PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on this Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) are not purely historical statements and discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or financial condition, or state other forward-looking information. Those statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The "forward-looking" information is based on various factors and was derived using numerous assumptions. In some cases, you can identify these so-called forward-looking statements by words like “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of those words and other comparable words. You should be aware that those statements only reflect our predictions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual events or results may differ substantially. Important factors that could cause our actual results to be materially different from the forward-looking statements include (but are not limited to) the following:


(1)	the impact of the general economy and economic uncertainty on our business;


(2)	risks associated with potential changes to federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations, and policies;


(3)	risks associated with the operation of our business generally, including:

a. client demand for our services and solutions;

b. maintaining a balance of our supply of skills and resources with client demand;

c. effectively competing in a highly competitive market;

d. protecting our clients’ and our data and information;

e. risks from international operations including fluctuations in exchange rates;

f. changes to immigration policies;

g. obtaining favorable pricing to reflect services provided;

h. adapting to changes in technologies and offerings;

i. risk of loss of one or more significant software vendors;

j. making appropriate estimates and assumptions in connection with preparing our consolidated financial statements;

k. maintaining effective internal controls; and

l. changes to tax levels, audits, investigations, tax laws or their interpretation;


(4)	legal liabilities, including intellectual property protection and infringement or the disclosure of personally identifiable information;


(5)	risks associated with managing growth organically and through acquisitions; and


(6)	the risks detailed from time to time within our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

This discussion is not exhaustive, but is designed to highlight important factors that may impact our forward-looking statements. Because the factors referred to above, as well as the statements included under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, including documents incorporated by reference therein and herein, could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q to conform such statements to actual results.

All forward-looking statements, express or implied, included in this report and the documents we incorporate by reference and that are attributable to Perficient, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “Perficient,” or the “Company”) are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that the Company or any persons acting on our behalf may issue.

NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2018

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Perficient, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, certain note disclosures have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed with the SEC in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 may not be indicative of the results for the full year ending December 31, 2018.

Certain prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. This reclassification relates to reimbursable expenses, which have been combined with services revenues and cost of services within revenues and cost of revenues in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements.

Except for the accounting policies related to revenue recognition that were updated as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), there have been no changes to significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2018, that have had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. See Note 4, Revenue, for updated policies related to revenue recognition.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU No. 2014-09 replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. In 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. In 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations, ASU No. 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU No. 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients and ASU No. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, all of which further amended ASU No. 2014-09. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings within stockholders’ equity. The Company has determined that the most significant impact upon adoption was to third-party software and hardware revenue, which was primarily recorded on a gross basis as the principal in the transaction through December 31, 2017 and presented on a net basis as the agent as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of the standard also resulted in minor changes to the timing of revenue recognition. As the agent, revenue from multi-year sales of third-party software and support is recognized upfront as the performance obligation is fulfilled, rather than annually as invoiced to the customer. Additionally, variable consideration related to service contracts, such as volume discounts and holdbacks, are recognized earlier under the new standard in certain instances. The impact from these timing changes was immaterial as of January 1, 2018, and therefore, did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The adoption of the standard also resulted in increases to accounts receivable, net and deferred revenue within other current liabilities for those contracts under which the Company’s right to consideration is unconditional. Refer to Impacts of ASC Topic 606 Adoption on Current Period Results below for the impact of adopting ASC Topic 606 on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 and the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. There was no material impact on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 and its amendments also resulted in additional disclosures around the nature and timing of performance obligations, contract costs, and deferred revenue, as well as significant judgments and practical expedients used by the Company. See Note 4, Revenue, for these disclosures.

Impacts of ASC Topic 606 Adoption on Current Period Results

The impacts of ASC Topic 606 adoption on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 are as follows (in thousands):

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases, and creates a new topic, ASC Topic 842, Leases. This update requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all leases, including operating leases, with a term greater than 12 months on its balance sheet. The update also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. This update is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Currently, ASU No. 2016-02 requires companies to adopt the requirements of the new standard by applying a modified retrospective approach to the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. However, the FASB issued an exposure draft in January 2018, which may allow companies the option to instead apply the provisions of the new standard at the effective date without adjusting the comparative periods presented. While the Company is currently assessing the impact ASU No. 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company expects the primary impact upon adoption will be the recognition, on a discounted basis, of its minimum commitments under noncancellable operating leases on its consolidated balance sheets resulting in the recording of right of use assets and lease obligations. Current minimum commitments under noncancellable operating leases are disclosed in Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies.

