Hooper Holmes, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2012
(in thousands, except share data, unless otherwise noted)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

a) Hooper Holmes, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Hooper Holmes” or the "Company”) provide health risk assessment services to the life insurance and health industries.  The Company operates in one reportable operating segment and provides paramedical and medical examinations, personal health interviews and record collection, and laboratory testing, which help life insurance companies evaluate the risks associated with underwriting policies.  The Company also conducts wellness screenings for wellness companies, disease management organizations and health plans.

The Company's core activities consist of arranging for paramedical examinations on behalf of insurance carriers, primarily in connection with such carriers’ processing and evaluation of the risks associated with underwriting insurance policies - mainly life insurance policies. As a provider of health risk assessment services to the insurance industry, the Company's business is subject to seasonality, with third quarter sales typically dropping below the other quarters due to the decline in activity typically experienced by the insurance industry during the summer months.
    
b) The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2012.

Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and other disclosures. The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of the Company's management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.

The results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional information.


Note 2:
Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the sum of the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period plus dilutive common stock equivalents.

The Company's net loss and weighted average shares outstanding used for computing diluted loss per share were the same as that used for computing basic loss per share for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 because the inclusion of common stock equivalents would have been antidilutive. Outstanding stock options to purchase approximately 3,648,000 and 3,662,000 shares of the Company's common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of the Company's common stock for such periods and, therefore, were antidilutive.

Note 3: Share-Based Compensation

Employee Share-Based Compensation Plans - On May 29, 2008, the Company's shareholders approved the 2008 Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) providing for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, non-vested stock and performance shares. The 2008 Plan provides for the issuance of an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares. As of March 31, 2012, approximately 920,000 shares remain available for grant under the 2008 Plan.

On May 24, 2011, the Company's shareholders approved the 2011 Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan") providing for the grant of stock options and non-vested stock awards. The 2011 Plan provides for the issuance of an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares. As of March 31, 2012, approximately 1,425,000 shares remain available for grant under the 2011 Plan.

Options under the 2008 and 2011 Plans are granted at fair value on the date of grant, are exercisable in accordance with a vesting schedule specified in the grant agreement, and have contractual lives of 10 years from the date of grant. Options to purchase 500,000 of the Company's stock granted to certain executives of the Company in December 2010 vest 50% on each of the first and second anniversaries of the grant. Options to purchase 550,000 of the Company's stock granted to certain executives of the Company in July 2011 vest one-third on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant. Options to purchase 150,000 of the Company's stock granted to a certain executive of the Company in the fourth quarter of 2011 vest one-fourth on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the grant. All other options granted by the Company vest 25% on each of the second through fifth anniversaries of the grant.

No options were granted during the three month period ended March 31, 2012. During the three month period ended March 31, 2011, options for the purchase of 150,000 shares were granted under the 2008 Plan. The fair value of the stock options granted during the three month period ended March 31, 2011 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

The aggregate intrinsic value disclosed in the table above represents the difference between the Company's closing stock price on the last trading day of the quarter ended March 31, 2012 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money stock options.
No stock options were exercised during either of the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Options for the purchase of 57,500 shares of common stock vested during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, and the aggregate fair value at grant date of these options was $0.03 million. As of March 31, 2012, there was approximately $0.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

In July 2009, an aggregate of 500,000 shares of non-vested stock were granted under the 2008 Plan. The shares vest as follows: 25% after two years and 25% on each of the next three anniversary dates thereafter. As of March 31, 2012, an aggregate of 300,000 shares of such non-vested stock were forfeited and 50,000 were vested. In July 2011, an aggregate of 305,000 shares of non-vested stock were granted under the 2008 Plan. As of March 31, 2012, an aggregate of 45,000 shares of such non-vested stock were forfeited. The shares vest as follows: 33% on each of the first and second anniversary dates and 34% on the third anniversary. As of March 31, 2012, there was approximately $0.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over 2.3 years.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan - In February 2011, under the Stock Purchase Plan (2004) of Hooper Holmes, Inc. (the "2004 Plan"), purchase rights for approximately 280,800 shares were granted with an aggregate fair value of $0.05 million, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This offering concluded in March 2012 and, in accordance with the 2004 Plan's automatic termination provision, no shares were issued. In February 2012, under the 2004 Plan, purchase rights for approximately 273,000 shares were granted with an aggregate fair value of $0.05 million, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The February 2012 offering will conclude in March 2013.
Other Stock Awards - On May 30, 2007, the Company's shareholders approved the Hooper Holmes, Inc. 2007 Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Plan (the “2007 Plan”), which provides for the automatic grant, on an annual basis for 10 years, of shares of the Company's stock to the Company's non-employee directors. The total number of shares that may be awarded under the 2007 Plan is 600,000. As of March 31, 2012, there remain available for grant approximately 420,000 shares under the 2007 Plan. Effective June 1, 2007, each non-employee member of the Board of Directors other than the non-executive chair receives 5,000 shares annually and the non-executive chair receives 10,000 shares annually of the Company's stock, with such shares vesting immediately upon issuance. The Company believes that the shares awarded under the 2007 Plan are “restricted securities”, as defined in SEC Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with respect to the 2007 Plan on April 16, 2008. The directors who receive shares under the 2007 Plan are "affiliates" as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and thus remain subject to the applicable provisions of Rule 144. In addition, the terms of the awards (whether or not restricted) specify that the shares may not be sold or transferred by the recipient until the director ceases to serve on the Board or, if at that time the director has not served on the Board for at least four years, on the fourth anniversary of the date the director first became a Board member. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, no shares were awarded under the 2007 Plan.

The Company recorded $0.1 million in selling, general and administrative expenses in each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, related to stock options, non-vested stock, restricted stock awards and the 2004 Plan.

