1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for interim financial information of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. In Pivotal’s opinion, these financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for the interim periods presented.

6.    RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

During the six months ended December 31, 2001, management approved restructuring plans to align Pivotal’s cost structure with changing market conditions and to create a more efficient organization. As a result, Pivotal recorded a charge of $1.9 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2001 and $16.5 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2001. These charges include costs associated with workforce reduction, consolidation of excess facilities, contract settlements and asset impairments. In addition, Pivotal recorded a charge of $33.0 million related to the impairment of previously recorded goodwill and other purchased intangible assets in the quarter ended December 31, 2001. Pivotal does not currently expect to incur additional restructuring charges in subsequent periods, however unforeseen changes in business circumstances could require additional restructuring initiatives. Adjustments to the restructuring reserves will be made in future periods, if necessary, based upon actual events and circumstances at the time.

Workforce reduction charges include the cost of severance and related benefits of employees affected by the restructuring activities. Excess facility costs represent lease termination payments, net of expected sublease revenue, and other costs related to the closure of certain corporate facilities, sales offices and research and development centers for activities that have been exited or restructured. Certain leasehold improvements located at the closed facilities and computer equipment and software licenses were determined to be impaired as a result of the restructuring activities and were written down to estimated recoverable value, net of estimated disposal costs. Contract settlement costs include penalties incurred, or expected to be incurred, due to Pivotal’s withdrawal from certain purchase and partner contracts.

Changes in the restructuring reserve are as follows:

6.    RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS (continued)

Pivotal expects to pay the remainder of its accrued severance and benefits costs by the end of March 2002. The remaining lease commitments will be paid over the respective lease terms through to June 2007. The estimated costs to exit the facilities, including expected sublease revenues, are based on available commercial rates and an estimate of the time required to sublet the facilities.

The nature of the charges summarized above is as follows:

Severance and Benefits

During the quarters ended September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, Pivotal recorded charges of approximately $0.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, related to severance benefits to terminated employees in the United States and various international locations. Pivotal terminated approximately 50 and 150 employees in a variety of locations in the United States and internationally during the quarters ended September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, respectively.

Excess Facilities/Asset Impairments

During the quarters ended September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, Pivotal recorded charges of approximately $0.9 million and $9.6 million, respectively, related to the consolidation of facilities and impairment of certain assets. Included in these charges are approximately $4.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2001 related to asset impairments of certain capital assets related directly to restructuring activities. These assets were either abandoned during the quarter or the resulting estimated future reduced cash flows were insufficient to cover the carrying amounts of the related assets. The remainder of the charges related to the consolidation of facilities and represent remaining lease commitments, net of expected sublease income. The charge may be increased in future periods if further consolidations are required or if sublease income is less than expected.

Contract Settlement Costs/Other

During the quarters ended September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, Pivotal recorded charges of approximately $0.6 and $4.1 million, respectively, for contract settlement costs including penalties expected to be incurred due to Pivotal’s withdrawal from certain purchase and partner contracts and for various incremental costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring. If additional contracts are cancelled in future periods, or if extra unforeseen costs are incurred in respect of current contracts, this charge may increase.

Goodwill/Other Purchased Intangible Assets Impairment

Pivotal periodically assesses the impairment of long-lived assets, including identifiable intangibles, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of”. Based on quantitative and qualitative measures, Pivotal assesses the need to record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when impairment indicators are present.

To determine other than temporary impairment for identifiable intangibles, the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is compared to the current carrying value. If the undiscounted cash flows are greater than or equal to the current carrying value the asset is deemed not to be impaired. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the current

carrying value then the asset is deemed impaired. A discounted cash flow analysis is then prepared and the difference between the carrying value and the discounted cash flows represents the charge taken in accordance with SFAS No. 121. To determine the impairment loss for goodwill, we determined the fair value using a business enterprise methodology which includes a terminal value assigned to the entity. This value is then compared to the carrying value, and if less, the difference represents the impairment to be recorded. The assumptions supporting the estimated future cash flows, including the estimated terminal values, reflect management’s best estimates. It is possible that the estimates and assumptions used under this assessment may change in the short term, resulting in the need to further write down the goodwill and other long-lived assets. In addition, it is possible that we may have additional reductions in goodwill in future periods.

