6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2016

Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2016. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Net earnings per common share:

Net earnings per common share: Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income attributable to common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted EPS (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Numerator for earnings per common share calculation:
Net income	$	5,029	$	3,431	$	7,729	$	5,894


Denominator for earnings per common share calculation:
Weighted-average common shares, basic	42,546		42,737		42,844		42,566
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock options, restricted stock and warrants	261		553		794		701

Weighted-average common shares, diluted	42,807		43,290		43,638		43,267


EPS
Basic	$	0.12	$	0.08	$	0.18	$	0.14
Diluted	$	0.12	$	0.08	$	0.18	$	0.14

We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted income per common share calculation. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.1 million shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted income per common share for this period because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The net income per share amounts are the same for our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”) and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B common stock”), because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.

Use of estimates:

Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification:

Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts presented in Other accrued expenses have been reclassified to Taxes payable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, which resulted in an increase to Taxes payable to conform with the fiscal 2016 presentation with no impact to current liabilities.

Recent accounting pronouncements:

Recent accounting pronouncements: In May 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue, and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08- Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principle versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606; they clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued further guidance related to revenue recognition with ASU 2016-10 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“Update 2016-10”). The amendments in Update 2016-10 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather it clarifies identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. In May 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2016-12 — Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 605) Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. Similar to ASU 2016-08 and ASU 2016-10, the amendments in ASU 2016-12 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather if clarifies issues around assessing collectability and issues concerning implementation at transition to the ASU. The effective date for implementation remains unchanged and will impact the first interim period of our 2018 fiscal year. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and our method of adoption.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 — Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting as part of its simplification initiative. The areas for simplification in this update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 — Leases (Topic 842) in February 2016. ASU 2016-02 amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating Topic 842, Leases. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with specified scope exemptions, and supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases, including operating leases. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from a lease by a lessee have not changed significantly from previous GAAP. The principle difference from previous guidance is that the assets and liabilities arising from an operating lease should be recognized in the statement of financial position. The guidance will be effective for the first interim period of our 2019 fiscal year. Early application of the amendments in this update is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.
