Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form-10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements relate to our expectations for future events and time periods. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed to be forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding:
 
•future financial performance and growth targets or expectations;
•market and industry trends and developments; and

These forward-looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our current expectations, forecasts and assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. Future performance cannot be ensured. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include:
 
•the availability of field talents’ compensation insurance coverage at commercially reasonable terms;
•the availability of qualified field talent;
•compliance with federal, state and local labor and employment laws and regulations and changes in such laws and regulations;
•the ability to compete with new competitors and competitors with superior marketing and financial resources;

•the impact of outstanding indebtedness on the ability to fund operations or obtain additional financing;
•the ability to leverage the benefits of recent acquisitions and successfully integrate newly acquired operations;

•adverse changes in the economic conditions of the industries or markets that we serve;
•disturbances in world financial, credit, and stock markets;
•unanticipated changes in regulations affecting the company’s business;
•a decline in consumer confidence and discretionary spending;
•the general performance of the U.S. and global economies;
•continued or escalated conflict in the Middle East or elsewhere; and
•other risks referenced from time to time in our past and future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any events or circumstances, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions or otherwise, after the date hereof.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
BG Staffing, Inc. is a national provider of workforce solutions that operates, along with its wholly owned subsidiaries BG Staffing, LLC, B G Staff Services Inc., BG Personnel, LP, BG Finance and Accounting, Inc., BG California IT Staffing, Inc., BG California Multifamily Staffing, Inc., BG California Finance & Accounting Staffing, Inc., EdgeRock Technology Holdings, Inc. and EdgeRock Technologies, LLC (collectively, the “Company”), primarily within the United States of America in three industry segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial.

The Real Estate segment provides office and maintenance field talent to various apartment communities and commercial buildings in 29 states, via property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations. Our Real Estate segment operates through two divisions, BG Multifamily and BG Talent.
 
The Professional segment provides skilled field talent on a nationwide basis for information technology (“IT”) and finance, accounting, legal and human resource client partner projects. Our Professional segment operates through various divisions including Extrinsic, American Partners, Donovan & Watkins, Vision Technology Services, Zycron, Smart Resources, L.J. Kushner & Associates, and EdgeRock Technology Partners.

The Light Industrial segment provides field talent primarily to manufacturing, distribution, logistics, and call center client partners needing a flexible workforce in 7 states. Our Light Industrial segment operates through our InStaff division.
 
Our business experiences seasonal fluctuations. Our quarterly operating results are affected by the number of billing days in a quarter, as well as the seasonality of our client partners’ business. Demand for our Real Estate staffing services typically increase in the second and is highest during the third quarter of the year due to the increased turns in multifamily units during the summer months when schools are not in session. Demand for our Light Industrial staffing services typically increases during the third quarter of the year and peaks in the fourth quarter due to increases in the demand for holiday help. Overall demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months as well as fluctuations in client partner demand. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.

The Company has adjusted, and continues to monitor and change, its operations in response to a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) in all of its segment, client partner, and Home Office locations. The extent of the impact from the outbreak on its operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, its impact on the Company's client partners and the range of governmental and community reactions to the pandemic, which are uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and operating results of the Company as of and for the respective periods. However, these operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full fiscal year or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, management of the Company believes, to the best of its knowledge, that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Company has determined that there were no subsequent events that would require disclosure or adjustments to the accompanying consolidated financial statements through the date the financial statements were issued. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

BG Staffing, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Fiscal Periods
 
The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal periods for the consolidated financial statements included herein are as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, and include the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019, referred to herein as Fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2019 financial statements to conform with the 2020 presentation.

