A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
General Nature of Business
SGS International, Inc. (“the Company”), headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, supplies photographic and digital images and manufactures flexographic printing plates and rotogravure cylinders for the packaging printing industry. As of September 30, 2007, the Company had 37 locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and China.
Acquisitions
On February 28, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary, Southern Graphic Systems, Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with C.M. Jackson Associates, Inc. (“CMJ”), a supplier of design and creative, production art and pre-press, packaging management, project tracking and digital asset management services with an emphasis on “store brands.” Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired substantially all of CMJ’s assets for an aggregate cash consideration of $16,650 (the “CMJ Consideration”). In conjunction with this acquisition, the Company borrowed $8,000 on its acquisition facility. The acquired assets include CMJ’s leasehold interest in its single facility located in Ramsey, New Jersey. The Company will operate the acquired business under the “C.M. Jackson Associates, Inc.” name. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions. $5,000 of the CMJ Consideration is payable in two equal installments on February 28, 2008 and 2009, respectively. The deferred consideration installments are subject to forfeiture if certain key CMJ employees now employed by the Company terminate their employment before the expiration of their respective employment agreements. A portion of the second deferred installment is payable only if the acquired business achieves a specified threshold of earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization. This $5,000 of deferred consideration will continue to be recorded as compensation expense through 2009. The purchase price allocation for the acquisition from CMJ is provided below, but remains subject to completion of final fair value allocations.

Results of operations of the acquired business from CMJ are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations from the date of the acquisition. Pro forma results of the Company, assuming the acquisition from CMJ had been made at the beginning of each period presented, would not have been materially different from the results reported.
On April 2, 2007, the Company and SGS Packaging Europe Holdings Limited (“Holdings”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into Share Sale and Purchase Agreements (the “Agreements”) under which Holdings acquired the outstanding shares of McGurk Studios Limited (“Studios”) and Thames McGurk Limited (“Thames” and, together with Studios, “McGurks”) for an initial aggregate consideration (the “Initial McGurk Consideration”) of 9,388 pounds sterling (approximately $18,566 based on the U.S. dollar/pound sterling exchange rate on April 2, 2007), subject to adjustment as described in the Agreements. The Initial McGurk Consideration consists of a cash payment in the amount of 8,543 pounds sterling (approximately $16,896 based on the April 2, 2007 U.S. dollar/pound sterling exchange rate) and assumption of McGurks’ short-term and long-term indebtedness in the amount of 845 pounds sterling (approximately $1,670 based on the April 2, 2007 U.S. dollar/pound sterling exchange rate). On September 4, 2007, 375 pounds sterling (approximately $742 based on the April 2, 2007 U.S. dollar/pound sterling exchange rate) was paid as additional consideration to McGurks based on the financial results of McGurks. McGurks is a UK-based provider of end-to-end digital design, artwork and reprographics for packaging solutions with locations in Hull and London, England, and Hong Kong.
On March 30, 2007, in connection with the financing of the acquisition of McGurks described above, the Company borrowed the sum of $15.0 million under its acquisition facility (“the McGurk Borrowing”).
The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is provided below. The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is subject to completion of final fair value allocations.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and related footnotes that would normally be required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial reporting. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 2006 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair statement of financial information for the interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2007.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SGS International, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries and companies more than fifty percent owned. These subsidiaries include Southern Graphic Systems, Inc., Project Dove Holdco, Inc., Project Dove Manitoba, L.P., Southern Graphic Systems-Canada, Co., Southern Graphic Systems Mexico, S. De R.L. De C.V, SGS Packaging Europe Holdings Limited, SGS Packaging Europe Limited, MCG Graphics, Ltd., The Box Room Limited, SGS Packaging Netherlands B.V. These subsidiaries also include Mozaic Group, Ltd (“Mozaic”) through February 28, 2007, McGurk Studios Limited and Thames McGurk Limited since April 2, 2007 and SGS Asia Pacific Limited (a newly formed subsidiary) since July 11, 2007.
On February 28, 2007, the Company sold its controlling interest in Mozaic to a third party. The Company has retained a 10% interest in Mozaic. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 does not include the accounts of Mozaic. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 include the accounts of Mozaic through the date of its sale on February 28, 2007. Effective March 1, 2007, the Company is accounting for the investment in Mozaic using the cost method.
Use of Estimates
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make certain estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. They may also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Areas that require significant judgments, estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, accounts receivable and the allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets, accrued health and welfare benefits, and tax matters. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these judgments but actual results could differ from those estimates upon subsequent resolution of some matters.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standard
The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, and interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. At the adoption date and as of September 30, 2007, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. There were no such amounts recognized for the three months or nine months ended September 30, 2007.

