Contract Receivables [Abstract]

Contract Receivables

Note 3. Contract Receivables

Contract receivables consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2013			December 31, 2012
Billed	$	130,841		$	135,917
Unbilled		78,534			70,469
Allowance for doubtful accounts		(1,535	)		(1,448	)

Contract receivables, net	$	207,840		$	204,938

Contract receivables, net of the established allowance, are stated at amounts expected to be realized in future periods. Unbilled receivables result from revenue that has been earned in advance of billing. Unbilled receivables can be invoiced at contractually defined intervals or milestones, as well as upon completion of the contract or government audits. The Company anticipates that the majority of unbilled receivables will be substantially billed and collected within one year, and therefore, classifies them as current assets in accordance with industry practice.

The Company considers a number of factors in its estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts, including the customer’s financial condition, historical collection experience, and other factors that may bear on collectability of the receivables. The Company writes off contract receivables when such amounts are determined to be uncollectible. Losses have historically been within management’s expectations.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for claims held for amounts due a entity, excluding financing receivables. Examples include, but are not limited to, trade accounts receivables, notes receivables, loans receivables. Includes disclosure for allowance for credit losses.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 8. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing reported net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS considers the potential dilution that could occur if common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into stock. The difference between the basic and diluted weighted-average equivalent shares with respect to the Company’s EPS calculation is due entirely to the assumed exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock and RSUs. The dilutive effect of stock options and RSUs excludes shares that would be anti-dilutive to the calculation of EPS if included. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, approximately 0.4 million anti-dilutive weighted-average shares have been excluded from the calculation of EPS. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, less than 0.1 million anti-dilutive weighted-average shares were excluded from the calculation of EPS. The dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, and RSU awards for each period reported is summarized below:

Litigation and Claims

The Company is involved in various legal matters and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While these matters and proceedings cause it to incur costs, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, the Company currently believes that any ultimate liability arising out of these matters and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Road Home Contract

Although no legal proceeding has been commenced, the Company has received correspondence from the Office of Community Development of the State of Louisiana, claiming that the Company is responsible for the overpayment of Road Home program grant funds to some grant applicants. The Company anticipates that it will receive additional correspondence from the Office of Community Development related to the claim. As of March 31, 2013, the total claim received by the Company was approximately $44 million. The Company believes this claim has no merit, intends to vigorously defend its position, and has therefore not recorded a liability as of March 31, 2013.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract]

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

Note 6. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Unrecognized compensation expense of $22.8 million as of March 31, 2013, related to unvested stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately three years. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company granted approximately 0.4 million shares in the form of equity compensation, including stock options, and RSUs. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had approximately 0.4 million shares available to grant under its equity compensation plan.

In the first quarter of 2013, in addition to stock options, restricted stock, and RSUs, the Company granted Cash Settled RSUs (“CSRSUs”) for the first time. The CSRSUs vest annually over a four-year vesting term, and are settled only in cash payments. The cash payment is based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price at the vesting date, calculated by multiplying the number of CSRSUs vested, by the Company’s closing stock price on the vesting date. The payment is subject to a maximum payment cap and a minimum payment floor. The Company treats these awards as liability classified awards, and therefore accounts for them at fair value. These awards have no impact to the shares available for grant under the Company’s 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan, and have no impact to the calculated shares used in earnings per share calculations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company awarded 0.2 million CSRSUs to its employees. The weighted-average grant date fair value of CSRSUs was $27.03 per share. Compensation expense related to CSRSUs computed under the fair value method for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was less than $0.1 million, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $27.20 per share as of March 31, 2013. The unrecognized expense related to CSRSUs totaled approximately $4.8 million. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.9 years.

The aggregate intrinsic value of CSRSUs at March 31, 2013 that are expected to vest was approximately $4.8 million.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of ICF International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013, and March 31, 2012. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. Certain immaterial amounts in the 2012 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentation. The Company believes the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate their estimated fair values at March 31, 2013, due to their short maturities. The Company recognizes activity related to its forward contract agreements at fair value. At March 31, 2013, the impact of the hedges to the consolidated financial statements was immaterial. The Company believes the carrying value of the lines of credit payable approximate the estimated fair value for debt with similar terms, interest rates, and remaining maturities currently available to companies with similar credit ratings at March 31, 2013. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2013.

Long-Term Debt

Long-Term Debt [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt

Note 5. Long-Term Debt

The Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Business Loan and Security Agreement (“Credit Facility”) on March 14, 2012, with a syndication of eleven commercial banks to allow for borrowings of up to $500.0 million for a period of five years (maturing March 14, 2017) under a revolving line of credit. The Credit Facility amends and restates the Company’s previous agreement entered into on February 20, 2008, which had allowed for borrowings of up to $350.0 million. The Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $400.0 million without a borrowing base requirement, subject to limitations based upon certain financial, performance-based calculations. The Credit Facility also provides for an “accordion feature,” which permits additional revolving credit commitments of up to $100.0 million, subject to lenders’ approval. The Company incurred approximately $2.0 million in additional debt issuance costs related to amending the Credit Facility, which will be amortized over the term of the agreement. The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and requires that the Company remain in compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants. The financial covenants, as defined by the Credit Facility, require, among other things, that the Company maintain, on a consolidated basis for each quarter, a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.25 and a leverage ratio of not more than 1.00 to 3.75. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Facility.

The Company has the ability to borrow funds under its Credit Facility at interest rates based on both LIBOR and prime rates, at its discretion, plus their applicable margins. Interest rates on debt outstanding ranged from 1.45% to 1.46% during the first quarter of 2013.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $86.7 million in long-term debt outstanding, $3.0 million in outstanding letters of credit, and unused borrowing capacity of $310.3 million under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2013, available borrowings under the Credit Facility, excluding the accordion feature, taking into account the financial, performance-based limitations, were $285.1 million.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Note 7. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013, and March 31, 2012, were 40.4% and 40.0%, respectively.

The gross unrecognized tax benefits were $1.1 million at March 31, 2013. The offsetting tax benefit at March 31, 2013, was $0.3 million. If recognized, $0.6 million of the net unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2013, would impact the effective tax rate. The Company does not anticipate a significant increase or decrease in total unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months.

The Company files income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The 2009 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and the 2008 through 2012 tax years generally remain subject to examination by state authorities.

The Company reports penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in net income before tax. The Company has made no provision for deferred U.S. income taxes or additional foreign taxes on future unremitted earnings of its controlled foreign subsidiaries because the Company considers these earnings to be permanently invested.
