2. Sale of State and Local Government Consulting Practice
In March 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Saber Solutions, Inc. to sell the assets and certain liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice, which is included in the Public Sector segment for reporting purposes. Proceeds from the sale, which consummated on June 1, 2006 were approximately $31,376 resulting in a pre tax loss of $285.
The following are the financial results for the state and local government consulting practice for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

COVANSYS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The income (loss) from the state and local government practice includes costs directly attributable to the business. Certain operating expenses which are indirectly attributable to the business are centrally managed at the corporate level and have not been allocated.
The agreement also requires the Company to provide a certain level of services to the buyer from its operations in India at below market rates through May 2007. A portion of the proceeds from the sale have been deferred, representing the number of hours to be provided times the difference in market rates and contractual rates. The amount will be recognized as additional revenue as the hours are consumed by the buyer. At June 30, 2006 the amount deferred is approximately $2,504. The agreement also requires the Company to provide performance bonds for various contracts that were transferred as part of the transaction. The buyer is required to reimburse the Company for the premiums relating to maintaining the bonds. Total performance bonds outstanding at June 30, 2006 related to the state and local government consulting practice was approximately $19,485.
3. Income Taxes
The Company has provided federal, foreign and state income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the anticipated effective tax rate for fiscal years 2006 and 2005. The Company’s tax rate is impacted by permanent items such as Subpart F income and nondeductible travel and entertainment expenses as well as the mix between domestic and foreign earnings.
Realization of deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s future deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income. On a quarterly basis, management assesses whether it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
The Company has six business units in India which are entitled to a tax holiday for 10 consecutive years commencing with the year the business unit started producing computer software or until the Indian tax year ending March 31, 2009, whichever is earlier. As the tax holiday expires, the Company’s overall effective tax rate will be negatively impacted.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 was impacted by the evaluation of recorded tax reserves based on estimated tax exposures resulting in an increase in the tax provision of $680 in the second quarter of 2006 and a reduction in the tax provision of $94 in the first six months of 2006. The effective tax rate for the comparable periods in 2005 was impacted by the reversal of previously recorded tax reserves of $3,200 due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for the tax years the reserves related to as well as a charge of $500 from the reversal of deferred tax assets due to an enacted law change in the state of Ohio which will reduce the amount of net operating losses that the Company will be able to utilize in future periods.
4. Fixed Price Contracts
The Company realized approximately 38% and 39% and 39% and 36% of its revenue during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, from fixed price contracts (percentage of completion as well as fixed price IT outsourcing and maintenance). Approximately 8% and 13% and 9% and 12% of the Company’s revenue during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, was realized from fixed price contracts with respect to which we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis. These contracts expose the Company to collection risk on both billed and unbilled receivables in the event that contract milestones are not met or the client does not accept the product as delivered. In addition, the Company could incur unanticipated losses if it is necessary to increase its estimated cost to complete.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
During the first quarter of 2006, the Company received a notification from two of its Public Sector customers that they were terminating their contracts with the Company prior to the completion of all of the deliverables under the contracts. The Company negotiated a settlement with one of the customers resulting in a reduction of previously recorded revenue of $488 during the first quarter of 2006. The Company is currently in negotiations with the other customer concerning the resolution of its outstanding receivable balance of $859 as of June 30, 2006 which has been fully reserved during the second quarter of 2006.
5. Segment Information
The Company is a provider of IT services, with locations throughout North America, India and Asia, and other international locations. The chief operating decision-maker evaluates each segment’s performance based primarily on its revenue and income (loss) from operations due to the similarity of the nature of services provided to clients. The chief operating decision-maker does not evaluate segment performance based on assets. Assets, including the related depreciation and amortization expense, are managed primarily by corporate management. Under this organization the operating segments are as follows:
• | Commercial includes all global services provided to non public sector customers. Commercial includes application services for maintenance and development outsourcing (AMD/O), retail, healthcare, distribution, manufacturing, financial services, telecommunications, utilities, e-business, packaged software implementation and other services. | |
• | Public Sector includes all services provided to the federal government and domestic state governments. The Company sold the assets and certain liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice on June 1, 2006 (See Note 2). Public Sector continues to include business process outsourcing services in the United States and the development and implementation of services related to certain federal government programs. | |
• | Other consists primarily of the labor and supporting expenses for the Corporate functions, depreciation and amortization expenses and lease expenses for corporate headquarters. |
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

6. Common Stock Repurchase Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company repurchased 957,481 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $13,341. Through June 30, 2006, the Company has repurchased 12,795,657 shares of its common stock for cash at a total cost of $160,124. At June 30, 2006, 3,204,343 shares remain available for purchase under the board of directors authorization.
7. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share, as amended by Emerging Issues Task force (“EITF”) Issue 03-6 by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The calculation of dilutive net income (loss) per share excludes the following common stock equivalents for the respective periods because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Average number of stock options outstanding | 699,962 | 845,833 | 888,267 | 870,622 |
8. Stock Option Plans
The Company maintains a stock option plan (the plan). Under the plan, eligible employees and director’s may be granted either incentive stock options (ISOs) or non-incentive stock options (NISOs) at the discretion of the compensation committee of the Board of Directors. At June 30, 2006, there were 13,247,454 shares of common stock authorized for grant under the plan. Options under the plan are granted with exercise prices equal to the fair value of common stock on the date of grant. The options vest over periods determined by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), “Share Based Payment” using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 includes compensation cost for all share based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123 and the compensation cost for all share based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R). The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to determine fair value. Results for prior periods have not been restated.
As a result of adopting Statement 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 are $420 and $393 and $817 and $763 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share based compensation under APB No. 25. As of June 30, 2006 unrecognized compensation expense was $3,877 to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.25 years.
Prior to the adoption of Statement 123(R), the Company reported all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Statement 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of compensation cost recognized for these options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. The excess tax benefit of $310 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 classified as a financing cash

inflow would have been reported as an operating cash inflow if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R).
The fair value of stock options granted was estimated using the Black-Sholes option pricing model. A summary of the assumptions used during 2006 and 2005 in determining the fair value of options follows:
2006 | 2005 | |||||||
Expected volatility | 44.1 | % | 44.0 | % | ||||
Expected option life in years | 4 | 4 | ||||||
Expected dividend yield | 0 | % | 0 | % | ||||
Risk free interest rate | 5.0 | % | 4.0 | % |
Application of the Black-Sholes option pricing model involves assumptions that are judgemental and affect compensation expense. Historical information was the primary basis for the selection of expected volatility, expected option life and expected dividend yield. The risk free interest rate was based on yields of U.S. Treasury issues.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following section should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes appearing in this Form 10-Q. With the exception of statements regarding historical matters and statements concerning our current status, certain matters discussed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” or “intend” and similar expressions. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such material differences include impact of internal control weaknesses, variability of operating results, failure to recruit, train and retain skilled IT professionals, changes in estimates on fixed price projects, exposure to regulatory, political and general economic conditions, short term nature and termination provisions of contracts, competition in the IT services industry, economic conditions unique to clients in specific industries, the success of the Company to negotiate contract renewals at comparable terms, public sector budget constraints, limited protection of intellectual property rights, infringement by our services on the property rights of others, legal liability and damage to our professional reputation from claims made against our work, and risks related to merger, acquisition and strategic investment strategy.
Overview
We are a global technology services company, with a focus on industry-specific solutions, strategic outsourcing and integration solutions. We address the most challenging technology issues companies are facing through a unique onsite, offsite, offshore delivery model that helps clients achieve rapid deployment and reduced costs. We provide high-level subject matter expertise and solutions to a broad base of clients in retail, healthcare, distribution, manufacturing, financial services, telecommunications and utilities. In addition, the Company provides services and solutions to select public sector clients. We apply our industry-specific knowledge to deliver a wide range of outsourcing and integration services, including: application maintenance and development outsourcing (AMD/ O); custom application development; e-business services; packaged software implementation, upgrades and enhancements; and other services. Our strategy is to establish long-term client relationships and to secure additional engagements with existing clients by providing quality services and by being responsive to client needs.
We generally assume responsibility for project management and may bill the client on either a time-and-materials or fixed-price basis. We recognize revenue on time-and-materials engagements as the services are performed and after we have a signed contract. On fixed-price engagements, we recognize revenue under the percentage of completion method except for fixed-price outsourcing contracts where we recognize revenue ratably over the applicable period. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, approximately 38% and 39% and 39% and 36%, respectively, of our total revenue were generated from fixed-price engagements. Following the sale of certain assets and liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice, the percentage of the Company’s revenue from fixed price contracts and fixed price contracts with respect to which we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis will approximate 33% and 3%, respectively.
Our most significant cost is project personnel cost, which consists primarily of salaries, wages and benefits for our IT professionals. We strive to maintain our gross profit margin by controlling project costs and managing salaries and benefits relative to billing rates. We use a human resource management team to ensure that IT professionals are quickly placed on assignments to minimize nonbillable time and are placed on assignments that use their technical skills and allow for maximum billing rates.
