All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars unless indicated otherwise.
Q3 2020 Summary
(For continuing operations1 compared to Q3 2019)
- Facility service revenue totaled $96.3 million;
- Total revenue and other income increased 2.4% to $98.8 million, including $2.5 million of government stimulus income recognized by the surgical hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers ("ASC");
- Income from operations increased to $17.6 million;
- Adjusted EBITDA2 increased 9.6% to $24.6 million; and

"We are pleased to report that case volumes continued to rebound in the third quarter despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic," said Robert O. Horrar, President and CEO of Medical Facilities. "Total revenue and other income for the quarter was impacted by favourable shifts in case and payor mix and government stimulus income, which were partly offset by a decline in case volumes year-over-year. We are also pleased with the progress of St. Luke's ASC, which is officially opened and operational, and is ramping up as expected."
"While uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 remains, we maintain our focus on growing MFC and seeking opportunities to execute our ASC platform growth strategy," concluded Mr. Horrar.
