Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements are comprised of the accounts of TeleTech, its wholly owned subsidiaries, its 55% equity owned subsidiary Percepta, LLC, and its 100% interest in iKnowtion, LLC effective January 2016 (see Note 12). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the consolidated cash flows of the Company. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded an additional tax expense of $1.1 million that should have been recorded in prior periods related to operations by an entity outside its country of incorporation.

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded an additional $2.9 million impairment to correct for an error in the goodwill impairment annual assessment and quarterly assessment for the WebMetro reporting unit. The Company should have recorded a $2.3 million impairment in the three months ended December 31, 2014 and an additional $0.6 million impairment in the three months ended September 30, 2015.

The Company has evaluated the aggregate impact of these adjustments and concluded that these adjustments were not material to the previously issued or current period consolidated financial statements.

These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including those related to derivatives and hedging activities, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, self-insurance reserves, litigation reserves, restructuring reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, contingent consideration, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. ASU 2014-09 provides new guidance related to how an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, ASU 2014-09 specifies new accounting for costs associated with obtaining or fulfilling contracts with customers and expands the required disclosures related to revenue and cash flows from contracts with customers. While ASU-2014-09 was originally effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Deferral of Effective Date”, deferring the effective date by one year, to be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. ASU 2014-09 can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption, with early application not permitted. The Company is currently determining its implementation approach and assessing the impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”. ASU 2015-03 requires all costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. Beginning in 2016, the Company has applied the new guidance as applicable and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets related to the rights and obligations created by those leases and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. The ASU also requires new disclosures regarding the amounts, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently assessing the impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”, which amends the existing accounting standards related to stock-based compensation. The ASU simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently determining its implementation approach and assessing the impact on the consolidated statements and related disclosures.

(2)ACQUISITIONS

rogenSi

In the third quarter of 2014, as an addition to the Customer Strategy Services (“CSS”) segment, the Company acquired substantially all operating assets of rogenSi Worldwide PTY, Ltd., a global leadership, change management, sales, performance training and consulting company.

The total purchase price was $34.4 million, subject to certain working capital adjustments, and consisted of $18.1 million in cash at closing and an estimated $14.5 million in three earn-out payments, contingent on the acquired companies and TeleTech’s CSS segment achieving certain agreed earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) targets, as defined in the sale and purchase agreement. Additionally, the estimated purchase price included a $1.8 million hold-back payment for contingencies as defined in the sale and purchase agreement which was paid in the first quarter of 2016. The total contingent consideration possible per the sale and purchase agreement ranges from zero to $17.6 million and the earn-out payments are payable in early 2015, 2016 and 2017, based on July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014, and full year 2015 and 2016 performance, respectively.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was measured by applying a probability weighted discounted cash flow model based on significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs). Key assumptions include a discount rate of 4.6% and expected future value of payments of $15.3 million. The $15.3 million of expected future payments was calculated using a probability weighted EBITDA assessment with the highest probability associated with rogenSi achieving the targeted EBITDA for each earn-out year. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent consideration was approximately $14.5 million. During the fourth quarter of 2014, the third quarter of 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company recorded fair value adjustments of the contingent consideration of $0.5 million, $0.8 million and $(0.3) million, respectively, based on revised estimates noting higher or lower probability of exceeding the EBITDA targets (see Note 7). As of June 30, 2016, the fair value of the remaining contingent consideration was $4.2 million, of which $4.2 million was included in Other accrued expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Sofica

In the first quarter of 2014, as an addition to the Customer Management Services (“CMS”) segment, the Company acquired a 100% interest in Sofica Group, a Bulgarian joint stock company (“Sofica”). Sofica provides customer lifecycle management and other business process services across multiple channels in multiple sites in over 18 languages.

The purchase price of $14.2 million included $9.4 million in cash consideration (including working capital adjustments) and an estimated $3.8 million in earn-out payments, payable in 2015 and 2016, contingent on Sofica achieving specified EBITDA targets, as defined by the stock purchase agreement. The total contingent consideration possible per the stock purchase agreement ranged from zero to $7.5 million. Additionally, the purchase price included a $1.0 million hold-back payment for contingencies, as defined in the stock purchase agreement, which was paid in the first quarter of 2016.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was measured based on significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs). Key assumptions include a discount rate of 5.0% and expected future value of payments of $4.0 million. The $4.0 million of expected future payments was calculated using a probability weighted EBITDA assessment with the highest probability associated with Sofica achieving the targeted EBITDA for each earn-out year. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent consideration was approximately $3.8 million. During the third and fourth quarters of 2014, the Company recorded fair value adjustments of the contingent consideration of $1.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, based on revised estimates noting higher probability of exceeding the EBITDA targets (see Note 7). During the second quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a negative fair value adjustment for contingent consideration of $0.5 million based on revised estimates noting lower profitability than initially estimated. As of June 30, 2016, all of the contingent consideration has been paid.

