THE MANAGEMENT NETWORK GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Reporting

The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of The Management Network Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“TMNG,” “TMNG Global,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) as of October 2, 2010, and for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009 are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of these dates and for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Consequently, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements nor those normally made in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, reference should be made to the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2010, included in the 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2009 Form 10-K”) for additional disclosures, including a summary of the Company’s accounting policies. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through the date these unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending January 1, 2011.

Reverse Stock Split— On January 21, 2010, TMNG’s stockholders approved a one-for-five reverse stock split of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding common stock. The reverse stock split was effective on February 7, 2010. Trading of TMNG’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market on a split-adjusted basis began at the open of trading on February 8, 2010. The reverse stock split affected all shares of the Company’s common stock, as well as options to purchase the Company’s common stock, that were outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split. All references to common shares and per-share data for prior periods have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The par value of the Company’s common stock was changed to $.005 per share from $.001 per share in connection with the reverse split.

Fair Value Measurement— For cash and cash equivalents, current trade receivables and current trade payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items.

Research and Development and Capitalized Software Costs— During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, software development costs of $116,000 and $439,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, software development costs of $144,000 and $390,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. No software development costs were capitalized during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation— TMNG Europe Ltd., Cartesian Ltd. (“Cartesian”) and the international operations of Cambridge Strategic Management Group, Inc. conduct business primarily denominated in their respective local currency. Assets and liabilities have been translated to U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rate. Revenues and expenses have been translated at exchange rates which approximate the average of the rates prevailing during each period. Translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. Assets and liabilities denominated in other than the functional currency of a subsidiary are remeasured at rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. Resulting gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s results of operations. Exchange losses included in results of operations were $2,000 and $38,000, respectively, during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Exchange gains and (losses) included in results of operations were $128,000 and ($447,000) during the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments— As of October 2, 2010, the Company had an open foreign currency forward contract with a notional amount of $0.2 million. This forward contract provides an economic hedge of fluctuations in euro denominated accounts receivable against the British pound, but has not been designated as a hedge for accounting purposes. The Company utilizes valuation models for this forward contract that rely exclusively on Level 2 inputs, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820,Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. This contract expires on February 22, 2011. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company recognized (losses) gains on foreign currency forward contracts of ($2,000) and $9,000, respectively. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, the Company recognized losses on these forward contracts of $53,000 and $29,000, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited).

6

Net Loss Per Share— The Company has not included the effect of stock options and nonvested shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009 as the Company reported a net loss for these periods and the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements— In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-13,Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issue Task Force(“ASU 2009-13”), and ASU 2009-14,Software (Topic 985) — Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements(“ASU 2009-14”). ASU 2009-13 requires companies to allocate revenue in multiple-element arrangements based on an element’s estimated selling price if vendor-specific or other third party evidence of value is not available. ASU 2009-14 modifies the software revenue recognition guidance to exclude from its scope tangible products that contain both software and non-software components that function together to deliver a product’s essential functionality. Both statements are effective for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06,Fair Value Measures and Disclosures, (“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 amends the Codification to require new or enhanced disclosures about: (1) transfers in and out of Levels 1, 2 and 3; (2) purchases, sales, issuances and settlements related to Level 3 measurements; (3) level of disaggregation; and (4) inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. With the exception of item (2), this guidance was effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company adopted this guidance, with the exception of item (2), upon issuance and it did not have an effect on its consolidated financial statements. The guidance concerning item (2) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of item (2) of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20,Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The guidance will significantly expand the disclosures that companies must make about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The disclosures as of the end of the reporting period are effective for the Company’s interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for the Company’s interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The objectives of the enhanced disclosures are to provide financial statement users with additional information about the nature of credit risks inherent in the Company’s financing receivables, how credit risk is analyzed and assessed when determining the allowance for credit losses, and the reasons for the change in the allowance for credit losses. The adoption of this Update requires enhanced disclosures and is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

2. Auction Rate Securities

As of October 2, 2010 and January 2, 2010, TMNG held $5.9 million and $12.3 million, respectively, in fair value of auction rate securities for which the underlying collateral is guaranteed through the Federal Family Education Loan Program of the U.S. Department of Education. The Company’s auction rate securities portfolio as of October 2, 2010, which is included in Noncurrent investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited), consisted of the following:

ARS Rights				286						286
	$	12,750	$	(56	)	$	(398	)	$	5,444	$	6,852

The Company recognized no gains or losses on auction rate securities classified as trading securities during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, and recognized gains of $56,000 on auction rate securities classified as trading securities during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, the Company recognized gains of $17,000 and $122,000, respectively, on auction rate securities classified as trading securities. These gains and losses on trading securities have been recognized in Other Income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited).

The auction rate securities held by the Company are long-term debt instruments that historically provided liquidity through a Dutch auction process through which interest rates reset every 28 to 35 days. Beginning in February 2008, auctions of the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio failed to receive sufficient order interest from potential investors to clear successfully, resulting in failed auctions. The principal associated with failed auctions will not be accessible until a successful auction occurs, a buyer is found outside of the auction process, the issuers redeem the securities, the issuers establish a different form of financing to replace these securities or final payments come due according to a contractual maturity of approximately 32 years.

During the third quarter of 2008, state and federal regulators reached settlement agreements with both of the brokers who advised the Company to purchase the auction rate securities currently held by the Company. The settlement agreements with the regulators were intended to eventually provide liquidity for holders of auction rate securities. On November 13, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement with UBS AG (“UBS”) to provide liquidity for the Company’s $7.6 million auction rate securities portfolio held with a UBS affiliate. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, UBS issued to the Company Auction Rate Securities Rights (“ARS Rights”), allowing the Company to sell to UBS its auction rate securities held in accounts with UBS and UBS affiliates at par value at any time during the period beginning June 30, 2010 and ending July 2, 2012. As consideration for the issuance of the ARS Rights, the Company (1) released UBS from all claims for damages (other than consequential damages) directly or indirectly relating to UBS’s marketing and sale of auction rate securities, and (2) granted UBS the discretionary right to sell or otherwise dispose of the Company’s auction rate securities, provided that the Company is paid the par value of the auction rate securities upon any disposition. As provided for in the settlement, the Company entered into a line of credit from UBS and its affiliates for up to 75% of the fair value of its auction rate securities. The line of credit provided the Company with an uncommitted, demand revolving line of credit of up to 75% of the fair value, as determined by UBS in its sole discretion, of the Company’s auction rate securities that the Company has pledged as collateral.

