RENTRAK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Rentrak Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending March 31, 2007. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in our 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Note 2. Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share (EPS) and diluted EPS are computed using the methods prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings per Share. Following is a reconciliation of the shares used for the basic EPS and diluted EPS calculations (in thousands):

Note 3. Business Segments, Significant Suppliers and Major Customers
We operate in two business segments, our Pay-Per-Transaction (PPT) and Advanced Media and Information (AMI) operating divisions, and, accordingly, we report certain financial information by individual segment under this structure. The PPT Division focuses on managing our business operations that facilitate the delivery of home entertainment content products and related rental and sales information for that content to our Participating Retailers on a revenue sharing basis. The AMI Division concentrates on the management and growth of our Essentials Suite of business intelligence services, primarily offered on a recurring subscription basis, which are no longer in the early stages, as well as operating our direct revenue sharing (DRS) services.
We did not have any revenues from our Other Division in the first three quarters of fiscal 2007 as Supply Chain Essentialsä, OnDemand Essentialsä and Retail Essentialsä moved from the Other Division to the AMI Division during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Accordingly, revenue related to these products in the first three quarters of fiscal 2006 was reclassified to the AMI Division for comparison purposes.
Assets are not specifically identified by segment as the information is not used by the chief operating decision maker to measure the segments performance.

There were no other Program Suppliers who provided product that accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 or 2005. Although management does not believe that the relationships with the significant Program Suppliers will be terminated in the near term, a loss of any one of these suppliers could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
There were no customers that accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 or 2005.
Note 4. Stock-Based Compensation
Adoption of SFAS No. 123R
Effective April 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. We elected to use the modified prospective transition method as provided by SFAS No. 123R and, accordingly, financial statement amounts for the prior periods presented in this Form 10-Q have not been restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing stock-based compensation. Under this method, the provisions of SFAS No. 123R apply to all awards granted or modified after the date of adoption. In addition, the unrecognized expense of awards not yet vested at the date of adoption is recognized in net income in the periods after the date of adoption using the Black-Scholes valuation method over the remainder of the requisite service period. Prior to April 1, 2006, we accounted for stock options using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. See also Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Part I, Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We provided disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, had been applied in measuring compensation expense in prior periods as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

No stock-based compensation was capitalized as a part of an asset during the three or nine months ended December 31, 2006 or 2005.
To determine the fair value of stock options granted, we used the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions:
|
Three and Nine |
|
|
Risk-free interest rate |
|
4.16% - 4.49% |
|
Expected dividend yield |
|
|
|
Expected lives |
|
6.39 - 8.58 years |
|
Expected volatility |
|
64.87% - 70.08% |
|
There were no options granted in the three or nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006.
The risk-free rate used is based on the U.S. Treasury yield over the estimated term of the options granted. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the expected term was estimated based on historical experience. Under SFAS No. 123R, our option pricing model will utilize the simplified method accepted under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 to estimate the expected term for all option grants issued prior to December 31, 2007. We are currently in the process of evaluating historical experience and other information in order to refine our methods to estimate the expected term for all options granted after December 31, 2007. The expected volatility for options granted is calculated based on our historical volatility over the prior seven year period. We have not paid dividends in the past and we do not expect to pay dividends in the future and, therefore, the expected dividend rate is 0%.
Effective June 15, 2006, our Board of Directors (the Board), upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, approved the grant of 9,000 deferred stock units (DSUs) to each of our five non-employee directors in lieu of the annual grants of stock options that had been in place under the 1997 Equity Participation Plan. The DSUs represent the right to receive an equal number of shares of our Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of our 2005 Stock Incentive Plan on a deferred basis in compliance with the terms of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The awards of DSUs will vest in full on June 15, 2007, provided that the recipient continues to be a non-employee director on that date, and provided further that the DSUs will fully vest upon termination of the recipients service on the Board due to death or disability or a change in control of Rentrak Corporation before that date. The awards of DSUs will be payable following the recipients ceasing to be a director.
Total compensation expense related to DSUs of $452,000, was calculated based on the fair value on the date of grant as if the stock was vested. We recorded an expense of $113,000 and $245,000, respectively, during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006, with the remaining $207,000 of related compensation to be recognized over the remaining vesting period for these awards at the rate of approximately $113,000 per quarter through June 15, 2007.
9
We amortize stock-based compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the individual award, which is the requisite service period. We have not reduced the stock-based compensation for estimated forfeitures as there is no basis for estimating future forfeitures as most unvested options are held by members of senior management and the non-employee Directors.
Shares to be issued under stock-based awards will come from authorized but unissued shares.
The following reconciles what certain operating results would have been without the effects of applying SFAS No. 123R in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Stock Incentive Plan
The Rentrak Corporation 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2005 Plan) replaced the 1997 Non-Officer Employee Stock Option Plan and the 1997 Equity Participation Plan (the Prior Plans).
Under the 2005 Plan, we may grant incentive or nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock or units with time-based vesting, performance shares with vesting tied to performance goals and other equity-based awards to eligible participants, including our officers, other key employees, our non-employee directors and certain consultants. Up to a total of 1.0 million shares of our common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2005 Plan, subject to adjustment for changes in capitalization. In addition, shares covered by outstanding stock options under the Prior Plans that are cancelled, terminate or otherwise expire without being exercised become available for grants of new awards under the 2005 Plan.
Our equity-based plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board, which determines the terms and conditions of awards made under the plans. Generally, options granted under the plans vest over periods of one to four years and expire ten years after the date of grant.
As of December 31, 2006, awards covering 904,750 shares of our common stock remained available for grant under our 2005 Plan and 2,278,152 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2005 Plan and the Prior Plans combined.

Note 5. Related Party Transactions
On January 25, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement with F. Kim Cox, our former President and Secretary, whereby he is assisting us with strategic planning and product development issues. Pursuant to the agreement, we pay Mr. Cox $25,000 per month from February 2005 through March 2007. We paid Mr. Cox a total of $75,000 and $225,000, respectively, pursuant to this agreement in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
Note 6. Repurchase of Shares
During the first nine months of fiscal 2007, we repurchased a total of 193,500 shares of our common stock at an average price of $10.07 per share, which totaled $1.9 million. The stock repurchase plan, approved by our Board of Directors in January 2006, authorized the purchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock and does not have an expiration date. At December 31, 2006, 806,500 shares remained available for repurchase under this plan.
Note 7. Renovation of Corporate Headquarter Office and State of Oregon and City of Portland Loans and Grant
In connection with our corporate headquarter office renovations, we received cash-based rent incentives of $0.9 million from the lessor based on our qualified expenditures. These amounts will be amortized against rental expense over the term of the lease, which began January 1, 2007. See also Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Part I, Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
In addition, in June 2006, we received commitments for conditional loans from the State of Oregon and the Portland Development Commission (PDC) for funding in the amounts of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Additionally, we received a commitment for a conditional grant from the PDC for $58,000. The loan from the PDC of $0.7 million does not bear interest until it becomes due and contains provisions relating to forgiveness if we meet certain requirements. If the loan is not forgiven, it will accrue interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum beginning on the date that it becomes due. However, if the loan is forgiven, no interest will accrue. The loan from the State of Oregon of $0.2 million bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum and contains provisions relating to forgiveness if we meet certain requirements. These funds were used to pay for leasehold improvements associated with our corporate headquarters and were provided to
11
us as an incentive to maintain our corporate headquarters in Portland, Oregon rather than relocating to another state. Through December 31, 2006, we received a majority of these funds from these agencies as our renovations are substantially complete. We recorded these funds as Notes Payable on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2006.
Note 8. Disposal of Assets
During the second quarter of fiscal 2007, we retired and/or disposed of fixed assets which were being replaced by new assets associated with our renovations (see Note 7). The gross value of the assets was $1.3 million; however, since most of these assets were fully depreciated, the amount of the loss associated with the disposals was approximately $33,000 and was included as a component of selling and administrative expense.
Note 9. Line of Credit Amendment
In December 2006, we amended our line of credit agreement. The amendment extended the maturity date of the agreement to December 1, 2007 from December 1, 2006 and also lowered one of the interest rate options to LIBOR plus 1.5% from LIBOR plus 2.0%.
Note 10. Exercise of Warrant
On November 9, 2006, we issued 12,705 shares of our common stock in full satisfaction of a common stock purchase warrant covering a total of 30,000 shares issued as partial consideration for investment banking services pursuant to a letter agreement entered into in 2002. The warrant exercise price of $7.50 per share, or a total of $225,000, was satisfied through the tender of the balance of 17,295 shares covered by the warrant with a then current market price of $13.00 per share.
Note 11. New Accounting Pronouncements
SFAS No. 158
In September 2006,the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, which requires employers to recognize on their balance sheets the funded status of pension and other postretirement benefit plans, effective December 31, 2006 for calendar year-end companies. In addition, SFAS No. 158 requires fiscal year-end measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations, eliminating the use of earlier measurement dates currently permissible, effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. We do not have any defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans and, accordingly, the adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 158 will not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.
SFAS No. 157
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. While we are still analyzing the effects of applying SFAS No. 157, we believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, which addresses how the effects of prior-year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying misstatements in current-year financial statements. SAB No. 108 requires companies to quantify misstatements using both the balance sheet and income statement approaches and to evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying an error that is material in light of relevant quantitative and qualitative factors. SAB No. 108 is effective for annual financial statements
12
covering the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. We are currently analyzing the effects of adopting SAB No. 108.
FASB Staff Position No. AUG AIR-1
In September 2006, the FASB issued Staff Position No. AUG AIR-1, Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities, which prohibits accruing for the future cost of periodic major overhauls and planned maintenance of plant and equipment in annual and interim periods. This Staff Position is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and must be retrospectively applied. We do not accrue for such costs in annual or interim periods and, accordingly, the adoption of this Staff Position will not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.
FASB Interpretation No. 48
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which defines the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the taxing authority. Interpretation No. 48 applies to all tax positions accounted for under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Interpretation No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Upon adoption, we will adjust our financial statements to reflect only those tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained as of the adoption date. Any adjustment will be recorded directly to our beginning retained earnings balance in the period of adoption and reported as a change in accounting principle. We are currently analyzing the effects of adopting Interpretation No. 48.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward Looking Statements
Certain information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations regarding revenue growth, gross profit margin and liquidity) constitute forward looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward looking statements may be identified by the use of forward looking words such as may, will, expects, intends, anticipates, estimates or continues or the negative thereof or variations thereon or comparable terminology. The following factors are among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward looking statements: our ability to retain and grow our customer base of retailers participating in the Pay-Per-Transaction system (the PPT System) (Participating Retailers) and customers for our business intelligence software and services; the financial stability of the Participating Retailers and their performance of their obligations under our PPT System; business conditions and growth in the video industry and general economic conditions, both domestic and international; customer demand for movies in various media formats subject to company guarantees; competitive factors, including increased competition, expansion of revenue sharing programs other than the PPT System by motion picture studios or other licensees or owners of the rights to certain video programming or video game publishers (Program Suppliers) and new technology; the continued availability of digital videodiscs (DVDs), video games and videocassettes (Cassettes) (collectively Units) leased/licensed to home video specialty stores and other retailers from Program Suppliers; the loss of significant Program Suppliers; our ability to successfully develop and market new services, including our business intelligence services, to create new revenue streams; and non-renewal of our line of credit. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q further describes some of these factors. In addition, some of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations are discussed in Item 1A to our fiscal 2006 Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2006. These risk factors have not significantly changed since the filing of the fiscal 2006 Form 10-K.
Business Trends
Our corporate structure includes separate Pay-Per-Transaction (PPT) and Advanced Media and Information (AMI) operating divisions and, accordingly, we report certain financial information by individual segment under this structure.
Our PPT Division focuses on managing our business operations that facilitate the delivery of home entertainment content products (DVDs, cassettes, video games, etc.) and related rental and sales information for the content to home video specialty stores and other retailers, on a revenue sharing basis. We lease product from various suppliers, typically motion picture studios. Under our PPT System, retailers sublease that product from us and rent it to consumers. Retailers then share a portion of each retail rental transaction with us and the studio. Since we collect, process and analyze rental and sales information at the title level, we report that information to both the studio and the respective retailers.
Our AMI Division concentrates on the management and growth of our Essentials Suite of business intelligence services which are no longer in the development stage, as well as operating our direct revenue sharing (DRS) services. Our Essentials Suite software and services, offered on a recurring subscription basis, provide unique data collection, management, analysis and reporting functions, resulting in business intelligence information valuable to our clients. Our DRS services collect, track, audit and report the results to our suppliers under established agreements on a fee for service basis. During the first quarter of fiscal 2007, Supply Chain Essentialsä, OnDemand Essentialsä and Retail Essentialsä moved from the Other Division to the AMI Division as these lines were considered to be no longer in the development stage.
14
The PPT Division
The financial results from the PPT Division continue to be affected by the changing dynamics in the home video and game rental market. This market is highly competitive and influenced greatly by consumer spending patterns and behaviors. The end consumer has a wide variety of choices from which to select their entertainment content. Some examples include renting Units of product from our Participating Retailers, ordering product direct via online subscriptions and/or online distributors, subscribing to at-home movie channels, purchasing and owning the unit directly or selecting an at-home pay-per-view option. Our PPT system focuses on the traditional brick and mortar retailer. We believe that our system successfully addresses the many choices available to consumers and affords our Participating Retailers the opportunity to stock their stores with a wider selection of titles and a greater supply of popular box office releases. Most of our arrangements are structured so that most Participating Retailers pay minimal upfront fees and lower per transaction fees in exchange for ordering all Units offered by a particular Program Supplier (referred to as output programs). Since these programs usually result in more overall Units rented, our Retailers revenue and the corresponding share with the studios have increased. These programs are, in part, an economic response to the changing dynamics of the home video rental market. We expect the growth of these output programs to continue, and believe that they will be financially beneficial for the Participating Retailers, Program Suppliers and us.
Our base of Participating Retailers continues to be strong and we are implementing strategies to obtain new Participating Retailers and Program Suppliers in an effort to further stabilize and grow our overall PPT revenue and earnings streams.
We continue to be in good standing with all of our Program Suppliers and we make on-going efforts to enhance those business relationships through improvement of current services offered and the development of new service offerings. We are also continually seeking to develop business relationships with new Program Suppliers. In September 2003, we entered into a combined DVD/VHS revenue sharing program with one of the worlds largest studios that has resulted in their becoming one of our largest Program Suppliers representing 17% and 26% of our total revenues, respectively, in the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. Also, in November 2005, based on our successful involvement with another major studio in Canada, we entered into a revenue sharing agreement which extends product offerings to Participating Retailers in the United States. This agreement was effective for titles released beginning in January 2006, giving our U.S. Participating Retailers access to the large volume of high quality entertainment that this major studio has been delivering for years and yielding 18% of our total revenues. Additional Program Suppliers represented 16%, 14%, and 10% of our total revenues in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006. As a result, our product mix was evenly spread among five major Program Suppliers (see Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). However, as is typical of our agreements with Program Suppliers, our relationships with these Program Suppliers may be terminated without cause upon thirty days written notice by either party.
AMI and Other Divisions
We are also allocating significant resources towards our business intelligence service offerings, both those services that are currently operational as well as those that are in various stages of development. Our suite of business intelligence services has been well received in the various targeted markets to date, as our offerings fit well with the needs identified by those market participants. Our Essentialsäbusiness intelligence service offerings which are fully operational and no longer in significant stages of development, realized a revenue increase of 28.0% during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. We intend to continue to invest in our existing, as well as new, business intelligence services in the near-term as we expand the markets we serve and our service lines, which likely will lower our earnings. Longer-term, we believe these services will provide significant future revenue and earnings streams and contribute to our overall success.
Sources of Revenue
Revenue by segment includes the following:
PPT Division
· order processing fees generated when Units are ordered by and distributed to retailers;
15
· transaction fees generated when retailers rent Units to consumers; additionally, certain arrangements include guaranteed minimum revenues from our customers. We recognize the guaranteed minimum revenue on the street (release) date in accordance with Statement of Position 00-2, Accounting by Producers or Distributors of Films, (SOP 00-2) provided all other revenue recognition criteria are met;
· sell-through fees generated when retailers sell previously-viewed rental Units to consumers; and
· buy-out fees generated when retailers purchase Units at the end of the lease term.
AMI Division
· direct revenue sharing fees from data tracking and reporting services provided to Program Suppliers (DRS);
· revenues from Box Office Essentialsä;
· revenues from Home Video Essentialsä;
· revenues from Supply Chain Essentialsä;
· revenues from OnDemand Essentialsä; and
· revenues from Retail Essentialsä.
Other Division
· revenue relating to other products and/or services which are still in the development stage, including AdTrakerä, which will capture census-level data regarding viewing patterns of on-demand advertising for reporting to marketers and advertising agencies.

Revenue
Revenue increased $2.8 million, or 11.7%, to $26.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2006 (the third quarter of fiscal 2007) compared to $24.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2005 (the third quarter of fiscal 2006) and increased $12.7 million, or 19.6%, to $77.7 million in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to $65.0 million in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2005. We realized increases in revenue across all of our product lines in both the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year.

Order processing fees increased $0.5 million, or 23.5%, and $1.8 million, or 34.7%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year due partially to two new output programs with major suppliers, which went into effect in January and March 2006, as well as increased volumes and quality of content from some of our existing Program Suppliers. These stronger product offerings resulted in higher order processing fees per Unit in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared with the same periods of the prior fiscal year. These fees increased to $1.29 per Unit and $1.27 per Unit, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to $1.14 per Unit and $1.06 per Unit, respectively, in the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year, resulting in increases of $0.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in revenues. In addition, the number of Units shipped with release dates in each period increased by 26% to 2.0 million Units and 21% to 5.3 million Units, respectively, during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to 1.6 million Units and 4.4 million Units, respectively, in the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year, which contributed to a $0.1 million and a $0.3 million increase in revenue, respectively.
Transaction fees increased $1.3 million, or 8.2%, and $6.7 million, or 16.4%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year primarily due to increased transactions related to output programs that began during the last quarter of fiscal 2006 as discussed above. Rental transactions at our Participating Retailers increased 5% and 22%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year, while the rate per transaction remained relatively flat in the current fiscal year periods compared with the prior fiscal year periods. A portion of the rental transactions were from arrangements which included minimum guarantees. Since some of the guarantee Units were released during the last half of December 2006, our overall transaction fees revenue increase of 8.2% was slightly higher than our increased rental transactions of 5% for the third quarter of fiscal 2007. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, our rental transaction volume increase of 22% was reduced by rental guarantee transaction fees previously recognized in March 2006, which resulted in a net increase in transactions fees of 16.4%.
Sell-through fees increased $0.5 million, or 15.9%, and $1.9 million, or 19.2%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher volumes of product available for sale to our Participating Retailers.
AMI Division
AMI revenues increased $0.6 million, or 18.4%, and $2.5 million, or 29.1%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year.
Our Essentialsä business intelligence service offerings, which include those services that management considers fully operational and no longer in significant stages of development, saw revenue increases of $0.3 million, or 19.5%, and $1.2 million, or 28.0%, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. Revenues related to our Essentialsä business intelligence service offerings have increased primarily due to our continued investment in, and marketing of, these offerings.

DRS revenues increased $0.3 million, or 17.0%, and $1.2 million, or 30.2%, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year due to increases in the number of transactions processed by us and the addition of new customers.
Other Division
We did not have any revenues from our Other Division in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 as Supply Chain Essentialsä, OnDemand Essentialsä and Retail Essentialsä moved from the Other Division to the AMI Division during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Accordingly, revenue related to these products in the same periods of fiscal 2006 was reclassified to the AMI Division for comparison purposes.
A new revenue stream, AdTrakerä, is still in development and has not generated any revenue to date.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists of order processing costs, transaction costs, sell-through costs, handling and freight costs in the PPT Division and costs in the AMI Division associated with certain Essentialsä business intelligence service offerings. These expenditures represent the direct costs to produce revenues.
In the PPT Division, order processing costs, transaction costs and sell through costs represent the amounts due to the Program Suppliers that hold the distribution rights to the Units. Freight costs represent the cost to pick, pack and ship orders of Units to the Participating Retailers. Our cost of sales can also be impacted by the release dates of Units with guarantees. We recognize the guaranteed minimum costs on the release date. Some of the terms of our agreements result in 100% cost of sales on titles in the first month in which the Unit is released, which results in lower margins during the initial portion of the revenue sharing period. Once the Units rental exceeds these guaranteed minimums, margins generally expand during the second and third months of the Units revenue sharing period. However, since these factors are highly dependent upon the quality, timing and release dates of all new products, margins may not expand to any significant degree during any period. As such, it is difficult to predict the ultimate impact programs with guaranteed minimums will have on future results of operations in any reporting period.
In the AMI Division, a portion of the Essentialsä business intelligence service offerings costs represent costs associated with the operation of a call center for our Box Office Essentialsä services, as well as costs associated with amortizing capitalized internally developed software used to provide the corresponding services and direct costs incurred to obtain, cleanse and process data and maintain our systems.
Cost of sales increased $2.4 million, or 14.0%, and $8.2 million, or 18.0%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was 72.5% and 68.9%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to 71.0% and 69.8%, respectively, in the same periods of the prior fiscal year.
The increases in cost of sales were primarily due to the increases in revenues discussed above.
The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was primarily due to the release of Units with minimum guarantees during the last half of December 2006. Additionally, we saw a shift in mix to product from studios with higher upfront order processing fees and sell through costs.
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to higher PPT revenue discussed above and an increase in AMI revenue as a percentage of total revenue. Revenue from our AMI Division generates higher gross margins than revenue from our PPT Division. These factors were partially offset by the increase in the release of Units with minimum guarantees during the last half of December 2006 and the shift in mix of product as discussed above.

Selling and Administrative
Selling and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits, development, marketing and advertising costs, legal and professional fees, communications costs, depreciation and amortization of tangible fixed assets and software, real and personal property leases, stock-based compensation and other general corporate expenses.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million, or 14.9%, to $6.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to $5.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and increased $2.3 million, or 14.4%, to $18.1 million in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to $15.8 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
The increases in selling and administrative expenses in the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year were primarily due to increases in compensation and related expenses due to expansion of our existing and new lines of business. In addition, the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 included $210,000 and $668,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and deferred stock units in connection with the implementation of SFAS No. 123R compared to none in the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year. See also Note 4 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
As a percentage of revenues, selling and administrative expenses increased to 23.4% in the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to 22.8% for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the increases noted above. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 23.2% from 24.3% for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased revenues over which fixed costs are spread.
Interest Income
Interest income was $0.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increases in interest income primarily related to higher interest rates and higher average cash and investment balances in the first three quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2006. The higher interest rates were due to both higher market rates and the investment of our cash in higher-yield investments. Our average combined cash and investment balance was $29.8 million and $24.0 million for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 39.5% and 36.5%, respectively, in the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to state income taxes. The 36.5% effective rate in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2005 benefited from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and capital loss carryforwards, most of which were fully utilized by March 31, 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our sources of liquidity include our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash expected to be generated from future operations and investment income and our $15.0 million line of credit. Based on our current financial projections and projected cash needs, we believe that our available sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our current operations, the continued current development of our business intelligence services and other cash requirements through at least December 31, 2007.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $8.0 million to $7.7 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $15.7 million at March 31, 2006. This decrease resulted primarily from the use of $7.3 million for the purchase of marketable securities, $2.8 million for the purchase of property and equipment and $1.9 million for the repurchase of our common stock, partially offset by $2.6 million provided by operations and $0.9 million provided by a note payable. Our current ratio was 3.2:1.0 at December 31, 2006 and 2.6:1.0 at March 31, 2006.
20
Accounts receivable, net of allowances, increased $0.6 million to $18.9 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $18.3 million at March 31, 2006, due primarily to higher revenues on our Essentialsä lines of business which led to higher balances on accounts from our Essentialsä customers.
During the first three quarters of fiscal 2007, we spent $2.8 million on property and equipment, including $0.8 million for the capitalization of internally developed software for our business intelligence service offerings. The remaining expenditures were primarily for new accounting software and costs associated with our corporate headquarter office renovations. We anticipate spending a total of approximately $4.0 million on property and equipment in fiscal 2007, including approximately $1.2 million for the capitalization of internally developed software, primarily for our business intelligence service offerings. Other capital expenditures in fiscal 2007 will be primarily for new computer equipment and leasehold improvements associated with our corporate headquarter office renovation. As further discussed below, we have received reimbursements totaling $1.8 million from our landlord, the state of Oregon and the Portland Development Commission to offset these expenditures. See also Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounts payable decreased $2.7 million to $12.8 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $15.5 million at March 31, 2006 primarily due to the timing of Program Supplier and other vendor payments.
Deferred rent, current and long-term, of $0.9 million at December 31, 2006 represents amounts received for qualified renovations on our corporate headquarters. The deferred rent will be amortized against rent expense over the term of the related lease. See also Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.
