1.	Description of Business and Basis of Presentation:

Basis of Presentation

References in this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q

to “we”, “our”, “Mastech Digital”, “Mastech” or “the Company” refer collectively to Mastech Digital, Inc. and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, which are included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Financial Statements”).

Description of Business

We are a provider of Digital Transformation IT Services to mostly large and

medium-sized

organizations.

Our portfolio of offerings includes data management and analytics services, digital learning services and IT staffing services.

With our 2017 acquisition of the services division of Canada-based InfoTrellis, Inc. (“InfoTrellis”), we added specialized capabilities in delivering data and analytics services to our customers, which became our Data and Analytics Services segment. This segment offers project-based consulting services in the areas of data management, data engineering and data science, with such services delivered using

on-site

and offshore resources. In October 2020, we acquired AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. (“AmberLeaf”), a Chicago-based customer experience consulting firm. This acquisition expanded our Data and Analytics Services segment’s capabilities in customer experience strategy and managed services offering for a variety of Cloud-based enterprise applications across sales, marketing and customer service organizations.

Our IT staffing services segment combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of staffing services in digital and mainstream technologies. Our digital technologies include data management, analytics, cloud, mobility, social and artificial intelligence. We work with businesses and institutions with significant IT spending and recurring staffing service needs. We also support smaller organizations with their “project focused” temporary IT staffing requirements.

The

COVID-19

pandemic had a material impact on activity levels in both of our business segments in 2020. This impact was reduced in 2021 because of the global

roll-out

of vaccination programs and signs of improving economic conditions.

COVID-19

related concerns were less impactful on our business in 2022 and 2023. Still, the proliferation of

COVID-19

variants could dis

rupt

global markets during 2024 and beyond.

Accounting Principles

The accompanying Financial Statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

filed with the SEC on March 15, 2024. Additionally, our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or for any other period.

Principles of Consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Critical Accounting Policies

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2023, for a more detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates. There were no material changes to these critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Segment Reporting

The Company has two reportable segments, in accordance with Accounting Standards Committee (“ASC”) Topic 280 “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”: Data and Analytics Services and IT Staffing Services.

2.	Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes revenue on

time-and-material

contracts over time as services are performed and expenses are incurred.

Time-and-material

contracts typically bill at an agreed-upon hourly rate, plus

out-of-pocket

expense reimbursement.

Out-of-pocket

expense reimbursement amounts vary by assignment, but on average represent less than 2% of the total contract revenues. Revenue is earned on a per transaction or labor hour basis, as that amount directly corresponds to the value of the Company’s performance. Revenue recognition is negatively impacted by holidays and consultant vacation and sick days.

The Company recognizes revenue on fixed price contracts over time as services are rendered and uses a cost-based input method to measure progress. Determining a measure of progress requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenue recognized. Under the cost-based input method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. The Company has determined that the cost-based input method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods or services to the customer. Estimated losses are recognized immediately in the period in which current estimates indicate a loss. We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which may be refundable.

The Company’s

time-and-material

and fixed price revenue streams are recognized over time as the customer receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the work is performed.

In certain situations, related to client direct hire assignments, where the Company’s fee is contingent upon the hired resources continued employment with the client, revenue is not fully recognized until such employment conditions are satisfied.

We do not sell, lease or otherwise market computer software or hardware, and, essentially, 100% of our revenue is derived from the sale of data and analytics, IT staffing and digital transformation services. We expense sales commissions in the same period in which revenues are realized. These costs are recorded within sales, general and administrative expenses.

Each contract the Company enters is assessed to determine the promised services to be performed and includes identification of the performance obligations required by the contract. In substantially all contracts, we have identified a single performance obligation for each contract either because the promised services are distinct, or the promised services are highly interrelated and interdependent and therefore represent a combined single performance obligation.

Our Data and Analytics Services segment provides specialized capabilities in delivering data management and analytics services to its customers globally. This business offers project-based consulting services in the areas of Master Data Management, Enterprise Data Integration, Big Data, Analytics and Digital Transformation, which can be delivered using onsite and offshore resources.

Our IT Staffing Services segment combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of services in digital and mainstream technologies. Our digital technology stack includes data management and analytics, cloud, mobility, social and automation. Our mainstream technologies include business intelligence / data warehousing; web services; enterprise resource planning & customer resource management; and

e-Business

solutions. We work with businesses and institutions with significant IT spend and recurring staffing needs. We also support smaller organizations with their “project focused” temporary IT staffing requirements. In late 2023, we expanded our service offerings to include engineering staffing services. Substantially all our revenue is recognized over time.

