Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us this morning for the AdaptHealth fourth quarter earnings call. At this time, I would like to introduce Mr. Chris Joyce, General Counsel. Thank you, operator. I'd like to welcome everyone to today's AdaptHealth Corp. conference call for the full year ended December 31, 2022. Everyone should have received a copy of our earnings release yesterday evening. If not, I'd like to highlight that the earnings release, as well as supplemental slide presentation regarding full year 2022 results, is posted on the investor relations section of our website. In a moment, we'll have some prepared comments from Steve Griggs, Chief Executive Officer of AdaptHealth, Josh Parnes, President of AdaptHealth, and Jason Clemens, Chief Financial Officer of AdaptHealth. We will then open the call for questions. Before we begin, I'd like to remind everyone that statements included in this conference call and in our press release may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. These statements include, but are not limited to, comments regarding our financial results for 2022 and beyond. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements because of a number of risk factors and uncertainties, which are discussed at length in our annual and quarterly SEC filings. AdaptHealth Corp. shall have no obligation to update the information provided on this call to reflect such subsequent events. Additionally, on this morning's call, we'll reference certain financial measures such as EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. This morning's call is being recorded, and a replay of the call will be available later today. I'm now pleased to introduce our Chief Executive Officer, Steve Griggs. Thank you, Chris. Good morning, and thank you for joining our call. AdaptHealth is a full-service nationwide provider of products and services for patients at home and in the community, empowering them to live their healthiest lives. I'd like to express my appreciation to our 10,931 employees operating in 726 locations in 47 states, including more than 1,000 healthcare professionals who work daily to serve AdaptHealth's more than 3.9 million patients. 2022 was a crucial year in the development of AdaptHealth, setting us up for a successful 2023 and staying on track to achieve our longer-term goals. Most important, AdaptHealth continued to grow its revenue and customer base in 2022, even in the face of supply chain and labor cost issues. Driving this growth was our ability to source and deliver CPAP devices to satisfy the demand that has built up as a result of the Philips recall. These efforts, including extra labor and other extraordinary costs, contributed to the decline in our 2022 gross margin. We intentionally incurred those costs as part of our plan to increase market share through the accelerated pace of patient setups. It is important here to note that the vast majority of Adapt's revenue is recurring, particularly in our sleep, respiratory, and supplies lines. Once we set up a new patient on one of our devices, we have a reasonable expectation of significant ongoing revenue, initially through the rental, if applicable, and then with ongoing supplies. One of our key metrics is census, the number of people we serve in each product line. As a result of this acceleration of setups, our census of PAP device patients has hit record levels. These PAP census figures are a key focus for our operators as they convert to recurring resupply orders. Accordingly, our resupply census is also at record levels. AdaptHealth has built a national scale that is unmatched in the industry and invested in infrastructure throughout the organization to support attractive long-term growth opportunities in our immediate markets while we continue to make upgrades into our talent. This work included the complete overhaul and integration of our accounting and finance infrastructure, featuring our enterprise-wide Oracle implementation, which began in February 2022, as we continued our efforts to improve our internal controls over our financial reporting. As a result of these infrastructure improvements throughout our operations and revenue cycle management, we achieved a record of $374 million of cash flow from operations. During 2023, we will continue to make investments to drive improvements. During 2022, we also took the first steps in our journey towards building Adapt 2.0, which Josh will discuss in greater detail. We know that HME suppliers are crucial in the healthcare continuum, especially for post-acute and chronic disease management. Most of our devices are connected and generate actionable data to help manage chronic conditions and reduce downstream cost. Adapt 2.0 reflects our commitment to continue to facilitate that connectivity for the benefit of our patients and payers. In conclusion, I have great confidence we are entering this year from a position of strength. Based on significant progress across a number of important strategic initiatives, we expect to drive increased shareholder value going forward. We believe our updated guidance for 2023 fully considers and addresses any 2022 headwinds expected to continue throughout this year. Our management team remains focused and confident in achieving