Description of Business and Basis of Presentation:
Basis of Presentation
References in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q
to “we”, “our”, “Mastech Digital”, “Mastech” or “the Company” refer collectively to Mastech Digital, Inc. and its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, which are included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Financial Statements”).
Description of Business
We are a provider of Digital Transformation IT Services to mostly large and
medium-sized
organizations.
Our portfolio of offerings includes data management and analytics services; digital learning services; and IT staffing services.
Reflective of our 2017 acquisition of the services division of Canada-based InfoTrellis, Inc., we have added specialized capabilities in delivering data and analytics services to our customers globally. This business offers project-based consulting services in the areas of data management, data engineering and data science, with such services delivered using
on-site
and offshore resources. In October 2020, we acquired AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. (“AmberLeaf”), a Chicago-based customer experience consulting firm. This acquisition expanded our capabilities in customer experience strategy and managed services offering for a variety of Cloud-based enterprise applications across sales, marketing and customer services organizations.
Our IT staffing business combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of staffing services in digital and mainstream technologies. Our digital technologies include data management, analytics, cloud, mobility, social and artificial intelligence. We work with businesses and institutions with significant IT spending and recurring staffing service needs. We also support smaller organizations with their “project focused” temporary IT staffing requirements.
The
COVID-19
pandemic had a material impact on activity levels in both of our business segments in 2020. During the first six months of 2021, we are encouraged by the global
roll-out
of vaccination programs and some signs of economic expansion and improving economic conditions as the impact of the pandemic subsides. There is, however, still uncertainty regarding the virus and the pace, nature and extent of the recovery of global markets and particular industries from the pandemic.
Accounting Principles
The accompanying Financial Statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021. Additionally, our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other period.
Principles of Consolidation
The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Critical Accounting Policies
Please refer to Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations–Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”
 
in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a more detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates. There were no material changes to these critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Segment Reporting
The Company has two reportable segments, in accordance with Accounting Standards Committee (“ASC”) Topic 280 “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”: Data and Analytics Services and IT Staffing Services.
2.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company recognizes revenue on
time-and-material
contracts over time as services are performed and expenses are incurred.
Time-and-material
contracts typically bill at an agreed-upon hourly rate, plus
out-of-pocket
expense reimbursement.
Out-of-pocket
expense reimbursement amounts vary by assignment, but on average represent less than 2% of total revenues. Revenue is earned on a per transaction or labor hour basis, as that amount directly corresponds to the value of the Company’s performance. Revenue recognition is negatively impacted by holidays and consultant vacation and sick days.
The Company recognizes revenue on fixed price contracts over time as services are rendered and uses a cost-based input method to measure progress. Determining a measure of progress requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenue recognized. Under the cost-based input method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. The Company has determined that the cost-based input method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods or services to the customer. Estimated losses are recognized immediately in the period in which current estimates indicate a loss. We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which may be refundable.
The Company’s
time-and-material
and fixed price revenue streams are recognized over time as the customer receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the work is performed.
In certain situations related to client direct hire assignments, where the Company’s fee is contingent upon the hired resources continued employment with the client, revenue is not fully recognized until such employment conditions are satisfied.
We do not sell, lease or otherwise market computer software or hardware, and essentially 100% of our revenue is derived from the sale of data and analytics, IT staffing and digital transformation services. We expense sales commissions in the same period in which revenues are realized. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses.
Each contract the Company enters into is assessed to determine the promised services to be performed and includes identification of the performance obligations required by the contract. In substantially all of our contracts, we have identified a single performance obligation for each contract either because the promised services are distinct or the promised services are highly interrelated and interdependent and therefore represent a combined single performance obligation.
Our Data and Analytics Services segment provides specialized capabilities in delivering data management and analytics services to customers globally. This business offers project-based consulting services in the areas of Master Data Management, Enterprise Data Integration, Data Engineering and Analytics, which can be delivered using onsite and offshore resources.
Our IT Staffing Services segment combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of services in digital and mainstream technologies. Our digital technology stack includes data management and analytics, cloud, mobility, social and automation. Our mainstream technologies include business intelligence / data warehousing; web services; enterprise resource planning & customer resource management; and
e-Business
solutions. We work with businesses and institutions with significant IT spend and recurring staffing needs. We also support smaller organizations with their “project focused” temporary IT staffing requirements.

