PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

          We develop, sell, deploy, service and maintain supply chain software solutions that help organizations optimize business advantages gained through those solutions while effectively managing the long-term costs of operating them. Supply chain solutions help organizations ensure that the right products are available to the right customers at the right time and at the right cost, so that organizations can build customer loyalty, differentiate their brands, and calibrate costs and revenues to align with organizational goals. Some key benefits of implementing our solutions include:

	•		Mastering channel proliferation by being able to forecast and manage inventory, sales and returns through multiple channels (stores, web sites, catalogs, call centers) independently, yet execute customer interactions as a united entity to deliver consistent brand experiences, optimize revenue, and mitigate unnecessary and duplicative costs.
	•		Coordinating workflows and communication with other participants in a supply chain ecosystem, including suppliers, customers and transportation providers;
	•		Increase visibility across the supply network to improve sales and customer order fill rates while reducing network inventory;
	•		Balancing transportation and inventory costs with desired service levels by channel;
	•		Increasing productivity and asset utilization in distribution centers, transportation networks and delivery channels to improve return on supply chain investments, including storage, labor, inventory and transportation investments;
	•		Improving compliance with customer requirements, including radio frequency identification (RFID) and electronic product code (EPC) requirements; and
	•		Accelerating eco-friendliness through “green” initiatives such as reducing carbon footprints and greenhouse gas emissions and improving reuse and recycling.

Figure 1: Manhattan MORE ^TM depicts Manhattan’s Optimized Roadmap to Excellence, our comprehensive methodology for delivering customer value through supply-chain-centered people, principles, products, protocols and processes. We build long-term customer relationships through our Customer Excellence Lifecycle, which leverages our software, expertise and enriched services in a high-touch cycle of engagement, deployment and adoption for continuous supply chain advancement.

          Our point of view is that a platform-based approach is the best way to optimize supply chains and supply chain ecosystems, meaning all of the interdependent elements both within and external to an organization that interact to impact how effectively, efficiently and economically that organization’s supply chain operates. Supply chain ecosystems encompass disparate functions within an organization that affect its supply chain (such as distribution, transportation, order lifecycle management, inventory optimization, and planning and forecasting) as well as interactions with entities outside the organization but integral to its supply chain, including manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, trading partners, transportation providers, channels (such as catalogers, store retailers, call centers and Web outlets) and consumers.

          Platform Thinking^™ is the term we use to describe the intelligence that infuses the way we design our software, consult with our customers and deliver our solutions. Our rationale is built on this premise: Making decisions about inventory, orders, transportation, and distribution in isolation without considering data, workflows and inputs from each discipline in the supply chain and from its ecosystem can lead to more costly and suboptimal decisions. This is because each of these areas generates cost and service-level consequences that impact the others directly or indirectly. Platform Thinking gives organizations a unified view of their supply chains by replacing “silo thinking” with Whole Chain Awareness^™, a blend of insight and execution capabilities across supply chains and supply chain ecosystems that delivers advanced levels of visibility, agility, responsiveness and economy for organizations that depend on their supply chains for uncommon and strategic advantage.

          We deliver these benefits in a market-differentiating way through a comprehensive array of supply-chain-centered people, principles, products, protocols and processes we call Manhattan MORE^™: Manhattan’s Optimized Roadmap to Excellence (See Figure 1). These elements work together to coordinate insights, people, workflows, assets, events and tasks holistically across supply chain functions from planning through execution. They also help to coordinate actions, data exchange and communication among participants in supply chain ecosystems.

          We are a Georgia corporation formed in February 1998 to acquire all of the assets and liabilities of Manhattan Associates Software, LLC, our predecessor. References in this filing to the “Company,” “Manhattan,” “Manhattan Associates,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Manhattan Associates, Inc., our predecessors, and our wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiaries. Our principal executive offices are located at 2300 Windy Ridge Parkway, Suite 1000, Atlanta, Georgia 30339, and our telephone number is 770-955-7070.

Industry Background

          Globalization and technological advances have radically altered competition, service expectations and business operating imperatives for modern organizations. Pressures such as outsourcing, sales and distribution channel proliferation and convergence, growing item diversity and volume to satisfy evolving global consumer demands, fluctuating fuel costs, global labor sourcing, and regulatory and security requirements motivate organizations to closely examine not only their supply chain operations, but also how they interact in supply chain ecosystems that interlink suppliers, trading partners, manufacturers, sellers, distributors, transporters, channels and customers. We believe this is because mastering supply chains and ecosystems in unique ways is necessary to create sustainable competitive advantages in today’s globally interacting commerce environment.

          Profitable operations, brand leadership and customer loyalty depend not only on product mix, but also on the blends of services—including availability, channel choice, pricing options, return policies, ease of buying, ease of delivery and technical or operational support—that uniquely surround those products to satisfy targeted customer desires in competitively differentiating ways. Supply chain solutions not only help organizations manage logistics operations, but also enable them to coalesce data, workflows, events and tasks from across the web of suppliers, trading partners, customers and other participants in a supply chain ecosystem to make optimal business decisions.

          Organizations apply supply chain technology, software and services to solve identified operational inefficiencies or create operational advantages in ways that can scale as their businesses grow. They also look to easily integrate supply chain solutions with other technology, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, customer relationship management (CRM) systems, e-business systems, material handling equipment (MHE) and other solutions involved in creating efficient, competitive and profitable operations.

Manhattan Associates’ Software Solution Portfolios

          Our platform-based supply chain software solution portfolios – Manhattan SCOPE^® and Manhattan SCALE^TM – are designed with our Platform Thinking approach to deliver both business agility and total cost of ownership advantages to customers. Manhattan SCOPE (Supply Chain Optimization, Planning through Execution, depicted in Figure 2) leverages our Supply Chain Process Platform (SCPP, depicted in Figure 3) to unify the full breadth of the supply chain, while Manhattan SCALE (Supply Chain Architected for Logistics Execution, depicted in Figure 4) leverages Microsoft’s .NET^® platform to unify logistics functions.

          Our solutions operate across Unix, IBM System I, Linux and Microsoft.NET computing platforms, as well as on multiple hardware platforms and systems. Because supply chain solutions necessarily interact with other business operation systems, our solutions are designed to interoperate with software from other providers as well as with a company’s existing legacy systems. This interfacing and open system capability enables customers to continue using existing computer resources and to choose among a wide variety of existing and emerging computer hardware and peripheral technologies. We provide adapters for many ERP systems to enhance system communication and reduce implementation costs, including (but not limited to) Oracle, SAP and Microsoft Dynamics AX. We also offer certain of our solutions in both premise software and hosted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) models so that customers can select the option that best meets their requirements for control, flexibility, cost of ownership, and time-to-deployment.

Manhattan SCOPE ^®

          SCOPE is ideally suited for companies that consider supply chain software, processes and technology strategic to market leadership. Predictive and algorithmic technology embedded in SCOPE helps organizations refine decisions dynamically as market or operational conditions change. Advantages derived from coordinated real-time visibility, event management, ecosystem collaboration and intelligence across supply chain operational departments and functions avert having decisions in one supply chain area unexpectedly affect another unfavorably. By organizing supply chain optimization holistically, Manhattan enables customers to fine-tune costs, profitability and service levels as their business objectives and market conditions evolve.

Figure 2: Manhattan SCOPE ^® Supply Chain Optimization, Planning through Execution, is a portfolio of supply chain solution suites that leverage our Supply Chain Process Platform to enable high degrees of operational insight, performance, agility and optimization at a tightly-managed and overall lower total cost of ownership. This platform-based architecture also enables combining different elements of different solution suites into X-Suite solutions to address specific supply chain challenges.

Supply Chain Platform Applications

          SCOPE Platform Applications span the entire portfolio to provide key visibility, intelligence and adaptive functionality across the enterprise. These solutions offer the broad supply chain insight and analytics that are critical to an executive’s ability to proactively manage the holistic supply chain. Whether deployed with our Solution Suite applications or integrated with other enterprise systems, our Platform Applications provide a comprehensive range of event and schedule tracking; alerts and notifications; inventory, order and shipment visibility; cost monitoring and tracking; leading-edge analytics, and reporting with graphical depictions of critical supply chain performance metrics.

Supply Chain Solution Suites

          Each Solution Suite is designed to enable users to proactively plan, monitor and execute against supply chain objectives.

          Planning and Forecasting enables organizations to sense and respond to demand, and to support all levels of enterprise merchandise planning, from strategic level planning down to assortment and key item planning. Our Demand Forecasting solution leverages a unique Unified Forecasting Method^TM(UFM) to enable organizations to optimally forecast and manage – by specific channel – challenging planning and forecasting situations, including forecasting buying patterns for seasonal items, intermittently sold items, and items that sell in different patterns and at different paces in different channels.

          Inventory Optimization enables enterprises to reduce overall network inventory to release working capital while improving sales and customer order fill rates. Inventory Optimization also provides analytical tools to better balance the financial trade-off between improving customer service levels and overall inventory investments. Our Multi-Echelon solution helps organizations manage distribution networks with more than one type or level of distribution center between the supplier and the end point. Vendor Managed Inventory and Collaboration Gateway solutions help formulate tighter, lasting relationships with key trading partners, such as replenishing products into customers’ locations or sharing key supply chain performance indicators.

          Order Lifecycle Management is designed to optimize order fulfillment across a distributed supply chain. By managing orders across all channels from inception to sourcing physical fulfillment—and ultimately through physical returns when applicable —Order Lifecycle Management helps to optimize inventory deployment while reducing overall fulfillment costs.

          Transportation Lifecycle Management optimizes all aspects of transporting product through supply chains by improving multiple product delivery dimensions, such as speed, accuracy and cost.

          Distribution Management is designed to effectively manage the key assets required to run complex distribution operations, and to move goods and information through a warehouse with precision and velocity. The suite enables (among other processes) knowing what inventory will be arriving at a distribution center; receiving, putting away and shipping inventory, and managing distribution-related labor.

X-Suite Solutions

          X-Suite Solutions leverage Manhattan’s SCPP to synthesize capabilities of two or more solutions or solution components to solve a specific supply chain problem. Flow Management and Extended Enterprise Management are X-Suite Solutions. Flow Management synthesizes Demand Forecasting, Replenishment, Supply Chain Visibility, Distributed Order Management and Warehouse Management, while Extended Enterprise Management synthesizes Supplier Enablement, Hub Management, Transportation Enablement, Store / Consumer Gateway, Collaborative Gateway, Supply Chain Visibility and Supply Chain Event Management.

          Flow Management improves the agility of the supply chain while reducing the volume of inventory required to deliver defined customer service levels. In a flow-through distribution model, goods literally “flow” directly from arriving at a distribution center to being shipped to their destination, without being put away in the interim. Businesses achieve the greatest benefit from a flow-through distribution model only by synchronizing demand management, inventory optimization, purchase order allocations, and the physical distribution of inventory. Flow Management enables organizations to evolve from a facilities-based distribution model to a more holistic, network-based model. Organizations leverage Flow Management to free inventory to drive maximum profitability and customer service across channels; redirect inbound supply directly to customers, alternate stores or distribution centers based on real-time demand signals: and optimize cross-channel inventory by using the same enterprise-wide supply planning and inventory management process

          Extended Enterprise Management connects organizations with supply chain ecosystem participants to create insight to supply chain events and improve how goods are ordered and move through supply chains. The solution facilitates quick and fluid interactions with trading partners, optimizes order management, creates compliant case labels and advanced shipment notifications upstream, assures quality inventory and shipments, and senses and responds efficiently to supply chain events to increase on-time delivery rates, improve inventory control and meet demand expectations.

Supply Chain Process Platform

          At the foundation of Manhattan SCOPE is our Supply Chain Process Platform (SCPP), which utilizes a service-oriented architecture (SOA), common data model, collaborative gateways and an optimization engine (among other constructs) to facilitate supply chain transformations that help our customers create and sustain competitive advantages. Specific elements of Manhattan’s SCPP, along with related core benefits, are detailed in Figure 3.

