Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of ATS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the executive offices of the Issuer is 7925 Jones Branch Drive, McLean, Virginia 22102.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

(a-f) This Schedule 13D is being filed by Osmium Special Situations Fund Ltd (the “Fund”), Osmium Capital Management Ltd (“Osmium”), and Chris Kuchanny (“Mr. Kuchanny” and together with Osmium and the Fund, the “Reporting Persons”).

Mr. Kuchanny, a citizen of the United Kingdom, has a business address of Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton, HM 11, Bermuda. His principal occupation is chairman and chief investment officer of Osmium.

Osmium is a Bermuda exempted limited liability company which has its principal office at Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton, HM 11, Bermuda. The principal business of Osmium is to serve as investment manager to the Fund and to control the investing and trading in securities of the Fund. The principal business of the Fund is to invest and trade in securities.

During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been: (i) convicted in any criminal proceeding, or (ii) a party to any civil proceeding commenced before a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is now subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The source of the funds used by the Fund to make all purchases of shares of Common Stock was the working capital of the Fund.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On February 3, 2010, the Fund sent certain written materials (“Nomination Materials”) to the Issuer, which materials comprised a letter and certain other documents necessary, pursuant to the Issuer’s by-laws, to nominate individuals for election to the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”). In the Nomination Materials, the Fund formally nominated three individuals (the “Nominees”) for the Board to consider, and requested that the Board select two of these individuals for election to the Board.

The Reporting Persons believe that the Nominees’ respective backgrounds of executive-level public and private sector experience would be beneficial to the Board and relevant to both the tactical and strategic initiatives that the Issuer presently faces. The Nominees are independent of the Reporting Persons and intend to work collaboratively with the Board.

The Reporting Persons believe that the Issuer’s present market capitalization does not accurately reflect the underlying value of the Issuer’s U.S. federal service business, industry-leading margins and prospective contract opportunities. The Reporting Persons intend to work with the Board, management, shareholders and others to maximize value for all stakeholders.

Osmium effected the acquisition of the shares of Common Stock on behalf of the Fund for investment purposes, may effect purchases or sales of the Issuer’s stock at its discretion, and presently intends to contact members of the Issuer’s Board or management from time to time to discuss shareholder matters. Osmium may take such actions from time to time as it deems necessary or appropriate to maximize the value of the Fund’s investment in the Issuer’s securities, including communication with other shareholders, industry participants and other interested parties concerning the Issuer. Osmium intends to review continuously the Fund’s investment in the Issuer and may in the future change its present course of action. Depending upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and general economic, financial market and industry conditions, Osmium may cause the sale of all or part of the shares of Common Stock held by the Fund, or

 

5


may cause the purchase of additional securities of the Issuer, in privately negotiated transactions, as part of a cash tender offer or exchange offer, or otherwise. Any such purchases or sales may be made at any time without prior notice. Depending upon the foregoing factors or other factors not listed herein, the Reporting Persons may formulate other purposes, plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer, the Common Stock or other equity securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a and b) As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Fund beneficially owns an aggregate of 4,106,103 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”). Osmium and the Fund share investment power and voting power with respect to the Shares. Mr. Kuchanny, who serves as the control person of Osmium, shares investment power and voting power with respect to the Shares reported by Osmium and the Fund. The holdings of the Fund represent 18.03% of Issuer’s total outstanding Common Stock.

(c) During the past sixty days, Osmium, on behalf of the Fund, effected the following purchases of shares of Common Stock in the open market:

(e) Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

By virtue of the relationship between the Reporting Persons, as described in Item 2, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a “group” under the Federal securities laws. Except as otherwise set forth in this Schedule 13D, Osmium and Mr. Kuchanny expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Fund and the filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission, for the purposes of Sections 13(d) and 13(g) or under any provision of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder or for any other purpose, that either of Osmium or Mr. Kuchanny is a beneficial owner of any such shares.
