ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Subsequent to its earnings release for the second quarter of 2014, HealthSouth Corporation (“HealthSouth” or the “Company”) assembled an Investor Reference Book, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8‑K as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Investor Reference Book”). The Investor Reference Book addresses, among other things, an overview of the Company and its industry, a historical perspective of the Company, the Company’s business outlook, the Company’s financial and operational metrics and initiatives, and the Company’s value proposition. The Company’s analysis of the Medicare final rule for fiscal year 2015 for inpatient rehabilitation facilities under the prospective payment system is also included. The Investor Reference Book is available at http://investor.healthsouth.com by clicking on an available link.
The Company reiterates as of the date hereof its guidance for 2014, as previously reported in the press release furnished as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 28, 2014 and during the Company’s earnings conference call held on July 29, 2014.
The Company uses “same-store” comparisons to explain the changes in certain performance metrics and line items within its financial statements. Same-store comparisons are calculated based on hospitals open throughout both the full current periods and throughout the full prior periods presented. These comparisons include the financial results of market consolidation transactions in existing markets, as it is difficult to determine, with precision, the incremental impact of these transactions on the Company’s results of operations.
The information contained herein is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, “Regulation FD Disclosure.” This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial data contained in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 includes non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s leverage ratio and Adjusted EBITDA. The leverage ratio referenced therein is defined as the ratio of consolidated total debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. The Company believes its leverage ratio and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of its ability to service its debt and its ability to make capital expenditures. Additionally, the leverage ratio is a standard measurement used by investors to gauge the creditworthiness of an institution. The Company’s credit agreement also includes a maximum leverage ratio financial covenant which allows the Company to deduct up to $75 million of cash on hand from consolidated total debt. The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and to net cash provided by operating activities in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and below.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis as a liquidity measure. The Company believes this financial measure on a consolidated basis is important in analyzing its liquidity because it is the key component of certain material covenants contained within the Company’s credit agreement, which is discussed in more detail in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and Note 8, Long-term Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10‑K”). These covenants are material terms of the credit agreement. Noncompliance with these financial covenants under the credit agreement—its interest coverage ratio and its leverage ratio—could result in the Company’s lenders requiring the Company to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If the Company anticipated a potential covenant violation, it would seek relief from its lenders, which would have some cost to the Company, and such relief might not be on terms favorable to those in the Company’s existing credit agreement. In addition, if the Company cannot satisfy these financial covenants, it would be prohibited under the credit agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, paying common stock dividends, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA is critical to the Company’s assessment of its liquidity.
In general terms, the credit agreement definition of Adjusted EBITDA, referred to as “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA” there, allows the Company to add back to consolidated net income interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization and then add back to consolidated net income (1) all unusual or nonrecurring items reducing consolidated net income (of which only up to $10 million in a year may be cash expenditures), (2) costs and expenses related to refinancing transactions (in years prior to 2012), (3) any losses from discontinued operations and closed locations, (4) costs and expenses, including legal fees and expert witness fees, incurred with respect to litigation associated with stockholder derivative litigation, including the matters related to Ernst & Young LLP and Richard Scrushy discussed in Note 18, Contingencies and Other Commitments, to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2013 Form 10‑K and Note 10, Contingencies and Other Commitments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements





(Unaudited), of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2014 (the “June 2014 Form 10‑Q”), and (5) share-based compensation expense. The Company also subtracts from consolidated net income all unusual or nonrecurring items to the extent they increase consolidated net income.
Under the credit agreement, the Adjusted EBITDA calculation does not include net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and includes (1) gain or loss on disposal of assets, (2) professional fees unrelated to the stockholder derivative litigation, and (3) unusual or nonrecurring cash expenditures in excess of $10 million. These items may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing performance, so the Adjusted EBITDA calculation presented here includes adjustments for them.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2013 Form 10‑K.
The Company also uses adjusted free cash flow as an analytical indicator to assess its performance. Management believes the presentation of adjusted free cash flow provides investors an efficient means by which they can evaluate the Company’s capacity to reduce debt, pursue development activities, and return capital to its common stockholders. The calculation of adjusted free cash flow and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow are included in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. This measure is not a defined measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. The Company’s definition of adjusted free cash flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary spending. Because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. See the consolidated statements of cash flows included in the 2013 Form 10-K and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows included in the June 2014 Form 10-Q for the GAAP measures of cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.