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

The COVID-19 pandemic is already having a significant impact on our economy as a result of stay-at-home orders and business closures designed to stop the spread of the virus. In light of the currently unknown ultimate duration and severity of COVID-19, we face a greater degree of uncertainty than normal in making the judgments and estimates needed to apply the Company’s significant accounting policies. As COVID-19 continues to develop, management may make changes to these estimates and judgments over time, which could result in meaningful impacts to the Company’s financial statements in future periods. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

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

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

Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Concentration of credit risk is limited due to the Company's diverse client partner base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographic locations nationwide. No single client partner accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 or revenue for the twenty-six week periods ended June 28, 2020 (“Fiscal 2020”) and June 30, 2019 (“Fiscal 2019”). Geographic revenue in excess of 10% of the Company's consolidated revenue in Fiscal 2020 and the related percentage for Fiscal 2019 was generated in the following areas:

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

Accounts Receivable
 
The Company extends credit to its client partners in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable represents unpaid balances due from client partners. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for expected losses resulting from client partners’ non-payment of balances due to the Company. The Company’s determination of the allowance for uncollectible amounts is based on management’s judgments and assumptions, including general economic conditions, portfolio composition, prior loss experience, evaluation of credit risk related to certain individual client partners and the Company’s ongoing examination process. Receivables are written off after they are deemed to be uncollectible after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of COVID-19 on expected credit losses.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are as follows:

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $3.9 million and $2.8 million at June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, respectively.

Deposits
 
The Company maintains guaranteed costs policies for workers' compensation coverage in Texas, Washington, and Ohio and minimal loss retention coverage for team members and field talent in the Light Industrial segment and its other non-Texas workforce. Under these policies, the Company is required to maintain refundable deposits of $3.7 million and $3.6 million, which are included in Deposits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company capitalizes direct costs incurred in the development of internal-use software. Cloud computing implementation costs incurred in hosting arrangements are capitalized and reported as a component of other assets. All other internal-use software development costs are capitalized and reported as a component of computer software within intangible assets.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. There were no impairments during Fiscal 2020 or Fiscal 2019.

Leases
 
The Company leases all their office space through operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2025. Many of the lease agreements obligate the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance and certain maintenance costs, which are accounted for separately. Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements contain renewal provisions from 1 to 10 years, exercisable at the Company's option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

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

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

Intangible Assets
 
The Company holds intangible assets with indefinite and finite lives. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, ranging from three to ten years, based on a pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective intangible asset is realized.

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

The Company capitalizes purchased software and internal payroll costs directly incurred in the modification of software for internal use. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed in the period incurred.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company annually evaluates the remaining useful lives of all intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding COVID-19 and its impact on each of the reporting units. Further, the Company assessed the current market capitalization, forecasts and the amount in the 2020 impairment test. As a result of the certain business developments and changes in the Company's long-term projections, the Company concluded a triggering event had occurred that required an interim impairment assessment to be performed. The qualitative assessment thresholds were met on all reporting units except the finance and accounting group. The Company calculated the quantitative impairment test of the finance and accounting group using the relief from royalty method for the indefinite-lived intangible assets and residual method for the definite-lived intangible assets by asset group. In the professional segment, the Company recognized a $3.7 million trade name impairment loss and a $3.5 million client partner list impairment loss during the thirteen week periods ended June 28, 2020.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary. If the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value for one or more reporting units is greater than their carrying value, the Company may use a qualitative assessment for the annual impairment test. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding COVID-19 and its impact on each of the reporting units. As a result of the certain business developments and changes in the Company's long-term projections, the Company concluded a triggering event had occurred that required an interim impairment assessment to be performed. The qualitative assessment thresholds were met on all reporting units except the finance and accounting group. The Company calculated the quantitative impairment test of the

finance and accounting group using the discounted cash flow method and concluded there was no goodwill impairment loss during the thirteen week periods ended June 28, 2020. Due to the impairment of the noted above, the carrying value of the finance and accounting reporting unit is negative and $2.4 million of goodwill is allocated to the finance and accounting reporting unit.

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

The Company had obligations, to be paid in cash, related to its acquisitions if certain operating and financial goals were met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using expected cash flows and present value technique. The fair value calculation of the expected future payments uses a discount rate commensurate with the risks of the expected cash flow. The resulting discount is amortized as interest expense over the outstanding period using the effective interest method.
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company derives its revenues from three segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial. The Company provides workforce solutions and placement services. Revenues are recognized when promised services are delivered to client partners, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues as presented on the consolidated statements of operations represent services rendered to client partners less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in revenues, and the related amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in cost of services.

