L-1 IDENTITY SOLUTIONS, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Operations
L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries (L-1 or the Company) provide solutions
and services that protect and secure personal identities and assets and allow international
governments, federal and state agencies, law enforcement and commercial businesses to guard the
public against terrorism, crime and identity theft.
In January 2010, L-1 announced that one of its strategic goals and objectives for 2010 was to
explore strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder value. At this time, there can be no
assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any sale transaction,
moreover, both the timing of such a sale transaction and whether a significant premium to current
market trading prices for L-1s common stock can be obtained as part of any such transaction are
uncertain. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect the impact of any possible
transaction, except for approximately $1.7 million reflected in the second quarter of 2010 for
costs incurred related to exploration of strategic alternatives.
The Company operates in two reportable segments: Solutions and Services.
The Solutions segment includes Secure Credentialing and Biometrics/Enterprise Access. Secure
Credentialing solutions span the entire secure credentialing lifecycle, from testing through
issuance and inspection. This includes drivers licenses, national IDs, ePassports and other forms
of government-issued proof of identity credentials. Biometric solutions capture, manage and move
biometric data for positive, rapid ID and tracking of persons of interest. Biometric solutions
also encompass access control readers that enable businesses and governments to secure facilities
and restricted areas by preventing unauthorized entry.
The Services segment includes Enrollment Services, SpecTal/McClendon and Advanced Concepts.
Enrollment Services performs fingerprint-based background checks necessary for federal and state
licensed employment in the banking, finance, insurance, healthcare, legal, real estate, education
and other industries. SpecTal/McClendon and Advanced Concepts provide services to the most
important areas of national security and intelligence in the U.S. today, including information
technology, engineering and analytics, and intelligence.
Customers, depending on their needs, may order solutions that include hardware, equipment,
consumables, software products or services or combine hardware products, consumables, equipment,
software products and services to create multiple element arrangements.
Reorganization
On May 16, 2007, the Company adopted a new holding company organizational structure to
facilitate the issuance of its convertible senior notes (the Convertible Notes or Notes) and
the structuring of acquisitions. Pursuant to the reorganization, L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc.
became the sole shareholder of its predecessor, L-1 Identity Solutions Operating Company (L-1
Operating, previously also known as L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc.).
The Company has no operations other than those carried through its investment in L-1 Operating
and the financing operations related to the issuance of the Convertible Notes. A summary balance
sheet of the Company (Parent Company only) is set forth below (in thousands):

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that in the opinion of management are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods. The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial statements, and
in accordance with SEC rules, omit or condense certain information and footnote disclosures.
Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any
other interim period or for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Companys Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2010. The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of L-1 and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of material inter-company
transactions and balances.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the
allocation of the purchase price of the acquired businesses, assessing the impairment of goodwill,
other intangible assets and property and equipment, revenue recognition, estimating the useful life
of long-lived assets, inventory valuation allowance, provision for bad debts, income taxes,
litigation and valuation of and accounting for financial instruments, including convertible notes,
interest rate protection agreements, foreign currency contracts, warrants and stock options. Actual
results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenue from sales of solutions that include hardware components,
consumables and software components and related maintenance, technical support, training and
installation services integral to sales of hardware and software. The Company also derives revenues
from sales of finger-print based background check enrollment services and government security and
information technologies services. A customer, depending on its needs, may order solutions that
include hardware, equipment, consumables, software products or services or combine these products
and services to create a multiple element arrangement. The Companys revenue recognition policies
are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2010. There have been no material changes to such
policies.
Stock-Based Compensation
L-1 uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of option awards. The
following weighted average assumptions were utilized in the valuation of stock options in 2010 and
2009:

The expected volatility rate is based on the historical volatility of the Companys
common stock. The expected life of options are calculated pursuant to the relevant guidance from
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The Company estimates forfeitures based on historical rates. The
risk free interest rate is based on the applicable treasury security whose term approximates the
expected life of the options. The Company updates these assumptions on at least an annual basis and
on an interim basis if significant changes to the assumptions are determined to be necessary.
Computation of Net Loss per Share
Basic loss attributable to L-1s shareholders per share is calculated by dividing net loss
attributable to L-1s shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted net loss attributable to L-1s shareholders per share is based upon the
weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period.
The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during 2009, includes 1.1
million shares issuable pursuant to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock before their
conversion into common stock. Restricted share awards are included in the calculation of basic
shares outstanding beginning on the date of vesting. The impact of approximately 0.2 million of
common equivalent shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and the impact of
0.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2009, were not reflected in the net loss
attributable to L-1s shareholders per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. There was no
impact for the three month period ending June 30, 2009.
The Company calculates the effect of the Convertible Notes on diluted net loss attributable to
L-1s shareholders per share utilizing the as if converted method since the Company has the right
to issue shares of common stock to settle the entire obligation upon conversion. For the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the effect was anti-dilutive. Accordingly,
approximately 5.5 million shares of weighted average common stock issuable at conversion have been
excluded from the determination of weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into a pre-paid
forward contract with Bear Stearns (now JP Morgan Chase) for a payment of $69.8 million to purchase
3.5 million shares of the Companys common stock at a price of $20.00 per share for delivery in
2012. The number of shares to be delivered under the contract is used to reduce weighted average
basic and diluted shares outstanding for loss attributable to L-1s shareholders per share
purposes.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted the following accounting standards:
In June 2009, the FASB issued the standard, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). The
standard changes the criteria to determine how an investee for a company is insufficiently
capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) and therefore should be
consolidated. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the financial
statements for any of the periods presented.
In January 2010, the FASB issued the standard, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The adoption of this standard did not have a
material impact on the financial statements for any of the periods presented.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In October 2009, the FASB issued the standard, Multiple Element Arrangements, which modifies
accounting for multiple element arrangements by requiring that the separation of the arrangements
be based on estimated selling prices based on entity specific assumptions rather than fair value,
eliminating the residual method of allocation and requiring
9
additional disclosures related to such
arrangements. The standard is effective prospectively for arrangements entered into or materially
modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company has not yet evaluated the
impact the adoption of the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Also in October 2009, the FASB issued the standard, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include
Software Elements, which amends software revenue recognition guidance to eliminate from its scope
tangible products containing software components that function together to deliver the tangible
products essential functionality and to provide guidance on how to allocate arrangement
consideration to deliverables in an arrangement that contain both tangible products and software.
The standard is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially
modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company has not yet evaluated the
impact the adoption of the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

years and thereafter is as follows: $4.4 million, $8.4 million, $7.5 million, $6.9 million, $5.1
million, and $52.4 million, respectively.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other
current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short term maturities. The carrying
amount of borrowings under the revolving credit agreement approximates fair value since the
long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. The fair value of the Convertible Notes and Term
Loan is based on market transaction prices. The fair value of interest rate protection agreements
and foreign currency forward contracts are determined based on the estimated amounts that such
contracts could be settled with the counterparty at the balance sheet date, taking into account
current interest rates, future expectations of interest rates, and L-1s current credit worthiness.
The recorded and estimated fair values are as follows for June 30, 2010 (in thousands):

Derivatives
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk and foreign exchange risks that in part are managed by
using derivative financial instruments. These derivatives include foreign currency forward
contracts related to risks associated with foreign operations and interest protection agreements
related to risks associated to variable rate borrowings. The Company does not use derivatives for
trading purposes and at June 30, 2010, has no derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges.
Derivatives are recorded at their estimated fair values. Derivatives designated and effective as
cash flow hedges are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified to
earnings in the same periods in which the hedged transactions impact earnings. Gains and losses
related to derivatives not meeting the requirements of hedge accounting and the portion of
derivatives related to hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
At June 30, 2010, the Company had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts denominated in
Japanese Yen aggregating $0.9 million. At December 31, 2009, the Company had outstanding foreign
currency contracts denominated in Japanese Yen aggregating $1.8 million.

