CIBER, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 

(1)  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of CIBER, Inc. and subsidiaries (together, “CIBER,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  These consolidated financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.  The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full fiscal year.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“the FSP”).  The FSP requires that the proceeds from the issuance of certain convertible debt instruments be allocated between a liability component (issued at a discount) and an equity component.  The resulting debt discount would be amortized over the period the convertible debt is expected to be outstanding as additional non-cash interest expense.  The FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, will not permit early application, and will require retrospective application to all periods presented.  This FSP changes the accounting treatment for our Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures (“Debentures”).  Although we anticipate that most or all of our remaining Debentures will be required to be repurchased prior to the adoption of this FSP on January 1, 2009, our financial statements covering past periods (including the current fiscal year) will be impacted as a result of the required retrospective application.  Financial statements for future periods may also be impacted to the extent that any of the Debentures remain outstanding on January 1, 2009.  We are currently evaluating the impact of the FSP on our consolidated financial statements.

(3) Acquisitions

 

On April 15, 2008, our Europe division acquired a Norwegian SAP consultancy for a total purchase price of approximately $6.5 million.  The results of the acquired operation have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.  Approximately $4.8 million was paid during the current period and approximately $1.7 million is expected to be paid in the future.  In connection with the acquisition, we recorded goodwill of approximately $5.5 million and acquired other assets of $1.0 million.

 

Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2008, we purchased a minority shareholders’ interest in one of our European subsidiaries for a purchase price of approximately $2.8 million.

 

(4) Goodwill

 

Our goodwill is assigned to individual segments or divisions and is reviewed for possible impairment at least annually, or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that a division’s carrying amount is greater than its fair value.  As of June 30, 2008, we performed our annual impairment review by reporting units, which are the same as our business divisions, and determined that there was no impairment.

(5) Borrowings

 

Revolving Credit Facility — On February 11, 2008, we entered into a $200 million senior secured reducing revolving credit facility, with several financial institutions as lenders and Wells Fargo as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).  The Revolving Credit Facility replaced our previous $60 million bank line of credit and refinanced all amounts outstanding thereunder.  The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of our assets.  Beginning on March 31, 2009, and continuing through December 31, 2010, the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will be reduced by $7.5 million each quarter end.  The Revolving Credit Facility matures on February 11, 2011, at which time the remaining $140 million of maximum credit available will terminate and all outstanding balances must be repaid in full.

 

At our election, our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at rates calculated in reference to either the Wells Fargo prime lending rate (“prime”) plus a margin that ranges from 0.00% to 0.25%, or a London interbank offered market rate (“LIBOR”) for one to six month maturities, plus a margin that ranges from 0.75% to 1.75%.  At June 30, 2008, our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding borrowings was 4.64%.  We are also required to pay a fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility that ranges from 0.20% to 0.50%.  For so long as our Debentures remain outstanding, we will also incur a facility fee of 0.15% on the entire amount of the commitment.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, including a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, a maximum senior leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum liquidity percentage.  We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of June 30, 2008.  The terms of the Revolving Credit Facility include, among other provisions, specific limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, stock repurchases, investments, guarantees, mergers, dispositions and acquisitions, and a prohibition on the payment of any dividends.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of letters of credit and any outstanding letters of credit reduce the maximum available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.  At June 30, 2008, we had approximately $1.0 million of outstanding letters of credit and borrowings of $106.8 million, leaving approximately $92.2 million of remaining borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures — In a private placement on December 2, 2003, we issued $175.0 million of 2.875% Debentures due to mature in December 2023.  The Debentures are general unsecured obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to all of our indebtedness and other liabilities.  Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year.  As of June 30, 2008, we had repurchased and retired $94.0 million of our Debentures, leaving $81.0 million outstanding at June 30, 2008.  We paid $68.8 million for repurchases completed during the six months ended June 30, 2008, resulting in a gain, net of accelerated debt issuance costs, of $1.9 million.

