Special
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on
Form 10-K
contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. From time to time, we also provide forward-looking
statements in other materials we release to the public, as well
as oral forward-looking statements. Such statements give our
expectations or forecasts of future events; they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts.
We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements
by using words such as anticipate,
estimate, expect, project,
intend, plan, believe,
will, target, seek,
forecast and similar expressions. In particular,
these include statements relating to future actions, business
plans, objects and prospects, future operating or financial
performance or results of current and anticipated services,
acquisitions and the performance of companies we have acquired,
sales efforts, expenses, interest rates and the outcome of
contingencies, such as financial results.
We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will
be realized. Forward-looking statements are based on our current
expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy
and other future conditions. Should known or unknown risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove inaccurate, actual results could differ materially from
past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. We
caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these
forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of
historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future
performance.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences
include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
and in particular, the risks discussed under the heading
Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of this
Annual Report on
Form 10-K
and those discussed in other documents we file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Any forward-looking statements made by us in this Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
speak only as of the date on which they are made. Factors or
events that could cause actual results to differ may emerge from
time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of
them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as may be
required by law. You are advised, however, to consult any
further disclosures we make on related subjects in our
10-Q and
8-K reports
to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
PART I
Unless the context otherwise indicates, references in this
Annual Report to the terms HMS, we,
our and us refer to HMS Holdings Corp.
and its subsidiaries.
General
Overview
We provide a variety of cost containment services, including
coordination of benefits and program integrity services, for
government and private healthcare payors and sponsors. These
services are designed to help our clients recover amounts due
from liable third parties, save dollars, reduce fraud, waste and
abuse and ensure regulatory compliance.
Our clients are state Medicaid agencies, Medicaid and Medicare
managed care plans, government and private self-funded
employers, Pharmacy Benefit Managers, or PBMs, child support
agencies, the Veterans Health Administration, or VHA, the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS,
commercial plans, other healthcare payors and large business
outsourcing and technology firms. We help these entities contain
healthcare costs by ensuring that claims are paid correctly,
through our program integrity services and by ensuring that
claims are paid by the responsible party, through our
coordination of benefits services.
In September 2010, we acquired privately-held Chapman Kelly,
Inc. or Chapman Kelly. Based in Jeffersonville, Indiana, Chapman
Kelly provides dependent eligibility audits to large,
self-insured employers, as well as plan and claims audits to
employers and managed care organizations. With our acquisition
of Chapman Kelly we have
3
developed a robust Employer Solutions product area that provides
dependent eligibility audit services to employers of all sizes
and also augments our claim audit offering for healthcare plans.
In June 2010, we acquired privately-held Allied Management
Group Special Investigation Unit, or AMG-SIU, a
leading provider of fraud, waste and abuse prevention and
detection solutions for healthcare payors. Based in Santa Ana,
California, AMG-SIU provides audit and consulting services to
both government and commercial healthcare payors and offers a
proprietary forensic claim editing system to analyze claim data
for patterns of fraud, waste and abuse. AMG-SIU employs an
in-house special investigation unit to conduct preliminary
research, investigations, medical record reviews and pharmacy
reviews.
Our 2010 revenue increased to $302.9 million,
$73.6 million, or 32%, over 2009 revenue, primarily as a
result of the expansion of existing product offerings and
acquisitions. In addition, we have leveraged our expertise to
acquire new clients at the state, federal and employer levels
and expand our current contracts to provide new services to
current clients.
The
Healthcare Environment
The largest government healthcare programs are Medicare, the
healthcare program for aged and disabled citizens that is
administered by CMS and Medicaid, the program that provides
medical assistance to eligible low income persons, which is also
regulated by CMS but administered by state Medicaid agencies.
Medicare and Medicaid combined pay about one-third of the
nations healthcare expenditures and serve over
100 million beneficiaries. Many of these beneficiaries are
enrolled in managed care plans, which have the responsibility
for both patient care and claim adjudication.
By law, the Medicaid program is intended to be the payor of last
resort; that is, all other available third party resources must
meet their legal obligation to pay claims before the Medicaid
program pays for the care of an individual eligible for
Medicaid. Under Title XIX of the Social Security Act,
states are required to take all reasonable measures to ascertain
the legal liability of third parties for healthcare
services provided to Medicaid recipients. Since 1985, we have
provided state Medicaid agencies with services to identify the
other parties with liability for Medicaid claims and since 2005,
we have provided these services to Medicaid managed care plans.
The Deficit Reduction Act, or the DRA, signed into law in
February 2006, established a Medicaid Integrity Program to
increase the governments capacity to prevent, detect and
address fraud and abuse in the Medicaid program. The DRA is the
largest dedicated investment the federal government has made in
ensuring the integrity of the Medicaid program. Additionally,
the DRA added new entities, such as self-insured plans, PBMs and
other legally responsible parties to the list of
entities subject to the provisions of the Social Security Act.
To date, at least 47 states and the District of Columbia
have enacted legislation in order to comply with requirements of
the DRA. These measures at both the federal and state level have
strengthened our ability to identify and recover erroneous
payments made by our clients.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended or
the ACA, was signed into law on March 23, 2010. The
legislation touches almost every sector of the healthcare system
and we believe provides us with a range of opportunities across
products and markets. We are focused on four critical areas
related to this legislation:
|
|
|
|
|
Medicaid Expansion
|
|
|
|
Health Insurance Exchanges
|
|
|
|
Program Integrity, and
|
|
|
|
Employer-Sponsored Health Coverage
|
Medicaid Expansion: States will have to expand their
Medicaid programs significantly at a time when most states are
facing severe budget shortfalls. According to CMSs
projections for national health expenditures for
2009-2019,
which were updated in September 2010 and which we refer to as
the CMS NHE Projections, the number of individuals enrolled in
Medicaid and the Childrens Health Insurance Program, or
CHIP, is expected to increase from 60.4 million in 2010 to
82.2 million in 2019, with expenditures expected to more
than double over the same
4
period from $427 billion to $896 billion. As a result,
we anticipate a considerable increase in the need for our cost
containment services.
Health Insurance Exchanges: The ACA calls for new
pathways to coverage, including the creation of health insurance
exchanges similar to the Health Connector program
established in Massachusetts. CMS reports that 16 million
people will receive health coverage through these newly created
exchanges. The complex process of ensuring that all available
benefits are coordinated at the time of enrollment is the target
of our eligibility solutions. States will also be required to
coordinate their exchanges with Medicaid agencies and will be
charged with determining the appropriate level of federal
subsidy for individuals. We believe that our experience with the
Massachusetts Connector program and in administering health
insurance premium payment programs for states will enable us to
support states in developing premium assistance and coordination
of benefits technology and processes across Medicaid and the
exchange programs.
Program Integrity: The ACA contains a number of new
provisions for combating fraud and abuse throughout the
healthcare system, including in Medicaid and Medicare. These
initiatives include (i) the expansion of CMSs
Recovery Audit Contractor program to include Medicaid,
(ii) the establishment of a national healthcare fraud and
abuse data collection program and (iii) increased scrutiny
of providers and suppliers who want to participate in Medicare,
Medicaid and other federally-funded programs. The ACA allows for
significant increases in funding for these and other fraud,
waste and abuse efforts. We will be building on our current
partnerships with CMS, states and health plans to provide
innovative ideas for increasing our support of their new program
integrity initiatives.
Employer-Sponsored Health Coverage: The ACA largely
preserves and builds upon the existing employer-sponsored health
coverage model. Though not all employers will be required to
provide healthcare coverage, large employers (those with 50 or
more employees) will pay a penalty if they fail to do so.
Employers will also be prohibited from imposing waiting periods
for enrollment of more than 90 days and in certain cases,
employers will have to automatically enroll employees into their
benefit plans, while providing them with the ability to opt out.
These new requirements for employers, coupled with the Medicaid
expansion and implementation of state exchanges, will result in
more overlapping coverage situations and an opportunity for our
employer clients and Medicaid to collaborate. We expect that HMS
Employer Solutions will be able to offer claim audit services to
employers of all sizes, which will be necessary as these
employers extend coverage to their employees.
Principal
Products and Services
The demand for our services arises, in part, from the small but
significant percentage of government funds spent in error, where
another payor was actually responsible for the service, or a
mistake was made in applying complex claim processing rules.
According to the 2010 Agency Financial Report, the
U.S. Department of Health and Human services estimates that
improper payments in the Medicaid and Medicare programs totaled
$70.4 billion in 2010. Our services focus on containing
costs by reducing errors that result in these improper payments.
Our services draw upon proprietary information management and
data mining techniques and include coordination of benefits,
cost avoidance and program integrity. In 2010, we recovered more
than $1.7 billion for our clients and provided data to our
clients that assisted them in preventing billions of dollars
more in erroneous payments.
We provide the following services:
|
|
|
|
|
Coordination of benefits services, which route claims
already paid by a government program to the liable third party,
which then reimburses the government payor. The Medicaid and
Medicare programs, including Medicaid and Medicare managed care
organizations and VHA must all coordinate benefits with other
payors to ensure that claims are paid by the entitlement
program, group health plan or other party that actually bears
responsibility for a particular incident of medical service. By
properly coordinating benefits, these programs are able to
recover dollars spent in error and avoid unnecessary future
costs.
|
|
|
|
Cost avoidance services, which provide validated
insurance coverage information that is used by government payors
to reject claims that are the responsibility of a third party,
typically a group health plan sponsored by a beneficiarys
employer. Additionally, child support agencies use this
information to identify children who have coverage from either
the custodial or non-custodial parent, as well as to identify
children
|
5
|
|
|
|
|
without coverage. With validated insurance information,
healthcare payors can avoid unnecessary future costs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Program integrity services, which are designed to ensure
that medical services are utilized, billed and paid
appropriately. We identify payment errors and then recover the
erroneous payments, if appropriate. Our program integrity
services include: data mining; credit balance reviews; clinical
reviews; fraud, waste and abuse detection; compliance audits;
and recoupment services.
|
To perform our services, we aggregate medical claims, medical
records, health insurance and other beneficiary data from a
variety of sources. The data is mined to identify instances of
health insurance coverage, or claims that were paid in error for
administrative or clinical reasons. We provide our clients with
ways to recover funds or avoid future errors, including
validating primary insurance coverage, generating electronic
claims to liable third parties, documenting liens that attach to
personal injury litigation and estates, providing overpayment
edits to claims adjudication systems and enrolling children
under the insurance of non-custodial and custodial parents, as
appropriate.
Clients
The majority of our clients consist of state Medicaid agencies
and managed care organizations and large business outsourcing
and technology firms. From 2005 through 2010, we increased our
penetration into the Medicaid managed care market, as states
increased their use of contracted health plans. As of
December 31, 2010, we served 41 state Medicaid
agencies and 125 Medicaid health plans under 57 contracts.
In 2008, we were awarded a Medicaid Integrity Program, or MIP,
Task Order in the CMS Dallas jurisdiction and in 2009, we were
awarded a second MIP Task Order in the San Francisco
jurisdiction. Under these task orders, we examine payments to
providers made under the Social Security Act, with the objective
of identifying potential overpayments made as a result of fraud,
waste, or abuse. We are now the CMS Audit Medicaid Integrity
Contractor, or Audit MIC, for 22 state and territory
Medicaid programs.
By the end of 2010, we also provided coordination of benefits
and third party insurance identification services to medical
centers across all 21 Veterans Integrated Service Networks of
VHA and to child support agencies in 14 states.
In most cases, clients pay us contingency fees calculated as a
percentage of the amounts recovered, or fixed fees for cost
avoidance data. Most of our contracts have terms of three to
four years.
Our largest client in 2010 was the New York State Office of the
Medicaid Inspector General. This client accounted for 6.7%, 7.8%
and 7.9% of our total revenue for the years ended
December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The New
York State Office of the Medicaid Inspector General became our
client in September 2006, as part of our acquisition of the
Benefits Solutions Practice Area, or BSPA, of Public Consulting
Group, Inc., or PCG. We provide services to the New York State
Office of the Medicaid Inspector General pursuant to a contract
awarded in October 2001, which was subsequently re-procured and
extended through January 6, 2015. Our second largest client
in 2010 was the New Jersey Department of Human Services. This
client accounted for 5.3%, 6.2% and 6.6% of our total revenue in
the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. We provide services to this client pursuant to a
three year contract awarded in January 2008, which has been
renewed through December 2012. The loss of either one of these
contracts would have a material adverse effect on our financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.
The list of our ten largest clients changes periodically. For
the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, our ten
largest clients represented 36.4%, 39.5% and 43.5% of our
revenue, respectively. Our agreements with these clients expire
between 2011 and 2015. In many instances, we provide our
services pursuant to agreements that may be renewed subject to a
competitive re-procurement process. Several of our contracts,
including those with our ten largest clients, may be terminated
for convenience. We cannot assure you that our contracts,
including those with our ten largest clients, will not be
terminated for convenience or that any of these contracts will
be renewed, and, if renewed, that the fee rates will be equal to
those currently in effect.

Market
Trends/Opportunities
Containing healthcare expenditures presents challenges for the
government due to the number and variety of programs at the
state and federal level, the government appropriations process
and the rise in the cost of care and number of beneficiaries.
Healthcare reform legislation adds increased pressure to states
to cover more individuals even as most states are projecting
significant budget deficits, making cost containment a high
priority.
Government healthcare programs continue to grow. CMS has
projected that Medicaid, CHIP and Medicare expenditures will
increase to $1.8 trillion by 2019.
According to CMSs NHE Projections, at the end of 2010,
Medicare programs covered approximately 46.8 million people
and spent approximately $535 billion. CMS projects that by
the end of 2010, Medicaid/CHIP programs covered approximately
60.4 million people and spent approximately
$427 billion. Altogether, it is projected that the
government programs we serve covered more than 107 million
people and have spent nearly $962 billion in 2010. We
believe that enrollment in these programs will increase
significantly under healthcare reform legislation.
In its financial report for 2010, the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services estimated that improper payments in
Medicare and Medicaid will total approximately
$70.4 billion for the 2010 fiscal year.
Coordinating benefits among these growing programs and ensuring
that claims are paid appropriately, represents both an enormous
challenge and opportunity for us.
Competition
We compete primarily with large business outsourcing and
technology firms and with small regional firms specializing in
one or more of our services, in addition to the states
themselves, which may elect to perform coordination of benefits
and cost avoidance functions in-house. Against these
competitors, we typically succeed on the basis of our leadership
position in the marketplace, staff expertise, extensive
insurance eligibility database, proprietary systems and
processes, existing relationships and effectiveness in cost
recoveries and pricing.
Business
Strategy
Over the course of 2011, we expect to grow our business through
a number of strategic objectives or initiatives that may include:
|
|
|
|
|
Drive organic growth. We will seek to tap demand for our
services created by the steadily increasing expenditures of
government-funded healthcare.
|
|
|
|
Strengthen regulatory framework. On behalf of our
clients, we will take advantage of congressional and state
legislation reinforcing the ability of government agencies to
implement more rigorous cost-containment programs.
|
|
|
|
Expand scope. We will actively seek to expand our role
with existing clients by extending our reach to new services and
claim types and by providing earlier access to claim data.
|
|
|
|
Improve the quality and effectiveness of our services. We
will continue implementing new technology and processes to
better engineer the services we provide to our clients, which we
expect will enable us to increase cost recovery,
cost-containment and client satisfaction.
|
|
|
|
Add new clients. We will continue to market to additional
healthcare payors and sponsors, including mid- to large
employers, middle market Medicaid managed care plans, behavioral
health programs and commercial plans.
|
|
|
|
Expand program integrity footprint. We will continue to
seek new program integrity business at the state and federal
levels and in the employer and commercial markets.
|
|
|
|
Add new services. Where opportunities exist, we will
continue to add services closely related to cost containment
through internal development
and/or
acquisition.

