NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
BGSF, Inc. provides consulting, managed services, and professional workforce solutions to a variety of industries through its various divisions in IT, Cyber, Finance & Accounting, Managed Services, and Real Estate (apartment communities and commercial buildings) (collectively, the “Company”).
On March 21, 2022, the Company completed the sale of substantially all its Light Industrial segment (“InStaff”) assets to Jobandtalent (“J&T”), through the wholly-owned subsidiary, Sentech Engineering Services, Inc. Instaff's financial results for reported periods have been reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as discontinued operations. See “Note 4 - Discontinued Operations” in the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information.
On December 12, 2022, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain of the liabilities of Horn
Solutions, Inc. and Horn Solutions Dallas, LLC (collectively “Horn Solutions”). See “Note 3- Acquisitions.”
On April 24, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of Arroyo Consulting, LLC ("Arroyo Consulting"), which is a nearshore/offshore workforce solutions firm that specializes in IT and software development with operations in the United States, Columbia, and India. See “Note 16- Subsequent Events.”
The Company currently operates primarily within the United States of America in its Real Estate and Professional segments.
The Real Estate segment provides office and maintenance field talent to various apartment communities and commercial buildings in 37 states and D.C., via property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations.
The Professional segment provides specialized talent and business consultants on a nationwide basis for information technology (“IT”), managed services, finance, accounting, legal, and human resources. The Professional segment operates through three divisions, Information Technology, Managed Services, and Finance and Accounting.
The Company normally experiences seasonal fluctuations. The quarterly operating results are affected by the number of billing days in a quarter, as well as the seasonality of client partners’ businesses. Demand for the Real Estate workforce solutions has historically increased in the second quarter 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. Overall first quarter demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months.
The current inflationary environment and related interest rate impacts continue to have an adverse impact on the economy and market conditions. These factors may impact labor markets by reducing demand for the Company's workforce solutions, increasing early terminations, or diminishing projects. As a result, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be negatively affected.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“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.

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.
Fiscal Periods
The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal periods for the consolidated financial statements included herein are as of April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, and include the thirteen week periods ended April 2, 2023 and March 27, 2022, referred to herein as Fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 financial statements to conform with the 2023 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, lease liability, contingent consideration obligations related to acquisitions, and income taxes. Additionally, the valuation of share-based compensation 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.
Financial Instruments
The Company uses fair value measurements in areas that include, but are not limited to, 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 provides for a revolving credit facility, 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 from continuing operations as of April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023 or revenue from continuing operations for the thirteen week periods ended April 2, 2023 and March 27, 2022. Geographic revenue from continuing operations in excess of 10% of the Company's consolidated revenue in Fiscal 2023 and the related percentage for Fiscal 2022 was generated in the following areas:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Thirteen Weeks Ended |

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses from continuing operations are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Thirteen Weeks Ended | | |
| | April 2, 2023 | | March 27, 2022 | | | | |
Beginning balance | | $ | 558 | | | $ | 449 | | | | | |
Provision for credit losses, net | | 79 | | | 51 | | | | | |
Amounts written off, net | | (79) | | | (51) | | | | | |
Ending balance | | $ | 558 | | | $ | 449 | | | | | |
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $5.0 million and $4.9 million at April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. During the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2023, $1.0 million was reclassified to Other assets and Intangible assets from Property and equipment, primarily related to continued information technology improvements.
Deposits
The Company maintains guaranteed costs policies for workers' compensation coverage in monopolistic states and minimal loss retention coverage in all other states. Under these policies, the Company is required to maintain refundable deposits of $2.4 million, which are included in deposits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as of April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively.
Other Assets
The Company capitalizes direct costs incurred in cloud computing implementation costs from hosting arrangements, and are 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. Other assets are stated net of accumulated amortization of $1.4 million and $0.7 million at April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. During the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2023, the Company added $0.2 million and reclassified $0.7 million to Other assets from Property and equipment, primarily related to continued information technology improvements.
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 with respect to long-lived assets during Fiscal 2023 or Fiscal 2022.
Leases
The Company leases all their office space through operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2028. 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 3 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.
BGSF, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 internal use software. During the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2023, the Company added $0.3 million and reclassified $0.2 million to Intangible assets from Property and equipment, primarily related to continued information technology improvements. 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 considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and its impact on each of the reporting units. 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.
At the February 2023 Board of Directors meeting, managements's plan to rebrand as BGSF was approved, which will eliminate various trade names. The decision to rebrand created an impairment of $22.5 million in trade names, which was written-off during Fiscal 2023. There were no impairment indicators for these assets during Fiscal 2022. See “Note 7 - Intangible Assets.”
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. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and its impact on each of the reporting units. 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 determined there were no impairment indicators for goodwill assets during Fiscal 2023 or Fiscal 2022.
Cash Flow Hedge
The unrealized gains or losses associated with the change in the fair value of the effective portion of the hedging instrument was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company reclassified the interest rate swap from accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss against interest expense in the same period in which the hedge transaction affected earnings.
BGSF, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 has obligations, to be paid in cash, related to its acquisitions if certain operating and financial goals are 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 continuing operations in Real Estate and Professional segments. The Company provides workforce solutions, placement services, and managed 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 from continuing operations as presented on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income 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.
Workforce solution 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 revenues - Any revenues associated with workforce solutions 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 revenues - Any revenues from these workforce solutions 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.
Managed services revenues - include both workforce solution revenues and fixed fee revenues from client partner contracts. Services performed represent the transfer of control to the client partner over a given period of time. Fixed fee revenues are recognized in equal amounts at fixed intervals as promised services are delivered. Contracts generally include an enforceable right to payment for services provided to date.
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 workforce solutions are charged to employment candidates. These assumptions determine the timing of revenue recognition for the reported period.
Refer to Note 15 for disaggregated revenues by segment.
Payment terms in the Company's contracts vary by the type and location of its client partner and the workforce solutions offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. There were no unsatisfied performance obligations as of April 2, 2023. There were no revenues recognized during the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2023 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 thirteen week period ended April 2, 2023.

