NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of NCI, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“NCI” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As a result, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2012 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for these periods is unaudited. The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any future period. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in NCI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC.

2. Business Overview

NCI provides IT and professional services and solutions by leveraging our eight core service offerings: enterprise systems management; network engineering; cybersecurity and information assurance; software development and systems engineering; program management and lifecycle support; engineering and logistics; health IT and informatics; and training and simulation. The Company provides these services to U.S. Defense, Intelligence, and Federal Civilian agencies. The majority of the Company’s revenue was derived from contracts with the U.S. Federal Government, directly as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor. The Company primarily conducts business throughout the United States.

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share exclude dilution and are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted earnings per share include the incremental effect of stock options calculated using the treasury stock method. Shares that are anti-dilutive are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, approximately 2,903,000 and 111,000 shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, approximately 1,977,000 and 103,000 shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. The following details the historical computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (Class A and Class B) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, 20,000 shares of restricted stock vested from restricted stock grants issued in 2011.

The cost of stock compensation is included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income before, or in conjunction with, the vesting of options.

8. Debt

The Company’s senior credit facility, as amended in December 2010, is a revolving line of credit with a borrowing capacity of up to a $125.0 million principal amount. The credit facility also has a $50.0 million accordion feature allowing us to increase our borrowing capacity to up to a $175.0 million principal amount, subject to obtaining commitments for the incremental capacity from existing or new lenders. The outstanding borrowings are collateralized by a security interest in substantially all the Company’s assets. The lenders also require a direct assignment of all contracts at the lenders’ discretion. The outstanding balance under the credit facility accrues interest based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, ranging from 200 to 300 basis points, based on the ratio of our outstanding senior funded debt to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) as defined in the credit facility agreement. The credit facility expires on December 13, 2014.

The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to: incur or guarantee additional debt; make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments, including cash dividends on the Company’s outstanding common stock; enter into transactions with certain affiliates; create or permit certain liens; and consolidate, merge, or sell assets. In addition, the credit facility contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to: maintain a minimum tangible net worth; maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum funded debt to earnings ratio; and limit capital expenditures below certain thresholds.

8. Debt—continued

 

The credit facility allows us to use borrowings thereunder of up to $25 million to repurchase shares of our common stock. During the third quarter of 2011, we repurchased $4.5 million of our Class A common stock. No stock repurchases took place in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

During the second quarter of 2012, NCI had a weighted average outstanding loan balance of $42.8 million which accrued interest at a weighted average borrowing rate of 2.5%. During the second quarter of 2011, NCI had a weighted average outstanding loan balance of $80.9 million which accrued interest at a weighted average borrowing rate of 2.2%. During the first six months of 2012, NCI had a weighted average outstanding loan balance of $49.3 million which accrued interest at a weighted average borrowing rate of approximately 2.5%. During the first six months of 2011, NCI had a weighted average outstanding loan balance of $50.4 million which accrued interest at a weighted average borrowing rate of approximately 2.2%. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all its loan covenants.

As of June 30, 2012, the outstanding balance under the credit facility was $30.2 million and interest accrued at a rate of LIBOR plus 225 basis points, or 2.5%. As of December 31, 2011, the outstanding balance under the credit facility was $54.0 million and interest accrued at a rate of LIBOR plus 225 basis points, or 2.5%. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all of its loan covenants.

9. AdvanceMed Acquisition

On April 1, 2011, pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated February 24, 2011, NCI completed its purchase of 100% of the stock of AdvanceMed Corporation (AdvanceMed) from an affiliate of Computer Sciences Corporation. NCI acquired AdvanceMed to enhance the scope of its information technology and professional services, as well as to develop the Company’s data analytics and informatics practice.

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, NCI acquired AdvanceMed for $63.3 million in cash. The transaction was funded through cash on hand and borrowings of approximately $62.0 million under NCI’s senior credit facility. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting which requires the total purchase consideration to be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair value. The excess of the purchase consideration over the amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Total acquisition and integration related expenses were approximately $1.0 million and all were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2011.

9. AdvanceMed Acquisition, continued

 

Final Allocation of Purchase Price (in thousands)

The Company made an allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company obtains this information during due diligence and through other sources. In the periods after closing, as the Company obtains additional information about these assets and liabilities, including finalizing asset appraisals, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only information available for estimates as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company finalized the valuation of acquired intangible assets in connection with the AdvanceMed acquisition during the first quarter of 2012.

