Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Business Operations

 

Business

 

NV5 Global, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “NV5 Global”) is a provider of professional and technical engineering and consulting solutions to public and private sector clients in the infrastructure, energy, construction, real estate and environmental markets, operating through a network of 58 offices locations nationwide. The Company’s clients include the U.S. federal, state and local governments, and the private sector. NV5 Global provides a wide range of services, including, but not limited to, planning, design, consulting, permitting, inspection and field supervision, management oversight, forensic engineering, litigation support, condition assessment and compliance certification.

  

Equity Transactions

 

Secondary offering

 

On May 13, 2016, the Company priced a secondary offering of 1,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Firm Shares”). Each share was sold at an offering price of $26.25 per share. The shares sold were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on an effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-206644) pursuant to the Securities Act. In addition, the Company granted the underwriters of this secondary offering a 30-day option to purchase an additional 255,000 shares (the “Option Shares”) of common stock to cover over-allotments. On May 18, 2016, the Company closed on the Firm Shares, for which we received net proceeds of approximately $41,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company and issued 1,700,000 shares. On June 3, 2016, the Company closed on the full exercise of the Option Shares by the underwriters of the secondary offering with respect to an additional 255,000 shares of its common stock, for which we received net proceeds of approximately $6,200 after deducting the underwriters’ discount.

 

Warrant exercise

 

In conjunction with the Company’s initial public offering on March 26, 2013, the underwriter received a warrant to acquire up to 140,000 units at an exercise price of $7.80 per unit (“Unit Warrant”).  Each of these units consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.80 per share, which warrant expires on March 27, 2018. On March 23, 2016, the underwriter paid $1,008 to the Company to initiate the exercise of the Unit Warrant.  On March 29, 2016, the Company delivered 140,000 shares of common stock to the underwriter, and, on May 5, 2016, the Company completed the exercise of the Unit Warrant by delivery of the warrant. 

   

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for reporting of interim financial information. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NV5 Global, Inc. and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company as of the dates and for the periods presented. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 has been derived from those financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future interim period or for the full 2016 fiscal year.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share data)

 

 Use of Estimates

  

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s most recent assessment of underlying facts and circumstances using the most recent information available. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, and the differences could be material.

 

Estimates and assumptions are evaluated periodically and adjusted when necessary. The more significant estimates affecting amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements relate to the fair value estimates used in accounting for business combinations including the valuation of identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration, fair value estimates in determining the fair value of its reporting units for goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition on the percentage-of-completion method, allowances for uncollectible accounts and provision for income taxes.

  

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

 Trade receivable balances carried by the Company are comprised of accounts from a diverse client base across a broad range of industries and are not collateralized. However, approximately 25% and 47% of the Company’s gross revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, are from California-based projects. The Company does not have any client representing more than 10% of gross revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company had one client representing 12% of gross revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Approximately 50% and 63% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are from government and government-related contracts. Management continually evaluates the creditworthiness of these and future clients and provides for bad debt reserves as necessary.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

 

Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The Company considers cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable, accrued liabilities and debt obligations to meet the definition of financial instruments. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period of time between their origination and their expected realization or payment. The carrying amounts of debt obligations approximate their fair values as the terms are comparable to terms currently offered by local lending institutions for arrangements with similar terms to industry peers with comparable credit characteristics.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(in thousands, except share data)

 

The Company applies the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, in the accounting for its acquisitions, which requires recognition of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values, separately from goodwill. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred and the net of the acquisition date fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets (customer relationships, customer backlog, trade name and non-compete) is based on valuations performed to determine the fair values of such assets as of the acquisition dates. The Company engaged a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the 2016 and 2015 acquisitions. The fair values of earn-out arrangements are included as part of the purchase price of the acquired companies on their respective acquisition dates.  The Company estimates the fair value of contingent earn-out payments as part of the initial purchase price and records the estimated fair value of contingent consideration as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the estimated fair value of contingent earn-out payments are included in General and Administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Net Income and Comprehensive Income.

 

Several factors are considered when determining contingent earn-out liabilities as part of the purchase price, including whether (i) the valuation of the acquisitions is not supported solely by the initial consideration paid, and the contingent earn-out formula is a critical and material component of the valuation approach to determining the purchase price; and (ii) the former owners of the acquired companies that remain as key employees receive compensation other than contingent earn-out payments at a reasonable level compared with the compensation of other key employees.  The contingent earn-out payments are not affected by employment termination.

