Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company's indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, ATI Holdings Acquisition, Inc. and ATI Holdings, LLC. Liquidity and going concern In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205-40, Going Concern , the Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. This evaluation includes considerations related to the covenants contained in the Company’s 2022 Credit Agreement as well as the Company’s liquidity position overall. As detailed in Note 8 - Borrowings , the Company’s 2022 Credit Agreement contains customary covenants and restrictions, including financial and non-financial covenants. The financial covenants require the Company to maintain $30.0 million of minimum liquidity, as defined in the agreement, at each test date through the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, beginning in the second quarter of 2024, the Company must maintain a Secured Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in the agreement, not to exceed 7.00:1.00. The net leverage ratio covenant decreases in the third quarter of 2024 to 6.75:1.00 and further decreases in the first quarter of 2025 to 6.25:1.00, which level remains applicable through maturity. The financial covenants are tested as of each fiscal quarter end for the respective periods. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions would result in an event of default, subject to customary cure periods. In addition, the 2022 Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, reporting and other affirmative covenants and negative covenants, including requirements related to the delivery of independent audit reports without certain going concern qualifications, limitations on indebtedness, liens, investments, negative pledges, dividends, junior debt payments, fundamental changes and asset sales and affiliate transactions. Failure to comply with the 2022 Credit Facility covenants and restrictions, including the provision related to certain going concern qualifications for any fiscal year, including the year ended December 31, 2022, could result in an event of default under the 2022 Credit Facility, subject to customary cure periods. In such an event, all amounts outstanding under the 2022 Credit Facility, together with any accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $83.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and no available capacity under its 2022 revolving credit facility. As measured based on the definitions in the Company’s 2022 Credit Agreement, liquidity was $72.9 million as of December 31, 2022. The Company has negative operating cash flows, operating losses and net losses. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had cash flow used in operating activities of $65.5 million, operating loss of $539.7 million and net loss of $493.0 million. In addition, as of December 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,339.5 million. These results are, in part, due to trends experienced by the Company including a tight labor market for available physical therapy and other healthcare providers in the workforce, visit volume softness, decreases in rate per visit and increases in interest costs. Based on current liquidity and projected cash use, the Company anticipates violation of its $30.0 million minimum liquidity covenant under its 2022 Credit Agreement within the next twelve months. As a result of the above factors, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months following the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2022. Improving operating results and cash flow is dependent upon the Company’s ability to achieve its business plan to increase clinical staffing levels and clinician productivity, control costs and capital expenditures, increase patient visit volumes and referrals and stabilize rate per visit. However, there can be no assurance that it will be successful in any of these respects. If the Company does not complete the Transaction as contemplated by the TSA or otherwise access additional financing, the Company will need to consider other alternatives, including pursuing separate amendments to or waivers of the minimum liquidity covenant, the requirement to deliver audited financial statements without certain going concern qualifications, and other requirements under the 2022 Credit Agreement, as well as raising funds from other sources, obtaining alternate financing, disposal of assets, or pursuing other strategic alternatives to improve its liquidity position and business results. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in completing the Transaction or accessing such alternative options or financing when needed. Failure to do so could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and may lead to events including bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency. In addition, the report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm accompanying the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Absent an amendment or waiver, the 2022 Credit Agreement provides that the receipt of a report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm containing an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern could be an event of default, subject to certain exceptions. Pursuant to the TSA, the First Lien Lenders have agreed that, prior to the Outside Closing Date, they will forbear in the exercise of any rights, remedies, powers, privileges and defenses under the 2022 Credit Agreement arising on account of a default, alleged default or event of default (if any) resulting from the going concern explanatory paragraph in the report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm accompanying the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. However, if the transactions contemplated by the TSA are not consummated on its terms or at all, the First Lien Lenders could claim that a default or event of default has occurred under the 2022 Credit Agreement. If such claim is not waived by the First Lien Lenders and the Company is unsuccessful in disputing any such claims (including with respect to the applicability of one of the enumerated exceptions to the 2022 Credit Agreement requirement), the Company could be considered to have an event of default after the expiration of the applicable cure periods. In such event, all amounts outstanding under the 2022 Credit Facility, together with any accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable and could be reclassified to current in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the period. A default on our obligations and an acceleration of our indebtedness by our lenders would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and may lead to events including bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency. On March 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Transaction Support Agreement (the “TSA”) with certain of its first lien lenders under the 2022 Credit Agreement (the "First Lien Lenders"), the administrative agent under the 2022 Credit Agreement, holders of its Series A Senior Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Equityholders") and holders of the majority of its common stock (together with the First Lien Lenders and the Preferred Equityholders, the “Parties”), setting forth the principal terms of a comprehensive transaction to enhance the Company's liquidity (the "Transaction"). Pursuant to the TSA, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Parties have agreed to support, act in good faith and take all steps reasonably necessary and desirable to consummate the transactions referenced therein by June 15, 2023 (the “Outside Closing Date”). The TSA contemplates, among other things, (i) a delayed draw new money financing, available under certain circumstances until the 18 month anniversary of the closing date of the transactions, in an aggregate principal amount equal to $25.0 million in the form of new second lien PIK exchangeable notes (“Second Lien PIK Exchangeable Notes”), (ii) exchange of $100.