EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for our quarter ended March 31, 2007 includes restatements of our condensed consolidated financial statements for our quarter ended March 31, 2006 (and related disclosures). See Note 2, “Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for a detailed discussion of the effects of the restatement.

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which is being filed concurrently with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “2006 Form 10-K”), we restated our unaudited quarterly financial information and financial statements for the first and second quarters of 2006. As described in the 2006 Form 10-K, the restatement was a result of an independent review of our historical stock option practices and related accounting that was conducted by a Special Committee of our Board of Directors, as well as for sales tax liability expense adjustment for prior periods.

Previously filed annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatements have not been amended and, as such, should not be relied upon. On December 18, 2006, we issued a press release announcing that, although we had not yet concluded which specific periods would require restatement, the Audit Committee of our Board had concluded that our previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. (with its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “the Company”) was incorporated in California on July 23, 1993, and reincorporated in Delaware on February 15, 2000. The Company provides strategic data management solutions that help organizations cost-effectively build, optimize, test and manage their critical data, database and application infrastructures. The Company is headquartered in San Francisco, California and has international operations in Maidenhead, United Kingdom; Munich, Germany; Iasi, Romania; Toronto, Canada; and Melbourne, Australia.

The Company markets its software and related maintenance services directly through telesales and field sales organizations in North America, the United Kingdom and Australia, and indirectly through original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), independent distributors and resellers worldwide.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of the Company, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to interim financial statements and the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The balance sheet at December 31, 2006, was derived from the audited financial statements, but it does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. As a result of the restatement of previously issued financial statements discussed in Note 2 below, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the restated audited financial statements and the related notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, being filed concurrently with Securities and Exchange Commission.

Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2007 or for any future period. Further, the preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts reported therein. A change in facts or circumstances surrounding the estimates could result in a change to the estimates and impact future operating results.

NOTE 2—RESTATEMENT OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which is being filed concurrently with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “2006 Form 10-K”), we restated our unaudited quarterly financial information and financial statements for the first and second quarters of 2006. As described in the 2006 Form 10-K, the restatement was a result of an independent review of our historical stock option practices and related accounting that was conducted by a Special Committee of our Board of Directors, as well as for sales tax liability expense adjustment for prior periods.

Previously filed annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatements have not been amended and, as such, should not be relied upon. On December 18, 2006, we issued a press release announcing that, although we had not yet concluded which specific periods

would require restatement, the Audit Committee of our Board had concluded that our previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon.

NOTE 3—SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). Under FIN 48, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on income tax expense must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. As a result, the Company increased its reserves for uncertain tax positions by $0.2 million, including interest and penalties, as a cumulative adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, the Company had approximately $2.0 million of unrecognized tax

benefits, $1.8 million of which would affect our income tax expense if recognized; the remaining balance of the unrecognized tax benefits would be an adjustment to goodwill.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of January 1, 2007, the Company had approximately $0.1 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years prior to 2003. An IRS examination of 2003 and 2004 was concluded in April 2007. For state tax matters, the Company is no longer subject to examinations for years prior to 2002 for California purposes, and for years prior to 2003 for other states for which tax returns have been filed. Foreign income tax matters for most foreign jurisdictions have been concluded for years through 2001, except for the United Kingdom, which have been concluded for years through 2003. The Company has not been under an examination by any state or foreign jurisdictions.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value instruments. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 17, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is reviewing SFAS No. 157 and has not yet determined the impact, if any, on its financial position or results of operations.

Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by adding dilutive common stock options and shares subject to repurchase to the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes potential dilutive shares of common stock since their effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock consist of unvested restricted common stock and shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options.

NOTE 6—CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company accounts for certain software development costs, including purchased software, in accordance with SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” In the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company did not capitalize any software development costs because no costs met the criteria for capitalization. Capitalized software is typically amortized over a period of 36 months. The remaining lives of the capitalized software at March 31, 2007 are between 9 and 21 months. The capitalized software development costs are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 7—RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT LOSS

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company recorded a restructuring and impairment charge of $4.1 million related to the consolidation of our office leases in San Francisco. The restructuring charge included a $2.8 million charge, which represented the net present value of the Company’s future

contractual lease obligations, net of any sublease income, and $566,000 of other expenses, principally lease commissions, legal fees and other subtenant allowances.

NOTE 8—STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R) , “Share-Based Payments.” Under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), we recorded stock compensation expense in our consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. We utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of the equity awards granted after the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Under SFAS 123(R), the Company recognized $126,000 and $441,000, net of taxes, of compensation expense related to stock options and employee stock purchases in the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options and employee stock purchases under SFAS 123(R) for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, which was allocated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited):

   $ 126     $ 441  
                

Upon adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company continued to calculate the value of each employee stock option, estimated on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes model in accordance with SFAS 123(R). The weighted-average estimated values of director stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007, were $2.95 per share, respectively, using the following weighted-average assumptions:

 

     Three Months
Ended March 31,
 
     2007     2006  

Risk-free interest rate

   4.65 %   4.47 %

Expected life

   4 years     4 years  

Expected dividends

   0     0  

Volatility

   55 %   55 %

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the average daily closing rates during the quarter for U.S. treasury notes that have a life which approximates the expected life of the option. The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. These expected life assumptions are established through the review of annual historical employee exercise behavior of option grants with similar vesting periods. Beginning in the first quarter of 2006, the Company began using an estimated forfeiture rate of 27% for stock options and 20% for stock awards based on historical data. Prior to 2006, the Company used the actual forfeiture method allowed under SFAS 123, which assumed that all options would vest and pro forma expense was adjusted when options were forfeited prior to the vesting dates.

SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company has no history or expectation of paying dividends on its common stock.

The Company uses a blended volatility rate combining historical stock price volatility and market-implied volatility as the expected volatility assumption required in the Black-Scholes model, consistent with SFAS 123(R) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company used historical stock price volatility in accordance with SFAS 123 for purposes of its pro forma information. The selection of the blended volatility using a combination of historical stock price and market-implied volatility was based upon the availability of actively traded options on the Company’s stock with a term of

three months or greater and the Company’s assessment of the implied volatility which is also representative of future stock price especially when combined with historical trends in volatility.

NOTE 9—SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC REPORTING

Operating segments are components of a business enterprise, the individual operations where the chief operating decision maker applies his decisions to allocate the resources to the different segments and to make assessments on the segments’ performances. By this definition, the Company operates only in one reportable operating segment; the design, development, marketing, sales and support of software for database and application development and management.

The Company’s geographic sales data is based on customer location as defined by the following regions: North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”) and Australia and Asia (“APAC”). The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Embarcadero Europe Ltd., transacts all sales in EMEA. Our San Francisco headquarters transacts all sales in North America and APAC. Various distributors and resellers handle sales in regions outside Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Africa and North America.

NOTE 10—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Bank Credit Facility

A financial institution issued to the Company an irrevocable standby letter of credit for approximately $120,000 in relation to a real estate lease agreement executed in April 2004. The standby letter of credit will expire on June 1, 2008.

Table of Contents

Leases

The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2011. The Company recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease period and has accrued for rent expense incurred but not paid. Some of the lease agreements have renewal options ranging from one to five years. In April 2004, the Company announced a restructuring plan. As a part of that plan, the Company entered into a new five-year lease commitment and subleased the remainder of its long-term San Francisco office leases. The lease and subleases were executed in April 2004. The subleases will expire in July 2008. The Company’s net contractual sublease income over the remaining duration of the subleases is $358,000 receivable as follows: $201,000 in 2007 and $157,000 in 2008.

The Company entered into a three-year capital lease agreement in September 2004 for approximately $499,000 to finance the acquisition of certain furniture and fixtures and computer equipment. The capital lease agreement bears an interest rate of 6.1% per annum and has a $1 buyout option at its expiration in September 2007.

Contingencies

On February 9, 2007, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California captioned Murray v. Wong et al., C07-00872 SBA. The complaint, which names the Company as a nominal defendant, relates to the Company’s historical stock option grant practices and seeks to bring derivative claims on behalf of the Company against its directors and certain current and former executive officers. The complaint asserts claims under federal and state law including breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, statutory violations and other violations of law. The Company is evaluating the lawsuit and intends to respond appropriately. We cannot estimate the ultimate outcome of this case at this preliminary stage.