In an effort to sustain our growth and profitability, we have made and continue to make substantial investments in our infrastructure, including: (1) development centers in the United States and India; (2) system methodologies; and (3) internal systems.
In March 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Saber Solutions, Inc. to sell the assets and certain liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice, which is included in the Public Sector
14
Table of Contents
segment for reporting purposes. Proceeds from the sale, which consummated on June 1, 2006 were $31.4 million resulting in a pre tax loss of $.3 million. The state and local government consulting practice had the following results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

The income (loss) from the state and local government consulting practice includes costs directly attributable to the business. Certain operating expenses which are indirectly attributable to the business are centrally managed at the corporate level and have not been allocated.
The agreement also requires the Company to provide a certain level of services to the buyer from its operations in India at below market rates through May 2007. A portion of the proceeds from the sale have been deferred, representing the number of hours to be provided times the difference in market rates and contractual rates. The amount will be recognized as additional revenue as the hours are consumed by the buyer. At June 30, 2006, the amount deferred is approximately $2.5 million. The agreement also requires the Company to provide performance bonds for various contracts that were transferred as part of the transaction. The buyer is required to reimburse the Company for the premiums relating to maintaining the bonds. Total performance bonds outstanding at June 30, 2006 related to the state and local government consulting practice was approximately $19.5 million.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We regularly evaluate and discuss with our Audit Committee the accounting policies and estimates we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method, impairment assessments of goodwill and other long-lived assets, realization of deferred tax assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and litigation related contingencies. These estimates are based on historical experience, project management, and various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable given the particular facts and circumstances. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has defined “critical accounting policies” as those that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies discussed below. We have other significant accounting policies, which also involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are integral to understanding our results of operations. For a complete discussion of all significant accounting policies, see Note 1 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2005 Form 10-K.
The following is an overview discussion of our critical accounting policies.
Revenue Recognition.We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, for our time-and-materials and fixed price outsourcing contracts. For those service contracts which are billed on a time and materials basis, we recognize revenue as the services are performed. In our time and materials contracts our effort, measured by our time incurred, represents the contractual milestones or output measure which is the contractual earnings pattern. For our fixed price IT outsourcing, maintenance contracts and
15
Table of Contents
transaction processing, we recognize revenue ratably over the applicable outsourcing or maintenance period as the services are performed continuously over the contract period.
For our contracts to design, develop or modify complex information systems based upon the client’s specifications, we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis in accordance with Statement of Position 81-1. The percentage of completion is determined by relating the actual cost of labor performed to date to the estimated total cost of labor for each contract. Changes in estimated costs to complete as a result of the subjectivity inherent in estimating the costs to complete could be unfavourable and change the estimates of the ultimate profitability on these projects. Such revisions, which may result in increases or decreases to revenue and income, are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which they are first identified. If the estimate indicates a loss on a particular contract, a provision is made for the entire estimated loss without reference to the percentage of completion.
Covansys periodically enters into contracts that includemultiple-element arrangements, which may include any combination of services, software, support/ maintenance, and there-sale of hardware or software. Contracts entered into after June 30, 2003 containing multiple elements or deliverables are segmented into separate units of accounting where the separate elements represent separate earnings processes in accordance with EITF 00-21.
Revenue is allocated among the elements based on the relative fair values of the elements and is recognized in accordance with our policies for the separate elements unless, as required by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, the undelivered elements are essential to the functionality of the delivered elements. In circumstances where an undelivered element is essential to the functionality of the delivered element, no revenue is recognized for the delivered element until the undelivered element is delivered.
Retainages, which are not material for any of the periods presented, are included in revenue earned in excess of billings in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue earned in excess of billings is primarily comprised of revenue recognized on certain contracts in excess of contractual billings on such contracts.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets, including property and equipment when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from expected future pre-tax cash flows of the related asset group or operating segment. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.
Computer Software.We perform research to develop software for various business applications. The costs of such research are charged to expense when incurred. When the technological feasibility of the product is established, subsequent costs are capitalized in accordance with SFAS 86 “Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” Capitalized software costs are amortized on aproduct-by-product basis. Amortization is recorded on the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product, generally five years, commencing when such product is available. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross product revenue, estimated economic product lives and changes in software and hardware technology. These assumptions are reevaluated and adjusted as necessary at the end of each accounting period. Management reviews the valuation and amortization of capitalized development costs. We periodically consider the value of future cash flows attributable to the capitalized development costs in evaluating potential impairment of the asset. Amounts charged to expense for research and development of computer software were not material in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 or 2005.
