Business

Overview

Telos Corporation, together with its subsidiaries , (the “Company” or “Telos” or “We”) is an information technology leader focused on designing and providing advanced technologies to deliver solutions that empower and protect the world’s most demanding enterprises. We empower our customers with secure solutions that leverage mobile communication and real-time collaboration. We protect vital assets that include the critical operational and tactical systems of our customers so that they can safely conduct their global missions. Our customer base consists primarily of military, intelligence and civilian agencies of the federal government and NATO allies around the world.

We generate approximately 82.7% of our revenues by delivering these solutions at a fixed price to our customers. This focus on fixed price delivery has enabled us to significantly reduce life cycle costs for our customers. We have been able to achieve this by investing in intellectual property development so that we can use automation, when appropriate.

While we were incorporated in 1971, we liquidated and/or sold our original businesses and refocused on delivering secure solutions beginning in 1997. Our Company includes Telos Corporation, Xacta Corporation, Teloworks, Inc. and a 60% interest in Telos Identity Management Solutions, LLC (“Telos ID”). In July 2011, we acquired all of the assets of IT Logistics, Inc. (“ITL”), see Note 3 – Acquisition of IT Logistics, Inc. to the consolidated financial statements.

We are incorporated in Maryland, and our headquarters are located at 19886 Ashburn Road, Ashburn, VA 20147, and our telephone number is (703) 724-3800. Our website is www.telos.com.

Our Mission

Our mission is to secure critical assets by protecting communications, systems, networks, and access.

We believe that our customer focus is the foundation of our success to date. We also believe that this focus is critical for the creation of long-term value.

How We Provide Value to Our Customers

We serve our customers by developing solutions that are quickly and efficiently deployed so that our customers have the assurance that they can safely conduct their vital missions around the world. Some of the key benefits we offer our customers include:

Protecting and Securing Assets. Whether we are guarding access to systems, networks, communications, or people, our solutions work to protect what is most important to today’s security-conscious enterprises.

Applying Specialized Expertise. Our teams of security professionals, such as those we provide to protect the Pentagon’s critical networks, are some of the industry’s most experienced in the design and operation of communications systems that must be reliable and secured 24/7.

Achieving Regulatory Compliance. From embedding the latest security standards in our information assurance software, to complying with network security requirements on a particular military base, our solutions give our customers the confidence in their ability to meet established security regulations.

Ensuring the Reliability of Operations. Our testing is comprehensive, assuring our customers of a dependable product when delivered. Our support is worldwide, extending from helpdesk resources for government agencies throughout the country, to field support overseas.

Leveraging Customers’ Existing Infrastructure. Our pre-deployment assessment of our customers’ environments, ranging from secure network site surveys to evaluations of physical security access, assures our customers of the technical and operational compatibility of our solutions.

Selected Examples of How We Accomplish Our Mission

We protect and enhance the communications of our customers through the development and delivery of our Telos Secure Information eXchange (T-6) platform for unified communication and collaboration. T-6 includes Telos Automated Message Handling System (“AMHS”), which has been adopted by the Department of Defense to carry all official message traffic and is implemented throughout all branches of the military, the intelligence community and other critical civilian agencies. AMHS is also used by U.S. Central Command to meet its critical organization and communications requirements in the CENTCOM Theater of Operations including Iraq and Afghanistan.

We protect the systems of our customers through the development and delivery of our Xacta IA Manager software (“Xacta”). Our Xacta solution is the dominant provider of continuous certification and is used throughout the Department of Defense, intelligence communities and civilian government. To date, we have performed over 4,200 certifications and our product has been adopted as the risk management framework for numerous enterprises.

We protect and extend the networks of our customers by developing and delivering over 40,000 high speed, long range, secure tactical wireless network modules providing last mile connectivity between our warfighters around the world and the U.S. Army logistics networks. We also empower our customers with advanced applications that leverage mobile devices and multi-user, multi-touch interfaces to put mission-critical information literally at users’ fingertips.

Through an exclusive subcontractor relationship with Telos ID, we assess, design and deliver identity and access solutions to protect national security assets, people and facilities. Among these programs is the premier federal identity application, which has issued almost 30,000,000 smart card based secure credentials for active and retired military, military dependents and contractors. Additionally, we provide near real-time data collection on personnel movement and location information for operating forces, government civil servants and government contractors in specified operational theaters. This system has captured over 377,000,000 scans with more than 146,000 deployed contractors.

We would not be able to design, deliver, install, and support any of our solutions without our employees. They are a vital element of our success. Our employees know this because we reflect it in their compensation and benefits.

Solutions For Our Customers

Our solution development philosophy involves rapid development and continuous innovation in an effort to keep pace with the dynamic and evolving nature of our customers’ requirements.

Our IT solutions consist of the following:

Cyber Operations and Defense (formerly Secure Networks and Information Assurance) – Secure wired and wireless network solutions for Department of Defense (“DoD”) and other federal agencies. We provide an extensive range of wired and wireless voice, data, and video secure network solutions and mobile application development to support defense and civilian missions. In July 2011, we acquired all of the assets of IT Logistics, Inc. (“ITL”) and incorporated such assets into our Secure Networks business solutions. Software products and consulting services automate, streamline, and enforce IT security and risk management processes enterprise-wide. We offer information assurance consulting services and Xacta brand GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) solutions to protect and defend IT systems, ensuring their availability, integrity, authentication, and confidentiality.

The Technology Behind Our Solutions

Techniques: We employ development and production methodologies such as Agile and ISO 9001 to ensure predictability, repeatability, and quality. Techniques such as continuous integration are employed to accelerate the solution development and testing process while at the same time reducing cost and improving quality. We believe such techniques are critical for providing our customers with a high quality user experience.

Architecture: The nature of our customers’ missions requires our solutions to be highly secure and scalable. Aside from architecting our solutions with these core objectives in mind, we also employ open standards and technologies that afford a high degree of flexibility and interoperability needed to support web-based and netcentric operations.

Intellectual Property

We invest in the creation of intellectual property and employ various forms of legal intellectual property protection mechanisms including the use of copyright, trademark, patent, and trade secret laws in North America and other jurisdictions. We have intellectual property reviews as an integral part of our development process in order to identify intellectual property as early as possible in the development process so the appropriate form of protection can be obtained. We also vigorously control access to intellectual property via physical and logical protection mechanisms. All of our employees sign agreements that govern intellectual property ownership and confidentiality. We also enter into intellectual property, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with partners and other third parties.

Patents, Trademarks, Trade Secrets and Licenses

We have made it a practice of obtaining patent and/or copyright protection on our products and processes where possible. We own a number of patents and copyrights, which we believe to be of material importance to the Company. Our patents and copyrights extend for varying periods of time based on the date of application or registration. Generally, registered copyright protection continues for a term of at least 70 years. Trademark and service mark protection for registered marks generally continues for as long as the marks are used.

Telos and Xacta are trademarks of Telos Corporation. Telos ID is a trademark of Telos Identity Management Solutions, LLC.

Sales and Marketing

We target decision makers in government agencies and departments, and commercial businesses who have a need for secure enterprise solutions. Decisions regarding contract awards by our customers typically are based upon an assessment of the quality of our past performance, responsiveness to proposal requirements, uniqueness of the offering itself, price, and other competitive factors.

Our products and services in many instances combine a wide range of skills drawn from each of our major product and service offerings. Accordingly, we must maintain expert knowledge of federal agency policies, procedures and operations.

We employ marketing and business development professionals who identify, qualify, and sell opportunities for us. Virtually all of our officers and managers, including the chief executive officer, executive officers, vice presidents, and division managers, actively engage in new business development.

We have strategic business relationships with certain companies in the information technology industry. These strategic partners have business objectives compatible with ours, and offer products and services that complement ours. We intend to continue developing such relationships wherever they support our marketing, growth and solution offering objectives.

The majority of our business is awarded through submission of formal competitive bids. Commercial bids are frequently negotiated as to terms and conditions such as schedule, specifications, delivery and payment. However, in government proposals, in most cases, the customer specifies the terms, conditions and form of the contract.

Our contracts and subcontracts are generally composed of a wide range of contract types including indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (“IDIQ”) and government-wide acquisition contracts (known as “GWACs”) which are generally firm fixed-priced or time-and-materials contracts. For 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Company’s revenue derived from firm fixed-price contracts was 82.7%, 88.8%, and 82.8%, respectively, and time-and-material contracts was 17.3%, 11.2%, and 17.2%, respectively.

Our IT solutions primarily involve the design and integration of commercial off-the-shelf IT products into integrated solutions deliverables. Such equipment is generally available from several sources, although several factors including technical specifications, proprietary or brand-specific equipment requirements, or contractual channel agreements may limit the availability of sourcing options. We utilize more than 300 vendors as direct materials suppliers, subcontractors, and service providers. The vendors utilized in any given measurement period vary based on the mix and the timing of the solutions delivered, but typically our contracts are a smaller subset that comprises the majority of the direct cost of sales on an annual basis. Therefore, while a smaller subset of suppliers, subcontractors, and service providers may be employed to deliver the majority of the revenue for a particular period, were there to be an unforeseen disruption to one of these vendors, the delay would likely be short-term in nature due to the existence of alternate sourcing options.

We derived substantially all of our revenues from contracts and subcontracts with the U.S. Government. Revenue by customer sector for the last three fiscal years is as follows:

	2012				2011				2010
					(dollar amounts in thousands)

Federal	$	224,010	99.1	%	$	188,162	99.1	%	$	220,017	97.4	%
Commercial		2,086	0.9	%		1,726	0.9	%		5,780	2.6	%

Total	$	226,096	100.0	%	$	189,888	100.0	%	$	225,797	100.0	%

We build market awareness of Telos and our solutions through a variety of marketing programs, including regular briefings with industry analysts, public relations activities, government relations initiatives, web seminars, trade show exhibitions, speaking engagements and web site marketing. When appropriate, we pursue joint marketing and selling efforts with our strategic partners. In addition, we host a conference, Security Solutions, which is a unique, three-day learning and information-sharing event that consistently attracts top security professionals from all military branches, government agencies, and the intelligence field.

Our People and Culture

As of December 31, 2012, we employed 560 people, which includes 39 from Teloworks, and 74 from Telos ID. Of our employees, 417 hold security clearances of secret or higher.

Our people are proficient in many fields such as computer science, information security and vulnerability testing, networking technologies, physics, engineering, operations research, mathematics, economics, and business administration. We place a high value on our people. As a result, we seek to remain competitive in terms of salary structures, incentive compensation programs, fringe benefits, opportunities for growth, and individual recognition and award programs.

Our management team is committed to maintaining a corporate culture that fosters mutual respect and job satisfaction for our people, while delivering innovation and value to customers and shareholders. This commitment is reflected in our core values.

Always with integrity, at Telos we:

Build trusted relationships,

Work hard together,

Design and deliver superior solutions, and

Have fun doing it.

These values are woven throughout the fabric of Telos. They are reflected in our hiring practices, reinforced regularly, and reviewed during appraisals. They are written into annual and quarterly objectives for staff and managers alike, as well as department and company business goals. Employees are encouraged to challenge themselves and each other to exhibit the core values in everyday activities.

Our employees also are given avenues of communication and interaction should they observe activities that are inconsistent with the Company’s core values. Encouraged first to speak openly about any issues, a hotline provides an opportunity to express concerns anonymously.

We consider the foundational value of integrity to be a non-negotiable requirement of employment, and an expectation of suppliers, partners, and our customers. We guard our reputation and will take aggressive action to protect it. An essential part of our brand promise is that we always engage with employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and investors with integrity.

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive marketplace. There are other companies that provide solutions similar to ours. Although these companies provide offerings that overlap with some of our solutions, we are not aware of any single company that provides competitive solutions in all of the areas where we compete. The companies that our solution areas compete with range from integrators that provide products and services such as Booz Allen Hamilton, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, SAIC and Daon, to more software-specific organizations such as Agiliance and RSA Archer.

The majority of our business is in response to competitive requests from potential and current customers. Decisions regarding contract awards by our customers typically are based upon an assessment of the quality of our past performance, responsiveness to proposal requirements, uniqueness of the offering itself, price, and other competitive factors.

Aside from other companies that compete in our space, we sometimes face indirect competition from solutions that are developed “in-house” by some of our customers.

Government Contracts and Regulation

Our business is heavily regulated. We must comply with and are affected by laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of U.S. Government and other contracts. These laws and regulations, among other things:

· impose specific and unique cost accounting practices that may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and therefore require reconciliation;

· impose acquisition regulations that define reimbursable and non-reimbursable costs; and

· restrict the use and dissemination of information classified for national security purposes and the export of certain products and technical data.

Government contracts are subject to congressional funding. Consequently, at the outset of a program, a contract is usually partially funded, and Congress annually determines if additional funds are to be appropriated to the contract. All of our customers have the right to terminate their contract with us at their convenience or in the event that we default.

A portion of our business is classified by the U.S. Government and cannot be specifically described. The operating results of these classified programs are included in our consolidated financial statements.

Backlog

Many of our contracts with the U.S. Government are funded year to year by the procuring U.S. Government agency as determined by the fiscal requirements of the U.S. Government and the respective procuring agency. Such a contracting process results in two distinct categories of backlog: funded and unfunded. Total backlog consists of the aggregate contract revenues remaining to be earned by us at a given time over the life of our contracts, whether funded or not. Funded backlog consists of the aggregate contract revenues remaining to be earned by us at a given time, but only to the extent, in the case of U.S. Government contracts, when funded by the procuring U.S. Government agency and allotted to the specific contracts. Unfunded backlog is the difference between total backlog and funded backlog. Included in unfunded backlog are revenues which may be earned only when and if customers exercise delivery orders and/or renewal options to continue such existing contracts.

A number of contracts that we undertake extend beyond one year, and accordingly portions of contracts are carried forward from one year to the next as part of the backlog. Because many factors affect the scheduling and continuation of projects, no assurance can be given as to when revenue will be realized on projects included in our backlog.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had total backlog from existing contracts of approximately $581.3 million and $609.6 million, respectively. Such amounts are the maximum possible value of additional future orders for systems, products, maintenance and other support services presently allowable under those contracts, including renewal options available on the contracts if fully exercised by the customer.

