Explanatory Notes
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A of Standard Parking Corporation (the “Company,” “Standard,” “we” or “us”) for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013 has been filed solely to revise the disclosure in Part I. Item 4. Controls and Procedures, to reflect changes to the Company’s disclosure as to the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2013.
The Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer have provided currently dated certifications pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 in connection with this amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A; the certifications are filed as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 31.3 and 32.
This amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A sets forth the original Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013 in its entirety, except as revised in Part I. Item 4. Except for disclosures in Part I. Item 4, this amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A filing does not modify or update disclosures in the Form 10-Q, including the nature and character of such disclosures.
This Quarterly Report on includes restated consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2012, and consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. We will not file an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2012. This restatement is to reflect a correction in the manner in which the Company has accounted for deficiency payments under the Company’s agreement with the State of Connecticut (the “State”) under which the Company operates the surface parking and 3,500 garage parking spaces at Bradley International Airport located in the Hartford, Connecticut metropolitan area (the “Bradley Agreement”). Cumulative deficiency payments under the Bradley Agreement, net of reimbursements, had previously been recorded as a receivable by the Company.
At the time of the Company’s initial accounting for the Bradley Agreement in 2000, the Company’s revenue projections, as well as the projections included in the Bradley Agreement and in the feasibility study prepared by the State’s parking consultant showed that there would be sufficient funds available the State would be able to repay deficiency payments, if any, over the term of the Bradley Agreement. The Company continues to believe that the State will be able to repay and expects that the State will ultimately repay the deficiency payments made by the Company under the Bradley Agreement. However, it has now been determined that the recovery of the deficiency payments represents a contingency and, accordingly, (i) the deficiency payments made by the Company under the Bradley Agreement should have been, and should continue to be, recorded as cost of parking services in the reporting periods in which such payments were made, and (ii) the payments to the Company of the principal, interest and premium related to deficiency payments should have been, and should continue to be, recognized as a reduction of cost of parking services in the reporting periods in which such repayments were received. This approach is different from the Company’s historical practice of reporting such deficiency payments as accounts receivable and interest and premium received as interest income. The restatement of the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements to reflect its correction in accounting for deficiency payments under the Bradley Agreement is referred to herein as the “Restatement.”
For further information regarding the Restatement, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated November 13, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (the “Restatement 8-K”).
This Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s other filings, as amended, made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to December 31, 2012, including the Restatement 8-K, the Company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the Company’s amended Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013.

STANDARD PARKING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
($ In thousands except for share and per share data, unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Standard Parking Corporation (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included. Operating results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, we revised our previously issued consolidated financial statements to reflect the finalization of purchase accounting related to KCPC Holdings, Inc., a correction in accounting for our contract related to Bradley Airport, as described in Note 10 (the “Bradley Agreement”) and certain other adjustments. The financial statements presented in this report should be read in conjunction with the restated consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on November 18, 2013, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for March 31, 2013, filed on November 18, 2013, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for June 30, 2013, filed on November 18, 2013.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interest recorded in the consolidated statement of income is the interest in consolidated VIEs not held by the Company. The Company has ownership interests in thirty-eight partnerships, joint ventures or similar arrangements that operate parking facilities. Twenty-nine are VIEs and nine are voting interest model entities where the company’s ownership ranges from 20-50% and it does not control the entities. The Company consolidates those VIEs where it is the primary beneficiary and accounts for voting interest entities that it does not control using the equity method of accounting. The assets and liabilities of the VIEs are not material to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. All significant intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Financial Instruments
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Long-term debt has a carrying value that approximates fair value because these instruments bear interest at market rates.
Interest Rate Swaps
We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.
On October 25, 2012, the Company entered into Interest Rate Swap transactions (collectively, the “Interest Rate Swaps”) with each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase Bank”), Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) and PNC Bank, N.A. in an initial aggregate Notional Amount of $150,000 (the “Notional Amount”). The Interest Rate Swaps have an effective date of October 31, 2012 and a termination date of September 30, 2017. The Interest Rate Swaps effectively fix the interest rate on an amount of variable interest rate borrowings under the Credit Agreement (“the Credit Agreement”), originally equal to the Notional Amount at 0.7525% per annum plus the applicable margin rate for LIBOR loans under the Credit Agreement determined based upon the Company’s consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio. The Notional Amount is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization that coincides with quarterly prepayments of principal under the Credit Agreement. These Interest Rate Swaps are classified as cash flow hedges, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a monthly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in earnings as an increase of interest expense. As of September 30, 2013, no ineffectiveness of the hedge has been recognized. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was an asset of $621 and a liability of $794, respectively, and is included in prepaid expenses at September 30, 2013 and other long-term liabilities at December 31, 2012.
2. Acquisition
On October 2, 2012 (“Closing Date”), we completed our acquisition (the “Central Merger”) of 100% of the outstanding common shares of KCPC Holdings, Inc. (“KCPC”), which was the ultimate parent of Central Parking Corporation (“Central”) for 6,161,332 shares of our common stock and the assumption of $217,675 of Central’s debt net of cash acquired. Additionally, Central’s former stockholders will be entitled to receive cash consideration of $27,000, subject to adjustment, to be paid three years after closing to the extent it is not used to satisfy certain obligations that the Company has been indemnified for, by or from the former Central shareholders. The Company financed the acquisition through additional borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility (defined in Note 11).
Pursuant to the Central Merger agreement, we are entitled to indemnification from the former stockholders of KCPC if and to the extent Central’s combined net debt and the absolute value of Central’s working capital (as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement) (the “Net Debt Working Capital”) exceeded $285,000 as of September 30, 2012. The Net Debt Working Capital was $300,546 as of September 30, 2012 and, accordingly, the Net Debt Working Capital exceeded $285,000 by $15,546. We have made a formal indemnity claim under the Merger Agreement relating to Net Debt Working Capital.

The Company incurred certain acquisition and integration related costs associated with the transaction that were expensed as incurred and are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized $1,893 and $9,210 of these costs in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 in general and administrative expenses, respectively.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting (in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations) which requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date.
The purchase price has been allocated based on the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition. We have previously reported our preliminary purchase price allocation. We have subsequently finalized the purchase price allocation, which resulted in revision to the previously reported preliminary amounts. The revisions to the purchase price allocation were applied retrospectively back to the date of the acquisition as reflected in the Company’s restated consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10K-A filed on November 18, 2013.
The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition as previously reported based on the preliminary allocation and as finalized:

The acquired management contracts are being amortized over a weighted average life of 16 years. The favorable and unfavorable lease contracts are being amortized over their contractual lives which results in a weighted average life of 10 and 7 years, respectively. The trade names and trademarks are being amortized over 4 years. The non-compete agreements are being amortized over 1 year. The existing technology is being amortized over 4.5 years. See Note 8 for further disclosure regarding the amortization of the intangible assets.
Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill represents expected synergies with the Company’s existing operations, which include growth of new and existing customers, elimination of corporate overhead redundancies, and logistical improvements.
A single estimate of fair value results from a complex series of the Company’s judgments about future events and uncertainties and relies heavily on estimates and assumptions. The Company’s judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as assets lives, can materially impact the Company’s results of operations.
3. Stock-Based Compensation
We measure share-based compensation expense at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and the expense is recognized over the requisite employee service period (the vesting period) for awards expected to vest (considering estimated forfeitures).
The Company has an amended and restated Long-Term Incentive Plan that was adopted in conjunction with our initial public offering. On April 24, 2013, our shareholders approved an amendment to our Long-Term Incentive Plan that increased the maximum number of shares of common stock available for awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan from 2,175,000 shares to 2,975,000 shares. The Plan terminates on April 22, 2028. Forfeited and expired options under the Plan become generally available for reissuance. At September 30, 2013, 673,069 shares remained available for award under the Plan.
Stock Options and Grants
We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option grant as of the date of grant. The volatilities are based on the 90-day historical volatility of our common stock as of the grant date. The risk free interest rate is based on zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option.
There were no options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company recognized no stock-based compensation expense related to stock options for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, as all options previously granted were fully vested. As of September 30, 2013, there were no unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested options.
On April 24, 2013, the Company authorized vested stock grants to certain directors totaling 21,949 shares. The total value of the grant, based on the fair value of the stock on the grant date, was $465 and is included in general and administrative expenses.
Restricted Stock Units
In March 2008, the Company’s Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors authorized a grant of 750,000 restricted stock units that subsequently were awarded to members of our senior management team on July 1, 2008. In November 2008, an additional 5,000 restricted stock units were awarded. The restricted stock units vest primarily in one-third installments on each of the tenth, eleventh and twelfth year anniversaries of the grant date. The restricted stock unit agreements provide for accelerated vesting upon the recipient reaching their retirement age.
In October 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a grant of 191,895 restricted stock units that were awarded to our senior management team. In June 2013, an additional 4,247 restricted stock units were awarded. The restricted stock units vest in one-third installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The restricted stock unit agreements were
awarded to members of the executive team who played a key role in the due diligence and subsequent planning that led to the successful closing of the Central Merger as well as retention of the team through the integration period. The restricted stock units vest over a three-year period. Additionally in October 2012, as part of employment agreements, 30,529 restricted stock units were awarded and shall become vested on the third anniversary of the grant date.
The fair value of restricted stock units is determined using the fair value of our common stock on the date of the grant, and compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period. In accordance with the guidance related to share-based payments, we estimated forfeitures at the time of the grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting forfeitures and record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 27,000 restricted stock units vested. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 146,000 restricted stock units vested, respectively. No restricted stock units were forfeited.
The Company recognized $1,003 and $3,062 of stock-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock units for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. The Company recognized $251 and $869 of stock-based compensation expenses related to restricted stock units for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. As of September 30, 2013, there was $6,157 of unrecognized stock-based compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, related to the restricted stock units that are expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of approximately 4.0 years.
4. Net Income Per Common Share
Companies are required to present basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted daily average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted daily average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period plus dilutive potential common shares, including stock options and restricted stock units using the treasury-stock method.
A reconciliation of the weighted average basic common shares outstanding to the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding is as follows (unaudited):

5. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Adopted
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-2, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This update provides an entity with the option to make a qualitative assessment about the likelihood that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired and then determine whether it should perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendment is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 with early adoption permitted. Although the Company has not performed its annual impairment test, we adopted the guidance in 2013 and do not expect the adoption to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), which deferred the effective date for applying ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, in respect of certain provisions relating to the presentation of separate line items on the income statement for reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income into income, in order for the FASB to further evaluate this change in standard before implementation. The deferral is temporary and other provisions of ASU 2011-05 were effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of this update impacted the presentation and disclosure of the Company’s financial statements but did not impact the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This update requires additional disclosures about offsetting and related arrangements on assets and liabilities to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect of such arrangements on an entity’s financial position as reported. This amendment is effective for fiscal 2013. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of 2013 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

