ON ASSIGNMENT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The December 31, 2014 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The financial statements include adjustments consisting of normal recurring items, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of On Assignment, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") and its results of operations for the interim dates and periods set forth herein. The results for any of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other period. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2014
("
2014
10-K").
The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the first quarter of 2014 has been reclassified to separate or combine certain line items to conform to the current period presentation.
2. Accounting Standards Update
In January 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01,
Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items
(“ASU No. 2015-01”). ASU No. 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items to simplify income statement presentation. Under the guidance an entity will no longer be able to segregate an extraordinary item from the results of operations, separately present an extraordinary item on the income statement, or disclose income taxes or earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. The ASU is effective for all entities for reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03,
Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
(“ASU 2015-03”). ASU No. 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt, consistent with debt discounts. It is effective for annual periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and must be applied on a retrospective basis with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-05,
Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)
(“ASU 2015-05”). ASU No. 2015-05 provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. It is effective for annual periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-05 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
3. Discontinued Operations
On February 1, 2015 the Company completed the sale of its Physician Segment for
$123.0 million
, of which
$6.0 million
was placed in escrow for a period of 12 months. The gain on the sale was
$25.7 million
(net of income taxes of
$14.4 million
), which was included in discontinued operations. The
$6.0 million
placed in escrow, along with a
$0.6 million
receivable related to net working capital adjustments, are included in current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2015. The operating results of this segment are presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for all periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 separately states the assets and liabilities of the Physician Segment as discontinued operations.

The following table is a reconciliation of the major classes of assets and liabilities of the Physician Segment that are presented separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014, to the previously reported balances:

On January 30, 2015 the Company amended its credit facility to not require a mandatory prepayment from the sale of the Physician Segment (see "
Note
3. Discontinued Operations
").
6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company carries retention policies for its workers’ compensation liability. The workers' compensation loss reserves are determined based on claims filed and claims incurred but not reported. The Company accounts for claims incurred but not yet reported based on estimates derived from historical claims experience and current trends of industry data. Changes in estimates and actual payments for claims are recognized in the period that the estimates change or the payments are made. The workers' compensation loss reserves were approximately
$1.9 million
and
$2.2 million
, net of anticipated insurance and indemnification recoveries of
$13.8 million
and
$13.4 million
, at
March 31, 2015
and
December 31, 2014
, respectively.
The Company has unused stand-by letters of credit outstanding to secure obligations for workers’ compensation claims with various insurance carriers. The unused stand-by letters of credit at
March 31, 2015
and
December 31, 2014
were
$3.2 million
.
The Company is subject to contingent consideration agreements entered into in connection with its acquisition of
CyberCoders, Inc.
("CyberCoders"). If the predetermined targets are met, the Company is obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of the contingent consideration agreements. As of
March 31, 2015
, the Company has potential future contingent consideratio
n of
$11.0 million
through the end of 2015.
Refer to "Note
7. Fair Value Measurements
" for further information related to this contingent liability.
The Company has entered into various non-cancelable operating leases, primarily related to its facilities and certain office equipment used in the ordinary course of business. The Company lea
ses
two
properties own
ed by related parties.
At
March 31, 2015
and
December 31, 2014
, the Company had an income tax reserve in other long-term liabilities related to uncertain tax positions of
$0.9 million
.
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on the facts currently available, the Company does not believe that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Prior to the sale of the Physician Segment on February 1, 2015, the Company additionally had various contingent liabilities that are now presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 (refer to "Note
3. Discontinued Operations
" for further information).

7. Fair Value Measurements
The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value based on their short-term nature. Long-term debt recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at
March 31, 2015
was
$334.6 million
. The f
air value of the long-term debt at that same date was
$334.2 million
as determined using the quoted price technique, based on Level 2 inputs including the yields of comparable companies with similar credit characteristics
.
The Company has an obligation to pay the former owners of CyberCoders, up to
$11.0 million
in cash, if certain future financial results are met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using an expected present value technique. Expected cash flows are determined using the probability-weighted average of possible outcomes that would occur should certain financial metrics be reached. There is no market data available to use in valuing the contingent consideration, therefore, the Company developed its own assumptions related to the future financial performance of the businesses to evaluate the fair value of these liabilities. As such, the contingent consideration is classified within Level 3.
The liability for contingent consideration is established at the time of the acquisition and finalized by the end of the measurement period. At the end of each quarter, the fair value of this liability is re-measured and the change in the fair value (after the measurement period) is included in the SG&A expenses.
The contingent consideration obligations measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were
$3.0 million
related to the acquisition of CyberCoders. This contingent consideration is presented within other long-term liabilities at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
The reconciliation of contingent consideration liability measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis with the use of significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) is as follows (in thousands):

