1.Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Business-Innodata Isogen, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) provide services, products and solutions that our customers use to create, manage, use and distribute digital information.  Our customers include leading media, publishing and information services companies, as well as enterprises that are prominent in information technology, manufacturing, aerospace, defense, financial services, government, healthcare and law.

 

The Company operates in two reporting segments.

 

The Company’s Content Services (CS) segment provides business process, technology and consulting services to assist customers in creating, managing, using and distributing digital content.

 

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company launched Innodata Advanced Data Solutions (IADS) as a separate segment to perform advanced data analysis.  IADS operates through two subsidiaries: Synodex and docGenix. Synodex offers a range of data analysis services in the healthcare, medical and insurance areas.  docGenix provides software products and services that facilitate the generation and analysis of standardized and non-standardized documents for swaps, derivatives, repos, securities lending, prime brokerage, investment management and clearing.  Synodex is a limited liability company that is 77% owned by the Company and docGenix is a limited liability company that is 78% owned by the Company.  The Company purchased certain assets for docGenix from a third party for $0.4 million.

 

Basis of Presentation-The condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. Unless otherwise noted, the accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in the December 31, 2011 consolidated financial statements.

 

Principles of Consolidation-The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Innodata Isogen, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and the Synodex and docGenix limited liability companies that are majority-owned by the Company. The non-controlling interests in the Synodex and docGenix limited liability companies are accounted for in accordance with the non-controlling interest guidance. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates-In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts and billing adjustments, long-lived assets, goodwill, valuation of deferred tax assets, valuation of securities underlying stock-based compensation, litigation accruals, pension benefits, valuation of derivative instruments and estimated accruals for various tax exposures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard regarding the presentation of other comprehensive income (OCI). The new guidance eliminates the option of presenting OCI in the statement of stockholders’ equity, and requires the Company to report items of OCI in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted the guidance in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued an update on the testing of goodwill impairment. The revised standard provides companies with the option of performing a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. An entity can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on none, some, or all of its reporting units, or can bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to step one of the impairment test. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, however early adoption was permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

2.Income taxes

 

The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $2.3 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The portion of unrecognized tax benefits relating to interest and penalties was approximately $0.5 million at both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, if recognized, would have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate.

 

The following presents a roll-forward of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest for the three months ended March 31, 2012 (amounts in thousands):

 

  Unrecognized tax benefits  
Balance - January 1, 2012 $ 2,278  
Interest accrual    24  
Balance – March 31, 2012 $ 2,302  

 

The Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax, as well as income tax in various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to examination by Federal and New Jersey taxing authorities for years prior to 2006. Various foreign subsidiaries currently have open tax years from 2004 through 2010.

Pursuant to an income tax audit by the Indian Bureau of Taxation in March 2006, one of the Company’s Indian subsidiaries received a tax assessment approximating $339,000, including interest, through March 31, 2012, for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2003. Management disagreed with the basis of the tax assessment and filed an appeal with the Appeal Officer against the assessment. In October 2010, the matter was resolved with a judgment in the Company’s favor. Under the Indian Income Tax Act, however, the income tax assessing officer has a right to appeal against the judgment passed by the Appeal Officer. In December 2010, the income tax assessing officer exercised this right, against which the Company has filed an application to defend the case, and the Company intends to contest it vigorously. The Indian Bureau of Taxation has also completed an audit of the Company’s Indian subsidiary’s income tax return for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2004. The ultimate outcome was favorable, and there was no tax assessment imposed for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2004. As of December 31, 2008 and 2009, the Indian subsidiary received a final tax assessment for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005 and 2006 from the Indian Bureau of Taxation, approximating $340,000 and $345,000 respectively, including interest, through March 31, 2012. Management disagreed with the basis of these tax assessments, and filed an appeal against the assessment which it is contesting vigorously. In January 2012, the Indian subsidiary received a final tax assessment of approximately $1.1 million, including interest, through March 31, 2012, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 from the Indian Bureau of Taxation. Management disagrees with the basis of this tax assessment, and has filed an appeal against the assessment. Due to this assessment, the Company recorded a tax provision amounting to $303,000 including interest through March 31, 2012. Based on recent experience and current developments, management believes that the tax provision of $303,000 including interest is adequate. As the Company is continually subject to tax audits by the Indian Bureau of Taxation, the Company assessed the likelihood of an unfavorable assessment for all fiscal years where the Company is not subject to a final tax assessment as of March 31, 2012, and recorded an additional tax provision amounting to approximately $0.9 million including interest through March 31, 2012. The Indian Bureau of Taxation commenced an audit of this subsidiary’s income tax return for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The ultimate outcome cannot be determined at this time.

