STELLENT, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions in
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments have been recorded
as necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flow for the periods presented. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated
financial statements included in the Company's Fiscal Year 2002 Annual Report on
Form 10-K. The consolidated results of operations for the three and six month
periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for any future period.
NOTE 2. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of these financial statements requires that the Company make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including
those related to revenue recognition, allowance for bad debts, income taxes,
commission expense accrual, and useful lives of intangible assets and property
and equipment, among others. The Company bases its estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from the
estimates made by management with respect to these items and other items that
require management's estimates.
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Revenue Recognition: The Company currently derives all of its revenues from
licenses of software products and related services. The Company recognizes
revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition," as amended by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software
Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions," and Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements."
Product license revenue is recognized under SOP 97-2 when (i) persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, for example, a signed agreement or purchase
order, (ii) delivery has occurred, as evidenced by shipping documents and
customer acceptance, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and payable within
twelve months, (iv) collectibility is probable and supported by credit checks or
past payment history, and the arrangement does not require services that are
essential to the functionality of the software. Services revenue consists of
fees from consulting and post-contract customer support. Consulting services
include needs assessment, software integration, security analysis, application
development and training. The Company bills consulting fees either on a time and
materials basis or on a fixed-price schedule. The Company's customers typically
purchase maintenance agreements annually, and the Company prices maintenance
agreements based on a percentage of the product license fee. Customers
purchasing maintenance agreements receive product upgrades, Web-based technical
support and telephone hot-line support. The Company recognizes revenue from
maintenance agreements ratably over the term of the agreement, typically one
year.
Customer advances and billed amounts due from customers in excess of revenue
recognized are recorded as deferred revenue.
Cost of Revenues: The Company expenses all manufacturing, packaging and
distribution costs associated with product license revenue as cost of revenues.
The Company also expenses all technical support service costs associated with
service revenue as cost of revenues.
Cash and Equivalents: The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and have
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
6
STELLENT, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
Marketable Securities: Investments in debt securities with a remaining maturity
of one year or less at the date of purchase are classified as short-term
marketable securities. Investments in debt securities with a remaining maturity
of greater than one year are classified as long-term marketable securities. All
investments are classified as held to maturity and recorded at amortized cost as
the Company has the ability and positive intent to hold to maturity.
Investments in and Notes with Other Companies: Investments in other equity
securities and related notes with other companies in the software industry are
classified as long-term as the Company anticipates holding them for more than
one year. The Company holds a less than 20% interest in, and does not directly
or indirectly exert significant influence over, any of the respective investees.
One of these investments is in a publicly traded security and is deemed by
management to be available for sale. The Company uses the specific
identification method to determine cost and fair value for computing gains and
losses. Accordingly, this investment is reported at fair value with net
unrealized gains or losses reported within shareholders' equity as accumulated
other comprehensive income (loss). No sales of available for sale investments
have occurred in the current fiscal year through September 30, 2002. Investments
in other companies also include investments in several non-public, start-up
technology companies for which the Company uses the cost method of accounting.
Accounts Receivable: Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer's
financial condition and a cash deposit is generally not required. The Company
estimates its probable losses on trade receivables on an ongoing basis and
provides for anticipated losses in the period in which the revenues are
recognized. Credit losses have historically been within management's
expectations.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment, including leasehold
improvements, are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from
two to eight years, or the life of the lease for leasehold improvements,
whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when
incurred.
Goodwill: The Company recognizes the excess cost of an acquired entity over the
net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill.
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests
whenever an impairment is indicated. Impairment losses are recognized whenever
the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. Prior to
April 1, 2002, goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis over three years.
Beginning April 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer amortized.
Other acquired intangible assets: The Company recognizes an acquired intangible
asset apart from goodwill whenever the asset arises from contractual or other
legal rights, or whenever it is capable of being separated or divided from the
acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, either
individually or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. An
intangible asset other than goodwill is amortized over its estimated useful life
unless that life is determined to be indefinite. Currently, other acquired
intangible assets, representing core technology, customer base, capitalized
software, trademarks, and other intangible assets acquired through business
acquisitions, are amortized on a straight line basis over three or four years.
On April 1, 2002, amortization of workforce, which had previously been
classified as another acquired intangible asset, ceased and the net unamortized
balance of approximately $1.4 million was re-characterized as goodwill.
7
STELLENT, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset
subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and
its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Currently, intangible amortization,
which includes amortization of capitalized software and intangible assets from
acquisitions, is expected to be approximately $8.5 million for the year-ended
March 31, 2003.
The Company has completed a transitional impairment test of goodwill as of April
1, 2002. No impairment losses resulted from this transitional impairment testing
during the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2002.
The following is a summary of what reported net earnings would have been in all
periods presented, exclusive of amortization expense recognized in those periods
related to goodwill and intangible assets no longer being amortized (in
thousands, except per share data):

(UNAUDITED)
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company evaluates the recoverability of its
long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever an event or circumstances
indicate an impairment may have occurred and when net book value of such assets
exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributed to such assets.
In September 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement supercedes SFAS 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of," and was effective April 1, 2002 for the Company. This statement did not
have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company, but could
have a future effect in the event that an asset impairment occurs.
Software Development Costs: Software development costs may be capitalized once
the technological feasibility of the project is established. The amount of
software development costs that may be capitalized is subject to limitations
based on the net realizable value of the potential product. Typically the period
between achieving technological feasibility of the Company's products and the
general availability of the products has been short. Prior to fiscal year 2002,
software development costs qualifying for capitalization were immaterial and
were generally expensed to research and development costs. Beginning in fiscal
year 2002, the Company has contracted with third parties to have software
developed for the Company or has purchased software from third parties.
As of September 30, 2002, the Company had approximately $1.7 million of
capitalized software, net of accumulated amortization of approximately $0.7
million. We are generally amortizing this asset into Cost of Revenues over a
three year period. The capitalized software primarily relates to software
purchased from a third party or developed for the Company by a third party. The
capitalized software is broken down into four main projects, as follows:
- the Content Categorizer is a module sold by us for use in contributing
large amounts of text-based content. This software was purchased in the
June 30, 2001 quarter;
- the ExtraSite Server is a server sold by us and built on J2EE
architecture for high-end web site consumption. We contracted with an outside
independent entity to build this for the Company. The product was generally
released in the June 30, 2002 quarter;
- the localization of certain of the Content Management Suite of products
into French and German was done by an outside entity. These products were
generally released in the September 30, 2001 quarter; and
- the OEM group purchased third party software to enhance the Company's
development of multiple viewing and conversion products.
