EXPLANATORY NOTE

Hill International, Inc. (“Hill” or the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015 (the “Original Form 10-Q”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 5, 2015 (the “Original Filing Date”) to restate and amend the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements and related financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 included in its Original Form 10-Q to reflect a change related to its accounting treatment for accounts receivable from the Libyan Organization for Development of Administrative Centres (“ODAC”) (the “Libya Receivable”) and certain related liabilities. The Company has included significant disclosures regarding the status of the Libya Receivable in its prior periodic reports filed with the SEC. In addition, concurrently with the filing of this Amendment, the Company is filing an amendment to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 to restate is previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to restate its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

Except as described in this Explanatory Note, the financial statements, financial statement footnote disclosures and related financial information in the Original Form 10-Q are unchanged. In particular, except for the events described under “Background” below, this Amendment has not been updated to reflect any events that have occurred after the Original Form 10-Q was filed or to modify or update disclosures affected by other subsequent events. Accordingly, forward-looking statements included in this Amendment represent management’s views as of the Original Filing Date and should not be assumed to be accurate as of any date thereafter.

Background

The Company began work in Libya in 2007. From that time through early 2010, the Company had received payments totaling approximately $104,000,000 related to its services there. In April 2010, the Libyan government halted all payments to firms pending a review of the government procurement process. The Company continued to work during the review period and during that time its Libya Receivable balance grew to approximately $76,000,000. At the completion of its review in November 2010, the Libyan agency responsible for auditing contracts, RQABA, acknowledged that our receivables were proper and were owed in full. In December 2010 and January 2011, we received payments totaling $15,900,000 and were advised that an additional $31,600,000 had been scheduled for payment. In February 2011, due to civil and political unrest in Libya, we suspended our operations in and demobilized substantially all of our personnel from Libya. During the second half of 2011, the Company received various communications from ODAC requesting that the Company re-submit all open invoices for processing since much of the original documentation had been lost during the turmoil. The Company complied with ODAC’s request and accordingly re-submitted copies of all open invoices. This pro-active request from ODAC, in the Company’s assessment, provided evidence of ODAC’s intention to fulfill its obligations that existed prior to the political unrest. During late 2012 and early 2013, the Company was advised by ODAC that, due to the political division in the country, payments had been temporarily restricted to local payroll. During late 2013 and early 2014, the Company received payments of approximately $9,500,000 from ODAC who also posted a letter of credit of approximately $14,000,000 in the Company’s favor which expired on June 30, 2014. Management believed that this was a positive indication that ODAC intended to fulfill its obligations to the Company.

In connection with a review by the staff (the “Staff”) of the SEC of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and Definitive Proxy Statement filed April 30, 2015 (the “Staff Review”), the Staff made inquiries with respect to the accounting treatment of the Libya Receivable. After subsequent communications between the Staff and the Company relating to the Staff Review, the Company, under the direction of its Audit Committee, re-evaluated its historical and then current practices with respect to analyzing the collectability of accounts receivable in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In connection with this re-evaluation, the Company determined that its previous accounting treatment for the Libya Receivable was no longer appropriate as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. Therefore, the Company reserved the entire Libya Receivable of $59,937,000 and eliminated $11,388,000 of certain assets and liabilities related to that receivable resulting in a net adjustment of $48,549,000 which was charged to selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012. Additionally, the Company has reflected subsequent receipts against the Libya Receivable, net of payments for the related agency fees and certain taxes, as reductions of selling, general and administrative expenses. Accordingly, the Company reflected 2013 receipts of approximately

$2,880,000 and payments of approximately $640,000 as a net reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses amounting to approximately $2,880,000 plus a related income tax expense adjustment of $307,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, and 2014 receipts of approximately $6,631,000 and payments of approximately $1,683,000 as a net reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses amounting to approximately $4,948,000 plus a related income tax benefit of $307,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. In addition, the Company recorded certain unrelated adjustments to consulting fee revenues, cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses and taxes for the year ended December 31, 2014. These unrelated adjustments decreased net earnings by approximately $393,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. These unrelated adjustments were the direct result of the restatement because previous immaterial variances in certain accounts that were not recorded during the December 31, 2014 year end closing process became material when aggregated and assessed against the restated 2014 financial statements.

The adjustments to reflect the change in estimate as to the collectability of the Libya Receivable and related adjustments resulted in a decrease in basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.01 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and an increase in basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.13 and $0.12, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net earnings attributable to Hill decreased approximately $393,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and earnings attributable to Hill increased approximately $5,255,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Effects of Restatement

This Amendment amends and restates the Original Form 10-Q to change the Company’s estimate of loss on its Libya Receivable as of December 31, 2012, subsequent recoveries of the Libya Receivable in 2013 and 2014 and certain unrelated adjustments as more fully described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and to reflect certain adjustments to accruals related to the Libya Receivable. Revisions to the Original Form 10-Q have been made to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in Part I - Item 1 - Financial Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and, where necessary, to the following other items to reflect the restatements:

· Part I, Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

· Part I, Item 4 — Controls and Procedures

Part II - Item 6 of this Amendment has been amended to include as exhibits currently dated certifications from the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Restatement and Revision to Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 and for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 due to a change in the Company’s estimation of the collectability of its Libya Receivable. Due to the civil and political unrest which commenced in Libya in February 2011, the Company suspended its operations in and demobilized substantially all of its personnel from Libya. At December 31, 2012, the Libya Receivable was approximately $59,937,000, however, because of the political instability and economic uncertainty within Libya and because a promised payment of $31,600,000 in 2011 never materialized, the Company determined that its previous accounting treatment for the Libya Receivable was no longer appropriate as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company has established a reserve against the entire Libya Receivable amounting to $59,937,000 and eliminated $11,388,000 of certain assets and net liabilities related to that receivable, consisting of sub-consultants and other contingent expenses in 2012, which are contractually owed only upon receipt of payment. These adjustments resulted in a net charge to selling, general and administrative expenses of $48,549,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. We received approximately $2,880,000 and $6,631,000 in 2013 and 2014, respectively and have paid agency fees and certain taxes amounting to $640,000 and $1,638,000 in 2013 and 2014, respectively. We have accounted for these transactions as a net reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,240,000 and $4,948,000 in 2013 and 2014, respectively. In addition the Company recorded certain unrelated adjustments to consulting fee revenue, cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses and income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2014 which also affected those items in the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. In the aggregate, these unrelated adjustments decreased the net earnings by approximately $393,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. These unrelated adjustments were the direct result of the restatement because previous immaterial variances in certain accounts that were not recorded during the December 31, 2014 year end closing process became material when aggregated and assessed against the restated 2014 financial statements. The impact of correcting the misstatement on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows is as follows:

Note 3 — Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to reports on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2014. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hill and its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

Note 4 — Acquisitions

Our recent acquisition activity is detailed below. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the operating results of these businesses from their respective dates of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because they are not material to the Company’s consolidated results of operations, either individually or in the aggregate.

Libya Receivable

The Company has open but inactive contracts with the Libyan Organization for the Development of Administrative Centres (“ODAC”). Due to the civil unrest which commenced in Libya in February 2011, the Company suspended its operations in and demobilized substantially all of its personnel from Libya. At December 31, 2012, the balance of the Libya Receivable was approximately $59,937,000. Because of the continuing political instability in Libya, the Company established a reserve for the full amount of the receivable as of December 31, 2012. During 2013, the Company received approximately $2,880,000 against the receivable. In the first quarter of 2014, the Company received additional payments of approximately $6,631,000 against the receivable which has been reflected as a reduction of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the six-months ended June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, after a decrease of approximately $667,000 due to the effect of foreign exchange translation losses, the Libya Receivable was approximately $49,759,000 which continues to be fully reserved. It is management’s intention to continue to pursue collection of monies owed to the Company by ODAC and, if subsequent payments are received, the Company will reflect such receipts, net of any third party obligations related to the collections, as reductions of SG&A expenses.

Refinancing

Effective as of September 26, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, entered into a credit agreement with Société Générale, as administrative agent (the “Agent”) and collateral agent, TD Bank, N.A., as syndication agent and HSBC Bank USA, N.A., as documentation agent, (collectively, the “U.S. Lenders”) consisting of a term loan facility of $120,000,000 (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a $30,000,000 U.S. dollar-denominated facility available to the Company (the “U.S. Revolver,” together with the Term Loan Facility, the “U.S. Credit Facilities”) and a credit agreement with the Agent, as administrative agent and collateral agent, (the “International Lender”) providing a facility of approximately €11,765,000 ($15,000,000 at the closing date and $13,199,000 at June 30, 2015) which is available to the Subsidiary (the “International Revolver” and together with the U.S. Revolver, the “Revolving Credit Facilities” and, together with the U.S. Credit Facilities, the “Secured Credit Facilities”). The U.S. Revolver and the International Revolver include sub-limits for letters of credit amounting to $25,000,000 and €8,000,000, respectively.

The Secured Credit Facilities contain customary default provisions, representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants, and require the Company to comply with certain financial and reporting covenants (see Note 19). The financial covenants consist of a Maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio and an Excess Account Concentration requirement. The Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is the ratio of (a) consolidated total debt (minus cash of up to

Table of Contents

$10,000,000 held in the aggregate) to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation for the trailing twelve months. The Excess Account Concentration covenant permits the U.S. Lenders and the International Lender to increase the interest rates by 2.0% if, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, either (a) the total of accounts receivable from all clients within any country not listed as a Permitted Country as defined in the Secured Credit Facilities (other than the United Arab Emirates) that are more than 120 days old (relative to the invoice date) constitute more than 10% of the total outstanding accounts receivable or (b) accounts receivable from any individual client located in the United Arab Emirates that are more than 120 days old (relative to the invoice date) constitute more than 14% of the total outstanding accounts receivable; provided that, in each case, the accounts receivable due from clients located in Libya that exist as of the Closing Date shall be excluded for all purposes of this covenant. The interest rate will be reset as soon as the accounts receivable over 120 days decline below the 10% or 14% levels. At June 30, 2015, non-permitted accounts receivable did not exceed the limits set forth above.

The following compares the Maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio to the actual consolidated net leverage ratio at June 30, 2015:

Not to exceed		Actual
		(Restated)
3.50 to 1.00		3.41 to 1.00

The U.S. Credit Facilities are guaranteed by certain U.S. subsidiaries of the Company, and the International Revolver is guaranteed by the Company and certain of the Company’s U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries.

Term Loan Facility

The interest rate on the Term Loan Facility will be, at the Company’s option, either:

· the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for the relevant interest period plus 6.75% per annum, provided that such LIBOR shall not be lower than 1.00% per annum; or

· the Base Rate (as described below) plus 5.75% per annum.

The “Base Rate” is a per annum rate equal to the highest of (A) the prime rate, (B) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or (C) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month plus 1.0% per annum. Upon a default, the applicable rate of interest under the Secured Credit Facilities may increase by 2.0%. The LIBOR on the Term Loan Facilities (including when determining the Base Rate) shall in no event be less than 1.0% per annum.

The Company has the right to prepay the Term Loan Facility in full or in part at any time without premium or penalty; provided, however that upon the occurrence of prepayments relating to certain repricing transactions within the first year following closing, a 1.0% prepayment premium will be payable. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan Facility, without premium or penalty, (i) with net proceeds of any issuance or incurrence of indebtedness (other than that permitted under the Term Loan Facility) by the Company after the closing, (ii) with net proceeds from certain asset sales outside the ordinary course of business, and (iii) with 50% of the excess cash flow (as defined in the agreement) for each fiscal year of the Borrowers commencing with the first full fiscal year ending after closing (which percentage would be reduced to 25% if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 2.25 to 1.00 or reduced to 0% if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 1.50 to 1.00).

The Term Loan Facility is generally secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all assets of the Company and certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries other than accounts receivable, cash proceeds thereof and certain bank accounts, as to which the Term Loan Facility is secured by a second-priority security interest.

The Term Loan Facility has a term of six years, requires repayment of 0.25% of the original principal amount on a quarterly basis through September 30, 2020, the maturity date. Any amounts repaid on the Term Loan Facility will not be available to be re-borrowed.

The Company incurred fees and expenses related to the Term Loan Facility aggregating $7,066,000 which were deferred. The deferred fees are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, to

Table of Contents

interest and related financing fees, net over a six-year period which ends on September 30, 2020. Unamortized balances of $6,183,000 and $6,772,000 are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facilities

The interest rate on borrowings under the U.S. Revolver will be, at the Company’s option from time to time, either the LIBOR for the relevant interest period plus 3.75% per annum or the Base Rate plus 2.75% per annum.

The interest rate on borrowings under the International Revolver will be the European Inter-Bank Offered Rate, or “EURIBOR,” for the relevant interest period (or at a substitute rate to be determined to the extent EURIBOR is not available) plus 4.00% per annum.

The Company will pay a commitment fee calculated at 0.50% annually on the average daily unused portion of the U.S. Revolver, and the Subsidiary will pay a commitment fee calculated at 0.75% annually on the average daily unused portion of the International Revolver.

The ability to borrow under each of the U.S. Revolver and the International Revolver is subject to a “borrowing base,” calculated using a formula based upon approximately 85% of receivables that meet or satisfy certain criteria (“Eligible Receivables”) and that are subject to a perfected security interest held by either the U.S. Lenders or the International Lender, plus, in the case of the International Revolver only, 10% of Eligible Receivables that are not subject to a perfected security interest held by the International Lender, subject to certain exceptions and restrictions.

The Company or the Subsidiary, as applicable, will be required to make mandatory prepayments under their respective Revolving Credit Facilities to the extent that the aggregate outstanding amount thereunder exceeds the then-applicable borrowing base, which payments will be made without penalty or premium. At June 30, 2015, the domestic borrowing base was $30,000,000 and the international borrowing base was €11,765,000 (approximately $13,199,000 at June 30, 2015).

Generally, the obligations of the Company under the U.S. Revolver are secured by a first-priority security interest in the above-referenced accounts receivable, cash proceeds and bank accounts of the Company and certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries, and a second-priority security interest in substantially all other assets of the Company and such subsidiaries. The obligations of the Subsidiary under the International Revolver would generally be secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all accounts receivable, cash proceeds thereof and certain bank accounts of the Subsidiary and certain of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries, and a second-priority security interest in substantially all other assets of the Company and certain of the Company’s U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries.

Note 11 — Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share has been computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share incorporates the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive. Dilutive stock options increased the average common shares outstanding by approximately 1,012,000 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and by approximately 581,000 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Options to purchase 3,198,000 shares and 3,871,000 shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 because they were antidilutive. Dilutive stock options increased the average common shares outstanding by approximately 2,023,000 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and by approximately 1,386,000 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Options to purchase 1,355,000 shares and 2,034,000 shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 because they were antidilutive.

Note 14 — Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 36.3% and 33.0%, respectively, and 41.2% and 14.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate represents the Company’s effective tax rate for the year based on projected income and mix of income among the various foreign tax jurisdictions, adjusted for discrete transactions occurring during the period. The Company recognized an income tax expense (benefit) related to an increase (decrease) in the reserve for uncertain tax positions totaling $245,000 and ($2,514,000) for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized an income tax expense (benefit) resulting from adjustments to agree the prior year’s book amounts to the actual amounts per the tax returns totaling ($85,000) and $44,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $0 and $44,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For both years, the Company’s effective tax rate is significantly higher than it otherwise would be primarily as a result of not being able to record an income tax benefit related to the U.S. net operating loss and various foreign withholding taxes.

The reserve for uncertain tax positions amounted to $1,220,000 and $975,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and is included in “Other liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheet at those dates. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015, the reserve for uncertain tax positions was increased by $245,000 and was due to certain tax positions taken in foreign jurisdictions. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the reserve for uncertain tax positions was reduced by $2,514,000 based on management’s assessment that these items were effectively settled with the appropriate foreign tax authorities. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company also reclassified $420,000 from “Income taxes payable” to the reserve for uncertain tax positions primarily taken in foreign jurisdictions.

The Company’s policy is to record income tax related interest and penalties in income tax expense. At both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions amounting to $520,000 was included in the balance above.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. Management evaluates the need for valuation allowances on the deferred tax assets according to the provisions of ASC740, Income Taxes. They consider both positive and negative evidence. In making this determination, management assesses all of the evidence available at the time including recent earnings, internally-prepared income projections, and historical financial performance.

Note 17 — Commitments and Contingencies

General Litigation

M.A. Angeliades, Inc. (“Plaintiff”) has filed a complaint with the Supreme Court of New York against the Company and the New York City Department of Design and Construction (“DDC”) regarding payment of approximately $8,771,000 for work performed as a subcontractor to the Company plus interest and other cost. The Company has accrued approximately $2,340,000, including interest of approximately $500,000, based on invoices received from Plaintiff who has refused to provide invoices for additional work that Plaintiff claims to have performed. Until such time as the Company obtains invoices for the additional work and is able to provide those invoices to DDC for reimbursement or there is a full resolution of the litigation, it has no intention of paying Plaintiff. The Company believes that its position is defensible, however, there can be no assurance that it will receive a favorable verdict should this case proceed to trial.

