PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) that are not purely historical statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or financial condition, or state other forward-looking information. Those statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The “forward-looking” information is based on various factors and was derived using numerous assumptions. In some cases, you can identify these so-called forward-looking statements by words like “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of those words and other comparable words. You should be aware that those statements only reflect our predictions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual events or results may differ substantially. Important factors that could cause our actual results to be materially different from the forward-looking statements include (but are not limited to) the following:

(1)  
the impact of the general economy and economic uncertainty on our business;
(2)  
risks associated with the operation of our business generally, including:
a. client demand for our services and solutions;
b. maintaining a balance of our supply of skills and resources with client demand;
c. effectively competing in a highly competitive market;
d. protecting our clients’ and our data and information;
e. risks from international operations;
f. obtaining favorable pricing to reflect services provided;
g. adapting to changes in technologies and offerings; and
h. risk of loss of one or more significant software vendors;
(3)  legal liabilities, including intellectual property protection and infringement;
(4)  risks associated with managing growth through acquisitions and organically; and
(5)  the risks detailed from time to time with our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

This discussion is not exhaustive, but is designed to highlight important factors that may impact our forward-looking statements. Because the factors referred to above, as well as the statements included under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, including documents incorporated by reference therein and herein, could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this annual report to conform such statements to actual results.

All forward-looking statements, express or implied, included in this report and the documents we incorporate by reference and that are attributable to Perficient, Inc. (“Perficient”) are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that Perficient or any persons acting on our behalf may issue.

PERFICIENT, INC.
NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2013
 
1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Perficient, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, certain footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed with the SEC in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 may not be indicative of the results for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.
 
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues are primarily derived from professional services provided on a time and materials basis. For time and material contracts, revenues are recognized and billed by multiplying the number of hours expended in the performance of the contract by the established billing rates. For fixed fee projects, revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours. Amounts invoiced and collected in excess of revenues recognized are classified as deferred revenues. On many projects the Company is also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses such as airfare, lodging, and meals.  These reimbursements are included as a component of revenues. Revenues from software and hardware sales are generally recorded on a gross basis considering the Company’s role as a principal in the transaction.  On rare occasions, the Company enters into a transaction where it is not the principal.  In these cases, revenue is recorded on a net basis.
 
Unbilled revenues represent the project time and expenses that have been incurred, but not yet billed to the client, prior to the end of the fiscal period.  For time and materials projects, the client is invoiced for the amount of hours worked multiplied by the billing rates as stated in the contract. For fixed fee arrangements, the client is invoiced according to the agreed-upon schedule detailing the amount and timing of payments in the contract.  Clients are typically billed monthly for services provided during that month, but can be billed on a more or less frequent basis as determined by the contract.  If the time and expenses are worked/incurred and approved at the end of a fiscal period and the invoice has not yet been sent to the client, the amount is recorded as unbilled revenue once the Company verifies all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.
 
Revenues are recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of the customer arrangement exists; (2) fees are fixed and determinable; (3) delivery and acceptance have occurred; and (4) collectability is deemed probable. The Company’s policy for revenue recognition in instances where multiple deliverables are sold contemporaneously to the same customer is in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 985-605, Software – Revenue Recognition, ASC Subtopic 605-25, Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements, and ASC Section 605-10-S99 (Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13, Revenue Recognition). Specifically, if the Company enters into contracts for the sale of services and software or hardware, then the Company evaluates whether each element should be accounted for separately by considering the following criteria: (1) whether the deliverables have value to the client on a stand-alone basis; and (2) whether delivery or performance of the undelivered item or items is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company (only if the arrangement includes a general right of return related to the delivered item). Further, for sales of software and services, the Company also evaluates whether the services are essential to the functionality of the software and if it has fair value evidence for each deliverable. If the Company has concluded that the separation criteria are met, then it accounts for each deliverable in the transaction separately, based on the relevant revenue recognition policies. Generally, all deliverables of the Company’s multiple element arrangements meet these criteria and are accounted for separately, with the arrangement consideration allocated among the deliverables using vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price. As a result, the Company generally recognizes software and hardware sales upon delivery to the customer and services consistent with the policies described herein.
 