Translation of Foreign Currencies: Foreign currency assets and liabilities of
the Company's international subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rates
in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated using
the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the year. The effects of
exchange rate fluctuations on translating foreign currency assets and
liabilities into U.S. dollars are accumulated as part of the foreign currency
translation adjustment in shareholders' equity.
Comprehensive Income (Loss): Comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign
currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on the Company's
available-for-sale securities.
Advertising: The Company expenses the cost of advertising as it is incurred.
9
STELLENT, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
For cooperative advertising programs with some of its resellers, when the
Company receives an identifiable benefit in return for consideration, and the
Company can reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit received, the
cooperative advertising is accounted for as advertising expense. If the fair
value cannot be estimated or an identifiable benefit is not received, the
cooperative advertising is accounted for as a reduction of revenue.
Stock-based Compensation: The Company utilizes the intrinsic value method for
stock-based compensation. Under this method, compensation expense is recognized
for the amount by which the market price of the common stock on the date of
grant exceeds the exercise price of an option.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The Company's financial instruments
including cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, long-term
marketable securities, accounts receivable and accounts payable, are carried at
cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these
instruments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146,
"Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," which
addresses accounting and processing for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities. SFAS No. 146 requires the recognition of a liability for a cost
associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred
versus the date the Company commits to an exit plan. In addition, SFAS No. 146
states the liability should be initially measured at fair value. The
requirements of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that
are initiated after December 31, 2002. We believe the adoption of SFAS No. 146
will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or
results of operation.
Recently Passed Legislation: On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"), which immediately impacts Securities
and Exchange Commission registrants, public accounting firms, lawyers and
securities analysts. This legislation is the most comprehensive since the
passage of the Securities Acts of 1933 and 1934. It has far reaching effects on
the standards of integrity for corporate management, board of directors, and
executive management. Additional disclosures, certifications and possibly
procedures will be required of the Company. We do not expect any material
adverse effect on the Company as a result of the passage of this legislation;
however, the full scope of the Act has not been determined. The Act provides for
additional regulations and requirements of publicly-traded companies which have
yet to be issued.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2002
comparative financial statements to conform to the presentation used in fiscal
2003 financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on total assets
or net income as previously reported.
NOTE 4. BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding of common stock. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the
weighted average number of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares
outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of stock options
(using the treasury stock method). Common equivalent shares are excluded from
the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company
incurred net losses and therefore, basic and diluted per share amounts are the
same as all common equivalent shares are anti-dilutive.
NOTE 5. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
In the quarter ended June 30, 2002, in connection with management's plan to
reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies, the Company recorded a
restructuring charge of approximately $2.5 million. The restructuring charge was
comprised primarily of $2.1 million in severance pay and benefits related to the
involuntary termination of approximately 50 employees, with the remaining $0.4
million related to the closing of facilities and other exit costs. At September
30, 2002, no amounts remained to be paid in connection with these charges.

In the quarter ended September 30, 2002, in connection with management's plan to
reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies, the Company recorded an
additional restructuring charge of approximately $0.8 million. The additional
restructuring charge was comprised primarily of severance pay and benefits
related to the involuntary termination of 27 employees of approximately $0.4
million with the remaining $0.4 million related to the closing of facilities and
other exit costs. At September 30, 2002, $0.6 million had been accrued and
remained to be paid in connection with these charges.
The Company's restructuring charge in the quarters ended September 30, 2002 and
June 30, 2002 included an accrual of approximately $0.4 million and $0.1
million, respectively, for future lease payments, net of estimated sublease
income that relates to excess leased space. The Company based the accruals and
estimate of sublease income on consultations with real estate professionals in
each of the markets where the properties are located to determine the best
estimate of the accrual. If real estate markets worsen and the Company is not
able to sublease the properties as expected, additional adjustments to the
accrual may be required, which would result in additional restructuring costs in
the period in which such determination is made. Likewise, if the real estate
market strengthens, and the Company is able to sublease the properties earlier
or at more favorable rates than projected, adjustments to the accrual may be
required that would increase net income in the period in which such
determination is made.
NOTE 6. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
On May 29, 2002, the Company's Board of Directors approved, adopted and entered
into, a shareholder rights plan. The plan is similar to plans adopted by many
other companies, and was not adopted in response to any attempt to acquire the
Company.
The plan is designed to enable the Company's stockholders to realize the full
value of their investment by providing for fair and equal treatment of all
stockholders in the event that an unsolicited attempt is made to acquire the
Company. Adoption of the shareholder rights plan is intended to guard
shareholders against abusive and coercive takeover tactics.
Under the plan, shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 13,
2002, received one right to purchase one-hundredth of a share of a newly created
series of preferred stock at an exercise price of $75. The rights were issued as
a nontaxable dividend and will expire on June 13, 2012, unless earlier redeemed
or exchanged. The rights are not immediately exercisable and will become
exercisable only upon the occurrence of a person or group acquiring fifteen
percent or more of the Company's common stock. If a person or group acquires
fifteen percent or more of the Company's common stock, then all rights holders
except the acquirer will be entitled to acquire shares of the Company's common
stock having a value of twice the exercise price. The intended effect is to
discourage acquisitions of fifteen percent or more of the Company's common stock
without negotiation with the board of directors.
NOTE 7. ACQUISITION
On April 3, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain
liabilities of Kinecta Corporation, a provider of software infrastructure for
digital networks, for approximately $2.5 million in cash.
NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In October 2002, the Company terminated 28 employees as part of a plan to reduce
its costs. The restructuring costs are anticipated to be approximately $0.3
million to $0.4 million and to be comprised primarily of severance pay and
benefits.

OVERVIEW
We develop, market, and service content management software with the primary
focus of helping organizations derive maximum value from their content that is
created in the normal course of business such as Microsoft Office documents, Web
pages, images, graphics, multimedia, CAD, and other files. Customers deploy the
Stellent Content Management System to help them leverage this enterprise content
while streamlining the process of obtaining or accessing content from content
creators and delivering it to content consumers --employees, partners, and
customers -- so that informed, timely decisions can be made. In order to
accomplish this mission, the Stellent Content Management System fits seamlessly
into existing business processes as well as into the IT infrastructure. The
Stellent Content Management System can be deployed to satisfy immediate needs at
a line of business or departmental level as well as strategic needs at an
enterprise level. Our customers are primarily located throughout the United
States and Europe. We are responsible for developing our current business which
was founded in 1990. In July 1996, we merged with and into a publicly traded
corporation, which was organized under Minnesota law in November 1989. In
September 1999, we acquired InfoAccess, Inc. in a transaction accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests. In July 2000, we acquired the Information Exchange
Division (now called Software Components Division or SCD) of eBT International,
Inc. (formerly Inso Corporation) in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.
In July 2001, we acquired select assets of RESoft, a leading provider of
end-to-end content management solutions for the real estate and legal
industries. This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. On August 29, 2001, we changed our name to Stellent, Inc.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND JUDGMENTS
Certain of our accounting policies are particularly important to develop an
understanding of our financial position and results of operations. Application
of many of these policies requires management to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses
and related disclosures. In general, these estimates or judgments are based on
the historical experience of our management, prevailing industry trends,
information provided by our customers, and information available from other
outside sources, each as appropriate. Actual results may differ from these
estimates. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies
relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation
of its consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition: We currently derive all of our revenue from licenses of
software products and related services. We recognize revenue in accordance with
Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended by
SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition with Respect
to Certain Transactions," and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements."
Product license revenue is recognized under SOP 97-2 when (i) persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, for example, a signed agreement or purchase
order, (ii) delivery has occurred, as evidenced by shipping documents and
customer acceptance, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and payable within
twelve months, (iv) collectibility is probable and supported by credit checks or
past payment history, and the arrangement does not require services that are
essential to the functionality of the software. Services revenue consists of
fees from consulting and post-contract customer support. Consulting services
include needs assessment, software integration, security analysis, application
development and training. We bill consulting fees either on a time and materials
basis or on a fixed-price schedule. Our customers typically purchase
post-contract customer support agreements annually, and our prices of
post-contract customer support agreements are based on a percentage of the
product license fee. Customers purchasing post-contract customer support
agreements receive product upgrades, Web-based technical support and telephone
hot-line support. We recognize revenue from maintenance agreements ratably over
the term of the agreement, typically one year.
12
Expenses: Cost of revenues consists of technology royalties, costs to
manufacture, package and distribute our products and related documentation, as
well as personnel and other expenses related to providing services. Sales and
marketing expenses consist primarily of employee salaries, commissions, and
costs associated with marketing programs such as advertising, public relations
and trade shows. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries
and related costs associated with the development of new products, the
enhancement of existing products and the performance of quality assurance and
documentation activities. General and administrative expenses consist primarily
of salaries and other personnel-related costs for executive, financial, human
resources, information services and other administrative personnel, as well as
legal, accounting, insurance costs and provisions for doubtful accounts.
Software Development Cost: Software development costs may be capitalized once
the technological feasibility of the project is established. The amount of
software development costs that may be capitalized is subject to limitations
based on the net realizable value of the potential product. Typically, the
period between achieving technological feasibility of our products and the
general availability of the products has been short. Prior to fiscal year 2002,
software development costs qualifying for capitalization were immaterial and
were generally expensed to research and development costs. Beginning in fiscal
year 2002, the Company has contracted with third parties to have software
developed for the Company or has purchased software from third parties.
Other: Since our inception through September 30, 2002, we have incurred
substantial costs to develop and acquire our technology and products, to recruit
and train personnel for our sales and marketing, research and development and
services departments, and to establish an administrative organization. As a
result, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $61.0 million at
September 30, 2002.
Beginning in calendar 2002 and through October 2002, we have implemented several
cost cutting measures, including a reduction in work force of approximately 32%
since our December 2001 quarter. These cost controlling and reducing measures
are in response to the current economic slowdown both in the United States and
internationally and were primarily in the research and development, marketing
and general and administrative areas. Because of this, we anticipate that the
percentage of expenses as compared to total revenues represented by sales and
marketing expenses, research and development expenses and general and
administrative expenses will fluctuate from period to period depending primarily
on when we hire new personnel, the timing of certain sales and marketing
programs, the research programs that we put in place and the potential expansion
of operations. In addition, our limited operating history makes it difficult for
us to predict future operating results.
AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES
We have acquired several companies or business assets since our inception. Under
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, we have accounted for certain of
these acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting. We recorded cash
paid and the market value of our common stock issued in connection with such
acquisitions and the amount of direct transaction costs as the cost of acquiring
these entities. That cost is allocated among the individual assets acquired and
liabilities assumed, including various identifiable intangible assets such as
goodwill, in-process research and development, acquired technology, acquired
workforce and covenants not to compete, based on their respective fair values.
We allocated the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net
assets to goodwill. The impact of purchase accounting on our results of
operations has been significant. On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which became effective for us
on April 1, 2002. As a result of the issuance of SFAS No. 142, we ceased
amortizing $12.7 million of goodwill and other indefinite-lived assets as of
April 1, 2002. In lieu of amortization of these assets, we are required to
perform an initial impairment test of our goodwill in 2002 and annual impairment
test thereafter. Amortization of goodwill and intangibles assets associated with
business acquisitions was $2.1 million and $3.5 million in the three months
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $4.3 million and $6.9
million in the six months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles, long-lived assets and
related goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important which could
trigger an impairment include the following: significant underperformance of
operating results relative to the expected historical or projected future
operating results; significant changes in the manner of the use of the acquired
assets or the strategy for our overall business; significant negative industry
or economic trends; our stock price declines for a sustained period of time; and
our market capitalization declines relative to our net book value.
13
When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles, long-lived assets and
related goodwill may not be recoverable based on the existence of one or more of
the above factors, we measure any impairment based on the following methodology:
Step 1. We compare the fair value of our reporting units to the carrying value,
including goodwill, of each of those units. For each reporting unit where the
carrying value, including goodwill, exceeds the unit's fair value, we will move
on step two as described below. If a unit's fair value exceeds the carrying
value, no impairment charge is necessary.
