clients. We believe these actions have us well positioned for
growth and I expect revenue for the second half of 2007 to exceed
revenue levels from the first half of this year.� Second Quarter
and First Half 2007 Financial Performance: Revenue: Revenue for the
second quarter of 2007 was $14.0 million, compared to $15.6 million
in the second quarter of 2006. Consulting revenue from US

in the second quarter of 2006. Reimbursement of expenses was $0.2

Consulting revenue from US government clients was $26.1 million, or

million, or 93% of revenue, in the first half of 2006. Consulting

Margins: Gross profit margins for the second quarter of 2007 were
51%, compared to 54% for the second quarter of 2006. Gross profit
margins for the first half of 2007 were 50%, compared to 51% for
the first half of 2006. The decrease in quarterly and year-to-date
gross margins when compared to prior year is attributable to lower
utilization rates of the Company�s Resultants in 2007. Selling,
General & Administrative (S,G&A): S,G&A costs for the
second quarter of 2007 were $4.3 million, compared to $4.4 million
in the second quarter of 2006. Increases in the use of outside
professional services were offset by savings in executive
compensation compared to prior year. S,G&A costs for the first
half of 2007 were $9.0 million compared to $7.8 million in the
first half of 2006, consisting of a $0.7 million increase for legal
and accounting costs related to the review of the Company�s
historical stock option practices, $0.4 million in other legal and
accounting costs and $0.3 million in other S,G&A expenses,
offset by a $0.2 million savings in executive compensation year
over year. Cash Flow: For the first half of 2007, net cash
increased $1.6 million, compared to a net increase of $2.5 million
for the first half of 2006. For the first half of 2007, net cash
provided by operating activities was $4.9 million, compared to $3.2
million for the first half of 2006. The increase is primarily due
to the collection of accounts receivable balances during the first
quarter of 2007. Net cash used for investing activities of $0.8
million for the first half of 2007 consisted primarily of
improvements to our training facility located inside the Irving, TX
office, compared to $0.2 million for the first half of 2006 for
upgrades to computer hardware and software. Cash used for financing
activities for the first half of 2007 was $2.5 million, consisting
of $0.3 million for the net tax effect of stock issuances and $2.2
million for the payment of dividends. Cash used for financing
activities for the first half of 2006 was $0.5 million, consisting
of $1.1 million in dividends paid offset by $0.6 million in cash
and tax benefit received from option holders upon the exercise of
outstanding stock options. Income Taxes: Income tax expense of $1.0
million for the second quarter of 2007 reflected an effective rate
of 35%, compared to $1.6 million, or an effective rate of 38%, for
the second quarter of 2006, with the decreased effective rate in
2007 being a function of the marginal tax rates applicable to lower
levels of taxable income. Income tax expense of $2.2 million for
the first half of 2007 reflects and effective tax rate of 37%,
compared to $2.4 million and 34% in the first half of 2006. The
reduced effective rate in 2006 was the result of a reduction in the
deferred tax valuation allowance during the first quarter of that
year. Business Development and Backlog: During the second quarter
of 2007, the Company signed $7.1 million in new and extended
business. Total contract signings for the first half of 2007 was
$22.4 million. At June 30, 2007, the Company had contracts totaling
$8.6 million in its backlog, all of which is to be recognized as
revenue in the last half of 2007. Backlog does not include
extensions or option periods, and therefore does not always
