Note About Forward-Looking Statements
 
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (including Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, from time to time, we and our representatives may make statements that are forward-looking. All statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including, but not limited to, statements about the pending acquisition of the Company and our plans, strategies, adequacy of resources and future financial results (such as revenue, gross profit, operating profit, cash flow, and tax rate), are forward-looking statements. Some of the forward-looking statements can be identified by words like “ anticipates, ” “ believes, ” “ expects, ” “ may, ” “ will, ” “ could, ” “ should, ” “ intends, ” “ plans, ” “ estimates ” and similar references to future periods. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Because these forward-looking statements are based on expectations, estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

•
risks and uncertainties related to the pending acquisition of the Company by Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC, including the timing of completion of the Offer and the Merger (as defined and described on page 18 below), how many of our stockholders will tender their shares in the Offer, the possibility that competing offers will be made, the possibility that various closing conditions for the Offer or the Merger may not be satisfied or waived, possible litigation related to the Offer and the Merger, and the impact of the Offer and the Merger on our operations and business and on our relationships with our employees, clients and suppliers;
•
weakness or volatility in general economic conditions and levels of capital spending by clients in the industries we serve;
•
weakness or volatility in the financial and capital markets, which may result in the postponement or cancellation of our clients' projects or the inability of our clients to pay our fees;
•
the termination of one or more major client contracts or projects;
•
the uncertain timing and funding of new contract awards and renewals;
•
a high concentration of our business with a few large clients;
•
delays or reductions in government spending;
•
credit risks associated with our clients;
•
competitive market pressures;
•
our level of success in attracting, training, and retaining qualified management personnel and other staff employees;
•
foreign currency fluctuations;
•
restrictions on the availability of funds and on our activities under our asset-based, secured credit facility;
•
the availability, retention and cost of qualified labor;
•
changes in tax laws and other government regulations, including the impact of health care reform laws and regulations;
•
the possibility of incurring liability for our business activities, including, but not limited to, the activities of our professional employees and our temporary employees;
•
our performance on client contracts;
•
negative outcome of pending and future claims and litigation;
•
improper disclosure or loss of sensitive or confidential company, client, government, employee or candidate information, including personal data; and
•
government policies, legislation or judicial decisions adverse to our businesses.

More detailed information about these and other risks and uncertainties may be found in our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), particularly in the “Risk Factors” sections in Part I, Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and in Part II, Item 1A below. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to “CDI,” the "Registrant,” the "Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” are to CDI Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries .

1.    Business

CDI Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “CDI”) are providers of solutions based on skilled technical and professional talent. CDI’s business is comprised of four segments: Enterprise Talent, Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions, Engineering Solutions and Management Recruiters International (MRI). The Company provides to clients engineering and information technology solutions encompassing managed, project and talent services. CDI's clients are in multiple industries, including energy, chemicals, infrastructure, aerospace, industrial equipment, technology, as well as municipal and state governments, and the United States (U.S.) Department of Defense. CDI has offices and delivery centers in the U.S. and Canada. In addition, CDI provides recruiting and staffing services through its global MRINetwork ® of franchisees.

On July 31, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC, and Nova Merger Sub, Inc., providing for the acquisition of the Company in an all cash transaction, pursuant to a tender offer followed by a back-end merger. See Note 14 — Subsequent Event.

2.    Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CDI Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 8, 2017. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year.

3.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts disclosed in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the assumptions used in the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, impairment assessment of goodwill, determination of the recoverability of long-lived assets, assessment of legal contingencies and calculation of income taxes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition , and most industry-specific revenue guidance in addition to some cost guidance. ASU 2014-09 establishes a five-step model under the core principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company may apply this guidance using either a full retrospective approach, subject to certain practical expedients, or a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date of initial application. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date that allows the Company to defer the effective date to January 1, 2018. In 2016, the FASB issued two amendments that are effective as of the effective date selected for the original standard. The Company has begun to evaluate the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements but has not completed the evaluation and implementation process. The Company has not yet selected a transition method but has determined that it will utilize the deferred effective date of January 1, 2018 to adopt the standard.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which supersedes ASC 840, Leases (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than 12 months. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change the lessees’ recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from the previous accounting standard. Lessors’ accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, ASU 2016-02 expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. Lessees and lessors will use a modified retrospective transition approach. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited)


