Our Company
We are a leading provider of managed print and promotional procurement solutions to corporate clients in the United States. With proprietary technology, an extensive supplier network and domain expertise, the Company procures, manages and delivers printed products as part of a comprehensive outsourced enterprise solution. Our technology is designed to capitalize on excess manufacturing capacity and other inefficiencies in the traditional print supply chain to obtain favorable pricing and to deliver high-quality products and services for our clients.
Our proprietary software applications and database, PPM4™, create a fully-integrated solution that stores, analyzes and tracks the production capabilities of our supplier network, as well as quote and price data for print jobs. As a result, we believe PPM4™ contains one of the largest independent repositories of equipment profiles and price data for print suppliers in the United States. We leverage our technology to match our print jobs with suppliers that are optimally suited to meet the client's needs at a highly competitive price. Our procurement managers use PPM4™ to manage the print procurement process from end-to-end.
Through our network of over 6,000 suppliers, we offer a full range of print, fulfillment and logistics services that allow us to procure printed products on virtually any substrate. The breadth of our product offerings and services and the depth of our supplier network enable us to fulfill up to 100% of the print procurement needs of our clients. By leveraging our technology platform, our clients are able to reduce overhead costs, redeploy internal resources and obtain favorable pricing and service terms. In addition, our ability to track individual transactions and provide customized reports detailing print procurement activity on an enterprise-wide-basis provides our clients with greater visibility and control of their print expenditures.
We generate revenue by procuring and purchasing printed products from our suppliers and selling those products to our clients. We procure printed products for clients across a wide range of industries, such as advertising, consumer products, publishing and retail. Our clients fall into two categories, enterprise and transactional. We enter into arrangements with our enterprise clients to provide some, or substantially all, of their printed products, typically on a recurring basis. We provide printed products to our transactional clients on an order-by-order basis. For the year ended December 31, 2007, enterprise and transactional clients accounted for 62% and 38% of our revenue, respectively. For the
3
year ended December 31, 2006, enterprise and transactional clients accounted for 70% and 30% of our revenue, respectively.
We were formed in 2001, commenced operations in 2002 and converted from a limited liability company to a corporation in January 2006. Our corporate headquarters are located in Chicago, Illinois. From our inception through December 31, 2007, we served over 5,700 clients, through 4,400 suppliers. We have increased our revenue from $5.0 million in 2002 to $288.4 million in 2007, representing a compound annual growth rate of 97%. In 2007, our revenue was $288.4 million, compared to $160.5 million in 2006.

In August 2006, we completed an initial public offering of shares of our common stock. We offered and sold 7,060,000 shares of our common stock and certain selling stockholders offered and sold an additional 5,118,500 shares at a price of $9.00 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the 5,118,500 shares sold by certain selling stockholders. After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering related expenses, our net proceeds from the initial public offering were approximately $47.8 million.
Follow-On Public Offering
In January 2007, we completed a follow-on public offering of shares of our common stock. We offered and sold 3,000,000 shares of our common stock and certain selling shareholders offered and sold an additional 5,000,000 shares at a price of $13.50 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the 5,000,000 shares sold by certain selling stockholders. After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering related expenses, our net proceeds from the offering were approximately $37.8 million.
Acquisitions
In March 2007, we acquired Spectrum Printing Services, a provider of print management services as well as promotional products, apparel and complete warehousing and fulfillment services. As a result of the acquisition, we established a strategic presence in the Southern California print market and added five additional sales executives and their corresponding production teams.

Industry Overview
Our business of providing print procurement solutions intersects two large and growing industries, commercial printing and business process outsourcing, or BPO. Total shipments in the worldwide commercial print industry were approximately $373 billion in 2006 and are expected to increase by an average of $9 billion per year through 2010, according to a 2006 Datamonitor global commercial printing industry profile. The print industry includes the following product categories:
- •
- direct mail and other direct marketing materials;
- •
- basic business printing, including business forms, stationery and business cards;
- •
- promotional printing, which includes brochures, direct mail and catalogs;
- •
- publications, including magazines, books and directories;
- •
- bill of material printing, which consists of customized packaging, labels and other shipping materials;
- •
- promotional products, such as t-shirts, calendars and advertisements;
- •
- warehousing, pick and pack distribution and print on demand; and
- •
- multimedia, including CDs and DVDs.
In addition, the U.S. print industry is highly fragmented, with an estimated 39,300 printing plants. In 2006, the ten largest commercial print companies accounted for only approximately 16% of the total domestic print market. The traditional process of designing, procuring and producing a print order requires extensive collaboration by printers, designers, brokers and other middlemen and is often highly inefficient for the customer, who typically pays a mark-up at each intermediate stage of the supply chain. Print procurement is often dispersed across several areas of a business enterprise, including sales, marketing, communications and finance.
To become more competitive, many businesses seek to focus on core competencies and outsource non-core business functions, such as print procurement. The National Association of Procurement Managers ranked print procurement as the third most significant resource procurement outsourcing opportunity for U.S. businesses, underscoring this trend. According to a 2006 International Data Corporation global BPO forecast, the worldwide market for BPO is estimated to grow from $384 billion in 2005 to $618 billion in 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate of 10%. Consolidating all print activities across the organization represents an opportunity to reduce total print expenditure and decrease the number of vendors in the print supply chain. Applying software and database technology to manage the print procurement process also provides for enhanced tracking and auditing capabilities.
In recent years, the print industry has been impacted by developments in technology, including enhanced output capacity of printing presses and increased utilization of Internet-based communications and digital printing. These developments have lowered barriers to entry and reduced
5
the utilization of printing presses. As a result, the print industry has historically experienced significant excess manufacturing capacity and the market for printed products has become increasingly commoditized. As developments in technology enable more print companies to provide a broad range of products and services, there are fewer opportunities for print vendors to charge premium prices based on product and service differentiation.
We seek to capitalize on the trends impacting the commercial print industry and the movement towards increased outsourcing of non-core business functions by leveraging our propriety technology, expansive database, extensive supplier network and purchasing power.
Our Solution
Utilizing our proprietary technology and database, we are able to create a competitive bid process to procure, purchase and deliver printed products to our clients. Our network of over 6,000 suppliers offers a wide variety of printed products and a full range of print, fulfillment and logistics services.
Our print procurement software seeks to capitalize on excess manufacturing capacity and other inefficiencies in the traditional print supply chain. We believe that the most competitive price bids we obtain from our suppliers are submitted by the suppliers with the most unused capacity. We utilize our technology and a competitive bid process to:
- •
- greatly increase the number of suppliers that our clients can efficiently access;
- •
- obtain favorable pricing and deliver high quality products and services for our clients; and
- •
- aggregate our purchasing power.
Our proprietary software applications and database, PPM4™, streamline the print procurement process for our clients by eliminating inefficiencies within the traditional print supply chain and expediting production. However, our technology cannot manage all of the variables associated with procuring a print job, which often involves extensive collaboration among numerous parties. Effective management of the procurement process requires that dedicated and experienced personnel work closely with both clients and print suppliers. Our account executives and procurement managers perform that critical function.
Account executives act as the primary sales staff to our clients. Procurement managers manage the entire print procurement process for our clients to ensure timely and accurate delivery of the finished product. For each print job we receive, a procurement manager uses our technology to gather print specifications, solicit bids from the optimal suppliers, establish pricing with the client, manage print production and purchase and coordinate the delivery of the finished product.
Each client is assigned an account executive and procurement manager, who develop contacts with client personnel responsible for authorizing and making print purchases. Our largest clients often are assigned multiple procurement managers. In certain cases, our procurement managers function on-site at the client. In other cases, we designate an employee of the client to function as our procurement manager and reimburse the client for the employee's compensation costs. Whether on-site or off-site, a procurement manager functions as a virtual employee of the client. As of December 31, 2007, we had 250 procurement managers, including 38 procurement managers working on-site at our clients.
Although our clients fall into two categories, enterprise and transactional, the procurement process for each client category is substantially similar. A typical print job moves through our solution in ten steps.
Step 1—Gather print specifications. After the account executive or procurement manager identifies a sale opportunity, a procurement manager discusses the details and timeline for the print job with the
6
client. PPM4™ automatically generates a customized data entry screen based on the type of printed product and guides the procurement manager to enter the required job specifications.
Step 2—Select appropriate suppliers. Based on the historical transaction data and supplier capability information contained in our database, PPM4™ generates a list of potential suppliers within our extensive network with the most efficient equipment profiles to produce the job. The procurement manager may select suppliers from this list or select suppliers suggested by the client. Our technology also enables the procurement manager to disaggregate the job into its component parts and put each part out for competitive bid in order to generate additional savings for the client. After selecting the list of optimal suppliers, the procurement manager electronically transfers the job specifications into an e-mail or e-fax in the form of a request for proposal and sends it to those suppliers.
Step 3—Receive bids from suppliers. The selected suppliers respond to our request for proposal by submitting bids to us. Upon receipt, the procurement manager enters the bid information into our database and generates a report that details and sorts the bids by cost, quality and logistical considerations.
Step 4—Compare bids to proprietary data. The procurement manager can use PPM4™ to compare the bids received from the suppliers to similar transactions in our database. If the current bids deviate from the competitive price range suggested by this data in a manner that is unfavorable to our client, the procurement manager uses our data to negotiate more favorable pricing with the selected suppliers or re-submits the specifications to different suppliers.
Step 5—Submit quote to client. The procurement manager works with the account executive to prepare a price quote for the print job. The account executive submits the quote to the client, specifying the total cost to the client for the printed product and the timing and delivery terms.
Step 6—Execute quote and print order. The client accepts the quote by executing it and returning a signed copy to us. The procurement manager uses PPM4™ to automatically convert the quote into a print order. The print order is sent by e-mail or e-fax to the approved supplier or suppliers for execution. We are now contractually obligated to provide the product to our client and the supplier or suppliers are contractually obligated to provide the product to us. The supplier begins the print process.
Step 7—Manage print process. The completion of the print process is managed by the procurement manager through a checklist of dates, milestones and deliverables that is monitored electronically. PPM4™ generates automatic reminders to ensure the product is properly produced in accordance with the client's specifications and timeline.
Step 8—Perform final quality control check. Prior to production of the entire print quantity, the supplier submits a contract proof of the finished product to the client and procurement manager for approval. Upon written approval of the proof by the client, the supplier prints the finished product.
Step 9—Deliver finished product. When printing is completed, we purchase the finished product from the supplier and coordinate delivery to the destination specified by the client.
Step 10—Generate and reconcile invoices. Upon shipment of the finished product, the supplier issues an invoice to us for the cost of the job and our technology automatically converts the quote executed by our client into an invoice that we issue to the client. PPM4™ reconciles the supplier's invoice to the print order to ensure that the supplier adhered to the pricing and other terms set forth in the print order.
The duration of this ten-step process varies based on the type of printed product. For example, this process may take less than 24 hours for limited quantities of a four-page brochure, but last over one month for 1,000,000 copies of a hard cover book.
7
We regularly request that our clients complete a customer scorecard, which allows them to rate us and our suppliers based on product quality, customer service and overall satisfaction. The data contained in these scorecards is stored in our database and used by our procurement managers during the supplier selection process.
Our Proprietary Technology
PPM4™ is a fully-integrated, proprietary solution that stores equipment profiles for our supplier network and price data for jobs we quote and execute, which allows us to match print jobs with the suppliers in our network that are optimally suited to produce the job at a highly competitive price. Our technology also allows us to efficiently manage the critical aspects of the print procurement process, including gathering job specifications, identifying suppliers, establishing pricing, managing print production and coordinating purchase and delivery of the finished product.
Our database stores the production capabilities of our supplier network, as well as price and quote data for bids we receive and transaction we execute. As a result, we believe PPM4™ contains one of the largest independent repositories of equipment profiles and price data for print suppliers in the United States. Our procurement managers use this data to discover excess print manufacturing capacity, select optimal suppliers, negotiate favorable pricing, and efficiently procure high-quality products and services for our clients.
With each new print job process, we collect and store additional data in our proprietary database. As the number of print jobs we complete increases, our database further enhances our competitive position and our ability to obtain favorable pricing for our clients.
We believe PPM4™ allows us to procure print more efficiently than traditional manual or semi-automated systems used by many printers and print brokers in the marketplace. PPM4™ includes the following features:
- •
- "4caster." Our proprietary database provides real-time cost estimates for potential print jobs within our major product categories based upon the historical data we have collected from print jobs with similar specifications. These estimates are used by our account executives during the sales process and procurement managers to compare bids and negotiate favorable pricing. Some of our largest suppliers have provided us with pricing tables covering specific product categories, which have also enhanced our ability to discover competitive pricing.
- •
- Customized order management. PPM4™ automatically generates customized data entry screens based on product type and guides the procurement manager to enter the required job specifications. For example, if a procurement manager selects "envelope" in the product field, the screen will automatically prompt the procurement manager to specify the size, paper type, window size and placement and display style.
- •
- Cost management. PPM4™ reconciles supplier invoices to executed print orders to ensure the supplier adhered to the pricing and other terms contained in the print order. In addition, it includes checks and balances that allow us to monitor important financial indicators relating to a print order, such as projected gross margin and significant job alterations.
- •
- Standardized reporting. Our solution generates transaction reports that contain quote, supplier capability, price and customer service information regarding the print jobs the client has completed with us. These reports can be customized, sorted and searched based on a specified time period or the type of printed product, price or supplier. In addition, the reports give our clients insight into their print spend for each individual print job and on an enterprise-wide basis, which allows the client to track the amounts it spends on printed products.
8
- •
- Task-tracking. Our solution creates a work order checklist that sends e-mail reminders to our procurement managers regarding the time elapsed between certain milestones and the completion of specified deliverables. These automated notifications enable our procurement managers to focus on more critical aspects of the print process and eliminate delays.
- •
- Open architecture. PPM4™ allows us to integrate clients and suppliers into our solution. Some of our larger clients have limited, secure access to our database, which they can use to directly access their transaction data.
- •
- Historical price baseline. Some of our larger clients have provided us with pricing data for print jobs they completed before they began to use our solution. For these clients, PPM4™ automatically compares our current price for a print job to the price obtained by the client for a comparable historical job, which allows us to demonstrate on an ongoing basis the cost savings we provide.
We have also created customized Internet-based stores, which we refer to as IW stores, for certain of our clients that allow them to order pre-selected products, such as personalized business stationery, marketing brochures and promotional products, through an automated ordering process.
Our Clients
We procure printed products for corporate clients across a wide range of industries, such as advertising, consumer products, manufacturing, publishing and retail. Our clients also include printers that outsource jobs to us because they do not have the requisite capabilities or capacity to complete an order. From our inception through December 31, 2007, we served over 5,700 clients through 4,400 suppliers. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, ServiceMaster accounted for 14% and 12% of our revenue, respectively. All remaining revenue for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 was derived from customers that each accounted for less than 10% of our annual revenue. Revenue from our top-ten clients accounted for 47% and 41% of our revenue in 2006 and 2007, respectively.
We generate revenue by procuring and purchasing printed products from our suppliers and selling those products to our clients. Our clients fall into two categories, enterprise and transactional. We enter into contracts with our enterprise clients to provide some or substantially all of their printed products, typically on a recurring basis. Our contracts with our enterprise clients generally have an open-ended term with a termination right upon advance notice ranging from 90 days to twelve months. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, enterprise clients accounted for 70% and 62% of our revenue, respectively. We provide printed products to our transactional clients on an order-by-order basis. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, transactional clients accounted for 30% and 38% of our revenue, respectively.
As part of our growth strategy, we seek to expand our base of transactional clients by hiring account executives, or acquiring groups of them, with established client relationships. We also aim to sell our enterprise solution to our transactional clients to capture a greater portion of their recurring print expenditures.
As of December 31, 2007, approximately 22% of our clients were located in Illinois. In order to expand our client base, we intend to recruit more account executives in other major print markets in the Northeast, Southeast and Northwest regions of the United States. We believe that the breadth of our supplier network will allow us to expand into new geographic markets with little upfront cost.

