NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A — Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of PRGX Global, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.
     For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
     Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2009 amounts to conform to the presentation in 2010. During the first quarter of 2010 the Company adopted new accounting policies which were required for revenue and cost recognition related to contracts for services which are included in the Company’s New Services reporting segment. Such new policies generally provide that revenue recognition be deferred until the completion of the services being provided. Such new policies also provide that when revenue recognition is deferred, certain costs which are considered to be direct and incremental in relation to the services being performed are also deferred and recognized in the same period as the related revenue.
     During the second quarter of 2010, management revised certain fixed asset estimated useful lives used for the purpose of calculating depreciation expense. Such change in estimate resulted from a review of management’s planned fixed asset replacement cycle. Based on this new fixed asset replacement cycle anticipated useful lives for fixed assets are three years for computer laptops, four years for desktops, five years for IT server, storage and network equipment, five years for furniture and fixtures and three years for purchased software. The impact of the change in estimate on the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were reductions in depreciation expense of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 is expected to decline by $0.3 million as a result of the change.
     New Accounting Standards
     FASB ASC 985-605. In September 2009, the EITF reached final consensus on Issue 08-1, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“Issue 08-1”), which will update FASB ASC 985-605 “Software-Revenue Recognition” and changes the accounting for certain revenue arrangements. The new requirements change the allocation methods used in determining how to account for multiple payment streams and will result in the ability to separately account for more deliverables, and potentially less revenue deferrals. Additionally, Issue 08-1 requires enhanced disclosures in financial statements. Issue 08-1 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010 on a prospective basis, with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of Issue 08-1 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
     FASB ASC Update No. 2010-26. In October 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts (“ASU No. 2010-26”). ASU No. 2010-26 clarifies which costs relating to the acquisition of new or renewal insurance qualify for deferral (deferred acquisition costs), and which should be expensed as incurred. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2010-26 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Diluted earnings (loss) per common share
  $ 0.11     $ 0.27     $ (0.04 )   $ 0.57  
 
                       
     For the three months ended September 30, 2010, options to purchase 1.8 million shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period and were therefore antidilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, 0.1 million Performance Units related to the Company’s 2006 Management Incentive Plan and options to purchase 2.3 million shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share due to their antidilutive effect to loss per common share. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, options to purchase 1.7 million shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the periods and were therefore antidilutive. The number of common shares used in the earnings per common share computations for both the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2010 include 1.2 million nonvested restricted shares and 0.3 million nonvested restricted share units which are considered to be participating securities. The number of common shares used in the earnings per common share computations for both the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2009 include 1.0 million nonvested restricted shares and 0.2 million nonvested restricted share units which are considered to be participating securities.
Note C — Stock-Based Compensation
     The Company currently has outstanding awards granted under the following three stock-based compensation plans: (1) the Stock Incentive Plan, (2) the 2006 Management Incentive Plan (“2006 MIP”) and (3) the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (“2008 EIP”) (collectively, the “Plans”). The Plans are described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

     Management evaluates the performance of its operating segments based upon revenues and measures of profit or loss it refers to as EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) as adjusted for unusual and other significant items that management views as distorting the operating results of the various segments from period to period. Adjustments include restructuring charges, stock-based compensation, bargain purchase gains, acquisition obligations classified as compensation, intangible asset impairment charges, litigation settlements, severance charges and foreign currency gains and losses on intercompany balances viewed by management as individually or collectively significant.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
comprehensive income in condensed financial statements of interim periods issued to shareholders. For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s consolidated comprehensive income was $2.6 million and $6.5 million, respectively. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s consolidated comprehensive income (loss) was $(0.6) million and $13.2 million, respectively. The difference between consolidated comprehensive income (loss), as disclosed here, and traditionally determined consolidated net earnings (loss), as set forth on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited), results from foreign currency translation adjustments.
Note F - Cash Equivalents
     Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, certain investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit.
     At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $20.2 million and $33.0 million, respectively, of which cash equivalents represented approximately $9.3 million and $20.7 million, respectively. The Company had $7.6 million and $17.1 million in cash equivalents at U.S. banks at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries held $1.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively, in temporary investments. Most of the temporary investments held by international subsidiaries at September 30, 2010 were held in Brazil.
Note G - Long Term Debt
     On January 19, 2010, the Company entered into a four-year revolving credit and term loan agreement with SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”). The SunTrust credit facility consists of a $15.0 million committed revolving credit facility and a $15.0 million term loan. The SunTrust credit facility is guaranteed by the Company and all of its material domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. Availability under the SunTrust revolver is based on eligible accounts receivable and other factors.
     The principal portion of the SunTrust term loan must be repaid in quarterly installments of $0.8 million each which commenced in March 2010. The loan agreement requires mandatory prepayments with the net cash proceeds from certain asset sales, equity offerings and insurance proceeds received by the Company. The loan agreement also requires an annual additional prepayment contingently payable based on an excess cash flow calculation as defined in the agreement. The first such payment is payable in April 2011. The remaining balance of the SunTrust term loan is due in January 2014. As of September 30, 2010, there were no outstanding borrowings under the SunTrust revolver. Interest on both the revolver and term loan are payable monthly and accrued at an index rate using the one-month LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin as determined by the loan agreement. The applicable interest rate margin varies from 2.25% per annum to 3.5% per annum, dependent on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and is determined in accordance with a pricing grid under the SunTrust loan agreement. The Company also must pay a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum, payable monthly, on the unused portion of the $15.0 million SunTrust revolving credit facility. The Company made mandatory principal payments on its SunTrust term loan totaling $2.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
     The Company used substantially all the funds from the SunTrust term loan to prepay in full the $14.2 million outstanding under the Ableco LLC (“Ableco”) term loan. In conjunction with entering into the new credit facility, $1.4 million of unamortized deferred loan costs from the Ableco LLC term loan were written off in January 2010. No draw under the SunTrust revolver was necessary in connection with the prepayment and termination of the Ableco term loan. See the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 for additional information regarding the former Ableco credit facility (including term loan) that was outstanding during the first nine months of 2009 and for the first 19 days of 2010.
     In September 2010 the Company entered into an amendment of its SunTrust credit facility, lowering the required minimum adjusted EBITDA and fixed charge coverage ratio through December 31, 2010. In October 2010 the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with SunTrust related to the $3.0 million principal portion of the loan due in January 2014 and the $0.8 million portion due December 2013. The interest rate swap agreement

