The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the consolidated cash flows of the Company. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.
These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including those related to derivatives and hedging activities, income taxes including valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, self-insurance reserves, litigation reserves, restructuring reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance that changes the criteria for reporting a discontinued operation. According to the new guidance, only disposals of a component that represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entitys operations and financial results is a discontinued operation. The new guidance also requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations and disposals of a significant part of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The new standard is effective beginning January 1, 2015 with early adoption permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in previously-issued financial statements. The adoption of this guidance will be dependent on any future disposal transactions.
(2) ACQUISITIONS
Sofica
In the first quarter of 2014, the Company acquired 100% interest in Sofica Group, a Bulgarian joint stock company (Sofica). Sofica provides customer lifecycle management and other business process outsourcing services across multiple channels in multiple sites in over 18 languages.
The total purchase price of $14.5 million, consisted of $9.0 million in up-front cash consideration (inclusive of a working capital adjustment) and earn-out payments payable in 2015 and 2016, if Sofica achieves specified earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) targets, as defined by the stock purchase agreement.
The fair value of the contingent payments was measured based on significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs). Key assumptions include a discount rate of 22% and expected future value of payments of $4.0 million. The $4.0 million of expected future payments was calculated using a bell curve probability weighted EBITDA assessment with the highest probability associated with Sofica achieving the targeted EBITDA for each earn-out year. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent payments was approximately $3.4 million. As of March 31, 2014, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $3.4 million, of which $2.0 million and $1.4 million were included in Other accrued expenses and Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

The Sofica customer relationships have an estimated useful life of five years. The goodwill recognized from the Sofica acquisition was attributable primarily to the acquired workforce of Sofica, expected synergies, and other factors. The tax basis of the acquired intangibles and goodwill are not deductible for income tax purposes. The acquired goodwill and the operating results of Sofica are reported within the Customer Management Services segment from the date of acquisition.
Other Acquisitions
WebMetro
In the third quarter of 2013, the Company acquired 100% of WebMetro, a California corporation (WebMetro), a digital marketing agency.
The total purchase price was $17.8 million, including $15.3 million in up-front cash consideration (inclusive of a working capital adjustment) and earn-out payments payable in 2014 and 2015, if WebMetro achieves specified EBITDA targets, as defined by the stock purchase agreement.
The fair value of the contingent payments was measured based on significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs). Key assumptions include a discount rate of 5.3% and expected future value of payments of $2.6 million. The $2.6 million of expected future payments was calculated using a bell curve probability weighted EBITDA assessment with the highest probability associated with WebMetro achieving the targeted EBITDA for each earn-out year. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent payments was approximately $2.5 million. During the first quarter of 2014, the first earn-out payment was completed. As of March 31, 2014, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $1.7 million which was included in Other accrued expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. The fair value is higher than the fair value recorded on the acquisition date because WebMetro exceeded expected earnings.

The WebMetro customer relationships and software have an estimated useful life of six years and four years, respectively.

The acquired goodwill and the operating results of WebMetro are reported within the Customer Growth Services segment from the date of acquisition.
Peppers & Rogers Group
In the third quarter of 2013, the Company acquired the remaining 20% interest in Peppers & Rogers Group (PRG) for $425 thousand. The buy-out accelerated TeleTechs rights pursuant to the sale and purchase agreement to acquire the remaining portion of the business in 2015.
The acquired businesses noted above contributed revenues of $4.8 million and income from operations of $0.3 million, inclusive of $0.6 million of acquired intangible amortization, to the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The Company performs a goodwill impairment assessment on at least an annual basis.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company assessed whether any such indicators of impairment existed and concluded there were none.
(6) DERIVATIVES
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company enters into foreign exchange and interest rate related derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives entered into consist of forward and option contracts to reduce the Companys exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are associated with forecasted revenue earned in foreign locations. Interest rate derivatives consist of interest rate swaps to reduce the Companys exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with its variable rate debt. Upon proper qualification, these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. It is the Companys policy to only enter into derivative contracts with investment grade counterparty financial institutions, and correspondingly, the fair value of derivative assets considers, among other factors, the creditworthiness of these counterparties. Conversely, the fair value of derivative liabilities reflects the Companys creditworthiness. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has not experienced, nor does it anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults. The following table summarizes the aggregate unrealized net gain or loss in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (amounts in thousands and net of tax):

