PART I.

Business Overview

Korn/Ferry International (referred herein as the “Company,” “Korn/Ferry,” or in the first person notations “we,” “our,” and “us”) is a premier global provider of talent management solutions that help clients to attract, deploy, develop, retain and reward their talent. Since 1969, when we opened our first office in Los Angeles, we have expanded to 71 cities in 39 countries. In 1998, we extended our market reach into the middle-market with the introduction of Futurestep, our outsourced recruiting subsidiary. As of April 30, 2007, we have approximately 2,260 employees, including 490 executive recruitment and 111 Futurestep consultants who are primarily responsible for client services. Our clients include many of the world’s largest and most prestigious public and private companies, middle-market and emerging growth companies, as well as government and not-for-profit organizations. We have built strong client loyalty; more than 84% of the executive recruitment assignments we performed during the last three fiscal years were on behalf of clients for whom we had conducted previous assignments.

We were originally formed as a California corporation in November 1969 and reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in fiscal 2000.

We provide the following talent management solutions:

Executive Recruitment:    Executive search, our flagship business, focuses on board level, chief executive and other senior executive positions for clients predominantly in the consumer, financial services, industrial, life sciences and technology industries. The relationships that we develop through this business are valuable in introducing our complementary service offerings to clients.

Middle-Management Recruitment:    Futurestep, our outsourced recruiting subsidiary, draws from Korn/Ferry’s 38 years of industry experience to create customized recruitment solutions based on clients’ individual workforce needs. In addition to being a pioneer in recruitment process outsourcing (“RPO”), the Company’s multi-tiered portfolio of services includes mid-level search, project recruitment and interim solutions.

Leadership Development Solutions:    Our comprehensive blend of leadership services assists clients with the ongoing assessment and development of their leadership teams. Services include succession planning, management & team development, competency modeling, executive coaching, onboarding, merger integration, cultural change, integrated talent management, and executive compensation consulting through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Executive Compensation Advisors. Each service is supported by the highly consultative expertise of our team and is powered by Lominger, a Korn/Ferry company and an internationally recognized provider of research-based, experience-tested leadership development tools.

We file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). You may read and copy any materials that we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1 800 732 0330. Our reports, proxy statements and other documents filed electronically with the SEC are available at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

We also make available, free of charge on our website at www.kornferry.com, our annual, quarterly, and current reports, and, if applicable, amendments to those reports, filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such reports with, or furnish them to, the SEC.

Financial information regarding our business segments for the last three fiscal years is contained in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Industry Overview

Executive Recruitment:    The executive recruitment market concentrates on searches for positions with annual compensation of $150,000 or more, which generally involve board level, chief executive and other senior executive positions. The industry is comprised of retained and contingency search firms. Retained firms, such as Korn/Ferry, typically charge a fee for their services equal to approximately one-third of the annual cash compensation for the position being filled regardless of whether a position has been filled. Contingency firms generally work on a non-exclusive basis and are compensated only upon successfully placing a recommended candidate.

We also provide leadership development solutions, which include succession planning, management & team development, competency modeling, executive coaching, onboarding, merger integration, cultural change, integrated talent management, and executive compensation consulting.

Middle-Management Recruitment:    The middle-management recruitment market focuses on searches for positions with annual compensation generally in the $100,000 to $150,000 range. This market has undergone a fundamental transformation over the past several years towards a technology-based environment, and has also seen the emergence of outsourced recruitment services commonly referred to as RPO. Technology and the Internet have made identifying, targeting and reaching potential candidates much quicker. This market also benefits from the efficiencies of maintaining large databases of qualified candidates thereby reducing placement times.

Industry Trends

With the global economy continuing to expand, we believe the business outlook for the talent management industry remains positive. The economic upswing, combined with the shortage of qualified executives, will continue to fuel job growth and hiring. We also believe that the following current market trends will contribute to the long-term growth of the industry:

Consolidation of Talent Management Solution Providers—In choosing their recruitment and human resource service providers, companies are actively in search of preferred providers in order to create efficiencies and consolidate vendor relationships. Companies that can offer a full suite of talent management solutions are becoming increasingly attractive. Clients seek trusted advisors who understand their business and unique organizational culture in order to manage the multiple needs of their business on a global scale.

Aging Population—In many major economic centers, the workforce population is aging at a rapid pace. It is projected that there will be twice as many people retiring this decade as there were in the previous one. Moreover, the supply of available qualified candidates is limited, making it more difficult for employers to secure qualified executives. We believe that this trend will have a positive impact on our business, as employers increasingly seek service providers who can provide solutions for the impending talent shortage.

Globalization of Business—As the world markets continue to integrate into one global economy, many successful companies are adding strength to their internal talent with experienced executives who can operate effectively in this global environment. The rapidly changing competitive landscape challenges multinational and local companies to identify and recruit qualified executives with the right combination of skills, experience and

Table of Contents

cultural compatibility. Today, clients are turning to firms that combine proven expertise with specialized knowledge of both key industries and local markets, enabling them to address their ongoing global talent needs.

Increased Outsourcing of Recruitment Functions—More companies are focusing on core competencies and outsourcing non-core, back-office functions to providers who can provide efficient, high-quality services. A shortage of qualified management-level candidates has made identifying and recruiting exceptional candidates more difficult. Companies increasingly rely on experienced global executive recruitment firms to address their management recruitment needs. By hiring global executive recruitment firms, companies can expect to:

Key role of Advanced Technology—At Korn/Ferry we are adding more quality, regimen and scientific research into the recruitment process—with emphasis shifting from candidate identification to candidate assessment and placement. Driving this initiative is enhanced technology, as the world of the Internet, search engines and databases makes it possible to identify greater numbers of qualified candidates. Innovative technology, when combined with world-class intellectual property and thought leadership, creates a compelling set of tools to manage the process of identifying, recruiting and assessing the most desirable candidates.

Expanding our Market Reach and Presence through Technology and Assessment Solutions

Information technology has become a critical element of the recruitment business. We have made significant investments in developing a state-of-the-art technology infrastructure, including a worldwide network and our proprietary executive recruitment software, e-Korn/Ferry. In fiscal 2007, we continued to invest in enhanced tools and information sharing for competitive advantage. We introduced the Mobile Searcher program —enabling our search partners to access our proprietary candidate and customer database via mobile PDA devices. This is the initial phase of a two-year plan to significantly upgrade our search technology platform to improve the scope and quality of our database. The new Searcher will feature advanced tools for importing data from diverse sources, refining and filtering the data, and transforming the data using reporting tools and business analytics.

As Futurestep continued its growth through RPO, project recruitment, interim solutions and mid-level search, information technology helped fuel all of these lines of business. Fiscal 2007 saw the successful launch of a new global website for Futurestep, with enhanced graphics, client-facing content and streamlined candidate registration. We also created a suite of RPO reporting options including cycle metrics, dashboard analytics, recruitment activity, and productivity metrics.

Leadership Development Solutions (“LDS”) also received significant upgrades to its management assessment technology and its talent management platform, Executive Center. Usage of Search Assessment, an assessment technology process for our core search business, increased from 34% to 45% of all search engagements. We continue to refine our technology, including the integration of Lominger intellectual property into our exclusive executive assessment tools, in order to engage with our clients on their broader talent management needs.

Middle-Management Recruitment: The middle-management recruitment market focuses on searches for middle and lower management positions with annual compensation generally in the $100,000 to $150,000 range. This market has been fundamentally transformed over the past several years through the emergence of RPO

services. This transformation has been further driven through database technology and the Internet, which have introduced greatly improved capabilities in identifying, targeting and reaching potential candidates.