Our Products and Services
We offer a full range of print, fulfillment and logistics services that allows us to procure printed products on virtually any substrate. The printed products we procure for our clients may be printed with any of the eight major types of printing, which include offset sheet-fed, web offset, digital offset, letterpress, screen printing, waterless, flexography and gravure, as well as several forms of specialty printing.
Our major products include:
direct mail pieces books brochures catalogues point-of-purchase displays magazines packaging | CDs/DVDs promotional products annual reports envelopes labels calendars folders | posters newsletters billboards playing cards binders t-shirts games stationery | postcards stickers bags magnets warehousing pick and pack distribution print on demand |
We offer a comprehensive range of fulfillment and logistics services, such as kitting and assembly, inventory management and pre-sorting postage. These services are often essential to the completion of the finished product. For example, we assemble multi-level direct mailings, insurance benefits packages and coupons and promotional incentives that are included with credit card and bank statements. We also provide creative services, including copywriting, graphics and website design, identity work and marketing collateral development, and pre-media services, such as image and print-ready page processing and proofing capabilities.
We agree to provide our clients with products that conform with the industry standard of a "commercially reasonable quality" and our suppliers in turn agree to provide us with products of the same quality. The quotes we execute with our clients include customary provisions that limit the amount of our liability for product defects. To date, we have not experienced significant claims or liabilities relating to defective products.
Our Supplier Network
�� Our network of 6,000 suppliers include printers, graphic designers, paper mills and merchants, digital imaging companies, specialty binders, finishing and engraving firms and fulfillment and distribution centers. These suppliers have been selected from among thousands of potential suppliers worldwide based on their ability to effectively serve our clients on the basis of price, quality and customer service. We direct requests for proposal from our clients to potential suppliers based on historical pricing data, quality control rankings, geographic proximity to a client or other criteria specified by our clients.
In 2007, our top-ten suppliers accounted for approximately 18% of our cost of goods sold and no supplier accounted for over 3.6% of our cost of goods sold. As of December 31, 2007, a majority of our top-100 suppliers had executed supply and service agreements with us. These agreements have an open-ended term with a termination right on 60-days prior written notice and contain non-solicitation provisions that prohibit the supplier from soliciting any client for which the supplier has executed a print order for a specified period, generally 24 months, after the expiration of the agreement. Our contractual relationship with the remaining suppliers in our network is governed solely by any print orders we execute with those suppliers on an order-by-order basis.
We have established a quality control program that is designed to ensure that we deliver high-quality printed products and services to our clients through the suppliers in our network. As part
10
of this program, we train our procurement managers to accurately gather job specifications and create a checklist to ensure that each item in the print order has been approved by the client. In addition, we regularly request that our clients complete customer scorecards, which are stored in our database and converted into quality control reports. These quality control reports are accessible to our procurement managers through PPM4™ and are used during the supplier selection process. Our quality control standards are designed to ensure that our clients receive high quality printed products regardless of the supplier that prints the product.
Sales and Marketing
Our account executives sell our print procurement services to corporate clients in the United States. As of December 31, 2007, we had 221 account executives, 77 of whom were independent contractors and 144 of whom were employees. Our agreements with our account executives require them to market and sell print procurement services for us on an exclusive basis and contain non-compete and non-solicitation provisions that apply during and for a specified period after the term of their service.
Our new client acquisition efforts generally are targeted geographically based on the location of our account executives. Our account tracking solution, IW Pipeline™, which assigns account responsibility for both existing and prospective clients, monitors the sales conversion process and tracks sales activity. An important aspect of our sales process is our periodic analysis of a prospective client's historic print expenditures, including production and payroll expenses, to demonstrate the potential savings that could be achieved by using our solution.
We expect to continue our growth by recruiting and retaining highly qualified account executives and providing them with the tools to be successful in the marketplace. There are a large number of print sales representatives in North America and we believe that we will be able to identify qualified account executives from this pool of individuals. Candidates are recruited through Internet postings, advertisements in industry publications, industry event attendance, Internet research, referrals and word-of-mouth networking. We also expect to augment our sales force through selective acquisitions of print service businesses, including print brokers that include experienced sales personnel with established client relationships.
We believe that we offer account executives an attractive opportunity in the print industry because they can utilize our vast supplier network, proprietary pricing data and customized order management solution to sell to their clients virtually any printed product at a highly competitive price. In addition, the diverse production and service capabilities of the suppliers in our network provide our account executives the opportunity to deliver a more complete product and service offering to their clients. We believe we can better attract and retain experienced account executives than our competitors because of the breadth of products offered by our supplier network.
To date, we have been successful in attracting and retaining qualified account executives. As of December 31, 2007, our account executives had an average of over 15 years of sales experience in the print industry, which in certain cases included employment as sales representatives for some of the largest printers in the United States. The integration process consists of training with our sales management, as well as access to a variety of sales and educational resources that are available on our Intranet. Because the account executives we hire generally have significant sales experience, they can begin marketing our services after limited training on our model and systems.
Competition
We operate in the print industry and several print-related industries, including paper and pulp, graphics art and digital imaging and fulfillment and logistics. As a result, we compete on some level
11
with virtually every company that is involved in printing, from printers to graphic designers, pre-press firms, paper manufacturers and fulfillment companies.
Our primary competitors are printers that employ traditional methods of marketing and selling their printed materials. The printers with which we compete generally own and operate their own printing equipment and typically serve clients only within the specific product categories and print types that their equipment produces.
Some of these printers, such as Quad/Graphics, Workflow/Relizon and R.R. Donnelley, have larger client bases and significantly more resources than we do.
We also compete with print distributors and brokers. These competitors generally do not own or operate printing equipment, and typically work with a limited number of suppliers and have minimal financial investment in the quality of the products produced for their clients. Our industry experience indicates that several of these competitors, such as Cirqit and Newline/Noosh, offer print procurement services or enterprise software applications for the print industry.
The principal elements of competition in print procurement are price, product quality, customer service and reliability. Although we believe our business delivers products and services on competitive terms, our business and the print procurement industry are relatively new and are evolving rapidly. Print buyers may prefer to utilize the traditional services offered by the printers with whom we compete. Alternatively, some of these printers may elect to compete with us directly by offering print procurement services or enterprise software applications, and their well-established client relationships industry knowledge, brand recognition, financial and marketing capabilities, technical resources and pricing flexibility may provide them with a competitive advantage over us.
Intellectual Property
We rely primarily on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws as well as restrictions and patents to protect our intellectual property rights. As of December 31, 2007, we have been issued one US Patent and have another patent application pending related to our proprietary sourcing methods, and expect to apply for additional patents in the future. We also protect our proprietary technology through confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our employees and independent contractors.
Our IT infrastructure provides a high level of security for our proprietary database. The storage system for our proprietary data is designed to ensure that power and hardware failures do not result in the loss of critical data. The proprietary data is protected from unauthorized access through a combination of physical and logical security measures, including firewalls, antivirus software, anti-spy software, password encryption and physical security, with access limited to authorized IT personnel. In addition to our security infrastructure, our system is backed up and stored in a redundant location daily to prevent the loss of our proprietary data due to catastrophic failures or natural disasters. We test our IT recovery ability semi-annually to verify that we can recover our business critical systems in a timely fashion.
Employees
As of December 31, 2007, we had 567 employees and independent contractors, consisting of 96 corporate staff, 250 procurement managers and 221 account executives. We consider our employee relations to be strong.