On February 26, 2007 a complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Francisco, captioned Loeb v. Wong et al., CGC-07-460779. The complaint, which was amended on April 10, 2007, names the Company as a nominal defendant, relates to the Company’s historical stock option grant practices and seeks to bring derivative claims on behalf of the Company against its directors and certain current and former executive officers and agents. The amended complaint also seeks to bring direct claims against the Company and the other named defendants. The complaint asserts claims under state law including breaches of fiduciary duties, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment and violations of the California Corporations Code. The amended complaint also asserts direct putative class claims relating to the proposed merger with affiliates of Thoma Cressey Bravo,

Inc. The Company is evaluating the lawsuit and intends to respond appropriately. We cannot estimate the ultimate outcome of this case at this preliminary stage.

On March 9, 2007, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California captioned Redwing v. Wong et al., C07-01401. The complaint, which names the Company as a nominal defendant, relates to the Company’s historical stock option grant practices and seeks to bring derivative claims on behalf of the Company against its directors and certain current and former executive officers. The complaint asserts claims under federal and state law including breaches of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, statutory violations and other violations of law. The Company is evaluating the lawsuit and intends to respond appropriately. We cannot estimate the ultimate outcome of this case at this preliminary stage.

The Company may be named as a defendant in additional securities litigation or derivative lawsuits by current or former stockholders based on the restated financial statements. Further, the Company may be subject to claims relating to adverse tax consequences with respect to stock options covered by the restatement. Defending against potential claims would likely require significant attention and resources of management and could result in significant legal expenses.

There are no other known material legal proceedings. However, the Company may, from time to time, become a party to other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. The Company may also be indirectly affected by administrative or court proceedings or actions in which the Company is not involved but which have general applicability.

The Company provides general indemnification provisions in its license agreements. In these agreements, the Company states that it will defend or settle, at its own expense, any claim against the customer asserting a patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or proprietary right violation related to any products that the Company has licensed to the customer. The Company agrees to indemnify its customers against any loss, expense or liability, including reasonable attorney’s fees, from any damages alleged against the customer in its course of using products sold by the Company. The Company has not received any claims under this indemnification and does not know of any instances in which such a claim may be brought against the Company in the future. The Company believes that the fair value of these agreements is minimal and has not recorded any liabilities in connection with them.

In January 2007, the Company agreed to grant to certain designated employees, on the date that is two business days following the date on which the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, an aggregate of 115,000 shares of restricted stock and options to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Each of the awards will be granted pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and pursuant to the Company’s standard form of documentation relating thereto. The restricted stock will have a purchase price of $0.001 per share. The options to purchase common stock of the Company will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

NOTE 11—SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 5, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with EMB Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and EMBT Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), and the Company will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Thoma Cressey Bravo, Inc. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Shares”), other than Shares owned by (i) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) Parent or (iii) any stockholders who are entitled to and who properly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law, will be automatically converted into the right to receive $7.20 in cash

per share, without interest. The consummation of the Merger is subject, among other things, to the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the stockholders of the Company. The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2007.

As a condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent required that we continue to employ Raj Sabhlok, currently our Senior Vice President of Operations, and enter into a new Employment Agreement with Mr. Sabhlok that will become effective upon consummation of the Merger. Mr. Sabhlok will then become the Chief Executive Officer of the Company at an annual salary of $240,000. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Sabhlok will also be entitled to receive a discretionary bonus and participate in customary employee benefit programs for senior executives of the Company. In addition to the foregoing, Mr. Sabhlok will purchase management incentive equity in an amount equal to approximately 4.25% of the Parent’s common equity, subject to various time and performance vesting provisions agreed to by Parent and Mr. Sabhlok. Mr. Sabhlok has also agreed to invest $720,000 of the proceeds he is to receive in the Merger in shares of common stock and preferred stock of the Parent, generally on the same terms as Thoma Cressey Bravo, Inc.’s investment, bringing his aggregate equity up to approximately 5.53%.

In April 2007, the Board of Directors approved the payment by the Company to Michael Shahbazian, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of a one-time transaction bonus in the amount of $100,000 in cash, which will be payable in full upon the consummation of the Merger.

In April 2007, we received a final report from auditors for the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to the IRS examination of our U.S. federal tax returns for 2003 and 2004. This report contained a proposed tax assessment for these tax years of approximately $163,000 and an adjustment to net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. We have accepted and signed the auditors’ report to close the examination.

ITEM 2. 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 our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Form 10-Q, and with our management’s discussion and analysis included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, being filed concurrently with the Securities Exchange Commission.

The information below has been adjusted to reflect the restatement of our financial results which is more fully described in Note 2, “Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws that relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “intend,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Such statements are only predictions. Risks and uncertainties and the occurrence of other events could cause actual results to differ materially from these predictions. The factors discussed below in Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company and its business. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, we assume no responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these statements. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this report or to conform these statements to actual results.

Overview

Table of Contents

On April 5, 2007, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with EMB Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and EMBT Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), and the Company will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Thoma Cressey Bravo, Inc. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Shares”), other than Shares owned by (i) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) Parent or (iii) any stockholders who are entitled to and who properly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law, will be automatically converted into the right to receive $7.20 in cash per share, without interest. The consummation of the Merger is subject, among other things, to the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the stockholders of the Company. The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2007.

Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. is a leading provider of strategic data management solutions that help companies to improve the availability, integrity, accessibility, and security of corporate data. We earn revenues from the worldwide sale of these software solutions and related maintenance and support services to corporations, government agencies, educational institutions, and other entities. Information technology (IT) budgets, as well as macroeconomic conditions, affect demand for our products. In addition, our sales are impacted by competitive conditions, market acceptance of our product offerings, and our ability to execute our sales plans successfully. We have historically derived a significant percentage of our revenues from our DBArtisan product line, which was 40% of our license revenue in fiscal 2006 and 39% of our license revenue in fiscal 2005. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the DBArtisan product line accounted for 40% and 32% of our license revenues, respectively. This product line is expected to continue to account for a significant portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. As a result of this revenue concentration, our business could be harmed by a decline in demand for this product or its related product line.

In the first half of the year 2006, we experienced growth in total revenues due to improvements in the international sector. However, in the second half of the year 2006, total revenues remained flat, with a decline in license revenues offset by an increase in maintenance revenues. In the first quarter of 2007, total revenues decreased due to lower worldwide license revenues resulting from a reduction in the number of large enterprise-type transactions, which was partially offset by an increase in maintenance revenues.

Most of our operating expenses are related to personnel and related overhead costs, facilities, outside research and development contractors, and legal and other professional service costs. Our operating expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were $13.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively. Included in our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, were charges of $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for stock-based compensation.

Our cash flow from operations was approximately $3.3 million and $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $74.3 million and $71.2 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Our license and maintenance revenues, results of operations, cash flows from operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected in future periods by a renewed downturn in global economic conditions, increased competitive pressures or our own inability to execute on our sales plans.

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

This Form 10-Q contains the restated consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as a result of an independent review of the Company’s historical stock option practices and related accounting that was conducted by a Special Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, as well as for sales tax liability expense adjustments for prior periods. In the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, being filed concurrently with the SEC (the “2006 Form 10-K”), the Company is restating its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated

 

19


Table of Contents

statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The 2006 Form 10-K will also reflect the restatement of “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” in Item 6 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, and 2002. In addition, the Company is restating its unaudited quarterly financial information and financial statements for interim periods of 2005 and unaudited condensed financial statements for the first two quarters of 2006.

Previously filed annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatements have not been amended and, as such, should not be relied upon. On December 18, 2006, we issued a press release announcing that, although we had not yet concluded which specific periods would require restatement, the Audit Committee of our Board had concluded that our previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon.

Cost of Restatement and Legal Activities

We incurred legal and other professional expenses related to the restatement in the first quarter of 2007 of approximately $2.2 million. We expect to incur significant expenses at a similar level in the second quarter of 2007 in connection with the review and restatement, which would adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows in the period incurred.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts and returns, capitalized software development costs, lease related impairment loss, goodwill impairment, accounting for income taxes, and accounting for stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Although actual results have historically been reasonably consistent with management’s expectations, the actual results may differ from these estimates or our estimates may be affected by different assumptions or conditions.

We believe there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2007 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, being filed concurrently with Securities and Exchange Commission unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Total Revenues. Total revenues were $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of 8.6% from the $14.5 million reported for the comparable period in 2006. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in license revenues in the first quarter of 2007 as a result of lower average transaction size across each of our geographical markets.

