NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)

1.     

Basis of Presentation




The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements of RCM Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“RCM” or the “Company”) are unaudited. The year-end consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to reports on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 29, 2007 included in the Company’s Annual Report Form 10-K for such period, filed on March 20, 2008. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The consolidated financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such interim periods.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year.

2.     Fiscal Year

The Company follows a 52/53 week fiscal reporting calendar ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. A 53-week year occurs periodically. The fiscal year ended December 29, 2007 was a 52-week reporting year. The second fiscal quarter of 2007, the 2007 fiscal year and the second fiscal quarter of 2008 ended on the following dates, respectively:
 

Period Ended

 

Weeks in Quarter

Weeks in Year to Date

3.     Use of Estimates and Uncertainties

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company uses estimates to calculate an allowance for doubtful accounts on its accounts receivables. These estimates can be significant to the operating results and financial position of the Company.
 
The Company has risk participation arrangements with respect to workers compensation and health care insurance. The amounts included in the Company’s costs related to this risk participation are estimated and can vary based on changes in assumptions, the Company’s claims experience or the providers included in the associated insurance programs.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)

3.     Use of Estimates and Uncertainties (Continued)

The Company can be affected by a variety of factors including uncertainty relating to the performance of the U.S. economy, competition, demand for the Company’s services, adverse litigation and claims and the hiring, training and retention of key employees.

4.     Note Receivable     

On February 26, 2008, the Company accepted a promissory note from a customer for $7.5 million, which includes interest, in payment of a like amount of accounts receivable from that customer. The note provides that $3.1 million is payable within 12 months and the remaining $4.4 million is payable in 36 monthly installments of $152,000, including principal and interest at 6% per annum through July 2011. The customer paid $1.2 million through April 30, 2008. The note receivable is collateralized by a second position on all of the customer’s accounts receivable as well as the personal guarantees of all its officers. On April 30, 2008, management of the Company concluded that the customer was going to default on its May 1, 2008 installment payment and the Company at that time determined that the note receivable will not likely be collectible. Therefore, the Company recorded a $6.1 million provision for this doubtful account for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008.

5.     Acquisitions

On March 19, 2008 the Company purchased the operating assets of NuSoft Solutions, Inc. (“NuSoft”), a Michigan corporation. NuSoft is a specialty provider of information technology services. The acquisition of NuSoft was completed in order to expand the Company’s IT solutions services within the Information Technology business segment. The acquisition was effective as of March 1, 2008. The acquisition has been accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired company have been included in the consolidated results of operations of the Company from the effective date and are included in the IT segment.

The purchase consideration at closing consisted of $4.5 million in cash and 700,000 shares of RCM’s common stock, par value $0.05 (the “Common Stock”), valued at $3.5 million and potential earn-out payments up to $4.4 million of deferred consideration contingent upon NuSoft achieving certain base levels of operating income for each of the three 12- month periods following the purchase. Additional earn-out payments may be made at the end of each of the three 12 month periods following the purchase, to the extent that operating income exceeds these base levels. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The source of cash utilized in the NuSoft acquisition was from the Company's revolving credit facility. The allocation of the long-lived assets had not been completed as of the first quarter ended March 29, 2008. The purchase price allocation of $8.2 million was subsequently completed and the allocation is as follows:

Customer Relationships

$2.3 million

Covenants-Not-To-Compete

0.4 million

Goodwill

5.1 million

Equipment

0.4 million



The deferred consideration and earnouts, if paid, will be recorded as additional purchase consideration. Earnouts cannot be estimated with any certainty.

5.     Acquisitions (Continued)

On April 28, 2008 the Registrant purchased the operating assets of MBH Solutions, Inc. (“MBH”), a New York corporation. MBH is a specialty provider of information technology services. The acquisition of MBH was completed in order to expand the Company’s IT solutions services within the Information Technology business segment. The acquisition was effective as of April 1, 2008. The acquisition has been accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired company have been included in the consolidated results of operations of the Company from the effective date and are included in the IT segment.

