NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Answerthink, Inc. (Answerthink or the Company) include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended January 2, 2004 included in the Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated results of operations for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the full fiscal year.
2. Revenue Recognition
The Company principally derives revenues from fees for services generated on a project-by-project basis. Revenues for services rendered are recognized on a time and materials basis or on a fixed-fee or capped-fee basis. Revenues for time and materials contracts are recognized based on the number of hours worked by the Companys consultants at an agreed upon rate per hour and are recognized in the period in which services are performed. Revenues related to fixed-fee or capped-fee contracts are recognized on the proportional performance method of accounting based on the ratio of labor hours incurred to estimated total labor hours. This percentage is multiplied by the contracted dollar amount of the project to determine the amount of revenue to recognize in an accounting period. The contracted dollar amount used in this calculation excludes the amount the client pays for reimbursable expenses. There are situations where the number of hours to complete projects may exceed the Companys original estimate. These increases can be as a result of an increase in project scope, unforeseen events that arise, or the inability of the client or the delivery team to fulfill their responsibilities. On an on-going basis, the Companys project delivery, office of risk management and finance personnel review hours incurred and estimated total labor hours to complete projects and any revisions in these estimates are reflected in the period in which they become known.
Unbilled revenues represent revenues for services performed that have not been invoiced. If the Company does not accurately estimate the scope of the work to be performed, or does not manage the projects properly within the planned periods of time or does not meet the clients expectations under the contracts, then future consulting margins may be negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized. Any such resulting reductions in margins or contract losses could be material to the Companys results of operations. Revenues before reimbursements exclude reimbursable expenses charged to clients. Reimbursements, which include travel and out-of-pocket expenses, are included in revenues, and an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses is included in project personnel and expenses.
The agreements entered into in connection with a project, whether time and materials based or fixed-fee or capped-fee based, typically allow the Companys clients to terminate early due to breach or for convenience with 30 days notice. In the event of termination, the client is contractually required to pay for all time, materials and expenses incurred by the Company through the effective date of the termination. In addition, from time to time the Company enters into agreements with clients that limit the Companys right to enter into business relationships with specific competitors of that client for a specific time period. These provisions typically prohibit the Company from performing a defined range of services that it might otherwise be willing to perform for potential clients. These provisions are generally limited to six to twelve months and usually apply only to specific employees or the specific project team.

3. Pro Forma Impact of Employee Stock Option Plans
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations, in accounting for its stock option plans related to the grant of stock options and stock-based awards to employees (including independent directors). In accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, compensation expense, if any, is generally based on the difference between the exercise price of an option, or the amount paid for an award, and the market price or fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of the award or at the measurement date for variable awards. Stock-based compensation arrangements involving non-employees are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, under which such arrangements are accounted for based on the fair value of the option or award.
Under SFAS No. 123, compensation cost for the Companys stock-based compensation plans would be determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans. Had the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 in accounting for its stock option plans, the Companys consolidated net loss and net loss per share for the quarters and six months ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003 would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

4. Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. With regard to restricted stock or restricted stock units issued to employees, the calculation includes only the vested portion of such stock.
Net income (loss) per common share assuming dilution is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the assumed conversion of other potentially dilutive securities during the period.
Potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003 because their effects would have been anti-dilutive to the loss incurred by the Company. Therefore, the amounts reported for basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003. Potentially dilutive securities which were not included in the diluted loss per share calculation for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 include 3,654,200 and 3,633,805 shares, respectively, of unvested restricted stock issued to employees and 866,497 and 933,049 shares, respectively, of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants following the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities which were not included in the diluted loss per share calculation for the quarter and six months ended July 4, 2003 include 76,086 and 128,547 shares, respectively, of unvested restricted stock issued to employees and 60,891 and 99,360 shares, respectively, of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants following the treasury stock method.

6. Acquisition
In May 2004, the Company purchased the US and India operations of EZCommerce Global Solutions, Inc., a business specializing in the dual-shore implementation of primarily SAP and, to a lesser extent, Oracle software. The purchase price for this acquisition was $9.0 million in cash, which includes $3.0 million of deferred payments payable in equal installments on the first and second anniversary of the purchase. In addition, approximately $3.0 million of contingent consideration will be payable over the next two years if certain earnings goals are achieved.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquisition are included in the Companys consolidated results of operations from the date of the acquisition. The excess of the purchase price of the acquisition over the estimated fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired has been recorded as $1.4 million of intangible assets and $6.5 million of goodwill. The intangible assets are being amortized over periods ranging from 8 months to 4 years. The pro forma impact of this acquisition was not significant to the results of the Companys consolidated operations for the six months ended July 2, 2004.

