PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

You should read the following summary together with the entire prospectus, including the more detailed information in our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in the back of this prospectus. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters discussed in “Risk Factors.”

 

MOTIVE, INC.

 

We are a leading provider of service management software that enables companies to build management and service directly into their customer-facing products and services. A large and increasing number of companies are employing digital hardware, software and communications technologies to enhance or, in some cases, completely redefine the products and services they sell. These new technology-enabled products create strategic growth opportunities in industries as diverse as computers, communications, software and financial services, but the costs associated with managing state-of-the-art technology environments can be over five times the cost of the technology itself. These high costs are the result of the many manual and inefficient processes required of both the providers and consumers of technology products—processes such as activation, set-up, troubleshooting, updating and repair. Our software optimizes these processes by embedding self-management services directly into our customers’ technology products.

 

Our product suite includes three distinct types of service management products. Our Self-Management products optimize management processes for the end users and administrators of technology-enabled products and services. Our Service Operations Management products optimize the processes involved in delivering service and support for these complex technology products and services, simplifying and streamlining the operations of large-scale call centers and advanced remote technical support teams. Our Policy Management products enable product vendors and service providers to manage the usage of their products and services according to business objectives and policy guidelines.

 

As technology-enabled products and services have proliferated, companies have struggled with the time-consuming, labor-intensive and error-prone management processes that surround them. Service management software is an emerging category of management infrastructure software designed to optimize the effectiveness and efficiency of these management processes. Service management software takes a top-down, business-driven view of the ecosystem of people, processes and technology that work together in support of the most strategic products and services offered by a company. According to International Data Corporation, the market opportunity for service-centric management software is anticipated to grow from an estimated $1.7 billion in 2004 to an estimated $3.5 billion in 2007. We believe that service management software has become a primary driver of growth in the broader $10 billion systems and network management software industry.

 

Our software is unique in three specific ways, providing significant competitive advantages over typical infrastructure management solutions:

 

  ·   first, our service management software is built directly into technology products and services enabling self-configuration (the ability to adapt “real time” to changing environments), self-repair (the ability to detect problems and automatically resolve them) and self-regulation (the ability to enforce policies that govern the acceptable use of products and services);

 

  ·   second, through our automated modeling and differencing approach, our software defines the optimal set-up and operational parameters of these products and services and automatically detects and corrects differences that develop as the products are used; and

 

  ·   third, our software uses a process-driven management approach to automate the end-to-end execution of key management processes that surround these technology products.

We believe that our solutions provide important advantages over other infrastructure management approaches and allow our customers to:

 

  ·   rapidly and cost-effectively adjust to change while minimizing time and labor costs that can impede business growth and profit objectives;

 

  ·   implement new service offerings faster and with less investment and risk;

 

  ·   optimize management and service processes beyond company boundaries;

 

  ·   avoid wasting time and labor troubleshooting system, application or network problems and to reduce the number of calls to service centers and information technology, or IT, operations; and

 

  ·   improve asset utilization by locating under- and over-utilized technology assets and allocating usage in the most profitable manner.

 

Our products are complemented by a suite of services to assist customers in rapidly implementing their service management initiatives, optimizing their business processes and measuring the financial impact of our solution.

 

Since our inception, we have developed and successfully deployed our service management software solutions to industry-leading technology vendors, service providers and large enterprises. We estimate that these customers have used our software in connection with more than 30 million technology products and devices. Our customers include Advanced Digital Information Corp., Aliant Inc., AOL (UK) Limited, Bell Canada, BellSouth Corporation, British Telecommunications plc, Centrica Telecommunications Limited, Cognos Incorporated, Cox Communications, Inc., Deutsche Telekom, EMC Corporation, Fannie Mae, Fujitsu Limited, Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P., Hyperion Solutions Corporation, Mercury Interactive Corporation, NTL Group Ltd., N.V. Casema, SBC Communications, Inc., Sprint Communications Company, Storage Technology Corporation, Stratus Computer, Inc., Swisscom AG, Telecom Italia Media S.p.a., Telenet, Telewest Broadband, Telus Corporation, Time Warner Cable/RoadRunner, Inc., T-Online France, VERITAS Software Corporation, Verizon Communications and Warranty Corporation of America.

 

We were formed in 1997. Our principal executive offices are located at 12515 Research Boulevard, Building 5, Austin, Texas 78759-2220, and our telephone number is (512) 339-8335.

  (4)   License fees revenue has been restated to correct the fair value assigned to shares of common stock received from Peregrine Systems as payment pursuant to a software arrangement. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Overview-Peregrine Systems.” The effect of such restatement was to increase license fees revenue by $3,520,000 and to increase loss on investment, net of recovery, by approximately $3,520,000.
  (5)   Cost of license fees revenue has been restated to immediately expense certain license royalties paid for software that was not ultimately utilized. The effect of such restatement in 2003 was to increase cost of license fees revenue by $307,000. The effect of such restatement for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was to decrease cost of license fees revenue by $307,000.
  (6)   In January 2003, we assumed liabilities related to existing software arrangements with a fair value of approximately $40.1 million as a result of our acquisition of BroadJump, Inc. The fair value of these assumed liabilities, which was recorded as deferred revenue, relates to the remaining contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements and is being recognized ratably as services revenue acquired in business combination over the remaining life of the individual contractual obligations. This revenue will continue to decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and the other information in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, before investing in our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed by any of the following risks. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, in which case you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

Our total revenue was $24.7 million in the second quarter, $20.0 million in the third quarter and $27.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $22.7 million in the first quarter of 2004, and we expect that our quarterly financial results will continue to fluctuate and may be difficult to predict. If our future results are below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, the price of our common stock may decline.

 

Our quarterly revenue and results of operations are difficult to predict. Unlike more established enterprise software vendors, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, fluctuations in revenue and operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results are not necessarily meaningful, and that such comparisons may not be accurate indicators of future performance. The reasons for these fluctuations include, but are not limited to:

 

  ·   the timing of sales of our software, including the relatively long sales cycles of up to nine months or more associated with most of our larger software sales to large enterprises;

 

  ·   our quarterly revenue is dependent on larger software sales to a relatively small number of large enterprises;

 

  ·   our dependence on license revenue from new software sales (as opposed to recurring maintenance revenue) to achieve our revenue objectives;

 

  ·   budget and spending decisions by our customers, who are concentrated in the communications and high technology markets;

 

  ·   our ability to renew existing licenses, most of which are for a term of three years, or to secure new licenses on beneficial terms;

 

  ·   demand for our service management software;

 

  ·   market acceptance of newly released products or delays in new product introductions;

 

  ·   our utilization and billing rates for our professional services personnel;

 

  ·   our history of growth through acquisitions which have typically affected our operating results;

 

  ·   the amount and timing of operating costs related to the expansion of our business, operations and infrastructure; and

 

  ·   changes in our pricing policies or our competitors’ pricing policies.

 

In addition, we experience seasonality in our revenue, with the fourth quarter of the year typically having the highest revenue for the year. We believe that this seasonality results primarily from customer budgeting cycles and our sales compensation model. We expect that this seasonality will continue.

 

Our operating expenses, which include sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses, are based on our expectations of future revenue and are, to a large extent, fixed in the short term. If revenue falls below our expectations in a quarter and we are not able to quickly reduce our operating expenses in response, our operating results for that quarter could be adversely affected. It is possible that in some future quarter our operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors and, as a result, the price of our common stock may fall.

Our customer base is concentrated. For example, one customer accounted for 11% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003. Accordingly, the loss of a major customer could cause our revenue to decline.

 

Our quarterly revenue is especially subject to fluctuation because it depends on the completion of large orders for our products and related services primarily from a small number of large customers. For example, sales to Hewlett-Packard represented 19% of our total revenue in 2002. One customer, Mercury Interactive Corporation, accounted for 11% of our total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2003. Although our customer make-up varies from quarter to quarter, a small number of customers are likely to continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue, and our revenue could decline due to the loss or delay of a single customer order or the failure of an existing customer to renew its license. Our ability to mitigate this risk is based almost entirely on our ability to obtain additional customers and to expand our sales to existing customers. Our failure to obtain additional customers, the loss or delay of customer orders or the failure of existing customers to renew their licenses will harm our business and operating results.

 

We have never been profitable on an annual basis and we have incurred net losses in almost every fiscal period since we began operations. We may incur losses in the future.

 

To date, we have not been profitable on an annual basis and we have incurred net losses in almost every fiscal period since we began operations. For the year ended December 31, 2003, we had a net loss of $1.2 million and as of March 31, 2004, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $89.9 million. We will need to generate significant additional revenue and manage expenses appropriately to achieve and maintain profitability. Therefore, we may not be able to achieve or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

 

We have a limited history of sales of some of our products which makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects.

 

Some of the products in our current product suite have been released within the past year, including our Business Class Manager which was released in August 2003, our Usage Policy Manager which was released in September 2003 and our Technical Profile Manager which was released in May 2004. These products target solving customers’ problems that we have not previously addressed. There can be no assurance that our customers will perceive these products as adequately addressing those problems or that there will be substantial demand for them. It is difficult to evaluate our future prospects because of our limited experience with these products, the rapidly evolving and competitive nature of the markets in which we sell these products and other factors that are beyond our control.

 

The typical sales cycle for our products and services is long and it may be difficult for us to predict when certain customers will complete the sales cycle. As a result, our quarterly operating results may fluctuate and the price of our common stock could decline.

 

We believe that a customer’s decision to purchase our software and services is highly discretionary, involves a significant commitment of resources and is influenced by customer budgetary cycles. To successfully sell our software and services, we must educate potential customers regarding their use and benefits, which can require significant time and resources from us and our customers. The period between our initial contact with a potential customer and the purchase of our software and services is often long and subject to delays associated with the budgeting, approval and competitive evaluation processes that frequently accompany significant capital expenditures. Our sales cycle varies substantially and may require up to nine months or more depending on the customer and the size of the transaction. A lengthy sales cycle may have an impact on the timing of our revenue, which in turn could cause our quarterly operating results to fluctuate and our stock price to trade at lower levels than would otherwise be the case.

 

Our failure to adapt to technological change in our industry and to develop and achieve broad adoption and acceptance of our new products could cause the loss of existing and potential customers and therefore adversely affect our revenue and earnings. We are dependent on new product introductions for future revenue growth and such introductions involve significant risks.

 

If we fail to keep pace with technological change in our industry, such failure would have an adverse effect on our revenue and earnings. During the past several years, many new technological advancements and

competing products have entered the marketplace to address the same problems that our products and services are intended to address. Our ability to compete effectively and our growth prospects depend upon many factors, including the success of our existing software products, the timely introduction and success of future software products and releases and the ability of our products to interoperate and perform well with existing and future leading databases, applications, operating systems and other platforms. We have made significant investments in research and development and our business model requires us to generate substantial revenue from new product introductions. We released two new products in 2003, one new product in the second quarter of 2004 and anticipate releasing one new product in the third quarter of 2004. New product introductions involve significant risks. For example, delays in new product introductions or less-than-anticipated market acceptance of our new products are possible and would have an adverse effect on our revenue and earnings. We cannot be certain that our new products or future enhancements to existing products will meet customer performance needs or expectations when shipped or that they will be free of significant software defects or bugs. If they do not meet customer needs or expectations, for whatever reason, upgrading or enhancing these products could be costly and time consuming. In addition, the selling price of software products tends to decline significantly over the life of the product. If we are unable to offset any reductions in the selling prices of our products by introducing new products at higher prices or by reducing our costs, our revenue, gross margin and operating results would be adversely affected.

 

If we do not successfully address the risks inherent in the expansion of our international operations, our business could suffer.

 

We currently have operations in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain and Japan, and we intend to expand further into international markets. Unlike more established enterprise software vendors, we have limited experience in international operations and may not be able to compete effectively in international markets or to operate profitably in these markets. At the same time, our dependence on international revenue has steadily increased over time. From our inception through March 31, 2004, we have derived approximately $56.2 million of revenue from our customers outside the U.S., and our international revenue was $29.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $14.0 million over international revenue of $15.5 million for 2002. Our international revenue was $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of $5.4 million over international revenue of $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Continued expansion of our international operations will require a significant amount of attention from our management and substantial financial resources and may require us to add qualified management in these markets. Our direct sales model requires us to attract, retain and manage qualified sales personnel capable of selling into markets outside the U.S. In our opinion, this is significantly more difficult in markets outside the U.S. Additionally, in some cases, our costs of sales may increase if our customers require us to sell through local distributors.

 

In 2003, 32% of our revenue was derived from our international operations. If we are unable to continue to grow our international operations in a cost effective and timely manner, our business and operating results could be harmed. Doing business internationally involves additional risks that could harm our operating results, particularly:

 

  ·   differing technology standards;

 

  ·   difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods;

 

  ·   political and economic instability;

 

  ·   fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

 

  ·   imposition of currency exchange controls;

 

  ·   potentially adverse tax consequences;

 

  ·   reduced protection for intellectual property rights in certain countries;

 

  ·   dependence on local vendors;

 

  ·   compliance with multiple conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations;

 

  ·   seasonal reductions in business activity specific to certain markets;

  ·   longer sales cycles;

 

  ·   restrictions on repatriation of earnings;

 

  ·   differing labor regulations;

 

  ·   restrictive privacy regulations in different countries, particularly in the European Union;

 

  ·   restrictions on the export of sensitive U.S. technologies such as data security and encryption; and

 

  ·   import and export restrictions and tariffs.

 

Our business is dependent on the renewal of licenses by our existing customers. If our customers do not renew their licenses for our products or if they do not renew their licenses on terms that are favorable to us, our operating results could be adversely affected and the price of our common stock could decline.

 

Most of our licenses are for a fixed term of three years. For example, for the year ended December 31, 2003, approximately 78% of the license agreements we entered into were fixed term licenses, as opposed to perpetual licenses. In addition, the revenue from our contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition will decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining obligations expire. As the end of the term of a fixed term license approaches, we negotiate the renewal of the license with the customer for the same product and/or for new products and services. If our customers choose not to renew their fixed term licenses with us or if we are unable to license additional products to our existing customers on beneficial terms, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed.

 

If we do not expand our sales and distribution capabilities, we may not be able to expand the sales of our software and services and achieve revenue growth.

 

We need to substantially expand our direct and indirect sales and distribution efforts, both domestically and internationally, in order to increase sales of our software and related services. Competition for qualified sales and marketing personnel is intense, and we might not be able to hire and retain adequate numbers of such personnel to maintain our growth. Our sales and marketing organization grew from 74 employees at December 31, 2002 to 84 at December 31, 2003. New hires require training and take time to achieve full productivity. Our competitors have attempted to hire our employees and we expect that they will continue to do so. We also plan to expand our relationships with system integrators, enterprise software vendors and other third-party resellers to develop our indirect sales channel. As we develop our indirect sales channel, we will need to manage potential conflicts between our direct sales force and third-party reselling efforts.

 

If we do not expand our professional services organization, our customers may become dissatisfied and our operating results could suffer. Also, our professional services organization may not operate in a profitable manner.

 

Our software sales, particularly those to large enterprises, are often dependent on our ability to provide a significant level of professional services to our customers. Clients that license our software typically engage our professional services organization to assist with installation, training, consulting and implementation of our software. We believe that growth in our software sales depends to a significant degree on our ability to provide our clients with these services. We cannot be certain that our professional services business will operate in a profitable manner. For example, our cost of services revenue represented 104% and 113% of services revenue in 2000 and 2001, respectively. We plan to further increase the number of services personnel to meet customer needs. New services personnel will require training and education and take time to reach full productivity. We may not be able to recruit the services personnel we need or retain our current services personnel because competition for qualified services personnel is intense. We are in a relatively new market and only a limited number of individuals have the skills needed to provide the services that our clients require. To meet our needs for services personnel, we may also need to use third-party consultants to supplement our own professional services organization.

 

If we lose the services of any of our senior management or other key personnel, our business may be harmed.

 

Our success will depend on the skills, experience and performance of our senior management, engineering, sales, marketing and other key personnel, many of whom have worked together for only a short period of time.

Currently, we do not have long-term employment agreements with any of our executive officers, with the exception of Kenny Van Zant who joined us as a result of our acquisition of BroadJump and received an employment agreement as part of the terms and conditions of that acquisition. The loss of the services of any of our senior management or other key personnel, including our Chief Executive Officer, Scott Harmon, could harm our business. Mr. Harmon, in particular, is one of our co-founders and possesses unique knowledge of our markets, our products and our customers. We possess key man life insurance for Scott Harmon, but not for any of our other officers.

 

Our failure to expand our strategic alliances would impede our revenue growth.

 

Unlike more established enterprise software vendors, we must successfully establish and extend relationships that enable us to expand market acceptance of our software solutions. Specifically, we must establish new and extend existing distribution alliances with specialized technology and services firms, such as support outsourcers. We must also establish new and extend existing solutions alliances with leading providers of complementary technologies. Although our business does not depend on any one strategic alliance, our strategic alliances as a whole are a valuable component of our business. Without adequate strategic alliances, we may have to devote substantially more resources than we would otherwise to the sales, marketing and implementation of our products and the development of complementary products in order to deliver comprehensive service management solutions, and our efforts may not be as effective as those who have such alliances. In many cases, the firms with which we wish to form alliances have extensive relationships with our existing and potential customers and may influence the decisions of these customers by recommending products. If we fail to establish, successfully implement or maintain these alliances, our ability to achieve market acceptance of our service management software will suffer and our business and operating results will be harmed.

 

We have experienced significant growth in our business in the past and we may not be able to manage our future growth efficiently or profitably.

 

We have expanded the scope of our operations at a rapid rate in the past. For example, in January 2003, we acquired BroadJump, Inc., a provider of broadband Internet activation and support solutions. Primarily as a result of the BroadJump acquisition, the number of people we employ has grown from 240 employees as of December 31, 2002 to 374 employees as of December 31, 2003. Future expansion efforts could be expensive and may strain our managerial and other resources. To manage future growth effectively, we must maintain and enhance our financial and accounting systems and controls, integrate new personnel and manage expanded operations. If we do not manage growth properly, it could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

We may find it difficult to integrate potential future business combinations, which could disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results.

 

From inception to date, we have completed three acquisitions of other companies and businesses. We may acquire other companies and businesses in the future, which could add substantial complexity and additional burdens to the substantial tasks already performed by our management team. We may need to integrate operations that have different and unfamiliar corporate cultures. Likewise, we may need to integrate disparate technologies and product offerings, as well as multiple direct and indirect sales channels. These integration efforts may not succeed or may distract our management’s attention from existing business operations. Our failure to successfully manage and integrate future acquisitions could seriously harm our business.

 

In addition, our existing stockholders’ ownership would be diluted if we financed our acquisitions by issuing equity securities. Under the purchase method of accounting, now required under generally accepted accounting principles for all acquisitions, we could be required to incur in-process research and development or other charges in connection with future acquisitions, which would adversely affect our operating results.

The service management software and services industry is highly competitive, the market for our products is subject to rapid change and we may not be able to compete effectively.

 

The market for our products is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. Although we do not currently compete against any one entity with respect to all aspects of our software solutions, our solutions compete against various vendors’ software products designed to accomplish specific elements of functionality. Moreover, these vendors may broaden their product portfolios to more directly compete against our products.

 

Our current and potential competitors may have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical and other resources or greater name recognition than we do. Our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Competitive pressures could reduce our market share or require us to reduce the price of our products, either of which could harm our business and operating results. For more information on our competitors, please read “Business – Competition.”

 

If our products fail to perform properly due to undetected errors or similar problems, our business could suffer because, among other things, we might have to limit or suspend product shipments, we might have to expand resources providing enhancements to correct such errors and we may experience other adverse consequences described below.

 

Our software products are complex and have been more recently developed than those of more established enterprise software vendors. Software such as ours often contains undetected errors or “bugs.” Such errors are frequently found during the period immediately following introduction of new software or enhancements to existing software. We continually introduce new products. If we detect any errors before we ship a product, we might have to limit or suspend product shipments for an extended period of time while we address the problem. We may not discover software errors that affect our new or current products or enhancements until after they are deployed and we may need to provide enhancements to correct such errors. Therefore, it is possible that, despite testing by us, errors may occur in our software. These errors could result in:

 

  ·   damage to our reputation;

 

  ·   lost sales;

 

  ·   delays in commercial release;

 

  ·   product liability claims;

 

  ·   delays in or loss of market acceptance of our products;

 

  ·   license terminations or renegotiations; and

 

  ·   unexpected expenses and diversion of resources to remedy errors.

 

Furthermore, our customers may use our software together with products from other companies. As a result, when problems occur, it may be difficult to identify the source of the problem. Even when these problems are not caused by our software, they may cause us to incur significant costs, divert the attention of our engineering personnel from our product development efforts, impact our reputation and cause significant customer relations problems.

 

Our failure to integrate third-party technologies could harm our business because we may incur increased costs and experience delays procuring or building replacement technologies.

 

We do not own all of the technology that is used in our business and that is incorporated into our products. Accordingly, we intend to continue licensing technologies from third parties, including applications used in our research and development activities and technologies which are integrated into our products. These technologies may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Our inability to obtain any of

 

11


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

these licenses could delay product development until equivalent technology can be identified, licensed and integrated. This inability in turn would harm our business and operating results. For example, we license security and encryption technology from RSA Security. The RSA agreement continues indefinitely unless terminated in the event of a material default by either party or insolvency, or unless we terminate for convenience on 90-days’ written notice. Our use of third-party technologies exposes us to increased risks, including, but not limited to, risks associated with the integration of new technology into our products, the diversion of our resources from development of our own proprietary technology and our inability to generate revenue from licensed technology sufficient to offset associated acquisition and maintenance costs.

 

If the system security of our software is breached, our business and reputation could suffer.

 

A fundamental and unique requirement for effective use of many of our products is the secure transmission, collection and storage of confidential end user information. Third parties may attempt to breach our security or that of our customers. We may be liable to our customers for any breach in such security and any breach could harm our customers, our business and our reputation. In addition, our software contains features which may allow us or our customers to control, monitor or collect data from computers running the software. Therefore, we may be subject to claims associated with invasion of privacy or inappropriate disclosure, use or loss of this information. Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage, could harm our reputation and our business and operating results. Also, computers, including those that utilize our software, are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays or loss of data. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to further protect against security breaches or to rectify problems caused by any security breach.

 

We rely upon patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets to protect our proprietary rights, which may provide us with inadequate protection.

 

Our success and ability to compete depend to a significant degree upon the protection of our software and other proprietary technology rights. We may not be successful in protecting our proprietary technology, and our proprietary rights may not provide us with a meaningful competitive advantage. To protect our proprietary technology, we rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and disclosure agreements, each of which affords only limited protection. Any inability to protect our intellectual property rights could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. It is possible that:

 

  ·   our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of patents;

 

  ·   any patents issued to us may not be broad enough to protect our proprietary rights;

 

  ·   any issued patent could be successfully challenged by one or more third parties, which could result in our loss of the right to prevent others from exploiting the inventions claimed in those patents; and

 

  ·   current and future competitors may independently develop similar technologies, duplicate our products or design around any of our patents.

 

In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights in our products to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S. Despite the measures taken by us, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary technology and information without authorization. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights. Any litigation could be time consuming and expensive to prosecute or resolve, result in substantial diversion of management attention and resources, and materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Claims that we infringe upon third parties’ intellectual property rights could be costly to defend or settle, thus adversely affecting our operating results.

 

Litigation regarding intellectual property rights is common in the software industry. We expect that software products and services may be increasingly subject to third-party infringement claims as the number of competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. We may from time to time encounter disputes over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property. Although we believe that our intellectual property rights are sufficient to allow us to market our software without incurring liability to third parties, third parties may bring claims of infringement against us. Such claims may be with or without merit. Any litigation to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Furthermore, a party making such a claim could secure a judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages. A judgment could also include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from selling our software. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed if any of these events occurred.

 

In addition, we have agreed, and will likely agree in the future, to indemnify certain of our customers against certain claims that our software infringes upon the intellectual property rights of others. We could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves and our customers against infringement claims. In the event of a claim of infringement, we and our customers may be required to obtain one or more licenses from third parties. We, or our customers, may be unable to obtain necessary licenses from third parties at a reasonable cost, if at all. Defense of any lawsuit or failure to obtain any such required licenses could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

If we become subject to product liability claims, they could be time consuming and costly to defend, thus adversely affecting our operating results.

 

Errors, defects or other performance problems in our software could result in financial or other damages to our customers. They could seek damages from us for losses associated with these errors, defects or other performance problems. If successful, these claims could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. Although we possess product liability insurance and errors and omissions insurance, there is no guarantee that our insurance would be enough to cover the full amount of any loss we might suffer. Our license agreements typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to product liability claims, but existing or future laws or unfavorable judicial decisions could negate these limitation of liability provisions. We have not experienced any product liability claims to date. However, a product liability claim brought against us, even if unsuccessful, could be time consuming and costly to defend and could harm our reputation.

 

Risks Relating To This Offering

 

There has been no prior market for our common stock, our stock price may be volatile, and after the offering you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the offering price.

 

Prior to this offering, our common stock has not been publicly traded, and an active trading market may not develop or be sustained after this offering. You may not be able to sell your shares at or above the offering price, which has been determined by negotiations between representatives of the underwriters and us. The price at which our common stock will trade after this offering is likely to be highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially due to factors such as the following:

 

  ·   actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

 

  ·   changes in or our failure to meet securities analysts’ expectations;

 

  ·   announcements of technological innovations;

 

  ·   entry of new competitors into our markets;

 

  ·   introduction of new products and services by us or our competitors;

 

13


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
  ·   significant developments with respect to intellectual property rights;

 

  ·   additions or departures of key personnel;

 

  ·   conditions and trends in the communications and high technology markets;

 

  ·   volatility in stock market prices and volumes, which is particularly common among securities of software and technology companies;

 

  ·   general stock market conditions; and

 

  ·   the general state of the U.S. and world economies.

 

After this offering, our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders will continue to have substantial control over matters requiring stockholder approval and may not vote in the same manner as our other stockholders.

 

Following this offering, it is anticipated that our executive officers, directors and their affiliates will beneficially own or control approximately 36.7% of our common stock. Together with other persons or entities owning 5% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock, this group will control 12,638,284 shares of common stock, or approximately 50.2% of the outstanding shares of our stock. As a result, if such persons act together, they will have the ability to control all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors and the approval of any merger, consolidation or sales of all or substantially all of our assets. These stockholders may make decisions that are adverse to your interests. See our discussion under the caption “Principal Stockholders” for more information about ownership of our outstanding shares.

 

A substantial portion of our outstanding shares, other than the shares sold in this offering, will be restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market beginning 180 days after this offering. Any future sales of our common stock may depress our stock price.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock into the public market after the offering, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect our stock price or could impair our ability to obtain capital through an offering of equity securities. After the offering, we will have outstanding 25,155,448 shares of common stock, assuming no options are exercised after March 31, 2004. The 5,000,000 shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, except for any shares purchased by our “affiliates” as that term is defined by Rule 144. Based upon the number of shares outstanding as of March 31, 2004, an aggregate of approximately 16,254,799 shares of our common stock will be eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 701 beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus and an aggregate of approximately 3,830,473 shares of our common stock will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933 upon completion of this offering. However, all but 279,070 of such shares are subject to lock-up agreements and will only become eligible for sale upon the expiration or termination of such agreements, generally 180 days after the date of this prospectus. You should read “Shares Eligible For Future Sale” for a more complete discussion of these matters.

 

As a new investor, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the value of the common stock.

 

The initial public offering price of our common stock will be substantially higher than the book value per share of the outstanding common stock. As a result, investors purchasing common stock in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $9.20 per share, assuming that we sell 5,000,000 shares at an initial public offering price of $12.00 per share.

 

We may need additional capital, and raising additional capital may dilute existing stockholders.

 

We believe that our existing capital resources, including the anticipated proceeds of this offering, will enable us to maintain our current and planned operations for at least the next 12 months. However, we may

 

14


Table of Contents

choose to, or be required to, raise additional funds due to unforeseen circumstances. If our capital requirements vary materially from those currently planned, we may require additional financing sooner than anticipated. This financing may not be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us and may be dilutive to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our future growth, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance services or products, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited.

 

Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware corporate law contain provisions which could delay or prevent a change in control even if the change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders.

 

Delaware law as well as our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of our company, even if it were beneficial to our stockholders to do so. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. These provisions:

 

  ·   authorize the issuance of preferred stock that can be created and issued by the board of directors without prior stockholder approval to increase the number of outstanding shares and deter or prevent a takeover attempt;

 

  ·   prohibit stockholder action by written consent, thereby requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders;

 

  ·   prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates;

 

  ·   provide that our board of directors is divided into three classes, each serving three-year terms;

 

  ·   preclude the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders; and

 

  ·   establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings.

 

In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law imposes restrictions on business combinations such as mergers between us and a holder of 15% or more or our voting stock. See “Description of Capital Stock—Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.”

 

Our term loans and our line of credit are secured by substantially all of our assets, and in the event of our bankruptcy or liquidation, our assets will first be used to satisfy our secured indebtedness.

 

Our term loans and our $15 million line of credit are secured by substantially all of our assets, including our intellectual property. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or other winding up, our assets that collateralize this secured indebtedness would first be used to satisfy amounts outstanding under our term loans and our line of credit before they would be available to satisfy our other obligations or to be distributed to holders of our capital stock following satisfaction of all of our outstanding indebtedness.

 

We have substantial discretion as to how to use the offering proceeds, and the investment of these proceeds may not yield a favorable return.

 

Our management will have flexibility in deploying the net proceeds of this offering. The net proceeds could be used in ways that do not increase our operating results or market share. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether proceeds are being used appropriately. The proceeds may be invested in ways that do not yield favorable returns.

These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among other things, those listed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

Our net proceeds from the sale of the 5,000,000 shares of common stock in this offering are estimated to be $54.3 million, assuming an initial public offering price of $12.00 per share and after deducting estimated offering expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions. We intend to use approximately $12.5 million of the net proceeds of the offering to repay senior secured promissory notes issued in October 2002 to certain of our stockholders, which bear interest at the rate of 11% per annum and would otherwise be payable in full on October 11, 2007. These stockholders include Austin Ventures VII, L.P. who, together with its affiliated funds, owned approximately 19.2% of our outstanding shares as of March 31, 2004, and Eric L. Jones, one of our directors.

 

We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and research and development with respect to developing new and improving our existing product and service offerings. In addition, if the appropriate opportunities arise for the acquisition of assets and businesses that are complementary to ours, for example, complementary product lines, products or technologies, we may use a portion of the net proceeds for such an acquisition. However, we have no current plans, agreements or commitments and are not currently engaged in any negotiations with respect to any such transaction. Pending such uses, we will invest the net proceeds of this offering in investment grade, interest-bearing securities.

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock, and we currently do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock. We currently expect to retain any future earnings to fund the operation and expansion of our business. Our line of credit with Comerica Bank prohibits us from declaring or paying dividends without Comerica’s consent.

DILUTION

 

The pro forma net tangible book value of our common stock as of March 31, 2004, giving effect to the conversion of all shares of preferred stock outstanding as of March 31, 2004 into common stock on the closing of this offering, was $17.8 million, or approximately $0.88 per share. Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our stockholders’ equity less intangible assets, divided by 20,155,448 shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the conversion of our preferred stock into common stock.

 

Net tangible book value dilution per share to new investors represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of common stock in this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after completion of this offering. After giving effect to the sale by us of 5,000,000 shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial offering price of $12.00 per share and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses and the application of the estimated net proceeds from this offering, our pro forma net tangible book value as of March 31, 2004 would have been $70.5 million, or $2.80 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $1.92 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $9.20 per share to purchasers of common stock in this offering. The following table illustrates the per share dilution:

 

Assumed initial public offering price per share

              $ 12.00

Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2004

     $ 0.88

                2.80

              $ 9.20
               

 

The following table sets forth on a pro forma basis as of March 31, 2004, after giving effect to the difference between the number of shares of common stock purchased from us, the total consideration paid to us and the average price paid by existing stockholders and by new investors, before deduction of estimated discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us:

    Total Consideration

     Number

   Percent

    Amount

   Percent

   
                                

Existing stockholders

   20,155,448    80.1 %   $ 139,764,000    70.0 %   $ 6.93

New investors

   5,000,000    19.9       60,000,000    30.0       12.00
    
  

 

  

     

Total

   25,155,448    100.0 %   $ 199,764,000    100 %   $ 7.94
    
  

 

  

     

 

Assuming the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full, the percentage of shares held by existing stockholders will decrease to 77.8% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding after this offering and the number of shares held by new investors will increase to 22.2%.

 

As of March 31, 2004, there were options outstanding to purchase a total of 3,439,746 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $5.53 per share and warrants outstanding to purchase a total of 711,439 shares of capital stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.28 per share. If all of these options and warrants are exercised, the percentage of shares sold by us in this offering compared to the total number of shares outstanding would decrease from 19.9% to 17.1% and the percentage of consideration paid by investors to us in this offering compared to the total consideration paid by all investors would decrease from 30.0% to 27.0%.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Selected Financial Data” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those discussed in “Risk Factors.” Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We are a leading provider of service management software that enables companies to build management and service directly into their customer-facing products and services, optimizing time and reducing waste from labor-intensive management processes. Our revenue has increased from $1.4 million in 1998 to $92.3 million in 2003.

 

From our incorporation in April 1997, we have developed and successfully deployed our service management software solutions to industry-leading technology vendors, service providers and large enterprises. We estimate that these customers have used our software in connection with more than 30 million technology products and devices. We have continued to enhance the functionality of our products, and our current service management product suite includes products in the service operations management, self management and policy management categories.

 

Our future success will depend on many factors, including but not limited to:

 

  ·   the measurable benefits that our products provide to our customers, such as allowing them to execute rapid and profitable change, optimizing management processes across company boundaries, increasing productivity, optimizing asset utilization, and creating new sources of revenue;

 

  ·   our service management software being built directly into the technology products and services of our customers; and

 

  ·   our flexible term or usage-based licensing model.

 

In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, our management team and our board of directors focus on a wide variety of information and performance metrics, including, among others, the following:

 

  ·   the level of revenue generated from sales of our software products to existing and new customers;

 

  ·   the mix of revenue generated from license fees and services fees;

 

  ·   the mix of revenue generated within the U.S. and outside the U.S.;

 

  ·   the extent to which customers license our products under term as opposed to perpetual licenses;

 

  ·   our ability to manage our cost structure such that it supports our revenue generation efforts while optimizing profitability; and

 

  ·   our employee headcount numbers, both in terms of function within the company and in terms of geographic dispersal, which numbers are directly reflective of our cost structure.

 

The principal operational challenge that we face is the fact that our quarterly revenue and results of operations are difficult to predict. Unlike more established software vendors, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, fluctuations in revenue and operating results from quarter to quarter. Weak capital

spending and competitive pressures may challenge our future financial performance. Additionally, we typically derive a significant portion of our revenue each quarter from a number of license agreements closed in the last month of a quarter. If we fail to close certain agreements that are expected to be completed toward the end of a quarter, our quarterly results would suffer.

 

To address these challenges, we intend to continue to invest to enhance our current products and services and to develop new products and services. We also intend to increase our services, sales and development resources, and to invest in the expansion of our international operations, which represented 32% of our revenue in 2003. We may seek to accomplish these expansions by acquiring businesses that possess products, technology, or operations that are complementary to ours.

 

Another operational challenge that we face is the fact that our operating expenses are, to a large extent, fixed in the short term. If our revenue falls below our expectation in a quarter and we are not able to greatly reduce our operating expenses in response, our operating results for that quarter could be adversely affected. To address this challenge, we attempt to closely monitor our cost structure and operating expense trends, as well as to closely monitor our sales pipeline and related sales activities.

 

In addition, our ability to compete effectively will depend on the timely introduction and success of future software products and releases and the ability of our products to interoperate and perform well with existing and future leading databases, applications, operating systems and other platforms. To address this challenge, we have made and will continue to make significant investments in research and development to keep pace with technological change in our industry.

 

We intend that the discussion of our financial condition and results of operations that follows to provide information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our financial statements.

 

Sources of Revenue

 

Through March 31, 2004, substantially all of our revenue was derived from licensing our product suite and providing related services. Customers pay us license fees for the right to use our products for a fixed or perpetual term. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, 70% and 78%, respectively, of the license agreements we entered into were fixed-term and 30% and 22%, respectively, were perpetual. The term of our licenses is typically three years. We price our license fees based on an expected volume of usage during the license term.

 

Our licensing arrangements may also include the provision of certain services. Services revenue is comprised of revenue from professional services, such as consulting services, maintenance and support services and hosting and managed services. Consulting services include a range of services such as installation, implementation and non-complex interface development for the customer’s specific applications. Maintenance and support services represent technical support of our software products and include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Hosting and managed services involve remote management of our solutions.

 

We experience seasonality in our revenue, with the fourth quarter of the year typically having the highest revenue for the year. We believe that this seasonality results primarily from customer budgeting cycles and our sales compensation model. We expect that this seasonality will continue.

 

In January 2003, we assumed liabilities related to existing software arrangements with a fair value of approximately $40.1 million as a result of the BroadJump acquisition. The fair value of these assumed liabilities, which was recorded as deferred revenue, relates to the remaining contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements and is being recognized ratably as services revenue acquired in business combination over the remaining life of the individual software arrangements. This revenue will continue to decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software

 

23

arrangements expire. We expect this declining services revenue stream to be partially offset by new contracts with these former BroadJump customers for use of a broader range of our products. We expect these new contracts to contain a ratio of license fees revenue to services revenue commensurate with our historical experience.

 

Excluding services revenue acquired in business combination, license fees revenue has typically represented 64% to 77% of total revenue in recent years and services revenue has typically represented 23% to 36% of total revenue in recent years.

 

Recent Acquisitions

 

In January 2000, we acquired Ventix in exchange for 1,541,333 shares of our capital stock. We acquired Ventix, a provider of Internet-based service solutions for e-business applications, to accelerate our entry into the e-business market. We accounted for the Ventix acquisition using the purchase method of accounting and Ventix has been included in our results of operations from the date of the acquisition. We recorded approximately $26.9 million in goodwill and intangibles in connection with the acquisition. Approximately $270,000 of the purchase price was allocated to acquired in-process research and development and was expensed in the first quarter of 2000 because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed.

 

In November 2001, we acquired certain assets of Question Technologies in exchange for 1,293,860 shares of our capital stock. We accounted for the acquisition of assets at fair market value on the date of closing. Approximately $3 million of the purchase price was allocated to acquired in-process research and development and was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2001 because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed.

 

In January 2003, we acquired BroadJump in exchange for 9,557,977 shares of our capital stock. We acquired BroadJump, a provider of Internet-based service solutions for broadband companies, to solidify our position as a leader in providing service management software for broadband technology ecosystems. We accounted for the BroadJump acquisition using the purchase method of accounting and BroadJump has been included in our results of operations from the date of acquisition. We recorded approximately $73.6 million in goodwill and intangibles in connection with the acquisition.

 

Peregrine Systems

 

We entered into a software license arrangement with Peregrine Systems in April 2000, as amended in October 2000, pursuant to which we granted to Peregrine the right to sublicense and distribute certain of our software in exchange for minimum license fees of $30 million. In March 2002, we amended the agreement to allow Peregrine to satisfy its payment obligations to us with either cash or Peregrine common stock.

 

We did not recognize revenue from the Peregrine license arrangement in 2000, as no amounts were due during that year. In 2001, we recognized license revenue of $10.5 million based upon nonrefundable fixed minimum license fees due during the 2001 calendar year. As of December 31, 2001 we had an accounts receivable balance of $6.0 million which was considered collectible based on Peregrine’s past payment history and general creditworthiness.

 

Pursuant to the amended license arrangement, we received 1,000,000 shares of unregistered Peregrine common stock in the first quarter of 2002. Upon receipt of the shares, we recorded a short-term investment in marketable equity securities of $9.5 million. The fair value of the shares received was determined based on the then-current trading price of the stock. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2002 we credited accounts receivable for $6.0 million and license fees revenue for $3.5 million. We recorded revenue at the time the shares were received because such amount was nonrefundable and we had performed all of our obligations under the amended agreement.

The trading price of Peregrine stock fell from $9.52 on March 31, 2002 to $0.30 on June 30, 2002. Due to the decline in market value of the Peregrine stock, in the second quarter of 2002 we deemed the Peregrine shares to be other than temporarily impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $9.5 million pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5M. In August 2002, we received $1.6 million in cash from CIBC pursuant to the termination and settlement of an agreement in connection with our attempted sale of a portion of the Peregrine shares. We recorded the receipt of such cash as a recovery of impairment on investment during the quarter ended September 30, 2002.

 

Peregrine filed for bankruptcy in September 2002. Peregrine’s plan of reorganization provided for satisfaction of Peregrine’s obligations by payments to us of cash totaling $9.0 million, and Peregrine’s return to us of 416,667 shares of our common stock that had been previously issued by us to Peregrine for a cash purchase price of $11.0 million. The cash payments totaling $9.0 million are comprised of a $4.0 million payment that was paid in August 2003 and four annual payments of $1.25 million to be made over the following four years. We recognize other income from this arrangement when cash or shares are actually received. During 2003, we recognized approximately $6.1 million in other income from this arrangement, based upon our receipt of $4.0 million in cash and the return of 416,667 shares of our common stock. The 416,667 shares of common stock were recorded at $5.00 per share or approximately $2.1 million, which was the then current fair value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

License fees revenue is comprised of fees for term and, to a lesser extent, perpetual licenses of our software. To date, we have not entered into any software arrangement solely for the license of products and, therefore, we have not demonstrated vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for the license element. We (1) recognize revenue for the fees associated with a perpetual license or a term license with VSOE for maintenance using the residual method in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract for each element, or (2) recognize revenue for the fees associated with a term license without VSOE for maintenance ratably over the term of the agreement, generally one to three years. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2001, we did not have VSOE to determine the fair value of maintenance for term licenses. As a result, license fees revenue also includes maintenance for term licenses entered into prior to the establishment of VSOE of maintenance for term licenses. License fees revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no unfulfilled vendor obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable.

 

If the fee for the license has any payment terms that are in excess of our normal payment terms, the fee is considered not to be fixed or determinable. In this scenario, the amount of revenue recognized for perpetual license arrangements and term license arrangements with VSOE for maintenance is limited to the amount currently due from the customer. In such arrangements, license fees are recognized as license fees revenue as the related amounts become due. Because each such arrangement is individually negotiated, the payment schedule and resulting revenue recognition associated with each agreement can vary. The amount of revenue recognized for term license arrangements without VSOE for maintenance is limited to the lesser of the amount due from the customer during each reporting period and a ratable portion of the total unallocated arrangement fee. In most cases, this means that both license fees and maintenance associated with the underlying arrangement are recognized as license fees revenue ratably over the term of the contract, which generally tends to defer revenue recognition over longer periods of time. To the extent that sufficient amounts are not due from the customer to cover the ratable revenue recognition for an applicable period, the amount of revenue recognized is limited to the amount currently due.

 

If an arrangement includes a right of acceptance or a right to cancel, revenue is recognized when acceptance is received or the right to cancel has expired.

License fees revenue from arrangements with resellers involving nonrefundable fixed minimum license fees are recognized when payment becomes due from the customer and delivery of the product has occurred, assuming no significant unfulfilled vendor obligations remain. Royalties related to such reseller arrangements in excess of the fixed minimum amounts are recognized as revenue when such amounts are reported to us.

 

Services revenue is comprised of revenue from professional services, such as consulting services, maintenance and support services and hosting and managed services. Consulting services include a range of services such as installation, implementation and non-complex interface development for the customer’s specific applications. Maintenance and support services represent technical support of our software products and include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Hosting and managed services involve remote management of our solutions for which we receive fees. We have determined that the service elements of our software arrangements are not essential to the functionality of the software. We have also determined that our professional services: (1) are available from other vendors; (2) do not involve a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria; and (3) qualify for separate accounting as we have sufficient experience in providing such services.

 

VSOE of fair value of services in multiple element arrangements is based upon rates for consulting and training services and fees for pre-packaged technical support and hosting and managed services which we have charged in stand-alone contracts for these services. For perpetual licensing arrangements and term licensing arrangements with VSOE for maintenance and hosting and managed services, in accordance with paragraph 57 of SOP 97-2, VSOE of fair value for maintenance and hosting and managed services is determined by reference to the price the customer has paid or will be required to pay when it is sold separately. VSOE of fair value for maintenance and hosting and managed services contracts under perpetual license arrangements and term license arrangements with VSOE for maintenance and hosting and managed services is based upon our pricing practice that maintenance and hosting and managed services renewal rates are based upon a percentage of the quoted license fees in the related contract. Each contract typically offers additional renewal periods at a stated price or rate. Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis as services revenue over the life of the related agreement, which is typically one year. Hosting and managed services revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis as services revenue over the life of the related agreement, which typically ranges from one month to one year.

 

In January 2003, we assumed liabilities related to existing software arrangements with a fair value of approximately $40.1 million as a result of the BroadJump acquisition. The fair value of these assumed liabilities, which was recorded as deferred revenue, relates to the remaining contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements and is being recognized ratably as services revenue acquired in business combination over the remaining life of each software arrangement. This revenue will continue to decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire. The following table summarizes how this revenue will be recognized in each calendar quarter of 2004 through 2006 (in millions):

 

     Quarter Ended

     Mar. 31

   June 30

   Sept. 30

2006

     0.9      0.9      0.6      0.3

 

Accounts receivable include amounts due from customers for which revenue has been recognized. Deferred revenue includes amounts received from customers for which revenue has not been recognized.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We continuously assess the collectibility of outstanding customer invoices and in doing so, we maintain an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this allowance, we consider factors such as: historical collection experience; a customer’s current credit worthiness;

 

26

customer concentration; age of the receivable balance, both individually and in the aggregate; and general economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Actual customer collections could differ from our estimates and accordingly could exceed our related loss allowance.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, in June 2001. Pursuant to SFAS No. 141, assembled workforce no longer meets the criteria to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. As a result, we have reclassified assembled workforces of $212,093, net of amortization and impairment charges, to goodwill. Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142 and no longer amortize goodwill. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, we periodically assess our intangible assets, including goodwill, for indicators of impairment.

 

Prior to January 1, 2002, intangible assets related to the Ventix acquisition were being amortized using the straight-line method over a two-year period for acquired technology and a three-year period for workforce and goodwill. The acquired technology from the Ventix acquisition was fully amortized as of March 31, 2002. In January 2003, we acquired BroadJump and recorded certain intangibles, including acquired technology, customer contractual relationships, order backlog and non-competition agreements. Amounts allocated to acquired technology, customer contractual relationships and order backlog are being amortized over the respective assets’ estimated useful lives of four to five years using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which their economic benefits are consumed based upon estimated contributions to discounted cash flows during the applicable period. Amounts allocated to non-compete agreements are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years using the straight line method. We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our identifiable intangible assets, taking into consideration any events or circumstances which might result in a diminished fair value or revised useful life.

 

We assess whether goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are impaired on an annual basis. Upon determining the existence of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles impairment, we measure that impairment based on the amount by which the book value of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles exceeds its fair value. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole, as if that reporting unit had just been acquired and the purchase price were being initially allocated. Additional impairment assessments may be performed on an interim basis if we encounter events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that, more likely than not, the book value of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles has been impaired.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for our employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. We make disclosures regarding employee stock-based compensation using the fair value method in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. We have calculated the fair value of options granted and have determined the pro forma impact on net income (loss). We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 96-18, Accounting for Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.