Business Combinations
On October 1, 2020, Mastech Digital, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary Mastech Digital Data, Inc., acquired all of the outstanding shares of AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. (“AmberLeaf”). Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement executed in connection with the AmberLeaf acquisition (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Company paid at the closing of the acquisition approximately $9.7 million in cash. The Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to pay to the former shareholders of AmberLeaf up to $4.5 million in deferred cash payments, which payments are contingent upon the AmberLeaf business achieving specific revenue growth and EBITDA margin targets. The amount of these deferred cash payments, if any, is based upon the revenue growth and EBITDA margins of the AmberLeaf business for the
12-month
period beginning on January 1, 2021 and for the
12-month
period beginning January 1, 2022, as described more fully in the Purchase Agreement.
To fund the acquisition, on October 1, 2020 the Company entered into a Third Amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement, as amended and dated April 20, 2018. The Third Amendment amends the Credit Agreement by, among other things, (1) increasing the aggregate commitment amount of the revolving credit facility to $30 million (an increase of $7.5 million); (2) providing for the Term Loan facility in the aggregate amount of $17.5 million (an increase of $10 million); (3) providing for an increase in the total commitment amount to the facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15 million, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions; and (4) amending the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement related to the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) by increasing the minimum permitted Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for each of the fiscal quarters ending on or after September 30, 2020.

The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at their fair value as of the closing date.
The following table summarizes the fair value of consideration for the acquired business on the October 1, 2020 closing date:

(1)
Based on a valuation conducted by an independent third party, the fair value of contingent consideration at the closing date was determined to be $2,882,000. During the three month period ended June 30, 2021, the Company revalued the contingent consideration liability related to the AmberLeaf acquisition after determining that relevant conditions for payment of such liabilities were unlikely to be fully satisfied. The revaluation resulted in a $2.0 million reduction to the contingent consideration liability.
The cash purchase price at closing was paid with funds obtained from the following sources:

The allocation of the purchase price was based on estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of October 1, 2020, as set forth below. The excess purchase price over the fair values of the net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which includes value associated with the assembled workforce. Goodwill is expected to be largely deductible for tax purposes. The valuation of net assets acquired is as follows:

The fair value of identifiable intangible assets has been estimated using the income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis. Specifically, the Company used the income approach through an excess earnings analysis to determine the fair value of client relationships. The value applied to the covenant
not-to-compete
was based on an income approach using a “with or without” analysis of this covenant in place. The trade name and technology were valued using the income approach—relief from royalty method. All identifiable intangibles are considered level 3 inputs under the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance.
The Company incurred $650,000 of transaction expenses related to the acquisition in 2020 inclusive of the
write-off
of $185,000 of deferred finance costs. No transaction costs were incurred for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
Included in the Condensed Statement of Operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 are revenues of $1.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and net income of approximately $0.1 million and breakeven (excluding the impact of the contingent consideration revaluation), respectively, applicable to the AmberLeaf operations acquired on October 1, 2020.

Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of our business, the Company is involved in a number of lawsuits and administrative proceedings.

Employee Benefit Plan
The Company provides an Employee Retirement Savings Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), that covers substantially all U.S. based salaried and
W-2
hourly employees. Employees may contribute a percentage of eligible compensation to the Retirement Plan, subject to certain limits under the Code. The Company did not provide for any matching contributions for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Stock-Based Compensation
In 2008, the Company adopted a Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which, as amended, provides that up to 4,900,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be allocated for issuance to directors, officers and key personnel. Grants under the Plan can be made in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares or stock awards. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the Company granted no shares under the Plan.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company granted restricted share units of 11,955 and 270,000 stock option grants at an average strike price of $17.65. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted restricted share units of 11,475 and 800,000 stock option grants at an average strike price of $15.49. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 343,000 shares and 613,000 shares, respectively, available for grants under the Plan.
Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $757,000 and $612,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1.4 million and $1.1 million. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued 30,239 shares, respectively, related to the vesting of restricted shares and the exercising of stock options. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 317,774 shares, respectively, related to the vesting of restricted shares and the exercising of stock options.
In October 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Mastech Digital, Inc. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Stock Purchase Plan”). The Stock Purchase Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code and was required to be approved by the Company’s shareholders to be qualified. On May 15, 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the Stock Purchase Plan. Under the Stock Purchase Plan, 600,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment upon certain changes in the Company’s capitalization) are available for purchase by eligible employees who become participants in the Stock Purchase Plan. The purchase price per share is 85% of the lesser of (i) the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the first day of the offering period, or (ii) the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the last day of the offering period.
The Company’s eligible full-time employees are able to contribute up to 15% of their base compensation into the employee stock purchase plan, subject to an annual limit of $25,000 per person. Employees are able to purchase Company common stock at a 15% discount to the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the initial or final trading dates of each
six-month
offering period. Offering periods begin on January 1 and July 1 of each year. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of employee stock purchase plan share-based payments. The fair value of the
six-month
“look-back” option in the Company’s employee stock purchase plans is estimated by adding the fair value of 15% of one share of
stock to 85% of the fair value of an option on one share of stock.
 
