NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income and cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are unaudited, include the accounts of AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all entries necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. These entries consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Please refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2006, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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 may differ from those estimates.

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 have been reclassified to conform to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 presentation.

2.	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No. 123R), Share-Based Payment, on January 1, 2006. Under SFAS No. 123R, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period.

On April 18, 2007, the Company amended the AMN Healthcare Equity Plan (“Equity Plan”), with stockholder approval, to increase the number of shares authorized under the plan by 3,000,000 (plus shares forfeited under the Company’s Stock Option Plan). In April 2007, 393,000 stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and 243,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were granted to employees, officers and directors of the Company under the Equity Plan. The SARs typically vest ratably over a three year period, with about one third of the awards vesting annually. The RSUs typically vest at the end of a three year vesting period, however, 33% of the awards may vest on the 13^th month anniversary of the grant date, and 34% on the 2^nd anniversary of the grant date, if certain performance targets are met. The Equity Plan expires on the tenth anniversary of the effective date.

Stock Options and SARs

Stock options entitle the holder to purchase, at the end of a vesting period, a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share set at the date of grant. SARs, granted under the Company’s Equity Plan, entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting period, shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the difference between the exercise price of the SAR, which is set at the date of grant, and the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise, as defined in the Equity Plan.

AMN HEALTHCARE SERVICES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

Stock-based compensation cost of stock options and SARs is measured based on several criteria including, but not limited to, the valuation model used and associated input factors such as expected term of the award, stock price volatility, dividend rate, risk-free interest rate and award forfeiture rate. The input factors to be used in the valuation model are based on subjective future expectations combined with management judgment. The Company estimates the fair value of awards granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model. After consideration of both its implied volatility and historical volatility, the Company determined its historical volatility to be the most accurate estimate of future volatility and therefore utilizes this measure. The Company estimates the expected term based on historical exercise patterns, and based the dividend yield assumption on historical dividend payouts, which is zero. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the Company’s equity awards. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting award forfeitures and records stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. The fair value of awards granted is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which are the vesting periods.

Stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 for SARs granted was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on the following assumptions (annualized percentages):


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2007		Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
Expected term	3.8 years		4.5 years
Risk-free interest rate	4.5	%	5.1	%
Volatility	31	%	46	%
Dividend yield	0	%	0	%

The weighted average grant date fair value of the 393,000 SARs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $7.56 per SAR, and the weighted average grant date fair value of SARs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $8.02 per SAR. As of June 30, 2007, there was $8.7 million of pre tax total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and SARs, which will be adjusted for future changes in forfeitures. The Company expects to recognize such cost over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.

The following table summarizes stock options and SARs activity for the six months ended June 30, 2007:


	Number of Shares (in thousands)		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding at January 1, 2007	2,964		$	15.93
Granted	393		$	24.94
Exercised	(209	)	$	12.76
Cancelled/forfeited/expired	(21	)	$	19.15

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs, granted under the Company’s Equity Plan, entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting period, a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock. Stock-based compensation cost of RSUs is measured by the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The weighted average grant date intrinsic value was $24.95 per RSU for the 243,000 RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting award forfeitures and records stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. The grant date intrinsic value of awards granted is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which are the vesting periods.

The following table summarizes RSUs activity for non-vested awards for the six months ended June 30, 2007:


	Number of Shares (in thousands)		Weighted Average Grant Date Intrinsic Value
Unvested at January 1, 2007	255		$	18.08
Granted	243		$	24.95
Vested	(84	)	$	18.03
Cancelled/forfeited/expired	(7	)	$	19.91

Unvested at June 30, 2007	407		$	22.16

As of June 30, 2007, there was $8.2 million of pre tax total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs, which will be adjusted for future changes in forfeitures. The Company expects to recognize such cost over a period of 2.5 years.

Stock-Based Compensation under SFAS No. 123R

The following table shows the total stock-based compensation expense, related to all of the Company’s equity awards, recognized for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, in accordance with SFAS No. 123R (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2007			2006			2007			2006
Stock-based employee compensation before tax	$	2,159		$	1,791		$	3,954		$	3,158
Related income tax benefit		(868	)		(585	)		(1,573	)		(1,129	)

Stock-based employee compensation, net of tax	$	1,291		$	1,206		$	2,381		$	2,029

For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R resulted in cash flows from financing activities of $3,274,000 and 2,160,000, respectively, for excess tax benefits related to equity awards exercised and vested during the period.

3.	NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the effects of potentially dilutive common stock-based equity instruments.

