DYNAMICS RESEARCH CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
 
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Dynamics Research Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulations S-X.  The year end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented have been reflected. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Although we believe our disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, the accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the year ended December 31, 2012.

NOTE 2.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 220. The update requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of this ASU for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 210. The update clarifies that the scope of ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. This ASU is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of this ASU for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

NOTE 4. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s goodwill totaled $163.2 million.  The Company’s annual goodwill impairment test is conducted at November 30 of each calendar year and interim evaluations are performed when the Company determines that a triggering event has occurred that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of its goodwill below its carrying value.  During the second quarter of 2013, no triggering events occurred.

During the second quarter of 2012, due to a decline in the market price of the Company’s stock, the market capitalization of the Company was below the carrying value of equity, which the Company considered a triggering event and therefore performed an interim step 1 impairment test.  As a result of the impairment test, the Company recorded a preliminary goodwill impairment charge of $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2012.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company wrote-off $0.6 million of fully amortized intangible assets related to the trade name acquired in the High Performance Technologies, Inc. acquisition.  The Company recorded amortization expense for its identifiable intangible assets of $0.9 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $1.9 million and $2.1 million for the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

At June 30, 2013, estimated future amortization expense for the identifiable intangible assets to be recorded in subsequent fiscal years was as follows:

Remainder of 2013
  $ 1,861  
2014
  $ 3,663  
2015
  $ 2,887  
2016
  $ 2,139  
2017
  $ 1,171  
2018 and thereafter
  $ 1,035  

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax provisions of $0.8 million and $1.7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively, and income tax benefits of $3.5 million and $2.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2012, respectively.  The effective income tax rate was 40.7% and 34.8% in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, the effective income tax rate for the first half of 2012 was 40.8%.

The Company is permitted to deduct certain intangible assets and goodwill balances over a period of 15 years from the date of the historic acquisitions, thereby reducing the Company’s taxable income as reported on the income tax return.  The Company estimates the annual cash savings from these deductions, as compared with tax expense to be provided for in the Company’s financial statements, from these deductions as follows:

   
Income Tax
Benefit
 
2013
  $ 4,700  
2014
    4,800  
2015
    5,100

    5,300  
2017
    5,600  
2018 and thereafter
    38,200  
    $ 63,700  

In the year in which these benefits are realized, the Company would recognize a reduction in a long term deferred tax asset. 

At June 30, 2013, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits.  During the second quarter of 2013, the Company reversed its uncertain tax position reserve.

Effective April 26, 2013, the Company amended its credit agreement to adjust the calculation of Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage ratio to exclude from the calculation of Consolidated Fixed Charges the impact of any make-whole or call payments related to any such payment of the subordinated debt.  At June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenants.

NOTE 7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s interest rate swap agreement had an initial notional amount of $40.0 million and is used to manage exposure to interest rate changes on the senior term loan.  The swap effectively converts a portion of the Company’s variable rate debt under the senior term loan to a fixed rate for a period of two years and without exchanging the notional principal amounts.

Under this agreement, the Company receives a floating rate based on the 90-day LIBOR rate and pays a fixed rate of 4.68% (including the applicable margin of 4.00%) on the outstanding notional amount. The swap fixed rate was structured to mirror the payment terms of the senior term loan for the period hedged.  The fair value of the swap at inception was zero.  It is not expected that any gains or losses will be reported in the statement of operations during the term of the agreement as the swap is expected to be highly effective through its maturity based on the matching terms of the swap and facility agreements.  The interest rate swap agreement matures on September 30, 2013.

