MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Overview
The results for the third quarter reflect a very difficult recruiting
environment both in information technology and in the high-end executive
search practice and not a reduction in the demand for these types of
services. The traditional clerical staffing business posted solid growth
during the third quarter. The softness in the information technology
business is due primarily to the very limited supply of information
technology professionals with web-based applications experience. In July
2000, the Company announced the signing of a contract with Shanghai
Foreign Service Company Ltd., ("FSCO") to be the exclusive agent
representing information technology consultants from the People's
Republic of China to work in the United States. The Company believes
that this could potentially have a significant impact on the Company's
ability to solve the supply issue for its clients.
The executive search segment was softer than expected in the third
quarter as more candidates than usual received extremely aggressive
counter offers from current employers. In addition, the merger activity
in the financial services industry during the third quarter resulted in a
temporary slowdown as the industry sorted out the impact of these
mergers. The Company believes that it could benefit from the merger
activity as it could create additional supply of qualified candidates.
Consolidated
Revenues increased $1,449,000 or 1.6% to $91,678,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2000, from $90,229,000 for the same period in 1999.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, revenues were $284,648,000,
an increase of 3.5% from $275,055,000 a year earlier. These increases
are attributable to the executive search acquisition completed in the
latter part of 1999, as well as internal growth. The only area of the
Company's business that did not experience growth was information
technology staffing for which the demand for qualified candidates is much
greater than the supply.
The executive search subsidiary, Whitney Partners, LLC (Whitney),
contributed $8,363,000 to consolidated revenues in the third quarter of
2000, an increase of $1,909,000 from $6,454,000 for the same period in
1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, Whitney revenues
were $29,047,000, an increase of 37% from $21,160,000 a year earlier.
This increase is attributable to the Tyzack acquisition completed in the
latter part of 1999, very strong performance from the Company's existing
executive search practice in the United Kingdom, and growth in the
Company's e-commerce executive search practice in Chicago.
The staffing subsidiary, Headway Corporate Staffing Services, Inc. (HCSS)
contributed revenues of $83,315,000 to consolidated revenues in the third
quarter of 2000, a decrease of $460,000 from $83,775,000 for the third
quarter of 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, HCSS
revenues were $255,601,000, an increase of 0.7% from $253,895,000 a year
earlier. Revenues were only slightly ahead of 1999, as the very low
supply of information technology staffing candidates has resulted in the
Company's inability to meet its clients' demand. This is an industry
wide issue.
Total operating expenses increased $2,428,000 to $88,004,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000, from $85,576,000 for the same
period in 1999. For the three months ended September 30, direct costs
decreased as a percentage of revenues to 74.1% in 2000 from 75.4% in
1999. For the nine months, operating expenses increased $8,187,000 to
$270,789,000 from $262,602,000 for the same period in 1999. For the nine
months, direct costs decreased as a percentage of revenues to 73.2% in
2000 from 75.9% in 1999. The decrease in direct costs as a percentage of
revenues is a result of the Company's changing business mix.
Specifically, the executive search
10
<PAGE>
business that has no direct costs is becoming a larger percentage of the
Company's total revenues. In addition, the Company experienced an
increase in the demand for permanent employees from its clients, which
also has no direct costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 increased $2,356,000 to
$18,689,000 from $16,333,000 for the same period in 1999. For the nine
months, selling, general and administrative expenses increased
$10,332,000 to $58,528,000 from $48,196,000 in 1999. The increase is
primarily attributed to the Tyzack acquisition completed in the later
part of 1999 as well as higher commission expenses associated with higher
revenues generated from permanent placements.
Direct costs for HCSS increased slightly as a percentage of HCSS revenues
to 81.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2000, from 81.3% for
the same period in 1999. For the nine months, direct costs for HCSS
declined as a percentage of HCSS revenue to 81.5% from 82.3% last year.
The nine-month decrease in direct costs, as a percentage of revenues is a
result of the Company's mix of business, which was more heavily weighted
toward the higher margin permanent placements.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a
percentage of revenues from 18.1% in the third quarter 1999 to 20.4% in
the third quarter 2000. For the nine months, consolidated selling,
general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of revenues
from 17.5% in 1999 to 20.6% in 2000. The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to the higher
commission expense associated with higher revenues generated from
permanent placements.
Included in operating expenses for the first quarter of 1999 is a special
charge of $2,329,000 paid in connection with the termination of an
employment agreement.
Whitney's selling, general and administrative expenses increased
$2,129,000 to $6,756,000 in the third quarter of 2000, from $4,627,000
for the same period last year. For the nine months of 2000, Whitney's
selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6,564,000 to
$21,419,000 in 2000 as compared to $14,855,000 in 1999. This increase is
primarily a result of higher compensation expense directly related to the
increase in revenue, as well as the operating expenses of Tyzack that was
acquired in the latter part of 1999.
Operating income decreased $979,000 to $3,674,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2000, compared to $4,653,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1999. For the nine month period ended September 30,
2000 operating income increased 11.3% or $1,406,000 to $13,859,000
compared to $12,453,000 for the comparable period in 1999. Included in
the 1999 nine month operating income is the $2,329,000 termination
payment paid in the first quarter. Excluding this payment, operating
income decreased $923,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to the same period in 1999.
Net income decreased $907,000 to $870,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to $1,777,000 for the same period in 1999.
Net income decreased $19,000 to $4,491,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to $4,510,000 for the same period in 1999.
This decrease includes the termination payment in the first quarter of
1999, which had an after tax effect of $1,351,000. Excluding this item,
net income decreased 23.4% to $4,491,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to $5,861,000 for the same period in 1999.
The decrease in net income was attributable to higher interest expense as
a result of the increase in debt and higher interest rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by operations during the nine months ended September 30,
2000 was $4,737,000 compared with cash provided by operations of
$6,174,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The cash provided in 2000
was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts payable, accrued
payroll, income taxes payable and depreciation and amortization, offset
by an increase in accounts receivable.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company used $6,567,000
in investing activities compared to

$10,884,000 for the same period in 1999. The cash used for investing
activities in 2000 and in 1999 related primarily to payments for
acquisitions completed during 1997, 1998 and 1999 as well as capital
expenditures.
Total net cash provided from financing activities was $261,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to net cash provided by
financing activities of $1,116,000 for the same period in 1999. The cash
generated in 2000 was a result of additional borrowings under the
Company's senior credit facility offset by repayments of notes payables,
capital lease obligations, payments for loan acquisition fees and cash
dividends. The cash generated in 1999 was a result of additional
borrowings under the Company's senior credit facility and proceeds from
the exercise of options and warrants, offset by purchases of treasury
stock, repayments of notes payables, capital lease obligations and cash
dividends.
The Company's working capital improved to $30,824,000 at September 30,
2000, from $30,566,000 at December 31, 1999. Management expects that the
Company's working capital position will be sufficient to meet all of the
working capital needs for the remainder of the year. In addition, at
September 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $19,000,000 available
under its senior credit facility.
Year 2000 Compliance
In prior years, Headway discussed the nature of its plans related to Year
2000 compliance. As a result of those planning efforts, Headway
experienced no significant disruptions in mission critical information
technology and non-information technology systems and believes those
systems successfully responded to the Year 2000 date change. The costs
associated with Year 2000 compliance were nominal. Headway is not aware
of any material problems resulting from Year 2000 issues with its
internal systems or the services of third parties. Headway will continue
to monitor its mission critical computer applications and those of its
supplier and vendors throughout the year to ensure that any latent Year
2000 matters that may arise are addressed properly.
