Second Fiscal Quarter of 2011 Financial Results
Total net revenues from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010 increased 13.7% to $14.6 million compared to $12.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009. Net patient care revenues increased 14.0% to $13.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 from $12.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009. This increase in revenues is due primarily to a 59% increase in census at Seven Hills Hospital in Las Vegas and a 65% increase in census at the Chemical Dependency unit at Harbor Oaks Hospital, partially offset by a decrease in census at Capstone Academy and a seasonal decline in census at the Company's other inpatient facilities. Contract support services revenue provided by Wellplace increased 9.6% to $956,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to $872,000 for the same period last year. This increase is due to expansion of the Wayne County call center contract, which increased services provided and payment under the contract.
Income from operations improved 41.8% to $729,000 for the 2011 second fiscal quarter compared to $514,000, for the same period in 2009. Income before taxes was $754,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 compared to $537,000 for the same period in 2009. Net income applicable to common shareholders was $503,000 for the 2011 second fiscal quarter, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $288,000 or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, in the 2010 second fiscal quarter.
Fiscal Year-to-Date 2011 Financial Results
For the six months ended December 31, 2010, total net revenues increased 16.4% to $29.7 million compared to $25.5 million for the same period in 2009. Net patient care revenues increased 17.5% to $27.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to $23.8 million for the same period in 2009. Income from operations increased 126.0% to $2.0 million compared to income from operations of $870,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009. Net income applicable to common stockholders was up 130.9% to $1.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2010, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share compared to net income of $512,000, or $0.03, per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended December 31, 2009.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.8 million compared to $4.5 million as of June 30, 2010. This reduction in cash is partially due to investment of $1 million in the purchase of the mortgage on the property leased by the Company's Capstone Academy. Stockholders' equity improved to $18.3 million as of December 31, 2010 from $17.3 million as of June 30, 2010.
"For our 2011 second fiscal quarter and six months, we again generated strong operating results, which was marked by year-over-year revenue growth and continued profitability; representing our eighth consecutive profitable quarter," said Bruce A. Shear, Pioneer's president and CEO. "Patient census at the Seven Hills Behavioral Institute facility increased 59% from the year-ago period. Seven Hills was profitable throughout the second quarter and its profitability continues to expand. Our ability to grow our business organically is demonstrated by the expanded service contract with the Detroit-Wayne County Community Mental Health Agency. We will now provide enhanced access services to 60,000 consumers and will increase revenue from the current contract by 50%. Our acquisition of the Renaissance Recovery facility in Detroit presents an opportunity to expand our services and provide unique behavioral treatment programs to chemically impaired adolescents, ages 12-17. This facility is expected to come on line within the next thirty days and is expected to add an additional $3-$5 million in annualized revenue. Detroit continues to represent a key growth market for us."
