===== ===== ====== =======
(c) For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, amount for Roto-
Rooter includes a favorable adjustment to casualty insurance
related to prior periods' experience of $1,663,000 ($1,014,000
aftertax).
(d) For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, amounts include the
prepayment penalty and write-off of debt issuance costs related to
the early extinguishment and refinancing of certain portions of
the Company's debt ($2,523,000 aftertax). For the nine months
ended September 30, 2004, amount represents the prepayment penalty
incurred on the early extinguishment of the Company's debt
($2,030,000 aftertax).
(e) Amount includes the Company's aftertax share of VITAS' charges
related to the Company's acquisition of VITAS in the first quarter
of 2004 prior to the acquisition date. These charges comprise
transaction-related expenses that reduced the Company's equity in
the earnings/(loss) of VITAS by $4,621,000 during the first
quarter of 2004.
(f) Amounts represent favorable adjustments to transaction expenses
related to the acquisition of VITAS.
(g) Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the
Roto-Rooter segment expenses all advertising, including the cost
of telephone directories, immediately upon the initial release of
the advertising. Telephone directories are generally in
circulation 12 months. If a directory is in circulation for a time
period greater or less than 12 months, the publisher adjusts the
directory billing for the change in billing period. The timing of
when a telephone directory is published can and does fluctuate
significantly on a quarterly basis. This "direct expensing"
results in significant fluctuations in quarterly advertising
expense. In the third quarters of 2005 and 2004, GAAP advertising
expense for Roto-Rooter totaled $4,362,000 and $4,040,000,
respectively. If the expense of the telephone directories were
spread over the periods they are in circulation, advertising
expense for the third quarters of 2005 and 2004 would total
$4,692,000 and $4,617,000, respectively. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004, GAAP advertising expense for
Roto-Rooter totaled $12,685,000 and $12,170,000, respectively. If
the expense of the telephone directories were spread over the
periods they are in circulation, advertising expense for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, would total $13,654,000
and $13,213,000, respectively.
(h) For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, amounts include
costs related to accelerating the vesting of stock options in
addition to payouts under the Company's LTIP.
(i) Amounts represent the additional net income VITAS would contribute
assuming the acquisition were completed on January 1 of the
respective years (excluding Chemed management fees).
(j) Amount represents the additional financing costs, including a loss
on early extinguishment of debt in 2004, that would have been
incurred assuming the financing were completed on January 1, 2004.
(k) Amount represents the impact of eliminating the Company's prior
investments in VITAS, assuming the acquisition of VITAS were
completed on January 1, 2004.
(l) Pro forma amounts for 2004 for VITAS and Corporate assume the
Company's acquisition of VITAS and its financing (including the
retirement of existing debt) were completed as of January 1, 2004,
on the same terms and conditions as completed on February 24,
2004.
