LEARNING TREE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(tables in thousands, except per share data)
Unaudited
NOTE 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Learning Tree International, Inc. and our subsidiaries have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and, therefore, omit or condense certain note disclosures and other information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We use the 52/53-week fiscal year method to better align our external financial reporting with the way we operate our business. Under this method, each fiscal quarter ends on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter. Accordingly, the second quarter of the current fiscal year ended on March 30, 2012, while the second quarter of our prior fiscal year ended on April 1, 2011.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, that are only of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 30, 2012, and our results of operations for the three months and six months ended March 30, 2012 and April 1, 2011, and our cash flows for the six months ended March 30, 2012 and April 1, 2011.
NOTE 2STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation expense of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million related to grants of employee stock options and restricted stock units was included in operating expenses during the three months and six months ended March 30, 2012, and was charged in a manner consistent with the related employee salary costs. This compares to stock-based compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for grants of employee stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units for the three months and six months ended April 1, 2011.
NOTE 3ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
The following table presents the activity for the asset retirement obligations (ARO) liabilities, which are primarily related to the restoration of classroom facilities in our Learning Tree Education Centers:

NOTE 4EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (which excludes unvested shares of our common stock granted under our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan) during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include common stock equivalents, to the extent their effect is dilutive. Approximately 282,000 stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computations of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended March 30, 2012, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Approximately 264,000 stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computations of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended April 1, 2011 and 227,000 stock options and restricted stock units for the six months ended April 1, 2011, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The computations for basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

NOTE 5INCOME TAXES
The income tax benefit for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 reflects a 66.1% effective tax rate. Our effective tax rate for the fiscal year 2012 full year is estimated at 37.2% taking into consideration all permanent differences. The high effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 is primarily due to the increase in the income tax benefit as a result of the release of uncertain tax positions in the year-to-date period and the relative amount of the increase in the benefit on the year-to-date loss. The income tax provision for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 reflected a 28.3% effective tax rate.
NOTE 6COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies
Currently, and from time to time, we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. We are not a party to any lawsuit or proceeding that, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 7SEGMENT REPORTING
Our worldwide operations involve the design and delivery of instructor-led classroom training courses and related services to multinational companies and government entities. The training and education we offer is presented in an identical manner in every country in which we operate. Our instructors present our courses in a virtually identical fashion worldwide, regardless of whether presented in leased classroom space or external facilities, the content of the class being taught or the location or method of distribution. We did not have sales to any single customer that amounted to 10% or more of our revenues in the first six months of fiscal year 2012 and the first six months of fiscal year 2011.
7
We conduct and manage our business globally and have reportable segments that operate in six countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Sweden and Japan.
Summarized financial information by country for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

NOTE 9STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
During the three months and six months ended March 30, 2012 we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. During the three months and six months ended April 1, 2011 we repurchased 47,058 shares of our common stock at a total cost of approximately $0.4 million.
NOTE 10FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, (ASC 820) in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
Fair value is defined as 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 the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value is measured on assumptions that market participants would use, including assumptions about non performance risk and credit risk.
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs and prioritizes them based on the extent to which the inputs are observable in the marketplace. Categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the measurement. These levels are:
Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and market corroborated inputs.
Level 3Unobservable inputs that reflect managements assumptions about the estimates and risks that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Level 3 Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
There are no level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011.
The following sections describe the valuation methodologies we use to measure different financial assets at fair value:
| Commercial PaperBecause of the readily available markets for these instruments, we use quoted prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets provided by our investment broker/advisor to establish fair values. |
| Corporate SecuritiesBecause of the readily available markets for these instruments, we use quoted prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets provided by our investment broker/advisor, as well as our independent research, to establish fair values. |
Non Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We measure our asset retirement obligations at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, when we believe there has been an indication the fair value has changed. We did not adjust the values of those liabilities during the three months and six months ended March 30, 2012.

