1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes (the interim financial statements) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of PDI, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company or PDI) and related notes as included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended
December 31, 2013
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 6, 2014. The interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments that, in the judgment of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such interim financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the
three- and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2014
.
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management's estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates include accounting for business combinations, best estimate of selling price in multiple element arrangements, valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, self-insurance loss accruals, allowances for doubtful accounts and notes, income tax accruals, asset impairments and facilities realignment accruals. The Company periodically reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates as appropriate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
A reconciliation of the number of shares of common stock used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the
three- and nine-month periods ended

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company allocates the cost of acquired companies to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remaining amount classified as goodwill. Since the entities the Company has acquired do not have significant tangible assets, a significant portion of the purchase price has been allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The identification and valuation of these intangible assets and the determination of the estimated useful lives at the time of acquisition, as well as the completion of impairment tests require significant management judgments and estimates. These estimates are made based on, among other factors, consultations with an accredited independent valuation consultant, reviews of projected future operating results and business plans, economic projections, anticipated highest and best use of future cash flows and the market participant cost of capital. The use of alternative estimates and assumptions could increase or decrease the estimated fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets, and potentially result in a different impact to the Company's results of operations. Further, changes in business strategy and/or market conditions may significantly impact these judgments thereby impacting the fair value of these assets, which could result in an impairment of the goodwill. See Note 5, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for further information.
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually (as of December 31) and whenever events or circumstances change that indicate impairment may have occurred. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate of the pharmaceutical industry; unanticipated competition; and slower growth rates. Any adverse change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of goodwill and our consolidated financial results. At
September 30, 2014
, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Long-Lived Assets, including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets
The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the recorded value of the asset to its fair value measured by future discounted cash flows. This analysis requires estimates of the amount and timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are critical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary. At
September 30, 2014
, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Accounting Standards Updates
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP.
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients; or (ii) a retrospective approach with the
7
PDI, Inc.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)
cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which it will adopt the standard.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08 “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU 2014-08 provides new guidance related to the definition of a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently assessing the future impact of ASU 2014-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITIONS
On August 13, 2014, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Interpace Diagnostics, LLC (Interpace or IDx), consummated an agreement to acquire certain fully developed thyroid and pancreas cancer diagnostic tests, other tests in development for thyroid cancer, associated intellectual property and a biobank with more than
5,000
patient tissue samples (collectively the Acquired Property) from Asuragen, Inc. (Asuragen) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the Agreement). The Company paid $
8.0 million
at closing and will be obligated to pay an additional
$0.5 million
to Asuragen upon the successful completion by Asuragen of certain integral transition service obligations set forth in a transition services agreement, entered into concurrently with the Agreement. The Company also entered into two license agreements with Asuragen relating to the Company’s ability to sell the fully developed thyroid and pancreas cancer diagnostic tests and other tests in development for thyroid cancer. In addition, the Company will be obligated to make a milestone payment of
$0.5 million
to Asuragen upon the earlier of the launch of a pancreas product or February 13, 2016, and to pay royalties of
5.0%
on the future net sales of the pancreas diagnostics product line for a period of ten years following a qualifying sale,
3.5%
on the future net sales of the thyroid diagnostics product line through August 13, 2024 and
1.5%
on the future net sales of certain other thyroid diagnostics products for a period of ten years following a qualifying sale, collectively the contingent consideration.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination, subject to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 805-10-50 (ASC 805-10-50), and been treated as an asset acquisition for tax purposes. In connection with the transaction, the Company has preliminarily recorded
$13.0 million
of finite lived intangible assets having a weighted-average amortization period of
7.9
years. See Note 5, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for additional information.
The Company determined a preliminary acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration (inclusive of the aforementioned milestone payment and royalties on future net sales) of
$4.5 million
. The royalty portion of the contingent consideration is based on a probability-weighted income approach derived from estimated future revenues. The fair value measurement is based on significant subjective assumptions and inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 fair value measurement. Future revisions to these assumptions could materially change the estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration and therefore materially affect the Company’s future financial results. See Note 7, Fair Value Measurements, for further information. There was no change in the fair value of the contingent consideration during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Going forward, the Company will estimate the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration as of each reporting period and recognize the change in fair value in the statement of comprehensive income (loss). The reconciliation of consideration given for the Acquired Property to the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the assets and liabilities acquired based on their relative fair values is as follows:

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a valuation for which the estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The final allocation price could differ materially from the preliminary allocation. Any subsequent changes to the purchase price allocation that result in material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial results will be adjusted accordingly.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations reflecting the Company’s acquisition of the Acquired Property for the year ended three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are not provided as that presentation would require forward-looking information in order to meaningfully present the effects of the acquisition.