Funded backlog as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $99.1 million and $124.2 million, respectively.

While backlog remains a measurement consideration, in recent years we, as well as other U.S. Government contractors, experienced a material change in the manner in which the U.S. Government procures equipment and services. These procurement changes include the growth in the use of General Services Administration ("GSA") schedules which authorize agencies of the U.S. Government to purchase significant amounts of equipment and services. The use of the GSA schedules results in a significantly shorter and much more flexible procurement cycle, as well as increased competition with many companies holding such schedules. Along with the GSA schedules, the U.S. Government is awarding a large number of omnibus contracts with multiple awardees. Such contracts generally require extensive marketing efforts by the multiple awardees to procure such business. The use of GSA schedules and omnibus contracts, while generally not providing immediate backlog, provide areas of growth that we continue to aggressively pursue.

Seasonality

We derive substantially all of our revenue from U.S. Government contracting, and as such we are annually subject to the seasonality of the U.S. Government purchasing. As the U.S. Government fiscal year ends on September 30, it is not uncommon for U.S. Government agencies to award extra tasks in the weeks immediately prior to the end of its fiscal year in order to avoid the loss of unexpended fiscal year funds. As a result of this cyclicality, we have historically experienced higher revenues in the third and fourth fiscal quarters, ending September 30, and December 31, respectively, with the pace of orders substantially reduced during the first and second fiscal quarters ending March 31 and June 30, respectively.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

In addition to other information in this Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating the Company and its businesses because these factors currently have, or may have, a significant impact on our business, operating results or financial condition. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K as a result of the risk factors discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Our inability to maintain sufficient availability on our revolving credit facility or sufficient access to capital markets to replace that facility would have a significant impact on our business.

We maintain a revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. Borrowings under the Facility are collateralized by substantially all of our assets including inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. The amount of available borrowings fluctuates based on the underlying asset-borrowing base, in general 85% of our trade accounts receivable, as adjusted by certain reserves (as further defined in the Facility agreement). The Facility provides us with virtually all of the liquidity we require to meet our operating, investing and financing needs. Therefore maintaining sufficient availability on the Facility is the most critical factor in our liquidity. While a variety of factors related to sources and uses of cash, such as timeliness of accounts receivable collections, vendor credit terms, or significant collateral requirements, ultimately impact our liquidity, such factors may or may not have a direct impact on our liquidity, based on how the transactions associated with such circumstances impact our availability under the Facility. For example, a contractual requirement to post collateral for a duration of several months, depending on the materiality of the amount, could have an immediate negative effect on our liquidity, as such a circumstance would utilize availability on the Facility without a near-term cash inflow back to us. Likewise, the release of such collateral could have a corresponding positive effect on our liquidity, as it would represent an addition to our availability without any corresponding near-term cash outflow. Similarly, a slow-down of payments from a customer, group of customers or government payment office would not have an immediate and direct effect on our availability on the Facility unless the slow-down was material in amount and occurred over an extended period of time. Any of the examples described above could have an impact on the Facility, and therefore our liquidity.

We depend on the U.S. Government for a significant portion of our sales and a significant decline in U.S. Government defense spending could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our sales are highly concentrated with the U.S. Government. The customer relationship with the U.S. Government involves certain risks that are unique. The programs in which we participate must compete with other programs and policy imperatives during the budget and appropriations process. In each of the past three years, substantially all of our net sales were to the U.S. Government, particularly the Department of Defence (“DoD”). U.S. defense spending has historically been cyclical. Defense budgets have received their strongest support when perceived threats to national security raise the level of concern over the country’s safety. As these threats subside, spending on the military tends to decrease. Rising budget deficits, increasing national debt, the cost of the global war on terrorism, and increasing costs for domestic programs continue to put pressure on all areas of discretionary spending, which could ultimately impact the defense budget. A decrease in U.S. Government defense spending or changes in spending allocation could result in one or more of our programs being reduced, delayed or terminated.

The ongoing congressional budget negotiation and implementation of the March 1, 2013 budget sequester have produced significant uncertainty with respect to future government programs and funding.

Uncertainty among our government customer organizations over the timing and implementation of the sequestration of appropriations in government fiscal year 2013 imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011 (Budget Act) are likely to produce delays in awards of future contracts. While we understand customers have started to plan for sequestration, the specific effects of sequestration are not yet available and cannot be determined by us. The automatic across-the-board cuts from sequestration would approximately double the amount of the ten-year $487 billion reduction in defense spending that began in government fiscal year 2012 already required by the Budget Act. As described above, a significant decrease in U.S. Government defense spending or changes in spending allocation as a result of the budget sequester may likely result in one or more of our programs being reduced, delayed or terminated. Such reductions in our existing programs may adversely affect our ability to sustain and grow our future sales and earnings.

Table of Contents

U.S. Government contracts generally are not fully funded at inception and are subject to amendment or termination, which places a significant portion of our revenues at risk and could adversely impact our earnings.

Our U.S. Government sales are funded by customer budgets, which operate on an October-to-September fiscal year. In February of each year, the President of the United States presents to the Congress the budget for the upcoming fiscal year. This budget proposes funding levels for every federal agency and is the result of months of policy and program reviews throughout the Executive branch. From February through September of each year, the appropriations and authorization committees of Congress review the President’s budget proposals and establish the funding levels for the upcoming fiscal year in appropriations and authorization legislation. Once these levels are enacted into law, the Executive Office of the President administers the funds to the agencies. There are two primary risks associated with this process. First, the process may be delayed or disrupted. Changes in congressional schedules, negotiations for program funding levels or unforeseen world events can interrupt the funding for a program or contract. Second, funds for multi-year contracts can be changed in subsequent years in the appropriations process. In addition, the U.S. Government has increasingly relied on indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (“IDIQ”) contracts and other procurement vehicles that are subject to a competitive bidding and funding process even after the award of the basic contract, adding an additional element of uncertainty to future funding levels. Delays in the funding process or changes in funding can impact the timing of available funds or can lead to changes in program content or termination at the government’s convenience. The loss of anticipated funding or the termination of multiple or large programs could have an adverse effect on our future sales and earnings.

We are subject to substantial oversight from federal agencies that have the authority to suspend our ability to bid on contracts.

As a U.S. Government contractor, we are subject to oversight by many agencies and entities of the U.S. Government that may investigate and make inquiries of our business practices and conduct audits of contract performance and cost accounting. Depending on the results of any such audits and investigations, the U.S. Government may make claims against us. Under U.S. Government procurement regulations and practices, an indictment of a U.S. Government contractor could result in that contractor being fined and/or suspended for a period of time from eligibility for bidding on, or for the award of, new U.S. Government contracts. A conviction could result in debarment for a specified period of time. To the best of management’s knowledge, there are no pending investigations, inquiries, claims or audits against the Company likely to have a material adverse effect on our business or our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

We depend on third parties in order to fully perform under our contracts and the failure of a third party to perform could have an adverse impact on our earnings.

We rely on subcontractors and other companies to provide raw materials, major components and subsystems for our products or to perform a portion of the services that we provide to our customers. Occasionally, we rely on only one or two sources of supply, which, if disrupted, could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet our commitments to customers. We depend on these subcontractors and vendors to fulfill their contractual obligations in a timely and satisfactory manner in full compliance with customer requirements. If one or more of our subcontractors or suppliers is unable to satisfactorily provide on a timely basis the agreed-upon supplies or perform the agreed-upon services, our ability to perform our obligations as a prime contractor may be adversely affected.

Our future profitability depends, in part, on our ability to develop new technologies and maintain a qualified workforce to meet the needs of our customers.

Virtually all of the products that we produce and sell are highly engineered and require sophisticated manufacturing and system integration techniques and capabilities. The government market in which we primarily operate is characterized by rapidly changing technologies. The product and program needs of our government and commercial customers change and evolve regularly. Accordingly, our future performance in part depends on our ability to identify emerging technological trends, develop and manufacture competitive products, and bring those products to market quickly at cost-effective prices. In addition, because of the highly specialized nature of our business, we must be able to hire and retain the skilled and appropriately qualified personnel necessary to perform the services required by our customers. If we are unable to develop new products that meet customers’ changing needs or successfully attract and retain qualified personnel, future sales and earnings may be adversely affected.

The business environment in which we operate is highly competitive and may impair our ability to achieve revenue growth.

We operate in industry segments that are diverse. Based upon our current market analysis, there is no single company or small group of companies in a dominant competitive position. Some large competitors offer capabilities in a number of markets that overlap many of the same areas in which we offer services, while certain companies are focused upon only one or a few of such markets. Some of the firms that compete with us in multiple areas include: Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics. In addition, we compete with smaller specialty companies, including risk and compliance management companies, organizational messaging companies, and security consulting organizations, and companies that provide secure network offerings. If we do not compete effectively, we may suffer price reductions, reduced gross margins, and loss of market share.

Some of our security solutions have lengthy sales and implementation cycles, which could impact significantly our results of operations if projected orders are not realized.

We market the majority of our security solutions directly to U.S. Government customers. The sale and implementation of our services to these entities typically involves a lengthy education process and a significant technical evaluation and commitment of capital and other resources. This process is also subject to the risk of delays associated with customers’ internal budgeting and other procedures for approving large capital expenditures, deploying new technologies within their networks and testing and accepting new technologies that affect key operations. As a result, the sales and implementation cycles associated with certain of our services can be lengthy. Our quarterly and annual operating results could be materially harmed if orders forecasted for a specific customer for a particular quarter are not realized.

Our business could be negatively affected by cyber or other security threats or other disruptions.

As a U.S. defense contractor, we face cyber threats, threats to the physical security of our facilities and employees, and terrorist acts, as well as the potential for business disruptions associated with information technology failures, natural disasters, or public health crises. We routinely experience cyber security threats, threats to our information technology infrastructure and attempts to gain access to our company sensitive information, as do our customers, suppliers, subcontractors and joint venture partners. We may experience similar security threats at customer sites that we operate and manage as a contractual requirement. Prior cyber attacks directed at us have not had a material impact on our financial results, and we believe our threat detection and mitigation processes and procedures are adequate. The threats we face vary from attacks common to most industries to more advanced and persistent, highly organized adversaries who target us because we protect national security information. If we are unable to protect sensitive information, our customers or governmental authorities could question the adequacy of our threat mitigation and detection processes and procedures. Due to the evolving nature of these security threats, however, the impact of any future incident cannot be predicted. Occurrence of any of these events could adversely affect our internal operations, the services we provide to our customers, loss of competitive advantages derived from our research and development efforts or other intellectual property, early obsolescence of our products and services, our future financial results, or our reputation.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our revenues may be impacted adversely by the unauthorized use of our products and services.

Our success depends on our internally developed technologies, patents and other intellectual property. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our trade secrets or other forms of intellectual property without authorization. Furthermore, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our proprietary rights in those countries to the same extent U.S. law protects these rights in the United States. In addition, it is possible that others may independently develop substantially equivalent intellectual property. If we do not effectively protect our intellectual property, our business could suffer. In the future, we may have to resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. This type of litigation, regardless of its outcome, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and technical resources.

If we are unable to license third-party technology that is used in our products and services to perform key functions, the loss could have an adverse affect on our revenues.

The third-party technology licenses used by us may not continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Our business could suffer if we lost the rights to use these technologies. A third-party could claim that the licensed software infringes a patent or other proprietary right. Litigation between the licensor and a third-party or between us and a third-party could lead to royalty obligations for which we are not indemnified or for which indemnification is insufficient, or we may not be able to obtain any additional license on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The loss of, or our inability to obtain or maintain, any of these technology licenses could delay the introduction of new products or services until equivalent technology, if available, is identified, licensed and integrated. This could harm our business.

We are involved in a number of legal proceedings. We cannot predict the outcome of litigation and other contingencies with certainty.

Our business may be adversely affected by the outcome of legal proceedings and other contingencies that cannot be predicted with certainty. As required by GAAP, we estimate loss contingencies and establish reserves based on our assessment of contingencies where liability is deemed probable and reasonably estimable in light of the facts and circumstances known to us at a particular point in time. Subsequent developments in legal proceedings may affect our assessment and estimates of the loss contingency recorded as a liability or as a reserve against assets in our financial statements. For a description of our current legal proceedings, see Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies to the consolidated financial statements.

Any potential future acquisitions, strategic investments, divestitures, mergers or joint ventures may subject us to significant risks, any of which could harm our business.

Our long-term strategy may include identifying and acquiring, investing in or merging with suitable candidates on acceptable terms, or divesting of certain business lines or activities. In particular, over time, we may acquire, make investments in, or merge with providers of product offerings that complement our business or may terminate such activities. Mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures include a number of risks and present financial, managerial and operational challenges, including but not limited to:

diversion of management attention from running our existing business;

possible material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting;

increased expenses including legal, administrative and compensation expenses related to newly hired or terminated employees;

increased costs to integrate the technology, personnel, customer base and business practices of the acquired company with us;

potential exposure to material liabilities not discovered in the due diligence process;

potential adverse effects on reported operating results due to possible write-down of goodwill and other intangible assets associated with acquisitions; and

unavailability of acquisition financing or unavailability of such financing on reasonable terms.