Services revenues represent revenues from stand alone government consulting and IT
services contracts for which the Company is compensated based on time worked by its employees and
enrollment services contracts for which the Company is compensated based on volume of enrollments
performed. Solutions revenues comprise revenues from the delivery of consumables and equipment, as
well as hardware, software and systems that include related services, primarily maintenance bundled
with the related product deliverables. Because the product functionality is the primary deliverable
for the customer, we have included the total revenues from these arrangements in solutions
revenues. Solutions revenues also include revenues related to drivers license production contracts
for which we provide systems and maintenance, produce the licenses and are compensated in one
all inclusive price per license as the licenses are produced.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Aston Capital Partners, L.P. (Aston), an affiliate of L-1 Investment Partners LLC, owns
approximately 8.2 percent of L-1s outstanding common stock. Mr. Robert LaPenta, Mr. James DePalma,
Mr. Joseph Paresi and Ms. Doni Fordyce, each executive officers of the Company, directly and
indirectly hold all the beneficial ownership in L-1 Investment Partners LLC and Aston Capital
Partners GP LLC, the investment manager and general partner of Aston. Mr. LaPenta is also the
Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. Mr.
DePalma is also the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company.
In December 2005, Aston completed a $100 million investment and became the beneficial owner of
L-1s common stock. The investment agreement provides Aston with a right of first refusal to
purchase a pro rata of new securities issued by L-1, subject to specified terms.
14
On August 5, 2008, Mr. Robert LaPenta purchased 750,000 shares of L-1 common stock and 15,107
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (Series A Preferred
Stock) which in accordance with its terms was converted to 1,310,992 shares of common stock in
2009.
In connection with the merger with Identix, Aston and L-1 agreed in principle that the Company
may, subject to approval of the Companys Board of Directors, purchase AFIX Technologies, Inc.
(AFIX) a portfolio company of Aston, which provides fingerprint and palmprint identification
software to local law enforcement agencies, at fair market value to be determined by an independent
appraiser retained by the Companys Board of Directors. A committee of the Board of
Directors was appointed to evaluate a potential transaction. In March 2009, L-1 concluded that
due to a variety of factors, it was not advisable to pursue the transaction with AFIX at that point
in time. Receivables from AFIX at June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $0.2 million and $0.1 million,
respectively. Sales to AFIX for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2010 were less than
$0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the
same period in the prior year.
In connection with the relocation of the corporate headquarters of the Company in the third
quarter of 2006 to the offices of L-1 Investment Partners LLC in Stamford, Connecticut, the Company
entered into a sublease with L-1 Investment Partners LLC under which the Company will reimburse L-1
Investment Partners LLC for the rent and other costs payable by the Company. On June 29, 2009, the
sublease was extended until March 2015. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the
Company incurred costs of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.4
million for the same period in the prior year, related to the sublease agreement.
The Company has employment and non-competition agreements with all of its executive officers.
Such agreements provide for employment and related compensation and restrict the individuals from
competing with the Company. The agreements also provide for the grant of stock options under the
Companys stock option plans and for severance upon termination under circumstances defined in such
agreements.
As a condition to the closing of the merger between the Company and Identix Incorporated
(Identix), the Company and L-1 Investment Partners LLC entered into a Termination and Noncompete
Agreement which, among other things, (1) terminated all arrangements whereby L-1 Investment
Partners LLC and its affiliates provided financial, advisory, administrative or other services to
the Company or its affiliates, and (2) prohibits L-1 Investment Partners LLC and its affiliates
from engaging or assisting any person that competes directly or indirectly with the Company in the
business of biometric, credentialing and ID management business anywhere in the United States or
anywhere else in the world where the Company does business, or plans to do business or is actively
evaluating doing business during the restricted period; provided however that the foregoing does
not restrict L-1 Investment Partners LLC and its affiliates from retaining its investment in and
advising AFIX Technologies, Inc. The restricted period runs co-terminously with the term of Mr.
LaPentas employment agreement with the Company, dated as of August 29, 2006, and for a twelve
month period following the expiration of the term of Mr. LaPentas employment agreement. On April
23, 2007, the Company entered into an employee arrangement with Mr. Robert LaPenta, Jr., the son of
the Companys Chief Executive Officer, to serve as Vice President, M&A/Corporate Development.
The Company has consulting agreements with Mr. Denis K. Berube, a former member of the
Companys Board of Directors, and his spouse, Ms. Joanna Lau, under which each receives annual
compensation of $0.1 million. Each agreement terminates on the earlier of January 10, 2012, or
commencement of full time employment elsewhere. Under the terms of a 2002 acquisition agreement
with Lau Security Systems, an affiliate of Mr. Berube and Ms. Lau, the Company is obligated to pay
Lau a royalty on certain of its face recognition revenues through June 30, 2014, up to a maximum of
$27.5 million. The estimated royalty costs incurred for the three and six months ended June 30,
2010 amounted to approximately less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and less than
$0.1 million for the same periods in the prior year.
On
February 28, 2010 the Company entered into engagement letters with Goldman Sachs & Co.
(Goldman) and Stone Key Partners LLC (Stone Key), pursuant to which they will act as a
financial advisors to the Company in connection with the Companys exploration of strategic
alternatives to enhance stockholder value. Both Goldman and Stone Key were selected after a
competitive evaluation process involving multiple prospective advisors. In connection with their
respective engagements, Goldman and Stone Key may be entitled to receive customary fees from the
Company. These fees, a substantial portion of which would become payable in the event a transaction
is consummated, would be allocated approximately 58% to Goldman and 42% to Stone Key. The aggregate
transaction fee payable to the advisors would be 1.2% of the transaction value. An initial fee of
15% of the total transaction fee payable to Stone Key (to be estimated at that time) would be paid
upon the earlier of the delivery of a fairness opinion or the signing of a definitive
15
transaction
agreement. The remainder would be paid to Stone Key upon closing of the transaction. In addition,
Stone Key would be entitled to a reduced fee if the Company receives a break up fee or similar
payment in connection with the termination of a signed transaction agreement. Similar features
apply to the Goldman Sachs engagement fee structure and the Company believes such arrangements are
customary. Consideration of strategic alternatives by the L-1 Board of Directors may not result in
a sale transaction, therefore there is no assurance that this process will result in a sale of the
Company or any other specific transaction pursuant to which Goldman or Stone Key would earn a fee,
and the amount of any such fee cannot currently be estimated.
Michael J. Urfirer, is a co-owner and co-founder of Stone Keys parent company, is Co-Chairman
and Co-CEO of Stone Key, and is also the husband of Doni L. Fordyce, our Executive Vice President
of Corporate Communications. Mr. Urfirer has confirmed to the Company that he has no specific
interest in any fees paid to Stone Key attributable to his status as co-owner of Stone Key and its
affiliates or otherwise. He will not receive any commission, direct
participation or similar payment in connection
with Stone Keys receipt of any fees. In his capacity as an employee of Stone Keys parent company,
Stone Key Group LLC (SKG), Mr. Urfirer receives a salary from SKG which is not based on fees. In
addition, in his capacity as the holder of an interest in SKG, Mr. Urfirer is entitled to a
percentage of SKGs profits. The profits interest in SKG held by Mr. Urfirer is not a fixed
percentage and will vary based on the revenues and expenses of SKG, the operation of payment
priorities in SKGs LLC Agreement and potential future dilution. Under certain scenarios, Mr.
Urfirers interest in SKGs 2010 profits could be equal to but will in no event exceed 50%.
Mr. Urfirer and Stone Keys other Co-Chairman and Co-CEO hold personal investments in Aston
Capital Partners, L.P. as minority limited partners. Certain of our executive officers, including
Mr. LaPenta, Mr. DePalma, Mr. Paresi and Ms. Fordyce, control Aston Capital Partners, L.P. through
their ownership interest in the general partner.