Risks Related to Our Business
Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business, prospects and future financial performance.
We formed our business in September 2001 and have a limited operating history, which makes evaluating our current business and prospects difficult. The revenue and income potential of our business is uncertain, which makes it difficult to predict accurately our future financial performance. We may face periods where our financial performance falls below investor expectations. As a result, the price of our common stock may decline.
Competition could substantially impair our business and our operating results.
We operate in the print industry and several print-related industries, including paper and pulp, graphics art and pre-press and fulfillment and logistics. Competition in these industries is intense. Our primary competitors are printers that employ traditional methods of marketing and selling their printed materials. Many of these printers, such as Quad/Graphics, Workflow/Relizon and R.R. Donnelley have larger client bases and significantly more resources than we do. Print buyers may prefer to utilize the traditional services offered by the printers with whom we compete. Alternatively, some of these printers may elect to offer outsourced print procurement services or enterprise software applications, and their well-established client relationships, industry knowledge, brand recognition, financial and marketing capabilities, technical resources and pricing flexibility may provide them with a competitive advantage over us.
13
We also compete with a number of print suppliers, distributors and brokers. Several of these competitors, such as Cirqit, Workflow/Relizon and Newline/Noosh offer outsourced print procurement services or enterprise software applications for the print industry. These competitors, or new competitors that enter the market, may also offer print procurement services similar to and competitive with or superior to our current or proposed offerings and achieve greater market acceptance. In addition, a software solution and database similar to PPM4™ could be created over time by a competitor with sufficient financial resources and comparable experience in the print industry. If our competitors are able to offer comparable services, we could lose clients, and our market share could decline.
Our competitors may also establish cooperative relationships to increase their ability to address client needs. Increased competition may lead to revenue reductions, reduced gross margins or a loss of market share, any one of which could harm our business.
If our services do not achieve widespread commercial acceptance, our business will suffer.
Most companies currently coordinate the procurement and management of their print orders with their own employees using a combination of telephone, facsimile, e-mail and the Internet. Growth in the demand for our services depends on the adoption of our outsourcing model for print procurement services. We may not be able to persuade prospective clients to change their traditional print management processes. Our business could suffer if our services are not accepted or are not perceived by the marketplace to be effective or valuable.
If our suppliers do not meet our needs or expectations, or those of our clients, our business would suffer.
The success of our business depends to a large extent on our relationships with our clients and our reputation for high quality printed products and print procurement services. We do not own printing presses or other printing equipment. Instead, we rely on third-party suppliers to deliver the printed products and services that we provide to our clients. As a result, we do not directly control the manufacturing of the products or the services provided by our suppliers. If our suppliers do not meet our needs or expectations, or those of our clients, our professional reputation may be damaged, our business would be harmed and we could be subject to legal liability.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a relatively limited number of large clients and any loss of, or decrease in sales to, these clients could harm our results of operations.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a relatively limited number of large clients. Revenue from our top-ten clients accounted for 46%, 47% and 41% of our revenue during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. In 2006, our largest client accounted for 14% of our revenue. In 2007, our largest client accounted for 12% of our revenue. We are likely to continue to experience ongoing client concentration, particularly if we are successful in attracting large enterprise clients. Moreover, there may be a loss or reduction in business from one or more of our large clients. It is also possible that revenue from these clients, either individually or as a group, may not reach or exceed historical levels in any future period. The loss or significant reduction of business from our major clients would adversely affect our results of operations.
We are subject to the internal control evaluation and attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we include in our annual report our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year. Furthermore, our independent registered public accounting firm, ("Firm") is required to report on whether it believes we maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over
14
financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year. We successfully completed our assessment and obtained our Firm's report as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In future years, if we fail to timely complete this assessment, or if we cannot obtain our Firm's report as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we could be subject to regulatory sanctions and a loss of public confidence in our internal control. In addition, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to timely meet our regulatory reporting obligations.
A decrease in the number of our suppliers could adversely affect our business.
In 2007, our top-ten suppliers accounted for approximately 18% of the products we sold, and no supplier accounted for over 3.6% of our revenue. We expect to continue to rely on these suppliers to fulfill a substantial portion of our print orders in the future. These suppliers are not contractually required to continue to accept orders from us. If production capacity at a significant number of these suppliers becomes unavailable, we will be required to use fewer suppliers, which could significantly limit our ability to serve our clients on competitive terms. In addition, we rely on price bids provided by our suppliers to populate our database. If the number of our suppliers decreases significantly, we will not be able to obtain sufficient pricing information for PPM4™ which could affect our ability to obtain favorable pricing for our clients.
If we are unable to expand the number of our account executives, or if a significant number of our account executives leave InnerWorkings, our ability to increase our revenues could be negatively impacted.
Our ability to expand our business will depend largely on our ability to attract additional account executives with established client relationships. Competition for qualified account executives can be intense and we may be unable to hire such persons. Any difficulties we experience in expanding the number of our account executives could have a negative impact on our ability to expand our client base, increase our revenue and continue our growth.
In addition, we must retain our current account executives and properly incentivize them to obtain new clients and maintain existing client relationships. If a significant number of our account executives leave InnerWorkings and take their clients with them, our revenue could be negatively impacted. We have entered into non-compete agreements with our account executives to mitigate this risk, but we may need to litigate to enforce our rights under these agreements, which could be time-consuming, expensive and ineffective. A significant increase in the turnover rate among our current account executives could also increase our recruiting costs and decrease our operating efficiency and productivity, which could lead to a decline in the demand for our services.
If we are unable to expand our enterprise client base, our revenue growth rate may be negatively impacted.
As part of our growth strategy, we seek to attract new enterprise clients and migrate our transactional client relationships into enterprise engagements under long-term contracts. If we are unable to attract new enterprise clients or expand our relationships with our existing transactional clients, our ability to expand our business will be hindered.
Many of our clients may terminate their relationship with us on short notice and with no penalties or limited penalties.
Our transactional clients, which accounted for approximately 31%, 30% and 38% of our revenue in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, typically use our services on an order-by-order basis rather than under long-term contracts. These clients have no obligation to continue using our services and may stop purchasing from us at any time. We have entered into contracts with our enterprise clients, which
15
accounted for approximately 69%, 70% and 62% of our revenue in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, that generally have an open-ended duration. Most of these contracts, however, do not impose minimum purchase or volume requirements, and typically permit the clients to terminate our engagements on prior notice ranging from 90 days to 12 months with limited or no penalties.
The volume and type of services we provide our clients may vary from year to year and could be reduced if the client were to change its outsourcing or print procurement strategy. If a significant number of our transactional or enterprise clients elect to terminate or not to renew their engagements with us, or if the volume of their print orders decreases, our business, operating results and financial condition could suffer.
There are risks that our acquisitions could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition. These risks include:
- •
- problems with integrating the operations and technologies of our acquired companies with our business;
- •
- distraction and diversion of management time and attention from our existing core business;
- •
- inability to retain business relationships with the customers of our acquired companies; and
- •
- inability to retain key employees of our acquired companies.
We may not be able to develop or implement new systems, procedures and controls that are required to support the anticipated growth in our operations.
Our revenues increased from $5.0 million in 2002 to $288.4 million in 2007, representing a compound annual growth rate of 97%. Between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2007, the number of our employees and independent contractors increased from 21 to 567. Continued growth could place a significant strain on our ability to:
- •
- recruit, motivate and retain qualified account executives, procurement managers and management personnel;
- •
- preserve our culture, values and entrepreneurial environment;
- •
- develop and improve our internal administrative infrastructure and execution standards; and
- •
- maintain high levels of client satisfaction.
To manage our growth, we must implement and maintain proper operational and financial controls and systems. Further, we will need to manage our relationships with various clients and suppliers. We cannot give any assurance that we will be able to develop and implement, on a timely basis, the systems, procedures and controls required to support the growth in our operations or effectively manage our relationships with various clients and suppliers. If we are unable to manage our growth, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
A decrease in levels of excess capacity in the U.S. commercial print industry could have an adverse impact on our business.
We believe that for the past several years, the U.S. commercial print industry has experienced significant levels of excess capacity. Our business seeks to capitalize on imbalances between supply and demand in the print industry by obtaining favorable pricing terms from suppliers in our network through a competitive bid process. Reduced excess capacity in the print industry generally and in our supplier network specifically could have an adverse impact on our ability to execute our business strategy and on our business results and growth prospects.
16
Our inability to protect our intellectual property rights may impair our competitive position.
If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, our competitors could replicate our proprietary technology in order to offer similar services and harm our competitive position. We rely on a combination of trademark and trade secret laws and confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements to protect our proprietary technology. We cannot be certain that the steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property rights will be adequate or that third parties will not infringe or misappropriate our rights or imitate or duplicate our services or methodologies, including PPM4™. We may need to litigate to enforce our intellectual property rights or determine the validity and scope of the rights of others. Any such litigation could be time-consuming and costly.
If we are unable to maintain PPM4™, demand for our services and our revenues could decrease.
We rely heavily on PPM4™ to procure printed products for our clients. To keep pace with changing technologies and client demands, we must correctly interpret and address market trends and enhance the features and functionality of our technology in response to these trends, which may lead to significant research and development costs. We may be unable to accurately determine the needs of print buyers, the trends in the print industry or to design and implement the appropriate features and functionality of our technology in a timely and cost-effective manner, which could result in decreased demand for our services and a corresponding decrease in our revenue.
In addition, we must protect our systems against physical damage from fire, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hacker attacks, physical break-ins and similar events. Any software or hardware damage or failure that causes interruption or an increase in response time of PPM4™ could reduce client satisfaction and decrease usage of our services.
If the key members of our management team do not remain with us in the future, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Our future success will depend to a significant extent on the continued services of Steven Zuccarini, our Chief Executive Officer, Nicholas Galassi, our Chief Financial Officer, Kevin Harrell, our Executive Vice President of Sales, Eric Belcher, our Chief Operating Officer, and Neil Graver, our Chief Technology Officer. The loss of the services of any of these or other individuals could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition and could divert other senior management time in searching for their replacements.
Our management team has limited experience managing a public company, and regulatory compliance may divert its attention from the day-to-day management of our business.
The individuals who now constitute our management team have limited experience managing a publicly-traded company and limited experience complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Our management team may not successfully or efficiently manage our transition into a public company that will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. In particular, these new obligations will require substantial attention from our senior management and divert its attention away from the day-to-day management of our business, which could materially and adversely impact our business operations.
Because many of the members of our management team have been employed with us for a short period of time, we cannot be certain that they will be able to manage our business successfully.
We are dependent on our management team for our business to be successful. Because of our limited operating history, many of our key management personnel have been employed by us for less than three years. Therefore, we cannot be certain that we will be able to allocate responsibilities appropriately and that the new members of our management team will succeed in their roles. Our
17
inability to integrate members of our current management team with our business model would make it difficult for us to manage our business successfully and to pursue our growth strategy.
Our business is subject to seasonal sales fluctuations, which could result in volatility or have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
Our business is subject to some degree of sales seasonality. Historically, the percentage of our annual revenue earned during the third and fourth fiscal quarters has been higher due, in part, to a greater number of print orders in anticipation of the year-end holiday season. If our business continues to experience seasonality, we may incur significant additional expenses during our third and fourth quarters, including additional staffing expenses. Consequently, if we were to experience lower than expected revenue during any future third or fourth quarter, whether from a general decline in economic conditions or other factors beyond our control, our expenses may not be offset, which would have a disproportionate impact on our operating results and financial condition for that year.
Price fluctuations in raw materials costs could adversely affect the margins on our print orders.
The print industry relies on a constant supply of various raw materials, including paper and ink. Prices within the print industry are directly affected by the cost of paper, which is purchased in a price sensitive market that has historically exhibited price and demand cyclicality. Prices are also affected by the cost of ink. Our profit margin and profitability is largely a function of the rates that our suppliers charge us compared to the rates that we charge our clients. If our suppliers increase the price of our print orders, and we are not able to find suitable or alternative suppliers, our profit margin may decline.
If any of our products cause damages or injuries, we may experience product liability claims.
Clients and third parties who claim to suffer damages or an injury caused by our products may bring lawsuits against us. Defending lawsuits arising out of any of the products we provide to our clients could be costly and absorb substantial amounts of management attention, which could adversely affect our financial performance. A significant product liability judgment against us could harm our reputation and business.
If any of our key clients fail to pay for our services, our profitability would be negatively impacted.
We take full title and risk of loss for the printed products we procure from our suppliers. Our obligation to pay our suppliers is not contingent upon receipt of payment from our clients. In 2005, 2006 and 2007, our revenue was $76.9 million, $160.5 million and $288.4 million, respectively, and our top-ten clients accounted for 46%, 47% and 41%, respectively, of such revenue. If any of our key clients fails to pay for our services, our profitability would be negatively impacted.
We may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, effectively integrate newly acquired businesses or achieve expected profitability from acquisitions.
Part of our growth strategy is to increase our revenue and the markets that we serve through the acquisition of additional businesses. We are actively considering certain acquisitions and will likely consider others. There can be no assurance that suitable candidates for acquisitions can be identified or, if suitable candidates are identified, that acquisitions can be completed on acceptable terms, if at all. Even if suitable candidates are identified, any future acquisitions may entail a number of risks that could adversely affect our business and the market price of our common stock, including the integration of the acquired operations, diversion of management's attention, risks of entering markets in which we have limited experience, adverse short-term effects on our reported operating results, the potential loss of key employees of acquired businesses and risks associated with unanticipated liabilities.
18
We may use common stock to pay for acquisitions. If the owners of potential acquisition candidates are not willing to receive common stock in exchange for their businesses, our acquisition prospects could be limited. Future acquisitions could also result in accounting charges, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities and increased debt and contingent liabilities, including liabilities related to unknown or undisclosed circumstances, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our common stock.
We incur increased costs as a result of being a public company.
We face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including the requirements of Section 404, as well as new rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the Nasdaq Global Market, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. We expect that continuing compliance with these public company requirements will increase our costs and make some activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements will require us to carry out activities we have not done previously. We also expect that it will be difficult and expensive to maintain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt even more changes in governance and reporting requirements. We expect that the additional reporting and other obligations imposed on us by these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of our related legal, accounting and administrative activities. These increased costs will require us to divert a significant amount of money that we could otherwise use to expand our business and achieve our strategic objectives.
Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, and our failure to raise capital when needed could prevent us from growing.
We may in the future be required to raise capital through public or private financing or other arrangements. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of our common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and could reduce our profitability. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to grow our business or respond to competitive pressures.
A significant or prolonged economic downturn, or a dramatic decline in the demand for printed products, could adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.
Our results of operations are affected directly by the level of business activity of our clients, which in turn is affected by the level of economic activity and cyclicality in the industries and markets that they serve. Certain of our products are sold to industries, including the advertising industry, that experience significant fluctuations in demand based on general economic conditions, cyclicality and other factors beyond our control. An economic stagnation or downturn could result in a reduction of the marketing budgets of our clients or a decrease in the number of print jobs that our clients order from us. Reduced demand from one of these industries or markets could adversely affect our revenues, operating income and profitability.
19
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
The trading price of our common stock may be volatile.
The trading prices of many newly publicly-traded companies are highly volatile. Since our initial public offering in August 2006, the closing sale price of our common stock as reported by the Nasdaq Global Market has ranged from a low of $10.10 on August 23, 2006 to a high of $18.69 on October 9, 2007.
Certain factors may continue to cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, including:
- •
- fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;
- •
- changes in market valuations of similar companies;
- •
- success of competitive products or services;
- •
- changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of debt or equity securities;
- •
- announcements by us, our competitors, our clients or our suppliers of significant products or services, contracts, acquisitions or strategic alliances;
- •
- regulatory developments in the United States or foreign countries;
- •
- litigation involving our company, our general industry or both;
- •
- additions or departures of key personnel;
- •
- investors' general perception of us; and
- •
- changes in general economic, industry and market conditions.
In addition, if the stock market in general experiences a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause our stock price to fall and may expose us to class action lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to management. As a result, you could lose all or part of your investment.
If equity research analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade our common stock, the price of our common stock could decline.
The trading market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts. The price of our stock could decline if one or more equity analysts downgrade our stock or if those analysts issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business.
Our quarterly results are difficult to predict and may vary from quarter to quarter, which may result in our failure to meet the expectations of investors and increased volatility of our stock price.
The continued use of our services by our clients depends, in part, on the business activity of our clients and our ability to meet their cost saving needs, as well as their own changing business conditions. The time between our payment to the supplier of a print job and our receipt of payment from our clients varies with each print job and client. In addition, a significant percentage of our revenue is subject to the discretion of our enterprise and transactional clients, who may stop using our services at any time, subject, in the case of most of our enterprise clients, to advance notice requirements. Therefore, the number, size and profitability of print jobs may vary significantly from quarter to quarter. As a result, our quarterly operating results are difficult to predict and may fall
20
below the expectations of current or potential investors in some future quarters, which could lead to a significant decline in the market price of our stock. This may lead to volatility in our stock price. The factors that are likely to cause these variations include:
- •
- the demand for our print procurement solution;
- •
- the use of outsourced enterprise solutions;
- •
- clients' business decisions regarding the quantities of printed products they purchase;
- •
- the number, timing and profitability of our print jobs, unanticipated contract terminations or print job postponements;
- •
- new product introductions and enhancements by our competitors;
- •
- changes in our pricing policies;
- •
- our ability to manage costs, including personnel costs; and
- •
- costs related to possible acquisitions of other businesses.
Because a limited number of stockholders control a significant amount of the voting power of our common stock, investors in the Company may not be able to determine the outcome of stockholder votes.
Orange Media, LLC, an entity controlled by Elizabeth Kramer Lefkofsky, who is the wife of Eric P. Lefkofsky, and Richard A. Heise, Jr. beneficially owned and had the ability to exercise voting control over, in the aggregate, 16.7% of our outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2007. In addition, New Enterprise Associates 11, Limited Partnership and NEA Ventures 2005, Limited Partnership beneficially owned, and had the ability to exercise voting control over, in the aggregate, 14.8% of our outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2007. As a result, these stockholders will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, any amendments to our certificate of incorporation and significant corporate transactions. Without the consent of these stockholders, we could be delayed or prevented from entering into transactions (including the acquisition of our company by third parties) that may be viewed as beneficial to us or our other stockholders. In addition, this significant concentration of stock ownership may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock if investors perceive disadvantages in owning stock in a company with controlling stockholders.
We do not currently intend to pay dividends, which may limit the return on your investment in us.
We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
If our board of directors authorizes the issuance of preferred stock, holders of our common stock could be diluted and harmed.
Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to establish the preferred stock's voting powers, preferences and other rights and qualifications without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power and dividend liquidation rights of the holders of common stock. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or discouraging a third party from acquiring, a majority of our outstanding voting stock or otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock. It is possible that we may need to raise capital through the sale of preferred stock in the future.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, which appear elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. It contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly under the heading "Risk Factors."
Overview
We are a leading provider of print procurement solutions to corporate clients in the United States. Utilizing our proprietary technology and database, as well as our extensive domain expertise, we create a competitive bid process to procure, purchase and deliver printed products as part of a comprehensive outsourced enterprise solution and in individual transactions. Our technology is designed to capitalize on excess manufacturing capacity and other inefficiencies in the traditional print supply chain to obtain favorable pricing and to deliver high-quality products and services for our clients.
Our proprietary software applications and database, PPM4™, create a fully-integrated solution that stores, analyzes and tracks the production capabilities of our supplier network, as well as quote and
26
price data for each bid we receive and print job we execute. As a result, we believe PPM4™ contains one of the largest independent repositories of equipment profiles and price data for print suppliers in the United States. We leverage our technology to match each print job with the supplier that is optimally suited to meet the client's needs at a highly competitive price. Our procurement managers use PPM4™ to manage the print procurement process from end-to-end.
Through our network of over 6,000 suppliers, we offer a full range of print, fulfillment and logistics services that allows us to procure printed products on virtually any substrate. The breadth of our product offerings and services and the depth of our supplier network enable us to fulfill up to 100% of the print procurement needs of our clients. By leveraging our technology platform, our clients are able to reduce overhead costs, redeploy internal resources and obtain favorable pricing and service terms. In addition, our ability to track individual transactions and provide customized reports detailing print procurement activity on an enterprise-wide basis provides our clients with greater visibility and control of their print expenditures.
We believe the opportunity exists to expand our business into new geographic markets. We also maintain offices in New York, New Jersey, California, Hawaii, Michigan, Missouri, Minnesota, Texas and Pennsylvania. Our objective is to continue to increase our sales in the major print markets in the United States. We intend to hire or acquire more account executives within close proximity to these large markets, which accounted for, in aggregate, $17.3 billion of print expenditures in 2006, according to Printing Industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundation. In addition, given that the print industry is a global business, over time we intend to evaluate opportunities to access attractive markets outside the United States. For example, in March 2006 we entered into a strategic agreement to grant SNP Corporation Ltd. a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use certain non-core applications of our software in China, Singapore and Hong Kong.
We acquired Spectrum Printing Services in March 2007, Brown + Partners, Inc. in July 2007, Data Flow Media Systems, LP, Graphic Resource Group in October 2007 and Corporate Edge, Inc. in November 2007. Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 include the results of operations from Spectrum from March 1, 2007, Brown + Partners from July 1, 2007, Data Flow Media Systems and Graphic Resource Group from October 1, 2007 and Corporate Edge from December 1, 2007.
Recent Developments
In March 2007, we acquired Spectrum Printing Services, a provider of print management services as well as promotional products, apparel and complete warehousing and fulfillment services. As a result of the acquisition, we established a strategic presence in the Southern California print market and added five additional sales executives and their corresponding production teams. The acquisition consideration for Spectrum Printing Services consisted of approximately $3.6 million in cash paid in 2007 and up to an additional $2.5 million subject to Spectrum Printing Services achieving specified EBITDA targets in 2007 and 2008.
In July 2007, we acquired Brown + Partners, Inc., a provider of print management services based in suburban Philadelphia. The acquisition price consisted of approximately $564,000 in cash paid in July 2007 and up to an additional $5.0 million in cash payable contingent on the achievement of certain performance measures by Brown + Partners, Inc. prior to December 31, 2009.
In October 2007, we acquired Graphic Resource Group, Inc., a provider of print management services which include the procurement and production management of printed products, located in Minneapolis. The acquisition purchase price consisted of approximately $2.4 million in cash paid in October 2007 and up to an additional $2.8 million subject to Graphic Resource Group achieving specified EBITDA targets through September 30, 2010.
27
In October 2007, we acquired Data Flow Media Systems, LP, a provider of print management services which includes the procurement and production management of printed and promotional products and related warehousing and fulfillment functions, located in Dallas, Texas. The acquisition purchase price consisted of approximately $3.4 million in cash paid in the fourth quarter of 2007 and up to an additional $3.0 million subject to Data Flow Media Systems achieving specified EBITDA targets through September 30, 2010.
In December 2007, we acquired Corporate Edge, Inc., a national distributor of promotional products principally involved in the design, development and sale of corporate specialty items with locations in New York and New Jersey. As a result of the acquisition, we expanded our strategic presence in the New York area print market and added twenty-seven sales executives and their corresponding production teams. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $18.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, which was paid in December 2007. In addition, the former owners of Corporate Edge may receive up to $15.0 million in cash payable contingent on the achievement of certain performance measures by Corporate Edge prior to November 30, 2010.
Revenue
We generate revenue through the sale of printed products to our clients. Our revenue was $76.9, $160.5 and $288.4 million in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, reflecting growth rates of 97.7%, 108.8% and 79.7% in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year. Our revenue is generated from two different types of clients: enterprise and transactional. Enterprise jobs usually involve higher dollar amounts and volume than our transactional jobs. We categorize a client as an enterprise client if we have a contract with the client for the provision of printing services on a recurring basis; if the client has signed an open-ended purchase order, or a series of related purchase orders; or if the client has enrolled in our e-stores program, which enables the client to make online purchases of printing services on a recurring basis. We categorize all other clients as transactional. We enter into contracts with our enterprise clients to provide some or a specific portion of their printed products on a recurring basis. Our contracts with enterprise clients generally have an open-ended term subject to termination by either party upon prior notice ranging from 90 days to twelve months. Several of our enterprise clients have outsourced substantially all of their recurring print needs to us. We provide printed products to our transactional clients on an order-by-order basis. As of December 31, 2006, we had 92 enterprise clients, and as of December 31, 2007 we had 116 enterprise clients. From our inception through December 31, 2007, we have served over 5,700 clients. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, enterprise clients accounted for 70% and 62% of our revenue, respectively, while transactional clients accounted for 30% and 38% of our revenue, respectively.
Our revenue consists of the prices paid by our clients for printed products. These prices, in turn, reflect the amounts charged to us by our suppliers plus our gross profit. Our gross profit margin, in the case of some of our enterprise clients, is fixed by contract or, in the case of transactional clients, is negotiated on a job-by-job basis. Once either type of client accepts our pricing terms, the selling price is established and we procure the product for our own account in order to re-sell it to the client. We take full title and risk of loss for the product upon shipment. The finished product is typically shipped directly from our supplier to a destination specified by our client. Upon shipment, our supplier invoices us for its production costs and we invoice our client.
Because we have made several acquisitions in recent years, comparing our revenue results from year to year is complex. In an effort to make it easier for investors to compare our results in different periods, we are providing revenue information on the current year acquisitions. During 2007, we made six strategic acquisitions, including Spectrum Printing Services, Brown + Partners, Inc., Inkchasers, Data Flow Media Systems, LP., Graphic Resource Group, Inc. and Corporate Edge, Inc. Adding these operations to our existing business contributed $31.8 million of revenue in 2007.
28
Our revenue from enterprise clients tends to generate lower gross profit margins than our revenue from transactional clients because the gross profit margins established in our contracts with large enterprise clients are generally lower than the gross profit margins we typically realize in our transactional business. Although our enterprise revenue generates lower gross profit margins, our enterprise business tends to be more profitable than our transactional business on an operating profit basis because the commission expense associated with enterprise jobs is generally lower.
The print industry has historically been subject to seasonal sales fluctuations because a substantial number of print orders are placed for the year-end holiday season. We have historically experienced seasonal client buying patterns with a higher percentage of our revenue being earned in our third and fourth quarters. We expect these seasonal revenue patterns to continue.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of the price at which we purchase products from our suppliers. Our selling price, including our gross profit, in the case of some of our enterprise jobs, is based on a fixed gross margin established by contract or, in the case of transactional jobs, is determined at the discretion of the account executive or procurement manager within predetermined parameters. Our gross margins on our enterprise jobs are typically lower than our gross margins on our transactional jobs. As a result, our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue for our enterprise jobs is typically higher than those for our transactional jobs. Our gross profit for 2005, 2006 and 2007 was $15.6 million, $36.5 million and $73.4 million, respectively. We have early payment discount terms with several of our key suppliers. We have taken advantage of early payment terms on a more frequent basis in recent periods, thereby reducing our overall cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue.
Operating Expenses and Income from Operations
Commissions paid to our account executives are a significant component of our operating expenses. The commissions we pay to our account executives are based on the gross profit we collect from the clients. As a percentage of revenue, commissions were 4.5%, 5.5% and 5.7% in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Commission expense generally fluctuates based on the gross profit of the business. As the overall gross margin increased in 2007 to 25.4%, up from 22.8% in 2006, commission expense increased as well. This is a result of on an increase in business with transactional business up from 30% in 2006 to 38% in 2007.
We accrue for commissions when we recognize the related revenue. Some of our account executives receive a monthly draw to provide them with a more consistent income stream. The cash paid to our account executives in advance of commissions earned is reflected as a prepaid expense on our balance sheet. As our account executives earn commissions, a portion of their commission payment is withheld and offset against their prepaid commission balance, if any. Our prepaid commission balance was $1.6 million as of December 31, 2005, $1.1 million as of December 31, 2006 and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2007.
Our general and administrative expenses consist mainly of compensation costs for our procurement managers and management team. Our general and administrative expenses also include compensation costs for our finance and support employees, corporate systems, accounting, legal, facilities and travel and entertainment expenses. In 2006 and 2007, we also incurred public company fees and expenses, including consulting fees for the implementation of Sarbanes-Oxley and the expense to maintain directors and officers' liability insurance. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 9.3%, 8.6% and 10.9% in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is due in large part to the addition of key personnel to sustain the infrastructure of our growing business, new personnel from acquisitions and expenses related to becoming Sarbanes-Oxley complaint.
29
We agree to provide our clients with printed products that conform to the industry standard of a "commercially reasonable quality," and our suppliers in turn agree to provide us with products of the same quality. In addition, the quotes we execute with our clients include customary industry terms and conditions that limit the amount of our liability for product defects. Product defects have not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are required to make payment to our suppliers for completed print jobs regardless of whether our clients make payment to us. To date, the failure of our clients to make required payments has not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Our bad debt expense was approximately $176,000, $314,000 and $300,000 in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
Our income from operations for 2005, 2006 and 2007 was $4.6 million, $12.8 million and $23.2 million, respectively.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped from a third party to the customer, which is when title transfers. In accordance with EITF Issue 99-19,Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, we recognize revenue on a gross basis, as opposed to a net basis similar to a commission arrangement, because we bear the risks and benefits associated with revenue-generated activities by: (1) acting as a principal in the transaction; (2) establishing prices; (3) being responsible for fulfillment of the order; (4) taking the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns; and (5) marketing our products, among other things.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identified assets of businesses acquired. Under SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and other Intangible Assets, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, or if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. We evaluate recoverability of goodwill using a two-step impairment test approach at the reporting unit level. In the first step, the fair value for the reporting unit is compared to its book value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the book value, a second step is performed, which compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill to the book value of the goodwill. The fair value for the goodwill is determined based on the difference between the fair values of the reporting units and the net fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of such reporting units. If the fair value of the goodwill is less than the book value, the difference is recognized as an impairment. As of December 31, 2007, our goodwill balance was $30.5 million.
SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to the estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment when impairment indicators exist in accordance with SFAS No. 144,Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Our intangible assets consist of customer lists, trade names, and non-compete agreements with account executives and are amortized on the straight-line basis. We believe the customer lists have ten to fifteen year useful lives, and we are amortizing the non-compete agreements over the terms of the agreements. As of December 31, 2007, the net balance of our intangible assets was $10.6 million.
30
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and complied with the disclosure requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123(R),Share-Based Payments, using the prospective transition method and Black-Scholes as the option valuation model. Under the prospective transition method, we will continue to account for non-vested equity awards outstanding at the date of adopting Statement 123(R) in the same manner as they had been accounted for prior to adoption. As a result, under APB No. 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the grant date between the estimated fair value of our stock and the exercise price of options to purchase that stock. The compensation expense is then amortized over the vesting period of the stock options.
Between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007, we granted options to purchase 86,000 shares of our common stock. The estimated per share fair value of the shares underlying these option grants ranged from $12.57 to $18.69.
Between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006, we granted options to purchase 1,362,050 shares of our common stock. The estimated per share fair value of the shares underlying these option grants ranged from $4.92 to $16.41.
Between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2005, we granted options to purchase 1,338,500 shares of our common stock. In August 2005, we engaged an independent valuation specialist to perform a retrospective valuation of our common stock as of November 30, 2004. On September 16, 2005, the valuation specialist delivered a report stating that the fair value of our common stock as of November 30, 2004 was $0.43 per share. Shortly after our receipt of the report, we used the valuation specialist's methodology to determine that the fair value of our common stock as of June 30, 2005 was $0.65 per share. In 2005, we used the valuation specialist's methodology to determine that the fair value of our common stock as of December 31, 2005 was $0.65 per share. Based on these determinations, we established an exercise price of no less than $0.65 per share for the options granted between June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005. Using the valuation specialist's methodology, we valued our business as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 by calculating the present value of our future available cash flows at an appropriate rate. For purposes of estimating our future available cash flows, we made significant assumptions with respect to revenue growth rates, forecasted net income and debt-free future cash flow. We applied a 40% rate to calculate the present value of our future available cash flows based on the independent valuation specialist's determination that we were in our second stage, or "expansion" stage, of development. We also applied a 5% lack of marketability discount to our enterprise value, which took into account the fact that minority investments in private companies are less liquid than similar investments in publicly-traded companies. There is inherent uncertainty in these estimates.
We accounted for these options granted prior to January 1, 2006 in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25. The exercise price of all of the options that we granted during this period was at or above fair market value. As a result, there was no intrinsic value associated with these option grants. Pursuant to APB Opinion No. 25, we were not required to record any compensation expense in connection with these option grants.
Effective January 1, 2006, we calculate compensation expense under SFAS No. 123(R) based on the Black-Scholes value of options at the time of grant and record compensation expense in equal amounts as the options vest.
31
During 2007, we granted options to purchase a total of 86,000 shares of our common stock. The exercise price to purchase these shares was based on the market closing price on the grant date, which ranged from $12.57 to $18.69. We estimated the Black-Scholes value of these options using the following assumptions: expected volatility: 33.5%; risk-free interest rates ranging from 4.38% to 5.05%; and expected life: 5 years.
On March 1, 2006, we granted options to purchase 30,000 shares of our common stock. The estimated per share fair value of our common stock on the date of this option grant was $4.92. The basis for determining the estimated per share fair value was the contemporaneous arm's length negotiation of a transaction involving the sale of certain shares of our common stock to SNP. We estimated the Black-Scholes value of these options using the following assumptions: expected volatility: 33.5%; risk-free interest rate: 4.63%; expected life: 5 years; exercise price: $4.92 per share; and fair market value: $4.92 per share.
On May 8, June 5 and July 14, 2006, we granted options to purchase a total of 1,175,500 shares of our common stock. The exercise price of the options to purchase 1,150,000 shares of our common stock that we granted on May 8, 2006 was $4.92 per share, which was the price per share paid by SNP in April 2006. On June 1, 2006, the same valuation specialist that we engaged in August 2005 delivered a report stating that the fair value of our common stock as of May 8, 2006 was $5.35 per share. We used this value as the exercise price of the options to purchase 25,500 shares of our common stock that we granted on June 5, and July 14, 2006. We also used this as the estimated per share fair value of our common stock on the dates of option grant and the May 8, 2006 option grant. We estimated the Black-Scholes value of these options using the following assumptions: expected volatility: 33.5%; risk-free interest rate: 5.01%, 4.95%, and 5.02%, respectively; expected life: 5 years; exercise price: $4.92 per share or $5.35 per share, as applicable; and fair market value: $5.35 per share.
On August 16, October 11, and November 15, 2006 we granted options to purchase a total of 156,550 shares of our common stock. As these options were issued subsequent to the initial public offering, the exercise price to purchase these shares was based on the market closing price on the grant date, which was $9.00, $14.60, and $16.41, respectively. We estimated the Black-Scholes value of these options using the following assumptions: expected volatility: 33.5%, risk-free interest rate: 4.81%, 4.78%, and 4.62%, respectively; and expected life: 5 years.
32
We recorded share based compensation expense of $561,470 and $1,061,582 in the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
As of December 31, 2006, and 2007 there were 5,479,367 and 4,592,001 options to purchase shares of our common stock outstanding. Of these outstanding options, 3,639,667 were vested and 1,839,700 were unvested as of December 31, 2006 and 3,316,627 were vested and 1,275,374 were unvested as of December 31, 2007.
We believe that the per share fair value of our common stock increased from $0.65 as of December 31, 2005 to $9.00 as of August 16, 2006, the date of the initial public offering, as a result of several developments. The following developments, among others, were unexpected as of December 31, 2005 and therefore not considered in the estimate of the $0.65 per share fair value:
- •
- From January 1, 2006 to April 30, 2006, six Fortune 500 companies became enterprise clients. The addition of enterprise agreements and the prospect of additional capital from the initial public offering increased our revenue projections. From January 1, 2006 to April 30, 2006, our revenue increased more than 80% from the prior comparable period. In January 2006, we completed a Series E preferred round of financing at a purchase price of $4.92 per share, which provided $9.3 million of working capital. In April 2006, we entered into a strategic alliance with SNP to license a portion of our technology. This alliance included the sale of our common stock to SNP at a purchase price of $4.92 per share.
- •
- On May 31, 2006, we acquired Graphography Limited LLC, a provider of production management services, including print procurement and promotional services. In 2005, Graphography generated revenue of $23.8 million, representing 18.2% of our 2005 pro forma revenue. As a result of the acquisition, we established a significant presence in the New York market, which is the third largest print market in the United States. Graphography added two new significant enterprise clients, a Fortune 500 manufacturing and marketing company and a multi-billion dollar international beverage distributor, each of which would have been in our top five accounts based on revenue generated in 2005 on a pro forma basis. It also added more than 100 transactional clients, which expanded our pipeline of clients to which market our enterprise solution. In addition, we gained approximately 400 new suppliers that provide printing and promotional services to our existing clients. We also acquired three additional sales executives as well as two additional lead production managers, and their corresponding production teams, with significant expertise in the areas of direct mail and promotional products. The acquisition enabled us to populate our proprietary database with over 10,000 historical Graphography print jobs and quotes, increasing the size of our PPM4™ database by over 15% and enhancing our ability to identify optional pricing for our clients.
- •
- From May 8, 2006 to August 15, 2006, we gained three new enterprise clients, including two Fortune 500 companies, we executed jobs for 50 new transactional clients, including several Fortune 500 companies, and we hired five additional sales executives who brought significant customer relationships to us.

