NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data or where otherwise noted)

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

ARC Document Solutions, Inc. (“ARC Document Solutions,” “ARC” or the “Company”) is a leading document solutions provider to architectural, engineering, construction, and facilities management professionals, while also providing document solutions to businesses of all types. ARC offers a variety of services including: Construction Document Information Management ("CDIM"), Managed Print Services ("MPS"), and Archive and Information Management ("AIM"). In addition, ARC also sells Equipment and Supplies. The Company conducts its operations through its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, ARC Document Solutions, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and its affiliates.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conformity with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, the accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and relies on historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to determine such estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K.

Correction to 2016 Financial Statements

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements, management identified an immaterial error in the balance sheet presentation of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2016. In its 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company presented its deferred taxes on a gross basis; however, such deferred taxes should have been presented on a net basis by taxing jurisdiction in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes. As a result of the error, the Company has corrected the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities balances as of December 31, 2016 in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The correction resulted in a decrease to the Company's deferred tax liabilities balance of $30.3 million with a corresponding decrease of the same amount to the Company's deferred tax assets balance as of December 31, 2016. This correction had no impact to the Company's previously reported Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Consolidated Statements of Equity, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, or Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has concluded that the error correction was not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new guidance simplifies subsequent goodwill measurement by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Accordingly, the Company will be required to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment tests by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its respective carrying value, and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. In its most recent goodwill impairment analysis, the fair value of one of the Company's reporting units, which previously recorded a partial goodwill impairment in the second quarter of 2016, was less than its respective carrying amount; however, the implied fair value of such

goodwill exceeded the carrying amount of goodwill. As such, the total of $17.6 million of remaining goodwill attributable to this reporting unit, or a portion thereof, is at risk of impairment upon the adoption of ASU 2017-04.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The new guidance addresses diversity in practice for classification of certain transactions in the statement of cash flows including, but not limited to: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and distributions received from equity method investees. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new guidance requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded in the statement of operations when share-based awards vest or are settled. In addition, cash flows related to excess tax benefits will no longer be separately classified as a financing activity apart from other income tax cash flows. The standard also allows the Company to repurchase more of an employee’s shares for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting, clarifies that all cash payments made on an employee’s behalf for withheld shares should be presented as a financing activity on the Company's statement of cash flows, and provides an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, which resulted in a cumulative adjustment to equity of $0.2 million. In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Company elected to account for forfeitures of share-based awards when they occur.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 (“ASC 842”), Leases. The new guidance replaces the existing guidance in ASC 840, Leases. ASC 842 requires a dual approach for lessee accounting under which a lessee would account for leases as finance leases or operating leases. Both finance leases and operating leases will result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability. For finance leases the lessee would recognize interest expense and amortization of the ROU asset and for operating leases the lessee would recognize a straight-line total lease expense. ASC 842 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts that ASC 842 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company believes that the most significant impact relates to its accounting for facility leases related to its service centers and office space, which are currently classified as operating leases. The Company expects the accounting for capital leases related to its machinery and equipment will remain substantially unchanged under the new standard.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. The new guidance requires that inventory be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value and amends existing guidance which requires inventory be measured at the lower of cost or market. Replacing the concept of market with the single measurement of net realizable value is intended to create efficiencies for financial statement preparers. ASU 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the existing revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605).” The new guidance requires entities to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. While the Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts that ASU 2014-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company anticipates that the new guidance will primarily impact revenue recognized from its software service offerings, which account for less than 10% of the Company's consolidated total net sales. The Company will use the modified retrospective method to adopt the guidance in ASU 2014-09.

Segment Reporting

The provisions of ASC 280, Segment Reporting, require public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. The Company identifies operating segments based on the various business activities that earn revenue and incur expense and whose operating results are reviewed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's chief operating decision maker. Because its operating segments have similar products and services, classes of customers, production processes, distribution methods and economic characteristics, the Company operates as a single reportable segment.

Net sales of the Company’s principal services and products were as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Service Sales
CDIM	$	53,684	$	54,860	$	104,942	$	108,525
MPS	33,050		34,055		65,544		67,286
AIM	3,136		3,666		6,348		7,405
Total service sales	89,870		92,581		176,834		183,216
Equipment and supplies sales	12,410		11,189		24,177		24,104
Total net sales	$	102,280	$	103,770	$	201,011	$	207,320

Risk and Uncertainties

The Company generates the majority of its revenue from sales of services and products to customers in the architectural, engineering, construction and building owner/operator (AEC/O) industry. As a result, the Company’s operating results and financial condition can be significantly affected by economic factors that influence the AEC/O industry, such as non-residential construction spending, GDP growth, interest rates, unemployment rates, and office vacancy rates. Reduced activity (relative to historic levels) in the AEC/O industry would diminish demand for some of ARC’s services and products, and would therefore negatively affect revenues and have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition.

As part of the Company’s growth strategy, ARC intends to continue to offer and grow a variety of service offerings, some of which are relatively new to the Company. The success of the Company’s efforts will be affected by its ability to acquire new customers for the Company’s new service offerings, as well as to sell the new service offerings to existing customers. The Company’s inability to successfully market and execute these relatively new service offerings could significantly affect its business and reduce its long term revenue, resulting in an adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.

2. Earnings per Share

The Company accounts for earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ARC by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed similarly to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if common shares subject to outstanding options and acquisition rights had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, 3.4 million and 3.3 million common shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income attributable to ARC per common share, because they were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, stock options of 4.4 million common shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss attributable to ARC per common share, because they were anti-dilutive. The Company's common share equivalents consist of stock options issued under the Company's stock plan.

Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding were calculated as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:



	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017	2016	2017	2016
Weighted average common shares outstanding during the period—basic	45,792	45,955	45,716	46,285
Effect of dilutive stock options	466	—	613	—
Weighted average common shares outstanding during the period—diluted	46,258	45,955	46,329	46,285

Stock Repurchase Program

On February 8, 2016, the Company announced that the Company's Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to purchase up to $15.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock through December 31, 2017. Under the repurchase program, purchases of shares of common stock may be made from time to time in the open market, or in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the company to acquire any specific number of shares in any period, and may be expanded, extended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. See Part II, Item 2., “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” of this report for additional information on the stock repurchase program.

3. Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions

Goodwill

In connection with acquisitions, the Company applies the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The excess purchase price over the fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually as of September 30, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. During 2016, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2016 in addition to its annual goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2016.

Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the date the goodwill is initially recorded. Once goodwill has been assigned to reporting units, it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition, and all of the activities within a reporting unit, whether acquired or internally generated, are available to support the value of the goodwill.

Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process. Step one involves comparing the fair value of the reporting units to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than zero and its fair value is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.

The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using an income approach. Under the income approach, the Company determined fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of each reporting unit. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others.

At June 30, 2016, the Company determined that there were sufficient indicators to trigger an interim goodwill impairment analysis. The indicators included, among other factors: (1) the underperformance against plan of the Company's reporting units, (2) a revision of the Company's forecasted future earnings, and (3) a decline in the Company's market capitalization in 2016. The Company's interim goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2016 indicated that five of its eight reporting units, four in the United States and one in Canada, failed step one of the impairment analysis; however, step two of the analysis was subject to finalization of the implied fair value of goodwill. The preliminary results of step two of the goodwill impairment analysis indicated that the Company's goodwill was impaired by approximately $73.9 million. Accordingly, the Company recorded a pretax, non-cash charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill by $73.9 million. The Company completed step two of the analysis in the third quarter of 2016 with no change to the previous estimate.

At September 30, 2016, the Company performed its annual assessment and determined that goodwill was not impaired. The resulting analysis showed one reporting unit, which had previously recognized an impairment in the Company's interim goodwill impairment analysis, failing step one of the analysis, but no additional impairment of the related goodwill was required as of September 30, 2016. The Company's analysis of the same reporting unit as of June 30, 2017 indicated that no additional goodwill impairment was required.

Given the current economic environment, the changing document and printing needs of the Company’s customers, and the uncertainties regarding the effect on the Company’s business, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment tests in 2016 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Company’s assumptions, including forecasted EBITDA of certain reporting units, are not achieved, the Company may be required

to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with the Company’s next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2017, or on an interim basis, if any such change constitutes a triggering event (as defined under ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other ) outside of the quarter when the Company regularly performs its annual goodwill impairment test. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill from January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017 are summarized as follows:



	Gross Goodwill		Accumulated Impairment Loss		Net Carrying Amount

January 1, 2016	$	405,558	$	192,950	$	212,608
Additions	—		—		—
Goodwill impairment	—		73,920		(73,920		)
December 31, 2016	405,558		266,870		138,688
Additions	—		—		—
Goodwill impairment	—		—		—
June 30, 2017	$	405,558	$	266,870	$	138,688

See “Critical Accounting Policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further information regarding the process and assumptions used in the goodwill impairment analysis.

Long-lived Assets

The Company periodically assesses potential impairments of its long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. An impairment review is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company groups its assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of the other assets and liabilities. The Company has determined that the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available is the regional level, which is the operating segment level.

Factors considered by the Company include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends. When the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows and eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. An impairment loss is reflected as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, based on the fair value if available, or discounted cash flows, if fair value is not available. The Company had no long-lived asset impairments in 2017 or 2016.

Other intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their useful lives. Customer relationships are amortized using the accelerated method, based on customer attrition rates, over their estimated useful lives of 13 (weighted average) years.

The following table sets forth the Company’s other intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 which continue to be amortized:



	June 30, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount
Amortizable other intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	99,295	$	88,592	$	10,703	$	99,104	$	86,305	$	12,799
Trade names and trademarks	20,298		19,907		391		20,281		19,878		403
	$	119,593	$	108,499	$	11,094	$	119,385	$	106,183	$	13,202

Based on current information, estimated future amortization expense of other intangible assets for the remainder of the 2017 fiscal year, each of the subsequent four fiscal years and thereafter are as follows:



2017 (excluding the six months ended June 30, 2017)	$	2,101
2018	3,856
2019	3,135
2020	1,525
2021	170
Thereafter	307
	$	11,094

4. Income Taxes

On a quarterly basis, the Company estimates its effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and records a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated rate in conjunction with the recognition of any discrete items within the quarter.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $2.5 million and $3.7 million in relation to pretax income of $6.2 million and $9.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 40.4% and 40.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company recorded income tax benefits of $10.0 million and $8.0 million in relation to pretax losses of $65.8 million and $61.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 15.2% and 13.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The Company's low effective income tax rate was primarily due to the $41.4 million goodwill impairment related to historical stock acquisitions which cannot be deducted for income tax purposes until the related stock is disposed of.

In accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, the Company evaluates the need for deferred tax asset valuation allowances based on a more likely than not standard. The ability to realize deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction. The Company considers the following possible sources of taxable income when assessing the realization of deferred tax assets:


•	Future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences;


•	Future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards;


•	Taxable income in prior carryback years; and


•	Tax-planning strategies.

The assessment regarding whether a valuation allowance is required or should be adjusted also considers all available positive and negative evidence factors, including but not limited to:


•	Nature, frequency, and severity of recent losses;


•	Duration of statutory carryforward periods;


•	Historical experience with tax attributes expiring unused; and


•	Near- and medium-term financial outlook.

The Company utilizes a rolling three years of actual and current year anticipated results as the primary measure of cumulative income/losses in recent years, excluding permanent differences. The evaluation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns and

future profitability. The Company's accounting for deferred tax consequences represents its best estimate of those future events. Changes in the Company's current estimates, due to unanticipated events or otherwise, could have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. The Company continues to carry a $1.3 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2017.

Based on the Company’s current assessment, the remaining net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2017 are considered more likely than not to be realized. The valuation allowance of $1.3 million may be increased or reduced as conditions change or if the Company is unable to implement certain available tax planning strategies. The realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets ultimately depend on future taxable income, reversals of existing taxable temporary differences or through a loss carry back. The Company has income tax receivables of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2017 included in prepaid expenses in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet primarily related to income tax refunds for prior years.

Term A Loan Facility

On November 20, 2014 the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Term A Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto.

The Term A Credit Agreement provides for the extension of term loans (“Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $175.0 million, the entirety of which was disbursed on the Closing Date in order to pay outstanding obligations under the Company’s Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of December 20, 2013. The Credit Agreement also provides for the extension of revolving loans (“Revolving Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30.0 million. The Revolving Loan facility under the Term A Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s Credit Agreement dated as of January 27, 2012. The Company may request incremental commitments to the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and Revolving Loans available under the Term A Credit Agreement by an amount not to exceed $75.0 million in the aggregate. Unless an incremental commitment to increase the Term Loan or provide a new term loan matures at a later date, the obligations under the Term A Credit Agreement mature on November 20, 2019. As of June 30, 2017, the Company's borrowing availability under the Term A Credit Agreement was $24.9 million, which was the maximum borrowing limit of $30.0 million reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $1.9 million and revolver credit facility balance of $3.2 million.

Loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of LIBOR rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement). Loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement that are not LIBOR rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (B) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, per annum, and (C) the rate of interest announced, from time to time, by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as its “prime rate,” plus (ii) a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio.

The Company will pay certain recurring fees with respect to the credit facility, including administration fees to the administrative agent.

Subject to certain exceptions, including in certain circumstances, reinvestment rights, the loans extended under the Term A Credit Agreement are subject to customary mandatory prepayment provisions with respect to: the net proceeds from certain asset sales; the net proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of debt (other than debt permitted to be incurred under the terms of the Term A Credit Agreement); the net proceeds from certain issuances of equity securities; and net proceeds of certain insurance recoveries and condemnation events of the Company.

The Term A Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, subject to limitations and exceptions, and customary covenants restricting the ability (subject to various exceptions) of the Company and its subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness (including guarantee obligations); incur liens; sell certain property or assets; engage in mergers or other fundamental changes; consummate acquisitions; make investments; pay dividends, other distributions or repurchase equity interest of the Company or its subsidiaries; change the nature of their business; prepay or amend certain indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend their organizational documents; or enter into certain restrictive agreements. In addition, the Term A Credit Agreement contains financial covenants which requires the Company to maintain (i) at all times, a Total Leverage Ratio in an amount not to exceed 3.25 to 1.00 through the Company’s fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2016, and thereafter, in an amount not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00; and (ii) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement), as amended on June 24, 2016, the Company is required to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, an amount not less than 1.15 to 1.00. On February 5, 2016, the Term A Credit Agreement was amended to exclude up to $15.0 million of stock repurchases from the calculation of the Company's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, provided that those stock repurchases are consummated in accordance with the other terms and conditions of the agreement.

The Term A Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including with respect to: nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; failure to perform or observe covenants; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made; cross-default to other material indebtedness; bankruptcy, insolvency and dissolution events; inability to pay debts; monetary judgment defaults; actual or asserted invalidity or impairment of any definitive loan documentation, repudiation of guaranties or subordination terms; certain ERISA related events; or a change of control.

The obligations of the Company’s subsidiary that is the borrower under the Term A Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and each other United States domestic subsidiary of the Company. The Term A Credit Agreement and any interest rate protection and other hedging arrangements provided by any lender party to the Credit Facility or any affiliate of such a lender are secured on a first priority basis by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the borrower’s, the Company’s and each guarantor’s assets (subject to certain exceptions).

As of June 30, 2017, the Company has paid $68.2 million in aggregate principal on its $175.0 million Term Loan Credit Agreement. Principal payments on the Term Loan Credit Agreement of $14.2 million in 2017 resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $40 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

On July 14, 2017, the Company amended its Term A Credit Agreement. See Note 10, “Subsequent Events” for further information.

Other Notes Payable

Includes notes payable collateralized by equipment previously purchased.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases. The Company leases machinery, equipment, and office and operational facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements used in the ordinary course of business.

Legal Proceedings. We are involved in various legal proceedings and other legal matters from time to time in the normal course of business. We do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

7. Stock-Based Compensation

At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held on May 1, 2014, the Company's stockholders approved the Company's 2014 Stock Plan (the “2014 Stock Plan”) as adopted by the Company's board of directors. The 2014 Stock Plan replaces the American Reprographics Company 2005 Stock Plan (the "2005 Plan"). The 2014 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonuses and other forms of awards granted or denominated in the Company's common stock or units of the Company's common stock, as well as cash bonus awards to employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The 2014 Stock Plan authorizes the Company to issue up to 3.5 million shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2017, 0.7 million shares remain available for issuance under the Stock Plan.

Stock options granted under the 2014 Stock Plan generally expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Options generally vest and become fully exercisable over a period of three to four years from date of award, except that options granted to non-employee directors may vest over a shorter time period. The exercise price of options must be equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company allows for cashless exercises of vested outstanding options.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted options to acquire a total of 0.5 million shares of the Company's common stock to certain key employees with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted 0.4 million shares of restricted stock to certain key employees at a price per share equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date the restricted stock was granted. The granted stock options and restricted stock vest annually over a period of three to four years from the grant date.

The impact of stock-based compensation before income taxes on the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The impact of stock-based compensation before income taxes on the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was $1.6 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

As of June 30, 2017, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based payments totaled $4.4 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.1 years.

8. Derivatives and Hedging Transactions

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to interest rate volatility related to its Term A Loan Facility. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Such derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges and accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value of cash flow hedges that are designated as effective hedging instruments are deferred in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL"). Any ineffectiveness in such cash flow hedges is immediately recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of hedges that are not designated as effective hedging instruments are immediately recognized in earnings. Cash flows from the Company’s derivative instruments are classified in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in the same category as the items being hedged.

In January 2015, the Company entered into three one-year interest rate cap contracts to hedge against its exposure to interest rate volatility: (1) $80.0 million notional interest rate cap effective in 2015, (2) $65.0 million notional forward interest rate cap effective in 2016, and (3) $50.0 million notional forward interest rate cap effective in 2017. Over the next twelve months, the Company expects to reclassify $0.2 million from AOCL to interest expense.

The following table summarizes the fair value and classification on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Company's derivatives as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:



		Fair Value
	Balance Sheet Classification	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016

In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company has categorized its assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1-inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2-inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3-inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table summarizes the bases used to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:



	Significant Other Unobservable Inputs
	June 30, 2017				June 30, 2016
	Level 3		Total Losses		Level 3		Total Losses
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measure

Goodwill	$	138,688	$	—	$	138,688	$	73,920

In accordance with ASC 350, goodwill was written down to its implied fair value of $138.7 million as of June 30, 2016, resulting in an impairment charge of $73.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . See Note 3, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions” for further information regarding the process of determining the implied fair value of goodwill and change in goodwill.

The following table summarizes the bases used to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and as of and for the year ended December 31 2016:



		Significant Other Unobservable Inputs
		June 30, 2017						December 31, 2016
		Level 2		Level 3		Total Losses		Level 2		Level 3		Total Losses
Recurring Fair Value Measure
	Interest rate cap contracts	$	22	$	—	$	—	$	39	$	—	$	—
	Contingent purchase price consideration for acquired businesses	$	—	$	318	$	—	$	—	$	402	$	—

The Company determines the fair value of its interest rate cap contracts based on observable interest rate yield curves and represent the expected discounted cash flows underlying the financial instruments.

