The Consolidated Financial Statements are for the periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 for ATS Corporation (the “Successor Company” or the “Company”) and are for the periods ended January 15, 2007 (the acquisition date) and October 31, 2006 for Advanced Technology Systems, Inc. (the “Predecessor Company” or “ATSI”). The Company has included the results of operations for the acquisition of ATSI from the acquisition date through March 31, 2007.
Except for the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2006 and ATSI as of October 31, 2006, which are derived from audited financial statements, the accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of such financial position and results of operations have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as required by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s annual financial statements and notes. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The interim financial statements of ATSI has also been presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q. Such information should be read in conjunction with the ATSI consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2006 included in the ATS Corporation Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
NOTE B¾RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Specifically, this Statement sets forth a definition of fair value, and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are generally required to be applied on a prospective basis, except to certain financial instruments accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, for which the provisions of SFAS No. 157 should be applied retrospectively. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, on its financial position or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity, at specified election dates, to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to provide entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently, without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for accounting periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE C¾RESTRICTED CASH
The Company is required to maintain $1,200,000 on deposit with a financial institution to support a bonding requirement for one of ATSI’s state contracts. Such amounts are reflected in restricted cash in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE D¾INVESTMENTS HELD IN TRUST
The Company held certain investments in a trust account consisting principally of short-term treasury bills. All such investments held in the Trust fund have been disposed as of March 31, 2007.
NOTE E¾INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Successor — Basic and diluted net loss per share information is presented in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding which includes common stock equivalents. The Company’s common stock equivalents include stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, a total of 42,755,754 and 42,000,000 common stock equivalents, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their impact would have been anti-dilutive.
Predecessor — Diluted loss per share from the period from November 1, 2006 through January 15, 2007 did not include the effect of 447,100 stock options as the impact would have been anti-dilutive.
Weighted average common shares are calculated as follows:

NOTE F¾EMPLOYEE STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share Based Payment, which requires that compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. Under the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recognizes stock-based compensation based upon the fair value of the stock-based awards taking into account the effects of the employees expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The Company recognized $601,000 ($.03 per basic and diluted share) of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007, which is included in general and administrative expense. The Company did not grant any stock-based awards to employees prior to fiscal year 2007.
The fair value of options granted during the period ended March 31, 2007 has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
| Three Months |
| |
|
| 2007 |
|
Expected dividend yield |
| 0 | % |
Expected volatility |
| 36 | % |
Risk free interest rate |
| 4.7 | % |
Expected life of options |
| 5.6 years |
|
Forfeiture rate |
| 4 | % |
Effective November 1, 2006, ATSI was required to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123(R). However, no options were granted from the adoption date through January 15, 2007. In connection with the sale of ATSI to ATS Corporation, ATSI was required to redeem 447,100 outstanding stock options for approximately $1.6 million. A liability was recorded on January 15, 2007 to cover such compensation expense.
On January 12, 2007, the stockholders of the Company approved the ATS Corporation 2006 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan, the Company reserved 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance to employees and directors through incentive stock options, or non-qualified stock options or through restricted stock units. Pursuant to the Plan, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 540,000 stock options. The stock options have vesting periods up to four years.

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $ 2.07. As of March 31, 2007, there was $ 519,271 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.9 years. The fair value of options vested during the period was approximately $591,000.
On March 31, 2007, pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued 215,574 restricted stock units valued at approximately $183,000 to certain directors of the Company. Such units vest ratably over a 5 year period.
NOTE G¾ACCOUNTING FOR WARRANTS AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
On October 25, 2005, the Company consummated its initial public offering of 21,000,000 units. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and two redeemable common stock purchase warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one share of its common stock at an exercise price of $5.00. The warrant agreement provides for the Company to register the shares underlying the warrants and was silent as to the penalty to be incurred in the absence of the Company’s ability to deliver registered shares to the warrant holders upon warrant exercise. The warrants expire on October 19, 2009.
Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-19, or EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” provides criteria for determining whether freestanding contracts that are settled in a company’s own stock, including common stock warrants, should be designated as either an equity instrument, an asset or as a liability under SFAS No. 133. Under the provisions of EITF 00-19, a contract designated as an asset or a liability must be carried at fair value on a company’s balance sheet, with any changes in fair value recorded in a company’s results of operations. A contract classified as an equity instrument is included within equity, and no fair value adjustments are required from period to period.
Fair values for traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, as in the case of the Company’s warrants as of the date of issuance, fair values are determined using methods requiring judgment and estimates. Utilizing such methods, the fair value of the warrant liability at October 20, 2005 (the date of issuance) was determined to be $0.34 per warrant. At the date of issuance, the Company allocated the unit price between the share of common stock and the warrants issued based upon relative fair value determined, among other things, by reference to the underlying cash held in the Trust fund. The warrants included in the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering began to be publicly traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board on December 5, 2005, and consequently the fair value of the warrants was reflected as the market price of a warrant at each reporting period. To the extent that the market prices of the Company’s warrants increase or decrease, the Company’s derivative liabilities will also increase or decrease with a corresponding impact on its statements of operations.
In accordance with EITF 00-19, the warrants to purchase common stock included in the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering were separately accounted for as liabilities previous to March 14, 2007 and the fair value of these securities was presented on the Company’s balance sheets as warrant liabilities. On March 14, 2007, the Company entered into a warrant clarification agreement to expressly state that, in the event a warrant would expire unexercised and without value and unredeemed on the expiration date, under no circumstances would the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. As such, the effect modifies the classification of the warrants from a liability to equity. The Company recognized a loss of $6,930,000 representing the change in fair value of the warrant liability from December 31, 2006 through March 14, 2006. The fair value of the warrants at March 14, 2007 of $20,790,000 was reclassified to additional paid in capital.

NOTE H—COMMON STOCK REDEMPTION
Following the consummation of the acquisition of ATSI, the Company announced and implemented a common stock and warrant repurchase program. Through March 31, 2007, the Company paid approximately $13.5 million in cash to redeem 2,811,400 shares of common stock at an average price of $4.80 per share.
On January 16, 2007, the Company announced that it would repurchase 2,625,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the founders at $0.011 per share. This program was completed in January 2007.
On January 16, 2007, the Company announced that it would repurchase shares of those shareholders that voted against the acquisition of ATSI and requested that their shares (2,906,355) be redeemed at the then per share trust value of $5.77 per share. This program was completed in January 2007.
NOTE I¾INCOME TAXES
The Company and ATSI’s effective tax rates are based upon the effective tax to be applicable to the full fiscal year. As of March 31, 2007, the Company had a net deferred tax liability of approximately $4.9 million.
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company was required to adopt FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainity in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold of financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. Since inception and through January 1, 2007, the adoption date of this standard, the Company was in essence a “blank check” company with no substantive operations. The Companying recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). The Company’s 2004 through 2006 tax years are still subject to examination by the IRS. Various state jurisdiction tax years remain open to examination. As a result, management has concluded that the adoption of this standard had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
Management is in the process of evaluating the various tax positions associated with the acquisitions of ATSI and Reliable Integrations Services, Inc. (RISI) and is of the opinion that any deferred tax liabilities that would ultimately result from uncertain tax positions related to these entities would be covered by indemnification provisions provided in the acquisition agreements or would result in an adjustment to goodwill.
NOTE J-SEGMENT ACCOUNTING
The Company reviewed its services by unit to determine if any unit of the business is subject to risks and returns that are different than those of other units in the Company. Based on this review, the Company has determined that all units of the Company are providing comparable services to its clients, and the Company has only one reportable segment.
11
NOTE K¾ACQUISITIONS
ATSI
Effective the close of business of January 15, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of ATSI, a provider of systems integration and application development to the U.S. government, for $84.0 million in cash, and 173,913 shares valued at approximately $1,000,000 as of the closing date. The Company was organized to effect a business combination with an operating business in the federal services and defense industries. ATSI is active primarily in the growing U.S. government information technology services market. ATS designs, develops and integrates enterprise-wide information technology solutions, including custom software applications, that address the U.S. government’s need to improve system efficiency, track human and financial capital, and reduce system downtime. Management believes that ATSI provides a strong federal services platform from which the Company can grow, has strong core competencies that the Company can build upon, and provides opportunities to create additional stockholder value. The stock purchase agreement provides for a working capital adjustment to the extent the net working capital on the closing date varies from the target amount as defined in the agreement. Based on a determination of net working capital at the acquisition date, the Company has recorded a receivable for approximately $3.5 million, included in other current assets on the March 31, 2007 consolidated balance sheet, that it expects to receive from funds that were placed in escrow to cover any purchase price adjustments.
