SUNGARD DATA SYSTEMS INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation:

SunGard Data Systems Inc. (“SunGard” or the “Company”) was acquired on August 11, 2005 (the “Transaction”) by a consortium of private equity investment funds associated with Bain Capital Partners, The Blackstone Group, Goldman Sachs & Co., Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., Providence Equity Partners, Silver Lake and Texas Pacific Group (collectively, the “Sponsors”).

SunGard is a wholly owned subsidiary of SunGard Holdco LLC, which is wholly owned by SunGard Holding Corp., which is wholly owned by SunGard Capital Corp. II, which is a subsidiary of SunGard Capital Corp. All of these companies were formed for the purpose of facilitating the Transaction and are collectively referred to as the “Holding Companies.”

SunGard has three segments: Financial Systems (“FS”), Higher Education and Public Sector Systems (“HEPS”) and Availability Services (“AS”). The Company’s Software & Processing Solutions business is comprised of the FS and HEPS segments. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements exclude the accounts of the Holding Companies.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Interim financial reporting does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007.

2. Acquisitions

The Company seeks to acquire businesses that broaden its existing product lines and service offerings by adding complementary products and service offerings and by expanding its geographic reach. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company completed six acquisitions in its FS segment and one in its HEPS segment. Cash paid, net of cash acquired and subject to certain adjustments, was $62 million. The allocations of purchase price for these acquisitions and others completed in the fourth quarter of 2006 are preliminary.

The following table lists the businesses the Company acquired in the first six months of 2007:

Segregated customer cash and treasury bills

   $ 48    $ 64

     15      19

Payable to brokers and dealers

     16      23
             

Clearing broker liabilities

   $ 376    $ 407
             

Segregated customer cash and treasury bills are held by the Company on behalf of customers. Clearing broker securities consist of trading and investment securities at fair market values, which are based on quoted market rates. Securities borrowed and loaned are collateralized financing transactions which are cash deposits made to or received from other broker/dealers. Receivables from and payables to customers represent amounts due or payable on cash and margin transactions.

4. Debt:

In February 2007 the Company amended its senior secured credit facility to reduce the effective interest rates on the term loan facility, increase the size of that facility from $4.0 billion to $4.4 billion, extend the maturity by one year and change certain other terms. In March 2007 the Company used the additional borrowings to redeem the $400 million in aggregate principal amount of senior floating rate notes due 2013. The related redemption premium of $19 million and approximately $9 million of deferred financing costs were included in other expense.

5. Income Taxes:

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”) on January 1, 2007 with no material effect. The Company’s reserve for unrecognized income tax benefits at June 30, 2007 is $28 million. This liability includes approximately $3 million (net of federal and state benefit) in accrued interest and penalties. Since substantially all of the liability relates to matters existing at the date of the Transaction, any reversal of reserve is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

Table of Contents

The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the calendar years 2003, 2004 and 2005 and various state and foreign jurisdiction tax years remain open to examination as well. At any time some portion of the Company’s operations are under audit. Accordingly, certain matters may be resolved within the next 12 months which could result in a change of the liability. The Company is unable to estimate the range of any possible adjustment at this time.

6. Comprehensive Income (Loss):

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net loss adjusted for other increases and decreases affecting stockholder’s equity that are excluded from the determination of net loss. The calculation of comprehensive income (loss) follows (in millions):

The senior notes are jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis and the senior subordinated notes are jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis, in each case, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”).

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared To Three Months Ended June 30, 2006

Income from Operations:

Our total operating margin was 11% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 12% for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

Financial Systems:

The FS operating margin was 11% and 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $16 million is primarily related to an increase in software license fees.

Higher Education and Public Sector Systems:

The HEPS operating margin was 16% and 15% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $4 million is due to the improved operating profit contribution from services revenue, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in software license fees.

Availability Services:

The AS operating margin was 20% and 19% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $5 million is primarily due to the improved operating profit contribution from our European business, partially offset by the higher expense base associated with additional capacity in North America put into service late in 2006 and in the first half of 2007.

Revenue:

Total revenue increased $111 million or 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase in total revenue in 2007 is due primarily to organic revenue growth of approximately 9%, including the approximate 2% impact of changes in currency exchange rates overall and in each segment. Organic revenue is defined as revenue for businesses owned for at least one year and further adjusted for the effects of businesses sold in the previous twelve months.

Financial Systems:

FS revenue increased $96 million or 19% in 2007, primarily the result of a $74 million increase in services revenue. Organic revenue growth was approximately 15% in the second quarter of 2007. Professional services revenue had the most significant contribution to the growth, having increased $32 million or 31%, primarily in the benefit administration and insurance group. In addition, broker/dealer revenue, which is a comparatively low margin business, increased $18 million on higher volumes. Revenue from license and resale fees included software license revenue of $56 million and $40 million, respectively, in each of the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Higher Education and Public Sector Systems:

Revenue from HEPS remained unchanged at $233 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the corresponding period in 2006. Revenue from license and resale fees included $20 million of software license revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $2 million from the prior year period.

Availability Services:

AS revenue increased $15 million or 4% in 2007, all of which was organic growth, primarily driven by our operations in the United Kingdom.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2007 increased to 89% from 88% in 2006. The increase of $100 million is due primarily to increased costs associated with the increase in organic revenue.

Cost of sales and direct operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 46% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from 47% the prior year period. Total cost of sales and direct operating expenses increased

Table of Contents

$48 million or 10%. The primary cause of the increase is FS employee-related and consultant expenses supporting increased services revenue and increased costs related to the higher volumes in our broker/dealer business.

Sales, marketing and administration expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 23% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 from 21% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in sales, marketing and administration expenses of $47 million or 21% was due primarily to FS businesses acquired in the past twelve months and an unfavorable arbitration award related to a customer dispute.

Because AS product development costs are insignificant, it is more meaningful to measure product development expenses as a percentage of revenue from software and processing solutions. For the three months ended June 30, 2007, product development costs were 8% of revenue from software and processing solutions, a decrease from 9% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2006.

Interest expense was $159 million and $161 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to interest rate decreases and to a reduction in average debt outstanding.

The effective income tax rates in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 79% and 27%, respectively. The rate in the second quarter of 2007 reflects a change in the expected mix of taxable income in various jurisdictions included in the overall projected taxable position for the year and limitations on our ability to utilize certain foreign tax credits.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared To Six Months Ended June 30, 2006

Income from Operations:

Our total operating margin was 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 10% for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Financial Systems:

The FS operating margin was 10% and 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $30 million is primarily related to a $16 million increase in software license fees, the operating contribution resulting from the growth in professional services revenue and operating leverage from other services revenue.

Higher Education and Public Sector Systems:

The HEPS operating margin was 16% and 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $16 million is due to the improved operating profit contribution from services revenue and from a $2 million increase in software license fees.

Availability Services:

The AS operating margin was 18% and 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in operating margin is primarily due to the higher expense base associated with additional capacity put into service late in 2006 and in the first half of 2007.

Revenue:

Total revenue increased $224 million or 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the first half of 2006. The increase in total revenue in 2007 is due primarily to organic revenue growth of approximately 9%, including the approximate 2% impact of changes in currency exchange rates overall and in each segment.

Financial Systems:

FS revenue increased $168 million or 17% in 2007, primarily the result of a $144 million increase in services revenue. Organic revenue growth was approximately 14% in the first half of 2007. Professional services revenue had the most significant contribution to the growth, having increased $71 million or 36%, primarily in the benefit administration and insurance group. In addition, broker/dealer revenue increased $30 million on higher volumes. Revenue from license and resale fees included software license revenue of $82 million and $66 million, respectively, in each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Table of Contents

Higher Education and Public Sector Systems:

Revenue from HEPS increased $29 million or 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the corresponding period in 2006, primarily from organic growth. HEPS services revenue increased $16 million, primarily due to maintenance and support revenue resulting from software license contracts signed in the previous twelve months, partially offset by an $8 million decrease in professional services. Revenue from license and resale fees included $35 million of software license revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $2 million from the prior year period.

Availability Services:

AS revenue increased $27 million or 4% in 2007, all of which was organic growth, primarily driven by our operations in the United Kingdom.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased to 89% from 90% in 2006. The increase of $188 million is due primarily to increased costs associated with the increase in organic revenue.

Cost of sales and direct operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue remained unchanged at 47% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Total cost of sales and direct operating expenses increased $101 million or 10%. The primary cause of the increase is FS employee-related and consultant expenses supporting increased services revenue and increased costs related to the higher volumes in our broker/dealer business.

Sales, marketing and administration expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 22% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 from 21% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in sales, marketing and administration expenses of $64 million or 14% was due primarily to FS businesses acquired in the past twelve months and an unfavorable arbitration award related to a customer dispute.

Because AS product development costs are insignificant, it is more meaningful to measure product development expenses as a percentage of revenue from software and processing solutions. Product development costs were 9% of revenue from software and processing solutions in each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Interest expense was $324 million and $318 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due primarily to interest rate increases and to the additional borrowing on our term loan prior to the early retirement of the senior floating rate notes due 2013.

Other expense was $40 million and $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to $28 million of expense associated with the early retirement of the $400 million of senior floating rate notes due 2013, of which $19 million represented the retirement premium paid to noteholders.

The effective income tax rates in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 6% and 36%, respectively. The rate in 2007 reflects a change in the expected mix of taxable income in various jurisdictions included in the overall projected taxable position and limitations on our ability to utilize certain foreign tax credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

At June 30, 2007, cash and equivalents were $294 million, a decrease of $22 million from December 31, 2006. Cash flow provided by operations was $170 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to cash flow provided by operations of $119 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. The improvement in cash flow provided by operations is due primarily to the increase in income from operations and less cash used for working capital.

At June 30, 2007, we had outstanding $7.50 billion in aggregate indebtedness, with additional borrowing capacity of $921 million under our revolving credit facility (after giving effect to $50 million outstanding under this facility and outstanding letters of credit). In February 2007, we amended our senior secured credit facility to reduce the effective interest rates on the term loan facility, increase the size of that facility from $4.0 billion to $4.4 billion, extend the maturity date by one year and change certain other terms. In March 2007, we used the additional borrowings to redeem the $400 million in aggregate principal amount of senior floating rate notes due 2013. Also, at June 30, 2007, $417 million was outstanding under our $450 million off-balance sheet accounts receivable securitization program.