8. Restructuring Accrual
The Company recorded restructuring costs of $10.9 million and $5.6 million in fiscal years 2002 and 2001, respectively, for reductions in consultants and functional support personnel and for closure and consolidation of facilities and related exit costs. These actions were taken as a result of the continued decline in demand for technology services to better align the Companys overall cost structure and organization with anticipated demand for services. In the second quarters of 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded restructuring costs of $3.7 million and $4.9 million, respectively, to increase existing restructuring accruals to account for higher estimated losses on the sublease of facilities as a result of lower than expected sublease rates and longer than expected time estimates to sublease excess facilities. Also in the second quarter of 2004, the restructuring accrual was reduced by $370 thousand relating to the final settlement of a lease obligation which was recorded as income from discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the quarter and six months ended July, 2004.
The following table sets forth the detail and activity in the restructuring expense accrual during the six months ended July 2, 2004 (in thousands):

9. Income Taxes
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $53 thousand for the six months ended July 2, 2004. This amount reflects an estimated annual 8% tax rate for 2004 for certain state and foreign taxes. The estimated annual effective tax rate includes an income tax benefit attributable to a decrease in the valuation allowance as a result of the expected utilization of tax net operating loss carryforwards in 2004. The liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes requires that a change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets be included in income tax expense or benefit for the current year.
The Company recorded $150 thousand of income tax expense for state and foreign taxes for the first six months of 2003. The Company did not recognize an income tax benefit for federal taxes for the first six months of 2003 due to the establishment of a valuation allowance for the tax benefit generated on losses in the first six months.

9. Income Taxes (continued)
In 2002, the Company discontinued its interactive marketing business which was acquired with THINK New Ideas. The Company claimed a worthless stock deduction for its investment in THINK New Ideas in its 2002 tax return as a result of the discontinuance of THINK New Ideas. The Company voluntarily requested that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) review this position on an expedited basis. On August 5, 2004, the Company reached an agreement with the IRS representing the final step in the review process. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company and the IRS agreed that the Company was entitled to a worthless stock deduction of $77.3 million on the Companys 2002 tax return. Including this deduction, the Company has approximately $77 million of net operating loss carryforwards as of January 2, 2004.
10. Shareholders Equity
Stock Plans
During the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004, the Company incurred $592 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively, of stock compensation expense in connection with its outstanding restricted stock units. The Company expects to incur approximately the same amount of stock compensation expense per quarter over the remaining vesting period of the restricted stock units which fully vest in the third quarter of 2007. As of July 2, 2004, the Company had 200,499 stock options which are accounted for under variable plan accounting pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans. The weighted average exercise price of these remaining eligible options is $3.91. Variable plan accounting resulted in a reduction of stock compensation expense of approximately $100 thousand for the quarter ended July 2, 2004 and $115 thousand of stock compensation expense for the six months ended July 2, 2004.
Treasury Stock
In July 2002, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $5.0 million of Answerthinks common stock. During the second quarters of 2004 and 2003, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional $5.0 million of Answerthinks common stock for each of these two quarters. Under the repurchase plans, Answerthink may buy back shares of its outstanding stock from time to time either on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. During the quarter ended July 2, 2004, the Company repurchased 819,600 shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $5.3 million. As of July 2, 2004, the Company had repurchased 4,369,879 shares of its common stock at an average price of $2.98 per share. In June 2003, the Company repurchased 465,120 shares from the Companys President, who is also a director, at $2.15 per share. The Company holds repurchased shares of its common stock as treasury stock and accounts for treasury stock under the cost method. During the third quarter of 2004, the Board of Directors approved an additional $5 million for the repurchase of our common stock thereby increasing the total program size to $20 million.
11. Litigation
The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business not specifically discussed herein. In the opinion of management, the final disposition of such other matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Revenue Recognition
Our revenues are principally derived from fees for services generated on a project-by-project basis. Revenues for services rendered are recognized on a time and materials basis or on a fixed-fee or capped-fee basis. Revenues for time and materials contracts are recognized based on the number of hours worked by our consultants at an agreed upon rate per hour and are recognized in the period in which services are performed. Revenues related to fixed-fee or capped-fee contracts are recognized on the proportional performance method of accounting based on the ratio of labor hours incurred to estimated total labor hours. This percentage is multiplied by the contracted dollar amount of the project to determine the amount of revenue to recognize in an accounting period. The contracted dollar amount used in this calculation excludes the amount the client pays us for reimbursable expenses. There are situations where the number of hours to complete projects may exceed our original estimate. These increases can be as a result of an increase in project scope, unforeseen events that arise, or the inability of the client or the delivery team to fulfill their responsibilities. On an on-going basis, our project delivery, office of risk management and finance personnel review hours incurred and estimated total labor hours to complete projects and any revisions in these estimates are reflected in the period in which they become known.

