Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for reporting of interim financial information. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NV5 Global, Inc.the Company and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company contain allall adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company as of the dates and for the periods presented. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 has been derived from those financial statements.29, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”). The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future interim period or for the full 20172019 fiscal year.

Fiscal Year

 Effective March 7, 2017,

There have been no significant changes, other than those related to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors andadopted new accounting standards below, in the Board of Directors approved a changeCompany’s accounting policies from those disclosed in our fiscal year-end and financial accounting cycle. With effect from January 1, 2017, the Company commenced reporting its financial results on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31st (whether or not in the following calendar year)2018 Form 10-K.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Leases
We adopted ASU No. 2016-2, Leases (Topic 842), with interim calendar quarters ending on the Saturday closest to the endas of such calendar quarter (whether or not in the following calendar quarter). As such, in calendar year 2017, the first fiscal quarter ended on April 1, 2017, the second fiscal quarter ended on July 1, 2017, the third fiscal quarter ended on September 30, 2017, andday of the fiscal year will end on December 30, 2017.

Use2019 using the modified retrospective approach and elected not to adjust comparative periods. In addition, we elected the package of Estimates

The preparationpractical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which permits us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and the initial direct costs. We elected the practical expedient to keep leases with an initial term of financial statements12 months or less off the balance sheet and the practical expedient to account for non-lease components in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amountsa contract as part of a single lease component. Lease payments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of additional right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities of $34,186 and $34,965, respectively, as of the first day of the fiscal year 2019. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated financial statementsnet earnings and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are basedhad no impact on management’s most recent assessmentcash flows. Additionally, there was no cumulative effect of underlying facts and circumstances usingadoption on retained earnings in the most recent information available. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, and the differences could be material.

Revenue Recognition
On the consolidated financial statements relatefirst day of fiscal year 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), using the modified retrospective approach to the fair value estimates used in accounting for business combinations including the valuation of identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration, fair value estimates in determining the fair value of the Company’s reporting units for goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition on the percentage-of-completion method, allowances for uncollectible accounts and provision for income taxes.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Trade receivable balances carried by the Company are comprised of accounts from a diverse client base across a broad range of industries and areall contracts that were not collateralized. However, approximately 32% and 35% of the Company’s gross revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, are from California-based projects. The Company does not have any clients individually representing more than 10% of gross revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Furthermore, approximately 57% and 71% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, are for public and quasi-public projects. Management continually evaluates the creditworthiness of these and future clients and provides for bad debt reserves as necessary.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company considers cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable, accrued liabilities and debt obligations to meet the definition of financial instruments. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period of time between their origination and their expected realization or payment. The carrying amounts of debt obligations approximate their fair values as the terms are comparable to terms currently offered by local lending institutions for arrangements with similar terms to industry peers with comparable credit characteristics.

The Company applies the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, in the accounting for its acquisitions, which requires recognition of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values, separately from goodwill. Goodwillcompleted as of the acquisition date is measuredbeginning of fiscal year 2018. We utilize the portfolio method practical expedient, which allows companies to account for multiple contracts as a portfolio, instead of accounting for them on a contract by contract basis (commonly known as the excesscontract method). For our time and materials contracts, we apply the as-invoiced practical expedient, which permits us to recognize revenue as the right to invoice for services performed. The new standard did not materially affect our consolidated net income, financial position, or cash flows.