Comparison of years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006
Revenue
Our revenue increased by $127.9 million, or 79.7%, from $160.5 million in 2006 to $288.4 million in 2007. Our revenue growth reflects an increase in both our enterprise and transactional business. Our revenue from enterprise clients increased by $67.6 million, or 60.0%, from $112.6 million in 2006 to $180.2 million in 2007. As of December 31, 2007, we had 116 enterprise clients under contract compared to 92 enterprise clients under contract as of December 31, 2006. The increase in our enterprise business is the result of more deeply penetrating our existing enterprise accounts and adding new enterprise accounts during the year. Our revenue from transactional clients increased $60.3 million, or 125.8%, from $47.9 million in 2006 to $108.2 million in 2007. This increase in revenue is largely the result of our ongoing efforts to hire or acquire experienced sales executives with existing books of business, which helped, in turn, drive this transactional business growth. We increased our number of account executives by 68, or 44.4%, from 153 as of December 31, 2006 to 221 as of December 31, 2007. Additionally, a component of our revenue during 2007 came from the six acquisitions made during the year. Adding these operations to our existing business contributed $31.8 million of revenue in 2007.
Cost of goods sold
Our cost of goods sold increased by $91.1 million, or 73.5%, from $124.0 million in 2006 to $215.0 million in 2007. The increase reflects the revenue growth during 2007. Our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue decreased from 77.2% in 2006 to 74.6% in 2007. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue is a result of our transactional business generating higher gross profit as 38% of our revenue was generated through transaction revenue in 2007 compared to 30% in 2006. Additionally, we have cash discount terms for early payment with many of our suppliers, which we utilized, thereby reducing our cost of goods sold.
34
Gross Profit
Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as gross margin, increased from 22.8% in 2006 to 25.4% in 2007. The increase is the result of a greater percentage of our revenue coming from transactional business during 2007, which typically has higher gross margins, as well as early pay discounts with many of our key suppliers.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Commission expense increased by $7.8 million, or 88.3%, from $8.8 million in 2006 to $16.6 million in 2007. As a percentage of revenue, commission expense increased from 5.5% in 2006 to 5.7% in 2007. The increase is a result of a higher percentage of our revenue being generated from transactional business, which typically results in higher commission expense to the sales executives.
General and administrative expense increased by $17.5 million, or 126.4%, from $13.9 million in 2006 to $31.4 million in 2007. General and administrative expense increased as a percentage of revenue from 8.6% in 2006 to 10.9% in 2007. The increase is primarily due to an increase in salaries and benefits as a percentage of revenue, which increased from 5.2% in 2006 to 6.6% in 2007. This increase is a result of continuing to invest in key personnel dedicated to the growth of the business, including sales management and strategic sourcing. Additionally, we have increased salaries and benefits through our recent acquisitions. Lastly, our professional fees increased in legal and accounting to become Sarbanes-Oxley compliant.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.2 million, or 115.1%, from $1.0 million in 2006 to $2.2 million in 2007. The increase in depreciation expense is primarily attributable to purchases of computer hardware and software, equipment and furniture and fixtures as well as capitalization of costs of computer software for internal use in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 during 2007. The increase in amortization expense is a result of the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in connection with our acquisitions.
Income from operations
Income from operations increased by $10.3 million, or 80.6%, from $12.8 million in 2006 to $23.2 million in 2007. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations was consistent in 2006 and 2007.
Other income and expense
Other income and expense increased $1.9 million from $775,000 in 2006 to $2.7 million in 2007. The significant increase is due to an increase in interest income from $949,000 in 2006 to $2.3 million in 2007. The increase in interest income is largely the result of the capital raised in connection with our initial public offering and follow-on offering. As a result of the initial public offering completed in August 2006, we sold 7,060,000 shares of our common stock with net proceeds to us, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, professional fees, preference payments, dividend payments and repayment of outstanding indebtedness under our line of credit, of approximately $47.8 million. As a result of the follow-on offering completed in January 2007, we sold 3,000,000 shares of our common stock with net proceeds to us, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering related expenses, of approximately $37.8 million. These proceeds were used to fund acquisitions, with a portion invested in money market funds and auction-rate securities.
35
Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes decreased by $2.0 million from $5.3 million in 2006 to $3.4 million in 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the provision for federal and state income taxes was $5.3 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 39.2%. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the provision for federal and state income taxes was $3.4 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 13.0%. The decrease in effective tax rate is the result of the reversal of the $6.6 million valuation allowance recorded initially in January 2006. Periodically, we review the continuing need for the valuation allowance based on the factors existing at the time of review. We evaluated this valuation allowance as of December 31, 2007 and determined that the full valuation allowance is no longer needed.
In 2006, we used $40 million of the $50 million we received in exchange for the issuance of our Series E preferred stock to redeem Class A common shares held by our existing stockholders in connection with our conversion from a limited liability company to a corporation. The cash distribution was taxable to our stockholders and because the redemption was done when the company was an LLC, it resulted in a $34.0 million step-up in the basis of our assets for tax purposes. As a result of the $34.0 million step-up, we recognized a deferred tax asset of $13.2 million, for which we recorded a valuation allowance of $6.6 million and a corresponding net increase to additional paid in capital of $6.6 million. This valuation allowance of $6.6 million reversed as a result of the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2007.
Net income
Net income increased by $14.2 million, or 171.8%, from $8.3 million in 2006 to $22.5 million in 2007. Net income as a percentage of revenue increased from 5.2% in 2006 to 7.8% in 2007. The increase in pretax income as a percentage of revenue is largely a result of improved gross profit margins partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.
Comparison of years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005
Revenue
Our revenue increased by $83.6 million, or 108.8%, from $76.9 million in 2005 to $160.5 million in 2006. Our revenue growth reflects an increase in both our enterprise and transactional business. Our revenue from enterprise clients increased by $59.8 million, or 113.4%, from $52.8 million in 2005 to $112.6 million in 2006. As of December 31, 2006, we had 92 enterprise clients under contract compared to 69 enterprise clients under contract as of December 31, 2005. Our revenue from transactional clients increased $23.8 million, or 98.8%, from $24.1 million in 2005 to $47.9 million in 2006. This increase in revenue is largely the result of our ongoing efforts to hire or acquire experienced sales executives with existing books of business, which helped drive transactional business growth. We increased our number of account executives by 67, or 77.9%, from 86 as of December 31, 2005 to 153 as of December 31, 2006.
Cost of goods sold
Our cost of goods sold increased by $62.7 million, or 102.3%, from $61.3 million in 2005 to $124.0 million in 2006. The increase reflects the revenue growth during 2006. Our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue decreased from 79.7% in 2005 to 77.2% in 2006. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue is a result of our transactional business generating higher gross profit margins driven by Applied Graphics, Inc. and CoreVision Group, Inc. Additionally, we have cash discount terms for early payment with many of our suppliers, which we aggressively utilized, thereby reducing our cost of goods sold.
36
Gross Profit
Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as gross margin, increased from 20.3% in 2005 to 22.8% in 2006. The increase is the result of a greater concentration of higher margin transactional clients as well as early pay discounts with many of our key suppliers.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Commission expense increased by $5.3 million, or 152.1%, from $3.5 million in 2005 to $8.8 million in 2006. As a percentage of revenue, commission expense increased from 4.5% in 2005 to 5.5% in 2006. The increase is a result of higher gross profit margin accounts, which generally result in higher commission expense to the sales executives.
General and administrative expense increased by $6.8 million, or 95.0%, from $7.1 million in 2005 to $13.9 million in 2006. General and administrative expense decreased as a percentage of revenue from 9.3% in 2005 to 8.6% in 2006. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits as a percentage of revenue. Salaries and benefits decreased as a percentage of revenue from 5.4% in 2005 to 5.2% in 2006. The decrease reflects our leverage model, which provides us the ability to add clients and account executives without incurring a corresponding increase in our general and administrative expenses.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $642,000, or 165.5%, from $388,000 in 2005 to $1.0 million in 2006. The increase in depreciation expense is primarily attributable to purchases of computer hardware and software, equipment and furniture and fixtures as well as capitalization of costs of computer software for internal use in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 during 2006. The increase in amortization expense is a result of the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in connection with our purchase of the remaining 49% ownership interest in Insight in March 2005 and our purchase of Graphography in May 2006 and Applied Graphics in October 2006.
Income from operations
Income from operations increased by $8.2 million, or 178.8%, from $4.6 million in 2005 to $12.8 million in 2006. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations increased from 6.0% in 2005 to 8.0% in 2006. The increase in income from operations as a percentage of revenue is a result of an increase in our gross profit margin, offset by an increase in our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.
Other income and expense
Other income and expense increased $746,000 from $29,000 in 2005 to $775,000 in 2006. The significant increase is due to an increase in interest income from $79,000 in 2005 to $949,000 in 2006. The increase in interest income is largely a result of the capital raised in connection with our August 2006 initial public offering in which we sold 7,060,000 shares of our common stock. These net proceeds were invested in money market funds from the receipt date through December 31, 2006.
Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes increased by $5.3 million from zero in 2005 to $5.3 million in 2006. The provision for income taxes was zero in 2005 because we were a limited liability company (LLC) and, as a result, did not pay income taxes. The income of the company flowed through to the members of the LLC. We converted from an LLC to a corporation on January 3, 2006. As a result, we have a provision for federal and state income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2006.
37
For the year ended December 31, 2006, the provision for federal and state income taxes was $5.3 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 39.2%.
We used $40 million of the $50 million we received in exchange for the issuance of our Series E preferred stock to redeem Class A common shares held by our existing stockholders in connection with our conversion from a limited liability company to a corporation. The cash distribution was taxable to our stockholders and because the redemption was done when the company was an LLC, it resulted in a $34.0 million step-up in the basis of our assets for tax purposes. As a result of the $34.0 million step-up, we recognized a deferred tax asset of $13.2 million, for which we recorded a valuation allowance of $6.6 million and a corresponding net increase to additional paid in capital of $6.6 million. We evaluated the valuation allowance as of December 31, 2006 and determined that no adjustment was necessary.
Net income
Net income increased by $3.6 million, or 79%, from $4.6 million in 2005 to $8.3 million in 2006. Net income as a percentage of revenue decreased from 6.1% in 2005 to 5.2% in 2006. This decrease is a result of recording tax expense in 2006 as a result of our conversion from a LLC to a C Corporation. Pretax income as a percentage of revenue increased to 8.5% in 2006 compared to 6.1% in 2005. The increase in pretax income as a percentage of revenue is largely a result of improved gross profit margins.