A former executive of the Company (“Plaintiff”), resigned and filed a labor dispute with the Company in the Dubai Labour Court seeking AED 4,536,239 for end of service remuneration. The Company filed a counterclaim against Plaintiff for breach of employment contract and filed a complaint against Plaintiff’s new employer, Driver Group plc, in the UK, for breach of non-solicitation and non-compete obligations in Plaintiff’s employment agreement. On June 15, 2015 the Company paid Plaintiff AED 750,000 ($200,000) pursuant to an executed settlement agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded an additional $100,000 associated with the settlement payment and $834,000 of related legal costs.

From time to time, the Company is a defendant or plaintiff in various legal actions which arise in the normal course of business. As such the Company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of the provision required for these commitments and contingencies, if any, which would be charged to earnings, is made after careful analysis of each matter. The provision may change in the future due to new developments or changes in circumstances. Changes in the provision could increase or decrease the Company’s earnings in the period the changes are made. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Acquisition-Related Contingencies

At June 30, 2015, our subsidiary, Hill International (Spain), S.A. (“Hill Spain”), owned an indirect 72% interest in Engineering S.A. (“ESA”), a firm located in Brazil. ESA’s shareholders entered into an agreement whereby the minority shareholders have a right to compel (“ESA Put Option”) Hill Spain to purchase any or all of their shares during the period

Table of Contents

from February 28, 2014 to February 28, 2021. Hill Spain also has the right to compel (“ESA Call Option”) the minority shareholders to sell any or all of their shares during the same time period. The purchase price for such shares shall be seven times the earnings before interest and taxes for ESA’s most recently ended fiscal year, net of any financial debt plus excess cash multiplied by a percentage which the shares to be purchased bear to the total number of shares outstanding at the time of purchase, but in the event the ESA Call Option is exercised by Hill Spain, the purchase price shall be increased by five percent. The ESA Put Option and the ESA Call Option must be made within three months after the audited financial statements of ESA have been completed.

In April 2015, two shareholders who own approximately 19% of ESA exercised their ESA Put Options claiming an aggregate value of BRL 10,645,000 (approximately $3,416,000 at June 30, 2015). The Company intends to pay the liability in shares of its common stock. As an incentive to the sellers to receive Hill’s common stock as payment, the Company has offered the sellers a 25% premium. The sellers have countered the Company’s offer by requesting payment in common stock at the U.S. dollar value on April 4, 2015 (approximately $4,374,000) as well as a price guarantee upon the sale of the stock during a 30-day period after closing. At June 30, 2015, the Company has accrued a liability for the amount of its offer, including the premium, amounting to BRL 13,306,000 (approximately $4,270,000) which is included in other current liabilities and as an adjustment to additional paid in capital in the consolidated balance sheet. Any adjustment to the accrued liability will be recorded upon the completion of the transaction at which time the Company will own approximately 91% of ESA.

The Company is committed to pay additional consideration for the purchase of Cadogans in the amount of £519,000 (approximately $816,000) to be paid in cash on October 31, 2015 and an earn-out based upon the average earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the two-year period ending on October 31, 2016 (which amount shall not be less than £0 nor more than £200,000). See Note 4.

Note 18 — Other Matters

In connection with the move of its corporate headquarters to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Company received the following from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the City of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation:

· a $1,000,000 grant received on July 13, 2015. The terms of the grant require the Company to spend at least $6,425,000 on capital expenditures for leasehold improvements and equipment for its new headquarters, remain at One Commerce Square for at least seven years and employ at least 359 persons no later than April 1, 2018. The Company has met the capital expenditure requirement and has a twelve year lease for its corporate headquarters. Upon receipt of the funds, the Company recorded a deferred credit which, assuming the employment requirement is met, will be reflected in income in the second quarter of 2018;

· a low interest loan amounting to $750,000. See Note 9;

· a loan amounting to $345,000 which is forgivable if the Company achieves and maintains certain employment levels within the City of Philadelphia by April 30, 2020. The Company is accounting for this item in a manner similar to the grant and has included the deferred credit in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2015. Assuming the employment levels are met, the Company will reflect the item in income in the second quarter of 2020; and

· certain job creation tax credits amounting to $666,000 from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

The landlord for the new headquarters provided the Company with a tenant improvement allowance amounting to approximately $3,894,000. The tenant improvement allowance has been deferred, is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2015 and is being amortized on a straight-line basis against rent expense over the term of the twelve-year lease commencing on May 1, 2015.

Note 19 — Subsequent Event (Restated)

In connection with the restatement of its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company became in technical default of its Secured Credit Facilities due to certain misrepresentations,

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

This Item 2 has been amended and restated to give effect to the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements due to a change in the accounting treatment for the Libya Receivable and certain related assets and liabilities as discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report for additional information.

Overview

Our revenue consists of two components: consulting fee revenue (“CFR”) and reimbursable expenses. Reimbursable expenses are reflected in equal amounts in both total revenue and total direct expenses. Because these pass-through revenue/costs are subject to significant fluctuation from year to year, we measure the performance of many of our key operating metrics as a percentage of CFR, as we believe that this is a better and more consistent measure of operating performance than total revenue.

CFR increased $15,223,000, or 10.5%, to $159,738,000 during the second quarter of 2015 from $144,515,000 during the second quarter of 2014. CFR for the Project Management segment increased $7,943,000, principally due to increased work in the United States and the Middle East, partially offset by decreases in Latin America. CFR for the Construction Claims segment increased by $7,280,000, or 20.2%, due primarily to increases in the Middle East, the United Kingdom and the United States.

