BBSI Reports Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
- 35% Increase in Gross Revenues Drives Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.53 -
VANCOUVER, Washington, July 24, 2012 – Barrett Business Services, Inc. (BBSI) (NASDAQ: BBSI), a leading provider of business management solutions, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Second Quarter 2012 Financial Highlights vs. Year-Ago Quarter
| · | Net revenues increased 26% to $95.5 million |
| · | Gross revenues increased 35% to $494.1 million | |
| · | Net income of $3.7 million or $0.53 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $3.4 million or $0.34 per diluted common share |
Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Net revenues in the second quarter of 2012 increased 26% to $95.5 million, compared to $76.0 million in the second quarter of 2011.
Total non-GAAP gross revenues in the second quarter of 2012 increased 35% to $494.1 million, compared to $366.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below). The increase was attributed primarily to the continued build in the Company’s Professional Employer Organization (PEO) client count and same-store-sales growth.
Net income in the second quarter of 2012 was $3.7 million or $0.53 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $3.4 million or $0.34 per diluted common share in the year-ago quarter. The second quarter of 2011 included the benefit of a lower annual effective income tax rate resulting from the non-taxable $10 million of key man life insurance proceeds received following the passing of the Company’s former president and CEO. Excluding the tax rate benefit, non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2011 was $2.9 million or $0.28 per diluted common share (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below).
On June 30, 2012, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $68.0 million, compared to $81.8 million at December 31, 2011. In March of 2012, BBSI completed the repurchase of 2.5 million common shares from the Estate of William W. Sherertz, which represents all the common shares held by the estate of the Company’s former president and CEO, as well as 500,000 common shares from Nancy Sherertz, for a combination of $24.9 million in cash and $34.8 million of nonconvertible, non-voting, redeemable preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $59.7 million or $20.00 per common share. The Company anticipates borrowing funds through a bank line of credit to redeem the preferred shares during the third quarter of 2012.

Management Commentary
“The 35% increase in gross revenues represents our tenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year double-digit sales growth and an all-time record level of quarterly gross revenue,” said Michael Elich, president and CEO of BBSI. “The results of another record quarter are attributed to the return we are realizing from our investment back into the organization, which is supporting continued pipeline growth and rewarding execution in the field. While we continue to mature our product offering, organizational culture and brand offering to our client base, we are seeing continued strength in our pipeline of new client additions while also maintaining very strong client retention.”
Third Quarter 2012 Outlook
For the third quarter of 2012, the Company expects gross revenues to range between $525 million and $530 million, compared to $406.0 million for the third quarter of 2011. Diluted income per common share in the third quarter of 2012 is expected to range between $0.70 and $0.73, compared to diluted income per common share of $0.54 in the year-ago quarter. Diluted income per common share in the third quarter of 2011 included a favorable income tax rate benefit related to the effect of a much lower annual effective income tax rate attributable to the life insurance proceeds as previously discussed. Without this benefit, diluted income per common share in the third quarter of 2011 was $0.42.
The range of anticipated diluted earnings per common share for the third quarter of 2012 excludes an accrual of a dividend on the redeemable preferred stock as the Company currently plans to redeem the preferred stock in full before September 28, 2012, in which event, no dividend would be payable. As discussed above, the Company anticipates redeeming the preferred shares using a bank line of credit. A reconciliation of expected gross revenues to expected GAAP net revenues for the third quarter of 2012 is not included because PEO revenues and the cost of PEO revenues for the period cannot be reasonably estimated.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company is disclosing non-GAAP gross revenues and non-GAAP net income.
| 2 |
The Company reports its PEO revenues on a net basis because it is not the primary obligor for the services provided by the Company’s PEO clients to their customers. The gross revenues and cost of revenues information below, although not in accordance with GAAP, is presented for comparison purposes and because management believes such information is more informative as to the level of the Company’s business activity and more useful in managing its operations.

The Company is presenting non-GAAP net income because it believes it is more reflective of its actual operating results due to the non-recurring nature of the life insurance proceeds. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP operating performance is provided in the table below:
