Description of Business- Innodata Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a global provider of business process, information technology and professional services that are focused on digital enablement. The Company’s clients comprise several of the world’s leading digital retailers that sell digital content; preeminent publishers and other providers of online business information products; and enterprises in information-intensive industries (such as aerospace, defense, financial services, healthcare, high technology, insurance, and manufacturing) that create and manage large volumes of content to support their products or operations.

The Company operates in two reporting segments: Content Services (CS) and Innodata Advanced Data Solutions (IADS).

The Company’s CS segment provides solutions to digital retailers, information services companies, publishers and enterprises that have one or more of the following broad business requirements: development of digital content (including e-books); development of new digital information products; and operational support of existing digital information products and systems.

The Company formed its IADS segment in mid-2011 to design and develop new capabilities to enable clients in the financial services, insurance, medical and healthcare sectors to improve decision-support through digital technologies. IADS operates through two subsidiaries. Synodex offers a range of services for healthcare, medical and insurance companies, and docGenix provides services to financial services institutions. As of March 31, 2014, Innodata owns 83% of Synodex and 94% of docGenix, both limited liability companies.

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, 2014, and the results of its operations and comprehensive income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. 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, 2013, 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, 2013 consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation-The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Innodata 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 Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 July 2013, the FASB issued guidance on presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This update clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction, or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require and the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This accounting guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Retroactive application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Property and equipment are stated at costs less accumulated depreciation and amortization (in thousands), and consist of the following:

Depreciation and amortization expense of property and equipment was approximately $0.7 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $2.2 million at March 31, 2014 and $2.5 million at December 31, 2013. The portion of unrecognized tax benefits relating to interest and penalties was approximately $0.6 million and $0.8 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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, 2014 (amounts in thousands):

The Company is subject to Federal income tax, as well as income tax in various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to examination by Federal tax authorities for years prior to 2006 and by New Jersey tax authorities for years prior to 2012. Various foreign subsidiaries currently have open tax years from 2003 through 2012.

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 $272,000, including interest, through March 31, 2014, 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 the 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. In 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. The tax assessment amounted to $295,000 and $304,000, including interest through March 31, 2014, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Management disagrees with the basis of these tax assessments, has filed an appeal against the assessments and is contesting them vigorously. In January 2012, the Indian subsidiary received a final tax assessment of approximately $1.0 million, including interest, 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 it. Due to this assessment, the Company recorded a tax provision amounting to $477,000 including interest through March 31, 2014. Based on recent experience and the current regulatory environment, management believes that the tax provision of $477,000 including interest is adequate. In February 2014, 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, 2009. The ultimate outcome was favorable, and there was no tax assessment imposed for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2009. The Company had previously recorded a tax provision amounting to $722,000 including interest for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2009. As the ultimate outcome was favorable, the Company reversed this amount in the first quarter of 2014. The Indian Bureau of Taxation commenced an audit of this subsidiary’s income tax return for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and 2011. The ultimate outcome cannot be determined at this time. As the Company is continually subject to tax audits by the Indian Bureau of Taxation, the Company continuously assesses the likelihood of an unfavorable assessment for all fiscal years for which the Company has not been audited, and as of March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a tax provision amounting to $562,000 including interest for such years.

The Company from time to time is also subject to various other tax proceedings and claims for its Philippines subsidiaries. The Company has recorded a tax provision amounting to $271,000 including interest through March 31, 2014, for several ongoing tax proceedings in the Philippines. Although the ultimate outcome cannot be determined at this time, the Company continues to contest these claims vigorously.

Line of Credit - The Company has a $15.0 million uncommitted bank line that expires in June 2014 which provides that at the bank’s discretion the Company may on a secured basis borrow amounts equal to up to 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable at the bank’s alternate base interest rate plus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.5%. The Company has never made any borrowings under this line. In February 2014, the bank advised the Company that it did not intend to make any advances or extensions of credit or other financial accommodations under the line, and that it would not consider permitting advances in the future unless and until it has received from the Company designated financial and business information, all in form and substance satisfactory to the bank.

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 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 $8.0 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 action 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.

The Company’s legal reserves related to legal proceedings and claims are based on a determination of whether or not a loss is probable. The Company reviews outstanding proceedings and claims with external counsel to assess probability and estimates of loss. The reserves are adjusted if necessary. While the Company intends to defend these matters vigorously, adverse outcomes that it estimates could reach approximately $250,000 in the aggregate beyond recorded amounts are reasonably possible. If circumstances change, the Company may be required to record adjustments that could be material to its reported financial condition and results of operations.

The Company adopted, with stockholder approval, the Innodata Inc. 2013 Stock Plan (the “2013 Plan”). The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered, purchased or used for reference purposes with respect to awards granted under the 2013 Plan is 1,041,096 shares, plus any shares subject to an award or portion of any award under the Innodata Isogen, Inc. 2009 Stock Plan, as amended and restated (the “Prior Plan”) that were outstanding as of June 4, 2013 that expire or terminate unexercised, become unexercisable or are forfeited or otherwise terminated, surrendered or canceled as to any shares without the delivery of shares of stock or other consideration. Shares of stock subject to options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) granted under the 2013 Plan count against the share reserve as one share for every one share subject to such option or SAR and shares subject to any other type of award granted under the 2013 Plan count against the share reserve as two shares for every one share subject to such award. If any award, or portion of an award, under the 2013 Plan expires or terminates unexercised, becomes unexercisable or is forfeited or otherwise terminated, surrendered or canceled as to any shares without the delivery of shares of stock or other consideration, the shares subject to such award will thereafter be available for further awards under the 2013 Plan as provided in the next sentence. Shares of stock that again become available for awards pursuant to the expiration, termination, forfeiture or cancellation of any award (other than an option or SAR) granted under the 2013 Plan, or of any award (other than an option or SAR) granted after March 31, 2011 under the Prior Plan, will be added back as two shares for every one share subject to such award or Prior Plan award. All other awards under the 2013 Plan and all other awards under the Prior Plan will be added back as one share for every one share subject to such award or Prior Plan award. The number of shares used for reference purposes in connection with these awards will be considered "delivered" for purposes of computing the maximum number of shares that may be delivered under the Plan.

A summary of option activity under the Company’s stock option plans as of March 31, 2014, and changes during the period then ended, is presented below:

The fair value of stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average fair values of the options granted and weighted average assumptions are as follows:

A summary of restricted shares under the Company’s stock plans as of March 31, 2014, and changes during the period then ended, are presented below:

The total compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards not yet recognized as of March 31, 2014 totaled approximately $1.4 million. The weighted-average period over which these costs will be recognized is twenty-four months.

The stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s various stock awards was allocated as follows (in thousands):

In March 2014, the Company’s Chairman and CEO (the “CEO”) exercised 154,000 stock options at a total exercise price of $0.4 million. The CEO paid the exercise price by surrendering to the Company 137,065 of the shares of common stock he would have otherwise received on the option exercise. In addition, the CEO surrendered 7,866 shares to the Company in consideration of the payment by the Company on his behalf of $22,891 of the Company’s minimum withholding tax requirement payable in respect of the option exercise. Because the payment value attributable to the surrendered shares upon settlement does not exceed the fair value of the option, no compensation cost was recognized at the date of settlement. In connection with this transaction, the Company issued a net total of 9,069 shares of common stock to the CEO.

Total long-term obligations as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consist of the following (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ In March 2014, the Company renewed a vendor agreement to acquire certain additional software licenses and to receive support and subsequent software upgrades on these and other currently owned software licenses through February 2017. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company is obligated to pay approximately $0.4 million annually over the term of the agreement. The total cost, net of deferred interest (in thousands), was allocated to the following asset accounts in 2014:

⁽²⁾ Deferred lease payment represents the effect of straight-lining lease payments over the contractual lease term.

