1.                                       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 28, 2003, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002 have been prepared by the Company, without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 28, 2003 and the results of operations and the cash flows for the periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002 have been made.

 

Effective December 28, 2002, we changed our fiscal year to end on the Saturday closest to December 31.  Subsequent to this change, our fiscal quarters will end on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter.  This change in year and quarter end did not have a material impact on our operations.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 28, 2002 annual report to shareholders.

 

Comprehensive loss (i.e. net loss plus available-for-sale securities valuation adjustments) for the three and six months ended June 28, 2003 was $168,000 and $484,000, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 was $3,184,000 and $20,274,000, respectively.

 

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company fully adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  SFAS No. 141 requires business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and broadens the criteria for recording intangible assets other than goodwill.

 

SFAS No. 142 no longer allows the amortization of purchased goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. Instead companies must test such assets for impairment at least annually.  The Company evaluated its intangible assets as of January 1, 2002 and again at January 1, 2003 and determined that the customer list had a determinable life while the tradename did not.  Effective January 1, 2002 the Company ceased amortization of the tradename asset.

 

SFAS No. 142 prescribes a two-phase process for impairment testing of goodwill.  The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment.  The Company completed its first phase impairment analysis for 2003 during the first quarter and found no indication of impairment of its recorded goodwill, although the valuation determined the fair value of the Infrastructure and Solutions reporting units to approximate their carrying value.

 

Upon the initial adoption of SFAS No. 142 during the first quarter of 2002, there was an indication of impairment of our goodwill found in the first phase testing.  Accordingly, we completed the second phase testing in June 2002.  Based on the impairment tests, we recognized a transitional impairment of $16,389,000 in the first quarter of 2002 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill for our Infrastructure reporting unit to its implied fair value.  We did not record a tax benefit for this adjustment, as our current operating performance requires the establishment of a reserve against the deferred tax asset created by this impairment.  The transition impairment was required because economic conditions at the time of testing (including declining operating margins and lower demand for our services) reduced the estimated future

expected performance for this operating unit.  Under SFAS 142, the impairment adjustment recognized at adoption of the new rules was reflected as a cumulative effect of accounting change in our first quarter 2002 statement of operations.  Impairment adjustments recognized after adoption, if any, generally are required to be recognized as operating expenses.

 

For the six months ended June 28, 2003, no goodwill or other intangibles were acquired, impaired or disposed.  Other intangibles consisted of the following:

The customer list is scheduled to be fully amortized by 2015 with corresponding amortization estimated to be approximately $800,000 per year.

 

We adopted FASB 145, “Recission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendments of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections” as of December 28, 2002.  Upon the adoption of FASB 145, we reclassified the loss resulting from the exinguishment of debt as a separate component in income from continuing operations.

 

Effective December 29, 2002, the Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure” (“FAS 148”), which amends Statement of Financial Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”).  We have continued to apply APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for our five stock-based compensation plans.  FAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, FAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of FAS 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements of the effects of stock-based compensation.

 

Had compensation cost for our stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates as calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 148, our pro forma net loss and loss per share for the three and six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002 would have been the amounts indicated below:

2.                                       Long-term Debt

 

Effective April 11, 2002, the Company consummated an asset-based revolving credit facility with up to $55,000,000 of availability.  The Company reduced the level of availability to $45,000,000 following the sale of its corporate headquarters building on May 15, 2002.  Borrowings under this credit agreement are secured by all of the Company’s assets.  Under the revolving credit agreement, which matures on April 10, 2005, the Company must take advances or pay down the outstanding balance daily.  The Company can, however, choose to request fixed-term advances of one, two, or three months for a portion of the outstanding balance on the line of credit. Daily advances on the line of credit bear interest at the Wall Street Journal’s “Prime Rate” plus .75% (4.75% on June 28, 2003) while the fixed-term advances bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus 3.0%.  The credit agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of .50% of the unused portion of the line plus an annual administration fee of $50,000.  The agreement restricts, among other things, the payment of dividends, establishes limits on capital expenditures and requires the Company to maintain a minimum accounts payable turnover ratio.  The Company believes it will be able to continue to meet the requirements of the new agreement for the foreseeable future and as of June 28, 2003 did not have any borrowings against this agreement.

4.                                       Net Income Per Common Share

 

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) are presented in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.”  Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  The difference between weighted-average common shares and average common and common equivalent shares used in computing diluted EPS is the result of outstanding stock options.  Options to purchase 2,018,000 and 1,832,000 shares of common stock were outstanding at the end of the periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of common stock equivalents because they were anti-dilutive.

