THE MANAGEMENT NETWORK GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. Basis of Reporting

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of The Management Network Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“TMNG,” “TMNG Global,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) as of September 29, 2012, and for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011 are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of these dates and for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Consequently, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements nor those normally made in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, reference should be made to the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, included in the 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2011 Form 10-K”) for additional disclosures, including a summary of the Company’s accounting policies. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through the date these unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 29, 2012.

 

Revenue Recognition — The Company recognizes revenue from time and materials consulting contracts in the period in which its services are performed. In addition to time and materials contracts, the Company's other types of contracts include fixed fee contracts. The Company recognizes revenues on milestone or deliverables-based fixed fee contracts and time and materials contracts not to exceed contract price using the percentage of completion-like method described by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605-35, "Revenue Recognition — Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts". For fixed fee contracts where services are not based on providing deliverables or achieving milestones, the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the period during which such services are expected to be performed. In connection with some fixed fee contracts, the Company may receive payments from customers that exceed revenues up to that point in time. The Company records the excess of receipts from customers over recognized revenue as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue is classified as a current liability to the extent it is expected to be earned within twelve months from the date of the balance sheet.

 

The Company develops, installs and supports customer software in addition to the provision of traditional consulting services. The Company recognizes revenue in connection with its software sales agreements utilizing the percentage of completion-like method prescribed by FASB ASC 605-35. These agreements include software right-to-use licenses ("RTU's") and related customization and implementation services. Due to the long-term nature of software implementation and the extensive software customization based on normal customer specific requirements, both the RTU’s and implementation services are treated as a single element for revenue recognition purposes.

 

The FASB ASC 605-35 percentage-of-completion-like methodology involves recognizing revenue using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the longer term nature of these projects, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, and the impact of delayed performance. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, we revise our cost and revenue estimates, which may result in increases or decreases in revenues and costs, and such revisions are reflected in income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known.

 

In addition to the professional services related to the customization and implementation of software, the Company also provides post-contract support ("PCS") services, including technical support and maintenance services. For those contracts that include PCS service arrangements which are not essential to the functionality of the software solution, the Company separates the FASB ASC 605-35 software services and PCS services utilizing the multiple-element arrangement model prescribed by FASB ASC 605-25, "Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements". FASB ASC 605-25 addresses the accounting treatment for an arrangement to provide the delivery or performance of multiple products and/or services where the delivery of a product or system or performance of services may occur at different points in time or over different periods of time. The Company utilizes FASB ASC 605-25 to separate the PCS service elements and allocate total contract consideration to the contract elements based on the relative fair value of those elements utilizing PCS renewal terms as evidence of fair value. Revenues from PCS services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term of the support and maintenance agreement.

 

Fair Value Measurement — For cash and cash equivalents, current trade receivables and current trade payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items.

 

The Company utilizes the methods of fair value measurement as described in FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” to value its financial assets and liabilities. As defined in FASB ASC 820, fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets and liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

6
 

 

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to level 3 inputs.

 

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

 

Research and Development and Software Development Costs – During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, software development costs of $80,000 and $420,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, software development costs of $142,000 and $427,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. No software development costs were capitalized during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation — TMNG Europe Ltd., Cartesian Ltd. and the international operations of Cambridge Strategic Management Group, Inc. conduct business primarily denominated in their respective local currency, which is their functional currency. Assets and liabilities have been translated to U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses have been translated at exchange rates which approximate the average of the rates prevailing during each period. Translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from foreign currency translation adjustments totaled $4.0 million and $4.3 million, respectively, as of September 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and is included in Total Stockholders’ Equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Assets and liabilities denominated in other than the functional currency of a subsidiary are re-measured at rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. Resulting gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s results of operations. Realized and unrealized exchange gains and losses included in the results of operations were not significant during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments – As of September 29, 2012, the Company had one open foreign currency forward contract.  This forward contract provides an economic hedge against fluctuations in exchange rates between the British pound and Euro denominated accounts receivables, but has not been designated as a hedge for accounting purposes. This contract, with a notional amount of $290,000 at September 29, 2012, expires on December 28, 2012. The Company utilizes valuation models for this forward contract that rely exclusively on Level 2 inputs, as defined by the FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The change in fair value of foreign currency forward contracts was not material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per ShareThe Company calculates and presents earnings (loss) per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes treasury shares held by the Company. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased for dilutive securities.