Table of Contents

License. License revenues were $4.8 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, representing a 27.9 % decrease. The decrease in license revenues was primarily attributable to the weakness in closure of larger license sales transactions and our continuing emphasis on core products in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006. Due to the shortfall in the first quarter of 2007, we expect license revenues to decrease in 2007. Future license revenues cannot be predicted and will vary based on IT spending, competitive conditions, varying revenue contribution from our international operations, and changes in the sales closure rates in North America.

Maintenance. Maintenance revenues were $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, representing a 7.5% increase over the $7.9 million reported for the comparable period in 2006. Maintenance revenues vary with license revenue growth and maintenance renewal rates. Maintenance revenues increased primarily due to our sustainable renewal rates and the continued growth of our installed base. As a result of this trend, we expect maintenance revenues to continue to increase compared to prior periods.

License. Cost of license revenues consists primarily of OEM royalties, credit card processing fees and product media and packaging. Cost of license revenues was $154,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $137,000 for the comparable period in 2006. The 12.4% increase is due to the higher royalty expense in the first quarter in 2007 compared to 2006.

Amortization of acquired technology and capitalized software. This amortization expense relates to licensed technologies acquired from third parties that were deemed to have reached technological feasibility at the date of acquisition and therefore capitalized, as well as capitalized internal development costs for software that have reached technological feasibility. The amortization of acquired technology and capitalized software was $199,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The amortization remained constant as the existing capitalized intangible assets are being amortized over their remaining useful life. We expect amortization to remain at this level through the balance of 2007.

Maintenance. Cost of maintenance revenues primarily consists of customer support personnel and related expenses, including payroll, employee benefits and allocated overhead. Cost of maintenance revenues was $570,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to $650,000 for the comparable period in 2006. The 12.3% decrease in the three month period is due to lower headcount and reduced professional services fees. We expect cost of maintenance to remain consistent as a percentage of maintenance revenues.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses primarily consist of personnel and related expenses, including payroll and employee benefits, allocated overhead, and non-cash stock-based compensation, as well as expenses related to third-party development services. Research and development expenses were $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $4.7 million for the comparable period in 2006. The 25.3% decrease was primarily due to a decrease in headcount in North America as well as lower third-party development costs, partially offset the expansion of the Romania development center.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related expenses, commissions earned by sales personnel, non-cash stock-based compensation, trade shows, travel and other marketing communication costs, including advertising and other marketing programs. Sales and marketing expenses were $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $6.2 million for the comparable period in 2006. The 28.4% decrease was mainly due to lower salaries from a reduction in headcount and lower commissions as a result of the reduced license revenues, as well as reduced spending in marketing programs in the first quarter of 2007.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel and related expenses, general operating expenses and non-cash stock-based compensation. General and administrative expenses were $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $2.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. The 113.9% increase was primarily due to $2.2 million in legal and accounting costs related to the stock option review and restatement. The remaining increases were from increases in other legal and professional services fees and recruiting fees.

Other Income, net. Other income, net, consists primarily of interest income and was $605,000 and $439,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase was due to an increase in the average balance of our cash balance throughout the periods and a corresponding increase in interest rates over the period.

Provision for Income Taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS No. 109”), deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis 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. SFAS No. 109 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. The provision for income taxes was $15,000 and $340,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The estimated effective tax rate provision rates for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was (11.3)% and 38.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three-month period in 2007 as compared to 2006 was primarily due to a pre-tax loss for the three-month period in 2007 and the IRS audit settlement and tax related interest treated as discrete items in the three month period ended March 31, 2007.

On January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). Under FIN 48, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on income tax expense must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely-than-not to be sustained. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. As a result, we increased our reserves for uncertain tax positions by $0.2 million including interest and penalties as a cumulative adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, we had approximately $2.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits, $1.8 million of which would affect our income tax expense if recognized and the remaining balance of the unrecognized tax benefits would be an adjustment to goodwill.

Table of Contents

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of January 1, 2007, we had approximately $0.1 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

We and our subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years prior to 2003. An IRS examination of 2003 and 2004 has concluded in April 2007. For state tax matters, we are no longer subject to examinations for years prior to 2002 for California purposes, and for years prior to 2003 for other states for which tax returns have been filed. Foreign income tax matters for most foreign jurisdictions have been concluded for years through 2001, except for the United Kingdom, which have been concluded for years through 2003. The Company has not been under an examination by any state or foreign jurisdictions.

