KAD Arcadia Resources Common Stock

Arcadia Resources, Inc. (NYSE Amex: KAD), a leading provider of innovative consumer health care services under the Arcadia HealthCare℠ brand, today announced fiscal 2011 third quarter net revenues of $26.2 million and a consolidated net loss of $2.3 million, or $0.01 per share, which compares to net revenue of $25.7 million and a consolidated net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.02 per share, for the same period in fiscal 2010.

“During the third quarter our operating results improved in both our Pharmacy and Services segments,” said Marvin R. Richardson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Arcadia. “In our Pharmacy segment, we saw substantial growth in active patients, solid growth in our core DailyMed revenue, and progress towards overall segment profitability as we continue to leverage our SG&A compared to the prior quarter. In our Services segment, we saw an increase in revenue and margins compared to the prior quarter and consistent operating contribution. We expect continued improvement during fiscal fourth quarter.”

“We remain in on-going discussions with several large managed care payors who have a strong interest in using DailyMed to improve patient outcomes and manage escalating health care costs. Additionally, we have expanded our market reach for DailyMed into the growing market for transitional care with the addition of pilot programs with highly respected transitional care providers, including Cleveland Clinic. As such, we now have a broader range of opportunities going forward to grow our revenue from both the dispensing of drugs as well as pharmacy services,” Richardson said.

Fiscal 2011 Third Quarter Results

Arcadia reported $26.2 million in revenue from continuing operations during the quarter, up from $25.7 million during the same period a year ago. The Company’s gross margin from continuing operations was 27.6% during the third quarter, a decline of 0.8% from the same period a year ago. The reduction in gross margin was driven by a shift in mix towards Pharmacy revenue, which has lower margins than the Company’s Services segment. For the second quarter of fiscal 2011, revenues and gross margin from continuing operations were $25.8 million and 27.3%, respectively.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) from continuing operations were a negative $1.7 million during the quarter, an improvement of 13.4% over the prior year quarter of negative $1.9 million. EBITDA from continuing operations improved by $0.8 million, or 32.0%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

Arcadia reduced its net loss from continuing operations to $2.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $3.0 million, or $0.02 per share, in the same period in fiscal 2010. The consolidated net loss, including discontinued operations, was $2.3 million, or $0.01, in the fiscal third quarter in 2011 compared to a net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.02 in the fiscal third quarter in 2010. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the net loss from continuing operations and the consolidated net loss were $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Segment highlights:

Pharmacy: Pharmacy segment revenues increased to $5.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2011, an increase of 2.0% compared to $4.9 million in the previous quarter. Third quarter revenue increased 7.6% compared with the second quarter in the Company’s Indianapolis and California pharmacy locations. Quarter-over-quarter revenues were positively impacted by a 21% growth in active patient count, but were impacted negatively by the loss of certain customers at the Company’s Minnesota pharmacy and the conversion of brand name drugs to generics during the quarter. Pharmacy gross margins were 16.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to 15.6% in the prior quarter. While the Pharmacy experienced reimbursement pressure relating to its California patient base, the margin improvement reflects an increase in higher margin non-drug revenue and improved drug and packaging costs. The Pharmacy segment had an EBITDA loss of $1.4 million during the quarter, a 10.7% improvement compared to the EBITDA loss of $1.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

Pharmacy segment revenues of $5.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 increased 22.6% compared to $4.1 million in revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Pharmacy gross margins were 16.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to 17.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. EBITDA for the Pharmacy segment was a negative $1.4 million compared to a negative $1.2 million in the same quarter a year ago.

Services: The Company’s Services segment, which includes Arcadia’s home care and medical staffing business, reported net revenue of $21.1 million in the third quarter, an increase of 1.0% compared to net revenues of $20.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Home care revenues increased by $180,000, or 1.1%, to $17.0 million from $16.8 in the second quarter. Medical staffing and travel staffing revenue was $4.2 million during the third quarter compared to $4.1 million in the previous quarter. Total Services segment revenue was at its highest level since the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Gross margin within the Services segment was 30.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to 30.0% in the second quarter. The Services segment EBITDA for the third quarter was $1.3 million compared to $1.4 million for the second quarter.

Services segment net revenues of $21.1 million in the third quarter were down slightly compared to net revenues of $21.6 million for the third quarter a year ago. Home care revenues decreased by $124,000, or 0.7%, to $17.0 million from $17.1 million in the same period last year. Medical staffing and travel staffing revenue declined $300,000 to $4.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $4.5 million in the same period last year. Gross margin within the Services segment was 30.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to 30.5% in the same period last year. The Services segment EBITDA improved by 18.3%, or $0.2 million, to $1.3 million compared to the prior year quarter.

“These results continue to move us down the path of achieving profitability and becoming cash flow positive. We have seen steady improvement in our Services segment profitability, even though underlying market conditions remain challenging. In our Pharmacy segment, we continue to improve our EBITDA quarter over quarter through higher sales, increased fee for service revenue and operating efficiencies. Our progress is steady and we expect to accelerate the rate of improvement in future quarters,” Richardson commented.

The Company sold its former Catalog segment during the quarter and the Catalog’s operating results are included in discontinued operations.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash flow from operations during the third fiscal quarter improved by $1.1 million to negative $2.3 million compared to negative $3.4 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2011, inclusive of changes in operating assets and liabilities in each quarter of negative $0.9 million and negative $1.1 million, respectively.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had total cash plus line-of-credit availability of $4.4 million. On November 2, 2010, the Company finalized a $4.6 million equity financing transaction, net of fees, whereby it sold 15,606,000 shares of common stock at $0.32 per share. The additional cash will be used to fund and grow the DailyMed operations.

The Company previously announced that it had entered into a new credit facility with Comerica Bank covering its Services segment. The amendment changed certain terms of the agreement, including extension of the maturity date until April 2012, and required a $500,000 increase to the restricted cash account used to collateralize the debt balance.

“While we are continuing to manage our short-term cash flows carefully, we are focused on how we deal with the debt that matures in April 2012. We are exploring a variety of alternatives for handling these debt maturities and we intend to have a plan in place over the next several months,” said Matt Middendorf, Chief Financial Officer.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Arcadia reports non-GAAP financial results. Arcadia’s management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide supplemental information that facilitates comparisons to prior periods. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate its financial results, develop budgets and manage expenditures. The method Arcadia uses to produce non-GAAP results is likely to differ from the methods used by other companies and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which are attached to this release.

Specifically, the Company presents EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure. EBITDA represents income (loss) from operations. The Company presents EBITDA because it is a measure management believes is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and interested parties in the evaluation of financial performance. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and securities analysts, investors and interested parties should not consider any of these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.
