	Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
	ARC Document Solutions, Inc. (“ARC Document Solutions,” “ARC” or the “Company”) is the nation's leading document solutions provider for the architectural, engineering and construction (“AEC”) industry while also providing document solutions to businesses of all types. ARC offers a variety of services including: Onsite Services, Digital Services, Color Services, and Traditional Reprographics Services. In addition, ARC also sells Equipment and Supplies. The Company conducts its operations through its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, American Reprographics Company, L.L.C., a California limited liability company, and its subsidiaries.
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conformity with the requirements of the SEC. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, the accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and relies on historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to determine such estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
	These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 which supersedes the existing revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605).” The new guidance requires entities to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08. The new guidance raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted but only for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05. The new guidance covers the accounting for a cumulative translation adjustment on the parent entity upon de-recognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The adoption of ASU 2013-05 had no impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
	Segment Reporting
	The provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, require public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. The Company identifies operating segments based on the various business activities that earn revenue and incur expense, whose operating results are reviewed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, who, acting jointly, are deemed to be the chief operating decision makers. Because its operating segments have similar products and services, classes of customers, production processes and economic characteristics, the Company is deemed to operate as a single reportable segment.

	Risk and Uncertainties
	The Company generates the majority of its revenue from sales of services and products to the AEC industry. As a result, the Company’s operating results and financial condition can be significantly affected by economic factors that influence the AEC industry, such as non-residential construction spending, GDP growth, interest rates, unemployment rates, and office vacancy rates. Reduced activity (relative to historic levels) in the AEC industry would diminish demand for some of ARC’s services and products, and would therefore negatively affect revenues and have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition.
	As part of the Company’s growth strategy, ARC intends to continue to offer and grow a variety of service offerings that are relatively new to the Company. The success of the Company’s efforts will be affected by its ability to acquire new customers for the Company’s new service offerings, as well as to sell the new service offerings to existing customers. The Company’s inability to successfully market and execute these relatively new service offerings could significantly affect its business and reduce its long term revenue, resulting in an adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.

Earnings Per Share	'
	Earnings per Share
	The Company accounts for earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ARC by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if common shares subject to outstanding options and acquisition rights had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, stock options for 2.3 million and 1.7 million common shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income attributable to ARC per common share because they were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, stock options for 2.2 million and 3.8 million common shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income attributable to ARC per common share because they were anti-dilutive.
	Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were calculated using the following common shares:
		Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
		2014	2013	2014	2013

	Restructuring Expenses
	To ensure that the Company’s costs and resources were in line with demand for its current portfolio of services and products, management initiated a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2012. Restructuring activities associated with the plan concluded in the fourth quarter of 2013. Through December 31, 2013, the restructuring plan included the closure or downsizing of 56 of the Company’s service centers, which represented more than 25% of its total number of service center locations. In addition, as part of the restructuring plan, the Company reduced headcount and middle management associated with its service center locations, streamlined the senior operational management team, and allocated more resources into growing sales categories such as Onsite services. The reduction in headcount totaled approximately 300 full-time employees, which represented approximately 10% of the Company’s total workforce. To date, the Company has incurred $6.6 million of expense related to its restructuring plan.
	Restructuring expenses include employee termination costs, estimated lease termination and obligation costs, and other restructuring expenses. Restructuring expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily consisted of revised estimated lease termination and obligation costs resulting from facilities closed in 2013.
	The following table summarizes restructuring expenses incurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

	Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions
	Goodwill
	In connection with acquisitions, the Company applies the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The excess purchase price over the assessed fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
	In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, the Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually as of September 30, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. At September 30, 2013, the Company assessed goodwill for impairment and determined that goodwill was not impaired.
	Based upon its assessment, the Company concluded that no goodwill impairment triggering events have occurred during 2014 that would require an interim goodwill impairment test.
	Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the date the goodwill is initially recorded. Once goodwill has been assigned to reporting units, it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition, and all of the activities within a reporting unit, whether acquired or internally generated, are available to support the value of the goodwill.
	Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process. Step one involves comparing the fair value of the reporting units to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than zero and its fair value is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.
	The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using an income approach. Under the income approach, the Company determined fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of each reporting unit. The cash flows are discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which is intended to reflect the overall level of inherent risk of a reporting unit. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. The Company considered market information in assessing the reasonableness of the fair value under the income approach outlined above.
	Given the current economic environment, the changing document and printing needs of the Company’s customers, and the uncertainties regarding the related impact on the Company’s business, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing in 2013 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Company’s assumptions, including forecasted EBITDA of certain reporting units, are not achieved, the Company may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with the Company’s next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2014, or on an interim basis, if any such change constitutes a triggering event (as defined under ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other ) outside of the quarter when the Company regularly performs its annual goodwill impairment test. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.
	There was no change to the carrying amount of goodwill from January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014.
	See “Critical Accounting Policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further information regarding the process and assumptions used in the goodwill impairment analysis.
	Long-lived Assets
	The Company periodically assesses potential impairments of its long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. An impairment review is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company groups its assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of the other assets and liabilities. The Company has determined that the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available is the divisional level.
	Factors considered by the Company include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends. When the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows and eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. An impairment loss is reflected as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, based on the fair value if available, or discounted cash flows, if fair value is not available.
	Other intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their useful lives. Customer relationships are amortized using the accelerated method, based on customer attrition rates, over their estimated useful lives of 13 (weighted average) years. The Company acquired two businesses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and recorded customer relationship intangibles of $1.2 million related to the acquisitions. Consideration for the purchase of the two businesses included cash payments of $0.3 million and earnout liabilities of $0.9 million. The Company's requirement to pay these earnout liabilities is contingent upon the future financial growth of the two acquired businesses.
	The following table sets forth the Company’s other intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 which continue to be amortized:

	Income Taxes
	On a quarterly basis, the Company estimates its effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and records a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated rate in conjunction with the recognition of any discrete items within the quarter.
	The Company recorded an income tax provision of $0.6 million and $1.3 million in relation to pretax income of $5.2 million and $7.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The income tax provision was primarily due to the impact of amortization of tax basis goodwill in a deferred tax liability position.
	In accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, the Company evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine if a valuation allowance is required based on the consideration of all available evidence using a “more likely than not” standard, with significant weight being given to evidence that can be objectively verified. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability; the length of statutory carryover periods for operating losses and tax credit carryovers; and available tax planning alternatives. As of June 30, 2011, the Company determined that cumulative losses for the preceding twelve quarters constituted sufficient objective evidence (as defined by ASC 740-10) that a valuation allowance on certain deferred assets was needed. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has a $82.5 million valuation allowance against certain of its deferred tax assets.
	Based on the Company’s assessment, the remaining net deferred tax assets of $1.5 million as of June 30, 2014, which relate to foreign entities, are considered more likely than not to be realized. The valuation allowance of $82.5 million may be increased or decreased as conditions change or if the Company is unable to implement certain available tax planning strategies. The realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets ultimately depend on future taxable income, reversals of existing taxable temporary differences or through a loss carry back. The Company has income tax receivables of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2014 included in other current assets in its condensed consolidated balance sheet primarily related to income tax refunds for prior years.