The following table depicts the disaggregation of our revenues by contract type and operating segment:

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had the same two clients (CGI = 16.1% and Allegis = 10.1%) that each exceeded 10% of total revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had one client (CGI = 24.0%) that exceeded 10% of total revenues.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s top ten clients represented approximately 52% and 55% of total revenues, respectively.

3.	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net

Goodwill of $8.4 million related to our IT Staffing Services segment resulted from the 2015 acquisition of Hudson Global Resources Management’s U.S. IT staffing business. Goodwill related to our Data and Analytics Services segment includes our 2017 acquisition of the services division of InfoTrellis, which totaled $27.4 million, and our 2020 acquisition of AmberLeaf, which totaled $6.4 million. The Company recorded a $5.3 million goodwill impairment related to the Data and Analytics Services segment in 2023 and a $9.7 million goodwill impairment in 2018. The impairments were primarily attributable to declines in revenue levels and lower future revenue projections.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of goodwill by operating segment for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is as follows:


	Six Months Ended		Twelve Months Ended

As of June 30, 2024, approximately 96,000 square feet of office space is utilized for our sales and recruiting offices, delivery centers, and corporate headquarters. All leases are classified as operating leases. The average initial lease term is 4.5 years. Several leases have an option to renew, at our sole discretion, for an additional term. Our present lease terms range from less than one year to 5.3 years with a weighted average of 3.6 years. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

5.	Commitments and Contingencies

In December 2022, the Company received a demand letter from the attorney of a former employee who resigned from his employment with the Company in November 2022. Among other allegations in the letter, this former employee asserted various employment-related claims against the Company, including a claim of wrongful termination. The Company settled this claim in the third quarter of 2023 and paid a $3.1 million settlement, net of recoveries. There were no professional service fees related to this matter incurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred $0.6 million and $1 million, respectively, of professional service fees related to this matter which was included in Selling, General and Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In the ordinary course of our business, the Company is involved in a number of lawsuits and administrative proceedings. While uncertainties are inherent in the final outcome of these matters, the Company’s management believes, after consultation with legal counsel, that the disposition of these proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

6.	Employee Benefit Plan

The Company provides an Employee Retirement Savings Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), that covers substantially all U.S. based salaried and

W-2

hourly employees. Employees may contribute a percentage of eligible compensation to the Retirement Plan, subject to certain limits under the Code. The Company did not provide for any matching contributions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023.

7.	Stock-Based Compensation

In 2008, the Company adopted a Stock Incentive Plan. This Stock Incentive Plan was amended and restated effective as of May 14, 2024 (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”) and provides that up to 5,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), shall be allocated for issuance to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. Grants under the Plan may be made in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, restricted stock awards or stock awards.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company granted zero restricted share units and 140,000 stock options at a strike price of $8.59 under the Plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted zero restricted share units and 25,000 stock options at a strike price of $10.06.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company granted 29,612 restricted share units and 525,000 stock options at an average strike price of $8.41 under the Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted 19,924 restricted share units and 125,000 stock options at an average strike price of $11.24 under the Plan. As of June 30, 2024 there were 373,000 shares of Common Stock available for grants under the Plan.

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $461,000 and $842,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $1.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 50,719 and 70,643 shares, respectively, related to the grant of restricted share units and the exercise of stock options. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued zero and 17,804 shares, respectively, related to the grant of restricted share units and the exercise of stock options.

In October 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Mastech Digital, Inc. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan”). The Employee Stock Purchase Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code and was approved by the Company’s shareholders to be qualified. On May 15, 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 600,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment upon certain changes in the Company’s capitalization) are available for purchase by eligible employees who become participants in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The purchase price per share is 85% of the lesser of (i) the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the first day of the offering period, or (ii) the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the last day of the offering period.

The Company’s eligible full-time employees are able to contribute up to 15% of their base compensation into the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, subject to an annual limit of $25,000 per person. Employees are able to purchase Company Common Stock at a 15% discount to the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the initial or final trading dates of each

six-month

offering period. Offering periods begin on January 1 and July 1 of each year. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of Employee Stock Purchase Plan share-based payments. The fair value of the

six-month

“look-back” option in the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan is estimated by adding the fair value of 15% of one share of stock to 85% of the fair value of an option on one share of stock. The Company utilized U.S. Treasury yields as of the grant date for its risk-free interest rate assumption, matching the Treasury yield terms to the

six-month

offering period. The Company utilized historical company data to develop its dividend yield and expected volatility assumptions.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were 21,329 shares and 17,890 shares issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at a share price of $6.38 and $8.40, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense related to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 totaled $27,000 and $38,000, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense related to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 totaled $54,000 and $68,000, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. As of June 30, 2024, there were 445,590 shares available for purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

8.	Credit Facility

On July 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, as administrative agent, swing loan lender and issuing lender, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole book-runner, and certain financial institution parties thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for a total aggregate commitment of $53.1 million, consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $40 million and (ii) a $13.1 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan), as more fully described in Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form