On December 1, 2010, the Company entered into the First Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "First Amendment") with TD Bank. Under the First Amendment, the Company has the ability, on or prior to the second anniversary of the First Amendment, and subject to a determination by the Company's Board of Directors authorizing such a transaction, to repurchase up to $5 million of its capital stock out of Qualified Cash (as such term is defined in the First Amendment), provided no Default or Event of Default (as such terms are defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) shall have otherwise occurred. In addition, under the First Amendment, the maturity date of the Loan and Security Agreement has been extended by one year (to March 8, 2013 from March 8, 2012) and, commencing March 8, 2012 and at all times thereafter, the unused line fee (usage fee) under the Loan and Security Agreement will reduce from one percent (1%) per annum to one-half of one percent (1/2%) per annum, in each case on the difference between $15 million and the sum of the average daily outstanding principal balance of cash advances under the revolving credit line and the average daily aggregate undrawn portion of all outstanding letters of credit for the preceding month.
    
On February 25, 2011, the Company entered into the Second Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Second Amendment"). Under the Second Amendment, the maximum aggregate future purchase money indebtedness and capitalized lease obligations of the Company in respect of specific items of equipment was increased to $2.0 million from $0.25 million effective December 31, 2010. The Second Amendment also contains other customary representations, warranties, covenants and terms and conditions.

On February 29, 2012, the Company entered into the Third Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Third Amendment"). Under the Third Amendment, the Company is obligated to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a rolling 12 month basis of not less than 1.1 to 1.0 as of any fiscal quarter ending after September 30, 2011 if, for any one or more day(s) following any such fiscal quarter end, (a) the outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement is greater than $0 and (b) the amount of the Company's cash on deposit with TD Bank is less than $6.0 million. The Third Amendment also contains other customary representations, warranties, covenants and terms and conditions.

The Loan and Security Agreement (as amended) provides the Company with a revolving line of credit, the proceeds of which are to be used for general working capital purposes.  Under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank has agreed to make revolving credit loans to the Company in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which, when combined with the aggregate undrawn amount of all unexpired letters of credit, does not exceed 85% of “Eligible Receivables” (as that term is defined in the Loan and Security Agreement), provided that in no event can the aggregate amount of the revolving credit loans and letters of credit outstanding at any time exceed $15 million.  The maximum aggregate face amount of letters of credit that may be outstanding at any time may not exceed $1.5 million.

Borrowings of revolving credit loans shall take the form of LIBOR rate advances with the applicable interest rate being the LIBOR rate, plus 3.5% per annum.

Through March 7, 2012, the Company was obligated to pay, on a monthly basis in arrears, an unused line fee (usage fee) equal to 1% per annum on the difference between $15 million and the average daily outstanding principal balance of cash advances under the revolving credit line plus the average daily aggregate undrawn portion of all outstanding letters of credit for the preceding month.  Effective March 8, 2012, the usage fee is one-half of one percent (1/2%) per annum. In addition, the Company is required to pay an annual loan fee of $0.1 million.  During the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred unused line fees of $0.04 million and $0.04 million, respectively.

In December 2009, the Company opened a $0.1 million TD VISA credit card account to be used by Hooper Holmes Services medical records retrieval service line. The letter of credit and the credit card reduced the Company’s borrowing capacity under its revolving line of credit.  As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s borrowing capacity under the revolving line of credit totaled $14.9 million (which is 85% of Eligible Receivables) and there were no outstanding borrowings.

The revolving credit loans are payable in full, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, on the earlier of March 8, 2013 or the date of termination of the loan commitments, termination being one of the actions TD Bank may take upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  The Company may prepay any revolving credit loan, in whole or in part without penalty, with the amount of such prepayment available to be reborrowed, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Loan and Security Agreement (as amended).  The Company may also terminate the Loan and Security Agreement, provided that on the date of such termination all of its obligations are paid in full.  The Company is subject to a fee equal to $0.1 million upon early termination of the Loan and Security Agreement.

As security for the Company’s full and timely payment and other obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company granted TD Bank a security interest in all existing and after-acquired property of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, including its receivables (which are subject to a lockbox account arrangement), inventory and equipment.  As further security, the Company granted TD Bank a mortgage lien encumbering the Company’s corporate headquarters.  The aforementioned security interest and mortgage lien are collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral”.

Pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank, in its sole discretion based upon its reasonable credit judgment, may (A) establish and change reserves required against Eligible Receivables, (B) change the advance rate against Eligible Receivables or the fair market value of the Company’s corporate headquarters, and (C) impose additional restrictions on the standards of eligibility for Eligible Receivables, any of which could reduce the aggregate amount of indebtedness that may be incurred under the Loan and Security Agreement.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability, and that of its subsidiaries, to:

pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem or retire any shares of any class of its capital stock or other equity interests;

incur additional indebtedness;

sell or otherwise dispose of any of its assets, other than in the ordinary course of business;

create liens on its assets;

enter into any sale and leaseback transactions; and

enter into transactions with any of its affiliates on other than an arm’s-length or no less favorable basis.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement), and as amended under the Third Amendment noted above, measured on a rolling 12 month basis of not less that 1.1 to 1.0 as of any fiscal quarter ending after September 30, 2011 if, for any one or more day(s) following any such fiscal quarter end, (a) the outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement is greater than $0 and (b) the amount of the Company's cash on deposit with TD Bank is less than $6.0 million. As of March 31, 2012, both because the Company's cash on deposit with TD Bank exceeded $6.0 million and the Company's outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement was $0, compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not applicable. However, if this covenant did apply, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio measured as specified in the Loan and Security Agreement as of March 31, 2012 was (4.9) to 1. As such, the Company would fail this financial covenant and therefore would have no borrowing capability under the terms of its Loan and Security Agreement.

