Strategic actions and operational updates

  • Announced a pause on several projects, reducing 2026 CapEx by at least $300 million compared to 2025, with further reductions expected in 2027.

  • Added nearly 1,800 beds between 2024 and 2025, with plans for 500-700 more in 2026, focusing on joint ventures with health systems.

  • Closed five facilities due to underperformance or lack of strategic fit, concentrating resources on core business lines and favorable geographies.

  • Ongoing comprehensive facility-by-facility portfolio review, with additional closures possible as part of operational optimization.

  • Real estate value considered in closure decisions, with potential for asset sales to unlock shareholder value.

Financial outlook and growth drivers

  • 2025 volumes have been below expectations, mainly due to weaker Medicaid volumes in the Acute line and local facility underperformance.

  • No update to full-year 2025 guidance; significant EBITDA and free cash flow improvement expected in 2026 and 2027 from ramping volumes, lower startup costs, and aggressive facility optimization.

  • CapEx reduction and focused bed additions in markets with favorable reimbursement expected to accelerate positive free cash flow.

  • Rate growth has moderated to low single digits, with some markets offering mid-single-digit opportunities, especially through joint ventures.

  • Investments in technology and quality infrastructure are expected to support payer negotiations and reimbursement stability.

Market dynamics and industry trends

  • Demand for behavioral health services remains structurally strong, especially for high-acuity patients and in underserved geographies.

  • Increased competition from private equity and new entrants, but differentiation achieved through technology, quality, and staff investments.

  • Labor market has stabilized, with premium pay declining and employee engagement initiatives supporting retention.

  • Ongoing investments in EMRs, patient monitoring, and staff safety devices enhance operational efficiency and care quality.

  • Legislative changes, such as the recent bill affecting state-directed payments, are being closely monitored, with most patients expected to be exempt from new Medicaid work requirements.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