 

The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 73.3138 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $13.64 per share, subject to adjustments, prior to the close of business on the final maturity date only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter if the closing sale price of our common stock exceeds 120% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter; (2) during the five business days after any ten consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures for each day of such period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of our common stock and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of $1,000 principal amount of the Debentures; (3) if the Debentures have been called for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate transactions.  The conversion price is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.  In 2005, we made an irrevocable election to settle in cash and not in shares 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures surrendered for conversion.  As a result, upon conversion we will deliver cash in lieu of our common stock.

 

Debenture holders may also require us to repurchase their Debentures on December 15, 2008, 2010, 2013 and 2018, or at any time prior to their maturity in the case of certain events, at a repurchase price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest.  From December 20, 2008, to but not including December 15, 2010, we may redeem any of the Debentures if the closing price of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in any 30 consecutive trading day period.  Beginning December 15, 2010, we may, by providing at least

 

9



Table of Contents

 

30-days’ notice to the holders, redeem any of the Debentures at a redemption price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest.  Given our current stock price and market interest rates, we expect that we will be required to repurchase most or all of the remaining Debentures on December 15, 2008.  As such, the Debentures would generally be considered to be a current liability instead of a long-term liability.  However, we have the intent and ability to use borrowings under our new Revolving Credit Facility (discussed above) that matures on February 11, 2011, for any Debenture repurchases as they occur up to and including December 15, 2008.  Since the new Revolving Credit Facility is long-term, we have continued to classify our Debentures as a long-term liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

(6) Financial Instruments

 

On January 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” for our financial assets and liabilities.  There was no material impact to our consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

Net Investment Hedges — Periodically, we enter into cross-currency swap arrangements with a financial institution to partially hedge the net assets of certain foreign operations (“net investment hedges”) and offset the foreign currency translation and economic exposures related to our investments in these foreign operations.  We consider the net investment hedges to be effective hedges with gains/losses recorded as part of shareholders’ equity.  Increases and decreases in the net investment in our subsidiaries due to foreign exchange volatility will be partially offset by foreign exchange losses and gains from the net investment hedge, both of which are recorded within “accumulated other comprehensive income” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

At June 30, 2008, we had net investment hedges in Euros with a notional amount of $76.0 million and a weighted average exchange rate of 0.7238 Euros for each U.S. dollar.  The fair value of our Euro hedges was a loss of $10.7 million at June 30, 2008.  The fair values of our net investment hedges are determined using observable market inputs.  The hedges mature at varying dates up to September 2009.

 

(7) Shareholder’s Equity

 

Repurchase Program — CIBER has had a common stock share repurchase program since 1999 that has been amended from time to time by our Board of Directors to increase the authorized shares available for repurchase.  Under the most recent authorization in February 2008, the Board approved an additional $10.0 million dollars for future repurchases of our common stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we repurchased 1.1 million shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $5.8 million.  At June 30, 2008, there was approximately $7.8 million remaining for future repurchases under this program.

Revenue.  Total revenue increased 19% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007, which was due to considerable growth in our Europe and U.S. Commercial divisions.  Additionally, as a global company, our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies and may be significantly affected by currency exchange-rate fluctuations.  The U.S. dollar was considerably weaker during the second quarter of 2008 against many currencies as compared to the same period of the prior year, resulting in favorable currency translation and greater reported U.S. dollar revenues in the current period.  Foreign currency rate changes resulted in approximately $14.5 million, or 5%, of additional reported revenue in 2008 over 2007.  Additionally, small acquisitions completed in both our Enterprise Solutions and Europe divisions in the past 10 months contributed incremental revenue of approximately $6.0 million, or 2%, to the current period results.

·                  U.S. Commercial revenue increased over 12%, its highest rate of growth since 1999, compared to the same period of the prior year mainly due to several recent sizable contract wins, additional work on other existing contracts and improved productivity.  In 2008, we continue to strategize and build upon the initiatives and investments of 2007 to further our goal of gaining market share.