Corporate
Information
We were incorporated on October 2, 2002 in the state of New
York. On March 3, 2003, we adopted a holding company
structure and assumed the business of our predecessor, Health
Management Systems, Inc. In connection with the adoption of this
structure, Health Management Systems, which began doing business
in 1974, became our wholly owned subsidiary.
We provide the following cautionary discussion of risks,
uncertainties and possibly inaccurate assumptions relevant to
our business that, individually or in the aggregate, may cause
our actual results to differ materially from expected and
historical results. We note these factors for investors as
permitted by the safe harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You should
consider these factors, but understand that it is not possible
to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you
should not consider the following to be a complete discussion of
all potential risks or uncertainties involved with investing in
our stock. These risk factors should be read in connection with
other information set forth in this Annual Report, including our
Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes.
Risks
Relating to Our Business
We face
significant competition for our services and we expect
competition to increase. Our business will be adversely impacted
if we fail to properly manage our growth.
Competition for our services is evident in the markets we serve.
We expect to encounter additional competition as we address new
markets and new competitors enter our existing markets. In
addition, our current and prospective clients evaluate our
capabilities against the merits of their existing information
management and data processing systems and expertise. We compete
with other providers of healthcare information management and
data processing services, including, Maximus, Inc., Affiliated
Computer Services, Inc., Ingenix and Medicare Recovery Audit
Contractor vendors, as well as healthcare consulting firms,
including PCG and Accenture. To date, PCG has been prohibited
from competing with us under the terms of a Non-Compete
Agreement which we entered into in connection with the BSPA
acquisition in 2006. Upon the expiration of that agreement in
September 2011, PCG could re-enter as a competitor to HMS.
In order to remain competitive and expand our business, we must
be able to quickly respond to new or emerging technologies,
changes in client requirements and changes in the political,
economic or regulatory environment in the healthcare industry.
Some of our competitors have formed business alliances with
other competitors that may affect our ability to work with
potential clients. In addition, if some of our competitors
merge, a stronger competitor may result. Many of our competitors
and potential competitors have significantly greater financial,
technical, product development, marketing and other resources
and market recognition than we have and accordingly may be in a
position to devote greater resources to the development,
promotion and sale of their
10
services than we can. If we fail to design, develop, implement
and improve our systems in response to our clients needs,
we may not be able to maintain or expand our client base, hire
and retain new employees, pursue new business opportunities,
complete future acquisitions or operate our business
effectively. In addition, services, solutions and technologies
offered by current or future competitors may make our services
or solution offerings uncompetitive or obsolete. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against
existing or any new competitors. If, as a result of increased
competition, we are forced to lower our pricing or if demand for
our services decreases, our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flow could be materially
adversely affected.
Our
business could be adversely affected if we lose a major client,
if our clients are not satisfied with our services or if they
elect to terminate our contracts before their scheduled
expiration date.
We generate a significant portion of our revenue from a limited
number of large clients. For the years ended December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008, our three largest clients accounted for
approximately 16%, 19% and 20%, respectively, of our revenue
from continuing operations.
Our business model depends in large part on our ability to
attract new work from our base of existing clients. It also
depends on relationships we develop with our clients so that we
can understand our clients needs and deliver solutions and
services that are tailored to meet those needs. If a client is
not satisfied with the quality of work performed by us, or with
the type of services or solutions delivered, then we could incur
additional costs to address the situation, the profitability of
that work might be impaired and the clients
dissatisfaction with our services could damage our ability to
obtain additional work from that client. In particular, since
several of our contracts are terminable upon short notice for
convenience by either party, clients that are not satisfied
might seek to terminate existing contracts prior to their
scheduled expiration date and could direct future business to
our competitors. Negative publicity related to our client
relationships, regardless of its accuracy, may further damage
our business by affecting our ability to compete for new
contracts with current and prospective clients. We cannot assure
you that a material contract will not be terminated for
convenience in the future.
In addition, some of our contracts contain liquidated damages
provisions and financial penalties related to performance
failures. Although we have liability insurance, the policy
coverage and limits may not be adequate to provide protection
against all potential liabilities. Under the terms of one of our
contracts, we have posted an irrevocable standby letter of
credit for $4.6 million. If a claim is made against this
letter of credit or any similar instrument that we obtain in the
future, we would be required to reimburse the issuer of the
letter of credit for the amount of the claim.
If we were to lose a major client or incur significant costs or
liabilities related to performance failures, our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could
be materially adversely affected.
Our
operating results are subject to significant fluctuations due to
factors including variability in the timing of when we recognize
contingency fee revenue. As a result, you will not be able to
rely on our operating results in any particular period as an
indication of our future performance.
We have experienced significant variations in our revenue
between reporting periods due to the timing of periodic revenue
recovery projects and the timing and delays in third party
payors claim adjudication and ultimate payment to our
clients where our fees are contingent upon such collections. In
addition, our revenue and, consequently, our operating results
may vary significantly from period to period as a result of
factors including the terms and progress of contracts,
fluctuations in sales activity given our sales cycle of
approximately three to eighteen months, the commencement,
completion or termination of contracts during any particular
quarter, expenses related to certain contracts which may be
incurred in periods prior to revenue being recognized, the
schedules of government agencies for awarding contracts, the
term of awarded contracts, potential acquisitions, the loss of
clients and general economic conditions as they affect
healthcare providers and payors. For example, a significant
portion of our operating expenses are fixed. Any inability on
our part to reduce spending or to compensate for any failure to
receive anticipated revenues could magnify the adverse impact of
such events on our operating results. We cannot predict the
extent to which future revenue variations could occur due to
these or other
11
factors. As a result, our results of operations are subject to
significant fluctuation and our results of operations for any
particular quarter or fiscal year may not be indicative of
results of operations for future periods.
We are
subject to extensive government regulation and our government
contracts are subject to audit and investigation rights. Any
violation of the laws and regulations applicable to us or a
negative audit or investigation finding could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flow.
Our business is regulated by the federal government and the
states in which we operate. The laws and regulations governing
our operations are generally intended to benefit and protect
health plan members and providers, rather than stockholders. The
government agencies administering these laws and regulations
have broad latitude to enforce them. These laws and regulations,
along with the terms of our government contracts, regulate how
we do business, what services we offer and how we interact with
our clients, providers and the public. We are subject, on an
ongoing basis, to various governmental reviews, audits and
investigations to verify our compliance with our contracts and
applicable laws and regulations.
In addition, because we receive payments from federal and state
governmental agencies, we are subject to various laws, including
the Federal False Claims Act, which permit the federal
government to institute suits against us for violations and, in
some cases, to seek treble damages, penalties and assessments.
Many states, including states where we currently do business,
likewise have enacted parallel legislation. In addition, private
citizens, acting as whistleblowers, can sue on behalf of the
government under a special provision of the False Claims Act.
If the government discovers improper or illegal activities in
the course of audits or investigations, we may be subject to
various civil and criminal penalties and administrative
sanctions, which may include termination of contracts,
forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and
suspensions and debarment from doing business with the
government. If we are found to be in violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or if we receive an adverse review, audit or
investigation, any resulting negative publicity, penalties or
sanctions could have an adverse affect on our reputation in the
industry, impair our ability to compete for new contracts and
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flow.
Changes
in the United States healthcare environment and steps we take in
anticipation of such changes, particularly as they relate to the
recently adopted ACA, could have a material negative impact on
our business financial condition, results of operations and cash
flow.
The healthcare industry in the United States is subject to
changing political, economic and regulatory influences that may
affect the procurement practices and operations of healthcare
organizations and agencies. The ACA was signed into law in March
2010 and in general seeks to reduce health care costs and
decrease over time the number of uninsured legal
U.S. residents. Especially because of the
legislations strong emphasis on program integrity and cost
containment, we regard this legislation, on the whole, as
creating potential, new opportunities for the expansion of our
business and service offerings. However, it is difficult to
predict the full impact of the legislation due to its
complexity, as well as a wide range of other factors
contributing to the uncertainty of the present healthcare
landscape. These factors include a current lack of implementing
regulations or administrative policy guidance, the
unpredictability of responses by states, businesses and other
entities to various choices available to them under the law and
the possibility that implementation of some or all of the
legislation could be blocked by Court challenges, repealed by
Congressional efforts or otherwise modified at the state-level.
We have made and will continue to make investments in personnel,
infrastructure and product development, as well as in the
overall expansion of the services that we offer in order to
support existing and new clients as they prepare for and
implement the requirements of the ACA. However, the uncertain
status of ACA implementation, combined with the unpredictability
of the consequences of certain of its provisions, makes it
difficult to determine which and when, adaptive changes should
be undertaken. Our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flow could be adversely affected if efforts
to repeal, waive, modify or otherwise change the ACA, in whole
or in part, succeed or, if the ACA is implemented as adopted and
we are unable to adapt our products and services to meet its
requirements.
In sum, recent or future legislative enactments may increase or
decrease government involvement in healthcare, lower
reimbursement rates
and/or
otherwise change the operating environment for our clients.
12
Healthcare organizations may react to changed circumstances,
financial pressures and uncertainty surrounding ACA
implementation by curtailing or deferring their retention of
service providers such as us, thus reducing the demand for our
services and, in turn, materially adversely affecting our
business, financial condition, operational outcomes and cash
flow.
Simplification
of the healthcare payment process could reduce the need for and
the price of our services.
The complexity of the healthcare payment process and our
experience in offering services that improve the ability of our
clients to recover incremental revenue through that process have
contributed to the success of our service offerings.
Complexities of the healthcare payment process include multiple
payors and the coordination and utilization of clinical,
operational, financial
and/or
administrative review instituted by third-party payors in an
effort to control costs and manage care. If the payment
processes associated with the healthcare industry are simplified
significantly, the need for our services, or the price clients
are willing to pay for our services, could be reduced, which
could materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Budget
deficits and/or fluctuations in the number of requests for
proposals issued by governments and their agencies may adversely
impact our business.
A significant percentage of our fiscal year 2010 revenues were
derived from contracts with federal, state and local governments
and their agencies. Our growth strategy includes aggressively
pursuing new opportunities, leveraging our expertise to acquire
new clients at the state, federal and employer levels and
expanding our current contracts to provide new services to
current clients. From time to time, government clients may face
budget deficits. This is particularly true as a result of
current economic conditions. Also, the number of requests for
proposals, or RFPs, issued by government agencies is subject to
fluctuation. If government budgets are reduced, then the
services we provide could be considered non-essential, our
contracts could be terminated and future contracting
opportunities for government contracts could be limited. In
addition, payments due to us from government agencies may be
delayed due to billing cycles or as a result of failures to
approve governmental budgets in a timely manner, which would
increase our use of working capital. The failure to receive
timely payments, as well as the loss of existing government
contracts and future contracting opportunities, could materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flow.
We must
comply with laws and regulations regarding patient privacy and
information security, including taking steps to ensure that our
workforce, our subcontractors and our business associates who
obtain access to sensitive patient information maintain its
confidentiality. Our failure, or a failure by our subcontractors
or business associates, to comply with those laws and
regulations, whether or not inadvertent, could subject us to
legal actions and negatively impact our operations.
We process, transmit and store information relating to
identifiable individuals, both in our role as a service provider
and as an employer. The use of individually identifiable data by
our business is regulated at the federal and state levels. These
laws and rules are changed frequently by legislation or
administrative interpretation. Various state laws address the
use and disclosure of individually identifiable health data.
Most are derived from the privacy and security provisions in the
federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, as amended
by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical
Health Act, or HITECH. HIPAA also imposes standards and
requirements on our business associates (as this term is defined
in the HIPAA regulations) and our other subcontractors. Even
though we take measures to comply with all applicable
regulations and to ensure that our business associates and
subcontractors are in compliance, we still have limited control
over their actions and practices. Compliance with these
proposals, requirements and new regulations may result in cost
increases due to necessary systems changes, the development of
new administrative processes and the effects of potential
noncompliance by our business associates and subcontractors.
Such proposals, requirements and new regulations also may impose
further restrictions on our use of patient identifiable data
that is housed in one or more of our administrative databases.
We have implemented security systems with the intent of
maintaining the physical security of our facilities and
protecting our clients and our suppliers
confidential information and information related to identifiable
individuals against unauthorized access through our information
systems or by other electronic transmission or through
13
the misdirection, theft or loss of physical media. These
include, for example, the encryption of information. Despite
such efforts, we may become subject to a breach of our security
systems which may result in unauthorized access to our
facilities
and/or the
protected information.
If we, or our subcontractors that receive or utilize
confidential information on our behalf, fail to comply with
applicable laws or if unauthorized parties gain physical access
to one of our facilities or electronic access to our information
systems or such information is misdirected, lost or stolen
during transmission or transport, any theft or misuse of such
information could result in, among other things, unfavorable
publicity, governmental inquiry and oversight, difficulty in
marketing our services, allegations by our clients that we have
not performed our contractual obligations, litigation by
affected parties and possible financial obligations for damages
related to the theft or misuse of such information, any of which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flow.
We obtain
a significant portion of our business through competitive
bidding in response to government RFPs. We may not be awarded
contracts through this process on the same level in the future
as in the past. If we fail to accurately estimate the factors
upon which we base our contract pricing, we may generate less
profit than expected or incur losses on those
contracts.
In order to market our services to clients, we are often
required to respond to government RFPs to compete for a
contract. This requires that we accurately estimate our cost
structure for servicing a proposed contract, the time required
to establish operations and likely terms of the proposals
submitted by competitors. We must also assemble and submit a
large volume of information within an RFPs rigid
timetable. Our ability to respond successfully to RFPs will
greatly impact our business. We cannot assure you that we will
continue to obtain contracts in response to government RFPs or
that our proposals will result in profitable contracts. In
addition, competitors may protest contracts awarded to us
through the RFP process which may cause the award to be delayed
or overturned or may require the client to reinitiate the RFP
process.
Our pricing is dependent on our internal forecasts and
predictions about our projects and the marketplace, which might
be based on limited data and could turn out to be inaccurate. A
majority of our contracts are contingency fee based. For
contingency fee based offerings, we receive our fee based on
recoveries received by our clients. To earn a profit on a
contingency fee offering, we must accurately estimate costs
involved and assess the probability of completing individual
transactions within the contracted time period. Our contracts
with the federal government generally are cost-plus or time and
material based. Revenue on cost-plus contracts is recognized
based on costs incurred plus an estimate of the negotiated fee
earned. If we do not accurately estimate the costs and timing
for completing projects, or if we encounter increased or
unexpected costs, delays, failures or risks, including those
outside our control, our contracts could prove unprofitable for
us or yield lower profit margins than anticipated. Although we
believe that we have recorded adequate provisions in our
financial statements for losses on our fixed-price and cost-plus
contracts where applicable, as required under United States
generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, we
cannot assure you that our contract loss provisions will be
adequate to cover all actual future losses.
Our
business depends on effective information systems and the
integrity of the data in our information systems. A major
failure of our information systems could harm our
business.
Our ability to conduct our operations and accurately report our
financial results depends on the integrity of the data in our
information systems. These information systems and applications
require continual maintenance, upgrading and enhancement to meet
our operational needs and handle our expansion and growth. In
addition, as a result of our acquisition activities, we have
acquired additional systems that have to be phased out or
integrated with our current systems. If we encounter a business
disruption, if we find the information we rely upon to run our
businesses to be inaccurate or unreliable, or if we fail to
maintain our information systems and data integrity effectively
and our business continuity plans do not effectively compensate
on a timely basis, we could suffer operational disruptions, loss
of existing clients, difficulty in attracting new clients or in
implementing our growth strategies, problems establishing
appropriate pricing, disputes with clients, civil or criminal
penalties, regulatory problems, increases in administrative
expenses, loss of our ability to produce timely and accurate
financial and other reports, or other adverse consequences, any
of which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
14
We depend
on information suppliers. If we are unable to successfully
manage our relationships with a number of these suppliers, the
quality and availability of our services may be
harmed.
We obtain some of the data used in our services from third party
suppliers and government entities. If a number of suppliers are
no longer able or are unwilling to provide us with certain data,
we may need to find alternative sources. If we are unable to
identify and contract with suitable alternative data suppliers
and integrate these data sources into our service offerings, we
could experience service disruptions, increased costs and
reduced quality of our services. Additionally, if one or more of
our data suppliers terminates our existing agreements, we cannot
assure you that we will be able to obtain new agreements with
other data suppliers on terms favorable to us, if at all. Loss
of such access or the unavailability of data in the future due
to increased governmental regulation or otherwise could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flow.
We may
rely on subcontractors and partners to provide clients with a
single-source solution.
From time to time, we may engage subcontractors, teaming
partners or other third parties to provide our clients with a
single-source solution. While we believe that we perform
appropriate due diligence on our subcontractors and teaming
partners, we cannot guarantee that those parties will comply
with the terms set forth in their agreements. We may have
disputes with our subcontractors, teaming partners or other
third parties arising from the quality and timeliness of their
work, client concerns about them or other matters. Subcontractor
performance deficiencies or misconduct could result in a client
terminating our contract for default
and/or could
adversely affect our client relationships. We may be exposed to
liability and we and our clients may be adversely affected if a
subcontractor or teaming partner fails to meet its contractual
obligations.
We use
software vendors, utility providers and network providers in our
business and could be materially adversely affected if they
cannot deliver or perform as expected or if our relationships
with them are terminated or otherwise change.
Our ability to service our clients and deliver and implement
solutions requires that we work with certain third party
providers, including software vendors, utility and network
providers and depends on their meeting our expectations in a
timely and quality manner. Our business could be materially and
adversely affected and we might incur significant additional
liabilities if the services provided by these third party
providers do not meet our expectations or if they terminate or
refuse to renew their relationships with us or were to offer
their products to us in the future on less advantageous terms.
In addition, while there are backup systems in many of our
operating facilities, an extended outage of utility or network
services may have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
The
federal government may limit or prohibit the outsourcing of
certain programs or may refuse to grant consents and/or waivers
necessary to permit private entities, such as us, to perform
certain elements of government programs.
The federal government could limit or prohibit private
contractors like us from operating or performing elements of
certain government programs. State or local governments could be
required to operate such programs with government employees as a
condition of receiving federal funding. Moreover, under current
law, in order to privatize certain functions of government
programs, the federal government must grant a consent
and/or
waiver to the petitioning state or local agency. If the federal
government does not grant a necessary consent or waiver, the
state or local agency will be unable to outsource that function
to a private entity, such as us. This situation could eliminate
a contracting opportunity or reduce the value of an existing
contract.
We may be
precluded from bidding and performing certain work due to other
work we currently perform.
Various laws, regulations and administrative policies prohibit
companies from performing work for government agencies that
might be viewed to create an actual or apparent conflict of
interest. These factors may limit our ability to pursue and
perform certain types of work. In particular, CMS has strict
conflict of interest requirements which can limit our bidding
for specific work for CMS. State governments also have conflict
of interest
15
requirements that could limit our ability to bid for certain
work. Conflict of interest requirements constantly change at the
federal, state and municipal levels and we cannot assure you
that we will be successful in securing new business for entities
for which we are currently conducting or have conducted
services. If we are prevented from expanding our business due to
conflicts of interest, our business could be adversely affected.
If we do
not successfully integrate the businesses that we acquire, our
results of operations could be adversely affected.
Historically, we have made a significant number of acquisitions
that have expanded the products and services we offer, provided
a presence in a complementary business or expanded our
geographic presence. Business combinations involve a number of
factors that affect operations, including:
|
|
|
|
|
diversion of managements attention;
|
|
|
|
loss of key personnel;
|
|
|
|
entry into unfamiliar markets;
|
|
|
|
assumption of unanticipated legal or financial liabilities;
|
|
|
|
becoming significantly leveraged as a result of incurring debt
to finance an acquisition;
|
|
|
|
unanticipated operating, accounting or management difficulties
in connection with the acquired entities;
|
|
|
|
impairment of acquired intangible assets, including
goodwill; and
|
|
|
|
dilution to our earnings per share.
|
We intend to continue our acquisition strategy. We cannot,
however, assure you that we will be able to identify any
potential acquisition candidates or consummate any additional
acquisitions or that any future acquisitions will be
successfully integrated or will be advantageous to us. Entities
we acquire may not achieve the revenue and earnings we
anticipated or their liabilities may exceed our expectations.
Client dissatisfaction or performance problems with an acquired
entity could materially and adversely affect our reputation as a
whole. In addition, notwithstanding due diligence exercised
during the acquisition process, we may subsequently be exposed
to unanticipated financial liability
and/or
negative publicity related to prior acts by the acquired entity.
We may be unable to profitably manage entities that we have
acquired or that we may acquire or we may fail to integrate them
successfully without incurring substantial expenses, delays or
other problems, any of which could adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flow.
We may
not be able to realize the entire book value of goodwill and
other intangible assets from acquisitions.
As of December 31, 2010, we have approximately
$107.4 million of goodwill and $19.8 million of
intangible assets. We periodically assess these assets to
determine if they are impaired. We monitor for impairment of
goodwill on past and future acquisitions. We perform our
impairment testing in the second quarter of each year. In the
event that the book value of goodwill is impaired, any such
impairment would be charged to earnings in the period of
impairment. We cannot assure you that future impairment of
goodwill will not have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flow.
We may be
unable to attract and retain sufficient qualified personnel to
properly operate our business.
The ability of our executive officers and our senior managers to
generate business and execute projects successfully is important
to our success. In addition, our delivery of services is
labor-intensive. When we are awarded a contract, we must quickly
hire project leaders and case management personnel. The
additional staff also creates a concurrent demand for increased
administrative personnel. Our success requires that we attract,
develop, motivate and retain experienced and innovative
executive officers; senior managers who have successfully
managed or designed government services programs; and
information technology professionals who have designed or
implemented complex information technology projects.
16
Innovative, experienced and technologically proficient
individuals are in great demand and are likely to remain a
limited resource. We cannot assure you that we will be able to
continue to attract and retain desirable executive officers and
senior managers. Our inability to hire sufficient personnel on a
timely basis or the loss of significant numbers of executive
officers, senior managers or information technology
professionals could adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Risks
Related to Our Common Stock
The
market price of our common stock may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated widely and
may continue to do so. For example, during the 52-week period
ended February 18, 2011, the closing price of our common
stock on the NASDAQ Global Select market ranged from a high of
$73.92 per share, to a low of $45.02 per share. We expect our
stock price to be subject to fluctuations as a result of a
variety of factors, including factors beyond our control. Some
of these factors are:
|
|
|
|
|
actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations;
|
|
|
|
the gain or loss of significant contracts;
|
|
|
|
delays in our development and introduction of new services;
|
|
|
|
changes in government policies or regulations;
|
|
|
|
developments in our relationships with current or future clients
and suppliers;
|
|
|
|
operating and stock price performance of other companies that
investors deem comparable to our company;
|
|
|
|
news reports relating to trends, concerns and other issues in
the healthcare industry;
|
|
|
|
perceptions in the marketplace regarding us
and/or our
competitors;
|
|
|
|
acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships,
joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving us or our
competitors;
|
|
|
|
political developments affecting healthcare at the federal,
state or local level;
|
|
|
|
our failure to integrate acquisitions or realize anticipated
benefits from acquisitions;
|
|
|
|
the hiring or departure of key personnel;
|
|
|
|
the introduction of new services by us or our competitors;
|
|
|
|
changes in estimates of our performance or recommendations by
securities analysts;
|
|
|
|
future sales of shares of common stock in the public market;
|
|
|
|
securities class action or other litigation; and
|
|
|
|
market conditions in the industry and the economy as a whole.
|
In addition, the stock market often experiences significant
price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations are often
unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.
These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock. When the market price of a
companys stock drops significantly, shareholders often
institute securities class action litigation against that
company. Any litigation against us could cause us to incur
substantial costs, divert the time and attention of our
management and other resources, or otherwise harm our business.
Failure
to fully comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002 could negatively affect our business, the price of our
common stock and market confidence in our reported financial
information.
We periodically evaluate and test our internal control over
financial reporting to satisfy the requirements of
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Our management has
concluded that our internal control over financial
17
reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010. If in the
future we are unable to report that our internal control over
financial reporting is effective (or if our auditors do not
agree with our assessment of the effectiveness of, or are unable
to express an opinion on, our internal control over financial
reporting), investors, customers and business partners could
lose confidence in the accuracy of our financial reports, which
could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business,
investor confidence in our financial results may weaken and our
stock price may suffer.
Certain
provisions of our certificate of incorporation could discourage
unsolicited takeover attempts, which could depress the market
price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up
to 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred
stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be
determined by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of
Directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue
preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting
or other rights, that could adversely affect the voting power or
other rights of holders of our common stock. In the event of
issuance, preferred stock could be utilized, under certain
circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or
preventing a change in control. Although we have no present
intention to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot
assure you that we will not do so in the future. In addition,
our by-laws provide for a classified Board of Directors, which
could also have the effect of discouraging a change of control.
Because
we do not intend to pay dividends, you will benefit from an
investment in our common stock only if it appreciates in
value.
We have paid no cash dividends on any of our capital stock to
date and we currently intend to retain our future earnings, if
any, to fund the development and growth of our business. As a
result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. The success of your investment in our common
stock will likely depend entirely upon any future appreciation.
There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in
value or even maintain the price at which you purchased your
shares.