CFR increased $29,115,000, or 10.3%, to $310,879,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $281,764,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2014. CFR for the Project Management segment increased $18,272,000 principally due to increased work in the Middle East and the United States, partially offset by decreases in Latin America. CFR for the Construction Claims segment increased by $10,843,000, or 15.2%, due primarily to increases in the Middle East, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Net earnings attributable to Hill were $4,395,000 during the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 189.5%, from $1,518,000 during the second quarter of 2014. The increase was due to higher operating profit from the increase in CFR and lower interest expense. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.09 during the second quarter of 2015 based upon 51,495,000 diluted common shares outstanding compared to diluted earnings per common share of $0.04 during the second quarter of 2014 based upon 42,591,000 diluted common shares outstanding.

Net earnings attributable to Hill were $5,097,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of 25.3%, from $6,826,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was due to higher SG&A costs partially offset by higher CFR and lower interest expense. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.10 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 based upon 51,010,000 diluted common shares outstanding compared to diluted earnings per common share of $0.16 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 based upon 41,570,000 diluted common shares outstanding.

The Company has open but inactive contracts with the Libyan Organization for the Development of Administrative Centres (“ODAC”). Due to the civil unrest which commenced in Libya in February 2011, the Company suspended its operations in and demobilized substantially all of its personnel from Libya. At December 31, 2012, the balance of the Libya Receivable was approximately $59,937,000. Because of the continuing political instability in Libya, the Company established a reserve for the full amount of the receivable as of December 31, 2012. During 2013, the Company received payments on the Libya Receivable of approximately $2,880,000 against the receivable. In the first quarter of 2014, the Company received approximately $6,631,000 against the Libya Receivable which has been reflected as a reduction of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the six-months ended June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, after a decrease of approximately $667,000 due to the effect of foreign exchange translation losses, the Libya Receivable was approximately $49,759,000 which continues to be fully reserved. It is management’s intention to continue to pursue collection of monies owed to the Company by ODAC and, if subsequent payments are received, the Company will reflect such receipts, net of any third party obligations related to the collections, as reductions of SG&A expenses.

We remain optimistic about maintaining our current growth strategy to pursue new business development opportunities, continue to take advantage of organic growth opportunities, continue to pursue acquisitions and strengthen our professional resources. In addition, we have completed a review of our global overhead cost structure and we are in the process of reducing more than $25,000,000 in annual overhead costs. The areas most affected are personnel and related benefits and expenses. We believe these efforts combined with continued revenue growth should significantly improve profitability and shareholder value. Our total backlog was $944,000,000 as of June 30, 2015, a decrease of $51,000,000 from March 31, 2015. Our 12-month backlog was $428,000,000 as of June 30, 2015, a decrease of $14,000,000 from March 31, 2015. These decreases are primarily related to reductions in the Middle East, Europe and Latin America.

Critical Accounting Policies

We operate through two segments: the Project Management Group and the Construction Claims Group. Reimbursable expenses are reflected in equal amounts in both total revenue and total direct expenses. Because these revenues/costs are subject to significant fluctuations from year to year, we measure the performance of many of our key operating metrics as a percentage of consulting fee revenue (“CFR”), as we believe that this is a better and more consistent measure of operating performance that total revenue.

The Company’s interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make subjective decisions, assessments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the judgment increases such judgments become even more subjective. While management believes its assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, actual results may be materially different that estimated. The critical accounting estimates and assumptions have not materially changed from those identified in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report.

One discrete item which impacted SG&A expenses was an increase of $1,057,000 in 2015 due to the acquisition of Cadogans in October 2014.

Other significant components of the change in SG&A are as follows:

· An increase in unapplied and indirect labor of $1,106,000, primarily due to pay increases and the acquisitions of Cadogans and IMS. As a percentage of CFR, unapplied and indirect labor was lower in 2015 at 21.9% compared to 23.5% in 2014;

· An increase in legal fees of $1,697,000 including $834,000 related to an employee termination matter and $373,000 related to the proxy dispute, including litigation in Delaware; and

· An increase of $670,000 in bad debt expense primarily because the second quarter of 2014 was favorably affected by the reversal of a $450,000 reserve for certain accounts receivable in Spain due to their collection.

The increase in Project Management operating profit included increases in the United States and the United Arab Emirates, partially offset by decreases in Brazil, Oman and Iraq.

The increase in Construction Claims operating profit was primarily due to increases in the Middle East and the United States.

Corporate expenses increased by $1,510,000 which was primarily due to salary increases and legal fees including $373,000 related to the proxy dispute. Corporate expenses represented 5.7% of CFR during the second quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to 5.3% during the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

Interest Expense and Related Financing Fees, net

Net interest and related financing fees decreased $2,115,000 to $3,531,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared with $5,646,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to the 2014 interest accretion related to the previous term loan agreement which was paid off and terminated in the third quarter of 2014.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense of $2,586,000 and $993,000, respectively. The income tax expense in both periods was related to the pre-tax income generated from foreign operations adjusted for discrete items during the period and without recognizing an income tax benefit related to the U.S. net operating loss which management believes the Company will not be able to utilize. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized a $245,000 income tax expense related to an increase in the reserve for uncertain tax positions due to a tax position taken in a foreign jurisdiction. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized a $2,514,000 income tax benefit related to the reversal of the reserve for uncertain tax positions based on management’s assessment that these items were effectively settled with the appropriate foreign tax authorities. The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 include tax (benefit) expense of ($85,000) and $44,000, respectively, resulting from adjustments to agree the prior year book amount to the actual amounts per the tax return.

