NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position of CBIZ, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (CBIZ or the Company) as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the consolidated results of their operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Due to seasonality, potential changes in economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations and other factors, the results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CBIZs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of CBIZ, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect the operations or accounts of variable interest entities as the impact is not material to the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of CBIZ. See CBIZs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for further discussion.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect: the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Managements estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, estimates of collectability of accounts receivable and unbilled revenue, the realizability of goodwill and other intangible assets, the fair value of certain assets, the valuation of stock options in determining compensation expense, estimates of accrued liabilities (such as incentive compensation, self-funded health insurance accruals, legal reserves, income tax uncertainties, future contingent purchase price obligations, and consolidation and integration reserves), the provision for income taxes, the realizability of deferred tax assets, and other factors. Managements estimates and assumptions are derived from and are continually evaluated based upon available information, judgment and experience. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2011 consolidated financial statements and disclosures have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Revenue Recognition and Valuation of Unbilled Revenues
Revenue is recognized only when all of the following are present: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee to the client is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
CBIZ offers a vast array of products and business services to its clients. Those services are delivered through four practice groups. A description of revenue recognition policies is included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

CBIZ, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-05) Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which states that comprehensive income should be presented in either one or two consecutive financial statements. Companies have the option to either present other comprehensive income on the same statement as net income, or as a separate statement that immediately follows the statement of net income. ASU 2011-05 was effective for the first reporting period after December 15, 2011, and was applied retrospectively. CBIZ adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-05 for the first quarter of 2012.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 (ASU 2011-04) Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 provides a consistent definition of fair value to ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 does not extend the use of fair value, but rather provides additional disclosure guidance about the application of fair value in those areas where fair value is already required or permitted, especially for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for the first reporting period after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied prospectively. CBIZ adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-04 for the first quarter of 2012 and has provided additional disclosure in its discussion of fair value, especially for the Companys level 3 fair value disclosures.

5. | Borrowing Arrangements |
CBIZ had two primary debt arrangements at June 30, 2012 that provided the Company with the capital necessary to meet its working capital needs as well as the flexibility to continue with its strategic initiatives, including business acquisitions and share repurchases: the 2010 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes (2010 Notes) totaling $130 million and a $275 million unsecured credit facility. In addition to the discussion below, refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for additional details of CBIZs borrowing arrangements.
2010 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes
On September 27, 2010, CBIZ issued $130.0 million of 2010 Notes to qualified institutional buyers. The 2010 Notes are direct, unsecured, senior subordinated obligations of CBIZ. The 2010 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.875% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1. The 2010 Notes mature on October 1, 2015 unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted.

Bank Debt
CBIZ maintains a $275 million unsecured credit facility (credit facility) with Bank of America as agent for a group of seven participating banks. The balance outstanding under the credit facility was $149.2 million and $145.0 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Rates for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

CBIZ had approximately $8.8 million of available funds under the credit facility at June 30, 2012. The credit facility provides CBIZ operating flexibility and funding to support seasonal working capital needs and other strategic initiatives such as acquisitions and share repurchases. The maturity date of the credit facility is June 2015. CBIZ believes it is in compliance with its debt covenants at June 30, 2012.
6. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Letters of Credit and Guarantees
CBIZ provides letters of credit to landlords (lessors) of its leased premises in lieu of cash security deposits which totaled $2.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. In addition, CBIZ provides license bonds to various state agencies to meet certain licensing requirements. The amount of license bonds outstanding at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $2.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
CBIZ acted as guarantor on various letters of credit for a CPA firm with which it has an affiliation, which totaled $5.2 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. CBIZ has recognized a liability for the fair value of the obligations undertaken in issuing these guarantees, which is recorded as other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Management does not expect any material changes to result from these instruments as performance under the guarantees is not expected to be required.
Legal Proceedings
In May, June, July, August and September of 2010, CBIZ, Inc. and its subsidiary, CBIZ MHM, LLC (fka CBIZ Accounting, Tax & Advisory Services, LLC) (the CBIZ Parties), were named as defendants in lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Robert Facciola, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.) and in the Superior Court for Maricopa County Arizona (Victims Recovery, LLC v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; Roger Ashkenazi, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; Mary Marsh, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; and ML Liquidating Trust v. Mayer Hoffman McCann PC, et al.), respectively. The Maricopa County cases were removed to the United States District Court or Bankruptcy Court and all have since been remanded to the Superior Court for Maricopa County. Additionally, in November 2009, CBIZ MHM, LLC was named as a defendant in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Jeffery C. Stone v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.). The Stone case has been voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff in that matter.
These matters arise out of the bankruptcy proceedings related to Mortgages Ltd., a mortgage lender to developers in the Phoenix, Arizona area. Various other professional firms not related to the Company are also defendants in these lawsuits. The motion phase of these proceedings has commenced.

CBIZ, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
The plaintiffs, except for those in the Stone and ML Liquidating Trust cases, are all alleged to have directly or indirectly invested in real estate mortgages through Mortgages Ltd. The Victims Recovery, Ashkenazi and Marsh plaintiffs seek monetary damages equivalent to the amounts of their investments. The plaintiff in the ML Liquidating Trust matter asserts errors and omissions and breach of contract claims, and is seeking monetary damages. The plaintiffs in these suits also seek pre- and post-judgment interest, punitive damages and attorneys fees.
Mortgages Ltd. had been audited by Mayer Hoffman McCann PC (Mayer Hoffman), a CPA firm which has an administrative services agreement with CBIZ. The claims against the CBIZ Parties seek to impose auditor-type liabilities upon the CBIZ Parties for audits it did not conduct. Specific claims include securities fraud, common law fraud, negligent misrepresentation, Arizona Investment Management Act violations, control-person liability, aiding and abetting and conspiracy. CBIZ is not a CPA firm, does not provide audits, and did not audit any of the entities at issue in these lawsuits.
In June 2011 the Facciola court, in which the plaintiffs were seeking to certify a class of all Mortgages Ltd. investors, granted the motions to dismiss filed by the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. After that dismissal order, the plaintiffs moved the court to amend their complaint in an attempt to state a claim against the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. In November 2011, the Facciola court denied the plaintiffs request to amend the complaint as to the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. The Facciola case is now proceeding only against the remaining defendants.
The CBIZ Parties deny all allegations of wrongdoing made against them in these actions and are vigorously defending the proceedings. The Company has been advised by Mayer Hoffman that it denies all allegations of wrongdoing made against it and that it intends to continue vigorously defending the matters. Although the proceedings are subject to uncertainties inherent in the litigation process and the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, management believes that the allegations are without merit and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2012 the CBIZ Parties were added as defendants to a lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of California for Orange County (Signature Financial Group, Inc., et al, (Signature) v. Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C., et al). This lawsuit arises out of a review of the financial statements of Medical Capital Holdings, Inc. (Medical Capital) by Mayer Hoffman. In June 2009 Medical Capital was sued by the SEC and a receiver was appointed to liquidate Medical Capital. The plaintiffs in the Signature lawsuit are financial advisors that sold Medical Capital investments to their clients. Those plaintiffs were sued by their clients for losses related to Medical Capital and now seek to recover damages from the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman for the losses and expenses they incurred in litigation with their respective clients and lost profits. The Signature lawsuit seeks to impose auditor-type liabilities upon the CBIZ Parties for attest services they did not conduct. Specific claims include fraud, intentional misrepresentation and concealment; negligent misrepresentation; equitable indemnity; declaratory relief and respondeat superior.
The CBIZ Parties deny all allegations of wrongdoing made against them in the Signature lawsuit and are vigorously defending the proceeding. The Company has been advised by Mayer Hoffman that it denies all allegations of wrongdoing made against it and that it intends to continue vigorously defending the matters. Although the proceedings are subject to uncertainties inherent in the litigation process and the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, management believes that the allegations are without merit and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In addition to those items disclosed above, the Company is, from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of such proceedings is not presently determinable, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Interest Rate Swaps
CBIZ uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure primarily through converting portions of floating rate debt under the credit facility to a fixed rate basis. These agreements involve the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. CBIZ does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. See the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for further discussion on CBIZs interest rate swaps.
At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the interest rate swap was classified as a liability derivative. The following table summarizes CBIZs outstanding interest rate swap and its classification on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in thousands).