If, at any time, the swap is determined to be ineffective, in whole or in part, due to changes in the interest rate swap or underlying debt agreements, the fair value of the portion of the swap determined to be ineffective will be recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of operations for the applicable period.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for these items, as well as the general classification of such items:

Investments Held in Rabbi Trusts — The investments include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds. Fair values for these investments were based on quoted prices in active markets and were therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swap — The derivative is a receive-variable, pay-fixed interest rate swap based on the LIBOR rate and is designated as a cash flow hedge. Fair value was based on a model-driven valuation using the LIBOR rate, which was observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the swap. Therefore, our interest rate swap was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

DYNAMICS RESEARCH CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
 
Changes to a financial asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy are determined as of the end of a reporting period.  There were no changes to these levels during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, contract receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.  The carrying value of the senior term loan approximates fair value because the interest rate is variable and therefore deemed to reflect a market rate of interest.  The carrying value of the subordinated debt approximates fair value based on information received from the counterparty; whom management believes is a knowledgeable market participant and has determined an appropriate measurement of fair value.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company estimates fair value for goodwill by employing three different methodologies to calculate a fair value and then weighting the outputs to arrive at an estimated fair value.

The Company also has a direct investment in a privately held company that is accounted for under the equity method, which is periodically assessed for other-than temporary impairment. If it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the Company would write down the investment to its fair value. The Company estimates fair value of our equity method investment considering available information such as, current cash positions, earnings and cash flow forecasts, recent operational performance and any other readily available market data. During the first half of 2013, there were no indications to warrant testing for other-than-temporary impairments on our equity method investment.

NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Unexercised stock options are excluded from this calculation but are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method so long as their effect is not anti-dilutive.  In the first quarter of 2013, the Company re-evaluated its accounting for the treatment of restricted stock awards in computing earnings per share. As a result the Company concluded that the shares are participating securities and accordingly have included them in the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding in the current period.  The effects on prior period presentation of earnings per share are immaterial.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, diluted earnings per share are determined by using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  Due to the anti-dilutive effect, approximately 135,200 and 132,200 options to purchase common stock and restricted stock awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  For the three and six months ended June 30 2012, the diluted effect of stock options and restricted stock grants of approximately 246,700 and 202,300 shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as the net loss would have made their effect anti-dilutive.

NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As a defense contractor, the Company is subject to many levels of audit and review from various government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, various inspectors general, the Defense Criminal Investigation Service, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice and Congressional committees. Both related to and unrelated to its defense industry involvement, the Company is, from time to time, involved in audits, lawsuits, claims, administrative proceedings and investigations. The Company accrues for liabilities associated with these activities when it becomes probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not presently believe it is reasonably likely that any of these matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s evaluation of the likelihood of expenditures related to these matters is subject to change in future periods, depending on then current events and circumstances, which could have material adverse effects on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

OVERVIEW

Business
 
Dynamics Research Corporation is a leading technology and management consulting company focused on driving performance, process, and results for government clients.  We have large company capabilities, small company agility, and a track record providing innovative solutions and rock solid results.  Our go-to-market strategy has several dimensions:

·
Well Positioned in the Best Funded Federal Markets.  We believe these markets – healthcare, research and development, homeland security, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and financial/regulatory reform – will receive sustained priority funding for years to come, based on long-term market force drivers such as (i) the need to curb the growth of healthcare costs and improve quality of care, (ii) the continued emergence of cyber threats, (iii) the on-going war on terrorism, (iv) immigration reform, (v) increased financial regulation, (vi) tax reform, (vii) the need for greater efficiency, (viii) technologically driven change, and (ix) changing federal workforce demographics.

·
Relevant, Differentiated Capabilities.  We solve our clients’ most complex problems, applying cost effective and emerging technologies.  Our solutions – in the science and technology, information technology and management services areas – are differentiated capabilities such as high performance computing, cloud computing, big data, health informatics, mobile, cyber-security, technology strategy and governance, and systems and software engineering.  We believe our capabilities align well with the needs of today’s government clients that require improved efficiencies and effectiveness, and face procurement reform, transformational and technology based changes, and ongoing, changing security threats.

·
Highly Talented Workforce.  We have a highly credentialed and degreed staff - smart, talented experts in their field. Our staff has a record of success solving difficult technical problems, providing the most cost effective solutions, and using a process driven approach.  We have hard-working, vibrant breakthrough thinkers, who are focused on client needs and results driven.

