Enhabit, Inc. reported a decline in net service revenue for the third quarter of 2024, generating $253.6 million, down from $258.3 million in the same period of 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net service revenue totaled $776.6 million, a decrease from $785.7 million year-over-year. The decline was primarily attributed to lower Medicare recertifications in the home health segment, although the hospice segment experienced growth, with revenue increasing to $52.6 million from $47.4 million in the third quarter of 2023.
The company faced significant financial challenges, reporting an operating loss of $(98.0) million for the third quarter, compared to an operating income of $7.8 million in the prior year. The net loss for the quarter was $(109.5) million, a stark increase from $(2.2) million in the same period of 2023. For the nine months, the net loss was $(108.2) million, compared to $(73.1) million in 2023. The substantial losses were largely driven by a goodwill impairment charge of $107.9 million, reflecting a decrease in the carrying value of the home health reporting unit.
As of September 30, 2024, Enhabit reported total assets of $1.304 billion, down from $1.434 billion at the end of 2023. Cash and cash equivalents increased to $45.7 million from $27.4 million, while total liabilities rose slightly to $1.1 million from $0.6 million. Long-term debt decreased to $502.9 million from $530.1 million, with advances under the revolving credit facility also reduced.
Strategically, Enhabit is navigating challenges in its home health segment, which saw a decrease in Medicare revenue, while non-Medicare revenue increased significantly. The company is focusing on expanding its hospice services, which have shown resilience and growth. Additionally, Enhabit is adapting to market conditions, including the termination of a national contract with UnitedHealth Group, effective January 31, 2025, and the impact of recent hurricanes on operations in several states, which is estimated to result in a loss of approximately $2 million in net service revenue.
The company continues to prioritize recruiting and retaining qualified personnel amid a challenging staffing environment and is implementing strategies to enhance operational efficiencies and expand its market presence.
