1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), which are unaudited, include the accounts of AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all entries necessary for a fair presentation of such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. These entries consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year or for any future period.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Please refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 9, 2012.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to asset impairments, accruals for self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, accounts receivable, contingencies and litigation, valuation and recognition of share-based payments and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting update that gives companies the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment. The Company will be required to perform the two-step impairment test only if the Company concludes that, after performing a qualitative assessment, the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than its carrying value. The accounting update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2012 and such adoption did not have a material effect on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. The guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, which was the Company’s presentation. This guidance requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance beginning January 1, 2012, and has selected to present interim other comprehensive income (loss) in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income (loss).

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On January 30, 2012, the Company completed the sale of its home healthcare services segment to BAYADA Home Health Care, Inc. for a total of $9,650, of which $1,006 was held in escrow as of September 30, 2012.

The following table presents the revenues and the components of discontinued operations, net of tax:

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue consists of fees earned primarily from the permanent and temporary placement of healthcare professionals. Revenue is recognized when earned and realizable. The Company has entered into certain contracts with healthcare organizations to provide managed services programs. Under these contract arrangements, the Company uses its temporary healthcare professionals along with those of third party subcontractors to fulfill customer orders. If the Company uses subcontractors, it records revenue net of related subcontractors expense. The resulting net revenue represents the administrative fee the Company charges for its vendor management services. The Company records subcontractor accounts receivable from the customer in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company generally pays the subcontractor after it has received payment from the customer. Payables to subcontractors of $18,599 were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012. Payables to subcontractors of $24,268 were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011.

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and recognizes it as expense over the requisite service period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company granted 392 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of approximately $5.99 per RSU. In addition to the regular RSUs, the Company also granted 465 performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), which contain a market condition, with the ultimate realizable number of PRSUs dependent on relative and absolute total shareholder return over a three-year period, up to a maximum amount to be issued under the award of 175% of the original grant, or 814 PRSUs. The fair values of PRSUs granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were estimated at $8.15 per PRSU using the Monte-Carlo simulation valuation model. The Company recorded $1,020 in stock-based compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 related to equity awards granted during the period.

As of September 30, 2012, there was $221 of pre-tax total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and SARs, which will be adjusted for future changes in forfeitures. The Company expects to recognize such cost over a weighted average remaining period of 0.5 years. As of September 30, 2012, there was $6,696 of pre-tax total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs and PRSUs, which will be adjusted for future changes in forfeitures. The Company expects to recognize such cost over a period of 1.9 years.

5. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Securities that are entitled to participate in dividends with common stock, such as the Company’s Series A Conditional Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”), are considered to be participating securities and the two-class method is used for purposes of calculating basic net income per share. Under the two-class method, a portion of net income is allocated to these participating securities and excluded from the calculation of basic net income per common share. Diluted net income per common share reflects the effects of potentially dilutive stock-based equity instruments and common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock.

Stock-based awards to purchase 1,964 and 2,164 shares of common stock for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share because the effect of these instruments was anti-dilutive.

Stock-based awards to purchase 2,136 and 2,146 shares of common stock for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share because the effect of these instruments was anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In 2010 and 2011, the Company had four reportable segments: nurse and allied healthcare staffing, locum tenens staffing, physician permanent placement services and home healthcare services. In January 2012, the Company divested its home healthcare services segment. As a result, the Company has classified the home healthcare services segment’s results of operations as discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

The Company’s management relies on internal management reporting processes that provide revenue and segment operating income for making financial decisions and allocating resources. Segment operating income represents income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax, plus interest expense (net of interest income), stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, and unallocated corporate overhead. The Company’s management does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset information; accordingly, asset information by segment is not prepared or disclosed.

The following table provides a reconciliation of revenue and segment operating income by reportable segment to consolidated results and was derived from the segment’s internal financial information as used for corporate management purposes:

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The authoritative guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activities and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Financial assets and liabilities

The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company held certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included restricted cash equivalents and investments, including investments associated with the Company’s deferred compensation plan. The Company’s restricted cash equivalents and investments typically consist of U.S. Treasury securities and the fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company’s investments associated with its deferred compensation plan typically consist of publicly traded money market funds and mutual funds for which market prices are readily available.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

Non-financial assets and liabilities

The Company applies fair value techniques on a non-recurring basis associated with valuing potential impairment losses related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets accounted for pursuant to accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets.

The Company evaluates goodwill at the reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually for impairment and whenever circumstances occur indicating that goodwill might be impaired. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units based on a combination of inputs including the market capitalization of the Company as well as Level 3 inputs such as discounted cash flows that are not observable from the market, directly or indirectly. The Company determined the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using the income approach (relief-from-royalty method), based on Level 3 inputs. There were no fair value measurements of non-financial assets and liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 are summarized below:

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $7,192 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from continuing operations as compared to a tax expense of $6,231 for the same period in 2011. The Company currently estimates its annual effective income tax rate from continuing operations to be approximately 43.1% (expense) for 2012, as compared to the 64.0% effective income tax rate in 2011. The difference in effective tax rates for 2011 and the forecasted rate for 2012 is primarily due to the relationship of pre-tax income to permanent differences.