          Among its overall benefits, our SCPP enables customers using multiple Manhattan SCOPE applications to achieve Cross-Application Optimization^TM. Cross-Application Optimization is our term for the compound benefits derived not only from optimizing multiple functional supply chain elements individually, but also collectively by considering factors across multiple functions in a supply chain (warehouse management, transportation, inventory and labor, for example) simultaneously, so that their individual and related impacts inform each decision to determine the optimal course of action for the organization as a whole. Our SCPP’s common architecture also enables customers to speed implementations, simplify upgrades, and achieve lower total cost of ownership over time.

Figure 3: Manhattan’s Supply Chain Process Platform provides the foundation for Manhattan SCOPE Solution Suites, Platform Applications, and X-Suite Solutions. This common architecture provides agility and business differentiation advantages to operations executives while also simplifying maintenance and upgrade paths and lowering the total cost of ownership over time for information technology and financial executives.

Manhattan SCALE ^TM

          SCALE is our portfolio of logistics execution solutions built on the Microsoft^®.NET platform. It is targeted toward companies with execution-focused supply chain needs that require speed-to-value, resource-light system configuration and maintenance, and the ability to quickly scale their logistics operations up or down in response to market fluctuations or business requirement changes. SCALE combines the features of Trading Partner Management, Yard Management, Warehouse Visibility and Optimization, Warehouse Management and Transportation Execution, as shown in Figure 4.

          Because SCALE leverages a common platform, solutions share common data elements, and each user can access all applications through a single sign-on. Users also can set up “dashboards” that enable easy access to real-time information most relevant to their jobs. SCALE’s ease of deployment, operation and support make it a popular choice for organizations operating in countries with emerging and developing economies, and where technical support resources are limited.

Figure 4: Manhattan’s Supply Chain Architected for Logistics Execution is a portfolio of logistics solutions that leverages the Microsoft^®.NET platform and is designed for organizations that want to improve their logistics operations quickly with limited technical resources. SCALE also is a popular solution choice for organizations operating in countries with emerging supply chain ecosystems.

Professional Services

          We advise and assist our customers in planning and implementing our solutions through our global Professional Services Organization. To ensure long-term successful customer relationships, consultants assist customers with the initial deployment of our systems, the conversion and transfer of the customer’s historical data onto our systems, and ongoing training, education and system upgrades. We believe our Professional Services teams enable customers to implement our solutions knowledgeably and in the appropriate amount of time; help customers achieve expected results from system investments; continuously identify new opportunities for supply chain advancements; and meaningfully add to our industry-specific knowledge base to inform future implementations and product innovations.

          Although our Professional Services are optional, substantially all of our customers use at least some portion of these services to implement and support our software solutions. Professional Services typically are rendered under time and materials-based contracts, with services typically billed by the hour. Professional Services sometimes are rendered under fixed-fee based contracts, with payments due on specific dates or milestones. We believe that increased sales of our software solutions will drive higher demand for our consulting services.

          We believe our Professional Services team delivers unique supply chain expertise to our customers through industry-specific “best-practices” protocols and processes developed through the collective knowledge we have gained in more than 3,300 installations worldwide. We also extensively train our consulting personnel on supply chain operations and on our solutions.

          Business consultants, systems analysts and technical personnel assist customers in all phases of implementing our systems, including planning and design, customer-specific module configuration, on-site implementation or conversion from existing systems, and integration with customer systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Ecommerce Platforms and Material Handling Equipment (MHE) systems. At times, third-party consultants, such as those from major systems integrators, assist our customers with certain implementations.

Customer Support Services and Software Enhancements

          We offer a comprehensive program that provides our customers with software upgrades for additional or improved functionality, and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. Over the past three years, our annual renewal rate of customers subscribing to comprehensive support and enhancements has been greater than 90%. We are able to remotely access customer systems to perform diagnostics, provide on-line assistance, and facilitate software upgrades. We offer 24 hour customer support every day of the year, plus software upgrades for an annual fee that is paid in advance and is based on the solutions the customer has and the service level required. Software upgrades are provided under this program on a when-and-if- available basis.

Training

          We offer training in a structured environment for new and existing users. Training programs are provided at fixed fees per-person, per-class, and cover topics such as (but not limited to) solution use, configuration, implementation and system administration. Several computer-based training programs can be purchased for a fixed fee for use at client sites.

Hardware Sales

          Along with software licenses, and as a convenience for our customers, we sell a variety of hardware developed and manufactured by others, including (but are not limited to) computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. We sell all hardware pursuant to agreements with manufacturers or through distributor-authorized reseller agreements. These agreements entitle us to purchase hardware at discount prices, and to receive technical support during product installations and in the event of any subsequent product malfunctions. We do not maintain significant hardware inventory as we generally purchase hardware from vendors only after receiving a customer order.

Strategy

          Our objective is to extend our position as the best global supply chain solutions provider for supply chain leaders, meaning organizations intent on creating and sustaining market advantages by leveraging supply chain solutions. Our solutions help global distributors, wholesalers, retailers, logistics providers and manufacturer successfully manage accelerating and fluctuating market demands, as well as master the increasing complexity and volatility of their local and global supply chains. We believe our solutions are advanced, highly functional and highly scalable. They are designed to enable organizations to: create customer experiences consistent with their brand values; improve relationships with suppliers, customers and logistics providers; leverage investments across supply chain functions; effectively manage costs; and meet dynamically changing customer requirements. We believe our solutions are uniquely positioned to holistically optimize supply chains from planning through execution, and that customers can leverage this holistic approach to create operational and market advantages. Strategies to accomplish our objectives include (but are not limited to) the following:

          Develop and Enhance Software Solutions. We intend to continue to focus our research and development resources on enhancing our supply chain solutions. We offer what we believe to be the broadest and most richly-featured software portfolio in the supply chain solutions marketplace. To continuously expand functionality and value, we plan to continue to provide enhancements to existing solutions and to introduce new solutions to address evolving industry standards and market needs. We identify these opportunities through our Product Management, Professional Services, Customer Support and Account Management organizations, through interactions such as ongoing customer consulting engagements and implementations; sessions with our solution user groups; association with leading industry analyst and market research firms; and participation on industry standards and research committees.

Our solutions address needs in various vertical markets, including retail, consumer goods, food and grocery, logistics service providers, industrial and wholesale, high technology and electronics, life sciences and government. We intend to continue to enhance our solutions to meet the dynamic requirements of these and new vertical markets as business opportunities dictate.

          Expand International Presence. We believe that our solutions offer significant benefits to customers in markets outside the United States, and for organizations with global operations. Approximately 930 Manhattan employees work outside the United States to build international sales, service our international clients, and further develop our solutions. We have offices in Australia, China, France, India, the Netherlands, Shanghai, Singapore and the United Kingdom, as well as representatives in Mexico and Japan, and reseller partnerships in Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South Africa and Asia. Our Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) operations support sales, implementation services and customer support functions for a number of customers across the Middle East, concentrated in countries we consider politically and economically stable, such as Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Turkey, Israel, and Oman. Our Asia Pacific (APAC) operations service emerging opportunities in China, Southeast Asia and India, as well as more established markets in Australia and New Zealand. Our international strategy includes leveraging the strength of our relationships with current U.S.-based customers that also have significant overseas operations, and pursuing strategic marketing partnerships with international systems integrators and third-party solution providers.

          Expand Our Strategic Alliances and Indirect Sales Channels. We currently sell our products primarily through our direct sales personnel, and through partnership agreements with a select number of organizations in emerging markets where we do not currently have a direct sales presence. We have worked on joint projects and joint sales initiatives with industry-leading consultants and software systems implementers, including most of the large consulting firms and other systems consulting firms specializing in our targeted industries, to supplement our direct sales force and professional services organization. We have been expanding our indirect sales channels through reseller agreements, marketing agreements, and agreements with third-party logistics providers. These alliances extend our market coverage and provide us with new business leads and access to trained implementation personnel.

          Acquire or Invest in Complementary Businesses. We continuously evaluate strategic acquisition opportunities of technologies, solutions and businesses that are consistent with our platform-based strategy and enable us to enhance and expand our supply chain planning and execution solutions and service offerings. Preferred acquisition targets are those that would: be complementary to our existing solutions and technologies; expand our geographic presence and distribution channels; extend our presence into additional vertical markets with challenges and requirements similar to those we currently serve; and further solidify our leadership position within the primary components of supply chain planning and execution.

Sales and Marketing

          We employ multi-disciplinary sales teams that consist of professionals with industry experience in sales and technical sales support. To date, we have generated the majority of our revenue from software sales through our direct sales force. We plan to continue to invest in our sales, services and marketing organizations within the United States, EMEA, and APAC, and to pursue strategic marketing partnerships. We conduct comprehensive global marketing programs that include prospect profiling and targeting, lead generation, public relations, analyst relations, trade show attendance and sponsorships, supply chain conference hosting, online marketing, joint promotion programs with vendors and consultants, and ongoing customer communication programs.

          Our sales cycle typically begins with the generation of a sales lead — through in-house telemarketing efforts, targeted promotions, web inquiries, trade show presence, speaking engagements, hosted seminars, or other means of referral — or the receipt of a request for proposal from a prospective customer. Leads are qualified and opportunities are closed through a process that includes telephone-based assessments of requirements; responses to requests for proposals; presentations and product demonstrations; site visits and/or reference calls with organizations already using our supply chain solutions; and contract negotiations. Sales cycles vary substantially from opportunity to opportunity, but typically require six to twelve months.

          In addition to new customer sales, we plan to continue to leverage our existing customer base to drive revenue from system upgrades, sales of additional licenses of purchased solutions, and sales of new or add-on solutions. To efficiently penetrate emerging global markets, we leverage indirect sales channels, including sales through reseller agreements, marketing agreements and agreements with third-party logistics providers. To extend our market coverage, generate new business leads and provide access to trained implementation personnel, we leverage strategic alliances with systems integrators skilled at implementing our solutions. Business referrals and leads are positively influenced by systems integrators, which include most of the large consulting firms and other systems consulting firms specializing in our targeted industries.

          Our Manhattan Value Partner (Manhattan MVP™) and Manhattan GeoPartner™ programs foster joint sales and marketing with other organizations. Manhattan Value Partners are proven software and hardware providers, trusted third-party integrators and consultants who bring added value to customer engagements through vertical industry knowledge or technical specialization. Manhattan MVPs support and complement our supply chain solutions so we can provide customers with a comprehensive approach that is suited to their business requirements. This collaborative program is designed to benefit both Manhattan and our partners through tailored joint marketing, sales and, in some cases, co-development efforts. Among others, Manhattan MVPs include Accenture, Deloitte, IBM, Microsoft and Motorola. Manhattan GeoPartners represent a select group of companies that sell and implement our solutions in specific geographies around the world, each providing valuable localized expertise to meet customer needs in areas such as Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and the Asia Pacific region.

Customers

          To date, our customers have been suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and logistics providers in a variety of industries. The following table sets forth a representative list of customers that contracted to purchase solutions and services from us in 2009.

          Our top five customers in aggregate accounted for 11% of total revenue for each of the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and 13% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007, respectively. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in 2009, 2008 or 2007.

Product Development

          We focus our development efforts on adding new functionality to existing solutions; integrating our various solution offerings; enhancing the operability of our solutions across our Supply Chain Process Platform and across distributed and alternative hardware platforms, operating systems and database systems; and developing new solutions. We believe that our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to enhance existing solutions, to respond to dynamically changing customer requirements, and to develop new or enhanced solutions that incorporate new technological developments and emerging supply chain and industry standards. To that end, development frequently focuses on base system enhancements and incorporating new user requirements and features into our solutions. As a result, we deliver packaged, highly configurable solutions with increasingly rich functionality rather than custom-developed software. We also deliver interface toolkits for many major ERP systems to enhance communication and improve data flows between our core solutions and our clients’ host systems.

          We leverage internal and external scientific advisors to inform our solution strategies and research and development approaches with the most advanced thinking on supply chain opportunities, challenges and technologies. Our internal research team is comprised of Ph.D.-credentialed math and science experts who work on creating and solving algorithms and other constructs that advance the optimization capabilities and other aspects of our solutions. Our external Science Advisory Board unites the thinking of experts from leading educational institutions known for their supply chain disciplines, and practitioners from organizations deploying supply chain technology in innovative and market-advancing ways. Together, our Research Team and Science Advisory Board inform both the practical business approaches and the mathematical and scientific inventiveness of our solutions.

