TeamStaff Reports Third Quarter Results
— Company to Conduct Conference Call Today at 11am EDT —
Somerset, New Jersey— August 14, 2009 — TeamStaff, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSTF) a national provider of healthcare and administrative staffing services, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2009.
TeamStaff’s operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009 were $13.1 million as compared to $15.8 million in the comparable quarter last year and $13.7 million in the prior quarter ended March 31, 2009. The decrease in operating revenues from the prior year is due primarily to the impact of the economic environment on the results of TeamStaff Rx coupled with reduced personnel requirements and overtime restrictions at certain Government facilities. Net loss was $0.5 million or ($0.11) per share compared to net income of $0.5 million or $0.11 per share in the comparable quarter last year and a net loss of $0.6 million or $(0.11) per share sequentially. Adjusted to eliminate profit from certain non-recurring retroactive billings in the third quarter of last year, the results for the three months ended June 30, 2008 would have been a net income of $0.3 million, or $0.05 per share.
Commenting on the Company’s third quarter results, TeamStaff’s President and CEO, Rick J. Filippelli, stated, “During the quarter, the current operating environment for the TeamStaff Rx subsidiary continued to follow the contraction in hospital spending. Declining hospital revenues and overall conditions in the credit markets have made hospital access to credit markets tougher. This in turn has forced hospitals to cut spending. Permanent hospital staff is willing to work more hours resulting in a reduction in the demand for temporary staffing. This contributed to a 44% decline in third quarter Rx revenues compared to the prior year period. Although the market remains very challenging as evidenced by our significant drop in comparative third quarter revenues, we are starting to see signs that the pace of decline has slowed as open orders have increased 60% over the past month and applications from travelers continues to grow.”
Mr. Filippelli continued “Looking at our Government subsidiary, TeamStaff GS, despite the weak economy, posted relatively flat sequential quarter revenues. Due to the longer term nature of Government contracts and the Government’s commitment to support Veteran and active military programs, we believe that our GS business is better positioned to grow in a down economy. We have, however, experienced a longer Government sales cycle over the past two quarters. The process from solicitation to contract award has taken longer due to, we believe, key employee turnover within agencies and the slow rate that stimulus funds have flowed through the system. Over the past quarter, however, with key agency positions being filled and stimulus funding being committed, our pipeline, which represents current bid opportunities as well as solicitations expected out within the next quarter, has grown. We believe the Government’s demand for contracted workers will be strong both in the short and long term. Going forward, we expect this demand to translate into substantial revenue opportunities for the Company. “
TeamStaff’s operating gross profit was $2.1 million, or 16.0% of revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to $3.0 million, or 19.2% of revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2008. The key drivers for the year over year decrease in gross profit were a higher percentage of Government revenues which carry a lower gross profit, an increase in medical expenses and lower employee turnover resulting in higher
vacation expense. Effective July 1, 2009, billing increases to certain government facilities were granted that are expected to help offset these additional expenses going forward. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, were $2.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively, despite a 5.7% increase in new business expense from the third quarter of fiscal 2008 to the third quarter of fiscal 2009.
Despite the loss, the Company remains on sound financial footing. At June 30, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.7 million and no balance outstanding on its revolving credit facility. During the quarter, the Company received approximately $0.5 million of insurance refunds. In addition, final settlement of the Government retro billings, anticipated prior to our September year end could net the Company $1.0 million in cash. For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company was not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio covenant required by the credit facility and has requested a waiver from Sovereign Bank. Sovereign is in the process of reviewing our request. The Company believes that it has adequate liquidity resources to fund operations over the next twelve months.
Nine Month Results
TeamStaff’s operating revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 were $41.5 million as compared to $47.0 million last year. TeamStaff’s operating gross profit was $7.0 million, or 16.9% of revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $8.5 million, or 18.0% of revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2008. SG&A expenses were $8.1 million and $8.2 million for nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Net loss was $1.0 million or ($0.21) per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 compared to net income of $0.6 million or $0.13 per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2008. Adjusted to eliminate profit from certain non-recurring retroactive billings in fiscal 2008, the results for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 would have been net income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share.

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. TeamStaff’s management does not suggest that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures, such as net income, cash flow data or other financial information presented in the consolidated financial statements. Adjusted net (loss) income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net (loss) income minus gross profit from non-recurring retroactive billings. The Company believes it is useful for management and investors to review both GAAP information and non-GAAP financial measures to have a better understanding of the overall performance of the Company’s business and trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that this information provides greater insight into our Company’s underlying operating performance that facilitates a more meaningful comparison of its current financial results in different reporting periods. The Company has chosen to show the three and nine month comparative adjusted net (loss) income to show what results would have been in the three and nine months of fiscal 2008 had the non-recurring retroactive billings not occurred.