It is possible that the former shareholders of ATSI could benefit from earnout opportunities if certain adjusted earnings thresholds are achieved during subsequent periods. These earnout opportunities had two components, each dependent on ATSI achieving certain levels of trailing 12-month EBITDA, as defined in the stock purchase agreement. One component of the earnout, up to an aggregate of $15.0 million, was dependent on ATSI achieving certain levels of adjusted EBITDA during the 12-month trailing periods ended October 31, 2006 and April 30, 2007. The second component of the earnout up to an aggregate of $24.0 million, was dependent on the award of a large U.S. Air Force contract that ATSI bid on, which ATSI was notified on March 26, 2007, that it did not receive. The Company funded the cash portion of the ATSI purchase price with the proceeds of its initial public offering. In connection with the acquisition of ATSI, holders of 2,906,355 shares of common stock voted against the acquisition and perfected their right to convert their shares of common stock into $5.77 of cash per share. An aggregate of $16,769,668 was paid to such dissenting stockholders.
Under the purchase method of accounting, the preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon preliminary estimates, which assume that historical cost approximates fair value of the assets and liabilities of ATSI. As such, management estimates that a substantial portion of the excess purchase price will be allocated to non-amortizable intangible assets. These estimates are subject to change upon the finalization of the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and may be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. Management has preliminarily estimated that the transaction will result in $63.7 million of goodwill that is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Additionally, management estimated that approximately $17.0 million of the purchase price is allocable to customer-related intangible assets, which include customer contracts, backlog, and non-contractual customer relationships (including trade name recognition). Such intangible assets will be amortized over periods ranging from three to six years based upon factors such as customer relationships and contract periods.

RISI
On March 1, 2007, the Company acquired Reliable Integration Services, Inc. (“RISI”), a 37-employee network systems integrator serving U.S. government defense and civilian agencies for approximately $1.3 million as set forth below. Management believes that RISI’s client base and work product complements ATSI’s client base and work product and provides opportunities for both companies to cross sell their services.

Management has preliminarily estimated that the transaction will result in $1.0 million of goodwill. Management is currently analyzing the deductibility of goodwill on future income taxes. Approximately $300,000 of the purchase price is expected to be allocated to acquired customer-related intangible assets, that include customer contracts, backlog, and non-contractual customer relationships (including trade name recognition), and will be amortized over periods ranging from three to six years based upon factors such as expected customer relationships and contract periods.

NOTE M¾COMMITMENTS
Change in Control Agreements
Prior to the acquisition, ATSI’s Board of Directors approved Retention Agreements to key employees which authorized the payment of bonuses if the employee continued employment through the date of the ATS Corporation acquisition. As further described in Note K, as of the close of business on January 15, 2007, ATSI was acquired by the Company. As a condition of the Retention Agreements, certain key employees received approximately $3,705,000 in bonuses upon the closing of the transaction. These bonuses are recorded in overhead expense in ATSI’s consolidated statements of operations for the period from November 1, 2006 through January 15, 2007.
15
Employment Agreement
On March 19, 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer who has been serving in that capacity since January 16, 2007. The employment agreement was filed as part of a current report on Form 8-K on March 21, 2007. The employment agreement specifies annual salary and incentive compensation for the terms of the agreement. The agreement also provides for between twelve and eighteen months’ salary and 50% of any incentive compensation targets if the employee is terminated other than for cause.