Estimated fair values of purchased assets and liabilities assumed:

 

Accounts receivable		$	12,701
Property and equipment			5,330
Definite-lived intangible assets			6,045
Other assets			421
Goodwill			43,742
Less liabilities assumed			(4,912	)
		$	63,327

The fair value of the definite-lived intangible asset for customer relationships is based on existing customer contracts and anticipated follow-on contracts with existing customers and is expected to have an 11 year life. Amortization of the definite-lived intangible asset for existing customer contracts and anticipated follow-on contracts with existing customers is based on an accelerated method.

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase consideration over the amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As a result of the election under Section 338(h) (10) of the Internal Revenue Code, the total amount allocated to intangible assets and goodwill for tax purposes is expected to be tax deductible.

10. Restructuring Charge (in thousands)

During December 2011, management committed to, implemented, and completed a restructuring plan. The restructuring was done to reduce costs through downsizing our existing work force and physical locations.

11. Related Party Transactions

The Company purchased services under a subcontract from Net Commerce Corporation, which is a Government contractor wholly-owned by Mr. Rajiv Narang, the son of Mr. Charles K. Narang, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

The Company rents office space from Gur Parsaad Properties, Ltd. which is controlled by Dr. Gurvinder Pal Singh. Dr. Singh was a member of NCI’s Board of Directors until June 9, 2010. The lease is for approximately 41,000 square feet at $15.00 per square foot with annual escalation and shared common area operating expenses. The lease expires on June 30, 2015.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. There are statements made herein, which may not address historical facts and, therefore, could be interpreted to be forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

•

Our dependence on our contracts with U.S. Federal Government agencies, particularly within the U.S. Department of Defense, for the majority our revenue; a change in funding of our contracts due to bid protests; changes in U.S. Federal Government spending priorities; changes in contract type, particularly changes from cost-plus fee or time-and-material type contracts to firm fixed-price type contracts

 

•

A reduction in the overall U.S. Defense budget, volatility in spending authorizations for Defense and Intelligence-related programs by the U.S. Federal Government or a shift in spending to programs in areas where we do not currently provide services

 

•

U.S. Federal Governmental shutdowns (such as the shutdown that occurred during the U.S. Federal Government’s 1996 fiscal year) and other potential delays in the U.S. Federal Government appropriations process, or budgetary cuts resulting from Congressional committee recommendations or automatic sequestration under the Budget Control Act of 2011)

 

•

Changes in U.S. Federal Government programs or requirements, including the increased use of small business providers

 

•

Failure to achieve contract awards in connection with recompetes for present business and/or competition for new business

 

•

U.S. Federal Government agencies more frequently awarding contracts on a technically acceptable/lowest cost basis in order to reduce expenditures

 

•

Adverse results of U.S. Federal Government audits of our government contracts

 

•

Competitive factors, such as pricing pressures and competition to hire and retain employees (particularly those with security clearances)

 

•

Failure to identify and successfully integrate future acquired companies or businesses into our operations or to realize any accretive or synergistic effects from such acquisitions, or effectively integrate acquisitions appropriate to the achievement of our strategic plans

 

•

Economic conditions in the United States, including conditions that result from terrorist activities or war

 

•

Material changes in policies, laws, or regulations applicable to our businesses, particularly legislation affecting (i) U.S. Federal Government contracts for services, (ii) outsourcing of activities that have been performed by the U.S. Federal Government, (iii) U.S. Federal Government contracts containing organizational conflict of interest clauses, (iv) delays related to agency specific funding freezes, and (v) competition for task orders under Government Wide Acquisition Contracts, agency-specific Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts and/or schedule contracts with the General Services Administration

 

•

U.S. Federal Government’s “insourcing” of previously contracted support services and the realignment of funds to non-defense related programs

 

•

Our ability to achieve the objectives of near-term or long-range business plans, particularly revenue growth

 

•

Risk of contract non-performance or termination

Some of these important factors are outlined under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the SEC, and from time to time, in other filings with the SEC, such as our Forms 8-K and 10-Q. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee our future results, level of activity, or performance. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

In this document, unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms “Company,” “NCI,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to NCI, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

Overview

We are a provider of information technology (IT) and professional engineering services and solutions to U.S. Federal Government agencies. Our technology and industry expertise enables us to provide a full spectrum of services and solutions that assist our customers in achieving their program goals. We deliver a wide range of complex services and solutions by leveraging our skills across eight core competencies.

