Quality Systems (QSII) Earnings Solid

TweetThis
Quality Systems (QSII) has "enjoyed"a madly volatile day thus far today, trading between $36 and $42 - ah the joys of lemmings running around with their heads cut off based on a penny here or a penny there via earnings report.

The 200 day moving average is down at $36 so if that is violated we will need to cut back to preserve capital; as for today I added a bit in the low $37s since I have so little long exposure and need to offset my recent additions on the short side with something. Full report here - revenue is mixed between organic growth and acquisition growth.
  • For the quarter, the Company’s NextGen Healthcare Information Systems division posted record revenue of $61.5 million, up 40% when compared with the same quarter in the prior year and record operating income of $22.8 million, up 28% over third quarter last year. The Company’s Healthcare Strategic Initiatives acquisition contributed approximately $4.9 million to NextGen revenue during the quarter. The Company’s Practice Management Partners acquisition, which closed on October 28, 2008, contributed approximately $2.6 million to NextGen revenue during the quarter.
