BGSF INC

NOTE 1 -NATURE OF OPERATIONS

BGSF, Inc. provides consulting, managed services, and professional workforce solutions to a variety of industries through its various divisions in information technology (“IT”), Finance & Accounting, Managed Solutions, and Property Management (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”).

The Company currently operates primarily within the United States of America (“U.S.”) through the Property Management and Professional segments.

The Property Management segment provides office and maintenance field talent in 37 states and D.C., to property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations.

The Professional segment provides specialized talent and business consultants for IT, managed services, finance, accounting, legal, and human resources. The segment operates across the U.S. in three divisions, IT, Managed Solutions, and Finance & Accounting, with the IT division providing additional nearshore and offshore solutions in Colombia and India.

The Company normally experiences seasonal fluctuations. The quarterly operating results are affected by the number of billing days in a quarter, as well as the seasonality of client partners’ business. Demand for the Property Management workforce solutions has typically increased in the second quarter and is highest during the third quarter of the year due to the increased turns in multifamily units during the summer months when schools are not in session. Overall first quarter demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months. In addition, the Company's cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.

The ongoing macroeconomic environment and interest rates impacts continue to have an adverse impact on market conditions. These factors may continue to impact labor markets by reducing workforce solutions demand by lengthening client and job candidate decision cycles, increasing early terminations, or diminishing projects. As a result, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may continue to be negatively affected.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and operating results of the Company as of and for the respective periods. However, these operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full fiscal year or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, management of the Company believes, to the best of its knowledge, that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 2 -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fiscal Periods

The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal periods for the consolidated financial statements included herein are as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and include the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, referred to herein as Fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2023 financial statements to conform with the 2024 presentation.

Management Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the consolidated financial statements include allowances for credit losses, intangible assets, lease liabilities, contingent consideration obligations related to acquisitions, and income taxes. Additionally, the valuation of share-based compensation expense uses a model based upon interest rates, stock prices, maturity estimates, volatility and other factors. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reliable. However, these estimates and assumptions may change in the future based on actual experience as well as market conditions.

Financial Instruments

The Company uses fair value measurements in areas that include, but are not limited to, the allocation of purchase price consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets, convertible debt, and contingent consideration. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, accrued payroll and expenses, and other current assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of bank debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rates under the credit agreement with BMO Bank, N.A. (“BMO”) that provides for a revolving credit facility, term loan and current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and risk.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of credit risk is limited due to the Company’s diverse client partner base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographic locations nationwide. No single client partner accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 or revenue for the twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023. Geographic revenue in excess of 10% of the Company's consolidated revenue in Fiscal 2024 and the related percentage for Fiscal 2023 was generated in the following areas at:

Consequently, weakness in economic conditions in these regions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of future operations.

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends credit to its client partners in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable represents unpaid balances due from client partners. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for expected losses resulting from client partners’ non-payment of balances due to the Company. The Company’s determination of the allowance for credit losses amounts is based on management’s judgments and assumptions, including general economic conditions, portfolio composition, credit loss, evaluation of credit risk related to certain individual client partners and the Company’s ongoing examination process. Receivables are written off after they are deemed to be uncollectible after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are as follows (in thousands):

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $4.0 million and $4.1 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024, $0.2 million was reclassified to Intangible assets from Property and equipment, primarily related to continued IT improvements, and reclassified $0.1 million from Property and equipment to Goodwill related to the Arroyo Consulting acquisition.

Deposits

The Company maintains guaranteed costs policies for workers' compensation coverage in monopolistic states and minimal loss retention coverage in all other states. Under these policies, the Company is required to maintain refundable deposits of $1.8 million and $2.4 million, which are included in Deposits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Software as a Service

The Company capitalizes direct costs incurred in cloud computing implementation costs from hosting arrangements, which are categorized as long-lived assets, and are reported as Software as a service in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. All other internal-use software development costs are capitalized and reported as a component of computer software within Intangible assets. Software as a service is stated net of accumulated amortization of $2.3 million and $1.9 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024, the Company added capital expenditures of $0.1 million to Software as a service, primarily related to continued IT improvements.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, primarily Property and equipment and Software as a service, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. There wereno impairments with respect to long-lived assets during Fiscal 2024 or Fiscal 2023.