 

•

Enterprise systems management

 

•

Network engineering

 

•

Cybersecurity and information assurance

 

•

Software development and systems engineering

 

•

Program management and lifecycle support

 

•

Engineering and logistics

 

•

Health IT and informatics

 

•

Training and simulation

We generate the majority of our revenue from U.S. Federal Government contracts. We report operating results and financial data as one operating segment. Revenue from our contracts and task orders is generally linked to trends in U.S. Federal Government spending by defense, intelligence, and U.S. Federal civilian agencies.

Key Financial Metrics

Prime Contractor Revenue

The following table shows our revenue derived from contracts on which we serve as a prime contractor.

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Six months ended June 30,
		2012				2011				2012				2011
Revenue derived from prime contracts			87	%			91	%			87	%			90	%

Customer Group Revenue

The following table shows our revenue from the client groups listed as a percentage of total revenue for the period shown.

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Six months ended June 30,
		2012				2011				2012				2011
Department of Defense and intelligence agencies			75	%			84	%			76	%			89	%
U.S. Federal civilian agencies			25	%			16	%			24	%			11	%

The increase in the percentage of total revenue earned on work for Federal civilian agencies was primarily due to our revenue earned on work for U.S Federal civilian agencies remaining fairly constant in absolute dollars combined with lower revenue earned on work for Federal Department of Defense and intelligence agencies.

Contract Type Revenue

Our services and solutions are provided under three types of contracts: time-and-materials; cost-plus fee; and firm fixed-price. Our contract mix varies from year to year due to numerous factors including our business strategies and U.S. Federal Government procurement objectives.

Table of Contents

The following table shows our revenue from each of these types of contracts as a percentage of our total revenue for the periods shown.

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Six months ended June 30,
		2012				2011				2012				2011
Time-and-materials			25	%			42	%			26	%			50	%
Cost-plus fee			51	%			33	%			51	%			23	%
Firm fixed-price			24	%			25	%			23	%			27	%

The increase in our revenue under cost-plus fee type contracts primarily resulted from the transition of our U.S. Army Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier contract from a time-and-materials type contract to a cost-plus fee type contract during the second quarter of 2011.

The amount of risk and potential reward varies under each type of contract. Under time-and-materials contracts, we are paid a fixed hourly rate by labor category. To the extent that our actual labor costs vary significantly from the negotiated hourly rates, we may generate more or less than the targeted amount of profit. We are typically reimbursed for other contract direct costs and expenses at our cost, and typically receive no fee on those costs. Under cost-plus fee contracts, there is limited financial risk, because we are reimbursed all our allowable costs, and therefore the profit margins tend to be lower on cost-plus fee contracts. Under firm fixed-price contracts, we perform specific tasks or provide specified goods for a predetermined price. Compared to time-and-materials and cost-plus fee contracts, firm fixed-price service contracts generally offer higher profit margin opportunities but involve greater financial risk because we would bear the impact of potential cost overruns in return for the full benefit of any cost savings. The majority of the services work we do under firm fixed-price service contracts is firm fixed-price level-of-effort work, which has a lower risk than firm fixed-price completion or deliverable contracts.

Contract Backlog

 

As of		Funded backlog				Total backlog
		(in millions)
June 30, 2012		$	196			$	825
December 31, 2011			220				1,001

We define backlog as our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts over the remaining base contract performance period and from the option periods of those contracts, assuming the exercise of all related options. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which funding currently is appropriated and obligated to us under a contract or other authorization for payment signed by an authorized purchasing agency, less the amount of revenue we have previously recognized. Our backlog does not include any estimate of future potential delivery orders that might be awarded under our Government Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) or other multiple-award contract vehicles. Additional information on how we determine backlog is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC.

Other Significant Financial Events

AdvanceMed Acquisition

On April 1, 2011, pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated February 24, 2011, we completed our purchase of 100% of the stock of AdvanceMed from an affiliate of Computer Sciences Corporation. NCI acquired AdvanceMed to enhance the scope of our information technology and professional services in general and to develop our data analytics and informatics practice.