 

We review and re-assess the estimated fair value of contingent consideration on a quarterly basis, and the updated fair value could differ materially from the initial estimates.  Adjustments to the estimated fair value related to changes in all other unobservable inputs are reported in operating income.

 

The Company measures contingent consideration liabilities recognized in connection with business combinations at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs classified within Level 3, as defined in the accounting guidance. The Company uses a probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach as a valuation technique to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date and at each reporting period. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are projections over the earn-out period, and the probability outcome percentages that are assigned to each scenario. Significant increases or decreases to either of these inputs in isolation could result in a significantly higher or lower liability with a higher liability capped by the contractual maximum of the contingent earn-out obligation. Ultimately, the liability will be equivalent to the amount paid, and the difference between the fair value estimate on the acquisition date and amount paid will be recorded in earnings (see Note 10).

  

Goodwill and Intangible Assets 

 

Goodwill is the excess of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination. To determine the amount of goodwill resulting from a business combination, the Company performs an assessment to determine the acquisition date fair value of the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

 

Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include: macroeconomic and industry conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events. If the entity determines that this threshold is met, then performing the two-step quantitative impairment test is unnecessary. The two-step impairment test requires a comparison of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities associated with a reporting unit, including goodwill, with the fair value of the reporting unit. The Company determines fair value through multiple valuation techniques, and weights the results accordingly. NV5 Global is required to make certain subjective and complex judgments in assessing whether an event of impairment of goodwill has occurred, including assumptions and estimates used to determine the fair value of its reporting units. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would calculate the implied fair value of its reporting unit goodwill as compared to the carrying value of its reporting unit goodwill to determine the appropriate impairment charge, if any. The Company has elected to perform its annual goodwill impairment review on August 1 of each year. The Company historically conducts its annual impairment tests on the goodwill using the quantitative method of evaluating goodwill.

Identifiable intangible assets primarily include customer backlog, customer relationships, trade names and non-compete agreements. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. If an indicator of impairment exists, the Company compares the estimated future cash flows of the asset, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, then impairment, if any, is measured as the difference between fair value and carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model.

 

See Note 7 for further information on goodwill and identified intangibles.

  

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. In accordance with the FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share, the effect of potentially dilutive securities is not considered during periods of loss or if the effect is anti-dilutive. The weighted average number of shares outstanding in calculating basic earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 exclude 495,042 and 779,431 non-vested restricted shares, respectively, issued since 2010. These non-vested restricted shares are not included in basic earnings per share until the vesting requirement is met. The weighted average number of shares outstanding in calculating diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 includes, if outstanding, non-vested restricted shares and units, issuable shares related to acquisitions, and the shares and warrants associated with the Company’s initial public offering. In calculating diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, there were no potentially anti-dilutive securities.

 

The following table represents a reconciliation of the net income and weighted average shares outstanding for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In March 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-09 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize, in the balance sheet, a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-02 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-17— Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. As part of FASB's accounting simplification initiative, ASU 2015-17 removes the requirement to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. Instead, the update requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with prospective or retrospective application to all periods presented. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of this ASU to be material to its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU was originally effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU and management has not yet determined which method it will apply. In July 2015, FASB voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date to December 31, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. As a result, ASU 2014-09 will become effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on the Company's consolidated net income, financial position and cash flows.

  

Note 4 – Business Acquisitions

 

On May 20, 2016, the Company acquired Dade Moeller & Associates, Inc., a North Carolina corporation ("Dade Moeller"). Dade Moeller provides professional services in radiation protection, health physics, and worker safety to government and commercial facilities.  Dade Moeller's technical expertise includes radiation protection, industrial hygiene and safety, environmental services and laboratory consulting.  This acquisition expanded the Company’s environmental, health and safety services and allows the Company to offer these services on a broader scale within its existing network. The purchase price of this acquisition was $20,000 including $10,000 in cash, $6,000 in promissory notes (bearing interest at 3.5%), payable in four installments of $1,500, due on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of May 20, 2016, the effective date of the acquisition (see Note 9), $1,000 of the Company’s common stock (36,261 shares) as of the closing date of the acquisition, and $3,000 in stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s stock, at our discretion, payable in three installments of $1,000, due on the first, second and third anniversaries of May 20, 2016. In order to ultimately determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Dade Moeller, we engaged a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities, however as of the date of this report, the valuation was not final. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation with respect to this transaction by the end of the third quarter of 2016.