the 2025 goals we shared at Capital Markets Day in September. Namely, to generate $4 billion in revenue, $1 billion in adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow of $300 million. I would like to turn the call over to our President, Josh Parnes, to provide further details and an update on strategic developments. Thank you, Steve. This past year, AdaptHealth took the first steps towards building Adapt 2.0. Technology and innovative care models are at the center of our team's focus. We are now in the process of enhancing the digital and in-person connection we have with our 3.9 million patients, and testing how best to use this connectivity to drive better outcomes at a lower overall total cost of care. AdaptHealth has been a leader in ePrescribe and the significant administrative savings and efficiencies it provides in our business. ePrescribe and Digital Orders continue to increase as a percentage of our business, and will continue to be a focus which will enable increased order transparency and collectibility of revenue. Beyond ePrescribe, in 2022, AdaptHealth deployed an integrated payer portal to allow a payer's care and claims management teams to seamlessly monitor and coordinate patient services. These integrations have allowed both parties to reduce the administrative expense associated with providing care for more of their patients. This technology is scalable and proprietary, available to deploy on behalf of additional payers. Additionally, AdaptHealth recently launched myAPP, a comprehensive mobile application to facilitate channel of choice communication with patients, as well as provide the ability to place and track orders, and in the future, enable full patient billing access and clinical encounters for our chronic disease management programs. As we continue to roll out myAPP, it will become a powerful resource for patients to access data on their connected medical devices. We are seeing strong adoption by our patients, with over 30,000 downloads from the Apple Android app stores, up from 3,000 in Q3, and more than 17,000 of our diabetes patients registered to access the system, and 3,500 patients ordered products digitally. Our goal is to create an application that allows patients to interact with us on ordering, billing, and clinical disease management, which will allow for a transformative patient experience at a lower overall cost of care. Finally, initial work has begun on disease-specific care models. Our goal is to utilize our pipes into the homes of our almost 4 million patients to demonstrate more cost-effective and patient-centric care models. We believe we can help bridge the gap that exists in understanding real-time data on patients living at home with chronic conditions through connected services and devices. We have confidence that we can help our patients get more proactive care and enable more effective value-based care models over time. I'll turn the call over to our CFO, Jason Clemens. Thanks, Josh. Good morning, and thank you for joining our call. For the full year ended December 31st, 2022, AdaptHealth reported net revenue of $2.971 billion, an increase of 21% from $2.454 billion in 2021. For the fourth quarter ended December 31st, 2022, AdaptHealth reported net revenue of $780.3 million, an increase of 11% from $702.1 million in 2021. Non-acquired net revenue growth was 5.3% for Q4, led by sleep, our largest product category. Patient census is now the highest it has ever been, surpassing our previous record set in Q2 2021, immediately prior to the Respironics recall. Q4 sleep growth is a good indicator of the continuing patient demand for sleep products that we expect will continue in 2023. For the Q4 ended December 31st, 2022, adjusted EBITDA was $146.0 million, which fell below what we expected when we revised guidance downward in January. First, let me remind everyone the reasons for the January reduction. Our CPAP supply chain today is much healthier than it has been. Although we grew sleep rental revenue sequentially from the Q3 to the Q4, we did not grow as fast as we expected. Across the product portfolio, we expected a higher mix of rental versus sales revenue for the quarter. Rental revenue carries gross margins of almost 100% versus 40% for sales revenue, so we adjusted bottom-line guidance accordingly. We detected incremental inflationary pressures, which we also noted as part of our January 10th guidance. As previously discussed, our cost structure increased in response to the challenging supply chain environment. We implemented centralized distribution centers to store additional product to protect against recurring supply interruptions. We also locked in purchasing agreements and special terms to ensure we received the products our patients needed when they needed it. Many of those agreements came with surcharges related to raw materials, shipping expense, and fuel pass-throughs. Others came with cost increases related to new product launches. The cost of these factors were approximately $10 million more in the fourth quarter than we had anticipated in January. We also experienced an increase in payer refund and recoupment activity, which caused a reduction in net revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the quarter of $10 million. Refunds and