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has not determined the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 320): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASU 2016-15) . ASU 2016-15 clarifies how certain cash receipts and payments should be presented in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods with retrospective application for all periods presented. The Company has not determined the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory , which requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings at the beginning period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in the first interim period of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company does not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This ASU clarifies the definition of a business and provides a framework to evaluate when an input and a substantive process are present in an acquisition to be considered a business. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,  Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), which will simplify the goodwill impairment calculation. The standard eliminates the second step of the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the provision of ASU 2017-04 prospectively during the second quarter of 2017.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting (ASU 2017-09). ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not determined the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

4.    Acquisition and Dispositions

EdgeRock Technologies, LLC Acquisition
On October 6, 2015, the Company acquired EdgeRock Technologies, LLC (EdgeRock), a provider of ERP and other specialist IT staffing services, including business intelligence and data analytics, for cash consideration of $33.4 million , including a working capital adjustment that was paid in 2016. EdgeRock currently comprises the entirety of Specialty Talent within the Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions reporting segment. During the first three months of 2016, the Company recorded a benefit of $0.8 million to "Operating and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of operations related to the reversal of the estimated contingent earnout liability.

CDI AndersElite Limited Disposition
On September 16, 2016, the Company completed the sale of CDI AndersElite Limited (Anders), the Company's UK-based staffing and recruitment business in the Enterprise Talent reporting segment, to AndersElite Holdings Ltd. (Holdings), an entity controlled by certain members of Anders' management. The Company received purchase consideration that included £4.5 million cash, £1.75 million subordinated debt in Holdings and warrants representing 19.99% of the fully diluted equity in Holdings. The Company valued the non-cash purchase consideration at £0.5 million and recorded it to "Other non-current assets" in the consolidated balance sheets. In the third quarter of 2016, the Company recorded a loss of $11.3 million to "Loss on disposition of business interests" in the consolidated statements of operation related to the disposition of Anders. Anders did not meet the

criteria to be reported as a discontinued operation under ASU 2014-08; accordingly, Anders' results are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations within continuing operations. See Note 13 — Reporting Segments, for Anders summarized results included in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

5.    Fair Value Disclosures

The Company maintains a non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan for highly compensated employees. The assets of the plan are held in the name of CDI at a third-party financial institution. Separate accounts are maintained for each participant to reflect the amounts deferred by the participant and all earnings and losses on those deferred amounts. The assets of the plan are held in publicly traded mutual funds. The fair value of the plan assets is calculated using the market price of the mutual funds as of the end of the period.

The following tables summarize the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level of the fair value hierarchy for the indicated periods:

The Company performs its annual assessment for impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets using a measurement date of July 1 of each fiscal year. In addition, the Company performs an assessment for impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset is below its carrying value.

Based on a number of events occurring during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, including, but not limited to, the Company's decline in operating performance and pursuit of strategic alternatives that has resulted in the execution of the Merger Agreement (see Note 14 — Subsequent Event), management concluded that an interim assessment for goodwill impairment was required. The Company performed an interim assessment and determined that the fair values for each of the Company's reporting units were in excess of their carrying values. The analysis was based on an allocation of the aggregate consideration expected to be received under the Merger Agreement to the Company's reporting units based on management’s preliminary estimate of relative fair value for each reporting unit. The Company believes it has made reasonable estimates and used reasonable assumptions to calculate the fair value of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets. If actual future results are not consistent with management's estimates and assumptions, or such estimates and assumptions change, the Company may have to incur impairment charges in the future.

7.    Restructuring and Other Related Costs

In September 2016, the Company approved a restructuring plan (the “2016 Restructuring Plan”) to further align its organizational structure, facilities and resource utilization with business volumes and strategic direction. Restructuring actions under the 2016 Restructuring Plan are expected to be completed during 2017 with certain payments related to the consolidation of facilities expected through 2018.

In December 2015, the Company approved a restructuring plan (the “2015 Restructuring Plan”) to better align its organization and operations with the Company's strategy. The 2015 Restructuring Plan was substantially complete by December 31, 2016 with certain payments related to employee severance and the consolidation of facilities expected through 2017 and 2022, respectively.

8.    Credit Facility

On October 30, 2015, the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “U.S. Borrowers”), certain Canadian subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the "Canadian Borrowers"), and certain UK subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the "UK Borrowers"), collectively (the "Borrowers") entered into an agreement for a secured lending facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. and other lenders. The Credit Agreement established a $150.0 million revolving line of credit facility which also includes an option to expand the facility by up to $75.0 million subject to agreement by the lenders, with a five -year term ending on October 30, 2020 . In connection with the sale of Anders, the Company executed an amendment to the Credit Agreement to release all liens and security interests on the UK collateral and allocate the available UK borrowings to the U.S. Borrowers. As of June 30, 2017 , the facility is comprised of two subfacilities with $135.0 million available to the U.S. Borrowers and $15.0 million available to the Canadian Borrowers. It also includes a $25.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $15.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. 

On July 28, 2017, the Company entered into a waiver with Bank of America, as administrative agent, to the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit Agreement, the execution of the Merger Agreement would, after the passage of thirty days, have been deemed a change in control requiring the repayment of borrowed amounts under the Credit Agreement. The waiver has the effect of deeming the occurrence of a change in control upon the closing of the Merger Agreement as opposed to the execution of the Merger Agreement.

Availability under the Credit Agreement is tied to a borrowing base, measured by 85% of eligible billed accounts receivable, plus 80% of eligible unbilled accounts receivable, less customary reserve amounts; provided however that the portion of the borrowing base consisting of 80% of eligible unbilled accounts receivable may not exceed 30% of the sum of (i) 85% of the eligible billed accounts receivable, plus (ii) 80% of the eligible unbilled accounts receivable. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used by the Company and the other Borrowers for general business purposes including capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions and investments. Accounts receivable, used in the determination of the borrowing base, are subject to lender discretion and, in certain circumstances, the lender may use cash balances in a dominion account established with the administrative agent to repay outstanding balances. As a result, amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement are presented as current in the consolidated balance sheets. 

The Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first lien security interest in all of the Borrowers’ personal property (subject to customary exceptions), including, among other things, accounts receivable, equity interests, deposit accounts, intellectual property, and leased properties where books and records are kept.
 
As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had total outstanding borrowings of $15.9 million , letters of credit outstanding of $3.3 million and $95.3 million available to borrow under the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2017 . Interest was payable at rates ranging from 2.33% to 4.25% per annum for outstanding borrowings as of June 30, 2017 .

As of December 31, 2016 , the Company had no outstanding borrowings, letters of credit outstanding of $3.3 million and $122.3 million available to borrow under the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2016 .

9.    Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Although management cannot predict the timing or outcome of these matters with certainty, management does not believe that the final resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

10.    Income Taxes

The Company calculates an effective income tax rate each quarter using the estimated annual effective rate method based upon forecasted annual income by jurisdiction, statutory tax rates and other tax-related items. The impact of discrete items is recognized in the interim period in which they occur. Discrete items and the mix of domestic and foreign pre-tax income and losses with no tax benefit may significantly impact the interim period income tax provision and increase the volatility of the interim period effective tax rate at low levels of pre-tax results.

A valuation allowance has been recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized based on an assessment of positive and negative evidence, including past losses. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the company booked a valuation allowance against federal deferred tax assets due to cumulative losses.

In connection with the sale of Anders, the Company recorded a $19.1 million worthless stock deduction associated with CDI AndersElite Limited on its 2016 U.S. federal income tax return, which was treated as an ordinary loss for tax purposes. This loss resulted in a deferred tax asset of $7.4 million , which can be carried forward for up to 20 years and used against future taxable income. There is no net income tax benefit related to this item due to the full valuation allowance against federal deferred tax assets.

