Second Quarter Business Highlights

  • Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA exceeded guidance ranges
  • Record number of professionals on assignment
  • Double-digit year-over-year growth across all lines of business
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.1%
  • Launched Intellify, our proprietary Vendor Management System for Managed Service Programs (MSPs)
  • Rise in demand throughout the quarter, especially for travel assignments
  • $50.0 million optional prepayment on the term loan

“Our second quarter 2022 results reflect continued strong performance that showcases our ongoing success in leveraging technology and our deep relationships to efficiently place professionals across the healthcare continuum. We are emerging from the pandemic as a fundamentally different company, with a comprehensive suite of technologies that position us for long-term, sustained growth across all lines of business,” said John Martins, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cross Country Healthcare. He continued, “We remain committed to our investments in people and technology, and we see a strong demand from both existing and new MSP clients setting up a solid runway for continued growth.”


Second quarter consolidated revenue was $753.6 million, an increase of 127% year-over-year and a decrease of 4% sequentially. Consolidated gross profit margin was 22.6%, up 70 basis points year-over-year and up 40 basis points sequentially. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $52.9 million compared to $11.5 million in the prior year and $62.0 million in the prior quarter. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $1.40 compared to $0.31 in the prior year and $1.63 in the prior quarter. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) was $83.5 million or 11.1% of revenue, as compared with $24.3 million or 7.3% of revenue in the prior year, and $97.4 million or 12.3% of revenue in the prior quarter. Adjusted EPS was $1.40 compared to $0.47 in the prior year and $1.70 in the prior quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, consolidated revenue was $1.5 billion, an increase of 133% year-over-year. Consolidated gross profit margin was 22.4%, up 60 basis points year-over-year. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $114.9 million, or $3.03 per diluted share, compared to $31.0 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $180.9 million or 11.7% of revenue, as compared with $51.0 million or 7.7% of revenue in the prior year. Adjusted EPS was $3.10 compared to $1.05 in the prior year.

Quarterly Business Segment Highlights

Nurse and Allied Staffing

Revenue was $731.4 million, an increase of 131% year-over-year and a decrease of 4% sequentially. Contribution income was $97.6 million, an increase compared to $35.3 million in the prior year and a decrease compared to $110.1 million in the prior quarter. Average field contract personnel on a full-time equivalent (FTE) basis were 13,494 as compared with 7,578 in the prior year and 13,454 in the prior quarter. Revenue per FTE per day was $591 compared to $454 in the prior year and $628 in the prior quarter. The increase in the average number of FTEs was primarily due to headcount growth in travel nurse and allied, as well as the year-over-year additional headcount resulting from the Workforce Solutions Group (WSG) acquisition in June 2021. In the second quarter of 2022, average bill rates were down in the mid-single digits as expected, but volumes were stronger as we continued to experience high demand across a wide range of specialties spanning the healthcare continuum. A spike in professionals on assignment and volume growth primarily drove the year-over-year revenue improvement.

Physician Staffing

Revenue was $22.1 million, an increase of 41% year-over-year and a decrease of 4% sequentially. Contribution income was $1.2 million, an increase compared to $0.6 million in the prior year and a decrease compared to $1.8 million in the prior quarter. Total days filled were 12,416 as compared with 9,775 in the prior year and 13,068 in the prior quarter. Revenue per day filled was $1,781 as compared with $1,600 in the prior year and $1,772 in the prior quarter. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in volume in primary care physicians and certified registered nurse anesthetists. The year-over-year increase in contribution income was driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher direct costs.


Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Highlights

Cash flow provided by operations for the quarter was $18.1 million, primarily due to the strong net income growth, partly offset by an increase in accounts receivable. Days' sales outstanding, net of amounts owed to subcontractors, was 66 days as of June 30, 2022, up 10 days year-over-year and up 4 days sequentially, primarily due to the timing of revenue recognized throughout the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash flow used in operations was $10.9 million compared to $9.4 million in the prior year.

Given positive cash from operations, the Company made a $50.0 million optional prepayment on its Subordinated Term Loan to reduce interest costs. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $0.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $123.9 million principal balance on its term loan, with $85.0 million of borrowings drawn under its ABL facility, and $17.5 million of letters of credit outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, borrowing base availability under the ABL was $300.0 million, with $197.5 million of excess availability.

(a)


Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, acquisition and integration-related costs, restructuring (benefits) costs, legal settlements and fees, impairment charges, gain or loss on derivative, loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on disposal of fixed assets, gain or loss on lease termination, gain or loss on sale of business, other expense (income), net, equity compensation, and applicant tracking system costs. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Management presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net income attributable to common stockholders as an indicator of operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes and as one performance measure in its incentive programs for certain members of its management team. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, closely matches the operating measure as defined by the Company's credit facilities. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by the Company's consolidated revenue.

(b)


The Company released the majority of its valuation allowance on deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021, resulting in increased income tax expense in 2022.

(c)


Acquisition and integration-related costs include costs for legal and advisory fees for the Workforce Solutions Group (WSG) acquisition that closed on June 8, 2021.

(d)


Restructuring (benefits) costs are primarily comprised of employee termination costs, lease-related exit costs, and reorganization costs as part of planned cost savings initiatives. Amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 include a benefit associated with the early termination of one of the Company's corporate offices which was previously restructured.

(e)


Legal settlements and fees include legal settlement charges as presented on the consolidated statements of operations as well as legal fees pertaining to non-operational legal matters outside the normal course of operations which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred legal fees related to various legal matters outside the normal course of operations.

(f)


Impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was comprised of $1.7 million related to right-of-use assets and related property in connection with leases that were vacated. Impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was comprised of $1.9 million related to right-of-use assets and related property in connection with leases that were vacated during the second quarter and $0.1 million related to the write-off of a discontinued software development project.

(g)


Loss on early extinguishment of debt for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 consists of a prepayment premium and the write-off of debt issuance costs related to the optional prepayment on our term loan made in the second quarter of 2022.

(h)


The gain on lease termination for the three and six months ended June 20, 2022 is a result of the early termination of one of the Company's corporate offices, recognized in the second quarter of 2022.

(i)
