EXHIBIT 99
CHICAGO, Aug. 3, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Standard Parking Corporation (Nasdaq:STAN), one of the nation's leading providers of parking management, ground transportation and other ancillary services, today announced second quarter 2011 results. Net income attributable to the Company was $4.5 million and earnings per share was $0.28, unchanged from the year ago second quarter. Second quarter earnings per share grew 7%, to $0.30, excluding the $0.02 per share impact of costs related to an acquisition the Company ultimately did not pursue. The Company generated $16.1 million of free cash flow in the first half of 2011, $16.1 million more than the same period of 2010.
Comments
James A. Wilhelm, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I'm pleased to report a successful second quarter with results that were in line with expectations. With a 4% increase in our revenue and a 10% increase in paid exits at same location leases, we believe that the improving trends we noted in the past several quarters are continuing. Total gross profit decreased by 3%, as a 3% increase in same location gross profit was more than offset by the impact of certain anticipated location terminations. Our location and operating profit retention remain strong at 91% and 96% respectively. On the expense side, we're pleased to note that our G&A expense for the second quarter decreased by 5% as we continue to reap the benefits of the technology and process enhancements that we've spoken about repeatedly in the past. In fact, the second quarter G&A decrease would have been 9% had we not spent $0.4 million in the quarter for acquisition-related expenses on a transaction that we did not pursue. While this particular transaction did not proceed, we remain focused on enhancing our underlying, organic growth through significant strategic acquisitions."
Commenting on the Company's recently announced $20 million share repurchase authorization, Wilhelm stated, "We believe our current share price is significantly undervalued, and that buying Company shares therefore is one of the best current uses of our substantial free cash flow. For the year-to-date through the end of July, we have repurchased $2.2 million of common stock. Our relatively low cost of capital, low leverage and strong balance sheet, coupled with ongoing confidence in the business, enable us to return value to our shareholders through the share repurchases while we pursue strategic acquisitions."
Wilhelm concluded by stating, "Based on our first-half results and expectations for the remainder of the year, we're reaffirming our earnings per share guidance of $1.10 - $1.20. With strong first-half free cash flow, we're now expecting full year free cash flow to exceed $20 million."
Recent Developments
Highlights on municipal, institutional and event venue wins:
First Half Results
Gross profit for the first half of 2011 increased by 1% to $42.2 million from $41.9 million for the same period of 2010. Same location gross profit increased by 6%, but the effect of terminated locations, non-recurring Gameday events and costs incurred to close out a long-term lease reduced the overall gross profit increase.
G&A expense in the first half of 2011 decreased 4% to $22.8 million from $23.8 million a year earlier. The previously described $0.4 million in 2011 acquisition-related costs tempered the year-over-year decrease. The Company believes that its G&A expense for the second half of 2011 will be comparable to the first half.
Net income attributable to the Company increased by 13% to $8.3 million in 2011 as compared with $7.4 million in the first six months of 2010. On a per share basis, the year-over-year increase was also 13%, up from $0.46 in 2010 to $0.52 in 2011.
2011 Outlook
Based on year-to-date results, the Company re-affirms its full-year earnings per share guidance in the range of $1.10 to $1.20. Updating its prior free cash flow guidance of $15 - $20 million, the Company now expects free cash flow in excess of $20 million. This guidance does not reflect the impact of any future acquisitions.

The Company defines free cash flow as net cash from operating activities, less cash used for investing activities (exclusive of acquisitions), plus the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. Due to the adoption, effective January 1, 2009, of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, Consolidation (formerly FAS 160), the calculation of Free Cash Flow has been modified to deduct for the distribution to noncontrolling interest, which was previously reported as part of net cash from operating activities.