While the ARS Rights resulted in a put option which represents a separate freestanding instrument, the put option did not meet the definition of a derivative instrument under FASB ASC 815,“Derivatives and Hedging.”The Company elected to measure the ARS Rights at fair value under FASB ASC 825 to better align changes in fair value of the ARS Rights with those of the underlying auction rate securities investments.

Prior to accepting the UBS settlement offer, the Company recorded all of its auction rate securities as available-for-sale investments. Upon accepting the UBS settlement, the Company made a one-time election to transfer its UBS auction rate securities holdings from available-for-sale securities to trading securities under FASB ASC 320,“Investments-Debt and Equity Securities.”

8

During the thirteen weeks ended July 3, 2010, all of the remaining auction rate securities held with a UBS affiliate were sold by the Company at par value of $5.5 million. Proceeds from the liquidation were applied first to the $3.7 million outstanding balance of the line of credit from UBS. The Company received the remaining $1.8 million in proceeds. Upon the liquidation of the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio held with the UBS affiliate, the ARS Rights terminated unexercised. The ARS Rights were measured at fair value under FASB ASC 825 until UBS’s purchase of the auction rate securities in connection with the ARS Rights.

Additionally, during the thirty-nine weeks October 2, 2010, the Company sold its Brazos Student Finance Corporation Student Loan Asset Backed Notes with a par value of $1.0 million held as part of its auction rate securities portfolio with Citigroup. These auction rate securities were classified as available-for-sale. The Company received $950,000 in proceeds from the transaction. As a result of this transaction, $50,000 in losses were reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss in stockholders’ equity and recognized in Other Income (Expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited).

For auction rate securities classified as available-for-sale, the Company recognized unrealized holding losses of $1,000 during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and no unrealized holding gains or losses during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. In addition, during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company reclassified $50,000 in previously unrealized losses from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss to realized losses in Other Income (Expense) upon the disposition of the related available-for-sale securities as described above. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, the Company recognized unrealized holding gains of $31,000 and $720,000, respectively.

Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities classified as available-for-sale are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of applicable taxes, and have been recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited).

Due to the lack of observable market quotes on the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio and ARS Rights, the Company utilizes valuation models that rely exclusively on Level 3 inputs, as defined by FASB ASC 820, including those that are based on expected cash flow streams and collateral values, including assessments of counterparty credit quality, default risk underlying the security, discount rates and overall capital market liquidity. The valuation of the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio and ARS Rights is subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Factors that may impact the Company’s valuation include changes to credit ratings of the securities as well as to the underlying assets supporting those securities, rates of default of the underlying assets, underlying collateral value, discount rates, counterparty risk and ongoing strength and quality of market credit and liquidity.

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio and ARS Rights for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009 (in thousands):

Given the Company’s intent to exercise its right under the ARS Rights to sell to UBS its auction rate securities held in accounts with UBS and UBS affiliates at par value on June 30, 2010, the Company classified the entire amount of auction rate securities portfolio held with UBS affiliates, including the fair value of the ARS Rights, as short-term investments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010. The remaining auction rate securities are classified as noncurrent investments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited) as of October 2, 2010 and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010.

3. Line of Credit Agreements

As discussed above in Note 2, “Auction Rate Securities,” in November of 2008, the Company entered into a settlement with UBS to provide liquidity for the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio then held with a UBS affiliate. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company liquidated the auction rate securities with a par value of $5.5 million pledged as collateral for the line of credit with UBS. Proceeds from the liquidation were applied first to the $3.7 million outstanding balance of the line of credit as of the date of the transaction. The Company received the remaining $1.8 million in proceeds. Upon liquidation of the relevant auction rate securities, the line of credit with UBS was terminated. The Company classified the outstanding balance of $2.8 million as a current liability in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010. An additional $880,000 was borrowed during the thirteen weeks ended April 3, 2010. These borrowings were used to fund short-term liquidity needs. Because amounts borrowed under the line of credit accrued interest at a floating rate and had a remaining maturity of less than one year, the fair value of this financial instrument approximated its carrying value.

On March 19, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. (“Citigroup”) to provide liquidity for the Company’s $7.3 million auction rate securities portfolio held with Citigroup. Under the loan agreement, the Company has access to a revolving line of credit of up to 50% of the par value of the auction rate securities that the Company has pledged as collateral, or $3.125 million based upon the Company’s current holdings of $6.25 million of auction rate securities. The current interest rate on the line of credit is the federal funds rate plus 3.25%. The interest rate may change in future periods based on the change in the spread over the federal funds rate. The line of credit is not for any specific term or duration and Citigroup may demand full or partial payment of amounts borrowed on the line of credit, at its sole option and without cause, at any time. Citigroup may, at any time, in its discretion, terminate the line of credit with proper notice. No amounts have been borrowed against this line of credit.

4. Business Combinations

RVA Consulting, LLC

On August 3, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of RVA Consulting, LLC (“RVA”) pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with the members of RVA. TMNG assumed all liabilities of RVA, subject to certain indemnities on the part of the selling members. RVA is presented as a component of the North America segment. In addition to cash consideration paid at closing, the transaction included additional consideration for working capital true-ups and potential earn-out consideration based upon performance of RVA through June 30, 2010. The aggregate purchase price of $11.6 million consists of the following (in thousands):

Cash paid at closing	$	6,625
Transaction costs		247
Contingent cash consideration earned		3,273
Contingent cash consideration earned but not yet paid		344

Contingent stock consideration earned but not yet paid (based on June 30, 2010 measurement date)		53
Total purchase price recognized at October 2, 2010	$	11,567

The measurement date for contingent cash and stock consideration was June 30 of each of the three years subsequent to the transaction. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company accrued $344,000 in contingent cash consideration earned but not yet paid for the measurement period ended June 30, 2010. As of October 2, 2010, this liability is included in “Other accrued liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited). This liability was paid during the thirteen weeks ending January 1, 2011. The final measurement date was June 30, 2010. As a result, there is no remaining contingent consideration to be earned.

7. Business Segments and Major Customers

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company was internally reorganized to align geographically with its client base. As a result of this internal realignment, the Company’s reportable segments have changed. Corresponding segment information for prior periods has been restated to conform to the current reportable segment presentation.

The Company identifies its segments based on the way management organizes the Company to assess performance and make operating decisions regarding the allocation of resources. In accordance with the criteria in FASB ASC 280 “Segment Reporting,” the Company has concluded it has two reportable segments: the North America segment and the EMEA segment. The North America segment is comprised of three operating segments (North America Cable and Broadband, North America Telecom and Strategy), which are aggregated into one reportable segment based on the similarity of their economic characteristics. The EMEA segment is a single reportable, operating segment that encompasses the Company’s operational, technology and software consulting operations outside of North America. Both reportable segments offer management consulting, custom developed software, and technical services.