Accounting adjustments
During the second and third quarters of 2007, the Company identified certain inventory and non-income related tax items totaling $1,335 that were adjustments relating to prior periods. The Company performed an evaluation to determine if the errors resulting from incorrectly recording these items were material to any individual prior period, or if correcting these errors in 2007 is material to the 2007 expected annual results, taking into account the requirements of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (SAB 108). Based on this analysis, the Company concluded the errors were not material to any individual prior period or to results reported in 2007 and, therefore, the correction of the error does not require previously filed financial statements to be restated. In accordance with SAB 108, the Company has reflected the portion of these adjustments related to 2006, $745, as adjustments to the 2006 financial statements and has recorded the remaining $590 related to the first two quarters of 2007 as a reduction of cost of goods sold during the third quarter of 2007.
Included in the analysis noted above, and also concluded to be not material, was a change in the Company’s accounting policy for shipping and handling Costs. The Company changed its accounting policy to include amounts invoiced to customers for shipping and handling costs as a component of net sales. Prior to January 1, 2007, amounts invoiced for shipping and handling costs were netted against the actual cost incurred and reflected as a reduction in cost of sales. Since this is not a preferred method of recording such revenue, the Company changed its policy to be effective January 1, 2007.
The sales in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 include $1,019 and $1,026 of amounts invoiced to customers for shipping and handling costs related to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the three months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The adjusted sales and cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are $75,126 and $48,891, respectively. The adjusted sales and cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2007 are $80,363 and $54,142, respectively.
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, $2,079 of the Company’s income before income taxes was due to a change in an accounting estimate concerning the Company’s self-insurance accrual. The Company revised the estimate for the self-insurance accrual based on additional information concerning the payment of self-insurance claims and the period during which these claims were incurred. This change in accounting estimate had no impact on the consolidated statement of income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 as the adjustment entirely related to 2006 operations.

D. Contingencies and Commitments
Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against entities within the Company. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on currently available facts and in light of legal and other defenses available to us, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
E. Income Taxes
At the end of each quarter, the Company makes its best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year and the impact of discrete items, if any, and adjusts the quarterly tax rate, as necessary. The effective tax rate was 36.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 41.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to (26.9)% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 49.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The change in rates for 2007 compared to 2006 results from a combination of a valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, the dispersion of global income and certain discrete items recognized during the periods.

(all amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise stated)
We currently expect our effective tax rate for the 2007 fiscal year to be between 47% and 48% due to the impact of permanent items. The Company has not recorded a deferred tax liability for undistributed earnings of certain international subsidiaries because such earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested in foreign countries. As of September 30, 2007, undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries where earnings would be considered permanently reinvested were a loss of approximately $439. For certain subsidiaries where the undistributed earnings are not considered permanently reinvested, the Company has recorded a deferred tax liability, net of expected foreign tax credits.
Tax years December 30, 2005 to December 31, 2005 and January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006 are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities. There are no income tax examinations currently in process. For the tax years ended December 31, 2003 through December 29, 2005, the Company has been indemnified for all taxes, interest and penalties by the previous owner.
F. Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Quarterly Financial Statements (unaudited)
The Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations have been restated for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to reflect the correction of errors as described below.
The following table summarizes the effects of the restatement adjustments discussed below on income before income taxes for each of the previously reported quarterly periods.

