Second Quarter 2014 Results
For the second quarter of 2014, the Company reported revenue of $344.0 million, an increase of 19.6% from $287.6 million in the second quarter of 2013.  Non-emergency transportation services (NET) revenue grew 9.3% to $216.3 million in the second quarter of 2014, from $197.9 million in the second quarter of 2013.  The increase was due primarily to overall membership increases, expansion in certain markets and new contracts in Maine, Utah and Rhode Island.  The increase in revenue was partially offset by the termination of contracts in Wisconsin in 2013.  Human services revenue increased 10.1% to $98.8 million, from $89.8 million in the second quarter of 2013.  With the completed acquisition of Ingeus Limited, a global workforce development company, on May 30, 2014, the Company created a third reportable segment: Workforce Development Services. Workforce development services revenue was $28.8 million for the second quarter of 2014, which represents Ingeus' contribution for the month of June.

Net income was $6.7 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to net income of $5.9 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013.  Net income in the second quarter of 2014 included approximately $2.5 million in acquisition related costs primarily associated with the acquisition of Ingeus Limited.  EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2014 was $18.6 million compared to $15.2 million in the second quarter of 2013.  Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2014 increased 35.2% to $21.2 million compared to $15.7 million in the second quarter of 2013.  A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is presented below. 

The Company had approximately 19.5 million individuals eligible to receive services under its NET Services contracts at June 30, 2014, an increase of 13.4% from approximately 17.2 million at June 30, 2013.  Providence's direct Human Services client census at June 30, 2014 was approximately 59,900, up 12.8% from 53,100 at June 30, 2013.  Workforce Development client census at June 30, 2014 was approximately 250,500.

Year to Date 2014 Results
For the first six months of 2014, the Company reported revenue of $633.4 million, an increase of 11.3%, compared to $569.1 million in the first six months of 2013.  NET services revenue grew 6.0% to $414.4 million in the first half of 2014 from $391.0 million in the prior year period.  Human services revenue increased 6.8% to $190.1 million, up from $178.1 million in the first half of 2013.  Workforce development services revenue was $28.8 million, which entirely related to the inclusion of Ingeus for June.

Net income was $13.0 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, in the first half of 2014.  This compares to net income of $12.6 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, in the first half of 2013.  Net income in the first six months of 2014 included approximately $4.3 million in acquisition related costs primarily associated with the Ingeus Limited transaction.  EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the first six months of 2014 was $34.4 million compared to $32.0 million in in the same period last year.  Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the first six months of 2014 was $39.4 million, representing an increase of 21.0% from $32.5 million in the same period last year. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is presented below. 

During the first half of 2014, the Company generated a total of $18.3 million in cash from operations.  At June 30, 2014, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $123.0 million as well as approximately $102.3 million available for borrowing under the recently amended and restated senior secured credit facility.  Long-term obligations at June 30, 2014 were $191.6 million.

"We are pleased to report our initial quarter after consummation of the Ingeus acquisition, which comprises our new Workforce Development Services segment," said Warren Rustand, Chief Executive Officer.  "We believe that Ingeus is well positioned to enable us to successfully pursue growth opportunities on a global basis.

"We also reported solid financial results in our legacy businesses in the quarter.  Our NET Services segment continues to grow through market expansion as well as new contracts and has maintained its recent margin improvements.  While we experienced revenue growth in our Human Services segment due primarily to the Texas foster care contract that began in 2013, costs related to this contract are still higher than anticipated.  We have worked hard with the state to evaluate options to continue forward, and have concluded it is in the best interest of our stakeholders, including the communities and children we serve and our shareholders, to exit this contract through an orderly transition.  We also continue to focus significant resources on rapid performance improvement in certain other key markets.  We are pleased with the progress we have made, and expect to make over the balance of 2014.

"During the second quarter of 2014 we were also able to pay off the balance owed on our convertible debt and, additionally, expanded the capacity of our revolving line of credit by $75.0 million.  We continue to pursue financially compelling service expansion opportunities to extend our mission of creating healthier communities."

Non-GAAP Presentation

In addition to the financial results prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) provided throughout this press release, the Company has provided EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP measurements. Providence's management utilizes these non-GAAP measurements as a means to measure overall operating performance and to better compare current operating results with other companies within its industry.  Details of the excluded items and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are presented in the table below. The non-GAAP measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results. The Company has provided this supplemental non-GAAP information because the Company believes it provides meaningful comparisons of the results of Providence's operations for the periods presented in this press release. The non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by some other companies.

Words such as "believe," "demonstrate," "expect," "estimate," "forecast," "anticipate," "should" and "likely" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. In addition, statements that are not historical should also be considered forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on those forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.