Any acquired business, technology, service or product could significantly under-perform relative to our expectations, and may not achieve the benefits we expect from possible acquisitions. For all these reasons, our pursuit of an acquisition, investment, divestiture, merger, or joint venture could cause its actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

Our goal is to deliver superior IT solutions that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations. We focus on secure enterprise solutions that address the unique requirements of the federal government, the military, and the intelligence community, as well as commercial enterprises that require secure solutions. Our IT solutions consist of the following:

Cyber Operations and Defense (formerly Secure Networks and Information Assurance) – Secure wired and wireless network solutions for Department of Defense (“DoD”) and other federal agencies. We provide an extensive range of wired and wireless voice, data, and video secure network solutions and mobile application development to support defense and civilian missions. In July 2011, we acquired all of the assets of IT Logistics, Inc. (“ITL”) and incorporated such assets into our Secure Networks business solutions. Our software products and consulting services automate, streamline, and enforce IT security and risk management processes enterprise-wide. We offer information assurance consulting services and Xacta brand GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) solutions to protect and defend IT systems, ensuring their availability, integrity, authentication, and confidentiality.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, allowance for inventory obsolescence, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, contingencies and litigation, and assumptions used in evaluating potential impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, estimated pension-related costs for our foreign subsidiaries and accretion of Public Preferred Stock. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The following is a summary of the most critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 605-10-S99. We consider amounts earned upon evidence that an arrangement has been obtained, services are delivered, fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Additionally, revenues on arrangements requiring the delivery of more than one product or service are recognized in accordance with ASC 605-25, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” which addresses and requires the separation and allocation at the inception of the arrangement of all deliverables based on their relative selling prices. This determination is made first by employing vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), to the extent it exists, then third-party evidence (“TPE”) of selling price, to the extent that it exists. Given the nature of the deliverables contained in our multi-element arrangements, which often involve the design and/or delivery of complex or technical solutions to the government, we have not obtained TPE of selling prices on multi-element arrangements due to the significant differentiation which makes obtaining comparable pricing of products with similar functionality impractical. Therefore we do not utilize TPE. If VSOE and TPE are not determinable, we use our best estimate of selling price (“ESP”) as defined in ASC 605-25, which represents our best estimate of the prices under the terms and conditions of a particular order for the various elements if they were sold on a stand-alone basis.

We recognize revenues for software arrangements upon persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery of the software, and determination that collection of a fixed or determinable license fee is probable. Revenues for software licenses sold on a subscription basis are recognized ratably over the related license period. For arrangements where the sale of software licenses are bundled with other products, including software products, upgrades and enhancements, post-contract customer support (“PCS”), and installation, the relative fair value of each element is determined based on VSOE. VSOE is defined by ASC 985-605, “Software Revenue Recognition,” and is limited to the price charged when the element is sold separately or, if the element is not yet sold separately, the price set by management having the relevant authority. When VSOE exists for undelivered elements, the remaining consideration is allocated to delivered elements using the residual method. If VSOE does not exist for the allocation of revenue to the various elements of the arrangement, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until the earlier of the point at which (1) such VSOE does exist or (2) all elements of the arrangement are delivered. PCS revenues, upon being unbundled from a software license fee, are recognized ratably over the PCS period. Software arrangements requiring significant production, modification, or customization of the software are accounted for in accordance with ASC 605-35 “Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”.

We may use subcontractors and suppliers in the course of performing on contracts and under certain contracts we provide supplier procurement services and materials for our customers. Some of these arrangements may fall within the scope of ASC 605-45, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.” We presume that revenues on our contracts are recognized on a gross basis, as we generally provide significant value-added services, assume credit risk, and reserve the right to select subcontractors and suppliers, but we evaluate the various criteria specified in the guidance in making the determination of whether revenue should be recognized on a gross or net basis.

A description of the business lines, the typical deliverables, and the revenue recognition criteria in general for such deliverables follows:

Cyber Operations and Defense (formerly Secure Networks and Information Assurance):

In the first quarter of 2012, our Secure Networks and Information Assurance solutions areas were merged.

Regarding our deliverables of secure network solutions, we provide wireless and wired networking solutions consisting of hardware and services to our customers. Also, within our Cyber Operations and Defense solutions area is our Emerging Technologies Group creating innovative, custom-tailored solutions for government and commercial enterprises. The solutions within the Cyber Operations and Defense and Emerging Technologies groups are generally sold as firm-fixed price (“FFP”) bundled solutions. Certain of these networking solutions involve contracts to design, develop, or modify complex electronic equipment configurations to a buyer's specification or to provide network engineering services, and as such fall within the scope of ASC 605-35. Revenue is earned upon percentage of completion based upon proportional performance, such performance generally being defined by performance milestones. Certain other solutions fall within the scope of ASC 605-10-S99, such as resold information technology products, like laptops, printers, networking equipment and peripherals, and ASC 605-25, such as delivery orders for multiple solutions deliverables. For product sales, revenue is recognized upon proof of acceptance by the customer, otherwise it is deferred until such time as the proof of acceptance is obtained. For example, in delivery orders for Department of Defense customers, which comprise the majority of the Company’s customers, such acceptance is achieved with a signed Department of Defense Form DD-250 or electronic invoicing system equivalent. Services provided under these contracts are generally provided on a FFP basis, and as such fall within the scope of ASC 605-10-S99. Revenue for services is recognized based on proportional performance, as the work progresses. FFP services may be billed to the customer on a percentage-of-completion basis or based upon milestones, which may approximate the proportional performance of the services under the agreements, as specified in such agreements. To the extent that customer billings exceed the performance of the specified services, the revenue would be deferred. Revenue is recognized under time-and-materials (“T&M”) services contracts based upon specified billing rates and other direct costs as incurred.

Regarding our information assurance deliverables, we provide Xacta IA Manager software and cybersecurity services to our customers. The software and accompanying services fall within the scope of ASC 985-605, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as fully discussed above. We provide consulting services to our customers under either a FFP or T&M basis. Such contracts fall under the scope of ASC 605-10-S99. Revenue for FFP services is recognized on a proportional performance basis. FFP services may be billed to the customer on a percentage-of-completion basis or based upon milestones as appropriate under a particular contract, which may approximate the proportional performance of the services under the agreements, as specified in such agreements. To the extent that customer billings exceed the performance of the specified services, the revenue would be deferred. Revenue is recognized under T&M contracts based upon specified billing rates and other direct costs as incurred. For cost plus fixed fee (“CPFF”) contracts, revenue is recognized in proportion to the allowable costs incurred unless indicated otherwise in the terms of the contract.

Secure Communications (formerly Secure Messaging) – We provide Secure Information eXchange (T-6) suite of products which include the flagship product the Automated Message Handling System (“AMHS”), Secure Collaboration, Secure Discovery, Secure Directory and Cross Domain Communication, as well as related services to our customers. The system and accompanying services fall within the scope of ASC 985-605, as fully discussed above. Other services fall within the scope of ASC 605-10-S99 for arrangements that include only T&M contracts and ASC 605-25 for contracts with multiple deliverables such as T&M elements and FFP services. Under such arrangements, the T&M elements are established by direct costs. Revenue is recognized on T&M contracts according to specified rates as direct labor and other direct costs are incurred. For cost plus fixed fee (“CPFF”) contracts, revenue is recognized in proportion to the allowable costs incurred unless indicated otherwise in the terms of the contract. Revenue for FFP services is recognized on a proportional performance basis. FFP services may be billed to the customer on a percentage-of-completion basis or based upon milestones, which may approximate the proportional performance of the services under the agreements, as specified in such agreements. To the extent that customer billings exceed the performance of the specified services, the revenue would be deferred.

Telos ID (formerly Identity Management) – We provide our identity assurance and access management solutions and services and sell information technology products, such as computer laptops and specialized printers, and consumables, such as identity cards, to our customers. The solutions are generally sold as FFP bundled solutions, which would typically fall within the scope of ASC 605-25 and ASC 605-10-S99. Revenue for services is recognized based on proportional performance, as the work progresses. FFP services may be billed to the customer on a percentage-of-completion basis or based upon milestones, which may approximate the proportional performance of the services under the agreements, as specified in such agreements. To the extent that customer billings exceed the performance of the specified services, the revenue would be deferred. Revenue is recognized under T&M contracts based upon specified billing rates and other direct costs as incurred.

Estimating future costs and, therefore, revenues and profits, is a process requiring a high degree of management judgment. In the event of a change in total estimated contract cost or profit, the cumulative effect of a change is recorded in the period the change in estimate occurs. To the extent contracts are incomplete at the end of an accounting period, revenue is recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, on a proportional performance basis, using costs incurred in relation to total estimated costs, or costs are deferred as appropriate under the terms of a particular contract. In the event cost estimates indicate a loss on a contract, the total amount of such loss, excluding overhead and general and administrative expense, is recorded in the period in which the loss is first estimated.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, where cost is determined primarily on the weighted average cost method. Inventories consist primarily of purchased customer off-the-shelf hardware and software, and component computer parts used in connection with system integration services that we perform. Inventories also include spare parts utilized to support certain maintenance contracts. Spare parts inventory is amortized on a straight-line basis over two to five years, which represents the shorter of the warranty period or estimated useful life of the asset. An allowance for obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory is provided for all other inventory. This allowance is based on our overall obsolescence experience and our assessment of future inventory requirements.

Goodwill and other intangible assets

We evaluate the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” which requires goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets to be assessed on at least an annual basis for impairment using a fair value basis. Between annual evaluations, if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount, then impairment must be evaluated. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate, or (2) a loss of key contracts or customers.

As the result of an acquisition, we record any excess purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired as goodwill. An allocation of the purchase price to tangible and intangible net assets acquired is based upon our valuation of the acquired assets. Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to annual impairment tests. We complete our goodwill impairment tests as of October 1st each year. Additionally, we make evaluations between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The evaluation is based on the estimation of the fair values of our three reporting units, Cyber Operations and Defense (“CO&D”), Secure Communications, and Telos ID, of which goodwill is housed in the CO&D reporting unit, in comparison to the reporting unit’s net asset carrying values. Our discounted cash flows required management judgment with respect to forecasted revenue streams and operating margins, capital expenditures and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. We utilized the weighted average cost of capital as derived by certain assumptions specific to our facts and circumstances as the discount rate. The net assets attributable to the reporting units are determined based upon the estimated assets and liabilities attributable to the reporting units in deriving its free cash flows. In addition, the estimate of the total fair value of our reporting units is compared to the market capitalization of the Company. The Company’s assessment resulted in a fair value that was greater than the Company’s carrying value, therefore the second step of the impairment test, as prescribed by the authoritative literature, was not required to be performed and no impairment of goodwill was recorded as of December 31, 2012. Subsequent reviews may result in future periodic impairments that could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations in the period recognized. We estimate fair value of our reporting unit and compare the valuation with the respective carrying value for the reporting unit to determine whether any goodwill impairment exists. If we determine through the impairment review process that goodwill is impaired, we will record an impairment charge in our consolidated statements of operations. Goodwill is amortized and deducted over a 15-year period for tax purposes.

To date intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationship enhancements. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. Intangible assets are subject to impairment review if there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. As of December 31, 2012, no impairment charges were taken.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of temporary differences and income tax credits. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates that are applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized for differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Any change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in net income in the period in which the tax rate change is enacted. We record a valuation allowance that reduces deferred tax assets when it is "more likely than not" that deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Results of Operations

We derive substantially all of our revenues from contracts and subcontracts with the U.S. Government. Our revenues are generated from a number of contract vehicles and task orders. Over the past several years we have sought to diversify and improve our operating margins through an evolution of our business from an emphasis on product reselling to that of an advanced solutions technologies provider. To that end, although we continue to offer resold products through our contract vehicles, we have focused on selling solutions and outsourcing product sales, as well as designing and delivering Telos manufactured and branded technologies. We believe our contract portfolio is characterized as having low to moderate financial risk due to the limited number of long-term fixed price development contracts. Our firm fixed-price activities consist principally of contracts for the products and services at established contract prices. Our time-and-material contracts generally allow the pass-through of allowable costs plus a profit margin. For 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Company’s revenue derived from firm fixed-price was 82.7%, 88.8%, and 82.8%, respectively, and time-and-material contracts was 17.3%, 11.2%, and 17.2%, respectively.

We provide different solutions and are party to contracts of varying revenue types under the NETCENTS (Network-Centric Solutions) contract to the U.S. Air Force. NETCENTS is a GWAC-like IDIQ contract, therefore any government customer may utilize the NETCENTS vehicle to meet its purchasing needs. Consequently, revenue earned on the underlying NETCENTS delivery orders varies from period to period according to the customer and solution mix for the products and services delivered during a particular period, unlike a standalone contract with one separately identified customer. The majority of our task/delivery orders have periods of performance of less than 12 months, which contributes to the variances between interim and annual reporting periods. The NETCENTS contract was awarded in 2004 and has been modified 38 times since that time, including numerous modifications to extend the period of performance. The contract itself does not fund any orders and it states that the contract is for an indefinite delivery and indefinite quantity. While we derive a substantial amount of revenue from task/delivery orders under the NETCENTS contract, we have also been awarded other IDIQ/GWACs, including blanket purchase agreements under our GSA schedule.

Revenue. Revenue increased by 19.1% to $226.1 million for 2012 from $189.9 million for 2011. Such increase is primarily attributable to increased sales from the U.S. Air Force NETCENTS contract. Services revenue increased by 41.8% to $177.3 million for 2012 from $125.0 million for 2011, primarily attributable to increases in sales of $43.9 million of Cyber Operations and Defense network solutions deliverables under several NETCENTS delivery orders for Telos-installed solutions, $8.0 million of Cyber Operations and Defense information assurance deliverables, $2.5 million of Identity Management solutions, offset by a decrease in sales of $2.1 million of Secure Communications solutions. The change in product and services revenue varies from period to period depending on the mix of solutions sold and the nature of such solutions, as well as the timing of deliverables. Product revenue for 2012 decreased by 24.8% to $48.8 million from $64.9 million for 2011, primarily attributable to decreases in sales of $10.4 million of Cyber Operations and Defense network solutions deliverables, $5.6 million of Identity Management solutions, $0.2 million of Secure Communications solutions, offset by an increase in sales of $0.1 million of Cyber Operations and Defense information assurance deliverables.

