The acquired business operates in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, and serve approximately 16,000 patients. The Company expects to close this acquisition following completion of regulatory approvals and subject to customary closing conditions and will fund this acquisition through the Company’s existing revolving credit facility and a portion of the net proceeds from the Public Offering.

On May 21, 2024, we entered into the New York Asset Sale.

In connection with this transaction, the Company will cease operations in New York.

Previous wording

In addition to our organic growth, we have grown through acquisitions that have expanded our presence in current markets, with the goal of having all three levels of in-home care in our markets or facilitating our entry into new markets where in-home care has been moving to managed care organizations or that present other strategic opportunities.

Previous wording

As the labor market continues to be tight and unemployment remains at low levels, the competition for new caregivers, including skilled healthcare staff, and support staff continues to be significant. In addition, the United States economy continues to experience significant inflationary pressures and a competitive labor market. To the extent that we continue to experience a shortage of caregivers, it may hinder our ability to fully meet the continuing demand for both our non-clinical and clinical services.

Previous wording

In 2019, New York initiated a new RFO process to competitively procure CDPAP fiscal intermediaries. The Company was not one of the entities selectedto enter into contracts as a Lead Fiscal Intermediary through the initial RFO process. However, the New York legislature intervened in 2022, authorizing fiscal intermediary applicants who satisfied certain criteria to continue operating in all counties contained in their RFO application. Although the Company was permitted to continue its CDPAP fiscal intermediary operations, the Company decided in November 2022 to suspend materially all of its new fee-for-service patient admissions through County Social Service Departments in the CDPAP. On June 6, 2023, the NYSDOH notified the Company that it had received a contract award. Under this contract, the Company is providing services to all current payors and has resumed new fee-for-service patient admissions through County Social Service Departments in the CDPAP. The CDPAP continues to be a focus for changes by New York governmental authorities. For example, the New York fiscal year 2025 budget will replace the CDPAP fiscal intermediaries with a single statewide fiscal intermediary with a stated deadline of April 1, 2025. The statewide fiscal intermediary, which will be selected by the NYSDOH, will be able to subcontract with several entities to facilitate the delivery of fiscal intermediary services. All service providers seeking to offer services under CDPAP will be required to contract with the statewide fiscal intermediary or its contractors in order to offer services. The Company does not currently believe it is likely to be selected as the single statewide fiscal intermediary and it is not possible at this time to assess the likelihood of becoming a subcontractor or the financial terms of any such arrangement. At this time, it is difficult to predict the details of the implementation of these modifications and their final timeline and, thus, their impact on the Company’s business and operations. However, we expect this could have a negative impact on our New York CDPAP business, though it would not be material to our business as a whole.

Current wording

The selection process for CDPAP fiscal intermediaries has changed significantly in recent years, and the program continues to be an area of focus for New York governmental authorities.

As a result of the changes and uncertainty in the state, the Company determined that its New York personal care operations no longer fit its growth strategy and reached an agreement to divest these operations. See Note 4 to the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Acquisition and Divestiture, for additional details regarding our divestiture.

In certain states, payment of claims may be impacted by the Review Choice Demonstration for Home Health Services, a program intended to identify and prevent fraud, reduce the number of Medicare appeals and improve provider compliance with Medicare program requirements. The program currently applies to home health agencies in certain states, including Illinois, Ohio, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Florida and Texas. Providers in states subject to the Review Choice Demonstration may initially select from the following claims review and approval processes: pre-claim review, post-payment review or a minimal post-payment review with a 25% payment reduction. Home health agencies that maintain high compliance levels will be eligible for additional options that may be less burdensome. This program has not had a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

Previous wording

On April 22, 2024, CMS announced a final rule intended to improve access to services and quality of care for Medicaid beneficiaries across fee-for-service and managed care delivery systems. The final rule includes significant provisions related to HCBS, including the “80/20” or “payment adequacy” requirement, which will require states to ensure that at least 80% of all Medicaid payments a provider receives for homemaker, home health aide, and personal care services, less certain excluded costs, under certain programs are spent on total compensation (including benefits) for direct care workers furnishing these services, rather than administrative overhead or profit, subject to limited exceptions. States are required to ensure compliance with the 80/20 requirement by mid-2030. The final rule made a number of technical changes to the definitions used in calculating compliance that clarified or narrowed the revenue covered by the calculation and clarified or expanded the payments to workers that are counted in satisfying the requirement, which combined to make compliance less onerous to providers.

All of our income is from domestic sources. We incur state and local taxes in states in which we operate. The effective income tax rate was 25.7% and 22.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, compared to our federal statutory rate of 21%. The difference between our federal statutory and effective income tax rates was principally due to the inclusion of state taxes, non-deductible compensation, excess tax expense/benefit and the use of federal employment tax credits.

Previous wording

Economic conditions in the United States continue to be challenging in various respects. For example, the United States economy continues to experience significant inflationary pressures, elevated interest rates and challenging labor market conditions. Any resulting economic downturn would pose a risk to states’ revenues, which in turn could affect our reimbursements and collections received for services rendered. Depending on the severity and length of any potential economic downturn as well as the extent of any federal support, states could face significant fiscal challenges and revise their revenue forecasts and adjust their budgets, and sales tax collections and income tax withholdings could be depressed in fiscal year 2023 (which will end June 30, 2024 in most states), and, potentially, future fiscal years. For example, Illinois, New Mexico and New York, our top three personal care markets, previously revised revenue estimates downward for the 2022 fiscal year as the result of earlier negative economic conditions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, in response to reduced revenues, the state of New York authorized the issuance of short-term bonds and implemented uniform reductions to Medicaid payments, applicable to home health and personal care services (hospice services were exempt).

All of our income is from domestic sources. We incur state and local taxes in states in which we operate. The effective income tax rate was 26.0% and 23.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our higher effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was principally due to a lower excess tax benefit as well as a lower benefit from the use of federal employment tax credits.
