MADISON, N.J., DATE October 20, 2009—Quest Diagnostics Incorporated (NYSE: DGX), the world’s leading provider of diagnostic testing, information and services, announced that for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009, income from continuing operations rose to $192 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, from $160 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2008. In 2008, third quarter results were reduced by a $0.03 per share charge associated with the write-down of an equity investment, and a $0.02 per share impact associated with hurricanes.
Third quarter revenues increased 3.9% to $1.9 billion compared to the prior year. Clinical testing revenues increased by 4.3% compared to the prior year. Revenue per requisition increased 4.3%. Underlying volume in clinical testing, measured by the number of requisitions, continued to grow in the quarter. Reported testing volume was unchanged from the prior year and reflected a 23% decline in drugs-of-abuse testing volume, which is sensitive to hiring trends, and which reduced the company’s consolidated volume by 1.7%. In the third quarter of 2008, consolidated revenues and volume were reduced by approximately half a percent as a result of the impact of hurricanes.
“Quest Diagnostics’ strong financial performance continues to be driven by increased demand in testing for cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, allergies and Vitamin D levels. Based on our strong performance, we are raising earnings guidance for the full year,” said Surya N. Mohapatra, Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our continued focus on innovation is driving growth today and positioning Quest Diagnostics well for the future. We recently introduced the first commercial test for the H1N1 flu virus authorized by the FDA for emergency use, and launched a saliva-based genetic test that helps physicians predict response to the blood thinner Plavix®.”
For the third quarter, operating income increased to $348 million, or 18.4% of revenues, compared to $317 million, or 17.4% of revenues, for the third quarter of 2008. In the third quarter of 2008, operating income as a percentage of revenues was reduced by approximately half a percent as a result of the impact of hurricanes.
For the third quarter, bad debt expense as a percentage of revenues was 4.4%, unchanged from the second quarter and the prior year. Days sales outstanding of 43 days were unchanged from the second quarter and improved by two days from the prior year period. Cash flow from operations improved to $374 million compared to $329 million for 2008. During the quarter, the company repurchased $100 million of its common shares and made capital expenditures of $41 million.
Year-to-Date Performance
For the first nine months of 2009, income from continuing operations increased to $549 million, or $2.91 per diluted share, from $463 million, or $2.35 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2008. Revenues increased 2.9% to $5.6 billion.
Operating income for the first nine months of 2009 increased to $1.0 billion, or 18.3% of revenues, compared to $905 million, or 16.6% of revenues for 2008. Cash from operations, which was reduced by the $308 million payment in the second quarter related to the previously announced NID settlement, was $637 million. In the first nine months of 2008, cash from operations was $700 million. During the first nine months of 2009, the company repurchased $350 million of its common shares, and made capital expenditures of $117 million.
Outlook for the Full-Year 2009
For the full-year 2009, the company today increased its estimated earnings per diluted share from continuing operations to a range of $3.80 to $3.85. Previously, the company estimated diluted earnings per share of between $3.70 and $3.80. The company expects revenue growth of approximately 3% and operating income to exceed 18% of revenues. Cash from operations is expected to approximate $1.2 billion before the payment of the previously announced NID settlement, or $900 million after such payment. Capital expenditures are expected to approximate $180 million.

Notes to Financial Tables
|
|
|
|
1) |
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements, the provisions of which, among other things, require that minority interests be renamed “net income attributable to noncontrolling interests” and that a company present a consolidated net income measure that includes the amount attributable to such noncontrolling interests for all periods presented. The adoption of this standard did not impact earnings per share attributable to Quest Diagnostics’ common stockholders. |
|
|
|
|
2) |
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard related to determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities. Under this standard, the Company’s unvested restricted common stock and unvested restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities that are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Earnings per share calculations for all prior periods have been presented based on the two-class method. |

During the third quarter of 2008, the Company and NID reached an agreement in principle with the United States Attorney’s Office to settle the previously disclosed federal government investigation of NID, a test kit subsidiary that was voluntarily closed in 2006. As a result of the agreement in principle, during the third quarter of 2008, the Company recorded a charge of $73 million in discontinued operations to increase its reserves for the settlement and related matters. In the second quarter of 2009, the Company entered into a final settlement agreement with the federal government and paid $308 million, which had been previously reserved, in connection with the final settlement. |

Estimated cash from operations before the payment for the previously disclosed NID settlement is presented because management believes it is a useful adjunct to estimated cash from operations under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States since it is a meaningful measure of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Estimated cash from operations before the payment for the NID settlement is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered as an alternative to estimated cash from operations. The following table reconciles estimated cash from operations to estimated cash from operations before the payment for the NID settlement: |
