Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are principally earned from long-term contractual agreements to provide onlineon-line curriculum, books, materials, computers and management services to virtual public schools, hybrid schools, traditional schools, school districts, public charter schools and school districts. The Company is often responsibleprivate schools. In addition to providing the curriculum, books and materials under the virtual public schoolsschool and hybrid school contracts from which most of the Company’s revenue is derived, the Company is responsible for all aspects of schoolthe management of schools, including monitoring academic achievement, teacher hiring and training, compensation of school personnel, financial management, enrollment processing and procurement of curriculum, equipment and required services. The schools generally receive funding on a per student basis from the state in which the public school or school district is located.

Shipments for schools that occur in the fourth fiscal quarter that are for the upcoming school year are recorded in deferred revenues.

Where the Company has determined that it isthey are the primary obligor for substantially all expenses under these contracts, itthe Company records the associated per student revenue received by the school from its state funding school district up to the expenses incurred in accordance with ASC 605 (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)99-19,Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent).Recognition. For contracts in which the Company is not the primary obligor, the Company records revenue based on its net fees earned per the contractual agreement.

The Company generates revenues under contracts with virtual public schools and hybrid schools which include multiple elements. These elements may include:include providing each of a school’s students with access to the Company’s onlineon-line school and the onlineon-line component of lessons; offline learning kits which include books and materials designed to complement and supplement the onlineon-line lessons; the use of a personal computer and associated reclamation services; internet access and technology support services; instruction fromthe services of a state-certified teacher; andteacher and; all management and technology services required to operate a virtual public school or hybrid school.

In certain managed school contracts, our revenue is determined directly by per enrollment funding. As our services are performed over the fiscal year, we generally earn and recognize revenues ratably over that period.

The Company has determined that the elements of our contracts are valuable to schools in combination, but do not have standalone value. While we have sold some of these elements in various combinations or bundles to schools and school districts, the value of each element across these combinations is indeterminable and we have concluded that we do not have sufficient objective and reliable evidence of fair value for each element. As a result, the elements within our multiple-element contracts do not qualify for treatment as separate units of accounting. Accordingly, the Company accounts for revenues received under multiple element arrangements as a single unit of accounting and it recognizes the entire arrangement based upon the approximate rate at which we incur the costs associated with each element. In certain schools where the Company has a direct relationship with the state funding school district, the Company recognizes the associated per student revenue on a pro-rata basis over the school year.

Under the contracts with the schools where the Company provides turnkey management services, the Company has generally agreed to absorb any operating losses of the schools in a given school year. These school operating losses represent the excess of costs incurred over revenues incurredearned by the virtual public schools or hybrid schools as reflected on their financial statements. The costs include Company charges to the schools. TheseThe fact that a school has an operating loss in one year does not necessarily mean the Company anticipates losing money on the entire contract, however, a school operating lossesloss may

reduce the Company’s ability to collect invoices in full. Accordingly, the Company’s amountrecognized revenues reflect this reduction. The Company amortizes the estimated school operating loss against revenues based upon the percentage of recognized revenue reflects this reduction.
actual revenues in the period to total estimated revenues for the fiscal year. Management periodically reviews its estimates of full year school revenues and full year school operating expenses and amortizes the net impact of any changes to these estimates over the remainder of the fiscal year. Actual school operating losses may vary from these estimates or revisions, and the impact of these differences could have a material impact on results of operations. Since the end of the school year coincides with the end of the Company’s fiscal year, annual revenues are generally based on actual school revenues and actual costs incurred in the calculation of school operating losses.

On December 1, 2010, the Company acquired The American Education Corporation (AEC), a leading provider of research-based core curriculum for kindergarteners through adult learners. AEC derives revenues

K12 Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

from four sources: (1) annual subscription license revenues; (2) license revenues from non-cancelable perpetual license agreements; (3) related professional and support services and (4) hosting services to provide customers with access to its online courses.

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 605 when all of the following conditions are met: there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable; and the collectability of the fee is probable.

Revenue from hosting services is recognized over the term of the hosting agreement.