 

Results of Operations

 

In view of our limited operating history and changes in the general economic climate, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of revenue and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses

 

27


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

and difficulties encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Additionally, despite our revenue growth during prior periods, we do not believe that historical growth rates are necessarily sustainable or indicative of future growth.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our consolidated statements of operations as a percentage of total revenue.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 and 2004

 

Revenue

 

Total revenue increased by $2.0 million from $20.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The increase was due to a $5.1 million increase in license fees revenue and an increase in services revenue of $1.5 million, partially offset by a $4.6 million decrease in services revenue acquired as a result of the BroadJump acquisition.

 

Domestic revenue decreased by $3.4 million from $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. International revenue increased by $5.4 million from $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. International revenue represented 19% and 41% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. For more information about our international revenue and expansion plans, please see “—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

 

Our revenue recognition policy requires that we only recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no unfulfilled vendor obligations remain, the fee is fixed and determinable and collectibility is probable. If the fee for a license has payment terms that exceed our normal payment terms, the fee is not considered to be fixed or determinable and we only recognize license revenue when amounts actually become due. Therefore, the revenue contribution by a customer in any given period is dictated by the payment terms associated with such customer’s agreement. As a result, the revenue—both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenue— attributable to any particular customer in any given period can vary significantly. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition” above. Cox Communications, Inc. accounted for 15% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and no customers accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

License Fees.    Revenue from license fees increased by $5.1 million from $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $11.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 31% and 51%, respectively, of our total revenue. The increase in license fees as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was a result of license fees growing by 80% from the first quarter in 2003 to the first quarter in 2004 as well as a decrease in services revenue for this period as a result of the declining revenue from the contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition in January 2003.

 

The increase in license fees in absolute dollars was due to a $6.0 million increase in license fees revenue from existing customers from $1.6 million to $7.6 million, partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in license fees revenue from new license customers. The increase in revenue from existing customers was due to revenue recognized on contracts entered into in previous periods based on their negotiated payment terms and the application of our revenue recognition policy described above, as well as new product sales into existing customers.

 

Services.    Our revenue from services decreased by $3.1 million from $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 69% and 49%, respectively, of our total revenue. Approximately $4.6 million of the decrease was due to services revenue from contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition. This decrease was offset by a $0.9 million increase in consulting and training services and approximately $0.6 million due to the growth in the number and size of maintenance contracts. Revenue from acquired contracts was $8.0 million and $3.4 million or 39% and 15% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. This revenue will decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire (see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition”). We expect this declining services revenue stream to be partially offset by new contracts with these former BroadJump customers for use of a broader range of our products. We expect these new contracts to contain a ratio of license fees revenue to services revenue commensurate with our historical experience.

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of License Fees Revenue.    Cost of license fees revenue includes third-party software royalties, product packaging, documentation production and shipping costs related to software used by our customers. Cost of license fees revenue increased by $151,000 from $43,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $194,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 1% and 2%, respectively, of our license fees revenue. The increase in cost of license fees revenue in absolute dollars was due to the amortization of $53,000 of license fees under an agreement we entered into in June 2003 whereby we had the right to integrate certain third-party software with certain of our software for distribution through March 31, 2004. These fees were being amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement. Additionally, the increase in cost of license fees revenue was due to an increase of approximately $100,000 in third-party software royalties as a result of increased license fees revenue. We have expensed all costs incurred in the research and development of our software products as incurred, and, as a result, cost of license fees revenue includes no amortization of capitalized software development costs.

 

Amortization of Acquired Technology.    As a result of our January 2003 purchase of BroadJump, we acquired certain intangible technology assets having an estimated fair value of $9.4 million and an estimated useful life of five years. Amortization of these intangible assets in the amounts of $97,000 and $214,000 was recorded as a cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. These amounts represented less than 1% of revenue in these periods.

 

Cost of Services Revenue.    Costs of services revenue includes salaries and related expenses for our customer support, consulting, training and hosting and managed services organizations, other costs of providing services to customers, third-party contractor expenses and an allocation of our facilities, communications and depreciation expenses. Services costs increased by $0.1 million from $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 52% and 67%, respectively, of our services revenue. The increase in services costs in absolute dollars was due to an increase of $500,000 in costs as a result of servicing our growing international customer base. Also contributing to the increase was $460,000 of increased salary costs and an increase of $120,000 in third-party consulting costs. These increases were offset by a decrease of $980,000 in costs incurred in connection with servicing the remaining contractual obligations under the acquired BroadJump software arrangements. We expect cost of services revenue to increase as a percentage of our services revenue as services revenue from contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition continues to decline. Excluding the costs and revenue associated with the acquired BroadJump software arrangements, costs of services represented 59% and 62% of services revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses consist of salaries and related costs of our sales and marketing organizations, sales commissions, travel and entertainment expenses, costs of our marketing programs, including public relations, and collateral materials, and rent and facilities costs associated with our regional sales offices. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $0.5 million from $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 35% and 33%, respectively, of our total revenue. The increase in absolute dollars was due to an increase of $70,000 in sales commissions due to the growth in revenue, an increase of $220,000 as a result of an increase in the number of regional offices and the expansion of existing international sales offices, and an increase of $230,000 in salary costs.

 

Research and Development.    Research and development expenses consist of employee salaries, benefits, consulting costs and the cost of software development tools and expenses associated with the development of new products, enhancements of existing products and quality assurance activities. Research and development expenses increased by $0.6 million from $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 18% and 19%, respectively, of our total revenue. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to an increase of $260,000 in third-party consulting costs and approximately $280,000 in increased salary costs.

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and related costs of our administrative, finance, business operations and information technology personnel as well as legal and accounting services and costs associated with our recruiting programs. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.3 million from $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, representing 9% and 10%, respectively, of our total revenue. The increase in absolute dollars was due to an increase of $400,000 in legal and professional costs, partially offset by a decrease in salary expenses resulting from a reduction of two personnel in the general and administrative organizations.

 

Amortization of Goodwill and Intangibles.    Total amortization expense, including the write-off of acquired in-process research and development, was $476,000 and $773,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively, representing 2% and 3%, respectively, of our total revenue. In January 2003, we recorded $13.0 million of definite-lived intangibles in connection with the BroadJump acquisition, which resulted in increased amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation.    Deferred stock compensation represents the difference between the exercise price of certain stock option grants and the deemed fair value of our common stock at the time of such grants. We are amortizing these amounts over the vesting periods of the applicable options, resulting in amortization expense of $166,000 and $851,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. The increase in amortization was related to the grant of in-the-money options in the fourth quarter of 2003 and first quarter of 2004, which is being amortized over the vesting term of the options.

 

Business Restructuring Charge.    During the first quarter of 2003, we initiated a restructuring program as a result of our integration of BroadJump. We incurred a non-recurring charge of approximately $1.4 million related to severance and other employee termination benefits related to a reduction in workforce of approximately 25 employees in January 2003 as well as costs associated with the closing of duplicative facilities and the elimination of other overlapping efforts. As of March 31, 2004, all termination benefits related to the restructuring had been paid.

 

Interest Income (Expense), Net

 

Interest income (expense), net decreased from $(490,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $(510,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The decrease in interest income (expense), net during these periods was due to decreased interest rates on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balances.

 

Other Income

 

Other income increased from $57,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $472,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 due to gains on foreign currency related to fluctuations in the exchange rates.

 

Provision for Income Taxes and Net Operating Losses

 

We have incurred operating losses for all fiscal years from inception through December 31, 2003, and therefore have not recorded a material provision for income taxes. Our provision for income taxes consists primarily of foreign income tax withholdings related to international sales. We have recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of our net deferred tax assets, which include net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards, because of the uncertainty regarding their realization.

 

Comparison of the Fiscal Years Ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003

 

Revenue

 

Total revenue increased by $6.1 million from $52.0 million in 2001 to $58.1 million in 2002 and by $34.2 million in 2003 to $92.3 million. The increase in 2002 was due to an increase in license fees revenue of

$5.3 million and an increase in services revenue of $0.8 million. The increase in 2003 was due to $24.9 million of services revenue acquired as a result of the BroadJump acquisition and an increase of $11.0 million of other services revenue, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in license fees revenue.

 

Domestic revenue decreased by $8.0 million from $50.5 million in 2001 to $42.5 million in 2002 and increased by $20.3 million in 2003 to $62.8 million. International revenue increased by $14.1 million from $1.5 million in 2001 to $15.6 million in 2002 and by $13.9 million in 2003 to $29.5 million. International revenue represented 3%, 27% and 32% of our total revenue for 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. For more information about our international revenue and expansion plans, please see “—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

 

As noted in our discussion of our revenue recognition accounting policy, we did not have VSOE of fair value for maintenance for term licenses prior to the fourth quarter of 2001. Prior to establishing such VSOE, the entire license and maintenance value of term licenses was classified as license fees revenue and was recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. For all agreements executed after the establishment of VSOE of maintenance, we allocate VSOE of fair value for maintenance to services revenue and recognize it ratably over the term of the agreement. We then utilize the residual value method to calculate the license fees revenue, which is recognized as license fees revenue as payments become due. The establishment of VSOE of fair value for maintenance for term licenses resulted in an increase in total revenue recognized in 2001 and 2002 of $3.6 million and $9.9 million, respectively. This increase in revenue is attributable to the requirement that, once VSOE was established, we recognize license fees revenue as the amounts become due as opposed to ratably over the term of the underlying agreement. For term licenses entered into after the establishment of VSOE for maintenance, license revenue is typically greater at the beginning of a contractual term because most amounts typically come due in the earlier periods of the contractual term. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition” above.

 

Our revenue recognition policy requires that we only recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no unfulfilled vendor obligations remain, the fee is fixed and determinable and collectibility is probable. If the fee for a license has payment terms that exceed our normal payment terms, the fee is not considered to be fixed or determinable and we only recognize license revenue when amounts actually become due. Therefore, the revenue contribution by a customer in any given period is dictated by the payment terms associated with such customer’s agreement. As a result, the revenue—both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenue —attributable to any particular customer in any given period can vary significantly. Revenue from individual customers constituting 10% or more of total revenue for each period were as follows:

 

     2001

    2002

    2003

 

Hewlett-Packard

   18 %   19 %   2 %

Mercury Interactive

   0 %   0 %   11 %

Peregrine Systems

   21 %   6 %   0 %

 

Although we had no revenue contribution in 2003 from Peregrine Systems, we received proceeds from Peregrine of $6.1 million in settlement of license fee obligations in the third quarter of 2003, which we recorded as “other income” – see “—Overview—Peregrine Systems.”

 

License Fees.    Revenue from license fees increased by approximately $5.3 million from $39.4 million in 2001 to $44.7 million in 2002, and decreased by $1.7 million in 2003 to $43.0 million. Had we not established VSOE of fair value for maintenance for term licenses during the fourth quarter of 2001, revenue from license fees would have been $35.9 million and $35.8 million in 2001 and 2002, respectively. As noted above, our establishment of VSOE for maintenance had the effect of increasing our license fees revenue in 2001 and 2002 as we were required to recognize such revenue as amounts came due under our term licenses rather than ratably over the term of such licenses. License fees revenue represented 76%, 77% and 47% of our total revenue for

2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. License fees declined as a percentage of total revenue in 2003 primarily because of the significant increase in services revenue as a result of the BroadJump acquisition.

 

The increase in license fees revenue from 2001 to 2002 was due to an $8.9 million increase in license fees revenue from new license customers from $12.5 million to $21.4 million, partially offset by a $3.6 million decrease in license fees revenue from existing customers from $26.9 million to $23.3 million. The increase in license fees revenue from new license customers was due to increased acceptance of our products in international markets. Approximately $11.5 million of license fees revenue from new license customers in 2002 was attributable to international sales. The decrease in license fees revenue from existing customers was attributable to the fact that we ceased recognizing revenue from our agreements with Peregrine Systems after the first quarter of 2002 due to collectibility concerns. See “—Overview—Peregrine Systems.”

 

The decrease in license fees from 2002 to 2003 was due to a $8.0 million decrease in license fees revenue from existing customers from $23.3 million to $15.3 million, partially offset by a $6.3 million increase in license fees revenue from new license customers from $21.4 million to $27.7 million. Approximately $6.0 million of the decrease in license fees revenue from existing customers in 2003 was attributable to the reduction in revenue recognized from a license agreement previously entered into with Hewlett-Packard due to the fact that the payment terms under that license agreement provided for substantial payments in 2002 and relatively minor payments in 2003. Under our revenue recognition policy described above for payment terms that exceed our normal payment terms, license revenue attributable to this agreement is recognized when amounts actually become due. License fees revenue from new license customers was primarily generated from increased acceptance of our products, as evidenced by the 19 new customers that executed license agreements during 2003. Approximately $9.9 million of license fees revenue from new license customers in 2003 was attributable to international sales.

 

Services.    Our revenue from services increased by $0.8 million from $12.6 million in 2001 to $13.4 million in 2002 and by $35.9 million in 2003 to $49.3 million. Services revenue represented 24%, 23% and 53% of our total revenue in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

 

As noted above, we established VSOE of fair value for maintenance on term licenses during the fourth quarter of 2001, which required maintenance associated with term licenses to be classified as services revenue as opposed to license fees revenue. The result was a $1.0 million increase in services revenue from 2001 to 2002. Services revenue increased an additional $0.3 million over this period due to growth in the number and size of maintenance contracts. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $0.5 million in revenue from consulting and training services.

 

Approximately $24.9 million of the increase in services revenue in 2003 was due to services revenue from contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition. The remainder of the increase was due to an increase of approximately $4.5 million in consulting and training services, approximately $3.7 million due to the growth in the number and size of maintenance contracts, and approximately $2.8 million due to revenue from our hosting and managed service business which was introduced during 2003.

 

Service revenue acquired in business combinations was 27% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003. This revenue will decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire (see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition”). We expect this declining services revenue stream will be partially offset by new contracts with these former BroadJump customers for use of a broader range of our products. We expect these new contracts to contain a ratio of license fees revenue and services revenue commensurate with our historical experience.

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of License Fees Revenue.     Cost of license fees revenue increased by $523,000 from $689,000 in 2001 to $1.2 million in 2002 and by $787,000 in 2003 to $2.0 million, representing 2%, 3% and 5% of license fees revenue for 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. The increase in cost of license fees revenue in 2003 was primarily due to royalties paid for our right to integrate and distribute certain third-party software to several of our customers. We expect that cost of license fees will decrease as a percentage of license fees revenue for 2004. We have expensed all costs as they have been incurred in the research and development of our software products and, as a result, cost of license fees revenue includes no amortization of capitalized software development costs.

 

Amortization of Acquired Technology.    As a part of our January 2000 purchase of Ventix, we acquired certain intangible technology assets having an estimated fair value of $300,000 and an estimated useful life of two years. The amortization of these intangible assets is recorded as a cost of revenue of $150,000 and $13,000 in 2001 and 2002, respectively. Each of these amounts represented less than 1% of revenue in their respective years. The intangible asset was fully amortized by March 31, 2002. As a result of our January 2003 purchase of BroadJump, we acquired certain intangible technology assets having an estimated fair value of $9.4 million and an estimated useful life of five years. Amortization of these intangible assets in the amount of $448,000 is recorded as a cost of revenue in 2003. This amount represented less than 1% of revenue in 2003.

 

Cost of Services Revenue.     Services costs decreased by $1.9 million from $14.2 million in 2001 to $12.3 million in 2002 and increased by $18.5 million in 2003 to $30.8 million, representing 113%, 91% and 62% of services revenue in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in 2002 was due to a decrease of $1.0 million in third-party consulting expense as well as a decrease in average services personnel from 75 in 2001 to 65 in 2002 due to the business restructuring that took place in October 2001. See further discussion in “Business Restructuring Charge” below. The majority of the increase in services costs in absolute dollars in 2003 was due to approximately $14.1 million of costs incurred in connection with servicing the remaining contractual obligations under the acquired BroadJump software arrangements. These costs consist of employee salaries and the related benefits and overhead for those individuals servicing the BroadJump software arrangements as well as the amortization of prepaid commissions and royalties associated with the services revenue acquired in the BroadJump acquisition. Expansion of our professional services organization to support the increase in our services revenue and the addition of the BroadJump hosting and managed services organization contributed an additional $3.7 million to this increase as did $700,000 in increased third party consulting costs. Excluding the costs and revenue associated with the acquired BroadJump software arrangements, costs of services represented 68% of services revenue in 2003. We expect cost of services revenue to increase as a percentage of our services revenue as services revenue from contracts acquired in the BroadJump acquisition continues to decline.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $5.4 million from $31.5 million in 2001 to $26.1 million in 2002 and increased by $6.9 million in 2003 to $33.0 million, representing 60%, 45% and 36% of total revenue for 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in 2002 was due to a $1.5 million decrease in marketing programs, a decrease in average sales and marketing personnel from 105 in 2001 to 80 in 2002 due to the business restructuring that took place in October 2001, as well as a $1.0 million decrease in sales commissions due to a change in our incentive plan structure. The increase in absolute dollars in 2003 was due to growth in our sales and marketing organization from 74 at December 31, 2002 to 84 at December 31, 2003, a $3.1 million increase in sales commissions due to the growth in revenue, and to a lesser extent by an increase of approximately $200,000 in marketing program expenses during the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease in sales and marketing as a percentage of total revenue was due primarily to our revenue growth and efficiencies gained as a result of the BroadJump acquisition, such as the elimination of duplication in sales management and marketing functions.

 

Research and Development.    Research and development expenses decreased by $1.7 million from $12.9 million in 2001 to $11.2 million in 2002 and increased by $5.7 million in 2003 to $16.9 million, representing 25%, 19% and 18% of total revenue for 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in 2002

 

34


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

was due to a decrease in average research and development personnel from 84 in 2001 to 69 in 2002 due to the business restructuring that took place in October 2001. The increase in absolute dollars in 2003 was attributable to costs of additional personnel in the research and development organization as headcount increased significantly from 66 at December 31, 2002 to 105 at December 31, 2003 driven mainly by the BroadJump acquisition.

 

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.4 million from $6.7 million in 2001 to $6.3 million in 2002 and increased by $1.7 million in 2003 to $8.0 million, representing 13%, 11% and 9% of total revenue in each of the respective periods. The decrease in 2002 was due to a decrease in average personnel in the administrative organization from 45 in 2001 to 31 in 2002, which was partially offset by an increase of $800,000 in legal and professional fees. The increase in absolute dollars in 2003 was due to an increase of 9 employees in the general and administrative organizations necessary to support the expansion in our operations.

 

Amortization of Goodwill and Intangibles.    In January 2000, we acquired Ventix in exchange for 1,541,333 shares of our capital stock. We accounted for the Ventix acquisition using the purchase method of accounting and Ventix has been included in our results of operations from the date of acquisition. We recorded approximately $26.3 million in goodwill and intangibles in connection with the acquisition. In October 2001, in connection with a corporate restructuring and employee terminations as discussed below, the long-lived asset related to the workforce acquired in the Ventix acquisition was deemed to be impaired. Therefore, this asset was written down to its fair value. As a result, an impairment loss of approximately $452,000 was included in amortization of goodwill and other intangibles for the year ended December 31, 2001. Additionally, in November 2001, we acquired certain assets of Question Technologies in exchange for 1,293,860 shares of our capital stock. We accounted for the acquisition of assets at fair market value on the date of closing. Approximately $3 million of the purchase price was allocated to acquired in-process research and development and was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2001 because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. Therefore, total amortization expense, including the write-off of acquired in-process research and development and impairment charges, for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $12.2 million, representing 24% of our total revenue for the respective period. In January 2003, we recorded $13.0 million of definite-lived intangibles in connection with the BroadJump acquisition, which resulted in amortization expense of $2.4 million for 2003, representing 3% of our total revenue for the respective period.

 

Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation.    We recorded deferred stock compensation in connection with stock options granted to employees and consultants. These amounts represent the difference between the exercise price of certain stock option grants and the deemed fair value of our common stock at the time of such grants. We are amortizing these amounts over the vesting periods of the applicable options, resulting in amortization expense of $2.3 million in 2001, $2.1 million in 2002 and $1.2 million in 2003.

 

Write-Off of Prepaid Stock Offering Costs.    In March 2001, we withdrew our Form S-1 Registration Statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission due to weak equity market conditions. As a result, $1.4 million of prepaid stock offering costs were written off in March 2001. These costs consisted of legal, accounting and printing fees incurred in connection with the drafting, review and filing of the Form S-1.

 

Business Restructuring Charge.    During the fourth quarter of 2001, we initiated a restructuring program to conform our expense and revenue levels to better position us for growth and profitability in the marketplace. We incurred a non-recurring charge of approximately $1.4 million related to severance and other employee termination benefits related to a reduction in workforce in October 2001 as a result of this restructuring. The reduction in workforce consisted of approximately 85 employees at all levels within the organization. During the first quarter of 2003, we initiated a restructuring program as a result of our integration of BroadJump. We incurred a non-recurring charge of approximately $1.4 million related to severance and other employee termination benefits related to a reduction in workforce of approximately 25 employees in January 2003 as well as costs associated with the closing of duplicative facilities and the elimination of other overlapping efforts. As of December 31, 2003, all termination benefits related to the restructuring had been paid.

Interest Income (Expense), Net

 

Interest income (expense), net decreased from $230,000 in 2001 to $(1.2) million in 2002 and by $700,000 to $(1.9) million in 2003. The decrease in interest income (expense), net from 2001 to 2002 was primarily due to the increased interest expense incurred on our outstanding bank debt, which rose from $6.7 million at December 31, 2001 to $15.2 million at December 31, 2002, and interest expense on related party subordinated debt of $12.5 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease in interest income (expense), net from 2002 to 2003 was due to the increased interest expense incurred on the outstanding subordinated debt as it was outstanding for a full year in 2003 compared to only a quarter in 2002.

 

Other Income

 

In connection with Peregrine’s plan of reorganization in the third quarter of 2003, we recognized approximately $6.1 million in other income based upon our receipt of $4.0 million in cash and the return of 416,667 shares of our common stock. The 416,667 shares of common stock were recorded at $5.00 per share or approximately $2.1 million, which was the then current fair value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors.

 

Loss on Investment

 

In connection with a software license arrangement between us and Peregrine Systems, we received 1,000,000 shares of unregistered Peregrine common stock in the first quarter of 2002 in satisfaction of certain accounts receivable. Upon receipt of the shares, they were classified as a short-term investment in marketable equity securities. The trading price of Peregrine stock fell from $9.52 on March 31, 2002 to $0.30 on June 30, 2002. Due to the decline in value of the Peregrine stock, in the second quarter of 2002 we deemed the Peregrine shares to be other than temporarily impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $9.5 million. In August 2002, we received $1.6 million in cash from CIBC pursuant to the termination and settlement of an agreement in connection with the attempted sale of a portion of the Peregrine shares. We recorded the receipt of such cash as a recovery of impairment on investment.

 

Provision for Income Taxes and Net Operating Losses

 

We have incurred operating losses for all fiscal years from inception through December 31, 2003, and therefore have not recorded a material provision for income taxes. Our provision for income taxes consists primarily of foreign income tax withholdings related to international sales. We have recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of our net deferred tax assets, which include net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards, because of the uncertainty regarding their realization. Our accounting for deferred taxes under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” involves the evaluation of a number of factors concerning the realizability of our deferred tax assets. In concluding that a full valuation allowance was required, management primarily considered such factors as our history of operating losses and expected future losses and the nature of our deferred tax assets.

 

As of December 31, 2003, we had net operating loss, research and development credit and foreign tax credit carryforwards of approximately $88.5 million, $2.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards will expire at various dates, beginning in 2012, if not utilized. The foreign tax credit carryforward will begin to expire in varying amounts between 2007 and 2008, if not utilized. Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, certain substantial changes in our ownership may limit the amount of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that could be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income.