8. | Fair Value Measurements |
Valuation hierarchy under GAAP categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
| Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |
| Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and are significant to the fair value measurement. |
A financial instruments categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Companys assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The following table summarizes CBIZs assets and liabilities at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis subsequent to initial recognition and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value (in thousands):

|
Contingent Purchase Price LiabilitiesContingent purchase price liabilities arise from business acquisitions and are classified as Level 3 due to the utilization of a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of the contingency. A contingent liability is established for each acquisition that has a contingent purchase price component and normally extends over a three year term. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the contingent purchase price liabilities is the future performance of the acquired business. The future performance of the acquired business directly impacts the contingent purchase price that is paid to the seller, thus performance that exceeds target could result in a higher payout, and a performance under target could result in a lower payout. Changes in the expected amount of potential payouts are recorded as adjustments to the initial contingent purchase price liability, with the same amount being recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. These liabilities are reviewed quarterly and adjusted if necessary. The risk of a large adjustment in any one reporting period is mitigated by the regular reviews of the performance of the acquired businesses and their respective contingent purchase price liability. The contingent purchase price liabilities are included in Other current liabilities and Accrued expenses non-current, depending on the expected settlement date. See Note 12 for further discussion of contingent purchase price liabilities.
The following table presents financial instruments that are not carried at fair value but which require fair value disclosure as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in thousands):

Although the trading of CBIZs 2006 Notes and 2010 Notes is limited, the fair value was determined based upon their most recent quoted market price and as such, is considered to be a Level 1 fair value measurement. The 2006 Notes and the 2010 Notes are carried at face value less any unamortized debt discount. See Note 5 for further discussion of CBIZs debt instruments.
In addition, the carrying amounts of CBIZs cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments, and the carrying value of bank debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the bank debt is variable and approximates current market rates. As a result, the fair value measurement of CBIZs bank debt is considered to be Level 2.

The operating results of Meridian and PCI are reported in the Employee Services practice group. Aggregate consideration for these acquisitions consisted of approximately $6.8 million in cash, $0.8 million in CBIZ common stock, $1.7 million in guaranteed future consideration, and $2.5 million in contingent consideration.
The preliminary aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated as follows (in thousands):
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed: |
||||
Cash |

Fixed Assets |

$ | 5,073 | ||
Goodwill |
6,744 | |||
|
|
|||
Aggregate purchase price |
$ | 11,817 | ||
|
|
Under the terms of the acquisition agreements, a portion of the purchase price is contingent on future performance of the businesses acquired. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that CBIZ could be required to make under the contingent arrangements is $3.8 million. CBIZ is required to record the fair value of this obligation at the acquisition date. CBIZ determined, utilizing a probability weighted income approach, that the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement was $2.5 million, of which $0.3 million was recorded in Other current liabilities and $2.2 million was recorded in Other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2012.
The goodwill of $6.7 million arising from the acquisitions in the current year consists largely of expected future earnings and cash flow from the existing management team, as well as the synergies created by the integration of the new business within the CBIZ organization, including cross-selling opportunities expected with the Companys Financial Services group and the Employee Services group, to help strengthen the Companys existing service offerings and expand the Companys market position. Goodwill recognized is deductible for income tax purposes.
CBIZ also purchased two client lists, one of which is reported in the Employee Services practice group and the other is reported in the Financial Services practice group. Aggregate consideration for these client lists consisted of $0.4 million cash paid at closing and up to an additional $2.5 million in cash which is contingent upon future financial performance of the client lists.
In addition, CBIZ paid $15.7 million in cash and issued approximately 263,000 shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as contingent earnouts for previous acquisitions, which includes approximately 251,100 shares of common stocks that were earned in 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, CBIZ also reduced the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBIZs prior acquisitions by $0.1 million due to lower than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This reduction of $0.1 million is included in Other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Refer to Note 8 for further discussion of contingent purchase price liabilities.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, CBIZ did not acquire any businesses or client lists. CBIZ paid $11.3 million in cash and issued approximately 265,000 shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as contingent earnouts for previous acquisitions. In addition, CBIZ reduced the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBZs prior acquisitions by $1.2 million due to lower than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This reduction of $1.2 million is included in Other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The operating results of these businesses are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the dates of acquisition. Client lists and non-compete agreements are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired (including client lists and non-compete agreements) is allocated to goodwill.
Additions to goodwill, client lists and other intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and contingent consideration earned on prior period acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

13. | Discontinued Operations and Divestitures |
CBIZ will divest (through sale or closure) business operations that do not contribute to the Companys long-term objectives for growth or that are not complementary to its target service offerings and markets. Divestitures are classified as discontinued operations provided they meet the criteria as provided in FASB ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements Discontinued Operations Other Presentation Matters.
Discontinued Operations
Gains from the sale of discontinued operations are recorded as Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of tax, in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In addition, proceeds that are contingent upon a divested operations actual future performance are recorded as gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of tax in the period they are earned. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, CBIZ did not discontinue the operations of any of its businesses and did not sell any operations. Gains recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2012 related to contingent proceeds on sales of a discontinued operation that occurred in a prior period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, CBIZ sold a business from the Financial Services practice group and will receive contingent proceeds from this sale transaction based on revenue over the next three-year period. As part of the sale of this business, CBIZ reduced its goodwill balance by approximately $0.3 million. For those businesses that qualified for treatment as discontinued operations, the assets, liabilities and results of operations are reported separately in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

