Atlanta, Georgia - February 13, 2013-DLH Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: DLHC), a leading healthcare and logistics services provider to the Federal Government, including the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs, announced today financial results for its first quarter ended December 31, 2012.

For the Three Months Ended
December 31,
($ in thousands, except per share amounts) 2012 2011
Operating revenues $     12,994 $     11,495

Other Data

Commenting on the Company's results, President and Chief Executive Officer of DLH, Zachary Parker stated:  "DLH's first quarter results demonstrate continued progress in executing our strategy and driving value back into the company.  During the quarter we delivered solid revenue and generated positive cash flow from operations even as revenue growth drove greater working capital needs . In addition, our margins have improved as a function of our enhanced program management and performance excellence initiatives that we implemented towards the end of Fiscal 2012."

Parker added, "We began our fiscal year 2013 (FY13) with the assumption that the federal government would continue to operate on a continuing resolution (CR) rather than an approved budget for our entire fiscal year, which has so far been the outcome.  As such, we have assumed that government customers would have no new funding for new contract awards.  Combined with the uncertainties around "sequestration" we anticipated continued paralysis with regard to new business awards within DoD and most federal agencies. However, we remain confident in our strategy to focus on our country's high priority mission programs and agencies.  We continue to see new business opportunities and maintain a healthy pipeline for the future growth of the company."

Parker concluded: "Looking ahead, we continue to be sharply focused on Project LEAN, which drives structural costs out of the business, and enhancing our competitiveness for the future.  These changes to the business are not only essential at this stage of the company's transformation, but also are well suited during this period of fiscal uncertainty for our government. With Project LEAN well underway, we expect that its full effects should be seen in the coming quarters. This gives us the confidence that we are on the right track towards reaching our goal of delivering profitability in fiscal 2013 and beyond."

Chief Financial Officer, Kathryn JohnBull commented:  "As Zach stated, the Company always strives to attain the most cost efficient environment both internally and externally. Although there are numerous risks facing us, as described below, we believe the Company is on track to achieve our financial goals and objectives for FY13 and we will remain focused on sustaining our improvements, including positive adjusted EBITDA, throughout the upcoming quarters."

Results for Three Months Ended December 31, 2012

Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2012 increased 13.0% to $13.0 million compared to $11.5 million in the same period in fiscal 2012.   The increase in revenue is due primarily to expansion on current programs, as well as the full quarter impact of new business awards received during the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Gross profit increased 14.1%, from $1.6 million to $1.8 million in fiscal 2012 and 2013, respectively, due largely to improved contract performance.

G&A expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $1.85 million and $1.76 million, respectively, an increase of 5.4%.  This increase is principally due to the timing of expenses for outside professional services in the respective periods.  

Loss from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $0.1 million as compared to loss from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2011 of $0.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $29,000 as compared to ($16,000) for the three months ended December 31, 2011, due principally to the increased gross profit described above.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) to net loss from continuing operations

  1. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental non-GAAP measure of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss from continuing operations plus (i) interest and other income/expenses, net, (ii) provision for or benefit from income taxes, if any, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) G&A expenses - equity grants, and (v) impairment charges. This non-GAAP measure of our performance is used by management to conduct and evaluate its business during its regular review of operating results for the periods presented. Management and the Company's Board utilize this non-GAAP measure to make decisions about the use of the Company's resources, analyze performance between periods, develop internal projections and measure management performance. We believe that this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors in evaluating the Company's ongoing operating and financial results and understanding how such results compare with the Company's historical performance. By providing this non-GAAP measure, as a supplement to GAAP information, we believe we are enhancing investors' understanding of our business and our results of operations. This non-GAAP financial measure is limited in its usefulness and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, US GAAP financial measures. Further, this non-GAAP measure may be unique to the Company, as it may be different from the definition of non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA with net loss from continuing operations is as follows: 

For the Three Months Ended
December 31,
2012 2011
Net loss  $     (128)  $       (389)
(i) interest and other expenses (net)                34               179
(ii) provision for taxes  -  -
(iii) amortization and depreciation                33                 23
(iv) G&A expenses - equity grants                90               171
Adjusted EBITDA $         29 $         (16)