Other Industry Trends—In addition to the industry trends mentioned above, we believe the following factors will also contribute to the growth of the talent management industry:

Growth Strategy

Our objective is to expand our position as a premier global provider of talent management solutions. The principal elements of our strategy include:

Recruiting and Retaining Key Consultants

In an ongoing strategic effort to promote the Company as the leading career destination, we successfully recruited 94 new consultants globally during fiscal 2007. These consultants originated from diverse backgrounds and areas of expertise, and were recruited based on their track records as top performers in their given industry. The number of new consultants in the current year was partially offset by attrition. We believe that we have continued to upgrade our professional staff in the current year, and that the recruitment and retention of key consultants will be an ongoing driver of growth.

Broadening our Product and Service Offerings

In addition to our heritage as a leading provider of executive recruitment, we also offer clients outsourced recruiting, mid-level search, project recruitment, interim solutions, strategic management assessment, executive coaching and development ,and compensation consulting through Futurestep and LDS. We will continue to develop and add new products and services that our clients demand and that are consistent with our brand positioning.

Global Account Management

In an effort to better coordinate global recruiting and to gain operational efficiencies, we expect that multinational clients increasingly will turn to strategic partners who can manage their recruitment needs on a centralized basis. This will require vendors with a global network of offices and technological support systems to manage multiple hires across geographical regions. Our global account management program, Integrated Services, continues to identify account leaders for multinational clients, provide training and software support to manage such accounts, and develop guidelines and protocols to support and increase the rate of cross-border assignments for these clients.

Expanding our Market Reach and Presence through Technology and Assessment Solutions

Information technology has become a critical element to the recruitment business. We have made significant investments in developing a state-of-the-art technology infrastructure, including a worldwide network and our

Table of Contents

proprietary executive recruitment software, e-Korn/Ferry. In fiscal 2007, we continued such investments through the deployment of enhanced tools and information sharing for competitive advantage. We rolled out major upgrades of our proprietary candidate database and global engagement management system, while laying the groundwork for the next generation search tool, K/F One. We embarked on a similar program to upgrade Futurestep’s technology, introducing workflow and reporting enhancements in support of Futurestep’s outsourced recruiting offering. Leadership Development Solutions also received significant upgrades to its strategic management assessment technology and its talent management platform, Executive Center. Another unique differentiator is Search Assessment, a proprietary matching tool that uses an online assessment methodology to match candidates against statistically validated best-in-class profiles. We will continue to refine our technology, including our exclusive candidate assessment tools, in order to strengthen our relationships with our existing clients, attract new clients, expand into new markets and position ourselves to gain a competitive advantage in marketing complementary services.

Leveraging our Leadership and Brand Name in Executive Recruitment

We believe that there are significant opportunities to extend our market share and develop new client relationships by aggressively marketing our global recruitment expertise. Our leadership in executive recruitment enables us to grow our business by increasing the number of recruitment assignments we handle for existing clients. We also believe that our strong relationships and well-recognized brand name will enable us to introduce new services to our existing client base and to potential new clients, while allowing us to build communities of candidates to whom we can directly market our services.

Our Services and Organization

We address the global recruitment needs of our clients at all levels of management by offering the following services:

Executive Recruitment Services

Overview.    Our executive recruitment services are typically used to fill executive-level positions, such as board directors, chief executive officers, chief financial officers, chief operating officers, chief information officers and other senior executive officers. Once we are retained by a client to conduct a search, we assemble a team comprised of consultants with appropriate geographic, industry and functional expertise. Our search consultants serve as management advisors who work closely with the client in identifying, assessing and placing qualified candidates. In fiscal 2007, we executed more than 9,600 executive recruitment assignments.

We utilize a search methodology that has been developed through nearly 38 years of experience in conducting executive recruitment. We emphasize a close working relationship with the client and a comprehensive understanding of the client’s business issues, strategy and culture, as well as an in-depth knowledge of the skills necessary to succeed within a client’s organization. Initially, the search team consults with the client to better understand its history, culture, structure, expectations, challenges, future direction and operations. In these meetings, the team identifies the specific needs of the client and develops a profile of an ideal candidate for the position. Early in the process, the team also works with the client to develop the general parameters of a compensation package that will attract highly qualified candidates.

Once the position is defined, a research team identifies—through the use of our proprietary databases and other information resources—companies in related industries facing similar issues and with operating characteristics similar to those of the client. In addition, the team consults with its established network of resources and with our databases containing profiles of approximately 3.5 million executives to assist in identifying individuals with the right background, cultural fit and abilities. These sources are a critical element in assessing the marketplace. The original list of candidates is carefully screened through phone interviews, video

Table of Contents

conferences and in-person meetings. The client is then presented final qualified candidates to interview. We conduct thorough due diligence and background verification of the candidate throughout the process, at times with the assistance of an independent third party.

The finalist for the position will usually meet with the client for a second and possibly a third round of discussions. At this point, the compensation package will have been discussed in detail, increasing the likelihood that an offer will be accepted. Generally, the search consultants will participate in the negotiations until a final offer is made and accepted. Throughout the process, ongoing communication with the client is critical to keep client management apprised of progress.

Industry Specialization     Consultants in our five global markets and two regional specialty practice groups bring an in-depth understanding of the market conditions and strategic management issues faced by clients within their specific industry and geography. We are continually looking to expand our specialized expertise through internal development and strategic hiring in targeted growth areas.

Percentage of Fiscal 2007 Assignments by Industry Specialization

Functional Expertise.    We have organized executive recruitment centers of functional expertise, composed of consultants who have extensive backgrounds in placing executives in certain functions, such as board directors, chief executive officers and other senior executive officers. Our Board Services practice, for example, was first established in 1972 to help clients assemble an effective, knowledgeable and cohesive board of directors to meet the growing demands of accountability and facilitate more effective board performance. The shortage of experienced directors, the tightening of governance policies and the desire of companies to broaden the expertise of their board are raising the standards by which we identify and recruit qualified directors. We have significant expertise in this area and have built a proprietary database with the names and backgrounds of every FORTUNE 1000 director, plus a significant number of middle-market and high-growth company board members to assist in board searches. Members of functional groups are located throughout our regions and across our industry groups.

Regions

North America—We opened our first office in Los Angeles in 1969, and currently have 25 offices throughout the United States and Canada. In fiscal 2007, the region generated fee revenue of $329.1 million from more than 3,900 assignments billed, with an average of 233 consultants.

Table of Contents

Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”)—We opened our first European office in London in 1972, and currently have 22 offices in 20 countries throughout the region. In fiscal 2007, fee revenue was $146.2 million from more than 3,000 assignments billed, with an average of 133 consultants.

Asia Pacific—We opened our first Asia Pacific office in Tokyo in 1973, and currently have 14 offices in 10 countries throughout the region. In fiscal 2007, fee revenue was $75.0 million from more than 1,800 assignments billed, with an average of 77 consultants.

Latin America—We opened our first Latin American office in Brazil in 1974. We expanded our practice to Mexico through the 1977 acquisition of a less than 50% interest in a Mexico City company, and currently conduct operations in Mexico through subsidiaries in which we hold a minority interest. As of April 30, 2007, we operate a network of seven offices in six countries covering the entire South American region and two offices in Mexico. The region, excluding operations in Mexico, generated fee revenue of $17.4 million in fiscal 2007. We handled more than 700 assignments billed in fiscal 2007 in this region, with an average of 22 consultants. Our share of the operating income from our Mexico subsidiaries was $3.2 million and $2.0 million for the years ended April 20, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statements of income.

Client Base.    Our 4,742 clients include many of the world’s largest and most prestigious public and private companies, including 43% of the FORTUNE 500 companies in the current fiscal year. In fiscal 2007, no single client represented more than 2% of fee revenue. We have established strong client loyalty. More than 84% of the executive recruitment assignments we performed during the last three fiscal years were on behalf of clients for whom we had conducted multiple assignments.

Competition.    We are a premier global provider of talent management solutions. Other multinational executive recruitment firms include Egon Zehnder International, Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc., Russell Reynolds Associates and Spencer Stuart. Although these firms are our primary competitors, we also compete with smaller boutique firms that specialize in specific regional, industry or functional searches. We believe our brand name, multi-product offerings, cutting-edge technology, global network, prestigious clientele, strong specialty practices and quality of services are recognized worldwide. We also believe that our long-term incentive compensation arrangements, as well as other executive benefits, distinguish us from most of our competitors and are important in attracting and retaining our key consultants.