10. Bradley Agreement
We entered into a 25-year agreement with the State of Connecticut that expires on April 6, 2025, under which we operate the surface parking and 3,500 garage parking spaces at Bradley International Airport (“Bradley”) located in the Hartford, Connecticut metropolitan area. The Company manages the facility for which it is expected to receive a contingent management fee.
The parking garage was financed on April 6, 2000 through the issuance of $53,800 of State of Connecticut (“State”) special facility revenue bonds, representing $47,700 non-taxable Series A bonds and a separate taxable issuance of $6,100 Series B bonds. The Series B bonds were retired on July 1, 2006 according to the terms of the indenture. The Bradley Agreement provides that we deposit with a trustee for the bondholders all gross revenues collected from operations of the surface and garage parking, and from these gross revenues, the trustee pays debt service on the special facility revenue bonds outstanding, operating and capital maintenance expenses of the surface and garage parking facilities excluding our management fee discussed below, and specific annual guaranteed minimum payments to the State. Principal and interest on the Bradley special facility revenue bonds increase from approximately $3,600 in contract year 2002 to approximately $4,500 in contract year 2025. Annual guaranteed minimum payments to the State will increase from approximately $8,300 in contract year 2002 to approximately $13,200 in contract year 2024. The annual minimum guaranteed payment to the State by the trustee for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $7,917 and $7,754, respectively.
All of the cash flow from the parking facilities is pledged to the security of the special facility revenue bonds and is collected and deposited with the bond trustee. Each month the bond trustee makes certain required monthly distributions, which are characterized as “Guaranteed Payments.” To the extent the monthly gross receipts generated by the parking facilities are not sufficient for the trustee to make the required Guaranteed Payments, we are obligated to deliver the deficiency amount to the trustee. Additionally, the Guaranteed Payments are required to be paid before we are reimbursed for deficiency payments or management fees. We record deficiency payments made as additional cost of parking services.
The following is the list of Guaranteed Payments:
· Garage and surface operating expenses,
· Principal and interest on the special facility revenue bonds,
· Trustee expenses,
· Major maintenance and capital improvement deposits, and
· State Minimum Guarantee.
However, to the extent there is a cash surplus in any month during the term of the Bradley Agreement, we have the right to be repaid the principal amount of any and all deficiency payments previously made, together with actual interest expenses and a premium, not to exceed 10% of the initial deficiency payment. We calculate and record interest income and premium income along with deficiency principal repayments as a reduction of cost of parking services in the period the associated deficiency payment is received from the trustee.
Deficiency Payments
To the extent that monthly gross receipts are not sufficient for the trustee to make the required payments, we are obligated pursuant to our agreement to deliver the deficiency amount to the trustee within three business days of being notified. We are responsible for these deficiency payments regardless of the amount of utilization for the Bradley parking facilities. The deficiency payments represent contingent interest bearing advances to the trustee to cover operating cash flow requirements. To the extent sufficient funds are available in the appropriate fund, the trustee is then directed by the State to reimburse us for deficiency payments up to the amount of the calculated surplus.
The total deficiency payments we have made, net of reimbursements, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we received deficiency repayments (net of deficiency payments made) of $18 along with $60 of interest from the trustee. In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we made deficiency payments (net of repayments received) of $1,221 and received $85 for interest related to deficiency repayments from the trustee.
We believe these advances to be fully recoverable as the Construction, Financing and Operating Special Facility Lease Agreement, which governs reimbursement of Guarantor Payments, places no time restriction on the Company’s right to reimbursement. The payment of principal, interest and premium will be recorded when received. We do not directly guarantee the payment of any principal or interest on any debt obligations of the State of Connecticut or the trustee.
Compensation
In addition to the recovery of certain general and administrative expenses incurred, the Bradley Agreement provides for an annual management fee payment that is based on three operating profit tiers calculated for each year during the term of the agreement. The management fee is further apportioned 60% to us and 40% to an un-affiliated entity. To the extent that funds are available for the trustee to make a distribution, the annual management fee is paid when sufficient cash is available after the Guaranteed Payments are paid, and after the repayment of all deficiency payments, including accrued interest and premium. However, our right to the management fee accrues each year during the term of the agreement and is paid when sufficient cash is available for the trustee to make a distribution.
The annual management fee is paid after the repayment of all deficiency payments, including accrued interest and premium. Cumulative management fees of approximately $9,000 have not been recognized as of September 30, 2013, and no management fee income was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Senior Credit Facility
In connection with the Central Merger, on the Closing Date, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of America, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo Bank”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as co-syndication agents, U.S. Bank National Association, First Hawaiian Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation, as co-documentation agents, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers, and the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”).
Pursuant to the terms, and subject to the conditions, of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have made available to the Company a new secured Senior Credit Facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) that permits aggregate borrowings of $450,000 consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility of up to $200,000 at any time outstanding, which includes a letter of credit facility that is limited to $100,000 at any time outstanding, and (ii) a term loan facility of $250,000. The Senior Credit Facility matures on October 2, 2017.
The entire amount of the term loan portion of the Senior Credit Facility was drawn by the Company on the Closing Date and is subject to scheduled quarterly payments of principal based on the following annualized amounts: (i) $22,500 in the first year, (ii) $22,500 in the second year, (iii) $30,000 in the third year, (iv) $30,000 in the fourth year and (v) $37,500 in the fifth year. The Company also borrowed $72,800 under the revolving credit facility on the Closing Date. The proceeds from these borrowings were used by the Company to repay outstanding indebtedness of the Company and Central, and will also be used to pay costs and expenses related to the Central Merger and the related financing and fund ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2013, the Company had $307,383 outstanding on the Senior Credit Facility, net of discount.
Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, (i) at a rate per annum based on the Company’s consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio for the 12-month period ending as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, determined in accordance with the applicable pricing levels set forth in the Credit Agreement (the “Applicable Margin”) for LIBOR loans, plus the applicable LIBOR rate or (ii) the Applicable Margin for base rate loans plus the highest of (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (y) the Bank of America prime rate and (z) a daily rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate plus 1.0%.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain a maximum consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio of not greater than 4.5:1.0 (with certain step-downs described in the Credit Agreement). In addition, the Company is
required to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1:25:1.0 (with certain step-ups described in the Credit Agreement).
Events of default under the Credit Agreement include failure to pay principal or interest when due, failure to comply with the financial and operational covenants, the occurrence of any cross default event, non-compliance with other loan documents, the occurrence of a change of control event, and bankruptcy and other insolvency events. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders holding a majority of the commitments and outstanding term loan under the Credit Agreement have the right, among others, to (i) terminate the commitments under the Credit Agreement, (ii) accelerate and require the Company to repay all the outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement and (iii) require the Company to cash collateralize any outstanding letters of credit.
Each wholly owned domestic subsidiary of the Company (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement) has guaranteed all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities of the other guarantors and the Company arising under the Credit Agreement.
In connection with and effective upon the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement on October 2, 2012, the Company terminated its then-existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Former Credit Agreement”), dated as of July 15, 2008. There were no termination penalties incurred by the Company in connection with the termination of the Former Credit Agreement.
We are in compliance with all of our covenants as of September 30, 2013.
The weighted average interest rate on our Senior Credit Facility at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was 3.7% and 3.7%, respectively. The rate includes all outstanding LIBOR contracts, cash flow hedge effectiveness effect and letters of credit. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings, not including letters of credit, was 3.8% and 3.9% at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
At September 30, 2013, we had $59,272 of letters of credit outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, borrowings against the Senior Credit Facility aggregated $307,383 and we had $41,407 available under the Senior Credit Facility.
The Company acquired Subordinated Convertible Debentures (“Convertible Debentures”) that prior to the acquisition of Central, were convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of Central common stock. As a result of the acquisition, the subordinated debenture holders no longer have the right to convert the Convertible Debentures to common stock of the Company, but do have the right to redeem the Convertible Debentures for $19.18 cash per share upon their stated maturity (April 1, 2028) or upon acceleration or earlier repayment of the Convertible Debentures. There were no redemptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Approximately 65,375 Convertible Debentures or $1,254 (redemption value) remain outstanding at September 30, 2013.
The remaining $900 of other obligations at September 30, 2013 relates to various financing arrangements.
12. Business Unit Segment Information
Segment information is presented in accordance with a “management approach,” which designates the internal reporting used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s segments are organized in a manner consistent with which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by our CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses, and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by our CODM. Our CODM is the Company’s president and chief executive officer.
Each of the operating segments is directly responsible for revenue and expenses related to their operations including direct regional administrative costs. Finance, information technology, human resources, and legal are shared functions that are not allocated back to the four operating segments. The CODM assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about its revenue and operating income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, but does not evaluate segments using discrete asset information. There are no inter-segment transactions and the Company does not allocate interest and other income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization or taxes to operating segments. The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as for the Company as a whole.
Our business is managed based on regions administered by executive vice presidents. The following is summary of revenues (excluding reimbursed management contract revenue) and gross profit by regions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 with information related to prior periods recast to conform to the current regional alignment (unaudited):

15. Income Taxes
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized income tax expense of $2,448 on pre-tax earnings of $6,913 compared to $2,504 income tax expense on pre-tax earnings of $4,773 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized income tax expense of $4,359 on pre-tax earnings of $13,357 compared to $6,520 income tax expense on pre-tax earnings of $14,748 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The effective tax rate was approximately 32.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to approximately 44.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was favorably impacted by the discrete benefit of approximately $376 for the retroactive extension of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (“WOTC”) and other similar federal income tax credit programs that were enacted as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act in January of 2013 and approximately $214 of favorable 2012 Federal provision to return true-up adjustments. Without these discrete benefits, our effective tax rate would have been 37.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions that would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or income tax expense in future periods. The Company recognizes potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expense.
The tax years that remain subject to examination for the Company’s major tax jurisdictions at September 30, 2013 are shown below:
2007 – 2012 |
| United States—federal income tax |
|
2007 – 2012 |
| United States—state and local income tax |

16. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to litigation in the normal course of our business. The outcomes of legal proceedings and claims brought against us and other loss contingencies are subject to significant uncertainty. We accrue a charge against income when our management determines that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, we accrue for the authoritative judgments or assertions made against us by government agencies at the time of their rendering regardless of our intent to appeal. In determining the appropriate accounting for loss contingencies, we consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether an accrual should be established or adjusted. Estimating the probability that a loss will occur and estimating the amount of a loss or a range of loss involves significant judgment. In addition, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and other matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of the liability, if any, with respect to these matters will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. We maintain liability insurance coverage to assist in protecting our assets from losses arising from or related to activities associated with business operations.
17. Fair Value Measurement
The Company applies ASC 820 for fair value measurements and disclosures for its financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard requires disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value. As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s financial assets relate to Interest Rate Swaps of $621 and the Company’s financial liabilities relate to contingent acquisition consideration payments of $2,562.
The accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures includes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on observable or unobservable inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon its own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
· Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2: Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs, which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
· Level 3: Inputs that are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.
The significant inputs used to derive the fair value of the amounts due to seller include financial forecasts of future operating results, the probability of reaching the forecast and the associated discount rate. The probability of the contingent consideration ranges from 10% to 95%, with a weighted average discount rate of 11%. The following tables set forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the basis of measurement at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (unaudited):

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded adjustments to the original contingent consideration obligation recorded upon the acquisition of Gameday Management Group U.S. and Expert Parking. The adjustments were the result of using revised forecasts and updated fair value measurements that adjusted the Company’s potential earn-out payments related to the purchase of these businesses.
The Company recognized a benefit of $62 and $370 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the statement of income due to the change in fair value measurements using level three valuation techniques. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recognized a benefit of $169 and $368, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the statement of income due to the change in fair value measurements using level three valuation techniques.
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
The purchase price of business acquisitions is primarily allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition dates, with the excess recorded as goodwill. We utilize Level 3 inputs in the determination of the initial fair value. Non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, and leasehold improvements, equipment land and construction in progress are subsequently measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and recorded at fair value only when an impairment is recognized. We assess the impairment of intangible assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. The fair value of our goodwill and intangible assets is not estimated if there is no change in events or circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. We have not recorded impairment charges related to our business acquisitions.