(6)DERIVATIVES

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company enters into foreign exchange and interest rate related derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives entered into consist of forward and option contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are associated with forecasted revenue earned in foreign locations. Interest rate derivatives consist of interest rate swaps to reduce the Company’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with its variable rate debt. Upon proper qualification, these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. It is the Company’s policy to only enter into derivative contracts with investment grade counterparty financial institutions, and correspondingly, the fair value of derivative assets consider, among other factors, the creditworthiness of these counterparties. Conversely, the fair value of derivative liabilities reflects the Company’s creditworthiness. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has not experienced, nor does it anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults. The following table summarizes the aggregate unrealized net gain or loss in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands and net of tax):

(7)FAIR VALUE

The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires that the Company maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The following presents information as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 for the Company’s assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the fair value hierarchy used to determine their fair value.

Accounts Receivable and Payable - The amounts recorded in the accompanying balance sheets approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

Investments – The Company measures investments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The fair values of these investments are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include market observable inputs, and discounted cash flow projections. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than-temporary. As of June 30, 2016, the investment, which consists of the Company’s first quarter 2015 $9.0 million investment in CaféX Communication, Inc., continues to be recorded at $9.0 million.

Debt - The Company’s debt consists primarily of the Company’s Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 10), which permits floating-rate borrowings based upon the current Prime Rate or LIBOR plus a credit spread as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio calculation (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $135.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement. During the second quarter of 2016 outstanding borrowings accrued interest at an average rate of 1.5% per annum, excluding unused commitment fees. The amounts recorded in the accompanying Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the debt.

Derivatives - Net derivative assets (liabilities) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The portfolio is valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, interest rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk, including the ability of each party to execute its obligations under the contract. As of June 30, 2016, credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts.

Deferred Compensation Plan — The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan structured as a Rabbi trust for certain eligible employees. Participants in the deferred compensation plan select from a menu of phantom investment options for their deferral dollars offered by the Company each year, which are based upon changes in value of complementary, defined market investments. The deferred compensation liability represents the combined values of market investments against which participant accounts are tracked.

Contingent Consideration — The Company recorded contingent consideration related to the acquisitions of iKnowtion, Sofica and rogenSi. These contingent payables were recognized at fair value using a discounted cash flow approach and a discount rate of 21.0%, 5.0% or 4.6%, respectively. The discount rates vary dependant on the specific risks of each acquisition including the country of operation, the nature of services and complexity of the acquired business, and other similar factors. These measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The Company will record interest expense each period using the effective interest method until the future value of these contingent payables reaches their expected future value of $4.3 million. Interest expense related to all recorded contingent payables is included in Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a fair value adjustment of the contingent consideration associated with the Sofica reporting unit within the CMS segment based on revised estimates reflecting Sofica earnings would be lower than revised estimates for 2015. Accordingly a $0.5 million decrease in the payable was recorded as of June 30, 2015 and was included in Other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

During the third and fourth quarters of 2015, the Company recorded fair value adjustments of the contingent consideration associated with the rogenSi reporting unit within the CSS segment based on revised estimates reflecting rogenSi earnings would be higher and then lower than anticipated for 2015. Accordingly a $0.5 million increase and a $0.3 million decrease to the payable was recorded as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and was included in Other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

(8)INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting literature for income taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of transactions that have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Quarterly, the Company assesses the likelihood that its net deferred tax assets will be recovered. Based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a future tax benefit will not be realized.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recorded a liability during the second quarter of 2015 of $1.75 million and during the first quarter of 2016 of $1.1 million, inclusive of penalties and interest, for uncertain tax positions. See Note 1 for further information on these items.

During the second quarter of 2016, $0.3 million of liability was released due to the closing of a statute of limitations.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had $48.0 million of gross deferred tax assets (after a $10.0 million valuation allowance) and net deferred tax assets (after deferred tax liabilities) of $44.5 million related to the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions whose recoverability is dependent upon future profitability.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was 19.1% and 23.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was 33.6% and 25.6%, respectively.

(UNAUDITED)

The Company’s U.S. income tax returns filed for the tax years ending December 31, 2012 to present remain open tax years. The Company has been notified of the intent to audit, or is currently under audit, of income taxes for rogenSi in Hong Kong for the tax year 2014, Canada for tax years 2009 and 2010 and New Zealand for tax year the 2013. Although the outcome of examinations by taxing authorities are always uncertain, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of these audits will not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has successfully closed their audit in the U.S. for the acquired entity Technology Solutions Group for the tax year 2012 (prior to acquisition), with no changes.