Revenue for Unbilled Accounts Receivable
The adjustment to income before income taxes is to recognize revenue for items shipped but not billed when the criteria of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” had been met.
Errors in Recording Properties, Plants, and Equipment
The adjustment to income before income taxes to accurately record depreciation and amortization for fixed and intangible assets is due to the following items:
• | The Company was in the process of installing a fixed asset ledger system during 2006. As a result, certain balances within construction work in process were not properly transferred to the fixed asset categories of buildings, equipment, or software in a timely manner. The delay in transferring these assets into the respective fixed asset categories and designating the assets as placed in service resulted in an understatement of depreciation and amortization expense of $486 and $801 in the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. |
• | The Company understated depreciation expense and amortization expense due to depreciating fixed assets and amortizing customer relationships using incorrect useful lives. Accordingly, depreciation expense and amortization expense were understated by $306 and $922 in the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. |
• | The Company inappropriately expensed amounts that should have been capitalized as fixed assets. Accordingly, cost of goods sold was overstated by $384 and $1,337 in the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. |
Other Items
The following items also represented errors detected that impacted the restatements for the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2006:
• | The Company did not recognize the appropriate amount of revenue for a significant customer in accordance with the pricing terms of the related sales contract. As a result, revenue was overstated in the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2006. |
• | The Company amortized deferred financing fees using the straight-line method, as opposed to the effective interest method. As a result, interest expense was restated for the three months ended September 30, 2006. |
Tax Impact
The restatement to the provision for taxes on income is due to the tax effects of the adjustments to income before income taxes.

Sales. Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased $10.8 million, or 16.4%, to $76.5 million from $65.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in sales was primarily due to sales from acquired businesses. The operations from businesses acquired during 2006 added incremental revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $1.0 million. The acquisition of the operations of C. M. Jackson Associates, Inc. on February 28, 2007 added incremental revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $2.7 million. The acquisition of McGurk Studios Limited and Thames McGurk Limited (collectively “McGurks”) on April 2, 2007 added incremental revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $5.0 million. The remaining increase in sales was primarily due to a change in accounting policy for shipping and handling of $1.2 and an increase in sales of $0.9 million related to foreign currency fluctuations.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased $9.2 million, or 21.6%, to $51.6 million from $42.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to costs of goods sold from acquired businesses. The operations of businesses acquired during 2006 added incremental cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.7 million. The acquisition of the operations of C. M. Jackson Associates, Inc. on February 28, 2007 added incremental cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $2.2 million. The acquisition of McGurks on April 2, 2007 added incremental cost of good sold for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $3.2 million. The remaining increase in cost of goods sold was primarily due to a change in accounting policy for shipping and handling, the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and the reduced expense during the three months ended September 30, 2006 due to a change in an accounting estimate for the self-insurance liability.
Gross Margin. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased $1.6 million, or 6.9%, to $24.9 million from $23.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to additional gross margin of $2.6 million from the acquired businesses previously discussed, partially offset by the reduced expense during the three months ended September 30, 2006 due to a change in an accounting estimate for the self-insurance liability.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased $1.8 million, or 19.4%, to $11.3 million from $9.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was due to additional overhead costs from acquired businesses. The acquisitions during 2006 added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses for