Certain assets and liabilities, such as goodwill, are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (e.g., when there is evidence of impairment). For
the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
and 2014, no fair value adjustments were required for non-financial assets or liabilities.
8. Stockholders' Equity
On January 16, 2015, the Board of Directors approved a program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to
$100.0 million
of the Company’s common stock. The authorization was effective on February 23, 2015 and continues for two years thereafter. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company repurchased
43,000
shares of its common stock at a cost of
$1.6 million
. All shares repurchased under this program were retired. This resulted in a reduction of
$0.4 million
in paid-in capital, and a reduction of
$1.2 million
in retained earnings.

12. Income Taxes
For interim reporting periods, the Company prepares an estimate of the full-year income and the related income tax expense for each jurisdiction in which the Company operates. Changes in the geographical mix, permanent differences or estimated level of annual pre-tax income can impact the Company’s actual effective rate.
13. Segment Reporting
The Company has
three
reportable segments: Apex, Oxford, and Life Sciences Europe.
The Apex Segment provides information technology and scientific staffing professionals for contract, contract-to-hire and permanent placement positions to Fortune 1000 and mid-market clients across the United States, and offers consulting services for other select project-based needs. Apex Segment provides staffing and services support for companies from all major industries, including financial services, business services, consumer and industrials, technology, government services, and communications.
The Oxford Segment provides high-end contract placement services of information technology and engineering professionals with expertise in specialized information technology, software and hardware engineering, and mechanical, electrical, validation and telecommunications engineering fields. The Oxford Segment also provides direct hire placement services of professionals across many different fields and functions; the majority of its placements are information technology, finance, accounting, sales and engineering professionals.

These contract staffing specialties include chemists, clinical research associates, clinical lab assistants, engineers, biologists, biochemists, microbiologists, molecular biologists, food scientists, regulatory affairs specialists, lab assistants and other skilled scientific professionals.
The Company’s management evaluates the performance of each segment primarily based on revenues, gross profit, and operating income. The information in the following tables is derived directly from the segments’ internal financial reporting used for corporate management purposes. The Company's management does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset information, and such information is not readily available. Accordingly, assets by reportable segment are not disclosed.

OVERVIEW
On Assignment, Inc. is a leading global provider of highly skilled, hard-to-find professionals in the growing IT, engineering and life sciences sectors, where quality people are the key to success. We go beyond matching résumés with job descriptions to match people we know into positions we understand, for contract, contract-to-hire, and direct hire assignments.
The Apex Segment provides information technology and scientific staffing professionals for contract, contract-to-hire and permanent placement positions to Fortune 1000 and mid-market clients across the United States, and offers consulting services for other select project-based needs. Apex Segment provides staffing and services support for companies from all major industries, including financial services, business services, consumer and industrials, technology, government services, and communications.
The Oxford Segment provides high-end contract placement services of information technology and engineering professionals with expertise in specialized information technology, software and hardware engineering, and mechanical, electrical, validation and telecommunications engineering fields. The Oxford Segment also provides direct hire placement services of professionals across many different fields and functions; the majority of its placements are information technology, finance, accounting, sales and engineering professionals.
The Life Sciences Europe Segment provides services of laboratory and scientific professionals to the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, medical device, personal care, chemical and environmental industries. These contract staffing specialties include chemists, clinical research associates, clinical lab assistants, engineers, biologists, biochemists, microbiologists, molecular biologists, food scientists, regulatory affairs specialists, lab assistants and other skilled scientific professionals.
Seasonality
Demand for our staffing services historically has been lower during the first and fourth quarters due to fewer business days resulting from client shutdowns, adverse weather conditions and a decline in the number of contract professionals willing to work during the holidays. Demand for our staffing services usually increases in the second and third quarters of the year. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.

