MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Health Fitness Corporation
(OTC Bulletin Board: HFIT) today announced financial results for the second
quarter and six months ended June 30, 2003.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, revenue was $7,732,626, up $1,045,818
or 15.6% over revenue of $6,686,808 for the same quarter last year. Earnings
before income taxes for the quarter were $356,039, an increase of $113,323 or
46.7% from $242,716 for the same quarter last year. Net earnings for the
quarter were $217,333, down $553,855 or 71.8% from $771,188 for the same
quarter last year. The decline in net earnings is primarily due to the second
quarter of 2002 including a $625,300 deferred tax benefit related to the
reversal of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, revenue increased $1,876,629, or
14.0%, to $15,250,831, compared to $13,374,202 for the same period in 2002.
Earnings before income taxes were $806,049, up $267,640 or 49.7% from $538,409
for the same period last year. Net earnings decreased $1,073,196 or 69.0% to
$485,313 compared to $1,558,509 for the same period in 2002. The decline in
net earnings is primarily due to the first six months of 2002 including a
$1,250,600 deferred tax benefit related to the reversal of a deferred tax
asset valuation allowance.
CEO and President Jerry Noyce said the revenue growth over last year is
primarily the result of new management contracts obtained during 2002 and
2003. He also stated the Company is beginning to see ancillary revenue growth
from its branded Health Enhancement Programs, which promotes personal
training, massage therapy, weight management and other health and wellness
programs and services. The Company began marketing its suite of Health
Enhancement Program services to existing customers at the beginning of 2003.
"Contract gross profit as a percent of revenue fell about 1.3% for the
quarter and 0.7% year to date compared to the same periods last year," Noyce
said. "This decrease is primarily due to start-up costs for two new corporate
fitness centers where we agreed to assume full profit and loss responsibility.
As membership revenues increase at these centers, we will experience a
positive change in this profit measurement. Operating expenses, which
increased on a dollar basis as a result of strategic headcount additions to
improve our sales and marketing capabilities, are decreasing as a percent of
revenue. This trend is expected to continue as we leverage the cost of our
management infrastructure over additional contracts."
"In addition," Noyce concluded, "lower debt levels and interest rates has
resulted in substantial interest expense reductions over last year, which has
contributed to our significant improvement in earnings before taxes. Most
importantly, we continue to be on track with our revenue growth and market
share goals, as well as our profitability objectives."