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 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | Thirteen Weeks Ended |
| | | | | | | April 2, 2023 | | March 27, 2022 |
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding: | | | | | | 10,712 | | | 10,429 | |
Effect of dilutive securities: | | | | | | | | |
| Stock options and restricted stock | | | | | | — | | | 56 | |

| Convertible note | | | | | | 255 | | | — | |
Antidilutive shares | | | | | | 615 | | | 387 | |
Income Taxes
The consolidated effective tax rates were 24.9% for both thirteen week periods ended April 2, 2023 and March 27, 2022. Effective tax rates for all periods consist of federal statutory rate plus state income taxes.
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 April 2, 2023, the Company has a $3.6 million net operating loss carry forward from the 2020 EdgeRock acquisition with no expiration date.. These net operating losses are subject to an annual Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitation of $1.3 million. Additionally, there was a $5.2 million increase to deferred taxes related to the $22.5 million in impairment losses as of April 2, 2023.
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 April 2, 2023, goodwill with an adjusted tax basis of $49.9 million is remaining to be amortized for tax purposes. As a matter of operation, we first calculated the effective tax on continuing operations, and then allocated the remaining taxes to our discontinued operations, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740.
The Company follows the guidance 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.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS
Horn Solutions
On December 12, 2022, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain of the liabilities, of Horn Solutions. The purchase price of $42.7 million was paid at closing with $33.9 million in cash and $3.4 million of the Company common stock (254,455 shares of the Company common stock privately placed under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), as well as a two-year convertible promissory note of $4.4 million with an annual interest rate of 6%, with interest paid quarterly. The promissory note is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at any time after the one-year anniversary of the promissory note at a conversion price equal to $17.12 per share. The promissory note is subordinate to the Company’s senior debt. An additional portion of the purchase price, $1.0 million in cash, net of the true-up of working capital, was held back as partial security for a post-closing purchase price adjustment, which is expected to fund in May 2023, net of the net working capital and AR buyback adjustments. The asset purchase agreement contains a provision for a “true up” of acquired working capital, and unpaid accounts receivable within 120 days after the closing date. The purchase price at closing was paid out of funds under the Company's credit agreement led by BMO, see “Note 9 - Debt”.
The acquired business was assigned to the Professional segment. The acquisition of Horn Solutions allows the Company to strengthen and expand its finance and accounting operations by providing consulting, project loan staff, interim staff, direct hire, and managed services through three complementary business units, strategic accounting and finance, information technology, and transactional accounting and office staffing. Horn Solutions provides services to clients in a variety of industries including, but not limited to energy, financial services, healthcare, real estate and construction, service, manufacturing, and software industries.

NOTE 9 - DEBT
On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), maturing July 16, 2024, led by BMO, as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Credit Agreement provides for the revolving 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 and repaid. The Company also had the option to request an increase in the aggregate Term Loan by $40 million, which was done in connection with the Horn Solutions acquisition. The Credit Agreement bore interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin through August 17, 2022 (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company pays an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility.
On August 18, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement with BMO, which changed the interest rate component from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus the Applicable Margin.
In connection with the Horn Solutions acquisition on December 12, 2022 (See “Note 3 - Acquisitions”), the Company borrowed $40 million, as noted above, pursuant to a second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Credit Amendment”). The Company’s obligations under the Second Credit Amendment are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Second Credit Amendment bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Second Credit Amendment), with 2.5% of the original principal balance of the New Term Loan payable on the last business day of each quarter, beginning on March 31, 2023.
The Second Credit Amendment 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 Second Credit Amendment. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of April 2, 2023.
On April 24, 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Arroyo Consulting (See "Note 16 - Subsequent Events") the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement ("Third Credit Amendment") with BMO. The Third Credit Amendment revised language to permit an acquisition of a foreign entity under certain circumstances and modified the terms of permitted distributions and guarantors.
Letter of Credit
In March 2020, in conjunction with the 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 April 2, 2023, 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 thereunder 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 April 2, 2023.
Line of Credit
At April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, $21.9 million and $22.6 million respectively, was outstanding on the revolving facilities. Average daily balance for the thirteen week periods ended April 2, 2023 and March 27, 2022 was $20.7 million and $15.3 million, respectively.

