TeamStaff Announces First Fiscal Quarter 2005 Financial Results

Somerset, NJ — February 14, 2005 — TeamStaff, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSTF), one of the nation's leading providers of healthcare staffing and specialty payroll services, today announced financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. As a result of TeamStaff's sale of its Professional Employer Organization (PEO) segment, all results reported in this release have been reclassified to show PEO and certain related corporate expenses as discontinued operations.

TeamStaff's revenues from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2004 were $10.2 million, which was comprised of $8.9 million from medical staffing services and $1.3 million from payroll services. This is compared to $9.7 million in the comparable quarter last year which was comprised of $8.4 million from medical staffing services and $1.3 million from payroll services. Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 include $1.6 million related to the acquisition of Nursing Innovations, which occurred on November 14, 2004.

Commenting on the state of the medical staffing industry, TeamStaff's President and CEO, T. Kent Smith, stated, "We are starting to see an increase in demand for travel nurses. Our acquisition of Nursing Innovations was timely and provides us with a great opportunity to capitalize on that return in demand. We continue to focus on additional travel nurse acquisitions so as to broaden our product offering, realize scale efficiencies, and better meet our clients' needs."

Mr. Smith went on to say, "We have yet to see a return in demand for our radiation therapy services. Hospitals' preference remains to use travelers as a last resort -- after first filling the needs themselves with signing bonuses, partnering with schools, paying for tuition, or joining purchasing associations. However, we still remain optimistic that allied will experience a pickup in demand similar to that experienced in our nursing segment. We believe that many of the business fundamentals —including a growing demand for healthcare services driven by demographic trends – will create a favorable long term growth environment for TeamStaff. And, since there are fewer supply constraints in allied as compared to nursing, filling orders in that segment should be much easier."

Gross profit was $2.6 million, or 25.4% of revenues, in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared to $2.2 million, or 22.9% of revenues, in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The increase in gross profit percentage relates predominantly to more prudent expense management in our medical staffing division.

Operating expenses were $3.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. This represents no increase from the first quarter of fiscal 2004 despite the $0.2 million of operating expenses absorbed by the acquisition of Nursing Innovations during the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Loss from continuing operations was $0.4 million, or ($0.02) per share, compared to a loss of $0.5 million, or ($0.04) per share, in the same quarter of last year. Net loss, including discontinued




operations, was $0.6 million, or ($0.03) per share, compared to a net loss of $1.8 million, or ($0.12) per share, in the first quarter of last year. The net loss was affected by a $0.2 million, or ($0.01) per share, loss and $1.3 million, or ($0.08) per share, loss from discontinued operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, respectively.

Business Outlook

The slower than expected rebound in demand for TeamStaff's allied healthcare staffing services coupled with difficulty in gauging the timing of the successful completion of complementary acquisitions, which are a significant part of TeamStaff's growth strategy, led TeamStaff to withdraw its prior fiscal year 2005 guidance. TeamStaff had previously estimated that its fiscal year 2005 revenues would be between $67 million and $70 million, net income from continuing operations would be between $0.6 million and $0.9 million with corresponding earnings per share of $0.03 to $0.05 per share.

Commenting on TeamStaff's decision, Mr. Smith stated, "While we continue to work on a number of initiatives to grow our business both organically and through acquisitions, we feel that the market for temporary healthcare personnel continues to be characterized by extraordinary change as it recovers from the downturn it experienced over the past few years.. The current relative unpredictability of the market, the delay in a return of the demand for our radiation therapy staffing services, the timing of execution on our acquisition strategy and other factors all compelled us to withdraw our prior guidance. At this point in time, we feel there are too many factors and uncertainties for us to provide an updated estimate of our full fiscal year results."
