Off Balance Sheet Risk

At December 31, 2011, the Company had letters of credit outstanding totaling $9,316 as required by its workers’ compensation and vehicle liability insurance providers.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company does not generally require collateral from its customers. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable on a consolidated basis are limited due to the large number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across many different industries.  However, while not significant to the Company on a consolidated basis, four customers accounted for approximately 77.9% of FASI’s 2011 operating revenue.  Receivables from these four customers totaled approximately $5,448 at December 31, 2011.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2010, the Company ceased providing services to one of its largest customer in 2009.  During 2009 revenues from this customer were approximately $9,050 and accounted for 12.5% of FASI’s operating revenue and 2.2% of the Company’s consolidated operating revenue.  During 2010, through cessation of services, revenues from this customer were approximately $5,541 and accounted for 7.5% of FASI’s operating revenue and 1.1% of the Company’s consolidated operating revenue.  The revenue associated with this customer was low yielding and the impact on operating results from the cessation of services was minimal.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Accounts receivable and accounts payable: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value based on their short-term nature.

The Company’s senior credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.6% to 0.9% based upon covenants related to total indebtedness to earnings.  Using interest rate quotes currently available in the market, the Company estimated the fair value of its senior credit facility, notes payable and capital lease obligations as follows:
