ON ASSIGNMENT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Financial Statement Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The information reflects all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of On Assignment, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) and its results of operations for the interim dates and periods set forth herein. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other period. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

2. Acquisitions. On May 15, 2012, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Apex Systems, Inc., a privately-owned provider of information technology staffing services headquartered in Richmond, Virginia (Apex). The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's information technology staffing services. The purchase price totaled approximately $610.8 million, comprised of $385.3 million paid in cash and issuance of 14.3 million shares of common stock of the Company. Acquisition costs were approximately $9.8 million and were expensed in 2012. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The results of operations of Apex have been combined with those of the Company since the acquisition date.

Assets and liabilities of the acquired companies were recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets was determined primarily by using a discounted cash flow method. The Company's allocation of the purchase price for Apex has been finalized, except for the pre-acquisition contingencies and income taxes related to the acquisition. Any material measurement period adjustments will be recorded retrospectively to the acquisition date.

The following tables summarize (in thousands) the purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Apex, which is subject to adjustment for pre-acquisition contingencies and income taxes related to the acquisition during the measurement period:



	Apex
Current assets	$	169,844
Property and equipment	902
Goodwill	266,788
Identifiable intangible assets	251,555
Other	494
Total assets acquired	$	689,583

Current liabilities	$	77,905
Other	850
Total liabilities assumed	78,755
Total purchase price	$	610,828

The following table summarizes (in thousands) the allocation of the purchase price among the identifiable intangible assets for the acquisition of Apex:



		Identifiable Intangible Asset Value
	Useful life	Apex
Contractor relationships	5 years	$	10,589
Customer relationships	10 years	92,147
Non-compete agreements	7 years	2,076

The summary below (in thousands, except for per share data) presents unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as if the acquisition of Apex occurred on January 1, 2011. The pro forma financial information gives effect to certain adjustments, including: the amortization of intangible assets and interest expense on acquisition-related debt, and increased number of common shares as a result of the acquisition. Acquisition-related costs are assumed to have occurred at the beginning of the year prior to acquisition. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of the date indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results.

3. Discontinued Operations. On February 12, 2013, the Company completed the sale of the Nurse Travel division for $31.0 million in cash and recognized a gain of $14.4 million, net of tax. Under terms of the purchase agreement, the Company is required to deliver net working capital of $5.7 million. The Nurse Travel division, previously included in the Healthcare segment, has been presented as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for all periods presented. The following is a summary of the Nurse Travel division's operating results, (in thousands):

Provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	(104	)	$	241
Net income (loss)	$	(409	)	$	336

4. Long-Term Debt. Long-term debt as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, consisted of the following (in thousands):



	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Senior Secured Debt --
$75 million revolving credit facility, due May 2017	$	—	$	—
$100 million term A loan facility, due May 2017	90,000		92,500
$365 million term B loan facility, due May 2019	293,588		334,088
	$	383,588	$	426,588

At March 31, 2013, borrowings on the term A loan bore interest at 3.2 percent, and borrowings on the term B loan bore interest at 5.0 percent. The weighted average interest rate at March 31, 2013 was 4.6 percent. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $72.0 million of borrowing available under our credit facility.

5. Derivative Instruments. The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor does it use leveraged financial instruments. The Company reports its derivative instruments separately as assets and liabilities unless a legal right of set-off exists under a master netting agreement enforceable by law. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at their fair value, and are included in other long-term assets, other long-term liabilities and other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company's Interest Rate Caps and the Interest Rate Swap were designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes and are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of unrealized losses on cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income until the periodic interest settlements occur, at which time they will be recorded as interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company expects to reclassify losses of $0.3 million (pretax) from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operation within the next twelve months.

As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to risk that the counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, the Company only enters into contracts with carefully selected major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors, and continually assesses the creditworthiness of counterparties. As of March 31, 2013, the counterparty to the interest rate contracts had investment grade ratings and has performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

The fair values of derivative instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows (in thousands):



Derivative designated as hedging instrument under ASC 815
Derivative designated as hedging instrument under ASC 815	Balance Sheet Classification	March 31, 2013			December 31, 2012

Interest rate contracts	Other liabilities	(327		)	(362		)
Interest rate contracts	Other long-term liabilities	—			(55		)

6. Fair Value Measurements. The valuation techniques utilized are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

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

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value based on their short-term nature. Long-term debt recorded in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2013 was $383.6 million. The fair value of the long-term debt was determined using the quoted price technique, based on Level 2 inputs including the yields of comparable companies with similar credit characteristics, was $406.1 million.

The interest rate swap and interest rate caps are measured using the income approach. The fair value reflects the estimated amounts that the Company would pay or receive based on the present value of the expected cash flows derived from market rates and prices. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2.

The Company has obligations, to be paid in cash, to the former owners of Valesta and HCP, if certain future financial goals are met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using an expected present value technique. Expected cash flows are determined using the probability - weighted average of possible outcomes that would occur should certain financial metrics be reached. There is no market data available to use in valuing the contingent consideration, therefore, the Company developed its own assumptions related to the future financial performance of the businesses to evaluate the fair value of these liabilities. As such, the contingent consideration is classified within Level 3.

In connection with estimating the fair value of the contingent consideration, the Company develops various scenarios (base case, downside case, and upside case) and weights each according to the probability of occurrence. The probabilities range from 5 percent to 80 percent, with the most significant weighting given to the base case between 75 percent and 80 percent. These scenarios are developed based on the expected financial performance of the acquired companies, with revenue growth rates being a primary input to the calculation. These revenue growth rates range from (7.0) percent to 7.9 percent. An increase or decrease in the probability of achievement of any of these scenarios could result in a significant increase or decrease to the estimated fair value.

The fair value is reviewed on a quarterly basis based on most recent financial performance of the most recent fiscal quarter. An analysis is performed at the end of each fiscal quarter to compare actual results to forecasted financial performance. If performance has deviated from projected levels, the valuation is updated for the latest information available.

The significant assumptions that may materially affect the fair value are developed in conjunction with the guidance of the division presidents, division vice presidents, and chief financial officer to ensure that the most accurate and latest financial projections are used and compared with the most recent financial results in the fair value measurement.

The liabilities for the contingent consideration were established at the time of the acquisition and are evaluated at each reporting period. The current liability is included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the current portion of accrued earn-outs and the non-current portion is included in other long-term liabilities. Fair value adjustments are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (in thousands):



	As of March 31, 2013

Certain assets and liabilities, such as goodwill, are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (e.g., when there is evidence of impairment). For the three months ended March 31, 2013, no fair value adjustments were required for non-financial assets or liabilities.

Goodwill and other intangible assets having an indefinite useful life are not amortized for financial statement purposes. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. There were no triggering events that required an interim impairment analysis during the current period.

8. Incentive Award Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan. On March 4, 2013, the CEO was awarded 143,182 restricted stock units (RSUs) with a grant date fair market value of $3.2 million, which will vest in three equal annual increments on January 4, 2014, January 4, 2015 and January 4, 2016, contingent upon the Company achieving certain performance objectives based on Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of identifiable intangible assets, plus equity-based compensation expense, impairment charges and acquisition related costs) during 2013. On March 4, 2013, the CEO was awarded a performance based award which had a grant date fair market value of $1.0 million. The number of shares will be determined by dividing $0.5 million by the closing price of the Company’s stock on each of February 1, 2014 and February 1, 2015, contingent upon the Company meeting certain financial performance objectives during 2013. The Company classifies this awards as a liability award until the number of shares is determined. The grant-date fair market value of the RSUs described in this paragraph is expensed over the vesting term, based on an estimate of the percentage achievement of the applicable performance targets. All awards are subject to the CEO’s continued employment through applicable vesting dates. All awards may vest on an accelerated basis in part or in full upon the occurrence of certain events.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company granted RSUs to certain other executive officers with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $2.0 million. Of the $2.0 million, $1.0 million will vest in three equal annual increments subject to continued employment on each succeeding grant-date anniversary. The remaining $1.0 million vests on January 2, 2014, subject to continued employment and the Company attaining certain performance objectives during 2013, as approved by the Compensation Committee. Compensation expense for the performance-based component of these awards is recognized over the vesting period, based on an estimate of the percentage achievement of the targets for these awards.

On March 31, 2013 the Company issued 104,328 shares of common stock under the On Assignment 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP).

Compensation expense related to stock-based compensation, including the ESPP, was $2.7 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Stock-based compensation is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in selling, general and administrative expenses.