The MBH purchase consideration at closing consisted of $1.8 million in cash and assumption of $0.5 million in deferred revenues and 50,000 shares of the Common Stock valued at $205,000 and potential earn-out payments up to $1.5 million of deferred consideration contingent upon MBH achieving certain base levels of operating income for each of the three 12-month periods following the purchase. Additional earn-out payments may be made at the end of each of the three 12-month periods following the purchase, to the extent that operating income exceeds these base levels.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The source of cash utilized in the MBH acquisition was from the Company’s revolving credit facility. The purchase price allocation of $2.6 million has been allocated as follows:

Customer Relationships

$0.8 million

Covenants-Not-To-Compete

Goodwill

1.7 million

The deferred consideration and earnouts, if paid, will be recorded as additional purchase consideration. Earnouts cannot be estimated with any certainty.

The following results of operations have been prepared assuming the two previous described acquisitions had occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented. Those results are not necessarily indicative of results of future operations or of results that would have occurred had the acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented.

5.     Acquisitions (Continued)

In connection with certain acquisitions, the Company is obligated to pay contingent consideration to the sellers upon the acquired business achieving certain earnings targets over periods ranging from two to three years following the acquisition. In general, the contingent consideration amounts fall into two categories: (a) Deferred Consideration - fixed amounts due if the acquisition achieves a base level of earnings which has been determined at the time of acquisition and (b) Earnouts amounts payable that are not fixed and are based on the growth in excess of the base level earnings. The Company’s outstanding Deferred Consideration obligations, which relate to various acquisitions, could result in approximately the following actual payments:

The Deferred Consideration and Earnouts, when paid, will be recorded as additional purchase consideration and added to goodwill on the consolidated balance sheet. Earnouts cannot be estimated with any certainty.

6.     Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated on the straight-line method at rates calculated to provide for retirement of assets at the end of their estimated useful lives. The annual rates are 20% for computer hardware and software as well as furniture and office equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term.
 
The Company writes off fully depreciated assets periodically. During the twenty-six weeks
ended June 28, 2008, the write offs were $1.2 million.

7.     New Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS No. 157"). SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under SFAS No. 157, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157," to partially defer SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. SFAS No. 157 was effective for the Company on December 30, 2007, except for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis for which our effective date is December 30, 2008. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS No. 159"). SFAS No. 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards, which require assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value. Under SFAS No. 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees, issued debt and other eligible financial instruments. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company as of December 30, 2008.

7.     New Accounting Standards (Continued)

The Company has elected not to apply the fair value option to measure any of the financial assets and liabilities on its balance sheet not already valued at fair value under other accounting pronouncements. These other financial assets and liabilities are primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt which are reported at historical value. The fair value of these financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of their short duration and in the case of the debt because it carries variable interest rates which are reset frequently.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”). This statement replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141R requires costs incurred to effect the acquisition to be recognized separately from the acquisition as period costs. SFAS No. 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize restructuring costs that the acquirer expects to incur, but is not obligated to incur, separately from the business combination. In addition, SFAS No. 141R requires an acquirer to recognize assets and liabilities assumed arising from contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date, measured at their acquisition-date fair values. Other key provisions of this statement include the requirement to recognize the acquisition-date fair values of research and development assets separately from goodwill and the requirement to recognize changes in the amount of deferred tax benefits that are recognizable due to the business combination in either income from continuing operations in the period of the combination or directly in contributed capital, depending on the circumstances. With the exception of certain tax-related aspects described above, SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after December 28, 2008.

8.     Line of Credit

The Company and its subsidiaries are party to a loan agreement with Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, administrative agent for a syndicate of banks, which provides for a $25 million revolving credit facility and includes a sub-limit of $5.0 million for letters of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at one of two alternative rates, as selected by the Company at each incremental borrowing. These alternatives are: (i) LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), plus applicable margin, or (ii) the agent bank's prime rate.

All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and a pledge of the stock of its subsidiaries. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains various financial and non-financial covenants, such as restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends.

The Revolving Credit Facility expires in August 2011. The weighted average interest rates, which include unused line fees, under the Revolving Credit Facility for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007 were 4.1% and 35.4%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for the 2007 period was disproportionately high in relation to the interest expense incurred because of the inclusion of unused line fees of $7,600. During the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007, the Company’s outstanding borrowings ranged from $-0- to $10.0 million and $-0- million to $1.5 million, respectively. At June 28, 2008 and December 29, 2007, there were $10.0 million and $-0- outstanding borrowings under this facility, respectively. At June 28, 2008, there were letters of credit outstanding for $1.6 million. At June 28, 2008, the Company had availability for additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility of $13.4 million.

