NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (ACS) and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated. We are a Fortune 1000 company comprised of approximately 30,000 full-time equivalent employees in 35 countries providing business process and technology outsourcing solutions to world-class commercial and government clients. | |||
The financial information presented should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2001. The foregoing unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. | |||
All share and per share information is presented after giving effect to the two-for-one stock split of our Class A and Class B common shares declared on January 22, 2002, paid on February 22, 2002 in the form of a stock dividend to shareholders of record as of February 15, 2002. |
2. | EQUITY TRANSACTIONS |
On March 15, 2002, we completed the redemption of our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 (the Notes). Holders of all of the outstanding Notes converted their Notes to shares of our Class A common stock in accordance with Article XII of the Indenture dated as of March 20, 1998 between ACS and U.S Trust Company of Texas, N.A., as trustee prior to the March 15, 2002 redemption date. As the result of such conversions, 10,780,887 shares of our Class A common stock were issued to such holders. | |||
On February 22, 2002, we completed a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock implemented in the form of a 100% stock dividend (Stock Split). Each holder of record of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on February 15, 2002 received an additional share of such stock held by them at that time. In connection with the Stock Split, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance or subject to outstanding options granted under our employee stock option or other benefit plans, as well as the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 and 3.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of such options, plans and other instruments. | |||
On October 10, 2001, we completed our offering of 18.4 million shares of our Class A common stock. The shares were issued at $40.50 per share. Net proceeds of $714.3 million (net of underwriters fees and other costs) were used to repay the $550 million 18-month interim credit facility we obtained in connection with the IMS acquisition (described below) and a portion of the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility. |
3. | ACQUISITIONS |
In August 2001, we acquired 100% of the stock of Lockheed Martin IMS Corporation (IMS), now known as ACS State and Local Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation for approximately $825 million. The acquisition was funded from a $550 million 18-month interim credit facility, borrowings from our existing revolving credit facility, and existing cash on hand. IMS results have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition, August 1, 2001. IMS provides business process outsourcing services to more than 230 state and local government agencies in 45 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Canada, Australia, and Europe. IMS specializes in child support enforcement, welfare and workforce services, child care management, electronic toll collection, and other intelligent transportation services involving the trucking industry, photo enforcement of red-light and speeding violations, parking management, and information technology outsourcing. We believe the acquisition of IMS solidifies ACS as a leader in technology based outsourcing solutions to state and local government agencies. |

3. | ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED) |
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with assets acquired of $932.3 million and liabilities assumed of $107.3 million. The purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value at July 31, 2001 as follows (in thousands): |
Current Assets |
$ | 117,114 | |||
Property, equipment and software |
50,972 | ||||
Other long-term assets |
2,826 | ||||
Intangible assets |

Current liabilities |
107,257 | ||||
Total liabilities assumed |
107,257 | ||||
Net assets acquired |
$ | 825,000 | |||
The total amount of goodwill is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. Software of $41.5 million is included in property, equipment and software and has an anticipated useful life ranging from 2 to 10 years. The $64.3 million of acquired intangible assets is attributable to customer contracts with an aggregate anticipated useful life of approximately 11 years. | |||
Pro forma Financial Information | |||
The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of our consolidated results of operations as if the IMS acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of future results or actual results that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts). |

We have completed four other acquisitions during fiscal year 2002. The most significant was the acquisition of the business process outsourcing services unit of National Processing Company (NPC). NPC provides healthcare claims processing, credit card application processing and airline lift ticket processing. As part of the transaction, we acquired all of NPCs offshore operations in Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Barbados and a majority of NPCs Mexican operations. The transaction value was $43 million plus related transaction costs, with assets acquired of $50.3 million and liabilities assumed of $7.3 million. We recorded goodwill of $25.8 million (which is fully deductible for tax purposes) and $2.8 million in intangible assets. The $2.8 million intangible assets are attributable to customer contracts with an aggregate anticipated useful life of approximately 3 years. NPCs operating results are included in our financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition, August 1, 2001. Of the three other acquisitions we completed during fiscal year 2002, two are included in our commercial segment and the other is included in our federal government segment. These acquisitions are not considered material to our results of operations; therefore no pro forma information is presented. |

4. | NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS |
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141) Business Combinations and No. 142 (SFAS 142) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as intangible assets apart from goodwill. SFAS 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the goodwills impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill be amortized over their useful lives. SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001. We adopted the provisions of SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 effective July 1, 2001. | |||