14. | Segment Disclosures |
CBIZs business units have been aggregated into four practice groups: Financial Services, Employee Services, Medical Management Professionals (MMP), and National Practices. The business units have been aggregated based on the following factors: similarity of the products and services provided to clients; similarity of the regulatory environment in which they operate; and similarity of economic conditions affecting long-term performance. The business units are managed along these segment lines. A general description of services provided by each practice group is provided in the following table.
Financial Services |
Employee Services |
MMP |
National Practices | |||
Accounting Tax Financial Advisory Valuation Litigation Support Internal Audit Family Office Services Fraud Detection Real Estate Advisory |
Employee Benefits Property & Casualty Retirement Plan Services Payroll Services Life Insurance Human Capital Services Compensation Consulting Recruiting Actuarial Services |
Coding and Billing Accounts Receivable Management Full Practice Management Services |
Managed Networking and Hardware Services Health Care Consulting Mergers & Acquisitions |
Corporate and Other. Included in Corporate and Other are operating expenses that are not directly allocated to the individual business units. These expenses are primarily comprised of gains or losses attributable to assets held in the Companys deferred compensation plan, stock-based compensation, certain health care costs, consolidation and integration charges, certain advertising costs and other various expenses.
Accounting policies of the practice groups are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Upon consolidation, all intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated; thus inter-segment revenue is not included in the measure of profit or loss for the practice groups. Performance of the practice groups is evaluated on operating income excluding the costs of certain infrastructure functions (such as information systems, finance and accounting, human resources, legal and marketing), which are reported in the Corporate and Other segment.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to CBIZ or the Company shall mean CBIZ, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its operating subsidiaries.
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of CBIZs financial position at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements and should also be read in conjunction with the disclosures and information contained in Forward-Looking Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Risk Factors included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Overview
CBIZ provides professional business services that help clients better manage their finances and employees. These services are provided to businesses of various sizes, as well as individuals, governmental entities and not-for-profit enterprises throughout the United States and parts of Canada. CBIZ delivers its integrated services through four practice groups: Financial Services, Employee Services, Medical Management Professionals (MMP), and National Practices. See Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a general description of services provided by each practice group.
See the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for further discussion of external relationships and regulatory factors that currently impact CBIZs operations.
Executive Summary
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 increased by 2.8% to $188.6 million from the $183.5 million reported for the comparable period in 2011. Revenue from newly acquired operations, net of divestitures, contributed $6.9 million, or 3.8%, to the growth in revenue, which was partially offset by a same-unit revenue decline of $1.8 million, or 1.0%. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased by 4.0% to $409.4 million from the $393.5 million reported for the comparable period in 2011. Revenue from newly acquired operations, net of divestitures, contributed $15.8 million, or 4.0%, and same-unit revenue contributed $0.1 to the growth in revenue.
Earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.12 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $0.14 for the comparable period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $0.50. Cash earnings per diluted share were $0.27 and $0.29 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.79 and $0.78 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. CBIZ believes cash earnings per diluted share more clearly illustrates the impact of certain non-cash charges to income from continuing operations and is a useful measure for the Company and its analysts. Cash earnings per diluted share is a measurement prepared on a basis other than generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), otherwise known as a non-GAAP measure. As such, the Company has included this data and has provided a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measurement, income per diluted share from continuing operations. Reconciliations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are provided in the Results of Operations Continuing Operations section that follows.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, CBIZ acquired two businesses: Meridian Insurance Group, LLC (Meridian) and Primarily Care, Inc. (PCI). Meridian is an insurance brokerage located in Boca Raton, Florida and Atlanta, Georgia and provides multiple insurance products and services including property and casualty, bonding, personal lines and employee benefits. PCI is an employee benefits brokerage firm located in Cranston, Rhode Island and provides long-term healthcare cost reduction strategies and employee benefits consulting. Annual revenues for Meridian and PCI are approximately $4.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively. Meridian and PCI are reported in the Employee Services practice group.
23
Results of Operations Continuing Operations
Same-unit revenue represents total revenue adjusted to reflect comparable periods of activity for acquisitions and divestitures. For example, for a business acquired on June 1, 2011, revenue for the month of June would be included in same-unit revenue for both years; revenue for the period January 1, 2012 through May 31, 2012 would be reported as revenue from acquired businesses.

A detailed discussion of revenue by practice group is included under Operating Practice Groups.
Gross margin and operating expenses Operating expenses increased by $6.3 million to $166.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $160.4 million for the comparable period of 2011, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 88.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 87.4% for the comparable period of 2011. The primary components of operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are included in the following table:

The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue that was attributable to personnel costs was a result of increased staffing at certain locations as well as an increase in bonus accruals at those locations that exceeded profitability targets. The decrease in deferred compensation costs as a percentage of revenue was due to losses in the value of the assets held in relation to CBIZs deferred compensation plan, which resulted in a favorable impact to gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to a modest gain resulting in no impact to gross margin for the comparable period in 2011. The
24
increase in depreciation and amortization was due to additions of intangible assets related to acquisition activities during the past year. The increase in travel and related costs as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to increased client development efforts. Personnel and other operating expenses are discussed in further detail under Operating Practice Groups.
Corporate general and administrative expenses Corporate general and administrative (G&A) expenses increased by $0.9 million to $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $6.7 million for the comparable period of 2011, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 4.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 3.7% for the comparable period of 2011. The primary components of G&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are included in the following table:

(1) | Other G&A expenses include office expenses, equipment costs, occupancy costs, insurance expense and other expenses, none of which are individually significant as a percentage of total G&A expenses. |
The decrease in G&A expenses as a percentage of revenue attributable to personnel costs is primarily due to a decrease in incentive based compensation accruals as a lesser percentage of the estimated annual incentive payout was accrued during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The increase in professional fees was primarily related to an increase in legal fees during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period last year. The increase in legal expenses was due to an increase in legal activity related to the claims against CBIZ as described in Note 6 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Interest expense Interest expense decreased by $0.3 million to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $4.4 million for the comparable period in 2011. The decrease in interest expense was due to a net decrease of $0.5 million related to the 2006 Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes (2006 Notes), partially offset by an increase of $0.2 million related to the $275 million unsecured credit facility (credit facility). The decrease related to the 2006 Notes was a result of a decrease in average carrying value to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $26.6 million for the same period last year, as well a decrease in the amortization of the discount related to the 2006 Notes. The increase in interest related to the credit facility was primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding balance to $172.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to an average outstanding balance of $139.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The weighted average interest rate on the credit facility was 3.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. See Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of CBIZs debt arrangements.
Other (expense) income, net For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, other (expense) income, net is primarily comprised of gains and losses in the fair value of investments held in a rabbi trust related to the deferred compensation plan. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, losses in the fair value of investments related to the deferred compensation plan were $0.9 million compared to modest gains for the three months ended June 30, 2011. These adjustments do not impact CBIZs net income as they are offset by the corresponding decrease or increase to compensation expense which is recorded as operating and G&A expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
25
Income tax expense CBIZ recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $3.5 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was 37.6%, compared to an effective tax rate of 42.6% for the comparable period in 2011. The decrease in the effective tax rate primarily relates to the release of a valuation allowance on a state income tax credit carryforward during the second quarter of 2012.
Earnings per share and cash earnings per share Earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.12 and $0.14 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and cash earnings per share were $0.27 and $0.29 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company believes cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted share, which are non-GAAP measures, more clearly illustrate the impact of certain non-cash charges and credits to income from continuing operations and are a useful measure for the Company, its investors and its analysts. Management uses these performance measures to evaluate CBIZs business, including ongoing performance and the allocation of resources. Cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted share are provided in addition to the presentation of GAAP measures and should not be regarded as a replacement or alternative of performance under GAAP. The following is a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to cash earnings from operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to cash earnings per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

The increase in same-unit revenue was primarily the result of stronger performance in the units that provide certain national services. With respect to the accounting units, hours charged to clients declined approximately 1% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in hours was due to improved engagement efficiencies and a decrease in client demand in several local business units. Revenue from acquired businesses was the result of the acquisitions of Thompson Dunavant, which occurred on August 1, 2011, and to a lesser extent, the acquisition of Gresham Smith, which occurred on October 1, 2011.
CBIZ provides a range of services to affiliated CPA firms under joint referral and administrative service agreements (ASAs). Fees earned by CBIZ under the ASAs are recorded as revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income and were approximately $28.7 million and $26.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in ASA fees was the result of acquisitions and same unit improvements from groups performing national services.
The largest components of operating expenses for the Financial Services practice group are personnel costs, occupancy costs, and travel and related costs which represented 88.7% and 89.4% of total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs increased $4.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, and represented 78.7% and 79.5% of total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase was comprised of an increase in same-unit personnel costs of $1.4 million due to investments in resources at several units, including increased headcount at the National Units, and an increase of $2.7 million associated with the acquisition of Thompson Dunavant and Gresham Smith. Personnel costs represented 69.3% and 68.4% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Occupancy costs are relatively fixed in nature and were $5.9 million, or 5.9% of revenue, and $5.7 million, or 5.9% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Travel and related costs were $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $2.6 million for the same period in 2011, and were 2.9% and 2.7% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in travel and related costs was due to increased client development, professional staff training efforts and the impact of acquisitions. Bad debt expense increased $0.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period a year ago, and was 1.5% and 0.8% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and was associated with specific reserves on several clients.
Gross margin percentage decreased 2.0% and was 12.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 14.0% for the same period in 2011. The decrease in gross margin percentage was due mostly to higher same-unit personnel costs and increased bad debt expense.

