Annual Report
This section is intended to help the reader understand Kforce, our operations, and our present business environment. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes thereto contained in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report as well as Item 1. Business of this report for an overview of our operations and business environment.
This overview summarizes the MD&A, which includes the following sections:
• Executive Summary - an executive summary of our results of operations for 2012.
• Critical Accounting Estimates - a discussion of the accounting estimates that are most critical to fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and that require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments.
• New Accounting Standards - a discussion of recently issued accounting standards and their potential impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
• Results of Operations - an analysis of Kforce's consolidated results of operations for the three years presented in its Consolidated Financial Statements. In order to assist the reader in understanding our business as a whole, certain metrics are presented for each of our segments.
• Liquidity and Capital Resources - an analysis of cash flows, off-balance sheet arrangements, stock repurchases and contractual obligations and commitments and the impact of changes in interest rates on our business.
On March 31, 2012, Kforce sold all of the issued and outstanding stock of KCR. See Note 2 - "Discontinued Operations" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion. The results presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 include activity relating to KCR as discontinued operations. Except as specifically noted, our discussions below exclude any activity related to KCR, which is addressed separately in the discussion of income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following is an executive summary of what Kforce believes are important 2012 highlights, which should be considered in the context of the additional discussions herein and in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto. We believe such highlights are as follows:
• Net service revenues increased 7.7% to $1.08 billion in 2012 from $1.00 billion in 2011. Net service revenues increased 8.3% for Tech, 8.6% for FA, and 12.1% for HIM while GS decreased 1.1%.
• Flex revenues increased 7.7% to $1.03 billion in 2012 from $961.2 million in 2011.
• Search revenues increased 9.6% to $47.7 million in 2012 from $43.5 million in 2011.
• Flex gross profit margin increased 50 basis points to 29.0% in 2012 from 28.5% in 2011, primarily as a result of an increase in the spread between our bill and pay rates. This increase was partially offset by increases in statutory payroll costs, particularly relating to unemployment taxes. Flex gross profit margins increased 30 basis points for Tech, 120 basis points for FA and 70 basis points for GS and HIM remained flat.
• SG&A as a percentage of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 29.8% compared to 27.3% in 2011. This increase was primarily a result of the acceleration of substantially all of the outstanding and unvested RS, PARS and ALTI awards on March 31, 2012, which resulted in the acceleration of $31.3 million of compensation expense and payroll taxes recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
• Net loss from continuing operations of $35.7 million for 2012 declined $54.8 million from net income from continuing operations of $19.1 million in 2011. The results for 2012 include an after-tax goodwill impairment charge of $44.5 million as well as the previously mentioned acceleration of substantially all of the outstanding and unvested RS, PARS and ALTI awards.
• Loss per share from continuing operations for 2012 was $1.00 compared to earnings per share of $0.49 per share in 2011, which was primarily driven by the acceleration of substantially all of the outstanding and unvested RS, PARS and ALTI awards on March 31, 2012 and the goodwill impairment charge referred to above.
• During 2012, Kforce repurchased 3.4 million shares of common stock at a total cost of approximately $44.4 million.
• The Firm declared and paid a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share in the fourth quarter of 2012 resulting in a payout in cash of $35.2 million.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In connection with the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends, and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, estimates, assumptions and judgments to ensure that our Consolidated Financial Statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Management believes that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued authoritative guidance regarding the presentation of netting assets and liabilities as a single amount in the statement of financial position to address the difference between GAAP and international financial reporting standards ("IFRS"). This guidance is to be applied for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Kforce does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.