The Company utilized U.S. Treasury yields as of the grant date for its risk-free interest rate assumption, matching the Treasury yield terms to the
six-month
offering period. The Company utilized historical company data to develop its dividend yield and expected volatility assumptions.

Credit Facility
On July 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, as administrative agent, swing loan lender and issuing lender, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole book-runner, and certain financial institution parties thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for a total aggregate commitment of $47.5 million, consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30 million (subject to increase by up to an additional $15 million upon satisfaction of certain conditions) and; (ii) a $17.5 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan), as more fully described in Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form
8-Ks
filed with the SEC on July 19, 2017 and April 25, 2018, and Exhibit 10.2 to the Form
8-K/A
filed with the SEC on October 7, 2020.
The Revolver expires in October 2023 and includes swing loan and letter of credit
sub-limits
in the aggregate amount not to exceed $6.0 million for swing loans and $5.0 million for letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolver may be denominated in U.S. dollars or Canadian dollars. The maximum borrowings in U.S. dollars may not exceed the sum of 85% of eligible U.S. accounts receivable and 60% of eligible U.S. unbilled receivables, less a reserve amount established by the administrative agent. The maximum borrowings in Canadian dollars may not exceed the lesser of (i) $10.0 million; and (ii) the sum of 85% of eligible Canadian receivables, plus 60% of eligible Canadian unbilled receivables, less a reserve amount established by the administrative agent.
Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan are required to be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments through and including the maturity date of October 1, 2023. The principal amount of each quarterly installment payable on the Term Loan equals $1.1 million through and including the maturity date, with the maturity date payment equal to the outstanding amount of the loan on that date.
Borrowings under the revolver and the term loan, at the Company’s election, bear interest at either (a) the higher of PNC’s prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, plus an applicable margin determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio or (b) an adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), with a floor of 0.50%, plus an applicable margin determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio. The applicable margin on the base rate is between 0.50% and 1.25% on revolver borrowings and between 1.75% and 2.50% on term loans. The applicable margin on the adjusted LIBOR is between 1.50% and 2.25% on revolver borrowings and between 2.75% and 3.50% on term loans. A 20 to
30-basis
point per annum commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolver facility is charged and due monthly in arrears. The applicable commitment fee is determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio.
The Company pledged substantially all of its assets in support of the Credit Agreement. The credit agreement contains standard financial covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants related to the Company’s senior leverage ratio and fixed charge ratio (as defined under the credit agreement) and limitations on liens, indebtedness, guarantees, contingent liabilities, loans and investments, distributions, leases, asset sales, stock repurchases and mergers and acquisitions. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all provisions under the facility.
In connection with securing the commitments under the Credit Agreement and the April 20, 2018 and October 1, 2020 amendments to the Credit Agreement, the Company paid a commitment fee and incurred deferred financing costs totaling $752,000, which were capitalized and are being amortized as interest expense over the life of the facility. Deferred financing costs of $184,000 and $225,000 (net of amortization) as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are presented as reductions in long-term debt in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolver and unused borrowing capacity available was approximately $26.1 million and $22.0 million, respectively. The Company’s outstanding borrowings under the term loan were $15.3 million and $17.5 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

