NHC Reports Third Quarter 2023 Earnings

National HealthCare Corporation (NYSE American: NHC), the nation's oldest publicly traded senior health care company, announced today net operating revenues and grant income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 totaled $288,485,000 compared to $270,843,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, an increase of 6.5%. Excluding the seven skilled nursing facilities in Massachusetts and New Hampshire in which we ceased operations in September 2022, same-facility net operating revenues increased 11.8% during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period a year ago.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the reported GAAP net income attributable to NHC was $10,388,000 compared to a net loss of $2,429,000 for the same period in 2022. Excluding the unrealized gains or losses in our marketable equity securities portfolio and other non-GAAP adjustments, adjusted net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $13,250,000 compared to $7,783,000 for the same period in 2022 (*). The increase in non-GAAP earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 was primarily due to the continued occupancy increase in our skilled nursing and assisted living facilities, skilled nursing per diem increases from some of our government payors, and the continued reduction of nurse agency staffing expenses within our operations. The GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.68 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to a loss per share of $(0.16) for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.86 and $0.50 for the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively (*).