 

On February 1, 2016, the Company acquired Sebesta, Inc. (“Sebesta”), a St. Paul, Minnesota-based mechanical, electrical and plumbing (“MEP”) engineering and energy management company. Primary clients include federal and state governments, power and utility companies, and major educational, healthcare, industrial and commercial property owners throughout the United States. The purchase price of this acquisition was $14,000 paid from cash on hand. This acquisition expanded the Company’s MEP engineering and energy and allows the Company to offer these services on a broader scale within its existing network. In addition, this acquisition strengthens the Company’s geographic diversification and allows the Company to continue expanding its national footprint. In order to ultimately determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Sebesta, we engaged a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities, which we finalized during the second quarter of 2016.

Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

  

Goodwill

 

On August 1, 2015, the Company conducted its annual impairment tests using the quantitative method of evaluating goodwill. Based on the quantitative analyses the Company determined the fair value of each of the reporting units exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the goodwill was not impaired and the Company did not recognize an impairment charge relating to goodwill as of August 1, 2015. There were no indicators, events or changes in circumstances that would indicate goodwill was impaired during the period from August 2, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into a Business Loan Agreement with Western Alliance Bank, an Arizona corporation (“Western Alliance”), as lender, which was amended on September 3, 2014 and provides for a two-year, $8,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The interest rate is prime rate plus 0.50%, with a minimum of 3.75%, which was the interest rate as of June 30, 2016. The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, including an annual maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio of 3.0:1.0 as of December 31, 2014 and for each annual period ending on the last day of each fiscal year thereafter. In addition, the Credit Facility contains an annual minimum debt service coverage ratio equal to 1.5:1.0 for each annual period ending on the last day of the fiscal year beginning December 31, 2013. The Credit Facility also contains financial reporting covenant provisions and other covenants, representations, warranties, indemnities, and events of default that are customary for facilities of this type. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) NV5 Holdings, (ii) NV5, Inc., (iii) NV5, LLC, (iv) JLA, and (v) The RBA Group, Inc. Engineers, Architects and Planners (“RBA”). As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company is in compliance with the financial and reporting covenants. The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of NV5 Global, Inc., NV5 Holdings and NV5. On July 20, 2015, we amended the Credit Facility to add additional subsidiary guarantors, establish a within-line facility of up to $1,000 for the issuance of standby letters of credit and extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility to May 31, 2016 from January 31, 2016. The Company is currently in discussions with various lenders to increase and expand into a new revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $0. Standby letters of credit outstanding were $146 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

 

Note Payable

 

The note held by the seller of Nolte Associates Inc. (the “Nolte Note”) is currently outstanding with a maturity date of July 29, 2017. The Nolte Note bears interest at the prime rate plus 1%, subject to a maximum rate of 7.0%. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the actual interest rate was 4.25%. Under the terms of the Nolte Note, as amended, the Company pays quarterly principal installments of approximately $100 plus interest. The Nolte Note is unsecured. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance on the Nolte Note was approximately $516 and $754, respectively.

Litigation, Claims and Assessments

 

The Company is subject to certain claims and lawsuits typically filed against the engineering, consulting and construction profession, alleging primarily professional errors or omissions. The Company carries professional liability insurance, subject to certain deductibles and policy limits, against such claims. However, in some actions, parties are seeking damages that exceed our insurance coverage or for which we are not insured. While management does not believe that the resolution of these claims will have a material adverse effect, individually or in aggregate, on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, management acknowledges the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of these matters.

