7/27/2010
CLEVELAND, July 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE: CBZ) today announced results for the second quarter and first half ended June 30, 2010.
CBIZ reported revenue of $180.8 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, a decline of 2.3% compared with the $185.2 million reported for the second quarter of 2009. Revenue from newly acquired operations contributed $5.1 million to revenue in the second quarter compared with the same period a year ago. Same-unit revenue declined by 5.1%, or $9.5 million for the second quarter 2010, compared to the same period a year ago. CBIZ reported income from continuing operations for the quarter of $6.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared with $6.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2009.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, CBIZ reported revenue of $391.1 million compared with $401.6 million for the comparable six-month period a year ago. Same-unit revenue decreased by 5.4%, or $21.7 million, for the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period a year ago. Acquisitions contributed $11.1 million to revenue growth for the first half of 2010. Net income from continuing operations was $23.8 million for the first six months of 2010, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared with $25.3 million for the first six months of 2009, or $0.41 per diluted share.
Results for the six months include a pre-tax charge of approximately $1.4 million related to integration activities of Goldstein Lewin & Company which was acquired in the first quarter 2010. Also included in the six months results was an increase in legal expenses of approximately $1.3 million which was related to bringing several long standing matters to a successful conclusion. These charges were primarily incurred in the first quarter of 2010, and the impact on fully diluted earnings per share for the six months was approximately $0.03 per share.
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $7.1 million. The outstanding balance of the Company's unsecured bank line of credit at June 30, 2010 was $115.0 million compared with a balance of $110.0 million at December 31, 2009. On June 4, 2010, the Company established a new $275 million unsecured bank credit facility to expire in 2014 that replaced its previous $214 million credit facility.
Cash earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure that includes major non-cash charges to income from continuing operations, was $0.23 for the second quarter compared with $0.23 a year ago, and $0.64 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared with $0.64 per share a year ago. A schedule which reconciles Cash EPS with GAAP EPS is attached. EBITDA for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $18.1 million, and for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $54.3 million.
"As expected, the economic environment in 2010 continues to present revenue growth challenges as high rates of unemployment continue to persist and the mid-sized business clients typically served by CBIZ are not yet experiencing an increase in activity. We have taken actions to carefully manage costs and results in both our Financial Services and Employee Services segments are generally in line with expectations for the first six months and we have been able to improve margins in each of these two segments despite the revenue challenges," stated Steven L. Gerard, Chairman and CEO. "Our cash flow from operations is positive for the first six months, and our balance sheet continues to be strong. We completed two acquisitions in the first half of 2010 and we are continuing to assess a number of potential acquisition opportunities," stated Mr. Gerard.
"The volume of activity within our MMP business has increased slightly in the second quarter from the decline experienced in the first quarter, but continues to be impacted from the industry-wide reduction in the volume of procedures, primarily in the radiology practices we serve. The decline we experienced in the first half of the year has impacted earnings by approximately $0.05 per share. Because of the trends we have seen in the second quarter, we expect that second half financial results within this segment will be relatively flat compared with prior year. As a result, it will be difficult to achieve our 2010 goal of increasing earnings per share by 4%, or more, however, we expect that full year earnings per share for CBIZ in 2010 will be within a close range of the $0.52 per share reported in 2009. We also expect that full year EBITDA for 2010 will be within a similar range of the $85 million that we achieved in 2009," concluded Mr. Gerard.

(3) The Company believes cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted
share (non-GAAP measures) more clearly illustrate the impact of
certain
non-cash charges to income from continuing operations and are a
useful measure for the Company and its analysts. Cash earnings is
defined as
income from continuing operations excluding depreciation and
amortization, non-cash interest expense, non-cash stock based
compensation
expense and the portion of the $1.4 million restructuring charge to
be paid in future periods related to the 2010 acquisition of
Goldstein Lewin.
Cash earnings per diluted share is calculated by dividing cash
earnings by the number of weighted average diluted common shares
outstanding
for the period indicated. Cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted
share should not be regarded as a replacement or alternative of
performance
under generally accepted accounting principles.