recoupments are normal course for healthcare providers, the size and timing of this activity was unexpected and very recent. It was not accounted for in our January 10th guidance. We believe that we have appropriately accounted for general refund and recoupment activity in our 2023 guidance. Finally, we experienced $6 million of unanticipated variable labor and other operating expense in December. We believe these impacts are contained to 2022. We have built in an appropriate level of conservatism to account for any surprises in 2023. For the full year, cash flow from operations was $374 million, up $98 million or 36% over 2021. We are very pleased with this improvement, particularly the contribution from our revenue cycle, as day sales outstanding was 42 at the end of 2022, down five days from the end of 2021. During last quarter's earnings call, we highlighted the investments we've continued to make in ePrescribe and in our claims edit engine, and those investments are continuing to perform. I'll point out that our accounts payable transformation initiative is complete. We achieved our days payable outstanding target of 62 days, down from 79 at year-end 2021. We also delivered cash flow from operations improvement despite $35 million of higher interest payments in 2022 over 2021. Overall, our cash generation is in very good shape. Free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, was a use of $18 million for 2022, as CapEx was $391 million for the year. Quite frankly, we don't have a better use of cash than buying enough equipment to satisfy the needs of our patients. On December 31st, 2022, cash on hand was $46.3 million. Per our covenants, net leverage was 3.69 x. At the end of 2022, we maintained zero balance on our $450 million revolver. As a reminder, on December 15th, 2022, our board of directors authorized the extension of our previously announced share repurchase program to allow for open market purchases of our common stock through the end of 2023. We did not complete any repurchases during the quarter, and for the year, we repurchased $14 million. As announced this morning, we are adjusting our overall guidance for 2023 to account for the items discussed earlier. Our 2023 guidance for net revenue is $3.16 billion-$3.24 billion. This represents 7.7% non-acquired growth over 2022. Our guidance for adjusted EBITDA is $650 million-$710 million, representing 14.5% growth over 2022. The midpoint adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.3% is up from 20.0% in 2022. Our guidance for CapEx is 10%-12% of net revenue, reflecting elevated equipment purchasing in the first half of the year and decreasing purchase activity over the second half of the year as we work through the PAP setup backlog. We are in process of installing new cost management initiatives focused on revamping our supply chain infrastructure, rationalizing our real estate footprint, and consolidating various supplier agreements into national contracts to leverage our buying power. In addition to our focus on technology, we've added great people in new roles, particularly in finance and accounting, as we work to harden our newly established control environment. To that point, we hired an impactful leader in October 2022, Christy Archbold, our Senior Vice President of Corporate Accounting. Christy has made considerable contributions since joining AdaptHealth, so effective March fourth, we expect to promote Christy to Chief Accounting Officer and Principal Accounting Officer for the company. With that, I'll turn the call back over to our CEO, Steve Griggs. Thanks, Jason. As I said before, AdaptHealth is entering 2023 from a position of strength based on our national scale, investments in infrastructure, continued improvements in supply chain, and a positive regulatory environment. Adding to the strength and stability of our core business are the continued upside of growth and operating efficiencies expected from our technology investments and the continued rollout of Adapt 2.0. Moving on to 2023, we believe we have addressed the inflationary cost pressures on our business and appropriately reflected them in our revised guidance. I share our management team's confidence that the financial targets we laid out at our September 2022 Capital Markets Day will be achieved. Operator, please open the line for questions. At this time, if you would like to ask a question, please press the star and one on your touch tone phone. You may remove yourself from the queue at any time by pressing star two. Once again, that is star and one to ask a question. We will pause for a moment to allow questions to queue. We'll take our first question from Pito Chickering with Deutsche Bank. Hey, good morning, guys. Thanks for taking my questions. There are a lot of questions here, so I'll let a lot of others ask some of the details. I'll just lead into, why does your 2023 guidance assume lower rental revenue, and therefore potentially lower EBITDA, but your CapEx guidance percent of revenues is going up? I mean, just intellectually, shouldn't increasing CapEx be associated with increased rental revenue and therefore increased EBITDA? Yeah. Thanks, Pito. This is Jason. You know, I'd point you first to our supplement that we posted to our website regarding Q4 