The decrease in same-unit revenue was primarily attributable to declines in the Companys employee benefits and specialty life insurance businesses, offset by an increase in the human capital advisory business. The decrease in employee benefits revenues of $0.6 million is due to continued competitive
27
pressures as well a decline in volume-based carrier bonus payments. The decrease in specialty life revenues of $0.6 million is due to lower client demand for life insurance plans. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in the Companys human capital advisory revenues of $0.3 million due to an increase in demand for executive recruiting services.
The growth in revenue from acquisitions was provided by: Multiple Benefits Services, an employee benefits business located in Atlanta, Georgia that was acquired in the third quarter of 2011; PSA Insurance, a retirement advisory business located in Baltimore, Maryland that was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2011; Advantage Benefit Planning, an employee benefits business located in Pleasantville, New Jersey that was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2011; Meridian, a property and casualty insurance and employee benefits business headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida with an office in Atlanta, Georgia that was acquired in the first quarter of 2012; Strategic Employee Benefit Services, an employee benefits client list in the Chicago, Illinois market that was acquired in the first quarter of 2012; and PCI, an employee benefits business located in Cranston, Rhode Island, that was acquired in the second quarter of 2012.
The largest components of operating expenses for the Employee Services group are personnel costs, including commissions paid to third party brokers, and occupancy costs, representing 83.2% and 83.6% of total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs increased approximately $1.7 million, primarily as a result of the acquired businesses. Personnel costs represented 64.7% and 64.5% of revenue for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Occupancy costs are relatively fixed in nature and were $2.5 million and $2.4 million for the second quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in occupancy costs was entirely related to the acquired businesses.
The decrease in gross margin percent was primarily attributable to the revenue declines discussed above, which includes the declines in volume-based carrier bonus payments that have a direct negative impact on gross margin as there are no corresponding expenses associated with these revenues.

Same-unit revenue decreased 3.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 versus the comparable period in 2011. Revenue from existing, mature clients was down approximately 4.0% while revenue from new clients sold net of client terminations increased by approximately 0.5%. The decline in revenue from existing clients can be attributed to several factors including decreases in pricing and reimbursement rates and a change in the mix of procedures resulting in a decrease in the average revenue per procedure. The increase in revenue from new clients sold net of client terminations is due to sales volume from new clients exceeding revenue lost from client terminations. Client terminations are attributable to many factors including: physician groups losing their hospital contracts, clients moving their billing function in-house, changes in group ownership, hospital consolidations and increased competitive pressures.
The largest components of operating expenses for MMP are personnel costs, professional service fees for off-shore and electronic claims processing, occupancy costs and office expenses (primarily postage related to the Companys statement mailing services). These expenses represented 85.9% and 86.4% of total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Due to a reduction
28
in headcount, personnel costs decreased $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 55.2% from 55.8% for the comparable period in 2011. The reduction in headcount and related personnel costs in billing operations is due to the expanded utilization of off-shore processing, utilization of new technologies, as well as a response to the decline in revenue. Professional services increased by $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and increased as a percentage of revenue to 7.5% from 6.1% for the comparable period last year due to the increase in off-shore processing. Facilities costs decreased $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period last year, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 6.4% compared 6.7% for the comparable period in 2011. This decrease was due to the consolidation of certain offices. Office expenses decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, but remained at 7.7% of revenue for both periods.
The decrease in gross margin is the result of continued pricing and reimbursement pressure as described above.

The decrease in revenue was attributable to CBIZs mergers and acquisitions business completing a transaction and recording a success fee of $0.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011, and not closing a transaction in the three months ended June 30, 2012, thus recording no success fees in 2012. This decrease was partially offset by slight increases in services provided under a contractual relationship with CBIZs largest client, Edward Jones.
The largest components of operating expenses for the National Practices group are personnel costs, occupancy costs, and travel and related costs representing 94.5% and 95.2% of total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs for the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $0.2 million compared to the same period a year ago, but increased as a percentage of revenue to 83.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 78.0% for the same period in 2011. The decrease in personnel costs is primarily due to lower incentive compensation in the mergers and acquisitions business as no transactions were closed during 2012. Occupancy costs and travel and related costs were flat for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of a decrease in revenues combined with relatively flat operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.

The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue that was attributable to personnel costs was a result of increased staffing in certain locations as well as an increase in incentive compensation at those locations that exceeded profitability targets. The increase in travel and related costs as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to increased client development efforts. Personnel and other operating expenses are discussed in further detail under Operating Practice Groups.

Corporate general and administrative expenses Corporate G&A expenses increased by $1.9 million to $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $16.3 million for the comparable period of 2011, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 4.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 4.1% for the comparable period of 2011. The primary components of G&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are included in the following table:

(1) | Other G&A expenses include office expenses, equipment costs, occupancy costs, insurance expense and other expenses, none of which are individually significant as a percentage of total G&A expenses. |
The decrease in G&A expenses as a percentage of revenue attributable to personnel costs is primarily due to a decrease in incentive based compensation accruals as a lesser percentage of the estimated annual incentive payout was accrued during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The increase in professional fees was primarily related to an increase in legal expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period last year. The increase in legal expenses was due to an increase in legal activity related to the claims against CBIZ as described in Note 6 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Interest expense Interest expense decreased by $1.0 million to $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $9.3 million for the comparable period in 2011. The decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease of $1.3 million related to the 2006 Notes, offset by increases of $0.2 million related to the credit facility and $0.1 million related to the 2010 Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes (2010 Notes). The decrease related to the 2006 Notes was a result of a decrease in average carrying value to $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $32.9 million for the same period last year, as well a decrease in the amortization of the discount related to the 2006 Notes. The increase in interest related to the credit facility was due to an increase in the average outstanding balance, partially offset by a decrease in the average interest rate. The average outstanding balance was $166.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to an average outstanding balance of $132.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The weighted average interest rate on the credit facility was 3.2% and 3.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in interest expense related to the 2010 Notes was due to an increase in the amortization of the discount. See Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of CBIZs debt arrangements.
Gain on sale of operations, net The gain on sale of operations, net was $2.6 million and $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and is primarily due to the sale of the Companys individual wealth management business in the first quarter of 2011. A gain of $2.5 million recorded in the first six months of 2012 was the result of the completion of certain contingent provisions in the original wealth management sales agreement. The wealth management business was reported in the Employee Services practice group.
31
Other (expense) income, net Other (expense) income, net is primarily comprised of gains and losses in the fair value of investments held in a rabbi trust related to the deferred compensation plan and adjustments to contingent liabilities related to previous acquisitions. Gains in the fair value of investments related to the deferred compensation were $2.1 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These adjustments do not impact CBIZs net income as they are offset by the corresponding increase to compensation expense which is recorded as operating and G&A expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In addition, adjustments to contingent liabilities resulted in income of $0.1 million and $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Income tax expense CBIZ recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $16.9 million and $18.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 40.8%, compared to an effective tax rate of 42.8% for the same period in 2011. The decrease in the effective tax rate primarily relates to the release of a valuation allowance on a state income tax credit carryforward during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Earnings per share and cash earnings per share Earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.50 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash earnings per share were $0.79 and $0.78 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company believes cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted share, which are non-GAAP measures, more clearly illustrate the impact of certain non-cash charges and credits to income from continuing operations and are a useful measure for the Company, its investors and its analysts. Management uses these performance measures to evaluate CBIZs business, including ongoing performance and the allocation of resources. Cash earnings and cash earnings per diluted share are provided in addition to the presentation of GAAP measures and should not be regarded as a replacement or alternative of performance under GAAP. The following is a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to cash earnings from operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to cash earnings per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

