Aveanna Healthcare (AVAH) grows revenue and profit while adding Family First deal
Aveanna Healthcare Holdings reported stronger results for the three and six months ended July 4, 2026. Quarterly revenue was $670.5 million, up from $589.6 million a year earlier, with growth across Private Duty Services, Home Health & Hospice, and Medical Solutions. Q2 net income rose to $40.3 million from $27.0 million, while diluted EPS was $0.18.
For the first six months of 2026, revenue reached $1.32 billion and net income $81.9 million. Operating cash flow improved to $85.3 million, aided by lower interest expense. Cash and equivalents declined to $97.2 million from $193.3 million as the company spent $173.7 million in cash to acquire Family First Holding, expanding its pediatric home-care footprint and adding $156.2 million of goodwill.
The balance sheet shows $1.32 billion of term loans and a $165.0 million receivables securitization outstanding at quarter-end, with total liabilities of $1.82 billion. Aveanna refinanced and repriced its credit facilities, reducing interest margins, and uses interest rate caps on up to $1.40 billion of notional exposure. Subsequent to quarter-end, securitization borrowings increased to $206.3 million.
Positive
- Revenue growth of 13.7% year over year in Q2 2026 to $670.5 million, with all three segments contributing.
- Q2 net income increased 49.1% to $40.3 million; six‑month net income more than doubled to $81.9 million.
- Operating cash flow rose to $85.3 million for the first six months of 2026, up from $42.9 million.
- Family First acquisition for $173.7 million broadens the Private Duty Services footprint and adds scale in pediatric home care.
- Interest expense declined 26.1% in Q2 to $26.5 million net, helped by credit facility repricing and derivative gains.
Negative
- High leverage persists with $1.32 billion of term loans and a $165.0 million securitization outstanding at quarter‑end.
- Cash decreased by $96.1 million in six months to $97.2 million, driven by acquisition spending and investing outflows.
- Gross margin compressed from 35.8% to 32.6%, and Field contribution margin fell from 20.5% to 18.1% year over year in Q2.
- Insurance reserves increased to $120.1 million from $97.8 million, reflecting higher estimated professional liability and workers’ compensation exposure.
- Post‑quarter securitization borrowings rose to $206.3 million, increasing reliance on receivables‑backed financing.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), about us and our industry that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial condition, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “design,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potentially,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.
These statements are based on certain assumptions that we have made considering our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate in these circumstances. As you read and consider this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to risks that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following risks:
Additionally, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q might not prove to be accurate and you should not place undue reliance upon them or otherwise rely upon them as predictions of future events. All forward-looking statements made by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia and has locations in
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, and business combinations accounted for as purchases have been included in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of July 4, 2026 and the results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, respectively. The results reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any future period or the year ending January 2, 2027. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 19, 2026.
Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday that is closest to December 31 of a given year, resulting in either a 52 or 53-week fiscal year. The interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets reflect the accounts of the Company as of July 4, 2026 and January 3, 2026. For the three-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations and stockholders' equity (deficit) reflect the accounts of the Company from April 5, 2026 through July 4, 2026 and March 30, 2025 through June 28, 2025, respectively, each of which include 13 weeks. For the six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows reflect the accounts of the Company from January 4, 2026, through July 4, 2026 and December 29, 2024 through June 28, 2025, respectively, each of which includes 26 weeks.
Use of Estimates
The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform with U.S. GAAP. In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires public entities to disclose additional information that disaggregates certain expense captions into specified categories in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Clarifying the Effective Date. The new standard clarifies that ASU 2024-03 is required to be adopted in the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The disclosure updates are

required to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amended guidance will have on its disclosures.
3. REVENUE
The Company evaluates the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows using the five-step process. The Company uses a portfolio approach to group contracts with similar characteristics and analyze historical cash collection trends.
Revenue is primarily derived from (i) pediatric healthcare services provided to patients, including private duty nursing and therapy services; (ii) adult home health and hospice services (collectively “patient revenue”); and (iii) the delivery of enteral nutrition and other products to patients (“product revenue”). The services provided by the Company have no fixed duration and can be terminated by the patient or the facility at any time; therefore, each service provided is its own stand-alone contract. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred due to the short-term nature of the contracts.
Services ordered by a healthcare provider in an episode of care are not separately identifiable and therefore have been combined into a single performance obligation for each contract. The Company recognizes revenue as its performance obligations are completed. For patient revenue, the performance obligation is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the healthcare services provided. For product revenue, the performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time of delivery of the product to the patient. The Company recognizes patient revenue equally over the number of treatments provided in a single episode of care. Typically, patients and third-party payers are billed within several days of the service being performed, and payments are due based on contract terms.
The Company’s lines of business are generally classified into the following categories: private duty services; home health and hospice; and medical solutions.
Private Duty Services (“PDS”). The PDS business includes a broad range of pediatric and adult healthcare services, including private duty skilled nursing, non-clinical services, which include support services and personal care services, pediatric therapy services, rehabilitation services, and nursing services in schools and pediatric day healthcare centers.
Home Health & Hospice (“HHH”). The HHH business provides home health, hospice, and personal care services to predominately elderly patients.
Medical Solutions (“MS”). The MS business includes the delivery of enteral nutrition and other products to patients.
For the PDS, HHH, and MS businesses, the Company receives payments from the following sources for services rendered: (i) state governments under their respective Medicaid programs (“Medicaid”); (ii) Managed Care providers of state government Medicaid programs (“Medicaid MCO”); (iii) commercial insurers; (iv) other government programs including Medicare, Tricare and ChampVA (collectively, “Medicare”); and (v) individual patients. As the period between the time of service and time of payment is
Most contracts contain variable consideration; however, it is unlikely that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved, and therefore, the Company has included the variable consideration in the estimated transaction price. The Company determines the transaction price based on established billing rates reduced by contractual adjustments provided to third-party payers and by implicit price concessions which the Company estimates based on its historical collection experience. Management estimates the transaction price on a payer-specific basis given its interpretation of the applicable regulations or contract terms. Updated regulations and contract negotiations occur frequently, necessitating regular review and assessment by management. There were no material revenue adjustments recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 or June 28, 2025, respectively.
As of July 4, 2026 and January 3, 2026, estimated contractual adjustments and implicit price concessions of $

Acquired trade names are amortized over a 1-year useful life and licenses are classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets. The preliminary goodwill recognized is attributable to the excess of the particular purchase price of the Acquisition over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, including other identified intangible assets. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies resulting from the Acquisition. Preliminary goodwill of $

On May 26, 2026, Aveanna Healthcare LLC (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the thirteenth amendment (the "Amendment") to its First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of March 16, 2017 (as further amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), which constituted a repricing of the facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement resulting in a

6. SECURITIZATION FACILITY
On November 12, 2021, the Company (through a wholly owned special purpose entity, Aveanna SPV I, LLC) (the “special purpose entity”) and a lending institution entered into a Receivables Financing Agreement, which, as amended, has a scheduled termination date of
Pursuant to two separate sale agreements, each of which is among Aveanna Healthcare, LLC, as initial servicer, certain of the Company's subsidiaries and the special purpose entity, the subsidiaries sold substantially all of their existing and future accounts receivable balances to the special purpose entity. The special purpose entity uses the accounts receivable balances to collateralize loans made under the Securitization Facility. The Company retains the responsibility of servicing the accounts receivable balances pledged as collateral under the Securitization Facility and provides a performance guaranty.
The outstanding balance under the Securitization Facility was $
The Securitization Facility is accounted for as a collateralized financing activity, rather than a sale of assets; therefore: (i) accounts receivable balances pledged as collateral are presented as assets and the borrowings are presented as liabilities in the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets; (ii) the consolidated statements of operations reflect the interest expense associated with the collateralized borrowings; and (iii) receipts from customers related to the underlying accounts receivable are reflected as operating cash flows and borrowings and repayments under the collateralized loans are reflected as financing cash flows within the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Securitization Facility is included within current liabilities on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets as it is collateralized by current patient accounts receivable and not because payments are due within one year of the balance sheet date.
7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, patient accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of the instruments.

The fair values of the interest rate swap and cap agreements are based on the estimated net proceeds or costs to settle the transactions as of the respective balance sheet dates. The valuations are based on commercially reasonable industry and market practices for valuing similar financial instruments. See Note 8 – Derivative Financial Instruments for further details on the Company’s interest rate swap and cap agreements.
8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates, and the Company seeks to mitigate a portion of this risk by entering into derivative contracts. The derivatives the Company has used are interest rate swaps and interest rate caps. The Company recognizes derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets and does not designate the derivatives as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are therefore recorded in earnings throughout the terms of the respective derivatives.
The Company has multiple interest rate cap agreements. The cap agreements with an expiration date of

9. INCOME TAXES
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1., also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA), was signed into law in the U.S., which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. Among other changes, OBBBA provides full bonus depreciation for certain assets placed into service after January 19, 2025, an election to expense current U.S. incurred research or experimental expenditures, and a new calculation allowing companies to deduct additional interest expense.
The Company records its provision for income taxes on an interim basis based upon the estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the full year applied to “ordinary” income or loss, adjusted each quarter for discrete items. The Company analyzes various factors to determine the estimated annual effective income tax rate, including projections of annual earnings, the impact of state and local income taxes, its ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards, and available tax planning alternatives.

Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP")
In February 2026, the Compensation Committee approved grants of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") under the Company's 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan. Annual grants of RSUs and PSUs have been awarded since fiscal year 2022. Upon vesting, each RSU and each PSU settles for one share of common stock.
The RSUs are subject to a three-year service-based cliff vesting schedule commencing on the date of grant. Compensation cost for the RSUs is measured based on the grant date fair value of each underlying share of common stock and the number of RSUs granted and is recognized over the applicable vesting period on a straight-line basis. In February 2026, the Company granted
Senior Management Retention Plan ("SMRP")

The performance condition related to the SMRP was achieved on March 29, 2025, resulting in the acceleration of the related compensation expense of the awards. The Company recorded

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Insurance Reserves
As is typical in the healthcare industry, the Company is subject to claims that its services have resulted in patient injury or other adverse effects.
The accrued professional liability insurance reserves included in the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets include estimates of the ultimate costs, including third-party legal defense costs, in the event the Company was unable to receive funds from claims made under commercial insurance policies, for claims that have been reported but not paid and claims that have been incurred but not reported at the balance sheet dates. Although substantially all reported claims are paid directly by the Company’s commercial insurance carriers (after the Company satisfies the applicable policy deductible and/or retention), the Company is ultimately responsible for payment of these claims in the event its insurance carriers become insolvent or otherwise do not honor the contractual obligations under the liability policies. The Company is required under U.S. GAAP to recognize these estimated liabilities in its consolidated financial statements on a gross basis; with a corresponding receivable from the insurance carriers reflecting the contractual indemnity provided by the carriers under the related liability policies.
Since October 1, 2025, the Company has maintained primary commercial insurance coverage on a claims-made basis for professional liability claims with a $
As of July 4, 2026, insurance reserves totaling $
Litigation and Other Current Liabilities
The Company is currently a party to various routine litigation incidental to the business. While management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of such proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or overall trends in results of operations, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Management has established provisions within other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, which in the opinion of management represents the best estimate of exposure and adequately provides for such losses that may occur from asserted claims related to the provision of professional services and which may not be covered by the Company’s insurance policies. Management believes that any additional unfavorable provisions would not be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position; however, if an unfavorable ruling on any asserted or unasserted claim were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s net earnings or financial position. The estimate of the potential impact from legal proceedings on the Company’s financial position or overall results of operations could change in the future.
Healthcare Regulatory Matters
Starting on October 30, 2019 the Company has received grand jury subpoenas issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division (the “Antitrust Division”), requiring the production of documents and information pertaining to nurse wages, reimbursement rates, and hiring activities in a few of its local markets. The Company is fully cooperating with the Antitrust Division with respect to this investigation. Based on the information currently available to the Company, management cannot predict the timing or outcome of this investigation, however, management does not believe the outcome of this investigation will be material to the Company's results of operations or financial position.

