Rhea-AI Filing Summary
U.S. Physical Therapy, Inc. reported record first quarter 2026 net revenue of $198.3 million, driven by net patient revenue of $164.3 million and other revenue of $34.0 million. Net income attributable to USPH shareholders was $5.0 million, down from $9.9 million a year earlier, with basic and diluted earnings per share at a loss of $0.12 versus earnings of $0.80.
Adjusted EBITDA, a key non-GAAP metric, increased to $20.2 million from $19.5 million. Management reaffirmed full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $102.0 million to $106.0 million, reflecting contributions from two strategic hospital alliances. Upon full integration, these alliances are expected to add at least $6.0 million and $1.3 million of annualized EBITDA to USPH based on its ownership stakes.
The board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.46 per share, payable June 12, 2026 to shareholders of record on May 22, 2026. The company ended the quarter with 783 outpatient physical therapy clinics in 44 states and continues to invest in technology, hospital alliances and industrial injury prevention services.

Insights
Record revenue and steady EBITDA, but GAAP earnings declined.
U.S. Physical Therapy delivered record Q1 2026 net revenue of $198.3M, with net patient revenue up to $164.3M. Segment data show physical therapy net patient revenue rising 7.7% and industrial injury prevention net revenue up 11.8%, indicating broad-based growth.
However, GAAP net income attributable to shareholders fell to $5.0M from $9.9M, and earnings per share turned to a loss of $0.12. This shift is tied to items such as changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration and revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interests, which also motivate the company’s emphasis on non-GAAP metrics.
Management reaffirmed 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $102.0M–$106.0M, incorporating phased contributions beginning in May 2026 from two hospital alliances. These are expected to add at least $6.0M and $1.3M in annualized EBITDA to USPH upon full integration, supporting the dividend of $0.46 per share declared for payment on June 12, 2026.

6 terms
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation..."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Operating Results financial
"Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH shareholders less changes in revaluation of a put-right liability..."
Operating results are the financial outcomes a company produces from its regular business activities — mainly the money it brings in from sales and the costs it takes on to run the business — showing whether core operations are profitable. Investors care because these figures reveal the health and efficiency of the business, much like a report card or a restaurant’s daily tally, and help predict future earnings, cash flow and the stock’s potential performance.
redeemable non-controlling interest financial
"Redeemable non-controlling interest - temporary equity"
A redeemable non-controlling interest is a minority ownership stake in a subsidiary that can be sold back to or bought out by the parent company or subsidiary at a predetermined time or under certain conditions. For investors, it matters because this claim can act like a future cash obligation or potential dilution, changing the parent’s reported equity, net income allocation, and near‑term cash needs—much like a few partners in a small business who can force the owner to buy them out.
industrial injury prevention financial
"provider of industrial injury prevention services (“IIP”)"
Measures, equipment and practices that companies use to keep workers from getting hurt on the job, such as training, safety gear, machine guards, and procedures for risky tasks. Like routine maintenance for a car, effective prevention reduces breakdowns — for investors that means lower medical and legal costs, fewer lost workdays, steadier production and less reputational or regulatory risk, all of which can protect profits and valuation.
cash flow hedge financial
"Unrealized gain (loss) on cash flow hedge"
A cash flow hedge is an accounting label for a contract or arrangement used to offset expected future swings in a company’s cash payments or receipts — for example from variable-rate interest, foreign currency sales, or forecasted purchases. It matters to investors because it aims to smooth future cash and earnings volatility: gains or losses on the hedge are held out of current profit and reported separately until the underlying transaction affects results, much like buying insurance to steady future bills.
contingent earn-out consideration financial
"Loss (gain) on change in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration"
Contingent earn-out consideration is extra money a buyer may pay a seller after a deal closes only if the acquired business hits agreed future targets (for example sales, profits, or milestones). For investors it matters because it adjusts the effective price paid, shifts risk between buyer and seller, can change future cash flows and accounting, and creates incentives tied to the business’s performance — like receiving a bonus only if certain goals are met.