	Term Loan Credit Agreement
	On December 20, 2013, the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank., N.A, as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto.
	The credit facility provided under the Term Loan Credit Agreement consists of an initial term loan facility of $200.0 million, the entirety of which was disbursed in order to pay for the purchase of the Company's then outstanding 10.5% senior unsecured notes due 2016 (the “Notes”) that were accepted under a cash tender offer and the subsequent redemption of the remaining outstanding Notes and to pay associated fees and expenses in connection with the cash tender offer and redemption. The Company has the right to request increases to the aggregate amount of term loans by an amount not to exceed $50.0 million in the aggregate.
	By refinancing the Notes with this Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Company was able to reduce the effective interest rate on its long-term debt from 10.5% (or $21.0 million of interest per year on $200.0 million of principal) to 6.25% (or $12.5 million of interest per year on $200.0 million of principal). In addition, it moved the principal portion of the Company's long-term debt into a structure that is efficiently pre-payable without a premium. This allows the Company to use its cash flow to efficiently deliver value to the Company's stockholders.
	The Term Loan Credit Agreement maturity date, with respect to the initial $200.0 million term loan, is December 20, 2018. Under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Company is required to make regularly scheduled principal payments of $2.5 million each quarter, with all remaining unpaid principal due at maturity. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company made its scheduled principal payments of $5.0 million and voluntarily prepaid $7.5 million of its scheduled principal payments due through March 31, 2015.
	The term loan extended under the Term Loan Credit Agreement can be maintained in different tranches consisting of Eurodollar loans or as base rate loans. It is expected that the borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will be maintained in Eurodollars and therefore will bear interest, for any interest period, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the higher of (A) the LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar deposits for a period equal to the applicable interest period as determined by the administrative agent in accordance with the Term Loan Credit Agreement and (B) with respect to the initial term loans only, 1.00%, plus (ii) an applicable margin of 5.25%
	The Company pays certain recurring fees with respect to the credit facility, including administration fees to the administrative agent.
	In accordance with the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain an Interest Expense Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) greater than or equal to 2.00:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company is required to maintain a Total Leverage Ratio less than or equal to (i) 4.50:1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending through December 31, 2014; (ii) 4.25:1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending between March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2015; (iii) 4.00:1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending between March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2016; (iv) 3.75:1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending between March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2017; and (v) 3.50:1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2018 and thereafter. The Company was in compliance with the Term Loan Credit Agreement covenants as of June 30, 2014.
	Subject to certain exceptions, the term loan extended under the Term Loan Credit Agreement is subject to customary mandatory prepayment provisions with respect to: the net cash proceeds from certain asset sales; the net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of debt (other than debt permitted to be incurred under the terms of the Term Loan Credit Agreement); a portion (with stepdowns based upon the achievement of a financial covenant linked to the total leverage ratio) of annual excess cash flow of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and with such required prepayment amount to be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the amount of voluntary prepayments of term loans made with internally generated funds; and, the net cash proceeds in excess of a certain amount from insurance recovery (other than business interruption insurance) and condemnation events of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, subject to certain reinvestment rights.
	The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, subject to limitations and exceptions, and customary covenants restricting the ability (subject to various exceptions) of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness (including guarantee obligations); incur liens; engage in mergers or other fundamental changes; sell certain property or assets; pay dividends of other distributions; consummate acquisitions; make investments, loans and advances; prepay certain indebtedness; change the nature of their business; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and, incur restrictions on the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to make distributions, advances and asset transfers.
	The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including with respect to: nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made; failure to perform or observe covenants; cross-default to other material indebtedness; bankruptcy and insolvency events; inability to pay debts; monetary judgment defaults; actual or asserted invalidity or impairment of any definitive loan documentation; and a change of control.
	The obligations of the Company under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each United States domestic subsidiary of the Company. The Term Loan Credit Agreement and any interest rate protection and other hedging arrangements provided by any lender party to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any affiliate of such a lender are secured on a first priority basis by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and each guarantor’s assets (subject to certain exceptions), except that such lien is second priority in the case of inventory, receivables and related assets that are subject to a first priority security interest under the 2012 Credit Agreement (as defined below).
	2012 Credit Agreement
	On January 27, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2012 Credit Agreement”). The 2012 Credit Agreement was amended on December 20, 2013 in connection with the Company's entry into the Term Loan Credit Agreement for the principal purpose of making the 2012 Credit Agreement consistent with the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The 2012 Credit Agreement, as amended, provides revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $40.0 million with a Canadian sublimit of $5.0 million, based on inventory and accounts receivable of the Company’s subsidiaries organized in the US ("United States Domestic Subsidiaries") and Canada ("Canadian Domestic Subsidiaries") that meet certain eligibility criteria. The 2012 Credit Agreement has a maturity date of January 27, 2017.
	Amounts borrowed in US dollars under the 2012 Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of LIBOR loans, at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus the LIBOR Rate Margin (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement), which may range from 1.75% to 2.25%, based on Average Daily Net Availability (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement). All other amounts borrowed in US dollars that are not LIBOR loans bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Federal Funds rate plus
	0.5%, (B) the LIBOR (calculated based upon an interest period of three months and determined on a daily basis), plus 1.0% per annum, and (C) the rate of interest announced, from time to time, within Wells Fargo Bank, National Association at its principal office in San Francisco as its “prime rate,” plus (ii) the Base Rate Margin (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement), which may range from 0.75% to 1.25%, based on Average Daily Net Availability (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement). Amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Canadian Base Rate (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement) plus the LIBOR Margin, which may range from 1.75% to 2.25%, based on Average Daily Net Availability.
	The 2012 Credit Agreement contains various loan covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to take certain actions, including restrictions on incurrence of indebtedness, creation of liens, mergers or consolidations, dispositions of assets, repurchase or redemption of capital stock, making certain investments, entering into certain transactions with affiliates or changing the nature of the Company’s business. In addition, at any time when Excess Availability (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement) is less than $8.0 million, the Company is required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2012 Credit Agreement) of at least 1.0. The Company’s obligations under the 2012 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its United States Domestic Subsidiaries’ assets. The Company's United States Domestic Subsidiaries have also guaranteed all of the Company’s obligations under the 2012 Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Company’s Canadian Domestics Subsidiaries which are borrowers under the 2012 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s Canadian Domestic Subsidiaries.
	As of and during the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any outstanding debt under the 2012 Credit Agreement, other than contingent reimbursement obligations for undrawn standby letters of credit described below that were issued under the 2012 Credit Agreement.
	As of June 30, 2014, based on inventory and accounts receivable of the Company’s subsidiaries organized in the US and Canada, the Company’s borrowing availability under the 2012 Credit Agreement was $40.0 million. Standby letters of credit totaling $2.3 million reduced the Company’s borrowing availability under the 2012 Credit Agreement to $37.7 million as of June 30, 2014.
	Foreign Credit Agreement
	In the third quarter of 2013, in conjunction with its Chinese operations, UNIS Document Solutions Co. Ltd. (“UDS”), the Company’s Chinese business venture with Beijing-based Unisplendour, entered into a revolving credit facility with a term of 18 months. The facility provides for a maximum credit amount of 20.0 million Chinese Yuan Renminbi, which translates to U.S. $3.2 million as of June 30, 2014. Draws on the facility are limited to 30 day periods and incur a fee of 0.05% of the amount drawn and no additional interest is charged.
	Other Notes Payable
	Includes notes payable collateralized by equipment previously purchased and subordinated seller notes payable related to prior acquisitions.