Step 2. We perform an allocation of the fair value of the reporting units to its
identifiable tangible and non-goodwill intangible assets and liabilities. This
yields an implied fair value for the reporting unit's goodwill. We then compare
the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount
of the reporting unit's goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit's
goodwill is greater than the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment
loss must be recognized for the excess of such amount.
We completed our transitional impairment test during the first quarter of fiscal
year 2003. We did not record an impairment charge upon the completion of the
initial review. Any impairment loss resulting from testing in the future will be
recognized on the annual testing date or whenever an impairment event occurs.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001
REVENUES
Total revenues decreased by $7.6 million, or 33%, to $15.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 from $23.2 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to a
shortfall in our mobile and wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic
slowdown, which has resulted in a reduction in overall spending in information
technology initiatives.
Product Licenses. Revenues for product licenses decreased by $8.4 million, or
47%, to $9.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $18.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in revenues
for product licenses was primarily attributable to a shortfall in our mobile and
wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic slowdown, which has resulted in
a reduction in overall spending in information technology initiatives.
Services. Revenues for services, consisting of consulting services, training and
post contract customer support, increased by $0.8 million or 15%, to $6.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $5.2 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2001. Expressed as a percentage of total
services revenue, consulting services and training revenues were approximately
39% and post-contract customer support was 61% in the September 30, 2002
quarter, respectively, and 47% and 53%, respectively, in the September 30, 2001
quarter. The increase in revenues for services was primarily attributable to a
larger installed base of products.
COST OF REVENUES
Total cost of revenues increased by $0.3 million or 6% to $4.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 from $4.6 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2001. Total cost of revenues as a percentage of total
revenues was 32% for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 20%
for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Gross profit decreased by $7.9
million, or 43%, to $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002
from $18.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Total gross
profit as a percentage of total revenues was 68% for the three months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to 80% for the three months ended September 30,
2001. The decrease in gross profit dollars and percentage was primarily due to
decreased revenues for product licenses due primarily to a shortfall in our
mobile and wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic slowdown, which has
resulted in a reduction in overall spending in information technology
initiatives.
Product Licenses. Cost of revenues for product licenses increased $0.7 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $1.5 million from $0.8 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in cost of revenues
for product licenses was primarily attributable to the increased amortization of
prepaid royalties and the increased amortization of capitalized software
developed for us by a third party or purchased from a third party. The fixed
costs associated with the amortization of these prepaid royalties and
capitalized software was approximately $0.8 million in the September 30, 2002
quarter and $0.3 million in the September 30, 2001 quarter.
Amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions. Cost of revenues related
to amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions increased $0.2 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $0.4 million from $0.2 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in cost of revenues
for amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions was primarily
attributable to the amortization of capitalized software obtained in the
acquisition of the assets of Kinecta Corporation in April 2002.
14
Services. Cost of revenues, consisting of primarily personnel for consulting
services, training and post-contract customer support, decreased by $0.7
million, or 18%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002
from $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Expressed as a
percentage of total services costs, consulting services and training costs were
approximately 68% and post-contract customer support 32% in the September 30,
2002 quarter and 77% and 23%, respectively, in the September 30, 2001 quarter,
respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for services was 51% for
the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 31% for the three months
ended September 30, 2001. The increase in the gross profit as a percentage of
revenues for services was primarily due to increased utilization of existing
consulting services personnel and reductions in the number of consulting
services employees related to restructurings.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $1.9 million, or
17%, to $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $11.6
million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Sales and marketing
expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 62% for the three months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to 50% for the three months ended September 30,
2001. The decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily due to reduced
commission expense and decreased staffing related to the restructuring of our
company during the quarter ended September 30, 2002.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $0.1
million, or 4% to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002
from $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. General and
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 15% for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 11% for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. General and administrative expenses increased as a
percentage of revenues due primarily to the decrease in product license revenues
as a result of the worldwide economic slowdown, which has resulted in a
reduction in overall spending in information technology initiatives.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by $0.2
million, or 4%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002
from $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. Research and
development expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 31% for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 20% for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. The increase in research and development expenses was
primarily due to increased costs to support product enhancements.
Acquisition and Related Costs. Acquisition and related costs were primarily
related to a potential transaction with a Japanese company that would have given
us new wireless technologies and an avenue to generate revenues for our content
management products. After proceeding with the due-diligence, it was determined
that the company was not situated well enough for us to accomplish previously
established goals. The acquisition costs of approximately $0.7 million represent
expenses associated with this project, which include funds that we advanced to
the company for a trade show, product integration testing, test marketing costs
of the products and other.
Amortization of Intangibles. A portion of the purchase price of SCD was
allocated to excess cost over fair value of net assets acquired, core
technology, customer base, software, trademarks and other intangibles, and is
being amortized over the assets' estimated useful lives, of three years. A
portion of the purchase price of RESoft was allocated to certain intangible
assets, such as trademarks, and is also being amortized over their useful lives
of three years. Intangible amortization and other expense was $1.7 million for
the three month period ended September 30, 2002 and $3.3 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in amortization expense was
primarily due to the adoption of SFAS as described above under "Amortization of
Intangibles."
Restructuring Charges. In the quarter ended September 30, 2002, in connection
with management's plan to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies, the
Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $0.8 million. The
restructuring charge was comprised primarily of severance pay and benefits
related to the involuntary termination of 27 employees of approximately $0.4
million with the remaining $0.4 million related to the closing of facilities and
other exit costs.
OTHER INCOME, NET
Net interest income was $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30,
2002 compared to net interest income of $1.0 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30,
2002 and 2001 was primarily related to short-term investments purchased with the
proceeds of our public stock offerings completed in June 1999 and March 2000.
The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to decreases in the
interest rates earned by invested funds resulting from decreases in market
interest rates, which have declined approximately 40% since September 2001.
15
SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001
REVENUES
Total revenues decreased by $15.2 million, or 32%, to $32.6 million for the six
months ended September 30, 2002 from $47.8 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to a
shortfall in our mobile and wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic
slowdown, which has resulted in a reduction in overall spending in information
technology initiatives.