effectively changed the index rate applicable to those principal components from a variable rate of interest tied to LIBOR to a fixed index rate of 1.23%.
     Total debt outstanding at September 30, 2010 was $12.8 million which represented the outstanding balance on the SunTrust term loan.
     The Company made mandatory principal payments of $3.8 million on its previously outstanding Ableco term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Note H - Commitments and Contingencies
     Legal Proceedings
     In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in and subject to various claims, contractual disputes and other uncertainties. Management, after reviewing with legal counsel all of these actions and proceedings, believes that the aggregate losses, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Note I - Fair Value Measurements
     Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“FASB ASC 820”), for all financial instruments and non-financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

     In accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 350, the Company tests its goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The annual impairment tests are based on fair value measurements using Level 3 inputs primarily consisting of estimated discounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets. As of the date of the last test, which was October 1, 2009, management concluded that there was no impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets as of that date. FASB ASC 350 requires that intangible assets with finite lives be amortized over their expected lives.

     Debt and capital lease obligations of $12.8 million and $14.3 million as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, are reported at their unpaid balances as of those dates based on their effective borrowing rates and repayment terms when originated. Management believes that the fair values of such instruments are approximately equal to their carrying values as of those dates. Fair value measurements of debt and capital lease obligations are based on Level 2 inputs as defined in FASB ASC 820 (significant other observable inputs). Significant other observable inputs would include effective borrowing rates for comparable instruments given the Company’s perceived credit risk.
Note J - Business Acquisitions
     Etesius Limited
     In February 2010, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Etesius Limited (“Etesius”), a privately-held European provider of purchasing and payables technologies and spend analytics based in Chelmsford, United Kingdom. The Etesius acquisition is allowing the Company to expand its New Services offering, more specifically, its business analytics and advisory services businesses.
     The financial terms of the Etesius share purchase agreement (“SPA”) required an initial payment to the Etesius shareholders of $2.8 million and a $0.3 million payment for obligations on behalf of Etesius shareholders which resulted in a total estimated purchase price value of approximately $3.1 million.
     The SPA requires deferred payments to certain selling shareholders who are now employees of the Company of $1.2 million over four years from the date of the SPA. The SPA also provides for potential additional variable payments (“earn-out”) to such selling shareholders/employees over such four-year period based on the financial performance of certain of the Company’s services lines, up to a maximum of $3.8 million. Because the Company will not be obligated to make the deferred and earn-out payments upon the termination of employment of these employees under certain circumstances, these payments will be recognized as compensation expense if earned.
     The preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and purchase price is summarized as follows (in thousands):
         
Fair values of net assets acquired:
       
Equipment
  $ 18  
Software
    3,207  
Intangible assets, primarily customer relationships
    1,565  
Deferred tax liabilities
    (1,168 )
Working capital
    (489 )
 
     
Fair value of net assets acquired
  $ 3,133  
 
     
 
       
Fair value of purchase price
  $ 3,133  
 
     
     The estimated fair values of intangible assets were based on management’s estimates of future discounted cash flows to be generated by the acquired business over the estimated duration of those cash flows. The estimated cash flows were based on management’s projection of future revenues, cost of revenues, capital expenditures, working capital needs and tax rates. Although the cash flow projections are based on Etesius historical performance, there could be an unforeseen change in the business that could negatively impact the estimated future cash flows which would negatively impact the value of the intangible assets. Management estimated the duration of the cash flows based on its projected useful life of the assets and business acquired. The discount rate was determined based on specific business risk, cost of capital and other factors.