Leases

The Company leases all their office space through operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2030. Many of the lease agreements obligate the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and certain maintenance costs, which are accounted for separately. Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements contain renewal provisions from 3 to 10 years, exercisable at the Company's option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating lease at inception. Leases and subleases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. All other leases and subleases are recorded on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for the lease term.

Right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and include options to extend or terminate the lease when they are reasonably certain to be exercised. The present value of lease payments is determined using the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement date, unless the implicit rate in the lease is readily determinable. The Company’s operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Intangible Assets

The Company holds Intangible assets with finite lives. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, ranging from three toten years, based on a pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective Intangible asset is realized.

Identifiable Intangible assets recognized in conjunction with acquisitions are recorded at fair value. Significant unobservable inputs are used to determine the fair value of the identifiable Intangible assets based on the income approach valuation model whereby the present worth and anticipated future benefits of the identifiable Intangible assets are discounted back to their net present value.

The Company capitalizes purchased software and internal payroll costs directly incurred in the modification of internal use software. During the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024, the Company added $0.6 million and reclassified $0.2 million to Intangible assets from Property and equipment, primarily related to continued IT improvements, and reclassified $0.3 million from Intangible assets to Goodwill related to the Arroyo Consulting acquisition. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed in the period incurred.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of Intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an Intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and its impact on each of the reporting units. The Company annually evaluates the remaining useful lives of all Intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. In Fiscal 2023, management decided to eliminate the use of various trade names and go to market under the BGSF brand. Management's rebranding created an impairment of $22.5 million. There were no impairment indicators during Fiscal 2024. See “Note 6 - Intangible Assets.”

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and its impact on each of the reporting units. If the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value for one or more reporting units is greater than their carrying value, the Company may use a qualitative assessment for the annual impairment test. During the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024, the Company reclassified $0.4 million from Intangible assets and Property and equipment to Goodwill related to the Arroyo Consulting acquisition. The Company determined there were no impairment indicators for goodwill assets during Fiscal 2024 or Fiscal 2023.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective loans. Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.

Contingent Consideration

The Company has obligations, to be paid in cash, related to its acquisitions if certain operating and financial goals are met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using expected cash flows and present value technique. The fair value calculation of the expected future payments uses a discount rate commensurate with the risks of the expected cash flow. The resulting discount is amortized as interest expense over the outstanding period using the effective interest method.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenues in Property Management and Professional segments by providing workforce solutions, placement services, and managed services. Revenues are recognized when promised services are delivered to client partners, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues as presented on the consolidated statements of operations represent services rendered to client partners less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in revenues, and the related amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in cost of services.

The Company records revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of revenues and expenses. The Company has concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because the Company (i) has the risk of identifying and hiring qualified field talent, (ii) has the discretion to select the field talent and establish their price and duties and (iii) bears the risk for services that are not fully paid for by client partners.

Workforce solution revenues - Field talent revenues from contracts with client partners are recognized in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, when the services are rendered by the Company’s field talent.

Contingent placement revenues - Any revenues associated with workforce solutions that are provided on a contingent basis are recognized once the contingency is resolved, as this is when control is transferred to the client partner, usually when employment candidates start their employment.

Retained search placement revenues - Any revenues from these workforce solutions are recognized based on the contractual amount for services completed to date which best depicts the transfer of control of services, which is less than 1% of consolidated revenues.

Managed services revenues - include both workforce solution revenues and fixed fee revenues from client partner contracts. Services performed represent the transfer of control to the client partner over a given period of time. Fixed fee revenues are recognized in equal amounts at fixed intervals as promised services are delivered.

