MAXIMUS Reports Fiscal 2011 Second Quarter Results

- Company Delivers Record Revenue and Increases Fiscal 2011 Guidance -

RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 5, 2011--MAXIMUS (NYSE: MMS), a leading provider of government services worldwide, today reported financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Key highlights include:

  • Second quarter revenue grew 11% to $227.1 million compared to the same period last year.
  • Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 39% to $1.07 for the second quarter compared to adjusted diluted EPS of $0.77 in the prior-year period.
  • Cash and cash equivalents totaled $183.2 million at March 31, 2011.
  • Year-to-date signed awards were $904 million at May 2, 2011.

Revenue for the fiscal 2011 second quarter increased 11% (8% on a constant currency basis) to $227.1 million compared to $204.4 million reported for the same period last year. Income from continuing operations, net of taxes, increased to $19.0 million for the second quarter compared to $18.0 million last year (which included a pre-tax benefit of $6.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, related to a net legal recovery and is reflected in the supplemental pro forma table included on the last page of the financial tables). For the second quarter, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 39% to $1.07 compared to adjusted diluted EPS of $0.77 for the same period last year.

Second quarter revenue and profit growth were driven by business expansion, as well as strong operational performance in both segments and across all geographies, which resulted in an operating margin of 13.0%.

“We generated very strong results for the period and made measurable progress on several key initiatives, including the expansion of our global operations and the growth of our domestic health care business,” commented Richard A. Montoni, Chief Executive Officer of MAXIMUS. “In April, we were notified of award for three new welfare-to-work contracts in the United Kingdom. These awards offer attractive economics that we can build upon to grow our presence in the U.K. and, longer-term, into other geographies. On the domestic front, we are benefiting from increased demand as states transition Medicaid and CHIP program participants into more cost-effective managed care programs and seek to comply with regulations as part of federal health care reform.”

Health Services Segment

Health Services Segment revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased 8% to $137.8 million compared to $127.3 million in the same period last year. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by organic growth and a spike in accretive transaction-based revenue, which resulted in an operating margin of 14%. Operating income for the second quarter increased 52% to $19.4 million compared to $12.7 million for the same period last year.


Human Services Segment

Human Services Segment revenue for the fiscal 2011 second quarter increased 16% (10% on a constant currency basis) to $89.3 million compared to $77.1 million in the prior-year period. Revenue growth was driven by the Company’s international welfare-to-work business in Australia and the United Kingdom. Operating income for the second quarter increased 12% to $10.1 million compared to $9.0 million in the same period last year. Segment operating margin was 11.3% and consistent with the same period last year.

Sales and Pipeline

At May 2, 2011 fiscal year-to-date signed contract wins totaled $904 million compared to $304 million reported last year, and new contracts pending (awarded but unsigned) totaled $526 million compared to $470 million last year. Sales opportunities (pipeline) at May 2, 2011 totaled $1.2 billion (consisting of $122 million in proposals pending, $203 million in proposals in preparation and $900 million in proposals tracking) compared to $1.8 billion the prior year.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $183.2 million at March 31, 2011. For the fiscal 2011 second quarter, cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled $6.0 million with free cash flow of $0.4 million. The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less property, equipment and capitalized software.

Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) from continuing operations were 61 days. On February 28, 2011, MAXIMUS paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share. On April 12, 2011, the Company announced its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share, payable on May 31, 2011 to shareholders of record as of May 13, 2011.

Share repurchases were not material in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and at March 31, 2011, the Company had $122.2 million available for repurchases under the current program.

Outlook

The Company is increasing its fiscal 2011 revenue and earnings guidance on the strength of its performance in the first half of fiscal 2011. MAXIMUS now expects revenue from continuing operations in the range of $910 million to $920 million and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $4.10 to $4.25. The Company expects operating margin for the full year to range between 12.5% and 13.0%.

Mr. Montoni concluded, “Our recent wins in the U.K. meet our sound criteria for scope and profitability and are expected to yield an operating margin in excess of 15% over the life of the contracts. Revenue from these contracts is expected to ramp-up over a two-year period. As a result, the contracts are expected to generate significant start-up losses in the range of $9 million to $11 million, pre-tax, for fiscal 2012, but are expected to approach break-even profitability in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. Even considering the start up effects of the U.K. contracts in fiscal 2012, the overall dynamics in our portfolio today set the stage for continued top-line and bottom-line growth in fiscal 2012 and beyond.”
