Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Command Center, Inc. (Command, us, we, or our) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial reporting, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP may have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the fiscal periods presented have been included. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes to the financial statements included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2012.
Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Command and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications: Certain financial statement amounts for the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the net income or loss, or accumulated deficit as previously reported.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consists of demand deposits, including interest-bearing accounts with original maturities of three months or less, held in banking institutions and a trust account. These accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 per institution. As of March 29, 2013 and December 28, 2012, we held deposits in excess of FDIC insured limits of approximately $456,000 and $705,000, respectively.
Fair Value Measures: Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Our policy on fair value measures requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The policy establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The policy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following table sets forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value, whether recurring or non-recurring, at March 29, 2013 and December 28, 2012, and the fair value calculation input hierarchy level that we have determined applies to each asset and liability category.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. For period ended March 29, 2013, the adoption of other accounting standards had no material impact on our financial positions, results of operations or cash flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements not yet Adopted: In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance on testing indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment. The new guidance provides an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying amounts. If an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each asset exceeds its carrying amount, it would not need to calculate the fair value of the asset in that year. If the entity concludes otherwise, it is required to perform an impairment test comparing the carrying value of the intangible asset with its fair value and recognize an impairment loss if necessary. The new guidance is effective for us beginning in our fiscal year 2013.
NOTE 2 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and does not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in our earnings through the conversion of common shares issuable via outstanding stock options and stock warrants, except where its inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Total outstanding common stock equivalents at March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012 were 13,230,053 and 13,524,803, respectively.
Diluted common shares outstanding were calculated as follows:

NOTE 3 – ACCOUNT PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Net accounts receivable sold pursuant to our account purchase agreement were approximately $6.7 million, and the facility maximum was $15 million, at March 29, 2013. At March 29, 2013 the effective interest rate pursuant to this agreement was 6.25% and is payable on the actual amount advanced or $3 million, whichever is greater.
The agreement requires that the sum of the excess available advances, plus our book cash balance at month end, must at all times be greater than accrued payroll and accrued payroll taxes. At March 29, 2013, we were in compliance with this covenant.
NOTE 4 – WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE AND RESERVES
On April 1, 2012, we changed our workers’ compensation carrier to Dallas National in all states in which we operate other than Washington, North Dakota and New York. The Dallas National coverage is a large deductible policy where we have primary responsibility for claims under the policy. Dallas National provides insurance for covered losses and expenses in excess of $350,000 per incident. Per our contractual agreements with Dallas National, we will make payments into, and maintain a balance of, $900,000 in a non-depleting deposit account to cover claims within our self-insured layer. For workers' compensation claims originating in Washington, North Dakota and New York, we pay workers' compensation insurance premiums and obtain full coverage under state government administered programs. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements reflect only the mandated workers' compensation insurance premium liability for workers' compensation claims in these jurisdictions.
As part of our large deductible workers’ compensation programs, our carriers require that we collateralize a portion of our future workers’ compensation obligations in order to secure future payments which become due. This collateral is typically in the form of cash and cash equivalents. At March 29, 2013 and December 28, 2012 we had collateral deposits of approximately $1.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
Workers' compensation expense for temporary workers is recorded as a component of our cost of services and totaled approximately $558,000 and $656,000 for the period ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively.
NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
Issuance of Common Stock: There were no shares issued during the quarter ended March 29, 2013. There are approximately 1.3 million shares to be issued related to the acquisition of DRS, LLC as part of a contingent fee calculation. The shares are to be issued to the owners of DRS, LLC pending final approval by our Board of Directors. Due to the pending issuance, we reclassed $322,874 recorded as a contingent liability to additional paid-in capital in stockholders' equity at March 29, 2013 as the contingent fee was fully earned.
Stock Warrants: The following warrants for our common stock were issued and outstanding on March 29, 2013 and December 28, 2012, respectively:

Of the warrants outstanding, 4.2 million are defined as a derivative instrument and the fair value of these warrants is estimated each period using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Expected volatility is based on historical annualized volatility of our stock. The expected term of warrants issued represents the period of time that warrants issued are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of issuance. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value are as follows:

The change in fair value amounted to approximately $56,000 and $616,000 for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively. These changes are included in the line item Change in fair value of derivative liabilities in our Statements of Income (Operations).
NOTE 6 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
We approved an option plan in 2008 permitting the grant of 6.4 million stock options to employees for the purpose of attracting and motivating employees, officers and directors.
On February 22, 2013, we awarded our new CEO 1.5 million stock options pursuant to our 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. These options were granted with a term of ten years from the date of grant and vest over a period of four years, with 25% vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 25% vesting each anniversary thereafter for the following three years. The exercise price is $.20 per share.
There were 1,342,250 options vested at March 29, 2013 and 1,387,000 options vested at March 30, 2012.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value are as follows:

As of March 29, 2013, there was unrecognized share-based compensation expense totaling approximately $525,000 relating to non-vested options that will be recognized over the next 3.9 years.
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceeding: On August 3, 2012, Trident Seafoods Corporation and Liberty Mutual filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court, Western District of Washington, for declaratory judgment, breach of contract and violation of the Consumer Protection Act. This action is the result of a previous decision of the administrative law judge for the U.S. Department of Labor, wherein it was determined that a former employee of ours was, in fact, an employee of Trident Seafoods, for purposes of the U.S. Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act. Trident Seafoods alleges we have a contractual duty to pay workers’ compensation benefits for the injured “borrowed” employee. We believe the claims asserted by Trident are unfounded and intend to vigorously defend this case.
NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 30, 2013, an amendment to our Account Purchase Agreement with Wells Fargo was signed. The amendment extends the term of the agreement through April, 2016. The facility maximum was reduced from $15 million to $14 million. The major modification to the terms of the previous agreement includes a decrease in the interest rate assessed on any amounts advanced from the greater of 5.50% plus Libor (subject to a minimum of 6.25%) to 3.00% plus Libor. In addition to other changes, the annual facility fee of 1% of the facility threshold in place was reduced to 0.75%, and monitoring fees of $5,000 per month were removed.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and the change in fair value of our derivative liabilities (EBITDA-D) is a non-GAAP measure that represents net income (loss) attributable to Command before interest expense, income tax benefit (expense), depreciation and amortization, and the change in fair value of our derivative liabilities. We utilize EBITDA-D as a financial measure as management believes investors find it a useful tool to perform more meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate our results operations. We believe it is a complement to net income (loss) and other financial performance measures. EBITDA-D is not intended to represent net income (loss) as defined by GAAP, and such information should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of performance prescribed by GAAP.
We use EBITDA-D to measure our financial performance because we believe interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and the change in fair value of our derivative liabilities bear little or no relationship to our operating performance. By excluding interest expense, EBITDA-D measures our financial performance irrespective of our capital structure or how we finance our operations. By excluding taxes on income, we believe EBITDA-D provides a basis for measuring the financial performance of our operations excluding factors that our branches cannot control. By excluding depreciation and amortization expense, EBITDA-D measures the financial performance of our operations without regard to their historical cost. By excluding the change in fair value of our derivative liabilities, EBITDA-D provides a basis for measuring the financial performance of our operations excluding factors that are beyond our control. For all of these reasons, we believe that EBITDA-D provides us and investors with information that is relevant and useful in evaluating our business.
However, because EBITDA-D excludes depreciation and amortization, it does not measure the capital we require to maintain or preserve our fixed assets. In addition, because EBITDA-D does not reflect interest expense, it does not take into account the total amount of interest we pay on outstanding debt nor does it show trends in interest costs due to changes in our financing or changes in interest rates. EBITDA-D, as defined by us, may not be comparable to EBITDA-D as reported by other companies that do not define EBITDA-D exactly as we define the term. Because we use EBITDA-D to evaluate our financial performance, we reconcile it to net income (loss), which is the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA-D to net loss for the periods presented:

Thirteen Weeks Ended March 29, 2013
Summary of Operations: Revenue for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2013 was $19.9 million, an increase of approximately $800,000, or 4.2%, when compared to the first quarter of 2012. Revenue growth was modest year over year as we focused on increasing net income and attracting work with larger gross margins.
Cost of Services: Cost of services was 73.8% and 75.7% of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue decreased largely due to a decrease in our workers compensation expense. This was offset by management’s focus on directing sales efforts to higher margin business through the use of new sales tools and incentives.
Workers' compensation expense was 2.8% and 3.4% of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively. This decrease is attributable to a reduction in our workers’ compensation claims liability as estimated by our actuary.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A): SG&A expenses were 24.9% and 22.6% of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively. This increase is primarily related to an increase in compensation, employee benefits, and bad debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Based on our current operating plan, we anticipate that we will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund our operations into the foreseeable future. If the level of sales anticipated by our financial plan are not achieved or our working capital requirements are higher than planned, we may need to raise additional cash or take actions to reduce operating expenses.
Cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $1.6 million during the period ended March 29, 2013, as compared to cash provided by operations of approximately $191,000 during the same period in 2012. During the first quarter of 2013, the cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $2.7 million. This was offset by payments made to decrease our workers’ compensation premium liability of approximately $809,000, a decrease in accounts payable of approximately $216,000, and a decrease in other current liabilities of approximately $216,000.
Cash used by investing activities totaled approximately $8,000 for the period ended March 29, 2013 compared to cash used by investing activities of approximately $220,000 during the same time period in 2012. For the period ended March 30, 2012, $150,000 was used to purchase DRS, LLC, and approximately $70,000 was used to purchase additional property and equipment.
Cash used by financing activities totaled approximately $2.4 million for the period ended March 29, 2013 and relates to a reduction in our account purchase agreement with Wells Fargo. For the period ended March 30, 2012, approximately $145,000 was used to reduce our account purchase agreement with Wells Fargo and $50,000 was used to reduce notes payable.
Accounts Receivable: At March 29, 2013, we had total current assets of approximately $13.1 million and total current liabilities of approximately $10.9 million. Included in current assets are trade accounts receivable of approximately $10.9 million (net of allowance for bad debts of approximately $558,000). Our cash position at March 29, 2013 was approximately $849,000. Weighted average aging on our trade accounts receivable at March 29, 2013 was 39 days. Actual bad debt expense was 1.4% of revenue during the quarter ended March 29, 2013. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts. We regularly review our accounts receivable for collectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based on historical write-off experience and current economic data and represents our best estimate of the amount of probable losses on our accounts receivable. We typically refer overdue balances to a collection agency at 120 days and the collection agent pursues collection for another 60 days. Most balances over 120 days past due are written off as it is probable the receivable will not be collected. We will continue to monitor and seek to improve our historical collection ratio and aging experience with respect to trade accounts receivable as these are important factors affecting our liquidity.
Financing: We have an account purchase agreement in place which allows us to sell eligible accounts receivable for 90% of the invoiced amount on a full recourse basis up to the facility maximum, $15 million, at March 29, 2013. When the receivable is collected, the remaining 10% is paid to us, less applicable fees and interest. Net outstanding accounts receivable sold pursuant to this agreement at March 29, 2013 were approximately $6.7 million. The term of the agreement is through April, 2014. The agreement bears interest at the greater of the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 5.25% or 6.25% per annum. At March 29, 2013 the effective interest rate was 6.25%. Interest is payable on the actual amount advanced or $3 million, whichever is greater. Additional charges include an annual facility fee equal to one percent of the facility threshold in place, a monthly monitoring fee of $5,000, and lockbox fees. As collateral for repayment of any and all obligations, we granted Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. a security interest in all of our property including, but not limited to, accounts receivable, intangible assets, contract rights, investment property, deposit accounts, and other such assets.
Subsequent to March 29, 2013, an amendment to our account purchase agreement with Wells Fargo was signed. The amendment extends the term of the agreement through April, 2016. The facility maximum was reduced to $14 million. The major modification to the terms of the previous agreement includes a decrease in the interest rate assessed on any amounts advanced to 3.00% plus Libor. In addition to other changes, the annual facility fee of 1% of the facility threshold in place was reduced to 0.75%, and monitoring fees of $5,000 per month were removed.
Workers’ Compensation: On April 1, 2012 we changed our workers’ compensation carriers to Dallas National in all states in which we operate other than Washington, North Dakota and New York. Management believes this change will keep our workers’ compensation expense at a minimum. The Dallas National coverage is a large deductible policy where we have primary responsibility for claims under the policy. Dallas National provides insurance for covered losses and expenses in excess of $350,000 per incident. Per our contractual agreements with Dallas National, we will make payments into, and maintain a balance of, $900,000 in a non-depleting deposit account to cover claims within our self-insured layer.
Effective as of April 1, 2013, we renewed our workers compensation insurance coverage with Dallas National for a period of 12 months. The terms of the coverage for the new policy year remain essentially the same.
There is no established market for trading our common stock. The market for our common stock is limited, and as such shareholders may have difficulty reselling their shares when desired or at attractive market prices. The common stock is not regularly quoted in the automated quotation system of a registered securities system or association. Our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, is quoted on the OTC Markets Group QB (OTCQB) under the symbol “CCNI”. The OTCQB is a network of security dealers who buy and sell stock. The dealers are connected by a computer network which provides information on current “bids” and “asks” as well as volume information. The OTCQB is not considered a “national exchange”. The “over-the-counter” quotations do not reflect inter-dealer prices, retail mark-ups, commissions or actual transactions. Our common stock has continued to trade in low volumes and at low prices. Some investors view low-priced stocks as unduly speculative and therefore not appropriate candidates for investment. Many institutional investors have internal policies prohibiting the purchase or maintenance of positions in low-priced stocks.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1937, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, these controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
On August 3, 2012, Trident Seafoods Corporation and Liberty Mutual filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court, Western District of Washington, for declaratory judgment, breach of contract and violation of the Consumer Protection Act. This action is the result of a previous decision of the administrative law judge for the U.S. Department of Labor, wherein it was determined that a former employee of ours was, in fact, an employee of Trident Seafoods, for purposes of the U.S. Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act. Trident Seafoods alleges we have a contractual duty to pay workers’ compensation benefits for the injured “borrowed” employee. We believe the claims asserted by Trident are unfounded and intend to vigorously defend this case.
There have been no material changes from the Risk Factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 2013.
