NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Clearpoint Business Resources, Inc. (ClearPoint or the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the interim financial statement rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year or any interim period.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (MD&A) included elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q and the Companys annual audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the MD&A included in the Form 8-K filed April 5, 2007 with the SEC.
ClearPoint provides comprehensive workforce management solutions throughout the United States, including outsourcing placement and recruiting services, vendor management and staff augmentation programs. Since its inception, the Company has enhanced its platform through organic growth and the integration of acquisitions. The Company derives its revenues from fees for professional services. Strategically, all core operations, including recruiting, credentialing, compliance, payroll, benefits administration and risk management, are centralized at its offices in Chalfont, Pennsylvania and Orlando, Florida.
Terra Nova Acquisition Corporation (Terra Nova) Merger and Accounting Treatment:
Terra Nova Acquisition Corporation (Terra Nova), incorporated in Delaware, was a blank check company formed on July 21, 2004 to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business. On April 22, 2005, Terra Nova consummated an Initial Public Offering (Offering) of 4,800,000 units (Units) with each Unit consisting of one share of Terra Novas common stock, $.0001 par value, and two redeemable common stock purchase warrants (Warrants) as described in Note 14. On April 26, 2005, Terra Nova consummated the closing of an additional 720,000 Units which were subject to the over-allotment option. The units were sold at an offering price of $6.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $33,120,000. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds to Terra Nova from the Offering were approximately $29,556,400, of which $28,648,800 was deposited into a trust fund (Trust Fund).
On February 12, 2007, ClearPoint consummated a merger (the Merger) with Terra Nova. As a result, CPBR Acquisition, Inc. (CPBR), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Terra Nova, merged with and into ClearPoint. The parties to the Merger included Terra Nova, ClearPoint, CPBR and all of ClearPoints stockholders. At the closing of the Merger, the ClearPoint stockholders were issued an aggregate of 6,051,549 shares of Terra Nova common stock. Ten percent (10%) of the Terra Nova common stock being issued to the ClearPoint stockholders at the time of the Merger were placed into escrow to secure the indemnity rights of Terra Nova under the merger agreement and are governed by the terms of an escrow agreement. A further ten percent (10%) of the Terra Nova common stock being issued to the ClearPoint stockholders at the time of the Merger were placed into escrow to be released upon finalization of certain closing conditions pursuant to the Merger agreement.
7
The Merger agreement also provides for ClearPoints original stockholders to receive additional performance payments, in the form of cash and/or shares, contingent upon the future performance of the combined companys share price. Upon the Closing, Terra Nova changed its name to ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc. and is hereinafter referred to as the Company.
Upon consummation of the Merger, $30.6 million was released from the Trust Fund to be used by the combined company. After payments totaling approximately $3.3 million for professional fees and other direct and indirect costs related to the Merger, the net proceeds amounted to $27.3 million. The Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as a reverse acquisition in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, Terra Nova was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, this Merger was considered to be a capital transaction in substance. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of ClearPoint issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Terra Nova, accompanied by a recapitalization. All historical share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse acquisition of ClearPoint and related recapitalization.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The Companys accounting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Companys fiscal year 2006 audited financial statements included in the Form 8-K filed April 5, 2007 with the SEC.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share:
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities.
In accordance with SFAS 128, stock options and warrants outstanding at June 30, 2007 to purchase 11,685,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were antidilutive. The stock options and warrants did not exist at June 30, 2006.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In July 2006, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has adopted FIN 48 and has determined that there is no material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
8
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 157 effective for periods beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Warrants Bridge
In connection with the Bridge $10,000,000 term loan at February 28, 2005, the Company simultaneously issued three detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9% of the Companys outstanding stock, on a fully diluted basis, at the exercise date at the exercise price of $0.001 per share. The warrants vested immediately upon issuance and may be exercised until February 28, 2015. The Company has accounted for the warrants issued to the investors as a liability under the provisions of FAS 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (FAS 150). The warrants were initially valued at $396,000 by an independent valuation company. This initial value had been recorded as debt discount and was being amortized over the three year life of the loan by the interest method. Amortization of $132,057 and $65,893 has been recorded by the Company as interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The warrants are fair valued each reporting period and the increase/decrease reflected as interest expense/income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2006, the warrants were valued at $3,291,775. The warrant holders were paid $3,291,775 to redeem the warrants on February 12, 2007 from proceeds received as a result of the Merger.
NOTE 13 STOCK BASED COMPENSATION:
The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123(R)) and the guidance provided by the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107), which established the accounting for share-based compensation awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to record compensation expense for stock options measured at fair value, on the date of grant, using an option-pricing model. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
Stock options granted under the Companys 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the LTI Plan), which was approved by the stockholders on February 12, 2007, may expire up to ten years after the date of grant or earlier at the determination of the Board of Directors. Under the LTI Plan, the Company reserved 2,750,000 shares of stock in accordance with the plans terms. The number of shares covered by stock options that may be exercised by any participant during any calendar year cannot have an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, measured at the date of the grant. The exercise price for options cannot be less than the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the date of the grant. To date, 645,000 options have been granted to key employees and directors of the Company.