Revenue decreased by 15.9% to $189.9 million for 2011 from $225.8 million for 2010. Such decrease is primarily attributable to decreased sales from the U.S. Air Force NETCENTS and U.S. Army ADMC-2 contracts. Services revenue increased by 1.7% to $125.0 million for 2011 from $122.9 million for 2010, primarily attributable to increases in revenue of $8.9 million Cyber Operations and Defense network solutions deliverables under several NETCENTS delivery orders for Telos-installed solutions, including an increase of $2.1 million in net agency revenue which is a direct result of continued emphasis on selling solutions and services while outsourcing product sales, $0.3 million of Secure Communications solutions, offset by decreases in sales of $6.8 million of Cyber Operations and Defense information assurance deliverables, and $0.3 million of Identity Management solutions. Product revenue for 2011 decreased by 36.9% to $64.9 million from $102.9 million for 2010, attributable to a decrease in sales of $43.1 million of Cyber Operations and Defense network solutions deliverables primarily due to a continued emphasis on selling solutions and services while outsourcing product sales in keeping with our focus as described above, and a decrease in sales of Telos manufactured technology solutions, as well as decreases in sales of $2.1 million of Cyber Operations and Defense information assurance deliverables, and $1.1 million of Secure Communications solutions, offset by an increase in sales of Identity Management solutions of $8.3 million.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased by 20.3% to $171.3 million for 2012 from $142.3 million for 2011 as a result of increases in revenue. Cost of sales for services increased by $40.6 million; and as a percentage of services revenue increased by 1.3%, due to a change in the mix and nature of the programs including an increase in certain Telos-installed solutions in Cyber Operations and Defense network solutions deliverables under NETCENTS. Cost of sales for product decreased by $11.6 million, and as a percentage of product revenue increased by 2.1%, primarily due to decreases in product revenue for Telos-manufactured technology solutions under NETCENTS. The increase in cost of sales is not necessarily indicative of a trend as the mix of solutions sold and the nature of such solutions can vary from period to period, and further can be affected by the timing of deliverables.

Cost of sales decreased by 20.3% to $142.3 million for 2011 from $178.5 million for 2010 as a result of decreases in revenue, primarily product revenue from Telos manufactured technology solutions and resold products under NETCENTS and ADMC-2. This was a direct result of continued emphasis on selling solutions and services while outsourcing product sales.

Gross profit. Gross profit increased by 15.3% to $54.8 million for 2012 from $47.5 million for 2011. Gross margin decreased 0.9% to 24.2% for 2012 from 25.1% for 2011, due to various changes in the mix of contracts in all business lines, primarily solutions delivery in the Cyber Operations and Defense business line and continued emphasis on selling solutions while outsourcing product sales.

Gross profit increased by 0.6% to $47.6 million for 2011 from $47.3 million for 2010. Gross margin increased 4.2% to 25.1% for 2011 from 20.9% for 2010, due to various changes in the mix of contracts in all business lines, primarily solutions delivery in Cyber Operations and Defense business line and continued emphasis on selling solutions while outsourcing product sales.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 6.5% to $37.1 million for 2012 from $34.9 million for 2011. Such increase is primarily attributable to increases in legal fees of $2.0 million, amortization of intangible assets of $1.1 million, offset by decreases in bonuses of $0.6 million, and trade shows expenses of $0.3 million.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 7.9% to $34.9 million for 2011 from $32.3 million for 2010. Such increase is primarily attributable to increases in the amortization of intangible assets of $1.1 million, bonuses of $0.6 million, labor and other costs of $0.4 million, and consulting fees of $0.5 million.

Interest expense. Interest expenses increased 5.9% to $6.6 million for 2012 from $6.3 million for 2011, primarily due to an increase in interest expense due to accretion on notes payable to ITL as a result of the ITL acquisition, offset by a reduction of interest expense due to the partial redemption of the senior redeemable preferred stock.

Interest expenses increased 0.6% to $6.3 million for 2011 from $6.2 million for 2010, primarily due to an increase in interest expense due to accretion on notes payable to ITL as a result of the ITL acquisition, offset by a reduction of interest expense due to the partial redemption of the senior redeemable preferred stock and the pay off of the subordinated debt in May 2010. Components of interest expense are as follows:

	December 31,
	2012		2011		2010
	(amounts in thousands)
Commercial and subordinated note interest incurred	$	1,786	$	1,745	$	1,987
Preferred stock interest accrued		4,051		4,159		4,241
ITL note accretion		795		361		----
Total	$	6,632	$	6,265	$	6,228

Provision for income taxes. Provision for income taxes increased to $7.2 million for 2012 from $3.2 million for 2011, primarily due to an increase in pretax income, and changes in book and tax basis of goodwill due to the early extinguishment of the ITL Note. Provision for income taxes decreased to $3.2 million for 2011 from $4.7 million for 2010, primarily due to a decrease in pretax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As described in more detail below, we maintain a revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. (“Wells Fargo”) which was formerly Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. Borrowings under the Facility are collateralized by substantially all of our assets including inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. The amount of available borrowings fluctuates based on the underlying asset-borrowing base, in general 85% of our trade accounts receivable, as adjusted by certain reserves (as further defined in the Facility agreement). The Facility provides us with virtually all of the liquidity we require to meet our operating, investing and financing needs. Therefore maintaining sufficient availability on the Facility is the most critical factor in our liquidity. While a variety of factors related to sources and uses of cash, such as timeliness of accounts receivable collections, vendor credit terms, or significant collateral requirements, ultimately impact our liquidity, such factors may or may not have a direct impact on our liquidity, based on how the transactions associated with such circumstances impact our availability under the Facility. For example, a contractual requirement to post collateral for a duration of several months, depending on the materiality of the amount, could have an immediate negative effect on our liquidity, as such a circumstance would utilize availability on the Facility without a near-term cash inflow back to us. Likewise, the release of such collateral could have a corresponding positive effect on our liquidity, as it would represent an addition to our availability without any corresponding near-term cash outflow. Similarly, a slow-down of payments from a customer, group of customers or government payment office would not have an immediate and direct effect on our availability on the Facility unless the slowdown was material in amount and over an extended period of time. Any of these examples would have an impact on the Facility, and therefore our liquidity. Management believes that the Company’s borrowing capacity is sufficient to fund our capital and liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

Cash provided by operating activities was $16.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $14.9 million for 2011. Cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by our operating income, the timing of receipt of customer payments, the timing of payments to vendors and employees, and the timing of inventory turnover, adjusted for certain non cash items that do not impact cash flows from operating activities. In 2012, net income was $11.1 million, which included $5.2 million gain from early extinguishment of the ITL note, and $2.3 million of amortization of intangible assets resulting from the ITL acquisition. In 2011, net income was $3.5 million, which primarily included $1.1 million of amortization of intangible assets resulting from the ITL acquisition. In 2010, net income was $4.2 million, which included $1.5 million of deferred income tax provision primarily resulting from the realization of alternative minimum tax credit.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $0.6 million, which consisted of the purchases of property and equipment. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $8.6 million, which primarily consisted of the $8.0 million initial payment for the acquisition of ITL, and the purchase of $0.6 million of property and equipment. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $0.7 million, which consisted of the purchases of property and equipment.

Cash used in financing activities for year ended December 31, 2012 was $15.5 million, compared to $6.2 million for 2011, and $2.4 million for 2010. The financing activities in 2012 consisted primarily of net proceeds of $2.7 million from the Facility, payment of $10.9 million of ITL notes, redemption of $4.0 million of senior preferred stock, repayments of $0.9 million under capital leases, repayments of a $0.4 million of term loan, and distributions of $2.0 million to the Class B Member of Telos ID. The financing activities in 2011 consisted primarily of net proceeds of $2.8 million from the Facility, payment of $3.5 million of ITL notes, repayments of $0.9 million under capital leases, repayments of a $0.4 million of term loan, distributions of $2.1 million to the Class B Member of Telos ID, and redemption of $2.1 million of senior preferred stock. The financing activities in 2010 consisted primarily of net proceeds of $7.3 million from a term loan, payment of $4.2 million of senior subordinated notes, net repayments of $3.1 million to the Facility, repayments of $0.8 million under capital leases, distributions of $1.1 million to the Class B Member of Telos ID, and redemption of $0.4 million of senior preferred stock.

Additionally, our capital structure consists of redeemable preferred stock and common stock. The capital structure is complex and requires an understanding of the terms of the instruments, certain restrictions on scheduled payments and redemptions of the various instruments, and the interrelationship of the instruments especially as it relates to the subordination hierarchy. Therefore a thorough understanding of how our capital structure impacts our liquidity is necessary and accordingly we have disclosed the relevant information about each instrument as follows:

Senior Revolving Credit Facility

On May 17, 2010, we amended our $25 million Facility with Wells Fargo. Under the amended terms, the maturity date of the Facility was extended to May 17, 2014 from September 30, 2011, the limit on the Facility was increased to $30 million from $25 million, and a term loan component of $7.5 million was added to the Facility. The principal of the term loan component will be repaid in quarterly installments of $93,750, with a final installment of the unpaid principal amount payable on May 17, 2014. The interest rate on the term loan component is the same as that on the revolving credit component of the Facility, which was changed to the higher of the Wells Fargo Bank “prime rate” plus 1%, the Federal Funds rate plus 1.5%, or the 3-month LIBOR rate plus 2%. In lieu of having interest charged at the foregoing rates, the Company may elect to have the interest on all or a portion of the advances on the revolving credit component be a rate based on the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Facility) plus 3.75%. As of December 31, 2012, we have not elected the LIBOR Rate option. Borrowings under the Facility continue to be collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets including inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. The financial covenants were updated to include minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Facility), minimum recurring revenue and a limit on capital expenditures. The Facility’s anniversary fee was discontinued and the collateral management fee was reduced. Additionally, the Facility was amended to permit the full repayment of the entire principal amount of the Subordinated Notes (as defined below).

As of December 31, 2012, the interest rate on the Facility was 4.25%. We incurred interest expense in the amount of $0.8 million, $0.7 million, and $0.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, on the Facility.

In accordance with the stated use of proceeds for the term loan component of the Facility, $4.2 million was paid concurrent with the closing of the amendment to each of the holders of the Subordinated Notes (as defined below) in full repayment of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest on the Subordinated Notes through May 17, 2010.

On September 27, 2010, the Facility was amended to allow for the redemption of up to $2.5 million of the aggregate value of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock at a discount from par value of at least 10%. On September 27, 2010 and on April 8, 2011, a portion of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock was redeemed (see Note 8 – Redeemable Preferred Stock). Additionally, on May 11, 2012, the Facility was further amended to allow for the redemption of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, under certain conditions, at a discount from par value plus accrued dividends of at least 10%, at an aggregate price not to exceed $4.0 million. On May 16, 2012 and on August 24, 2012, a portion of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock was redeemed (see Note 8 – Redeemable Preferred Stock).

On December 17, 2012, Wells Fargo consented to the payment of approximately $7.6 million of the ITL note.

The Facility has various covenants that may, among other things, affect our ability to merge with another entity, sell or transfer certain assets, pay dividends and make other distributions beyond certain limitations. As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the Facility’s financial covenants, including EBITDA covenants. The term loan component of the Facility amortizes at 5% per year, or $0.4 million, which is paid in quarterly installments and is classified as current on the consolidated balance sheets. The remaining balance of the term loan, or $6.2 million, and the revolving component of the Facility mature over the period 2013 and 2014.

At December 31, 2012, we had outstanding borrowings of $18.9 million on the Facility, which included the $6.6 million term loan, of which $0.4 million was short-term. At December 31, 2011, the outstanding borrowings on the Facility were $17.9 million, which included the $6.9 million term loan, of which $0.4 million was short-term. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had unused borrowing availability on the Facility of $2.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively. The effective weighted average interest rates on the outstanding borrowings under the Facility were 5.6% and 6.3% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The effective weighted average interest rates (including various fees paid whether capitalized or expensed pursuant to the Facility agreement and related amendments) on the outstanding borrowings under the Facility were 5.8% and 6.6% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Notes payable – IT Logistics, Inc.

On July 1, 2011, we entered into, and concurrently completed the transactions contemplated by, the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with IT Logistics Inc., an Alabama Corporation (“ITL”), and its sole stockholder. The Agreement provides for the purchase of certain assets relating to the operation of ITL’s business of providing survey, design, engineering, and installation services of inside and outside plant secure networking infrastructure and program management expertise. Under the terms of the Agreement, Telos assumed certain liabilities of ITL, principally liabilities that accrue on or after July 1, 2011, under certain contracts assumed by Telos.

The purchase price for the assets (in addition to the assumed liabilities described above) consisted of (1) $8 million payable on July 1, 2011, (2) $7 million payable in ten monthly payments of $700,000, together with interest on the unpaid balance of such amount at the rate of 0.50% per annum, beginning on August 1, 2011 and on the first day of each subsequent month thereafter, and (3) a subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) with a principal amount of $15 million. The Note accrued interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum beginning November 1, 2012, and was payable on July 1, 2041. The entire unpaid principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest was due and payable upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the Note), provided that all “Senior Obligations” were satisfied prior to or concurrent with such Change in Control. For purposes of the Note, “Senior Obligations” means, collectively, all (1) outstanding indebtedness of Telos, and (2) amounts due to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, and 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Preferred Stock (or any securities redeemable or exchangeable for any of the foregoing) upon a Change in Control, upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of Telos, or otherwise.

On December 18, 2012, we prepaid and satisfied in full our obligations under the Note. As a condition to the prepayment of the Note, ITL accepted payment in the amount of $7.6 million, which is the sum of $7.5 million in principal plus $0.1 million in accrued interest. This amount represents a discount of 50% off of the principal amount of the Note. No penalties were due to ITL in connection with the prepayment of the Note. As a result of this transaction, a gain in the amount of $5.2 million was recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of operations. On or about December 17, 2012, ITL and Telos signed an agreement in which ITL agreed to accept the prepayment and discount in full satisfaction of the Note. Wells Fargo consented to the payment of approximately $7.6 million on December 17, 2012.

At December 31, 2012, the $7 million payable in ten monthly payments had also been fully paid. We incurred interest expense in the amount of $4,000 and $12,000 on the $7 million note in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Senior Subordinated Notes

In 1995, we issued Senior Subordinated Notes (“Subordinated Notes”) to certain shareholders. Such Subordinated Notes were classified as either Series B or Series C. The Series B Subordinated Notes were secured by our property and equipment, but subordinate to the security interests of Wells Fargo under the Facility. The Series C Subordinated Notes were unsecured. The maturity date of such Subordinated Notes was December 31, 2011, with interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%, and paid quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year. The Subordinated Notes could be prepaid at our option; however, the Subordinated Notes contained a cumulative prepayment premium of 13.5% per annum payable upon certain circumstances, which included, but were not limited to, an initial public offering of our common stock or a significant refinancing (“qualifying triggering event”), to the extent that sufficient net proceeds from either of the above events were received to pay such cumulative prepayment premium. Due to the contingent nature of the cumulative prepayment premium, any associated premium expense could only be quantified and recorded subsequent to the occurrence of such a qualifying triggering event.

