PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
This document contains certain forward-looking statements regarding future
financial condition and results of operations and the Company's business
operations. The words "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "predict," "believe,"
"plans" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions,
including industry and economic conditions, customer actions and other factors
discussed in this and kforce.com, Inc.'s ("kforce" or the "Company") other
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those
indicated.
GENERAL
Headquartered in Tampa, Florida, the Company was formed in August 1994 as a
result of the combination of Romac & Associates, Inc. and three of its largest
franchises. Following an Initial Public Offering in 1995, the Company grew to
31 offices in 18 major markets. On April 20, 1998, the Company consummated a
merger whereby Source Services Corporation ("Source"), was merged into the
Company pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("the Merger Agreement")
dated February 1, 1998, as amended on February 11, 1998 and April 17, 1998. The
acquisition was accounted for using the pooling of interests method of
accounting; accordingly, all historical results have been restated to reflect
the merger. This merger combined the strength of two organizations that shared
common visions, strategies and business practices. The Company now operates
through more than 97 locations in 45 markets and serves primarily clients from
Fortune 1000 companies with the top ten clients representing approximately 8%
of revenue in 2000.
On May 5, 2000, the stockholders approved a name change from Romac
International, Inc. ("Romac") to kforce.com, Inc. The Company intends to
request shareholder approval to remove the ".com" from its name in 2001 and
operate as Kforce Inc.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
The flexible employment service industry has experienced significant growth
over the last ten years in response to the changing work environment in the
United States. Fundamental changes in the employer-employee relationship
continue to occur, with employers developing increasingly stringent criteria
for permanent employees, while moving toward project-oriented flexible hiring.
This trend has been advanced by increasing automation that has resulted in
shorter technological cycles and by global competitive pressures. Many
employers have responded to these challenges by turning to flexible personnel
to keep labor costs variable, to achieve maximum flexibility, to obtain highly
specialized skills, and to avoid the negative effects of layoffs.
Rapidly changing regulations concerning employee benefits, health insurance,
retirement plans, and the highly competitive business climate have also
prompted many employers to take advantage of the flexibility offered through
flexible staffing. Additionally, Internal Revenue Service and Department of
Labor regulations concerning the classification of employees and independent
contractors have increased demand by prompting many independent contractors to
affiliate with employers like the Company.
The temporary staffing industry has grown rapidly in recent years as companies
have utilized temporary employees to manage personnel costs, while meeting
specialized or fluctuating staffing requirements. The National Association of
Temporary and Staffing Services has estimated that more than 80% of all U.S.
businesses utilize temporary staffing services. Selected industry reports
indicate the United States temporary staffing industry grew from an estimated
$76.8 billion in revenue in 1999 to $85.9 billion in 2000. The Company believes
that professional and technical staffing within the temporary staffing industry
requires longer-term, more highly-skilled personnel services and offers the
opportunity for higher profitability than the clerical and light industrial
staffing segments, because of the value-added nature of professional and
technical personnel.

BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company is one of the nationally recognized leaders in providing
professional specialty staffing services. The key elements of the Company's
business strategy in seeking to achieve this objective include the following:
- FOCUS ON VALUE-ADDED SERVICES. The Company focuses exclusively on
providing specialty staffing services to its clients, specifically in
the areas of information technology, human resources, finance and
accounting and operating specialties. In addition, the Company
believes, based upon data published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics and other sources, that employment growth will be
significant in the Company's sectors. The placement of highly skilled
personnel requires a distinct operational and technical knowledge to
effectively recruit and screen personnel, match them to client needs,
and develop and manage the resulting relationships. The Company
believes its historical focus in this market, combined with its
staff's operating expertise, provides it with a competitive advantage.
- BUILD LONG-TERM, CONSULTATIVE RELATIONSHIPS. The Company believes it
has developed long-term relationships with its clients by providing
integrated solutions to their specialty staffing requirements. The
Company strives to differentiate itself by working closely with its
clients to maximize their return on human assets. In addition, the
Company's ability to offer a broad range of flexible personnel
services, coupled with its permanent placement capability, offers the
client a single-source provider of specialty staffing services. This
ability enables the Company to emphasize consultative rather than
transactional client relationships.
- ACHIEVE EXTENSIVE CLIENT PENETRATION. The Company's client development
process focuses on repeated contacts with client employees responsible
for staffing decisions. Contacts are made within numerous functional
departments and at many different organizational levels within the
client. The Company's operating employees are trained to develop a
thorough understanding of each client's total staffing requirements.
In addition, although the Company is organized functionally, its
operating employees are trained and provided incentives to recognize
cross-selling opportunities for all of the Company's other services.
- RECRUIT HIGH-QUALITY PROFESSIONALS. The Company places great emphasis
on recruiting qualified personnel. The Company believes it has a
recruiting advantage over those of its competitors that lack the
ability to offer personnel flexible and permanent opportunities.
Personnel seeking permanent employment frequently accept flexible
assignments through the Company until a permanent position becomes
available.
- ENCOURAGE OPERATING EMPLOYEE ACHIEVEMENT. The Company promotes a
quality-focused, results-oriented culture. All operating employees are
given incentives to encourage the achievement of corporate goals. The
Company fosters a team-oriented and high-energy environment,
celebrates the successes of its operating employees, and attempts to
create a "spirited" work environment.
GROWTH STRATEGY
The Company has a growth strategy to expand its services in existing markets,
increasing the reach of its full range of functional services, while providing
its four functional business units with integrated staffing solutions. The key
elements of the Company's growth strategy are as follows:
- INTRODUCE FUNCTIONAL SERVICE OFFERINGS TO EXISTING MARKETS. The
Company believes that a substantial opportunity exists to increase the
number of service offerings within its existing markets.
4
5
- LEVERAGE EXISTING CLIENT RELATIONSHIPS AND DEVELOP NEW CLIENTS. The
Company continually identifies additional growth opportunities within
existing and new clients as a result of the inter-relationships among
its service offerings. The Company has established goals for
cross-selling and has trained and provided incentives for its
operating employees to actively sell its full range of services, in an
effort to maximize its reach into the marketplace.
- EXPAND MAJOR AND NATIONAL ACCOUNTS PROGRAM. The Company will continue
to market its full range of services to existing and new clients in
order to position itself as the preferred vendor for web-enabled
staffing services. The Company believes the major accounts program
enables it to further penetrate its clients by giving it greater
access to key staffing decision makers, including the support of the
client's purchasing and procurement team. This increased access allows
the Company to achieve greater operating leverage through improved
efficiencies in the marketing process. The Company has successfully
secured several national agreements for professional and technical
specialty staffing services. The Company intends to aggressively
pursue such agreements to facilitate geographic expansion and existing
market penetration.
FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION
Organized by function, the Company provides services in the specialty areas of
information technology, finance and accounting, human resources and operating
specialties. (See Note 13 to the Notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements.)