Leadership Development Solutions.    In 2004, we consolidated our strategic management assessment and executive coaching and development services under the name Leadership Development Solutions, with services in EMEA, North and South America, Australia and Japan. In 2007, we continued our investment in this service area with the acquisition of Lominger Limited, Inc. and Lominger Consulting (the “Lominger Entities”). This comprehensive blend of leadership services helps corporate leaders to evaluate the individual and collective performance of their teams. These solutions further extend the range of talent management solutions available to our clients, and are valuable tools for the chief executive, board of directors and other senior officers in pursuing organizational transformation and alignment with their company’s strategic goals and internal values.

Our strategic management assessment offering was introduced in response to our clients’ demand for a tool to address the challenges of changing company relationships and global restructuring and, for venture capital and private equity firms, to evaluate the leadership team in existing or prospective portfolio companies. This process is performed by consultants with extensive experience in interviewing and evaluating senior executives, who understand local cultural differences and the relevant business and industry challenges. The assessment process is backed by a statistically validated and proprietary assessment instrument developed by leading assessment experts and supported by a proprietary systems platform.

Another crucial component of our Leadership Development Solutions is executive coaching and development. Our global network of highly-skilled coaches is certified at developing future leaders through

9

Table of Contents

individual and team-based coaching. Additionally, we offer clients a Web-based, highly customizable talent management platform. Called Executive Center, it automates and streamlines the traditionally cumbersome process of setting objectives and tracking and evaluating performance. Through Executive Center’s individual and team-based analysis and reporting capabilities, talent assessment and management can be greatly simplified, allowing for skills and experience gaps as well as succession planning to be more efficiently addressed.

During fiscal 2007, our Leadership Development Solutions group acquired both the Lominger Entities and LeaderSource Ltd. These acquisitions provided us with an even stronger suite of experience-tested, research-based development tools and consulting processes.

Middle-Management Recruitment Services

Overview.    Futurestep offers clients a portfolio of recruitment solutions, including recruitment process outsourcing (“RPO”), mid-level search, project recruitment and interim solutions. Each Futurestep service benefits from the in-depth industry and functional expertise of our global consultant network, ensuring that clients work with professionals who understand their business and have the relevant knowledge to qualify candidates effectively.

Futurestep combines traditional search expertise with a multi-tiered portfolio of recruitment solutions. Futurestep consultants, based in 16 countries, have instant access to one of the world’s largest databases of pre-screened middle-management professionals. Our global candidate pool complements our international presence and multi-channel sourcing strategy to ensure speed, efficiency and quality service for clients worldwide.

A fully integrated, measurable, single-source RPO solution leverages Futurestep’s recruitment capabilities, innovative technology and international brand to reduce clients’ recruitment costs while also improving quality and attracting the best talent. Futurestep manages part of all of the client’s recruitment function, often including on-site consultants from Futurestep.

Futurestep’s mid-level search uses multiple sourcing channels, validated cultural assessments and a global database of more than one million pre-screened professionals to offer a low overhead approach that accelerates the recruitment process and provides a diverse, qualified set of mid-level candidates matched with specific cultural and strategic requirements.

For multiple hiring projects, Futurestep consultants utilize proprietary Enterprise Recruitment Methodology to deliver seamless, workflow-driven talent acquisition strategies to organizations. Prior to deployment, Futurestep diagnoses the client’s internal HR capabilities to develop a “co-sourcing” platform emphasizing shared ownership of the recruitment process. Once engaged, the project team adheres to a tightly integrated timeline and metrics to deliver high-volume, concurrent hiring without sacrificing quality.

For clients needing professionals on a short-term basis, Futurestep offers an interim solutions service that delivers direct access to highly qualified mid-management professionals, fulfilling an organization’s critical needs for a temporary and flexible workforce. Whether the client needs a mid-level position filled on a monthly or yearly basis, Futurestep draws interim executives from one of the world’s largest talent pools of pre-screened, mid-level professionals in the industry.

Regions.    We opened our first Futurestep office in Los Angeles in May 1998. In January 2000, we acquired the ESS business of PA Consulting with operations in Europe and Asia Pacific. As of April 30, 2007, we had Futurestep operations in 12 cities in North America, nine in Europe and 10 in Asia Pacific.

Competition.    Futurestep primarily competes for assignments with contingency staffing firms, temporary staffing firms and recruitment process outsourcers who do not operate at the middle-management level or offer Futurestep’s full suite of solutions.

To a lesser extent, Futurestep competes with firms such as Monster Worldwide in the technology-based middle-management recruitment industry. Although technology-oriented companies may be drawn to the recruitment business by the opportunity to leverage their existing technology, lack of a recognized brand name, global footprint or experienced consultants present significant barriers to entry.

Organization

Our executive recruitment business is managed on a geographic basis throughout our four regions: North America; South America; EMEA; and Asia Pacific. Futurestep is managed on a worldwide basis with operations in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

Professional Staff and Employees

As of April 30, 2007, we had approximately 1,705 executive recruitment employees consisting of 490 consultants and 1,215 associates, researchers, administrative and support staff. In addition, we had 15 consultants in our two unconsolidated Mexico offices. Futurestep had 508 employees as of April 30, 2007, consisting of 111 consultants and 397 administrative and support staff. Corporate had 48 professionals at April 30, 2007. We have not been a party to a collective bargaining agreement and consider our relations with our employees to be good. Korn/Ferry is an equal opportunity employer.

In executive search, senior associates, associates and researchers support the efforts of our consultants with candidate sourcing and identification, but do not generally lead assignments. We have extensive training and professional development programs. Promotion to senior client partner is based on a variety of factors, including demonstrated superior execution and business development skills, the ability to identify solutions to complex issues, personal and professional ethics, a thorough understanding of the market and the ability to develop and help build effective teams. In addition, we have a program for recruiting experienced professionals into our firm.

The following table provides information relating to each of our business segments for fiscal 2007:

The risks described below are the material risks facing our Company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks.

Competition in our industry could result in our losing market share and charging lower prices for services, which could reduce our revenue.

We compete for executive search business with numerous executive search firms and businesses that provide job placement services. Traditional executive search competitors include Egon Zehnder International, Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc., Russell Reynolds Associates and Spencer Stuart. In each of our markets, our competitors may possess greater resources, greater name recognition and longer operating histories than we do, which may give them an advantage in obtaining future clients and attracting qualified professionals in these markets. There are no extensive barriers to entry into the executive search industry, and new recruiting firms continue to enter the market. We believe the continuing development and increased availability of information technology will continue to attract new competitors. Increased competition may lead to pricing pressures that could negatively impact our business.

If we fail to attract and retain qualified and experienced consultants, our revenue could decline and our business could be harmed.

We compete with other executive search firms for qualified consultants. Attracting and retaining consultants in our industry is particularly important because, generally, a small number of consultants have primary responsibility for a client relationship. Because client responsibility is so concentrated, the loss of key consultants may lead to the loss of client relationships. This risk is heightened due to the general portability of a consultant’s business. Any decrease in the quality of our reputation, reduction in our compensation levels or restructuring of our compensation program, whether as a result of insufficient revenue, a decline in the market price of our common stock or for any other reason, could impair our ability to retain existing consultants or attract additional qualified consultants with the requisite experience, skills and established client relationships. Our failure to retain our most productive consultants or maintain the quality of service to which our clients are accustomed and the ability of a departing consultant to move business to his or her new employer could result in a loss of clients and harm our business.

Economic conditions in the geographic regions and the industries from which we derive a significant portion of our fee revenue could undermine our future profitability.

