Cleveland, Ohio (July 26, 2006)—CBIZ, Inc.

CBIZ reported revenue of $152.8 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 9.4% over the $139.7 million recorded for the second quarter of 2005. Same-unit revenue for the second quarter increased by 5.7%, or by $7.9 million. Revenue from newly acquired operations contributed $5.2 million to revenue growth in the second quarter of 2006 compared with the second quarter a year ago. CBIZ reported income from continuing operations of $6.0 million for the second quarter 2006, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared with $4.7 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2005.
During the second quarter, the Company completed a $100 million offering of Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due in 2026. Net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were used by the Company to repurchase approximately 7.2 million shares of its common stock, including open market purchases through June 30, 2006, at a cost of approximately $56.8 million and to repay the outstanding balance under the Company’s $100 million unsecured credit facility. At June 30, 2006, there was no balance outstanding on the Company’s $100 million unsecured credit facility and the Company held approximately $14 million of surplus funds invested in short-term money market instruments.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, CBIZ reported revenue of $323.8 million, an increase of 9.8%, or $29.0 million over the $294.8 million recorded for the comparable six-month period a year ago. Same-unit revenue increased by 6.8%, or $20.1 million, for the first six months of 2006 compared to the same period a year ago. Acquisitions contributed $8.9 million to revenue growth for the first six months of 2006 compared with the same period a year ago. Income from continuing operations was $19.2 million for the first six months of 2006, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with $14.9 million for the first six months of 2005, or $0.19 per diluted share.

CBIZ also announced today that it will transfer the listing of its Common Stock to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). CBIZ anticipates the trading of its common stock to commence on the NYSE on Friday, August 4, 2006 under the new symbol “CBZ”. Until that time, the Company’s shares will continue to trade on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol “CBIZ”.
“We are pleased that we are achieving growth in all business segments within CBIZ,” stated Steven L. Gerard, Chairman and CEO. “This quarter represents the twelfth consecutive quarter of same-unit revenue growth for CBIZ. We have made three acquisitions so far in 2006 and each is contributing to our growth. Our cross-serving results continue to contribute to our revenue growth and for the first half of 2006, we have been able to translate our 9.8% revenue growth into a 31% growth in our earnings per share. We are on track to reach or achieve the higher end of our 2006 goals of 8% — 10% growth in revenue and 20% — 25% growth in earnings per share over the $0.28 recorded for 2005,” concluded Mr. Gerard.