Phantom Stock Option Plan
In December 2004, ATSI’s subsidiary, Appix, Inc. (Appix), adopted the Appix Phantom Stock Plan (the Phantom Stock Plan). Under the Phantom Stock Plan, a committee of the Board of Directors of Appix could award up to 2,000,000 Phantom stock units to eligible participants. The value of the units was determined based upon a formula that is defined in the agreement. The units were also subject to a vesting schedule as defined in the Phantom Stock Plan, and became immediately exercisable in the event of a change in control of Appix or the Company. Units issued under the Phantom Stock Plan were also subject to certain termination and cancellation provisions.
As further described in Note K, as of the close of business on January 15, 2007, ATSI was acquired by the Company. As a condition of the stock purchase agreement, all outstanding phantom stock units were repurchased for approximately $276,000. Compensation expense associated with the phantom stock redemption is recorded in general and administrative expense in ATSI’s statements of operations for the period from November 1, 2006 through January 15, 2007.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” and “would” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial position, or state other forward-looking information. The factors described in our filings with the SEC, as well as any cautionary language in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements, including but not limited to:
· risks related to the government contracting industry, including possible changes in government spending priorities;
· risks related to our business, including our dependence on contracts with U.S. Federal Government agencies and departments and continued good relations, and being successful in competitive bidding, with those customers;
· uncertainties as to whether revenues corresponding to our contract backlog will actually be received;
· risks related to the implementation of our strategic plan, including the ability to make acquisitions and the performance and future integration of acquired businesses; and
· other risks and uncertainties disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 under “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if our situation changes in the future.
The terms “we” and “our” as used throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to ATS Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated.

Overview
ATS Corporation (“ATS”) was organized as a “blank check” company under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 12, 2005 and was formed for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase or other similar business combination, an operating business in the federal services and defense industries. As of close of business on January 15, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Advanced Technology Systems, Inc. (“ATSI”), a provider of systems integration and application development to the U.S. government, for (a) $84.0 million in cash, reduced by a working capital adjustment, the repayment of outstanding indebtedness of ATSI and an aggregate of $8.395 million of escrowed funds, and (b) 173,913 shares of our common stock. It is possible that the former shareholders of ATSI could benefit from certain earn out opportunities if certain adjusted EBITDA thresholds are achieved. In addition, on March 1, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Reliable Integration Services, Inc. (“RISI”), a network systems integrator provider serving U.S. government defense and civilian agencies for $1.3 million in the form of cash, promissory notes and the assumption of debt, plus 46,296 shares of our common stock.
ATS (www.atsva.com) is a professional services firm serving both the Federal Government and state and local government agencies, specializing in systems integration and application development; information technology infrastructure management to support its clients’ program or system objectives through the design and implementation of customized solutions; strategic information technology consulting (business process redesign); and network management.
Our diverse customer base consists primarily of U.S. government agencies. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, ATS generated approximately 46% of its revenue from federal civilian agencies, 18% from defense and homeland security agencies, 26% from commercial customers, including government sponsored enterprises, and 10% from state and local customers. ATS’ largest clients in the first quarter ended March 31, 2007 were HUD and Fannie Mae, representing approximately 24% and 18%, respectively, of its total revenue.
We derive substantially all of our revenues from fees for consulting services. We generate these fees from contracts with various payment arrangements, including time and materials contracts, fixed-price contracts and cost-reimbursable contracts. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, revenues from these contract types were approximately 56%, 39% and 5%, respectively, of total revenues. We typically issue invoices monthly to manage outstanding accounts receivable balances. We recognize revenues on time and materials contracts based on actual hours delivered at the contracted billable hourly rate plus the cost of materials incurred. We recognize revenues on fixed-price contracts using the percentage-of-completion method based on costs we incurred in relation to total estimated costs. However, if the contract has a service element, we recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. We recognize cost-type contracts to the extent of costs incurred plus a proportionate amount of fee earned.
On occasion, we enter into contracts that include the delivery of a combination of two or more of our service offerings. Typically, such multiple-element arrangements incorporate the design, development, or modification of systems and an ongoing obligation to manage, staff, maintain, host, or otherwise run solutions and systems provided to the client. Such contracts are divided into separate units of accounting and the total arrangement fee is allocated to each unit based on its relative fair value. In accordance with our revenue recognition policy, revenue is recognized separately for each element.