Unbilled revenues represent revenues for services performed that have not been invoiced. If we do not accurately estimate the scope of the work to be performed, or we do not manage our projects properly within the planned periods of time or we do not meet our clients expectations under the contracts, then future consulting margins may be negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized. Any such resulting reductions in margins or contract losses could be material to our results of operations. Revenues before reimbursements exclude reimbursable expenses charged to clients. Reimbursements, which include travel and out-of-pocket expenses, are included in revenues, and an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses is included in project personnel and expenses.
The agreements entered into in connection with a project, whether time and materials based or fixed-fee or capped-fee based, typically allow our clients to terminate early due to breach or for convenience with 30 days notice. In the event of termination, the client is contractually required to pay for all time, materials and expenses incurred by us through the effective date of the termination. In addition, from time to time we enter into agreements with our clients that limit our right to enter into business relationships with specific competitors of that client for a specific time period. These provisions typically prohibit us from performing a defined range of our services that we might otherwise be willing to perform for potential clients. These provisions are generally limited to six to twelve months and usually apply only to specific employees or the specific project team.
Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our clients to make required payments. Periodically, we review accounts receivable to assess our estimates of collectibility. Management critically reviews accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, past-due accounts, client credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Goodwill
We assess goodwill for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, or, at a minimum, on an annual basis. We have made determinations as to what our reporting units are and what amounts of goodwill and intangible assets should be allocated to those reporting units.
In assessing the recoverability of long-lived identifiable assets and goodwill, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, discount rates and other factors to determine if impairment tests are met. These estimates contain managements best estimates, using appropriate and customary assumptions and projections at the time. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record additional impairment charges.
Restructuring Reserves
Restructuring reserves reflect judgements and estimates of our ultimate costs of severance, closure and consolidation of facilities and settlement of contractual obligations under our operating leases, including sublease rental rates, absorption period to sublease space and other related costs. We reassess the reserve requirements to complete each individual plan under our restructuring programs at the end of each reporting period. If these estimates change in the future or actual results are different than our estimates, we may be required to record additional charges in the future.
Income Taxes
We record income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, we record deferred taxes based on temporary taxable and deductible differences between the tax bases of our assets and liabilities and our financial reporting bases. The liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes requires a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
12
Table of Contents
Contingent Liabilities
We have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities. We accrue contingent liabilities when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Reserves for contingent liabilities are reflected in our consolidated financial statements based on managements assessment, along with legal counsel, of the expected outcome of the contingencies. If the final outcome of our contingencies differs adversely from that currently expected, it would result in a charge to earnings when determined.
The foregoing list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for us to judge the application. There are also areas in which our judgement in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. Please see our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contain accounting policies and other disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Revenues. Revenues for the quarter ended July 2, 2004 increased by $6.1 million or 20% to $37.6 million from $31.5 million in the quarter ended July 4, 2003. Revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2004 increased by $4.4 million or 7% to $72.7 million from $68.3 million in the six months ended July 4, 2003. The increase in revenues for the quarter and the six months ended July 2, 2004 was primarily attributable to increased revenue from benchmarking sales