The Company has been granted “Tax Holidays” as an incentive to attract foreign investment by the governments of the Philippines and Costa Rica. Generally, a Tax Holiday is an agreement between the Company and a foreign government under which the Company receives certain tax benefits in that country, such as exemption from taxation on profits derived from export-related activities. In the Philippines, the Company has been granted multiple agreements with an initial period of four years and additional periods for varying years, expiring at various times between 2011 and 2020. The aggregate effect on income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was approximately $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively, which had a favorable impact on diluted net income per share of $0.02 and $0.03, respectively. The aggregate effect on income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was approximately $3.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively, which had a favorable impact on diluted net income per share of $0.07 and $0.08, respectively.

(9)RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND IMPAIRMENT LOSSES

Restructuring Charges

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company continued restructuring activities primarily associated with reductions in the Company’s capacity, workforce and related management in three of the segments to better align the capacity and workforce with current business needs.

Impairment Losses

During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain delivery centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group’s carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized no losses related to leasehold improvement assets.

(10)COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit Facility

On February 11, 2016, the Company entered into a First Amendment to our June 3, 2013 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Amended and Restated Security Agreement (collectively the “Credit Agreement”) for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility that matures on February 11, 2021 with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $900.0 million, and an accordion feature of up to $1.2 billion in the aggregate, if certain conditions are satisfied.

Base rate loans bear interest at a rate equal to the greatest of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime rate, (ii) one half of 1% in excess of the federal funds effective rate, and (iii) 1.25% in excess of the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”); plus in each case a margin of 0% to 0.75 based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Eurodollar loans bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.0% to 1.75% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Alternate currency loans bear interest at rates applicable to their respective currencies.

The Company is obligated to maintain a maximum net leverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00, and a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.50 to 1.00.

As of June 30, 2016, outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Agreement totaled $3.4 million and primarily guaranteed workers’ compensation and other insurance related obligations. As of June 30, 2016, letters of credit and contract performance guarantees issued outside of the Credit Agreement totaled $5.4 million.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company has been involved in legal actions, both as plaintiff and defendant, which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for exposures associated with such legal actions to the extent that losses are deemed both probable and reasonably estimable. To the extent specific reserves have not been made for certain legal proceedings, their ultimate outcome, and consequently, an estimate of possible loss, if any, cannot reasonably be determined at this time.

Based on currently available information and advice received from counsel, the Company believes that the disposition or ultimate resolution of any current legal proceedings, except as otherwise specifically reserved for in its financial statements, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

(12)MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

The Company held an 80% interest in iKnowtion until January 1, 2016 when the additional 20% was purchased. In the event iKnowtion met certain EBITDA targets for calendar year 2015, the purchase and sale agreement required TeleTech to purchase the remaining 20% interest in iKnowtion in 2016 for an amount equal to a multiple of iKnowtion’s 2015 EBITDA as defined in the purchase and sale agreement. These terms represented a contingent redemption feature which the Company determined was probable of being achieved.

Based on final EBITDA for 2015, the payment for the remaining 20% was completed in April 2016 for the value shown in the table below in accordance with the purchase and sale agreement.

The Company recorded the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest at the redemption value based on the corresponding EBITDA multiples as prescribed in the purchase and sale agreement at the end of each reporting period. At the end of each reporting period the changes in the redemption value are recorded in retained earnings. Since the EBITDA multiples as defined in the purchase and sale agreement are below the current market multiple, the Company has determined that there is no preferential treatment to the noncontrolling interest shareholders resulting in no impact to earnings per share.

A rollforward of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is included in the table below (in thousands).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Summary

TeleTech Holdings, Inc. (“TeleTech”, “the Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a customer engagement management service provider that delivers integrated consulting, technology, growth and customer care solutions on a global scale. Our suite of products and services allows us to design and deliver engaging, outcome-based customer experiences across numerous interaction channels. Our solutions are supported by 41,500 employees delivering services in 24 countries from 73 delivery centers on six continents. Our revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $305 million.

Since our establishment in 1982, we have helped clients strengthen their customer relationships, brand recognition and loyalty through customer engagement solutions. We deliver thought leadership, technology and innovation that create customer strategies designed to differentiate our clients from their competition; data analytics that personalize interactions and increase customer value; and integration services that connect clients’ customer relationship management (“CRM”) system to a cloud-based collaboration platform, leading to customer interactions that are seamless and relevant.

Our services are value-oriented, outcome-based, and delivered on a global scale across all of our business segments: Customer Management Services (“CMS”), Customer Growth Services (“CGS”), Customer Technology Services (“CTS”) and Customer Strategy Services (“CSS”). Our integrated customer experience managed services platform differentiates the Company by combining strategic consulting, data analytics, process optimization, system design and integration, operational excellence, and technology solutions and services.