 
7

 
 
Further, delivery of software and hardware sales, when sold contemporaneously with services, can generally occur at varying times depending on the specific client project arrangement. Delivery of services generally occurs over a period of time consistent with the timeline as outlined in the client contract.

There are no significant cancellation or termination-type provisions for the Company’s software and hardware sales. Contracts for professional services provide for a general right, to the client or the Company, to cancel or terminate the contract within a given period of time (generally 10 to 30 days’ notice is required). The client is responsible for any time and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation or termination of the contract.
 
The Company may provide multiple services under the terms of an arrangement and is required to assess whether one or more units of accounting are present.  Service fees are typically accounted for as one unit of accounting, as fair value evidence for individual tasks or milestones is not available.  The Company follows the guidelines discussed above in determining revenues; however, certain judgments and estimates are made and used to determine revenues recognized in any accounting period. If estimates are revised, material differences may result in the amount and timing of revenues recognized for a given period.
 
Revenues are presented net of taxes assessed by governmental authorities.  Sales taxes are generally collected and subsequently remitted on all software and hardware sales and certain services transactions as appropriate.
 
 
3. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC Topic 718”). Under this method, the Company recognizes share-based compensation ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period. In addition, pursuant to ASC Topic 718, the Company is required to estimate the amount of expected forfeitures when calculating share-based compensation, instead of accounting for forfeitures as they occur

Stock Award Plans
 
The Company made various award grants under the 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan prior to May 2012.  In May 2012, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), which had been previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.  The Incentive Plan allows for the granting of various types of stock awards, not to exceed a total of 2.5 million shares, to eligible individuals.  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the Incentive Plan and determines the terms of all stock awards made under the Incentive Plan.
 
Stock-based compensation cost recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $2.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively, which for both periods included $0.4 million of expense for retirement savings plan contributions.  The associated current and future income tax benefit recognized was $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  As of March 31, 2013, there was $17.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of two years.

7. Business Combinations
 
Acquisition of PointBridge
 
On February 8, 2012, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of PointBridge pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement.  PointBridge was based in Chicago, Illinois, and was a business and technology consulting firm focused on collaboration, web content management, unified communications and business intelligence, primarily leveraging Microsoft technologies. The acquisition of PointBridge further solidified the Company’s position among the largest and most capable Microsoft systems integrator consulting firms, as well as extended the Company’s presence in Chicago, Milwaukee and Boston.
 
The Company’s total allocable purchase price consideration was $20.5 million. The purchase price was comprised of $14.4 million in cash paid and $6.1 million of Company common stock issued at closing. The Company incurred approximately $0.7 million in transaction costs, which were expensed when incurred.

The Company allocated the total purchase price consideration between tangible assets, identified intangible assets, liabilities, and goodwill as follows (in millions):

On May 1, 2013, the Company acquired TriTek, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger. Refer to Note 11, Subsequent Events, for further discussion.
 

8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, or net liabilities assumed, in a business combination. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, the Company performs an annual impairment test of goodwill. The Company evaluates goodwill as of October 1 each year and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.  

Other intangible assets include customer relationships, non-compete arrangements, trade names, and internally developed software, which are being amortized over the assets’ estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from one to eight years. Amortization of customer relationships, non-compete arrangements, trade names, and internally developed software is considered an operating expense and is included in “Amortization” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its identifiable intangible assets, taking into consideration any events or circumstances that might result in a lack of recoverability or revised useful life.

9. Line of Credit
 
On May 23, 2011, the Company renewed and extended the term of its Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), U.S. Bank National Association, and Bank of America, N.A.  The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings up to a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million, subject to a commitment increase of $25.0 million.  The Credit Agreement also allows for the issuance of letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $500,000 at any one time; outstanding letters of credit reduce the credit available for revolving credit borrowings.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company had an outstanding letter of credit in the amount of $0.2 million to secure an office space lease. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged to secure the credit facility.  
 
All outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement become due and payable no later than the final maturity date of May 23, 2015.  Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at the Company’s option of SVB’s prime rate (4.00% on March 31, 2013) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or one-month LIBOR (0.20% on March 31, 2013) plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%.  The additional margin amount is dependent on the level of outstanding borrowings. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $43.8 million of maximum borrowing capacity.  An annual commitment fee of 0.30% is incurred on the unused portion of the line of credit.

The Company is required to comply with various financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. Specifically, the Company is required to maintain a ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) plus stock compensation and minus income taxes paid and capital expenditures to interest expense and scheduled payments due for borrowings on a trailing three months basis annualized of not less than 2.00 to 1.00 and a ratio of current maturities of long-term debt to EBITDA plus stock compensation and minus income taxes paid and capital expenditures of not more than 2.75 to 1.00.
 
At March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement and expects to remain in compliance during the next 12 months.

10. Income Taxes
 
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions.  The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. income tax returns or the statute has passed on returns for the years through and including 2009. As of March 31, 2013, the IRS has proposed no significant adjustments to any of the Company’s tax positions. The Company was notified in January 2013 that its 2011 U.S. income tax return will be audited by the IRS. 

Under the provisions of the ASC Subtopic 740-10-25, Income Taxes - Recognition, the Company had an unrecognized tax benefit of $0.3 million as of March 31, 2013.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 21.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to 40.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to the research and development tax credit for 2012, which was approved by Congress in January 2013 and was recorded in the first quarter as a discrete item.  The Company also recorded a research and development tax credit for 2013 in the first quarter, which further reduced its effective tax rate. In addition to the research and development tax credit, the difference between the Company’s federal statutory rate of 35% and effective tax rate relates primarily to state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, and permanent non-deductible items such as non-deductible executive compensation and 50% of meals and entertainment expenses.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company’s net current deferred tax asset was $0.1 million and its net non-current deferred tax asset was $0.6 million.  Generally, deferred tax assets are related to stock compensation, accruals and net operating losses of acquired companies.  Net current deferred tax assets are recorded in “Other current assets” and net non-current deferred tax assets are recorded in “Other non-current assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

 
11.  Subsequent Events
 
     On May 1, 2013, the Company acquired TriTek, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, for approximately $18.5 million, of which approximately $13.2 million was cash and $5.3 million was Company common stock issued at closing. TriTek is an IBM-focused enterprise content management and business process management consulting firm. The acquisition of TriTek will further enhance the Company’s existing capabilities and further positions the Company as the IBM solution provider of choice for enterprises across North America.
 

12.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” that requires entities to disclose either on the face of or in the notes to the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of AOCI. For items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into net income in their entirety, entities must disclose the effect of the reclassification on each affected net income item. For items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, entities must provide a cross reference to other required U.S. GAAP disclosures. This ASU does not change the items currently reported in other comprehensive income and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012 and interim periods within those years. The adoption of these provisions did not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Overview
 
We are an information technology consulting firm serving Forbes Global 2000 and other large enterprise companies with a primary focus on the United States. We help our clients gain competitive advantage by using Internet-based technologies to make their businesses more responsive to market opportunities and threats, strengthen relationships with their customers, suppliers and partners, improve productivity, and reduce information technology costs. We design, build, and deliver business-driven technology solutions using third party software products.

Our solutions enable our clients to operate a real-time enterprise that dynamically adapts business processes and the systems that support them to meet the changing demands of an increasingly global, Internet-driven, and competitive marketplace.

Services Revenues
 
Services revenues are derived from professional services that include developing, implementing, integrating, automating and extending business processes, technology infrastructure, and software applications. Most of our projects are performed on a time and materials basis, while a smaller portion of our revenues is derived from projects performed on a fixed fee basis. Fixed fee engagements represented approximately 10% of our services revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. For time and material projects, revenues are recognized and billed by multiplying the number of hours our professionals expend in the performance of the project by the established billing rates. For fixed fee projects, revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours. Amounts invoiced and collected in excess of revenues recognized are classified as deferred revenues. On most projects, we are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses such as airfare, lodging, and meals. These reimbursements are included as a component of revenues. The aggregate amount of reimbursed expenses will fluctuate depending on the location of our clients, the total number of our projects that require travel, and whether our arrangements with our clients provide for the reimbursement of travel and other project-related expenses.