and related follow-on consulting projects, and the acquisitions of EZCommerce, a dual-shore ERP implementation company, and Beacon Analytics, Inc., a business performance management consulting company, focusing on the implementation of Hyperion software. These impacts were partially offset by a decline in Peoplesoft implementation revenues of $1.6 million and $7.9 million for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004, respectively, due to the wind down of significant projects at two of our larger customers. Reimbursements as a percentage of revenues during the quarters and six months ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003 were 10% and 11%, respectively. During the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004, one customer had revenues greater than 5%, accounting for 9% and 10% of revenues, respectively. During the quarter ended July 4, 2003, three customers had revenues greater than 5%, which, in the aggregate accounted for 24% of revenues. For the six months ended July 4, 2003 three customers had revenues greater than 5%, which in the aggregate accounted for 26% of revenues. With respect to our largest customer in 2004, our contracts can be cancelled for convenience within 30 days notice. Our projects with this customer expire on various dates ranging from July 2004 to January 2005. We do not anticipate any credit and/or collection issues with this customer. As is customary with most of our significant relationships, we may be able to continue with new and follow-on projects as these initiatives progress into subsequent phases. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to renew these contracts. The cancellation or significant reduction in the use of services from our key customer could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Project Personnel and Expenses. Project personnel costs and expenses primarily consist of salaries, benefits and incentive compensation for consultants and reimbursable expenses associated with projects. Project personnel costs and expenses were $23.2 million in the quarter ended July 2, 2004, an increase of $1.7 million or 8% compared to the quarter ended July 4, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the number of consultants in order to balance workforce capacity with market demand for services partially offset by a lower average cost per consultant. Consultant headcount was 597 as of July 2, 2004 compared to 469 as of July 4, 2003. Project personnel costs and expenses were $44.7 million in the six months ended July 2, 2004, a decrease of $2.3 million or 5% compared to the six months ended July 4, 2003. This decrease was primarily attributable to a lower average cost per consultant. The average number of consultants in the six months ended July 2, 2004 was comparable to the average in the six months ended July 4, 2003 as headcount levels declined throughout the six months ended July 4, 2003 due to a decline in demand for services.
Project personnel and expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 62% in the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 from 68% and 69%, respectively, in the comparable periods of 2003. These decreases were primarily the result of higher utilization of consultants which approximated 72% for the quarter ended July 2, 2004 compared to 65% for the comparable quarter of 2003, and approximated 74% for the six months ended July 2, 2004 compared to 67% for the comparable period in 2003.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 9% to $12.0 million in the quarter ended July 2, 2004 from $11.0 million in the quarter ended July 4, 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 2% to $24.0 million in the six months ended July 2, 2004 from $23.6 million in the six months ended July 4, 2003. The overall increases in selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily due to an increase in our benchmarking and business advisory services group related to an increased sales force and an increase in recruiting expense, partially offset by lower legal fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 32% and 35%, respectively during the quarters ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003 and 33% and 35%, respectively, for the six months ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003. These decreases were primarily attributable to the impact of fixed expenses on higher levels of revenues in 2004 as compared to 2003.
Restructuring Costs. We recorded restructuring costs of $3.7 million and $4.9 million for the quarter ended July 2, 2004 and July 4, 2003, respectively, to increase previously established reserves recorded for the closure and consolidation of facilities. Existing reserves were increased to account for higher estimated losses on the sublease of facilities as a result of lower than expected sublease rates and longer than expected time estimates to sublease facilities based on current market conditions. Also in the second quarter of 2004, the restructuring accrual was reduced by $370 thousand relating to the final settlement of a lease obligation, which was recorded as income from discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004.
Stock Compensation Expense. Stock compensation expense in 2004 primarily related to our outstanding restricted stock units. We recorded non-cash compensation charges of $592 thousand and $1.2 million in the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2004 based on the vesting provisions of the restricted stock units and the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. We expect to incur approximately the same amount of stock compensation expense per quarter over the remaining vesting period of the restricted stock units which fully vest in the third quarter of 2007. In
14