The Company's ability to deduct its net operating loss Carryforwards and to utilize certain other available tax attributes can be substantially constrained under the general annual limitation rules of Section 382 where an ownership change has occurred. The pending acquisition of the Company by Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC should constitute an ownership change.
The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were (14.7)% and (13.0)% , respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal and certain state losses are not recognized due to valuation allowances. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal, certain state losses and United Kingdom losses were not recognized due to valuation allowances.

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. Management’s assessment is made for each taxpayer on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis. A full valuation allowance has been recorded against the deferred tax asset related to federal taxes and certain U.S. state taxes due to cumulative losses over the prior three years. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are increased or decreased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.

Merger Agreement
On July 31, 2017, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Nova Merger Sub, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), providing for the acquisition of the Company by Parent in an all cash transaction, pursuant to a tender offer (the “Offer”), followed by a subsequent back-end merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will commence the Offer for each share of common stock of the Company (“Company Common Shares”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Offer will initially remain open for 20 business days from the date of commencement of the Offer. If at the scheduled expiration time of the Offer any of the conditions to the Offer have not been satisfied or waived, then the Offer may be extended on one or more occasions to permit the satisfaction of all Offer conditions. One of the conditions, the expiration or earlier termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, was satisfied on August 7, 2017. At the effective time of the Merger, each Company Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into the right to receive $8.25 in cash, without interest, other than Company Common Shares held by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries and Company Common Shares held by a holder who has properly exercised dissenters’ rights with respect to such Company Common Shares in accordance with Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the Pennsylvania Entity Transactions Law. For more information regarding the Merger Agreement, the Offer and the Merger, see the Current Report on Form 8-K which was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 1, 2017.

Item 2.      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following Management ' s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report as well as the Note About Forward-Looking Statements.

Executive Overview
Business Overview
CDI seeks to create extraordinary outcomes with its clients by delivering solutions based on skilled technical and professional talent. CDI’s business is comprised of four segments: Enterprise Talent, Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions, Engineering Solutions and Management Recruiters International (MRI). The Company provides to clients engineering and information technology solutions encompassing managed, project and talent services. CDI's clients are in multiple industries, including energy, chemicals, infrastructure, aerospace, industrial equipment, technology, as well as municipal and state governments, and the United States (U.S.) Department of Defense. CDI has offices and delivery centers in the U.S. and Canada. In addition, CDI provides recruiting and staffing services through its global MRINetwork ® of franchisees.  
Enterprise Talent provides staff augmentation, placement and other staffing-related services to support its clients’ access to professional engineering and technology personnel on a temporary or permanent basis. Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions provides clients with specialized technology talent, staff augmentation and solutions including project assessment execution and management services, and outsourced managed services. Engineering Solutions provides engineering and architectural design, as well as deliverable work products and services performed at a CDI facility or at a client's facility under the supervision of CDI personnel. MRI is a global franchisor that provides the use of its trademarks, business systems and training and support services to its franchisees who engage in the search and recruitment of executive, technical, professional and managerial personnel for employment by their clients. See Note 13 —Reporting Segments , in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report.

On July 31, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC, and Nova Merger Sub, Inc., providing for the acquisition of the Company in an all cash transaction, pursuant to a tender offer. See Note 14 — Subsequent Event, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report.
Second Quarter 2017 Overview
Revenue during the second quarter of 2017 decreased by $57.2 million or 25.2% as compared to the second quarter of 2016 primarily due to declines in Enterprise Talent. Enterprise Talent revenue decreased due to reduced staffing volumes at multiple large clients in North America Staffing and the disposition of CDI AndersElite Limited, the Company's UK staffing business, on September 16, 2016. Gross profit decreased by $9.8 million primarily due to the reduction in revenue, partially offset by an increase in overall gross profit margin due to a shift in revenue mix away from the lower margin Enterprise Talent business. Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and actions taken by the company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes, partially offset by a $1.2 million charge in the second quarter of 2017 related to real estate exit and related costs and by Corporate costs associated with the Company's pursuit of strategic alternatives and activities leading to the Merger Agreement. For the second quarter of 2017 , the Company reported an operating loss of $6.3 million compared to an operating loss of $6.5 million in the prior year period and a net loss of $7.9 million compared to $7.5 million in the prior year period, respectively.

Revenue decreased due to reduced revenue across all segments. Enterprise Talent revenue decreased primarily due to reduced staffing volumes at multiple large clients in North America Staffing and the disposition of CDI AndersElite Limited, the Company's UK staffing business, on September 16, 2016. Engineering Solutions revenue decreased primarily due to declines in EC&I. Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions revenue decreased primarily due to declines in both Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions. MRI revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease in contract staffing revenue and, to a lesser extent, franchise fees and royalties.
Gross profit decreased primarily due to the decrease in revenue, partially offset by an increase in overall gross profit margin. Gross profit margin increased primarily due to a shift in revenue mix away from the lower margin Enterprise Talent business.
Operating loss decreased slightly as the reduction in gross profit was more than offset by the reduction in operating and administrative expenses. Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes, partially offset by a $1.2 million charge in the second quarter of 2017 related to real estate exit and related costs and by Corporate costs of $0.9 million associated with the Company's pursuit of strategic alternatives and activities leading to the Merger Agreement.
Income tax expense increased $0.8 million during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016 . The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2017 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal and certain state losses are not recognized due to valuation allowances. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2016 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal, certain state losses and United Kingdom losses were not recognized due to valuation allowances. As such, comparison of effective tax rates for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016 is not meaningful. See Note 10 —Income taxes , in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report for more information.

Revenue decreased due to reduced revenue across all segments. Enterprise Talent revenue decreased primarily due to the disposition of CDI AndersElite Limited, the Company's UK staffing business, on September 16, 2016 and reduced staffing volumes at multiple large clients in North America Staffing. Engineering Solutions revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in EC&I. MRI revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in contract staffing revenue. Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions revenue decreased due to declines in both Technology Solutions and Specialty Talent.
Gross profit decreased primarily due to the reduction in revenue as overall gross profit margin remained relatively flat.
Operating loss increased primarily due to the decrease in gross profit, partially offset by the reduction in operating and administrative expenses. Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes, partially offset by a $1.2 million charge in the second quarter of 2017 related to real estate exit and related costs, Corporate costs of $1.4 million associated with the Company's pursuit of strategic alternatives and activities leading to the Merger Agreement, and investments in business development in Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions.
Income tax expense increased $0.5 million during the first six months of 2017 as compared to the first six months of 2016 . The effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2017 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal and certain state losses are not recognized due to valuation allowances. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2016 is a negative rate due to taxes on profits in Canada and in certain states, while tax benefits for United States Federal, certain state losses and United Kingdom losses were not recognized due to valuation allowances. As such, comparison of effective tax rates for the first six months of 2017 as compared to the first six months of 2016 is not meaningful.

Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and, to a lesser extent, actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes.

Operating results improved primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and, to a lesser extent, an increase in North America Staffing's operating profit as a result of lower operating and administrative expenses.

On September 16, 2016, the Company completed the sale of Anders, the Company's UK staffing business. See Note 4 — Acquisition and Dispositions and Note 13 —Reporting Segments , in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report.
NM - Not meaningful.

Revenue decreased in both the North America and UK Staffing businesses. UK Staffing revenue decreased due to the disposition of CDI AndersElite Limited, the Company's UK staffing business, on September 16, 2016. North America Staffing revenue decreased primarily due to reduced staffing volumes at multiple large clients and, to a lesser extent, lower pricing at certain clients.

Gross profit and gross profit margin decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and, to a lesser extent, the decrease in revenue and lower pricing pressure at certain clients in the North America Staffing business.

Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and, to a lesser extent, actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes.

Operating profit increased primarily due to the disposition of the Company's UK staffing business and, to a lesser extent, an increase in North America Staffing's operating profit as a result of lower operating and administrative expenses.

In the second quarter of 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded $0.3 million and $0.6 million of amortization of EdgeRock acquisition-related intangible assets.

