Recent press releases and 8-K filings for EHAB.
- Despite a negative rate reimbursement in the final rule for 2026, Enhabit is confident in delivering organic profitability growth in 2026 at a similar rate to 2025 due to ongoing efficiency efforts. CMS finalized a 1% cut for the behavior adjustment and a 3% temporary adjustment for recoupment, with an estimated $460 million to be recouped in 2026 over approximately a 10-year period.
- The company plans to target increased investment in de novos or strategic M&A in 2026, leveraging improved balance sheet flexibility and rate clarity. This will likely involve smaller to medium-sized home health M&A and accelerated hospice de novo activity. Enhabit aims to deploy $25 million-$50 million for targeted acquisitions or investments.
- In Q3, 57% of non-Medicare admissions were under payer innovation contracts, up from 52% last year. Recent renegotiations of these contracts, which are not linked to Medicare fee-for-service, resulted in low double-digit rate increases. Approximately 20% of the company's census is Medicare Advantage (MA) episodic linked to Medicare fee-for-service.
- Enhabit exited the quarter with a leverage ratio of 3.9. The company expects a wage increase of approximately 3% this year for both home health and hospice, with similar expectations for next year. Long-term volume growth for both home health and hospice is projected at mid to high single digits.