Explanatory Note
The discussion and analysis below gives effect to the Restatement, which is to reflect a correction in the manner in which the Company has accounted for deficiency payments under the Bradley Agreement. Cumulative deficiency payments under the Bradley Agreement, net of reimbursements, had previously been recorded as an accounts receivable by the Company.
At the time of the Company’s initial accounting for the Bradley Agreement in 2000, the Company’s revenue projections as well as there would be sufficient funds available to the projections included in the Bradley Agreement and in the feasibility study prepared by the State’s parking consultant showed that the State would be able to repay deficiency payments, if any, over the term of the Bradley Agreement. The Company continues to believe that the State will be able to repay and expects that the State will ultimately repay the deficiency payments made by the Company under the Bradley Agreement. However, it has now been determined that the recovery of the deficiency payments represents a contingency and, accordingly, (i) the deficiency payments made by the Company under the Bradley Agreement should have been, and should continue to be, recorded as cost of parking services in the reporting periods in which such payments were made, and (ii) the repayments to the Company of the principal, interest and premium related to deficiency payments should have been, and should continue to be, recognized as a reduction to the cost of parking services the reporting periods in which such repayments were received. This approach is different from the Company’s historical practice of reporting such deficiency payments as accounts receivable.
On October 2, 2012, we completed our acquisition (the “Central Merger”) of Central Parking Corporation. Central, together with its affiliates, was a leading provider of parking and related services, which operated parking facilities in 38 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and provided ancillary products and services, including parking consulting, shuttle, valet, on-street and parking meter enforcement and billing and collection services. Our consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 include Central’s results of operations for the period. Our consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 do not include any of Central’s results of operations.
During September 2013, the Company finalized the purchase price allocation for the Central Merger.
Overview
Our Business
We manage parking facilities in urban markets and at airports across the United States and in four Canadian provinces. We do not own any facilities, but instead enter into contractual relationships with property owners or managers.
We operate our clients’ properties through two types of arrangements: management contracts and leases. Under a management contract, we typically receive a base monthly fee for managing the facility, and we may also receive an incentive fee based on the achievement of facility performance objectives. We also receive fees for ancillary services. Typically, all of the underlying revenue and expenses under a standard management contract flow through to our clients rather than to us. However, some management contracts, which are referred to as “reverse” management contracts, usually provide for larger management fees and require us to pay various costs. Under lease arrangements, we generally pay to the property owner either a fixed annual rent, a percentage of gross customer collections or a combination thereof. We collect all revenue under lease arrangements and we are responsible for most operating expenses, but we are typically not responsible for major maintenance, capital expenditures or real estate taxes. Margins for lease contracts vary significantly, not only due to operating performance, but also due to variability of parking rates in different cities
and varying space utilization by parking facility type and location. As of September 30, 2013, we operated approximately 80% of our locations under management contracts and approximately 20% of our locations under leases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we derived approximately 78% of our gross profit under management contracts and approximately 22% of our gross profit under leases.
In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, management’s primary focus is on our gross profit, total general and administrative expenses and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of our gross profit. Although the underlying economics to us of management contracts and leases are similar, the manner in which we are required to account for them differs. Revenue from leases includes all gross customer collections derived from our leased locations (net of parking tax), whereas revenue from management contracts only includes our contractually agreed upon management fees and amounts attributable to ancillary services. Gross customer collections at facilities under management contracts, therefore, are not included in our revenue. Accordingly, while a change in the proportion of our operating agreements that are structured as leases versus management contracts may cause significant fluctuations in reported revenue and expense of parking services, that change will not artificially affect our gross profit. For example, as of September 30, 2013, we operated approximately 80% of our locations under management contracts, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 we derived approximately 78% of our gross profit under management contracts. Only approximately 41% of total revenue (excluding reimbursed management contract revenue), however, was from management contracts because under those contracts the revenue collected from parking customers belongs to our clients. Therefore, gross profit and total general and administrative expenses, rather than revenue, are management’s primary focus.
General Business Trends
We believe that sophisticated commercial real estate developers and property managers and owners recognize the opportunity for parking and related services to be a profit generator rather than a cost center. Often, the parking experience makes both the first and the last impressions on their properties’ tenants and visitors. By outsourcing these services, they are able to capture additional profit by leveraging the unique operational skills and controls that an experienced parking management company can offer. Our ability to consistently deliver a uniformly high level of parking and related services and maximize the profit to our clients improves our ability to win contracts and retain existing locations. Our location retention, excluding Central, rate for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2013 was approximately 88%, compared to approximately 90% for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2012, which also reflects our decision not to renew, or to terminate, unprofitable contracts and divestitures required to be made by the Department of Justice in connection with the Central Merger.
Excluding Central, average gross profit per location for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 did not significantly change compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, average gross profit per location was $31.7 thousand in 2013 and $31.5 thousand in 2012.

Revenue
We recognize parking services revenue from lease and management contracts as the related services are provided. Substantially all of our revenue comes from the following two sources:
· Parking services revenue—lease contracts. Parking services revenue related to lease contracts consist of all revenue received at a leased facility, including parking receipts (net of parking tax), consulting and real estate development fees, gains on sales of contracts and payments for exercising termination rights.
· Parking services revenue—management contracts. Management contract revenue consists of management fees, including both fixed and performance-based fees, and amounts attributable to ancillary services such as accounting, equipment leasing, payments received for exercising termination rights, consulting, developmental fees, gains on sales of contracts, as well as insurance and other value-added services with respect to managed locations. We believe we generally purchase required insurance at lower rates than our clients can obtain on their own because we effectively self-insure for all liability and worker’s compensation claims by maintaining a large per-claim deductible. As a result, we have generated operating income on the insurance provided under our management contracts by focusing on our risk management efforts and controlling losses.
Management contract revenue does not include gross customer collections at the managed locations as this revenue belongs to the property owner rather than to us. Management contracts generally provide us with a management fee regardless of the operating performance of the underlying facility.
Conversions between types of contracts (lease or management) are typically determined by our client and not us. Although the underlying economics to us of management contracts and leases are similar, the manner in which we account for them differs substantially.
Reimbursed Management Contract Revenue
Reimbursed management contract revenue consists of the direct reimbursement from the property owner for operating expenses incurred under a management contract, which is reflected in our revenue.
Cost of Parking Services
Our cost of parking services consists of the following:
· Cost of parking services—lease contracts. The cost of parking services under a lease arrangement consists of contractual rental fees paid to the facility owner and all operating expenses incurred in connection with operating the leased facility. Contractual fees paid to the facility owner are generally based on either a fixed contractual amount or a percentage of gross revenue or a combination thereof. Generally, under a lease arrangement we are not responsible for major capital expenditures or real estate taxes.
· Cost of parking services—management contracts. The cost of parking services under a management contract is generally the responsibility of the facility owner. As a result, these costs are not included in our results of operations. However, our reverse management contracts, which typically provide for larger management fees, do require us to pay for certain costs, which are included in cost of parking services.
Reimbursed Management Contract Expense
Reimbursed management contract expense consists of direct reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of property owners under a management contract, which is reflected in our cost of parking services.
Gross Profit
Gross profit equals our revenue less the cost of generating such revenue. This is the key metric we use to examine our performance because it captures the underlying economic benefit to us of both lease contracts and management contracts.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include salaries, wages, payroll taxes, insurance, travel and office related expenses for our headquarters, field offices, supervisory employees, and board of directors.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is determined using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various asset classes or in the case of leasehold improvements, over the initial term of the operating lease or its useful life, whichever is shorter. Intangible assets determined to have finite lives are amortized over their remaining useful life.
Results of Operations
Segments
An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses, and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources. Our CODM is our president and chief executive officer.
Our business is managed based on regions administered by executive vice presidents. The following is a summary of revenues (excluding reimbursed management contract revenue), cost of parking services and gross profit by regions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 with information related to prior periods recast to conform to the current regional alignment.
As noted previously, the financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 do not include any of Central’s results of operations for the period due to the timing of the closing of the Central Merger on October 2, 2012. The financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 include Central’s results of operations for the periods. To help understand the operating results for these quarters, the term “Central Operations” refers to the results of Central on a stand-alone basis and the term “Standard Operations” refers to the results of the Company on a stand-alone basis and not inclusive of results from the acquired operations of Central for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Region One encompasses operations in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
Region Two encompasses event planning and transportation, our acquired valet business and our technology-based parking and traffic management systems.
Region Three encompasses operations in Canada, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.
Region Four encompasses all major airport and transportation operations nationwide.
Region Five encompasses Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, Tennessee, and Texas.
Other consists of ancillary revenue and related costs of parking or gross margin that is not specifically identifiable to a region and insurance reserve adjustments related to prior years.

Parking services revenue—lease contracts. Lease contract revenue increased $79.9 million, or 186.2%, to $122.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $42.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in lease contract revenue consisted of an increase from the Standard Operations of $2.5 million, or 5.8%, and $77.4 million from the Central Operations. The increase resulted primarily from increases in revenue from acquisitions, same and new locations, partially offset primarily by decreases in revenue from contract expirations. Same location revenue for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative periods for the two years presented, increased 7.0%. The increase in same location revenue was due to increases in monthly parking revenue of $1.4 million, short-term parking revenue of $0.9 million and other of $0.5 million.
Parking services revenue—management contracts. Management contract revenue increased $28.5 million, or 57.9%, to $77.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $49.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in management contracts revenue consisted of an increase from the Central Operations of $35.4 million, offset in part by a decrease in revenue from the Standard Operations of $6.9 million, or 14.0%. The increase resulted primarily from increases in revenue from acquisitions and new locations, which was partially offset by contract expirations and a decline in same location revenue. Same location revenue for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative periods for the two years presented, decreased 3.1%, primarily due to increased fees from reverse management locations and ancillary services.
Reimbursed management contract revenue. Reimbursed management contract revenue increased $53.9 million, or 53.4%, to $154.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $101.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted from additional reimbursements related to the Central Operations.
Lease contract revenue increased primarily due to acquisitions in regions one, two, three and five, same locations regions one and five and new locations regions one, three and four. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases in contract expirations in regions one, three and five combined with acquisitions in other. Same location revenue increases for the aforementioned regions were primarily due to increases in monthly parking, short-term and other revenue.
Management contract revenue increased primarily due to acquisitions and new locations in all five operating regions along with acquisitions in other, combined with same location revenue in region two. This increase was partially offset primarily by contract expirations in all five operating regions and decreases in same locations in regions five and other. The decrease in same location revenue was primarily due to an increase in fees from reverse management locations and ancillary services.

Cost of parking services—lease contracts. Cost of parking services for lease contracts increased $75.5 million, or 187.8%, to $115.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $40.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in cost of parking services for lease contracts consisted of an increase from the Standard Operations of $2.1 million, or 5.2%, and $73.4 million from the Central Operations. The increase resulted primarily from increases in costs from acquisitions, new locations and same locations, offset in part primarily by decreases in contract expirations. Same location costs for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative for the two years presented, increased 7.2%. Same location costs increased $2.3 million due to rent expense, primarily as a result of contingent rental payments on the increase in revenue for same locations and $0.4 million in property tax expense.
Cost of parking services—management contracts. Cost of parking services for management contracts increased $13.6 million, or 44.3%, to $44.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $30.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in cost of parking services for management contracts consisted of an increase of $18.0 million from the Central Operations partially offset by a decrease from the Standard Operations of $4.4 million, or 14.3%. The increase in costs from acquisitions and new locations was offset in part primarily from decreases in costs related to contract expirations. However, same location costs for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative for the two years presented, decreased 2.6%. The same location decrease in operating expenses for management contracts primarily resulted from decreases in costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services.
Reimbursed management contract expense. Reimbursed management contract expense increased $53.9 million, or 53.4%, to $154.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $101.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted from additional reimbursable costs related to the Central Operations.
Cost of parking services for lease contracts increased primarily due to acquisitions in regions one, two, three, five and other, same locations regions one and five, combined with new locations in regions one, three and four. This increase was partially offset primarily by contract expirations in regions one, three and five. Same location cost increased primarily due to increases in contingent rent payments on the increase in revenue and other operating costs.
The other region amounts in same location primarily represent a reduced health insurance dividend related to prior years and costs that are not specifically identifiable to a region.
Cost of parking services for management contracts increased primarily due to acquisitions and new locations in all five operating regions and same locations region two. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases in contract expirations in regions two and three, same locations in region five and other and acquisitions other. Same location cost decrease primarily resulted from decreases in costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services. The other region amounts in same location primarily represent prior year insurance reserve adjustments and costs that are not specifically identifiable to a region.

The decrease in gross profit from same location management contracts was primarily the result of increased costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services. Gross profit percentage for management contracts increased to 43.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 37.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Interest expense increased $3.7 million, or 340.8%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in borrowings on our Senior Credit Facility to fund the Central Merger.
Interest income. Interest income was $0.1 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2013 and the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Income tax expense.

An increase in our pre-tax income resulted in a $0.7 million increase in income tax expense. Our effective tax rate was 35.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 52.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 which resulted in a $0.8 million decrease in income tax expense.

Parking services revenue—lease contracts. Lease contract revenue increased $244.2 million, or 198.7%, to 367.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $122.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in lease contract revenue consisted of an increase of $233.2 million from the Central Operations and an increase of $11.0 million, or 9.0% from the Standard Operations. The increase resulted primarily from increases in revenue from acquisitions and new and same locations. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases in revenue from contract expirations and conversions. Same location revenue for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative periods for the two years presented, increased 8.4%. The increase in same location revenue was due to increases in short-term parking revenue of $5.0 million, and increases in monthly parking revenue of $2.7 million and other of $1.1 million.
Parking services revenue—management contracts. Management contract revenue increased $114.8 million, or 81.1%, to $256.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $141.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in management contract revenue consisted of an increase from the Central Operations of $122.5 million, partially offset by the decrease in revenue from the Standard Operations of $7.7 million, or 5.4%. The increase resulted primarily from increases in revenue from acquisitions and new locations, which was partially offset primarily by a decrease in contract expirations and same locations. Same location revenue for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative periods for the two years presented, decreased 1.1%, primarily due to decreased fees from reverse management locations and ancillary services. Acquisition revenue also includes a $2.7 million net benefit that resulted from the sale of contract rights.
Reimbursed management contract revenue. Reimbursed management contract revenue increased $163.6 million, or 53.0%, to $472.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $309.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted from additional reimbursements related to Central Operations.
Lease contract revenue increased primarily due to new locations and same locations in regions one, three, four and five, combined with acquisitions in regions one, two, three and five. This was partially offset primarily by decreases in contract expirations in regions one, three, four and five and conversions in region four. Same location revenue increases for the aforementioned regions were primarily due to increases in short-term and monthly parking revenue.
Management contract revenue increased primarily due to new locations and acquisitions in all five operating regions. This was partially offset primarily by contract expirations in all five operating regions, and a net decrease in same locations primarily in regions two, five and other and acquisitions other. The decreases in same location revenue were primarily due to a decrease in fees from reverse management locations and ancillary services.

