BASKING RIDGE, N.J., July 28, 2005 -- Hooper Holmes, Inc. (HH) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005.
Total revenues for the quarter increased 2.5% to $84.9 million compared to $82.8 million in the second quarter of 2004. Net income was $3.4 million or $0.05 per diluted share, the same as in the second quarter of the prior year.
Second quarter 2005 revenues for the Company's Health Information Division (HID) were $74.7, an increase of 4% over the $71.8 million reported in the second quarter 2004. The HID's second quarter 2005 performance was attributable to:
-- A $5.1 million revenue contribution from Mid-America Agency Services
(MAAS), our outsourced underwriting business acquired on May 1, 2004
(this represented an increase of $3 million over the 2004 second
quarter amount, which included only two months of operations);
-- Medicals Direct, our UK subsidiary, which increased revenues by 11% to
$11.1 million, the result of aggressive expansion efforts and select
small acquisitions made in 2004;
-- Heritage Labs, which generated 29% revenue growth to $5.3 million, due
to additional market share gains;
-- Infolink, which increased revenues by 11% to approximately $8.1 million
attributable to the continued success of its call center; and
-- A decline in Portamedic revenues of $3.2 million to $45 million, down
6.7% compared to $48.2 million in the same period last year.
Revenues for the Company's Claims Evaluation Division (CED) were $10.2 million, compared to $11.0 million for the second quarter of 2004. The decrease was primarily a result of reduced claims activity in the primary markets in which we have focused to date due to both regulatory and customer practice changes.
Jim McNamee, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hooper Holmes, stated, "Our second quarter results are inline with our expectations and represent a solid performance given the ongoing reorganization activities and the current market conditions. While our Portamedic unit's operating results continue to reflect the decline in life insurance application activity and downward pricing pressure, we are extremely pleased with the performance of our other business units, particularly Heritage Labs, which improved revenues 29% year-over-year for the quarter, and Medicals Direct and Infolink, which both increased revenues 11% over the second quarter of the prior year."
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, revenues increased 2.8% to $167.4 million from $162.8 million in last year's comparable period. Net income was $5.8 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $6.4 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the first half of last year.
Mr. McNamee concluded, "We are modifying our revenue guidance and affirming our earnings guidance for the full year 2005. We now expect to generate revenues in the range of $340 million to $350 million, reflecting anticipated revenue growth in all businesses except our Portamedic business. We continue our reorganization initiatives and we continue to expect diluted earnings per share to grow 15-20% above 2004 levels."
Hooper Holmes will host a conference call tomorrow to discuss second quarter results at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The call will be broadcast live over the Internet, and is accessible at the Company's website located at http://www.hooperholmes.com.