⁽³⁾ In March 2014 the Company entered into a Master Lease agreement with a financing company involving certain equipment. Under the terms of the contract the Company leased the equipment for a period of 36 months at an effective interest rate of approximately 6% and had the option to purchase the equipment at a nominal amount at the end of the lease term. The Company has accounted for this as a financing arrangement, wherein the equipment remains on the Company’s books and will continue to be depreciated. The cash proceeds from the transaction were $0.9 million.

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, consists of pension liability adjustments, net of taxes, and changes in fair value of derivatives, net of taxes. The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of March 31, 2014, and reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, were as follows (net of tax):

All reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) had an impact on direct operating costs in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

The Company’s operations are classified into two reportable segments: Content Services (CS) and Innodata Advanced Data Solutions (IADS).

The CS segment provides solutions to digital retailers, information services companies, publishers and enterprises that have one or more of the following broad business requirements: development of digital content (including e-books); development of new digital information products; and operational support of existing digital information products and systems.

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company launched its IADS 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 services to certain financial services institutions.

A significant portion of the Company’s revenues are generated from its production facilities in the Philippines, India, Sri Lanka and Israel.

Revenues from external clients and segment operating profit (loss), and other reportable segment information are as follows (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ Before elimination of any inter-segment profits

⁽²⁾ After elimination of any inter-segment profits

The following table summarizes revenues by geographic region (determined based upon customer’s domicile) (in thousands):

Long-lived assets as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, by geographic region, are comprised of (in thousands):

One client generated approximately 19% and 13% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. One additional client accounted for 12% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 but accounted for less than 10% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Two other clients accounted for less than 10% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 but accounted for 29% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013. No other client accounted for 10% or more of total revenues during these periods. Further, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenues from non-U.S. clients accounted for 43% and 29%, respectively, of our total revenues.

As of March 31, 2014, approximately 48% of the Company's accounts receivable was from foreign (principally European) clients and 55% of accounts receivable was due from four clients. As of December 31, 2013, approximately 38% of the Company's accounts receivable was from foreign (principally European) clients and 65% of accounts receivable was due from four clients.

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 1.6 million shares and 0.4 million shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, 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.

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, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $15 million and $15.2 million, respectively, 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 sheets as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

The effects of foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ Net change in the fair value of the effective portion classified in other comprehensive income ("OCI").

⁽²⁾ Effective portion classified as direct operating costs.

⁽³⁾ There were no ineffective portions for the periods presented.

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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 assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 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.

The Level 2 assets and 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, 2014 is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and December 31, 2013 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Business Overview

Innodata (NASDAQ: INOD) is a global provider of business process, information technology and professional services that are focused on digital enablement. Our clients comprise several of the world’s leading digital retailers that sell digital content; preeminent publishers and other providers of online business information products; and enterprises in information-intensive industries (such as aerospace, defense, financial services, healthcare, high technology, insurance, and manufacturing) that create and manage large volumes of content to support their products or operations.

We operate in two reporting segments: Content Services (CS) and Innodata Advanced Data Solutions (IADS).

Our CS segment provides solutions to digital retailers, information services companies, publishers and enterprises that have one or more of the following broad business requirements: development of digital content (including eBooks); development of new digital information products; and operational support of existing digital information products and systems.

Many of our clients are driving or are responding to rapid and fundamental changes in the way end users discover, consume and create published information. For some of our publishing and information services clients, this means transforming information products from print to digital; for others, it means migrating already-digital products from web-only distribution to multiple-channel distribution that includes mobile and tablet devices and incorporates mobility, social platform and semantic search; and for others still it means re-tooling pure search-based information products into workflow-embedded analytical tools that combine content with software to enable context-aware decision-making; and for a select number of our information services clients, it means embracing the content-as-a-service model to integrate content with other tools, applications and data. Each of these transformations requires shifts in products, as well as the technology and the operations that support them.

