NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect, in the opinion of the management of Computer Task Group, Incorporated (“CTG” or “the Company”), all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the periods presented.

The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31. During the year, the quarters generally consist of a 13-week fiscal quarter where the last day of each of the first three quarters is a Friday. The 2012 third quarter began on June 30, 2012 and ended on September 28, 2012. The 2011 third quarter began on July 2, 2011 and ended September 30, 2011. There were 63 billable days in both the third quarters of 2012 and 2011, and 191 and 192 billable days in the first three quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of goodwill, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, actuarial assumptions including discount rates and expected rates of return on assets, as applicable, for the Company’s defined benefit and postretirement benefit plans, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, assumptions underlying stock option valuation, investment valuation, legal matters, other contingencies, and progress toward completion and direct profit or loss on contracts. Management believes that the information and disclosures provided herein are adequate to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income, and cash flows of the Company. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

The Company operates in one industry segment, providing Information Technology (“IT”) services to its clients. These services include IT solutions and IT staffing. CTG provides these primary services to all of the markets that it serves. The services provided typically encompass the IT business solution life cycle, including phases for planning, developing, implementing, managing, and ultimately maintaining the IT solution. A typical customer is an organization with large, complex information and data processing requirements.

The Company promotes a significant portion of its services through four vertical market focus areas: Technology Service Providers, Healthcare (which includes services provided to healthcare providers, health insurers, and life sciences companies), Financial Services, and Energy. The Company focuses on these four vertical areas as it believes that these areas are either higher growth markets than the general IT services market and the general economy, or are areas that provide greater potential for the Company’s growth due to the size of the vertical market. The remainder of CTG’s revenue is derived from general markets.

The Company’s revenue by vertical market as a percentage of total revenue for the quarter and three quarters ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 are as follows:

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid for a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy for its assets and liabilities, as applicable, based upon three levels of input, which are:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (observable)

Level 2 – inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be supported by observable market data for essentially the full term of the asset or liability (observable)

Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, but are significant to determining the fair value of the asset or liability (unobservable)

Table of Contents

At September 28, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the reported balances of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $29.4 million and $22.4 million, respectively, approximated fair value.

The Company is also allowed to elect an irrevocable option to measure, on a contract by contract basis, specific financial instruments and certain other items that are currently not being measured at fair value. The Company did not elect to measure on a fair value basis any of its individual contracts during the quarters or year-to-date periods ended September 28, 2012 or September 30, 2011.

Life Insurance Policies

The Company has purchased life insurance on the lives of approximately 20 plan participants in the non-qualified defined-benefit Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan. All of the plan participants are former employees of the Company. Those policies have generated cash surrender value, and the Company has taken loans against the policies. At September 28, 2012 and December 31, 2011, these insurance policies had a gross cash surrender value of $27.1 million and $27.4 million, respectively, loans had been taken totaling $25.3 million and $25.6 million, respectively, and the net cash surrender value balance of $1.8 million at both dates was included on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in “Other Assets” under non-current assets. At September 28, 2012, the total death benefit for these policies is approximately $40 million. Currently, upon the death of all of the plan participants, the company would expect to receive approximately $15 million after the payment of outstanding loans, and record a gain of approximately $13 million.

Subsequent to the completion of the 2012 third quarter, one of the plan participants passed away. The Company anticipates receiving non-taxable net proceeds and recording a gain, included in interest and other income, of approximately $0.9 million or $0.05 cents per diluted share in the 2012 fourth quarter.

Taxes Collected from Customers

In instances where the Company collects taxes from its customers for remittance to governmental authorities, primarily in its European operations, revenue and expenses are not recorded at gross amounts as such taxes are presented on a net basis.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Cash Overdrafts

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term, highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. The Company had no cash equivalents at September 28, 2012 or December 31, 2011. Additionally, as the Company does not fund its bank accounts for checks it has written until the checks are presented to the bank for payment, the balance representing “change in cash overdraft, net” on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows represents the increase or decrease in outstanding checks for the periods presented.

Capitalized Software Costs - Projects Developed for Internal Use

The Company did not record any capitalized software costs during the quarter or three quarters ended September 28, 2012, and as of that date had capitalized a total of $5.1 million. Accumulated amortization for these projects, with amortization periods ranging from three to five years, totaled $2.6 million as of September 28, 2012.