NOTE 12RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance updating the June 2011 guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. The object of this update was to defer only those changes in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and interim periods within that fiscal year. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income. The new standard requires the presentation of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new standard also requires presentation of adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The updated guidance is effective on a retrospective basis for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB issued additional guidance on fair value measurements that clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective on a prospective basis for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including the Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not, or management believes will not, have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 13SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
We have evaluated all events subsequent to the balance sheet date of March 30, 2012 through the date the financial statements were filed, and have determined that there are no subsequent events that require disclosure.

Item 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. |
The following discussion and analysis is provided to increase the understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 (our 2011 10-K). We use the terms we, our, and us to refer to Learning Tree International, Inc. and our subsidiaries.
DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as approximates, believes, expects, anticipates, estimates, intends, plans, would, may, or other similar expressions in this report. Our forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance and include, but are not limited to, statements concerning our business strategy, future commercial revenues, future operating expenses, future gross profits, earnings or losses, market growth, capital requirements, new product introductions, expansion plans and the adequacy of our funding. Other statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are also forward-looking statements.
We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or that we may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on our beliefs, assumptions made by us, and information currently available to us. Such statements are based on assumptions, and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control and ability to predict. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are not guarantees of future performance, and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, our actual future results can be expected to differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based on assumptions and known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include those related to the following: risks associated with the timely development, introduction, and customer acceptance of our courses; efficient delivery and scheduling of our courses; technology development and new technology introduction; competition; international operations, including currency fluctuations; attracting and retaining qualified personnel; intellectual property, including having to defend potential infringement claims; changing economic and market conditions; and adverse weather conditions, strikes, acts of war or terrorism and other external events. Please refer to the risk factors under Item 1A. Risk Factors beginning on page 12 and elsewhere in our 2011 10-K, as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The risks included in our filings are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We do not undertake and specifically disclaim any obligation to update such forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements, except as otherwise required by law.

OVERVIEW
We are a leading worldwide vendor-independent provider to business and government organizations for the training and education of information technology (IT) professionals and managers. Since our founding in 1974, we have provided high-quality training to over 2 million managers and IT professionals.
We develop our own proprietary courses to be highly interactive, and incorporate extensive hands-on exercises or case study workshops. Our vendor-independent IT courses provide participants an unbiased perspective regarding software and hardware products and the ability to compare and integrate multiple platforms and technologies from various vendors. Our management courses, while addressing core concepts and theories, focus heavily on providing skills, tools and technologies that participants can apply immediately upon returning to their jobs. Based on their sophistication and quality, all our courses are recommended for one to two semester hours of college credit by the American Council on Education. We are also a trusted continuing professional education (CPE) provider of the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium (ISC) 2. In addition, we are on the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy National Registry of CPE sponsors and are a Registered Education Provider of the Project Management Institute.
After assessing market need, most of our courses are translated into French, Swedish and Japanese. We offer our proprietary courses through local operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Canada, Sweden and Japan, and typically generate over half of our revenues internationally.
After several years of extensive testing of several hybrid-learning formats and training program structures, in fiscal year 2009, we introduced Learning Tree AnyWare, our proprietary web-based platform that integrates participants in remote locations into live class events in another location. Attendees, at home or in their offices, can use an ordinary Internet connection to participate in live Learning Tree courses being held in our education centers. AnyWare class participants see and hear their instructor and classmates in real time, and view the instructors annotations on the two in-class MagnaLearn projection screens in real-time. They are able to participate in discussions, ask questions, work in breakout sessions, and complete the same hands-on exercises as their in-class counterparts, all under the guidance of a live, expert instructor. They gain the full benefit of our proprietary courseware, and achieve the same level of knowledge and skill transfer as in-class participants. Customers report that AnyWare is highly different from other forms of e-Learning and significantly more effective in promoting job-related learning.
Our instructors are not full-time employees; rather, they are practicing professionals who apply the same IT and management skills they teach in our classrooms as independent consultants or full-time employees elsewhere when they are not teaching. On average, each expert instructor teaches about 10 courses per year on an as needed basis. This ensures that our instructors stay at the forefront of their respective disciplines, and also enables us to structure our business so the majority of course delivery costs are variable. In addition to the delivery of our courses in our state-of-the-art education centers, our infrastructure and logistical capabilities allow us to coordinate, plan and deliver our courses at hotels, conference facilities and customer sites worldwide.