results and the product category mix. You know, we are responding to what we're seeing within the product category, specifically rental. You know, we had expected sequential growth within respiratory of several million dollars. In fact, we shrank within respiratory rental. HME and other categories, we had expected some modest sequential growth. Those product lines remained flat. Sleep was, you know, a strong performer, continues to be a strong performer. It was up sequentially by $5 million. Frankly, we expected more. The numbers landed where they did. We, you know, we're in fact responding to the trends, and lowering the rental revenue as you, as you called out, which drops essentially 100% to the bottom line. Regarding CapEx, we are, we're providing what we believe is a conservative expectation on CapEx, at 10%-12% of revenue. That's still higher than our historical norms of, you know, we would expect 10% of revenue in, more normal circumstances, so kind of normal supply chain and no, PAP recall environment. Hopefully that adds some color to your, to your question. Okay. Second question is here. Can you talk about organic diabetes growth you had in 2022? What are you assuming for 2023? How much did this shift from DME to pharmacy impact you in 2022, and what are you assuming for 2023? If you look at your sort of goals for 2025 of $4 billion revenue, EBITDA of $1 billion, free cash flow of $300 million, if diabetes is tracking lower in 2023 versus 2022, how does it impact your 2025 targets? Sure. Let me start first with the question on channel mix change. You know, in our diabetes portfolio, you know, we are not seeing a substantial move from the medical benefit to the pharmacy benefit within our book of business. You know, I will say that we are responding to lower diabetes growth in the second half than we anticipated. I'll remind everyone that at the beginning of 2022, we had pegged expectation for our diabetes product line to grow 18%. Around mid-2022, we tempered that expectation to the mid-teens, and in fact, diabetes non-acquired growth landed in the low teens. We are responding to that shift. Volumes and start activity are generally healthy. We are under pressure from payer mix to essentially lower price points depending on the payer. We're accounting for that in our guidance for 2023. Some of the $50 million revenue guide down for 2023 is in response to tempered expectations on diabetes. To your question on 2025, you know, essentially all financial targets, you know, top line, adjusted EBITDA as well as free cash flow. You know, we still believe that we will achieve those targets in the timeline we outlined. You know, I'll remind all that those expectations had very limited acquisition assumptions built in, significantly less than the company has demonstrated historically. As we respond to change, in non-acquired growth, we do have the lever, obviously, of acquired growth. I'd say separately, you know, we also said at Capital Markets Day that we had expected over time for diabetes revenue growth to glide down over the next several years. We said that three to five years out, we thought that diabetes would land at a mid to high single-digit non-acquired growth component of our product portfolio. We, we are seeing the impacts we expected, albeit, faster than we had predicted. Great. Thanks so much. We'll take our next question from Brian Tanquilut with Jefferies. Hi, everyone. Good morning. Thanks for allowing the question. This is Kristen Shuman on behalf of Brian. You know, going into 2023, just kind of curious on how we should be thinking about the Q1 seasonality and sequential EBITDA trends, kind of like we had touched on with the weakness in Q4. Also the quarter to the EBITDA cadence. Thank you. Sure. Good, good question. This is Jason again. You know, I would say firstly that, if we look at the full year revenue guide, we are projecting a 7.7% increase in non-acquired growth over 2022. That is down from what we predicted previously, namely due to the factors in our rental portfolio as well as diabetes that we discussed. I would tell you that Q1 non-acquired growth, we believe will be in the area of 6.5%-7% non-acquired growth, and will step up over the course of the year due to changes we are installing regarding sales, focus, commissions, incentives, related to sparking growth within those rental product lines. That'll take a little time to pull through, but we do expect that to pull through over the course of the year. In terms of margin profile, we're expecting 21.3% of full-year adjusted EBITDA. I would tell you that the shape of EBITDA for Q1 should be similar to what we saw last year for bottom line. Thank you. It's very helpful. We'll take our next question from Joanna Gajuk with Bank of America. Good morning. Thank you. This is Joanna Gajuk here. I guess a couple of questions here. When it comes to your diabetes, you said, obviously things are slowing down. I guess in January, you talk about 11%-13% growth for 2023. Where is it shaping up? What do you assume for the guidance? I guess, you know, how does this impact, if at all, your long-term guidance for diabetes? Hi, Joanna. Sure. This is Jason. I would say firstly that, regarding diabetes, I think you referenced the word slowdown. You know, again, I