REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Compensation and
Corporate Governance Committee
Thomas Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan
We
have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the
Thomas Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the Plan)
as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and
the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the
year ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Thomas Group, Inc.
401(k) Savings Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related
statement of changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year
ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
Our
audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes at December 31, 2007 is presented for the purpose
of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.
DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following description of the Thomas Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings
Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. For a more complete
description of the Plans provisions, participants should refer to the Summary
Plan Description.
General
The
Plan is a salary deferral plan which was established January 1, 1990, and
amended and restated January 1, 2002 and amended December 20, 2006.
The Plan covers all employees of Thomas Group, Inc. (the Company or the Employer),
excluding hourly and leased employees. The Plan is subject to the applicable
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Plan Administration
The Plan is
administered by the Company. Milliman, Inc. (Milliman) is the Plans
recordkeeper. The Charles Schwab Trust Company (CSTC) holds substantially all
the Plans assets and is the Trustee.
Contributions
Each year, participants may contribute to the Plan,
through periodic payroll deductions, up to 35% of their pre-tax annual
compensation, as defined by the Plan, up to the annual deferral limit allowed
for U.S. federal income taxes, which was $15,500 for 2007. A catch-up provision
allows participants aged 50 by December 31, 2007 to contribute additional
deferred amounts. The catch up limit was $5,000 for 2007. Participants may also
contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined
benefit or contribution plans. Each year the Company may elect to provide a
matching contribution to the Plan based on the amount of participant pre-tax
contributions. The target matching contribution will be in accordance with the
following schedule:

|
|

|

|
Profit Sharing
The Company may
also elect to provide a profit sharing contribution to the Plan. There were no
discretionary profit-sharing contributions in 2007.
Participant Accounts
Each
participants account is credited or charged with: a) all the contributions,
forfeitures of the non-vested portion of terminated participants accounts,
withdrawals and other distributions made to or from
4
such
accounts; and, b) its pro rata portion of the appreciation or depreciation in
the fair market value of each investment. Such appreciation or depreciation
will reflect investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, other
investment transactions, and expenses paid from each specific investment.
Vesting
Participants are
immediately vested in their contributions (including rollovers) plus actual
earnings thereon. Participants vest in employer contributions based on years of
continuous service with the Company, at a rate of 20 percent a year. A
participant is 100% vested after five years of credited service. A participant
is also 100% vested upon reaching age 65 or if employment is terminated by
reason of total and permanent disability or death.
Investment
Options
Upon
enrollment into the Plan, a participant may direct his or her participant
contributions in any whole percentage increment to the Companys common stock
or any of the mutual fund and money market investment options offered by CSTC.
Participants may also direct their contributions into a self-directed brokerage
account available through CSTC. Participants may change the allocation of their
existing funds and future contributions at any time. Employer contributions are
invested in the same percentages as the employee contributions.
Payment
of Benefits
Participants
whose employment terminates for any reason (except retirement, death or
disability) are entitled to receive the vested portion of their account in the
form of a lump sum payment.
Participant
Loans
A
participant may apply to the Plan administrator for a loan under the Plan.
Participants may borrow a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser
of $50,000 or 50 percent of their vested account balance on the date of loan
request. The loans will bear interest equal to the prime rate published in the
Wall Street Journal
on the day of the loan request. Repayments are made through
mandatory payroll deductions, not to exceed five years, unless the loan was to
purchase a home, in which case, repayment is 15 years. Participant loans are collateralized
by the respective participant accounts.
Hardship Withdrawals
Upon demonstrated financial need, as defined in the
Plan, hardship withdrawals are allowed only from the participants cumulative
pre-tax contributions made to the Plan.
Forfeitures
Participants
who terminate employment prior to being fully vested in Company matching
contributions forfeit non-vested amounts. Forfeited non-vested accounts were
approximately $13,481 and $31,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. Forfeitures of a participants employer matching contributions
may be used to either reduce future Company matching and profit-sharing
contributions to the Plan or to pay plan administrative expenses. Forfeitures
of Company profit-sharing contributions are reallocated among all remaining
participants.
5
Administrative
Expenses
The
Company has paid, at its discretion, the administrative expenses of the Plan.
Administrative expenses incurred were approximately $70,000, net of
forfeitures, in 2007.
Tax
Status
The
Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter
dated October 30, 2003, that the Plan is designed in accordance with
applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and therefore
the related trust is exempt from taxation.
2.
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Accounting
The financial
statements and supplemental schedule are prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Valuation
of Investments
Shares
of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which
represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Equity
securities are valued at fair value using quoted market prices. Participant
loans and investments in money market funds are stated at cost which
approximates fair value. Reinvested income, accrued interest and dividends are
reflected as additions to the cost basis of the investments. Investment
transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits
are recorded when paid. Benefits due to participants who have elected to
withdraw from the Plan but have not been paid are deducted from net assets
available for benefits. At December 31, 2007 there were no amounts
allocated to withdrawing participants.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements
in conformity with United
States generally accepted accounting principles as applied to defined
contribution employee benefit plans
requires the Plans management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurement
.
The objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair
value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements.
SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that
require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair
value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair
value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our
future reported financial position.
In February 2007,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of
FASB Statement No. 115
. This statement permits entities to
choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair
value. Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that
elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities applies to all entities
with
6
available-for-sale
and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of
an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early
adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or
before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the
provision of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The adoption of this
statement is not expected to have a material effect on our financial
statements.

PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Party-in-interest
investments held by the Plan include 29,655 and 25,766 shares of Thomas Group, Inc.
common stock at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair market
value of this Plan investment was $220,337 and $387,521 at December 31,
2007 and 2006, respectively. Dividend income earned on the Thomas Group, Inc.
common stock was $11,642 for the year ended December 31, 2007.
7
Participant loans held by
the Plan totaled $47,736 and $59,978 at December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. New loans to participants totaled $52,789 during the year ended December 31,
2007 and principal payments totaling $65,031
were applied against the outstanding loan balances.
Certain Plan investments
are shares of mutual funds managed by The Charles Schwab Trust Company. The
Charles Schwab Trust Company is the trustee as defined by the Plan and,
therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
5.
PLAN TERMINATION
The Company has the right
under the Plan agreement to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of
ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants become 100% vested in
their accounts. A partial termination
occurred in 2008. See footnote.
6
.
PLAN AMENDMENT
In an amendment dated December 20,
2006, the Plan was amended to modify the definition of compensation, modify
specific portions of nondiscrimination testing, increase participants maximum
contribution levels, remove restrictions on employer matching contributions,
and make other changes required to keep the Plan in compliance with applicable
IRS rules. Effective January 1, 2006 under this amendment, the Plan was
amended to modify the nondiscrimination testing requirements related to those
participants both under the age of 21 and credited with at least one year of
service. Also effective January 1, 2006, were statutory changes to the
Plan to reflect the final regulations for 401(k) plans issued by the IRS
in December 2004. Effective January 1,
2007 under this amendment, the definition of compensation will include base
wages and overtime and exclude bonuses. During
2006, bonuses paid to participants were subject to each participants contribution
withholding percentages. Other modifications to the plan under this amendment
effective January 1, 2007 include a change in the maximum participant
contribution, as a percentage of compensation, to 100% of compensation, subject
to IRS limits, from 35% prior to the amendment and the removal of all restrictions
limiting employer matching contributions to a specific percentage of compensation.
Effective December 20,
2005, the Plan was amended to require a mandatory distribution for persons
reaching the age of 70 ½ who are not employees. Participants reaching the age
of 70 ½ and currently employed may defer payments until retirement.
6
.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Subsequent to year end, the Company announced
a reduction in force affecting approximately one-third of their employees as a
part of a restructuring plan approved by its board of directors, resulting in a
partial termination of the Plan.
In general, a partial termination is deemed
to occur when an employer-initiated action results in a significant decrease in
plan participation. The law requires
that all affected participants be fully vested in their account balance,
including employer contributions, upon the date a partial plan
termination. As a result, sixteen
participants with approximately $21,300 in unvested balances were immediately
fully vested in these amounts on their date of termination.
