INNODATA ISOGEN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006
(Unaudited)

1.  
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business -Innodata Isogen, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a leading provider of business services that help organizations create, manage, use and distribute information more effectively and economically. The Company provides content-related business process outsourcing (BPO) services and content-related information technology (IT) professional services. The Company’s content-related BPO services focus on fabrication services and knowledge services. Fabrication services include digitization and data conversion services, content creation and XML services. Knowledge services include content enhancement, hyperlinking, indexing and general editorial services. The Company’s content-related IT professional services focus on the design, implementation, integration and deployment of systems used to author, manage and distribute content.

Basis of Presentation -Consolidated financial statements for the interim periods included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2007, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Innodata Isogen, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates -In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include deferred taxes and related valuation allowances, allowances for bad debts and billing adjustments, cash flows used in impairment analysis of long-lived assets, litigation accruals, post retirement benefits, and estimated accruals for various tax exposures.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. Unless otherwise noted, the accounting policies used in preparing these financial statements are the same as those described in the December 31, 2006 financial statements.
 
8


Foreign Currency -The functional currency for the Company’s production operations located in the Philippines, India and Sri Lanka is U.S. dollars. As such, transactions denominated in Philippine pesos, Indian and Sri Lanka rupees were translated to U.S. dollars at rates which approximate those in effect on transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at June 30, 2007 and 2006 were translated at the exchange rate in effect as of those dates. Exchange gains and (losses) resulting from such transactions were ($158,000) and $144,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and ($202,000) and $44,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Cash Equivalents- For financial statement purposes (including cash flows), the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

2.  
LONG TERM OBLIGATIONS

In 2007, the Company financed the acquisition of certain computer and communications equipment approximating $511,000. The capital lease obligations bear interest ranging from 7% to 10% and are payable over two to five years.

The cost of equipment under capital leases is included in the balance sheets as property, plant, and equipment and was $1,218,000 and $707,000 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Accumulated amortization of the leased equipment at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007, was approximately $703,000 and $671,000, respectively. Amortization of assets under capital leases is included under depreciation expense.
 
The future minimum lease payments required under the capital leases and the present value of the net minimum lease payments as of June 30, 2007 are as follows (in thousands):

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 principally represents foreign taxes.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences are deductible and net operating losses are utilized. Based on a consideration of these factors, the Company has established a valuation allowance of approximately $4,365,000 and $4,229,000, at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 requires companies to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any tax benefit can be recorded in the financial statements. It also provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, classification and disclosure in the financial statements for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. No cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle or adjustment to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits was recognized as a result of the adoption of FIN 48. Accordingly, the adoption of FIN 48 did not have an effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

The Company is subject to US federal income tax as well as income tax in various states and foreign jurisdictions. In the third quarter of 2007, the IRS completed the audit of the Company’s 2004 and 2005 income tax returns which will result in a decrease to the Company’s net operating loss carryforward of approximately $70,000.
 
10


The Company is no longer subject to examination of federal and New Jersey taxing authorities for years prior to 2006.

Various foreign subsidiaries currently have open tax years ranging from 2003 through 2006.

Pursuant to an income tax audit by the Indian bureau of taxation, on March 27, 2006, one of the Company’s Indian subsidiaries received a tax assessment approximating $394,000, including interest through June 30, 2007, for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2003. Management disagrees with the basis of the tax assessment, and has filed an appeal against the assessment, which it will fight vigorously. The Indian bureau of taxation has also completed an audit of the Company’s Indian subsidiary’s income tax return for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2004. The ultimate outcome was favorable, and there was no tax assessment imposed for the fiscal tax year ended March 31, 2004. On March 20, 2007, the Indian bureau of taxation commenced an audit of the subsidiary’s income tax return for the fiscal year ended 2005. The ultimate outcome cannot be determined at this time.

The liability for net unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was approximately $478,000 and $481,000, respectively. This liability represents an accrual relating to uncertain income tax positions the Company has taken on its domestic and foreign tax returns. The Company reports interest expense and penalties related to income tax liabilities as a component of its provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had accrued a liability for interest and penalties totaling approximately $185,000 and $138,000, respectively.