8-Ks

filed with the SEC on July 19, 2017, April 25, 2018, October 7, 2020, Exhibit 10.2 to the Form

The Revolver expires in December 2026 and includes swing loan and letter of credit

sub-limits

in the aggregate amount not to exceed $6.0 million for swing loans and $5.0 million for letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolver may be denominated in U.S. dollars or Canadian dollars. The maximum borrowings in U.S. dollars may not exceed the sum of 85% of eligible U.S. accounts receivable and 60% of eligible U.S. unbilled receivables, less a reserve amount established by the administrative agent. The maximum borrowings in Canadian dollars may not exceed the lesser of (i) $10.0 million; and (ii) the sum of 85% of eligible Canadian receivables, plus 60% of eligible Canadian unbilled receivables, less a reserve amount established by the administrative agent.

Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan were required to be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments of $1.1 million through and including the maturity date of October 1, 2024. In August 2022, the Company prepaid $7.6 million of the outstanding term loan with excess cash balances. The final term loan payment of $1.1 million was made on January 3, 2023, taking the outstanding balance to zero.

Borrowings under the Revolver and the Term Loan, which may be made at the Company’s election, bear interest at either (a) the higher of PNC’s prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, plus an applicable margin determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio or (b) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus an applicable margin determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio. The applicable margin on the base rate is between 0.50% and 1.25% on Revolver borrowings and between 1.75% and 2.50% on Term Loan borrowings. The applicable margin on the SOFR is between 1.50% and 2.25% on Revolver borrowings and between 2.75% and 3.50% on Term Loan borrowings. A 20 to

30-basis

point per annum commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver is charged and due monthly in arrears. The applicable commitment fee is determined based upon the Company’s senior leverage ratio.

The Company pledged substantially all of its assets in support of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains standard financial covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants related to the Company’s senior leverage ratio and fixed charge ratio (as defined under the Credit Agreement) and limitations on liens, indebtedness, guarantees, contingent liabilities, loans and investments, distributions, leases, asset sales, stock repurchases and mergers and acquisitions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement.

In connection with securing the commitments under the Credit Agreement and the April 20, 2018, October 1, 2020, December 29, 2021 and December 29, 2023 amendments to the Credit Agreement, the Company paid a commitment fee and incurred deferred financing costs totaling $1,039,000, which were capitalized and are being amortized as interest expense over the life of the Credit Facility. Deferred financing costs of $236,000 and $284,000 (net of amortization) as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively, are presented as long-term assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Revolver totaled zero dollars; and unused borrowing capacity available was approximately $23.8 million and $22.5 million, respectively. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023. On May 9, 2024, the Company issued two standby letters of credit for $162,000 each from PNC Bank to a Vietnam client to secure certain performance and advance payment guarantees made to the client on an existing fixed price Data and Analytics Services assignment. These letters of credit are scheduled to expire on April 23, 2025, but can be extended by the client for an additional

one-year

	$	297		19.4	%	$	(387	)	(16.8	)%

We evaluate deferred income taxes quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. GAAP accounting guidance requires us to assess whether valuation allowances should be established against deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, both positive and negative using a “more likely than not” standard. Our assessment considers, among other things, the nature of cumulative losses; forecast of future profitability; the duration of statutory carry-forward periods and tax planning alternatives. At June 30, 2024, our valuation allowance was comprised of net operating losses in Ireland and the United Kingdom and totaled $466,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we secured a worthless stock deduction for our dissolved Singapore entity, which allowed us to recognize a current tax deduction during the 2024 period and accordingly reverse $162,000 of our valuation allowance against outstanding deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2023, our valuation allowance balance totaled $628,000.

10.	Shareholders’ Equity

On February 8, 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock over a

two-year

period. Repurchases under the program may occur from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, through block purchases or other purchase techniques, or by any combination of such methods, and the program may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not purchase any shares under this program. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 9,222 shares of common stock at an average price of $8.70 per share under this program.

Additionally, the Company makes stock purchases from time to time to satisfy employee tax obligations related to its Stock Incentive Plan. The Company did not purchase any shares to satisfy employee tax obligations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

11.	Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The computation of basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the Company’s net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised. The dilutive effect of stock options was calculated using the treasury stock method.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were 1,568,000 and 1,126,000 anti-dilutive stock options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, all stock options and restricted shares were anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted (loss) per share.

12.	Business Segments and Geographic Information

Our reporting segments are: 1) Data and Analytics Services; and 2) IT Staffing Services.

