DYNAMICS RESEARCH CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)



The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Dynamics Research Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The year end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Unless otherwise noted, dollar amounts are reported in thousands.

In the opinion of management, all material adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented have been reflected. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K/A, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company has reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform with the current period presentation.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The standard amends ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures to require additional disclosures related to transfers between levels in the hierarchy of fair value measurement. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2010. The standard does not change how fair values are measured; accordingly, the standard will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  At June 30, 2010, the Company did not transfer any assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis between Levels 1 and 2, and did not have any transfers into and out of Level 3.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirement .  The standard amends ASC Topic 855 to address certain implementation issues related to an entities requirement to perform and disclose subsequent-event procedures.  The standard requires SEC filers to “evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued” and exempts SEC filers from disclosing the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date and time of the filing of the applicable periodic report with the SEC.  The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  See Note 15 for subsequent events.

NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In the fourth quarter of 2009 the Company entered into a plan to sell Metrigraphics, as management determined that Metrigraphics was not core to the Company’s mission and strategy. At December 31, 2009, Metrigraphics was classified as held for sale and has been presented as a discontinued operation.  As a result the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto were adjusted to reflect the discontinuation of Metrigraphics for all periods presented. 

Effective July 19, 2010, the Company sold Metrigraphics for consideration of $2.5 million, which consisted of $1.75 million in cash and $0.75 million in the form of a subordinated note.  Interest on the subordinated note is payable monthly and the repayment of principal is due in full on July 20, 2012, the maturity date of the subordinated note.  The financial effects have been reflected in the three months ended June 30, 2010.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company wrote-off $11.5 million of fully amortized intangible assets.  The Company recorded amortization expense for its identifiable intangible assets of $0.4 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $0.8 million and $1.9 million for the six months then ended.

At June 30, 2010, estimated future amortization expense for the identifiable intangible assets to be recorded in subsequent fiscal years was as follows:

Remainder of 2010
  $ 771  
2011
  $ 1,188  
2012
  $ 492  
2013
  $ 349  
2014
  $ 299  
2015 and thereafter
  $ 204  

There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax provisions of $1.8 million and $1.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $3.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in the six months then ended.  The effective income tax rate was 37.4% and 42.1% in the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively.  On April 5, 2010, the Company received a tax refund of $0.3 million related to 2003 tax deductions, which was recorded in the first quarter of 2010.  Absent the refund, the Company’s effective tax rate for the first half of 2010 was 40.3%.

As of June 30, 2010 the Company had $0.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $0.2 million would affect its effective tax rate if recognized. Accrued penalties and interest were $0.2 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) had challenged the deferral of income for tax reporting purposes related to unbilled receivables including the applicability of a Letter Ruling issued by the IRS to the Company in January 1976 which granted to the Company deferred tax treatment of the unbilled receivables.  This issue was elevated to the IRS National Office for determination.  On October 23, 2008, the Company received a notification of ruling from the IRS National Office.  This ruling provided clarification regarding the IRS position relating to revenue recognition for tax purposes regarding its unbilled receivables.  During September 2009, the IRS completed its examination of the Company’s tax returns for 2004 through 2007 and issued a Revenue Agent Report (“RAR”), which reduced the deferral of income for tax reporting purposes.  As a result the Company reclassified approximately $1.0 million from deferred to current taxes payable.  The RAR also included an assessment of interest of $0.5 million. The Company has filed a protest letter with the IRS to appeal the assessment.  The Company believes the appeal will be successful and has made no provision for the interest associated with the assessment.

NOTE 7. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company’s outstanding debt at June 30, 2010 was $26.0 million which consisted of borrowings under a term loan.  The interest rate on the term loan outstanding balance at June 30, 2010 was 2.29% based on the 90-day LIBOR rate option that was in effect on June 30, 2010.  The outstanding debt at December 31, 2009 was $32.0 million which consisted of an outstanding balance of $30.0 million under the term loan and $2.0 million of net borrowings under a revolver.  The repayment of borrowings under the revolver is contractually due on August 1, 2013; however, the Company may repay at any time prior to that date.   At June 30, 2010, the remaining available balance to borrow against the revolver was $24.6 million.