None.
Our New York City corporate headquarters consists of
approximately 87,500 square feet of leased space, of which
35,000 square feet is subleased to other occupants. If not
renewed, the lease for our corporate headquarters will expire in
May 2013. In June 2010, we purchased the 223,000 square
foot office building in Irving, Texas which houses the primary
center for our operational activities. We currently occupy
approximately 131,000 square feet of the building. As of
December 31, 2010, we leased approximately
289,000 square feet of office space in 38 other locations
throughout the United States, the leases for which expire
between 2011 and 2016. See Note 12 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information
about our lease commitments. In general, we believe our
facilities are suitable to meet our current and reasonably
anticipated needs.

|
|
Discontinued Operations In 2005, we sold our former
subsidiary, Accordis Inc., or Accordis. This business was
previously presented as a separate reportable segment and
represented a separate class of clients and major business.
Accordingly, the operating results are presented as discontinued
operations for all periods presented.
|
|
|
|
In August 2010, we acquired the assets and liabilities of
Chapman Kelly for $13.0 million in cash. Chapman Kelly,
which is based in Jeffersonville, Indiana, provides dependent
eligibility audits to large, self-insured employers, as well as
plan and claims audits to both employers and managed care
organizations. The acquisition of Chapman Kelly did not have a
material effect on our 2010 revenue, earnings, earnings per
share or liquidity.
|
|
|
|
In June 2010, we purchased all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of AMG-SIU for a purchase price valued at
$15.1 million, consisting of a $13.0 million initial
cash payment (subsequently reduced by a working capital
reduction of $0.2 million), and future contingent payments
estimated and recognized as of the acquisition date at $2.3
million. These payments are contingent upon AMG-SIUs
financial performance for each of the twelve month periods
ending June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012. The contingent
payments are not subject to any cap. The undiscounted contingent
payments are currently estimated to be $3.4 million and
relate to the 12 month period ending June 30, 2012.
AMG-SIU, which is based in Santa Ana, California, specializes in
fraud, waste and abuse prevention and detection solutions for
healthcare payors, which further strengthens our ability to
service this segment of the market. The acquisition of AMG-SIU
did not have a material effect on our 2010 revenue, earnings,
earnings per share or liquidity.
|
|
|
|
In December 2009, we acquired the assets and liabilities of
Verify Solutions, LLC or Verify Solutions for $8.1 million,
with additional future payments of up to $5.5 million
contingent upon future financial performance ($2.7 million
and $2.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2010
and 2011, respectively). The additional future payments will be
made and recorded as compensation expense in the year in which
the milestones are expected to be achieved. No compensation
expense was recorded in 2010 as the performance milestones were
not achieved. Verify Solutions specializes in dependent
eligibility audit services for large, self-insured employers and
is based in Alpharetta, Georgia. With this acquisition, we moved
into the large and mid-market employer-based market.
|
|
|
|
In September 2009, we acquired the assets and liabilities of
IntegriGuard, LLC, or Integriguard, for $5.1 million.
IntegriGuard, which operates as our wholly owned subsidiary,
provides services for the prevention and detection of fraud,
waste and abuse in the healthcare system and is based in Omaha,
Nebraska. This acquisition expanded our portfolio of program
integrity service offerings for government healthcare programs,
particularly in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
|
|
|
|
In September 2008, we purchased the assets and liabilities of
Prudent Rx for $4.5 million in cash. Prudent Rx is a
pharmacy audit and cost containment company based in Culver
City, California. This acquisition expanded our portfolio of
program integrity service offerings for government healthcare
programs and managed care organizations, particularly in the
pharmacy arena. The acquisition of Prudent Rx did not have a
material effect on our 2010, 2009 and 2008 revenue, earnings,
earnings per share or liquidity.
|
|
|
|
In September 2006, we acquired the assets and liabilities of the
BSPA for $81.2 million in cash, 1,749,800 shares of
our common stock, then valued at $24.4 million and a
contingent cash payment of up to $15.0 million payable upon
BSPAs achievement of certain revenue targets for the
twelve months ended June 30, 2007. In September 2007, we
paid PCG $15.0 million of additional consideration as a
result of BSPAs achievement of the revenue targets. BSPA,
which is based in Boston, Massachusetts, provides a variety of
cost avoidance, insurance verification, recovery audit and
related services to state Medicaid agencies, children and family
services agencies and the U.S. Department of Veterans
Affairs.

Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
|
We begin Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations with a discussion of the
critical accounting policies that we believe are important to
understanding the assumptions and
22
judgments incorporated in our reported financial results. We
then present a business overview followed by a discussion of our
results of operations. Lastly, we provide an analysis of our
liquidity and capital resources, including discussions of our
cash flows, sources of capital and financial commitments.
The following discussions and analysis of financial condition
and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the
other sections of this Annual Report, including the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Supplemental Data thereto appearing in
Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report, the Risk
Factors appearing in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual
Report and the disclaimer regarding forward-looking statements
appearing at the beginning of Part I, Item 1 of this
Annual Report. Historical results set forth in Part II,
Item 6, Item 7 and Item 8 of this Annual Report
should not be taken as necessarily indicative of our future
operations.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition. A majority of our
contracts are contingency fee based. We recognize revenue on
contingency fee based contracts when third party payors remit
payment to our clients and, consequently, the contingency is
deemed to have been satisfied. For certain contracts, this may
result in revenue being recognized in irregular increments. We
recognize revenue on our general service agreements as work is
performed and amounts are earned. We consider amounts to be
earned once evidence of an arrangement has been obtained,
services are delivered, fees are fixed or determinable and
collectability is reasonably assured. Our contracts with the
federal government generally are cost-plus or time and material
based. Revenue on cost-plus contracts is recognized based on
costs incurred plus an estimate of the negotiated fee earned.
Revenue on time and materials contracts is recognized based on
hours worked and expenses incurred.
Where contracts have multiple deliverables, we evaluate these
deliverables at the inception of each contract and as each item
is delivered. As part of this evaluation, we consider whether
(i) a delivered item has value to a client on a stand-alone
basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the
fair market value of the undelivered items; and (iii) the
delivery of the undelivered items is considered probable and
substantially within our control, if a general right of return
exists. Where deliverables, or groups of deliverables, have all
three of these characteristics, we treat each deliverable item
as a separate unit of accounting and apply the relevant revenue
recognition guidance to each deliverable. Arrangements,
including implementation and transaction related revenue, are
accounted for as a single unit of accounting. Since
implementation services do not carry a standalone value, the
revenue relating to these services is recognized over the term
of the client contract to which it relates.
Expense Classifications: Our cost of services
in our statement of income is presented in the seven categories
set forth below. Each category of cost excludes costs relating
to selling, general and administrative functions, which are
presented separately as a component of total operating expenses.
A description of the primary costs included in each cost of
service category is provided below:
|
|
|
|
|
Compensation: Salary, fringe benefits and bonus.
|
|
|
|
Data processing: Hardware, software and data
communication costs.
|
|
|
|
Occupancy: Rent, utilities, depreciation, office
equipment, repair and maintenance costs.
|
|
|
|
Direct project costs: Variable costs incurred from third
party providers that are directly associated with specific
revenue generating projects and employee travel expense.
|
|
|
|
Other operating costs: Professional fees, temporary
staffing, travel and entertainment, insurance and local and
property tax costs.
|
|
|
|
Amortization of intangibles: Amortization cost of
acquisition-related software and intangible assets.
|
|
|
|
Selling, general and administrative: Costs related to
general management, marketing and administration activities
including stock-based compensation costs.
|
Accounting for Income Taxes. We file income tax returns
with the federal government and various state jurisdictions. We
are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax
examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007. Our 2008
federal tax return is currently being examined by the Internal
Revenue Service. We operate in a number of state and local
jurisdictions, most of which have never audited our records.
Accordingly, we are subject to state and local income tax
examinations based upon the various statutes of limitations in
each jurisdiction.
23
There was a decrease in our valuation allowance of
$2.6 million from December 31, 2009 to
December 31, 2010, as a result of the expiration of the
capital loss carry forward. The sale of our subsidiary Accordis,
in 2005, resulted in a capital loss of $6.0 million, which
was carried forward for five years and produced a deferred tax
asset of $2.5 million, which expired December 31,
2010. Our remaining valuation allowance of $0.1 million at
December 31, 2010 relates to certain state NOLs. There is
sufficient doubt about our ability to utilize these NOLs that it
is more likely than not that these state NOLs are not realizable.
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had approximately
$1.4 million and $1.0 million of net unrecognized tax
benefits, respectively, for which there is uncertainty about the
allocation and apportionment impacting state taxable income. We
do not expect any significant change in unrecognized tax
benefits during the next twelve months. The accrued liabilities
related to uncertain tax positions were $0.5 million and
$0.4 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. The additions to the accrued liabilities related
to uncertain tax positions taken during 2010.
Valuation of long lived and intangible assets and
goodwill. Goodwill, representing the excess of
acquisition costs over the fair value of the assets and
liabilities of acquired businesses, is not amortized but is
reviewed for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit
level and written down only in the periods in which it is
determined that the recorded value is greater than its fair
value. We determine fair value based on a projected discounted
cash flow method using a discount rate reflective of our cost of
funds. The fair values of our reporting units are substantially
in excess of their carrying value. Accordingly, we have not
recorded impairment losses for any of our acquisitions.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may
not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment
review include the following:
|
|
|
|
|
significant underperformance relative to historical or projected
future operating results;
|
|
|
|
significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired
assets or the strategy for our overall business;
|
|
|
|
significant negative industry or economic trends;
|
|
|
|
significant decline in our stock price for a sustained
period; and
|
|
|
|
a decrease in our market capitalization relative to our net book
value.
|
We determine the recoverability of the carrying value of our
long-lived assets based on a projection of the estimated
undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the
use of the asset. When we determine that the carrying value of
long-lived assets may not be recoverable, we measure any
impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset with
the fair value of the asset. For identifiable intangibles, we
determine fair value based on a projected discounted cash flow
method using a discount rate reflective of our cost of funds.
Estimating valuation allowances and accrued liabilities, such
as bad debts. The preparation of financial
statements requires our management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount
of revenue and expenses during the reported period. In
particular, management must make estimates of the probability of
collecting our accounts receivable. When evaluating the adequacy
of the allowance for doubtful accounts, management reviews our
accounts receivable based on an analysis of historical bad
debts, client concentrations, client credit-worthiness, current
economic trends and changes in our client payment terms. As of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, the accounts receivable balance
was $75.1 million and $64.7 million, net of allowance
for doubtful accounts of $0.8 million and
$0.6 million, respectively.
Stock-based Compensation. We grant stock
options to purchase our common stock, restricted stock awards
and restricted stock units to our employees and director.
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date
based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as
expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
period, which is generally the vesting period. Stock options
granted under our 2006 or 1999 Plan generally vest over a one to
four year period. The restricted stock awards and restricted
stock units granted under our 2006 Plan vest over a three to
five year period and the related stock-based compensation
expense is ratably recognized over those same time periods.
24
We estimate the fair value of options granted using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The application of this
valuation model involves assumptions that are highly subjective,
judgmental and sensitive in the determination of compensation
cost. The Black-Scholes model incorporates the expected term of
the option, the expected volatility of the price of our common
stock, risk free interest rates and the expected dividend yield
of our common stock. Expected volatilities are calculated based
on the historical volatility of our stock. Management monitors
stock option exercise and employee termination patterns to
estimate forfeiture rates within the valuation model. Separate
groups of employees that have similar historical exercise
behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes. The
expected holding period of options represents the period of time
that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The
risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life
of the option is based on the interest rate of a
5-year
U.S. Treasury Note in effect on the date of the grant. All
share based payment awards are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is
generally the vesting period.
If factors change and we employ different assumptions for
estimating stock-based compensation expense in future periods or
if we decide to use a different valuation model, stock-based
compensation in future periods may differ significantly from
what we have recorded in the current period and could materially
affect our operating income, net income and net income per share.
We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise the
forfeiture rate in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures
differ from our estimates. If actual forfeitures vary from our
estimates, we will recognize the difference in compensation
expense in the period the actual forfeitures occur or at the
time of vesting.
See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for further information regarding our stock-based
compensation plans.
Use of estimates. We prepare our Consolidated
Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In doing
so, we have to make estimates and assumptions that affect our
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses,
as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. In some cases, we could reasonably have used
different accounting policies and estimates. In some cases,
changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to
occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could
differ materially from our estimates. To the extent that there
are material differences between these estimates and actual
results, our financial condition or results of operations will
be affected. We base our estimates on past experience and other
assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the
circumstances and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing
basis. We refer to accounting estimates of this type as critical
accounting policies and estimates, which we have discussed
further above. We have reviewed our critical accounting policies
and estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
The policies described above are not intended to be a
comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many
cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is
specifically dictated by U.S. GAAP, with no need for
managements judgment in their application. There are also
areas in which the audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in this
Form 10-K
contain accounting policies and other disclosures required by
U.S. GAAP.
Business
Overview
Beginning in the first quarter of 2007, we were managed and
operated as one business, with a single management team that
reports to the chief executive officer. We do not operate
separate lines of business with respect to any of our product
lines.
We provide a variety of cost containment services, including
coordination of benefits and program integrity services, for
government and private healthcare payors and sponsors. These
services are designed to help our clients recover amounts due
from liable third parties, save dollars, reduce fraud, waste and
abuse and ensure regulatory compliance.
Our clients are state Medicaid agencies, Medicaid and Medicare
managed care plans, government and private self-funded
employers, PBMs, child support agencies, VHA, CMS, commercial
plans, other healthcare payors and large business outsourcing
and technology firms. We help these entities contain healthcare
costs by ensuring that
25
claims are paid correctly, through our program integrity
services and by ensuring that claims are paid by the responsible
party, through our coordination of benefits services.
At December 31, 2010, our cash and cash equivalents and net
working capital were $94.8 million and $147.5 million,
respectively. In connection with our BSPA acquisition, we
entered into a credit agreement with several banks and other
financial institutions, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as
administrative agent, or the Credit Agreement. The Credit
Agreement, which expires in September 2011, provided for a term
loan of $40 million, or the Term Loan and revolving credit
loans of up to $25 million, or the Revolving Loan. During
the year ended December 31, 2009, we repaid in full the
$17.3 million of debt outstanding under the Term Loan.
Although to date we have not borrowed under the Revolving Loan,
we continue to have an irrevocable standby Letter of Credit for
$4.6 million against the Revolving Loan, as required by a
contractual arrangement with a client. As a result of the Letter
of Credit, the amount available under the Revolving Loan as of
December 31, 2010 is $20.4 million. Although we expect
that operating cash flows will continue to be a primary source
of liquidity for our operating needs, we also have the remaining
balance of the Revolving Loan available for future cash flow
needs, if necessary.
Our revenue, most of which is derived from contingency fees, has
increased at an average compounded rate of approximately 38.2%
per year for the last five years. Our 2010 revenue increased to
$302.9 million, $73.6 million over 2009 revenue. Our
growth has been attributable to our expansion of existing
product offerings and acquisitions, as well as the increase in
Medicaid costs, which has historically averaged approximately 8%
annually. In addition, state governments have increased their
use of vendors for coordination of benefits and other cost
containment functions and we have been able to increase our
revenue through these initiatives. Leveraging our work on behalf
of state Medicaid
fee-for-service
programs, we began to penetrate the Medicaid managed care market
in 2005, into which more Medicaid lives are being shifted. In
addition, to acting as a subcontractor for certain business
outsourcing and technology firms, as of December 31, 2010,
we served 41 state Medicaid agencies and 125 Medicaid
health plans under 57 contracts.
To date, we have grown our business through the internal
development of new services and through acquisitions of
businesses whose core services strengthen our overall mission to
help our clients control healthcare costs. In addition, we
leverage our expertise to acquire new clients at the state,
federal and employer levels and to expand our current contracts
to provide new services to current clients.
With the exception of our acquisition of BSPA, to date we have
used internally generated cash to fund our acquisitions.
Since 2006, we have acquired the following companies:
|
|
|
|
|
Benefits Solutions Practice Area. In September 2006, we
acquired the assets and liabilities of BSPA for
$81.2 million in cash, 1,749,800 shares of our common
stock, then valued at $24.4 million and a contingent cash
payment of $15.0 million, which was paid to BSPA upon its
achievement of certain revenue targets for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2007. BSPA, which is based in Boston,
Massachusetts, provides a variety of cost avoidance, insurance
verification, recovery audit and related services to state
Medicaid agencies, children and family services agencies and the
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
|
|
|
|
Prudent Rx. In September 2008, we purchased the assets
and liabilities of Prudent Rx for $4.5 million in cash.
Prudent Rx is a pharmacy audit and cost containment company
based in Culver City, California. With this acquisition, we
further expanded our portfolio of program integrity service
offerings for government healthcare programs and managed care
organizations, particularly in the pharmacy arena. Prudent
Rxs key products and services include audit programs,
program design and benefit management, as well as general and
pharmacy systems consulting. The acquisition of Prudent Rx did
not have a material effect on 2010, 2009 and 2008 revenue,
earnings, earnings per share or liquidity.
|
|
|
|
IntegriGuard. In September 2009, we acquired the assets
and liabilities of IntegriGuard for $5.1 million.
IntegriGuard, which operates as our wholly owned subsidiary,
provides services for the prevention and detection of fraud,
waste and abuse in the healthcare system and is based in Omaha,
Nebraska. This acquisition expanded our portfolio of program
integrity service offerings for government healthcare programs,
particularly in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

|
|
|
|
Verify Solutions. In December 2009, we acquired the
assets and liabilities of Verify Solutions for
$8.1 million, with additional future payments of up to
$5.5 million contingent upon future financial performance
($2.7 million and $2.8 million for the years ended
December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively). The additional
future payments will be made and recorded as compensation
expense in the year in which the milestones are expected to be
achieved. No compensation expense was recorded in 2010 as the
performance milestones were not achieved. Verify Solutions,
specializes in dependent eligibility audit services for large,
self-insured employers and is based in Alpharetta, Georgia. With
this acquisition, we moved into the large and mid-market
employer-based market.
|

|
|
Allied Management Group Special Investigation
Unit. In June 2010, we purchased all of the issued and
outstanding common stock of AMG-SIU for a purchase price valued
at $15.1 million, consisting of a $13.0 million initial
cash payment (subsequently reduced by a working capital
reduction of $0.2 million), and future contingent payments
estimated and recognized as of the acquisition date at
$2.3 million. These payments are contingent upon
AMG-SIUs financial performance for each of the twelve
month periods ending June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012.
The undiscounted contingent payments are currently estimated to
be $3.4 million and relate to the 12 month period
ending June 30, 2012. AMG-SIU, which is based in Santa Ana,
California; specializes in fraud, waste and abuse prevention and
detection solutions for healthcare payors, which further
strengthens our ability to service this segment of the market.
The acquisition of AMG-SIU did not have a material effect on our
2010 revenue, earnings, earnings per share or liquidity.
|
|
|
|

both employers and managed care organizations. The acquisition
of Chapman Kelly did not have a material effect on our 2010
revenue, earnings, earnings per share or liquidity.