At June 30, 2007, we had $93 million of potential contingent purchase price obligations that depend upon the operating performance of certain acquired businesses. We currently do not expect to pay any significant amounts related to these obligations. We also have outstanding letters of credit and bid bonds that total approximately $47 million.

We expect our cash flows from operations, combined with availability under our revolving credit facility and accounts receivable securitization program, to provide sufficient liquidity to fund our current obligations, projected working capital requirements and capital spending for a period that includes the next 12 months.

Covenant Compliance

Adjusted EBITDA is used to determine our compliance with certain covenants contained in the indentures governing the senior notes due 2013 and senior subordinated notes due 2015 and in our senior secured credit facilities. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indentures and our senior secured credit facilities. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate compliance with our financing covenants.

The breach of covenants in our senior secured credit facilities that are tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA could result in a default under that agreement and the lenders could elect to declare all amounts borrowed due and payable. Any such acceleration would also result in a default under our indentures. Additionally, under our debt agreements, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is also tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows:

(1) Our senior secured credit facilities require us to maintain an Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated interest expense ratio starting at a minimum of 1.50x for the four-quarter period ended December 31, 2006, which increases annually to 1.60x by the end of 2007 and 2.20x by the end of 2013. Consolidated interest expense is defined in the senior secured credit facilities as consolidated cash interest expense less cash interest income further adjusted for certain non-cash or nonrecurring interest expense and the elimination of interest expense and fees associated with our accounts receivable securitization program. Beginning with the four-quarter period ending December 31, 2006, we are required to maintain a consolidated total debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 7.75x, which decreases annually to 7.25x by the end of 2007 and to 4.0x by the end of 2013. Consolidated total debt is defined in the senior secured credit facilities as total debt less certain indebtedness and further adjusted for cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet in excess of $50 million. Failure to satisfy these ratio requirements would constitute a default under the senior secured credit facilities. If our lenders failed to waive any such default, our repayment obligations under the senior secured credit facilities could be accelerated, which would also constitute a default under our indentures.
(2) Our ability to incur additional debt and make certain restricted payments under our indentures, subject to specified exceptions, is tied to an Adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges ratio of at least 2.0x, except that we may incur certain debt and make certain restricted payments and certain permitted investments without regard to the ratio, such as our ability to incur up to an aggregate principal amount of $6.15 billion under credit facilities (inclusive of amounts outstanding under our senior credit facilities from time to time; as of June 30, 2007, we had $4.40 billion outstanding under our term loan facilities and available commitments of $921 million under our revolving credit facility), to acquire persons engaged in a similar business that become restricted subsidiaries and to make other investments equal to 6% of our consolidated assets. Fixed charges is defined in the indentures governing the Senior Notes due 2013 and the Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 as consolidated interest expense less interest income, adjusted for acquisitions, and further adjusted for non-cash interest and the elimination of interest expense and fees associated with our accounts receivable securitization program.

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

Certain of the matters we discuss in this Report on Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions which concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include: our high degree of leverage; general economic and market conditions; the condition of the financial services industry, including the effect of any further consolidation among financial services firms; the integration of acquired businesses, the performance of acquired businesses, and the prospects for future acquisitions; the effect of war, terrorism, natural disasters or other catastrophic events; the effect of disruptions to our systems and infrastructure; the timing and magnitude of software sales; the timing and scope of technological advances; customers taking their information availability solutions in-house; the trend in information availability toward solutions utilizing more dedicated resources; the market and credit risks associated with clearing broker operations; the ability to retain and attract customers and key personnel; risks relating to the foreign countries where we transact business; and the ability to obtain patent protection and avoid patent-related liabilities in the context of a rapidly developing legal framework for software and business-method patents. The factors described in this paragraph and other factors that may affect our business or future financial results are discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including this Form 10-Q. We assume no obligation to update any written or oral forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf as a result of new information, future events or other factors.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk:

We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We have invested our available cash in short-term, highly liquid financial instruments, with a substantial portion having initial maturities of three months or less. When necessary, we have borrowed to fund acquisitions.

At June 30, 2007, we had total debt of $7.50 billion, including $4.40 billion of variable rate debt. We have entered into two interest rate swap agreements which fixed the interest rates for $1.6 billion of our variable rate debt. Our two swap agreements each have a notional value of $800 million and, effectively, fix our interest rates at 4.85% and 5.00%, respectively, and expire in February 2009 and February 2011, respectively. Our remaining variable rate debt of $2.80 billion is subject to changes in underlying interest rates, and, accordingly, our interest payments will fluctuate. During the period when both of our interest rate swap agreements are effective, a 1% change in interest rates would result in a change in interest of approximately $28 million per year. Upon the expiration of each interest rate swap agreement in February 2009 and February 2011, a 1% change in interest rates would result in a change in interest of approximately $36 million and $44 million per year, respectively.

 

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures:

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report were effective.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