For our enterprise publishing clients, changes in the way end users discover, consume and create published information often necessitates replacing old processes and technologies that generated static, whole documents with new processes and technologies that enable content to reside as modular components which are re-combined dynamically to create up-to-date, product-specific assembly guides, engineering diagrams/schematics, compliance documentation, field operations guides and clinical documentation destined simultaneously for the web, tablets and smartphones.

By blending consulting, technology and operations sourcing, along with deep domain expertise, we provide measurable outcomes for publishing companies, information services companies and enterprises through business transformation, accelerating innovation and efficient operations.

We are one of the largest producers of e-books, serving four of the five leading digital retailers of e-books as well as 80 leading trade, education and professional publishers that sell e-books. We manufacture both standard e-books and interactive e-books in a variety of formats (including EPUB, Mobi and Kindle) and in 12 major languages (including Japanese and Chinese). In addition, we distribute e-books on behalf of publishers and authors to more than 25 e-book retailers across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia and 24 countries in the European Union. Since the fall of 2011, we have produced over 1 million e-book titles.

We help our clients develop high-value information products and knowledge repositories. Our clients include four of the ten largest information industry companies in the world, spanning financial, legal, healthcare and scientific information.

We work with clients at a strategic business and technology level to address business process and technology challenges related to digital content supply chain optimization and strategy. By aligning operations and technology with business goals, we help businesses accelerate new product development and introduction; control cost; consolidate and leverage technology investment; and obtain benefits of scale.

Many enterprises are embracing new digital information technologies and workflow processes within their operations in order to improve internal decision-support systems. We formed our IADS segment in mid-2011 to design and develop new capabilities to enable clients in the financial services, insurance, medical and healthcare sectors to improve decision-support through digital technologies. We believe that by creating and commercializing innovative business strategies and technology solutions we will be able to accelerate our growth and reduce our revenue volatility.

IADS operates through its Synodex LLC and docGenix LLC subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2014 we owned 83% of Synodex and 94% of docGenix.

The main focus of the Synodex business is the extraction and classification of data from unstructured medical records in an innovative way to provide improved data service capabilities for insurance underwriting, insurance claims, medical records management and clinical trial support services. Synodex has developed and piloted its APS.Extract^® product for specific use with life, disability and long-term care insurance underwriting and claims and has cultivated a large number of interested clients in both the U.S. and the U.K. Most recently, Synodex launched its Synodex.Connect^® platform to facilitate digital data exchange for underwriting workflows between independent brokers and insurance carriers, including delivery of Synodex’s APS.Extract data and reports.

The main focus of the docGenix business is the extraction and classification of data from unstructured legal documents in order to improve an organization’s ability to analyze documentation and feed actionable data to downstream applications.

The IADS subsidiaries are in a developmental stage, have incurred losses since inception, and have reported minimal revenues through 2014. Our cumulative investment in these subsidiaries was $25.5 million as of March 31, 2014, consisting of $18.5 million in operating expenses and $7.0 million in capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has written off all the fixed assets of IADS. In the immediate future we intend to continue to invest in these subsidiaries at the combined rate of $1.5 to $2.0 million per quarter.

Our services are 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 and European locations, as well as from client sites.

Revenues

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. 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.

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 a client 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 clients are presented net of payments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

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, realized gain (loss) on forward contracts, foreign currency revaluation gain (loss), 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, 2014 and 2013

Revenues

Total revenues were $14.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $16.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decline of $2.8 million or approximately 17%. Revenues from the CS segment were $14.0 million and $16.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decline of $2.3 million or approximately 14%. This decline is primarily attributable to a reduction in e-book-related services of approximately $1.6 million that we performed for one of our significant clients and approximately $1.2 million from one of our non-e-book clients. The decline in revenues was partly offset by an increase in revenues from other customers. Revenues from the IADS segment were $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

One client generated approximately 19% and 13% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. One additional client accounted for 12% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 but accounted for less than 10% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Two other clients accounted for less than 10% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 but accounted for 29% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013. No other client accounted for 10% or more of total revenues during these periods. Further, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenues from non-U.S. clients accounted for 43% and 29%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs were $10.3 million and $12.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decline of $2.5 million or 20%. Direct operating costs for the CS segment were $9.2 million and $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decline of $2.7 million or 23%. Direct operating costs for the IADS segment were $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the respective periods, net of intersegment profits, an increase of $0.2 million.

