SOURCECORP Reports 4th Quarter and Year-End 2005 Operating Results

    DALLAS, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SOURCECORP, Inc.
(Nasdaq: SRCP), a leading provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) and
consulting solutions, today reported revenues from continuing operations for
the fourth quarter and full year 2005 of $98.0 million and $415.9 million
respectively.  Reported earnings per share from continuing operations for the
fourth quarter and full year 2005 were a loss of ($1.48) and income of $0.61
respectively.

    Fourth Quarter 2005 Operating Results
    The Company reported $98.0 million of revenue for the fourth quarter of
2005 compared to $92.0 million for the same quarter of the prior year, an
increase of 6.5 percent. The Company's fourth quarter 2005 revenue increase is
driven by strong contributions from our Information Distribution and Legal
service offerings.  Driven by excellent new project growth, our Legal service
offerings had a combined revenue increase of 23.9 percent.  The Information
Distribution service offering produced revenue growth of 7.8 percent, which
was driven by growth from current and new customers and the net impact of an
early termination fee.  Additionally, revenue in our Information Management
service offering rose 4.8 percent, with the healthcare payer and the mortgage
vertical markets showing continued strength.  Partially offsetting these
positive revenue trends was a revenue decline of 5.5 percent in our
HealthSERVE service offerings due primarily to customer discontinuances in the
release of information offering, and revenue losses related to Hurricane
Katrina of approximately $1.4 million.

    Significant Events
    The Company's reported results were also impacted by other significant
events, which are discussed below:

    Settlement Agreement
    As previously announced by the Company on December 28, 2005, the Company
received during the fourth quarter of 2005 the final payment (approximately
$8.2 million) that was owed the Company under the $30 million settlement
agreement it announced on September 27, 2005.  The settlement agreement
related to the Company's claims against former owners of the Company's
operating subsidiary that was the subject of its internal investigation and
financial restatement.

    Tax Expense
    Tax expense during the fourth quarter of 2005 includes a benefit of
approximately $1.4 million related to the favorable reduction of certain
federal and state tax contingencies.

    Goodwill Impairment
    In connection with the preparation and review of the Company's
consolidated financial statements for its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2005, the Company performed the annual goodwill
impairment test as of October 31, 2005 as required by SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets" and, as a result of such test, the Company's
management concluded, and the Company's Audit Committee concurred, that a non-
cash goodwill impairment charge of $38.3 million (approximately $33.3 million
after tax) was required, which was recorded in the quarter ended December 31,
2005.  The fourth quarter charge relates to the Company's HealthSERVE
reporting unit within the Healthcare, Regulatory and Legal Compliance
reportable segment.
    This impairment charge does not require current or future cash
expenditures and was identified to Apollo Management, L.P. and its acquisition
related affiliates prior to the entry into the Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of March 7, 2006, which was described in the Company's Current Report
on Form 8-K dated March 8, 2006, and discussed below.

    Earnings Per Share
    The Company reported a loss per share from continuing operations of
($1.48) for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to income of $0.11 per share
in Q4 of 2004. Excluding the impacts of the above described legal settlement,
goodwill impairment, net tax expense adjustment, and one-time legal and
regulatory expenses, earnings per share from continuing operations would have
been $0.25 compared to $0.15 in Q4 of 2004, as shown below.

    Full Year 2005 Operating Results
    For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the Company reported $415.9
million of revenue compared to $381.6 million in the prior year, an increase
of 9.0 percent.  During 2005, the Company recognized remediation revenue of
$8.1 million related to agreements the Company entered into with customers
impacted by the Company's 2004 internal investigation.  Excluding the
favorable impact of the remediation revenue, the Company achieved year over
year growth of 6.9 percent. The Company's full year revenue increase,
excluding remediation revenue, is driven by strong contributions from our
Legal and Information Management service offerings, which contributed 20.4
percent and 10.5 percent to growth, respectively.  The 20.4 percent revenue
increase from our Legal service offerings was a result of increased consulting
project work and greater mid to large sized projects in our Claims
Administration service offering.  The Information Management reporting unit's
10.5 percent contribution was largely attributable to improvements in the
government and mortgage vertical markets.  In contrast, the HealthSERVE
service offering's revenue declined 7.7 percent, in large part due to customer
attrition, collection issues and revenue losses related to Hurricane Katrina
in the release of information offering.

    Cash Flow and Debt
    The Company reported fourth quarter operating cash flow from continuing
operations of $22.9 million compared to $13.0 million during the same period
in 2004.  The current quarter includes approximately $8.2 million related to
the legal settlement discussed above.  The Company reported full year
operating cash flow from continuing operations of $63.8 million, including
approximately $28.2 million related to such legal settlement.
    Days sales outstanding were 44 business days compared to 47 business days
for the third quarter of 2005 and 45 days for the fourth quarter of 2004.
    During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company's debt outstanding
decreased to $38.1 million compared to $60.7 million as of September 30, 2005.
The Company's debt to total capital was approximately 11 percent at the end of
the fourth quarter of 2005.

    New Business Wins
    The Company entered into contracts with new customers, and generated new
business from existing customers and the renewal of existing customers'
contracts during the fourth quarter and the full year of 2005 with an
estimated total undiscounted contract value of approximately $34 million and
$247 million, respectively.
    The total estimated undiscounted value of contracts closed is an estimate
of the total expected revenue to be derived over the term of the contract
measured at the approximate time of contract execution.  The Company has not
undertaken, and does not undertake, to update such estimates over time.
Anticipated contract volumes and revenue routinely increase or decrease from
the date the contract is executed causing the contract value estimated at
contract execution to change, in some case by material amounts. Further,
contracts from time to time are subsequently partially or completely
terminated by us or by the customer, and such contracts may have represented a
large portion of the expected revenue estimated at the time of contract
execution.  As such, estimates on such dates may not represent current
estimates for such contracts.

    Potential Merger
    On March 8, 2006, the Company announced that it had entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 7, 2006 (the "Merger
Agreement"), among the Company, CorpSource Holdings, LLC ("Purchaser") and
CorpSource MergerSub, Inc. ("Merger Sub"). Purchaser and Merger Sub are
entities affiliated with Apollo Management, L.P. ("Apollo").  The Merger
Agreement contemplates that Merger Sub will be merged with and into the
Company (the "Merger") and each outstanding share of common stock of the
Company will be converted into the right to receive $25.00 per share in cash,
without interest.  The consummation of the Merger is subject to various
customary conditions, including adoption of the Merger Agreement by the
Company's stockholders, expiration of the antitrust waiting period, the
absence of a material adverse change in the Company's business and the receipt
of committed debt financing by Purchaser.  No assurance can be given that such
conditions will be satisfied or waived.
    The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties by the
Company, Purchaser and Merger Sub. The representations and warranties reflect
negotiations between the parties to the Merger Agreement and, in certain
cases, merely represent allocation decisions among the parties and may not be
statements of fact.  As such, the representations and warranties are solely
for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement and may be limited or
modified by a variety of factors, including: subsequent events, information
included in public filings, disclosures made during negotiations,
correspondence between the parties and disclosure schedules to the Merger
Agreement.  Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe
the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time
and you should not rely on them as statements of fact.
    Given the concurrent filing of the Company's detailed Annual Report on
Form 10-K, the Company does not intend to schedule an investor conference call
to discuss the Company's fourth quarter and year end results.