The failure of the Company or that of any subsidiary guarantor to comply with any of the covenants or the breach of any of its or their representations and warranties, contained in the Loan and Security Agreement, constitutes an Event of Default under the agreement.  In addition, the Loan and Security Agreement provides that “Events of Default” include the occurrence or failure of any event or condition that, in TD Bank’s sole judgment, could have a material adverse effect (i) on the business, operations, assets, management, liabilities or condition of the Company, (ii) in the value of or the perfection or priority of TD Bank’s lien upon the Collateral, or (iii) on the ability of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors to perform under the Loan and Security Agreement.

The current challenging economic climate may lead to future reductions in revenues.  If revenues continue to decline compared to the prior year, operating losses may continue to occur, the Company may be required to take additional actions to further reduce costs and capital spending, and restructure operations.  This would also reduce the Company's cash reserves. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that the Company's current and future cost reduction actions will generate the cost savings necessary to offset declining revenues.  If the Company is unsuccessful in implementing additional cost reduction initiatives and/or if revenues continue to decline at levels similar to or worse than that experienced in 2011, the Company may continue to fail to satisfy the financial covenant contained in the Loan and Security Agreement and therefore would be prohibited from borrowing under the Loan and Security Agreement.  Further, as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank may at its sole discretion request additional security, reduce availability or determine if negative events are Events of Default. These and other factors would adversely affect the Company's liquidity and its ability to generate profits in the future.

Note 8: Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has employment retention or change in control agreements with the executive officers of the Company for a one year period from the date a change in control occurs as defined in the agreements.

On July 11, 2003, the Company received a determination from the Internal Revenue Service that one individual the Company contracted with as an independent contractor, should have been classified as an employee in 2002. This ruling also applied to any other individuals engaged by the Company under similar circumstances. The ruling stated that the Company may not be subject to adverse consequences as the Company may be entitled to relief under applicable tax laws (Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978). Management believes that the Company qualifies for relief under Section 530. To date, the Company has not received any further communication from the Internal Revenue Service.

In the past, some state agencies have claimed that the Company improperly classified its health professionals as independent contractors for purposes of state unemployment and/or worker's compensation tax laws and that the Company was therefore liable for taxes in arrears, or for penalties for failure to comply with their interpretation of the laws.  There are no assurances that the Company will not be subject to similar claims in other states in the future.

Note 9: Litigation

The Company is aware that a complaint was filed on April 23, 2012 in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging, among other things, that the Company had failed to pay overtime compensation to certain employees as required by federal law. The Company has not yet been served with the complaint. Based on a preliminary investigation, the Company believes the allegations are without merit and, if served, expects to defend the case vigorously.

The Company is a party to a number of other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the Company has substantial legal defenses and/or insurance coverage with respect to all of its pending legal actions. Accordingly, none of these actions is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, its consolidated results of operations or its consolidated financial position.

Note 10: Income Taxes

The Company recorded tax expense of $0.02 million and $0.02 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, reflecting certain state tax liabilities. No amounts were recorded for unrecognized tax benefits or for the payment of interest and penalties during the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. No federal or state tax benefits were recorded relating to the current year loss, as the Company continues to believe that a full valuation allowance is required on its net deferred tax assets.
In July 2008, the Company received notification from the Internal Revenue Service that it had completed its audits of the Company's tax returns for the years 2001 through 2006 with no adjustments. State income tax returns for the year 2007 and forward are subject to examination.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company has U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $96.8 million and $96.0 million, respectively. The net operating loss carryforwards, if unutilized, will expire in the years 2012 through 2031.

Overview

Our Company was founded in 1899. We are a publicly-traded New York corporation whose shares of common stock are listed on the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange.  Our corporate headquarters are located in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Over the last 40 years, our business focus has been on providing health risk assessment services.  We currently engage in several service lines that are managed as one division:  the Health Information Division.

Our Health Information Division (HID) consists of the following service lines:

Portamedic – performs paramedical and medical examinations of individuals, primarily on behalf of insurance companies in connection with the offering or rating of insurance coverage (mainly life insurance), along with medical examinations of health plan participants in order to provide medical information on plan members to the plan sponsors;

Heritage Labs – performs tests of blood, urine and oral fluid specimens, primarily generated in connection with the paramedical exams and wellness screenings performed by our Portamedic and Health & Wellness service lines, respectively, and assembles and sells specimen collection kits;

Health & Wellness – performs risk assessment and risk management services, including biometric screenings, health risk assessments and onsite wellness coaching for health and care management companies, including wellness companies, disease management organizations, clinical research organizations, health plans and others; and

Hooper Holmes Services – provides telephone interviews of insurance candidates, retrieval of medical records and inspections, risk management solutions and underwriting services for simplified issue products and products requiring full underwriting.

Our Portamedic paramedical examination services accounted for 68.7% and 70.5% of revenues for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As a provider of health risk assessment services to the insurance industry, our business is subject to seasonality, with third quarter sales typically dropping below the other quarters due to the decline in activity typically experienced by the insurance industry during the summer months.

Highlights for the Three Month Period Ended March 31, 2012

The Company

For the three month period ended March 31, 2012, consolidated revenues totaled $38.8 million, a 4.4% decline from the corresponding prior year period. Our gross profit totaled $9.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 versus $11.0 million in the comparable prior year period. Our gross profit percentage was 23.2% for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, compared to a gross profit percentage of 27.0% for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, primarily attributable to gross profit declines in our Portamedic service line, where revenues declined at a rate greater than the associated, primarily fixed, costs.