Operating
Results
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010 was
$302.9 million, an increase of $73.6 million, or
32.1%, from revenue of $229.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2009. This increase reflects the organic
growth in existing client accounts of $42.6 million,
together with changes in the yield and scope of those projects
and differences in the timing of when client projects were
completed in the current year compared to the prior year.
Revenue generated by our 2009 acquisitions, IntegriGuard and
Verify Solutions, was $24.9 million, an increase of
$21.2 million compared to the prior year. Revenue generated
by our 2010 acquisitions, AMG-SIU and Chapman Kelly, was
$2.3 million. Revenue generated by approximately 19 new
clients for whom there was no revenue in the prior year was
$14.9 million. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease of $7.4 million as a result of expired contracts.
Compensation expense as a percentage of revenue was 36.2% for
the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 33.7% for the
prior year. Compensation expense was $109.6 million for
2010, an increase of $32.4 million, or 42.0%, from the
prior year compensation expense of $77.2 million. This
increase reflects $24.2 million in additional salary
expense, $6.4 million in additional expense related to
employee benefits and $1.8 million in additional variable
compensation. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we
averaged 1,409 employees, a 43.8% increase over the year
ended December 31, 2009, during which we averaged
980 employees. This increase reflects the addition of new
staff as a result of our acquisitions of AMG-SIU and Chapman
Kelly during the second and third quarters of 2010, respectively
and the addition of staff in the areas of client support,
technical support and operations during 2010.
Data processing expense as a percentage of revenue was 6.0% for
the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 6.0% for the
prior year. Data processing expense was $18.1 million for
2010, an increase of
28
$4.4 million, or 31.9%, from the prior year data processing
expense of $13.7 million. Revenue growth as well as
acquisitions drove the need for increased capacity in our data
processing environment. This increase reflects $2.7 million
in additional software related costs, a $1.1 million
increase for data communications and data costs due to the
growth of our business, including the number of field offices
and employees and a $0.6 million increase in hardware
maintenance and related costs.
Occupancy expense as a percentage of revenue was 4.5% for the
year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 4.7% for the
prior year. Occupancy expense was $13.6 million for 2010,
an increase of $2.8 million, or 25.4%, from the prior year
occupancy expense of $10.9 million. Rent expense increased
$1.3 million in connection with our acquisitions of
IntegriGuard, Verify Solutions, AMG-SIU and Chapman Kelly. Other
increases included a $0.8 million increase in depreciation
of furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements, office and
telephone equipment, a $0.7 million increase in utilities
and telephone expense and a $0.5 million increase in
equipment expense, rental and maintenance, primarily for
photocopy and mail machines. These increases were partially
offset by a decrease of $0.6 million relating to the write
off of accrued rent liabilities following our purchase of the
office building in Irving, Texas. All other rental expenses
increased by $0.1 million.
Direct project expense as a percentage of revenue was 11.7% for
the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 12.4% for the
prior year. Direct project expense for 2010 was
$35.4 million, an increase of $7.0 million, or 24.7%,
from the prior year direct project expense of
$28.4 million. This increase resulted primarily from a
$2.6 million increase in subcontractor expenses primarily
driven by new projects and revenue increases, a
$1.4 million increase for temporary help, consultants and
marketing partners, a $1.3 million increase for lockbox,
postage and delivery expense. Direct project expense increased
at a rate lower than revenue growth due to the composition of
the revenue from our acquisitions which has a lower cost
component.
Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 5.6%
for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 6.1% for
the prior year. Other operating expenses for 2010 were
$17.1 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 22.0%,
from the prior year expense of $14.0 million. This increase
resulted from a $1.7 million increase in professional fees,
including consulting, subcontractors and temporary help, a
$0.7 million increase for supplies, printing, postage,
delivery, a $0.4 million increase for travel expenses and
$0.3 million in accretion expense related to the contingent
payment for AMG-SIU.
Amortization of acquisition-related software and intangibles as
a percentage of revenue was 2.1% for the year ended
December 31, 2010, compared to 2.2% for the prior year.
Amortization of acquisition-related software and intangibles
expenses for 2010 were $6.2 million, an increase of
$1.1 million, or 22.7%, compared to the prior year expense
of $5.1 million. This expense consists primarily of
amortization of client relationships, trade names and software.
The increase in amortization of acquisition-related software and
intangibles expense compared to last year is a result of our
acquisitions of IntegriGuard, Verify Solutions, AMG-SIU and
Chapman Kelly.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenue were 11.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010,
compared to 12.3% for the prior year. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for 2010 were $36.1 million, an
increase of $8.0 million, or 28.4%, compared to the prior
year expense of $28.1 million. During the year ended
December 31, 2010, we averaged 93 employees in the
sales, general and administrative group, a 27.4% increase over
our average of 73 employees in that group during the year
ended December 31, 2009. Compensation increased by
$4.7 million due to a $2.1 million increase due to
headcount additions and annual salary increases, a
$1.2 million increase due to fringe benefits, a
$0.8 million increase in stock compensation expense and a
$0.7 million increase for variable compensation. Other
expenses increased by $3.1 million, of which
$2.1 million related to an increase in professional fees,
consisting of accounting fees, acquisition-related transaction
fees, public company costs and consulting fees.
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was
$67.0 million, or 22.1%, of revenue compared to
$51.9 million, or 22.6%, of revenue for the prior year.
This increase was primarily the result of increased revenue,
which was partially offset by incremental operating costs
incurred during the year ended December 31, 2010.
Interest expense was $0.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2010 compared to $1.1 million for the
same period in 2009. For the year ended December 31, 2010,
interest expense represents commitment fees for our Credit
Agreement and issuance fees for our Letter of Credit. For the
year ended December 31, 2009, interest expense was
29
attributable to borrowings under the Term Loan, amortization of
deferred financing costs, commitment fees for our Credit
Agreement and issuance fees for our Letter of Credit. Interest
income was $94,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010,
compared to interest income of $226,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2009, principally due to lower interest rates,
which were partially offset by higher cash balances. Net other
expenses included $69,000 related to the acquisition of the
office building in Irving, Texas. We did not incur any real
estate expense in the prior period.
Income tax expense of $26.6 million was recorded for the
year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of
$5.6 million compared to the same period in 2009. Our
effective tax rate decreased to 39.9% in 2010 from 41.1% for the
year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to a change in
state apportionments. The principal difference between the
statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate is state taxes.
During 2010, we utilized $32.4 million in tax deductions
arising from 2010 stock option exercises, which resulted in an
excess tax benefit of $12.6 million that was recorded to
capital and an offsetting reduction to taxes payable.
Net income of $40.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2010 represents an increase of
$10.1 million over net income for the same period in 2009
of $30.0 million.

Operating
Results
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2009 was
$229.2 million, an increase of $44.7 million, or
24.3%, from revenue of $184.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 2008. This increase reflected the organic
growth in existing client accounts of $42.7 million,
together with changes in the yield and scope of client projects
and differences in the timing of when client projects were
completed compared to the prior year. Revenue generated by our
2008 and 2009 acquisitions, Prudent Rx and IntegriGuard, was
$5.4 million, an increase of $5.0 million
30
compared to the prior year. Revenue generated by approximately
17 new clients for whom there was no revenue in the prior year
was $5.0 million. These increases were partially offset by
a decrease of $8.0 million as a result of expired contracts.
Compensation expense as a percentage of revenue was 33.7% for
the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to 32.8% for the
prior year. Compensation expense was $77.2 million for
2009, an increase of $16.6 million, or 27.5%, from the
prior year compensation expense of $60.6 million. This
increase reflects $12.5 million in additional salary
expense, $2.4 million in additional expense related to
employee benefits and $1.7 million in additional variable
compensation. For the year ended December 31, 2009, we
averaged 980 employees, a 24.8% increase over the year
ended December 31, 2008, during which we averaged
785 employees. The increase reflects the addition of new
staff as a result of our acquisition of Prudent Rx during the
third quarter of 2008, our acquisition of IntegriGuard during
the third quarter of 2009 and the addition of staff in the areas
of client support, technical support and operations during 2009.
Data processing expense as a percentage of revenue was 6.0% in
both fiscal 2009 and 2008. Data processing expense was
$13.7 million for 2009, an increase of $2.7 million,
or 24.7%, from the prior year data processing expense of
$11.0 million. Revenue growth drove the need for increased
capacity in our data processing environment. This increase
reflects $1.7 million in software related costs,
$0.8 million relating to depreciation and amortization of
equipment and software and $0.2 million relating to network
communications as required by business expansion.
Occupancy expense as a percentage of revenue was 4.7% for the
year ended December 31, 2009, compared to 5.5% for the
prior year. Occupancy expense was $10.9 million for 2009,
an increase of $0.8 million, or 7.9%, from the prior year
occupancy expense of $10.1 million. This increase reflected
$0.5 million of additional equipment expense, rental and
maintenance, $0.5 million of additional utilities and
common area maintenance charges and $0.2 million of
additional depreciation of leasehold improvements, furniture and
fixtures and telephone systems. Rent and other occupancy
expenses decreased by $0.4 million due to the migration of
operational support to our Irving, Texas location and the
savings associated with subleasing one of the floors in our New
York City location.
Direct project expense as a percentage of revenue was 12.4% for
the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to 15.3% for the
prior year. Direct project expense for 2009 remained the same as
the prior fiscal year expense of $28.4 million. Direct
project expense increased at a lower rate than revenue growth
due to our efforts to reduce subcontractor utilization by
bringing work in-house, savings related to efficiencies and
economies of scale and the content of revenue earned during the
year.
Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 6.1%
for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to 5.9% for
the prior year. Other operating expenses for 2009 were
$14.0 million, an increase of $3.2 million, or 29.5%,
from the prior year expense of $10.8 million. This increase
represents a $1.2 million increase in professional fees,
including consulting, subcontractor and temporary help, an
increase of $1.2 million in travel expenses and
$0.8 million for supplies, printing, postage, delivery,
management meetings and training expenditures within our
operational departments as a result of the expansion of our
business.
Amortization of acquisition-related software and intangibles as
a percentage of revenue was 2.2% for the year ended
December 31, 2009, compared to 2.6% for the prior year.
Amortization of acquisition-related software and intangibles
expenses for 2009 was $5.1 million, an increase of
$0.4 million, or 7.5%, compared to the prior year expense
of $4.7 million. This expense consists primarily of
amortization of client relationships, trade names and software.
The increase in amortization of acquisition-related software and
intangibles expense compared to last year is a result of our
acquisitions of Prudent Rx in 2008 and IntegriGuard in 2009.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenue were 12.3% for the year ended December 31, 2009,
compared to 12.0% for the prior year. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for 2009 were $28.1 million, an
increase of $6.0 million, or 26.9%, compared to the prior
year expense of $22.1 million. During the year ended
December 31, 2009, we averaged 73 employees in the
sales, general and administrative group, a 17.7% increase over
our average of 62 employees in that group during the year
ended December 31, 2008. Compensation increased by
$4.5 million due to a $2.9 million increase in stock
compensation expense, a $0.7 million increase due to
headcount additions and annual salary increases, a
$0.7 million increase for variable
31
compensation and a $0.2 million increase due to fringe
benefits. Occupancy expense increased by $0.6 million
related to square footage utilization of the sales, general and
administrative group. Other expenses increased by
$1.0 million, of which $0.4 million represented
transaction costs related to the IntegriGuard and Verify
Solutions acquisitions, $0.3 million represented consulting
and other professional fees and $0.3 million represented
employee-related expenses. Data processing expenses decreased by
$0.1 million related to the expiration of software leases.
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was
$51.9 million, or 22.6%, of revenue compared to
$36.7 million, or 19.9%, of revenue for the prior year.
This increase was primarily the result of increased revenue,
which was partially offset by incremental operating costs
incurred during the year ended December 31, 2009.
Interest expense was $1.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2009 compared to $1.5 million for the
same period in 2008. In both periods, interest expense was
attributable to borrowing under the Term Loan and amortization
of deferred financing costs. We repaid the Term Loan in full in
2009. As a result, the decrease in interest expense is due to
both lower variable interest rates and a reduction in the
principal balance of the Term Loan for the year ended
December 31, 2009, compared to the same period in 2008,
partially offset by the full amortization of deferred financing
costs upon our repayment of the Term Loan. Interest income was
$226,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to
interest income of $719,000 for the year ended December 31,
2008, principally due to lower interest rates, which were
partially offset by higher cash balances.
Income tax expense of $21.0 million was recorded for the
year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of
$6.4 million compared to the same period in 2008. Our
effective tax rate increased to 41.1% in 2009, from 40.6% for
the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to a change
in state apportionments. The principal difference between the
statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate is state taxes.
During 2009, we utilized $33.0 million in tax deductions
arising from 2009 stock option exercises, which resulted in an
excess tax benefit of $13.2 million that was recorded to
capital and an offsetting reduction to taxes payable.
Net income of $30.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 2009 represents an increase of
$8.7 million over net income for the same period in 2008 of
$21.4 million.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
Other than our Letter of Credit, we do not have any off-balance
sheet arrangements.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Our principal source of funds has been from operations. We
believe that our cash, cash equivalents, future cash flows from
operations and our revolving credit facility will be adequate to
fund our current operating requirements. At December 31,
2010, our cash and cash equivalents and net working capital were
$94.8 million and $147.5 million, respectively.
Although we expect that operating cash flows will continue to be
a primary source of liquidity for our operating needs, we also
have $20.4 million available under our Revolving Loan for
future cash flow needs. There are currently no loans outstanding
under the Revolving Loan; however, we have a $4.6 million
Letter of Credit that reduces the availability under the
Revolving Loan.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $61.9 million
in 2010, compared to $32.8 million in 2009 and
$30.9 million in 2008. Cash provided by operating
activities primarily resulted from $40.1 million in net
income, $15.9 million in depreciation and amortization, and
$7.5 million in share based compensation, which was
partially offset by a $9.7 million increase in accounts
receivable.
Net cash used in investing activities during 2010 was
$53.7 million, compared to $23.2 million in 2009; and
$11.4 million in 2008. Cash used to purchase the office
building in Irving, Texas in 2010 was $9.9 million. Capital
expenditures, including investments in capital software, in
2010, 2009 and 2008 were $17.6 million, $10.6 million
and $6.9 million, respectively. Cash used for acquisitions
in 2010, 2009 and 2008 was $26.1 million,
$12.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
32
Net cash provided by financing activities during 2010 was
$21.7 million; compared to $6.0 million in 2009; and
$8.5 million in 2008. In 2010, net cash provided by
financing activities consisted of $9.1 million in proceeds
from stock option exercises and an excess tax benefit of
$12.6 million from exercised stock options. Proceeds from
stock option exercises in 2010, 2009 and 2008 were
$9.1 million, $10.1 million and $4.2 million,
respectively. Excess tax benefits from stock option exercises in
2010, 2009 and 2008 were $12.6 million, $13.2 million
and $10.5 million, respectively. Repayment of debt in 2009
and 2008 was $17.3 million and $6.3 million,
respectively. We repaid all of our outstanding debt in 2009;
therefore, no repayment of debt was made in 2010.
The net increase in cash and cash equivalents was
$30.0 million in 2010 compared to $15.6 million in
2009 and $27.9 million in 2008.
The number of days sales outstanding at December 31, 2010
decreased to 78 days compared to 88 days at
December 31, 2009.
Operating cash flows could be adversely affected by a decrease
in demand for our services or if contracts with our largest
clients are cancelled. The majority of our client relationships
have been in place for several years, as a result, we do not
expect any decrease in the demand for our services in the near
term.

Performance based milestone
payments relating to our acquisitions of Verify Solutions,
Chapman Kelly and AMG-SIU have not been included in the table
due to the uncertainty of achieving the future financial
performance targets. In the event that the future performance
targets are met, the resulting aggregate milestone payment
obligation would be approximately $2.8 million and
$3.4 million in 2011 and 2012, respectively.

The amounts presented represent the
future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating
leases. In addition to minimum rent, certain of our leases
require the payment for insurance, maintenance and other costs.
These costs have historically represented approximately 3 to
6 percent of the minimum rent amount. These additional
amounts are not included in the table of contractual obligations
as the timing and/or amounts of such payments are unknown.

On May 28, 1997 the Board of Directors authorized us to
repurchase such number of shares of our common stock that have
an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $10.0 million. On
February 24, 2006, our Board of Directors increased the
aggregate purchase price to an amount not to exceed
$20.0 million. During the years ended December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008, we did not repurchase any shares of our
common stock. Since the inception of the repurchase program, we
have repurchased 1,662,846 shares of our common stock for
an aggregate purchase price of $9.4 million.
We currently have $20.4 million available under our
Revolving Loan for future cash flow needs. There are currently
no loans outstanding under the Revolving Loan; however, we have
a $4.6 million Letter of Credit that
33
reduces the availability under the Revolving Loan. At this time,
management does not expect to borrow under these facilities in
2011.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued guidance on fair value
measurements and disclosures. This guidance establishes a common
definition for fair value to be applied to U.S. GAAP
guidance requiring the use of fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosure
about such fair value measurements.
Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted this guidance on fair
value measurement and have applied its provisions to financial
assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair
value on a recurring basis at least annually. Beginning
January 1, 2009, we adopted this guidance as it related to
nonfinancial assets and liabilities. We applied the provisions
of this guidance in our accounting for our 2009 and 2010
acquisitions.
In September 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance on
measuring the fair value of liabilities effective for the first
reporting period beginning after its issuance.
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that requires
reporting entities to make new disclosures about recurring or
nonrecurring fair-value measurements, including significant
transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair
value measurements and information on purchases, sales,
issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation
of Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is
effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation
disclosures, which are effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2010. We do not expect the adoption of
this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In November 2008, the FASB ratified an issue providing guidance
for accounting for defensive intangible assets subsequent to the
acquisition of such assets in accordance with the new business
combination and fair value standards, including the estimated
useful life that should be assigned to such assets. The new
guidance is effective for intangible assets acquired on or after
December 15, 2008. We have applied the provisions of this
standard to our 2009 and 2010 acquisitions as discussed in
Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related
to the recognition of revenue for multiple-deliverable
arrangements. This guidance provides accounting principles and
application guidance on how the arrangement should be separated,
and the consideration allocated. This guidance changes how to
determine the fair value of undelivered products and services
for separate revenue recognition. Allocation of consideration is
now based on managements estimate of the selling price for
an undelivered item where there is no other means to determine
the fair value of that undelivered item. Also in October 2009,
the FASB issued new accounting guidance altering the scope of
revenue recognition for software deliverables to exclude items
sold that include hardware with software that is essential to
the hardwares functionality. This new guidance will be
effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after
June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. We have
determined that this new guidance will not currently impact our
existing accounting over our multiple element arrangements
described in Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
At fiscal year-end 2010, we were not a party to any derivative
financial instruments. We conduct all of our business in
U.S. currency and hence do not have direct foreign currency
risk. The interest on borrowings under the Credit Agreement is
at a variable rate based on the prime rate or LIBOR and may
include a spread over or under the applicable rate. Further, we
currently invest substantially all of our excess cash in
short-term investments, primarily money market accounts, where
returns effectively reflect current interest rates. As a result,
market interest rate changes may impact our interest income or
expense. The impact will depend on variables such as the
magnitude of rate changes and the level of borrowings or excess
cash balances. We do not consider this risk to be material. We
manage such risk by continuing to evaluate the best investment
rates available for short-term, high quality investments.