Performance Obligations
Some of considerationour contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and therefore, is not distinct. However, in some instances, we may also promise to provide distinct goods or services within a contract, resulting in multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract transaction price to each performance obligation using the best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. Typically, we sell a customer a specific service and use the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied as work progresses or at a point in time. Revenue on our cost-reimbursable contracts is recognized over time using direct costs incurred or direct costs incurred to date as compared to the estimated total direct costs for performance obligations because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include labor, subcontractors’ costs and other direct costs.
Gross revenue from services transferred to customers at a point in time is recognized when the customer obtains control of the asset, which is generally upon delivery and acceptance by the customer of the reports and/or analysis performed.
As of June 29, 2019, we had $563,797 of remaining performance obligations, or backlog, of which $450,889 or 80% is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months and the netmajority of the acquisition date fair values ofbalance over the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets (customer relationships, customer backlog, trade name and non-compete) is based on valuations performed to determine the fair values of such assets as of the acquisition dates. Generally, the Company engages a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in management’s determination of fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values of earn-out arrangements are included as part of the purchase price of the acquired companies on their respective acquisition dates.  The Company estimates the fair value of contingent earn-out payments as part of the initial purchase price and records the estimated fair value of contingent consideration as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the estimated fair value of contingent earn-out paymentsnext 24 months. Contracts for which work authorizations have been received are included in General and Administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statementsbacklog. Project cancellations or scope adjustments may occur, from time to time, with respect to contracts reflected in backlog. Most of Net Income and Comprehensive Income.

Several factorsour government contracts are considered when determining contingent consideration liabilities as part of the purchase price, including whether (i) the valuation of the acquisitionsmulti-year contracts for which funding is not supported solely by the initial consideration paid, and the contingent earn-out formula is a critical and material component of the valuation approach to determining the purchase price; and (ii) the former owners of the acquired companies that remain as key employees receive compensation other than contingent earn-out payments at a reasonable level compared with the compensation of other key employees.  The contingent earn-out payments are not affected by employment termination.

We review and re-assess the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities on a quarterly basis, and the updated fair value could differ materially from the initial estimates. The Company measures contingent consideration recognized in connection with business combinations at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs classified within Level 3, as defined in the accounting guidance. The Company uses a probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach as a valuation technique to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities on the acquisition date and at each reporting period. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are projections over the earn-out period, and the probability outcome percentages that are assigned to each scenario. Significant increases or decreases to either of these inputs in isolation could result in a significantly higher or lower liability with a higher liability capped by the contractual maximum of the contingent consideration liabilities. Ultimately, the liability will be equivalent to the amount paid, and the difference between the fair value estimate on the acquisition date and amount paid will be recorded in earnings (see Note 10). Adjustments to the estimated fair value related to changes in all other unobservable inputs are reported in income from operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is the excess of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination. To determine the amount of goodwill resulting from a business combination, the Company performs an assessment to determine the acquisition date fair value of the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairmentappropriated on an annual basis, therefore backlog includes only those amounts that have been funded and authorized and does not reflect the full amounts we may receive over the term of such contracts. In the case of non-government contracts, backlog includes future revenue at contract rates, excluding contract renewals or whenever events or changesextensions that are at the discretion of the client. For contracts with a not-to-exceed maximum amount, we include revenue from such contracts in circumstances indicatebacklog to the assetextent of the remaining estimated amount. Our backlog for the period beyond 12 months may be impaired. An entity has the optionsubject to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of eventsvariation from year-to-year as existing contracts are completed, delayed, or circumstances leads torenewed or new contracts are awarded, delayed, or cancelled. As a determinationresult, we believe that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include: macroeconomic and industry conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events. If the entity determines that this threshold is met, then performing the two-step quantitative impairment test is unnecessary. The two-step impairment test requires a comparisonyear-to-year comparisons of the carrying valueportion of backlog expected to be performed more than one year in the assetsfuture are difficult to assess and liabilities associated with a reporting unit, including goodwill, withnot necessarily indicative of future revenues or profitability.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts (contract liabilities) on the fair valueConsolidated Balance Sheet. The liability “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts” represents billings in excess of revenues recognized on these contracts as of the reporting unit. The Company determines fair value through multiple valuation techniques, and weightsdate. This liability is generally classified as current. Revenue recognized that was included in the results accordingly. NV5 Global is required to make certain subjective and complex judgments in assessing whether an event of impairment of goodwill has occurred, including assumptions and estimates used to determinecontract liability balance at the fair value of its reporting units. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair valuebeginning of the reporting unit, the Company would calculate the implied fair value of its reporting unit goodwill as compared to the carrying value of its reporting unit goodwill to determine the appropriate impairment charge, if any. The Company has elected to perform its annual goodwill impairment review on August 1 of each year. The Company historically conducts its annual impairment tests on the goodwill using the quantitative method of evaluating goodwill.

Identifiable intangible assets primarily include customer backlog, customer relationships, trade namesfiscal year was $2,013 and non-compete agreements. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. If an indicator of impairment exists, the Company compares the estimated future cash flows of the asset, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, then impairment, if any, is measured as the difference between fair value and carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. In accordance with the FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share, the effect of potentially dilutive securities is not considered during periods of loss or if the effect is anti-dilutive. The weighted average number of shares outstanding in calculating basic earnings per share$6,435 for the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019, respectively and 2016 exclude 560,689$19 and 434,082 non-vested restricted shares, respectively, issued since 2010.

In October 2011, the Company’sour stockholders approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, which was subsequently amended and restated in March 2013 (as amended, the “2011 Equity Plan”). The 2011 Equity Plan provides directors, executive officers, and other employees of the Company with additional incentives by allowing them to acquire ownership interest in the business and, as a result, encouraging them to contribute to the Company’s success. The CompanyWe may provide these incentives through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units, and other cash-based or stock-based awards. As of September 30, 2017, 826,305June 29, 2019, 1,399,663 shares of common stock are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2011 Equity Plan.

Note 13 14– Income Taxes

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendments in this update require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The Company adopted ASU 2015-17 as of January 1, 2017 and retrospectively applied ASU 2015-17 to all periods presented.

As of January 1, 2017, the Company reclassified $2,173 of deferred tax assets from "Current assets" to "Non-current liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016, the Company29, 2018, we had net non-current deferred income tax liabilities of $22,084$18,708 and $6,197,$16,224, respectively. No valuation allowance against the Company’sour deferred income tax assets is needed as of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018 as it is more-likely-than-not that the positions will be realized upon settlement. Deferred income tax liabilities primarily relate to intangible assets and accounting basis adjustments where the Company haswe have a future obligation for tax purposes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of approximately $15,567 in conjunction with the purchase price allocation of B&C, RDK and H&K as a result of the intangibles acquired in the acquisitions.

The difference between the effective income2018. Our tax rate and the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate is principally due to the federal domestic production activities deduction and research and development credits. Furthermore, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a reduction in income tax expense of $114 and $974, respectively, relating to theprovision includes an income tax benefit received in conjunction withrelated to the vesting of restricted stock during the periods. Also contributing to the decrease in the effective tax ratetotaling $2,294 and $2,472, respectively, for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and $1,064 and $1,114, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, is the lower effective tax rate applicable to the Asia operations purchased in the JBA acquisition at the end of 2016.

The Company evaluates2018.

We evaluate tax positions for recognition using a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, and those tax positions eligible for recognition are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon the effective settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The California Franchise Tax Board (“CFTB”) is challenging the use of certainchallenged research and development tax credits generated for the years 20052012 to 2014. Fiscal years 20052012 through 20162018 are considered open tax years in the State of California and 20132015 through 20162018 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and other state jurisdictions. During 2016,The evaluation by the Internal Revenue Service informed the Company of its interest to examine the income tax return for the tax year 2014.

 At September 30, 2017CFTB is ongoing and at June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016, the Company29, 2018, we had $770 of unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the balance$878 and $548, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $770 of tax benefits that,which if recognized would affect our effective tax rate. It is not expected that there will be a significant change in the unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months.