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 144, (SFAS 144) Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 retains the fundamental provisions of existing generally accepted accounting principles with respect to the recognition and measurement of long-lived asset impairment contained in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121) Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. However, SFAS No. 144 provides new guidance intended to address certain significant implementation issues associated with SFAS 121, including expanded guidance with respect to appropriate cash flows to be used to determine whether recognition of any long-lived asset impairment is required, and if required, how to measure the amount of the impairment. SFAS 144 also requires that any net assets to be disposed of by sale be reported at the lower of carrying value or fair market value less cost to sell, and expands the reporting of discontinued operations to include any component of an entity with operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity. SFAS 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not believe SFAS 144 will have a material impact on our future earnings and financial position. | |||
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 145 (SFAS 145), Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. Among other things, SFAS 145 rescinds both Statement of Financial Standards No. 4 (SFAS 4) Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and the amendment to SFAS 4, Statement of Financial Standards No. 64 (SFAS 64), Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. Through this rescission, SFAS 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS 4 and SFAS 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. Generally, SFAS 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. We do not believe SFAS 145 will have a material impact on our future earnings and financial position. |

6. | DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
In order to manage interest costs and exposure to changing interest rates, we held two interest rate hedges, designated as cash flow hedges, which were initiated in December 1998. Both interest rate hedges expired in December 2001. Each hedge was structured such that we paid a fixed rate of interest of 4.54%, and received a floating rate of interest based on one month LIBOR. The notional amount of the two hedges totaled $100 million and the fair market value of the two hedges at March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001 was $0 and ($355,000), respectively. The fair value of each interest rate hedge reflected termination cash value. The fair value of the interest rate hedges, net of $0 and $139,000 tax benefit, respectively, was reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive income (net of tax). | |||
In order to manage the volatility of the value of our marketable security investment of $979,000, we entered into a no-cost collar agreement in June 2001, which will mature in July 2002. The collar, a fair value hedge, is structured so that all fluctuations in the price of the marketable security above or below 100% or 102.5% of its value on the date the collar was entered into are hedged. As of March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001, the collar had fair market values of ($1,000) and $27,000, respectively. |

7. | COMPREHENSIVE INCOME |
We have adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), Reporting Comprehensive Income. The objective of SFAS 130 is to report a measure of all changes in equity of an enterprise that result from transactions and other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners. Comprehensive income is the total of net income and other non-owner charges in equity. | |||
The components of comprehensive income are as follow (in the thousands): |

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this MD&A regarding our financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of our management for future operations are forward-looking statements. While management has based any forward looking statements contained herein on its current expectations, the information on which such expectations were based may change. These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results to materially differ from such statements. Such events include, but are not necessarily limited to: (i) uncertainties caused by terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the threat of other attacks, acts of war or other related events that may disrupt the markets in which we operate, our customers, our operations and our profitability; (ii) the loss of business from significant customers; (iii) the impairment of our capital investments as the result of the deterioration of the financial condition of our customers in whom we have made a significant capital investment; (iv) the competition in the information technology industry and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins; (v) difficulty or inability to execute our acquisition strategy; (vi) timing and magnitude of technological advances; (vii) loss of significant vendor(s) resulting in increased expense or inability to serve our customers; (viii) provisions in our contracts permitting termination for convenience, permitting termination of or subjecting us to penalties under certain contracts, if specified service levels are not maintained, and/or permitting audits of our pricing and compliance; (ix) changes in federal, state or local government requirements imposing additional burdens and subjecting us to additional expenditures and increased compliance risk; and (x) the cost of attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel. These risks and uncertainties and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail in the Risk Factors section of our Prospectus Supplement dated October 3, 2001, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, we operate in a highly and rapidly changing environment and new risks may arise. Accordingly, investors should not place any reliance on forward looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We undertake no obligation to update any forward looking statements.
SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS
NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002
In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a $7.4 million loss in Other non-operating (income) expense, net associated with a write-down of a cost-basis investment to its estimated realizable value. Included in tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 is a one-time tax benefit of approximately $4.3 million resulting primarily from recently enacted federal income tax rules that provide for a larger tax deduction associated with our June 2000 divestitures and deferred tax adjustments to reflect realization of tax deductions for which their probability is no longer uncertain.