The functional areas are defined as:
- INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. Computer and Data Processing Services heads
the Bureau of Labor Statistics' list of the fastest growing
industries. The shortage of technical expertise to operate the
advanced systems that businesses have acquired over the last decade is
a major catalyst contributing to the growth of this segment. The
Company's Information Technology services focuses on more
sophisticated areas of information technologies (i.e.,
systems/applications programmers, systems analysts, e-business and
networking technicians).
- FINANCE & ACCOUNTING. The Company believes it has built a strong
reputation for providing qualified finance and accounting
professionals to businesses. The Company believes this reputation
facilitates its recruiting and placement efforts. The Company's
Finance & Accounting personnel are experienced in areas such as
corporate taxation, budget preparation and analysis, financial
reporting, cost analysis, and audit services. Finance & Accounting
also offers its Executive Solutions service line which provides chief
financial officers, controllers and other higher-level financial
professionals on a contract basis for assignment lengths generally
ranging from three to six months. Our accounting support group
provides placement of entry level accounting positions such as
bookkeepers.
- HUMAN RESOURCES. The non-core functions of a business, such as human
resources, are the most likely to be outsourced. With increasing
employment regulations, the administrative burden on employers is
becoming more complex and more time-consuming than ever before. The
Company offers flexible and permanent staffing of human resource
professionals in the areas of recruiting, benefits administration,
training and generalists. In addition, the Company provides
outplacement, outsourcing and consulting services in this field.
- OPERATING SPECIALTIES. This segment consists of professionals skilled
in the pharmaceutical, engineering, health care, scientific and legal
industries. Examples of the types of positions that would be
classified in these categories are: clinical trial professionals
(CRAs) for pharmaceutical clients, quality engineers and assurance
personnel for manufacturing companies, health care information
management professionals and nurses for health care companies, and
paralegals and attorneys for law firms and corporate clients. The
Scientific Group works with lab professionals, research and
development, quality assurance and quality control professionals.

Supporting these four functional groups in 2000 was a new business unit, formed
in 1999, kforce.com Interactive, which provided the technical management and
operational expertise for the Company's web-enabled staffing solutions. The unit
worked closely with the functional units to integrate unbundled web-enabled
services into existing accounts, to grow and manage the database of the
Company's job candidates and to serve, through the national business center, as
the primary point of sales into secondary or tertiary markets and geographic
regions where the Company does not have a physical presence. In the latter part
of 2000, the Company rolled out its "localized" web sites to each of its major
markets. Subsequently, the Company believes that the "high tech - high touch"
strategy behind its web initiative has evolved to the point where the
operations of the Company, through the localization strategy, have internalized
the operational aspects of the web. The "localization" strategy, deployed in
the second half of 2000, enabled each kforce market to significantly tailor the
content of the website to its particular needs. Each market can post job
openings specific to the region as well as content specific to that market's
clients and candidates. Subsequently, in late 2000, the Interactive group
ceased to operate as a business unit.
In February 2001, the Company modified its operating structure by consolidating
kforce Consulting, the Company's e-services project driven solutions practice,
into its existing Information Technology division. In 2000, kforce Consulting
lost $7.9 million on $17.6 million in revenue. The Company has no certainty
that any of the kforce Consulting revenue stream will continue in the future.
In realigning both the Interactive and kforce Consulting groups, the Company
believes it has strengthened its focus on its core staffing business.
STAFFING SERVICES
Once the functional challenges of the client have been identified, the Company
can then consult with the client to determine its staffing and time duration
requirements. The Company offers its staffing services in two categories:
Flexible Staffing Services or Search Services.
FLEXIBLE STAFFING
Flexible Staffing Services are offered by the Company to provide personnel in
the fields of information technology, finance and accounting, human resources
and operating specialties. Flexible Staffing Services entail placing skilled
workers in the client environment on a contractual basis. Assignments typically
run from three months to one year in duration. The Company currently offers
Flexible Staffing Services in most large metropolitan market areas of
information technology, finance and accounting, human resources and operating
specialties.
FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING. Flexible staffing offers its clients a
reliable and cost-effective means of handling uneven or peak workloads
caused by events such as periodic financial reporting deadlines, tax
deadlines, special projects, systems conversions, and unplanned
staffing fluctuations. Flexible staffing for finance and accounting
meets such clients' needs with personnel who have an extensive range
of accounting and financial experience, including corporate taxation,
budget preparation and analysis, financial reporting, regulatory
filings, payroll preparation, cost analysis, and audit services.
Through the use of the Company's services, clients are able to avoid
the cost and inconvenience of hiring and terminating permanent
employees. Typically, the duration of assignments in the Professional
Temporary Services is six to twelve weeks.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. Flexible Staffing Services in information
technology provides personnel on a contractual basis, which typically
averages six to nine months in duration. Flexible Information
Technology Services has traditionally focused on providing information
systems personnel to assist clients whose needs range from mainframe
environments to single workstations. Flexible information technology
personnel perform a wide range of services, including software
development, database design and management, system administration,
end-user training and acceptance, network design and integration,
information strategy development,
6
7
business and systems plans, and standardization of technology and
business procedures. Additionally, the need to contain costs has
caused many businesses to reduce the number of personnel resulting in
increased dependence upon information systems to support important
functions and to improve productivity.
The Company's database of skilled technical personnel is integral to
its success. Because technical needs are diverse and technology
advances occur frequently, technical talent is in high demand. As a
result, flexible information technology focuses heavily on its
recruiting efforts. The Company believes that building a base of
skilled technical personnel who are available for assignment is as
integral to its success as are its client relationships.
OPERATING SPECIALTIES. The Company has expanded its Flexible Staffing
Services functions to include pharmaceutical, engineering, health
care, scientific and legal industries. Examples of the types of
positions classified in these categories are: clinical trial
professionals (CRAs) for pharmaceutical clients, quality engineers and
assurance personnel for manufacturing companies, health care
information management professionals and nurses for health care
companies, and paralegals and attorneys for law firms and corporate
clients. The Scientific Group works with lab professionals, research
and development, quality assurance and quality control professionals.
The Company's operating employees develop and maintain an active candidate
inventory designed to meet the needs of its clients. To recruit qualified
candidates, the Company uses targeted telephone and Internet recruiting,
obtains referrals from its existing personnel and clients, and places newspaper
advertisements. The Search Services' recruiting efforts complement those of
Flexible Staffing Services, and the Company believes that this combination
distinguishes it from many of its competitors. To foster loyalty and commitment
from its existing personnel, the Company maintains frequent contact with them
as well as providing competitive wages, benefits, flexible schedules, and
exposure to a variety of working environments. The Company currently maintains
a database of approximately 1.5 million candidates.