7 Our Quality • Inpatient rehabilitation hospitals evaluate all patients at admission and upon discharge to determine their functional status. − FIM is the tool for measuring functional independence. • The difference between the FIM scores at admission and upon discharge is called the “FIM Gain.” − The greater the FIM Gain, the greater the patient’s level of independence, the better the patient outcome. 35.5 35.6 36.4 36.8 27.7 27.8 27.9 28.0 24 26 28 30 32 34 36 38 2Q13 3Q13 4Q13 1Q14 FIM Gain (2) is based on the change from admission to discharge of an 18 point assessment. HealthSouth Average UDSMR Average (1) without HealthSouth Source: UDSMR Database (1) Beginning in Q1 2014, we will report quality outcomes without HealthSouth included in the UDSMR Average. As a result, we will be reporting one quarter in arrears. The UDS average is the risk adjusted average of a patient mix pulled from the UDS nation that is similar to the HealthSouth actual patient mix. Cases are placed into CMGs by admitting impairment code, functional status at admission, and sometimes age.

HealthSouth’s unadjusted CMI for 2013 was 1.34 versus 1.29 for the industry as measured by UDSMR, a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry; represents ~70% of the industry, including HealthSouth sites. (4) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by H.R. 8). The reduction was made from whatever level of payment would otherwise have been provided under Medicare law and regulation.

9 CMS Fiscal Year 2015 IRF Final Rule Rate Setting File Analysis Notes: (1) All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2015 IRF Final Rule rate setting file found at http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service- Payment/InpatientRehabFacPPS/Data-Files.html. The data presented was devel- oped entirely by CMS and is based on its definitions which are different in form and substance from the criteria HealthSouth uses for external reporting purposes. Because CMS does not provide its detailed methodology, HealthSouth is not able to reconstruct the CMS projections or the calculation. (2) The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,142 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2015 IRF-PPS Final Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2013 period and may or may not reflect the same HealthSouth hospitals in operation today. The data presented was separated into three categories: Freestanding, Units, and HealthSouth. HealthSouth is a subset of Freestanding and the Total.

IRF-PPS Fiscal Year 2015 Final Rule: Key Provisions 32 The final rule: • Will implement a net 2.2% market basket increase − 2.9% market basket increase − (20 bps) Affordable Care Act reduction − (50 bps) Affordable Care Act productivity reduction • Updates the outlier threshold • Includes a new data collection requirement (beginning on October 1, 2015) that will capture the minutes/mode of therapy. CMS plans to use this data to potentially support future rule making in this area. • CMS made revisions to the list of codes it uses to presumptively test compliance with the 60% Rule. − The rule eliminates an additional 10 post-amputation ICD-9-CM codes used for presumptive testing − Code changes made in FY 2014 and 2015 will become effective for compliance review periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015 • ICD-10-CM cross walk from ICD-9-CM (effective no earlier than October 1, 2015) CMS finalized: • Changes to IRF patient assessment instrument (“PAI”) • Two new quality measures for FY 2017: Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital- Onset Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia Outcome Measure and Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital-Onset Clostridium difficile Infection Outcome Measure • To begin validation audits to ensure completeness and accuracy of submitted quality data. Pricing: • Net pricing impact to HealthSouth expected to be approx. +2.3% for FY 2015 before sequestration (1) • Because of its efficient cost structure, HealthSouth receives very few outlier payments despite higher acuity patients (see slide 31). Update to Payment Rates Coding: • Post-amputation cases represent approx. 0.5% of HealthSouth’s Medicare discharges New Quality Reporting Quality: • HealthSouth will supplement existing quality reporting systems to meet the new requirements. (1) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by H.R. 8).

