Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. Announces Earnings For 1Q 2013

DENVER, May 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. (NASDAQ Capital Market: BDMS), operators of PERFECT TEETH® dental practices, announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, revenue increased $405,000, or 2.5%, to $16.6 million. The Company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and non-cash expense associated with stock-based compensation ("Adjusted EBITDA") decreased $27,000, or 1.9%, to $1.4 million. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 decreased $67,000, or 21.9%, to $241,000 compared to $309,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Earnings per share decreased to $0.13 for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 compared to $0.17 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

As previously announced, in January 2013, the Company changed the operating strategy of its Vantage Dental Implant Center ("Vantage"). Vantage will no longer provide All-on-4™ services to its patients, and the Company has converted Vantage into a traditional Perfect Teeth specialty office providing oral surgery and endodontic services. For the quarter ended March 31, 2012, revenue from All-on-4™ services was approximately $200,000. The Company had no revenue from these services in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 because of the change in operating strategy.

The Company has signed a lease for a de novo office in the Loveland, Colorado market and anticipates this office will open early in the third quarter of 2013.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company had capital expenditures of $492,000, paid out approximately $405,000 in dividends to its shareholders and decreased total bank debt outstanding by approximately $674,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company converted two of its offices to digital radiography.

Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. acquires, develops, and manages geographically dense dental practice networks in select markets in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. The Company currently manages 65 dental offices, of which 37 were acquired and 28 were de novo developments. The Company currently has 123 dentists. The Company operates its dental offices under the PERFECT TEETH® name.

The Company previously announced it would conduct a conference call to review results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 on Thursday, May 9, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. MT.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is not a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP") measure of performance or liquidity. However, the Company believes that it may be useful to an investor in evaluating the Company's ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements, and the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose. Investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income can be made by adding depreciation and amortization expense - Offices, depreciation and amortization expense – Corporate, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, net and income tax expense to net income as in the table below.