 

3.Commitments and contingencies

 

Line of Credit-The Company has a $7.0 million line of credit pursuant to which it may borrow up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. Borrowings under the credit line bear interest at the bank’s alternate base rate plus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.5%. The line, which expires in June 2012, is collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable. The Company has no outstanding obligations under this credit line as of March 31, 2012.

 

Litigation-In 2008, the Supreme Court of the Republic of the Philippines refused to review a decision of the Court of Appeals in Manila against a Philippines subsidiary of the Company that is inactive and has no material assets, and purportedly also against Innodata Isogen, Inc., that orders the reinstatement of certain former employees of the subsidiary to their former positions and also orders the payment of back wages and benefits that aggregate approximately $7.5 million. Based on consultation with legal counsel, the Company believes that recovery against the Company is unlikely.

 

The Company is also subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business.

While management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or overall trends in results of operations, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Substantial recovery against the Company in the above-referenced Philippines actions could have a material adverse impact on the Company, and unfavorable rulings or recoveries in the other proceedings could have a material adverse impact on the operating results of the period in which the ruling or recovery occurs. In addition, the Company’s estimate of potential impact on the Company’s financial position or overall results of operations for the above legal proceedings could change in the future.

 

4.Stock options

 

The Company adopted, with stockholder approval, the Innodata Isogen, Inc. 2009 Stock Plan, as amended and restated (the “2009 Plan”). The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2009 Plan is 2,270,118 shares, less one share for every share that becomes subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation Rights (SAR) granted after March 31, 2011, and two shares for every share that becomes subject to an Award other than an Option or SAR granted after March 31, 2011. If after March 31, 2011 (i) any shares subject to an award or portion of any award under the 2001 and 2002 Stock Option Plans (collectively, the “Prior Plans”) that expires or terminates unexercised, becomes unexercisable, or is forfeited, or is otherwise terminated, surrendered or canceled as to any shares without the delivery of shares of Stock or (ii) shares subject to any Award or portion of an Award under the Plan that expires or terminates unexercised, becomes unexercisable, or is forfeited, or is otherwise terminated, surrendered or canceled as to any shares without the delivery of shares of Stock, the applicable shares subject to such award under the Prior Plans or the Award shall thereafter be available for further Awards under the Plan.  Shares that become available for Awards shall be added back as (i) one share for each such share subject to an option under the Prior Plans or an Option or SAR under the Plan, and (ii) as two shares for each such share subject to awards other than Options or SAR under the Plan.

The top three clients generated approximately 56% and 34% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. No other client accounted for 10% or more of revenues in either period. Further, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, revenues from non-US clients accounted for 20% and 37%, respectively, of the Company's revenues.

 

A significant amount of the Company's revenues is derived from clients in the information media and publishing industry. Accordingly, the Company's accounts receivable generally include significant amounts due from such customers. In addition, as of March 31, 2012, approximately 18% of the Company's accounts receivable was from foreign (principally European) clients and 57% of accounts receivable was due from two clients. As of December 31, 2011, approximately 20% of the Company's accounts receivable was from foreign (principally European) clients and 62% of accounts receivable was due from two clients.

   2012   2011 
   (in thousands, except per share amounts) 
         
Net income  attributable to Innodata Isogen, Inc. and Subsidiaries  $3,432   $15 
           
Weighted average common shares outstanding   24,459    25,155 
Dilutive effect of outstanding stock awards   1,515    259 
Adjusted for dilution computation   25,974    25,414 

 

Basic income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed by considering the impact of the potential issuance of common shares, using the treasury stock method, on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. For those securities that are not convertible into a class of common stock, the “two class” method of computing income per share is used.