 

In accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 260, "Earnings per Share," the Company uses the treasury stock method for calculating the dilutive effect of employee stock options. These instruments will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the respective period's average market value of the underlying Company common stock exceeds the assumed proceeds. In applying the treasury stock method, assumed proceeds include the amount, if any, the employee must pay upon exercise, the amount of compensation cost for future services that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits, if any, that would be credited to additional paid-in capital assuming exercise of the options and the vesting of nonvested shares. The Company has excluded the effect of 497,888 stock options in the calculation of diluted income per share for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, the Company has not included the effect of stock options and non-vested shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share as it reported a net loss for these periods and the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement – Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The guidance seeks further convergence of the fair value recognition standards between U.S GAAP and that of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The ASU contains clarification of certain terminology to match the guidance provided by the IFRS standard, but also provides more specific guidance related to the treatment of premiums or discounts in the measurement of fair value, among other guidance, as well as prescribes additional disclosure requirements, including the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets or liabilities that are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet, but yet have fair value disclosure requirements. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05,Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements by removing the existing options available for the presentation of comprehensive income but rather requiring comprehensive income to be reported in either a separate continuous statement of comprehensive income or in a two statement presentation format that would highlight the components of income as the first statement and then a separate but yet consecutive statement presenting the components and totals of comprehensive income. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, which indefinitely defers the effective date of certain provisions under ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The amendments in ASU 2011-12 defer the requirement under ASU 2011-05 to present reclassification adjustments by component in both the statement where net income is presented and the statement where other comprehensive income is presented. This deferral was prompted by constituents’ concerns that the presentation requirements would be costly to implement and could add unnecessary complexity to financial statements. All other requirements in ASU 2011-05 remain effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company currently presents comprehensive income in accordance with this standard.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The ASU includes changes to the accounting guidance for the purpose of simplifying the approach to test goodwill for impairment. The guidance allows an entity to first assess whether facts or circumstances at an interim date indicate that there is greater than 50% likelihood that a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. If the totality of the facts and circumstances, in management’s judgment, do not result in greater than 50% likelihood, the goodwill impairment testing need not be performed. Likewise, the guidance also allows for entities to perform the goodwill impairment test at an interim date without considering the qualitative facts and circumstances that, when taken together, may indicate that a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. The amendment is effective for goodwill impairment tests performed for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets

 

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

 

   North         
   America   EMEA   Total   
Balance as of December 31, 2011  $3,947   $4,048   $7,995 
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates   -    176    176 
                
Balance as of September 29, 2012  $3,947   $4,224   $8,171 

 

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on the last day of the first fiscal month of the fourth quarter and whenever events or circumstances indicate that these assets may be impaired. The Company performs its impairment testing for goodwill in accordance with FASB ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” Management determined that there were no events or changes in circumstances during the thirteen or thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 which indicated that goodwill needed to be tested for impairment during the period.

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets might not be recoverable in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” Management determined that there were no events or changes in circumstances during the thirteen or thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 which indicated that long-lived assets and intangible assets needed to be reviewed for impairment during the period.

 

3. Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company issues stock option awards and non-vested share awards under its share-based compensation plans. The key provisions of the Company's share-based compensation plans are described in Note 5 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 2011 Form 10-K.

4. Business Segments and Major Customers

 

The Company identifies its segments based on the way management organizes the Company to assess performance and make operating decisions regarding the allocation of resources. In accordance with the criteria in FASB ASC 280 "Segment Reporting," the Company has concluded it has two reportable segments: the North America segment and the EMEA segment. The North America segment is comprised of three operating segments (North America Cable and Broadband, North America Telecom and Strategy), which are aggregated into one reportable segment based on the similarity of their economic characteristics. The EMEA segment is a single reportable, operating segment that encompasses the Company’s operational, technology and software consulting services outside of North America. Both reportable segments offer management consulting, custom developed software, and technical services.

 

Management evaluates segment performance based upon income (loss) from operations, excluding share-based compensation (benefits), depreciation and intangibles amortization. There were no inter-segment revenues during the thirteen or thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 while inter-segment revenues during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 were approximately $74,000 and $753,000, respectively. In addition, in its administrative division, entitled “Not Allocated to Segments,” the Company accounts for non-operating activity and the costs of providing corporate and other administrative services to all the segments. Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following table (amounts in thousands):

Revenues from the Company’s ten most significant customers accounted for approximately 82.4% and 81.7% of revenues during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, respectively. Revenues from the Company’s ten most significant customers accounted for approximately 83.5% and 83.4% of revenues during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, respectively.