Fair Value Hedges
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to economically hedge against foreign currency exchange gains and losses on certain receivables and payables of the Companys foreign operations. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges are recognized in earnings in Other income (expense), net. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the total notional amount of the Companys forward contracts used as fair value hedges were $229.5 million and $204.5 million, respectively.
Embedded Derivatives
In addition to hedging activities, the Companys foreign subsidiary in Argentina was party to U.S. dollar denominated lease contracts which the Company determined contain embedded derivatives. As such, the Company bifurcated the embedded derivative features of the lease contracts and valued these features as foreign currency derivatives. As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of the embedded derivative was $0.1 million and was included in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as shown in the table below. As of March 31, 2014, the lease had expired and thus the embedded derivative value was reduced to zero.

(7) FAIR VALUE
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires that the Company maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
The following presents information as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of the Companys assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the fair value hierarchy used to determine their fair value.
Accounts Receivable and Payable - The amounts recorded in the accompanying balance sheets approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Debt - The Companys debt consists primarily of the Companys Credit Agreement, which permits floating-rate borrowings based upon the current Prime Rate or LIBOR plus a credit spread as determined by the Companys leverage ratio calculation (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement. During the first quarter of 2014 outstanding borrowings accrued interest at an average rate of 1.2% per annum, excluding unused commitment fees. The amounts recorded in the accompanying Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the debt.
Derivatives - Net derivative assets (liabilities) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The portfolio is valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, interest rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk, including the ability of each party to execute its obligations under the contract. As of March 31, 2014, credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the Companys derivative contracts.
The following is a summary of the Companys fair value measurements for its net derivative assets (liabilities) as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (amounts in thousands):

Money Market Investments The Company invests in various well-diversified money market funds which are managed by financial institutions. These money market funds are not publicly traded, but have historically been highly liquid. The value of the money market funds are determined by the banks based upon the funds net asset values (NAV). All of the money market funds currently permit daily investments and redemptions at a $1.00 NAV.
Deferred Compensation Plan The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan structured as a Rabbi trust for certain eligible employees. Participants in the deferred compensation plan select from a menu of phantom investment options for their deferral dollars offered by the Company each year, which are based upon changes in value of complementary, defined market investments. The deferred compensation liability represents the combined values of market investments against which participant accounts are tracked.

Purchase Price Payable The Company recorded purchase price payables related to the acquisitions of iKnowtion, Guidon, TSG, WebMetro and Sofica. These purchase price payables were recognized at fair value using a discounted cash flow approach and a discount rate of 21.0%, 21.0%, 4.6%, 5.3% or 22.0%, respectively. The discount rates vary dependant on the specific risks of each acquisition including the country of operation, the nature of services and complexity of the acquired business, and other similar factors. These measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The Company will record interest expense each period using the effective interest method until the future value of these purchase price payables reaches their expected future value of $23.9 million. Interest expense related to all recorded purchase price payables is included in Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
A rollforward of the activity in the Companys fair value of the purchase price payable is as follows (amounts in thousands):

(8) INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting literature for income taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of transactions that have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Quarterly, the Company assesses the likelihood that its net deferred tax assets will be recovered. Based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a future tax benefit will not be realized.
During the first quarter of 2014, a benefit of $1.2 million was recorded due to the closing of statutes of limitations in Canada.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $53.3 million of gross deferred tax assets (after a $9.9 million valuation allowance) and net deferred tax assets (after deferred tax liabilities) of $51.2 million related to the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions whose recoverability is dependent upon future profitability.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 11.9% and 11.4%, respectively.
The Companys U.S. income tax returns filed for the tax years ending December 31, 2009 to present remain open tax years. The Company has been notified of the intent to audit, or is currently under audit, of income taxes in the U.S. for tax years 2009, 2011 and 2012, Canada for tax years 2009 and 2010 and the Netherlands for tax year 2010. Although the outcome of examinations by taxing authorities are always uncertain, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of these audits will not have a material effect on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements.