Income Taxes.The effective tax rate is driven in part by the impact of foreign tax rates on foreign earnings being different than domestic tax rates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
16
Table of Contents
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Realization of deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s future deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income. On a quarterly basis, management assesses whether it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2006, the Company had cash and short-term investments of $114.6 million. The Company funds its operations and working capital needs through internally generated funds. Cash provided from operations in the first six months of 2006 was $18.7 million which included the use of cash for working capital of $3.2 million.
Investing activities provided cash of $20.4 million. The sale of the assets and certain liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice and a portion of its investment in Fortune Infotech to Fidelity provided cash proceeds of approximately $33.5 million. This amount was partially offset by capital expenditures of $8.8 million, principally for the enhancement and development of the Company’s offshore software development centers.
To facilitate future cash flow needs, the Company has a credit facility which provides for borrowings or standby and commercial letters of credit up to $75.0 million through December 28, 2010.
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants which require the Company to maintain a certain interest, leverage ratio and a minimum total capitalization. At June 30, 2006, the Company was in compliance with these ratios. At June 30, 2006, the Company had no borrowings and $5.5 million in outstanding letters of credit under this Credit Agreement.
Financing activities used $10.9 million in cash. Repurchase of common stock under the Board of Directors authorized repurchase proposal used $13.3 million in cash which was partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and related tax benefit of $2.4 million.
The Company has no off-balance sheet transactions.

Revenue.Revenue was $118.0 million and $108.7 million in the second quarter of 2006 and 2005 respectively and $227.8 million and $213.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 respectively. Revenue from the commercial segment was $97.3 million in the second quarter of 2006, a 22.9% increase from 2005 revenue of $79.2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, commercial segment revenue was $185.7 million, a 17.9% increase over 2005 revenue of $157.5 million. Included in 2005 revenue was $3.5 million from work performed in 2004 but because the Company had not yet received a contract for those services, revenue could not be recognized until receipt of the contract in the first quarter of 2005. Also included in revenue in the second quarter and first six months of 2005 was revenue of $4.0 million and $8.1 million, respectively from a development contract in India operated by the Company that was sold during the fourth quarter of 2005. Revenue growth in 2006 was driven by growth from existing customers including growth from the Company’s Master Services Agreement with FIS, new customer relationships since the first quarter of 2005 as well as revenue from acquisitions made in 2005.
Public sector revenue declined from $29.5 million in the second quarter of 2005 to $20.6 million in the comparable period in 2006 and also declined from $55.4 million in the first six months of 2005 to $42.0 million in the first six months of 2006. Effective June 1, 2006 the Company sold the assets and certain liabilities of its state and local government consulting practice. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information concerning this transaction. Public Sector continues to include business process outsourcing services in the United States and the development and implementation of services related to certain federal government programs. In addition to the sale, the decrease in revenue was driven by a slowdown in the number of contracts awarded to the Company during this period and adjustments to the estimates of costs to complete on certain fixed price contracts which results in a reduction of previously recognized revenue at the time the estimates are modified. Also the second quarter and first six months of 2006 had adjustments to the previously recorded revenue of $.9 million and $1.4 million respectively from contracts that were terminated by two customers prior to completion of all the deliverables under the respective contracts. Partially affecting the declines in revenue was an increase in revenue from the Company’s business process outsourcing practice from the ramp up in the number of transactions processed in 2006.
Gross Profit. Gross Profit in the second quarter of 2006 was $33.1 million or 28.1% of revenue compared with $30.4 million or 28.0% of revenue in the second quarter of 2005. Gross profit for the first six months of 2006 was $57.3 million or 25.2% of revenue compared with gross profit in the first six months of 2005 of $60.7 million or 28.5% of revenue. Commercial segment gross profit was $28.7 million and $51.6 million or 29.5% and 27.8% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared with $24.3 million and $50.6 million or 30.7% and 32.1% of revenue for the comparable 2005 periods. The improvement in gross
18
Table of Contents
profit in the second quarter of 2006 is driven in part by higher utilization and higher revenues from new and existing customer relations. Gross profit in the first six months of 2005 was benefited by $3.5 million from work performed in 2004 but because the Company had not received a contract for those services, revenue and the corresponding gross profit could not be recognized until the receipt of the contract in the first quarter of 2005. In addition, utilization was somewhat higher in the first six months of 2005. Gross profit in Public Sector was $5.0 million and $7.3 million or 24.4% and 17.5% of revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared with $7.1 million and $12.4 million or 24.2% and 22.3% of revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005. Gross profit in 2006 was negatively impacted by performance on several fixed price projects as well as the reversal of previously recorded revenue on terminated contracts as discussed above and in Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Gross profit was improved in 2006 by increased revenue from the Company’s business process outsourcing practice.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses were $18.7 million and $18.1 million in the second quarter of 2006 and 2005, respectively or 15.9% and 16.7% of revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, selling, general and administrative expenses were $37.4 million and $37.0 million or 16.4% and 17.4% of revenue. The improvement in terms of a percentage of revenue are driven by substantially lower professional fees associated with the consultation and external auditing related to Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 and the annual financial statement audit, partially offset by higher employee related costs in both the U.S. and India. In addition 2005 included a charge of $.3 million for lease termination costs.