  (1)   Gain (loss) on investment has been restated to correct the fair value assigned to shares of common stock received from Peregrine Systems as payment pursuant to a software arrangement. The effect of such restatement was to increase gain (loss) on investment during the quarter ended June 30, 2002 by $5,117,000, and to decrease gain (loss) on investment, due to recovery, by $1,597,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2002.
  (2)   For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, amounts previously allocated to acquired in-process research and development ($11,182,000) in connection with the BroadJump acquisition have been reclassified to goodwill. Such reclassification resulted from our determination that the in-process research and development at the time of acquisition would not be utilized.
  (3)   Cost of license fees revenue has been restated to immediately expense certain license royalties paid for software that was not ultimately utilized. The effect of such restatement was to increase cost of license fees revenue by approximately $921,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 and to decrease cost of license fees revenue by $307,000 for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2003, December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004.
  (4)   Provision for income taxes has been restated to record foreign withholding tax in the quarter in which the related revenue was recognized. The effect of such restatement was to increase provision for income taxes by $1,045,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2003, to decrease provision for income taxes by $1,158,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2003, and to increase provision for income taxes by $113,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2003.
  (5)   For the quarter ended September 30, 2003, consideration received from Peregrine Systems in the amount of $6,083,000 has been reclassified from license fees revenue to other income.

Revenue

 

Except for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, revenue increased sequentially in each of the quarters of 2002 and 2003. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, our total revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in license fees revenue. License fees revenue decreased from the quarter ended December 31, 2002 to the quarter ended March 31, 2003 and from the quarter ended December 31, 2003 to the quarter ended March 31, 2004. This is typical as we experience seasonality in our revenue, with the fourth quarter of the year typically having the highest revenue for the year, and thus we typically experience a decrease in license fees revenue from the fourth quarter to the first quarter of the following year. We believe that this seasonality results primarily from customer budgeting cycles and our sales compensation model. We expect this seasonality will continue.

 

Services revenue growth during 2003 accelerated as a result of the BroadJump acquisition. As a part of this acquisition, we assumed liabilities related to existing contractual obligations of the BroadJump software arrangements. The fair value of these assumed liabilities was recorded as deferred revenue and this revenue is being recognized ratably over the remaining life of the individual software arrangements. This revenue will continue to decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining individual contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire as further described in our Critical Accounting Policies. We expect this declining services revenue stream to be partially offset by new contracts with these former BroadJump customers for use of a broader range of our products. We expect these new contracts to contain a ratio of license fees revenue to services revenue commensurate with our historical experience.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue generally increased on a quarterly basis in absolute dollars through the quarter ended June 30, 2003 in conjunction with our increase in revenue and the growth in our professional services organization. A component of the cost of services growth includes the costs associated with hiring and training service personnel in advance of anticipated services revenue growth as well as the costs associated with servicing the acquired BroadJump software arrangements during each of the quarters of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004. The only notable increase in cost of license fees revenue occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2003 and was due to approximately $920,000 of costs related to an agreement we entered into in June 2003 whereby we had the right to integrate and distribute certain third-party software to several of our customers. Also included in cost of revenue is the amortization of intangible technology assets acquired in the BroadJump acquisition. The intangible technology assets related to the BroadJump acquisition are being amortized over a five-year estimated useful life.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses increased sequentially in each of the quarters of 2002 as a result of increases in expenses that are directly correlated to increased revenue. Operating expenses increased during the three months ended March 31, 2003 due to the acquisition of BroadJump in mid-January 2003. This acquisition resulted in increased personnel across all organizations. Operating expenses remained relatively constant in absolute dollars for the remaining quarters through March 31, 2004 with the exception of the quarter ended December 31, 2003 in which operating expenses increased as a result of increased commission expense due to revenue growth, higher marketing expenses due to our annual customer event being held in the fourth quarter, and additional deferred stock compensation recorded in connection with stock options granted to employees and directors.

 

Other Income (Expense), Net

 

In connection with a software license arrangement between us and Peregrine Systems, we received 1,000,000 shares of unregistered Peregrine common stock in the first quarter of 2002 in satisfaction of certain accounts receivable. Upon receipt of the shares, they were classified as a short-term investment in marketable equity securities. The trading price of Peregrine stock fell from $9.52 on March 31, 2002 to $0.30 on June 30, 2002. Due to the decline in value of the Peregrine stock, in the second quarter of 2002, we deemed the Peregrine

shares to be other than temporarily impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $9.5 million. In August 2002, we received $1.6 million in cash from CIBC pursuant to the termination and settlement of an agreement in connection with our attempted sale of a portion of the Peregrine shares. We recorded the receipt of such cash as a recovery of impairment on investment during the quarter ended September 30, 2002.

 

In connection with Peregrine’s plan of reorganization in the third quarter of 2003, we recognized approximately $6.1 million in other income based upon our receipt of $4.0 million in cash and the return of 416,667 shares of our common stock. The 416,667 shares of common stock were recorded at $5.00 per share or approximately $2.1 million, which was the then current fair value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since inception, we have funded our operations and met our capital expenditure requirements through the private sale of equity securities and acquisitions. The net proceeds from our private securities issuances plus cash received from acquisitions was approximately $107 million through March 31, 2004. Cash used in operating activities was $18.2 million, $7.7 million and $23.8 million in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities was $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

To date, cash used in investing activities has consisted primarily of capital expenditures totaling $2.6 million, $1.4 million and $4.1 million in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively, and $397,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, to acquire property and equipment, mainly computer hardware and software, for our employee base and our hosting and managed services operations. Cash provided by other investing activities includes $12.6 million in cash acquired in connection with the purchase of certain assets of Question Technologies in 2001 and $51.7 million in cash acquired in connection with the acquisition of BroadJump in January 2003. Additionally, $5.7 million of cash was used in connection with the acquisition of BroadJump, of which $4.8 million was related to payments for non-competition agreements with certain executive officers of BroadJump. Net cash provided by short-term investing activities totaled $17.4 million, $3.3 million and $1.7 million in 2001, 2002, and 2003, respectively. There were no short-term investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2004. We also had an increase in restricted cash in 2003 in the amount of $15.0 million due to covenants existing on our term loans and line of credit. This amount was no longer restricted as of March 31, 2004 because this covenant was removed in the first quarter of 2004.

 

At March 31, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $50.5 million and working capital of $30.7 million. Our accounts receivable increased $2.6 million and $10.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively and decreased $10.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004. These changes are due to the fluctuations in revenue, timing of shipments and the timing of payments received from our customers. Our payment terms generally require payment within 30 to 90 days of shipment.

 

In October 2002, we issued senior subordinated promissory notes totaling $12.5 million, bearing interest at 11% annually, to certain of our stockholders. Additionally, we have term loans with Comerica Bank which bear interest at rates ranging from the bank’s prime rate (4.25% at March 31, 2004) plus 2.0% to prime plus 2.5%. At March 31, 2004, $6.2 million was outstanding under the term loans. In addition, we had a bank line of credit totaling $15.0 million which bears interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 1%. At March 31, 2004, no amount was outstanding under the bank line of credit. We have incurred $2.5 million in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 and $0.6 million in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004. These loans are secured by substantially all of our assets, including intellectual property. These term loans and the line of credit include financial covenants requiring us to maintain (a) a ratio of (i) cash, cash equivalents and eligible accounts receivable to (ii) current liabilities plus all indebtedness owed to the bank less deferred revenue, of at least 1.30 to 1.00 and (b) tangible net worth of not less than one dollar at the end of each fiscal quarter. The term loans and the line of credit define tangible net worth to include redeemable convertible preferred stock. In addition, the term loans and the line of credit restrict our ability to pay dividends, effect mergers or acquisitions,

or have an account of greater than $2.0 million at another institution without the bank’s prior approval. At December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, we were in compliance with such covenants and restrictions.

 

We expect to use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to retire the senior subordinated notes in their entirety. See “Use of Proceeds.”

 

We lease our facilities and sales offices under various operating lease agreements which expire at various times through 2012. In connection with the lease of our headquarters in Austin, Texas, we issued a stand-by letter of credit to the lessor in the amount of $1.8 million. The lessor may draw on this letter of credit should we fail to remit our monthly rent payment or should we fail to provide a renewal letter of credit prior to the expiration of the lease. The letter of credit amount is reduced to $900,000 upon the closing of an initial public offering with proceeds of at least $40 million; $450,000 upon the closing of an initial public offering with proceeds of at least $60 million; and is released in full upon the closing of an initial public offering with proceeds of at least $80 million.

 

The following table describes our commitments to settle contractual obligations in cash as of December 31, 2003:

We believe that cash on hand, cash equivalents, short-term investments and commercial credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. Thereafter, we may require additional funds to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity financings or from other sources. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to us or our stockholders. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could dilute the per share value of our common stock. Additionally, we could be forced to engage in debt financing on terms that could restrict our ability to make capital expenditures or incur additional indebtedness, which could impede our ability to achieve our business objectives.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2002 and 2003 or as of March 31, 2004.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In November 2002, the FASB reached a consensus on EITF No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. EITF 00-21 sets out criteria for whether revenue can be recognized separately from other deliverables in a multiple deliverable arrangement. The criteria considers whether the delivered item has stand-alone value to the customer, whether the fair value of the delivered item can be reliably determined and the rights of returns for the delivered item. EITF 00-21 was required to be adopted by us beginning June 15, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 is effective immediately for all new variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2003. We do not expect adoption of FIN 46 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 requires that certain financial instruments that are settled in cash, including certain types of mandatorily redeemable securities, be classified as liabilities rather than as equity or temporary equity. SFAS No. 150 becomes effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 150 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We develop our products in the United States and market them in North America, South America, Europe and the Asia/Pacific markets. As a result, our future financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. As the majority of our sales are currently made in U.S. dollars, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets.

 

From our inception through March 31, 2004, we have derived approximately $56.2 million of revenue from customers outside the United States, and our international revenue was $29.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $14.0 million over international revenue of $15.5 million for 2002. Our international revenue was $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of $5.4 million over international revenue of $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. We intend to continue to further expand our European and Asia/Pacific operations in the near term. To the extent our foreign operations expenses increase or to the extent we begin to denominate more foreign sales in local currencies, we will become subject to foreign currency fluctuations. We do not currently anticipate using hedging activities to offset these fluctuations.

 

Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly since the majority of our investments are in short-term instruments. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we believe that there is no material interest rate risk exposure.

 

As of March 31, 2004, our outstanding long-term debt, excluding our subordinated debt, was $5.5 million. Our interest expense related to long-term debt, excluding our subordinated debt, is sensitive to changes in the prime interest rate. However, we do not believe that a 10% change in the prime rate would have a significant impact on our interest expense.

BUSINESS

 

The following description of our business contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that may cause such results to differ include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

Overview

 

We are a leading provider of service management software that enables companies to build management and service directly into their customer-facing products and services. A large and increasing number of companies are employing digital hardware, software and communications technologies to enhance or, in some cases, completely redefine the products and services they sell. These new technology-enabled products create strategic growth opportunities in industries as diverse as computers, communications, software and financial services, but the costs associated with managing state-of-the-art technology environments can be over five times the cost of the technology itself. These high costs are the result of the many manual and inefficient processes required of both the providers and consumers of technology products—processes such as activation, set-up, troubleshooting, updating and repair. Our software optimizes these processes by embedding self-management services directly into our customers’ technology products.

 

Our product suite includes three distinct types of service management products. Our Self-Management products optimize management processes for the end users and administrators of technology-enabled products and services. Our Service Operations Management products optimize the processes involved in delivering service and support for these complex technology products and services, simplifying and streamlining the operations of large-scale call centers and advanced remote technical support teams. Our Policy Management products enable product vendors and service providers to manage the usage of their products and services according to business objectives and policy guidelines. Our customers license and use these products individually and in combination to address their specific business requirements.

 

Our service management software is unique in three specific ways, providing significant competitive advantages over typical infrastructure management solutions. First, our software is built directly into technology-enabled product and service offerings. This approach enables self-configuration—the ability to adapt “real time” to changing environments, self-repair—the ability to detect problems and automatically resolve them, and self-regulation—the ability to enforce policies that govern the acceptable use of products and services. Second, through our automated modeling and differencing approach, our software defines the optimal set-up and operational parameters of these technology products and services and automatically detects and corrects differences that develop as the products are used by customers. Finally, our software uses a process-driven management approach to automate the end-to-end execution of key management processes that surround the use of these technology products. By employing these unique approaches, our software addresses the entire ecosystem of people, processes and technology that must work together to bring management costs back in line with technology costs.

 

Since our inception in 1997, we have developed and successfully deployed our service management software solutions for industry-leading technology vendors, service providers and large enterprises. We estimate that these customers have used our software in connection with more than 30 million technology products and devices. We typically license our products for use during a fixed period of time, and have licensed our software to over 100 global customers. Our product offerings are complemented by a suite of services to assist customers in rapidly implementing their service management initiatives, optimizing their business processes and measuring the financial impact of our solution. Our customers include Advanced Digital Information Corp., Aliant Inc., AOL (UK) Limited, Bell Canada, BellSouth Corporation, British Telecommunications plc, Centrica

We have also established a strategic relationship with Mercury Interactive through which Mercury Interactive licenses and incorporates various elements of our technology to create a problem resolution product in future releases of their application management suite.

 

Industry Background

 

The past decade has been characterized by a proliferation of technology assets. Currently, technology represents over 50% of capital expenses and accounts for hundreds of billions of dollars in spending annually. Faced with increased pressure to drive growth and profitability, today’s business executives are changing their expectations about the role of these technology investments. Rather than the traditional focus on improving employee productivity and automating internal functions, companies are now focused on leveraging their technology to deliver new products and services that drive revenue generation as well as cost savings.

 

As technology-enabled products and services have proliferated, companies have struggled with the time-consuming, labor-intensive and error-prone management processes that surround them. For example, product and service problems waste the customer’s time, require technical support calls and drive escalating labor costs for companies who are forced to staff large call centers to keep up with service demand. Changes, such as activating or updating new products and services, result in manual and expensive truck rolls to consumer households and labor-intensive and error-prone upgrades of complex distributed applications and data center environments. In addition, the wasted labor and time of these management processes impedes a company’s ability to rapidly and cost-effectively launch new product and service offerings, impacting revenue, expense and time to market. The problem of widespread and increasing inefficiency is driving demand for solutions that optimize these time-intensive and labor-intensive management processes.

 

Companies have spent billions of dollars implementing systems management solutions to monitor and control internally owned technology assets, which has helped them ensure increased performance and uptime of their internal systems. However, these solutions were designed to control the reliability and availability of technology assets, rather than to optimize the time and labor-intensive management processes involved with customer-facing technology products and services.

 

Service management is an emerging category of infrastructure management software designed to optimize the effectiveness and efficiency of these management processes. Service management takes a top-down, business driven view of the ecosystem of people, processes and technology that work together in support of the most profitable and strategic products and services offered by a company. By focusing on optimizing management processes rather than increasing the performance and uptime of internally owned technology assets, service management software improves customer productivity and satisfaction, enables new revenue opportunities, decreases cost-of-change and reduces capital and labor expense.

 

According to International Data Corporation (IDC), the market opportunity for service-centric management software is anticipated to grow from an estimated $1.7 billion in 2004 to an estimated $3.5 billion in 2007. We believe that service management software has become a primary driver of growth in the broader $10 billion systems and network management software industry.

The Motive Solution

 

We provide service management software and services to remove management waste incurred by both providers and customers in association with leading-edge technology products. For example, product teams use our software to accelerate time to market with products that are more manageable and serviceable than competitive offerings. Call centers are able to support increased service burdens without increased cost, and can expand their capabilities to deliver remote services and value-added services. End users, whether consumers or administrators, are able to self-manage products and services, thereby increasing the value they receive and reducing cost of ownership.

 

Our service management software complements and extends traditional systems management software as well as systems management capabilities offered by other technology vendors in their products. Over the past several years, systems management vendors have widely propagated agents that collect management information from a variety of technology assets, including networks, systems, databases and applications. At the same time, the industry has also advanced through the development of open instrumentation standards and interfaces. Our service management solution exploits management data from these open interfaces and systems management products, eliminating the need to deploy proprietary agents or replace existing systems management capabilities in order to use our software.

 

Our service management software has three key characteristics—built-in management, modeling and differencing and process driven management—that differentiate it from traditional systems management software and provides competitive advantages to our customers.

 

Built-in management.    Unlike traditional systems management solutions that use external frameworks and distributed agents to monitor and control internally-owned technology assets, our service management software makes manageability and serviceability a built-in attribute of a technology-enabled product or service. Building manageability and serviceability into these products and services makes them easier for service teams, end users and administrators to activate, configure, change, diagnose, repair, upgrade and use. In addition, the technology-enabled products and services are able to automatically perform tasks to manage themselves, including self-configuration—the ability to adapt “real time” to changing environments, self-repair—the ability to detect problems and automatically resolve them and self-regulation—the ability to enforce policies that govern the acceptable use of products and services. These and other self-management capabilities are particularly important because of the constant change inherent in complex technology environments. Our built-in management capabilities work automatically with and on behalf of end users, reducing the need for external IT involvement and decreasing the occurrence of service labor spikes, product and service failure rates, customer attrition and upgrade resistance.

 

Modeling and differencing.    Data about the availability and performance status of individual technology elements is ineffective in helping a business understand how well the broader ecosystem of people, processes and technology is meeting business objectives. Our software uses a modeling and differencing approach to manage the desired behavior of technology products and services according to defined business objectives. Our model-based approach starts with a set of visual tools that enable business people to specify the optimal set-up and operational parameters of a product or service. Our analysis and differencing engine then automatically detects and corrects differences that develop as the product is used by customers, ensuring the entire ecosystem remains within optimal business guidelines.

 

Process-driven management.     Our service management software takes a process-driven approach focused on optimizing the execution and completion of management processes that operate across multiple technology assets and constituents, both inside and outside the company. Its objective is to ensure that critical business processes are being completed according to expected levels. For example, ensuring that the company is activating the expected number of new subscribers in order to meet revenue objectives, or ensuring that the company is resolving customer problems within expected timeframes in order to meet operating cost guidelines and service level agreements. Our approach enables product and service providers to deliver a set of automated,

 

45


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

process-driven services that eliminate manual management steps for customers and service operations personnel. These services are transactional, which means that our software automates the end-to-end sequence of steps in the process and manages it as a transaction between the product vendor or service provider and the customer. They are also permission-based, ensuring that external customers are able to control the management information a product vendor or service provider is allowed to access from their systems at every point in the end-to-end process.

 

Advantages of Our Solution

 

We believe that our solution provides important advantages over other infrastructure management approaches and allows our customers to:

 

Execute rapid and profitable change.    Our customers must constantly adjust their technology-enabled products and services in response to rapidly changing market and competitive scenarios. The combination of our software’s built-in management capabilities, our model-based differencing and our process management enables our customers to rapidly and cost-effectively adjust to change while minimizing time and labor costs that can impede business growth and profit objectives.

 

Optimize management processes across company boundaries.    Management of state-of-the-art technology environments typically involves products, people and processes functioning together as a unit, often extending into partner and end user premises. For example, outsourcers are being asked to manage third-party assets in remote data centers and communications service providers face the escalating challenge of activating and supporting subscriber connections in networked homes that involve personal computers, or PCs, and other digital products that are not owned by the service provider. Our service management solution permits our customers to gather management data according to permission-based guidelines established with their end users. As a result, our customers can use our service management solution to address the extended technology ecosystem, including technology in the end user premises, not just the internal technology assets owned by the company delivering products or services.

 

Increase productivity.    Our products enable businesses to automatically prevent, discover, diagnose and react to disruptions in technologies that directly impact, and are used by, their customers. Our software detects and resolves many problems before they impact our customers’ end users. In addition, should a problem occur, our automated approach gathers system data and contextual information specific to the end user’s application, and then guides the end user and the service expert to the correct solution, reducing the burden on the end user to be a technology expert. Because our customers can process and respond to service requests and service events based upon the specific context of the situation, our service management products allow organizations to satisfy a wider range of service requests through self-service transactions, self-management and self-correction. As a result, we believe our software enables end users to minimize time wasted troubleshooting system, application or network problems and reduces the number of calls to service centers and IT operations, resulting in operational savings and improved labor productivity.

 

Optimize utilization.    Our software improves asset utilization by locating under- and over-utilized technology assets and allocating usage in their most profitable manner. For example, broadband service providers can use our technology to determine which subscribers are consuming more network resources than can be profitably delivered for the price of a typical monthly subscription fee.

 

Create new sources of revenue.    Companies can use our service management software to implement new service offerings faster and with less investment and risk. For example, enterprise IT service providers use our solutions to create on-demand, fee-based service offerings for managing data center, application and desktop services for Global 2000 companies and small/medium businesses. Broadband service providers use our software solutions to more rapidly and cost-effectively deploy new value-added services to their existing subscribers, such as home networking and premium content. Our infrastructure technologies for modeling complex technology ecosystems, managing service automation and enabling integration of existing systems, combined with our

packaged and extensible service management applications, provide a way for businesses to accelerate their efforts to profit from these new opportunities.

 

Growth Strategy

 

We intend to achieve our growth objectives by building leading positions in strategic segments of the service management software market and are pursuing the following strategies:

 

Develop new and innovative products.    We have consistently added new products and entire product lines to our service management suite of products. We intend to continue to do so in the future as a means of increasing our strategic value to both existing and prospective customers. For example, in August 2003, we introduced Usage Policy Manager as the first product in a new policy management product line. We believe this product is the first to allow communications providers to automate service policies in response to growing business issues, such as subscriber attrition and excessive use or misuse of bandwidth. We believe that continued substantial investments in research and development—for both new product development and enhancements to our current offerings—will help us maintain a leading position in the service management software sector. In addition to developing new products internally, we have acquired complementary businesses that have expanded our product offerings and intend to continue to opportunistically pursue this strategy in the future.

 

Penetrate new market segments.    Our platform is extensible and allows us to focus on entering new markets with reduced development time by building applications with additional relevant functionality to meet the specific needs of these new markets. For example, our Desktop Management solution was initially targeted at the consumer PC market. We subsequently targeted that solution at the commercial PC market by adding unique functionality required for corporate administration. We are also combining our development efforts with initiatives to address new markets, including assembling new sales teams and packaging our existing products in new ways.

 

Maintain our flexible licensing model that allows us to grow with our customers.    Our licensing model enables us to generate additional revenue from existing customers in three ways. First, the majority of our license agreements are fixed-term as opposed to perpetual. Accordingly, customers renewing these licenses typically pay additional license fees to renew them upon the expiration of the initial term. Second, we price our licenses based on an expected volume of usage during the license term. Therefore, to the extent that the number of a customer’s end users increases during the initial license term, the license fees to be charged upon a renewal may increase. Finally, our licenses permit customers to use our software only in a particular manner. To the extent a customer desires to expand the scope of use of our software, we renegotiate to expand the license, creating new revenue opportunities. We intend to continue to focus on entering into term-based licenses with defined volume and usage limits in order to maintain our flexibility to grow revenue with our customers.

 

Continue to enhance customer value.    We measure the success of our products in our customers’ environments and are committed to providing recommendations for improving the effectiveness of our solutions. We do this by working closely with our customers to develop an understanding of their businesses. As a result, we are able to align our solutions to dramatically improve the effectiveness of their organizations and to optimize their investment in our solutions. We install, customize and deploy our service management solutions and deliver a comprehensive series of consulting and training programs covering all aspects of our service management solutions.

 

Expand our international operations.    We believe that international markets represent a significant opportunity for sales of our service management products and services. We intend to accelerate our growth by expanding our existing direct sales model in international markets, focusing primarily on Europe and Asia-Pacific. Today we have international operations in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain and Japan. Our solutions are available in native languages in their key foreign markets.

Products

 

Our Service Management product suite is divided into three categories according to the primary constituent served, as summarized below:

 

Self Management products optimize the management processes for the end users and administrators of technology-enabled products and services. Products in this category utilize our problem remediation and configuration management capabilities to enable end users and administrators to self-activate, self-repair and self-update their products to minimize downtime, management overhead and expense. For example, over 50 large consumer and enterprise technology providers have used our software to deliver enhanced remote product support to over 15 million end users and over 5,000 datacenter products. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, revenue from Self-Management products represented 45%, 50% and 45%, respectively, of total revenues.

 

Service Operations Management products optimize the processes involved in delivering service and support for complex technology products and services. They simplify and streamline the operations of large-scale call centers and advanced technical support departments. Products in this category use our problem remediation and configuration management capabilities to deliver troubleshooting, monitoring and change services to customers. For example, over 35 of the world’s leading broadband service call centers and computer and software support departments have used our software to optimize the work processes of their technical support representatives. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, revenue from Service Operations Management products represented 53%, 48% and 26%, respectively, of total revenues.

 

Policy Management products enable product and service owners to monitor and manage the consumption or usage of technology products, according to business objectives or operational requirements. For example, broadband service providers have experienced high variable costs due to a small number of subscribers consuming exorbitant amounts of bandwidth. Customers could use our policy management products to automatically identify the excessive users and enable a policy-based response, such as upgrading them to a more lucrative service plan, or declining their unprofitable business. To date, we have not recognized any revenue associated with the recently launched Policy Management products.

Licensing

 

We license our products in one of four ways. First, we license our products on an individual basis where each product is designed to optimize the management of a specific scenario or user community. For example, our Desktop Manager product enables PC manufacturers to provide a solution for their consumers that automates the self-management of their PC environment, including self-diagnosis, self-repair and, where necessary, automates the escalation of service problems to the vendor service desk.

 

Second, we license combinations of our products under a branded solution to address a technology optimization area. For example, our Total Broadband Care solution combines the Broadband Manager and Customer Service Manager products with a defined set of professional services to enable broadband service providers to address the full lifecycle of subscriber management, from subscriber acquisition and activation to on-going customer care including electronic and phone support. In both of these scenarios, our product is deployed at our customer’s site, and managed either by our customers or by our remote management service.

 

Third, some of our customers use our hosting and operations infrastructure rather than deploying their own IT infrastructure to deploy and support our products. For these customers, we provide a fully hosted service in which our software is deployed in our data center environment and all administration is managed by us. Our hosting operations perform in excess of 20 million daily transactions for our customers, utilizing a secure hosting facility comprising over five terabytes of storage, 175 servers and redundant high-speed OC3 connections from independent providers.

 

Finally, there are a small number of instances where large technology companies or service providers want to utilize our platform technology to build highly customized management services that they embed in their product or service. In these situations, we license our platform and tools on a stand-alone basis.

 

Services

 

Our products are complemented by a suite of services to assist customers in rapidly implementing their service management initiatives, optimizing their business processes and measuring the financial impact of our solution. We have considerable expertise in large service management deployments and focus on incorporating our solutions into our customer’s overall business strategy.

Technology and Architecture

 

We utilize a distributed Internet systems architecture and deliver a broad set of component-based management services that can be accessed across network boundaries. As described in the following diagram, these services are organized to deliver key capabilities of our product suite and to meet the management requirements of complex technology products and services.

 

Our product capabilities include:

Instrumentation Infrastructure

 

  ·   Standards-based, Vendor and Motive Instrumentation:    Capabilities that make heterogeneous system and device telemetry available to our platform in a structured XML telemetry format. Our instrumentation infrastructure normalizes data from standards-based instrumentation (such as JMX, WMI, WBEM and SNMP), vendor-specific instrumentation and our instrumentation using a lightweight “agent-less” approach.

 

Foundation Capabilities

 

  ·   Ecosystem Repository:    Capabilities that provide secure data storage for critical service management parameters in our solution, including information about user roles and privileges, policies for service interactions, managed resource information and other configuration data. This set of capabilities is key to our ecosystem modeling and blueprinting abilities.

 

  ·   Secure Transaction Services:    Capabilities that provide secure message encoding, packaging, transmission and decoding for all service management transactions. These secure transactions services utilize industry standard authentication and encryption technologies such as RSA public key encryption, X.509v3 / PKS#7 digital certificates and SSL communication protocols to perform remote service management operations. These transactions can be short- or long-lived, in that they are completed in mere seconds, or persist for days, weeks or even months.

 

Core Capabilities

 

  ·   ServiceFlow Creation and Automation:    Tools and technologies that codify, automate and execute end-to-end service management processes. Our service management system automates service processes by capturing them in a script or model that presents employees, customers and business partners with data-driven management information specific to their system and any particular service issues they are having. By tying this data-driven context to service delivery processes, we connect people to answers, experts and management data directly relevant to solving their problem. This enables customers to analyze the impact of a configuration change or determine whether service usage is within specified business policy.

 

  ·   Programmable Data Collection:    Capabilities that enable data to be flexibly harvested from all parts of a technology environment and leveraged to drive automated service flows. This enables a service management system to flexibly change service processes and adapt to new business requirements as the needs of an enterprise or its customers and partners change over time.

 

  ·   External Systems Integration:    Capabilities that enable robust bi-directional communication between our platform and other mission critical systems in our customers’ environments. The architecture provides a rich set of integration services that permit events, functions, data and transactions to be captured and exported to third-party systems such as trouble-ticket, billing and provisioning systems.

 

  ·   Incident Management:    Capabilities that enable external customers and business partners to digitally request service, check the status of open requests and update or close these requests using a set of interaction interfaces. These capabilities track service requests throughout their life cycle and organize and display management data for use by relevant parties, including enterprise IT organizations, customers and business partners. Our incident management capabilities include business intelligence attributes that enable companies to gain detailed business information about the impact of their service management efforts on customer satisfaction, responsiveness to change and cost reduction. This enables companies to analyze service transaction data, consolidated historical data and detailed business statistics involving customer profitability, customer adoption, employee efficiency and system performance.

 

53

Index to Financial Statements
  ·   Service Collaboration:    Capabilities that enable multiple people within a company or across companies to digitally collaborate on service management endeavors. These capabilities create dramatic efficiency gains because they enable groups of people to simultaneously work on a service request in a service management network rather than requiring serial escalations in which a service management request is passed from one person to another. These capabilities also enable secure, permission-based access to service collaboration capabilities by outside trusted parties, such as vendors or outsourcers.

 

Management Services

 

  ·   Problem Management:    Capabilities that enable the prevention, discovery, diagnosis and reaction of disruptions in technology products and services.

 

  ·   Configuration Management:    Capabilities that provide visibility and control over the configuration of technology products and services.

 

  ·   Policy Management:    Capabilities that monitor and manage the consumption or usage of technology assets according to business objectives or operational requirements.

 

Our architecture also ensures the scalability, reliability, flexibility and security required of an enterprise/carrier class ecosystem:

 

  ·   High scalability.    We combine a scalable service architecture with the performance, capacity, load balancing and management facilities of industry-standard web servers and databases familiar to our customers to support the highest degrees of scalability and redundancy.

 

  ·   High flexibility.    Our component-based architecture is programmable and easily customized, ensuring that the technology can be leveraged and extended to accommodate changing demands by adding new service management components and functionality as needed.

 

  ·   Open architecture to integrate with existing systems.    Our architecture makes use of Java and XML-based technologies for its integration services and provides a set of interfaces that permit access to events, functions and data within the service management system. This general-purpose interface allows integration with all types of systems as well as opportunities to customize interactions.

 

  ·   Certified security.    Our architecture ensures that all service requests come from authorized sources and provides encryption of data for transport across the Internet. In addition, our technology is designed to permit service requests to pass through corporate firewalls without requiring changes that compromise firewall integrity. Our security implementation is regularly audited and certified by an independent firm of national standing.

 

  ·   Broad range of computing platforms.    Our browser plug-ins are designed to run on Microsoft Windows platforms as well as Solaris, HP/UX, Linux and AIX. Our architecture is also designed to be extendible to Internet appliance devices. Our servers currently run on the UNIX, HP/UX, AIX, Solaris, Linux and Microsoft NT operating system platforms.

 

Strategic Relationships

 

We are committed to working with application and system-level partners that can enhance our solutions or increase the value our customers receive from our technology. We focus on establishing and maintaining relationships with leading hardware and software providers across the entire IT infrastructure, as well as with the systems integrators who deploy the technology. These relationships range from strategic software licensing agreements, where our technology is embedded into a partner’s products and deployed as part of their solution, to strategic platform agreements, where third parties can deploy and sell their own set of applications on top of our software.

In October 2002, we formed the Meteor Alliance with Hewlett-Packard, VERITAS and EMC to establish a program to deliver proactive services into multi-vendor IT datacenters utilizing a common technology infrastructure supplied by us. The Meteor Alliance was publicly launched in October 2003.

 

We have also established a strategic relationship with Mercury Interactive through which Mercury has executed a three-year license agreement permitting it to incorporate various elements of our technology to create a problem resolution product in future releases of their application management suite. Mercury has paid the $15 million minimum license fees owed to us pursuant to this agreement.

 

We also have relationships with complementary product companies to deliver a more comprehensive management solution to our customers. For example, we have a dedicated program to ensure effective technology integrations necessary for provisioning and management of customer premise equipment. We also have relationships with major CRM software providers, as well as major systems and network platform providers.

 

We have established relationships with leading systems integrators whose work is the design and implementation of technology ecosystems. These partners include firms offering strategy, change management, process design, usability and integration and outsourcing services.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

Our strategy has been to develop a direct sales model and target leading companies in selected industries to build our service management solutions into their technology-enabled products and services. As of December 31, 2003, our sales and marketing organizations consisted of 84 employees located in a variety of domestic locations, as well as Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain and Japan. We generate leads from a variety of sources, including marketing programs and inside sales activities. Initial sales activities typically include a demonstration of our product capabilities, a customer-specific technical and financial analysis and information regarding deployment capabilities.

 

We develop and execute a variety of marketing programs to build market awareness about us, our service management solutions and their value to potential customers. A broad mix of programs is used to accomplish these goals, including market research, product and strategy updates with industry analysts, public relations activities, direct mail and relationship marketing programs, Internet marketing, seminars, industry-specific trade shows, speaking engagements and co-operative marketing with customers and partners. Our marketing organization also produces materials in support of sales to prospective customers that include Internet web sites, programs and materials, brochures, data sheets, white papers, presentations, demonstrations and other marketing tools.

 

Research and Development

 

We have made substantial investments in research and development through both internal development and technology acquisition. The majority of our research and development activity has been directed towards the expansion of our service management solutions. This development consists primarily of adding new competitive features to established products, as well as the creation of additional products, content and tools as we expand into new markets. In addition, we leverage our strategic partner and customer relationships to identify and develop new innovative solutions. As of March 31, 2004, we have received eight issued patents for our technology innovations over the course of five generations of product development and have an additional 10 patent applications currently being reviewed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

 

As of December 31, 2003, we had 105 employees in our research and development organization. Our research and development expenditures for fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003 were approximately $12.9 million, $11.2 million and $16.9 million, respectively. Our research and development expenditures for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 were approximately $4.2 million. We expect that we will continue to commit

significant resources to research and development in the future. All research and development expenses have been expensed as incurred. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

Competition

 

The service management market is new, rapidly evolving and increasingly competitive. Our current and potential competitors in the market vary in size and in the scope of the products and services that they offer or may offer in the future. Many of our current and potential competitors have greater financial, marketing and infrastructure resources than we have. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to changes in customer requirements. They may also be able to devote greater resources than we can to sales and marketing and research and development. Competition may also result in changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, future quarterly and annual operating results and financial condition. We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors.

 

Companies that individually, or collectively, offer competitive products, may develop competitive products or may adopt a similar business model to ours include the following:

 

  ·   providers of broad service management product lines, such as Mercury Interactive. Mercury Interactive currently licenses certain components of our technology and provides its customers with categories of service management software different from those we provide our customers. Specifically, Mercury Interactive provides products for application testing, tuning and performance and IT governance, while we provide products that principally address problem management, configuration management and policy management. Mercury Interactive may broaden its product portfolio to enter our current markets;

 

  ·   providers of point service management products focused on problem management and technical support automation for PCs and devices, such as SupportSoft, Inc., Control-F1 and Axeda;

 

  ·   providers of point service management products focused on configuration management such as Relicore Inc., Troux, Cendura and OpsWare Inc., along with broadband-specific companies such as Fine Point Technologies, Inc. and Alopa;

 

  ·   providers of service management products focused on automated policies governing technology usage, such as Euclid and Oblicore Inc. in the enterprise IT market, along with Stargus and Ellacoya Networks in the broadband market;

 

  ·   providers of point products for application performance management, including Dirig Software, Inc., Tonic Software, Inc. and Wily Technology;

 

  ·   providers of traditional enterprise systems management platforms and point products such as IBM/Tivoli Systems, BMC Software, Inc., Hewlett-Packard, Computer Associates, Micromuse, Managed Objects and Smarts. While none of these companies currently offer service management products that are designated to optimize profits from technology assets, they are beginning to incorporate aspects of service management concepts in their marketing messages and may in the future deliver service management products;

 

  ·   Internet infrastructure and platform companies that may add service management functionality to their products, such as BEA Systems, IBM, Microsoft Corp., SAP and Oracle Corp.;

 

  ·   providers of hardware devices for broadband networks attempting to differentiate their products with proprietary built-in management software such as 2Wire and Efficient Networks.

 

  ·   providers of call center automation products and solutions such as Amdocs Limited (Clarify), Onyx Software and Siebel Systems; and

 

  ·   internal development groups of our current and prospective customers who may choose to develop their own service management software.

 

56

We believe the principal competitive factors in our industry are:

 

  ·   product features and functionality;

 

  ·   time to market with new products that respond to changing customer requirements;

 

  ·   availability of professional services to rapidly develop and deploy a complete solution;

 

  ·   flexible deployment options including remote-managed and hosted environments;

 

  ·   ability to handle large volumes of end users and transactions; and

 

  ·   price.

 

Intellectual Property and Other Proprietary Rights

 

Our success heavily depends on our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark and patent laws, confidentiality procedures, contractual provisions and other similar measures to protect our proprietary information and intellectual property rights. As part of our confidentiality procedures, we enter into proprietary information and invention agreements with our employees and non-disclosure agreements with certain of our consultants, customers, prospective customers and service providers. We also enter into license agreements with respect to our technology, documentation and other proprietary information.

 

The unauthorized reproduction or other misappropriation of our proprietary technology could enable third parties to benefit from our technology without paying us for it. In addition, the steps we have taken to protect our proprietary rights and intellectual property may not be adequate to deter misappropriation. We may not be able to detect unauthorized use of our proprietary information or take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our software or technology that we consider proprietary and third parties may attempt to develop similar technology independently.

 

We currently hold a trademark registration in the United States for the Motive name, our logo and certain marks associated with our product suite. We also hold a trademark registration of, or have pending applications for the trademark registration of, the Motive name, our logo and for certain marks associated with our product suite in certain countries in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. In addition, as of March 31, 2004, we have eight patents issued and 10 pending patent applications for technology related to our product suite. Our patents have expiration dates ranging from 2018 to 2020. It is possible that our patents, copyrights or registered trademarks could be challenged and invalidated. In addition, existing patent, copyright and trademark laws afford only limited protections. Effective protection of intellectual property rights may be unavailable or limited in certain countries, because the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Monitoring unauthorized use of our patents and trademarks is difficult and expensive, particularly given the global nature and reach of the Internet. Furthermore, it is possible that our competitors will adopt product or service names similar to ours, impeding our ability to protect our intellectual property and possibly leading to customer confusion. Although we are not aware that our products, patents, trademarks, copyrights or other proprietary rights infringe the proprietary rights of third parties, any infringement claims, with or without merit, brought by such third parties could be time-consuming and expensive to defend.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2003, we had 374 total employees. Our future success will depend on our continuing ability to attract, train and retain highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel. Our employees are not represented by a collective bargaining agreement and we have never experienced a strike or similar work stoppage. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Facilities

 

Our principal administrative, sales and marketing and research and development facility is located in Austin, Texas and consists of approximately 117,300 square feet of office space under a lease that expires December 2012. We also maintain offices for sales and support personnel in San Ramon, California; Denver, Colorado; Atlanta, Georgia; Boston, Massachusetts; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Houston, Texas; Toronto, Canada; Paris, France; Zurich, Switzerland; Munich, Germany; London, England; and Tokyo, Japan. We believe that our facilities are adequate for our current needs and that suitable additional or substitute space will be available as needed to accommodate foreseeable expansion of our operations.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

Board Composition

 

Upon completion of this offering, our board of directors will be divided into three separate classes, as follows:

 

  ·   Class I consisting of Mr. Harmon, Mr. Jones and Mr. Thornton, whose terms will expire at our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2005;

 

  ·   Class II consisting of Mr. LaVigna and Mr. Sikora, whose terms will expire at our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2006; and

 

  ·   Class III consisting of Mr. Maples and Mr. Meredith, whose terms will expire at our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2007.

 

Upon expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors for that class will be elected for three-year terms at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which such term expires. Each director’s term is subject to the election and qualification of his successor, or his earlier death, resignation or removal. The authorized number of directors may be changed by resolution duly adopted by at least a majority of our entire board of directors. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. Because no more than one-third of our board may be elected at each annual meeting, this classification of our board of directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control of management.

 

Board Committees

 

The board of directors has an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating committee.

 

Audit Committee.    The audit committee selects our independent accountants, reviews the results and scope of audit and other services provided by our independent accountants, reviews and evaluates the audit and control functions and pre-approves any non-audit related services performed by our independent auditors. The members of our audit committee are Mr. LaVigna, Mr. Meredith and Mr. Sikora.

Compensation Committee.    The compensation committee reviews, administers and makes recommendations to our board of directors regarding our stock plans and makes decisions concerning salaries and incentive compensation for our management. The members of our compensation committee are Mr. Meredith and Mr. Thornton.

 

Nominating Committee. The nominating committee identifies individuals qualified to become board members, recommends a slate of director nominees to be elected or appointed to the board and recommends membership on standing board committees. The members of our nominating committee are Mr. LaVigna and Mr. Sikora.

 

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

 

During 2002, Mr. Maples and Mr. Sikora were members of our compensation committee. From January 2000 to April 2000, Mr. Sikora served as our co-president. At the time of our acquisition of certain assets of Question Technologies, Mr. Sikora was an officer, director and stockholder of Question Technologies. For additional discussion of this transaction see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Transactions with Directors and Officers.” None of our executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors of, or compensation committee of, any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our board of directors or compensation committee.

 

Director Compensation

 

Prior to 2003, except for grants of stock options, our directors generally did not receive compensation for services provided as a director. We also did not pay compensation for committee participation or special assignments of the board of directors. In January 2003, our board of directors adopted a director remuneration plan with respect to its members. The plan provides that each new non-employee director that joins our board is granted an option to purchase 12,500 shares of our common stock (25,000 shares in the case of a new director who serves as the chairman of the audit committee of our board) at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of such stock on the date of the option grant. Thereafter, each non-employee director will be granted an option to purchase 3,125 shares of our common stock (6,250 shares in the case of a director who serves as the chairman of the audit committee of our board of directors) on each anniversary of his service at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of such stock on the date of the option grant. Each option under the director remuneration plan is granted under our 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan and is subject to the same restrictions as options typically granted to employees of the company, but vests in equal successive quarterly amounts over a 48-month period. Following the offering contemplated by this prospectus, no additional options will be granted under the 2003 director remuneration plan. Instead, options will be granted to non-employee directors under our Equity Incentive Plan, as described below.

 

Non-employee board members are eligible for option grants under the automatic option grant program for non-employee board members under our Equity Incentive Plan. Under our Equity Incentive Plan, each non-employee director who first becomes a non-employee board member after the date of this offering will be granted an option to purchase 12,500 shares of our common stock on the date such individual joins the board (25,000 shares in the case of a new director who is appointed chairman of the audit committee of our board). These options will become vested as follows: 25% of the option shares become vested upon the completion of 12 months of service and an additional 6.25% of the option shares become vested upon the completion of each quarter of service thereafter. In addition, at each annual meeting of stockholders, each individual who will continue to be a director after such annual meeting will receive an additional option to purchase 3,125 shares of common stock (6,250 shares in the case of a non-employee director who serves as chairman of the audit committee of our board). These options will vest at a rate of 6.25% upon the completion of each quarter of service after the grant date. Each director who received an initial option grant under the automatic option grant program will first be eligible to receive an annual option grant under the automatic option grant program in the calendar year following the year in which he or she received the initial option grant. The exercise price for each option grant will be equal to the fair market value per share of our common stock on the option grant date. Upon a change in control of our company or a termination of the director’s service as a result of death, disability or retirement at or after age 65, the options granted under this automatic option grant program become fully vested.

Non-employee directors are also eligible to receive options and be issued shares of common stock under our Equity Incentive Plan outside of the automatic option grant program. Directors who are also our employees are eligible to receive options and be issued shares of common stock directly under our Equity Incentive Plan and are also eligible to participate in our Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

 

Non-employee directors also receive a meeting fee equal to $1,500 for each meeting of either the entire board of directors or a committee thereof that the director attends in person, as opposed to by teleconference. Under the Equity Incentive Plan, each of our non-employee directors has the option at the beginning of each calendar year to choose to waive the meeting fees and instead to be granted an option to purchase 1,500 shares of our common stock for each meeting that the director attends.

 

We have an arrangement with Mr. Eric Jones pursuant to which we pay him $6,250 each month for executive management consulting services. Mr. Jones consults with our CEO and other executives on matters of strategic importance to our company as well as on other current business issues, all as we may request from time to time. Examples of such consultation include providing input on organizational structure and responsibility, interviewing and screening potential executive hires, and participating in quarterly executive strategy sessions with respect to our product and market direction. Mr. Jones’ monthly consulting fee is fixed regardless of the amount of services rendered. The agreement will continue until terminated by either party upon 30 days prior notice.

 

Indemnification and Limitation of Director and Officer Liability

 

Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except to the extent otherwise required by the Delaware General Corporation Law. This limitation of liability may not apply to liabilities arising under the federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

 

Our certificate of incorporation also provides that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with certain of our directors and executive officers containing provisions that may require us to, among other things:

 

  ·   indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law;

 

  ·   advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified; and

 

  ·   obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance, if available on reasonable terms.

  Stock   Options

 

The following table sets forth each grant of stock options in 2003 to our named executive officers. No stock appreciation rights were granted during such period.

 

The figures representing percentages of total options granted to employees in the last fiscal year are based on a total of 2,553,624 options granted to our employees during fiscal year 2003. Each of the options listed in the table is immediately exercisable. The shares purchased under the options may be repurchased by us at the original exercise price per share if the optionee ceases service with us before vesting in the shares.

 

The amounts listed in the following table under the heading “Exercise or Base Price” were valued by our board of directors on the date of grant. In determining this fair market value, the board of directors took into account the purchase price paid by the investors for shares of our preferred stock (taking into account the liquidation preferences and other rights, privileges and preferences associated with such preferred stock) and an evaluation by the board of directors of our revenue, operating history and prospects. The exercise price may be paid in cash, in shares of our common stock valued at fair market value on the exercise date or through a cashless exercise procedure involving a same-day sale of the purchased shares.

 

The amounts shown in the table as potential realizable value are calculated by:

 

  ·   multiplying the number of shares of our common stock subject to a given option by the assumed initial public offering price of $12.00 per share;

 

64


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
  ·   assuming that the aggregate stock value derived from that calculation compounds at the annual 0%, 5% or 10% rates shown in the table for the entire ten-year term of the option; and

 

  ·   subtracting from that result the total option exercise price.

 

The 5% and 10% assumed compounded annual rates of stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent our estimate or projection of the future price of our common stock. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises depend on the future performance of our common stock.

Change of Control Arrangements and Employment Agreements

 

If we experience a change in control, an option or other award granted under our Equity Incentive Plan will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the option or award is not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent or if the surviving corporation or its parent does not substitute comparable awards for the awards granted under such plans. In addition, under the Equity Incentive Plan, if an award recipient is involuntarily terminated within 12 months following a change in control, then such recipient will receive an additional 12 months of vesting in his or her award.