 

Options to purchase 0.1 million shares of common stock and 1.3 million shares of common stock as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted income per share, because the options exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares, and therefore, the effect would have been antidilutive.

 

8.Derivatives

 

The Company conducts a large portion of its operations in international markets that subject it to foreign currency fluctuations. The most significant foreign currency exposures occur when revenue and associated accounts receivable are collected in one currency and expenses to generate that revenue are incurred in another currency. The Company’s primary exchange rate exposure relates to payroll, other payroll costs and operating expenses in the Philippines, India, Sri Lanka and Israel.

To manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts, authorized under Company policies, with counterparties that were highly rated financial institutions. The Company utilized non-deliverable forward contracts expiring within twelve months to reduce its foreign currency risk.

 

The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking hedge transactions. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. All derivatives are recognized at their fair value and classified based on the instrument’s maturity date. The total notional amount for outstanding derivatives as of March 31, 2012 was $29 million, which is comprised of cash flow hedges denominated in U.S. dollars.

 

The following table presents the fair value of derivative instruments included within the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in thousands):

9.Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, because of the relative short maturity of these instruments.

 

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

·Level 1: Unadjusted quoted price in active market for identical assets and liabilities.

 

·Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1.

 

·Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following table sets forth the liabilities as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 that the Company measured at fair value, on a recurring basis by level, within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands). As required by the standard, assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.

 

March 31, 2012  Level 1   Level 2   Level 3 
Liability               
Derivatives  $   $682   $ 
December 31, 2011   Level 1    Level 2    Level 3 
Liability               
Derivatives  $   $1,782   $ 

 

The Level 2 liabilities contain foreign currency forward contracts. Fair value is determined based on the observable market transactions of spot and forward rates. The fair value of these contracts as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Business Overview

 

Innodata (NASDAQ: INOD) is a leading provider of business process, technology and consulting services, as well as products and solutions, that help our valued clients create, manage, use and distribute digital information. Propelled by a culture that emphasizes quality, service and innovation, we have developed a client base that includes many of the world’s preeminent media, publishing and information services companies, as well as leading enterprises in information-intensive industries such as aerospace, defense, financial services, government, healthcare, high technology, insurance, intelligence, manufacturing and law. 

 

We operate in two reporting segments.

 

Our Content Services (CS) segment provides services that support the creation, enhancement, and repurposing of digital content. These services include high-accuracy conversion to digital text; data analysis and enhancement of legal, financial, medical and technical information; information technology services related to digital content management and products; and consulting services to help clients with strategic and tactical aspects of digital content operations.

 

15
 

 

Our clients include legal and business information providers; scientific, technical and medical publishers; providers of mobile computing devices and digital content distribution platforms; enterprises that create and manage large volumes of product support content; and governmental agencies that manage large volumes of content in support of mission.

 

Most of our business information and publishing clients are in the process of transforming from print publishing to online publishing; from online publishing to multiple-channel distribution that includes web as well as mobile, tablet and eReading devices; or from search-based information products to workflow-based information products. These transformations require the adoption of new strategies, technologies and processes. We help our clients set digital content production and product strategies; integrate new technologies and processes; improve the quality and efficiency of content creation, enrichment and transformation; publish through multiple channels (including portable devices); and build new digital products. 

 

In the second quarter of 2011, we launched Innodata Advanced Data Solutions (IADS) as a separate segment to perform advanced data analysis. IADS operates through two subsidiaries: Synodex and docGenix. Synodex offers a range of document and data analysis services that are tailored to healthcare, medical and insurance companies. docGenix provides financial services institutions with software products and services that facilitate the analysis and management of legal documentation relating primarily to derivatives. We presently own 77% of Synodex and 78% of docGenix, both limited liability companies.

 

Each of our segments is organized and managed around three vectors: a vertical industry focus, a horizontal service/process focus, and a supportive operations focus.

 

The vertically-aligned groups understand our clients’ businesses and strategic initiatives. The vertical group for each particular industry includes experts hired from that industry.