	Operating Leases. The Company has entered into various non-cancelable operating leases primarily related to facilities, equipment and vehicles used in the ordinary course of business.
	Contingent Transaction Consideration. The Company is subject to earnout obligations entered into in connection with acquisitions. If acquired businesses generate sales and/or operating profits in excess of predetermined targets, the Company is obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of such earnout obligations. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has potential future earnout obligations for acquisitions consummated before the adoption of ASC 805, Business Combinations, of approximately $1.5 million through 2014 if predetermined financial targets are met or exceeded. Earnout payments prior to the adoption of ASC 805 are recorded as additional purchase price (as goodwill) when the contingent payments are earned and become payable. The Company does not believe payment of such earnouts to be probable. As of June 30, 2014, the Company recorded liabilities related to future earnout payments consummated subsequent to the adoption of ASC 805 of $0.9 million. In accordance with ASC 805, changes to the liability are recognized in the company's consolidated statement of operations.
	Legal Proceedings. On October 21, 2010, a former employee, individually and on behalf of a purported class consisting of all non-exempt employees who work or worked for American Reprographics Company, L.L.C. and American Reprographics Company in the State of California at any time from October 21, 2006 through the present, filed an action against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Orange. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company violated the California Labor Code by failing to (i) provide meal and rest periods, or compensation in lieu thereof, (ii) timely pay wages due at termination, and (iii) that those practices also violate the California Business and Professions Code. The relief sought includes damages, restitution, penalties, interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees and such other relief as the court deems proper. On March 15, 2013, the Company participated in a private mediation session with claimants’ counsel which did not result in resolution of the claim. Subsequent to the mediation session, the mediator issued a proposal that was accepted by both parties. The Company has received preliminary court approval of the settlement, and awaits final court approval. The Company recorded a liability of $0.9 million as of June 30, 2014 related to the claim, which represents management's best estimate based on information available.
	On February 1, 2013, ARC filed a civil complaint against a competitor and a former employee in the Superior Court of California for Orange County, which alleged, among other claims, the misappropriation of ARC trade secrets; namely, proprietary customer lists that were used to communicate with ARC customers in an attempt to unfairly acquire their business. In prior litigation with the competitor based on related facts, in 2007 the competitor entered into a settlement agreement and stipulated judgment, which included an injunction. ARC instituted this suit to stop the defendant from using similar unfair business practices against it in the Southern California market. The case proceeded to trial in May 2014, and a jury verdict was entered for the defendants. ARC is considering its appeal options. Legal fees associated with the litigation totaled $2.1 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
	In addition to the matters described above, the Company is involved in various additional legal proceedings and other legal matters from time to time in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