During the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded capitalized software costs of $0.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and as of that date had capitalized a total of $5.1 million. Accumulated amortization for these projects totaled $1.1 million as of September 30, 2011.

Certain options representing 0.3 million shares of common stock were outstanding at both September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive.

 

4. Investments

The Company’s investments consist of mutual funds which are part of the Computer Task Group, Incorporated Non-qualified Key Employee Deferred Compensation Plan and the Non-employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan. At September 28, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company’s investment balances, which are classified as trading securities, totaled approximately $0.6 million at both dates, and are measured at fair value. As there is an active trading market for these funds, fair value was determined using Level 1 inputs (see “Fair Value” in Note 2). Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in earnings and were nominal in both the 2012 and 2011 third quarters and year-to-date periods.

6. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) is calculated quarterly based upon current assumptions relating to the full year’s estimated operating results and various tax-related items. The Company’s normal annual ETR typically ranges from 38% to 42% of pre-tax income.

The 2012 third quarter ETR was 39.1% and the 2012 year-to-date ETR was 38.4%. The 2011 third quarter ETR was 35.3% and the 2011 year-to-date ETR was 37.4%. During the 2011 third quarter, the Company recorded certain favorable tax adjustments to tax expense totaling less than $0.1 million associated with the filing of its 2010 federal and state income tax returns. Also during the 2011 third quarter, the Company recorded additional tax credits totaling less than $0.1 million related to its research and development activities, and recognized federal tax credits totaling approximately $0.1 million related to the retention of certain individuals hired during 2010.

 

7. Deferred Compensation and Other Benefits

The Company maintains a non-qualified defined-benefit Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan (“ESBP”) that provides certain former key executives with deferred compensation benefits, based on years of service and base compensation, payable during retirement. The ESBP was amended as of November 1994 to freeze benefits for participants at that time.

Net periodic pension cost for the quarter and three quarters ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 for the ESBP are as follows:

The ESBP is deemed to be unfunded as the Company has not specifically identified assets to be used to discharge the deferred compensation benefit liabilities. The Company has purchased insurance on the lives of certain plan participants in amounts deemed to be sufficient to reimburse the Company for the costs associated with the plan for those participants. The Company does not anticipate making contributions to the plan other than for benefit payments as required for the remainder of 2012 or in future years.

The Company also retained a contributory defined-benefit plan for its previous employees located in The Netherlands (“NDBP”) when the Company disposed of its subsidiary CTG Nederland B.V. Benefits paid are a function of a percentage of career average pay. The plan was curtailed for additional contributions in January 2003. Net periodic pension cost (benefit) was approximately $15,000 and ($1,000) in the 2012 and 2011 third quarters, respectively, and $47,000 and ($3,000) in the year-to-date periods ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively.

The Company does not anticipate making significant contributions to the NDBP in 2012 or future years as the NDBP is nearly fully funded. The assets for the NDBP are held by Aegon, a financial services firm located in The Netherlands. The assets for the plan are included in a general portfolio of government bonds, a portion of which is allocated to the NDBP based upon the estimated pension liability associated with the plan. The fair market value of the plan’s assets equals the amount allocated to the NDBP at any point in time. The fair value of the assets is determined using a Level 3 methodology (see note 2 – Fair Value), including using assumptions such as expected market rates of return, equity and interest rate volatility, credit risk, correlations of market returns, and discount rates. The plan investments have a targeted minimum return to the Company of 4%, which is consistent with historical returns and the 4% return guaranteed to the participants of the plan. The Company, in conjunction with Aegon, continues to maintain the current investment strategy of investing plan assets solely in government bonds throughout 2012.

The change in the fair value of the plan assets for the NDBP for the three quarters ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 are as follows:

The Company maintains the Key Employee Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, a defined-contribution plan for certain key executives. Company contributions to this plan, if any, are based on annually defined financial performance objectives. The Company made contributions to this plan for amounts earned in 2011 totaling $0.4 million in the 2012 first quarter. The investments in the plan are included in the total assets of the Company, and are discussed in Note 4, “Investments.” Participants in the plan have the ability to exchange a portion of their investments for stock units which represent shares of the Company’s common stock. In exchange for the funds received, the Company will issue stock out of treasury stock equivalent to the number of share units received by each participant. These shares of common stock are not entitled to any voting rights and the holders will not receive dividends if any are paid. The shares are being held by the Company, and will be released to the participants as prescribed by their respective payment elections under the plan.

The Company maintains the Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan for its non-employee directors. Cash contributions to the plan for one of these directors during the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period were less than $0.1 million. At the time the contributions were made, the non-employee director elected to exchange his cash contributions to the plan for stock units which represent shares of the Company’s common stock. Consistent with the Key Employee Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, in exchange for funds received, the Company issued stock out of treasury stock equivalent to the number of share units received by the participant. These shares of common stock are not entitled to any voting rights and the holder will not receive dividends if any are paid. The shares are being held by the Company, and will be released to the non-employee director as prescribed by their respective payment election under the plan.

 

8. Treasury Stock

During the 2012 third quarter, the Company used approximately $0.5 million to purchase 38,000 shares of its stock for treasury pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase program. For the year-to-date period ended September 28, 2012, the Company used approximately $4.1 million to purchase 301,000 shares pursuant to the repurchase program. At September 28, 2012, approximately 0.6 million shares remained authorized for future purchases. The Company issued approximately 260,000 shares and 557,000 shares out of treasury stock primarily to fulfill the share requirements from stock option exercises and restricted stock grants during the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period, respectively.

During the 2011 third quarter, the Company used approximately $2.1 million to purchase 187,000 shares of its stock for treasury pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase program. For the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2011, the Company used approximately $3.3 million to purchase 281,000 shares pursuant to the repurchase program. At September 30, 2011, approximately 0.9 million shares remained authorized for future purchases. The Company issued approximately 34,000 shares and 824,000 shares out of treasury stock primarily to fulfill the share requirements from stock option exercises and restricted stock grants during the 2011 third quarter and year-to-date period, respectively.

 

9. Significant Customer

In the 2012 third quarter, International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”) was the Company’s largest customer, and accounted for $28.3 million or 26.6% of consolidated revenue as compared with $30.8 million or 30.4% of revenue in the comparable 2011 period. In the first three quarters of 2012, IBM accounted for $85.6 million or 27.1% of consolidated revenue, compared with $89.0 million or 30.2% of consolidated revenue in the comparable 2011 period.

During the 2011 fourth quarter, the National Technical Services Agreement (“NTS Agreement”) with IBM was renewed for three years to December 31, 2014. As part of the NTS Agreement, the Company provides its services as a predominant supplier to IBM’s Integrated Technology Services unit and as sole provider to the Systems and Technology Group business unit. The Company’s accounts receivable from IBM at September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 totaled $11.6 million and $15.4 million, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue in the third quarter or year-to-date periods of 2012 or 2011.

Industry Trends

The Company operates in one industry segment, providing IT services to its clients. These services include IT solutions and IT staffing. The market demand for the Company’s services is heavily dependent on IT spending by major corporations, organizations and government entities in the markets and regions that it serves. The pace of technological change and changes in business requirements and practices of the Company’s clients all have a significant impact on the demand for the services that we provide. Competition for new engagements and pricing pressure has been and, management believes, will continue to be strong.

IT solutions and IT staffing revenue as a percentage of total revenue for the quarter and three quarters ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 are as follows:

The Company promotes a significant portion of its services through four vertical market focus areas: Technology Service Providers, Healthcare (which includes services provided to healthcare providers, health insurers, and life sciences companies), Financial Services, and Energy. The Company focuses on these four vertical areas as it believes that these areas are either higher growth markets than the general IT services market and the general economy, or are areas that provide greater potential for the Company’s growth due to the size of the vertical market. The remainder of CTG’s revenue is derived from general markets.