4. Revenue

The Company’s revenues consist of services and software and hardware sales. Revenues are recognized when control of these services or goods are transferred to clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods.

For a description of the Company’s revenue recognition policy prior to January 1, 2018 under ASC Subtopic 985-605, Software – Revenue Recognition, ASC Subtopic 605-25, Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements, and ASC Section 605-10-S99 (Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13, Revenue Recognition), refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The following discussion relates to the Company’s revenue recognition policy, effective January 1, 2018, under ASC Topic 606.

Services Revenues

Services revenues are primarily comprised of professional services that include developing, implementing, automating and extending business processes, technology infrastructure, and software applications. The Company’s professional services span multiple industries, platforms and solutions; however, the Company has remained relatively diversified and does not believe that it has significant revenue concentration within any single industry, platform or solution.

Professional services revenues are recognized over time as services are rendered. Most projects are performed on a time and materials basis, while a portion of revenues is derived from projects performed on a fixed fee or fixed fee percent complete basis. For time and material contracts, revenues are generally recognized and invoiced by multiplying the number of hours expended in the performance of the contract by the billing rates established in the contract. For fixed fee contracts, revenues are generally recognized and invoiced by multiplying the fixed rate per time period established in the contract by the number of time periods elapsed. For fixed fee percent complete contracts, revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours, and the client is invoiced according to the agreed-upon schedule detailing the amount and timing of payments in the contract. Clients are typically billed monthly for services provided during that month, but can be billed on a more or less frequent basis as determined by the contract. If the time is worked and approved at the end of a fiscal period and the invoice has not yet been sent to the client, the amount is recorded as revenue once the Company verifies all other revenue recognition criteria have been met, and the amount is classified as a receivable as the right to consideration is unconditional at that point. Amounts invoiced and collected in excess of revenues recognized are contract liabilities, which are classified as deferred revenues in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The term between invoicing and payment due date is not significant. Contracts for professional services provide for a general right, to the client or the Company, to cancel or terminate the contract within a given period of time (generally 10 to 30 days’ notice is required). The client is responsible for any time and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation or termination of the contract. Certain contracts may include volume discounts or holdbacks, which are accounted for as variable consideration under ASC Topic 606, but are not typically significant. The Company estimates variable consideration based on historical experience and forecasted sales and includes the variable consideration in the transaction price.

Other services revenues are comprised of hosting fees, partner referral fees, maintenance agreements, training and internally developed software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) sales. Revenues from hosting fees, maintenance agreements, training and internally developed SaaS sales are generally recognized over time using a time-based measure of progress as services are rendered. Partner referral fees are recorded at a point in time upon meeting specified requirements set by each partner to earn the respective fee.

On many professional service projects, the Company is also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses including travel and other project-related expenses. These reimbursements are included as a component of the transaction price of the respective professional services contract and are invoiced as the expenses are incurred. The Company structures its professional services arrangements to recover the cost of reimbursable expenses without a markup.

Software and Hardware Revenues

Software and hardware revenues are comprised of third-party software and hardware resales, in which the Company is considered the agent, and sales of internally developed software, in which the Company is considered the principal. Third-party software and hardware revenues are recognized and invoiced when the Company fulfills its obligation to arrange the sale, which occurs when the purchase order with the vendor is executed and the customer has access to the software or the hardware has been shipped to the customer. Internally developed software revenues are recognized and invoiced when control is transferred to the customer, which occurs when the software has been made available to the customer and the license term has commenced. Revenues from third-party software and hardware sales are recorded on a net basis, while revenues from internally developed software sales are recorded on a gross basis. There are no significant cancellation or termination-type provisions for the Company’s software and hardware sales, and the term between invoicing and payment due date is not significant.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

Arrangements with clients may contain multiple promises such as delivery of software, hardware, professional services or post-contract support services. These promises are accounted for as separate performance obligations if they are distinct. For arrangements with clients that contain multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations based on estimated relative standalone selling price, which is estimated by the expected cost plus a margin approach, taking into consideration market conditions and competitive factors.