On March 15, 2002, we completed the redemption of our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 (the Notes). Holders of all of the outstanding Notes converted their Notes to shares of our Class A common stock in accordance with Article XII of the Indenture dated as of March 20, 1998 between ACS and U.S Trust Company of Texas, N.A., as trustee prior to the March 15, 2002 redemption date. As the result of such conversions, 10,780,887 shares of our Class A common stock were issued to such holders.
On February 22, 2002, we completed a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock implemented in the form of a 100% stock dividend (Stock Split). Each holder of record of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock as of the close of business on February 15, 2002 received an additional share of such stock held by them at that time. In connection with the Stock Split, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance or subject to outstanding options granted under our employee stock option or other benefit plans, as well as the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 and 3.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of such options, plans and other instruments.
On October 10, 2001, we completed our offering of 18.4 million shares of our Class A common stock. The shares were issued at $40.50 per share. Net proceeds of $714.3 million (net of underwriters fees and other costs) were used to repay the $550 million 18-month interim credit facility incurred to fund the IMS acquisition (described below) and a portion of the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
12
In August 2001, we acquired Lockheed Martin IMS Corporation (IMS), now known as ACS State and Local Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation. IMS, with its principal offices located in Washington D.C. and approximately 4,800 employees primarily throughout the United States, provides services to state and local government agencies in child support enforcement, welfare and workforce services, child care management, electronic toll collection, and other intelligent transportation services involving the trucking industry, photo enforcement of red-light and speeding violations, parking management, and information technology outsourcing. The transaction, valued at $825 million plus related transaction costs, was initially funded through a combination of a $550 million, 18-month interim credit facility, borrowings on our existing credit facility and existing cash on hand. IMS operating results are included in our financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition, August 1, 2001.
Also in August 2001, we acquired the business process outsourcing services unit of National Processing Company (NPC). NPC provides healthcare claims processing, credit card application processing and airline lift ticket processing. As part of the transaction, we acquired all of NPCs offshore operations in Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Barbados and a majority of NPCs Mexican operations. The transaction value was $43 million plus related transaction costs. NPCs operating results are included in our financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition, August 1, 2001.
NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2001, we completed the sale of a new issue of $317 million of 3.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006 (the 3.5% Notes). The 3.5% Notes are convertible into our Class A common stock at a conversion rate of 23.0234 shares of Class A common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of 3.5% Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $43.44 per share of Class A common stock), subject to adjustments in certain events. Interest on the 3.5% Notes is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year commencing on August 15, 2001. The 3.5% Notes may be redeemed at our option on or after February 18, 2004, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth in the 3.5% Notes.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, we recorded a $12.8 million gain in Other non-operating (income) expense, net associated with the sale of a certain non-strategic minority investment in ACS Merchant Services, Inc. In addition, we recorded non-recurring charges totaling $12.5 million related to the termination of certain computer equipment leases and consolidation of disaster recovery contracts ($10.4 million recorded in Rent, lease and maintenance) and litigation expense and the writedown of a facility held-for-sale to market value ($2.1 million recorded in Other operating expenses).

COMPARISON OF THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 TO THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
Revenue increased $275.0 million to $800.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 from $525.7 million (excluding $7.9 million revenue from divested units) in third quarter of fiscal year 2001. Revenues from our commercial segment increased 76% (excluding the $7.9 million in revenue from divested units) to $591.0 million. Internal revenue growth for the commercial segment was 18% and growth from acquisitions was 58%. Internal growth is primarily due to increased revenues in business process outsourcing from our state healthcare and state and local government customers. Revenue in our government segment increased 10% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 to $209.7 million from $190.1 million in the same period last year. Internal revenue growth was 7% and growth from acquisitions was 3% for our government segment. For the consolidated group internal growth was 14% and growth from acquisitions was 38%.
After adjusting for the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5), operating income increased $37.3 million to $105.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 as compared to $68.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2001, primarily due to the impact of the IMS and NPC acquisitions in the first quarter of fiscal year 2002, as well as the internal growth discussed above.
After adjusting for the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5), our operating margins increased to 13.2% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 from 12.7% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2001. Wages and benefits increased 0.3% and services and supplies increased 0.5%, while rent, lease and maintenance decreased 1.5% as a percentage of revenue due to our increasing BPO business mix that has a higher mix of salaries and benefits than hardware and maintenance costs. Depreciation and amortization remained constant at 3.4% as a percentage of revenue after adjusting for the application of SFAS 142.
Included in other non-operating (income) expense in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 is a $7.4 million loss on the write down of a cost-basis investment to its estimated realizable value. Excluding this loss, other income decreased $2.1 million due to interest income earned during the third quarter of fiscal 2001 on cash balances from the issuance and related proceeds from the February 2001 3.5 % Convertible Subordinated Notes.
Tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 includes a one-time tax benefit of $4.3 million (see Note 11). Excluding this benefit, our effective tax rate of approximately 37.5% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 exceeded the federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the net effect of state income taxes. Our effective tax rate decreased 1.5% from 39.0% from the third quarter of fiscal year 2001 due to the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5).
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
Revenue increased 46% to $2.2 billion in the nine months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2001. Internal revenue growth was 12% and 36% was growth from acquisitions. Revenue growth in our commercial segment, excluding revenue from divested units, was 73% with 20% internal growth and 53% acquisition growth. In our government segment, revenue increased $37.1 million, or 7%, primarily from internal growth.
Excluding the non-recurring charges from fiscal year 2001 (see Note 11) and adjusting for the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5), operating income rose $93.0 million to $284.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. Our 12% increase in internal growth over the prior year period and the impact of acquisitions, particularly IMS and NPC, are the major factors driving the increase.
Our operating margins increased 0.3% as a percentage of revenue after adjusting for the fiscal year 2001 non-recurring charges and the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5). Wages and benefits increased 0.5% as a percentage of revenue offset by a 1.1% decrease as a percentage of revenue in rent, lease and maintenance after adjusting for the non-recurring charges from fiscal year 2001 (see Note 11) due to the increase in BPO business mix which has a higher component of wages and benefits and a lower component of rent, lease and maintenance than traditional technology outsourcing. Depreciation and amortization increased 0.3% as a percentage of revenue after adjusting for the application of SFAS 142 due to capital expenditures and additions to intangible assets during the last year.
Interest expense increased $9.7 million primarily due to the interest expense on the 3.5% Convertible Subordinated debt issued in the third quarter of fiscal year 2001.
Other non-operating expense in fiscal year 2002 consisted primarily of a $7.4 million loss on a cost basis investment to its net realizable value and a $1.0 million loss on a long-term investment we received in the December 1998 acquisition of BRC Holdings, Inc. Other non-operating income in fiscal year 2001 consisted of a non-recurring gain on sale of an investment (see Note 11) and a gain on a note receivable.
14
Tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 includes a one-time tax benefit of $4.3 million (see Note 11). Excluding this benefit, our effective tax rate of approximately 37.5% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 exceeded the federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the net effect of state income taxes. Our effective tax rate decreased 1.5% from 39.0% from the third quarter of fiscal year 2001 primarily due to the application of SFAS 142 (see Note 5).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2002, we had cash and cash equivalents of $45.2 million compared to $242.5 million at June 30, 2001. Included in the cash balances were $4.6 million and $4.9 million at March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001, respectively, of restricted cash held on behalf of governmental customers. Our working capital decreased to $432.4 million at March 31, 2002 from $528.6 million at June 30, 2001 due to cash paid for the IMS and NPC acquisitions during the first quarter of $225 million and $43 million, respectively, offset by proceeds from the second quarter fiscal year 2002 equity offering, net of repayments of outstanding balances on our revolving credit facility and interim credit facility.
Cash flow from operations was $218.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to $122.8 million for the same period last year after adjusting for the approximately $49.7 million paid in income taxes related to the net gain from our summer 2000 divestiture activity and approximately $10.4 million of non-recurring lease termination charges, which are included in cash flows from operations. Cash flow used by investing activities was $1.0 billion primarily due to the acquisition activity during the nine months ended March 31, 2002. Net cash flow from financing activities was $615.9 million due to the proceeds received from the second quarter fiscal 2002 equity offering offset by net payments on our revolving credit facility and interim credit facility.
On March 15, 2002, we completed the redemption of our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 (the Notes). Holders of all of the outstanding Notes converted their Notes to shares of our Class A common stock in accordance with Article XII of the Indenture dated as of March 20, 1998 between ACS and U.S Trust Company of Texas, N.A., as trustee prior to the March 15, 2002 redemption date. As the result of such conversions, 10,780,887 shares of our Class A common stock were issued to such holders.
On February 22, 2002, we completed a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock implemented in the form of a 100% stock dividend (Stock Split). Each holder of record of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock as of the close of business on February 15, 2002 received an additional share of such stock held by them at that time. In connection with the Stock Split, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance or subject to outstanding options granted under our employee stock option or other benefit plans, as well as the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 and 3.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of such options, plans and other instruments.