On August 21, 2014, the Company, through its wholly-owned Interpace subsidiary, acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of JS Genetics, Inc. (JS Genetics), a CLIA certified and CAP accredited molecular diagnostics lab located in New Haven, Connecticut. The Company paid $
0.5 million
at closing and assumed liabilities of approximately
$0.1 million
. The acquisition has initially been accounted for as an asset acquisition, subject to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 805-50-25 and been treated as such for tax purposes. In connection with the transaction, the Company has preliminarily recorded
$0.6 million
of finite lived intangible assets having an amortization period of approximately
2.3 years
. See Note 5, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for additional information.

INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with the unrealized holding gains or losses, net of tax, included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are computed based upon specific identification and included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations. Declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are recorded in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations and the cost basis of the security is reduced. The fair values for marketable equity securities are based on quoted market prices. Held-to-maturity investments are stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value. Interest income is accrued as earned. Realized gains and losses on held-to-maturity investments are computed based upon specific identification and included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The Company does not have any investments classified as trading.
Available-for-sale securities consist of assets in a rabbi trust associated with the Company’s deferred compensation plan. The carrying value of available-for-sale securities at
September 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, was approximately $
105,000
and
$103,000
, respectively, and is included in short-term investments. Available-for-sale securities as of both
September 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
consisted of approximately
$57,000
and $
55,000
in mutual funds, respectively, and approximately
$48,000
in money market accounts.
The Company’s other marketable securities consist of investment grade debt instruments such as obligations of U.S. Treasury and U.S. Federal Government agencies. These investments are categorized as held-to-maturity since the Company’s management has the ability and intent to hold these securities to maturity. The Company’s held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value and are maintained in separate accounts to support the Company’s letters of credit. The Company had standby letters of credit of approximately $
1.6 million
and
$2.0 million
as of
September 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, respectively, as collateral for its existing insurance policies and facility leases.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company's financial assets and liabilities reflected at fair value in the consolidated financial statements include: cash and cash equivalents; short-term investments; accounts receivable; other current assets; and accounts payable. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observable inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values into three broad levels as follows:
10
PDI, Inc.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)
Level 1:
Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2:
Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.
Level 3:
Valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation methodologies used for the Company's financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth in the tables below.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities is valued using market prices in active markets (level 1).
As of September 30, 2014
, the Company did not have any marketable securities in less active markets (level 2). In connection with the acquisition of the Acquired Property from Asuragen, the Company recorded $
4.5 million
of contingent consideration. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted income approach derived from revenue estimates. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. There was no change in the fair value of the contingent consideration during the period ended September 30, 2014.
The Company considers carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses to approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. There is no fair value ascribed to the letters of credit as management does not expect any material losses to result from these instruments because performance is not expected to be required.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Letters of Credit
As of
September 30, 2014
, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $
1.6 million
as required by its existing insurance policies and facility leases. These letters of credit are supported by investments in held-to-maturity

securities. See Note 3, Investments in Marketable Securities, for additional detail regarding investments in marketable securities.
Litigation
Due to the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged, such as product detailing and in the past, the distribution of products, it is subject to certain risks. Such risks include, among others, risk of liability for personal injury or death to persons using products the Company promotes or distributes. There can be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the future due to the nature of the Company’s business activities and recent increases in litigation related to healthcare products, including pharmaceuticals. The Company seeks to reduce its potential liability under its service agreements through measures such as contractual indemnification provisions with customers (the scope of which may vary from customer to customer, and the performance of which is not secured) and insurance. The Company could, however, also be held liable for errors and omissions of its employees in connection with the services it performs that are outside the scope of any indemnity or insurance policy. The Company could be materially adversely affected if it were required to pay damages or incur defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification agreement; if the indemnity, although applicable, is not performed in accordance with its terms; or if the Company’s liability exceeds the amount of applicable insurance or indemnity.
The Company routinely assesses its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where the Company assesses the likelihood of loss as probable. The Company accrues for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. In addition, in the event the Company determines that a loss is not probable, but is reasonably possible, and it becomes possible to develop what the Company believes to be a reasonable range of possible loss, then the Company will include disclosures related to such matter as appropriate and in compliance with ASC 450. To the extent there is a reasonable possibility that the losses could exceed the amounts already accrued, the Company will, as applicable, adjust the accrual in the period the determination is made, disclose an estimate of the additional loss or range of loss, indicate that the estimate is immaterial with respect to its financial statements as a whole or, if the amount of such adjustment cannot be reasonably estimated, disclose that an estimate cannot be made. As of
September 30, 2014
, the Company's accrual for litigation and threatened litigation was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In February 2014, under the terms of the stockholder-approved PDI, Inc. 2004 Stock Award Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan), the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board (the Compensation Committee) approved grants of restricted stock to certain executive officers and members of senior management of the Company. The full Board approved the portion of these grants made to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. As part of the Company's 2013 long-term incentive plan, these grants aggregated
173,990
shares of restricted stock issued with a weighted average grant date fair value of $
5.12
per share and
489,846
SARs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $
1.82
.