wouldn't articulate it as a material slowdown in new start activity and volumes. I mean, again, we are responding to changes in payer mix. The kind of the profile of revenue that we are earning in this product category is changing. You know, after all, we've expected it to change over time. You know, again, as we look towards 2025, we had expected diabetes product line growth to land in the mid to higher single digit area for non-acquired growth. You know, we are seeing that faster than anticipated. I would say for 2023, we believe that we will deliver high single digit, up to 10% of non-acquired growth within the diabetes category. Okay. Then same thing, I guess, on sleep. It sounds like things are going better, and I guess does that change any or anything you're seeing there, your prior comments on long-term growth outlook there of 7%-10%? Sure. Within sleep, no change. We're very pleased with the demand that we have within the sleep business. You know, we are very confident that we will deliver the previous expectation for sleep revenue within 2023. I would tell you, in terms of meeting that demand, we are not going as fast as we'd like. You know, we appreciate, I think, the hard work of everyone out in the field in terms of responding to unpredictable receipt of PAPs. I mean, we're getting what we need, the timing of when specifically it comes in and how we're getting that out to locations and patients. That is, we are managing it, but it is still unpredictable. It's all systems go. We are burning the variable pay or overtime pay you'd expect for us to meet each and every patient that needs a PAP. What you're hearing is largely timing in terms of meeting demand, you know, I'm sorry, second half of 2022 into arguably first half of 2023. Overall, a very, very strong patient demand, and we believe that we will deliver the previously guided sleep non-acquired growth for 2023. I guess the actual guide outlook for this year, for 2023 was above that long-term guidance, right? More like 11%-13%. That's correct, Joanna. Okay. You know, another data. Yes, that's correct. Another data point for you is, you know, our PAP rental census, I mean, our previous record for PAP rental patient census was set in the second quarter of 2021. That exactly coincided with the timing of the Respironics recall. You know, since then, it has been an unusual environment, challenging environment to continue to grow that census. However, in Q4 of 2022, we have set a new record of PAP rental census. You know, you'll see it in slide five of our supplement. If you look at PAP rental category, bottomed out in terms of revenue in the first quarter of 2022. We had previously reported the low point of census was February of 2022, and we've continued to grow since then, albeit slower than we had expected based on patient demand, due to the reasons discussed. You know, it is all systems go within the sleep business. Okay. I guess on the cash flow, so clearly CapEx is higher, but how should we think about the operating cash flow for the year? I guess any change to kind of your long-term views that you previously outlined on free cash flow in general that should be running in, you know, 7%-8% of revenues? Good question, Joanna. No change to the 2025 expectations for free cash flow. I would tell you for 2023, my current estimate is between 3% and 4% of revenue will convert to free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. I would point you to the cash flow from operations growth over the full year, 2021. We're very pleased with this growth. We're particularly pleased with the investments that we made within the revenue cycle, people, process, and technology. We've discussed our intake portals and our intake procedures regarding ePrescribe that are continuing to improve. We've discussed our claims edit engines within the revenue cycle that continue to perform and are evolving and maturing every day. That has all resulted in DSOs coming down five days year-over-year. What you're hearing is inflow, cash flow from ops. We are in very good shape. I mean, in normal circumstance, no pandemic, no CARES Act refund and repayments and everything that's happened over the last several years, we would expect cash flow from operations to represent a 2/3 flow through from adjusted EBITDA. If you look at 2022, that is around 62% of adjusted EBITDA. You're seeing the inflows improving. We've discussed the accounts payable transformation efforts and, you know, AP as a use of cash was sizable over the course of 2022. Those efforts are complete. Based on current trends within rev cycle and current use of cash within our working capital, we would expect to deliver about 2/3 of our adjusted EBITDA down to cash flow from operations for 2023. From there, you're left with CapEx. We've discussed our expectations. We've provided a range that we believe is appropriate. For the full year, again, it is escalated versus our expectations of what the business would do in normal circumstances, which would be 10% of revenue. Applying that, the two-thirds conversion of adjusted EBITDA to cash flow from operations less, where we land on capital expenditures, will result in between 3% and 4% of revenue converting free cash flow. Oh, that's super helpful. Thank you so much. Please, last