 

·                  Europe posted revenue resulting in another record quarter for this division, with its largest revenue quarter ever historically, as a follow up to the record-breaking first quarter of 2008.  These results were in part due

Table of Contents

 

to approximately $14.5 million related to favorable foreign currency fluctuations, as well as approximately $2.5 million of incremental revenue from several small acquisitions.  Excluding these items, our Europe division grew approximately 30% resulting from continued strong sales of SAP implementation services in almost all of our major operating territories, as well as many of our smaller territories.  Additionally, the Europe division had a significant hardware sale during the current quarter.  If the U.S. dollar were to strengthen against the Euro and the British Pound later this year, we would expect the current high level of growth in this division to be adversely impacted to some degree.

 

·                  State & Local Government revenue increased primarily due to increased volume with one of our largest clients.

 

·                  As compared to the same quarter of the prior year, Federal revenue declined mainly due to the expiration of one of our larger, long-term contracts that was subsequently awarded to a qualified small business.  CIBER has similarly lost several contracts in recent years because we do not qualify as a small business; therefore, we have been precluded from bidding on the renewal business.  We originally obtained these contracts through acquisitions of qualified small businesses that were originally awarded these contracts.  Additionally, we have been unsuccessful in replacing these expired contracts due in part, to a difficult governmental spending environment, illustrated by funding delays for IT initiatives.  Additionally, the Federal division continues to focus on obtaining appropriate government certifications that allow us to bid on large projects as a prime contractor.  This process, which started in mid-2007, ultimately will entail the approval of twelve different business systems.  Thus far in 2008, we have received certification related to two of our twelve business systems and another audit is scheduled for the second half of 2008.  We believe these certifications will increase our growth opportunities as we will be able to compete for additional large government contracts.

 

·                  Revenue in our Enterprise Solutions division was relatively flat between the comparative quarters, related to improvements in consulting services revenues offset by a decrease in our Technology Solutions group.  Some of the improved consulting services revenue is due to incremental revenue from an acquisition completed in September 2007, but our Oracle group also showed improved results.  For our Technology Solutions group, which receives commissions on the sale of IBM products, sales were slower than the same period of the prior year, and the prior year’s comparative quarter represented one of our best ever for this group.  We believe this continued slowness is due to a combination of IBM product life-cycle issues, as well as economic-related issues.

 

Gross Profit.  Gross profit margin on services revenue improved 90 basis points primarily due to a strong improvement in our U.S. Commercial division related to the pursuit of higher-margin business and improved productivity, as well as a slight increase in Europe’s gross profit margin on services, related to increased productivity.  Our U.S. Commercial and Europe divisions are our largest segments; therefore, changes in their margins tend to greatly dictate our consolidated margin results.  Additionally, our Enterprise Solutions division had several large projects that were completed or nearing completion during the current quarter, which precluded further expansion of its services margin.  Gross profit margin on other revenue incurred a considerable decline to 28.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from 47.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as decreased product commissions, coupled with increased sales of lower-margin hardware products contributed to the reduction of the blended gross margin percentage.  We have also seen our domestic and European margins squeezed by software manufacturers.  Overall, the above resulted in a 30 basis point decrease in total gross profit to 27.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 27.7% for the same period in 2007.

 

Selling, general and administrative.  As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses decreased 30 basis points to 21.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 21.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2007.  The key driver during the current quarter was Europe’s ability to reduce their SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue while experiencing significant revenue growth.  Europe’s efforts were partially offset by increased SG&A costs in our Federal division related to infrastructure investments made to further our ability to bid on large projects as a prime contractor and by increased SG&A costs in our Enterprise Solutions division for infrastructure costs from a small acquisition completed in September 2007 and increased costs related to sales and recruiting during the current period.

Operating income.  There was no change in operating income as a percentage of revenue for the current three months as compared to the same period of the prior year due to the 30 basis point decrease in overall gross profit offset by the 30 basis point improvement in SG&A costs as a percentage of revenue.

*Divisions calculated as a % of division revenue, all other calculated as a % of total revenue.

 

·                  The U.S. Commercial division’s operating income percentage increased mainly due to the improvement in gross profit margin on services revenue, with a modest reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue, as well.