Note 1415– Reportable Segments

Note 16 – Leases
Our operating leases consist of various office facilities, which we lease from unrelated parties. We use a portfolio approach to account for such leases due to the similarities in characteristics and apply an incremental borrowing rate equal to the interest rate of our existing secured line of credit. Our office leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We account for lease components (e.g. fixed payments including rent, real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs) as a single lease component. Some of our leases include one or more options to renew the lease term at our sole discretion; however, these are not included in the calculation of our lease liability or ROU lease asset because they are not reasonably certain of exercise.
We also lease vehicles through a fleet leasing program. The payments for the vehicles are based on the terms selected. We have determined that it is reasonably certain that the leased vehicles will be held beyond the period in which the entire capitalized value of the vehicle has been paid to the lessor. As such, the capitalized value is the delivered price of the vehicle. Our vehicle leases are classified as financing leases.

Tax credit.

We are currently under examination by the CFTB about certain research and development tax credits generated for the years 2005 to 2014. Fiscal years 2005 through 2016 are considered open tax years in the Stateallocation.

Backlog
As of California and 2013 through 2016 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and other state jurisdictions. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016,June 29, 2019, we had $770$563,797 of unrecognized tax benefits related to this matter.

Backlog.

Asremaining performance obligations, or backlog, of September 30, 2017, we had approximately $274,500 of gross revenue backlogwhich $450,889 or 80% is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months compared to gross revenue backlogand the majority of approximately $220,800 as of December 31, 2016.the balance over the next 24 months. We include in backlog only those contracts for which funding has been provided and work authorizations have been received. We cannot guarantee that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. In addition, project cancellations or scope adjustments may occur, from time to time, with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog. For example, certain of our contracts with the U.S. federal government and other clients are terminable at the discretion of the client, with or without cause. These types of backlog reductions could adversely affect our revenue and margins. Accordingly, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of our future earnings.

Segments.

Our Chief Executive Officer is the chief operating decision maker and operations are organized the Company into two operating and reportable segments: Infrastructure (INF), which
Infrastructure (INF) - includes our engineering, civil program management, and construction quality assurance, testing and inspection practices
Building, Technology & Sciences (BTS) includes our energy, environmental and buildings program management practices
For additional information regarding our engineering, civil program management, and construction quality assurance practices; and Building, Technology & Sciences (BTS) (formerly known as Building, Energy & Sciences (BES)), which includes our energy and environmental practices as well as buildings program management. 

Components of Income and Expense

Revenues

We enter into contracts with our clients that contain two principal types of pricing provisions: cost-reimbursable and fixed-price. The majority of our contracts are cost-reimbursable contracts that fall under the relatively low-risk subcategory of time and materials contracts.

Cost-reimbursable contracts. Cost-reimbursable contracts consistreportable segments, see "Reportable Segments" of the following:

• 

Time and materials contracts are common for smaller scale professional and technical consulting and certification services projects. Under these types of contracts, there is no predetermined fee. Instead, we negotiate hourly billing rates and charge our clients based upon actual hours expended on a project. In addition, any direct project expenditures are passed through to the client and are typically reimbursed. These contracts may have a fixed-price element in the form of an initial not-to-exceed or guaranteed maximum price provision.

Cost-plus contracts are the predominant contracting method used by U.S. federal, state, and local governments. These contracts provide for reimbursement of the actual costs and overhead (predetermined rates) we incur, plus a predetermined fee.

• 

Fixed-unit contracts typically require the performance of an estimated number of units of work at an agreed price per unit, with the total payment under the contract determined by the actual number of units performed, over a fixed construction schedule. In most cases, we can bill additional fees if the schedule is modified and lengthened.


For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, cost-reimbursable contracts represented approximately 95% and 96%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Fixed-price contracts. Fixed-price contracts also consist of the following:

• 

Lump-sum contracts typically require the performance of all of the work under the contract for a specified lump-sum fee, subject to price adjustments if the scope of the project changes or unforeseen conditions arise. Many of our lump-sum contracts are negotiated and arise in the design of projects with a specified scope and project deliverables.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, lump-sum contracts represented approximately 5% and 4%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Revenues from engineering services are recognized in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues under cost-reimbursable contracts are recognized when services are performed or on the percentage-of-completion method. Revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method. Revenues recognized on the percentage-of-completion method are generally measured by the direct costs incurred"Notes to date as compared to estimated costs incurred which represents approximately 24% and 14% of revenues recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Direct Costs of Revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization)