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

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

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

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

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

Refer to Note 13 for disaggregated revenues by segment.

Payment terms in the Company's contracts vary by the type and location of its client partner and the services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. There were no unsatisfied performance obligations as of June 28, 2020. There were no revenues recognized during the twenty-six week period ended June 28, 2020 related to performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods. There are no contract costs capitalized. The Company did not recognize any contract impairments during the twenty-six week period ended June 28, 2020.

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

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

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the respective periods:
  Thirteen Weeks Ended Twenty-six Weeks Ended
  June 28,
2020 		June 30,
2019 		June 28,

Income Taxes

The effective tax rates of 25.9% and 22.8% for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 28, 2020, respectively, and 22.8% for thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2019 were primarily due to state taxes offset by the Work Opportunity Tax Credit in Fiscal 2019 and Fiscal 2020 and the non-deductibility of transaction costs related to the EdgeRock acquisition in Fiscal 2020.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. As of June 28, 2020, the Company has a $6.9 million net operating loss carry forward from the 2020 EdgeRock acquisition with no expiration date.
 
When appropriate, the Company will record a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits that may not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is appropriate, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, based in part upon management’s judgments regarding future events and past operating results. 
 
The Company recognizes any penalties when necessary as part of selling, general and administrative expenses. As of June 28, 2020, goodwill of $25.2 million is deductible for tax purposes.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which provides guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the Step 2 procedure from the goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning with the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company adopted this ASU in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) contract modifications on financial reporting, caused by reference rate reform. The new guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is still evaluating the impact, but does not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 7 - DEBT
 
On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), maturing July 16, 2024, with BMO, as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount up to $35 million. The Credit Agreement also provided for a term loan commitment (the “Term Loan”) permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $30 million with principal payable quarterly, based on an annual percentage of the original principal amount as defined in the Credit Agreement, all of which has been funded. The Company may from time to time, with a maximum of two, request an increase in the aggregate Term Loan by $40 million, with minimum increases of $10 million. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company also pays an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility and Term Loan.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Company is subject to a maximum Leverage Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 28, 2020.

On February 3, 2020, the Company borrowed $18.5 million on the Term Loan in conjunction with the closing of the EdgeRock acquisition. On April 6, 2020, the Company borrowed the remaining $4.0 million on the Term Loan and the proceeds were used to pay down the Revolving Facility.

Letter of Credit

In March 2020, in conjunction with the 2020 EdgeRock acquisition, the Company entered into a standby letter of credit arrangement, which expires December 31, 2024, for purposes of protecting a lessor against default on lease payments. As of June 28, 2020, the Company had a maximum financial exposure from this standby letter of credit totaling $0.1 million, all of which is considered usage against the Revolving Facility. The Company has no history of default, nor is it aware of circumstances that would require it to perform under any of these arrangements and believes that the resolution of any disputes that might arise in the future would not materially affect the Company's consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded in respect to these arrangements as of June 28, 2020.

Line of Credit

At June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, $10.3 million and $20.3 million, respectively, was outstanding on the revolving facilities. Average daily balance for the thirteen week periods ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $13.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively. Average daily balance for the twenty-six week periods ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $16.1 million and $12.5 million, respectively.

Cash Flow Hedge

In April 2020, the Company entered into a pay-fixed/receive-floating interest rate swap agreement with BMO that reduces the floating interest rate component on the Term Loan obligation. The $25.0 million notional amount was effective on June 3, 2020 and designed as a cash flow hedge on the underlying variable rate interest payments against a fixed interest rate that terminates on June 1, 2023. In accordance with cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the Company has determined that the hedge is perfectly effective using the change-in-variable-cash-flow method.