The Company’s office leases are classified as operating leases and rent expense is included in facilities and facilities related expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of net income and comprehensive income. Some lease terms include rent and other concessions and rent escalation clauses which are included in computing minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease term. The variance of rent expense recognized from the amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases is included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

  

Note 12 – Stock-Based Compensation

 

In October 2011, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, which was subsequently amended and restated in March 2013 (as amended, the “2011 Equity Plan”). The 2011 Equity Plan provides directors, executive officers, and other employees of the Company with additional incentives by allowing them to acquire ownership interest in the business and, as a result, encouraging them to contribute to the Company’s success. The Company may provide these incentives through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units, and other cash-based or stock-based awards. As of June 30, 2016, 495,042 shares of common stock are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2011 Equity Plan. This reserve automatically increases on each January 1 from 2014 through 2023, by an amount equal to the smaller of (i) 3.5% of the number of shares issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or (ii) an amount determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. The restricted shares of common stock granted generally provide for service-based vesting after two to four years following the grant date. A summary of the changes in unvested shares of the restricted stock during the year ended June 30, 2016 is presented below.

 

The following table summarizes the status of restricted stock awards as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and changes during 2016:

 

   

Number of Unvested Restricted Shares of Common Stock and Restricted Stock Units

    512,770     $ 15.89  

  

Share-based compensation expense relating to restricted stock awards during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $550 and $388, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1,049 and $666, respectively. Approximately $5,279 of deferred compensation, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 2.4 years, is unrecognized at June 30, 2016.

  

Note 13 – Income Taxes

 

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had net current deferred income tax assets of $1,440 and non-current deferred tax liabilities of $1,634 and $1,582, respectively. No valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred income tax assets is needed as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 as it is more-likely-than-not that the positions will be realized upon settlement. Deferred income tax liabilities primarily relate to intangible assets and accounting basis adjustments where the Company has a future obligation for tax purposes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company did not record any deferred tax assets or liabilities in conjunction with the purchase price allocation of acquisitions as a result of the intangibles acquired.

The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 36.7% and 36.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 36.5% and 36.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rate and the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate of approximately 39.0% is principally due to the federal domestic production activities deduction.

 

The Company evaluates tax positions for recognition using a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, and those tax positions eligible for recognition are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon the effective settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The California Franchise Tax Board (“CFTB”) is challenging the use of certain research and development tax credits generated and included on the tax returns of an acquired company for the years 2005 to 2009. Fiscal years 2005 through 2015 are considered open tax years in the State of California and 2012 through 2015 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and other state jurisdictions.

 

 At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $570 of unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $570 of tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate. It is not expected that there will be a significant change in the unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months.

  

Note 14 – Reportable Segments

 

The Company reports segment information in accordance with ASC Topic No. 280 "Segment Reporting" ("Topic No. 280"). As of June 30, 2016, the Company continues to report based on the following reportable segments:

 

Infrastructure, engineering and support services (INF): The INF reportable segment provides to clients a broad array of services in the area of engineering, design and support services; and energy services.

 

Construction quality assurance (CQA): The CQA reportable segment provides construction inspection; geotechnical and engineering services; construction claims and litigation services; and environmental quality testing services.

 

Program management services (PM): The PM reportable segment provides program management for transportation and vertical construction projects including construction management. Also currently included in PM are 2016 acquisitions of Sebesta and Dade Moeller.

 

        The Company evaluates the performance of these reportable segments based on their respective operating income before the effect of amortization expense related to acquisitions and other unallocated corporate expenses. We account for inter-segment revenues and transfers as if the sales and transfers were to third parties. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of NV5 Global, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “NV5 Global”) should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 001-35849). This Quarterly Report contains, in addition to unaudited historical information, forward-looking statements, which involve risk and uncertainties. The words “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “plan,” or “continue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from the results those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, if any. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to (and we expressly disclaim any obligation to) revise or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, or otherwise (except as may be required by law), in order to reflect any event or circumstance which may arise after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts presented are in thousands, except per share data.

 

 Overview

 

We are a provider of professional and technical engineering and consulting solutions to public and private sector clients. We focus on the infrastructure, energy, construction, real estate, and environmental markets. We primarily focus on five business verticals - construction quality assurance, infrastructure, energy, program management, and environmental solutions. Our primary clients include U.S. federal, state, municipal, and local government agencies, and military and defense clients. We also serve quasi-public and private sector clients from the education, healthcare, energy, and public utilities, including schools, universities, hospitals, health care providers, insurance providers, large utility service providers, and large to small energy producers.

  

Recent Acquisition, Developments and Challenges

 

 Acquisitions.