Item 8. Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data.
The information required by Item 8 is found on pages 73 to
102 of this Annual Report.
Item 9. Changes
in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure.
None.
Item 9A. Controls
and Procedures.
Conclusion
Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(e)
under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we
file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported as specified in the SECs rules and forms and
that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports
that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by
Rule 13a-15(b)
under the Exchange Act, management, with the participation of
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. Based on
that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of the end of the period covered by this
Annual Report.
Managements
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting. As defined by
Rule 13a-15(f)
of the Exchange Act, internal control over financial reporting
is a process designed by, or under the supervision of our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer and effected
by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
U.S. GAAP.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the consolidated
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of our
management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
could have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In connection with the preparation of our annual consolidated
financial statements, management has undertaken an assessment of
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria
established in Internal Control Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission, or the COSO Framework. Managements
assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal
control over financial reporting and testing of the operational
effectiveness of those controls.
Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of
December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial
reporting was effective in providing reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of the consolidated financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
35
KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that
audited our consolidated financial statements included in this
Annual Report, has issued an attestation report on our
assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, a
copy of which is appears on page 75.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation
of our controls performed during the quarter ended
December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other
Information.
On March 1, 2011, we entered in an Executive Employment
Agreement with William C. Lucia, our President and Chief
Executive Officer. The terms of this Agreement are described in
detail in Item 11 Executive Compensation, under the
captions Executive Employment Agreements and
Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or
Change-in-Control.

The Board of Directors believes that the combination of the
business and professional experience of our directors and the
diversity of their areas of expertise has been a contributing
factor to its effectiveness and provides a valuable resource to
management. With the exception of our President and Chief
Executive Officer, Mr. Lucia, and the latest addition to
our Board, Mr. Schwartz, each of our directors has served
on our Board for more than three years and, in particular,
Ms. Rudnick and Messrs. Miller and Stowe have each
served on our Board for more than ten years. During their
tenures, our directors have gained considerable institutional
knowledge about the Company and its operations. Given the growth
of our business and the rapidly changing healthcare environment,
this continuity of service and development of institutional
knowledge enables our Board to be more efficient and more
effective in developing strategy and long-term plans for the
Company.
A description of the specific experience, qualifications,
attributes and skills that led our Board of Directors to
conclude that each member of the Board of Directors should serve
as a director follows the biographical information of each
director below.

Compensation
Discussion and Analysis
Introduction
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or CD&A,
describes HMSs 2010 executive compensation program and
should be read in conjunction with the compensation tables and
related narrative descriptions that follow those tables. We use
this program to attract, motivate and retain the individuals who
lead our business. In particular, this CD&A explains how
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
Board) made its compensation decisions for our Named
Executive Officers for 2010.
As of the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010,
our Named Executive Officers were:
|
|
|
|
|
William C. Lucia, President and Chief Executive Officer;
|
|
|
|
Walter D. Hosp, Chief Financial Officer;
|
|
|
|
Sean Curtin, Executive Vice President, Operations;
|
|
|
|
Christina Dragonetti, Executive Vice President, Commercial
Markets; and
|
|
|
|
Maria Perrin, Executive Vice President, Government Markets.
|
Executive
Summary
The following is a brief overview of our executive compensation
program and our financial performance in 2010.
|
|
|
|
|
The objectives of our executive compensation program are to
attract, develop, motivate and retain talented executives and to
align their interests with those of our shareholders.
|
|
|
|
Our executive compensation program is designed to provide a
balance of total compensation opportunities that are competitive
with similarly situated companies and reflective of our
performance. Our executive compensation package consists of:
cash in the form of base salary, annual short term (cash)
incentive compensation and long-term incentive awards, primarily
in the form of equity.
|
|
|
|
For the full year 2010, we reported revenue of
$302.9 million, a 32.1% increase over 2009 revenue of
$229.2 million. Also for the full year, we reported net
income increased to $40.1 million, a 33.4% increase over
2009 net income of $30.0 million.
|
42
|
|
|
|
|
During 2010, we completed two strategic acquisitions: Allied
Management Group Special Investigations Unit and
Chapman Kelly, Inc., further strengthening our products and
services as we prepare our clients for addressing the
requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,
as amended.
|
The following highlights the Compensation Committees key
compensation decisions for 2010, as reported in the 2010 Summary
Compensation Table. These decisions were made with the advice of
the Compensation Committees independent consultant,
Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc., or FWC, (see Role
of Compensation Consultant below) and are discussed in
greater detail elsewhere in this CD&A.
|
|
|
|
|
In 2010, our executive group was expanded to include, among
others, Mr. Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin. Their
inclusion in the executive team was based on their increased
responsibilities under Mr. Lucias stewardship of the
Company and their contributions to its overall growth and
performance. In connection with this expansion of the executive
team, the Compensation Committee undertook, with the assistance
of FWC, a full review of executive compensation. In recognition
of the Companys performance, the integral role of the
Named Executive Officers in achieving this performance and the
Boards desire to maintain this core executive group, the
Compensation Committee set, as a general guideline for setting
2010 compensation, a total direct compensation package for the
Named Executive Officers at between the median and the 75th
percentile for our 2010 Peer Group (as described below).
|
|
|
|
In July 2010, in connection with the expansion of our executive
team, base salaries for our Named Executive Officers were
increased to approximate between the median and the
75th
percentile for our 2010 Peer Group.
|
|
|
|
Annual short term (cash) incentive compensation for the Named
Executive Officers was determined in January 2011. The 2010
awards for the Named Executive Officers were paid at an average
of 135.3% of target. The awards were based on predefined
financial objectives, primarily consisting of achievement of net
income, operating income and departmental operating income
targets.
|
|
|
|
Regular annual long-term incentive awards were granted in
October 2010.
|
|
|
|
In February 2011 the Board approved the grant, to our Named
Executive Officers of restricted stock units with an aggregate
value of $4.95 million. An aggregate of 66,962 restricted
stock units were granted to our Named Executive Officers on
February 18, 2011, based on the closing price of our common
stock of $73.92 on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on that date.
The restricted stock units vest in 25% increments, with the
first 25% vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date
and the remainder vesting ratably on the third, fourth and fifth
anniversaries of the grant date.

Objectives
and Philosophy of Our Executive Compensation Program
Our mission is to be a significant provider of quality services
in the markets we serve. To support this and other strategic
objectives as approved by the Board and to provide adequate
returns to shareholders, we must compete for, attract, develop,
motivate and retain top quality executive talent at the
corporate office and operating business units during periods of
both favorable and unfavorable business conditions.
Our executive compensation program is a critical management tool
in achieving this goal. Pay for performance is the
underlying philosophy for our executive compensation program.
Consistent with this philosophy, the program has been carefully
conceived and is independently administered by the Compensation
Committee, which is comprised entirely of non-employee directors.
The program is designed and administered to:
|
|
|
|
|
align the interests of our senior executives with the interests
of our shareholders, thus rewarding individual and team
achievements that contribute to the attainment of our business
goals; and
|
|
|
|
provide a balance of total compensation opportunities, including
salary, bonus and longer-term cash and equity incentives that
are competitive with similarly situated companies and reflective
of our performance.
|
43
Role of
Management
Our President and Chief Executive Officer develops
recommendations regarding executive compensation program design
and individual compensation levels for our other Named Executive
Officers and certain other highly compensated individuals. He
also provides the Compensation Committee with a performance
assessment for each Named Executive Officer as input to base
salary and incentive award recommendations and provides
financial information relevant to determining the achievement of
our performance objectives and related annual cash incentive
bonuses. In addition, our President and Chief Executive Officer
and our Chief Financial Officer are involved in setting the
financial objectives that, subject to the approval of the Board
and the Compensation Committee, are used as the performance
measures for the annual and long-term incentive plans.
Role of
Compensation Consultant
The Compensation Committee has retained FWC as its independent
compensation consultant to provide executive compensation
services to the Compensation Committee. FWC reports directly to
the Compensation Committee and the Compensation Committee
directly oversees the fees paid for FWCs services. The
Compensation Committee utilizes FWC to review managements
recommendations with the instruction that FWC is to advise the
Compensation Committee independent of management and to provide
such advice for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders.
FWC does not provide any consulting services to the Company
beyond its role as a consultant to the Compensation Committee.
FWC provided the following services to the Compensation
Committee in connection with its review of the Companys
2010 executive compensation programs:
|
|
|
|
|
assisted in the design and development of the 2010 executive
compensation program;
|
|
|
|
provided competitive benchmarking and market data analysis;
|
|
|
|
provided analyses and industry trends relating to the
compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and our other Named
Executive Officers; and,
|
|
|
|
provided updates with regard to emerging trends and best
practices in executive compensation.
|
Peer
Group Compensation Analysis
While our executive team is comprised of long-term employees of
the Company, there has been a significant change in our Named
Executive Officers in the last two years. Mr. Lucia became
our President and Chief Executive Officer in 2009 and in 2010,
Mr. Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin became Named
Executive Officers. As part of the development of the new
executive team, the Compensation Committee used benchmarking as
a tool to set appropriate pay levels; however, the Compensation
Committee may not perform such benchmarking on an annual basis.
In determining 2010 executive compensation, the Compensation
Committee compared our executive compensation against that paid
by a peer group of public companies in the healthcare
information services industry approved by the Compensation
Committee, taking into account the recommendations of FWC. This
peer group, which is periodically reviewed and updated by the
Compensation Committee, consists of companies the Compensation
Committee believes are generally comparable to us in size,
financial profile and scope of operations and against which the
Compensation Committee believes we compete for executive talent.
Companies included in this peer group for purposes of
establishing 2010 compensation levels were: Allscripts-Misys
Healthcare Solutions Inc., AthenaHealth, Inc., Computer
Programs & Systems Inc., Eclipsys Corporation, Emdeon
Inc., Healthways, Inc., MAXIMUS, Inc., MedAssets, Inc., Phase
Forward, Incorporated and Quality Systems, Inc. (collectively,
the 2010 Peer Group). This peer group reflects
(relative to the Companys prior peer group) the removal of
CorVel Corporation and eResearch Technology, Inc. because they
are no longer an appropriate size for inclusion in the peer
group.
44
The chart below compares HMSs revenue, net income and
market capitalization to the median revenue, net income and
market capitalization for our 2010 Peer Group. Note that
although HMSs revenue is below the median, its net income
and market capitalization are above the median.

Components
of our Executive Compensation Program
The primary elements of our executive compensation program are
as follows:
Recognizing Skills/Experience/Responsibilities
Base salary: fixed compensation for performing
day-to-day
responsibilities.
Rewarding Short-Term Performance
Annual short term (cash) incentive compensation: cash
compensation program based on the achievement of short-term
financial goals and other strategic objectives measured over the
current year.
Rewarding Long-Term Performance
Long-Term Incentive Awards: Annual awards, primarily in the form
of equity, that are designed to build executive stock ownership,
retain executives and align compensation with the achievement of
HMSs long-term financial goals of creating shareholder
value and achieving strategic objectives as measured over
multi-year periods.
2010
Executive Compensation
The Compensation Committee does not have a formal or informal
policy or target for allocating compensation between cash and
non-cash compensation, or among the different forms of non-cash
compensation. However, certain components of executive
compensation are paid based on predefined targets established in
connection with a Named Executive Officers employment. For
example, annual short term (cash) incentive compensation is
based on a predetermined financial performance objective and
paid based on a pre-established bonus target percentage. In
allocating compensation between cash and non-cash forms, the
Compensation Committee, after reviewing information provided by
FWC, determines what it believes in its business judgment to be
the appropriate level of each of the various compensation
components with an overall goal of setting total direct
compensation between the median and the 75th percentile for our
2010 Peer Group.
Base
Salary.
Base salary is used to recognize the experience, skills,
knowledge and responsibilities of our employees, including our
Named Executive Officers. In determining the amount of
compensation to be paid to our Named Executive Officers, the
Compensation Committee adheres to long established compensation
policies pursuant to which executive compensation is determined.
Base salary determinants consist of the prevailing rate of
compensation for positions of like responsibility and the level
of the Named Executive Officers compensation in relation
to others with similar responsibilities and tenure. To ensure
both competitiveness and appropriateness of base salaries, we
retain independent compensation consultants on a periodic basis
to update the job classification and pay scale structure
pursuant to which individual Named Executive Officers are
classified and the pay ranges with which their jobs are
associated.
45
Base salaries are reviewed at least annually by our Compensation
Committee and are adjusted from time to time to realign salaries
with market levels after taking into account individual
responsibilities, performance and experience. In 2010, in
recognition of their increased responsibilities and
contributions in light of HMSs significant growth, the
Board designated Mr. Curtin, Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin,
among others, as executive officers. In mid-2010, the
Compensation Committee retained FWC to assist in the evaluation
of the overall compensation packages of our Named Executive
Officers. The compensation analysis was based on a review of the
compensation of our Named Executive Officers to similarly
situated executives in the 2010 Peer Group. Based on this
analysis it was determined that the base salaries for the Named
Executive Officers were generally below the median for the 2010
Peer Group. The Compensation Committee determined that, in light
of (i) the Companys exemplary performance through
July 2010, (ii) the integral role of the Named Executive
Officers in achieving this performance and (iii) the
Boards desire to maintain this core executive group, it
would target base salaries for our Named Executive Officers
between the median and the
75thpercentile
for the 2010 Peer Group for purposes of setting 2010
compensation.
William
C. Lucia, President & Chief Executive
Officer
In February 2010, following a review of Mr. Lucias
performance in his first year as President and Chief Executive
Officer and taking into consideration the Companys past
compensation practices for Chief Executive Officers and the
salaries of Chief Executive Officers in the 2010 Peer Group, the
Compensation Committee approved an increase in
Mr. Lucias annualized base salary from $400,000 to
$525,000, effective March 1, 2010. In making this
determination, the Compensation Committee also considered that
the Company completed two acquisitions in 2009 and increased
revenue and net income by more than 25% over the prior year.
In July 2010, as part of the overall review of compensation
packages for our Named Executive Officers, the Compensation
Committee increased Mr. Lucias base salary from
$525,000 to $650,000, effective August 1, 2010, placing him
within the median and the
75thpercentile
for the 2010 Peer Group
Walter
Hosp, Chief Financial Officer
In July 2010, the Compensation Committee approved an increase in
Mr. Hosps base salary from $325,000 to $425,000. This
was Mr. Hosps first salary increase since he joined
the Company in 2007 and places him at approximately the
75thpercentile
for the 2010 Peer Group.
Sean
Curtin, Executive Vice President, Operations
In July 2010, in connection with his designation as an executive
officer, the Compensation Committee set Mr. Curtins
base salary at $400,000, placing him at the median for his
position for the 2010 Peer Group.
Christina
Dragonetti, Executive Vice President, Commercial
Markets
In July 2010, in connection with her designation as an executive
officer, the Compensation Committee set
Ms. Dragonettis base salary at $400,000, placing her
at the 75th percentile for her position for the 2010 Peer Group.
Maria
Perrin, Executive Vice President, Government Markets
In July 2010, in connection with her designation as an executive
officer, the Compensation Committee set Ms. Perrins
base salary at $400,000, placing her at the median for her
position for the 2010 Peer Group.
Annual
Short Term (Cash) Incentive Compensation.
The Compensation Committee has the authority to award annual
bonuses to our Named Executive Officers in accordance with
specific performance criteria established each year and based on
the extent to which those criteria were achieved. The
Compensation Committee believes that the short term bonus plan
promotes the Companys performance-based compensation
philosophy by providing Named Executive Officers with direct
financial incentives in the form of annual cash bonuses for
achieving specific performance goals. Bonus criteria are
established and bonuses are ultimately awarded, in a manner
intended to reward both overall corporate performance and an
individuals participation in attaining such performance.
Our annual short term incentive bonus is paid in
46
cash, ordinarily in a single installment in the first quarter
following the completion of the fiscal year and is tied to the
achievement of predetermined annual corporate financial and, in
some cases, individual performance objectives. The targeted
amount of annual performance bonus for 2010 was 65% of base
salary for Mr. Lucia and 50% of base salary for
Messrs. Hosp and Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin.
The primary factor that the Compensation Committee considers
when determining short term (cash) incentive compensation for
our Named Executive Officers is a predetermined financial
performance objective. If the Company achieves its financial
performance objective, the Named Executive Officers become
entitled to short term cash incentive compensation. In addition,
upon the Companys achievement of this objective, the
Compensation Committee has the discretion to adjust short term
cash incentive payments based upon its consideration of
individual performance during the course of the year. There is
no maximum on the bonus amount payable to our Named Executive
Officers and the Compensation Committee may increase or decrease
the annual bonus paid based on the attainment of goals relating
to strategic objectives or to account equitably for items
impacting the predetermined performance objectives that are
non-recurring in nature.
The financial objective established for 2010 for
Messrs. Lucia and Hosp was the achievement by the Company
of a specific net income target. The Company uses net income
because it is a primary reporting metric and is based on
generally accepted accounting principles. Net income includes
all income and expense items and all gains and losses, whether
they are considered recurring or non-recurring. As illustrated
in the chart below, the applicable percentage of the bonus
target to be paid varies with the percentage of the
Companys attainment of its net income target. The net
income target for 2010 was $38.1 million.

As illustrated in the chart, upon the achievement of 100% of the
Companys net income target, Messrs. Lucia and Hosp
would be entitled to 100% of their respective bonus targets. The
threshold for payment of any amount under the incentive plan for
2010 was attainment of more than 85% of the Companys net
income target. The achievement of 92.5% of the Companys
net income target would result in payment to Messrs. Lucia
and Hosp of 50% of the bonus target.
Given the roles of Mr. Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and
Perrin as leaders of specific functional areas, the Committee,
upon the advice of Mr. Lucia and FWC, determined that a
more appropriate financial objective for these Named Executive
Officers should include the achievement by the Company of a
specified operating income target. Mr. Curtins annual
(cash) incentive bonus, as the Executive Vice President of
Operations, is based entirely on the Companys achievement
of a specified operating income target. In the case of Mses.
Dragonetti and Perrin, their annual bonus will be determined as
follows: (i) 25% will be based upon the Companys
achievement of a specified operating income target and
(ii) 75% will be based on their departments
achievement of a specified departmental operating income target.
The Companys operating income target for 2010 was
$63.1 million. Ms. Dragonettis
47
department operating income target was $47.2 million and
Ms. Perrins department operating income target was
$67.4 million.

