ERT Reports Third Quarter 2009 Results

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- eResearchTechnology, Inc. (ERT), (Nasdaq: ERES - News), a leading provider of centralized ECG, ePRO and other services to the biopharmaceutical, medical device and related industries, announced today results for the third quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2009. Unless otherwise noted, all comparative numbers refer to changes from the same period a year ago. Financial highlights for the third quarter of 2009: Financial highlights for the first nine months of 2009:"The quarter was marked by growth in our routine (Phase I - IV) business, offset by a continued weakness in our Thorough QT business," commented Dr. Michael McKelvey, President and CEO of ERT. "We recorded a book to bill ratio of 1.9 in the quarter, the highest that ERT has ever recorded in recent history. This was due to a strong increase in routine bookings, which increased 23% sequentially and 15% compared to the third quarter a year ago. Thorough QT bookings continued to be impacted by the delays in the timing of sponsors' decisions on starting these trials. Sponsors may delay the running of Thorough QT trials until later in the drug development cycle, though regulatory guidance ultimately requires that they be performed. The quarter also saw a pick up in new bookings for our emerging ePRO business. We increased our operating income margin to 20.7% sequentially despite flat revenue (excluding the divestiture of our EDC operations) and slightly lower pricing."...

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The following discussion and analysis includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect our current views as to future events and financial performance with respect to our operations. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as "aim," "anticipate," "are confident," "estimate," "expect," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "look to" and other words and terms of similar meaning in conjunction with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include: unfavorable economic conditions; our ability to obtain new contracts and accurately estimate net revenues due to variability in size, scope and duration of projects and internal issues at the sponsoring client; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions; competitive factors in the market for centralized Cardiac Safety services; changes in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries to which we sell our solutions; technological development; and market demand. There is no guarantee that the amounts in our backlog will ever convert to revenue. Should the current economic condition...