 

On February 1, 2016, we acquired Sebesta, Inc. (“Sebesta”), a St. Paul, Minnesota-based mechanical, electrical and plumbing (“MEP”) engineering and energy management company. Primary clients include federal and state governments, power and utility companies, and major educational, healthcare, industrial and commercial property owners throughout the United States. The purchase price of this acquisition was $14,000 paid from cash on hand.

 

On May 20, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of Dade Moeller & Associates, Inc. (“Dade Moeller”), a Richland, Washington-based environmental health and safety firm. Dade Moeller specializes in the provision of radiation exposure and protection services as well as nuclear safety and industrial hygiene analyses, a discipline in which they have built a significant federal government client base. The purchase price of this acquisition was $20,000 including $10,000 in cash, $6,000 in promissory notes (bearing interest at 3.0%), payable in four installments of $1,500, due on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of May 20, 2016, the effective date of the acquisition, $1,000 of our common stock (36,261 shares) as of the closing date of the acquisition, and $3,000 in shares of our stock or a combination of cash and shares of our stock, at our discretion, payable in three installments of $1,000, due on the first, second and third anniversaries of May 20, 2016.

  

Equity Transactions.

 

On May 13, 2016, we priced a secondary offering of 1,700,000 shares of our common stock (the “Firm Shares”). Each share was sold at an offering price of $26.25 per share. The shares sold were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on an effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-206644) pursuant to the Securities Act. In addition, we granted the underwriters of this secondary offering a 30-day option to purchase an additional 255,000 shares (the “Option Shares”) of common stock to cover over-allotments. On May 18, 2016, we closed on the Firm Shares for which we received net proceeds of approximately $41,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us and issued 1,700,000 shares. On June 3, 2016, we closed on the full exercise of the Option Shares by the underwriters of the secondary offering with respect to an additional 255,000 shares of our common stock, for which we received net proceeds of approximately $6,200 after deducting the underwriters discount.

 

 

 
22

 

 

Warrant exercise.

 

In conjunction with the Company’s initial public offering on March 26, 2013, the underwriter received a warrant to acquire up to 140,000 units at an exercise price of $7.80 per unit (“Unit Warrant”).  Each of these units consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.80 per share, which warrant expires on March 27, 2018. On March 23, 2016, the underwriter paid $1,008 to the Company to initiate the exercise of the Unit Warrant.  On March 29, 2016, the Company delivered 140,000 shares of common stock to the underwriter, and, on May 5, 2016, the Company completed the exercise of the Unit Warrant by delivery of the warrant. 

 

Tax credit.

 

The California Franchise Tax Board (“CFTB”) is challenging the use of certain research and development tax credits generated and included on the tax returns of an acquired company for the years 2005 to 2009. Fiscal years 2005 through 2015 are considered open tax years in the State of California and 2012 through 2015 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and other state jurisdictions. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $570 of unrecognized tax benefits.

 

 Backlog.  

 

As of June 30, 2016, we had approximately $195,500 of gross revenue backlog expected to be recognized over the next 12 months compared to gross revenue backlog of approximately $155,300 as of December 31, 2015. We cannot guarantee that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. In addition, project cancellations or scope adjustments may occur, from time to time, with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog. For example, certain of our contracts with the U.S. federal government and other clients are terminable at the discretion of the client, with or without cause. These types of backlog reductions could adversely affect our revenue and margins. Accordingly, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of our future earnings.

 

 Segments.  

 

As of June 30, 2016, we continue to report based on the following reportable segments:

 

Infrastructure, engineering and support services (INF): The INF reportable segment provides to clients a broad array of services in the area of engineering, design and support services; and energy services.

 

Construction quality assurance (CQA): The CQA reportable segment provides construction inspection; geotechnical and engineering services; construction claims and litigation services; and environmental quality testing services.

 

Program management services (PM): The PM reportable segment provides program management for transportation and vertical construction projects including construction management. Also currently included in PM are 2016 acquisitions of Sebesta and Dade Moeller.

Components of Income and Expense

 

Revenues

 

 We enter into contracts with our clients that contain two principal types of pricing provisions: cost-reimbursable and fixed-price. The majority of our contracts are cost-reimbursable contracts that fall under the relatively low-risk subcategory of time and materials contracts.