Flexible Staffing Services targets Fortune 1000 companies and other large
organizations, with a primary focus on organizations determined to have the
potential need for the Company's full range of services. In order to maximize
its marketing effectiveness, the Company provides training to its operating
employees, which emphasizes the consulting nature of its business. The Company's
operating employees develop marketing plans composed of multiple visits, monthly
mailings, and other actions supported through the use of the front-end systems
and staff meetings. The Company believes that these techniques and processes
provide the opportunity to expand its business within its clients'
organizations, solidify client relationships, and develop new clients. The
Company recognizes that in some cases Flexible Staffing Services personnel will
be offered permanent positions. If a client requests that personnel become
permanent employees, the Company typically charges a "conversion" fee that is
calculated as a percentage of the initial annual compensation.
SEARCH SERVICES
The Company provides extensive Search Services (permanent placement) for
professional and technical personnel. The placement opportunities are in the
areas of information technology, finance and accounting, financial services,
pharmaceutical research, health care, human resources, insurance, legal and
manufacturing.
The Company performs both contingency and retained searches. A contingency
search results in payment to the Company only when personnel are actually hired
by a client. The Company's strategy is to perform contingency searches only for
skills it targets as its core-businesses. Client searches that are outside a
core-business area typically are at a management or executive level and require
a targeted research and recruiting effort. The Company typically performs these
searches as retained searches where the client pays a part of the search fee in
advance and the remainder upon completion of the search. The Company's fee is
typically structured as a percentage of the placed individual's first-year
annual compensation.
7
8
An active database of candidates is maintained as the result of the Company's
continuous recruiting efforts and reputation in the industry. In addition,
operating employees locate many potential personnel as the result of referrals
from the Flexible Staffing Services activities.
The Company believes that it has developed a reputation for quality search work
and that it is recognized as a leader in its search specialties. To minimize
the risk of changes in skill demand, the Company's marketing plan incorporates
a continual review of client recruitment plans for future periods to allow for
rapid changes to "in-demand" skills. The quality of the relationship with
client personnel is a key component of the strategy, and the Company seeks to
use consultative relationships to obtain insight into emerging growth areas.
The clients targeted by the Search Services are typically the same as those
targeted by the Flexible Staffing Services. This common focus is intended to
contribute to the Company's objective of providing integrated solutions to its
clients' personnel needs.
The Company's search business is highly specialized. Certain skills, such as
finance and accounting, information technology and human resources, may be
served by local offices, while other, more highly specialized niches require a
regional or national focus.
TECHNOLOGY
kforce.com continues to invest in its technology infrastructure. During 2000,
the Company outsourced the corporate headquarters data center and had its
servers placed in a bunkered facility. We believe this facility will greatly
reduce the threat to the Company from a potential major outage due to the
forces of nature.
The Company's Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") application was also
upgraded in 2000. This project improved many internal and external customer
related business processes. The continued integration between the ERP and
Customer Service related proprietary systems ("PROS" and "WIZARD") improve the
transfer of data and simplification of business processes.
Also in 2000, the kforce.com Internet web site had two major releases. One
supported the Company's branding initiative, which included the Super Bowl
advertising campaign. The second major release supported the localization
market strategy. The Company continues to improve system interfaces that
support internal and external business processes.
COMPETITION
The specialty staffing services industry is very competitive and fragmented.
There are relatively few barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter
the market. A number of the Company's competitors possess substantially greater
resources than the Company. The Company faces substantial competition from
large national firms and local specialty staffing firms. The local firms are
typically operator-owned, and each market generally has one or more significant
competitors. The Company also faces competition from national clerical and
light industrial staffing firms and national and regional accounting firms that
also offer certain specialty staffing services. Additionally, there are a
number of "born on the web" job boards that are offering traditional staffing
services as well as traditional staffing companies developing a significant web
component.
The Company believes that the availability and quality of its personnel, the
level of service, the effective monitoring of job performance, scope of
geographic service and the price of service are the principal elements of
competition. The Company believes that availability of quality personnel is an
especially important facet of competition. In order to attract candidates, the
Company places emphasis upon its ability to provide permanent placement
opportunities, competitive compensation and benefits, quality and varied
assignments, and scheduling flexibility. Because personnel pursue other
employment opportunities on a regular basis, it is important that the Company
respond to market conditions affecting these individuals. Additionally, in
certain markets and in response to economic softening, the Company has
experienced significant pricing pressure from some of its competitors. Although
the Company believes it
8
9
competes favorably with respect to these factors, it expects competition and
pricing pressure to increase, and there can be no assurance that it will remain
competitive.
INSURANCE
The Company maintains a fidelity bond and a number of insurance policies
including general liability and automobile liability, (each with excess
liability coverage), professional liability, errors and omissions, employment
practices liability, workers' compensation and employers' liability. Each of
these policies, with aggregate coverage of up to $5.0 million, covers certain
liabilities that may arise from the actions or omissions of its operating
employees and personnel. There can be no assurance that any of the above
coverages will be adequate for the Company's needs.
OPERATING EMPLOYEES AND PERSONNEL
As of December 31, 2000, the Company and its subsidiaries employed
approximately 2,400 operating employees. Additionally, as of that date, the
Company had approximately 7,100 personnel on assignment providing flexible
staffing services to its clients. As the employer, the Company is responsible
for the operating employees and personnel payrolls and employer's share of
social security taxes (FICA), federal and state unemployment taxes, workers'
compensation insurance, and other direct labor costs relating to its operating
employees and personnel. The Company offers access to various insurance
programs and other benefits for its operating employees and personnel. The
Company has no collective bargaining agreements covering any of its operating
employees or personnel, has never experienced any material labor disruption,
and is unaware of any current efforts or plans to organize its operating
employees or personnel.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company leases its corporate headquarters in Tampa, Florida, as well as
space for its other locations. The aggregate area of office space under leases
for locations is approximately 534,700 square feet. The leases generally run
from month-to-month to five years and the aggregate annual rent paid by the
Company in 2000 was approximately $11.4 million. The Company believes after
relocation to its new corporate headquarters in 2001, that its facilities will
be adequate for its needs. The Company owns a parcel of vacant land adjacent to
the site of its new corporate headquarters for which it has no current plans to
develop.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is, from time to time,
threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits, including
discrimination and harassment and other similar claims. The Company maintains
insurance in such amounts and with such coverages and deductibles as management
believes are reasonable. The principal risks that the Company insures against
are workers' compensation, personal injury, bodily injury, property damage,
professional malpractice, errors and omissions, employment practices liability
and fidelity losses. The Company does not believe that it is involved in any
litigation which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on its results of operation or financial condition.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in connection with the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes thereto incorporated
into Item 8 of this report.
OVERVIEW
The Company is a provider of professional and technical specialty staffing
services in 45 markets in the United States and one international market
(Toronto, Canada). The Company provides its customers staffing services in the
following specialties: information technology, finance and accounting, human
resources and operating specialties. The Company believes its broad range of
highly specialized services provides clients with integrated solutions to their
staffing needs, allowing it to develop long-term, consultative relationships.
This range of services includes search services and flexible staffing services,
both professional temporary and contract. Contract services for information
technology services are provided through the Company's kforce Consulting group.
