DIGITAL RIVER, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. The December 31, 2001 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.
2. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Digital River, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
3. NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per common share is similar to the computation of basic loss per common share, except that the denominator is increased for the assumed conversion of convertible securities and the exercise of dilutive options using the treasury stock method. The weighted average shares used in computing basic and diluted loss per share were the same in each of the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. Stock options and warrants totaling 6,652,834 and 7,538,063 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were excluded from the computation of loss per share as their effect is antidilutive.
4. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but are reviewed annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. For acquisitions consummated by the Company subsequent to July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141 and 142 effective July 1, 2001. The Company has adopted the full provisions of SFAS No. 141 and 142 during the first quarter of 2002.
The Company has assessed goodwill impairment using a two-step approach based on reportable segments and reassessed any intangible assets, including goodwill, recorded in connection with earlier acquisitions. The Companys assessment has indicated that there is no impairment of goodwill or other intangibles during the first quarter of 2002.
6
Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill. The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss and net loss per share adjusted for the exclusion of goodwill amortization:

5. ACQUISITIONS AND EARN-OUT ARRANGEMENTS
In March 2002, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Innuity Acquisition Corp. (IAC), the Company purchased certain assets and assumed approximately $3,600,000 in merchant liabilities in exchange for approximately $2,400,000 in cash. The Company will amortize intangible assets acquired, consisting of customer base, non-compete agreements and technology/tradename over a three-year period. The agreement includes an opportunity for a cash earn-out based on revenue generated from the IAC assets during the 12-month period following the close of the transaction. Such amounts, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill.
In March 2002, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) between the Company and Beyond.com Corporation (Beyond.com), in exchange for 179,096 shares of the Companys Common Stock, the Company purchased those assets and assumed those liabilities of Beyond.com related to its eStores business, which manages online stores for clients. The Company will amortize intangible assets acquired, consisting of customer base and non-compete agreements, over a three-year period. The purchase was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court following Beyond.coms filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Immediately following the closing of the Agreement, the Company entered into a Post-Closing Amendment to the Agreement with Beyond.com (the Post-Closing Amendment), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to increase the number of shares to be delivered to Beyond.com under the Agreement to 222,842, in exchange for a release of certain potential claims by Beyond.com against the Company. The Post-Closing Amendment is subject to approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has objected to the Post-Closing Amendment, asserting that the increase in shares to be delivered to Beyond.com under the Post-Closing Amendment is inadequate. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court is currently scheduled to consider the approval of the Post-Closing Amendment on September 10, 2002. Beyond.com is also asserting that it is entitled to additional shares with a value of $910,000 under the Agreement pursuant to provisions of the Agreement under which Beyond.com could earn additional consideration post-closing if certain clients of Beyond.com immediately prior to the closing maintain or establish client relationships with the Company following the closing. The Company disagrees that any of such shares are due to Beyond.com under the Agreement. Of the shares issued at closing, 70,000 shares were placed in escrow to secure certain indemnification obligations contained in the agreement. The parties have agreed that 8,277 of these shares are to be returned to the Company to satisfy outstanding claims under the escrow. An additional 13,792 of these shares are subject to additional outstanding claims and will remain in escrow pending resolution of such claims; the remaining 47,931 shares will be released to Beyond.com.
The former owners of FreeMerchant.com, a company purchased by the Company in December 2001, received earn-out payments totaling $420,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The Company recorded such amounts as additional goodwill.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The provisions of this statement provide a single accounting model for impairment of long-lived assets. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
8. LITIGATION AND OTHER CHARGES
During March 2002, the Company recorded a charge for pending litigation of $2,300,000. This reserve was established based upon developments in new and existing litigation for which management determined, in the first quarter of 2002, that payment is both probable and estimable. Additionally, the Company recorded a charge of $200,000 during March 2002 in connection with its decision during the period to consolidate one of its offices.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Company notes that, except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed below contain forward-looking statements which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update this information or publicly release any revision or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report. Such factors include, among others: the Companys limited operating history and variability of operating results, expectation of future losses, risks associated with electronic software delivery, dependence on the Internet and growth in electronic commerce and Internet infrastructure development, dependence on software publishers, dependence on online retailers, system development and electronic commerce security risks, rapid technological changes, competition in the electronic commerce industry, the importance of attracting and retaining personnel, management of the companys growth, integration of acquired companies, dependence on key employees and other risk factors referenced in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Overview
The Company is a leading provider of comprehensive electronic commerce outsourcing solutions. The Company was incorporated in February 1994 and commenced offering products for sale through its clients Web stores in August 1996. From inception through August 1996, the Company had no sales, and its activities related primarily to the development of its Commerce Network Server (CNS) technology related to electronic commerce. In 1996, the Company began to focus its business development efforts on the software industry, building its inventory of software products through contracts with software publishers. In 1997, the Company began to develop software distribution relationships through contracts with online retailers. In late 1998, the Company began to offer its comprehensive electronic commerce outsourcing services in the form of a transaction fee-based e-commerce service to clients outside of the software industry. The Company currently offers more than 32,000 companies the ability to cut costs and grow their businesses by using its complete e-commerce systems and services.
The Company derives its revenue primarily from transaction and service fees associated with the e-commerce services that the Company provides to its clients. These services include Web commerce development and hosting, transaction processing, digital delivery, integration to physical fulfillment, fraud screening, customer service and merchandising and analytical marketing services. The Company acts as the merchant of record on the majority of the transactions processed and has contractual relationships with its clients, primarily software publishers and online retailers, which obligate the Company to pay to the client a specified percentage of each sale. The Company retains its transaction fee and also charges for various service fees. The Company also derives revenue from fees charged to use its software, integration, development and consulting services provided to its clients. This revenue is recognized as services are performed, except for software usage fee and certain integration and development fees, which are recognized evenly over the term of the contract.
The Company has a limited operating history upon which investors may evaluate its business and prospects. Since inception, the Company has incurred significant losses, and as of June 30, 2002, had an accumulated deficit of $106,992,000. The Company intends to expend financial and management resources on the development of additional services, sales and marketing, technology and operations to support larger-scale operations and greater service offerings, particularly with respect to the E-Business Services division. Although the Company expects to generate positive cash flow from operations in 2002, there can be no assurance that the Companys revenue will increase or even continue at its current level or that the Company will achieve or maintain profitability or generate cash from operations in future periods.
11
The Companys prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as electronic commerce. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things, maintain existing and develop new relationships with software publishers, online retailers and E-Business Services clients, implement and successfully execute its business and marketing strategy, continue to develop and upgrade its technology and transaction-processing systems, provide superior customer service and order fulfillment, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Companys current and future expense levels are based largely on its planned operations and estimates of future revenue. Revenue and operating results generally depend on the volume and timing of orders received, which are difficult to forecast. The Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenue could have an immediate adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company is also likely to continue to see revenue in its Software and Digital Commerce Services Division fluctuate on a seasonal basis typical for the software publishing market in general. The Company believes that its fiscal first and fourth quarters are seasonally stronger than its second and third quarters due to the timing of demand for tax preparation software and the holiday selling period. In addition, it is the Companys belief that software publishers generally avoid new product releases in the summer months. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of the Companys business and its limited operating history, the Company is unable to accurately forecast its revenue and believes that period-to-period comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

REVENUE. Revenue increased to $19,347,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $13,055,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $6,292,000 or 48.2%. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, revenue totaled $37,417,000, an increase of $11,315,000 or 43.3% from revenue of $26,102,000 recorded in the same period of the prior year. Revenue for the Software and Digital Commerce Services division increased to $15,104,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $9,461,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and increased to $29,801,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002, up from $19,973,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase in the three and six-month periods primarily resulted from growth in the number of the Companys software publisher and online retailer clients, including the impact of the clients gained in the acquisition of the eStore Group of Beyond.com Corporation in March 2002, as well as increasing market acceptance of electronic software delivery. In addition, results for the current year three and six-month periods include the impact of revenue generated by RegSoft.com, a company acquired by the Company in August 2001. Revenue for the E-Business Services division increased to $4,243,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3,594,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and increased to $7,616,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002, up from $6,129,000 for the same period in 2001. These increases primarily reflect the impact of the Companys acquisitions of Orbit Commerce assets in September 2001, the FreeMerchant.com assets of Network Commerce in December 2001 and the CCNow assets of Innuity Acquisition Corp. in March 2002.
International sales represented approximately 22% of total revenue in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and approximately 20% and 14% of total revenue in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
GROSS PROFIT. Cost of revenue, which consists of direct cost of services and network and infrastructure costs (both shown exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense), increased to $3,366,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3,149,000 for the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, cost of revenue increased to $6,693,000, up from $6,670,000 for the same period in the prior year. The increase for the three-month period primarily resulted from increased personnel costs in customer service to handle the additional client load along with increases in information systems and bandwidth costs. For the six-month period, decreases in customer service costs were offset by increases in information systems and bandwidth costs. The gross profit margin for the Software and Digital Commerce Services division rose in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 to 84.7% and 84.5%, respectively, from 77.9% and 76.0% for the same periods of the prior year. The gross profit margin for the E-Business Services division increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 to 75.2% and 72.9%, respectively, compared to 70.6% and 69.5% for the same periods of the prior year. The increase in margin in both divisions is primarily due to leveraging the Companys infrastructure over significantly more revenue and clients. The Company believes that Internet commerce and related services could become more competitive in the future. Accordingly, the Company may reduce or alter its pricing structure and policies in the future and any such change could reduce gross margins.
SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel and related expenses, advertising and promotional expenses, credit card chargebacks and bad debt expense, and credit card transaction fees. Sales and marketing expense increased to $8,402,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $6,480,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1,922,000 or 29.7%. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, sales and marketing expense increased to $16,415,000 compared to $13,265,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $3,150,000 or 23.7%. These increases primarily resulted from an increase in credit card fees and chargeback costs along with an increase in personnel costs, offset by a decrease in advertising and marketing expense. Sales and marketing expense for the Software and Digital Commerce Services division increased to $5,585,000 and $11,097,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $3,929,000 and $8,309,000 for the same periods in the prior year. Sales and marketing expense for the E-Business Services division increased to $2,817,000 and $5,318,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $2,551,000 and $4,956,000 for the same periods in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expense was 43.4% and 43.9% in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to 49.6% and 50.8% for the same periods in the prior year, primarily reflecting the Companys increased revenue. The Company expects that sales and marketing expense will continue to increase in absolute dollars as the Company continues to build its sales and marketing infrastructure and develops marketing programs and as volumedriven credit card expenses increase. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses are expected to decrease as revenue increases.
13
PRODUCT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Product research and development expense consists primarily of personnel and related expenses and consulting costs associated with developing and enhancing the Companys CNS and related internal systems. Product research and development expense increased to $3,289,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $2,729,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $560,000 or 20.5%. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, product research and development expense increased to $6,563,000 compared to $5,198,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1,365,000 or 26.3%. These increases primarily resulted from the discontinuance of capitalizing product development costs in 2002. In the prior year three and six-month periods, the Company capitalized product development costs related to the Companys new platform, which totaled $460,000 and $672,000, respectively. No product development costs were capitalized in the current year periods. The increase in the current year six-month period is also due to increased personnel costs, offset by a reduction in consulting costs. Product research and development expense for the Software and Digital Commerce Services division increased to $1,364,000 and $2,770,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $978,000 and $2,005,000 for the same periods in the prior year. Product research and development expense for the E-Business Services division increased to $1,925,000 and $3,793,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $1,751,000 and $3,193,000 for the same periods in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, product research and development expense was 17.0% and 17.5% in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to 20.9% and 19.9% for the same periods in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses are expected to decrease further as revenue increases.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense consists primarily of executive, accounting and administrative personnel and related expenses including professional fees and investor relations expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $1,708,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $1,005,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $703,000 or 70.0%. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, general and administrative expense increased to $3,323,000 compared to $2,102,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1,221,000 or 58.1%. These increases resulted from an increase in legal costs related to the outstanding claims against the Company. In addition, the Company has incurred increased personnel and insurance related costs in the current year periods. General and administrative expense for the Software and Digital Commerce Services division increased to $1,230,000 and $2,319,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $696,000 and $1,444,000 for the same periods in the prior year. General and administrative expense for the E-Business Services division increased to $478,000 and $1,005,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from $309,000 and $658,000 for the same periods in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expense was 8.8% and 8.9% in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to 7.7% and 8.1% for the same periods in the prior year, primarily reflecting the increase in legal fees in the current year periods. The Company expects that general and administrative expense will increase in absolute dollars over time as the Company defends its position related to legal claims and as it continues to build infrastructure to support its growth.
LITIGATION AND OTHER CHARGES. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded a charge for pending litigation of $2,300,000. This reserve was established based upon developments in new and existing litigation for which management determined, in the first quarter of 2002, that payment is both probable and estimable. Additionally, the Company recorded a charge of $200,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2002 in connection with its decision during the period to consolidate one of its offices.
AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES AND ACQUISITION RELATED COSTS. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles and acquisition related costs decreased to $1,651,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3,839,000 for the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, amortization of goodwill and other intangibles and acquisition related costs decreased to $3,200,000 compared to $8,483,000 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease is primarily related to the impact of the Companys adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, resulting in goodwill no longer being amortized (see Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). In addition, compensation based earn-out payments totaling $1,514,000 were made in the six months ended June 30, 2001. There were no compensation based earn-out payments in the six months ended June 30, 2002.
14
INCOME TAXES. The Company paid no income taxes in any reported period. The Company has incurred a net loss for each period since inception. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had approximately $86,278,000 of net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes, which expire beginning in 2009. Due to the uncertainty of future profitability, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has been recorded. Certain changes in ownership that resulted from the sales of common and preferred stock will limit the future annual realization of the tax operating loss carryforwards to a specified percentage under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Companys operations generated $7,241,000 of cash compared to a $588,000 use of cash for the same period of the prior year. The improvement is mainly due to the reduction in the net loss and improved balance sheet leverage in the current year six-month period compared to the same period last year. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2002, totaled $8,895,000. This was comprised of investments in equipment and for acquired companies totaling $5,414,000 along with net purchases of investments totaling $3,481,000. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2002 totaled $1,313,000, comprised of the payoff of a $2,500,000 note payable offset by cash received upon the sale of stock and the exercise of stock options and warrants.
As of June 30, 2002, the Company had $18,710,000 of cash and cash equivalents and $13,459,000 of short-term investments. The Companys principal commitments consisted of obligations outstanding under operating leases. Although the Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures, it anticipates continued capital expenditures consistent with its anticipated growth in operations, infrastructure and personnel. The Company anticipates that it will expend approximately $12,000,000 over the next 18 months on capital expenditures based on its current anticipated growth rate. The Company further anticipates that it will expend approximately $16,000,000 over the next 18 months on product development based on its current anticipated growth rate in operations. The Company may also use cash to acquire or license technology, products or businesses related to the Companys current business. The Company also anticipates that it will experience growth in its operating expenses for the foreseeable future and that its operating expenses will be a material use of the Companys cash resources.
In April 2001, the Company initiated a share repurchase program of up to $5,000,000 of its outstanding shares of Common Stock. Repurchases will be at the Companys discretion based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business and the market price of its shares. No time limit was set for completion of the repurchase program. Through June 30, 2002, the Company expended approximately $267,000 to repurchase its shares.
The Company believes that existing sources of liquidity and the results of its operations will provide adequate cash to fund its operations for at least the next 18 months, although the Company may seek to raise additional capital during that period. In January 2002, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to which the Company will be permitted to issue up to $100,000,000 in common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants. The sale of additional equity or convertible securities could result in additional dilution to the Companys stockholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