year-over-year. Contract revenues were
$406.1 million
, up from
$387.9 million
in the first quarter of 2014. Direct hire and conversion fee revenues for the quarter were
$23.9 million
, or
5.6 percent
of total revenues, up from
$19.0 million
, or
4.7 percent
of total revenues, in the first quarter of 2014. The increase is due to CyberCoders, which accounted for
$18.7 million
of direct hire and conversion fee revenues for the quarter, up from
$13.3 million
in the first quarter of 2014. The decline in the average currency exchange rates in the current quarter, compared with the same period in 2014, had an adverse effect on revenues of approximately $4.0 million. Accordingly, revenues on a constant currency basis for the current quarter were $434.0 million, up 6.7 percent year-over-year, or a full percentage point above our reported growth rate. Constant currency revenues and growth rates for the quarter are calculated using the foreign currency exchange rates from the same period in the prior year.
Apex accounted for
68.4 percent
of consolidated revenues. Revenues for Apex were
$294.3 million
, up
5.7 percent
year-over-year. This increase reflected a
3.0 percent
increase in the average number of contract professionals on assignment, and an
18.0 percent
increase in the average number of staffing consultants.
Oxford accounted for
29.6 percent
of consolidated revenues. Revenues for Oxford were
$127.5 million
, up
8.5 percent
year-over-year. This increase reflected a
14.8 percent
increase in the average number of contract professionals on assignment, and an
11.3 percent
increase in the average number of staffing consultants. Revenues for CyberCoders, which are included in the Oxford Segment, were
$22.5 million
, up from
$17.4 million
in the first quarter of 2014. The decline in the average currency exchange rates in the current quarter, compared with the same period in 2014, had an adverse effect on Oxford revenues of approximately $2.2 million. Accordingly, Oxford revenues on a constant currency basis for the current quarter were $129.7 million, up 10.4 percent year-over-year, or 1.9 percentage points above our reported growth rate.
Life Sciences Europe accounted for
1.9 percent
of consolidated revenues. Revenues for Life Sciences Europe were
$8.3 million
, down
24.3 percent
year-over-year. The decline in the average currency exchange rates in the current quarter, compared with the same period in 2014, had an adverse effect on Life Sciences Europe revenues of approximately $1.8 million. Accordingly, Life Sciences Europe revenues on a constant currency basis for the current quarter were $10.1 million. The decrease in revenues as reported was also partially due to a
7.6 percent
decrease in the average number of contract professionals.