We continue our tradition of excellence by always seeking to improve our core strengths: expert instructors, proprietary content library, state-of-the-art classrooms and worldwide course delivery systems. We believe that quality and customer satisfaction remain the underlying driving forces for our long-term success.

THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 30, 2012 COMPARED WITH THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED APRIL 1, 2011
Revenues. Our revenues of $28.9 million in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 were 4.8% lower than revenues of $30.4 million in the same quarter of fiscal year 2011. The decrease in revenues primarily resulted from a 6.7% reduction in average revenue per participant that was partially offset by a 1.3% increase in the number of course participants. The decrease in average revenue per participant compared to the same quarter of our prior year was the cumulative result of several smaller factors including: a 1.4% adverse effect of changes in foreign exchange rates; an experimental program of promotional pricing for new customers in one of our operating units; a shift in mix between higher priced courses at our education centers and courses delivered onsite at client locations; shorter duration for courses delivered at client sites; and a reduction in average price across most product lines.
During our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we trained 17,696 course participants, a 1.3% increase from the 17,471 course participants we trained in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011.
During our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we provided 60,663 attendee-days of training, compared to 61,591 attendee-days in the same quarter in fiscal year 2011. In our IT courses during our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we provided 35,349 attendee-days of training, a 0.9% increase from the 35,049 attendee-days in the corresponding period in fiscal year 2011. In our management courses during our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we provided 25,314 attendee-days of training, a 4.6% decrease from the 26,542 attendee-days in the corresponding period in fiscal year 2011.
Our revenues of $63.9 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2012 were 3.2% lower than revenues of $66.0 million in the same period of fiscal year 2011. The decrease in average revenue per participant compared to the same quarter of our prior year was the cumulative result of several smaller factors including: a 0.7% adverse effect of changes in foreign exchange rates; an experimental program of promotional pricing for new customers in one of our operating units; a shift in mix between higher priced courses at our education centers and courses delivered onsite at client locations; shorter duration for courses delivered at client sites; and a reduction in average price across most product lines.
During the first six months of fiscal year 2012, we trained 37,637 course participants, a 1.8% increase from the 36,974 course participants we trained in the first six months of fiscal year 2011.
During the first six months of fiscal year 2012, we provided 130,416 attendee-days of training, compared to 131,329 attendee-days in the same period in fiscal year 2011. In our IT courses during our first six months of fiscal year 2012, we provided 76,195 attendee-days of training, a 1.4% decrease from the 77,289 attendee-days in the corresponding period in fiscal year 2011. In our management courses during our first six months of fiscal year 2012, we provided 54,221 attendee-days of training, a 0.3% increase from the 54,040 attendee-days in the corresponding period in fiscal year 2011.
Cost of Revenues. Our cost of revenues primarily includes the costs of course instructors and their travel expenses, course materials, classroom facilities, equipment, freight and refreshments.
During our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we presented 1,454 events, a 1.9% increase from 1,427 events during the same period in fiscal year 2011. Our cost of revenues for our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $14.6 million, or 50.3% of revenues, compared to $14.8 million, or 48.7% of revenues, in the same period in fiscal year 2011. Accordingly, our gross profit percentage for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was 49.7% compared to 51.3% in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
The change in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 primarily reflects a reduction of 6.7% in revenue per participant while cost per participant decreased
15
proportionately less at 3.6%. Changes in foreign exchange rates do not materially affect our gross profit percentage, since exchange rate changes affect our cost of revenues by approximately the same percentage as they affect our revenues.
During the first six months of fiscal year 2012, we presented 3,174 events, a 5.9% increase from 2,998 events during the same period in fiscal year 2011. Our cost of revenues for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $30.2 million, or 47.2% of revenues, compared to $30.6 million, or 46.4% of revenues, in the same period in fiscal year 2011. Accordingly, our gross profit percentage for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was 52.8% compared to 53.6% in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
The change in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues during the first six months of fiscal year 2012 primarily reflects a reduction of 5.3% in revenue per participant while cost per participant decreased proportionately less at 3.3%.
