Current report

The increase in Other, net is primarily attributable to accruals related to an abandoned or unclaimed property voluntary disclosure agreement program which is related to the pre-merger operations of BioScrip, Inc. (“BioScrip”), which was entered into by BioScrip prior to its merger with the Company in 2019. As of March 31, 2025, the matters related to this program are ongoing.

Current report

The change in cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024, was primarily due to the changes in accounts receivable as a result of the Change Healthcare Cybersecurity Incident that occurred in the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was impacted by the timing of payments related to certain strategic prior year-end purchases as well as the impact of annual benefits re-verification on accounts receivable.

Previous report

As previously disclosed, Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, experienced an incident on February 21, 2024, in which a cybersecurity threat actor gained access to some of its information technology systems (“Change Healthcare Cybersecurity Incident”). Since the time of the system disruption, Option Care Health has worked continuously to find alternative processes to help maintain patient care and overall operations.

Previous report

As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not identified any compromise or unauthorized access of its systems or networks due to this third party incident. As of the end of the second quarter of 2024, the Company reconnected to key applications maintained by Change Healthcare and as of the end of the third quarter of 2024, the Company has substantially recovered operationally. The Company continues to work through accumulated patient payment obligations and to establish full recovery from the Change Healthcare Cybersecurity Incident.

Previous report

During the third quarter of 2024, the Company did not experience a material financial impact from the Change Healthcare Cybersecurity Incident on the financial results as reported. The Company continues to maintain strong liquidity and, having resumed submission of a majority of claims to payers, has determined that the Change Healthcare Cybersecurity Incident is not reasonably likely to materially impact the Company, including its business operations, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by organic growth in the Company’s portfolio of therapies, consisting of acute revenue that had single-digit growth relative to the prior year while chronic revenue grew in the low-twenties. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and therapy mix, as well as the comparable impact of certain temporary favorable therapy procurement dynamics in the prior year. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to the launch of certain new higher cost therapies included within chronic growth (including rare and orphan therapies) and to the same comparable impact of certain temporary favorable procurement dynamics in the prior year that did not continue into 2024. Future revenue and gross profit may be impacted by the supply chain disruption in the availability of certain IV fluids in the near term. Additionally, management anticipates that 2025 gross profit will be negatively impacted due to a manufacturer’s proposed significant reduction in the spread at which the Company procures a key therapy relative to drug reference prices beginning in early 2025.

Previous report

The increase in interest expense, net during the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in the Company’s First Lien Term Loan principal balance, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 9, Indebtedness, of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Previous report

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Previous report

The decrease in interest expense, net during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to additional interest income generated from our cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by an increase in the Company’s First Lien Term Loan principal balance, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 9, Indebtedness, of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Previous report

The decrease in Other, net during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was due to the $106.0 million payment received on behalf of Amedisys, under the terms of the Mutual Termination Agreement, net of merger-related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. There was no comparable activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report

The change in net income was attributable to the factors described in the above sections in addition to the $106.0 million payment received on behalf of Amedisys, under the terms of the Mutual Termination Agreement, net of merger-related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. There was no comparable activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report

In May 2024, the Company entered into the Third Amendment on the First Lien Term Loan. The Third Amendment, among other things, (i) provides for an additional $50.0 million of incremental First Lien Term Loan indebtedness and (ii) reduces the interest rate on the First Lien Term Loan from Term SOFR (including a credit spread adjustment) plus 2.75% to Term SOFR plus 2.25% and removes the credit spread adjustment with respect to such First Lien Term Loan.

Previous report

The decrease in cash provided in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily due to the $106.0 million payment received on behalf of Amedisys, under the terms of the Mutual Termination Agreement, and changes in accounts receivable, accrued compensation and employee benefits, and changes in prepaid expenses, offset by changes in accounts payable.

Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payers may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded.

Current wording

The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by organic growth in the Company’s portfolio of therapies, consisting of acute revenue that grew in the mid-teens relative to the prior year while chronic revenue grew in the high-teens. Acute growth was largely driven by the impact of shifts in the competitive landscape, which increased the volume of patient service. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and therapy mix. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to certain higher cost therapies included within chronic growth (including rare and orphan therapies). Additionally, the company executed on several initiatives to temporarily mitigate the impact of the previously disclosed reduction in procurement spread in the first quarter. The Company expects the full negative impact to gross profit to materialize in the second quarter through the remainder of the year.

Previous wording

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in salaries, benefits, and equity compensation; however, these expenses have declined as a percentage of revenue to 12.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 14.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to the Company’s focus on leveraging existing infrastructure to control spending.

Current wording

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in salaries, benefits, and general costs to support the business; however, these expenses have declined as a percentage of revenue to 12.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 13.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, due to the Company’s focus on leveraging existing infrastructure to control spending.

The variance in the Company’s effective tax rate of 26.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the federal statutory rate of 21%, was primarily attributable to the difference between federal and state tax rates, various non-deductible expenses, and a change in state valuation allowance.