Improving Medicare Post-Acute Care Transformational Act of 2014 (IMPACT Act of 2014) 33 Take Aways  Comprehensive post- acute care reform bill  Introduced as a bill 06/26/2014  Acknowledges that existing information is not comparable across settings  Requires collection of additional quality and clinical data prior to recommending post acute care payment reforms beginning in FY 2019  Could potentially be voted on in 2014 Summary: H.R.4994 — 113th Congress (2013-2014) Improving Medicare Post-Acute Care Transformation Act of 2014 or the IMPACT Act of 2014 - Amends title XVIII (Medicare) of the Social Security Act to direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to: (1) require post-acute care (PAC) providers to report standardized patient assessment data, data on quality measures, and data on resource use and other measures; (2) require the data to be interoperable to allow for its exchange among PAC and other providers to give them access to longitudinal information so as to facilitate coordinated care and improve Medicare beneficiary outcomes; and (3) modify PAC assessment instruments applicable to PAC providers for the submission of standardized patient assessment data on such providers and enable assessment data comparison across all such providers. Directs the Secretary to: (1) provide confidential feedback reports to PAC providers on their performance with respect to required measures; and (2) arrange for public reporting of PAC provider performance on quality, resource use, and other measures. Directs the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MEDPAC) to: (1) evaluate and recommend to Congress features of PAC payment systems that establish, or a unified PAC payment system that establishes, payment rates according to characteristics of individuals instead of according to the PAC setting where the Medicare beneficiary involved is treated; and (2) recommend to Congress a technical prototype for a PAC prospective payment system. Directs the Secretary to reduce by 2% the update to the market basket percentage for skilled nursing facilities which do not report assessment and quality data. (1) Directs the Secretary to study: (1) the effect of individuals' socioeconomic status on quality, resource use, and other measures for individuals under the Medicare program; and (2) the impact on such measures of specified risk factors. Source: https://beta.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/house-bill/4994 (1) Quality reporting requirements and potential penalties were enabled for IRFs as part of the Healthcare Reform Bill (PPACA). The IMPACT ACT of 2014 requires additional quality and clinical data for IRFs to be subject to the original 2% penalty.


 
Post-Acute Payment Reform – A Complicated Issue 34 (1) Post-Acute Care Payment Reform Demonstration Report to Congress Supplement—Interim Report, May 2011, RTI International 2005: • The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 directed CMS to conduct a study aimed at reforming and harmonizing the disparate methods of paying for services in post-acute settings that could be substituted for one another. • The study required utilization of a uniform patient assessment instrument. • CMS contracted with Research Triangle Institute (RTI) to perform the study. 2012: • RTI released a 353 page report (1). • IRF patients had: ― Greatest self-care change (improvement) ― Greatest change in overall mobility improvement • Data are preliminary and more research is forthcoming. Next steps (1) : • Refinement of existing models • Additional models predicting discharge destinations, mortality, and length of stay • Further work in examining resource intensity, costs, and outcomes to better understand and validate preliminary findings • Further analysis of patient- specific cost of non-therapy ancillary use is needed to understand how their costs vary by patient complexity • Consideration around the desirability and feasibility of a composite cost measure that combines therapy, non-therapy ancillaries, and fixed costs • Additional analysis that attempts to link selected outcomes to payment and other incentive structures


 
Different Levels of Services 35 Rehab Hospital Nursing Home Average length of stay (1) = 12.9 days Covered days per admission (1) = 27.4 days Discharge to community (1) = 69.9% Discharge to community (1) = 30.6% Requirements: Requirements: Rehab hospitals must also satisfy regulatory/policy requirements for hospitals, including Medicare hospital conditions of participation. No similar requirement; Nursing homes are regulated as nursing homes only All patients must be admitted by a rehab physician. No similar requirement Rehab physicians must re-confirm each admission w/n 24 hours. No similar requirement All patients, regardless of diagnoses/condition, must demonstrate need and receive at least three hours of daily intensive therapy. No similar requirement All patients must see a rehabilitation physician “in person” at least three times weekly. No similar requirement; some SNF patients may go a week or longer without seeing a physician, and often a non- rehabilitation physician. Rehab hospitals required to provide 24 hour, 7 days per week nursing care; many nurses are RNs and rehab nurses. No similar requirement Rehab hospitals are required to use a coordinated interdisciplinary team approach led by a rehab physician; includes a rehab nurse, a case manager, and a licensed therapist from each therapy discipline who must meet weekly to evaluate/discuss each patient’s case. No similar requirement; Nursing homes are not required to provide care on a interdisciplinary basis and are not required to hold regular meetings for each patient. Rehab hospitals are required to follow stringent admission/coverage policies and must carefully document justification for each admission; further restricted in number/type of patients (60% Rule) Nursing homes have comparatively few policies governing the number or types of patients they treat.