Scheduled principal payments on long-term debt and financing arrangements for the
subsequent four years are as follows: $45.0 million, $33.9 million, $218.7 million and $183.8
million. The Convertible Notes final maturity date is 2027, but the holders have the right to
require the Company to repurchase the Notes at par in 2012. The repayment schedule assumes that it
will be repaid in 2012.
Credit Agreement
On August 5, 2008, L-1 entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the
Credit Agreement), among L-1 Identity Operating, L-1, Bank of America, N.A., Wachovia Bank,
National Association, Banc of America Securities LLC and Wachovia Capital Markets LLC, Royal Bank
of Canada, Societe Generale and TD Bank, N.A. to amend and restate the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement, by and among L-1, Bank of America, N.A. (Administrative Agent), Bear Stearns Corporate
Lending, Inc., Bear Stearns & Co., Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Wachovia Bank, N.A. and
Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan
facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300.0 million, with a term of five years, and a
senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $135.0 million.
The proceeds of the senior secured
16
facilities were used to (i) fund, in part, the purchase price
paid, and fees and expenses incurred, in connection with L-1s acquisition of Digimarc Corporation
after giving effect to the spin-off of its digital watermarking business (Old Digimarc), (ii)
repay borrowings under L-1s existing revolving credit facility and (iii) provide ongoing working
capital and fund other general corporate purposes of L-1. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has
approximately $95.0 million available under its revolving credit facility, subject to continuing
compliance with the covenants contained in the agreement.
On July 9, 2009, L-1 entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement pursuant to which the
term loans under the Credit Agreement have been split into two tranches: the Tranche B-1 Term Loan
and the Tranche B-2 Term Loan. The Tranche B-1 Term Loan, with an aggregate principal amount of
approximately $140.5 million at June 30, 2010, requires annual principal payments (payable
quarterly) of 10 percent of the original principal amount through September 30, 2010, 20 percent of
the original principal amount through September 30, 2012, and thereafter increasing over the
duration of the Credit Agreement. The Tranche B-2 Term Loan, with an aggregate principal amount of
approximately $132.8 million at June 30, 2010, requires annual principal payments (also payable
quarterly) of 1 percent of the related original principal amounts over the remaining term of the
Credit Agreement. There were $32.0 million of borrowings and $8.0 million of letters of credit that
were outstanding under the revolving credit facility, respectively, at June 30, 2010.
Under the terms of the amended senior secured credit facility, the Company has the option to
borrow at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 3 percent) plus 2.75 percent to 5.0 percent per annum or at
prime (subject to a floor of 2 percent) plus 1.75 percent to 4.0 percent per annum. L-1 is required
to pay a fee of 0.5 percent on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. All obligations
of L-1 Operating under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by L-1 and by
each of L-1s existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions). At June 30, 2010, the interest rates were 6.75
percent for Tranche B-1 Term Loans, 7.25 percent for Tranche B-2 Term Loans and 6.0 percent for
borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
L-1 is required to maintain the following financial covenants under the Credit Agreement:
|
|
|
Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio. As of the end of any fiscal quarter, the ratio
of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 Operating and its
consolidated subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or
immediately prior to such date to the sum of (i) Consolidated Interest Charges (as defined
in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 Operating and its consolidated subsidiaries paid or payable
in cash during the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or immediately prior
to such date, plus (ii) Consolidated Debt Amortization (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
of L-1 Operating and its consolidated subsidiaries as of such date, shall not be less than
2.25:1.00, subject to the amendment described below. |
|
|
|
|
Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of the end of any fiscal quarter, the ratio of L-1
Operatings Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement, which
excludes standby letters of credit issued in connection with performance bonds) as of such
date to its Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the period of four
consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or immediately prior to such date, may not be more
than: (i) 3.25:1.00 from the Closing Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to and
including March 31, 2010, (ii) 3.00:1.00 from March 31, 2010 to March 30, 2011, and (iii)
2.75:1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter, which has been amended as described
below. |
L-1 amended the Credit Agreement, reducing the minimum Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio from
2.25:1.00 to 1.65:1.00 and increasing the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio
from 3.00:1.00 to 3.85:1.00 for the measurement periods ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. If,
prior to August 31, 2010, the Company enters into a definitive agreement to sell all or
substantially all of the assets and operations of the Company, the amended ratios will be extended
to December 30, 2010 and includes the September 30, 2010 measurement period. At June 30, 2010 the
Companys Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio was 2.12:1.00 and the Consolidated Leverage
Ratio was 3.21:1.00; accordingly the Company was in compliance with
the amended covenants at June 30, 2010. If the
Company does not enter into a definitive agreement by August 31, 2010, the Company would be required to comply with the original
financial ratios for the measurement period ended September 30,
2010. The Company may be required to amend its Credit Agreement
pending completion of the ongoing strategic process to remain in
compliance with the covenants. If a sale does not occur,
the Company expects to refinance its debt on a long term basis or
otherwise take other actions to
repay or amend the loan.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, L-1 Operating may incur, assume or
guarantee unsecured subordinated indebtedness in an amount up to $200.0 million, provided that no
default or event of default shall have occurred or would occur as a result of the incurrence of
such subordinated debt and the borrower and its subsidiaries are
17
in pro forma compliance, after
giving effect to the incurrence of such subordinated debt, with each of the covenants in the Credit
Agreement, including, without limitation, the financial covenants described above.
Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, L-1 may incur, assume or guarantee
any amount of unsecured subordinated indebtedness, provided, that no default or event of default
shall have occurred or would occur as a result of the incurrence of such subordinated debt and the
pro forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 and its
subsidiaries after giving effect to the incurrence of such subordinated debt shall be less than
4.75:1.00. The Credit Agreement limits the ability of L-1 to (i) pay dividends or other
distributions or repurchase capital stock, (ii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
indebtedness, (iii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist liens upon any of its property, assets
or revenues, (iv) sell, transfer, license, lease or otherwise dispose of any property, (v) make or
become legally obligated to make capital expenditures above certain thresholds, subject to certain
permitted adjustments, (vi) make investments, including acquisitions, and (vii) enter into
transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and
qualifications. The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default which include
(subject in certain cases to grace and cure periods), among others: nonpayment, breach of covenants
or other agreements in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit
Agreement), payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, failure to pay certain
judgments, inability to pay debts as they become due and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency
or reorganization.
If an event of default, including a change in control, occurs (as defined in the Credit
Agreement), the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders declare all
outstanding indebtedness including accrued and unpaid interest under the Credit Agreement to be due
and payable.
In October 2008, the Company entered into an interest rate protection agreement to reduce its
exposure to the variable interest rate payments on its term loan. The interest rate protection
agreement has a notional amount of $62.5 million, and expires in November, 2011. Under the term of
the agreement, the Company pays the counterparty a fixed rate of 4.1 percent and receives variable
interest based on three-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 3.0 percent). In May 2009, the Company
entered into two additional interest rate protection agreements with notional amounts of $50.0
million each pursuant to which the Company pays a fixed rate of 1.4 percent and receives three
month LIBOR. The counterparties to the agreements are highly rated financial institutions. In the
unlikely event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the interest rate swap agreement,
the Companys exposure is limited to the interest rate differential on the notional amount at each
quarterly settlement period over the life of the agreements. L-1 does not anticipate
non-performance by the counterparties.
Convertible Senior Notes
On May 17, 2007, the Company issued $175.0 million of Convertible Notes with a conversion
feature which allows the Company the option to settle the debt either in shares of common stock or
to settle the principal amount in cash and the conversion spread in cash or common stock. The
proceeds of the Convertible Notes offering, net of deferred financing costs amounted to $168.7
million. The embedded conversion feature has not been deemed a derivative since the conversion
feature is indexed to the Companys stock and would be classified as equity.
The Notes are governed by an indenture, dated May 17, 2007 (the Indenture), between the
Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee. The Notes will be convertible only under certain
circumstances, as described below. If, at the time of conversion, the daily volume-weighted average
price per share for a 25 trading day period calculated in accordance with the Indenture (as defined
in greater detail in the Indenture, VWAP) of the Companys common stock is less than or equal to
$32.00 per share, which is referred to as the base conversion price, the Notes will be convertible
into 31.25 shares of common stock of the Company per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, subject
to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. If, at the time of conversion, the VWAP of the
shares of common stock of the Company exceeds the base conversion price of $32.00 per share, the
conversion rate will be determined pursuant to a formula resulting in holders receipt of up to an
additional 14 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, subject to
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events and determined as set forth in the Indenture. The
Notes are convertible until the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding
May 15, 2027, in multiples of $1,000 in principal amount, at the option of the holder under the
following circumstances: (1) during the five business-day period after any five consecutive trading
day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price the Note, for each day of such
measurement period was less than 98 percent of the product of the last reported sale price of
shares of common stock of the Company and the applicable conversion rate for such trading day; (2)
during any fiscal quarter, if the last reported sale price of shares of common stock of the Company
for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30
18
consecutive trading days ending on the last trading
day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130 percent of the
base conversion price on the related trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the Notes
for redemption; and (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions described in the
Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company has the right to deliver shares of common stock based upon
the applicable conversion rate, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, if any, based
on a daily conversion value as described above calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading
day of a 25 trading-day observation period. In the event of a fundamental change as specified in
the Indenture, the Company will increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares of
common stock specified in the Indenture, or, in lieu thereof, the Company may in certain
circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate and related conversion obligation so that the
Notes will become convertible into shares of the acquiring or surviving company.
The Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75 percent per year payable semiannually in arrears in
cash on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2027, unless earlier
converted, redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in
part, on or after May 20, 2012, subject to prior notice as provided in the Indenture. The
redemption price during that period will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The holders can require the Company to
repurchase the Notes for cash on May 15, 2012, May 15, 2017 and May 15, 2020. The embedded
redemption and repurchase provisions have not been separated from the host contracts and accounted
for as derivatives because such embedded derivatives are deemed to be clearly and closely related
to the host contract.
The Convertible Notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of L-1 Operating. Under
the term of the Credit Agreement, as defined above, L-1 Operating may not make any dividend payment
to the Company except to permit the Company to make scheduled interest payments on the subordinated
debt up to a maximum of $10.0 million per year, and certain tax liabilities. However, subject to
certain prepayment requirements under the Credit Agreement, the Company may prepay, redeem or
repurchase the Convertible Notes in amounts not in excess of proceeds from the issuance of
additional equity securities of the Company.
Upon consummation of any share exchange, consolidation or merger of L-1 pursuant to which its
common stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property or any sale, lease or other
transfer in one transaction or a series of transactions of all or substantially all of L-1s and
L-1s subsidiaries assets, taken as a whole, to any person other than one of its subsidiaries, the
holders of the Convertible Notes can require the Company to repurchase all outstanding debt at a
purchase price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
6. EQUITY
Warrants
In connection with the merger with Identix, the Company assumed Identix obligation under a
warrant which was issued in exchange for the technology and intellectual property rights acquired
by Identix. The warrant was issued with contingent future vesting rights to purchase up to 378,400
shares of common stock at $9.94 per share. The fair value of the warrant at the time of vesting
will be recorded as additional cost of the acquisition of Identix. The warrant vests upon
successful issuance of certain patents with the U.S. government related to the technology acquired.
As of June 30, 2010, 141,900 warrants were vested of which 17,738 have been exercised, and 236,500
remain unvested. The warrants expire in 2014.
Pre-paid Forward Contract
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes on May 17, 2007, the Company entered
into a contract with Bear Stearns (subsequently acquired by JP Morgan Chase & Co.) to purchase
3,490,400 shares of the Companys common stock at a purchase price of $20.00 per share. Under the
agreement, Bear Stearns is required to deliver the shares to the Company in April-May 2012. At
closing of the Convertible Notes, the Company settled its obligation under the pre-paid forward
contract to Bear Stearns for cash of $69.8 million. The fair value of the obligation (which is
equal to the cash paid) has been accounted for as a repurchase of common stock and as a reduction
of equity. Under terms of the contract, any dividend payment that Bear Stearns would otherwise be
entitled to on the common stock during the term of the contract would be paid to the Company. The
transaction is subject to early settlement or settlement with alternative consideration in the
event of certain significant corporate transactions such as a change in control.
19
Issuance of Equity Securities
On August 5, 2008, pursuant to the terms and conditions of (i) the Securities Purchase
Agreement, by and between L-1 and Robert V. LaPenta (the LaPenta Agreement), (ii) the Securities
Purchase Agreement (the Iridian Agreement), by and between L-1 and Iridian Asset Management LLC
(Iridian) and (iii) the LRSR LLC Agreement (together with the LaPenta Agreement and Iridian
Agreement, the Investor Agreements), L-1 issued an aggregate of 8,083,472 shares of L-1 common
stock and 15,107 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the Series A Preferred Stock)
for aggregate proceeds to L-1 of $119.0 million, net of related issuance costs, which were used to
fund a portion of L-1s acquisition of Old Digimarc. In accordance with its terms, the Series A
Preferred Stock was converted to 1,310,992 shares of common stock in 2009.

The aggregate unearned compensation cost of unvested options outstanding as of June 30, 2010
was $12.1 million and will be amortized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. The total
intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was $0.3
million and $0.4 million, respectively. The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between
the market value of the Companys common stock and the exercise price of options.
For the six month period ending June 30, 2010, the Company awarded 410,787 shares of restricted
stock to officers, directors and employees and had total outstanding restricted stock awards of
1,750,064 as of June 30, 2010. The restricted stock vests over four years and the weighted average
grant date fair value was $7.38 at June 30, 2010. At June 30, 2010, approximately 1,367,000 shares
are expected to vest. Unearned compensation related to restricted stock that is expected to vest
approximated $7.8 million at June 30, 2010. Options and restricted stock expected to vest are
determined by applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumptions to total outstanding options and