SG&A expenses were $11.5 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $0.6 million, or 5.3%, in comparison to the three month period ended March 31, 2011, primarily related to additional sales headcount, training and IT costs. During the three month period ended March 31, 2012, restructuring charges totaled $0.6 million, consisting primarily of severance.

Our operating loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $3.1 million compared to operating income of $0.03 million for the comparable prior year period.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2012, we incurred a net loss of $3.1 million, or $0.05 per share on both a basic and diluted basis, compared to net loss of $0.06 million, or $0.00 per share on both a basic and diluted basis, for the comparable prior year period.

For the remainder of 2012, we expect to continue improving our processes and organization structure and focusing on customer channels including brokers, direct marketers, insurance agents and health care companies. We made significant capital investments and operating improvements in 2011 that we believe are transforming the way we deliver services, improving our competitive position and lowering our cost structure, which should enable profitable growth beginning in the second half of this year.

Portamedic

In the quarter ended March 31, 2012, Portamedic revenues decreased approximately 6.8% in comparison to the prior year period. Our revenue decline is primarily attributable to a decline in completed examinations in the first quarter 2012 of 4.8% compared to the first quarter of 2011 and a 2.4% reduction in the average revenue per paramedical examination. We continue to believe that achieving acceptable profitability levels will require top-line revenue growth, including the reversal of past revenue declines. Although we have contracts or billing approvals with over 90% of the insurance carriers in the marketplace, the number of paramedical examinations we complete on life insurance applicants continues to decline. The rate of decline in completed examinations was 4.8% in the first quarter of 2012, 6.5% for the full year 2011 and 6.2% for the first quarter of 2011 as compared to the comparable prior year period. In order to reverse our decline in completed examinations, we are taking steps to achieve greater sales success with local agents, brokers, direct marketers and insurance carriers.

The market for Portamedic's services has been negatively affected by both declining numbers of life insurance applications requiring paramed exams and steady price pressure on Portamedic and its competitors.   According to LIMRA's U.S. Individual Life Insurance Sales Trends, 1975 - 2010, there were approximately 9.3 million applications for life insurance completed in the United States in 2010, compared to approximately 17 million applications in 1985.  We believe that the market continues to offer opportunities to a company that can sell its services effectively and distinguish itself from its competitors.

During the past several fiscal quarters, we have taken the following steps to increase our market share and improve top-line revenue:

In March 2012, we entered into an agreement with a national insurance brokerage firm to provide efficient data acquisition and processing solutions. Using the full breath of our service capabilities, we expect to improve this brokerage's insurance e-application process.

We promoted and hired new field sales managers and grew our field sales force by almost 30%. We introduced new field sales and regional operations incentive compensation plans and performance measurement systems, while implementing a new Customer Relationship Management system for our sales teams.

We completed development of a new Portamedic web portal to make it easier for customers to order our services.


12



We continue to make capital investments which will enable us to improve our current Portamedic service delivery model in 2012 and provide greater operational performance and service quality, while reducing operating costs in our current branch office structure.

We implemented a new warehouse management and inventory control system to reduce costs and improve efficiencies in distributing lab kits to our health professionals.

We expanded our iParamed e-Exam platform, deploying over 1,000 iParamed-equipped netbooks to health professionals in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

We are continuing the rollout of our new IT system for processing Portamedic customer orders, which is expected to improve customer service, while lowering future operating costs. As of March 31, 2012, the total cost of the system, including implementation and training costs, totaled approximately $4.4 million of which $0.7 million was incurred in the first quarter of 2012. During the remainder of 2012, we expect to spend an additional $0.7 million primarily for system enhancements, and additional training and implementation costs.

In 2011, we successfully completed our annual SOC II engagement (formerly SAS 70 Type II), a third-party review of our IT processes and procedures for handling customer data. We believe this review gives customers confidence in our information controls, information security and technology management processes.

We upgraded branch telephone systems to Voice Over IP, using our secure backbone network for voice communication. We believe this will result in decreased future cash outlay for communications and increased customer satisfaction through faster response to calls.
 
We believe that the steps we are taking to improve our selling ability, and the quality and speed of our services, will enable us to reduce the rate of decline experienced in the last several years.  

Heritage Labs

Heritage Labs services consist principally of performing tests of blood, urine and oral fluid specimens and the assembly and sale of kits used in the collection and transportation of such specimens to its lab facility. Heritage Labs revenues in the first quarter of 2012 of $3.7 million increased 2.0% as compared to the prior year period. In the first quarter of 2012, approximately 58% of Heritage Labs revenue came from lab testing and 42% came from the sale of specimen kits. The decline in lab testing revenue of 2.1% was more than offset by an 8.4% increase in lab kit assembly revenue.

Most of Heritage Labs revenue originates from paramedical exam companies (including Portamedic), and therefore Heritage Labs is affected by the same negative market trends affecting Portamedic, namely the decline in the number of life insurance applications requiring paramed exams. In response, Heritage Labs has taken the following steps to attempt to expand its market share and increase revenues:

We have developed a "risk score" methodology to help our insurance clients better understand the mortality implications between and among interactions of multiple tests related to specific disease states. We believe that the mortality data we are providing are unique and more complex than the data being provided by our competitors. We have shared our risk score data set and design approach with major re-insurers to validate our methodology to risk scoring. Our objective has been to assist our clients in their ability to develop new insurance products and establish more accurate premium rating or pricing techniques using the lab mortality data that we have developed.

We have developed sales initiatives designed to increase the number of paramedical examinations completed by our Portamedic service line that generate lab testing orders for Heritage Labs. We have also developed sales initiatives designed to increase the volume of lab test orders for Heritage Labs that are not generated by Portamedic exams.