·
Extensive Prime Contract Portfolio.  Our contracts enable direct client access. We hold a broad, outstanding portfolio of government and agency-wide multiple award schedule indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (“ID/IQ”) task order contracts and single award base purchase agreements.  Today, these types of contracts are the federal government’s preferred means of procurement for services.

·
Strong Growth Platform.  Rapidly adaptable to change, our integrated financial, contracts, human resources, and technology infrastructure provides consistent, reliable results to our clients.  As a highly scalable capability, we can commit to support our clients’ most stringent and complex needs.

Market

In the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, 93% and 95% of our total revenues were derived from contracts with the United States government, either as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor.  As a result, we are significantly impacted by trends and changes in federal expenditures and procurement policies.  The U.S. government deficit,  budgetary challenges, and efforts to curtail expenditures are on-going and reflected in (i) the Budget Control Act of 2011, which increased the debt ceiling and enacted 10-year discretionary spending caps and automatic spending cuts, referred to as sequestration, which will enact $1.2 trillion of spending cuts over 10 years, (ii) the Defense Strategic Guidance, issued on January 5, 2012 which outlines fundamental changes in Federal defense strategy, providing for a force which is smaller, leaner but agile, flexible, and technologically advanced, and (iii) the ongoing inability of the federal government to legislate spending priorities through the timely approval of an annual budget.

 
20

 
We have seen and anticipate continued impacts from government budget management initiatives, the specific timing and effects of which may not be predictable, such as:

 
Reduced professional services spending;
 
program delays, cuts, and terminations;
 
fewer new program starts;
 
intensified price competition for new business and re-competes of current business; and
 
pressure to reduce dependency on service contractors and set more work aside for small and socially disadvantaged businesses.

These events may result in (i) new business contract wins being lower than expected or needed to sustain growth, (ii) ending of or reductions to current programs and contracts, and (iii) lower profit margins as a result of pricing pressure and the need to invest in winning new and retaining existing business, all of which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Totals may not add due to rounding.
 
Revenue decreased by $8.7 million, or 10.8%, in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, and $21.0 million, or 12.6%, in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. 

Revenue in our priority markets of $52.6 million for the second quarter of 2013 was essentially flat with the same period in 2012.  For the six months ended June 30, 2013, revenue in our priority markets of $105.8 million was down slightly from the same period in 2012.

Healthcare revenues increased 11.1% and 6.0% in the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012.  Growth in this market resulted from a contract award we received in the second half of 2012 from the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration for scientific computing services and additional task orders under our TRICARE Evaluation, Analysis, and Management Support (“TEAMS”) contract.

Homeland security revenue of $9.4 million for the second quarter of 2013 and $19.5 million for the first six months of 2013 were lower than comparable periods in 2012.  The weakness we are experiencing in the homeland security market has resulted from scope reductions on certain Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) headquarters information technology programs.  We have been one of the leading providers of services under DHS’s first Enterprise Acquisition Gateway to Leading Edge (“EAGLE”) contract.  On August 1, 2013, the DHS announced that we were one of 11 companies awarded a new contract, known as EAGLE II, under functional category 2, Information Technology Program Support Services.  The new contract has a 7-year period of performance, enabling us to continue to bid for new EAGLE task orders and continue providing a full range of business and technical management services in support of the Department’s programs and offices.

Research and development revenue of $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2013 and $22.2 million for the first six months of 2013 were essentially flat with the same periods in 2012.  Earlier this year we ended our participation in a research consortium, which generated $7.2 million of mostly pass-through revenue in 2012.  This program generated revenue of $0.1 million and $1.2 million during the second quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $1.3 million and $4.0 million in the respective six month periods.  Excluding this program, revenue in our research and development market grew by 13.6% in the second quarter of 2013 and 12.7% for the first six months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.

Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance revenue of $10.2 million and $20.6 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2013 was up 6.3% and 7.7%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2012 as a result of expansion on existing contracts for Air Force unmanned aerial systems and IT innovation work for an intelligence agency.

Financial regulation and reform revenue of $6.2 million and $12.3 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2013 was up 4.9% and 1.6%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2012.

Defense Readiness, Logistics, and Command, Control, and Communications revenue of $13.9 million and $29.2 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2013 was down 43.0% and 42.7%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2012.  Conditions remain very challenging in these market sectors, where scope reductions on existing contracts and an increase in contract set-asides under Small Business Administration (“SBA”) programs have eroded our business.

Revenue from state government and other programs of $5.6 million and $10.6 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2013 was up 45.9% and 33.4%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2012.  Revenue from other programs is mainly 3rd party cloud certification services under the FedRAMP program.
 
Regarding competitions to re-win existing business we won 96% of the award decisions made in the first half of 2013, compared to 83% of the award decisions made in the first half of 2012.

Totals may not add due to rounding.
 
We expect that substantially all of our funded backlog at June 30, 2013 will generate revenue during the subsequent twelve month period. The funded backlog generally is subject to possible termination at the convenience of the contracting party. Contracts are typically funded on an annual basis or incrementally for shorter time periods. The funded backlog as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 covered approximately 4.3 months and 6.7 months of revenue, respectively. Funded bookings were $48.7 million and $54.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and generated a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 0.7 to one for both periods.
 
23

 
Total contract backlog of $514.7 million as of June 30, 2013 was down from $731.7 million at December 31, 2012 primarily as a result of our termination of participation in a ten-year Department of Defense research program, which generated monthly pass through revenue, removing $109 million from contract backlog.  In addition, a contract awarded to DRC in 2012 and protested was recently terminated and as a result reduced contract backlog by $19 million.
 
Gross Profit

Total gross profit was $10.1 million and $12.5 million for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, resulting in a gross margin of 14.1% and 15.5%, respectively.  For the first half of 2013 and 2012, gross profit was $21.0 million and $26.1 million, respectively, resulting in a gross margin of 14.4% and 15.7%, respectively.  Lower revenue represented approximately $1.4 million and $3.3 million of the gross profit decline in the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively.  Overhead costs included in gross profit totaled $16.4 million, or 22.8% of revenue for the second quarter of 2013, compared with $19.2 million, or 23.7% of revenue for the same period in 2012 and $32.8 million, or 22.5% of revenue for the first half of 2013, compared with $38.2 million, or 22.9% of revenue in the first half of 2012.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.4 million and $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $11.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively, in the first half then ended. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of total revenue in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012 were 7.4% and 7.9%, respectively, and 7.6% and 8.0%, respectively, for the first half then ended. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to staffing reductions and other indirect cost reduction initiatives.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization expense in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012 was $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, for the first half then ended.  The remaining amortization expense for the current fiscal year is expected to be approximately $1.9 million.

Impairment of Goodwill

During the second quarter of 2012, due to a decline in the market price of the Company’s stock, the market capitalization of the Company was below the carrying value of equity, which we considered a triggering event and therefore performed an interim impairment test.  As a result of the impairment test, we recorded a preliminary goodwill impairment charge of $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Interest Expense, net

Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012 was $1.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively, and $4.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, for the first half then ended.  The decrease in interest expense was due to the lower outstanding debt balances.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense) consists of our portion of earnings and losses in HMRTech, gains and losses realized from our deferred compensation plan and results from other non-operating transactions, all of which were immaterial to our results.

Income Tax Provision

We recorded income tax provisions of $0.8 million and $1.7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively, compared to income tax benefits of $3.5 million and $2.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2012, respectively.  The effective income tax rate was 40.7% and 34.8% in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, the effective income tax rate of the first half of 2012 was 40.8%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following discussion analyzes liquidity and capital resources by operating, investing, and financing activities. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit agreement.

Our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition are subject to trends, events, and uncertainties, including demands for capital to support growth, economic conditions, government payment practices, and contractual matters. Our need for access to funds is dependent on future operating results, our growth and acquisition activity, and external conditions.

We have evaluated our future liquidity needs, both from a short-term and long-term basis.  We believe we have sufficient funds to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for the short-term. Cash on hand plus cash generated from operations along with cash available under our credit lines are expected to be sufficient in 2013 to service debt, finance capital expenditures, pay federal and state income taxes, and fund expected pension plan contributions, if necessary. To provide for long-term liquidity, we believe we can generate substantial positive cash flow, as well as obtain additional capital, if necessary, from the use of debt or equity. In the event that our current capital resources are not sufficient to fund requirements, we believe our access to additional capital resources would be sufficient to meet our needs.

Operating Activities
 
Net cash used in contract receivables were $2.9 million in the first half of 2013 compared to net cash provided of $2.4 million in the same period of 2012.  In the first half of 2013, billed receivables represented $3.7 million of the change, partially offset by $0.8 in unbilled receivables, compared to $5.7 million in unbilled receivables, partially offset by $3.3 million in billed receivables in the same period of 2012.  Contract receivables days sales outstanding (“DSO”), was 64 days at June 30, 2013 compared to 59 days at December 31, 2012 and 71 days at June 30, 2012.  Federal business DSO, which excludes the effect of state contracts, was 54 days at June 30, 2013 compared to 50 days at December 31, 2012 and 63 days at June 30, 2012.  A slowdown in federal government payments, including the Department of Defense suspension in late February 2013 of the Quick Pay initiative, was the primary cause of an increase in billed receivables as of June 30, 2013 as compared to December 31, 2012.

On March 1, 2013, we received an indication of intent from a customer to reduce the scope of our work on a contract, on which we had $4.1 million and $4.0 million in unbilled receivables at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, for costs incurred in advance of billings.  Recovery of these costs is expected through (i) future milestone payments of $2.2 million for work completed or expected to be completed and delivered, and (ii) the remaining balance under the termination for convenience provision of the contract for work we had performed prior to the reduction in scope.

Our net deferred tax asset was $8.4 million and $11.7 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The decrease in the net deferred tax asset was primarily due to amortization of intangible assets.  During the first half of 2013, we received a net refund of approximately $0.7 million in income taxes and currently anticipate net income tax payments of $0.1 million in the remaining half of 2013, for a total net refund anticipated of $0.6 million for the full year 2013.

Share-based compensation was $0.3 million and $0.4 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013 the total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was $0.8 million which is expected to be amortized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

Non-cash amortization expense of our acquired intangible assets was $1.9 million and $2.1 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  We anticipate that non-cash expense for the amortization of intangible assets will remain at a comparable quarterly level for the remainder of 2013.
 
25

 
Our defined benefit pension plan was underfunded by $27.5 million and $28.9 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  We contributed $1.2 million to fund the pension plan in the first half of 2013 compared to $1.1 million in the same period of 2012.  We recorded pension expense of $0.1 million and $0.4 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  We expect to contribute a total of $2.7 million to fund the pension plan and anticipate pension expense to be approximately $0.2 million in 2013.
 
Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.5 million and $2.5 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Net cash used in investing activities in the first half of 2013 primarily consisted of $0.6 million in payments for capital expenditures, partially offset by $0.1 million in dividends.  Net cash used in investing activities in the first half of 2012 primarily consisted of the settlement of a working capital payment related to the High Performance Technologies, Inc. acquisition of $2.4 million and payments for capital expenditures of $0.2 million.  We expect discretionary capital expenditures in 2013 to be in the range of $1.0 million to $1.5 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.0 million and $5.5 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities in the first half of 2013 was primarily due to repayments under the senior term loan of $6.9 million and $0.2 million in payments of repurchased shares, which represented the fair value of shares re-issued in connection with our offer to repurchase certain shares that were not registered under federal securities law, partially offset by $6.0 million in net borrowing under the revolver and proceeds of $0.2 million from the issuance of common stock through stock plan transactions.  Net cash used in financing activities in the first half of 2012 was primarily due to repayments under our senior term loan of $6.5 million, partially offset by net borrowings under the revolver of $0.8 million and proceeds from the issuance of common stock through stock plan transactions of $0.2 million.

