(firmenpresse) - LENEXA, KS -- (Marketwire) -- 11/02/11 -- Mediware Information Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDW), a provider of comprehensive healthcare software solutions, today reported total revenue of $15.5 million for the first quarter of the 2012 fiscal year, which ended September 30, 2011. This represents a 24 percent increase from the $12.5 million reported in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2011. Quarterly fully diluted earnings per share rose to $0.18, a 38 percent increase over the $0.13 per share reported in the same period in fiscal 2011.
Commenting on the quarter, Mediware president and chief executive officer, Thomas Mann, said: "Solid contributions from multiple product lines combined to deliver another great quarter for Mediware. Our results include significant new contracts in the U.S. and abroad, as well as continuing progress on large existing relationships such as the U.S. Department of Defense. In short, I am very pleased with our progress and results."
Among the quarter's highlights:
Operating income increased to $2.2 million, compared to $1.7 million in the same period last year.
Earnings per share for the quarter increased to $0.18 cents, from $0.13 cents the previous year.
Cash increased to $34.8 million, compared to $30.0 million as of June 30, 2011.
Expansion of Mediware blood transfusion system in a 27 hospital network.
Adoption of Mediware performance management software in two prestigious blood centers.
Addition of an enterprise pharmacy management contract for hospitals in Northern Ireland.
"We are experiencing increased interest and momentum for our blood management products that I believe are connected to stimulus-driven spending in the hospitals; changing market conditions in the blood centers; and our continued deployments for the U.S. Department of Defense," said Mr. Mann. "I believe these conditions, combined with activities in our Alternate Care Solutions and UK-based pharmacy businesses, create good opportunities for the remainder of the 2012 fiscal year."