The Company believes its functional focus and range of service offerings
generate increased placement opportunities and enhance its ability to identify,
attract, retain, develop and motivate personnel and operating employees. The
Company principally serves Fortune 1000 clients, with its top ten clients
representing approximately 8% of its revenue for 2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth, as a percentage of net service revenues,
certain items in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the
indicated periods:
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
-----------------------
1998 1999 2000
----- ----- -----
Flexible Billings............................ 80.1% 80.6% 77.5%
Search Fees.................................. 19.9 19.4 22.5
----- ----- -----
Net service revenues......................... 100.0 100.0 100.0
Gross profit................................. 42.9 43.2 45.5
Selling, general, and administrative
expenses................................... 33.1 46.4 43.0
Income (loss) before income taxes............ 5.3 (5.0) 0.1
Net income (loss) ........................... 2.3% (3.1)% 0.0%
2000 COMPARED TO 1999
NET SERVICE REVENUES. Net service revenues increased 6.5% to $795.0 million in
2000 compared to $746.6 million for the same period in 1999. This increase was
composed of a $14.6 million increase in Flexible Billings and a $33.8 million
increase in Search Fees for the year ended December 31, 2000. The reasons for
such increases are set forth below.
FLEXIBLE BILLINGS. Flexible billings increased 2.4% to $616.0 million in 2000
compared to $601.5 million for the same period in 1999. Hours billed for the
year remained relatively consistent year-to-year between 2000 and 1999. The
increase in flexible billings was primarily attributable to an increase in the
average billing rate in 2000.
SEARCH FEES. Search fees increased 23.3% to $178.9 million in 2000 compared to
$145.1 million for the same period in 1999. Approximately $16.0 million of this
increase was the result of an increased number of search placements made during
2000 as compared to 1999. The remaining increase, approximately $17.8 million,
was primarily the result of an increase in the average fee for each search
placement.
12
13
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit on Flexible Billings is determined by deducting the
direct cost of services (primarily flexible personnel payroll wages, payroll
taxes, payroll-related insurance, and subcontract costs) from net service
revenues. Consistent with industry practices, all costs related to Search Fees
are classified as selling, general, and administrative expense. Gross profit
increased 12.1% to $361.6 million in 2000 as compared to $322.6 million in
1999. Gross profit as a percentage of net service revenues increased to 45.5%
in 2000 compared to 43.2% for the same period in 1999. The increase in gross
profit percentage was a result of both the improvement in margins on Flexible
Billings, attributable to higher average billing rates, and a shift in business
mix to more Search Fees, which have traditionally higher margins than Flex
Billings, in 2000 compared to 1999. Search Fees accounted for 22.5% of 2000 net
service revenues as compared to 19.4% in 1999.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 1.3% to $341.8 million in 2000 as compared to
$346.5 million for the same period in 1999. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net service revenues decreased to 43.0% in 2000
compared to 46.4% for the same period in 1999. The decrease as a percentage of
net service revenues resulted primarily from the continuation of strategic
initiatives undertaken by management in 1999 to re-engineer and streamline back
office operations, and a reduction in advertising after the launch of the
Company's new name.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense increased
27.0% to $18.4 million for 2000 compared to $14.5 million for the same period
in 1999. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of net service
revenue increased to 2.3% for 2000 compared 1.9% for the same period in 1999.
The increase as a percentage of net service revenues for 2000 as compared to
the same period in 1999 was primarily due to increased amortization of computer
software utilized to increase back office efficiency.
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE. Other (income) expense decreased 112.0% in 2000 to $0.1
million as compared to $(0.9) million for the same period in 1999. The decrease
in 2000 compared to 1999 was primarily due to a reduction of interest income in
2000 compared to 1999 related to the use of available cash to make stock
repurchases throughout 2000.
INCOME (LOSS) BEFORE INCOME TAXES. The income before income taxes was $1.2
million for 2000 as compared to loss before taxes of $(37.4) million for the
same period in 1999, primarily as a result of increased net service revenues
and gross margin and reduced selling, general, and administrative expenses
discussed above.
PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. The income tax provision for 2000 was
$1.5 million compared to a benefit of $(13.9) million for the same period in
1999. The effective tax rate was 124% in 2000 as compared to an effective tax
benefit rate of 37.1% in 1999. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2000
as compared to 1999 was primarily due to the benefit resulting from Company's
net loss position in 1999. The effective tax rate in 2000 was abnormally high
due to non-deductibility of amortization of goodwill and 50% of meals and
entertainment expenses.
NET INCOME (LOSS). The net loss was $(0.3) million for 2000 and $(23.5) million
for 1999. This reduction in loss in 2000 compared to 1999 was the result of
increased net service revenue and gross margin and reduced selling, general,
and administrative expenses discussed above.
13
14
1999 COMPARED TO 1998
NET SERVICE REVENUES. Net service revenues increased 9.8% to $746.6 million in
1999 compared to $680.1 million for the same period in 1998. This increase was
composed of a $56.9 million increase in Flexible Billings and a $9.6 million
increase in Search Fees for the year ended December 31, 1999. The reasons for
such increases are set forth below.
FLEXIBLE BILLINGS increased 10.4% to $601.5 million in 1999 as compared to
$544.6 million for the same period in 1998. Approximately $41 million of this
increase was a result of an increase in the number of hours billed by
operations as compared to the same periods in 1998 due to the Company's
continued emphasis on expanding the number of service offerings in all markets.
The remaining increase, approximately $16 million, was primarily attributable
to an increase in the average billing rate for 1999.
SEARCH FEES increased 7.1% to $145.1 million in 1999 compared to $135.5 million
for the same period in 1998. This increase resulted primarily from an increase
in the average fee for each search placement made during 1999 compared to the
same period in 1998. The number of search placements made in 1999 remained
relatively constant compared to 1998.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased 10.6% to $322.6 million in 1999 compared
to $291.6 million in 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of net service revenues
increased to 43.2% in 1999 compared to 42.9% for the same period in 1998. The
increase in gross profit percentage was primarily a result of the improvement
in margins on Flexible Billings attributable to higher average billing rates.
This increase was partially offset by the continuing change in the Company's
business mix between Flexible Billings and Search Fees. Revenues from Flexible
Billings, which have traditionally lower gross margins than Search Fees,
increased to 80.6% of the Company's net service revenues in 1999 compared to
80.1% for the same period in 1998.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 54.1% to $346.5 million in 1999 compared to
$224.8 million for the same period in 1998. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net service revenues increased to 46.4% in 1999
compared to 33.1% for the same period in 1998. The increase as a percentage of
net service revenues resulted primarily from several strategic initiatives
adopted by management during the first half of 1999. These included: i) the
development, deployment, advertising and other related expenses for the
Company's online interactive career management and recruitment resource,
kforce.com Interactive, ii) activities to re-engineer and streamline back
office operations, and iii) investments in future growth, including leadership
development, increasing the number of sales consultants, buildout of a national
service center, and further development of educational services, kforce
Consulting and operating specialties.
