1.            Description of the Business

K12 Inc. and its subsidiaries (“K12” or the “Company”) is a technology-based education company. The Company offers proprietary curriculum, software systems and educational services designed to facilitate individualized learning for students primarily in kindergarten through 12th grade, (“K-12”). The Company’s mission is to maximize a child’s potential by providing access to an engaging and effective education, regardless of geographic location or socio-economic background. Since its inception, the Company has invested more than $350 million to develop and, to a lesser extent, acquire curriculum and online learning platforms that promote mastery of core concepts and skills for students of all abilities. This learning system combines the Company’s curriculum and offerings with an individualized learning approach well-suited for virtual and blended public schools, school district online programs, public charter schools and private schools that utilize varying degrees of online and traditional classroom instruction, and other educational applications. In contracting with a virtual and blended public school, the Company typically provides students with access to the K12 online curriculum, offline learning kits and the use of a personal computer in certain cases, in addition to providing management services. The Company manages virtual public schools in 33 states and the District of Columbia.

In addition, the Company works closely as partners with a growing number of public schools, school districts, private schools and charter schools enabling them to offer their students an array of solutions, including full-time virtual programs, semester course and supplemental solutions. In addition to curriculum, systems and programs, the Company provides teacher training, teaching services and other support services.

2.             Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the condensed consolidated statement of equity (deficit) for the six months ended December 31, 2013 are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014 or for any other interim period or for any other future fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, the Company does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 29, 2013, which contains the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

The Company operates in one operating and reportable business segment as a technology—based education company providing proprietary curriculum, software systems and educational services designed to facilitate individualized learning for students primarily in kindergarten through 12th grade. The Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates profitability based only on consolidated results.

3.            Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are principally earned from long-term contractual agreements to provide online curriculum, books, materials, computers and management services to virtual and blended public schools, traditional schools, school districts, public charter schools, and private schools. In addition to providing the curriculum, books and materials, under most contracts, the Company manages virtual and blended public schools, including monitoring academic achievement, teacher hiring and training, compensation of school personnel, financial management, enrollment processing and procurement of curriculum, equipment and required services. The schools receive funding on a per student basis from the state in which the public school or school district is located. Shipments of materials for schools that occur in the fourth fiscal quarter and for the upcoming school year are recorded in deferred revenues.

Where the Company provides turn-key management service and it has determined that it is the primary obligor for substantially all expenses under these contracts, the Company records the associated per student revenue received by the school from its state funding school district up to the expenses incurred in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. For contracts where the Company is not the primary obligor, the Company records revenue based on its net fees earned under the contractual agreement. As a result of being the primary obligor, amounts recorded as revenues and school operating expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $119.5 million and $111.5 million, respectively, and for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $67.3 million and $63.8 million respectively.

The Company generates revenues under contracts with virtual and blended public schools which include multiple elements. These elements include providing each of a school’s students with access to the Company’s online curriculum; offline learning kits, which include books and materials to supplement the online lessons; the use of a personal computer and associated reclamation services; internet access and technology support services; the services of a state-certified teacher; and management and technology services required to operate a virtual public or blended school. In certain managed school contracts, revenue is determined directly by per enrollment funding.

The Company has determined that the elements of its contracts are valuable to schools in combination, but do not have standalone value. As a result, the elements within the Company’s multiple-element contracts do not qualify for separate units of accounting. Accordingly, the Company accounts for revenues under multiple element arrangements as a single unit of accounting and recognizes the entire arrangement based upon the approximate rate at which it incurs the costs associated with each element. Revenue from certain managed schools is recognized ratably over the period services are performed.

Under the contracts where the Company provides turn-key management services to schools, the Company has generally agreed to absorb any cumulative operating losses of the schools over the respective contract period. These school operating losses represent the excess of costs incurred over revenues earned by the virtual or blended public school as reflected on its respective financial statements, including Company charges to the schools. A school operating loss in one year does not necessarily mean the Company anticipates losing money on the entire contract with the school. However, a school operating loss may reduce the Company’s ability to collect its management fees in full and recognized revenues are reduced accordingly to reflect the expected cash collections from such schools. The Company amortizes the estimated school operating loss against revenues based upon the percentage of actual revenues in the period to total estimated revenues for the fiscal year. Management periodically reviews its estimates of full year school revenues and operating expenses and amortizes the net impact of any changes to these estimates over the remainder of the fiscal year. Actual school operating losses may vary from these estimates or revisions, and the impact of these differences could have a material impact on results of operations. Since the end of the school year coincides with the end of the Company’s fiscal year, annual revenues are generally based on actual school revenues and actual costs incurred in the calculation of school operating losses.

The Company provides certain online curriculum and services to schools and school districts under subscription and perpetual license agreements. Revenue under these agreements is recognized in accordance with ASC 605 when all of the following conditions are met: there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable; and the collectability of the fee is probable. Revenue from the licensing of

Table of Contents

curriculum under subscription arrangements is recognized on a ratable basis over the subscription period. Revenue from the licensing of curriculum under non-cancelable perpetual arrangements is recognized when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Revenue from professional consulting, training and support services are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period.