Revenue from the licensing of curriculum under subscription arrangements where AEC provides online access to curriculum is recognized on a ratable basis over the subscription period starting the later of the first day of the subscription period or when all revenue recognition criteria identified above have been met. Revenue from the licensing of curriculum under subscription and non-cancelable perpetual arrangements where AEC is not providing access via a hosting arrangement is recognized when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Revenue from professional and support services include consulting and training services, which are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period.

Other revenues are generated from individual customers who prepay and have access for 12 or 24 months to curriculum via the Company’s online learning system.Web site. The Company recognizes these revenues pro rata over the maximum term of the customer contract, which is either 12 or 24 months. Revenues from associated offline learning kits are recognized upon shipment.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, approximately 56% and 50%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were recognized from schools we managed. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we had contracts with two schools that represented approximately 7% and 9% of revenues. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we had contracts with two schools that each individually represented approximately 12% of revenues. Approximately 13% and 12% of accounts receivable was attributable to a contract with one school as of September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011.

Consolidation

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

Series A Special StockInventories

At

Inventories consist primarily of schoolbooks and curriculum materials, a Special Meetingmajority of Shareholderswhich are supplied to virtual public schools and hybrid schools and utilized directly by students. Inventories represent items that are purchased and held for sale and are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value. Excess and obsolete inventory reserves are established based upon the evaluation of the quantity on January 27,hand relative to demand. The excess and obsolete inventory reserve was $3.0 million and $2.9 million at September 30, 2011 the right to convert the Series A Special Stock to common stock was approved by the shareholders. As a consequence, the right of redemption is no longer effective and those shares have been classified within stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet. The Special Stock’s carrying value was not impacted by the vote.

June 30, 2011, respectively

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts related to capitalized software development costs and other long term liabilities have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Series A Special Stock

The Company issued 2,750,000 shares of Series A Special stock in connection with its acquisition of KC Distance Learning, Inc. The holders of the Series A Special stock have the right to convert those shares into

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

common stock on a one-for-one basis and for the right to vote on all matters presented to K12 shareholders, other than for the election and removal of directors, for which holders of the Series A Special stock have no voting rights.

Noncontrolling Interest

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

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

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

Goodwill and Intangibles

We record

The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Finite-lived intangible assets acquired in business combinations subject to amortization are recorded at their fair value in accordance with ASU Topic 350.350 — Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. Finite-lived intangible assets include trade names customer relationships and non-compete agreements. Such intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

In accordance with ASC Topic 360Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, — Property, Plant, and Equipment, the Company reviews its recorded finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances


8


K12 Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between fair value and the carrying value of the asset.

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

During the first quarter of 2011, the Company’s goodwill increased by approximately $10.0 million due primarily to the acquisition of certain assets of Kaplan Virtual Education and Insight Schools (Kaplan/Insight Assets) a subsidiary of Kaplan, Inc (see Note 10). The Company did not experience a significant adverse change in its business climate and therefore does not believe a triggering event occurred that would require a detailed test of goodwill for impairment as of an interim date. Consequently, the first step of the goodwill impairment test will not be performed during the first quarter of 2012. The Company will complete its annual goodwill impairment test as of May 31, 2012.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include property, equipment, capitalized curriculum and software developed or obtained for internal use. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company reviews its recorded long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between fair value and the carrying value of the asset. There was no impairment for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 and the year ended June 30, 2011.

Fair Value Measurements

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

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

Level 1:

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

Level 2:

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

Level 3:

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

The carrying values reflected in our consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and short and long term debt approximate their fair values.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is a result of the Company’s venture with Middlebury College to form a new entity, Middlebury Interactive Languages. Under the agreement, Middlebury College has an irrevocable election to sell all (but not less than all) of its Membership Interest to the Company (put right) after May 1, 2015.(“put right”). The fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest reflects management’s best estimate of the redemption value of the put right.
The Company has recorded its investment in Web International Education Group, Ltd. (Web) as an available for sale debt security because of our ability to put the investment to other Web shareholders in return for the original $10 million purchase price plus interest. The fair value reflects management’s best estimate of the investment in Web.