Furthermore the Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $167,000 as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, which, if recognized, would increase the Company’s net operating loss carryforward. Such increase, if recognized, would not have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate since the increase to its deferred tax assets would result in a corresponding increase to its valuation allowance.

The following presents a rollforward of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest for the six months ended June 30, 2007 (amounts in thousands):

As a result of the IRS audit settlement mentioned above, the Company expects to recognize approximately $70,000 of previously unrecognized tax benefits in the third quarter of 2007. The Company currently cannot estimate the range of any further possible change in unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months. In addition the Company is subject to various tax audits and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. Management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of these audits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Line of Credit -The Company has an uncommitted line of credit of $5 million which expires on May 31, 2008. Under the terms of the agreement any amounts drawn against this facility must be secured by a certificate of deposit of an equal amount. Additionally, any amounts drawn will bear interest at the bank’s alternate base rate plus ½% or LIBOR plus 3%. The Company has no outstanding obligations under this credit line.

Litigation -In connection with the cessation of all operations at certain foreign subsidiaries, certain former employees have filed various actions against certain of the Company’s Philippine subsidiaries, and have purported to also sue the Company and certain of its officers and directors, seeking to require reinstatement of employment and to recover back wages for an allegedly illegal facility closing on June 7, 2002 based on the terms of a collective bargaining agreement with this subsidiary. If complainants' claims had merit, they could be entitled to back wages and benefits of up to approximately $6.0 million, based upon exchange rates as of June 30, 2007, and consistent with prevailing jurisprudence. Based on consultation with legal counsel, we believe that the complainants' claims are without merit and continue to defend against them vigorously.

In addition, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business.  

While management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of all these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or overall trends in results of operations, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Were an unfavorable ruling to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the operating results of the period in which the ruling occurs. In addition, the estimate of potential impact on the Company’s financial position or overall results of operations for the above legal proceedings could change in the future.

5.  
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

On May 18, 2007, the Company entered into a three year agreement with its Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) whereby the Company agreed to cause two of its subsidiaries to employ the COO. The agreement, which has an effective date of January 1, 2007, provides for annual base compensation of $175,000 subject to annual reviews for discretionary annual increases by the Company; incentive compensation pursuant to an incentive compensation plan; and a signing bonus of $30,000. The agreement also provides for insurance and other fringe benefits, and contains confidentiality, non-compete and non-interference provisions. In the event the Company terminates the agreement without cause, the COO is entitled to receive his then base salary for 12 months following the date of termination.

  RESTRUCTURING COST

As part of an overall cost reduction plan to reduce operating costs, in September 2006 the Company announced a worldwide workforce reduction of slightly under 300 employees, the majority of whom were based in Asia. Most of these employees were terminated prior to September 30, and the plan was complete as of June 30, 2007.

As of December 31, 2006, accrued expenses included approximately $102,000 related to restructuring costs charged in 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company paid severance costs totaling $102,000.

SEGMENT REPORTING AND CONCENTRATIONS

The Company’s operations are classified into two reporting segments: (1) content-related BPO services and (2) content-related IT professional services. The content-related BPO services segment focuses on fabrication services and knowledge services. Fabrication services include digitization and data conversion services, content creation and XML services. Knowledge services include content enhancement, hyperlinking, indexing and general editorial services. The content-related IT professional services segment focuses on the design, implementation, integration and deployment of systems used to author, manage and distribute content. The Company’s content-related BPO services revenues are generated principally from its production facilities located in the Philippines, India and Sri Lanka. The Company does not depend on revenues from sources internal to the countries in which the Company operates; nevertheless, the Company is subject to certain adverse economic and political risks relating to overseas economies in general, such as inflation, currency fluctuations and regulatory burdens.

Another client accounted for 26% of the Company’s revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Two other clients accounted for 11% and 13% of the Company’s revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006. No other client accounted for 10% or more of the total revenues for these periods.

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The dilutive effect of the outstanding options is reflected in diluted income (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method. Options to purchase 411,000 shares of common stock in 2007 and 3.0 million shares of common stock in 2006 were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and therefore, the effect would have been antidilutive. In addition, diluted net loss per share does not include 795,000 and 905,000 potential common shares derived from stock options for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, because as a result of the Company incurring losses, their effect would have been antidilutive .