 

In January 2003, we entered into a bonus agreement with R. Logan Wray, our Chief Operating Officer. This agreement provides for 12 quarterly cash payments to Mr. Wray (in addition to his salary) each in the amount of $125,000. The agreement will terminate upon the last quarterly payment due to Mr. Wray, or earlier if (1) Mr. Wray voluntarily terminates his employment with us (except as a result of a material reduction by us in his responsibilities or in his compensation and benefits not also imposed on other senior executives) or (2) his employment is terminated due to death or disability.

 

In November 2001, we entered into a written agreement with Paul M. Baker, our Chief Financial Officer. This agreement provided for an initial annual base salary of $175,000, participation in our stock option program and all eligible employee benefit plans and reimbursement for certain travel expenses. In addition, we will reimburse Mr. Baker for any U.S. income taxes that he may incur on certain expense reimbursements. If we terminate Mr. Baker’s employment for any reason, Mr. Baker is entitled to receive a severance package consisting of 12 months salary plus any bonus that he would have received and continued vesting of any stock options issued to Mr. Baker for 12 months and we will repatriate Mr. Baker to the United Kingdom and reimburse his relocation expenses up to $50,000.

 

In January 2003, we entered into a written employment agreement with Kenny Van Zant, Executive Vice President of our Consumer Business Unit. This employment agreement is for a three-year term expiring January 2006 and provides for an initial annual base salary of $235,000. In addition, he is entitled to participate in employee benefit plans for which other senior executives are generally eligible. Mr. Van Zant is entitled to receive bonuses and such other compensation as we may determine that is commensurate with bonuses and other compensation that we may pay to other senior executives. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Van Zant may not terminate his employment prior to January 17, 2006 except for reasons described in the agreement, including a material breach of the agreement by us, which would include a material reduction in his duties, job title or responsibilities. Additionally, we may terminate Mr. Van Zant’s employment upon death, disability or for cause (as defined in the agreement). If we terminate Mr. Van Zant’s employment for any other reason, or if Mr. Van Zant terminates his employment due to a material breach of the agreement by us, then Mr. Van Zant will be entitled to a severance package consisting of 12 months of salary, a pro rata share of any bonus to which he would have otherwise been entitled and 12 months of benefits. Additionally, in connection with the BroadJump acquisition, Mr. Van Zant entered into a Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement that expires in January 2006, for which he received $1.2 million.

 

In October 2002, we entered into a written agreement with Jeffrey S. Bolke, our Vice President of Worldwide Sales. This agreement provides for an annual base salary of $225,000, and target annual variable compensation of $225,000 in accordance with our sales commission plan and participation in our stock option program and all eligible employee benefit plans. If, prior to January 31, 2005, we terminate Mr. Bolke’s employment in connection with a corporate transaction or for any reason other than for misconduct, then Mr. Bolke is entitled to 12 months of severance and benefits at his then-current base salary.

 

Employee Stock Plans

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

Our Equity Incentive Plan was adopted by our board of directors on November 21, 2003. We have also obtained stockholder approval of this plan. We have reserved 1.25 million shares of our common stock for issuance under the

 

66


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

Equity Incentive Plan. Any shares not yet issued under our 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan on the date of this offering will also be available to be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan. On January 1 of each year, starting with the year 2005, the number of shares in the reserve will automatically increase by the lesser of: (1) 4% of the total number of shares of common stock that are then outstanding; (2) 1.25 million shares; or (3) a lesser number determined by our board. In general, if options or shares awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan or options awarded under the 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan are forfeited, then those options or shares will again become available for awards under the Equity Incentive Plan. No options have yet been granted under the Equity Incentive Plan.

 

Under the Equity Incentive Plan, the eligible individuals are:

 

  ·   employees;

 

  ·   non-employee members of our board of directors; and

 

  ·   consultants.

 

The types of awards that may be made under the Equity Incentive Plan are:

 

  ·   options to purchase shares of common stock;

 

  ·   stock appreciation rights;

 

  ·   restricted shares; and

 

  ·   stock units.

 

Options may be incentive stock options that qualify for favorable tax treatment for the optionee under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or nonstatutory stock options not designed to qualify for such favorable tax treatment. The exercise price for incentive stock options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the option grant date.

 

The compensation committee of our board of directors administers the Equity Incentive Plan. Except with respect to the automatic option grant program for non-employee board members discussed below, the committee has the complete discretion to make all decisions relating to the interpretation and operation of our Equity Incentive Plan. The committee has the discretion to determine which eligible individuals are to receive any award, and to determine the type, number, vesting requirements and other features and conditions of each award.

 

The exercise price for options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan may be paid by using:

 

  ·   cash;

 

  ·   outstanding shares of our common stock; or

 

  ·   an approved cashless exercise method with a designated broker.

 

The purchase price for newly issued restricted shares awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan will be stated in each individual restricted share agreement. However, in all cases, the par value for the newly issued restricted shares will be payable in cash.

 

The purchase price for a stock appreciation right may be paid by using cash or outstanding shares of common stock.

 

The committee may reprice options and may modify, extend or assume outstanding options and stock appreciation rights. The committee may accept the cancellation of outstanding options or stock appreciation rights in return for the grant of new options or stock appreciation rights. The new option or right may have the same or a different number of shares and the same or a different exercise price.

 

The maximum number of option shares that a person may receive in a fiscal year is five million.

 

67


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

If we experience a change in control, an option or other award under the Equity Incentive Plan will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the option or award is not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent or if the surviving corporation or its parent does not substitute comparable awards for the awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan.

 

A change in control includes:

 

  ·   a merger or consolidation involving our company after which our then current stockholders own less than 50% of the surviving corporation;

 

  ·   sale of all or substantially all of our assets;

 

  ·   a proxy contest that results in replacement of more than one-half of our directors over a 24-month period; or

 

  ·   an acquisition of 50% or more of our outstanding stock by a person other than a person related to us, such as a corporation owned by our stockholders.

 

Non-employee board members are eligible for option grants under the automatic option grant program for non-employee board members under our Equity Incentive Plan. Under our Equity Incentive Plan, each non-employee director who first becomes a non-employee board member after the date of this offering will be granted an option to purchase 12,500 shares of our common stock on the date such individual joins the board (25,000 shares in the case of a new director who is appointed chairman of the audit committee of our board). These options will become vested as follows: 25% of the option shares become vested upon the completion of 12 months of service and an additional 6.25% of the option shares become vested upon the completion of each quarter of service thereafter. In addition, at each annual meeting of stockholders, each individual who will continue to be a director after such annual meeting will receive an additional option to purchase 3,125 shares of common stock (6,250 shares in the case of a director who serves as chairman of the audit committee of our board). These options will vest at a rate of 6.25% upon the completion of each quarter of service after the grant date. Each director who received an initial option grant under the automatic option grant program will first be eligible to receive an annual option grant under the automatic option grant program in the calendar year following the year in which he or she received the initial option grant. The exercise price for each option grant will be equal to the fair market value per share of our common stock on the option grant date. Upon a change in control of our company or a termination of the director’s service as a result of death, disability or retirement at or after age 65, the options granted under this automatic option grant program become fully vested.

 

Our board may amend or terminate the Equity Incentive Plan at any time. If our board amends the plan, stockholder approval of the amendment will be sought only if required by applicable law. The Equity Incentive Plan will continue in effect for a 10-year term unless the board decides to terminate the plan earlier.

 

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

Our board of directors adopted our Employee Stock Purchase Plan on November 21, 2003. We have also obtained stockholder approval of this plan. We have reserved 750,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. As of January 1 each year, starting in 2005, the number of shares reserved for issuance under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be increased automatically by the lesser of: (1) 2% of the total number of shares of common stock then outstanding; (2) 500,000 shares; or (3) a lesser amount determined by our board. Our Employee Stock Purchase Plan is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Eligible employees may begin participating in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at the start of an offering period. Each offering period will last six months. Offering periods will start on February 1 and August 1 of each calendar year. However, the first offering period will start on the effective date of this offering and end on July 31, 2004. Purchases of our common stock will occur on the last day of each offering period, approximately every January 31 and July 31.

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

Our Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. Each of our employees is eligible to participate if he or she is employed by us for more than 20 hours per week for more than five months per year.

 

Our Employee Stock Purchase Plan permits each eligible employee to purchase common stock through payroll deductions. Each employee’s payroll deductions may not exceed 15% of the employee’s cash compensation. The initial period during which payroll deductions may be contributed will begin on the effective date of this offering and end on July 31, 2004.

 

The price of each share of common stock purchased under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be 85% of the lower of:

 

  (A)   the fair market value per share of common stock on the first day of the applicable offering period or

 

  (B)   the fair market value per share of common stock on the last day of the applicable offering period.

 

In the case of the first offering period, the price per share under the plan will be 85% of the lower of:

 

  (A)   the price offered to the public in this offering or

 

  (B)   the fair market value per share of common stock on July 31, 2004.

 

Employees may end their participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at any time. Participation ends automatically upon termination of employment with us.

 

If we experience a change in control, our Employee Stock Purchase Plan will end and shares will be purchased with the payroll deductions accumulated to date by participating employees, unless the plan is assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent. Our board of directors may amend or terminate the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at any time. If our board increases the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, it must seek the approval of our stockholders.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Transactions with Directors and Officers

 

Debt Financing

 

In October 2002, we borrowed a total of $12.5 million pursuant to senior subordinated promissory notes, of which we borrowed $11.8 million from Austin Ventures VII, L.P. and $500,000 from Eric L. Jones and his spouse. In connection with this transaction, we issued to these noteholders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 443,452 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.004 per share. Funds affiliated with Austin Ventures owned approximately 19.2% of our outstanding shares as of March 31, 2004. One of our directors, John D. Thornton, is a General Partner of Austin Ventures. Mr. Jones is one of our directors. The notes bear interest at 11.0% annually. We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay all of the outstanding senior subordinated promissory notes. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under such notes as of March 31, 2004 was approximately $12.5 million.

The acquisition of the Question Technologies assets and the consideration paid therefor was considered and approved by a special committee of our board of directors comprised of disinterested directors.

 

As a result of our acquisition of BroadJump in January 2003 in exchange for 9,557,977 shares of our capital stock, Kip McClanahan, President and Chief Executive Officer of BroadJump, and Michael LaVigna, a director of BroadJump, joined our Board of Directors. Mr. McClanahan resigned from our board of directors in December 2003. Funds affiliated with Austin Ventures owned approximately 18.0% of the capital stock of BroadJump at the time of the BroadJump acquisition. One of Mr. Thornton’s partners at Austin Ventures was a member of the board of directors of BroadJump at the time of the BroadJump acquisition. The acquisition of and consideration paid for BroadJump was considered and approved by the disinterested directors on our board.

 

In January 2003, in connection with the BroadJump acquisition, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. McClanahan, our former President and a former director. Mr. McClanahan resigned as President in November 2003 and we have no further obligations under his employment agreement. The employment agreement was originally for a three-year term to expire in January 2006 and provided for an initial annual base salary of $250,000. In addition, Mr. McClanahan was entitled to participate in employee benefit plans for which other senior executives were generally eligible, and he was entitled to receive bonuses and such other compensation as we determined was commensurate with bonuses and other compensation paid to other senior executives. Additionally, in connection with the BroadJump acquisition, Mr. McClanahan entered into a Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement that expires in January 2006, for which he received approximately $1.6 million.

During 1998, we made loans to Patrick D. Motola, our former Vice President of Business Development, in the aggregate amount of $330,254 for the purchase of shares of our common stock and preferred stock. As of December 31, 2002, all outstanding amounts due under these loans were satisfied and the loans are no longer outstanding.

 

The son of director Michael J. Maples, Sr. has been one of our employees for approximately six years. Currently, he is a non-executive employee and received aggregate compensation of $194,535 during 2003.

 

We have also entered into employment agreements and indemnification agreements with certain of our executive officers and directors. See “Management—Indemnification and Limitation of Director and Officer Liability” and “ —Change of Control Arrangements and Employment Agreements.”

 

We believe that all of these transactions were made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

On the closing of this offering, under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to become effective upon the closing, our authorized capital stock will consist of 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of March 31, 2004, assuming the conversion of all of our outstanding preferred stock into common stock, there were 20,155,448 shares of common stock outstanding that were held of record by approximately 654 stockholders. There will be 25,155,448 shares of common stock outstanding (assuming no exercise after March 31, 2004 of outstanding options or warrants) after giving effect to the sale of the shares of common stock to the public in this offering and the conversion of our preferred stock into common stock on completion of this offering. On the closing of this offering, 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock will be authorized and no shares of preferred stock will be outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders and there are no cumulative voting rights. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratable dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable, and the shares of common stock to be issued on completion of this offering will be fully paid and nonassessable.

 

Preferred Stock

 

On the closing of this offering, no shares of preferred stock will be outstanding. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to determine, with respect to any such class or series, the designations, powers, preferences and rights of such class or series, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series or the designation of such class or series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. We currently have no plans to issue any preferred stock. We believe that the ability of the board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock will provide us with flexibility in structuring possible future financings and acquisitions and in meeting other corporate needs that might arise. Our board of directors could issue preferred stock having terms that could discourage a potential acquiror from making, without first negotiating with the board of directors, an acquisition attempt through which such acquiror may be able to change the composition of the board of directors, including a tender offer or other takeover attempt.

 

Warrants

 

In conjunction with our line of credit, we have issued the following warrants to our bank: (1) a warrant to purchase up to 50,000 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $16.00 per share, which expires on June 1, 2008; (2) a warrant to purchase up to 62,500 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $12.00 per share, which expires on March 22, 2007; (3) a warrant to purchase up to 6,250 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which expires on August 30, 2007; and (4) a warrant to purchase up to 37,500 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which expires on September 12, 2007.

In connection with our senior subordinated promissory notes issued in October 2002, we issued warrants to the holders of such notes to purchase 450,664 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.004 per share, of which warrants to purchase 425,426 shares remain unexercised. The warrants expire on October 11, 2012.

 

In connection with a Corporate Partnering and OEM Software License Agreement entered into in June 2003, we issued warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The warrants expire on August 11, 2008.

 

In connection with Warrant Agreements entered into as of October 28, 2003 with 27 of our stockholders, we issued warrants to purchase 4,763 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. These warrants expire on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of a liquidity event or October 28, 2010.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Certain of the provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws discussed below may have the effect of making more difficult or discouraging a tender offer, proxy contest or other takeover attempt. Those provisions, summarized below, include restrictions on the rights of stockholders to remove directors, prohibitions against stockholders calling a special meeting of stockholders or acting by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting and requirements for advance notice of actions proposed by stockholders for consideration at meetings of the stockholders. These provisions are expected to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of our company to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increasing our ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure our company outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

 

Delaware Anti-Takeover Law

 

We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, an anti-takeover law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder, unless:

 

  ·   the board of directors approves the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder prior to the date the interested stockholder attained that status;

 

  ·   when the stockholder became an interested stockholder, he or she owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers; or

 

  ·   on or subsequent to the date the business combination is approved by the board of directors, the business combination is authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

 

Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock.

 

The existence of this provision would be expected to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors, including discouraging attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of our common stock.

 

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

 

Classified Board of Directors.    Upon the closing of this offering, our board of directors will be divided into three classes of directors, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each class serving a staggered term.

 

76


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

Any vacancy on the board of directors, regardless of the reason for the vacancy, may only be filled by vote of the majority of the directors then in office. In addition, directors may only be removed for cause by the holders of two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote at an election of directors. The classification of directors will have the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to change the composition of our board of directors and could also discourage a third-party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company and may maintain the incumbency of our board of directors, as the classification of the board of directors generally increases the difficulty of replacing a majority of the directors.

 

Stockholder Action.    Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will provide that stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be taken by written consent in lieu of a meeting. The prohibitions on stockholder action by written consent would prevent the holders of a majority of our voting stock from unilaterally using the written consent procedure to take stockholder action. The prohibition of stockholders’ written consents should deter hostile takeover attempts. Without the availability of stockholders’ actions by written consent, a holder or group of holders controlling a majority in interest of our capital stock would not be able to amend our bylaws or remove directors pursuant to a stockholders’ written consent. In addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will provide that special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer or by a majority of our board of directors.

 

Advance Notice Requirement for Stockholder Proposals.    Our bylaws will establish an advance notice procedure for stockholders proposals to be brought before our annual meeting of stockholders, including any proposed nominations of persons for election to our board of directors. Stockholders at an annual meeting may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors or by a stockholder who was a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has given to our secretary timely written notice, in proper form, of the stockholder’s intention to bring that business before the meeting. Although the bylaws do not give our board of directors the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors or proposals regarding other business to be conducted at a special or annual meeting of the stockholders, the bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed or may discourage or deter a potential acquiror from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company. By requiring advance notice of other proposed business, the stockholder advance notice procedure will also provide a more orderly procedure for conducting annual meeting of stockholders and, to the extent deemed necessary or desirable by the board of directors, will provide the board of directors with an opportunity to inform stockholders, prior to such meetings, of any business proposed to be conducted at such meetings, together with any recommendations as to the board of directors’ position regarding action to be taken with respect to such business, so that stockholders can better decide whether to attend such a meeting or to grant a proxy regarding the disposition of any such business.

 

Supermajority Voting Provisions.    Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will require that any amendment to the bylaws or certain provisions of the certificate of incorporation, including those provisions discussed above, must be approved by the holders of at least two-thirds of our then-outstanding voting stock. This requirement will prevent a stockholder with only a majority of our common stock from avoiding the requirements of the provisions discussed above by amending or repealing such provisions.

 

Registration Rights

 

Under the terms of the agreement between us and the holders of certain of our registrable securities, the holders of at least two-thirds of such registrable securities are entitled to demand registration rights, pursuant to which they may require us on up to two occasions to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 at our expense with respect to their registrable securities, and we are required to use all reasonable efforts to effect such registration. As of March 31, 2004, the holders of approximately 10,180,072 shares of our common

stock, or rights to acquire such shares upon the conversion of our shares of mandatorily redeemable, convertible preferred stock or the exercise of the warrants we issued on October 11, 2002, were entitled to such rights with respect to the registration of such shares under the Securities Act of 1933. Further, holders of 25% or more of such registrable securities may require us to file three additional registration statements on Form S-3 at our expense.

 

In addition to the registration rights described above, under the terms of the agreement between us and the holders of such registrable securities, if we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act of 1933, either for our own account or for the account of other security holders exercising registration rights, certain holders are entitled to notice of such registration and are entitled to include shares of such registrable securities in the registration. As of March 31, 2004, the holders of approximately 16,687,318 shares of our common stock, or rights to acquire such shares upon the conversion of our shares of mandatorily redeemable, convertible preferred stock or the exercise of the warrants we issued on October 11, 2002, were entitled to such rights with respect to the registration of such shares under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

All of the registration rights described above terminate after four years following the consummation of our initial public offering and are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares included in such registration and our right not to effect a requested registration within 180 days following the effective date of an offering of our securities pursuant to Form S-1, including the offering made by this prospectus.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Immediately prior to this offering, there was no public market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Upon completion of this offering, we will have outstanding an aggregate of 25,155,448 shares of common stock, assuming the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of common stock offered hereby and no exercise of options after March 31, 2004. Of these shares, the 5,000,000 shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, except for any shares purchased by our “Affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (whose sales would be subject to limitations and restrictions described below). In addition, an aggregate of approximately 10,841,945 shares issued in connection with the BroadJump and Question Technologies acquisitions will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, except for shares received by Affiliates of such entities who may sell their shares in the manner stated under “—Rule 144” below; provided, however, that substantially all of such shares will be subject to the lock-up agreements described below. The remaining 9,313,503 shares of common stock held by existing stockholders were issued and sold by us in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and will be eligible for sale in the public market as described below.

 

Based upon the number of shares outstanding at March 31, 2004, an aggregate of approximately 16,254,799 shares of our common stock will be eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 701 beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus and an aggregate of approximately 3,830,473 shares of our common stock will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933 upon completion of this offering. However, all but 279,070 of such shares are subject to the lock-up agreements described below and will only become eligible for sale upon the expiration or termination of such agreements, generally 180 days after the date of this prospectus.

An aggregate of 19,876,378 shares outstanding as of March 31, 2004, representing over 98% of our outstanding shares without giving effect to the 5,000,000 shares of common stock offered pursuant to this offering, will be subject to “lock-up” agreements on the effective date of this offering. Our executive officers and directors and certain other existing stockholders have agreed with the underwriters not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of their shares for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated on behalf of the underwriters may, however, in its sole discretion and without notice, release all or any portion of the shares from the restrictions in these lock-up agreements. To the extent that any of our stockholders have not entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters, substantially all of these stockholders are subject to separate lock-up agreements with us, which agreements provide that these stockholders may not sell their shares for 180 days after the date of this prospectus. We have agreed with the underwriters not to release any of these company lock-ups without the prior consent of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated on behalf of the underwriters.

 

Rule 144

 

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, a person who has beneficially owned shares of our common stock for at least one year would be entitled to sell in “broker’s transactions” or to market makers, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

 

  ·   1% of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding (which will equal approximately 251,555 shares immediately after this offering); or

 

79


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
  ·   the average weekly trading volume in our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

 

  Sales   under Rule 144 are generally subject to the availability of current public information about us.

 

Rule 144(k)

 

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of us at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without having to comply with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice filing provisions of Rule 144. Therefore, unless otherwise restricted, “144(k) shares” may be sold immediately upon the completion of this offering.

 

Rule 701

 

Under Rule 701, certain of our employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors who purchase shares from us in connection with a compensatory stock or option plan or other written agreement before the effective date of this offering is entitled to sell shares 90 days after the effective date of this offering in reliance on Rule 144, without having to comply with the holding period and notice filing requirements of Rule 144 and, in the case of non-affiliates, without having to comply with the public information, volume limitation or notice filing provisions of Rule 144.

 

The SEC has indicated that Rule 701 will apply to typical stock options granted by an issuer before it becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 along with the shares acquired upon exercise of the options (including exercises after the date of this prospectus). Securities issued in reliance on Rule 701 are restricted securities and, subject to the contractual restrictions described above, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, may be sold by persons other than “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144) subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144 and by “affiliates” under Rule 144 without compliance with its one-year minimum holding period requirements.

 

Registration Rights

 

In addition, after this offering, the holders of approximately 16,261,892 shares of common stock will be entitled to certain rights with respect to registration of such shares under the Securities Act. Registration of such shares under the Securities Act would result in such shares, except for shares purchased by our affiliates, becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act immediately on the effectiveness of such registration. See “Description of Capital Stock—Registration Rights.”

 

Stock Plans

 

As of March 31, 2004, 3,439,746 shares of common stock were subject to outstanding options under our existing stock option plans, of which 1,141,374 were vested and exercisable. However, all of these shares are subject to the lock-up agreements described above. Immediately after the completion of this offering, we intend to file registration statements on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933 to register all of the shares of common stock issued or reserved for future issuance under our stock option plans and our employee stock purchase plan. After the effective dates of these registration statements on Form S-8, shares purchased upon exercise of options granted under our stock option plans and shares purchased under our employee stock purchase plan generally would be available for resale in the public market. On the date 180 days after the effective date of this offering, a total of approximately 1,478,051 shares of common stock subject to outstanding options will be vested and exercisable.

U. S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

 

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of our common stock and is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (which we refer to as the “Code”), Treasury regulations thereunder, existing rulings of the Internal Revenue Service (which we refer to as the “IRS”) and judicial decisions, all of which are subject to change. Any such change could apply retroactively and could adversely affect the consequences described below.

 

As used in this summary, a “U.S. Person” is:

 

  ·   an individual who is a citizen of the United States or who is resident in the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

 

  ·   a corporation that is organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof;

 

  ·   an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

 

  ·   a trust (1) that is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and is subject to the control of one or more United States persons as described in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, or (2) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

 

As used in this summary, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is any person who owns shares of our common stock and who is not a U.S. Person.