Net Income perPer Common Share

Basic earnings

The Company calculates net income per share in accordance with ASC 260. Under ASC 260, basic net income per common share is computedcalculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted averageweighted-average number of shares of common stockshares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding includes vested restricted stock awards. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur assuming conversion or exercise of all dilutive unexercised stock options unvestedand restricted stock awards and warrants.awards. The dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock awards and warrants was determined using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and restricted stock awards, the amount of compensation cost for future service not yet recognized by the Company, and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the stock options and restricted stock awards become deductible for income tax purposes are all assumed to be used to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Stock options and restricted stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when they are antidilutive. Common stock outstanding reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet includes restricted stock awards outstanding.

Securities that may participate in undistributed earnings with common stock are considered participating securities. Since the Series A Shares participate in all dividends and distributions declared or paid on or with respect to common stock of the Company (as if a holder of common stock), the Series A Shares meet the definition of participating security under ASC 260Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128. All securities that meet the definition of a participating security, regardless of whether the securities are convertible, non-convertible, or potential common stock securities, are included in the computation of both basic and diluted EPS (as a reduction of the numerator) using the two-class method. Under the two-class method all undistributed earnings in a period are to be allocated to common stock and participating securities to the extent that each security may share in earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU2010-06,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,, which requires new disclosures for transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 and activity in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. ASU2010-06 requires separate disclosure of the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and a description of the reasons for the transfers. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using Level 3 inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. ASU2010-06 is effective for new disclosures and clarification of existing disclosures for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the Level 3 activity rollfoward.rollforward.

In June 2011, the FASB issues ASU 2011-05,Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which provides authoritative guidance on disclosure requirements for comprehensive income. This accounting update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. Instead, the Company must report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning on July 1, 2012. The Company does not expect the guidance to impact its financial condition and results of operations, as it only requires a change in the format of presentation.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08,Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which provides authoritative guidance to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. This accounting update permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning on July 1, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the guidance to impact its consolidated financial statements.

Income taxesTaxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740,Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate. ASC 740 requires that the net deferred tax asset be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. The provision for income taxes is based on earnings reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. A deferred income tax asset or liability is determined by applying currently enacted tax laws and rates to the expected reversal of the cumulative temporary differences between the carrying value of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is measured by the change in the deferred income tax asset or liability during the year.

Our income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, which are taken into account in the quarterly period in which they occur. We review and update our estimated annual effective tax rate each quarter. Our income tax expense totaled approximately $5.3 million and $3.9 million forperiod. For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $14.3 million and $13.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These amounts representedCompany’s effective income tax rates from continuing operations of approximately 50%rate was 46.0% and 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 49% and 38% for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010,57.7%, respectively.
We implemented the provision of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. There has been no material change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits reported as of March 31, 2011.

Goodwill

During the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company’s goodwill increased by approximately $51.8 million due primarily to the acquisitions of KC Distance Learning, Inc. and American Education Corporation (see Note 11). The Company did not experience a significant adverse change in its business climate and therefore does not believe a triggering event occurred that would require a detailed test of goodwill for impairment as of an interim date. The Company expects to complete its annual goodwill impairment test as of May 31, 2011.

• Deferred revenue represents advance payments from customers for education services. The fair value was estimated based on a costbuild-up approach. The costbuild-up approach determines fair value by estimating the costs related to supporting the obligation plus an assumed profit which approximates, in theory, the

Executive Summary

We are a technology-based education company. We offer proprietary curriculum, software systems and educational services designed to facilitate individualized learning for students primarily in kindergarten through 12th grade, or K-12. Our mission is to maximize a child’s potential by providing access to an engaging and effective education, regardless of geographic location or socio-economic background. Since our inception, we have invested more than $225$240 million to develop and, to a lesser extent, acquire curriculum and an online learning platformplatforms that promote mastery of core concepts and skills for students of all abilities. This learning system combines a cognitive research-basedour curriculum and offerings with an individualized learning approach well-suited for virtual public schools, onlinehybrid schools, school district-widedistrict online programs, public charter schools hybrid programs and private schools that combineutilize varying degrees of online and traditional classroom instruction, and other educational applications.