Direct operating costs as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to 76% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Direct operating costs for the CS segment as a percentage of CS segment revenues were 65% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

The decline in direct operating costs for the CS segment and as a percentage of CS segment revenues was principally attributable to a decrease in production headcount due to a decline in CS revenues, and achieving productivity gains. The productivity gains were principally the result of increased efficiency and improvements in our processes and technology.

Direct operating costs for the IADS segment represents certain production costs for initial engagements, including pilot engagements, and facility overhead costs for our new delivery center in Asia.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses were $3.8 million, or 27% as a percentage of total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2014, and $4.6 million, or approximately 27% as a percentage of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and represents a decrease of $0.8 million or approximately 17%. Selling and administrative expenses for the CS segment were $3.4 million and $3.9 million in these respective periods. Selling and administrative expenses for the IADS segment for the respective periods were $0.4 million and $0.7 million, net of intersegment profits.

Selling and administrative expenses for the CS segment as a percentage of CS segment revenues were 24% for both the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

We restructured our operations over the past few quarters which resulted in cost savings in the second half of 2013 and in the first quarter of 2014. This led to a decline in selling and administrative expense for the CS segment during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the similar period in 2013.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded a provision for income taxes in accordance with local tax regulations for our foreign subsidiaries. Some of our foreign subsidiaries are subject to tax holidays or preferential tax rates which reduces our overall effective tax rate when compared to the U.S. statutory tax rate. In addition, the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are not subject to tax in the U.S. unless the earnings are repatriated. The provision for income taxes recorded by our foreign subsidiaries was partially offset by a reversal of a tax provision on account of a favorable outcome in one of the tax proceedings of our Indian subsidiary.

We had created a valuation allowance on all of our U.S. deferred tax assets on account of continuing losses incurred by our U.S. entity. As of March 31, 2014, we continue to keep a valuation allowance on all of our U.S. deferred tax assets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 we recorded a net benefit from income taxes, as our U.S. entity recorded a benefit from income tax on account of losses it incurred; and with respect to our foreign subsidiaries, we recorded a provision for income taxes in accordance with local tax regulations. Some of our foreign subsidiaries are subject to tax holidays or preferential tax rates which reduces our overall effective tax rate when compared to the U.S. statutory tax rate. In addition, the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are not subject to tax in the U.S. unless the earnings are repatriated.

Net Income

We generated net income of $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to net income of $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Net income for the CS segment was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to net income of $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, net of intersegment profits. The increase in net income in the CS segment is primarily on account of an increase in gross margins despite lower revenues and a decline in selling and administrative costs. The increase in net income was partially offset by an increase in tax expense.

Net loss for the IADS segment was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, net of intersegment profits. The loss is primarily on account of lower gross margins resulting from lower revenues and the impact of operating leverage.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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

At March 31, 2014 we had cash and cash equivalents of $29.2 million, of which $23.5 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries located in Asia with the $5.7 million balance held in the United States. If needed, amounts held by foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated to the United States to satisfy working capital needs of the U.S. entity, but under current law, such amounts would be subject to United States federal income taxes. As of March 31, 2014, our intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside the United States.

We have used, and plan to use, such cash for (i) investments in IADS, which are expected to be at the rate of $1.5 million to $2.0 million per quarter in the immediate future, (ii) the expansion of our other operations; (iii) general corporate purposes, including working capital; and (iv) possible business acquisitions. As of March 31, 2014, we had working capital of approximately $30.2 million, as compared to working capital of approximately $28.9 million as of December 31, 2013.