     First Audit Partners LLP
     Effective July 16, 2009, the Company’s UK subsidiary acquired the business and certain assets of First Audit Partners LLP (“FAP”), a privately-held European provider of recovery audit services based in Cambridge, United Kingdom. The business and assets of FAP have been integrated into the Company’s European operations (included in the Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific operating segment) and expanded the growing list of major European retailers to whom the Company provides services.
     The financial terms of the FAP Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) are denominated in British pounds sterling; parenthetical references to U.S. dollar equivalents below are based on the foreign exchange rates as of the acquisition date. The APA required an initial payment to the FAP owners of ₤1.0 million ($1.6 million) and required additional deferred payments of ₤0.5 million ($0.8 million) in January 2010 and ₤0.8 million ($1.3 million) in July 2010. Additional variable consideration (“earn-out”) may also be due based on the operating results generated by the acquired business over the next four years. The Company recorded an additional ₤1.3 million ($2.1 million) payable based on management’s estimate of the earn-out liability. The earn-out liability was calculated based on estimated future discounted cash flows to be generated by the acquired business over a four year period. The discount rate was determined based on specific business risk, cost of capital and other factors. The total estimated purchase price was valued at approximately $5.8 million.
     The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and purchase price is summarized as follows (in thousands):
         
Fair values of assets acquired:
       
Equipment
  $ 56  
Current assets, primarily work in progress
    741  
Intangible assets, primarily customer relationships
    7,830  
 
     
 
    8,627  
 
       
Fair value of purchase price
    5,839  
 
     
 
       
Gain on bargain purchase
    2,788  
 
       
Transaction costs
    (400 )
 
     
 
       
Gain on bargain purchase, net
  $ 2,388  
 
     
     The estimated fair values of intangible assets were based on management’s estimates of future discounted cash flows to be generated by the acquired business over the estimated duration of those cash flows. The estimated cash flows were based on management’s projection of future revenues, cost of revenues, capital expenditures, working capital needs and tax rates. Although the cash flow projections are based on FAP’s historical performance, combined with experience with similar clients in the same market, there could be an unforeseen change in the business that could negatively impact the estimated future cash flows which would negatively impact the value of the intangible assets. Management estimated the duration of the cash flows based on historical client retention experience and other factors specific to FAP’s clients. The discount rate was determined based on specific business risk, cost of capital and other factors. The excess of fair values of assets acquired over the purchase price resulted in a gain on bargain purchase of $2.8 million.
Note K — Subsequent Events
     On November 15, 2010 the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of TJG Holdings LLC, a privately-held advisory services firm based in Chicago, Illinois and doing business as The Johnsson Group (“TJG”). The acquisition of TJG expands the Company’s advisory services business, which is part of the New Services segment.
     The initial purchase price for the TJG assets was $2.0 million, subject to adjustment based on the actual net working capital delivered as part of the acquired assets. Additional variable consideration of up to $1.9 million may