 

Cost-reimbursable contracts. Cost-reimbursable contracts consist of two similar contract types: time and materials contracts and cost-plus contracts.

 

 

Time and materials contracts are common for smaller scale professional and technical consulting and certification services projects. Under these types of contracts, there is no predetermined fee. Instead, we negotiate hourly billing rates and charge our clients based upon actual hours expended on a project. In addition, any direct project expenditures are passed through to the client and are typically reimbursed. These contracts may have a fixed-price element in the form of an initial not-to-exceed or guaranteed maximum price provision.

 

 

Cost-plus contracts are the predominant contracting method used by U.S. federal, state, and local governments. These contracts provide for reimbursement of the actual costs and overhead (predetermined rates) we incur, plus a predetermined fee. Under some cost-plus contracts, our fee may be based on quality, schedule, and other performance factors.

  

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, cost-reimbursable contracts represented approximately 84% and 91%, respectively, of our total revenues.

 

Fixed-price contracts.

 

Fixed-price contracts also consist of two contract types: lump-sum contracts and fixed-unit price contracts.

 

 

• 

Lump-sum contracts typically require the performance of all of the work under the contract for a specified lump-sum fee, subject to price adjustments if the scope of the project changes or unforeseen conditions arise. Many of our lump-sum contracts are negotiated and arise in the design of projects with a specified scope and project deliverables.

     

 

• 

Fixed-unit price contracts typically require the performance of an estimated number of units of work at an agreed price per unit, with the total payment under the contract determined by the actual number of units performed.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, fixed-price contracts represented approximately 16% and 9%, respectively, of our total revenues.

 

Revenues from engineering services are recognized in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues under cost-reimbursable contracts are recognized when services are performed and revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, generally measured by the direct costs incurred to date as compared to the estimated total direct costs for each contract.

 

      Direct Costs of Revenues

 

Direct costs of revenues consist primarily of that portion of technical and non-technical salaries and wages incurred in connection with fee generating projects. Direct costs of revenues also include production expenses, sub-consultant services, and other expenses that are incurred in connection with our fee generating projects. Direct costs of revenues exclude that portion of technical and non-technical salaries and wages related to marketing efforts, vacations, holidays, and other time not spent directly generating fees under existing contracts. Such costs are included in operating expenses. Additionally, payroll taxes, bonuses, and employee benefit costs for all of our personnel, facilities costs, and depreciation and amortization are included in operating expenses since no allocation of these costs is made to direct costs of revenues. We expense direct costs of revenues when incurred.

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses include the costs of the marketing and support staffs, other marketing expenses, management and administrative personnel costs, payroll taxes, bonuses and employee benefits for all of our employees and the portion of salaries and wages not allocated to direct costs of revenues for those employees who provide our services. Operating expenses also include facility costs, depreciation and amortization, professional services, legal and accounting fees, and administrative operating costs. We expense operating costs when incurred.

  

 Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”)

  

We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Act, and could remain for up to five years. We will utilize certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies. For example, we will not have to provide an auditor’s attestation report on our internal controls in future annual reports on Form 10-K as otherwise required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The JOBS Act also permits us, as an “emerging growth company,” to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have chosen to “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards when they are required to be adopted by issuers. This decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

  

The discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. During the preparation of these financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those discussed below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of our analysis form the basis for making assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and the impact of such differences may be material to our financial statements. Our estimates and assumptions are evaluated periodically and adjusted when necessary. The more significant estimates affecting amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements relate to the fair value estimates used in accounting for business combinations including the valuation of identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration, fair value estimates in determining the fair value of its reporting units for goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition on the percentage-of-completion method, allowances for uncollectible accounts and provision for income taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we did not experience any significant changes in estimates or judgments inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Net Revenues is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Gross revenues include sub-consultant costs and other direct costs which are generally pass-through costs. The Company believes that Net Revenues, which is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry, provides a meaningful perspective of business results.

  

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 compared to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

 

Gross and Net Revenues.