The Company’s revenue by vertical market as a percentage of total revenue for the quarter and three quarters ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 are as follows:

The IT services industry is extremely competitive and characterized by continuous changes in customer requirements and improvements in technologies. The Company’s competition varies significantly by geographic region, as well as by the type of service provided. Many of the Company’s competitors are larger than CTG, and have greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources. In addition, the Company frequently competes with a client’s own internal IT staff. Our industry is being impacted by the growing use of lower-cost offshore delivery capabilities (primarily India and other parts of Asia). There can be no assurance that CTG will be able to continue to compete successfully with existing or future competitors or that future competition will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, when the services have been rendered, when the price is determinable, and when collectability of the amount due is reasonably assured. For time-and-material contracts, revenue is recognized as hours are incurred and costs are expended. For contracts with periodic billing schedules, primarily monthly, revenue is recognized as services are rendered to the customer. Revenue for fixed price contracts is recognized as per the proportional method of accounting using an input-based approach whereby salary and indirect labor costs incurred are measured and compared with the total estimate of costs at completion of a project. Revenue is recognized based upon the percent complete calculation of total incurred costs to total estimated costs. The Company’s estimate of the total labor costs it expects to incur over the term of the contract is based on the nature of the project and our past experience on similar projects, and includes management judgments and estimates which affect the amount of revenue recognized on fixed-price contracts in any accounting period.

The Company entered into a series of contracts with a customer that provide for application customization and integration services, specifically utilizing one of the software tools the Company has internally developed. As the contracts are closely interrelated and dependent on each other, for accounting purposes the contracts are considered to be one arrangement. Additionally, as the project includes significant modification and customization services to transform the previously developed software tool into an expanded tool that meets the customer’s requirements, the percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting is being utilized for the project.

There were 191 billable days and 192 billable days in the 2012 and 2011 year-to-date periods, respectively. Reimbursable expenses billed to customers and included in revenue totaled $10.2 million and $9.4 million in the 2012 and 2011 year-to-date periods, respectively.

The revenue increase in North America in the 2012 third quarter and first three quarters as compared with the corresponding 2011 period was due to significant demand for the Company’s IT solutions services. IT solutions revenue increased 13.1% and 20.6% in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period, respectively, as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods. The IT solutions revenue increase was primarily driven by an increase in electronic medical records work for providers in the Company’s healthcare vertical market. IT staffing revenue in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period was consistent with the revenue recorded in the corresponding 2011 period. The Company’s headcount was approximately 3,800 employees at September 28, 2012, which was a 3% increase from approximately 3,700 employees at both December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011.

The slight increase in revenue in the Company’s European operations in the 2012 third quarter, and decrease in the 2012 year-to-date period, as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods, was primarily due to strength in our European IT solutions business, offset by weakness relative to the U.S. dollar of the currencies of Belgium, Luxembourg, and the United Kingdom, the countries in which the Company’s European subsidiaries operate. In Belgium and Luxembourg, the functional currency is the Euro, while in the United Kingdom the functional currency is the British Pound. In the 2012 third quarter as compared with the 2011 third quarter, the average value of the Euro decreased 11.6% while the average value of the British Pound decreased 2.0%. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue from its European operations is generated in Belgium and Luxembourg. If there had been no change in these exchange rates from the 2011 third quarter to the 2012 third quarter, total European revenue would have been approximately $2.1 million higher, or $18.4 million as compared with the $16.3 million reported. In the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with the first three quarters of 2011, the average value of the Euro decreased 8.9% while the average value of the British Pound decreased 2.3%. If there had been no change in the exchange rates from the first three quarters of 2011 to the corresponding 2012 period, total European revenue would have been approximately $4.7 million higher, or $55.0 million as

compared with the $50.3 million reported. Additionally, operating income in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period would have been higher by approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, if there had been no change in the exchange rates year-over-year.

In the 2012 third quarter, IBM was the Company’s largest customer, accounting for $28.3 million or 26.6% of consolidated revenue as compared with $30.8 million or 30.4% of revenue in the comparable 2011 period. In the first three quarters of 2012, IBM accounted for $85.6 million or 27.1% of consolidated revenue, compared with $89.0 million or 30.2% in the comparable 2011 period. During the 2011 fourth quarter, the National Technical Services Agreement (“NTS Agreement”) with IBM was renewed for three years to December 31, 2014. As part of the NTS Agreement, the Company provides its services as a predominant supplier to IBM’s Integrated Technology Services unit and as sole provider to the Systems and Technology Group business unit. The Company’s accounts receivable from IBM at September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 totaled $11.6 million and $15.4 million, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue in the third quarter or first three quarters of 2012 or 2011.

