QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2005
EXPLANATORY NOTE
As
a result of significant delays in completing our Consolidated
Financial Statements for the
year ended December 31, 2004 (fiscal 2004), we were unable to timely file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the SEC) this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
2005 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and September 30,
2005. In addition, we were unable to timely file with the SEC our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q
for the quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006. We filed our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2004 on January 31, 2006 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 (fiscal 2005) on November 22, 2006.
Due to the delay of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the significant
changes to our business in the interim, certain information presented herein relates to events that
occurred subsequent to March 31, 2005. For additional information regarding the Company, our business, operations, risks and results,
please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2005, filed with the SEC on November 22, 2006, and Current Reports on

Contemporaneous with the filing with the SEC of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2005, we are filing our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters
ended June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005.

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Liquidity
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of
BearingPoint, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
SEC for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. These statements do not include all of the information and
Note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, and should be read in conjunction with the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 2005, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K
and filed with the SEC on November 22, 2006 (the 2005 Form 10-K). The accompanying Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect adjustments (consisting solely of
normal, recurring adjustments, except as noted below) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. The results of operations
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year.
The interim Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements reflect the operations of the Company
and all of its majority-owned subsidiaries. Upon consolidation, all significant intercompany
accounts and transactions are eliminated. Prior to 2004, certain of the Companys consolidated
foreign subsidiaries within the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), Asia Pacific and Latin
America regions reported their results on a one-month lag, which allowed additional time to compile
results. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company recorded a change in accounting principle
resulting from certain Asia Pacific and EMEA regions now reporting on a current period basis. The
purpose of the change is to have these certain foreign subsidiaries report on a basis that is
consistent with the Companys fiscal reporting period. As a result, net loss for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 includes a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of $529,
which represents the December 2003 loss for these entities. This amount is included in other income
(expense), net in the interim Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 due to the immateriality of the effect of the change in accounting principle
to consolidated net loss. Certain of the Companys consolidated foreign subsidiaries within EMEA
continue to report their results of operations on a one-month lag.
During 2005, the Company identified certain errors in its previously reported financial
statements. Because these changes are not material to the Companys financial statements for the
periods prior to 2005 or to 2005 taken as a whole, the Company corrected these errors in the first
quarter of 2005. These adjustments included entries to correct errors in accounting for revenue,
certain foreign tax withholdings, income taxes, and other miscellaneous items. Had these errors
been recorded in the proper periods, the impact of the adjustments on the first quarter of 2005
would have been an increase to revenue and gross profit of $726 and $4,927, respectively, and a
decrease to net loss of $15,445.
Liquidity
The interim Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of the Company are prepared on a going
concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable
future and will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of
business. The Company has recently experienced a number of factors that have negatively impacted
its liquidity, including the following:
|
|
|
The Company has experienced significant recurring net losses. At March 31,
2005, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $995,114. |
|
|
|
|
The Companys business has not generated positive cash from operating
activities in some recent periods during fiscal 2005 and 2004. |
|
|
|
|
Due to the material weaknesses in its internal controls, the Company continues
to experience significant delays in completing its consolidated financial
statements and filing periodic reports with the SEC on a timely basis.
Accordingly, the Company continues to devote substantial additional internal and
external resources, and experience higher than expected fees for audit services. |
|
|
|
|
In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company incurred losses of $113,257
under a significant contract with Hawaiian Telcom Communications, Inc.,
which consequently will result in significantly less cash from operating
activities in future years. |

|
|
The Company currently is a party to a number of disputes which involve or may
involve litigation or other legal or regulatory proceedings. See Note 10,
Commitments and Contingencies. |
The Company is currently engaged in a number of activities, intended to further improve its
cash balances and their accessibility, if current internal estimates
for cash uses for fiscal 2007 prove incorrect. These activities include: increased focus on reducing its days sales outstanding; review and reconsideration of proposed capital expenditure budgets; reviewing its
offshore capabilities and operations to increase efficiency and to reduce redundancies in its
workforce; and extensive reviews of its borrowing base calculations to ascertain whether the
Company is receiving full credit for all available cash and receivables. Furthermore, in fiscal
2007, the Company expects the significant investments it has made, or will make, in fiscal years
2006 and 2007 with respect to its financial reporting and processes, to begin to significantly
reduce the cash required to operate its financial reporting and processes.
Based on the foregoing and its current state of knowledge of the outlook for its business, the
Company currently believes that cash provided from operations, existing cash balances and available
borrowings under its 2005 Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet its working capital needs
through the end of fiscal 2007. The Company also believes that it will continue to have sufficient
access to the capital markets to make up any deficiencies if cash provided from operations and
existing cash balances are insufficient during this period of time. However, actual results may
differ from current expectations for many reasons, including losses of business that could result
from the Companys continuing failure to timely file periodic reports with the SEC, the Companys
lenders under the senior credit facility ceasing to grant extensions to file periodic reports,
possible delisting from the New York Stock Exchange, further downgrades of its credit ratings or
unexpected demands on its current cash resources (e.g., to settle lawsuits).
Note 2. Stock-Based Compensation and Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company has several stock-based employee compensation plans. Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS
123), defined a fair value method of accounting for stock options and other equity instruments.
As provided for in SFAS 123, the Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards issued to
employees by applying the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), whereby the difference
between the quoted market price as of the date of grant and the contractual purchase price of the
award is charged to operations over the vesting period. The Company granted both service-based and
performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs) and stock options during 2005. For the
service-based RSUs and stock options, the fair value is fixed on the date of grant based on the
number of RSUs or stock options issued and the fair value of the Companys stock on the date of
grant. For the performance-based RSUs and stock options, the fair value is estimated on the date
the performance conditions are established based on the fair value of the Companys stock and the
Companys estimate of the number of RSUs or stock options that will ultimately be issued. The
performance-based RSUs and stock options are marked to market from the date it is probable that the
performance conditions will be achieved. With respect to RSUs, stock options granted where the
exercise price is below the market price on the date of grant, and other awards granted prior to
December 31, 2005, compensation expense is measured based on the
intrinsic value of such awards and charged to expense using the straight-line method over the period of restriction or vesting period.
Pro forma information regarding net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share is required
assuming the Company had accounted for its stock-based awards issued to employees under the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, whereby stock options and other awards are valued at the
grant date using an option pricing model, and compensation is amortized as a charge to earnings
over the awards vesting period. The weighted average fair value of stock options granted during
the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were $4.74 and $6.33, respectively. The fair value
of options granted was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted average assumptions:

The fair value of the Companys common stock purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase
Plan, as amended (the ESPP), was estimated for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and an expected volatility ranging between 30.4% and
70.0%, risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.03% to 3.29%, an

expected life ranging from 6 to 24 months and an expected dividend yield of zero. The weighted
average fair value of share purchase rights under the ESPP was $3.21 and $3.36 for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123
(revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25.
SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values beginning with the
first reporting period following the fiscal year that begins on or after June 15, 2005. The pro
forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial
statement recognition. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 123R in the first quarter of fiscal
2006, beginning January 1, 2006. Under SFAS 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair
value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation
cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include
modified prospective and modified retroactive adoption options. Under the modified retroactive
option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all
periods presented. The modified prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded
for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of
adoption of SFAS 123R, while the modified retroactive method would record compensation expense for
all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. In March
2005, Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107), was issued
regarding the SECs interpretation of SFAS 123R and the valuation of share-based payments for
public companies. The Company currently utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate
fair value for the above pro forma calculations and will continue using the same methodology in the
foreseeable future. The Company will use the modified prospective method for adoption of SFAS
123R, and management believes that the incremental compensation cost to be recognized as a result
of the adoption of SFAS 123R and SAB 107 for fiscal 2006 will range from $22,000 to $28,000.
On March 25, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors approved the
issuance of up to an aggregate of $165,000 in RSUs under the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the LTIP)
to the Companys current managing directors (MDs) and a limited number of key employees, and
delegated to the Companys officers the authority to grant these awards. Certain RSU awards under
this authorization were made in three tranches of grants representing 30%, 30%, and 40% of the
total RSU award for each employee. Additional awards were also made at various grant dates as
determined by the Companys Chief Executive Officer. During the three months ended March 31, 2005,
the Company granted 750,000 RSU awards with a grant date weighted average fair value of $8.77.
Total compensation expense recorded as a result of these awards was $26 in the three months ended
March 31, 2005. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had 750,000 RSUs outstanding with a grant date
weighted average fair value of $8.77 and remaining deferred compensation of $6,552, which will be
amortized in accordance with the respective employees vesting schedule, subject to the application
of SFAS 123R in 2006.
On December 14, 2006, the Company amended its LTIP, including the elimination of the current
formula used to determine the number of shares available for issuance under the LTIP, along with an
increase to the number of shares
6
BearingPoint, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
available for issuance under the LTIP by 25 million additional
shares. Previously, the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the LTIP
was determined by a formula. The formula provided that the number of shares of common stock
authorized for issuance under the LTIP is equal to the greater of (i) 35,084,158 shares of common
stock and (ii) 25% of the sum of (x) the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Companys common
stock and (y) the authorized shares. The amendment to the LTIP eliminated this formulaic
determination of the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the LTIP and
replaced this formula with the specified number of authorized shares of 92,179,333, an
aggregate increase of 25 million shares available for awards under the Plan (measured as of
November 1, 2006).
In connection with the acquisition of various Andersen Business Consulting practices, the
Company committed to the issuance of approximately 3,000,000 shares of common stock (net of
forfeitures) to former partners of those practices as a retentive measure. The stock awards have no
purchase price and are issued as to one-third of the shares on the first three anniversaries of the
acquisition of the relevant consulting practice, so long as the recipient remains employed by the
Company. Compensation expense was recorded ratably over the three-year service period beginning in
July 2002. Compensation expense was $1,686, and $1,987 for the three months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004, respectively. As of March 31, 2005, 2,100,998 shares of common stock have been issued.
During the third quarter of 2005, $4,929 was paid in cash in lieu of the third and final
installment of the stock award in fulfillment of the Companys obligations under this commitment,
which was recorded as a reduction of additional paid in capital.
The Companys ESPP was adopted on October 12, 2000 and allows eligible employees to purchase
shares of the Companys common stock at a discount, through accumulated payroll deductions of 1% to
15% of their compensation, up to a maximum of $25. Under the ESPP, shares of the Companys common
stock are purchased at 85% of the lesser of the fair market value at the beginning of the 24-month
offering period, or the fair market value at the end of each 6-month purchase period ending on July
31 and January 31, respectively. The ESPP became effective on February 8, 2001. In 2005, the Board
of Directors also approved the removal of the 24-month look-back, resulting in straight 6-month
offering periods, where the purchase price will be 15% off the closing price on the last day of the
6-month purchase period. Current participants are grandfathered (protected) from this change
through January 31, 2007, provided they maintain continued enrollment. These Plan changes will be
effective for all new enrollees beginning with the next open enrollment cycle. During the three
months ended March 31, 2005, the Companys employees purchased an aggregate of 2,053,154 shares for
an aggregate amount of $13,769.
Because the Company is not current in its SEC filings, it is unable to issue freely tradable
shares of its common stock. Consequently, the Company has not issued shares under the ESPP since
January 2005 and significant features of many of the Companys employee equity plans remain
suspended. If the Company is unable to become current in its SEC filings by April 30, 2007, the
purchase price discount the Company will be able to offer pursuant to applicable provisions of the
U.S. Internal Revenue Code could be substantially reduced. If the purchase price of the Companys
common stock purchased under the ESPP changes to 85% of the fair market value of the common stock
on the date of purchase, increases in the Companys stock price above current levels could result
in increased withdrawal rates to levels higher than those the Company has historically experienced.
The Company currently does not anticipate becoming current in its SEC filings by April 30, 2007.
Employee contributions to the ESPP held by the Company were approximately $4,377 at March 31, 2005.
These amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents and are repayable on demand.

Series A and Series B Convertible Subordinated Debentures
On December 22, 2004, the Company completed a $400,000 offering of Convertible Subordinated
Debentures. The offering consisted of $225,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.50% Series A
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due December 15, 2024 (the Series A Debentures) and $175,000
aggregate principal amount of 2.75% Series B Convertible Subordinated Debentures due December 15,
2024 (the Series B Debentures and together with the Series A Debentures, the Subordinated
Debentures). On January 5, 2005, the Company issued an additional $25,000 aggregate principal
amount of its Series A Debentures and an additional $25,000 aggregate principal amount of its
Series B Debentures upon the exercise in full of the option granted to the initial purchasers.
Interest is payable on the Subordinated Debentures on June 15 and December 15 of each year,
beginning June 15, 2005. The Subordinated Debentures are unsecured and are subordinated to the
Companys existing and future senior debt. Due to the delay in the completion of the Companys
audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the Company was unable to
file a timely registration statement with the SEC to register for resale its Subordinated
Debentures and underlying common stock. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms of these securities, the
applicable interest rate on each series of Subordinated Debentures increased by 0.25% beginning on
March 23, 2005 and increased another 0.25% beginning on June 22, 2005. These changes together
increased the interest rate on the Series A Debentures and the Series B Debentures to 3.00% and
3.25%, respectively, and such increased interest rates will be the applicable interest rates until
the date the registration statement is declared effective.
The net proceeds from the sale of the Subordinated Debentures were approximately
$435,600, after deducting offering expenses and the initial purchasers commissions of $11,400 and
other fees and expenses of approximately $3,000. The Company used approximately $240,590 of the net
proceeds from the sale of the Subordinated Debentures to repay its outstanding $220,000 Senior
Notes and approximately $135,000 to repay amounts outstanding under its then existing revolving
credit facility. The Company also used the proceeds to pay fees and expenses in connection with
entering into the $400,000 Interim Senior Secured Credit Facility, as defined below.
The Subordinated Debentures are initially convertible, under certain circumstances, into
shares of the Companys common stock at a conversion rate of 95.2408 shares for each $1 principal
amount of the Subordinated Debentures, subject to anti-dilution and adjustments but not to exceed
129.0 shares, equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $10.50 per share. Holders of
the Subordinated Debentures may exercise the right to convert the Subordinated Debentures prior to
their maturity only under certain circumstances, including when the Companys stock price reaches a
specified level for a specified period of time, upon notice of redemption, and upon specified
corporate transactions. Upon conversion of the Subordinated Debentures, the Company will have the
right to deliver, in lieu of shares of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of
common stock. The Subordinated Debentures will be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate
upon the occurrence of certain change of control transactions or, in lieu of the increase, at the
Companys
8

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
election, in certain circumstances, to an adjustment in the conversion rate and related
conversion obligation so that the Subordinated Debentures are convertible into shares of the
acquiring or surviving company. The Company will also increase the conversion rate upon occurrence
of certain transactions. As of March 31, 2005, none of the circumstances under which the
Subordinated Debentures are convertible existed.
On December 15, 2011, December 15, 2014 and December 15, 2019, holders of Series A
Debentures, at their option, have the right to require the Company to repurchase any outstanding
Series A Debentures. On December 15, 2014 and December 15, 2019, holders of Series B Debentures, at
their option, have the right to require the Company to repurchase any outstanding Series B
Debentures. In each case, the Company will pay a repurchase price in cash equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including
liquidated damages, if any, to the repurchase date. In addition, holders of the Subordinated
Debentures may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Subordinated Debentures on
the occurrence of a designated event, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Subordinated Debentures, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if
any, to, but not including, the repurchase date. A designated event includes certain change of
control transactions and a termination of trading, occurring if the Companys common stock is no
longer listed for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange.
The Company may redeem some or all of the Series A Debentures beginning on December 23,
2011 and, beginning on December 23, 2014, may redeem the Series B Debentures, in each case at a
redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest and
liquidated damages, if any, on the Subordinated Debentures to, but not including, the redemption
date.
Upon a continuing event of default, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures may declare the applicable series of
Debentures immediately due and payable, which could lead to cross-defaults and possible
acceleration of unpaid principal and accrued interest of the April 2005 Senior Debentures, July
2005 Senior Debentures and the 2005 Credit Facility, all defined below.
On September 8, 2005, certain holders of the Series B Debentures provided a purported Notice
of Default to the Company based upon its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2004 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31,
2005 and June 30, 2005. On or about November 17, 2005, the Company received a notice from these
holders of the Series B Debentures, asserting that an event of default had occurred and was
continuing under the indenture for the Series B Debentures and, as a result, the principal amount
of the Series B Debentures, accrued and unpaid interest and unpaid damages were due and payable
immediately.
Based on the foregoing, the indenture trustee for the Series B Debentures brought suit against
the Company and, on September 19, 2006, the Supreme Court of New York ruled that the Company was in
default under the indenture for the Series B Debentures and ordered that the amount of damages to
be determined subsequently at trial. The Company believed the ruling to be in error and on
September 25, 2006, appealed the courts ruling and moved for summary judgment on the matter of
determination of damages.
After further negotiations, on November 7, 2006, the Company and the relevant holders of
its Series B Debentures filed a stipulation to discontinue the lawsuit. Concurrent with the
agreement to discontinue the lawsuit, the Company entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the
First Supplemental Indenture) with The Bank of New York, as trustee, which amends the
subordinated indenture governing the Series A Debentures and the Series B Debentures. The First Supplemental Indenture
includes a waiver of the Companys SEC reporting requirements under the subordinated indenture
through October 31, 2008. Pursuant to the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture, effective as
of November 7, 2006: (i) the interest rate payable on the Series A Debentures will increase from
3.00% per annum to 3.10% per annum (inclusive of any liquidated damages relating to the failure to
file a registration statement for the Series A Debentures that may be payable) until December 23,
2011, and (ii) the interest rate payable on the Series B Debentures will increase from 3.25% per
annum to 4.10% per annum (inclusive of any liquidated damages relating to the failure to file a
registration statement for the Series B Debentures that may be payable) until December 23, 2014.
The increased interest rates apply to all Series A Debentures and Series B Debentures outstanding.
April 2005 Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures
On April 27, 2005, the Company issued $200,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.00%
Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due April 15, 2025 (the April 2005 Senior Debentures).
Interest is payable on the April 2005 Senior Debentures on April 15 and October 15 of each year,
beginning October 15, 2005. The April 2005 Senior Debentures are unsecured and are subordinated to
the Companys existing and future senior debt. The April 2005 Senior Debentures are

senior to the
Subordinated Debentures. Since the Company failed to file a registration statement with the SEC
to register for resale of its April 2005 Senior Debentures and the underlying common stock by
December 31, 2005, the interest rate on the April 2005 Senior Debentures increased by 0.25% to
5.25% beginning on January 1, 2006 and will continue to be the applicable interest rate through the
date the registration statement is filed.
The net proceeds from the sale of the April 2005 Senior Debentures, after deducting
offering expenses and the placement agents commissions and other fees and expenses, were
approximately $192,800. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to replace the working
capital that was at the time used to cash collateralize letters of credit under the 2004 Interim
Credit Facility (see below).
The April 2005 Senior Debentures are initially convertible into shares of the Companys
common stock at a conversion rate of 151.5151 shares for each $1 principal amount of the April 2005
Senior Debentures, subject to anti-dilution and adjustments, equal to an initial conversion price
of $6.60 per share at any time prior to the stated maturity. Upon conversion of the April 2005
Senior Debentures, the Company will have the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of common stock,
cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. The April 2005 Senior Debentures will be
entitled to an increase in the conversion rate upon the occurrence of certain change of control
transactions or, in lieu of the increase, at the Companys election, in certain circumstances, to
an adjustment in the conversion rate and related conversion obligation so that the April 2005
Senior Debentures are convertible into shares of the acquiring or surviving company.
The holders of the April 2005 Senior Debentures have the right, at their option, to
require the Company to repurchase all or some of their debentures on April 15, 2009, 2013, 2015 and
2020. In each case, the Company will pay a repurchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the April 2005 Senior Debentures, plus any accrued but unpaid interest, including
additional interest, if any, to the repurchase date. In addition, holders of the April 2005 Senior
Debentures may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the April 2005 Senior
Debentures on the occurrence of a designated event, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the April 2005 Senior Debentures, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and
additional interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date. A designated event
includes certain change of control transactions and a termination of trading, occurring if the
Companys common stock is no longer listed for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange.
The April 2005 Senior Debentures will be redeemable at the Companys option on or after
April 15, 2009 at a redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the April
2005 Senior Debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, on the
April 2005 Senior Debentures to, but not including, the redemption date.
Upon a continuing event of default, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the April 2005 Senior Debentures may declare the applicable series of
Debentures immediately due and payable, which could lead to cross-defaults and possible
acceleration of unpaid principal and accrued interest of the Subordinated Debentures, July 2005
Senior Debentures (defined below) and the 2005 Credit Facility (defined below).
In connection with the Series B lawsuit described above, on November 2, 2006, the Company
entered into a First Supplemental Indenture with The Bank of New York, as trustee, which amends the
indenture governing the April 2005 Senior Debentures. The supplemental indenture includes a waiver
of the Companys SEC reporting requirements through October 31, 2007, and provides for further
extension through October 31, 2008 upon the Companys payment of an additional fee of 0.25% of the
principal amount of the debentures. The Company paid to certain consenting holders of April 2005
Senior Debentures, who provided their consents prior to the expiration of the consent solicitation,
a consent fee equal to 1.00% of the outstanding principal amount of the April 2005 Senior
Debentures.
July 2005 Convertible Senior Debentures
On July 15, 2005, the Company issued $40,000 aggregate principal amount of its 0.50%
Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due July 2010 (the July 2005 Senior Debentures) and
common stock warrants (the July 2005 Warrants) to purchase up to 3,500,000 shares of the
Companys common stock. The July 2005 Senior Debentures bear interest at a rate of 0.50% per year
and will mature on July 15, 2010. Interest is payable on the July 2005 Senior Debentures on January
15 and July 15 of each year, beginning January 15, 2006. The July 2005 Senior Debentures are pari
passu to the April 2005 Senior Debentures and senior to the Subordinated Debentures. Since the
Company failed to file a registration statement with the SEC to register for resale its July 2005
Senior Debentures and the underlying common stock by December 31, 2005, the interest rate on the
July 2005 Senior Debentures increased by 0.25% to 0.75% beginning on January 1, 2006 and will
continue to be the applicable interest rate through the date the registration statement is filed.
The net proceeds from the sale of the July 2005 Senior Debentures and July 2005 Warrants,
after deducting offering expenses and other fees and expenses, were approximately $38,900.

In accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement, the holders of the July 2005 Senior
Debentures appointed a designated director to the Companys Board of Directors (with a term that
expires in 2007) effective July 15, 2005. If the designated director ceases to be affiliated with
the holders of the July 2005 Senior Debentures or ceases to serve on the Companys Board of
Directors, so long as the holders together hold at least 40% of the original principal amount of
the July 2005 Senior Debentures, the holders or their designees have the right to designate a
replacement director to the Companys Board of Directors.
The July 2005 Senior Debentures are initially convertible on or after July 15, 2006 into
shares of the Companys common stock at a conversion price of $6.75 per share, subject to
anti-dilution and other adjustments. Upon conversion of the July 2005 Senior Debentures, the
Company will have the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of common stock, cash or a combination of
both. The July 2005 Senior Debentures will be entitled, in certain change of control transactions,
to an adjustment in the conversion obligation so that the July 2005 Senior Debentures are
convertible into shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets receivable upon the
occurrence of such transaction by a holder of shares of the Companys common stock in such
transaction.
The holders of the July 2005 Senior Debentures may require the Company to repurchase all
or a portion of the July 2005 Senior Debentures on the occurrence of a designated event, at a
repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the July 2005 Senior Debentures, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and additional
interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date. The list of designated events
includes certain change of control transactions and a termination of trading occurring if the
Companys common stock is no longer listed for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange.
The July 2005 Warrants may be exercised on or after July 15, 2006 and have a five-year
term. The initial number of shares issuable upon exercise of the July 2005 Warrants is 3,500,000
shares of common stock, and the initial exercise price per share of common stock is $8.00. The
number of shares and exercise price are subject to certain customary anti-dilution protections and
other customary terms. These terms include, in certain change of control transactions, an
adjustment in the conversion obligation so that the July 2005 Warrants, upon exercise, will entitle
the July 2005 Warrant holders to receive shares of stock, other securities or other property or
assets, receivable upon the occurrence of such transaction by a holder of shares of the Companys
common stock in such transaction.
Upon a continuing event of default, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount
of the July 2005 Senior Debentures may declare the July 2005 Senior Debentures immediately due and
payable, which could lead to cross-defaults and possible acceleration of unpaid principal and
accrued interest of the Subordinated Debentures, April 2005 Senior Debentures and the 2005 Credit
Facility (defined below).
In connection with the Series B lawsuit described above, on November 9, 2006, the Company
entered into an agreement with the holders of the July 2005 Debentures, pursuant to which the
Company paid a consent fee equal to 1.00% of the outstanding principal amount of the July 2005
Debentures, in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement governing the issuance of the
July 2005 Debentures.
In accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 98-5,
Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently
Adjustable Conversion Ratios and EITF 00-27, Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible
Instruments the Company allocated the proceeds received from the July 2005 Senior Debentures to
the elements of the debt instrument based on their relative fair values. The Company allocated
fair value to the July 2005 Warrants and conversion option utilizing the Black-Scholes option
pricing model, which was consistent with the Companys historical valuation methods. The following
assumptions and estimates were used in the Black-Scholes model: volatility of 48.5%; an average
risk-free interest rate of 3.98%; dividend yield of 0%; and an expected life of 5 years. The fair
value of debt component of the July 2005 Debentures was based on the net present value of the
underlying cash flows discounted at a rate derived from the Companys then publicly traded debt,
which was 11.4%. Once the relative fair values were established the Company allocated the proceeds
to each component of the contract. Because the conversion price was lower than the then current
fair market value of the Companys common stock, the Company determined that a beneficial
conversion feature (BCF) existed which required separate accounting.
The accounting conversion value of the BCF calculated was $14,288 and the fair value allocated
to the July 2005 Warrants was $8,073. The fair value allocated to the warrants and the accounting
conversion value of the BCF amounting to $22,361 were recorded as credits to additional paid in
capital. Additionally, $1,000 paid to the holders in connection with this transaction was recorded
as a reduction of the net proceeds. The offsetting $23,361 was treated as a discount to the $40,000
principal amount of the July 2005 Senior Debentures. Using the effective interest method with an
imputed interest rate of 17.9%, the discount will be accreted as interest expense over the term of
the debt contract to bring the value of the debt to its face amount at the time the principal
payment is due in July 2010.