As part of Pivotal’s review of financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2001, management performed an impairment assessment of identifiable intangible assets and goodwill recorded in connection with our past acquisitions. The impairment assessment was performed due to changes in overall economic conditions that have negatively impacted our revenues and forecasted revenue growth rate. As a result, we recorded a $33.0 million impairment charge in the quarter ended December 31, 2001 to reduce goodwill associated with our acquisitions and other purchased intangibles to their estimated fair values. This impairment charge is primarily associated with our acquisition of Exactium Ltd. and Digital Conversations Inc. (formerly Simba Technologies Inc.), Software Spectrum CRM, Inc. and Project One Business Technologies, Inc.

7.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No.141 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired in a business combination and SFAS No. 142 addresses the subsequent recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination whether acquired individually or with a group of other assets. These standards require all future business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but instead will be subject to impairment tests at least annually.

Pivotal is required to adopt SFAS No. 141 and 142 on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2002; however, certain provisions of these new Standards may also apply to any acquisitions concluded subsequent to June 30, 2001. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 is not expected to have a material effect on Pivotal’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in 2002 and subsequent years. After June 20, 2002, Pivotal will no longer amortize goodwill pursuant to SFAS No. 142. Goodwill amortization for the six months ended December 31, 2001 was $13.0 million. Unamortized goodwill as of December 31, 2001 was $10.8 million. Pivotal will complete an initial goodwill impairment assessment in fiscal 2003 to determine if a transition impairment charge should be recognized under SFAS No. 142.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," in August 2001. SFAS No. 144, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of, supersedes SFAS No. 121 and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Therefore, Pivotal will be required to adopt SFAS No. 144 as of July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 is not expected to have a material impact on Pivotal's financial statements.

OVERVIEW

Pivotal Corporation enables entrepreneurial enterprises worldwide to acquire, serve and manage their customers by providing customer relationship management and electronic business solutions. We define entrepreneurial enterprises as having revenues exceeding $50 million annually; have an entrepreneurial approach to doing business; demand results; and make buying decisions based on proof, not brand alone. Customer relationship management and electronic business solutions automate and manage marketing, selling and servicing processes over the Internet. We refer to our solutions as the Pivotal Customer Relationship Management and eBusiness solution suite. The Customer Relationship Management and eBusiness solution suite is designed to complement and integrate with a business’ supply chain, therefore enabling businesses to improve efficiency and increase revenues.

On October 1, 2001, we announced a new organizational structure whereby seven core business functions (marketing, sales, alliances, professional services, international operations, finance and administration, and research and development) report directly to the President and Chief Executive Officer. Previously, only the offices of the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technology Officer reported to the President and Chief Executive Officer. In addition, we appointed Divesh Sisodraker as our new Chief Financial Officer.

On October 25, 2001, we announced our strategic plan, which included corporate restructuring initiatives. The restructuring included a further workforce reduction of approximately 150 employees in addition to an initial reduction of 50 employees (27% of worldwide workforce) in the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the consolidation of excess facilities and restructuring of certain business functions. We believe that this new headcount will enable us to align with both the current demand in the market for customer relationship management and electronic business solutions as well as the anticipated growth over the next six month period within that market. We have also restructured our sales process. This process will allow customers to conduct formalized evaluations of our solutions prior to making their decision to purchase. Although this may extend the length of some sales cycles, we believe this will result in an advantage over our competitors as our customers will experience more security in the buying process. In adition, we have recently commenced a restructuring of our North American alliance program whereby many of our partner relationships are being terminated or redefined.