The Company recognizes liabilities for future earnout obligations on business acquisitions, or contingent purchase price consideration for acquired businesses, at their fair value based on discounted projected payments on such obligations. The inputs to the valuation, which are level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy, are projected sales to be provided by the acquired businesses based on historical sales trends for which earnout amounts are contractually based. Based on the Company's assessment as of June 30, 2017, the estimated contractually required earnout amounts would be achieved.

The following table presents the change in the Level 3 contingent purchase price consideration liability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:



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

Fair Values of Financial Instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments for disclosure purposes:

Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents are time deposits with maturity of three months or less when purchased, which are highly liquid and readily convertible to cash. Cash equivalents reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet were $5.3 million and $3.9 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and are carried at cost and approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of these instruments.

Short and long-term debt: The carrying amount of the Company’s capital leases reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2017 for borrowings under its Term Loan Credit Agreement is $106.9 million, excluding unamortized deferred financing fees. The Company has determined, utilizing observable market quotes, that the fair value of borrowings under its Term Loan Credit Agreement is $106.9 million as of June 30, 2017.

10. Subsequent Events

On July 14, 2017, the Company amended its Term A Credit Agreement. The amendment increases the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans under the agreement from $30 million to $80 million and resizes the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan under the agreement at $60 million. Upon the execution of the amendment to the Term A Credit Agreement, the principal amount outstanding under the agreement remained unchanged at $110.0 million. As amended, the principal of the resized Term Loan balance will amortize at an annual rate of 7.5% during the first and second years following the date of the amendment and at an annual rate of 10% during the third, fourth and fifth years following the date of the amendment, with any remaining balance payable upon the maturity date. The amendment also extended the maturity date for both the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans until July 14, 2022.

The amendment reduced the rate of interest payable on the loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement by 0.25%. Specifically, LIBOR loans borrowed under the agreement will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.25%, based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement). Loans borrowed under the agreement that are not LIBOR rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (B) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% per annum, and (C) the rate of interest announced, from time to time, by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as its “prime rate,” plus (ii) a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.25%, based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio.

The Amendment also modified the Total Leverage Ratio the Company is required to maintain under the Term A Credit Agreement by increasing it from 3.00 to 1.00 to 3.25 to 1.00.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2016 Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Business Summary

ARC Document Solutions, Inc. (“ARC Document Solutions,” “ARC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a leading document solutions provider to design, engineering, construction, and facilities management professionals, while also providing document solutions to businesses of all types.

Our customers need us to manage the scale, complexity and workflow of their documents. We help them reduce their costs and increase their efficiency by improving their access and control over documents, and we offer a wide variety of ways to access, distribute, collaborate on, and store documents.

Each of our service offerings is enabled through a suite of supporting proprietary technology and a wide variety of value-added services. We have categorized our service and product offerings to report distinct sales recognized from:

Construction Document and Information Management (CDIM), which consists of software services and professional services to manage and distribute documents and information primarily related to construction projects. CDIM sales include software services such as SKYSITE®, our cloud-based project communication application, as well as providing document and information management services that are often technology-enabled. The bulk of our current revenue from CDIM comes from large-format and small-format printing services we provide in both black and white and in color. Sales from traditional printing have been in steady decline since the last recession due in large measure to the adoption of technology, but we believe there is market share still to be captured.

Software services are a smaller part of overall CDIM sales which we anticipate to continue to grow with the adoption of technology. The sale of services addresses a variety of customer needs including the provision of project communication tools, project information management, building information modeling, digital document distribution services, printing services, and others.

Managed Print Services (MPS), consists of placement, management, and optimization of print and imaging equipment in our customers' offices, job sites, and other facilities. MPS relieves our customers of the burden of owning and managing print devices and print networks, and shifts their costs to a “per-use” basis. MPS is supported by our proprietary technology, Abacus™, which allows our customers to capture, control, manage, print, and account for their documents. MPS Services revenue is derived from two sources: 1) an engagement with the customer to place primarily large-format equipment, that we own or lease, at a construction site or in our customers’ offices, and 2) an arrangement by which our customers outsource their printing function to us, including all office printing, copying, and reprographics printing. In both cases this is recurring, contracted revenue with most contracts ranging from 3 to 5 years and we are paid a single cost per unit of material used, often referred to as a “click charge.” MPS sales are driven by the ongoing print needs of our customers at their facilities.

Archiving and Information Management (AIM), combines software and professional services to facilitate the capture, management, access and retrieval of documents and information that have been produced in the past. AIM includes our SKYSITE software to organize, search and retrieve documents, as well as the provision of services that include the capture and conversion of hardcopy and electronic documents, and their cloud-based storage and maintenance. AIM sales are driven by the need to leverage past intellectual property for present or future use, facilitate cost savings and efficiency improvements over current hardcopy and digital storage methods, as well as comply with regulatory and records retention requirements.

Equipment and Supplies, which consists of reselling printing, imaging, and related equipment to customers primarily to architectural, engineering and construction firms.

We focus on growing MPS, AIM and CDIM, as we believe the mix of services demanded by the architectural, engineering, construction, and building owner/operator (AEC/O) industry continues to shift toward document management at customer locations and in the cloud, and away from its historical emphasis on large-format construction drawings produced “offsite” in our service centers.

We deliver our services via the cloud, through a nationwide network of service centers, regionally-based technical specialists, locally-based sales executives, and a national/regional sales force known as Global Solutions.

Acquisition activity during the last three years has been minimal and did not materially affect our overall business.

We believe we offer a distinct portfolio of services within the AEC/O industry, though clients outside of our core market continue to show significant interest in our offerings. Based on our analysis of our operating results, we estimate that sales to the AEC/O industry accounted for approximately 77% of our net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, with the remaining 23% consisting of sales to businesses outside of construction.

We identify operating segments based on the various business activities that earn revenue and incur expense. Our operating results are reviewed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is our Company's chief operating decision maker. Since our operating segments have similar products and services, classes of customers, production processes, distribution methods and economic characteristics, we have a single reportable segment. See Note 1 “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation” for further information.

Costs and Expenses

Our cost of sales consists primarily of materials (paper, toner and other consumables), labor, and “indirect costs” which consist primarily of equipment expenses related to our MPS contracts and our service center facilities. Facilities and equipment expenses include maintenance, repairs, rents, insurance, and depreciation. Paper is the largest component of our material cost; however, paper pricing typically does not significantly affect our operating margins due, in part, to our efforts to pass increased costs on to our customers. We closely monitor material cost as a percentage of net sales to measure volume and waste. We also track labor utilization, or net sales per employee, to measure productivity and determine staffing levels.

We maintain low levels of inventory. Historically, our capital expenditure requirements have varied due to the cost and availability of capital lease lines of credit. Our relationships with credit providers has provided attractive lease rates over the past two years, and as a result, we chose to lease rather than purchase equipment in a significant portion of our engagements.

Research and development costs consist mainly of the salaries, leased building space, and computer equipment that comprises our data storage and development centers in Fremont, California and Kolkata, India. Such costs are primarily recorded to cost of sales.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and related ratios presented in this report are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.

EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP measure calculated by dividing EBITDA by net sales.

We have presented EBITDA and related ratios because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity. We believe investors may also find these measures meaningful, given how our management makes use of them. The following is a discussion of our use of these measures.

We use EBITDA to measure and compare the performance of our operating segments. Our operating segments’ financial performance includes all of the operating activities except debt and taxation which are managed at the corporate level for U.S. operating segments. We use EBITDA to compare the performance of our operating segments and to measure performance for determining consolidated-level compensation. In addition, we use EBITDA to evaluate potential acquisitions and potential capital expenditures.

EBITDA and related ratios have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:


•	They do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures and contractual commitments;


•	They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;


•	They do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest or principal payments on our debt;


•	Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and


•	Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and related ratios should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in business growth or to reduce our indebtedness. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and related ratios only as supplements.

Our presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA over certain periods is an attempt to provide meaningful comparisons to our historical performance for our existing and future investors. The unprecedented changes in our end markets over the past several years have required us to take measures that are unique in our history and specific to individual circumstances. Comparisons inclusive of these actions make normal financial and other performance patterns difficult to discern under a strict GAAP presentation. Each non-GAAP presentation, however, is explained in detail in the reconciliation tables below.

Specifically, we have presented adjusted net income attributable to ARC and adjusted earnings per share attributable to ARC shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 to reflect the exclusion of loss on extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment, restructuring expense, and changes in the valuation allowances related to certain deferred tax assets and other discrete tax items. This presentation facilitates a meaningful comparison of our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. We believe these charges were the result of the then current macroeconomic environment, our capital restructuring, or other items which are not indicative of our actual operating performance.

We have presented adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 to exclude loss on extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment, restructuring expense and stock-based compensation expense. The adjustment of EBITDA for these items is consistent with the definition of adjusted EBITDA in our credit agreement; therefore, we believe this information is useful to investors in assessing our financial performance.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net Sales

Net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by 1.4%, and 3.0% compared to the same periods in 2016 due primarily to declines in our print-based service offerings.

CDIM. Year-over-year sales of CDIM services decreased $1.2 million, or 2.1%, and $3.6 million, or 3.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The decrease in sales of CDIM services was primarily due to the continued reduction in demand for printed construction drawings and related services driven by the ongoing adoption of technology replacing traditional print-based service offerings. CDIM services represented 53% and 52% of total net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 53% and 52% during the same periods in 2016, respectively.

MPS. Year-over-year sales of MPS services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $1.0 million, or 3.0%, and $1.7 million, or 2.6%, respectively, due to the decline in print volumes from existing customers. The decline in print volumes was driven in part by the continued optimization of our customers' in-house print environment partially offset by new customer acquisitions. Our MPS offering delivers value to its customers by optimizing their print infrastructure, which in turn, will lower their print volume over time. Sales reductions associated with a decline in print volume are typically offset by new customer acquisitions and expansion of MPS services within existing customers. Revenues from MPS Services sales represented approximately 32% and 33% of total net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 33% during the same both periods in 2016.

The number of MPS locations has grown to approximately 9,830 as of June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately 590 locations compared to June 30, 2016. While MPS is subject to temporary performance fluctuations based on the loss or acquisition of large clients, we believe there is an opportunity for MPS sales growth in the future due to the value that we bring to our customers and the desire to reduce costs in the AEC/O industry.

We intend to continue the expansion of our MPS offering through our regional sales force and through our national accounts group "Global Solutions." Our Global Solutions sales force has established long-term contract relationships with 25 of the largest 100

AEC/O firms. MPS services are driven in large part by the number of customer employees at an office as that drives office printing and copying.

AIM. Year-over-year sales of AIM Services declined $0.5 million, or 14.5%, and $1.1 million, or 14.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The decline was primarily driven by a reorganization in our sales staff which we believe will cause a temporary decline in AIM sales. We are driving an expansion of our addressable market for AIM by targeting building owners and facilities managers that require on-demand legacy documents to operate their assets efficiently. We believe we have developed a valuable solution that will drive growth in the future, but required a reorganization of the sales force that is temporarily disrupting sales.

Equipment and Supplies Sales. Year-over-year sales of Equipment and Supplies increased $1.2 million, or 10.9%, and $0.1 million, or 0.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Quarterly changes in Equipment and Supplies Sales are largely driven by the timing of replacements of aging equipment fleets for customers who prefer to own their equipment. Equipment and Supplies Sales that drove our growth were derived from UNIS Document Solutions Co. Ltd (“UDS”), our Chinese business venture, were $6.3 million and $11.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $3.9 million and $9.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. We do not anticipate sustained growth in Equipment and Supplies Sales as we are placing more focus on growing MPS sales and converting sales contracts to MPS agreements; however, we intend to be opportunistic about sales opportunities as they arise in North America and abroad.

Gross Profit

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, gross profit and gross margin decreased to $34.5 million, and 33.7% compared to $36.4 million and 35.1%, during the same period in 2016, on a sales decline of $1.5 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, gross profit and gross margin decreased to $65.3 million, and 32.5% compared to $70.1 million and 33.8%, during the same period in 2016, on a sales decline of $6.3 million.

The decline in our gross margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily driven by 1) the impact of lower revenue for the period reducing our ability to leverage the fixed portion of our overhead and labor costs and 2) the increase in low-margin equipment sales in China.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses were flat and decreased $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016.

General and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million or 4.3%, and $1.3 million or 4.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016. The reduction in expenses was primarily due to cost reduction initiatives undertaken in response to the drop in revenue.

Year-over-year sales and marketing expenses increased $0.7 million and $0.1 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily due to investments in sales staff to support our new technology-enabled offerings.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles of $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, decreased slightly compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to the completed amortization of certain customer relationship intangibles related to historical acquisitions.

Restructuring Expense

Restructuring expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, consisted of revised estimated lease termination and obligation costs resulting from facilities closed in 2013. We incurred no additional restructuring expenses in 2017.