The grant date fair values of SARs awards are determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model. Assumptions utilized in the model are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and experience. The following table provides the weighted average assumptions used in determining the fair value of the non-market based SARs awards granted during the
nine-month periods ended

In February 2014, the Company’s chief executive officer was granted
188,165
market contingent SARs. The market contingent SARs have an exercise price of $
5.10
, a
five
year term to expiration, and a weighted-average fair value of
$1.87
. The fair value estimate of the market contingent SARs was calculated using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The market contingent SARs are subject to a time-based vesting schedule, but will not vest unless and until certain additional, market-based conditions are satisfied: (1) with respect to the initial
36,496
market contingent SARs, which vest on a time-based schedule on the first anniversary of the date of grant, the closing price of the Company’s common stock is at least
$7.65
per share for the average of
60
consecutive trading days anytime within
five years
from the grant date; (2) with respect to the next
64,460
market contingent SARs, which vest on a time-based schedule on the second anniversary of the date of grant, the closing price of the Company’s common stock is at least
$10.20
per share for the average of
60
consecutive trading days anytime within
five years
from the grant date; and (3) with respect to the final
87,209
market contingent SARs, which vest on a time-based schedule on the third anniversary of the date of grant, the closing price of the Company’s common stock is at least
$15.30
per share for the average of
60
consecutive trading days anytime within
five years
from the grant date. These stock prices represent premiums in excess of at least
50%
of the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
The Company recognized
$0.4 million
of stock-based compensation expense during each of the
three-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
and
2013
, and
$1.8 million
and
$1.5 million
for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
and
2013
, respectively.

INCOME TAXES
Generally, accounting standards require companies to provide for income taxes each quarter based on their estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes allows use of the discrete method when it provides a better estimate of income tax expense. Due to the Company's valuation allowance position, it is the Company's position that the discrete method provides a more accurate estimate of income tax expense and therefore income tax expense for the current quarter has been presented using the discrete method. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction. The following table summarizes income tax expense on (loss) income from continuing operations and the effective tax rate for the
three- and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014

INVESTMENT IN NON-CONTROLLED ENTITY AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS
In August 2013, PDI entered into phase one of a collaboration agreement with a privately held, emerging molecular diagnostics company (the Diagnostics Company) to commercialize its fully-developed, molecular diagnostic tests. The Diagnostics Company does not have experience in, or a history of, successfully commercializing diagnostic products. Under the terms of phase one of the collaboration agreement, PDI paid an initial fee of
$1.5 million
and had the ability to enter the second phase of the collaboration agreement in the form of a call option to purchase the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company. PDI has recorded the initial fee as an investment in a non-controlled entity within
Other current assets
in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with ASC 325-20 Investments Other - Cost Method Investments. The Company also has the option to contribute an additional
$0.5 million
for mutually agreed upon activities in furtherance of collaboration efforts.
In August 2014, PDI entered into an amendment to the collaboration agreement reducing the option price to a maximum amount of $
3.0 million
plus any amounts outstanding under the loan to the Diagnostics Company. If PDI purchases the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company, in addition to the option price, beginning in 2015, PDI would pay a royalty of
5.5%
on annual net revenue up to
$50.0 million
with escalating royalty percentages for higher annual net revenue capped at
7.5%
for annual net revenue in excess of
$100.0 million
. PDI can terminate the amended collaboration agreement if all milestones are not achieved by March 31, 2015 and receive a
$1.0 million
termination fee. If all milestones are achieved by March 31, 2015 and PDI has not exercised its option, the Diagnostics Company can terminate the collaboration agreement and pay PDI a termination fee of approximately $
1.5 million
. The amended collaboration agreement provides PDI the right to extend the effective date of termination until to September 30, 2015 by making a payment of $
0.5 million
(the Extension Fee) to the Diagnostics Company before the expiration of the termination notice period. If the Extension Fee is paid, and the Company thereafter purchases the outstanding stock of the Diagnostics Company, then the option price due at closing will be reduced by the amount of the Extension Fee. The amendment to collaboration agreement eliminated the Diagnostics Company's ability to require PDI to exercise the option to purchase the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company.