While we intend for these measures to increase our market share and revenues, there can be no assurance we will achieve those results. We believe that, as a result of the initiatives noted above, along with Portamedic revenue improvements, we may achieve future growth at Heritage Labs.  

13




Health & Wellness

Our Health & Wellness service line recorded revenues of approximately $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $0.7 million, or 19.1%, from the prior year period, primarily attributable to an increased number of health screenings performed. In the first quarter of 2012, we performed approximately 75,000 health screenings. In the first quarter of 2011, we performed approximately 65,000 health screenings. During the first quarter of 2012, we provided our services to 46 health management companies. We have conducted screening events in every state in the U.S. as well as the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. To date, we have certified approximately 3,200 of the health professionals in our network to be “wellness certified” examiners. Approximately 65% of these certified health professionals also perform services for our Portamedic service line.

Health & Wellness services include event scheduling, provision and fulfillment of all supplies (e.g., examination kits, blood pressure cuffs, stadiometers, scales, centrifuges, lab coats, bandages, etc.) at screening events, event management, biometric screenings (height, weight, body mass index, hip, waist, neck, pulse, blood pressure), blood draws via venipuncture or finger stick, lab testing, participant and aggregate reporting, data processing and data transmission.  Heritage Labs does all of the testing on the venipuncture samples we collect at health and wellness screenings.  

We believe the market for health and wellness is likely to grow over the next three to five years, and that we are well positioned to increase revenues from our biometric screening and coaching services. Several recent milestones expected to grow revenues include:

We announced that Hooper Holmes had been chosen to collect biological samples for the largest government study of tobacco use ever conducted in the United States. This five year study, which begins in 2012, will draw upon our strengths, including our national network of local health professionals and Heritage Labs' kit manufacturing. We were chosen for this work by Westat, a leading research and statistical survey organization.

In October 2011, we appointed Susheel Jain as our new Senior Vice President of Healthcare. Mr. Jain joined us from WellPoint, one of the largest health benefits companies in the country, where he was responsible for developing new care management services, including integrated wellness and incentive solutions.

We believe that we are well-positioned to capture a significant share of the health and care management market given our Company’s unique set of assets, including Heritage Labs, our proprietary Health & Wellness IT system, and our network of certified health professionals.   However, the success of Health & Wellness will depend in part upon the yet-to-be-proven benefits of health and care management initiatives to the employers and others who sponsor them.  

Hooper Holmes Services

Hooper Holmes Services revenues for the first quarter 2012 were $5.0 million, a decrease of 9.3% in comparison to the prior year period. This decrease was due to first quarter 2012 revenue declines in our attending physician statement ("APS") retrieval services and our Consumer Services as compared to the prior year period.

APS/PIL revenues totaled $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of 11.4% in comparison with the prior year period. This decrease in revenue is primarily due to a decline in the number of APS units performed during the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the prior year period. Revenue from Consumer Services totaled $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2012, a decline of 15.9% as compared to the prior year period. First quarter 2012 revenue from our underwriting services decreased 2.5%, as compared to the prior year period.

Key Financial and Other Metrics Monitored by Management

In our periodic reports filed with the SEC, we provide certain financial information and metrics about our service lines and information that our management uses in evaluating our performance and financial condition. Our objective in providing this information is to help our shareholders and investors generally understand our overall performance and assess the profitability of our service lines, and our prospects for future net cash flows.

In the first quarter of 2012, the metrics that we monitored included:

the number of paramedical examinations performed by Portamedic;

the average revenue per paramedical examination;

14




time service performance, from examination order to completion;

LIMRA (a life insurance industry research organization) which tracks the number of completed life insurance applications;

the number of health screenings completed by Health & Wellness;

the number of tele-interviewing/underwriting reports we generate;

the number of specimens tested by Heritage Labs;

the average revenue per specimen tested;

budget to actual performance at the branch level as well as in the aggregate; and

customer and product line margins.

Certain of the above-cited metrics are discussed in the comparative discussion and analysis of our results of operations that follows.

Revenues

Consolidated revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 were $38.8 million, a decline of $1.8 million, or 4.4%, from the prior year period.

Portamedic

Portamedic revenues in the first quarter of 2012 were $26.7 million, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 6.8%, compared to the prior year period. The decline in Portamedic revenues reflects the net impact of:

a decrease in paramedical examinations performed in the first quarter of 2012 of approximately 4.8% (317,000 in the first quarter of 2012, or 4,957 per day, vs. 333,000 in the first quarter of 2011, or 5,204 per day); and

a decrease in average revenue per paramedical examination in the first quarter of 2012 of approximately 2.4% as compared to the first quarter of 2011 ($83.53 in the first quarter of 2012 vs. $85.57 in the first quarter of 2011).


15



The reduction in Portamedic revenue in the first quarter 2012 was primarily due to a weak economy (and its negative impact on the customers we serve in the life insurance industry), a reduction in life insurance applications requiring a paramedical exam and steady pricing pressure in our Portamedic service line.  The number of Portamedic examinations declined 4.8% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the comparable prior year period. Examinations declined 6.5% in 2011 compared to 2010.

Heritage Labs

Heritage Labs revenues in the first quarter of 2012 were $3.7 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 2.0%, in comparison to the prior year period.

During the first quarter of 2012, revenue from lab testing (approximately 58% of total Heritage Labs revenue in the first quarter of 2012) declined 2.1% as compared to the prior year period. Heritage Labs tested 6.5% fewer specimens compared to the prior year period (129,000 in the first quarter of 2012 vs. 138,000 in the first quarter of 2011). Heritage Labs average revenue per specimen tested increased in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the prior year period ($16.73 in the first quarter of 2012 vs. $15.97 in the first quarter of 2011). Approximately 59% of this increase in average revenue per specimen tested was due to service price increases, and the remaining increase was the result of increased shipping costs passed on to our customers.