 

5.                                       Restructuring

 

In December 2000, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $7,000,000.  Of this charge, $2,600,000 related to workforce reductions (primarily non-billable staff), and $4,400,000 related to lease termination and abandonment costs (net of sub-lease income), including an amount for assets to be disposed of in conjunction with this consolidation.  The restructuring accrual for workforce reductions has been fully used as of December 28, 2002.

 

A summary of activity with respect to the restructuring charge for the six-month period ended June 28, 2003 is as follows:

Item 2.

 

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

Six Months Ended June 28, 2003 and June 30, 2002

 

The following discussion of the results of our operations and our financial condition should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes to consolidated financial statements in this 10-Q, our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and our other investor communications.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that involve significant judgments and uncertainties and potentially result in materially different outcomes under different assumptions and conditions.  Application of these policies is particularly important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations.  We believe the accounting policies described below meet these characteristics.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue for our staffing business and the majority of our business solutions and infrastructure business as services are performed or products are delivered.  Certain of our outsourcing and help desk engagements provide for a specific level of service each month for which we bill a standard monthly fee.  Revenue for these engagements is recognized in monthly installments over the period of the contract.  In some such contracts we invoice in advance for two or more months of service.  When we do this, the revenue is deferred and recognized over the term of the invoicing agreement.

 

In certain client situations, where the nature of the engagement requires it, we utilize the services of other companies in our industry.  If these services are provided under an arrangement where-by we agree to retain only a fixed portion of the amount billed to the client, to cover our management and administrative costs, the amount billed to the client is classified as subsupplier revenue.  All revenue derived from services provided by our employees or other independent contractors working directly for us is recorded as direct revenue.

 

We generally do not enter into fixed price engagements except as summarized above.

 

In all of our services, risk associated with client satisfaction exists.  Although management feels these risks are adequately addressed by our adherence to proven project management methodologies and other procedures, the potential exists for future revenue charges relating to unresolved issues.

 

Bad Debt

 

Each accounting period we determine an amount to be set aside to cover potentially uncollectible accounts.  Our determination is based upon an evaluation of accounts receivable for risk associated with a client’s ability to make contractually required payments.  These determinations require considerable judgment in assessing the ultimate potential for collection of these receivables and include reviewing the financial stability of the client, the clients’ willingness to pay, and current market conditions.  If our evaluation of a client’s ability to pay is incorrect, we may incur future charges.

 

9



 

Goodwill and Intangible Impairment

 

We evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets on a periodic basis.  This evaluation relies on assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets.  If these estimates or related assumptions change, we may be required to recognize impairment charges.

 

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, effective January 1, 2002 we ceased amortization of certain intangible assets including goodwill.  Intangible assets with definite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  Also in conjunction with the adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 142, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge during the first quarter of 2002 of $16.389 million.  This impairment was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as of January 1, 2002, and therefore did not impact operating income.  The Company completed its impairment analysis for 2003 during the first quarter and found no indication of impairment of its recorded goodwill although the valuation determined the fair value of the Infrastructure and Solutions reporting units to approximate their carrying value.

 

Deferred Taxes

 

We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized for the effect of temporary differences between reported income and income considered taxable by the taxing authorities.  SFAS No. 109 also requires the resulting deferred tax assets to be reduced by a valuation allowance if some portion or all of the deferred tax asset is not expected to be realized.  Based upon prior taxable income and estimates of future taxable income, we expect our deferred tax assets, net of the established valuation allowance, will be fully realized in the future.  If actual future taxable income is less than we anticipate from our estimates, we may be required to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets resulting in additional income tax expense which will be recorded in our consolidated statement of operations.

 

Benefit Accruals

 

Each accounting period we estimate an amount to accrue for medical costs incurred but not yet reported (IBNR) under our self-funded employee medical insurance plans.  We base our determination on an evaluation of past rates of claim payouts and trends in the amount of payouts.  This determination requires significant judgment and assumes past patterns are representative of future payment patterns.  A significant shift in usage and payment patterns within our medical plans could necessitate significant adjustments to these accruals in future accounting periods.

 

Restructuring

 

We recorded a restructuring charge and reserves associated with restructuring plans approved by management in December 2000.  The remaining reserve consists of an estimate pertaining to real estate lease obligations.  Factors such as the ability to obtain subleases, the creditworthiness of sublessees, and the ability to negotiate early termination agreements with lessors could materially affect this real estate reserve.  While we believe our current estimates regarding lease obligations are adequate, our inability to sublet the remaining space, or obtain payments from sublessees could necessitate significant adjustments to these estimates in the future.