On May 17, 2010, the principal balances of the Subordinated Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest totaling $4.2 million were paid in full, with the prepayment penalties on the repayment waived by the note holders. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, we incurred interest expense in the amount of $0, $0, and $0.2 million, respectively, on the Subordinated Notes.

Redeemable Preferred Stock

We currently have two primary classes of redeemable preferred stock - Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock and Public Preferred Stock. These classes of stock carry cumulative dividend rates of 14.125% and 12%, respectively. We accrue dividends on both classes of redeemable preferred stock and provide for accretion related to the Public Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2008, the Public Preferred Stock has been fully accreted. The total carrying amount of redeemable preferred stock, including accumulated and unpaid dividends was $116.5 million and $116.9 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We recorded dividends of $4.1 million and $4.2 million each for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, on the two classes of redeemable preferred stock, and such amounts have been included in interest expense.

Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock

The Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock is senior to all other outstanding equity of the Company, including the Public Preferred Stock. The Series A-1 ranks on a parity with the Series A-2. The components of the authorized Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock are 1,250 shares of Series A-1 and 1,750 shares of Series A-2 Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, each with $.01 par value. The Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock carries a cumulative per annum dividend rate of 14.125% of its liquidation value of $1,000 per share. The dividends are payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. We have not declared dividends on our Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock since its issuance. The liquidation preference of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock is the face amount of the Series A-1 and A-2 ($1,000 per share), plus all accrued and unpaid dividends.

Due to the terms of the Facility and of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, we have been and continue to be precluded from paying any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, other than described below. Certain holders of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock have entered into standby agreements whereby, among other things, those holders will not demand any payments in respect of dividends or redemptions of their instruments and the maturity dates of the instruments have been extended. As a result of such standby agreements, as of December 31, 2012, instruments held by Toxford Corporation ( “Toxford”), the holder of 76.4% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, will mature on August 31, 2014.

On September 27, 2010, the Facility was amended to allow for the redemption of up to $2.5 million of the aggregate value of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock under certain conditions, the most significant being the redemption at a discount from par value of at least 10%. In accordance with the terms of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, however, any redemption must be pro rata among the holders of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock unless such holders waive their rights to have their shares redeemed.

On September 27, 2010, with the consent and waiver of the remaining holders of the outstanding shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, 4.9% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock with a carrying value of $522,000 was redeemed for $430,000, resulting in a gain in the amount of $92,000, representing a discount of approximately 17.5%, which was recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of operations.

On or about March 15, 2011, Mr. John Porter, the beneficial owner of 44.0% of our Class A Common Stock, acquired a total of 75 shares and 105 shares of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, respectively, from other holders of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2011, Mr. Porter held 6.3% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. In the aggregate, as of December 31, 2011, Mr. Porter and Toxford held a total of 763 shares and 1,069 shares of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, respectively, or 82.7% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. Mr. Porter is the sole stockholder of Toxford.

On April 8, 2011, with the consent of the holders of the outstanding shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, 22.3% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock with a carrying value of $2.3 million was redeemed for $2.1 million, resulting in a gain in the amount of approximately $0.2 million, representing a discount of 10%, which was recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of operations. Subsequent to such redemption, the total number of shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding was 923 shares and 1,292 shares for Series A-1 and Series A-2, respectively.

On May 11, 2012, the Facility was amended to allow for the redemption of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, under certain conditions, at a discount from par value plus accrued dividends of at least 10%, at an aggregate price not to exceed $4.0 million. On May 16, 2012, with the consent of the holders of the outstanding shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, 26.7% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock with a carrying value of $2.2 million was redeemed for $2.0 million, resulting in a gain in the amount of approximately $0.2 million, representing a discount of 10%, which was recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of operations. Subsequent to such redemption, the total number of shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding was 677 shares and 947 shares for Series A-1 and Series A-2, respectively.

On August 24, 2012, with the consent of the holders of the outstanding shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, 36.0% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock with a carrying value of $2.2 million was redeemed for $2.0 million, resulting in a gain in the amount of approximately $0.2 million, representing a discount of 10%, which was recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of operations. Subsequent to such redemption, the total number of shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding was 433 shares and 607 shares for Series A-1 and Series A-2, respectively.

The total number of shares of Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was 433 shares and 923 shares for Series A-1, respectively; and 607 shares and 1,292 shares for Series A-2, respectively. Due to the limitations, contractual restrictions, and agreements described above, the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock is classified as noncurrent as of December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, cumulative undeclared, unpaid dividends relating to Senior Redeemable Preferred stock totaled $3.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively. We accrued dividends on the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock of $228,000, $337,000, and $418,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, which were reported as interest expense. Prior to the effective date of ASC 480-10, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” on July 1, 2003, such dividends were charged to stockholders’ deficit.

Public Preferred Stock

Redemption Provisions

Since 1991, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our Public Preferred Stock, based upon our interpretation of restrictions in our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, filed with the State of Maryland on January 5, 1992, as amended on April 14, 1995 (“Charter”), limitations in the terms of the Public Preferred Stock instrument, specific dividend payment restrictions in the Facility entered into with Wells Fargo, other senior obligations and Maryland law limitations in existence prior to October 1, 2009. Pursuant to their terms, we were scheduled, but not required, to redeem the Public Preferred Stock in five annual tranches during the period 2005 through 2009. However, due to our substantial senior obligations, limitations set forth in the covenants in the Facility, foreseeable capital and operational requirements, and restrictions and prohibitions of our Charter, we were unable to meet the redemption schedule set forth in the terms of the Public Preferred Stock instrument. Moreover, the Public Preferred Stock is not payable on demand, nor callable, for failure to redeem the Public Preferred Stock in accordance with the redemption schedule set forth in the instrument. Therefore, we have classified these securities as noncurrent liabilities in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.

We are parties with certain of our subsidiaries to the Facility agreement with Wells Fargo, whose term expires on May 17, 2014. Under the Facility, we agreed that, so long as any credit under the Facility is available and until full and final payment of the obligations under the Facility, we would not make any distribution or declare or pay any dividends (other than common stock) on our stock, or purchase, acquire, or redeem any stock, or exchange any stock for indebtedness, or retire any stock. We continue to actively rely upon the Facility and expect to continue to do so until the Facility expires on May 17, 2014.

Accordingly, as stated above, we will continue to classify the entirety of our obligation to redeem the Public Preferred Stock as a long-term obligation. The Facility prohibits, among other things, the redemption of any stock, common or preferred. The Public Preferred Stock by its terms cannot be redeemed if doing so would violate the terms of an agreement regarding the borrowing of funds or the extension of credit which is binding upon us or any of our subsidiaries, and it does not include any other provisions that would otherwise require any acceleration of the redemption of or amortization payments with respect to the Public Preferred Stock. Thus, the Public Preferred Stock is not and will not be due on demand, nor callable, within 12 months from December 31, 2012. This classification is consistent with ASC 210-10, “Balance Sheet” and 470-10, “Debt” and the FASB ASC Master Glossary definition of “Current Liabilities.”

ASC 210-10 and the FASB ASC Master Glossary define current liabilities as follows: The term current liabilities is used principally to designate obligations whose liquidation is reasonably expected to require the use of existing resources properly classifiable as current assets, or the creation of other current liabilities. As a balance sheet category, the classification is intended to include obligations for items which have entered into the operating cycle, such as payables incurred in the acquisition of materials and supplies to be used in the production of goods or in providing services to be offered for sale; collections received in advance of the delivery of goods or performance of services; and debts that arise from operations directly related to the operating cycle, such as accruals for wages, salaries, commissions, rentals, royalties, and income and other taxes. Other liabilities whose regular and ordinary liquidation is expected to occur within a relatively short period of time, usually 12 months, are also intended for inclusion, such as short-term debts arising from the acquisition of capital assets, serial maturities of long-term obligations, amounts required to be expended within one year under sinking fund provisions, and agency obligations arising from the collection or acceptance of cash or other assets for the account of third persons.

ASC 470-10 provides the following: The current liability classification is also intended to include obligations that, by their terms, are due on demand or will be due on demand within one year (or operating cycle, if longer) from the balance sheet date, even though liquidation may not be expected within that period. It is also intended to include long-term obligations that are or will be callable by the creditor either because the debtor’s violation of a provision of the debt agreement at the balance sheet date makes the obligation callable or because the violation, if not cured within a specified grace period, will make the obligation callable.

If, pursuant to the terms of the Public Preferred Stock, we do not redeem the Public Preferred Stock in accordance with the scheduled redemptions described above, the terms of the Public Preferred Stock require us to discharge our obligation to redeem the Public Preferred Stock as soon as we are financially capable and legally permitted to do so. Therefore, by its very terms, the Public Preferred Stock is not due on demand or callable for failure to make a scheduled payment pursuant to its redemption provisions and is properly classified as a noncurrent liability.

Dividend Provisions

We pay dividends on the Public Preferred Stock when and if declared by the Board of Directors. The Public Preferred Stock accrues a semi-annual dividend at the annual rate of 12% ($1.20) per share, based on the liquidation preference of $10 per share and is fully cumulative. Dividends in additional shares of the Public Preferred Stock for 1990 and 1991 were paid at the rate of 6% of a share for each $.60 of such dividends not paid in cash. For the cash dividends payable since December 1, 1995, we have accrued $80.6 million and $76.8 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. In 2012, we accrued cumulative Public Preferred Stock dividends of $3.8 million, which was recorded as interest expense.

The carrying value of the accrued Paid-in-Kind (“PIK”) dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for the period 1992 through June 1995 was $4.0 million. Had we accrued such dividends on a cash basis for this time period, the total amount accrued would have been $15.1 million. However, as a result of the redemption of the 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock in November 1998, such amounts were reduced and adjusted to $3.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively. Our Charter, Section 2(a) states, “Any dividends payable with respect to the Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Public Preferred Stock”) during the first six years after the Effective Date (November 20, 1989) may be paid (subject to restrictions under applicable state law), in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, in cash or by issuing additional fully paid and nonassessable shares of Exchangeable Preferred Stock …”. Accordingly, the Board had the discretion to pay the dividends for the referenced period in cash or by the issuance of additional shares of Public Preferred Stock. During the period in which we stated our intent to pay PIK dividends, we stated our intention to amend our Charter to permit such payment by the issuance of additional shares of Public Preferred Stock. In consequence, as required by applicable accounting requirements, the accrual for these dividends was recorded at the estimated fair value (as the average of the ask and bid prices) on the dividend date of the shares of Public Preferred Stock that would have been (but were not) issued. This accrual was $9.9 million lower than the accrual would be if the intent was only to pay the dividend in cash, at that date or any later date.

Table of Contents

In May 2006, the Board concluded that the accrual of PIK dividends for the period 1992 through June 1995 was no longer appropriate. Since 1995, we have disclosed in the footnotes to our audited consolidated financial statements the carrying value of the accrued PIK dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for the period 1992 through June 1995 was $4.0 million, and that had we accrued cash dividends during this time period, the total amount accrued would have been $15.1 million. As stated above, such amounts were reduced and adjusted to $3.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, due to the redemption of 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock in November 1998. On May 12, 2006, the Board voted to confirm that our intent with respect to the payment of dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for this period changed from its previously stated intent to pay PIK dividends to that of an intent to pay cash dividends. We therefore changed the accrual from $3.5 million to $13.4 million, the result of which was to increase our negative shareholder equity by the $9.9 million difference between those two amounts, by recording an additional $9.9 million charge to interest expense for the second quarter of 2006, resulting in a balance of $112.5 million and $108.6 million for the principal amount and all accrued dividends on the Public Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This action is considered a change in assumption that results in a change in accounting estimate as defined in ASC 250-10, which sets forth guidance concerning accounting changes and error corrections.

In accordance with ASC 480-10, both the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock and the Public Preferred Stock have been reclassified from equity to liability. Consequently, for the periods ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, dividends totaling $4.1 million, $4.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, were accrued and reported as interest expense in the respective periods. Prior to the effective date of ASC 480-10 on July 1, 2003, such dividends were charged to stockholders’ accumulated deficit.

Borrowing Capacity

Our working capital was $15.0 million and $15.2 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

At December 31, 2012, we had outstanding debt and long-term obligations of $138.9 million, consisting of $18.6 million under the Facility, $3.8 million in capital lease obligations and $116.5 million in redeemable preferred stock, which is classified as a liability pursuant to ASC 480-10.

We believe that available cash and borrowings under the Facility will be sufficient to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs for operating expenses, debt service requirements, and projected capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. We anticipate the continued need for a credit facility upon terms and conditions substantially similar to the Facility in order to meet our long term needs for operating expenses, debt service requirements, and projected capital expenditures. Although no assurances can be given, we expect that we will be in compliance throughout the term of the Facility with respect to the financial and other covenants in the Facility agreement.

(1) Includes interest expense:

1,762

856

----

(2) Amount does not include interest on the Facility as we are unable to predict the amounts of interest due to the short-term nature of the advances and repayments. Interest expense for 2012 was $0.7 million.

(3) In accordance with ASC 480, the senior preferred stock was reclassified from equity to liability in July 2003. Amount represents the carrying value as of December 31, 2012, and includes accrual of accumulated dividends of $3.0 million. Payment of such amount presumes conditions precedent being satisfied (See Note 8 – Redeemable Preferred Stock) and as such, redemption date is unknown and accordingly payment is not reflected in a particular period. Amount does not reflect additional dividends through the redemption date as such date is unknown. Such additional dividends accrue annually in the amount of $147,000.

(4) In accordance with ASC 480, the public preferred stock was reclassified from equity to liability in July 2003. Amount represents the carrying value as of December 31, 2012, and includes accrual of accumulated dividends and accretion of $106.1 million. Payment of such amount presumes conditions precedent being satisfied (See Note 8 – Redeemable Preferred Stock) and as such, redemption date is unknown and accordingly payment is not reflected in a particular period. Amount does not reflect additional dividends and accretion through the redemption date as such date is unknown. Such additional dividends accrue annually in the amount of $3.8 million. Such accretion has been fully accreted as of December 31, 2008.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Item 303, paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for property and equipment were $0.6 million in 2012, $0.7 million in 2011, and $0.7 million in 2010. We presently anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $1.3 million in 2013; however, there can be no assurance that this level of capital expenditures will occur. We believe that available cash and borrowings under the amended Facility will be sufficient to generate adequate amounts of cash to fund our projected capital expenditures for 2013.