The Companys results of operations for the three months and six months periods ended June 30, 2007 include share-based employee compensation totaling $0 and $890,745, respectively. Such amounts have been included in the Statements of Operations in selling, general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2007 there was $0 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to all unvested stock options. The fair value of these options was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions and fair values:
| Six months ended June 30, 2007 | ||
| Volatility |
23.8% | |
| Expected term in years |
3 years | |
| Risk-free interest rate |

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above was zero as at June 30, 2007 based on the closing common share price of $4.98 as at June 30, 2007. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-intrinsic value (the difference between the Companys closing stock price on the last trading day of the second quarter of 2007 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2007. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Companys common stock.

In February of 2007, the Company entered into a three party settlement agreement between the Company, Westaff, Inc (Westaff) and 26 employees hired by the Company who formerly worked for Westaff. The settlement arose out of lawsuits filed by Weststaff against certain of those employees. The terms of the settlement required the Company to make a one time cash payment of $266,000 to Westaff, plus legal fees of $56,000, and in return for such consideration Westaff agreed to release all 26 former employees of Westaff and now employed by the Company from their non-compete and non-solicitation agreements that the employees had signed while employed by Westaff. As an additional term of the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to cease the solicitation of Westaff employees. The total cost to the Company including legal expenses was $0 and $322,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
The Company also hired a high level transportation sales executive.

| ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The information contained herein has been derived from the Companys consolidated financial statements and should be read together with the Companys consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Some of the forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as believes, expects, may, will, should, could, seek, intends, plans, estimates, anticipates or other comparable terms. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties discussed in Risk Factors included in the reports filed by the Company with the SEC should be considered in evaluating the Companys forward-looking statements. The Company has no plans to update its forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof. We caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial condition of ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (ClearPoint or the Company). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the ClearPoints consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, including those found in the Companys Form 8-K filed on April 5, 2007, as well as the Companys Form 8-K/A filed on May 11, 2007, that include information regarding the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of ALS, LLC and its subsidiaries, doing business as Advantage Services Group (ASG) and the Companys Form 8-K/A filed on May 14, 2007 that includes information regarding the merger (Merger) with Terra Nova Acquisition Corp. (Terra Nova).
All figures in ClearPoints Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are shown in thousands (000s) of dollars unless otherwise noted.
Overview
ClearPoints corporate headquarters are located in Chalfont, Pennsylvania. ClearPoint currently operates additional administrative offices in Maitland, Florida. ClearPoint also has a call center facility in Orlando, Florida and operates out of 30 branch offices serving 42 states with over 7,500 temporary associates serving the Companys clients.

ClearPoint derives its revenues from placing its employees at client locations and billing each client for their time and expenses, and from productivity consulting and implementing innovative performance-based solutions.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
ClearPoints discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based on ClearPoints consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these principles in the United States of America requires ClearPoint to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
18
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and also affect the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each period. Actual results could differ from those which result from using the estimates.
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that require application of managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
ClearPoints significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Notes to ClearPoints Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, as filed on Form 8-K on April 5, 2007.
Seasonality
ClearPoint experiences fluctuation in revenue and operating results based on a number of factors including but not limited to competition in its markets, availability of qualified personnel and the personnel demands of its clients. Historically, ClearPoint has experienced a rise in demand from its transportation clients in the third and fourth quarter due to the increase in the shipment of products for the holiday season. Inclement weather can cause a slowdown in ClearPoints business due to business shutdowns by its clients. The first quarter has been traditionally the slowest quarter from a revenue perspective due to national holidays and customer planning cycles. This revenue seasonality will also typically impact the Companys profitability as most operating expenses are spread evenly throughout the year.

