Five Star Quality Care, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2008 Results
____________________________________
Newton, MA (August 6, 2008). Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (AMEX: FVE) today announced its financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008.
Second Quarter 2008 Financial Highlights:
| § | Total revenues for the second quarter of 2008 increased 12.9% to $271.1 million from $240.1 million for the same period last year. |
| § | Net income per share from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2008 was $0.13, basic and diluted, compared to $0.16 and $0.15, basic and diluted, respectively, for the same period last year. |
| § | During the three months ended June 30, 2008, we recognized a $1.1 million loss, or $0.03 per share, basic and diluted, as a result of an unrealized loss on our holdings in auction rate securities. Without this loss, we would have reported net income per share from continuing operations, basic and diluted, in the three months ended June 30, 2008 of $0.16. We believe this adjusted net income per share from continuing operations is a meaningful disclosure that may help shareholders to better understand our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Page 6 of the attached Supplemental Information contains a Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for all adjusted earnings per share amounts presented in this release. |
| § | Net income per share from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2007 included a gain from extinguishment of debt of $934,000, or $0.03 and $0.02 per share, basic and diluted, respectively. Without this gain, we would have reported net income per share from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2007 of $0.13, basic and diluted. We believe this adjusted net income per share from continuing operations is a meaningful disclosure that may help shareholders to better understand our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2007. |

We believe this adjusted net income per share from continuing operations is a meaningful disclosure that may help shareholders to better understand our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008. |
| § | Net income per share from continuing operations in the six months ended June 30, 2007 included a gain from extinguishment of debt of $4.5 million, or $0.15 and $0.11 per share, basic and diluted, respectively. Without this gain, we would have reported net income per share from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $0.19 and $0.21, basic and diluted, respectively.

(1) | We consider earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, to be a meaningful measure of our operating performance because it is useful in measuring our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business. We believe that EBITDA is a meaningful disclosure that may help shareholders to better understand our financial performance, including comparing our performance to similar numbers reported by other companies, however, EBITDA as presented may not always be comparable to amounts calculated by other companies. This information should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from continuing operations, operating income, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance or liquidity measure established by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. We have not made any adjustments to reported EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, relating to the unrealized loss on investments in trading securities or the gain on extinguishment of debt shown in the reconciliations discussed on page 6 of the supplemental information in this earnings release. |