Capital Leases and Related Obligations

We have various lease agreements for property and equipment that, pursuant to ASC 840, require us to record the present value of the minimum lease payments for such equipment and property as an asset in our consolidated financial statements. Such assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease or their useful life, whichever is shorter.

Inflation

The rate of inflation has been moderate over the past five years and, accordingly, has not had a significant impact on the Company. We have generally been able to pass through any increased costs to customers through higher prices to the extent permitted by competitive pressures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 7A.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to interest rate volatility with regard to our variable rate debt obligations under the Facility. As of December 31, 2012, interest on the Facility is charged at 4.25%. The effective average interest rates on the outstanding borrowings under the Facility in 2012 and 2011 were 5.6% and 6.3%, respectively. The Facility had an outstanding balance of $18.9 million at December 31, 2012.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Telos Corporation

Ashburn, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Telos Corporation and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Telos Corporation and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business and Organization

Telos Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, (the “Company” or “Telos” or “We”) is an information technology solutions and services company addressing the needs of U.S. Government and commercial customers worldwide. We own all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Xacta Corporation, a subsidiary that develops, markets and sells government-validated secure enterprise solutions to government and commercial customers. We also own all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Ubiquity.com, Inc., a holding company for Xacta Corporation and, prior to its dissolution in December 2012, Telos Delaware, Inc. We also have a 60% ownership interest in Telos Identity Management Solutions, LLC (“Telos ID”) and a 100% ownership interest in Teloworks, Inc. (“Teloworks”).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Telos and its subsidiaries, including Ubiquity.com, Inc., Xacta Corporation and Telos Delaware, Inc., all of whose issued and outstanding share capital is owned by the Company. We have also consolidated the results of operations of Telos ID (see Note 2 – Sale of Assets), and Teloworks. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, we have evaluated subsequent events through the date that these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. We currently operate in one operating and reportable business segment for financial reporting purposes. We currently have the following three business lines: Cyber Operations and Defense, Secure Communications, and Telos ID. Our Chief Executive Officer is the CODM. Our CODM manages our business primarily by function and reviews financial information on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information by line of business as well as certain operational data, for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The CODM only evaluates profitability based on consolidated results.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Our cash management program utilizes zero balance accounts. Accordingly, all book overdraft balances have been reclassified to accounts payable and other accrued payables, to the extent that availability of funds exists on our revolving credit facility.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the invoiced amount, less allowances for doubtful accounts. Collectability of accounts receivable is regularly reviewed based upon managements’ knowledge of the specific circumstances related to overdue balances. The allowance for doubtful accounts is adjusted based on such evaluation. Accounts receivable balances are written off against the allowance when management deems the balances uncollectible.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, where cost is determined on the weighted average method. Substantially all inventories consist of purchased customer off-the-shelf hardware and software, and component computer parts used in connection with system integration services that we perform. An allowance for obsolete, slow-moving or nonsalable inventory is provided for all other inventory. This allowance is based on our overall obsolescence experience and our assessment of future inventory requirements. This charge is taken primarily due to the age of the specific inventory and the significant additional costs that would be necessary to upgrade to current standards as well as the lack of forecasted sales for such inventory in the near future. Gross inventory is $10.7 million and $15.0 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, it is management’s judgment that we have fully provided for any potential inventory obsolescence.

The components of the allowance for inventory obsolescence are set forth below (in thousands):

	Balance Beginning of Year		Additions Charge to Costs and Expense		Deductions			Balance End of Year

Year Ended December 31, 2012	$	315	$	111	$	(10	)	$	416
Year Ended December 31, 2011	$	319	$	51	$	(55	)	$	315
Year Ended December 31, 2010	$	241	$	78	$	----		$	319

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the individual assets or classes of assets as follows:

Buildings	20 Years
Machinery and equipment	3-5 Years
Office furniture and fixtures	5 Years
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of life of lease or useful life of asset

Leased property meeting certain criteria is capitalized at the present value of the related minimum lease payments. Amortization of property and equipment under capital leases is computed on the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the related lease and the useful life of the related asset.

Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss on such disposition is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, such amounts are negligible. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

Our policy on internal use software is in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other.” This standard requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which are incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the software’s estimated useful life. We expensed all such software development costs in 2012, 2011, and 2010, as we believe that such amounts are immaterial.

Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment, including property and equipment under capital leases was $1.6 million each for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of temporary differences and income tax credits. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates that are applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized for differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Any change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in net income in the period in which the tax rate change is enacted. We record a valuation allowance that reduces deferred tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that deferred tax assets will not be realized.

We follow the provisions of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The accounting estimates related to liabilities for uncertain tax positions require us to make judgments regarding the sustainability of each uncertain tax position based on its technical merits. If we determine it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits, we record the impact of the position in our consolidated financial statements at the largest amount that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. These estimates are updated at each reporting date based on the facts, circumstances and information available. We are also required to assess at each reporting date whether it is reasonably possible that any significant increases or decreases to our unrecognized tax benefits will occur during the next 12 months.

Goodwill and other intangible assets

As the result of an acquisition, we record any excess purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired as goodwill. An allocation of the purchase price to tangible and intangible net assets acquired is based upon our valuation of the acquired assets. Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to annual impairment tests. We complete our goodwill impairment tests as of October 1st each year. Additionally, we make evaluations between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The evaluation is based on the estimation of the fair values of our three reporting units, Cyber Operation and Defense (“CO&D”), Secure Communications, and Telos ID, in comparison to the reporting unit’s net asset carrying values. Our discounted cash flows required management judgment with respect to forecasted revenue streams and operating margins, capital expenditures and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. We utilized the weighted average cost of capital as derived by certain assumptions specific to our facts and circumstances as the discount rate. The net assets attributable to the reporting units are determined based upon the estimated assets and liabilities attributable to the reporting units in deriving its free cash flows. In addition, the estimate of the total fair value of our reporting units is compared to the market capitalization of the Company. The Company’s assessment resulted in a fair value that was greater than the Company’s carrying value, therefore the second step of the impairment test, as prescribed by the authoritative literature, was not required to be performed and no impairment of goodwill was recorded as of December 31, 2012. Subsequent reviews may result in future periodic impairments that could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations in the period recognized.

Other intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationship enhancements. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. The amortization is based on a forecast of approximately equal annual customer orders over the 5-year period. Intangible assets are subject to impairment review if there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. As of December 31, 2012, no impairment charges were taken.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation cost is recognized based on the requirements of ASC 718, “Stock Compensation,” for all share-based awards granted. We have not granted any options since December 31, 2005.

Restricted Stock Grants

In June 2008, we issued 4,774,273 shares of restricted stock (Class A common) in exchange for the majority of stock options outstanding under the Telos Corporation, Xacta Corporation and Telos Delaware, Inc. stock option plans. In addition, we granted 7,141,501 shares of restricted stock to our executive officers and employees. In September 2008 and December 2009, we granted 480,000 shares and 80,000 shares, respectively, of restricted stock to certain of our directors. In February 2011, we granted an additional 2,330,804 shares of restricted stock to our executive officers, directors and employees. In March 2012, we granted an additional 10,000 shares to an employee. Such stock is subject to a vesting schedule as follows: 25% of the restricted stock vests immediately on the date of grant, thereafter, an additional 25% will vest annually on the anniversary of the date of grant subject to continued employment or services. In the event of death of the employee or a change in control, as defined by the Plan, all unvested shares shall automatically vest in full. In accordance with ASC 718, we reported no compensation expense for any of the issuances as the value of the common stock was negligible, based on the deduction of our outstanding debt, capital lease obligations, and preferred stock from an estimated enterprise value, which was estimated based on discounted cash flow analysis, comparable public company analysis, and comparable transaction analysis.

Research and Development

For all years presented, we charge all research and development costs to expense as incurred. For research and development costs for software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, such costs are capitalized once technological feasibility is reached. Technological feasibility is established when all planning, designing, coding and testing activities have been completed, and all risks have been identified. To date, no such costs have been capitalized, as costs incurred after reaching technological feasibility have been insignificant. During 2012, 2011, and 2010, we incurred salary costs for research and development of approximately $1.2 million, $1.0 million, and $0.8 million, respectively, which are recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Earnings per Share

As we do not have publicly held common stock or potential common stock, no earnings per share data is reported for any of the years presented.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. Our comprehensive income was comprised of a loss from foreign currency translation of $37,000, $18,000, and $26,000 as of December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively; and actuarial gain on pension liability adjustments in Teloworks of $109,000, $53,000 and $0 as of December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

Financial Instruments

We use various methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is based on the discounted cash flows for similar term borrowings based on market prices for the same or similar issues. See Note 5 – Fair Value Measurements for fair value disclosures of the ITL notes and senior redeemable preferred stock.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” that amends the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing. The amended guidance will allow companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income,” that requires companies to present either in a single note or on the face of the financial statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. If a component is not required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety, companies would instead cross reference to the related footnote for additional information. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 2. Sale of Assets

On April 11, 2007, Telos ID was formed as a limited liability company under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. We contributed substantially all of the assets of our Identity Management business line and assigned our rights to perform under our U.S. Government contract with the Defense Manpower Data Center (“DMDC”) to Telos ID at their stated book values. The net book value of assets we contributed totaled $17,000. Until April 19, 2007, we owned 99.999% of the membership interests of Telos ID and certain private equity investors (“Investors”) owned 0.001% of the membership interests of Telos ID. On April 20, 2007, we sold an additional 39.999% of the membership interests to the Investors in exchange for $6 million in cash consideration. In accordance with ASC 505-10, “Equity-Overall,” we recognized a gain of $5.8 million. As a result, we own 60% of Telos ID, and therefore continue to account for the investment in Telos ID using the consolidation method.

The Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Telos ID (“Operating Agreement”) provides for a Board of Directors comprised of five members. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, John B. Wood, Chairman and CEO of Telos, has been designated as the Chairman of the Board of Telos ID. The Operating Agreement also provides for two subclasses of membership units: Class A, held by us and Class B, held by certain private equity investors. The Class A membership unit owns 60% of Telos ID, as mentioned above, and as such is allocated 60% of the profits, which was $3.1 million, $3.1 million and $1.8 million for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, and is entitled to appoint three members of the Board of Directors. The Class B membership unit owns 40% of Telos ID, and as such is allocated 40% of the profits, which was $2.1 million, $2.0 million and $1.2 million for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, and is entitled to appoint two members of the Board of Directors. The Class B membership unit is the non-controlling interest.

In accordance with the Operating Agreement, quarterly distributions of $450,000 were required to be made to the Class B members for the initial eighteen month period after the sale of Telos ID membership interests. Further, subsequent to the initial eighteen month period, distributions were to be made to the members only when and to the extent determined by the Telos ID’s Board of Directors, in accordance with the Operating Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Class B membership unit received a total of $2.0 million, $2.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of such distributions.

The following table details the changes in non-controlling interest for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 (in thousands):

	2012			2011			2010

Non-controlling interest, beginning of period	$	381		$	454		$	328
Net income		2,060			2,049			1,197
Distributions		(1,973	)		(2,122	)		(1,071	)

Note 3. Acquisition of IT Logistics, Inc.

On July 1, 2011, we entered into, and concurrently completed the transactions contemplated by, the Asset Purchase Agreement with IT Logistics Inc., an Alabama corporation (“ITL”), and its sole stockholder. We purchased certain assets relating to the operation of ITL’s business of providing survey, design, engineering, and installation services of inside and outside plant secure networking infrastructure and program management expertise. Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, Telos assumed certain liabilities of ITL, principally liabilities that accrued on or after July 1, 2011, under certain contracts assumed by Telos.

The purchase price for the assets (in addition to the assumed liabilities described above) consisted of (1) $8 million payable on July 1, 2011, (2) $7 million payable in ten monthly payments of $700,000, together with interest on the unpaid balance of such amount at the rate of 0.50% per annum, beginning on August 1, 2011 and on the first day of each subsequent month thereafter, and (3) a subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) with a principal amount of $15 million. The Note accrues interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum beginning November 1, 2012, and is payable on July 1, 2041. The entire unpaid principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest was due and payable upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the Note), provided that all “Senior Obligations” are satisfied prior to or concurrent with such Change in Control. For purposes of the Note, “Senior Obligations” means, collectively, all (1) outstanding indebtedness of Telos, and (2) amounts due to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, and 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Preferred Stock (or any securities redeemable or exchangeable for any of the foregoing) upon a Change in Control, upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of Telos, or otherwise. Based on the total fair value of the consideration paid, the total purchase price was determined to be $26.5 million.

As of December 31, 2012, the $7 million payable in ten monthly payments had been paid in full, the Note was prepaid at a discount of 50% off of its principal amount, with no prepayment penalties. See Note 7 – “Current Liabilities and Debt Obligations.”

ITL had been a Telos subcontractor for several years, utilized by our former Secure Networks business line which is currently part of the Cyber Operations and Defense business line. The acquisition allows the Company to internally maintain the capacity for the work ITL performs, instead of subcontracting such work. Major General John W. Maluda, who serves on the Company’s board of directors, served on the advisory board of ITL, and this relationship was disclosed to the Company’s board of directors before its consideration of the acquisition. General Maluda did not have any financial stake in ITL and did not receive any benefit from the sale of its assets to Telos.

The asset purchase agreement and the complete terms of the notes were filed as exhibits to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on July 8, 2011. Borrowings of $8.0 million were drawn from the Facility in order to finance the initial cash consideration.

The operating results of ITL have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date of July 1, 2011. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to ITL’s net tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as of July 1, 2011. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is amortized and deducted over a 15-year period for tax purposes. Telos has made an allocation of the purchase price as follows (amounts in thousands):

Inventories, net	$	221
Property and equipment, net		108
Goodwill		14,916
Other intangible asset		11,286
Total purchase price allocation	$	26,531

Of the total purchase price, approximately $11.3 million has been allocated to an amortizable intangible asset acquired and approximately $0.3 million has been allocated to tangible net assets assumed in connection with the acquisition.

