Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009 increased to $2,060.5 million compared to $779.2 million for the same period in 2008. Core price for the three months ended March 31, 2009 (assuming the merger with Allied had occurred on January 1, 2008) increased 3.5%. Internal growth for the three months ended March 31, 2009 (assuming the merger with Allied had occurred on January 1, 2008) decreased 8.6% (consisting of a 3.5% price increase offset by decreases of 8.0% in core volume, 2.9% in commodity prices and 1.2% in fuel charges).
Commenting on these results, James E. O'Connor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Republic Services, said, "During the first quarter, we continued to see positive results regarding the merger of Republic and Allied. Thus far, we have captured more than $75 million in annual run-rate synergy savings. We are well on our way, and remain confident in our commitment, to secure a total annual savings of at least $150 million by the end of 2010."
"The field organization has done an excellent job managing costs through improved efficiency and productivity during the economic downturn which has resulted in significant margin expansion," said Donald W. Slager, President and COO of Republic Services, Inc. "Customer service and effective pricing continue to be the primary focus of our business in 2009. We remain committed to achieving our previous pricing guidance of 4% for the full year."
In April 2009, we received approximately $332 million in proceeds from the sale of certain businesses mandated by the United States Department of Justice. These proceeds were used to repay amounts borrowed under our revolving credit facility.
Company Declares Quarterly Dividend
Republic also announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $.19 per share for shareholders of record on July 1, 2009. The dividend will be paid on July 15, 2009.
