National Research Corporation (NASDAQ:NRCI) today announced
results for the second quarter 2009.
- Quarterly revenue up 14% to
$13.6 million
- Quarterly operating income up
6%
- Quarterly earnings per share
$0.24
- Year-to-date growth: revenue up
20%; operating income and basic earnings per share up 21%
Commenting on the second quarter results, Michael D. Hays,
president and chief executive officer of National Research
Corporation, said, “Our second quarter revenue growth was
respectable, while growth in net income was not. That said,
year-to-date performance is tracking close to plan. Second quarter
net new sales were 15% ahead of first quarter which is a positive
indication for the second half of 2009.”
Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, was $13.6 million,
compared to $11.9 million for the same period in 2008. Net income
for the second quarter was $1.6 million, or $0.24 basic and diluted
earnings per share, compared with net income of $1.6 million, or
$0.24 basic and $0.23 diluted earnings per share, in the prior year
period. Operating income increased 6% to $2.7 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $2.6 million for the same
period in 2008.
Revenue for the first half of 2009 increased 20% to $30.3
million, compared to $25.4 million for the same period in 2008. Net
income for the first six months of 2009 increased 19% to $4.3
million, resulting in $0.64 basic and $0.63 diluted earnings per
share, up 21% and 22% respectively, over the same period in
2008.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has
declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 (sixteen cents)
per share payable September 30, 2009, to shareholders of record as
of the close of business on September 4, 2009.
In closing, Patrick E. Beans, chief financial officer of
National Research Corporation, said, “Net income for the quarter
was lower than we desire at 12% of revenue. For the third quarter
2009, we anticipate net income back in the 15% range which aligns
with our model.”