Course Development Expenses. Costs incurred to develop new courses and update our existing courses are expensed when incurred and are included in course development expenses. These costs are principally for internal product development staff and for subject matter experts.
During our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 course development expenses were 7.1% of revenues, compared to 6.1% in the same quarter of fiscal year 2011. Overall spending on course development in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $2.0 million, a 12.4% increase from the $1.8 million spent on course development in our second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The increase in expense reflects an increase in activities associated with new course development and existing course revisions compared to the same quarter of the prior year.
Course development expense during the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $4.2 million, an increase of $0.4 million compared to $3.8 million in the same period of fiscal year 2011. The increase in expense reflects an increase in activities associated with new course development and existing course revisions compared to the same quarter of the prior year.
In our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we introduced five new IT course titles and two new management course titles and retired two management course titles and five IT course titles. At the end of our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, our library of instructor-led courses numbered 215 titles compared with 216 titles at the end of the same quarter of fiscal year 2011. At the end of our second quarter of this fiscal year, we had 132 IT titles in our course library, compared with 137 titles at the end of the same quarter of fiscal year 2011. Our library of management titles numbered 83 at the end of our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, compared to 79 at the end of the same quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses include the costs of designing, producing and distributing direct mail and media advertisements; distributing marketing e-mails; maintaining and further developing our website; compensation and travel for sales and marketing personnel; and information systems to support these activities.
Sales and marketing expense in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was 28.9% of revenues, compared to 26.5% in the same quarter of fiscal year 2011. Sales and marketing expense was $8.4 million in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, compared to $8.1 million during our second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The net increase of $0.3 million resulted from increases of $0.6 million in sales force and direct marketing expenditures partially offset by a reduction in certain severance expenses of $0.3 million taken in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Sales and marketing expense during the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $15.9 million, an increase of $0.2 million compared to $15.7 million in the same period of fiscal year 2011. The net increase was due primarily to increases in the sales and marketing force and direct marketing expenditures of $0.9 million which was partially offset by reductions in severance expense of $0.4 million and catalog production of $0.3 million.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expense in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was 25.8% of revenues, compared with 24.0% for the same quarter in fiscal year 2011. General and
16
administrative expense during our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $7.5 million, an increase of $0.2 million compared to $7.3 million in our second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The net increase was due primarily to increases in severance expense of $0.7 million and professional service fees of $0.1 million which were largely offset by reductions in incentive related compensation of $0.4 million and facilities expense of $0.2 million.
General and administrative expense during the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $14.3 million, a decrease of $0.2 million compared to $14.5 million in the same period of fiscal year 2011. The net decrease was due primarily to reductions in incentive related compensation of $0.6 million and $0.1 million for reductions in charges to increase our sublease loss reserve associated with subleases at our London education center; offset by increases in severance of $0.5 million.
Other Income (Expense), Net. Other income (expense), net consists primarily of interest income and foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
During our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, other expense increased $0.2 million primarily due to unrealized losses in our U.S. Dollar denominated accounts in our foreign subsidiaries.
During our first six months of fiscal year 2012 other expense, net totaled $0.1 million compared to less than $0.1 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2011. This difference was primarily due to unrealized losses in our U.S. Dollar denominated accounts in our foreign subsidiaries.
Income Taxes. Our income tax provision in our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was a benefit of $1.6 million compared to a benefit of $0.6 million in our second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The income tax benefit for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 reflects a 66.1% effective tax rate. Our effective tax rate for the fiscal year 2012 full year is estimated at 37.2% taking into consideration all permanent differences. The high effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 is primarily due to the increase in the income tax benefit as a result of the release of uncertain tax positions in the year-to-date period and the relative amount of the increase in the benefit on the year-to-date loss. The income tax provision for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 reflected a 28.3% effective tax rate.
Net (Loss) Income. Our net loss for our second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $2.1 million compared to net loss of $1.0 million for our second quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Our net loss for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $0.3 million compared to net income of $1.0 million for our first six months of fiscal year 2011.