Direct costs, defined as the costs for billable staff including billable out-of-pocket expenses, were 78.3% of revenue in the 2012 third quarter as compared with 79.3% of revenue in the 2011 third quarter, and 78.6% of revenue in the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with 79.2% in the corresponding 2011 period. The Company’s direct costs as a percentage of revenue fell in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods due to a shift in the Company’s business mix to a higher level of solutions business, which incurs lower direct costs as a percentage of revenue than the Company’s staffing business.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were 15.8% of revenue in the 2012 third quarter and 16.2% in the corresponding 2011 period, and 15.7% in the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with 16.1% in the corresponding 2011 period. The decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue in the 2012 third quarter and first three quarters as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods is primarily due to continued disciplined cost management and the effect of operating leverage resulting from revenue growth.

Operating income was 5.9% of revenue in the 2012 third quarter as compared with 4.5% in the 2011 third quarter, and 5.7% of revenue in the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with 4.7% in the corresponding 2011 period. The increase in operating income as a percentage of revenue in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods is primarily due the favorable change in business mix from the prior periods. Operating income from North American operations was $16.1 million and $12.0 million in the first three quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. European operations recorded operating income of $2.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in the corresponding 2012 and 2011 periods.

Interest and other income (expense) was 0.1% of revenue in the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with (0.0)% in the corresponding 2011 period. The increase in net interest and other income in the 2012 year-to-date period resulted from receipt of life insurance proceeds of approximately $0.4 million for one of the Company’s previous chief executive officers who passed away in the 2012 second quarter.

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) is calculated quarterly based upon current assumptions relating to the full year’s estimated operating results and various tax-related items. The Company’s normal annual ETR typically ranges from 38% to 42% of pre-tax income.

The 2012 third quarter ETR was 39.1% and the 2012 year-to-date ETR was 38.4%. The 2011 third quarter ETR was 35.3% and the 2011 year-to-date ETR was 37.4%. During the 2011 third quarter, the Company recorded certain favorable tax adjustments to tax expense totaling less than $0.1 million

associated with the filing of its 2010 federal and state income tax returns. Also during the 2011 third quarter, the Company recorded additional tax credits totaling less than $0.1 million related to its research and development activities, and recognized federal tax credits totaling approximately $0.1 million related to the retention of certain individuals hired during 2010.

Net income for the 2012 third quarter was 3.6% of revenue or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with net income of 3.0% of revenue or $0.18 per diluted share in the 2011 third quarter. Net income for the first three quarters of 2012 was 3.6% of revenue or $0.67 per diluted share, compared with net income of 2.9% of revenue or $0.52 per diluted share in the corresponding 2011 period. Net income in the 2012 year-to-date period included approximately $0.025 per share from the life insurance proceeds mentioned above. Diluted earnings per share was calculated using 16.8 million and 16.7 million weighted-average equivalent shares outstanding for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company’s significant accounting policies, along with the underlying assumptions and judgments made by the Company’s management in their application, have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company identifies its most critical accounting policies as those that are the most pervasive and important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and that require the most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments by management regarding estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s most critical accounting policies are those related to income taxes, specifically relating to deferred taxes and valuation allowances, and goodwill valuation.

Income Taxes – Deferred Taxes and Valuation Allowances – At September 28, 2012, the Company had a total of $7.1 million of current and non-current deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. The changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities from period to period are determined based upon the changes in differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the basis of assets and liabilities for tax purposes, as measured by the enacted tax rates when these differences are estimated to reverse. The Company has made certain assumptions regarding the timing of the reversal of these assets and liabilities, and whether taxable income in future periods will be sufficient to recognize all or a part of any gross deferred tax asset of the Company.

At September 28, 2012, the Company had deferred tax assets recorded resulting from net operating losses totaling approximately $1.1 million. Management of the Company has analyzed each jurisdiction’s tax position, including forecasting potential taxable income in future periods, and the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards as applicable, and determined that it is unclear whether some of these deferred tax assets will be realized at any point in the future. At September 28, 2012, the Company has offset substantially all of these deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance totaling $1.0 million, resulting in a net deferred tax asset from net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $0.1 million.