We deliverare also expanding our learning systemoffering of foreign languages with Middlebury Interactive Languages (MIL), our joint venture with Middlebury College. We also expanded our international business by making an investment in a 20% ownership interest in Web International Education Group, Ltd. (Web), a company providing English instruction to young adults in China, and also are investing in the post-secondary market through Capital Education LLC (Capital Education), our wholly owned subsidiary.

As with a traditional public school, a virtual public school or hybrid school must comply with state education regulations. The fundamental difference between traditional public schools and virtual public schools is that students primarily throughattend virtual public schools and have an institutional businesshybrid schools primarily over the Internet instead of traveling to a physical classroom. In their online learning environment, students receive assignments, complete lessons, and obtain instruction from certified teachers with sales directly to school districts. Manywhom they interact online, telephonically, in virtual classroom environments, and sometimes face-to-face. The majority of states have embraced virtual public schools or hybrid schools as a means to provide families with a publicly fundedpublicly-funded alternative to a traditional classroom-based education. We offerFor parents who believe their child is not thriving and for whom relocating or attending a private school is not an option, virtual public schools and hybrid schools can provide a compelling choice. From an education policy standpoint, virtual public schools and hybrid schools often represent a savings to the taxpayers when compared with traditional public schools because they are generally funded at a lower per pupil level than the per pupil state average as reported by the U.S. Department of Education. Finally, because parents are generally not required to pay tuition to attend a public school, virtual public schools and hybrid schools make our learning system an attractive alternative within the public school system.

Our proprietary curriculum, online learning platform and varying levels of academic and management services, which can range from targeted programsindividual courses to complete turnkey solutions. Additionally, withoutonline schools, are offered to our charter school, school district and private school partners. Virtual public schools and hybrid schools under turnkey management contracts (Managed Schools) account for approximately 81% of our revenue. For the requirement of a physical classroom, virtual schools can be scaled quickly to accommodate a large dispersed student population, and allow more capital resources to be allocated towards teaching, curriculum and technology rather than towards a physical infrastructure.

For the2010-112011-12 school year, we will manage virtual public schools or hybrid schools in 2729 states and the District of Columbia, including newColumbia. In July 2010, through our acquisition of KC Distance Learning, Inc. (KCDL), we added iQ Academies and now manage these programs in five states where we also manage other virtual public schools. These managed schools in two new states, Massachusetts and Michigan. For the most part, these schoolsgenerally are able to enroll students on a statewide basis. Most of these enrollments are in virtual public schools. We are serving a growing number of hybrid schools, the first of which opened in Chicago in 2006. A hybrid school is a virtual public school that combines the benefits of one or two days a week offace-to-face time for students and teachers in a traditional classroom setting along with the flexibility and individualized learning advantages of online instruction. In

We are serving a growing number of schools and school districts enabling them to offer our course catalogue to students either full-time or on an individual course basis. We have established a dedicated sales team to focus on this sector and, through our acquisition of KCDL in July 2010 we extended our involvement with traditional classroom settings to the full operational management of a brick and mortar school. Specifically, the Delaware Department of Education contracted with us to assume responsibility for all aspects of the operation of the Moyer Charter School, and authorized us to serve up to 460 students in grades 6-12. This contract furthers the use of our learning systems and instructional methods in a traditional classroom setting.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we served 101,030 total enrollments, including those in recently acquired Aventa, iQ, and Keystone programs, as compared to 68,732 for the same period in the prior year, a growth rate of 47.0%. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, excluding the newly acquired programs, total average enrollments in K12 programs (public and private online schools) increased to 84,125, as compared to 68,732 for the same period in the prior year, a growth rate of 22.4%. These enrollments include public and private school enrollments as well as those in the K12 International Academy. Enrollments from the Aventa, iQ, and Keystone for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were 16,905 and contributed 24.6% to enrollment growth. Enrollments exclude students in ourdirect-to-consumer and pilot programs and enrollments acquired with AEC.
This fiscal year we acquired KC Distance Learning, certain assets of Cardean Learning Group LLC,The American Education Corporation (AEC) in December 2010, we increased the size and expertise of our sales team, added a reseller network, and expanded our course portfolio. The services we provide to these districts are designed to assist them in launching their own virtual school or hybrid programs and vary according to the needs of the individual school districts and may include teacher training programs, administrator support and our student account management system. With our services, districts can offer programs that allow students to participate full-time, as their primary school, or part-time, supplementing their education with core courses, electives or credit recovery options. We currently serve school districts or individual schools in all 50 states.