Record First Quarter Revenue,
Reaffirms Full Year Guidance
Houston, TX, May 6, 2026 – U.S. Physical Therapy, Inc. (“USPH” or the “Company”) (NYSE, NYSE Texas: USPH), a national operator of outpatient physical therapy clinics and provider of industrial injury prevention
services (“IIP”), today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (“Q1 2026”).
|
•
|
Total net revenue of $198.3 million for Q1 2026, a 7.9% increase over the first quarter ended
March 31, 2025 (“Q1 2025”).
|
|
•
|
Net income attributable to USPH shareholders of $5.0 million for Q1 2026, compared to $9.9
million for Q1 2025. Included in pretax income for Q1 2026 was a loss on change in fair value of contingent earn out consideration of $2.0 million versus a gain of $4.8 million in Q1 2025. Under GAAP, changes in the value of redeemable
noncontrolling interests, representing our partners’ ownership stakes in subsidiaries not fully owned by USPH, are excluded from net income but are included in the calculation of earnings per share. Strong performance in Q1 2026 increased
the value of these ownership interests which had a dilutive effect on earnings per share. Loss per share of $0.12 for Q1 2026, compared to earnings per share of $0.80 in the prior-year period.
|
|
•
|
Operating results (1), a non-GAAP measure, of $7.0 million for Q1 2026 compared to
$7.3 million for Q1 2025, with operating results per share of $0.46 compared to $0.48 over the same periods, respectively.
|
|
•
|
Adjusted EBITDA (1), a non-GAAP measure, of $20.2 million for Q1 2026 compared to
$19.5 million for Q1 2025, a $0.7 million increase.
|
Chris Reading, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, “I want to begin by thanking our partners
and clinical teams for their tremendous care and their continued efforts on behalf of our patients and across several important initiatives this year. These include a partial virtualization of our front desk; company-wide rollout of
ambient-listening technology to improve documentation efficiency and allow for more patient-centric interaction; remote therapeutic monitoring for our traditional Medicare patients to facilitate greater home program adherence positively impacting
care and outcomes; and targeted cash-based program expansion across our top partnerships impacting care and outcomes as well as overall margin. These initiatives, along with our very important hospital alliance focus, will bear fruit particularly in
the second half of the year.”
Mr. Reading continued “Additionally, and importantly, we recently completed our expanded and upgraded
credit facility which gives us tremendous capacity for continued growth in physical therapy, industrial injury prevention, and our new and very focused efforts to expand our hospital alliance footprint. In this first quarter we had very positive
announcements across all of those initiatives with more good things to come.”

BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW
FULL YEAR EARNINGS GUIDANCE
Management reaffirmed the Company’s full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $102.0 million to $106.0 million, which includes the partial year impact of two previously announced hospital affiliations and the January 1, 2026 Medicare rate increase.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
TO THE MOST DIRECTLY COMPARABLE GAAP MEASURE
The following tables provide details of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation and reconcile net income attributable to
USPH shareholders calculated in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results. The tables also provide a reconciliation of additional non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure. Management believes providing
Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results to investors is useful for comparing the Company's period-to-period results as well as for comparing with other similar businesses since most do not have redeemable instruments and therefore have
different equity structures. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results, which eliminate certain items described above that can be subject to volatility and unusual costs, as the principal measures to evaluate and monitor
financial performance period over period.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income attributable to USPH shareholders before interest income, interest
expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, changes in revaluation of put-right liability, equity-based awards compensation expense, clinic closure costs, business acquisition
related costs, costs related to a one-time financial and human resources systems upgrade, loss on sale of a partnership and other income and related portions for non-controlling interests.
Operating Results, a non-GAAP measure, equals net income attributable to USPH shareholders less changes in revaluation of a put-right
liability, clinic closure costs, loss on sale of a partnership, changes in fair value of contingent earn-out consideration, business acquisition related costs, costs related to a one-time financial and human resources systems upgrade and
any allocations to non-controlling interests, all net of taxes. Operating Results per share also excludes the impact of the revaluation of redeemable non-controlling interest and the associated tax impact.
Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Results are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Results and
other non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income attributable to USPH shareholders presented in the consolidated financial statements.

FAQ
How did U.S. Physical Therapy (USPH) perform financially in Q1 2026?
U.S. Physical Therapy reported record Q1 2026 net revenue of $198.3 million, up from $183.8 million a year earlier. Net income attributable to USPH shareholders was $5.0 million, compared with $9.9 million in Q1 2025, reflecting higher non-operating and non-controlling interest impacts.
What adjusted EBITDA did U.S. Physical Therapy (USPH) generate in Q1 2026?
Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2026 was $20.2 million, slightly above $19.5 million in Q1 2025. This non-GAAP measure adds back items such as interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity-based compensation and fair value adjustments to highlight underlying operating performance.
What full year 2026 guidance did U.S. Physical Therapy reaffirm?
Management reaffirmed full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $102.0 million to $106.0 million. This outlook incorporates partial-year contributions from two hospital alliances and the January 1, 2026 Medicare rate increase, with a phased ramp-up beginning in May 2026.
How will the new hospital alliances affect U.S. Physical Therapy’s EBITDA?
Upon full integration, 60 Metro clinics are expected to add at least $12 million in annualized EBITDA to Metro, with about $6 million attributable to USPH. A second partner’s ten clinics are expected to add at least $2 million, with around $1.3 million attributable to USPH based on its ownership stakes.
What dividend did U.S. Physical Therapy declare in this 8-K filing?
The board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.46 per common share. It will be payable on June 12, 2026 to shareholders of record as of May 22, 2026, continuing the company’s pattern of regular cash returns to shareholders.
How many clinics does U.S. Physical Therapy operate after Q1 2026?
As of the end of Q1 2026, U.S. Physical Therapy owned or managed 783 outpatient physical therapy clinics in 44 states. This reflects 13 owned clinic additions and 4 owned clinic closures during the quarter, plus changes in managed clinics shown in the roll-forward table.