SOURCE OF REVENUE AND REVENUE RECOGNITION POLICY

We derive our revenues from the sale of licenses, services and maintenance to end-users, value added resellers and application service providers and, to a lesser extent, through distribution of third-party products.

We recognize license revenues on delivery of our solutions to the customer if:

Multiple-element arrangements could consist of software licenses, upgrades, enhancements, maintenance and consulting services. Revenues for multiple-element arrangements are allocated among the components based upon the relative fair values of each element.

Under some license arrangements, with either a fixed or indefinite term, our customers agree to pay for the license with periodic payments extending beyond one year. We recognize revenues from these arrangements as the periodic payments become due, provided all other conditions for revenue recognition are met.

We enter into reseller and sub-licensing arrangements that provide a fee payable to us based on a percentage of list price. We recognize revenue only on the fees payable to us, net of any amount payable to the reseller by the customer.

We typically sell first year maintenance with the related software license. Revenue related to maintenance is recognized over the term of the maintenance contract, typically one year. Revenues relating to maintenance has increased due to our increasing customer base and the renewal of technical support and maintenance contracts upon expiration of first year maintenance arrangements.

We recognize revenues from consulting, implementation services and education as these services are performed. We derive revenue from these services primarily on a time-and-materials basis under a separate service arrangement with the customer. In circumstances where we enter into fixed price service contracts, revenues are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis which is measured based upon actual person-hours performed. The majority of the implementation services provided to our customers in connection with installations of our solutions are provided by third-party consulting and implementation service providers. These third-party service providers contract directly with the customer.

Our cost of license revenues primarily consists of production, packaging and distribution of solutions and related documentation, as well as royalty fees due to third parties for integrated technology. Our cost of services revenues includes salaries and related expenses for our implementation, consulting, support and maintenance, and education organizations and an allocation of facilities, communications and depreciation expenses. Our operating expenses are classified into three general categories: sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative. We classify all charges to these operating expense categories based on the nature of the expenditures. We allocate the costs for overhead, depreciation and facilities to each of the functional areas based on their headcount.

Software development costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are included in research and development costs as they are incurred. Software development costs are not generally expensed in the same period in which license revenues for the developed solutions are recognized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table presents selected financial data, derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, as a percentage of total revenues for the periods indicated. The operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the six months ended December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any future period.

REVENUES

Total revenues decreased 36% to $16.5 million from $25.7 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Total revenues for the six month period ended December 31, 2001 were $32.5 million compared with $46.8 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000, representing a decrease of 31%.

The market for our solutions and related services is unpredictable. Our sales are susceptible to fluctuations in the economy and the corresponding effect on corporate purchasing habits creating a reluctance of companies to acquire significant software systems at this time. These market conditions may continue to deteriorate. The severity and duration of any further deterioration may compel us to consider further reductions in our workforce to realign with those new market conditions, on either a regional or global scale, or both. This reduction could adversely impact our ability to develop, deliver and/or service our existing and new products, as well as our ability to attract, maintain and service our customers.

Licenses

Revenues from licenses decreased 58% to $6.9 million from $16.3 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Revenues from licenses for the six month period ended December 31, 2001 were

-14-

$12.9 million compared with $30.1 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 representing a decrease of 57%.

Revenues from licenses represented 42% and 64% of total revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, revenues for licenses represented 40% and 64% of total revenues. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of our revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 or the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. North American license revenues accounted for 43% and 72% of total license revenues in the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, North American license revenues accounted for 51% and 74% of total license revenues.

Our customers include a number of our suppliers. On occasion, we have purchased goods or services for our operations from these vendors at or about the same time we have licensed our software to these organizations. These transactions are negotiated separately and recorded at terms we consider to be arms-length. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, we recognized no software license revenue from transactions with vendors where we purchased goods or services from those vendors at or about the same time as the software license transactions. During the six months ended December 31, 2001, we recognized approximately $1.2 million of software license revenue from vendors from whom we purchased goods or services during the same period.