We evaluate deferred income taxes quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. GAAP accounting guidance requires us to assess whether valuation allowances should be established against deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, both positive and negative using a “more likely than not” standard. Our assessment considers, among other things, the nature of cumulative losses; forecast of future profitability; the duration of statutory carry-forward periods and tax planning alternatives. At June 30, 2021, our valuation allowance was comprised of balances within locations of Singapore and the United Kingdom. The valuation allowance balances at these locations totaled $248,000 and $179,000 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and reflect net operating losses which may not be realizable in the future.
The Company’s 2018 tax return is currently being audited by the IRS. Additionally, we have been notified by Revenue Canada that they will be conducting an audit of our Canadian subsidiary for the years 2018 and 2019 in the coming months.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Interest Rate Risk Management
Concurrent with the Company’s July 13, 2017 borrowings under its new credit facility, the Company entered into a 44–month interest-rate swap to convert the debt’s variable interest rate to a fixed rate of interest. Under the swap contracts, which matured on April 1, 2021, the Company paid interest at a fixed rate of 1.99% and received interest at a variable rate equal to the daily U.S. LIBOR on an initial notional amount of $15.0 million. Notional amounts were $0 and $8.1 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. These swap contracts have been designated as cash flow hedging instruments and qualified as effective hedges at inception under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. These contracts are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of the changes in fair value on these instruments is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into the Consolidated Statements of Operations as interest expense in the same period in which the underlying hedge transaction affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of interest-rate swap contracts deemed ineffective are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as interest expense. The fair value of the interest-rate swap contracts at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $0 and a liability of $35,000, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as other current liabilities.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), related to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 establishes the authoritative definition of fair value; sets out a framework for measuring fair value; and expands the required disclosures about fair value measurements. The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based on observable and unobservable inputs using the following three-tier hierarchy:
 
   
Level 1—Inputs are observable quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
 
   
Level 2—Inputs are observable, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
 
   
Level 3—Inputs are unobservable that are supported by little or no market activity.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company carried the following financial assets (liabilities) at fair value measured on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The fair value of interest-rate swap contracts are based on quoted prices for similar instruments from a commercial bank, and therefore, the fair value measurement is considered to be within Level 2.
The fair value of the contingent consideration liability was estimated by utilizing a probability weighted simulation model to determine the fair value of contingent consideration, and therefore, the fair value measurement is considered to be within Level 3.
In 2020, the Company incurred a $2.9 million contingent consideration liability related to the AmberLeaf acquisition. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company revalued the contingent consideration liability related to the AmberLeaf acquisition after determining that relevant conditions for payment of such liabilities were unlikely to be fully satisfied. The revaluation resulted in a $2.0 million reduction to the contingent consideration liability.
The following table provides information regarding changes in the Company’s contingent consideration liability for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Earnings Per Share
The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the Company’s net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised. The dilutive effect of stock options was calculated using the treasury stock method.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were 270,000 anti-dilutive stock options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were 0 anti-dilutive stock options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU
2019-12,
“Income Taxes (Topic 740)”. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and by clarifying and amending other areas of Topic 740. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU
2020-04,
“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”. The amendments in this ASU provide optional guidance to ease the burden in accounting for contract modifications associated with the cessation of interbank offered rates, particularly LIBOR, as a result of reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under consideration by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed standards, management has not yet determined the effect, if any that the implementation of such proposed standards would have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements
.

Overview:
We are a provider of Digital Transformation IT Services to mostly large and
medium-sized
organizations.
Our portfolio of offerings includes data management and analytics services; other digital transformation services such as digital learning services; and IT staffing services.
We operate in two reporting segments – Data and Analytics Services and IT Staffing Services. Our data and analytics services are marketed on a global basis under the brand Mastech InfoTrellis and are delivered largely on a project basis with
on-site
and
off-shore
resources. These capabilities and expertise were acquired through our acquisition of InfoTrellis and enhanced and expanded subsequent to the acquisition. In October 2020, we acquired AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. (“AmberLeaf”), a Chicago-based customer experience consulting firm. This acquisition enhanced our capabilities in customer experience strategy and managed services offerings for a variety of Cloud-based enterprise applications across sales, marketing and customer services organizations. Our IT staffing business combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of staffing services in digital and mainstream technologies, as well as our other digital transformation services.
Both business segments provide their services across various industry verticals, including: financial services; government; healthcare; manufacturing; retail; technology; telecommunications; and transportation. In our Data and Analytics Services segment, we evaluate our revenues and gross profits largely by service line. In our IT Staffing Services segment, we evaluate our revenues and gross profits largely by sales channel responsibility. This analysis within both our reporting segments is multi-purposed and includes technologies employed, client relationships, and geographic locations.