We have developed tailored expertise in the automotive, communications, financial services, government, healthcare, logistics, media and entertainment, retail, technology, travel and transportation industries. We target customer-focused industry leaders in the Global 1000 and serve approximately 300 global clients.

To improve our competitive position in a rapidly changing market and stay strategically relevant to our clients, we continue to invest in innovation and growth businesses, diversifying our traditional business process outsourcing services of our CMS segment into higher-value consulting, data analytics, digital marketing and technology-enabled services. Of the $305.1 million in revenue we reported in the current period, approximately 30% or $92.3 million came from the CGS, CTS and CSS segments (our “Emerging Segments”), focused on customer-centric strategy, growth and technology-based services, with the remainder of our revenue coming from our CMS contact center business.

Our strong balance sheet, cash flows from operations and access to debt and capital markets have historically provided us the financial flexibility to effectively fund our organic growth, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and incremental investments. Additionally, we continue to return capital to our shareholders via an ongoing stock repurchase program and regular semi-annual dividends. As of June 30, 2016, our cumulative authorized repurchase allowance was $712.3 million, of which we repurchased 44.1 million shares for $678.9 million. For the period from June 30, 2016 through July 27, 2016, we repurchased 204 thousand additional shares. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date.

On February 24, 2015, our Board of Directors adopted a dividend policy, with the intent to distribute a periodic cash dividend to stockholders of our common stock, after consideration of, among other things, TeleTech’s performance, cash flows, capital needs and liquidity factors. Given our cash flow generation and balance sheet strength, we believe cash dividends and early returns to shareholders through share repurchases, in balance with our investments in innovation and strategic acquisitions, align shareholder interests with the needs of the Company. The initial dividend of $0.18 per common share was paid on March 16, 2015 to shareholders of record as of March 6, 2015. A second dividend of $0.18 per common share was paid on October 14, 2015 to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2015. A third dividend of $0.185 per common share was paid on April 15, 2016 to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2016.

Our Integrated Service Offerings and Business Segments

We have four operating and reportable segments, which provide an integrated set of services including:

26

Table of Contents

Customer Strategy Services

We typically begin by engaging our clients at a strategic level. Through our strategy, change management and analytics-driven consulting expertise, we help our clients design, build and execute their customer engagement strategies. We help our clients to better understand and predict their customers’ behaviors and preferences along with their current and future economic value. Using proprietary analytic models, we provide the insight clients need to build the business case for customer centricity, to better optimize their marketing spend and then work alongside them to help implement our recommendations. A key component of this segment involves instilling a high performance culture through management and leadership alignment and process optimization.

Customer Technology Services

Once the design of the customer engagement is completed, our ability to architect, deploy and host or manage the client’s customer management environment becomes a key enabler to achieving and sustaining the client’s customer engagement vision. Given the proliferation of mobile communication technologies and devices, we enable our clients’ operations to interact with their customers across the growing array of channels including email, social networks, mobile, web, SMS text, voice and chat. We design, implement and manage cloud, on-premise or hybrid customer management environments to deliver a consistent and superior experience across all touch points on a global scale that we believe result in higher quality, lower costs and reduced risk for our clients. Through our proprietary Humanify™ technology, we also provide data-driven context aware SaaS-based solutions that link customers seamlessly and directly to appropriate resources, any time and across any channel.

Customer Management Services

We design and manage clients’ front-to-back office processes to deliver just-in-time, personalized, multi-channel interactions. Our front-office solutions seamlessly integrate voice, chat, email, e-commerce and social media to optimize the customer experience for our clients. In addition, we manage certain client back-office processes to enhance their customer-centric view of relationships and maximize operating efficiencies. Our delivery of integrated business processes via our onshore, offshore or work-from-home associates reduces operating costs and allows customer needs to be met more quickly and efficiently, resulting in higher satisfaction, brand loyalty and a stronger competitive position for our clients.

Customer Growth Services

We offer integrated sales and marketing solutions to help our clients boost revenue in new, fragmented or underpenetrated business-to-consumer or business-to-business markets. We deliver approximately $2 billion in client revenue annually via the acquisition, growth and retention of customers through a combination of our highly trained, client-dedicated sales professionals and our proprietary Revana Analytic Multichannel PlatformTM. This platform continuously aggregates individual customer information across all channels into one holistic view so as to ensure more relevant and personalized communications. As a result of our acquisition of the digital agency Web Metro, we have developed an integrated marketing-to-sales platform that links online searches to live sales through a closed loop, multichannel interface. This platform uses proprietary tools and methodology to capture and use more than 400 marketing and sales data points to engage with customers in relevant conversations.

Based on our clients’ requirements, we provide our services on an integrated cross-business segment and on a discrete basis.