At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenants.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for these items, as well as the general classification of such items:

Investments Held in Rabbi Trusts – The investments include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds. Fair values for these investments were based on quoted prices in active markets and were therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swap – The derivative is a receive-variable, pay-fixed interest rate swap based on the LIBOR rate and is designated as a fair value hedge. Fair value was based on a model-driven valuation using the LIBOR rate, which was observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the swap. Therefore, our interest rate swap was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of other cash and cash equivalents, contract receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.  The carrying value of debt also approximates fair value because the interest rate is variable.

Exercisable at June 30, 2010
    511,693     $ 9.82       1.1     $ 554  

As of June 30, 2010 the total unrecognized compensation related to stock option awards was $0.2 million to be recognized over 2.8 years.

The fair value of share-based awards for employee stock option awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model.  The following weighted average assumptions were used to calculate the per share fair value of $6.47 for stock options issued during 2010:  risk-free rate of 2.6%; dividend yield of zero; volatility of 48.2%; and expected life of 6 years.

The Company selected the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following criteria:

Risk-free interest rate.   The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on implied yields available on a U.S. Treasury note with a maturity term equal to or approximating the expected term of the underlying award.

Dividend yield.   The Company does not intend to pay dividends on its common stock for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, uses a dividend yield of zero.

Volatility.   The expected volatility of the Company’s shares was estimated based upon the historical volatility of the Company’s share price with consideration given to the expected life of the award.

Expected life .  The expected term was estimated based upon exercise experience made in the past to employees.

Cash proceeds received, the intrinsic value and the total tax benefits realized resulting from stock option exercises were as follows:

The total fair value of restricted shares vested during both three months periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $0.2 million, and $0.6 million during both six months periods then ended. As of June 30, 2010, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was $0.9 million, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted-average period of 2 years.

NOTE 12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Unexercised stock options and unvested restricted shares are excluded from this calculation but are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method so long as their effect is not anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, diluted earnings per share are determined by using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  Due to the anti-dilutive effect, approximately 92,000 and 570,700 options to purchase common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and 92,000 and 651,400, respectively, options for the six months then ended.

NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As a defense contractor, the Company is subject to many levels of audit and review from various government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, various inspectors general, the Defense Criminal Investigation Service, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice and Congressional Committees. Both related to and unrelated to its defense industry involvement, the Company is, from time to time, involved in audits, lawsuits, claims, administrative proceedings and investigations. The Company accrues for liabilities associated with these activities when it becomes probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Except as noted below, the Company does not presently believe it is reasonably likely that any of these matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s evaluation of the likelihood of expenditures related to these matters is subject to change in future periods, depending on then current events and circumstances, which could have material adverse effects on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On June 28, 2005, a class action employee suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and certain provisions of Massachusetts General Laws. In July 2010, the Company and the plaintiff agreed upon principle terms of settlement, the cost of which was accrued on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 and negatively impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.03 in the second quarter of 2010.
 
NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective July 19, 2010, the Company sold Metrigraphics for consideration of $2.5 million, which consisted of $1.75 million in cash and $0.75 million in the form of a subordinated note.  Interest on the subordinated note is payable monthly and the repayment of principal is due in full on July 20, 2012, the maturity date of the subordinated note.  The financial effects have been reflected in the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
In July 2010, the Company and the plaintiff for a class action employee suit agreed upon principle terms of settlement, the cost of which was accrued on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 and negatively impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.03 in the second quarter of 2010.


 
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on April 12, 2010.

Some of the statements in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding future events and the future results of DRC that are based on our current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industries in which DRC operates and the beliefs and assumptions of the management of DRC.  Words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “projects”, “may”, “will”, “should”, and other similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements.  Such statements are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results.  Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

 
·
Our dependency on the Federal government and changes in federal spending priorities;
 
·
Failure to obtain new government contracts or retain existing contracts;
 
·
The effect of Federal government in-sourcing on our business;
 
·
The loss of skilled personnel;
 
·
The risk of security breaches in systems we develop, install or maintain;
 
·

OVERVIEW

Business

Dynamics Research Corporation, headquartered in Andover, Massachusetts, is a leading provider of innovative management consulting, engineering, technical and information technology (“IT”) services and solutions to federal and state governments.  We provide support to our customers in the primary mission areas of IT, logistics and readiness, cybersecurity and information assurance, homeland security, health care, and intelligence and space.

