DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- American CareSource Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ANCI) today reported second quarter 2011 net revenue of $11.3 million compared to $16.0 million for the second quarter of 2010. In addition, the Company reported a loss of $645,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to net income of $299,000, or $0.02 per diluted share reported in 2010.
“During the first half of 2011, revenues continued to be negatively impacted by competitive factors that have significantly extended the sales cycle. In addition, we have seen accelerated attrition in our key legacy accounts,” said Kenn S. George, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American CareSource Holdings. “The goal of new management is to identify ways to overcome the revenue challenges we face, develop new revenue sources, make selective investments and manage costs during the remainder of the year. We will analyze our alternatives and seek profitable revenue enhancements with a sense of urgency that is required under the circumstances.”
Net Revenue
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2011 was $11.3 million compared to $16.0 million reported during the second quarter of 2010. Revenue from the Company’s two key legacy accounts declined $7.4 million, or 57%. Claims volume from the two accounts decreased 28,000 claims, or 47% during the quarter compared to the corresponding prior year period. The loss of a significant employer group by one of the Company's two key clients accounted for approximately $3.0 million of the decline, while the remainder of the decline was the result of various competitive factors and the transition status of one of the accounts related to a business combination. The decline was partially offset by $1.7 million of incremental revenue generated in the second quarter from 13 new clients implemented in 2010 and $300,000 of incremental revenue from two new clients added in 2011.
Second quarter 2011 revenues decreased 14% sequentially from $13.1 million reported during the first quarter of 2011.
Claims Volumes
The Company billed 67,000 claims during the second quarter of 2011, a decrease from the 85,000 claims it billed during the same period last year. The lower claims volume was primarily the result of decreased claims flow from the Company’s two largest client accounts.
Following are claims volumes for the periods presented:
| (Claim amounts in 000’s) | Q2 2011 | Q1 2011 | Q2 2010 | ||||
| Claims: | |||||||
| Processed | 82 | 85 | 100 | ||||
| Billed | 67 | 68 | 85 | ||||
Contribution Margin
Contribution margin for the second quarter of 2011 decreased to 7.5%, compared to 13.2% reported during the second quarter of 2010. The decline in contribution margin was primarily the result of a shift in mix away from clients that generate higher margins, relative to other clients, primarily as a result of the loss of a significant employer group by one of our key legacy clients. In addition, during the second quarter the Company experienced a shift in mix from higher margin service categories, such as laboratory and infusion services, to lower margin categories, such as dialysis compared to the second quarter of 2010.
Following is a comparison of statement of operations components as a percent of net revenue:
| Q2 2011 | Q1 2011 | Q2 2010 | ||||
| Provider payments | 78.0% | 75.0% | 73.2% | |||
| Administrative fees | 4.4% | 5.1% | 6.2% | |||
| Claims administration and provider development | 10.1% | 8.5% | 7.4% | |||
| Total cost of revenues | 92.5% | 88.6% | 86.8% | |||
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
SG&A for the second quarter of 2011 increased approximately $147,000, to $1.6 million, compared the same period last year, primarily due to the reclassification of personnel expenses associated with an internal strategic realignment. SG&A as a percentage of total net revenues is a reflection of lower net revenues for the period.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2011 was a loss of $551,000, which compares to $998,000 million reported in the corresponding prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income or loss before depreciation and amortization and excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense and warrant amortization. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, income or loss from operations reported under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to operating income (loss) is provided in the tables accompanying this release.
Financial Liquidity
Total cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2011 was $11.4 million, compared to $14.5 million reported at December 31, 2010. The Company had no outstanding debt as of December 31, 2010.