          We conduct most development internally in order to retain development knowledge and promote programming standards continuity. However, we may periodically outsource some projects that can be performed separately and/or that require special skills. We also use third-party research and development companies to localize our products into Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish. Since 2002 we have operated a development center in Bangalore, India, which houses approximately 450 research and development professionals.

          Our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $36.7 million, $48.4 million and $46.6 million, respectively. We intend to continue to invest significantly in product development.

Competition

          Our solutions are solely focused on the supply chain planning and execution markets, which have been consolidating rapidly, are intensely competitive, and are characterized by rapid technological change. The principal competitive factors affecting the markets for our solutions include: industry expertise; company and solution reputation; company viability; compliance with industry standards; solution architecture; solution functionality and features; integration experience, particularly with ERP providers and material handling equipment providers; ease and speed of implementation; proven return on investment; historical and current solution quality and performance; total cost of ownership; solution price; and ongoing solution support structure. We believe that we compete favorably with respect to each of these factors.

          Our competitors are diverse and offer a variety of solutions directed at various aspects of the supply chain, as well as at the enterprise as a whole. Our existing competitors include:

	•		Corporate information technology departments of current or potential customers capable of internally developing solutions;
	•		Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) vendors, including Oracle, SAP, and Infor, among others;
	•		Supply chain execution vendors, including RedPrairie Holding, Inc., HighJump Software Inc., CDC Software Corporation and Sterling Commerce, Inc. (an AT&T company), among others;
	•		Supply chain planning vendors, including JDA Software Group, Inc., and SAS Institute Inc., among others; and
	•		Smaller independent companies that have developed or are attempting to develop supply chain execution solutions and/or supply chain planning solutions that apply in specific countries and/or globally.

          We anticipate facing increased competition from ERP and Supply Chain Management (SCM) applications vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their solution offerings by internally developing or by acquiring or partnering

with independent developers of supply chain planning and execution software. For instance, both Oracle and SAP have entered the market for supply chain management applications. Compared with us, these companies and other competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories; significantly more financial, technical, marketing and other resources; greater name recognition; broader solutions; and larger installed bases of customers. To the extent that ERP and SCM vendors or other large competitors develop or acquire systems with functionality comparable or superior to ours, their larger customer bases, long-standing customer relationships, and ability to offer broader solutions outside the scope of supply chain could create significant competitive advantage for them. It also is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and/or new competitors may emerge to win significant market share. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced earnings and margins and loss of market share. In turn, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow, and financial condition.

          We believe we have established meaningful competitive advantages and have built barriers to market entry through our supply chain expertise; our platform-based solution approach; our track record of continuous supply chain innovation and investment; our strong and endorsing customer relationships; our significant success in deploying and supporting supply chains for market-leading companies; and our ability to out-execute others in identifying sales opportunities and demonstrating expertise throughout the sales cycle. However, to further our market success, we must continue to respond promptly and effectively to technological change and competitors’ innovations. Consequently, we cannot assure that we will not be required to make substantial additional investments in research, development, marketing, sales and customer service efforts in order to meet any competitive threat, or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future.

International Operations: Segments

          We have three reporting segments, based on geographic location: the Americas; Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia Pacific (“APAC”). For further information on our segments, see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements. Our international revenue was approximately $58.0 million, $81.5 million and $68.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which represents approximately 24%, 24% and 20% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. We now have approximately 930 employees outside the United States.

Proprietary Rights

          We rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark, service mark and trade dress laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights in our products and technology. We have registered trademarks for Manhattan Associates and the Manhattan Associates logo, as well as Manhattan SCOPE, SCOPE and a number of solutions and features. We also have trademark applications submitted for Manhattan SCALE, SCALE, Manhattan MORE, Transportation Lifecycle Management, Order Lifecycle Management, Distributed Order Management, Extended Enterprise Management and Flow Management. We generally enter into confidentiality and assignment-of-rights agreements with our employees, consultants, clients and potential clients and limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information. We license our solutions to our customers and restrict the customer’s use for internal purposes and do not give customers the right to sublicense the solutions. However, we believe that this provides us only limited protection. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights both in the United States and abroad, we cannot ensure that we will successfully deter misappropriation or independent third-party development of our technology, or that we can prevent an unauthorized third party from copying or obtaining and using our products or technology. In addition, policing unauthorized use of our solutions is difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software solutions exists, as is the case with any software company, piracy could become a problem.

          As the number of supply chain management solutions increases and solution functionality continues to overlap, companies that develop software may increasingly become subject to claims of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights. Third parties may assert infringement or misappropriation claims against us in the future for current or future products. Any claims or litigation, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing arrangements. Any royalty or licensing arrangements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Adverse determinations in such claims or litigation could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

          We may be subject to additional risks as we enter into transactions in countries where intellectual property laws are not well developed or are poorly enforced. Legal protections of our rights may be ineffective in such countries. Litigation to defend and

enforce our intellectual property rights could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, regardless of the final litigation outcome. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights both in the United States and abroad, we cannot assure that we will be successful in doing so, or that the steps we take in this regard will adequately deter misappropriation or independent third party development of our technology, or effectively prevent an unauthorized third party from copying or otherwise obtaining and using our products or technology. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Employees

          As of December 31, 2009, we employed 1,819 full time people, including 146 in sales and marketing, 873 in services, 641 in research and development (“R&D”) and 159 in general and administration. By geography, we have 889 employees based in the Americas, 143 employees in EMEA, and 787 employees in APAC and India.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

          You should consider the following factors in evaluating our business or an investment in our common stock. If any of the following or other risks actually occurs, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

          Our performance can be negatively impacted by global macroeconomic or other external influences which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. We are a technology company selling technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases, exceeding $1.0 million. Reductions in the capital budgets of our customers and prospective customers could have an adverse impact on our ability to sell our solutions. We believe that the deterioration in the current business climate within the United States and/or other geographic regions in which we operate, continued delays in capital spending, or the timing of deals closed could have a material adverse impact on our business and our ability to compete, and is likely to further intensify in our already intensely competitive markets.

          Disruptions in the financial and credit markets and economic downturns may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Demand for our products depends in large part upon the level of capital and maintenance expenditures by many of our customers. Decreased capital and maintenance spending could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products and our business, results of operations and financial condition. Disruptions in the financial markets, including the bankruptcy or restructuring of certain financial institutions, such as the events that began in the second half of 2008 and are continuing to some extent presently, may adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future, which could result in the delay or cancellation of projects or capital programs on which our business depends. Our revenue declined from $337.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 to $246.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, which we believe was due in large part to disruptions in the financial and credit markets and economic downturns

          In addition, continuing weakness or further deterioration in regional economies or the world economy could negatively impact the capital and maintenance expenditures of our customers and end users. There can be no assurance that government responses to the disruptions in the financial markets or to weakening economies will restore confidence, stabilize markets or increase liquidity and the availability of credit. These conditions may reduce the willingness or ability of our customers and prospective customers to commit funds to purchase our products and services, or their ability to pay for our products and services after purchase.

          We may not be able to continue to successfully compete with other companies. We compete in markets that are intensely competitive and are expected to become more competitive as current competitors expand their product offerings. Our current competitors come from many segments of the software industry and offer a variety of solutions directed at various aspects of the extended supply chain, as well as the enterprise as a whole. We face competition for product sales from:

	•		the corporate information technology departments of current or potential customers capable of internally developing solutions;
	•		Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) vendors, including Oracle, SAP, and Infor, among others;
	•		supply chain execution vendors, including RedPrairie Holding, Inc., HighJump Software Inc., CDC Software Corporation and Sterling Commerce, Inc. (an AT&T company), among others;
	•		supply chain planning vendors, including JDA Software Group, Inc., and SAS Institute Inc., among others; and
	•		smaller independent companies that have developed or are attempting to develop supply chain execution solutions and/or supply chain planning solutions that competes with our Supply Chain Solutions.

          We anticipate facing increased competition in the future from ERP and SCM applications vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their solution offerings by internally developing or by acquiring or partnering with independent developers of supply chain planning and execution software. For instance, both Oracle and SAP have entered the market for supply chain management applications. These companies, and many of our other competitors and potential competitors, have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, greater name recognition, a broader offering of products and a larger installed base of customers than we do. To the extent such ERP and SCM vendors or other large competitors develop or acquire systems with functionality comparable or superior to our solutions, their significant installed customer bases, long-standing customer relationships and ability to offer a broad solution could provide them a significant competitive advantage over our solutions. In addition, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced earnings and margins and loss of market share. In turn, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          We believe that the domain expertise required to continually innovate targeted supply chain technology, effectively and efficiently implement solutions, identify and attracting sales opportunities, and compete successfully in the sales cycle provides us with a competitive advantage and is a significant barrier to market entry. However, in order to be successful in the future, we must continue to respond promptly and effectively to technological change and competitors’ innovations, and consequently we cannot assure you that we will not be required to make substantial additional investments in connection with our research, development, marketing, sales and customer service efforts in order to meet any competitive threat, or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future. Some of our competitors have significant resources at their disposal, and the degree to which we will compete with these new products in the marketplace is still undetermined.

          Our operating results are substantially dependent on one line of business. We continue to derive our revenues from sales of our SCM solutions software and related services and hardware. Any factor adversely affecting the markets for SCM solutions could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Accordingly, our future operating results will depend on the demand for our SCM products and related services and hardware by our customers, including new and enhanced releases that we subsequently introduce. We cannot assure you that the market will continue to demand our current products or that we will be successful in marketing any new or enhanced products. If our competitors release new products that are superior to our products in performance or price, demand for our products may decline. A decline in demand for our products as a result of competition, technological change or other factors would reduce our total revenues and harm our ability to maintain profitability.

          Our operating results are difficult to predict and could cause our stock price to fall. Our quarterly revenue and operating results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. If our quarterly revenue or operating results fall below the expectations of investors or public market analysts, the price of our common stock could fall substantially. Our quarterly

revenue is difficult to forecast for several reasons, including the following: the varying sales cycle for our products and services from customer to customer, including multiple levels of authorization required by some customers; the varying demand for our products; customers’ budgeting and purchasing cycles; potential deferral of license revenue well after entering into a license agreement due to extended payment terms, significant software modifications, future software functionality deliverables or other negotiated terms that preclude software revenue recognition under U.S. general accepted accounting principles; delays in our implementations at customer sites; timing of hiring new services employees and the rate at which these employees become productive; timing of introduction of new products; development and performance of our distribution channels; market and economic disruptions; and timing of any acquisitions and related costs.

          As a result of these and other factors, our license revenue is difficult to predict. Because our revenue from services is largely correlated to our license revenue, a decline in license revenue could also cause a decline in our services revenue in the same quarter or in subsequent quarters. In addition, an increase or decrease in hardware sales, which provide us with lower gross margins than sales of software licenses or services, may cause variations in our quarterly operating results.

          Most of our expenses, including employee compensation and rent, are relatively fixed. In addition, our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations regarding future revenue increases. As a result, any shortfall in revenue in relation to our expectations could cause significant changes in our operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in quarterly losses. As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our revenue levels and operating results are not necessarily meaningful. Historical growth rates may not be a good indicator of future operating results. You should not rely on our historical quarterly revenue and operating results to predict our future performance.

          Our future revenue is dependent upon continuing license sales which in turn drives sales of post-contract support and professional services. We are dependent on our new customers as well as our large installed customer base to purchase additional software licenses, post-contract support and professional services from us. Our post-contract support agreements are generally for a one-year term and our professional services agreements generally only cover a particular engagement. In future periods customers may not license additional products, and in turn may not renew post-contract support agreements or purchase additional professional services from us. If our customers decide not to license or purchase these products and services from us, or if they reduce the scope of their post-contract support or hosting or professional services agreements, our revenue could decrease, significantly having a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          In addition, many of our customers are using older versions of our products for which we are no longer developing any further upgrades or enhancements. While we intend to migrate our customers who are using these versions to newer versions or products, there can be no assurance that these customers will do so. If customers using older versions of our products decide not to license our current software products, or decide to discontinue the use of our products and associated post-contract support services, our revenue could decrease and our operating results could be materially adversely affected.

          We encounter long sales cycles, particularly with our larger customers, which could have an adverse effect on the amount, timing and predictability of our revenue, adversely affecting our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Our products have lengthy sales cycles, which typically extend from six to twelve months and may take up to several years. Potential and existing customers, particularly larger enterprise customers, often commit significant resources to an evaluation of available solutions and services and require us to expend substantial time and resources in connection with our sales efforts. The length of our sales cycles also varies depending on the type of customer to which we are selling, the product being sold and customer requirements. We may incur substantial sales and marketing expenses and expend significant management effort during this time, regardless of whether we make a sale. Many of the key risks relating to sales processes are beyond our control, including: our customers’ budgetary and scheduling constraints; the timing of our customers’ budget cycles and approval processes; our customers’ willingness to replace their currently deployed software solutions; and general economic conditions.

          As a result of these lengthy and uncertain sales cycles of our products and services, it is difficult for us to predict when customers may purchase products or services from us, thereby affecting when we can recognize the associated revenue, and our operating results may vary significantly and may be adversely affected. The length of our sales cycle makes us susceptible to having pending transactions delayed or terminated by our customers if they decide to delay or withdraw funding for IT projects. Our customers may decide to delay or withdraw funding for IT projects for various reasons, including, but not limited to, global economic cycles and capital market fluctuations.

          Delays in implementations of our products could adversely impact us. Due to the size of most of our software implementations, our implementation cycle can be lengthy and may result in delays. Our products may require modification or

customization and must integrate with many existing computer systems and software programs of our customers. This can be time-consuming and expensive for customers and can result in implementation and deployment delays of our products. Additional delays could result if we fail to attract, train and retain services personnel, or if our alliance companies fail to commit sufficient resources towards implementing our software. These delays and resulting customer dissatisfaction could limit our future sales opportunities, impact revenue and harm our reputation.

          Our pricing models may need to be modified due to price competition. The competitive markets in which we operate may oblige us to reduce our prices in order to contend with the pricing models of our competitors. If our competitors discount certain products or services, we may choose to lower prices on certain products or services in order to attract or retain customers. Any such price modifications would likely reduce margins and could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          Our ability to license our software is highly dependent on the quality of our services offerings, and our failure to offer high quality services could adversely affect our software licensing revenue and results of operations. Most of our customers rely to some extent on our professional services to aid in the implementation of our software solutions. Once our software has been installed and deployed, our customers may depend on us to provide them with ongoing support and resolution of issues relating to our software. Therefore, a high level of service is critical for the continued marketing and sale of our solutions. If we or our partners do not efficiently and effectively install and deploy our software products, or succeed in helping our customers quickly resolve post-deployment issues, our ability to sell software products to these customers would be adversely affected and our reputation in the marketplace and with potential customers could suffer. In turn, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

          Our failure to manage the growth of our operations may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. We plan to continue to increase the scope of our operations domestically and internationally. This growth may place a significant strain on our management systems and resources. We may further expand domestically or internationally through internal growth or through acquisitions of related companies and technologies. For us to effectively manage our growth, we must continue to: maintain continuity in our executive officers; develop the management skills of our managers and supervisors; attract, retain, train and motivate our employees; improve our operational, financial and management controls; improve our reporting systems and procedures; and enhance management and information control systems.

          Our international operations have many associated risks. We continue to expand our international operations, and these efforts require significant management attention and financial resources. We may not be able to successfully penetrate international markets or if we do, there can be no assurance that we will grow our business in these markets at the same rate as in North America. Because of the complex nature of this expansion, it may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          In the last several years, we opened new international offices in China, France, Australia, India, Japan and Singapore. These openings constituted a substantial expansion of our international presence, which, prior to 2002, consisted principally of offices in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. We have committed resources to the opening and integration of international sales offices and the expansion of international sales and support channels. Our efforts to develop and expand international sales and support channels may not be successful. International sales are subject to many risks and difficulties, including those arising from the following: building and maintaining a competitive presence in new markets; staffing and managing foreign operations; managing international systems integrators; complying with a variety of foreign laws; producing localized versions of our products; import and export restrictions and tariffs; enforcing contracts and collecting accounts receivable; unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; potential adverse tax treatment; less stringent adherence to ethical and legal standards by prospective customers in some countries; language and cultural barriers; currency fluctuations; political and economic instability abroad; and seasonal fluctuations may arise from the lower sales that typically occur during the summer months in Europe and other parts of the world.

     Our operating results may include foreign currency gains and losses. Due to our international operations, we conduct a portion of our business in currencies other than the United States dollar. Our revenues, expenses, operating profit and net income are affected when the dollar weakens or strengthens in relation to other currencies. In addition, we have a large development center in Bangalore, India that does not have a natural in market revenue hedge to mitigate currency risk to our operating expense in India. Fluctuations in the value of other currencies, particularly the Indian rupee on expenses, can significantly affect our revenues, expenses, operating profit and net income.

          Fluctuations in our hardware sales may adversely affect us. A portion of our revenue in any period is comprised of the resale of a variety of third-party hardware products to purchasers of our software. Our customers may choose to purchase this hardware directly from manufacturers or distributors of these products. We view sales of hardware as non-strategic. We perform this service to our customers seeking a single source for their supply chain execution needs. Hardware sales are difficult to forecast and fluctuate from quarter to quarter, leading to unusual comparisons of total revenue and fluctuations in profits. If we are not able to increase our revenue from software licenses and services or maintain our hardware revenue, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition may be adversely affected.

          Our technology must be advanced if we are to remain competitive. The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and enhancements, changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. Our existing products could be rendered obsolete if we fail to continue to advance our technology. We have also found that the technological life cycles of our products are difficult to estimate, partially because of changing demands of other participants in the supply chain. We believe that our future success will depend upon our ability to continue to enhance our current product line while we concurrently develop and introduce new products that keep pace with competitive and technological developments. These developments require us to continue to make substantial product development investments. Although we are presently developing a number of product enhancements to our product sets, we cannot assure you that these enhancements will be completed on a timely basis or gain customer acceptance.

          Our research and development activities may not generate significant returns. Developing our products and software is costly, and recovering our investment in product development may take a lengthy amount of time, if it occurs at all. We anticipate continuing to make significant investments in software research and development and related product opportunities because we believe that we must continue to allocate a significant amount of resources to our research and development activities in order to compete successfully. We cannot estimate with any certainty when we will, if ever, receive significant revenues from these investments.

          Our liability to clients may be substantial if our systems fail. Our products are often critical to the operations of our customers’ businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. If our products fail to function as required, we may be subject to claims for substantial damages. Courts may not enforce provisions in our contracts that would limit our liability or otherwise protect us from liability for damages. Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, could be costly and divert management’s time and attention. Although we maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for errors or omissions, this coverage may not continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover claims against us. In addition, our insurer may disclaim coverage as to any future claim. If claims exceeding the available insurance coverage are successfully asserted against us, or our insurer imposes premium increases, large deductibles or co-insurance requirements on us, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition could be adversely affected.

          We incorporate third-party software in our solutions, the failure or unavailability of which could adversely affect our ability to sell, support and service our products. We incorporate and include third-party software into and with certain of our products and solutions and expect to continue to do so. The operation of our products could be impaired if errors occur in the third-party software that we use. It may be more difficult for us to correct any defects in third-party software because the development and maintenance of the software is not within our control. Accordingly, our business could be adversely affected in the event of any errors in this software.

          In addition, there can be no assurance that these third parties will continue to make their software available to us on acceptable terms, or at all; not make their products available to our competitors on more favorable terms; invest the appropriate levels of resources in their products and services to maintain and enhance the capabilities of their software; or remain in business. Any impairment in our relationship with these third parties or our ability to license our otherwise use their software could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          The use of open source software in our products may expose us to additional risks and harm our intellectual property. Some of our products use or incorporate software that is subject to one or more open source licenses. Open source software is typically freely accessible, usable and modifiable. Certain open source software licenses require a user who intends to distribute the open source software as a component of the user’s software to disclose publicly part or all of the source code to the user’s software. In addition, certain open source software licenses require the user of such software to make any derivative works of the open source code available to others on unfavorable terms or at no cost. This can subject previously proprietary software to open source license terms.

          While we monitor the use of all open source software in our products, processes and technology and try to ensure that no open source software is used in such a way as to require us to disclose the source code to the related product or solution, such use could inadvertently occur. Additionally, if a third-party software provider has incorporated certain types of open source software into software we license from such third party for our products and solutions, we could, under certain circumstances, be required to disclose the source code to our products and solutions. This could harm our intellectual property position and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          If we are unable to develop software applications that interoperate with computing platforms developed by others, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition may be adversely affected. We develop software applications that interoperate with operating systems, database platforms and hardware devices developed by others, which we refer to collectively as computing platforms. If the developers of these computing platforms do not cooperate with us or we are unable to devote the necessary resources so that our applications interoperate with those computing platforms, our software development efforts may be delayed and our business and results of operations may be adversely affected. When new or updated versions of these computing platforms are introduced, it is often necessary for us to develop updated versions of our software applications so that they interoperate properly with these computing platforms. We may not accomplish these development efforts quickly or cost-effectively, and it is difficult to predict what the relative growth rates of adoption of these computing platforms will be. These development efforts require substantial investment, the devotion of substantial employee resources and the cooperation of the developers of the computing platforms. For some computing platforms, we must obtain some proprietary application program interfaces from the owner in order to develop software applications that interoperate with the computing platforms. Computing platform providers have no obligation to assist in these development efforts. If they do not provide us with assistance or the necessary proprietary application program interfaces on a timely basis, we may experience delays or be unable to expand our software applications into other areas.

          The computing platforms we use may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms. Any loss of the right to use any of these systems could result in delays in the provision of our products and services and our results of operations may be adversely affected. Defects in computing platforms could result in errors or a failure of our products which could harm our business.

          Our software may contain undetected errors or “bugs,” resulting in harm to our reputation and operating results. Software products as complex as those offered by us might contain undetected errors or failures when first introduced or when new versions are released. We cannot assure you, despite testing by us and by current and prospective customers that errors will not be found in new products or product enhancements after commercial release. Any errors found could cause substantial harm to our reputation, result in additional unplanned expenses to remedy any defects, delay the introduction of new products, result in the loss of existing or potential customers and/or cause a loss in revenue. Further, such errors could subject us to claims from our customers for significant damages, and we cannot assure you that courts would enforce the provisions in our customer agreements that limit our liability for damages. In turn, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

          Our business may require additional capital. We may require additional capital to finance our growth or to fund acquisitions or investments in complementary businesses, technologies or product lines. Our capital requirements may be impacted by many factors, including: demand for our products; the timing of and extent to which we invest in new technology; the timing of and extent to which we acquire other companies; the level and timing of revenue; the expenses of sales and marketing and new product development; the success and related expense of increasing our brand awareness; the cost of facilities to accommodate a growing workforce; the extent to which competitors are successful in developing new products and increasing their market share; and the costs involved in maintaining and enforcing intellectual property rights.

          To the extent that our resources are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private financing. However, additional funding, if needed, may not be available on terms attractive to us, or at all. In addition, since we have historically financed our growth through cash flow from operations and available cash, our relative inexperience in accessing the credit or capital markets may impair our ability to do when if the need arises. Our inability to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of our company by our current shareholders would be diluted.

          Our inability to attract, integrate and retain management and other personnel may adversely affect us. Our success greatly depends on the continued service of our executives, as well as our other key senior management, technical and sales personnel. Our success will depend on the ability of our executive officers to work together as a team. The loss of any of our senior management

or other key professional services, research and development, sales and marketing personnel—particularly if they are lost to competitors—could impair our ability to grow our business. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our executive officers.

          Our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees. We face significant competition for individuals with the skills required to perform the services we offer, and thus we may encounter increased compensation costs that are not offset by increased revenue. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain sufficient numbers of these highly skilled employees or to motivate them. Because of the complexity of the SCM market, we may experience a significant time lag between the date on which technical and sales personnel are hired and the time at which these persons become fully productive.