 

·                  Europe operating income improved primarily due to a reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue that was achieved by keeping SG&A costs down in a time of significant revenue growth.  The improvement in SG&A as a percentage of revenue was partially offset by the gross profit margin decrease on other revenue mentioned above.

 

·                  The State & Local Government division’s operating income percentage decreased 20 basis points as an improvement in consulting services gross margin was outweighed by increased SG&A expenses due to salaries related to delivery infrastructure enhancements and increased recruiting costs.

 

·                  Federal operating income decreased because increased SG&A expenses in the current period for operations infrastructure enhancements related to obtaining certifications for prime contractor bidding status more than offset the improvement in this division’s consulting services margins.

 

·                  Enterprise Solution’s operating income was essentially eliminated in the current quarter due to several projects that were nearing completion, combined with slower hardware sales and increased SG&A costs.

 

·                  As a percentage of revenue corporate expenses were flat between the periods, but the actual dollars expensed during the current quarter were higher as a result of increases in the bad debt provision and various employee-related costs.

 

Interest expense.  Interest expense increased $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007, primarily resulting from higher-cost borrowings under our new senior secured reducing revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) that have been utilized to fund the recent repurchases of our lower-cost convertible senior subordinated debentures (“Debentures”).

 

Other expense, net.  Other expense, net was $164,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to other expense, net of $301,000 for the similar period in 2007.  The improvement was primarily due to a $200,000 gain on the retirement of our Debentures in the current quarter.

 

Income taxes.  Our effective tax rate was 38.5% for both three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.  Our 2008 domestic tax rate has been negatively impacted by the expiration of the U.S. Federal Research and

Experimentation tax credit on December 31, 2007.  However, for the current quarter, Europe contributed more than half of our total net income before taxes, as compared to 25% during the same period of the prior year which, due to lower statutory rates in several of our European territories, as well as current period profitability in several previously unprofitable countries, has managed to effectively offset the negative impact from the loss of the R&E credit.  Although we expect the lower European tax rate to continue throughout 2008, actual results could vary if the mix of profit shifts between countries.

Revenue.  Total revenue increased 16% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007.  As a global company, our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies and may be significantly affected by currency exchange-rate fluctuations.  The U.S. dollar further weakened in the first half of 2008 against many currencies, resulting in favorable currency translation and greater reported U.S. dollar revenues.  Foreign currency rate changes resulted in approximately $26.7 million, or 5%, of additional reported revenue in 2008 over 2007.  Additionally, small acquisitions completed in both our Enterprise Solutions and Europe divisions in the past 10 months contributed incremental revenue of approximately $12.0 million, or 2%, to the current six month results. Excluding the favorable currency translation effects and the incremental revenue from acquisitions, our total revenue increased 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to increased SAP software-related services in Europe, as well as increased consulting services revenue in our U.S. Commercial division.

·                  As mentioned in the three month discussion above, U.S. Commercial revenue increased over the same period of the prior year mainly due to several sizable contract wins, additional work on other existing contracts and improved productivity.

 

·                  Europe’s first two quarters of 2008 have represented its largest revenue quarters ever historically.  These results were in part due to approximately $26.7 million related to favorable foreign currency fluctuations, as well as approximately $4.5 million of incremental revenue from several small acquisitions in late 2007 and the first half of 2008.  Excluding these items, our Europe division grew approximately 25% resulting from continued strong sales of SAP implementation services in almost all of our major operating territories, as well as many of our smaller territories.

 

·                  State & Local Government revenue growth was driven by increased volumes at one of our largest clients, as well as additional revenue from several new project starts during the first half of 2008.

 

·                  As previously mentioned in our three month comparative discussion, Federal revenue declined due to the expiration of one of our larger, long-term contracts that was subsequently awarded to a qualified small business.  On a positive note, Federal revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2008, did improve over the three months ended March 31, 2008, and we believe that a growing pipeline for our harbor security product, as well as our efforts to obtain prime-contractor bidding status, will open up additional opportunities.

 

·                  Most of the revenue growth in our Enterprise Solutions division was related to incremental revenue from an acquisition completed in September 2007.  Additionally, our commissions on the sale of IBM products have been slower in the first half of the current year as compared to the same period of the prior year.