	At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held on May 1, 2014, the Company's stockholders approved the Company's 2014 Stock Plan (the “2014 Stock Plan”) as adopted by the Company's board of directors. The 2014 Stock Plan replaces the American Reprographics Company 2005 Stock Plan (the "2005 Plan"). The 2014 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonuses and other forms of awards granted or denominated in the Company's common stock or units of the Company's common stock, as well as cash bonus awards to employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The 2014 Stock Plan authorizes the Company to issue up to 3.5 million shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2014, 2.9 million shares remain available for issuance under the Stock Plan.
	Stock options granted under the 2014 Stock Plan generally expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Options generally vest and become fully exercisable over a period of three to four years from date of award, except that options granted to non-employee directors may vest over a shorter time period. The exercise price of options must be equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company allows for cashless exercises of vested outstanding options.
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company granted options to acquire a total of 518 thousand shares of the Company's common stock to certain key employees with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These stock options will vest annually over three years and expire 10 years after the date of grant. In addition, the Company granted options to acquire a total 48 thousand and 13 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock to its Chief Operating Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, respectively, with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These stock options will vest annually over four years and expire 10 years after the date of grant.
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company granted 144 thousand shares of restricted stock to the Company's Chief Executive Officer at a price per share equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date the restricted stock was granted. The restricted stock vests annually over four years after the date of grant. In addition, the Company granted 9 thousand shares of restricted stock to each of the Company's six non-employee members of its board of directors at a price per share equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date the restricted stock was granted. The restricted stock vests on the one-year anniversary of the grant date.
	The impact of stock-based compensation before income taxes on the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	The impact of stock-based compensation before income taxes on the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was $1.7 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	Fair Value Measurements
	Fair Values of Financial Instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments for disclosure purposes:
	Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents are time deposits with maturity of three months or less when purchased, which are highly liquid and readily convertible to cash. Cash equivalents reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were $10.7 million and $12.9 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and are carried at cost and approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of these instruments.
	Short- and long-term debt: The carrying amount of the Company’s capital leases reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2014 for borrowings under its Term Loan Credit Agreement is $187.5 million. The Company has determined, utilizing observable market quotes, that the fair value of borrowings under its Term Loan Credit Agreement is $190.7 million as of June 30, 2014.

