Hooper Holmes Announces Second Quarter 2012 Results

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., August 10, 2012 -- Hooper Holmes (NYSE MKT:HH) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

The Company recorded a net loss of $5.5 million, or ($0.08) per share, for the second quarter of 2012 compared to a net loss of $1.6 million, or ($0.02) per share, for the second quarter of 2011. The net loss for the second quarter of 2012 includes $1.6 million of restructuring charges related to our new Portamedic service delivery model.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, consolidated revenues were $74.2 million compared to $78.5 million in the comparable period of 2011. The Company's net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $8.7 million, or ($0.12) per share, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or ($0.02) per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 include $2.2 million of restructuring charges, primarily related to our new Portamedic service delivery model.

Second quarter 2012 revenues by service line:

Portamedic revenue totaled $24.4 million in the second quarter of 2012, a decline of approximately 9% compared to $26.8 million in the second quarter of 2011, primarily due to an 8% decline in paramedical exams completed during the quarter, along with a 1.9% decrease in revenue per exam.
Health & Wellness revenue totaled $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2012, a 51% increase from the second quarter of 2011, primarily due to an increase in health screenings completed during the quarter.
Heritage Labs revenue totaled $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of approximately 10% compared to the second quarter of 2011, primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from the Company's lab kit assembly services.

Hooper Holmes Services revenue totaled $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of 20% in comparison to the prior year period, primarily due to reduced demand for the Company's medical records collection services.

The Company's cash balance declined by approximately $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, primarily attributable to net cash used in operations of approximately $0.9 million and capital expenditures totaling $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2012. As of June 30, 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $11.4 million, with no outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility.

"The new delivery model we announced in June has been designed to improve our service and we believe it will increase revenue in Portamedic, while reducing our cost structure by approximately $4 million in the second half of 2012. On an annual basis, we have reduced Portamedic's cost structure by approximately $8 million,” said Ransom J. Parker, President and CEO of Hooper Holmes. “At the same time, Health & Wellness experienced continued strong double digit growth in the second quarter, as we completed approximately 70,000 screenings, which is about a 50% increase over second quarter 2011.”

Mr. Parker continued, "Looking to the remainder of this year, we expect to end 2012 with year-over-year growth in the fourth quarter, along with profitability, and we believe we are positioned for sustained profitability in 2013.”