 

Gross Profit.  In total, our gross profit margin improved 10 basis points to 27.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 27.4% for the same period in 2007.  Gross profit margin on consulting services revenue, which grew by 70 basis points, accounted for most of the increase.  Strong consulting services margin improvements in our U.S. Commercial, State & Local Government and Federal divisions were responsible.  An increased focus on pursuing higher-margin business, project pricing and improving delivery has helped to achieve these results.  Europe experienced a decrease in its services gross profit margin in the current six months as did Enterprise Solutions, with Enterprise Solutions’ decrease related to several large projects that were completed or nearing completion during the first half of 2008.  Current year margins on other revenue have declined significantly to 32.3% from 41.3% for the same period of the prior year related to profit margins being squeezed by software manufacturers.  Our U.S. Commercial and Europe divisions are our largest segments; therefore, changes in their margins tend to greatly dictate our consolidated margin results and for the six months ended June 30, 2008, margin gains in our U.S. Commercial division were offset by Europe’s gross margin decreases in both services and other revenue, essentially holding total gross profit margin consistent with the prior year.

 

Selling, general and administrative.  As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses increased 10 basis points to 21.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 21.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.  A significant reduction in this percentage in Europe as mentioned in the three month discussion above, was more than offset by increases in our Federal and Enterprise Solutions divisions related to investments made to secure prime contractor bidding status and infrastructure costs associated with a small acquisition completed in September 2007, respectively.

 

Operating income.  Operating income improved 10 basis points to 5.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 5.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

*Divisions calculated as a % of division revenue, all other calculated as a % of total revenue.

 

·                  The U.S. Commercial division’s operating income percentage increased due to the improvement in gross profit margin on services revenue, while holding SG&A expenses to only a slight increase as a percentage of revenue.

 

·                  Europe operating income improved primarily due to a reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue that was attained from operating leverage achieved on higher revenue volumes.  The improvement in SG&A as a percentage of revenue was partially offset by decreased gross profit margins on both consulting services and other revenue.

 

·                  State & Local Government operating income decreased due to reduced profitability on certain fixed-price projects that are nearing completion, which was mostly incurred during the first quarter of 2008 as the second quarter operating income percentage was an improvement over the first quarter.  Additionally, increased SG&A costs related to salaries for delivery infrastructure enhancements and increased recruiting costs contributed to the decreased operating income.

 

·                  Federal operating income decreased because increased SG&A expenses for operations infrastructure enhancements related to obtaining certifications for prime contractor bidding status more than offset the improvement in this division’s consulting services margins.

 

·                  Enterprise Solutions operating income declined related to several large SAP projects that were completed or nearing completion by the end of the current period, slower hardware sales and reduced margins on remaining other revenue sales, combined with increased SG&A costs.

 

·                  Corporate expenses were higher as a result of increases in the bad debt provision and various employee-related costs although, as a percentage of revenue, corporate expenses actually declined slightly during the current six month period.

 

Interest expense.  Interest expense increased $1.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily resulting from higher-cost borrowings under our new Revolving Credit Facility that have been utilized to fund the recent repurchases of our lower-cost Debentures.

 

Other expense, net.  Other expense, net was $974,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to other expense, net of $661,000 for the similar period in 2007.  In the current six months, net foreign exchange losses were almost entirely offset by a net gain on the retirement of our Debentures, leaving increased minority interest expense between the comparable periods as the remaining change in other expense.

 

Income taxes.  Our effective tax rates were 38.7% and 38.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Our 2008 domestic tax rate has been negatively impacted by the expiration of the U.S. Federal Research and Experimentation tax credit on December 31, 2007.  However, for the current six months, Europe

contributed approximately half of our total net income before taxes, as compared to 25% during the same period of the prior year, which due to lower statutory rates in several of our European territories, as well as current period profitability in several previously unprofitable countries, has helped to partially offset the negative impact from the loss of the R&E credit.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At June 30, 2008, we had $175.5 million of working capital and a current ratio of 2.0:1, compared to working capital of $175.8 million and a current ratio of 2.1:1 at December 31, 2007.  Historically, we have used our operating cash flow and borrowings, as well as periodic sales of our common stock to finance ongoing operations and business combinations.  We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, our operating cash flow and our available Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to finance our working capital needs through at least the next year.