Effects of Foreign Exchange Rates. Although our consolidated financial statements are stated in U.S. dollars, all of our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Gains and losses arising from the translation of the balance sheets of our subsidiaries from the functional currencies to U.S. dollars are reported as adjustments to stockholders equity. Fluctuations in exchange rates may also have an effect on our results of operations. Since both revenues and expenses are generally denominated in our subsidiaries local currency, changes in exchange rates that have an adverse effect on our foreign revenues are partially offset by a favorable effect on our foreign expenses. The impact of future exchange rates on our results of operations cannot be accurately predicted. To date, we have not sought to hedge the risks associated with fluctuations in exchange rates, and therefore we continue to be subject to such risks. Even if we undertake such hedging transactions in the future, there can be no assurance that any hedging techniques we implement would be successful in eliminating or reducing the effects of currency fluctuations. See Item 1A Risk Factors in our 2011 10-K.
FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY RESULTS
Our quarterly results are affected by many factors, including the number of weeks during which courses can be conducted in a quarter, the nature and extent of our marketing, the timing of the introduction of new courses,
17
competitive forces within the markets we serve, the mix of our course events between IT and management and customer site or education center venues, and currency fluctuations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary sources of liquidity at March 30, 2012 include cash and cash equivalents on hand of $32.4 million. During the first six months of fiscal year 2012, our total cash and cash equivalents decreased by $7.9 million, primarily as a result of net purchases of available for sale securities of $10.6 million and capital expenditures of $1.1 million; offset by cash provided by operations of $3.5 million.
At March 30, 2012 our net working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) was $16.9 million, a $1.1 million increase from our working capital balance at September 30, 2011. Current assets decreased $0.9 million due primarily to a decrease in accounts receivable offset by increases in available for sale securities and prepaid expenses. Current liabilities decreased $2.0 million primarily due to a decrease in deferred revenues.
Cash Flows. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased $7.9 million to $32.4 million at March 30, 2012 from $40.3 million at September 30, 2011 (table in thousands).

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $2.1 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2012 primarily due to net losses, decreases in deferred revenues and increases in prepaid expenses and other assets, offset by decreases in accounts receivable. Cash used in investing activities increased by $3.1 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2012, due primarily to an increase in net purchases of available for sale securities of $6.0 million offset by a decrease in the purchases of equipment and other capital assets of $2.9 million.
Repurchase of our Common Stock. On May 8, 2012, we announced that our Board of Directors amended the Companys share repurchase program to authorize the repurchase of up to $35,000,000 in the aggregate of the Companys common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (Common Stock). The increase of $4,500,000 authorized for repurchase under the program equates to approximately 5.9% of the Companys issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock based upon the $5.60 closing price of the Common Stock on May 7, 2012. Following the amendment to the program, there was $4,571,585 available for share repurchase under the program. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may acquire shares of its common stock in the open market or in any private transaction, from time-to-time and in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
Liquidity. We have no outstanding debt or line of credit agreements. We anticipate we will continue to rely primarily on our balance of cash and cash equivalents on hand, available for sale securities and cash flows from operations to finance our operating cash needs. We believe that such funds will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
Capital Requirements. During the six months ended March 30, 2012, we made capital expenditures of $1.1 million for the purchase of furniture and computer equipment worldwide. We plan to purchase an additional $6.9 million in equipment and other capital assets during the remainder of fiscal year 2012. This includes approximately $5.0 million to upgrade the computer equipment used in our classrooms. The upgrade became the preferred option after our significant testing showed that cloud-based solutions currently do not produce the level of quality in the classroom that
18
our customers have come to expect. Our contractual obligations as of March 30, 2012 are consistent in material respects with our fiscal year-end disclosure in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsLiquidity and Capital ResourcesCapital Requirements of our 2011 10-K.