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of the term loans under the 2022 Credit Facility held by certain of the Preferred Equityholders for Second Lien PIK Exchangeable Notes, (iii) a reduction of the thresholds applicable to the minimum liquidity financial covenant under the 2022 Credit Agreement for certain periods, (iv) a waiver of the requirement to comply with the Secured Net Leverage Ratio financial covenant under the 2022 Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024 and a modification of the levels and certain component definitions applicable thereto in the fiscal quarters ending after December 31, 2024, (v) waiver of the requirement for the Company to deliver audited financial statements without certain going concern qualifications for the years ended December 31, 2022, December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2024, (vi) an increase in the interest rate payable on the existing term loans and revolving loans until the achievement of a specified financial metric and (vii) board representation and observer rights, and other changes to the governance of the Company. The Second Lien PIK Exchangeable Notes would be exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock of the Company at a fixed price of $0.25, and the holders thereof would have the right to vote on corporate matters on an as-exchanged basis. The TSA contains certain representations, warranties and other agreements by the Company and Parties. In accordance with the TSA, the First Lien Lenders agreed that, prior to the Outside Closing Date, they will forbear in the exercise of any rights, remedies, powers, privileges and defenses under the 2022 Credit Agreement arising on account of an alleged default or event of default (if any) resulting from the going concern explanatory paragraph in the independent auditors' report accompanying the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the "Credit Agreement Forbearance"). The Parties' obligations under the TSA are, and the closing of the Transaction is, subject to various customary terms and conditions set forth therein, including the execution and delivery of definitive documentation and approval by the Company's stockholders. There is no assurance that the transactions contemplated by the TSA will be consummated on the terms as described above, on a timely basis or at all. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within twelve months after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest, and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation, and net earnings are reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Variable interest entities The Company consolidates all variable interest entities where the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the entity. The Company may change the original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual agreements. The Company has an investment in RSFH-ATI Physical Therapy, LLC ("RSFH") that qualifies as a VIE. Based on the provisions of the RSFH agreement, the Company manages the entity and handles all day-to-day operating decisions in exchange for management fees and may receive distributions proportionate with its level of ownership. Accordingly, the Company has the decision-making power over the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the entity. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, total assets of RSFH were $10.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively, and total liabilities were $5.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively. In general, the assets are available primarily for the settlement of obligations of RSFH. Use of estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The effect of any change in estimates will be recognized in the current period of the change. Segment reporting The Company reports segment information based on the management approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. All of the Company’s operations are conducted within the United States. Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources. We operate our business as one operating segment and therefore we have one reportable segment. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when issued. Restricted cash that was included within cash and cash equivalents as presented within our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and our consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $0.8 million. Accounts receivable The Company's accounts receivable are reported net of contractual adjustments and allowances for doubtful accounts. The majority of accounts receivable are due from commercial insurance companies, workers' compensation plans, auto personal injury claims and government health programs, such as Medicare or Medicaid. The Company reports accounts receivable at an amount equal to the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for providing healthcare services to its patients. Allowance for doubtful accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on estimates of losses related to receivable balances. The risk of collection varies based upon the service, the payor class and the patient’s ability to pay the amounts not reimbursed by the payor. The Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon several factors, including the age of the outstanding receivables, the historical experience of collections, the impact of economic conditions and, in some cases, evaluating specific customer accounts for the ability to pay. Management judgment is used to assess the collectability of accounts and the ability of the Company’s customers to pay. The provision for doubtful accounts is included in cost of services in the consolidated statements of operations. When it is determined that a customer account is uncollectible, that balance is written off against the existing allowance. Concentrations of business risk The Company provides physical therapy services to a large number of patients who participate in government healthcare programs, resulting in a customer concentration relating to Medicare and Medicaid’s service reimbursement programs. The Company believes that the