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Disclosures in this Form 10-Q contain certain forward-looking statements, including without limitation, statements concerning our operations, economic performance, and financial condition. These forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “estimate,” “believe,” “expect,” and “anticipate” and other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates.

These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, continuing revenue concentration in a limited number of clients, continuing reliance on project-based work, worsening of market conditions, changes in external market factors, the ability and willingness of our clients and prospective clients to execute business plans which give rise to requirements for digital content and professional services in knowledge processing, difficulty in integrating and deriving synergies from acquisitions, potential undiscovered liabilities of companies that we acquire, changes in our business or growth strategy, the emergence of new or growing competitors, various other competitive and technological factors, and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Our actual results could differ materially from the results referred to in the forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the results referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this release will occur.

We undertake no obligation to update or review any guidance or other forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Services for business processes that we anticipate a client will require for an indefinite period generate what we regard as recurring revenues. Services for a specific project generate revenues that we regard as non-recurring.

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and results of operations. While we seek, wherever possible, to counterbalance periodic declines in revenues on completion of large projects with new arrangements to provide services to the same client or others, we have at times been unable to avoid declines in revenues when large projects are completed, and we may continue to encounter this difficulty in the future. Our inability in any period to obtain sufficient new projects to counterbalance any decreases in such work adversely affects our revenues and results of operations for the period.

We have historically relied on a very limited number of clients that have accounted for a significant portion of our revenues. We may lose any of these or any of our other major clients as a result of our failure to meet or satisfy our clients’ requirements; the completion, termination or reduction of a project or engagement; or the selection of another service provider. Our revenues and results of operations are adversely affected when these events occur.

Our services are typically subject to client requirements, and in many cases are terminable by the client upon 30 to 90 days’ notice.

Other factors, some of which are beyond our control, that may also affect our quarterly results include the size, mix, timing and terms and conditions of client projects; variations in the duration, size and scope of our projects or engagements; market acceptance of our clients’ new products and services; our ability to manage costs; local factors and events that affect our production volume, such as local holidays; unforeseen events, such as earthquakes, storms and civil unrest; currency exchange fluctuations; changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors; the introduction of new services by us or our competitors; and acquisition and integration costs related to possible acquisitions of other businesses.

Our production facilities are located in the Philippines, India and Sri Lanka. To the extent that the currencies of these countries fluctuate, we are subject to risks of changing costs of production after pricing is established for certain customer projects. However, the majority of our contracts contain provisions for an annual price adjustment.

Direct operating costs for both our content-related BPO services and content-related IT professional services consist of direct payroll, occupancy costs, depreciation, telecommunications, computer services and supplies.

Selling and administrative expenses for both our content-related BPO services and content-related IT professional services consist of management and administrative salaries, selling and marketing costs and administrative overhead.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

Revenues

Revenues were $16.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $9.7 million for the similar period in 2006, an increase of 68%.

Revenues from content-related BPO services increased 83% to $15.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $8.4 million for the similar period in 2006. The $7 million in increased revenues primarily reflects a $4.7 million increase from recurring revenue and $2.3 million from project revenue that we regard as non-recurring. Furthermore, more than 50% of the total revenue increase is attributable to knowledge services.
 
Revenues from content-related IT professional services decreased 26% to $967,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $1.3 million for the similar period in 2006. Although there were revenues derived from new projects that started during the second quarter of 2007, there were also decreases due to the completion in 2007 of several IT professional services projects.

One client accounted for 17% and 24% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. A second client accounted for 31% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007. A third client accounted for 15% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006. No other client accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues for these periods. Further, for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, revenues from clients located in foreign countries (principally in Europe) accounted for 23% and 34% respectively, of our total revenues.

For the three months ended June 30, 2007, approximately 65% of our revenue was recurring and 35% was non-recurring, compared with 61% and 39%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2006. All recurring revenues are from content-related BPO services segment.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs were $12.0 million and $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 41%. Direct operating costs as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, were 73% and 88% respectively.

Direct operating costs for content-related BPO services were $10.7 million and $7.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 43%. Direct operating costs of content-related BPO services as a percentage of revenues from content related BPO services were 69% and 89% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in direct operating costs of content-related BPO services was principally attributable to increases in variable labor and other operating costs in support of higher revenue volume. The d irect operating expenses as a percentage of revenues for our content-related BPO services segment were lower in the three months ended June 30, 2007, than in the comparable 2006 period, principally due to decreased variable costs as a percent of revenues, as well as a decrease in fixed costs, principally resulting from the restructuring program in September 2006. These cost decreases were offset in part by a $560,000 increase in direct operating costs resulting from a weakened US dollar against the Philippine peso and Indian rupee.
 