Table of Contents
Data and Analytics:
We provide information regarding our new bookings in our Data and Analytics Services segment, which represents the estimated value of client engagements, including those acquired through acquisitions, as well as renewals, extensions and changes to existing contracts, because we believe doing so provides useful trend information regarding changes in the volume of our new business over time. New bookings can vary significantly quarter to quarter depending in part on the timing of the signing of a small number of large engagements. Among other factors, the types of services and solutions to be delivered, the duration of the engagement and the pace and level of client spending impact the timing of the conversion of new bookings to revenues. In addition, substantially all of our contracts are terminable by the client on short notice with little or no termination penalties. Information regarding our new bookings is not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of our revenues over time. New bookings involve estimates and judgments. There are no third-party standards or requirements governing the calculation of bookings. We do not update our new bookings for material subsequent terminations or reductions related to bookings originally provided in prior periods.
Economic Trends and Outlook:
Generally, our business outlook is highly correlated to general North American economic conditions, particularly with respect to our IT Staffing Services segment. During periods of increasing employment and economic expansion, demand for our services tends to increase. Conversely, during periods of contracting employment and / or a slowing global economy, demand for our services tends to decline. As the economy slowed in 2007 and recessionary conditions emerged in 2008 and 2009, we experienced less demand for our IT staffing services. With economic expansion in 2010 through 2019, activity levels improved. However, as the recovery strengthened, we experience increased tightness in the supply-side (skilled IT professionals) of our businesses. These supply-side challenges pressured resource costs and to some extent gross margins. As we entered 2020, we were encouraged by continued growth in the domestic job markets and expanding U.S. and global economies. However, with the
COVID-19
pandemic surfacing in the first quarter of 2020, we realized the economic growth would quickly turn into recessionary conditions, which had a material impact on activity levels in both of our business segments. We are encouraged by the global
roll-out
of vaccination programs and signs of economic expansion in 2021. While there is still uncertainty in the global markets relating to the pandemic and its impact on economic conditions, we are hopeful that economic conditions will improve throughout the year as the impact of the pandemic subsides in many key markets.
In addition to tracking general economic conditions in the markets that we service, a large portion of our revenues is generated from a limited number of clients (see Item 1A, the Risk Factor entitled “Our revenues are highly concentrated, and the loss of a significant client would adversely affect our business and revenues” in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020). Accordingly, our trends and outlook are additionally impacted by the prospects and well-being of these specific clients. This “account concentration” factor may result in our results of operations deviating from the prevailing economic trends from time to time.
Within our IT Staffing Services segment, a larger portion of our revenues has come from strategic relationships with systems integrators and other staffing organizations. Additionally, many large end users of IT staffing services are employing MSP’s to manage their contractor spending. Both of these dynamics may pressure our IT staffing gross margins in the future.
Recent growth in advanced technologies (social, cloud, analytics, mobility, automation) is providing opportunities within our IT Staffing Services segment. However, supply side challenges have proven to be acute with respect to many of these technologies.
Within our Data and Analytics Services segment many customers are satisfying their D&A needs using a holistic approach. This often results in the customer using one vendor partner rather than with multiple vendors. We have responded to this trend by establishing a service offering called “Center of Excellence” which bundles a customer’s total requirements under a multi-year contract. This concept allows us to better understand the customer’s longer-term strategy with respect to D&A and effectively address such needs.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020:
Revenues:
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $53.7 million compared to $47.6 million for the corresponding three month period in 2020. This 13% year-over-year revenue increase reflected a 9.6% increase in our IT staffing services segment and a 32% increase in our data and analytics services segment, of which approximately 4% was organic growth. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had one client that had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 14.8%) For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had the same one client with revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 15.1%). The Company’s top ten clients represented approximately 48% and 49% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Revenues from our Data and Analytics Services segment totaled $9.0 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to $6.8 million in the corresponding period last year. The increase in revenues reflected $1.9 million related to our AmberLeaf acquisition and $0.3 million in organic growth. Project delays have impacted organic growth opportunities; however, we are starting to see positive signs in this area. New bookings were strong for the second consecutive quarter with an aggregate value of approximately $15 million.
Revenues from our IT Staffing Services segment totaled $44.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $40.8 million during the corresponding 2020 period. This 10% increase reflected a higher level of billable consultants, partially offset by a lower average bill rate in the second quarter of 2021 when compared to the corresponding 2020 period. Billable consultant headcount at June 30, 2021 totaled
1,251-consultants
compared to
1,035-consultants
one-year
earlier. The increase in billable consultants of
216-consultants
over the last
12-month
period (a 21% increase) reflects strong activity levels, particularly in the first half of 2021. Our average bill rate decreased during the second quarter of 2021 to $74.65 per hour compared to $76.91 per hour in the corresponding 2020 quarter. The decline in average bill rate was due to lower rates on new assignments during the first half of 2021 and was reflective of the types of skill-sets that we deployed. Permanent placement / fee revenues were approximately $0.2 million during the 2021 quarter, which were
in-line
with the corresponding 2020 quarter.
Gross Margins:
Gross profits in the second quarter of 2021 totaled $14.3 million and exceeded the second quarter of 2020 gross profits by approximately $1.7 million. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 26.7% for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to 26.6% during the same period of 2020. This slight improvement in gross margins reflected higher margins in our IT Staffing Services segment.
Below is a tabular presentation of gross margin by reporting segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Gross margins from our Data and Analytics Services segment were 46.7% of revenues during the second quarter of 2021, which represented a decline of
550-basis
points from a year ago. The margin decline reflects a lower margin profile in our acquired AmberLeaf business. Our core D&A business continued to have gross margins in the 50% range in the second quarter of 2021.
Gross margins from our IT Staffing Services segment were 22.7% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 22.4% during the corresponding quarter of 2020. This
30-basis
point expansion was due to better gross margins on new assignments secured during the last several quarters.