Contract Costs

In accordance with the terms of the Company’s sales commission plan, commissions are not earned until the related revenue is recognized. Therefore, sales commissions are expensed as they are incurred. Certain sales incentives are accrued based on achievement of specified bookings goals. For these incentives, the Company applies the practical expedient that allows the Company to expense the incentives as incurred, since the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Deferred Revenue

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, $3.8 million was recognized in revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period. The changes in deferred revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are as follows (in thousands):



Balance at December 31, 2017	$	3,278
Impact of ASC Topic 606 adoption (offset to Accounts Receivable)	2,806
Opening balance at January 1, 2018	6,084
Deferral of revenue	6,418
Recognition of deferred revenue	(7,127		)
Other	(390		)
Balance at June 30, 2018	$	4,985

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

Due to the ability of the client or the Company to cancel or terminate the contract within a given period of time (generally 10 to 30 days’ notice is required), the majority of the Company’s contracts have a term of less than one year. Perficient does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original maturity date of one year or less or time and materials contracts for which the Company has the right to invoice for services performed. Revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations for remaining contracts as of June 30, 2018 was immaterial.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under this guidance, the Company recognizes share-based compensation ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period, which is generally three years. In addition, the Company has elected to estimate the amount of expected forfeitures when calculating share-based compensation, instead of accounting for forfeitures as they occur. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.

Stock Award Plans

The Company’s Second Amended and Restated 2012 Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Incentive Plan”) allows for the granting of various types of stock awards, not to exceed a total of 7.0 million shares, to eligible individuals. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the Incentive Plan and determines the terms of all stock awards made under the Incentive Plan. As of June 30, 2018, there were 2.6 million shares of common stock available for issuance under the Incentive Plan.

Stock-based compensation cost recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $4.1 million and $8.0 million, respectively, which included $0.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of expense for retirement savings plan contributions. The associated current and future income tax benefits recognized were $0.8 million and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Stock-based compensation cost recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was approximately $3.6 million and $7.3 million, respectively, which included $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of expense for retirement savings plan contributions. The associated current and future income tax benefits recognized were $1.1 million and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, there was $20.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based awards with a weighted-average remaining life of two years.

Restricted stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was as follows (shares in thousands):

8. Business Combinations

2017 Acquisitions

Acquisition of RAS

On January 3, 2017, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of RAS through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company’s total allocable purchase price consideration was $10.4 million. The purchase price was comprised of $7.1 million in cash paid and $2.1 million in Company common stock issued at closing reduced by $0.6 million as a result of a net working capital adjustment settled in Company common stock surrendered by RAS in 2017. The purchase price also included $1.8 million representing the initial fair value estimate of additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration, which was not realized by RAS. The amount of goodwill deductible for tax purposes was $3.7 million.

Acquisition of Clarity

On June 22, 2017, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Clarity, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company’s total allocable purchase price consideration was $41.7 million. The purchase price was comprised of $30.7 million in cash paid and $7.3 million in Company common stock issued at closing reduced by $0.4 million as a result of the net working capital adjustment settled in Company common stock surrendered by Clarity in February 2018. The purchase price also included $4.1 million representing the initial fair value estimate of additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration with a maximum cash payout of $9.2 million. Clarity achieved the maximum cash payout pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and, as a result, the Company has accrued $9.2 million of contingent consideration as of June 30, 2018. The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes, excluding contingent consideration, is $22.1 million.

2018 Acquisitions

Acquisition of Southport

On April 2, 2018, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Southport, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement. The acquisition of Southport expands the Company’s expertise in business intelligence and data warehousing services.

The Company has initially estimated the total allocable purchase price consideration to be $18.5 million. The purchase price was comprised of $11.3 million in cash paid and $2.7 million in Company common stock issued at closing increased by $0.3 million for an estimated net working capital adjustment due to the seller. The purchase price also included $4.2 million representing the initial fair value estimate of additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration, which may be realized by the seller twelve months after the closing date of the acquisition with a maximum cash payout of $6.6 million. The Company incurred approximately $0.8 million in transaction costs, which were expensed when incurred.

As part of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of Southport, the Company issued common stock to owners of Southport, who are continuing with the Company, with restrictions limiting the ability to sell the common stock which lapse over a certain period or over an accelerated period upon meeting specified employment milestones. As such, an estimated $0.3 million of the common stock value was attributed to future compensation and recorded as an asset within “Other current assets” and “Other non-current assets” in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the acquisition date, to be amortized over the requisite service period.

