“Continued strong demand from our staffing and healthcare businesses enabled us to achieve double-digit growth in revenue and earnings and significant margin expansion over last year” said CTG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James R. Boldt. “Healthcare revenue in the second quarter increased 21% over last year and was 27% of total revenue with EMR projects contributing almost half of all healthcare revenue. We believe we are still in the early stages of the significant increases in demand expected for EMR assessments, systems implementation, and development work. During the second quarter, we began work on a health information exchange assessment for the state of Texas and were awarded three new major EMR projects. In the second quarter, we also signed our first contract for our actuarial underwriting solution that uses employer group financial information to more equitably and competitively price group premiums. We added 100 people to CTG’s headcount in the quarter, reflecting the strong demand in our managed services staffing business and EMR implementation services.”
“CTG also continues to be recognized on a national level as a leading provider of healthcare IT services, being named in June byHealthcare Informatics to its annual ranking of the largest healthcare IT providers, the Healthcare Informatics 100 (HCI 100). CTG was ranked 7th of the companies on the list that generated 100% of 2009 healthcare provider revenue from consulting services. Our visibility and reputation as a leading provider of healthcare IT continues to keep us on the short list for EMR requests for proposals, a significant advantage as EMR proposal activity is steadily increasing.”

Revenue and Earnings Guidance Updated
CTG expects its 2010 third quarter revenue to range from $81 million to $83 million, a 23% increase from 2009 at the midpoint of the projected range. The Company expects 2010 third quarter net income per diluted share of $0.11 to $0.13, a 20% increase from 2009 at the midpoint of the projected range. There are 63 billing days in the 2010 third quarter compared with 64 billing days in the 2009 third quarter.
Based on the strength of its current business and trends in its healthcare and staffing businesses, CTG has increased its 2010 revenue guidance to $320 million to $328 million from $314 million to $322 million, an 18% increase from 2009 at the midpoint of the new projected range. The Company has changed its 2010 net income per diluted share guidance to $0.45 to $0.51 from $0.47 to $0.55, a 26% increase from 2009 at the midpoint of the new projected range. A tax rate of approximately 40% is projected for 2010.
Mr. Boldt commented, “Second quarter revenue came in at the high end of expectations, and that combined with current and new business activity in our staffing and healthcare businesses, caused us to raise our revenue guidance for the year. At the same time, we lowered our 2010 earnings guidance because we are experiencing a reduction in demand for solutions work from a large customer in our energy practice. Overall, the favorable effect from the significant growth coming from our staffing and healthcare businesses still keeps us solidly on track to achieve double-digit revenue and earnings growth in 2010.”
Mr. Boldt concluded, “As we look beyond 2010, EMR projects and our new healthcare solutions will be the growth engines of our business for the foreseeable future. While our staffing business is currently growing at a greater rate than our more profitable solutions business in 2010, we expect that staffing demand will level off next year as the economic recovery progresses and our clients begin to make more internal hires. We also expect that demand for EMR solutions work will grow at a faster pace next year as access to financing for capital investments continues to improve for healthcare providers, more federal stimulus money becomes available, and the deadline for meaningful use incentives draws closer. Increasing EMR work and our success

at winning and implementing lucrative EMR projects put CTG in an excellent position for further margin expansion and continued growth in revenue and earnings over the next several years.”
