ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY: |
ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY: | ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY: A major customer is defined as a customer from which the Company derives at least 10% of its revenues. In each of the fiscal years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, revenue from the U.S. Government accounted, either directly or in-directly, for 100% of total revenue. Our largest service line is healthcare, which accounted for approximately 54% of revenue in fiscal years 2013 and 2012. Within the U.S. Government, our largest customer in fiscal 2013 continued to be the DVA, accounting for 96% of revenue in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, with whom the Company held over a dozen contracts and/or task orders for logistics, pharmaceutical, and medical services, all subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations. In September 2013, DLH was awarded seven task orders to provide logistics services to the Department of Veterans Affairs Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy (CMOP). The maximum value of the award for the expected five year term, comprised of a base year and four one year options, is estimated at $133 million (unaudited). During fiscal 2011, the Company was awarded work of up to $145 million (unaudited) for pharmaceutical and other medical services during a period of up to 5 years which both retained and expanded its business with the DVA. Accordingly, DLH Solutions remains particularly dependent on the continuation of its relationship with the DVA. The largest component of the awards discussed above comprised the award in May 2011 to DLH Solutions of a competitively bid Blanket Purchase Agreement contract with the DVA for pharmaceutical services which retains and expands work that accounted for approximately 53% of revenues for fiscal 2013. Work under the new contract began on November 1, 2011 and is expected to continue for up to 5 years and generate revenue of up to $145 million (unaudited). In September 2013, DLH was awarded seven task orders to provide logistics services to the Department of Veterans Affairs Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy (CMOP). The maximum value of the award for the expected five year term, comprised of a base year and four one year options, is estimated at $133 million (unaudited). Performance commenced on November 1, 2013. As the successful bidder for all seven task orders within the procurement, DLH secured its contract base for the six incumbent regions it has supported through September 30, 2013, and added the seventh region to its contract base beginning in fiscal 2014. For year ended September 30, 2013, approximately 42% of the Company's revenues was derived from services provided to the six incumbent regions. These agreements are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations, and there can be no assurance as to the actual amount of services that the Company will ultimately provide under the agreement. The Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial condition would be materially adversely affected in the event that we are unable to continue our relationships with the DVA. Accounts receivable from agencies of the United States Government totaled $11.9 million and $13.0 million at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, including $9.3 million for each period associated with potential contractual billings adjustments that were unbilled as of September 30, 2013 and 2012. As discussed in Note 7, included in revenue derived from the Federal government in 2008 were retroactive adjustments that totaled $10.8 million. Such revenue is not expected to recur in future periods.