Management evaluates segment performance based upon income (loss) from operations, excluding share-based compensation (benefits), depreciation and intangibles amortization. There were no inter-segment sales in either the thirteen or thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 or October 3, 2009. In addition, in its administrative division, entitled “Not Allocated to Segments,” the Company accounts for non-operating activity and the costs of providing corporate and other administrative services to all the segments. Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following table (amounts in thousands):

Assets not assigned to segments include cash and cash equivalents, current and non-current investments, property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets and deferred tax assets, excluding deferred tax assets recognized on accounts receivable reserves, which are assigned to their segments.

Revenues from the Company’s ten most significant customers accounted for approximately 87% of revenues during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009.

8. Income Taxes

In the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $38,000 and $87,000, respectively. In the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $228,000 and $68,000, respectively. The tax provisions for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 are primarily due to deferred taxes recognized on intangibles amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes and interest recognized on reserves for uncertain tax positions. The tax provision for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 is primarily related to recording a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets related to the Company’s United Kingdom operations and interest recognized on reserves for uncertain tax positions. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the Company recorded full valuation allowances against income tax benefits related to domestic and international operations in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes,” which requires an estimation of the recoverability of the recorded income tax asset balances. As of October 2, 2010, the Company has recorded $33.6 million of valuation allowances attributable to its net deferred tax assets.

The Company analyzes its uncertain tax positions pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the income tax provision. There was no material activity related to the liability for uncertain tax positions during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009. As of October 2, 2010, the Company has $1.0 million accrued for uncertain income tax positions, including interest and penalties. As of October 2, 2010, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the liability for uncertain tax positions will decrease by $0.8 million within the next 12 months due to the expiration of the statute of limitations of tax filings in foreign jurisdictions. The statute of limitations related to uncertain tax positions of $0.4 million expired on October 31, 2010.

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2003. As of October 2, 2010, the Company has no income tax examinations in process.

9. Loan to Officer

As of October 2, 2010, there is one outstanding line of credit between the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, Richard P. Nespola, which originated in fiscal year 2001. Aggregate borrowings outstanding against the line of credit at October 2, 2010 and January 2, 2010 totaled $300,000 and are due in September 2011. This amount is included in Prepaids and Other Current Assets in the current assets section of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited) as of October 2, 2010. This amount was included in other assets in the noncurrent assets section of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010. In accordance with the loan provisions, the interest rate charged on the loans is equal to the Applicable Federal Rate (AFR), as announced by the Internal Revenue Service, for short-term obligations (with annual compounding) in effect for the month in which the advance is made, until fully paid. Pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, no further loan agreements or draws against the line may be made by the Company to, or arranged by the Company for, its executive officers. Interest payments on this loan are current as of October 2, 2010.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company may become involved in various legal and administrative actions arising in the normal course of business. These could include actions brought by taxing authorities challenging the employment status of consultants utilized by the Company. In addition, future customer bankruptcies could result in additional claims on collected balances for professional services near the bankruptcy filing date. The resolution of any of such actions, claims, or the matters described above may have an impact on the financial results for the period in which they occur.

OVERVIEW

TMNG is among the leading providers of professional services to the converging communications, technology, media and entertainment industries and the capital formation firms that support them. We offer a fully integrated suite of consulting offerings including strategy, organizational development, knowledge management, marketing, operational, and technology consulting services. We have consulting experience with almost all major aspects of managing a global communications company. Our portfolio of solutions includes proprietary methodologies and toolsets, deep industry experience, and hands-on operational expertise and licensed software. These solutions assist clients in tackling complex business problems.

Our global investments in targeting the cable industry have re-positioned us to better serve consolidating telecommunications carriers and the converging global technology, media and entertainment companies. The convergence of communications with media and entertainment and the consolidation of large telecommunications carriers have required us to focus our strategy on building a global presence, continuing to expand our offerings and strengthening our position within the large carriers, technology, media and entertainment companies. Our efforts are helping us build what we believe is a more sustainable revenue model over the long-term, which will enable us to expand our global presence. We continue to focus our efforts on identifying, adapting to and capitalizing on the changing dynamics prevalent in the converging communications, technology, media and entertainment industries, as well as providing our wireless and IP services within the communications sector.

Our financial results are affected by macroeconomic conditions, credit market conditions, and the overall level of business confidence. Although the first three quarters of 2010 have demonstrated select positive economic indications, the global economic downturn of 2008 and 2009 has resulted in the continuance of elevated unemployment levels and reductions in capital and operating expenditures for some of our significant clients in the communications, technology, media and entertainment industries. We are also experiencing greater pricing pressure and an increased need for enhanced return on investment for projects or added sharing of risk and reward.

15

Revenues are driven by the ability of our team to secure new project contracts and deliver those projects in a way that adds value to our client in terms of return on investment or assisting clients to address a need or implement change. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, revenues increased 6.2% to $50.8 million from $47.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 driven primarily by increased project demand for our strategic consultative offerings. Our international revenues were approximately 26% of total revenue during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, as compared to 29% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Our revenues are denominated in multiple currencies and are impacted by currency rate fluctuations.

Generally our client relationships begin with a short-term consulting engagement utilizing a few consultants. Our sales strategy focuses on building long-term relationships with both new and existing clients to gain additional engagements within existing accounts and referrals for new clients. Strategic alliances with other companies are also used to sell services. We anticipate that we will continue to pursue these marketing strategies in the future. The volume of work performed for specific clients may vary from period to period and a major client from one period may not use our services or the same volume of services in another period. In addition, clients generally may end their engagements with little or no penalty or notice. If a client engagement ends earlier than expected, we must re-deploy professional service personnel as any resulting non-billable time could harm margins.

Cost of services consists primarily of compensation for consultants who are employees and amortization of share-based compensation for stock options and nonvested stock, amortization of acquired software intangibles, as well as fees paid to independent contractor organizations and related expense reimbursements. Employee compensation includes certain non-billable time, training, vacation time, benefits and payroll taxes. Gross margins are primarily impacted by the type of consulting services provided; the size of service contracts and negotiated discounts; changes in our pricing policies and those of competitors; utilization rates of consultants and independent subject matter experts; and employee and independent contractor costs, which tend to be higher in a competitive labor market.