38
Impact of Inflation
We believe that our results of operations are not materially impacted by moderate changes in the inflation rate. Inflation and changing prices did not have a material impact on our operations in 2005, 2006 or 2007.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Prior to our initial public offering in August 2006, we financed our operations through private sales of common and preferred equity, bank loans and internally generated positive cash flow. In connection with our initial public offering, we raised approximately $47.8 million net of underwriting discounts, professional fees, preference payments, dividend payments and repayment of outstanding indebtedness under our line of credit. In addition, as a result of the follow-on offering completed in January 2007, we raised approximately $37.8 million, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering related expenses.
At December 31, 2007, we had $44.7 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Our marketable securities include auction-rate securities, which are variable rate debt instruments, having long-term maturity dates (typically 15 to 40 years), but whose interest rates are reset through an auction process, most commonly at intervals of seven, 28 and 35 days. In mid-February 2008, liquidity issues in the global credit markets resulted in the failure of auctions, involving substantially all of the auction-rate securities we hold. Substantially all of our auction-rate securities are backed by pools of student loans guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Education, and all were rated AAA/Aaa as of December 31, 2007. We continue to believe that the credit quality of these securities is high. While the recent auction failures will limit our ability to liquidate these investments for some period of time, we do not believe the auction failures will materially impact our ability to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures or other business requirements.
Operating Activities. Cash provided by (used in) operating activities primarily consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items including depreciation and amortization and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities. Cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $8.1 million and primarily reflected net income of $22.5 million offset by $2.1 million of non-cash items and $12.3 million used to fund working capital and other activities. The most significant impact on working capital and other activities consisted of an increase in accounts receivable of $19.6 million due to revenue growth with an increase in accounts payable of only $13.1 million due to our decision to take advantage of discount opportunities with many of our suppliers by accelerating payments.
In 2006, cash used in operating activities was $9.7 million and primarily reflected net income of $8.3 million and $2.8 million of non-cash items, offset by $20.8 million used to fund working capital and other activities. The most significant impact on working capital and other activities consisted of an increase in accounts receivable of $21.7 million due to revenue growth with an increase in accounts payable of only $4.5 million due to our decision to take advantage of discount opportunities with many of our suppliers by accelerating payments.
Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities in 2007 of $44.2 million was attributable to purchases of marketable securities of $7.9 million with a portion of the net proceeds received from our follow-on offering, cash paid for acquisitions of $33.9 million and capital expenditures of $2.4 million.
In 2006, cash used in investing activities of $22.1 million was attributable to purchases of marketable securities of $10 million with a portion of the net proceeds received from our initial public offering, cash paid for acquisitions of $10.7 million and capital expenditures of $1.4 million.