Common stock-based equity instruments equivalent to 630,000 and 632,000 shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, respectively, and 930,000 and 1,236,000 shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, were not included in the calculations of diluted net income per common share because the effect of these instruments was anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands, except per share amounts):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Net income	$	9,246	$	7,271	$	17,440	$	15,572

Net income per common share—diluted	$	0.26	$	0.21	$	0.49	$	0.45

4.	COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income, net gains and losses on derivative contracts and foreign currency translation adjustments. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, comprehensive income was $9,538,000 and $8,007,000 and included a $270,000 and $736,000 unrealized gain on interest rate swap arrangements, net of tax, and a $22,000 and $0 foreign currency translation adjustment gain, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, comprehensive income was $17,467,000 and $17,445,000 and included a $13,000 and $1,887,000 unrealized gain on interest rate swap arrangements, net of tax, respectively, and a $14,000 and ($14,000) foreign currency translation adjustment gain (loss), respectively.

The carrying amount of goodwill was $243,680,000 and $240,719,000 as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Of the $3.0 million increase in goodwill, $2.7 million was related to the acquisition of Lifework, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Rx Pro Health”) in May 2007, and the remainder was related to the tax related purchase accounting adjustments recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Aggregate amortization expense for the intangible assets presented in the above table was $833,000 and $761,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively and $1,593,000 and $1,533,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Estimated future aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets as of June 30, 2007 is as follows (in thousands):

6.	SEGMENT INFORMATION

SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, establishes annual and interim reporting standards for an enterprise’s operating segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major customers. With the acquisition of The MHA Group, Inc. (“MHA”) in November 2005, the Company disclosed two reportable segments: nurse and allied healthcare staffing and physician staffing. Effective April 1, 2006, the Company discloses three reportable segments: nurse and allied healthcare staffing, locum tenens (temporary physicians) staffing and physician permanent placement services.

The Company’s management relies on internal management reporting processes that provide revenue and segment operating income for making financial decisions and allocating resources. Segment operating income includes income from operations before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and amortization of stock-based compensation expense. Management believes that segment operating income is an appropriate measure of evaluating the operational performance of the Company’s segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income from operations or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s management does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset information; accordingly, asset information by segment is not prepared or disclosed. The information in the following table is derived from the segments’ internal financial information as used for corporate management purposes.

The following table provides a reconciliation of revenue and segment operating income by reportable segment to consolidated results (in thousands):

7.	ACQUISITION

On May 21, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of Rx Pro Health, a leading provider of pharmacy staffing, workforce technology solutions, and online educational services for hospital-based and retail pharmacies and pharmaceutical companies. The strategic combination has broadened the type of services the Company offers

and will allow the Company to provide a more comprehensive staffing solution to clients. Total purchase price was $5.5 million, which included $5.2 million cash consideration and $0.3 million of direct transaction costs. The acquisition agreement also provides for annual performance-based contingent earn-out payments totaling up to $12 million over the next three years. The allocation of the purchase price consisted of $0.1 million of net assets acquired, $2.2 million of deferred tax liabilities assumed, $2.7 million of goodwill and $4.9 million of identified intangible assets. The intangible assets included the fair value of trademarks, tradenames, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, online courses, staffing databases and acquired technology. The weighted average useful life of the intangible assets is approximately 10 years. The acquisition was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Rx Pro Health are included in the nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

8.	INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation, the Company recognized an increase of $532,000 to reserves for uncertain tax positions, which was accounted for as a decrease to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings. As of the date of adoption, the liability for income taxes associated with uncertain tax positions totaled $6,172,000, including interest and penalties. If recognized, approximately $3,290,000 of the $6,172,000 FIN 48 liability would affect the Company’s effective tax rate, and the remaining $2,882,000 would be treated as a reduction to goodwill. Of the total liability of $6,172,000, $3,531,000 relates to uncertain tax positions taken in fiscal years resulting in net operating losses in such years, therefore the liability was presented as a reduction of the related deferred tax asset. The Company is projecting that it will fully utilize the net operating losses in fiscal 2007. In addition, the Company has sufficient taxable income through June 30, 2007 to fully utilize its net operating losses. Therefore, this $3,531,000 of uncertain tax positions has been recorded to the FIN 48 liability, and no longer results in a reduction to the deferred tax asset at June 30, 2007.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of January 1, 2007, the Company has approximately $426,000 of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and in various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years for 2004 and 2005 are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2002, although carryforward attributes that were generated prior to 2002 may still be adjusted upon examination by the IRS if they either have been or will be utilized in a future period.

The Company does not foresee material changes to its gross FIN 48 liability within the next twelve months.

