By GlobalDataIn Q1 2024, the net operating revenue was $1.31bn.
Encompass also reported an increase of 2% in the net patient revenue per discharge, totalling $20,803 in Q2 2024 versus $20,387m in Q2 2023, while it was around $20,990 in Q1 2024.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) came in at $271.8m in Q2 2024, an increase of 8.9% from $249.6m in Q2 2023.
However, this is slightly less than the adjusted EBITDA of $273.0m reported in Q1 this year.
For the reported quarter, cash flows from operating activities rose by 5.2% to $217.4m, mainly driven by an increase in net income, though this was partially offset by higher cash tax payments.
Encompass Health CEO and president Mark Tarr said: “We are pleased with our second quarter performance as strong discharge growth facilitated an increase of 9.6% in revenue and 8.9% in Adjusted EBITDA.
“During the quarter, we added 194 beds to our capacity and made continued progress across our key operating initiatives. We also resumed activity under our share repurchase authorisation. We remain highly optimistic about the long-term prospects of our business.”