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
     The Company conducts its operations through three reportable operating segments: Recovery Audit Services — Americas, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific and New Services. The Recovery Audit Services — Americas segment represents recovery audit services (other than healthcare recovery audit services) provided in the U.S., Canada and Latin America. The Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific segment represents recovery audit services (other than healthcare recovery audit services) provided in Europe, Asia and the Pacific region. The New Services segment represents services to businesses and organizations in the healthcare industry including recovery audit services, business analytics and advisory services. The Company includes the unallocated portion of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses not specifically attributable to the Recovery Audit Services and New Services segments in a segment referred to as Corporate Support. The Company revised its reportable segments during the fourth quarter of 2009 to reflect the current management and operational structure. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company reported its results under two operating segments — Domestic Accounts Payable Services and International Accounts Payable Services. The presentation of the prior year’s financial information in this Form 10-Q has been restated to conform to the current presentation.
     The Company’s revenues are based on specific contracts with its clients. Such contracts for recovery audit services generally specify: (a) time periods covered by the audit; (b) the nature and extent of services to be provided by the Company; (c) the client’s duties in assisting and cooperating with the Company; and (d) fees payable to the Company, generally expressed as a specified percentage of the amounts recovered by the client resulting from overpayment claims identified. Clients generally recover claims by either taking credits against outstanding payables or future purchases from the involved vendors, or receiving refund checks directly from those vendors. The manner in which a claim is recovered by a client is often dictated by industry practice. In addition, many clients establish client-specific procedural guidelines that the Company must satisfy prior to submitting claims for client approval. For some services provided by the Company, such as advisory services, client contracts provide for compensation to the Company in the form of a flat fee, a fee per hour, or a fee per other unit of service.
     The vast majority of the Company’s recovery audit clients are in the retail industry segment, which the Company believes has been significantly impacted by the recent global economic downturn. The decrease in consumer spending associated with the economic downturn has resulted in many of the Company’s clients reducing their purchases from vendors, which makes it more difficult for those clients to offset recovery claims that the Company discovers against current vendor invoices. In addition, many client vendors are experiencing their own financial issues, and the liquidity of these vendors can also negatively impact the claims recovery process. Because the vast majority of the Company’s current business is based on such recoveries, these factors may negatively impact the Company’s revenues in future periods. Client bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings could also adversely impact the Company’s future revenues.
     Despite the impact of the recent economic downturn on consumer spending and retailers’ purchases from their vendors, the effect on the Company’s financial results has generally been delayed, as the Company did not begin to experience any material negative effects from the downturn until the first half of 2009. One factor insulating the Company somewhat from an economic downturn is that the Company’s clients are frequently more motivated to use the Company’s services to recover prior overpayments to make up for relatively weaker financial performance in their own business operations. Also, the client purchase data on which the Company performs its recovery audit services is historical data, the age of which varies from client to client; however, such data typically reflects transactions between the Company’s clients and their vendors that generally took place 3 to 15 months prior to the data being provided to the Company for audit. The fact that the Company’s audits typically lag current client spending by up to 15 months has also delayed somewhat the corresponding adverse impact of the recent economic downturn on the Company’s revenues.
     Given that the data on which the Company performs its recovery audit services is typically 3 to 15 months removed from the actual dates of transactions between the Company’s clients and their vendors, the Company expects that it will not begin to recognize increased revenues from recovery auditing in the retail industry as a result of improving economic conditions until well after the positive effects of such improved conditions have been realized by its clients. While the net impact of the recent economic downturn on the Company’s recovery audit revenues is difficult to precisely determine or predict, the Company believes that for the foreseeable future, its revenues will remain at a level that will not have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity, and management has taken steps to mitigate any adverse impact of the economic downturn on the Company’s revenues and overall financial health. These steps include limiting salary increases for Company employees and devoting substantial efforts in the development of a lower “cost-to-serve” service model to enable the Company to more cost

effectively serve commercial clients in an effort to reduce the Company’s dependency on customers in the retail industry. Further, management is working diligently to expand the Company’s business beyond its core recovery audit services to retailers, such as the Company’s efforts to expand its business analytics and advisory services businesses. Recent reported financial results, particularly the nine months ended September 30, 2010, have been significantly impacted by the investments the Company is making in connection with these initiatives.
     Another example of an area in which the Company continues to devote considerable effort to expand its business beyond its core accounts payable retail recovery auditing is the Company’s work in the healthcare industry. The Company’s results in 2006 and 2007, and to a significantly lesser extent in 2008, were affected by its involvement in the demonstration recovery audit contractor (“RAC”) program of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”), the federal agency that administers the Medicare program. The demonstration RAC program was designed by CMS to recover Medicare overpayments and identify Medicare underpayments through the use of recovery auditing. CMS awarded the Company a contract to audit Medicare spending in the State of California in 2005 as part of the RAC demonstration program. The Company’s RAC demonstration program contract expired in March 2008.
     In late 2006, legislation was enacted that mandated that recovery auditing of Medicare be extended beyond the March 2008 end of the RAC demonstration program and that CMS enter into additional contracts with recovery audit contractors to expand recovery auditing of Medicare spending to all 50 states by January 1, 2010. On February 9, 2009, the Company announced that it had entered into subcontracts with three of the four national RAC program contract awardees. CMS is responsible for implementation of the overall national RAC program, and the Company’s future revenues from its RAC program subcontracts are heavily dependent on CMS’s implementation schedule and priorities, both of which are beyond the Company’s control. Revenues from the RAC program subcontracts began to ramp up in the third quarter of 2010 and while the magnitude and timing of additional RAC program revenues are difficult to predict, management expects revenues from Medicare auditing to become more meaningful in the fourth quarter of 2010 and to steadily increase through the first half of 2011. In preparation for its work as a RAC subcontractor, the Company has incurred costs primarily relating to staffing and upgrading its technology systems. The Company incurred operating losses of approximately $4.0 million during both the year ended December 31, 2009 and nine months ended September 30, 2010 related to this effort. The Company is also pursuing potential opportunities resulting from more recent legislation which requires Medicaid RAC programs to be implemented in all 50 states by April 2011. Management expects that most states will undertake a competitive bidding process for their Medicaid RAC programs and no assurance can be given that the Company will participate in any future auditing of Medicaid claims.

