Business Overview | Business Overview |
For more than 25 years, DLH Holdings Corp. ("DLH"), has provided professional services to the U.S. Government. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, DLH employs over 1,200 skilled technicians, logisticians, engineers, healthcare and support personnel at more than 25 locations around the United States. DLH’s operating subsidiary, DLH Solutions, Inc., is organized into two broad integrated revenue streams: Healthcare Delivery Solutions and Logistics & Technical Services. Our customers, a majority of whom are within the Departments of Defense ("DoD") and Veterans Affairs ("DVA"), benefit from proven business process management processes, technical excellence and differentiation, and cost management. The remaining portion of DLH's business is comprised of customers within the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Departments of Justice, Agriculture, Interior and Federal Emergency Management Agency, at locations throughout the United States. | |
DLH Holdings Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, "DLH" or the "Company" and also referred to as "we," "us" and "our") manages its operations from its principal executive offices at 1776 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30309. | |
Presently, the Company derives all of its revenue from agencies of the Federal government. A major customer is defined as a customer from whom the Company derives at least 10% of its revenues. In each of the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, revenue from the U.S. Government accounted, either directly or indirectly, for 100% of the Company’s total revenue. Within the U.S. Government, our largest customer continues to be the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA), at 96% and 97% of revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, substantially all accounts receivable, including unbilled accounts receivable, are from agencies of the U.S. Government as of March 31, 2015 and 2014. We believe that the credit risk associated with our receivables is limited due to the creditworthiness of these customers. See Note 5, Supporting Financial Information-Accounts Receivable. | |
DLH remains dependent upon the continuation of its relationship with the DVA. As of March 31, 2015, awards from the DVA have anticipated periods of performance ranging from approximately two to up to four years. These agreements are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations. While there can be no assurance as to the actual amount of services that the Company will ultimately provide to the DVA under its current contracts, we believe that our strong working relationship and our effective service delivery support ongoing performance for the contract term. The Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial condition would be materially adversely affected in the event that we were unable to continue our relationship with the DVA. |

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, this guidance expands related disclosure requirements. The effective date of these revisions is for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application not permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance. | |
In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance related to accounting for share-based payments for certain performance stock awards. The effective date of this guidance is for annual periods and interim periods within those periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance. | |
In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance regarding management's going concern evaluations. The guidance requires management to evaluate, at each interim and annual reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and provide related disclosures. The guidance is effective for all entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, and early adoption is permitted. We do not believe the standard will have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures. |

Ref (a): As previously reported, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, DLH Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) accrued salaries and benefits of $10.1 million related to the estimated resolution of retroactive payment cases asserted by the Department of Labor (“DOL”). During the same period, the Company recognized revenues of $10.8 million related to expected recovery of these costs, plus estimated indirect costs, under contractual arrangements with the Department of Veterans Affairs (“DVA”). At September 30, 2014, the amount of the remaining accounts receivable with the DVA approximated $9.3 million and accrued liabilities for salaries to employees and related benefits totaled $8.7 million. The $9.3 million in accounts receivable was unbilled to the DVA at September 30, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||
In September 2014, we submitted a claim to the DVA seeking a final determination and resolution of this matter. During the current quarter, we were advised that the DOL would not take further action with respect to the retroactive payment cases and that it would not object to the DVA’s resolution of this matter with the Company. As a result, we will not have any obligation for the payment of these accrued salaries and benefits. Because no retroactive wage payments will be required, we will not have any contractual recovery of costs from the DVA. Accordingly, in order to resolve this matter, on March 30, 2015, we entered into a mutual release of claims with the DVA, pursuant to which both parties agreed to fully release each other from any and all claims arising pursuant to this matter. | ||||||||||||||||||
As a result of the closure of this issue, as a part of our reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we have removed the accruals of estimated revenue and expense which were recorded in the year ended September 30, 2008. Further, we are reporting a reduction of $9.3 million in accounts receivable, a reduction of $8.7 million in accrued liabilities for salaries to employees and related benefits, and a net charge to our earnings of approximately $629 thousand the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015 relating to the resolution of this matter. The net expense related to this issue is non-cash and not related to income from current operations. | ||||||||||||||||||
