DALLAS, Aug. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Crdentia Corp. (OTC:CRDT) (BULLETIN BOARD: CRDT) , a leading U.S. provider of healthcare staffing services, today announced financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Second Quarter Results The Company reported second quarter 2006 revenue of $11.3 million, a 23% increase compared to revenue of $9.2 million for second quarter 2005. The increase in revenues during the quarter was primarily the result of the Company's acquisition of Staff Search Ltd. in April 2006 coupled with organic business growth. The Company also reported a net income of $1.4 million for the second quarter 2006 as compared to a net loss of $(0.7) million for the second quarter 2005. "I am quite pleased with the progress Crdentia is making towards our stated objective of expanding our healthcare staffing businesses in attractive markets throughout the country and achieving the critical mass necessary to improve our competitive position in the industry," said James D. Durham, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Crdentia Corp. "The strong 23% year-over-year top line growth we recorded in the quarter was driven by our April 2006 acquisition of Staff Search Ltd. and is an excellent example of our business model focused on acquiring a base of operations in a given market and augmenting the business with Crdentia's multidimensional arsenal of staffing services to better serve our diversified clientele. In addition to the Company's revenue growth, we also generated net income of $1.4 million during the quarter, a significant improvement compared to a net loss of $(0.7) million in the same period last year." Liquidity Position and Balance Sheet At June 30, 2006, the Company had total cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $0.4 million at year end 2005. Total stockholders' equity was $23.1 million at June 30, 2006, an increase from $6.6 million at year end 2005. During the first six months of 2006, the Company raised approximately $2.0 million in debentures and an additional $1.5 million in equity. These proceeds were used to repay $1.65 million on a term loan, with the balance used for general working capital purposes. The Company is currently looking to raise additional capital to refinance existing indebtedness, improve Crdentia's capital structure and finance working capital requirements. About Crdentia Corp. Crdentia Corp. is one of the nation's leading providers of healthcare staffing services. Crdentia seeks to capitalize on an opportunity that currently exists in the healthcare industry by targeting the critical nursing and allied shortage issue. There are many small, private companies that are addressing the rapidly expanding needs of the healthcare industry. Unfortunately, due to their relatively small capitalization, they are unable to maximize their potential, obtain outside capital or expand. By consolidating well-run small private companies into a larger public entity, Crdentia intends to facilitate access to capital, the acquisition of technology, providing greater diversity of client services and expanded distribution that, in turn, drive internal growth.