On July 19, 2023, the Company received a Civil Investigation Demand issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, United States Attorney’s Office, Middle District of Alabama (the “AUSA”), requiring the production of documents and information pertaining to Comfort Care Hospice, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, regarding issues of (1) improper submission of claims to Medicare and other federal healthcare programs for service to patients who were ineligible or not properly certified for said healthcare services and (2) improper remuneration to medical directors and skilled nursing facilities for patient referrals in violation of certain federal regulations. The Company is fully cooperating with the AUSA with respect to this investigation, and management believes that a loss event is not probable and that this matter will not materially impact the Company’s business, results of operations or financial position. However, based on the information currently available to the Company, management cannot predict the timing or outcome of this investigation or predict the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with the resolution of this matter.
Laws and regulations governing the government payer programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action. From time to time, governmental regulatory agencies conduct inquiries and audits of the Company’s practices. It is the Company’s practice to cooperate fully with such inquiries. In addition to laws and regulations governing the Medicaid, Medicaid Managed Care, and Tricare programs, there are a number of federal and state laws and regulations governing matters such as the corporate practice of medicine, fee splitting arrangements, anti-kickback statues, physician self-referral laws, false or fraudulent claims filing and patient privacy requirements. Failure to comply with any such laws or regulations could have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company believes that it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of wrongdoing.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The CODM evaluates segment performance using gross margin (and gross margin percentage). Gross margin includes revenue less all costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, but excludes branch and regional administrative expenses, corporate expenses and other non-field expenses. Revenue and cost presented below for the PDS and HHH segments primarily relate to patient services, while the MS segment’s revenue and cost are primarily from products. The CODM does not evaluate a measure of assets when assessing performance.
Results shown for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025 are not necessarily those which would be achieved if each segment was an unaffiliated business enterprise. There are no intersegment transactions.
The following tables summarize the Company’s segment information for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, respectively (amounts in thousands):

Overview
We are a leading, diversified home care platform focused on providing care to medically complex, high-cost patient populations. We directly address the most pressing challenges facing the U.S. healthcare system by providing safe, high-quality care in the home, the lower cost care setting preferred by patients. Our patient-centered care delivery platform is designed to improve the quality of care our patients receive, which allows them to remain in their homes and minimizes the overutilization of high-cost care settings such as hospitals. Our clinical model is led by our caregivers, primarily skilled nurses, who provide specialized care to address the complex needs of each patient we serve across the full range of patient populations: newborns, children, adults and seniors. We have invested significantly in our platform to bring together best-in-class talent at all levels of the organization and support such talent with industry leading training, clinical programs, infrastructure and technology-enabled systems, which are increasingly essential in an evolving healthcare industry. We believe our platform creates sustainable competitive advantages that support our ability to continue driving rapid growth, both organically and through acquisitions, and positions us as the partner of choice for the patients we serve.
Segments
We deliver our services to patients through three segments: Private Duty Services (“PDS”); Home Health & Hospice (“HHH”); and Medical Solutions (“MS”).
The following table summarizes the revenues generated by each of our segments for the three-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, respectively:

PDS Segment
Private Duty Services predominantly includes private duty nursing services (“PDN Services”), as well as pediatric therapy services (“Therapy Services”). PDN Services patients typically enter our service as children, as our most significant referral sources for new patients are children’s hospitals. It is common for PDN Services patients to continue to receive our services into adulthood, as approximately 30% of our PDN Services patients are over the age of 18.
PDN Services involve the provision of clinical and non-clinical hourly care to patients in their homes, which is the preferred setting for patient care. PDN Services typically last four to 24 hours a day, provided by our registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, home health aides, and other non-clinical caregivers who are focused on providing high-quality short-term and long-term clinical care to medically complex children and adults with a wide variety of serious illnesses and conditions. Patients who typically qualify for PDN Services include those with the following conditions:
PDN Services include:
Therapy Services provide a valuable multidisciplinary approach that we believe serves all of a child’s therapy needs. We provide both in-clinic and home-based therapy services to our patients. Therapy Services include physical, occupational and speech services. We regularly collaborate with physicians and other community healthcare providers, which allows us to provide more comprehensive care.
HHH Segment
Our Home Health and Hospice segment predominantly includes home health services (“HH Services”), as well as hospice and specialty program services. Our HHH patients typically enter our service as seniors, and our most significant referral sources for new patients are hospitals, physicians and long-term care facilities.
HH Services involve the provision of in-home services to our patients by our clinicians, which may include nurses, therapists, social workers and home health aides. Our caregivers work with our patients’ physicians to deliver a personalized plan of care to our patients in their homes. Home healthcare can help our patients recover after a hospitalization or surgery and assist patients in managing chronic illnesses. We also help our patients manage their medications. Through our care, we help our patients recover more fully in the comfort of their own homes, while remaining as independent as possible. HH Services include: in-home skilled nursing services; physical, occupational and speech therapy; medical social services and aide services.
Our hospice services involve a supportive philosophy and concept of care for those nearing the end of life. Our hospice care is a positive, empowering form of care designed to provide comfort and support to our patients and their families when a life-limiting illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments. The goal of hospice is to neither prolong life nor hasten death, but to help our patients live as dignified and pain-free as possible. Our hospice care is provided by a team of specially trained professionals in a variety of living situations, including at home, at the hospital, a nursing home, or an assisted living facility.
MS Segment
Through our Medical Solutions segment, we offer a comprehensive line of enteral nutrition supplies and other products to adults and children, delivered on a periodic or as-needed basis. We provide our patients with access to one of the largest selections of enteral formulas, supplies and pumps in our industry, with more than 300 nutritional formulas available. Our registered nurses, registered dietitians and customer service technicians support our patients 24 hours per day, 365 days per year, in-hospital, at-home, or remotely to help ensure that our patients have the best nutrition assessments, change order reviews and formula selection expertise.