36 CMS: Inpatient Rehabilitation vs. Skilled Nursing “… MedPAC’s analysis of recent quality measure data related to rehospitalizations suggests that quality of care within SNFs has not been improving … Since 2000, one outcome measure (the risk-adjusted rate of rehospitalization for any of five care-sensitive conditions) exhibited almost no change … … shifting IRF patients toward SNF care does not necessarily improve the quality of care provided to the beneficiaries. A March 2005 report in the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation found that 81.1 percent of IRF patients were discharged to home, compared to 45.5 percent of SNF residents. Additionally, IRF patients appeared to have shorter lengths of stay, averaging approximately a 13-day stay, compared to the average 36-day stay for a SNF resident. Finally, when patients discharged from each setting were reviewed 24 weeks after discharge, IRF patients had consistently better outcomes and displayed a faster rate of recovery.” “Given these findings, we do not agree with those commenters who would assume that shifting patients from the IRF setting to a SNF setting is necessarily more beneficial to the patient or the Medicare Trust Fund.” Source: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-08-08/pdf/2011-19544.pdf

Outstanding Share Summary, Warrant Information, and Conversion Price Notes 49 (1) The Company purchased 9,119,450 common shares in Q1 2013 through a tender offer at a price of $25.50 per share. (2) 10 million warrants (pre-October 2006 reverse split) were issued in connection with a January 2004 loan repaid to Credit Suisse First Boston. The warrants expired on January 16, 2014. The holders of these warrants chose both cash and cashless exercises into shares of our common stock. Prior to warrant expiration, 755,323 shares of our common stock were issued upon exercise between September 30, 2013 and January 16, 2014. (3) The agreement to settle our class action securities litigation received final court approval in January 2007. These shares of common stock and warrants were issued on September 30, 2009. The 5.0 million of common shares are included in the outstanding shares. The warrants to purchase approx. 8.2 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $41.40 (expire January 17, 2017) were not assumed exercised for the dilutive shares outstanding because they were antidilutive in the periods presented. (4) The difference between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to the convertible senior subordinated notes and our convertible perpetual preferred stock (convertible into 8.2 million and 3.2 million common shares, respectively, as of June 30, 2014). a. On November 18, 2013, the Company closed separate, privately negotiated exchanges in which it issued $320 million of 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2043 in exchange for 257,110 shares of the Company’s 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Company recorded approx. $249 million as debt and approx. $71 million as equity. The convertible notes are convertible, at the option of the holders, at any time on or prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 1, 2043 into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of approx. 25.4896 shares per $1,000 in principal amount, which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $39.23 per share, subject to customary antidilution adjustments. The Company has the right to redeem the convertible notes before December 1, 2018 if the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock is at least 120% ($47.08) of the conversion price of the convertible notes for a specified period. On or after December 1, 2018, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or any part of the convertible notes. In either case, the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the convertible notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result of the transaction, the dividend on the convertible perpetual preferred stock was reduced from approx. $5.7 million per quarter to approx. $1.6 million per quarter. b. The 96,245 shares of preferred stock outstanding after the exchange transaction are convertible at the option of the holder, at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $30.01 per share, which is equal to a conversion rate of approx. 33.3222 shares of common stock per share of preferred stock, subject to a specified adjustment. We may at any time cause the shares of preferred stock to be automatically converted into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate then in effect if the closing price of our common stock for 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day before the date we give the notice of forced conversion exceeds 150% ($45.02) of the conversion price of the preferred stock.

(2) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by H.R. 8). The reduction was made from whatever level of payment would otherwise have been provided under Medicare law and regulation. This automatic reduction, known as “sequestration,” will result in a net year-over-year decrease to our net operating revenues of approx. $9 million in 2014 (anniversaried April 1, 2014). (3) HealthSouth believes, based on the Medicare IRF-PPS Rule for FY 2014, it should realize a net increase of approx. 1.95% in FY 2014 before sequestration. (4) HealthSouth believes, based on the Medicare IRF-PPS Final Rule for FY 2015, it should realize a net increase of approx. 2.3% in FY 2015 before sequestration. 2% Sequestration (2)