          Our growth is dependent upon the successful development of our direct and indirect sales channel mix. We believe that our future growth also will depend on developing and maintaining a successful direct sales force and strategic relationships with systems integrators and other technology companies. Our strategy is to continue to increase the proportion of customers served through direct and indirect channels. We are currently investing, and plan to continue to invest, significant resources to develop our sales channels. This investment could adversely affect our operating results if these efforts do not generate license and service revenue necessary to offset this investment. Also, our inability to partner with other technology companies and qualified systems integrators could adversely affect our results of operations. Because lower unit prices are typically charged on sales made through indirect channels, increased indirect sales disproportionate to direct sales could reduce our average selling prices and result in lower gross margins and earnings. In addition, sales of our products through indirect channels will reduce our consulting service revenues, as the third-party systems integrators provide these services. As indirect sales increase, our direct contact with our customer base will decrease, and we may have more difficulty accurately forecasting sales, evaluating customer satisfaction and recognizing emerging customer requirements. In addition, these systems integrators and third-party software providers may develop, acquire or market products competitive with our products.

          Our strategy of marketing our products directly to customers and indirectly through systems integrators and other technology companies may result in distribution channel conflicts. Our direct sales efforts may compete with those of our indirect channels and, to the extent different systems integrators target the same customers, systems integrators may also come into conflict with each other. Any channel conflicts that develop may have a material adverse effect on our relationships with systems integrators or harm our ability to attract new systems integrators.

          Our employee retention and hiring may be hindered by immigration restrictions. Foreign nationals who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents constitute a significant part of our professional U.S. workforce. Our ability to hire and retain these workers, and their ability to remain and work in the U.S. are impacted by laws and regulations as well as by processing procedures of various government agencies. Changes in laws, regulations or procedures may adversely affect our ability to hire or retain such workers and may affect our costs of doing business and/or our ability to deliver services.

          Our failure to adequately protect our proprietary rights may adversely affect us. Our success and ability to compete is dependent in part upon our proprietary technology. We cannot assure you that we will be able to protect our proprietary rights against unauthorized third-party copying or use. We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality agreements, licensing arrangements, and contractual commitments, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, existing copyright, trademark and trade secret laws afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect our rights to the same extent, as do the laws of the United States. Attempts may be made to copy or reverse engineer aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Any infringement of our proprietary rights could negatively impact our future operating results. Furthermore, policing the unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. In turn, our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

          Our liability for intellectual property claims can be costly and result in the loss of significant rights. It is possible that third parties will claim that we have infringed their current or future products. We expect that SCM software developers like us will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products grows. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require us to pay monetary damages or to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of which could negatively impact our operating results. We cannot assure you that these royalty or licensing agreements, if required, would be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. We also may be required to indemnify our customers

for damages they suffer as a result of such infringement. We cannot assure you that legal action claiming patent infringement will not be commenced against us, or that we would prevail in litigation given the complex technical issues and inherent uncertainties in patent litigation. If a patent claim against us was successful and we could not obtain a license on acceptable terms or license a substitute technology or redesign to avoid infringement, we may be prevented from distributing our software or required to incur significant expense and delay in developing non-infringing software. Any of these events could seriously harm our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

          Mergers or other strategic transactions involving our competitors could weaken our competitive position or reduce our revenue. Our competitors have been consolidating, which may make them more formidable competitors to us. Competing with stronger companies may cause us to experience pricing pressure and loss of market share, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Our competitors may establish or strengthen their cooperative relationships with vendors, systems integrators, third-party consulting firms or other parties. Established companies may not only develop their own products but may also acquire or partner with our current competitors. If any of these events occur, our revenue and profitability could significantly decline.

          Our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition may be adversely affected if we cannot integrate acquired companies or manage joint ventures. We may from time to time acquire companies with complementary products and services. These acquisitions will expose us to increased risks and costs, including those arising from the following: assimilating new operations and personnel; diverting financial and management resources from existing operations; and integrating acquired technologies. We may not be able to generate sufficient revenue from any of these acquisitions to offset the associated acquisition costs.

          We will also be required to maintain uniform standards of quality and service, controls, procedures and policies. Our failure to achieve any of these standards may hurt relationships with customers, employees and new management personnel. In addition, future acquisitions may result in additional issuances of stock that could be dilutive to our shareholders.

          Many acquisition candidates have significant intangible assets, and an acquisition of these businesses would likely result in significant amounts of goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill and certain other intangible assets are not amortized to income, but are subject to at least annual impairment reviews. If the acquisitions do not perform as planned, future charges to income arising from such impairment reviews could be significant. Likewise, future quarterly and annual earnings could be significantly adversely affected. In addition, these acquisitions could involve acquisition-related charges, such as one-time acquired research and development charges.

          We may also evaluate joint venture relationships with complementary businesses. Any joint venture we enter into would involve many of the same risks posed by acquisitions, particularly the following: risks associated with the diversion of resources; the inability to generate sufficient revenue; the management of relationships with third parties; and potential additional expenses.

          Our stock price has been highly volatile. The trading price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly since our initial public offering in April 1998. In addition, the trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, including: global macro-economic contraction impacting demand for SCM solutions; quarterly variations in operating results; announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors; developments with respect to patents or proprietary rights; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; and mergers, acquisitions and combinations involving our competitors or us.

          In addition, the stock market has recently experienced volatility that has particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many technology companies and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

          Our articles of incorporation and bylaws and Georgia law may inhibit a takeover of our company. Our basic corporate documents and Georgia law contain provisions that might enable our management to resist a takeover of our company. These provisions might discourage, delay or prevent a change in the control of our company or a change in our management. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. The existence of these provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

          As of December 31, 2009, we do not have any unresolved written comments that we received from the SEC more than 180 days before December 31, 2009.

Item 2. Properties

          Our principal administrative, sales, marketing, support and research and development facility is located in approximately 176,000 square feet of modern office space in Atlanta, Georgia. Substantially all of this space is leased to us through September 30, 2018. We have additional offices under multi-year agreements in Indiana. We also occupy facilities outside of the United States under multi-year agreements in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, China, Japan, Singapore, India and Australia. We also occupy offices under short-term agreements in other geographical regions. We believe our office space is adequate to meet our immediate needs; however, we may expand into additional facilities in the future.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

          From time to time, we are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceeding the result of which it believes could have a material adverse impact upon its business, financial position or results of operations.

          Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses. Any failure in our products could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

          There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Business Overview

          We are a leading developer and implementer of supply chain software solutions that help organizations optimize their supply chain operations from planning through execution. Our platform-based supply chain software solution portfolios – Manhattan SCOPE^® and Manhattan SCALE^TM – are designed to deliver both business agility and total cost of ownership advantages to customers. Manhattan SCOPE (Supply Chain Optimization, Planning through Execution) leverages our Supply Chain Process Platform (SCPP) to unify the full breadth of the supply chain, while Manhattan SCALE (Supply Chain Architected for Logistics Execution) leverages Microsoft’s .NET^® platform to unify logistics functions.

          Early in the Company’s history, our offerings were heavily focused on warehouse management solutions. As the Company grew in size and scope, its offerings expanded across the entire supply chain. As a result of the Company’s historical beginnings however, we still enjoy significant presence in, and a relatively strong concentration of revenues from, warehouse management solutions, which are a component of our distribution management solution suite. Over time, as our non-warehouse management solutions have proliferated and increased in capability, the Company’s revenue concentration in its management warehouse solutions has correspondingly decreased, a trend we expect to see continue.

          Our business model is singularly focused on the development and implementation of complex supply chain software solutions that are designed to optimize supply chain effectiveness and efficiency for our customers. We have three principal sources of revenue:

•

license revenue generated from the sales of our supply chain software;

	•		professional services derived from implementing our solutions along with customer support services and software enhancements (services), and
	•		hardware sales and other revenue.

          In 2009, we generated $246.7 million in total revenue with a revenue mix of: license revenues 14%; services 77%; and hardware and other revenue 9%.

          We manage our business based on three geographic regions: North America and Latin America (Americas), Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia Pacific (APAC). Geographic revenue is based on the location of the sale. Our international revenue was approximately $58.0 million, $81.5 million and $68.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which represents approximately 24%, 24% and 20% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. At December 31, 2009, we employed approximately 1,820 employees worldwide, of which 930 employees are based outside the United States. Of the 930 international employees, approximately 75%, or nearly 720 employees, are located in our India Development Center. We have offices in Australia, China, France, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore and the United Kingdom, as well as representatives in Mexico and reseller partnerships in Latin America.

Global Economic Trends and Industry Factors

          Global macro economic trends, technology spending and supply chain management market growth are important barometers for our business. In 2009, approximately 76% of our total revenue is generated in the United States, 11% in EMEA and the balance in APAC, Canada and Latin America. In addition, industry analysts project that approximately two-thirds of every supply chain software solutions dollar invested is spent in the United States; consequently, the health of the U.S. economy has a meaningful impact on our financial results.

          We sell technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases exceeding $1.0 million. Reductions in capital budgets of our customers and prospective customers have had an adverse impact on our ability to sell our solutions, largely we believe as a result of the global economic recession. The deterioration in the current business climate within the United States and geographic regions in which we operate continues to affect customers and prospects decisions regarding timing of strategic capital spend. Timing of deals closed can have a material adverse impact on our business and is likely to further intensify competition in our already highly competitive markets.

          In January 2010, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) provided a World Economic Outlook update raising its 2010 world economic growth forecast. The update noted that economic growth solidified and broadened to advanced economies in the second half of 2009. Under the revised outlook, world output is expected to rise by 3.9% in 2010 representing an upward revision of ³/4 percentage point from the October 2009 World Economic Outlook. The world economy contracted about 1.0% in 2009. “In most advanced economies, the recovery is expected to remain sluggish by past standards, whereas in many emerging and developing economies, activity is expected to be relatively vigorous, largely driven by buoyant internal demand,” the update observed, and added that advanced economies are not currently expected to recover to pre-crisis levels until 2011. “Moreover, high unemployment rates and public debt, as well as not fully healed financial systems, and in some countries, weak household balance sheets are presenting further challenges to the recovery in these economies,” the update continued. Advanced economies are projected to expand sluggishly through much of 2010 with annual growth of about 2.1%, following a contraction of 3.2% in 2009. The U.S. economy contracted about 2.5% in 2009 and is projected to grow 2.7% in 2010.

          Our license revenues in the first half of 2009 totaled $9.0 million down 76% over the first half of 2008 as we closed no license deals greater than $1.0 million. In contrast, we generated $25.6 million in total license revenue in the second half of the year. While this second-half result remains down in a year-over-year comparison, it’s down only 7%. While we saw demand steadily improve in the second half, we believe there continues to be significant uncertainty around the global macro-environment regarding consumer demand, federal government policies and the health of credit markets. We believe companies are continuing to protect their balance sheets by reducing debt and hoarding cash, while continuing to be slower and more cautious regarding strategic capital expenditures.

Revenue

          License revenue: License revenue, a leading indicator of our business, is primarily derived from software license fees that customers pay for supply chain solutions. In 2009, license revenue totaled $34.7 million, or 14% of total revenue, with gross margins of 86.4%. For the year ended December 31, 2009, Americas, EMEA and APAC recognized $29.6 million, $2.6 million, and $2.4 million in license revenue, respectively. Our annual license revenue percentage mix of new to existing customers was approximately 30% to 70%, and over the past three years has averaged about 40% to 60%. We believe our mix of new customer to existing customer license sales is well balanced, reflecting solid demand from our install base, as well as from new customers in a tough macro-economic environment. License revenue growth is influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. Our license revenue generally has long sales cycles of which the timing of the closing of a few large license transactions can have a material impact on our quarterly license revenues, operating profit, operating margins and earnings per share. For example, $1.0 million of license revenue in 2009 equates to approximately three cents of diluted earnings per share impact.

          Our software solutions are singularly focused on the supply chain planning and execution markets, which are intensely competitive, rapidly consolidating and characterized by rapid technological change. We are a market leader in the supply chain management software solutions market as defined by industry analysts such as AMR, ARC and Gartner. Our goal is to extend our position as a leading global supply chain solutions provider by growing our license revenues faster than our competitors. We do anticipate facing increased competition in the future from ERP and SCM applications vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their solution offerings by internally developing or by acquiring or partnering with independent developers of supply chain planning and execution software. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins and loss of market share.