The Company has estimated the allocation of the total purchase price consideration between tangible assets, identified intangible assets, liabilities, and goodwill as follows (in millions):



Acquired tangible assets	$	4.2
Identified intangible assets	5.6
Liabilities assumed	(1.8		)
Goodwill	10.5
Total purchase price	$	18.5

The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes, excluding contingent consideration, is $7.1 million.

The above purchase price accounting estimates are pending finalization of the intangible assets and contingent consideration valuation and a net working capital settlement that is subject to final adjustment as the Company evaluates information during the measurement period.

The following table presents details of the intangible assets acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2018 (dollars in millions):



	Weighted Average Useful Life	Estimated Useful Life	Aggregate Acquisitions

9. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, or net liabilities assumed, in a business combination. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, the Company performs an annual impairment review in the fourth quarter and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. There was no indication that goodwill became impaired as of June 30, 2018.

Other intangible assets include customer relationships, non-compete arrangements, trade names, customer backlog, and internally developed software, which are being amortized over the assets’ estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from less than one year to ten years. Amortization of customer relationships, non-compete arrangements, trade names, customer backlog, and internally developed software is considered an operating expense and is included in “Amortization” in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its identifiable intangible assets, taking into consideration any events or circumstances that might result in a lack of recoverability or revised useful life.

10. Long-term Debt

On June 9, 2017, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and the other lenders parties thereto. The Credit Agreement replaced the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2013 between the Company, Silicon Valley Bank and the other lenders and signatories thereto (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings up to a maximum principal amount of $125.0 million, subject to a commitment increase of $75.0 million. All outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement become due and payable no later than the final maturity date of June 9, 2022.

The Credit Agreement also allows for the issuance of letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million at any one time; outstanding letters of credit reduce the credit available for revolving credit borrowings. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had one outstanding letter of credit for $0.3 million. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged to secure the credit facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the Company’s option of the prime rate (5.00% on June 30, 2018) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or one month LIBOR (2.09% on June 30, 2018) plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%. The Company incurs an annual commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.20% on the unused portion of the line of credit. The additional margin amount and annual commitment fee are dependent on the level of outstanding borrowings. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $68.7 million of unused borrowing capacity.

The Company is required to comply with various financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. Specifically, the Company is required to maintain a ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) plus stock compensation to interest expense for the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and a ratio of indebtedness to EBITDA plus stock compensation (“Leverage Ratio”) of not more than 3.00 to 1.00. Additionally, the Credit Agreement currently restricts the payment of dividends that would result in a pro-forma Leverage Ratio of more than 2.00 to 1.00.

At June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

11. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. income tax returns or the statute of limitations has passed on returns for the years through 2010. The Company’s 2011 through 2015 U.S. income tax returns are currently under examination by the IRS. The IRS has sought to disallow research credits in total of $2.5 million on the Company’s 2011, 2012 and 2013 U.S. income tax returns. The Company has exhausted all administrative appeals and formal mediation and has filed suit to resolve this dispute. A preliminary court date has been set by the U.S. Tax Court for November 5, 2018. The Company believes the research credits taken are appropriate and intends to vigorously defend its position. An amount of adjustment, if any, and the timing of such adjustment are not reasonably possible to estimate at this time. The total amount of research credits taken or expected to be taken in the Company’s income tax returns for 2011 through June 30, 2018 is $9.6 million.

Under the provisions of the ASC Subtopic 740-10-25, Income Taxes - Recognition, the Company had an unrecognized tax benefit of $3.3 million (inclusive of $0.3 million of interest) as of June 30, 2018.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 26.2% and 24.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 68.4% and 57.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act”), as well as the one-time tax impact of the determination in the second quarter of 2017 that the foreign earnings of the Company's Chinese subsidiary were no longer permanently reinvested. As of June 30, 2018, the Company’s net non-current deferred tax liability was $8.0 million. Deferred tax liabilities relate to goodwill, intangibles, fixed asset depreciation, and prepaid expenses. Net non-current deferred tax liabilities are recorded in “Other non-current liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 (unaudited) and December 31, 2017.