Revenue
ClearPoints revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $54,394 and $31,780, respectively, which represents an increase of $22,614 or 71%. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 included approximately $19,129 from ClearPoint Advantage, LLC, the wholly owned subsidiary that acquired certain assets and liabilities of ASG on February 23, 2007 (see Note 3 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). The
19
remaining increase of $3,485 was primarily due to the increase in revenue from the transportation and logistics operations and the Companys expanded offerings for human resource outsourcing business.
Cost of Services and Gross Profit
Cost of services consist of direct labor expenses for time charged directly to a client and related payroll taxes, unemployment and workers compensation insurance expenses, employee benefits, and other out-of-pocket expenses directly associated with the performance of the service to the client. ClearPoints cost of services for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $46,525 and $26,504, respectively, which represents an increase of $20,021, or 75.5%, which includes cost of services of $15,422 from the acquisition of ASG. ClearPoints gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $7,869 and $5,277, respectively, which represents an increase of $2,592 or 49.1%. As a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 ClearPoints gross profit was 14.5% and 16.6% respectively. The decrease in the overall gross profit percentage was primarily due to lower margin business of ASG and the organic growth in ClearPoints human resource outsourcing business which is priced to have lower margin but longer term contracts.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
ClearPoints selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $8,086 and $3,594, respectively, which represents an increase of $4,492 or 125%. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 include $5,505 from the acquisition of ASG with the remainder of $2,581 coming from the Companys previously existing administrative operations. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A increased from 11.3% to 14.9% over the comparative periods largely as a result of the factors discussed.
Restructuring Expenses
Effective June 29, 2007, the Company initiated a restructuring program of its field and administrative operations. As part of the restructuring program, the Company closed 24 branch and administrative offices and eliminated approximately 75 positions. The Company recorded $1,902 of restructuring charges for costs of severance, related benefits and outplacement services related to the termination of these employees and $950 of charges relating to the early termination of office space leases for a total of $2,852. This restructuring expense provision does not include any costs recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2007 for wages, benefits and other expenses for the eliminated positions. It also does not include any costs recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2007 for the closed operations, which are recorded in the SG&A expenses discussed above.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
ClearPoints depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $1,387 and $755, respectively, which represents an increase of $632 or 83.7%. This increase was primarily due to the amortization of contract rights and depreciation of fixed assets acquired from ASG of $898, offset by the reduction in contract rights amortized from the Companys previous acquisitions that were fully amortized in 2006.
Interest Expense
ClearPoints interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $537 and $972, respectively, which represents a decrease of $435, or 44.8%, primarily due to the reduced interest cost from the M&T Term Loan and Revolver compared to the Companys previous financing. During the same period, interest expense related to the change in warrant liability was $0 and $114 at June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, respectively.

Cost of Services and Gross Profit
Cost of services consist of direct labor expenses for time charged directly to a client and related payroll taxes, unemployment and workers compensation insurance expenses, employee benefits, and other out-of-pocket expenses directly associated with the performance of the service to the client. ClearPoints cost of services for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $73,467 and $45,793, respectively, which represents an increase of $27,674, or 60.4%, which include cost of services from ASG of $23,429. ClearPoints gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $13,776 and $9,746, respectively, which represents an increase of $4,030 or 41.4%. As a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 ClearPoints gross profit was 15.8% and 17.5%, respectively. The decrease in the overall gross profit percentage was primarily due to lower margin business of ASG and the organic growth in ClearPoints human resource outsourcing business which is priced to have lower margin but longer term contracts.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
ClearPoints selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $15,191 and $7,029, respectively, which represents an increase of $8,162 or 116.1%. SG&A expenses include approximately $6,956 from the acquisition of ASG effective February 23, 2007 and $6,632 from the ClearPoints previously existing administrative operations.

21
of new ClearPoint employees. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A increased from 12.7% to 17.4% over the comparative periods largely as a result of the factors discussed.