9. Commitments and Contingencies. The Company is partially self-insured for its workers’ compensation and medical malpractice liabilities. The Company accounts for claims incurred, but not reported based on estimates derived from historical claims experience and current trends of industry data. Changes or differences in estimates and actual payments for claims are recognized in the period that the estimates changed or the payments were made. The self-insurance claim liability was approximately $10.5 million and $10.3 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The Company also has outstanding letters of credit securing obligations for workers’ compensation claims with various insurance carriers of $3.0 million as of March 31, 2013 and $2.8 million as of December 31, 2012.

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on the facts currently available, the Company does not believe that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is subject to earn-out obligations entered into in connection with certain of its acquisitions. If the acquired businesses meet predetermined targets, the Company is obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of such earn-out obligations. As of March 31, 2013, the Company has potential future earn-out obligations of approximately $8.9 million through 2013.

The Company has entered into various non-cancelable operating leases, primarily related to its facilities and certain office equipment used in the ordinary course of business. As a result of the Apex acquisition, the Company leases two properties owned by related parties.

10. Earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common share equivalents (consisting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards and units and employee stock purchase plan shares) outstanding during the periods using the treasury stock method.

The following is a reconciliation of the shares used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2013	2012
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to compute basic earnings per share	53,046	37,269
Dilutive effect of stock-based awards	990	885
Number of shares used to compute diluted earnings per share	54,036	38,154

The following table presents the weighted average share equivalents outstanding during each period that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price for these options was greater than the average market price of the Company’s shares of common stock during the respective periods that became anti-dilutive when applying the treasury stock method (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2013	2012
Anti-dilutive common share equivalents outstanding	77	710

11. Income Taxes. For interim reporting periods, the Company prepares an estimate of the full-year income and the related income tax expense for each jurisdiction in which the Company operates. Changes in the geographical mix, permanent differences or estimated level of annual pretax income can impact the Company’s actual effective rate.

12. Segment Reporting. The Company has five reportable segments: Apex, Oxford, Life Sciences, Healthcare, and Physician. The Company’s management evaluates the performance of each segment primarily based on revenues, gross profit and operating income. The information in the following table is derived directly from the segments’ internal financial reporting used for corporate management purposes.

OVERVIEW

On Assignment, Inc. is a leading global provider of in-demand, skilled professionals in the growing technology, healthcare, and life sciences sectors. We provide clients with short-term and long-term placement of contract, contract-to-hire, and direct hire professionals.

Our Technology service offering consists of two complementary segments uniquely positioned in the marketplace to offer our clients a broad spectrum of information technology, or IT, staffing solutions: Apex and Oxford. Our Apex segment provides mission-critical daily IT operation professionals for contract and contract-to-hire positions to Fortune 1000 and mid-market clients across the United States, and offers recruitment solutions for other select professional skills and workforce needs. Our Oxford segment proactively recruits and delivers high-end information technology, engineering, regulatory, and compliance professionals for consulting assignments and permanent placements across the United States, Canada, and Europe.

Our Healthcare service offering consists of two segments: Physician and Healthcare. Our Physician segment is a leading provider of physician staffing, known as locum tenens, and permanent physician search services. Our Physician segment provides short- and long-term locum tenens services and full-service physician search and consulting services, primarily in the United States, with some locum tenens placements in Australia and New Zealand. We work with physicians in a wide range of specialties, placing them in hospitals, community-based practices and federal, state and local facilities. Our Healthcare segment offers our healthcare clients locally-based and traveling contract professionals, from a number of healthcare, medical, financial and allied occupations. Our Healthcare segment contract professionals include local nurses, health information management professionals, dialysis technicians, surgical technicians, imaging technicians, x-ray technicians, medical technologists, medical assistants, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, respiratory therapists, phlebotomists, coders, billers, claims processors and collections staff, and dental professionals (including dental assistants, hygienists and dentists and rehabilitation therapists).

Our Life Sciences service offering segment provides locally-based contract life science professionals to clients in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, medical device, personal care, chemical, automotive, educational and environmental industries. Our contract professionals include chemists, clinical research associates, clinical lab assistants, engineers, biologists, biochemists, microbiologists, molecular biologists, food scientists, regulatory affairs specialists, lab assistants, biostatisticians, drug safety specialists, SAS programmers, medical writers, and other skilled scientific professionals.

