Corporate Office Costs and Other Expenses
Corporate office costs increased to $18.1 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter from $15.6 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter, primarily to support the larger number of clinics in 2025, as well as costs associated with acquisition integration and the implementation of a new financial and human resources system. Implementation costs associated with the new financial and human resources system are expected to continue through the end of 2026. As a percentage of net revenue, corporate office costs was 8.9% for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to 8.6% for the 2024 Fourth Quarter. Excluding the acquisition integration costs and costs associated with the implementation of the new financial and human resources system of $1.0 million and $0.5 million in each comparative quarter, corporate office costs was 8.5% and 8.3% of net revenue for the 2025 Fourth Quarter and the 2024 Fourth Quarter, respectively.
The Company revalued contingent consideration related to certain acquisitions and recognized a net loss (an increase in the related liabilities) of $5.2 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to a net gain (a decrease in the related liabilities) of $5.1 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter.
A non-cash impairment charge of $2.4 million was recognized during the 2024 Fourth Quarter related to the impairment of assets held for sale. No impairment was recorded during the 2025 Fourth Quarter.
Operating income was $16.8 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $19.7 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter. Excluding the impact of certain costs discussed above, adjusted operating income (1) increased $5.4 million or 30.3% to $23.4 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter from $17.9 million in the 2024 Fourth Quarter. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measure”.
Interest expense increased by $0.3 million to $2.3 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $2.0 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter due to a higher average outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility for the 2025 Fourth Quarter. The interest rate associated with borrowings on the Company’s credit facilities was 4.8% in each of the 2025 Fourth Quarter and the 2024 Fourth Quarter, with an all-in effective interest rate (including all associated costs) of 5.6% and 5.5% over the same periods, respectively.
Interest income was $0.1 million during the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $0.3 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter.

The provision for income taxes was $5.8 million for each of the 2025 Fourth Quarter and 2024 Fourth Quarter. Income tax expense for the 2025 Fourth Quarter included an adjustment of $1.2 million to revalue the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities using the most current statutory income tax rate.
USPH Net Income and Non-GAAP Measures
Net income attributable to non-controlling interest (temporary and permanent) was $5.0 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $3.3 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter.
USPH Net Income was $4.2 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $9.2 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter, with the decrease attributable to the change in fair value of contingent earnout consideration quarter over quarter. Under GAAP, increases and decreases in the value of redeemable noncontrolling interests, net of taxes, are not included in net income, but they are included in the calculation of earnings per share. The Company’s improved performance in the 2025 Fourth Quarter increased the value of these ownership interests, net of taxes, by $10.8 million, which reduced earnings per share. Loss per share was $0.44 for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to earnings per share of $0.52 for the 2024 Fourth Quarter.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (1) was $24.8 million for the 2025 Fourth Quarter, an increase of $3.0 million or 13.5%, from $21.8 million for the 2024 Fourth Quarter. Non-GAAP Operating Results (1) was $10.2 million, or $0.67 per share, for the 2025 Fourth Quarter compared to $7.8 million, or $0.51 per share, for the 2024 Fourth Quarter.

Excluding certain incentive costs related to the Metro acquisition, which occurred on October 31, 2024, and clinic closures, the adjusted gross profit margin (1) increased $18.5 million or 16.8%. to $129.0 million, or 19.4% as a percent of net revenues for the 2025 Year compared to $110.5 million, or 19.2% as a percent of net revenues, for the 2024 Year.

See the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measure”.
Other expenses were $8.9 million for the 2025 Year compared to $2.8 million for the 2024 Year, with the increase primarily due to higher interest expense as a result of increased borrowings and lower interest income as the excess cash available during the 2024 Year has been deployed to fund acquisitions since that time. Additionally, the Company revalued a put-right liability related to the future purchase of an IIP business and recognized a net non-cash expense (an increase in the related liability) of $1.3 million for the 2025 Year compared to net non-cash expense of $0.1 million for the 2024 Year.

BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW
Total cash and cash equivalents were $35.6 million as of December 31, 2025, compared to $41.4 million as of December 31, 2024. The Company had $161.8 million in outstanding borrowings and $144.5 million in available credit under the Company’s revolving facility as of December 31, 2025. This compares to $151.6 million of outstanding borrowings and $164.0 million in available credit under the Company’s revolving facility as of December 31, 2024.
The Company repurchased 81,322 of its own shares for total consideration of $5.6 million on the open market during the 2025 Fourth Quarter, demonstrating its confidence in the long-term prospects of the Company.
RECENT ACQUISITIONS
On January 2, 2026, the Company acquired an eight-clinic practice currently generating approximately $8.0 million in annual revenue and approximately 66,000 in annual visits. USPH acquired a 50% interest and 50% was retained by the previous owners.
On January 31, 2026, the Company acquired an industrial injury prevention business currently generating approximately $7.0 million in annual revenue. USPH acquired a 70% interest and 30% was retained by the previous owner.
The Company’s strategy is to continue acquiring multi-clinic outpatient physical therapy practices and home-care physical and speech therapy practices, to develop outpatient physical therapy clinics as satellites in existing partnerships, and to continue acquiring companies that provide industrial injury prevention services.
STRATEGIC HOSPITAL ALLIANCES
On February 2, 2026, the Company announced a 10-year strategic alliance between its subsidiary partner, MSO Metro, LLC (“Metro”), and a prominent New York hospital system. Under the agreement, 60 of Metro’s existing outpatient physical therapy clinics in New York will become part of the hospital system’s clinical services network. The alliance is expected to begin operations with an initial group of clinics in mid-2026, with all 60 clinics anticipated to be operational by year-end 2026.
On February 25, 2026, the Company also announced a 10-year strategic alliance between another of its subsidiary partners and a local hospital system. Under the agreement, the subsidiary partner’s existing ten clinics will become part of the hospital’s clinical services network. The alliance is expected to begin operations by mid-2026, with all ten clinics anticipated to be operational by year-end 2026.
These arrangements will be accretive to the Company’s revenue, EBITDA, and margins. Upon full integration of 60 of Metro’s clinics, the incremental annualized EBITDA contribution to Metro is expected to be at least $12 million, with the corresponding impact to USPH estimated to be at least $6 million, reflecting its 50% ownership interest in Metro. Upon full integration of the additional subsidiary partner’s ten clinics, the incremental annualized EBITDA contribution to the subsidiary partner is expected to be at least $2 million, with the corresponding impact to USPH estimated to be at least $1.3 million, reflecting its 65% ownership interest in the subsidiary partner. Given the phased ramp-up of these affiliations beginning mid-year 2026, a modest contribution from these alliances has been incorporated into the Company’s 2026 guidance discussed below.
2026 EARNINGS GUIDANCE
Management expects the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA for 2026 to be in the range of $102.0 million to $106.0 million. Guidance includes an estimated $2.5 million in incremental revenue associated with the estimated 1.75% Medicare rate increase beginning January 1, 2026, which applies to all of the Company’s traditional Medicare visits and a portion of the Company’s Medicare Advantage visits. Guidance also includes the modest contribution in 2026 from the strategic hospital alliances as discussed above, given the phased ramp-up of these affiliations beginning mid-year 2026.
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.
QUARTERLY DIVIDEND
The Company’s Board of Directors raised the Company’s quarterly dividend rate from $0.45 per share to $0.46 per share, effective immediately, and declared a quarterly dividend for the first quarter of 2026 at the higher rate. The dividend will be payable on April 10, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 13, 2026.
CFO TRANSITION
The Company also is announcing that its Chief Financial Officer, Carey Hendrickson, will be resigning from his position with the Company on April 24, 2026 to pursue another chief financial officer position with a publicly-traded company. Concurrent with Mr. Hendrickson’s departure, Jason Curtis, the Company’s Senior Vice President of Finance and Accounting, will assume the responsibilities of Chief Financial Officer on an interim basis while the Company conducts a comprehensive search for a permanent successor.
Chris Reading, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented, “We are grateful for Carey’s many contributions to USPH over the past 5 years. We wish him well in his future endeavors.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
TO THE MOST DIRECTLY COMPARABLE GAAP MEASURE
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 and Operating Results. The tables also provide a reconciliation of additional non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure. Management believes providing Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results to investors is useful 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. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results, 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, changes in revaluation of put-right liability, equity-based awards compensation expense, clinic closure costs, impairment on assets held for sale, business acquisition related costs, costs related to a one-time financial and human resources systems upgrade, loss on sale of a partnership 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, clinic closure costs, loss on sale of a partnership, changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, business acquisition related costs, an income tax adjustment to revalue the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities to the most current statutory tax rate, costs related to a one-time financial and human resources systems upgrade 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 and Operating Results 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.