9.	SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 10, 2007, the Company announced that it intended to repurchase up to 1 million shares of its outstanding common stock in the open market commencing in the third quarter of 2007.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are “forward-looking statements.” See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We are the largest healthcare staffing company in the United States. As the largest nationwide provider of travel nurse staffing services, locum tenens (temporary physician staffing) and physician permanent placement services and a leading provider of allied healthcare professionals, we recruit physicians, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals (our “healthcare professionals”) nationally and internationally and place them on assignments of variable lengths and in permanent positions at acute-care hospitals, physician practice groups and other healthcare facilities throughout the United States.

For the three months ended June 30, 2007, we recorded revenue of $293.9 million, as compared to revenue of $261.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. We recorded net income of $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to net income of $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, we recorded revenue of $577.9 million, as compared to revenue of $515.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. We recorded net income of $17.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to net income of $15.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Our staffing services are marketed primarily to two distinct customer groups: (1) healthcare professionals and (2) hospitals, healthcare facilities, and physician practice groups. We use a multi-brand recruiting strategy to enhance our ability to successfully attract healthcare professionals in the United States and internationally. We market our staffing opportunities to healthcare professionals under recruitment brands that include American Mobile Healthcare^®, Medical Express^SM, NurseChoice^® InDemand, NursesRx^®, Preferred Healthcare Staffing^®, Med Travelers^SM, Rx Pro Health^SM, RN Demand^®, RN Extend^SM, O’Grady Peyton International^®, Staff Care^® and Merritt, Hawkins & Associates^®. Each brand has a distinct clinician focus, market strength and brand reputation.

At the end of June 30, 2007, we had healthcare professionals on assignment at over 2,000 different clients. We provide services mainly to acute-care and sub-acute healthcare facilities, physician groups, dialysis centers, clinics, schools, and retail and mail-order pharmacies. We market our travel nursing services to hospitals and healthcare facilities generally under one brand, AMN Healthcare^®, as a single staffing provider with access to healthcare professionals from several nurse recruitment brands. We market our locum tenens and physician permanent placement services under the brand names Staff Care and Merritt, Hawkins & Associates, respectively, to hospital and healthcare facilities and physician staffing groups. Both were acquired in November 2005 through our purchase of The MHA Group, Inc., which we refer to as “MHA”. We market our allied healthcare staffing services to hospitals and healthcare facilities generally under the brand name Med Travelers and AMN Healthcare, and to retail and mail-order pharmacies under the brand name Rx Pro Health, which we acquired in May 2007.

Our clients utilize our temporary healthcare staffing services to cost-effectively manage both short-term and long-term shortages in their staff due to a variety of circumstances, including a lack of qualified, specialized local healthcare professionals, attrition, leave schedules, new unit openings, seasonal patient census variations and to identify candidates for permanent positions. In addition to providing continuity of care and quality patient care, we believe hospitals, healthcare facilities and our other clients contract with us due to our access to a large national network of skilled temporary and permanent healthcare professionals, our ability to meet their specific staffing needs, our flexible staffing assignment lengths and our reliable and superior customer service.

Physicians, nurses and allied healthcare professionals choose temporary assignments for a wide variety of reasons that include: seeking flexible work opportunities, exploring different areas of the country, building their clinical skills and resume by working at prestigious healthcare facilities, escaping the demands and political environment of working as permanent staff, working through life and career transitions, and as a means of access into a permanent staff position with our clients.

Our large number of hospital, healthcare facility and other clients provides us with the opportunity to offer temporary positions typically in all 50 states and in a variety of work environments and clinical settings. In addition, we provide our temporary healthcare professionals with an attractive benefit package that may include free or subsidized housing, free or reimbursed travel, competitive wages, professional development opportunities, professional liability insurance, and, for employed professionals, a 401(k) plan, and health insurance. We believe that we attract temporary healthcare professionals due to our long-standing reputation for providing a high level of service, our numerous job opportunities, our benefit packages, our innovative marketing programs and word-of-mouth referrals from our thousands of current and former healthcare professionals.

Recent Trends

Temporary healthcare staffing industry revenues were forecasted to grow at a compounded annual rate of approximately 8% from 1997 through 2008, according to industry estimates. The industry has achieved positive annual growth since 1997, except in the years 2003 and 2004. Industry revenues for 2007 are expected to grow by 7% to $11.4 billion as compared to 2006. The market segments within the temporary healthcare staffing industry in which we provide staffing services include travel nursing ($2.5 billion in total sales), locum tenens ($1.6 billion in total sales) and allied healthcare ($3.2 billion in total sales). According to estimates prepared by Staffing Industry Analysts, projected growth rates for these segments in 2007 are 9% for travel nursing, 14% for locum tenens and 11% for allied healthcare.

The nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment, our largest reporting segment, experienced a strong demand and tight supply environment during 2005 and early 2006. During the last quarter of 2006 and currently, we are experiencing a lessening of demand in certain regions and specialties as reported generally in the industry. The lower demand is being driven by several factors such as lower census and admission levels, the aggressive hiring of new graduates and efforts by hospitals to increase efforts on recruiting permanent labor.

The supply market continues to be constrained relative to the demands of our healthcare facility clients. Internationally trained nurses represent an important supply of nurses, and roughly 15% of newly licensed nurses are foreign-trained. While roughly 90% of our nurses are trained in the United States, we recruit nurses from international channels through our O’Grady Peyton International brand to meet our facility clients’ long-term staffing needs. Our continued utilization of this international supply channel is reliant upon an increase or exemption from current permanent immigrant visa quotas. There are currently no permanent immigrant visas available for nurses overseas as a result of these quotas. Additionally, we have experienced fluctuations in direct costs associated with the placement of temporary nurse and allied professionals, due in part to housing costs, which have increased in certain geographic regions of the U.S.

Locum tenens physicians are used by hospitals, healthcare facilities and physician practice groups to fill temporary vacancies created by vacations and leave schedules, and increasingly, to bridge the gap while seeking permanent candidates. Staffing Industry Analysts reports the locum tenens market to be the fastest-growing segment of the healthcare staffing industry. The demand environment for locum tenens services continues to be strong, and socioeconomic factors, such as increased physician emphasis on job and lifestyle flexibility, suggest a growing number of physicians are embracing locum tenens as a practice style.

The physician permanent placement services segment also continues to experience an environment in which demand exceeds supply. Physicians are significant drivers of revenue, influencing many hospitals, healthcare facilities and physician practice groups to devote the resources necessary to recruit them. While this creates significant competition for the limited supply of physicians, our national reach and brand recognition position us well in this environment.

The physician permanent placement market has significant growth potential due to client demand for physicians that enable our clients to generate revenue. This demand and the significant overlap of clients seeking both temporary and permanent placement services provides us an opportunity to cross-sell these services for physicians.

Critical Accounting Principles and Estimates

We have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to asset impairment, accruals for self-insurance and compensation and related benefits, allowance for doubtful accounts, contingencies and litigation and share-based payments. We state these accounting policies in the notes to the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in relevant sections in this discussion and analysis. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We have recorded goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets resulting from our past acquisitions. Commencing with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002, we ceased amortizing goodwill and have performed annual impairment analyses each year to assess the recoverability of the goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. We performed the most recent annual impairment test on October 31, 2006 and determined there was no impairment. No events have occurred subsequent to October 31, 2006 that indicate impairment may have occurred.

SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives continue to be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, we analyze our amortizable intangible assets for impairment annually as well as whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

If we are required to record an impairment charge in the future, it could have an adverse impact on our results of operations. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had $243.7 million and $240.7 million, respectively, of goodwill, net of accumulated amortization, and $115.4 million and $112.1 million, respectively, of net intangible assets recorded on our consolidated balance sheets. The increases in goodwill and intangible assets were primarily due to the acquisition of Lifework, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Rx Pro Health”) in May 2007.

Professional Liability Reserve

We maintain an accrual for professional liability self-insured retention limits, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other long term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the adequacy of this accrual by evaluating our historical experience and trends, loss reserves established by our insurance carriers, management and third party administrators, as well

as through the use of independent actuarial studies. For the nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment, we obtain updated actuarial studies on a regular basis that use our historical claims data and industry data to determine the appropriate reserves for incurred, but not reported, professional liability claims for each year, with reserves for reported claims based upon loss reserves established by management and our third party administrators. For the locum tenens staffing segment, we obtain updated actuarial studies on a regular basis that primarily utilize industry data to determine the appropriate reserves for both reported claims and incurred, but not reported, claims. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had $15.4 million and $14.5 million, respectively, accrued for professional liability retention, of which $2.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively, was classified as a current liability. The increase in the professional liability accrual was primarily related to an increase in expected claims incurred, but not reported in our locum tenens segment during the six months ended June 30, 2007, partially offset by payments made during the period.

