1. Executive Overview
This report presents the analytical review of the ADHS Corporate Operating Model for the month ended February 28, 2026. It covers consolidated financial performance across all 14 entities, data integrity assessment, month-over-month variance analysis (Feb-26 vs Jan-26), and location-level profitability.
ADHS generated $10.69M in consolidated net revenue in February 2026, a marginal 1.3% increase from January ($10.56M). However, operating income declined 67% to $124K (from $378K) as SGA expenses rose 3.8% to $10.57M. The system continues to report negative net income of ($3.53M), driven by $3.42M/month in interest expense, though this improved $257K from January largely due to lower interest charges.
Key Metrics at a Glance
Revenue Composition
The revenue mix remains consistent with prior periods. Personal Injury (PI) net revenue of $5.71M (53.4% of total) is the primary revenue stream, collected at a 24.5% rate against $23.3M gross billed. Commercial Insurance (CI) net revenue of $3.14M (29.4%) reflects a 6.4% gross collection rate against $49.3M gross billed — well below the industry average gross collection rate of 30–40% reported by healthcare RCM benchmarking sources[1][2]. Other revenue of $1.85M (17.3%) includes management fees, rental income, and miscellaneous items.
Profitability Dynamics
The consolidated system is operationally near-breakeven at the operating income line but structurally unprofitable at the net income line due to $3.42M/month in interest expense (primarily from Health System at $1.86M and Care Capital SPE at $1.45M). Depreciation and amortization add a further $214K/month. The interest burden represents 32.0% of net revenue, making sustained profitability unachievable without debt restructuring or significant revenue growth.
Revenue Concentration
River Oaks alone generates 50.4% of consolidated revenue ($5.39M) and effectively all operating profit ($1.62M, 30.1% margin). The next two revenue-generating entities — Cognizant Management ($1.43M) and ASPN ($1.32M) — together account for 25.8%. Advanced Dallas ($1.15M) and Houston East ($991K) are revenue-generating but operate at significant losses. Five entities generate zero revenue but incur combined SGA of $471K/month.
2. Period Comparison — FY2025 vs YTD 2026
Full-year 2025 produced $157.8M in revenue ($13.1M/month average), $15.8M in operating income ($1.3M/month), and $18.6M EBITDA. However, net income was ($20.1M) for the year, reflecting the structural interest burden.
The first two months of 2026 show $21.25M cumulative revenue ($10.63M/month average), running 18.8% below the FY2025 monthly run rate. YTD operating income is $502K and YTD net income is ($7.32M). If current trends continue, the annualized 2026 revenue projection would be approximately $127.6M, a 19.1% decline from FY2025.
The revenue softness is broad-based: both CI and PI gross billings are tracking below FY2025 levels, and collection rates remain compressed. The CI collection rate of 6.3–6.4% in Jan–Feb 2026 is below the FY2025 average of approximately 7.3%.

3. Revenue & Collection Analysis
Consolidated gross billings in February totalled $72.6M ($49.3M CI + $23.3M PI), resulting in net collections of $10.69M — an overall 14.7% blended collection rate. CI collections remain the primary concern at just 6.4% of gross charges — dramatically below the U.S. mean gross collection rate of 30–40%[1][2]. PI collections at 24.5% are also below this benchmark, though the gap is narrower. The typical contractual adjustment rate in healthcare is 60–70%[3], implying providers generally collect 30–40% of billed charges.

4. SGA Expense Variance — Feb vs Jan 2026
Total SGA increased $386K (+3.8%) from $10.18M in January to $10.57M in February. The SGA-to-revenue ratio deteriorated from 96.4% to 98.8%, leaving minimal operating margin.

Location Highlights
River Oaks continues as the anchor, generating $5.39M revenue (+$77K MoM) with a healthy 30.1% operating margin. Op income improved $149K to $1.62M. This entity alone subsidizes the losses of all other locations.
ASPN is the second most profitable entity at $357K op income (27.0% margin), up $10K from January — consistent and well-managed.
Advanced Dallas (ADHC) widened its operating loss to ($1.03M) from ($862K) in January, driven by a $164K increase in operating expenses despite relatively flat revenue (-$16K). The SGA-to-revenue ratio is 189%, indicating that this location's cost base far exceeds its collections.
Houston East (ADHE) posted a modestly worse operating loss of ($417K) vs ($401K) in January. Revenue increased $33K to $991K but was offset by $49K higher expenses. The CI collection rate at 5.6% is the lowest among clinical entities.
Health System saw its operating loss widen significantly to ($326K) from ($203K) in January, a $123K deterioration. With zero revenue and $326K in corporate SGA, plus $1.86M interest expense, this entity requires attention.
6. Recommendations
Based on the analytical review of the February 2026 operating data, the following actions are recommended:
7. Conclusion
ADHS remains operationally near-breakeven at the operating income line, but structurally unprofitable due to the interest expense burden. February showed a mixed picture: revenue edged up 1.3% but operating income declined 67% as SGA costs increased. The consolidated system is heavily reliant on River Oaks for profitability, with Advanced Dallas and Houston East being the primary drags.
The most impactful near-term levers are: (1) improving the CI collection rate, which represents the single largest addressable revenue gap; (2) containing SGA at Advanced Dallas; and (3) pursuing debt restructuring for the Health System and Care Capital SPE facilities. The salaries variance is explained by the Dec-25 accrual reversal and does not represent a structural cost increase. Without progress on the key levers above, the annualized 2026 net loss trajectory of approximately ($42M) will persist.
