The GEO Group, Inc. (NYSE: GEO) (“GEO”), a fully integrated equity real estate
investment trust (“REIT”) and a leading provider of enhanced
in-custody rehabilitation, post-release support, electronic
monitoring, and community-based programs, reported today its
financial results for the third quarter and the first nine months
of 2021.
Third Quarter 2021 Highlights
- Total revenues of $557.3 million
- Net Income Attributable to GEO of $34.7 million
- Adjusted Net Income of $44.0 million
- Normalized Funds From Operations (“Normalized FFO”) of $0.52
per diluted share
- Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”) of $0.65 per diluted
share
We reported third quarter 2021 net income attributable to GEO of
$34.7 million compared to $39.2 million for the third quarter 2020.
We reported total revenues for the third quarter 2021 of $557.3
million compared to $579.1 million for the third quarter 2020.
Third quarter 2021 results reflect a $1.1 million loss on real
estate assets, pre-tax, $4.0 million in M&A related expenses,
pre-tax, a one-time $5.0 million loss, pre-tax, on the previously
announced divestiture of GEO’s Youth Services contracts, and a $0.8
million benefit in the tax effect of adjustments to net income
attributable to GEO. Excluding these items, we reported third
quarter 2021 Adjusted Net Income of $44.0 million compared to $44.4
million for the third quarter 2020.
We reported third quarter 2021 Normalized FFO of $62.8 million,
or $0.52 per diluted share, which remained relatively unchanged
from $62.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the third
quarter 2020. We reported third quarter 2021 AFFO of $78.7 million,
or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to $80.6 million, or $0.67 per
diluted share, for the third quarter 2020.
George C. Zoley, Executive Chairman of GEO, said, “We are
pleased with our financial results and the significant progress we
have made towards reducing our debt and deleveraging our balance
sheet. In the first nine months of 2021, we reduced our net
recourse debt by approximately $175 million, already meeting our
previously articulated goal of reducing our net recourse debt by
$150 million to $175 million for the full year 2021. We believe
that our financial performance and our ability to meet our debt
reduction goal ahead of schedule are representative of the strength
of our diversified business segments. We recognize that there have
been concerns regarding our future access to financing, and we
believe that our debt reduction efforts, our review of potential
sales of Company-owned assets and businesses, and our Board’s
ongoing evaluation of our corporate tax structure are all prudent
steps as we work proactively towards addressing our future debt
maturities.”
First Nine Months 2021 Highlights
- Total revenues of $1.70 billion
- Net Income Attributable to GEO of $127.2 million
- Adjusted Net Income of $128.9 million
- Normalized FFO of $1.54 per diluted share
- AFFO of $1.95 per diluted share
For the first nine months of 2021, we reported net income
attributable to GEO of $127.2 million compared to $101.1 million
for the first nine months of 2020. We reported total revenues for
the first nine months of 2021 of $1.70 billion compared to $1.77
billion for the first nine months of 2020. Results for the first
nine months of 2021 reflect a $9.3 million gain on real estate
assets, pre-tax, $4.0 million in M&A related expenses, pre-tax,
a one-time $5.0 million loss, pre-tax, on the previously announced
divestiture of GEO’s Youth Services contracts, $7.5 million in
one-time employee restructuring expenses, pre-tax, a $4.7 million
gain on the extinguishment of debt, pre-tax, and a $0.8 million
benefit in the tax effect of adjustments to net income attributable
to GEO. Excluding these items, we reported Adjusted Net Income of
$128.9 million for the first nine months of 2021 compared to $116.3
million for the first nine months of 2020.
For the first nine months of 2021, we reported Normalized FFO of
$185.6 million, or $1.54 per diluted share, compared to $171.5
million, or $1.43 per diluted share, for the first nine months of
2020. For the first nine months of 2021, we reported AFFO of $235.3
million, or $1.95 per diluted share, compared to $226.0 million, or
$1.88 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2020.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
At the end of the third quarter 2021, we had approximately
$537.1 million in cash on hand, primarily resulting from the
previously announced drawdown of our Revolving Credit Facility. Our
decision to draw on our Revolving Credit Facility was a
conservative precautionary step to preserve liquidity, maintain
financial flexibility, and obtain additional funds for general
corporate purposes.
During the first nine months of 2021, we reduced net recourse
debt by approximately $175 million, already meeting our previously
articulated net recourse debt reduction objective of $150 million
to $175 million for the full year 2021. During the fourth quarter
2021, we expect to reduce net recourse debt by an additional $10
million to $20 million. During the first nine months of 2021, we
also completed the sale of five real estate assets, totaling
approximately 1,000 beds in addition to the divestiture of our
Youth services contracts. These sales generated combined net
proceeds of approximately $46 million. We are continuing to examine
our options to address our funded recourse debt, including our
nearer term maturities which encompass our 2023 and 2024 senior
unsecured notes and our senior credit facility, which may include,
subject to market conditions, additional capital markets
transactions, repurchases, redemptions, exchanges, or other
refinancing of our existing debt, and/or evaluating the potential
sale of additional Company-owned assets and businesses.