2005 Credit Facility
On July 19, 2005, the Company entered into a $150,000 Senior Secured Credit Facility (the
2005 Credit Facility), which was amended on December 21, 2005, March 30, 2006, July 19, 2006,
September 29, 2006, and October 31, 2006. The 2005 Credit Facility, as amended, provides for up to
$150,000 in revolving credit and advances, all of which can be available for issuance of letters of
credit, and includes up to $15,000 in a swingline subfacility, which allows for same day borrowing.
Advances under the revolving credit line are limited by the available borrowing base, which is
based upon a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and unbilled receivables.
The Company may not have access to the entire $150,000 because, among other things: (i)
certain accounts receivable for government contracts cannot be included in the calculation of the
borrowing base without obtaining certain consents (this restriction was removed by amendment on
March 30, 2006); and (ii) delays in the Companys ability to provide month-end account receivables
reports negatively impact its ability to include such account receivables as part of the borrowing
base, which determines the amount the Company may borrow under the 2005 Credit Facility. Borrowings
available under the 2005 Credit Facility will be used for general corporate purposes.
In addition, prior to the March 30, 2006 amendment, the Company was required to cash
collateralize 105% of its borrowings, including any outstanding letters of credit, under the 2005
Credit Facility and any accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon. The Company is charged an
annual rate of 2.75% for the credit spread and other fees for its outstanding letters of credit.
The Company fulfilled its obligation to cash collateralize using cash on hand. The requirement to
deposit and maintain cash collateral terminated as part of the March 30, 2006 amendment to the 2005
Credit Facility, and such cash collateral was released to the Company.
Interest on loans (other than swingline loans) under the 2005 Credit Facility are calculated,
at the Companys option, at a rate equal to LIBOR, or, for dollar-denominated loans, at a rate
equal to the higher of the banks corporate base rate or the Federal funds rate plus 50 basis
points (Base Rate Loans). No matter which rate the Company chooses, an applicable margin is added
that varies depending upon availability under the revolver. For Base Rate Loans, the applicable
margin ranges from 0.25% (when availability is greater than $100,000) to 1.25% (when availability
is less than or equal to $25,000); provided that until the Company is current in its SEC filings,
the applicable margin shall be 1.00%. For LIBOR loans, the applicable margin ranges from 1.25%
(when availability is greater than $100,000) to 2.25% (when availability is less than or equal to
$25,000); provided that until the Company is current in its SEC filings, the applicable margin
shall be 2.00%. Interest on swingline loans under the 2005 Credit Facility are calculated at a
rate equal to the higher of the banks corporate base rate or the Federal funds rate plus 50 basis
points plus the applicable margin for Base Rate Loans. A facility fee on the unused portion of the
commitments of the lenders under the 2005 Credit Facility will be due at a rate of 0.50% per annum.
In the event of a default, the interest rate increases by 2.0%.
The 2005 Credit Facility matures on July 15, 2010, unless on or before December 15, 2008, the
April 2005 Senior Debentures shall have not been (i) fully converted into common stock of the
Company or (ii) refinanced or replaced with securities that do not require the Company to make any
principal payments (including, without limitation, by way of a put option) on or prior to July 15,
2010, in which case the 2005 Credit Facility matures on December 15, 2008.
The 2005 Credit Facility contains affirmative, financial and negative covenants.
|
|
|
The financial covenants include: (i) a minimum U.S. cash collections
requirement of $125,000 monthly and $420,000 by the Company on a rolling three-month
basis, (ii) a minimum trailing twelve-month EBITDA covenant which increases quarterly
from $107,600 (for the quarter ending September 30, 2005) to $333,800 (for the quarter
ending March 31, 2009 and thereafter) as of the end of the applicable quarter, (iii) a
maximum leverage ratio which decreases from 7.7 to 1 (for the quarter ending September
30, 2005) to 2.4 to 1 (for the quarter ending March 31, 2009 and thereafter) as of the
end of the applicable quarter and (iv) a maximum trailing twelve-month capital
expenditures covenant which starts at $111,300 for the quarter ending September 30, 2005
and fluctuates thereafter, including reducing to $89,700 a year thereafter and ultimately
remaining fixed at $94,100, starting with the quarter ending December 31, 2006. |
The EBITDA and maximum leverage ratio will not be tested for a quarterly test period if (i) at
all times during the test period that the borrowing base was less than $120,000, borrowing
availability was greater than $15,000, (ii) at all times during the test period that the borrowing
base was greater than or equal to $120,000 and less than $130,000, borrowing availability was
greater than $20,000, or (iii) at all times during the test period that the borrowing base was
greater than or equal to $130,000, borrowing availability was greater
than $25,000. The Company intends to maintain, and the Companys management believes that it has maintained
through November 30, 2006, the minimum borrowing availability in sufficient amounts so as not to
trigger the minimum EBITDA and maximum leverage ratio covenants, and, the Company is permitted to
post cash collateral, which amount will count toward the borrowing availability, so that these
covenants are not tested. If the Company does not maintain the required minimum borrowing
availability and the Company is unable to post sufficient cash collateral to rectify a borrowing
availability shortfall and these financial covenants are tested, the Company would likely not be in
compliance with these covenants, resulting in a default under the 2005 Credit Facility.

|
The affirmative covenants include: |
(i) becoming current in the Companys SEC filings according to the following schedule:
|
|
|
the Companys 2005 Form 10-K by November 30, 2006,
which was filed on November 22, 2006; |
|
|
|
|
the Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September
30, 2005 by the earlier of two months after the date the Company files the 2005 Form
10-K and January 31, 2007, which were filed on the date hereof; |
|
|
|
|
the Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2006 by February 28, 2007; and |
|
|
|
|
the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 by March 31, 2007; and |
(ii) the Company must have repatriated at least $65,000 of cash from foreign subsidiaries
(in December 2005, the Company repatriated $66,600 of cash from its foreign subsidiaries);
and
(iii) the Company must provide weekly reports with respect to its cash position until the
Company becomes current in its SEC filings and has satisfactory collateral systems, as
defined by its lender (i.e., internal controls
and accounting systems with respect to accounts receivable, cash and accounts payable), at
which time the Company must provide monthly reports. The Company must also provide monthly
reports with respect to its utilization and bookings data through November 2006, including
divisional profit and loss statements and operating data for the months of April through
November 2006.
|
|
|
The negative covenants restrict certain of the Companys corporate
activities, including, among other things, its ability to make acquisitions or
investments, make capital expenditures, repay other indebtedness, merge or consolidate
with other entities, dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends,
create liens, make investments (including limitations on loans to its foreign
subsidiaries) settle litigation and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. |
|
|
|
|
The events of default include, among others, defaults based on: certain
bankruptcy and insolvency events; nonpayment; cross-defaults to other debt; payments in
respect of judgments against the Company in excess of $18,000; breach of specified
covenants; change of control; termination of trading of Company stock; material
inaccuracy of representations and warranties; failure to timely deliver audited financial
statements; inaccuracy of the borrowing base; the prohibition or restraint on the Company
or any loan party from conducting its business in any manner that has or could reasonably
be expected to result in a material adverse effect because of any ruling, decision or
order of a court or governmental authority; an indictment, conviction or the commencement
of criminal proceedings of or against the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to which (a)
either damages or penalties could be in excess of $5,000 or (b) such indictment could
reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect. |
Upon an event of default under the 2005 Credit Facility, the lenders may require the
Company to post cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the principal amount of the
outstanding letters of credit. In addition, lenders may declare all borrowings outstanding under
the 2005 Credit Facility, together with accrued interest and other fees, immediately due and
payable. Any default under the 2005 Credit Facility or agreements governing the Companys other
significant indebtedness could lead to an acceleration of debt under the 2005 Credit Facility or
other debt instruments that contain cross-default provisions.
The Companys obligations under the 2005 Credit Facility are secured by liens and security
interests in substantially all of its present and future tangible and intangible assets and those
of certain of its domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors of such obligations (including 65.0% of the
stock of its foreign subsidiaries), subject to certain exceptions.
In addition, in connection with the Series B lawsuit described above, the lenders of the 2005
Credit Facility granted the Company waivers for any default under the 2005 Credit Facility
resulting from the Series B debenture lawsuit and the defaults alleged therein, and also consented
to the Companys payment of consent fees to the holders of each series of debentures as well as
increases in the interest rates payable on all of the debentures.

Yen-Denominated Term Loans and Line of Credit
On January 31, 2003, the Companys Japanese subsidiary entered into a 2.0 billion
yen-denominated unsecured term loan. Scheduled principal payments are every six months through July
31, 2005 in the amount of 334.0 million yen and include a final payment of 330.0 million yen on
January 31, 2006, which has been paid.
On June 30, 2003, the Companys Japanese subsidiary entered into a 1.0 billion
yen-denominated unsecured term loan. Scheduled principal payments are every six months through
December 31, 2005 in the amount of 167.0 million yen and include a final payment of 165.0 million
yen on June 30, 2006, which has been paid. Borrowings under the term loan accrue interest of the
TIBOR plus 1.40%.
On August 30, 2004, the Companys Japanese subsidiary extended its yen-denominated
revolving line of credit facility and overdraft line of credit facility dated December 16, 2002.
The renewed agreement includes a yen-denominated revolving line of credit facility with an
aggregate principal balance not to exceed 1.85 billion yen (approximately $18,026 as of December
31, 2004) and an overdraft line of credit facility with an aggregate principal balance not to
exceed 0.5 billion yen (approximately $4,872 as of December 31, 2004). Borrowings under the
revolving line of credit agreement accrue interest of TIBOR plus 0.70% and borrowings under the
overdraft line of credit facility accrue interest of Short Term Prime Rate plus 0.125%. These
facilities, which were scheduled to mature on August 31, 2005 (and were extended to, and paid in
full on, December 16, 2005) are unsecured, do not contain financial covenants, and are not
guaranteed by the Company.
Discontinued Credit Facilities
On May 29, 2002, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a commercial lender, for a
revolving credit facility with a maximum aggregate principal balance of $250,000. The funds
available under the credit arrangement were used for general corporate purposes, for working
capital, and for acquisitions subject to certain restrictions. The credit agreement provided for
the issuance of letters of credit, in the aggregate amount not to exceed $30,000, with a maximum
maturity of twelve months from the date of issuance. Interest on borrowings under the credit
agreement was determined, at the Companys option, based on the prime rate, the LIBOR rate plus a
margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.625% or the Libo (as defined therein) plus a margin ranging from
0.875% to 1.625%. There were commitment fees ranging from 0.20% to 0.275% for the revolving credit.
The interest rate margins and the commitment fees varied based on the Companys leverage ratio at
quarter-end. The revolving credit facility expired on May 29, 2005.
On December 17, 2004, the Company entered into a $400,000 Interim Senior Secured Credit
Agreement (the 2004 Interim Credit Facility), which provided for up to $400,000 in revolving
credit, all of which was to be available for issuance of letters of credit (subject to
restrictions), and included up to $20,000 in a swingline subfacility. The amount of available
borrowings was limited due to the Companys failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. Based on preliminary information available during the
first quarter of 2005, management anticipated that the Company may not have met one or more of the
covenants contained within the 2004 Interim Credit Facility. In order to avoid any potential
events of default from occurring under the 2004 Interim Credit Facility, the Company obtained
amendments on March 17, 2005 and on March 24, 2005, which provided relief from certain covenant
compliance requirements. The 2004 Interim Credit Facility was terminated by the Company on April
26, 2005.
The 2004 Interim Credit Facility was replaced by the 2005 Credit Facility on July 19,
2005 (see above). Immediately prior to termination of the 2004 Interim Credit Facility, there were
no outstanding loans under the 2004 Interim Credit Facility; however, there were outstanding
letters of credit of approximately $87,700, which were issued primarily to meet the Companys
obligations to collateralize certain surety bonds issued to support client engagements, mainly in
its state and local government business. The $87,700 in letters of credit remained outstanding
after the termination of the 2004 Interim Credit Facility. In order to support the letters of
credit that remained outstanding, the Company provided the lenders under the 2004 Interim Credit
Facility with the following collateral: (i) $94,300 of cash which was sourced from cash on hand;
and (ii) a security interest in the Companys domestic accounts receivable. Upon entering the 2005
Credit Facility, the lenders under the 2004 Interim Credit Facility: (i) released all but $5,000 of
the cash collateral (remaining $5,000, net of expenses, was returned to the Company on April 4,
2006); (ii) released its security interest in the domestic accounts receivable; and (iii) received
an $85,400 letter of credit issued by the lenders under the 2005 Credit Facility.
Early Extinguishment of Senior Notes
On November 26, 2002, the Company completed a private placement of $220,000 in aggregate
principal of Senior Notes. The offering consisted of $29,000 of 5.95% Series A Notes due November
2005, $46,000 of 6.43% Series B Senior Notes due November 2006 and $145,000 of 6.71% Series C
Senior Notes due November 2007. The Senior Notes restricted

(unaudited)
the Companys ability to incur
additional indebtedness and required the Company to maintain certain levels of fixed charge
coverage and net worth, while limiting its leverage ratio to certain levels. The proceeds from the
sale of these Senior Notes were used to repay a $220,000 short-term revolving credit facility
entered into for the purpose of funding a portion of the acquisition cost of BE Germany. In
December 2004, the entire $220,000 of Senior Notes was prepaid, using proceeds from the Companys
sale of its Subordinated Debentures (see above). Due to the prepayment, the Company recorded in
2004, a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $22,617, which represented the make whole
premium, unamortized debt issuance costs and fees.
Note 4. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect
of potential future issues of common stock relating to the Companys stock option program,
restricted stock units, convertible debt and other potentially dilutive securities. In calculating
diluted earnings (loss) per share, the dilutive effect of stock options is computed using the
average market price for the period in accordance with the treasury stock method. The effect of
convertible securities on the calculation of diluted net loss per share is calculated using the if
converted method. The convertible debt was excluded from the
calculation of the diluted earnings
per share for all periods due to its anti-dilutive effect. During the three months ended March 31,
2005 and 2004, 98,678,897 shares and 60,942,756 shares, respectively, were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per
share:

Note 6. Segment Reporting
The Companys segment information has been prepared in accordance with SFAS No. 131,
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Operating segments are
defined as components of an enterprise engaging in business activities about which separate
financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Companys chief operating
decision-maker, the Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess
performance. The Companys reportable segments consist of its three North America industry groups
(Public Services, Financial Services and Commercial Services), its three international regions
(EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America) and the Corporate/Other category (which consists primarily
of infrastructure costs). Accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Companys 2005 Form 10-K. Upon
consolidation, all intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. Inter-segment revenue is
not included in the measure of profit or loss. Performance of the segments is evaluated on
operating income excluding the costs of infrastructure functions (such as facilities, information
systems, finance and accounting, human resources, legal and marketing). Beginning in fiscal 2005,
the Company combined its Communications, Content and Utilities and Consumer, Industrial and
Technology industry groups to form the Commercial Services industry group.

Note 7. Transactions with KPMG LLP
During 2004, KPMG LLP, the Companys former parent, reduced its holdings in Company
common stock to less than 5%, and in February 2005, the transaction services agreement (described
below) between the Company and KPMG LLP expired. For these reasons, along with certain other
factors, KPMG LLP is no longer considered a related party to the Company. There were various
arrangements that remained in place during 2005 between the Company and KPMG LLP for infrastructure
services (discussed below) and indemnification agreements (see Note 10, Commitments and
Contingencies).
Infrastructure Services. Effective January 31, 2000, the Company and KPMG LLP entered into an
outsourcing agreement whereby the Company received and was charged for services performed by KPMG
LLP, which was amended and restated effective July 1, 2000 to eliminate the services related costs
that were not required. On February 13, 2001, the Company and KPMG LLP entered into a transition
services agreement whereby the Company received and was charged for infrastructure services on
substantially the same basis as the amended and restated outsourcing agreement. The allocation of
costs to the Company for such services was based on actual costs incurred by KPMG LLP and were
allocated among KPMG LLPs assurance and tax businesses and the Company primarily on the basis of
full-time equivalent personnel and actual usage (specific identification). With regard to
facilities costs, the Company and KPMG LLP have entered into arrangements pursuant to which the
Company subleases from KPMG LLP office space that was formally allocated to the Company under the
outsourcing agreement. The terms of the arrangements are substantially equivalent to those under
the original outsourcing agreement, and will extend over the remaining period covered by the lease
agreement between KPMG LLP and the lessor.