The Data and Analytics Services segment was acquired through the July 13, 2017, acquisition of the services division of Canada-based InfoTrellis, Inc. This segment is a project-based consulting services business with specialized capabilities in data management and analytics. The business is marketed as “Mastech InfoTrellis” and utilizes a dedicated sales team with deep subject matter expertise. Mastech InfoTrellis has offices in Atlanta, Toronto and London, and a global delivery center in Chennai, India. Project-based delivery reflects a combination of

on-site

resources and offshore resources. Assignments are secured on both a time and material and fixed price basis. In October 2020, we acquired AmberLeaf, a Chicago-based customer experience consulting firm. This acquisition expanded our capabilities in customer experience strategy and managed services offering for a variety of Cloud-based enterprise application across sales, marketing and customer service organizations.

The IT Staffing Services segment offers staffing services in digital and mainstream technologies, engineering services and uses digital methods to enhance organizational learning. These services are marketed using a common sales force and delivered via our domestic and global recruitment centers. While the vast majority of our assignments are based on time and materials, we do have the capabilities to deliver our digital transformation services on a fixed price basis.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU

2023-09,

“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The amendments in this ASU enhance the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures. Additional disclosures include specific rate reconciliation categories; additional disclosure for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold; and federal, state and foreign income taxes paid by individual jurisdiction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its financial statements.

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under consideration by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed standards, management has not yet determined the effect, if any that the implementation of such proposed standards would have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2024 Primentor, Inc. Consulting Agreement

On January 12, 2024, we entered into a consulting services agreement with Primentor, Inc., a California corporation; Phaneesh Murthy (“Murthy”), the owner of Primentor; Srinjay Sengupta (“Sengupta”), a consultant of Primentor; and Sunil Wadhwani and Ashok Trivedi (together the “Founders”), each co-founder and directors of the Company. Under the terms of the consulting services agreement, Primentor will provide the Company with strategic advisory and management consulting services, as well as any other business and organizational strategy services as the Board of Directors of Company may reasonably request from time to time.

The initial term of the consulting services agreement is for a three-year period commencing January 12, 2024, and the Company may request to renew the term for additional successive one-year terms, in which case Primentor and the Company will negotiate to agree upon the scope of the additional services and the amount of additional consulting fees.

As compensation to Primentor, Murthy and Sengupta for providing the services requested by the Company, the Company will provide the following compensation:

Consulting fees to Primentor of $990,000 in year one; $270,000 in year two; and $120,000 in year three, plus reimbursement for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Primentor’s personnel in rendering the services;

Employment-Related Claims Against the Company

In December 2022, the Company received a demand letter from the attorney of a former employee who resigned from his employment with the Company in November 2022. Among other allegations in the letter, this former employee has asserted various employment-related claims against the Company, including a claim of wrongful termination. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company settled this claim for $3.1 million, net of recoveries, under the terms of a confidential settlement agreement. In addition to the settlement amount, we incurred approximately $0.9 million in professional services fees related to this matter during 2023.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred $600,000 and approximately $1.0 million, respectively, of professional services fees related to this matter. Additionally, the Company recorded a $3.1 million loss reserve, net of recoveries, with respect to a settlement reserve. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 20, 2024, no expenses related to this matter were incurred.

Overview:

We are a provider of Digital Transformation IT Services to mostly large and medium-sized organizations.

Our portfolio of offerings includes data management and analytics services, other digital transformation services, such as digital learning services, and IT Staffing Services.

We operate in two reporting segments – Data and Analytics Services and IT Staffing Services. Our data and analytics services are marketed on a global basis under the brand “Mastech InfoTrellis” and are delivered largely on a project basis with on-site and off-shore resources. These data and analytics capabilities and expertise were acquired through our acquisition of InfoTrellis and enhanced and expanded subsequent to the acquisition. In October 2020, we acquired AmberLeaf Partners, Inc. (“AmberLeaf”), a Chicago-based customer experience consulting firm. This acquisition enhanced our capabilities in customer experience strategy and managed services offerings for a variety of Cloud-based enterprise applications across sales, marketing and customer services organizations. Our IT staffing business combines technical expertise with business process experience to deliver a broad range of staffing services in digital and mainstream technologies, as well as other digital transformation services.

Both business segments provide their services across various industry verticals, including financial services, government, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, technology telecommunications and transportation. In our Data and Analytics Services segment, we evaluate our revenues and gross profits largely by service line. In our IT Staffing Services segment, we evaluate our revenues and gross profits largely by sales channel responsibility. This analysis within both our reporting segments is multi-purposed and includes technologies employed, client relationships, and geographic locations.

