Company's subsidiaries, and the Company effective February 29,
2008. In addition to its actual results, the Company has provided a

PDG Litigation Settlement Accounting
As previously reported, the Company completed the settlement of
the litigation with PDG effective February 29, 2008. As part of
this settlement, the Company transferred the operating assets of 25
dental facilities to PDG. Pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long Lived Assets, the Company recognized a non-cash
gain of $30,127,000 which represents the fair market value of the
assets transferred to PDG of $39,968,000 less the book value of the
net assets transferred of $9,205,000 and litigation expenses of
approximately $636,000.
Prior to the transfer of the 25 facilities to PDG, the Company
recognized as net revenue expense reimbursement of $6,423,000 from
PDG for the operating expenses of these facilities through February
29, 2008, along with operating expenses of the PDG dentists who
remain, on a temporary basis, in the dental facilities retained by
the Company.
As part of the settlement of the litigation with PDG, the
Company entered into a transition services agreement with PDG in
which PDG will pay the Company $19,000,000 for continuing interim
management services through September 30, 2008. PDG is obligated to
pay this transition management services fee in 12 equal monthly
installments in 2008 irrespective of whether it utilizes such
services. The Company will recognize $10,000,000 of this amount as
net revenue from January to September 2008, and the remainder,
which was deemed to be in excess of fair market value for providing
such management services, was recognized in the fourth quarter of
2007 as an offset to the non-cash litigation settlement
expense.
Operating Results
Patient revenue of the Company's affiliated dental group
practices increased 9% to $107,374,000 for the quarter, which
includes $101,252,000 from dental group practices which are
affiliated with the Company by means of service agreements and
$6,122,000 from Arizona's Tooth Doctor for Kids. Same market
patient revenue growth was 9.8% for the quarter and 2.3% excluding
in-market affiliations.
Cash flow from operations was $971,000 for the quarter. Capital
expenditures were $3,929,000 for the quarter. The Company completed
two de novo facilities and expanded and/or relocated three dental
facilities during the quarter. Amounts paid for acquisitions and
affiliations, including affiliation costs and deferred and
contingent payments, were $2,376,000 for the quarter. During the
quarter, the Company completed one affiliation which generates
approximately $1,700,000 of patient revenue on an annualized
basis.
Cash net earnings and pro forma adjustments related to disposed
assets are non-GAAP financial measures. In accordance with the
requirement of SEC Regulation G, please see the attached financial
tables for a presentation of the most comparable GAAP measures and
the reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure and all additional
reconciliations required by Regulation G. Management believes these
non-GAAP financial measures are useful to an investor in assessing
the Company's on-going operations.
For further discussion of these events and a comprehensive
review of the first quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company will
host its previously announced conference call on Tuesday, April 29,
2008 at 10:00 a.m. EDT, which will be broadcast live over the
Internet at www.amdpi.com. The call will be hosted by Gregory A.
Serrao, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. To access