In the second quarter of 2016, our revenue decreased 1.6% to $305.1 million over the same period in 2015 including a decrease of 2.7% or $8.5 million due to foreign currency fluctuations, primarily the Australian dollar and the Brazilian Real. This decrease in revenue is comprised of growth of 21% in the CGS segment offset by a decrease in the CMS segment primarily due to foreign currency fluctuations and lower volumes in the CSS segment due to decreases in our Middle East consulting business in connection with macro-economic trends. Revenue, adjusted for the $8.5 million decrease related to foreign exchange, increased by $3.4 million, or 1.1%, over the prior year.

Our second quarter 2016 income from operations decreased 30.5% to $16.2 million or 5.3% of revenue, from $23.4 million or 7.5% of revenue in the second quarter of 2015. This decrease is primarily due to lower capacity utilization, the adverse impact of foreign exchange fluctuations and lower CSS revenue. Income from operations in the second quarter of 2016 and 2015 included $0.1 million and $0.2 million of restructuring charges and asset impairments, respectively.

Our offshore delivery centers serve clients based in the U.S. and in other countries and spans five countries with 22,650 workstations, representing 63% of our global delivery capability. Revenue for our CMS and CGS segments that is provided in these offshore locations was $104 million and represented 42% of our revenue for the second quarter of 2016, as compared to $112 million and 44% of our revenue for 2015.

Our cash flow from operations and available credit allowed us to finance a significant portion of our capital needs and stock repurchases through internally generated cash flows. At June 30, 2016, we had $55.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, total debt of $146.2 million, and a total debt to total capitalization ratio of 25.6%.

We internally target capacity utilization in our delivery centers at 80% to 90% of our available workstations. As of June 30, 2016, the overall capacity utilization in our centers was 70%. The table below presents workstation data for all of our centers as of June 30, 2016 and 2015. Our utilization percentage is defined as the total number of utilized production workstations compared to the total number of available production workstations.

Total multi-client centers |  | 35,775 |  | 24,994 |  | 70 | % | 32,402 |  | 24,888 |  | 77 | %

The reduction in utilization in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015 is due to the fact that we have transitioned staff from existing sites in the Philippines to a dedicated Supersite for a large client and have not fully backfilled the utilization with new client work at the existing sites.

While we continue to see demand from all geographic regions to utilize our offshore delivery capabilities and expect this trend to continue with our clients, some of our clients have regulatory pressures to bring the services onshore to the United States. In light of these trends we plan to continue to selectively retain and grow capacity and expand into new offshore markets, while maintaining appropriate capacity in the United States. As we grow our offshore delivery capabilities and our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations increases, we continue to actively manage this risk via a multi-currency hedging program designed to minimize operating margin volatility.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We regularly review our estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions, which are based upon historical experience and on various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Reported amounts and disclosures may have been different had management used different estimates and assumptions or if different conditions had occurred in the periods presented. For further information, please refer to the discussion of all critical accounting policies in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The decrease in revenue for the Customer Management Services segment was attributable to a $4.3 million net increase in client programs offset by program completions of $3.1 million. Revenue was further impacted by a $7.7 million reduction due to foreign currency fluctuations, primarily the Australian dollar and the Brazilian Real.

The operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 3.9% in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to 6.1% in the prior period. The operating margin decreased due to an increased ratio of revenue generated from our onshore vs. offshore delivery centers, the adverse impact of foreign currency fluctuations and lower capacity utilization. Included in the operating income was amortization related to acquired intangibles of $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Interest Income (Expense)

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 interest income decreased to $0.3 million from $0.4 million in the same period in 2015. Interest expense increased to $1.8 million during 2016 from $1.7 million during 2015 primarily due to higher outstanding balances on the Credit Facility.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 19.1%. This compares to an effective tax rate of 33.6% for the comparable period of 2015. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was influenced by earnings in international jurisdictions currently under an income tax holiday and the distribution of income between the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions. Without $0.3 million of benefit related to uncertain tax positions, $1.0 million of expense related to valuation allowances, $0.1 million of expense related to tax rate changes, and $0.7 million of expense related to return to provision adjustments, the Company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2016 would have been 9.1%.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was 23.4%. This compares to an effective tax rate of 25.6% for the comparable period of 2015. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was influenced by earnings in international jurisdictions currently under an income tax holiday and the distribution of income between the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions. Without $0.8 million of expense related to a reserve for uncertain tax positions, $0.7 million of expense related to return to provision, and $0.9 million of expense related to valuation allowances, the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 would have been 15.9%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash generated from operations, our cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings under our Credit Facility. During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, we generated positive operating cash flows of $53.0 million. We believe that our cash generated from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, and available credit will be sufficient to meet expected operating and capital expenditure requirements for the next 12 months.

