CORECIVIC REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS

PROVIDES 2023 FULL YEAR GUIDANCE

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – February 8, 2023 – CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (the Company) announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022.

Financial Highlights – Full Year 2022

 

   

Total revenue of $1.85 billion

 

   

CoreCivic Safety revenue of $1.68 billion

 

   

CoreCivic Community revenue of $103.3 million

 

   

CoreCivic Properties revenue of $57.9 million

 

   

Net income of $122.3 million

 

   

Net income reflects $54.0 million of special items, including $57.1 million gain on the sale of our McRae Correctional Facility in Georgia, net of taxes, reflected in the third quarter of 2022

 

   

Diluted earnings per share of $1.03

 

   

Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.57

 

   

Normalized FFO per diluted share of $1.39

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA of $315.7 million

Damon T. Hininger, CoreCivic’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to have closed out 2022 with another strong financial performance in a difficult environment, which allowed us to make meaningful progress towards the debt reduction goals we have set. We reduced our outstanding debt balance by over $287 million in 2022, and on February 1, 2023, we repaid in full the $154 million outstanding balance on our 4.625% Senior Notes originally scheduled to mature on May 1, 2023. Since announcing our updated capital allocation strategy in the summer of 2020, we have cut our overall debt in half, or by over $1 billion due to the strong and stable cash flows generated in the business. Having made significant progress on our debt reduction strategy, we began returning capital to shareholders during 2022 through a new share repurchase program. During the year we repurchased 6.6 million shares, representing over 5% of our outstanding shares, at a total cost of $74.5 million.

Hininger continued, “Our full year 2023 financial guidance reflects the positive impact from having substantially completed the transition to the previously announced contract with the state of Arizona at our 3,060-bed La Palma Correctional Center in Arizona, which was disruptive to earnings and cash flow during 2022. However, we expect a challenging labor market to continue in 2023, and we believe it is likely we will see a continuation of occupancy restrictions implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly by our federal government partners, at least for a meaningful portion of the year. We have increased staffing levels at certain facilities in anticipation of increased occupancy levels, and we are well positioned to accept additional residential populations as pandemic-related occupancy restrictions are removed. Despite these challenges, we are pleased that our 2023 financial guidance reflects normalized per share growth compared with 2022.”

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results Compared With Fourth Quarter 2021

Net income in the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $24.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared with net income in the fourth quarter of 2021 of $28.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share. Adjusted for special items, adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $25.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share (Adjusted Diluted EPS), compared with adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of 2021 of $32.6 million, or $0.27 per diluted share. Special items for each period are presented in detail in the calculation of Adjusted Diluted EPS in the Supplemental Financial Information following the financial statements presented herein.

The decline in adjusted per share amounts was primarily the result of transitioning to the previously announced contract with the state of Arizona at our 3,060-bed La Palma Correctional Center in Arizona, the expiration of our contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at the McRae Correctional Facility on November 30, 2022, and ongoing labor market pressures, including temporary incentives and above average wage inflation. We substantially completed the transition at the La Palma facility by the end of 2022. Despite the expiration of the contract with the BOP, our renewal rate on owned and controlled facilities remains high at 95% over the previous five years. We believe our renewal rate on existing contracts remains high due to a variety of reasons including the aged and constrained supply of available beds within the U.S. correctional system, our ownership of the majority of the beds we operate, the value our government partners place in the wide range of recidivism-reducing programs we offer to those in our care, and the cost effectiveness of the services we provide.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was $87.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with $97.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $87.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with $103.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA decreased from the prior year quarter primarily due to the previously mentioned transition of offender populations at our La Palma Correctional Center, which resulted in a reduction in EBITDA of $9.1 million, and the expiration of our BOP contract at the McRae Correctional Facility in November 2022, which resulted in a reduction in EBITDA of $2.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2021 to the fourth quarter of 2022. We achieved higher

staffing levels and incurred more in temporary incentive expenses than in the prior year quarter to attract and retain facility staff in the challenging labor market. We also incurred higher travel related expenses in order to augment staffing levels at multiple facilities. We believe these investments in staffing are preparing us to manage the increased number of residents we anticipate at our facilities once the remaining occupancy restrictions attributable to COVID-19 are removed. These reductions in EBITDA were partially offset by employee retention credits available under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act.

Funds From Operations (FFO) was $48.8 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $54.7 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2021. Normalized FFO, which excludes special items, was $49.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with $57.8 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2021. Normalized FFO was impacted by the same factors that affected Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share amounts, are measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Please refer to the Supplemental Financial Information and the note following the financial statements herein for further discussion and reconciliations of these measures to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Asset Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale

In December 2022, we completed the sale of our idled Oklahoma City Transitional Center, reported in our Community segment. The sale of this facility to a third party generated net sales proceeds of $0.9 million. The buyer intends to redevelop the property for an alternative use.