The unrealized loss associated with the change in the fair value of the effective portion of the hedging instrument is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company expects to reclassify the interest rate swap from accumulated other comprehensive loss against interest expense in the same period in which the hedge transaction affects earnings. Hedge effectiveness is tested quarterly. As of June 28, 2020, the instrument was perfectly effective and no amounts were reclassed from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income in the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019. See Note 8 for location on the balance sheet.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy established prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:
 
Level 1 - Observable inputs - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

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

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs - includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.
 
The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy:
Amounts Recorded at Fair Value    Financial Statement Classification    Fair Value
Hierarchy  		  June 28,
2020 		December 29,

Interest rate swap Other long-term liabilities Level 2 $ 171,723    $ —   
Contingent consideration, net   Contingent consideration, net - current and long-term   Level 3 $ 2,271,173    $ 2,174,378   

The changes in the Level 2 fair value measurements from December 29, 2019 to June 28, 2020 relates to entering into an interest rate swap agreement with BMO. Key inputs in determining the fair value of the interest rate swap as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 are quoted prices from BMO (See Note 7).

The changes in the Level 3 fair value measurements from December 29, 2019 to June 28, 2020 relates to accretion. Key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 included the discount rate of 7.5% as well as management's estimates of future sales volumes and EBITDA.

NOTE 9 - CONTINGENCIES
 
The Company is engaged from time to time in legal matters and proceedings arising out of its normal course of business. The Company establishes a liability related to its legal proceedings and claims when it has determined that it is probable that the Company has incurred a liability and the related amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that an obligation is reasonably possible, the Company will, if material, disclose the nature of the loss contingency and the estimated range of possible loss, or include a statement that no estimate of the loss can be made.

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

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019. Comparative segment revenues and related financial information are discussed herein and are presented in Note 13 to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. See “Forward Looking Statements” on page 3 of this report and “Risk Factors” included in our filings with the SEC, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, for a description of important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected results.
 
Overview
 
We are a leading national provider of professional workforce solutions and have completed a series of acquisitions including the acquisition of BG Personnel, LP and B G Staff Services Inc. in June 2010, and substantially all of the assets of JNA Staffing, Inc. in December 2010, Extrinsic, LLC in December 2011, American Partners, Inc. in December 2012, InStaff Holding Corporation and InStaff Personnel, LLC in June 2013, D&W Talent, LLC in March 2015, Vision Technology Services, Inc., Vision Technology Services, LLC, and VTS-VM, LLC in October 2015, Zycron, Inc. in April 2017, Smart Resources, Inc. and Accountable Search, LLC in September 2017, and LJK in December 2019, and 100% of the equity of EdgeRock in February 2020. We operate within three industry segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial. We provide services to client partners primarily within the United States of America. We now operate through 89 branch offices and 12 on-site locations located across 44 states and D.C.

The Real Estate segment provides office and maintenance field talent to various apartment communities and commercial buildings in 29 states, via property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations. Our Real Estate segment operates through two divisions, BG Multifamily and BG Talent.
 
The Professional segment provides skilled field talent on a nationwide basis for information technology (“IT”) and finance, accounting, legal and human resource client partner projects. Our Professional segment operates through various divisions including Extrinsic, American Partners, Donovan & Watkins, Vision Technology Services, Zycron, Smart Resources, L.J. Kushner & Associates, and EdgeRock Technology Partners.
 
The Light Industrial segment provides field talent primarily to manufacturing, distribution, logistics, and call center client partners needing a flexible workforce in 7 states. Our Light Industrial segment operates through our InStaff division.

Our business experiences seasonal fluctuations. Our quarterly operating results are affected by the number of billing days in a quarter, as well as the seasonality of our client partners’ business. Demand for our Real Estate staffing services typically increase in the second and is highest during the third quarter of the year due to the increased turns in multifamily units during the summer months when schools are not in session. Demand for our Light Industrial staffing services typically increases during the third quarter of the year and peaks in the fourth quarter due to increases in the demand for holiday help. Overall demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months as well as fluctuations in client partner demand. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.
Impact of the recent coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19")

We continue to observe the negative impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our consolidated operating results, our candidate and field talent supply chain, and our client partners demand in all segments. We expect that the social distancing measures, the reduced operational status of our client partners, reductions in production at certain client partners facilities, and general business uncertainty will continue to effect demand in all our segments.

