“The fourth quarter capped off a solid year for Tivity Health as we experienced growth in all three lines of business,” said Donato Tramuto, Tivity Health’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our growth in eligible members for SilverSneakers® outpaced the growth in the overall Medicare Advantage market as we continued to increase our market share and our strategy has begun to show early signs of success with member awareness exceeding our expectations. We are also pleased with another strong growth year in Prime® Fitness as it continues to be our fastest growing line of business.

“In addition to the strong operational and financial results throughout the year, 2017 also marked the 25th anniversary of SilverSneakers. Our longevity in the market stands as a testament to the power of our brand and the impact on the lives of our members. I’m incredibly proud of our results and of the effort of all our hardworking colleagues here at Tivity Health.”

Adam Holland, Tivity Health’s Chief Financial Officer added, “During the fourth quarter, we were able to strengthen our balance sheet by paying down debt with our free cash flow. We're well positioned to drive future growth and I believe our initial 2018 outlook demonstrates the power of our business model against the backdrop of strong market demographics.”

During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company initiated and completed a restructuring plan aimed at streamlining certain operations support functions.  The Company incurred approximately $2.6 million of pre-tax restructuring charges during the fourth quarter and does not expect additional material charges under this plan.  The Company anticipates annualized savings in 2018 of approximately $4 million from this restructuring.  

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was signed into law during the fourth quarter, and the Company incurred a non-cash charge of $7.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, related to both the re-measurement of its deferred tax assets to the lower tax rate and the requirement under provisions of the new law to recalculate the impact of repatriation of its foreign earnings, which occurred earlier in the year.

Tivity Health announced today its financial guidance for 2018, which includes:

• Revenues in a range of $607 million to $625 million;
• EBITDA in a range of $139 million to $144 million; and
• Earnings per diluted share in a range of $2.12 to $2.20.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company excludes business separation costs and restructuring charges from this measure because of its comparability to the Company's historical operating results.  The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results and guidance on the same basis as that used by management.  You should not consider adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in isolation or as a substitute for income from continuing operations determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

(2) Business separation costs consists of pre-tax charges of $1,477,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 related to the separation of the Network Solutions business from the disposed total population health services (“TPHS”) business. 

(3) Restructuring charges consists of pre-tax charges of $2,554,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 related to a restructuring to streamline our operations support and $3,763,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 associated with the 2016 restructuring of corporate support infrastructure. 

(4) EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results and guidance on the same basis as that used by management.  You should not consider EBITDA from continuing operations in isolation or as a substitute for income from continuing operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(5) Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company excludes EPS (loss) attributable to income tax expense related to tax reform, a depreciation adjustment, business separation costs, and restructuring charges from this measure because of its comparability to the Company's historical operating results.  The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results on the same basis as that used by management.  You should not consider adjusted EPS in isolation or as a substitute for EPS determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(6) EPS (loss) attributable to income tax expense related to tax reform is due to the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Job Act of 2017, which resulted in incremental tax expense of $7,442,000 during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 related to both the re-measurement of our deferred tax assets to the lower tax rate and the requirement to recalculate the impact of repatriation of our foreign earnings, which occurred earlier in the year.

(7) EPS attributable to depreciation adjustment consists of a pre-tax adjustment of $2,174,000 for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 related to an adjustment in the depreciation expense allocated between continuing and discontinued operations based on having completed our asset separation analysis during the fourth quarter of 2016.  The tax rate applied to this expense was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate.  

(8) EPS (loss) attributable to business separation costs consists of pre-tax charges of $1,477,000 and $2,189,000 for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, and $1,639,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017.  These costs related to the separation of the Network Solutions business from the disposed TPHS business.  The tax rate applied to these costs was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate. 

(9) EPS (loss) attributable to restructuring charges consists of pre-tax charges of $3,763,000 and $4,933,000 for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, and $2,554,000 and $3,223,000 for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, respectively.  The charges of $2,554,000 related to a restructuring to streamline our operations support during the fourth quarter of 2017, while all remaining restructuring charges disclosed in the table were associated with a restructuring of corporate support infrastructure that began in 2016 and was completed during the first quarter of 2017.  The tax rate applied to these restructuring charges was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate.

Income from continuing operations, GAAP basis	$	8,624		$	12,125

(10) Adjusted income from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company excludes net income/loss attributable to income tax expense related to tax reform, a depreciation adjustment, business separation costs, and restructuring charges from this measure because of its comparability to the Company's historical operating results.  The Company believes it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of its operating results on the same basis as that used by management.  You should not consider adjusted income from continuing operations in isolation or as a substitute for income from continuing operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 

(11) Net loss attributable to income tax expense related to tax reform is due to the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Job Act of 2017, which resulted in incremental tax expense of $7,442,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2017 related to both the re-measurement of our deferred tax assets to the lower tax rate and the requirement to recalculate the impact of repatriation of our foreign earnings, which occurred earlier in the year.

(12) Net income attributable to depreciation adjustment consists of a pre-tax adjustment of $2,174,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 related to an adjustment in the depreciation expense allocated between continuing and discontinued operations based on having completed our asset separation analysis during the fourth quarter of 2016.  The tax rate applied to this expense was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax.

(13) Net loss attributable to business separation costs consists of pre-tax charges of $1,477,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 related to the separation of the Network Solutions business from the disposed TPHS business.  The tax rate applied to these costs was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate. 

(14) Net loss attributable to restructuring charges consists of pre-tax charges of $2,554,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2017 associated with a restructuring begun and completed during the fourth quarter of 2017 to streamline our operations support and pre-tax charges of $3,763,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2016 associated with the 2016 restructuring of corporate support infrastructure.  The tax rate applied to these restructuring charges was 39.55%, which represented the combined estimated U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate.