Through June 30, 2014, PDI loaned the Diagnostics Company approximately
$0.7 million
bearing a
4%
interest rate. In connection with the amendment to the collaboration agreement during the three month period ended September 30, 2014, the loan balance was reduced to $
0.6 million
. This loan is secured by the stock of Diagnostics Company and is payable to PDI at the sooner of: March 31, 2015; the expiration or termination of the collaboration agreement between the parties; the acquisition of the Diagnostics Company by PDI; or default by the Diagnostics Company. PDI recorded the loan receivable within
Other current assets
in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Other Arrangements
In October 2013, the Company entered into phase one of a collaboration agreement to commercialize CardioPredict™, a molecular diagnostic test developed by Transgenomic, in the United States. Under the terms of the collaboration agreement, PDI was responsible for all U.S.-based marketing and promotion of CardioPredict™, while Transgenomic would be responsible for processing CardioPredict™ in its state-of-the-art CLIA lab and all customer support. Both parties were responsible for their respective expenses. Subsequently, the Company has determined that it would not enter into the second phase of the collaboration agreement with Transgenomic and notified Transgenomic of its decision to terminate the collaboration agreement effective June 30, 2014.
PDI's costs related to both of these agreements are expensed in the Company's PC Services segment and reflected in
Cost of services
or
Selling, general and administrative expenses
in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss, depending upon the underlying nature of the expenses incurred.

OVERVIEW
19
PDI, Inc.
We are a leading provider of outsourced commercial services to established and emerging pharmaceutical, biotechnology and healthcare companies in the United States. We are a leading provider of outsourced sales teams that target healthcare providers, offering a range of complementary sales support services designed to achieve our customers' strategic and financial product objectives. In addition to outsourced sales teams, we also provide other promotional services including clinical educator services, digital communications, teledetailing and through our Interpace BioPharma business unit, we provide pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and diagnostics clients with full-service product commercialization solutions. Combined, our services offer customers a range of both personal and non-personal promotional options for the commercialization of their products throughout their lifecycles, from development through maturity. We provide innovative and flexible service offerings designed to drive our customers' businesses forward and successfully respond to a continually changing market. Our services provide a vital link between our customers and the medical community through the communication of product information to physicians and other healthcare professionals for use in the care of their patients. We provide these services through three reporting segments: Sales Services; Marketing Services; and Product Commercialization Services. These segments are described in detail under the caption
Description of Reporting Segments
below.
Our business depends in large part on demand from the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and healthcare industries for outsourced promotional services. In recent years, this demand has been impacted by certain industry-wide factors affecting pharmaceutical, biotechnology and healthcare companies, including, among other things, pressures on pricing and access, successful challenges to intellectual property rights (including the introduction of competitive generic products), a strict regulatory environment, decreased pipeline productivity and a slow-down in the rate of approval of new products by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additionally, a number of pharmaceutical companies have made changes to their commercial models by reducing the internal number of sales representatives. A significant portion of our revenue is derived from our sales force arrangements with large pharmaceutical companies, and we have therefore benefited from cost control measures implemented by these companies and their resultant increased reliance on outsourced promotional services. However, we are also experiencing fluctuations in revenue due to certain clients renewing with a smaller salesforce and the expiration of certain other contracts due to the timing of new business and the variable nature of our business. We believe that we will continue to experience a high degree of customer concentration and this trend may continue as a result of the continuing consolidation within the pharmaceutical industry.
With our proven record of outsourced promotional services expertise, we took action on our stated strategy of searching for product in-licensing, acquisition and partnering opportunities that could add more predictable, higher growth, higher margin business that can reduce the natural volatility of our current core businesses, and at the same time leverage the breadth of our installed infrastructure and strength of our core commercialization capabilities. Through our Interpace Diagnostics entity, we have executed on our announced strategy of becoming a leading commercialization company for the molecular diagnostics industry via in-licensing, acquiring or partnering. Given our proven core sales and marketing and full commercialization capabilities, we believe this is a natural extension for us and the strength of these core capabilities, our installed infrastructure and the ability to gain synergies significantly mitigates the risks associated with this strategy.
On October 31, 2014,we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Interpace Diagnostics, LLC (Interpace), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Agreement) to acquire RedPath Integrated Pathology, Inc. (RedPath), a molecular diagnostics company helping physicians better manage patients at risk for certain types of gastrointestinal cancers through its proprietary PathFinderTG® platform (the Transaction). The Transaction establishes Interpace in the upper gastroenterology cancer diagnostic market and provides us a growth platform in the diagnostic oncology space, particularly in endocrine and gastrointestinal cancer. We paid $12.0 million in cash at the closing and issued an interest-free note for $11.0 million to be paid in eight equal consecutive quarterly installments beginning October 1, 2016. The interest rate will be 5.0% in the event of a default under the Note.