    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,  
    2010     2009     2010     2009

Total
  $ 46.9     $ 45.3     $ 133.7     $ 130.0  
 
                       
     Total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 increased by $1.6 million, or 3.5% from the amount recognized in the quarter ended September 30, 2009. On a constant dollar basis, adjusted for changes in foreign currency exchange (“FX”) rates, total revenues increased by 4.3% during the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the third quarter of 2009. Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $3.7 million, or 2.8%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. On a constant dollar basis, adjusted for changes in FX rates, revenues for the first nine months of 2010 increased 1.4% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
     Recovery Audit Services — Americas revenues decreased by $2.0 million, or 6.3%, in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, revenues decreased by $7.4 million, or 8.1%, compared to the prior year period. On a constant dollar basis, adjusted for changes in FX rates, Recovery Audit Services — Americas revenues decreased by 7.7% during the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the third quarter of 2009 and decreased by 10.6% during the first nine months of 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. These decreases in Recovery Audit Services — Americas revenues are due to several factors, including fewer clients served, the impact of the Company’s clients developing and strengthening their own internal audit capabilities as a substitute for the Company’s services, the current economic environment and competitive rate pressures. The Company is executing several strategic initiatives such as reintroducing a sales and business development capability and making investments in software and the Company’s information technology infrastructure to enhance the Company’s audit strategies and effectiveness.
     Revenues in the Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific segment for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $2.6 million, or 21.2%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. For the nine

months ended September 30, 2010, revenues increased by $8.3 million, or 24.5%, compared to the comparable period in the prior year. On a constant dollar basis, adjusted for changes in FX rates, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific revenues increased by 27.2% during the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the third quarter of 2009 and increased by 25.7% during the first nine months of 2010 compared to the corresponding prior year nine-month period. These increases are attributable to revenues from the July 2009 acquisition of First Audit Partners LLP (“FAP”), and to incremental revenues from existing and new clients.
     New Services revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $1.0 million, or 80.9%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, revenues increased by $2.8 million, or 71.4%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. New Services revenues for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30 in each of 2010 and 2009 primarily consist of advisory services revenues. The 2010 nine-month period also includes revenues from business analytics services and the 2010 third quarter includes revenues from the CMS RAC subcontracts. While the magnitude and timing of additional RAC program revenues are difficult to predict, management expects revenues from Medicare auditing to become more meaningful in the fourth quarter of 2010 and to steadily increase through the first half of 2011.
     Cost of Revenues (“COR”). COR consists principally of commissions and other forms of variable compensation paid or payable to the Company’s auditors based primarily upon the level of overpayment recoveries and/or profit margins derived therefrom, fixed auditor salaries, compensation paid to various types of hourly support staff, and salaried operational and client service managers for the Company’s recovery audit, business analytics and advisory services businesses. Also included in COR are other direct and indirect costs incurred by these personnel, including office rent, travel and entertainment, telephone, utilities, maintenance and supplies, clerical assistance, and depreciation. A significant portion of the components comprising COR is variable and will increase or decrease with increases and decreases in revenues.
     COR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was as follows (in millions):
                                 
    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,  
    2010     2009     2010     2009  
Recovery Audit Services — Americas
  $ 17.6     $ 17.0     $ 51.3     $ 50.9  
Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific
    11.2       9.7       32.7       27.0  
New Services
    3.2       2.3       9.2       5.8  
 
                       
Total
  $ 32.0     $ 29.0     $ 93.2     $ 83.7  
 
                       
     COR as a percentage of revenues for Recovery Audit Services — Americas was 59.0% and 53.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. This equates to gross margin percentages of 41.0% and 46.4%, respectively, for the Recovery Audit Services — Americas segment for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, COR as a percentage of revenues for Recovery Audit Services — Americas was 60.6% and 55.3%, respectively. This equates to gross margin percentages of 39.4% and 44.7%, respectively, for the Recovery Audit Services — Americas segment for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
     The increases in Recovery Audit Services — Americas COR as a percentage of revenues for the third quarter of 2010 and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the corresponding prior year periods are partially attributable to the revenue declines over those periods without corresponding reductions in COR. Additionally, the Company is making investments in its various growth and other strategic initiatives, significant portions of which are included in Recovery Audit Services — Americas COR.
     COR as a percentage of revenues for Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific was 75.4% and 78.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. This equates to gross margin percentages of 24.6% and 21.2%, respectively, for the Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific segment for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, COR as a percentage of revenues for Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific was 76.8% and 79.0%, respectively. This equates to gross margin percentages of 23.2% and 21.0%, respectively, for the Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific segment for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
     The improvements in gross margin percentages for Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily resulted from lower commissions paid to third parties in Europe as a percentage of revenues.