Self-Insured Health Insurance Claims Reserve

We maintain an accrual for incurred, but not reported, claims arising from self-insured health benefits we provide to our temporary nurse and allied healthcare professionals and corporate employees, which is included in accrued compensation and benefits in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the adequacy of this accrual by evaluating our historical experience and trends related to both health insurance claims and payments, information provided to us by our insurance broker and third party administrator and industry experience and trends. If such information indicates that our accruals are overstated or understated, we reduce or provide for additional accruals. Our accrual at June 30, 2007 was based on (i) a monthly average of our actual historical health insurance claim amounts and (ii) the average period of time from the date the claim is incurred to the date that it is reported to us and paid. We believe this is the best estimate of the amount of incurred, but not reported, self-insured health benefit claims. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had $3.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively, accrued for incurred, but not reported health insurance claims. The increase in the accrual was primarily due to a combination of an increase in the number of plan participants due to the inclusion of corporate employees beginning January 1, 2007 and unfavorable trends in insurance claims paid. Historically, our accrual for health insurance has been adequate to provide for incurred claims and has fluctuated with increases or decreases in the average number of plan participants, changes in our claims experience and changes in the reporting and payment processing time for claims.

Workers Compensation Reserve

We maintain an accrual for workers compensation self-insured retention limits, which is included in accrued compensation and benefits and other long term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the adequacy of these accruals by evaluating our historical experience and trends, loss reserves established by our insurance carriers and third party administrators, as well as through the use of independent actuarial studies. We obtain updated actuarial studies on a semi-annual basis that use our payroll and actual claims data, as well as industry data, to determine the appropriate reserve both for reported claims and incurred, but not reported, claims for each policy year. The actuarial study for workers compensation provides us with the estimated losses for prior policy years and an estimated percentage of payroll compensation to be accrued for the current year. We record our accruals based on the amounts provided in the actuarial study, and we believe this is the best estimate of our liability for reported claims and incurred, but not reported, claims. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had $9.2 million and $9.3 million, respectively, accrued for workers compensation claims, of which $2.7 million and $2.8 million, respectively, was classified as a current liability.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated credit losses resulting from collection risks, including the inability of our customers to make required payments. This results in a provision for bad debt expense. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reported as a reduction of accounts receivable in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the adequacy of this allowance by evaluating historical delinquency and write-off trends, the financial condition and credit risk and histories of each customer, historical payment trends and current economic conditions. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be provided. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our allowance for doubtful accounts was $2.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to positive trends in our client collections experience.

Contingent Liabilities

We are subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of our business. Some of these matters include payroll and employee-related matters and investigations by governmental agencies regarding our employment practices. As we become aware of such claims and legal actions, we provide accruals if the exposures are probable and estimable. If an adverse outcome of such claims and legal actions is reasonably possible, we assess materiality and provide disclosure, as appropriate. We may also become subject to claims, governmental inquiries and investigations, and legal actions relating to services provided by our temporary healthcare professionals, and we maintain accruals for these matters if the amounts are probable and estimable. We currently are not aware of any such pending or threatened litigation that would be considered reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Share-Based Payments

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of revised SFAS No. 123 (SFAS No. 123R), Share-Based Payment, which established accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The measurement of stock based compensation cost is based on several criteria including, but not limited to, the valuation model used and associated input factors such as expected term of the award, our stock price volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and award forfeiture rate. The input factors to be used in the valuation model are based on subjective future expectations combined with management judgment. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock appreciation rights granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model and the assumptions shown in Note 2 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting equity award forfeitures and record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. We estimate the expected term, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate assumptions consistent with the methodologies used prior to January 1, 2006; however the volatility of our common stock at the date of grant was previously based on a combination of our historical volatility rate and the volatility rate of comparable companies. The fair value of equity awards granted is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which are the vesting periods. If factors change, we may decide to use different assumptions under the Black-Scholes valuation model in the future, which could materially affect our net income and earnings per share.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain condensed consolidated statements of operations data as a percentage of our revenue. Our results of operations include three reportable segments: (1) nurse and allied healthcare staffing; (2) locum tenens staffing; and (3) physician permanent placement services.

Comparison of Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2006

Revenue. Revenue increased 13%, to $293.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $261.2 million for the same period in 2006, primarily due to an increase in the average number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment and an increase in average bill rates.

Nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment revenue increased 11%, to $201.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $181.5 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $19.8 million increase, $11.9 million was attributable to an increase in the average number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment, $5.6 million was attributable to the increase in revenue generated per temporary healthcare professional due primarily to an increase in the average bill rates charged to hospital and healthcare facility clients, $1.4 million was attributable to a shift in the mix of temporary healthcare professionals working on flat rate contracts to hours and days worked contracts, and $0.9 million was attributable to the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007.