 

Our consolidated gross revenues increased approximately $21,411 and $37,163 or approximately 62.1% and 58.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. Our consolidated net revenues increased approximately $16,697 and $31,981 or approximately 60.2% and 63.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. The increases in gross and net revenues are due primarily to organic growth from our existing platform as well as the contribution from various acquisitions completed in 2015 and the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in gross revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, includes gross revenues of $9,662 and $15,117, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2016. The increase in net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, includes net revenues of $8,828 and $13,547, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2016. Also contributing to the increases in net revenues is an increased utilization of our billable employees and reduction of sub-consultants used to perform services in 2016. The growth in revenues was primarily attributable to increases in energy transmission and distribution services; construction materials testing and engineering services; and program and construction management services. We are currently unaware of any delays in current projects and therefore are not anticipating such to influence future revenues. Such revenues could be affected by changes in economic conditions and the impact thereof on our public and quasi-public sector funded projects.

  

Gross Profit Margin.

 

As a percentage of gross revenues, our gross profit margin was 46.9% and 44.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As a percentage of gross revenues, our gross profit margin was 48.9% and 44.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The improved gross profit margins were due primarily to reduction of sub-consultants used to perform services.

Operating expenses.

 

Our operating expenses increased approximately $9,012 and $17,411, or 71.5% and 73.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. The increases in operating expenses were due primarily to integration costs from businesses acquired subsequent to June 30, 2015. The increases in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, include operating expenses of $4,702 and $7,412, respectively, related to acquisitions closed during 2016. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, acquisition related expenses were approximately $178 and $431, respectively, compared to approximately $333 and $396, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Also contributing to the increase in operating costs is the increased amortization of intangible assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, amortization of intangible assets was approximately $1,025 and $1,889, respectively, compared to $597 and $1,086, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Operating expenses typically fluctuate as a result of changes in headcount (both corporate and field locations) and the amount of spending required to support our professional services activities, which normally require additional overhead costs. Therefore, when our professional services revenues increase or decrease, it is not unusual to see a corresponding change in operating expenses.

 

Income taxes.

 

Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 36.7% and 36.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 36.5% and 36.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rate and the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate of approximately 39.0% is principally due to the federal domestic production activities deduction.

Operating income from INF increased $2,224 and $4,282, or 114.2% and 80.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The increases in operating income from INF is primarily due to increased revenues from organic growth, contributions from acquisitions completed in 2015 for a full period in 2016 as well as a reduction of sub-consultants used to perform services.

 

Our gross revenues from CQA reportable segment increased approximately $1,188 and $2,681 or 18.8% and 20.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The growth in revenues from CQA was primarily attributable to increases in construction materials testing and engineering services.

 

Operating income from CQA increased $91 and $1,146, or 8.2% and 56.6%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase in operating income from CQA is primarily due to the increase in revenues and a reduction of sub-consultants used to perform services.

 

Our gross revenues from PM reportable segment increased approximately $9,973 and $18,538, or 89.2% and 105.6%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. Excluding revenues from acquisitions closed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, our revenues from PM increased approximately $311 and $3,421, or 3% and 19.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The growth in revenues from PM was primarily attributable to increases in civil and facilities program management and construction management services.

 

Operating income from PM increased $303 and $1,054, or 10.8% and 24.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase in operating income from PM is primarily due to increased revenues from organic growth and from the contributions from acquisitions completed in 2016.

  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flow from operations, lines of credit, and access to financial markets. Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, and acquisition expenditures. We believe our sources of liquidity, including cash flow from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, which include proceeds from our initial public offering, proceeds from the exercise of warrants issued in connection therewith, proceeds from our secondary offerings, and borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our projected cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We will monitor our capital requirements thereafter to ensure our needs are in line with available capital resources.

 

We believe our experienced employees and management team are our most valuable resources. Attracting, training, and retaining key personnel have been and will remain critical to our success. To achieve our human capital goals, we intend to remain focused on providing our personnel with entrepreneurial opportunities to increase client contact within their areas of expertise and to expand our business within our service offerings.

 

Cash Flows

 

As of June 30, 2016, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $51,057 and accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled $62,760, compared to $23,476 and $47,747, respectively, on December 31, 2015. As of June 30, 2016, our accounts payable and accrued liabilities were $12,457 and $13,164, respectively, compared to $6,658 and $9,564, respectively, on December 31, 2015. Also, as of June 30, 2016, we had notes payable and other obligations and contingent consideration of $16,834 and $907, respectively, compared to $10,707 and $1,279, respectively, on December 31, 2015.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $29,006, primarily due to the proceeds from the secondary offering of $29,422 and the warrant exercise of $3,186 offset by principal repayments of $2,676 towards long-term debt, $533 towards the contingent obligation and $177 in stock repurchase obligations.