In general, it is the Company’s practice and intention to reinvest the earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries in those operations. However, during the second quarter of 2017, the Company determined that as a result of changes in the business and macroeconomic environment, the foreign earnings of the Company’s Chinese subsidiary were no longer permanently reinvested and may repatriate available earnings from time to time. A provision for the expected current and deferred taxes on the repatriation of earnings was recorded in the amount of $2.5 million during the second quarter of 2017. Approximately $1.6 million of this provision was reversed during the fourth quarter of 2017 due to the adoption of the 2017 Tax Act. Management intends to continue to permanently reinvest all other remaining current and prior earnings in its other foreign subsidiaries.

Excluding China, foreign unremitted earnings of entities not included in the United States tax return have been included in the consolidated financial statements without giving effect to the United States taxes that may be payable on distribution to the United States because it is not anticipated such earnings will be remitted to the United States. Under current applicable tax laws, if the Company elects to remit some or all of the funds it has designated as indefinitely reinvested outside the United States, the amount remitted would be subject to non-U.S. withholding taxes. As of June 30, 2018, the aggregate unremitted earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred income tax liability has not been recorded was approximately $8.1 million, and the unrecognized deferred tax liability on unremitted earnings was approximately $0.4 million.

U.S. Tax Reform

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted the 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act significantly revised the ongoing U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering U.S. corporate income tax rates and implementing a territorial tax system. The SEC has issued rules that would allow for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the 2017 Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. Based on a continued analysis of the estimates and further guidance on the application of the law, it is anticipated that additional revisions may occur throughout the allowable measurement period. However, there have been no changes in estimates or additional guidance during the current quarter which would change the Company’s assessment of the tax impacts recorded as of the prior year end. The Company currently anticipates finalizing and recording any resulting adjustments within a year of the enactment date.

12. Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. Currency exposure is monitored and managed by the Company as part of its risk management program which seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that market volatility could have on operating results. The Company's derivative financial instruments consist of non-deliverable foreign currency forward contracts. Derivative financial instruments are neither held nor issued by the Company for trading purposes.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Both the gain or loss on the derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. Realized gains or losses and changes in the estimated fair value of foreign currency forward contracts that have not been designated as hedges were a net loss of $0.1 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. A net gain of $0.1 million was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in net other expense (income) and net interest expense in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are offset by losses and gains on the related hedged items. The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2018 was immaterial.

The notional amounts of the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding were as follows (in thousands):



	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Derivatives not designated as hedges
Foreign exchange contracts	$	3,065	$	3,979
Total derivatives not designated as hedges	$	3,065	$	3,979

13. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation related to employee claims, contractual disputes and taxes in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of such matters, currently the Company has no reason to believe the disposition of any current matter could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or the ability to carry on any of its business activities.

In June 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase software licenses for internal use payable over a two year period. As a result, the Company has recorded $0.8 million in “Other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 (unaudited).

The Company leases office space and certain equipment under various operating lease agreements. The Company has the option to extend the term of certain lease agreements. Future minimum commitments under these lease agreements as of June 30, 2018 were as follows (in thousands):



	Operating Leases
2018 remaining	$	3,434
2019	6,977
2020	6,639
2021	5,138
2022	3,288
Thereafter	3,609
Total minimum lease payments	$	29,085

Rent expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively. Rent expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $2.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

14. Subsequent Events

Acquisition of Stone Temple Consulting Corporation

On July 16, 2018, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Stone Temple Consulting Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (“Stone Temple”), pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement. The Asset Purchase Agreement provided for approximately $9.9 million of cash to be paid at closing, subject to a net working capital adjustment, approximately 48,360 shares of Company common stock to be issued at closing and a maximum potential payout for additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration of $2.6 million, which may be realized by the seller twelve months after the closing date of the acquisition. The acquisition of Stone Temple expands the Company’s capabilities in search engine marketing and digital content services.

Goodwill and intangible assets are expected to be recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet from the acquisition of Stone Temple. As of August 2, 2018, the initial accounting for the business combination has not been completed, including the measurement of certain intangible assets and goodwill. Acquisition costs related to Stone Temple for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were immaterial.

Adoption of ASC Topic 606

As further detailed in Note 3, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, in the Notes to Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements we adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC Topic 606), on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The most significant impact upon adoption was to third-party software and hardware revenue, which was primarily recorded on a gross basis as the principal in the transaction through December 31, 2017 and presented on a net basis as the agent beginning on January 1, 2018. Since the change in presentation was applied prospectively and prior period results were not restated, the adoption of the new standard resulted in significantly lower software and hardware revenues and costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The impact of adopting ASC Topic 606 to services revenues and costs was immaterial.