concentration of credit risk with respect to other patient accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of patients that make up the Company’s patient base and the dispersion across many different insurance companies, preferred provider organizations and individuals. Net patient revenue Net patient revenue consists of revenue for physical therapy services. Net patient revenue is recognized at an amount equal to the consideration the Company expects to receive from third-party payors, patients and others for services rendered when the performance obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied. There is an implied contract between the Company and the patient upon each patient visit resulting in the Company’s patient service performance obligation. Generally, the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time, as each service provided is distinct and future services rendered are not dependent on previously rendered services. The Company has separate contractual agreements with third-party payors (e.g., insurers, managed care programs, government programs, workers' compensation) that provide for payments to the Company at amounts different from its established rates. While these agreements are not considered contracts with the customer, they are used for determining the transaction price for services provided to the patients covered by the third-party payors. The payor contracts do not indicate performance obligations of the Company but indicate reimbursement rates for patients who are covered by those payors when the services are provided. To determine the transaction price associated with the implied contract, the Company includes the estimated effects of any variable consideration, such as contractual allowances and implicit price concessions. When the Company has contracts with negotiated prices for services provided (contracted payors), the Company considers the contractual rates when recording revenue and adjusts for any variable consideration to the transaction price to arrive at revenue. Variable consideration is estimated using a portfolio approach that incorporates whether or not the Company has historical differences from negotiated rates due to non-compliance with contract provisions. Historical results indicate that it is probable that negotiated prices less variable consideration will be realized; therefore, this amount is deemed the transaction price and recorded as revenue. The Company records an estimated provision for doubtful accounts based on historical collections for claims with similar characteristics, such as location of service and type of third-party payor, at the time of recognition. Any subsequent impairment of the related receivable is recorded as provision for doubtful accounts. For non-contracted payors, the Company determines the transaction price by applying established rates to the services provided and adjusting for contractual allowances provided to third-party payors and implicit price concessions. The Company estimates the contractual allowances and implicit price concessions using a portfolio approach based on historical collections for claims with similar characteristics, such as location of service and type of third-party payor, in relation to established rates, because the Company does not have a contract with the underlying payor. Any subsequent changes in estimate on the realization of the receivable is recorded as a revenue adjustment. Management believes that calculating at the portfolio level would not differ materially from considering each patient account separately. The Company continually reviews the revenue transaction price estimation process to consider updates to laws and regulations and changes in third-party payor contractual terms that result from contract renegotiations and renewals. Due to complexities involved in determining amounts ultimately due under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors and government entities, which are often subject to interpretation, the Company may receive reimbursement for healthcare services that is different from the estimates, and such differences could be material. Other revenue Revenue from the ATI Worksite Solutions business is derived from on-site services provided to clients’ employees including injury prevention, rehabilitation, ergonomic assessments and performance optimization. Revenue is determined based on the number of hours and respective rate for services provided. Revenues from Management Service Agreements (“MSA”) are derived from contractual arrangements whereby the Company manages a non-controlled clinic or clinics for third-party owners. The Company does not have any ownership interest in these clinics. Typically, revenue is determined based on the number of visits conducted at the clinic and recognized when services are performed. Costs, primarily salaries for the Company’s employees, are recorded when incurred. Other revenue includes physical or occupational therapy services and athletic training provided on-site, such as at schools and industrial worksites. Contract terms and rates are agreed to in advance between the Company and the third-parties. Services are typically performed over the contract period, and revenue is recorded in accordance with the contract terms. If the services are paid in advance, revenue is deferred and recognized as the services are performed. Property and equipment Property and equipment acquired is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, except during an acquisition of a business, in which case the assets are initially recorded at fair value. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and is provided in amounts sufficient to attribute the cost of depreciable assets to operations over the estimated useful lives. The approximate useful life of each class of property and equipment is as follows: Equipment 3 - 5 years Furniture & fixtures 5 - 7 years Automobiles 3 - 5 years Software 3 - 5 years Buildings 40 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of lease term or estimated useful lives of the assets (generally 5 - 15 years) Major repairs that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized to the property and equipment account. Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to rent, clinic supplies, contract labor and other expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Gains or losses associated with property and equipment retired or sold are included in earnings. Computer software is included in property and equipment and consists of purchased software and internally developed software. The Company capitalizes application-stage development costs for significant internally developed software projects. Once the software is ready for its intended use, these costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life. Costs recognized in the preliminary project phase and the post-implementation phase, as well as maintenance and training costs, are expensed as incurred. Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. If the undiscounted cash flows related to the long-lived asset or asset group are not sufficient to recover the remaining carrying value of such asset or asset group, an impairment charge is recognized for the excess carrying amount over the fair value of the asset or asset group. The Company noted triggering events during 2022 which resulted in the recording of impairment losses, which were not material. The Company did not note any triggering events during 2021 or 2020 that resulted in the recording of an impairment loss. Goodwill and intangible assets Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company accounts for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other , which requires the Company to test goodwill and other indefinite-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. The Company noted triggering events during 2021 and 2022 which resulted in the recording of impairment losses. The Company did not note any triggering events during 2020 that resulted in the recording of an impairment loss. Refer to Note 5 - Goodwill, Trade Name and Other Intangible Assets for further details. Due to the current economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, rising interest rates, inflation and other macroeconomic factors, the Company will continue to review the carrying amounts of goodwill and indefinite-lived assets for potential triggering events. The cost of acquired businesses is allocated first to its identifiable assets, both tangible and intangible, based on estimated fair values. Costs allocated to finite-lived identifiable intangible assets are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, is recorded as goodwill. The approximate useful life of each class of intangible asset is as follows: ATI Physical Therapy trade name/trademark Indefinite Non-compete agreements 2 - 5 years Other intangible assets 15 years Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but must be reviewed at least annually for impairment. If the impairment test indicates that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a goodwill impairment loss should be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in an amount equal to the excess carrying value over fair value. If the impairment test indicates that the carrying value of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, then an impairment loss should be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in an amount equal to the excess carrying value over fair value. Fair value is determined using valuation techniques based on estimates, judgments and assumptions the Company believes are appropriate in the circumstances. The Company completed the interim and annual impairment analyses of goodwill as of March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022 by estimating its fair value using an average of a discounted cash flow analysis and comparable public company analysis. The key assumptions associated with determining the estimated fair value include projected revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, the terminal growth rate, the discount rate and relevant market multiples. The Company completed the interim and annual impairment analyses of the indefinite-lived intangible asset as of March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022 by estimating its fair value using the relief from royalty method. The key assumptions associated with determining the estimated fair value include projected revenue growth rates, the royalty rate, the discount rate and the terminal growth rate. Deferred financing costs Original debt issuance discounts and costs incurred related to debt financing are recorded as a reduction to debt and amortized ratably over the term of the related debt agreement, using the effective interest method. Deferred financing costs related to revolving credit facilities are recognized as assets and amortized ratably over the term of the related agreement using the effective interest method. Deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized amortization of deferred debt issuance costs of $1.7 million, $2.3 million and $3.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company recognized amortization of original debt issuance discounts of $1.2 million, $1.0 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Preferred stock Preferred stock is classified as debt, equity or mezzanine equity based on its redemption features. Preferred stock with redemption features outside of the control of the issuer, such as contingent redemption features, is classified as mezzanine equity. Preferred stock with mandatory redemption features is classified as debt. Preferred stock with no redemption features, or redemption features over which the issuer has control, is classified as equity. The Company has preferred stock that is classified as mezzanine equity in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 11 - Mezzanine and Stockholders' Equity for more information about the Company’s outstanding Series A Senior Preferred Stock. The Company had preferred stock that was classified as debt (redeemable preferred stock) in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, prior to its redemption as part of the Business Combination. Refer to Note 12 - Wilco Holdco Redeemable Preferred Stock for more information about the Company’s previously outstanding preferred stock. Treasury stock Treasury stock amounts are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent reissuance of shares are credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method. Warrant liability The Company accounts for its outstanding Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts on an Entity’s Own Equity , and determined that the IPO Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder. As such, each IPO Warrant must be recorded as a liability and is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value are recognized in change in fair value of warrant liability in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Contingent common shares liability The Company accounts for its potential Earnout Shares and Vesting Shares as a liability in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity , and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Non-controlling interests in consolidated affiliates The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of less-than-100%-owned affiliates where the Company has a controlling financial investment. The Company has separately reflected net (loss) income attributable to the non-controlling interests in net (loss) income in the consolidated statements of operations. Fair value of financial instruments The Company determines fair value measurements used in its consolidated financial statements based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants exclusive of any transaction costs, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market at the measurement date. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below with Level 1 having the highest priority and Level 3 having the lowest. • Level 1: Observable inputs, which include unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. • Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such |