We also entered into the Contingent Consideration Agreement. Pursuant to the Contingent Consideration Agreement, we agreed to issue 500,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 (Common Stock), upon acceptance for publication of a specified article related to PathFinderTG® for the management of Barrett’s esophagus, and an additional 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the commercial launch of PathFinderTG® for the management of Barrett’s esophagus (collectively, the Common Stock Milestones). We are obligated to make an additional $5 million cash payment upon our achievement of $14.0 million or more in annual net sales of PathFinderTG® for the management of Barrett’s esophagus and a further $5 million cash payment upon our achievement of $37.0 million or more in annual net sales of a basket of assays of Interpace and RedPath. In addition, we are obligated to pay revenue based payments through 2025 of 6.5% on annual net sales above $12.0 million of PathFinderTG®-Pancreas, 10% on annual net sales up to $30 million of PathFinderTG® for the management of Barrett’s esophagus and 20% on annual net sales above $30 million of PathFinderTG® for the management of Barrett’s esophagus.
In connection with the Transaction, we entered into the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, we were provided a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million (the Loan). The maturity date of
20
PDI, Inc.
the loan is October 31, 2020. The Loan bears interest at the greater of (a) three month LIBOR and (b) 1.0%, plus a margin of 12.5%, payable in cash quarterly in arrears, beginning on February 17, 2015. Beginning in January 2017, we will be required to make principal payments on the Loan. Beginning in January 2017 and ending on October 31, 2020, subject to a $250,000 per quarter cap, we will be required to pay quarterly revenue based payments equal to 1.25x of revenue derived from net sales of molecular diagnostics products. See Note 15 Subsequent Event included in this quarterly report of Form 10-Q for additional information regarding this Transaction.
On August 13, 2014, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the worldwide rights to the thyroid and pancreas diagnostic product lines from Asuragen, Inc (Asuragen). We paid $8.0 million at closing and will pay an additional $0.5 million at the end of the transition period, plus an additional milestone payment of $0.5 million contingent upon the launch of the pancreas product. In addition, we will pay royalties of 5% on the future net sales of the pancreas product line for 10 years and 3.5% on the future net sales of the thyroid diagnostics product line for 10 years plus 1.5% on the future net sales of certain other products.
In October 2013, we entered into phase one of a collaboration agreement to commercialize CardioPredict™, a molecular diagnostic test developed by Transgenomic, in the United States. Under the terms of the collaboration agreement, we were responsible for all U.S.-based marketing and promotion of CardioPredict™, while Transgenomic would be responsible for processing CardioPredict™ in its state-of-the-art CLIA lab and all customer support. Both parties were responsible for their respective expenses. We have subsequently determined that we would not enter into the second phase of the collaboration agreement with Transgenomic and have notified Transgenomic of our decision to terminate the collaboration agreement effective June 30, 2014.
In August 2013, we entered into phase one of a collaboration agreement with a privately held, emerging molecular diagnostics company (the Diagnostics Company) to commercialize their fully-developed, molecular diagnostic tests. The Diagnostics Company does not have experience in, or a history of, successfully commercializing diagnostic products. The initial test to be commercialized is fully developed. Under the terms of the collaboration agreement, we paid an initial fee of $1.5 million. In August 2014, we entered into an amendment to the collaboration agreement with the Diagnostics Company reducing the option price to a maximum amount of $
3.0 million
plus any amounts outstanding under the loan to the Diagnostics Company. If we purchase the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company, in addition to the option price, beginning in 2015, we would pay a royalty of
5.5%
on annual net revenue up to
$50.0 million
with escalating royalty percentages for higher annual net revenue capped at
7.5%
for annual net revenue in excess of
$100.0 million
. We can terminate the amended collaboration agreement if all milestones are not achieved by March 31, 2015. If all milestones are achieved by March 31, 2015 and we have not exercised our option, the Diagnostics Company can terminate the collaboration agreement and pay us a termination fee of approximately $
1.5 million
.
The amended collaboration agreement gives us the right to extend the effective date of termination until to September 30, 2015 by making a payment of $
0.5 million
(the Extension Fee) to the Diagnostics Company. If the Extension Fee is paid, and we thereafter purchase the outstanding stock of the Diagnostics Company, then the option price due at closing will be reduced by the amount of the Extension Fee. The amendment to the collaboration agreement eliminated the Diagnostics Company's ability to require us to exercise the option to purchase the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company.