 

5. Income Taxes

 

In the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $30,000 and $90,000, respectively.  In the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $30,000 and $90,000, respectively. The tax provisions for both the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011 are due to deferred taxes recognized on intangible assets amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes. The Company has reserved all of its domestic and international net deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance as of September 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes," which requires an estimation of the recoverability of the recorded income tax asset balances. As of September 29, 2012, the Company has recorded $33.9 million of valuation allowances attributable to its net deferred tax assets.

 

The Company analyzes its uncertain tax positions pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” There was no material activity related to the liability for uncertain tax positions during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, and the Company has determined it does not have any material uncertain tax positions for which to reserve at September 29, 2012.

 

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004. As of September 29, 2012, the Company has no income tax examinations in process.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

 

On January 10, 2012, Richard P. Nespola, the Company’s former chief executive officer, former chairman of the board and a former member of the Company’s Board of Directors, filed an action, Richard P. Nespola v. The Management Network Group, Inc., against the Company with the American Arbitration Association. In the action, Mr. Nespola claims the Company breached his employment agreement and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by: (i) improperly deciding not to renew his employment agreement, and (ii) subsequently deciding to terminate his employment for cause. Further, Mr. Nespola claims the Company defamed him by publishing to the Board of Directors of the Company allegedly false reasons for terminating his employment for cause. Mr. Nespola seeks in excess of $1.6 million in damages plus attorneys’ fees and costs. TMNG denies Mr. Nespola’s allegations, does not believe the action has any merit, and intends to defend against it vigorously. The proceeding is at a preliminary stage and the Company is unable to reasonably estimate any possible loss or range of possible loss given the current status of the arbitration and given the inherent uncertainty in predicting any future judicial or arbitration decision or other resolution of the proceeding.

  

In addition, the Company may become involved in various legal and administrative actions arising in the normal course of business. These could include actions brought by taxing authorities challenging the employment status of consultants utilized by the Company. In addition, future customer bankruptcies could result in additional claims on collected balances for professional services near the bankruptcy filing date. The resolution of any of such actions, claims, or the matters described above may have an impact on the financial results for the period in which they occur.

 

During fiscal year 2009, the Company entered into an agreement under which it had a commitment to purchase a minimum of $401,000 in computer software over a three year period. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had an obligation of $21,000 remaining under this commitment which was completely satisfied during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2012. During the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2012, this purchase agreement was renewed. Under the renewal, the Company has a commitment to purchase a minimum of $285,000 in computer software over a three year period ending in the first quarter of fiscal year 2015. As of September 29, 2012, the Company has an obligation of $238,000 remaining under this commitment.

 

During fiscal year 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase telecommunications equipment in the amount of $99,000 over a three year period. As of September 29, 2012, the Company has an obligation of $41,000 remaining under this commitment.

The following should be read in connection with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

 

OVERVIEW

 

TMNG is among the leading providers of professional services and technical solutions to the global leaders in the communications, digital media, and technology industries. We offer a fully integrated suite of consulting offerings including strategy, organizational development, knowledge management, marketing, operational, and technology consulting services. We have consulting experience with almost all major aspects of managing a global communications company. Our portfolio of solutions includes proprietary methodologies and toolsets, deep industry experience, and hands-on operational expertise and licensed software. These solutions assist clients in tackling complex business problems.

 

Our global investments in targeting the cable industry have re-positioned us to better serve consolidating telecommunications carriers and the converging global media and entertainment companies. The convergence of communications with media and entertainment, the pace of technological change in the sector, and the consolidation of large telecommunications carriers have required us to focus our strategy on serving our clients in both North America and European markets, continuing to expand our offerings with software products and strengthening our position within the large carriers and media and entertainment companies. Subject to the effects of cyclical economic conditions, our efforts are helping us build what we believe is a more sustainable revenue model over the long-term, which will enable us to expand our global presence. We continue to focus our efforts on identifying, adapting to and capitalizing on the changing dynamics prevalent in the converging communications, media and entertainment industries, as well as providing our wireless and IP services within the communications sector.

 

Our financial results are affected by macroeconomic conditions, credit market conditions, and the overall level of business confidence. Economic volatility has continued to impact our customer base and has resulted in continued higher levels of unemployment, and significant employee layoffs and reductions in capital and operating expenditures for some of our significant clients in the communications, media and entertainment sectors. We are also experiencing greater pricing pressure and an increased need for enhanced return on investment for projects or added sharing of risk and reward.