ClearPoints depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $2,526 and $1,531, respectively, which represents an increase of $995 or 65%. This increase is primarily due to the immediate amortization of deferred finance costs in the first quarter of $370 related to the payoff of Bridge Healthcare Finance (Bridge) revolver and term loan and the amortization of contract rights and depreciation of fixed assets acquired from ASG of $1,198, offset by the reduction in contract rights amortized from the Companys previous acquisitions that were fully amortized in 2006.
Interest Expense
ClearPoints interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $1,098 and $1,908, respectively, which represents a decrease of $810, or 42.5%, primarily due to the redemption of warrants on February 12, 2007 and reduced interest cost from the M&T Term Loan and Revolver compared to the Companys previous financing. Included in interest expense is expense relating to the amortization of the warrant discount further described below of $132 and $66 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which included the immediate amortization of the discount due to the payoff of the Bridge $10,000 term loan (for further description of the Bridge loan, see Note 10 to the Notes to ClearPoints Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, as filed on Form 8-K on April 5, 2007 and Note 12 to the Notes to ClearPoints Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). During the same period, interest expense related to the change in warrant liability was $0 and $114 at June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, respectively.
In connection with the $10,000 term loan at February 28, 2005, the Company simultaneously issued three detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9% of the Companys outstanding stock, on a fully diluted basis, at the exercise date at the exercise price of $0.001 per share. The warrants vested immediately upon issuance and may be exercised until February 28, 2015. The Company has accounted for the warrants issued to the investors as a liability under the provisions of FAS 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (FAS 150). The warrants were initially valued at $396 by an independent valuation company. This initial value has been recorded as debt discount and is being amortized over the three year life of the loan by the interest method. Amortization of $132 (the balance of the debt discount) and $66 has been recorded by the Company as interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The warrants are fair valued each reporting period and the increase/decrease reflected as interest expense/income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2006, the warrants were valued at $3,292. As a result of the Merger with Terra Nova, ClearPoint retired all outstanding debt with Bridge in the amount of $12,453 and paid an early debt retirement penalty in the
22
amount of $1,950 referred to in other expense below. Additionally, ClearPoint redeemed all outstanding warrants related to its credit facility with Bridge for a cash payment of $3,292 on February 12, 2007 from proceeds received as a result of the Merger. These warrants were no longer outstanding on June 30, 2007.
Other Income or Expense
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company incurred a prepayment penalty of $1,950 as a result of the early retirement of its Bridge debt on February 12, 2007.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, ClearPoints short and long-term liquidity needs have been financed primarily through cash generated by operating activities and through various forms of debt and equity financing. ClearPoints traditional use of cash flow is for funding payroll in advance of collecting revenue, particularly during periods of economic upswings and growth and during periods in which sales are seasonally high throughout the year. Temporary personnel are generally paid on a weekly basis while payments from customers are generally received 30 to 60 days after billing.
On February 12, 2007, ClearPoint consummated the Merger with Terra Nova. As a result, CPBR Acquisition, Inc. (CPBR), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Terra Nova, merged with and into ClearPoint. The parties to the Merger included Terra Nova, ClearPoint, CPBR and all of ClearPoints stockholders. At the closing of the Merger, the ClearPoint stockholders were issued an aggregate of 6,051,549 shares of Terra Nova common stock. Ten percent (10%) of the Terra Nova common stock being issued to the ClearPoint stockholders at the time of the Merger were placed into escrow to secure the indemnity rights of Terra Nova under the merger agreement and are governed by the terms of an escrow agreement. A further ten percent (10%) of the Terra Nova common stock being issued to the ClearPoint stockholders at the time of the Merger were placed into escrow to be released upon finalization of certain closing conditions pursuant to the merger agreement. The merger agreement also provides for ClearPoints original stockholders to receive additional performance payments, in the form of cash and/or shares, contingent upon the future performance of the combined companys share price. Upon the closing of the Merger, Terra Nova changed its name to ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc.
Upon consummation of the Merger, $30,600 was released from the Trust Fund to be used by the combined company. After payments totaling approximately $3,300 for professional fees and other direct and indirect costs related to the Merger, the net proceeds amounted to $27,300. The Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as a reverse acquisition in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, Terra Nova was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, this Merger was considered to be a capital transaction in substance. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of ClearPoint issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Terra Nova, accompanied by a recapitalization. All historical share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse acquisition of ClearPoint and related recapitalization.
As a result of the Merger with Terra Nova, ClearPoint retired all outstanding debt with Bridge in the amount of $12,453 and paid an early debt retirement penalty in the amount of $1,950. In addition, ClearPoint redeemed all outstanding warrants related to its credit facility with Bridge for a cash payment of $3,292.
On February 23, 2007, the Company entered into new credit facilities with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company consisting of a $20 million revolving credit facility (Revolver) expiring in February 2010 and a $3 million term loan (Term Loan) expiring in February 2012. These credit facilities bear an interest rate of LIBOR plus between 1.50% and 2.25%, depending on the Companys
23
ratio of debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. The balance at June 30, 2007 was $17,768 for the Revolver and $2,850 for the Term Loan. The M&T Revolver and Term Loan contain certain financial covenants including leverage ratios and a fixed charge coverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with the covenants at June 30, 2007.
On February 23, 2007, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of ALS, LLC and its subsidiaries, doing business as Advantage Services Group (ASG) based in Florida. The purchase price of $24,400 consisted of cash of $19,000, a note of $2,500, shares of the Companys common stock with a value of $2,500 (439,367 shares) and the assumption of $400 of current liabilities. ASGs stockholders may also receive up to two additional $1,000 payments in shares of the Companys common stock based on financial and integration performance metrics of the Company in calendar years 2007 and 2008.
On August 14, 2006, ClearPoint acquired 100% of the common stock of StaffBridge, Inc. for $233 in cash and a note payable of $450 due December 31, 2007. The note payable bears interest at 6% per annum and is payable quarterly. The balance at June 30, 2007 was $450.