     The higher COR as a percentage of revenues for Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific (75.4% for the third quarter of 2010 and 76.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010) compared to Recovery Audit Services — Americas (59.0% for the third quarter of 2010 and 60.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010) is primarily due to differences in service delivery models, scale and geographic fragmentation. The Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific segment generally serves fewer clients in each geographic market and generates lower revenues per client than those served by the Company’s Recovery Audit Services — Americas segment.
     New Services COR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 relates primarily to costs of advisory services and costs associated with the Company’s performance of the CMS RAC program subcontracts. The amount by which New Services COR exceeds New Services revenues represents a portion of the Company’s investment in the New Services segment. Management expects such investment (COR in excess of revenues) to continue throughout 2010 and into the first half of 2011.
     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”). SG&A expenses of the Recovery Audit and New Services segments include the expenses of sales and marketing activities, information technology services and allocated corporate data center costs, human resources, legal, accounting, administration, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, gains and losses on asset disposals, depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangibles related to the Recovery Audit and New Services segments.
     Recovery Audit and New Services SG&A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows (in millions):
                                 
    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,  
    2010     2009     2010     2009

Total
  $ 6.9     $ 6.0     $ 23.8     $ 17.0  
 
                       
     Recovery Audit Services — Americas SG&A increased 7.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and increased 24.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from the comparable periods in 2009. These increases in Recovery Audit Services — Americas SG&A were primarily a result of costs incurred in connection with the Company’s efforts to build its sales and business development capabilities, combined with higher depreciation expense resulting from investments to upgrade the Company’s information technology infrastructure.
     Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A includes FX transaction gains and losses, including the gains and losses related to intercompany balances. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A recognized $1.2 million of FX transaction gains related to intercompany balances and during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 recognized $0.4 million of FX transaction losses related to intercompany balances. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A recognized $0.7 million and $1.4 million of FX transaction gains, respectively, related to intercompany balances.
     Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A, excluding the FX transaction gains and losses related to intercompany balances, increased by $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A excluding the FX transaction losses related to intercompany balances, decreased by $0.1 million compared to the same period in 2009. Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific SG&A in 2010 remained comparable to 2009 as the result of relatively lower severance costs and incentive compensation accruals and relatively higher amortization and depreciation costs resulting from the acquisition of FAP which was completed in July 2009.
     New Services SG&A for the third quarter of 2010 increased by $1.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, New Services SG&A increased $1.9 million compared to the same period in 2009. These increases were primarily attributable to the additional operating costs of Etesius Limited which was acquired in February 2010 (See Note J - Business Acquisition), increased use of professional services, depreciation of fixed assets acquired for the Company’s preparation for performance of the CMS RAC program subcontracts and additional sales and business development personnel.

     Corporate Support
     Corporate Support SG&A represents the unallocated portion of SG&A expenses which are not specifically attributable to Recovery Audit Services — Americas, Recovery Audit Services — Europe/Asia-Pacific or New Services and includes the expenses of information technology services, the corporate data center, human resources, legal, accounting, treasury, administration and stock-based compensation charges.
     Corporate Support SG&A totaled the following for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 (in millions):