 

Our service/process-aligned groups include engineering personnel and delivery personnel. Our engineering teams are responsible for creating secure and efficient custom workflows and integrating proprietary and third-party technologies to automate manual processes and improve the consistency and quality of our work product. These tools include categorization engines that utilize pattern recognition algorithms based on comprehensive rule sets and related heuristics, data extraction tools that automatically retrieve specific types of information from large data sources, and workflow systems that enable various tasks and activities to be performed across our multiple facilities. 

 

Our globally distributed delivery personnel are responsible for executing our client engagements in accordance with service-level agreements. We deliver services from facilities in the United States, India, the Philippines, Sri Lanka and Israel.

 

Other support groups are responsible for managing diverse enabling functions including human resources, organizational development, network and communications technology infrastructure support and physical infrastructure and facilities management. 

 

Our sales staff, program managers and consultants operate primarily from our North American offices, European locations, as well as from client sites.

 

Revenues

 

We are a leading provider of business process, technology and consulting services, as well as products and solutions. We operate in two reporting segments. Within our content segment, we provide services that support the creation, enhancement, and repurposing of digital content. We price our services based on the quantity delivered or resources utilized and we recognize revenue in the period in which the services are performed and delivered. A substantial majority of our technology and consulting services are provided on a project basis. We price such services on an hourly basis for actual time and expense incurred, or on a fixed-fee, turn-key basis. Revenues for contracts billed on a time-and-materials basis are recognized as services are performed. Revenues under fixed-fee contracts, which are not significant to the overall revenues, are recognized on the percentage of completion method of accounting, as services are performed or milestones are achieved.

 

16
 

 

We consider standard accounting criteria for determining whether to report revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent.  Factors considered include whether we are the primary obligor, have risks and rewards of ownership, and bear the risk that the customer may not pay for the services performed.  If there are circumstances where the above criteria are not met and therefore we are not the principal in providing services, amounts received from customers are presented net of payments in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Revenues include reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, with the corresponding out-of-pocket expenses included in direct operating costs.

 

Direct Operating Costs

 

Direct operating costs consist of direct payroll, occupancy costs, depreciation and amortization, travel, telecommunications, computer services and supplies, and other direct expenses that are incurred in providing services to our clients.

 

Selling and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling and administrative expenses consist of management and administrative salaries, sales and marketing costs, new services research and related software development, professional fees and consultant costs, and other administrative overhead costs.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

 

Revenues

 

Revenues were $25.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $14.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $10.4 million or approximately 71%. The increase in Content Services segment revenues is principally attributable to higher revenues from eBook-related services that we performed for one of our significant clients.

 

Our top three clients generated $14.1 million or 56% and $5.0 million or 34% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. No other client accounted for 10% of more of our total revenues for these periods. Revenues from clients located in foreign countries (principally in Europe) amounted to $5.1 million, or 20%, and $5.4 million, or 37%, of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

17
 

 

Revenues from the IADS segment were $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

Direct Operating Costs

 

Direct operating costs were $16.1 million and $10.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, an increase of $5.4 million or approximately 51%.

 

The increase in direct operating costs was principally attributable to an increase in production headcount and other operating costs in support of increased revenues. The increase in direct operating costs was partially offset by a decrease in direct labor costs achieved primarily from productivity gains. The productivity gains were principally the result of increased efficiency, improvements in our processes and innovation in our technology.

 

Included in total direct operating costs is approximately $1.6 million in costs incurred for the IADS segment for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

These changes in revenues and direct operating costs resulted in a decline in direct operating costs as a percentage of total revenues, to 64% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, from 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Excluding the costs incurred for the IADS segment, the direct operating costs for the Content Services segment would have increased by only $3.8 million, or approximately 36% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the similar period in 2011. Direct operating costs for the Content Services segment, as a percentage of Content Services segment revenues, were 59% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

 

Selling and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling and administrative expenses were $5.4 million, or approximately 21% as a percentage of total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2012, and $4.1 million, or 28% as a percentage of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011, and represents an increase of $1.3 million or approximately 33%.

 

The increase in selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is principally attributable to compensation costs for new personnel hired for sales and marketing, increases in variable employee incentives and $0.5 million on account of our continued investments for the IADS segment.

 

Excluding the $0.5 million costs incurred for the IADS segment, selling and administrative expenses for the Content Services segment would have increased by only $4.9 million, or approximately 21% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Selling and administrative expenses for the Content Services segment, as a percentage of Content Services segment revenues, were 20% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to 28% for the similar period in 2011.