  

Financing

 

 Credit Facility

 

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into a Business Loan Agreement with Western Alliance Bank, an Arizona corporation (“Western Alliance”), as lender, which was amended on September 3, 2014 and provides for a two-year, $8,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The interest rate is prime rate plus 0.50%, with a minimum of 3.75%, which was the interest rate as of June 30, 2016. The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, including an annual maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio of 3.0:1.0 as of December 31, 2014 and for each annual period ending on the last day of each fiscal year thereafter. In addition, the Credit Facility contains an annual minimum debt service coverage ratio equal to 1.5:1.0 for each annual period ending on the last day of the fiscal year beginning December 31, 2013. The Credit Facility also contains financial reporting covenant provisions and other covenants, representations, warranties, indemnities, and events of default that are customary for facilities of this type. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) NV5 Holdings, (ii) NV5, Inc. (iii) NV5, LLC, (iv) JLA, and (v) RBA. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company is in compliance with the financial and reporting covenants. The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of NV5 Global, Inc., NV5 Holdings and NV5. On July 20, 2015, we amended the Credit Facility to add additional subsidiary guarantors, establish a within-line facility of up to $1,000 for the issuance of standby letters of credit and extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility to May 31, 2016 from January 31, 2016. We are currently in discussions with several lenders to increase and expand to a new revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $0. Standby letters of credit outstanding were $146 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In March 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-09 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize, in the balance sheet, a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-02 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-17— Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. As part of FASB's accounting simplification initiative, ASU 2015-17 removes the requirement to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. Instead, the update requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with prospective or retrospective application to all periods presented. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of this ASU to be material to its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU was originally effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU and management has not yet determined which method it will apply. In July 2015, FASB voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date to December 31, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. As a result, ASU 2014 will become effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on the Company's consolidated net income, financial position and cash flows.

  

Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Statements

 

Our disclosure and analysis in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including all documents incorporated by reference contain “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. From time to time, we also provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, as well as oral forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, statements regarding our “expectations,” “hopes,” “beliefs,” “intentions,” or “strategies” regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “likely,” “will likely result,” “continue,” “could,” “future,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “target,” “forecast,” “goal,” “observe,” “seek,” “strategy” and other words and terms of similar meaning, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward looking. The forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 10-Q reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance.

 

Forward-looking statements are not historical factors and should not be read as a guarantee or assurance of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, or if such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made or management’s good faith beliefs, expectations and assumptions as of that time with respect to future events. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include:

  

 

our ability to retain the continued service of our key professionals and to identify, hire and retain additional qualified professionals;

 

 

changes in demand from the local and state government and private clients that we serve;

 

 

general economic conditions, nationally and globally, and their effect on the demand and market for our services;

our ability to avoid losses under fixed-price contracts;

 

 

the credit and collection risks associated with our clients;

 

 

our ability to comply with procurement laws and regulations;

 

 

changes in laws, regulations, or policies;

  

 

the enactment of legislation that could limit the ability of local, state and federal agencies to contract for our privatized services;

 

 

our ability to complete our backlog of uncompleted projects as currently projected;

 

 

the risk of employee misconduct or our failure to comply with laws and regulations;

 

 

our ability to control, and operational issues pertaining to, business activities that we conduct with business partners and other third parties;

 

 

significant influence by our principal stockholder and the existence of certain anti-takeover measures in our governing documents; and

 

 

other factors identified throughout this Current Report on Form 10-Q, including those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Business.”

   

The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties, or assumptions, many of which are beyond our control, that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, those factors described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our Form 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports filed with the SEC. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historic results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Readers can find them in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of that filing and under the same heading of this filing. You may obtain a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K through our website, www.nv5.com.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

We are exposed to certain market risks from transactions that are entered into during the normal course of business. We have not entered into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. We have no significant market risk exposure to interest rate changes as substantially all of our debt is currently financed with fixed interest rates. Our only debt subject to interest rate risk is the Credit Facility which interest rate is subject to changes in the prime rate. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $0. As result, we believe our market risk is minimal.
