Continucare Corporation Reports Strong Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 7, 2011--Continucare Corporation (NYSE: CNU) today reported strong financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. Financial and operational highlights for the quarter include:

  • Total revenue increased 12% to $88.5 million, compared to $79.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010;
  • Income from operations was $7.6 million, compared to $9.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010;
  • Net income was $4.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to $5.7 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010;
  • In June, Continucare entered into a definitive merger agreement with Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc. whereby Metropolitan will acquire Continucare in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $416 million; and
  • Excluding $2.4 million of expenses incurred during the quarter related to the pending merger with Metropolitan, adjusted income from operations and net income increased to $10.0 million and $6.1 million (or $0.10 per diluted share), respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Full Year Results

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, total revenue increased 7% to $333.5 million compared to $310.8 million in the prior fiscal year. Income from operations for fiscal 2011 increased to $37.4 million compared to $36.1 million for fiscal 2010. Net income for fiscal 2011 increased to $23.9 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared to $22.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share for fiscal 2010. Excluding $2.5 million of expenses incurred during fiscal 2011 related to the pending merger with Metropolitan, adjusted income from operations and net income increased to $39.9 million and $25.5 million (or $0.41 per diluted share), respectively, compared to fiscal 2010.

Balance Sheet

Continucare’s cash and cash equivalents increased to $50.5 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $37.5 million at June 30, 2010, while working capital increased to $64.9 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $49.5 million at June 30, 2010. Total liabilities were $18.9 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $17.8 million at June 30, 2010. Shareholders’ equity increased to $162.0 million at June 30, 2011 from $136.0 million at June 30, 2010.


“Our track record of consistent improvement in operating results continued in our fourth quarter,” said Richard C. Pfenniger, Jr., Continucare’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Revenues and operating income, excluding expenses related to our pending merger with Metropolitan Health Networks, exceeded the prior fiscal year’s fourth quarter results, marking our 17th consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement. In addition, our balance sheet continued to strengthen with our cash and working capital positions reaching new record levels at fiscal year-end while our balance sheet remained virtually free of long-term debt.”

Definitive Merger Agreement with Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc.

On June 27, 2011, Continucare announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement providing for the merger of Continucare with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc. (NYSE Amex: MDF) in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $416 million at the time of the announcement. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each holder of an outstanding share of Continucare common stock will receive $6.25 per share in cash, and 0.0414 of a share of Metropolitan common stock, which, based upon the share price at the time of announcement, is equal to approximately $0.20. The exact value of the consideration per share will depend on Metropolitan’s share price at closing. The merger is subject to the satisfaction of the closing conditions contained in the merger agreement. Continucare’s shareholders approved the proposed merger at a Special Meeting of Shareholders on August 22, 2011. Continucare currently expects to complete the merger on or about the end of September 2011.

Except for historical matters contained herein, statements made in this press release are forward-looking and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors and others are cautioned that forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may affect our business and prospects and cause our actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements including the following: risks relating to the completion of the merger transaction with Metropolitan Health Networks; our operations are dependent on three health maintenance organizations; under our most important contracts we are responsible for the cost of medical services to our patients in return for a capitated fee; our revenues will be affected by the Medicare Risk Adjustment program; if we are unable to manage medical benefits expense effectively, our profitability will likely be reduced; a failure to estimate incurred but not reported medical benefits expense accurately will affect our profitability; we compete with many health care providers for patients and HMO affiliations; we may not be able to successfully recruit or retain existing relationships with qualified physicians and medical professionals; our business exposes us to the risk of medical malpractice lawsuits; we primarily operate in Florida; a significant portion of our voting power is concentrated; we are dependent on our executive officers and other key employees; we depend on the management information systems of our affiliated HMOs; we depend on our information processing systems; the volatility of our stock price; a failure to successfully implement our business strategy could materially and adversely affect our operations and growth opportunities; our intangible assets represent a substantial portion of our total assets; competition for acquisition targets and acquisition financing and other factors may impede our ability to acquire other businesses and may inhibit our growth; our acquisitions could result in integration difficulties, unexpected expenses, diversion of management’s attention and other negative consequences; recently enacted health care reform, including The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, could have a material adverse effect on our business; a decrease to our Medicare capitation payments may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows; we are subject to government regulation; the health care industry is subject to continued scrutiny; our insurance coverage may not be adequate, and rising insurance premiums could negatively affect our profitability; deficit spending and economic downturns could negatively impact our results of operations; and many factors that increase health care costs are largely beyond our ability to control. These and other applicable risks, cautionary statements and factors that could cause actual results to differ from our forward-looking statements are included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and other filings with the SEC and we urge you to read those documents.
