NEWTON, Mass., May 05, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- FVE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Five Star Quality Care, Inc. (NYSE AMEX: FVE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

First Quarter 2009 Financial Highlights:

-- Total revenues for the first quarter of 2009 increased 14.0% to $295.2 million from $258.9 million for the same period last year.

-- Net income for the first quarter of 2009 was $25.4 million compared to net income of $1.6 million for the same period last year.

-- Net income per share from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2009 was $0.78 and $0.67, basic and diluted, respectively, compared to net income per share from continuing operations of $0.14, basic and diluted, for the same period last year.

-- Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2009 included several items that, in aggregate, resulted in a positive impact of $22.2 million, or $0.69 and $0.58 per basic and diluted share, respectively. These items included a $3.5 million unrealized gain on our holdings of auction rate securities; a $2.9 million loss due to the impairment of our investments in certain marketable securities held by our captive insurance companies; a $25.1 million gain due to early extinguishment of debt; and a $3.5 million loss on our UBS put right related to our auction rate securities.

-- Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2008 included a $3.3 million unrealized loss, or $0.10 and $0.08 per basic and diluted share, respectively, on our holdings of auction rate securities.

First Quarter 2009 Operating Highlights (Senior Living Communities):

-- Senior living occupancy for the first quarter of 2009 was 86.5% compared with 89.6% for the same period last year.

-- Senior living average daily rate for the first quarter of 2009 increased by 3.1% to $146.69 from $142.30 in the same period last year.

-- The percentage of senior living revenue derived from private and other sources for the first quarter of 2009 increased to 69.1% from 66.1% for the same period last year.

-- For those senior living communities that we have operated continuously since January 1, 2008 (comparable communities), occupancy for the first quarter of 2009 was 87.5% compared with 89.7% for the same period last year.

-- The average daily rate at comparable communities for the first quarter of 2009 increased by 4.9%, to $149.46, from $142.43 in the same period last year.

First Quarter 2009 Highlights:

In January 2009, we purchased and retired $46.5 million par value of our outstanding 3.75% Convertible Notes (the "Notes") for $20.0 million, plus accrued interest. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a $25.1 million gain net of related unamortized origination costs, on early extinguishment of debt.

We sold one of our institutional pharmacies on January 15, 2009, which resulted in a gain on sale of $1.2 million which is included in discontinued operations. We were unable to sell the mail order pharmacy on acceptable terms and we discontinued its operations on March 31, 2009; our operating loss relating to this shuttered mail order pharmacy is recorded in discontinued operations and amounted to approximately $78,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(in thousands, except per share data)
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or
EBITDA, and EBITDA excluding certain items are not financial
measures determined according to generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP. We consider EBITDA and EBITDA excluding
certain items to be a meaningful disclosure because we believe
that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures may help
investors to gain a better understanding of changes in our core
operating results, and can also help investors who wish to make
comparisons between us and other companies on both a GAAP and a
non-GAAP basis. EBITDA and EBITDA excluding certain items as
presented may not, however, always be comparable to amounts
calculated by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures
are used by management to evaluate financial performance and
resource allocation for our communities and for us as a whole and
for comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the
performance of our competitors. These measures also are used by
management to aid in our financial and operating decision making.
This information should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or any other financial operating or performance measure
established by GAAP. Reconciliation of income from continuing
operations to EBITDA and EBITDA excluding certain items, for the
three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:
                                                               For the three months