Product Licenses. Revenues for product licenses decreased by $16.3 million, or
44%, to $20.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from $37.0
million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in revenues
for product licenses was primarily attributable to a shortfall in our mobile and
wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic slowdown, which has resulted in
a reduction in overall spending in information technology initiatives.
Services. Revenues for services, consisting of consulting services, training and
post contract customer support, increased by $1.2 million or 11%, to $11.9
million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from $10.7 million for the
six months ended September 30, 2001. Expressed as a percentage of total services
revenue, consulting services and training revenues were approximately 40% and
post-contract customer support was 60% for the six months ended September 30,
2002 and 50% and 50%, respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 2001.
The increase in revenues for services was primarily attributable to a larger
installed base of products.
COST OF REVENUES
Total cost of revenues increased by $1.3 million or 15% to $10.3 million for the
six months ended September 30, 2002 from $9.0 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. Total cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues was
32% for the six months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 19% for the six
months ended September 30, 2001. Gross profit decreased by $16.5 million, or
42%, to $22.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from $38.8
million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. Total gross profit as a
percentage of total revenues was 68% for the six months ended September 30, 2002
compared to 81% for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in
gross profit dollars was primarily attributable to a shortfall in our mobile and
wireless OEM revenue and the worldwide economic slowdown, which has resulted in
a reduction in overall spending in information technology initiatives.
Product Licenses. Cost of revenues for product licenses increased $1.4 million
for the six months ended September 30, 2002 to $3.3 million from $1.9 million
for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in cost of revenues
for product licenses was primarily attributable to the increased amortization of
prepaid royalties and capitalized software developed for us by a third party or
purchased from a third party, and the fluctuation in product mix. The fixed
costs associated with the amortization of the prepaid royalties and capitalized
software was approximately $1.4 million for the six months ended September 30,
2002 and $0.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2001.
Amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions. Cost of revenues related
to amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions increased $0.4 million
for the six months ended September 30, 2002 to $0.9 million from $0.5 million
for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in cost of revenues
for amortization of capitalized software from acquisitions was primarily
attributable to the amortization of capitalized software obtained in the
acquisition of the assets of Kinecta Corporation in April 2002.
Services. Cost of revenues, consisting of primarily personnel for consulting
services, training and post-contract customer support, decreased by $0.6 million
or 9%, to $6.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from $6.6
million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. Expressed as a percentage
of total services costs, consulting services and training costs were
approximately 67% and post-contract customer support 33% in the six months ended
September 30, 2002 and 76% and 24%, respectively, for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for services was
50% for the six months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 39% for the six
months ended September 30, 2001. The increase in the gross profit as a
percentage of revenues for services was primarily due to increased utilization
of existing consulting services personnel and reductions in the number of
consulting services employees related to restructurings.
16
OPERATING EXPENSES
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $2.9 million, or
13%, to $20.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from $22.9
million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. Sales and marketing
expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 61% for the six months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to 48% for the six months ended September 30, 2001.
The decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily due to reduced
commission expense as a result of decreased sales and decreased staffing related
to the restructuring of our company during the six months ended September 30,
2002.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $0.2
million, or 4% to $5.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from
$4.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. General and
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 16% for the six
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 10% for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. General and administrative expenses increased as a
percentage of revenues due primarily to the decrease in product license revenues
as a result of a shortfall in our mobile and wireless OEM revenue and the
worldwide economic slowdown, which has resulted in a reduction in overall
spending in information technology initiatives.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by $0.8
million, or 9%, to $9.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 from
$8.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. Research and
development expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 29% for the six
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 18% for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. The increase in research and development expenses was
primarily due to increased costs to support product enhancements.
Acquisition and Related Costs. Acquisition and related costs were primarily
related to a potential transaction with a Japanese company that would have given
us new wireless technologies and an avenue to generate revenues for our content
management products. After proceeding with the due-diligence, it was determined
that the company was not situated well enough for us to accomplish previously
established goals. The acquisition costs of approximately $0.7 million represent
expenses associated with this project, which include funds that we advanced to
the company for a trade show, product integration testing, test marketing costs
of the products and other.
Amortization of Intangibles. A portion of the purchase price of SCD was
allocated to excess cost over fair value of net assets acquired, core
technology, customer base, software, trademarks and other intangibles, and is
being amortized over the assets' estimated useful lives, of six years. A portion
of the purchase price of RESoft was allocated to certain intangible assets, such
as trademarks, and is also being amortized over their useful lives of six years.
Intangible amortization and other expense was $3.3 million for the six month
periods ended September 30, 2002 and $6.4 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. The decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to
the adoption of SFAS as described above under "Amortization of Intangibles."
Restructuring Charges. In the quarter ended June 30, 2002, in connection with
management's plan to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies, the
Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $2.5 million. The
restructuring charge was comprised primarily of $2.1 million in severance pay
and benefits related to the involuntary termination of approximately 50
employees, with the remaining $0.4 million related to the closing of facilities
and other exit costs. In the quarter ended September 30, 2002, in connection
with management's plan to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies, the
Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $0.8 million. The
restructuring charge was comprised primarily of severance pay and benefits
related to the involuntary termination of 27 employees of approximately $0.4
million with the remaining $0.4 million related to the closing of facilities and
other exit costs.

OTHER INCOME, NET
Net interest income was $1.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002
compared to net interest income of $2.2 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2001. Net interest income for the six months ended September 30,
2002 and 2001 was primarily related to short-term investments purchased with the
proceeds of our public stock offerings completed in June 1999 and March 2000.
The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to decreases in the
interest rates earned by invested funds resulting from decreases in market
interest rates, which have declined approximately 40% since September 2001.
NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS
As of March 31, 2002 we had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$53.4 million. The net operating loss carryforwards will expire at various dates
beginning in 2011, if not utilized. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 imposes
substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses and tax
credits in the event of an "ownership change" of a corporation. Our ability to
utilize net operating loss carryforwards on an annual basis will be limited as a
result of "ownership changes" in connection with the sale of equity securities.
We have provided a valuation allowance of approximately $38.3 million as of
September 30, 2002 on a portion of the deferred tax asset because of the
uncertainty regarding its realization. Our accounting for deferred taxes and the
valuation allowance involves the evaluation of a number of factors such as our
history of operating losses, potential future losses and the nature of assets
and liabilities giving rise to deferred taxes.
Although realization of the net deferred tax asset is not assured, the Company
believes based on its projections of future taxable income, that it is more
likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will be realized. The amount of
net deferred tax assets considered realizable however, could be adjusted in the
future based on changes in conditions or assumptions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We have funded our operations and satisfied our capital expenditure requirements
primarily through operating revenues and public offerings of securities. Net
cash used in operating activities was $9.8 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2002, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $2.0
million for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The change in cash flow
used in operations is primarily due to the net loss in the six month period
ended September 30, 2002.
To date, we have invested our capital expenditures primarily in property and
equipment, consisting largely of computer hardware and software. Capital
expenditures for the six months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were $0.8
million and $2.3 million, respectively. We have also entered into capital and
operating leases for facilities and equipment.
As of September 30, 2002 we had $4.8 million in cash and equivalents, $78.2
million in marketable securities and $83.7 million in working capital. Net cash
used in investing activities was approximately $1.4 million and net cash
provided by financing activities was approximately $0.3 million for the six
months ended September 30, 2002.
We currently believe that the cash and equivalents and marketable securities on
hand will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements through our
fiscal year 2003 and for the foreseeable future thereafter. After that time, we
may require additional funds to support our working capital requirements or for
other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through public or
private equity financings or from other sources. We cannot be certain that
additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us, or on any
terms, or that any additional financing will not be dilutive.
The Company continues to evaluate potential strategic acquisitions that could
utilize equity and, or, cash resources. Such opportunities could develop quickly
due to market and competitive factors.

PRO FORMA NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
In connection with our earnings releases and investor conference calls we
provide supplemental consolidated financial information that excludes from our
reported earnings and earnings per share the effects of certain expenses such as
the amortization of goodwill and intangibles and a special charge associated
with the restructuring of our organization. This supplemental consolidated
financial information is reported as pro forma earnings and earnings per share
in addition to information that is reported based on generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). We believe that such pro
forma operating results better reflect our operational performance by providing
a more meaningful measure of our ongoing operations. However, we urge readers to
review and consider carefully the GAAP financial information contained within
our SEC filings and in our earnings releases.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Goodwill and other Acquired Intangible Assets: On July 20, 2001, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business
Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No.
141 is effective for all business combinations completed after September 30,
2001. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other
intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001, and the effective date of SFAS
No. 142.
As a result of adopting SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, the Company's accounting
policies for goodwill and other intangibles changed effective April 1, 2002 as
described below:
Goodwill: The Company recognizes the excess cost of an acquired entity over the
net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill.
Goodwill will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual
tests whenever there is an impairment indicated. Impairment losses will be
recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying
value. Prior to April 1, 2002, goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis
over three years. Beginning April 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer amortized.
Other acquired intangible assets: The Company recognizes an acquired intangible
apart from goodwill whenever the asset arises from contractual or other legal
rights, or whenever it is capable of being separated or divided from the
acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, either
individually or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. An
intangible other than goodwill is amortized over its estimated useful life
unless that life is determined to be indefinite. Currently, other acquired
intangible assets, representing core technology, customer base, capitalized
software, trademarks, and other intangible assets acquired through business
acquisitions, have been amortized on a straight line basis over three or four
years. On April 1, 2002 upon adoption of SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 amortization of
workforce, which had previously been classified as another acquired intangible
asset, ceased and the net unamortized balance of approximately $1.4 million was
re-characterized as goodwill. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying
amount of an intangible subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected
future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Currently,
intangible amortization is expected to be approximately $8.5 million for the
year-ended March 31, 2003.
The Company has completed a transitional impairment test of goodwill as of April
1, 2002. No impairment losses resulted from this transitional impairment
testing.
The following is a summary of what reported net earnings would have been in all
periods presented, exclusive of amortization expense recognized in those periods
related to goodwill and intangible assets no longer being amortized (in
thousands, except per share amounts).

======== ========
Impairment of Long-Lived Asset: In September 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement
supercedes SFAS 121 and was effective April 1, 2002 for us. This statement did
not have a current material effect on the financial statements of us, but could
have a future effect in the event that an asset impairment has occurred.
Consideration Paid to Reseller: In June 2001, the Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 00-25, "Vendor Income Statement Characterization of
Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products." This issue is
effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2001 and addresses whether
consideration from a vendor to a reseller is (a) an adjustment of the selling
prices of the vendor's products and should be deducted from revenue when
recognized or (b) a cost incurred by the vendor for assets or services received
from the reseller and should be included as a cost or expense when recognized.
We enter into cooperative advertising programs with some of our resellers. When
we receive an identifiable benefit in return for consideration, and we can
reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit received, the cooperative
advertising is accounted for as advertising expense. If the fair value cannot be
estimated or an identifiable benefit is not received the cooperative advertising
is accounted for as a reduction of revenue. EITF 00-25, was adopted by us on
April 1, 2002, and did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial
statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146,
"Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," which
addresses accounting and processing for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities. SFAS No. 146 requires the recognition of a liability for a cost
associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred
versus the date the Company commits to an exit plan. In addition, SFAS No. 146
states the liability should be initially measured at fair value. The
requirements of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that
are initiated after December 31, 2002. We believe the adoption of SFAS No. 146
will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or
results of operation.
Recently Passed Legislation: On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"), which immediately impacts Securities
and Exchange Commission registrants, public accounting firms, lawyers and
securities analysts. This legislation is the most comprehensive since the
passage of the Securities Acts of 1933 and 1934. It has far reaching effects on
the standards of integrity for corporate management, board of directors, and
executive management. Additional disclosures, certifications and possibly
procedures will be required of the Company. We do not expect any material
adverse effect on the Company as a result of the passage of this legislation;
however, the full scope of the Act has not been determined. The Act provides for
additional regulations and requirements of publicly-traded companies which have
yet to be issued.

RISK FACTORS
DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 contains certain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are
based on the beliefs of our management as well as on assumptions made by and
information currently available to us at the time such statements were made.