Services Revenues

Services revenues are derived from professional services that include developing, implementing, integrating, automating and extending business processes, technology infrastructure, and software applications. Professional services revenues are recognized over time as services are rendered. Most of our projects are performed on a time and materials basis, while a portion of our revenues is derived from projects performed on a fixed fee basis. For time and material projects, revenues are recognized and billed by multiplying the number of hours our professionals expend in the performance of the project by the established billing rates. For fixed fee contracts, revenues are recognized and billed by multiplying the established fixed rate per time period by the number of time periods elapsed. For fixed fee percent complete projects, revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours. Fixed fee percent complete engagements represented 7% of our services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. On most projects, we are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses including travel and other project-related expenses. These reimbursements are included as a component of the transaction price of the respective professional services contract. The aggregate amount of reimbursed expenses will fluctuate depending on the location of our clients, the total number of our projects that require travel, and whether our arrangements with our clients provide for the reimbursement of such expenses. In conjunction with services provided, we occasionally receive referral fees under partner programs. These referral fees are recognized at a point in time when earned and recorded within services revenues.

Software and Hardware Revenues

Software and hardware revenues are derived from sales of third-party software and hardware resales, in which we are considered the agent, and sales of internally developed software, in which we are considered the principal. Revenues from sales of third-party software and hardware are recorded on a net basis, while revenues from internally developed software sales are recorded on a gross basis. Software and hardware revenues are expected to fluctuate depending on our clients’ demand for these products.

There are no significant cancellation or termination-type provisions for our software and hardware sales. Contracts for our professional services provide for a general right, to the client or us, to cancel or terminate the contract within a given period of time (generally 10 to 30 days’ notice is required). The client is responsible for any time and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation or termination of the contract.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenues consists of costs of services and software and hardware costs. Costs of services consists primarily of cash and non-cash compensation and benefits (including bonuses and non-cash compensation related to equity awards), costs associated with subcontractors, reimbursable expenses and other project-related expenses. Cost of revenues does not include depreciation of assets used in the production of revenues which are primarily personal computers, servers, and other information technology related equipment. Upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 on January 1, 2018, sales of third party software and hardware were presented on a net basis, and as such, third-party software and hardware costs are no longer presented within cost of revenue.

Our cost of services as a percentage of services revenues is affected by the utilization rates of our professionals (defined as the percentage of our professionals’ time billed to clients divided by the total available hours in the respective period), the salaries we pay our professionals, and the average billing rate we receive from our clients. If a project ends earlier than scheduled, we retain professionals in advance of receiving project assignments, or demand for our services declines, our utilization rate will decline and adversely affect our cost of services as a percentage of services revenues.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses are primarily composed of sales-related costs, general and administrative salaries, stock compensation expense, office costs, recruiting expense, variable compensation costs, marketing costs and other miscellaneous expenses. We have access to sales leads generated by our software vendors, most notably IBM, Oracle and Microsoft, whose products we use to design and implement solutions for our clients. These relationships enable us to optimize our selling costs and sales cycle times and increase win rates through leveraging our partners’ marketing efforts and endorsements.

Plans for Growth and Acquisitions

Our goal is to continue to build one of the leading information technology consulting firms by expanding our relationships with existing and new clients and through the continuation of our disciplined acquisition strategy. Our future growth plan includes expanding our business with a primary focus on customers in the United States, both organically and through acquisitions. We also intend to further leverage our existing offshore capabilities to support our future growth and provide our clients flexible options for project delivery.

When analyzing revenue growth by base business compared to acquired companies in the Results of Operations section below, revenue attributable to base business includes revenue from an acquired company that has been owned for a full four quarters after the date of acquisition.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to three months ended June 30, 2017

Revenues. Total revenues increased 4% to $121.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $117.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Services revenues increased 12% to $120.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $107.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Services revenues attributable to our base business increased by $1.1 million while services revenues attributable to acquired companies was $12.0 million, resulting in a total increase of $13.2 million.

Software and hardware revenues decreased 90% to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of the net presentation of third party software and hardware sales upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09.

