STRM Streamline Health Solutions Inc

CINCINNATI, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:STRM) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months, ended July 31, 2009. Highlights for the quarter included: -- Company wins new hosting contract totaling nearly $1.0 million. -- Total Operating Expenses declined by 23%; -- Year-over-Year Backlog up 32%; -- Net loss of $(18,000) vs net loss of $(429,000) in Q2 2008; -- EPS: $(0.00) vs. $(0.05) in comparable quarter last year; -- Year-to-date operating income improves by $1.2 million; -- Achieve a significant milestone with delivery of our 5th generation architecture and multi-language capabilities to Canadian customer. Revenues for the second quarter of 2009 were $4.1 million compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter in 2008. Net loss for the quarter was $(18,000), or $(0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $(429,000), or $(0.05) per share, in the second quarter of 2009. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in revenues was a result of a decrease of approximately $845,000 in systems sales, and a $79,000 decrease in application hosting revenues. Declines in these revenue categories were offset by an increase of approximately $126,000 in services and maintenance and support revenues. A hosting contract for a newly developed workflow solution with a total value of nearly $1.0 million was signed with an existing customer in this recent second quarter. This continues to validate recent customer trends and preferences towards the hosting services software delivery model. Total operating expenses declined by more than $1.2 million to $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2009 from $5.3 million for the comparable period in 2008. This was primarily a result of company-wide cost reductions initiated in the third quarter of 2008 and increased capitalization of software development costs for our 5th generation flagship product and related workflows. The operating loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 was $(17,000) compared with an operating loss of $(427,000) in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. An operating profit of $11,000 was generated for the six months ended July 31, 2009 compared with a $(1.2 million) operating loss for the comparable six months of 2008. This represents a significant improvement in operating income of over $1.2 million. J. Brian Patsy, chief executive officer of Streamline Health, commented, "We are pleased with the progress that we continue to make in managing our costs and right-sizing our company. We reached virtual breakeven for the quarter and the first half of the year as we are beginning to benefit from the leverage the we have built into our business model in the past 12 months. While capital procurement for information technology in the hospital segment continues to be constrained by spending moratoriums in individual institutions and hospital groups of all sizes throughout the country, we believe that a substantial pent-up demand is building up as the economy recovers and the federal stimulus package positively impacts healthcare software expenditures. That is a very positive scenario for Streamline Health going forward as we are now better positioned for improved operational and financial performance when the market begins to turn around." "During the quarter," continued Mr. Patsy, "we secured a new hosting contract from a leading medical institution that will total approximately $1.0 million in revenues for one of our newest document workflow solutions. Our business process management (BPM) solutions will be instrumental in driving better productivity and higher accountability in the key business processes of this institution. We have the experience and the expertise to design and implement workflow processes tailored to an institution's specific needs that will enable staff to seamlessly utilize the new technology to drive operating efficiencies throughout their entire system. Given the industry-wide need to cut costs and drive efficiencies, we believe this represents an exciting new market opportunity for Streamline Health in the years to come." Mr. Patsy continued, "Total backlog at the end of the quarter was $23.4 million, representing an increase of 32% over the comparable backlog of a year ago. This is driven primarily by the trend of hospital customers toward SaaS-based hosting services contracts versus software licensing sales. We are at the leading-edge of this trend with the hosting solutions that allow hospital organizations to adopt document workflow and document management tools, applications and services to improve operational efficiencies in the most cost-efficient manner possible. We believe that the SaaS-based hosting model will be the preferred delivery model as the market improves in the coming quarters and years." "As anticipated, we also achieved a significant milestone in Q2 with the delivery of our 5th generation architecture and multi-language capabilities to a large customer in Canada. This newest-generation software platform, called accessANYware 5.0, is now well into the Beta testing process. We are still on track for announcing General Availability status before the end of our fiscal year. This was a monumental effort that made use of a large portion of our nearly $11 million investment in R&D investment over the past 2 years," concluded Mr. Patsy. Revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2009 were $7.8 million compared to $8.5 million in comparable period of 2008. The Company reported a net loss for the six months of $(2,000), or $(0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $(1.2 million), or $(0.13) per share, in the comparable six month period of 2008. Systems sales for the six months decreased approximately $808,000 and application-hosting services revenues were down $283,000 over the comparative six month period. Decreases in systems sales and application hosting revenues were offset by increases in maintenance and support revenues of approximately $205,000 and increases of $204,000 in professional services revenues for the comparative six month periods.