The Company’s deferred tax assets and their potential realizability are evaluated each quarter to determine if any changes should be made to the valuation allowance. Any change in the valuation allowance in the future could result in a change in the Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”). A 1% change in the ETR in the 2012 third quarter would have increased or decreased net income in the quarter by approximately $63,000.

Goodwill Valuation – The Company has a goodwill balance of $35.7 million related to its healthcare vertical market recorded as of September 28, 2012. As of the fiscal month-end October 2011, with the assistance of an independent appraisal company, the Company completed its annual valuation of the business to which the Company’s goodwill relates. The valuation indicated that the estimated fair value of the business was substantially in excess of its carrying value by approximately 116%. Additionally, no facts or circumstances have arisen since October 2011 which have led management to believe the goodwill may be impaired.

Other Estimates – The Company has also made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of other assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare the consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Such estimates primarily relate to actuarial assumptions including discount rates and expected rates of return on assets, as applicable, for the Company’s defined benefit and postretirement benefit plans, an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, assumptions underlying stock option valuation, investment valuation, legal matters, other contingencies, and progress toward completion and direct profit or loss on contracts. As future events and their effects can not be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates. Changes in the economic climates in which the Company operates may affect these estimates and will be reflected in the Company’s financial statements in the event they occur.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

Operating activities provided cash of $9.8 million in the first three quarters of 2012 (“2012 period”), and used $1.5 million of cash in the first three quarters of 2011 (“2011 period”). In the 2012 period, net income totaled $11.3 million, while other non-cash adjustments, primarily consisting of depreciation and amortization expense, equity-based compensation expense, deferred income taxes, and deferred compensation totaled a net of $4.8 million. In the 2011 period, net income was $8.6 million, while the corresponding non-cash adjustments netted to $2.5 million. Accounts receivable balances increased $2.8 million in the 2012 period, and increased $10.3 million in the 2011 period. The increase in the accounts receivable balance in the 2012 period primarily resulted from a 7.2% increase in revenue year-over-year, offset by a two day decrease in days sales outstanding (“DSO”). DSO decreased two days to 60 days at September 28, 2012, from 62 days at December 31, 2011. The increase in accounts receivable in the 2011 period primarily resulted from a 21% increase in revenue year-over-year. DSO was 61 days at September 30, 2011 as compared with 60 days at December 31, 2010.

Accounts payable decreased $1.1 million in the 2012 period, and $0.3 million in the 2011 period primarily due to the timing of payments near quarter-end. Accrued compensation decreased $1.0 million in the 2012 period due to one less week of accrued wages at September 28, 2012 as compared with December 31, 2011, slightly offset by an increase in headcount of 100 people, or 3%, in the 2012 period. Accrued compensation increased $0.1 million in the 2011 period due to an increase in employee headcount of approximately 300, or 9%, and an increase in accrued incentives, offset by one less week of accrued wages at September 30, 2011 as compared with December 31, 2010. Income taxes payable decreased $1.4 million in the 2012 period and $0.4 million in the 2011 period due to the timing of payments and the excess tax benefit received from equity-based compensation transactions. Advance billings decreased $0.2 million and $1.1 million in the 2012 and 2011 periods, respectively, due to the timing of invoices sent to customers near quarter-end.

Investing activities used $1.2 million in the 2012 period as compared with $1.5 million in the 2011 period. The cash used in the 2012 period represented additions to property and equipment of $1.1 million and net contributions to the Company’s deferred compensation plans totaling $0.1 million. Additions to property, equipment and capitalized software in the 2011 period totaled approximately $1.7 million, which was offset by proceeds from sales of property and equipment of $0.2 million. The Company has no significant commitments for the purchase of property or equipment at September 28, 2012.