Services and Maintenance

Revenues from services and maintenance increased 3% to $9.6 million from $9.4 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This resulted largely from an increase of $0.7 million in revenues from technical support and maintenance contracts, which entitle the customer to new versions of the solutions and to technical support and maintenance services, and a decrease of $0.5 million in revenues from implementation, education and consulting service engagements.

During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, revenues from services and maintenance increased 18% to $19.6 million from $16.7 million. This resulted from an increase of $1.4 million in revenues from technical support and maintenance contracts and an increase of $1.5 million in revenues from implementation, education and consulting service engagements.

Our revenues from services and maintenance represented 58% and 36% of total revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, our revenues from services and maintenance represented 60% and 36% of total revenues, respectively. We believe that future revenues from services and maintenance will decrease as a percentage of total revenues. We intend to expand consulting services targeted at helping customers: implement Customer Relationship Management as a business methodology and integrate their Customer Relationship Management systems with existing information technology systems and other software applications; understand more about matters such as effective one-to-one marketing; and use the Internet to increase revenues and improve customer service. We plan to continue relying on third parties to provide a majority of implementation services to our customers rather than providing those services directly.

COST OF REVENUES

Total cost of revenues increased 5% to $6.3 million from $6.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, total cost of revenues increased 18% to $12.6 million from $10.7 million.

Licenses

Cost of revenues from licenses decreased to approximately $0.6 million from $1.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, cost of revenues from licenses decreased to $1.0 million from $1.8 million, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to the decline in license revenues compared to prior quarters. Cost of revenues from licenses as a percentage of revenues from licenses was 8% and 6% for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, cost of revenues from licenses as a percentage of revenues from

-15-

licenses was 8% and 6%, respectively. The cost of licenses as a percentage of license revenue remains similar to prior quarters but can fluctuate quarter to quarter depending on sales mix and costs of third-party technology integrated with our solutions.

Services and Maintenance

Cost of revenues from services and maintenance consists of personnel and other expenses relating to the cost of providing maintenance and customer support, education and consulting services.

Cost of revenues from services and maintenance will vary depending on the mix of services we provide between support and maintenance, education, implementation and consulting services. Gross profit margins are higher for support and maintenance services than they are for education, implementation and consulting services. Support and maintenance services involve the delivery of software upgrades and customer support. Education, implementation and consulting services generally require more involvement by our employees, resulting in higher compensation, travel and similar expenses.

Cost of revenues from services and maintenance increased 14% to $5.7 million from $5.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cost of revenues from services and maintenance as a percentage of revenues from services and maintenance was 59% and 53% for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001, cost of revenues from services and maintenance increased 31% to $11.6 million from $8.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2000 and increased to 59% of revenues from services and maintenance from 53% for the six months ended December 31, 2000.

We expect that cost of revenues from services and maintenance will decrease as a percentage of revenues from services and maintenance as a result of our restructuring activities.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, bonuses and benefits earned by sales and marketing personnel, direct expenditures such as travel, communication and occupancy for direct sales offices and marketing expenditures related to direct mail, online marketing, trade shows, advertising and promotion.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 19% to $10.5 million from $12.9 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, sales and marketing expenses decreased 2% to $23.9 million from $24.4 million. The decreased expenditures for both the three and six month periods ending December 31, 2001 is the result of a reduction in employees and marketing program expenditures following the implementation of our restructuring plans as well as increased operating efficiencies. Sales and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of total revenues to 64% from 50% for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, sales and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of total revenues to 73% from 52%. This increase of sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues resulted from lower revenue this quarter. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will continue to decrease as a percentage of total revenues as we experience the full impact of our restructuring plans.

Pivotal entered into a consulting agreement with Christopher Lochhead effective October 1, 2001, as a provider of marketing consulting services. Mr. Lochhead was appointed to Pivotal’s board of directors on November 27, 2001. We have agreed to pay Mr. Lochhead a retainer of $12,000 per month in exchange for Mr. Lochhead providing us with an aggregate of one and one half (1.5) full days of in-person consulting services, of fifteen (15) hours of telephone consulting services during each month. As soon as the aforementioned amount has been exceeded, upon the prior approval of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lochhead may charge us a fee of $900 per hour, up to a total of $8,000 per full day, for any additional services he has provided to us during each month.

