    Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. Announces Earnings For 3Q 2012

PR Newswire

DENVER, Nov. 13, 2012

DENVER, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Birner Dental Management Services, Inc.
(NASDAQ Capital Market: BDMS), operators of PERFECT TEETH®  dental practices
and Vantage Dental Implant Center, announced results for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 2012.  For the quarter ended September 30, 2012,
revenue increased $217,000, or 1.4%, to $15.7 million.  The Company's earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and non-cash expense
associated with stock-based compensation ("Adjusted EBITDA") increased
$307,000, or 24.7%, to $1.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. 
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 increased $9,000, or 2.4%,
to $383,000 compared to $374,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. 
Earnings per share increased to $0.21 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012
compared to $0.20 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenue decreased $1.3 million,
or 2.7%, to $47.7 million.  The Company's Adjusted EBITDA remained constant at
$4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.  Net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $291,000, or
25.9%, to $834,000 compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011.  Earnings per share decreased to $0.45 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2012 compared to $0.59 for the nine months ended September
30, 2011.

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the revenue increase was
largely due to patients accepting more expensive treatment plans.  For the
nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenue was negatively impacted in the
first and second quarters by the general economic weakness in the Company's
markets, which resulted in patients accepting less expensive treatment plans
relative to the same period of 2011. 

The Company has leased space for two de novo offices.  One office, which is
located in the Tucson, Arizona market, opened on October 31, 2012.  The
Company anticipates the other office, which is located in the Denver/Boulder,
Colorado market, will open in December 2012.  The Company anticipates
approximately $500,000 in capital expenditures at each de novo office.  The
Company also has signed letters of intent for two additional de novo office
locations. The Company does not anticipate opening either of these offices
until after the first quarter of 2013.

During the first nine months of  2012, the Company had capital expenditures of
approximately $3.1 million, paid out approximately $1.2 million in dividends
to its shareholders, and purchased 37,787 shares of its Common Stock for
approximately $622,000. During the first nine months of 2012, total bank debt
outstanding increased by approximately $984,000.  The Company's outstanding
bank debt has increased because of the Company's commitment to upgrading its
existing offices through extensive remodels and/or office relocations and its
continued commitment to converting its offices to digital radiography.  During
the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company completed remodels
and/or relocations on four of its offices and converted four additional
offices to digital radiography. 

Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. acquires, develops, and manages
geographically dense dental practice networks in select markets in Colorado,
New Mexico and Arizona.  The Company currently manages 65 dental offices, of
which 38 were acquired and 27 were de novo developments.  The Company
currently has 116 dentists.  The Company operates its dental offices under the
PERFECT TEETH® name. The Company also operates one Vantage Dental Implant
Center in Denver, Colorado.

The Company previously announced it would conduct a conference call to review
results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 on Tuesday, November 13, 2012
at 9:00 a.m. MST.  In addition to current operating results, the

financial and operating results. To participate in this conference call, dial

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is not a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP")
measure of performance or liquidity. However, the Company believes that it may
be useful to an investor in evaluating the Company's ability to meet future
debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements, and the
Company uses Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose.  Investors should not consider
Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, cash
flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining the
Company's operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance
with GAAP. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in
accordance with GAAP, it may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled
measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to
net income can be made by adding depreciation and amortization expense -
Offices, depreciation and amortization expense – Corporate, stock-based
compensation expense, interest expense, net and income tax expense to net
income as in the table below.