2014 Guidance - Adjusted EBITDA(1) (as of August 20, 2014) 55 (1) Reconciliation to GAAP provided on slides 62, 96, and 101 Considerations for July through December:  Revenue growth of 6.0% to 7.0% ― Discharge growth between 4.3% and 5.3% (includes 180 bps for Fairlawn) ― Revenue per discharge growth between 2.3% and 2.6% ― Lower outpatient revenues  2013 second half benefited from reductions to self-insurance reserves, including $6.7 million attributable to lowering the Company’s statistical confidence level.  Includes the impact for the ramp up of three de novo hospitals  Bad debt expense of approx. 1.5% of revenue Considerations for full-year 2014:  Adjusted EBITDA impact of approx. $8 million (net of noncontrolling interests) for sequestration (sequestration anniversaried on April 1, 2014)  Increased operating expense of approx. $4 million for continued implementation of CIS and a TeamWorks project to enhance the patient experience $570 million to $580 million (previous guidance $555 million to $565 million)


 
2014 Guidance – EPS (as of August 20, 2014) 56 Actual Low High (In Millions, Except Per Share Data) 2013 Adjusted EBITDA 551.6$ 570$ 580$ Interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees (100.4) Depreciation and amortization (94.7) Stock-based compensation expense (24.8) Other, including noncash loss on disposal and impairment of assets (5.9) 325.8 320 330 Certain Nonrecurring Expenses: Government, class action, and related settlements 23.5 1 Professional fees - accounting, tax, and legal (9.5) Loss on early extinguishment of debt (2.4) - Gain related to consolidation of Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital - 27 Pre-tax income 337.4 341 351 Income tax (12.7) (122) (126) Income from continuing operations (1) 324.7 219 225 Income allocated to participating securities (2) (3.4) (2) (2) Convertible perpetual preferred dividends (2) (21.0) (6) (6) Repurchase of convertible perpetual preferred stock (2) (71.6) - - After-tax convertible debt interest expense (3) - 8 8 Basic shares (2) 88.1 87.0 87.0 Diluted shares (3) 102.1 101.0 101.0 Earnings per share (1) 2.59$ (2)(4) 2.25$ (3) 2.31$ (3) EPS Guidance (7) (7) 2014 (112) (106) (25) Considerations:  Higher depreciation and amortization related to recent capital investments  Higher interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and fees related to the exchange of convertible senior subordinated notes for convertible perpetual preferred stock (3)  Assumes provision for income tax of approx. 36%, which has been reduced primarily as the result of the nontaxable gain related to the Fairlawn transaction (cash taxes expected to be $12 - $17 million for full-year 2014)  Basic and diluted share counts reflect first six months 2014 share repurchase activity. (1) Income from continuing operations attributable to HealthSouth (2) The income allocated to participating securities, the convertible perpetual preferred dividends, and the repurchase premium on preferred stock need to be subtracted from income from continuing operations to calculate basic earnings per share. (3) The interest and amortization related to the convertible senior subordinated notes must be added to income from continuing operations when calculating diluted earnings per share. (4) Diluted earnings per share are the same as basic earnings per share due to antidilution. Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations Attributable to HealthSouth (1) $2.25 to $2.31 (Previous guidance $1.86 to $1.91)


 
Income Tax Considerations GAAP Considerations: •As of 6/30/14, the Company’s federal NOL had a gross balance of approx. $761 million. • The Company has a remaining valuation allowance of approx. $30 million related to state NOLs. Cash Tax Payments: • In 2014, the Company expects to pay approx. $12 million to $17 million of income tax, net of refunds. • HealthSouth is not currently subject to an annual use limitation (“AUL”) under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”). An “ownership change,” as defined by Section 382, could subject the Company to an AUL, which would approximate the value of the Company at the time of the “ownership change” multiplied by the long- term tax exempt rate. 57

Reconciliation Notes for Slides 96-100 and 102 101 1. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s leverage ratio (total consolidated debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP financial measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure and the leverage ratio as a liquidity measure on an ongoing basis. These measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, the reader should be aware that in the future HealthSouth may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth. 2. Per share amounts for each period presented are based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding unless the amounts are antidilutive, in which case the per share amount is calculated using the basic share count after subtracting the quarterly dividend on the convertible perpetual preferred stock, income allocated to participating securities, and the repurchase premium on shares of preferred stock. The difference in shares between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to the convertible senior subordinated notes and our convertible perpetual preferred stock.