S,G&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $9.0 million or 16.8% of total revenues, compared to $9.0 million or 19.0% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Excluding the revaluation of contingent consideration in the 2021 period and the amortization of acquired intangible assets in both periods, S,G,&A expense as a percentage of total revenues would have been 19.0% and 17.6%, respectively. The lower S,G&A expense as a percentage of total revenues in 2020 reflected austerity measures implemented due to the pandemic environment. Fluctuations within S,G,&A expense components during the second quarter of 2021, compared to the second quarter of 2020, included the following:
 
   
Sales expense increased by $0.4 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. Approximately $0.2 million reflected AmberLeaf sales expense and $0.2 million was due to austerity measures implemented in the 2020 period, which have been unwound in 2021.
 
   
Operations expense increased $0.6 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. Approximately $0.4 million reflected investments made to the delivery organization of our Data and Analytics Services segment, including the impact of the AmberLeaf acquisition. Operations expense in our IT Staffing Services segment increased by $0.2 million and related to increases in staff and related variable expenses – both reflecting higher activity levels in 2021.
 
   
Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $0.1 million higher in the 2021 period due to the AmberLeaf acquisition.
 
   
Revaluation of contingent consideration totaled a credit of $2.0 million in the 2021 period and related to the AmberLeaf acquisition. No contingent consideration existed on the Company’s balance sheet in the corresponding 2020 period.
 
   
General and administrative expense increased by $0.9 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. General and administrative expense in our Data and Analytics Services segment increased by $0.6 million due to executive leadership staff increases and higher stock-based compensation expense. In our IT Staffing Services segment, higher stock-based compensation expense and additional administrative staff (from the austerity-impacted levels of 2020) were responsible for a $0.3 million increase from 2020.
Other Income / (Expense) Components:
Other Income / (Expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of interest expense of ($159,000) and foreign exchange gains of $15,000. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Other Income / (Expense) consisted of interest expense of ($198,000) and foreign exchange gains of $41,000. The lower level of interest expense was reflective of debt repayments in the 2020 and 2021 periods.