During this uncertain time, our critical priorities are the health and safety of our team members, field talent, candidates and client partners. Starting in March 2020, we took several cost containment and liquidity actions, which we do not believe have materially adversely impacted our internal controls, financial reporting systems or our operations.

Our business, results of operations, and financial condition have been, and may continue to be, adversely impacted in material respects by COVID-19 and by related government actions (including declared states of emergency and quarantine, “shelter in place” orders, or similar orders), non-governmental organization recommendations, and public perceptions, all of which have led and may continue to lead to disruption in global economic and labor markets. These effects have had a significant impact on our business, including reduced demand for our services and workforce solutions, early terminations or reductions in projects, and hiring freezes, and a shift of a majority of our workforce to remote operations, all of which have
24

contributed to a decline in revenues and other significant adverse impacts on our financial results. Other potential impacts of COVID-19 may include continued or expanded closures or reductions of operations with respect to our client partners’ operations or facilities, the possibility our client partners will not be able to pay for our services or workforce solutions, or that they will attempt to defer payments owed to us, either of which could materially impact our liquidity, the possibility that the uncertain nature of the pandemic may not yield the increase in certain of our workforce solutions that we have historically observed during periods of economic downturn, and the possibility that various government-sponsored programs to provide economic relief may be inadequate. Further, we may continue to experience adverse financial impacts, some of which may be material, if we cannot offset revenue declines with cost savings through expense-related initiatives, human capital management initiatives, or otherwise. As a result of these observed and potential developments, we expect our business, results of operations, and financial condition to continue to be negatively affected.

We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our team members, field talent, client partners, and stockholders. The potential effects are not clear for any such alterations or modifications on our business, our client partners, candidates, vendors, or on our financial results.

Real Estate Revenues: Real Estate revenues decreased approximately $12.6 million (51.7%), due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease was due to a 53.7% decrease in billed hours, which was offset by a 4.1% increase in average bill rate. Revenue from new offices was $0.6 million.
 
Professional Revenues: Professional revenues increased approximately $5.3 million (17.0%), primarily from LJK and EdgeRock acquisitions, which contributed $9.8 million of new revenues. The remaining professional group decreased $4.5 million, due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The overall increase was affected by a 20.7% increase in average bill rate, which was partially offset by $0.6 million of a decrease in permanent placements and 0.6% decrease in billed hours.

Light Industrial Revenues: Light Industrial revenues decreased approximately $4.0 million (21.8%), due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The overall revenue decrease was affected by a 27.1% decrease in billed hours, which was offset by an 5.6% increase in average bill rate.

Professional Gross Profit: Professional gross profit increased approximately $1.6 million (18.6%) consistent with the increase in revenue, primarily from LJK and EdgeRock acquisitions, which contributed $3.0 million of gross profit. The overall increase in gross profit was affected by a 21.6% increase in average spread.

Light Industrial Gross Profit: Light Industrial gross profit decreased approximately $0.7 million (24.2%) in line with decreased revenue which was offset by a 3.7% increase in average spread.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $0.1 million (0.5%), primarily related from LJK and EdgeRock acquisitions, which contributed $2.7 million of new expense that was offset by reduced compensation costs from the decline in gross profit and by many of our actions taken starting in March related to the COVID-19 pandemic to reduce actual and planned operating costs as detailed in the following table.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization charges increased approximately $0.2 million (19.9%). The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to the Professional segment related to the 2019 LJK and 2020 EdgeRock acquisitions.