Our balance of cash and cash equivalents increased $7.0 million to $38.7 million at June 30, 2008, compared to a balance of $31.7 million at December 31, 2007.  Typically, most of our cash balance is maintained by our European subsidiaries and our domestic cash balances are used daily to reduce the outstanding balance on our Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Operating activities.  Total accounts receivable increased $6.5 million to $275.6 million at June 30, 2008, from $269.1 million at December 31, 2007, primarily due to increased revenue in Europe.  Total accounts receivable day’s sales outstanding (“DSO”) was 72 days at June 30, 2008, a six day improvement compared to 78 days at December 31, 2007.  Changes in accounts receivable have a significant impact on our cash flow.  Items that can affect our accounts receivable DSO include: contractual payment terms, client payment patterns (including approval or processing delays and cash management), client mix (public vs. private), fluctuations in the level of IT product sales and the effectiveness of our collection efforts.  Many of the individual reasons are outside of our control and, as a result, it is normal for our DSO to fluctuate from period to period, affecting our liquidity.  Our outstanding accounts receivable balance from the City of New Orleans (the “City”) was $10 million at June 30, 2008, down from $17 million at December 31, 2007.  Of our outstanding receivable balance from the City at June 30, 2008, approximately $4 million is related to work performed following the 2005 hurricane disaster.  The City continues to experience administrative complications and FEMA reimbursement delays, which have delayed payment for our services.  We continue to work with the City and FEMA on the remaining balance.  In addition, we continue to provide a variety of services to the City and based on our communications with the City, we believe we will be able to collect the balance in full.

 

Accrued compensation and related liabilities increased slightly to $56.9 million at June 30, 2008, from $54.8 million at December 31, 2007, primarily due to increased payroll levels.  These balances are subject to the effects from the timing of our normal bi-weekly U.S. payroll cycle.  At both June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there were 6 days of accrued domestic unpaid wages.  In addition, annual bonuses are typically accrued throughout the year and paid in the first quarter of the following year, causing some fluctuation from quarter to quarter.

 

Accounts payable and other accrued expenses and liabilities typically fluctuate based on when we receive actual vendor invoices and when they are paid.  The largest of such items typically relates to vendor payments for IT hardware and software products that we resell and payments to services-related contractors.  Other accrued expenses and liabilities increased $11.0 million to $43.8 million at June 30, 2008, from $32.8 million at December 31, 2007.  This was the result of nearly equal increases in accrued liabilities in both the U.S. and Europe.  The change in accrued liabilities in the U.S. was due to an increase in the unrealized loss on our net investment hedges to $10.7 million at June 30, 2008, from $4.4 million at December 31, 2007.  The current fair value of our net investment hedges that mature in September 2008 is a loss of $6.0 million.  The change in accrued liabilities in Europe was

Table of Contents

 

primarily related to increases in expenses such as sales taxes, subcontractor expenses, and other expenses that have increased as a result of significantly higher revenues in Europe, as well as accrued costs related to the set-up and operation of a new data center in Europe.

 

Investing activities.  Investing activities are primarily comprised of cash paid for acquisitions and purchases of property and equipment.  We used approximately $7.3 million for acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to approximately $1.5 million during the same period of the prior year.  Spending on property and equipment increased to approximately $8.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.  This increase was primarily related to purchases made for client project-related assets.

