2. Project Approach

Fort Lauderdale-Holywood International Airport (FLL)

Thornton Tomasetti has considerable local and regional design

experience, as both a subconsultant and the prime consultant,

and fully understands each consultant’s role and the coordination

that is necessary. Thornton Tomasetti has the ability to act in a

definitive and leadership role as the prime in collaboration with

Gurrie Matute, our architectural subconsultant.

As structural engineers, Thornton Tomasetti collaborates with

architects, owners and builders to achieve elegant structural

solutions to meet the rigorous demands of the most technically

challenging projects. Our team designs structural systems

for buildings and related structures of all types and sizes, for

new facilities as well as for renovations and conversions. We

integrate programmatic requirements and develop structural

solutions that best achieve multiple objectives: form, function,

schedule, sustainability, constructability and budget. We apply

both traditional and cutting-edge building materials and structural

systems, and consider both indigenous and newly introduced

construction methods.

Our team instinctively approaches projects with a light hand,

striving to minimize impact on the building and disruption to the

occupants. We begin by investigating and learning as much as

possible about the structure, history and maintenance using our

experience and knowledge of similar structures, materials and

characteristics synthesizing this into an informed diagnosis. Our

hands-on approach to assessment and design enables us to

creatively consider various treatment and resolution options.

Based on a design foundation, our team can then build a holistic

approach for the entire project that manages budget, schedule

and occupant impact, as well as building performance and the

quality of the design.

Thornton Tomasetti provides clients with in-depth services

in investigating, evaluating, recommending and developing

remedial procedures for problems in existing buildings.

Our history of providing engineering and design services

has provided our staff with unique insights and a thorough

understanding of investigating problems in existing buildings.

Clients have retained Thornton Tomasetti to evaluate and

rectify a variety of building problems ranging from deteriorating

exterior wall systems, leaking roofs, deteriorated parking decks,

inefficient and costly heating/air-conditioning systems to

reinforcement of distressed structural components. Our survey

and repair work has involved virtually every system contained in

a building, including exterior walls, windows, roofing assemblies,

superstructure and foundations, heating plant, air-conditioning

and ventilation, electrical service, elevator upgrades, plumbing

and fire-protection alterations and utilities.

Structural Evaluation and Rehabilitation

Thornton Tomasetti assists building owners and managers

to maintain, upgrade and evaluate their buildings by offering

complete engineering services including structural alterations,

condition assessments and due diligence surveys, materials

testing and development of repair strategies/programs, life-cycle

analyses, structural investigations, peer reviews and construction

administration services.

Structural Stabilization and Deconstruction

We conduct structural condition assessment and monitoring for

existing structures to prevent damage by future neighboring

construction. For deconstruction services, we calculate

the footprint of the demolition and its debris, and develop

and oversee a demolition plan that is expeditious, safe and

appropriate for the environs.

Building Envelope Evaluation and Remediation Design

Our staff possesses the unique skills and experience to provide

consulting, design, investigation and remediation services for

every type of building façade and roofing project, from new

metal and glass curtain walls to the restoration of vintage

masonry construction.

Building Vulnerability Assessments

Our in-house capabilities allow us to predict and assess the

response of structures, structural elements, masonry, windows

and glazing to loads associated with blast or other threats to

improve the protection level in existing and new facilities.

Feasibility Studies

Feasibility studies at project inception are essential to

determining a building’s constructability. Our compiled data on

similar projects enables us to evaluate feasibility quickly and

effectively before detailed calculations are performed.

Memphis International Airport, Concourse B Modernization Memphis, Tennessee

Thornton Tomasetti is providing structural engineering, façade

engineering and sustainability services for the Concourse B

Modernization Program at Memphis International Airport. This

integrated design approach will provide a more energy efficient

space that will also elevate the flying experience as passengers

move through the newly renovated terminal.

The project scope includes a renovation of the entire concourse

that will replace the existing roof with a wider column-free space.

This will allow for more open pathways so passengers can more

easily reach their destinations. Moving walkways and a new

curtain wall will be added, as well as natural lighting, which will

come from skylights strategically positioned in the raised

ceilings. All three concourses will be consolidated into one,

significantly improving passenger flow. In total, the airport will

have 60 gates at the end of the renovation compared to the 80 it

had before the renovation.

The renovation will also include a seismic upgrade to meet

the requirements for Seismic Design Category D of the 2009

Facade Engineering

Thornton Tomasetti is providing structural, facade and

construction engineering services, as well as sustainability

consulting, for a 50,000-square-foot American Airlines L

Concourse Stinger expansion at O’Hare International Airport. The

five new regional gates in the expansion are accessed from the

existing Terminal 3 building via a 600 foot three-span pedestrian

walkway.

The new Stinger Concourse building and the bridge are

located within a tightly confined site and required coordination

with major existing underground utilities including a 180 foot

long by 80 foot wide underground water reservoir. In order to

avoid impacting the underground water reservoir, a major

portion of

the Stinger building is supported by a combination of story-deep

and long span roof trusses. The pedestrian bridge is designed as

a three-span continuous box truss between isolated foundations.

These systems of trusses minimize the number of foundations to

reduce the occurrence of conflicts with existing utilities.

During the design phase, an extensive potholing and surveying

program was undertaken by the CMR to verify as-built utility

information, which was incorporated into the final design of the

foundation and superstructure.

A modified design to the existing façade will accommodate the

new construction. Through studying substantial differential

movement between the new and existing structures, the

structural and facade teams were able to develop concept

details and construction sequencing suggestions that enabled

continued use of the existing facade in a condition not originally

considered. In addition, evaluation of the imposed loads

informed accurate sizing of the supporting frame.

Thornton Tomasetti also performed a thermal comfort analysis

for the expansive glass in the extension to alleviate thermal

discomfort caused by direct radiation. Strategies such as

shading, fritted glass, electrochromic glass, Phase Change

Materials and radiant cooling were evaluated.

As part of the Owner’s overall Construction Manager-At-Risk

project delivery, Thornton Tomasetti provided integrated

Construction Engineering services, which included structural

steel connection design and a fully detailed Tekla model which

was shared on “the cloud” in real-time with the steel fabricator.

This integrated service reduced the overall construction schedule

by four months and allowed the Owner to realize a short

24-month design and construction schedule.

features.

In order to meet the strict schedule for opening, we issued

complete, fabrication-ready structural steel shop drawings to the

steel fabricator, allowing them to begin fabrication immediately, a

significant schedule advantage

United Club near Gate B6

Thornton Tomasetti provided structural, construction, and façade

engineering services for the B6 Club, which underwent a

complete interior renovation and a 10,000-square-foot addition

to the club. The addition was located in a new mezzanine above

the south security checkpoint, which was originally designed by

Thornton Tomasetti in 2007, in anticipation of this future addition.