MERGER, RESTRUCTURING AND INTEGRATION EXPENSE. There was no merger,
restructuring and integration expense in 1999, compared to $26.1 million in
1998. The 1998 expenses were related to the merger with Source in April 1998
and the restructuring charges incurred in connection with the merger. Merger,
restructuring and integration expenses consisted of $8.2 million of direct
costs related to the merger and $17.9 million related to restructuring and
integration.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense increased
52.7%, to $14.5 million for 1999 compared to $9.5 million for the same period
in 1998. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of net service
revenue increased to 1.9% for 1999 compared to 1.4% for the same period in 1998.
The increase as a percentage of net service revenues for 1999 compared to the
same period in 1998 was primarily due to additional depreciation on the new
technology platform implemented at certain Source locations in the second half
of 1998 and to additional goodwill amortization due to earnout buyouts
negotiated in 1999.
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE. Other (income) expense decreased 81.1% in 1999 to $0.9
million compared to $5.0 million for the same period in
14
15
1998. The decrease during 1999 compared to the same period in 1998 was due to a
decrease in investment income resulting from increased cash requirements for
funding operations and for the Company's repurchase of common stock.
INCOME (LOSS) BEFORE INCOME TAXES. The loss before income taxes was $37.4
million for 1999 compared to income before taxes of $36.1 million for the same
period in 1998, primarily as a result of the increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses discussed above.
PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. The income tax benefit for 1999 was $13.9
million compared to a provision of $20.7 million for the same period in 1998.
The effective tax benefit rate was 37.1% in 1999 compared to an effective
provision rate of 57.3% in 1998. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 1999
compared to 1998 was primarily due to the Company's net loss position in 1999
and to certain non-deductible merger related expenses in 1998 which were not
present in 1999.
NET INCOME (LOSS). The net loss was $23.5 million for 1999 compared to net
income of $15.4 million for the same period in 1998. This decrease was
primarily due to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses
discussed above, which were partially offset by the 1998 merger, restructuring,
and integration expenses and the decrease in the effective tax rate as a result
of the non-deductible merger related expenses in 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's sources of liquidity include approximately $1.9 million in cash
and cash equivalents and approximately $69.0 million in additional net working
capital. In addition, the Company has approximately $45 million outstanding
under its $90 million Amended and Restated Credit Facility with Bank of America
(the "Credit Facility"). This Credit Facility, which was entered into on
November 3, 2000, has an initial term of three years. The Credit Facility
provides for a maximum revolving credit facility of $90 million (not to exceed
85% of the Company's "Eligible Receivables" as such term is defined in the
Credit Facility).
The Credit Facility contains a provision that limits the dollar amount of
common stock the Company may repurchase subsequent November 3, 2000 to $55
million. On February 12, 2001, the Credit Facility was amended to increase the
maximum amount of common stock the Company may repurchase to $72 million.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, cash flow provided by operations was
approximately $28.3 million, resulting primarily from a non-cash adjustment for
depreciation and amortization, refunds of prior income tax payments and an
increase in accrued payroll costs, partially offset by an increase in accounts
receivable and a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities.
The increase in accounts receivable reflects the increased volume of business
in 2000 as compared to 1999. The increase in accrued payroll costs, and the
decreases in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities are primarily due
to the timing of payment of these liabilities.
During 2000, cash flow used in investing activities was approximately $10.8
million, resulting primarily from an increase of $3.2 million in the value of
deferred compensation related assets, the use of approximately $1.2 million for
contingent earn out payments on prior acquisitions and $6.4 million in capital
expenditures.
For the year 2000, cash flow used in financing activities was approximately
$23.4 million, resulting primarily from the use of $12.7 million for the
repurchase of outstanding stock through open market purchases and $55.8 million
to execute a modified Dutch Auction tender offer for the repurchase of common
stock completed in December 2000. The use of funds for stock purchases was
partially offset by proceeds from the Company's bank line of credit. As of
December 31, 2000, the Company had repaid $10.0 million of the $55.0 million of
bank line of credit proceeds used during the year. Through March 23, 2001, an
additional 285,000 shares were repurchased in 2001 for a total purchase price of
$1.1 million.
15
16
On March 11, 1999, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had
authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of its common stock on the open
market, from time to time, depending on market conditions. On October 24, 2000,
the Board of Directors authorized an increase to up to $100 million for stock
repurchases. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had repurchased approximately
14.4 million shares for $82.7 million under this plan. Additional stock
repurchases may have a material impact on the Company's cash flow requirements
for the next twelve months.
The Company believes that cash flow from operations and borrowings under its
credit facility, or other credit facilities that may become available to the
Company in the foreseeable future, will be adequate to meet the working capital
requirements of current operations for at least the next twelve months.
However, there is no assurance (i) that the Company will be able to obtain
financing in amounts sufficient to meet its operating requirements or at terms
which are satisfactory and which allow the Company to remain competitive, or
(ii) that the Company will be able to meet the financial covenants contained in
its credit facility. The Company's estimate of the period that existing
resources will fund its working capital requirements is a forward-looking
statement that is subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could
differ from those indicated as a result of a number of factors, including the
use of such resources for possible acquisitions and the announced stock
repurchase plan.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2000, FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain
Transactions Involving Stock Compensation", which further clarifies APB Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". This interpretation did not
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or its results of
operations.
In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities", was issued. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138,
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts
(collectively referred to as derivatives), and for hedging activities. It also
requires that all derivatives and hedging activities be recognized as either
assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and be measured at
fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of the derivative
(that is, gains and losses) depends upon the intended use of the derivative and
resulting designation if used as a hedge. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000
and therefore will be effective during the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The
Company has determined that this standard has no impact on its financial
position or results of operations and is not currently expected to have a
material impact in the future.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency
fluctuations and changes in interest rates on its borrowings. The effect of a
1% change in interest rates would currently have an impact of $.45 million. The
Company does not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments for
speculative or hedging purposes. The Company does not believe that changes in
interest rates or foreign currency are material to its operations.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the
reports of Deloitte & Touche LLP and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's
independent auditors, are set forth on the pages indicated in Item 14.

17
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On August 3, 2000, the Company replaced PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PWC")
with Deloitte & Touche LLP ("DT") as the Company's independent auditors. The
change was the result of a formal proposal process conducted by the Company's
Audit Committee and management with several accounting firms. The change was
approved by both the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors.