Note 4. Goodwill and Intangible Asset

As of December 31, 2011, the balance of goodwill was $15.1 million. Due to the finalization of the purchase price allocation in the first quarter of 2012, the goodwill balance was adjusted by $142,000 to $14.9 million.

Other intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationship enhancements. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. The amortization is based on a forecast of approximately equal annual customer orders over the 5-year period. Amortization expense for 2012 and 2011 was $2.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Amortization expense will be $2.3 million annually for the next 3.5 years. Intangible assets are subject to impairment review if there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. As of December 31, 2012, no impairment charges were taken.

Other intangible asset consists of the following:

	December 31, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Cost		Accumulated Amortization		Cost		Accumulated Amortization
Other intangible asset	$	11,286	$	3,386	$	11,286	$	1,129
	$	11,286	$	3,386	$	11,286	$	1,129

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The framework requires the valuation of investments using a three-tiered approach. The statement requires fair value measurement to be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets and liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; or

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we did not have any financial instruments with significant Level 3 inputs and we did not have any financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

At December 31, 2011, there were two notes payable to the seller of ITL (see Note 3 – Acquisition of IT Logistics, Inc.). The $7 million note was recorded at a fair value of $6.9 million at the acquisition date. The outstanding balance of the $7 million note was zero and $3.5 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Additionally, the $15 million subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) was recorded at its fair value of $11.7 million and had been accreted to its carrying value of $12.1 million as of December 31, 2011. The Note was to be accreted to its face value over 60 months. On December 18, 2012, we prepaid the Note at a discount of 50% off of its principal amount (see Note 7 – Current Liabilities and Debt Obligations).

On April 8, 2011, 22.3% of the senior redeemable preferred stock (the “Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock”) was redeemed for $2.1 million, on May 16, 2012, 26.7% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock was redeemed for $2.0 million, and on August 24, 2012, 36.0% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock was redeemed for $2.0 million (see Note 8 – Redeemable Preferred Stock). As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying value of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock was $4.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively. Since there have been no material changes in the Company’s financial condition and no material modifications to the financial instruments, the estimated fair value of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock remains consistent with amounts recorded as of December 31, 2012.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying value of the Company’s 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Public Preferred Stock”) was $112.5 million and $108.6 million, respectively, and the estimated fair market value was $47.8 million and $65.3 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices.

Note 6. Revenue and Accounts Receivable

Revenue resulting from contracts and subcontracts with the U.S. Government accounted for 99.1%, 99.1%, and 97.4% of consolidated revenue in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. As our primary customer base includes agencies of the U.S. Government, we have a concentration of credit risk associated with our accounts receivable, as 97.0% of our billed accounts receivable were directly with U.S. Government customers. While we acknowledge the potentially material and adverse risk of such a significant concentration of credit risk, our past experience of collecting substantially all of such receivables provide us with an informed basis that such risk, if any, is manageable. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of all of our customers and generally do not require collateral or other guarantee from our customers. We maintain allowances for potential losses.

The components of accounts receivable are as follows (in thousands):

	December 31,
	2012			2011
Billed accounts receivable	$	21,476		$	26,299
Unbilled receivables		12,722			11,022
Allowance for doubtful accounts		(319	)		(375	)

Revenue by Major Market and Significant Customers

We derived substantially all of our revenues from contracts and subcontracts with the U.S. Government. Revenue by customer sector for the last three fiscal years is as follows:

	2012				2011				2010
					(dollar amounts in thousands)

Federal	$	224,010	99.1	%	$	188,162	99.1	%	$	220,017	97.4	%

Note 7. Current Liabilities and Debt Obligations

Accounts Payable and Other Accrued Payables

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the accounts payable and other accrued payables consisted of $16.4 million and $16.0 million, respectively, in trade account payables and $6.7 million and $5.9 million, respectively, in accrued payables.

Senior Revolving Credit Facility

On May 17, 2010, we amended our $25 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. (“Wells Fargo”). Under the amended terms, the maturity date of the Facility was extended to May 17, 2014 from September 30, 2011, the limit on the Facility was increased to $30 million from $25 million, and a term loan component of $7.5 million was added to the Facility. The principal of the term loan component will be repaid in quarterly installments of $93,750, with a final installment of the unpaid principal amount payable on May 17, 2014. The interest rate on the term loan component is the same as that on the revolving credit component of the Facility, which was changed to the higher of the Wells Fargo Bank “prime rate” plus 1%, the Federal Funds rate plus 1.5%, or the 3-month LIBOR rate plus 2%. In lieu of having interest charged at the foregoing rates, the Company may elect to have the interest on all or a portion of the advances on the revolving credit component be a rate based on the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Facility) plus 3.75%. As of December 31, 2012, we have not elected the LIBOR Rate option. Borrowings under the Facility continue to be collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets including inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. The financial covenants were updated to include minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Facility), minimum recurring revenue and a limit on capital expenditures. The Facility’s anniversary fee was discontinued and the collateral management fee was reduced. Additionally, the Facility was amended to permit the full repayment of the entire principal amount of the Subordinated Notes (as defined below).

On December 17, 2012, Wells Fargo consented to the payment of approximately $7.6 million of the ITL note.

The following are maturities of the Facility presented by year (in thousands):

Notes payable – IT Logistics, Inc.

On July 1, 2011, we entered into, and concurrently completed the transactions contemplated by, the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with IT Logistics Inc., an Alabama Corporation (“ITL”), and its sole stockholder, see Note 3 – Acquisition of IT Logisics, Inc. The Agreement provides for the purchase of certain assets relating to the operation of ITL’s business of providing survey, design, engineering, and installation services of inside and outside plant secure networking infrastructure and program management expertise. Under the terms of the Agreement, Telos assumed certain liabilities of ITL, principally liabilities that accrue on or after July 1, 2011, under certain contracts assumed by Telos.

Senior Subordinated Notes

In 1995, we issued Senior Subordinated Notes (“Subordinated Notes”) to certain shareholders. Such Subordinated Notes were classified as either Series B or Series C. The Series B Subordinated Notes were secured by our property and equipment, but subordinate to the security interests of Wells Fargo under the Facility. The Series C Subordinated Notes were unsecured. The maturity date of such Subordinated Notes had been extended to December 31, 2011, with interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%, and paid quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year. The Subordinated Notes could be prepaid at our option; however, the Subordinated Notes contained a cumulative prepayment premium of 13.5% per annum payable upon certain circumstances, which included, but were not limited to, an initial public offering of our common stock or a significant refinancing (“qualifying triggering event”), to the extent that sufficient net proceeds from either of the above events were received to pay such cumulative prepayment premium. Due to the contingent nature of the cumulative prepayment premium, any associated premium expense could only be quantified and recorded subsequent to the occurrence of such a qualifying triggering event.

Note 8. Redeemable Preferred Stock

Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock

On or about March 15, 2011, Mr. John Porter, the beneficial owner of 44.0% of our Class A Common Stock, acquired a total of 75 shares and 105 shares of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, respectively, from other holders of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2012, Mr. Porter held 6.3% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. In the aggregate, as of December 31, 2012, Mr. Porter and Toxford held a total of 359 shares and 502 shares of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, respectively, or 82.7% of the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock. Mr. Porter is the sole stockholder of Toxford.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, cumulative undeclared, unpaid dividends relating to Senior Redeemable Preferred stock totaled $3.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively. We accrued dividends on the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock of $228,000, $337,000 and $418,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, which were reported as interest expense. Prior to the effective date of ASC 480-10, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” on July 1, 2003, such dividends were charged to stockholders’ deficit.

12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock

A maximum of 6,000,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, has been authorized for issuance. We initially issued 2,858,723 shares of the Public Preferred Stock pursuant to the acquisition of the Company during fiscal year 1990. The Public Preferred Stock was recorded at fair value on the date of original issue, November 21, 1989, and we made periodic accretions under the interest method of the excess of the redemption value over the recorded value. We adjusted our estimate of accrued accretion in the amount of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2006. The Public Preferred Stock was fully accreted as of December 2008. We declared stock dividends totaling 736,863 shares in 1990 and 1991. Since 1991, no other dividends, in stock or cash, have been declared. In November 1998, we retired 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock. The total number of shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011, was 3,185,586. The Public Preferred Stock is quoted as TLSRP on the OTCQB marketplace and the OTC Bulletin Board.

Since 1991, no other dividends were declared or paid on our Public Preferred Stock, based upon our interpretation of restrictions in our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, limitations in the terms of the Public Preferred Stock instrument, specific dividend payment restrictions in the Facility entered into with Wells Fargo to which the Public Preferred Stock is subject, other senior obligations, and Maryland law limitations in existence prior to October 1, 2009. Pursuant to their terms, we were scheduled, but not required, to redeem the Public Preferred Stock in five annual tranches during the period 2005 through 2009. However, due to our substantial senior obligations, limitations set forth in the covenants in the Facility, foreseeable capital and operational requirements, and restrictions and prohibitions of our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, we were unable to meet the redemption schedule set forth in the terms of the Public Preferred Stock. Moreover, the Public Preferred Stock is not payable on demand, nor callable, for failure to redeem the Public Preferred Stock in accordance with the redemption schedule set forth in the instrument. Therefore, we classify these securities as noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Accordingly, as stated above, we will continue to classify the entirety of our obligation to redeem the Public Preferred Stock as a long-term obligation. The Facility prohibits, among other things, the redemption of any stock, common or preferred, other than as described above. The Public Preferred Stock by its terms cannot be redeemed if doing so would violate the terms of an agreement regarding the borrowing of funds or the extension of credit which is binding upon us or any of our subsidiaries, and it does not include any other provisions that would otherwise require any acceleration of the redemption of or amortization payments with respect to the Public Preferred Stock. Thus, the Public Preferred Stock is not and will not be due on demand, nor callable, within 12 months from December 31, 2011. This classification is consistent with ASC 210-10, “Balance Sheet” and 470-10, “Debt” and the FASB ASC Master Glossary definition of “Current Liabilities.”

ASC 210-10 and the FASB ASC Master Glossary define current liabilities as follows: The term current liabilities is used principally to designate obligations whose liquidation is reasonably expected to require the use of existing resources properly classifiable as current assets, or the creation of other current liabilities. As a balance sheet category, the classification is intended to include obligations for items which have entered into the operating cycle, such as payables incurred in the acquisition of materials and supplies to be used in the production of goods or in providing services to be offered for sale; collections received in advance of the delivery of goods or performance of services; and debts that arise from operations directly related to the operating cycle, such as accruals for wages, salaries, commissions, rentals, royalties, and income and other taxes. Other liabilities whose regular and ordinary liquidation is expected to occur within a relatively short period of time, usually twelve months, are also intended for inclusion, such as short-term debts arising from the acquisition of capital assets, serial maturities of long-term obligations, amounts required to be expended within one year under sinking fund provisions, and agency obligations arising from the collection or acceptance of cash or other assets for the account of third persons.

The carrying value of the accrued Paid-in-Kind (“PIK”) dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for the period 1992 through June 1995 was $4.0 million. Had we accrued such dividends on a cash basis for this time period, the total amount accrued would have been $15.1 million. However, as a result of the redemption of the 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock in November 1998, such amounts were reduced and adjusted to $3.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively. Our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, Section 2(a) states, “Any dividends payable with respect to the Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Public Preferred Stock”) during the first six years after the Effective Date (November 20, 1989) may be paid (subject to restrictions under applicable state law), in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, in cash or by issuing additional fully paid and nonassessable shares of Exchangeable Preferred Stock …”. Accordingly, the Board had the discretion to pay the dividends for the referenced period in cash or by the issuance of additional shares of Public Preferred Stock. During the period in which we stated our intent to pay PIK dividends, we stated our intention to amend our Charter to permit such payment by the issuance of additional shares of Public Preferred Stock. In consequence, as required by applicable accounting requirements, the accrual for these dividends was recorded at the estimated fair value (as the average of the ask and bid prices) on the dividend date of the shares of Public Preferred Stock that would have been (but were not) issued. This accrual was $9.9 million lower than the accrual would be if the intent was only to pay the dividend in cash, at that date or any later date.

In May 2006, the Board concluded that the accrual of PIK dividends for the period 1992 through June 1995 was no longer appropriate. Since 1995, we have disclosed in the footnotes to our audited financial statements the carrying value of the accrued PIK dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for the period 1992 through June 1995 as $4.0 million, and that had we accrued cash dividends during this time period, the total amount accrued would have been $15.1 million. As stated above, such amounts were reduced and adjusted to $3.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, due to the redemption of 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock in November 1998. On May 12, 2006, the Board voted to confirm that our intent with respect to the payment of dividends on the Public Preferred Stock for this period changed from its previously stated intent to pay PIK dividends to that of an intent to pay cash dividends. We therefore changed the accrual from $3.5 million to $13.4 million, the result of which was to increase our negative shareholder equity by the $9.9 million difference between those two amounts, by recording an additional $9.9 million charge to interest expense for the second quarter of 2006, resulting in a balance of $112.5 million and $108.6 million for the principal amount and all accrued dividends on the Public Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This action is considered a change in assumption that results in a change in accounting estimate as defined in ASC 250-10, which sets forth guidance concerning accounting changes and error corrections.

Note 9. Stockholders' Deficit, Option Plans, and Employee Benefit Plan

Common Stock

The relative rights, preferences, and limitations of the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock are in all respects identical. The holders of the common stock have one vote for each share of common stock held. Subject to the priority rights of the Public Preferred Stock and any series of the Senior Preferred Stock, holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared.

Restricted Stock Grants

Stock Options

We have granted stock options to certain of our employees under five plans. The Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan was adopted in 1990 (“1990 Stock Option Plan”) and had option grants under it through 2000. In 1993, stock option plan agreements were reached with certain employees (“1993 Stock Option Plan”). In 1996, the Board of Directors approved and the shareholders ratified the 1996 Stock Option Plan (“1996 Stock Option Plan”).

In 2000, the Board of Directors approved two stock option plans, one for Telos Delaware, Inc. (“Telos Delaware Stock Incentive Plan”) and one for Xacta Corporation (“Xacta Stock Incentive Plan”), both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. All stock options issued under these plans have expired as of December 31, 2012.