NOTE 10 - 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 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Amounts Recorded at Fair Value | | Financial Statement Classification | | Fair Value Hierarchy | | April 2, 2023 | | January 1, 2023 |

Contingent consideration, net | | Contingent consideration, net - current | | Level 3 | | 1,102 | | | 1,081 | |
Key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023 included discount rates of approximately 9% as well as management's estimates of future sales volumes and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”).

Arroyo Consulting
On April 24, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of Arroyo Consulting for an initial purchase price of $8.0 million cash, subject to customary price adjustments as specified in the acquisition agreement. The purchase includes $0.4 million which was held back until the later of (i) the working capital adjustment, if any, or (ii) the Company’s receipt of a tax clearance letter from Seller, and $0.9 million which was held back for a period of one year as security for any indemnification obligation of the Seller. The Purchase Agreement further provides for earn-out payments of up to an aggregate of $8.5 million, provided certain agreed upon performance targets are met over a two-year period following the acquisition date. At closing, $6.8 million of the closing price was paid out of currently available funds under the Company's credit agreement led by BMO. The acquired business was assigned to the Professional segment.
The acquisition of Arroyo Consulting adds global delivery capabilities, expands the Company’s presence into Latin America and India, expands our recruitment and retention of IT talent, and brings strategic pricing flexibility. Arroyo Consulting is a nearshore/offshore workforce solutions firm that specializes in IT and software development with operations in the United States, Columbia, and India. As the transaction was recently completed, the initial accounting for the acquisition, including estimating the fair values of assets and liabilities acquired, has not been completed.

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 January 1, 2023. Comparative segment revenues and related financial information are discussed herein and are presented in Note 15 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 Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, for a description of important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected results. Please also refer to Note 4- Discontinued Operations, to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our historical financial information may not be indicative of our future performance.
Overview
We provide consulting, managed services, and professional workforce solutions to our client partners in a variety of industries through our various divisions in IT, Cyber, Finance & Accounting, Managed Services, and Real Estate (apartment communities and commercial buildings). We have continuing operations in two industry segments: Real Estate and Professional. We currently operate primarily within the United States of America, across 46 states and D.C., and within Colombia and India.
On March 21, 2022, we sold substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of InStaff to Sentech Engineering Services, Inc. (“Sentech”) for a sale price of approximately $30.3 million cash at closing and an additional $2 million one year following the date of the acquisition. See “Note 4 — Discontinued Operations” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
On December 12, 2022, we acquired substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain of the liabilities of Horn Solutions, Inc. and Horn Solutions Dallas, LLC (collectively “Horn Solutions”). See “Note 3 — Acquisitions” of our our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
In connection with the Horn Solutions acquisition on December 12, 2022, we borrowed $40 million in a second amendment to the Credit Agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”), that bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus the Applicable Margin. See “Note 9 — Debt” of our our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
On April 24, 2023, we acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of Arroyo Consulting, LLC ("Arroyo Consulting"), which is a nearshore/offshore workforce solutions firm that specializes in IT and software development with operations in the United States, Columbia, and India. See “Note 16 — Subsequent Events” of our our unaudited consolidated financial statements. At closing, $6.8 million of the closing price was paid from available funds under our credit agreement with BMO.
Our Real Estate segment provides office and maintenance field talent to various apartment communities and commercial buildings in 37 states and D.C., via property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations.
Our Professional segment provides specialized talent and business consultants on a nationwide basis for IT, finance, accounting, legal, and human resources. The Professional segment operates through three divisions, Information Technology, Managed Services, and Finance and Accounting.
Our business normally 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 workforce solutions typically increase in the second quarter 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. Overall first quarter demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization charges increased $0.9 million primarily due to amortization of intangible assets created by the Horn Solutions acquisition.
Impairment losses: At the February 2023 Board of Directors meeting, managements's plan to rebrand as BGSF was approved, which will eliminate the use of various trade names. The decision to rebrand created an impairment of $22.5 million in trade names, which was written-off during Fiscal 2023.
Interest Expense, net: Interest expense, net increased $0.9 million primarily due to debt related to the Horn Solutions acquisition, higher interest rates, and a higher average balance on the Revolving Facility (as defined below).
Income Tax: We recorded a tax benefit of approximately $5.5 million, primarily due to impairment losses on trade names versus a tax expense of approximately 0.5% million in 2022.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present Adjusted EBITDA (defined below), a measure that is not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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, impairment losses, transaction fees, 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 from continuing operations 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 from continuing operations 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 from continuing operations 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 amended credit agreement with 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, and 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 markets 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.
A summary of our working capital, operating, investing and financing activities are shown in the following table:

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, interest expense, impairment losses, and the effect of working capital changes. The primary drivers of cash inflows and outflows are accounts receivable, accrued payroll and expenses, and income taxes payable.
During Fiscal 2023, net cash provided by continuing operating activities was $3.9 million an increase of $5.0 million compared with net cash used in continuing operating activities of $1.1 million for Fiscal 2022. This increase is primarily attributable to payments received on account receivable, and prior year payments of deferred employer FICA for the CARES Act in other current liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in income taxes payable.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities consists primarily of cash paid for businesses acquired, cash received for businesses sold, and capital expenditures.
In Fiscal 2023, we made capital expenditures of $0.7 primarily related to continued information technology improvements. In Fiscal 2022, we received $30.3 million in connection to the sale of InStaff and made capital expenditures of $2.1 related to the information technology improvement project.
Financing Activities
Cash flows from financing activities consisted principally of borrowings and payments under our credit agreement and payment of dividends.
For Fiscal 2023, we disbursed $1.6 million in cash dividends on our common stock, we paid down $1.0 million on the Term Loan, and reduced our Revolving Facility $0.6 million. For Fiscal 2022, we paid down $26.9 million on the Term Loan, disbursed $1.6 million in cash dividends on our common stock, and made payments of $1.1 million of contingent consideration related to the Momentum acquisition. We borrowed $1.4 million on our Revolving Facility for increased working capital needs.
Credit Agreements
On July 16, 2019, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), maturing July 16, 2024, led by BMO, as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Credit Agreement provides for 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 payable quarterly, based on an annual percentage of the original principal amount as defined in the Credit Agreement, all of which has been funded and repaid. We also had the option to request an increase in in the aggregate Term Loan by $40 million, which was done in connection with the Horn Solutions acquisition. The Credit Agreement bore interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin through August 17, 2022 (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). We pay an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility.
On August 18, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) which changed the interest rate component from LIBOR to the SOFR, plus the Applicable Margin.
In connection with the Horn Solutions acquisition on December 12, 2022 (See “Note 3 - Acquisitions” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements), we borrowed $40 million, as noted above, pursuant to a second amendment to the credit agreement (“Second Credit Amendment”). Our obligations under the Second Credit Amendment are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Second Credit Amendment bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Second Credit Amendment), with 2.5% of the original principal balance of the New Term Loan payable on the last business day of each quarter, beginning on March 31, 2023.
At closing of the Arroyo Consulting acquisition, $6.8 million of the closing price was paid from available funds under our credit agreement with BMO.
The Second Credit Amendment contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. We are subject to a maximum Leverage Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as defined in the Second Credit Amendment. We were in compliance with these covenants as of April 2, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Letter of Credit
In March 2020, in conjunction with the 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 April 2, 2023, 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 January 1, 2023 for a more detailed discussion of our critical accounting policies.
As a result of the economic uncertainty, we may need to make necessary changes to accounting policy judgments and estimates over time, which could result in meaningful impacts to our financial statements in future periods. Actual results and outcomes may differ from our estimates and assumptions.
The current inflationary environment and related interest rate impacts continue to have significant adverse impact on the economy and market conditions. These factors may impact labor markets by reducing demand for our workforce solutions, increase early terminations, or diminish projects. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be negatively affected, and could increase our cost of borrowing.
Revenue Recognition
We derive our revenues from continuing operations in Real Estate and Professional segments. We provide workforce solutions, placement services, and managed services. Revenues are recognized when promised workforce solutions are delivered to client partners, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services. We recognize revenue through the following types of services: workforce solutions, contingent placements, retained search placements, and managed services.
Intangible Assets
We hold 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. We capitalize 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.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between the enterprise value/cash paid less the fair value of all recognized net asset fair values including identifiable intangible asset values in a business combination. We review goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable.
Income Taxes
The current provision for income taxes represents estimated amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be filed for the year. We recognizes any penalties when necessary as part of selling, general and administrative expenses. 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 net as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. When appropriate, we will record a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits that may not be realized. We follow the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.
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 January 1, 2023.
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 and inflation risks. Through the current period, we have been able to moderate the negative impacts of an inflationary market by adjusting our pricing model.
Interest Rates
Our Revolving Facility is priced at a 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 conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective, at a reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
For the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2023, 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. We are continually monitoring and assessing the impact of the ongoing situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.
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.