Our gross margin was 38.3% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared with 41.1% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in gross margin in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009 is due to a combination of factors. The most significant items that impact our margins include the mix of project types, utilization of personnel and competitive pricing decisions, including volume discount programs. In addition, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, we have incurred approximately $0.3 million in the development and launch of the initial SmartXchange handset recapture project.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel salaries, bonuses, and related costs for direct client sales efforts and marketing staff. We primarily use a relationship sales model in which partners, principals and senior consultants generate revenues. In addition, sales and marketing expenses include costs associated with marketing collateral, product development, trade shows and advertising. General and administrative expenses consist mainly of costs for accounting, recruiting and staffing, information technology, personnel, insurance, rent and outside professional services incurred in the normal course of business.

Management has focused on aligning operating costs with operating segment revenues. Along with an increase in revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were reduced by $1.1 million to $20.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $21.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. As a result, our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenues to 40.2% in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from 44.9% in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses was driven primarily by reductions in personnel related costs. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, selling, general and administrative expenses also included $0.7 million in transition and severance for personnel associated with the reorganization undertaken for 2010. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 included a reduction of $0.4 million in foreign currency losses as compared to the 2009 period. We will continue to evaluate selling, general and administrative expenses to maintain an appropriate cost structure relative to revenue levels.

Intangible asset amortization included in operating expenses decreased to $1.1 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $1.5 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in amortization expense was due to the completion of amortization of some intangibles recorded in connection with our acquisitions of Cartesian Ltd and RVA Consulting LLC.

We recorded net losses of $0.7 million and $2.0 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, respectively, compared to net losses of $0.5 million and $3.1 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in net loss for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 is primarily attributable to an increase in revenues and gross profit, effective cost management initiatives and a decrease in intangible amortization. We made significant strides in recent years to reduce our total operating cost structure with emphasis on selling, general and administrative expenses.

Despite the increase in revenues for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, the rate of change in the communications industry, driving convergence of media and telecommunications, consolidation of smaller providers and expanded deployment of wireless capabilities have added both opportunity and uncertainty for our clients. The general result is overall reduced client spending on many capital and operational initiatives. This reduction in spending, coupled with increased competition pursuing fewer opportunities, could result in further price reductions, fewer client projects, under-utilization of consultants, reduced operating margins and loss of market share. Declines in our revenues can have a significant impact on our financial results. Although we have a flexible cost base comprised primarily of employee and related costs, there is a lag in time required to scale the business appropriately if revenues are reduced. In addition, our future revenues and operating results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the number, size and scope of projects in which we are engaged, the contractual terms and degree of completion of such projects, any delays incurred in connection with a project, consultant utilization rates, general economic conditions and other factors.

From a cash flow perspective, cash flows used in operating activities were $0.5 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and cash flows provided by operating activities were $0.1 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, cash used in operating activities included a negative impact of $0.9 million due to changes in working capital, partially offset by $0.4 million of positive cash flows from the results of operations (after adding back non-cash items to our net loss).

At October 2, 2010, we had working capital of approximately $16.9 million. In addition, our noncurrent investments of $5.9 million ($6.3 million par value) consist of auction rate securities held with Citigroup. Returns on our cash and investments have decreased over recent periods as a result of decreasing interest rates and a reduction in invested balances.

Our investments include auction rate securities guaranteed through the Federal Family Education Loan Program of the U.S. Department of Education. As discussed in Note 2, “Auction Rate Securities,” during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, our entire remaining auction rate securities portfolio held by a UBS affiliate were sold by us at par value of $5.5 million. Upon the sale of the securities, $3.7 million was applied to the line of credit from UBS and its affiliates. The line of credit was terminated, the ARS Rights expired unexercised and we received the remaining sales proceeds of $1.8 million. As a result, working capital as of October 2, 2010 includes no short-term investments or borrowings.

Additionally, during the thirty-nine weeks October 2, 2010, we sold our Brazos Student Finance Corporation Student Loan Asset Backed Notes with a par value of $1.0 million held as part of our auction rate securities portfolio with Citigroup. We received $950,000 in proceeds from the transaction.

During the first quarter of 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with Citigroup to provide liquidity for the remainder of our $7.25 million auction rate securities portfolio held with Citigroup. Under the loan agreement, we have access to a revolving line of credit of up to 50% of the par value of the auction rate securities that we have pledged as collateral, or $3.125 million based upon the Company’s current holdings of $6.25 million of auction rate securities. We have made no borrowings under the line of credit with Citigroup.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

While the selection and application of any accounting policy may involve some level of subjective judgments and estimates, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to our condensed consolidated financial statements, potentially involve the most subjective judgments in their selection and application, and are the most susceptible to uncertainties and changing conditions:

• Marketable Securities;

• Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets;

• Revenue Recognition;

• Share-based Compensation Expense;

• Accounting for Income Taxes; and

• Research and Development and Capitalized Software Costs.

Marketable Securities— Short-term and non-current investments, which consist of auction rate securities, are accounted for under the provisions of FASB ASC 320,“Investments-Debt and Equity Securities.” Management evaluates the appropriate classification of marketable securities at each balance sheet date. These investments are reported at fair value, as measured pursuant to FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” For those securities considered to be “available-for-sale,” any temporary unrealized gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of applicable taxes. For those securities considered to be “trading,” any unrealized gains and losses are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited), net of applicable taxes. Additionally, realized gains and losses, changes in value judged to be other-than-temporary, interest and dividends are also included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited), net of applicable taxes.

As of October 2, 2010, $5.9 million in auction rate securities ($6.3 million par value) is reflected as non-current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited). As of January 2, 2010, $6.9 million in auction rate securities ($7.3 million par value) was reflected as non-current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited). All of these auction rate securities are classified as available-for-sale investments. For auction rate securities classified as available-for-sale, we recognized unrealized holding gains of $49,000 and $50,000, respectively during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and recognized unrealized holding gains of $31,000 and $720,000, respectively during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009.

As of January 2, 2010, we had $5.4 million ($5.5 million par value) in auction rate securities reflected as current assets. The auction rate securities classified as short-term investments were held with a UBS affiliate. During 2008, we reached a settlement agreement related to our auction rate securities held in accounts with a UBS affiliate. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement with UBS, UBS held discretionary rights to sell or otherwise dispose of our auction rate securities (“ARS Rights”), provided that we were entitled to the par value of the auction rate securities upon any disposition. Upon accepting the UBS settlement, we made a one-time election to transfer our UBS auction rate securities holdings from available-for-sale securities to trading securities under FASB ASC 320. For auction rate securities classified as trading

17

securities, we recognized no gains or losses on auction rate securities during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and recognized realized holding gains of $342,000 offset by realized losses on the Company’s ARS Rights of $286,000 during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. For auction rate securities classified as trading securities, we recognized realized holding gains of $208,000 and $606,000, respectively, offset by realized losses on the Company’s ARS Rights of $191,000 and $484,000, respectively, during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The ARS Rights were measured at fair value under FASB ASC 825. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, all of the auction rate securities classified as trading were sold at par value of $5.5 million.

Due to the lack of observable market quotes on our auction rate securities portfolio and ARS Rights, we utilize valuation models that rely exclusively on Level 3 inputs as defined in FASB ASC 820 including those that are based on expected cash flow streams and collateral values, including assessments of counterparty credit quality, default risk underlying the security, discount rates and overall capital market liquidity. The valuation of our auction rate securities portfolio and ARS Rights is subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Factors that may impact our valuation include changes to credit ratings of the securities as well as to the underlying assets supporting those securities, rates of default of the underlying assets, underlying collateral value, discount rates, counterparty risk and ongoing strength and quality of market credit and liquidity.

Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets— As of October 2, 2010, we had $8.1 million in goodwill and $1.0 million in long-lived intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization. Goodwill and other long-lived intangible assets arising from our acquisitions are subjected to periodic review for impairment. FASB ASC 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” requires an evaluation of these indefinite-lived assets annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate that such assets may be impaired. The evaluation is conducted at the reporting unit level and compares the calculated fair value of the reporting unit to its book value to determine whether impairment has been deemed to occur. Any impairment charge would be based on the most recent estimates of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill. If the remaining book value assigned to goodwill in an acquisition is higher than the estimated fair value of the reporting unit, there is a requirement to write down these assets.

Fair value of our reporting units is determined using the income approach. The income approach uses a reporting unit’s projection of estimated cash flows discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital analysis that reflects current market conditions. We also consider the market approach to valuing our reporting units, however due to the lack of comparable industry publicly available transaction data, we concluded that a market approach will not adequately reflect our specific reporting unit operations. While the market approach is typically not expressly utilized, we do compare the results of our overall enterprise valuation to our market capitalization. Significant management judgments related to the income approach include:

• Anticipated future cash flows and terminal value for each reporting unit — The income approach to determining fair value relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows, including an estimate of terminal value. The projections use management’s estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including growth rates in revenues and estimates of expected changes in operating margins. Our projections of future cash flows are subject to change as actual results are achieved that differ from those anticipated. Because management frequently updates its projections, we would expect to identify on a timely basis any significant differences between actual results and recent estimates.

• Selection of an appropriate discount rate — The income approach requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is based on a weighted average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is affected by changes in short-term interest rates and long-term yield as well as variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants. The discount rate is determined based on assumptions that would be used by marketplace participants, and for that reason, the capital structure of selected marketplace participants was used in the weighted average cost of capital analysis. Given the current volatile economic conditions, it is possible that the discount rate will fluctuate in the near term.

In accordance with FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment,” we use our best estimates based upon reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections to review for impairment of finite-lived assets and finite-lived identifiable intangibles to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our assets might not be recoverable.

Revenue Recognition— We recognize revenues from time and materials consulting contracts in the period in which our services are performed. We recognized $7.5 million and $6.4 million in revenues from time and materials contracts during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. We recognized $20.2 million and $19.4 million in revenues from time and materials contracts during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. In addition to time and materials contracts, our other types of contracts include fixed fee contracts and contingent fee contracts. During the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, we recognized $8.9 million and $10.4 million in revenues on these other types of contracts. We recognized $30.6 million and $28.4 million in revenues from these other types of contracts during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. We recognize revenues on milestone or deliverables-based fixed fee contracts and time and materials contracts not to exceed contract price using the percentage of completion-like method described by FASB ASC 605-35, “Revenue Recognition — Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts” (formerly AICPA Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts”). For fixed fee contracts where services are not based on providing deliverables or achieving milestones, we recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the period during which such services are expected to be performed. In connection with some fixed fee contracts, we receive payments from customers that exceed recognized revenues. We record the excess of receipts from customers over recognized revenue as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue is classified as a current liability to the extent it is expected to be earned within twelve months from the date of the balance sheet.

18

We also develop, install and support customer software in addition to our traditional consulting services. We recognize revenues in connection with our software sales agreements utilizing the percentage of completion method prescribed by FASB ASC 605-35. These agreements include software right-to-use licenses (“RTU’s”) and related customization and implementation services. Due to the long-term nature of software implementation and the extensive software customization based on normal customer specific requirements, both the RTU and implementation services are treated as a single element for revenue recognition purposes.

The FASB ASC 605-35 percentage-of-completion-like methodology involves recognizing revenue using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the longer term nature of these projects, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, and the impact of delayed performance. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, we revise our cost and revenue estimates, which may result in increases or decreases in revenues and costs, and such revisions are reflected in income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known.

In addition to the professional services related to the customization and implementation of software, we also provide post-contract support (“PCS”) services, including technical support and maintenance services. For those contracts that include PCS service arrangements which are not essential to the functionality of the software solution, we separate the FASB ASC 605-35 software services and PCS services utilizing the multiple-element arrangement model prescribed by FASB ASC 605-25,“Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements” (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”). FASB ASC 605-25 addresses the accounting treatment for an arrangement to provide the delivery or performance of multiple products and/or services where the delivery of a product or system or performance of services may occur at different points in time or over different periods of time. We utilize FASB ASC 605-25 to separate the PCS service elements and allocate total contract consideration to the contract elements based on the relative fair value of those elements. Revenues from PCS services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term of the support and maintenance agreement.

We also may enter into contingent fee contracts, in which revenue is subject to achievement of savings or other agreed upon results, rather than time spent. Due to the nature of contingent fee contracts, we recognize costs as they are incurred on the project and defer revenue recognition until the revenue is realizable and earned as agreed to by our clients. Although these contracts can be very rewarding, the profitability of these contracts is dependent on our ability to deliver results for our clients and control the cost of providing these services. These types of contracts are typically more results-oriented and are subject to greater risk associated with revenue recognition and overall project profitability than traditional time and materials contracts. Revenues associated with contingent fee contracts were not material during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 or October 3, 2009.

Share-based Compensation Expense— We grant stock options and non-vested stock to our employees and also provide employees the right to purchase our stock at a discount pursuant to an employee stock purchase plan. The benefits provided under these plans are share-based payment awards subject to the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” Under FASB ASC 718, we are required to make significant estimates related to determining the value of our share-based compensation. Our expected stock-price volatility assumption is based on historical volatilities of the underlying stock which are obtained from public data sources. The expected term of options granted is based on the simplified method in accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 110 as our historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis for estimation.