Additionally, as has been previously disclosed, our Board of
Directors is currently undertaking an evaluation of GEO's corporate
tax structure as a Real Estate Investment Trust.
Updated 2021 Financial Guidance
We have updated our 2021 financial guidance for the fourth
quarter and full year 2021. We expect Net Income Attributable to
GEO for the fourth quarter 2021 to be between $40 million and $42
million on quarterly revenues of $554 million to $559 million. We
expect fourth quarter 2021 Adjusted Net Income to be between $0.37
and $0.39 per diluted share and fourth quarter 2021 AFFO to be
between $0.65 and $0.67 per diluted share.
For the full year 2021, we expect Net Income Attributable to GEO
to be in a range of $165.5 million to $168.0 million on full-year
2021 revenues of approximately $2.26 billion. We expect full year
2021 Adjusted Net Income to be in a range of $1.41 to $1.43 per
diluted share and full year 2021 AFFO to be in a range of $2.57 to
$2.59 per diluted share. We expect full year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA
to be in a range of $451.5 million to $455.0 million.
Consistent with our previously disclosed expectations, our
guidance reflects the non-renewal of our contracts with the Federal
Bureau of Prisons at the Big Spring Correctional Facility and
Flightline Correctional Facility in Texas, when the current
contract option periods expire on November 30, 2021.
COVID-19 Information
As the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted communities across the
United States and around the world, our employees and facilities
have also been impacted by the spread of COVID-19. Ensuring the
health and safety of our employees and all those in our care has
always been our number one priority.
During the pandemic, we have implemented mitigation initiatives
to address the risks of COVID-19, consistent with the guidance
issued for correctional and detention facilities by the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”). We will continue to evaluate and refine the
steps we have taken as appropriate and necessary based on updated
guidance by the CDC and best practices. We are grateful for our
frontline employees who continue to make daily sacrifices to care
for all those in our facilities. Information on the COVID-19
mitigation initiatives implemented by GEO can be found at
www.geogroup.com/COVID19.

Reconciliation Tables and Supplemental Information
GEO has made available Supplemental Information which contains
reconciliation tables of Net Income Attributable to GEO to Net
Operating Income, Net Income to EBITDAre (EBITDA for real estate)
and Adjusted EBITDAre (Adjusted EBITDA for real estate), and Net
Income Attributable to GEO to FFO, Normalized FFO and Adjusted FFO,
along with supplemental financial and operational information on
GEO’s business and other important operating metrics, and in this
press release, Net Income Attributable to GEO to Adjusted Net
Income. The reconciliation tables are also presented herein. Please
see the section below titled “Note to Reconciliation Tables and
Supplemental Disclosure - Important Information on GEO’s Non-GAAP
Financial Measures” for information on how GEO defines these
supplemental Non-GAAP financial measures and reconciles them to the
most directly comparable GAAP measures. GEO’s Reconciliation Tables
can be found herein and in GEO’s Supplemental Information available
on GEO’s investor webpage at investors.geogroup.com.
Note to Reconciliation Tables and Supplemental Disclosure –
Important Information on GEO’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Net Operating Income, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, Funds from
Operations, Normalized Funds from Operations, Adjusted Funds from
Operations, and Adjusted Net Income are non-GAAP financial measures
that are presented as supplemental disclosures. GEO has presented
herein certain forward-looking statements about GEO's future
financial performance that include non-GAAP financial measures,
including Adjusted EBITDAre, Net Operating Income, FFO, Normalized
FFO, and AFFO. The determination of the amounts that are included
or excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of
management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the
nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a
given period.
While we have provided a high level reconciliation for the
guidance ranges for full year 2021, we are unable to present a more
detailed quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking
non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable
forward-looking GAAP financial measures because management cannot
reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP
measures. The quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking
non-GAAP financial measures will be provided for completed annual
and quarterly periods, as applicable, calculated in a consistent
manner with the quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures previously reported for completed annual and quarterly
periods.
Net Operating Income is defined as revenues less operating
expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, general
and administrative expenses, real estate related operating lease
expense, and start-up expenses, pre-tax. Net Operating Income is
calculated as net income adjusted by subtracting equity in earnings
of affiliates, net of income tax provision, and by adding income
tax provision, interest expense, net of interest income, gain/loss
on extinguishment of debt, depreciation and amortization expense,
general and administrative expenses, real estate related operating
lease expense, gain/loss on real estate assets, pre-tax, and
start-up expenses, pre-tax.
EBITDAre (EBITDA for real estate) is defined as net income
adjusted by adding provisions for income tax, interest expense, net
of interest income, depreciation and amortization, and gain/loss on
real estate assets, pre-tax. Adjusted EBITDAre (Adjusted EBITDA for
real estate) is defined as EBITDAre adjusted for net loss
attributable to non-controlling interests, stock-based compensation
expenses, pre-tax, and certain other adjustments as defined from
time to time, including for the periods presented M&A related
expenses, pre-tax, loss on asset divestiture, pre-tax, one-time
employee restructuring expenses, pre-tax, start-up expenses,
pre-tax, COVID-19 expenses, pre-tax, close-out expenses, pre-tax,
and other non-cash revenue and expense, pre-tax.
Given the nature of our business as a real estate owner and
operator, we believe that EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are
helpful to investors as measures of our operational performance
because they provide an indication of our ability to incur and
service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make
capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash
into our business. We believe that by removing the impact of our
asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and excluding
certain non-cash charges, amounts spent on interest and taxes, and
certain other charges that are highly variable from year to year,
EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre provide our investors with
performance measures that reflect the impact to operations from
trends in occupancy rates, per diem rates and operating costs,
providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income
attributable to GEO.
The adjustments we make to derive the non-GAAP measures of
EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre exclude items which may cause
short-term fluctuations in income from continuing operations and
which we do not consider to be the fundamental attributes or
primary drivers of our business plan and they do not affect our
overall long-term operating performance. EBITDAre and Adjusted
EBITDAre provide disclosure on the same basis as that used by our
management and provide consistency in our financial reporting,
facilitate internal and external comparisons of our historical
operating performance and our business units and provide continuity
to investors for comparability purposes.
Funds From Operations, or FFO, is defined in accordance with
standards established by the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which defines FFO as net income/loss
attributable to common shareholders (computed in accordance with
United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), excluding
real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains
and losses from the cumulative effects of accounting changes,
extraordinary items and sales of properties, and including
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Normalized Funds from Operations, or Normalized FFO, is defined
as FFO adjusted for certain items which by their nature are not
comparable from period to period or that tend to obscure GEO’s
actual operating performance, including for the periods presented
M&A related expenses, pre-tax, loss on asset divestiture,
pre-tax, gain on the extinguishment of debt, pre-tax, start-up
expenses, pre-tax, one-time employee restructuring expenses,
pre-tax, COVID-19 expenses, pre-tax, close-out expenses, pre-tax,
and tax effect of adjustments to FFO. Adjusted Funds From
Operations, or AFFO, is defined as Normalized FFO adjusted by
adding non-cash expenses such as non-real estate related
depreciation and amortization, stock based compensation expense,
the amortization of debt issuance costs, discount and/or premium
and other non-cash interest, and by subtracting recurring
consolidated maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash
revenue and expenses.
Adjusted Net Income is defined as Net Income Attributable to GEO
adjusted for certain items which by their nature are not comparable
from period to period or that tend to obscure GEO’s actual
operating performance, including for the periods presented
gain/loss on real estate assets, pre-tax, M&A related expenses,
pre-tax, loss on asset divestiture, pre-tax, gain on the
extinguishment of debt, pre-tax, start-up expenses, pre-tax,
one-time employee restructuring expenses, pre-tax, COVID-19
expenses, pre-tax, close-out expenses, pre-tax, and tax effect of
adjustments to Net Income Attributable to GEO.
Because of the unique design, structure and use of our GEO
Secure Services and GEO Care facilities, we believe that assessing
the performance of our secure facilities, processing centers, and
reentry centers without the impact of depreciation or amortization
is useful and meaningful to investors. Although NAREIT has
published its definition of FFO, companies often modify this
definition as they seek to provide financial measures that
meaningfully reflect their distinctive operations. We have modified
FFO to derive Normalized FFO and AFFO that meaningfully reflect our
operations. Our assessment of our operations is focused on
long-term sustainability. The adjustments we make to derive the
non-GAAP measures of Normalized FFO and AFFO exclude items which
may cause short-term fluctuations in net income attributable to GEO
but have no impact on our cash flows, or we do not consider them to
be fundamental attributes or the primary drivers of our business
plan and they do not affect our overall long-term operating
performance. We may make adjustments to FFO from time to time for
certain other income and expenses that do not reflect a necessary
component of our operational performance on the basis discussed
above, even though such items may require cash settlement.
Because FFO, Normalized FFO and AFFO exclude depreciation and
amortization unique to real estate as well as non-operational items
and certain other charges that are highly variable from year to
year, they provide our investors with performance measures that
reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates,
per diem rates, operating costs, and interest costs, providing a
perspective not immediately apparent from Net Income Attributable
to GEO.
We believe the presentation of FFO, Normalized FFO and AFFO
provide useful information to investors as they provide an
indication of our ability to fund capital expenditures and expand
our business. FFO, Normalized FFO and AFFO provide disclosure on
the same basis as that used by our management and provide
consistency in our financial reporting, facilitate internal and
external comparisons of our historical operating performance and
our business units and provide continuity to investors for
comparability purposes. Additionally, FFO, Normalized FFO and AFFO
are widely recognized measures in our industry as a real estate
investment trust.
