NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and General Information

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Hackett Group, Inc. (“Hackett” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries which the Company is required to consolidate. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 30, 2022, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on March 3, 2023. The consolidated results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

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 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

Segments are defined as components of a company that engage in business activities from which they earn revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company assesses its operating segments under the management approach in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (ASC 280), and has determined that it has three operating segments: Global S&BT, Oracle Solutions and SAP Solutions which are also its reportable segments. See Note 11 “Segment Information and Geographic Data” for detailed segment information.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

For acquisitions accounted for as a business combination, goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired. The Company has organized its operating and internal reporting structure to align with its primary market solutions. In accordance with ASC 280, management made the determination to present three operating segments, three reportable segments and three reporting units as follows: (1) Global S&BT, (2) Oracle Solutions, and (3) SAP Solutions. Global S&BT includes the results of the Company’s strategic business consulting practices; Oracle Solutions includes the results of the Company’s Oracle EPM/ERP and Digital AMS practices; SAP Solutions includes the Company’s SAP applications and related SAP service offerings. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment to which goodwill is assigned. The goodwill has been allocated to the reporting unit based on the reporting unit's relative fair value. The carrying amount of goodwill by reporting unit is as follows (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from providing professional services to its clients. The Company also generates revenue from software licenses, software support and maintenance and subscriptions to its executive and best practices advisory programs. A single contract could include one or multiple performance obligations. For those contracts that have multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company determines the standalone selling price based on the respective selling price of the individual elements when sold separately.

Revenue is recognized when control of the goods and services provided are transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services using the following steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify the performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognize revenue as or when the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations for professional services over time as the related services are provided. The performance obligations related to software support, maintenance and subscriptions to its executive and best practice advisory programs are typically satisfied evenly over the course of the service period. Other performance obligations, such as software licenses, are satisfied at a point in time.

The Company generates revenue under four types of billing arrangements: fixed-fee (including software license revenue); time-and-materials; executive and best practice advisory services; and software sales and software maintenance and support.

In fixed-fee billing arrangements, which would also include contracts with capped fees, the Company agrees to a pre-established fee or fee cap in exchange for a predetermined set of professional services. The Company sets the fees based on its estimates of the costs and timing for completing the engagements. The Company generally recognizes revenue under fixed-fee or capped fee arrangements using a proportionate performance approach, which is based on work completed to-date as compared to estimates of the total services to be provided under the engagement. Estimates of total engagement revenue and cost of services are monitored regularly during the term of the engagement. If the Company’s estimates indicate a potential loss, such loss is recognized in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and reasonably estimable. The customer is invoiced based on the contractual agreement between the parties, typically bi-weekly, monthly or milestone driven, with net thirty-day terms, however client terms are subject to change.

Time-and-material billing arrangements require the client to pay based on the number of hours worked by the Company’s consultants at agreed upon hourly rates. The Company recognizes revenue under time-and-material arrangements as the related services or goods are provided, using the right to invoice practical expedient which allows it to recognize revenue in the amount based on the number of hours worked and the agreed upon hourly rates. The customer is invoiced based on the contractual agreement between the parties, typically bi-weekly, monthly or milestone driven, with net thirty-day terms, however client terms are subject to change.

Advisory services contracts are typically in the form of a subscription agreement which allows the customer access to the Company’s executive and best practice advisory programs. There is typically a single performance obligation and the transaction price is the contractual amount of the subscription agreement. Revenue from advisory services contracts is recognized ratably over the life of the agreements. Customers are typically invoiced at the inception of the contract, with net thirty-day terms, however client terms are subject to change.

The resale of software and maintenance contracts are in the form of SAP America ("SAP") software license or maintenance agreements provided by SAP. SAP is the principal and the Company is the agent in these transactions as the Company does not obtain title to the software and maintenance which is sold simultaneously. The transaction price is the Company’s agreed-upon percentage of the software license or maintenance amount in the contract with the vendor. Revenue for the resale of software licenses is recognized upon contract execution and customer’s receipt of the software. The Company also provides software maintenance on other ERP systems, primarily Oracle. Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognized ratably over the life of the agreements. The customer is typically invoiced at contract inception, with net thirty-day terms, however client terms are subject to change.

Revenue before reimbursements excludes reimbursable expenses charged to clients. Reimbursements, which include travel and out-of-pocket expenses, are included in revenue, and an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses is included in cost of service.

Expense reimbursements that are billable to clients are included in total revenue and are substantially all billed as time-and-material billing arrangements. Therefore, the Company recognizes all reimbursable expenses as revenue as the related services are provided, using the right to invoice practical expedient. Reimbursable expenses are recognized as expenses in the period in which the expense is incurred. Any expense reimbursements that are billable to clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements are recognized in line with the proportionate performance approach.