	The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conformity with the requirements of the SEC. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, the accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and relies on historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to determine such estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
	These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K.

	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 which supersedes the existing revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605).” The new guidance requires entities to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08. The new guidance raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted but only for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05. The new guidance covers the accounting for a cumulative translation adjustment on the parent entity upon de-recognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The adoption of ASU 2013-05 had no impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Segment Reporting	'
	Segment Reporting
	The provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, require public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. The Company identifies operating segments based on the various business activities that earn revenue and incur expense, whose operating results are reviewed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, who, acting jointly, are deemed to be the chief operating decision makers. Because its operating segments have similar products and services, classes of customers, production processes and economic characteristics, the Company is deemed to operate as a single reportable segment.

	The Company generates the majority of its revenue from sales of services and products to the AEC industry. As a result, the Company’s operating results and financial condition can be significantly affected by economic factors that influence the AEC industry, such as non-residential construction spending, GDP growth, interest rates, unemployment rates, and office vacancy rates. Reduced activity (relative to historic levels) in the AEC industry would diminish demand for some of ARC’s services and products, and would therefore negatively affect revenues and have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition.
	As part of the Company’s growth strategy, ARC intends to continue to offer and grow a variety of service offerings that are relatively new to the Company. The success of the Company’s efforts will be affected by its ability to acquire new customers for the Company’s new service offerings, as well as to sell the new service offerings to existing customers. The Company’s inability to successfully market and execute these relatively new service offerings could significantly affect its business and reduce its long term revenue, resulting in an adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.
Earnings Per Share	'
	Earnings per Share
	The Company accounts for earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ARC by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if common shares subject to outstanding options and acquisition rights had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, stock options for 2.3 million and 1.7 million common shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income attributable to ARC per common share because they were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, stock options for 2.2 million and 3.8 million common shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income attributable to ARC per common share because they were anti-dilutive.
Business Combinations Policy	'
	In connection with acquisitions, the Company applies the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The excess purchase price over the assessed fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
	In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, the Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually as of September 30, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. At September 30, 2013, the Company assessed goodwill for impairment and determined that goodwill was not impaired.
	Based upon its assessment, the Company concluded that no goodwill impairment triggering events have occurred during 2014 that would require an interim goodwill impairment test.
	Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the date the goodwill is initially recorded. Once goodwill has been assigned to reporting units, it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition, and all of the activities within a reporting unit, whether acquired or internally generated, are available to support the value of the goodwill.
	Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process. Step one involves comparing the fair value of the reporting units to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than zero and its fair value is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.
	The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using an income approach. Under the income approach, the Company determined fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of each reporting unit. The cash flows are discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which is intended to reflect the overall level of inherent risk of a reporting unit. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. The Company considered market information in assessing the reasonableness of the fair value under the income approach outlined above.
	Given the current economic environment, the changing document and printing needs of the Company’s customers, and the uncertainties regarding the related impact on the Company’s business, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing in 2013 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Company’s assumptions, including forecasted EBITDA of certain reporting units, are not achieved, the Company may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with the Company’s next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2014, or on an interim basis, if any such change constitutes a triggering event (as defined under ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other ) outside of the quarter when the Company regularly performs its annual goodwill impairment test. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

Long-lived Assets	'
	Long-lived Assets
	The Company periodically assesses potential impairments of its long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. An impairment review is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company groups its assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of the other assets and liabilities. The Company has determined that the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available is the divisional level.
	Factors considered by the Company include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends. When the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows and eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. An impairment loss is reflected as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, based on the fair value if available, or discounted cash flows, if fair value is not available.
Income Taxes	'
	In accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, the Company evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine if a valuation allowance is required based on the consideration of all available evidence using a “more likely than not” standard, with significant weight being given to evidence that can be objectively verified. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability; the length of statutory carryover periods for operating losses and tax credit carryovers; and available tax planning alternatives.
