HEARUSA REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2007 RESULTS

Quarterly Net Revenues Reach Third Consecutive Record High

West Palm Beach, Fla. -- August 13, 2007 -- HearUSA, Inc. (AMEX: EAR), a leading provider of hearing care through a fully integrated and professionally accredited system of hearing care centers, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Q2 2007 Financial Results

·    Net revenues totaled a record $24.9 million, an increase of 5.7% from $23.6 million in the previous quarter and an increase of 12.0% from $22.3 million a year ago. This third consecutive quarter of record net revenues is primarily attributable to the contribution of hearing centers acquired within the last 12 months.

·    Income from operations was $810,000 or 3.3% of revenues, as compared to $1.6 million or 7.0% of revenues in the previous quarter and $1.6 million or 7.3% of net revenues a year ago. The decrease was mostly attributable to the additional marketing expense of approximately $700,000 related to the Coach Shula TV campaign and $200,000 from the 2006 restatement costs. The long-term objective for income from operations remains in the range of 10% to 12%.

·    The net loss applicable to common stockholders for the second quarter was $3.4 million or $0.09 per share, as compared to a net loss of $595,000 or $0.02 per share in the previous quarter and net loss of $100,000 or $0.00 per share a year ago. The increase in net loss is principally due to a non-cash charge related to the conversion of the 2003 convertible notes and exercise of related warrants totaling $2.6 million or $0.07 per share, and the restatement costs and Coach Shula TV campaign investment costs totaling $900,000 or $0.02 per share.

“Our highly successful acquisition program drove our top line growth to another record this quarter,” said Stephen J. Hansbrough, president and CEO of HearUSA, “and we expect this to continue with the abundance of acquisition opportunities before us .It is also important to note that while we took on the major cost of the new Coach Shula TV campaign in the second quarter, we are looking forward to realizing the full benefit of this program in the third and fourth quarters. In fact, July revenues were up 23% to $7.3 million as compared to $5.9 million in July of last year. This strong performance keeps us on track for our 2007 net revenues to increase 15-20% over last year and range between $102 and $107 million.”

Second Quarter 2007 Highlights

In May, HearUSA launched the "Just Find Out" campaign featuring renowned NFL football coach and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, Don Shula. The initial campaign used television, print, and direct mail to target adults 45 and older in three major Florida markets of Miami-Ft. Lauderdale, Palm Beach and Tampa. The campaign informs consumers about the importance of hearing and directs them to a local HEARx center for a free demonstration of the latest technology from Siemens.

 HearUSA acquired three hearing care centers during the second quarter, with combined estimated trailing twelve-month (“TTM”) revenues of $1.7 million. This brings the total acquisitions for the first half of 2007 to six hearing centers, with combined estimated TTM revenues of $4.1 million.

Notes Ken Schofield, HearUSA’s chief operating officer, “In addition to the $4.1 million in TTM revenue we acquired in the first half of the year, we have since closed on two additional transactions representing four hearing care centers and $1.7 million in estimated TTM revenues. Additionally we have Letters of Intent representing $5.0 million in estimated TTM revenues. We continue to receive strong interest by independent private hearing care providers looking to join our organization and are confident we will meet our acquisition goal of $10 to $15 million in estimated TTM revenues for 2007. Since we initiated our strategic acquisition program over two years ago, we have been able to retain over 90% of the annual estimated revenues of the acquired hearing care centers during the first year of their acquisition and achieve a growth of over 5% above annual estimated revenues for those acquired hearing care centers we purchased more than a year ago.”

Gino Chouinard, HearUSA’s executive vice president and CFO, added, “Excluding the charges associated with the 2003 transaction and 2006 restatement, the only significant increase in our cost structure in the second quarter was the  $700,000 associated with the Don Shula marketing campaign. This will not repeat in the third quarter, as the investment we made in this campaign has entered a maintenance phase at a fraction of the cost spent during the branding phase. Additionally, in order to help drive profitability, the company intends to reduce corporate expenses by the end of the third quarter by more than $1 million per annum.”  

The company noted that about 17% of the hearing aids it sold during the quarter were purchased by patients under the age of 60. It believes this is an indication of environmental factors, like loud music, causing damage to the hearing of American’s younger generations. In addition to the aging population, this appears to be an emerging demographic factor that is increasing the demand for state-of-the-art hearing care like that provided by HearUSA.