Revenue decreased in both the Specialty Talent and Technology Solutions businesses. Specialty Talent revenue decreased primarily due to fewer active consultants and reduced bill rates. Technology Solutions revenue decreased primarily due to the completion of projects and reduced spending from existing clients.

Gross profit decreased primarily due to the decrease in revenue and, to a lesser extent, a reduction in gross profit margin. Gross profit margin decreased primarily as a result of fewer new placements to offset lower margins for consultants on contract extensions.

Operating and administrative expenses decreased due to variable performance related costs partially offset by investments primarily in sales and recruitment personnel.

Operating loss increased primarily due to the decrease in gross profit.

In the first quarter of 2016, the Company recorded a benefit of $0.8 million related to the reversal of the EdgeRock Technologies, LLC (EdgeRock) acquisition earnout liability.
(2)  
In the first six months of 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded $0.7 million and $1.4 million of amortization of EdgeRock acquisition-related intangible assets.
NM - Not meaningful.

Revenue decreased in Technology Solutions and Specialty Talent. Technology Solutions revenue decreased primarily due to the completion of projects and reduced spending from existing clients. Specialty Talent revenue decreased primarily due to fewer active consultants and reduced bill rates.

Gross profit decreased primarily due to the decrease in revenue and, to a lesser extent, a reduction in gross profit margin. Gross profit margin decreased primarily due to margin compression in Specialty Talent, as a result of fewer new placements to offset lower margins for consultants on contract extensions.

Excluding the impact of the earnout reversal benefit recorded in the first quarter of 2016 and difference in EdgeRock acquisition-related amortization of intangible assets, operating and administrative expenses increased primarily due to investments primarily in sales and recruitment personnel, partially offset by variable performance related costs.
Operating results decreased due to the decrease in gross profit and increase in operating and administrative expenses.

In the second quarter of 2017, the Company's Engineering Solutions segment recorded an expense to "Operating and administrative expenses" of $1.2 million related to real estate exit and related costs in the EC&I business.

Revenue decreased in EC&I and, to a lesser extent, AIE, partially offset by an increase in Government Services. The decrease in EC&I is primarily due to reduced demand for engineering services by downstream and midstream clients as a result of the completion of several large projects as well as the impact of low capital spending by oil and gas clients. The decrease in AIE revenue is primarily due to reduced spending by a large commercial aviation client. The increase in Government Services is primarily due to growth in existing naval defense contracts.

Gross profit decreased primarily due to a reduction in revenue, partially offset by a slight increase in gross profit margin.

Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related and other costs in response to lower business volumes, partially offset by a $1.2 million charge in the second quarter of 2017 related to real estate exit and related costs in the EC&I business.

Excluding the restructuring charge in 2016, operating results decreased primarily due to a reduction in gross profit, partially offset by the decrease in operating and administrative expenses.

The decrease in EC&I is primarily due to reduced demand for engineering services by downstream clients as a result of the completion of several large projects as well as the impact of low capital spending by oil and gas clients. The decrease in AIE revenue is primarily due to reduced spending by a large commercial aviation client and the wind down of the Company's data acquisition and analysis business during the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by growth in other clients. The increase in Government Services is primarily due to growth in existing naval defense contracts.

Gross profit decreased primarily due to a reduction in revenue while overall gross profit margin remained relatively flat.

Operating and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to actions taken by the Company to reduce personnel-related, facilities and other costs in response to lower business volumes, partially offset by a $1.2 million charge in the second quarter of 2017 related to real estate exit and related costs in the EC&I business.
Excluding the restructuring charge in 2016, operating loss increased primarily due to the decrease in gross profit, partially offset by the decrease in operating and administrative costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under credit facilities. The Company's principal uses of cash are operating expenses, capital expenditures, working capital requirements and debt service. Management expects that the Company's current cash balances, cash generated from operations and available borrowing capacity will be sufficient to support the Company's working capital requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

On October 30, 2015, the Company and several of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a secured lending facility (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. and other lenders. The Credit Agreement established a $150.0 million revolving line of credit facility which also includes an option to expand the facility by up to $75.0 million subject to agreement by the lenders, with a five -year term ending on October 30, 2020 . In connection with the sale of Anders, the Company executed an amendment to the Credit Agreement to release all liens and security interests on the UK collateral and allocate the available UK borrowings to the U.S. Borrowers. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used by the Borrowers for general business purposes including capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions and investments. See Note 8 — Credit Facility , in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q Report for more information relating to the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had total outstanding borrowings of $15.9 million and letters of credit outstanding of $3.3 million under the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19.2 million and $95.3 million was available to borrow under the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2017 .