Interior renovations included new stairs, escalators, rooftop units

and extensive MEP penetrations through the existing steel roof

beams to maximize architectural ceiling heights in the club.

This mezzanine overlooks the terminal by way of a glass

partition, for which Thornton Tomasetti provided façade

engineering services for the curtain wall. Thornton Tomasetti also

provided full structural steel shop drawings with the structural bid

documents to streamline the fabrication process and meet the

Phone: (954) 829-0599


The airport is sub-divided into three (3) main wastewater collection areas labeled per their

geographical position as Northside, Eastside and Westside. These regions are serviced by a total of

11 lift stations which eventually discharge into a master pump station through a network of gravity

and force main systems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the Airport’s wastewater

collection/transmission system based on current actual loading conditions, theoretical design flows,

and projected flows from the Terminal 4 Expansion. A special emphasis was placed on evaluating

the lift stations and force mains to confirm adequate capacity for future expansion.

To aid in developing a comprehensive understanding of the existing system, Craven Thompson &

Associates, Inc. (CTA) developed a computer model to analyze and identify the pressures and

velocities at various locations within the force main system. This software enabled an examination of

the force main dynamics by closely representing the operating conditions of fluctuating pressures

and velocities due to the cumulative effect of various frequencies of different lift stations running,

which helped identify both the typical and critical conditions within the system.

Schedule Adherence

Schedule control is collaborative. With support of 40 dedicated

local staff and 1200 professionals firmwide, we are committed

to on-time delivery of this project, just as you are. We have an

excellent track record in schedule control, which we maintain by

keeping timing issues at the forefront of the design process,

resolving key issues at the appropriate times, keeping changes

to a minimum, and predicting where changes are likely to occur.

Scheduling can have significant impact both on construction cost

and real estate projections.

When we begin the project, we will establish a clear

understanding of your management philosophy and your stated

project goals. Building on that knowledge, we will develop a

specific project approach that defines each phase of this project

and outlines the most appropriate ways to implement each

phase.

A project management work plan, developed at the start of the

project, includes a list of primary tasks and a detailed schedule

for accomplishing design activities and meeting deadlines. Once

approved, this schedule will become the timeline and road map

for the entire project team.

The detailed schedule established at the beginning of the project

is confirmed and updated at the weekly meetings. We establish

procedures for approving each stage and phase, including the

individuals responsible for sign-off, the method of approval

documentation, and a clear understanding of what each approval

means in terms of the next step on the project. You will receive

executive reports and summaries, giving a project overview.

When the scope of work on a project changes at the client’s

request, the manager documents the change and confers

with the client. Even a minor increase or change in scope

can affect the staff hour budget, and may require additional

or supplemental fees. When a fee increase is necessary, the

client’s written approval must be obtained before any additional

hours are charged to the project or fees are expended.

Strategies to Improve the Schedule

Our experience has taught us that getting involved early is the

key. By doing so, we are better able to understand the project as

it relates to owners’ needs and expectations. The best facilities

and development planning requires a combination of practicality

and creativity. Over half of the jobs that we design at Thornton

Tomasetti are done using this method, and the results speak for

themselves. Identification of long lead items, determination of the

availability of specialty items, development of phasing plans, and

sequencing of critical path activities are essential in the

preconstruction phase.

Permit and Procurement Expediting

Obtaining permits and the development of bid packages,

including workable early bid packages, is critical to expedite

the construction process. Since a Master Permit can take 4-6

months to obtain after filing, we suggest filing for an Early

Foundation Permit to mitigate delays.

• Benefits of Early Foundation Permit:

x Filing allows the issuance of a foundation-only (early

start) permit prior to the approval of the final plan for

the entire project.

x The overall project can advance to 100% Design

Development to 50% Construction Development

Phases.

x The permit process is closer to a 1-2 month duration.

x Advances construction several months earlier than

anticipated as opposed to waiting for the Master

Permit.

• Early Procurement Package:

x If steel framing is selected as the preferred material

for construction, we can offer an early procurement

package and collaborate with the team to prepare

and distribute a Tekla Model for steel detailing

acceleration.

RFP-RFQ-RLI LOCATION ATTESTATION FORM (EVALUATION CRITERIA)

The completed and signed form and supporting information (if applicable, for Joint Ventures) should be returned with the Vendor’s submittal. If not provided with submittal, the Vendor must submit within three business days of County’s request. Failure to timely submit this form and supporting information may affect the Vendor’s evaluation. Provided information is subject to verification by the County.

A Vendor’s principal place of business location (also known as the nerve center) within Broward County is considered in accordance with Evaluation Criteria. The County’s definition of a principal place of business is:

1. As defined by the Broward County Local Preference Ordinance, “Principal place of business

means the nerve center or center of overall direction, control and coordination of the activities of the bidder [Vendor]. If the bidder has only one (1) business location, such business location shall be considered its principal place of business.”

2. A principal place of business refers to the place where a corporation's officers direct, control,

and coordinate the corporation's day-to-day activities. It is the corporation's ‘nerve center’ and in practice it should normally be the place where the corporation maintains its headquarters; provided that the headquarters is the actual center of direction, control, and coordination, i.e., the ‘nerve center’, and not simply an office where the corporation holds its board meetings (for example, attended by directors and officers who have traveled there for the occasion).

The Vendor’s principal place of business in Broward County shall be the Vendor’s “Principal Address” indicated with the Florida Department of State Division of Corporations, for at least six months prior to the solicitation’s due date.

Check one of the following:

X The Vendor certifies that it has a principal place of business location (also known as the nerve

center) within Broward County, as documented in Florida Department of State Division of Corporations (Sunbiz), and attests to the following statements:

1. Vendor’s address listed in its submittal is its principal place of business as defined by Broward

County;

2. Vendor’s “Principal Address” listed with the Florida Department of State Division of Corporations is the same as the address listed in its submittal and the address was listed for at least six months prior to the solicitation’s opening date. A copy of Florida Department of State Division of Corporations (Sunbiz) is attached as verification.

3. Vendor must be located at the listed “nerve center” address (“Principal Address”) for at least six (6) months prior to the solicitation’s opening date;

4. Vendor has not merged with another firm within the last six months that is not headquartered in Broward County and is not a wholly owned subsidiary or a holding company of another firm that is not headquartered in Broward County;

5. If awarded a contract, it is the intent of the Vendor to remain at the referenced address for the

duration of the contract term, including any renewals, extensions or any approved interim contracts for the services provided under this contract; and

6. The Vendor understands that if after contract award, the County learns that the attestation

was erroneous, and upon investigation determines that the error was willful or intentional on

the part of the Vendor, the County may, on that basis exercise any contractual right to terminate the contract. Further any misleading, inaccurate, false information or documentation submitted by any party affiliated with this procurement may lead to suspension and/or debarment from doing business with Broward County as outlined in the Procurement Code, Section 21.119.

If the Vendor is submitting a response as a Joint Venture, the following information is required to be submitted:

a. Name of the Joint Venture Partnership b. Percentage of Equity for all Joint Venture Partners c. A copy of the executed Agreement(s) between the Joint Venture Partners

Vendor does not have a principal place of business location (also known as the nerve center) within

7. Willingness to Meet Time and Budget Requirements (Continued)

Budget Requirements

Thornton Tomasetti is known for cost-cutting structural

innovations and effective management of structurally complex

projects. Cost and constructability concerns are monitored

through our project analysis and quality assurance programs.

Thornton Tomasetti is committed to innovation, efficiency and

economy in design.

For this project, we have assigned a key staff team highly

experienced in renovations and familiar with the needs of clients

to assure the success of this project. The team will start the

project with a condition survey to determine the condition of the

structure and a load analysis to determine if the existing floor

framing can support new loads imposed.

We will work closely with the project team to study and

recommend alternative structural systems that are suited to the

project’s design, budget, and construction objectives. This effort

occurs primarily during the schematic design phase when the

pros and cons of the systems are delineated and their desired

interface with the work of other disciplines is coordinated.

Thornton Tomasetti has a reputation for its technical expertise in

optimizing designs to reduce costs, simplify erection procedures

and speed up construction. We are internationally recognized

for our ability to innovate in order to meet a project’s special

requirements, whether financial or functional.

Design Budget Control System

Thornton Tomasetti uses a Budgetary Control System to monitor

and control all projects in the office. This is a management

information system designed to provide all personnel associated

with the project, as well as management personnel, the past,

present and future man hour information known about the

project. Thornton Tomasetti form sheets are filled out daily and

the specific project costs are aggregated bi-1 for review.

Input Forms

Project Budget Input Form: This form is input at the beginning

of a project. It contains the budget (in hours), the average hourly

rate, and the key staff names by department. It also contains the

direct charges to be budgeted. If changes in scope occur after

the project is initiated, a revised budget form is prepared with

applicable adjustments.

Estimate of Manhours: This form is filled in bimonthly by

project managers. It contains the percentage of work complete,

the estimate of hours expended for the previous four week

period, and the estimate of the required manpower required for

the next four weeks.

Output Reports

Company Project Status: This weekly report of all active

projects is designed to give key personnel (project managers)

primary information pertaining to the status of all projects.

Project Status Reports: A report of each project, containing

information about each department involved in the project and its

percentage completion. It is designed primarily to give Project

Managers information concerning the schedule of their projects.

Project Status by Project Manager: This report of project

information sequenced by Project Managers is designed

primarily for review by Principals and other Management

personnel.

Report of Project Over and Under Budget: This exception

report lists those projects with an index outside of specified limits.

It is primarily an upper management report executed by

principals to control internal budgets.

These controls enable our client, our management and the

project team to be continuously informed of the status of the

project.

Litigation History

From time to time our firm has been brought into lawsuits involving projects on which we have performed services. Most of these cases involve personal injury / site safety issues, which are not our responsibility. Accordingly, we have often had the cases dismissed as against our firm by filing an affidavit of noninvolvement or by speaking with the plaintiff’s attorney. In other instances, we decided to contribute towards settlement to avoid litigation costs, expending the time of our key staff, or the risk of an adverse court decision. On rare occasions, and only after patient accommodation of our client, the firm has found it necessary to file claims to secure payment of long-overdue professional fees.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors Thornton Tomasetti, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. (a New York State Corporation) and subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Opinion As more fully described in Note 18 to the financial statements, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible to determine, and consequently, has not determined and recorded, a liability for certain postretirement benefits (OPEB Accrual) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effects of this departure on the consolidated financial statements are not reasonably determinable.

Qualified Opinion In our opinion, except for the effects of the lack of OPEB accrual as described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. (the “Company”), its wholly owned subsidiaries, Weidlinger Associates, Inc. (WAI), Thornton Tomasetti Ltd. (“TT Ltd.”), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“TTCSCL”), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“TTCBCL”), its ninety nine percent owned subsidiary Thornton Tomasetti Brasil Engenharia (Brazil), Ltda. (“TTBEL”), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (India), Ltd. (“TTIN”), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Vietnam), Ltd. (“TTVN”), Thornton Tomasetti Defence Ltd. (“TTDL”) formerly known as Weidlinger Associates, Ltd and Thornton Tomasetti Canada, Inc. (“TTCA”), are engineering and architectural design firms servicing clients throughout the United States and several foreign countries. The Company has offices in New York, Illinois, Texas, New Jersey, California, Florida, Washington DC, Pennsylvania, Maine, Colorado, Missouri, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Mexico, Washington, Hong Kong, China, Russia, United Arab Emirates, India, Canada, Vietnam, New Zealand, United Kingdom and Brazil.

The operations of TT Ltd., TTCSCL, TTCBCL, TTBEL, TTIN, TTVN, TTDL and TTCA began in November 2006, February 2007, December 2011, September 2012, January 2015, January 2015, September 9, 2015, and February 2016, respectively.

On September 9, 2015, WAI and its 85% ownership subsidiary, Weidlinger Associates, Ltd. merged into TT (see Note 2). On December 30, 2015, TT purchased the remaining 15% ownership from the noncontrolling interest party (see Note 15).

As more fully described in Note 3, on April 15, 2016 the Company acquired a preferred equity interest in newly formed entity TTWiiN, LLC (“TTWiiN”), which develops and operates technology related businesses. The Company has assessed TTWiiN to be a variable interest entity of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Consequently the operations of TTWiiN are included in these consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue and Cost of Revenues

Engineering and architectural design revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of technical salary costs incurred to date to estimated total technical salary costs for each contract. Claims by the Company for additional work relating to contracts are recognized as income when claims are approved. Revenues from time-basis contracts are recognized as costs are incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

Direct project costs include labor and other costs related to contract performance. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance and estimated profitability may result in material revisions to costs and revenue in the next year.

The liability “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts” represents amounts billed in excess of contract revenues recognized.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The Company has certain contracts which are subjected to audit by various government agencies. In the opinion of management, any adjustments resulting from these audits will not have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

In accordance with normal industry practice, the Company includes in current assets and current liabilities amounts relating to contracts realizable and payable over a period in excess of one year. The length of the Company’s contracts vary and are typically under one year, however some contracts may extend up to a longer period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents are highly liquid short-term investments which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities within three months or less from their date of purchase.

Contracts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Contracts receivable are based on amounts billed to customers. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for all receivables not expected to be collected. The Company generally does not require collateral. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In circumstances when the Company is aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due. For all other instances, the Company recognizes reserves based on historical experience and review of the individual accounts.

Depreciation and Amortization

Property and equipment, including assets acquired under capital leases, are recorded at cost and depreciated using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as described in Note 7. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease using the straight-line method. Expenses for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred and renewals or betterments are capitalized.

Goodwill

The Company made an accounting policy election to apply the accounting alternative for goodwill. Goodwill relating to the business combination in 2015 shall be amortized on a straight line basis over 10 years. Goodwill will be tested for impairment when a triggering event occurs that indicates the fair value may be below its carrying amount.

Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of customer lists, business expertise, name recognition and other proprietary rights are amortized over their estimated useful lives of fifteen years; intellectual property is amortized over its estimated useful life of five years; software was amortized over its estimated useful life of eight years; tradename is amortized over its estimated useful life of two years and the grandfathered professional engineering corp. has an indefinite life and is not placed in services as it is held for sale.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between amounts recorded for financial statement and tax purposes.

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standard Codification, (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes, which provides standards for establishing and classifying any tax provisions for uncertain tax positions and recognizing any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation

The functional currencies of the Company's foreign subsidiaries in United Kingdom, China, Brazil, India, Vietnam and Canada are operated in the local currencies. The financial statements of these foreign subsidiaries have been translated to the U.S. dollar. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income statement amounts have been translated using the average exchange rates for the year. Accumulated net translation adjustments have been reported separately in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of the Company's foreign locations in Hong Kong, Russia, Dubai, New Zealand, and Abu Dhabi are prepared using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. As a result, the transactions of those operations that are denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into U.S. dollars, and any resulting gains or losses are included in earnings.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is stated at cost.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Reclassification

Certain 2015 amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

2. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On September 9, 2015, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of Weidlinger Associates Inc. by issuing 49,914 shares of TT treasury stock valued at $16,022,394.

Weidlinger Associates Inc. is a consulting, engineering and technology firm. It provides applied mechanics consulting and structural engineering services primarily through contracts with commercial clients and governmental agencies, which includes the design and rehabilitation of buildings, bridges and infrastructure. It also provides specialized services in vulnerability assessment, risk analysis and blast engineering. It provides its services to customers throughout the United States and the European Union.

2. BUSINESS COMBINATION (continued)

The purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired as follows:

Cash $ 4,555,269 Accounts receivable (a) 22,802,973 Prepaid expenses 1,258,610 Other assets 1,280,990 Property and equipment 4,113,203 Goodwill 6,367,527 Other intangible assets 2,745,984 Current liabilities (b) (20,144,031)Long-term liabilities (c) (6,390,294) Noncontrolling interest (567,837) Total purchase price $ 16,022,394

(a) Includes $2,993,930 unbilled. (b) Includes $465,673 payable to the former stockholders, $1,520,421 distribution payable to the

stockholders, and $1,676,691 billed not earned. (c) Includes $1,045,326 payable to the former stockholders.

The Company paid $6,367,527 for the excess of the identified WAI assets over the liabilities assumed because of the expected added value from WAI’s reputation in the industry, existing customer relationships, a skilled workforce in place and synergies expected to come from having a subsidiary that operates in a related but different line than the Company’s pre-existing operations.

The transaction was not treated as an asset purchase for United States income tax purposes. Goodwill recognized in the transaction is not deductible or amortizable for income tax purposes.

When the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 were issued, the Company had not yet determined the income tax status of certain acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The final determination of this information resulted in the recording of an additional $874,847 of deferred tax liabilities along with an equal amount of additional goodwill. Pursuant to the Company’s adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update Number 2015-16 Business Combinations (Topic 805) these amounts were recorded in 2016.

3. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY – TTWiiN, LLC

As stated in Note 1, in April 15, 2016 the Company, along with several of its shareholders who collectively owned a majority of the Company’s shares, formed TTWiiN whose purpose is to operate a business to develop and market certain technologies based on proprietary software that had been owned by the Company. The Company contributed proprietary software with a carrying value of $911,362 in exchange for Series A Preferred Units in TTWiiN. The Company shareholders paid $237,252 for the Common Units. Because the transfer of the proprietary software was between entities under common control, there was no adjustment of the carrying value to fair value.

3. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY – TTWiiN, LLC (continued)

Under the terms of TTWiiN’s LLC Agreement, the Company was given credit for a capital contribution of $1,825,000 and as the Series A Preferred Unit holder is entitled to all distributions until it has received the $1,825,000 deemed contribution plus a 3% per annum compounded preferred return. After that the Series A Preferred Units receive 5% of all distributions and the Common Units receive 95%.

Aside from the initial cash contribution by the Common Unit holders, the operations of TTWiiN have been funded by loans from the Company. Because TTWiiN could not fund its activities without subordinated financial support from the Company in the form of Preferred Units and loans substantially in excess of common equity from the Company and will continue to need further loans at least into 2017, management has judged TTWiiN to be what GAAP refers to as a variable interest entity. TTWiiN is governed by a Board of Managers on which the Company appoints one member. The other members of the Board of Managers elected by the Common Unit holders, who are all also Company shareholders. Although no one party is able to direct the activities that most significantly affect TTWiiN’s performance, as a group, the Common Unit holders and the Company do hold such power, and in this related party group the Company is the most closely associated with TTWiiN because of TTWiiN’s dependence on the Company for financing along with the Company having as much representation on the Board of Managers as any other party. As a result, the Company is judged to be the primary beneficiary of TTWiiN and GAAP requires that the Company’s financial statements include TTWiiN as a consolidated subsidiary.

The loans made by the Company to TTWiiN mature on October 31, 2018 and will accrue interest at the prime rate plus 2%. The loan balance, including accrued interest at December 31, 2016 was $1,825,533 but is eliminated in consolidation in these financial statements. The Company believes that TTWiiN’s business has significant potential and expects to continue funding its development. The Company’s creditors have no direct access to the assets of TTWiiN, only an indirect access through the Company’s ownership of the Series A Preferred Units and the loans receivable. TTWiiN assets, including TTWiiN’s cash, are consequently included in the consolidated balance sheets as separate non-current assets. Likewise, the creditors of TTWiiN have no access to the general credit of the Company and TTWiiN’s liabilities are depicted as a single line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

TTWiiN’s total loss for the year-ended December 31, 2016 was $1,673,417, of which $237,252 (Note 15) is allocable to the non-controlling interest and $1,436,165 to the Company.

12. INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company changed its accounting method for tax filing purposes from the accrual method to the cash receipts and disbursements method. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has a federal net operating loss of approximately $6,843,000 which is available as a carryforward to offset future taxable income, expiring in 2034 through 2036. The Company also had charitable contributions carryforwards totaling approximately $1,291,000 expiring 2017 through 2021, foreign tax credit carryforwards totaling approximately $1,427,000, research and development tax credits totaling approximately $2,766,000 and alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards totaling approximately $453,000. The Company has various state net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income which expire 2034 to 2036.

In 2016, the effective tax rate is negative because the benefits of research and development credits and changes in the estimates of effective state tax rates and allocation factors exceed the effects of expenses not deductible for income tax purposes. In 2015, the effective tax rate is higher than what would be obtained by application of the statutory rates to income before income tax primarily due to a change in the 2014 estimate as to how foreign tax credits generated in 2014 would be utilized.

The estimate of deferred tax assets at December 31, 2014 was based on the assumption that approximately $1,733,000 of foreign tax credits would be used in the future to reduce income tax expense dollar for dollar. Instead the foreign taxes were taken as a deduction on the Company’s tax return which resulted in a certain immediate cash benefit at the Company’s federal income tax rate rather than a probable but uncertain full benefit several years in the future. This change in estimate resulted in additional income tax expense of $1,127,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015. The effective rate in 2015 also exceeded the statutory rates because of certain expenses being non-deductible for income tax purposes.

12. INCOME TAXES (continued)

The provision for income taxes (benefit) and deferred income taxes consist of the following components:

In 2016 and 2015, deferred taxes result from the recognition of temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax reporting for bad debts, depreciation, charitable contributions, unrealized foreign currency transactions, deferred rent, foreign tax credits, research and development tax credits, net operating loss carry forwards, and cash to accrual adjustments.

13. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In 2016 and 2015, the Company issued 33,311 and 79,530 shares of treasury stock for $11,292,429 and $25,500,492, respectively, and purchased 23,469 and 18,892 shares of treasury stock for $7,955,991 and $5,979,192.

14. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

Foreign currency net gain (loss) of $2,546 and $(742,320) for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, resulted from the transactions of those operations in foreign locations that were denominated in foreign currencies and were remeasured into U.S. dollars. The loss on foreign currency transactions was presented on the consolidated statements of income and retained earnings.

15. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

On December 30, 2015, the Company purchased the remaining 15% noncontrolling interest in Weidlinger Associates Ltd. from the noncontrolling interest party by issuing 1,200 shares of treasury stock for a total purchase price of $385,200. The net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest, for the period September 9, 2015 through December 30, 2015, is included on the income statement net of income taxes.

As discussed in Note 3 on April 15, 2016 the Company acquired a preferred equity investment in TTWiiN. Concurrently, investors, all of whom were shareholders and directors of the Company, acquired the common equity interest in TTWiiN for capital contributions netting $237,252. In consolidating TTWiiN the common equity interest recorded as a noncontrolling interest. The noncontrolling interest was allocated the first $237,252 of TTWiiN’s loss reducing the noncontrolling interest to zero at December 31, 2016.

16. RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company has a profit sharing plan and a cash or deferred arrangement ("CODA") qualified under IRS section 401(k) covering all eligible salaried employees. The Company has the option to make a profit sharing contribution each year based on maximum compensation to eligible employees. No contributions were made for the 2016 and 2015 plan years. Individuals who have attained the age of twenty-one and who have completed 1,000 hours of service during a twelve month period become eligible to participate in the CODA plan. Under this plan, for each dollar contributed by the individual, the Company will match the individual contribution with fifty cents up to a maximum of 3.5% of their annual compensation. TT Ltd. has a defined contribution profit sharing plan which provides for a matching contribution between 1% - 5% of an employee’s basic salary. The total combined expense under the Company’s CODA plan and the TT Ltd.’s profit sharing plan was $3,371,830 and $2,656,369 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company subleased part of office spaces to non-affiliated lessees through February 2021, which generated rental income in the amount of $1,383,312 and $1,091,864, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Sales - Leaseback

In January 2012, the Company entered into an equipment sale-leaseback agreement in the amount of $858,840. The lease term is thirty-six months with monthly payments of $25,003, including monthly interest at 3.25%. The last payment was made in February of 2015. In September 2013, the Company entered into two additional equipment sale-leaseback agreements in the amount of $2,110,502. The leases each have thirty-six month terms with total monthly payments of $61,739, including interest at 3.40%. The last payment was made in September 2016. The depreciation of leased equipment is included in depreciation expense.

18. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Company was obligated under the prior stockholders’ agreement to provide certain former and current employees/shareholders and their dependents with postretirement medical benefits equivalent to those benefits received by active employees of the Company. The stockholders’ agreement was recently revised and does not include these benefits; however those that were previously granted these benefits will continue to be entitled to them and through a separate agreement new managing principals will also receive these benefits as well.

Generally accepted accounting principles require the Company to recognize as a liability an obligation to provide benefits that are attributed to service by the employee/shareholders provided to the Company through the balance sheet date. In management’s opinion, it is not practicable to reasonably estimate such a liability; accordingly no liability for this future benefit has been included in these financial statements. Management’s opinion is based partially on the uncertainties inherent in all postemployment health plans which include, among other matters; 1) the beginning date of each participant’s benefit is unknown, 2) the duration of each participant’s benefit is unknown and 3) the cost of future health plans is unknown. In the Company’s situation, the difficulty in making a reasonable estimate is compounded by the fact that the participants are not entitled to fixed benefits but rather are only entitled to those benefits that the Company grants to active employees.

The extent and nature of those future benefits are unknown because, among other reasons, 1) the Company offerings have changed over time and will likely continue to change over time and could be eliminated, 2) the full effect of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is still uncertain and other changes may be enacted in the future, 3) changes to Medicare could occur and 4) the Company could adopt new insurance vehicles such as health saving accounts.

The Company’s policy is to recognize the expense when the obligations for specific health or insurance services are rendered to the recipient. Amounts due are paid from general Company funds. No amounts are specifically set aside or accumulated for the payment of future benefits. The Company recorded an expense for retiree health benefits of $483,322 and $194,625 in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These amounts are included in medical insurance in general and administration expenses on the income statement. The effect on the financial statements of not recording a liability for the obligation for future health benefits for employee/shareholders has not been determined.

19. CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

The Company is involved in litigations in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that the Company is adequately insured in these additional matters and the resolution of any such litigation will not have a material effect on either operations or the financial position of the Company.

The Company is the guarantor of bank loans to various Shareholders. The loans totaled $7,995,726 and $5,405,032 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Shareholders’ stock in the Company collateralizes their bank loans and the Company’s guarantee. As of April 27, 2017, the outstanding balance was $7,522,553

20. PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENT

Retained earnings at the beginning of 2015 have been adjusted to correct an error in the total of deferred tax assets as of the end of 2013. During 2016 the Company determined that foreign tax credits totaling $1,039,430 to which it believed it was entitled were not valid because the same foreign taxes that gave rise to the credits had been deducted on the Company’s 2013 corporate income tax return. Retained earnings as of the beginning of 2014, originally reported as $20,932,442, have been restated to $19,893,012. Total equity at that date, originally reported as $24,891,396, has been restated to $23,851,966.

The following sets forth the previously reported and restated amounts of selected items within the balance sheet as of December 31, 2015:

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated, for potential recognition and disclosure, events subsequent to the date of the consolidated balance sheet through April 27, 2017 the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

On January 6, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding share capital of Swallow Acoustic Consultants Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Canada (“SACL”), pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement dated December 15, 2016. The total purchase price of the acquisition is approximately $700,000, which consists of 500 shares of common stock of the Company (valued at $169,500), $377,500 in cash and two interest-free promissory notes in the amount of $76,500 each, due from the Company one year and two years from the closing date.

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Continued)

SACL is a specialist in acoustics, noise and vibration control engineering based in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The addition of Swallow will bolster the Company’s structural engineering and forensics practices as well as its Canadian presence. The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination. Due to the close proximity of the acquisition date and the Company’s issuance of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, the initial determination of the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for each major class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not been performed. Such information will be included in the Company’s 2017 financial statements.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Board of Directors Thornton Tomasetti, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

As more fully described in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible to determine and, consequently, has not determined and recorded a liability for certain postretirement benefits ("OPEB Accrual") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effects of this departure on the consolidated financial statements are not reasonably determinable.


BidSync6/19/2018 p. 100

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion, except for the effects on the lack of OPEB Accrual as described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Prior Period Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements of Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016, were audited by other auditors whose opinion dated April 27, 2017, on those statements was qualified because of the departure from generally accepted accounting principles described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph.

Note 1 - Nature of operations

Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. ("TT" or the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Thornton Tomasetti Ltd. ("TT Ltd.") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Thornton Tomasetti A/S (Denmark) ("TTDM"), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("TTCSCL"), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Beijing) Co., Ltd. ("TTCBCL"), Thornton Tomasetti Brasil Engenharia (Brazil), Ltda. ("TTBEL"), its 99% owned subsidiary Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (India), Ltd. ("TTIN"), Thornton Tomasetti Consulting (Vietnam), Ltd. ("TTVN"), Thornton Tomasetti Defence Ltd. ("TTDL"), Ltd., Thornton Tomasetti Canada, Inc. ("TTCA") and its wholly owned subsidiary Swallow Acoustic Consultants Ltd. ("SACL"), and The Thornton Tomasetti Group Limited (Hong Kong) ("TTGL"), are engineering and architectural design firms servicing clients throughout the United States and several foreign countries. The Company has offices in New York, Illinois, Texas, New Jersey, California, Florida, Washington DC, Pennsylvania, Maine, Colorado, Missouri, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Mexico, Washington, Arizona, Ohio, China, Russia, United Arab Emirates, India, Canada, Vietnam, New Zealand, United Kingdom and Brazil.

The operations of TT Ltd., TTCSCL, TTCBCL, TTBEL, TTIN, TTVN, TTDL, TTCA, SACL, TTDM and TTGL began in November 2006, February 2007, December 2011, September 2012, November 2015, January 2015, September 9, 2015, February 2016, January 6, 2017, August 2017 and May 2002, respectively.

As more fully described in Note 4, on April 15, 2016 the Company acquired a preferred equity interest in a newly formed entity TTWiiN, LLC ("TTWiiN"), which develops and operates technology related businesses. The Company has assessed TTWiiN to be a variable interest entity of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Consequently, the operations of TTWiiN are included in these consolidated financial statements.

As more fully described in Note 3, on January 6, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding share capital of Swallow Acoustic Consultants Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Canada, pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement dated December 15, 2016.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies

Principles of consolidation All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating cycle The length of the Company's contracts varies, and are typically under one year; however, some contracts may extend up to a longer period. Assets and liabilities relating to long-term contracts are included in current assets and current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as they will be liquidated in the normal course of contract completion.

Revenues and cost of revenues Engineering and architectural design revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of technical salary costs incurred to date to estimated total


BidSync6/19/2018 p. 109



12

technical salary costs for each contract. Claims by the Company for additional work relating to contracts are recognized as income when claims are approved. Revenues from time-basis contracts are recognized as costs are incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

Direct project costs include labor and other costs related to contract performance. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance and estimated profitability may result in material revisions to costs and revenue in the next year.

The asset "Costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts" represents costs incurred in excess of billings and contract revenues recognized. The liability "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts" represents amounts billed in excess of contract revenues recognized. In accordance with normal industry practice, the Company includes in current assets and current liabilities amounts relating to contracts realizable and payable over a period in excess of one year.

The Company has certain contracts which are subjected to audit by various government agencies. In the opinion of management, any adjustments resulting from these audits will not have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

Contracts receivable Contracts receivable are based on amounts billed to customers. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for all receivables not expected to be collected. The Company generally does not require collateral. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In circumstances when the Company is aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due. For all other instances, the Company recognizes reserves based on historical experience and review of the individual accounts.

Equipment and improvements Equipment and improvements, including assets acquired under capital leases, are recorded at cost and depreciated using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as described in Note 7. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease using the straight-line method. Expenses for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred and renewals or betterments are capitalized.

Goodwill The Company made an accounting policy election to apply the accounting alternative for goodwill. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. Goodwill will be tested for impairment when a triggering event occurs that indicates the fair value may be below its carrying amount.

Intangible assets The Company's intangible assets consist of customer lists, business expertise, name recognition and other proprietary rights that are amortized over their estimated useful lives of fifteen years; intellectual property is amortized over its estimated useful life of five years; tradename was


BidSync6/19/2018 p. 110



13

amortized over its estimated useful life of two years; and the grandfathered professional engineering corporation which had an indefinite life and was sold during 2017.

Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In performing a review for impairment, the Company compares the carrying value of the assets with their estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If it is determined that an impairment has occurred, the loss would be recognized during that period. The impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the asset carrying values and the present value of estimated net cash flows or comparable market values, giving consideration to recent operating performance and pricing trends. As a result of its review, the Company does not believe that any material impairment currently exists related to its long-lived assets.

Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, contracts receivable and payables approximate fair value at December 31, 2017 and 2016 due to the short maturity of these instruments. Based on the interest rates available to the Company, the carrying values of the line of credit borrowings and long-term debt are a reasonable estimation of fair value.

Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires deferred tax assets and liabilities be computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company's U.S. Federal and state income tax returns prior to 2014 are closed and management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings.

If necessary, the Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with tax matters as part of the income tax provision and includes accrued interest and penalties with the related tax liability in the consolidated balance sheets.

Foreign currency transaction and translation The functional currencies of the Company's foreign subsidiaries in United Kingdom, China, Brazil, India, Vietnam, New Zealand and Canada are operated in the local currencies. The financial statements of these foreign subsidiaries have been translated to the U.S. dollar. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income statement amounts have been translated using the average exchange rates for the year. Accumulated net translation adjustments have been reported separately in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of the Company's foreign locations in China (Hong Kong), Russia, New Zealand, and United Arab Emirates are prepared using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. As a result, the transactions of those


BidSync6/19/2018 p. 111



14

operations that are denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into U.S. dollars, and any resulting gains or losses are included in earnings.

Treasury stock Treasury stock is stated at cost.

Reclassifications Amounts related to variable interest entity (see Note 4) in the 2016 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2017 presentation.

Note 3 - Business combination

On January 6, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding share capital of Swallow Acoustic Consultants Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Canada, pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement dated December 15, 2016.

Note 4 - Variable interest entity - TTWiiN, LLC

As stated in Note 1, on April 15, 2016 the Company, along with several of its stockholders who collectively owned a majority of the Company's shares, formed TTWiiN whose purpose is to operate a business to develop and market certain technologies based on proprietary software that had been owned by the Company. The Company contributed proprietary software with a carrying value of $911,362 in exchange for Series A Preferred Units in TTWiiN. The Company stockholders paid $237,252 for the Common Units. Because the transfer of the proprietary software was between entities under common control, there was no adjustment of the carrying value to fair value.

Under the terms of TTWiiN's LLC Agreement, the Company was given credit for a capital contribution of $1,825,000 and as the Series A Preferred Unit holder is entitled to all distributions until it has received the $1,825,000 deemed contribution plus a 3% per annum compounded preferred return. Thereafter, the Series A Preferred Units receive 5% of all distributions and the Common Units receive 95%.

Management has judged TTWiiN to be what GAAP refers to as a variable interest entity. TTWiiN is governed by a Board of Managers on which the Company appoints one member. The other members of the Board of Managers elected by the Common Unit holders, who are all also Company shareholders. Although no one party is able to direct the activities that most significantly affect TTWiiN's performance, as a group, the Common Unit holders and the Company do hold such power, and in this related party group the Company is the most closely associated with TTWiiN because of TTWiiN's dependence on the Company for financing along with the Company having as much representation on the Board of Managers as any other party. As a result, the Company is judged to be the primary beneficiary of TTWiiN and GAAP requires that the Company's consolidated financial statements include TTWiiN as a consolidated subsidiary.

The loans made by the Company to TTWiiN mature on October 31, 2018 and will accrue interest at the prime rate plus 2%. The loan balance, including accrued interest at December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $7,833,402 and $1,825,533, respectively, but is eliminated in consolidation in these consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that TTWiiN's business has significant potential and expects to continue funding its development. The Company's creditors have no direct access to the assets of TTWiiN, only an indirect access through the Company's ownership of the Series A Preferred Units and the loans receivable.

TTWiiN's net loss for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $5,557,194 and $1,673,417 of which $-0- and $237,252 (see Note 15) is allocable to the noncontrolling interest and $5,557,194 and $1,436,165 to the Company, respectively.

The following tables summarize the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of TTWiiN included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2017 and 2016:

Note 10 - Lines of credit

In November 2015, the Company established an accounts receivable revolving credit agreement with two banks collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. The maximum amount available of $40,000,000, which includes a $5,000,000 letter of credit sub facility, is based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable.

The revolving credit agreement requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants. At December 31, 2017, outstanding letters of credit amount to approximately $2,545,000 and there were no borrowings against the line of credit. As of April 26, 2018, $17,500,000 was borrowed by the Company.

Note 12 - Retirement plans

401(k)/profit-sharing plan The Company has a profit sharing plan and a cash or deferred arrangement ("CODA") qualified under IRS Section 401(k) covering all eligible salaried employees. The Company has the option to make a profit sharing contribution each year based on maximum compensation to eligible employees. No contributions were made for the 2017 and 2016 plan years. Individuals who have attained the age of 21 becomes eligible to participate in the CODA plan. Under this plan, for each dollar contributed by the individual, the Company will match the individual contribution with fifty cents up to a maximum of 3.5% of their annual compensation. TT Ltd., TT, TTDL, TTCA and SACL have a defined contribution profit sharing plan which provides for a matching contribution between 1% - 5% of an employee's base salary. The total combined expense under the Company's CODA plan and the profit sharing plan was $3,663,708 and $3,371,830 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Postretirement benefits The Company was obligated under the prior stockholders' agreement to provide certain former and current employees/shareholders and their dependents with postretirement medical benefits equivalent to those benefits received by active employees of the Company. The stockholders' agreement was revised and does not include these benefits; however, those that were previously granted these benefits will continue to be entitled to them.

GAAP requires the Company to recognize as a liability an obligation to provide benefits that are attributed to service by the employee/shareholders provided to the Company through the balance sheet date. In management's opinion, it is not practicable to reasonably estimate such a liability; accordingly, no liability for this future benefit has been included in these consolidated financial statements. Management’s opinion is based partially on the uncertainties inherent in all postemployment health plans which include, among other matters; 1) the beginning date of each participant’s benefit is unknown, 2) the duration of each participant’s benefit is unknown and 3) the cost of future health plans is unknown. In the Company’s situation, the difficulty in making a reasonable estimate is compounded by the fact that the participants are not entitled to fixed benefits but rather are only entitled to those benefits that the Company grants to active employees.

The extent and nature of those future benefits are unknown because, among other reasons, 1) the Company offerings have changed over time and will likely continue to change over time and could be eliminated, 2) the full effect of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is still uncertain and other changes may be enacted in the future, 3) changes to Medicare could occur and 4) the Company could adopt new insurance vehicles such as health saving accounts.

The Company's policy is to recognize the expense when the obligations for specific health or insurance services are rendered to the recipient. Amounts due are paid from general Company funds. No amounts are specifically set aside or accumulated for the payment of future benefits. The Company recorded an expense for retiree health benefits of $556,588 and $483,322 in the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These amounts are included in medical insurance in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of income. The effect on the consolidated financial statements of not recording a liability for the obligation for future health benefits for employee/shareholders has not been determined.

