NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and General Information
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Hackett Group, Inc. (Hackett or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the Companys accounts and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries which the Company is required to consolidate. All 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 (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 30, 2011, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC. The consolidated results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and unbilled revenue, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities and debt.
As of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, the carrying amount of all financial instruments, with the exception of the debt, approximated the respective fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments.
The Company uses significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs as defined in accounting guidance) that it believes market participants would use in pricing debt. The fair value of the debt approximated the carrying amount, using Level 2 inputs, due to the short-term variable interest rates based on market rates.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to achieve consistent fair value measurements and to clarify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance includes clarification about when the concept of highest and best use is applicable to fair value measurements, requires quantitative disclosures about inputs used and qualitative disclosures about the sensitivity of recurring Level 3 measurements, and requires the classification of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the fair value hierarchy, including those assets and liabilities which are not recorded at fair value but for which fair value is disclosed. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued changes to the presentation of comprehensive income. These changes give an entity the option 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. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity was eliminated. The items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other

comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income were not changed. These changes became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, except for the reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income that become effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In September 2011, the FASB issued changes that permit an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting units fair value is less than its carrying value before applying the two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place. If it is determined, through the qualitative assessment, that a reporting units fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, the FASB issued changes that permit an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite lived intangible asset is impaired before applying the two-step impairment test that is currently in place. If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that an indefinite lived intangible assets fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. This update is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these changes.
Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

2. Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. With regard to common stock subject to vesting requirements and restricted stock units issued to employees, the calculation includes only the vested portion of such stock and units.
Dilutive net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the assumed conversion of other potentially dilutive securities during the period.
The following table reconciles basic and dilutive weighted average common shares:

Approximately 3.8 million and 0.9 million shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the computations of diluted net income per common share for the quarters ended June 29, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively, as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income per common share. This increase in anti-dilutive shares is from the issuance of performance-based options granted during the quarter ended March 30, 2012 (see Note 6 for further detail).

5. Credit Facility
On February 21, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A. Under the Credit Facility, Bank of America, N.A. agreed to lend the Company up to $20.0 million pursuant to a revolving line of credit (the Revolver) and up to $30.0 million pursuant to a term loan (the Term Loan, and together with the Revolver, the Credit Facility). As of June 29, 2012, the Company had $30.0 million outstanding on the Term Loan and $2.0 million outstanding on the Revolver. Subsequent to June 29, 2012, the Company paid off the Revolver balance in full.
The obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by active existing and future material U.S. subsidiaries of the Company and are secured by substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of the Company (subject to certain exceptions).
The interest rates per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facility will be, at the Companys option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR base rate, plus an applicable margin percentage. The applicable margin percentage is based on the consolidated leverage ratio. Through June 29, 2012, the applicable margin percentage was 2.0% per annum based on the consolidated leverage ratio, in the case of LIBOR rate advances, and 1.25% per annum, in the case of base rate advances.
The Revolver matures on February 21, 2017, and the Term Loan requires amortization principal payments in equal quarterly installments beginning October 1, 2012 through February 21, 2017. The Company is subject to certain covenants and exceptions, including total consolidated leverage, fixed cost coverage and liquidity requirements.
6. Stock Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 29, 2012, the Company issued 1,382,999 restricted stock units at a weighted average grant-date fair value of $3.91 per share. As of June 29, 2012, the Company had 3,050,869 restricted stock units outstanding at a weighted average grant-date fair value of $3.68 per share. As of June 29, 2012, $7.1 million of total restricted stock unit compensation expense related to nonvested awards had not been recognized and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.33 years.
As of June 29, 2012, the Company had 552,839 shares of common stock subject to vesting requirements outstanding at a weighted average grant-date fair value of $3.40 per share. As of June 29, 2012, $0.8 million of compensation expense related to common stock subject to vesting requirements had not been recognized and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.57 years.
During the quarter ended March 30, 2012, the Companys Board of Directors Compensation Committee approved the exchange of one-half of the existing restricted stock unit executive bonus opportunity for the fiscal years 2012 through 2015 for one-time performance-based stock option grants of 3,144,563 options, each with an exercise price of $4.00 per share. These performance-based stock option grants vest one-half upon the achievement of at least 50% growth (from fiscal year 2011) of pro forma earnings per share (as defined) and the remaining half vests upon the achievement of at least 50% growth of pro forma EBITDA (as defined). Each metric can be achieved at any time during the six-year term of the award based on a trailing twelve month period measured quarterly.
As of June 29, 2012, the Company had 3,881,314 options outstanding, of which 82% were performance-based, at a weighted average exercise price of $4.34 per share. Although the targets for the performance-based options have not been achieved, the Company has recorded non-cash compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million in the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively related to these options.