Ref (b): Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing, unsecured and carried at fair value, which is net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Liquidity | Liquidity |
At March 31, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.2 million, net working capital of approximately $0.9 million, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $(62) million. For the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company realized operating income of approximately $774 thousand and net income of approximately $52 thousand, as compared to operating income and net income of $291 thousand and $330 thousand respectively for the six months ended March 31, 2014. | |
The Company has a credit facility with a lending institution which provides a maximum amount of $6 million. The current term of the credit facility expires on July 29, 2015 and thereafter shall automatically renew on each anniversary date thereof for subsequent twelve month terms unless terminated by either party. Presently, the maximum availability under this loan facility is $3 million, subject to eligible accounts receivable. The interest rate on both the Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Accounts portion of the loan was 4.0% at March 31, 2015, and September 30, 2014. At March 31, 2015, our unused loan availability was approximately $2.6 million, comprised of a $1.4 million letter of credit reserve and $1.2 million of unused loan capacity. DLH required no borrowing on the credit facility during second quarter ended March 31, 2015. | |
Management believes, at present, that: (a) cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.2 million as of March 31, 2015; (b) the amount available under its line of credit (which is limited to the amount of eligible assets); and (c) planned operating cash flow should be sufficient to support the Company's operations for twelve months from the date of these financial statements. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Significant Accounting Policies |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation of goodwill, expected settlement amounts of accounts receivable, valuation allowances established against accounts receivable and deferred tax assets, and measurement of loss development on workers’ compensation claims. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In particular, a material reduction in the fair value of goodwill would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. | |
Revenue Recognition | |
DLH’s revenue is derived from professional and other specialized service offerings to US Government agencies through a variety of contracts, some of which are fixed-price in nature and/or sourced through Federal Supply Schedules administered by the General Services Administration (“GSA”) at fixed unit rates or hourly arrangements. We generally operate as a prime contractor, but have also entered into contracts as a subcontractor. The recognition of revenue from fixed rates is based upon objective criteria that generally do not require significant estimates that may change over time. DLH recognizes and records revenue on government contracts when it is realized, or realizable, and earned. DLH considers these requirements met when: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (b) the services have been delivered to the customer; (c) the sales price is fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or significant uncertainties; and (d) collectibility is reasonably assured. | |
Goodwill | |
DLH continues to review its goodwill for possible impairment or loss of value at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that a reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than its fair value. At September 30, 2014, we performed a goodwill impairment evaluation. We performed both a qualitative and quantitative assessment of factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the work performed, the Company has concluded that no impairment loss was warranted at September 30, 2014. Factors including non-renewal of a major contract or other substantial changes in business conditions could have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill in future periods and the resulting charge could be material to future periods’ results of operations. For the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company determined that no change in business conditions occurred which would have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill. If an impairment write off of all the goodwill became necessary in future periods, a charge of up to $8.6 million would be expensed in the Consolidated Statement of Income. All remaining goodwill is attributable to the DLH Solutions operating subsidiary. | |
Income Taxes | |
DLH accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reflected on the consolidated balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized. This guidance also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We account for uncertain tax positions by recognizing the financial statement effects of a tax position only when, based upon the technical merits, it is "more-likely-than-not" that the position will be sustained upon examination. We had no uncertain tax positions at either March 31, 2015 and 2014. We report interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. In the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized no interest and no penalties related to income taxes. | |
The Company has adequate net operating loss carryforwards to offset against any taxable income in the current period. The Company has deferred tax assets before valuation allowance of $15.7 million and $15.7 million as of March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $11.1 million as of March 31, 2015 and $11.1 million on September 30, 2014. Tax years open for examination are 2011 and forward. | |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. Deposits held with financial institutions may exceed the $250,000 limit. |