Goodwill Impairment

At June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a pretax, non-cash charge in 2016 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill by $73.9 million. See Note 3, “Goodwill and other Intangibles Resulting From Business Acquisitions” for further information regarding the process of assessing goodwill impairment.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

As of June 30, 2017, we have paid $68.2 million in aggregate principal of our $175.0 million Term Loan Credit Agreement, which was $24.4 million above our required principal payments since the inception of the credit agreement. Principal payments of $14.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017, resulted in a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $40.0 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense totaled $1.6 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $1.5 million and $3.0 million for the same periods in 2016. The slight increase was primarily as a result of the year-over-year Term A facility interest rate increase of 61 basis points driven by the increase in LIBOR partially offset by the early extinguishment of our long-term debt as described above.

Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax provision of $2.5 million and $3.7 million in relation to pretax income of $6.2 million and $9.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 40.4% and 40.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, our effective income tax rate would have been 39.7%, excluding the impact of a change in valuation allowance, certain stock-based compensation not deductible for income tax purposes and other discrete items. We continue to carry a $1.3 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2017.

Our gross deferred tax assets remain available to us for use in future years until they fully expire, which based on forecasted continuing profitability, we estimate that it is more likely than not that future earnings will be sufficient to realize certain of our deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2016, we had approximately $79.9 million of consolidated federal, $96.6 million of state and $2.6 million of foreign net operating loss and charitable contribution carryforwards available to offset future taxable income, respectively, available for use in 2017 and future years. The federal net operating loss carryforward began in 2011 and will begin to expire in varying amounts between 2031 and 2034. The charitable contribution carryforward began in 2009 and will begin to expire in varying amounts between 2017 and 2021. The state net operating loss carryforwards expire in varying amounts between 2017 and 2034. The foreign net operating loss carryforwards begun to expire in varying amounts beginning in 2017.

Noncontrolling Interest

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents 35% of the income of UDS and its subsidiaries, which together comprise our Chinese joint-venture operations.

Net Income (loss) Attributable to ARC

Net income (loss) attributable to ARC was $3.6 million and $5.4 million, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to net loss attributable to ARC of $55.9 million and $53.3 million in the same periods in 2016. The increase in net income attributable to ARC for three and six months ended June 30, 2017 versus the prior year periods is primarily due to the goodwill impairment charge taken in the second quarter of 2016, as noted above.

EBITDA

EBITDA margin increased to 15.7% and 14.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, from (54.5)% and (20.5)% for the same periods in 2016, respectively. Excluding the effect of the loss on extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment, restructuring expense and stock-based compensation, adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 16.6% and 15.2% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to 17.5% and 15.9% for the same periods in 2016. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA margin was due to the declines in revenue and gross margins described above.

Impact of Inflation

We do not believe inflation has had a significant effect on our operations. Price increases for raw materials, such as paper and fuel charges, typically have been, and we expect will continue to be, passed on to customers in the ordinary course of business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of cash have been operations and borrowings under our debt and lease agreements. Our recent historical uses of cash have been for ongoing operations, payment of principal and interest on outstanding debt obligations, capital expenditures and stock repurchases.

Total cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017, was $26.6 million. Of this amount, $13.5 million was held in foreign countries, with $10.7 million held in China. Repatriation of some of our cash and cash equivalents in foreign countries could be subject to delay for local country approvals and could have potential adverse tax consequences. As a result of holding cash and cash equivalents outside of the U.S., our financial flexibility may be reduced.

Supplemental information pertaining to our historical sources and uses of cash is presented as follows and should be read in conjunction with our interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands)	2017			2016			2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	18,488		$	16,580		$	25,430		$	21,883
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(2,637	)	$	(2,164	)	$	(4,517	)	$	(4,443	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(8,979	)	$	(10,436	)	$	(19,878	)	$	(20,735	)

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operations are primarily driven by sales and net profit generated from these sales, excluding non-cash charges.

The increase in cash flows from operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 was primarily due to changes in inventory and the timing of payables offset, in part, by the decline in profitability. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”) slightly decreased to 52 days as of June 30, 2017 compared to 53 as of June 30, 2016 due to the timing of sales and cash collections. We continue our focus on the timely collection of our accounts receivable.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was primarily related to capital expenditures. We incurred capital expenditures totaling $4.9 million and $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The change in capital expenditures is driven by the timing of equipment purchases, and whether such equipment is leased or purchased with available cash. As we continue to foster our relationships with credit providers and obtain attractive lease rates, we have increasingly chosen to lease rather than purchase equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash of $19.9 million used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily relates to payments on our debt agreements and capital leases. As of June 30, 2017, we have paid $68.2 million in aggregate principal of our $175.0 million Term Loan Credit Agreement. Principal payments made were $24.4 million greater than the required principal payments since the inception of the agreement, of which $14.2 million in payments were made in 2017.

Our cash position, working capital, and debt obligations as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are shown below and should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report.



(In thousands)	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Cash and cash equivalents	$	26,604	$	25,239
Working capital	$	48,889	$	44,892

Borrowings from term loan facility ^{(1) (2)}	$	109,244	$	120,911
Other debt obligations	42,723		36,262
Total debt obligations	$	151,967	$	157,173

(1) Net of deferred financing fees of $756 and $1,039 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

(2) Includes $3.2 million and $1.0 million of revolving loans outstanding under Term A Loan Facility at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The increase of $4.0 million in working capital in 2017 was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents, an increase in prepaid expenses and timing of payables offset, in part by an increase in capital lease obligations. To manage our working capital, we chiefly focus on our DSO and monitor the aging of our accounts receivable, as receivables are the most significant element of our working capital.

We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents balance of $26.6 million, availability under our revolving credit facility, availability under our equipment lease lines, and cash flows provided by operations should be adequate to cover the next twelve months of working capital needs, debt service requirements consisting of scheduled principal and interest payments, and planned capital expenditures, to the extent such items are known or are reasonably determinable based on current business and market conditions. See “Debt Obligations” section for further information related to our revolving credit facility.

We generate the majority of our revenue from sales of services and products to the AEC/O industry. As a result, our operating results and financial condition can be significantly affected by economic factors that influence the AEC/O industry, such as non-residential and residential construction spending. Additionally, a general economic downturn may adversely affect the ability of our customers and suppliers to obtain financing for significant operations and purchases, and to perform their obligations under their agreements with us. We believe that credit constraints in the financial markets could result in a decrease in, or cancellation of, existing business, could limit new business, and could negatively affect our ability to collect our accounts receivable on a timely basis.