Revenue. We are a global company with operations located primarily in the United States and Western Europe. Our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies, primarily the U.S. Dollar, British Pound, Euro and Australian Dollar, and as a result is affected by currency exchange rate fluctuations. The exchange rate fluctuations had an impact on our revenue comparisons between the quarters and six months ended June 29, 2012 and July 1, 2011; therefore, in the following revenue discussion we will disclose The Hackett Group revenue variances based on the U.S. Dollar reporting currency, as well as variances excluding the impact of currency fluctuations, otherwise referred to below as constant currency. Hackett Technology Solutions was not materially impacted by foreign currency rate fluctuations.
Total Company revenue increased 4% (or 6% in constant currency) and 6% (or 7% in constant currency) for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, as compared to the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011. The following table summarizes revenue (in thousands):

The Hackett Group revenue increased by 7% (or 10% in constant currency) and 9% (or 10% in constant currency) for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, as compared to the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011. The Hackett Groups international revenue, which is primarily based on the country of the contracting entity, accounted for 21% (or 24% in constant currency) and 21% (or 23% in constant currency) of total Company revenue for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to 22% and 21% for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, respectively.
ERP Solutions revenue decreased 7% and 4% for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, as compared to the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, primarily due to lower market demand in the Oracle ERP group.
During the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, one customer accounted for 5% of our total Company revenue and during the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, no customer accounted for more than 5% of our total Company revenue.
14
Cost of Service. Cost of service primarily consists of salaries, benefits and incentive compensation for consultants, subcontractor fees and reimbursable expenses associated with projects. Cost of service before reimbursable expenses increased 6%, or $1.8 million, and 7% or $4.7 million for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, as compared to the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, primarily due to the increased headcount to align resources with market demand.
Total cost of service before reimbursable expenses, as a percentage of revenue before reimbursements, was 64% for both the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to 63% and 64% for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, respectively. As a percentage of revenue before reimbursements, The Hackett Group generated gross margins of 39% for both the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to ERP Solutions, which generated gross margins of 34% and 31% for the same periods, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative costs were $15.1 million and $29.9 million for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, and $15.1 million and $28.3 million for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, respectively. Selling, general and administrative costs as a percentage of revenue before reimbursements decreased to 28% for both the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to 29% for both the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, primarily due to selling, general and administrative leverage on increased revenue.
Income Taxes. We recorded income tax expense of $406 thousand and $514 thousand for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2012, respectively, which reflected an estimated annual tax rate of 9.6% and 6.5%, respectively, for certain federal, foreign and state taxes. For the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2011, we recorded income tax expense of $112 thousand and $272 thousand, respectively, which reflected an estimated annual tax rate of 2.5% and 3.4%, respectively, for certain federal and state taxes. During the quarter ended June 29, 2012, we released the remaining balance of our U.S. federal valuation allowance. As this balance did not offset our U.S. federal tax for the quarter, an additional $0.2 million of U.S. federal tax expense was recorded.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, we had $13.8 million and $32.9 million, respectively, classified in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. During these same periods, we had $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, on deposit with financial institutions that primarily served as collateral for amounts related to employee agreements. These deposit accounts have been classified as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.3 million for the six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended July 1, 2011. The increase in cash flows is primarily due to the benefit of the increase in sales, decrease in days sales outstanding and lower payout of incentive compensation awards during the six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to the six months ended July 1, 2011.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended July 1, 2011. During the six months ended June 29, 2012 and July 1, 2011, cash used in investing activities primarily related to capital expenditures for the Hackett Performance Exchange development. In addition, during the six months ended July 1, 2011, cash used in investing activities included the global rollout of new laptops which occurs every three to four years.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
On March 21, 2012, we completed a tender offer to purchase 11.0 million shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $5.00 per share, for an aggregate cost of approximately $55.0 million, excluding fees and expenses related to the tender offer.
On February 21, 2012, we entered into a Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A. Under the Credit Facility, Bank of America, N.A. agreed to lend us up to $20.0 million from time to time pursuant to a revolving line of credit and up to $30.0 million pursuant to a term loan (the Credit Facility). We utilized $40.0 million of proceeds from the Credit Facility, along with cash on hand, for the purchase of the shares in the tender offer and the payment of all fees and expenses in connection with the tender offer.
15
Net cash used in financing activities was $23.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2012, as compared to $5.7 million for the six months ended July 1, 2011. The increase in the cash used was primarily attributable to the funding of the tender offer and the pay down of the revolving line of credit.
We currently believe that available funds (including the cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit of $18.0 million as of June 29, 2012) and cash flows generated by operations will be sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may decide to raise additional funds in order to fund expansion, to develop new or further enhance 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.
Contractual Obligations
During the six months ended June 29, 2012, we incurred certain long-term debt obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement entered into with Bank of America, N.A. For additional information about the Credit Agreement, please see Liquidity and Capital Resources above and Note 5, Credit Facility, to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
For discussion of recently issued accounting standards, please see Note 1, Basis of Presentation, to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
At June 29, 2012, our exposure to market risk related primarily to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate risks.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Credit Facility, which is subject to variable interest rates. The interest rates per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facility will be, at our option, equal to either a base rate or a LIBOR rate for one-, two-, three- or six-month interest periods chosen by us in each case, plus an applicable margin percentage. A 100 basis point increase in our interest rate under our Credit Facility would not have had a material impact on our second quarter 2012 results of operations.
Exchange Rate Sensitivity
We face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates as a portion of our revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily the British Pound, the Euro and the Australian Dollar. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
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 matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
There have been no material changes to any of the risk factors disclosed in the Companys most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds. |
No shares were repurchased during the quarter under the Companys Board of Director approved share repurchase plan. As of June 29, 2012, the Company had $0.6 million of remaining authorization under this program.