The increase in same-unit revenue was primarily the result of stronger performance in the units that provide certain national services. Same-unit revenue for the accounting units for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was relatively flat. With respect to the accounting units, the decrease in hours of 1.1% offset the increase in effective rates of 1.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period last year. The decline in hours was due to improved engagement efficiencies and a decrease in client demand in several local business units. The improvement in rates realized for services provided was due to improved engagement efficiencies as well as a modest increase in effective rates realized for services provided. Revenue from acquired businesses was the result of the acquisitions of Thompson Dunavant, which occurred on August 1, 2011, and to a lesser extent, the acquisition of Gresham Smith, which occurred on October 1, 2011.
CBIZ provides a range of services to affiliated CPA firms under joint referral and ASAs. Fees earned by CBIZ under the ASAs are recorded as revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income and were approximately $69.7 million and $64.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in ASA fees was the result of acquisitions and same unit improvements from groups performing national services.
The largest components of operating expenses for the Financial Services practice group are personnel costs, occupancy costs, and travel and related costs which represented 89.4% and 89.3% of total operating expenses for the first six months of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs increased $11.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, and represented 79.9% and 79.7% of total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase was comprised of an increase in same-unit personnel costs of $5.3 million due to increased headcount, particularly at the National Units and, to a lesser extent, an increase in incentive compensation costs due to improved overall profitability, and an increase of $5.7 million associated with the acquisition of Thompson Dunavant and Gresham Smith. Personnel costs represented 63.8% and 63.0% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Occupancy costs are relatively fixed in nature and were $12.1 million, or 5.2% of revenue, and $11.7 million, or 5.3% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Travel and related costs were $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $4.8 million for the same period in 2011, and were 2.4% and 2.2% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in travel and related costs was due to increased client development, professional staff training efforts and the impact of acquisitions.
33
Gross margin percentage decreased 0.8% and was 20.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 21.0% for the same period in 2011 due mostly to increased personnel costs and, to a lesser extent, an increase in other operating costs.

The decrease in same-unit revenue was primarily attributable to declines in the Companys employee benefits and specialty life insurance businesses, offset by an increase in the payroll services, human capital advisory and property and casualty businesses. The decrease in employee benefits revenues of $1.4 million is due to continued competitive pressures as well a decline in volume-based carrier bonus payments. The decrease in specialty life revenues of $0.9 million is due to lower client demand for life insurance plans. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in the Companys payroll services business of $0.7 million due to higher pricing trends for payroll and related services, an increase in the Companys human capital advisory revenues of $0.7 million due to an increase in demand for executive recruiting services and an increase in property and casualty brokerage revenues of $0.4 million due to pricing increases.
The growth in revenue from acquisitions was provided by: Multiple Benefits Services, an employee benefits business located in Atlanta, Georgia that was acquired in the third quarter of 2011; PSA Insurance, a retirement advisory business located in Baltimore, Maryland that was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2011; Advantage Benefit Planning, an employee benefits business located in Pleasantville, New Jersey that was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2011; Meridian, a property and casualty insurance and employee benefits business headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida with an office in Atlanta, Georgia that was acquired in the first quarter of 2012; Strategic Employee Benefit Services, an employee benefits client list in the Chicago, Illinois market that was acquired in the first quarter of 2012; and PCI, an employee benefits business located in Cranston, Rhode Island, that was acquired in the second quarter of 2012.
The largest components of operating expenses for the Employee Services group are personnel costs, including commissions paid to third party brokers, and occupancy costs, representing 83.2% and 83.4% of total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs increased approximately $3.9 million, primarily as a result of the acquired businesses. Personnel costs represented 63.8% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Occupancy costs are relatively fixed in nature and were $5.1 million and $4.9 million for the first six months of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in occupancy costs was entirely related to the acquired businesses.
The decrease in gross margin percent was primarily attributable to the revenue declines discussed above, which includes the declines in volume-based carrier bonus payments that have a direct negative impact on gross margin as there are no corresponding expenses associated with these revenues.

Same-unit revenue decreased 4.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the comparable period in 2011. Approximately 69% of the decrease is attributable to decreased revenues from existing clients, with the remaining 31% attributable to client terminations, net of new business sold. The decline in revenue from existing clients can be attributed to several factors including decreases in pricing and reimbursement rates and a change in the mix of procedures resulting in a decrease in the average revenue per procedure. The decline in revenue from client terminations was attributable to many reasons including: physician groups losing their hospital contracts, clients moving their billing function in-house, changes in group ownership, hospital consolidations and increased competitive pressures.
The largest components of operating expenses for MMP are personnel costs, professional service fees for off-shore and electronic claims processing, occupancy costs and office expenses (primarily postage related to the Companys statement mailing services). These expenses represented 86.3% and 86.4% of total operating expenses for the first six months of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Due to a reduction in headcount, personnel costs decreased $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, but increased slightly as a percentage of revenue to 57.0% from 56.7% for the comparable period in 2011. The reduction in headcount and related personnel costs in billing operations is due to the expanded utilization of off-shore processing, utilization of new technologies, as well as a response to the decline in revenue. Professional services increased by $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and increased as a percentage of revenue to 7.0% from 6.1% due to the increase in off-shore processing. Office expenses decreased $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, but remained 7.7% of revenue for both periods. Facilities costs decreased $0.4 million for the first six months of 2012, and decreased slightly as a percentage of revenue to 6.5% versus 6.8% in the comparable period in 2011 due to the consolidation of certain offices.
The decrease in gross margin is the result of the continued pricing and reimbursement pressure as described above.