18
The fees under certain government contracts may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions that measure actual performance against targets or other criteria. Such incentive fee awards or penalties are included in revenue at the time the amounts can be reasonably determined. Provisions for anticipated contract losses are recognized at the time they become known.
In the three months ended March 31, 2007, we derived approximately 14% of our revenues through relationships with prime contractors, who contract directly with the end-client and subcontract with us.
Our most significant expense is direct cost, which consists primarily of project personnel salaries and benefits, and direct expenses incurred to complete projects. The number of consulting personnel assigned to a project will vary according to the size, complexity, duration, and demands of the project. As of March 31, 2007, we had 442 personnel that worked on our contracts.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs associated with our executive management, finance and administrative groups, human resources, sales and marketing personnel, and costs associated with marketing and bidding on future projects, unassigned consulting personnel, personnel training, occupancy costs, depreciation and amortization, travel and all other branch and corporate costs.
Investment and other income consist primarily of interest income earned on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Contract Backlog
We define backlog as the future revenue we expect to receive from our contracts and other engagements. We generally include in backlog the estimated revenue represented by contract options that have been priced, though not exercised. We do not include any estimate of revenue relating to potential future delivery orders that might be awarded under our General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule contracts, other Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts, or other contract vehicles that are also held by a large number of firms, an order which potential further delivery orders or task orders might be issued by any of a large number of different agencies and are likely to be subject to a competitive bidding process. Our backlog as at March 31, 2007 was approximately $150.0 million.
Recent Events
On January 16, 2007, we announced that the board of directors of the Company had approved the repurchase of up to $15 million of either the Company’s common stock or its warrants. Through May 10, 2007, the Company had repurchased a total of 2,811,400 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $13.5 million.
On January 16, 2007, the Company announced it would repurchase 2,625,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the founders at $0.011 per share. This program was completed in January 2007.
On January 16, 2007, the Company announced that it would repurchase shares of those shareholders that voted against the acquisition of ATSI and requested that their shares (2,906,355) be redeemed at the then per share trust value of $5.77 per share. This program was completed in January 2007.
Results of Operations
We acquired ATSI as of close of business on January 15, 2007, and acquired RISI on March 1, 2007. Prior to our acquisition of the ATSI business, we had no operations and generated no revenue. Accordingly, we are presenting two comparisons. The first compares our results for the three months ended March 31, 2007 to the three months ended March 31, 2006. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2007, reflect 2.5 months of revenues and expenses for ATSI and 1 month of revenues and expenses for RISI, which correspond to the dates these companies were acquired during the quarter. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2006, only reflect the results of ATS which had no operations during the quarter. The second comparison we are providing is that of ATSI for the period from November 1, 2006 through January 15, 2007, the last day of operations before it was acquired by ATS, to the three months ended January 31, 2006. There were only 2.5 months of operations for the period ended January 15, 2007.

Our revenues and operating results may be subject to significant variation from quarter to quarter depending on a number of factors, including the progress of contracts, revenue earned on contracts, the number of billable days in a quarter, the timing of the pass-through of other direct costs, the commencement and completion of contracts during any particular quarter, the schedule of the government agencies for awarding contracts, the term of each contract that we have been awarded, and general economic conditions. Because a significant portion of our expenses, such as personnel and facilities costs, are fixed in the short term, successful contract performance and variation in the volume of activity, as well as in the number of contracts commenced or completed during any quarter, may cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter.
The Federal Government’s fiscal year ends September 30. If the budget for the next fiscal year has not been approved by that date, our clients may have to suspend engagements that we are working on until a budget has been approved. Such suspensions may cause us to realize lower revenues in the fourth quarter of the year. Further, a change in presidential administrations and in senior government officials may negatively affect the rate at which the Federal Government purchases technology.
As a result of the factors above, period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results may not be meaningful. You should not rely on these comparisons as indicators of future performance as no assurances can be given that quarterly results will not fluctuate, causing a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
Results of Operations for the Successor Company for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007, compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006.