Financing activities used $1.5 million of cash in the 2012 period as compared with providing $0.9 million in the 2011 period. The cash used in the 2012 period primarily resulted from $4.2 million used for the purchase of stock for treasury, offset by $0.7 million received from the exercise of stock options under the Company’s equity-based compensation plans, and excess tax benefits from the Company’s equity-based compensation transactions of $1.7 million. In the 2011 period, the Company received $1.8 million from the exercise of stock options, $1.7 million from excess tax benefits for equity-based compensation transactions, $0.4 million for the net change in cash overdrafts, offset by $3.3 million used for the purchase of stock for treasury.

The Company’s credit agreement expires in April 2014 and allows the Company to borrow up to $35.0 million. At both September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011, there were no amounts outstanding under the credit agreement. Although there were no borrowings outstanding, at September 28, 2012 and September 30, 2011 there were $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of letters of credit issued under the credit agreement. The Company borrows or repays its revolving debt as needed based upon its working capital obligations, including the timing of the U.S. bi-weekly payroll. During the 2012 period, the Company did not borrow any funds under its revolving credit agreement, while the average outstanding balance under this line of credit was $0.5 million in the 2011 period.

The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants in order to maintain borrowings under its revolving credit line, pay dividends, and make acquisitions. The covenants are measured quarterly, and at September 28, 2012 include a leverage ratio which must be no more than 2.75 to 1, a calculation of minimum tangible net worth which must be no less than $49.2 million, and total expenditures for property, equipment and capitalized software can not exceed $5.0 million annually. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at September 28, 2012 as its leverage ratio was 0.0, tangible net worth was $63.7 million, and expenditures for property and equipment in the 2012 period were $1.1 million. The Company was also in compliance with its required covenants at September 30, 2011. When considering current market conditions and operating results, and the Company’s current estimate of future operating results, the Company believes it will be able to meet its covenants, as applicable, for the remainder of 2012 and in future years.

During the 2012 period, the Company used approximately $4.1 million to purchase 301,000 shares of its stock for treasury. At September 28, 2012, a total of approximately 0.6 million shares are authorized for future purchases. During the 2011 period, the Company used approximately $3.3 million to purchase 281,000 shares of its stock for treasury.

Of the total cash and cash equivalents reported on the consolidated balance sheet at September 28, 2012 of $29.4 million, approximately $14.7 million was held by the Company’s foreign operations and is considered to be indefinitely reinvested in those operations. The Company has not repatriated any of its cash and cash equivalents from its foreign operations in the past five years, and has no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future as the funds are required to meet the working capital needs of our foreign operations.

The Company believes existing internally available funds, cash potentially generated from future operations, and borrowings available under the Company’s revolving line of credit totaling $34.5 million at September 28, 2012 are sufficient to meet foreseeable working capital and capital expenditure needs, fund stock repurchases, and allow for future internal growth and expansion.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company’s primary market risk exposure consists of foreign currency exchange risk associated with the Company’s European operations.

Revenue in the Company’s European operations in both the 2012 third quarter and first three quarters as compared with the corresponding 2011 periods was affected by the weakness relative to the U.S. dollar of the currencies of Belgium, Luxembourg, and the United Kingdom, the countries in which the Company’s European subsidiaries operate. In Belgium and Luxembourg, the functional currency is the Euro, while in the United Kingdom the functional currency is the British Pound. In the 2012 third quarter as compared with the 2011 third quarter, the average value of the Euro decreased 11.6% while the average value of the British Pound decreased 2.0%. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue from its European operations is generated in Belgium and Luxembourg. If there had been no change in these exchange rates from the 2011 third quarter to the 2012 third quarter, total European revenue would have been approximately $2.1 million higher, or $18.4 million as compared with the $16.3 million reported. In the first three quarters of 2012 as compared with the first three quarters of 2011, the average value of the Euro decreased 8.9% while the average value of the British Pound decreased 2.3%. If there had been no change in the exchange rates from the first three quarters of 2011 to the corresponding 2012 period, total European revenue would have been approximately $4.7 million higher, or $55.0 million as compared with the $50.3 million reported. Additionally, operating income in the 2012 third quarter and year-to-date period would have been higher by approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, if there had been no change in the exchange rates year-over-year.

The Company has historically not used any market risk sensitive instruments to hedge its foreign currency exchange risk. The Company believes the market risk related to intercompany balances in future periods will not have a material effect on its results of operations.