On October 10, 2001, we completed our offering of 18.4 million shares of our Class A common stock. The shares were issued at $40.50 per share. Net proceeds of $714.3 million (net of underwriters fees and other costs) were used to repay the $550 million 18-month interim credit facility incurred to fund the IMS acquisition and a portion of the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
At March 31, 2002, we had $345 million available on our $450 million revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit of $105 million that secure certain contractual performance and other obligations. These letters of credit reduce the availability of our revolving credit facility. Subsequent to quarter end, we issued additional letters of credit totaling $65 million to secure performance bonds related to ACS State and Local Solutions business. As of March 31, 2002, we had $317.2 million of long-term debt outstanding, which was primarily comprised of our 3.5 % Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006. For discussion of our lease obligations, please see Note 16 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2001.
Due to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the Enron Corporation bankruptcy, the surety bond market has substantially changed, resulting in reduced availability of bonds and increased premiums. Some of our state and local government contracts require either a bond or a letter of credit and future requests for proposal may require a surety bond or letter of credit. Notwithstanding the existing condition of the surety bond market, management believes that we have sufficient liquidity from its cash flow and under our revolving credit facility to meet ongoing business needs and to respond to future requests for proposals from state and local governments.
We, along with our Chairman, have an equity interest in DDH Aviation, Inc. (DDH), a corporate airplane brokerage firm, and our Chairman, along with two of our officers are directors of DDH. Under a guaranty agreement, we are liable for up to approximately $11.5 million of DDHs $47 million line of credit with Citicorp USA, Inc. We have entered into an Agreement for Purchase with DDH Aviation, Inc. for the purchase of a Challenger 600 aircraft for a purchase price of $8.5 million, which aircraft is scheduled to be delivered during the middle of calendar year 2002.

Management believes that available cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations and available borrowings under our credit facility, will provide adequate funds for our anticipated internal growth needs, including capital expenditures. Our management also believes that cash provided by operations will be sufficient to satisfy all existing debt obligations as they become due. However, we intend to continue our growth through acquisitions and from time to time to engage in discussions with potential acquisition candidates, which could require significant commitments of capital. In order to pursue such opportunities we may be required to incur debt or to issue additional potentially dilutive securities in the future. No assurance can be given as to our future acquisitions and expansion opportunities and how such opportunities will be financed.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions or conditions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties and may result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition. During fiscal year 2001, we adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101). SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. We recognize revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been shipped or the services have been provided to the client, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Generally, information technology processing revenues are recognized as services are provided to the client. Revenues from annual maintenance contracts are deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance period. Revenues from hardware sales are recognized upon delivery to the client and uncertainties regarding customer acceptance have expired.
In the federal government segment, our contracts are typically cost reimbursable, fixed price, unit price or time and material contracts. Revenues on cost reimbursable contracts are recognized by applying an estimated factor to costs as incurred, such factor being determined by the contract provisions and prior experience. Revenues on unit-price contracts are recognized at the contractual selling prices of work completed and accepted by the customer. Revenues on time and material contracts are recognized at the contractual rates as the labor hours and direct expenses are incurred.
Revenues on fixed price contracts are recognized over the contract term based on the percentage of services that are provided during the period compared with the total estimated services to be provided over the entire contract using Statement of Position 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts (SOP 81-1), which requires the use of percentage-of-completion accounting for long-term contracts that are binding agreements between ACS and our customers in which we agree, for compensation, to perform a service to the customers specifications. Performance will often extend over long periods, and our right to receive payment depends on our performance in accordance with the agreement.
The percentage-of-completion methodology involves recognizing revenue based on using the percentage of services completed, on a current cumulative cost to total cost basis, using a reasonably consistent profit margin over the period. Due to the long-term nature of these contracts, developing the estimates of costs often requires significant judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the progress of work completed and ultimate cost of the contract include, but are not limited to, the availability of labor and labor productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, the impact of delayed performance and availability and timing of funding from the customer. If changes occur in delivery, productivity or other factors used in developing the estimates of costs or revenues, we revise our cost and revenue estimates and any revisions are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to that revision become known.
Revenues earned in excess of related billings are accrued, whereas billings in excess of revenues earned are deferred until the related services are provided. Immediate recognition is made of any anticipated losses.