10.     Goodwill and Intangibles

SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”), requires the Company to perform a goodwill impairment test on at least an annual basis. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for the businesses, the useful life over which cash flows will occur and determination of the Company’s weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or conclusions on goodwill impairment for each reporting unit. The Company conducts its annual goodwill impairment test as of November 30. The Company compares the fair value of each of its reporting units to their respective carrying values, including related goodwill. There were no triggering events during the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 that have indicated a need to perform the impairment test prior to the Company's annual test date.
 

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 are as follows:

12.     Earnings Per Share

     Both basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share for all periods are calculated based on the reported earnings in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

     The number of common shares used to calculate basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007 was determined as follows:

In the reporting periods where there is net loss, the basic weighted average shares are used to determine loss per share because diluted shares would be antidilutive.

13.     Share - Based Compensation

At June 28, 2008, the Company had five share-based employee compensation plans. The Company measures the fair value of stock options, if and when granted, based upon the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. All grants typically vest over a three-year period and expire within 10 years of issuance. Stock options that vest in accordance with service conditions amortize over their applicable vesting period using the straight-line method.

13.     Share - Based Compensation (Continued)

The Company recognizes compensation costs in the financial statements for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment, revised 2004" ("SFAS No. 123R"). Compensation cost recognized in 2008 and 2007 included: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, and (b) compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), adjusted for estimated forfeitures. The straight-line recognition method is used to recognize compensation expense associated with share-based payments that are subject to graded vesting based on service conditions.

Share-based compensation expense of $197, or $0.02 per diluted share, and of $94, or $0.01 per diluted share, was recognized for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively.
 
Share-based compensation expense of $104, or $0.01 per diluted share, and credit of $93, or $0.01 per diluted share, was recognized for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively.
 
The Company anticipates that share-based compensation will not exceed $400 for the year ending December 27, 2008 based on existing options as of June 28, 2008.

The weighted average fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model during the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007 has been estimated using the following assumptions:

Incentive Stock Option Plans

1992 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the 1992 Plan)

The 1992 Plan, approved by the Company’s stockholders in April 1992 and amended in April 1998, provided for the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of common stock per individual to officers, directors, and key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries through February 13, 2002, at which time the 1992 Plan expired. The options issued were intended to be incentive stock options pursuant to Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code. The option terms were not permitted to exceed 10 years and the exercise price was not permitted to be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determined the vesting period at the time of grant for each of these options. As of June 28, 2008, options to purchase 68,455 shares of common stock granted under the 1992 Plan were outstanding.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may award incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options, as well as stock appreciation rights, and determines the vesting period at the time of grant. As of June 28, 2008, 8,694 shares of common stock were available for future grants under the 2000 Plan, and options to purchase 494,500 shares of common stock granted under the 2000 Plan were outstanding.

No more than 350,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate may be issued pursuant to grants of stock awards, stock units, performance shares and other stock-based awards. No more than 300,000 shares of common stock with respect to awards may be granted to any individual during any fiscal year. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determines the vesting period at the time of grant. As of June 28, 2008, 668,900 shares of common stock were available for future grants under the 2007 Plan, and options to purchase 31,000 shares of common stock granted under the 2007 Plan were outstanding.

We understand that, although security analysts frequently use EBITDA in the evaluation of companies, it is not necessarily comparable to EBITDA of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. EBITDA is not intended as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, nor as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance, nor as an alternative to any other measure of performance in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

15.     Contingencies

In late 1998, two shareholders who were formerly officers and directors of the Company filed suit against the Company. The former officers and directors alleged that the Company wrongfully limited the number of shares of the Company's common stock that could have been sold by the plaintiffs under a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with an acquisition transaction pursuant to which the plaintiffs became shareholders of the Company.
 

A trial in 2002 resulted in a judgment in favor of the plaintiffs for $7.6 million that was affirmed on appeal. In June 2006, the Company paid $8.6 million, which included post-judgment interest and other items totaling $1.0 million to the plaintiffs to satisfy the judgment.
 
In November 2002, the Company filed suit on professional liability claims against the attorneys and law firms who had served as its counsel in the acquisition transaction and in connection with its subsequent dealings with the plaintiffs concerning their various relationships with the Company resulting from that transaction. In its lawsuit against its former counsel, the Company is seeking complete indemnification with respect to (1) its costs and counsel fees incurred in the defense against the claims of the plaintiffs; (2) the amount it paid to satisfy the judgment; and (3) its costs and counsel fees incurred in the prosecution of the legal malpractice action itself. In February 2007, the Company reached a settlement with one of the law firm defendants resulting in the recovery of $0.8 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Overview

RCM participates in a market that is cyclical in nature and sensitive to economic changes. As a result, the impact of economic changes on revenues and operations can be substantial, resulting in significant volatility in the Company’s financial performance.