 

Financing activities.  Typically, our most significant financing activities consist of the gross borrowings and repayments on our long-term bank debt.  During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we had net borrowings of $53.1 million, compared to net payments of $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.  The net borrowings in 2008 have primarily been used to retire some of our Debentures.  During the first six months of 2008, we have used $68.8 million of cash for this purpose.  Additional financing activity inflows consist of sales of stock under our employee stock purchase plan and the exercise of employee stock options.  The cash provided by sales of stock under our employee stock purchase plan and options exercised was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.  In addition to payments on our long-term bank debt, our other primary financing activity outflow typically includes the purchase of treasury stock.  We purchased $5.8 million of treasury stock during the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $8.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007.  At June 30, 2008, we had authorization for the repurchase of an additional $7.8 million of our common stock under our current repurchase plan.  We may continue to use cash to repurchase our common stock (subject to limitations under our new Revolving Credit Facility discussed below).  We may also continue to voluntarily repurchase our Debentures if we can obtain them at favorable prices.  In December 2008 we may be required to repurchase the remaining Debentures (see below).

 

Revolving Credit Facility — On February 11, 2008, we entered into a $200 million Revolving Credit Facility, with several financial institutions as lenders and Wells Fargo as administrative agent.  The Revolving Credit Facility replaced our previous $60 million bank line of credit and refinanced all amounts outstanding thereunder.  The credit available under the Revolving Credit Facility can be used for our working capital and general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of our Debentures.  Substantially all of our assets secure the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Beginning on March 31, 2009, and continuing through December 31, 2010, the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will be reduced by $7.5 million each quarter end.  The Revolving Credit Facility matures on February 11, 2011, at which time the remaining $140 million of maximum credit available will terminate and all outstanding balances must be repaid in full.  Additionally, the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments (and commitment reductions) in amounts equal to the net cash proceeds resulting from specified events such as asset dispositions, event of loss, issuance or incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of equity, subject in each case to specified thresholds and other exceptions.

 

At our election, our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at rates calculated in reference to either the Wells Fargo prime lending rate (“prime”) plus a margin that ranges from 0.00% to 0.25%, or a London interbank offered market rate (“LIBOR”) for one to six month maturities, plus a margin that ranges from 0.75% to 1.75%.  At June 30, 2008, our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding borrowings was 4.64%.  We are also required to pay a fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility that ranges from 0.20% to 0.50%.  For so long as our Debentures remain outstanding, we will also incur a facility fee of 0.15% on the entire amount of the commitment.

 

The terms of the Revolving Credit Facility include, among other provisions, specific limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, stock repurchases, investments, guarantees, mergers, dispositions and acquisitions, and a prohibition on the payment of any dividends.  The Revolving Credit Facility also contains certain financial covenants, including a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio (Total Debt divided by EBITDA) of 3.25 to 1.00, a maximum senior leverage ratio (Total Debt excluding Debentures divided by EBITDA) of 1.50 to 1.00, a minimum interest coverage ratio (net income plus net interest expense (“EBIT”) divided by interest expense) of  3.50 to 1.00 and a minimum liquidity percentage (Total Liquidity divided by outstanding Debentures) of 100% to 115%.

Table of Contents

 

We are required to be in compliance with the financial covenants at the end of each calendar quarter.  We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of June 30, 2008.  Certain elements of these ratios are defined below:

 

·                  Total Debt includes borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, any foreign bank debt and our term loans with Wells Fargo, plus the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit.  This includes our Debentures.

 

·                  EBITDA represents net income from continuing operations plus: net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation expense, amortization expense, share-based compensation expense and minority interest expense, measured over the prior four quarters.

 

·                  Total Liquidity represents unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, plus the remaining available commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility, less debt of our foreign subsidiaries.

 

Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures - In a private placement on December 2, 2003, we issued $175.0 million of 2.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due to mature in December 2023.  The Debentures are general unsecured obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to all of our indebtedness and other liabilities.  Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year.  As of June 30, 2008, we had repurchased and retired $94.0 million of our Debentures, leaving $81.0 million outstanding.  We paid $68.8 million for repurchases completed during the six months ended June 30, 2008, resulting in a gain, net of accelerated debt issuance costs, of $1.9 million.