 

Income Taxes

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recorded a provision for income taxes for the U.S. entity and certain but not all of our foreign subsidiaries, as certain foreign subsidiaries are subject to tax holidays or preferential tax rates, thereby lowering our overall effective tax rate compared to the U.S. statutory tax rate. In addition, certain overseas income is not subject to tax in the U.S. unless repatriated.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the provision for income taxes was primarily comprised of the provision we recorded for our foreign subsidiaries, which included a tax benefit recorded by one of our foreign subsidiaries. The provision was partially offset by the tax benefit recorded for the U.S. entity. The benefit from income tax recorded by the U.S. entity resulted primarily from losses incurred by the U.S. entity during the three months ended March 31, 2011. One of our foreign subsidiaries enjoyed a tax holiday in 2011. In addition, certain of our foreign subsidiaries enjoy preferential tax rates. Certain overseas income is not subject to tax in the U.S. unless repatriated.

 

18
 

 

Net Income

 

We generated net income of $3.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to break-even in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The change was primarily attributable to an increase in gross margins resulting from an increase in revenues, and an increase in productivity due to improvements in processes and technology. This increase was partly offset by an increase in selling and administrative expenses primarily due to the hiring of new sales and marketing personnel, an increase in variable employee incentives, and costs incurred for the IADS segment, amounting to $0.5 million.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Selected measures of liquidity and capital resources, expressed in thousands, are as follows:

 

   March 31, 2012   December 31, 2011 
         
Cash and cash equivalents  $18,224   $11,389 
Short term investments - other   4,805    5,828 
Working capital   30,875    28,148 

 

At March 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $18.2 million and short term investments of $4.8 million. We have used, and plan to use, such cash for (i) expansion of existing operations; (ii) general corporate purposes, including working capital; and (iii) possible business acquisitions. As of March 31, 2012, we had working capital of approximately $30.9 million as compared to working capital of approximately $28.1 million as of December 31, 2011. Accordingly, we do not anticipate any near-term liquidity issues.

 

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by our operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $7.7 million, resulting from net income of $2.8 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $1.6 million and $3.3 million provided by working capital changes. Adjustment for non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.9 million for depreciation and amortization and $0.3 million for stock-based compensation expenses. Working capital activities primarily consisted of a source of cash of $2.6 million as a result of net collections of accounts receivable and a source of cash of $0.4 million for increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Cash provided by our operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1.1 million resulting from a break-even position, adjustments for non-cash items of $0.6 million and $0.6 million provided by working capital changes. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.8 million for depreciation and amortization and $(0.4) million for deferred income taxes. Working capital activities primarily consisted of a source of cash of $0.4 million as a result of collections on accounts receivable and a source of cash of $0.4 million for prepaid expenses and other current assets, representing amortization of prepayments previously made.

 

19
 

 

At March 31, 2012, our days’ sales outstanding were approximately 74 days as compared to 66 days as of December 31, 2011. The increase is on account of higher revenues from one of our significant clients and a correspondingly high concentration of accounts receivable balances.

 

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, cash used in our investing activities for capital expenditures were $2.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Capital spending in 2012 principally consisted of the purchase of technology equipment including workstations, computer software, and leasehold improvements. Also included within capital expenditures are costs incurred to develop computer software for the IADS segment, amounting to $0.6 million, and to establish delivery centers in Asia. Capital spending in 2011 related principally to the purchase of technology equipment and computer software. During the next twelve months, we anticipate that capital expenditures for ongoing technology, hardware, software, leasehold improvements, fittings, equipment and infrastructure upgrades, development of proprietary tools and technologies for the IADS segment and establishment of new delivery centers will approximate $5.0 to $6.0 million, a portion of which we may finance. Also included in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is the sale of short-term investments primarily representing proceeds on maturity of $1.0 million of certificates of deposit, and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 is the purchase of short term investments consisting of $0.3 million of certificates of deposit.