Recent Developments
Acquisition of Family First Homecare
On June 1, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Family First Holding, LLC, a scaled, multi-state provider of pediatric home care that primarily provides skilled Private Duty Nursing services with 27 locations in seven states including Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, and North Carolina. The Company paid $173.7 million in cash as consideration, after customary adjustments for working capital and other items, funded with cash on hand. The operating results of Family First Holding, LLC subsequent to the acquisition date are included in our PDS operating segment.
Important Operating Metrics
We review the following important metrics on a segment basis and not on a consolidated basis:
PDS and MS Segment Operating Metrics
Volume
Volume represents PDS hours of care provided and MS unique patients served, which is how we measure the amount of our patient services provided. We review the number of hours of PDS care provided on a weekly basis and the number of MS unique patients served on a weekly basis. We believe volume is an important metric because it helps us understand how the Company is growing in each of these segments through strategic planning and acquisitions. We also use this metric to inform strategic decision making in determining opportunities for growth.
Revenue Rate
For our PDS and MS segments, revenue rate is calculated as revenue divided by PDS hours of care provided or the number of MS unique patients served, respectively. We believe revenue rate is an important metric because it represents the amount of revenue we receive per PDS hour of patient service or per individual MS patient transaction and helps management assess the amount of fees that we are able to bill for our services. Management uses this metric to assess how effectively we optimize reimbursement rates.
Cost of Revenue Rate
For our PDS and MS segments, cost of revenue rate is calculated as cost of revenue divided by PDS hours of care provided or the number of MS unique patients served, respectively. We believe cost of revenue rate is an important metric because it helps us understand the cost per PDS hour of patient service or per individual MS patient transaction. Management uses this metric to understand how effectively we manage labor and product costs.
Spread Rate
For our PDS and MS segments, spread rate represents the difference between the respective revenue rates and cost of revenue rates. Spread rate is an important metric because it helps us better understand the margins being recognized per PDS hour of patient service or per individual MS patient transaction. Management uses this metric to assess how successful we have been in optimizing reimbursement rates, managing labor and product costs, and assessing opportunities for growth.
HHH Segment Operating Metrics
Home Health Total Admissions and Home Health Episodic Admissions
Home health total admissions represents the number of new patients who have begun receiving services. We review the number of home health admissions on a daily basis as we believe it is a leading indicator of our growth. We measure home health admissions by reimbursement structure, separating them into home health episodic admissions, which are reimbursed for a fixed duration of care -
21
typically 30 days, and other admissions, which primarily follow a per-visit reimbursement model. This allows us to better understand the payor mix of our home health business.
Home Health Total Episodes
Home health total episodes represents the number of episodic admissions and episodic recertifications to capture patients who have either started to receive services or have been recertified for another episode of care. Management reviews home health total episodes on a monthly basis as to understand the volume of patients who were authorized to receive care during the month.
Home Health Episodic Mix
Home health episodic mix is calculated by dividing the total home health episodic admissions by the home health total admissions. Management monitors home health episodic mix as a simplified metric representing our home health admissions by reimbursement structure, which allows us to better understand the payer mix of our home health business.
Home Health Revenue Per Completed Episode
Home health revenue per completed episode is calculated by dividing total payments received from completed episodes by the number of completed episodes during the period. Episodic payments are determined by multiple factors including type of referral source, patient diagnoses, and utilization. Management tracks home health revenue per completed episode over time to evaluate both the clinical and financial profile of the business in a single metric.