 

This summary does not discuss all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances or that may be relevant to certain holders that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (for example, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, dealers in securities, persons who hold shares as part of a straddle, hedging, constructive sale, or conversion transaction, persons who acquire shares through exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services, and U.S. Persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar). This summary does not address certain special rules that apply to Non-U.S. Holders that are “controlled foreign corporations,” “foreign personal holding companies,” “passive foreign investment companies” or corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax. Furthermore, this summary does not address any aspects of state, local or foreign taxation. This summary is limited to those persons that hold shares of our common stock as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. In the case of any Non-U.S. Holder who is an individual, the following discussion assumes that this individual was not formerly a United States citizen, and was not formerly a resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

If a partnership holds our common stock, then the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common stock, then you should consult your tax advisor.

 

THIS SUMMARY IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. POTENTIAL INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

 

Treatment of U.S. Holders

 

Dividends on Shares.    Any distribution of cash or property (other than our shares or warrants to acquire our shares) received by a U.S. Holder with respect to shares of our common stock (including a payment received in a redemption that does not qualify as an “exchange” under Section 302(b) of the Code) will constitute a “dividend” for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of our accumulated or current earnings and profits. Any such

 

81


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

distributions that exceed our current or accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in his common shares and any distribution in excess of such tax basis would give rise to capital gain. Any dividend received by a U.S. Holder that is an individual is currently subject to U.S. federal income tax at a maximum rate of 15%, provided that certain holding period requirements are met. Any dividend received by a U.S. Holder that is itself a corporation may be eligible for a dividends-received deduction under Section 243 of the Code. The rate of the dividends-received deduction is generally 70%. The dividends-received deduction is subject to certain limitations. For example, the deduction may not be available if the corporate U.S. Holder does not satisfy certain holding period requirements with respect to its shares or if the shares are “debt-financed portfolio stock.”

 

Sale of Shares.    Upon a sale of our common stock (including a redemption that qualifies as an “exchange” under Section 302(b) of the Code), a U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such shares. Any gain or loss recognized on a sale of shares of common stock by a U.S. Holder will be a capital gain or loss. Any such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the shares for more than one year at the time of disposition. Any long-term capital gain recognized upon a sale of shares of common stock by a U.S. Holder that is an individual is currently subject to U.S. federal income tax at a maximum rate of 15%. Certain limitations apply to the deductibility of capital losses for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting.    In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends in respect of the shares, or the proceeds received on the sale, exchange, or redemption of shares, paid to U.S. Holders other than certain exempt recipients (such as corporations). Any dividend payment made by us to a U.S. Holder will be subject to backup withholding (at a rate of 28%), unless the U.S. Holder provides to us a certification, under penalties of perjury, of the U.S. Holder’s taxpayer identification number, or the U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. The requisite certification may be made on an IRS Form W-9. Amounts withheld from a U.S. Holder under the backup withholding rules are generally allowable as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability (if any) of the U.S. Holder, and the U.S. Holder may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld which exceed the U.S. Holder’s actual U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.

 

Treatment of Non-U.S. Holders

 

Dividends on Shares.    A dividend received by a Non-U.S. Holder (including a payment received in a redemption that does not qualify as an “exchange” under Section 302(b) of the Code) on shares of our common stock will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty), unless the dividend income is effectively connected with a United States trade or business conducted by the Non-U.S. Holder (and the Non-U.S. Holder provides us with a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI certifying such fact). This withholding applies even if the Non-U.S. Holder has furnished the certification required to avoid backup withholding (see “— Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” above) with respect to the dividend. Any dividend that is effectively connected with a United States trade or business conducted by the Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at normal graduated rates (and if the Non-U.S. Holder is a corporation, the dividend may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax). In order to claim treaty benefits (such as a reduction in the rate of U.S. withholding tax), the Non-U.S. Holder must deliver to us a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY prior to the dividend payment. If the Non-U.S. Holder is an entity that is classified for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a partnership, then unless this partnership has entered into a withholding agreement with the IRS, the partnership will be required, in addition to providing an IRS Form W-8IMY, to attach an appropriate certification by each partner, and to attach a statement allocating the dividend income among the various partners.

 

If you are eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty, then you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Sale of Shares.    Any gain or loss recognized by a Non-U.S. Holder upon a sale of shares (including a redemption that qualifies as an “exchange” under Section 302(b) of the Code) will be a capital gain or loss. Any such capital gain will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, unless: (1) the gain is effectively connected with a United States trade or business conducted by the Non-U.S. Holder; (2) the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale and certain other conditions are met; or (3) we are, or have been during certain periods preceding the disposition, a “United States real property holding corporation” and either our shares are not regularly traded on an established securities market or you have owned more than 5% of our common shares at any time during a specified period. If you are described in clause (1), then you will be subject to tax on the gain derived from the sale under regular graduated United States federal income tax rates and, if you are a foreign corporation, you may also be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% of your effectively connected earnings and profits or at such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. If you are described in clause (2), then you will be subject to a flat 30% tax on gain derived from the sale, which may be offset by United States source capital losses (even though you are not considered a resident of the United States). We do not believe we are a “United States real property holding corporation,” and we do not expect to ever become one.

 

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting.    We must report annually to the IRS and to each Non-U.S. Holder the amount of dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder and the tax withheld (if any). This information may also be made available to the tax authorities in the Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence. A Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to backup withholding on dividends on our shares if the owner of the shares certifies under penalties of perjury that it is not a U.S. Person (such certification may be made on an IRS Form W-8BEN), or otherwise establishes an exemption. If a Non-U.S. Holder sells shares through a U.S. office of a U.S. or foreign broker, the payment of the sale proceeds by the broker will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding, unless the owner of the shares provides the certification described above (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a U.S. person) or otherwise establishes an exemption. If a Non-U.S. Holder sells shares through a foreign office of a broker, backup withholding is not required. Information reporting is required if (i) the broker does not have documentary evidence that the holder is not a U.S. Person, and (ii) the broker is a U.S. Person or has certain other connections to the United States.

 

Amounts withheld from a Non-U.S. Holder under the backup withholding rules are generally allowable as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability (if any) of the Non-U.S. Holder, and the Non-U.S. Holder may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld which exceed the Non-U.S. Holder’s actual U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.

 

U.S. Estate Tax.    Any shares of our common stock that are held by an individual who is not a citizen of the United States and who is not domiciled in the United States at the time of his or her death generally will be treated as United States situs assets for U.S. federal estate tax purposes and will be subject to U.S. federal estate tax, except as may otherwise be provided by an applicable estate tax treaty between the United States and the decedent’s country of residence.

Morgan Securities Inc., Thomas Weisel Partners LLC, Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co., Inc., Needham & Company, Inc. and America’s Growth Capital, LLC are acting as representatives, have severally agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell to them, the number of shares indicated below:

The underwriters and the representatives are collectively referred to as the “underwriters” and the “representatives,” respectively. The underwriters are offering the shares subject to their acceptance of the shares from us and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus if any such shares are taken. However, the underwriters are not required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriters’ over-allotment option described below.

 

The underwriters initially propose to offer part of the shares of our common stock directly to the public at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus and part to securities dealers at a price that represents a concession not in excess of $            a share under the public offering price. No underwriter may allow, and no dealer may reallow, any concession to other underwriters or to certain dealers. After the initial offering of the shares of our common stock, the offering price and other selling terms may from time to time be varied by the representatives of the underwriters.

 

We have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to an aggregate of 750,000 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase approximately the same percentage of the additional shares of common stock as the number listed next to such underwriter’s name in the preceding table bears to the total number of shares of common stock set forth next to the names of all underwriters in the preceding table. If the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised in full, the total price to the public would be $            , the total underwriters’ discounts and commissions would be $             and the total proceeds to us would be $            .

 

The underwriters have informed us that they do not intend sales to discretionary accounts to exceed five percent of the total number of shares of common stock offered by them.

 

We, our directors and executive officers and certain other of our stockholders have each agreed that, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. on behalf of the underwriters, during the period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus, we will not, directly or indirectly:

 

  ·   offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock; or

 

84


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
  ·   enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock;

 

whether any such transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The restrictions described in this paragraph do not apply to:

 

  ·   the sale to the underwriters of the shares of common stock described in this prospectus;

 

  ·   the issuance by us of shares of common stock upon the exercise of an option or a warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding on the date of this prospectus and reflected in this prospectus;

 

  ·   the issuance of shares of common stock or options to purchase shares of common stock pursuant to our employee benefit plans as in existence on the date of the prospectus and consistent with past practices;

 

  ·   transactions by any person other than us relating to shares of common stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the offering of common stock contemplated by this prospectus;

 

  ·   transfers of shares as a gift or charitable contribution, or by will or intestacy;

 

  ·   transfers of shares to any trust the sole beneficiaries of which are the transferor and/or its immediate family members; or

 

  ·   transfers to certain entities or persons affiliated with the stockholders;

 

provided that in the case of each of the last three transactions, each donee, distributee, transferee and recipient agrees to be subject to the restrictions described in this paragraph, no filing under the Securities Act is required in connection with these transactions, other than a filing made after the expiration of the 180-day period, and no transaction includes a disposition for value.

 

Our estimated offering expenses, in addition to the underwriting discounts and commissions, are approximately $1.5 million, which includes legal, accounting and printing costs and various other fees associated with registration and listing of our common stock.

 

The following table shows the underwriting discounts and commissions that we and the selling stockholder are to pay to the underwriters in connection with this offering. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of our common stock. A partial exercise of the over-allotment option will be allocated first to the selling stockholder.

In order to facilitate the offering of the common stock, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common stock. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under the over-allotment option. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the over-allotment option or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also sell shares in excess of the over-allotment option, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are convinced that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. In addition, to stabilize

 

85


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

the price of our common stock, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of common stock in the open market. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing our common stock in the offering, if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed shares of our common stock to cover syndicate short positions or to stabilize the price of our common stock above independent levels. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the common stock above independent market levels. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time.

 

Our common stock has been approved for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “MOTV.”

 

We and the underwriters have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. are limited partners of Accel VII L.P., Austin Ventures VI, L.P. and Austin Ventures VII, L.P. In connection with these limited partnership interests, affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. indirectly own, as of March 31, 2004, approximately 0.5% of our common stock. In addition, affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. directly own, as of March 31, 2004, approximately 0.1% of our common stock. Pursuant to our proposed use of the net proceeds from this offering, Austin Ventures VII, L.P. will receive approximately $11.8 million of such net proceeds upon our repayment of indebtedness. J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and its affiliates will have no ability to direct or to control the timing of the distribution of these proceeds by Austin Ventures VII, L.P.

 

Pricing of the Offering

 

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the shares of common stock. The initial public offering price for the shares will be determined by negotiations between us and the representatives. Among the factors to considered in determining the initial public offering price will be our future prospects and those of our industry in general, our sales, earnings and other financial and operating information in recent periods, the price-earnings ratios, price-sales ratios, market prices of securities and financial and operating information of companies engaged in activities similar to ours. The estimated initial public offering price range set forth on the cover page of this preliminary prospectus is subject to change as a result of market conditions and other factors.

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

The validity of the issuance of our shares of common stock offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Baker Botts L.L.P., Dallas, Texas. Legal matters relating to this offering will be passed upon for the underwriters by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, Austin, Texas.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Motive, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Motive, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2002 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Motive, Inc. at December 31, 2002 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and intangible assets upon the required adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002.

 

As described in Note 18, the Company has restated its license fees revenue and loss on investment for the year ended December 31, 2002 and restated its cost of license fees revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.    The Company

 

Motive, Inc. (the “Company” or “Motive”), formerly Motive Communications, Inc., was incorporated in Delaware on April 25, 1997. The Company is a leading provider of service management software that enables companies to build management and service directly into their customer-facing products and services, optimizing time and reducing waste from labor-intensive management processes. The Company currently serves the following markets: enterprise service providers, hardware manufacturers, software companies, telecommunications and cable companies and the global 2000. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Interim Financial Information

 

The financial information as of March 31, 2004 and for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004 is unaudited but includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that in the opinion of management is necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year of 2004 or any future period.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

 

For the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency has been determined to be the local currency, and therefore, assets and liabilities are translated at period end exchange rates, and income statement items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Such translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency denominated transactions are included in other income (expense) and are not significant.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments

 

Cash equivalents consist of cash deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. Short-term investments as of December 31, 2002 consist primarily of certificates of deposit that have remaining maturities within one year of the applicable reporting period for all periods presented. Realized gains and losses are computed based on the specific identification method and were not significant for the years presented.

 

Investments in securities are classified as available-for-sale and are presented at estimated fair market value with any unrealized gains or losses included in other comprehensive income (loss). Fair market values are based on quoted market prices. The Company did not have any unrealized gains or losses as of December 31, 2002 or 2003, or as of March 31, 2004.

 

The Company periodically analyzes its short-term investments for impairments considered to be other than temporary. In performing this analysis, the Company evaluates whether general market conditions or information pertaining to the specific investment’s industry, or that individual company, indicates that an other than temporary

decline in value has occurred. If so, the Company considers specific factors, including the financial condition and near-term prospect of each investment, any specific events that may affect the investee company, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. As a result of these reviews, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $9.5 million during 2002 with respect to shares of Peregrine that had been received in connection with a software arrangement. In August 2002, we received $1.6 million in cash from CIBC pursuant to the termination and settlement of an agreement in connection with the attempted sale of a portion of the Peregrine shares. We recorded the receipt of such cash as a recovery of impairment on investment. As of December 31, 2002 and 2003, the Company’s net investment in securities was zero. The Company did not have any short-term investments as of December 31, 2003 or as of March 31, 2004.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company extends credit to its customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at their outstanding principal balances, adjusted by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company considers the length of time receivable balances have been outstanding, historical write-off experience, current economic conditions and customer-specific information. When the Company ultimately concludes that a receivable is uncollectible, the balance is charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The following table summarizes the changes in allowance for doubtful accounts for trade receivables (in thousands):

Concentration of Credit Risks and Significant Customers

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are placed with high-credit, quality financial institutions and issuers. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. Estimated credit losses are provided for in the financial statements and historically have been within management’s expectations.

 

Sales to individual customers constituting 10% or more of total revenue for each year were as follows:

 

     2001

    2002

    2003

 

Customer No. 1

   21 %   %   %

Customer No. 2

   18 %   19 %    

Customer No. 3

           11 %

 

One customer constituted 15% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and no customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2004.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Two of our customers at December 31, 2001, five of our customers at December 31, 2002, five of our customers at December 31, 2003 and three of our customers at March 31, 2004 each accounted for more than 10% of our total accounts receivable. Collectively, these customers represented approximately 83% of the December 31, 2001 accounts receivable balance, 82% of the December 31, 2002 accounts receivable balance, 67% of the December 31, 2003 accounts receivable balance and 53% of the March 31, 2004 accounts receivable balance.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and payables, accrued expenses and notes payable, approximate fair values. The values of the Company’s debt instruments approximate their carrying values based on rates currently available to the Company.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash relates to the minimum cash balance the Company must maintain with a bank in connection with its term loans and line of credit (see Note 5). This restriction was removed during the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the assets, which are generally three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the remaining term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the improvements.

 

Acquisitions

 

All of the Company’s business combinations have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The Company includes the results of operations of the acquired business from the acquisition date. Net assets of the companies acquired are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired is included in goodwill in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amounts allocated to in-process research and development are expensed in the period in which the acquisition is consummated.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, in June 2001. Pursuant to SFAS No. 141, assembled workforce no longer meets the criteria to be to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. As such, the Company has reclassified assembled workforce of $212,093, net of amortization and impairment charges, to goodwill. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 and no longer amortizes its goodwill. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company periodically assesses its intangible assets, including goodwill, for indicators of impairment.

 

Prior to January 1, 2002, intangible assets related to the Ventix acquisition (see Note 11) were being amortized using the straight-line method over a two-year period for acquired technology and a three-year period for workforce and goodwill. Acquired technology was fully amortized as of December 31, 2002. In January

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

2003, the Company acquired BroadJump, Inc. and recorded certain intangibles, including acquired technology, customer contractual relationships, order backlog and non-competition agreements. Amounts allocated to acquired technology, customer contractual relationships, and order backlog, are being amortized over the respective assets’ estimated useful lives of four to five years using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which their economic benefits are consumed based upon estimated contributions to discounted cash flows during the period. Amounts allocated to non-compete agreements are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years using the straight line method. The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its identifiable intangible assets, taking into consideration any events or circumstances which might result in a diminished fair value or revised useful life.

 

Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of the following (in thousands):

     8,777

   $ (22,495 )
    


Adjusted loss per share

   $ (4.88 )
    


 

Estimated annual amortization expense of goodwill and other intangible assets for calendar years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 is $4,096,000, $4,809,000, $5,255,000, $6,082,000 and $256,000, respectively.

 

The Company assesses whether goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are impaired on an annual basis. Upon determining the existence of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles impairment, the Company measures that impairment based on the amount by which the book value of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles exceeds its fair value. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole, as if that reporting unit had just been acquired and the purchase price were being initially allocated. Additional impairment

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

assessments may be performed on an interim basis if the Company encounters events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that, more likely than not, the book value of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangibles has been impaired.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, which the Company adopted effective January 1, 2002. Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable.

 

Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company evaluated its long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.

 

In October 2001, in connection with a corporate restructuring and employee terminations as discussed in Note 15, the long-lived asset related to the workforce acquired in the Ventix acquisition was deemed to be impaired. Therefore, this asset was written down to its fair value. As a result, an impairment loss of approximately $452,000 was included in amortization of goodwill and other intangibles on the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2001.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for 2001, 2002 and 2003 were $196,000, $55,000 and $174,000, respectively, and were $10,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The Company makes disclosures regarding employee stock-based compensation using the fair value method in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. The Company has calculated the fair value of options granted and has determined the pro forma impact on net income (loss). The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 96-18, Accounting for Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.

 

For the purpose of pro forma disclosures required by SFAS No. 123, the estimated fair value of the options is expensed over the options’ vesting periods. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock based compensation (in thousands, except per share data):

Revenue Recognition

 

License fees revenue is comprised of fees for term and perpetual licenses of the Company’s software. To date, the Company has not entered into an arrangement solely for the license of products and, therefore, the Company has not demonstrated vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for the license element. The Company (1) recognizes revenue for the fees associated with a perpetual license or a term license with VSOE for maintenance using the residual method in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract for each element, or (2) recognizes revenue for the fees associated with a term license without VSOE for maintenance ratably over the term of the agreement, generally one to three years. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company did not have VSOE to determine fair value of maintenance for term licenses. As a result, license fees revenue also includes maintenance for term licenses entered into prior to the establishment of VSOE of maintenance for term licenses. Under the residual method, the arrangement fee is first allocated to the undelivered elements based upon their VSOE of fair value; the remaining arrangement fee, including any discount, is allocated to the delivered element. Therefore, if and when the Company offers discounts on professional services or other elements, those discounts are applied to the license portion of the arrangement. License fees revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no unfulfilled obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable.

 

If the fee for the license has any payment terms that are in excess of the Company’s normal payment terms, the fee is considered not to be fixed or determinable. In this scenario, the amount of revenue recognized for perpetual license arrangements and term license arrangements with VSOE for maintenance is limited to the amount currently due from the customer. In such arrangements, license fees are recognized as license fees revenue as the related amounts become due. Because each such arrangement is individually negotiated, the payment schedule and resulting revenue recognition associated with each agreement can vary. The amount of revenue recognized for term license arrangements without VSOE for maintenance is limited to the lesser of the amount due from the customer during each reporting period and a ratable portion of the total unallocated arrangement fee. In most cases, this means that both license fees and maintenance associated with the underlying arrangement are recognized as license fees revenue ratably over the term of the contract, which generally tends to defer revenue recognition over longer periods of time. To the extent that sufficient amounts are not due from the customer to cover the ratable revenue recognition for an applicable period, the amount of revenue recognized is limited to the amount currently due.

 

If an arrangement includes a right of acceptance or a right to cancel, revenue is recognized when acceptance is received or the right to cancel has expired.

 

License fees revenue from arrangements with resellers involving nonrefundable fixed minimum license fees are recognized when payment becomes due from the customer and delivery of the product has occurred, assuming no significant vendor obligations remain. Royalties related to such reseller arrangements in excess of the fixed minimum amounts are recognized as revenue when such amounts are reported to the Company. One of the Company’s reseller arrangements is with Mercury Interactive and such agreement specifies nonrefundable fixed minimum license fees of $15 million which was paid in 2003 and 2004.

 

Services revenue is comprised of revenue from professional services, such as consulting services, maintenance and support, and hosting and managed services. Consulting services include a range of services including installation, implementation and building of non-complex interfaces for the customer’s specific application. Maintenance and support agreements provide for technical support of the Company’s software products and include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Hosting and managed services involve remote management of solutions for which the Company receives fees. Generally, the

Company has determined that the service elements of its software arrangements are not essential to the functionality of the software. The Company has also determined that its professional services (1) are available from other vendors, (2) do not involve a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, and (3) qualify for separate accounting as the Company has sufficient experience in providing such services.

 

VSOE of fair value of services in multiple element arrangements is based upon rates for consulting and training services and annual subscription fees for pre-packaged technical support services which the Company has charged in stand-alone contracts for services. For perpetual licensing arrangements and term licensing arrangements with VSOE for maintenance, in accordance with paragraph 57 of SOP 97-2, VSOE of fair value for maintenance is determined by reference to the price the customer has paid or will be required to pay when maintenance is sold separately. VSOE of fair value for maintenance contracts under perpetual license arrangements and term license arrangements with VSOE for maintenance is based upon the Company’s pricing practice that maintenance renewal rates are based upon a percentage of the quoted license fees in the related contract. Each contract typically offers additional renewal periods at a stated price or rate. Consulting and training services are recognized as services revenue as the related consulting or training services are performed and payments become due. Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis as services revenue over the life of the related agreement, which is typically one year. Hosting and managed services revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis as services revenue over the life of the related agreement, which typically ranges from one month to one year.

 

In January 2003, the Company acquired deferred revenue with a fair value of approximately $40.1 million as a result of the BroadJump acquisition. The acquired deferred revenue relates to the remaining contractual obligations under the BroadJump customer software arrangements such as continuing onsite support, maintenance, hosting and customer directed enhancements. The Company views customer care as a vital component of the software arrangements. BroadJump, and now the Company, have committed to providing dedicated resources to ensure customer satisfaction and obtain customer input on future product roadmaps. The amount recorded as deferred revenue represents the estimated fair value of future legal performance obligations as described in EITF No. 01-3, based on risk-adjusted cash flows and historical costs expended.

 

This deferred revenue is being recognized ratably as services revenue acquired in business combinations on the accompanying statements of operations over the remaining life of the individual software arrangements. Therefore, the corresponding revenue will continue to decline on a quarterly basis through 2006 when the remaining contractual obligations under the BroadJump software arrangements expire. Specifically, approximately 50% of the acquired contracts with future legal obligations had termination dates that occured by the end of 2003. Accordingly over 50% of the deferred revenue related to those contracts was recognized in 2003.

 

Accounts receivable include amounts due from customers for which revenue has been recognized. Deferred revenue includes amounts received from customers for which revenue has not been recognized.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed in the period incurred. SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs related to software development incurred between completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Through March 31, 2004, all of the Company’s software development costs have been expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Loss Per Share

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period less common shares subject to repurchase. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock, outstanding stock options, outstanding warrants to purchase common stock and common stock subject to repurchase from the calculation of diluted loss per common share because all such securities are antidilutive for all applicable periods presented. As a result, the Company’s basic and diluted loss per share are identical for the periods presented. The total number of shares excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share, prior to application of the treasury stock method for options, was 6,173,586, 7,011,743, 13,699,204, and 14,475,442 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003 and the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

Under the provision of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 98, common shares issued for nominal consideration, if any, would be included in the per share calculations as if they were outstanding for all periods presented. No common shares have been issued for nominal consideration.

Segments

 

The Company applies SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information and considers its business activities to constitute a single business segment, service management software.

 

Product Warranties

 

The Company offers warranties to its customers, requiring that the Company replace defective products within a specified time period from the date of sale. The Company records warranty costs as incurred and historically such costs have not been significant.