Revenue provided directly for the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 decreased 15.0% and 15.8%, respectively, from the comparable quarter a year ago.  However, we derived a substantially greater percentage of our revenue from direct billings during these periods in 2003 as compared to the same periods last year.  This increase in the percentage of direct revenue was due principally to the decrease in revenue from certain Managed Services clients, most of which had been provided through subsuppliers.  Our subsupplier revenue is mainly pass-through revenue with associated fees providing minimal profit.

 

The decrease in revenue resulted primarily from the decrease in the number of consultants we had billable during these periods, which is reflective of an overall reduction in spending for the IT services we provide.  Our consultant staff has decreased by 420 consultants from June 30, 2002.  In addition, we continue to experience decreasing average bill rates due to pricing pressures imposed by our clients.  These pressures have resulted in a 9% reduction in average bill rates within our staffing business thus far this year.  As demand for the services our

 

11



 

industry provides has declined, many clients have taken the opportunity to demand pricing concessions and we have had to concede lower prices to retain our relationship with these clients.

 

Salaries, contracted services and direct charges primarily represent our payroll and benefit costs associated with billable consultants.  Comparing the 2003 periods to the 2002 periods, these expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of revenue.  We have been successful at managing our direct labor rates downward in response to decreasing bill rates.  We have been able to do this by passing billing rate decreases through to our consultants in the form of labor rate decreases where possible and increasing productivity levels of our billable technical staff.  The shifting of our revenue mix to include more direct revenue, with better margins, and less low margin subsupplier revenue also played a role in decreasing this category of expense as a percentage of revenue.  Although we continuously attempt to control the factors which affect this category of expense, there can be no assurance we will be able to maintain or improve this level.

 

Selling, administrative and other operating (SG&A) costs include commissions paid to sales representatives and recruiters, location costs, and other administrative costs.  This category of costs represented 18.2% of total revenue for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003, up from 17.4% and 17.1% for the three-and six-month periods in 2002, respectively.  While the significant decline in our total revenue, especially subsupplier revenue, has caused these costs to increase as a percentage of total revenue, the actual amounts of these costs have decreased considerably during these periods.  These decreases are the result of our ongoing efforts to manage costs downward as demand for our services and our average billing rates decline.  We have managed these costs downward primarily by reducing discretionary spending for non-billable travel, imposing wage controls on administrative and management personnel, eliminating office space where possible, and by reducing the number of non-technical personnel we employ.  We are committed to continuing to manage this category of expense to the right level for our company; however, there can be no assurance this category of cost will not increase as a percentage of income if our headcount and billing rates continue to decline.

 

Amortization of intangible assets decreased slightly in the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 compared to the same periods last year.

 

In the second quarter of 2002 we sold our corporate headquarters building, incurring a loss of $1.9 million.  Net proceeds of $16.4 million were used to reduce the balance on our line of credit.  The Company remains a major tenant in the building following the sale.

 

Non-operating income, consisting primarily of interest income, declined slightly during the three months ended June 28, 2003 compared to the same quarter a year ago.  While invested cash balances were higher during the 2003 period, rates of return were lower than in the prior year.  Non-operating income, consisting primarily of interest income, declined during the six months ended June 28, 2003 compared to the same period a year ago.  The higher level of interest income in the 2002 period resulted from significant cash investments during the first half of the six months ended June 30, 2002.  The cash invested during this time was then immediately used to reduce outstanding debt.

 

Interest expense during the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 decreased significantly from the same periods last year.  The reduction in interest expense is the result of lower levels of borrowings and reduced interest rates subsequent to the April 11, 2002 debt restructuring.  During the second quarter of 2003 we maintained a zero balance on our line of credit.  Debt levels have declined to zero primarily as a result of using cash invested during the first quarter of 2002 and proceeds from the sale of our corporate headquarters building in May 2002 to reduce debt.  We are also experiencing a decreased need to borrow to support accounts receivable.  As our revenue, and accordingly, our receivable balance declined throughout 2002 and the first half of 2003, the cash collected from accounts receivable was used to reduce debt.

 

We completed the restructuring of our credit facility with GE Capital in the second quarter of 2002.  Upon the refinancing of our debt, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $744,000 primarily related to make-whole payments associated with our 1998 Note Purchase Agreement and the write-off of costs associated with previous financings.

We adopted the full provisions of SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of 2002 and recorded an impairment charge of approximately $16.4 million.  SFAS No. 142 no longer allows the amortization of purchased goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets instead companies must test such assets for impairment at least annually.  Based on the impairment tests, during the six months ended June 30, 2002, we reduced the carrying value of goodwill for our Infrastructure reporting unit to its implied fair value.  The impairment was required because economic conditions at the time of testing reduced the estimated future expected performance for this reporting unit.  Following the initial adoption of SFAS No. 142, at least annually, we are required to test our remaining goodwill for impairment.  We performed these tests as of January 1, 2003 and found no indication of impairment although the carrying value of the Infrastructure and the Solutions reporting units approximated their fair values.  Any significant deterioration in the outlook for these reporting units could result in future impairment of the associated goodwill.