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 36.3% and 33.0%, respectively. For both years, the Company’s effective tax rate is significantly higher than it otherwise would be primarily as a result of various foreign withholding taxes and not being able to record an income tax benefit related to the U.S. net operating loss.

Net Earnings Attributable to Hill International, Inc.

Net earnings attributable to Hill International, Inc. for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $4,395,000, or $0.09 per diluted common share, based on 51,495,000 diluted common shares outstanding, as compared to net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2014 of $1,518,000, or $0.04 per diluted common share, based upon 42,591,000 diluted common shares outstanding.

The increase in Project Management CFR included an organic increase of 8.1% and an increase of 0.6% due to the acquisition of IMS. The increase included an $11,428,000 increase in domestic projects and an increase of $6,844,000 in foreign projects. The increase in domestic Project Management CFR was due primarily to increases in our Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Western regions. The increase in foreign projects included increases in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, partially offset by decreases in Brazil, Oman and Iraq.

The increase in Construction Claims CFR was comprised of an organic increase of 12.4% and a 2.8% increase from the acquisition of Cadogans. The organic increase was primarily due to increases in the Middle East and the United States.

The increase in Project Management gross profit included an increase of $5,487,000 from domestic operations, primarily due to increases in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Western regions. There was an increase of $729,000 from foreign operations due to increases in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, partially offset by decreases in Brazil, Oman and Iraq.

The increase in Construction Claims gross profit was driven by increases in the Middle East, Cadogans and the United States.

· A net credit of $4,948,000 in 2014 as a result of cash recoveries against the Libya receivable; and

· A reduction of $1,225,000 in 2014 due to the elimination of a price guarantee on shares of the Company’s common stock issued in connection with the CPI acquisition.

Other significant components of the change in SG&A are as follows:

· An increase in unapplied and indirect labor of $4,519,000 primarily due to pay increases and increases in staff in the Middle East in support of increased work. As a percentage of CFR, unapplied and indirect labor was lower in 2015 at 23.4% compared to 24.4% in 2014;

· An increase in legal fees of $2,080,000 including $834,000 related to an employee termination matter and $373,000 related to the proxy dispute;

The decrease in Project Management operating profit included a decrease in Africa due to the net credit of $4,948,000 in 2014 related to the payment received in 2014 against the Libya Receivable. There were also decreases in Latin America and Oman offset by increases in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United States.

The increase in Construction Claims operating profit was primarily due to increases in the Middle East and the United States, partially offset by decreases in Asia/Pacific and Europe.

Corporate expenses increased by $3,281,000 which was primarily due to salary increases and legal fees including $373,000 related to the proxy dispute. Corporate expenses represented 5.9% of CFR during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to 5.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Interest Expense and Related Financing Fees, net

Interest and related financing fees decreased $3,617,000 to $7,105,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $10,722,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to the 2014 interest accretion related to the previous term loan agreement which was paid off and terminated in the third quarter of 2014.

Income Taxes

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $3,770,000 and $1,317,000, respectively. The income tax expense in both periods was related to the pre-tax income generated from foreign operations adjusted for discrete items during the period and without recognizing an income tax benefit related to the U.S. net operating loss which management believes the Company will not be able to utilize. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized a $245,000 income tax expense related to an increase in the reserve for uncertain tax positions due to a tax position taken in a foreign jurisdiction. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized a $2,514,000 income tax benefit related to the reversal of the reserve for uncertain tax positions based on management’s assessment that these items were effectively settled with the appropriate foreign tax authorities and also reclassified $420,000 from “Income taxes payable” to the reserve for uncertain tax positions primarily due to tax positions taken in foreign jurisdictions. The Company also recognized an income tax expense resulting from adjustments to agree the prior year’s book amounts to the actual amounts per the tax returns totaling $0 and $44,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 41.2% and 14.8%, respectively. For

Table of Contents

both years, the Company’s effective tax rate is significantly higher than it otherwise would be primarily as a result of various foreign withholding taxes and not being able to record an income tax benefit related to the U.S. net operating loss.

Net Earnings Attributable to Hill International, Inc.

Net earnings attributable to Hill International, Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $5,097,000, or $0.10 per diluted common share, based upon 51,010,000 diluted common shares outstanding, as compared to net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of $6,826,000, or $0.16 per diluted common share, based upon 41,570,000 diluted common shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Regulation G, conditions for use of Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“Non-GAAP”) financial measures, and other SEC regulations define and prescribe the conditions for use of certain Non-GAAP financial information. Generally, a Non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), in addition to operating profit, net earnings and other GAAP measures, is a useful indicator of our financial and operating performance and our ability to generate cash flows from operations that are available for taxes, capital expenditures and debt service. This measure, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute or superior to, operating profit, cash flows, or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table is a reconciliation of EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in accordance with SEC Regulation S-K for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a result of the worldwide financial situation in recent years as well as the political unrest in Libya, we have had to rely more heavily on borrowings under our various credit facilities to provide funding for our operations. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements for a description of our recent refinancing, credit facilities and term loan. At June 30, 2015, our primary sources of liquidity consisted of $31,571,000 of cash and cash equivalents, of which $28,796,000 was on deposit in foreign locations, and $4,740,000 of available borrowing capacity under our various credit facilities. Additionally, due to reduced collateral requirements of one of our lenders, approximately $8,326,000 of restricted cash was returned to us in July 2015. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to support the reasonably anticipated cash needs of our operations over the next twelve months. Also, significant unforeseen events, such as termination or cancellation of major contracts, could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations. If market opportunities exist, we may choose to undertake financing actions to further enhance our liquidity, which could include our ability to borrow additional funds under our credit agreements, obtaining new bank debt or raising funds through capital market transactions. See “Sources of Additional Capital” for further information.