Data and Analytics:

We provide information regarding our new bookings in our Data and Analytics Services segment, which represents the estimated value of client engagements, including those acquired through acquisitions, as well as renewals and extensions to existing contracts, because we believe doing so provides useful trend information regarding changes in the volume of our new business over time. New bookings can vary significantly quarter to quarter, depending, in part, on the timing of the signing of a small number of large engagements. Among other factors, the types of services and solutions to be delivered, the duration of the engagement and the pace and level of client spending impact the timing of the conversion of new bookings to revenues. In addition, substantially all of our contracts are terminable by the client on short notice, with little or no termination penalties. Information regarding our new bookings is not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of our revenues over time. New bookings involve estimates and judgments. There are no third-party standards or requirements governing the calculation of bookings. We do not update our new bookings for material subsequent terminations or reductions related to bookings originally provided in prior periods.

Economic Trends and Outlook:

Generally, our business outlook is highly correlated to general North American economic conditions, particularly with respect to our IT Staffing Services segment. During periods of increasing employment and economic expansion, demand for our services tends to increase. Conversely, during periods of contracting employment and / or a slowing global economy, demand for our services tends to decline. With economic expansion in 2010 through 2019 activity levels improved. However, as economic conditions strengthened, we experienced increased tightness in the supply side (skilled IT professionals) of our businesses. These supply-side challenges pressured resource costs and, to some extent, gross margins. As we entered 2020, we were encouraged by continued growth in the domestic job markets and expanding U.S. and global economies. However, with the COVID-19 pandemic surfacing in the first quarter of 2020, we realized that economic growth would quickly turn into recessionary conditions, which had a material impact on activity levels in both of our business segments. In 2021, we were encouraged by the global rollout of vaccination programs and signs of economic improvement, however, the proliferation of COVID-19 variants had caused some uncertainty and disruption in the global markets. In 2022 and 2023, COVID-19-related concerns seemed to subside; however, increased inflation, challenges in the financial sector related to increasing interest rates, and concerns about a possible recession created much uncertainty and impacted demand for our services in the second half of 2022 and for the entire year of 2023. While economic conditions in North American have shown signs of improvement during the first half of 2024, a level of uncertainty remains with respect to inflation, the potential of escalations of existing conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine and the outcome of the upcoming U.S. presidential election. It is difficult to predict the impact or duration that these economic pressures may have on our businesses and results of operations during the second half of 2024 and beyond.

In addition to tracking general economic conditions in the markets that we service, a large portion of our revenues is generated from a limited number of clients (see Item 1A, the Risk Factor entitled “Our revenues are highly concentrated, and the loss of a significant client would adversely affect our business and revenues” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023). Accordingly, our trends and outlook are additionally impacted by the prospects and well-being of these specific clients. This “account concentration” factor may result in our results of operations deviating from the prevailing economic trends from time to time.

Within our IT Staffing Services segment, a larger portion of our revenues has come from strategic relationships with systems integrators. Additionally, many large end users of IT staffing services are employing MSPs to manage their contractor spending. Both of these dynamics may pressure our IT staffing gross margins in the future.

Recent growth in advanced technologies (social, cloud, analytics, mobility, automation) is providing opportunities within our IT Staffing Services segment. However, supply side challenges have proven to be acute with respect to many of these technologies.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023:

Revenues:

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $49.5 million, compared to $52.2 million for the corresponding three-month period in 2023. This 5% year-over-year revenue decrease reflected a modest revenue increase in our Data and Analytics Services segment and a 6% decline in our IT Staffing Services segment. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had two clients that each had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 14.9% and Allegis = 10.7%). For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had one client with revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 24.0%). The Company’s top ten clients represented approximately 53% and 55% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30,2024 and 2023, respectively.

Below is a tabular presentation of revenues by reportable segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:


Revenues (Amounts in millions)	Three Months Ended June 30, 2024		Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
Data and Analytics Services	$	8.9	$	8.8
IT Staffing Services		40.6		43.4

Total revenues	$	49.5	$	52.2

Revenues from our Data and Analytics Services segment totaled $8.9 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, which is slightly higher compared to the corresponding period last year, but up approximately 10% from the previous quarter. Improved activity levels and new assignments from existing clients over the last several quarters are starting to have a positive impact on our revenue performance. New bookings in the second quarter of 2024 totaled approximately $9.2 million.

Revenues from our IT Staffing Services segment totaled $40.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $43.4 million during the corresponding 2023 period. This 6% year-over-year decrease reflected lower demand for our services in 2023, partially offset by improvements in activity levels and sequential revenue growth during the first half of 2024. Billable consultants at June 30, 2024 totaled 1,035-consultants, compared to 1,041-consultants one year earlier. During the first half of 2024, we grew our billable consultant-base by 89-consultants. Our average bill rate during the second quarter of 2024 was $81.94 per hour, compared to $76.76 per hour in the corresponding 2023 quarter. The increase in average bill rate was due to higher rates on new assignments during the first half of 2024 and was reflective of the types of skill sets that we deployed. Permanent placement / fee revenues were approximately $0.2 million during the 2024 second quarter, which were in-line with the corresponding 2023 quarter.