4.7 percent
for the
first quarter
of 2014).
Apex accounted for
58.6 percent

and approximately $2.0 million related to our accelerated hiring of sales consultants and recruiters. SG&A expenses for the quarter were also higher due to the higher mix of direct hire and conversion fee revenues, which has higher gross margin and higher SG&A as a percent of revenue than our other business.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the quarter was
$4.9 million
, compared with
$5.5 million
in the same period of
2014
.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense (net of interest income) for the quarter was
$3.1 million
, compared with
$3.3 million
in the same period of
2014
. The decrease in interest expense is due to the lower carrying amount of debt (see "Note
5. Long-Term Debt
" in Item 1). Interest expense for the quarter was comprised of interest on the credit facility of $2.7 million and amortization of capitalized loan costs of $0.4 million.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was
$9.0 million
for the quarter, compared with
$9.6 million
for the same period of
2014
. The effective tax rate for the quarter was
40.8 percent
, a slight decrease from the 41.2 percent for the full year
2014
.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations include the net operating results of our Physician Segment (which was sold on February 1, 2015) and our European retained search business (which was shut down in December 2014). Discontinued operations for the quarter ended
March 31, 2015
included the gain of
$25.7 million
from the sale of the Physician Segment. Income from discontinued operations was
$0.4 million
for the quarter ended
March 31, 2015
, compared with
$0.3 million
in the same period of
2014
.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our working capital as of
March 31, 2015
was
$255.1 million
and our cash and cash equivalents were
$76.4 million
, of which
$7.9 million
was held in foreign countries. Cash held in foreign countries is not available to fund domestic operations unless repatriated. We do not intend to repatriate cash held in foreign countries. Our operating cash flows and borrowings under our credit facilities have been our primary source of liquidity and have been sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure needs. Our working capital requirements consist primarily of the financing of accounts receivable, payroll expenses and debt service payments on our credit facilities. We believe that our working capital as of
March 31, 2015
, availability under our revolving credit facility and expected operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future debt obligations, working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the next 12 months.
Net cash provided by operating activities was
$19.9 million
for the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
, compared with
$4.3 million
used in operating activities for the same period in
2014
. Net cash provided by operating activities for the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
was comprised of net income of
$39.1 million
and non-cash items of
$13.5 million
, reduced by the
$25.7 million
gain from the sale of the Physician Segment, and
$7.0 million
year-over-year change in net operating assets. Net cash used in operating activities in the same period in
2014
was comprised of net income of
$13.9 million
and non-cash items of
$13.7 million
, reduced by
$31.9 million
year-over-year change in net operating assets.
Net cash provided by investing activities was
$106.9 million
for the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
, compared with
$3.9 million
used in investing activities for the same period in 2014. The increase was primarily due to
$114.9 million
net proceeds from sale of the Physician Segment.
Net cash used in financing activities was
$81.5 million
for the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
, compared with
$5.4 million
for the same period in 2014. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 consisted primarily of
$80.6 million
in principal payments of long-term debt. Net cash used in financing activities in the same period in 2014 consisted primarily of
$105.5 million
in principal payments of long-term debt, partially offset by proceeds of
$99.5 million
from new borrowings.
Under terms of our credit facility, we are required to make quarterly payments of $4.6 million on the term A loan facility. We are also required to make mandatory prepayments from excess cash flow and with the proceeds of asset sales, debt issuances and specified other
17
events. On January 30, 2015, we amended our credit facility to not require a mandatory prepayment from the sale of our Physician Segment (see "
Note
3. Discontinued Operations
"). The maximum ratio of consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA steps down from
3.50
to 1.00 as of
March 31, 2015
to 3.25 to 1.00 as of June 30, 2015 and thereafter. As of
March 31, 2015
, the leverage ratio was
1.77
to 1.00. Additionally, the credit facility, which is secured by substantially all of our assets, provides for certain limitations on our ability to, among other things, incur additional debt, offer loans, and declare dividends. As of
March 31, 2015
, we had
$121.8 million
of borrowings available under our revolving credit facility.
On January 16, 2015, our Board of Directors approved a $100.0 million share repurchase program. The authorization was effective February 23, 2015 and continues for two years thereafter. During the first quarter we repurchased 43,000 shares for $1.6 million ($38.26 average price per share). The remaining amount available under the program is $98.4 million.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01,
Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items
(“ASU No. 2015-01”). ASU No. 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items to simplify income statement presentation. Under the guidance an entity will no longer be able to segregate an extraordinary item from the results of operations, separately present an extraordinary item on the income statement, or disclose income taxes or earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. The ASU is effective for all entities for reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03,
Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
(“ASU 2015-03”). ASU No. 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt, consistent with debt discounts. It is effective for annual periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and must be applied on a retrospective basis with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-05,
Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)
(“ASU 2015-05”). ASU No. 2015-05 provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. It is effective for annual periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-05 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
compared with those disclosed in Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our
2014
10-K.
Commitments
In connection with certain acquisitions, we are subject to contingent consideration agreements. If the acquired businesses meet predetermined targets, we are obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of such contingent consideration agreements. As of
March 31, 2015
, we have potential future contingent consideration of approximately
$11.0 million
through 2015.
Other than those described above, we have not entered into any significant commitments or contractual obligations that have not been previously disclosed in our
2014
10-K.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks
With respect to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks, there have been no material changes to the information included in our
2014
10-K. We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of business, principally risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates. We are exposed to foreign currency risk from the translation of foreign operations into U.S. dollars. Based on the relative size and nature of our foreign operations, we do not believe that a 10 percent change in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar would have a material impact on our financial statements. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt instruments. See the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further description of our debt instruments. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates on variable rate debt would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating approximately
$3.3 million
based on
$334.6 million
of debt outstanding for any 12-month period. We have not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.
Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
three months ended
March 31, 2015
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