Cost of Revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization, discussed separately below). Cost of revenues increased 3% to $79.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $77.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Cost of services increased 14% to $79.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $69.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to higher headcount in response to higher services revenues and acquisitions. Services costs as a percent of services revenues increased to 65.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 64.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily driven by lower utilization percentage for our billable resources. The average bill rate for our professionals was $123 per hour for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Software and hardware costs decreased to zero for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of the net presentation of third party software and hardware sales upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09.

Selling, General and Administrative. SG&A expenses increased 7% to $27.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $26.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to increases in salaries and training costs. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of service revenues, decreased to 23.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 24.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to higher service revenues.

Depreciation. Depreciation expense decreased 15% to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Depreciation expense as a percentage of revenues was 0.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 1.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Amortization. Amortization expense increased 17% to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in amortization expense was due to the addition of intangible assets from the Southport acquisition early in the second quarter of 2018 and the Clarity acquisition late in the second quarter of 2017. Amortization expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 3.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Acquisition Costs. Acquisition-related costs were $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Costs were incurred for legal, accounting, tax, investment bank and advisor fees, and valuation services performed by third parties in connection with merger and acquisition-related activities.

Adjustment to Fair Value of Contingent Consideration. An adjustment of $0.1 million was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2018 for the accretion of the fair value estimate for the revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Clarity and Southport. An adjustment of $0.6 million was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2017 which represents the net impact of the fair market value adjustments to the RAS and Bluetube, LLC (“Bluetube”) additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration liability in addition to the accretion of the fair value estimate for the additional revenue and earnings-based contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Bluetube, RAS and Clarity.

Provision for Income Taxes. We provide for federal, state and foreign income taxes at the applicable statutory rates adjusted for non-deductible expenses. Our effective tax rate decreased to 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 68.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to the passage of the 2017 Tax Act, which lowered the U.S. corporate income tax rate beginning in 2018, as well as the one-time tax impact of the determination in the second quarter of 2017 that the foreign earnings of the Company's Chinese subsidiary were no longer permanently reinvested.

Six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to six months ended June 30, 2017

Revenues. Total revenues increased 6% to $242.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $228.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Services costs as a percent of services revenues increased to 65.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 65.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily driven by a decline in the average bill rate. The average bill rate for our professionals decreased to $124 per hour for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $125 per hour for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to a decrease in the average bill rate of subcontractors. Software and hardware costs decreased to zero for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of the net presentation of third party software and hardware sales upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09.

Our effective tax rate decreased to 24.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 57.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to the passage of the 2017 Tax Act, which lowered the U.S. corporate income tax rate beginning in 2018, as well as the one-time tax impact of the determination in the second quarter of 2017 that the foreign earnings of the Company's Chinese subsidiary were no longer permanently reinvested.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Selected measures of liquidity and capital resources are as follows (in millions):



	As of June 30, 2018		As of December 31, 2017

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company determined that the Chinese subsidiary’s earnings were no longer permanently reinvested and may repatriate available earnings from time to time. See Note 11, Income Taxes, in the Notes to Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

(2) Working capital is total current assets less total current liabilities.

Net Cash (Used In) Provided By Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we drew down $117.5 million from our line of credit, repaid $116.5 million on our line of credit, used $10.2 million to repurchase shares of our common stock through the stock repurchase program and used $2.9 million to remit taxes withheld as part of a net share settlement of restricted stock vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we drew down $154.0 million from our line of credit.

We also paid $1.3 million to settle the contingent consideration for the purchase of Market Street and Enlighten and made $0.4 million in payments for credit facility financing fees.

Availability of Funds from Bank Line of Credit Facility

On June 9, 2017, we entered into a Credit Agreement, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and the other lenders parties thereto. The Credit Agreement replaced the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2013 between the Company, Silicon Valley Bank and the other lenders and signatories thereto (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings up to a maximum principal amount of $125.0 million, subject to a commitment increase of $75.0 million. All outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement become due and payable no later than the final maturity date of June 9, 2022.

The Credit Agreement also allows for the issuance of letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million at any one time; outstanding letters of credit reduce the credit available for revolving credit borrowings. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had one outstanding letter of credit for $0.3 million. Substantially all of our assets are pledged to secure the credit facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at our option of the prime rate (5.00% on June 30, 2018) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or one-month LIBOR (2.09% on June 30, 2018) plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%. We incur an annual commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.20% on the unused portion of the line of credit. The additional margin amount is dependent on the level of outstanding borrowings. As of June 30, 2018, we had $68.7 million of maximum borrowing capacity.