  $ 4.0     $ 5.0     $ 13.0     $ 14.5  
     Corporate Support SG&A for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 includes stock-based compensation charges of $1.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The first nine months of 2010 includes $3.0 million of stock-based compensation charges as compared to $2.5 million of stock-based compensation charges included in the same period in 2009.
     Corporate Support SG&A, excluding stock-based compensation charges, decreased 17.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 and decreased 16.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, when compared to the same periods in 2009. These decreases are attributable to a $0.7 million accrual for the settlement of the Fleming Post Confirmation Trust, professional fees related to litigation and severance charges incurred in 2009 for which there are no comparable costs in 2010 and decreased incentive compensation accruals in 2010.
     Other Items
     Interest Expense. Net interest expense was $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Net interest expense was $2.4 million and $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2010 consisted primarily of interest related to the SunTrust Bank term loan under the Company’s credit facility, which had an outstanding balance of $12.8 million as of September 30, 2010. Interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included a charge of $1.4 million for unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the Company’s prior term loan from Ableco LLC which costs were written off in January 2010 in conjunction with the Company entering into a new credit facility with SunTrust Bank (see “New Credit Facility” below).
     Income Tax Expense. The Company’s income tax expense amounts as reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) do not reflect amounts that would normally be expected because of the Company’s valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Reported income tax expense for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 primarily results from taxes on income of foreign subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     As of September 30, 2010, the Company had $20.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and no borrowings under the revolver portion of its credit facility. The revolver had approximately $7.3 million of calculated availability for borrowings.
     While management believes that the recent global economic downturn has contributed to a decrease in the revenues that the Company would have otherwise earned in recent periods, this decrease has not resulted in the need for the Company to draw down on its revolving credit facility to fund its operations and has not materially adversely impacted the Company’s overall liquidity position. However, if revenues were to significantly decline, it could have an adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity. The Company was in compliance with the covenants in its new credit facility as of September 30, 2010 (see “New Credit Facility” below).
     Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.2 million and $7.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The $7.4 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 was due to an $11.1 million reduction in operating profit partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in the change in operating assets and liabilities from the beginning to the end of the relevant periods. Portions of the reduced operating profit were attributable to increases in noncash charges such as depreciation and amortization expense (a $2.3 million increase) and stock-based compensation (a $0.5 million increase) which do not impact cash generated by operating activities. The $0.6 million increase in the change in operating assets and liabilities in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 was the result of the timing of certain foreign tax payments and lower payments for other accrued liabilities made during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009. These improvements in cash flow in 2010 were partially offset by smaller reductions in accounts receivable balances in 2010 compared to 2009. Such asset and liability changes are itemized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
     Investing Activities and Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted to $6.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Net cash used for property and equipment capital expenditures was $5.2 million and $2.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Management currently expects this increased level of capital expenditures to continue over the next several quarters as the Company continues to enhance its healthcare audit systems supporting its performance in the CMS RAC program and other healthcare audits and its execution of the Company’s strategic initiatives. Capital expenditures are discretionary and changes in operating plans and results could cause management to alter its capital expenditure plans.
     In January 2010, the Company made the first of two deferred payments required as part of the acquisition of First Audit Partners LLP in the amount of £0.5 million ($0.8 million). The second payment of £0.8 million ($1.3 million) was paid in July 2010.
     As discussed more fully in Note J Business Acquisitions in “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, in February 2010, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Etesius Limited for a purchase price valued at $3.1 million. The purchase price included an initial cash payment of $2.8 million which was paid in February 2010.
     Financing Activities and Interest Expense. Net cash used in financing activities was $2.4 million and $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As described in more detail below, in January 2010, the Company entered into a new $15.0 million term loan, the proceeds of which were used to repay the remaining $14.2 million of outstanding principal from the Ableco LLC term loan and to pay $0.5 million in loan costs incurred in connection with the new SunTrust credit facility. During the first nine months of 2010, the Company made mandatory payments totaling $2.3 million on its new term loan and reduced its capital lease obligations by $0.3 million.
     New Credit Facility
     On January 19, 2010, the Company entered into a four-year revolving credit and term loan agreement with SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”). The SunTrust credit facility consists of a $15.0 million committed revolving credit facility and a $15.0 million term loan. The SunTrust credit facility is guaranteed by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. Amounts eligible for borrowing under the