 

We recorded no income tax benefit during the three months ended June 28, 2003 as non-deductible items (primarily travel meals and entertainment) negated the tax benefit of our operating loss.  During the six months ended June 28, 2003 we recorded an income tax benefit of $57,000.  This is reflective of an overall tax benefit rate of 10.5% compared to a statutory tax benefit rate of 35%.  This reduced rate results primarily from non-deductible meals and entertainment expenses.

 

As a result of the factors discussed above, we reported a net loss in the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2003 of $168,000 and $484,000, respectively, compared with a net loss of $3.2 million and $20.3 million, respectively, for the comparable periods of 2002.

 

The decrease in technical consultants is reflective of the overall slowness in the economy which has resulted in an overall reduction in spending for the IT services we provide.  Administrative and management personnel decreased as a result of our continuing efforts to contain our operating costs.

Working capital at June 28, 2003 was up slightly from December 28, 2002.  During the second quarter of 2003, we have been able to keep our line of credit at zero and maintain cash and cash equivalents in the $5.0 million range.  Accounts receivable decreased from December 28, 2002 to June 28, 2003.  We continue to devote additional resources to pursue the timely collection of our receivables.  The reduction in our accounts receivable balance was

 

13



 

offset by the decline in accounts payable, which is reflective of the lower usage of subsuppliers.  The ratio of current assets to current liabilities increased at June 28, 2003, as compared to at December 28, 2002.

 

Historically, we have been able to support internal growth in our business with internally generated funds. Our primary need for working capital is to support accounts receivable resulting from our business and to fund the time lag between payroll disbursement and receipt of fees billed to clients.  Most recently, as revenues and payroll have declined, our need for working capital to support accounts receivable has also declined, resulting in a reduction in our need to borrow.  When our revenue and payroll begin to grow again, we would expect our need for working capital to once again increase.

 

During 2002, reduction of debt and associated borrowing costs was one of our top priorities.  In pursuit of this priority, effective April 11, 2002, we consummated an asset-based revolving credit agreement with up to $55.0 million of availability.  This borrowing facility reduced our cost of borrowing from 9% to prime plus .75%, or 4.75% currently.  To reduce our cost of financing even further, we reduced the level of availability under this credit agreement to $45.0 million following the sale of our corporate headquarters building on May 15, 2002.  We have been successful at reducing our borrowings on our line of credit to zero earlier this year and they have remained at zero throughout the quarter ended June 28, 2003.  At June 28, 2003 our borrowing capability was up to $22.2 million under our credit facility if business and working capital needs warrant it.  Borrowings under the credit agreement are secured by all of our assets.

 

The revolving credit agreement requires us to take advances or pay down the outstanding balance on the line of credit daily.  However, we can request fixed-term advances of one, two, or three months for a portion of the outstanding balance on the line of credit.  The daily advances on the line of credit bear interest at the Wall Street Journal’s “Prime Rate” plus ..75% while the fixed-term advances bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus 3.0%.  The credit agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of .50% of the unused portion of the line plus an annual administration fee of $50,000.  The agreement restricts, among other things, the payment of dividends, establishes limits on capital expenditures and requires us to maintain a minimum accounts payable turnover ratio.  We believe we will be able to continue to meet the requirements of the agreement.  The credit agreement matures on April 10, 2005.

 

During the three-month period ended June 28, 2003, we made capital expenditures totaling $498,000 compared to $403,000 in the three-month period ended June 30, 2002.  These capital expenditures were funded with internally generated funds.  We continue to tightly control capital expenditures to preserve working capital.

Market Conditions, Business Outlook and Risks to Our Business

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

The statements contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” including without limitation, our statements relating to prospects for our business, recovery of the IT services industry, our working capital needs and sufficiency of our working capital, the continued need of current and prospective customers for our services and our ability to win that business, the effects of competition and our ability to respond to competitive conditions, the availability and utilization of qualified professional staff, our ability to increase billing rates as labor and benefit costs increase, our ability to maintain gross margin levels and control operating cost increases, and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability are forward looking statements made under the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  Words such as “believes,” “intends,” “possible,” “expects,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or “plans” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward looking statements.  Such statements are based on management’s current expectations as of the date of this document but involve risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward looking statements.  Investors are cautioned to consider these forward looking statements in light of important factors which may result in variations from results contemplated by such forward looking statements including, but not limited to, the risk factors discussed below.