Impairment loss: As a result of the certain business developments and changes in the Company's long-term projections, the Company calculated the quantitative impairment test of the finance and accounting group using the relief from royalty method for the indefinite-lived intangible assets and residual method for the definite-lived intangible assets by asset group. In the professional segment. The Company recognized a $3.7 million trade name impairment loss and a $3.5 million client partner list impairment loss.
 
 Interest Expense, net: Interest expense, net decreased $0.1 million (13.3%) primarily due to the recording of annual interest received from our workers compensation loss retention program in the second quarter 2020 that was received in the first quarter 2019.

Income Taxes: We recorded an income tax benefit of $1.7 million primarily due to lower pre-tax 2020 income, intangible impairment losses, and the Work Opportunity Tax Credit which resulted in a lower 2020 effective rate.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization charges increased approximately $0.4 million (17.4%). The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to the Professional segment related to the 2019 LJK and 2020 EdgeRock acquisitions.

Impairment loss: As a result of the certain business developments and changes in the Company's long-term projections, the Company calculated the quantitative impairment test of the finance and accounting group using the relief from royalty method for the indefinite-lived intangible assets and residual method for the definite-lived intangible assets by asset group. In the professional segment. The Company recognized a $3.7 million trade name impairment loss and a $3.5 million client partner list impairment loss.

Interest Expense, net: Interest expense, net was flat due to the increased borrowings under our credit agreement and decrease in interest income from our workers compensation loss retention program that were offset by decreases in the deferred financing fees and unused fee.
 
Income Taxes: We recorded an income tax benefit of $1.0 million primarily due to lower pre-tax 2020 income and intangible impairment losses, which were partially offset by non-deductible fees related to the 2020 EdgeRock transaction.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
We present Adjusted EBITDA (defined below), a measure that is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”), in this Quarterly Report to provide investors with a supplemental measure of our operating performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by us to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under GAAP can provide alone. Our board and management also use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expected performance and for evaluating on a quarterly and annual basis actual results against such expectations, and as a performance evaluation metric in determining achievement of certain compensation programs and plans for our management. In addition, the financial covenants in our credit agreement are based on EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement.
 
We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, intangible impairment losses, transaction fees, and the non-capital information technology improvement project (“IT roadmap”) and certain non-cash expenses such as share-based compensation expense. Omitting interest, taxes and the other items provides a financial measure that facilitates comparisons of our results of operations with those of companies having different capital structures. Since the levels of indebtedness and tax structures that other companies have are different from ours, we omit these amounts to facilitate investors’ ability to make these comparisons. Similarly, we omit depreciation and amortization because other companies may employ a greater or lesser amount of property and intangible assets. We also believe that investors, analysts and other interested parties view our ability to generate Adjusted EBITDA as an important measure of our operating performance and that of other companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income for the periods indicated as a measure of our performance. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
 
The use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from, or as an alternative to, GAAP measures such as net (loss) income. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity under GAAP or otherwise, and is not an alternative to cash flow from continuing operating activities. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by the expenses that are excluded from that term or by unusual or non-recurring items. The limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) it does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (iii) it does not reflect income tax payments we may be required to make; and (iv) it does not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments associated with indebtedness.
 
To properly and prudently evaluate our business, we encourage you to review our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report and the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA from net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, set forth in the following table. All of the items included in the reconciliation from net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items or (ii) items that management does not consider in assessing our on-going operating performance. In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors may find it useful to assess our comparative operating performance because the measures without such items are less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges and more reflective of other factors that affect operating performance. In the case of the other items that management does not consider in assessing our on-going operating performance, management believes that investors may find it useful to assess our operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact may not reflect ongoing operating performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our working capital requirements are primarily driven by field talent payments, tax payments and client partner accounts receivable receipts. Since receipts from client partners lag payments to field talent, working capital requirements increase substantially in periods of growth.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”), that provides for a revolving credit facility maturing July 16, 2024 (the “Revolving Facility”). Our primary uses of cash are payments to field talent, team members, related payroll liabilities, operating expenses, capital expenditures, cash interest, cash taxes, dividends, contingent consideration and debt payments. We believe that the cash generated from operations, together with the borrowing availability under our Revolving Facility, will be sufficient to meet our normal working capital needs for at least the next twelve months, including investments made, and expenses incurred, in connection with opening new branches throughout the next year. Our ability to continue to fund these items may be affected by general economic, competitive and other factors, many of which are outside of our control. If our future cash flow from operations and other capital resources are insufficient to fund our liquidity needs, we may be forced to obtain additional debt or equity capital or refinance all or a portion of our debt.
 