Direct costs of revenues consist primarily of that portion of technical and non-technical salaries and wages incurred in connection with fee generating projects. Direct costs of revenues also include production expenses, sub-consultant services, and other expenses that are incurred in connection with our fee generating projects. Direct costs of revenues exclude that portion of technical and non-technical salaries and wages related to marketing efforts, vacations, holidays, and other time not spent directly generating fees under existing contracts. Such costs areConsolidated Financial Statements" included in operating expenses. Additionally, payroll taxes, bonuses, and employee benefit costs for all of our personnel, facilities costs, and depreciation and amortization are included in operating expenses since no allocation of these costs is made to direct costs of revenues. We expense direct costs of revenues when incurred.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses include the costs of the marketing and support staffs, other marketing expenses, management and administrative personnel costs, payroll taxes, bonuses and employee benefits for all of our employees and the portion of salaries and wages not allocated to direct costs of revenues for those employees who provide our services. Operating expenses also include facility costs, depreciation and amortization, professional services, legal and accounting fees, and administrative operating costs. We expense operating costs when incurred.

Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012

We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Act, and we utilize certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies. For example, we did not have to provide an auditor’s attestation report on our internal controls in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 as otherwise required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The JOBS Act also permits us, as an “emerging growth company,” to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have chosen to “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards when they are required to be adopted by issuers. This decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The

For a discussion of our financial conditioncritical accounting estimates, see “Management’s Discussion and resultsAnalysis of operationsFinancial Condition and Results of Operations” that is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. During the preparation of these financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of our analysis form the basis for making assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and the impact of such differences may be material to our financial statements. The more significant estimates affecting amounts reportedincluded in the consolidated financial statements relate to the fair value estimates used in accounting for business combinations (including the valuation of identifiable intangible assets) and contingent consideration, fair value estimates in determining the fair value of the Company’s reporting units for goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition on the percentage-of-completion method, allowances for uncollectible accounts and provision for income taxes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we did not experience any significant changes in estimates or judgments inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on2018 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Net Revenues is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. GrossGross revenues include sub-consultant costs and other direct costs which are generally pass-through costs. The Company believes that Net Revenues, which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry, enhances investors’ ability to analyze our business trends and performance because it substantially measures the work performed by our employees.

June 30, 2018.

Gross and Net Revenues.

Our consolidated gross revenues increased approximately $31,172 and $78,170by $23,956, or approximately 51.9% and 48.6%, for23% in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 compared to the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2018. Our consolidated net revenues increased approximately $27,035 and $64,630by $15,272, or approximately 56.4% and 49.6% for18% in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 compared to the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2018. The increasesincrease in gross and net revenues arewas primarily due primarily to organic growth from our existing platform as well as the contribution from various acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increases in gross revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, includes gross revenues of $21,316 and $35,524, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2017. The increase in net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, includes net revenues of $17,164 and $27,223, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2017. Also contributingsubsequent to the increases in net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is an increased utilizationsecond quarter of our billable employees and reduction of sub-consultants used to perform services in 2017.2018. The growth in revenues was primarily attributable to increases in energythe following:
Energy distribution services; construction materials testingservices
Infrastructure engineering services
Energy and engineering services;environmental services
Civil and building program and construction management services. However, the increases in gross and net revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were partially offset by reductions in revenues related to project delays due to record rainfall and hurricanes affecting our California, Florida and Texas projects. We are currently unaware of any long-term delays in current projects and therefore are not anticipating such to influence future revenues. Such revenues could be affected by changes in economic conditions and the impact thereof on our public and quasi-public sector funded projects.

Gross Profit.