          Services revenue: Our services business consists of professional services (consulting and training) and customer support services and software enhancements. In 2009, our services revenue totaled $189.9 million, or 77% of total revenue, with gross margins of 55.6%. The Americas, EMEA and APAC realized $155.8 million, $24.6 million, and $9.5 million, respectively, in services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2009. Professional services accounted for nearly 60% of total services revenue and approximately 45% of total revenue in 2009. When comparing our operating margins to other technology companies, our operating margin profile can be lower due to our large services revenue mix as a percentage of total revenue. While we believe our services margins are very strong, they do lower our overall operating margin as services margins are lower than license revenue margins.

          At December 31, 2009, our consulting services business totaled 873 employees, nearly 50% of our total employees worldwide. Our professional services organization provides our customers with expertise and assistance in planning and implementing our solutions. To ensure a successful product implementation, consultants assist customers with the initial installation of a system, the conversion and transfer of the customer’s historical data onto our system, and ongoing training, education and system upgrades. We believe our professional services enable customers to implement our software rapidly, ensure the customer’s success with our solution, strengthen our customer relationships, and add to our industry-specific knowledge base for use in future implementations and product innovations.

          Although our consulting services are optional, the majority of our customers use at least some portion of these services for the implementation and ongoing support of our software solutions. Consulting services are typically rendered under time and materials-based contracts with services typically billed on an hourly basis. Professional services are sometimes rendered under fixed-fee based contracts with payments due on specific dates or milestones.

          Typically, our consulting services lag license revenue by several quarters, as implementation services are performed after the purchase of the software. Services revenue growth is contingent upon license revenue growth, which is influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. In addition, our consulting services business has competitive exposure to offshore providers and other consulting companies. All of these factors potentially create the risk of pricing pressure, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins and loss of market share.

          For customer support services and software enhancements (CSSE), we offer a comprehensive program that provides our customers with software upgrades when and if available that offer additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. We offer 24 hour customer support every day of the year plus software upgrades for an annual fee that is paid in advance.

          Our CSSE revenues totaled $77.1 million in 2009, representing approximately 40% of services revenue and approximately 30% of total revenue, respectively. The growth of CSSE revenues is influenced by: (1) new license revenue growth; (2) annual renewal of support contracts; (3) increase in customers through acquisitions; and (4) fluctuations in currency rates. Substantially all of our customers renew their annual support contracts. Over the last three years, our annual revenue renewal rate of customers subscribing to comprehensive support and enhancements has been greater than 90%. CSSE revenue is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months. CSSE renewal revenue is not recognized unless payment is received from the customer.

          Hardware and other revenue: Our hardware and other revenues totaled $22.1 million in 2009 representing 9% of total revenue with gross margins of 16.9%. During 2009, the Americas, EMEA and APAC were responsible for $21.1 million, $0.8 million, and $0.2 million, respectively, in hardware and other revenues. In conjunction with the licensing of our software, and as a convenience for our customers, we resell a variety of hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. We resell all third-party hardware products pursuant to agreements with manufacturers or through distributor-authorized reseller agreements pursuant to which we are entitled to purchase hardware products at discount prices and to receive technical support in connection with product installations and any subsequent product malfunctions. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain significant hardware inventory.

          Other revenue represents amounts associated with reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to hardware and other revenue was $7.5 million, $12.7 million and $13.0 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Product Development

          We intend to continue to invest significantly in research and development (R&D), which historically has averaged about 14 cents of every revenue dollar, to provide market leading solutions that help global manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, retailers and logistics providers successfully manage accelerating and fluctuating demands as well as the increasing complexity and volatility of their local and global supply chains. Our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $36.7 million, $48.4 million and $46.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2009, our R&D organization totaled approximately 640 employees, located in the U.S. and India, representing about 35% of our total employees worldwide.

          We will continue to focus our R&D resources on the development and enhancement of supply chain software solutions. We offer what we believe to be the broadest solution portfolio in the supply chain solutions marketplace, to address all aspects of planning and forecasting, inventory optimization, order lifecycle management, transportation lifecycle management and distribution management.

          We also plan to continue to provide enhancements to existing solutions and to introduce new solutions to address evolving industry standards and market needs. We identify further enhancements to existing solutions and opportunities for new solutions through our customer support organization, as well as through ongoing customer consulting engagements and implementations, interactions with our user groups, association with leading industry analysts and market research firms, and participation on industry standards and research committees. Our solutions address the needs of customers in various vertical markets, including retail, consumer goods, food and grocery, logistics service providers, industrial and wholesale, high technology and electronics, life sciences and government.

Cash Flow and Financial Condition

          For 2009, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $58.3 million and have generated a cumulative total of $160.4 million for the three years ended 2007, 2008 and 2009. Our cash and investments at December 31, 2009 totaled $123.0 million, with no debt on our balance sheet. We currently have no credit facilities. During the past three years, our primary uses of cash have been to continue funding of R&D investment and operations to drive earnings growth and to repurchase common stock.

          In January 2010, our Board of Directors approved raising our remaining share repurchase authority to $25.0 million. In 2010, we anticipate that our priorities for use of cash will be similar to prior years, with our first priority being continued investment in product development and profitably growing our business to extend our market leadership. We will continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that are complementary to our product footprint and technology direction. We will also continue to weigh our share

repurchase options against cash for acquisitions and investing in the business. We do not anticipate any borrowing requirements in 2010 for general corporate purposes.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

          The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

          Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. We believe that estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. To the extent there are material differences between those estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions are: Revenue Recognition, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Valuation of Goodwill, Accounting for Income Taxes, Stock-based Compensation, and Business Combinations.

          Revenue Recognition

          Our revenue consists of revenues from the licensing and hosting of software, fees from implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancements, and sales of hardware and other (other consists of reimbursements of out of pocket expenses incurred by professional services). All revenue is recognized net of any related sales taxes.

          We recognize license revenue when the following criteria are met: (1) a signed contract is obtained; (2) delivery of the product has occurred; (3) the license fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is probable. Revenue recognition for software with multiple-element arrangements requires recognition of revenue using the “residual method” when (a) there is vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting; (b) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement; and (c) all other applicable revenue-recognition criteria for software revenue recognition, other than the requirement for vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the arrangement are satisfied. For those contracts that contain significant customization or modifications, license revenue is recognized using contract accounting.

          We allocate revenue to customer support and software enhancements and any other undelivered elements of the arrangement based on vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE, of fair value of each element and such amounts are deferred until the applicable delivery criteria and other revenue recognition criteria have been met. The balance of the revenue, net of any discounts inherent in the arrangement, is recognized at the outset of the arrangement using the residual method as the product licenses are delivered. If we cannot objectively determine the fair value of each undelivered element based on the VSOE of fair value, we defer revenue recognition until all elements are delivered, all services have been performed, or until fair value can be objectively determined. We must apply judgment in determining all elements of the arrangement and in determining the VSOE of fair value for each element, considering the price charged for each product on a stand-alone basis or applicable renewal rates.

          The accounting related to license revenue recognition in the software industry is complex and affected by interpretations of the rules which are subject to change. Our judgment is required in assessing the probability of collection, which is generally based on evaluation of customer-specific information, historical collection experience and economic market conditions. If market conditions decline, or if the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, we may be unable to determine that collectibility is probable, and we could be required to defer the recognition of revenue until we receive customer payments.

          Our services revenue consists of fees generated from professional services, customer support services and software enhancements related to our software products. Fees from professional services performed by us are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are sometimes rendered under agreements in which billings are limited to contractual maximums or based upon a fixed-fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee based contracts is recognized on a proportional performance basis based on the hours incurred on discrete projects within an overall services arrangement. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period in which they become known.

Revenue related to customer support services and software enhancements is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months.

          Hardware and other revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties that are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. As part of a complete solution, our customers periodically purchase hardware from us in conjunction with the licensing of software. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, radio frequency identification (“RFID”) chip readers, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. Hardware revenue is recognized upon shipment to the customer when title passes. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain significant hardware inventory.

          In accordance with the other presentation matters within the Revenue Recognition Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, we recognize amounts associated with reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses as revenue. Such amounts have been included in hardware and other revenue. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to revenue was $7.5 million, $12.7 million and $13.0 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

          Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

          We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain an allowance for estimated credits based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts generally represent a sales allowance on services revenue, which are recorded to operations as a reduction to services revenue. While such losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same loss rates that we have in the past.

          Valuation of Goodwill

          In accordance with the Goodwill and Other Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, we do not amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. Our goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test, which requires us to estimate the fair value of our business compared to the carrying value. The impairment reviews require an analysis of future projections and assumptions about our operating performance. Should such review indicate the assets are impaired, we would record an expense for the impaired assets.

          Annual tests or other future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that our goodwill is impaired. For example, if we had reason to believe that our recorded goodwill had become impaired due to decreases in the fair market value of the underlying business, we would have to record a charge to income for that portion of goodwill that we believed was impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations. At December 31, 2009, our goodwill balance was $62.3 million.

          Accounting for Income Taxes

          We provide for the effect of income taxes on our financial position and results of operations in accordance with the Income Taxes Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Under this accounting pronouncement, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and for the change in net deferred tax assets or liabilities resulting from events that are recorded for financial reporting purposes in a different reporting period than recorded in the tax return. Management must make significant assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against our net deferred tax asset.

          Our judgments, assumptions and estimates relative to the current provision for income tax take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws, allowable deductions, projected tax credits and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. We do not recognize a tax benefit unless we conclude that it is more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on audit by the taxing authority based solely on the technical merits of the associated tax position. If the recognition threshold is met, we recognize a tax benefit measured at the largest amount of the tax benefit that, in our judgment, is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized. Changes in tax law or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our financial position and results of operations. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the value of our net deferred tax asset take into account predictions of the

amount and category of future taxable income. Actual operating results and the underlying amount and category of income in future years could render our current assumptions, judgments and estimates of recoverable net deferred taxes inaccurate, thus materially impacting our financial position and results of operations.

          Stock-Based Compensation

          We estimate the fair value of options granted on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We base our estimate of fair value on certain assumptions, including the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option, the expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term, and the risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option. We base our expected volatilities on a combination of the historical volatility of our stock and the implied volatility of publicly traded options (issued by third party) for our common stock. Due to the limited trading volume of publicly traded options for our common stock, we place a greater emphasis on historical volatility of our common stock. We also use historical data to estimate the term that options are expected to be outstanding and the forfeiture rate of options granted. We base the risk-free interest rate on the rate for U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term approximating the expected term.

          We recognize compensation cost for awards with graded vesting using the straight-line attribution method, with the amount of compensation cost recognized at any date at least equal to the portion of the grant-date value of the award that is vested at that date. Compensation cost recognized in any period is impacted by the number of stock options granted and the vesting period (which generally is four years), as well as the underlying assumptions used in estimating the fair value on the date of grant. This estimate is dependent upon a number of variables such as the number of options awarded, cancelled or exercised and fluctuations in our share price during the year.

          In January 2010 our Compensation Committee approved certain changes to our historical equity incentive grant practices, with the objective to optimize its performance and retention strength while managing program share usage to improve long-term equity overhang. The changes eliminate stock option awards in favor of 100% restricted stock grants, which for the 2010 awards contain vesting provisions that are 50% service-based and 50% performance-based. The awards have a four year vesting period, with the performance portion tied to annual revenue and adjusted earnings per share targets.

          Business Combinations

          In accordance with business combination accounting, we allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.

          Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from customer contracts and acquired developed technologies; the acquired company’s brand awareness and market position, as well as assumptions about the period of time the acquired brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio; and discount rates. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.

          In connection with purchase price allocations, we estimate the fair value of the support obligations assumed in connection with acquisitions. The estimated fair value of the support obligations is determined utilizing a cost build-up approach. The cost build-up approach determines fair value by estimating the costs related to fulfilling the obligations plus a normal profit margin. The estimated costs to fulfill the support obligations are based on the historical direct costs related to providing the support services and to correct any errors in the software products acquired. We do not include any costs associated with selling efforts, upgrades, or research and development or the related fulfillment margins on these costs. Profit associated with selling effort is excluded because the acquired entities would have concluded the selling effort on the support contracts prior to the acquisition date. The estimated research and development costs are not included in the fair value determination, as these costs are not deemed to represent a legal obligation at the time of acquisition. The sum of the costs and operating profit approximates, in theory, the amount that we would be required to pay a third party to assume the support obligation.