While we have not been actively seeking growth through acquisition , the executive team continues to selectively evaluate potential acquisitions.

Debt Obligations

Term A Loan Facility

On November 20, 2014 we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Term A Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto.

The Term A Credit Agreement provides for the extension of term loans (“Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $175.0 million, the entirety of which was disbursed on the Closing Date in order to pay outstanding obligations under our Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of December 20, 2013. The Credit Agreement also provides for the extension of revolving loans ("Revolving Loans") in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30.0 million. The Revolving Loan facility under the Term A Credit Agreement replaces our Credit Agreement dated as of January 27, 2012. We may request incremental commitments to the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and Revolving Loans available under the Credit Agreement by an amount not to exceed $75.0 million in the aggregate. Unless an incremental commitment to increase the Term Loan or provide a new term loan matures at a later date, the obligations under the Credit Agreement mature on November 20, 2019.

Loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of LIBOR rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement). Loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement that are not LIBOR rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (B) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% per annum, and (C) the rate of interest announced, from time to time, by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as its “prime rate,” plus (ii) a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on our Company’s Total Leverage Ratio.

We will pay certain recurring fees with respect to the credit facility, including administration fees to the administrative agent.

Company or its subsidiaries; change the nature of their business; prepay or amend certain indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend their organizational documents; or enter into certain restrictive agreements. In addition, the Term A Credit Agreement contains financial covenants which requires us to maintain (i) at all times, a Total Leverage Ratio in an amount not to exceed 3.25 to 1.00 through our fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2016, and thereafter, in an amount not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00; and (ii) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement), as amended on June 24, 2016, we are required to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, an amount not less than 1.15 to 1.00. We were in compliance with our covenants as of June 30, 2017 and forecasted to remain in compliance with our covenants for the remainder of the term of the agreement.

On February 5, 2016, the Term A Credit Agreement was amended to exclude up to $15.0 million of stock repurchases from the calculation of the our Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, provided that those stock repurchases are consummated in accordance with the other terms and conditions of the agreement.

The obligations of our subsidiary that is the borrower under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by us and each other United States domestic subsidiary of our Company. The Credit Agreement and any interest rate protection and other hedging arrangements provided by any lender party to the Credit Facility or any affiliate of such a lender are secured on a first priority basis by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the borrower’s, our Company’s and each guarantor’s assets (subject to certain exceptions).

On July 14, 2017, we amended the Term A Credit Agreement. The amendment increases the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans under the agreement from $30 million to $80 million and resizes the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan under the agreement at $60 million. Upon the execution of the amendment to the Term A Credit Agreement, the principal amount outstanding under the agreement remained unchanged at $110.0 million. As amended, the principal of the resized Term Loan balance will amortize at an annual rate of 7.5% during the first and second years following the date of the amendment and at an annual rate of 10% during the third, fourth and fifth years following the date of the amendment, with any remaining balance payable upon the maturity date. The amendment also extended the maturity date for both the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans until July 14, 2022.

The amendment reduced the rate of interest payable on the loans borrowed under the Term A Credit Agreement by 0.25%. Specifically, LIBOR loans borrowed under the agreement will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.25%, based on our Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term A Credit Agreement). Loans borrowed under the agreement that are not LIBOR rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (B) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% per annum, and (C) the rate of interest announced, from time to time, by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as its “prime rate,” plus (ii) a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.25%, based on the our Total Leverage Ratio.

The Amendment also modified our Total Leverage Ratio that we are required to maintain under the Term A Credit Agreement by increasing it from 3.00 to 1.00 to 3.25 to 1.00.

Capital Leases

As of June 30, 2017, we had $42.7 million of capital lease obligations outstanding, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.2% and maturities between 2017 and 2022.

Other Notes Payable

As of June 30, 2017, we had $23.0 thousand of notes payable outstanding, with an interest rate of 10.8% and maturities through 2019. These notes are collateralized by equipment previously purchased.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017, we did not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

Operating Leases. We have entered into various non-cancelable operating leases primarily related to facilities, equipment and vehicles used in the ordinary course of business.

Contingent Transaction Consideration. We have entered into earnout obligations in connection with business acquisitions. If the acquired businesses generate sales and/or operating profits in excess of predetermined targets, we are obligated to make additional cash payments in accordance with the terms of such earnout obligations. As of June 30, 2017, we recorded liabilities related to future earnout payments consummated subsequent to the adoption of ASC 805, Business Combinations, of $0.3 million. Liabilities related to future earnout payments are carried at fair value, and any changes in fair value at each reporting period, are recognized in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that we believe are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require our 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. Our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K includes a description of certain critical accounting policies, including those with respect to goodwill, revenue recognition, and income taxes. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Goodwill Impairment

In connection with acquisitions, we apply the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The excess purchase price over the fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, we assess goodwill for impairment annually as of September 30, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. During 2016, we performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2016 in addition to its annual goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2016.

At June 30, 2016, we determined that there were sufficient indicators to trigger an interim goodwill impairment analysis. The indicators included, among other factors: (1) the underperformance against plan of our reporting units, (2) a revision of our forecasted future earnings, and (3) a decline in the Company's market capitalization in 2016. The underperformance against plan of our reporting units and the resulting revision of our forecasted future earnings was driven by: (a) a larger than expected decline in our print-related sales which began during the second quarter of 2016 due to an acceleration in the adoption of new technology replacing printed documents in our industry, (b) the lack of new national customer acquisitions, which had been expected based on historical customer acquisition rates, and (c) lower than expected growth derived from our cloud-based digital document management solutions. Based on currently available information, we do not believe that the trend we have identified to replace traditional print-based document reproduction and management with digital document solutions is temporary, and we anticipate that such declines will continue to impact the Company’s net sales in the foreseeable future.

Our interim goodwill impairment analysis indicated that five of our eight reporting units, four in the United States and one in Canada, failed step one of the impairment analysis; however, step two of the analysis was subject to finalization of the implied fair value of goodwill. The preliminary results of step two of the goodwill impairment analysis indicated that our goodwill was impaired by approximately $73.9 million. Accordingly, we recorded a pretax, non-cash charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill by $73.9 million. We completed step two of the analysis in the third quarter of 2016 with no change to the previous estimate.

At September 30, 2016, we performed our annual assessment and determined that goodwill was not impaired. The resulting analysis showed one reporting unit, which had previously recognized an impairment in our interim goodwill impairment analysis, failing step one of the analysis, but no additional impairment of the related goodwill was required as of September 30, 2016. Our analysis of the same reporting unit as of June 30, 2017 indicated that no additional goodwill impairment was required.

value of the goodwill. During the second quarter of 2016, in connection with an operationally focused reorganization of certain of our reporting units, one additional reporting unit was added. As such, the goodwill of the former reporting units affected was reassigned to the new reporting unit based on their relative fair values and represented less than one percent of the Company's goodwill balance at the time.

Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process. Step one involves comparing the fair value of our reporting units to their carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than zero and its fair value is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount is greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.

We determine the fair value of our reporting units using an income approach. Under the income approach, we determined fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of each reporting unit. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others.

Our projections are driven, in part, by industry data gathered from third parties, including projected growth rates of the AEC/O industry by segment (i.e. residential and non-residential) and anticipated GDP growth rates, as well as company-specific data such as estimated composition of our customer base (i.e. non-AEC/O vs. AEC/O, residential vs. non- residential), historical revenue trends, and EBITDA margin performance of our reporting units. Our revenue projections for each of ARC’s reporting units include the estimated respective customer composition for each reporting unit, year-to-date revenue at the time of the goodwill impairment analysis, and projected growth rates for the related customer types. Although we rely on a variety of internal and external sources in projecting revenue, our relative reliance on each source or trend changes from year to year. In 2012 and into 2013, we noted a continued divergence between our historic revenue growth rates and AEC/O non-residential construction growth rates, as well as the “dilution” of traditional reprographics as the Company’s dominant business line. Therefore, we increased our reliance upon internal sources for our short-term and long-term revenue forecasts. Once the forecasted revenue was established for each of the reporting units based on the process noted above, using the current year EBITDA margin as a base line, we forecasted future EBITDA margins. In general, our EBITDA margins are significantly affected by (1) revenue trends and (2) cost management initiatives. Revenue trends impact our EBITDA margins because a significant portion of our cost of sales are considered relatively fixed therefore an increase in forecasted revenue (particularly when combined with any cost management or productivity enhancement initiatives) would result in meaningful gross margin expansion. Similarly, a significant portion of our selling, general, and administrative expenses are considered fixed. Hence, in forecasting EBITDA margins, significant reliance was placed on the historical impact of revenue trends on EBITDA margin.

As of September 30, 2016, the estimated fair values of our reporting units were based upon their respective projected EBITDA margins, which were anticipated to vary from annual declines to increases up to 100 basis points for the periods analyzed. These cash flows were discounted using a weighted average cost of capital ranging from 10% to 12%, depending upon the size and risk profile of the reporting unit. We considered market information in assessing the reasonableness of the fair value under the income approach described above.

The results of step one of the goodwill impairment test, as of September 30, 2016, were as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	Number of Reporting Units	Representing Goodwill of
No goodwill balance	5	$	—
Reporting unit failing step one that continues to carry a goodwill balance	1	17,637
Fair value of reporting units exceeds their carrying values by more than 100%	2	121,051
	8	$	138,688

The goodwill balances reflected above are net of the $73.9 million goodwill impairment recognized in the second quarter of 2016.

Based upon a sensitivity analysis, a reduction of approximately 50 basis points of projected EBITDA in 2017 and beyond, assuming all other assumptions remain constant, no additional reporting units would proceed to step two of the analysis, although the change would result in an additional impairment charge of approximately $1.1 million.

Based upon a separate sensitivity analysis, a 50 basis point increase to the weighted average cost of capital would result in no additional reporting units proceeding to step two of the analysis, although the change would result in a further impairment of approximately $2.4 million.

Given the current economic environment, the changing document and printing needs of our customers and the uncertainties regarding the effect on our business, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing in 2016 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions, including forecasted EBITDA of certain reporting units, are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2017, or on an interim basis, if any such change constitutes a triggering event (as defined under ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other) outside of the quarter when we regularly perform our annual goodwill impairment test. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. Such amounts are adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Changes in tax laws or accounting standards and methods may affect recorded deferred taxes in future periods.

In accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, we evaluate the need for deferred tax asset valuation allowances based on a more likely than not standard. The ability to realize deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction. We consider the following possible sources of taxable income when assessing the realization of deferred tax assets:


•	Future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences;


•	Future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards;


•	Taxable income in prior carryback years; and


•	Tax-planning strategies.

The assessment regarding whether a valuation allowance is required or should be adjusted also considers all available positive and negative evidence factors, including but not limited to:


•	Nature, frequency, and severity of recent losses;


•	Duration of statutory carryforward periods;


•	Historical experience with tax attributes expiring unused; and


•	Near- and medium-term financial outlook.

It is difficult to conclude a valuation allowance is not required when there is significant objective and verifiable negative evidence, such as cumulative losses in recent years. We utilize a rolling three years of actual and current year anticipated results as the primary measure of cumulative losses in recent years. The evaluation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns and future profitability.

Our accounting for deferred tax consequences represents our best estimate of those future events. Changes in our current estimates, due to unanticipated events or otherwise, could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. At September 30, 2015 as a result of sustained profitability in the U.S. evidenced by three years of earnings and forecasted continuing profitability, we determined it was more likely than not future earnings will be sufficient to realize deferred tax assets in the U.S. We continue to carry a $1.3 million valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2017.

We calculate our current and deferred tax provision based on estimates and assumptions that could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed in subsequent years. Adjustments based on filed returns are recorded when identified.

Income taxes have not been provided on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because such earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested.

The amount of taxable income or loss we report to the various tax jurisdictions is subject to ongoing audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to management’s assessment of relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at that time. We use a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. We record a liability for the difference between the benefit recognized and measured and tax position taken or expected to be taken on our tax return. To the extent that our assessment of such tax positions changes, the change in estimate is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2017. We report tax-related interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.

For further information regarding the accounting policies that we believe to be critical accounting policies and that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparing our interim condensed consolidated financial statements see our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt instruments. We use both fixed and variable rate debt as sources of financing. In 2014, we entered into a $175.0 million Term A Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Term A Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus a variable rate. As such, our Term A Credit Agreement exposes us to market risk for changes in interest rates. To manage our exposure to interest rate volatility associated with borrowings under our Term A Credit Agreement, we entered into interest rate cap agreements in the first quarter of 2015. We have not, and do not plan to, enter into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

As of June 30, 2017, we had $152.7 million of total debt and capital lease obligations, of which approximately 28% was at a fixed rate, with the remainder at variable rates. Given our outstanding indebtedness at June 30, 2017, the effect of a 100 basis point increase in LIBOR on our interest expense would be approximately $0.8 million annually.

Although we have international operating entities, our exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations is not significant to our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2017. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