During the first half of 2013, the average outstanding balance of our senior term loan was $64.8 million at a weighted average interest rate of 4.26% compared to $78.3 million at a weighted average interest rate of 4.18% in the first half of 2012.  The average outstanding balance of our subordinated loan was $25.0 million and $40.0 million in the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively, at an interest rate of 13.0%.  In addition, our revolver balance was $7.0 million and $0.8 million at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, at a weighted average interest rate of 4.78% and 5.75% for each respective period.

For the remainder of 2013, our senior term loan requires quarterly payments totaling $8.3 million.  We expect operating cash flows will exceed these required repayments.  We will continue to consider prepaying the outstanding balance of the subordinated loan with excess cash flow.

At June 30, 2013, the borrowing capacity under our revolver was $12.5 million.  At June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with our loan covenants.  Our most stringent financial covenant is the fixed charge coverage ratio.  This covenant requires us to maintain a ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to adjusted consolidated interest expense of not less than 1.10 to 1.00.  At June 30, 2013, our fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.31 to 1.00.  This fixed charge coverage ratio is tested on a quarterly basis and is measured on a trailing four fiscal quarter basis.

Effective April 26, 2013, we amended our credit agreement to adjust the calculation of Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage ratio to exclude from the calculation of Consolidated Fixed Charges the impact of any make-whole or call payments related to any such payment of the subordinated debt.
 
26

 
Under our interest rate swap agreement, we receive a floating rate based on the 90-day LIBOR rate and pay a fixed rate of 4.68% (including the applicable margin of 4.00%) on the outstanding notional amount. The swap fixed rate was structured to mirror the payment terms of the term loan.  The fair value of the swap at inception was zero.  It is not expected that any gains or losses will be reported in the statement of operations during the term of the agreement as the swap is expected to be highly effective through its maturity based on the matching terms of the swap and facility agreements.  If, at any time, the swap is determined to be ineffective, in whole or in part, due to changes in the interest rate swap or underlying debt agreements, the fair value of the portion of the swap determined to be ineffective will be recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of operations for the applicable period.  The interest rate swap agreement matures on September 30, 2013.

On March 15, 2013, the Company completed an offer to rescind the sale of up to approximately 86,500 shares issued through the Company’s 2003 ESPP between July 2007 and May 2011 that were not registered under federal or state securities laws.  The Company paid a total of $0.4 million to the original purchasers for the repurchase of approximately 30,100 shares of the Company’s common stock.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk associated with our revolver and senior term loan, where interest payments are tied to either the LIBOR or prime rate.  At June 30, 2013, the interest rate on our senior term loan was 4.20%.  Our interest rate swap agreement mitigates the floating interest rate risk on a portion of our outstanding term loan.  The swap agreement effectively fixes the interest rate on a portion of our outstanding term loan at 4.68%, which includes the applicable margin of 4.00% at June 30, 2013. The blended interest rate of our term loan and swap agreement was 4.34% at June 30, 2013.  At any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have an adverse effect on net interest expense as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our potential loss over one year that would result in a hypothetical and instantaneous increase of one full percentage point in the interest rate on the variable portion of the senior term loan would increase annual interest expense by approximately $0.4 million.

In addition, our historical investment positions have been relatively small and short-term in nature.  We typically invest excess cash in money market accounts with original maturities of three months or less with no exposure to market interest rates. We have no significant exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. Foreign sales, which are nominal, are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”) evaluated, together with other members of senior management, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2013; and, based on this review, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2013, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by it in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the quarterly period ended June 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