We manage three online private schools where parents can enroll students on a tuition basis for a full-time online education or individual courses to supplement their children’s traditional instruction. In 2008, we launched the K12 International Academy, a private school that we operate using our curriculum. This school is accredited and enables us to offer students worldwide the same full-time education programs that we provide to the virtual public schools and hybrid schools we manage, including the option to enroll in individual courses. This school is organized as a private international school and enrolled students can interact with their classmates from more than 60 countries. Through our acquisition of KCDL, we added The Keystone School, a private school that has been serving students for over 37 years and offers online and correspondence courses. In January 2011, we announced a partnership with the George Washington University to launch an online private high school, the George Washington University Online High School (GWUOHS). The program offers our college preparatory curriculum and is designed for high school students who are seeking a challenging academic experience and aspire to attend top colleges and universities. In April 2011, we acquired the operations of the International School of Berne and invested(IS Berne), a traditional private school located in Web International. With these additions, along with the formation of Middlebury Interactive Languages and Capital Education, we believe we have improved our growth potential and the ability to scale our business even further.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we increased revenues to $130.3 million from $96.6 million in the same period in the prior year, a growth rate of 34.8%. Over the same period, operating income increased to $10.8 million from operating income of $10.4 million, an increase of 4.3%, and net income to shareholders declined to $5.6 million from net income to shareholders of $6.1 million, a decrease of 8.6%. The changes in operating income and net income were negatively impacted by increased depreciation and amortization including the impact of new curriculum releases, systems enhancements and the effects of purchase accounting; several new growth initiatives; financial systems and process improvement costs; merger integration, and M&A transaction expenses.
Middlebury Interactive Languages
In April 2010, we formed a joint venture with Middlebury College known as Middlebury Interactive Languages LLC (MIL) to develop online foreign language courses. This new venture will create innovative, online language programs for pre-college students and will leverage Middlebury’s recognized experience in foreign language instruction and K12’s expertise in online education. Language faculty from Middlebury will work with K12 to develop and manage the academic content of the Web-based language courses, which K12 will offer through its online education programs. The new courses will use features such as animation, music, videos and other elements that immerseBerne, Switzerland serving students in new languages. The joint venture will also expand the Middlebury-Monterey Language Academy (MMLA), a language immersion summer program for middle and high school students. Our results for the nine months ending March 31, 2011 include the summer 2010 four week residential session that offered Arabic, Chinese, French, German and Spanish at four college campuses. MMLA intends to expand to six campuses for summer 2011.

On January 27, 2011, we held a Special Meeting at which the stockholders approved conversion and voting rights for the holders of the Series A Special Stock. The holders of the Series A Special Stock no longer have redemption rights and now have the right to convert those shares into common stock on aone-for-one basis and for the right to vote on all matters presented to K12 shareholders, other than for the election and removal of directors, for which the holders shall have no voting rights unless converted to common.
The KCDL businesses include: Aventa Learning (online curriculum and instruction), the iQ Academies (statewide virtual public charter schools for middle and high school); and The Keystone School (international online private school). Aventa Learning offers to schools and school districts over 140 core, elective and AP courses in grades 6-12, from credit recovery courses to full-scale virtual school programs, as well as instructional services. Aventa Learning is accredited by the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools (NAAS).

Capital Education
We provide onlineeducational services to post-secondary institutions through our subsidiary, Capital Education LLC.Education. Programs are designed for colleges and universities seeking to broaden their reach and build or expand their online presence andpresence. Our services include course development and distribution through a proprietary learning management platform, hosting and technical support, student advisory services and program administration.

We made an investment for a 20% ownership interest in Web, a provider of English language training in China. This strategic investment also gives us the option to acquire the remainder of the company within a period of five years. Web serves learners of all ages including university students, government workers, and employees of international companies. Web currently has an extensive network of learning centers throughout China. The investment will primarily be used by Web to expand its learning center network into more cities in China. Web education centers are outfitted with learning labs that include modern computer terminals and internet connections. Students can access our curriculum and other electronic learning resources from the Web centers.

Across our educational programs, families come from a broad range of social, economic and academic backgrounds. They share the desire for individualized instruction so as to maximize their child’s potential. Examples include, but are not limited to, families with: (i) students seeking to learn faster or slower than they could in a “one size fits all” traditional classroom; (ii) safety, social and health concerns about their local school; (iii) students with disabilities who are underserved in traditional classrooms; (iv) students with geographic or travel constraints; and (v) student-athletes and performers who are not able to attend regularly scheduled classes. Our individualized learning approach allows students to optimize their academic performance and, therefore, their chances of achieving their goals.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we served total average enrollments, including the recently acquired Kaplan/Insight and IS Berne programs of 141,525 as compared to 99,611, for the same period in the prior year, a growth rate of 42.1%. These enrollments include students in Managed Schools, students in programs offered by school districts (Institutional Business), and students in our Private Schools. Enrollments exclude students in our consumer, A+, post-secondary, and classroom pilot programs.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we increased revenues to $193.3 million from $134.9 million in the same period in the prior year, a growth rate of 43.3%. Over the same period, operating income increased to $8.3 million from operating income of $5.4 million, an increase of 53.7%, and net income to shareholders increased to $4.6 million from net income to shareholders of $2.2 million, an increase of 109.1%. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to lower income tax expense over the same period in the prior year.

In the last two years, we completed several strategic transactions to accelerate our growth, expand our course catalogue and service offering, extend our distribution capabilities, and strengthen our balance sheet. With these initiatives and our acquisitions of the American Education Corporation and IS Berne in fiscal year 2011 and of certain assets of Kaplan Virtual Education early in fiscal year 2012, we believe we have improved our growth potential and the ability to scale our business even further

Partnership with Blackboard Inc.

In October 2010, we announced a partnership with Blackboard Inc. (Blackboard) to develop a solution that delivers our adaptive courses through Blackboard Learn, Blackboard’s leading online teaching and learning platform.

In addition, TCV was granted the right to demand registration of the shares of restricted Common Stock it acquired in the transaction.

DevelopmentsAcquisition of Assets from Kaplan Virtual Education

In July 2011, we completed the purchase of certain K-12 assets and Insight School management contracts (Kaplan/Insight Assets) of Kaplan Virtual Education, a subsidiary of Kaplan, Inc. The Kaplan/Insight Assets included contracts to serve online public schools in Education Funding

Our annual revenue growth is impacted by changeseight states serving students in federal, stategrades 6-12. The acquisition will allow us to serve more students with multiple curriculum platforms, leverage the Insight School brand to create a differentiated product offering for “at-risk” students and district per enrollment funding levels. Due to the budgetary problems arising from the economic recession, many states reduced per enrollment funding for public education affecting manyleverage our existing virtual academy operations. The Kaplan/Insight Assets are being integrated with our online charter school and private school operations. As part of the virtual public schools we serve. While the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA)acquisition agreement, Kaplan Inc. has provided additional fundsagreed not to states, it has not fully offset the state funding reductions. Thus, the net impact to funding was negative and had a negative effect on both revenue and income for our fiscal years 2009 and 2010. Our financial results reflect these reductions, ARRA funds, and expense reductions that we undertookengage in order to mitigate the impact of the funding reductions. In August 2010, the Education Jobs and Medicaid Assistance Act was enacted into law, providing $10 billion in federal aid for schools including some of the schools we serve. Notwithstanding this additional aid, net reductions in school funding have negatively affected both revenue and income for our fiscal year 2011. At this time, many states still have budget issues. The specific level of federal, state and district funding for the coming years is not yet known, and taken as a whole, it is reasonable to believe that a number of the public schools we serve could experience lower per enrollment fundingsimilar efforts in the future.
Strategic Marketing and Student Recruiting Initiatives
We continue to pursue new opportunities to support the openingK-12 marketplace for a period of virtual public schools, hybrid schools, district online programs and classroom-based programs, as well as raise enrollment caps that currently limit growth in some existing programs. In addition, we are developing new partnerships with colleges and universities for our post-secondary online services offering under Capital Education. As we are successful in these efforts, we will invest in marketing to build awareness and to grow student enrollment. The nature and timing of these events may result in higher fourth fiscal quarter marketing expenses with the corresponding increase in revenue occurring in future periods.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, the

In addition, we have a working capital line of credit available under which we may borrow up to $35 million. There were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit agreement as of March 31, 2011. We financed our capital expenditures and acquisitions during the ninethree months ended March 31,September 30, 2011 primarily with cash generated from operations and capital lease financing.

We have a $35 million line of credit with PNC Bank that expires December 2012. As of September 30, 2011 no borrowings were outstanding on the line of credit and approximately $0.3 million was reserved for a letter of credit.

In August 2011, we entered intoamended our equipment lease line of credit with PNC Equipment Finance, LLC to increase the amount available for new purchases to $18 million with an agreement with Technology Crossover Ventures (TCV) for theirexpiration date of August 2012. The interest rate on the borrowings is set at the time of borrowing based upon interest rates in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15.

the related liability in capital lease obligations. In addition, we have pledged the assets financed with the equipment lease line to secure the amounts outstanding.

Our cash requirements consist primarily ofday-to-day operating expenses, capital expenditures and contractual obligations with respect to facility leases, capital equipment leases and other operating leases. We expect capital expenditures for fiscal year 2011 of approximately $42 million including expenditures for additional courses, new releases of existing courses, foreign language courses developed in our MIL joint venture, and internal systems enhancements and software purchases to support our growth, the integration of KCDL, and a second data center. We also expect expenditures for computers provided for use by students of approximately $15 million to support growth in virtual school enrollments. We expect to be able to fund these capital expenditures with cash on hand, cash generated from operations and capital lease financing. As of March 31, 2011, advances for additional purchases are no longer available under our existing capital lease line of credit. We expect to use cash on hand, or renew our line of credit, to pay for future purchases. We lease all of our office facilities. We expect to make future payments on existing leases from cash generated from operations.

The contingent consideration of $6.8 million was not paid and the escrowed funds were released back to the Company. The $15.0 million advance under our line of credit was subsequently repaid.
We believe that the combination of funds currently available including the subsequent funded investment by TCV, and funds to be generated from operations will be adequate to finance our ongoing operations for the foreseeable future. In addition, we continue to explore acquisitions, strategic investments, and joint ventures related to our business that we may acquire using cash, stock, debt, contribution of assets or a combination thereof.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

At March 31,September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010,2011, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $40.1$133.5 million and $81.8$193.1 million, respectively. Our excess cash has been invested primarily in U.S. Treasury money market funds although we may also invest in money market accounts, government securities, corporate debt securities and similar investments. Future interest and investment income is subject to the impact of interest rate changes and we may be subject to changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates. At March 31,September 30, 2011, a 1% gross increase in interest rates earned on cash and cash equivalents would result in an$1.3 million annualized increase of $0.4 million in interest income.

Our short-term debt obligations under our revolving credit facility are subject to interest rate exposure. As of March 31, 2011,exposure; however, as we had no amounts were outstanding balance on this facility and $15 million outstanding as of December 31, 2010 was repaid from cash generated by operating activities.

during the three months ended September 30, 2011, fluctuations in interest rates had no impact on our interest expense.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We currently operate in several foreign countries. In the past,countries, but we diddo not transact a material amount of business in a foreign currency and therefore fluctuations in exchange rates didwill not have a material impact on our financial statements. However, we continue to pursueare pursuing additional opportunities in international markets.markets and expect our international presence to grow. If we enter into any material transactions in a foreign currency or establish or acquire any subsidiaries that measure and record their financial condition and results of operation in a foreign currency, we will be exposed to currency transaction riskand/or currency translation risk. Exchange rates between U.S. dollars and many foreign currencies have fluctuated significantly over the last few years and may continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, we may decide in the future to undertake hedging strategies to minimize the effect of currency fluctuations on our financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined inRule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As described in Item 9A of our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010,2011, a material weakness was identified relating to project management of a new enterprise-wide financial system (“ERP”) and the resulting effects on the timeliness of our year-end close existed in our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) relating to our accounting for complex transactionsreporting. Management assessed the processes surrounding the project management of the ERP implementation and determined that are non-routinethe ERP system implementation plan was insufficiently comprehensive which caused delays and non-recurring.ultimately prevented the year-end close from being completed in a timely manner. Rule 12b-2 andRule 1-02 ofRegulation S-X define a material weakness as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in ICFRinternal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of the material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, the end of the period covered by our Annual Report,2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level.