8. LITIGATION
Old Digimarc Litigation
In connection with the Companys August 2008 acquisition of Old Digimarc, which consisted of
its Secure ID Business following the spin-off of its digital watermarking business, the Company
assumed certain legal proceedings of Old Digimarc as described below.
Beginning in May 2001, a number of substantially identical class action complaints alleging
violations of the federal securities laws were filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York naming approximately 300 companies, including Old Digimarc, certain
officers and directors and certain underwriters of the companies initial public offerings as
defendants. The complaints were subsequently consolidated into a single action, and a consolidated
amended complaint was filed in April 2002. The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that
the underwriters of Old Digimarcs initial public offering violated securities laws by failing to
disclose certain alleged compensation arrangements in Old Digimarcs initial public offering
registration statement and by engaging in manipulative practices to artificially inflate the price
of Old Digimarcs stock in the aftermarket subsequent to the initial public offering. Old Digimarc
and certain of its officers and directors are named in the amended complaint pursuant to Section 11
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 on the basis of an alleged failure to disclose the underwriters alleged compensation
arrangements and manipulative practices. The complaint sought unspecified damages. In July 2002,
the claims against Old Digimarc under Section 10(b) were dismissed. In October 2002, the individual
officer and director defendants were dismissed without prejudice pursuant to tolling agreements. In
June 2004, a stipulation of partial settlement among the plaintiffs, the companies, and the
officers and directors was submitted to the District Court. While the partial settlement was
pending approval, the plaintiffs continued to litigate their claims against the underwriter
defendants. The district court directed that the litigation proceed within a number of focus
cases rather than in all of the 309 cases that have now been consolidated. Old Digimarc was not
one of these focus
cases. In October 2004, the district court certified the focus cases as class actions. The
underwriter defendants appealed that ruling and, on December 5, 2006, the Court of Appeals for the
Second Circuit reversed the district courts class certification decision for the six focus cases.
In light of the Second Circuit opinion, in June 2007, the district court entered an order
terminating the settlement. On August 14, 2007, the plaintiffs filed their second consolidated
amended class action complaints against the focus cases and on September 27, 2007, again moved for
class certification. On November 12, 2007, certain of the defendants in the focus cases moved to
dismiss the second consolidated amended class action complaints. The court issued an opinion and
order on March 26, 2008, denying the motions to dismiss except as to Section 11 claims raised by
those plaintiffs who sold their securities for a price in excess of the initial offering price and
those who purchased outside the previously certified class period. The class certification motion
was withdrawn without prejudice on October 10, 2008. On April 2, 2009, a stipulation and agreement
of settlement among the plaintiffs, issuer defendants (including Old Digimarc) and underwriter
defendants was submitted to the Court for preliminary approval. Old Digimarcs portion of the
settlement, which is wholly immaterial, is covered entirely by insurance.
On June 10, 2009, the Judge granted preliminary approval of the settlement, and on October 5,
2009, the Judge granted final approval of the settlement. Since that time, however, six groups of
appellants have filed timely notices of appeal. On June 18, 2010, the District Court ordered that
the appellants post an appeal bond of $25,000. Although one of the groups of appellants has
appealed this order, an appeal bond of $25,000 was posted on July 16, 2010, The schedule for filing
appellate briefs has not yet been set by the Second Circuit.
On October 10, 2007, an Old Digimarc stockholder filed a lawsuit in the United States District
Court for the Western District of Washington against several companies that acted as lead
underwriters for the Old Digimarc initial public offering. The complaint, which
also named Old
Digimarc as a nominal defendant but did not assert any claims against Old Digimarc, asserted claims
against the underwriters under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On February
28, 2008, an amended complaint was filed, with Old Digimarc still named only as a nominal
defendant. Similar complaints have been filed by this same plaintiff against a number of other
issuers in connection with their initial public offerings, and the factual allegations are closely
related to the allegations in the litigation pending in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York which is described above. On March 12, 2009, after considering
motions to dismiss, one filed by thirty moving issuers and the other filed by the underwriters, the
judge dismissed the plaintiffs claims on a jurisdictional and statute of limitations basis. On
April 10, 2009, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the dismissal. The final appellate brief
was filed on November 17, 2009; the Ninth Circuit has not indicated whether it will schedule oral
arguments. The Company currently believes that the outcome of this litigation will not have a
material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations.
On May 12, 2010, the Company was served with a complaint in the U.S. District Court, District of Delaware,
alleging patent infringement of US
Patent No. 5,913,542 for a system to produce personal ID cards. On July 6, 2010, the Company filed
an answer to the complaint, which
21
contained counterclaims for a declaratory judgment against the
complainant. Based on the preliminary nature of the proceedings, it is not possible at this stage
to quantify the potential damages, exposure or liability to L-1, if any.
Other
The Company records a liability for any claim, demand, litigation and other contingency when
management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and can reasonably
estimate the amount of the potential loss. Based on current information and belief, the Company
believes it has adequate provisions for any such matters. The Company reviews these provisions
quarterly and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings,
advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.
However, because of the inherent uncertainties of litigation the ultimate outcome of certain
litigation cannot be accurately predicted by the Company; it is therefore possible that the
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company could be
materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more
of these matters and contingencies.
9. INCOME TAXES
For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 the tax benefit was $2.7 million and $2.2 million,
respectively and the pre-tax loss was $13.0 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The tax benefit
is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate applied to the cumulative year to date results
for both periods. Separate annual effective tax rates were used for entities that file returns on a
separate company basis and expect to report losses for the full year, which have an estimated
annual effective tax rate of 0%. The remaining entities included in the condensed consolidated
financial statements have estimated annual effective tax rates of 31% and 40% for the six months
ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The provision for the six months ended June 30, 2010 also reflects
the impact of the discrete items which are not
deductible for federal income tax purposes.
10. SEGMENT REPORTING, GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION AND CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
The Companys operating segments have been aggregated in two reportable segments: Solutions and
Services. The Solutions reportable segment provides solutions that enable governments, law
enforcement agencies, and businesses to enhance security, reduce identity theft, and protect
personal privacy utilizing secure credential provisioning and authentication systems, biometric
technology and the creation, enhancement and/or utilization of identity databases. The Services
reportable segment provides finger-print based background checks enrollment services to government,
civil, and commercial customers, as well as information technology and security consulting services
to U.S. Government agencies. The Company measures segment performance primarily based on revenues
and operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA. Operating results by segment, including allocation
of corporate expenses, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 are as follows (in
thousands):

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Introduction
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in L-1s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K
and the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. (L-1 or the Company) is a provider of technology, products,
systems and solutions, and services that protect and secure personal identities and assets.
Together with its divisions, L-1 delivers the full range of offerings required for solving complex
problems associated with managing identity. The Company operates in two reportable segments:
Solutions and Services.
Business Overview
The Solutions reportable segment consists of the Secure Credentialing and Biometrics /
Enterprise Access operating segments. Solutions from these operating segments are marketed to
Federal agencies, State and Local government agencies (including law enforcement and department of
corrections), foreign governments, and commercial entities (such as financial and health care
institutions and casinos). Solutions revenue includes products and related services, which are
comprised of hardware, components, consumables and software, as well as maintenance; consulting and
training services, which are generally sold in bundled solutions.
The Services reportable segment includes the Enrollment Services, the SpecTal/McClendon and
Advanced Concepts operating segments. Enrollment Services performs finger-print based background
checks for civil and government applications. SpecTal/McClendon and Advanced Concepts offer
comprehensive consulting, program management, information analysis, training, security, technology
development, and information technology solutions to the U.S. intelligence community. Services
provided by our services operating segments can be bundled with solutions offered by our Solutions
operating segment to create a fully integrated solution.
The Company evaluates businesses and their management primarily through financial metrics
including revenues, operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest
expense-net, depreciation and amortization, stock- based compensation expense, asset impairments
and provision (benefit) for income taxes).
In January 2010, L-1 announced that one of its strategic goals and objectives for 2010 was to
explore alternatives to enhance shareholder value. The Company has engaged advisors to assist in
evaluating potential value enhancing alternatives. At this time, there can be no assurance that our
strategic alternative review will result in a transaction. Consequently, the financial statements
do not reflect the impact of any possible transaction, except for costs incurred in connection with
exploring strategic alternatives.
In the last two years management considered the following factors, among others in evaluating
its financial condition and operating results:
|
|
|
Our Biometrics operating segment, while having significant growth opportunities, may be
subject to the lengthy sales cycles involved in large government procurements domestically
and internationally. For example, during 2009 and 2010 the Company has experienced a delay
regarding the sale of an increased capacity license relating to an existing customer. A
portion of the capacity license was delivered in the second quarter of 2010. |
|
|
|
|
Our Secure Credentialing operating segment has been successful in winning large
competitive credentialing contracts and continues to have significant opportunities in
assisting U.S. Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) with cost effective and efficient programs. International new awards can
be subject to lengthy sales cycles and delays, as recently has been the case in connection
with certain programs in Africa and South America. |
|
|
|
|
Our Government Consulting Services businesses have been successful in market growth, despite the publicly
announced goal of certain agencies in the intelligence
community to reduce reliance on outside contractors. |
24
|
|
|
We have been awarded 19 out of 23 competitive driver license contracts and contract
extensions since January 1, 2009, which will result in significant revenue increases over
the term of the contracts once the systems are implemented. These secure solutions require
up front capital expenditures before such revenue increases are realized. Capital
expenditures, which are primarily related to the secure credentialing business, aggregated
approximately $55.0 million in 2009 and are expected to approximate this amount in 2010. We
expect that there will be a significant decline in capital expenditures in 2011 as the
majority of our recently awarded drivers license contracts will be implemented. |
|
|
|
|
Our existing credit agreement which was executed in August 2008 in the midst of the
severe global economic crisis contains certain restrictions, principal repayment schedules
and financial covenants that are significantly more restrictive than those prevailing in the
current lending environment. In 2009 and 2010, we amended the credit agreement to reduce the
principal payments on a permanent basis, and recently modified certain financial covenants
to provide for significant operating flexibility as we conduct and complete our strategic
alternative review process. If a definitive agreement for a sale transaction is not executed on or prior to August 31, 2010, the Company may be required to amend its credit agreement pending completion of the ongoing strategic review process to remain in compliance with the covanants. If a sale does not occur, the Company expects to refinance its debt on a long term basis
or otherwise take other actions to repay or amend the loan. |
|
|
|
|
While we have grown significantly though acquisitions, we have not consummated any
acquisitions since the August 2008 acquisition of the secure ID systems business of
Digimarc, as we have focused on growing the existing business to improve our liquidity. |
L-1s revenues decreased to $164.1 million and $312.3 million for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2010, from $168.1 million and $318.2 million for the three and six months ended June
30, 2009, respectively. L-1s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was $2.7
million and $10.3 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million and $5.0 million for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2009, of which $2.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively, related
to costs incurred in connection with strategic alternative related expenses, acquisition related expenses and severance costs in
2010. These results have been impacted by the considerations described above. Additional specific
events that directly impacted the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are
discussed in the Consolidated Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections.
Adjusted EBITDA
L-1 uses Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. Adjusted EBITDA is
calculated by adding back to net income (loss): interest-net, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization, goodwill and long-lived asset impairments and stock-based compensation, including
retirement plan contributions settled, or to be settled, in common stock. Adjusted EBITDA is
provided to investors to supplement the results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to help investors analyze the operating trends of the
business and to assess the relative underlying performance of businesses with different capital and
tax structures. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for
investors to use in comparing L-1s financial results with other companies in the industry, many of
which also use Adjusted EBITDA in their communications to investors. By excluding non-cash charges
such as amortization and depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, goodwill and long-lived
asset impairments as well as non-operating charges for interest-net and income taxes, investors can
evaluate L-1s operations and can compare L-1s results on a more consistent basis to the results
of other companies. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate potential acquisitions, establish
internal budgets and goals, evaluate performance of L-1s business units and management, and to
evaluate compliance with debt covenants.
L-1 considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of the Companys operational
strength and performance of its business and a useful measure of L-1s historical and prospective
operating trends. However, there are significant limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA since it
excludes interest income and expense, income taxes, goodwill and long-lived asset impairments, and
stock-based compensation expense, including retirement plan contributions settled, or to be settled
in common stock, all of which impact L-1s profitability, as well as depreciation, and amortization
related to the use of long-lived assets that benefit multiple periods. The Company believes that
these limitations are compensated for by providing Adjusted EBITDA only with GAAP performance
measures and clearly identifying the difference between the two measures. Consequently, Adjusted
EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), or operating
income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA as defined by the Company may not
be comparable with similarly named measures provided by other entities.

Revenues decreased to approximately $164.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010
compared to approximately $168.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, or $4.0 million.
Revenues decreased to approximately $312.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared
to approximately $318.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, or $5.9 million. In both
the three and six month periods, there were lower revenues due to
lower U.S. Passport Card and HIIDE
shipments in comparison to the relevant 2009 periods. This decline
was partially offset by the follow-on sale of an Automated Biometric
Identification System (ABIS) capacity license for approximately $5.0
million and higher volumes in our background screening and government consulting services included
in our Services segment. Shipments of U.S. Passport Card orders
during the first half were delayed due to orders being received later
in the period than expected. Full year U.S. Passport Card revenues
are expected to be realized in the second half of 2010 as shipments are
made against orders, the majority of which have already been received.

Cost of revenues decreased by $1.7 million and increased by $0.3 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the prior year. The decrease in the three
month period is primarily due to lower revenues in U.S. Passport Card shipments. The increase
in the six month period is primarily attributable to an increase in revenue from the enrollment
services product line offset partially by lower volumes in our secure credentialing business. As a
result, consolidated gross margins were 28 percent for both for the three and six month period
ended June 30, 2010 compared to 29 percent in the corresponding periods in the prior year.
Included in the cost of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were non cash
charges of $10.8 million and $21.4 million, respectively, compared to corresponding amounts of $9.9
million and $19.6 million in the same period in 2009.

for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the prior year period.

in certain of our businesses. Sales and marketing expenses consists primarily of salaries and costs

Research and development expenses decreased by approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. L-1
continues to focus on enhancing our credentialing and biometric solutions offerings while at the
same time maximizing our research costs to focus on those activities with the greatest
technological and revenue potential. Gross research and development expenses were offset by higher
utilization of research and development resources in the performance of contracts, the cost of
which is included in cost of revenues, and in other projects. Gross research and development
expenditures aggregated $12.7 million and $25.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
2010, respectively, compared to $11.1 million and $22.6 million for the comparable period in the
prior year. Virtually all of our research and development costs are attributable to our Solutions
segment. As a percentage of Solutions revenues, gross research and development costs were 17
percent and 14 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Research and
development expenses consist
28
primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, including stock-based compensation and other
costs related to the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products.

the exploration of strategic alternatives in 2010.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, net financing costs increased by approximately
$0.5 million and decreased by less than $0.1 million from the comparable period in the prior year,
respectively. The increase in the three month period ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the
comparable period in the prior year is primarily due to interest on borrowings outstanding under
the revolving credit facility.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 the tax benefit was $2.7 million and $2.2 million,
respectively and the pre-tax loss was $13.0 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The tax benefit
is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate applied to the cumulative year to date results
for both periods. Separate annual effective tax rates were used for entities that file returns on a
separate company basis and expect to report losses for the full year, which have an estimated
annual effective tax rate of 0%. The remaining entities included in the condensed consolidated
financial statements have estimated annual effective tax rates of 31% and 40% for the six months
ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The provision for the six months ended June 30, 2010
also reflects the impact of the discrete items which are not deductible for federal income tax
purposes. The provision for the six months ended June 30, 2010 also reflects the impact of the

2010 of $2.7 million and $10.2 million compared to $1.2 million and $5.0 million in the prior year
period, changes in the fair value and amortization of derivatives accounted for as hedges which
resulted in gains of $0.2 million and $0.5 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively, and translation
losses of $1.8 million in 2010 and gains of $0.3 million in 2009, resulting from the changes in the
value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, primarily the Euro and the Canadian
Dollar.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Capital Requirements
L-1s most significant capital requirements consist of acquisitions, capital expenditures for
new secure credentialing contracts, research and development and working capital needs. The most
significant capital expenditures are related to our Solutions segment. When we bid on new state
drivers license contracts, we must commit to provide up front capital expenditures in order to
install systems necessary to perform under the contract. It is expected that our capital
requirements will increase as we bid on and are awarded new contracts or as contracts are renewed.
During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, our capital expenditures were $25.0 million
compared to $22.3 million, respectively. In the year ended December 31, 2009, capital expenditures
approximated $55.0 million and are expected to be at a similar level for the full year 2010,
primarily related to new contract awards in our secure credentialing business. L-1 expects to fund
its capital requirements primarily with operating cash flows and borrowings under the revolving
credit facility, and may consider an equipment financing transactions if favorable terms are
available.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2010, we had $18.3 million of working capital including deferred income taxes
of $11.4 million, $2.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and current maturities of long term
debt of $35.0 million. In addition, we have financing arrangements, as further described below,
available to support our ongoing liquidity needs, pursuant to which we have available $95.0 million
at June 30, 2010 subject to continuing compliance with our debt covenants. L-1 believes that our
existing cash and cash equivalent balances, existing financing arrangements and cash flows from
operations will be sufficient to meet our operating and debt service requirements for the next 12
months. However, it is likely that we will require additional financing to improve our liquidity
and in that connection, we evaluate financing needs and the terms and conditions and availability
under our credit facility on a regular basis and consider other financing options. L-1 may also
pursue reduction of our current indebtedness if equity financing can be obtained on advantageous
terms and may take other actions to improve liquidity. There can be no assurance that additional
debt or equity financing will be available or that other actions can be taken on commercially
reasonable terms, or at all. L-1s ability to meet our business plan is dependent on a number of
factors, including those described in the section of this report entitled Risk Factors and those
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Credit Agreement
On August 5, 2008, L-1 entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the
Credit Agreement), among L-1s wholly owned subsidiary L-1 Identity Operating, L-1, Bank of
America, N.A., Wachovia Bank, National Association, Banc of America Securities LLC and Wachovia
Capital Markets LLC, to amend and restate the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, by and among
L-1, Bank of America, N.A. (Administrative Agent), Bear Stearns Corporate Lending, Inc., Bear
Stearns & Co., Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Wachovia Bank, N.A. and Credit Suisse, Cayman
Islands Branch. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility in an
aggregate principal amount of up to $300.0 million, with a term of five years, and a senior secured
revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $135.0 million. The proceeds of
the senior secured facilities were used to (i) fund, in part, the purchase price paid, and fees and
expenses incurred, in connection with L-1s acquisition of Digimarc Corporation after giving effect
to the spin-off of its digital watermarking business (Old Digimarc), (ii) repay borrowings under
L-1s then existing revolving credit facility and (iii) provide ongoing working capital and fund
other general corporate purposes of L-1.
On July 9, 2009, L-1 entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement pursuant to which the
term loans under the Credit Agreement have been split into two tranches: the Tranche B-1 Term Loan
and the Tranche B-2 Term Loan. The Tranche B-1 Term Loan, with an aggregate principal amount of
approximately $140.5 million at June 30, 2010, requires annual principal payments (payable
quarterly) of 10 percent of the original principal amount through September 30, 2010, 20 percent of
the original principal amount through September 30, 2012, and thereafter, increasing over the
duration of the Credit Agreement. The Tranche B-2 Term Loan, with an aggregate principal amount of
approximately $132.8 million at June 30, 2010, requires annual principal payments (also payable
quarterly) of 1 percent of the related original principal amounts over the remaining term of the
Credit Agreement. There were $32.0 million of borrowings that were outstanding under the revolving
credit facility at June 30, 2010.
Under the terms of the amended senior secured credit facility, the Company has the option to
borrow at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 3 percent) plus 2.75 percent to 5.0 percent per annum or at
prime (subject to a floor of 2 percent) plus 1.75 percent to 4.0 percent per annum. L-1 is required
to pay a fee of 0.5 percent on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. All obligations
of L-1 Operating under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed on a
senior secured basis by L-1
31
and by each of L-1s existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect
wholly-owned subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions). At June 30, 2010, the interest rates
were 6.75 percent for Tranche B-1 Term Loans, 7.25 percent for Tranche B-2 Term Loans and 6.0
percent for borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
L-1 is required to maintain the following financial covenants under the Credit Agreement:
|
|
|
Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio. As of the end of any fiscal quarter, the ratio
of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 Operating and its
consolidated subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or
immediately prior to such date to the sum of (i) Consolidated Interest Charges (as defined
in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 Operating and its consolidated subsidiaries paid or payable
in cash during the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or immediately prior
to such date, plus (ii) Consolidated Debt Amortization (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
of L-1 Operating and its consolidated subsidiaries as of such date, shall not be less than
2.25:1.00, subject to the amendment described below. |
|
|
|
|
Consolidated Debt Coverage Ratio. As of the end of any fiscal quarter, the ratio of L-1
Operatings Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement which
excludes standby letters of credit issued in connection with performance bonds) as of such
date to its Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the period of four
consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or immediately prior to such date, may not be more
than: (i) 3.25:1.00 from the Closing Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to and
including March 30, 2010, (ii) 3.00:1.00 from March 31, 2010 to March 30, 2011, and (iii)
2.75:1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter, which has been amended as described
below. |
L-1 amended the Credit Agreement, reducing the minimum Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio from
2.25:1.00 to 1.65:1.00
and increasing the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio from
3.00:1.00 to 3.85:1.00
for the measurement periods ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. If,
prior to August 31, 2010, the Company enters into a definitive agreement to sell all or
substantially all of the assets and operations of the Company, the amended ratios will be extended
to December 30, 2010 and includes the September 30, 2010 measurement period. At June 30, 2010 the
Companys Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio was 2.12:1.00 and the Consolidated Leverage
Ratio was 3.21:1.00; accordingly the Company was in compliance with the amended covenants at June 30, 2010. If the
Company does not enter into a definitive agreement by August 31, 2010, the Company would be required to comply with the original
financial ratios for the measurement period ended September 30, 2010. The Company may be required to amend its Credit Agreement pending completion of the ongoing strategic process to remain in compliance with the covenants. If a sale does not occur,
the Company expects to refinance its debt on a long term basis or otherwise take other actions to
repay or amend the loan.
As of June 30, 2010, the Company has approximately $95.0 million available under its revolving
credit facility, subject to continuing compliance with covenants under the credit agreement.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, L-1 Operating may incur, assume or
guarantee unsecured subordinated indebtedness in an amount up to $200.0 million, provided that no
default or event of default shall have occurred or would occur as a result of the incurrence of
such subordinated debt and the borrower and its subsidiaries are in pro forma compliance, after
giving effect to the incurrence of such subordinated debt, with each of the covenants in the Credit
Agreement, including, without limitation, the financial covenants described above.
Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, L-1 may incur, assume or guarantee
any amount of unsecured subordinated indebtedness, provided, that no default or event of default
shall have occurred or would occur as a result of the incurrence of such subordinated debt and the
pro forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of L-1 and its
subsidiaries after giving effect to the incurrence of such subordinated debt shall be less than
4.75:1.00. The Credit Agreement limits the ability of L-1 to (i) pay dividends or other
distributions or repurchase capital stock, (ii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
indebtedness, (iii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist liens upon any of its property, assets
or revenues, (iv) sell, transfer, license, lease or otherwise dispose of any property, (v) make or
become legally obligated to make capital expenditures above certain thresholds, subject to certain
permitted adjustments, (vi) make investments, including acquisitions, and (vii) enter into
transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and
qualifications. The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default which include
(subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others: nonpayment, breach of
covenants or other agreements in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (as defined in
the Credit Agreement), payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, failure to pay
certain judgments, inability to pay debts as they become due and certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization.
32
If an event of default, including a change in control (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
occurs, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders declare all
outstanding indebtedness including accrued and unpaid interest under the Credit Agreement to be due
and payable.
The Company has entered into interest rate protection agreements to reduce its exposure to the
variable interest rate payments on its term loan. In October 2008, the Company entered into an
interest rate protection agreement with a notional amount of $62.5 million, which expires in
November, 2011. Under the term of the agreement, the Company pays the counter party a fixed rate of
4.1 percent and receives variable interest based on three-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 3.0
percent). In May 2009, the Company entered into two additional interest rate protection agreements
with notional amounts of $50.0 million each, pursuant to which the Company pays a fixed rate of 1.4
percent and receives three month LIBOR.
The counterparties to these agreements are highly rated financial institutions. In the
unlikely event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the interest rate swap agreement,
the Companys exposure is limited to the interest rate differential on the notional amount at each
quarterly settlement period over the life of the agreements. L-1 does not anticipate
non-performance by the counterparties.
Convertible Senior Notes
On May 17, 2007, the Company issued $175.0 million of Convertible Notes with a conversion
feature which allows the Company the option to settle the debt either in shares of common stock or
to settle the principal amount in cash and the conversion spread in cash or stock. The proceeds of
the Convertible Notes offering, net of deferred financing costs amounted to $168.7 million. In
connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, L-1 entered into an agreement with Bear
Stearns (now JP Morgan Chase) to purchase approximately 3.5 million shares of L-1s common stock
for approximately $69.8 million. The shares will be delivered in May 2012; however, L-1 settled its
obligation at closing for a cash payment.
The Notes are governed by an indenture, dated May 17, 2007 (the Indenture), between the
Company and the trustee. The Notes will be convertible only under certain circumstances, as
described below. If, at the time of conversion, the daily volume-weighted average price per share
for a 25 trading day period calculated in accordance with the Indenture (as defined in greater
detail in the Indenture, VWAP) of the Companys common stock is less than or equal to $32.00 per
share, which is referred to as the base conversion price, the Notes will be convertible into 31.25
shares of common stock of the Company per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, subject to
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. If, at the time of conversion, the VWAP of the
shares of common stock of the Company exceeds the base conversion price of $32.00 per share, the
conversion rate will be determined pursuant to a formula resulting in holders receipt of up to an
additional 14 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, subject to
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events and determined as set forth in the Indenture. As
an example, if the volume-weighted price per share (VWAP) of the Company stock were to increase to
$40.00 per share, the additional shares issuable upon conversion would be 2.8, and the shares
issuable per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes would be 34.05.
The Notes are convertible until the close of business on the second business day immediately
preceding May 15, 2027, in multiples of $1,000 in principal amount, at the option of the holder
under the following circumstances: (1) during the five business-day period after any five
consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price per Note, for
each day of such measurement period was less than 98 percent of the product of the last reported
sale price of shares of common stock of the Company and the applicable conversion rate for such
trading day; (2) during any fiscal quarter, if the last reported sale price of shares of common
stock of the Company for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending
on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to
130 percent of the base conversion price on the related trading day; (3) if the Company calls any
or all of the Notes for redemption; and (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions
described in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company has the right to deliver shares of common
stock based upon the applicable conversion rate, or a combination of cash and shares of common
stock, if any, based on a daily conversion value as described above calculated on a proportionate
basis for each trading day of a 25 trading-day observation period. In the event of a fundamental
change as specified in the Indenture, the Company will increase the conversion rate by a number of
additional shares of common stock specified in the Indenture, or, in lieu thereof, the Company may
in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate and related conversion obligation so
that the Notes will become convertible into shares of the acquiring or surviving Company.
33
The Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75 percent per year payable semiannually in arrears in
cash on May 15 and November 15. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2027, unless earlier converted,
redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, on or
after May 20, 2012, subject to prior notice as provided in the Indenture. The redemption price
during that period will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus any
accrued and unpaid interest. The holders may require the Company to repurchase the Notes for cash
on May 15, 2012, May 15, 2017 and May 15, 2020.
Upon consummation of any share exchange, consolidation of merger of L-1 pursuant to which its
common stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property or any sale, lease or other
transfer in one transaction or a series of transactions of all or substantially all of L-1s and
L-1s subsidiaries assets, taken as a whole, to any person other than one of its subsidiaries, the
holders of the Convertible Notes can require the Company to repurchase all outstanding debt at a
purchase price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Cash flows from operating activities decreased by approximately $18.8 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. Net loss for six
months ending June 30, 2010 was $10.2 million and includes non-cash charges of $20.4 million for
depreciation and amortization, $12.2 million for stock-based compensation and retirement
contributions settled or to be settled in common stock, $6.0 million for amortization of deferred
financing costs, debt discount and other, and $2.7 million for non-cash income tax benefit.
Operating cash flows reflect the impact in accruals and deferrals related to operating assets and
liabilities which had an adverse impact on cash flows of $13.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 and a favorable impact on cash flows of $3.0 million in the corresponding period in
the prior year.
Capital expenditures were approximately $25.0 million and $22.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are primarily related to our drivers licenses product
line. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, L-1 acquired certain assets of Retica Systems for
cash of $2.6 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities in 2010 was $17.4 million compared to net cash used in
financing activities of $7.0 million in 2009. L-1 borrowed $42.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 and had no borrowings in the same period of the prior year. L-1 repaid $8.7 million
of the term loan borrowings and $15.6 million for the revolving credit borrowings and other debt in
the first half of 2010 compared to $7.5 million in payments for the term loan in the same period in
the prior year.
Working Capital
Accounts receivable increased by approximately $3.8 million as of June 30, 2010, from December
31, 2009. Days sales outstanding were 67 days at June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009. Accounts
receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $5.5 million and $4.9 million
at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. On both dates the allowance reflects
additions recorded in 2009 for the suspension of the Registered Traveler program of approximately
$1.0 million as well as approximately $2.8 million for estimated unrecoverable amounts related to
enrollment services programs that started in 2009.
Inventory remained flat as of June 30, 2010, compared to December 31, 2009, as increases related to
the acquisition of Retica inventory was offset by shipments in our credentialing and biometrics
businesses. Inventory reflects the levels required to meet expected deliveries of our credentialing
and biometric solutions.
34
Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased by $11.7 million as of
June 30, 2010, compared to December 31, 2009, reflecting, lower accruals for employee compensation
and benefits as a result of the annual settlement of certain compensation related obligations in
the first quarter.
Total deferred revenue decreased by $4.9 million as of June 30, 2010, compared to December 31,
2009, reflecting the impact of higher maintenance renewals in the second half of 2009 compared to
the first half of 2010, as well as a result of recognizing revenue on transactions that met the
revenue recognition criteria during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Included in debt are $175.0 million outstanding under L-1s Convertible Notes which bears interest
at 3.75 percent and $273.4 million term loans of which Tranche B-1 bears interest at 6.75 percent
and Tranche B-2 bears interest at 7.25 percent. The amounts shown above include interest and assume
that the Convertible Notes are redeemed at the end of five years, in 2012. The table also reflects
the repayment of the term loans prior to the redemption of the Convertible Notes.
The Company has consulting agreements with two formerly related parties under which each receives
annual compensation of $0.1 million through the earlier of January 2012 or commencement of full
time employment elsewhere. In addition, the Company is subject to a royalty arrangement with a
related party whereby the Company is subject to royalty payments on certain of its face recognition
software revenue through June 30, 2014, up to a maximum $27.5 million.
In connection with the merger with Identix, Aston Capital Partners, LLC, an affiliated company, and
L-1 have agreed in principle that the Company may, subject to the approval of the Board of
Directors, purchase AFIX Technologies, Inc., a portfolio company of Aston, at fair market value to
be determined by an independent appraiser retained by the Companys Board of Directors. In March
2009, L-1 concluded that due to a variety of factors, it was not advisable to pursue the
transaction to purchase AFIX at that point in time.
CONTINGENT OBLIGATIONS
L-1 has no material contingent obligations at June 30, 2010.
INFLATION
Although some of L-1s expenses increase with general inflation in the economy, inflation has not
had a material impact on L-1s financial results to date.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
L-1 prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. Consistent with U.S. GAAP, L-1
has adopted accounting policies that L-1 believes are most appropriate given the conditions and
circumstances of L-1s business. Some of these policies require management to make assumptions and
estimates. These assumptions and estimates, which are based on historical experience and analyses
of current conditions and circumstances, have a significant impact on L-1s reported results of
operations and assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The
most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the allocation of purchase price of the
acquired businesses, assessing the impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and property and
equipment, revenue recognition, income taxes, contingencies, litigation and
35
valuation of financial instruments, including warrants and stock options. If actual results differ
significantly from the estimates reflected in the financial statements, there could be a material
effect on L-1s consolidated financial statements.
Reference is made to L-1s Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of critical accounting
policies. There have been no material changes to such policies, except as discussed in the Notes to
the Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report of the Form 10-Q related to the adoption
of recently adopted accounting standards.
ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
INTEREST RATE RISK
L-1 is exposed to interest rate risk related to borrowings under L-1s Credit Agreement. At June
30, 2010, borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement aggregated $305.4 million, bearing
interest at variable rates. At June 30, 2010, the market value of the Term Loan was approximately
$273.7 million and the carrying amount was $273.4 million. The Company is exposed to risks
resulting from increases in interest rates and benefits from decreasing interest rates subject to
floors as described in the Credit Agreement. A change in the interest rate of 1 percent would
increase or decrease interest expense by $3.1 million. The Company has partially mitigated this
interest rate risk by entering into interest rate protection agreements with an aggregate notional
amount of $162.5 million pursuant to which it receives variable interest based on three month
LIBOR, subject to a floor of 3.0 percent with respect to $62.5 million notional amount and pays a
fixed interest rate.
L-1s Convertible Notes bear interest at a fixed rate and mature on May 15, 2027, but can be
redeemed by us or called by the holders in May 2012 and are convertible into shares of L-1 common
stock at an initial conversion price of $32.00 (31.25 shares per $1,000 principal amount) in the
following circumstances:
|
|
If during any five consecutive trading day period the trading price is less than 98 percent
of the product of the last reported sales price multiplied by the applicable conversion rate. |
|
|
|
After June 30, 2010, if the sale price of L-1 common stock for twenty or more trading days
exceeds 130 percent of the initial conversion price. |
|
|
|
If the Company calls the Convertible Notes for redemption or upon certain specified
transactions. |
The market value of the Convertible Notes is impacted by changes in interest rates and changes in
the market value of L-1 common stock. At June 30, 2010, the estimated market value of the
Convertible Notes was approximately $163.3 million and the carrying amount was $163.8 million.
For additional information regarding debt and financing instruments see Notes 3 and 5 to our
consolidated financial statements.
FOREIGN CURRENCY EXPOSURES
The transactions of L-1s international operations, primarily our Germany, Canadian and Mexican
subsidiaries, are denominated in Euros, Canadian Dollars, and Mexican Pesos, respectively.
Financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies consist primarily of accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. At June 30, 2010, financial assets and
liabilities denominated in Euros aggregated $1.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and at
June 30, 2009, aggregated $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. At June 30, 2010, financial
assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian Dollars aggregated $2.1 million and $2.4 million,
respectively, and at June 30, 2009, aggregated $2.8 million and $2.3 million, respectively. At
June 30, 2010, financial assets and liabilities denominated in Mexican Pesos were $0.8 million and
$0.4 million, respectively, and at June 30, 2009, aggregated $1.0 million and $0.3 million,
respectively.
Hardware and consumable purchases related to contracts with the U.S. Department of State are
denominated in Japanese Yen and the Companys costs and operations are exposed to changes in the
value of the Yen since the related revenues are fixed in U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2010, these
Japanese Yen denominated liabilities were $2.9 million. At June 30, 2009, there were no Japanese
Yen denominated liabilities. L-1 uses foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges to
limit exposure to Yen denominated liabilities. All gains and losses resulting from the change in
fair
36
value of these foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in operations and offset unrealized
gains and losses related to recorded liabilities. None of the contracts were terminated prior to
settlement. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had committed to one foreign currency forward contract
that mitigate approximately $0.9 million of foreign currency exposures for the liabilities
denominated in Yen. The company had no foreign currency contracts at June 30, 2009. The fair
value of these contracts at June 30, 2010 was an unrealized gain of less than $0.1 million.
L-1 also has entered into a contract to deliver solutions, hardware and maintenance which is
denominated in Saudi Riyals for approximately $22.4 million at June 30, 2010. The Saudi Riyal is
currently pegged to the U.S. Dollar at a rate of 3.75 Riyal for each U.S. Dollar.
L-1s international operations and transactions are subject to risks typical of international
operations, including, but not limited to, differing economic conditions, changes in political
climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions and foreign currency exchange
rate volatility. Accordingly, L-1s future results could be materially impacted by changes in these
or other factors. L-1s principal exposure is related to subsidiaries whose revenues costs and
assets and liabilities denominated in Euros, Japanese Yen, Canadian Dollars and Mexican Pesos. As
of June 30, 2010, the cumulative effect from foreign currency translation adjustments related to
foreign operations was approximately a loss of $0.6 million.
PREPAID FORWARD CONTRACT
L-1 has entered into a pre-paid forward contract with Bear Stearns (now JP Morgan Chase) to
purchase approximately 3.5 million shares of our common stock at a price of $20.00 per share for
delivery in May 2012. However, L-1 settled the obligation with a cash payment at closing. The price
of the common stock at the time of delivery may be higher or lower than $20.00.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) |
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
L-1 has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure that material information relating to L-1 and its subsidiaries required to be disclosed by
us in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules
and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to L-1s management, including
the Companys Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure
control and procedures, management recognizes that any control and procedure, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control
objectives, as L-1 is designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment
in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation under
the supervision and with the participation of L-1s management, including the CEO and CFO, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of L-1s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) was performed as of June 30, 2010. Based on this
evaluation, L-1s CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective
at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2010.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
In the normal course, L-1 reviews and changes internal controls to reflect changes in business
and operations and enhances and modifies controls in response to these changes on an ongoing basis.
There have been no changes in L-1s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, L-1s internal controls over financial reporting.
The certifications of L-1s principal executive officer and principal financial officer
required in accordance with Rule 13a-14(a) and 15-d-14(a) under the Exchange Act are attached as
exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The disclosures set forth in this Item 4 contain
information concerning the evaluation of L-1s disclosure controls and procedures, and changes in
L-1s internal control over financial reporting, referred to in paragraph 4 of those
certifications.
37
The certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 4 for a more complete
understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Old Digimarc Litigation
In connection with the Companys August 2008 acquisition of Old Digimarc, which consisted of
its Secure ID Business following the spin-off of its digital watermarking business, the Company
assumed certain legal proceedings of Old Digimarc as described below.
Beginning in May 2001, a number of substantially identical class action complaints alleging
violations of the federal securities laws were filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York naming approximately 300 companies, including Old Digimarc, certain
officers and directors and certain underwriters of the companies initial public offerings as
defendants. The complaints were subsequently consolidated into a single action, and a consolidated
amended complaint was filed in April 2002. The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that
the underwriters of Old Digimarcs initial public offering violated securities laws by failing to
disclose certain alleged compensation arrangements in Old Digimarcs initial public offering
registration statement and by engaging in manipulative practices to artificially inflate the price
of Old Digimarcs stock in the aftermarket subsequent to the initial public offering. Old Digimarc
and certain of its officers and directors are named in the amended complaint pursuant to Section 11
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 on the basis of an alleged failure to disclose the underwriters alleged compensation
arrangements and manipulative practices. The complaint sought unspecified damages. In July 2002,
the claims against Old Digimarc under Section 10(b) were dismissed. In October 2002, the individual
officer and director defendants were dismissed without prejudice pursuant to tolling agreements. In
June 2004, a stipulation of partial settlement among the plaintiffs, the companies, and the
officers and directors was submitted to the District Court. While the partial settlement was
pending approval, the plaintiffs continued to litigate their claims against the underwriter
defendants. The district court directed that the litigation proceed within a number of focus
cases rather than in all of the 309 cases that have now been consolidated. Old Digimarc was not
one of these focus cases. In October 2004, the district court certified the focus cases as class
actions. The underwriter defendants appealed that ruling and, on December 5, 2006, the Court of
Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the district courts class certification decision for the
six focus cases. In light of the Second Circuit opinion, in June 2007, the district court entered