Software and Hardware Revenues
 
Software and hardware revenues are derived from sales of third-party software and hardware. Revenues from sales of third-party software and hardware are generally recorded on a gross basis provided we act as a principal in the transaction. On rare occasions, we do not meet the requirements to be considered a principal in the transaction and act as an agent.  In these cases, revenues are recorded on a net basis. Software and hardware revenues are expected to fluctuate depending on our clients’ demand for these products.
 
If we enter into contracts for the sale of services and software or hardware, management evaluates whether each element should be accounted for separately by considering the following criteria: (1) whether the deliverables have value to the client on a stand-alone basis; and (2) whether delivery or performance of the undelivered item or items is considered probable and substantially in our control (only if the arrangement includes a general right of return related to the delivered item). Further, for sales of software and services, management also evaluates whether the services are essential to the functionality of the software and has fair value evidence for each deliverable. If management concludes that the separation criteria are met, then it accounts for each deliverable in the transaction separately, based on the relevant revenue recognition policies. Generally, all deliverables of our multiple element arrangements meet these criteria and are accounted for separately, with the arrangement consideration allocated among the deliverables using vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price. As a result, we generally recognize software and hardware sales upon delivery to the customer and services consistent with the policies described herein. 
 
Further, delivery of software and hardware sales, when sold contemporaneously with services, can generally occur at varying times depending on the specific client project arrangement. Delivery of services generally occurs over a period of time consistent with the timeline as outlined in the client contract.  
 
There are no significant cancellation or termination-type provisions for our software and hardware sales. Contracts for professional services provide for a general right, to the client or us, to cancel or terminate the contract within a given period of time (generally 10 to 30 days’ notice is required). The client is responsible for any time and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation or termination of the contract.

Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues consists primarily of cash and non-cash compensation and benefits, including bonuses and non-cash compensation related to equity awards.  Cost of revenues also includes the costs associated with subcontractors.  Third-party software and hardware costs, reimbursable expenses and other unreimbursed project-related expenses are also included in cost of revenues. Project-related expenses will fluctuate generally depending on outside factors including the cost and frequency of travel and the location of our clients. Cost of revenues does not include depreciation of assets used in the production of revenues which are primarily personal computers, servers, and other information technology related equipment.

Gross Margins
 
Our gross margins for services are affected by the utilization rates of our professionals (defined as the percentage of our professionals’ time billed to clients divided by the total available hours in the respective period), the salaries we pay our professionals, and the average billing rate we receive from our clients. If a project ends earlier than scheduled, we retain professionals in advance of receiving project assignments, or if demand for our services declines, our utilization rate will decline and adversely affect our gross margins. Gross margin percentages of third-party software and hardware sales are typically lower than gross margin percentages for services, and the mix of services and software and hardware for a particular period can significantly impact our total combined gross margin percentage for such period. In addition, gross margin for software and hardware sales can fluctuate due to pricing and other competitive pressures.  

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses are primarily composed of sales-related costs, general and administrative salaries, stock compensation expense, recruiting expense, office costs, bad debts, variable compensation costs, and other miscellaneous expenses.  We work to minimize selling costs by focusing on repeat business with existing clients and by accessing sales leads generated by our software vendors, most notably IBM, Oracle and Microsoft, whose products we use to design and implement solutions for our clients. These relationships enable us to reduce our selling costs and sales cycle times and increase win rates through leveraging our partners’ marketing efforts and endorsements.
 
Plans for Growth and Acquisitions
 
Our goal is to continue to build one of the leading independent information technology consulting firms by expanding our relationships with existing and new clients and through the continuation of our disciplined acquisition strategy.  Our future growth plan includes expanding our business with a primary focus on customers in the United States, both organically and through acquisitions  We also intend to further leverage our existing offshore capabilities to support our future growth and provide our clients flexible options for project delivery.