While we recognize that there is currently significant volatility in the markets in which we provide services, we believe there are opportunities for growth in our Sales Services, Marketing Services and Product Commercialization Services businesses. These businesses provide our customers with the flexibility to successfully respond to a constantly changing market and a means of controlling costs through promotional outsourcing partnerships. We have recently intensified our focus on strengthening all aspects of the core outsourced pharmaceutical sales teams business that we believe will most favorably position PDI as the leading outsourced promotional services organization in the United States. In addition, we continue to diligently evaluate the risks and rewards of opportunities within our PC Services segment as they arise, while enhancing future value-added service offerings, as well as continue to evaluate acquisitions that will enhance our current service offerings and provide new business opportunities.

Consolidated Results of Operations.
Nature of Contracts by Segment
Sales Services
Contracts within our Sales Services reporting segment consist primarily of detailing agreements and are nearly all fee-for-service arrangements. The term of these contracts is typically between one and three years. On occasion, certain contracts have terms that are modestly shorter or longer due to the seasonal nature of the products or at the request of the customer. All agreements, whether or not specifically provided for by terms within the contract, may be renewed or extended upon mutual agreement of the parties. Renewed or extended contracts may include revised terms for provisions such as pricing, penalties, incentives and performance metrics.
The majority of our Sales Services contracts are terminable by the customer without cause upon 30 days’ to 120 days’ prior written notice. Additionally, certain contracts include provisions mandating that such notice may not be provided prior to a pre-determined future date and also provide for termination payments if the customer terminates the agreement without cause. Typically, however, the total compensation provided by minimum service periods (otherwise referred to as minimum purchase obligations) and termination payments within any individual agreement will not fully offset the revenue we would have earned from fully executing the contract or the costs we may incur as a result of its early termination. The loss or termination of multiple Sales Services contracts could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Our Sales Services contracts generally include standard mutual representations and warranties as well as mutual confidentiality and indemnification provisions, including product liability indemnification for our protection. Some of our contracts also include exclusivity provisions limiting our ability to promote competing products during the contract service period unless consent has been provided by the customer, and may also require the personnel we utilize to be dedicated exclusively to promoting the customer’s product for the term of the contract.
Some of our contracts, including contracts with significant customers of ours, may contain performance benchmarks requiring adherence to certain call plan metrics, such as a minimum amount of detailing activity to certain physician targets. Our failure to meet these benchmarks may result in specific financial penalties for us such as a reduction in our program management fee on our dedicated sales agreements, or a discount on the fee we are permitted to charge per detail on our established relationships agreements. Conversely, these same agreements generally include risk-based metrics which allow for incentive payments that can be earned if our promotional activities generate results that meet or exceed agreed-upon performance targets.
All of our contracts provide for certain reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses such as travel, meals and entertainment or product sample distribution costs, for which we are reimbursed at cost by our customers. Certain contracts may also provide for reimbursement of other types of expenses depending upon the type of services we are providing to the customer.
Marketing Services
Our Marketing Services reporting segment is comprised of our Group DCA and Voice business units. Our Group DCA business unit enters into contracts and performs services with our major clients that fall under the scope of a master service agreement(s) (MSAs) or statements of work (SOWs) and typically have a term of one to three years. These MSAs, and in certain instances, SOWs, include standard representations and warranties, as well as confidentiality and indemnification obligations, and are generally terminable by the customer or us, without cause or prior written notice, for any reason. If terminated, the customer is responsible for work completed to date, plus the cost of any nonrefundable commitments we made on their behalf. There is significant customer concentration within our Group DCA business unit.
22
PDI, Inc.
Our Voice business unit enters into contracts and performs services with our clients that generally take the form of MSAs and typically have a term of three months to one year.
PC Services
Our PC Services segment currently consists of our Interpace BioPharma business unit and our two collaboration agreements entered into in connection with our strategy of becoming a leading commercialization company for the molecular diagnostics industry.
In August 2011, Interpace BioPharma announced a two and one-half year fee-for-service arrangement with a pharmaceutical company. This contract includes standard representations and warranties, as well as mutual confidentiality and indemnification obligations for our protection, and is terminable by the customer without cause upon 180 days prior written notice after the first anniversary of the contract effective date. This contract includes incentive payments that can be earned if our promotional activities generate results that meet or exceed agreed-upon performance targets. In addition, this contract provides for certain reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses such as travel, meals and entertainment and product sample distribution costs, for which we are reimbursed at cost by our customer.
Due to the success of the program and to allow our customer to begin their long-term plan of building their own capabilities in the United States, this customer advised us that they wished to internalize selected commercialization activities as of October 1, 2012 and at the same time, extend other activities six months past the original December 31, 2013 contract expiration date to June 30, 2014. As anticipated, the contract terminated on its June 30, 2014 contract expiration date. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, this one customer accounted for all of the revenue in our PC Services segment.