19


Direct operating costs for content-related IT professional services were $1.3 million and $1.0   million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 30%. Direct operating costs for content-related IT professional services as a percentage of revenues from content-related IT professional services were 134% and 79% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in direct operating costs of content-related IT professional services was due to increases in labor, recruitment, and other operating costs to support both new content-related BPO and IT professional services business that we anticipate will generate revenues in future quarters.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses were $3.5 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 22% and 43% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Included in selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 are accrued severance costs of approximately $275,000 related to the termination of an executive’s employment and $267,000 in new services research and development. The remaining decrease in selling and administrative expenses is principally attributable to the net effect of cost reductions. In addition, we did not incur any research and development costs in the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is principally a result of the factors described above and the increase in revenues.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was principally comprised of foreign income taxes attributable to certain overseas subsidiaries which generated taxable income.

Net Income / Loss

We recorded a net profit of $862,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared with a net loss of approximately $3.0 million in the comparable period in 2006. The change was principally attributable to the increase in gross margin resulting from increased revenues and lower selling and administrative expenses.

Revenues

Revenues were $29.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $20.0 million for the similar period in 2006, an increase of 45%.

Revenues from content-related BPO services increased 52% to $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $17.7 million for the similar period in 2006. The $9.2 million in increased revenues primarily reflects a $7.2 million increase from recurring revenue and $2 million from project revenue that we regard as non-recurring. Furthermore, approximately 60% of the total revenue increase is attributable to knowledge services.

Revenues from content-related IT professional services slightly decreased by 4%, to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $2.3 million for the similar period in 2006.

One client accounted for 17% and 27% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Another client accounted for 26% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Two other clients accounted for 11% and 13% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006. No other client accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues for these periods. Further, for each of the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, revenues to non-US clients accounted for 24% and 36% respectively, of the Company's revenues.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, approximately 67% of our revenue was recurring and 33% was non-recurring, compared with 60% and 40%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2006. All recurring revenues are from content-related BPO services segment.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs were $22.0 million and $16.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 30%. Direct operating costs as a percentage of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, were 76% and 84% respectively.

Direct operating costs for content-related BPO services were $19.3 million and $14.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 30%. Direct operating costs of content-related BPO services as a percentage of revenues from content related BPO services were 72% and 84% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in direct operating costs of content-related BPO services was principally attributable to increases in variable labor and other operating costs in support of higher revenue volume. The d irect operating expenses as a percentage of revenues for our content-related BPO services segment were lower in the six months ended June 30, 2007, than in the comparable 2006 period, principally due to decreased variable costs as a percent of revenues, as well as a decrease in fixed costs, principally resulting from the restructuring program in September 2006. These cost decreases were offset in part by a $900,000 increase in direct operating costs resulting from a weakened US dollar against the Philippine peso and Indian rupee.

Direct operating costs for content-related IT professional services were $2.7 million and $2.0   million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 35%. Direct operating costs for content-related IT professional services as a percentage of revenues from content-related IT professional services were 123% and 85% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in direct operating costs of content-related IT professional services was due to increases in labor, recruitment, and other operating costs to support both new content-related BPO and IT professional services business that we anticipate will generate revenues in future quarters.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses were $7.0 million and $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, a decrease of 8%. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 24% and 38% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Included in selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 are accrued severance costs of approximately $275,000 related to the termination of an executive’s employment and $552,000 in new services research and development. Also included as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is approximately $246,000 received as inducement to terminate our Dallas office lease prior to its contractual expiration date. We did not incur any research and development costs in the six months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is principally a result of the factors described above and the increase in revenues.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was principally comprised of foreign income taxes attributable to certain overseas subsidiaries which generated taxable income.

Net Income / Loss

We recorded a net profit of $219,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with a net loss of approximately $4.3 million in the comparable period in 2006. The change was principally attributable to the increase in gross margin resulting from increased revenues.