Gross Margins:

Gross profits in the second quarter of 2024 totaled $14.0 million, which was $0.4 million higher than the second quarter of 2023 gross profits. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 28.2% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to 26.1% during the same period of 2023. This 210-basis point increase in gross margins reflected higher margins in both of our business segments during the current quarter.

Below is a tabular presentation of gross margin by reporting segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:


Gross Margin	Three Months Ended June 30, 2024			Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
Data and Analytics Services		49.2	%		45.6	%
IT Staffing Services		23.6			22.2

Total gross margin		28.2	%		26.1	%

Gross margins from our Data and Analytics Services segment were 49.2% of revenues during the second quarter of 2024, which represented an increase of 360-basis points compared to the second quarter of 2023. The margin increase reflected strong delivery performances, which benefited project gross margins and a higher utilization rate in the 2024 quarter compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Gross margins from our IT Staffing Services segment were 23.6% in the second quarter of 2024, compared to 22.2% during the corresponding quarter of 2023. This 140-basis point increase was due to (1) higher project gross margins of approximately 60-basis points and (2) lower benefit costs, reflective of lower year-over-year medical claim experience related to our self-insured healthcare program. The 2023 quarter had medical claims that were on the very high-end of our historical average, while the 2024 quarter was an increase from our historical average. It should be noted that medical claims can vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses:

Below is a tabular presentation of operating expenses by expense category for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Subtotal IT Staffing Services	$	8.0	$	7.8

Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets	$	0.7	$	0.7
Employment-related Claim, net of Recoveries		—		3.1

Total SG&A Expenses	$	12.3	$	16.5

SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $12.3 million or 24.8% of total revenues, compared to $16.5 million or 31.6% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Excluding the costs associated with an employment-related claim, net of recoveries, in the 2023 period and the amortization of acquired intangible assets in both periods, SG&A expense as a percentage of total revenues would have been 23.4% and 24.3%, respectively.

Fluctuations within SG&A expense components during the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, included the following:

•

Sales expense was $0.1 million lower in the 2024 period compared to the corresponding 2023 period. The entire decline was related to our Data and Analytics Services segment, which reflected slightly lower staff headcount in the sales organization. Sales expenses in our IT Staffing Services segment were essentially flat compared to the previous year.

•

Operations expenses decreased by $0.2 million in the 2024 period compared to the corresponding 2023 period. The entire decline occurred in our Data and Analytics Services segment due to staff reductions. In our IT Staffing Services segment, operating expenses were essentially flat.

•

General and administrative expenses declined by $0.8 million in the 2024 period compared to the corresponding 2023 period. General and administrative expenses in our Data and Analytics Services segment decreased by $1.0 million due to executive leadership staff declines, lower stock-based compensation expense and lower professional services fees incurred to address an employment-related claim in the 2023 period. In our IT Staffing Services segment, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million largely due to strategic consulting expenses associated with our consulting agreement with Primentor.

•

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $0.7 million in both the 2024 and 2023 periods.

•

Costs associated with an employment-related claim, net of recoveries, totaled $3.1 million in the 2023 period, compared to no expense in the second quarter of 2024.

Other Income / (Expense) Components:

Other Income / (Expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2024, consisted of net interest income of $130,000 and foreign exchange losses of ($14,000). For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Other Income / (Expense) consisted of net interest income of $80,000 and foreign exchange losses of ($30,000). The higher level of interest income was reflective of higher cash balances and higher interest rates in the 2024 period.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit):

Income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $418,000, representing an effective tax rate on pre-tax income of 23.1%, compared to a ($605,000) benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which represented an effective tax rate on pre-tax (loss) of (21.8%). In the 2024 period, our effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a partial reversal of our tax valuation allowance due to earnings generated in two of our foreign subsidiaries during the second quarter. The lower effective benefit rate on 2023’s pre-tax loss largely reflected increases in our tax valuation allowance due to foreign subsidiary losses.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023:

Revenues:

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $96.4 million, compared to $107.3 million for the corresponding six- month period in 2023. This 10% year-over-year revenue decrease reflected a 7% decrease in our Data and Analytics Services segment and an 11% decrease in our IT Staffing Services segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had two clients that each had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 16.1% and Allegis = 10.1%). For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had one client that had revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues (CGI = 24.8%). The Company’s top ten clients represented approximately 52% and 55% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Below is a tabular presentation of revenues by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:


Revenues (Amounts in millions)	Six Months Ended June 30, 2024		Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Data and Analytics Services	$	17.0	$	18.2
IT Staffing Services		79.4		89.1

Total revenues	$	96.4	$	107.3

Revenues from our Data and Analytics Services segment totaled $17.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $18.2 million in the corresponding six-month period last year. The 7% year-over-year decline largely reflected soft revenues during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the corresponding quarter of 2023 due delays in starting new assignments. Order bookings for the first six months of 2024 totaled approximately $19 million, which were slightly higher than the first half of 2023.