At June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Stock Repurchase Program

Prior to 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $135.0 million of our common stock. On February 20, 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the expansion of our stock repurchase program by authorizing the repurchase of up to an additional $25.0 million of our common stock for a total repurchase program of $160.0 million and extended the expiration date of the program from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019. The program could be suspended or discontinued at any time, based on market, economic, or business conditions. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by our management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, and other factors.

From time to time, we establish a written trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, pursuant to which we make a portion of our stock repurchases. Additional repurchases will be at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate and will be made through open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors.

Since the program’s inception on August 11, 2008, we have repurchased approximately $145.2 million (12.8 million shares) of our outstanding common stock through June 30, 2018.

Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in lease obligations in the first six months of 2018. See Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further description of our contractual obligations.

As of June 30, 2018, there was $56.0 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement as compared to $55.0 million as of December 31, 2017. The amounts are classified as “Long-term debt” within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2018 (unaudited) and December 31, 2017 and will become due and payable no later than the final maturity date of June 9, 2022.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Conclusion

Of the total cash and cash equivalents reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 (unaudited) of $10.4 million, $4.7 million was held by the Company’s Canadian, Indian and United Kingdom subsidiaries and is considered to be indefinitely reinvested in those operations. The Company is able to fund its liquidity needs outside of these subsidiaries, primarily through cash flows generated by domestic operations and our credit facility. Therefore, the Company has no current plans to repatriate cash from these foreign subsidiaries in the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2018, the aggregate unremitted earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred income tax liability has not been recorded was approximately $8.1 million, and the unrecognized deferred tax liability on unremitted earnings was approximately $0.4 million. As of June 30, 2018, $2.9 million of the total cash and cash equivalents was held by the Company's Chinese subsidiary. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company determined that the Chinese subsidiary's earnings were no longer permanently reinvested and may repatriate available earnings from time to time. See Note 11, Income Taxes, in the Notes to Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

We believe that the currently available funds, access to capital from our credit facility, and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements and other capital needs for the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies are fully described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and Note 4, Revenue, to our Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We believe our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition, purchase accounting and related fair value measurements and accounting for income taxes.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We believe our exposure to market risks is immaterial.

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates because we generate a portion of our revenues and incur a portion of our expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As of June 30, 2018, we were exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee, British Pound, and Euro. We hedge material foreign currency exchange rate exposures when feasible using forward contracts. These instruments are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk. Credit risk is managed through careful selection and ongoing evaluation of the financial institutions utilized as counter parties. Refer to Note 12, Financial Instruments, in the Notes to Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

As of June 30, 2018, there was $56.0 million outstanding and $68.7 million of available borrowing capacity under our credit facility. Our interest expense will fluctuate as the interest rate for the line of credit floats based, at our option, on the prime rate plus a margin or the one-month LIBOR rate plus a margin. Based on the $56.0 million outstanding on the line of credit as of June 30, 2018, an increase in the interest rate of 100 basis points would add $0.6 million of interest expense per year, which is not considered material to our financial position or results of operations.

We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $10.4 million at June 30, 2018 and $6.3 million at December 31, 2017. The unrestricted cash and cash equivalents are primarily held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers have determined that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

As part of the adoption of ASC Topic 606, the Company implemented changes to our control activities related to revenue recognition to ensure adequate evaluation of our contracts and proper assessment of the impact of the new accounting standard. There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new standard, and no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Stock Repurchase Program

Prior to 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $135.0 million of our common stock.

The program could be suspended or discontinued at any time, based on market, economic, or business conditions. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by our management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, and other factors.

Since the program’s inception on August 11, 2008, we have repurchased approximately $145.2 million (12.8 million shares) of our outstanding common stock through June 30, 2018.

Unregistered Sales of Securities

On April 2, 2018, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Southport. The consideration paid in this transaction included 153,217 shares of Company common stock issued at closing with an aggregate value of approximately $3.4 million based on the average closing sales price for the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the date immediately before the acquisition’s closing date. We relied on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the basis for exemption from registration for this issuance. These shares were issued in a privately negotiated transaction and not pursuant to a public solicitation.