 

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

 

Total payments of long-term obligations approximated $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Proceeds from the exercise of stock options amounted to $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012. There were no stock option exercises during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

 

Future Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

 

We have a $7.0 million line of credit pursuant to which we may borrow up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. Borrowings under the credit line bear interest at the bank’s alternate base rate plus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.5%. The line, which expires in June 2012, is collateralized by our accounts receivable. We have no outstanding obligations under this credit line as of March 31, 2012.

 

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, funds generated from our operating activities and funds available under our credit facility will provide sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our financial needs for the next twelve months. However, if circumstances change, we may need to raise debt or additional equity capital in the future. We have historically funded our foreign expenditures from our U.S. Corporate headquarters on an as-needed basis.

Inflation, Seasonality and Prevailing Economic Conditions

 

Our most significant costs are the salaries and related benefits of our employees in Asia. We are exposed to higher inflation in wage rates in the countries in which we operate. We generally perform work for our clients under project-specific contracts, requirements-based contracts or long-term contracts. We must adequately anticipate wage increases, particularly on our fixed-price contracts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to recover cost increases through increases in the prices that we charge for our services to our customers.

 

Our quarterly operating results are subject to certain fluctuations. We experience fluctuations in our revenue and earnings as we replace and begin new projects, which may have some normal start-up delays, or we may be unable to replace a project entirely. These and other factors may contribute to fluctuations in our operating results from quarter to quarter. In addition, as some of our Asian facilities are closed during holidays in the fourth quarter, we typically incur higher wages, due to overtime, that reduce our margins.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources is based on our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts and billing adjustments, long-lived assets, goodwill, valuation of deferred tax assets, value of securities underlying stock-based compensation, litigation accruals, pension benefits, valuation of derivative instruments and estimated accruals for various tax exposures. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates and could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies see Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard regarding the presentation of other comprehensive income (OCI). The new guidance eliminates the option of presenting OCI in the statement of stockholders’ equity, and requires us to report items of OCI in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an update on the testing of goodwill impairment. The revised standard provides companies with the option of performing a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. An entity can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on none, some, or all of its reporting units, or can bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to step one of the impairment test. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, however early adoption was permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Interest rate risk

 

We are exposed to market risk due to interest rate fluctuations with respect to our credit line with a financial institution which is priced based on the bank’s alternate base rate (3.25% at March 31, 2012) plus 0.5% or LIBOR (0.5% at March 31, 2012) plus 2.5%. We have no outstanding obligations under this line. To the extent we utilize all or a portion of this line of credit, changes in the interest rate will have a positive or negative effect on our interest expense.

 

Foreign currency risk

 

We have operations in several international markets that subject us to foreign currency fluctuations. Although the majority of our contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars, a substantial portion of the costs incurred to render services under these contracts is incurred in the local currencies of several international markets where we carry on our operations. Our significant operations are based in the Philippines, India, Sri Lanka and Israel where revenues are generated in U.S. dollars and the corresponding expenses are generated in Philippine peso, Indian rupee, Sri Lanka rupee and Israeli shekel.

 

To mitigate the exposure of fluctuating future cash flows due to changes in foreign exchange rates, we have entered into foreign currency forward contracts. These foreign currency forward contracts were entered into with a maximum term of twelve months and have an aggregate notional amount of approximately $29 million as of March 31, 2012. We may continue to enter into such instruments or other instruments in the future to reduce foreign currency exposure to appreciation or depreciation in the value of these foreign currencies.

 

The impact of foreign currency fluctuations will continue to present economic challenges to us and could negatively impact our overall results of operations. A 10% appreciation in the U.S. dollar’s value relating to hedged currencies would decrease the forward contracts’ fair value by approximately $2.6 million as of March 31, 2012. Similarly, a 10% depreciation in the U.S. dollar’s value relative to hedged currencies would increase the forward contracts’ fair value by approximately $3.2 million. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of our currency exchange rate sensitive forward contracts, if utilized, would be substantially offset by a corresponding decrease or increase in the fair value of the hedged underlying cash flows.

 

Other than the aforementioned forward contracts, we have not engaged in any hedging activities nor have we entered into off-balance sheet transactions or arrangements.

As of March 31, 2012, our foreign locations held cash and short- and long-term investments totaling approximately $16 million.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we performed an evaluation under the supervision, and with the participation, of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