Debt: As discussed under Liquidity and Capital Resources, ClearPoint has entered into various debt agreements with M&T, Blue Lake Rancheria and various stockholders with varying expiration dates in the years ending December 31, 2007 through December 31, 2012. ClearPoint has entered into a debt agreement with unrelated individuals in connection with the acquisition of StaffBridge, Inc. expiring December 31, 2007. ClearPoint has entered into a debt agreement with the former owners of ASG in connection with the acquisition of ASG, expiring October 23, 2008. Debt and notes payable that are subordinated to the M&T Revolver and Term Loan are classified in the balance sheet as long-term.
Operating Leases: ClearPoint leases offices and equipment under operating leases that expire over the next one to five years.
Retirement Benefits: Upon its acquisition of Quantum, ClearPoint assumed a stock purchase agreement dated December 30, 1986 with a former owner. The agreement called for the payment of retirement benefits in equal monthly payments, adjusted for the cost of living increases equal to the Consumer Price Index. The former owner is entitled to these benefits until his death. On the date of acquisition of Quantum on July 29, 2005, ClearPoint recorded a liability based upon the expected remaining life of the former owner, and made payments of $39 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and $37 for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Subsequent Events
On July 9, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement with KOR Capital, LLC (KOR), a Florida limited liability company controlled by Kevin ODonnell, a former officer of the Company,
26
pursuant to which the Company granted to KOR an exclusive right and license (i) to set up and operate, in parts of Northern California the Companys system and procedures for the operation of light industrial and clerical temporary staffing services and (ii) to use in connection with the operation of certain of the Companys proprietary intellectual property. In consideration for the grant and license, KOR is required to pay to the Company, on a weekly basis, a royalty equal to four and one half percent of all gross revenues earned by KOR from the operation. Through this relationship KOR will operate and manage up to seven of the Companys branches.
The Agreement provides that the Company will, directly or indirectly, process the weekly payroll for all temporary and contract staff placed on assignment by KOR and KORs weekly invoices. The Agreement has a term of 99 years, but is subject to earlier termination upon certain material breaches or defaults and it may only be assigned by KOR if the assignee satisfies certain financial, business experience and character criteria acceptable to the Company.
On August 13, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement with TZG Enterprises, LLC (TZG), a Delaware limited liability company controlled by J. Todd Warner, a former officer of the Company, pursuant to which the Company granted to TZG an exclusive right and license (i) to set up and operate the Companys system and procedures for the operation of transportation and light industrial temporary staffing services and (ii) to use in connection with the operation of certain of the Companys proprietary intellectual property. In consideration for the grant and license, TZG is required to pay to the Company, on a weekly basis, a royalty equal to six percent of all gross revenues earned by TZG from the operation. Through this relationship TZG will operate and manage up to twenty-five of the Companys branches.
The Agreement provides that the Company will, directly or indirectly, process the weekly payroll for all temporary and contract staff placed on assignment by TZG and TZGs weekly invoices. The Agreement has a term of 99 years, but is subject to earlier termination upon certain material breaches or defaults and it may only be assigned by TZG if the assignee satisfies certain financial, business experience and character criteria acceptable to the Company.
Contingencies and Litigation
In February of 2007, ClearPoint entered into a three party settlement agreement between ClearPoint, Westaff, Inc (Westaff) and 26 employees hired by ClearPoint who formerly worked for Westaff. The settlement arose out of lawsuits filed by Westaff against certain of those employees. The terms of the settlement required ClearPoint to make a one time cash payment of $266 to Westaff, plus legal fees of $56, and in return for such consideration Westaff agreed to release all 26 former employees of Westaff and now employed by ClearPoint from their non-compete and non-solicitation agreements that the employees had signed while employed by Westaff. As an additional term of the settlement agreement, ClearPoint agreed to cease the solicitation of Westaff employees. The total cost to the Company including legal expenses was $322 in the six months ended June 30, 2007.