the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.3 million. The acquisition of the operations of C. M. Jackson Associates, Inc. on February 28, 2007 added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $1.0 million. The acquisition of McGurks on April 2, 2007 added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.6 million.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased $1.2 million, or 23.4%, to $6.1 million from $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The acquisitions during 2006 added incremental depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.1 million. The acquisition of the operations of C. M. Jackson Associates, Inc. on February 28, 2007 added incremental depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.2 million. The acquisition of McGurks on April 2, 2007 added incremental depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $0.4 million. The remaining increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.5 million was primarily due to depreciation and amortization of assets acquired or placed in service during 2006 and 2007.
Interest Expense.Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased by $0.3 million, or 3.7%, to $9.4 million from $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Interest expense from borrowings on the acquisition facility during 2007 added $0.5 million of interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase in interest expense was partially offset by a reduction of $0.2 million in interest expense on the senior secured term loan for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006, due to lower average interest rates on the senior secured term loan during the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. The weighted average interest rate on the senior secured term loan is 7.80% at September 30, 2007.
Other Expense (Income), net.Other expense (income), net for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $0.5 million of expense compared to $0.1 million of income for the three months ended September 30, 2006. This fluctuation was primarily due to a larger loss on foreign exchange during the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006
Loss on continuing operations before income taxes. Loss on continuing operations before income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased by $2.3 million to a loss of $2.4 million compared to a loss of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease in income was primarily due to the reduced expense during the three months ended September 30, 2006 due to a change in an accounting estimate for the self-insurance liability and the expenses from acquired businesses, partially offset by sales from acquired businesses, as previously discussed.
Loss on discontinued operations.There was a loss on discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2006 for the results of operations of Mozaic Group, Ltd. The controlling interest in Mozaic Group, Ltd. was sold on February 28, 2007.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes. The effective tax rate was 36.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to (26.9%) for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The change in rates for 2007 compared to 2006 results from a combination of a valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, the dispersion of global income and certain discrete items recognized during the periods. We currently expect our effective tax rate for the 2007 fiscal year to be between 47% and 48% due to the impact of permanent items.
Net loss. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2007 fluctuated by $1.2 million to a loss of $1.5 million from a loss of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. This increased loss was primarily due to the reduced expense during the three months ended September 30, 2006 due to a change in an accounting estimate for the self-insurance liability and the expenses from acquired businesses, partially offset by sales from acquired businesses, as previously discussed.

Table of Contents
2, 2007 added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 of $1.2 million. The remaining increase of $1.1 million was attributable to higher costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 for an expanded sales force and severance costs associated with plant restructurings.