As illustrated in the chart, upon the achievement of 100% of the
Companys operating income target, Mr. Curtin and
Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin would be entitled to 100% of their
respective bonus targets. The threshold for payment of any
amount under the incentive plan for 2010 was attainment of more
than 85% of the Companys operating income target. The
achievement of 92.5% of the Companys operating income
target would result in payment to Mr. Curtin and Mses.
Dragonetti and Perrin of 50% of the bonus target.
Specific individual goals are not set for each Named Executive
Officer; rather, following completion of the fiscal year, the
Compensation Committee assesses each Named Executive
Officers overall contributions to helping the Company
achieve its financial objective by (i) improving revenue,
net income, cash flow, operating margins, earnings per share and
return on shareholders equity, (ii) developing
competitive advantages, (iii) dealing effectively with the
growing complexity of our business, (iv) developing
business strategies, managing costs and improving the quality of
our services as well as customer satisfaction,
(v) successfully executing divestitures, acquisitions and
strategic partnerships, (vi) implementing operating
efficiencies and (vii) general performance of individual
job responsibilities. However, with the exception of awarding
Mr. Curtin a one-time discretionary bonus for 2010, the
Compensation Committee did not adjust bonuses for 2010 based on
performance.
In February 2011, the Compensation Committee approved the cash
bonus amounts to be paid to Messrs. Lucia and Hosp for
services performed in 2010 based on the Companys net
income for 2010 of $40.5 million, which was 6.5% over the
targeted net income amount for 2010. The bonus amounts awarded
to Messrs. Hosp and Lucia were 32.6% above their 2010 bonus
target, or $497,632 and $243,219, respectively.
The Compensation Committee also approved the 2010 cash bonus
amounts to be paid to Mr. Curtin based on the
Companys operating income for 2010 of $67.5 million,
which was 7.1% over the targeted operating income amount for
2010. The bonus amount awarded to Mr. Curtin was 35.5%
above his 2010 bonus target, or $231,537. In addition, the
Compensation Committee awarded Mr. Curtin a one-time
discretionary bonus of $37,500 in recognition of his key role in
leading the integration of the four companies that we acquired
since September 2009.
Ms. Dragonettis departments operating income
for 2010 was 3.3% over the targeted operating income amount for
2010 for her department. Based on these results and the
Companys achievement of its operating income target, the
Compensation Committee awarded Ms. Dragonetti a bonus of
$183,045, which was 17.1% above her 2010 bonus target.
Ms. Perrins departments operating income for
2010 was 11.9% over the targeted operating income amount for
2010 for her department. Based on these results and the
Companys achievement of its operating income target, the
Compensation Committee awarded Ms. Perrin a bonus of
$236,827, which was 38.6% above her 2010 bonus target.
Long Term
Incentive Compensation.
The longer-term component of our executive compensation program
has generally consisted of stock options and in 2009 was
expanded to include restricted stock awards. We believe that
equity grants provide our Named Executive Officers with a strong
link to our long-term performance, create an ownership culture
and help to align their interests with those of our shareholders.
48
Typically, during the fourth quarter of each year, the dates for
the upcoming years meetings of the Compensation Committee
are scheduled. The award determination takes place at the
regularly scheduled meeting of the Compensation Committee held
following the second quarter of each year. Equity awards are
typically granted to our executives annually on October 1.
Equity awards are granted upon the recommendation of management
and approval of the Compensation Committee based upon its
subjective evaluation of the appropriate grant depending upon
the level of responsibility of each Named Executive Officer. In
accordance with our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Plan
(the 2006 Plan), we set the exercise price of all
stock options equal to the closing price of our common stock on
the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the day of the grant. Stock
options generally become exercisable in installments over the
period specified by the Compensation Committee. Accordingly, a
stock option grant will provide a return to the executive
officer only if the executive officer remains employed during
the vesting period and then only if the market price of our
common stock appreciates from the options exercise price.
As a result, stock options strongly support our objective of
ensuring that pay is aligned with changes in shareholder value.
We have granted restricted stock to support the goal of
retaining key Named Executive Officers. Restricted stock is
issued to executives at par value ($0.01 per share) and
generally vests in installments over the period specified by the
Compensation Committee. Accordingly, a restricted stock grant
will provide a return to the executive officer only if the
executive officer remains employed during the vesting period.
The value of the restricted stock to the executive increases as
the market price of our common stock increases, but because no
specific amount of market price appreciation is necessary for a
return to be provided to the executive, the number of shares
underlying a restricted stock grant is lower relative to the
number of shares underlying a stock option grant.
For the 2010 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee considered
the individual contributions of the Named Executive Officers
discussed above under Annual Short Term (Cash) Incentive
Compensation in making its determinations with respect to
granting long term incentives, in addition to several more
objective factors, including comparative share ownership of
similarly-situated executives, the Companys financial
performance, the amount of equity previously awarded, the
vesting of such awards, the retention value of the award and
FWCs recommendations. In determining amounts of long term
incentive compensation to be awarded, no fixed or specific
mathematical weighting was applied to the subjective or the
objective assessment of the Named Executive Officers
individual achievements.
In September 2010, the Board approved the grant, on
October 1, 2010, of non-qualified stock options to our
executives. These stock options are exercisable over seven years
and contain a performance vesting component. The performance
vesting component ensures that stock option compensation is also
tied to the achievement of multi-year performance objectives.
The stock options vest as follows: 50% of the grant vests in
one-third increments on December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013
and the remaining 50% cliff vests on December 31, 2013 to
the extent that pre-defined earnings per share (EPS) growth and
service conditions are satisfied. In order for a Named Executive
Officer to vest 100% of his stock option grant, (i) he must
be an employee of the Company on December 31, 2013 and
(ii) the Companys EPS for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2011 must be at least 15% higher than its EPS
for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010 and its EPS
for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012 must be at
least 40% higher than its EPS for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2010. In October 2010, the Compensation
Committee granted Messrs. Lucia stock options to purchase
20,000 shares of our common stock and Messrs. Hosp and
Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin stock options to
purchase 16,000 shares of our common stock. The exercise
price for these stock options was $59.32 per share and the
vesting schedule was as described above.
In connection with its executive compensation review in July
2010, the Compensation Committee recommended that the Board
approve a retention grant in February 2011 of restricted stock
units to each of the Named Executive Officers. In February 2011,
the Board approved the grant of restricted stock units with an
aggregate value of $4.95 million. An aggregate of 66,962
restricted stock units were granted to our Named Executive
Officers on February 18, 2011, based on the closing price
of our common stock of $73.92 on the NASDAQ Global Select Market
on that date. The restricted stock units vest in 25% increments,
with the first 25% vesting on the second anniversary of the
grant date and the remainder vesting ratably on the third,
fourth and fifth anniversaries of the grant date.
Benefits
and Other Compensation.
We maintain broad-based benefits that are provided to all
employees, including health and dental insurance, life and
disability insurance and a 401(k) plan. Our Named Executive
Officers are eligible to participate in all of our
49
employee benefit plans, in each case on the same basis as other
employees. The Company matches 100% of participant contributions
to our 401(k) plan up to 3% and 50% of the next 2% of their
eligible compensation contributed to the 401(k) plan, up to a
maximum of $9,800 per annum.
Severance
and
Change-in-Control
Benefits.
Pursuant to employment agreements we have entered into with our
Named Executive Officers and under the terms of our 2006 Plan,
our Named Executive Officers are entitled to certain benefits in
the event of the termination of their employment under specified
circumstances, including termination following a change in
control of our Company. We have provided detailed information
about these benefits, along with estimates of their value under
various circumstances, under the caption Potential
Payments upon Termination of Employment or
Change-in-Control
below.
We believe providing these benefits helps us compete for
executive talent, promote stability and continuity of senior
management and provide reasonable assurance so that they are not
distracted from their duties during the uncertainty that may
accompany a possible change in control.
Tax
Considerations
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code prohibits us
from deducting any compensation in excess of $1 million
paid to our Chief Executive Officer and the three other most
highly compensated Named Executive Officers employed at the end
of the year (other than our Chief Financial Officer), except to
the extent that such compensation is paid pursuant to a
shareholder approved plan upon the attainment of specified
performance objectives. The Compensation Committee believes that
tax deductibility is an important factor, but not the sole
factor, to be considered in setting executive compensation
policy. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee periodically
reviews the potential consequences of Section 162(m) and
generally intends to take such reasonable steps as are required
to avoid the loss of a tax deduction due to Section 162(m).
However, the Compensation Committee may, in its judgment,
authorize compensation payments that do not comply with the
exemptions in Section 162(m) when it believes that such
payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.
Summary
Compensation Table
The following table sets forth the cash and non-cash

In October 2010,
Messrs. Lucia, Hosp and Curtin and Mses. Dragonetti and
Perrin were each granted non-qualified stock options to purchase
shares of our common stock at a purchase price per share of
$59.32. Mr. Lucia was granted 20,000 non-qualified stock
options and the other Named Executive Officers were each granted
16,000 non-qualified stock options. The amounts in this column
represent the grant date fair value of the
service/performance-based option grants computed in accordance
with FASB guidance on stock-based compensation, assuming all
service and performance conditions are met. The relevant
assumptions made in the valuations may be found in Note 10
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The grant
date fair value of service/performance-based stock options is
determined based on the number of shares granted and the fair
value of our common stock on the grant date, which is the
closing sales price per share of our common stock reported on
The NASDAQ Global Select Market on that date.
|

|
|
Mr. Lucia became our Chief
Executive Officer effective March 1, 2009. Prior to that
date, Mr. Lucia served as our President and Chief Operating
Officer.

|
|
In February 2009,
Messrs. Lucia and Hosp were granted 31,980 and
25,584 shares of restricted stock, respectively. Subject to
Messrs. Lucias and Hosps continued employment
with the Company, these restricted stock awards will vest in 25%
increments in February 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. The amounts in
this column represent the grant date fair value of the
service-based restricted stock award computed in accordance with
FASB guidance on stock-based compensation, assuming all service
conditions are met. The relevant assumptions made in the
valuations may be found in Note 11 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2009 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
The grant date fair value of service-based restricted stock is
determined based on the number of shares granted and the fair
value of our common stock on the grant date, which is the
closing sales price per share of our common stock reported on
The NASDAQ Global Select Market on that date, less the
consideration paid by the recipient for the award. Under our
2006 Plan, restricted stock award recipients pay us the par
value for the stock ($0.01 per share).

In October 2009, Messrs. Lucia
and Hosp were granted non-qualified stock options to purchase
shares of our common stock at an exercise price per share of
$37.82. Mr. Lucia was granted 20,000 non-qualified stock
options and Mr. Hosp was granted 16,000 non-qualified stock
options. The amounts in this column represent the grant date
fair value of the service/performance-based option grants
computed in accordance with FASB guidance on stock-based

Amounts represent the threshold and
target that could be earned by the Named Executive Officers. The
threshold amount shown is 5% of the individuals bonus
target amount, which would be payable if the Company achieved
86% of the applicable targeted financial measure for 2010. The
target amount shown is 100% of the individual bonus target
amount. Actual incentives paid for 2010 are shown in the Summary
Compensation Table in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan
Compensation column. Our short-term (cash) incentive plan
is described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, under
the heading Annual Short Term (Cash) Incentive
Compensation. Mr. Lucias bonus target for 2010
was 65% of base salary and the bonus target for our other Named
Executive Officers was 50% of base salary. Mr. Lucias
bonus target is higher than that of the other Named Executive
Officers due to his overall responsibility for the operations
and success of the Company. There is no maximum on the bonus
amount payable to our Named Executive Officers.

for these grants are described in the Narrative Discussion to
the Summary Compensation Table.

Option Exercises
The following table sets forth certain information concerning
the exercise of stock options by our Named Executive Officers.
Although certain of our Named Executive Officers have received
service-based restricted stock awards, as of December 31,
2010 none of those awards had commenced vesting; hence, the
table below does not include information relating to those
restricted stock awards.

Potential
Payments Upon Termination of Employment or Change in
Control
The following information and table set forth the additional
amounts payable to each of our Named Executive Officers in the
event of a termination of employment as a result of involuntary
termination, resignation for Good Reason (as defined below),
resignation for Good Reason upon a Change in Control (as defined
below) and involuntary termination following a Change in Control.
On March 1, 2011, we entered into a new employment
agreement with Mr. Lucia; therefore, the following table
presents the amounts payable to Mr. Lucia under the terms
of his new agreement, rather than his prior agreement, which
expired on February 28, 2011.
Assumptions
and General Principles
The following assumptions and general principles apply with
respect to the following table and any termination of employment
of a Named Executive Officer:
|
|
|
|
|
The amounts shown in the table assume that each Named Executive
Officer was terminated on December 31, 2010. Accordingly,
the table reflects amounts earned as of December 31, 2010
and includes estimates of amounts that would be paid to the
Named Executive Officer upon the occurrence of a termination or
change in control. The actual amounts to be paid to a Named
Executive Officer can only be determined at the time of the
termination or change in control.
|
|
|
|
Regardless of the manner in which the Named Executive
Officers employment is terminated, a Named Executive
Officer is entitled to receive (i) any earned but unpaid
salary and accrued but unused paid time off through the date of
termination and (ii) in general, any earned but unpaid
bonus for the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which
his/her
employment ends. Amounts due for unused paid time off for 2010
are not shown in the table.
|
|
|
|
Under the terms of our 2006 Plan, upon a Named Executive
Officers termination of employment (for any reason other
than gross misconduct), stock option exercises shall be limited
to the stock options that were
|
54
|
|
|
|
|
immediately exercisable at the date of such termination. The
amounts shown in the table do not include the value of such
immediately exercisable stock options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Under the terms of our Restricted Stock Award Agreements, upon a
Named Executive Officers termination of employment for any
reason other than as a result of
his/her
death, disability or involuntarily by the Company (i) for
cause or (ii) for cause within
24 months following a Change in Control, the unvested
shares underlying
his/her
restricted stock award shall be forfeited effective as of
his/her
termination date. As of December 31, 2010, none of the
restricted stock awards granted to our Named Executive Officers
had commenced vesting.
|
|
|
|
Under the terms of our Restricted Stock Unit Agreements, upon a
Named Executive Officers termination of employment for any
reason other than as a result of
his/her
death, disability or involuntarily by the Company without
cause within 24 months following a Change in
Control, any restricted stock units which are not then vested
shall be forfeited effective as of
his/her
termination date. If the Named Executive Officer ceases to be
employed by the Corporation by reason of
his/her
retirement, the restricted stock units shall continue to vest as
if the Named Executive Officer had continued to be employed
until the expiration of two years after
his/her
retirement.
|
|
|
|
The amounts in the table assume that each of the Named Executive
Officers would have been entitled to receive
his/her
target annual bonus payment for 2010 and not the amount that the
Compensation Committee determined to pay based upon the level of
attainment of the Company performance objectives. Therefore, the
bonus payment amount set forth in the table is the target bonus
for each Named Executive Officer, not the amount that was
actually paid and shown as Non-Equity Incentive Plan
Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table.
|
|
|
|
Under our Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit and
Stock Option Agreements, cause means a termination
with cause under the terms of the Named Executive
Officers employment agreement. If there is no such
employment agreement in effect, a termination with
cause as determined by the Board, shall mean a
termination on account of deliberate gross misconduct or the
violation, after any such termination, of the terms of a
Restrictive Covenant and Confidentiality/Non-Disclosure
Agreement with the Company.
|
|
|
|
Under the terms of the 2006 Plan, a Change of
Control shall mean the occurrence of any of the following
events: (i) at least a majority of the Board shall cease to
consist of directors of the Company who served in such capacity
at the time the 2006 Plan was adopted or during each subsequent
renewal term or were approved by a then majority of continuing
directors for addition to Board; (ii) any

If we terminate
Mr. Lucias employment without Cause or if his
employment ceases because of his death or disability or if he
terminates his employment with Good Reason, then provided
Mr. Lucia executes a separation agreement and release and
complies with certain restrictive
|
57
|
|
|
|
|
covenants (as described below) and
confidentiality provisions contained in his employment
agreement, he will be entitled to receive cash severance in an
amount equal to (i) 24 times his monthly base salary paid
ratably in equal installments over a 24 month period,
(ii) twice a bonus component that will vary depending upon
whether the bonus for the year of termination is intended to be
performance-based compensation and the performance
is satisfied, in which case it will be paid when bonuses are
paid to the Companys executive officers, or whether the
bonus is under a different program, in which case it will be his
target bonus and will be paid on the same schedule as
(i) above, and (iii) continued health coverage for
24 months or until he becomes eligible for health coverage
from another employer, whichever is earlier. For the
24 months following Mr. Lucias termination, he
is prohibited from: (i) directly or indirectly engaging in
competition with or owning any interest in, performing any
services for, participating in, or being connected with any
business that is competitive with the business of the Company
and its subsidiaries, (ii) directly or indirectly inducing
or attempting to induce any employee of the Company or its
subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company and
(iii) directly or indirectly hiring, engaging or working
with any supplier, contractor or other business relation of the
Company or its subsidiaries if such action would be known by him
to have a material adverse effect on the Companys business
or materially interfere with the Companys relationship
with that person/entity.

If within 24 months following
a Change in Control, Mr. Lucias employment is
terminated without Cause or he resigns for Good reason, provided
he executes a separation agreement and release and complies with
certain restrictive covenants and confidentiality provisions
contained in his employment agreement (as described above), he
will receive the amounts set forth in (1)(i) and (1)(ii) above
in a single lump sum payment, rather than in installments as
applies outside of a Change in Control.

Under the terms of our Restricted
Stock Agreements, in the event a Named Executive Officer ceases
to be employed by the Company by reason of death, disability or
involuntarily by the Company (other than (i) for
cause and (ii) for cause within
24 months of a Change of Control), the restricted stock
awards held by such Named Executive Officer shall vest in full.
In addition, the Compensation Committee has the discretion to
accelerate vesting of the restricted stock in the event of a
Change of Control. Under the terms of our Restricted Stock Unit
Agreements, in the event a Named Executive Officer ceases to be
employed by the Company by reason of death, disability or
involuntarily by the Company other than for cause
within 24 months following a Change in Control, all of the
restricted stock units held by such Named Executive Officer
shall become fully vested. The amounts presented in the table
represent the market value of outstanding restricted stock
awards and restricted stock units, which is determined based on
the number of shares/units granted and the fair value of our
common stock on December 31, 2010, which is the closing
sales price per share of our common stock reported on The NASDAQ
Global Select Market on that date ($64.77), less the
consideration paid by the recipient for the award ($0.01 per
share).

Under the 2006 Plan (assuming no
contrary provisions in the award agreements/the 2006 Plan), if a
Named Executive Officer ceases to be employed by the Company by
reason of involuntary termination without cause by
the Company during the
24-month
period following a Change of Control, the Named Executive
Officers outstanding options, which are not then
exercisable and vested, shall become fully vested and
exercisable. The numbers included in the table represent the
value of the unvested portion of the Named Executive
Officers stock options, assuming accelerated vesting
(calculated based on the excess of the closing market price of
our common stock on December 31, 2010, over the exercise
prices of such options).