1. Basis of Presentation and General Information (continued)

The payment terms and conditions in the Company’s customer contracts vary. The agreements entered into in connection with a project, whether time and materials-based or fixed-fee or capped-fee based, typically allow clients to terminate early due to breach or for convenience with 30 days’ notice. In the event of termination, the client is contractually required to pay for all time, materials and expenses incurred by the Company through the effective date of the termination. In addition, from time to time the Company enters into agreements with its clients that limit its right to enter into business relationships with specific competitors of that client for a specific time period. These provisions typically prohibit the Company from performing a defined range of services which it might otherwise be willing to perform for potential clients. These provisions are generally limited to six to twelve months and usually apply only to specific employees or the specific project team.

Differences between the timing of billings and the recognition of revenue are recognized as either contract assets or contract liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized for services performed but not yet billed to clients is recorded as contract assets and is included within accounts receivable and contract assets. Services not yet performed, however billed to the client and uncollected at period end, are recorded as contract assets and are included within accounts receivable and contract assets. Client prepayments are classified as contract liabilities and recognized over future periods as earned in accordance with the applicable engagement agreement. See Note 3 for the accounts receivable and contract asset balances. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $2.8 million and $10.6 million, respectively, of revenue as a result of changes in the contract liability balance, as compared to $3.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2022.

Capitalized Sales Commissions

Sales commissions earned by the Company’s sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. These costs are deferred and then amortized as project revenue is recognized. The Company determined the period of amortization by taking into consideration the customer contract period, which are generally less than 12 months. Commission expense is included in Selling, General and Administrative Costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of deferred commissions, of which $0.4 million and $0.6 million was amortized during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the same periods in 2022, respectively. No impairment loss was recognized relating to the capitalization of deferred commission.

1. Basis of Presentation and General Information (continued)

Practical Expedients

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. The Company does not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component if the expectation at contract inception is such that the period between payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer will be less than one year.

Sales tax collected from customers and remitted to the applicable taxing authorities is accounted for on a net basis, with no impact on revenue.

Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable and contract assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities and contract liabilities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 30, 2022, the carrying amount of each financial instrument approximated the instrument’s respective fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments.

The Company uses significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs as defined in accounting guidance) that it believes market participants would use in pricing debt. The fair value of the debt approximated the carrying amount, using Level 2 inputs, due to the short-term variable interest rates based on market rates.

Impact of Macroeconomic Conditions on the Business

The level of revenue the Company achieves is based on its ability to deliver market leading services and solutions and to deploy skilled teams of professionals quickly. The Company’s results of operations are affected by economic conditions, including macroeconomic conditions and levels of business confidence. Any deterioration in the current macroeconomic environment or economic downturn as a result of weak or uncertain economic conditions due to inflation, high interest rates, national or geopolitical events or other factors impacting economic activity or business confidence could adversely affect the Company's clients' financial condition or outlook which may reduce clients' demand for the Company's services.

2. Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. With regard to common stock subject to vesting requirements and restricted stock units issued to the Company’s employees and non-employee members of its Board of Directors, the calculation includes only the vested portion of such stock and units.

Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the assumed conversion of other potentially dilutive securities during the period.

5. Leases

The Company has operating leases for office space and, to a much lesser extent, operating leases for equipment. The Company’s office leases are between terms of 1 year and 4 years. Rents usually increase annually in accordance with defined rent steps or are based on current year consumer price index adjustments. Some of the lease agreements contain one or more of the following provisions: tenant allowances, rent holidays, lease premiums, and rent escalation clauses. There are typically no purchase options, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. When renewal options exist, the Company generally does not deem them to be reasonably certain to be exercised, and therefore the amounts are not recognized as part of the lease liability nor the right of use asset.

The components of lease expense were as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (in thousands):


Operating lease cost	$	560

Total net lease costs	$	560

The weighted average remaining lease term is 2.9 years. The weighted average discount rate utilized is 4%. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from operating cash flows for its operating leases.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company does not have any additional operating leases that have not yet commenced.

6. Credit Facility

On November 7, 2022, the Company entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders agreed to amend and restate its existing credit agreement, in order to extend the maturity date of the revolving line of credit and provide the Company with an additional $55.0 million in borrowing capacity, for an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million from time to time pursuant to a revolving line of credit (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility matures on November 7, 2027.

The obligations of Hackett under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by active existing and future material U.S. subsidiaries of Hackett (the “U.S. Subsidiaries”) and are secured by substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of Hackett and the U.S. Subsidiaries.