Locum tenens staffing segment revenue increased 19%, to $79.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $67.0 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $12.9 million increase, $11.1 million was attributable to an increase in the number of days filled by healthcare professionals during the three months ended June 30, 2007, and $1.8 million was attributable to a combination of bill rate increases and a shift in the mix of healthcare specialties worked.

Physician permanent placement services segment revenue was $12.7 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased 15%, to $219.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $191.2 million for the same period in 2006, primarily due to an increase in compensation provided to our temporary healthcare professionals and an increase in housing costs.

Nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment cost of revenue increased 13%, to $154.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $137.0 million for the same period in 2006.

Locum tenens staffing segment cost of revenue increased 21%, to $59.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $49.1 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $10.4 million increase, $8.2 million was attributable to an increase in the number of days filled by healthcare professionals during the three months ended June 30, 2007, with the remaining $2.2 million attributable to a combination of an increase in compensation provided to our healthcare professionals and a shift in the mix of physician specialties worked.

Physician permanent placement services segment cost of revenue increased 2%, to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $5.0 million for the same period in 2006.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 7%, to $75.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $70.0 million for the same period in 2006, representing gross margins of 25.5% and 26.8%, respectively. Gross margin by reportable segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 23.3% and 24.5% for nurse and allied healthcare staffing, 25.6% and 26.7% for locum tenens staffing and 60.0% and 60.6% for physician permanent placement services, respectively. The decrease in the nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment gross margin was primarily attributable to an increase in housing costs, and the decrease in the locum tenens staffing segment gross margin was primarily attributable to a shift in the mix of physician specialties.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 2%, to $53.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $52.4 million for the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in employee expenses primarily due to increased headcount and additional expenses since the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007. The increases were partially offset by decreases in professional liability insurance costs, professional services expense, marketing and international recruiting expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses by reportable segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, were $35.2 million and $35.0 million for nurse and allied healthcare staffing, $13.5 million and $12.6 million for locum tenens staffing and $4.8 million for both periods for physician permanent placement services.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Amortization expense was $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. Depreciation expense increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $1.7 million for the same period in 2006, with the increase primary attributable to additional internally developed software.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, was $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 2006. The $1.2 million decrease was primarily attributable to lower average debt outstanding balance for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased to $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $3.5 million for the same period in 2006, reflecting effective income tax rates of 40.2% and 32.7% for these periods, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to a $0.8 million estimated tax benefit recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2006 from the adjustment of deferred taxes due to enacted Texas tax legislation.

Comparison of Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2006

Revenue. Revenue increased 12%, to $577.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $515.4 million for the same period in 2006, primarily due to an increase in the average number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment and an increase in average bill rates.

Nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment revenue increased 12%, to $401.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $359.2 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $42.1 million increase, $23.4 million was attributable to an increase in the average number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment, $14.7 million was attributable to the increase in revenue generated per temporary healthcare professional due primarily to an increase in the average bill rates charged to hospital and healthcare facility clients, $3.1 million was attributable to a shift in the mix of temporary healthcare professionals working on flat rate contracts to hours and days worked contracts, and $0.9 million was attributable to the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007.

Locum tenens staffing segment revenue increased 15%, to $151.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $131.5 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $19.8 million increase, $15.1 million was attributable to an increase in the number of days filled by healthcare professionals during the six months ended June 30, 2007, and $4.7 million was attributable to a combination of bill rate increases and a shift in the mix of healthcare specialties worked.

Physician permanent placement services segment revenue increased 2%, to $25.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $24.7 million for the same period in 2006.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased 14%, to $430.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $377.1 million for the same period in 2006, primarily due to an increase in compensation provided to our temporary healthcare professionals and an increase in housing and health insurance costs.

Nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment cost of revenue increased 14%, to $307.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $270.7 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $37.1 million increase, $17.6 million was attributable to the increase in the average number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment, $16.4 million was attributable to net increases in compensation, primarily related to wages, housing and health insurance, provided to our temporary healthcare professionals, $2.6 million was attributable to a shift in the mix of temporary healthcare professionals working on flat rate contracts to hours and days worked contracts, and $0.5 million was attributable to the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007.

Locum tenens staffing segment cost of revenue increased 17%, to $112.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $96.6 million for the same period in 2006. Of the $16.3 million increase, $11.2 million was attributable to an increase in the number of days filled by healthcare professionals during the six months ended June 30, 2007, with the remaining $5.1 million attributable to an increase in compensation provided to our healthcare professionals and a shift in the mix of physician specialties worked.