Effective October 1, 2002, the Company and KPMG LLP entered into an outsourcing services
agreement under which KPMG LLP provides the Company certain services relating to office space.
These services covered by the outsourcing services agreement had previously been provided under the
transition services agreement. The services will be provided for three years at a cost that is less
than the cost for comparable services under the transition services agreement.
The transition services agreement and outsourcing services agreement expired on February
13, 2005 and October 1, 2005, respectively. The Company continues to sublease office space from
KPMG LLP after the expiration of the transition services agreement under operating lease
agreements.
Total expenses allocated to the Company under the transition services agreement and
outsourcing services agreement with regard to occupancy costs and other infrastructure services
were as follows:

On April 20, 2005, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred,
causing the Company to perform a goodwill impairment test on all reporting units. The triggering
event resulted from the Companys public announcement of likely restatements of prior period
financial statements along with significant delays in filing 2004 annual results and anticipated
delays in filing 2005 quarterly results. The Company determined this triggering event may have a
significant adverse effect on its business climate and regulatory environment. As required by SFAS
No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142), the Company applied a two-step
impairment test to identify the potential impairment and, if necessary, to measure the amount of
the impairment. The Company performed step one of the impairment test to identify the potential
impairment and determined there was no impairments to any reporting units. As a result, the step
two impairment test was not considered necessary.

In the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred,
causing the Company to perform a goodwill impairment test on all of its reporting units. The
triggering event resulted from a combination of various factors, including lower than previously
expected results in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2005 and the change in managements
expectation of future results. As required by SFAS 142, the Company performed a two-step impairment
test to identify the potential impairments and, if necessary, to measure the amount of the
impairment. Under step one of the impairment test, the Company
determined there were potential impairments
in its Commercial Services and EMEA reporting units. In determining the fair value of its
Commercial Services and EMEA reporting units, the Company revised certain assumptions relative to
each reporting unit, which significantly decreased their fair value as compared to the fair value
determined during the Companys most recent goodwill impairment test, which was performed as of
April 20, 2005. For the Commercial Services reporting unit, these revisions included the negative
impact on future periods from operating losses associated with the Hawaiian Telcom Communications,
Inc. contract. For the EMEA reporting unit, these revisions included lowering operating margin
growth expectations. In order to quantify the impairment, under step two of the impairment test,
the Company completed a hypothetical purchase price allocation of the fair value determined in step
one to all of the respective assets and liabilities of its Commercial Services and EMEA reporting
units. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2005, goodwill impairment losses of $64,188 and
$102,227 were recognized in the Commercial Services and the EMEA reporting units, respectively, as
the carrying amount of each reporting unit was greater than the revised fair value of that
reporting unit (as determined using the expected present value of future cash flows), and the
carrying amount of each reporting units goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of that goodwill.
The goodwill impairment loss of $64,188 for the Commercial Services reporting unit represented a
full impairment of the remaining goodwill in that reporting unit.
Identifiable intangible assets include finite-lived intangible assets, which primarily consist
of market rights, order backlog, customer contracts and related customer relationships.
Identifiable intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their expected
period of benefit, which generally ranges from one to five years. Identifiable intangible assets
consist of the following:

Note 9. Restructuring Activities
In connection with the Companys previously announced office space reduction effort, the
Company recorded a $19,605 restructuring charge during the three months ended March 31, 2005
related to lease, facility and other exit activities. The $19,605 charge, recorded within the
Corporate/Other operating segment, included $15,309 related to the fair value of future lease
obligations (net of estimated sublease income) and $4,296 in other costs associated with exiting
facilities. Since July 2003, the Company has incurred a total of $92,740 in lease and facilities
related restructuring charges in connection with its office space reduction effort relating to the
following regions: $11,431 in EMEA, $697 in Asia Pacific and $80,612 in North America. As of March
31, 2005, the Company has a remaining lease and facilities accrual of $57,027, of which $18,570 and
$38,457 have been identified as current and non-current portions, respectively. The remaining lease
and facilities accrual will be paid over the remaining lease terms.
As of March 31, 2005, the Companys remaining severance accrual represents unpaid
severance and termination benefits related to reduction in workforce charges recorded during the
six months ended December 31, 2003. The remaining severance accrual is expected to be paid by the
end of 2006.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company currently is a party to a number of disputes which involve or may involve
litigation or other legal or regulatory proceedings. Generally, there are three types of legal
proceedings to which the Company has been made a party:
|
|
|
Claims and investigations arising from its continuing inability to timely file
periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange
Act), and the restatement of its financial statements for certain prior periods to
correct accounting errors and departures from generally accepted accounting principles
for those years (SEC Reporting Matters); |
|
|
|
|
Claims and investigations being conducted by agencies or officers of the U.S.
Federal Government and arising in connection with its provision of services under
contracts with agencies of the U.S. Federal Government (Government Contracting
Matters); and |
|
|
|
|
Claims made in the ordinary course of business by clients seeking damages for
alleged breaches of contract or failure of performance and by current or former
employees seeking damages for alleged acts of wrongful termination or discrimination
(Other Matters). |
The 2005 Credit Facility contains limits on the amounts of civil litigation payments that the
Company is permitted to pay, as follows: up to $75,000 during the 24-month period ending July 18,
2007, and up to $15,000 during any twelve consecutive months thereafter, in each case, net of any
insurance proceeds. Failure to abide by these limits could result in a default under the credit
facility for which, after opportunity to cure the default, outstanding indebtedness under the 2005
Credit Facility could be accelerated.
The Company currently maintains insurance in types and amounts customary in its industry,
including coverage for professional liability, general liability and management and director
liability. The Company expenses legal fees as incurred. Based on its current assessment,
management believes that the Companys financial statements include adequate provision for
estimated losses that are likely to be incurred with regard to such matters.
SEC Reporting Matters
2003 Class Action Suits
As disclosed in the Companys prior reports, various separate complaints purporting to be
class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia alleging
that the Company and certain of its officers violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5
promulgated thereunder, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The complaints contain varying
allegations, including that the Company made materially misleading statements with respect to its
financial results for the first three quarters of fiscal 2003 in its SEC filings and press
releases. The Plaintiffs Amended Consolidated Complaint was filed on December 31, 2003.
Defendants Motion to Dismiss was filed on February 10, 2004. On March 31, 2004, the parties filed
a stipulation requesting that the court approve a settlement of this matter for $1,700, all of
which is to be paid by the Companys insurer. On April 2, 2004, the court considered and gave
preliminary approval to the
19

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
proposed settlement. Notice of the proposed settlement was sent to the purported class of
shareholders, and the court gave final approval to the proposed settlement on July 16, 2004.
2005 Class Action Suits
In and after April 2005, various separate complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court for
the Eastern District of Virginia alleging that the Company and certain of its current and former
officers and directors violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act by, among other things, making materially
misleading statements between August 14, 2003 and April 20, 2005 with respect to the Companys
financial results in its SEC filings and press releases. On January 17, 2006, the court certified
a class, appointed class counsel and appointed a class representative. The plaintiffs filed an
amended complaint on March 10, 2006 and the defendants, including the Company, subsequently filed a
motion to dismiss that complaint, which was fully briefed and heard on May 5, 2006. It is not
possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in this
matter or, if not, what the impact might be. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.

On May 21, 2005, the Company received a letter from counsel representing one of its
shareholders requesting that the Company initiate a lawsuit against its Board of Directors and
certain present and former officers of the Company, alleging breaches of the officers and
directors duties of care and loyalty to the Company relating to the events disclosed in its report
filed on Form 8-K, dated April 20, 2005. On January 21, 2006, the shareholder filed a derivative
complaint in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, that was not served on the Company
until March 2006. The shareholders complaint alleged that his demand was not acted upon and
alleged the breach of fiduciary duty claims previously stated in his demand. The complaint also
included a non-derivative claim seeking the scheduling of an annual meeting in 2006. On May 18,
2006, following an extensive audit committee investigation and
recommendation, the Companys Board of Directors
responded to the shareholders demand by declining at that time to file a suit alleging the claims
asserted in the shareholders demand. The shareholder did not amend the complaint to reflect the
refusal of his demand. The Company filed demurrers and pleas in bar on August 11, 2006, which effectively sought to
dismiss the matter related to the fiduciary duty claims. On November 3, 2006, the court granted the
demurrers and dismissed the fiduciary claims based on the
Boards refusal of the demand, with leave to file amended
derivative claims. On January 3, 2007, the plaintiff filed an
amended derivative complaint re-asserting the previously dismissed
derivative claims and alleging that the Boards refusal of his
demand was not in good faith. The amended derivative complaint does
not re-assert the non-derivative claim seeking the scheduling of an
annual meeting and states that that claim is now moot because the
Company held its annual meeting in December 2006. It is not possible to predict the outcome of this
matter, or what the impact might be. The Company believes, however, that claims for which money
damages could be assessed are derivative claims asserted on the Companys behalf and for which the
Companys liability would be limited to attorneys fees.
Series B Debenture Suit
On September 8, 2005, certain holders of the Series B Debentures provided a purported Notice
of Default to the Company based upon its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2004 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31,
2005 and June 30, 2005. On or about November 17, 2005, the Company received a notice from these
holders of the Series B Debentures, asserting that an event of default had occurred and was
continuing under the indenture for the Series B Debentures and, as a result, the principal amount
of the Series B Debentures, accrued and unpaid interest and unpaid damages were due and payable
immediately.
Based on the foregoing, the indenture trustee for the Series B Debentures brought suit
against the Company and, on September 19, 2006, the Supreme Court of New York ruled that the
Company was in default under the indenture for the Series B Debentures and ordered that the amount
of damages to be determined subsequently at trial. The Company believed the ruling to be in error
and on September 25, 2006, appealed the courts ruling and moved for summary judgment on the matter
of determination of damages.
After further negotiations, on November 7, 2006, the Company and the relevant holders of
its Series B Debentures filed a stipulation to discontinue the lawsuit. Concurrent with the
agreement to discontinue the lawsuit, the Company entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the
First Supplemental Indenture) with The Bank of New York, as trustee, which amends the
subordinated indenture governing the Series A Debentures and the Series B Debentures. The First Supplemental Indenture
includes a waiver of the Companys SEC reporting requirements under the subordinated indenture
through October 31, 2008. Pursuant to the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture, effective as
of November 7, 2006: (i) the interest rate payable on the Series A Debentures will increase from
3.00% per annum to 3.10% per annum (inclusive of any liquidated damages relating to the failure to
file a registration statement for the Series A Debentures that may be payable) until December 23,
2011, and (ii) the interest rate
20

Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
payable on the Series B Debentures will increase from 3.25% per annum to 4.10% per annum
(inclusive of any liquidated damages relating to the failure to file a registration statement for
the Series B Debentures that may be payable) until December 23, 2014. The increased interest rates
apply to all Series A Debentures and Series B Debentures outstanding.
In connection with the resolution of this matter and so as to cure any lingering claims
of default or cross-default, on November 2, 2006, the Company entered into a First Supplemental
Indenture with The Bank of New York, as trustee, which amends the indenture governing its April
2005 Senior Debentures. The supplemental indenture includes a waiver of its SEC reporting
requirements through October 31, 2007 and provides for further extension through October 31, 2008
upon payment of an additional fee of 0.25% of the principal amount of the debentures. The Company
paid to each consenting holder of these debentures a consent fee equal to 1.00% of the outstanding
principal amount of the debentures. In addition, on November 9, 2006, the Company entered into an
agreement with the holders of July 2005 Senior Debentures, pursuant to which the Company paid a
consent fee equal to 1.00% of the outstanding principal amount of the debentures, in accordance
with the terms of the purchase agreement governing the issuance of these debentures.
SEC Investigation
On April 13, 2005, pursuant to the same matter number as their inquiry concerning the
Companys restatement of certain financial statements issued in 2003, the staff of the SECs
Division of Enforcement requested information and documents relating to the Companys March 18,
2005 Form 8-K. On September 7, 2005, the Company announced that the staff had issued a formal
order of investigation in this matter. The Company subsequently received subpoenas from the staff
seeking production of documents and information including certain information and documents related
to an investigation conducted by the Audit Committee of the Companys Board of Directors.
In connection with the investigation by the Audit Committee, the Company became aware of
incidents of possible non-compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and its internal
controls in connection with certain of its operations in China and voluntarily reported these
matters to the SEC and U.S. Department of Justice in November 2005. Both the SEC and the
Department of Justice have indicated they will investigate these matters in connection with the
formal investigation described above. On March 27, 2006, the Company received a subpoena from the
SEC regarding information related to these matters. The investigation is ongoing and the SEC is in
the process of taking the testimony of current and former employees
and a director. The Company has a reasonable
possibility of loss in this matter, although no estimate of such loss can be determined at this
time.
Government Contracting Matters
Government Contracts
A significant portion of the Companys business relates to providing services under contracts
with the U.S. Federal government or state and local governments. These contracts are subject to
extensive legal and regulatory requirements and, from time to time, agencies of the U.S. Federal
government or state and local governments investigate whether the Companys operations are being
conducted in accordance with these requirements and the terms of the relevant contracts. In the
ordinary course of business, various government investigations are ongoing. U.S. Federal government
investigations of the Company, whether relating to these contracts or conducted for other reasons,
could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or
penalties being imposed upon the Company, or could lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S.
Federal government contracting. The Company believes that it has adequately reserved for any losses
it may experience from these investigations. Whether such amounts could have a material effect on
the results of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year cannot be determined at this time.
Grand Jury Subpoena California
In December 2004, the Company was served with a subpoena by the Grand Jury for the U.S.
District Court for the Central District of California. The subpoena sought records relating to
twelve contracts between the Company and the U.S. Federal government, including two General Service
Administration (GSA) schedules, as well as other documents and records relating to its U.S.
Federal Government work. The Company has begun to produce documents in accordance with an
agreement with the Assistant U.S. Attorney. The focus of the review is upon the Companys billing
and time/expense practices, as well as alliance agreements where referral or commission payments
were permitted. On July 20, 2005, the Company was served with a subpoena issued by the U.S. Army,
requesting items related to Department of Defense contracts. The Company has subsequently been
served with subpoenas issued by the Inspector General of the GSA. Given the broad scope of the
subpoena and the limited information the Company has received from the U.S. Attorneys office
regarding the
21
BearingPoint, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
status of its investigation, it is impossible to predict with any degree of accuracy how this
matter will develop and how it will be resolved. The Company does not believe that it is either
probable that the subpoena will result in a liability to the Company or that the amount or range of
a future liability, if any, can be determined. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.
Travel Rebate Investigation
In December 2005, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the Civil Division of the
U.S. Department of Justice to settle allegations of potential understatement of travel credits to
government contracts. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, in December 2005, the Company paid
$15,500 in the aggregate, including related fees. The settlement payment is included as part of
selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the
year ended December 31, 2004.
Department of Interior
On September 29, 2005, the Company received a Termination for Cause notice (the Notice)
directing it to cease work on a task order (Task Order 3) being completed for the Department of
Interior (DOI). The Company complied and has properly reserved any outstanding amounts owed to it
by the DOI as of December 31, 2004. The underlying Basic Purchase Agreement was subsequently
terminated for cause as well, though the only task order that was potentially affected was Task
Order 3. In the Notice, the DOI also stated that it may seek to recover excess reprocurement costs
or pursue other legal remedies, but it has taken no action in this regard. The Company believes
that it has a strong defense of excusable delay, and believes that where there is a meritorious
case of excusable delay, terminations for cause have been overturned. The Company also believes
that if the termination for cause is removed, any potential reprocurement cost liability is also
removed. On July 28, 2006, the Company submitted a claim in the amount of approximately $20,000 to
the Government for amounts it believes are owed to it by the DOI. The Companys efforts with the
DOI to reach a negotiated settlement of this matter stalled, and the Company has filed a complaint
with the Court of Federal Claims to overturn the termination for cause on September 26, 2006. Under
the rules, the Company needs a decision from the contracting officer before it can appeal its claim
to the court. The DOI informed the Company that the decision will be rendered on or before
mid-January 2007. Accordingly, at this time a claim against the Company for additional amounts
could be made by the DOI as part of a defensive strategy, but none has been made. If a claim by the
Government is filed, the Company believes there is a reasonable possibility of loss in this matter.
Due to the early stage of this matter and the nature of the potential claims, a range of any
potential loss cannot be determined at this time.
USAID Contract
On October 25, 2005, the Company received a letter from USAID in which the Contracting Officer
stated that she had determined to disallow approximately $10,746 in subcontractor costs for Kroll,
the Companys security subcontractor in Iraq. The Company also received a final decision from the
Contracting Officer, dated January 7, 2006, disallowing the Kroll costs. However, on July 10, 2006,
based on review and analysis of additional documentation, the Contracting Officer issued a revised
final decision that allowed $10,320 of the costs, while disallowing the remainder, which the
Company substantially recovered from Kroll.
Core Financial Logistics System
There is an ongoing investigation of the Core Financial Logistics System (CoreFLS) project
by the Inspector Generals Office of the Department of Veterans Affairs and by the Assistant U.S.
Attorney for the Central District of Florida. To date, the Company has been issued two subpoenas,
in June 2004 and December 2004, seeking the production of documents relating to the CoreFLS
project. The Company is cooperating with the investigation and has produced documents in response
to the subpoenas. To date, there have been no specific allegations of criminal or fraudulent
conduct on the part of the Company. Similarly, there have been no contractual claims filed against
the Company by the Veterans Administration in connection with the CoreFLS project. Management
believes that the Company has complied with all of its obligations under the CoreFLS contract. It
is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful
in this matter or, if not, what the impact might be. As such, no liability has been recorded.
General Services Administration Audit
The Office of the Inspector General of the GSA of the United States Government conducted an
audit of the Companys GSA Management, Organizational, and Business Improvement Services (MOBIS)
contract for the period beginning January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2002. The findings from this
audit report allege non-compliance, which may have
22
BearingPoint, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
resulted in overcharges to Government customers. Specifically, the report alleges that the
Company failed to report and pass on to GSA customers, the reduction it made to its commercial
labor rate (Standard Bill Rate) for Administrative Support effective July 1, 2000. The Inspector
General estimated a potential refund amounting to $2,400 for the period under audit and additional
amounts of $2,300 related to the remainder of the contract extension period (through 2007).
The Company believes that it has not overcharged the Government and is working to resolve
the outstanding issues with the contracting officer. Given the current stage of discussions, the
outcome cannot yet be determined and management estimates the probable amount of loss is $1,200
(accrued as a liability as of March 31, 2005). In addition, the Company is discussing revisions to
the contract with the contracting officer to better align its terms, including pricing, to the
expectations of both parties.
Other Matters
Peregrine Litigation
The Company was named as a defendant in several civil lawsuits regarding certain software
resale transactions with Peregrine Systems, Inc. during the period 1999 through 2001, in which
purchasers and other individuals who acquired Peregrine stock alleged that the Company participated
in or aided and abetted a fraudulent scheme by Peregrine to inflate Peregrines stock price, and
the Company was also sued by a trustee succeeding the interests of Peregrine for the same conduct.
Specifically, the Company was named as a defendant in the following actions: Ariko v. Moores
(Superior Court, County of San Diego), Allocco v. Gardner (Superior Court, County of San Diego),
Bains v. Moores (Superior Court, County of San Diego), Peregrine Litigation Trust v. KPMG LLP
(Superior Court, County of San Diego), and In re Peregrine Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation
(U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California). The Companys former parent, KPMG
LLP, also sought indemnity from the Company for certain liability it may face in the same
litigations, and the Company agreed to indemnify them in certain of these matters.
As a result of tentative agreements reached in December 2005, the Company executed
conditional settlement agreements whereby the Company is to be released from liability in the
Allocco, Ariko, Bains and Peregrine Litigation Trust matters and in all claims for indemnity by
KPMG LLP in each of these cases. On January 5, 2006, the Company finalized an agreement with KPMG
LLP, providing conditional mutual releases to each other from such fee advancement and
indemnification claims, with no settlement payment or other exchange of monies between the
parties. On January 6, 2006, the Company filed applications for good faith settlement
determinations in Allocco, Ariko, Bains and the Peregrine Litigation Trust matters with respect to
the conditional settlements mentioned above. The applications were granted. On April 6, 2006, the
Companys former co-defendants filed motions, seeking to appeal
the Allocco and Peregrine Litigation Trust rulings. On June 19, 2006, the court denied the motions. The Companys former
co-defendants then appealed to the California Supreme Court. On August 16, 2006, those appeals
were denied. Payments of approximately $36,900 in principal and interest were made in September
2006. The expense relating to these settlement payments was included as part of costs of service
in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The Company did not settle the In re Peregrine Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation. On January
19, 2005, the In re Peregrine Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation matter was dismissed by the trial
court as it relates to the Company. The plaintiffs have appealed the
dismissal of their lawsuit against the Company and briefing of the appeal is underway. The Company believes
there is a reasonable possibility of loss on the appeal based on recent Ninth Circuit precedent.
Due to the nature of that matter, a range of loss cannot be determined at this time. In addition,
to the extent any judgment is entered in favor of the plaintiffs against KPMG LLP, KPMG LLP has
notified the Company that it will seek indemnification for these sums.
On November 16, 2004, Larry Rodda, a former employee, pled guilty to one count of criminal
conspiracy in connection with the Peregrine software resale transactions that continue to be the
subject of the government inquiries. Mr. Rodda also was named in a civil suit brought by the SEC.
The Company was not named in the indictment or civil suit, and is cooperating with the government
investigations.
Hawaiian Telcom Communications, Inc.
The Company has a significant contract (the HT Contract) with Hawaiian Telcom
Communications, Inc., a telecommunications industry client, under which the Company was engaged to
design, build and operate various information technology systems for the client. The Company
incurred losses of $113,257 under this contract in the first quarter
of 2005. The HT Contract has
experienced delays in its build and deployment phases, and contractual milestones have been missed.
The client has alleged that the Company is responsible under the HT Contract to compensate it for
certain costs and other damages incurred as a result of these delays and other alleged failures.
The Company believes the clients nonperformance of
23
BearingPoint, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
its responsibilities under the HT Contract caused delays in the project and impacted its
ability to perform, thereby causing the Company to incur significant damages. The Company also
believes the terms of the HT Contract limit the clients ability to recover certain of their
claimed damages. The Company is negotiating with the client to resolve these issues, apportion
financial responsibility for these costs and alleged damages, and transition remaining work under
the HT Contract to others, as requested by the client. During these negotiations, the Company is
maintaining all of its options, including disputing the clients claims and asserting the Companys
own claims in litigation. At this time, the Company cannot predict the likelihood that it will be
able to resolve this dispute or the outcome of any litigation that might ensue if it is unable to
resolve the dispute. While the Company believes it is probable that it may incur a loss with
respect to this matter, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably estimate a range of
amounts for the loss. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.
Telecommunication Company
A telecommunication industry client has conducted an audit of certain of the Companys time
and expense charges, alleging that the Company inappropriately billed the client for days claimed
to be non-work days, such as days before and after travel days, travel days, overtime, and other
alleged errors. A preliminary audit by the Company of the time and expense records for the project
did not reveal the improprieties as alleged. While the client has threatened litigation, the
Company continues to cooperate with the client in validating the prior charges and expenses for
services rendered. The Company has no basis on which to believe the clients claims are well
founded. While a loss is possible, it is not possible at this time to estimate a potential loss or
range of loss. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.
Michael Donahue
In March 2005, Mr. Donahue filed suit against the Company in connection with the termination
of his employment in February 2005. Mr. Donahue alleges he is owed $3,000 under the terms and
conditions of a Special Termination Agreement he executed in November 2001, between $1,700 and
$2,400 as compensation for the value of stock options he was required to forfeit as the result of
his discharge, and an additional $200 for an unpaid bonus. Mr. Donahue has also argued that a 25%
penalty pursuant to Pennsylvania law should be added to each of these sums. In May 2005, the
Company removed the matter to Federal court. On October 5, 2005, Donahue filed his Complaint in the
case in Federal court, under seal. In this Complaint, in response to the Companys motion to compel
arbitration, Donahue dropped his claims for his stock options and performance bonus, although he is
free to bring those claims again at a later time. On January 31, 2006, Mr. Donahue filed his Demand
for Arbitration, asserting all the claims he originally asserted, including his claims under the
Special Termination Agreement, his claims for his stock options, and his claim for his annual bonus
payment for 2004, in addition to the statutory penalties sought for these unpaid amounts. The
parties are currently selecting arbitrators for the panel. It is reasonably possible that the
Company will incur a loss ranging from $0 to $7,000, with no amount within this range a better
estimate than any other amount. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.
Canon Australia
On June 16, 2006, employees of the Australian subsidiary of Canon presented objections to the
Companys Australian Country Director of deficiencies in the Companys work and alleged
misrepresentations by the Company in connection with an implementation of an enterprise resource
planning and customer relationship management system, which went live in January of 2005. Canon
representatives presented arguments supporting their belief that Canon has suffered damages,
including damages for lost profits and other consequential damages, as a result of the
implementation. Canon has indicated that it desired to seek mediation. This matter is in its very
preliminary stages. The contract limits the damages that may be claimed against the Company to no
more than approximately $19,000. It is reasonably possible the Company will incur a loss. Due to
the early stage of this matter and the nature of the potential claims, a range of loss cannot be
determined at this time.
Transition Services Provided By KPMG LLP
As described in Note 7, Transactions with KPMG LLP, the Company entered into a
transition services agreement, and various other arrangements, with KPMG LLP during February 2001.
Prior to the expiration date of the transition services agreement (February 13, 2004 for most
non-technology services and February 13, 2005 for most technology-related services), the Company
terminated certain services provided by KPMG LLP under the agreement and, in accordance with the
agreement, was liable to KPMG LLP for termination costs.
KPMG LLP contends that the Company owes
approximately $26,214 in termination costs and unrecovered capital for the termination of
information technology services provided under the agreement. However, in accordance with the terms
of the agreement, the Company does not believe that it is liable for termination costs arising upon
the expiration of the agreement. The Company and KPMG LLP have begun proceeding under the dispute
resolution mechanisms specified in the transition services agreement and are separately attempting
to reach
24
BearingPoint, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements (Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
agreement as to the amount, if any, of additional costs payable by the Company to KPMG LLP in
connection with the expiration of the agreement. Accordingly, the amount of additional termination
costs, if any, that the Company will pay to KPMG LLP cannot be reasonably estimated at this time,
and no liability has been recorded.
In connection with the expiration of the transition services agreement, the Company also
agreed to settle a separate arrangement under which it pays KPMG LLP for the use of
occupancy-related assets in the office facilities subleased by the Company from KPMG LLP. As such,
during July 2005, the Company paid KPMG LLP $17,356 for its share of the cost of the
occupancy-related assets that it believes relates to office locations that it subleased from KPMG
LLP. However, KPMG LLP contends the Company owes an additional $5,347. The Company and KPMG LLP
have begun proceeding under the dispute resolution mechanisms referred to in the preceding
paragraph and are separately attempting to reach agreement as to the amount, if any, of additional
costs payable by the Company to KPMG LLP. Approximately $9,660 of the total $17,356 paid to KPMG
LLP related to office locations that were previously abandoned in connection with the Companys
office space reduction effort. Accordingly, the Company has reserved for this amount as part of its
lease and facilities restructuring charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004. The Company classified the remaining $7,696 paid to KPMG LLP as a prepaid service cost,
which the Company plans to amortize over the remaining term of its respective sublease agreements
with KPMG LLP. As of March 31, 2005, the remaining amount to be expensed was $7,404.
Other Commitments
In the normal course of business, the Company has indemnified third parties and has
commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in certain
circumstances. The Company accounts for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in accordance
with FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. These indemnities,
commitments and guarantees include: indemnities of KPMG LLP with respect to the consulting business
that was transferred to the Company in January 2000; indemnities to third parties in connection
with surety bonds; indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases; indemnities
to customers related to intellectual property and performance of services subcontracted to other
providers; and indemnities to directors and officers under the organizational documents and
agreements of the Company. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies,
and in certain cases, is indefinite. Certain of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do
not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be
obligated to make. The Company estimates that the fair value of these agreements was minimal.
Accordingly, no liabilities have been recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2005.
Some clients, largely in the state and local market, require the Company to obtain surety
bonds, letters of credit or bank guarantees for client engagements. As of March 31, 2005, the
Company had approximately $178,304 of outstanding surety bonds and $82,656 of outstanding letters
of credit for which the Company may be required to make future payment.

Note 12. Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company recognized losses before taxes of
$150,845 and provided for income taxes of $81,713, resulting in an effective tax rate of (54.2%).
The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. Federal statutory tax rate, primarily as a result of a
change in valuation allowance, changes in income tax reserves, the mix of income attributable to
foreign versus domestic jurisdictions, state and local taxes, other items and non-deductible meals
and entertainment. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company recorded a valuation
allowance of $57,300 primarily against its U.S. deferred tax assets to reflect the Companys
determination that it is more likely than not that these benefits would not be realized.
For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recognized losses before taxes of
$15,108 and provided for income taxes of $1,902, resulting in an effective tax rate of (12.6%). The
effective tax rate varied from the U.S. Federal statutory tax rate, primarily as a result of the
mix of income attributable to foreign versus domestic jurisdictions, non-deductible reductions in
office space, changes in income tax reserves, non-deductible meals and entertainment, and state and
local taxes.
Note 13. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
As described in Note 2, the Company will adopt SFAS 123R which replaced SFAS 123 and
superseded APB 25 on January 1, 2006.
In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement
Obligations (FIN 47). This is an interpretation of SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143), which applies to all entities and addresses the legal
obligations with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition,
construction, development or normal operation of a long-lived asset. SFAS 143 requires that the
fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which
it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. FIN 47 further clarifies what
the term conditional asset retirement obligation means with respect to recording the asset
retirement obligation discussed in SFAS 143. The provisions of FIN 47 were effective no later than
December 31, 2005. The Companys adoption of FIN 47 did not have a material impact on its
Consolidated Financial Statements.

(unaudited)
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Correctionsa
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS 154). SFAS 154 replaces APB
Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes (APB 20) and SFAS No. 3 Reporting Accounting Changes in
Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of
a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires restatement of prior period financial
statements, unless impracticable, for changes in accounting principle. The retroactive application
of a change in accounting principle should be limited to the direct effect of the change. Changes
in depreciation, amortization or depletion methods should be accounted for as a change in
accounting estimate. Corrections of accounting errors should be accounted for under the guidance
contained in APB 20. The effective date of this new pronouncement is for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2005 and prospective application is required. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS 154 to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN
48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements in accordance with
SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement
attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken
or expected to be taken. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company will be required to adopt this interpretation in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2007. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN 48
and has not yet determined the impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year
Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108).
SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies
quantify financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 requires registrants to quantify the impact of
correcting all misstatements using both the rollover method, which focuses primarily on the
impact of a misstatement on the income statement and is the method currently used by the Company,
and the iron curtain method, which focuses primarily on the effect of correcting the period-end
balance sheet. The use of both of these methods is referred to as the dual approach and should
be combined with the evaluation of qualitative elements surrounding the errors in accordance with
SAB No. 99, Materiality (SAB 99). The Company does not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to have
a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS
157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS 157.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires employers to fully
recognize the obligations associated with single-employer defined benefit pension, retiree
healthcare and other postretirement plans in their financial statements. The provisions of SFAS
158 are effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS 158.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the interim Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included elsewhere in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These statements relate to our operations that are based on our current expectations,
estimates and projections. Words such as may, will, could, would, should, anticipate,
predict, potential, continue, expects, intends, plans, projects, believes,
estimates, in our view and similar expressions are used to identify these forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are only predictions and as such are not guarantees of
future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future events or our future financial
performance that may not prove to be accurate. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially
from what is expressed or forecast in these forward-looking statements. The reasons for these
differences include changes that occur in our continually changing business environment, and the
following factors:
|
|
|
Our continuing failure to timely file certain periodic reports with the SEC poses
significant risks to our business, each of which could materially and adversely affect our
financial condition and results of operations. |
|
|
|
|
In fiscal 2004, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting, which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial
condition, and as of December 31, 2005, these material weaknesses remain. |
|
|
|
|
We face risks related to securities litigation and regulatory actions that could
adversely affect our financial condition and business. |
|
|
|
|
Our business may be adversely impacted as a result of changes in demand, both globally
and in individual market segments, for consulting and systems integration services. |
|
|
|
|
Our operating results will suffer if we are not able to maintain our billing and
utilization rates or control our costs. |
|
|
|
|
The systems integration consulting markets are highly competitive, and we may not be
able to compete effectively if we are not able to maintain our billing rates or control our
costs. |
|
|
|
|
We have incurred significant operating losses under our contract with Hawaiian Telcom
Communications, Inc. and could incur significant additional losses and cash outflows in
fiscal 2006. |
|
|
|
|
Contracting with the Federal government is inherently risky and exposes us to risks that
may materially and adversely affect our business. |
|
|
|
|
Our ability to attract, retain and motivate our managing directors and other key
employees is critical to the success of our business. We continue to experience sustained,
higher-than-industry average levels of voluntary turnover among our workforce, which has
impacted our ability to grow our business. |
|
|
|
|
Our contracts can be terminated by our clients with short notice, or our clients may
cancel or delay projects. |
|
|
|
|
If we are not able to keep up with rapid changes in technology or maintain strong
relationships with software providers, our business could suffer. |
|
|
|
|
Loss of our joint marketing relationships could reduce our
revenue and growth prospects. |
|
|
|
|
We are not likely to be able to significantly grow our business through mergers and
acquisitions in the near term. |
|
|
|
|
There will not be a consistent pattern in our financial results from quarter to quarter,
which may result in increased volatility of our stock price. |
|
|
|
|
Our profitability may decline due to financial, regulatory and operational risks
inherent in worldwide operations. |
|
|
|
|
We may bear the risk of cost overruns relating to our services, thereby adversely affecting our profitability. |
|
|
|
|
We may face legal liabilities and damage to our professional reputation from claims made against our work. |
|
|
|
|
Our services may infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. |
|
|
|
|
We have only a limited ability to protect our intellectual property rights, which are important to our success. |
|
|
|
|
Our current cash resources might not be sufficient to meet our expected near-term cash
needs, especially to fund intra-quarter operating cash requirements and non-recurring cash
requirements (e.g., to settle lawsuits). |
28
|
|
|
We have been unable to issue shares of our common stock under our ESPP since February 1,
2005. The longer we are unable to issue shares of our common stock, the more likely our
ESPP participants may elect to withdraw their accumulated cash contributions from the ESPP
at rates higher than those we have historically experienced. |
|
|
|
|
We have limited availability under our 2005 Credit Facility to borrow additional amounts
or issue additional letters of credit, and we may not be able to refinance our debt or to
do so on favorable terms. |
|
|
|
|
Our 2005 Credit Facility imposes a number of restrictions on the way in which we operate
our business and may negatively affect our ability to finance future needs, or do so on
favorable terms. If we violate these restrictions, we will be in default under the 2005
Credit Facility, which may cross-default to our other indebtedness. |
|
|
|
|
If our operating performance is materially and adversely affected, we may not be able to
service our indebtedness. |
|
|
|
|
We may be required to post collateral to support our obligations under our surety bonds,
and we may be unable to obtain new surety bonds, letters of credit or bank guarantees in
support of client engagements on acceptable terms. |
|
|
|
|
Downgrades of our credit ratings may increase our borrowing costs and materially and
adversely affect our financial condition. |
|
|
|
|
Our leverage may adversely affect our business and financial performance and may
restrict our operating flexibility. |
|
|
|
|
The holders of our debentures have the right, at their option, to require us to purchase
some or all of their debentures upon certain dates or upon the occurrence of certain
designated events, which could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity. |
|
|
|
|
The price of our common stock may decline due to the number of shares that may be
available for sale in the future. |
|
|
|
|
There are significant limitations on the ability of any person or company to acquire the
Company without the approval of our Board of Directors. |
|
|
|
|
The termination of services provided under the transition services agreement with KPMG
LLP could involve significant expense, which could adversely affect our financial results. |
For a more detailed discussion of these factors, see the information under Item 1A, Risk
Factors, in the Companys 2005 Form 10-K and filed as Exhibit
99.2 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These statements speak only as of the date they
were made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
We provide strategic consulting applications services, technology solutions and managed
services to government organizations, Global 2000 companies and medium-sized businesses in the
United States and internationally. In North America, we provide consulting services through our
Public Services, Commercial Services and Financial Services industry groups in which we focus
significant industry-specific knowledge and service offerings to our clients. Outside of North
America, we are organized on a geographic basis, with operations in EMEA, the Asia Pacific region,
and Latin America.
Beginning in 2007, we intend to begin transitioning our business to a more integrated, global
delivery model. This transition will begin by more closely aligning our senior personnel worldwide
who have significant industry specific expertise with our existing North American Public Services,
Commercial Services and Financial Services industry groups. Our non-managing director employees
will then be assigned, as needed, across all of our industry-specific operations. We expect this
change to improve our utilization and provide added training for our professional personnel.
Economic and Industry Factors
We believe that our clients spending for consulting services is partially correlated to,
among other factors, the performance of the domestic and global economy as measured by a variety of
indicators such as gross domestic product, government policies, mergers and acquisitions activity,
corporate earnings, U.S. Federal and state government budget levels, inflation and interest rates
and client confidence levels, among others. As economic uncertainties increase, clients interests
in business and technology consulting historically have turned more to improving existing processes
and reducing costs rather than investing in new innovations. Demand for our services, as evidenced
by new contract bookings, also does not uniformly follow changes in economic cycles. Consequently,
we may experience rapid decreases in new contract bookings at the onset of significant economic
downturns while the benefits of economic recovery may take longer to realize.
The markets in which we provide services are increasingly competitive and global in
nature. While supply and demand in certain lines of business and geographies may support price
increases for some of our standard service offerings from time to time, to maintain and improve our
profitability we must constantly seek to improve and expand our unique service offerings and
deliver our services at increasingly lower cost levels. Our Public Services industry group, which
is our largest,
29
also must operate within the U.S. Federal, state and local government markets where unique
contracting, budgetary and regulatory regimes control how contracts are awarded, modified and
terminated. Budgetary constraints or reductions in government funding may result in the
modification or termination of long-term government contracts, which could dramatically affect the
outlook of that business.
Revenue and Income Drivers
We derive substantially all of our revenue from professional services activities. Our revenue
is driven by our ability to continuously generate new opportunities to serve clients, by the prices
we obtain for our service offerings, and by the size and utilization of our professional workforce.
Our ability to generate new business is directly influenced by the economic conditions in the
industries and regions we serve, our anticipation and response to technological change, the type
and level of technology spending by our clients and by our clients perception of the quality of
our work. Our ability to generate new business is also indirectly and increasingly influenced by
our clients perceptions of our ability to manage our ongoing issues surrounding our financial
accounting, internal controls and SEC reporting capabilities.
Our gross profit is predominantly a function of the factors affecting revenue mentioned above
and how well we manage our costs of services. The primary components of our costs of services
include professional compensation and other direct contract expenses. Professional compensation
consists of payroll costs and related benefits associated with client service professional staff
(including the vesting of RSUs, tax equalization for employees on foreign and long-term domestic
assignments and costs associated with reductions in workforce). Other direct contract expenses
include costs directly attributable to client engagements. These costs include out-of-pocket costs
such as travel and subsistence for client service professional staff, costs of hardware and
software, and costs of subcontractors. If we are unable to adequately control or estimate these
costs, or properly anticipate the sizes of our client service and support staff, our profitability
will suffer.
Our operating profit reflects our revenue less costs of services and certain additional items
that include, primarily, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which include costs
related to marketing, information systems, depreciation and amortization, finance and accounting,
human resources, sales force, and other expenses related to managing and growing our business.
Write-downs in the carrying value of goodwill and amortization of intangible assets have also
reduced our operating profit.
Our operating cash flow is predominantly a function of the factors affecting gross profits
mentioned above and our ability to manage our receivables and payables and efficiently manage our
sources of capital and use of these various sources of capital.
Key Performance Indicators
In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, we focus on the following key
performance indicators: bookings, revenue growth, operating margin (gross profit as a percentage of
revenue), utilization, days sales outstanding, free cash flow and attrition.
|
|
|
Bookings. We believe that information regarding our new contract bookings provides
useful trend information regarding how the volume of our new business changes over time.
Information regarding our new bookings should not be compared to, or substituted for, an
analysis of our revenue over time. There are no third-party standards or requirements
governing the calculation of bookings. New contract bookings are recorded using then
existing currency exchange rates and are not subsequently adjusted for currency
fluctuations. These amounts represent our estimate at contract signing of the
net revenue expected over the term of that contract and involve estimates and judgments
regarding new contracts as well as renewals, extensions and additions to existing
contracts. Subsequent cancellations, extensions and other matters may affect the amount of
bookings previously reported. Bookings do not include potential revenue that could be
earned from a client relationship as a result of future expansion of service offerings to
that client, nor does it reflect option years under contracts that are subject to client
discretion. Although our level of bookings provides some indication of how our business is
performing, we do not characterize our bookings, or our engagement contracts associated
with new bookings, as backlog because our engagements generally can be cancelled or
terminated on short notice or without notice. |
|
|
|
|
Revenue Growth. Unlike bookings, which provide only a general sense of future
expectations, period-over-period comparisons of revenue provide a meaningful depiction of
how successful we have been in growing our business over time. |
30
|
|
|
Gross Margin (gross profit as a percentage of revenue). Gross margin is a
meaningful tool for monitoring our ability to control costs. Analysis of the various cost
elements, including foreign currency translation adjustments and the use of subcontractors,
as a percentage of revenue over time can provide additional information as to the key
challenges we are facing in executing our business model. The cost of subcontractors is
generally more expensive than the cost of our own workforce and can negatively impact our
gross profit. While the use of subcontractors can help us to win larger, more complex
deals, and also may be mandated by our clients, we focus on limiting the use of
subcontractors whenever possible in order to minimize our costs. |
|
|
|
|
Utilization. Utilization represents the percentage of time our consultants are
performing work that is chargeable to a client, and is defined as total hours charged to
client engagements divided by total available hours for any specific time period. In 2006,
we modified the calculation to include the available hours of employees working on
non-chargeable internal projects that had a general relationship to client matters, which
will have the effect of lowering our reported utilization figure by an insignificant
amount. We also further modified this calculation in 2006 by excluding the holiday and
paid vacation time for our employees from the available hours figure. This will have the
effect of raising the utilization rate but will make our reporting of this metric more
consistent with how we believe our industry peer group measures utilization. |
|
|
|
|
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO). DSO is an operational metric that
approximates the amount of earned revenue that remains unpaid by clients at a given time.
DSOs are derived by dividing the sum of our outstanding accounts receivable and unbilled
revenue, less deferred revenue, by our average net revenue per day. Average net revenue
per day is determined by dividing total net revenue for the most recently ended trailing
twelve-month period divided by 365. |
|
|
|
|
Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is calculated by subtracting purchases of property and
equipment from cash provided by operating activities. We believe free cash flow is a
useful measure because it allows better understanding and assessment of our ability to meet
debt service requirements and the amount of recurring cash generated from operations after
expenditures for fixed assets. Free cash flow does not represent the Companys residual
cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory
expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt. We use free cash flow as a measure of
recurring operating cash flow. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most
directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is net cash
provided by operating activities. |
|
|
|
|
Attrition. Attrition, or voluntary total employee turnover, is calculated by dividing
the number of our employees who have chosen to leave the Company within a certain period by
the total average number of all employees during that same period. Previously, we had
provided attrition figures for our billable employees and did not take into account our
non-consultant employees. Starting in 2006, we intend to provide attrition figures for all
of our employees, which we believe provides metrics that are more compatible with, and
comparable to, those of our competitors. |
Readers should understand that each of the performance indicators identified above are
utilized by many companies in our industry and by those who follow our industry. There are no
uniform standards or requirements for computing these performance indicators, and, consequently,
our computations of these amounts may not be comparable to those of our competitors.
First Quarter of 2005 Highlights
During the first quarter of 2005, we continued to face many of the challenges that negatively
affected our performance in the first quarter of 2004. While our core business delivered results
generally consistent with the first quarter of 2004 and we achieved success in addressing some
challenges, much remains to be done, particularly with respect to the process, training and system
issues related to financial accounting for our North American operations and the remediation of
material weaknesses in our internal controls.
|
|
|
New contract bookings for first quarter of 2005 were $694.2 million, a slight decrease
compared to new contract bookings of $706.1 million for the first quarter of 2004. New
contract bookings increased in two of the three industry groups in North America, driven
primarily by strong bookings in our Financial Services industry group, which offset
decreased bookings in the Commercial Services business unit, EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin
America regions. |
|
|
|
|
Our revenue for the first quarter of 2005 was $871.3 million, representing a decrease of
$17.3 million, or 1.9%, from the first quarter of 2004 revenue of $888.6 million. |
31
|
|
|
Our gross profit for the first quarter of 2005 was $25.0 million compared with $142.9
million for the first quarter of 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to
2.9% during fiscal 2005 from 16.1% during the first quarter of 2004. This decrease was
primarily attributable to a $113.3 million loss recognized on the HT Contract, which is
described below. |
|
|
|
|
We have a significant contract (the HT Contract) with Hawaiian Telcom Communications,
Inc., a telecommunications industry client, under which we were engaged to design, build
and operate various information technology systems for the client. We incurred losses of
$113.3 million under this contract in the first quarter of 2005. The HT Contract has
experienced delays in its build and deployment phases and contractual milestones have been
missed. The client has alleged that we are responsible under the HT Contract to compensate
it for certain costs and other damages incurred as a result of these delays and other
alleged failures. We believe the clients nonperformance of its responsibilities under the
HT Contract caused delays in the project and impacted our ability to perform, thereby
causing us to incur significant damages. We also believe the terms of the HT Contract limit
the clients ability to recover certain of their claimed damages. We are negotiating with
the client to resolve these issues, apportion financial responsibility for these costs and
alleged damages, and transition remaining work under the HT Contract to others, as
requested by the client. During these negotiations, we are maintaining all of our options,
including disputing the clients claims and asserting our own claims in litigation. At this
time we cannot predict the likelihood that we will be able to resolve this dispute or the
outcome of any litigation that might ensue if we are unable to resolve the dispute. Even if
resolved, we could incur substantial additional losses under the HT Contract or agree to
pay additional amounts to facilitate termination of the HT Contract. The incurrence of
additional losses or the payment of additional amounts to the client could materially and
adversely affect our profitability, results of operations or cash flow over the near term. |
|
|
|
|
For the first quarter of 2005, all of the material weaknesses in our internal control
over financial reporting cited for fiscal 2004 remain. For information on the developments
and progress made in fiscal 2005, please see Item 4, Controls and Procedures Remediation
of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. |
|
|
|
|
During the first quarter of 2005, we realized a net loss of $232.6 million, or a loss of
$1.16 per share, compared to a net loss of $17.0 million, or a loss of $0.09 per share,
during the first quarter of 2004. Included in our results for the
first quarter of 2005 were $113.3
million of operating losses related to the HT Contract, a $57.3 million increase in the
valuation allowance primarily against our U.S. deferred tax assets, and $19.6 million of
lease and facilities restructuring charges. |
|
|
|
|
Utilization for the first quarter of 2005 was 70.2%, an increase of 360 basis points
over the first quarter of 2004. |
|
|
|
|
At March 31, 2005, our DSOs stood at 112 days, representing an increase of 2 days, or
2%, over our DSOs at March 31, 2004. Given our ongoing systems issues related to
financial accounting for our North American operations, we are currently unable to
calculate DSOs for dates later than December 31, 2005. We continue to focus on
this metric during 2006 as we believe we are at a level that is higher than the industry
average, resulting in a suboptimal use of our cash. |
|
|
|
|
Free cash flow for the first quarter of 2005 was ($112.6) million. Net cash used in
operating activities during the first quarter of 2005 was ($106.2) million. Purchases of
property and equipment during the first quarter of 2005 were ($6.4) million. When this
amount is subtracted from net cash used in operating activities, the result is ($112.6)
million, which is free cash flow. We use free cash flow as a measure of recurring operating
cash flow. Free cash flow is a non GAAP financial measure. The most directly comparable
financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is net cash provided by (used in)
operating activities. |
|
|
|
|
On March 25, 2005, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved the
issuance of up to an aggregate of $165 million in restricted stock units (RSUs) under our
Long-Term Incentive Plan (the LTIP) to our current managing directors and a limited
number of key employees (the Retention RSUs), and delegated to our officers the authority
to grant these awards. During the first quarter of 2005, we recorded non-cash stock
compensation expense of $0.03 million related to the vesting of Retention RSUs, which
significantly impacted both our gross profit and operating income for the quarter. |
|
|
|
|
During fiscal 2005, we completed a number of private securities offerings in an effort
to improve our overall liquidity. We issued an additional $25.0 million aggregate principal
amount of our Series A Debentures and $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of our
Series B Debentures. We also issued an aggregate principal amount of $200.0 million of our
April 2005 Senior Debentures and an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million of our July
2005 Senior Debentures. In total, we received approximately $280.3 million in net proceeds
from all of these |
32
|
|
offerings. For additional information regarding our debt restructuring, see Liquidity and
Capital Resources and Note 3, Notes Payable, of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed
Financial Statements. |
Segments
Our reportable segments for fiscal 2005 consist of our three North America industry groups
(Public Services, Commercial Services, and Financial Services), our three international regions
(EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America) and the Corporate/Other category (which consists primarily
of infrastructure costs). Revenue and gross profit information about our segments are presented
below, starting with each of our industry groups and then with each of our three international
regions (in order of size).
Our chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and
allocates resources among the segments. Upon consolidation, all intercompany accounts and
transactions are eliminated. Inter-segment revenue is not included in the measure of profit or loss
for each reportable segment. Performance of the segments is evaluated on operating income excluding
the costs of infrastructure functions (such as information systems, finance and accounting, human
resources, legal and marketing) as described in Note 6, Segment Reporting, of the Notes to
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. During fiscal 2005, we combined our Communications,
Content and Utilities and Consumer, Industrial and Technology industry groups to form the
Commercial Services industry group. Beginning in 2007, we intend to begin transitioning our
business to a more integrated, global delivery model.