Income Tax Expense:
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $1.4 million, representing an effective tax rate on
pre-tax
income of 27.7% compared to $488,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which represented a 14.1% effective tax rate on
pre-tax
income. The lower effective tax rate in the 2020 period largely reflected excess tax benefits related to the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted share units.
Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020:
Revenues:
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $103.4 million compared to $98.0 million for the corresponding six month period in 2020. This 5.5% year-over-year revenue increase reflected a 2.2% increase in our IT staffing services segment and a 25% increase in our data and analytics services segment, which represented flat organic growth when excluding the AmberLeaf acquisition. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had one client that had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 14.9%). For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had the same one client that had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 13.9%). The Company’s top ten clients represented approximately 48% and 47% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Revenues from our Data and Analytics Services segment totaled $17.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $14.1 million in the corresponding
six-month
period last year. Excluding revenues from the AmberLeaf acquisition, organic revenues were flat compared to the six months of 2020. Project delays continued to impact 2021 revenues during the first half of the year. New bookings were approximately $30 million and 32% above new bookings for the
six-month
period of 2020.
Revenues from our IT Staffing Services segment totaled $85.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $83.9 million during the corresponding 2020 period. This 2% increase reflected an increased level of billable consultants, partially offset by a lower average bill rate in the first half of 2021, when compared to the corresponding 2020 period. Billable consultants increased by
188-consultants
during the first six months of 2021 versus a decline of
132-consultants
during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Permanent placement / fee revenues were approximately $0.4 million during the six months of 2021, which were
in-line
with the corresponding 2020 period.
Gross Margins:
Gross profits in the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $27.1 million compared to $25.4 million in the corresponding period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 26.2% for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to 25.9% during the same period of 2020. This
30-basis
point improvement largely reflected a favorable mix of revenues between our two operating segments.

Gross margins from our Data and Analytics Services segment were 46.2% of revenues during the six month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to 49.5% in the corresponding period of 2020. This gross margin decline reflects a lower margin profile in our acquired AmberLeaf business.
Gross margins from our IT Staffing Services segment were 22.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 21.9% during the corresponding period of 2020. This
20-basis
point expansion was due to better gross margins on new assignments secured during the last several quarters.
Selling, General and Administrative (“S,G&A”) Expenses:
Below is a tabular presentation of operating expenses by sales, operations, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the revaluation of contingent consideration and general and administrative categories for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

S,G,&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $19.9 million or 19.2% of total revenues, compared to $19.3 million or 19.7% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Excluding the revaluation of contingent consideration in the 2021 period and the amortization of acquired intangible assets in both periods, S,G,&A expense as a percentage of total revenues would have been 19.6% and 18.3%, respectively. Fluctuations within S,G,&A expense components during the first six months of 2021, compared to the first six months of 2020, included the following:
 
   
Sales expense increased by $0.7 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. The entire $0.7 million increase reflected investments in the sales organization of our Data and Analytics Services segment, of which $0.5 million pertained to the AmberLeaf acquisition. Sales expense in our IT Staffing Services segment was flat on a year-over-year basis.
 
   
Operations expense increased by $0.5 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. Approximately $0.7 million reflected investments made to the delivery organization of our Data and Analytics Services segment, including the AmberLeaf acquisition. Operations expense in our IT Staffing Services segment declined by $0.2 million and largely related to reductions in staff although we started to
re-hire
in the second quarter to due increased demand.
 
   
Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $0.2 million higher in the 2021 period due to the AmberLeaf acquisition.
 
   
Revaluation of contingent consideration totaled a credit of $2.0 million in the 2021 period and related to the AmberLeaf acquisition. No contingent consideration existed on the Company’s balance sheet in the corresponding 2020 period.
 
   
General and administrative expense increased by $1.2 million in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period. General and administrative expense in our Data and Analytics Services segment increased by $0.8 million due to executive leadership staff increases and higher stock-based compensation expense. In our IT Staffing Services segment, higher stock-based compensation expense and additional administrative staff (from the austerity-impacted levels of 2020) were responsible for a $0.4 million increase from 2020.