Cost of parking services—lease contracts. Cost of parking services for lease contracts increased $226.3 million, or 199.4%, to $339.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $113.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in cost of parking services for lease contracts consisted of an increase from the Central Operations of $215.1 million and an increase from Standard Operations of $11.2 million, or 9.9%. The increase resulted primarily from increases in costs from acquisitions along with new and same locations. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases in contract expirations and conversions. Same location costs for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative for the two years presented, increased 9.5%. Same location costs increased $7.6 million due to rent expense, primarily as a result of contingent rental payments on the increase in revenue for same locations, payroll and payroll related costs of $1.1 million and $0.5 million related to other operating costs.
Cost of parking services—management contracts. Cost of parking services for management contracts increased $73.2 million, or 87.0%, to $157.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $84.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in cost of parking services for management contracts consisted of an increase from the Central Operations of $79.0 million partially offset by a $5.8 million, or 6.9% decrease from Standard Operations. The increase resulted primarily from increases in costs from acquisitions along with new locations. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases in contract expirations and same locations. Same location costs for those facilities, which as of September 30, 2013 are the comparative for the two years presented, decreased 3.0%. The same location decrease in operating expenses for management contracts primarily resulted from decreases in costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services.
Reimbursed management contract expense. Reimbursed management contract expense increased $163.6 million, or 53.0%, to $472.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $309.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted from additional reimbursable costs related to Central Operations.
Cost of parking services for lease contracts increased primarily due to new and same locations in regions one, three, four and five, combined with acquisitions in regions one, two, three, five and other. This increase was partially offset primarily by contract expirations in regions one, three and five, acquisitions region four and conversions in region four. Same location cost increased primarily due to increases in contingent rent payments on the increase in revenue, payroll and payroll related costs, other operating costs, offset by a favorable health insurance dividend related to prior years. The other region amounts in same location primarily represent a favorable health insurance dividend related to prior years and costs that are not specifically identifiable to a region.
Cost of parking services for management contracts increased primarily due to new locations and acquisitions in all five operating regions. This increase was partially offset primarily by decreases due to contract expirations in all five operating regions,
acquisitions other, and a net decrease in same locations primarily attributed to regions four and five. Same location cost decreases primarily resulted from increases in costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services.