addition, as of July 2, 2004 we had 200,499 stock options accounted under variable plan accounting pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 28. Variable plan accounting resulted in a reduction of stock compensation expense of approximately $100 thousand for the quarter ended July 2, 2004 and $115 thousand of stock compensation expense for the six months ended July 2, 2004.
Income Taxes. We recorded an income tax benefit of $53 thousand for the first six months of 2004, which represented an estimated annual 8.0% tax rate for 2004 for certain state and foreign taxes. The estimated annual effective tax rate includes an income tax benefit attributable to a decrease in the valuation allowance as a result of the expected utilization of tax net operating loss carryforwards in 2004. The liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes requires that a change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets be included in income tax expense or benefit for the current year. We recorded $150 thousand of net income tax expense for certain state and foreign taxes for the first six months of 2003. We did not recognize an income tax benefit for federal and state taxes for the first six months of 2003 due to the establishment of a valuation allowance for the tax benefit generated on losses in the first six months.
In 2002, we discontinued our interactive marketing business which was acquired with THINK New Ideas. In connection therewith, we claimed a worthless stock deduction for the investment in THINK New Ideas in our 2002 tax return as a result of the discontinuance of THINK New Ideas. We voluntarily requested that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) review this position on an expedited basis. On August 5, 2004 the Company reached an agreement with the IRS representing the final step in the review process. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company and the IRS agreed that the Company was entitled to a worthless stock deduction of $77.3 million on the Companys 2002 tax return. Including this deduction, the Company has approximately $77 million of net operating loss carryforwards as of January 2, 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have funded our operations primarily with cash flow generated from operations and the proceeds from our initial public offering. At July 2, 2004, we had $43.2 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $54.4 million at January 2, 2004. At July 2, 2004 and January 2, 2004 we had $3.0 million on deposit with a financial institution as collateral for letters of credit and have classified this cash as restricted on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We also had marketable investments of $10.0 million at July 2, 2004 and January 2, 2004.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $387 thousand for the six months ended July 2, 2004 compared to $3.6 million during the comparable period of 2003. During the six months ended July 2, 2004, net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to $4.3 million of non-cash expenses offset by a $2.9 million increase in accounts receivable and unbilled revenue, due to an increase in revenues and decreases of $294 thousand in accounts payable and $545 thousand in accrued expenses and other liabilities. During the six months ended July 4, 2003, net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a $9.6 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets primarily related to the $8.5 million tax refund received in the second quarter of 2003. This effect was partially offset by our net loss of $7.0 million, adjusted for $2.6 million of non-cash expenses and a $1.4 million decrease in accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities was $8.2 million for six months ended July 2, 2004 compared to $675 thousand used during the comparative period of 2003. The uses of cash for investing activities in 2004 were primarily attributable to $2.1 million for purchases of property and equipment and $6.1 million used in the acquisition of a business. Cash used in investing activities in 2003 was mainly attributable to $670 thousand of purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash used in financing activities was $3.4 million for the six months ended July 2, 2004 compared to $3.9 million for the comparable period of 2003. During the six months ended July 2, 2004, cash used in financing activities was primarily for the repurchase of our common stock. These repurchases of $5.3 million were offset by proceeds of $1.9 million from the sale of stock as a result of exercises of stock options as well as the sale of stock through our employee stock purchase plan. During the six months ended July 4, 2003, cash used in financing activities was primarily for repurchases of our common stock.
On July 30, 2002, we announced that our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $5.0 million of our common stock. During the second quarters of 2004 and 2003, our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an
15
Table of Contents
additional $5.0 million of our common stock for each of these two quarters. Under the repurchase plans, we may buy back shares of our outstanding stock from time to time either on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. As of July 2, 2004, we had repurchased 4,369,879 shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.98 per share. In June 2003, we repurchased 465,120 shares from the Companys President, who is also a director, at $2.15 per share. We hold repurchased shares of our common stock as treasury stock and account for treasury stock under the cost method. During the third quarter of 2004, the Board of Directors approved an additional $5 million for the repurchase of our common stock thereby increasing the total program size to $20 million.
In May 2004, we purchased the US and India operations of EZCommerce Global Solutions, Inc., a business specializing in the dual-shore implementation of primarily SAP and, to a lesser extent, Oracle software. The purchase price for this acquisition was $9 million in cash, which includes $3.0 million of deferred payments payable in equal installments on the first and second anniversary of the purchase. In addition, approximately $3 million of contingent consideration will be payable over the next two years if certain earnings goals are achieved.
We currently believe that available funds and cash flows generated by operations, if any, will be sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may decide to raise additional funds in order to fund expansion, to develop new or enhanced products and services, to respond to competitive pressures or to acquire complementary businesses or technologies. There is no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available when needed or desired.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
At July 2, 2004, our exposure to market risk related primarily to changes in interest rates on our investment portfolio. Our marketable investments consist primarily of short-term fixed income securities. We invest only with high credit quality issuers and we do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. We do not believe that a significant increase or decrease in interest rates would have a material impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure 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 management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (Disclosure Controls) pursuant to Rule 13a-14(c) and Rule 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, subject to the limitations noted below, our Disclosure Controls are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.
Changes in Internal Controls
Subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.

We are involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business not specifically discussed herein. In the opinion of management, the final disposition of such other matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Item 2. Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
During the quarter ended July 2, 2004, the Company repurchased 819,600 shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $5.3 million, under a $15 million repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors during July 2002 ($5 million), June 2003 ($5 million) and May 2004 ($5 million). All repurchases were made in the open market, subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. There is no expiration date on the current authorization and during the period covered by the table, no determination was made by the Company to suspend or cancel purchases under the program.