 

Software License Indemnifications

 

FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, requires that the Company recognize the fair value for certain guarantee and indemnification arrangements issued or modified by the Company after December 31, 2002. When the Company determines that a loss is probable, the estimable loss must be recognized as it relates to applicable guarantees and indemnifications. Some of the software licenses granted by the Company contain provisions that indemnify customers of the Company’s software from damages and costs resulting from claims alleging that the Company’s software infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. The Company records resulting costs as incurred and historically such costs have not been significant. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a liability related to these indemnification provisions.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In November 2002, the FASB reached a consensus on EITF No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. EITF 00-21 sets out criteria for whether revenue can be recognized separately from other deliverables in a multiple deliverable arrangement. The criteria considers whether the delivered item has stand-alone value to the customer, whether the fair value of the delivered item can be reliably determined and the rights of returns for the delivered item. EITF 00-21 applies to revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods after June 15, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 is effective immediately for all new variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 requires that certain financial instruments that are

 

F-15

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

settled in cash, including certain types of mandatorily redeemable securities, be classified as liabilities rather than as equity or temporary equity. SFAS No. 150 becomes effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances to conform to current year presentation.

 

In accordance with EITF No. 01-14, Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred, companies are required to characterize customer reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses as revenue in the statement of operations. As a result of the adoption of EITF 01-14, the Company’s services revenue and cost of services revenue for 2001 was increased by approximately $655,000 for out-of-pocket expenses. The adoption of EITF 01-14 had no effect on net loss as it increased both revenue and expenses.

Borrowings on the line of credit are subject to a borrowing base limitation of 80% of eligible accounts receivable. All borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. These term loans and the line of credit include financial covenants on the Company’s part to maintain (a) the Company’s primary cash accounts with the bank and maintain a minimum cash balance of at least $15 million and (b) tangible net worth of not less than one dollar at the end of each fiscal quarter. The term loans and line of credit define tangible net worth to include redeemable convertible preferred stock. In addition, the term loans and the line of credit restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends, effect mergers or acquisitions or maintain an account of greater than $2.0 million at another institution without the bank’s prior approval. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the minimum cash balance requirement was replaced with a requirement to maintain a ratio of (i) cash, cash

equivalents and eligible accounts receivable to (ii) current liabilities plus all indebtedness owed to the bank less deferred revenue, of at least 1.30 to 1.00. At March 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with such covenants and restrictions.

 

In October 2002, the Company issued senior subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $12,500,000, bearing interest at 11% annually, to certain of its stockholders. The senior subordinated promissory notes are recorded on the accompanying balance sheet net of issuance costs of approximately $85,000 and discount resulting from issuance of warrants (See Note 8). The promissory notes mature and any amounts outstanding are due upon the earlier of (1) October 11, 2007, (2) the closing of a change in control or (3) when, upon or after the occurrence of an event of default, such amounts are declared due and payable by the investors or made automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of the notes. As of March 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with covenants and restrictions related to the senior subordinated promissory notes.

 

Total interest expense incurred during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003 was approximately $535,000, $1,557,000 and $2,533,000, respectively, and was $596,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

The Company’s provision for income taxes includes withholdings on income generated in foreign countries.

 

As of December 31, 2003, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $88,491,000 and research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $2,605,000 and a foreign tax credit carryforward of approximately $1,742,000. The net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards will expire beginning in 2012, if not utilized. The foreign tax credit carryforward will begin to expire in varying amounts between 2007 and 2008, if not utilized.

 

Utilization of the net operating losses and tax credits may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and research and development credits before utilization.

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

The Company has established a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax assets due to uncertainties regarding the realization of deferred tax assets based on the Company’s lack of earnings history. During the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, the valuation allowance increased by approximately $11,280,000, $1,612,000 and $6,590,000, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2003, the valuation allowance includes approximately $9,155,000 related to the acquisition of BroadJump, Inc.’s net deferred tax assets. The initial recognition of these acquired deferred tax asset items will first reduce goodwill, next other non-current intangible assets of the acquired entity, and then become a benefit to income taxes.

 

The exercise of certain Company stock options results in compensation which is includable in the taxable income of the exercising option holder and deductible by the Company for federal and state income tax purposes. Such compensation results from increases in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock subsequent

to the date of grant of the exercised stock options and, in accordance with APB No. 25, such compensation is not recognized as an expense for financial accounting purposes; however, the related tax benefits are re corded as an increase to additional paid-in capital.

 

The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the expected tax expense (benefit) amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to income before income taxes as a result of the following:

The Company leases its facilities and sales offices under various operating lease agreements which expire through 2012. Rental expense was approximately $3,744,000, $3,709,000 and $4,265,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively and was $1,048,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Imputed dividends accrue from the Redemption Commencement Date to the applicable redemption date. Declared but unpaid dividends are due upon redemption.

 

The holders of the Series A, B, C, D-1, D-2, D-3, E-1, E-2, F-1, F-2, and F-3 will be entitled to participate in dividends on common stock, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, based on the greater of the per annum rate of $.168, $.876, $2.116, $.452, $1.12, $1.692, $1.284, $1.284, $.192, $.908, and $1.412 for Series A, B, C, D-1, D-2, D-3, E-1, E-2, F-1, F-2, and F-3, respectively, or the amount equal to dividends paid on any other outstanding shares of the Company.

In addition to the events above, if consideration other than cash is received by the Company, the value of such consideration will be deemed its fair market value. If the Company’s legally available assets are insufficient to satisfy the liquidation preferences, funds and assets will be distributed ratably in proportion to the liquidation preference of the Series A, B, C, D-1, D-2, D-3, E-1, E-2, F-1, F-2, and F-3.

 

Each share of preferred stock has voting rights equal to the number of shares of common stock into which it is convertible.

Common Stock and Stock Option Plan

 

At March 31, 2004, 9,833,392 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. Under the Company’s 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “Plan”), options to purchase up to 8,254,410 shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted. The Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options or nonqualified options to employees, officers and directors, and consultants of the Company. Options under the Plan may be granted at prices less than, equal to, or greater than the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors, provided that the exercise price of any incentive stock options granted to a participant who owns more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding capital stock must be equal to at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The maximum term of options granted under the Plan is ten years from the date of grant (five years in the case of a participant who owns more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding capital stock). Options under the Plan generally vest 20% on the first anniversary date from the date of grant and 5% quarterly thereafter. Options under the Plan are exercisable immediately and subject to repurchase at the original exercise price, until fully vested. The Plan allows for full recourse loans to certain

employees of the Company for purposes of exercising stock options. The interest rate and terms of repayment are determined by the Plan administrator. At December 31, 2001, the Company had $4,832 outstanding from an officer of the Company under such loans. The loan had been paid in full at December 31, 2002. See Note 9.

 

In April 2000 the Company issued 416,667 shares of common stock to Peregrine Systems in exchange for a cash purchase price of $26.44 per share, which the Company deemed to equal the then current fair value of its common stock. In April 2000 the Company also entered into a customer relationship with Peregrine Systems, pursuant to which Peregrine Systems was obligated to pay the Company minimum license fees. In September 2002, Peregrine Systems declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy and as part of its Plan of Reorganization, approved in August 2003, and in partial satisfaction of amounts due to the Company in respect of the unpaid license fees, Peregrine Systems returned to the Company the 416,667 shares of Company common stock, which the Company retired.

 

At December 31, 2002 and 2003 and March 31, 2004, the Company had 2,554,460, 3,650,390 and 3,506,774 shares of Common Stock, respectively, reserved for issuance upon exercise of stock options.

 

The Company recorded no deferred stock compensation during 2001. In 2002, the Company recorded deferred stock compensation of $193,000 in conjunction with the acceleration of vesting periods for stock options granted to certain employees. This amount represents the difference between the deemed fair value of stock option grants for 65,781 shares of common stock on the date of grant, which ranged from $0.24 to $2.40 per share, and the deemed fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of modification, $5.00 per share. In 2003, the Company recorded deferred stock compensation of $4,782,000 in connection with stock options granted to employees and directors of the Company. This amount represents the difference between the exercise price of stock option grants for 2,601,187 shares of common stock and the deemed fair value of the Company’s common stock at the time of such grants, which ranged from $5.00 to $8.00 per share and $5.00 to $12.00 per share, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded deferred stock compensation of $102,000 in conjunction with the acceleration of vesting periods for stock options granted to certain employees. This amount represents the difference between the deemed fair value of stock option grants for 22,197 shares of common stock on the date of grant, which ranged from $0.24 to $2.40 per share, and the deemed fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of modification, $5.00 per share. The aforementioned amounts are being amortized over the vesting periods of the applicable options, resulting in amortization of $2.3 million, $2.1 million and $1.2 million in 2001, 2002, and 2003, respectively, and $851,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

On June 15, 2001, the Company cancelled 133,720 stock options previously granted to those nonexecutive management employees who voluntarily participated in the Company’s stock option exchange program. In return, those employees who participated in the program were granted an aggregate of 86,256 new options on January 25, 2002, at least six months and a day subsequent to the cancellation date. The exercise price of these new options was equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The program did not result in any additional compensation charges or variable plan accounting.

 

On July 27, 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution whereby certain executives were allowed to cancel 287,500 previously granted options and in return new options were granted at a Board of Directors meeting, which occurred at least six months and a day subsequent to the cancellation date. On January 31, 2002, the Company issued 118,750 stock options with an exercise price of $12.00 per share, which was equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, and issued 168,750 options with an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The Company recorded deferred stock compensation of $1,519,000 in connection with the grant of in-the-money options. This amount represents the difference between the exercise price of the stock option grant for 168,750 shares of common stock and the deemed fair value of the Company’s common stock at the time of the grant, which was $3.00 and $12.00, respectively.

On September 27, 2002, the Company cancelled 992,405 stock options previously granted to officers and employees who voluntarily participated in the Company’s stock option exchange program. In return, those employees who participated in the program were granted an aggregate of 852,668 new options on March 31, 2003, at least six months and a day subsequent to the cancellation date. The exercise price of these new options was equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The program did not result in any additional compensation charges or variable plan accounting.

 

Pro forma information regarding net loss is required by SFAS No. 123 and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of that Statement. The impact of the pro forma results may not be representative of compensation expense in future years. Through December 31, 2002, the Company estimated the minimum value for employee stock options at the date of the grant using the minimum value option pricing model. Subsequent to that date, the Company used the Black-Scholes method to estimate the fair value of employee stock options.

 

In applying the minimum value option pricing model and the Black Scholes method, the Company used the deemed fair value of the Company’s stock along with the following assumptions:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

The Company accounted for the Ventix acquisition using the purchase method of accounting and Ventix has been included in the results of operations from the date of the acquisition. The following table presents the allocation of the purchase price, which includes approximately $173,000 in acquisition costs (in thousands):

 

In-process research and development

     $ 28,963
    

 

Goodwill and other intangibles were being amortized over their estimated useful lives of two to three years for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001. As of January 1, 2002, workforce was reclassified to goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 141. For the year ended December 31, 2002, goodwill is no longer being amortized, but is subject to an annual impairment test. In-process research and development was expensed in the first quarter of 2000. Total amortization expense, including the write-off of acquired in-process research and development, for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $8.5 million. Total amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $9.4 million, including a $452,000 write-down of the workforce asset as it was deemed to be impaired as a result of a corporate restructuring that took place in October 2001. Total amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 is $13,000 and is related to acquired technology which as of December 31, 2002 is fully amortized.

 

The asset impairment recorded during 2001 relates to the impairment of acquired workforce. The acquired workforce was impaired by approximately $452,000 as a result of the termination of 30 former employees of Ventix in connection with a business restructuring (see Note 15).

 

12.    Acquisition of Certain Assets from Question Technologies, Inc.

 

In November 2001, the Company acquired certain of the assets of Question Technologies, Inc. in exchange for 1,293,860 shares of capital stock. The following table presents the capital stock by class of security issued (in thousands except share information):

As disclosed above, a portion of the purchase price was allocated to in-process research and development. The resulting in-process research and development was expensed at the time of purchase because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. The amount was included in the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles on the income statement for the year ended December 31, 2001.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Exit costs associated with facility lease commitments relate to lease obligations for excess office space located in Austin, Texas that the Company has vacated under an approved facilities exit plan. The total lease commitments include the remaining lease liabilities and brokerage commissions, offset by estimated sublease income. The estimated costs of vacating this leased facility, including estimated costs to sublease and sublease income, were based on market information and trend analysis as estimated by the Company and its brokers. It is reasonably possible that actual results could differ from these estimates in the near term, and such differences would result in adjustments to the purchase price allocation and, ultimately, the amount allocated to goodwill. The maximum lease commitment of such vacated property is four years from the acquisition date.

 

Asset impairment charges relate to fixed assets and leasehold improvements. These fixed assets were impaired as a result of the Company’s decision to vacate the prior BroadJump office space and move its operations to the Company’s existing headquarters facility in Austin, Texas.

 

Severance and related costs include severance, payroll taxes and outplacement benefits for certain BroadJump employees impacted by the approved plan of termination. Approximately 75 BroadJump employees were severed from the professional services, sales, marketing, development and general and administrative organizations in all geographies.

 

Contract commitment exit costs relate to contractual commitments for building security and phone system maintenance that have no economic benefit to the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Asset impairments relate to the impairment of certain fixed assets. These fixed assets were impaired as a result of the Company’s decision to align its infrastructure with that of the newly acquired BroadJump as well as current and future headcount projections.

 

Severance and related costs and other restructuring costs include one-time termination benefits to involuntarily terminated employees for services previously rendered. The Company severed approximately 25 employees in positions throughout the professional services, sales, marketing, development and general and administrative organizations in all geographies.

 

14.    Write Off of Prepaid Stock Offering Costs

 

In March 2001, the Company withdrew its Form S-1 Registration Statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission due to weak equity market conditions. As a result, approximately $1.4 million of prepaid stock offering costs were written off in March 2001.

 

15.    Business Restructuring Charge

 

During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company initiated a restructuring program to conform its expense and revenue levels to better position the Company for growth and profitability in the marketplace. The Company incurred a non-recurring charge of approximately $1.4 million related to severance and other employee termination benefits related to a reduction in workforce in October 2001 as a result of this restructuring. The reduction in workforce consisted of approximately 85 employees at all levels within the Company. As of December 31, 2001, approximately $180,000 of severance costs remained unpaid and was included in accrued liabilities. Such amount was paid in full as of December 31, 2002.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of BroadJump, Inc. as of December 31, 2001 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 BroadJump, Inc. at December 31, 2001 and 2002, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

BROADJUMP, INC.

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

December 31, 2002

 

1.    Organization

 

BroadJump, Inc. (the “Company”) is a global provider of broadband service management software products and services, a new category of Internet solutions designed to enable broadband service providers to more efficiently deploy new broadband services, provide customer support and technical support, sustain online customer relationships, roll out new service offerings, increase returns on their Internet-related investments and capitalize on Internet business opportunities. The Company was incorporated in Texas on December 21, 1998.

 

2.    Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, BroadJump Holdings, Inc., which had eight wholly owned subsidiaries, BroadJump Canada, Inc., BroadJump U.K. Ltd., BroadJump Australia Pty. Ltd., BroadJump Spain, S.L., BroadJump Korea, LLC, BroadJump Japan, K.K., BroadJump Holdings, Inc.–Hong Kong Representative Office and BroadJump Holdings, Inc.–Taiwan Branch Office. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.

 

Product Development Costs

 

Research and development expenditures are expensed to operations as incurred. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Through December 31, 2002, all software development costs have been expensed.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company extends credit to its customers. Accounts receivable that the Company has are recorded at their outstanding principal balances, adjusted by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company considers the length of time receivable balances have been outstanding, historical write-off experience, current economic conditions and customer-specific information. When the Company ultimately concludes that a receivable is uncollectible, the balance is charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of December 31, 2001 and 2002, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Prepaid Royalties

 

The Company has entered into certain co-sourced product contracts. These license agreements generally require payments of royalties to/from the other party depending on the customer. Contracts generally provide for royalties to be calculated as a specified percentage of sales. Royalties payable are calculated using the contract percentage rates, and are recognized as cost of sales when the related sales are recognized.

 

Sales Commissions

 

Commission expense is recognized over the period that the related revenue is recognized. Commissions are paid on the total committed contract value at the time at least 25% of that value has been collected. Commissions paid in advance of the recognition of commission expense are recorded as a prepaid asset. If the Company is ever required to refund any amount actually paid by a customer, any commissions already paid based upon such amounts shall be immediately recoverable by BroadJump.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Software Revenue Recognition

 

License fees revenue is comprised of fees for term and perpetual licenses of the Company’s software as well as maintenance and managed software solutions bundled with such licenses. To date, the Company has not entered into an arrangement solely for the license of products and, therefore, the Company has not demonstrated vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for the license, maintenance or managed software solutions elements. As VSOE has not been established for any of the license fees revenue components, perpetual license revenue is recognized over the longer of the term of the associated maintenance period and the managed software solutions period, and term license revenue is recognized over the term of the contract. Maintenance and support provide for technical support of the Company’s software products and include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Managed software solutions involve remote management of the Company’s solutions. License fees revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no unfulfilled obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. If an arrangement includes the right of acceptance or a right to cancel, revenue is recognized when acceptance is received or the right to cancel has expired.

 

Services revenue is comprised of revenue from professional services, such as consulting services and training. Consulting services include a range of services including installation, implementation and building of non-complex interfaces for the customer’s specific application. The Company has determined that the service elements of its software arrangements are not essential to the functionality of the software. The Company has also determined that its professional services do not involve a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria and qualify for separate accounting as the Company has sufficient experience in providing such services.

 

VSOE of fair value services in multiple element arrangements is based upon rates for consulting and training services. Services revenue from consulting and training billed on a time and materials basis is recognized as performed. Services revenue recognized on fixed price arrangements is recognized based on the proportional performance method of total days incurred to date on a project compared to the expected total number of days to be incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

At December 31, 2002, the Company has a stock-based compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 10. The Company accounts for its plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net loss, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based compensation.

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less allowances for accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The Company’s assets are currently depreciated over periods ranging from two to five years.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers as cash, monies invested in highly liquid financial securities with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the periods ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 was $333,120, $605,181 and $760,659, respectively.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The carrying value of notes payable approximates its fair value as interest rates fluctuate based on market activity.

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company renewed $1,505,370 in certificates of deposit during 2002. These investments are restricted for security deposits of which $1,405,968 is for office space leases which support the Company’s expanding operations and $99,402 secures a contract with a foreign customer. All such assets are placed with a high-credit, quality financial institution.

The maturity dates range from 2001 to 2003 and the stated yields of these investments vary between 1.5% and 1.65%. There are certain time restrictions placed on these instruments that must lapse before the Company can liquidate the principal of these investments.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of short-term investments and trade receivables. The Company’s short-term investments, which are included in cash and cash equivalents for reporting purposes, are placed with high-credit, quality financial institutions and issuers. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customer’s financial condition and generally does not require collateral.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” in June 2001. SFAS No. 142 provides that separable intangible assets that have finite lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, any impairment loss identified upon adoption of this standard is recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. Any impairment loss recognized subsequent to initial adoption of SFAS No. 142 will be recorded as a charge to current period earnings. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and must be applied as of the beginning of a fiscal year. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142 in 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

The FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” in August 2001. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” and other related accounting guidance. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application encouraged. The provisions of this statement generally are to be applied prospectively. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 in 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 146 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of SFAS No. 123.” SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of that statement to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. Finally, this Statement amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure about those effects in interim financial information. Since the Company is continuing to account for stock-based compensation according to APB No. 25, adoption of SFAS No. 148 requires the Company to provide prominent disclosures about the effects of SFAS No. 123 on reported income (loss).

A total of 347,531 shares of outstanding common stock is subject to repurchase by the Company at December 31, 2002, should vesting requirements not be fulfilled. The potential liability for exercised unvested shares which are subject to repurchase at their aggregate original exercise price is approximately $309,449 at December 31, 2002.

 

Warrants

 

On June 12, 2000, the Company issued performance-based warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.47 per share to a customer in connection with an agreement. No value was attributed to these warrants based on a valuation performed using a pricing model at the date the warrants were earned. At December 31, 2000, 100,000 warrants had fully vested and become exercisable. The remainder would have vested on the attainment of certain performance criteria. The Company has reserved 120,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance related to these warrants. At December 31, 2001, the remaining 20,000 warrants were canceled due to failure to attain the performance criteria.

 

11.    Employee Benefit Plan

 

During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company established a voluntary defined contribution retirement plan qualifying under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Company made no contributions in the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002.

12.    Employee Benefits

 

The Company’s employees are offered health coverage under a partially self-funded plan in which the Company purchases specific stop-loss insurance coverage at $40,000 per year, per employee. The Company has also purchased an aggregate stop-loss insurance coverage to limit its maximum annual exposure to claims funded. Based on the policy census at December 31, 2002, such maximum annual exposure for the policy year ending April 30, 2003, is approximately $1.3 million. The Company pays a fixed fee per covered individual for administrative costs and the cost of the stop-loss insurance purchased on the Company’s behalf. The Company contributes 100% toward the cost to insure each employee and 75% toward the cost to insure dependents for which coverage is requested by the employee. Expenses for the partially self-funded plan including premiums and claims funded for the year ended December 31, 2002, were approximately $1.1 million.

 

13.    Related Party

 

On November 6, 2002, the Company executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Motive Communications, Inc. (“Motive”). Effective December 8, 2002, the Company entered into a reseller agreement (the “Agreement”) with Motive. The Agreement allows Motive the right to grant limited (either by time or by number of licenses) sublicenses of the licensed software to broadband service providers. As of December 31, 2002, the Company recorded a receivable from Motive and deferred revenue in the amount of approximately $1.3 million.

 

14.    Subsequent Event

 

On January 17, 2003, the Company was acquired by Motive. Upon the acquisition, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Motive. The Company incurred approximately $1.2 million in merger costs associated with this acquisition. The Company has certain co-sourced product contracts with a competitor of Motive. No liability has been recorded related to the termination of these contracts.

15.    Restatement

The carrying value of the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock has been restated to correct a mathematical mistake made in the determination of the redemption value of such shares as of December 31, 2001 and 2002. The effect of such restatement was to increase mandatorily redeemable preferred stock by $46,804,367 and decrease additional paid-in capital and stockholders’ equity by $46,804,367 as of December 31, 2001 and 2002.

Item 14.    Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law gives a corporation power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

Section 145 also gives a corporation power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. Section 145 further provides that, to the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any such action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

Section 145 also authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or

other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145.

 

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will provide for the indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Additionally, we have entered into separate indemnification agreements, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to the Registration Statement, with certain officers and directors. These indemnification agreements may require us, among other things, to indemnify our officers and directors against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. We have also agreed pursuant to our Seventh Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement (filed as Exhibit 4.2 to the Registration Statement) to indemnify certain stockholders who may be controlling stockholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

The Underwriting Agreement (filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registration Statement) provides for the indemnification of our directors and officers in certain circumstances against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

All of our directors and officers are covered by insurance policies maintained by us against certain liabilities for actions taken in their capacities as such, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Item 15.    Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

 

During the past three years, we have issued securities in the following transactions, each of which was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, the “Securities Act”).

The descriptions below do not give effect to the one-for-four reverse split of our common stock and preferred stock which will occur immediately prior to the closing of the offering made pursuant to this Registration Statement.

 

  1.   On June 1, 2001, we issued to a lender in connection with certain lending arrangements a warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The warrant was issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 506, promulgated under the Securities Act. The lender is a bank, as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and is, therefore, an accredited investor. An appropriate legend was affixed to the warrant.

These securities we issued to Question are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 3(a)(10) thereof. In a hearing held on October 24, 2001 by the California Department of Corporations pursuant to Section 25142 of the California Corporations Code, it was determined that the terms and conditions of the issuance of securities were fair, just and equitable and on that same day a permit for the offer, sale and issuance of our securities was issued by the California Corporations Commissioner.

Item 17.    Undertakings

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to provisions described in Item 14 above or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