As of June 30, 2017 , approximately 99% of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held by certain non-U.S. subsidiaries, principally by Canadian entities and denominated in Canadian dollars. The repatriation of cash and cash equivalent balances from non-U.S. subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences; however, such cash and cash equivalent balances are generally available, without legal restrictions, to fund ordinary business operations at the local level. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on the unremitted earnings of such non-U.S. subsidiaries because it is management's intention to reinvest such earnings in non-U.S. subsidiaries for the foreseeable future.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from $3.2 million on December 31, 2016 to $19.2 million on June 30, 2017 .

The following table summarizes the net cash flows, by category, from the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows for the indicated periods:

The increase in net cash provided by operations is primarily due to reduced working capital requirements, partially offset by a decline in net operating results after adjusting for non-cash items. Working capital requirements on a comparative basis were impacted by lower business volumes.
Investing Activities
For the first six months of 2017 , net cash used in investing activities was $1.3 million , a decrease in net cash used in investing activities of $5.2 million as compared to 2016 . Cash payments in 2016 were higher primarily due to higher capital expenditures in 2016 and a $2.1 million payment in 2016 related to the EdgeRock Technologies, LLC acquisition.

Financing Activities
For the first six months of 2017 , net cash provided by financing activities was $13.5 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1.7 million during the comparable period in 2016 . The increase in net cash provided by financing activities is primarily due to net borrowings in 2017 compared to net repayments in 2016 under the Company's Credit Agreement, cash paid in 2016 to purchase the Company's stock under the Stock Repurchase Program, partially offset by the change in book overdrafts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts disclosed in this Form 10-Q Report. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Certain accounting policies, methods and estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ from current judgments.
The critical accounting estimates and assumptions identified in the Company's 2016 annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 8, 2017 with the Securities and Exchange Commission have not materially changed.

Item 3.      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk, primarily related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company monitors this risk to limit the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on earnings and cash flows.

Foreign Currency Risk
The Company's exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk relates primarily to its operations denominated in Canadian dollars. Exchange rate fluctuations impact the U.S. dollar value of reported earnings derived from these foreign operations as well as the Company's investment in the net assets related to these operations. The sale of Anders, the Company's UK-based staffing and recruitment business, on September 16, 2106, significantly reduced the Company's exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk with respect to transactions denominated in British pounds sterling.
 
Interest Rate Risk
The interest rate risk associated with the Company's borrowing activities as of June 30, 2017 was not material in relation to its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. While it may do so in the future, the Company has not used derivative financial instruments to alter the interest rate characteristics of its debt instruments. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had total outstanding borrowings of $15.9 million with interest payable at rates ranging from 2.33% to 4.25% per annum.

Item 4.      Controls and Procedures 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
The management of the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2017 . Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date to provide reasonable assurance that information reported in this Form 10-Q Report is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's second quarter ended June 30, 2017 , that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.      Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Although management cannot predict the timing or outcome of these matters with certainty, management does not believe that the final resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
Other than with respect to the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section (Part I, Item 1A) of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The announcement and pendency of our acquisition by Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC (Parent) pursuant to the Offer and the Merger could have an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and operations.
 
The announcement and pendency of the proposed acquisition could cause disruption in our business in various ways, including the following: third parties may choose to delay or defer decisions to do business with us or terminate or renegotiate their contracts with us as a result of our entering into the Merger Agreement; current and prospective employees may regard their future roles with us with uncertainty, which might affect our ability to retain and recruit key personnel; and we have diverted and will continue to divert significant management resources from the day-to-day business operations of the Company toward the Offer and the Merger, which could affect our business and results of operations.
 