While we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet our current operating requirements and expansion plans, we may elect to pursue additional growth opportunities within the next year that could require additional debt or equity financing. If we are unable to secure additional financing at favorable terms in order to pursue such additional growth opportunities, our ability to pursue such opportunities could be materially adversely affected.
 
The Company has an effective Form S-3 shelf registration statement allowing for the offer and sale of up to approximately $13 million of common stock. There is no guarantee that we will be able to consummate any offering on terms we consider acceptable or at all.

During this period of uncertainty of volatility related to COVID-19, we will continue to monitor our liquidity, particularly payments from our client partners.

A summary of our operating, investing and financing activities are shown in the following table:
  Twenty-six Weeks Ended
  June 28,
2020 		June 30,
2019
  (dollars in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 15,102    $ 9,162   
Net cash used in investing activities (23,577)   (674)  
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities 8,475    (8,488)  
Net change in cash and cash equivalents $ —    $ —   
 
Operating Activities
 
Cash provided by operating activities consists of net (loss) income adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, intangible impairment losses, interest expense on contingent consideration payable, and the effect of working capital changes. The primary drivers of cash inflows and outflows are accounts receivable and accrued payroll and expenses.

During Fiscal 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $15.1 million, an increase of $5.9 million compared with $9.2 million for Fiscal 2019. This increase is primarily attributable to payments on accounts receivable, intangible impairment losses, and reduced accrued payroll.

 Investing Activities
 
Cash used in investing activities consists primarily of cash paid for businesses acquired and capital expenditures.
 
In Fiscal 2020, we paid $21.7 million in connection with the EdgeRock acquisition and we made capital expenditures of $1.9 million mainly related to software and computer equipment purchased in the ordinary course of business and for the IT roadmap. In Fiscal 2019, we made capital expenditures of $0.7 million mainly related to computer equipment purchased in the ordinary course of business.
 
Financing Activities
 
Cash flows from financing activities consisted principally of borrowings and payments under our credit agreement, payment of dividends and contingent consideration paid.

For Fiscal 2020, we borrowed $22.5 million on the Term Loan, described below, to fund the EdgeRock acquisition, we reduced $10.1 million on our Revolving Facility, and paid $3.6 million in cash dividends on our common stock. For Fiscal 2019, we paid down $10.1 million in principal payments on our term loan, we paid $6.1 million in cash dividends on our common stock, and we borrowed on our revolving line of credit by $7.7 million.

32


Credit Agreements

On July 16, 2019, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), maturing July 16, 2024, with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”), as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) permitting us to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount up to $35 million. The Credit Agreement also provided for a term loan commitment (the “Term Loan”) permitting us to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $30 million with principal paid quarterly, based on an annual percentage of the original principal amount as defined in the Credit Agreement, all of which has been funded. We may from time to time, with a maximum of two, request an increase in the aggregate Term Loan by $40 million, with minimum increases of $10 million. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all our tangible and intangible property. The Credit Agreement bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). We also pay an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility and Term Loan.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants, including certain limitations on our ability to pay cash dividends. We are subject to a maximum Leverage Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement.