We had net deferred tax assets totaling $5.3 million as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. We believe that these net assets will be realizable in the future. As of December 31, 2006, we had federal and state net operating loss carry forwards (“NOLs”) of approximately $3.8 million and $6.8 million, respectively. These NOLs can be carried forward to offset future taxable income, if any. The federal and state NOLs expire in 2017 through 2025, if not utilized. As of December 31, 2006, we had federal, state and foreign research and development credits of approximately $992,000, $190,000 and $1.8 million, respectively. The federal credits expire in 2008 through 2026. The state credits and foreign credits do not expire. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the amount of benefits from NOLs and tax credits available to us is limited.

We will continue to evaluate our ability to realize deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and our deferred tax assets and liabilities. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to adjust the effective rate for the current year.

In April 2007, we received a final report from auditors for the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to the IRS examination of our U.S. federal tax returns for 2003 and 2004. This report contained a proposed tax assessment for these tax years of approximately $163,000 and an adjustment to net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. We have accepted and signed the auditors’ report to close the examination.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measures” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), expands disclosures about fair value measurements, and applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. However, the FASB anticipates that for some entities, the application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have funded our business to date principally from cash generated by our operations and financings. As of March 31, 2007, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $74.3 million.

   $ 3,257     $ 4,511
              

Our primary source of operating cash flows is the collection of accounts receivable from our customers. We measure the effectiveness of our collection efforts by various indicators, including an analysis of average accounts receivable daily sales outstanding (DSO). Our DSO for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was 53 days and 49 days, respectively. Collection of accounts receivable and related DSO could fluctuate in future periods due to the timing and amount of our revenues and the effectiveness of our collection efforts. In the future, collections could also fluctuate based upon the payment terms we extend to our customers, which to date, have typically been net thirty days.

The non-cash adjustments include depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets, as well as stock-based compensation. These non-cash adjustments may increase or decrease and, as a result, positively or negatively impact our future operating results, but they will not have a corresponding impact on our cash flows. The decrease in non-cash adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was mainly due to a decrease of $530,000 in stock-based compensation expense and a $92,000 decrease in depreciation and amortization.

The increase in operating assets during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable change of $1,287,000. The increase in operating liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was primarily due to an increase in the changes to accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $444,000 and $636,000 decrease in deferred revenue change.

Our operating cash flows may be impacted in the future by the timing of payments to our vendors for accounts payable. We typically pay our vendors and service providers in accordance with their invoice terms and conditions. The timing of cash payments in future periods will be impacted by the nature of accounts payable arrangements and management’s assessment of our cash inflows.

The main use of cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was the purchase of short-term marketable securities for investment purposes. Consistent with our historical investment practices we intend to invest in high quality short-term investments.

Included in cash used in investing activities were purchases of property and equipment. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, purchases of property and equipment were $165,000 and $240,000, respectively.

The primary component of cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was a capital lease principal payment. In the same period in 2006, options to purchase approximately 37,000 shares of common stock were exercised for total proceeds of $210,000. Our future liquidity and capital resources could be impacted by the cash proceeds we receive upon exercise of employee stock options. We cannot estimate the amount of such proceeds in the future. The timing of any future repurchases and the price paid for the shares could have a material impact on our liquidity.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations consist of facility lease commitments, operating leases for office equipment, and capital leases for property and equipment. In April 2004, we announced a restructuring plan, and, as a part of that plan, we entered into a new five-year lease commitment and subleased the remainder of our long-term San Francisco office leases.

Table of Contents

In September 2004, we entered into a $499,000 three-year capital lease agreement with a financial institution to finance the acquisition of certain furniture and fixtures and computer equipment. The capital lease agreement bears interest of 6.1% per annum and has a $1 buyout at its expiration in September 2007. It is likely we will enter into additional capital lease arrangements as long as interest rates remain attractive.