-16-

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and equipment for software engineers, quality assurance personnel, program managers, product managers, technical writers and outside contractors used to augment our research and development efforts.

Research and development expenses increased 4% to $4.7 million from $4.5 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, research and development expenses increased 14% to $9.6 million from $8.4 million. These increases are the result of an increase in employees and contract labor required to support new product initiatives. Research and development expenses were 28% and 18% of total revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, research and development expenses were 30% and 18% of total revenues. We expect that research and development spending to decrease as a percentage of total revenues as we experience the full impact of our restructuring plans.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and related costs for executive, finance, administrative, human resources and information services personnel. General and administrative expenses also include legal and other professional fees.

General and administrative expenses increased 33% to $2.8 million from $2.1 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, general and administrative expenses increased 105% to $8.0 million from $3.9 million. General and administrative expenses were 17% and 8% of total revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, general and administrative expenses were 25% and 8% of total revenues. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to hiring additional personnel and the implementation of internal infrastructure including financial and administrative systems. We expect general and administrative expenses will decrease as a percentage of total revenues as a result of our restructuring plans.

Restructuring Costs and Other Charges

Restructuring related costs and other charges were $49.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2001. These charges included $16.5 million for workforce reduction, consolidation of excess facilities, contract termination costs, and the writedown of property, equipment, leasehold improvements, and other assets, and a $33.0 million charge for the impairment of goodwill and other purchased intangible assets. Management estimates that the net effect of the restructuring plans will be a reduction of approximately $5 million in our quarterly cost structure compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2001. See Note 6 in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Amortization of Goodwill

Amortization of goodwill was $6.1 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2001, compared to $5.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2000. The increase resulted from additional goodwill amortization on businesses acquired during the year ended June 30, 2001. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, amortization of goodwill was $13.0 million and $10.4 million.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income consists of earnings on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments net of interest expense, foreign exchange gains and losses, and gains and losses on sale of property and equipment. Interest and other income was $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, interest and other income was $0.7 million and $1.0 million. The quarter ended December 31, 2001 included a foreign exchange gain of $0.1

-17-

million. For the six months ended December 31, 2001, foreign exchange loss was $0.1 million. The other components of interest and other income were not material for the periods presented.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, the provision for income taxes was $0.3 million and $0.1 million. These income tax amounts were all attributable to our operations in the United States and the United Kingdom.

QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following tables present our unaudited quarterly results of operations both in absolute dollars and on percentage of revenue basis for each of our last eight quarters. This data has been derived from unaudited consolidated financial statements that have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of such information. These unaudited quarterly results should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Quarterly results of operations in absolute dollars:

-18-

Quarterly results of operations on a percentage of revenue basis:

We believe the decrease in revenue that commenced in the quarter ended June 30, 2001 as compared to prior quarters was due to the current economic slowdown and related reluctance of companies to acquire significant software and systems at this time.

Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and will continue to fluctuate in the future as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result of our restructuring initiatives and our limited operating history and recent acquisitions, we cannot forecast operating expenses based on historical results. Accordingly, we base our anticipated level of expense in part on future revenue projections and planned expenditure levels. Most of our expenses are fixed in the short-term and we may not be able to quickly reduce spending if revenues are lower than we have projected. Our ability to forecast our quarterly revenues accurately is limited given the current economic climate, our limited operating history, the length of the sales cycle of our solutions and other uncertainties in our business. If revenues in a particular quarter do not meet projections, our net losses in a given quarter would be greater than expected. As a result, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results are not necessarily meaningful. Investors should not rely on the results of one quarter as an indication of future performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 2001, we had $14.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $33.2 million in short-term investments and $25.9 million in total working capital. Our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balance decreased to $47.8 million at December 31, 2001 from $68.7 million at June 30, 2001. Our working capital decreased to $25.9 million at December 31, 2001 from $58.4 million at June 30, 2001.