RCM’s operational performance began to lose positive momentum in the second half of 2007 due to a weakening global economy and recessionary concerns. This slowdown has continued into the first half of 2008 as the business environment remains a challenging one. Despite the sluggish economy, gross profit margins improved in the second quarter of 2008 as compared to second quarter of 2007 with the addition of two strategic acquisitions to the Company’s enterprise business solutions business unit. The Company continues to be vigilant in monitoring its operating cost structure.

Over the years, RCM has developed and assembled an attractive portfolio of capabilities, established a proven record of performance and credibility and built an efficient pricing structure. The Company is committed to optimizing its business model as a single-source premier provider of business and technology solutions with a strong vertical focus offering an integrated suite of services through a global delivery platform.

The Company believes that most companies recognize the importance of advanced technologies and business processes to compete in today’s business climate. However, the process of designing, developing and implementing business and technology solutions is becoming increasingly complex. The Company believes that many businesses today are focused on return on investment analysis in prioritizing their initiatives. This has an impact on spending by current and prospective clients for many emerging new solutions.

Nonetheless, the Company continues to believe that businesses must implement more advanced IT and engineering solutions to upgrade their systems, applications and processes so that they can maximize their productivity and optimize their performance in order to maintain a competitive advantage. Although working under budgetary, personnel and expertise constraints, companies are driven to support increasingly complex systems, applications and processes of significant strategic value. This has given rise to a demand for outsourcing. The Company believes that its current and prospective clients are continuing to evaluate the potential for outsourcing business critical systems, applications and processes.

The Company provides project management and consulting services, which are billed based on either agreed-upon fixed fees or hourly rates, or a combination of both. The billing rates and profit margins for project management and solutions services are higher than those for professional consulting services. Consequently, the Company is focused more on transitioning to higher value, higher margin solutions offerings. The Company also realizes revenues from client engagements that include the placement of contract and temporary technical consultants and non-technical labor. These services are primarily provided to the client at hourly rates that are established for each of the Company’s consultants based upon their skill level, experience and type of work performed.

The majority of the Company's services are provided under purchase orders. Contracts are utilized on certain of the more complex assignments where the engagements are for longer terms or where precise documentation of the nature and scope of the assignment is necessary. Although contracts normally relate to longer-term and more complex engagements, they do not obligate the customer to purchase a minimum level of services and are generally terminable by the customer on 60 to 90 days’ notice. Revenues are recognized when services are provided.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Overview (Continued)

Costs of services consist primarily of salaries and compensation-related expenses for billable consultants, including payroll taxes, employee benefits, and insurance. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits of personnel responsible for business development, recruiting, operating activities, and training, and include corporate overhead expenses. Corporate overhead expenses relate to salaries and benefits of personnel responsible for corporate activities, including the Company's corporate marketing, administrative and reporting responsibilities and acquisition program. The Company records these expenses when incurred. Depreciation relates primarily to the fixed assets of the Company. Amortization relates to the allocation of the purchase price of an acquisition, which has been assigned to covenants not to compete, and customer lists. Acquisitions have been accounted for under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Account Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and have created goodwill.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make subjective decisions, assessments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the judgment increases, such judgments become even more subjective. While management believes its assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, actual results may be materially different from estimated. Management has identified certain critical accounting policies, described below, that require significant judgment to be exercised by management.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenues from several sources. All of the Company’s segments perform consulting and staffing services. The Company’s Engineering Services and Information Technology Services segments also perform project services. All of the Company’s segments derive revenue from permanent placement fees.
 