Physician permanent placement services segment cost of revenue decreased 1%, to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $9.8 million for the same period in 2006.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 7%, to $147.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $138.3 million for the same period in 2006, representing gross margins of 25.5% and 26.8%, respectively. Gross margin by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 23.3% and 24.6% for nurse and allied healthcare staffing, 25.4% and 26.5% for locum tenens staffing and 61.6% and 60.4% for physician permanent placement services, respectively. The decrease in the nurse and allied healthcare staffing segment gross margin was primarily attributable to an increase in housing costs and health insurance claims, and the decrease in the locum tenens staffing segment gross margin was primarily attributable to a shift in the mix of physician specialties.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 6%, to $106.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $100.2 million for the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in employee expenses due to increased headcount, office expenses, stock-based compensation expense and additional expenses since the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007. The increases were partially offset by decreases in professional liability insurance costs and professional services, marketing and international recruiting expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, were $69.8 million and $65.4 million for nurse and allied healthcare staffing, $27.5 million and $25.3 million for locum tenens staffing and $9.3 million and $9.5 million for physician permanent placement services.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Amortization expense increased to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $1.5 million for the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to the amortization of identifiable amortizable intangible assets recorded as a result of the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007. Depreciation expense increased to $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $3.5 million for the same period in 2006, with the increase primary attributable to additional internally developed software.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, was $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to $8.5 million for the same period in 2006. The $2.0 million decrease was primarily attributable to lower average debt outstanding balance for the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006, and additional imputed interest expense recorded in six months ended June 30, 2006 related to the acquisition of MHA.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased to $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $9.0 million for the same period in 2006, reflecting effective income tax rates of 39.8% and 36.6% for these periods, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to a $0.8 million estimated tax benefit recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the adjustment of deferred taxes due to enacted Texas tax legislation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our primary liquidity requirements have been for acquisitions, working capital requirements and debt service under our credit facility. We have funded these requirements through internally generated cash flow and funds borrowed under our credit facility. At June 30, 2007, $167.3 million was outstanding under our credit facility. We believe that cash generated from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. We expect to be able to finance future acquisitions either with cash provided from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, bank loans, debt or equity offerings, or some combination of the foregoing. The following discussion provides further details of our liquidity and capital resources.

Operating Activities:

Historically, our principal working capital need has been for accounts receivable. At June 30, 2007, our days sales outstanding (“DSO”) was 60 days. At June 30, 2006, our DSO was 55 days and at December 31, 2006, our DSO was 63 days. The increase in DSO compared to June 30, 2006 was due in part to delays in our cash receipt cycle as a result of an increase in the number of our nurse and allied healthcare clients utilizing vendor management arrangements. The decrease in DSO compared to December 31, 2006 was due primarily to an improvement in collection efforts during the six months ended June 30, 2007. Our principal sources of cash to fund our working capital needs are cash generated from operating activities and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Net cash provided by operations decreased $8.6 million from $42.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 to $33.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease in net cash provided by operations was primarily driven by decreases in accrued compensation and benefits, accounts payable and other accrued expenses, increases in prepaid expenses, deposits and other assets, partially offset by income tax related increases and increased earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Investing Activities:

Our business acquisition expenditures were $5.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $36.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006, the majority of which related to the cash portion of the earnout payment for our November 2005 acquisition of MHA. Of the $5.5 million of expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2007, we paid $5.2 million cash consideration for the acquisition of Rx Pro Health in May 2007, which was paid with cash provided by operations. The remaining $0.3 million related to transaction costs incurred for the acquisition.

We continue to have relatively low capital investment requirements. Capital expenditures were $4.6 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the first six months of 2007, our capital expenditures were $3.6 million for purchased and internally developed software and $1.0 million for computers, furniture and equipment and other expenditures. We expect our future capital expenditure requirements to be similar to those during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Financing Activities:

Our credit facility, the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), provides for, among other things, a $75.0 million secured revolving credit facility, a $30.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, a $15.0 million swing-line sub-facility, all maturing in November 2010, and a $235.0 million secured term loan facility maturing in November 2011. The secured term loan facility was used primarily to fund our acquisition of MHA in November 2005, pay off then-existing borrowings, and repurchase shares of our common stock in May 2006.

The revolving credit facility portion of our Credit Agreement carries an unused fee of between 0.5% and 0.375% per annum based on our then current leverage ratio, and there are no mandatory reductions in the revolving commitment under the revolving credit facility. Borrowings under this revolving credit facility bear interest at floating rates based upon either a LIBOR or a prime interest rate option selected by us, plus a spread of 1.50% to 2.25% and 0.50% to 1.25%, respectively, to be determined based on our then current leverage ratio. Amounts available under our revolving credit facility may be used for working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions and general corporate purposes, subject to various limitations.