(9) RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND IMPAIRMENT LOSSES
Restructuring Charges
During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company undertook restructuring activities primarily associated with reductions in the Companys capacity and workforce in several of its segments to better align the capacity and workforce with current business needs.

Impairment Losses
During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain delivery centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset groups carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized no losses related to leasehold improvement assets.

(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Credit Facility
In the second quarter of 2013, the Company entered into a $700.0 million, five-year, multi-currency revolving credit facility (the Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of lenders which includes an accordion feature that permits the Company to request an increase in total commitments up to $1.0 billion, under certain conditions. Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, KeyBank National Association, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, BBVA Compass and HSBC Bank USA, National Association served as Joint Lead Arrangers. The Credit Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Companys prior credit facility entered into during 2010 and amended in 2012.
The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility that matures on June 3, 2018 with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $700.0 million. At the Companys discretion, direct borrowing options under the Credit Agreement include (i) Eurodollar loans with one, two, three, and six month terms, and/or (ii) overnight base rate loans. The Credit Agreement also provides for a sub-limit for loans or letters of credit in both U.S. dollars and certain foreign currencies, with direct foreign subsidiary borrowing capabilities up to 50% of the total commitment amount. The Company may increase the maximum aggregate commitment under the Credit Agreement to $1.0 billion if certain conditions are satisfied, including that the Company is not in default under the Credit Agreement at the time of the increase and that the Company obtains the commitment of the lenders participating in the increase.
The Company primarily utilizes its Credit Agreement to fund working capital, general operations, stock repurchases and other strategic activities, such as the acquisitions described in Note 2. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had borrowings of $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, under its Credit Agreement, and its average daily utilization was $270.9 million and $219.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. After consideration for issued letters of credit under the Credit Agreement, totaling $3.5 million, the Companys remaining borrowing capacity was $596.5 million as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under its Credit Agreement.
From time-to-time, the Company has unsecured, uncommitted lines of credit to support working capital for a few foreign subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, no foreign loans were outstanding.
Letters of Credit
As of March 31, 2014, outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Agreement totaled $3.5 million and primarily guaranteed workers compensation and other insurance related obligations. As of March 31, 2014, letters of credit and contract performance guarantees issued outside of the Credit Agreement totaled $0.9 million.
Guarantees
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Companys present and future domestic subsidiaries.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company has been involved in legal actions, both as plaintiff and defendant, which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for exposures associated with such legal actions to the extent that losses are deemed both probable and estimable. To the extent specific reserves have not been made for certain legal proceedings, their ultimate outcome, and consequently, an estimate of possible loss, if any, cannot reasonably be determined at this time.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, a class action complaint was filed in the State of California against a TeleTech subsidiary and Google Inc. (Google), as co-defendants. Pursuant to its contractual commitments, the Company has agreed to indemnify Google for costs and expenses related to the complaint. The Company settled the matter for an immaterial amount during the first quarter of 2014.

(12) MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
The Company holds an 80% interest in iKnowtion. In the event iKnowtion meets certain EBITDA targets for calendar year 2015, the purchase and sale agreement requires TeleTech to purchase the remaining 20% interest in iKnowtion in 2016 for an amount equal to a multiple of iKnowtions 2015 EBITDA as defined in the purchase and sale agreement. These terms represent a contingent redemption feature which the Company determined is probable of being achieved.
The Company has recorded the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest at the redemption value based on the corresponding EBITDA multiples as prescribed in the purchase and sale agreement at the end of each reporting period. At the end of each reporting period the changes in the redemption value are recorded in retained earnings. Since the EBITDA multiples as defined in the purchase and sale agreement are below the current market multiple, the Company has determined that there is no preferential treatment to the noncontrolling interest shareholders resulting in no impact to earnings per share.
A rollforward of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is included in the table below.
