Jacksonville, Florida (January 26, 2012) – PSS World Medical, Inc. (NasdaqGS: PSSI) announced today its results for the fiscal year 2012 third quarter ended December 30, 2011.

President and Chief Executive Officer, Gary A. Corless, commented, “We continue to see lower utilization of the nation’s healthcare system in this prolonged economic slowdown, as evidenced by fewer visits to primary care physicians.  This year’s flu season, to date, has also been lighter than expected, based on historical patterns.  These factors, along with others, resulted in lower third quarter revenue growth than we expected.  Combined with anticipated fourth quarter costs and expenses related to recent acquisitions, we are lowering our fiscal year 2012 EPS goal to $1.43 - $1.44.

“We are committed to our stated purpose of strengthening the clinical success and financial health of caregivers by solving their biggest problems, and we are encouraged by the growing traction we see in all of the business strategies we have pursued to deliver on that commitment.”

Net sales for the three months ended December 30, 2011, were $527.7 million, an increase of 3.5%, compared with net sales of $510.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010.  Net sales for the three months ended December 30, 2011, for the Physician Business increased by 6.1% and decreased by 2.8% for the Extended Care Business.  Income from operations for the three months ended December 30, 2011, was $34.7 million, consistent with income from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010, of $34.7 million.  Net income for the three months ended December 30, 2011, was $20.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared with net income for the three months ended December 31, 2010, of $19.5 million, or $0.35 per diluted share.  The Company noted it had one more sales day (62 sales days) in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 compared with the number of sales days (61 sales days) in the third quarter of fiscal year 2011.

Net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2011, were $1,563.1 million, an increase of 5.3% (4.7% same day sales growth), compared with net sales of $1,485.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.  Net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2011, for the Physician Business increased by 9.2% (8.6% same day sales growth) and decreased by 3.6% (4.1% same day sales decline) for the Extended Care Business.  Income from operations for the nine months ended December 30, 2011, was $97.5 million compared with income from operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, of $95.4 million.  Net income for the nine months ended December 30, 2011, increased by 2.8% to $54.4 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, compared with net income for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, of $52.9 million, or $0.94 per diluted share.

David M. Bronson, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Despite slower top-line growth than expected this year, the Company continued to improve gross margins and to control operating costs, while investing in new programs and resources that will produce share gains and financial returns for the future.

“Cash flow from operations of $8.5 million reflected seasonal historic patterns of higher inventory purchases in advance of announced cost increases from manufacturers.  Deployment of capital continues to be focused on augmenting organic growth with an aggressive strategy of acquisitions.  Since March 2011, we have now acquired seven companies with combined expected annual revenues of approximately $68 million.  In addition, during the third quarter, we repurchased 1.5 million shares for approximately $35 million.”