 

Revenues are driven by the ability of our team to secure new project contracts and deliver those projects in a way that adds value to our clients in terms of return on investment or assisting clients to address a need or implement change. For the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012, revenues decreased by approximately 17.7% from the prior year quarter to $12.7 million. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, revenues decreased 19.1% to $40.1 million from $49.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 driven primarily by our North America segment due to the completion of a few significant Tier 1 client engagements, a decrease in software licensing revenues and a general reduction in overall project volumes. Our international revenues were approximately 29.3% of total revenues for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 as compared to 26.8% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Our revenues are denominated in multiple currencies and may be impacted by currency rate fluctuations.

Generally our client relationships begin with a short-term consulting engagement utilizing a few consultants. Our sales strategy focuses on building long-term relationships with both new and existing clients to gain additional engagements within existing accounts and referrals for new clients. Strategic alliances with other companies are also used to sell services. We anticipate that we will continue to pursue these marketing strategies in the future. The volume of work performed for specific clients may vary from period to period and a major client from one period may not use our services or the same volume of services in another period. In addition, clients generally may end their engagements with little or no penalty or notice. If a client engagement ends earlier than expected, we must re-deploy professional service personnel as any resulting non-billable time could harm margins.

 

Cost of services consists primarily of compensation for consultants who are employees as well as fees paid to independent contractor organizations and related expense reimbursements. Employee compensation includes certain non-billable time, training, vacation time, benefits and payroll taxes. Gross margins are primarily impacted by the type of consulting services provided; the size of service contracts and negotiated discounts; changes in our pricing policies and those of competitors; utilization rates of consultants and independent subject matter experts; and employee and independent contractor costs, which tend to be higher in a competitive labor market.

 

Gross margins were 37.6% in the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, flat with the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. In general, the most significant items that impact our margins include the mix of project types, utilization of personnel and competitive pricing decisions, including volume discounts.

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel salaries, bonuses, and related costs for direct client sales efforts and marketing staff. We primarily use a relationship sales model in which partners, principals and senior consultants generate revenues. In addition, sales and marketing expenses include costs associated with marketing collateral, product development, trade shows and advertising. General and administrative expenses consist mainly of costs for accounting, recruiting and staffing, information technology, personnel, insurance, rent and outside professional services incurred in the normal course of business.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to $6.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to $20.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 decreased from the comparable 2011 periods primarily due to proactive measures to lower salary and other personnel related costs and a reduction in travel and entertainment expenditures during the periods to better align the cost structure with our customer base and core revenue generating activities. We continue to evaluate selling, general and administrative expenses in an effort to maintain an appropriate cost structure relative to revenue levels.

 

There was no intangible asset amortization included in operating expenses during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to $496,000 during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. The decrease in amortization expense was due to the completion of amortization of all intangibles recorded in connection with our acquisitions of Cartesian Ltd and RVA Consulting LLC.

  

We recorded net income of $0.1 million and a net loss $1.5 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, respectively, compared to net losses of $0.8 million and $3.0 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, respectively. The rate of change in the communications industry, driving convergence of media and telecommunications, consolidation of smaller providers and expanded deployment of wireless capabilities have added both opportunity and uncertainty for our clients. The general result is overall reduced client spending on many capital and operational initiatives. This reduction in spending, coupled with increased competition pursuing fewer opportunities, could result in further price reductions, fewer client projects, under-utilization of consultants, reduced operating margins and loss of market share. Declines in our revenues can have a significant impact on our financial results. Although we have a flexible cost base comprised primarily of employee and related costs, there is a lag in time required to scale the business appropriately if revenues are reduced. In addition, our future revenues and operating results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the number, size and scope of projects in which we are engaged, the contractual terms and degree of completion of such projects, any delays incurred in connection with a project, consultant utilization rates, general economic conditions and other factors.

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.6 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 due primarily to operating activities, including changes in working capital and negative cash flow from operations. At September 29, 2012, we had working capital of approximately $17.9 million. Working capital decreased by $0.9 million from December 31, 2011 due primarily to operating losses.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

While the selection and application of any accounting policy may involve some level of subjective judgments and estimates, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to our condensed consolidated financial statements, potentially involve the most subjective judgments in their selection and application, and are the most susceptible to uncertainties and changing conditions:

 

  Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets;

 

  Revenue Recognition;

 

  Accounting for Income Taxes; and

 

  Research and Development and Software Development Costs.

 

Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets — As of September 29, 2012, we had $8.2 million in goodwill, which is subject to periodic review for impairment. FASB ASC 350 "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other" requires an evaluation of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate that such assets may be impaired. The evaluation is conducted at the reporting unit level and compares the calculated fair value of the reporting unit to its book value to determine whether impairment has been deemed to occur. As of September 29, 2012, we have approximately $4.0 million and $4.2 million in goodwill allocated to the North America Telecom and EMEA reporting units, respectively. Any impairment charge would be based on the most recent estimates of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill. If the remaining book value assigned to goodwill in an acquisition is higher than the estimated fair value of the reporting unit, there is a requirement to write down these assets.

