Addus HomeCare reports Q3 EPS $1.56, consensus $1.53

Reports Q3 revenue $362.3M, consensus $354.5M. Commenting on the results, Dirk Allison, CEO, said, “Our third quarter results reflect the continued strong momentum that we have experienced in our business throughout 2025, with net service revenues up 25.0% and adjusted EBITDA up 31.6% over the third quarter of 2024. During the quarter, we saw continued stable hiring trends, which supported our business, especially in our personal care segment. We continue to see favorable demand trends as consumers and payers continue to recognize the value and cost benefits of home-based healthcare services. Addus is well positioned to meet this growing demand with our expanding market coverage, along with our ability to provide the full continuum of care in certain markets. We are proud of our expanding team of capable and dedicated caregivers who provide outstanding care to a growing number of patients and families across the markets we serve. Our personal care business was the key driver of our growth and accounted for 76.1% of our revenues for the third quarter. These results include the addition of recent acquisitions, including the Gentiva personal care operations on December 2, 2024, and Helping Hands Home Care Service, Inc. on August 1, 2025. The 6.6% organic revenue growth in our personal care business was supported by strong volumes as well as higher rates in certain key markets compared with the same period last year. We are very pleased with the favorable funding support from many of the states where we operate, including a recent 9.9% rate increase in Texas that was effective September 1, 2025. Following the acquisition of the Gentiva operations, Texas is our second largest personal care market, so this increase will have a significant positive impact on our business going forward. Our hospice care business, which accounted for 19.0% of our revenue in the third quarter, has continued to improve throughout 2025, with solid 19.0% organic revenue growth driven by year-over-year increases in admissions, average daily census, patient days and revenue per patient day. We are realizing the benefits of operational changes and new sales leadership, and we look forward to opportunities for continued growth in our hospice care service line. While home health represents our smallest business segment, accounting for 4.9% of third quarter revenue, it is an integral part of our strategy to offer three levels of home-based care and meet the evolving needs of the patients we serve. We are pleased with the favorable trends in our business so far in 2025 and encouraged by our continued momentum. Our strategy of leveraging strong organic growth with the support of recent acquisitions has yielded favorable results and set the stage for sustained success. As we continue to expand our market coverage, the lower costs and overall benefits of home-based care put Addus in a favorable position with state Medicaid programs and our managed care partners. We have a strong competitive advantage with a proven and scalable operating model and the ability to offer the full continuum of home-based care in select markets. We are excited about the opportunities ahead for Addus as we work together to deliver greater value to our shareholders and the patients and communities we serve.”