Seasonality

Demand for our staffing services historically has been lower during the first and fourth quarters due to fewer business days resulting from client shutdowns, adverse weather conditions and a decline in the number of contract professionals willing to work during the holidays. Demand for our staffing services usually increases in the second and third quarters of the year. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.

CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2013 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012

Revenues by segment (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended				Change
	March 31,				Change
	2013		2012		$			%
Apex	$	212,728	$	—	$	212,728		—		%
Oxford	95,262		78,759		16,503			21.0		%

	$	389,193	$	156,760	$	232,433		148.3		%

Revenues increased $232.4 million, or 148.3 percent, mainly due to the acquisition of Apex and 12.6 percent year-over-year growth of our other business segments. Apex revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013 were $212.7 million or 54.7 percent of total revenues. Apex was acquired on May 15, 2012 and is reported in the Apex segment. Oxford revenues increased $16.5 million, or 21.0 percent, comprised of a 16.8 percent increase in the average number of contract professionals on assignment and a 4.1 percent increase in the average bill rate. Life Sciences segment revenues decreased $0.9 million, or 2.1 percent, primarily due to the European economic challenges and the voluntary termination of a low margin client at the end of the first quarter of 2012. This decline was also due to a 1.7 percent decrease in the average number of contract professionals on assignment. Physician segment revenues increased $2.2 million, or 9.2 percent, comprised of a 8.3 percent increase in the average number of physicians placed and working and a 5.9 percent increase in the average bill rate. Healthcare revenues were $14.4 million in the quarter, up $1.9 million, or 14.9 percent year over year. The increase was due to a 9.4 percent increase in the average number of contract professionals on assignment and a 3.5 percent increase in the average bill rate. The increase in revenues was attributable to improved economic trends in the healthcare sector, which resulted in a higher number of contract professionals on assignment, open orders and average bill rates.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin by segment (dollars in thousands):



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2013				2012
	Gross Profit		Gross Margin		Gross Profit		Gross Margin
Apex	$	55,619	26.1	%	$	—	—	%
Oxford	32,150		33.7	%	27,370		34.8	%
Life Sciences	13,384		33.1	%	13,839		33.5	%
Physician	7,483		28.5	%	7,499		31.1	%
Healthcare	4,638		32.1	%	4,041		32.2	%
	$	113,274	29.1	%	$	52,749	33.6	%

The year-over-year gross profit increase was primarily due to the inclusion of Apex and higher revenues, which was partially offset by a 450 basis point contraction in consolidated gross margin. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to the inclusion of Apex, which has a lower gross margin and lower mix of direct hire and conversion fee revenues.

Apex segment accounted for 49.1 percent of gross profit and the gross margin was 26.1 percent. Oxford segment gross profit increased $4.8 million, or 17.5 percent, as a result of the 21.0 percent increase in revenues, which was partially offset by a contraction in gross margin. The contraction in gross margin mainly related to a change in the overall business mix for the segment. Oxford experienced a higher growth in lower margin services and a higher mix of reimbursable expenses (which are billed to customers with no mark-up), partially offset by a 0.7 percent increase in bill/pay spread and a higher mix of direct hire and conversion fee revenues compared with the same period in 2012. Life Sciences segment gross profit decreased $0.5 million, or 3.3 percent. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a 2.1 percent decrease in revenues and a 40 basis point contraction in gross margin. The contraction in gross margin was due to business mix and cost increases on contractor related benefits. Physician segment gross profit was flat despite a 9.2 percent growth in revenues. Gross margin contracted by 260 basis points as a result of a higher mix of lower margin specialties, higher non-payroll expenses, such as travel and lodging, on accounts that have an all-inclusive bill rates. Healthcare segment gross profit increased $0.6 million, or 14.8 percent as a result of the increase in revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, SG&A expenses were $84.2 million (21.6 percent of revenues) up from $42.7 million (27.3 percent of revenues) for the same period in 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses was primarily due to $38.3 million in SG&A expenses from Apex, which was acquired on May 15, 2012.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $5.4 million compared with $0.6 million in the same period in 2012. The $4.8 million increase was due to amortization related to $104.8 million of identifiable intangible assets acquired related to the Apex acquisition in May 2012.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

Interest expense was $5.3 million compared with $0.7 million in the same period in 2012. This increase was due to higher debt outstanding for the new senior secured credit agreement closed in May 2012 to fund the cash portion of the acquisition of Apex.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $7.8 million compared with $3.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The annual effective tax rate was 42.3 percent and 41.8 percent for the same period in 2012. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2013 primarily relates to the addition of Apex, which has a higher mix of non-deductible expenses and not recognizing a tax benefit on operating losses from certain of our foreign subsidiaries.