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we acquired AdvanceMed for $63.3 million in cash. The transaction was funded through cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facility.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the Purchase method of accounting which requires the total purchase consideration to be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair value. The excess of the purchase consideration over the amounts assigned to tangible or intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2011

The following table sets forth certain items from our consolidated statements of income and expresses each item in dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the periods indicated:

Revenue

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, total revenue decreased by 43.4%, or $70.0 million, over the same period a year ago. This decrease in revenue was primarily due to the ending of our Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) and U.S. Air Force’s Network Centric Solutions (NETCENTS) contracts, which collectively accounted for $36.3 million of the decline in revenue year-over-year. Our PEO Soldier program decreased $5.7 million year-over-year mostly due to the change in contract type. During the second quarter of 2012, our PEO Soldier program accounted for 16.8% of our revenue as compared with 13.0% of our revenue for the same period during 2011.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue decreased 44.9%, or $65.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period a year ago. The decrease was attributable to decreases in direct labor and associated indirect costs and hardware and product related expenses associated with the ending of our BRAC and NETCENTS contracts. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 88.1% and 90.4% for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The 2.3% decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue resulted from a decrease in lower-margin BRAC and NETCENTS material costs and direct labor costs for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011, and from losses incurred on two unrelated fixed-price contracts that contributed to the cost of revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased 4.2%, or $0.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to higher stock compensation expense and the timing of certain accrued expenses.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $1.7 and $1.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to reduced amortization expense of intangible assets associated with prior acquisitions.

Acquisition and integration related expenses

On April 1, 2011, we completed the acquisition of AdvanceMed. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, acquisition expenses were $0.7 million principally consisting of accounting, legal and investment banking fees. There were no acquisition related costs for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Operating income

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, operating income was $2.9 million, or 3.1% of revenue, as compared to $6.9 million, or 4.3% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Operating income was lower in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 due to lower labor-related profit margin on the PEO Soldier program, and higher indirect costs as a percentage of revenue.

Interest Expense, net

Net interest expense was approximately $0.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to net interest expense of $0.5 million for the corresponding quarter during 2011. The decrease was primarily attributed to a lower overall weighted average loan balance, offset slightly by a higher weighted average borrowing rate.

Income taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the decrease in income taxes of $1.5 million was the result of the decrease in pretax income, partially offset by a slightly higher effective income tax rate. The effective income tax rate was approximately 40.6% and 39.7% for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was the result of an increase in the blended state rate from our current state revenue allocation of our subsidiaries.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2011

The following table sets forth certain items from our consolidated statements of income and expresses each item in dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the periods indicated:

Revenue

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, total revenue decreased 38.9%, or $121.2 million, over the same period a year ago. This decrease in revenue was primarily due to the ending of our BRAC and NETCENTS contracts in 2011 which collectively accounted for $63.7 million of the decrease in revenue year-over-year. Our PEO Soldier program decreased $14.6 million in revenue year-over-year. These decreases were partially offset by revenue from our acquisition of AdvanceMed in 2011. During the first six months of 2012, our PEO Soldier program accounted for 17.7% of our revenue as compared with 15.5% of our revenue for the same period during 2011. The increase was due to our top line revenue year over year decreasing more than the dollar decrease in the PEO Soldier program year over year.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue decreased 39.9%, or $111.2 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period a year ago. The decrease was attributable to decreases in direct labor and associated indirect costs, subcontractor labor costs, and hardware and product related costs due to the decrease in revenue primarily associated with the ending of our BRAC and NETCENTS contracts in 2011. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 88.2% and 89.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The 1.4% decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is due to decreases in lower-margin BRAC and NETCENTS material costs, subcontractor labor costs and direct labor costs, and from losses incurred on two unrelated fixed-price contracts that contributed to the cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased 10.5%, or $1.2 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to general and administrative expenses associated with programs resulting from the acquisition of AdvanceMed, and higher stock compensation expense.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $3.5 and $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase was primarily associated with the AdvanceMed acquisition which included significant property and equipment and purchased identified intangible assets.

Acquisition and integration related expenses

On April 1, 2011, we completed the acquisition of AdvanceMed. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, acquisition expenses were $0.9 million, principally consisting of accounting, legal and investment banking fees. There were no acquisition-related costs for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Operating income

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, operating income was $6.0 million, or 3.1% of revenue, as compared to $16.6 million, or 5.3% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Operating income was lower in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 due to lower labor-related profit margin on the PEO Soldier program, and higher indirect costs as a percentage of revenue.

Interest expense, net

Net interest expense was approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and approximately $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributed to a higher weighted average borrowing rate on a slightly lower weighted average loan.