The reports of PWC on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of December
31, 1999 and 1998 and the related consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income, stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the years
in the three-year period ended December 31, 1999, did not contain an adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
There were no disagreements between the Company and PWC as to any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or audit
scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
PWC, would have caused it to make a reference to the subsequent matter of the
disagreement in connection with its reports on the financial statements for
such periods within the meaning of Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years or any subsequent interim
periods prior to the engagement of DT, neither the Company nor anyone on its
behalf consulted with DT concerning: (i) the application of accounting
principles to any transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be
rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was
either the subject of a disagreement or an event required to be reported
pursuant to Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of kforce.com, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of kforce.com, Inc.
and subsidiaries (the "Company"), formerly known as Romac International, Inc.,
as of December 31, 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations
and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial

significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31,
2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year
then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the

KFORCE.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN 000'S EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
kforce.com, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is a provider of professional
and technical specialty staffing services in more than 97 locations in 45
markets in the United States and Canada. The Company provides its customers
staffing services in the following specialties: Information Technology, Finance
and Accounting, Human Resources and Operating Specialties. The Company provides
flexible staffing services on both a professional temporary and contract basis
and provides search services on both a contingency and retained basis. The
Company principally serves Fortune 1000 clients.
On May 5, 2000 the Stockholders approved a name change from Romac
International, Inc. ("Romac") to kforce.com, Inc.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of kforce.com, Inc.
and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company classifies all highly liquid investments with an original maturity
of three months or less as cash equivalents.
FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT
Furniture and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized
using the straight-line method over the terms of the related leases which range
from three to seven years.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Net service revenues consist of sales, net of credits and discounts. The
Company recognizes Flexible Billings based on hours worked by assigned
personnel on a weekly basis. Search Fees are recognized in contingency search
engagements upon the successful completion of the assignment. The Company's
policy is to replace individuals who fail to continue employment for the period
of time specified in the agreements for search assignments, generally thirty to
ninety days. Revenue from Search Fees is shown on the Consolidated Statement of
Operations net of a reserve for candidates not remaining in employment for the
guarantee period.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". This
pronouncement summarizes certain of the SEC staff's views on applying generally
accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition. The Company is
27
28
required to be in compliance with SAB 101 for our fiscal year ending December
31, 2000. The adherence to SAB 101 requirements did not have a material impact
on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under the principles of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS
109"). SFAS 109 requires an asset and liability approach to the recognition of
deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of
differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of other assets and
liabilities. The tax benefits of deductions attributable to employees'
disqualifying dispositions of shares obtained from incentive stock options are
reflected in additional paid-in capital.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has elected to continue accounting for stock based compensation
under the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock based compensation as
provided under APB No. 25 and has disclosed pro forma net income and earnings
(loss) per share amounts using the fair value based method prescribed by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123").
SELF-INSURANCE
The Company offered an employee benefit program for certain employees through
September 30, 1998, and offers a program for all eligible employees effective
October 1, 1998, for which it is self-insured for a portion of the cost. The
Company is liable for claims up to $150 per employee and aggregate claims up to
a defined yearly payment limit. All full-time employees and salaried
consultants are eligible to participate in the program. Self-insurance costs
are accrued using estimates to approximate the liability for reported claims
and claims incurred but not reported.
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Other comprehensive income includes foreign currency translation adjustments
which arise primarily from activities of the Company's Canadian operations.
Results of operations are translated using the average exchange rates during
the period, while assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using
current or historical rates depending upon the related assets. Resulting
foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in stockholders' equity.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Under Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", basic
earnings (loss) per share is computed as earnings divided by weighted average
shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive
effects of stock options and other potentially dilutive securities.
Options that were outstanding, but were antidilutive, and therefore were
excluded from the computation of diluted shares, totaled 5,751, 5,289, and
1,207 shares of common stock, for 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, at option
prices per share ranging from $0.980 to $28.125, $ 0.980 to $30.063, and
$24.125 to $30.063 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The options, which
expire on various dates ranging from January 2005 to October 2009 were still
outstanding at December 31, 2000.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the
Company using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required
28
29
in interpreting data to develop the estimates of fair value. The fair values of
the Company's financial instruments are estimated based on current market rates
and instruments with the same risk and maturities. The fair values of cash and
cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term investments, accounts
payable, long term debt, other non-current liabilities and payables to related
parties approximate the carrying values of these financial instruments.
GOODWILL
Goodwill, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $92,764 and $95,692 at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Goodwill is amortized on a
straight-line basis over a fifteen to thirty year period. Goodwill amortization
expense was $4,231, $3,857 and $3,212 for the years ended December 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Management periodically reviews the carrying value of goodwill and other
long-lived assets to determine if an impairment has occurred. Any impairment
loss would have been recorded in the period identified. No such losses were
recorded in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other
Comprehensive Income (Loss).
CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE
During 1997, the Company began the development and implementation of new
computer software to enhance performance of the accounting and operating
systems. The Company accounts for direct internal and external costs subsequent
to the preliminary stage of this project under the principles of SOP 98-1,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use". Software development costs are being capitalized and classified
as other assets and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software
(typically three years) using the straight-line method. The Company continues
development and enhancements to its accounting and operating computer software.
Direct internal and external costs subsequent to the preliminary stage of each
of these projects are being capitalized and classified as capitalized software,
a component of other assets.
DEFERRED LOAN COSTS
Costs incurred to secure the Company's Credit Facilities have been capitalized
and are being amortized over the terms of the related agreements.
NON-COMPETE AGREEMENTS
Payments made to enter into non-compete agreements have been capitalized and
are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related
agreements.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2000, FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain
Transactions Involving Stock Compensation", which further clarifies APB Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". This interpretation did not
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or its results of
operations.
In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities", was issued. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138,
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts
(collectively referred to as derivatives), and for hedging activities. It also
requires that all derivatives and hedging activities be recognized as either
assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and be measured at
fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of the derivative
(that is, gains and
29
30
losses) depends upon the intended use of the derivative and resulting
designation if used as a hedge. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is effective for all
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 and therefore
will be effective during the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The Company has
determined that this standard has no impact on its financial position or
results of operations and is not currently expected to have a material impact
in the future.
2. FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT
Major classifications of furniture and equipment and related asset lives are
summarized as follows:

In 2000, the Company purchased land in Tampa, FL. The Company subsequently sold
the portion of this land on which its new headquarters facility will be built
to a real estate developer. The Company will lease the facility for 15 years
from the developer once construction is complete in late 2001. Leasehold
improvements includes approximately $1,865 in improvements related to the
headquarters facility. Depreciation of the improvements will begin upon the
commencement of the lease. Land consists of $1,310 for the remaining parcel of
property not sold to the developer.
3. ACQUISITIONS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000
During 2000, the Company had no acquisitions. During 2000, the Company settled
earnout provisions on certain prior acquisitions for approximately $1,221.
These amounts have been recorded as purchase price consideration and are
included in goodwill.
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999
In January 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of
Network Training Solutions, Science Solutions, Inc. and Technology Consulting
Group for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5,100. During 1999, the

consideration and are included in goodwill.
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
The Company completed its merger with Source Services Corporation ("Source") on
April 20, 1998, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Accordingly, all historical results have been restated to reflect the combined
results for the Company and Source for all periods presented. The common stock
of Source was converted to shares of the Company using a 1.1351 ratio.
