HEALTHWAYS REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER RESULTS
¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾
Revenues of $180.6 Million Increase 11.3% from Second Quarter Last Year
¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾
Affirms Financial Guidance for 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (July 23, 2014) – Ben R. Leedle, Jr., president and chief executive officer of Healthways (NASDAQ: HWAY), today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014. For the quarter, revenues increased 11.3% to $180.6 million from $162.3 million for the second quarter of 2013. Net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share, compared with a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.03 per share, for the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.01 per diluted share, which excludes non-cash interest expense of $0.03 per diluted share, compared with adjusted net loss of $0.03 per share for the second quarter of 2013. (See pages 9 and 10 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.)
For the first six months of 2014, revenues were $357.4 million, up 9.1% from $327.4 million for the first half of 2013. Net loss for the first six months of 2014 was $10.1 million, or $0.29 per share, compared with a net loss of $5.1 million, or $0.15 per share, for the same period in 2013. Adjusted net loss for the first six months of 2014 was $0.06 per share, which excludes a contract dispute settlement charge of $0.17 per share and non-cash interest expense of $0.06 per share, compared with adjusted net loss of $0.15 per share for the first six months of 2013.
"Our financial results for the second quarter were consistent with our expectations," commented Leedle. "We have now generated four consecutive quarters of sequential-quarter revenue growth. Our revenue growth of 9% for the first half of the year generated better margins, leading to a 16% increase in adjusted EBITDA.
"Our net cash flows from operations for the quarter were $10.2 million, while second-quarter capital expenditures were $10.4 million. Our ratio of total debt to EBITDA, as calculated under our credit agreement, improved to 3.9 at the end of the quarter from 4.2 at the end of the first quarter of 2014."
Broad Market Adoption of Well-Being Improvement
"Our business development momentum continued at a strong pace during the second quarter. Our contract pipeline expanded, reflecting growing market demand for population health services and, in particular, our Well-Being Improvement SolutionTM," Leedle said. "During the quarter, we signed 19 contracts, including three contracts with new customers, three contract expansions and thirteen contract extensions. These contracts were broad-based among our four domestic customer markets: commercial health plans; Medicare Advantage plans; large employers; and health systems, hospitals and physicians.
"One of these second-quarter contracts was a large multi-year renewal of our SilverSneakers® Fitness program with Highmark, Inc., extending our 10-year relationship. In addition, we announced an

expansion of our 13-year relationship with the Hawaii Medical Service Association (HMSA) to make the Dr. Dean Ornish Lifestyle Management program (Ornish Program) available to HMSA's eligible commercial and government health plan members. HMSA continues to be a health plan market leader as evidenced by their decision to expand the eligibility criteria for the Ornish Program beyond coronary artery disease to include diabetes and multiple high-risk health issues.
"We have a substantial and active pipeline of potential contracts with new and existing customers across both our domestic and international markets. Of particular note, our Ornish Program and our acute to post-acute Care Transitions SolutionTM (CTS) are resonating with health plans and health systems. These solutions are seen as driving important value in today's fee-for-service reimbursement, as well as providing important quality and cost management impact for value-based payment arrangements. The Ornish Program and CTS afford a "now and later" value proposition that provides flexibility for our customers to benefit no matter the reimbursement method, mix and rate of change that they are facing in their respective markets. These programs are affording us the opportunity to establish relationships with new customers now and expand the scope of our services over time."

Healthways expects that profit margins will improve in the second half of 2014 compared with the first half of the year, primarily due to continued revenue growth, including recognition of performance-based fees. Healthways also continues to expect operating cash flow for the full year of $75 million to $85 million, total capital expenditures of $40 million to $45 million and improvement in the ratio of total debt to EBITDA, as calculated under its credit agreement.
Summary
Leedle concluded, "Our financial results for the first half of 2014 support our growth expectations for the year. The signing and launch of new business, particularly our Ornish Program, coupled with the recognition of performance-based fees, which are likely to be more weighted to the fourth quarter, will be critical elements to our second-half results. We expect that continued execution in the second half will enable the achievement of our guidance for the full year, and as a result today we have affirmed our financial guidance."

(1) Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company excludes net loss attributable to non-cash interest and legal settlement charges from these measures because of their comparability to the Company's historical operating results. The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results and guidance on the same basis as that used by management. You should not consider adjusted net income (loss) or adjusted net income (loss) per share in isolation or as a substitute for net loss or net loss per share determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
(2) Net loss attributable to non-cash interest charges represents the after-tax impact of the amortization of a debt discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
(3) Net loss attributable to legal settlement charges represents the after-tax impact of the Company's settlement of a contractual dispute in April 2014.
(4) Figures may not add due to rounding.