16
Valuation of goodwill and intangibles. Our business acquisitions typically result in goodwill and other intangible assets, which affect the amount of future period amortization expense and possible impairment expense that we could incur. The determination of the value of goodwill and other intangibles requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future business trends and growth. If an event occurs which would cause us to revise our estimates and assumptions used in analyzing the value of our goodwill or other intangibles, such revision could result in an impairment charge that could have a material impact on our financial results.
Allowance for doubtful accounts. We make estimates of the collectibility of our accounts receivables. We specifically analyze accounts receivables and historical bad debts, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms and collection trends when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. Any change in the assumptions used in analyzing a specific account receivable may result in additional allowance for doubtful accounts being recognized in the period in which the change occurs.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
On July 1, 2001, we adopted Statements Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141) and No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. SFAS 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the goodwills impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill be amortized over their useful lives. SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is after June 30, 2001.
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 144, (SFAS 144) Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 retains the fundamental provisions of existing generally accepted accounting principles with respect to the recognition and measurement of long-lived asset impairment contained in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121) Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. However, SFAS No. 144 provides new guidance intended to address certain significant implementation issues associated with SFAS 121, including expanded guidance with respect to appropriate cash flows to be used to determine whether recognition of any long-lived asset impairment is required, and if required, how to measure the amount of the impairment. SFAS 144 also requires that any net assets to be disposed of by sale be reported at the lower of carrying value or fair market value less cost to sell, and expands the reporting of discontinued operations to include any component of an entity with operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity. SFAS 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not believe SFAS 144 will have a material impact on our future earnings and financial position.
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 145 (SFAS 145), Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. Among other things, SFAS 145 rescinds both Statement of Financial Standards No. 4 (SFAS 4) Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and the amendment to SFAS 4, Statement of Financial Standards No. 64 (SFAS 64), Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. Through this rescission, SFAS 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS 4 and SFAS 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. Generally, SFAS 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. We do not believe SFAS 145 will have a material impact on our future earnings and financial position.

PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On December 16, 1998, a state district court in Houston, Texas entered final judgment against us in a lawsuit brought by twenty-one former employees of Gibraltar Savings Association and/or First Texas Savings Association (collectively, GSA/FTSA). The GSA/FTSA employees alleged that they were entitled to the value of 401,541 shares of our stock pursuant to options issued to the GSA/FTSA employees in 1988 in connection with a former technology outsourcing services agreement between GSA/FTSA and us. The judgment against us was for approximately $17 million, which includes attorneys fees and pre-judgment interest, but excludes additional attorneys fees of approximately $850,000 and post-judgement interest at the statutorily mandated rate, which could be awarded in the event the plaintiffs are successful upon appeal and final judgment. We continue to believe that we have a meritorious defense to all or a substantial portion of the plaintiffs claims, and accordingly, have not accrued any amount on our balance sheet related to the lawsuit. We filed our appeal of the judgment on March 15, 1999 and a brief in support of such appeal has been filed. We plan to vigorously pursue the appeal. The plaintiffs also have filed a notice of appeal. A hearing for oral arguments on the parties appeals occurred on September 20, 2001. Should the proceedings not be favorably resolved on appeal, we would be subject to a material charge. The court of appeals has given no indication of when it will issue its decision.
In addition to the foregoing, we are subject to certain other legal proceedings, claims and disputes which arise in the ordinary course of our business. Although we cannot predict the outcomes of these legal proceedings, we do not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On March 15, 2002, we completed the redemption of our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 (the Notes). Holders of all of the outstanding Notes converted their Notes to shares of our Class A common stock in accordance with Article XII of the Indenture dated as of March 20, 1998 between ACS and U.S Trust Company of Texas, N.A., as trustee prior to the March 15, 2002 redemption date. As the result of such conversions, 10,780,887 shares of our Class A common stock were issued to such holders.
On February 22, 2002, we completed a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock implemented in the form of a 100% stock dividend (Stock Split). Each holder of record of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock as of the close of business on February 15, 2002 received an additional share of such stock held by them at that time. In connection with the Stock Split, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance or subject to outstanding options granted under our employee stock option or other benefit plans, as well as the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2005 and 3.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2006, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of such options, plans and other instruments.
On October 10, 2001, we completed our offering of 18.4 million shares of our Class A common stock. The shares were issued at $40.50 per share. Net proceeds of $714.3 million (net of underwriters fees and other costs) were used to repay the $550 million 18-month interim credit facility we obtained in connection with the IMS acquisition and a portion of the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