Public Services revenue decreased during the first quarter of 2005, primarily
attributable to our expanding use of employees at lower average bill rates (despite
overall headcount and engagement hours increasing) and an expected reduction of $8.4
million in revenue derived from our subcontractors and resale of procured materials
(which we must bill our clients, thereby increasing our revenue). |
|
|
|
|
Commercial Services revenue decreased during the first quarter of 2005, primarily
driven by revenue declines in the Communications & Content and Energy sectors, which was
partially offset by revenue growth in the Transportation sector. |
|
|
|
|
Financial Services revenue increased during the first quarter of 2005, primarily due
to revenue growth in all sectors, with especially strong growth in the Insurance and
Global Market sectors. Revenue growth was principally due to an increase in demand for
our services. Our average billing rates declined year-over-year, as we increased our use
of lower-priced offshore personnel as a component of our overall pricing model. |
|
|
|
|
EMEA revenue increased during the first quarter of 2005, primarily due to combined
revenue growth in France and the United Kingdom of $12.3 million. Our business in France
experienced a significant shift into systems integration work, while revenue growth in
the United Kingdom was driven by our continued expansion in that region. |
|
|
|
|
Asia Pacific revenue decreased during the first
quarter of 2005, driven primarily by the
planned elimination of subcontractor
usage in the region, which more than offset the improved billing rates achieved across
the region in the first quarter of 2005 due to significantly lower revenue write-offs
during the year. |
|
|
|
|
Latin America revenue decreased during the first quarter of 2005, primarily due to
reduction in subcontractor usage partially offset by the weakening of the U.S. dollar
against local currencies in Latin America (particularly the Brazilian Real). |
|
|
|
|
Corporate/Other: Our Corporate/Other segment does not contribute significantly to our
revenue. |
Gross Profit. During the first quarter of 2005, our revenue decreased $17.3 million and total
costs of service increased $100.6 million when compared to the first quarter of 2004, resulting in
a decrease in gross profit of $117.9 million, or 82.5%. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue
decreased to 2.9% for the first quarter of 2005 from 16.1% for the first quarter of 2004. The
change in gross profit for the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter of 2004 resulted
primarily from the following:
|
|
|
Professional compensation expense increased as a percentage of revenue to 54.7% for the
first quarter of 2005, compared to 42.6% for the first quarter of 2004. We experienced a
net increase in professional compensation expense of $98.1 million, or 25.9%, to $476.6
million for the first quarter of 2005 from $378.4 million for the first quarter of 2004.
The increase in professional compensation expense is primarily the result of hiring
additional billable employees in response to overall market demand for our services and
additional compensation cost related to the loss accrual for the HT Contract. |
|
|
|
|
Other direct contract expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue to 32.6% for the
first quarter of 2005 compared to 33.1% for the first quarter of 2004. We experienced a
net decrease in other direct contract expenses of $10.4 million, or 3.5%, to $283.8
million for the first quarter of 2005 from $294.2 million for the first quarter of 2004.
The change was driven primarily by reduced subcontractor expenses as a result of the
increased use of internal resources, partially offsetting additional subcontractor expense
accruals for the HT Contract. |
|
|
|
|
Other costs of service as a percentage of revenue decreased to 7.6% for the first
quarter of 2005 from 7.8% for the first quarter of 2004. We experienced a net decrease in
other costs of service of $3.4 million, or 4.8%, to $66.4 million for the first quarter of
2005 from $69.7 million for the first quarter of 2004. The change was driven primarily by
a decrease in bad debt expense and office moving costs. |
|
|
|
|
In the first quarter of 2005 we recorded, within the Corporate/Other operating
segment, a charge of $19.6 million for lease and facilities restructuring costs, compared
with a $3.3 million charge for lease and facilities restructuring costs in the first
quarter of 2004. These costs for the first quarter of 2005 related to our previously
announced reduction in office space primarily within the North America, EMEA and Asia
Pacific regions. |