Interest expense from borrowings on the acquisition facility in 2007 added $1.0 million of interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The remainder of this increase was primarily due to higher average interest rates on the senior secured term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The weighted average interest rate on the senior secured term loan is 7.80% at September 30, 2007.
Other Expense, net.Other expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $0.7 million compared to $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Income from (loss on) continuing operations before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was a loss of $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to income of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This fluctuation was primarily due to the expenses from acquired businesses partially offset by sales from acquired businesses, as well as increases in interest expense and depreciation and amortization, as previously discussed.
Income from (loss on) discontinued operations.The income from (loss on) discontinued operations fluctuated from a gain of $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to a loss of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This fluctuation was primarily due to the gain on the divestiture of the controlling interest in Mozaic Group, Ltd. of $0.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate was 41.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 49.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The change in rates for 2007 compared to 2006 results from a combination of a valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, the dispersion of global income and certain discrete items recognized during the periods. We currently expect our effective tax rate for the 2007 fiscal year to be between 47% and 48% due to the impact of permanent items.
Net income (loss). Net income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 fluctuated by $2.3 million to a loss of $0.6 million from income of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease in income was primarily due to the expenses from acquired businesses partially offset by sales from acquired businesses, as well as increases in interest expense and depreciation and amortization, as previously discussed.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2007, we had $14.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $42.6 million in adjusted working capital1 compared with $12.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $42.0 million in adjusted working capital1 at December 31, 2006. The $1.6 million increase in cash is primarily due to $29.2 million used for business acquisitions and $8.9 million used for acquisition of property, plant and equipment, partially offset by $23.0 million of borrowings on the acquisition facility and $18.1 million of cash provided by operating activities. The $0.6 million increase in working capital is primarily due to working capital associated with acquired businesses and increases in inventories, other current assets and the current portion of deferred tax assets, partially offset by an increase in accrued interest.
1 | Adjusted working capital is defined as current assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) less current liabilities (excluding the current portion of short-term and long-term obligations). However, adjusted working capital is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, and when analyzing our financial position, investors should use adjusted working capital in addition to, and not as an alternative for working capital, as defined in GAAP. The following table reconciles working capital to adjusted working capital: |
September 30, 2007 | December 31, 2006 | |||||||
Working capital | $ | 55,193 | $ | 51,019 | ||||
Less cash | (14,286 | ) | (12,658 | ) | ||||
Add current portion of short-term and long-term obligations | 1,726 | 3,605 | ||||||
Adjusted working capital | $ | 42,633 | $ | 41,966 | ||||
We expect that cash generated from operating activities and availability under our revolving credit facility, which is included in our senior secured credit facility, will be our principal sources of liquidity. At September 30, 2007, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, which had $35 million of borrowing availability. Based on our current level of operations, we believe our cash flow from operations and availability under the revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. There is no assurance, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations, or that future borrowings will be available to us under our revolving credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to repay our indebtedness, or to fund our other liquidity needs.
We are highly leveraged and our aggregate indebtedness at September 30, 2007 was $344.9 million. In 2011, our debt service requirements may substantially increase as a result of the maturity of the senior secured term loans on December 30, 2011. However, we anticipate that we will refinance these borrowings prior to the maturity of the senior secured term loans. Our ability to operate our business, service our debt requirements and reduce our total debt will depend upon our future operating performance.
Our senior secured credit facility contains customary financial and other covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined in the senior secured credit facility agreement. Our senior secured credit facility also places certain restrictions on our ability to make capital expenditures. As of September 30, 2007 we were in compliance with all covenants. Below are the required financial covenant levels and the actual levels as of September 30, 2007:
Required | Actual | |||||
Maximum leverage ratio | 6.00 | 5.30 | ||||
Minimum interest coverage ratio | 1.60 | 1.88 | ||||
Maximum capital expenditures | not to exceed $ | 15.0 million | $ | 8.9 million |

On February 28, 2007, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with C.M. Jackson Associates, Inc. (“CMJ”).” Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired substantially all of CMJ’s assets for an aggregate cash purchase price of $11,650. In conjunction with this acquisition, we borrowed $8.0 million on our acquisition facility.
On April 2, 2007, we acquired McGurks for an aggregate purchase price of $18.2 million ($16.9 million of cash and $1.3 million through the assumption of short-term and long-term indebtedness). In conjunction with this acquisition, we borrowed $15.0 million on our acquisition facility.
Cash flow
Nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006
Cash flows from operating activities.Net cash provided by operating activities was $18.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $20.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease was due to a reduction in net income, partially offset by changes in working capital.
Cash flows from investing activities. Net cash used for investing activities was $37.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in cash used for investing activities is primarily due to the acquisition of the operations of C.M. Jackson Associates, Inc. and the acquisition of McGurks, which included cash payments related to these acquisitions of $12.0 and $18.0 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. In addition, capital expenditures increased $3.8 million to $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Capital expenditures are generally made to replace existing assets, support new business or customer initiatives, increase productivity, facilitate cost reductions, or meet regulatory requirements. Our operations typically do not have large capital requirements.
Cash flows from financing activities.Net cash provided by financing activities was $20.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The primary reason for this fluctuation was borrowings of $23.0 million on the acquisition facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to no borrowings on the acquisition facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Contractual Obligations
The $22.9 million outstanding on the acquisition facility is payable in quarterly installments of approximately $56 thousand through September 2011, with the remaining amount due at maturity on December 31, 2011. Borrowings on the acquisition facility bear interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%. At September 30, 2007, the interest rate was 7.7%.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies
We adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, and interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48) on