We entered into two separate collaboration agreements to commercialize molecular diagnostic tests in 2013. Under the terms of our October 2013 strategic collaboration agreement with Transgenomic, we were responsible for all U.S.-based marketing and promotion of CardioPredict™. Prior to determining not to enter the second phase of the collaboration agreement with Transgenomic and notifying Transgenomic of our decision to terminate the collaboration agreement effective June 30, 2014, we bore the cost of our expenses only. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company incurred $0.4 million of costs related to this agreement.
Under the terms of our August 2013 collaboration agreement with a privately held molecular diagnostics company (the Diagnostics Company), that we amended in August 2014, if we enter into the second phase of the amended collaboration arrangement, we will be responsible for the full commercialization of their molecular diagnostic tests. Under the terms of the amended collaboration agreement, we paid an initial fee of $1.5 million and have the ability to enter the second phase of the collaboration agreement in the form of a call option to purchase the outstanding common stock of the Diagnostics Company. The option price is dependent on the achievement of commercialization during the collaboration period (the period up to the exercise of the purchase option or termination of the collaboration agreement) and could be up to $3 million. We can terminate the amended collaboration agreement if commercialization is not achieved by March 31, 2015 and would receive a $1.0 million termination fee. If commercialization is achieved by March 31, 2015 and we have not exercised our option, the Diagnostics Company can terminate the collaboration agreement and pay us a termination fee of approximately $1.5 million. If we purchase the Diagnostics Company, in addition to the option price based on the achievement of milestones, beginning in 2015, we would pay a royalty of 5.5% on annual net revenue up to $50 million with escalating royalty percentages for higher annual net revenue capped at 7.5% for annual net revenue in excess of $100 million.
On August 13, 2014, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Interpace, consummated an agreement to acquire fully developed thyroid and pancreas cancer diagnostic tests, other tests in development for thyroid cancer, associated intellectual property and a biobank with more than 5,000 patient tissue samples (collectively, the Acquired Property) from Asuragen, Inc. (Asuragen) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the Agreement). We paid $8.0 million at closing and will be obligated to pay an additional $0.5 million to Asuragen upon the successful completion by Asuragen of certain transition service obligations set forth in a transition services agreement, entered into concurrently with the Agreement. We also entered into two license agreements with Asuragen relating to the Company’s ability to sell the fully developed thyroid and pancreas cancer diagnostic tests and other tests in development for thyroid cancer. In addition, we will be obligated to make a milestone payment of $0.5 million to Asuragen upon the earlier of the launch of a pancreas product or February 13, 2016, and to pay royalties of 5.0% on the future net sales of the pancreas diagnostics product line for a period of ten years following a qualifying sale, 3.5% on the future net sales of the thyroid diagnostics product line through August 13, 2024 and 1.5% on the future net sales of certain other thyroid diagnostic products for a period of ten years following a qualifying sale.

Overview
We operate in three business segments: Sales Services; Marketing Services; and PC Services. During and subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2014 we differentiated ourselves by acting on our strategy of adding more predictable, higher growth, higher margin business that could help reduce the natural volatility of our current core business. We are and will continue to leverage the breadth of our installed infrastructure and the strength of our core commercialization capabilities. Given our proven core sales and marketing and full commercialization capabilities, we believe that this is a natural extension for us and the strength of our core capabilities, installed infrastructure and the ability to gain synergies significantly mitigates the risks associated with this strategy.

$8.2 million
and operating an operating loss of
$0.6 million
for the
nine months ended
September 30, 2014
and
2013
, respectively. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to the decrease in revenue and gross profit within both our Sales Services and Marketing Services segments as well as the efforts related to our molecular diagnostic strategy.
Provision for income tax
We had income tax expense of approximately
$0.2 million
for each of the
nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
and
September 30, 2013
. Income tax expense for the
nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
and
September 30, 2013
was primarily due to state and local taxes as we and our subsidiaries file separate income tax returns in numerous state and local jurisdictions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of
September 30, 2014
, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $
27.1
million and working capital of $
13.5 million
, compared to cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $
45.7
million and working capital of approximately $
31.3 million
at
December 31, 2013
. As of
September 30, 2014
, we had no commercial debt.
For the
nine-month period ended
September 30, 2014
, net cash used in operating activities was $
8.0
million, compared to net cash provided by operations of $0.2 million for the
nine-month period ended
September 30, 2013
. The main components of cash used in operating activities during the
nine-month period ended
September 30, 2014
were a net loss of
$8.6 million
and a decrease in accrued salaries and bonus of $2.8 million. The main components of net cash provided by operating activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013 were a decrease in accounts receivable of $6.7 million and a decrease in other current
29
PDI, Inc.
assets of $2.3 million, offset by a net loss of $0.9 million, an increase in unbilled receivables of $4.7 million and a decrease in unearned contract revenue of $2.5 million. The 2013 increase in unbilled costs and decrease in accounts receivable was primarily due to changes in billing terms in contracts with our largest customer.