Revenues from our IT Staffing Services segment totaled $79.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $89.1 million during the corresponding 2023 period. This 11% decrease largely reflected a lower level of billable consultants starting the year 2024 (946-consultants) compared to billable consultants starting the year 2023 (1,208-consultants) due to a decline in demand for our services in 2023. At June 30, 2024, billable consultants totaled 1,035-consultants, compared to 1,041-consultants at June 30, 2023. During the first six months of 2024, our average bill rate was $80.62 compared to $78.66 in the corresponding period of 2023.

Gross Margins:

Gross profits in the six months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $26.1 million compared to $27.1 million in the corresponding period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 27.1% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to 25.3% during the same period of 2023. This 180-basis point increase largely reflected improvements at both of our business segments.

Below is a tabular presentation of gross margin by reporting segment for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:


Gross Margin	Six Months Ended June 30, 2024			Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Data and Analytics Services		47.9	%		41.9	%
IT Staffing Services		22.7			21.9

Total gross margin		27.1	%		25.3	%

Gross margins from our Data and Analytics Services segment were 47.9% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to 41.9% in the corresponding period of 2023.

Gross margins from our IT Staffing Services segment were 22.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 21.9% during the corresponding period of 2023. This 80-basis point increase was due to higher margins on new assignments in 2024, as well as a favorable medical claim experience related to our self-insured healthcare program in the 2024 period.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses:

Below is a tabular presentation of operating expenses by expense category for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:


SG&A Expenses (Amounts in millions)	Six Months Ended June 30, 2024		Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Data and Analytics Services Segment
Sales and Marketing	$	4.3	$	3.4
Operations		0.3		0.8

Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets	$	1.4	$	1.5
Employment-related Claim, net of Recoveries		—		3.1

Total SG&A Expenses	$	24.8	$	29.4

SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $24.8 million or 25.8% of total revenues, compared to $29.4 million or 27.4% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Excluding the amortization of acquired intangible assets in both periods and the costs associated with an employment-related claim, net of recoveries, in 2023, SG&A expense as a percentage of total revenues would have been 24.3% and 23.1%, respectively.

Fluctuations within SG&A expense components during the first six months of 2024, compared to the first six months of 2023, included the following:

•

Sales expense increased by $0.9 million in the 2024 period, compared to the corresponding 2023 period. The entire increase related to our Data and Analytics Services segment, which was due to higher marketing and event costs and higher sales compensation expense. Sales expenses in our IT Staffing Services segment were flat compared to the previous year.

•

Operations expense decreased by $1.0 million in the 2024 period, compared to the corresponding 2023 period. In our Data and Analytics Services segment, operations expenses decreased $0.5 million due to lower staff and lower variable compensation expense. Operations expenses in our IT Staffing Services segment decreased by $0.5 million and reflected lower recruitment staff and variable expenses during the first quarter of 2024.

•

General and administrative expense decreased by $1.3 million in the 2024 period compared to the corresponding 2023 period. General and administrative expense in our Data and Analytics Services segment decreased by $1.7 million due to executive leadership staff reductions, lower stock-based compensation expense, and lower professional services fees incurred to address an employment-related claim in the 2023 period. In our IT Staffing Services segment, general and administrative expense increased by $0.4 million largely due to strategic consulting expenses associated with our consulting agreement with Primentor.

•

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $0.1 million lower in the 2024 period compared to the corresponding 2023 period, as a portion of our intangible assets became fully amortized in 2024.

•

Costs associated with an employment-related claim, net of recoveries, totaled $3.1 million in the 2023 period, compared to no expense in the corresponding 2024 period.

Other Income / (Expense) Components:

Other Income / (Expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2024, consisted of net interest income of $284,000 and foreign exchange losses of ($44,000). For the six months ended June 30, 2023, Other Income / (Expense) consisted of net interest income of $84,000 and foreign exchange losses of ($87,000). The higher level of interest income was reflective of higher cash balances on hand and higher interest rates in the 2024 period.

Income Tax Expense:

Income tax expense (benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $297,000 representing an effective tax rate on pre-tax income of 19.4% compared to a ($387,000) benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which represented a 16.8% effective benefit rate on pre-tax loss. The favorable effective tax rate in the 2024 period reflected a favorable adjustment to our tax valuation allowance due to the utilization of Singapore tax benefits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Financial Conditions and Liquidity:

As of June 30, 2024, we had no bank debt, cash balances on hand of $20.6 million and approximately $23.8 million of borrowing capacity under our existing credit facility.