Demand for our services is significantly affected by the general level of economic activity in the geographic regions and industries in which we operate. When economic activity slows, many companies hire fewer

Table of Contents

permanent employees. Any significant economic downturn, on a global basis, in North America, or in other regions or industries where our operations are heavily concentrated, could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to retain our executive officers and key personnel, or integrate new members of our senior management who are critical to our business, we may not be able to successfully manage our business in the future.

Our future success depends upon the continued service of our executive officers and other key management personnel. If we lose the services of one or more of our executives or key employees, or if one or more of them decides to join a competitor or otherwise compete directly or indirectly with us, we may not be able to successfully manage our business or achieve our business objectives.

If we are unable to maintain our professional reputation and brand name, our business will be harmed.

We depend on our overall reputation and brand name recognition to secure new engagements and to hire qualified professionals. Our success also depends on the individual reputations of our professionals. We obtain a majority of our new engagements from existing clients or from referral by those clients. Any client who is dissatisfied with our assignments can adversely affect our ability to secure new engagements.

If any factor, including poor performance, hurts our reputation, we may experience difficulties in competing successfully for both new engagements and qualified consultants. Failing to maintain our professional reputation and the goodwill associated with our brand name could seriously harm our business.

We are subject to potential legal liability from clients, employees and candidates. Insurance coverage may not be available to cover all of our potential liability and available coverage may not be sufficient to cover all claims that we may incur.

Our ability to obtain liability insurance, its coverage levels, deductibles and premiums are all dependent on market factors, our loss history and insurers’ perception of our overall risk profile. We are exposed to potential claims with respect to the executive search process. A client could assert a claim for matters such as breach of an off-limit agreement or recommending a candidate who subsequently proves to be unsuitable for the position filled. Further, the current employer of a candidate whom we placed could file a claim against us alleging interference with an employment contract. In addition, a candidate could assert an action against us for failure to maintain the confidentiality of the candidate’s employment search or for alleged discrimination, violations of employment law or other matters. We cannot ensure that our insurance will cover all claims or that insurance coverage will be available at economically acceptable rates.

We rely heavily on our information systems and if we lose that technology, or fail to further develop our technology, our business could be harmed.

Our success depends in large part upon our ability to store, retrieve, process and manage substantial amounts of information. To achieve our strategic objectives and to remain competitive, we must continue to develop and enhance our information systems. This may require the acquisition of equipment and software and the development of new proprietary software, either internally or through independent consultants. If we are unable to design, develop, implement and utilize, in a cost-effective manner, information systems that provide the capabilities necessary for us to compete effectively, or for any reason any interruption or loss of our information processing capabilities occurs, this could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face risks associated with political instability, legal requirements and currency fluctuations in our international operations.

We operate in 39 countries and, as of April 30, 2007, generated nearly half our fee revenue from operations outside of North America. There are certain risks inherent in transacting business worldwide, such as:

We have no hedging or similar foreign currency contracts, and therefore fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies could impact our global operations. We cannot ensure that one or more of these factors will not harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We may be limited in our ability to recruit employees from our clients and we could lose those opportunities to our competition, which could harm our business.

Either by agreement with clients, or for client relations or marketing purposes, we sometimes refrain from, for a specified period of time, recruiting employees from a client when conducting searches on behalf of other clients. These off-limit agreements can generally remain in effect for up to two years following completion of an assignment. The duration and scope of the off-limit agreement, including whether it covers all operations of the client and its affiliates or only certain divisions of a client, generally are subject to negotiation or internal policies and may depend on factors such as the scope, size and complexity of the client’s business, the length of the client relationship and the frequency with which we have been engaged to perform executive searches for the client. Our inability to recruit employees from these clients may make it difficult for us to obtain search assignments from, or to fulfill search assignments for, other companies in that client’s industry. We cannot ensure that off-limit agreements will not impede our growth or our ability to attract and serve new clients, or otherwise harm our business.

We have provisions that make an acquisition of us more difficult and expensive.

Antitakeover provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws and under Delaware law make it more difficult and expensive for us to be acquired in a transaction that is not approved by our Board of Directors. Some of the provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws include:

These provisions could discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction in which stockholders could receive a premium over the current market price for the common stock.

Dividends

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since April 30, 1996 and do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to $125 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock pursuant to issuer repurchase programs. We have repurchased approximately $75 million of the Company’s common stock as of April 30, 2007 under these programs. Future dividend policy as well as decisions to execute our currently outstanding issuer repurchase programs will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors. Our credit facility does not restrict our ability to pay dividends.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On June 13, 2005, Friedman, Fleischer & Lowe (“FFL”) entered into a forward sale contract with Credit Suisse First Boston LLC (“CSFB”) to sell FFL’s remaining portion of the Company’s convertible securities.

On March 7, 2007, the Company issued notice for the redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) of its 7.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million and

18

Table of Contents

its 7.5% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (the “Convertible Preferred Stock”) in an aggregate principle price of $10 million. As of March 7, 2007, $45.6 million of the Convertible Notes and $11.4 million of the Convertible Preferred Stock was outstanding. In response to the Redemption Notice, the beneficial owner of the Convertible Notes and the Convertible Preferred Stock exercised its option to convert (the “Conversion”) the Convertible Notes and the Convertible Preferred Stock, pursuant to the terms thereof, which were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $10.19 per share. The Conversion resulted in 5,586,187 shares of the Company’s common stock being delivered to the holder of the convertible securities in April 2007.

The issuance of the shares of the Company’s common stock into which the Convertible Notes and the Convertible Preferred Stock were converted was exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by virtue of the exemption afforded by Section 3(a)(9) thereof. Such determination was based upon the fact that the securities exchanged in connection with the Conversion were made by the Company with its existing security holders exclusively, the then beneficial owners of the Convertible Notes and Convertible Preferred Stock, and no commission or other remuneration was paid of given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

During the twelve months ended April 30, 2007, the Company repurchased common stock under the common stock repurchase programs approved by the Board of Directors in December 2005, June 2006, and March 2007. Pursuant to these programs, shares can be repurchased in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion.

The following table summarizes common stocks repurchased during the three months of the last quarter of fiscal 2007:

We have established strong client loyalty; more than 84% of the executive recruitment assignments we performed during the previous three fiscal years were on behalf of clients for whom we had conducted multiple assignments.

21

Table of Contents

In an effort to maintain our long-term vision of being the leading provider of executive search, outsourced recruiting and leadership development solutions, our strategic focus for fiscal 2008 will center upon increasing market share and further enhancing the cross-selling of our multi-product strategy. We will continue to address areas of increasing client demand, including Recruitment Process Outsourcing (“RPO”) and Leadership Development Solutions (“LDS”). We will explore new products and services, continue to pursue a disciplined acquisition strategy, enhance our technology and processes and aggressively leverage our brand through thought leadership and intellectual capital projects as a means of delivering world-class service to our clients.

Fee revenue increased 25% in fiscal year 2007 to $653.4 million with increases in all regions. The North American region experienced the largest dollar increase in fee revenue. In fiscal 2007, we earned an operating profit of $82.3 million with operating income from executive recruitment of $111.9 million and $7.9 million from Futurestep, offset by corporate expenses of $37.5 million. This represents an increase of 8% over the prior fiscal year’s operating income of $76.2 million.

We had no long-term debt or outstanding balance under our credit facility at April 30, 2007. Our working capital increased $17.1 million to $235.3 million at April 30, 2007.

Critical Accounting Policies

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements. Preparation of this Annual Report on Form 10-K requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. In preparing our financial statements and accounting for the underlying transactions and balances, we apply our accounting policies as disclosed in our notes to consolidated financial statements. We consider the policies discussed below as critical to an understanding of our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment. Specific risks for these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. Senior management has discussed the development and selection of the critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Revenue Recognition.    Management is required to establish policies and procedures to ensure that revenue is recorded over the performance period for valid engagements and related costs are matched against such revenue. We provide recruitment services on a retained basis and generally bill clients in three monthly installments. Since the fees are generally not contingent upon placement of a candidate, our assumptions primarily relate to establishing the period over which such service is performed. These assumptions determine the timing of revenue recognition and profitability for the reported period. If these assumptions do not accurately reflect the period over which revenue is earned, revenue and profit could differ. Any services that are provided on a contingent basis are recognized once the contingency is fulfilled.

