Nobilis Health Corp. Announces Second Quarter Results; Provides Guidance

HOUSTON, TX--(Aug 14, 2015) - Nobilis Health Corp. (NYSE MKT: HLTH) (TSX: NHC) ("Nobilis" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. All dollar amounts are in United States currency unless otherwise stated; percentage calculations are based on the numbers in the financial statements and may not correspond to rounded figures presented in this release.

Chris Lloyd, Nobilis Health's CEO, said, "We are excited to announce that the Company's second quarter recorded total revenues were $48.9 million with an Adjusted EBITDA¹ (net of NCI) of $7.1 million. This represents a significant improvement over the corresponding period in 2014, during which the Company's total revenues were $15.1 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $0.9 million.

While the Company historically realizes between 18.0 and 19.0% of its total annual revenue in the second quarter, our second quarter revenue of $48.9 million represents 24.0% of our original 2015 revenue guidance of $205.0 million, exceeding this historical trend. Year-to-date, our total revenues of $86.0 million represent 42.0% of our 2015 guidance and indicate strong progress toward our original guidance as, historically, the Company earns upwards of 60.0% of our revenues in the second half of the year.

Our performance highlights our unique ability to market direct to the consumer through our proprietary platform and our strong strategic physician-partnerships, which will enable us to sustain exemplary growth throughout 2015."

Our original financial guidance for fiscal year 2015 was $205 million total revenue and $41 million Adjusted EBITDA¹.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ will increase to $42 million for the year. Note that the Adjusted EBITDA¹ figure did not increase in lockstep with revenues due to the associated costs of ramping volume at our two newest hospitals, both of which were acquired this year.

¹Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation, and acquisition expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles. Items excluded from adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is an analytical indicator used by management and the health care industry to evaluate company performance, allocate resources and measure leverage and debt service capacity. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows generated by operations, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance or liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Net income attributable to Nobilis Health Inc. common shareholders is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that is most comparable to Adjusted EBITDA as defined.