Revenues and cost of services. The Company had no operating revenues or cost of services in the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $23.5 million of revenues and $16.5 million cost of services in the three months ended March 31, 2007. The revenues for 2007 were due to our acquisitions of ATSI and RISI during the quarter. There was no significant change in contract revenue between the periods.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses of $610,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were related to the pursuit of potential acquisition candidates. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the $6.0 million of selling, general and administrative expenses were related to the operations of ATSI and RISI which were acquired during the quarter.
Interest income and expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, we earned $144,000 of net interest income. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, we had interest income of $1.2 million. The interest income for 2006 was primarily related to the earnings on funds that were held in trust until the Company consummated an acquisition, which occurred on January 16, 2007.
Loss on derivative liabilities attributable to warrants. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006, we incurred losses of $6.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively, on the Company’s warrants. Because the warrant agreement, until March 14, 2007, was not clear as to whether the we were required to net cash settle the warrants if we were unable to deliver common stock to the warrant holders, we were required to mark the warrants to market as liabilities and therefore recognize gains or losses on the increase or decrease in the fair market value of the warrants. Effective March 14, 2007, the warrant agreement was clarified to state that we are not required to net cash settle the instruments if we are unable to deliver shares of common stock to the warrant holders. We are therefore no longer required to mark the warrants to market and the warrants have been reclassified as stockholders’ equity from liabilities.
Provision for income taxes. Our income tax expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 were $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The effective tax rates for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 were (1.6%) and (2.6%), respectively. The effective tax rates were impacted by the loss on warrants, which is a non-deductible expense.
Results of Operations for the Predecessor Company for the period from November 1, 2006 through January 15, 2007, compared with the Three Months Ended January 31, 2006.
Revenues. Revenues decreased by 17.7% to $21.4 million for the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007, from $26.1 million for the three months ended January 31, 2006. The decline in revenues between these two periods is primarily related to the fact that the period ended January 15, 2007 is a shorter period. There were not significant changes in contract revenues during the period.
21
Cost of services. Cost of services decreased by 16.7% to $15.5 million for the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007, from $18.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2006. Cost of services did not decrease in proportion to the decrease in revenues primarily due to the non-recovery of all increases of compensation during this period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 102.5% to $12.7 million in the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007 from $6.3 million for the three months ended January 31, 2006. The primary reasons for this increase were factors related to the acquisition of ATSI by ATS. ATSI was required to pay $4.7 million in retention bonuses, including associated payroll taxes, $1.7 million to make final payments under a phantom stock plan, including dividends, and $0.3 million in legal and accounting fees associated with the transaction.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 35.6% to $0.1 million for the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007, from $0.2 million for the three months ended January 31, 2006.
Operating income (loss). Operating income decreased 784.9% to a $6.8 million loss for the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007 from income of $1.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2006, due to the factors discussed above.
Interest income (expense). Interest expense increased by 112.8% to ($108,000) in the 2.5 months ended January 15, 2007 from ($51,000) for the three months ended January 31, 2006, because of higher borrowings during this period.
Other income. Other income increased by 583.8% to $54,000 for the 2.5 month period ended January 15, 2007 from $8,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2006.
Provision for income taxes. Our income tax expense for the 2.5 months ended January 15, 2007 and the three months ended January 31, 2006 were $(2.5) million and $0.4 million, respectively. The effective tax rates for the periods ended January 15, 2007 and January 31, 2006 were 36.8% and 40.0%, respectively.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial Condition. Total assets decreased $8.2 million to $115.0 million as of March 31, 2007 compared to $123.2 million as of December 31, 2006, due to our acquisitions during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. At March 31, 2007, we no longer had $121.0 million in short term investments as we did at December 31, 2006 as such funds were used to acquire ATSI and RISI.
