NEWS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE |
CROSS COUNTRY HEALTHCARE REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2010 RESULTS
BOCA RATON, Fla. May 5, 2010 Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: CCRN) today reported revenue of $121.4 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2010, and net income of $1.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share. This compares to revenue of $175.4 million in the prior year quarter and net income of $3.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share. Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $10.3 million.
While the healthcare staffing industry still faces challenges, it appears we have weathered the worst of the down-turn in our operating environment and Cross Country has emerged in a relatively attractive competitive position given the strength of our balance sheet and the market share gains we have achieved in travel nurse and allied staffing, in particular, over the past 18 months, said Joseph A. Boshart, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cross Country Healthcare, Inc.
Our gross margin in the first quarter was up 270 basis points from the prior year and we ended the quarter with a debt leverage ratio comfortably below the maximum allowed under our credit agreement. More importantly, during the second quarter we made the final earn-out payment for the MDA acquisition of $12.8 million using cash on hand at the time and, as a result, expect to end the second quarter with less debt than we had at March 31st, Mr. Boshart added.
Nurse and Allied Staffing
For the first quarter of 2010, the nurse and allied staffing business segment (travel and per diem nurse and travel allied staffing) generated revenue of $64.7 million, reflecting a 38% decrease from the prior year quarter and a 1% sequential decrease from the fourth quarter of 2009. Contribution income (defined as income from operations before depreciation and amortization and corporate expenses not specifically identified to a reporting segment) decreased 41% in the first quarter of 2010 to $5.9 million from $10.0 million in the same quarter a year ago, and decreased 18% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. The year-over-year decreases in revenue and contribution income reflect the reduced demand for temporary nurse and allied staffing services primarily due to the macroeconomic environment, whereas the sequential decrease was due to two less days in the first quarter of the year combined with the norma l reset of payroll taxes.
Segment staffing volume decreased 35% from the prior year quarter, but increased 2% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. The sequential improvement reflected staffing volume gains in both travel and per diem staffing. Starting in the first quarter of 2010, the Company has elected to change the reporting of its revenue per FTE from a weekly basis to a daily basis, and going forward, will also provide comparable prior year quarter and period data in its respective quarterly earnings press releases. The segment revenue per FTE per day for the first quarter of 2010 was $303, a decline of 5% from the prior year quarter reflecting a 3% decline in the average hourly bill rate in travel nurse staffing and a relatively higher mix of per diem staffing, which typically has a lower average bill rate than travel staffing due to the mix of healthcare professionals.
Physician Staffing
For the first quarter of 2010, the physician staffing business segment generated revenue of $31.1 million, a 19% decrease from the prior year quarter and a 6% decrease sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. Contribution income decreased 11% in the first quarter of 2010 to $2.9 million from $3.2 million in the same quarter a year ago, and decreased 25% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. Physician staffing days filled for the first quarter of 2010 were 19,606 days, an 18% decrease from the prior year quarter and a 10% decrease sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. Revenue per day filled for the first quarter of 2010 was $1,588, a 1% decrease from the prior year quarter, but a 4% increase sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009, reflecting a favorable change in the mix of specialties.

The Company believes the lingering effects of the recession and the weak housing market have delayed the retirement plans of many physicians. These factors, along with a reduction in surgeries have resulted in a decrease in demand for temporary physicians, particularly in such specialties as anesthesiology and surgery.
Clinical Trials Services
For the first quarter of 2010, the clinical trials services segment generated revenue of $15.2 million, a decrease of 28% from $21.0 million in the prior year quarter, but a 2% increase sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. Contribution income decreased 28% in the first quarter of 2010 to $1.6 million from $2.2 million in the prior year, but increased 72% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009.
While the environment for clinical trials services remained weak during the first quarter of 2010, the Company has seen gradual improvement in the core contract staffing component of its business.
Other Human Capital Management Services
For the first quarter of 2010, the other human capital management services business segment (education and training and retained search) generated revenue of $10.4 million, a 7% decrease from revenue of $11.1 million in the same quarter in the prior year and a 3% decrease sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009. Segment contribution income increased 10% to $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2010 from $0.9 million in the prior year quarter, but decreased 1% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2009.
Debt Repayments
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company reduced its debt by $5.3 million from the end of the prior quarter. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $57.2 million of total debt on its balance sheet and a debt, net of cash, to total capitalization ratio of 14.4%. At the end of the first quarter of 2010, the Companys debt leverage ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) was 2.0 to 1, well below the 2.5 to 1 maximum allowable ratio effective for the duration of the credit agreement.
Guidance for Second Quarter 2010
The following statements are based on current management expectations. Such statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.

Cross Country Healthcare expects revenue in the second quarter of 2010 to be in the $117 million to $120 million range and earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $0.02 to $0.04.
Annual Meeting of Stockholders
At the Companys Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 4, 2010, all seven directors were re-elected to hold office until the next Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Stockholders also approved an amendment to the Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan) to (a) increase the number of shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, that may be issued under the Plan from 1,500,000 shares to 3,500,000 shares and (b) increase the share sub-limit for awards that are not appreciation awards that may be granted pursuant to the Plan, from 1,200,000 shares to 1,700,000 shares of Common Stock.