The Company estimates the effect of placement candidates who do not remain with its client partners through the guarantee period (generally 90 days) based on historical experience. Allowances, recorded as a liability, are established to estimate these losses. Fees to client partners are generally calculated as a percentage of the new worker’s annual compensation. No fees for placement workforce solutions are charged to employment candidates. These assumptions determine the timing of revenue recognition for the reported period.

Refer to Note 14 for disaggregated revenues by segment.

Payment terms in the Company's contracts vary by the type and location of its client partner and the workforce solutions offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. There were no unsatisfied performance obligations as of June 30, 2024. There were no revenues recognized during the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024 related to performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods. There are no contract costs capitalized. The Company did not recognize any contract impairments during the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2024. The opening balance of accounts receivable at January 1, 2023 was $66.3 million.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses over the service period for common stock options or restricted stock that are expected to vest and records adjustments to compensation expense at the end of the service period if actual forfeitures differ from original estimates.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities. Antidilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share.

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the respective periods (in thousands):

Income Taxes

The consolidated effective tax rate was 22.3% and 26.6% for the thirteen week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. The consolidated effective tax rate was 13.7% and 24.6% for the twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. Although both fiscal periods consisted of a federal benefit at statutory rates, Fiscal 2024 had a lower state expense and a temporary book to tax difference for equity related items.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has a $2.6 million net operating loss carry forward from the 2020 EdgeRock acquisition with no expiration date. These net operating losses are subject to an annual Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitation of $1.3 million.

When appropriate, the Company will record a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits that may not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is appropriate, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, based in part upon management’s judgments regarding future events and past operating results.

The Company follows the guidance Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes any penalties and interest when necessary as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new standard provides guidance to improve reportable segment disclosure with enhanced reporting of significant segment expenses. The new guidance is effective after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new standard requires annual disclosure of the specific categories in the rate reconciliation, and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additional information may be required on reconciling items. The new guidance is effective after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 -ACQUISITIONS

Arroyo Consulting

On April 24, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain of the liabilities, of Arroyo Consulting for cash consideration of $6.8 million. Certain post-closing liabilities were held back of $0.4 million and partial security for any indemnification obligations was held back for one year of $0.9 million. The purchase agreement further provides for contingent consideration of up to $8.5 million based on the performance of the acquired business for the two years following the date of acquisition. The purchase price at closing was paid out of funds under the Company's credit agreement led by BMO, see “Note 8 - Debt”. The purchase agreement contained a provision for a “true up” of acquired working capital, which was paid on July 1, 2024, out of the delayed draw funds under the Company's credit agreement along with the hold backs and the full year one contingent consideration payment.

The acquired business was assigned to the Professional segment. The acquisition of Arroyo Consulting allows the Company to strengthen the go-to-market cross-selling efforts providing clients a cost effective alternative offering nearshore and offshore IT resources. Arroyo Consulting provides nearshore and offshore professional workforce solutions specializing in IT and software development with operations in the United States, Colombia, and India.

The Fiscal 2023 Arroyo Consulting operations included ten weeks for $4.1 million of revenue and $1.0 million of operating income, which included $0.2 million in amortization expense on acquisition intangibles. The final purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 8 -DEBT

On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which would have matured on July 16, 2024, led by BMO, as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Company entered into four amendments from August 18, 2022 through May 19, 2023, which changed the interest rate component from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), exercised the option to borrow $40.0 million, required 2.5% of the original principal balance of the new term loan, permitted a foreign entity acquisition, modified the distributions terms, and increased a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") by $6.0 million.