The proposed acquisition by Parent is subject to satisfying various conditions that may delay or prevent the completion of the acquisition.
 
The completion of the Offer and the Merger are subject to a number of conditions, including (i) that the number of Company Common Shares validly tendered in the Offer, together with the number of Company Common Shares then owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries, equals at least a majority of the sum of (A) all Company Common Shares then outstanding and (B) all Company Common Shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of all Time-Vested Deferred Stock and stock options, (ii) the expiration or earlier termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (early termination of the waiting period was granted on August 7, 2017), (iii) the absence of any law, injunction, judgment or other legal restraint that prohibits the consummation of the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iv) the accuracy, subject to various standards, of the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement, and (v) the absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Even though we and the other parties to the Merger Agreement are required to use reasonable best efforts to satisfy these conditions, we can give no assurance that all such conditions will be satisfied.
 
Failure to complete the Offer and the Merger could negatively affect our stock price, operating results, prospects and financial condition.
 
We cannot assure that the Offer and the Merger will be completed. If the Offer and the Merger are not completed, we will be subject to several risks. Because the current trading price of our common stock may reflect a market assumption that the Offer and the Merger will occur, failure to complete the Offer and the Merger could adversely affect the price of the Company Common Shares. We have incurred and will incur significant costs in connection with the Offer and the Merger, including the diversion of management resources, for which we will have received little or no benefit if the Offer and the Merger are not consummated. A failed transaction may result in a negative impression of us in the investment community. In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, we may be obligated to pay Parent a termination fee of $5,512,802. In addition, upon termination of the Merger Agreement, under certain circumstances we may be required to reimburse the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of Parent and its affiliates, which expense reimbursement may not exceed $2,500,000 and is creditable against the termination fee, if any. The occurrence of any of these events individually or in combination could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the price of the Company Common Shares.
 
Litigation may arise in connection with the Merger Agreement, which could be costly, prevent consummation of the Offer and the Merger, divert management’s attention and otherwise materially harm our business.

Regardless of the outcome of any future litigation related to the Merger Agreement and the transactions it contemplates, such litigation may be time-consuming and expensive and may distract our management from running the day-to-day operations of our business. The litigation costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources to address the claims and counterclaims in any litigation related to the Merger Agreement and the transactions it contemplates may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. If the Offer and the Merger are not consummated, for any reason, litigation could be filed in connection with the failure to consummate the Offer and the Merger. Any litigation related to the Offer and the Merger may result in negative publicity or an unfavorable impression of the Company, which could adversely affect the

32



price of the Company Common Shares, impair our ability to recruit or retain employees, damage our relationships with our clients, or otherwise materially harm our operations and financial performance.

The Merger Agreement imposes restrictions on the operation of our business prior to closing, which could adversely affect our business.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, we are subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our business, including the ability to (without the prior written consent of Nova Intermediate Parent, LLC) enter into certain types of contracts, make certain capital expenditures, incur certain indebtedness or acquire or dispose of certain assets, until the Merger becomes effective or the Merger Agreement is terminated. These restrictions may prevent us from taking actions with respect to our business that we may consider advantageous and result in our inability to respond effectively to competitive pressures and industry developments, and may otherwise harm our business and operations.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a third party from acquiring us prior to the completion of the Offer and the Merger.
 
The Merger Agreement contains provisions that restrict our ability to entertain a third-party proposal for an acquisition of the Company. These provisions include the general prohibition on our soliciting, initiating or participating in discussions with third parties regarding any alternative acquisition proposal, and the requirement that we pay a termination fee of $5,512,802 to Parent if the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances. These provisions might discourage an otherwise-interested third party from proposing an acquisition of the Company. Furthermore, even if a third party elects to propose an acquisition, the prospect of a termination fee may result in that third party’s offering a lower value to our stockholders than such third party might otherwise have offered.

If the Offer and the Merger are completed, our current stockholders will not participate in any future increase in our value.
 
Our stockholders will be prevented from participating in our potential future earnings and growth or benefit from any potential future increase in our value following the Offer and the Merger.