The following discussion of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with the foregoing tables summarizing our consolidated results of operations and key performance measures, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026.
Summary Operating Results
24
Operating Income
Operating income was $80.0 million, or 11.9% of revenue, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to operating income of $80.0 million, or 13.6% of revenue, for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2026 was positively impacted by an increase of $0.7 million, or 0.6%, in Field contribution, as compared to the second quarter of 2025. The $0.7 million increase in Field contribution resulted from an $80.9 million, or 13.7%, increase in consolidated revenue, offset by a 2.4% decrease in our Field contribution margin to 18.1% for the second quarter of 2026 from 20.5% for the second quarter of 2025. The primary driver of our lower Field contribution margin over the comparable quarter was a 3.2% decrease in gross margin percentage, partially offset by a 0.8% decrease in branch and regional administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue to 14.5% for the second quarter of 2026 from 15.3% for the second quarter of 2025.
The following items primarily contributed to the comparable change in operating income over the comparable second quarter period:
Net Income
Net income for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 was $40.3 million, as compared to net income of $27.0 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. The $13.3 million increase in net income was primarily driven by the following:
Revenue
Revenue was $670.5 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $589.6 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $80.9 million, or 13.7%. This increase resulted from the following segment activity:
Our PDS segment revenue growth of $67.9 million, or 14.0%, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 was attributable to a 12.3% increase in volume and a 1.7% increase in revenue rate. The 12.3% increase in volume was primarily attributable to growth in demand for non-clinical services and comparatively higher volumes attributable to the Family First and Thrive acquisitions which were completed on June 1, 2026 and June 2, 2025, respectively.
The 1.7% increase in PDS revenue rate for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, resulted primarily from reimbursement rate increases issued by various state Medicaid programs and Managed Medicaid payers and improved implicit price concessions. Reimbursement rate increases in the second quarter of 2026 exceeded the second quarter of 2025 which benefited from certain rate increases applied retroactively for services provided during the first quarter of 2025.
Our HHH segment revenue growth of $8.9 million, or 14.8%, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, resulted primarily from a 18.5% increase in total episodes compared to the second quarter of 2025.
The $4.1 million, or 9.4%, increase in MS segment revenue for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, was attributable to a 4.4% increase in volume and a 5.0% increase in revenue rate compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Cost of Revenue, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization
25
Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, was $452.0 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $378.8 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $73.2 million, or 19.3%. This increase resulted from the following segment activity:
The 20.1% increase in PDS cost of revenue for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the previously described 12.3% increase in PDS volume combined with a 7.8% increase in PDS cost of revenue rate. The 7.8% increase in cost of revenue rate primarily resulted from higher caregiver labor costs, including the pass-through of reimbursement rate increases and higher general and professional liability reserves in the second quarter of 2026. The second quarter of 2025 also contained a $6.2 million reduction in professional liability reserves resulting from the release of certain accrued legal settlements which did not reoccur in the three-month period ended July 4, 2026.
The 17.7% increase in HHH cost of revenue for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 was driven primarily by higher home health total episodes.
The 10.4% increase in MS cost of revenue for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 was driven primarily by the previously noted increase in volume, and higher product costs.
Gross Margin and Gross Margin Percentage
Gross margin was $218.5 million, or 32.6% of revenue, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $210.8 million, or 35.8% of revenue, for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. Gross margin increased $7.7 million, or 3.7%, from the comparable prior year quarter. The 3.2% decrease in gross margin percentage for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the combined changes in our revenue rates and cost of revenue rates in each of our segments, which we refer to as the change in our spread rate, as follows:
Branch and Regional Administrative Expenses
Branch and regional administrative expenses were $97.1 million, or 14.5% of revenue, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $90.1 million, or 15.3% of revenue, for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $7.0 million, or 7.8%.
The 7.8% increase in branch and regional administrative expenses for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, was primarily due to the additional branch operations associated with the acquisition of Thrive and Family First, and costs associated with integrating the acquired operations into our operating footprint. The overall 0.8% decrease in branch and regional administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025 is the result of leveraging our operating support model to effectively incorporate increased volume from acquisitions and higher demand driven from our existing operating footprint.
Field Contribution and Field Contribution Margin
Field contribution was $121.4 million, or 18.1% of revenue, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $120.7 million, or 20.5% of revenue, for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. Field contribution increased $0.7 million, or 0.6%, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. The 2.4% decrease in Field contribution margin for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the following:
26
Field contribution and Field contribution margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Corporate expenses were $34.1 million, or 5.1% of revenue, for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $34.5 million, or 5.9% of revenue, for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization was $2.8 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $2.6 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $0.2 million, driven primarily from an increase in amortization expense related to acquired tradenames from Thrive.
Acquisition-related costs
Acquisition-related costs were $4.4 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $3.4 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. Acquisition-related costs in the second quarter of 2026 primarily related to costs associated with the acquisition of Family First. Acquisition-related costs in the second quarter of 2025 primarily related to the costs associated with the acquisition of Thrive.
Other Operating Expense
Other operating expense was $0.1 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to other operating expense of $0.2 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. Other operating expense in the comparable periods primarily resulted from the value associated with the impairment of certain licenses.
Interest Expense, net of Interest Income
Interest expense, net of interest income was $26.5 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $35.9 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025, a decrease of $9.4 million, or 26.1%. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower U.S. federal funds rate over the comparable periods, the positive effect of the refinancing of our credit facility in the third quarter of 2025, and the successful repricing of our credit facility during the second quarter of 2026. The drivers above reduced our weighted average interest rate from 9.0% as of June 28, 2025 to 6.6% as of July 4, 2026, resulting in lower interest expense. See further analysis under Liquidity and Capital Resources below.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income was $3.0 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to other expense of less than $0.1 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. We realized a $5.4 million decrease in non-cash valuation losses associated with interest rate derivatives resulting from changes in market expectations of future interest rates as of the comparable quarter-end valuation date, partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease in net settlements with interest rate derivative counterparties as interest rates decreased compared to the prior year fiscal quarter due to lower market interest rates. Details of other expense included the following:

Income Taxes
We record income tax expense during interim periods based on our estimate of the annual effective income tax rate, adjusted each quarter for discrete items. We analyze various factors to determine the estimated annual effective income tax rate, including projections of our annual earnings, the impact of state and local income taxes, our ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards, and available tax planning alternatives. We incurred income tax expense of $16.2 million for the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to income tax expense of $17.1 million for the three-month period ended June 28, 2025. This decrease in tax expense was primarily driven by including the full estimated effect of the OBBBA which was enacted on July 4, 2025, partially offset by differences in our projections of annual earnings at the end of each comparable three-month period, as well as changes in federal and state valuation allowances, and changes to federal and state current tax expense due to certain non-deductible expenses, most notably interest expense and executive compensation.