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities in 2007 of $42.3 million was primarily attributable to the net proceeds received from our follow-on offering, after underwriting discounts, commissions and offering related expenses, of approximately $37.8 million and the tax benefit of stock options exercised of $4.6 million, offset slightly by approximately $0.1 million in principal payments made on capital lease obligations.
In 2006, cash provided by financing activities of $49.5 million was primarily attributable to the net proceeds received from our initial public offering, after underwriting discounts, professional fees, preference payments, dividend payments and repayment of outstanding indebtedness under the line of credit, of approximately $47.8 million and the proceeds received from our Series E round of financing, net of the subsequent $40 million share repurchase, of approximately $10.0 million.
We have a $20.0 million line of credit with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The line of credit was unused as of December 31, 2006 and 2007. The maximum amount outstanding under our line of credit cannot exceed 80% of the book value of our eligible accounts receivable. Our line of credit contains limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make certain investments. Advances made under our line of credit accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the prime rate.
We anticipate that our operating expenses will constitute a material use of cash. In addition, we may continue to utilize cash to fund acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses and to expand our sales force. Although we can provide no assurances, we believe that the net proceeds from the follow-on public offering we closed in January 2007, together with our available cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and amounts available under our line of credit, should be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future. Thereafter, we may find it necessary to obtain additional equity or debt financing. In the event additional financing is required, we may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial
40
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Statement is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2008. We are is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting SFAS 157.
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 159"). SFAS 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees and issued debt. Other eligible items include firm commitments for financial instruments that otherwise would not be recognized at inception and non-cash warranty obligations where a warrantor is permitted to pay a third party to provide the warranty goods or services. If the use of fair value is elected, any upfront costs and fees related to the item must be recognized in earnings and cannot be deferred, e.g., debt issue costs. The fair value election is irrevocable and generally made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, even if a company has similar instruments that it elects not to measure based on fair value. At the adoption date, unrealized gains and losses on existing items for which fair value has been elected are reported as a cumulative adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 159, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2008. We are currently determining whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of our eligible items and cannot estimate the impact, if any, which SFAS 159 will have on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations." SFAS No. 141(R) requires Companies to continue to follow the guidance in SFAS No. 141 for certain aspects of business combinations, with additional guidance provided defining the acquirer, recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired, assets and liabilities arising from contingencies, defining a purchase and recognizing and measuring goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. This statement is effective for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. We will implement SFAS No. 141(R) for any business combinations occurring at or subsequent to January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating what impact, if any, SFAS 141(R) will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Commodity Risk
We are dependent upon the availability of paper and paper prices represent a substantial portion of the cost of our products. The supply and price of paper depends on a variety of factors over which we have no control, including environmental and conservation regulations, natural disasters and weather. Assuming we were unable to pass along price increases in paper to our customers, there would be a risk of margin erosion on future business.
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our line of credit. The interest rate on our line of credit fluctuates based on the prime rate. Assuming the $20.0 million line of credit was fully drawn, a 1.0% increase in the prime rate would increase our annual interest expense by $200,000. The $20 million line of credit, effective July 1, 2007, has a term of one year and will mature on June 30, 2008. The line of credit was unused as of December 31, 2007. The maximum amount outstanding under our line of credit cannot exceed 80% of the book value of our eligible accounts receivable. Our line of credit contains limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make certain investments. Advances made under our line of credit accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the prime rate.
Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, in particular because all of our investments are in cash equivalents and marketable securities. The average duration of all of our investments as of December 31, 2007 was less than three months. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we believe that there is no material exposure.
We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The financial statements were prepared by management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity and for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting.
The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
- i.
- pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
- ii.
- provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
- iii.
- provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurances with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal controls may vary over time.
Management assessed the design and effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. On December 1, 2007, the Company acquired Corporate Edge, Inc. Consistent with published guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company excluded Corporate Edge from its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. The total assets from the Corporate Edge acquisition represented approximately 12% of the related consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007. The total revenue and net income related to the acquisition were immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Based on management's assessment using those criteria, as of December 31, 2007, management believes that the Company's internal controls over financial reporting are effective.
Ernst & Young, LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 and the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. Their reports are presented on the following pages. The independent registered public accountants and internal auditors advise management of the results of their audits, and make recommendations to improve the system of internal controls. Management evaluates the audit recommendations and takes appropriate action.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
of InnerWorkings, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of InnerWorkings, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity/members' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2)). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of InnerWorkings, Inc. at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in comformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), InnerWorkings Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 14, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
of InnerWorkings, Inc.
We have audited InnerWorkings, Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). InnerWorkings, Inc.'s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As indicated in the accompanying Management's Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management's assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of Corporate Edge, Inc, which is included in the December 31, 2007 consolidated financial statements of InnerWorkings, Inc. and constituted approximately 12% of total assets as of December 31, 2007. The total revenue and net income related to the acquisition were immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of InnerWorkings, Inc. also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Corporate Edge, Inc.
In our opinion, InnerWorkings, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity/members' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 of InnerWorkings, Inc. and our report dated March 14, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Description of the Business
InnerWorkings, Inc. (the Company) is a leading provider of print procurement services to large and middle market companies in the United States. The Company's services range from procuring, purchasing and delivering print products in individual transactions through a competitive bid process to offering comprehensive outsourced enterprise solutions.
The Company is organized and managed as a single business segment, print procurement services, and is viewed as a single operating segment by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of resource allocation and assessing performance.
On January 3, 2006, the Company completed its conversion to a corporate structure whereby InnerWorkings, LLC converted to InnerWorkings, Inc. As a result, each voting Class A common unit of the LLC converted to a fully paid share of Class A Common Stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. The non-voting Class A common units converted to a fully paid share of Class B Common Stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. In addition, each B and D preferred unit of the LLC converted to fully paid shares of Series B and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively, both with a par value of $0.0001 per share. In connection with the conversion, the undistributed losses as of the conversion date were classified to additional paid in capital.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of InnerWorkings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Preparation of Financial Statements and Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results can differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, which consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, including auction-rate securities, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities or other factors.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when title transfers, which occurs when the product is shipped either from a third party to the customer or shipped directly from our warehouse to the customer. Unbilled revenue
50
InnerWorkings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
relates to shipments that have been made to customers for which the related account receivable has not yet been billed.
In accordance with EITF Issue 99-19,Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis, as opposed to a net basis similar to a commission arrangement, because it bears the risks and benefits associated with revenue-generated activities by: (1) acting as a principal in the transaction; (2) establishing prices; (3) being responsible for fulfillment of the order; (4) taking the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns; and (5) marketing our products, among other things.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities
The Company's marketable securities include auction-rate securities, which are variable rate debt instruments, having long-term maturity dates (typically 15 to 40 years), but whose interest rates are reset through an auction process, most commonly at intervals of seven, 28 and 35 days. The auction process is designed to provide a means by which these securities can be sold, and historically has provided a liquid market for them. In mid-February 2008, liquidity issues in the global credit markets resulted in the failure of auctions, involving substantially all of the auction-rate securities the Company holds. Substantially all of the Company's auction-rate securities are backed by pools of student loans guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Education, and all were rated AAA/Aaa as of December 31, 2007. The Company continues to believe that the credit quality of these securities is high. To date, the Company has collected all interest payable on all of its auction-rate securities when due and expects to continue to do so in the future. The Company understands that issuers and financial markets are working on alternatives that may improve liquidity, although it is not yet clear when or if such efforts will be successful. The Company expects that it will receive payment of the full principal associated with these auction-rate securities. While the recent auction failures will limit the Company's ability to liquidate these investments for some period of time, it does not believe the auction failures will materially impact its ability to fund its working capital needs, capital expenditures or other business requirements.
The Company has classified this investment as "available for sale" under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Accordingly, the short-term investment is reported at fair value, with any related unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses and interest and dividends are included in interest income.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms. Invoices require payment within 30 to 90 days from the invoice date. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Customer account balances with invoices past due 90 days are considered delinquent. Interest is not accrued on outstanding balances.