Deferred Compensation.    Estimating deferred compensation requires assumptions regarding the timing and probability of payments of benefits to participants and the discount rate. Changes in these assumptions would significantly impact the liability and related cost on our balance sheet and statement of operations. Management engages an independent actuary to periodically review these assumptions in order to ensure that they reflect the population and economics of our deferred compensation plans in all material respects and to assist us in estimating our deferred compensation liability and the related cost. The actuarial assumptions we use may differ from actual results due to changing market conditions or changes in the participant population. These differences could have a significant impact on our deferred compensation liability and the related cost.

Carrying Values.    Valuations are required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to determine the carrying value of various assets. Our most significant assets for which management is required to prepare valuations are goodwill, intangible assets and deferred income taxes. Management must identify whether

22

Table of Contents

events have occurred that may impact the carrying value of these assets and make assumptions regarding future events, such as profitability. Differences between the assumptions used to prepare these valuations and actual results could materially impact the carrying amount of these assets and our operating results.

Table of Contents

Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

Fee Revenue.

Fee revenue increased $130.5 million, or 25%, to $653.4 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $522.9 million in fiscal 2006. The improvement in fee revenue is attributable mainly to an 8% increase in the number of engagements billed within executive recruitment and an increase in average fees from all regions. The Lominger Entities contributed $11.9 million in revenues during fiscal 2007. Exchange rates favorably impacted fee revenues by $14.7 million in the current year.

Executive Recruitment—Executive recruitment fee revenue increased $114.9 million, or 25%, due to an increase in the number of engagements billed, an increase in average fee and the Lominger acquisition. On a year-to-date basis, the number of executive recruitment engagements billed have increased by 8% as compared to last year.

North America fee revenue increased $70.0 million, or 27%, to $329.1 million primarily due to a 7% increase in the number of engagements billed as well as a 19% increase in average fees as compared to last year. The financial services, technology and industrial sectors were the primary contributors to the increase in fee revenues. An increased demand for the LDS products also resulted in a $6.3 million increase in fee revenues.

EMEA reported fee revenue of $146.2 million, an increase of $26.1 million, or 22%, compared to $120.1 million last year, which was driven by an 11% increase in the number of engagements billed and an increase in average fees of 10%. The performance in new offices in Denmark, Turkey and the Czech Republic and improved performance in existing offices in Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and the Middle East were the primary contributors to the increase in fee revenues. The financial services, industrial and technology sectors experienced strong growth over the prior year. Exchange rates favorably impacted EMEA fee revenue by $10.8 million in the current year.

Asia Pacific fee revenue increased $17.1 million, or 30%, to $75.0 million, compared to last year due to a 12% increase in the number of engagements billed and an increase in average fees of 16%. The offices of Greater China (Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing) and Australasia (Australia and New Zealand) contributed 47% and 22%, respectively of the increase in fee revenue. The financial services, industrial and technology sectors experienced strong growth over the prior year. Exchange rates favorably impacted fee revenue for Asia Pacific by $1.0 million in the current year.

South America reported fee revenue of $17.4 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 11%, of which $0.4 million related to the favorable impact of exchange rates. Overall engagements billed within the region were comparable to prior year while average fees increased by 16%. Every country in the region experienced growth over the prior year with Brazil contributing approximately one-third of the increase in fee revenues.

Futurestep—Fee revenue increased $15.6 million, or 22%, to $85.8 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $70.2 million in fiscal 2006. The improvement in fee revenue, reflected across all regions, is due to an increase in average fees resulting from our continued strategic emphasis on larger outsourced recruiting solutions. Of the total increase in fee revenue, Asia-Pacific experienced the largest increase in fee revenue of $6.6 million, or 45%, to $21.1 million reflecting increased revenue from areas including RPO and Interim Solutions. Europe fee revenue increased $6.6 million, or 24%, to $33.9 million, arising from increased business in France, the United Kingdom, Spain and Australia and a migration to larger engagements. Exchange rates favorably impacted fee revenue by $2.5 million in the current year.

Compensation and Benefits.

Compensation and benefits expense increased $106.5 million, or 31%, to $447.7 million in fiscal 2007 from $341.2 million in fiscal 2006. The increase in compensation and benefits expense is primarily due to increased global headcount of 421, or 23%, compared to prior year, including an 16% increase in the average number of

24

Table of Contents

consultants, coupled with increased profitability and retention awards. Increased compensation and benefits also resulted from a $5.2 million charge for executive employment contract changes recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 and $4.6 million of compensation and benefits from the Lominger Entities that wasn’t present last year. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted compensation and benefits expense by $9.3 million in the current year.

Executive recruitment compensation and benefits costs of $365.0 million increased $88.5 million, or 32%, compared to $276.5 million in the prior year primarily due to consultants hired over the past year. In the current year, the number of consultants increased by 50, or 11%, compared to last year. Exchange rates impacted executive recruitment compensation and benefits expense unfavorably by $7.7 million. Executive recruitment compensation and benefits expense, as a percentage of fee revenue, increased to 64% in fiscal year 2007 compared to 61% in fiscal 2006.

Futurestep compensation and benefits expense increased $9.8 million, or 20%, to $58.4 million from $48.6 million in the prior year due to significant investments in our employees which increased Futurestep average consultant headcount by 50% over the past year. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted Futurestep compensation and benefits expense by $1.6 million. Futurestep compensation and benefits expense, as a percentage of fee revenue, declined to 68% from 69% in the prior year.

Corporate compensation and benefits expense increased $8.3 million, or 52%, to $24.3 million, primarily from a $5.2 million charge for executive contract changes recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 and stock-based compensation expense that wasn’t present in the prior year.

General and Administrative Expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased $11.8 million, or 13%, to $105.3 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $93.5 million in 2006. The Lominger Entities contributed $1.3 million to the increase. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted general and administrative expenses by $2.6 million in the current year.

Executive recruitment general and administrative expenses increased $9.4 million, or 14%, from $67.3 million in the prior year to $76.7 million in the current year. The increase was driven by other administrative expenses of $2.1 million, including travel and meeting expenses, an increase in premise and office expense of $4.9 million and a $2.6 million increase in business development expenses. Increased premise and office expense was attributable to all regions due to increased rent expense and total space leased. Executive recruitment general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of fee revenue, decreased to 14% from 15% in the prior year.

Futurestep general and administrative expenses increased $1.7 million, or 12%, to $16.2 million, primarily due to a net increase in premise and office expense of $1.3 million resulting from a $2.2 million increase in rent expense, noted across all regions, and the opening of new offices in Europe and Asia offset by a $0.9 million reversal of a previously recorded lease reserve. Bad debt expense increased $0.3 million resulting from an increase in the level of business and corresponding increase in accounts receivable. Futurestep general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of fee revenue, decreased to 19% from 21% in the prior year.

Corporate general and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million, or 7%, to $12.4 million primarily due to increased professional fees and premise and office expenses related to additional office space leased in fiscal 2007.

Out-of-Pocket Engagement Expenses.    Out-of-pocket engagement expenses consist of expenses incurred by candidates and our consultants that are generally billed to clients. Out-of-pocket engagement expenses of $44.7 million increased $12.7 million, or 40%, over the prior year. As a percentage of fee revenue, out-of-pocket engagement expenses increased to 7% in current year compared to 6% in prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses.    Depreciation and amortization expense of $9.3 million in fiscal 2007 increased $0.3 million, or 3%, from prior year. Depreciation expense relates mainly to computer equipment,

25

Table of Contents

software, furniture and leasehold improvements. Increase in expense for the current year is attributable to an increase in fixed asset balances primarily associated with furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements related to business expansion and office buildout and amortization of software costs that add new functionality in our corporate and executive search segments.

