MANAGEMENT'S COMMENTS

Chris Reading, Chief Executive Officer, said, "The past few years have been particularly challenging for our industry due in large part to the intersection and impact of Medicare reimbursement reductions done in sequence, and the rising cost of people and goods, impacted by inflation and exacerbated by a tight labor market. Despite those headwinds, our entire team has worked to find a way to grow in volume, rate, and ultimately in profit, although those results are certainly muted due to the cumulative Medicare reductions, which have been significant. As we near what we expect to be the end of these rate headwinds, we have found additional capabilities in terms of visit growth, new market expansions, positive commercial rate renegotiations and other initiatives we believe will deliver additional capacity and profitability in the future. We continue to work on the cost side of our business, which is largely people driven and, being a people-centric company, this has proven to be our greatest challenge and one where we are not (yet) satisfied with our result. To that end, we are piloting several initiatives which we believe could be impactful to our overall cost and labor efficiency while we continue more traditional efforts as well. We expect 2025 to be a solid growth year supported by these initiatives, a continued record demand for our services, further expected rate lift, and recent acquisitions in both physical therapy and our injury prevention business."

Net revenue from physical therapy operations increased $19.2 million, or 14.2%, to $153.8 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter from $134.6 million for the 2023 Fourth Quarter. This increase was due to the increase in visits from the 58 net new clinics added since the comparable prior year period, a 3.1% increase in visits at mature clinics and an increase in net rate per patient visit. The increase in net rate per patient visit was mainly driven by higher reimbursement rates from commercial and other payors as a result of contract negotiations.

Operating costs from physical therapy operations increased $17.8 million, or 16.5%, to $126.2 million in the 2024 Fourth from $108.4 million in the 2023 Fourth Quarter primarily driven by the 58 net new clinics added since the comparable prior year period.

Revenues from physical therapy operations increased $47.9 million, or 9.1%, to $574.4 million in the 2024 Year compared to $526.5 million in the 2023 Year.

For additional information on 2024 Year results, please refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K which is expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2025.

BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW

Total cash and cash equivalents were $41.4 million as of December 31, 2024, compared to $152.8 million at December 31, 2023, with the decrease primarily related to cash used for acquisitions during the 2024 Year. Additionally, the Company had $151.6 million of outstanding borrowings and $164.0 million in available credit under its credit facilities as of December 31, 2024, compared to $144.4 million of outstanding borrowings and $175.0 million in available credit under its credit facilities as of December 31, 2023.

RECENT ACQUISITIONS

On October 31, 2024, the Company acquired a 50% equity interest in a management services organization that provides management and administrative services to 50 physical therapy clinics with the owners retaining a 50% equity interest. Through its managed therapy providers, the acquired company currently generates approximately $64.0 million in annual revenue and approximately $12.0 million in annual EBITDA on a consolidated basis.

On November 30, 2024, the Company acquired a 75% equity interest in an eight-clinic practice with the practice owners retaining a 25% equity interest. The business currently generates $6.5 million in annual revenues and 43,000 annual visits.

The Company's strategy is to continue acquiring multi-clinic outpatient physical therapy practices, to develop outpatient physical therapy clinics as satellites in existing partnerships and to continue acquiring companies that provide industrial injury prevention services.

QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

The Company's Board of Directors increased the Company's quarterly dividend on February 25, 2025, from $0.44 per share to $0.45 per share. The Board of Directors subsequently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.45 per share payable on April 11, 2025, to shareholders of record on March 14, 2025.

2025 EARNINGS GUIDANCE

Management expects the Company's Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 to be in the range of $88 million to $93 million. As in previous years, we expect the first quarter to be the lowest quarter for EBITDA, approximately 20% of full year EBITDA, due to normal seasonal factors. The previously announced Medicare rate reduction of approximately 2.9% effective January 1, 2025, is expected to reduce the Company's revenue by approximately $6.5 million for the full year 2025 as compared to 2024, which equates to an EBITDA reduction of approximately $5.7 million, net of non-controlling interests. Management expects to more than offset the decreases in revenue and EBITDA related to the Medicare rate reduction and other factors from:

• the full-year contribution from acquisitions completed in 2024
• the full-year impact of rate negotiations in commercial and other payor categories completed during 2024
• the partial-year impact of rate negotiations in commercial and other payor categories expected to be completed during 2025
• volume increases at the Company's existing clinics, and
• continued double-digit growth in the Company's industrial injury prevention business.

The annual guidance figures will not be updated unless there is a material development that causes management to believe that Adjusted EBITDA will be significantly outside the given range.

ADJUSTED EBITDA AND OPERATING RESULTS

The following tables provide details of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results and other non-GAAP measures. Management believes providing Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results, and other non-GAAP measures to investors is useful information for comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have different equity structures. Additionally, Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, analysts, and other stakeholders in assessing the Company's operational performance and financial trends. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results and other non-GAAP measures, which eliminate certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as the principal measures to evaluate and monitor financial performance period over period.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, payments received from the federal government under the Corona virus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("Relief Funds"), changes in revaluation of put-right liability, equity-based awards compensation expense, clinic closure costs, non-cash impairment charges, business acquisition related costs and other income and related portions for non-controlling interests.

Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH shareholders less, changes in revaluation of a put-right liability, Relief Funds, clinic closure costs, changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, business acquisition related costs, non-cash impairment charges and any allocations to non-controlling interests, all net of taxes. Operating Results per share also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact.

Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results and other non-GAAP measures presented are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results and other non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.
