HealthSouth Continues Discussions With Lenders And Noteholders
Thursday May 1, 8:58 am ET
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- HealthSouth Corporation (OTC Pink Sheets: HLSH - News) announced today that it remains in discussions with the lenders under its credit facility and representatives of its senior noteholders and certain of its subordinated indebtedness, even though its previously disclosed forbearance agreement with its credit facility lenders has now expired and it has failed to make required interest payments on any of its outstanding indebtedness beyond applicable grace periods. HealthSouth also said that it had determined to terminate the remaining unavailable commitments under its credit facility to avoid incurring additional commitment fees. Based on its regular and continuing discussions, HealthSouth believes that its lenders and noteholders are unlikely to initiate legal action against the Company at this time and will continue to work with the Company while PricewaterhouseCoopers and Alvarez & Marsal complete their review of HealthSouth's financial condition.
HealthSouth noted that it has not entered into a new forbearance agreement with the lenders under its credit facility or with the holders of any other indebtedness and, therefore, that no assurance could be given that any of its lenders, noteholders or other creditors would not seek to enforce their respective rights.
The Company said that its Board of Directors, together with outside advisors, is working to maintain the stability of its operations and restore HealthSouth's long-term viability.
"The Board of Directors is working diligently to develop a plan for HealthSouth's future," said Interim Chief Executive Officer Robert P. May. "Our operations continue to be strong, and we have ample liquidity for our current operations. HealthSouth's nearly 50,000 employees across the country are focused on the right things -- treating our patients and providing outstanding clinical outcomes. Our Board and new management team will continue to focus HealthSouth's resources on our core business of healthcare."
HealthSouth is the nation's largest provider of outpatient surgery, diagnostic imaging and rehabilitative healthcare services, with nearly 1,700 locations in all 50 states, the United Kingdom, Australia, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia and Canada. HealthSouth can be found on the Web at www.healthsouth.com.
