Psychemedics Corporation Announces First Quarter Earnings
ACTON, Mass., April 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Psychemedics Corporation (NASDAQ: PMD) today announced first quarter financial results for the period ended March 31, 2015. The Company also announced a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share payable to shareholders of record as of May 8, 2015 to be paid on May 18, 2015. This will be the Company's 75th consecutive quarterly dividend.
The Company's revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $6.75 million versus $7.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of 4%. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $278 thousand or $0.05 per diluted share, versus $756 thousand or $0.14 per diluted share, for the comparable period last year.
Raymond C. Kubacki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said,
"Revenue for the quarter was down slightly from last year. This was driven primarily by a major slowdown in hiring in a few sectors of the economy and less than solid growth in other business sectors. Two headlines in the April 1st edition of USA Today captured our experience in the first quarter --- "Falling Oil Prices Cost 100K Jobs" and "Jobs News Not As Good As It Sounds." The good news is that we have not lost any significant clients and we continue to gain new clients.
"As I have previously reported, we believe we have a very exciting opportunity in Brazil. The Brazilian Federal Government had passed regulations that would require professional drivers in the transportation industry to pass a hair drug test when obtaining or renewing their driver's license. This testing was to begin in July 2014, but was delayed while a proposed law that required drivers be drug tested on a more rigorous basis than the requirements under the regulation was being considered. As we noted in our 2014 annual report, the law has now passed by the Brazilian Congress and signed by the President in March 2015, and testing is expected to begin in June 2015.
"This is an exciting opportunity. However, in order to service this potential volume, we have made significant investments in plant, equipment and people. The impact from these investments in the first quarter of 2015 was estimated at $0.05 per diluted share. Earnings were also impacted by an increased investment in Sales & Marketing, with additional personnel and additional support for strategic information systems.
"Our balance sheet remains strong with $2.7 million of cash. Our directors share our confidence in the long-term future of Psychemedics and remain committed to rewarding shareholders and sharing the financial success of the Company with them as we move forward. Therefore, the Board has declared a $0.15 dividend for the quarter. This is our 75th consecutive quarterly dividend."
Psychemedics Corporation is the world's largest provider of hair testing for the detection of drugs of abuse. With its patented process, the Company has served thousands of U.S. and international clients, including over 10% of the Fortune 500 companies, for pre-employment and random drug testing. Major police departments, Federal Reserve Banks, schools, and other public entities also rely on our unique patented drug testing process. We strongly believe our drug testing method to be superior to any other product currently in use, including traditional urine testing and other hair testing methods.