Revenue from lab kit assembly (approximately 42% of Heritage Labs revenue in the first quarter of 2012) increased 8.4% as compared to the prior year period.

Approximately 65% of total specimens tested by Heritage Labs originate from a Portamedic paramedical exam or a Health & Wellness screening.

Health & Wellness revenues in the first quarter of 2012 were $4.1 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 19.1%, compared to the prior year period. Health & Wellness performed approximately 75,000 health screenings in the first quarter of 2012, compared to 65,000 health screenings in the prior year period. Our revenue increase in the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the prior year period, is primarily attributable to the 15.4% increase in the number of screenings performed by Health & Wellness.

Hooper Holmes Services

Hooper Holmes Services revenues for the first quarter of 2012 were $5.0 million, a decrease of 9.3% from the prior year period.

Health Information Services revenue totaled $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 9.0%, compared to the prior period. Revenue from our APS retrieval and PIL decreased 11.4% to $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decrease of 13.7% in the number of units performed during the first quarter 2012 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in revenue due to the decline in units was offset, to some extent, by a 2.7% increase in the average price per unit in the first quarter 2012 as compared to the prior year period. Inspection and Motor Vehicle Report ("MVR") reporting revenue totaled $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2012 and was consistent with the prior year period.

Consumer Services includes our tele-underwriting/interviewing services. Revenues from Consumer Services for the first quarter of 2012 decreased 15.9% to $1.1 million as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to a decline in the number of tele-underwriting/interviewing units completed of 16.2% as compared to the first quarter 2011. The average price per unit for the first quarter 2012 was consistent with the prior year period.

Health Risk Analytics includes our risk management and underwriting services. Revenues decreased 2.5% in the first quarter of 2012 to $1.0 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decline in revenue from one of our larger customers.

Consolidated cost of operations as a percentage of revenues increased to 76.8% for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 compared to 73.0% for the comparable prior year period.

The increase in cost of operations as a percentage of revenues is due to Portamedic revenues declining at a rate greater than its associated costs as a significant percentage of costs in this service line are fixed and therefore, did not decrease as revenues declined.

Portamedic costs of operations was also impacted by the investments we made in this service line during 2011, largely our investment in the deployment and operating costs of netbooks used in the iParamed service offering. Additionally, Portamedic cost of operations was also impacted by increased examiner fees due to the Company's efforts to attract and retain quality medical professionals.

Hooper Holmes Services cost of operations increased as a percentage of revenues to 78.1% for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 from 75.2% for the comparable prior year period. This increase is also due to revenues declining at a rate greater than its associated costs, a significant component of which are fixed.

Consolidated SG&A expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 increased $0.6 million compared to the comparable period. The increase is primarily attributable to increases of:

Sales salaries and expenses totaling $0.2 million;
IT salaries, and implementation and training costs for our new Portamedic order processing system, totaling $0.4 million;
Health insurance costs and employee paid time off accrual totaling $0.2 million;
Depreciation expense associated with our new Portamedic order processing system totaling $0.2 million, and
System maintenance costs associated with our APS system and our previous Portamedic customer order processing system totaling $0.1 million.

17




These increases in SG&A were offset by reduced:

Incentive compensation expense totaling $0.3 million, and    
Administrative headcount reductions at Heritage Labs, totaling $0.2 million.
    
Restructuring

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we recorded restructuring charges of $0.62 million and $0.06 million, respectively. The restructuring charges for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 consisted primarily of severance costs and were primarily associated with our Portamedic service line. The restructuring charges for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 consisted primarily of severance and branch closure costs, and were associated with our Portamedic and Heritage Labs service lines.

Operating Loss/Income

Our consolidated operating loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $3.1 million, or 7.9% of consolidated revenues, compared to consolidated operating income for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 of $0.03 million, or 0.1% of consolidated revenues.

Other Income (Expense)
        
Interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $0.01 million compared to $0.02 million for the prior year period. This decrease is due to lower cash balances and a lower rate of return.

Other expense, net for both the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was a net expense of $0.1 million and primarily consisted of bank credit facility fees.

Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax expense of $0.02 million and $0.02 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, reflecting certain state tax liabilities. No federal or state tax benefits were recorded relating to the current or prior year loss, as we continue to believe that a full valuation allowance is required on our net deferred tax assets.
    
Net Loss

Loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $3.1 million, or $0.05 per share on both a basic and diluted basis, compared to a loss of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share on both a basic and diluted basis, in the same period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2012, our primary sources of liquidity are our holdings of cash and cash equivalents and revolving line of credit. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our working capital was $25.1 million and $28.3 million, respectively. Our current ratio as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was 2.9 to 1 and 3.5 to 1, respectively. Significant uses affecting our cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 include:

a net loss of $3.1 million, including non-cash charges of $1.0 million in depreciation and amortization expense and $0.1 million in share-based compensation expense;

capital expenditures of $1.0 million;

an increase in accounts receivable of $2.2 million, and

an increase in inventory of $0.3 million.

These uses of cash were partially offset by:

a combined net increase in accounts payable, accrued expense and other long-term liabilities of $1.4 million; and


18



a decrease in other assets of $0.7 million.

Loan and Security Agreement

On March 9, 2009, we entered into a three year Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with TD Bank, N.A. (“TD Bank”).

