NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements for NCI, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company or NCI) as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments and reclassifications (all of which are of a normal, recurring nature) that are necessary to a fair presentation of the
results for such periods. The information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for these periods is unaudited. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in NCIs Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2006, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The current periods results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any future period.

2. Business Overview

NCI is a provider of information technology
services and solutions to federal government agencies. The Companys focus is on designing, implementing, maintaining and upgrading secure information technology (IT) systems and networks by leveraging the Companys skills across six core
service offerings: network engineering; information assurance; systems development and integration; enterprise systems management; design engineering and software development; and eLearning. The Company provides these services to defense,
intelligence and federal civilian agencies. Substantially all of the Companys revenue was derived from contracts with the federal government, directly as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor. The Company conducts business throughout the
United States. In addition, the Company may conduct business internationally in support of federal government contracts.

The Companys operations are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among others, dependence on contracts with federal government agencies, dependence on significant clients, existence of contracts with fixed pricing, dependence on subcontractors to fulfill
contractual obligations, current and potential competitors with greater resources, dependence on key management personnel, ability to recruit and retain qualified employees, and uncertainty of future profitability and possible fluctuations in
financial results.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Income Taxes

In June 2006, FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48) an
interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS
No. 109. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective
January 1, 2007. The Companys analysis of uncertain tax positions as required under FIN 48 determined that the Company had no material unrecorded liabilities and there was no cumulative effect on retained earnings of applying the
provisions of the interpretation. Interest and penalties accrued under FIN 48 will be classified as Interest Expense and General and Administrative Expense, respectively.

Earnings Per Share

SFAS No. 128,Earnings Per Share, requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share exclude dilution and are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. The computation of earnings per share presented is for both Class A and Class B common stock.

Diluted earnings per share
reflect potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted earnings per share include the incremental effect of stock options calculated using the
treasury stock method.

The following details the historical computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (Class A and Class B).

As of September 30, 2007, there was approximately $2.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost
related to unvested stock compensation agreements. Of this amount, approximately $0.3 million is related to options accounted for under APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and approximately $2.1 million related to
options accounted for under SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. This cost is expected to be fully amortized over the next four years, with approximately $187,000 during the remainder of 2007, and approximately $748,000 during 2008,
$742,000 during 2009, $565,000 during 2010, and $170,000 during 2011. The Company issued options during 2003 where vesting will accelerate when the company reaches certain performance benchmarks. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the cost of the
options be included in the Companys Statement of Operations before or in conjunction with the vesting of options. The future amortized cost stated above does not take into account any accelerated vesting of options.

5. Acquisitions

Karta Technologies, Inc.

On June 27, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of Karta Technologies, Inc. (Karta). Karta generated
revenues for calendar year 2006 of approximately $51 million (unaudited). NCI paid approximately $67.4 million for Karta. The purchase price includes $64.8 million for Karta, $0.2 million for a non-compete agreement, $1.2 million as a working
capital adjustment and $1.2 million in transactions costs. The acquisition of Karta meets many of NCIs strategic acquisition objectives, including: opening new and important DoD market areas; expanding NCIs service offerings to include
healthcare IT, DoD medical transformation, high-end training solutions and distance learning, and modernization, readiness and sustainment engineering solutions; expanding NCIs DoD and civilian agency customer base; providing additional
valuable GWAC/MAC/IDIQ contract vehicles to NCIs existing portfolio of contracts; and adding management, professional and business development staff to NCIs team.

On June 27, 2007, Karta had net assets including identifiable intangibles with a fair value of $14.8 million. The Karta assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value under the purchase method of accounting.
As the cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired, goodwill was recorded in the amount of $52.6 million. The fair value of Kartas identifiable intangible assets as of June 27, 2007 was determined by an
independent third party.

The following table represents the final purchase price allocation of Kartas assets and liabilities at fair value:

Operational Technologies Services, Inc.