Table of Contents
January 1, 2007. At the adoption date and as of September 30, 2007, we had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required.
We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. There were no such amounts recognized for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007.
There have been no other material changes to our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2006.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
At September 30, 2007 there were no material changes in our December 31, 2006 market risks relating to interest and foreign exchange rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, members of management, at the direction (and with the participation) of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act)), as of September 30, 2007 and concluded that they were effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
There were seven material weaknesses discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2006, all of which have been remediated as discussed below.
Notwithstanding these material weaknesses which continued to exist prior to September 30, 2007, management has concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Based on the evaluation performed as of September 30, 2007, management has concluded that all of the material weaknesses previously reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2006 have been remediated as a result of the following changes in internal control:
• | Lack of sufficient resources in our accounting and finance organization. As of December 31, 2006, we lacked a sufficient complement of personnel in our accounting and finance organization, which resulted in our not maintaining effective controls over the financial statement close and reporting process. During the third quarter of 2007, we hired a corporate controller, a controller for our |
34
Table of Contents
Canadian operations, and a controller for our European operations. We also hired additional employees in the accounting and finance organization to assist with the financial statement close process, including the preparation and review of certain account reconciliations. These additional personnel enabled us to strengthen our internal controls over the financial statement close and reporting process.
• | Accounting for unbilled accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of unbilled accounts receivable. During 2007, we created a process to calculate, report and analyze the unbilled accounts receivable on a regular basis. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2007 we documented a formal revenue recognition policy clearly stating when revenue is recognized and communicated this policy to key accounting personnel. Although management continues to refine the process to improve efficiency in calculating the unbilled accounts receivable, a consistent process with improved analysis and review controls has been implemented and was operating effectively during third quarter of 2007. |
• | Accounting for work in process inventory. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of work in process inventory. During 2007, we created a process to calculate, report and analyze the work in process inventory on a regular basis. Although management continues to refine the process to improve efficiency in calculating the work in process inventory, a consistent process with improved analysis and review controls has been implemented and was operating effectively during the third quarter of 2007. |
• | Accounting for contract revenue. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls over the accuracy of revenues earned under contracts with non-standard terms and conditions. Beginning in the first quarter of 2007, we established and communicated to appropriate individuals a policy that requires that all customer contracts must be approved by legal counsel prior to signing. This enables us to better track non-standard terms and conditions. We also improved the coordination between the finance department and legal counsel to ensure non-standard terms and conditions receive appropriate accounting treatment. These procedures remained in effect during the second and third quarters of 2007. |
• | Accounting for property, plant and equipment. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of our property, plant and equipment. We installed a new fixed asset system in the fourth quarter of 2006, which was fully updated and operational during the first quarter of 2007. This fixed asset system enables us to ensure that property, plant and equipment assets are properly monitored and depreciated in accordance with our fixed asset policy. We also implemented additional controls during the first quarter of 2007 concerning the preparation and review of reconciliations over the fixed asset accounting process during the monthly closing process. These procedures remained in effect during the second and third quarters of 2007. |
• | Accounting for intangible assets. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls to accurately and completely record amortization of acquired intangibles. Beginning in the first quarter of 2007, we established and communicated to appropriate individuals a policy that requires that all useful lives for all newly acquired intangible assets are to be reviewed for consistency with the established policy in accordance with GAAP. These procedures remained in effect during the second and third quarters of 2007. |
• | Accounting for accrued and other expenses. As of December 31, 2006, we did not maintain effective controls to ensure the completeness and accuracy of certain of our accrued liabilities, accounts payable and related expense accounts. We hired additional personnel during 2006 and the first quarter of 2007 to improve the handling of cut-off for purchases and expenditures. We also provided additional training and communication in this area during the first quarter of 2007. These procedures remained in effect during the second and third quarters of 2007. |
As described above, there were changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the nine months and quarter ended

September 30, 2007 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
OTHER INFORMATION
Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against entities within the Company. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on currently available facts and in light of legal and other defenses available to us, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors included in the Registrant’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
