Arcadia Healthcare Announces Fiscal Third Quarter Results; DailyMed™ Revenue Increases 30% Quarter over Quarter
- Debt Restructuring Initiatives Underway
- Third Quarter Pharmacy Revenues Increase 16% over Last Year
- Third Quarter Home Health Care Revenues Increase 14% over Last Year
INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 9, 2009--Arcadia Resources, Inc. (NYSE Alternext: KAD), a leading provider of innovative consumer health care services under the Arcadia HealthCareSM brand, today announced results for its fiscal 2009 third quarter and the nine months ended December 31, 2008.
Results for the Fiscal Third Quarter
The Company reported net revenues of $35.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, down $2.0 million from net revenues of $37.2 million for the same period a year ago. Total revenue was significantly impacted by a $3.5 million or 48.2% decline in third quarter revenues in the Company’s non-medical staffing business unit.
- Pharmacy: Pharmacy segment revenues, including DailyMed™ and the Company’s proprietary pharmacy management software, increased 15.9% to $2.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to $1.8 million for third quarter of fiscal 2008. Most notably, fiscal 2009 third quarter DailyMed™ revenues increased by 30.0% over its fiscal 2009 second quarter revenues.
- Services: The Company’s Services segment, which includes our home health care, medical staffing and non-medical staffing business units, reported net revenues of $28.2 million for the third quarter compared to net revenues of $30.2 million for the same period a year ago. Within the Services segment, home health care revenues increased by $2.1 million or 13.8% compared to the same period last year offset by a $3.5 million decline in non-medical staffing revenues and a $639,000 decline in medical staffing revenues.
- HHE: Revenues in the HHE segment, which includes home health equipment, durable medical equipment and our catalog and internet home health products, decreased 5.2% to $5.0 million in the third quarter compared to $5.2 million for the same period a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to declining revenues in the catalog and internet home health products business unit during this period.
“We are very encouraged by the positive third quarter revenue trends in our key pharmacy and home health care business units, as revenues collectively increased by 20.5% over the same period last year,” said Marvin R. Richardson, President and Chief Executive Officer. “These results are positive indicators that the Company’s focus on our vision of ‘Keeping People At Home and Healthier Longer’ will lead to creation of the greatest value for the Company’s stakeholders. Unfortunately, our non-medical staffing has taken the brunt of a weakened economy and we continue to see soft demand in the medical staffing markets, resulting in reduced overall revenue and EBITDA for the Company as a whole.”
The Company’s net loss from continuing operations has increased from a net loss of S2.4 million in the third quarter of last year to a net loss of $2.6 million for the current quarter. EBITDA from continuing operations for the quarter was a negative $408,000, compared to a positive $19,000 for the same period a year ago. Both the net loss and EBITDA of the Company were negatively impacted by a $494,000 decline in net income for the Company’s non-medical staffing business as compared to third quarter of fiscal 2008.
The Company’s gross margins increased this quarter by 1.6%, to 34.1% of net revenues compared to 32.5% of net revenues for the third quarter of last year. Gross margins in the Company’s Services segment increased by 2.5% from 26.6% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 to 29.1% this fiscal quarter.
SG&A expenses increased from $12.6 million a year ago to $13.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.
“During our fiscal third quarter, management took several additional steps to reduce SG&A expenses – which in the short term contributed to a slight increase in overall expenditures,” said Matthew R. Middendorf, Chief Financial Officer. “SG&A expenses for the third quarter included charges relating to our restructuring efforts, including $250,000 in severance costs and additional expenses of $250,000 resulting from the closing of our Paducah, Kentucky pharmacy and the concurrent ramp-up of our Indianapolis pharmacy. We anticipate that the positive financial impacts of these efforts will begin to be realized in our fourth quarter. In addition, we believe the improved gross margin in the Services segment is particularly noteworthy as it represents the third consecutive quarter of stronger margins over the prior year period.”
Results for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2008
The Company reported net revenues of $108.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, down 3.0% from net revenues of $112.2 million for the same period a year ago. Consistent with third quarter results, year-to-date revenue was significantly impacted by the Company’s non-medical staffing business unit which experienced a $6.4 million or 31.3% revenue decline over the same period last year.
- Pharmacy: Pharmacy segment revenues increased 10.0% to $5.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 as compared to $5.0 million for the same period last year.
