FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Providence Service Corporation Reports Q1 2012 Results

Highlights:

• Revenue rose 14.2% over last year’s first quarter to $260.1 million

• Diluted EPS of $0.23

• Net cash provided by operations totaled $9.2 million

• Higher utilization primarily due to an unusually mild winter and start-up expenses contributed to higher NET costs

TUCSON, ARIZONA –May 9, 2012 —The Providence Service Corporation (Nasdaq: PRSC) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.

First Quarter 2012 Results

For the first quarter of 2012, the Company reported revenue of $260.1 million, an increase of 14.2% from $227.8 million in the comparable period in 2011. Revenue from Providence’s non-emergency transportation (NET) services segment grew 18.5% to $164.7 million in the first quarter from $139.0 million in the prior year period. Revenue from the social services segment increased 7.5% to $95.5 million, up from $88.8 million in the first quarter of 2011. Revenue growth benefitted from new NET contract wins and a June 2011 acquisition.

Net income was $3.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2012 compared to net income of $4.5 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011. The current quarter included a non-recurring tax benefit of approximately $0.03 per share related to a tax accounting method change for a 2011 acquisition.

Providence’s direct social service client census was approximately 61,900 at March 31, 2012 compared to 59,800 at March 31, 2011. The Company had approximately 12.4 million individuals eligible to receive services under its NET contracts at March 31, 2012 compared to approximately 9.6 million at March 31, 2011. Total direct contracts numbered 720 at March 31, 2012 compared to 725 at March 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2012, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $47.1 million. During Q1 2012, the Company generated a total of $9.2 million in cash from operations. At March 31, 2012, the Company had long term liabilities of $163.8 million, down from $174.7 million at March 31, 2011.

“Our first quarter results saw higher than normal expenses in the NET segment primarily due to the effect of an unusually mild winter on utilization and start-up expenses associated with launching several new contracts simultaneously,” stated Fletcher McCusker, Chairman and CEO. “While start-up expenses will continue to impact the second quarter, we anticipate having all five of our new contracts up and running during the back half of the year and believe we are well positioned to grow and win new business.”

Guidance

For the full year 2012, Providence continues to anticipate revenue to be approximately $1.0 billion with diluted earnings per share of approximately $1.22. While NET utilization has increased and start up costs for new NET business are significant in the first half of 2012, we expect the new business to ramp up in the second half of the year. In addition, social services revenue is slightly ahead of plan. As a result, quarterly results for the remainder of 2012 are expected to approximate the following:

Quarter	Revenue		Diluted EPS
Q2	$	275 million	$	0.17
Q3	$	273 million	$	0.34
Q4	$	280 million	$	0.48

The Company anticipates its tax rate to be 42.65% for the remaining quarters in 2012.

About Providence

The Providence Service Corporation, through its owned and managed entities, provides home and community based social services and non-emergency transportation services management to government sponsored clients under programs such as welfare, juvenile justice, Medicaid and corrections. Providence is different from many of its competitors in that it provides its social services primarily in the client’s own home or in community based settings versus treatment facilities or hospitals and provides its NET management services through local transportation providers rather than owning its own fleet of vehicles. The Company provides a range of services through its direct entities to approximately 61,900 clients through 720 active contracts at March 31, 2012, with an approximate 12.4 million individuals eligible to receive the Company’s non-emergency transportation services. Combined, the Company has an approximately $1 billion book of business including managed entities.