We manage a centralized global treasury function in the United States with a focus on concentrating and safeguarding our global cash and cash equivalents. While the majority of our cash is held outside the U.S., we prefer to hold U.S. Dollars in addition to the local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries. We expect to use our offshore cash to support working capital and growth of our foreign operations. While there are no assurances, we believe our global cash is protected given our cash management practices, banking partners and utilization of diversified, high quality investments.

We have global operations that expose us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that may positively or negatively impact our liquidity. We are also exposed to higher interest rates associated with our variable rate debt. To mitigate these risks, we enter into foreign exchange forward and option contracts and interest rate swaps through our cash flow hedging program. Please refer to Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, Foreign Currency Risk, for further discussion.

The following discussion highlights our cash flow activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all liquid investments purchased within 90 days of their original maturity to be cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $55.3 million and $60.3 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. We diversify the holdings of such cash and cash equivalents considering the financial condition and stability of the counterparty institutions.

We reinvest our cash flows to grow our client base, expand our infrastructure, for investment in research and development, for strategic acquisitions, for the purchase of our outstanding stock and to pay dividends.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, net cash flows provided by operating activities was $53.0 million and $85.5 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to $15.3 million in cash paid for prepaid assets and a $34.7 million increase in payments made for operating expenses, offset by a $14.8 million increase in cash collected from accounts receivable.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we reported net cash flows used in investing activities of $28.1 million and $40.2 million, respectively. The decrease was due to a $1.8 million decrease in capital expenditures and the $9.0 million investment made during the first six months of 2016.

Table of Contents

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we reported net cash flows used in financing activities of $28.0 million and $21.4 million, respectively. The change in net cash flows from 2015 to 2016 was primarily due to a $20.0 million increase in the Credit Facility, a decrease in the contingent consideration and hold-back acquisition payments, offset by a $23.9 million increase in purchases of our outstanding common stock, and $1.8 million paid for debt reissuance costs.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow (see “Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements” below for the definition of free cash flow) decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015 due to the decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities offset by an decrease in capital expenditures. Free cash flow was $25.3 million and $56.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measurement. We believe that free cash flow is useful to our investors because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available for debt obligations and investments other than purchases of property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow is not a measure determined by GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for “income from operations,” “net income,” “net cash provided by operating activities,” or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe this non-GAAP liquidity measure is useful, in addition to the most directly comparable GAAP measure of “net cash provided by operating activities,” because free cash flow includes investments in operational assets. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash available for discretionary expenditures, since it includes cash required for debt service. Free cash flow also includes cash that may be necessary for acquisitions, investments and other needs that may arise.

The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow for our consolidated results (in thousands):

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,

| · |  | Contractual obligations to be paid in a foreign currency are translated at the period end exchange rate.

| · |  | Purchase obligations primarily consist of outstanding purchase orders for goods or services not yet received, which are not recognized as liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets until such goods and/or services are received.

| · |  | The contractual obligation table excludes our liabilities of $4.6 million related to uncertain tax positions because we cannot reliably estimate the timing of cash payments.

Our outstanding debt is primarily associated with the use of funds under our Credit Agreement to fund working capital, repurchase our common stock, pay dividends, and for other cash flow needs across our global operations.

Future Capital Requirements

We expect total capital expenditures in 2016 to be approximately 4.5% of revenue. Approximately 65% of these expected capital expenditures are to support growth in our business and 35% relate to the maintenance for existing assets. The anticipated level of 2016 capital expenditures is primarily driven by new client contracts and the corresponding requirements for additional delivery center capacity as well as enhancements to our technological infrastructure.

The amount of capital required over the next 12 months will depend on our levels of investment in infrastructure necessary to maintain, upgrade or replace existing assets. Our working capital and capital expenditure requirements could also increase materially in the event of acquisitions or joint ventures, among other factors. These factors could require that we raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital upon commercially reasonable terms acceptable to us.

Client Concentration

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, one of our clients represented 10.2% of our total revenue. Our five largest clients accounted for 35.9% and 36.3% of our consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our five largest clients accounted for 35.5% and 36.3% of our consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We have experienced long-term relationships with our top five clients, ranging from 10 to 20 years, with the majority of these clients having completed multiple contract renewals with us. The relative contribution of any single client to consolidated earnings is not always proportional to the relative revenue contribution on a consolidated basis and varies greatly based upon specific contract terms. In addition, clients may adjust business volumes served by us based on their business requirements. We believe the risk of this concentration is mitigated, in part, by the long-term contracts we have with our largest clients. Although certain client contracts may be terminated for convenience by either party, we believe this risk is mitigated, in part, by the service level disruptions and transition/migration costs that would arise for our clients.