 

Fair value of our reporting units is determined using a combination of the income approach and the market approach. The income approach uses a reporting unit's projection of estimated cash flows discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital analysis that reflects current market conditions. We also consider the market approach to valuing our reporting units utilizing revenue and EBITDA multiples. We compare the results of our overall enterprise valuation as determined by the combination of the two approaches to our market capitalization. Significant management judgments related to these approaches include:

 

  Anticipated future cash flows and terminal value for each reporting unit — The income approach to determining fair value relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows, including an estimate of terminal value. The projections use management's estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including growth rates in revenues and estimates of expected changes in operating margins. Our projections of future cash flows are subject to change as actual results are achieved that differ from those anticipated. Because management frequently updates its projections, we would expect to identify on a timely basis any significant differences between actual results and recent estimates.

 

12
 

 

  Selection of an appropriate discount rate — The income approach requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is based on a weighted average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is affected by changes in short-term interest rates and long-term yields as well as variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants. The discount rate is determined based on assumptions that would be used by marketplace participants, and for that reason, the capital structure of selected marketplace participants was used in the weighted average cost of capital analysis. Given the current volatile economic conditions, it is possible that the discount rate will fluctuate in the near term.

  

  Selection of an appropriate multiple – The market approach requires the selection of an appropriate multiple to apply to revenues or EBITDA based on comparable guideline company or transaction multiples. It is often difficult to identify companies or transactions with a similar profile in regards to revenue, geographic operations, risk profile and other factors.  Given the current volatile economic conditions, it is possible that multiples of guideline companies will fluctuate in the near term.

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment," we use our best estimates based upon reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections to review for impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our assets might not be recoverable.

 

Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenues from time and materials consulting contracts in the period in which our services are performed. We recognized $4.4 million and $7.2 million in revenues from time and materials contracts during the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively.  We recognized $14.8 million and $23.1 million in revenues from time and materials contracts during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively. In addition to time and materials contracts, our other types of contracts include fixed fee contracts. We recognize revenues on milestone or deliverables-based fixed fee contracts and time and materials contracts not to exceed contract price using the percentage of completion-like method described by FASB ASC 605-35, "Revenue Recognition — Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts." For fixed fee contracts where services are not based on providing deliverables or achieving milestones, we recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the period during which such services are expected to be performed. During both thirteen week periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recognized $8.3 million in revenues on fixed fee contracts. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recognized $25.3 million and $26.4 million in revenues on fixed fee contracts, respectively. In connection with some fixed fee contracts, we receive payments from customers that exceed recognized revenues. We record the excess of receipts from customers over recognized revenue as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue is classified as a current liability to the extent it is expected to be earned within twelve months from the date of the balance sheet.

 

We also develop, install and support customer software in addition to our traditional consulting services. We recognize revenues in connection with our software sales agreements utilizing the percentage of completion-like method described in FASB ASC 605-35. These agreements include software right-to-use licenses ("RTU's") and related customization and implementation services. Due to the long-term nature of software implementation and the extensive software customization based on normal customer specific requirements, both the RTU’s and implementation services are treated as a single element for revenue recognition purposes.

  

The FASB ASC 605-35 percentage-of-completion-like methodology involves recognizing revenue using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the longer term nature of these projects, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, and the impact of delayed performance. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, we revise our cost and revenue estimates, which may result in increases or decreases in revenues and costs, and such revisions are reflected in income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known.

 

In addition to the professional services related to the customization and implementation of software, we also provide post-contract support ("PCS") services, including technical support and maintenance services. For those contracts that include PCS service arrangements which are not essential to the functionality of the software solution, we separate the FASB ASC 605-35 software services and PCS services utilizing the multiple-element arrangement model prescribed by FASB ASC 605-25, "Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements". FASB ASC 605-25 addresses the accounting treatment for an arrangement to provide the delivery or performance of multiple products and/or services where the delivery of a product or system or performance of services may occur at different points in time or over different periods of time. We utilize FASB ASC 605-25 to separate the PCS service elements and allocate total contract consideration to the contract elements based on the relative fair value of those elements utilizing PCS renewal terms as evidence of fair value. Revenues from PCS services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term of the support and maintenance agreement.