Operating Income.

Operating income increased $6.1 million, or 8%, to $82.3 million in the current year compared to $76.2 million in the prior year, resulting from increased revenue of $137.4 million offset by a $131.3 million increase to operating expenses, primarily compensation and benefits and general and administrative expenses in the current year. The Lominger Entities contributed $2.6 million for the year ended April 30, 2007.

Executive recruitment operating income increased $11.2 million, or 11%, to $111.9 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $100.7 million in fiscal 2006. The improvement in executive recruitment operating income is attributable to increased revenues offset by additional compensation expense relating to increased headcount and variable payouts as discussed previously, as well as increased professional fees, premise and other general administrative expense. Executive recruitment operating income, as a percentage of fee revenue, decreased to 20% from 22%, due to certain executive employment contract changes, our continued investment in Leadership Development Solutions and increases in profitability based compensation during the current year.

Futurestep operating income increased by $4.5 million to $7.9 million in fiscal 2007 as compared to operating income of $3.4 million in fiscal 2006. The increase in Futurestep operating income is primarily due to higher average fees in engagements billed, a $0.9 million reversal of a previously recorded lease reserve and improvements in compensation and benefits and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of fee revenue in the current year. Futurestep operating income, as a percentage of fee revenue, improved to 9% from 5% last year.

Interest Income and Other Income, Net.    Interest income and other income, net decreased by $0.7 million in fiscal 2007 from $11.1 million in fiscal 2006. Interest and dividend income increased as a result of higher yields on larger balances of funds available for investment compared to prior year; however, this increase was not large enough to offset the $4.5 million realization of a loss recovery on a previously impaired investment in fiscal 2006.

Interest Expense. Interest expense, primarily related to convertible securities and borrowings under Company Owned Life Insurance Policies (“COLI”) policies, was $10.2 million in fiscal year 2007 and 2006. Interest expense related to the convertible securities was $4.9 million in fiscal 2007; as these securities were converted to shares of the Company’s common stock in April 2007 there will not be any interest expense in fiscal 2008 related to the securities. See Note 10 of the “Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements” for more detailed information on the conversion of these securities.

Provision for Income Taxes.    The provision for income taxes was $30.2 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $19.6 million in fiscal 2006. The provision for income taxes in the current year reflects a 36.6% effective tax rate. The provision for income taxes for the prior year reflects a 25.4% tax rate. Excluding the $4.5 million realization of a loss recovery on a previously impaired investment and a net one-time tax benefit of $6.5 million the effective tax rate for the fiscal year 2006 would have been 36.0%, which is comparable to the year ended April 30, 2007.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries.    Equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries is comprised of our less than 50% interest in our Mexican subsidiaries. We report our interest in earnings or loss of our Mexican subsidiaries on the equity basis as a one line adjustment to net income, net of taxes. Equity in earnings was $3.2 million compared to $2.0 million last year, resulting from increased profitability in both subsidiaries. Dividends received from the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiaries equaled $2.4 million in the current year, and is reflected as a reduction in the carrying value of our investment.

Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

Fee Revenue.

Fee revenue increased $70.7 million, or 16%, to $522.9 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $452.2 million in fiscal 2005. The improvement in fee revenue is attributable mainly to a 29% increase in the number of engagements billed. Contributing factors to increased revenue during fiscal year 2006 include the opening of new offices in Europe and Asia, strong performances in the North America and Asia Pacific regions, as well as the continued growth of our Futurestep subsidiary. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted fee revenues by $4.9 million in fiscal 2006, mainly related to European revenues.

Executive Recruitment—Executive recruitment fee revenue increased $54.4 million, or 14%, due to a 15% increase in the number of engagements billed as well as average fee increases in certain regions. Emergent economies, newly established offices, as well as expanding industries in various regions also factored in the overall growth in fee revenue.

North America fee revenue increased $33.2 million, or 15%, to $259.1 million due to an 11% increase in the number of engagements billed as well as a 3% increase in average fees as compared to fiscal 2005. Increased revenue obtained in the industrial sector contributed significantly to the region’s revenue, along with growth in the financial services and in the consumer goods markets over the prior fiscal year.

EMEA reported fee revenue of $120.1 million, an increase of $9.6 million, or 9%, compared to $110.5 million in prior year, which was driven by an 11% increase in the number of engagements billed. Business in the European market expanded in 2006 due to strong performances from consultants in the United Kingdom and France, and growth in newer offices established in recent years, such as in the Middle East, Czech Republic, and an affiliate relationship in Russia. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted EMEA fee revenue by $5.4 million in fiscal 2006.

Asia Pacific fee revenue increased $6.7 million, or 13%, to $57.9 million in the year ended April 30, 2006, compared to prior fiscal year due to a 20% increase in the number of engagements billed as well as strong performance in our China offices in Beijing and Shanghai. The growing economy in China has significantly contributed to the improved business experienced by the region in fiscal 2006, attributing to almost half of the total increase in Asia fee revenues over prior year.

South America reported fee revenue of $15.7 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 45%, of which $1.6 million related to the favorable impact of exchange rates. Revenue increased $2.5 million in Brazil, a 54% increase over fiscal 2005, primarily due to an 81% increase in the number of engagements billed in fiscal 2006. Overall in the entire region, engagements billed increased by 26% since prior year while average fees increased by 15%.

Futurestep—Fee revenue increased $16.3 million, or 30%, to $70.2 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $53.9 million in fiscal 2005. The improvement in fee revenue is due to an increase in the number of engagements billed combined with our continued strategic emphasis on larger outsourced recruiting solutions. Of the total increase in fee revenue, North America experienced the largest increase in fee revenue of $6.6 million, or 30%, to $28.3 million reflecting increased revenue from areas including RPO and Interim Solutions. Europe fee revenue increased $5.8 million, or 27%, to $27.3 million, arising from increased business in the United Kingdom and Belgium, again attributable to a migration to larger engagements. Exchange rates unfavorably impacted Futurestep Europe fee revenue by $1.1 million. Asia Pacific fee revenue increased $3.9 million, or 37% to $14.6 million, where increased revenues were derived from Australia and New Zealand. Revenue resulting from the opening of an office in India in fiscal year 2006 also contributed to growth.

Compensation and Benefits.

Compensation and benefits expense increased $48.3 million, or 17%, to $341.2 million in fiscal 2006 from $292.9 million in fiscal 2005. Increased headcount along with increased profitability and internal promotions have contributed to the overall increase in expense in fiscal year 2006. Total headcount increased globally by 266, or 17% over last year as the Company continues to expand its operations across industries and regions worldwide. Exchange rates impacted compensation and benefits expense favorably by $3.4 million in the current year, due to changes in exchange rates between the US dollar and the Euro and Pound Sterling.

Executive recruitment compensation and benefits costs of $276.5 million increased $32.0 million, or 13%, compared to $244.5 million in the prior year due to increased profitability based rewards and new consultants joining the firm. In the fiscal year 2006, the number of consultants increased by 42 or 11% as compared to prior year. Exchange rates impacted executive recruitment compensation and benefits expense favorably by $2.8 million. Executive recruitment compensation and benefits expense, as a percentage of fee revenue, remained stable at 61%.

Futurestep compensation and benefits expense increased $14.5 million, or 43%, to $48.6 million from $34.1 million in the prior year primarily due to increased variable compensation as well as increased external contractors’ expense arising from increased business, especially in North America. Additionally, average headcount increased by 34%, which significantly contributed to the overall increase in compensation and benefits since fiscal 2005. Exchange rates impacted Futurestep compensation and benefits expense favorably by $0.6 million. Futurestep compensation and benefits expense, as a percentage of fee revenue, increased to 69% from 63% in the prior year.

Corporate compensation and benefits expense increased $1.7 million, or 12%, to $16.0 million, reflecting increased profitability-based rewards and executive benefits. Increases also reflect additional expense derived from fiscal 2006 restricted stock grants as well as from added amortization arising from the Company’s prior year contribution to deferred compensation plans.

