SunLink Health Systems, Inc. (NYSE American: SSY) today announced a loss from continuing operations of $143,000 (a loss of $0.02 per fully diluted share) for its first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to a loss of $786,000, (a loss of $0.11 per fully diluted share) for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 was $261,000 (a loss of $0.04 per fully diluted share) compared to a net loss of $880,000 ( a loss of $0.12 per fully diluted share) for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, SunLink sold approximately 11.4 acres of undeveloped land. After expenses, SunLink received $348,000 proceeds of the sale and included in continuing operations a pre-tax gain on the sale of $100,000.
Consolidated net revenues from continuing operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $11,652,000 and $10,207,000, respectively, an increase of 14% in the current fiscal year's first quarter compared to the comparable quarter of the prior fiscal year. Net revenues increased in the current fiscal quarter primarily due to increased hospital and nursing home net revenues and increased retail pharmacy, institutional pharmacy and durable medical equipment revenues.
SunLink incurred an operating loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 of $220,000, compared to an operating loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 of $727,000.
Loss from discontinued operations was $118,000 (a loss of $0.02 per fully diluted share) for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $94,000 ($0.01 per fully diluted share) for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Results from discontinued operations in the current year include expenses incurred in connection with retained professional liability claims and workers compensation claims of sold businesses.
SunLink had approximately 5% fewer fully diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the comparable quarter last year due to share repurchases in December 2018.