Interest Expense. Interest expense of $.3 and $.5 million was recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 respectively, on $17.5 million of notes issued in connection with the FIS/CDR transaction in 2004 and fees in connection with the credit agreement.
Other Income, Net. Other income, net represents interest earned and realized gains and losses from the sale of short-term investments and cash equivalents and foreign currency transaction and translation gains and losses. Foreign currency fluctuations during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 resulted in a foreign currency translation gains of approximately $1.1 and $.9 million, respectively, from the remeasurement of nonfunctional currency net asset positions into the functional currency of the respective foreign subsidiary. Comparable amounts for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 were foreign currency translation losses of $.3 million and $.1 million, respectively.
Provisions for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2006 was 35.3% and 30.6%. Both periods were impacted by the evaluation of recorded reserves based on estimated tax exposures resulting in an increase in reserves of $.7 million in the second quarter of 2006 and an overall reduction in reserves of $.1 million in the first six months of 2006. The effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2005 was 7.9% and 19.8%, respectively. The tax rate in both periods was impacted by the reversal of previously recorded tax reserves of $3.2 million due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for the tax years the reserves related to as well as a charge of $.5 million from the reversal of deferred tax assets due to an enacted law change in the State of Ohio which will reduce the amount of net operating losses that the Company will be able to utilize in future periods.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2006 the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with FAS 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of the Interpretation effective January 1, 2007. The Company has not yet completed its assessment of the affect of adoption of the Interpretation on the Company’s financial statements.

Commitments, Contingencies and Potential Liability to Clients
The Company is, from time to time, party to ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the Company’s business. After discussion with its legal counsel, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any existing matter will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition, many of the Company’s engagements involve projects that are critical to the operations of its clients’ businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. The Company attempts to contractually limit its liability for damages arising from errors, mistakes, omissions or negligent acts in rendering its services. The Company has undertaken engagements for which the Company guarantees its performance based upon defined client specifications on delivery dates. Certain engagements have required the Company to obtain a performance bond from a licensed surety, to guarantee performance, and to post the performance bond with the client. The Company intends to satisfy all of its performance obligations with its clients and does not anticipate defaulting on any of these performance bonds or letters of credit.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk for the effect of foreign currency fluctuations and interest rate changes. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk is set forth below and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign currency fluctuations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 resulted in a translation gain (loss) of approximately $1.1 million and $.9 million, and $(.3) million and $(.1) million respectively, from the remeasurement of nonfunctional currency net asset positions into the functional currency of the respective foreign subsidiary. The Company may use derivatives from time to time to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations. The Company had no outstanding derivative position as of June 30, 2006 or December 31, 2005. The Company does not speculate in foreign currency.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash and short-term investment portfolio, which was $114.6 million as of June 30, 2006. All of our short-term investments are designated as available-for-sale and, accordingly, are presented at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. A portion of our short term investments are in mutual funds. Mutual funds may have their fair market value adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, and we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are, from time to time, involved in litigation and various legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any such pending matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. We believe that we have adequate defenses against the legal allegations levied against us and intend to defend these matters vigorously.
As previously disclosed, our prior independent registered public accounting firm notified us that it received a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) dated October 22, 2004 requesting certain information about us relating to the period January 1, 2001 to the present. On April 14, 2005, we received a subpoena from the Midwest Regional Office of the SEC regarding an investigation the SEC has commenced captioned “In the matter of Covansys Corp.(C-03825)”. The investigation has involved the production of various documents as well as depositions of a number of our current and former employees. While we continue to cooperate fully with the SEC in connection with its investigation, we cannot predict the duration or outcome of it.
