CORECIVIC REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS

HIGHER OCCUPANCY AND COST MANAGEMENT INITIATIVES DRIVE POSITIVE

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – August 7, 2024 – CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (CoreCivic or the Company) announced today its second quarter 2024 financial results.

Financial Highlights – Second Quarter 2024

 

   

Total revenue of $490.1 million

 

   

CoreCivic Safety revenue of $455.4 million

 

   

CoreCivic Community revenue of $30.3 million

 

   

CoreCivic Properties revenue of $4.4 million

 

   

Net income of $19.0 million; Adjusted Net Income of $21.8 million

 

   

Diluted earnings per share of $0.17; Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.20

 

   

Normalized FFO per diluted share of $0.42, an increase of 27%

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA of $83.9 million, an increase of 16%

Damon T. Hininger, CoreCivic’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “CoreCivic carried its strong operating momentum into the second quarter of 2024. Revenue increased 6% versus the second quarter of 2023, with federal, state, and local revenues all increasing. Occupancy increased to 74.3% from 70.3% in the prior year quarter, and our cost management initiatives are proving effective.”

“In addition to our solid quarterly financial results,” Hininger added, “we are also proud of our continued progress toward our capital structure targets. During the quarter, we repurchased 1.3 million shares of our common stock for a total cost of $20.1 million. Through a thoughtful and disciplined capital allocation strategy, we ended the quarter with leverage, measured as net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, at 2.5x for the trailing twelve months - placing us at the midpoint of our target leverage range of 2.25x to 2.75x that we established in August 2020. Our balance sheet strength and readily available bed capacity position us well to respond to the dynamics of our industry.”

“Finally, we want to recognize the accomplishments of our South Texas Family Residential Center (South Texas Facility) in Dilley, Texas over the past decade. As we previously disclosed, U.S. Immigrations & Customs Enforcement (ICE) will discontinue using this facility as of August 9, 2024. The South Texas Facility was created in collaboration with ICE and a third-party lessor to address the unique challenges posed by then unprecedented levels of family immigration in 2014. This pioneering facility was initially designed to provide a family-oriented environment, featuring educational, medical, dining and athletic facilities. During 2021, this facility’s mission shifted to detention of single adults. We appreciate the trust placed in CoreCivic to launch this unique facility, and we appreciate our excellent leadership and staff at the South Texas Facility, whom we have offered employment opportunities at other facilities within the CoreCivic portfolio.”

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results Compared With Second Quarter 2023

Net income in the second quarter of 2024 was $19.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with net income in the second quarter of 2023 of $14.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. However, when adjusted for special items, Adjusted Net Income for the second quarter of 2024 improved to $21.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share (Adjusted Diluted EPS), compared with Adjusted Net Income in the second quarter of 2023 of $13.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share. Special items for each period are presented in detail in the calculation of Adjusted Diluted EPS in the Supplemental Financial Information following the financial statements presented herein.

The increased adjusted earnings per share amounts resulted from higher federal, state, and local populations, particularly at our facilities serving ICE, combined with lower interest expense and a decrease in shares of common stock outstanding, both resulting from our capital allocation strategy. These earnings increases were achieved despite being partially offset by the expiration of our leases with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) at our California City Correctional Center on March 31, 2024, and with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (ODC) at our North Fork Correctional Facility on June 30, 2023, which collectively accounted for a per share reduction of $0.06.

We continue to realize improvements in our cost structure, both as a result of operating leverage stemming from improving facility occupancy versus the prior year, as well as from other initiatives, particularly those related to labor attraction and retention. The costs of registry nursing, temporary labor resources, including associated travel expenses, overtime and incentives, declined meaningfully from the prior year quarter as well as sequentially.

Revenue from ICE, our largest government partner, increased 10.5% compared with the second quarter of 2023, when the impact of Title-42 restrictions remained. Under Title 42, which ended May 11, 2023, asylum-seekers and anyone crossing the border without proper documentation or authority were denied entry at the United States border to contain the spread of COVID-19. Revenue from ICE declined slightly versus the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a slight decline in ICE detention populations nationwide. During the second quarter of 2024, revenue from ICE was $151.0 million compared to $136.7 million during the second quarter of 2023, and compared to $153.8 million during the first quarter of 2024.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was $79.8 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes special items, was $83.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared with $72.1 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was attributable to an increase in occupancy, combined with a general reduction in temporary staffing incentives and related labor costs, partially offset by the expiration of the leases with the CDCR at the California City facility and with the ODC at the North Fork facility.    

