenses
We have experienced a significant amount of non-recurring start-up losses during 2012 at our two newly opened centers. We expect both of these centers to be accretive to run rate earnings in 2013. Our newly opened West Virginia nursing center contributed $1.1 million in start-up and additional operating expenses over the $0.2 million we experienced in 2011. Our newly leased Kentucky nursing center in the reopening phase contributed $0.5 million in additional operating costs. The recently leased 154-bed skilled nursing center in Louisville, Kentucky, contributed $1.9 million in additional operating costs.





Operating expense increased slightly to $61.7 million in 2012 from $60.4 million in 2011. While total operating expense increased by $1.3 million, the three recently added nursing centers contributed $3.3 million of costs in 2012 not present in 2011. Operating expense decreased to 77.9% of revenue in 2012, compared to 79.0% of revenue in 2011 due significantly to operational efficiency improvements at the Company’s facilities.
The largest component of operating expenses is wages, which with the addition of the new centers described above, increased to $39.0 million in 2012 from $38.1 million in 2011, an increase of $0.9 million, or 2.4%. We continued to see improvements in our labor costs as we adjust to lower Medicare rates and lower Medicare average daily census.
Employee health insurance costs were approximately $0.2 million lower in 2012 compared to 2011. The Company is self-insured for the first $175,000 in claims per employee each year. Employee health insurance costs can vary significantly from year to year, and we continually evaluate the provisions of these plans.
Bad debt expense increased approximately $0.6 million in 2012 compared to 2011, driven significantly by the growth in Medicaid patients undergoing the initial qualification process. Provider taxes increased $0.7 million primarily as a result of Alabama’s provider tax increase.
Professional liability expense was $4.9 million in 2012 compared to $3.4 million in 2011, an increase of $1.5 million. During the fourth quarter of 2012, we recorded as part of professional liability expense $2.5 million related to adjustments for open and settled cases from current and prior periods. Our cash expenditures for professional liability costs of continuing operations were $3.0 million and $1.2 million for 2012 and 2011, respectively. Professional liability expense and cash expenditures fluctuate from year to year based, respectively, on the results of our third-party professional liability actuarial studies and on the costs incurred in defending and settling existing claims.
General and administrative expenses were approximately $5.5 million in 2012 compared to $6.2 million in 2011, an improvement of $0.7 million. We experienced a $0.2 million decrease in implementation costs of Electronic Medical Records, a $0.2 million decrease in bonus and stock based compensation costs, travel costs were $0.1 million lower, and we saw a decrease in legal costs of $0.2 million in 2012.
Facility Renovations
As of December 31, 2012, the Company has completed renovations at seventeen facilities. We are developing plans for additional renovation projects. A total of $25.8 million has been spent on the renovation program to date, with $19.1 million financed through Omega Healthcare Investors Inc., $6.0 million financed with internally generated cash, and $0.7 million financed with long-term debt.

We have included certain financial measures in this press release, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders and Funds Provided by Operations which are “non-GAAP financial measures” using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and using adjustments to GAAP (non-GAAP). These non-GAAP measures are not measurements under GAAP. These measurements should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for loss (income) from discontinued operations, net interest expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for separation and related costs and negative EBITDA of start-up facilities and business ventures. We define Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders as Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders adjusted for separation and related costs and start-up losses associated with our new facilities and business ventures. Funds Provided by Operations is defined as net income from operating activities adjusted for the cash effect of professional liability and other non-cash charges. Management believes that Funds Provided by Operations is an important performance measurement because it eliminates the effect of actuarial assumptions on our professional liability reserves, includes the cash effect of professional liability payments, and does not include the effects of deferred tax benefit and other non-cash charges.
Our measurements of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders and Funds Provided by Operations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We have included information concerning EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders and Funds Provided by Operations in this press release because we believe that such information is used by certain investors as measures of a company’s historical performance. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders are important performance measurements because they eliminate certain nonrecurring start-up losses and separation costs. Management believes that Funds Provided by Operations is an important performance measurement because it eliminates the effect of actuarial assumptions on our professional liability reserves, includes the cash effect of professional liability payments, and does not include the effects of deferred taxes and other non-cash items. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net income (loss) for Advocat Inc. common shareholders and Funds Provided by Operations should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