As of December 31, 2022, we held for sale two actively leased residential reentry facilities located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and reported in our Properties segment, and an idle residential reentry facility located in Denver, Colorado and reported in our Community segment. The facility in Denver is under a Purchase and Sale Agreement for a gross sales price of $1.3 million, which is expected to close in the second quarter of 2023. Based on the agreement, in the fourth quarter of 2022, we recognized an impairment charge of $0.7 million, based on its estimated net realizable value less costs to sell. Several third parties have expressed an interest in purchasing the facilities in Philadelphia, and we believe we will be able to sell these properties within the next twelve months. However, we have not yet reached a definitive agreement to sell the properties and can provide no assurance that we will complete the sale of either of these properties, which have a net book value of $5.8 million.

As previously disclosed, during the second quarter of 2022, we entered into an agreement with the Georgia Building Authority (GBA) to sell our 1,978-bed McRae Correctional Facility located in McRae, Georgia, and reported in our Safety segment, for a sale price of $130.0 million, generating net proceeds of $129.7 million. The sale was completed on August 9, 2022, resulting in a gain on sale of $77.5 million after transaction costs. We had a management contract with the BOP at the McRae facility that expired on November 30, 2022, and was not renewed. In connection with the


Fourth Quarter & Full Year 2022 Financial Results

Page 4

 

sale, we entered into an agreement with the GBA to lease the facility through November 30, 2022, to allow us to fulfill our contractual obligations to the BOP. The McRae Correctional Facility converted to a facility owned and operated by the state of Georgia upon the termination of our lease with the GBA.

During the first three quarters of 2022, we also completed the sales of two additional residential reentry facilities located in California reported in our Properties segment, two residential reentry facilities located in Denver, Colorado and reported in our Community segment, and two parcels of undeveloped land located in California. We generated aggregate net proceeds from the sales of these real estate assets of $26.4 million.

Debt Repayments

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we reduced our debt balance by $287.4 million, or by $137.2 million net of the change in cash. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we purchased $12.8 million principal amount of our 4.625% Senior Notes in open market purchases at a discount to par, reducing the outstanding balance of the 4.625% Senior Notes to $153.8 million. The 4.625% Senior Notes were scheduled to mature on May 1, 2023. We repaid in full the outstanding principal balance of the 4.625% Senior Notes on February 1, 2023, using available cash on hand and capacity under our $250.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we also purchased $27.4 million principal amount of our 8.25% Senior Notes in open market purchases at a discount to par, reducing the outstanding balance of the 8.25% Senior Notes to $614.1 million. Following the repayment of the outstanding principal balance of the 4.625% Senior Notes on February 1, 2023, we have no other maturities until the 8.25% Senior Notes mature in April 2026.

Share Repurchases

On May 12, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our common stock. On August 2, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized an increase in our share repurchase program of up to an additional $75.0 million in shares of our common stock, or a total of up to $225.0 million. During 2022, we repurchased 6.6 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $74.5 million, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases.

We currently have $140.5 million remaining under the share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors following $10.0 million in additional repurchases so far in 2023. Additional repurchases of common stock will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made at management’s discretion within parameters set by the Board of Directors from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase program has no time limit and does not obligate us to purchase any particular amount of our common stock. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, suspended, increased or decreased by our Board of Directors in its discretion at any time.

NOTE TO SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share metrics are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and are used to review and assess operating performance of the Company and its properties and their management teams. The Company believes that it is useful to provide investors, lenders and security analysts disclosures of its results of operations on the same basis that is used by management.

FFO, in particular, is a widely accepted non-GAAP supplemental measure of performance of real estate companies, grounded in the standards for FFO established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate and impairment of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. As a company with extensive real estate holdings, we believe FFO and FFO per share are important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs and other real estate operating companies, many of which present FFO and FFO per share when reporting results. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and FFO are useful as supplemental measures of performance of the Company’s properties because such measures do not take into account depreciation and amortization, or with respect to EBITDA, the impact of the Company’s tax provisions and financing strategies. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), this accounting presentation assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes at a level rate over time. Because of the unique structure, design and use of the Company’s properties, management believes that assessing performance of the Company’s properties without the impact of depreciation or amortization is useful. The Company may make adjustments to FFO from time to time for certain other income and expenses that it considers non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, even though such items may require cash settlement, because such items do not reflect a necessary or ordinary component of the ongoing operations of the Company. Normalized FFO excludes the effects of such items. The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income by adding to GAAP Net Income expenses associated with the Company’s debt repayments and refinancing transactions, and certain impairments and other charges that the Company believes are unusual or non-recurring to provide an alternative measure of comparing operating performance for the periods presented.

Other companies may calculate Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO differently than the Company does, or adjust for other items, and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share measures are not measures of performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. This data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