 

Several market conditions are affecting our industry.  Increased price competition in the area of technical staff augmentation has created pressure on billable hourly rates, and clients have been requesting increasingly lower cost models for staff augmentation services.  As a result, we have encountered lower billing rates for quite some time.  Management expects that clients will continue, for the foreseeable future, to request lower cost offerings for staff augmentation services through e-procurement systems, extremely competitive bidding processes, the granting of various types of discounts and the use of off-shore resources.  Our ability to respond to customer requests for lower pricing or to provide other low cost solutions in this area of our business will have a direct effect on our performance.  Management expects competitive conditions in the area of technical staff augmentation to continue for the foreseeable future, although it expects that demand for these services will increase as the general economy begins to recover.

 

We are considering various low-cost staffing model alternatives, including relationships with e-procurement software vendors, at least in partial response to these developments in the industry.  We have established a relationship with an offshore vendor.  We have also implemented new software and internet capabilities in our recruiting function.  Although management believes these changes will have a positive effect on our results, there is no guarantee that the changes alone will be successful.

 

Staff augmentation continues to represent more than half of total revenues (revenue from services provided directly to client (direct revenue) plus revenue from services provided to our clients by subsuppliers (subsupplier revenue)) and over half of our direct revenue.  While we expect the industry slowdown to begin to reverse in the latter part of 2003, there can be no assurance as to when, or if, revenue will return to previous levels.  Our ability to respond to the conditions outlined above will bear directly on our performance.

 

As a result of the pricing and other competitive pressures affecting the technical staff augmentation area of our business, management has sought and plans to continue to seek new customers for our other service offerings.  In 2003, management plans to concentrate on staff augmentation/managed services in Fortune 500 companies, business solutions for small and medium-sized businesses, and business opportunities with its technology and product partners.  In addition, we plan to develop a low cost staffing delievery model, expand our offshore service capabilities and develop relationships with sales channel partners with which we will share sales leads.  While we believe these areas of our business present opportunities to grow our business, growth in these areas will depend on improvement in the economy and spending in the overall IT services market, our ability to compete with other vendors and our success in obtaining new clients.

 

Our ability to quickly identify, attract and retain qualified technical personnel, especially when recovery begins, will affect our results of operations and ability to grow in the future.  Competition for qualified personnel is

 

 

15



 

intense, and if we are unable to hire the talent required by our client in a cost-effective manner, it will affect our ability to grow our business. In addition to our ability to control labor costs, our ability to control employee benefit costs and other employee-related costs will affect our future performance.  In an effort to contain our benefits costs, we implemented substantial changes to our benefits plans in fiscal year 2002 and have implemented additional changes in 2003.  While we believe the changes we implemented will be effective, actual results may vary due to factors we cannot control such as rising medical costs, the amount of medical services used by our employees and similar factors.

 

Controlling operating costs while attempting not to impact our ability to respond to our clients also is a factor in our future success.  We have streamlined our operations by consolidating offices, reducing administrative and management personnel and continuing to review our company structure for more efficient methods of operating our business and delivering our services.  We may not be able to continue to reduce costs without affecting our ability to deliver service to our clients and therefore may choose to forego particular cost reductions if we believe it would be prudent to do so for the future business of the Company.

 

Terms and conditions standard to computer consulting services contracts also present a risk to our business.  In general, our clients can cancel or reduce their contracts on short notice.  Loss of a significant client relationship or a significant portion thereof, a significant number of relationships or a major contract could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

While we believe our working capital will be sufficient for the foreseeable needs of our business, significant rapid growth in our business could create a need for additional working capital.  An inability to obtain additional working capital, should it be required, could have an adverse material effect on our business.  We expect to be able to comply with the requirements of our credit agreement; however, failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Item 3.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to certain market risks on our line of credit agreement because of the variable interest rate charged.  Market risk is the potential loss arising from the adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates.  Market risk is estimated as the potential increase in fair value resulting from a hypothetical one percent increase in interest rates which assuming an average outstanding debt balance of $5.0 million would result in an annual interest expense increase of approximately $50,000.

 

Item 4.

 

4(i)  Controls and Procedures

 

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Michael J. LaVelle, and Chief Financial Officer, John T. Paprocki, have reviewed the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 28, 2003.  While there can be no assurance these controls will be effective in all circumstances, based upon their review, these officers believe that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information related to the Company is made known to them by others within the Company.

 

(b)  Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the quarter covered by this report or from the end of the reporting period to the date of this report on Form 10-Q.