Effective July 19, 2010, DRC sold Metrigraphics for consideration of $2.5 million, which consisted of $1.75 million in cash and $0.75 million in the form of a subordinated note.  In connection with this transaction, we recorded an immaterial loss from the sale in the second quarter of 2010.
 
Industry

We are cognizant of funding challenges and changing priorities of the federal government.  TechAmerica, a leading trade association in the industry, estimates that the total federal IT budget will grow at 3.1% annually over the next five years, down from the 4.9% in the prior five years, from $77.8 billion to $90.7 billion.

Customers have moved away from using General Services Administration schedule contracts in favor of agency-wide multiple-award indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity multi-year contract vehicles.  Over the past several years, we have won or acquired many of these contracts including the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) EAGLE and Program Management Support Services (“PMSS”) management and IT services contracts, the military health care TRICARE Evaluation, Analysis, and Management Support, or TEAMS, contract, the Air Force Design and Engineering Support Program (“DESP”) II engineering services contract, the Department of Defense-wide Logistics Management Support Services logistics services contract, the Office of Personnel Management Training and Management Assistance contract, and the Alliant government-wide contract.  This year, for three of the contracts, the DHS EAGLE and PMSS contracts and the Air Force DESP II contract, the government has or is expected to solicit proposals for follow-on multi-year multiple award ID/IQ contracts with the award of new contracts anticipated to be made in 2011.

In recent years, there has been an increase in the portion of contracts issued on a fixed price basis, compared with time and materials or cost-plus, in an effort to reduce the risk to the government of cost overruns.  We believe our contract cost management capabilities are strong and view this trend as favorable to the Company.  The amount of our revenue derived from fixed price contracts in the first half of 2010 was 45%, up from 37% in the same period in 2009.

The federal government also has set as a high priority and is initiating programs focused on strengthening the government workforce with particular emphasis on personnel responsible for acquisition, such as acquiring products and services for the government.  The government has set targets for adding to the government workforce with some of these positions coming from a reduction in the number of contractor positions supporting the government, known as in-sourcing.  We have experienced a reduction in billable positions and revenue from in-sourcing and related government cost reduction actions and anticipate continuation of these initiatives through 2010 and into 2011.

Outlook
 
Our business is conducted primarily with U.S. Government customers under both short-term and long-term contracts.  We have aligned our service offerings to current economic conditions and customer needs. The U.S. Government’s budgetary processes give us good visibility regarding future spending and the threat areas that they are addressing. Management believes that our current contracts, and backlog of previously awarded contracts, are well aligned with the direction of our customers’ future needs, and this provides us with good insight regarding future cash flows. Since 2007, we recorded improved operating results absent the effect of the provision for litigation which, when included, resulted in a net loss for 2008.  Nonetheless, management recognizes that the current economic situation and significant changes in priorities under the new administration likely will result in significant changes in federal spending with increases in some areas and decreases in others.  While we may benefit from the increases, certain programs in which we participate may be subject to reductions.

Revenues

We reported total revenue of $65.3 million and $68.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total revenues for the second quarter of 2010 represent a decrease of $2.8 million, or 4.1%, from the same period in 2009.  Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $133.9 million and $135.3 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 1.1%.

Revenues were earned from the following sectors:

Federal revenue included $0.4 million and $1.1 million of revenue derived from 8(a) contracts received with the Kadix acquisition in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $0.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively, for the first half then ended.  Absent the effect of 8(a) contract expirations, federal revenue grew by 3.4% in the first half of 2010 over the comparable periods in 2009.  In the first six months of 2010 we lost 44 billable positions to the government’s in-sourcing and related cost reduction initiatives reducing revenues.  We anticipate these initiatives will continue through 2010 and into 2011.  In all, we estimate in-sourcing effects for the year could approach 80 to 100 positions with a $14 to $16 million effect in annualized revenues.

Revenues from state and local government agencies declined in the second quarter and first half of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 primarily due to our child welfare system contract with the State of Tennessee.  As our Tennessee contract nears completion, revenues were $2.0 million and $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $4.4 million and $7.6 million, respectively, for the first half then ended.