The contracts with our five largest clients expire between 2017 and 2020. Additionally, a particular client may have multiple contracts with different expiration dates. We have historically renewed most of our contracts with our largest clients. However, there is no assurance that future contracts will be renewed, or if renewed, will be on terms as favorable as the existing contracts.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows due to adverse changes in financial and commodity market prices and rates. Market risk also includes credit and non-performance risk by counterparties to our various financial instruments. We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates (as measured against the U.S. dollar); as well as credit risk associated with potential non-performance of our counterparty banks. These exposures are directly related to our normal operating and funding activities. We enter into derivative instruments to manage and reduce the impact of currency exchange rate changes, primarily between the U.S. dollar/Canadian dollar, the U.S. dollar/Philippine peso, the U.S. dollar/Mexican peso, and the Australian dollar/Philippine peso. We enter into interest rate derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our variable rate debt. To mitigate against credit and non-

35

Table of Contents

performance risk, it is our policy to only enter into derivative contracts and other financial instruments with investment grade counterparty financial institutions and, correspondingly, our derivative valuations reflect the creditworthiness of our counterparties. As of the date of this report, we have not experienced, nor do we anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults.

Interest Rate Risk

We entered into interest rate derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our variable rate debt. The interest rate on our Credit Agreement is variable based upon the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds rate, or LIBOR and, therefore, is affected by changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2016, we had $135.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Based upon average outstanding borrowings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, interest accrued at a rate of approximately 1.5% per annum. If the Prime Rate or LIBOR increased by 100 basis points during the quarter, there would be a $1.0 million of additional interest expense per $100.0 million of outstanding borrowing under the Credit Agreement.

The Company’s interest rate swap arrangements as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows:

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Contract |  | Contract |
|  | Notional |  | Variable Rate |  | Fixed Rate |  | Commencement |  | Maturity |
As of June 30, 2016: |  | Amount |  | Received |  | Paid |  | Date |  | Date |
Swap 2 |  |  | 15 million |  | 1 - month LIBOR |  | 3.14 | % | May 2012 |  | May 2017 |
|  | $ | 15 million |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
As of December 31, 2015: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Swap 1 |  | $ | 25 million |  | 1 - month LIBOR |  | 2.55 | % | April 2012 |  | April 2016 |
Swap 2 |  |  | 15 million |  | 1 - month LIBOR |  | 3.14 | % | May 2012 |  | May 2017 |
|  | $ | 40 million |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Foreign Currency Risk

Our subsidiaries in Bulgaria, Canada, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Philippines use the local currency as their functional currency for paying labor and other operating costs. Conversely, revenue for these foreign subsidiaries is derived principally from client contracts that are invoiced and collected in U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies. As a result, we may experience foreign currency gains or losses, which may positively or negatively affect our results of operations attributed to these subsidiaries. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, revenue associated with this foreign exchange risk was 32% and 30% of our consolidated revenue, respectively.

In order to mitigate the risk of these non-functional foreign currencies weakening against the functional currencies of the servicing subsidiaries, which thereby decreases the economic benefit of performing work in these countries, we may hedge a portion, though not 100%, of the projected foreign currency exposure related to client programs served from these foreign countries through our cash flow hedging program. While our hedging strategy can protect us from adverse changes in foreign currency rates in the short term, an overall weakening of the non-functional foreign currencies would adversely impact margins in the segments of the servicing subsidiary over the long term.

Cash Flow Hedging Program

To reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with forecasted revenue in non-functional currencies, we purchase forward and/or option contracts to acquire the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary at a fixed exchange rate at specific dates in the future. We have designated and account for these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges for forecasted revenue in non-functional currencies.

While we have implemented certain strategies to mitigate risks related to the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, we cannot ensure that we will not recognize gains or losses from international transactions, as this is part of transacting business in an international environment. Not every exposure is or can be hedged and, where hedges are put in place based on expected foreign exchange exposure, they are based on forecasts

for which actual results may differ from the original estimate. Failure to successfully hedge or anticipate currency risks properly could adversely affect our consolidated operating results.

| (1) |  | Includes contracts to purchase Philippine pesos in exchange for New Zealand dollars and Australian dollars, which are translated into equivalent U.S. dollars on June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The fair value of our cash flow hedges at June 30, 2016 was assets/(liabilities) (in thousands):

|  |  |  |  | Maturing in the |
|  | June 30, 2016 |  | Next 12 Months |
Philippine Peso |  |  | (14,209) |  |  | (8,945) |
Mexican Peso |  |  | (28,172) |  |  | (11,188) |
|  | $ | (42,381) |  | $ | (20,133) |

Our cash flow hedges are valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk. The increase in fair value from December 31, 2015 largely reflects a broad weakening in the U.S. dollar.

We recorded net losses of approximately $11.8 million and $4.2 million for settled cash flow hedge contracts and the related premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These losses were reflected in Revenue in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). If the exchange rates between our various currency pairs were to increase or decrease by 10% from current period-end levels, we would incur a material gain or loss on the contracts. However, any gain or loss would be mitigated by corresponding increases or decreases in our underlying exposures.