Uncertainties With Respect to Operations in Libya

We have open but inactive contracts with the Libyan Organization for the Development of Administrative Centres (“ODAC”). Due to the civil unrest which commenced in Libya in February 2011, we suspended our operations in and demobilized substantially all of our personnel from Libya. At December 31, 2012, the Libya Receivable was approximately $59,937,000. Because of the continuing political instability in Libya, we established a reserve for the full amount of the receivable as of December 31, 2012. During 2013, we received payments against the Libya Receivable of approximately $2,880,000. In the first quarter of 2014, we received approximately $6,631,000 against the Libya Receivable which has been reflected as a reduction of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, after a decrease of approximately $667,000 due to the effect of foreign exchange translation losses, the Libya Receivable was approximately $49,759,000 which continues to be fully reserved. It is our intention to continue to pursue collection of monies owed to us by ODAC and, if subsequent payments are received, we will reflect such receipts, net of any third party obligations related to the collections, as reductions of SG&A expenses.

Additional Capital Requirements

Our subsidiary, Hill International (Spain), S.A. (“Hill Spain”), owns an indirect 72% interest in Engineering S.A. (“ESA”), a firm located in Brazil. ESA’s shareholders entered into an agreement whereby the minority shareholders have a right to compel (“ESA Put Option”) Hill Spain to purchase any or all of their shares during the period from February 28, 2014 to February 28, 2021. Hill Spain also has the right to compel (“ESA Call Option”) the minority shareholders to sell any or all of their shares during the same time period. The purchase price for such shares shall be seven times the earnings before interest and taxes for ESA’s most recently ended fiscal year, net of any financial debt plus excess cash multiplied by a percentage which the shares to be purchased bear to the total number of shares outstanding at the time of purchase, but in the event the ESA Call Option is exercised by Hill Spain, the purchase price shall be increased by five percent. The ESA Put Option and the ESA Call Option must be made within three months after the audited financial statements of ESA have been completed.

On October 31, 2014, our subsidiary Hill International (UK) Ltd. acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Angus Octan Scotland Ltd., which included its subsidiary companies Cadogan Consultants Ltd., Cadogan Consult Ltd. and Cadogan International Ltd. (collectively, “Cadogans”). Total consideration for the acquisition was £2,719,000 (approximately $4,350,000 at the date of acquisition). Cash payments of £2,000,000 ($3,200,000) were made during 2014. The remaining payouts consist of a cash payment of £519,000 ($830,000) to be paid on October 31, 2015 plus a potential earn out based upon Cadogans’ average earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the two-year period ending on October 31, 2016 (which amount shall not be less than £0 nor more than £200,000).

On April 15, 2015, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of IMS Proje Yonetimi ve Danismanlik A.S. (“IMS”). Total consideration for the acquisition was 18,511,000 Turkish Lira (“TRY”) of which TRY 12,411,000 (approximately $4,692,000) was paid in cash during the three months ended June 30, 2015. The remaining payouts consist of a Holdback Purchase Price of TRY 4,400,000 (approximately $1,626,000) payable in cash on April 15, 2016, less any set off related to certain indemnification obligations; and a potential Additional Purchase Price of (i) TRY 1,700,000 (approximately $628,000) if earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for the twelve month period subsequent to the closing date (“EBITDA”) exceeds TRY 3,500,000 (approximately $1,294,000) or (ii) TRY 1,500,000 ($554,000) if EBITDA is less than TRY 3,500,000 but not less than TRY 3,200,000 ($1,183000).

Sources of Additional Capital

We have an effective registration statement on Form S-3 on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register 20,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance and sale by us at various times in the future. The

Table of Contents

proceeds, if any, will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, subject to the restrictions of our Secured Credit Facility. We cannot predict the amount of proceeds from those future sales, if any, or whether there will be a market for our common stock at the time of any such offering or offerings to the public.

In addition, we have an effective registration statement on Form S-4 on file with the SEC to register 20,000,000 shares of our common stock for use in future acquisitions. We cannot predict whether, in the future, we will offer these shares to potential sellers of businesses or assets we might consider acquiring or whether these shares will be acceptable as consideration by any potential sellers.

At June 30, 2015, we had $4,740,000 of available borrowing capacity under our various credit agreements.

We also have arrangements with foreign banks for the issuance of letters of credit, letters of guarantee and performance bonds in a variety of foreign currencies. At June 30, 2015, we had approximately $29,055,000 of availability under these arrangements.

We cannot provide any assurance that any other sources of financing will be available, or if available, that the financing will be on terms acceptable to us.

Cash Flow Activity During the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, our cash and cash equivalents increased by $1,447,000 to $31,571,000. Cash used in operations was $7,469,000, cash used in investing activities was $13,443,000 and cash provided by financing activities was $25,021,000. We also experienced a decrease in cash of $2,662,000 from the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Operating Activities

Our operations used cash of $7,469,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This compares to cash used in operating activities of $7,630,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. We had a consolidated net income in the six months ended June 30, 2015 amounting to $5,383,000 compared to a consolidated income of $7,564,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2014. Depreciation and amortization was $5,423,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $4,864,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2014; the increase in this category is primarily due to amortization of intangibles arising from the acquisitions of Cadogans and IMS, the increase in property and equipment primarily related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters to Philadelphia partially offset by the full amortization of the shorter-lived intangible assets of companies which we acquired over the last several years.

Cash held in restricted accounts as collateral for the issuance of performance and advance payment bonds and letters of credit at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $14,582,000 and $16,007,000, respectively. The change results primarily from a reduction in the collateral requirements due to a change in financial institutions, partially offset by increases due to new collateral issued to support certain letters of credit related to new work in the Middle East. In July 2015, approximately $8,326,000 was released from the restricted accounts and was returned to cash and cash equivalents.