The interest rates per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facility will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate or a Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index ("BSBY") rate, plus an applicable margin percentage. The applicable margin percentage is based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, the applicable margin percentage was 1.50% per annum for the BSBY rate, and 0.75% per annum, for the base rate. The interest rate of the commitment fee as of June 30, 2023 was 0.125%. Interest payments are made monthly.

The Company is subject to certain covenants, including total consolidated leverage, fixed cost coverage and liquidity requirements, each as set forth in the Credit Agreement, subject to certain exceptions. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

8. Shareholders’ Equity

Treasury Stock and Tender Offer

On July 30, 2002, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $5.0 million of the Company’s common stock through its share repurchase program. Since the inception of the repurchase plan, the Board of Directors has approved the repurchase of $287.2 million of the Company’s common stock, $120.0 million of which was approved in 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had affected cumulative purchases under the plan of $273.2 million, leaving $14.0 million available for future purchases.

In December 2022, the Company completed a tender offer through which 4.9 million shares of the Company's common stock were purchased for a total cost, inclusive of transaction related fees, of $116.0 million, or $23.72 per share, which represented 15% of the Company's issued and outstanding stock at the time. The Company used $60.0 million in borrowings from its Credit Facility and cash on hand to fund the tender offer.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any outstanding stock in the open market. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, the Company repurchased 37 thousand shares and 31 thousand shares, respectively, from members of its Board of Directors at an average price per share of $18.96 and $20.50, respectively, for a total cost of $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

There is no expiration of the Company's repurchase authorization. Under the repurchase plan, the Company may buy back shares of its outstanding stock from time to time either on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. The Company holds repurchased shares of its common stock as treasury stock and accounts for treasury stock under the cost method.

Shares purchased under the repurchase plan do not include shares withheld to satisfy withholding tax obligations. These withheld shares are never issued and in lieu of issuing the shares, taxes were paid on the employee’s behalf. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, 6 thousand shares and 168 thousand were withheld and not issued, respectively, for a cost of $0.1 million and $3.6 million, respectively. During the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2022, 4 thousand shares and 130 thousand shares were withheld and not issued, respectively, for a cost of $76 thousand and $2.5 million, respectively.

10. Litigation

The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business not specifically discussed herein. In the opinion of management, the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

11. Segment Information and Geographical Data

The Company has organized its operating and internal reporting structure to align with its primary market solutions. In accordance with ASC 280, the Company determined it has three operating segments and three reportable segments: (1) Global S&BT, (2) Oracle Solutions, and (3) SAP Solutions. Global S&BT includes the results of the Company’s strategic business consulting practices; Oracle Solutions includes the results of the Company’s Oracle EPM/ERP and Digital AMS practices; SAP Solutions includes the Company’s SAP applications and related SAP service offerings. The SAP Solutions reportable segment is the only segment that contains software license sales.

The measurement criteria for segment profit or loss are substantially the same for each reportable segment, excluding any unusual or infrequent items, if any. Segment profit consists of the revenues generated by a segment, less operating expenses that are incurred directly by the segment. Unallocated costs include corporate costs related to administrative functions that are performed in a centralized manner that are not attributable to a particular segment, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, non cash compensation expense and any non recurring transactions. Segment information related to assets has been omitted as the Chief Operating Decision Maker does not receive discrete financial information regarding assets at the segment level.

Revenue. We are a global company with operations in our primary markets located in the United States and Western Europe. Our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies, primarily the U.S. Dollar, British Pound and Euro, and as a result is affected by currency exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency fluctuations did not have a significant impact on comparisons between the second quarter and first six months of 2023 and the comparable periods of 2022. In this MD&A, we discuss revenue based on geographical location of engagement team personnel.

Our Company total revenue was $77.1 million and $148.3 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $75.9 million and $151.6 million in the same periods in 2022, respectively. During the first six months of 2022, we experienced stronger than expected post-Covid pent-up demand that drove strong results. By the middle of 2022, the impact of the increase in interest rates started to disrupt economic growth and resulted in extended client decision making. In both the second quarter and first six months of 2023, one customer accounted for 5% of our total Company revenue and in both the second quarter and first six months of 2022, one customer accounted for 7% of our total Company revenue.

Segment revenue. The Company has three reportable segments: Global Strategy & Business Transformation (Global S&BT), Oracle Solutions and SAP Solutions. Global S&BT includes S&BT Consulting, Benchmarking, Business Advisory Services, Intellectual Property as-a-Service (IPASS) and OneStream offerings. Oracle Solutions and SAP Solutions support the two fundamentally distinct ERP systems: Oracle and SAP.