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $895,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $402,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of approximately $493,000. The $493,000 increase in net cash used in operating activities is principally due to a $5.3 million increase in accounts receivable net of a $4.5 million decrease in net loss and a $300,000 net change in operating assets and liabilities and non-cash items.

Accounts receivable totaled approximately $10.5 million at June 30, 2007, representing approximately 55 days of sales outstanding compared to $6.5 million, or 56 days, at December 31, 2006.

A significant amount of our revenues is derived from clients in the publishing industry. Accordingly, our accounts receivable generally include significant amounts due from such clients. In addition, as of June 30, 2007, approximately 22% of our accounts receivable was from foreign (principally European) clients, and 50% of accounts receivable was due from two clients.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, we spent cash approximating $1.2 million for capital expenditures, compared to approximately $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Capital spending in 2007 related principally to normal ongoing equipment upgrades and to office improvements. Capital spending in the six months ended June 30, 2006 related principally to normal ongoing equipment upgrades, office reimbursements and to relocation of one of our Asian facilities. Furthermore, during the six months ended June 30, 2007, we acquired certain computer and communications equipment approximating $511,000 through finance leases, and during the six months ended June 30, 2006, we financed the purchase of software licenses totaling approximately $164,000. During the next twelve months, we anticipate that capital expenditures for ongoing technology, hardware, equipment and infrastructure upgrades will approximate $3.0 to $4.0 million.
 
Net Cash Used In Financing Activities

Proceeds from the exercise of stock options provided cash approximating $72,000 and $356,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. In addition, payments of long-term obligations approximated $370,000 and $400,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Availability of Funds

We have an uncommitted line of credit of $5 million which expires on May 31, 2008. Under the terms of the agreement, any amounts drawn against this facility must be secured by a certificate of deposit of an equal amount. Additionally, any amounts drawn will bear interest at the bank’s alternate base rate plus ½% or LIBOR plus 3%. We have no outstanding obligations under this credit line.

We believe that existing cash and internally generated funds will be sufficient for our reasonably anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements during the next 12 months. We fund our foreign expenditures from our U.S. corporate headquarters on an as-needed basis.

Inflation, Seasonality and Prevailing Economic Conditions

To date, inflation has not had a significant impact on our operations. We generally perform work for our clients under project-specific contracts, requirements-based contracts or long-term contracts. Contracts are typically subject to numerous termination provisions.

Our quarterly operating results are subject to certain seasonal fluctuations. Our fourth and first quarters include the months of December and January, when billable services activity by professional staff, as well as engagement decisions by clients, may be reduced due to client budget planning cycles. Demand for our services generally may be lower in the fourth quarter due to reduced activity during the holiday season and fewer working days for our Philippines-based staff during this period. These and other seasonal factors may contribute to fluctuations in our operating results from quarter to quarter.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2007 to our critical accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to interest rate change market risk with respect to our credit line with a financial institution which is priced based on the bank’s alternate base rate (8.25% at June 30, 2007) plus ½% or LIBOR (5.375%) plus 3%. We have no outstanding obligations under our credit line. To the extent we utilize all or a portion of this line of credit, changes in the interest rate will have a positive or negative effect on our interest expense.

We have operations in foreign countries. While we are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations, we presently have no financial instruments in foreign currency and do not maintain significant funds in foreign currency beyond those necessary for operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation has been carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2007 (“Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed and effective to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit 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, and (ii) such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the internal controls over financial reporting.

Accordingly, the Executive covenants that during the Limitation Period (as hereinafter defined), the Executive will not directly or indirectly be employed, engaged or otherwise associated in any capacity the same or substantially similar to that in which Executive was employed by the Company by (i) any person or entity which competes with the business the Company and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates shall be conducting at the time of the termination of this Agreement or (ii) any person or entity the major business of which is competitive with the Company and/or it subsidiaries and affiliates, nor will the Executive directly or indirectly own any interest in any such person or entity or render to it any consulting, brokerage, contracting, or other services the same or substantially similar to those performed by the Executive for the Company. In recognition that the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates business includes the sale of its products and services throughout the world, this restriction shall apply on a worldwide basis. The foregoing shall not prohibit the Executive from owning not in excess of 2% of the outstanding stock of any company that is a reporting company under the Securities Act of 1934.