one. You mentioned some efforts of cost cutting in the press release. Do you assume some incremental cost cutting in your guidance? You know, what is it and how much exactly? Thank you. Just curious about, you know, sort of with that 3%-4% of revenue converting into free cash flow, what is that outlook on acquisitions, in 2023 vis-a-vis where your leverage stands today? Thanks so much for all the time, guys. Sure. I'll part of the question. I'm gonna ask Steve and Josh to weigh in on free cash flow expectations and how that relates to to M&A. Regarding the acquisition activity within 2022, I'd remind you it was very, very early in the year, and it was quite immaterial. It was about $17 million, I believe, of acquired revenue in 2022. That was essentially all completed on or before early Q2. So there is extremely limited impact of kind of stub period revenue part of our guidance and our expectations. Steve, you wanna take the acquisition? Sure, Jason. Thanks. Obviously in 2022, we did limited acquisitions, I think just two or three, very minor impact to our business. We would expect that to be higher in 2023. We'll probably use the vast majority of the cash flow generated for those acquisitions. If you use those numbers that Jason put out at 3%, 3.5% of revenue, that type of cash will probably goes towards acquisitions in a rounding error, you know, towards that. I would guess they're gonna be in the neighborhood of just short of $100 million. We'll take our next question from Mathew Blackman with Stifel. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. Thanks for taking my question. Maybe Jason to start, you mentioned in the prepared script that baked into the 2023 guide is some sustained headwinds that you saw in 2022. There are a lot of moving parts. I just wanna make sure I can wrap my arms around it. It sounded like on the headwinds in diabetes and sleep and maybe also to some extent on respiratory and HME. On EBITDA, it sounds like continued inflation and then product mix headwind. Can you fill in the blanks? What am I missing there? Is there anything else to call out? One quick follow-up. Sure, Mat. Good morning. No, I don't, I don't believe you were missing anything. I would say as part of the little over a point of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion that we do expect for 2023 over 2022, we expect about half of that coming from a little over half of that coming from labor and operating expense, and the remainder coming from the actual cost of goods growth. In other words, top line growing 7.7%, we do not believe our COGS, our labor and OpEx will grow at that same pace, and so we expect to get operating leverage and enhanced margin. All right. Appreciate that. diabetes. I'm curious what your thoughts are on why we saw the payer mix shift emerge here in the fourth quarter. just any thoughts and, you know, I assume it's sustained into 2023. just any thoughts on why that is, whether it was transient, it doesn't sound like it, what the trigger may have been for that. Thanks. You know, our reps are out there calling on doctors, and they get their patients. I think, In the businesses that we're working on, particularly at our cross sell that we're doing to GPs, they're more government-based patients. I think just the emphasis in the sales side was just more towards that type of doctor and resulted in that type of patient. We expect that to continue, you know, throughout 2023. We'll see more government payers in our diabetes mix than we've had in the past. I think it's really that. We're calling on more primary care physicians than ever before, and we would expect that to continue. It sounds like this is largely manifesting in the, in the CGM side of the business rather on the pump side. Correct. Okay, thank you. Once again, if you would like to ask a question, please press star and one on your touch tone phone. We'll take our next question from Richard Close with Canaccord Genuity. Hi, thanks for taking the question. This is John Pinney for Richard Close. We've been hearing from some of your supply. I was just kinda wondering, what is the state of your backlog today, and what do you see... Do you still see that being bled down probably by in the first half of 2023? Do you still see yourself, you know, gaining market share through bleeding down faster than competitors? Thanks. Yes, we had stated that our backlog, we should be through it by the end of the first quarter, first part of the second quarter. I think we're on pace for that. We will see that. We do believe based on the amount of new patients that we're getting, that our market share has improved from pre-pandemic or pre-recall levels. We're pretty, you know, confident and well, but we're very confident that those will continue, we're in good shape. It appears that we have no further questions at this time. I will now turn the program back over to our presenters for any additional or closing remarks. We'd just like to thank everybody for attending, and we appreciate the support. We look forward to working hard in 2023 and managing our costs better and continuing to deliver the revenues that we have. Thank you very much, we appreciate everybody. That concludes today's teleconference. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
