Taji Phillips's questions to ATIP leadership • Q4 2023
Question
Asked about the expected cadence of earnings power throughout 2024, near-term leverage targets, and the strategy for achieving sustainable growth on top of tougher comparisons from 2023.
Answer
The company expects earnings to follow typical seasonality (stronger Q2 and Q4) and for 2023's positive trends to continue, with more definitive guidance coming in May. The primary focus is on achieving cash flow breakeven in 2025, not a specific leverage target. Sustainable growth will be pursued through traditional methods like increasing referrals and capacity, as well as non-traditional avenues like new strategic partnerships and different reimbursement models.