Average days sales outstanding (“DSO”) at June 30, 2015 was 98 days compared to 87 days at June 30, 2014. DSO is a measure of our ability to collect our accounts receivable and is calculated by dividing the total of the period-end billed accounts receivable balance by average daily revenue (i.e., revenue for the quarter divided by 90 days). The increase in DSO in 2015 was adversely affected by the timing of payments from our clients in the Middle East, particularly Oman, which has been slower than payments from clients in other geographic regions of our operations.

Although we continually monitor our accounts receivable, we manage our operating cash flows by managing the working capital accounts in total, rather than by individual elements. The primary elements of our working capital are accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and deferred revenue. Accounts receivable consist of billing to our clients for our consulting fees and other job-related costs. Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of prepayments for various selling, general and administrative costs, such as insurance, rent, maintenance, etc. Accounts payable consist of obligations to third parties relating primarily to costs incurred for specific engagements, including pass-

Table of Contents

through costs such as subcontractor costs. Deferred revenue consists of payments received from clients in advance of work performed.

From year to year, the components of our working capital accounts may reflect significant changes. The changes are due primarily to the timing of cash receipts and payments within our working capital accounts combined with increases in our receivables and payables relative to the increase in our overall business, as well as our acquisition activity.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $13,443,000. We used $9,059,000 for the purchase of leasehold improvements, computers, office equipment, furniture and fixtures, primarily in connection with the relocation of our corporate headquarters to Philadelphia. We used $4,384,000 for the acquisition of IMS.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $25,021,000. We received $24,245,000 from borrowings under our various credit facilities and $750,000 from a low-interest Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation loan of which we have repaid $13,000. We also received $169,000 from purchases under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan and exercise of stock options. We paid $130,000 as dividends to noncontrolling interests.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP, including industry specific guidance. The core principle of the ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The ASU was to be effective for interim and annual periods commencing after December 15, 2016 and allows for both retrospective and prospective methods of adoption. On July 10, 2015, the FASB voted to extend the effective date by one year. Early adoption would be permitted as of the original effective date. The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption and assessing the impact of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

On April 7, 2015, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt the ASU after the effective date. The amendment will be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented will be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance.

Quarterly Fluctuations

Our operating results vary from period to period as a result of the timing of projects and assignments. We do not believe that our business is seasonal.

Backlog

We believe a strong indicator of our future performance is our backlog of uncompleted projects under contract or awarded. Our backlog represents management’s estimate of the amount of contracts and awards in hand that we expect to result in future consulting fee revenue. Project Management backlog is evaluated by management, on a project-by-project basis, and is reported for each period shown based upon the binding nature of the underlying contract, commitment or letter of intent, and other factors, including the economic, financial and regulatory viability of the project and the

Table of Contents

likelihood of the contract being extended, renewed or cancelled. Construction Claims backlog is based largely on management’s estimates of future revenue based on known construction claims assignments and historical results for new work. Because a significant number of construction claims may be awarded and completed within the same period, our actual construction claims revenue has historically exceeded backlog by a significant amount.

Our backlog is important to us in anticipating and planning for our operational needs. Backlog is not a measure defined in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and our methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodology used by other companies in determining their backlog.

At June 30, 2015, our backlog was $944,000,000 compared to $995,000,000 at March 31, 2015. At June 30, 2015, backlog attributable to future work in Libya amounted to approximately $39,000,000 was excluded from our backlog while at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, approximately $44,000,000 of backlog attributable to work in Libya was excluded. The reason for the removal of the Libya backlog was due to the uncertainty surrounding the Libya Receivable and the political instability in Libya. We estimate that $428,000,000, or 45.3%, of the backlog at June 30, 2015 will be recognized during the twelve months subsequent to June 30, 2015.

Although backlog reflects business that we consider to be firm, cancellations or scope adjustments may occur. Further, substantially all of our contracts with our clients may be terminated at will, in which case the client would only be obligated to us for services provided through the termination date. Historically, the impact of terminations and modifications on our realization of revenue from our backlog has not been significant, however, there can be no assurance that such changes will not be significant in the future. Furthermore, reductions of our backlog as a result of contract terminations and modifications may be offset by additions to the backlog.

We adjust backlog to reflect project cancellations, deferrals and revisions in scope and cost (both upward and downward) known at the reporting date. Future contract modifications or cancellations, however, may increase or reduce backlog and future revenue.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In connection with filing the Original Form 10-Q, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

Subsequent to that evaluation, in connection with the restatement discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the 2014 Annual Report on Form10-K/A, management re-evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2015. Management concluded that, due to the on-going remediation associated with the material weakness identified in our 2014 Annual Report on Form10-K/A, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2015 to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

For a more comprehensive discussion of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting identified by management as of December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, and the remedial measures undertaken to address these material weaknesses, investors are encouraged to review Item 9A, Disclosure Controls and Procedures, of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our remediation efforts were ongoing during the three months ended June 30, 2015, and, other than those remediation efforts described in “Management’s Remediation Initiatives” in Item 9A of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, there were no other material changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2015 that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

However, as explained in greater detail under Item 9A of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we have, or are in the process of, implementing a broad range of remedial procedures to address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. Our efforts to improve our internal controls are ongoing and focused on:

· Enhancing existing procedures and controls to more thoroughly assess unusual significant items

· Enhancing our close the books processes at the corporate and local levels to ensure effective management reviews and communication with accounting personnel over the accounting for estimates and non-routine transactions.

Therefore, while there were no changes, other than the matter discussed above, in our internal control over financial reporting in the three months ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, we continued monitoring the operation of these remedial measures through the date of this on Form 10-Q/A.