Changes in gross profit by segment were as follows:
|
|
|
Public Services gross profit decreased in the first quarter of 2005, in large measure
due to a $21.4 million increase in compensation expense for additional staff and a $46.8
million reduction in gross revenue, which on a combined basis, more than offset
significant reductions of $49.5 million in other direct contract expenses. |
|
|
|
|
Commercial Services gross profit decreased in the first quarter of 2005, primarily due
to significant cost overruns and loss accruals, most notably $113.3 million on the
previously described HT Contract. These costs overruns drove the increase in compensation
expense of $63.7 million along with increases in subcontractor expense accruals and
hardware and software purchases that collectively increased our other direct contract
expenses by $45.2 million, which are substantially not recoverable. |
|
|
|
|
Financial Services gross profit increased in the first quarter of 2005, as higher
revenue across all sectors more than offset significant incremental increases in
compensation expense related to a substantial increase in headcount. |
|
|
|
|
EMEA gross profit increased in the first quarter of 2005, as increases in revenue more
than offset incremental increases in compensation expense largely due to severance costs
associated with workforce realignments in Germany and France. |
|
|
|
|
Asia Pacific gross profit increased in the first quarter of 2005 despite a decrease in
revenue, due in large measure to significant demonstrated improvements in cost management
and realization of contract revenue. |
35
|
|
|
Latin America gross profit increased in the first quarter of 2005 despite a decrease
in revenue, due to decreases in other direct contract expenses as subcontractor usage
was reduced. |
|
|
|
|
Corporate/Other consists primarily of rent expense and other facilities related
charges, which increased in the first quarter of 2005 primarily due to the lease and
facilities restructuring charges discussed above. |
Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets. Amortization of purchased intangible assets
decreased $0.5 million to $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2005 from $1.1 million for the
first quarter of 2004.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative
expenses increased $12.8 million, or 8.5%, to $163.4 million for the first quarter of 2005 from
$150.6 million for the first quarter of 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of gross revenue increased to 18.8% in the first quarter of 2005 from 17.0% for the
first quarter of 2004. The increase was primarily due to higher audit fees and costs related to
Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, along with the continued build-out of our internal IT function
associated with the wind down of services provided under our transition services agreement with
KPMG LLP.
Interest Income. Interest income was $1.4 million and $0.2 million in the first quarter
of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest income is earned primarily from cash and cash
equivalents, including money-market investments. The increase in interest income was due to a
higher level of cash available to be invested in money-markets during the first quarter of 2005 as
compared to the first quarter of 2004.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $8.1 million and $4.4 million in the first quarter of
2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest expense is attributable to our debt obligations, consisting
of interest due along with amortization of loan costs and loan discounts. The increase in interest
expense was due to higher average debt balances in the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the
first quarter of 2004.
Other Expense, net. Other expense, net was $5.1 million and $2.0 million in the first quarter
of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The balances in each period primarily consist of realized foreign
currency exchange losses.
Income Tax Expense. We incurred income tax expense of $81.7 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2005 and income tax expense of $1.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004.
The principal reasons for the difference between the effective income tax rate on loss from
continuing operations of (54.2)% and (12.6)% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively, were: a change in valuation allowance, changes in income tax reserves, the mix of
income attributable to foreign versus domestic jurisdictions, state and local taxes, other items
and non-deductible meals and entertainment.
Net Income (Loss). For the first quarter of 2005, we incurred a net loss of $232.6
million, or a loss of $1.16 per share. Included in our results for first quarter of 2005 were
$113.3 million in operating losses related to the HT Contract, a $57.3 million increase in the
valuation allowance primarily against our U.S. deferred tax assets, and $19.6 million of lease and
facilities restructuring charges. For the first quarter of 2004, we incurred a net loss of $17.0
million, or a loss of $0.09 per share.

Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of
2005 increased $43.5 million over the first quarter of 2004. This increase was primarily due to a
larger net loss of $232.6 million, adjusted by contract loss accruals related to the HT Contract of
$113.3 million (of which $106.1 million remained at March 31, 2005), changes in deferred taxes of
$64.8 million, and lease and facilities restructuring charges of $19.6 million in the first
quarter of 2005 as compared to a net loss of $17.0 million in the first quarter of 2004. Cash was
also negatively impacted by payments associated with the HT Contract, with $7.2 million incurred
during the first quarter of 2005.
Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities during the first quarter of
2005 increased $32.9 million over the first quarter of 2004. This increase was due to a decrease in
restricted cash of $21.1 million for cash collateral posted in support of bank guarantees for
letters of credit and surety bonds and a decrease in capital expenditures of $11.9 million. Capital
expenditures were $6.4 million and $18.2 million in the first quarters of 2005 and 2004,
respectively. The decline in capital expenditures was due primarily to higher hardware and software
costs incurred during first quarter of 2004 for the implementation of our North America financial
accounting systems.
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the first quarter of 2005
was $61.6 million, resulting primarily from the proceeds on the issuance of debentures with an
aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities in first
quarter of 2004 was $75.2 million, due to proceeds from borrowing, net of repayments, of $58.9
million and a $3.1 million net increase in book overdrafts.
In addition, issuances of common stock from our ESPP and stock option exercises generated
$14.6 million and $13.1 million in cash during the first quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Because we are not current in our SEC filings, we are unable to issue freely tradable shares of our
common stock. Consequently, we were unable to make any public offerings of our common stock in 2005
and have not issued shares under our LTIP or the ESPP since early 2005. These sources of financing
will remain unavailable to us until we are again current in our SEC filings. If we are unable to
become current in our SEC filings by April 30, 2007, we may also experience increased withdrawals
by our employees of their accumulated contributions to our ESPP. For more information, see Item
1A, Risk Factors, of the Companys 2005 Form 10-K, included as Exhibit 99.2 filed with this
Quarterly Report.
For additional information on our liquidity and capital resources, see Item 7, Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital
Resources, included in the Companys 2005 Form 10-K.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123
(revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which replaces SFAS No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). SFAS 123R requires all share-based
payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the
financial statements based on their fair values beginning with the first reporting period following
the fiscal year that begins on or after June 15, 2005. The pro forma disclosures previously
permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. We
are required to adopt SFAS 123R in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, beginning January 1, 2006.
Under SFAS 123R, we must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing
share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be
used at date of adoption. The transition methods include modified prospective and modified
retroactive adoption options. Under the modified retroactive option, prior periods may be restated
either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The modified
prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options
and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS 123R, while the
modified retroactive method would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and
restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. In March 2005, Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107) was issued regarding the SECs interpretation of
SFAS 123R and the valuation of share-based payments for public companies. We currently utilize the
Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value for the above pro forma calculations
and will continue using the same methodology in the foreseeable future. We will use the modified
prospective method for adoption of SFAS 123R, and expect that the incremental compensation cost to
be recognized as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R and SAB 107 for fiscal 2006 will range from
$22.0 million to $28.0 million.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 47, Accounting for Conditional
Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47). This is an interpretation of SFAS No. 143, Accounting
for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143), which applies to all entities and addresses the
legal obligations with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the
acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of a long-lived asset. SFAS 143
37
requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized
in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. FIN 47
further clarifies what the term conditional asset retirement obligation means with respect to
recording the asset retirement obligation discussed in SFAS 143. The provisions of FIN 47 are
effective no later than December 31, 2005. The adoption of FIN 47 did not have a material impact on
our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Correctionsa
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS 154). SFAS 154 replaces APB
Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes (APB 20), and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in
Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of
a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires restatement of prior period financial
statements, unless impracticable, for changes in accounting principle. The retroactive application
of a change in accounting principle should be limited to the direct effect of the change. Changes
in depreciation, amortization or depletion methods should be accounted for as a change in
accounting estimate. Corrections of accounting errors will be accounted for under the guidance
contained in APB 20. The effective date of this new pronouncement is for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2005 and prospective application is required. We do not expect the adoption of
SFAS 154 to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). This interpretation clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements in accordance with
SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement
attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken. This
interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. We will be required to adopt this interpretation in the first
quarter of fiscal 2007. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN 48 and has not
yet determined the impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year
Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB
108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies
quantify financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 requires registrants to quantify the impact of
correcting all misstatements using both the rollover method, which focuses primarily on the
impact of a misstatement on the income statement and is the method we currently use, and the iron
curtain method, which focuses primarily on the effect of correcting the period-end balance sheet.
The use of both of these methods is referred to as the dual approach and should be combined with
the evaluation of qualitative elements surrounding the errors in accordance with SAB No. 99,
Materiality (SAB 99). We do not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to have a material impact on our
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS
157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. We are
currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS 157.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires employers to fully
recognize the obligations associated with single-employer defined benefit pension, retiree
healthcare and other postretirement plans in their financial statements. The provisions of SFAS 158
are effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. We are currently
evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS 158.
PART I, ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For a discussion of our market risk associated with the Companys market sensitive financial
instruments as of December 31, 2005, see Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market
Risk in Part II, Item 7A, of the Companys 2005
Form 10-K. During the first
quarter of 2005, there have been no material changes in our market risk exposure.
PART I, ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management
performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer,
an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
38
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Our disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file
or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial
Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation and the
identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as disclosed
in Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2005, management concluded that, as of December 31,
2005 and March 31, 2005, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Because of the material weaknesses identified in our evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting as disclosed in Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2005, we performed
additional procedures so that our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2005, including quarterly periods, are presented in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). Our procedures included, but were
not limited to: i) recalculating North America revenue and related accounts, such as accounts
receivable, unbilled revenue, deferred revenue and costs of service by validating data to
independent source documentation; ii) performing a comprehensive search for unrecorded liabilities;
iii) performing a comprehensive global search to identify the complete population of employees
deployed on expatriate assignments during 2005 and recalculating related compensation expense
classified as costs of service, and employee income tax liabilities; iv) performing additional
closing procedures, including detailed reviews of journal entries, re-performance of account
reconciliations and analyses of balance sheet accounts; and v) performing procedures in areas
related to our income taxes in order to provide reasonable assurance as to the related financial
statement amounts and disclosures.
These and other procedures resulted in the identification of accounting and audit
adjustments related to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005
and our consolidated condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.
We believe that because we performed the substantial additional procedures described
above and made appropriate adjustments, the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for the
periods included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are fairly stated in all material respects
in accordance with GAAP.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have engaged in, and continue to engage in, substantial efforts to address the
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and the ineffectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures. We have established a formal global remediation team, under the
direction of the Chief Financial Officer and Audit Committee, to drive remediation efforts of all
material weaknesses, as well as provide oversight and direction in an effort to establish an
effective control environment. The following paragraphs describe the on-going changes to our
internal control over financial reporting subsequent to December 31, 2005 that materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting:
We significantly strengthened our executive management team, including the appointment
of a GAAP Policy Group (Q4 05), Corporate Tax Director (Q1 06) & Assistant Corporate Tax Director
(Q1 06), General Counsel (Q2 06), Treasurer (Q2 06), Director of Internal Audit (Q2 06), Chief Risk
Officer (Q2 06), Chief Compliance Officer (Q2 06), and Chief Information Officer (Q2 06). We also
hired a Senior Controller within our Public Service line of business (Q1 06). Additionally, we
replaced the regional and certain country-level leaders in our Asia Pacific region.
We have strengthened our ongoing communication by senior management of the importance
of adherence to internal controls and company policies. We established a worldwide policies &
procedures program management office in September 2005. This function is housed within the Office
of the Chief Compliance Officer, as a component of the Companys overall remediation efforts. It is
designed to govern policies and procedures across the Company and to increase employee
understanding of and compliance with policies and procedures. We have established a policy
management methodology. We are also standardizing global policies and developing a library and
supporting technology to provide employees a single access point for all Company policies and
procedures, and we are striving to achieve improved operational efficiencies and compliance with
those established policies and procedures.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2006 we began to implement certain initiatives in
relation to the identification and monitoring of employees working away from their principal
residence for extended periods of time. We commenced planning, designing and implementing new
processes, adding new people, training employees, and building/buying new
39
technology all of which is expected to assist in this initiative. In addition these actions will
allow for the improved accuracy of the related compensation expense and income tax liability
attributable to both the individual employee and the Company.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and continuing into fiscal 2006, we began
implementing a finance transformation program. This program is designed to develop and implement
remediation strategies to address the material weaknesses, improve operational performance of our
finance and accounting processes and underlying information systems, establish greater
organizational accountability and lines of approval, and develop an organizational model that
better supports our redesigned processes and operations. In the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we
began designing and implementing a revised closing procedure. The procedures are designed to
improve the closing process in an effort to allow us to meet our filing requirements on a timely
basis, as well as improve the accuracy of the financial information.
During fiscal 2005, we substantially improved our compliance hotline. Specifically, we
continue to improve our investigative procedures surrounding the detection and resolution of
internal control overrides. Third-party legal and accounting resources have also been retained to
perform in depth reviews of issues in a timely manner. Additionally, remediation activities have
been undertaken in response to senior management and Audit Committee investigations of internal
control overrides.
We continue to dedicate substantial resources (employees and outside accounting
professionals and consultants) to our finance, accounting and tax departments. The number of
resources in this area has substantially increased during the first three quarters of fiscal 2006.
We continue to recognize the changing requirements of our business and the regulatory environment.
We continue to manage the required competencies through staff increases and executive management
involvement in the day to day operations of the Company.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 we began to implement, and throughout fiscal
2006 the Company deployed, a significant Program Control function, currently consisting of
approximately 200 professionals, designed to support the completeness and accuracy of project
accounting details in North America. This function is comprised of individuals with a mix of
experience in accounting, government contracting, auditing, and controlling functions. This
function will actively support the proper and timely evaluation of contracts using comprehensive
revenue recognition guidance checklists with additional support provided by the Companys GAAP
Policy group for complex evaluations. The Program Control function will also support the timely
assembly and review of revenue and other cost elements as part of the Companys quarterly update of
each contracts estimate to complete, estimate at complete, revenue, accounts receivable, unbilled
revenue, and deferred revenue.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company completed the design and
development of an application to automate the comprehensive review of contract and project set-up
data within the accounting system. The application is undergoing user acceptance testing and will
be deployed thereafter. Combined with other process changes, enhanced controls, workflow and
reporting this application will improve the overall accuracy and timely update of contract and
project data in North America.
During fiscal 2005, we provided additional training materials to certain US employees
regarding the estimate to complete process. Our Public Services Business Unit also continues to
conduct government compliance training for all employees including timekeeping certification.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company began to design, develop, and
deploy an application referred to as the Project Control Workbench. Combined with other process
changes, enhanced controls, and reporting, this application will improve the accuracy and
timeliness of submission of project accounting data needed for estimate-to-complete, and revenue
recognition in North America.
In the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we implemented an Engagement Financial Management
Toolkit. This web-based initiative is designed to provide North America employees with key forms,
policies, training, and reference materials to assist in both compliance with standard policies and
procedures.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2006 we implemented on a pilot basis, and will
fully implement in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, an E-Invoicing system for supplier billing in
North America in order to systematically receive supplier
invoices, track, process, and record amounts due to vendors, including subcontractors. The
application will enable the timely recording, tracking, and processing of outstanding supplier
obligations in North America.
40
Management has made significant progress towards achieving an operationally effective
control environment. The remediation efforts noted above are subject to the Companys internal
control assessment, testing and evaluation processes. While these efforts continue, we will rely on
additional substantive procedures and other measures as needed to assist us with meeting the
objectives otherwise fulfilled by an effective control environment. As a result, we expect that our
internal control over financial reporting will not be effective as of December 31, 2006.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the
most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