Executive
Employment Agreements
See Potential Payments Upon Termination of Employment
or Change in Control above for definitions of
capitalized terms used below.
William
C. Lucia President and Chief Executive
Officer
On March 1, 2011, we entered into a new employment
agreement with Mr. Lucia. Unless earlier terminated, this
agreement will terminate on February 28, 2013. In August
2010, Mr. Lucias annualized base salary was increased
from $525,000 to $650,000. Mr. Lucia is eligible to receive
bonus compensation from us in respect of each fiscal year (or
portion thereof) during the term of his employment, in each case
as may be determined by our Compensation Committee in its sole
discretion on the basis of performance or such other criteria as
may be established from time to time by the Compensation
Committee in its sole discretion. Mr. Lucias target
bonus is 65% of his base salary.
If we terminate Mr. Lucias employment without Cause,
in connection with a Change in Control or otherwise, or if his
employment ceases because of his death or disability or if he
terminates his employment with Good Reason, then provided
Mr. Lucia executes and does not revoke a separation
agreement and release and complies with certain
58
restrictive covenants (as described above) and confidentiality
provisions contained in his employment agreement, he will be
entitled to receive cash severance in an amount equal to
(i) 24 times his monthly base salary paid ratably in equal
installments over a 24 month period, (ii) twice a
bonus component that will vary depending upon whether the bonus
for the year of termination is intended to be
performance-based compensation and the performance
is satisfied or whether the bonus is under a different program,
in which case it will be his target bonus and will be paid on
the same schedule as (i) above, and (iii) continued
health coverage for 24 months or until he becomes eligible
for health coverage from another employer, whichever is earlier.
Walter D.

annualized base salary was increased from $325,000 to $425,000.
Mr. Hosp is also eligible to receive an annual performance
bonus, which depends on our performance and his individual
performance, in each case as determined by our Compensation
Committee. In February 2010, the Compensation Committee

salary.
In the event Mr. Hosp is involuntarily terminated or

objectives and the Company exceeds its fiscal year performance
targets. Mr. Curtins target bonus is 50% of his base
salary.
In the event Mr. Curtin is involuntarily terminated and he
executes and does not revoke a severance agreement and release,
he will be entitled to receive his base salary for
12 months from the date of termination and the Company

Director
Compensation
General
A director who is one of our employees receives no additional
cash compensation for his or her services as a director or as a
member of a committee of our Board of Directors. A director who
is not one of our employees (a
59
non-employee director) receives cash compensation for his or her
services as described below. All cash compensation, unless
deferred, is paid at the end of each quarter. All of our
directors are reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in
connection with attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors
or its committees. In July 2010, our Board of Directors, with
the guidance of F.W. Cook, compensation consultants, reviewed
the compensation paid to directors for Board and committee
service and adopted a new compensation program which became
effective for the third quarter of 2010.
Non-Employee
Board Member Retainer
Each non-employee director receives a quarterly retainer for
service as a director, which is fixed from time to time by
resolution of the Board. The quarterly retainer is currently
$8,750 per quarter, or $35,000 annually. The quarterly retainer
was not increased for 2010.
Committee
Chair Retainer
Through the second quarter of 2010, the Audit Committee Chair,
Ms. Rudnick, received a quarterly retainer of $1,250. In
July 2010, the Board increased the Audit Committee Chair
quarterly retainer to $2,500, or $10,000 annually, effective for
the third quarter of 2010.
In addition, in July 2010, the Board approved a quarterly
retainer of $2,500, or $10,000 annually, for each of our other
Committee Chairs. This retainer became effective for the third
quarter of 2010.
Stock
Option Grants
Each of our non-employee directors is eligible to receive an
annual award of stock options, the value of which is fixed from
time to time by resolution of the Board. In July 2010, the Board
approved the 2010 grant to each of our non-employee directors
and to Mr. Holster of non-qualified stock options and
restricted stock units (on an equal number of units
basis) with an aggregate value of $80,000, with the actual
number of stock options and restricted stock units to be
calculated based on the grant date fair value computed in
accordance with FASB guidance on stock-based compensation,
except that no assumption for forfeitures would be included. On
October 1, 2010, each of our non-employee directors and
Mr. Holster, was granted a stock option to purchase
933 shares of our common stock and 933 restricted stock
units. Both of these grants vest quarterly over a one year
period, with the first quarterly vest on December 31, 2010.
Non-Employee
Chairman of the Board Quarterly Retainer
In July 2010, the Board approved the following compensation
package for a non-employee Chairman of the Board:
(i) annual cash retainer of $41,000 and (ii) equity
compensation consisting of a grant of non-qualified stock
options and restricted stock units (on an equal number of
units basis) with an aggregate value of $94,000, which
would be granted on October 1 of each year and which would vest
quarterly over a one year period commencing on the date of
grant. The actual number of stock options and restricted stock
units to be calculated based on the grant date fair value
computed in accordance with FASB guidance on stock-based
compensation, except that no assumption for forfeitures would be
included.
Director
Deferred Compensation Plan
Each of our non-employee directors is eligible to participate in
our Director Deferred Compensation Plan, under which the
non-employee director may elect to defer all or part of his or
her Board of Director fees and annual restricted stock unit
grants until the termination of his or her service as a member
of the Board for any reason. The amount of any cash compensation
deferred by a non-employee director is converted into a number
of stock units, determined based upon the closing price of our
common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the date such
fees would otherwise have been payable and is credited to a
deferred compensation account maintained in his or her name.
Deferred restricted stock unit grants are converted on a
share-for-share
basis on the date such restricted stock units would otherwise
have been payable and also credited to the non-employee
directors account. The account will be credited with
additional stock units, also based on such average market value,
upon the payment date for any dividends declared on our common
stock. Upon a directors termination of service on our
Board, the
60
amounts accumulated in the deferred compensation account will be

Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
The following table sets forth information known to us with
respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of
February 18, 2011 by (i) each of our non-employee
directors, (ii) Messrs. Lucia, Hosp and Curtin and
Mses. Dragonetti and Perrin, whom we refer to as our Named
Executive Officers, (iii) all of our directors and current
executive officers as a group and (iv) each person (or
group of affiliated persons) known by us to be the beneficial
owner of more than 5% of our common stock.
Beneficial ownership and percentage ownership are determined in
accordance with the rules of the SEC. This information does not
necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose.
Under the SEC rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as
to which an entity or individual has sole or shared voting power
or investment power and also any shares that the entity or
individual has the right to acquire as of April 19, 2011
(60 days after February 18, 2011) through the
exercise of stock options. Beneficial ownership includes all
shares of restricted stock held by an entity or individual,
whether or not vested, but excludes options or other rights
vesting after April 19, 2011.
Percentage of beneficial ownership is based on
27,928,563 shares of common stock outstanding as of
February 18, 2011. For each individual and group included
in the table below, percentage ownership is calculated by
dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by such entity
or individual by the sum of the shares of common stock
outstanding on February 18, 2011 and the number of shares
of common stock that such entity or individual had the right to
acquire as of April 19, 2011.
Unless otherwise indicated and subject to applicable community
property laws, to our knowledge, each shareholder named in the
following table possesses sole voting and investment power over
the shares listed, except
63
for those jointly owned with that persons spouse. Unless
otherwise noted below, the address of each person listed on the
table is
c/o HMS
Holdings Corp., 401 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10016.

and sole power to vote or to direct the voting of
4,400 shares of our common stock owned by the institutional
accounts or funds advised by PGALLC as reported above. FIL
Limited, or FIL, with its principal address at Pembroke Hall, 42
Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda and various foreign-based
subsidiaries provide investment advisory and management services
to a number of
non-U.S.
investment companies and certain institutional investors. FIL
which is a qualified institution under
section 240.13d-1(b)(1)
(ii), is the beneficial owner of 34,900 shares of our
common stock. Partnerships controlled predominantly by members
of the family of Edward C. Johnson 3d, Chairman of FMR LLC and
FIL, or trusts for their benefit, own shares of FIL voting stock
with the right to cast approximately 39% of the total votes
which may be cast by all holders of FIL voting stock. FMR LLC
and FIL are separate and independent corporate entities and
their Boards of Directors are generally composed of different
individuals. FMR LLC and FIL are of the view that they are not
acting as a group for purposes of Section 13(d)
under the Exchange Act and that they are not otherwise required
to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership
of securities beneficially owned by the other
corporation within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act. Therefore, they are of the
view that the shares held by the other corporation need not be
aggregated for purposes of Section 13(d). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, FMR LLC filed the Schedule 13G on a
voluntary basis as if all of the shares are beneficially owned
by FMR LLC and FIL on a joint basis.

Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions and Director
Independence.

William S. Mosakowski, a member of our Board of Directors, is
the President, Chief Executive Officer, controlling stockholder
and a member of the Board of Directors of PCG. Since the
acquisition of BSPA in 2006, we have entered into subcontractor
agreements with PCG, pursuant to which we provide cost
containment services. For the year ended December 31, 2010,
we recognized $0.1 million as revenue under subcontractor
agreements with PCG and had $2.4 million in outstanding
accounts receivable related to these subcontractor agreements.
In addition, as part of the acquisition of BSPA in 2006, we
entered into an office sublease agreement with PCG that expired
in January 2010. For the years ended December 31, 2010,
2009, 2008, we recognized $5,500, $110,000 and $110,000,
respectively, as expense under the sublease agreement with PCG.
In connection with the BSPA acquisition, we entered into an
Intercompany Services Agreement (ISA) with PCG to allow each
party to perform services for the other, such as information
technology support and contractual transition services. Services
performed under the ISA are billed at pre-determined rates
specified in the ISA. For the year ended December 31, 2010
services rendered by PCG under the ISA were valued at
approximately $360,000 and our services rendered to PCG were
valued at approximately $112,000.
Since the BSPA acquisition, amounts collected by or paid on our
behalf by PCG are reimbursed to PCG at cost. At
December 31, 2010 we owed $0.1 million to PCG.

One of our former directors, Galen D. Powers, was a senior
partner in the law firm Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville
PC, which we began using in 1984. For the year ended
December 31, 2010 we incurred $0.2 million in legal
fees for services rendered to us by Powers Pyles
Sutters & Verville.
The Audit Committee has reviewed and approved these transactions.
Board
Determination of Independence
Under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.
Marketplace Rules (the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules), a
director will only qualify as an independent
director if, in the opinion of our Board of Directors,
that person does not have a relationship which would interfere
with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the
responsibilities of a director.
Based on its review of the applicable independence standards and
answers to annual questionnaires completed by the directors, our
Board of Directors has determined that each of Ms. Rudnick,
Dr. Stocker and Messrs. Kelly, Miller, Schwartz and
Stowe is an independent director as defined under
the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. At the time they ceased to serve
on our Board of Directors, Messrs. Powers & Neal
were independent directors as defined under the
NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.
The Board of Directors has the following standing committees:
Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Compliance Committee
and Nominating Committee, each of which consists of independent
director, as defined under the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
HMS Holdings Corp.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
HMS Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders equity and
comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 2010. In connection
with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we
also have audited financial statement schedule II. These
consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Companys
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of HMS Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in
our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
Companys internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in
Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO), and our report dated March 1, 2011 expressed an
unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys
internal control over financial reporting.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
HMS Holdings Corp.:
We have audited HMS Holdings Corps internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on
criteria established in Internal Control Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission (COSO). HMS Holdings Corp. management is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over
financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness
of internal control over financial reporting, included in the
accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control over
Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Companys internal control over financial reporting
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material
respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk
that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on
the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A companys
internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
companys assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, HMS Holdings Corp. maintained, in all
material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria
established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO).
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated balance sheets of HMS Holdings Corp. as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders equity and
comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 2010, and our report
dated March 1, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion on
those consolidated financial statements.

Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
|
|
(a)
|
Organization
and Business
|
We were incorporated on October 2, 2002 in the state of New
York. On March 3, 2003, we adopted a holding company
structure and assumed the business of our predecessor, Health
Management Systems, Inc. In connection with the adoption of this
structure, Health Management Systems, which began doing business
in 1974, became our wholly owned subsidiary. Unless the context
otherwise indicates, references in these Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements to the terms HMS,
we, our, and us refer to HMS
Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries.
We provide a variety of cost containment, coordination of
benefits and program integrity services for government and
private healthcare payors and sponsors. These services are
designed to help our clients recover amounts due from liable
third parties, save dollars, reduce fraud, waste and abuse and
ensure regulatory compliance. In September 2008, we purchased
the assets and liabilities of Prudent Rx, expanding our
portfolio of program integrity service offerings for government
healthcare programs and managed care organizations, particularly
in the pharmacy arena. In September 2009, we further expanded
our portfolio of program integrity service offerings for
government healthcare programs, particularly in the Medicare and
Medicaid programs with our acquisition of IntegriGuard LLC, or
IntegriGuard. In December 2009, with the acquisition of Verify
Solutions,Inc., or Verify Solutions, we moved into the
employer-based market with valuable new services that ensure
that dependents covered by employees are eligible to receive
healthcare benefits. In June 2010, we acquired Allied Management
Group Special Investigation Unit, or AMG-SIU, which
provides fraud, waste and abuse prevention and detection
solutions for healthcare payors. In August 2010, we acquired
Chapman Kelly, Inc., or Chapman Kelly which provides claims
audit and beneficiary eligibility audit services to employers
and managed care organizations.
We are managed and operate as one business, with a single
management team that reports to the Chief Executive Officer. We
do not operate separate lines of business with respect to any of
our product lines.
|
|
(b)
|
Principles
of Consolidation
|
The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and
transactions and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in
conformity with United States generally accepted accounting
principles, or U.S. GAAP, requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reported period. Our actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to
conform to the current presentation.
|
|
(e)
|
Cash and
Cash Equivalents
|
For purposes of financial reporting, all highly liquid
investments purchased with an original maturity of three months
or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents
consist of deposits that are readily convertible into cash.

STATEMENTS (Continued)

(f)
|
Depreciation
and Amortization of Property and Equipment
|
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is
provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets utilizing
the straight-line method. We provide amortization of leasehold
improvements on a straight-line basis over the shorter of a five
year period or the term of the related lease. The estimated
useful lives are as follows:
|
|
|
Equipment
|
|
2-3 years
|
Leasehold improvements
|
|
3-5 years
|
Furniture and fixtures
|
|
5 years
|
Building and building improvements
|
|
up to 39.5 years
|
|
|
(g)
|
Software
and Software Development Cost
|
Certain software development costs related to software that is
developed for internal use while in the application development
stage are capitalized. All other costs to develop software for
internal use, either in the preliminary project stage or post
implementation stage, are expensed as incurred. Amortization of
software and software development costs is calculated on a
straight-line basis over the expected economic life of the
product, generally estimated to be between 3-5 years.
Goodwill, representing the excess of acquisition costs over the
fair value of assets and liabilities of acquired businesses, is
not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually.
Fair value is based on a projection of the estimated discounted
future net cash flows expected to be achieved from a reporting
unit using a discount rate reflective of our cost of funds. The
fair value of the reporting unit is compared with the
assets recorded value. If the recorded value is less than
the fair value of the reporting unit, no impairment is
indicated. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than
the recorded value, an impairment charge is recognized for the
difference between the carrying value and the fair value. We
perform our annual goodwill impairment testing in the second
quarter of each year. No impairment losses have been recorded in
any of the periods presented.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable, commonly referred to as a
triggering event. Recoverability of assets to be held and used
is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of its asset
group to the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows
expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are
considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset
group exceeds the fair value of the assets, which amount is
charged to earnings. Fair value is based on a projection of the
estimated discounted future net cash flows expected to result
from the asset group, using a discount rate reflective of our
cost of funds. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the
lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the cost to
sell.
The purchase method of accounting requires companies to assign
values to assets and liabilities acquired based upon their fair
value. In most instances there is not a readily defined or
listed market price for individual assets and liabilities
acquired in connection with a business, including intangible
assets. The determination of fair value for individual assets
and liabilities in many instances requires a high degree of
estimation. The valuation of intangible assets, in particular,
is very subjective. The use of different valuation techniques
and assumptions could change the amounts and useful lives
assigned to the assets and liabilities acquired, including
goodwill and other intangible assets and related amortization
expense.
77
HMS
HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases. This method also requires the
recognition of future tax benefits for net operating loss (NOL)
carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in
the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation
allowance is provided against deferred tax assets to the extent
their realization is not more likely than not.
Uncertain income tax positions are accounted for by prescribing
a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required
to meet before being recognized in the financial statements.
Basic income per share is calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares and
dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period.
Our common share equivalents consist of stock options and
restricted stock awards and units.
The following table reconciles the basic to diluted weighted
average shares outstanding (shares in thousands):

For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
65,141, 91,419 and 758,190 stock options, respectively, were not
included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because
the effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the year ended
December 31, 2010 restricted stock units representing
8,834 shares of common stock were not included in the
diluted earnings per share calculation because the effect would
have been anti-dilutive.
A majority of our contracts are contingency fee based. We
recognize revenue on contingency fee based contracts when third
party payors remit payment to our clients and, consequently, the
contingency is deemed to have been satisfied. For certain
contracts, this may result in revenue being recognized in
irregular increments. We recognize revenue on our general
service agreements as work is performed and amounts are earned.
We consider amounts to be earned once evidence of an arrangement
has been obtained, services are delivered, fees are fixed or
determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Our
contracts with the federal government generally are cost-plus or
time and material based. Revenue on cost-plus contracts is
recognized based on costs incurred plus an estimate of the
negotiated fee earned. Revenue on time and materials contracts
is recognized based on hours worked and expenses incurred.
Where contracts have multiple deliverables, we evaluate these
deliverables at the inception of each contract and as each item
is delivered. As part of this evaluation, we consider whether
(i) a delivered item has value to a client on a stand-alone
basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the
fair market value of the undelivered items; and
(iii) whether the delivery of the undelivered items is
considered probable and substantially within our control, if a
general right of return exists. Where deliverables, or groups of
deliverables, have all three of these characteristics,
78
HMS
HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
we treat each deliverable item as a separate unit of accounting
and apply the relevant revenue recognition guidance to each
deliverable. Arrangements including implementation and
transaction related revenue are accounted for as a single unit
of accounting. Since implementation services do not carry a
standalone value, the revenue relating to these services is
recognized over the term of the client contract to which it
relates.
|
|
(n)
|
Stock-Based
Compensation
|
The cost of stock-based compensation is recognized in our
Consolidated Statements of Income based on the fair value of all
awards granted using the Black-Scholes method of valuation. The
fair value of each award is determined and the compensation cost
is recognized over the service period required to obtain full
vesting. Compensation cost to be recognized reflects an estimate
of the number of awards expected to vest after taking into
consideration an estimate of award forfeitures based on actual
experience. The cash flows resulting from tax benefits
recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) are
classified as financing cash flows.
|
|
(o)
|
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
|
The fair values of our financial instruments reflect the amounts
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date (exit price). In addition, FASB
authoritative guidance requires us to disclose the fair value of
financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized
and not recognized in the statement of financial position, for
which it is practicable to estimate fair value.
The carrying amounts for our cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expense approximate
fair value due to their short-term nature.
We account for our lease agreements at their inception as either
operating or capital leases, depending on certain defined
criteria. We recognize lease costs on a straight-line basis
without regard to deferred payment terms, such as rent holidays,
that defer the commencement date of required payments.
Additionally, incentives we receive, such as tenant improvement
allowances, are capitalized and are treated as a reduction of
our rental expense over the term of the lease agreement.
We have evaluated events occurring after December 31, 2010,
through the date and time these financial statements were
issued. We have determined that there were no subsequent events
or transactions that required recognition or disclosure in the
consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed in
Notes 10 and 11 of these Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncement
|
In September 2006, the FASB issued guidance on fair value
measurements and disclosures. This guidance establishes a common
definition for fair value to be applied to U.S. GAAP
guidance requiring the use of fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosure
about such fair value measurements.
Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted this guidance on fair
value measurement and have applied its provisions to financial
assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair
value on a recurring basis at least annually. Beginning
January 1, 2009, we adopted this guidance as it related to
nonfinancial assets and liabilities. We applied the provisions
of this guidance in our accounting for our 2009 and 2010
acquisitions.
In September 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance on
measuring the fair value of liabilities effective for the first
reporting period beginning after its issuance.
79
HMS
HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that requires
reporting entities to make new disclosures about recurring or
nonrecurring fair-value measurements, including significant
transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair
value measurements and information on purchases, sales,
issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation
of Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is
effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation
disclosures, which are effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2010. We do not expect the adoption of
this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In November 2008, the FASB ratified an issue providing guidance
for accounting for defensive intangible assets subsequent to the
acquisition of such assets in accordance with the new business
combination and fair value standards, including the estimated
useful life that should be assigned to such assets. The new
guidance is effective for intangible assets acquired on or after
December 15, 2008. We have applied the provisions of this
standard to our 2009 and 2010 acquisitions as discussed in
Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related
to the recognition of revenue for multiple-deliverable
arrangements. This guidance provides accounting principles and
application guidance on how the arrangement should be separated,
and the consideration allocated. This guidance changes how to
determine the fair value of undelivered products and services
for separate revenue recognition. Allocation of consideration is
now based on managements estimate of the selling price for
an undelivered item where there is no other means to determine
the fair value of that undelivered item. Also in October 2009,
the FASB issued new accounting guidance altering the scope of
revenue recognition for software deliverables to exclude items
sold that include hardware with software that is essential to
the hardwares functionality. This new guidance will be
effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after
June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. We have
determined that this new guidance will not currently impact our
existing accounting over our multiple element arrangements.
The results of operations for our 2010, 2009 and 2008
acquisitions have been included in the Companys
consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
The Company has concluded that these acquisitions were not
material to its financial statements; therefore, pro forma
financial information is not presented herein.
Chapman
Kelly, Inc.
In August 2010, we acquired the assets and liabilities of
Chapman Kelly, for $13.0 million in cash. Chapman Kelly,
which is based in Jeffersonville, Indiana, provides dependent
eligibility audits to large, self-insured employers, as well as
plan and claims audits to both employers and managed care
organizations. The acquisition of Chapman Kelly did not have a
material effect on our 2010 revenue, earnings, earnings per
share or liquidity.
As a result of the acquisition occurring late in August 2010, we
have not yet completed a valuation of the assets and liabilities
acquired from Chapman Kelly. Accordingly, we have not completed
the purchase price allocation and therefore, the aggregate
purchase price allocation of this acquisition presented below is
subject to adjustments:
The preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase price of
the Chapman Kelly acquisition is estimated to be as follows (in

Allied
Management Group Special Investigation
Unit
In June 2010, we purchased all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of AMG-SIU for a purchase price valued at
$15.1 million, consisting of a $13.0 million initial
cash payment (subsequently reduced by a working capital
reduction of $0.2 million), and future contingent payments
estimated and recognized as of the acquisition date at $2.3
million. These payments are contingent upon AMG-SIUs
financial performance for each of the twelve month periods
ending June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012. The contingent
payments are not subject to any cap. Any contingent payments
owed for the periods ending June 30, 2011 and 2012 shall be
payable by September 30, 2011 and 2012. The undiscounted
contingent payments are currently estimated to be
$3.4 million and relate to the 12 month period ending
June 30, 2012. AMG-SIU, which is based in Santa Ana,
California, specializes in fraud, waste and abuse prevention and
detection solutions for healthcare payors, which further
strengthens our ability to service this segment of the market.
The acquisition of AMG-SIU did not have a material effect on our
2010 revenue, earnings per share or liquidity.
The fair value of the contingent consideration recognized on the
acquisition date of June 30, 2010 was estimated by applying
the income approach. That measure is based on significant inputs
not observable in the market that are defined by FASB guidance
on fair value as Level 3 inputs.
The acquisition of AMG-SIU was accounted for under the
acquisition method of accounting.
The following table summarizes the final amounts recognized for
assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition
date, as well as adjustments made to the amounts initially
recorded in June of 2010 (measurement period adjustments).

