Medical Facilities Corp T.DR

Alternate Symbol(s):  MFCSF

Medical Facilities Corporation is a Canada-based company, which owns a portfolio of surgical facilities in the United States. The Company owns interest in four specialty surgical hospitals (SSHs) located in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and South Dakota, and one ambulatory surgery centers (ASC) located in California. ASCs are specialized surgical centers that only provide outpatient procedures, whereas SSHs are licensed for both inpatient and outpatient surgeries. The SSHs and ASC provide facilities, including staffing, surgical materials and supplies, and other support necessary for scheduled surgical, pain management, imaging, and diagnostic procedures and derive their revenue primarily from the fees charged for the use of these facilities. In addition, two of the SSHs provide urgent care services. The facilities focus on a limited number of clinical specialties such as orthopedics, neurosurgery, pain management and other non-emergency elective procedures.

I'm still working through my DD, but here is one problem: facility-level operating margin appears to be sliding. It's a seasonal business, so I'm looking at Q2 revenue-weighted average facility-level operating margin:

2015/Q2     21.70%
2016/Q2     17.94%
2017/Q2     16.85%

I like that they've reduced long-term debt. Lack of equity growth presents a possible problem, but I have more work to do on that item.

I noticed another thing here,...there is a big gap between the Basic EPS (46c) and the Diluted EPS (18c). Why is that ? In the previous corresponding period, both the Basic and the Diluted EPS showed a loss of 18c consistently. I'm happy for the positive EPS this time, and like I mentioned in this thread earlier, I suspect there will be a slight positive in the EPS this time, but did not imagine it to be at this level,...