If factors change and we develop different assumptions in the application of FASB ASC 718 in future periods, the compensation expense that we record under FASB ASC 718 may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved when using option pricing models to estimate share-based compensation under FASB ASC 718. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect our estimates of fair values of our share-based compensation. Certain share-based payment awards, such as employee stock options, may expire worthless or otherwise result in zero intrinsic value as compared to the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our financial statements. Alternatively, values may be realized from these instruments that are significantly in excess of the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our financial statements. Although the fair value of employee share-based awards is determined in accordance with FASB ASC 718 and SAB No. 110 using an option pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

In addition, under FASB ASC 718 we are required to net estimated forfeitures against compensation expense. This requires us to estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited prior to vesting. If actual forfeitures in future periods are different than our initial estimate, the compensation expense that we ultimately record under FASB ASC 718 may differ significantly from what was originally estimated. The weighted average estimated forfeiture rate for unvested options outstanding as of October 2, 2010 is 39%.

Accounting for Income Taxes— Accounting for income taxes requires significant estimates and judgments on the part of management. Such estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, the effective tax rate anticipated to apply to tax differences that are expected to reverse in the future, the sufficiency of taxable income in future periods to realize the benefits of net deferred tax assets and net operating losses currently recorded and the likelihood that tax positions taken in tax returns will be sustained on audit. We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” As required by FASB ASC 740, we record deferred tax assets or liabilities based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using currently enacted rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. FASB ASC 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. As of October 2, 2010, cumulative valuation allowances in the amount of $33.6 million were recorded in connection with the net deferred income tax assets. As required by FASB ASC 740, we have

19

performed a comprehensive review of our portfolio of uncertain tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by the guidance. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740, an uncertain tax position represents our expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return, or planned to be taken in a future tax return, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. As of October 2, 2010, we have recorded a liability of approximately $1.0 million for unrecognized tax benefits. The statute of limitations related to uncertain tax positions of $0.4 million expired on October 31, 2010.

We have generated substantial deferred income tax assets related to our domestic operations, and to a lesser extent our international operations, primarily from the accelerated financial statement write-off of goodwill, the charge to compensation expense taken for stock options and net operating losses. Within our foreign operations, mostly domiciled within the United Kingdom, we have generated deferred tax assets primarily from the charge to compensation expense for stock options and operating losses. For us to realize the income tax benefit of these assets in either jurisdiction, we must generate sufficient taxable income in future periods when such deductions are allowed for income tax purposes. In some cases where deferred taxes were the result of compensation expense recognized on stock options, our ability to realize the income tax benefit of these assets is also dependent on our share price increasing to a point where these options have intrinsic value at least equal to the grant date fair value and are exercised. In assessing whether a valuation allowance is needed in connection with our deferred income tax assets, we have evaluated our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to utilize the benefit of the deferred income tax assets. We continue to evaluate our ability to use recorded deferred income tax asset balances. If we continue to report domestic or international operating losses for financial reporting in future years in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize net operating loss carry-forwards in the future.

International operations have become a significant part of our business. As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We utilize a “cost plus fixed margin” transfer pricing methodology as it relates to inter-company charges for headquarters support services performed by our domestic entities on behalf of various foreign affiliates. The judgments and estimates used are subject to challenge by domestic and foreign taxing authorities. It is possible that such authorities could challenge those judgments and estimates and draw conclusions that would cause us to incur liabilities in excess of those currently recorded. We use an estimate of our annual effective tax rate at each interim period based upon the facts and circumstances available at that time, while the actual annual effective tax rate is calculated at year-end. Changes in the geographical mix or estimated amount of annual pre-tax income could impact our overall effective tax rate.

Research and Development and Capitalized Software Costs— Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 985-20, “Software — Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed.” Capitalization of software development costs for products to be sold to third parties begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility and ceases when the product is available for general release. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs require considerable judgment by management concerning certain external factors including, but not limited to, technological feasibility, anticipated future gross revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. We capitalize development costs incurred during the period between the establishment of technological feasibility and the release of the final product to customers. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, software development costs of $116,000 and $439,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, software development costs of $144,000 and $390,000, respectively, were expensed as incurred. No software development costs were capitalized during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED OCTOBER 2, 2010 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 2009

REVENUES

Revenues decreased 2.5% to $16.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $16.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in revenues is primarily due to lower revenues in our EMEA segment due to a decline in demand for technology and software services and a negative impact of $0.2 million as a result of exchange rate movements.

North America Segment— North America segment revenues were $12.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009. During the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, the North America segment provided services on 91 customer projects, compared to 75 projects performed in the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. Average revenue per project was $135,000 in the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to $176,000 in the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. Revenues recognized in connection with fixed price engagements totaled $6.2 million and $8.2 million, representing 50.5% and 61.6% of total revenues of the segment, for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively.

EMEA Segment— EMEA segment revenues decreased by 8.4% to $4.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $4.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. All revenues were generated internationally. During the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, this segment provided services on 62 and 95 customer projects, respectively. Average revenue per project was approximately $55,000 and $40,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. The decrease in the number of customer projects and increase in revenue per project for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the 2009 period is primarily due to the commencement of several large projects during the 2010 period as a result of our clients’ increased concentration on key business issues. Revenues from post-contract software related support services were approximately $673,000 and $632,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. There were no revenues from software

20

licensing during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010. Revenues from software licensing during the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009 were $3,000.

COSTS OF SERVICES

Costs of services increased 2.3% to $10.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $9.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. Our gross margin was 37.9% for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to 40.8% for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. Cost of services during the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 were $7.6 million and $2.6 million, respectively, in our North America and EMEA segments. Cost of services during the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009 were $6.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in our North America and EMEA segments. Our North America segment gross margin was 38.1% for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to 43.5% for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in gross margin in the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009 in our North America segment is primarily due to the completion of a large management consulting project in 2009, partially offset by an increase in strategy engagements resulting in higher utilization of our fixed employee consulting base. Our EMEA segment gross margin was 34.7% for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to 33.6% for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. The increase in gross margin in the EMEA segment is primarily related to reductions in delivery costs partially offset by lower revenue volumes driven by a reduction in demand for software services. Costs of services in the EMEA segment included amortization of intangible assets of $145,000 and $154,000, respectively, for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, related to acquired software. The reduction in intangible amortization is due to exchange rate movements.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses were $6.9 million and $7.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. Operating expenses for both periods included selling, general and administrative expenses (inclusive of share-based compensation) and intangible asset amortization.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $6.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to $6.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, our selling, general and administrative expenses were 40.0% for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to 40.1% for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009.

