Healthcare Services Group, Inc. Reports Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and Announces Increased First Quart...
April 17 2018 - 4:05PM
Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HCSG) (the “Company”)
reported that revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018
increased to $501.8 million compared to $404.5 million for the same
period in 2017.
Net income for the three months ended March 31,
2018 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per basic and diluted common share.
The decline from the prior three month period ended March 31, 2017
related to the Company’s first quarter 2018 increase in its
accounts receivable allowance, primarily related to corporate
restructurings of two privately-held, multi-state operators, as
discussed in the Company’s press release on April 16, 2018.
In addition, our Board of Directors declared a
quarterly cash dividend of $0.19250 per common share, payable on
June 29, 2018 to shareholders of record at the close of
business on May 25, 2018. This represents the 60th consecutive
quarterly cash dividend payment, as well as the 59th consecutive
increase since our initiation of quarterly cash dividend payments
in 2003.
The Company will host a conference call on
Wednesday, April 18, 2018 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss
its results for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The call may
be accessed via phone at 800-893-5360. The call will be
simultaneously webcast under the “Events & Presentations”
section of the investor relations page on our website,
www.hcsg.com. A replay of the earnings call may be accessed through
the phone number above through 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time on
Wednesday, April 18, 2018. The webcast will also be available
on our website for one year following the date of the earnings
call.
The Company also announced that it will be
attending the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Healthcare Conference
on May 15, 2018, at Encore at the Wynn, Las Vegas, the UBS Global
Healthcare Conference on May 23, 2018, the Baird 2018 Global
Consumer, Technology & Services Conference on June 5, 2018, as
well as the Jefferies Healthcare Conference on June 6, 2018, at the
Grand Hyatt New York, New York.
Cautionary Statement Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
This release and any schedules incorporated by
reference into it may contain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
which are not historical facts but rather are based on current
expectations, estimates and projections about our business and
industry, and our beliefs and assumptions. Words such as
“believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “will,” “goal,” and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. The inclusion of forward-looking statements should not
be regarded as a representation by us that any of our plans will be
achieved. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise
any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise. Such forward-looking
information is also subject to various risks and uncertainties.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, risks
arising from our providing services exclusively to the healthcare
industry, primarily providers of long-term care; having a
significant portion of our consolidated revenues contributed by one
customer during the three months ended March 31, 2018; credit
and collection risks associated with this industry; our claims
experience related to workers’ compensation and general liability
insurance; the effects of changes in, or interpretations of laws
and regulations governing the industry, our workforce and services
provided, including state and local regulations pertaining to the
taxability of our services and other labor-related matters such as
minimum wage increases; continued realization of tax benefits
arising from our corporate reorganization and self-funded health
insurance program; risks associated with the reorganization of our
corporate structure; realization of our expectations regarding the
impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on our financial results; and
the risk factors described in Part I of our Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 under “Government Regulation of
Clients,” “Competition” and “Service Agreements and Collections,”
and under Item IA. “Risk Factors” in such Form 10-K.
These factors, in addition to delays in payments
from clients and/or clients in bankruptcy or clients with which we
are in litigation to collect payment, have resulted in, and could
continue to result in, significant additional bad debts in the near
future. Additionally, our operating results would be adversely
affected if unexpected increases in the costs of labor and
labor-related costs, materials, supplies and equipment used in
performing services could not be passed on to our clients.
In addition, we believe that to improve our
financial performance we must continue to obtain service agreements
with new clients, retain and provide new services to existing
clients, achieve modest price increases on current service
agreements with existing clients and maintain internal cost
reduction strategies at our various operational levels.
Furthermore, we believe that our ability to sustain the internal
development of managerial personnel is an important factor
impacting future operating results and the successful execution of
our projected growth
strategies.
Healthcare Services Group, Inc. is the largest
national provider of professional housekeeping, laundry and dietary
services to long-term care and related health care facilities.