InnerWorkings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects management's best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management individually reviews all accounts receivable balances and, based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. Fully reserved receivables are reviewed on a monthly basis and uncollectible accounts are written off when all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by first-in, first-out method, and represents the lower of replacement cost or estimated realizable value. Inventories consist of purchased finished goods.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives, by asset class, are as follows:
Computer equipment and software | 3 years | |
Furniture and fixtures | 5 years |
Leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the terms of the related leases.
Internal Use Software
The Company has adopted the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1,Accounting for the Costs of Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. Accordingly, certain costs incurred in the planning and evaluation stage of internal use computer software are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and included in property and equipment. Capitalized internal use software costs are depreciated over the expected economic life of three to five years using the straight-line method. Capitalized internal use software asset depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 was $110,053, $321,524 and $730,638. At December 31, 2006 and 2007, the net book value of internal use software costs were $1,389,271 and $2,515,983, respectively.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the fair value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. For goodwill impairment test purposes, the Company has one reporting unit. The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill using a two-step impairment test. In the first step, the fair value for the Company is compared to its book value including goodwill. In the case that the fair value is less than the book value, a second step is performed which compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the book value of the goodwill. The fair value for the goodwill is
52
InnerWorkings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
determined based on the difference between the fair value of the Company and the net fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the book value, the difference is recognized as an impairment. The Company has elected to test for goodwill impairment during the fourth quarter of each year and as a result of the 2007 analysis performed, no impairment charges are required.
The following is a summary of the goodwill balance as of December 31:
Balance as of December 31, 2005 | $ | 352,954 | |
Goodwill acquired related to 2006 acquisitions | 9,385,605 | ||
Balance as of December 31, 2006 | $ | 9,738,559 | |
Goodwill acquired related to 2007 acquisitions | 14,686,099 | ||
Finalization of purchase accounting for 2006 acquisitions | 6,098,051 | ||
Balance as of December 31, 2007 | $ | 30,522,709 | |
SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with finite lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever impairment indicators exist. In accordance with SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets the Company evaluates the potential impairment of finite-lived acquired intangible assets when appropriate. If the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable based on a forecasted-undiscounted cash flow analysis, such asset would be reduced by the estimated shortfall of fair value to recorded value. The Company's intangible assets consist of customer lists, trade names and noncompete agreements, which are being amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated weighted-average useful lives of approximately 14 years, four years and five years, respectively.
Following is a summary of the intangible assets as of December 31:
| 2006 | 2007 | Weighted- Average Life | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Customer lists | $ | 6,245,978 | $ | 11,082,459 | 13.4 years | |||

Intangible assets, net | $ | 6,531,191 | $ | 10,632,761 | ||||
Amortization expense related to these intangible assets was $138,360, $389,076 and $885,860 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs are classified in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.
Investment
Investment consists of an investment in an affiliated company that the Company does not control and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over such affiliated companies' operations and financial policies. This investment is accounted for using the cost method.
Income Taxes
Through December 31, 2005, the Company was treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Federal taxes were not payable by or provided for the Company. Members were taxed individually on their share of the Company's earnings.
On January 3, 2006, as discussed in Note 7, the Company converted from an LLC to a "C" corporation. As a result of this conversion, the Company now accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109), under which deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Any change in the valuation allowance would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, or FIN 48, on January 1, 2007. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at adoption and there was no effect on our financial condition or results of operations as a result of implementing FIN 48. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As the date of the adoption of FIN 48, the Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest or penalties related to tax benefits recognized for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Based on the Company's evaluation, it was concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. The evaluation was performed for the tax

years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2007.
Advertising
Costs of advertising, which are expensed as incurred by the Company, were $81,298, $134,091 and $175,337 for each of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006, and 2007, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and complied with the disclosure requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. To value option grants prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the minimum value method. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123(R),Share-Based Payments, using the prospective transition method and Black-Scholes as the option valuation model. Under the prospective transition method, the Company continues to account for nonvested equity awards outstanding at the date of adopting Statement 123(R) in the same manner as they had been accounted for prior to adoption. As a result, under APB No. 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the grant date between the estimated fair value of the Company's stock and the exercise price of options to purchase that stock. The compensation expense is then amortized over the vesting period of the stock options. As of December 31, 2006, all options granted under APB No. 25 had exercise prices which were equal to or exceeded fair value on the date of the grant and therefore no compensation expense was recorded.
The Company issued 1,362,050 and 86,000 options during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. In addition, on November 26, 2007, the Company issued a grant of 50,500 shares of restricted shares to employees. Using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the assumptions listed below, the Company recorded $561,470 and $1,061,582, including $19,933 in compensation expense related to restricted stock options, for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
As a result of adopting FAS 123(R) in fiscal 2006, the Company's income before taxes and net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 are $511,677 and $309,565 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2006 are $0.01 lower, than if the Company had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB No. 25.
The following assumptions were utilized in the valuation for options granted in 2006 and 2007:
| 2006 | 2007 | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
Dividend yield | —% | —% | ||
Risk-free interest rate | 4.62%-5.02% | 4.38%-5.05% | ||
Expected life | 5 years | 5 years | ||
Volatility | 33.5% | 33.5% |

Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109), under which deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. As a result of the $40,000,000 share redemption occurring in January 2006 (see note 14), and as the Company redeemed the shares as a LLC, the tax basis of the Company increased resulting in the recognition of a deferred tax asset of $13,200,000, for which a valuation allowance of $6,600,000 was recorded with a corresponding net increase to additional paid in capital of $6,600,000. Annually, the Company reviews the continuing need for the valuation allowance based on the factors existing at the time of review. The Company evaluated this valuation allowance as of December 31, 2007 and as it was more likely than not that their existing deferred tax assets would be fully realized, the valuation allowance was reduced to zero.
The provision for income taxes consisted of the following components for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007:

The Company has used the net proceeds of the follow-on offering to acquire or make strategic investments in complementary businesses and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
10. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding plus share equivalents that would arise from the exercise of share options and the conversion of preferred shares. Conversion of 1,600,000 of Series D preferred shares were excluded from the calculation in 2005, as they were anti-dilutive. During 2006, all outstanding preferred shares were converted to common shares in connection with the initial public offering completed in August 2006.

11. Stock-Based Compensation Plans
In January 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Unit Option Plan providing for the issuance of stock options of Class A common stock. Under the Plan, the Company may issue options, at the discretion of the Board, to purchase Class A nonvoting member units. The Plan was administered by the Board of Managers who determined the exercise price of options, number of units to be issued, and the vesting period. As specified in the Plan, the exercise price per share shall not be less than the fair market value on the effective date of grant. The term of an option did not exceed ten years, and the options generally vest ratably over four years from the date of grant.