Intangible asset amortization decreased by $166,000 to $340,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to $506,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to the completion of amortization of various intangibles recorded in connection with acquisitions.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

Interest income was $32,000 and $50,000 for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively, and represented interest earned on invested balances. Interest income decreased for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009, due primarily to reductions in interest rates and reductions in invested balances. We primarily invest in money market funds and have holdings in auction rate securities. For the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, other income includes $50,000 in realized holding losses for auction rate securities classified as available for sale that were sold during the period. For the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009, other income includes $208,000 in realized holding gains for auction rate securities classified as trading securities, offset by realized losses on our ARS Rights of $191,000. In addition, other income for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009 includes $28,000 related to the settlement of a foreign withholding tax dispute.

INCOME TAXES

During the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively, we recorded income tax provisions of $38,000 and $228,000. The tax provision for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 is primarily due to deferred taxes recognized on intangibles amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes and interest recognized on reserves for uncertain tax positions. The tax provision for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009 is primarily related to recording a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets related to our United Kingdom operations. For the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, we recorded no income tax benefit related to our domestic and international pre-tax losses in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which requires an estimation of our ability to use recorded deferred income tax assets. We currently have recorded a valuation allowance against all domestic and international deferred income tax assets generated due to uncertainty about their ultimate realization due to our history of operating losses. If we continue to report net operating losses for financial reporting in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards in the future.

NET LOSS

We had a net loss of $0.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to a net loss of $0.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 3, 2009. The increase in net loss is due to higher cost of services on slightly lower sales.

REVENUES

Revenues increased 6.2% to $50.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $47.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The increase in revenues is primarily due to an increase in demand for strategic consulting within our North America segment, partially offset by a decrease in revenues in our EMEA segment.

North America Segment— North America segment revenues increased 12.7% to $38.7 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $34.4 million for the same period of 2009. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, the North America segment provided services on 144 customer projects, compared to 125 projects performed in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Average revenue per project was $269,000 in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to $275,000 in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Revenues recognized in connection with fixed price engagements totaled $23.1 million and $22.0 million, representing 59.6% and 64.0% of total revenues of the segment, for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. This increase in revenues from fixed price engagements is primarily due to an increase in strategic consulting.

EMEA Segment— EMEA segment revenues decreased by 10.2% to $12.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 from $13.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. All revenues were generated internationally. The decrease in revenue for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the 2009 period is primarily due to a decline in demand for technology and software services. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, this segment provided services on 134 and 179 customer projects, respectively. Average revenue per project was approximately $76,000 and $64,000, respectively, for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009. The decrease in the number of customer projects and increase in revenue per project for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the 2009 period is primarily due to the commencement of several large projects during the 2010 period as a result of our clients’ increased concentration on key business issues. Revenues from post-contract software related support services were approximately $1,950,000 and $1,702,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. There were no revenues from software licensing during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Revenues from software licensing during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 were $431,000.

COSTS OF SERVICES

Costs of services increased 11.4% to $31.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to $28.2 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, our gross margin was 38.3% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to 41.1% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Cost of services during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 were $23.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively, in our North America and EMEA segments. Cost of services during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 were $19.6 million and $8.6 million, respectively, in our North America and EMEA segments. Our North America segment gross margin was 39.7% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to 43.1% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in gross margin in the first half of 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009 in our North America segment is primarily due to longer term and lower margin management consulting projects and the completion of a large management consulting project in 2009, partially offset by an increase in strategy engagements resulting in higher utilization of our fixed employee consulting base. Our EMEA segment gross margin was 32.8% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to 36.0% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Margin reductions in the EMEA segment are primarily related to lower revenue volumes driven by a reduction in demand for technology and software services. Costs of services in the EMEA segment included amortization of intangible assets of $432,000 and $434,000, respectively, for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, related to acquired software. The reduction in intangible amortization is due to exchange rate movements.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses decreased by 6.4% to $21.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, from $23.0 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Operating expenses for both periods included selling, general and administrative expenses (inclusive of share-based compensation) and intangible asset amortization.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $20.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to $21.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, our selling, general and administrative expense was 40.2% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, compared to 44.9% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to reductions in personnel related costs of $1.1 million and professional fees of $0.1 million, partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in severance costs. The severance costs in the 2010 period relate to transition and severance for personnel associated with the reorganization undertaken for 2010. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 included a reduction of $0.4 million in foreign currency losses as compared to the 2009 period. We continue to evaluate alignment of costs to revenues for each operating segment.

Intangible asset amortization decreased from $1,471,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 to $1,061,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. The decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to the completion of amortization of various intangibles recorded in connection with acquisitions.

22

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

Interest income was $140,000 and $188,000 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively, and represented interest earned on invested balances. Interest income decreased for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 as compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 due primarily to reductions in invested balances and reductions in interest rates. We primarily invest in money market funds and have holdings in auction rate securities. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, other income includes $342,000 in realized holding gains for auction rate securities classified as trading securities, offset by realized losses on our ARS Rights of $286,000. In addition, Other Income for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 includes $50,000 in realized holding losses for auction rate securities classified as available for sale that were sold during the period. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, other income includes $606,000 in realized holding gains for auction rate securities classified as trading securities, offset by realized losses on our ARS Rights of $484,000. In addition, other income for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 includes $28,000 related to the settlement of a foreign withholding tax dispute.

INCOME TAXES

In the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, we recorded income tax provisions of $87,000 and $68,000, respectively. The tax provision for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 is primarily due to deferred taxes recognized on intangibles amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting purposes and interest recognized on reserves for uncertain tax positions. The tax provision for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 is primarily related to recording a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets related to our United Kingdom operations and interest recognized on reserves for uncertain tax positions. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, we recorded no income tax benefit related to our domestic and international pre-tax losses in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which requires an estimation of our ability to use recorded deferred income tax assets. We currently have recorded a valuation allowance against all domestic and international deferred income tax assets generated due to uncertainty about their ultimate realization due to our history of operating losses. If we continue to report net operating losses for financial reporting in either our domestic or international operations, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive evidence to support our ability to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards in the future.

NET LOSS

We had net loss of $2.0 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 compared to a net loss of $3.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. This decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to effective cost management initiatives that resulted in reduced operating expenses and a decrease in intangible amortization, partially offset by a reduction in gross profit.