The decrease in same-unit revenue was attributable to CBIZs mergers and acquisitions business completing two transactions and recording success fees of $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, and not closing a transaction during the six months ended June 30, 2012, thus recording no success fees in 2012. This decrease was partially offset by slight increases in services provided under a contractual relationship with CBIZs largest client, Edward Jones.
35
The largest components of operating expenses for the National Practices group are personnel costs, occupancy costs, and travel and related costs representing 91.5% and 92.3% of total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Personnel costs for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $0.2 million compared to the same period a year ago, but increased as a percentage of revenue to 83.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 77.9% for the same period last year. The decrease in personnel costs is primarily due to lower incentive compensation in the mergers and acquisitions business as no transactions were closed during the first six months of 2012. Occupancy costs and travel and related costs were flat for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of a decrease in revenues combined with relatively flat operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Financial Condition
Total assets were $822.8 million at June 30, 2012, an increase of $10.5 million versus December 31, 2011. Current assets of $293.6 million exceeded current liabilities of $200.3 million by $93.3 million at June 30, 2012.
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $1.5 million to $3.1 million at June 30, 2012 from December 31, 2011. Restricted cash was $21.8 million at June 30, 2012, a decrease of $1.9 million from December 31, 2011. Restricted cash represents those funds held in connection with CBIZs Financial Industry Regulatory Authority regulated business and funds held in connection with the pass through of insurance premiums to various carriers. Cash and restricted cash fluctuate during the year based on the timing of cash receipts and related payments.
Accounts receivable, net, were $164.1 million at June 30, 2012, an increase of $27.0 million from December 31, 2011, and days sales outstanding (DSO) from continuing operations was 81 days, 71 days and 80 days at June 30, 2012, December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. DSO represents accounts receivable (before the allowance for doubtful accounts) and unbilled revenue (net of realization adjustments) at the end of the period, divided by trailing twelve month daily revenue. CBIZ provides DSO data because such data is commonly used as a performance measure by analysts and investors and as a measure of the Companys ability to collect on receivables in a timely manner.
Other current assets were $10.7 million and $11.4 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Other current assets are primarily comprised of prepaid assets. Balances may fluctuate during the year based upon the timing of cash payments and amortization of prepaid expenses.
Funds held for clients (current and non-current) and the corresponding client fund obligations relate to CBIZs payroll services business. The balances in these accounts fluctuate with the timing of cash receipts and the related cash payments. Client fund obligations can differ from funds held for clients due to changes in the market values of the underlying investments. The nature of these accounts is further described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in CBIZs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Property and equipment, net, decreased by $0.9 million to $20.9 million at June 30, 2012 from $21.8 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease is primarily the result of depreciation and amortization expense of $3.0 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $2.1 million. CBIZs property and equipment is primarily comprised of software, hardware, furniture and leasehold improvements.
Goodwill and other intangible assets, net, increased by $7.1 million at June 30, 2012 from December 31, 2011. This increase for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is comprised of $14.6 million in additions to intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and contingent purchase price adjustments, partially offset by $7.5 million of amortization expense.
36
Assets of the deferred compensation plan represent participant deferral accounts and are directly offset by deferred compensation plan obligations. Assets of the deferred compensation plan were $37.4 million and $33.6 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The increase in assets of the deferred compensation plan of $3.8 million consisted of net participant contributions of $1.6 million and an increase in the fair value of the investments of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The plan is described in further detail in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
The accounts payable balances of $46.7 million and $35.0 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, reflect amounts due to suppliers and vendors; balances fluctuate during the year based on the timing of cash payments. Accrued personnel costs were $30.8 million and $33.7 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, and represent amounts due for payroll, payroll taxes, employee benefits and incentive compensation. Balances fluctuate during the year based on the timing of payments and adjustments to the estimate of incentive compensation costs.
Notes payable current decreased by $12.8 million to $1.2 million at June 30, 2012 from $14.0 million at December 31, 2011. Notes payable balances and activity are primarily guaranteed purchase price payments and contingent proceeds earned by previously acquired businesses. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, payments on guaranteed purchase price and notes attributable to contingent proceeds relating to previously acquired businesses were approximately $14.0 million. These payments were partially offset by additions to notes payable current of $1.2 million related to current year acquisitions.
Other liabilities (current and non-current) increased by $1.2 million to $56.1 million at June 30, 2012 from $54.9 million at December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to the addition of approximately $2.2 million of estimated contingent purchase price liabilities and $0.8 million of guaranteed purchase price related to a 2012 business acquisition, an increase of $2.3 million related to the acquisition of a client list and an increase of $2.0 million related to the self-funded health insurance plan. These increases were partially offset by recognition of $4.0 million of deferred purchase price on the sale of the Companys individual wealth management business that was effective January 1, 2011, payments on contingent purchase price liabilities of $1.7 million and a decrease of $0.4 million related to accrued commissions.
Income taxes payablecurrent was $6.6 million at June 30, 2012 versus income taxes refundable of $3.9 million at December 31, 2011. The income taxes refundable balance at December 31, 2011 occurred as CBIZ made estimated tax payments that exceeded the tax liabilities CBIZ expected to incur with its 2011 income tax filings. Income taxes payablecurrent at June 30, 2012 primarily represents the provision for current income taxes less estimated tax payments. Income taxes payable non-current at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $4.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively, and represents the accrual for uncertain tax positions.
CBIZs 2006 Notes and 2010 Notes are carried at face value less unamortized discount. The $1.3 million increase in the carrying value of the convertible notes at June 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 represents amortization of the discount which is recognized as non-cash interest expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The convertible notes are further disclosed in Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Bank debt for amounts due on CBIZs credit facility increased $4.2 million to $149.2 million at June 30, 2012 from $145.0 million at December 31, 2011. This increase was primarily attributable to payments of $23.1 million related to acquisitions and earnouts, purchases of $4.5 million of CBIZs common stock and $2.1 million of capital expenditures. These increases were partially offset by $25.6 million of funds provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Stockholders equity increased by $23.2 million to $283.4 million at June 30, 2012 from $260.2 million at December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to net income of $24.6 million, CBIZs stock award programs which contributed $2.0 million and the issuance of $1.1 million in common shares related to business acquisitions and contingent payments related to prior acquisitions. These increases were partially offset by $4.5 million related to the repurchase of 0.7 million shares of CBIZ common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
CBIZs principal source of net operating cash is derived from the collection of fees and commissions for professional services and products rendered to its clients. CBIZ supplements net operating cash with a $275 million unsecured credit facility and $130 million in 2010 Notes.
CBIZ maintains a $275 million unsecured credit facility with Bank of America as agent bank for a group of seven participating banks. The credit facility also has a letter of credit sub-facility. At June 30, 2012, CBIZ had $149.2 million outstanding under its credit facility and had letters of credit and performance guarantees totaling $7.7 million. Available funds under the credit facility, based on the terms of the commitment, were approximately $8.8 million at June 30, 2012. Management believes that cash generated from operations, combined with the available funds from the credit facility, provides CBIZ the financial resources needed to meet business requirements for the foreseeable future, including capital expenditures and working capital requirements.
The credit facility also allows for the allocation of funds for strategic initiatives, including acquisitions and the repurchase of CBIZ common stock. Under the credit facility, CBIZ is required to meet certain financial covenants with respect to (i) minimum net worth; (ii) maximum total and senior leverage ratios; and (iii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. CBIZ believes it is in compliance with its covenants as of June 30, 2012. CBIZs ability to service its debt and to fund strategic initiatives will depend upon its ability to generate cash in the future.
In addition to the debt instruments previously mentioned, CBIZ may obtain, at a future date, additional funding by offering securities or debt through public or private markets.

