MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Continucare Corporation (AMEX:CNU) today reported financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2008. Financial highlights for the quarter include:

• Total revenue of $65.9 million, a 9% increase compared to $60.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2007;
• Income from operations of $6.1 million, a 231% increase compared to $1.8 million for the same quarter last year;
• Net income of $3.7 million, a 220% increase compared to $1.1 million for the same quarter last year; and
• Earnings per diluted share increased to $0.05 compared to $0.02 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2007.

For the nine-months ended March 31, 2008, total revenue increased 24% to $188.3 million compared to $151.7 million in the same period one year ago. Income from operations during the fiscal 2008 nine-month period increased 109% to $12.9 million compared to $6.1 million for the same period one year ago. Net income for the fiscal 2008 nine-month period increased 107% to $8.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to $3.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the prior year period.

Continucare’s cash and cash equivalents increased to $12.7 million at March 31, 2008 from $7.3 million at June 30, 2007, while working capital increased to $22.3 million at March 31, 2008 from $17.5 million at June 30, 2007. Total liabilities decreased to $12.6 million at March 31, 2008 from $12.9 million at June 30, 2007. Shareholders’ equity was $107.6 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $104.1 million at June 30, 2007.

“Record revenues and a 231% increase in operating profit highlight another outstanding quarter and reinforce our proven track record of solid financial performance,” said Richard C. Pfenniger, Jr., Continucare’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The most significant driver to the gain in operating profit was the improvement in our medical expense ratio which reflects improved utilization outcomes and increased operating efficiencies. Cash flow during the quarter was strong and our balance sheet remained virtually free of long-term indebtedness. We continue to be optimistic about our prospects and consistent with this view have actively pursued the repurchase of our shares.”