STATEMENT REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENT

In addition to net loss and net loss per share on a GAAP basis, our management uses a non-GAAP financial measure, “Non-GAAP adjusted net income or loss,” in its evaluation of our performance, particularly when comparing performance to the prior year’s period and on a sequential basis. This non-GAAP measure contains certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in the following schedule entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss).” In making these non-GAAP adjustments, we take into account certain non-cash expenses and benefits, including tax effects as applicable, and the impact of certain items that are generally not expected to be on-going in nature or that are unrelated to our core operations. Management believes the exclusion of these items provides a useful basis for evaluating underlying business performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, evaluating our performance utilizing GAAP financial information. We believe that providing such adjusted results allows investors and other users of our financial statements to better understand TMNG’s comparative operating performance for the periods presented. TMNG’s non-GAAP measure may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Although TMNG’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating the performance of its business, TMNG acknowledges that items excluded from such measure have a material impact on our net loss and net loss per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management uses non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP results. Investors and other users of our financial information should also consider the above factors when evaluating TMNG’s results. All per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-5 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock effective February 7, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used in operating activities was $0.5 million the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, cash used in operating activities included a negative impact of $0.9 million due to changes in working capital, partially offset by $0.4 million of positive cash flows from the results of operations (after adding back non-cash items to our net loss). For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the results of operations (after adding back non-cash items to our net loss).

Net cash provided by investing activities was $5.9 million the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Net cash used in investing activities was $2.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Investing activities include proceeds from sales of short-term and noncurrent investments of $6.5 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Investing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009 included $1.9 million in earn-out payments related to the acquisition of Cartesian. Investing activities also included $0.5 million for both the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009 related to the purchase of office equipment, software and computer equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $3.3 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.9 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009. Financing activities in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010 included $3.7 million in repayments on a line of credit and $0.9 million in proceeds from line of credit borrowings. Financing activities

24

in the 2009 period included $3.4 million in proceeds from line of credit borrowings. In addition, in both periods payments of $0.5 million were made on long-term obligations.

At October 2, 2010, we had approximately $8.3 million in cash and cash equivalents ($4.1 million of which is denominated in pounds sterling) and $16.9 million in net working capital. In addition, as discussed below, we have established lines of credit totaling $3.1 million against our remaining auction rate securities portfolio, of which we have no borrowings as of October 2, 2010. We believe we have sufficient cash and access to credit to meet anticipated cash requirements, including anticipated capital expenditures, earn-out payments, and any future operating losses that may be incurred, for at least the next 12 months. Should our cash and available lines of credit prove insufficient we may need to obtain new debt or equity financing to support our operations or complete acquisitions. Credit and capital markets have continued to experience unusual volatility and disruption, and equity and debt financing have generally become more expensive and difficult to obtain. If we need to obtain new debt or equity financing to support our operations or complete acquisitions in the future, we may be unable to obtain debt or equity financing or reasonable terms. We have established a flexible model that provides a lower fixed cost structure than most consulting firms, enabling us to scale operating cost structures more quickly based on market conditions, although there is a lag in time required to scale the business appropriately if revenues are reduced. If demand for our consulting services declines or we experience negative cash flow, we could experience liquidity challenges at some point in the future.

On March 19, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. (“Citigroup”) to provide liquidity for our $7.3 million auction rate securities portfolio held with Citigroup. Under the loan agreement, we have access to a revolving line of credit of up to 50% of the par value of the auction rate securities that we have pledged as collateral, or $3.125 million based upon our current holdings of $6.25 million of auction rate securities. The interest rate as of October 2, 2010 that we would pay on amounts borrowed is the federal funds rate plus 3.25%. The interest rate may change in future periods based on the change in the spread over the federal funds rate. The line of credit is not for any specific term or duration and Citigroup may demand full or partial payment of amounts borrowed on the line of credit, at its sole option and without cause, at any time. Citigroup may, at any time, in its discretion, terminate the line of credit with proper notice. No amounts have been borrowed against this line of credit.

As of January 2, 2010, we held auction rate securities with a UBS affiliate with a fair value of $5.4 million ($5.5 million par value). As of January 2, 2010, we had borrowed $2.8 million under the line of credit. Because we intended to exercise our right under the ARS Rights to sell to UBS our auction rate securities held in accounts with UBS and a UBS affiliate on June 30, 2010, we classified these auction rate securities as current assets and the line of credit with UBS as a current liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2010. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, we borrowed an additional $880,000 on the line of credit, making the outstanding balance $3.68 million.

During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, our entire auction rate securities portfolio held by a UBS affiliate was sold by us at par value of $5.5 million. Upon the sale of the securities, $3.7 million was applied to the line of credit from UBS. The line of credit was terminated, the ARS Rights expired unexercised and we received the remaining sales proceeds of $1.8 million.

In addition, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2010, we sold the Brazos Student Finance Corporation Student Loan Asset Backed Notes with a par value of $1.0 million held as part of the Company’s auction rate securities portfolio with Citigroup. We received $950,000 in proceeds from the transaction. As a result of this transaction, $50,000 in losses were reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss in stockholders’ equity and recognized in Other Income (Expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited).

As of October 2, 2010, we held auction rate securities with Citigroup in the face amount of $6.3 million collateralized by government guaranteed student loans. The estimated fair value of the auction rate securities is $5.9 million as of October 2, 2010.

As we are able to liquidate any of our remaining auction rate securities portfolio we intend to reinvest in money market or similar investments any amounts not used to repay any amounts borrowed under the remaining line of credit. We continually monitor the credit quality and liquidity of our auction rate securities. To the extent we believe we will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of a security, we will record an other-than-temporary impairment. This could require us to recognize losses in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (unaudited) in accordance with FASB ASC 320, which could be material.

FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS

During fiscal year 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of RVA. In addition to consideration paid at closing for this acquisition, we accrued $344,000 during the thirteen weeks ended July 3, 2010 for consideration earned by RVA and payable during the fourth quarter 2010. See Note 4, “Business Combinations,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited).

During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2009, we entered into an agreement under which we have a commitment to purchase a minimum of $401,000 in computer software over a three year period. As of October 2, 2010, we have an obligation of $189,000 remaining under this commitment.

During August 2010, we executed a lease agreement for new office space in Boston, Massachusetts. The lease commences on February 1, 2011 and runs for five years and three months from the commencement date. Future minimum payments over the term of this lease are $2.0 million.

25

During September 2010, we executed a lease amendment for our office space in London, United Kingdom. The amendment extends the lease through November 2015 and adjusts the payments due under the lease. Future minimum payments as of October 2, 2010 over the remaining term of this lease are $3.0 million.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. The Disclosure Committee meets on a regular quarterly basis, and as needed.

A review and evaluation was performed by our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of October 2, 2010.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