On March 12, 2024, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated through the Company’s entry into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, maturing March 12, 2028, led by BMO as administrative agent, letter of credit issuer, and swing line lender (the “Restated Agreement”). The Restated Agreement provides for a Revolving Facility permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount up to $40 million. The Restated Agreement also provides for a term loan commitment, permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time (the “Term Loan”) and for a delayed draw term loan commitment of $4.3 million. The Company is required to repay the Term Loan in quarterly principal installments equal to 2.5% of the aggregate principal balance. The Restated Agreement provides for interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, or the Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Restated Agreement). The Company’s obligations are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company’s and its subsidiaries. The Restated Agreement provides for a maximum Leverage Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Restated Amendment). The Company will pay an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility. The Company was in compliance with the affirmative and negative covenants as of June 30, 2024.

Letter of Credit

In conjunction with the EdgeRock acquisition, the Company entered into a standby letter of credit arrangement, which expires February 12, 2028, for purposes of protecting a lessor against default on lease payments. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a maximum financial exposure from this standby letter of credit totaling $0.1 million, all of which is considered usage against the Revolving Facility. The Company has no history of default, nor is it aware of circumstances that would require it to perform under any of these arrangements and believes that the resolution of any disputes thereunder that might arise in the future would not materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded in respect to these arrangements as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Line of Credit

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $14.1 million and $24.9 million respectively, was outstanding on the revolving facilities. Average daily balance for the thirteen week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 was $14.9 million and $25.4 million, respectively. Average daily balance for the twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 was $17.9 million and $23.0 million, respectively.

Borrowings under the revolving facilities consisted of and bore interest at (in thousands):

Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt consisted of and bore interest at (in thousands):

Convertible Note

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a two-year convertible unsecured promissory note of $4.4 million due to the seller with an annual interest rate of 6%, with interest paid quarterly related to the Horn Solutions acquisition. The promissory note is convertible into shares of our common stock at any time after the one-year anniversary of the promissory note at a conversion price equal to $17.12 per share, prior to the maturity date of December 12, 2024. The promissory note is subordinate to the Company’s senior debt.

NOTE 9 -FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy established prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:

Level 1 - Observable inputs - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities - includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs - includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and requires the Company to develop relevant assumptions.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

The change in the Level 3 fair value measurements from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 is primarily due to the movement of the current portion of the contingent consideration with the net of cash collected under the service agreement to Other current liabilities.

Key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 included discount rates of approximately 7% as well as management's estimates of future sales volumes and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”).

NOTE 10 -CONTINGENCIES

The Company is engaged from time to time in legal matters and proceedings arising out of its normal course of business. The Company establishes a liability related to its legal proceedings and claims when it has determined that it is probable that the Company has incurred a liability and the related amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that an obligation is reasonably possible, the Company will, if material, disclose the nature of the loss contingency and the estimated range of possible loss, or include a statement that no estimate of the loss can be made.

The Company insures against, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of various insurance policies, claims or losses from workers’ compensation, general liability, automobile liability, property damage, professional liability, employment practices, fiduciary liability, fidelity losses, crime and cyber risk, and director and officer liability. Under the Company's bylaws, the Company’s directors and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. The Company also has an insurance policy for our directors and officers to insure them against liabilities arising from the performance of their positions with the Company or its subsidiaries. The Company has also entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain officers.

NOTE 11 –EQUITY

Authorized capital stock consists of 19,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 500,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.

NOTE 13 -TEAM MEMBER BENEFIT PLAN

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company provides a defined contribution plan (the “401(k) Plan”) for the benefit of its eligible team members and field talent. The 401(k) Plan allows participants to make contributions subject to applicable statutory limitations. The Company matches participants contributions 100% up to the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of a team member's or field talent’s compensation. The Company contributed $0.5 million to the 401(k) Plan for the thirteen week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023. The Company contributed $1.0 million to the 401(k) Plan for the twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023.

NOTE 14 -BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company has operations through the Property Management and Professional segments.

Segment income (loss) from operations includes all revenue and cost of services, direct selling expenses, depreciation and amortization expense and excludes all general and administrative (home office) expenses. Assets of home office include cash, unallocated prepaid expenses, property and equipment, deferred income taxes, and other assets.
