National Mentor Holdings, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2013 ResultsBOSTON --(Business Wire)-- National Mentor Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2012. First Quarter Results Revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $294.9 million, an increase of $20.4 million, or 7.5%, over revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. Revenue increased $11.5 million from organic growth, including growth related to new programs, and $8.9 million from acquisitions that closed during and after the three months ended December 31, 2011. Income from operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $7.7 million, a decrease of $4.8 million, as compared to income from operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The operating margin was 2.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, a decrease from an operating margin of 4.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, for the reasons discussed below with respect to net loss and adjusted EBITDA. Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $8.4 million compared to net loss of $5.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, despite the increase in revenue noted above. The increase in net loss is due to the reasons discussed below with respect to adjusted EBITDA, as well as an adjustment to our tail reserve for professional and general liability claims which is required by accounting standards for companies that have claims-made insurance. Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $26.6 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 4.2%, as compared to adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by an increase in direct labor costs as the Company added staff to support new programs started within the last 18 months, an increase in reserves for health claims, and an increase in occupancy expense due to the new program starts. The reported results are available on the Company's investor relations web site at www.tmnfinancials.com. The user name "mentor" and the password "results" are required in order to access this site.

The forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions made by management of the Company and are believed to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. The forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from any such forward-looking statements, including the risks and uncertainties disclosed under the captions "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This press release includes presentations of adjusted EBITDA because it is the primary measure used by management to assess financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest expense and interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain non-operating expenses. Reconciliations of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA are presented within the tables below. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flows from operations, as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. While adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of financial performance and the ability to meet debt service requirements, it is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure used by management, which is net income (loss) before interest expense and interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain non-operating expenses.
(1) Represents operating losses from new programs started in the last 18 months.
(1) Represents an adjustment to our tail reserve for professional and
general liability claims which is required by ASC (News - Alert) 450 for companies that
have claims-made insurance.
(1) Calculated as current assets minus current liabilities.