28


We carried out an evaluation, required by paragraph (b) ofRule 13a-15 orRule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined inRule 13a-15(e) orRule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report onForm 10-Q. Based on this review, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31,September 30, 2011 as the material weakness identified as of June 30, 20102011 still exists.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As described in Item 9Aa result of management’s evaluation of our Annual Reportinternal control over financial reporting, management identified a material weakness in our internal control. Specifically, management concluded that a material weakness relating to project management of a new enterprise-wide financial system (“ERP”) and the resulting effects onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, management has been undertaking improvementstimeliness of our year-end and quarterly close process existed in our internal control over financial reportingreporting.

Management has assessed the processes surrounding the project management of the ERP implementation and our accounting proceduresdetermined that the ERP system implementation plan was insufficiently comprehensive which caused delays and practices generally. Specifically:

• We hired an external candidate for the newly created Senior Vice President and Controller position who has extensive experience with the technical accounting skills required by K12;
• We promoted several internal candidates to positions of increased responsibility and have improved processes and workflows;
• Management has approved the addition of several new positions to our financeultimately prevented the year-end close from being completed in a timely manner. To address implementation challenges, external resources and Company information technology and accounting staff which we are in the process of filling from internal resources and outside recruitment efforts (including the possibility of using external staffing firms);
• We have engaged a “Big Four” accounting firm to provide consulting services to our finance and accounting staff regarding process improvement opportunities, best practices and relevant training;
• The initial phase of our Oracle enterprise system went “live” on April 1, 2011, a very important first step in the ongoing implementation of an enterprise-wide financial management solution to improve our overall accounting function;
• We are arranging for additional internal training of our finance staff as to GAAP requirements and SEC guidance in connection with accounting for complex, non-routine and non-recurring transactions; and
• We outsourced our internal audit department to a third party provider.

Management believes the measures that have been implementedengaged in intensive quality control and checking of the new ERP system, including the interfaces with the multiple accounting systems inherited with our recent acquisitions to remediateperform the year end close and ensure accurate financial reporting. The Company has completed its initial implementation and anticipates future enhancements and updates to the new ERP system. The Company will thoroughly review and improve its system implementation plans and related processes that impact future system implementations, enhancements and updates.

This control deficiency could have resulted in a material misstatement to the interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected as of the initial filing date deadline. Accordingly, management determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness in our ICFR concerning our accounting for complex, non-routine and non-recurring transactions have had a material impact on our internal control over financial reporting since Juneas of September 30, 2010, and anticipates that these measures and other ongoing enhancements will continue to improve our internal control over financial reporting in future periods.

2011.

During the ninethree months ended March 31,September 30, 2011, in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) ofRule 13a-15 orRule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, the effort to remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter has had a positive effect on our internal control over financial reporting. Management anticipates that these measures and other ongoing enhancements will continue to have a positive impact on our internal control over financial reporting in future periods. On April 1, 2011, the Company completed the initial step in a multi-phased implementation of an Oracle ERP accounting system, when the system went “live”. Certain modules and functionality will be phased in over the remainder of the year. Additional business units and subsidiaries are expected to fully implement the Oracle ERP system over the next nine months, and additional modules will be implemented throughout the Company over the next nine months. Notwithstanding such efforts, the material weakness related to project management of a new enterprise-wide financial system (“ERP”) and the resulting effects on the timeliness of our accounting for complex transactions that are non-routine and non-recurringyear-end close existed in our internal control over financial reporting described above will not be remediated until the new controls operate for a sufficient period of time and are tested to enable management to conclude that the controls are effective. Management will consider the design and operating effectiveness of these controls and will make any additional changes management determines appropriate.