Notes payable of $0.9 million at December 31, 2006 represents loans from the Portland Development Commission and the State of Oregon related to our corporate headquarters renovations. The loan from the Portland Development Commission of $0.7 million does not bear interest until it becomes due and contains provisions relating to forgiveness if we meet certain requirements. If the loan is not forgiven, it will accrue interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum beginning on the date that it becomes due. However, if the loan is forgiven, no interest will accrue. The loan from the State of Oregon of $0.2 million bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum and contains provisions relating to forgiveness if we meet certain requirements. See also Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2006, our board of directors adopted a share repurchase program authorizing the purchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock. Through December 31, 2006, 193,500 shares had been repurchased under this plan at an average price of $10.07 per share and 806,500 shares remained available for purchase. This plan does not have an expiration date.
We currently have a secured revolving line of credit for $15.0 million, with a maturity of December 1, 2007. Interest on the line of credit is at our choice of either the banks prime interest rate minus 0.5 percent or LIBOR plus 1.5 percent. The credit line is secured by substantially all of our assets. The line of credit includes certain financial covenants requiring: (1) a consolidated pre-tax income to be achieved each fiscal quarter of a minimum of $1.00, and consolidated after-tax income not less than $1.00 on an annual basis, determined at fiscal year end; (2) a minimum current ratio of 1.5:1.0, measured quarterly; and (3) a maximum debt-to-tangible net worth ratio of 1.5:1.0, measured quarterly. Based upon the financial results reported as of, and for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, we determined that we were in compliance with the financial covenants at December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2006, we had no outstanding borrowings under this agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Except for the addition of the critical accounting policies for landlord incentives and stock-based compensation described below, we reaffirm the critical accounting policies and estimates as reported in our fiscal 2006 Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2006.
Landlord Incentives
We maintain our headquarters in Portland, Oregon. On December 2, 2005, we renewed our current lease. The new lease term began on January 1, 2007 and expires on December 31, 2016. During fiscal 2007, we renovated our headquarter offices and expanded our occupancy from 48,000 square feet to approximately 55,500 square feet. Our new lease contains provisions relating to an allowance from our landlord associated with the costs of our improvements. These landlord incentives are recorded as deferred rent and will be amortized as reductions to lease expense over the lease term. The leasehold improvements are recorded as assets and are included in Property and Equipment on the consolidated balance sheet. The leasehold improvements will be depreciated over their economic lives, which are estimated to be 10 years.
Stock-Based Compensation
On April 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted to our employees and directors, including employee stock options and deferred stock units based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, we maintained our method of valuation for stock option awards using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which we had used historically for the purpose of providing pro forma financial disclosures in accordance with SFAS No. 123. As of December 31, 2006, unrecognized stock-based compensation related to outstanding, but unvested options and DSUs was $0.9 million, which will be recognized over the weighted average remaining vesting period of 3 years.
The use of the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards requires us to make judgments on assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield, expected term and expected volatility over the expected term of the award. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent managements best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of expense could be materially different in the future.
Compensation expense is only recognized on awards that ultimately vest. However, we have not reduced the stock-based compensation expense for estimated forfeitures as there is no basis for estimating future forfeitures as most unvested options are held by members of senior management and the Board of Directors. We update for forfeitures as they occur and recognize any changes to accumulated compensation expense in the period of change. If actual forfeitures are significant, our results of operations could be materially impacted.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.
There have been no material changes in our reported market risks since the filing of our fiscal 2006 Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2006.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2)
22
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
Except as discussed below, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
During the quarter ending December 31, 2006, we converted some of our accounting systems to Oracle Applications. We have evaluated all of our key controls applicable to those systems. Most of the changes made relate to converting manual controls to automated controls. We believe that this new system improves the overall design and operating effectiveness of our internal control environment over financial reporting.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, the information in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and information disclosed in our fiscal 2006 Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2006.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On November 9, 2006, we issued 12,705 shares of our common stock in full satisfaction of a common stock purchase warrant covering a total of 30,000 shares issued as partial consideration for investment banking services pursuant to a letter agreement entered into in 2002. The warrant exercise price of $7.50 per share, or a total of $225,000, was satisfied through the tender of the balance of 17,295 shares covered by the warrant with a then current market price of $13.00 per share. We relied on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the share issuance.