Backlog:

Unfunded
    211.7       276.0  
Total
  $ 362.3     $ 434.5  

Funded bookings were $52.9 million and $73.7 million in the three-month periods ending June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and generated a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 0.8 to 1 and 1.1 to 1, respectively.  The ending funded backlog as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 covered approximately 6.9 and 7.2 months of revenue, respectively. We expect that substantially all of our funded backlog at June 30, 2010 will generate revenue during the subsequent twelve month period. The funded backlog generally is subject to possible termination at the convenience of the contracting party. Contracts are generally funded on an annual basis or incrementally for shorter time periods.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit was $10.2 million and $11.1 million for the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, resulting in a gross margin of 15.6% and 16.3%, respectively.  For the first half of 2010 and 2009, gross profit was $21.0 million and $22.4 million, respectively, resulting in a gross margin of 15.6% and 16.5%, respectively.  The decrease in gross profit margin was a result of lower direct labor content of revenue resulting from government in-sourcing and was partially offset by indirect cost efficiencies.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.1 million and $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $11.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively, in the first half then ended. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of total revenue in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009 were 7.8% and 9.1%, respectively, and 8.2% and 9.3% in the first half then ended. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2010 was due to lower facility costs, legal fees and deferred compensation credit.

Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization expense was $0.4 million and $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $0.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in the first half then ended.  The decrease in amortization expense primarily relates to the intangible assets acquired from our 2004 acquisition of Impact Innovations which fully amortized in the third quarter of 2009. The remaining amortization expense for the current fiscal year is expected to be approximately $0.8 million.



Interest expense, net

Net interest expense was $0.4 million and $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the first half then ended. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower debt levels and interest rates during 2010.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense) consists of our portion of earnings in HMR Tech, gains and losses realized from our deferred compensation plan and results from other non-operating transactions, all of which were immaterial to our results.

Income tax provision (benefit)

We recorded income tax provisions of $1.8 million and $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $3.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively, for the first half then ended.  The effective income tax rate was 37.4% and 42.1% in the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively.  On April 5, 2010, we received a tax refund of $0.3 million related to 2003 tax deductions, which we recorded in the first quarter of 2010.  Absent the refund, our effective tax rate for the first half of 2010 was 40.3%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following discussion analyzes liquidity and capital resources by operating, investing and financing activities as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2010, the borrowing capacity available under our revolver was $24.6 million.

Our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition are subject to trends, events and uncertainties, including demands for capital to support growth, economic conditions, government payment practices and contractual matters. Our need for access to funds is dependent on future operating results, our growth and acquisition activity and external conditions.

We have evaluated our future liquidity needs, both from a short-term and long-term basis.  We believe we have sufficient funds to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for the short term. Cash on hand plus cash generated from operations along with cash available under credit lines are expected to be sufficient in 2010 to service debt, finance capital expenditures, pay federal and state income taxes and fund the pension plan, if necessary. To provide for long-term liquidity, we believe we can generate substantial positive cash flow, as well as obtain additional capital, if necessary, from the use of subordinated debt or equity. In the event that our current capital resources are not sufficient to fund requirements, we believe our access to additional capital resources would be sufficient to meet our needs.

We believe that selective acquisitions are an important component of our growth strategy. We may acquire, from time to time, businesses or contracts that are aligned with our core capabilities and which complement our customer base. We will continue to consider acquisition opportunities that align with our strategic objectives, along with the possibility of utilizing the credit facility as a source of financing.

At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents aggregating $7.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Our operating practice is to apply cash received against any outstanding revolving credit facility balances, when a revolver balance exists.  Cash balances at the end of the period generally reflect the timing and size of cash receipts at the end of the period.



Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled $15.1 million in the first half of 2010 compared to $8.5 million in the first half of 2009. The cash provided by operating activities in the first half of 2010 was primarily attributable to the collections of contracts receivables and net earnings realized.

Contract receivables were $61.9 million at June 30, 2010, or 85 days sales outstanding (“DSO”), compared to $72.6 million, or 99 days at December 31, 2009. Billed receivables decreased $5.5 million and unbilled receivables decreased $5.0 million in the first half of 2010.  Federal business DSO, which excludes the effect of our state contracts, was 65 days at June 30, 2010 compared to 73 days at December 31, 2009.  The states of Ohio and Tennessee had a combined contract receivable balance outstanding of $13.5 million and $19.9 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.  In the first half of 2010, we received $10.8 million in payments from the State of Tennessee.  We anticipate receipts of an additional $12 million from the State of Tennessee in the second half of 2010.