On September 18, 2013, the Company announced that our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the Program) under which we could repurchase up to $350 thousand of shares of our common stock through open market transactions in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18, privately negotiated transactions, or other means. This repurchase program does not have an expiration date. | ||||||||||||||||||||
During fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company repurchased a total of 76,600 shares of its common stock pursuant to a trading plan entered into by the Company in September 2013. As of March 31, 2015 there is a total of $85 thousand remaining for repurchases under the program. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Convertible Debentures Financing | ||||||||||||||||||||
As has been previously disclosed, certain entities affiliated with Wynnefield Capital, Inc., the Company’s largest stockholder, owned convertible debentures in an aggregate principal amount of $350,000 and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 53,846 shares of common stock. These instruments were issued pursuant to a debenture purchase agreement in June 2011. The warrants were exercisable at a price of $0.96 until June 2016 and the conversion rate of the convertible debentures was $1.25. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Upon maturity on October 28, 2013, the principal amount of $210,000 of convertible debentures was converted into 168,000 shares of common stock and the principal amount of $140,000 on the remaining debenture was repaid in full. In addition, in October 2013, the holders of the Warrants exercised such Warrants in full for 53,846 shares of common stock. A gain of $119 thousand was recognized, which represented the change in the fair value of the derivative immediately prior to conversion. Additionally, expense of $20 thousand was recorded in the three months ended December 31, 2013, related to fair valuation of the warrants. The accrued liability of $61 thousand with respect to the fair value of the warrants was reflected as additional paid in capital upon their exercise. The shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon conversion of the debentures were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon exercise of the warrants were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |

Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events: |
On April 6, 2015, the National Labor Relations Board affirmed the October 2014 election process in which employees at our Chicago location adopted union representation for non-management employees. The certification of the union and collective bargaining have not yet occurred but are expected to occur shortly. Management does not expect this event to materially impact results of operations in the future. | |
On April 27, 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement (the “Lease”) with Piedmont Center, 1-4 LLC (the “Landlord”) for the premises known as Suite 700 at Three Piedmont Center, 3565 Piedmont Road, N.E. Atlanta, Georgia 30305. The rentable floor area of the demised premises is 12,275 square feet. The Lease expires 8.7 years following the “Rental Commencement Date”. The Rental Commencement Date will occur when the Landlord has substantially completed the build-out of the demised premises, including any tenant improvements. The Company currently expects the Rent Commencement Date to occur, and occupation of the demised premises to begin, during August 2015. | |
The Company will pay monthly base rental payments for the demised premises in the amount of $251,637.50 per annum (or $20,969.79 per month) during the first year of the lease. The base rent due under the Lease shall increase yearly based on an agreed-upon annual rate of increase and in the final year of the Lease, the monthly base rental payment will be $306,629.50 per annum (or $25,552.46 per month). | |
Provided that the Company complies with its obligations under the Lease, the Landlord will excuse a total $265,209.99 in rent due during the initial two (2) years of the Lease term. The monthly rent payments under the Lease include estimated operating expenses and real estate taxes, as such terms are defined in the Lease. However, the Company will make an additional payment each year if actual operating expenses exceed the Landlord’s estimate. | |
The Company has a right, at its option and subject to the terms of the Lease, to extend the term of the Lease for one (1) five year period at a market rate. In addition, the Landlord has agreed to provide the Company with a right of first refusal to lease additional space if the Landlord desires to lease a portion of certain adjacent premises. | |
On April 29, 2015, the Company entered into an extension agreement (the “Extension”) with Zachary C. Parker, its Chief Executive Officer and President, which provides for a 1 year extension of the term of his current employment agreement. Pursuant to the Extension, the Company and Mr. Parker agreed to extend the term of his current employment agreement from September 30, 2015 to the new expiration date of September 30, 2016. Pursuant to the Extension, and as contemplated by the Company’s current employment agreement with Mr. Parker, the Company agreed to pay a $50,000 cash bonus to Mr. Parker. Other than as modified by the Extension, the provisions of Mr. Parker’s current employment agreement remain in full force and effect. | |
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the Company's financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, the Company has determined that no other subsequent events have occurred which require disclosure through the date that these financial statements were issued. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation of goodwill, expected settlement amounts of accounts receivable, valuation allowances established against accounts receivable and deferred tax assets, and measurement of loss development on workers’ compensation claims. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In particular, a material reduction in the fair value of goodwill would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. | |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition |
DLH’s revenue is derived from professional and other specialized service offerings to US Government agencies through a variety of contracts, some of which are fixed-price in nature and/or sourced through Federal Supply Schedules administered by the General Services Administration (“GSA”) at fixed unit rates or hourly arrangements. We generally operate as a prime contractor, but have also entered into contracts as a subcontractor. The recognition of revenue from fixed rates is based upon objective criteria that generally do not require significant estimates that may change over time. DLH recognizes and records revenue on government contracts when it is realized, or realizable, and earned. DLH considers these requirements met when: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (b) the services have been delivered to the customer; (c) the sales price is fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or significant uncertainties; and (d) collectibility is reasonably assured. | |
Goodwill | Goodwill |
DLH continues to review its goodwill for possible impairment or loss of value at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that a reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than its fair value. At September 30, 2014, we performed a goodwill impairment evaluation. We performed both a qualitative and quantitative assessment of factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the work performed, the Company has concluded that no impairment loss was warranted at September 30, 2014. Factors including non-renewal of a major contract or other substantial changes in business conditions could have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill in future periods and the resulting charge could be material to future periods’ results of operations. For the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company determined that no change in business conditions occurred which would have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill. If an impairment write off of all the goodwill became necessary in future periods, a charge of up to $8.6 million would be expensed in the Consolidated Statement of Income. All remaining goodwill is attributable to the DLH Solutions operating subsidiary. | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes |
DLH accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reflected on the consolidated balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized. This guidance also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We account for uncertain tax positions by recognizing the financial statement effects of a tax position only when, based upon the technical merits, it is "more-likely-than-not" that the position will be sustained upon examination. We had no uncertain tax positions at either March 31, 2015 and 2014. We report interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. In the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized no interest and no penalties related to income taxes. | |
The Company has adequate net operating loss carryforwards to offset against any taxable income in the current period. The Company has deferred tax assets before valuation allowance of $15.7 million and $15.7 million as of March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $11.1 million as of March 31, 2015 and $11.1 million on September 30, 2014. Tax years open for examination are 2011 and forward. | |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. Deposits held with financial institutions may exceed the $250,000 limit. |

Ref (a): As previously reported, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, DLH Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) accrued salaries and benefits of $10.1 million related to the estimated resolution of retroactive payment cases asserted by the Department of Labor (“DOL”). During the same period, the Company recognized revenues of $10.8 million related to expected recovery of these costs, plus estimated indirect costs, under contractual arrangements with the Department of Veterans Affairs (“DVA”). At September 30, 2014, the amount of the remaining accounts receivable with the DVA approximated $9.3 million and accrued liabilities for salaries to employees and related benefits totaled $8.7 million. The $9.3 million in accounts receivable was unbilled to the DVA at September 30, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||
In September 2014, we submitted a claim to the DVA seeking a final determination and resolution of this matter. During the current quarter, we were advised that the DOL would not take further action with respect to the retroactive payment cases and that it would not object to the DVA’s resolution of this matter with the Company. As a result, we will not have any obligation for the payment of these accrued salaries and benefits. Because no retroactive wage payments will be required, we will not have any contractual recovery of costs from the DVA. Accordingly, in order to resolve this matter, on March 30, 2015, we entered into a mutual release of claims with the DVA, pursuant to which both parties agreed to fully release each other from any and all claims arising pursuant to this matter. | ||||||||||||||||||
As a result of the closure of this issue, as a part of our reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we have removed the accruals of estimated revenue and expense which were recorded in the year ended September 30, 2008. Further, we are reporting a reduction of $9.3 million in accounts receivable, a reduction of $8.7 million in accrued liabilities for salaries to employees and related benefits, and a net charge to our earnings of approximately $629 thousand the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015 relating to the resolution of this matter. The net expense related to this issue is non-cash and not related to income from current operations. | ||||||||||||||||||
Ref (b): Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing, unsecured and carried at fair value, which is net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