Project Services - The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” which clarifies application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to revenue transactions. Project services are generally provided on a cost-plus-fixed-fee or time-and-material basis. Typically, a customer will outsource a discrete project or activity and the Company assumes responsibility for the performance of such project or activity. The Company recognizes revenues and associated costs on a gross basis as services are provided to the customer and costs are incurred using its employees. The Company, from time to time, enters into contracts requiring the completion of specific deliverables.  The Company recognizes revenue on these deliverables at the time the client accepts and approves the deliverables. In instances where project services are provided on a fixed-price basis and the contract will extend beyond a 12-month period, revenue is recorded in accordance with the terms of each contract. In some instances, revenue is billed and recorded at the time certain milestones are reached, as defined in the contract. In other instances, revenue is billed and recorded based upon contractual rates per hour. In addition, some contracts contain “Performance Fees” (bonuses) for completing a contract under budget. Performance Fees, if any, are recorded when the contract is completed and the revenue is reasonably certain of collection. Some contracts also limit revenues and billings to maximum amounts. Provision for contract losses, if any, is made in the period such losses are determined. For contracts where there are multiple deliverables and the work has not been 100% complete on a specific deliverable, the costs have been deferred. The associated costs are expensed when the related revenue is recognized.

28

RCM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

Consulting and Staffing Services - Revenues derived from consulting and staffing services are recorded on a gross basis as services are performed and associated costs have been incurred using employees of the Company. In these circumstances, the Company assumes the risk of acceptability of its employees to its customers. In certain cases, the Company may utilize other companies and their employees to fulfill customer requirements. In these cases, the Company receives an administrative fee for arranging for, billing for, and collecting the billings related to these companies. The customer is typically responsible for assessing the work of these companies who have responsibility for acceptability of their personnel to the customer. Under these circumstances, the Company’s reported revenues are net of associated costs (effectively the administrative fee).

Permanent Placement Services - The Company earns permanent placement fees from providing permanent placement services. Fees for placements are recognized at the time the candidate commences employment. The Company guarantees its permanent placements on a prorated basis for 90 days. In the event a candidate is not retained for the 90-day period, the Company will provide a suitable replacement candidate. In the event a replacement candidate cannot be located, the Company will provide a prorated refund to the client. An allowance for refunds, based upon the Company’s historical experience, is recorded in the financial statements. Revenues are recorded on a gross basis as a component of revenue.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are primarily due from trade customers. Credit is extended based on evaluation of customers’ financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable payment terms vary and are stated in the financial statements at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of businesses acquired over the fair market value of identifiable assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”), the Company performs its annual goodwill impairment testing, by reportable unit, as of November 30 of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for the businesses, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of the Company’s weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or conclusions on goodwill impairment for each reporting unit. The Company conducted its annual goodwill impairment test for 2007 as of November 30, 2007 and identified no impairments. Goodwill was $46.4 million and $39.6 million at June 28, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively.

29

RCM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets and intangible assets with definite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When it is probable that undiscounted future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover an asset’s carrying amount, the asset is written down to its fair value. Assets to be disposed of by sale, if any, are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Accounting for Stock Options

The Company uses stock options to attract, retain and reward employees for long-term service.

Effective as of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to stock-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS No. 123R covers a wide range of stock-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights and employee stock purchase plans.

In addition to the accounting standard that sets forth the financial reporting objectives and related accounting principles, SFAS No. 123R includes an appendix of implementation guidance that provides expanded guidance on measuring the fair value of stock-based payment awards. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB No. 107”) relating to SFAS No. 123R. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB No. 107 in its adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

Since the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, effective January 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective transition method, the Company is required to record compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company measures stock-based compensation cost using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Accounting for Income Taxes

In establishing the provision for income taxes and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the Company makes judgments and interpretations based on enacted tax laws, published tax guidance and estimates of future earnings. As of June 28, 2008, the Company had total net deferred tax assets of $2.4 million, primarily representing the tax effect of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the likelihood that future taxable income will be sufficient to realize these benefits over time, and the effectiveness of tax planning strategies in the relevant tax jurisdictions. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates and assessments, valuation allowances may be required.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007. The Company recognized no material adjustments in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits due to the adoption of FIN 48. The Company conducts its operations in multiple tax jurisdictions in the United States and Canada. With limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to audits by tax authorities for tax years prior to 2003. At
June 28, 2008, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions.

The Company’s future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by changes in the valuation of its deferred tax assets or liabilities or changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. In addition, the Company is subject to the examination of its income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Accrued Bonuses

The Company pays bonuses to certain executive management, field management and corporate employees based on, or after giving consideration to, a variety of financial performance measures. Executive management, field management and certain corporate employees’ bonuses are accrued throughout the year for payment during the first quarter of the following year, based in part upon anticipated annual results compared to annual budgets. In addition, the Company pays discretionary bonuses to certain employees, which are not related to budget performance. Variances in actual results versus budgeted amounts can have a significant impact on the calculations and therefore on the estimates of the required accruals. Accordingly, the actual earned bonuses may be materially different from the estimates used to determine the quarterly accruals.

Forward-looking Information

The Company’s growth prospects are influenced by broad economic trends. The pace of customer capital spending programs, new product launches and similar activities have a direct impact on the need for consulting and engineering services as well as temporary and permanent employees. When the U.S. and Canadian economies decline, the Company’s operating performance could be adversely impacted. The Company believes that its fiscal discipline, strategic focus on targeted vertical markets and diversification of service offerings provides some insulation from adverse trends. However, declines in the economy could result in the need for future cost reductions or changes in strategy.

Additionally, changes in government regulations could result in prohibition or restriction of certain types of employment services or the imposition of new or additional employee benefits, licensing or tax requirements with respect to the provision of employment services that may reduce RCM’s future earnings. There can be no assurance that RCM will be able to increase the fees charged to its clients in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount to cover increased costs as a result of any of the foregoing.
The employment services market is highly competitive with limited barriers to entry. RCM competes in global, national, regional
and local markets with numerous consulting, engineering and employment companies. Price competition in the industries the Company serves is significant, and pricing pressures from competitors and customers are increasing. RCM expects that the level of competition will remain high in the future, which could limit RCM’s ability to maintain or increase its market share or profitability.

The above summary is not a presentation of results of operations under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to results of operations as an indication of the Company’s performance.

The Company follows a 52/53 week fiscal reporting calendar ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. A 53-week year occurs periodically. The year to date reporting periods ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007 consisted of twenty-six weeks each.

Revenues. Revenues decreased 6.5%, or $7.2 million, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the same period in the prior year (the “comparable prior year period”). Revenues decreased $1.9 million in the Information Technology (“IT”) segment, decreased $9.1 million in the Engineering segment, and increased $3.8 million in the Commercial segment. Management attributes the overall decrease to a weakening of the general economy and the loss of an engineering client, which generated revenue of $10.8 million in the 2007 period as compared to $-0- in the 2008 period. Management expects revenues for the remainder of fiscal 2008 to remain generally consistent on a prorated basis with the revenues for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008. Revenues that were attributable to acquisitions which occurred in the IT segment since June 30, 2007 and were not included in the comparable prior year period were approximately $8.6 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 28, 2008 Compared to Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 30, 2007 - (Continued)

Cost of Services. Cost of services decreased 9.8%, or $8.3 million, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in revenues. Cost of services as a percentage of revenues decreased to 73.6% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 from 76.3% for the comparable prior year period. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased revenues in the Engineering segment, which had lower gross margins. Management anticipates the ratio gross margins for the remainder of fiscal 2008 to remain comparable to those in the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative (“SGA”) expenses increased 9.2%, or $1.9 million, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. As a percentage of revenues, SGA expenses were 21.7% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to 18.6% for the comparable prior year period. This percentage increase was primarily attributable to the SGA expenses incurred in connection with two acquisitions subsequent to February 28, 2008. Management expects SGA expenses for the remainder of fiscal 2008 to remain generally consistent with the SGA expenses, adjusted for seventeen weeks of additional SGA expenses from the aforementioned acquisitions, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008.

Bad Debt - Note Receivable. On February 26, 2008, the Company accepted a promissory note from a customer for $7.5 million per agreement which includes interest in payment of a like amount of accounts receivable from that customer. Of that amount, the note provides that $3.1 million is payable within 12 months and the remaining $4.4 million is payable in 36 monthly installments of $152,000, including principal and interest at 6% per annum through July 2011. The customer paid $1.2 million through April 30, 2008. The note receivable is collateralized by a second position on all of the customer’s accounts receivable as well as the personal guarantees of all its officers. On April 30, 2008, management of the Company concluded that the customer was going to default on its May 1, 2008 installment payment and the Company at that time determined that this note receivable will not likely be collectible. Therefore, the Company recorded a $6.1 million reserve to this doubtful account for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased 27.9%, or $.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was principally attributable to amortization of intangibles incurred from two acquisitions in the 2008 period.
 