Verify
Solutions, LLC
In December 2009, we acquired the assets of Verify Solutions, an
Alpharetta, Georgia-based company specializing in dependent
eligibility audit services for large, self insured employers.
With this acquisition, we moved into the large and mid-market
employer-based market.
The purchase price for Verify Solutions was $8.1 million,
with additional future payments contingent upon Verify
Solutions achievement of financial performance milestones.
The additional future payments of up to $5.5 million
($2.7 million and $2.8 million for the years ended
December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively) will be made and
recorded to compensation expense in the year in which the
milestones are achieved. No compensation expense was recorded in
2010 as the performance milestones were not achieved.

HMS
HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
The allocation of the purchase price for Verify Solutions was
based upon the fair value estimate of its assets and
liabilities. The acquisition of Verify Solutions was based on
managements consideration of past and expected future
performance as well as the potential strategic fit with our
long-term goals. The expected long-term growth, market position
and expected synergies to be generated by Verify Solutions were
the primary factors that gave rise to an acquisition price that
resulted in the recognition of identifiable intangible assets.
In December 2010, following our acquisition of Chapman Kelly,
which together with Verify Solutions forms HMS Employer
Solutions, we amended the terms of the contingent payment for
2011. Under the terms of this amendment, the former owners of
Verify Solutions could earn a contingent payment of between
$1.3 million and $2.8 million based on the revenue
generated by HMS Employer Solutions for the year ending
December 31, 2011. If earned, the contingent payment will
be accrued and expensed to Compensation in 2011.
The following table summarizes the final amounts recognized for
assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition
date, as well as adjustments made in 2010 to the amounts
initially recorded in 2009 (measurement period adjustments). The
measurement period adjustments did not have a significant impact
on our consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or cash
flows in any period and, therefore, we have not retrospectively
adjusted our financial statements.

IntegriGuard
LLC
In September 2009, we acquired the assets and liabilities of
IntegriGuard, for $5.1 million in cash. IntegriGuard, which
operates as our wholly owned subsidiary, provides services for
the prevention and detection of fraud, waste and abuse in the
healthcare system and is based in Omaha, Nebraska. This
acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. This acquisition further expanded our portfolio of
program integrity service offerings for government healthcare
programs, particularly in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
The allocation of the purchase price for IntegriGuard was based
upon the fair value estimate of its assets and liabilities. The
acquisition of IntegriGuard was based on managements
consideration of past and expected future performance as well as
the potential strategic fit with our long-term goals. The
expected long-term growth, market position and expected
synergies to be generated by IntegriGuard were the primary
factors that gave rise to an acquisition price that resulted in
the recognition of unidentified intangible assets.

Prudent
Rx
In September 2008, we purchased the assets and liabilities of
Prudent Rx, a pharmacy audit and cost containment company based
in Culver City, California. This acquisition further expanded
our portfolio of program integrity service offerings for
government healthcare programs and managed care organizations,
particularly in the pharmacy arena. Prudent Rxs key
products and services include audit programs, program design and
benefit management, as well as general and pharmacy systems
consulting.
We purchased the assets and liabilities of Prudent Rx for
$4.5 million in cash, with additional future payments of up
to $2.3 million contingent upon Prudent Rxs
achievement of financial performance milestones. Prudent Rx did
not achieve the 2009 and 2010 performance milestones, as a
result no contingent payments were made to Prudent Rx.
The allocation of the purchase price of Prudent Rx was based
upon estimates of the fair value of its assets and liabilities.
The acquisition of Prudent Rx was based on managements
consideration of past and expected future performance as well as
the potential strategic fit with our long-term goals. The

At December 31, 2010, we had net operating loss (NOL)
carry-forwards of $0.1 million which are available to
offset future state and local taxable income. During 2010, we
utilized $32.4 million in tax deductions arising from 2010
stock option exercises, which resulted in an excess tax benefit
of $12.6 million that was recorded to capital and an
offsetting reduction to taxes payable.

There was a decrease in our valuation allowance of
$2.6 million from December 31, 2009 to
December 31, 2010, as a result of the expiration of the
capital loss carry forward. The sale of our subsidiary Accordis,
in 2005, resulted in a capital loss of $6.0 million, which
was carried forward for five years and produced a deferred tax
asset of $2.5 million, which expired December 31,
2010. Our remaining valuation allowance of $0.1 million at
December 31, 2010 relates to certain state NOLs.
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had approximately
$1.4 million and $1.0 million of net unrecognized tax
benefits, respectively, for which there is uncertainty about the
allocation and apportionment impacting state taxable income. We
do not expect any significant change in unrecognized tax
benefits during the next twelve months. We have recognized
interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in
interest expense and penalties in tax expense. The accrued
liabilities related to uncertain tax positions were
$0.5 million and $0.4 million at December 31,
2010 and 2009, respectively. The additions to the accrued
liabilities related to uncertain tax positions taken during 2010.
We have a credit agreement with several banks and other
financial institutions, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMCB)
as administrative agent, or the Credit Agreement. The Credit
Agreement, which expires in September 2011, provided for a term
loan of $40 million, or the Term Loan and revolving credit
loans of up to $25 million, which we refer to as the
Revolving Loan. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we
repaid in full the $17.3 million of debt outstanding under
the Term Loan. However, we continue to have an irrevocable
standby Letter of Credit for $4.6 million against the
Revolving Loan, as required by a contractual arrangement with a
client.
We secured the Term and Revolving Loans with the grant of a
security interest, covering our assets and subsidiaries, in
favor of the lenders. Interest on borrowings under the Credit
Agreement is calculated, at our option, at either
(i) LIBOR, including statutory reserves, plus a variable
margin based on our leverage ratio, or (ii) the higher of
(a) the prime lending rate of JPMCB and (b) the
Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, in each case, plus a
variable margin based on our leverage ratio. In connection with
the Revolving Loan, we agreed to pay a commitment fee on the
unused portion of the Revolving Loan, payable quarterly in
arrears, at a variable rate based on our leverage ratio.
Commitments under the Credit Agreement will be reduced and
borrowings are required to be repaid with the net proceeds of,
among other things, sales or issuances of equity (excluding
equity issued under employee benefit plans and equity issued to
sellers as consideration in acquisitions), sales of assets and
any incurrence of indebtedness by us, subject, in each case, to
limited exceptions. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement
may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default
under the Credit Agreement, which encompasses customary events
of default including, without limitation, payment defaults,
defaults in the performance of affirmative and negative
covenants, the inaccuracy of representations or warranties,
bankruptcy and insolvency related defaults, defaults relating to
such matters as ERISA, uninsured judgments and the failure to
pay certain indebtedness and a change of control default.
In addition, the Credit Agreement contains affirmative, negative
and financial covenants customary for financings of this type.
The negative covenants include restrictions on indebtedness,
liens, fundamental changes, dispositions of property,
investments, dividends and other restricted payments. The
financial covenants include a consolidated fixed charge coverage
ratio, as defined, of not less than 1.75 to 1.0 and a
consolidated leverage ratio, as defined, not to exceed 3.0 to
1.0, through December 31, 2010. We are currently in full
compliance with these covenants.
On March 30, 2010, we entered into an amendment to the
Credit Agreement, which we refer to as the First Amendment, to
increase the total amount we could spend on acquisitions in any
one year from $10.0 million to $30.0 million. In
connection with entering into the First Amendment, the lenders
agreed to waive any default that
87
HMS
HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO

STATEMENTS (Continued)
may have occurred and be continuing as a result of the Verify
Solutions acquisition, which closed on December 31, 2009,
as a result of which we exceeded the aggregate acquisition
amount in 2009. This default did not have a material impact on
our 2009 financial statements since we had no outstanding debt
and only a Letter of Credit outstanding.
Fees and expenses incurred in 2006 of $0.9 million related
to the Credit Agreement have been recorded as deferred financing
costs (included in other assets, non-current) and are amortized
to interest expense over the five-year life of the Credit
Agreement using the effective interest method. Since the Term
Loan was repaid in 2009, the remaining deferred financing costs
of $224,000 as of October 2009 have been charged against income.
On May 28, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of such number of shares of our common stock that
have an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $10 million.
On February 24, 2006, the Board of Directors increased the
authorized aggregate purchase price to an amount not to exceed
$20 million. We are authorized to repurchase these shares
from
time-to-time
on the open market or in negotiated transactions at prices
deemed appropriate by our management. Repurchased shares are
deposited in the treasury and used for general corporate
purposes. During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008, we did not repurchase any shares of common stock.
Since the inception of the repurchase program in June 1997, we
have repurchased 1,662,846 shares of common stock at an
average price of $5.65 per share and for an aggregate purchase
price of $9.4 million.
Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, authorizes the
issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of blank
check preferred stock with such designations, rights and
preferences as may be determined by our Board of Directors. As
of December 31, 2010, no preferred stock had been issued.
We sponsor a benefit plan to provide retirement benefits for our
employees, which is known as the HMS Holdings Corp. 401(k) Plan,
or the 401(k) Plan. Participants may make voluntary
contributions to the 401(k) Plan of up to 60% of their annual
base pre-tax compensation not to exceed the federally determined
maximum allowable contribution. The 401(k) Plan permits us to
make discretionary contributions. These contributions are not in
the form of our common stock.
Participants are permitted to invest their contributions in our
common stock. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008, we contributed $2.5 million, $1.6 million
and $1.3 million, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.

Stock-Based
Compensation Plans
|
We grant stock options to purchase our common stock, restricted
stock awards and restricted stock units to our employees and
directors under our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Plan,
or the 2006 Plan. Our 2006 Plan was adopted in June 2006 and
superseded our 1999 Long-Term Incentive Stock Plan, or the 1999
Plan. There are options outstanding that were granted under the
1999 Plan. In addition, there are options outstanding that were
granted outside these plans. Stock-based compensation cost is
measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award
and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the
requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
Stock options granted under our 2006 or 1999 Plan generally vest
over a one to four year period. The restricted stock awards and
restricted stock units granted under our 2006 Plan vest over a
three to five year period and the related stock-based
compensation expense is ratably recognized over those same time
periods.

Total stock-based compensation expense charged as a selling,
general and administrative expense in our consolidated
statements of income related to our stock compensation plans was
$7.5 million, $6.4 million and $3.5 million for
the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in our
consolidated statements of income for the years ended
December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 related to our stock
compensation plans was $3.0 million, $2.6 million and
$1.4 million, respectively.

|
(a)
|
Third
Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Plan
|
As of December 31, 2010, we had one stock-based
compensation plan, the 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan permits the
granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock
options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock
awards and restricted stock units, performance shares and
performance units, share awards and phantom stock awards.
Our 2006 Plan was approved by our shareholders in June 2006. The
purpose of the 2006 Plan is to furnish a material incentive to
our employees and non-employee directors by making available to
them the benefits of a larger common stock ownership through
stock options and awards. We believe that these increased
incentives stimulate the efforts of employees and non-employee
directors towards our continued success, as well as assist in
the recruitment of new employees and non-employee directors.
A total of 4,000,000 shares have been authorized for
issuance under the 2006 Plan. Any shares issued in connection
with awards other than stock options and SARs are counted
against the 4,000,000 share limit as one and eighty-five
hundredths (1.85) of a share for every one share issued in
connection with such award or by which the award is valued by
reference.
All of our employees as well as our non-employee directors are
eligible to participate in the 2006 Plan. However, only our
employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options. The
exercise price of stock options granted under the 2006 Plan may
not be less than fair market value of a share of stock on the
grant date, as measured by the closing price of our common stock
on The NASDAQ Global Select Market and the term of a stock
option may not exceed seven years.
During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors approved stock option grants to purchase
an aggregate of 224,408 shares of common stock to our
directors, executive officers and employees under the 2006 Plan
at an exercise price of $59.32 per share, the closing price of
our common stock on the date of the grant. Stock options granted
to our directors vest quarterly over a one year period. Stock
options granted to employees vest as follows: half of the stock
options vest in one-third increments on December 31, 2011,
2012 and 2013 and the other half vests on December 31,
2013, provided certain pre-defined performance and service
conditions are satisfied.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, stock options to
purchase an aggregate of 224,841 shares of common stock and
38,805 restricted stock units were granted under the 2006 Plan.
There were no restricted stock awards granted, leaving
1,437,208 shares of common stock available for grant under
the 2006 Plan. As of December 31, 2010, options to purchase
1,714,596 shares of common stock, 127,918 restricted stock
awards and 56,930 restricted stock units were outstanding under
the 2006 Plan.

1999
Long-Term Incentive Plan
|
Our 1999 Long-Term Incentive Stock Plan, or the 1999 Plan, was
approved by our shareholders in March 1999. The 1999 Plan was
terminated upon approval of the 2006 Plan by our shareholders in
June 2006 and, accordingly, no additional awards options may be
granted thereunder. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, there
were 500,497 and 878,273 stock options outstanding, respectively.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities are
calculated based on the historical volatility of our common
stock. Management monitors share option exercise and employee
termination patterns to estimate forfeiture rates within the
valuation model. Separate groups of employees that have similar
historical exercise behavior are considered separately for
valuation purposes. The expected holding period of options
represents the period of time that options granted are expected
to be outstanding. The expected terms of options granted are
based upon the Companys historical experience for similar
types of stock option awards. The risk-free interest rate is
based on U.S. Treasury notes.
During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, we
issued 0.9 million shares, 1.4 million shares and
0.8 million shares, respectively, of our common stock upon
the exercise of outstanding stock options and received proceeds
of $9.1 million, $10.1 million and $4.2 million,
respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008, we realized a $12.6 million, $13.2 million
and $10.5 million tax benefit from the exercise of stock
options, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options
exercised during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008 was $41.9 million, $37.2 million and $14.9 million,
respectively.
For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
approximately $6.3 million, $5.6 million and
$3.5 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation
cost relating to stock options has been charged against income.
As of December 31, 2010, there was approximately
$10.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost,
adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to stock options
outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of 1.6 years.
The aggregate intrinsic value in the previous table reflects the
total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between our closing
stock price on the last trading day of the period and the
exercise price of the options, multiplied

in-the-money
stock options) that would have been received by the option
holders had all option holders exercised their options on
December 31, 2010. The intrinsic value of our stock options
changes based on the closing price of our common stock.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of the
stock options granted during the years ended December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008 was $21.25, $14.62 and $8.47, respectively.

In October 2010 and October 2009, certain employees received
restricted stock units under the 2006 Plan. In October 2010 our
Board of Directors also received restricted stock units under
the 2006 Plan. The fair value of restricted stock units is
estimated based on the closing sale price of our common stock on
the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the date of issuance. The
total number of restricted stock units expected to vest is
adjusted by estimated forfeiture rates. As of December 31,
2010 and 2009, there was approximately $2.6 million and
$0.9 million, respectively, of unamortized compensation
cost related to restricted stock units which is expected to be
recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of
2.0 years. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and
2009, stock-based compensation expense related to restricted
stock units was $0.4 million and $0.1 million,
respectively.

stock awards are not required to provide us with any
consideration other than rendering service. Holders of
restricted stock are permitted to vote and to receive dividends.
The stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards
is determined based on the closing market price of our common
stock on the grant date of the awards applied to the total
number of awards that are anticipated to fully vest. At
December 31, 2010, there was unrecognized stock-based
compensation of $2.8 million stock-based compensation
related to restricted stock awards, which is expected to be
recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.6 years.

Public
Consulting Group, Inc.

One of our directors is the President, Chief Executive Officer,
controlling stockholder and a member of the Board of Directors
of PCG. Since the acquisition of BSPA in 2006, we have entered
into subcontractor agreements with PCG, pursuant to which we
provide cost containment services. For the years ended
December 31, 2010, 2009, 2008, amounts we recognized as
revenue under subcontractor agreements with PCG were
$0.2 million, $2.8 million and $2.3 million,
respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008 accounts receivable outstanding related to these
subcontractor agreements with PCG were $2.5 million,
$2.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
In addition, as part of the acquisition of BSPA in 2006, we
entered into an office sublease agreement with PCG, which
expired in January 2010. For the years ended December 31,
2010, 2009, 2008, we recognized $5,500, $110,000 and $110,000,
respectively, as expense under the sublease agreement with PCG.
In connection with the BSPA acquisition, we entered into an
Intercompany Services Agreement (ISA) with PCG to allow each
party to perform services for the other, such as information
technology support and contractual transition services. Services
performed under the ISA are billed at pre-determined rates
specified in the ISA. For the years ended December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008 services rendered by PCG under the ISA were
valued at approximately $360,000, $122,000 and $33,000,
respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009
and 2008 our services rendered to PCG were valued at
approximately $112,000, $184,000 and $58,000, respectively.
Since the BSPA acquisition, amounts collected by or paid on our
behalf by PCG are reimbursed to PCG at cost. For the years ended
December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 the amount owed to PCG was
$119,000, $170,000 and $72,000, respectively and classified as a
current liability.

On March 1, 2011, we entered into a new employment

Officer. If we terminate Mr. Lucias employment
without Cause, in connection with a Change in Control or
otherwise, or if his employment ceases because of his death or
disability or if he terminates his employment with Good Reason,
then provided Mr. Lucia executes a Separation Agreement and
Release and complies with restrictive covenants and
confidentiality provisions contained in his employment
agreement, he will be entitled to (i) 24 times his monthly
base salary, (ii) a bonus component equal to twice his
target bonus and (iii) continued health coverage for
24 months or until he becomes eligible for health coverage
from another employer, whichever is earlier.
In addition, under the terms of our letter agreements of

required to provide salary and benefit continuation for between
six to 12 months if they are involuntarily terminated.