Other revenues are generated from individual customers who prepay and have access for 12 to 24 months to Company-provided online curriculum. The Company recognizes these revenues pro rata over the maximum term of the customer contract. Revenues from associated offline learning kits are recognized upon shipment.

During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had contracts with two schools that represented approximately 13% and 10% of revenues. The percentage of revenues for these two schools is not indicative of the percentage of revenues for the full year. Approximately 6% and 7% of accounts receivable was attributable to a contract with one school as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had contracts with two managed public schools that represented approximately 12% and 10% of revenues.

Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned and affiliated companies owned, directly or indirectly, and all controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of textbooks and curriculum materials, a majority of which are supplied to managed public schools and blended public schools and utilized directly by students. Inventories represent items that are purchased and held for sale and are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value. The Company records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory when impairment has been identified. The Company writes down its inventory for estimated excess or unmarketable inventory by an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based on assumptions about future demand and market conditions. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company increased the provision for excess and obsolete inventory by $6.1 million primarily related to the decision to discontinue certain products and excess inventory relative to anticipated demand. The excess and obsolete inventory reserve was $9.0 million and $4.9 million at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

Other Current Assets

Other current assets consist primarily of textbooks, curriculum materials and other supplies which are expected to be returned upon the completion of the school year. Materials not returned are expensed as part of instructional costs and services.

Property and Equipment

Property, equipment and capitalized software development costs are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (or the lesser of the term of the lease and the estimated useful life of the asset under capital lease). Amortization of assets capitalized under capital lease arrangements is included in depreciation expense. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. The Company determines the lease term in accordance with ASC 840, Leases, as the fixed non-cancelable term of the lease plus all periods for which failure to renew the lease imposes a penalty on the lessee in an amount such that renewal appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably assured. Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $23.4 million and $15.8 million respectively, which includes accelerated expenses described below. Property and equipment are depreciated over the following useful lives:

10

Table of Contents

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company updated the estimate of unreturned computers based on an analysis of recent trends of returns and utilization rates, as well as information obtained from the student computer processing systems. As a result, the Company recorded accelerated depreciation of $6.3 million for computers that we estimate will not be returned by our students.

Capitalized Software

The Company develops software for internal use. Software development costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The Company amortizes these costs over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years. Capitalized software development costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortization.

Capitalized software development additions totaled $10.6 million and $11.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company wrote down approximately $3.8 million of capitalized software projects after determining the assets either have no future use or are being sunset. Amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $7.4 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Amortization expense for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $11.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively. The amortization expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 included the write down.

Capitalized Curriculum Development Costs

The Company internally develops curriculum, which is primarily provided as online content and accessed via the Internet. The Company also creates textbooks and other materials that are complementary to online content.

The Company capitalizes curriculum development costs incurred during the application development stage in accordance with ASC 350. The Company capitalizes curriculum development costs during the design and deployment phases of the project. Many of the Company’s new courses leverage off of proven delivery platforms and are primarily content, which has no technological hurdles. As a result, a significant portion of the Company’s courseware development costs qualify for capitalization due to the concentration of its development efforts on the content of the courseware. Capitalization ends when a course is available for general release to its customers, at which time amortization of the capitalized costs begins. The period of time over which these development costs will be amortized is generally five years.

Capitalized curriculum development additions were $7.6 million and $9.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These amounts are recorded on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets net of amortization charges. In addition, the Company wrote down approximately $2.2 million of capitalized curriculum development costs due to its decision to discontinue certain curriculum. Amortization is recorded in product development expenses on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $6.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively. Amortization expense for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $10.3 million and $7.1 million, respectively. The amortization expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 included the write down.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate. ASC 740 requires that the net deferred tax asset be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Series A Special Stock

The Company issued 2,750,000 shares of Series A Special stock in July 2010 in connection with an acquisition. The holders of the Series A Special stock had the right to convert those shares into common stock on a one-for-one basis and the right to vote on all matters presented to K12 stockholders, other than for the election and removal of directors, for which holders of the Series A Special stock had no voting rights. These shares were converted into common stock on September 3, 2013 and no Series A Special stock remains outstanding as of December 31, 2013.

Noncontrolling Interest

Earnings or losses attributable to other stockholders of a consolidated affiliated company are classified separately as “noncontrolling interest” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest reflects only the Company’s share of the after-tax earnings or losses of an affiliated company. Income taxes attributable to noncontrolling interest are determined using the applicable statutory tax rates in the jurisdictions where such operations are conducted. These rates vary from country to country. The Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets reflect the noncontrolling interest within the equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets rather than in the mezzanine section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, except for redeemable noncontrolling interest. Noncontrolling interest is classified separately in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of equity (deficit).