We have a $15.0 million uncommitted bank line that expires in June 2014 which provides that, at the bank’s discretion, we may, on a secured basis, borrow amounts equal to up to 80% of our eligible accounts receivable at the bank’s alternate base interest rate plus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.5%. We have not made any borrowings under this line. In February 2014, the bank advised that it did not intend to make any advances or extensions of credit or other financial accommodations under the line, and that it would not consider permitting advances in the future unless and until it had received from us designated financial and business information in form and substance satisfactory to the bank.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and internally generated funds will provide sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our financial needs for the next 12 months. However, we may curtail our continuing investments in our IADS segment if these funds are insufficient and outside financing is not available on terms we find attractive.

In the second quarter of 2012, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 to give us the ability to offer from time to time up to an aggregate of $70 million of securities, which may consist of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, or units consisting of any of the foregoing. The registration is intended to give us flexibility should financing opportunities arise.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities

Cash provided by our operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $4.3 million, resulting from a net loss of $0.1 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $1.0 million, and $3.4 million provided by working capital changes. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.7 million for depreciation and amortization and stock option expense of $0.2 million. Working capital activities primarily consisted of a source of cash of $3.4 million as a result of net collections of accounts receivable.

Cash provided by our operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $3.1 million, resulting from net income of $0.1 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $0.5 million and $2.6 million provided by working capital changes. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.9 million for depreciation and amortization and $0.3 million for stock-based compensation expense. Working capital activities primarily consisted of a source of cash of $4.1 million as a result of net collections of accounts receivable and a use of cash of $1.0 million for a decrease in accrued salaries, wages and related benefits.

Our days’ sales outstanding (DSO) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was approximately 65 days as compared to 74 days for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease is on account of the collection of outstanding amounts from one of our significant clients. We calculate DSO by first dividing the total revenues for the period over average net accounts receivable, which is the sum of net accounts receivable at the beginning of the period and net accounts receivable at the end of the period, to yield an amount we refer to as the “accounts receivable turnover”. Then we take the total number of days within the period reported over the accounts receivable turnover to yield DSO expressed in number of days.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, cash used in our investing activities for capital expenditures was $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Capital spending in 2014 and 2013 principally consisted of the purchase of technology equipment including servers, network infrastructure and workstations. During the next twelve months, we anticipate that capital expenditures for ongoing technology, equipment, infrastructure upgrades and development of our proprietary software platform, tools and technologies for both CS and IADS will approximate $3.0 to $4.5 million, a portion of which we may finance. Also included in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 is the purchase of short-term investments primarily representing proceeds on maturity of $0.5 million of certificates of deposit.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities represents the net proceeds from a capital lease transaction we entered into during the first quarter of 2014 amounting to $0.9 million. Total payments of long-term obligations approximated $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Proceeds from the exercise of stock options amounted to $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Contractual Obligations

The table below summarizes our contractual obligations (in thousands) at March 31, 2014 and the effects that those obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

Future expected obligations under our pension benefit plan have not been included in the contractual cash obligations in the table above.

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 clients.

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 condensed 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 ongoing 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, 2013. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued guidance on presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This update clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This accounting guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Retroactive application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance had no 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, 2014) plus 0.5%, or LIBOR (0.20% at March 31, 2014) 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 $15.0 million as of March 31, 2014. 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 $1.4 million as of March 31, 2014. Similarly, a 10% depreciation in the U.S. dollar’s value relative to hedged currencies would increase the forward contracts’ fair value by approximately $1.7 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, 2014, our foreign locations held cash and short term investments totaling approximately $23.5 million. These assets are exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from changes in foreign exchange rates. At present, we do not enter into any hedging instruments to mitigate foreign exchange risk on such assets; however, we may do so in the future.

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.