The estimated annual effective tax rate for 2012 is greater than the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the following:

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of current and historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

9. NOTES PAYABLE AND RELATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

On April 5, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with several lenders to provide for two credit facilities (the “Credit Facilities”), including (A) a $50,000 secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) that includes a $20,000 sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swingline loans and (B) a $200,000 face value secured term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan”), net of unamortized original issue discount of $2,000. In addition, the New Credit Agreement provides that the Company may from time to time obtain an increase in the Revolver or the Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75,000 (with a $37,500 sublimit for the Revolver) subject to, among other conditions, the arrangement of additional commitments with financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Company and the administrative agent.

The Revolver carries an unused fee of 0.5% per annum. There are no mandatory reductions in the Revolver. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at floating rates based upon either a LIBOR or a base rate option selected by the Company, plus a spread of 3.75% to 4.25% and 2.75% to 3.25%, respectively, in each case, as specifically determined quarterly based upon the Company’s then-existing consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). The Term Loan is subject to amortization of principal of 1.00% per year of the original Term Loan amount, payable in equal quarterly installments. Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest at floating rates based upon either a LIBOR (with a floor of 1.25%) or a base rate option selected by the Company, plus a spread of 4.50% to 4.75% and 3.50% to 3.75%, respectively, in each case, as specifically determined quarterly based upon the Company’s then-existing consolidated leverage ratio. At September 30, 2012, the Company had $169,996 net of discount, outstanding under the Term Loan at a 6.0% interest rate.

The proceeds from the initial drawdown under the Credit Facilities were used to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under two prior credit agreements to which the Company was a party and to pay related transaction costs. The Revolver is available for working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions and general corporate purposes of the Company. The maturity dates of the Revolver and the Term Loan are April 5, 2017 and April 5, 2018, respectively. At September 30, 2012, there was $38,720 of available credit under the Revolver.

In connection with obtaining the Credit Facilities, the Company incurred $3,938 in deferred financing fees, which were capitalized and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company’s loss on debt extinguishment, before tax, included the write-off to interest expense of $8,615 of unamortized deferred financing fees and original issue discount and a $1,200 prepayment penalty associated with the repayment of the prior credit facilities.

During the second and third quarters of 2012, the Company made a quarterly principal amortization payment and voluntary prepayments on the Term Loan totaling $28,380. The $12,000 current portion of the notes payable set forth in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet dated September 30, 2012 represents voluntary prepayments the Company made subsequent to September 30, 2012 through the time of filing of this Quarterly Report with the SEC. The voluntary prepayments the Company has made also satisfied all scheduled quarterly principal amortization payments due under the Credit Facilities through the term of the New Credit Agreement.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: LEGAL

Staff Care, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was the subject of an assessment by the California Employment Development Department (“EDD”) with respect to the payment of certain payroll related taxes, in connection with locum tenens and allied providers, for the period between April 1, 2001 and June 30, 2007. Staff Care appealed the EDD’s assessment, but on September 5, 2008 the Company made a payment to the EDD in the amount of $2,295 to cease the accrual of interest while the appeal was pending. On March 28, 2012, Staff Care, Inc. and the EDD entered into a settlement agreement, which resolved all assessments and claims regarding the subject matter of the appeal from April 1, 2001 through June 30, 2007. In connection with the settlement, the EDD refunded to Staff Care $2,012 of the $2,295 payment made by the Company on September 5, 2008. As a result, the Company recorded a $2,012 benefit offsetting selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

11. PREFERRED STOCK

On September 1, 2010, in connection with the NF Investors, Inc. (“NFI”) acquisition, the Company issued 5,660 shares of Preferred Stock, including shares deposited in escrow to satisfy any indemnification claims by AMN with respect to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants by NFI. On December 20, 2010, 52 shares of Preferred Stock were released from escrow to the Company, and 221 shares of Preferred Stock were released from escrow to the former NFI stockholders, under the terms of the acquisition of NFI. During the fourth quarter of 2011, 7 shares of Preferred Stock were released from escrow to the Company and during the third quarter of 2012, 990 shares of Preferred Stock were released from escrow to the former NFI stockholders, in each case under the terms of the acquisition of NFI. At September 30, 2012, 457 shares of Preferred Stock remained in escrow for potential indemnification claims. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, 4,473 and 4,758 shares of Preferred Stock were outstanding, respectively.

The Preferred Stock is entitled to receive dividends consistent with dividends payable on the Company’s common stock. In addition, each share of the Preferred Stock (i) is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock (subject to customary adjustments for accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, and changes in the Company’s capital structure) at the option of the holder and (ii) will automatically convert into one share of common stock (subject to customary adjustments for accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, and changes in the Company’s capital structure) upon the earlier of (A) the closing price of the Company’s common stock being equal to or greater than $10.00 per share (as adjusted from time to time to fully reflect changes in the Company’s capital structure) for a period of 30 consecutive trading days after December 15, 2010 and (B) September 1, 2020. From October 1, 2012 through October 31, 2012, approximately 3,258 shares of Preferred Stock were converted into the Company’s common stock. As of November 1, 2012, 1,215 shares of Preferred Stock were outstanding.