30
31
There were no purchase acquisitions by the Company during the year ended
December 31, 1998. However, during 1998, approximately $23,593 of earnout
provisions related to prior acquisitions were paid. These amounts have been
recorded as additional purchase price consideration and are included in
goodwill.
The Company has accounted for all acquisitions, except for the Source
transaction, using the purchase method of accounting. The results of these
purchased companies' operations have been included with those of the Company
from the dates of the respective acquisitions.

During 1999, the Company had an unsecured line of credit agreement in the
amount of $30,000 ("Old Credit Facility") which matured on March 31, 2000. The
interest rate on the Old Credit Facility was up to
31
32
1.5% above the average rate at which deposits in U.S. dollars were offered in
the London Interbank Market. No amounts were outstanding under the Old Credit
Facility at December 31, 1999.
On May 4, 2000, the Company entered into a $35 million Revolving Line of
Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of
Credit provided for a maximum revolving credit facility of $35 million (based
on the Company's eligible receivables). Under its terms, prepayments on the
Line of Credit were allowed at any time, with any remaining unpaid balance due
two years from closing. Borrowings under the Line of Credit are secured by all
of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. Interest rates on the
outstanding balance are to be calculated based on: (i) the London Interbank
Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus (ii) from 1.75% to 3.00% based on certain financial
ratios of the Company. Fees payable by the Company in connection with the Line
of Credit also varied with these financial ratios. The terms of the Line of
Credit also included certain financial covenants related to quarterly minimum
requirements for EBITDA, fixed charge coverage ratio and tangible net worth and
maximum requirements for leverage ratio. There were also certain limitations on
investments and acquisitions, dividends and repurchases of the Company's stock.
The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit
Facility") on November 3, 2000, with Bank of America, N.A. ("BA"). As of
December 31, 2000, there was $45,000 outstanding on the Credit Facility. The
Credit Facility provides for a maximum revolving credit facility of $90 million
(not to exceed 85% of the Company's Eligible Receivables, as defined in the New
Credit Facility). Under its terms, prepayments on the Credit Facility are
allowed at any time, with any remaining unpaid balance due November 3, 2003.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the assets of the
Company and its subsidiaries. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility will
bear interest during the period beginning on November 3, 2000 until the bank's
receipt of the Company's financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended
March 31, 2001 at a rate per annum equal either to 0.50% plus BA's Prime Rate
("Prime") or to reserve adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the Credit Facility) plus
2.70% adjusted monthly. Following delivery of the Company's financial
statements for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001, performance pricing
will be available, ranging from Prime to Prime plus 0.75% and LIBOR plus 1.75%
to LIBOR plus 3.25%, pursuant to certain financial performance targets as set
forth in the Credit Facility. Pricing will thereafter be changed quarterly
based on the previous four quarters' performance. The terms of the Credit
Facility also include certain financial covenants only if the total amount
borrowed under the Credit Facility exceeds specified amounts. These financial
covenants relate to quarterly EBITDA as compared to the Company's EBITDA
projections. There are also certain limitations on investments and
acquisitions, and repurchases of the Company's stock. Under the terms of this
Agreement, the Company is prohibited from making any dividend distributions.
The Credit Facility contains a provision that limits the dollar amount of
common stock the Company may repurchase subsequent to November 3, 2000 to $55
million. In February 2001, the Credit Facility was amended to increase the
maximum amount of common stock the Company may repurchase to $72 million.
6. MERGER, RESTRUCTURING AND INTEGRATION EXPENSES
In connection with the 1998 Source merger, $26,122 of one-time merger,
restructuring, and integration related expenses were identified and recorded in
1998. These charges included direct merger costs of approximately $8,265, which
consisted of professional fees and other transaction costs associated with the
merger, approximately $4,606 of severance and other termination-related costs
to be incurred in connection with anticipated staff reductions, $5,885 costs in
connection with consolidation of certain office facilities and related
equipment, and approximately $7,366 in other merger and integration related
expenses.
At December 31, 1998, the remaining accrued expenses balance associated with
the above charge was $4,931, of which approximately $2,744 related to severance
and other termination-related costs, approximately $1,631 related to the
consolidation of certain office facilities and related equipment and
approximately $556 related to other merger and integration related expenses.

======= =======
A valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets has not been recorded due
to the presence of taxable income in years available for carryback and
management's expectation that it is more likely than not that deferred tax
assets will be realized in future periods.
At December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately a $6,700 state tax net
operating loss which will be carried forward to be offset against future state
taxable income. The amount of the state tax net operating loss carryforward
expires in varying amounts through 2014.
8. RELATED PARTIES
RECEIVABLES FROM RELATED PARTIES
Receivables from officers and stockholders include non-interest bearing
receivables for premiums paid on split dollar life insurance policies and other
notes receivable. Repayment terms on the other notes receivables range from one
to two years at rates of 6% to 8%.
NOTES PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTIES
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had $2,000 of notes payable outstanding to
a related party relating to contingent purchase price adjustments on previous
acquisitions (see Note 3). This obligation was retired in 2000.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Consulting services totaling $371 and $595 for 2000 and 1999, respectively, were
provided to the Company by a company owned by the spouse of the Chairman of the
Board. On July 1, 2000, the consulting contract was cancelled. In addition, an
aircraft charter company owned 100% by the Chairman of the Board provided
charter services to the Company in the amount of $125 in both 2000 and 1999. The
Company billed the aircraft charter company $22 and $35 for the use of the
Company's airplane in 2000 and 1999, respectively. Similar agreements for
aircraft
34
35
usage have been entered into for 2001. The Company has operating leases with
related parties as discussed in Note 11.
9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
The Company has a qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan covering
substantially all full-time employees. The plan offers a savings feature and
Company matching contributions. Employer matching contributions are
discretionary and are funded annually as approved by the Board of Directors.
The match has been made in the Company's stock for 1999 and 2000. Assets of
this plan are held in trust for the sole benefit of employees.
Prior to the merger, Source merged its profit sharing plan and 401(k) plan
("Source Plan") effective October 1, 1997. The Source Plan covered all active
participants who were participating in either the previous 401(k) plan or
profit sharing plan or those employees who met the Source Plan's requirements
for eligibility. The Source Plan was merged with the Company's 401(k) plan
("the Plan") effective July 1, 1998. At December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the
Plan held 1,615, 1,772 and 2,303 shares, respectively, of the Company's stock,
representing approximately 5.0%, 4.0% and 5.0%, respectively of the Company's
outstanding shares. Employer contributions to the 401(k) plans totaled $1,165,
$892 and $1,609 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
During 1996, Source enacted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. This plan allowed
employees to purchase stock at the current market price through payroll
deductions, without paying commissions on purchases. Only Source employees
hired prior to April 20, 1998 were eligible to participate in the Employee
Stock Purchase Plan. There was no waiting period for enrollment prior to April
20, 1998.