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities represent net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. CBIZ typically experiences a net use of cash from operations during the first quarter of its fiscal year, as accounts receivable balances grow in response to the seasonal increase in first quarter revenue generated by the Financial Services practice group (primarily for accounting and tax services). This net use of cash is followed by strong operating cash flow during the second and third quarters, as a significant amount of revenue generated by the Financial Services practice group during the first four months of the year are billed and collected in subsequent quarters.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities was $25.6 million and primarily consisted of net income of $24.6 million and non-cash adjustments to net income of $15.8 million. Partially offsetting these sources of cash were changes in working capital items of $12.2 million and a net gain on the sale of operations and discontinued operations transactions of $2.6 million. The non-cash adjustments to net income primarily consist of depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of the discount on convertible notes and deferred financing fees, stock based compensation expense, deferred income tax expense, and adjustments to contingent purchase price liabilities. Net changes in working capital were primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable due to an increase in revenues and days sales outstanding, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable due to the Companys efforts to manage payables, and income taxes payable resulting from the timing of payments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was $22.9 million and primarily consisted of net income of $24.5 million and non-cash adjustments to net income of $12.6 million. Partially offsetting these sources of cash were changes in working capital items of $11.3 million and a net gain on the sale of operations and discontinued operations transactions of $2.3 million. The non-cash adjustments to net income primarily consist of depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of the discount on convertible notes and deferred financing fees, stock based compensation expense, deferred income tax expense, and adjustments to contingent purchase price liabilities. Net changes in working capital were primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable due to an increase in revenues and days sales outstanding, partially offset by an increase in income taxes payable resulting from the timing of payments. Cash used by discontinued operations was $0.6 million.
Investing Activities
CBIZs investing activities typically consist of: payments for business acquisitions and client lists, contingent payments associated with business acquired prior to 2009, purchases of capital equipment, net activity related to funds held for clients, and proceeds received from sales of divestitures and discontinued operations. Capital expenditures consisted of investments in technology, leasehold improvements and purchases of furniture and equipment.
Net cash flows provided by investing activities were $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $29.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily consisted of net activity related to funds held for clients of $26.6 million and proceeds from the sale of divested and discontinued operations of $1.2 million. These sources of cash were partially offset by $21.1 million of net cash used for acquisitions and contingent payments on prior acquisitions and capital expenditures of $2.1 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, investing uses of cash primarily consisted of $10.9 million of net cash used for contingent payments on prior acquisitions, net activity related to funds held for clients of $18.6 million, and capital expenditures of $0.9 million. These uses of cash were partially offset by $0.7 million of proceeds from the sale of divested and discontinued operations.
Financing Activities
CBIZs financing cash flows typically consist of net borrowing and payment activity from the credit facility, the issuance and repayment of debt instruments, repurchases of CBIZ common stock, net change in client fund obligations, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $28.8 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $6.3 million. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily consisted of $26.5 million in net activity related to client fund obligations, $4.5 million used to repurchase shares of CBIZ common stock, $1.8 million in payments for contingent consideration included as part of the initial measurement of prior business acquisitions, and payment on notes payable of $0.2 million. These uses of cash were partially offset by $4.2 million in net borrowings from the credit facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, financing sources of cash included $30.1 million in net proceeds on the credit facility, net change of $16.2 million in client fund obligations as a result of timing of cash received and payments made, and $0.9 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options (including tax benefits). These sources of cash were substantially offset by uses of cash which included $39.3 million used to repay the 2006 Notes, $0.6 million used to repurchase shares of CBIZ common stock, $0.6 million in cash used to pay for debt issuance costs related to the amendment of the credit facility, $0.3 million in payments for contingent consideration included as part of the initial measurement of prior business acquisitions, and payment on notes payable of $0.1 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
CBIZ maintains administrative service agreements with independent CPA firms (as described more fully in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011), which qualify as variable interest entities. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect the operations or accounts of variable interest entities as the impact to CBIZ is not material to the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of CBIZ.
CBIZ provides guarantees of performance obligations for a CPA firm with which CBIZ maintains an administrative service agreement. Potential obligations under the guarantees totaled $5.2 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. CBIZ has recognized a liability for the fair value of the obligations undertaken in issuing these guarantees. The liability is recorded as other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. CBIZ does not expect it will be required to make payments under these guarantees.
CBIZ provides letters of credit to landlords (lessors) of its leased premises in lieu of cash security deposits, which totaled $2.5 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. In addition, CBIZ provides license bonds to various state agencies to meet certain licensing requirements. The amount of license bonds outstanding at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 totaled $2.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
40
CBIZ has various agreements under which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Generally, these indemnification clauses are included in contracts arising in the normal course of business under which the Company customarily agrees to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements, related to matters such as title to assets sold and certain tax matters. Payment by CBIZ under such indemnification clauses is generally conditioned upon the other party making a claim. Such claims are typically subject to challenge by CBIZ and to dispute resolution procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, CBIZs obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount and, in some instances, CBIZ may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by CBIZ. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to the conditional nature of CBIZs obligations and the unique facts of each particular agreement. Historically, CBIZ has not made any payments under these agreements that have been material individually or in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2012, CBIZ was not aware of any material obligations arising under indemnification agreements that would require payment.
Interest Rate Risk Management
CBIZ periodically uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure. The interest rate swaps effectively mitigate CBIZs exposure to interest rate risk, primarily through converting portions of the floating rate debt under the credit facility, to a fixed rate basis. These agreements involve the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. At June 30, 2012 and 2011, CBIZ had an interest rate swap with a $40.0 million notional amount, of which $25 million will expire in June 2014 and the remaining $15 million will expire in June 2015. Management will continue to evaluate the potential use of interest rate swaps as it deems appropriate under certain operating and market conditions. CBIZ does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
CBIZ carries $130.0 million in 2010 Notes bearing a fixed interest rate of 4.875% that mature on October 1, 2015 and may not be converted before July 31, 2015. CBIZ believes the fixed nature of these borrowings mitigates its interest rate risk.
In connection with payroll services provided to clients, CBIZ collects funds from its clients accounts in advance of paying these client obligations. These funds held for clients are segregated and invested in accordance with the Companys investment policy, which requires all investments carry an investment grade rating at the time of initial investment. The interest income on these investments mitigates the interest rate risk for the borrowing costs of CBIZs credit facility, as the rates on both the investments and the outstanding borrowings against the credit facility are based on market conditions.
Critical Accounting Policies
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are most important to the portrayal of a companys financial condition and results and that require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There have been no material changes to CBIZs critical accounting policies from the information provided in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under the heading Critical Accounting Policies in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Valuation of Goodwill
Goodwill impairment testing between annual testing dates may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. A further description of assumptions used in the Companys annual impairment testing are provided in CBIZs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There was no goodwill impairment during the year ended December 31, 2011 or during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
41
CBIZ reviewed the significant assumptions that it used in its goodwill impairment analysis to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit was less than its carrying value. The analyses focused on managements current expectations of future cash flows, as well as current market conditions and other qualitative factors that impact various economic indicators that are utilized in assessing fair value. Based on these analyses and the lack of any other evidence or significant event, it was determined that the Company did not have any triggering events requiring it to perform a goodwill assessment during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-05) Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which states that comprehensive income should be presented in either one or two consecutive financial statements. Companies will have the option to either present other comprehensive income on the same statement as net income, or as a separate statement that immediately follows the statement of net income. ASU 2011-05 was effective for the first reporting period after December 15, 2011, and was applied retrospectively. CBIZ adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-05 for the first quarter of 2012.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 (ASU 2011-04) Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 provides a consistent definition of fair value to ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 does not extend the use of fair value, but rather provides additional disclosure guidance about the application of fair value in those areas where fair value is already required or permitted, especially for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for the first reporting period after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied prospectively. CBIZ adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-04 for the first quarter of 2012 and has provided additional disclosure in its discussion of fair value, especially for the Companys Level 3 fair value disclosures.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report, including without limitation, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations regarding CBIZs financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives for future performance are forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements are commonly identified by the use of such terms and phrases as intends, believes, estimates, expects, projects, anticipates, foreseeable future, seeks, and words or phrases of similar import in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated services, sales efforts, expenses, and financial results. From time to time, the Company also may provide oral or written forward-looking statements in other materials the Company releases to the public. Any or all of the Companys forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in any other public statements that the Company makes are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions the Company might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or assumptions materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: CBIZs ability to adequately manage its growth; CBIZs dependence on the services of its CEO and other key employees; competitive pricing pressures; general business and economic conditions; changes in governmental regulation and tax laws affecting its operations; reversal or decline in the current trend of outsourcing business services; revenue seasonality or fluctuations in and collectability of receivables; liability for errors and omissions of the Companys businesses; regulatory investigations and future regulatory activity (including without limitation inquiries into compensation arrangements within the insurance brokerage industry); and reliance on information processing systems and availability of software licenses. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed.
42
A more detailed description of risk factors may be found in CBIZs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Except as required by the federal securities laws, CBIZ undertakes no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures the Company makes on related subjects in its filings with the SEC, such as quarterly, periodic and annual reports.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
CBIZs floating rate debt under its credit facility exposes the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results when the maturity or repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are different. A change in the Federal Funds Rate, or the reference rate set by Bank of America, N.A., would affect the rate at which CBIZ could borrow funds under its credit facility. CBIZs balance outstanding under its credit facility at June 30, 2012 was $149.2 million. If market rates were to increase or decrease 100 basis points from the levels at June 30, 2012, interest expense would increase or decrease approximately $1.1 million annually.
CBIZ does not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments. CBIZ periodically uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure. The interest rate swaps effectively modify the Companys exposure to interest rate risk, primarily through converting portions of its floating rate debt under the credit facility to a fixed rate basis. These agreements involve the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. At June 30, 2012, CBIZ had an interest rate swap with a $40.0 million notional amount, of which $25 million will expire in June 2014 and the remaining $15 million will expire in June 2015. Management will continue to evaluate the potential use of interest rate swaps as it deems appropriate under certain operating and market conditions.
In connection with CBIZs payroll business, funds held for clients are segregated and invested in short-term investments, such as corporate and municipal bonds. In accordance with the Companys investment policy, all investments carry an investment grade rating at the time of the initial investment. At each respective balance sheet date, these investments are adjusted to fair value with fair value adjustments being recorded to other comprehensive income or loss and reflected on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the respective period. If an adjustment is deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired due to credit loss, then the adjustment is recorded to Other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. See Notes 7 and 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding these investments and the related fair value assessments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (Disclosure Controls) as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation (Controls Evaluation) was done with the participation of CBIZs Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Disclosure Controls are controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that CBIZ files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure Controls include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by CBIZ in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
43
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management, including the Companys CEO and CFO, does not expect that its Disclosure Controls or its internal control over financial reporting (Internal Controls) will prevent all error and all fraud. Although CBIZs Disclosure Controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objective, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of a control system are met. Further, any control system reflects limitations on resources, and the benefits of a control system must be considered relative to its costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within CBIZ have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of a control. A design of a control system is also based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
Conclusions
The Companys Disclosure Controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and, based upon the Controls Evaluation, the Companys CEO and CFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, CBIZs Disclosure Controls were effective at that reasonable assurance level.
(b) Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Companys Internal Controls that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, CBIZs Internal Controls.
44
In May, June, July, August and September of 2010, CBIZ, Inc. and its subsidiary, CBIZ MHM, LLC (fka CBIZ Accounting, Tax & Advisory Services, LLC) (the CBIZ Parties), were named as defendants in lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Robert Facciola, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.) and in the Superior Court for Maricopa County Arizona (Victims Recovery, LLC v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; Roger Ashkenazi, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; Mary Marsh, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.; and ML Liquidating Trust v. Mayer Hoffman McCann PC, et al.), respectively. The Maricopa County cases were removed to the United States District Court or Bankruptcy Court and all have since been remanded to the Superior Court for Maricopa County. Additionally, in November 2009, CBIZ MHM, LLC was named as a defendant in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Jeffery C. Stone v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.). The Stone case has been voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff in that matter.
These matters arise out of the bankruptcy proceedings related to Mortgages Ltd., a mortgage lender to developers in the Phoenix, Arizona area. Various other professional firms not related to the Company are also defendants in these lawsuits. The motion phase of these proceedings has commenced.
The plaintiffs, except for those in the Stone and ML Liquidating Trust cases, are all alleged to have directly or indirectly invested in real estate mortgages through Mortgages Ltd. The Victims Recovery, Ashkenazi and Marsh plaintiffs seek monetary damages equivalent to the amounts of their investments. The plaintiff in the ML Liquidating Trust matter asserts errors and omissions and breach of contract claims, and is seeking monetary damages. The plaintiffs in these suits also seek pre- and post-judgment interest, punitive damages and attorneys fees.
Mortgages Ltd. had been audited by Mayer Hoffman McCann PC (Mayer Hoffman), a CPA firm which has an administrative services agreement with CBIZ. The claims against the CBIZ Parties seek to impose auditor-type liabilities upon the CBIZ Parties for audits it did not conduct. Specific claims include securities fraud, common law fraud, negligent misrepresentation, Arizona Investment Management Act violations, control-person liability, aiding and abetting and conspiracy. CBIZ is not a CPA firm, does not provide audits, and did not audit any of the entities at issue in these lawsuits.
In June 2011 the Facciola court, in which the plaintiffs were seeking to certify a class of all Mortgages Ltd. investors, granted the motions to dismiss filed by the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. After that dismissal order, the plaintiffs moved the court to amend their complaint in an attempt to state a claim against the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. In November 2011, the Facciola court denied the plaintiffs request to amend the complaint as to the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman. The Facciola case is now proceeding only against the remaining defendants.
The CBIZ Parties deny all allegations of wrongdoing made against them in these actions and are vigorously defending the proceedings. The Company has been advised by Mayer Hoffman that it denies all allegations of wrongdoing made against it and that it intends to continue vigorously defending the matters. Although the proceedings are subject to uncertainties inherent in the litigation process and the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, management believes that the allegations are without merit and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2012 the CBIZ Parties were added as defendants to a lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of California for Orange County (Signature Financial Group, Inc., et al, (Signature) v. Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C., et al). This lawsuit arises out of a review of the financial statements of Medical Capital Holdings, Inc. (Medical Capital) by Mayer Hoffman. In June 2009 Medical Capital was sued by the SEC and a receiver was appointed to liquidate Medical Capital. The plaintiffs in the Signature lawsuit are financial advisors that sold Medical Capital investments to their clients. Those plaintiffs were sued by their clients for losses related to Medical Capital and now seek to recover damages from the CBIZ Parties and Mayer Hoffman for the losses and expenses they incurred in litigation with their respective clients and lost profits. The Signature lawsuit seeks to impose auditor-type liabilities upon the CBIZ Parties for attest services they did not conduct. Specific claims include fraud, intentional misrepresentation and concealment; negligent misrepresentation; equitable indemnity; declaratory relief and respondeat superior.