When used in this Form 10-Q, the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate",
"expect", "intend" and similar expressions, as they relate us, are intended to
identify such forward-looking statements. Although we believe these statements
are reasonable, readers of this Form 10-Q should be aware that actual results
could differ materially from those projected by such forward-looking statements
as a result of the risk factors listed below. Readers of this Form 10-Q should
consider carefully the factors listed below, as well as the other information
and data contained in this Form 10-Q. We caution the reader, however, that such
list of factors under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-Q may not be
exhaustive and that those or other factors, many of which are outside of our
control, could have a material adverse effect on us and our results of
operations. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting
on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary
statements set forth hereunder. We undertake no obligation to update publicly
any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes
available or other events occur in the future.
FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO PREDICT OUR
FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
While our products and services are not seasonal, our revenues and operating
results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from quarter to
quarter. If our quarterly revenues or operating results fall below the
expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price of our common stock
could fall substantially. A large part of our sales typically occurs in the last
month of a quarter, frequently in the last week or even the last days of the
quarter. If these sales were delayed from one quarter to the next for any
reason, our operating results could fluctuate dramatically. In addition, our
sales cycles may vary, making the timing of sales difficult to predict.
Furthermore, our infrastructure costs are generally fixed. As a result, modest
fluctuations in revenues between quarters may cause large fluctuations in
operating results. These factors all tend to make the timing of revenues
unpredictable and may lead to high period-to-period fluctuations in operating
results.
Our quarterly revenues and operating results may fluctuate for several
additional reasons, many of which are outside of our control, including the
following:
- demand for our products and services;
- the timing of new product introductions and sales of our products and
services; - unexpected delays in introducing new products and services;
- increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, research
and development or administration;
- changes in the rapidly evolving market for Web content management
solutions;
- the mix of revenues from product licenses and services, as well as the
mix of products licensed;
- the mix of services provided and whether services are provided by our
staff or third-party contractors;
- the mix of domestic and international sales;
- costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses;
- general economic conditions; and
- public announcements by our competitors.
POTENTIAL ACQUISITIONS MAY BE DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE OR TO INTEGRATE AND MAY
DIVERT MANAGEMENT'S ATTENTION.
We may seek to acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies that
are complementary to our business. If we identify an appropriate acquisition
opportunity, we may be unable to negotiate favorable terms for that acquisition,
successfully finance the acquisition or integrate the new business or products
into our existing business and operations. In addition, the negotiation of
potential acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses or products
may divert management time and resources from our existing business and
operations. To finance acquisitions, we may use a substantial portion of our
available cash or we may issue additional securities, which would cause dilution
to our shareholders.
WE MAY NOT BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE.
Our revenues may not grow in future periods and we may not achieve quarterly pro
forma profitability. If we do not regain our pro forma profitability, the market
price of our stock may fall. Our ability to regain our pro forma profitable
operations depends upon many factors beyond our direct control. These factors
include, but are not limited to:
22
- the demand for our products;
- our ability to quickly introduce new products;
- the level of product and price competition;
- our ability to control costs; and
- general economic conditions.
THE INTENSE COMPETITION IN OUR INDUSTRY MAY REDUCE OUR FUTURE SALES AND PROFITS.
The market for our products is highly competitive and is likely to become more
competitive. We may not be able to compete successfully in our chosen
marketplace, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition. Additional competition may cause pricing
pressure, reduced sales and margins, or prevent our products from gaining and
sustaining market acceptance. Many of our current and potential competitors have
greater name recognition, access to larger customer bases, and substantially
more resources than we have. Competitors with greater resources than ours may be
able to respond more quickly than we can to new opportunities, changing
technology, product standards or customer requirements.
WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY MANAGING OUR GROWTH.
Any failure to properly manage growth may have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition. Periods of rapid growth
that we have experienced have placed significant challenges on our management,
administrative and operational resources. To properly manage growth, we must,
among other things, implement and improve additional and existing
administrative, financial and operational systems, procedures and controls on a
timely basis. We may need to expand our finance, administrative and operations
staff. We may not be able to complete the improvements to our systems,
procedures and controls necessary to support our future operations in a timely
manner. Management may not be able to hire, train, integrate, retain, motivate
and manage required personnel and may not be able to successfully identify,
manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. In connection
with any expansion, we may increase our operating expenses to expand our sales
and marketing operations, develop new distribution channels, fund greater levels
of research and development, broaden services and support and improve
operational and financial systems. Our failure to generate additional revenue
commensurate with an increase in operating expenses during any fiscal period
could have a material adverse effect on our financial results for that period.
WE DEPEND ON THE CONTINUED SERVICE OF OUR KEY PERSONNEL.
We are a small company and depend greatly on the knowledge and experience of our
senior management team and other key personnel. If we lose any of these key
personnel, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected. Our success will depend in part on our ability to
attract and retain additional personnel with the highly specialized expertise
necessary to generate revenue, engineer, design and support our products and
services. Like other software companies, we face intense competition for
qualified personnel. We may not be able to attract or retain such personnel.
WE HAVE RELIED AND EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO RELY ON SALES OF OUR CONTENT MANAGEMENT
AND VIEWING SOFTWARE PRODUCTS FOR OUR REVENUES.
We currently derive all of our revenues from product licenses and services
associated with our system of content management and viewing software products.
The market for content management and viewing software products is new and
rapidly evolving. We cannot be certain that a viable market for our products
will continue or that it will be sustainable. If we do not continue to increase
employee productivity and to increase revenues related to our existing products
or generate revenues from new products and services, our business, operating
results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. We will
continue to depend on revenues related to new and enhanced versions of our
software products for the foreseeable future. Our success will largely depend on
our ability to increase sales from existing products and generate sales from
product enhancements and new products. We cannot be certain that we will be
successful in upgrading and marketing our existing products or that we will be
successful in developing and marketing new products and services. The market for
our products is highly competitive and subject to rapid technological change.
Technological advances could make our products less attractive to customers and
adversely affect our business. In addition, complex software product development
involves certain inherent risks, including risks that errors may be found in a
product enhancement or new product after its release, even after extensive
testing, and the risk that discovered errors may not be corrected in a timely
manner.
23
OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY.