The following table sets forth total revenue by operating segment, which includes reimbursable expenses related to project travel-related expenses passed through to a client with no associated operating margin (in thousands):


	Quarter Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,		July 1,		June 30,		July 1,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Global S&BT	$	43,632	$	44,530	$	85,967	$	87,167
Oracle Solutions		20,775		19,971		37,943		41,483
SAP Solutions		12,695		11,427		24,421		22,942
Total revenue	$	77,102	$	75,928	$	148,331	$	151,592

Global S&BT total revenue was $43.6 million and $86.0 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $44.5 million and $87.2 million in the same periods of 2022, respectively. This segment has been impacted by slowing economic growth resulting in extended client decision making in our business transformation engagements. Additionally, the 2022 periods experienced the post pandemic demand that we experienced throughout the first half of 2022.

Oracle Solutions total revenue was $20.8 million and $37.9 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $20.0 million and $41.5 million in the same periods of 2022, respectively. The decrease in revenue over the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to the segment coming off of solid 2022 results and rebuilding the pipeline in light of unfavorable macroeconomic conditions as we entered 2023.

SAP Solutions total revenue was $12.7 million and $24.4 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $11.4 million and $22.9 million in the same periods of 2022, respectively. The increase in revenue over the three month and six month periods in 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, were due to higher sales of SAP cloud license deals.

Reimbursements as a percentage of Company total revenue were 2% during both the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to 2% and 1%, in the same periods in 2022, respectively. Reimbursements are project travel-related expenses passed through to a client with no associated operating margin. We have experienced increased client-related travel since the transition to a remote delivery model, however we do not expect reimbursements to return to pre-pandemic levels.

Cost of Service. Cost of service consists of personnel costs before reimbursable expenses, which includes salaries, benefits and incentive compensation for consultants and subcontractor fees, acquisition-related cash, acquisition-related non-cash stock based compensation expense and non-cash stock based compensation expense, and reimbursable expenses which are travel and other expenses passed through to a client and are associated with projects.

Personnel costs before reimbursable expenses increased 2%, to $45.4 million, and decreased 4%, to $88.6 million, for the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $44.7 million and $92.0 million in the same periods of 2022, respectively. The lower costs in the six-month period of 2023 were primarily a result of lower incentive compensation accruals commensurate with Company performance. Personnel costs as a percentage of total Company revenue were 59% and 60% during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to 59% and 61% for the same periods of 2022, respectively.

Non-cash stock based compensation expense, included in personnel costs before reimbursable expenses was $1.6 million and $3.2 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $1.5 million and $3.1 million for the same periods of 2022, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Costs (“SG&A”). SG&A primarily consists of salaries, benefits and incentive compensation for the selling, marketing, administrative and executive employees, non-cash stock based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related costs and various other overhead expenses.

SG&A costs increased 10%, to $17.4 million, and 9%, to $32.9 million, during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $15.9 million and $30.3 million for the same periods of 2022, respectively. This increase in the costs during the second quarter and first six months of 2023 was primarily due to the increased investments in dedicated sales resources for our IP-based offerings in our Global S&BT segment, partially offset by lower incentive compensation commensurate with Company performance. SG&A costs as a percentage of total Company revenue were 23% and 22% during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to 21% and 20% during the same periods in 2022, respectively.

Non-cash stock based compensation expense, included in SG&A, was $1.1 million and $2.1 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $1.2 million and $2.2 million for the same periods, respectively.

Amortization expense, included in SG&A, was $10 thousand and $154 thousand in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively. There was no amortization expense in the first six months of 2023. The amortization expense in 2022 related to the

intangible assets acquired in our acquisitions and the buyout of our partner’s joint venture interest in the CGBS Training and Certification Programs in 2017. The intangible assets related to the acquisitions were fully amortized as of the second quarter of 2022.

Segment Profit. Segment profit consists of the revenue generated by the segment, less the direct costs of revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses that are incurred directly by the segment. Items not allocated to the segment level include corporate costs related to administrative functions that are performed in a centralized manner that are not attributable to a particular segment, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, non cash compensation expense and any non recurring transactions.

Global S&BT segment profit was $13.1 million and $26.9 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $16.3 million and $31.9 million for the same periods in 2022, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to the incremental investments we are making in program development and additional dedicated sales resources for Benchmark, Executive Advisory Market Intelligence and our other IP as-a-service offerings.

Oracle Solutions segment profit was $5.9 million and $8.9 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $4.3 million and $8.8 million for the same periods in 2022, respectively. The increase in the second quarter of 2023 segment profit as compared the same period in the prior year, was primarily due the increase in year over year revenue.