The following discussion of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with the foregoing tables summarizing our consolidated results of operations and key performance measures, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026.
Summary Operating Results
30
Operating Income
Operating income was $149.3 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to operating income of $131.8 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $17.5 million, or 13.3%.
Operating income for the six-month period of 2026 was positively impacted by an increase of $18.2 million, or 8.5%, in Field contribution as compared to the six-month period of 2025. The $18.2 million increase in Field contribution resulted from a $169.6 million, or 14.8%, increase in consolidated revenue partially offset by a 1.0% decrease in our Field contribution margin to 17.5% for the six-month period of 2026 from 18.5% for the six-month period of 2025. The primary driver of our lower Field contribution margin year over year was a decrease in gross margin percentage from 34.3% for the six-month period of 2025 to 32.2% for the six-month period of 2026, partially offset by a 1.2% decrease in branch and regional administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue to 14.6% for the six-month period of 2026 from 15.8% for the six-month period of 2025.
The following items primarily contributed to the $17.5 million increase in operating income compared to the first six months of 2025 primarily consists of:
Net Income
Net income for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 was $81.9 million, as compared to net income of $32.2 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. The $49.7 million increase in net income was primarily driven by the following:
Revenue
Revenue was $1,318.4 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $1,148.8 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $169.6 million, or 14.8%. This increase resulted from the following segment activity:
Our PDS segment revenue growth of $143.6 million, or 15.2%, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 was attributable to a 11.5% increase in volume and a 3.7% increase in revenue rate. The 11.5% increase in volume was primarily attributable to growth in demand for non-clinical services and new volumes attributable to the Thrive and Family First acquisitions which were completed on June 2, 2025 and June 1, 2026, respectively.
The 3.7% increase in PDS revenue rate for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, resulted primarily from reimbursement rate increases issued by various state Medicaid programs and Managed Medicaid payers and improved implicit price concessions. Reimbursement rate increases in the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 exceeded the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, which benefited from certain rate increases applied retroactively for services provided since July 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025.
Our HHH segment revenue increase of $18.8 million, or 16.1%, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted primarily from a 20.8% increase in total episodes compared to the first six months of 2025. The increase in HHH segment revenue was also driven by home health episodic mix, which increased from 75.9% for the first six months of 2025 to 80.9% for the first six months of 2026.
31
Our MS segment revenue growth of $7.3 million, or 8.5%, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, was attributable to an increase in volume of 4.4% compared to the first six months of 2025 and an increase in revenue rate of 4.1%.
Cost of Revenue, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization
Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, was $894.4 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $754.4 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $140.0 million, or 18.6%. This increase resulted from the following segment activity:
The 19.4% increase in PDS cost of revenue for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the previously described 11.5% increase in PDS volume combined with a 7.9% increase in PDS cost of revenue rate. The 7.9% increase in cost of revenue rate primarily resulted from higher caregiver labor costs, including the pass-through of reimbursement rate increases and higher general and professional liability expense over the comparable periods. The six-month period ended June 28, 2025 also included a $6.2 million release of certain accrued legal settlements which did not reoccur in the six-month period ended July 4, 2026.
The 18.2% increase in HHH cost of revenue for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 was driven primarily by higher home health total episodes over the comparable periods.
The 6.9% increase in MS cost of revenue for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 was driven by the previously described 4.4% increase in MS volumes and a 2.5% increase in cost of revenue rate.
Gross Margin and Gross Margin Percentage
Gross margin was $424.0 million, or 32.2% of revenue, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $394.4 million, or 34.3% of revenue, for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. Gross margin increased $29.6 million, or 7.5%, from the comparable prior year quarter. The 2.1% decrease in gross margin percentage for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the combined changes in our revenue rates and cost of revenue rates in each of our segments, which we refer to as the change in our spread rate in our PDS and MS segments, and the change in gross margin percentage in our HHH segment, as follows:
Branch and Regional Administrative Expenses
Branch and regional administrative expenses were $192.9 million, or 14.6% of revenue, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $181.5 million, or 15.8% of revenue, for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $11.4 million, or 6.3%.
The 6.3% increase in branch and regional administrative expenses for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, was primarily due to increased costs related to the acquisitions of Thrive and Family First, which were completed on June 2, 2025 and June 1, 2026, respectively, and increased our operating footprint, including adding new locations and support personnel. The overall 1.2% decrease in branch and regional administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025 is the result of leveraging our operating support model to effectively incorporate increased volume from acquisitions and higher demand driven from our existing operating footprint.
Field Contribution and Field Contribution Margin
Field contribution was $231.1 million, or 17.5% of revenue, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $212.9 million, or 18.5% of revenue, for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. Field contribution increased $18.2 million, or 8.5%, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. The 1.0% decrease in Field contribution margin for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 resulted from the following:

Field contribution and Field contribution margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Corporate expenses were $68.2 million, or 5.2% of revenue, for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $72.0 million, or 6.3% of revenue, for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. The $3.8 million, or 5.3%, decrease in corporate expenses resulted primarily from lower non-cash share-based compensation costs, primarily due to the acceleration of the SMRP in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by higher professional services expense in the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 related to modification costs associated with the repricing of the applicable interest rate margins of our Existing Credit Facility.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization was $5.9 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $5.2 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $0.7 million, or 13.1%. The $0.7 million increase primarily resulted from an increase in amortization expense related to acquired tradenames from Thrive.
Acquisition-related costs
Acquisition related costs were $7.5 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $3.5 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $4.0 million. Acquisition-related costs during the comparable periods were primarily related to the completed acquisitions of Thrive and Family First, which were completed on June 2, 2025 and June 1, 2026, respectively.
Other Operating Expense
Other operating expenses were $0.1 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $0.3 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. Other operating expense in the comparable periods primarily resulted from the value associated with the impairment of certain licenses.
Interest Expense, net of Interest Income
Interest expense, net of interest income was $54.0 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $72.1 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, a decrease of $18.1 million, or 25.1%. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower U.S. federal funds rate during the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, the positive effect of the refinancing of our credit facility in the third quarter of 2025, and the successful repricing of our credit facility during the second quarter of 2026. The drivers above reduced our weighted average interest rate from 9.0% as of June 28, 2025 to 6.6% as of July
33
4, 2026, resulting in lower interest expense. Further, our interest income increased $2.7 million over the comparable periods due to improved liquidity. See further analysis under Liquidity and Capital Resources below.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income was $6.2 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to other expense of $5.5 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. We realized a $16.4 million decrease in non-cash valuation losses on interest rate derivatives resulting from changes in market expectations of future interest rates as of the comparable valuation dates, offset by a $4.7 million decline in net settlements with interest rate derivative counterparties as interest rates decreased compared to the prior year period due to lower market interest rates. Details of other income (expense) included the following:

Income Taxes
We record income tax expense during interim periods based on our estimate of the annual effective income tax rate, adjusted each quarter for discrete items. We analyze various factors to determine the estimated annual effective income tax rate, including projections of our annual earnings, the impact of state and local income taxes, our ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards, and available tax planning alternatives. We incurred income tax expense of $19.5 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to income tax expense of $22.1 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. This decrease in tax expense was primarily driven by a discrete benefit that was partially offset by differences in our projections of annual earnings at the end of each comparable six-month periods, as well as the changes to federal and state current tax expense and the changes in federal and state valuation allowances due to certain non-deductible expenses, most notably interest expense and executive compensation, while also including the effect of the OBBBA, which was enacted on July 4, 2025.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results of operations prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), which we have discussed above, we also evaluate our financial performance using EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Field contribution and Field contribution margin.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and are not intended to replace financial performance measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, such as net income or loss. Rather, we present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures of our performance. We define EBITDA as net income or loss before interest expense, net; income tax expense or benefit; and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted for the impact of certain other items that are either non-recurring, infrequent, non-cash, unusual, or items deemed by management to not be indicative of the performance of our core operations, including impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, and other long-lived assets; non-cash, share-based compensation, and associated employer payroll taxes; loss on extinguishment of debt; fees related to debt modifications; the effect of interest rate derivatives; acquisition-related and integration costs; legal costs and settlements associated with acquisition matters; restructuring costs; other legal matters; other system transition costs, professional fees; and other costs including gains and losses on acquisitions and dispositions of certain businesses. As non-GAAP financial measures, our computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from similarly termed non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, making comparisons with other companies on the basis of this measure impracticable.
Management believes our computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance. In determining which adjustments are made to arrive at EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, management considers both (1) certain non-recurring, infrequent, non-cash or unusual items, which can vary significantly from year to year, as well as (2) certain other items that may be recurring, frequent, or settled in cash but which management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance and make business decisions.
We have incurred substantial acquisition-related costs and integration costs. The underlying acquisition activities take place over a defined timeframe, have distinct project timelines and are incremental to activities and costs that arise in the ordinary course of our
34
business. Therefore, we believe it is important to exclude these costs from our Adjusted EBITDA because it provides management a normalized view of our core, ongoing operations after integrating our acquired companies, which is an important measure in assessing our performance.
Given our determination of adjustments in arriving at our computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, these non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes or alternatives to net income or loss, revenue, operating income or loss, cash flows from operating activities, total indebtedness or any other financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Field Contribution and Field Contribution Margin
Field contribution and Field contribution margin are non-GAAP financial measures and are not intended to replace financial performance measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, such as gross margin and gross margin percentage. Rather, we present Field contribution and Field contribution margin as supplemental measures of our performance. We define Field contribution as gross margin less branch and regional administrative expenses. Field contribution margin is Field contribution as a percentage of revenue. As non-GAAP financial measures, our computations of Field contribution and Field contribution margin may vary from similarly termed non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, making comparisons with other companies on the basis of these measures impracticable.
Field contribution and Field contribution margin have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes or alternatives to gross margin, gross margin percentage, net income or loss, revenue, operating income or loss, cash flows from operating activities, total indebtedness, or any other financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Management believes Field contribution and Field contribution margin are helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance and evaluating trends in our branch and regional results, which can vary from year to year. We use Field contribution and Field contribution margin to make business decisions and assess the operating performance and results delivered by our core field operations, prior to corporate and other costs not directly related to our field operations. These metrics are also important because they guide us in determining whether or not our branch and regional administrative expenses are appropriately sized to support our caregivers and direct patient care operations. Additionally, Field contribution and Field contribution margin determine how effective we are in managing our field supervisory and administrative costs associated with supporting our provision of services and sale of products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our principal sources of cash have historically been from cash provided by operating activities. Our principal source of liquidity in addition to cash provided by operating activities, or when we have used net cash in our operating activities, has historically been from proceeds from our credit facilities and issuances of common stock.
Our principal uses of cash and liquidity have historically been for acquisitions, interest and principal payments under our credit facilities, payments under our interest rate derivatives, and financing of working capital. Acquisitions and payment of interest and related fees under our credit facilities is currently the most significant use of our operating cash flow. Our continued goal is to use cash flow provided by operations primarily as a source of cash to supplement the purchase price for acquisitions.
At July 4, 2026 we had $97.2 million in cash on hand, $110.0 million available to us under our Securitization Facility and approximately $225.5 million of borrowing capacity under the 2026 Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility. Available borrowing capacity under the 2026 Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a maintenance leverage covenant that becomes effective if more than 40% of the total commitment is utilized. We believe that our operating cash flows, available cash on hand, and availability under our Securitization Facility and 2026 Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors that are difficult to predict, including the size, timing and structure of any future acquisitions, future capital investments and future results of operations. We cannot assure you that cash provided by operating activities or cash and cash equivalents on hand will be sufficient to meet our future needs. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, we may have to obtain additional financing. If we obtain additional capital by issuing equity, the interests of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we incur additional indebtedness, that indebtedness may contain significant financial and other covenants that may significantly restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that we could obtain refinancing or additional financing on favorable terms or at all.
Cash Flow Activity
The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities for the six-month periods presented:

Operating Activities
The primary sources or uses of our operating cash flow are operating income or operating losses, as well as any other significant non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, and cash paid for interest. The timing of collections of accounts receivable and the payment of accounts payable, other accrued liabilities and accrued payroll can also impact and cause fluctuations in our operating cash flow. Cash provided by operating activities increased by $42.3 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026 compared to the six-month period ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to:
Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”)
DSO provides us with a gauge to measure the timing of cash collections against accounts receivable and related revenue. DSO is derived by dividing our average patient accounts receivable for the fiscal period by our average daily revenue for the fiscal period. The collection cycle for our HHH segment is generally longer than that of our PDS segment, primarily due to longer billing cycles for HHH, which is generally billed in thirty-day increments. The following table presents our trailing five quarter DSO for the periods presented below:

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $179.9 million for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026, as compared to $18.3 million for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025. The primary driver of the $161.6 million increase in cash used in the current period was the acquisition of Family First and cash paid for the interest rate cap of $4.6 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $6.7 million, from $8.2 million net cash used in financing activities for the six-month period ended June 28, 2025 to $1.4 million net cash used in financing activities for the six-month period ended July 4, 2026. The $6.7 million decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to less cash used to cover employee taxes on vesting of restricted stock and lower principal payments on term loans net of issuances from term loans during the six-month period ended July 4, 2026.
Indebtedness
We typically incur term loan indebtedness to finance our acquisitions, and we borrow under our Securitization Facility and Revolving Credit Facility from time to time for working capital purposes, as well as to finance acquisitions, as needed. The following table presents our current and long-term obligations under our credit facilities as of July 4, 2026 and January 3, 2026, as well as related interest expense for the six-month periods ended July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, respectively:

On May 26, 2026, Aveanna Healthcare LLC (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the thirteenth amendment (the "Amendment") to its First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of March 16, 2017 (as further amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), which constituted a repricing of the facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement resulting in a 0.50% reduction to applicable interest rate margins (the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, the "Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the Amendment, the outstanding senior secured term loans under the Existing Credit Agreement were refinanced with new senior secured term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1.3 billion (the “2026 Term Loans”) and the existing $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility was refinanced with a new $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “2026 Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the 2026 Term Loans, the “2026 Facilities”). On May 28, 2026, based on certain terms of the Amendment, and as the result of a favorable credit agency rating improvement, the applicable interest rate margins were decreased by an additional 0.25%.
38
We were in compliance with all financial covenants and restrictions related to existing credit facilities at July 4, 2026.
Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 2026, on July 6, 2026, in accordance with certain required minimum funding provisions in the Securitization Facility Agreement, as amended, we increased borrowings under the Securitization Facility by $41.3 million to $206.3 million. Available borrowing capacity under the Securitization Facility was $68.7 million subsequent to the required minimum borrowing.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations consist primarily of long-term debt obligations, interest payments, and operating leases. These contractual obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital needs. As of July 4, 2026, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026.
Critical Accounting Estimates
See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026 for accounting policies and related estimates we believe are the most critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements, financial condition and results of operations and which require complex management judgment and assumptions, or involve uncertainties. These critical accounting estimates include patient services and product revenue; business combinations; goodwill; and insurance reserves. There have been no changes to our critical accounting estimates or their application since the date of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We have exposure to changing interest rates under our Securitization Facility and the 2026 Refinancing Term Facility, both of which currently bear interest at variable rates based on SOFR. As of July 4, 2026, the total amount of outstanding variable rate debt was $1.5 billion.
As of July 4, 2026, we had multiple interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $1,400.0 million and cap rates of 2.96% and 4.00%, effective for $880.0 million and $520.0 million of the notional amounts, respectively. The 2027 and 2029 cap agreements have an expiration dates of February 28, 2027 and December 31, 2029, respectively. We do not enter into such arrangements for trading purposes.
Based on our outstanding indebtedness and the effect of our interest rate cap agreements at July 4, 2026, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates associated with the approximately $83.4 million of unhedged variable rate debt as of July 4, 2026 would cause interest expense to increase by approximately $2.7 million annually.
See Note 5 - Long-Term Obligations, Note 6 - Securitization Facility, and Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments, to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information on the material terms of our indebtedness and derivative financial instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 4, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) that have occurred during the three-month period ended July 4, 2026, that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to materially impact, our internal control over financial reporting.
39
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls’ effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies and procedures.