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, or incur significant
expense in doing so, our business, operating results and financial condition may
be materially adversely affected. Any steps we take to protect our intellectual
property may be inadequate, time consuming and expensive. We currently have no
patents and one pending patent application. Without significant patent or
copyright protection, we may be vulnerable to competitors who develop
functionally equivalent products. We may also be subject to claims that our
current products infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. Any
such claim may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results
and financial condition.
We anticipate that software product developers will be increasingly subject to
infringement claims due to growth in the number of products and competitors in
our industry, and the overlap in functionality of products in different
industries. Any infringement claim, regardless of its merit, could be
time-consuming, expensive to defend, or require us to enter into royalty or
licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements may not be available
on commercially favorable terms, or at all. We are not currently involved in any
intellectual property litigation.
We rely on trade secret protection, confidentiality procedures and contractual
provisions to protect our proprietary information. Despite our attempts to
protect our confidential and proprietary information, others may gain access to
this information. Alternatively, other companies may independently develop
substantially equivalent information.
OUR PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH COMMERCIAL WEB BROWSERS AND OPERATING
SYSTEMS.
Our products utilize interfaces that are compatible with commercial Web
browsers. In addition, our Stellent Content Management System is a server-based
system written in Java that functions in both Windows NT and UNIX environments.
We must continually modify our products to conform to commercial Web browsers
and operating systems. If our products were to become incompatible with
commercial Web browsers and operating systems, our business would be harmed. In
addition, uncertainty related to the timing and nature of product introductions
or modifications by vendors of Web browsers and operating systems may have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
WE COULD BE SUBJECT TO PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS IF OUR PRODUCTS FAIL TO PERFORM
TO SPECIFICATIONS.
If software errors or design defects in our products cause damage to customers'
data and our agreements do not protect us from related product liability claims,
our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially
adversely affected. In addition, we could be subject to product liability claims
if our security features fail to prevent unauthorized third parties from
entering our customers' intranet, extranet or Internet Web sites. Our software
products are complex and sophisticated and may contain design defects or
software errors that are difficult to detect and correct. Errors, bugs or
viruses spread by third parties may result in the loss of market acceptance or
the loss of customer data. Our agreements with customers that attempt to limit
our exposure to product liability claims may not be enforceable in certain
jurisdictions where we operate.
FUTURE REGULATIONS COULD BE ADOPTED THAT RESTRICT OUR BUSINESS.
Federal, state or foreign agencies may adopt new legislation or regulations
governing the use and quality of Web content. We cannot predict if or how any
future laws or regulations would impact our business and operations. Even though
these laws and regulations may not apply to our business directly, they could
indirectly harm us to the extent that they impact our customers and potential
customers.
SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATION IN THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD RESULT IN
SECURITIES LITIGATION AGAINST US.
In the past, securities class action litigation has been brought against
publicly held companies following periods of volatility in the price of their
securities. If we were subject to such litigation due to volatility in our stock
price, we may incur substantial costs. Such litigation could divert the
attention of our senior management away from our business, which could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly in the past
and may do so in the future. The market price of our common stock may be
affected by each of the following factors, many of which are outside of our
control:
- variations in quarterly operating results;
- changes in estimates by securities analysts;
24
- changes in market valuations of companies in our industry;
- announcements by us of significant events, such as major sales,
- acquisitions of businesses or losses of major customers;
- additions or departures of key personnel; and
- sales of our equity securities.
OUR PERFORMANCE WILL DEPEND ON THE CONTINUING GROWTH AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE WEB.
Our products are designed to be used with intranets, extranets and the Internet.
If the use of these methods of electronic communication does not grow, our
business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely
affected. Continued growth in the use of the Web will require ongoing and
widespread interest in its capabilities for communication and commerce. Its
growth will also require maintenance and expansion of the infrastructure
supporting its use and the development of performance improvements, such as high
speed modems. The Web infrastructure may not be able to support the demands
placed on it by continued growth. The ongoing development of corporate intranets
depends on continuation of the trend toward network-based computing and on the
willingness of businesses to reengineer the processes used to create, store,
manage and distribute their data. All of these factors are outside of our
control.
OUR EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS HAVE SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE OVER US.
As of September 30, 2002, Robert F. Olson, our Chairman, holds approximately
10.1% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, Mr. Olson is able to
exercise significant control over our affairs. As a group, our directors and
executive officers beneficially own approximately 14.5% of our common stock.
These persons have significant influence over our affairs, including approval of
the acquisition or disposition of assets, future issuances of common stock or
other securities and the authorization of dividends on our common stock. Our
directors and executive officers could use their stock ownership to delay, defer
or prevent a change in control of our company, depriving shareholders of the
opportunity to sell their stock at a price in excess of the prevailing market
price.
WE CAN ISSUE SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL, WHICH COULD
ADVERSELY AFFECT THE RIGHTS OF COMMON SHAREHOLDERS.
Our Articles of Incorporation permit us to establish the rights, privileges,
preferences and restrictions, including voting rights, of unissued shares of our
capital stock and to issue such shares without approval from our shareholders.
The rights of holders of our common stock may suffer as a result of the rights
granted to holders of preferred stock that may be issued in the future. In
addition, we could issue preferred stock to prevent a change in control of our
company, depriving shareholders of an opportunity to sell their stock at a price
in excess of the prevailing market price.
OUR SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN AND CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF MINNESOTA LAW MAY MAKE A
TAKEOVER OF STELLENT DIFFICULT, DEPRIVING SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO SELL
SHARES AT ABOVE-MARKET PRICES.
Our shareholder rights plan and certain provisions of Minnesota law may have the
effect of discouraging attempts to acquire Stellent without the approval of our
Board of Directors. Consequently, our shareholders may lose opportunities to
sell their stock for a price in excess of the prevailing Market price.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Our interest income on cash and marketable securities is affected by changes in
interest rates in the United States. Through September 30, 2002, changes in
these rates have had a significant effect on our company. Interest rates earned
on invested funds have fallen by over 40% since September 2001. We believe that
there may be future exposure to interest rate market risk.
Our investments are held in commercial paper which is affected by equity price
market risk and other factors. We do not anticipate that exposure to these risks
will have a material impact on us, due to the nature of our investments.
We have no history of, and do not anticipate in the future, investing in
derivative financial instruments. Many transactions with international customers
are entered into in U.S. dollars, precluding the need for foreign currency