11. Stock-Based Compensation Plans (Continued)
During the third quarter of 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan). Upon adoption, the 2004 Unit Option Plan was merged into the Stock Incentive Plan and ceased to separately exist. Outstanding awards under the Unit Option Plan are now subject to the Stock Incentive Plan and no additional awards may be made under the Unit Option Plan on or after the effective date of the Stock Incentive Plan. A total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. A summary of stock option activity is as follows:
| Outstanding Options | Weighted-Average Exercise Price | Aggregate Intrinsic Value | ||||||

Options vested at December 31, 2007 | 3,316,627 | $ | 0.95 | $ | 54,105,932 | ||||
In May 2006, the Company cancelled contingent options to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock previously granted to John R. Walter, the Chairman of the Board, and granted Mr. Walter new options to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock, and the Company cancelled contingent options to purchase 600,000 shares of common stock previously granted to Steven E. Zuccarini, the Chief Executive Officer, and granted Mr. Zuccarini new options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock, in each case at an exercise price of $4.92 per share.
The cancellation of the outstanding contingent options and the related grant of new options was accounted for as a modification in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R). These options will vest ratably over six years. The Company calculates compensation expense under SFAS No. 123 (R) based on the Black-Scholes value of options at the time of grant and records compensation expense in equal amounts as the options vest. The Company engaged an independent valuation specialist to perform, contemporaneous with the granting of the above options, an appraisal of the fair market value of the common shares as of May 8, 2006. It determined the fair value to be $5.35 per share on that date.
As of December 31, 2007, there were 4,592,001 options issued pursuant to the Plan. These options have exercise prices ranging from $0.43 to $18.69, vest ratably from one to six years and have a weighted-average contractual life of 7.38 years. As of December 31, 2006, there were 5,479,367 options issued pursuant to the Plan. These options have exercise prices ranging from $0.50 to $16.41, vest ratably from one to six years and have a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 8.35 years.

Vested options totaled 3,639,667 and 3,316,627 shares as of December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, there were 4,323,500 options issued pursuant to the Plan. These options have exercise prices ranging from $0.50 to $1.00, vest ratably from one to six years and have a weighted-average remaining contractual life of nine years. At December 31, 2005, 1,493,500 shares were vested.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding for 2005, 2006 and 2007 was $495,000, $77.2 million, and $67.9 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable for 2005, 2006, and 2007 was $153,000, $56.1 million and $54.1 million, respectively.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company's closing stock price on the last trading day each fiscal year and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. These amounts change based on the fair market value of the Company's stock which was $0.65, $15.96 and $17.26 on the last business day of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006, and 2007, respectively.
The fair value of the Company's common stock for options granted during 2005 was estimated by its management. The Company did not obtain contemporaneous valuations by an independent valuation specialist during this period. In August 2005, the Company engaged an independent valuation specialist to perform a retrospective valuation of its common stock as of November 30, 2004. The independent specialist arrived at a fair value using the income approach and determined the fair value of the Company's common stock to be $0.43 per share. The Company applied the independent specialist's methodology and determined the fair value of its common stock to be $0.65 per share as of June 30, 2005 and as of September 30, 2005. The Company accounted for stock-based compensation during this period in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25. The exercise price of all of the options that the Company granted during this period was at or above fair market value. As a result, there was no intrinsic value associated with these option grants. Pursuant to APB Opinion No. 25, the Company was not required to record any compensation expense in connection with these option grants.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2007 was $14.23.
There was $4,539,289 and $4,702,444 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to the stock-based compensation granted under the Plans as of December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 5.52 and 3.92 years, respectively. The stock-based compensation expense recorded for fiscal 2006 and 2007 was $561,470

Restricted Stock
Eligible employees receive restricted stock as a portion of their total compensation. The restricted stock options vest over various time periods depending upon the grant, but generally vest from zero to five years and convert to unrestricted common stock at the conclusion of the vesting period. The Company measures the compensation cost based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock at the grant date. There was $676,967 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to the restricted stock options as of December 31, 2007. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.91 years. The stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 was approximately $19,000.

Class B Preferred Shares
The Company had authorized 937,500 Class B preferred shares, all of which were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had a receivable of $188,469 for proceeds to be received for the issuance of Class B shares. Class B preferred shares were entitled to receive a distribution preference over Class A shares at a rate of $.064 per Class B preferred in the first year and increasing $.08 per year to a maximum of $.096 per year, as defined in the agreement, which are payable quarterly in advance beginning on the date of issuance. Class B preferred shares were also entitled to a liquidation preference over the Class A common shares at a rate of $1.60 per Class B preferred share. Class B preferred shares were convertible at the option of each Class B preferred share in such a number of Class A voting common shares as is determined by dividing $.80 by the Class B conversion price, as defined in the agreement. The Class B conversion price shall initially be $.80, and then adjusted, as defined in the agreement. As a result of the initial public offering that was completed in August 2006, all outstanding preferred shares were converted to common shares. In addition, $39,577 of dividends were paid to the Series B shareholders in the year ended December 31, 2006.
Class C Preferred Shares
The Company had authorized 2,580,000 Class C preferred shares, all of which were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2004. The Class C preferred shares were entitled to receive preferential cumulative distributions payable in arrears on a quarterly basis at an annual rate of $.08 per unit, beginning subsequent to June 2003. No Class A or Class B holders would have been paid until all Class C distributions were satisfied. The Class C preferred shares also received a liquidation preference of $1.00 per Class C preferred share before any Class B or Class A members may have received any liquidation payments. Class C preferred shares were convertible automatically into shares of Class A voting common shares upon the consent of the majority of the outstanding Class C preferred shareholders or upon the filing of a registration on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as defined in the agreement. The number of Class C preferred shares converted would have been in such a number of Class A voting common shares as was determined by dividing $1.00 by the Class C preferred conversion price in effect at the time of conversion. The Class C preferred conversion price was $1.00 initially, and then adjusted, as defined in the agreement. The Class C preferred share members of the Company had a put option effective March 31, 2008, that required the Company to purchase any such shares of Class C preferred shares held by the holder. The purchase price per Class C preferred share was equal to $1.00 per unit, plus interest computed at 15% per annum, noncompounded, less the amount of all distributions paid to the Class C preferred shareholders. The Company also had a call option on its Class C preferred shares any time after March 31, 2004, that required the holders of the Class C preferred shares to sell any or all shares held. The purchase price was equal to $1.00 per unit, plus interest computed at 15% per annum, noncompounded, less the amount of all distributions paid to the Class C preferred shareholders. In February 2005, the Company received $2,000,000 and 1,000,000 Class C units from a member in exchange for 450,000 Class A voting units and 960,000 Class D preferred units. In addition, in June 2005, the Class C shareholders elected to convert the remaining 1,580,000 Class C units into 1,580,000 Class A voting units.

Class D Preferred Shares
The Company had authorized 1,600,000 Class D preferred shares, all of which were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2005. The Class D preferred shares were entitled to preferential cumulative distributions payable in arrears on a monthly basis at an annual rate of $.375 per unit, beginning subsequent to August 2004. No Class A, Class B, or Class C holders shall be paid until all Class D holders' distributions were satisfied. In addition, the Class D preferred shares were entitled to receive preferential distributions at an annual rate of $.09375 per unit payable in a lump sum upon the preference satisfaction date, as defined in the agreement. The Company was required under the original terms to pay the preference satisfaction amount, defined as the sum of the Class D preferred purchase price per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, in August 2008 (the preference satisfaction date), which could be extended to August 2009. If the preference satisfaction amount was distributed, each D Preferred Unit entitled its holder to all of the rights of an A Common Unit, and the preferential rights of each D Preferred Unit shall automatically terminate. In addition, if the preference satisfaction amount was distributed, the Class D holders would receive 100,000 A Common units. As the Class D preferred shares were mandatorily redeemable at a fixed date, these shares were classified as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2004, pursuant to SFAS No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments With Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, and the related dividends were reflected as interest expense. In February 2005, the terms of the Class D preferred share were amended to remove the required payment date; the holders now have the right to demand redemption of the Class D preferred shares, no earlier than August 15, 2008, and no later than August 15, 2009 (the Final Preference Satisfaction Date). In the event the holders do not demand repayment, the Company shall immediately issue 200,000 Class A voting shares to the holders of the Class D preferred shares as additional consideration. The Class D preferred shares also receive a liquidation preference of $3.125 per share before any Class C, Class B, or Class A members receive any liquidation payments.
The Class D preferred stock (i) may, at the option of a holder, be converted into Class A common stock and (ii) will automatically convert into Class A common stock (1) upon the election of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Class D preferred stock or (2) upon the closing of a firmly underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of common stock for the Company's account. The number of shares of Class A common stock to which a Class D preferred stock holder is entitled upon conversion is calculated by multiplying the applicable conversion rate then in effect (currently 1.0) by the number of Class D preferred shares to be converted. As of December 31, 2004, 640,000 shares of Class A common stock and as of December 31, 2005, 1,600,0000 shares of Class A common stock would have been required to be issued upon the conversion of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class D preferred stock. These shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, as the impact resulting from the conversion and dividends paid would be anti dilutive.
As a result of the initial public offering that was completed in August 2006, all outstanding preferred shares were converted to common shares. In addition, $343,118 of dividends and a $5,000,000 preference payment were paid to the Series D shareholders in the year ended December 31, 2006.

Class E Preferred Shares
In January 2006, the Company issued 10,167,730 shares of Series E units in exchange for $50,000,000 in cash. The Company retained $10,000,000 of the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, while the remaining $40,000,000 redeemed shares held by certain existing shareholders. The Series E preferred shares accrue preferential cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 4%. Series E preferred shares are also entitled to a liquidation preference over the other junior preferred and common stock shareholders an amount equal to 50% of the original purchase price per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. In addition, the Series E units shall be automatically converted into common stock with the consent of the Series E shareholders upon a firmly underwritten public offering of common shares at a public offering price no less than 1.75 times the original purchase price within 18 months of the closing and 2.00 times after 18 months and a total offering no less than $25,000,000.
The terms and conditions relating to the issuance of Series E preferred stock and related redemption transactions were determined through arms-length negotiations among the Series E preferred investors, the holders of a majority of the common shares and the Company. As part of the arms-length negotiations, the parties agreed that $40 million of the Series E investment would be used to redeem shares of common stock on a pro rata basis at $4.92 per share. In particular, the parties agreed on the ownership percentages that the shares of Series E preferred stock and common stock, each as a class, would represent in the Company on a post-transaction basis. This ownership percentage, rather than relative priority or dividend rights, was the key factor in determining the redemption price. To arrive at the appropriate ownership percentage for the holders of common stock, it was determined that $40 million of the Series E investment proceeds would redeem 8,134,184 shares of common stock at a redemption price of $4.92 per share. A redemption price of more or less than $4.92 per share would have resulted in the holders of common stock, as a class, owning a larger or smaller percentage of the Company, on a post-transaction basis, than was agreed to in the arms-length negotiations relating to the Series E investment.
As a result of the issuance of Series E units, the Company amended the Series B and Series D dividend rights. The dividend rights were amended to pay a cash dividend at the rate of 4% of the original issue price. In addition, the dividends shall be cumulative and accrue from and after the date of issuance. The dividends will only become payable upon the occurrence of certain events, including a liquidation event, conversion or redemption of the shares or if the Board declares them to be paid.
As a result of the Company's initial public offering that was completed in August 2006, the 10,167,730 Series E preferred shares were converted into 10,167,730 shares of common stock. In addition, $1,263,441 of dividends and a $500,000 preference payment were paid to the Series E shareholders in the year ended December 31, 2006.
13. Significant Customer
Sales to a single, different customer made up approximately 16%, 14% and 12% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. All remaining revenue for the years ending December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, was made up of sales to customers less than 10%. The amount included in accounts receivable for this customer at December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 was approximately $13,000, $3,000,000 and $1,900,000, respectively.

14. Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash balances in various financial institutions located in the United States. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000 per institution. The uninsured cash balance at December 31, 2007, was $25,889,948.
15. Benefit Plans
The Company adopted a 401(k) savings plan effective February 1, 2005, covering all of the Company's employees upon completion of 90 days of service. Employees may contribute a percentage of eligible compensation on both a before-tax basis and after-tax basis. The Company has the right to make discretionary contributions to the plan. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, the Company did not make any contributions to the plan.
16. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Statement is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting SFAS 157.
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 159"). SFAS 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees and issued debt. Other eligible items include firm commitments for financial instruments that otherwise would not be recognized at inception and non-cash warranty obligations where a warrantor is permitted to pay a third party to provide the warranty goods or services. If the use of fair value is elected, any upfront costs and fees related to the item must be recognized in earnings and cannot be deferred, e.g., debt issue costs. The fair value election is irrevocable and generally made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, even if a company has similar instruments that it elects not to measure based on fair value. At the adoption date, unrealized gains and losses on existing items for which fair value has been elected are reported as a cumulative adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 159, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2008. The company currently is determining whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of its eligible items and cannot estimate the impact, if any, which SFAS 159 will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations." SFAS No. 141(R) requires companies to continue to follow the guidance in SFAS No. 141 for certain aspects of business combinations, with additional guidance provided defining

the acquirer, recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired, assets and liabilities arising from contingencies, defining a purchase and recognizing and measuring goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. This statement is effective for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company will implement SFAS No. 141(R) for any business combinations occurring at or subsequent to January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating what impact, if any, SFAS 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f).

In order to formalize this relationship, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Lefkofsky on March 14, 2008. Under the agreement, Mr. Lefkofsky has agreed to make himself available to provide advisory services. The agreement has a term of 12 months, which may be extended upon mutual consent.