Table of Contents
Other Income / (Expense) Components:
Other Income / (Expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of interest expense of ($354,000) and foreign exchange losses of ($22,000). For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Other Income / (Expense) consisted of interest expense of ($477,000) and foreign exchange gains of $94,000. The lower level of interest expense was reflective of debt repayments in 2021 and 2020.
Income Tax Expense:
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $1.9 million, representing an effective tax rate on
pre-tax
income of 27.5% compared to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which represented a 15.2% effective tax rate on
pre-tax
income. The lower effective tax rate in the 2020 period largely reflected excess tax benefits related to the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted share units.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
Financial Conditions and Liquidity:
At June 30, 2021, we had bank debt, net of cash balances on hand, of $10.0 million and approximately $26.1 million of borrowing capacity under our existing credit facility.
Historically, we have funded our organic business needs with cash generated from operating activities. Controlling our operating working capital levels by closely managing our accounts receivable balance is an important element of cash generation. At June 30, 2021, our accounts receivable “days sales outstanding” (“DSOs”) measurement was
63-days,
which improved by
2-days
from our DSO measurement at March 31, 2021. We believe that cash provided by operating activities, cash balances on hand and current availability under our credit facility will be adequate to fund our business needs and debt service obligations over the next twelve months, exclusive of any acquisition activity.
Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities:
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $0.2 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $11.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Elements of cash flow during the 2021 period were net income of $4.9 million,
non-cash
charges of $1.9 million and an increase in operating working capital levels of ($6.6 million). Elements of cash flow during the corresponding 2020 period were net income of $4.8 million,
non-cash
charges of $2.6 million and a decrease in operating working capital levels of $4.2 million. The operating working capital increase in the 2021 period reflected investment to support revenue growth. The operating working capital decrease in the 2020 period reflected an improvement in DSOs and higher payroll related accruals.
Cash flows (used in) investing activities:
Cash (used in) investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was ($525,000) compared to ($135,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2020. In 2021 capital expenditures and payments of office lease deposits accounted for investing activities. In 2020 capital expenditures accounted for all investing activities.
Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities:
Cash (used in) financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled ($1.9 million) and consisted of term loan debt repayments of ($2.2 million) partially offset by $0.3 million related to proceeds from the issuance of common shares and the exercise of stock options. Cash (used in) financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled ($9.4 million) and largely consisted of net debt payments on our term loan and revolving credit line of ($10.8 million) partially offset by $1.4 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements:
We do not have any
off-balance
sheet arrangements.

Inflation:
We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to minimize any effects of inflation on our operating results by controlling operating costs and, whenever possible, seeking to ensure that billing rates are adjusted periodically to reflect increases in costs due to inflation.
Seasonality:
Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants’ billable hours are affected by national holidays and vacation policies. Accordingly, we generally have lower utilization rates and higher benefit costs during the fourth quarter. Additionally, assignment completions tend to be higher near the end of the calendar year, which largely impacts our revenue and gross profit performance during the subsequent quarter.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards:
Recent accounting pronouncements are described in Note 16 to the accompanying financial statements.
 
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. Our cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to currency exchange rate variations. Foreign currency risk exists by nature of our global recruitment and delivery centers. In 2012 through 2015, we attempted to limit our exposure to currency exchange fluctuations in the Indian rupee via the purchase of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company elected not to engage in currency hedging activities in 2016 to date.
 
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act rules
13a-15(b)
and
15d-15(b).
Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the previously identified and disclosed material weaknesses described below.
The Company completed the acquisition of AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. on October 1, 2020 and has not yet included AmberLeaf in its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. The Company is currently integrating AmberLeaf into its operations, compliance programs and internal control processes. Accordingly, pursuant to the SEC’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment for one year following the acquisition, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures does not include AmberLeaf. AmberLeaf constituted approximately 17% of the Company’s total assets (inclusive of acquired intangible assets) as of June 30, 2021, and approximately 4% of the Company’s net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2021. AmberLeaf will be included in our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.
Previously Identified Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020, management has identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls related to (1) management review controls designed to address risks associated with complex accounting matters that arise from significant routine
and non-routine transactions
related to goodwill impairment, business combinations, revenue recognition, share-based compensation, and income taxes; and (2) information technology general controls in the areas of change management, information security and IT operations. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

Implementation of Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses
Management is in the process of implementing measures designed to improve the Company’s internal control over financial reporting to remediate these material weaknesses. Remediation activities and planning are subject to ongoing senior management review, as well as audit committee oversight. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we implemented the following changes to our internal control over financial reporting:
 
   
hired additional personnel in both the first and second quarters of 2021;
 
   
enhanced our management review control processes associated with complex accounting matters beginning in the first quarter and substantially completed in the second quarter of 2021; and
 
   
started the systems implementation process in the second quarter of 2021 to move the Data and Analytics subsidiary responsible for material weakness #2 above, to our Oracle Cloud ERP System, which is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2021.
While we believe the changes described above will improve our internal control over financial reporting, the implementation of these measures is ongoing and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or that we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses we have identified or avoid potential future material weaknesses. Accordingly, there could continue to be a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The certifications required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are filed as exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, respectively, to this quarterly report on Form
10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As described above, there were changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of our business, we are involved in a number of lawsuits and administrative proceedings. While uncertainties are inherent in the final outcome of these matters, management believes, after consultation with legal counsel, that the disposition of these proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021.