 

Accounting for Income Taxes — Accounting for income taxes requires significant estimates and judgments on the part of management. Such estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, the effective tax rate anticipated to apply to tax differences that are expected to reverse in the future, the sufficiency of taxable income in future periods to realize the benefits of net deferred tax assets and net operating losses currently recorded and the likelihood that tax positions taken in tax returns will be sustained on audit. We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes." As required by FASB ASC 740, we record deferred tax assets or liabilities based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using currently enacted rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. FASB ASC 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. As of September 29, 2012, cumulative valuation allowances in the amount of $33.9 million were recorded in connection with the net deferred income tax assets. As required by FASB ASC 740, we have performed a comprehensive review of our portfolio of uncertain tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by the guidance. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740, an uncertain tax position represents our expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return, or planned to be taken in a future tax return, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. As of September 29, 2012, we have no recorded liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

 

13
 

 

We have generated substantial deferred income tax assets related to our domestic operations, and to a lesser extent our international operations, primarily from the accelerated financial statement write-off of goodwill, the charge to compensation expense taken for stock options and net operating losses. Within our foreign operations, mostly domiciled within the United Kingdom, we have generated deferred tax assets primarily from the charge to compensation expense for stock options and operating losses. For us to realize the income tax benefit of these assets in the applicable jurisdiction, we must generate sufficient taxable income in future periods when such deductions are allowed for income tax purposes. In some cases where deferred taxes were the result of compensation expense recognized on stock options, our ability to realize the income tax benefit of these assets is also dependent on our share price increasing to a point where these options have intrinsic value at least equal to the grant date fair value and are exercised. In assessing whether a valuation allowance is needed in connection with our deferred income tax assets, we have evaluated our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to utilize the benefit of the deferred income tax assets. We continue to evaluate our ability to use recorded deferred income tax asset balances. If we continue to report domestic or international operating losses for financial reporting in future years in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize net operating loss carry-forwards in the future.

 

International operations have become a significant part of our business. As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We utilize a "cost plus fixed margin" transfer pricing methodology as it relates to inter-company charges for headquarters support services performed by our domestic entities on behalf of various foreign affiliates. The judgments and estimates used are subject to challenge by domestic and foreign taxing authorities. It is possible that such authorities could challenge those judgments and estimates and draw conclusions that would cause us to incur liabilities in excess of those currently recorded. We use an estimate of our annual effective tax rate at each interim period based upon the facts and circumstances available at that time, while the actual annual effective tax rate is calculated at year-end. Changes in the geographical mix or estimated amount of annual pre-tax income could impact our overall effective tax rate.

 

Research and Development and Software Development Costs — Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 985-20, "Software — Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed." Capitalization of software development costs for products to be sold to third parties begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility and ceases when the product is available for general release. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs require considerable judgment by management concerning certain external factors including, but not limited to, technological feasibility, anticipated future gross revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. We capitalize development costs incurred during the period between the establishment of technological feasibility and the release of the final product to customers. During the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, software development costs of $80,000 and $142,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, software development costs of $420,000 and $427,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. No software development costs were capitalized during the thirteen or thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 2012 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED OCTOBER 1, 2011

 

REVENUES

 

Revenues decreased 17.7% to $12.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $15.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. The reduction in revenues was primarily related to our North America segment which had lower project volumes in the current quarter primarily as a result of the completion of a significant Tier 1 carrier engagement during the current quarter and lower project volumes with two major customers during the quarter.

 

North America Segment — North America segment revenues decreased 19.5% to $9.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $11.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. During the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012, the North America segment provided services on 86 customer projects, compared to 94 projects performed in the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. Average revenue per project was $107,000 in the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012, compared to $122,000 in the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. Revenues recognized in connection with fixed price engagements totaled $5.9 million and $6.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, representing 64.3% and 54.5% of the total revenues of the segment, respectively. There were no revenues from software licensing during the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012. Revenues from software licensing and related implementation fees during the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011 were $74,000.

  

EMEA Segment— EMEA segment revenues decreased 12.7% to $3.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $4.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. During the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, this segment provided services on 67 and 75 customer projects, respectively. Average revenue per project was approximately $42,000 and $44,000, respectively, for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011. Revenues from post-contract software related support services were approximately $697,000 and $726,000 for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively. There were no revenues from software licensing during the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

COSTS OF SERVICES

 

Costs of services decreased 21.3% to $7.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $9.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. Our gross margin increased to 38.6% for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 from 35.9% for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011 primarily as a result of improvements in our EMEA segment. Our EMEA segment gross margin was 36.6% for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012, compared to 22.3% for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. Margin increases in the EMEA segment are primarily related to reduced delivery costs through the realignment of the cost structure and improved utilization. Our North America segment gross margin was 39.4% for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to 40.6% for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES

 

Operating expenses decreased 25.0% to $4.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012, from $6.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. The primary reason for the operating expense decline relates to reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012. Selling, general and administrative expenses are down due to proactive management measures to lower salary and other personnel related costs in addition to a reduction in travel and entertainment expenditures. There was no intangible asset amortization during the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 as compared with $71,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011. This decrease is due to the completion in fiscal year 2011 of amortization of all intangibles recorded in connection with acquisitions.