General and Administrative Expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased $10.0 million, or 12%, to $93.5 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $83.5 million in 2005. Increases to general and administrative expenses related to increased premise and office expense of $4.3 million, business development expense of $2.1 million, bad debt expense of $1.0 million, and other types of general expenses of $2.6 million including administrative meeting and travel expense along with certain legal expenses. Exchange rates favorably impacted general and administrative expenses by $0.5 million in the year ended April 30, 2006.

Executive recruitment general and administrative expenses of $67.3 million increased $3.9 million, or 6%, due to premise and office expense of $2.5 million, business development costs of $1.4 million, and bad debt expense of $0.4 million These were offset by a decrease to other general expenses of $0.4 million versus the prior year.

Premise and office expense increased $3.1 million in our North and South American regions, resulting from additional space leased as well as rent increases from renewed contracts or office relocations. This was offset by a decrease in Asia of $0.6 million, resulting from a decrease in the allocation of premise and office expense between shared offices in Australia.

Increased business development costs in the North American and EMEA Search practices were most significant. In North America, increases were $0.9 million while in EMEA, these increases amounted to $0.3 million. In Asia and South America, business development expense increased by $0.1 million in each region. Business development expenses generally fluctuate in conjunction with revenue and overall business activity.

During the year ended April 30, 2006, North America experienced the largest increase in bad debt expense of $0.6 million, with EMEA having a total increase of $0.5 million. Both increases are consistent with the

28

Table of Contents

increase in revenue in both regions, as opposed to deterioration in collection activity. These amounts were offset by a decrease in Asia of $0.5 million. Lower bad debt expense for this region in fiscal year 2006 is due to improved collections activity prior to year end. Executive recruitment general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of fee revenue, declined to 15% from 16% in the prior year.

Futurestep general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2006 increased $4.4 million, or 44%, to $14.5 million due to a $1.8 million increase in premise and office expense and a $1.6 million increase in other general expenses, which included increased meeting and travel expense of $0.7 million and legal expense $0.5 million, along with a $0.4 million increase across the regions in general office expenses, such as regional marketing expenses. The increase in premise and office expense was noted throughout all regions, which all increased since the prior year at $0.6 million per region. In Europe and Asia, additional rental expense incurred in fiscal year 2006 in relation to new offices opened in Spain and India, respectively, contributed to their overall increase since prior year. Business development expense increased by $0.5 million, relating mainly to Futurestep’s North American and Asian regions. Business development expenses generally fluctuate in conjunction with revenue and overall business activity. The remaining increase of $0.5 million related to bad debt expense and write offs of accounts receivable in the North American region. Futurestep general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of fee revenue, increased to 21% from 19% in the prior year.

Corporate general and administrative expenses increased $1.6 million, or 16%, to $11.6 million primarily due to increased professional fees.

Out-of-Pocket Engagement Expenses.    Out-of-pocket engagement expenses consist of expenses incurred by candidates and our consultants that are generally billed to clients. During fiscal year 2006, out-of-pocket engagement expenses of $31.9 million increased $6.2 million, or 24%, over the prior year. As a percentage of fee revenue, out-of-pocket engagement expenses remained stable at 6% in both years.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses.    Depreciation and amortization expense of $9.0 million in fiscal 2006 increased $0.6 million, or 7%, from prior year. The primary source of the overall increase since the prior year is the $0.5 million increase in the EMEA Search region, due to replacements of software and hardware in the region in fiscal 2006 as well as office relocations in the Middle East and Germany, which caused larger depreciation expense related to leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures. North America Search, Futurestep and South America Search depreciation expense increases mainly related to computer software and hardware additions were offset by decreases in Corporate and Asia Search, which experienced decreased expense due to fully depreciated computer equipment by prior year-end.

Operating Income.

Operating income increased $10.4 million, or 16%, to $76.2 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $65.8 million in the prior year, resulting from increased revenue of $75.4 million offset by a $65.0 million increase to operating expenses, primarily compensation and benefits and general and administrative expenses.

Executive recruitment operating income increased $16.6 million, or 20%, to $100.7 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $84.1 million in fiscal 2005. The improvement in executive recruitment operating income is attributable to increased revenues offset by additional compensation expense relating to increased headcount and variable payouts as discussed previously, as well as increased professional fees, premise and other general administrative expense. Executive recruitment operating income, as a percentage of fee revenue, as a result, increased to 22% from 21%, resulting from revenue growth.

Futurestep operating income decreased by $3.1 million to $3.4 million in fiscal 2006 as compared to operating income of $6.5 million in fiscal 2005. The decrease in Futurestep operating income is due to increased compensation and benefits costs arising from increased headcount, significant investment in internal technology to better serve the Futurestep clients and business, as well as one-time write offs of receivables in fiscal year 2006. Futurestep operating income, as a percentage of fee revenue, declined to 5% from 12% last year.

Table of Contents

Interest Income and Other Income, Net.    Interest income and other income, net includes interest income of $11.1 million and $3.4 million in fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. During fiscal year 2006, the Company continued to transfer cash to higher interest rate investments due to the Company’s improved cash position, resulting in an increase to interest income of $2.5 million. Additionally, the Company recovered $4.5 on an investment that had been previously impaired in 2002. In addition, during fiscal 2006, the Company recognized $1.0 million in realized gains as a result of the sale of equity securities and $0.2 million of the increase is associated with interest and dividends, both arising from our ECAP investments.

Interest Expense.    Interest expense, primarily related to convertible securities and borrowings under Company Owned Life Insurance Policies (“COLI”) policies, was $10.2 million in fiscal 2006, a decrease of $0.3 million from $10.5 million in the prior year due to declining rates.

Provision for Income Taxes.    The provision for income taxes was $19.6 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $20.3 million in fiscal 2005. The provision for income taxes in fiscal 2006 reflects a 25.4% effective tax rate. In the third quarter of the year ended April 30, 2006, the Company recovered $4.5 million on a previously impaired investment, which management considers a non-recurring event. When the investment was originally impaired in fiscal year 2002, a deferred tax asset was booked with a 100% valuation allowance due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to realize a capital loss deduction after the sale of the investment. As a result, there was no tax expense booked on the loss recovery during fiscal year 2006 as there is no taxable income associated with the recovery. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $8.6 million resulting from the conclusion, on February 16, 2006, of an audit of the Company’s U.S. Federal Income Tax returns for the years ended April 30, 1997 through April 30, 2003. The Company also recorded $2.1 million in tax expense for the expected tax consequences of repatriating certain funds that had previously been considered as permanently reinvested abroad. Excluding these events, the effective tax rate for the year would have been 36.0%.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries.    Equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries is comprised of our less than 50% interest in our Mexican subsidiaries. We report our interest in earnings or loss of our Mexican subsidiaries on the equity basis as a one line adjustment to net income. Equity in earnings was $2.0 million compared to $0.2 million last year, resulting from increased profitability in both subsidiaries. Dividends received from the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiaries equaled $2.7 million in fiscal 2006, and is reflected as a reduction in the carrying value of our investment. Fiscal 2005 equity in earnings included an adjustment of $0.9 million related to stock options issued to our Mexican subsidiaries’ employees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that cash on hand, borrowings available under our credit facility and funds from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and general corporate requirements. However, adverse changes in our revenue could require us to cut costs or obtain financing to meet our cash needs. There are no trends or demands or commitments that would materially affect liquidity or those that relate to the Company’s resources.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and have not entered into any transactions involving unconsolidated, limited purpose entities.

Contractual Obligations

Contractual obligations represent future cash commitments and liabilities under agreements with third parties, and exclude contingent liabilities for which we cannot reasonably predict future payment. The following table represents our contractual obligations as of April 30, 2007 (in thousands):

30

Table of Contents

In addition to the contractual obligations above, we have liabilities related to certain employee benefit plans. These liabilities are recorded in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The obligations related to these employee benefit plans are described in Note 7, Deferred Compensation and Retirement Plans, Pension Plan, Company Owned Life Insurance Policies and Executive Capital Accumulation Plan.