The CBIZ Parties deny all allegations of wrongdoing made against them in the Signature lawsuit and are vigorously defending the proceeding. The Company has been advised by Mayer Hoffman that it denies all allegations of wrongdoing made against it and that it intends to continue vigorously defending the matters.

In addition to those items disclosed above, the Company is, from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of such proceedings is not presently determinable, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. These risks could materially and adversely affect the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of CBIZ.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
(a) Recent sales of unregistered shares
On May 1, 2012, in connection with the acquisition of Primarily Care, Inc., CBIZ paid cash and issued 33,930 shares of common stock to acquire substantially all of the assets of the company. The above referenced shares were issued in transactions not involving a public offering in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The persons to whom the shares were issued had access to full information about distribution. The certificates for the shares contain a restrictive legend advising that the shares may not be offered for sale, sold, or otherwise transferred without having first been registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act. See Note 12 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for more information regarding acquisitions.
(c) Issuer purchases of equity securities
Periodically, CBIZs Board of Directors authorizes a Share Repurchase Plan, which allows the Company to purchase shares of its common stock in the open market or in a privately negotiated transaction according to SEC rules. On February 22, 2012, CBIZs Board of Directors authorized a Share Repurchase Plan which authorized the purchase of up to 5.0 million shares of CBIZ common stock. The Share Repurchase Plan is effective beginning April 1, 2012 and expires one year from the effective date. The repurchase plan does not obligate CBIZ to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended at any time. In addition, pursuant to an agreement (the Westbury Agreement) entered into on September 14, 2010 by CBIZ with its largest shareholder, Westbury (Bermuda) Ltd. (Westbury), a company organized by CBIZ founder Michael G. DeGroote, CBIZ purchased an option for $5.0 million, which expires on September 30, 2013, to purchase up to approximately 7.7 million shares of CBIZs common stock at a price of $7.25 per share, which constitutes the remaining shares of CBIZs common stock held by Westbury.