The Company also hired a high level transportation sales executive. The former partner of the high level executive, threatened litigation against the Company based on covenants not to compete related to customers that the Company was soliciting. To settle the potential claim, the Company made a one-time cash payment of $80 in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 to the former partner of the transportation executive in exchange for fully settlement and release of all potential claims against the Company and the executive.
In the ordinary course of its business, ClearPoint is periodically threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits, claims and pending actions, and is typically engaged in various litigation from time to time. The principal risks that ClearPoint insures against are workers compensation, general liability, automobile liability, property damage, alternative staffing errors and omissions, fiduciary liability and fidelity losses. If a potential loss arising from these lawsuits, claims and actions is probable,
27
reasonably estimable, and is not an insured risk, ClearPoint records the estimated liability based on circumstances and assumptions existing at the time. Whereas management believes the recorded liabilities are adequate, there are inherent limitations in the estimation process whereby future actual losses may exceed projected losses, which could materially adversely affect the financial condition of ClearPoint.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has adopted FIN 48 and has determined that there is no material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 157 effective for periods beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
ClearPoints major financial market exposure is to changing interest rates. While certain portions of ClearPoints debt are at a fixed percentage interest rates, ClearPoints borrowings under its facilities with M&T vary based on changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2007, ClearPoint has total debt outstanding on these facilities of approximately $20,768. Changes in the LIBOR rate would have an impact on ClearPoints cash flows, and earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2007. For example, a 0.25% increase in the base rates would increase ClearPoints monthly interest expenses and negatively impact earnings and cash flows by approximately $4.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
ClearPoint, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of ClearPoints disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, ClearPoints disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to ClearPoints management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
28
ClearPoints principal executive officer and principal financial officer note that, due to human performance error, not a process deficiency, during the three months ended June 30, 2007, ClearPoint did not timely file a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing ClearPoints restructuring program. Such information is included in Part II, Item 5 Other Information of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The principal executive officer and principal financial officer also conducted an evaluation of changes in the internal control over financial reporting (Internal Control) to determine whether any changes in Internal Control occurred during the quarter (ClearPoints fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that have materially affected or which are reasonably likely to materially affect Internal Control. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the quarter covered by this report.
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within ClearPoint have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
| ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
The Company is engaged in various litigation from time to time in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on the financial conditions or results of operations of the Company.
| ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |

The risks described in such Form 8-K/A, as amended below, are not the only risks facing ClearPoint. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
Pursuant to a settlement agreement, we may no longer solicit employees from a significant competitor, which limits our ability to attract qualified personnel.

The settlement arose out of lawsuits filed by Westaff against certain of those employees. The terms of the settlement require us to cease the solicitation of Westaff employees. Our inability to solicit employees from this significant competitor will limit our ability to attract qualified personnel.