We have a number of operating leases for our administrative offices and education center classroom facilities located worldwide. These leases expire at various dates over the next 9 years. In addition to requiring monthly payments for rent, some of the leases contain asset retirement provisions whereby we are required to return the leased facility back to a specified condition at the expiration of the lease.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
Managements discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements is based on the selection of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes. We believe some of the more critical estimates and policies that affect our financial condition and results of operations are in the areas of revenue recognition, operating leases, asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and income taxes. For more information regarding our critical accounting estimates and policies, see Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting Estimates and Policies of our 2011 10-K. We have discussed the application of these critical accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
During the last two months of our second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we began taking initial steps intended to identify and test opportunities to produce revenue growth.
We expect for the next several quarters:
| To make significant investments in direct marketing and sales force productivity in order to attempt to achieve growth in the number of our attendees. |
| To focus our course development efforts on the greatest needs of our customers. |
| To adjust our course scheduling to better match demand. |
| To invest in our infrastructure and course equipment to enhance the already high level of course quality we provide to our attendees. |
We have already begun to increase our expenditures on direct marketing in order to increase the penetration of the thousands of clients we already serve, and to gain business from new clients through a combination of direct mail and electronic marketing. We also intend to invest in systems, personnel and training to increase the productivity of our sales force.
In focusing on our course development process, we intend to develop those courses most in demand by our customers rather than to develop a fixed number of courses per quarter or per year.
Due to the lead times in our business, we would only expect to begin to see positive impacts on revenue growth after several more quarters.
We believe that we have enjoyed the benefits of long-term customer loyalty as a direct result of the extraordinarily high levels of customer satisfaction with every aspect of our service: from the interactions with our sales and customer service staff before a course, to the training itself, to our post-course follow-up. We intend to further enhance the quality of our customer services by investing in new hands-on equipment for use in our courses and by making further improvements to our course development, maintenance and support processes.
Because we expect that any revenue growth from these changes may take time to appear, we anticipate that these investments will result in operating losses for the Company for several quarters.
19
Effect of Exchange Rates. Over half of our business annually is conducted in currencies other than U.S. dollars and fluctuations in exchange rates will affect future revenues and expenses when translated into U.S. dollars. If the exchange rates of April 27, 2012 remain constant for the remainder of our third quarter we would expect changes in foreign exchange rates to reduce revenues by about 1% in our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 compared to our same quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Third Quarter Revenues. We currently expect revenues for our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 of between $31.0 million and $33.0 million, compared to revenues of $33.5 million in our third quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Third Quarter Gross Profit. We expect a gross profit percentage in our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 of between 49.5% and 51.0% compared to 52.4% in our third quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Third Quarter Operating Expenses. We expect overall operating expenses for our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 to be between $19.3 million and $19.8 million, compared to $16.6 million in the same quarter a year earlier.
Third Quarter Loss from Operations. As a result of the above factors, we expect to incur a third quarter operating loss of between $2.4 million and $4.4 million compared with operating income of $1.0 million in our third quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Third Quarter Interest Income. We expect third quarter interest income to be less than $0.1 million.
Third Quarter Pre-Tax Loss. Overall, we expect to report a pre-tax loss for our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 of between $2.4 million and $4.4 million, compared with pre-tax income of $1.0 million in our third quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Effective Tax Rate. We estimate that our effective tax rate in our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 will be approximately 36.7%.
Capital Expenditures. We plan to purchase an additional $6.9 million in equipment and other capital assets during the remainder of fiscal year 2012. This includes approximately $5.0 million to upgrade the computer equipment used in our classrooms. The upgrade became the preferred option after our significant testing showed that cloud-based solutions currently do not produce the level of quality in the classroom that our customers have come to expect.
Item 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. |
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, which risks are described in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As of the date of this report, there have been no material changes to the market risks described in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additionally, we do not anticipate any near-term changes in the nature of our market risk exposures or in managements objectives and strategies with respect to managing such exposures.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share | NOTE 4—EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (which excludes unvested shares of our common stock granted under our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan) during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include common stock equivalents, to the extent their effect is dilutive. Approximately 282,000 stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computations of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended March 30, 2012, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Approximately 264,000 stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computations of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended April 1, 2011 and 227,000 stock options and restricted stock units for the six months ended April 1, 2011, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The computations for basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:
