The increase was primarily due to revenue on new contracts, the expansion of the number of patients served on existing contracts and industry-wide drug inflation. Growth in our PBM business, mainly from an increase in the discount cash card programs, resulted in a revenue increase of $10.1 million. The acquisition of the prescription pharmacy business of DS Pharmacy resulted in new revenue of $5.6 million during the period.

The increase in gross profit and in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily the result of the acquisition of CHS and purchasing synergies generated post-acquisition. In addition, the gross profit percentage increased due to our continued focus on those revenue sources which contribute to gross margin improvement.

Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense was $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $3.2 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in interest expense was due to a full quarter of interest on the debt instruments primarily used to finance the CHS acquisition. Interest expense included $5.8 million of interest expense related to our $225.0 million of senior unsecured notes and $1.3 million related to the $150.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility.

Net Income (Loss) and Income (Loss) Per Share. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $2.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. Net loss was $7.2 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Approximately $29.3 million of the decrease in working capital requirements related to the change in accrued expenses and other liabilities compared to the prior year. Accrued expenses and other liabilities was a source of $2.5 million of cash in 2011. Accrued expenses and other liabilities was a use of $26.8 million of cash in 2010 as a result of the acquisition of CHS and resulting cash payments of accrued expenses and other liabilities. In addition, $29.0 million of the decrease in working capital requirements was related to a reduction in inventory, which was a result of the timing of purchases and mail order process improvements. These changes were partially offset by an increase in working capital requirements related to receivables, largely due to an increase in receivables from a major customer.