Effective January 31, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of Operational Technologies Services, Inc. (OTS). OTS generated revenues for calendar year 2006 of approximately $10 million (unaudited), all
derived from contracts with the Federal Aviation Administration. NCI paid approximately $7.9 million in cash including approximately $0.2 million in earnout payments and $0.4 million of transaction costs. The acquisition of OTS fits NCIs
strategy of pursuing companies that add new customers, specifically the Federal Aviation Administration, and capabilities to NCI and its customers and is directly supportive of our long term growth objectives for the Federal Civilian market sector.

On January 31, 2007, OTS had net assets including identifiable intangibles with a fair value of $2.8 million. The identified intangibles value was
determined by an unrelated third party valuation expert. The OTS assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value under the purchase method of accounting. As the cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired, goodwill was
recorded in the amount of $5.1 million.

In addition, the definitive agreement for the acquisition of OTS provided for certain contingent consideration.
Under the agreement, NCI agreed to pay up to an additional $2.5 million over the 18 months following closing based on achievement of certain milestones. During the third quarter of 2007, NCI paid approximately $0.2 million for earnout payments to
the prior stockholders of OTS. Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, the payment of any contingent consideration will be treated as additional cost of the acquisition and added to goodwill as the
contingencies are resolved.

6. Loan and Security Agreement

On June 27, 2007, in connection with the Karta acquisition (see note 5), the Company entered into the Second Amendment of the Companys Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) which increased the
Companys line of credit from $60.0 million to $90.0 million. The borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement consists of a revolving credit facility with a principal amount of up to $90.0 million, which includes a swingline facility with a
principal amount of up to $5.0 million. The outstanding balance of the facility accrues interest based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, ranging from 100 to 175 basis points, based on a ratio of funded debt to earnings. The credit facility expires
on March 14, 2011.

The outstanding borrowings are collateralized by a security interest in substantially all of the Companys assets. The
lenders also require a direct assignment of all contracts at the lenders discretion.

The Credit Agreement contains various restrictive covenants
that, among other things, restrict the Companys ability to: incur or guarantee additional debt; make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments, including cash dividends on the Companys outstanding common stock;
enter into transactions with certain affiliates; create or permit certain liens; and consolidate, merge or sell assets. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to: maintain a minimum tangible
net worth; maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a ratio of funded debt to earnings; and limit capital expenditures below certain thresholds.

6. Loan and Security Agreement (continued)



In conjunction with the Karta acquisition, the Company borrowed $55.0 million under the Credit Agreement. As of
September 30, 2007, the outstanding balance was $50.5 million and interest accrued at a rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis points, or 6.915%.

7. Related
Party Transactions

The Company purchased services from Net Commerce Corporation, which is a government contractor wholly-owned by Rajiv Narang, the son
of Charles K. Narang, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, under a subcontract and a blanket purchase order. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, the payments for services and expenses incurred under these
agreements were approximately $17,000 and $215,000. No amounts were paid during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 as these agreements expired during May 2006. Effective October 1, 2007, NCI entered into a new subcontract
agreement with Net Commerce Corporation with a potential value of approximately $600,000 over an initial one year term.

The Company rents office space
from Gur Parsaad Properties, Ltd. which is controlled by Mr. Gurvinder Pal Singh, a previous stockholder of Karta (see note 5) and who is now a member of the NCI Board of Directors. The lease is for approximately 34,000 square feet at $14.00
per square foot with annual escalation and expires on June 30, 2012. The lease was negotiated and signed as of June 27, 2007 in conjunction with the purchase of Karta. For the three and nine months ended as of September 30, 2007, NCI
has paid $118,000 for rent to Gur Parsaad Properties, Ltd.

Management believes that all transactions with related parties have been conducted based on
then current market conditions.

Item 2.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section entitled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. There are statements made herein which may not address historical facts and, therefore, could be interpreted
to be forward looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. The factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated include, but are not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | our dependence on our contracts with federal government agencies, particularly within the U.S. Department of Defense, for substantially all of our revenue;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | continued funding of our contracts by the U.S. Government, based on a change in spending patterns, or in the event of a priority need for funds, such as homeland
security, the war on terrorism or rebuilding Iraq;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risk of contract performance or termination;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure to achieve contract awards in connection with recompetes for present business and/or competition for new business;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | government contract procurement (such as bid protest, small business set asides, etc.) and termination risks;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competitive factors such as pricing pressures and competition to hire and retain employees (particularly those with security clearances);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure to successfully integrate Operational Technologies Services, Inc., Karta Technologies, Inc., and future acquired companies or businesses into our operations
or to realize any accretive or synergistic effects from such acquisitions;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure to identify, execute and effectively integrate acquisitions appropriate to the achievement of our strategic plans;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | economic conditions in the United States, including conditions that result from terrorist activities or war; material changes in laws or regulations applicable to
our businesses, particularly legislation affecting (i) government contracts for services, (ii) outsourcing of activities that have been performed by the government, (iii) delays related to agency specific funding freezes, and
(iv) competition for task orders under Government Wide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs) and/or schedule contracts with the General Services Administration; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our own ability to achieve the objectives of near term or long range business plans.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of these important factors are outlined under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) for the period ended December 31, 2006, and from time to time, in other filings with the SEC such as our Forms 8-K and 10-Q. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable,
we cannot guarantee our future results, level of activity or performance. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements.

In this document, unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms Company, NCI, we, us and our refer to
NCI, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

Revenue

Substantially all of our revenue is derived from services and solutions provided to the federal government, primarily by our employees and, to a lesser extent, our subcontractors. In some cases, our revenue includes third-party hardware and
software that we purchase on behalf of our clients. The level of hardware and software purchases we make for clients may vary from period to period depending on specific contract and client requirements.

Contract Types

Our services and solutions are provided under
three types of contracts: time-and-materials; cost-plus; and fixed-price. Our contract mix varies from year to year due to numerous factors including our business strategies and federal government procurement objectives.

The following table shows our revenue from each of these types of contracts as a percentage of our total revenue for the periods shown.

Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes direct costs incurred to provide our services and solutions to clients. The most
significant portion of these costs is salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits including stock compensation, of our employees directly serving clients, in addition to the related management, facilities and infrastructure costs. Cost of
revenue also includes the costs of subcontractors and outside consultants, third-party materials, such as hardware or software that we purchase on behalf of our clients, and any other related direct costs, such as travel expenses. These other direct
costs are incurred in response to specific client tasks, and vary from period to period. Changes in the mix of services and equipment provided under our contracts can result in variability in our contract margins. In general, the use of
subcontractors increases costs and decreases margin due to the fact that most subcontractors are billed as a direct expense to the customer with a lower margin than we earn on our services. Typically, hardware or software purchases may
decrease margins significantly since most of these costs are billed to the customer with little to no margin, depending on the contract.

General and
Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include the salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits including stock
compensation, of our employees not performing work directly for clients. Among the functions covered by these costs are corporate business development, bid and proposal, contracts administration, finance and accounting, legal, corporate governance,
and executive and senior management.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets includes the amortization of identifiable intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Non-compete agreements are generally amortized straight-line over the term of the
agreement, while contracts and related client relationships are amortized proportionately against the acquired backlog.

Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, total revenue increased by 42.3% or $25.3 million, over the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily due to the Karta and OTS acquisitions as well as new task orders under our
GWAC contract vehicles, primarily NETCENTS, ITES, and TEIS, as well as growth on existing programs and revenue from our acquisitions. Revenue from Karta and OTS for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $13.8 million and
$2.4 million, respectively. These increases were offset by revenue reductions due to tasks that have ended.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue increased 41.4%, or $21.6 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was
attributable to an increase in direct labor and associated indirect costs, and increases in subcontractor costs and other direct costs due to the increase in revenue, offset by a slight reduction in hardware and software purchases for our clients.
As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 86.7% and 87.2% for the quarters ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The 0.5% decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2007
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2006 resulted primarily from a decrease in subcontractor and hardware and software costs as a percentage of cost of revenue, which typically carry lower gross margins than labor revenue.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and
administrative expense increased 22.2%, or $0.7 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase is due mainly to the Karta acquisition and its associated general and administrative
expenses and higher accounting related fees and expenses, which were offset by lower legal expenses, reduced allowance for bad debt expense, and lower bid and proposal costs. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased
to 4.8% from 5.6% for the quarters ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease is due to the leveraging of our general and administrative expenses over a larger revenue base.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets was approximately $0.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $0.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase is due to the amortization
of Kartas and OTS acquired intangibles over their estimated lives.

Operating income

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, operating income was $6.3 million, or 7.4% of revenue, compared to $3.7 million, or 6.2% of revenue, for the three
months ended September 30, 2006. Operating income was higher for the three months ended September 30, 2007 due to the higher revenue volume as compared to the same period in the prior year. Operating income, as a percent of revenue, was
higher for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year due to our acquisitions, the lower percentage of direct costs from hardware and software purchases, and the leveraging of our infrastructure
costs, primarily general and administrative expenses, over a larger revenue base. This leveraging is a result of the high percentage of our revenue that comes from time-and-materials and fixed-price contracts.

Interest Income/Expense

Net interest expense was
approximately $0.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to net interest income of $0.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The change is due to using available cash and the increase in our line of credit
balance in relation to the Karta acquisition.

Income Taxes

The increase in income taxes of $0.7 million is the result of the increase in operating income and a 1.0% rate increase in third quarter 2007 compared to third quarter 2006. The effective income tax rate for the
quarter ended September 30, 2007 is approximately 39.5% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 38.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

Revenue

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, total revenue increased by 40.6% or $62.4 million, over the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily due to the Karta and OTS acquisitions as well as new task orders under our
GWAC contract vehicles, primarily NETCENTS, ITES, TEIS and VA GITTS, as well as growth on existing programs. Karta revenue for the period June 28, 2007 until September 30, 2007 was $14.3 million. OTS revenue for the period from
February 1, 2007 until September 30, 2007 was $6.6 million. These increases were slightly offset by revenue reductions due to tasks that have ended.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue increased 41.3%, or $54.8 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to
the same period a year ago. The increase was attributable to an increase in subcontractor costs, direct labor and associated indirect costs, hardware and software products purchased on behalf of our clients, and other direct costs due to the
increase in revenue. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 86.8% and 86.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The 0.5% increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006 resulted primarily from an increase in subcontractor and other direct costs, including hardware and software purchases, as a percentage of cost of revenue.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and
administrative expense increased 12.6%, or $1.2 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase is due mainly to the Karta acquisition and increased accounting and audit fees,
offset by lower legal expenses, bad debt expense, and lower bid and proposal costs. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased to 5.0% from 6.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The decrease is due to the leveraging of our general and administrative expenses over a larger revenue base.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets was approximately $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and $0.7 million for the same
period during 2006. The increase is due to the amortization of Kartas and OTS acquired intangibles over their estimated lives.

Operating
income

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, operating income was $15.8 million, or 7.3% of revenue, compared to $9.5 million, or 6.2%
of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Operating income was higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 due to the higher revenue volume as compared to the same period in

the prior year and lower general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue. Operating income, as a percent of revenue, was higher for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year due to the leveraging of our infrastructure costs, primarily general and administrative expenses, over a larger revenue base.

Interest Income/Expense

Net interest expense was
approximately $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to net interest income of $0.5 million for the same period in the prior year. The change is due to using available cash and the increase in our line of credit
balance in relation to the Karta acquisition.

Income Taxes

The increase in income taxes of $2.1 million is the result of the increase in operating income and a 0.6% rate increase. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 is approximately
39.5% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 38.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Contract Backlog

At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our estimated backlog was $722 million and $612 million, respectively, of which $157 million and, $123 million,
respectively, was funded. We define backlog as our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts over the remaining base contract performance period and from the option periods of those contracts, assuming the exercise of
all related options. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which funding currently is appropriated and obligated to us under a contract or other authorization for payment signed by an authorized purchasing agency, less the amount of
revenue we have previously recognized. Our backlog does not include any estimate of future potential delivery orders that might be awarded under our GWAC or other multiple award contract vehicles. Additional information on how we determine backlog
is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 as previously filed with the SEC.

Liquidity and Capital
Resources

Our primary liquidity needs are for financing working capital, investing in capital expenditures and making selective strategic acquisitions.
Historically, we have relied primarily on our cash flow from operations and borrowings under our credit facility to provide the capital for our liquidity needs. We expect the combination of our current cash, cash flow from operations and the
available borrowing capacity on our credit facility to continue to meet our normal working capital and capital expenditure requirements. As part of our growth strategy, we may pursue acquisitions that could require us to raise additional external
capital or increase our borrowings.

During the first nine months of 2007, we used approximately $20.0 million of cash on hand and borrowed approximately
$55.0 million for acquisitions. Our other significant use of working capital is for accounts receivables. Days sales outstanding of accounts receivable (DSO) was 92 days as of September 30, 2007, compared to 93 days as of December 31,
2006. We are continuing our efforts to reduce DSOs and improve cash flow from operations and expect this figure to decrease in the future. Total net accounts receivable were $85.2 million as of September 30, 2007.

Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility will be used to finance possible future acquisitions, to provide for working capital expenditures and for general
corporate uses. As of September 30 2007, there was approximately $50.5 million outstanding under the credit facility.

Credit Agreement:The
borrowing capacity under our Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) consists of a revolving credit facility with a principal amount of up to $90.0 million, which includes a swingline facility with a principal amount of up to
$5.0 million. The outstanding balance of the facility accrues interest based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, ranging from 100 to 175 basis points, based on a ratio of funded debt to earnings. Interest was accruing at LIBOR plus 125 basis points
or 6.915% as of September 30, 2007. The LIBOR interest rate resets monthly. As of October 1, 2007, our interest was accruing at LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The credit facility expires on March 14, 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to our Critical Accounting Policies during 2007. Refer to our Critical Accounting Policies section in our Form 10-K for the period
ending December 31, 2006 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest
rates for borrowings under our Credit Agreement. For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, a 1% change in interest rates would have changed our interest expense and cash flow by approximately $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007.

Additionally, we are subject to credit risks associated with our cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We believe that
the concentration of credit risks with respect to cash equivalents and investments are limited due to the high credit quality of these investments. Our investment policy that requires we invest excess cash in high quality investments which preserve
principal, provide liquidity, and minimize investment risk. We also believe that our credit risk associated with accounts receivable is limited as they are primarily with the federal government or prime contractors working for the federal
government.

Item 4.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various legal actions, claims, government inquiries, and audits resulting from
the normal course of business. The Company believes that the probability is remote that any resulting liability will have a material effect on the Companys financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors

In addition to those discussed in Risk Factors included in NCI, Inc.s Form 10-K, filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission NCI is adding the following risk factor.

The Company has substantial investments in recorded goodwill as a
result of prior acquisitions, and changes in future business conditions could cause these investments to become impaired, requiring substantial write-downs that would reduce the Companys operating income.

As of September 30, 2007, goodwill accounted for approximately $75.1 million, or approximately 42.7%, of the Companys recorded total assets. Under generally
accepted accounting principles, the Company reviews its goodwill for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at least annually. The
annual impairment test is based on several factors requiring judgment. Principally, a decrease in expected reporting unit cash flows or changes in market conditions may indicate potential impairment of recorded goodwill. If goodwill becomes
impaired, the Company would be record a significant charge to earnings in our financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill is determined, which may significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