Income taxes

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, income taxes decreased to $2.1 million from $6.4 million on a lower pretax income and a higher effective tax rate. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was approximately 40.6% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 39.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The higher effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was the result of an increase in the blended state rate from our current state revenue allocation of our subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs are for financing working capital, capital expenditures, and making selective strategic acquisitions. Historically, we have relied primarily on our cash flow from operations and borrowings under our credit facility to provide the capital for our liquidity needs. As part of our growth strategy, we may pursue acquisitions that could require us to incur additional debt or issue new equity. We expect the combination of our current cash, cash flow from operations, and the available borrowing capacity under our credit facility to continue to meet our normal working capital and capital expenditure requirements.

The balance of accounts receivable decreased by $28.5 million to $66.6 million at the end of the second quarter 2012, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. Days sales outstanding of accounts receivable (DSO) decreased to 66 days as of June 30, 2012 down 10 days from the 76 days reported as of December 31, 2011. The decrease in DSO is associated with the collection of receivables outstanding from 2011 that had been delayed by the adjudication and payment of award fees on several contracts, as well as the timing of certain milestone payments for certain fixed price contracts.

Our Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase up to $25.0 million of our Class A common stock pursuant to a stock repurchase program. If shares are repurchased, the shares will be repurchased pursuant to open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or block transactions. We have no obligation to repurchase shares under the authorization, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares which are repurchased (and the manner of any such repurchase) will be at the discretion of management and will depend on a number of factors, including the price of our common stock, an increase in the Company’s cash needs, a decrease in the Company’s available cash, borrowing capacity under our credit facility, interest rates, and the Company’s financial performance and position. We may suspend or discontinue repurchases at any time. During the third quarter of 2011, we repurchased $4.5 million of our Class A common stock. No stock repurchases took place in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Credit Facility: Our senior credit facility is a revolving line of credit with a borrowing capacity of up to $125.0 million principal amount. The credit facility also has a $50.0 million accordion feature allowing us to increase our borrowing capacity to up to $175.0 million principal amount, subject to obtaining commitments for the incremental capacity from existing or new lenders. The outstanding balance under the credit facility accrues interest based on one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin (spread), ranging from 200 to 300 basis points, based on the amount of our outstanding senior debt to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) as defined in the credit facility agreement. The accrued interest is due and payable monthly. The outstanding borrowings are collateralized by a security interest in substantially all the Company’s assets. The lenders also require a direct assignment of all contracts at the lenders’ discretion. The credit facility expires on December 13, 2014. We do not currently hedge our interest rate risk. The credit facility allows us to use borrowings thereunder of up to $25 million to repurchase shares of our common stock.

Table of Contents

Funds borrowed under the credit facility will be used to finance possible future acquisitions, and for working capital requirements, stock repurchases, and general corporate uses. As of June 30, 2012, there was $30.2 million due under the credit facility, reflecting net repayments of $23.8 million during 2012.

The loan interest accrual rate is set monthly at one-month LIBOR plus a set amount (spread). As discussed above, one of the primary factors determining the spread is the ratio of our outstanding senior debt to EBITDA adjusted for acquisitions and other factors. The lower our ratio, the lower our spread above LIBOR will be As of June 30, 2012, the spread above LIBOR was 225 basis points and thus, the loan accrued interest at 2.5%.

The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to: incur or guarantee additional debt; make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments, including cash dividends on the Company’s outstanding common stock; enter into transactions with certain affiliates; create or permit certain liens; and consolidate, merge, or sell assets. In addition, the credit facility contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to: maintain a minimum tangible net worth; maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum funded debt to earnings ratio; and limit capital expenditures below certain thresholds.

As of June 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all our loan covenants.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to our Critical Accounting Policies during the first six months of 2012. Refer to our Critical Accounting Policies section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the SEC.

 

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates for borrowings under our credit facility. A change of 1% in interest rates would have changed our interest expense and cash flow by approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, and approximately $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Additionally, we are subject to credit risks associated with our cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. We believe that the concentration of credit risk with respect to cash equivalents is limited due to the high credit quality of these investments. Our investment policy requires that we invest excess cash in high-quality investments which preserve principal, provide liquidity, and minimize investment risk. We believe that our credit risk associated with accounts receivable is limited as they are primarily with the U.S. Federal Government or prime contractors working for the U.S. Federal Government.

 

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management carried out an evaluation, as of June 30, 2012, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon the evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