Accounting Charges

          Restructuring charge. During 2009, we committed to and initiated plans to reduce our workforce by approximately 140 positions to realign our capacity with demand forecasts. As a result of this action, we recorded employee severance expense and outplacement service fees of $3.8 million pretax ($2.5 million after-tax or $0.11 per fully diluted share). We also recorded additional employee severance expense of $63,000 in the first quarter of 2009 related to the restructuring action taken in 2008.

          During 2008, we committed to and initiated plans to reduce our workforce by approximately 170 positions to realign our capacity with demand forecasts. As a result of this action, we recorded employee severance expense and outplacement service fees of approximately $4.7 million pretax ($3.0 million after-tax or $0.13 per fully diluted share) in the fourth quarter of 2008.

          Asset Impairment Charges. During 2008, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $1.7 million, writing down the remaining balance of a $2.0 million investment in an RFID technology company we made in July 2003. We recorded the additional impairment due to a combination of continued negative financial results reported by this company in a very competitive sector and a “down round” of financing (i.e., a round of financing that was dilutive to our investment) in which our preferred share ownership was converted into common stock, eliminating our preference rights associated with liquidation, thereby substantially impairing our ability to recoup our investment.

          In addition, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $3.5 million on an investment in an auction rate security. We reduced the carrying value to zero due to a combination of credit downgrades of the underlying issuer and the bond insurer as well as increased publicly reported exposure to bankruptcy risk by the issuer and continued significant deterioration in the credit markets limiting the issuer’s ability to re-finance the underlying bond.

          We manage our business based on three geographic regions: the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Geographic revenue information is based on the location of sale. The revenues represented below are from external customers only. The geographical-based expenses include costs of personnel, direct sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative costs to support the business. There are certain corporate expenses included in the Americas region that are not charged to the other segments including research and development, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support the global organization and the amortization of acquired developed technology. Included in the Americas costs are all research and development costs, including the costs associated with the Company’s India operations. During 2009, 2008 and 2007, we derived the majority of our revenues from sales to customers within our Americas region. The following table summarizes revenue and operating profit by region:

The results of our operations for year 2009, 2008, and 2007 are discussed below.

Revenue

          Our revenue consists of fees generated from the licensing and hosting of software; fees from professional services, customer support services and software enhancements; hardware sales of complementary radio frequency and computer equipment; and other revenue representing amounts associated with reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses.

License revenue

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          License revenue decreased $30.6 million, or 47%, to $34.7 million in 2009 over 2008, primarily, we believe, driven by the current global economic recession, which has decreased sales and lengthened sales cycles in the global market as customers and prospects have constrained capital spending. Our Americas, EMEA and APAC license revenue decreased $21.7 million, $6.3 million, and $2.6 million, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year.

          The license sales percentage mix across our product suite in 2009 was approximately 60% of warehouse management solutions and 40% non-warehouse management solutions. Our warehouse management solutions decreased $15.6 million, or 44%, in 2009 compared to 2008 and non-warehouse management solutions decreased $15.0 million, or 51%, in 2009 over 2008.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          License revenue decreased 11%, or $7.7 million in 2008 compared to 2007. Americas and EMEA license revenue declined $10.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, driven, we believe, by the global macro-economic slowdown, which lengthened sales cycles in our markets in the last half of 2008. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in APAC license revenue of $3.0 million.

          License sales mix across our product suite was approximately 55% of sales in our warehouse management solutions and 45% in non-warehouse management solutions in 2008. Sales of warehouse management solutions and non-warehouse management solutions declined 7% and 15%, respectively, in 2008 compared to 2007.

Services revenue

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          Services revenue decreased $46.1 million, or 20%, in 2009 compared to 2008 principally due to a $46.2 million, or 29%, decrease in professional services revenue. The Americas, EMEA and APAC segments decreased $36.7 million, $7.5 million, and $1.9 million, respectively, in 2009 compared to 2008. Over the last year, our services revenue decline has primarily been caused by a decline in license revenues and delayed or suspended multiple site implementations and/or upgrades. We believe our revenue decline is principally due to the global economic recession, which in turn has severely impacted our customers’ capital investment levels, prioritization and timing.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          Services revenue increased 4%, or $9.8 million, in 2008 over 2007 principally due to a 15% or $9.9 million increase of software enhancements revenue. The EMEA and Americas segments led the growth with an increase in services revenue of $6.5 million, or 26%, and $5.5 million, or 3%, respectively, from 2007 to 2008. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in APAC services revenue of $2.2 million, or 16%, from 2007 to 2008 due to the lack of large license sales closed in 2007.

          Additionally, over the past several years, our services revenue growth and margins have been affected by some pricing pressures. We believe that the pricing pressures are attributable to deteriorating global macro-economic conditions and competition.

Hardware and other

          Sales of hardware decreased $8.6 million, or 37%, in 2009 compared to 2008. Sales of hardware decreased $2.0 million, or 8%, in 2008 compared to 2007. In 2009, our Americas segment accounted for nearly 100% of hardware sales. Sales of hardware are largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate. Other revenue represents reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses that are required to be classified as revenue and are included in hardware and other revenue. For 2009, 2008 and 2007, reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $7.5 million, $12.7 million and $13.0 million, respectively.

Total cost of revenue		$	107,461			$	151,938			$	147,360				-29	%			3	%

Cost of License

          Cost of license consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; hosting services; media, packaging and delivery, documentation and other related costs; and royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products. Cost of licenses decreased $1.2 million, or 21%, in 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to a 47% decrease in license revenue. Cost of license increased $0.6 million, or 12%, to $6.0 million in 2008 due to an increase in costs associated with our hosting services.

Cost of Services

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          Cost of services consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to professional and technical services and customer support services. Cost of services decreased $32.4 million, or 28%, in 2009 compared to 2008 principally due to (i) a $21.7 million decrease in employee-related costs such as salary, benefits and payroll taxes resulting from a decrease in the number of professional services personnel due to headcount reduction initiatives in the fourth quarter of 2008 and the second quarter of 2009 to align capacity with demand, (ii) a $4.4 million decrease in performance based bonus expense caused by lower year over year revenue performance as well as lower headcount, and (iii) a $3.3 million decrease in travel expenses due to fewer services projects.

     Services gross margin increased 5.1 percentage points to 55.6% in 2009 from 50.5% in 2008. The increase in services margin is attributable to the decrease in professional services costs in the current year driven by our expense reduction actions and lower performance based compensation expense.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          The 6% increase in cost of services in 2008, from $109.8 million to $116.7 million, was primarily due to: (i) a $6.7 million increase in salary-related costs resulting from a 10% increase in the average number of personnel dedicated to the delivery of professional services, prior to our fourth quarter workforce reduction; (ii) an $0.8 million increase in travel expenses, and (iii) a $0.5 million increase in third-party software maintenance, partially offset by a decrease of $1.4 million in bonus expense.

          Services gross margin decreased 90 basis points to 50.5% in 2008. The reduction in the services gross margin in 2008 was caused by the more intricate services work required as our sales mix shifted from our heritage System i platform to our Open Systems platform.

Cost of Hardware and other

          Cost of hardware was $11.0 million, $17.0 million, and $19.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Cost of hardware decreased as a direct result of decreased hardware sales. Cost of hardware and other includes out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by customers of approximately $7.4 million, $12.3 million and $13.0 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease in reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses correlates to the decrease in services revenue.

Research and Development

          Our principal research and development activities during 2009, 2008 and 2007 focused on the expansion and integration of new products acquired and new product releases and expanding the product footprint of our supply chain optimization solutions called Supply Chain Optimization from Planning through Execution. The Manhattan SCOPE Platform provides not only a sophisticated service oriented architecture based application framework, but a platform that facilitates the integration with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and other supply chain solutions.

          For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, we capitalized no research and development costs because the costs incurred following the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date of general release were insignificant.

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and other personnel-related costs for personnel involved in our research and development activities. Consistent with prior years, we typically invest approximately 14% to 15% of total revenue in research and development. In 2009, research and development expenses decreased to $36.7 million primarily due to: (i) a $7.7 million decrease in salary-related costs resulting from a decrease in the number of R&D personnel; (ii) a $1.4 million decrease in bonuses caused by headcount reductions as well as lower achievement of performance based compensation; and (iii) a $1.0 million decrease in travel expenses.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          Research and development expense increased $1.8 million, or 4%, in 2008 to $48.4 million as compared to $46.6 million in 2007. This increase is principally attributable to a realignment of resources from service projects to research and development activities.

Sales and Marketing

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions, travel and other personnel-related costs and the costs of our marketing and alliance programs and related activities. The $15.0 million, or 29%, decrease in sales and marketing expenses in 2009 compared to 2008 was attributable to lower headcount and license revenue which resulted in: (i) a $7.9 million decrease in employee-related costs such as salary, benefits, payroll taxes and stock compensation expense, (ii) a $4.2 million decrease in bonus and commission expense, and (iii) a $2.7 million decrease in travel expenses.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          Sales and marketing expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 4%, to $51.2 million in 2008 compared to 2007. The decrease in sales and marketing expense in 2008 is principally caused by the decrease of $2.9 million in bonus and commissions due to the year over year decrease in license revenue, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in stock compensation expense.

General and Administrative

Year 2009 compared with year 2008

          General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of executive, financial, human resources, information technology and administrative personnel, as well as facilities, legal, insurance, accounting and other administrative expenses. The net decrease of $7.2 million, or 19%, in general and administrative expenses in 2009 compared to 2008 was primarily attributable to (i) a $2.9 million decrease in employee-related expense such as salary, benefits, payroll taxes related to workforce and expense reduction initiatives, (ii) a $1.5 million decrease in expense for transaction tax exposure reserves, and (iii) a $1.1 million reduction in bonus expense due to the decline in total revenue and earnings per share.

Year 2008 compared with year 2007

          The increase in general and administrative expenses from 2007 to 2008 of $3.8 million to $37.1 million was primarily attributable to: (i) a $1.5 million reserve for transaction tax exposure, (ii) a $1.2 million reduction in recoveries of previously expensed sales tax resulting from the expiration of the sales tax audit statutes in certain states in 2007, (iii) $1.3 million of incremental stock compensation expense, and (iv) a $1.0 million increase in salary-related costs resulting from a 7% increase in the average number of personnel, partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in travel expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization

          Depreciation expense amounted to $8.4 million, $9.4 million and $9.0 million, during 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively, and has decreased due to decreased in capital expenditures. Amortization of intangibles amounted to $3.0 million, $3.3 million and $4.6 million during 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. We have recorded goodwill and other acquisition-related intangible assets as part of the purchase accounting associated with various acquisitions. The decreases in amortization expense in 2009 and 2008 of $0.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, were mainly associated with certain intangible assets related to prior acquisitions, which became fully amortized.

Restructuring charge

          During 2009, we committed to and initiated plans to reduce our workforce by approximately 140 positions to realign our capacity with demand forecasts. As a result of this action, we recorded employee severance expense and outplacement service fees of approximately $3.8 million pretax ($2.5 million after-tax or $0.11 per fully diluted share). We also recorded additional employee severance expense of $63,000 in the first quarter of 2009 related to the restructuring action taken in 2008.

          During 2008, we committed to and initiated plans to reduce our workforce by approximately 170 positions to realign our capacity with demand forecasts. As a result of this action, we recorded employee severance expense and outplacement service fees of approximately $4.7 million pretax ($3.0 million after-tax or $0.13 per fully diluted share) in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Asset impairment charges

          Asset impairment charges of $5.2 million in 2008 consist of a $3.5 million impairment on an investment in an auction-rate security and a $1.7 million impairment on an investment in an RFID technology company. We reduced the carrying value of the auction-rate security investment to zero due to a combination of credit downgrades of the underlying issuer and the bond insurer as well as increased publicly reported exposure to bankruptcy risk by the issuer and continued significant deterioration in the credit markets limiting the issuer’s ability to re-finance the underlying bond. We wrote down the remaining balance of our $2.0 million investment in the company due to a combination of continued negative financial results reported by this company in a very competitive sector and a “down round” of financing (i.e., a round of financing that was dilutive to our investment) in which our preferred share ownership was converted into common stock, eliminating our preference rights associated with liquidation, thereby substantially impairing our ability to recoup our investment.

