EPS from Continuing Operations for Nine Months Ended June 30, 2008 of $0.14 Compared to a Loss of $0.62 Per Share in the Prior Year SOMERSET, N.J., Aug. 14
SOMERSET, N.J., Aug. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TeamStaff, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSTF) a national provider of healthcare, logistics and administrative staffing services, today announced its financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008.
TeamStaff's revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $17.8 million as compared to $16.6 million in the comparable quarter last year. Income from continuing operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 was $0.6 million or $0.12 per share as compared to a loss of $1.3 million or ($0.27) per share in the comparable quarter last year. Income from continuing operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 was $0.7 million or $0.14 per share as compared to a loss of $3.0 million or ($0.62) per share in the comparable nine months last year. Earnings per share in this release have been retroactively adjusted so as to incorporate the effect of the one-to-four reverse stock split effective April 21, 2008.
Commenting on the Company's turnaround, TeamStaff's President and CEO, Rick J. Filippelli, stated, "Our government staffing division, TeamStaff Government Solutions ("GS") continues to produce solid earnings. Our strategy to expand into Department of Defense contract opportunities as well as vertically driving our penetration in the Veterans Administration facilities has yielded positive results. In addition, GS is now bidding on government logistics staffing contracts such as warehouse management and base operating support services and has several bids outstanding. Gross margins improved due to higher pricing, direct cost control initiatives and more direct placements of contracted employees with less reliance on teaming partners. In our travel division, results were below internal expectations as the slowdown in diagnostic imagining offset the increase in nursing orders we saw during the quarter. As we anticipated, the JCAHO ('Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations') certification awarded to us earlier this year has provided additional recruiting as well as sales opportunities for us. As we continue to add to our travel sales force and expand our marketing initiatives, we believe the number of placements will increase and results will improve in this division." Mr. Filippelli continued, "Overall, we continue to execute on our turnaround plan with nine month income from continuing operations improving by $3.7 million from a year ago."
TeamStaff's gross profit was $3.3 million, or 18.6% of revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to $3.0 million, or 17.9% of revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2007.
SG&A expenses were $3.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $3.1 million in the comparable quarter last year. Adjusted for severance expense included in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and certain insurance items in the three months ended June 30, 2008, SG&A expenses increased $0.3 million. While the Company continues with its cost saving initiatives, this increase is due to an additional 35% in new business spending as well as certain employee costs. The Company seeks continued elimination of overhead costs deemed to be non-essential to growth or infrastructure.
Other income, net was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, primarily as a result of a change in estimate related to favorable resolution of certain periods IRS tax assessments.
Net income, including the results from discontinued operations, was $0.5 million or $0.11 per share for the third fiscal quarter of 2008, compared to a loss of $1.2 million or ($0.26) per share for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2007.
Cash and cash equivalents were $1.3 million at June 30, 2008. Availability at June 30, 2008 under the Company's revolving credit facility was approximately $2.8 million. There was no outstanding balance on the credit facility as of June 30, 2008. The Company believes that cash on hand and the availability under the existing revolving line of credit will provide sufficient liquidity over the next twelve months.
Nine Month Results
TeamStaff's revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 were $50.6 million as compared to $50.4 million last year. TeamStaff's gross profit was $9.0 million, or 17.8% of revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $8.0 million, or 15.9% of revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.
SG&A expenses were $8.2 million and $9.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Adjusted for severance expense included in the nine months ended June 30, 2007 and certain insurance items in the nine months ended June 30, 2008, SG&A expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 7%, despite a 39% increase in new business expense. This increased spending is related to increased sales and marketing efforts.
Income from continuing operations was $0.7 million or $0.14 per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to a loss of $3.0 million or ($0.62) per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2007. Net income, including the results from discontinued operations, was $0.6 million or $0.13 per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to a loss of $2.8 million or ($0.57) per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2007.