The term loan portion of our Credit Agreement is subject to quarterly amortization of principal (in equal installments), with an amount equal to 1.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the facility payable quarterly through September 30, 2007 (except in the case of the initial quarterly payment on June 30, 2006 of 2.5%) and 2.5% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the facility payable quarterly from December 31, 2007 through September 30, 2010 with any remaining amounts payable in 2011. The term loan portion of our credit facility bears interest, at our option, at either LIBOR plus 1.75% or the Base Rate plus 0.75%. Voluntary prepayments of the term loan portion of the credit facility are applied as we may elect, including ratably to the remaining quarterly principal amortization payments. In March and June 2007, we made the quarterly principal amortization payments of $2.3 million each, which were reduced from the original contractual amount due to the application of the previous voluntary prepayments.

We are required to make additional mandatory prepayments on the term loan with the proceeds of asset dispositions, extraordinary receipts, debt issuances and certain equity issuances. We also are required to make mandatory prepayments on the term loan within ninety days after the end of each fiscal year, which commenced in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, in an amount equal to 50% of our excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement), less any voluntary prepayments made during the fiscal year. These mandatory prepayment amounts, if any, are applied ratably to the remaining quarterly amortization payments. The voluntary prepayments made throughout the year satisfied this additional prepayment requirement for the year ended December 31, 2006.

We are required to maintain a maximum leverage ratio, based on EBITDA and funded indebtedness as defined in the Credit Agreement, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal

quarter ending June 30, 2007, decreasing throughout the term of the agreement to ultimately arrive at a ratio of 2.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2009 and thereafter. We are also required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, based on EBITDA and debt and interest payments as defined in the Credit Agreement, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of not less than 1.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2007, decreasing throughout the term of the agreement to ultimately arrive at a ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2008 and thereafter. We are also subject to limitations on the amount of our annual capital expenditures and on the amount of consolidated total assets and consolidated EBITDA that may be owned or attributable to our foreign subsidiaries. We were in compliance with these requirements at June 30, 2007.

Under our Credit Agreement, our subsidiaries are not permitted to pay dividends or distributions to us, except for certain permitted dividends and distributions, including those related to taxes, certain reporting obligations under federal and state law and certain other ordinary course operating expenses, subject to the limitations contained in our Credit Agreement.

We are also required to maintain interest rate protection on at least 50% of the term loan portion of our Credit Agreement beginning November 2006 until May 2009. As of June 30, 2007, we maintained five interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $105 million. We pay fixed rates ranging from 4.09% to 4.95% under these agreements and receive a floating three-month LIBOR. The agreements expire beginning September 2007 through December 2009, and no initial investments were made to enter into these agreements.

At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the interest rate swap agreements had a fair value of $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, which is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We have formally documented the hedging relationships and account for these arrangements as cash flow hedges.

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our credit facility also served to collateralize certain letters of credit aggregating $18.0 million and $19.5 million, respectively, issued by us in the normal course of business.

Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results and Seasonality

Due to the regional and seasonal fluctuations in the hospital patient census and staffing needs of our hospital, healthcare facility and other clients and due to the seasonal preferences for destinations of our temporary healthcare professionals, revenue, earnings and the number of temporary healthcare professionals on assignment are subject to moderate seasonal fluctuations. Many of our hospital and healthcare facility clients are located in areas that experience seasonal fluctuations in population during the winter and summer months. These facilities adjust their staffing levels to accommodate the change in this seasonal demand and many of these facilities utilize temporary healthcare professionals to satisfy these seasonal staffing needs. This historical seasonality of revenue and earnings may vary due to a variety of factors and the results of any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other quarter or for any year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures related to fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 157 beginning January 1, 2008, and we do not expect the adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (SFAS No. 159), The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. This statement permits, but does not require, entities to measure certain financial instruments

and other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected should be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, and cannot be adopted early unless SFAS No. 157 is also adopted. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 159 beginning January 1, 2008, and we do not expect the adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. We do not believe that we have any material market risk exposure with respect to derivative or other financial instruments.

During 2007 and 2006, our primary exposure to market risk was interest rate risk associated with our debt instruments. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further description of our debt instruments. Excluding the effect of our interest rate swap arrangements, a 1% change in interest rates on our variable rate debt would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating approximately $1.0 million and $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Considering the effect of our interest rate swap arrangements, a 1% change in interest rates on our variable rate debt would have resulted in interest expense fluctuating approximately $0.4 million and $0.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Our international operations create exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risks. We believe that our foreign currency risk is immaterial.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007 were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