As of
September 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, we had
$6.3
million and $
8.0
million of unbilled costs and accrued profits on contracts in progress, respectively. When services are performed in advance of billing, the value of such services is recorded as unbilled costs and accrued profits on contracts in progress. Normally, all unbilled costs and accrued profits are earned and billed within 12 months from the end of the respective period. As of
September 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, we had $
7.6
million and $
9.4
million of unearned contract revenue, respectively. When we bill clients for services before they have been completed, billed amounts are recorded as unearned contract revenue and are realized as revenue when earned.
For the
nine-month period ended
September 30, 2014
, we had net cash used in investing activities of
$10.5 million
which consisted of $8.0 million in our purchase of thyroid and pancreas cancer diagnostic tests, $0.5 million for a diagnostic testing lab, $1.3 million in capital expenditures and $0.6 million in loans made to the Diagnostics Company. There was $3.1 million of cash used in investing activities during the
nine-month period ended
September 30, 2013
, of which $1.6 million related to capital expenditures and $1.5 million was an investment in a non-controlled entity. All loans and capital expenditures were funded out of available cash.
For the
nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2014
and
September 30, 2013
, net cash used in financing activities consisted of shares of our stock that were delivered to us and included in treasury stock for the payment of taxes resulting from the vesting of restricted stock.
Going Forward
During the first nine months of 2014 we have differentiated ourselves by acting on our strategy of adding more predictable, higher growth, higher margin business that could reduce the natural volatility of our current core business. With our recent announcements of acquiring RedPath, as well as funding from our financing agreement, and certain product lines from Asuragen, we are executing on our strategic intent of becoming a leading commercialization company for the molecular diagnostics industry. We will continue to commercialize product lines, and expand commercialization as we exit 2014 and enter 2015. The final determination of our strategy is dependent upon, among other things, commercial responsiveness to promotional efforts.
In addition, we will continue to focus on the flawless execution of our outsourced promotional services programs in order to consistently deliver desired results. We recognize that our relationships with customers are dependent upon the quality of our performance and our ability to reach and engage their target audiences in a positive and meaningful manner. Through our core outsourced promotional services expertise, we will continue to provide innovative and flexible service offerings designed to drive our customers’ businesses forward and successfully respond to a continually changing market. We have, and will continue to, evolve our promotional capabilities for many large pharmaceutical companies, a variety of emerging and specialty pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies as well as diagnostic and other healthcare service providers.
We will continue to be diligent with our cash, supplemented by additional financings, to continue this strategy as commercializing these molecular diagnostic product lines will require additional resources in 2015. We will continue to refocus resources internally, and add both internal and external resources, to execute upon our strategy.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operations and available cash and cash equivalents. These sources of liquidity are needed to fund our working capital requirements, contractual obligations and estimated capital expenditures of approximately $2.0 million in 2014. We expect our working capital requirements to increase as a result of entering the molecular diagnostics industry and new customer contracts generally providing for longer than historical payment terms.
Considering the information provided above, we anticipate 2014 operations will result in a loss and 2014 cash flows will be negative. We estimate that cash as of December 31, 2014, could be in the range of $21 million to $23 million. We believe that we will require alternative forms of financing to achieve our strategic plan.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
PDI is a smaller reporting company as defined by the disclosure requirements in Regulation S-K of the SEC and therefore not required to provide this information.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible disclosure controls and procedures relative to their costs to implement and maintain.
Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal controls
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Below is the material change to the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2013
(Form 10-K). You should carefully consider the risk below and the risks described in our Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risk described below and in our Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations could be negatively affected.
We may experience impairment charges of our other intangible assets.
We are required to evaluate other intangible assets for impairment at least annually, and between annual tests if events or circumstances warrant such a test. These events or circumstances could include a significant long-term adverse change in the business climate, poor indicators of operating performance or a sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit. We test other intangible assets for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below our segments. Other intangible assets have been assigned to the reporting units to which the value of the other intangible assets relate. We currently have one reporting unit, Interpace Diagnostics, having other intangible assets. If we determine that the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss will be recorded in our statement of operations. The determination of fair value is a highly subjective exercise and can produce significantly different results based on the assumptions used and methodologies employed. If our projected long-term sales growth rate, profit margins or terminal growth rate are considerably lower and/or the assumed weighted-average cost of capital is considerably higher, future testing may indicate impairment and we would have to record a non-cash impairment loss in our statement of operations. See Note 5, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