Funds From Operations (FFO) for the second quarter of 2024 was $43.8 million. Normalized FFO, which excludes special items, increased to $46.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2024, compared with $37.8 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase in Normalized FFO per share of 27%. Normalized FFO was impacted by the same factors that affected Adjusted EBITDA, further improved by a reduction in interest expense resulting from our debt reduction strategy that is not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a 2% reduction in weighted average shares outstanding compared with the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share amounts, are measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Please refer to the Supplemental Financial Information and the note following the financial statements herein for further discussion and reconciliations of these measures to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Business Updates

Capital Strategy

Share Repurchases. During 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $225.0 million of our common stock. On May 16, 2024, our Board of Directors authorized an additional $125.0 million in shares of our common stock for our share repurchase program, increasing the total aggregate authorization to $350.0 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 1.3 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $20.1 million, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases. Since the share repurchase program was authorized, through June 30, 2024, we have repurchased a total of 14.1 million shares at an aggregate price of $172.1 million, or $12.20 per share, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases.

As of June 30, 2024, we had $177.9 million remaining under the share repurchase program. Additional repurchases of common stock will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made at management’s discretion within parameters set by the Board of Directors from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase program has no time limit and does not obligate us to purchase any particular amount of our common stock. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, suspended, increased or decreased by our Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. As a result of ICE’s discontinued use of the South Texas Facility and the impact such discontinuation will have on our leverage ratios, we intend to prioritize the use of our free cash flow to further reduce our debt, although we may exercise discretion in repurchasing additional shares of our common stock in accordance with the repurchase program.

Debt Refinancing. On April 15, 2024, we redeemed the remaining $98.8 million outstanding principal balance of our 8.25% senior unsecured notes due 2026 (the 2026 Notes), at a redemption price of 104.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such notes to, but not including April 15, 2024, resulting in a charge of $4.1 million reported during the second quarter of 2024. This redemption completed the refinancing transactions begun during the first quarter of 2024 with the underwritten registered public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8.25% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the 2029 Notes). The net

proceeds from the offering of the 2029 Notes, amounting to $490.3 million, together with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand, were used to fund the tender offer for, and subsequent redemption of, the 2026 Notes, which had an outstanding principal balance of $593.1 million. Following the completion of the tender offer of $494.3 million, or 83.3% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes then-outstanding during the first quarter of 2024, and the redemption of the remaining $98.8 million principal balance outstanding during the second quarter of 2024, we have no debt maturities until 2027, when $243.7 million principal amount of our 4.75% senior unsecured notes mature.

Contract Updates

New Management Contract with State of Montana. On July 25, 2024, following a competitive bid process, we received a Notice of Intent to Award a new management contract from the state of Montana to care for additional residents at CoreCivic facilities. During the third quarter of 2024, we anticipate receiving 120 residents at our 1,896-bed Saguaro Correctional Facility in Eloy, Arizona, doubling the population from the state of Montana residing at this facility under an existing management contract. As of June 30, 2024, we also cared for approximately 1,000 residents from Hawaii, and nearly 600 residents from the state of Idaho at the Saguaro Correctional Facility. Should the state of Montana need additional capacity, the State may approve the utilization of any other facility we own or operate, subject to availability. The Notice of Intent to Award a management contract is an expansion of our relationship with the state of Montana, where we also manage the fully occupied company-owned Crossroads Correctional Center in Shelby, Montana for the state of Montana pursuant to a separate management contract.

South Texas Family Residential Center. As disclosed on June 10, 2024, we received notification from ICE that the agency intends to terminate an inter-governmental service agreement (IGSA) for services at the South Texas Facility on August 9, 2024. We lease the facility and the site upon which it was constructed from a third-party lessor, and we have provided notice of lease termination to the lessor, also effective August 9, 2024. Total revenue at this facility was $39.3 million and $156.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. The impact of this contract termination is included in our updated 2024 financial guidance.

NOTE TO SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share metrics are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and are used to review and assess operating performance of the Company and its properties and their management teams. The Company believes that it is useful to provide investors, security analysts, and other interested parties disclosures of its results of operations on the same basis that is used by management.

FFO, in particular, is a widely accepted non-GAAP supplemental measure of performance of real estate companies, grounded in the standards for FFO established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate and impairment of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. As a company with extensive real estate holdings, we believe FFO and FFO per share are important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs and other real estate operating companies, many of which present FFO and FFO per share when reporting results. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and FFO are useful as supplemental measures of performance of the Company’s properties because such measures do not take into account depreciation and amortization, or with respect to EBITDA, the impact of the Company’s tax provisions and financing strategies. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), this accounting presentation assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes at a level rate over time. Because of the unique structure, design and use of the Company’s properties, management believes that assessing performance of the Company’s properties without the impact of depreciation or amortization is useful. The Company may make adjustments to FFO from time to time for certain other income and expenses that it considers non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, even though such items may require cash settlement, because such items do not reflect a necessary or ordinary component of the ongoing operations of the Company. Normalized FFO excludes the effects of such items. The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income by adding to GAAP Net Income expenses associated with the Company’s debt repayments and refinancing transactions, and certain impairments and other charges that the Company believes are unusual or non-recurring to provide an alternative measure of comparing operating performance for the periods presented.

Other companies may calculate Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO differently than the Company does, or adjust for other items, and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share measures are not measures of performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. This data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