Gross lease payment and related obligations under the non-cancelable operating and capital leases as of March 31, 2007 are as follows (in thousands):

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to finance our operations through at least the next 18 months. If we fail to generate cash flow from operations in the future due to an unexpected decline in revenues or due to a sustained increase in cash expenditures in excess of revenues generated, our cash balances may not be sufficient to fund continuing operations without obtaining additional financing. If additional financing is needed, such financing may not be available to us on reasonable business terms, or at all.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates primarily relates to our investment portfolio, which at March 31, 2007 included auction rate securities with a fair value of approximately $54.0 million. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. From time to time, some of the securities in which we invest may be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate. For example, if we hold a security that was issued with an interest rate fixed at the then-prevailing rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the principal amount of our investment will probably decline. To minimize this risk in the future, we intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents, marketable securities in money market funds, tax-exempt municipal auction rate securities and tax exempt municipal bonds. The risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is limited to our investment portfolio. Based on our portfolio as of March 31, 2007, if interest rates were to change by 10%, interest income could be impacted positively or negatively by approximately $190,000 on an annualized basis. There would be no material impact on the fair market value of the portfolio. As of March 31, 2007, all of our investments were in tax-exempt municipal auction rate securities.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Our operations are conducted primarily in the United States and are denominated in United States dollars. A less than 10% portion of our gross revenue has originated from our European subsidiary and is denominated in Pounds Sterling. With respect to such sales, revenues are collected and operating expenses are generally paid in Pounds Sterling. Accordingly, we are exposed to volatility in sales and earnings within Europe due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

 

27


Table of Contents

Our exposure to foreign exchange risk is related to the magnitude of foreign net profits and losses denominated in Pounds Sterling, as well as our net position of monetary assets and monetary liabilities in Pounds Sterling. These exposures have the potential to produce either gains or losses within our consolidated results.

In addition, our European operations in some instances act as a natural hedge because both operating expenses and sales are denominated in local currency. In these instances, although an unfavorable change in the exchange rate of Pounds Sterling against the U.S. dollar will result in lower sales when translated to U.S. dollars, operating expenses will also be lower.

Our international business is subject to risks, including, but not limited to changing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility when compared to the United States. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.

We believe an immediate increase of 10% in the exchange rates of the U.S. dollar to the Pound Sterling may have a material impact on our operating results or cash flows. For example, in 2004 the Pound Sterling exchange rate strengthened by approximately 12% over 2003, which improved earnings per share by approximately $0.01.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2007, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The controls evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Financial Officer, who, for purposes of this evaluation has been designated as our principal executive officer following the January 2007 resignation of Stephen R. Wong, our former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under SEC rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we cannot be certain that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on the evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management, including our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2007.

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which is being filed concurrently with the SEC (the “2006 Form 10-K”), our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2006 due to a material weakness in our control environment, as more fully described in “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures,” in the 2006 Form 10-K. During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we continued to take steps to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting. Steps taken during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 included the following:

 

   

In January 2007, our Board of Directors put in place a process for weekly meetings between the Company’s Management Oversight Committee and Raj Sabhlok, the Company’s Senior Vice President of Operations. The Board also restricted Mr. Sabhlok’s ability to undertake any material decisions affecting the general management, business or operations of the Company, particularly in respect of employment and compensation matters as well as his authority to bind the Company contractually. Subsequently, on May 23, 2007, the Board determined that Mr. Sabhlok should either resign or be terminated upon the earlier of the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on April 5, 2007 with EMB Holding Corp. and EMBT Merger Corp. or July 16, 2007, in the event that the proposed merger has not been consummated by that date.

 

   

Our Board of Directors and management have re-committed to achieving transparency through effective corporate governance, a strong control environment, the standards reflected in our Code of Conduct, and financial reporting and disclosure completeness and integrity.

 

   

Members of the Compensation Committee have re-familiarized themselves with the terms of the Company’s stock option plans, and finance and human resources personnel will receive training on the Company’s option plans and the applicable accounting rules relating thereto.

 

28


Table of Contents

Additionally, management is investing in ongoing efforts to continuously improve the control environment and has committed valuable resources to the continuous improvement of the design, implementation, documentation testing and monitoring of our internal controls.

As a result of these actions and other previously disclosed measures, we believe that we have enhanced our internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2007, and our management has concluded that our enhanced internal controls were effective as of March 31, 2007.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes described above, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We may be named as a defendant in additional securities litigation or derivative lawsuits by current or former stockholders based on the restated financial statements. Further, we may be subject to claims relating to adverse tax consequences with respect to stock options covered by the restatement. Defending against potential claims would likely require significant attention and resources of management and could result in significant legal expenses.

From time to time, we may also become a party to other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. We may also be indirectly affected by administrative or court proceedings or actions in which we are not involved but which have general applicability.