Other Income (Expense). Other (expense) income consists of interest expense, net of interest income and gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and, in 2007, the proceeds from a legal settlement. For the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008, actual interest expense of $105,000 was offset by $64,000 of interest income, which was earned from short-term money market deposits. Interest expense, net increased $42,000 for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily due to increased borrowing levels associated with the funding of two acquisitions in the 2008 period. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions increased $16,000 in the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was attributable to the unfavorable exchange rates realized during the 2008 period. The proceeds from the legal settlement in 2007 were realized when the Company reached a settlement with one of the law firm defendants resulting in the recovery of $800,000 (see footnote 15 to the consolidated financial statements).
 

Income Tax. Income tax expense decreased 144.1%, or $3.3 million, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This decrease was principally attributable to a decrease in income before taxes, which included a $6.1 million bad debt expense on a note receivable for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as well as an increase in tax deductible goodwill amortization of approximately $213,000. The effective tax rate was a credit of 45.0% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to 40.0% in the comparable prior year period. Without the bad debt expense, the effective tax rate would have been 36.4%.

Segment Discussion (See Footnote 14)

Information Technology
 

IT revenues of $50.4 million in 2008 decreased $1.9 million, or 3.6%, compared to 2007. The decrease in revenue was attributable to the weakness in the economy and demand for the Company’s IT services. The IT segment EBITDA was $1.5 million, or 30.7% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $3.3 million, or 59.3% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Engineering

Engineering revenues of $28.1 million in 2008 decreased $9.1 million, or 24.4%, compared to 2007. The decrease in revenue was attributable to a weakening of the general economy and the loss of an Engineering client that generated revenue of $10.8 million in the 2007 period. The Engineering segment EBITDA was $1.5 million, or 30.6% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $1.5 million, or 27.2% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Commercial

Commercial revenues of $25.6 million in 2008 increased $3.8 million, or 17.2%, compared to 2007. The increase in revenues was principally attributable to increased demand for the Company’s Healthcare staffing services. The Commercial segment EBITDA was $1.9 million, or 38.7% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $760,000, or 13.5% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Thirteen Weeks Ended June 28, 2008 Compared to Thirteen Weeks Ended June 30, 2007 - (Continued)

Cost of Services. Cost of services decreased 7.1%, or $3.0 million, for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in revenues. Cost of services as a percentage of revenues decreased to 72.5% for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 from 75.4% for the comparable prior year period. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased revenues in the Engineering segment, which had lower gross margins. Management anticipates the ratio of cost of sales to revenues for the remainder of fiscal 2008 to remain comparable to the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative. SGA expenses increased 14.2%, or $1.5 million, for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. As a percentage of revenues, SGA expenses were 22.1% for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to 18.7% for the comparable prior year period. This percentage increase was primarily attributable to the SGA expenses incurred in connection with two acquisitions subsequent to February 28, 2008. Management expects SGA expenses for the remainder of fiscal 2008 to remain generally consistent with the SGA expenses, adjusted for thirteen weeks of additional SGA expenses from the aforementioned acquisition, for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $0.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was principally attributable to amortization of intangibles incurred from two acquisitions in the 2008 period.

Other Income (Expense). Other (expense) income consists of interest expense, net of interest income and gains and losses on foreign currency transactions. For the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008, actual interest expense of $91,000 was offset by $24,000 of interest income, which was earned from short-term money market deposits. Interest expense, net increased $75,000 for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily due to increased borrowing levels associated with the funding of two acquisitions in the 2008 period. Loss on foreign currency transactions increased $19,000 in the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was attributable to the unfavorable exchange rates realized during the 2008 period.
 

Income Tax. Income tax expense decreased 17.4%, or $0.2 million, for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to the comparable prior year period. This decrease was principally attributable to a decrease in income before taxes, which included an increase in goodwill amortization of approximately $165,000. The effective tax rate was a credit of 39.3% for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to 37.9% in the comparable prior year period.

Segment Discussion (See Footnote 14)

Information Technology
 

IT revenues of $28.0 million in 2008 increased $0.8 million, or 2.8%, compared to 2007. The increase in revenue was attributable to two acquisitions in the IT segment in the 2008 period offset by the continued weakening of the general economy. The IT segment EBITDA was $1.0 million, or 33.7% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $1.8 million, or 55.0% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Engineering

Engineering revenues of $14.1 million in 2008 decreased $4.2 million, or 22.9%, compared to 2007. The decrease in revenue was attributable to a weakening of the general economy and the loss of an engineering client that generated revenue of $5.1 million in the 2007 period. The Engineering segment EBITDA was $910,000, or 30.2% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $857,000, or 25.7% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Commercial

Commercial revenues of $12.9 million in 2008 increased $1.6 million, or 13.9%, compared to 2007. The increase in revenues was principally attributable to increased revenues in the Company’s Healthcare business unit. The Commercial segment EBITDA was $1.1 million, or 36.1% of the overall EBITDA for 2008, as compared to $642,000, or 19.3% of the overall EBITDA for 2007.