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable outside of the Company’s control for cash or other assets are classified outside of permanent equity at redeemable value which approximates fair value. The redeemable noncontrolling interests are adjusted to their fair value at each balance sheet date. The resulting increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are affected by corresponding charges against retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Finite-lived intangible assets acquired in business combinations subject to amortization are recorded at their fair value. Finite-lived intangible assets include trade names, customer and distributor relationships and developed technology. Such intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $5.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Amortization expense for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $6.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Future amortization of intangible assets is $1.4 million, $2.6 million, $2.5 million, $2.0 million and $2.0 million in the fiscal years ending June 30, 2014 through June 30, 2018, respectively, and $14.9 million thereafter. As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, goodwill balances were recorded at $61.6 million and $61.4 million, respectively.

The Company reviews its recorded finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between fair value and the carrying value of the asset.

ASC 350 prescribes a process for impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life are tested for impairment on an annual basis, or earlier when events or changes in circumstances suggest the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. The Company has elected to perform its annual assessment on May 31 of each year.

The following table represents goodwill activity for the six months ended December 31, 2013:

The following table represents the balance of intangible assets as of December 31 and June 30, 2013:

Intangible Assets

As of December 31, 2013, the Company determined that based on rebranding of the Institutional business, the Company fully amortized certain trade names that are no longer going to be used and recorded a $5.2 million impairment charge for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013. There was no impairment charge for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include property, equipment, capitalized curriculum and software developed or obtained for internal use. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company reviews its recorded long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between fair value and the carrying value of the asset.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1:         Inputs based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.

Level 2:         Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

13

Table of Contents

Level 3:         Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrument’s valuation.

The carrying values reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, inventory and debt approximate their fair values.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is a result of the Company’s joint venture with Middlebury College to form Middlebury Interactive Languages. Under the agreement, Middlebury College has an irrevocable election to sell all (but not less than all) of its membership interest to the Company (put right). The fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest reflects management’s best estimate of the redemption of the put right.

The following table summarizes certain information at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest in Middlebury Joint Venture was measured in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and was based upon a valuation from a third-party valuation firm as of June 30, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company performed an internal analysis and determined there was no underlying change in the estimated fair market value. This analysis incorporated a number of assumptions and estimates including the financial results of the joint venture to date.

Earnings Per Common Share

The Company calculates net income per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Under ASC 260, basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding includes vested restricted stock awards. Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) reflect the potential dilution that could occur assuming conversion or exercise of all dilutive unexercised stock options. The dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock awards was determined using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and restricted stock awards, the amount of compensation cost for future service not yet recognized by the Company and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the stock options become deductible for income tax purposes are all assumed to be used to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Stock options and restricted stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when they are antidilutive. Common stock outstanding reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets include restricted stock awards outstanding. Securities that may participate in undistributed earnings with common stock are considered participating securities. The Series A Special stock was considered participating until all shares were converted into common stock on September 3, 2013. Participating securities are included in the computation of both basic and diluted EPS (as a reduction of the numerator) using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all undistributed earnings in a period are allocated to common stock and participating securities to the extent that each security may share in earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. EPS is presented using the two-class method in the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 only, since the Series A Special stock was outstanding.

Table of Contents

The following schedule presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share:

The basic and diluted weighted average common shares were the same for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, as the inclusion of dilutive securities and Series A special stock prior to the conversion date would have been anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2013, we had 41,111,074 shares issued and 40,826,874 shares outstanding, which included the 2,750,000 common shares associated with the Series A special stock conversion which occurred on September 3, 2013.

The basic and diluted weighted average common shares were the same for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2012, as dilutive securities were out of the money based on a lower average stock price during the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Updates issued but not yet effective are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s future financial statements.

4.             Income Taxes

The benefit (expense) for income taxes is based on income (loss) reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. A deferred income tax asset or liability is determined by applying currently enacted tax laws and rates to the expected reversal of the cumulative temporary differences between the carrying value of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is measured by the change in the deferred income tax asset or liability during the period. For the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s effective income tax rate was 52.4% and 41.8%, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s effective tax rate was 46.5% and 43.3%, respectively. The effective income tax rate differs from the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% primarily due to the impact of foreign operations, state taxes, noncontrolling interests and other nondeductible costs for income tax purposes.

5.             Long-term Obligations

Capital Leases

The Company incurs capital lease obligations for student computers under a lease line of credit with PNC Equipment Finance, LLC with annual lease availability limits. The current annual availability of $35.0 million expires in June 2014. As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the aggregate outstanding balance under the lease line of credit, including balances from prior years, was $41.6 million and $35.5 million, respectively, with lease interest rates ranging from 2.52% to 3.14%. Individual leases under the lease line of credit include 36-month payment terms with a $1 purchase option at the end of each lease term. The interest rates on the new borrowings are based upon an initial rate of 2.40% modified by changes in the three year interest rate swaps rate as published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15, “Selected Interest Rates,” between May 29, 2013 and the Lease Commencement Date (as defined in the lease line of credit). The Company has pledged the assets financed to secure the outstanding leases. The net carrying value of leased student computers as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 was $31.8 million and $31.2 million, respectively.