Operating Income

          Operating income in 2009 decreased by $4.8 million on the consolidated revenue decline of 27% to $21.1 million compared to $26.0 million in 2008. Operating margins improved to 8.6% in 2009 from 7.7% in 2008 primarily due to the decrease in total costs in the current year driven by our actions to lower headcount to align capacity with demand combined with lower performance based compensation expense. Operating income in the Americas segment increased by $2.6 million while the EMEA and APAC segment decreased by $5.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively in 2009.

          Operating income in 2008 decreased by $17.1 million on flat consolidated revenue year over year. Operating margins declined from 12.8% in 2007 to 7.7% in 2008. The decline in profit contribution and margin in 2008 was largely driven by the following factors: (i) lower license revenues in 2008, which have a relatively higher margin compared to services revenues, (ii) $5.2 million of asset write-downs, (iii) a $4.7 million restructuring charge, (iv) a $1.2 million increase in stock option expense, and (v) a $1.8 million increase in research and development investment. Operating income in the Americas segment decreased by $21.5 million, or 53%, due to incremental stock compensation expense of $1.2 million, asset write-downs of $5.2 million and a restructuring charge of $4.4 million. Operating income in EMEA and APAC increased $4.3 million on strong revenue growth.

Other (Expense) Income and Income Taxes

		Year Ended December 31,
														% Change vs. Prior Year
		2009				2008				2007				2009				2008
Other (expense) income, net		$	(756	)		$	5,545			$	4,608				-114	%			20	%
Income tax provision			3,824				8,710				16,915				-56	%			-49	%

Other (Expense) Income, net

          Other (expense) income, net primarily includes interest income, foreign currency gains and losses, and other non-operating expenses. Interest income was $0.4 million, $1.8 million, and $3.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. The decrease of $1.4 million in interest income in 2009 compared to 2008 was due to a lower weighted-average interest rate earned. The decrease of $1.6 million in interest income in 2008 compared to 2007 was caused by an overall lower average investment balances driven by our share repurchase program. The weighted-average interest rate earned on cash and investment securities was less than 0.5%, 2.3% and 3.3% for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $1.0 million in 2009 and net foreign currency gains of $3.9 million and $1.2 million in 2008 and 2007, respectively. The foreign currency loss and gains mainly resulted from loss or gains on intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the Indian Rupee, the British Pound and the Euro.

Income Tax Provision

          Our effective income tax rates were 18.8%, 27.6%, and 35.5% in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our effective income tax rate takes into account the source of taxable income, domestically by state and internationally by country, and available income tax credits. The reduction in the effective income tax rate in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily resulted from a release of income tax reserves resulting from expiring tax audit statutes for U.S. federal income tax returns filed for 2005 and prior. The reduction in the effective income tax rate in 2008 compared to 2007 primarily resulted from a release of income tax reserves resulting from expiring tax audit statutes for U.S. federal income tax returns filed for 2004 and prior, partially offset by the asset impairment charges for which no tax benefit was recorded.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

          During 2009, 2008, and 2007, we funded our operations through cash generated from operations. As of December 31, 2009, we had $123.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments as compared to $88.7 million at December 31, 2008.

          Our operating activities provided cash of $58.3 million, $63.8 million and $38.3 million in 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. Cash from operating activities for 2009 decreased $5.5 million compared to 2008 due to lower revenue partially offset by strong accounts receivable collections. Days sales outstanding (DSO) was 56 days at December 31, 2009 as compared to 78 days at December 31, 2008. Cash from operating activities for 2008 increased by $25.6 million compared to 2007 principally due to strong accounts receivable collections.

          The use of cash for investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was for capital expenditures of approximately $2.3 million. During 2008, our investing activities provided cash of approximately $13.9 million from net maturities and sales of investments of $21.6 million, partially offset by payments in connection with purchases of capital equipment of $7.7 million. Our investing activities provided cash of approximately $75.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily from the net maturities of investments of $84.5 million, which was used mainly to fund stock repurchases, partially offset by payments of $9.4 million for capital equipment to support our business and infrastructure.

          Our financing activities used cash of approximately $21.7 million, $31.8 million and $88.3 million in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The principal use of cash for financing activities was to repurchase shares of our common stock for approximately $23.4 million, $35.1 million, and $99.9 million in 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. These repurchases were partially offset by the proceeds from the issuance of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options of $1.7 million, $3.2 million, and $10.9 million in 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. In January 2010, our Board of Directors increased our remaining share repurchase authority of $12.2 million at December 31, 2009 to a total of $25.0 million.

          Periodically, opportunities may arise to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary and synergistic companies, products and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing and nature of the consideration to be paid. We believe that existing balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. We anticipate that we will be able to continue fund our operations with cash flow from operations in the future. We do not maintain any bank line of credit. However, if the Company should encounter a need to raise additional capital, recent turmoil in the credit and capital markets could make such capital unavailable or available only at unfavorable costs.

New Accounting Pronouncements

          In June 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification^TM and a new Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which establishes only two levels of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”): authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) is now the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, which are additional sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. The Codification is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted the new guidelines and numbering system prescribed by the Codification when referring to GAAP in the third quarter of 2009. As the Codification is not intended to change or alter existing GAAP for public companies, it does not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

          In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on subsequent events. This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, the subsequent events guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009. We adopted this standard effective June 15, 2009 and have evaluated any subsequent events through the date of this filing. The adoption of the subsequent events guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

          In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on business combinations. This guidance is significantly changes the accounting for business combinations. Under the business combination guidance, an acquiring entity is required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. This guidance changes the accounting treatment for certain specific acquisition-related items, including by requiring the expensing of acquisition-

related costs as incurred and expensing of restructuring costs associated with an acquired business. This guidance also includes a substantial number of new disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The business combination guidance is to be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. We expect that this guidance will have an impact on its accounting for future business combinations, but the extent of the impact is dependent upon the number, size, and complexity of acquisitions that we make in the future.

          In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which establishes a framework for reporting fair value and expands disclosures required for fair value measurements. The fair value measurement guidance applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this guidance does not require any new fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. However, in February 2008, the FASB delayed for one year the applicability of fair-value measurements to non-financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The Company partially adopted the fair value measurement on January 1, 2008 related to all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis. We have adopted fair value measurement for non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at January 1, 2009 and will continue to apply its provisions prospectively from January 1, 2009. The application of fair value measurement for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations nor our financial position in 2009.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

          Our principal commitments as of December 31, 2009 consist of obligations under operating leases. We expect to fulfill all of the following commitments from our working capital. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of SEC rules.

Lease Commitments

          We lease our facilities and some of our equipment under noncancelable operating lease arrangements that expire at various dates through 2018. Rent expense for these leases aggregated $6.1 million, $7.2 million and $6.7 million during 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

          The following table summarizes our contractual commitments as of December 31, 2009 (in thousands):

		Total					2010				2011				2012				2013				2014				Thereafter
Non-cancelable operating leases		$	46,979				$	6,373			$	5,929			$	5,221			$	5,003			$	4,911			$	19,542

          Indemnifications

          Our sales agreements with customers generally contain infringement indemnity provisions. Under these agreements, we agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the customer in connection with patent, copyright or trade secret infringement claims made by third parties with respect to the customer’s authorized use of our products and services. The indemnity provisions generally provide for our control of defense and settlement and cover costs and damages finally awarded against the customer, as well as our modification of the product so it is no longer infringing or, if it cannot be corrected, return of the product for a refund. Our sales agreements with customers sometimes also contain indemnity provisions for death, personal injury or property damage caused by our personnel or contractors in the course of performing services to customers. Under these agreements, we agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the customer in connection with death, personal injury and property damage claims made by third parties with respect to actions of our personnel or contractors. The indemnity provisions generally provide for our control of defense and settlement and cover costs and damages finally awarded against the customer. The indemnity obligations contained in sales agreements generally have no specified expiration date and no specified monetary limitation on the amount of award covered. We have not previously incurred costs to settle claims or pay awards under these indemnification obligations. We account for these indemnity obligations in accordance with FASB guidance on accounting for contingencies, and record a liability for these obligations when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of December 31, 2009.

          Warranties

          We warrant to our customers that our software products will perform in all material respects in accordance with our standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery of the licensed products to the customer for 6 months after first use of the licensed products, but no more than 24 months after execution of the license agreement. Additionally, we warrant to our customers that our services will be performed consistent with generally accepted industry standards or specific service levels through completion of the agreed upon services. If necessary, we would provide for the estimated cost of product and service warranties based on specific warranty claims and claim history. However, we have not incurred significant recurring expense under our product or service warranties. As a result, we believe the estimated fair value of these agreements is nominal. Accordingly, we have no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2009.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Business

          Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Our international operations currently include business activity out of offices in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Australia, China, Japan, Singapore and India. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against a foreign currency, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars increases. We recognized a foreign exchange loss of $1.0 million, in 2009 and foreign exchange gains of $3.9 million and $1.2 million in 2008 and 2007, respectively. Foreign exchange rate transaction gains and losses are classified in “Other (expense) income, net” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. A fluctuation of 10% in the period end exchange rates at December 31, 2009 and 2008 relative to the U.S. dollar would result in changes of approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million in the reported foreign currency gain or loss, respectively.

Interest Rates

          We invest our cash in a variety of financial instruments, including taxable and tax-advantaged floating rate obligations of municipalities, and local, state and national governmental entities and agencies. These investments are denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are derived from operations. At December 31, 2009, our cash, cash equivalent, and investments balance totaled $123.0 million, of which $120.2 million is 100% liquid. The remaining investments totaling $2.8 million are invested in auction rate securities.

          Our cash equivalent balance at December 31, 2009 was $57.3 million. Cash equivalents principally consist of highly liquid money market funds with remaining maturities of less than three months when purchased. These investments are categorized as available-for-sale securities and recorded at fair market value. At December 31, 2009, we hold $6.5 million of investments in auction rate securities, which have original maturities greater than one year, but which have auctions to reset the yield every 7 to 35 days. The fair values of these auction rate securities considered the credit worthiness of the counterparty, estimates of interest rates, expected holding periods, and the timing and value of expected future cash flows. Changes in the assumptions of our valuation could have a significant impact on the value of these securities, which may cause losses and affect our liquidity specifically for these securities potentially requiring us to record an impairment charge on these investments in the future. Certain auctions failed during 2008 and the underlying securities were not redeemed by the issuer. During 2008, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $3.5 million on one of these investments reducing the carrying value to zero due to credit downgrades of the underlying issuer and the bond insurer as well as increasing publicly reported exposure to bankruptcy risk by the issuer. During 2009 and 2008, we also recorded temporary impairment charges totaling $0.2 million on the investments, resulting in $2.8 million in total auction rate securities investments on the balance sheet at December 31, 2009. The remaining $2.8 million of auction rate securities held by us at December 31, 2009 were issued by state or regional educational loan authorities and are collateralized by federally insured student loans. These investments have high credit ratings, and we intend and have the ability to hold these securities until maturity or until called. The unrealized loss is included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and in total comprehensive income. We will continue to evaluate the fair value of our investments in auction rate securities each reporting period for a potential other-than-temporary impairment.

          Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce

less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have seen a decline in market value due to changes in interest rates. The weighted-average interest rate of return on cash and investment securities is less than 0.5% for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 2.3% for the year ended December 31, 2008. The fair value of cash equivalents and investments held at December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $60.1 million and $49.3 million, respectively. Based on the average investments outstanding during 2009 and 2008, increases or decreases of 25 basis points would result in increases or decreases to interest income of approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively, from the reported interest income.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

          Management of Manhattan Associates, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

          The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

          Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

          As of the end of the Company’s 2009 fiscal year, management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 was effective.

          Ernst & Young, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, has audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 and has issued a report regarding the Company’s internal control over financial reporting appearing on page 44, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009.

We have audited Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries’ management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009 of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries and our report dated February 19, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Manhattan Associates, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted the provisions originally issued in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 , effective January 1, 2007.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 19, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
