Columbia, SC – February 14, 2011 – UCI Medical Affiliates, Inc. (Pink Sheets: UCIA.PK) today announced that it had filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.

Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 were $22,112,826, an increase of $244,096, or 1.12% over revenues of $21,868,730 for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. Net income was $619,340, or $0.06 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 compared to net income of $234,297, or $0.02 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2009.

President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael Stout, MD, stated, “We are very pleased with our operating results in the first quarter of our 2011 fiscal year. In fact, this was the best first quarter in the Company’s history. Our business may be influenced by seasonal factors and the first quarter of our fiscal year is usually very challenging for us. Our goal is to build on our excellent first quarter results throughout the remainder of our 2011 fiscal year.”

Joe Boyle, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Our improved operating results in the first quarter reflect a combination of revenue growth, operating expense control and our continued focus on controlling our general and administrative expenses. As we continue into 2011, we will maintain as a high priority the improvement of our operating margin. Our cash position remained strong during the quarter and even though we did not increase our cash reserves, we were able to fund all our capital expenditures out of internally generated cash.”