Other than the transactions hedged as discussed above and in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the majority of the transactions of our U.S. and foreign operations are denominated in their respective local currency. However, transactions are denominated in other currencies from time-to-time. We do not currently engage in hedging activities related to these types of foreign currency risks because we believe them to be insignificant as we endeavor to settle these accounts on a timely basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, approximately 21% and 23%, respectively, of revenue was derived from contracts denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Our results from operations and revenue could be adversely affected if the U.S. Dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies.

Fair Value of Debt and Equity Securities

We did not have any investments in marketable debt or equity securities as of June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) required by Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as amended) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Management of the Company, with the participation of its CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period. Based on that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

At the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting which continued to exist as of June 30, 2016. These material weaknesses are fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

While these material weaknesses did not result in errors that were material to our annual or interim financial statements, they could result in misstatements of our consolidated financial statements and disclosures which would result in material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements and disclosures which would not be prevented or detected.

Notwithstanding such material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Our management, including the CEO and CFO, believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of internal control are met. Further, the design of internal controls must consider the benefits of controls relative to their costs. Inherent limitations within internal controls include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures. While the objective of the design of any system of controls is to provide reasonable assurance of the effectiveness of controls, such design is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and such assumptions, while reasonable, may not take into account all potential future conditions. Thus, even effective internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Therefore, because of the inherent limitations in cost effective internal controls, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be prevented or detected.

Remediation Plan for Material Weakness

Building on its efforts during 2015 and the first quarter of 2016, our management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of our board of directors, continued in the second quarter of 2016 to dedicate significant resources and efforts to improve our control environment and take steps to remediate the material weaknesses identified. While certain remedial actions have been completed, we continue to actively implement additional control procedures. The remediation efforts taken in 2016, outlined below, and previously taken in 2015, as outlined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, are intended both to address the identified material weaknesses and to enhance our overall financial control environment.

Remediation Actions for Control Environment:

| · |  | We hired additional personnel and established appropriate roles and responsibilities within our global finance and accounting organization to improve our knowledge and expertise over financial reporting. Since mid-year 2015, we have been actively upgrading key accounting leadership personnel in the United States, Philippines, and Mexico. Our focus is on upgrading personnel that have responsibilities for the knowledge of and technical expertise in US GAAP. In the last year we appointed a VP accounting operations, two assistant controllers with responsibility for our reporting segments, and additional technical accounting staff. We are also in the process of reviewing our financial reporting function and the need for additional senior staff with significant public company experience who will have accountability for all SEC reporting, US GAAP technical accounting issues, and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.

| · |  | In addition, we engaged an independent third party expert to assist us in our review of our control structure, including a comprehensive risk assessment with respect to our internal controls, and to provide constructive recommendations for optimization of our controls and control environment, including our implementation of a periodic monitoring process for the design and operating effectiveness of our control activities. We are in the process of implementing these expert recommendations and upgrading our control structure. We anticipate that this upgrade will be completed in 2016, but we can provide no assurance as to the timing of when the material weaknesses will be remediated as a result of these changes.

| · |  | We have implemented a comprehensive training for our accounting managers designed to provide our personnel with knowledge, experience, and training in the application of generally accepted accounting principles commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. We plan to include a program of continuous education for our new staff and refresher courses for existing staff on a going forward basis.

Remediation Actions for Account Reconciliations

| · |  | Beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we implemented enhanced control procedures over our reconciliation process.

| · |  | Beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2015, we implemented additional balance sheet and income statement analytic controls designed to further enhance our controls and detect any material misstatements.

Remediation Actions for Journal Entries

| · |  | We have reviewed our accounting system configuration and are implementing the necessary system controls to eliminate the ability for a user to create and post a journal entry.

| · |  | We have integrated our acquired companies onto our accounting system which has system controls to prevent a user from posting and approving their own journal entries.

Remediation Actions for Revenue Processes

| · |  | We are optimizing our revenue accounting organization structure to improve our control environment including the establishment of a revenue quality assurance organization.

Table of Contents

| · |  | We are implementing enhanced control procedures and additional controls over our revenue process including, but not limited to, system controls and specific transaction controls.

Remediation for Impairment

| · |  | We engaged a third party expert to assist in our review of the completeness and accuracy of our valuation methodology and will continue to apply the enhancements in our valuation models on a going forward basis.

| · |  | We assessed, developed and are in the process of implementing specific guidance and procedures for the expected level of reviews to be performed in connection with valuation models that we use for impairment testing, including consideration of the data and assumptions used in these models.

These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

We are designing and implementing the measures described above with the goal of remediation of the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthening our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