Operating Activities

Operating activities used $8.7 million of cash for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to $3.9 million provided by operating activities for the comparable 2007 period. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable, an increase in deferred tax assets, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued compensation, provision for doubtful accounts, and income taxes payable. These changes were offset by an increase in payroll and withheld taxes.

Investing Activities

Investing activities used $8.7 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 as compared to $367,000 for the comparable prior year period. The increase in the use of cash for investing activities for 2008 as compared to the comparable 2007 period was primarily attributable to increases in expenditures for property and equipment and in cash used for acquisitions.

Financing Activities

In 2008, financing activities principally consisted of the proceeds from borrowing from the line of credit to finance the acquisition of NuSoft Solutions, Inc and MBH Solutions, Inc. (See footnote 5 to the financial statements). In 2007, financing activities principally consisted of the exercise of stock options with an aggregate exercise price of $554,000.

The Company and its subsidiaries are party to a loan agreement with Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, administrative agent for a syndicate of banks, which provides for a $25 million revolving credit facility and includes a sub-limit of $5.0 million for letters of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at one of two alternative rates, as selected by the Company at each incremental borrowing. These alternatives are: (i) LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), plus applicable margin, or (ii) the agent bank's prime rate.

All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and a pledge of the stock of its subsidiaries. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains various financial and non-financial covenants, such as restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends.

Financing Activities - (Continued)

The Revolving Credit Facility expires in August 2011. The weighted average interest rates, which include unused line fees, under the Revolving Credit Facility for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007 were 4.1% and 35.4%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for the 2007 period was disproportionately high in relation to the interest expense incurred because of the inclusion of unused line fees of $7,600. During the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007, the Company’s outstanding borrowings ranged from $-0- to $10.5 million and $-0- million to $1.5 million, respectively. At June 28, 2008 and December 29, 2007, there were $10.0 million and $-0- outstanding borrowings under this facility, respectively. At June 28, 2008, there were letters of credit outstanding for $1.6 million. At June 28, 2008, the Company had availability for additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility of $13.4 million.

The Company anticipates that its primary uses of capital in future periods will be for working capital purposes. Funding for any long-term and short-term capital requirements as well as future acquisitions will be derived from one or more of the Revolving Credit Facility, funds generated through operations or future financing transactions. The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, which may or may not be covered by insurance. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our financial position, liquidity and the results of operations for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

The Company's business strategy is to achieve growth both internally through operations and externally through strategic acquisitions. The Company from time to time engages in discussions with potential acquisition candidates. As the size of the Company and its financial resources increase, however, acquisition opportunities requiring significant commitments of capital may arise. In order to pursue such opportunities, the Company may be required to incur debt or issue potentially dilutive securities in the future. No assurance can be given as to the Company’s future acquisition and expansion opportunities or how such opportunities will be financed.

The Company does not currently have material commitments for capital expenditures and does not currently anticipate entering into any such commitments during the next 12 months. The Company's current commitments consist primarily of lease obligations for office space and potential deferred consideration payments (see note 5 to the financial statements). The Company believes that its capital resources are sufficient to meet its present obligations and those to be incurred in the normal course of business for the next 12 months.

At June 28, 2008, the Company had a deferred tax asset totaling $2.4 million, primarily representing the tax effect of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company expects to utilize the deferred tax asset during the 12 months ending June 27, 2009 by offsetting the related tax benefits of the asset against tax liabilities incurred from forecasted taxable income.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s investment portfolio and debt instruments, which primarily consist of its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments in its portfolio. The Company places its investments in instruments that meet high credit quality standards. The Company is adverse to principal loss and ensures the safety and preservation of its invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. As of June 28, 2008, the Company’s investments consisted of cash and money market funds. The Company does not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate changes. Presently the impact of a 10% (approximately 90 basis points) increase in interest rates on its variable debt (using an incremental borrowing rate) would have a relatively nominal impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company does not expect any material loss with respect to its investment portfolio.

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance 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 the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
 
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