Profit

As a percentage of gross revenues, our gross profit margin was 51.2%48% and 50.1%49% for the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and June 30, 2017, respectively,2018, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was due to an increased use of sub-consultants as well as higher other direct costs in 2019 compared to 46.0% and 47.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. Gross profit includes direct costs of contracts such as direct labor and all costs incurred in connection with and directly for the benefit of client contracts. The level of direct costs of contracts may fluctuate between reporting periods due to a variety of factors, including the amount of sub-consultant costs we incur during a period. On those projects where we are responsible for subcontract labor or third-party materials and equipment, we reflect the amounts of such items in both gross revenues and costs. To the extent that we incur a significant amount of pass-through costs in a period, our direct costs of contracts are likely to increase as well.

Operating expenses.

Our operating expenses increased approximately $15,606 and $38,179,$10,491, or 70.4% and 60.3%25% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,June 29, 2019 compared to the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2018. The increaseincreases in operating expenses forwere primarily due to increases in payroll related costs of

$4,998, general and administrative costs of $2,638 and depreciation and amortization of $2,438. The increases in costs support our increases in revenues and are related primarily to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 include operating expenses of $17,410 and $28,677, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2017. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, acquisition related expenses were approximately $315 and $892, respectively, compared to approximately $8 and $439 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Also contributing to the increase in operating costs is the increased amortization of intangible assets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, amortization of intangible assets was approximately $3,022 and $7,522, respectively, compared to $1,189 and $3,077 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. Operating expenses typically fluctuate as a result of changes in headcount (both corporate and field locations) and the amount of spending required to support our professional services activities, which normally require additional overhead costs.

Interest expense.

Our interest expense increased $443 and $821 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, comparted to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to the increase in outstanding borrowings during these periods.

Our consolidated net revenues increased by $28,807, or 18% in the six months ended June 29, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross and net revenues was primarily due to the contribution from various acquisitions completed subsequent to the second quarter of 2018. The growth in revenues was attributable to increases in the following:

Energy distribution services
Infrastructure engineering services
Energy and environmental services
Civil and building program management services
Gross Profit
As a percentage of gross revenues, our gross profit margin was 48% and 49% for the six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was due to an increased use of sub-consultants as well as higher other direct costs in 2019 compared to 2018.
Operating expenses
Our operating expenses increased $18,180, or 22% for the six months ended June 29, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increases in operating expenses were primarily as a result of increases in payroll related costs of $8,778, general and administrative costs of $3,966 and depreciation and amortization of $4,754. The increases in costs support our increases in revenues and are related primarily to the operating expenses of our acquired entities.
Income taxes
Our consolidated effective income tax rate of 36.9%was 24.7% and 36.8%25.0% for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and June 30, 2016,2018, respectively. The difference between the effective incomeOur tax rate and the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate is principally due to the federal domestic production activities deduction and research and development credits. Furthermore, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded a reduction in income tax expense of $114 and $974 relating to theprovision includes an income tax benefit received in conjunction withrelated to the vesting of restricted stock during the period. Also contributing to the decrease in the effective tax ratetotaling $2,472 for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and $1,114 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, is the lower effective tax rate applicable to the Asia operations purchased in the JBA acquisition at the end of 2016.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are exposed to certain market risks from transactions that are entered into during the normal course of business. We have not entered into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. We have no significant market risk exposure to interest rate changes related to the promissory notes related to acquisitionacquisitions since these contain fixed interestrates. Our only debt subject to interest rate risk is the Senior Credit Facility which rates are variable, at our option, tied to a Eurocurrency rate equal to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus an applicable rate or a base rate denominated in U.S. dollars. Interest rates are subject to change based on our Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of September 30, 2017, theJune 29, 2019, there was $10,000 outstanding balance on the Senior Credit Facility was $42,000.Facility.

This material weakness related solely to internal control deficiencies over the initial set up of project contracts in our project management system and adequate documentation to support the analysis of certain percentage of completion projects. The material weakness described herein did not result in a material misstatement to the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements, nor in the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018.
The Company has made progress toward remediating this material weakness (as described below under “Remediation Status of Reported Material Weakness”). As of June 29, 2019, the Company had not completed its remediation.

Based on that evaluation,Although our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