On December 1, 2010, we entered into the First Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "First Amendment") with TD Bank. Under the First Amendment, the Company has the ability, on or prior to the second anniversary of the First Amendment, and subject to a determination by our Board of Directors authorizing such a transaction, to repurchase up to $5 million of its capital stock out of Qualified Cash (as such term is defined in the First Amendment), provided no Default or Event of Default (as such terms are defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) shall have otherwise occurred. In addition, under the First Amendment, the maturity date of the Loan and Security Agreement has been extended by one year (to March 8, 2013 from March 8, 2012) and, commencing March 8, 2012 and at all times thereafter, the unused line fee (usage fee) under the Loan and Security Agreement will reduce from one percent (1%) per annum to one-half of one percent (1/2%) per annum, in each case on the difference between $15 million and the sum of the average daily outstanding principal balance of cash advances under the revolving credit line and the average daily aggregate undrawn portion of all outstanding letters of credit for the preceding month.

On February 25, 2011, we entered into the Second Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Second Amendment"). Under the Second Amendment, the maximum aggregate of our future purchase money indebtedness and capitalized lease obligations in respect of specific items of equipment was increased to $2.0 million from $0.25 million effective December 31, 2010. The Second Amendment also contains other customary representations, warranties, covenants and terms and conditions.

On February 29, 2012, we entered into the Third Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Third Amendment"). Under the Third Amendment, we are obligated to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a rolling 12 month basis of not less than 1.1 to 1.0 as of any fiscal quarter ending after September 30, 2011 if, for any one or more day(s) following any such fiscal quarter end, (a) the outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement is greater than $0 and (b) the amount of our cash on deposit with TD Bank is less than $6.0 million. The Third Amendment also contains other customary representations, warranties, covenants and terms and conditions.

The Loan and Security Agreement (as amended) provides us with a revolving line of credit, the proceeds of which are to be used for general working capital purposes.  Under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank has agreed to make revolving credit loans to us in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which, when combined with the aggregate undrawn amount of all unexpired letters of credit, does not exceed 85% of “Eligible Receivables” (as that term is defined in the Loan and Security Agreement), provided that in no event can the aggregate amount of the revolving credit loans and letters of credit outstanding at any time exceed $15 million.  The maximum aggregate face amount of letters of credit that may be outstanding at any time may not exceed $1.5 million.

Borrowings of revolving credit loans shall take the form of LIBOR rate advances with the applicable interest rate being the LIBOR rate, plus 3.5% per annum.

Through March 7, 2012, we were obligated to pay, on a monthly basis in arrears, an unused line fee (usage fee) equal to 1% per annum on the difference between $15 million and the average daily outstanding principal balance of cash advances under the revolving credit line plus the average daily aggregate undrawn portion of all outstanding letters of credit for the preceding month.  Effective March 8, 2012, the usage fee is one-half of one percent (1/2%) per annum. In addition, we are required to pay an annual loan fee of $0.1 million.  During the each of the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we incurred unused line fees of $0.04 million.

In December 2009, we opened a $0.1 million TD VISA credit card account to be used by Hooper Holmes Services medical records retrieval service line. The letter of credit and the credit card reduced our borrowing capacity under our revolving line of credit.  As of March 31, 2012, our borrowing capacity under the revolving line of credit totaled $14.9 million (which is 85% of Eligible Receivables) and there were no outstanding borrowings.

The revolving credit loans are payable in full, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, on the earlier of March 8, 2013 or the date of termination of the loan commitments, termination being one of the actions TD Bank may take upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  We may prepay any revolving credit loan, in whole or in part without penalty, with the amount of such prepayment available to be reborrowed, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Loan and Security Agreement (as amended).  We may also terminate the Loan and Security Agreement, provided that on the date of such termination all of its obligations are paid in full.  We are subject to a fee equal to $0.1 million upon early termination of the Loan and Security Agreement.

19




As security for our full and timely payment and other obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement, we granted TD Bank a security interest in all of our existing and after-acquired property and our subsidiary guarantors, including our receivables (which are subject to a lockbox account arrangement), inventory and equipment.  As further security, we granted TD Bank a mortgage lien encumbering our corporate headquarters.  The aforementioned security interest and mortgage lien are collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral”.

Pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank, in its sole discretion based upon its reasonable credit judgment, may (A) establish and change reserves required against Eligible Receivables, (B) change the advance rate against Eligible Receivables or the fair market value of our corporate headquarters, and (C) impose additional restrictions on the standards of eligibility for Eligible Receivables, any of which could reduce the aggregate amount of indebtedness that may be incurred under the Loan and Security Agreement.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability, and that of our subsidiaries, to:

pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem or retire any shares of any class of our capital stock or other equity interests;

incur additional indebtedness;

sell or otherwise dispose of any of our assets, other than in the ordinary course of business;

create liens on our assets;

enter into any sale and leaseback transactions; and

enter into transactions with any of our affiliates on other than an arm’s-length or no less favorable basis.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement), and as amended under the Third Amendment noted above, measured on a rolling 12 month basis of not less that 1.1 to 1.0 as of any fiscal quarter ending after September 30, 2011 if, for any one or more day(s) following any such fiscal quarter end, (a) the outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement is greater than $0 and (b) the amount of our cash on deposit with TD Bank is less than $6.0 million.  As of December 31, 2011, both because our cash on deposit with TD Bank exceeded $6.0 million and our outstanding balance of cash advances under the Loan and Security Agreement was $0, compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not applicable. However, if this covenant did apply, our Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio measured as specified in the Loan and Security Agreement as of December 31, 2011 was (4.9) to 1. As such, we would fail this financial covenant and therefore would have no borrowing capability under the terms of our Loan and Security Agreement.
  