Discontinued operations

The Nurse Travel division was sold in February 2013 for $31.0 million in cash. The gain on sale of the Nurse Travel division reflects the transfer of net assets and the selling expenses. Income (loss) from discontinued operations was $(0.4) million compared with $0.3 million in 2012. SG&A expenses in 2013 were higher compared with 2012, due to expenses related to the disposition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital as of March 31, 2013 was $166.5 million and our cash and cash equivalents were $11.8 million, of which $7.7 million was held in foreign countries. Cash held in foreign countries is not available to fund domestic operations unless repatriated, which would require the accrual and payment of taxes. We do not intend to repatriate cash held in foreign countries. Our operating cash flows have been our primary source of liquidity and historically have been sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure needs. Our working capital requirements consist primarily of the financing of accounts receivable, payroll expenses and the periodic payments of principal and interest on our loans.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared with $7.0 million provided by operating activities in the same period in 2012. This decrease is primarily due the increase in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by the increase in net operating income. The primary driver of the changes in operating assets and liabilities was the increase in accounts receivable.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $24.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared with $2.1 million used in investing activities in the same period in 2012. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we sold our Nurse Travel division for $31.0 million. Capital expenditures for information technology projects, leasehold improvements and various property and equipment purchases were $2.8 million. We estimate that capital expenditures for the full year 2013 will be approximately $16.0 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $43.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared with $5.2 million for the same period in 2012. In 2013, the net cash used in financing activities related to $43.0 million in payments on long-term debt.

Under terms of the credit facility, the term loan facility is repayable at the minimum rate of $2.5 million per quarter and we are required to reduce the term loan by up to 50 percent of our excess cash flow based on leverage ratios, as defined by the agreement for each year end over the next seven years. We are required to maintain certain financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio. Our leverage ratio (consolidated funded debt to trailing 12 months EBITDA) is currently limited to no more than 4.25 to 1.00 and reduces over time to 3.00 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2013, the leverage ratio was approximately 2.49 to 1.00 and we were in compliance with all such covenants. Additionally, the agreement, which is secured by substantially all of our assets, provides for certain limitations on our ability to, among other things, incur additional debt, offer loans, and declare dividends. As of March 31, 2013, we had $72.0 million of borrowing available under our credit facility.

We are in the process of replacing our current credit facility with a new $500 million facility. This new facility will provide us with greater financial flexibility at a lower effective borrowing rate. We expect this new facility to be in place by mid-May.

We believe that our working capital as of March 31, 2013, our credit facility and expected operating cash flows will be sufficient to fund future requirements of our debt obligations, accounts payable and related payroll expenses as well as capital expenditure initiatives for the next twelve months.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

None.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 compared with those disclosed in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC on March 18, 2013.

Commitments

In connection with certain acquisitions, we are subject to earn-out obligations. If the acquired businesses meet predetermined targets, we are obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of such earn-out obligations. As of March 31, 2013, the Company has potential future earn-out obligations of approximately $8.9 million through 2013.

Other than those described above, we have not entered into any significant commitments or contractual obligations that have not been previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC on March 18, 2013.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of business, principally risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates. We are exposed to foreign currency risk from the translation of foreign operations into U.S. dollars. Based on the relative size and nature of our foreign operations, we do not believe that a ten percent change in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar would have a material impact on our financial statements. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt instruments. See Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further description of our debt instruments. Excluding the effect of our interest rate swap agreement and interest rate caps, a hypothetical 1.0 percent change in interest rates on variable rate debt would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating approximately $3.8 million based on $383.6 million of debt outstanding for any twelve month period. Including the effect of our interest rate swap agreement and interest rate cap agreements, a 1.0 percent change in interest rates on variable debt would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating approximately $3.6 million based on $358.6 million of debt outstanding for any twelve month period. We have not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to

be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