Our total liabilities increased to $21.4 million as of March 31, 2007 from $15.2 million as of December 31, 2006, also due primarily to our acquisitions. Accordingly, our accounts payable increased to $7.5 million at March 31, 2007 from $1.0 million at December 31, 2006, our accrued salaries and related taxes, and accrued vacation both went from $0 at December 31, 2006 to $3.9 million and $2.6 million at March 31, 2007, respectively. Our deferred income taxes, net of current portion, also increased from $0 at December 31, 2006 to $6.2 million at March 31, 2007. These increases in liabilities were offset by the decrease in warrant liabilities from $13.9 million at December 31, 2006 to $0 at March 31, 2007. As the warrant agreement was clarified effective March 14, 2007 to provide that we are not required to net cash settle the instruments if we are unable to deliver shares of common stock to the warrant holders, we are therefore no longer required to mark the warrants to market and the warrants were classified during the quarter as stockholders’ equity rather than liabilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Our primary liquidity needs are to finance the costs of operations, acquire capital assets and to make selective strategic acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term requirements through funds generated from operations and from a credit facility with Bank of America, which is currently being negotiated. Our strategic acquisition cash requirements will also be funded by cash generated from operations and the aforementioned credit facility.
Net cash used by operating activities was $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Cash used by operating activities is primarily driven by net loss, adjusted for working capital changes, which were principally changes in accounts receivable, current assets and accrued expenses.
22
Net cash provided by investing activities was $40.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we had $121.0 million from the sale of U.S. government securities and $1.4 million from deferred acquisition costs, while investing $80.8 million in the acquisition of ATSI and $1.0 million in the acquisition of RISI which comprised the majority of this investing activity.
Net cash used by financing activities was $30.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This was principally used to repurchase shares of the company’s common stock.
We expect to retain future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We currently maintain a $9.0 million line of credit with Bank of America, bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate plus between 150 to 225 basis points per annum, depending on the amount borrowed, which expires on May 30, 2007. The LIBOR Rate at March 31, 2007 was 5.32%. We are in the process of finalizing negotiations with Bank of America on a line of credit for $25.0 million with the ability to expand it by another $25.0 million. We anticipate having this line in place by the end of May 2007. As of March 31, 2007, we had no outstanding balance on the line of credit.
Under some of our fixed-price contracts, we receive advance payments for work to be performed in future months. If we do not perform the work, the unearned portion of these advances will be returned to our clients. At March 31, 2007, our accounts receivable turnover rate, net of advance payments on contracts, was approximately five times a year.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the three months ended March 31, 2007, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 provides a new single authoritative definition of fair value and enhanced guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. It requires additional disclosures related to the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating what effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity, at specified election dates, to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to provide entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently, without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for accounting periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 159 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008 and is currently assessing the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on the consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are exposed to certain financial market risks, the most predominant being fluctuations in interest rates for borrowings under our credit facility. As of March 31, 2007, we had no outstanding balance under our line of credit. We currently invest our excess funds in an overnight bank sweep account.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Our management performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of March 31, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2007, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As noted in our Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on the criteria set forth in the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). We determined that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective because of the following material weaknesses as described below:
1. Through December 31, 2006, we had no operations, no full-time personnel and very few personnel of any kind. Our activities from inception in late 2005 and into 2006 focused on completing our initial public offering, identifying acquisition candidates and then completing the acquisition of ATSI. As a result of these factors, we had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to have in place adequate internal control. The material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting relates primarily to our inability to segregate duties.
2. In addition, we lacked documentation of the policies and procedures that were in place.
With the completion of the acquisition of ATSI in January 2007, we have additional personnel, access to financial and internal control systems, and actual operations. We have begun to address the internal control weaknesses summarized above beginning in the first quarter of 2007, with the goal of eliminating such deficiencies by the end of 2007. In addition, the acquisition of ATSI will require the development of more robust disclosure controls and procedures, which we also expect to develop during 2007.
It was determined during the audit of ATSI’s fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, that ATSI had material weaknesses in its internal control. ATSI did not have in place policies or controls that required the accounting and finance department to review and evaluate contracts that were at risk to determine the proper revenue recognition. In addition, ATSI did not have a process in place to review the collectibility of its accounts receivable on a regular basis. Subsequent to the acquisition of ATSI by the Company, procedures have been put in place to address these two issues and to monitor them on a regular basis.
There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the first quarter of 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no assessment of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management’s override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
25
From time to time, we are involved in various legal matters and proceedings concerning matters arising in the ordinary course of business. We currently believe that any ultimate liability arising out of these matters and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There are no material updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