Gross profit—lease contracts. Gross profit for lease contracts increased $17.9 million, or 190.4%, to $27.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $9.4 million for nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in gross profit for lease contracts consisted of an increase of $18.1 million from the Central Operations partially offset by a $0.2 million, or 2.1% decrease from the Standard Operations. Gross profit lease contract increases were primarily the result of acquisitions and new locations, partially offset primarily by contract expirations. The gross profit percentage for lease contracts decreased to 7.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 7.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The gross profit percentage decreased primarily as a result of percentage decreases in contract expirations offset in part primarily by percentage increases from new locations and acquisitions.
Gross profit—management contracts. Gross profit for management contracts increased $41.6 million, or 72.3%, to $99.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $57.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in gross profit for management contracts consisted of an increase from the Central Operations of $43.5 million partially offset by a $1.9 million, or 3.3% decrease from the Standard Operations. Gross profit for management contract increases were primarily the result of acquisitions and new locations, partially offset primarily by decreases in gross profit from contract expirations. Gross profit management contracts includes a $2.7 million net benefit that resulted from the sale of contract rights. Gross profit percentage for management contracts decreased to 38.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 41.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The gross profit percentage decreased primarily due to acquisitions and new locations.
Gross profit for lease contracts increased primarily due to acquisitions in all five operating regions and new locations in regions one and five. This increase was partially offset primarily by contract expirations in regions three and five. Gross profit lease contracts on same locations decreased primarily due to increases in rent expense and payroll and related expense in excess of revenue gains primarily from short-term and monthly parking.
Gross profit for management contracts increased primarily due to acquisitions and new locations in all five operating regions, acquisitions in other and same locations in regions one and four. This increase was partially offset primarily due to contract expirations in all five operating regions and same locations two, four, five and other in other. Gross profit for management contracts decreases on same locations were primarily the result of increases in costs associated with reverse management contracts and the cost of providing management services, in addition to decreased revenue. The other region amounts in same location primarily represent prior year insurance reserve adjustments and amounts that are not specifically identifiable to a specific region.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $31.5 million, or 72.1%, to $75.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $43.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily related to costs incurred in connection with the Central Merger, the addition of general and administrative expenses related to Central Operations of $30.8 million, $2.2 million due to the additional RSUs that were granted in the fourth quarter of 2012, payroll and payroll related expenses of $2.5 million, partially offset by decreases in acquisition and integration costs of $4.0 million.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $18.4 million, or 350.8%, to $23.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was a result of the additional amortization and depreciation for the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets from the Central Merger.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased $11.0 million, or 329.8%, to $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in borrowings on our Senior Credit Facility to fund the Central Merger.
Interest income. Interest income increased $0.1 million, or 91.7%, to $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense decreased $2.1 million, or 33.1%, to $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. A decrease in our pre-tax income resulted in a $0.5 million decrease in income tax expense and a decrease in our effective tax rate resulted in a $1.7 million decrease in our tax expense. Our effective tax rate was 35.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 44.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was favorably impacted by discrete benefits of approximately $0.4 million for the retroactive extension of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) and other similar federal income tax credit programs that were enacted as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act in January of 2013 and approximately $0.2 million of favorable federal provision to return true-up adjustments. Without these discrete benefits, our effective tax rate would have been 37.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Outstanding Indebtedness
On September 30, 2013, we had total indebtedness net of unamortized original issue discount of approximately $309.5 million, a decrease of $1.0 million from December 31, 2012. The $309.5 million includes:
· $307.4 million (net of the unamortized original issue discount of $3.9 million) under our Senior Credit Facility (defined below); and
· $2.1 million of other debt including capital lease obligations and obligations on seller notes and other indebtedness.
We believe that our cash flow from operations, combined with availability under our Senior Credit Facility, which amounted to $41.4 million at September 30, 2013, will be sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before their respective maturities. We believe that we will be able to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms.
Senior Credit Facility
On October 2, 2012, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of February 28, 2012, we completed the Central Merger. Central stockholders received 6,161,332 shares of our common stock and we assumed $217.7 million of Central’s debt net of cash acquired. Additionally, Central’s former stockholders will be entitled to receive $27.0 million, subject to adjustment, to be paid three years after closing to the extent it is not used to satisfy indemnity obligations.
In connection with the Central Merger, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as co-syndication agents, U.S. Bank National Association, First Hawaiian Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation, as co-documentation agents, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers, and the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”).
Pursuant to the terms, and subject to the conditions, of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have made available to us a new secured Senior Credit Facility (“Senior Credit Facility”) that permits aggregate borrowings of $450.0 million consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility of up to $200.0 million at any time outstanding, which includes a letter of credit facility that is limited to $100.0 million at any time outstanding, and (ii) a term loan facility of $250.0 million. The Senior Credit Facility matures on October 2, 2017.
We drew down the entire amount of the term loan portion of the Senior Credit Facility in connection with the closing of the Central Merger. The $250.0 million obligation is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization of principal based on the following amounts: (i) $22.5 million in the first year, (ii) $22.5 million in the second year, (iii) $30.0 million in the third year, (iv) $30.0 million in the fourth year; and (v) $37.5 million in the fifth year. We also borrowed $72.8 million under the revolving credit facility in connection with the Central Merger closing. We used the proceeds from these borrowings to repay outstanding indebtedness of Standard and Central affiliates. The revolving credit facility has been and will also be used to pay costs and expenses related to the Central Merger and the related financing and to fund ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, (i) at a rate per annum based on our consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio for the 12-month period ending as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, determined in accordance with the applicable pricing levels set forth in the Credit Agreement (the “Applicable Margin”) for LIBOR loans, plus the applicable LIBOR rate or (ii) the Applicable Margin for base rate loans plus the highest of (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (y) the Bank of America, N.A. prime rate and (z) a daily rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate plus 1.0%.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we are required to maintain a maximum consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio of not greater than 4.5:1.0 (with certain step-downs described in the Credit Agreement). In addition, we are required to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1:25:1.0 (with certain step-ups described in the Credit Agreement).
Events of default under the Credit Agreement include failure to pay principal or interest when due, failure to comply with the financial and operational covenants, the occurrence of any cross default event, non-compliance with other loan documents, the occurrence of a change of control event, and bankruptcy and other insolvency events. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders holding a majority of the commitments and outstanding term loan under the Credit Agreement have the right, among others, to (i) terminate the commitments under the Credit Agreement, (ii) accelerate and require us to repay all the outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement and (iii) require us to cash collateralize any outstanding letters of credit.
Each of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement) has guaranteed all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities of the other guarantors and Standard arising under the Credit Agreement.
We are in compliance with all of our financial covenants. We amended the covenants in November 2013 in connection with restatement. Based on the amendment, we will continue to treat the Bradley Agreement consistent with our prior accounting for purposes of the covenants.
The weighted average interest rate on our Senior Credit Facility at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was 3.7% and 3.7%, respectively. The rate includes all outstanding LIBOR contracts, interest rate swap effect and letters of credit. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings, not including letters of credit, was 3.8% and 3.9% at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
At September 30, 2013, we had $59.3 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, borrowings against the Senior Credit Facility aggregated $311.3 million and we had $41.4 million available under the Senior Credit Facility.
Interest Rate Swap Transactions
We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.
October 25, 2012, the Company entered into Interest Rate Swap transactions (collectively, the “Interest Rate Swaps”) with each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A. and PNC Bank, N.A. in an initial aggregate Notional Amount of $150.0 million (the “Notional Amount”). The Interest Rate Swaps have an effective date of October 31, 2012 and a termination date of September 30, 2017. The Interest Rate Swaps effectively fix the interest rate on an amount of variable interest rate borrowings under the Credit Agreement, originally equal to the Notional Amount at 0.7525% per annum plus the applicable margin rate for LIBOR loans under the Credit Agreement determined based upon the Company’s consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio. The Notional Amount is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization that coincides with quarterly prepayments of principal under the Credit Agreement. These Interest Rate Swaps are classified as cash flow hedges, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a monthly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in earnings as an increase of interest expense. As of September 30, 2013, no ineffectiveness of the hedge has been recognized. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps at September 30, 2013 is $0.6 million and is included in prepaid expenses.
Letters of Credit
At September 30, 2013, we have provided letters of credit totaling $50.2 million to our casualty insurance carriers to collateralize our casualty insurance program.
As of September 30, 2013, we provided $9.1 million in letters of credit to collateralize other obligations.
Deficiency Payments
Pursuant to our obligations with respect to the parking garage operations at Bradley International Airport, we are required to make certain payments for the benefit of the State of Connecticut and for holders of special facility revenue bonds. The deficiency payments represent contingent interest bearing advances to the trustee to cover operating cash flow requirements. As of September 30, 2013, we have made $14.6 million of cumulative deficiency payments to the trustee, net of reimbursements. Deficiency payments are recorded as additional cost of parking services. We believe these advances to be fully recoverable and we recognize the principle, interest and premium related to these deficiency payments when received. We do not directly guarantee the payment of any principal or interest on any debt obligations of the State of Connecticut or the trustee.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we received deficiency repayments (net of deficiency payments made) of $18.0 thousand along with $60.0 thousand of interest related to deficiency repayments from the trustee. In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we made deficiency payments (net of repayments received) of $1.2 million and received $85.0 thousand for interest related to deficiency repayments from the trustee. There was no receivable from the trustee for principal, interest and premium related to deficiency repayments as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Daily Cash Collections
As a result of day-to-day activity at our parking locations, we collect significant amounts of cash. Lease contract revenue is generally deposited into our local bank accounts, with a portion remitted to our clients in the form of rental payments according to the terms of the leases. Under management contracts, some clients require us to deposit the daily receipts into one of our local bank accounts, with the cash in excess of our operating expenses and management fees remitted to the clients at negotiated intervals. Other clients require us to deposit the daily receipts into client accounts and the clients then reimburse us for operating expenses and pay our management fee subsequent to month-end. Some clients require a segregated account for the receipts and disbursements at locations. Our working capital and liquidity may be adversely affected if a significant number of our clients require us to deposit all parking revenue into their respective accounts.