 

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

 

Interest income was $1,000 and $11,000 for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively, and represented interest earned on invested balances. As of September 29, 2012, our holdings consist primarily of money market funds.

INCOME TAXES

 

During both thirteen week periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recorded an income tax provision of $30,000. The income tax provisions for both periods are related to deferred taxes recognized on intangibles amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes. For the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recorded no income tax benefit related to our domestic and international pre-tax losses in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes", which requires an estimation of our ability to use recorded deferred income tax assets. We currently have recorded a valuation allowance against all domestic and international deferred income tax assets generated due to uncertainty about their ultimate realization as a result of our history of operating losses. If we continue to report net operating losses for financial reporting in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize the net operating loss carry-forwards in the future.

 

NET INCOME (LOSS)

 

We had net income of $0.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to a net loss of $0.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2011.

 

THIRTY-NINE WEEKS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 2012 COMPARED TO THIRTY-NINE WEEKS ENDED OCTOBER 1, 2011

 

REVENUES

 

Revenues decreased 19.1% to $40.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $49.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. The reduction in revenues was primarily related to our North America segment which had lower project volumes in the current thirty-nine week period primarily as a result of the completion of a few significant Tier 1 carrier and cable MSO engagements which generated $7.4 million of revenues in fiscal year 2011 along with a $0.8 million decrease in software licensing revenues.

 

North America Segment — North America segment revenues decreased 21.1% to $29.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $37.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, the North America segment provided services on 142 customer projects, compared to 144 projects performed in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Average revenue per project was $210,000 in the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, compared to $262,000 in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Revenues recognized in connection with fixed price engagements totaled $19.2 million and $20.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, representing 64.3% and 53.2% of the total revenues of the segment, respectively. There were no revenues from software licensing during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012. Revenues from software licensing and related implementation fees during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 were $753,000.

  

EMEA Segment— EMEA segment revenues decreased 12.9% to $10.2 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $11.7 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, this segment provided services on 127 and 115 customer projects, respectively. Average revenue per project was approximately $64,000 and $84,000, respectively, for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011. Revenues from post-contract software related support services were approximately $2.2 million for both thirty-nine weeks periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011. There were no revenues from software licensing during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011.

 

COSTS OF SERVICES

 

Costs of services decreased 19.1% to $25.0 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 from $30.9 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Our gross margin was 37.6% for both thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011. Our North America segment gross margin was 39.2% for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to 40.4% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. The decrease in gross margin in the first three quarters of 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011 in our North America segment is primarily due to the completion of a significant Tier 1 carrier engagement in fiscal year 2011 and a decrease in software licensing revenues. Our EMEA segment gross margin was 32.8% for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, compared to 28.4% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Margin increases in the EMEA segment are primarily related to reduced delivery costs through the realignment of the cost structure and improved utilization.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES

 

Operating expenses decreased 22.8% to $16.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, from $21.3 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 20.9% to $16.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, compared to $20.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 is primarily due to proactive management measures to lower salary and other personnel related costs in addition to a reduction in travel and entertainment expenditures. There was no intangible asset amortization during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 as compared with $496,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. This decrease is due to the completion in fiscal year 2011 of amortization of all intangibles recorded in connection with acquisitions.

 

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

 

Interest income was $5,000 and $59,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively, and represented interest earned on invested balances. Interest income decreased for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 as compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 due primarily to reductions in invested balances, including balances invested in auction rate securities during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. As of September 29, 2012, our holdings consist primarily of money market funds. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, other income (expense) also included $312,000 of realized losses on the sale of auction rate securities.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

During both thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recorded an income tax provision of $90,000. The income tax provisions for both periods are related to deferred taxes recognized on intangibles amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, we recorded no income tax benefit related to our domestic and international pre-tax losses in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes", which requires an estimation of our ability to use recorded deferred income tax assets. We currently have recorded a valuation allowance against all domestic and international deferred income tax assets generated due to uncertainty about their ultimate realization as a result of our history of operating losses. If we continue to report net operating losses for financial reporting in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize the net operating loss carry-forwards in the future.