Effective January 1, 2000, the Company placed into effect a new Employee Stock
Purchase Plan which had been approved during 1999 and which allows all
employees to purchase stock at a 15% discount from market prices and without
commissions on the purchases. Employees are eligible to participate in the plan
as of the next plan enrollment date following their date of hire. This plan
replaces the prior Source Employee Stock Purchase Plan. For the year ended
December 31, 2000, the Company issued 632 shares of common stock, at an average
purchase price of $3.73 per share, pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase
Plan. These shares were transferred to the plan from the Company's treasury
stock. Of the 632 shares issued, the Company issued 217 of the shares at an
average price of $5.90 during the year and 415 shares at an average price of
$2.60 subsequent to year-end. The shares issued subsequent to year-end related
to employee contributions made during the year.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
The Company has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan pursuant to which
eligible officers and highly compensated key employees may elect to defer part
of their compensation to later years. The Company accrues discretionary Company
matching contributions. These amounts, which are classified as other long-term
liabilities, are payable upon retirement or termination of employment, and at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, aggregated $12,966 and $14,001, respectively. The
Company has insured the lives of the participants in the deferred compensation
plan to assist in the funding of the deferred compensation liability. The cash
surrender value of these Company-owned life insurance policies, $13,648 and
$10,435 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, is included in other
assets. Compensation expense of $439, $1,938, and $825 was recognized for the
plan for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.
35
36
SPLIT DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE
In 1995, the Company entered into split dollar and cross-purchase split dollar
life insurance agreements with several officers and their estates whereby the
Company pays a portion of the life insurance premiums on behalf of the officers
and their estates. The Company has been granted a security interest in the cash
value and death benefit of each policy equal to the amount of the cumulative
premium payments made by the Company. The intent of these agreements was to, in
the event of an officer's death, provide liquidity to pay estate taxes and to
provide surviving officers with the ability to purchase shares from a deceased
officer's estate, minimizing the possibility of a large block of the Company's
common shares being put on the open market to the potential detriment of the
Company's market price and to allow the Company to maintain a concentration of
voting power among its officers.
Premiums paid to date that have not been recovered from policy cancellations
and which are included in related party receivables were $758 and $760 at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
10. STOCK OPTION PLANS
During 1994, the Company established an employee incentive stock option plan
which authorized the issuance to employees of options to purchase common stock.
During 1996, this plan was amended to increase the number of shares of common
stock that may be issued under the plan to 6,000 to allow persons other than
employees to participate in the plan, to allow incentives in the form of
Nonqualified Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Restricted Stock to
be awarded under the plan and to effect a change in the plan name to the Romac
International, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan. During 1997, the Plan was amended to
increase the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Plan
to 9,000. The Plan was again amended in 1999 to increase the number of shares
authorized for issuance to 12,000.
During 1995, the Company established a non-employee director stock option plan
which authorized the issuance to non-employee directors of options to purchase
common stock. The maximum number of shares of common stock that can be issued
under this plan is 400.
Prior to the merger, Source had an incentive stock option plan for eligible
employees of Source and a non-employee director option plan. Effective with the
merger, all stock options previously granted and outstanding under these plans
were exchanged for approximately 638 of the Company's stock options.
A summary of the Company's stock option activity is as follows:

Had compensation cost for the Company's option plans been determined based on
the fair value at the grant dates, as prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company's net
income(loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been as follows:

Pro forma.......................... $ (.46) $ (.75) $ .22
Diluted:
As reported........................ $ (.01) $ (.53) $ .33
Pro forma $ (.46) $ (.75) $ .21
The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for
grants during the applicable period: dividend yield of 0.0% for all three
periods; risk-free interest rates of 5.66%-6.75% for options granted during the
year ended December 31, 2000, 4.95%-5.74% for options granted during the year
ended December 31, 1999 and 4.77%-5.71% for options granted during the year
ended December 31, 1998; a weighted average expected option term of 4-7 years
for 2000, 5-6 years for 1999 and 4-7 years for 1998; and a volatility factor of
50.00% for 2000, 45.59% for 1999 and 40.69% for 1998.
Tax benefits resulting from the disqualifying dispositions of shares acquired
under the Company's employee incentive stock option plan reduced taxes
currently payable by $828 and $122 in 2000 and 1999, respectively. These tax
benefits are credited to additional paid-in-capital.
11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
OPERATING LEASES
During 2000, the office space the Company leases for use as its headquarters
that was previously owned by a related party, was sold to independent
investors. Rent in the amount of $121, $312 and $286 was paid to the related
party in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company leases space and
various equipment under operating leases expiring at various dates with some
leases cancelable upon 30 to 90 days notice. The leases require payment of
taxes, insurance and maintenance costs in addition to rental payments.
Future minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases are
summarized as follows: 2001, $9,651; 2002, $6,946; 2003, $5,903; 2004, $3,285;
2005, 821; $1,066 thereafter.
Rental expense under all operating leases was $11,415, $12,187 and $10,226 for
2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.
38
39
LITIGATION
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is, from time to time,
threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits, including
discrimination and harassment and other similar claims. The Company maintains
insurance in such amounts and with such coverages and deductibles as management
believes are reasonable. The principal risks that the Company insures against
are workers' compensation, personal injury, bodily injury, property damage,
professional malpractice, errors and omissions, employment practices liability
and fidelity losses. The Company does not believe that it is involved in any
litigation which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on its results of operation or financial condition.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain executive
officers which provide for minimum compensation, salary and continuation of
certain benefits for a one to three year period under certain circumstances.
The agreements also provide for a payment of one to three times their annual
salary and average annual bonus if a change in control (as defined) of the
Company occurs and include a covenant against competition with the Company that
extends for one year after termination for any reason. In addition, the Company
has entered into employment agreements with certain key employees which provide
for a payment of one to two times their annual salary and average annual bonus
if a change in control (as defined) of the Company occurs and include a
covenant against competition with the Company that extends for one year after
termination for any reason. The Company's liability at December 31, 2000, would
have been approximately $8,230 in the event of a change in control or $2,795 if
all of the employees under contract were to be terminated by the Company
without good cause (as defined) under these contracts.
NOTE PAYABLE GUARANTEE
In March 1999, the Company guaranteed a note payable by one of its former
officers. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the balance of this note was
approximately $1,849 and $1,779, respectively. The note matured on December 31,
2000 and is currently unpaid.
12. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
The Company's non-cash investing and financing activities and cash payments for
interest and income taxes were as follows:

15. TENDER OFFER - STOCK REPURCHASE
On November 6, 2000, the Company announced a modified Dutch Auction tender
offer, consisting of an offer to purchase up to 10,000 shares of its common
stock at a purchase price between $5.50 and $4.75 per share net to the seller
in cash, without interest. The tender offer concluded on December 5, 2000,
whereby the Company purchased approximately 10,000 shares at $5.50 per share.
This repurchase was funded by cash and approximately $55,000 of debt from
existing bank lines of which $10,000 was repaid as of December 31, 2000. Costs
incurred to effect the transaction were $759.