Our liquidity also fluctuates on an intra-month and intra-year basis depending on the contract mix and timing of significant cash payments. Additionally, our ability to utilize cash deposited into our local accounts is dependent upon the availability and movement of that cash into our corporate account. For all these reasons, from time to time, we carry a significant cash balance, while also utilizing our Senior Credit Facility.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Our primary sources of funds are cash flows from operating activities and changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $10.2 million for the first nine months of 2013. Cash provided included cash provided from operations of $34.4 million, partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $24.2 million. The net change in operating assets and liabilities resulted primarily from (i) an increase of $11.1 million in notes and accounts receivable due to timing of customer collections; (ii) a decrease of $18.5 million in accounts payable due primarily to the timing on payments to our clients; (iii) a decrease of $6.0 million in other liabilities primarily related to lower severance and payroll related accrued expenses of $3.7 million, $6.0 million in
reductions in accrued insurance, $3.4 million for payments on divestitures, partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million in accrued rent and an increase of $2.5 million in accrued legal fees and other; (iv) partially offset by a net decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $11.4 million.
Our primary sources of funds are cash flows from operating activities and changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Cash provided included cash provided from operations of $18.1 million from operations, partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $7.1 million. The net change in operating assets and liabilities resulted primarily from (i) an increase of $15.1 million in notes and accounts receivable due to timing of customer collections; (ii) an increase of $0.7 million in prepaid and other assets related to the timing of certain insurance policies and other expenses and an increase in the cash surrender values related to the non-qualified deferred compensation plan; (iii) partially offset by an increase of $6.7 million in accounts payable due primarily to the timing on payments to our clients and new business under management contracts as described under “Daily Cash Collections”; and (iv) an increase of $2.0 million in other liabilities primarily related to an increase in insurance loss estimates and non-qualified deferred compensation plan.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $11.8 million in the first nine months of 2013. Cash used in investing activities for the first nine months of 2013 included capital expenditures of $11.5 million for capital investments needed to secure and/or extend leased facilities and investments in IT projects and cost of contract purchases of $0.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from sale of assets of $0.1 million.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $3.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 included capital expenditures of $3.1 million for capital investments needed to secure and/or extend leased facilities, cost of contract purchases of $0.6 million and contingent payments on previously acquired contracts of $0.1 million.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $4.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Cash used in financing activities for 2013 included $0.1 million for earn-out payments on previously acquired businesses, $0.4 million for payments on capital leases, $1.5 million in net payments on our Senior Credit Facility, $2.2 million for distributions to noncontrolling interest and $0.1 million for payments on long-term borrowings.
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $10.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Cash used in financing activities for 2012 included $1.5 million for earn-out payments on previously acquired businesses, $0.4 million for payments on capital leases, $8.2 million for payments on our senior credit facility, $0.2 million for distributions to noncontrolling interest, payment of debt issuance costs of on long-term borrowings $0.1 million, partially offset by $0.1 million from the exercise of stock options and $0.2 million from the tax benefit related to stock option exercises.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We had cash and cash equivalents of $22.3 million and $28.5 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The cash balances reflect our ability to utilize funds deposited into our local accounts and which based upon availability, timing of deposits and the subsequent movement of that cash into our corporate accounts may result in significant changes to our cash balances.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rates
Our primary market risk exposure consists of risk related to changes in interest rates. We use a variable rate Senior Credit Facility to finance our operations. This facility exposes us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases and conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense also decreases. We believe that it is prudent to limit the exposure of an increase in interest rates.
We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.
October 25, 2012, the Company entered into Interest Rate Swap transactions (collectively, the “Interest Rate Swaps”) with each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A. and PNC Bank, N.A. in an initial aggregate Notional Amount of $150.0 million (the “Notional Amount”). The Interest Rate Swaps have an effective date of October 31, 2012 and a termination date of September 30, 2017. The Interest Rate Swaps effectively fix the interest rate on an amount of variable interest rate borrowings under the Credit Agreement (“the Credit Agreement”), originally equal to the Notional Amount at 0.7525% per annum plus the applicable margin rate for LIBOR loans under the Credit Agreement determined based upon the Company’s consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio. The Notional Amount is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization that coincides with quarterly prepayments of principal under the Credit Agreement. These Interest Rate Swaps are classified as cash flow hedges, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a monthly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in earnings as an increase of interest expense.
As of September 30, 2013, no ineffectiveness of the hedge has been recognized. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps at September 30, 2013 is $0.6 million and is included in prepaid expenses.
Our $450.0 million Senior Credit Facility provides for a $200.0 million variable rate revolving facility and a term loan facility of $250.0 million. In addition, the variable rate revolving facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a sublimit of $100.0 million. Interest expense on such borrowing is sensitive to changes in the market rate of interest. If we were to borrow the entire non-hedged variable rate debt of $300.0 million available under the Senior Credit Facility, a 1% increase in the average market rate would result in an increase in our annual interest expense of $3.0 million. This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing cost, but does not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Due to the uncertainty of the specific changes and their possible effects, the foregoing sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimal. All foreign investments are denominated in U.S. dollars, with the exception of Canada. We had approximately $0.4 million of Canadian dollar denominated cash instruments at September 30, 2013. We had no Canadian dollar denominated debt instruments at September 30, 2013. We do not hold any hedging instruments related to foreign currency transactions. We monitor foreign currency positions and may enter into certain hedging instruments in the future should we determine that exposure to foreign exchange risk has increased.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (the “Evaluation”) at a reasonable assurance level as of the last day of the period covered by this Report.
Disclosure controls and procedures are defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Controller, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
It should be noted that the design of any system of controls 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 our stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2013, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our historical accounting treatment for deficiency payments made pursuant to the Bradley Agreement, as discussed below. Based upon the Evaluation and solely as a result of the identification of this material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Controller have concluded that the design of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the last day of the period covered by this Report.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of our published financial statements.
Prior to the filing of our original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the last day of the period covered by the report. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, our management had believed that as of December 31, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria. Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 excludes the internal control over financial reporting related to Central Parking Corporation (acquired on October 2, 2012). Central is included in the 2012 consolidated financial statements of the Company and constituted $624.9 and $142.5 of total and net assets, respectively, as of December 31, 2012 and $190.0 and $0.9 of revenues and net income, respectively, for the year then ended. Subsequently, during the third quarter of Fiscal 2013, we identified a design deficiency that constitutes a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Bradley Agreement as of December 31, 2012. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Specifically, because of our need to undertake the Restatement, we identified a design deficiency in our controls over the application of complex technical accounting standards to our accounting for deficiency payments made pursuant to the terms of the Bradley Agreement. Accounting for such deficiency payments was particularly challenging because of the of the unique and complicated nature of the Bradley Agreement and the Company’s underlying arrangement with the State of Connecticut. The design deficiency continued to exist as of the last day of the period covered by this report.
After reviewing the circumstances leading up to the Restatement, both management and the Audit Committee are unaware of any evidence that the Restatement is due to any systemic misapplication of, or intentional noncompliance with, generally accepted accounting principles or other systemic failure of accounting controls. Furthermore, given the complex and unique nature of the Bradley Agreement and related accounting, the Company does not believe the change applies to any of its other contracts.
To remediate, we have revised the accounting for the deficiency payments under the Bradley Agreement and plan to implement remedial measures including a review of any lease or management agreements that we may enter into in the future which include contingent provisions similar to those in the Bradley Agreement (although we do not currently expect to enter into any such agreements in the future). More specifically, we are developing updated procedures to reflect the technical guidance for accounting for such arrangements. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively
We expect that the remediation related to controls over the remedial measures mentioned above will be completed prior to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.
(b) | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting |
Except as otherwise discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
(c) | Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control |
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within the Company have been detected.
We are subject to litigation in the normal course of our business. The outcomes of legal proceedings and claims brought against us and other loss contingencies are subject to significant uncertainty. We accrue a charge against income when our management determines that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, we accrue for the authoritative judgments or assertions made against us by government agencies at the time of their rendering regardless of our intent to appeal. In determining the appropriate accounting for loss contingencies, we consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether an accrual should be established or adjusted. Estimating the probability that a loss will occur and estimating the amount of a loss or a range of loss involves significant judgment. In addition, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and other matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of the liability, if any, with respect to these matters will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. We maintain liability insurance coverage to assist in protecting our assets from losses arising from or related to activities associated with business operations.
The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC on November 18, 2013 contains a detailed discussion of our risk factors in Part I. Item 1A (Risk Factor) of such Annual Report. There are no material changes from such risk factors, except that the following risk factor is hereby added:
The restatement of our historical financial statements has already consumed, and may continue to consume, a significant amount of our time and resources and may have a material adverse effect on stock price and subject us to claims.
We have restated certain historical financial statements to reflect a correction in our accounting for deficiency payments made pursuant to the Bradley Agreement. We have also determined that, solely as a result of our prior accounting for the Bradley Agreement, we had a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and that, accordingly, our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of certain prior reporting periods, even though we had previously determined that they were effective. It is difficult to predict all of the ramifications to us from this restatement. The restatement process was time and resource-intensive and involved substantial attention from management and significant costs and expenses, including for legal and other professional advisors and for third parties retained to assist us with the restatement. Although we have now completed the restatement, it is possible that we will have inquiries from the SEC and/or Nasdaq regarding our restated financial statements or related matters, which could consume a significant amount of our resources. Moreover, many companies that have been required to restate their historical financial statements have experienced declines in stock prices and stockholder lawsuits, which can be expensive to defend and divert management attention and resources. We may suffer similar consequences from our restatement.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity and Use of Proceeds
There were no sales or repurchases of stock in the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