As determined by the members of the Compensation Committee, we generally grant options under our respective plans at the estimated fair value at the date of grant, based upon all information available to it at the time.

1996 Stock Option Plan

The 1996 Stock Option Plan allowed for the award of options to purchase up to 6,644,974 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of not lower than the estimated fair value at the date of grant. Vesting of the stock options for key employees was based both upon the passage of time, generally four years, and certain key events occurring including an initial public offering or a change in control. The stock options may be exercised over a ten-year period subject to the vesting requirements. Effective May 10, 2004, the 1996 Stock Option Plan was amended by the Board of Directors to increase the total amount of authorized shares of Class A common stock to 7,345,433, an increase of 700,459 shares, to reflect those options granted to Mr. Wood that were not exercised under the 1993 Stock Option Plan. The 1996 Stock Option Plan expired in March 2006, with its remaining 516,000 unissued options canceled. There were 20,000 options outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011. A total of 2,463,500 options were exchanged for restricted stock in June 2008.

Telos Delaware Stock Incentive Plan

During the third quarter of 2000, our Board of Directors approved a new stock option plan for Telos Delaware, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Certain of our key executives and employees were eligible to receive stock options under the plan. Under the plan, we may award up to 3,500,000 shares of common stock as either incentive or non-qualified stock options. An incentive option must have an exercise price of not lower than fair value on the date of grant. A non-qualified option would not have an exercise price any lower than 85% of the fair value on the date of grant. All options had a term of ten years and vested no less rapidly than the rate of 20% per year for each of the first five years unless changed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. There were 0 and 6,564 options outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. A total of 6,564, 10,252, and 76,378 options expired during 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively; 0, 2,000, and 2,750 options were canceled in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively; and 983,379 options were exchanged for restricted stock in June 2008. Telos Delaware, Inc. was dissolved in December 2012.

Xacta Stock Incentive Plan

In the third quarter of 2000, Xacta Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, initiated a stock option plan under which up to 3,500,000 shares of Xacta common stock may be awarded to key employees and associates. The options may be awarded as incentive or non-qualified, had a term of ten years, and vested no less rapidly than the rate of 20% per year for each of the first five years unless changed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The exercise price may not be less than the estimated fair value on the date of grant for an incentive option, or less than 85% of the estimated fair value on the date of grant for a non-qualified stock option. There were 0 and 3,750 options outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. A total of 3,750, 8,564, amd 39,005 options expired during 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively; 0, 4,250, and 876 options were canceled in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively; and 2,498,564 options were exchanged for restricted stock in June 2008.

The aggregate intrinsic value for options outstanding and exercisable at year end 2012 is negligible. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between our fair market value as determined by management and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of share-based awards) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2012.

Telos Shared Savings Plan

We sponsor a defined contribution employee savings plan (the “Plan”) under which substantially all full-time employees are eligible to participate. The Plan holds 3,658,536 shares of Telos Class A common stock. Since no public market exists for Telos Class A common stock, the Trustees of the Plan and their professional advisors undertake an annual evaluation, based upon the most recent audited financial statements. To date, the Plan’s trustees have priced the stock at the exact midpoint of the evaluated range of the value of the stock. We match one-half of employee contributions to the Plan up to a maximum of 2% of such employee’s eligible annual base salary. Participant contributions vest immediately, and Company contributions vest at the rate of 20% for each year, with full vesting occurring after completion of five years of service. Our total contributions to this Plan for 2012, 2011, and 2010 were $649,000, $591,000, and $786,000, respectively.

Additionally, effective September 1, 2007, Telos ID sponsors a defined contribution savings plan under which substantially all full-time employees are eligible to participate. Telos ID matches one-half of employee contributions to the Plan up to a maximum of 2% of such employee’s eligible annual base salary. The total 2012, 2011, and 2010 Telos ID contributions to this plan were $77,000, $69,000, and $85,000, respectively.

At December 31, 2012, for federal income tax purposes all available net operating loss carryforwards and alternative minimum tax credits have been fully utilized.

We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of January 1, 2007 and determined that there were approximately $534,000 and $400,000 of unrecognized tax benefits required to be recorded in other current liabilities as of December 31, 2012 or 2011, respectively. We believe that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will not significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. The period for which tax years are open, 2009 to 2012, has not been extended beyond the applicable statute of limitations.

Note 11. Commitments

Leases

We lease office space and equipment under noncancelable operating and capital leases with various expiration dates, some of which contain renewal options.

On March 1, 1996, we entered into a 20-year capital lease for a building in Ashburn, Virginia, that serves as our corporate headquarters. We have accounted for this transaction as a capital lease and have accordingly recorded assets and a corresponding liability of approximately $12.3 million.

The following is a schedule by years of future minimum payments under capital leases together with the present value of the net minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

	Property			Equipment			Total
2013	$	2,064			34			2,098

Long-term capital lease obligations at December 31, 2012	$	3,739		$	64		$	3,803

In accordance with the Ashburn lease agreement, every three years the rent is subject to adjustments in accordance with changes in the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Accordingly, effective April 2011, the adjustment in monthly rent payment based on the change in CPI was $7,000 per month, from $165,000 to $172,000.

Accumulated amortization for property and equipment under capital leases at December 31, 2012 and 2011 is $11.7 million and $11.1 million, respectively.

Future minimum lease payments for all noncancelable operating leases at December 31, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

2013	$	679
2014		512
2015		523
2016		382

Total minimum lease payments	$	4,169

Rent expense charged to operations for 2012, 2011, and 2010, totaled $1.1 million, $1.2 million, and $1.2 million, respectively.

Warranties

We provide product warranties for products sold through certain U.S. Government contract vehicles. We accrue a warranty liability at the time that we recognize revenue for the estimated costs that may be incurred in connection with providing warranty coverage. Warranties are valued using historical warranty usage trends; however, if actual product failure rates or service delivery costs differ from estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability may be required. Accrued warranties are reported as other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Condition and Liquidity

As described in Note 7 – Current Liabilities and Debt Obligations, we maintain a revolving Facility with Wells Fargo. Borrowings under the Facility are collateralized by substantially all of our assets including inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. The amount of available borrowings fluctuates based on the underlying asset-borrowing base, in general 85% of our trade accounts receivable, as adjusted by certain reserves (as further defined in the Facility agreement). The Facility provides us with virtually all of the liquidity we require to meet our operating, investing and financing needs. Therefore, maintaining sufficient availability on the Facility is the most critical factor in our liquidity. While a variety of factors related to sources and uses of cash, such as timeliness of accounts receivable collections, vendor credit terms, or significant collateral requirements, ultimately impact our liquidity, such factors may or may not have a direct impact on our liquidity, based on how the transactions associated with such circumstances impact our availability under the Facility. For example, a contractual requirement to post collateral for a duration of several months, depending on the materiality of the amount, could have an immediate negative effect on our liquidity, as such a circumstance would utilize availability on the Facility without a near-term cash inflow back to us. Likewise, the release of such collateral could have a corresponding positive effect on our liquidity, as it would represent an addition to our availability without any corresponding near-term cash outflow. Similarly, a slow-down of payments from a customer, group of customers or government payment office would not have an immediate and direct effect on our availability on the Facility unless the slowdown was material in amount and over an extended period of time. Any of these examples would have an impact on the Facility, and therefore our liquidity.

We believe that available cash and borrowings under the amended Facility will be sufficient to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs for operating expenses, debt service requirements, and projected capital expenditures through the foreseeable future. We anticipate the continued need for a credit facility upon terms and conditions substantially similar to the amended Facility in order to meet our long term needs for operating expenses, debt service requirements, and projected capital expenditures. Our working capital was $15.0 million and $15.2 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Although no assurances can be given, we expect that we will be in compliance throughout the term of the amended Facility with respect to the financial and other covenants.

Legal Proceedings

Costa Brava Partnership III, L.P., et al. v. Telos Corporation, et al.

As previously reported, on October 17, 2005, Costa Brava Partnership III, L.P. (“Costa Brava”), a holder of Public Preferred Stock, instituted litigation against the Company and certain past and present directors and officers in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (the “Circuit Court”). A second holder of the Company’s Public Preferred Stock, Wynnefield Small Cap Value, L.P. (“Wynnefield”), subsequently intervened as a co-Plaintiff (Costa Brava and Wynnefield are hereinafter referred to as “Plaintiffs”). On February 27, 2007, Plaintiffs added, as an additional defendant, Mr. John R. C. Porter, a holder of the Company’s common stock.

In the litigation, Plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the Company and its officers and directors engaged in tactics to avoid paying dividends on the Public Preferred Stock, that the Company made improper bonus payments or awards to officers and directors, that certain former and present officers and directors breached legal duties or the standard of care that they owed the Company, that the Company improperly paid consulting fees to and engaged in loan transactions with Mr. Porter, that the Company failed to improve on the Company’s purported insolvency, that the Company failed to redeem the Public Preferred Stock as required by the Company’s charter, and shareholder oppression against Mr. Porter.

On December 22, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors established a special litigation committee (“Special Litigation Committee”), composed of certain independent directors, to review and evaluate the matters raised in the litigation. On July 20, 2007, the Special Litigation Committee, in its final report, concluded that the available evidence did not support Plaintiffs’ derivative claims and that it was not in the best interests of the Company to pursue such claims in the litigation. On August 24, 2007, the Company moved to dismiss Plaintiffs’ derivative claims based upon the report and to dismiss all remaining claims for failure to state a claim. Following an evidentiary hearing, the Court dismissed all derivative claims based upon the recommendation of the Special Litigation Committee on January 7, 2008.

On February 12, 2008, the Plaintiffs filed a Third Amended Complaint that included both new counts and previously dismissed counts. The Company moved to dismiss or strike the Third Amended Complaint and, on April 15, 2008, the Circuit Court issued an order dismissing with prejudice all counts in the Third Amended Complaint that were not previously disposed of by motion or stipulation. On December 2, 2008, the Company filed a motion for voluntary dismissal of its counterclaim against Plaintiffs (for their interference with the Company’s relationship with Wells Fargo) without prejudice. The Circuit Court granted that motion, over Plaintiffs’ opposition, on January 23, 2009.

Following Plaintiffs’ appeal of the dismissal of their derivative claims and shareholder oppression claim, on September 7, 2012, the Court of Special Appeals ruled that the Circuit Court applied an incorrect standard of review to evaluate the conclusions of the Special Litigation Committee. The Court of Special Appeals held that the Circuit Court’s dismissal of a shareholder oppression claim (asserted against Mr. Porter) raised an issue of first impression under Maryland law and required further briefing in the Circuit Court. The Court of Special Appeals vacated the decision of the Circuit Court that had been appealed and remanded the case for further consideration and proceedings.

Table of Contents

On October 24, 2012, the Company filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the Court of Appeals of Maryland, which was denied on January 22, 2013.

At this stage of the litigation, it is impossible to reasonably determine the degree of probability related to Plaintiffs’ success in relation to any of their assertions in the litigation. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the case, the Company and its present and former officers and directors strenuously deny Plaintiffs’ allegations and continue to vigorously defend the matter and oppose all relief sought by Plaintiffs.

Hamot et al. v. Telos Corporation

As previously reported, since August 2, 2007, Messrs. Seth W. Hamot and Andrew R. Siegel, principals of Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. (“Costa Brava”) and Class D Directors of the Company (“Class D Directors”), have been involved in litigation against the Company in the Circuit Court for the City of Baltimore, Maryland (the “Court”). The Class D Directors initially alleged that certain documents and records had not been promptly provided to them and were necessary to fulfill their duties as directors of the Company. Subsequently, the Class D Directors further alleged that the Company had failed to follow certain provisions concerning the noticing of Board committee meetings and the recording of Board meeting minutes and, additionally, that Mr. Wood’s service as both CEO and Chairman of the Board was improper and impermissible under the Company’s Bylaws.

By way of preliminary injunctions entered on August 28, 2007 and September 24, 2007, the Court ordered that the Class D Directors are entitled to documents in response to reasonable requests for information pertinent and necessary to perform their duties as members of the Board but, in light of the Costa Brava shareholder litigation, the Company is entitled to designated certain documents as “confidential” or “highly confidential” and to withhold certain documents from the Class D Directors based upon the work product doctrine or attorney-client privilege. Pursuant to the preliminary injunctions, the Class D Directors are also entitled to receive written responses to requests for Board of Directors or Board committee minutes within seven days of any such requests and copies of such minutes within fifteen days of any such requests, as well as written responses to all other requests for information and/or documents related to their duties as directors within seven days of such requests, and all Board of Directors appropriate information and/or documents within thirty days of any such requests.

On April 23, 2008, the Company filed a counterclaim against the Class D Directors for money damages and preliminary and injunctive relief based upon the Class D Directors’ interference with, and improper influence of, the Company’s independent auditors regarding, among other things, a specific accounting treatment. On June 27, 2008, the Court granted the Company’s motion for preliminary injunction and enjoined the Class D Directors from contacting the Company’s auditors until the completion of the Company’s Form 10-K for the preceding year. This preliminary injunction expired by its own terms and an appeal from that ordered was held to be moot by the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

On April 12, 2010, the Class D Directors filed a motion for the advancement of legal fees and expenses incurred in defense of the Company’s counterclaim. On November 3, 2011, the Court denied the Plaintiffs’ motion, as well as the Plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment and request for attorneys’ fees. On May 21, 2012, the Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration of the same.

Trial on both the Class D Directors’ claims and the Company’s counterclaims is scheduled to commence June 12, 2013.

At this stage of the litigation it is impossible to reasonably determine the degree of probability related to the Class D Directors’ success in any of their assertions and claims, or whether such success would entitle them to monetary relief. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, the Company and its officers and directors strenuously deny the Class D Directors’ claims, and will vigorously defend the matter, and continue to oppose the relief sought.

Other Litigation

In addition, the Company is a party to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, while the results of such litigation cannot be predicted with any reasonable degree of certainty, the final outcome of such known matters will not, based upon all available information, have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

N/A.

Table of Contents

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, management does not expect that such disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2012, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act), was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:

(1) Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

(2) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

(3) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, known as COSO, in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on that assessment, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
