2025 Annual Earnings Highlights
Key Highlights
Strong Revenue and Income Growth Net operating revenues reached $5,935.2M in 2025, increasing 10.5%. Net income attributable to EH grew 24.2% to $566.2M.
Expanded Hospital Footprint Operated 173 inpatient rehabilitation hospitals by year-end 2025, adding 7 new facilities during the year. Discharges grew 6.0% to 263,299.
Favorable Capital Structure Management Redeemed remaining $100.0M of 2025 Senior Notes in September 2025. Maintained $824.0M available under revolving credit facility.
Workforce Investment and Retention Employed over 42,000 individuals; reimbursed over $4.6M for tuition/scholarships in 2025. Nurse turnover slightly decreased to 20.2%.
Risk Factors
Medicare Reimbursement Uncertainty Substantial revenue concentration (82% from Medicare/MA). Regulatory changes like sequestration could reduce payments, impacting profitability.
Staffing Shortages Increase Costs Competition for clinical personnel drives up labor costs, potentially exceeding fixed reimbursement rate increases, adversely affecting margins.
Regulatory Compliance Burden Compliance with complex federal/state laws, including False Claims Act and fraud/abuse rules, requires substantial time, expense, and risk.
Cybersecurity Incident Exposure Dependent on IT systems; vendor compromises, like Change Healthcare, disrupt operations and require significant remediation capital expenditures.
Outlook
Continued Capacity Expansion Plans Pursuing growth via de novo projects and bed additions, planning 49 to 60 new beds across several locations in 2026.
Focus on Operational Initiatives Initiatives target lowering acute-care transfers, improving discharge rates, and leveraging AI to enhance post-acute care efficiency.
Maintain Flexible Capital Structure Seek balance sheet flexibility; continue shareholder distributions via dividends and stock repurchases, funded by strong operating cash flow.
Enhance Clinical Quality Metrics Continue efforts to build stroke market share; 148 hospitals held stroke-specific certifications as of December 31, 2025.