Net cash used in operating activities was $17.3 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increased use of cash for operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2001, was primarily due to decreased revenues compared to the six months ended December 31, 2000.

Net cash generated by investing activities was $18.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001 and net cash used in investing activities was $48.2 million in the same period in 2000. During the six months ended December 31, 2001, we received proceeds of $22.3 million from the sale and maturity of short-term investments. Net capital expenditures were $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.3 million and $53.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from sales of equity securities.

Our principal sources of liquidity at December 31, 2001 were our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $47.8 million. We have a credit facility with a Canadian chartered bank, which includes a revolving letter of credit facility of $5.0 million, bearing interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 1% per year, secured by a charge on all of our current and future personal property. As of June 30, 2001 and 2000, no amounts were outstanding under the credit facility. During the quarter ended September 30, 2001, we entered into an irrevocable letter of credit with a Canadian chartered bank for Cdn. $3.8 million ($2.5 million). The letter of credit, which expires July 3, 2002, collaterizes our obligations to a third party for tenant improvement costs.

We believe that the total amount of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, along with the commercial credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital or other purposes through the next eighteen months. We expect to spend approximately $1.0 million on new capital additions during the remainder of fiscal 2002. Thereafter, depending on the development of our business, we may need to raise additional cash for working capital or other expenses. We also may encounter opportunities for acquisitions or other business initiatives that require significant cash commitments, or unanticipated problems or expenses that could result in a requirement for additional cash before that time. If we need to raise additional cash, financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, or at all.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject Pivotal to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are custodied with high-quality financial institutions and short-term investments are made in investment grade securities to mitigate exposure to credit risk. Pivotal’s customer base is dispersed across many different geographic areas throughout North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific and consists of companies in a variety of industries. Pivotal performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and does not require collateral or other security to support credit sales. Pivotal provides an allowance for bad debts based on historical experience and specifically identified risks. If the creditworthiness of certain customers deteriorates, or their business fails, we may experience additional bad debt expenses.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No.141 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired in a business combination and SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination whether acquired individually or with a group of other assets. These standards require all future business combinations to be

-20-

accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but instead will be subject to impairment tests at least annually.

We are required to adopt SFAS No. 141 and 142 on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2002; however, certain provisions of these new Standards may also apply to any acquisitions concluded subsequent to June 30, 2001. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in 2002 and subsequent years. After June 20, 2002, we will no longer amortize goodwill pursuant to SFAS No. 142. Goodwill amortization for the six months ended December 31, 2001 was $13.0 million. Unamortized goodwill as of December 31, 2001 was $10.8 million. We will complete an initial goodwill impairment assessment in 2002 to determine if a transition impairment charge should be recognized under SFAS No. 142.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," in August 2001. SFAS No. 144, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of, supersedes SFAS No. 121 and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Therefore, we will be required to adopt SFAS No. 144 as of July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

PART I - ITEM 3

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to financial market risks, including fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

INTEREST RATE RISK

We invest our cash in a variety of short-term financial instruments, including government bonds, commercial paper and money market instruments. Our portfolio is diversified and consists primarily of investment grade securities to minimize credit risk. These investments are typically denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies are operating balances and are only invested in demand or short-term deposits of the local operating bank.

Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted because of a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations because of changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have seen a decline in market value because of changes in interest rates.

Our investments are made in accordance with an investment policy approved by our Board of Directors. Under this policy, all short-term investments must be made in investment grade securities with original maturities of less than one year at the time of acquisition.

We do not attempt to reduce or eliminate our exposure to interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments due to the short-term nature of the investments. Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on our balances as of December 31, 2001, the fair value of our short-term investment portfolio would not be materially impacted by a shift in the yield curve of plus or minus 50, 100 or 150 basis points.