22


Table of Contents

SunTrust revolver are based on eligible accounts receivable and other factors. Availability under the SunTrust revolver at September 30, 2010 was $7.3 million.
     The principal portion of the SunTrust term loan must be repaid in quarterly installments of $0.8 million each which commenced in March 2010. The loan agreement requires mandatory prepayments with the net cash proceeds from certain asset sales, equity offerings and insurance proceeds received by the Company. The loan agreement also requires an additional annual prepayment if excess cash flow as defined in the agreement exceeds a certain threshold. The first of any such excess cash flow payments would be payable in April 2011. The remaining balance of the SunTrust term loan is due in January 2014. As of September 30, 2010, there were no outstanding borrowings under the SunTrust revolver. Interest on both the revolver and term loan are payable monthly and accrue at an index rate using the one-month LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin as determined by the loan agreement. The applicable interest rate margin varies from 2.25% per annum to 3.5% per annum, dependent on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and is determined in accordance with a pricing grid under the SunTrust loan agreement. The Company also must pay a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum, payable monthly, on the unused portion of the $15.0 million SunTrust revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2010, the applicable interest rate under the SunTrust credit facility was 2.76%. The Company incurred approximately $0.7 million of costs in connection with entering into the SunTrust credit facility. Such amount has been capitalized and is being amortized over the life of the facility.
     The SunTrust credit facility includes customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants binding on the Company, including delivery of financial statements and other reports, maintenance of existence, and transactions with affiliates. The negative covenants limit the ability of the Company, among other things, to incur debt, incur liens, make investments, sell assets, repurchase shares of its capital stock or declare or pay dividends on its capital stock. The financial covenants included in the SunTrust credit facility, among other things, limit the amount of capital expenditures the Company can make, set forth maximum leverage and net funded debt ratios for the Company and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and also require the Company to maintain minimum consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. In addition, the SunTrust credit facility includes customary events of default.
     The Company used substantially all the funds from the SunTrust term loan to repay in full the $14.2 million outstanding under the Ableco LLC term loan.
     In September 2010 the Company entered into an amendment of its SunTrust credit facility, lowering the required minimum adjusted EBITDA and fixed charge coverage ratio through December 31, 2010. In October 2010 the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with SunTrust related to the $3.0 million principal portion of the loan due in January 2014 and the $0.8 million portion due December 2013. The interest rate swap agreement effectively changed the index rate applicable to those principal components from a variable rate of interest tied to LIBOR to a fixed index rate of 1.23%.
     Management believes that the Company will have sufficient borrowing capacity and cash generated from operations to fund its capital and operational needs for at least the next twelve months.
     Stock Repurchase Program
     In February 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock repurchase program. Under the terms of the program, as extended by the Board of Directors, the Company may repurchase up to $10 million of its common stock from time to time through March 31, 2011. The SunTrust credit facility permits the Company to repurchase up to $1.0 million of its common stock annually. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under this program.
     2006 Management Incentive Plan
     At the annual meeting of shareholders held on August 11, 2006, the shareholders of the Company approved a proposal granting authorization to issue up to 2.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s 2006 Management Incentive Plan (“2006 MIP”). On September 29, 2006, an aggregate of 682,301 Performance Units were awarded under the 2006 MIP to the seven executive officers of the Company. At Performance Unit settlement dates (which vary by participant), participants are paid in common stock and in cash. Participants will receive a number of shares of Company common stock equal to 60% of the number of Performance Units being paid out, plus a cash payment equal to 40% of the fair market value of that number of shares of common stock equal to the number of Performance Units being paid out. The awards contain certain anti-dilution and change

of control provisions. Also, the number of Performance Units awarded were automatically adjusted on a pro-rata basis upon the conversion into common stock of the Company’s senior convertible notes and Series A convertible preferred stock. During 2006 and 2007, an additional 1,558,557 Performance Units were granted as a result of this automatic adjustment provision.
     All Performance Units must be settled before April 30, 2016. On April 30, 2010, an aggregate of 134,493 Performance Units were settled by two executive officers and one former executive officer. These settlements resulted in the issuance of 80,694 shares of common stock and cash payments totaling $0.4 million. On May 3, 2010, an aggregate of 44,831 Performance Units were settled by a former executive officer. This settlement resulted in the issuance of 26,898 shares of common stock and a cash payment of $0.1 million. As of September 30, 2010, total Performance Unit awards outstanding were 89,662 with an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.5 million.
     Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
     As of September 30, 2010, the Company did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of the SEC’s Regulation S-K.
     Critical Accounting Policies
     The Company’s significant accounting policies have been fully described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Certain of these accounting policies are considered “critical” to the portrayal of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, as they require the application of significant judgment by management. As a result, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These “critical” accounting policies are identified and discussed in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those considered “critical”. The development, selection and evaluation of accounting estimates, including those deemed “critical,” and the associated disclosures in this Form 10-Q have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     Foreign Currency Market Risk. Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar although we transact business in various foreign locations and currencies. As a result, our financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we provide services. Our operating results are exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the other countries in which we operate. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against other currencies, the value of foreign functional currency revenues decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens, the value of the foreign functional currency revenues increases. Overall, we are a net receiver of currencies other than the U.S. dollar and, as such, benefit from a weaker dollar. We are therefore adversely affected by a stronger dollar relative to major currencies worldwide. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized $6.5 million and $14.4 million, respectively, of operating income from operations located outside the U.S., virtually all of which was originally accounted for in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Upon translation into U.S. dollars, such operating income would increase or decrease, assuming a hypothetical 10% change in weighted-average foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, by approximately $0.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
     Interest Rate Risk. Our interest income and expense are sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. In this regard, changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash equivalents as well as interest paid on our debt. The Company had $7.3 million of calculated borrowing availability under its revolving credit facility and $12.8 million outstanding under a term loan as of September 30, 2010. Interest on both the revolver and all but $3.8 million of the term loan are payable monthly and accrued at an index rate using the one-month LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin as determined by the loan agreement. The applicable interest rate margin varies from 2.25% per annum to 3.5% per annum. There are no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. However, assuming full utilization of the revolving credit facility, a hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates applicable to the revolver would result in an approximate $0.1 million change in annual pre-tax income. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates applicable to the term loan would result in an approximate $0.1 million change in annual pre-tax income.

     Item 4. Controls and Procedures
     The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2010.
     There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