Note 13 - Income taxes

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company changed its accounting method for tax filing purposes from the accrual method to the cash receipts and disbursements method. The Company also had charitable contributions carryforwards totaling approximately $1,410,000 expiring in 2018 through 2021, foreign tax credit carryforwards totaling approximately $1,862,000, and research and development tax credits totaling approximately $3,282,000. The Company has various state net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income which expire 2034 through 2036.

In 2017, the amount of tax benefit differs from the amount of benefit that would result from applying the statutory rates to pre-tax income (loss) primarily due to temporary differences between the basis of accounting used in filing the Company's tax return (cash basis method) and the basis of accounting used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements (accrual method) and certain nondeductible expenses and research and development credits. In 2016, the effective tax rate is negative because the benefits of research and development credits and changes in the estimates of effective state tax rates and allocation factors exceed the effects of expenses not deductible for income tax purposes.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act") was signed and became effective. The Tax Act, among other things, lowered the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 34% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The impact of the change in the rate amounted to an approximate net reduction of $2,986,000 in deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017.

The Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2017 and 2016 consist of the following:

2017 2016

Deferred tax assets 27,204,466$ 36,918,852$ Deferred tax asset valuation allowance (1,861,707) - Deferred tax liabilities (27,615,816) (43,912,354)

Deferred tax liabilities, net (2,273,057)$ (6,993,502)$

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset increased by $1,861,707, which is related to foreign tax credit carryforwards. The increase was the result of determining that it is more likely than not that foreign tax credit carryforwards will not be utilized prior to expiration.

The components of the benefit for income taxes for years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

2017 2016Current

Federal 306,000$ 6,164$ State and local 355,984 112,403 Foreign 890,914 1,151,570

(4,725,273) (1,688,246)

(3,172,375)$ (418,109)$

In 2017 and 2016, deferred taxes result from the recognition of temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax reporting for bad debts, depreciation, charitable contributions, unrealized foreign currency transactions, deferred rent, foreign tax credits, research and development tax credits, net operating loss carryforwards, and cash to accrual adjustments.

Note 14 - Stockholders' equity

In 2017 and 2016, the Company issued 20,367 and 31,311 shares of treasury stock for $6,962,514 and $11,292,429, respectively, and purchased 13,519 and 23,464 shares of treasury stock for $4,623,498 and $7,955,991, respectively.

Note 15 - Noncontrolling interest

As discussed in Note 4, on April 15, 2016 the Company acquired a preferred equity investment in TTWiiN. Concurrently, investors, all of whom were stockholders and directors of the Company, acquired the common equity interest in TTWiiN for capital contributions netting $237,252. In consolidating TTWiiN the common equity interest was recorded as a noncontrolling interest. The noncontrolling interest was allocated the first $237,252 of TTWiiN's loss reducing the noncontrolling interest to zero at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Aside from the initial cash contribution by the Common Unit holders, the operations of TTWiiN have been funded by loans from the Company. TTWiiN could not fund its activities without subordinated financial support from the Company in the form of Preferred Units and loans substantially in excess of common equity from the Company and will continue to need further loans at least into 2018.

Note 16 - Commitments and contingencies

Purchase of stock The Company has agreements with stockholders to purchase their stock over a period of years prior to retirement. The purchase price is based on an independent valuation.

Lease commitments The Company is obligated under various operating leases for office space at various locations under leases that expire at various dates through January 2033. In addition to minimum annual rent, some of the leases provide for additional rent based on increases in real estate taxes and operating costs. Future minimum lease payments in each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 2017 and thereafter are as follows:

2018 11,193,000$ 2019 11,084,000 2020 10,871,000 2021 6,879,000 2022 5,799,000 Thereafter 25,690,000

Total 71,516,000$

Total rent expense including escalation charges and related taxes for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 amounted to $13,638,853 and $13,141,243, respectively, net of real estate tax abatement of approximately $92,000 and $49,000 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company subleased part of their office spaces to nonaffiliated lessees through February 2021, which generated rental income in the amount of $1,498,163 and $1,383,312 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Future minimum annual rental income under the noncancellable operating leases are as follow:

2018 1,160,000$ 2019 830,000 2020 843,000 2021 70,000

Total 2,903,000$

Sales-leaseback In September 2013, the Company entered into two equipment sale-leaseback agreements in the amount of $2,110,502. The leases each have 36-month terms with total monthly payments of $61,739, including interest at 3.40%. The last payment was made in September 2016. The depreciation of leased equipment is included in depreciation expense.

Litigation The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceeding covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Guarantees The Company is the guarantor of bank loans to various stockholders. The loans totaled $7,279,582 and $7,995,726 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The stockholders' stock in the Company collateralizes their bank loans and the Company's guarantee. As of April 20, 2018, the outstanding balance was $5,972,630.

Note 17 - Concentration risks

Credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and contracts receivable.

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances in several financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. From time-to-time, the Company's balances may exceed these limits. At December 31, 2017, the Company's uninsured bank balances totaled approximately $7,142,000. The Company limits its credit risk by selecting financial institutions considered to be highly credit-worthy.

At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company's cash balances in overseas locations total approximately $3,743,000 and $2,643,000, respectively, and were not covered by any foreign government insurance that is similar to FDIC. No more than $847,000 and $757,000 of these amounts were on deposit in any one bank.

The completed and signed form and supporting information (if applicable, for Joint Ventures) should be returned with the Vendor ’s submittal. If not provided with submittal, the Vendor must submit within three business days of County ’s request. Failure to timely submit this form and supporting information may affect the Vendor ’s evaluation. Provided information is subject to verification by the County.

A Vendor ’s principal place of business location (also known as the nerve center) within Broward County is considered in accordance with Evaluation Criteria. The County ’s definition of a principal place of business is:

1. As defined by the Broward County Local Preference Ordinance, “Principal place of business means the nerve center or center of overall direction, control and coordination of the activities of the bidder [Vendor]. If the bidder has only one (1) business location, such business location shall be considered its principal place of business.”

2. A principal place of business refers to the place where a corporation's officers direct, control, and coordinate the corporation's day-to-day activities.

1.

2. A principal place of business refers to the place where a corporation's officers direct, control, and coordinate the corporation's day-to-day activities. It is the corporation's ‘nerve center ’ and in practice it should normally be the place where the corporation maintains its headquarters; provided that the headquarters is the actual center of direction, control, and coordination, i.e., the ‘nerve center ’, and not simply an office where the corporation holds its board meetings (for example, attended by directors and officers who have traveled there for the occasion).