We also make interest payments on our COLI loans. These loans are described in Note 11 to the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Long-Term Debt. As the timing of these loan repayments are uncertain, we have not included these obligations in the table above.

Lastly, we have contingent commitments under certain employment agreements that are payable upon termination of employment.

Liquidity.

The following table presents selected financial information (in thousands):

The net increase in our working capital of $17.1 million in fiscal 2007 compared to fiscal 2006 is primarily attributable to increases in accounts receivable balances related to overall growth in the number of engagements billed plus higher average fees per engagement in all regions and consistent accounts receivable collection. The net cash position reflects proceeds from exercises of stock options offset by continued investment in the business through our stock buy back program, current year acquisitions and increases in accrued liabilities related primarily to increases in profitability based compensation during the current year.

Cash provided by operating activities was $102.3 million in the current year, an increase of $21.9 million, from $80.5 million in fiscal 2006. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $28.9 million related to profitability based compensation accruals and $6.9 million of deferred compensation plan accruals associated to contributions by the Company in various deferred compensations plans on behalf of employees compared to the prior year. The profitability based compensation increases are a direct result of the substantial increase in revenues across business segments compared to prior year. Offsetting these increases is an increase of receivables balances of $6.5 million resulting

31

Table of Contents

from overall growth in the number of engagements billed plus higher average fees per engagement billed throughout the regions and an increase in deferred income tax benefits of $9.6 primarily associated with increases in deferred compensation plan accruals, ECAP contributions and restricted stock grants.

Cash used in investing activities was $48.5 million for fiscal 2007, compared to $21.7 million used in the prior year. For the year ended April 30, 2007, the increase in cash used was primarily attributable to the acquisition of the Lominger Entities of $20.3 million. Capital expenditures during the year were $14.1 million, an increase of $2.8 million over prior year, primarily related to continuing expansion of our Futurestep business and increased systems hardware and software costs. These expenditures primarily related to leasehold improvements from office expansion and internally-developed software projects including Executive Center and Searcher as well as the implementation of financial reporting software.

Cash used by financing activities was $26.0 million in fiscal 2007, a $27.2 million increase from 2006. In the current fiscal year, we repurchased $57.6 million of common stock, $56.0 million of which related to the previously announced stock buyback programs approved by the Board of Directors in December 2005, June 2006, and March 2007 as we continue to reinvest in the business. These repurchases were offset by proceeds received from the exercise of stock options of $20.4 million and the associate tax benefits of $7.0 million from stock option exercises in the current fiscal year due in part to an increase in vested shares and exercise activity attributable to an increase in the Company’s share price.

Long-Term Debt.

Total outstanding borrowings under our COLI policies were $60.0 million, $58.4 million and $56.6 million as of April 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Generally, we borrow under our COLI policies to pay related premiums. Such borrowings do not require annual principal repayments, bear interest primarily at variable rates and are secured by the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies of $136.5 million, $129.0 million and $121.7 million as of April 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. At April 30, 2007, the net cash value of these policies was $76.5 million of which $63.7 million was held in a trust.

As of April 30, 2007, we had no outstanding amounts related to our 7.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes and 7.5% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock. On March 7, 2007, the Company issued notice for the redemption of its 7.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million and its 7.5% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock in an aggregate principal price of $10 million. As of March 7, 2007, $45.6 million of the 7.5% Convertible Subordinated Notes and $11.4 million of the 7.5% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock was outstanding. The notes and preferred stock were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $10.19 per share. In response to the redemption notice, the holder of the notes and preferred stock exercised its option to convert the debt and preferred stock pursuant to the terms of the original agreements. The conversion resulted in 5,586,187 shares of the Company’s common stock being delivered to the holders of the convertible securities in April 2007.

We have a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility which we amended in February 2005 to a $50 million borrowing capacity with no borrowing base restrictions. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets including certain accounts receivable balances and guarantees by and pledges of a portion of the capital stock of our significant subsidiaries. We are required to meet certain financial condition covenants on a quarterly basis. As of April 30, 2007, we had no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility.

Quarterly Results

The following table sets forth certain unaudited statement of operations data for the quarters in fiscal 2007 and 2006. The unaudited quarterly information has been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in management’s opinion, includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information for the quarters presented (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) (“Statement 123(R)”), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“Statement 123”). Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123(R) is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. Statement 123(R) is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We adopted Statement 123(R) on May 1, 2006 using the modified-prospective method.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). Among other things, FIN 48 creates a model to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold which all income tax positions must achieve to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. In addition, FIN 48 requires expanded annual disclosures, including a tabular rollforward of the beginning and ending aggregate unrecognized tax benefits as well as specific detail related to tax uncertainties for which it is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months. FIN 48 is effective for the Company on May 1, 2007. Any differences between the amounts recognized in the statement of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption are generally accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FIN 48; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). The statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement and establishes a fair value hierarchy. This statement also clarifies how the assumptions of risk and the effect of restrictions on sales or use of an asset effect the valuation. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Management is evaluating the impact this statement may have on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements

33

Table of Contents

No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (“SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158 retains the previous measurement and disclosure requirements of prior accounting guidance, but now requires the recognition of the funded status of pension and other postretirement benefit plans on the balance sheet (“recognition provisions”). Furthermore, for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008, FAS 158 requires fiscal-year-end measurements of plan assets and benefit obligations, eliminating the use of earlier measurement dates currently permissible. The recognition provisions of SFAS No. 158 were effective for the Company on April 30, 2007. Previously unrecognized actuarial gains or losses, prior service cost, and any remaining unamortized transition obligation will be recognized on the balance sheet with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of any resulting deferred tax balances. We adopted SFAS No. 158 on April 30, 2007. Adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February, 2007, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”) including an amendment of SFAS No. 115. This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Company is assessing SFAS No. 159 and has not yet determined the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our results of operations or financial position, if any.

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a result of our global operating activities, we are exposed to certain market risks, including foreign currency exchange fluctuations and fluctuations in interest. We manage our exposure to these risks in the normal course of our business as described below. We have not utilized financial instruments for trading, hedging or other speculative purposes nor do we trade in derivative financial instruments.

Foreign Currency Risk.

Substantially all our foreign subsidiaries’ operations are measured in their local currencies. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of each reporting period and revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the reporting period. Resulting translation adjustments are reported as a component of comprehensive income on our consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.

Transactions denominated in a currency other than the reporting entity’s functional currency may give rise to transaction gains and losses that impact our results of operations. Historically, we have not realized significant foreign currency gains or losses on such transactions. In the year ended April 30, 2007, we recognized foreign currency gains, after income taxes, of $0.7 million primarily related to our EMEA operations.

Our primary exposure to exchange losses is based on outstanding intercompany loan balances denominated in U.S. dollars. If the U.S. dollar strengthened 15%, 25% and 35% against the Pound Sterling, the Euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and the Yen, the Company’s exchange loss would have been $2.6 million, $4.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively, based on outstanding balances at April 30, 2007. If the U.S. dollar weakened by the same increments against Pounds Sterling, the Euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and the Yen, the Company’s exchange gain would have been $2.6 million, $4.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively, based on outstanding balances at April 30, 2007.

Interest Rate Risk.

We primarily manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through our regular financing activities, which generally are short term and provide for variable market rates. As of April 30, 2007, we had no outstanding balance on our credit facility. We have $60.0 million of borrowings against the cash surrender value

34

Table of Contents

of COLI contracts as of April 30, 2007 bearing interest primarily at variable rates. The risk of fluctuations in these variable rates is minimized by the fact that we receive a corresponding adjustment to our borrowed funds crediting rate on the cash surrender value on our COLI contracts.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter or that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting on pages F-2 and F-3, respectively.
