Graymark Healthcare Reports Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

Graymark Announces Cost Reduction Plan for 2013 of More Than $2 Million


OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 13, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Graymark Healthcare, Inc. (OTCQB:GRMH), the nation's second largest provider of diagnostic sleep services and an innovator in comprehensive care for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

"Today, Graymark Healthcare announced that it entered into a definitive agreement for an equity investment from a newly formed entity, Oklahoma Health Partners (OHP). OHP intends to purchase 1,444,445 shares of Graymark's common stock for $650,000. The Graymark team greatly appreciates this vote of confidence from OHP," said Stanton Nelson, CEO of Graymark Healthcare. The funds will be used for general purposes as the Graymark management team executes its plan to right-size the Company.

Mr. Nelson added, "We recently initiated a cost reduction plan that is expected to save the company approximately $2.0 million in 2013. In addition to the cost reductions, which include reductions in our labor force, corporate expenses and bad debt expense, we are developing a plan to identify and close underperforming lab locations."

Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

Net revenues in the third quarter of 2012 were $4.3 million, decreasing 4.3% from $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average reimbursement per sleep study and lower product sales due to a reduced number of CPAP set-ups and reduced reimbursement levels for both CPAP set-ups and re-supply shipments due to patient mix fluctuations.

During the third quarter of 2012, the company continued to focus on increasing patient sleep study volumes by increasing referral levels and referral conversion rates, maximizing the use of available capacity and compressing the elapsed time between referral receipt and rendering of service. As a result, sleep study volume increased 1.9% to 4,247 studies from 4,185 in second quarter of 2012. Net services revenues in the third quarter of 2012 were $3.2 million, decreasing 3.7% from $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2011. primarily due to the continued shift of patients to hospital/outreach facilities which have lower average revenue per sleep study, but higher net earnings due to lower facility and other fixed overhead costs.

Net revenues from Graymark's sleep therapy business were $1.1 million, decreasing 6.0% from $1.2 million in the year-ago quarter. The decrease was due to a reduction in CPAP set-ups along with a decline in reimbursement levels for both CPAP set-ups and re-supply shipments due to patient mix fluctuations. Re-supply volume increased 10.7% to 3,443 packages shipped, compared to 3,110 shipped in the year-ago quarter. We experienced a 1.8% decrease in therapy revenue sequentially compared to second quarter of 2012 due to a sequential decrease in set-up volume compared to the second quarter of 2012.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.2 million or 6.1% to $3.5 million, compared to $3.3 million in the year-ago quarter primarily due to nonrecurring legal fees and other expenses associated with the Foundation transaction of $0.3 million

Loss from continuing operations, net of taxes, were $2.0 million the third quarter of 2012, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $1.6 million in the year-ago quarter. Net loss attributable to Graymark was $2.2 million or $(0.15) per share in the third quarter of 2012, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million or $(0.10) per share in the year-ago quarter.

EBITDA from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2012 was a loss of $1.4 million, compared to a loss of $1.0 million in the year-ago quarter (see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for the definition and an important discussion of this non-GAAP financial measure).

At the end of the third quarter of 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $0.1 million, compared to $4.9 million at December 31, 2011.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Graymark is providing EBITDA from continuing operations information, which is defined as net income from continuing operations plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses (including impairment of goodwill), as a complement to GAAP results. EBITDA is commonly used by management and investors as a measure of leverage capacity, debt service ability and liquidity. EBITDA is not considered a measure of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and the items excluded from EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the company's financial performance. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or superior to, such GAAP measures as net income, cash flows provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the company's consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures are provided in this news release in the accompanying tables. Since EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
