•, Kindred Healthcare
Initiating Credit Coverage with Overweight; Buy on the
8-1/4% Notes
• Kindred Healthcare (KND) is one of the largest healthcare service
providers, with LTM revenues of $6.1 billion. Two things have
historically made it a difficult credit for many investors. First, about
half of its revenues are obtained from long term acute care (LTAC)
hospitals, the reimbursement of which Medicare has long suggested
should change. Second, a sale-leaseback many years ago means KND
has 'double leverage' via unusually high rents.
• We think it's a good time to Overweight Kindred. Most
importantly, it seems KND will not have to contend with any
transformative changes to Medicare reimbursement for the next several
years. Medicare took skilled nursing (SNF) payments down sharply a
year ago, and it has delayed the 25% rule for LTACs an additional year
to 2013, "pending results of an on-going research initiative to re-define
the role of LTCHs in the Medicare program." Visibility of 2013 is
reasonable, helped by preliminary guidance this month. FCF looks to
be adequate, albeit sensitive to small changes in margins.
• Management wants to increase the percent of assets it owns vs.
leases. After some back and forth with Ventas, its largest landlord,
KND now plans to let the leases lapse for 54 SNFs with annual
revenues of approximately $550 million. These are generally older
assets (average age of 41 years). Between below-average margins and
capex required for upkeep the FCF impact of this shrinkage should be
minimal.
• KND 8-1/4% have underperformed since issued in May 2011.
Bonds are a little below par while the market and single-Bs have
tightened 40bps and 60bps, respectively. But now that we have
anniversaried a full year of lower SNF payments and CMS has said it
will review patient criteria, business risk seems much reduced.
• We initiate credit coverage with an Ovenveight rating on Kindred
and a Buy on the 8-1/4% unsecured notes.

Company Background J.P.Morgan
Kindred Healthcare (KND) is a post acute care provider, with LTM revenues of
$6.1 billion and Adjusted EBITDAR of $846 million. KND acquired RehabCare in
June 2011 for $1.3 billion, and obtained 32 long term acute care hospitals, five
inpatient rehabilitation facilities, approximately 1,200 rehabilitation therapy sites of
service, and 102 hospital-based inpatient rehabilitation units.
The company's strategy is focused on the development of cluster market service
offerings across the U.S., providing care across the post acute care spectrum, from
the highest acute (LTACs) to the lowest acute (home health). Today, KND has 15
cluster markets and has three potential cluster markets.

The company has five reportable segments, including the following:
• Hospitals — Consists of the company's long-term acute care hospitals as well as
its inpatient rehabilitation facilities. As of June 30, 2012, the company operated
118 LTAC hospitals and six IRFs in 26 states. In May, the company renewed (for
10 years) a lease (with Yentas) for 10 LTAC hospitals that was set to expire in
April 2013. These LTACs generated $276 million in revenues for FY 2011.
Revenues and EBITDAR (pre-corp) for the last 12 months were $2.9 billion and
$573 million for this division.
• Nursing Center (SNFs) — Consists of the company's transitional care, nursing
and rehabilitation, and skilled nursing centers. As of Lune 30, 2012, the company
operated 224 SNFs, and six assisted living facilities in 27 states. In February, the
company decided not to renew leases for 54 of its SNFs, which generated
approximately $550 million in revenues for FY 2011. The current lease expires in
April 2013 (though the company has provided Yentas additional flexibility with
accelerating the transfer of those assets to new operators). Revenues and
EBITDAR (pre-corp) for the last 12 months were $2.2 billion and $294 million
for this division.

• Rehabilitation (RehabCare) — Consists of the company's contract therapy
services in hospitals and long-term care settings. Revenues and EBITDAR (pre-
corp) for the last 12 months were $969 million and $142 million.
• Home Health and Hospice (PeopleFirst) — Provides the aforementioned
services from 52 locations in eight states under the "PeopleFirst" brand. The
company has been keenly focused on expanding these capabilities. Revenues and
EBITDAR (pre-corp) for the last 12 months were $99 million and $9 million.