Our failure or that of any subsidiary guarantor to comply with any of the covenants or the breach of any of our or their representations and warranties, contained in the Loan and Security Agreement, constitutes an Event of Default under the agreement.  In addition, the Loan and Security Agreement provides that “Events of Default” include the occurrence or failure of any event or condition that, in TD Bank’s sole judgment, could have a material adverse effect (i) on the our business, operations, assets, management, liabilities or condition, (ii) in the value of or the perfection or priority of TD Bank’s lien upon the Collateral, or (iii) on our ability and our subsidiary guarantors to perform under the Loan and Security Agreement.

The current challenging economic climate may lead to future reductions in revenues.  If revenues continue to decline compared to the prior year, operating losses may continue to occur, we may be required to take additional actions to further reduce costs and capital spending, and restructure operations.  This would also reduce our cash reserves. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that our current and future cost reduction actions will generate the cost savings necessary to offset declining revenues.  If we are unsuccessful in implementing additional cost reduction initiatives and/or if revenues continue to decline at levels similar to or worse than that experienced in 2011, we may fail to satisfy the financial covenant contained in the Loan and Security Agreement and therefore would be prohibited from borrowing under the Loan and Security Agreement.  Further, as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement, TD Bank may at its sole discretion request additional security, reduce availability or determine if negative events are Events of Default. These and other factors would adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to generate profits in the future.

20




Based on our anticipated level of future revenues, the cost reduction initiatives implemented to date, our existing cash, cash equivalents and unused borrowing capacity, we believe we have sufficient funds to meet our cash needs through March 31, 2013.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, net cash used in operating activities was $2.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
 
The net cash used in operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 of $2.4 million reflects a net loss of $3.1 million, including non-cash charges of $1.0 million of depreciation and amortization, and $0.1 million of share-based compensation expense. Changes in working capital included:

an increase in accounts receivable of $2.2 million. Our consolidated days sales outstanding (“DSO”), measured on a rolling 90-day basis, was 47.6 days at March 31, 2012, compared to 40.5 days at December 31, 2011 and 48.4 days at March 31, 2011. Historically, our accounts receivable balances and our DSO are at their lowest point in December as many of our customers utilize the remainder of their operating budgets before their year-end budget close-out. Historically, we experience an increase in DSO starting in the first quarter of each year, in comparison to the prior year-end DSO position. As has historically been the case, we believe our collection efforts will reduce our DSO over the remainder of the year. Our consolidated allowance for doubtful accounts, which includes a reserve for revenue reductions, declined approximately $0.01 million since December 31, 2011, resulting from write-offs of $0.04 million offset by an additional expense provision of $0.03 million;

a combined net increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities of $1.4 million;

an increase in inventories of $0.3 million; and

a decrease in other assets of $0.7 million.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2011, net cash used in operating activities was $1.0 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1.9 million in the prior year period.
 
The net cash used in operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 of $1.0 million reflects a net loss of $0.06 million and includes non-cash charges of $0.9 million of depreciation and amortization, and $0.1 million of share-based compensation expense. Changes in working capital included:

an increase in accounts receivable of $2.3 million. Our consolidated days sales outstanding (“DSO”), measured on a rolling 90-day basis, was 48.4 days at March 31, 2011, compared to 40.4 days at December 31, 2010 and 46.7 days at March 31, 2010. Our consolidated allowance for doubtful accounts, which includes a reserve for revenue reductions, declined approximately $0.1 million since December 31, 2010, of which approximately $0.09 million was reversed to revenue during the three month period ended March 31, 2011;

an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities of $0.4 million;

an increase in inventories of $0.2 million; and

a decrease in other assets of $0.2 million.

Cash Flows used in Investing Activities

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we used $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for capital expenditures related to the development of an IT system for processing customer orders, our new inventory management system and new Heritage Lab specimen analyzing equipment.

Cash Flows used in Financing Activities

The net cash used in financing activities for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 of $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, represents costs associated with our Loan and Security Agreement with TD Bank and a reduction in capital lease obligations.

21




Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Share Repurchases

We did not purchase any shares of our common stock during the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Dividends

No dividends were paid during the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. We are precluded from declaring or making any dividend payments or other distributions of assets with respect to any class of our equity securities under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement with TD Bank.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2012, there have been no material changes in contractual obligations as disclosed in Item 7 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, under the caption “Contractual Obligations”.

Inflation

Inflation has not had, nor is it expected to have, a material impact on our consolidated financial results.

Critical Accounting Policies

There were no changes to our critical accounting policies during the three month period ended March 31, 2012. Such policies are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

ITEM 3
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through our borrowing activities, which are described in Note 7 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and Item 2 of Part I included in this Report. Our credit facility is based on variable rates and is therefore subject to interest rate fluctuations. Accordingly, our interest expense will vary as a result of interest rate changes and the level of any outstanding borrowings. As of March 31, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding.

As of March 31, 2012, we have determined that there was no material market risk exposure to our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as of such date.


22



ITEM 4
Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of our disclosure committee, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2012. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2012, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 

23



PART II - Other Information

ITEM 1
Legal Proceedings

The Company is aware that a complaint was filed on April 23, 2012 in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging, among other things, that the Company had failed to pay overtime compensation to certain employees as required by federal law. The Company has not yet been served with the complaint. Based on a preliminary investigation, the Company believes the allegations are without merit and, if served, expects to defend the case vigorously.

The Company is a party to a number of other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business.  In the opinion of management, the Company has substantial legal defenses and/or insurance coverage with respect to all of its pending legal matters.  Accordingly, none of these actions is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, its consolidated results of operations or its consolidated financial position.

ITEM 1A
Risk Factors

Readers should carefully consider, in connection with the other information in this Report, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There are no material changes to such risk factors.