- Services: The Company’s Services segment reported net revenues of $88.1 million year-to-date, a 4.8% decrease when compared to net revenues of $92.6 million a year ago. Within the Services segment, home health care revenues increased by $5.5 million or 12.0% year-to-date offset by a $6.4 million decline in non-medical staffing revenues and a $3.6 million decline in medical staffing revenues for the same period.
- HHE: Revenues in the HHE segment increased 4.6% to $15.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared to $14.7 million for the same period a year ago.
The Company’s net loss from continuing operations has narrowed by $1.2 million from $10.5 million for the first nine months of last year to a net loss of $9.3 million for the current nine month period.
The Company’s gross margin improved by 2.7% to 34.4% of net revenues this most recently completed nine months compared to 31.7% of net revenues for the first nine months of last year. EBITDA from continuing operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 improved by $1.6 million, from negative $2.9 million last year to a negative $1.3 million this year.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
At December 31, 2008, the Company had $302,000 in cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet and had access to $2.8 million in additional line of credit availability, resulting in total cash and availability of $3.1 million, compared to total cash and availability of $4.1 million at September 30, 2008. The $1.0 million decrease resulted from a reduction in borrowing base availability and our investing and financing activities, including debt payments, capital expenditures relating to our Indianapolis pharmacy ramp-up and cash payments to satisfy past business acquisitions.
Cash flow provided by operations was $38,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared with the cash used of $7.1 million for the same period a year ago.
“Management will continue to spend significant time and energy in the fourth quarter addressing the Company’s outstanding debt, a large portion of which became current during the third quarter. We will engage in further discussions with our senior and subordinated debt holders to review ways to restructure the overall debt load to support both our core operations and our pharmacy growth plans,” stated Mr. Middendorf. “As we move forward with these initiatives, we will continue our disciplined approach to cash management and will look at all opportunities to improve and strengthen our cash position through the sale of additional non-core assets and additional SG&A reductions.”
Restructuring Highlights
- The Company completed the consolidation of its Paducah, Kentucky pharmacy operations into its new state-of-the art Indianapolis pharmacy during the third quarter. As part of this process, it sold certain remaining assets and outsourced the inhaled medications business previously operated from this pharmacy location.
- The Company completed its previously announced staff reductions during third quarter which impacted approximately 40 employees and reduced annual salary expenses by approximately $1.9 million. The positive financial impacts of these headcount reductions will begin to be realized in the fourth quarter.
- In early January, the Company completed the sale of its San Fernando HHE location and will continue to divest other non-core assets that do not support our vision in order to improve our cash position and to further reduce SG&A expenses.
Management’s Outlook
“Our Indianapolis pharmacy is now fully operational and, together with our Minneapolis pharmacy, produced a 30% quarter over quarter DailyMed™ revenue increase. During the third quarter, we have worked closely with Indiana Medicaid and its third-party pharmacy administrator, EDS, to enroll Care Select patients in the Purdue University medication management study and the effort continues to provide an increasing number of DailyMed™ patients each week,” stated Mr. Richardson. “Management anticipates that fourth quarter fiscal 2009 Pharmacy segment revenues will be up 20% over third quarter revenues and that within the Pharmacy segment revenues, fourth quarter DailyMed™ revenues are expected to increase yet again by 30% over third quarter revenues.”
“However, while we anticipate continued positive trends in our key home health care and pharmacy business units, current economic conditions have adversely impacted our medical staffing and non-medical staffing markets and we see no near-term improvement for these business units,” continued Richardson. “During this past quarter, we incurred one-time costs associated with our on-going SG&A cost reduction efforts and the consolidation of pharmacy operations that negatively impacted our fiscal third quarter results. Given these factors, we expect that we will report negative EBITDA for the Company as a whole for the full year ending March 31, 2009. Having said that, we believe that the improvements we have made in our key businesses have us well positioned for fiscal 2010, even if there is no significant improvement in the economy.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Arcadia reports non-GAAP financial results. Arcadia’s management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide supplemental information that facilitates comparisons to prior periods. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate its financial results, develop budgets and manage expenditures. The method Arcadia uses to produce non-GAAP results is likely to differ from the methods used by other companies and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this release.