an order terminating the settlement. On August 14, 2007, the plaintiffs filed their second
consolidated amended class action complaints against the focus cases and on September 27, 2007,
again moved for class certification. On November 12, 2007, certain of the defendants in the focus
cases moved to dismiss the second consolidated amended class action complaints. The court issued an
opinion and order on March 26, 2008, denying the motions to dismiss except as to Section 11 claims
raised by those plaintiffs who sold their securities for a price in excess of the initial offering
price and those who purchased outside the previously certified class period. The class
certification motion was withdrawn without prejudice on October 10, 2008. On April 2, 2009, a
stipulation and agreement of settlement among the plaintiffs, issuer defendants (including Old
Digimarc) and underwriter defendants was submitted to the Court for preliminary approval. Old
Digimarcs portion of the settlement, which is wholly immaterial, is covered entirely by insurance.
On June 10, 2009, the Judge granted preliminary approval of the settlement, and on October 5,
2009, the Judge granted final approval of the settlement. Since that time, however, six groups of
appellants have filed timely notices of appeal. On June 18, 2010, the District Court ordered that
the appellants post an appeal bond of $25,000. Although one of the groups of appellants has
appealed this order, an appeal bond of $25,000 was posted on July 16, 2010. The schedule for filing
appellate briefs has not yet been set by the Second Circuit.
On October 10, 2007, an Old Digimarc stockholder filed a lawsuit in the United States District
Court for the Western District of Washington against several companies that acted as lead
underwriters for the Old Digimarc initial public offering. The complaint, which also named Old
Digimarc as a nominal defendant but did not assert any claims against Old Digimarc, asserted claims
against the underwriters under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On February
28, 2008, an amended complaint was filed, with Old Digimarc still named only as a nominal
defendant. Similar complaints have been filed by this same plaintiff against a number of other
issuers in connection with their initial public offerings, and the factual allegations are closely
related to the allegations in the litigation pending in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York which is described above. On March 12, 2009, after considering
motions to dismiss, one filed by thirty moving issuers and the other filed by the underwriters, the
judge dismissed the plaintiffs claims on a jurisdictional and statute of limitations basis. On
April 10, 2009, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the dismissal. The final appellate brief
was filed on November 17, 2009; the Ninth Circuit has not indicated whether it will schedule oral
arguments. The Company currently believes that the outcome of this litigation will not have a
material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations.
39
On May 12, 2010, the Company was served with a complaint in the U.S. District Court, District of Delaware, alleging patent infringement of US
Patent No. 5,913,542 for a system to produce personal ID cards. On July 6, 2010, the Company filed
an answer to the complaint, which contained counterclaims for a declaratory judgment against the
complainant. Based on the preliminary nature of the proceedings, it is not possible at this stage
to quantify the potential damages, exposure or liability to L-1, if any.
Other
The Company records a liability for any claim, demand, litigation and other contingency when
management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and can reasonably
estimate the amount of the potential loss. Based on current information and belief, the Company
believes it has adequate provisions for any such matters. The Company reviews these provisions
quarterly and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings,
advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.
However, because of the inherent uncertainties of litigation the ultimate outcome of certain
litigation cannot be accurately predicted by the Company; it is therefore possible that the
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company could be
materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more
of these matters and contingencies.
ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains or incorporates a number of forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the industry and markets in which we
operate and managements beliefs and assumptions. Any statements contained herein (including
without limitation statements to the effect that management, we or L-1s management believes,
expects, anticipates, plans and similar expressions) that are not statements of historical
fact should be considered forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with
consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included in this
report. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. There are a number of important
factors that could cause L-1s actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such
forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, those set forth below. The
risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and
uncertainties, including those not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, may
also materially and adversely impact L-1s business. L-1 expressly disclaims any obligation to
update any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
Except as set forth below there have been no material changes from the risk factors described
in L-1s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. L-1 encourages you to
review L-1s Annual Report on Form 10-K for a full description of the risks and uncertainties
relating to our business.
Covenants in the Companys credit facility may restrict financial and operating flexibility and the
Company may not be able to comply with these covenants.
L-1 is a party to a credit agreement with that provides for up to $435.0 million in borrowings
through 2013, of which $95.0 million is currently available, subject to continuing compliance with
debt covenants. Under the agreement, L-1 is required to maintain specific financial covenants
related to leverage and debt service coverages. L-1 amended the Credit Agreement,
increasing the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio from 3.00:1.00 to 3.85:1.00 and reducing the
minimum Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio from 2.25:1.00 to 1.65:1.00 for the measurement
periods ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. If, prior to August 31, 2010, the Company enters
into a definitive agreement to sell all or substantially all of the assets and operations of the
Company, the amended ratios will be extended to December 30, 2010 and includes the September 30,
2010 measurement period. The financial covenants for all other measurement periods remain
unchanged. At June 30, 2010 the Companys Consolidated
Leverage Ratio was 3.21:1.00 and the Consolidated Debt Service
Coverage Ratio was 2.12:1.00; accordingly the Company was in compliance with
the amended covenants. If the Company does not enter into a definitive agreement by August 31, 2010, the Company would be required to comply
with the original financial ratios. The Company may be required to amend its Credit Agreement
pending completion of the ongoing strategic review process to remain in compliance with the covenants. If the sale does not occur, the Company expects to refinance its debt on a long term basis or
40
otherwise take other actions to repay or amend the term loans. There is no assurance that a
refinancing or other actions to repay or modify the loan can be successfully executed.
The credit agreement also places limitations on additional borrowings, mergers and
related-party transactions, on payment of dividends and with respect to capital expenditures.
Borrowings under the agreement are collateralized by Companys assets and bear interest at the
Eurodollar Rate, or the lenders base rate, plus market-rate spreads that are determined by
reference to the Companys leverage ratio.
Default under the credit facility could allow the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding
to be immediately due and payable. L-1 has pledged substantially all of its assets to secure the
debt under the credit facility. If the lenders declare amounts outstanding under the credit
facility to be due, the lenders could proceed against those assets. Any event of default,
therefore, could have a material adverse effect on the business if the creditors determine to
exercise their rights. The Company also may incur future debt obligations that might subject L-1 to
restrictive covenants that could affect financial and operational flexibility, restrict ability to
pay dividends on common stock, or subject L-1 to other events of default.
L-1 has a history of operating losses.
L-1 has a history of operating losses. The business operations began in 1993 and, except for
1996 and 2000, have resulted in losses before income taxes in each year, which have included
significant asset impairments and merger related expenses, amortization of intangible assets and
stock-based compensation expense. At June 30, 2010, L-1 had an accumulated deficit of approximately
$637.7 million. L-1 will continue to invest in the development of secure credential and biometric
technologies, as well as government services and will make significant capital expenditures to meet
the requirements of recently awarded secure credentialing contracts. The need for these
expenditures to grow the business will affect the ability to report operating profit and reduce the
accumulated deficit.
L-1 may be unable to obtain additional capital due to market
conditions and the Company must fund substantial capital expenditures for the secure credentialing
business.
The installation of secure credentialing systems requires significant capital
expenditures. The need to fund such capital expenditures has increased following the acquisition of
the secure credentialing business of Digimarc. Also, historically one of the components of the L-1 strategy is growth through strategic acquisitions.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, capital expenditures increased to $25.0 million, as
compared to $22.3 million in the corresponding period of the prior year. Capital expenditures for
the year ended December 31, 2009 were approximately $55.0 million and are expected to be at a
similar level for the year ending December 31, 2010. While L-1 expects to fund capital requirements
primarily from operating cash flows and borrowings under the revolving credit facility, in the near
term, cash otherwise available to fund strategic opportunities and prepay long-term debt is
reduced. At June 30, 2010, L-1 had cash and cash equivalents of $2.8 million and availability under
its existing credit agreement of $95.0 million subject to continuing compliance with covenants
contained in the agreement. While the Company believes it has adequate resources to meet
current capital requirements, L-1 expects to have increased capital needs as it continues
to expand its business.
The Company
may be unsuccessful in raising additional financing to fund growth or it may have difficulty in
obtaining financing at attractive rates or on terms that are not excessively dilutive to existing
stockholders. Failure to secure additional financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms
could have a material adverse effect on the growth strategy, financial performance and stock price
and could require the Company to delay or abandon expansion.
Government contracts are subject to continued appropriations by Congress and availability of
funding for State and Local programs. Reduced funding or changes in procurement policies that
curtail the use of outside contractors could result in terminated, delayed or de-scoped contracts
with L-1 and adversely affect the ability for L-1 to meet sales and earnings goals.
41
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, U.S. Federal government agencies, directly
or indirectly, accounted for 58 percent and 57 percent, respectively, of L-1s consolidated
revenues. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, U.S. Federal government agencies,
directly or indirectly, accounted for 60 percent and 59 percent, respectively, of L-1s
consolidated revenues. Future sales under existing and future awards of U.S. government contracts
are conditioned upon the continuing availability of Congressional appropriations, which could be
affected by current or future economic conditions. In addition, while spending authorizations for
intelligence and defense-related programs by the Federal government has increased in recent years,
particularly after the 2001 terrorist attacks and more recently in support of U.S. war efforts in
Southwest Asia, future levels of expenditures, mission priorities and authorizations for these
programs may decrease, remain constant or shift to programs in areas where L-1 does not currently
provide services. Current Federal government spending levels for defense-related programs are in
part related to the U.S. military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, and may not be sustainable,
as a result of changes in government leadership, policies or priorities.
Recently the Federal government has indicated a goal of reducing the use of contractors in
certain areas and in-sourcing the related functions. These initiatives may adversely impact the
growth of portions of L-1s government services businesses.
Similar to Federal government contracts, State and Local government agency contracts may be
contingent upon availability of funds provided by Federal, State or Local entities. In the current
economic environment, many States may reduce expenditures which may result in cancellation or
deferral of projects. State and Local law enforcement and other government agencies are subject to
political, budgetary, purchasing and delivery constraints which may result in quarterly and annual
revenue and operating results that may be irregular and difficult to predict. Such revenue
volatility makes management of inventory levels, cash flows and profitability inherently difficult.
In addition, if L-1 is successful in winning such procurements, there may be unevenness in delivery
schedules, as well as potential delays and changes in the timing of deliveries and recognition of
revenue, or cancellation of such procurements.
The L-1 plan to pursue sales in international markets may be limited by risks related to conditions
in such markets.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, L-1 derived approximately 7 percent and 9
percent, respectively, of total revenues from international sales and the Companys strategy is to
expand its international operations. There is a risk that the Company may not be able to
successfully market, sell and deliver solutions, products and services in foreign countries.
Risks inherent in marketing, selling and delivering products in foreign and international
markets, each of which could have a severe negative impact on financial results and stock price,
include those associated with:
|
|
|
regional economic or political conditions; |
|
|
|
|
delays in or absolute prohibitions on exporting solutions, products and services
resulting from export restrictions for certain products and technologies; |
|
|
|
|
loss of, or delays in importing products, services and intellectual property developed
abroad, resulting from unstable or fluctuating social, political or governmental conditions; |
|
|
|
|
fluctuations in foreign currencies related to the U.S. dollar; |
|
|
|
|
loss of revenue, property (including intellectual property) and equipment from
expropriation, nationalization, war, insurrection, terrorism, criminal acts and other
political and social risks; |
|
|
|
|
liabilities resulting from any unauthorized actions of local resellers or agents under
the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or local anti-corruption statutes; |
|
|
|
|
overlap of different tax structures; |
|
|
|
|
risks of increases in taxes and other government fees; |
42
|
|
|
involuntary renegotiations of contracts with foreign governments. |
L-1 expects that it will have increased exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. As of June
30, 2010, accumulated other comprehensive income includes foreign currency translation losses of
approximately $0.6 million.
In addition, L-1 has significant Japanese Yen denominated transactions with Japanese suppliers
of hardware and consumables for the delivery to customers. Fluctuations in foreign currencies,
including the Japanese Yen as well as Canadian Dollar, and the Euro could result in unexpected
fluctuations to results of operations, which could be material and adverse.
L-1s exploration of strategic alternatives may not result in any sale transaction.
In January 2010, L-1 announced that one of its strategic goals and objectives for 2010 was to
explore alternatives to enhance shareholder value. While the Company has received initial indications from multiple parties and expects to continue discussions with interested parties at this time, there can be no assurance that (i) the
exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any sale transaction, (ii) about the timing of such a
sale transaction, (iii) or whether a significant premium to current market trading prices for L-1s
common stock can be obtained as part of any such transaction.