Historically, we have funded our organic business needs with cash generated from operating activities. Controlling our operating working capital levels by closely managing our accounts receivable balance is an important element of cash generation. As of June 30, 2024, our accounts receivable “days sales outstanding” (“DSOs”) measurement was 53-days, which was three days lower than at June 30, 2023.

We believe that cash provided by operating activities, cash balances on hand and current availability under our credit facility will be adequate to fund our business needs and support the share repurchase program we announced in February 2023 over the next twelve months, absent any acquisition-related activities.

Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities:

Cash (used in) operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled ($0.1 million) compared to cash provided by operating activities of $13.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Elements of cash flow during the 2024 period were a net income of $1.2 million, non-cash charges of $2.9 million and an increase in operating working capital levels of ($4.2 million). Elements of cash flow during the corresponding 2023 period were net (loss) of ($1.9 million), non-cash charges of $6.4 million and a decrease in operating working capital levels of $8.6 million. The higher non-cash charges in 2023 were due to the reserve for an employment-related claim, net of recoveries. Operating working capital increased in 2024 due to higher accounts receivable balances resulting from our sequential revenue growth and an increase in prepaid and other current assets.

Cash flows (used in) investing activities:

Cash (used in) investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was ($751,000) compared to ($42,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, investing activities consisted of capital expenditures. During the corresponding 2023 period, investing activities included capital expenditures of ($112,000) and the recovery of office lease deposits of $70,000. The increase in capital expenditures in the 2024 period compared to the 2023 period reflected expenditures for laptop replacements and other technology enhancements.

Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities:

Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $378,000 and consisted of proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $322,000, the issuance of common shares related to our Employee Stock Purchase Plan of $136,000, partially offset by the purchase of treasury shares of ($80,000). Cash (used in) financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, totaled ($1.5 million) and included Term Loan debt repayments of ($1.1 million), the purchase of treasury shares under our share repurchase program of ($572,000), partially offset by $150,000 related to proceeds from the issuance of shares of common stock shares under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

Other than $324,000 in outstanding letters of credit issued under our Credit Agreement, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. For further details about the outstanding letters of credit, refer to Note 8 — “Credit Facility” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Inflation:

We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented, although economic uncertainty, including the concerns of our clients and other companies with respect to inflationary conditions in North America and elsewhere, has had and may continue to have an adverse impact on the demand for our services. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to minimize any effects of inflation on our operating results by controlling operating costs and, whenever possible, seek to ensure that billing rates reflect increases in costs due to inflation. However, high levels of inflation may result in higher interest rates which could increase our borrowing costs in the future.

In addition, refer to “Item 1A. Risk factors” in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion about risks that inflation directly or indirectly may pose to our business.

Seasonality:

Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants’ billable hours are affected by national holidays and vacation policies. Accordingly, we generally have lower utilization rates and higher benefit costs during the fourth quarter. Additionally, assignment completions tend to be higher near the end of the calendar year, which largely impacts our revenue and gross profit performance during the subsequent quarter.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards:

Recent accounting pronouncements are described in Note 13 to the accompanying financial statements.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In addition to the inherent operational risks, the Company is exposed to certain market risks, primarily related to changes in interest rates and currency fluctuations.

Interest Rates

As of June 30, 2024, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement — Refer to Note 8 — “Credit Facility” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.

Currency Fluctuations

The reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary in Canada is the U.S. dollar because the majority of its revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars. The functional currencies of the Company’s Indian and European subsidiaries are the local currency of the location of such subsidiary. The results of operations of the Company’s Indian and European subsidiaries are translated at the monthly average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The financial position of the Company’s Indian and European subsidiaries is translated at the current exchange rates at the end of the period, and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within Shareholders’ Equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included as a component of other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and have not been material for all periods presented. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in overall foreign currency rates in the first six months of 2024 would not have had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of our business, we are involved in a number of lawsuits and administrative proceedings. While uncertainties are inherent in the final outcome of these matters, management believes, after consultation with legal counsel, that the disposition of these proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2024.

ITEM 2.

On February 8, 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock over a two-year period. Repurchases under the program may occur from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, through block purchases or other purchase techniques, or by any combination of such methods, and the program may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its Common Stock during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

The

COVID-19

pandemic had a material impact on activity levels in both of our business segments in 2020. This impact was reduced in 2021 because of the global

roll-out

of vaccination programs and signs of improving economic conditions.

COVID-19

related concerns were less impactful on our business in 2022 and 2023. Still, the proliferation of

COVID-19

variants could dis

global markets during 2024 and beyond.