OTHER INVESTMENTS

Included in other assets are certain investments in public and private companies. Our investment in a public company is considered available for sale and is subject to considerable market price volatility and is additionally risky due to resale restrictions. The investment is recorded on the balance sheet at market value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. We may lose some or all of our investment in those shares. Our investments in privately held companies are carried at cost. These investments are inherently risky, as they typically are comprised of investments in companies that are still in start-up or development stages. The market for their product or technologies that they have under development is typically in the early stages, and may never materialize. We could lose our entire investment in these companies or may incur an impairment charge if we determine that the value of these assets has been impaired.

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

We have operations in Canada and a number of countries outside of the United States and therefore we are subject to risks typical of an international business including, but not limited to, differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely affected by changes in these or other factors.

Our sales and corresponding receivables are substantially in U.S. dollars. Through our operations in Canada and outside North America, we incur the majority of our research and development, customer support costs and administrative expenses in Canadian and other local currencies. We are exposed, in the normal course of business, to foreign currency risks on these expenditures. We have evaluated our exposure to these risks and have determined

-22-

that our only significant foreign currency exposure at this time is to the Canadian dollar through our operations in Canada. At this time, we do not believe our exposure to other currencies is material.

On occasion, we use forward contracts to minimize the risks associated with transactions originating in Canadian dollars. We have not designated these forward contracts to be hedging instruments. Therefore, all gains or losses resulting from the change in fair value of these contracts have been included in earnings in the current period.

If we were to designate these types of forward contracts or other derivatives as hedges in the future and such derivatives satisfy the criteria for hedging instruments, then depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivatives will be offset against the change in fair value of assets, liabilities, or firm commitments recognized in earnings (fair value hedges) or recognized in other comprehensive income until the related hedged item is recognized in earnings (cash flow hedges). Any change in fair value related to the ineffective portion of a derivative will be recognized in earnings through periodic mark to market adjustments.

In addition to the use of foreign exchange forward contracts noted above, from time to time we may also purchase Canadian dollars in the open market and hold these funds in order to satisfy forecasted operating needs in Canadian dollars for the next operating period, which is generally limited to six months or less.

If our actual currency requirement in the period forecasted differs materially from the notional amount of our forward contracts and/or the amount of Canadian dollars purchased in the open market during a period of currency volatility or if we do not continue to manage our exposure to foreign currency through forward contracts or other means, we could experience unanticipated foreign currency gains or losses.

Our foreign currency risk management policy subjects us to risks relating to the creditworthiness of the commercial banks with which we enter into forward contracts. If one of these banks cannot honor its obligations, we may suffer a loss. We also invest in our international operations which will likely result in increased future operating expenses denominated in United Kingdom and Irish pounds, French Francs, euros, German marks, Japanese yen, Australian dollars and New Zealand dollars. Our exposure to exchange fluctuations in foreign currencies is not material to date and accordingly, our current foreign currency risk management practices do not cover foreign exchange risks related to these other currencies. In the future, our exposure to foreign currency risks from these other foreign currencies may increase and if not managed appropriately, we could experience unanticipated foreign currency gains and losses.

The purpose of our foreign currency risk management policy is to reduce the effect of exchange rate fluctuation on our results of operations. Therefore, while our foreign currency risk management policy may reduce our exposure to losses resulting from unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates, it also reduces or eliminates our ability to profit from favorable changes in currency exchange rates.

At December 31, 2001, we had no outstanding currency forward exchange contracts. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, we recorded a foreign exchange gain of $149,000 compared to a foreign exchange gain of $77,000 for the year ended June 30, 2001. As at December 31, 2001, a ten percent change in the exchange rate would not have a material effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We have recently settled a matter that was in arbitration with one of our business partners related to a breach of contract claim. The matter was settled with no material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

As of the date hereof, there is no material litigation pending against us. From time to time, we are a party to litigation and claims incident to the ordinary course of business.