In April 2020, we entered into a pay-fixed/receive-floating interest rate swap agreement with BMO that reduces the floating interest rate component on the Term Loan obligation. The $25.0 million notional amount was effective on June 3, 2020 and designed as a cash flow hedge on the underlying variable rate interest payments against a fixed interest rate that terminates on June 1, 2023. In accordance with cash flow hedge accounting treatment, we have determined that the hedge is perfectly effective using the change-in-variable-cash-flow method.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
Letter of Credit

In March 2020, in conjunction with the 2020 EdgeRock acquisition, we entered into a standby letter of credit arrangement, which expires December 31, 2024, for purposes of protecting a lessor against default on lease payments. As of June 28, 2020, we had a maximum financial exposure from this standby letter of credit totaling $0.1 million, all of which is considered usage against our Revolving Facility.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends, and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, estimates, assumptions and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements.” Please also refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019 for a more detailed discussion of our critical accounting policies.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and their potential effect on our results of operations and financial condition, refer to Note 2 in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We are exposed to certain market risks from transactions we enter into in the normal course of business. Our primary market risk exposure relates to interest rate risk. 
 
Interest Rates
 
A portion of our Revolving Facility and Term Loan are priced at variable interest rates. Accordingly, future interest rate increases could potentially put us at risk for an adverse impact on future earnings and cash flows.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) at June 28, 2020. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, at a reasonable assurance level, because of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.

Management has identified a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, which is related to the quantitative assessment of impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. Our management has concluded that we do not maintain effective controls related to the technical aspects of GAAP for testing goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has determined that the aggregate impact of this deficiency resulted in a material weakness.

The material weakness did not result in any identified misstatements in the current period consolidated financial statements, nor in any restatements of consolidated financial statements previously reported by us, and there were no changes in previously released financial results.

Remediation Steps to Address the Material Weakness

Since identifying the material weakness related to our process of impairment assessment of goodwill and intangible assets, we have been, and are currently in the process of, remediating by taking steps to strengthen the control function related to the financial closing process. These steps include recruiting additional personnel, retaining external expert resources, enhancing the design of certain management review controls and providing training regarding internal control processes. We will continue to enhance controls to ensure the financial closing process is effectively implemented. Although we plan to complete this remediation process as quickly as possible, we cannot at this time estimate when the remediation will be completed.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
 
Other than as described above, for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2020, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluations required by Rule 13a-15(d) or Rule 15d-15(d) under the Exchange Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our team members are working remotely due to COVID-19. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.


34

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
 
Our management, including our CEO and our CFO, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
No change from the information provided in ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
The full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. In evaluating us and our common stock, in addition to the risk factor below, we urge you to carefully consider the risks and other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019 (our “2019 Form 10-K”), and filed with the SEC on March 12, 2020. Any of the risks discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or any of the risks disclosed in Item 1A. of Part I of our 2019 Form 10-K, as well as additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

Our business, results of operations, and financial condition have been and may continue to be adversely impacted in material respects by the coronavirus pandemic, and future adverse impacts could be material and difficult to predict.
 
Our business, results of operations, and financial condition have been, and may continue to be, adversely impacted in material respects by COVID-19 and by related government actions (including declared states of emergency and quarantine, “shelter in place” orders, or similar orders), non-governmental organization recommendations, and public perceptions, all of which have led and may continue to lead to disruption in global economic and labor markets. These effects have had a significant impact on our business, including reduced demand for our services and workforce solutions, early terminations or reductions in projects, and hiring freezes, and a shift of a majority of our workforce to remote operations, all of which have contributed to a decline in revenues and other significant adverse impacts on our financial results. Other potential impacts of COVID-19 may include continued or expanded closures or reductions of operations with respect to our client partners’ operations or facilities, the possibility our client partners will not be able to pay for our services or workforce solutions, or that they will attempt to defer payments owed to us, either of which could materially impact our liquidity, the possibility that the uncertain nature of the pandemic may not yield the increase in certain of our workforce solutions that we have historically observed during periods of economic downturn, and the possibility that various government-sponsored programs to provide economic relief may be inadequate. Further, we may continue to experience adverse financial impacts, some of which may be material, if we cannot offset revenue declines with cost savings through expense-related initiatives, human capital management initiatives, or otherwise. As a result of these observed and potential developments, we expect our business, results of operations, and financial condition to continue to be negatively affected.