SAP Solutions segment profit was $3.0 million and $5.6 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, as compared to $3.0 million and $5.4 million in the same periods in 2022, respectively.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $0.9 million and $1.8 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2023, as compared to $28 thousand and $56 thousand in 2022, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we drew down $60.0 million on our Credit Facility (as defined below) to fund the tender offer transaction. As of June 30, 2023, we had an outstanding balance of $53.0 million. As of July 1, 2022, we did not have any outstanding debt.

Income Taxes. During the second quarter and first six months of 2023, we recorded $3.1 million and $5.4 million of income tax expense, respectively, related to certain federal, foreign and state taxes which reflected an effective tax rate of 26.5% and 24.2%, respectively. During the second quarter and first six months of 2022, we recorded $3.9 million and $6.8 million of income tax expense, respectively, related to certain federal, foreign and state taxes which reflected an effective tax rate of 27.8% and 24.8%, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023 and December 30, 2022, we had $15.8 million and $30.3 million, respectively, classified as cash on the consolidated balance sheets. We currently believe that available funds (including the cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under our revolving line of credit the "Credit Facility") and cash flows generated by operations will be sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, including working capital, debt payments, lease obligations and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months and beyond. We may decide to raise additional funds in order to fund expansion, to develop new or further enhance products and services, to respond to competitive pressures, or to acquire complementary businesses or technologies. There is no assurance that additional financing would be available when needed or desired. Our cash requirements have not changed materially from those disclosed in Item 7 included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2022.

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended
	June 30,			July 1,
	2023			2022
Cash flows provided by operating activities	$	4,650		$	24,289
Cash flows used in investing activities	$	(2,125	)	$	(2,267	)
Cash flows used in financing activities	$	(16,898	)	$	(6,100	)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.7 million during the first six months of 2023, as compared to $24.3 million during the same period in 2022. In 2023, the net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net income adjusted for non-cash items and an increase in contract liabilities, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and contract assets, a decrease in accrued liabilities and other accruals primarily due to payments of the 2022 incentive compensation and payments to vendors and income tax liabilities. In 2022, the net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net income adjusted for non-cash items, partially offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities and other accruals primarily due to payments of the 2021 incentive compensation and payments to vendors.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $2.1 million during the first six months of 2023, as compared to $2.3 million during the same period in 2022. During both periods, cash flows used in investing activities primarily related to investments for the development of our Hackett Connect Executive Advisory member platform and continued development of our Quantum Leap benchmark and Digital Transformation technologies.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $16.9 million and $6.1 million during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The usage of cash in 2023 primarily related to the net repayment of borrowings of $7.0 million related to our Credit Facility, dividend payments of $6.0 million and the repurchase of $4.4 million of the Company's common stock. The usage of cash in 2022 primarily related to the repurchase of $3.1 million of the Company’s common stock and dividend payments of $3.5 million.

On November 7, 2022, we amended and restated our credit agreement in order to extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility and provide the Company with an additional $55 million in borrowing capacity, for an aggregate amount of up to $100 million. See Note 6, “Credit Facility,” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information. As of June 30, 2023, we had $53.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility, excluding deferred debt costs, leaving us with a capacity of approximately $47.0 million.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As of June 30, 2023, our exposure to market risk related primarily to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate risks.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Credit Facility, which is subject to variable interest rates. Under our prior credit agreement which was amended and restated in November 2022, the interest rates per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facility was, at our option, equal to a base rate for one-, two-, three- or nine-month interest periods chosen by us in each case, plus an applicable margin percentage. A 100-basis point increase in our interest rate under our Credit Facility (Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index) would not have had a material impact on our results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

We face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates as a portion of our revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily the British Pound, the Euro and the Australian Dollar. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information.

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

Frequency of Say on Pay

As previously reported in our Form 8-K filed on May 9, 2023, the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on May 4, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Meeting”). The shareholders voted on the matters set forth in such Form 8-K, including Proposal 3 related to the say-on-frequency advisory vote. Based on consideration of the voting results set forth in Proposal 3 in the Form 8-K, and as was recommended with respect to this proposal by our Board of Directors in the proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that an advisory vote by the shareholders regarding named executive officer compensation as set forth in the proxy statement will be conducted on an annual basis. This disclosure is intended to satisfy the requirements of Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

For a discussion of our potential risks and uncertainties, see the risk factor below and the information under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2022 (the “Annual Report”).

There have been no material changes to any of the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2022.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023 the Company did not repurchase any common stock under the repurchase plan and during the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 37 thousand shares of its common stock under the repurchase plan. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $13.9 million of authorization remaining under the repurchase plan.