NET LOSS

 

We had a net loss of $1.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 compared to a net loss of $3.0 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011.

 

STATEMENT REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENT

 

In addition to net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share on a GAAP basis, our management uses a non-GAAP financial measure, "Non-GAAP adjusted net income or loss," in its evaluation of our performance, particularly when comparing performance to the prior year's period and on a sequential basis. This non-GAAP measure contains certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in the following schedule entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss)." In making these non-GAAP adjustments, we take into account certain non-cash expenses and benefits, including tax effects as applicable, and the impact of certain items that are generally not expected to be on-going in nature or that are unrelated to our core operations. Management believes the exclusion of these items provides a useful basis for evaluating underlying business performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, evaluating our performance utilizing GAAP financial information. We believe that providing such adjusted results allows investors and other users of our financial statements to better understand our comparative operating performance for the periods presented. Our non-GAAP measure may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Although management believes the non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating the performance of our business, we acknowledge that items excluded from such measure have a material impact on our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management uses non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP results. Investors and other users of our financial information should also consider the above factors when evaluating our results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $2.5 million and $1.9 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, respectively. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, cash used in operating activities was the result of $0.8 million of negative cash flows due to the results of operations (after adding back non-cash items to our net loss) plus increases in net working capital other than cash of $1.7 million. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, cash used in operating activities was primarily due to losses of $1.4 million after non-cash add backs plus increases in net working capital other than cash of $0.5 million.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, while net cash provided by investing activities was $5.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Investing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 related solely to the purchase of office equipment, software and computer equipment, while investing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 included proceeds from the sale of investments of $5.9 million, partially offset by payments related to the purchase of office equipment, software and computer equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $18,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012, while net cash used in financing activities was $43,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011. Cash provided by financing activities during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2012 related to the issuance of stock through the employee stock purchase plan. Cash used in financing activities during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011 was related to $61,000 paid on long term obligations, partially offset by $18,000 received through the issuance of stock through the employee stock purchase plan.

 

At September 29, 2012, we had approximately $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents ($1.7 million of which was denominated in pounds sterling) and $17.9 million in net working capital. We believe we have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet anticipated cash requirements, including anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Furthermore, based on an analysis of our investments classified as cash equivalents, we do not believe that we have any material risk related to the liquidity or valuation of these investments, nor do we believe that we have any counterparty credit risk related to these investments. Should our cash and cash equivalents prove insufficient, we may need to obtain new debt or equity financing to support our operations or complete acquisitions. In recent years, credit and capital markets have experienced unusual volatility and disruption. If we need to obtain new debt or equity financing to support our operations or complete acquisitions in the future, we may be unable to obtain debt or equity financing on reasonable terms. We have established a flexible model that provides a lower fixed cost structure than most consulting firms, enabling us to scale operating cost structures more quickly based on market conditions, although there is a lag in time required to scale the business appropriately if revenues are reduced. Our strong balance sheet has enabled us to make acquisitions and related investments in intellectual property and businesses we believe are enabling us to capitalize on the current transformation of the industry; however, if demand for our consulting services is reduced and we experience negative cash flow, we could experience liquidity challenges at some point in the future.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. The Disclosure Committee meets on a regular quarterly basis, and as needed.

 

A review and evaluation was performed by our management, including the person serving as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the “CEO and CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 29, 2012.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 29, 2012, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On January 10, 2012, Richard P. Nespola, the Company’s former chief executive officer, former chairman of the board and a former member of the Company’s Board of Directors, filed an action, Richard P. Nespola v. The Management Network Group, Inc., against the Company with the American Arbitration Association. In the action, Mr. Nespola claims the Company breached his employment agreement and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by: (i) improperly deciding not to renew his employment agreement, and (ii) subsequently deciding to terminate his employment for cause. Further, Mr. Nespola claims the Company defamed him by publishing to the Board of Directors of the Company allegedly false reasons for terminating his employment for cause. Mr. Nespola seeks in excess of $1.6 million in damages plus attorneys’ fees and costs. TMNG denies Mr. Nespola’s agations, does not believe the action has any merit, and intends to defend against it vigorously. The proceeding is at a preliminary stage and the Company is unable to reasonably estimate any possible loss or range of possible loss given the current status of the arbitration and given the inherent uncertainty in predicting any future judicial or arbitration decision or other resolution of the proceeding.

  

We have not been subject to any material new litigation since the filing on March 30, 2012 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