Our net deferred tax liability was $0.5 million and $2.8 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.  The decrease in the deferred tax liability was due to a decline in unbilled receivable related to our contract with the State of Tennessee.  We paid $5.9 million in income taxes, net of a $0.3 million refund, in the first half of 2010.  In July 2010, we received $3.0 million from a federal net operating loss carryback claim.  Currently we anticipate additional income tax payments of $7.8 million in the last half of 2010.

The IRS had challenged the deferral of income for tax reporting purposes related to unbilled receivables including the applicability of a Letter Ruling issued by the IRS to DRC in January 1976 which granted us deferred tax treatment of the unbilled receivables.  This issue was elevated to the IRS National Office for determination.  On October 23, 2008, we received a notification of ruling from the IRS National Office.  This ruling provided clarification regarding the IRS position relating to revenue recognition for tax purposes regarding our unbilled receivables.  During September 2009, the IRS completed its examination of our tax returns for 2004 through 2007 and issued a Revenue Agent Report, which reduced the deferral of income for tax reporting purposes.  As a result we reclassified approximately $1.0 million from deferred to current taxes payable.  The IRS report also included an assessment of interest of $0.5 million. We have filed a protest with the IRS to appeal the assessment.  We believe the appeal will be successful and have therefore made no provision for the interest associated with the assessment.

Share-based compensation was $0.4 million in the first half of both 2010 and 2009.  As of June 30, 2010 the total unrecognized compensation related to restricted stock and stock option awards was $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively, to be recognized over 2 years and 2.8 years, respectively.

Non-cash amortization expense of our acquired intangible assets was $0.8 million and $1.9 million in the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively.  We anticipate that non-cash expense for the amortization of intangible assets will remain at a comparable level for the last half of 2010.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $3.2 million and $4.8 million in the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The net cash used in 2010 primarily comprised of capital expenditures of $3.6 million.  The net cash used in 2009 primarily consisted of additional consideration paid of $4.3 million as part of the Kadix acquisition and capital expenditures of $0.8 million.  For 2010, we expect capital expenditures to be similar to 2009 levels.

Financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $4.9 million and $3.7 million in the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The amount of cash used in both periods included payments under our term loan of $4.0 million.  During the first half of 2010, we also made net repayments on our revolver of an additional $2.0 million.

The average daily borrowing on our revolver for the first half of 2010 and 2009 was $2.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, at an interest rate of 3.25% for both periods.  The average outstanding balance of combined


term loan and swap agreement during the first half of 2010 and 2009 was $29.0 million and $37.0 million, respectively, at an average interest rate of 3.94% and 4.41%, respectively.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

A description of recent accounting pronouncements are referenced in Note 2 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


We are subject to interest rate risk associated with our term loan and revolver, where interest payments are tied to either the LIBOR or prime rate.  The interest rate at June 30, 2010 on our $26 million term loan outstanding was 3.95%. The interest rate on our swap agreement effectively fixes the interest rate on half of our outstanding term loan at 5.60%, which includes the current applicable margin of 2.00%. At any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have an adverse effect on net interest expense as reported in our consolidated statements of operations. Our potential loss over one year that would result in a hypothetical and instantaneous increase of one full percentage point in the interest rate on half of our term loan would increase annual interest expense by approximately $0.1 million.

In addition, historically our investment positions have been relatively small and short-term in nature.  We typically invest excess cash in money market accounts with original maturities of three months or less with no exposure to market interest rates. We have no significant exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. Foreign sales, which are nominal, are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars.


The Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”) evaluated, together with other members of senior management, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2010; and, based on this review, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by it in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the quarterly period ended June 30, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.



PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


As a defense contractor, we are subject to many levels of audit and review from various government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, various inspectors general, the Defense Criminal Investigation Service, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice and Congressional Committees. Both related to and unrelated to our defense industry involvement, we are, from time to time, involved in audits, lawsuits, claims, administrative proceedings and investigations. We accrue for liabilities associated with these activities when it becomes probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Our evaluation of the likelihood of expenditures related to these matters is subject to change in future periods, depending on then current events and circumstances, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
 
On June 28, 2005, a class action employee suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and certain provisions of Massachusetts General Laws. In July 2010, the Company and the plaintiff agreed upon principle terms of settlement, the cost of which was accrued on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 and negatively impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.03 in the second quarter of 2010.
 

For information regarding factors that could affect our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, refer to the section titled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2009 Form 10-K/A. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K/A.