History - Separation from Ventas
• 1985: Company was founded as Vencare Inc, an operator of LTACHs.
• 1989: Company went public and changed its name to Vencor, Inc (based on its
early focus on ventilator-dependent patients).
• 1995: Vencor made a $1.6 billion acquisition to acquire Hillhaven Corporation,
an operator of more than 300 SNFs.
• 1997: Balanced Budget Act changes SNF reimbursement from cost-plus to a
prospective payment schedule (PPS) leading to uncertainty in future margins.
• 1998: Vencor split into two companies, in an attempt to unlock shareholder value
by "REIT-ing" the company. Ventas, which took with it the real estate assets,
became a REIT and Vencor become the operating company.
• 1999: The decline in SNF payment rates exceeded management's expectations,
and cost-save opportunities turned out to be lower. Vencor filed for Chapter 1
bankruptcy protection, but got about a 20% rent reduction from VTR to reflect
the non-arm's length nature of the original lease arrangement.
As part of the bankruptcy reorganization, Vencor changed its name to Kindred
Healthcare.
Recent Credit Profile
CMS Rate Reduction for SNFs
In July 2011, CMS announced the final SNF rates for FY 2012, an average 11.1%
reduction for all SNFs. This rate correction was made to address the spike in
reimbursement associated with the introduction of the RUGS-IV (Resource
Utilization Groups Version 4) payment schedule. Under the new payment system, the
government saw a significant increase in reimbursement, due to a shift in utilization
among the therapy modes under the new RUGS-IV that differed significantly from
CMS projections. As a result, CMS decided to implement a correction for fiscal
2012.
Following the cut, KND appeared to have underestimated the impact over the course
of several quarters, increasing the annual revenue impact estimate (to both its SNF
and contract therapy businesses) from the midpoint of $102 million in August 2011
to $150 million in February 2012.

Despite underestimating the revenue headwind, it has been largely offset by cost
savings. While management had first anticipated $55 million in synergies for 2012
associated with the RehabCare acquisition, the company has since realized
$70 million through 2Q12. Further, the company expects to realize $50-$55 million
in cost savings from SG&A reductions over the course of 2012. Management expects
4Q12 to be the first quarter where the full impact of the RehabCare synergies and the
SG&A reductions will be evident.
RehabCare Acquisition
KND acquired RehabCare in June 2011 for $1.3 billion (about 8x pre-synergies
EBITDA), and obtained 32 long term acute care hospitals, five inpatient
rehabilitation facilities, approximately 1,200 rehabilitation therapy sites of service,
and 102 hospital-based inpatient rehabilitation unites. As noted above, while
management had first anticipated $55 million in synergies for 2012 associated with
the RehabCare acquisition, the company has since realized $70 million through
2Q12.
Future Credit Profile
Acquisition Growth
The company plans to "aggressively" expand home health and hospice services in its
cluster markets, services that management sees as "higher-margin growth business."
Today, the business is at about a $200 million run rate (post recent acquisitions
including IntegraCare discussed below). As KND recently indicated, organic growth
rates in home health and hospice are in the 6%-8% range, compared to 2%-3% in
LTACHs, and about flat in SNFs. The higher growth rates, in conjunction with the
company focused on delivering care across the post acute care continuum, will likely
lead to significant expansion in home health and hospice, resulting in a change to the
revenue mix in the future. KND expects to be able to grow the home health and
hospice business organically (including de novos) by approximately 10% a year, with
an additional $75-$100 million of growth per year via acquisitions.
Earlier this month, KND acquired IntegraCare, a home health and hospice provider
predominantly located in northern Texas, for $71 million (I .0x revenues) plus a
possible $4 million cash earn-out. The company generates $71 million in revenues
and EBITDA of approximately $9 million. Management expects additional organic
growth opportunities through expansion into KND's existing Houston market. Paul
Diaz indicated at a recent investor conference that he would like to make five more
deals like IntegraCare over the next 18 months.
LTACHs Get Relief
In August, CMS announced the final rates for LTACHs, resulting in a +1.7% update
for fiscal 2013. KND management indicated that the net effect (before sequestration)
for the company will be a "slight" decline in reimbursement for its facilities.
In any case, these rates and the one-year extension of the 25% rule appeared to
positively surprise many investors, with KND's equity rising 19% on the day after
the proposal in April. Earlier this year, MedPAC recommended no update in rates,
with many investors fearing the possibility of CMS incorporating the full impact of
budget neutrality (3.9% cut that was set to go into effect in calendar year 2013), and
5
EFTA01108674
David Common. CFA North America Credit Research
27 September 2012 J.P.Morgan
the expiration of the very short stay outlier and 25% rule moratoria. Ultimately, the
following is the final update for fiscal 2013:
• 1.3% budget neutrality phase-in (3.75% over three years).
• A payment reduction for very short stay outliers of 0.5%.
• One-year extension of the 25% rule, 'pending results of an on-going research
initiative to re-define the role of LTCHs in the Medicare program."
The announcement of a 1.7% net increase for LTACHs is a win for the industry, as
the outcome was arguably at least a 6% swing, from the context of what the rate
could have been with the full impact of budget neutrality in place. Furthermore, the
delay in the 25% rule is a positive for those with significant exposure to hospital-in-
hospital (HIE) facilities, the full impact of which (while challenging to estimate
given the number of assumptions) could be in the $50 million context for some of the
H1H operators, but the impact to KND would likely be materially lower.
It's also possible that the 25% rule could be eliminated in entirety. CMS states that it
has delayed the rule "pending results of an on-going research initiative to re-define
the role of LTCHs in the Medicare program." We believe that this research initiative
is likely referring to patient criteria. Our sense was that industry-sponsored 'criteria'
had been sufficiently diluted that they came nowhere near CBO's score of the cost to
replace. But even if we don't know the details, the fact that CMS is considering this
is a win in itself for the industry. As discussed at an investor presentation earlier this
month, KND believes the criteria bill will score $500 million to $1 billion in savings.
With the upcoming election taking center stage, we figured 'criteria' would only
have an opportunity for inclusion in Congress's "lame duck" session.
Real Estate — More Ownership, Less Leasing
In recent years, KND has developed a greater interest in developing its asset base,
reacquiring leased assets when compelling value propositions present themselves. As
noted by management this month, the company has purchased previously leased real
estate for approximately $76 million, which includes three LTACHs. Recently,
management has addressed its view on acquiring real estate, which per the figure
below, is the most expensive decision with respect to capital allocation. Given this
and the other materially more accretive opportunities, we would expect the company
to focus less on repurchasing its rented assets and continue to build out its franchises
(especially home health and hospice; see low multiple and high EPS accretion;
further discussed above).