When analyzing revenue growth by base business compared to acquired companies in the Results of Operations section below, revenue attributable to base business is defined as revenue from an acquired company that has been owned for a full four quarters after the date of acquisition.

Services revenues increased 11% to $73.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $66.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The increase in services revenues is primarily due to the acquisitions during 2012, as shown in the table above.
 
Software and hardware revenues increased 70% to $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily due to an increase in initial and renewal software license sales. Reimbursable expenses decreased 10% to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. We do not realize any profit on reimbursable expenses.
 
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased 14% to $59.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $52.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The increase in cost of revenues is primarily related to costs associated with software and hardware sales, which increased 87% to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as a result of increased software sales at lower margins.  Cost of revenues related to services also increased due to an increase in the average number of professionals, including subcontractors, performing services to 1,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 1,456 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
 
Gross Margin. Gross margin increased 13% to $25.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $22.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 30.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 30.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to an increase in employment-related taxes. Services gross margin, excluding reimbursable expenses, increased to 33.8% or $24.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 33.1% or $21.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The increase in services gross margin is primarily a result of a higher average bill rate.  The average bill rate for our professionals, excluding subcontractors, increased to $121 per hour for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $117 per hour for the three months ended March 31, 2012, primarily due to improved pricing opportunities. The average bill rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 excluding offshore resources was $132 per hour compared to $127 per hour for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
 
Selling, General and Administrative. SG&A expenses increased 21% to $17.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  SG&A expenses, as a percentage of revenues, increased slightly to 21.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 19.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  General and administrative salaries increased as a percentage of revenues due to the promotion of billable personnel to management positions, which resulted in a reclassification of the associated cost.  In addition, professional fees increased as a percentage of revenues related to the research and development tax credit study, and bonus expense increased compared to the prior year period based on Company performance against 2013 goals.

Depreciation. Depreciation expense increased 48% to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in depreciation expense is mainly attributable to the addition of fixed assets from acquisitions during 2012.  Depreciation expense as a percentage of revenues was 0.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 0.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
 
Amortization. Amortization expense increased 14% to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in amortization expense is due to the addition of amortization related to acquired intangible assets during 2012.
 
Acquisition Costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized a benefit in acquisition-related costs of $25,000 representing the finalization of various acquisition-related items.  Acquisition-related costs were $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The acquisition-related costs incurred during the first quarter of 2012 were related to the acquisition of PointBridge.  Acquisition-related costs were incurred for legal, accounting, and valuation services performed by third parties.
 
Adjustment to Fair Value of Contingent Consideration. An adjustment of $0.2 million was made during the three months ended March 31, 2012 for the accretion of the fair value estimate for the earnings-based contingent consideration related to the Exervio acquisition.  No adjustment to the fair value of contingent consideration was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Provision for Income Taxes. We provide for federal, state and foreign income taxes at the applicable statutory rates adjusted for non-deductible expenses. Our effective tax rate decreased to 21.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 40.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 due mainly to the research and development tax credit for 2012 and 2013, which was enacted for both years in January 2013.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Operating Activities
 
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $0.5 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the primary components of operating cash flows were net income of $4.1 million plus non-cash charges of $5.4 million, offset by investments in working capital of $10.0 million.  The primary components of operating cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were net income of $3.0 million plus non-cash charges of $4.9 million, offset by investments in working capital of $6.0 million. The decrease in cash from operating activities is primarily related to the change in other assets, which was the result of recording a large insurance receivable in the first quarter of 2013. Our days sales outstanding as of March 31, 2013 decreased to 75 days from 78 days at March 31, 2012.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we used $0.5 million for acquisition-related costs and $2.5 million to purchase property and equipment and to develop certain software. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we used $14.4 million for acquisition-related costs and $0.4 million to purchase property and equipment and to develop certain software.  
 
Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we received proceeds of $21.9 million from our line of credit and we realized a tax benefit related to vesting of stock awards and stock option exercises plus proceeds from the exercise of stock options and sales of stock through the Employee Stock Purchase Plan of $0.3 million.  We made payments of $18.7 million on our line of credit and used $1.4 million to repurchase shares of our common stock through the stock repurchase program and $0.3 million to remit taxes withheld as part of a net share settlement of restricted stock vesting. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we received proceeds of $26.0 million from our line of credit and we realized a tax benefit related to vesting of stock awards and stock option exercises plus proceeds from the exercise of stock options and sales of stock through the Employee Stock Purchase Plan of $0.3 million.  We made payments of $19.8 million on our line of credit and used $0.4 million to repurchase shares of our common stock through the stock repurchase program and $0.2 million to remit taxes withheld as part of a net share settlement of restricted stock vesting.   
 
Availability of Funds from Bank Line of Credit Facility
 
On May 23, 2011, we renewed and extended the term of our Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), U.S. Bank National Association, and Bank of America, N.A.  The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings up to a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million, subject to a commitment increase of $25.0 million.  The Credit Agreement also allows for the issuance of letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $1.0 million at any one time; outstanding letters of credit reduce the credit available for revolving credit borrowings.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company had an outstanding letter of credit in the amount of $0.2 million to secure an office lease. Substantially all of our assets are pledged to secure the credit facility. 

All outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement become due and payable no later than the final maturity date of May 23, 2015.  Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at our option of SVB’s prime rate (4.00% on March 31, 2013) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or one-month LIBOR (0.20% on March 31, 2013) plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%.  The additional margin amount is dependent on the level of outstanding borrowings. As of March 31, 2013, we had $43.8 million of maximum borrowing capacity.  We incur an annual commitment fee of 0.30% on the unused portion of the line of credit.

At March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement and we expect to remain in compliance during the next 12 months.

Stock Repurchase Program
 
Prior to 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $70.0 million of our common stock. The repurchase program expires December 31, 2013.  
 
From time to time, we establish a written trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, pursuant to which we make a portion of our stock repurchases.  Additional repurchases will be at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate and will be made through open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors.   
  
Since the program’s inception on August 11, 2008, we have repurchased approximately $61.4 million of our outstanding common stock through March 31, 2013.

Lease Obligations
 
There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in lease obligations or other contractual obligations in the first three months of 2013.
 
Conclusion
 
Of the total cash and cash equivalents reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013 of $4.1 million, approximately $3.4 million was held by the Company’s Chinese operations and is considered to be indefinitely reinvested in those operations. The Company has no intention of repatriating cash from its Chinese operations in the foreseeable future.

We believe that the currently available funds, access to capital from our credit facility, and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements and other capital needs for the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our accounting policies are fully described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. We believe our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition, accounting for goodwill and intangible assets, purchase accounting, accounting for stock-based compensation, and income taxes.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Exchange Rate Sensitivity
 
We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates because we generate a portion of our revenues and incur a portion of our expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.  As of March 31, 2013, we were exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar, between the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Yuan, and between the U.S. dollar and the Indian Rupee.  We have not hedged foreign currency exposures related to transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. Our exposure to foreign currency risk is not significant.
 
Interest Rate Sensitivity
 
As of March 31, 2013, there was $6.0 million outstanding and $43.8 million of available borrowing capacity under our line of credit facility. Our interest expense will fluctuate as the interest rate for the line of credit floats based, at our option, on our lead lender’s prime rate plus a margin or the one-month LIBOR rate plus a margin. Based on the $6.0 million outstanding on the line of credit as of March 31, 2013, an increase in the interest rate of 100 basis points would add $60,000 of interest expense per year, which is not considered material to our financial position or results of operations.

We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $4.1 million at March 31, 2013 and $5.8 million at December 31, 2012.  The unrestricted cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates. Declines in interest rates, however, will reduce future interest income.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) during the three months ended March 31, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
Issuer Purchases of Securities
 
Prior to 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $70.0 million of our common stock. The repurchase program expires December 31, 2013.  The program could be suspended or discontinued at any time, based on market, economic, or business conditions.  The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by our management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, and other factors.
 
Since the program’s inception on August 11, 2008, we have repurchased approximately $61.4 million of our outstanding common stock through March 31, 2013.