 

The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 73.3138 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $13.64 per share, subject to adjustments, prior to the close of business on the final maturity date only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after December 31, 2003, if the closing sale price of our common stock exceeds 120% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter; (2) during the five business days after any ten consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures for each day of such period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of our common stock and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of $1,000 principal amount of the Debentures; (3) if the Debentures have been called for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate transactions.  The conversion price is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.  In 2005, we made irrevocable elections to settle in cash and not in shares, 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures surrendered for conversion.  As a result, upon conversion we will deliver cash in lieu of our common stock.

 

Debenture holders may also require us to repurchase their Debentures on December 15, 2008, 2010, 2013 and 2018, or at any time prior to their maturity in the case of certain events, at a repurchase price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest.  From December 20, 2008, to but not including December 15, 2010, we may redeem any of the Debentures if the closing price of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in any 30 consecutive trading day period.  Beginning December 15, 2010, we may, by providing at least 30-days’ notice to the holders, redeem any of the Debentures at a redemption price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest.  Given our current stock price and market interest rates, we expect that we will be required to repurchase most or all of the remaining Debentures on December 15, 2008.  We may voluntarily continue to repurchase more of the Debentures prior to December 15, 2008.  We believe our new Revolving Credit Facility (mentioned above) and our expected cash flow will provide sufficient available resources to cover the payment of any Debentures that we will have to settle in 2008.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” which changes accounting for business acquisitions.  SFAS No. 141(R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  Certain provisions of this standard will, among other things, impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration), exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting, and change accounting practices for acquired contingencies, acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process

research and development, indemnification assets and tax benefits.  For CIBER, SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for business combinations and adjustments to an acquired entity’s deferred tax asset and liability balances occurring after December 31, 2008.  We are currently evaluating the future impact and required disclosures of this standard. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51,” which establishes new standards governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (“NCIs”) in partially-owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries.  Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs (previously referred to as minority interests) be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability, that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions, rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially-owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance.  This standard also requires changes to certain presentation and disclosure requirements.  SFAS No. 160 is effective beginning January 1, 2009.  The provisions of the standard are to be applied to all NCIs prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. We are currently evaluating the future impact and required disclosures of this standard.

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – An Amendment to FASB Statement No. 133,” which changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  Companies are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.  We are currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this standard.

 

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“the FSP”).  The FSP requires that the proceeds from the issuance of certain convertible debt instruments be allocated between a liability component (issued at a discount) and an equity component.  The resulting debt discount must be amortized over the period the convertible debt is expected to be outstanding as additional non-cash interest expense.  The FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, will not permit early application, and will require retrospective application to all periods presented.  This FSP changes the accounting treatment for our Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures (“Debentures”).  Although we anticipate that most or all of our remaining Debentures will be required to be repurchased prior to the adoption of this FSP on January 1, 2009, our financial statements covering past periods (including the current fiscal year) will be impacted as a result of the required retrospective application.  Financial statements for future periods may also be impacted to the extent that any of the Debentures remain outstanding on January 1, 2009.  We are currently evaluating the impact of the FSP on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see “Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 

Periodically, we enter into cross-currency swap arrangements with a financial institution to partially hedge the net assets of certain foreign operations (“net investment hedges”) and offset the foreign currency translation and economic exposures related to our investments in these foreign operations.  Increases and decreases in the net investment in our subsidiaries due to foreign exchange volatility will be partially offset by foreign exchange losses and gains from the net investment hedge.  At June 30, 2008, we had net investment hedges in Euros with a notional amount of $76.0 million and a weighted average exchange rate of 0.7238 Euros for each U.S. dollar(“USD”).  The fair value of our hedges was a loss of $10.7 million at June 30, 2008.  A 10% change in the value of the USD against the Euro would result in approximately a $7.6 million change in the value of our hedge instruments.  The hedges mature at varying dates up to September 2009.  The current fair value of our net investment hedges that mature in September 2008 is a loss of $6.0 million.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, there were no other material changes in our market risk exposure.  For a complete discussion of our market risk associated with foreign currency risk and interest rate risk as of December 31, 2008,

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures – We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information related to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify the Company’s financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors.  Based on their evaluation as of June 30, 2008, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information that we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Controls - There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