As mentioned above, in February, the company decided not to renew rental contracts
for 54 of its SNFs, which generated approximately $550 million in revenues for FY
2011. The current contract for these facilities expires in April 2013 (though the
company has provided Yentas additional flexibility with accelerating the transfer of
those assets to new operators).
2013 Guidance
Earlier this month, KND reaffirmed 2012 guidance and introduced preliminary
guidance for 2013. Please see the guidance below:

Source: Company repots.
The guidance for 2013 assumes a reduction in revenues due to Medicare
reimbursement rate reductions of $90-$100 million (due to LTACH budget neutrality
phase-in and sequestration). We would expect sequestration and budget neutrality to
result in revenue reductions of approximately $65 million and $30 million,
respectively. Further, it assumes that the results of the 54 SNFs (whose rental
agreements expire in April 2013 and are not being renewed) are classified as
discontinued operations as of January I, 2013.

Conflict of Interest J.P.Morgan
This research contains the views, opinions and recommendations of J.P. Morgan research analysts. J.P. Morgan has adopted
research conflict of interest policies, including prohibitions on non-research personnel influencing the content of research.
Research analysts still may speak to J.P. Morgan trading desk personnel in formulating views, opinions and recommendations.
Trading desks may trade, or have traded, as principal on the basis of the research analysts' views and research. Therefore, this
research may not be independent from the proprietary interests of J.P. Morgan trading desks which may conflict with your
interests. As a general matter, J.P. Morgan and/or its affiliates trade as principal in connection with making markets in fixed
income securities discussed in research reports.
Analyst Certification: The research analyst(s) denoted by an "AC" on the cover of this report certifies (or, where multiple research
analysts are primarily responsible for this report, the research analyst denoted by an "AC" on the cover or within the document
individually certifies, with respect to each security or issuer that the research analyst covers in this research) that ) all of the views
expressed in this report accurately reflect his or her personal views about any and all of the subject securities or issuers; and (2) no part of
any of the research analyst's compensation was, is, or will be directly or indirectly related to the specific recommendations or views

Important Disclosures
Explanation of Credit Research Ratings:
Ratings System: J.P. Morgan uses the following sector/issuer portfolio weightings: Overweight (over the next three months, the
recommended risk position is expected to outperform the relevant index, sector, or benchmark), Neutral (over the next three months, the
recommended risk position is expected to perform in line with the relevant index, sector, or benchmark), and Underweight (over the next
three months, the recommended risk position is expected to underperform the relevant index, sector, or benchmark). J.P. Morgan's
Emerging Market research uses a rating of Marketweight, which is equivalent to a Neutral rating.
Valuation & Methodology: In J.P. Morgan's credit research, we assign a rating to each issuer (Overweight, Underweight or Neutral)
based on our credit view of the issuer and the relative value of its securities, taking into account the ratings assigned to the issuer by credit
rating agencies and the market prices for the issuer's securities. Our credit view of an issuer is based upon our opinion as to whether the
issuer will be able service its debt obligations when they become due and payable. We assess this by analyzing, among other things, the
issuer's credit position using standard credit ratios such as cash flow to debt and fixed charge coverage (including and excluding capital
investment). We also analyze the issuer's ability to generate cash flow by reviewing standard operational measures for comparable
companies in the sector, such as revenue and earnings growth rates, margins, and the composition of the issuer's balance sheet relative to
the operational leverage in its business.
Analysts' Compensation: The research analysts responsible for the preparation of this report receive compensation based upon various
factors, including the quality and accuracy of research, client feedback, competitive factors, and overall firm revenues.
